Ontario Let Henry do it. . School bus driver Henry La- rouche doesn't believe in getting emotional about litterbugs and their trail of garbage. "A lot of people are getting emotional," he says, not too many are doing anything." But he's doing something with a group of Brampton children— their parents and neightp,rs refer to them fondly as Brampton's Little Litter Patrol "We decided to do something and we hope that other people will get the habit," Henry says. "We are just plain citizens doing our bit." Five youngsters form the faith- ful nucleus of the litter patrol— there are others who work regu- larly. But wherever they go, other children watch the fun, then dig in and lend a hand. At Brampton's annual flower festival, he had free midway ride tickets for his young helpers in recognition of their efforts to keep the grounds clean. When other children saw the free tickets, they set to work too. "Pretty soon there.were 50 kids running around cleaning lip and there wasn't enough litter to go WINNERS Of THE Harley 'Crawford Trophy at the women's bonspiel last Wednesday were Ruth Oriefrtead; Joyce -'Hodgins, second; Nora'Finnigan, vice; and Nona Elliott, skip.

"It's not unusual for the chil- dren to get rewards for their _work, but already some of them are turning down the rewards," he says. , One of then big cleanup jobs is `the patrolling a section of Claire- ville Conservation Area, a heav- ily used ,centre operated by the Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority. THIS RINK FROM Brussels had an enjoyable day competing in the Harley Crawford bon - spiel last Wednesday and with action on the ice ended, Dorothy McDonald, lead; Nora Stephenson, vice; and Aileen Mutter, second; are seen with skip Donelda Pearson (Seated) . —Staff Photo. The patrol cleans up a section each Monday morning before the conservation area opens to the 'public at 10 a.m. They have found the answer to the rising tide of paper, bottles, cans and trash cast aside to de- face our parks, cities and coun- tryside—Just bend ove"'an'd pick it up.
