"We have many new lines of entertainment for both young and old, and everyone should have an enjoyable time."

Starting at 5 p.m. Friday afternoon, spare -ribs and sausage with sauerkraut will be served to any wishing to enjoy the tasty German dishes. At 8 p.m. something new for area sports enthusiasts will take place at the park when a soccer match is scheduled between Ailsa Craig and Dashwood. In the new picnic pavilion which has just been completed, a Talent Show will be taking place at the same time. A great deal of interest is being shown in this event, and regis- trations will be accepted up until show time from any inter- ested competitors. Jack Riddell, Huron MPP, is in charge of the Talent Show, and will also accept any late registrations for the new feature. The large midway swings into operation again on Saturday at 12 o'clock noon, and meals will again be served throughout the day. An all -afternoon horseshoe tournament will get under way at one o'clock, and then at 2 p.m. the monster parade is scheduled to take off and wind it's way down the main streets of the village. Mr. Riddell told the Citizens News that the parade this year promises to be much better than ever before, with many new entries already received, At 3 p.m. a softball game between Corbett and Zurich Peewees will begin at the ball park. From 4 to 4:30 p.m. registration will take place for the arm wrestling contests, and the preliminaries begin at 4:30. Five o'clock will see the first round of tug-of-war, in which the Shipka Bulldogs will be attempting to retain the champ- ionship they won last year. Six teams are entered in this comp- etition. Seven o'clock in the evening will see the finals in both the arm wrestling and tug-of-war competitions. A softball game between Mt. Carmel and the Zurich Pontiacs at 8 p. m, will round out the day's sporting activities. The final wind-up of the two- day event will get under way with a monster dance in the new picnic pavilion, at 9 p.m. The Ken Scott orchestra will supply the music for this part of the program. For those who like to partake, a pub will be in operation throughout most of the two- day celebration. Good German food, however, will be the highlight of the annual event. OUR APOLOGIES Last week the Citizens News carried a story about the statue of Brother Andre which has been erected at St. Joseph, and credit for writing the story was attached to Monsignor W. Bour- deau. It should have been expl- ained, however, that the story was written by Monsignor Bour- deau in the French language only, and the translation to English was not completed by him. We are sorry if this error on our part caused any embarr- assment to anyone. Advice on vacation pay The following information is offered to assist students and part-time help, including those who work Saturdays only or a few days each month, in under- standing their entitlement to vacation pay under Employ- ment Standards Legislation. An employee accrues Vacatior Pay at two percent of total pay from the first day of employ- ment. At the end of twelve months service, he is entitled to 2 per cent of total pay - one weeks time off. From the 13th month of serv- ice, vacation pay accrues at 4 per cent of total pay. Therefore an employee is entitled to a two week vacation at the end of twenty-four months of service calculated as 4 per cent of total pay received during the second year. On termination of employ- ment, caused by either an employee leaving or being rel- eased by an employer, vacation pay is to be paid on the last day of work or within seven days thereafter. Students or part-time employ- ees earn vacation pay in the same manner as any other empl- oyee.

The same cal- culation would apply to anyone working part-time each month - for instance a person who is employed for five days each month to type statements for a small firm. In determining "total pay," upon which vacation pay is based, an employer would cal- culate all wages given to an employee for work, including such things as hourly pay, sal- ary, shift premiums, overtime, incentive pay and commissions. Employees who do not work on a continuous basis but have completed twelve months of service during any period of three years are entitled to one weeks vacation at two per cent of total pay. The employer can decide when the employee can tal<e the cavation provided that it is given within ten months after the year for which the benefit was earned, Also fo an employee entitled to two weeks, an empl- (continued on page 14) LB 794 La 89; 39 PRODUCE LARGE HEAD LETTUCE 2/43 2 LBANBAGS CADA NO. 1 CARROTS 2 BAGS 59 LARGE WATERMELON U.S. NO1 EA $1.39 FROZEN FOODS itiPREME PEAS 2FOR 11 WEEKEND SPECIALS July 25, 26, 27, 28.
