November is dsually your last
chance :,to tidy up the garden,

specialist,' Ontario Ministry of

disease carry-over to next year
and makes spring gardening
easier.

Plante residues and dead
leaves can be removed and
deposited in a compost pile.
Edge flower and shrub borders
with a sharp spade and give gar-
dens a light raking to make
them look neater.
If you want to do some land-
scaping, there is still time. Trees
and shrubs can be planted until
the ground freezes solid. Recen-
tly planted evergreens should be
watered to prevent the foliage

'Tender plants, such as roses` and
-chrysanthemums, need winter
protection. Mums can be
inglched" with a 4 -inch layer of
peatmoss 'or clean straw. For
roses, draw soil around the base
of the bushes to 'a height of
several inches. When the ground
is frozen add straw, strawy
manure or leaves, then cover the
bushes with evergreens boughs..
The evergreens will trap snow,
giving the plants good natural
protection.
House plants that have
become pot-bound should be
repotted in larger containers.
Make sure the plants have
adequate drainage. If you plan
indoor .gardening this winter,
it's a good idea to prepare a
house plant soil mixture NOW.
Mix a few shovelsful of soil with
some compost and sand. Shred
or sift the mixture and store it in
a plastic bag until required.
It's a good idea to place lef-
tover fertilizer inside a plastic
bag to prevent hardening. Make
sure that all insecticides, her-
bicides or fungicides are locked
away, out of reach of children.

Nine Mile '(liver at Port Albert.
Tony was attempting to float on `
his back. when he drifted into -
deep water and went down. His
sister swam to his rescue but in
panic her younger brother grab -Q
bed her and both went down. In
-following attempts to drag Tony
to safety they both went under
five times.
Exhausted, Rita swam to
shallow water and yelled for
help, Kathy saw the difficulty
although others in the area
thought the screams to be a
4i
joke, and swam about 130 eet to
the approximate spot where ,the
boy had gone down.
She dove and . located the then
unconscious youth and dragged
him to shore where she applied
mouth to mouth resuscitation
until he revived.
Under the sponsorship of the
Catholic Wornen League from
Kingsbridge the presentations
were preceded by a program of
local talent and a filth on (ap-
propriately enough) water
safety.
Fate of Vanastra
facilties in question`
What is to become of the
recreation facilities now lying
dormant at Vanastra (the for-
mer Canadian Forces Base at
Clinton) has been the topic of
some discussion recently
climaxing with a tour of the
complex by Rene Brunelle,
Minister"' ce Social and Com-
munity Services.
Meanwhile the Huron Perth
Roman Catholic Separate
School Physical Education Con-
sultant John McCarroll has
found the Training Centre, on
the; old base of great use to the
RvC. S.3_. _Clinton,
The school has no gymnasium
of its own so the students from
grades five, six, seven and eight
with their teachers Mrs. Frances
Craig and Mrs. Margaret
Barkely found themselves with
more than ample space to carry
on simultaneously two classes of
physical education.
The grades five and six had a
lesson in creative movements
which stressed body awarehess
Co move not only •in various
directions, varieties of levels''and
at a cha rike Of speeds. "In-
dividuality
Individuality is also a paramount
concern as the children differ in
size and ability." Mr. McCarroll
explained..
The grades seven and eight
were preparing themselves for
volleyball skills with lead up ac-
tivities in learning the proper
techniques before playing the"
game.
Later, the junior group was
challengect-to climb over under
and between the climbing equip-
ment using the many parts of
their bodies while the seniors
were treated to a short game of
bowling in the eight lanes found
in this multi equipped
recreation centre..
Assisting in , this classroom
demonstration were: Jim Lin-
ton, program, director of Strat=
ford, Jahn 'Sheardown, a student -
at Conestoga College, Rick
Ellis, of Walkerton who i$
presently attending Conestoga
College, Andy Anderson of
Lucknow who is now attending
Stratford Teacher's College and
Jack Fades of Kitchener who is
also a student at Stratford
Teacher's College.
Following the demonstration's
at the gym, the instructors and
members of the press in atten—
dance were taken on a' tour of '
the various other facilities
-located at Vanastra.

recommends; exercise works
wonders to relieve dangerous
terision and weariness. When
pulling in to a .freeway',seryice
area, don't park as close to the
door as possible, but as far away
as possible, to ensure that

b�fb decay may
becured forever
Dental scientists are op-
timistic that complete control of
tooth decay can be a reality
within 10 - 20 years. One study
recently reported involves the
use of an enzyme called .dex-
tranese to control decay. The ex-
periment has yet to be conduc-
ted with humans.
This enzyme apparently at-
tacks a bacterial product
associated with decay. This
product is called dextran and is
involved in the forming of tar-
tar. Tartar ,sticks to the teeth,
irritating ,the gums and
providing a pest for bacteria
which produce the acids that at-
tack the teeth.
Scientists believe that the en-
zyme can destroy dextran,
causing tartar to break down
and. cause fewer cavities and
gum disease.
Several other studies involve

the use of multiple fluorides to
prevent decay. Fluorides have
been proven highly effective
against tooth,, decay. Countless
studies show that children who
have been drinking fluoridated
water since birth have as much
as 65% less decay than children
who do not receive the benefits
of fluoridation.
Fluoridated water, sup-
plemented by fluoride solutions
painted on the teeth and regular
brushing with a fluoride den-
tifrice, have slashed decay by up
to -90% . Use of these -techniques
has been gaining in popularity.
Recently a- special fluoride
treatment dentifrice became
available for brushing under
supervision on a mass scale by
children. These "brush ins" can
be used by farge groups of
people in maintaining good oral
health. G

subdued this week as students
and 'teachers prepare for the
exams. Some exams will be writ-
ten today (Thursday) but the ac-
tual exam timetable begins
tomorrow.
With everyone on individual
tin etables, the job of scheduling
exams for all the students isnot
an easy one. Most students
would rather write exams- now
in late November than just
before the Christmas holiday as
was the' case last year:
It is difficult to take part in
pre -Christmas festivities when
the thought of tomorrow's exam
lingers in your mind. According
to the comments of the student; A.
they `approve this change.

an impressive display in the
