The Blyth Standard, 1966-02-09, Page 1'HE BLYTH ST X2,50 A Year In Advance •— $3,50 In U.S.A. BLYTH, ONTARIO — WEDNESDAY, FEB. 9, 1966 Ice (arnival Featured Interesting Entertainment A fairly good crowd attended the Lions Club Ice carnival in the arena last Friday evening and witnessed a very entertaining show, A host of children partici- pated and if enthusiasm was any indication, thoroughly enjoyed the evening. Several Lions were dressed in clown suis and their display of tom foolery added greatly to the evening. Of special interest was the daring act of "Warner the Great," tvho defied possible death by "jumping?" through a flaming hoop. On his first, attempt he made the leap the hard way, with- out feet touching the ice after clearing the hoop. Undaunted by his first effort, "the king of the iceways" gathered himself up for a second attempt. With the finess and agility of a CPR freight train, he approached the ring of fire, but several feet from the intended death defying leap, a broken egg thrown by a dis- enchanted spectator accomplished its purpose and "Warner The Great" ended his act with a great and glorious slide into the burn- ing hoop. Though the jump was unsuccessful, the complete disre- gard for his life caught the fancy of the crowd and proved extreme- ly 'entertaining. Following the carnival the Lions and the Blyth Girls Broom - ball Team entertained with a dazzling display of-broomball, Prize winners were as follows: Fancy dress costume for public school children: Sherrie Plaetzer, Debbie Hicks, Best fancy dress costume for children' under school age, Fran- ces Campbell, Heather Pengelly.

"Brazil was discovered by the • Portuguese so therefore theirs is the prevailing language" but there Is a great lack of under- standing between North America and South America, "In South America there is a great mixture of the races but no discrimina- tion," Brazil is rich In resources. Three quarters of their popula- tion live within 100 miles of the sea, this leaving the interior un- inhabited.

It isn't the work that's killing me; it's me aftevhours stuff, in a typical week, Last Monday, after work, I wrote my column, then spent five hours studying an essay by C. S. Lewis, concisely called and Wrong as a Clue to _ce Meaning of the Universe," selling that one to a girl w.vhese chief worry is her hair -do, or to a boy who can hardly wait to. last bell to ring, so that he can streak for the poolroom. Tuesday night I went curling. .'first time this year. Next morn- ing, I felt 112 years old when I crawled out of the sack. My muscles worked only in fits and starts. Wednesday afternoon, rushed to matinee to see movie of Mac- beth, Sat with doe -eyed female English teacher. Later told ,my daughter I'd held hands with her throughout the show. Daugh- ter furious. Wednesday night, a two-hour meeting of our staff's General Futility Committee. Thursday afternoon, a two- hour drive to the city, through a swirling snow -storm with Kim, her last (halleluiah!) visit to the orthodontist. Five years and 700 dollars after it all began the kid has straight teeth. Two more hours home, the transport 'trucks giving us " a mud -bath about every two miles. But we hacl a jolly conversation, in the cozy car, in the black night, in the white wilderness. Talked about four-letter words, their origin and their fascination, We agree they were ugly but powerful. Not the dirty ones. They reveal merely a limited vo- cabulary. But such epithets as slop, drab, slob, clot, punk, jerk, fink, have a certain horrible charm, Friday night is relax night, the week over. I curled again, and later got into a session, one of those "Kids don't know how lucky they are today" sessions with some other creaky relics of the Depression. 1 also got hell SuGAx and SPICE By Bill Smiley when I got home. But not to worry, Tomorrow I could sleep in. Tomorrow arrived, about 30 winks later, and the Qld Girl, still a bit owly, informed that she wasn't up to driving the kid to the city for music lesson, I was thrust into the snow and ice, She slept in. Hugh was to come home with us, for a weekend's skiing. He didn't show up at the rendezvous. We went to his men's residence. Nobody had seen him since eight o'clock the night before,- With some faint hope that he's either, eloped or been kidnapped, Kim and I struck out for the long, dreary drive home. Momma is all rested up, and informs me that we're going out to spend the evening with some new friends, Groan. It was exhi- larating but exhausting, four of us talking at once, Left at 3 a.m., clutching a delicious- home- made coffee cake, Sunday was church, curling in the afternoon, and a special treat in the evening — dress rehearsal for an annual pageant in the church. I am in charge of round- ing up sufficent bodies, of the right size and shape. Have you ever tried to deliver 25 reluctant teenage boys to a church on a Sunday evening, in this day and age? Don't, St. Joseph had sprained his ankle, skiing, and couldn't make it. St, Peter had the flu. St. An- drew just didn't bother showing up. St. Thomas had to go out of town with the bantam hockey team. St. Paul thought the re- hersal was next week. The shep- herds have lost their crooks. The three wise men are two dopey kids who want to get home and watch Bonanza. Judas is sore because he's just learned he's the villain in the piece. And you grope off to work in the dark Monday morning. And you have a rough day. And you come home and look at the mail; two whopping insurance premiums, a fuel bill that makes you want to run for the nearest travel agency, and a notice from the bank that your account- is overdrawn, Oh well, it's a great life if you don't die from sheer living. imailuullmlllullthilimuu11m1I1111111111Iiimu1II11 im mllmluullm111IIlImImIIIW11u11uullmluumulmlllmluolllillllllll@g11111111Um11111 1110uiudiumuW ithig Antnn LTurcLe THE UNITED CHURCH OF CANADA Blyth, Ontario, Rev.

TV watchers in Toronto and districts surrounding the city are complaining that Channel 2 and 4 in Buffalo will have interference because of Channel 3 being mov- ed into Toronto. For those who have sets that are not properly tuned, and there are thousands; for those who have antennas that are not in correct working order, and there are thousands; there will be prgb- lems. There will be thousands of unhappy viewers, Can we blame the televisions industry, the B.B.G., the Govern- ment, the Buffalo stations, the owners of the Barrie station, the CBC, or the viewers? This prob- lem can he argued many ways and there is n_ o sense and certain- ly not space to deal with all as- pects of the issue, It has already bit the floor of the House of Commons. It will become a hot major issue and if the move of Channel 3 is approv- ed, it will certainly become an election issue, It doesn't seem fair to have a Federal election concerning ope issue involving the capitol of one province. But, if this happens, candidates from the entire Do- minion will use broadcasting in general as the biggest political issue in our time, Broadcasting has been misun- derstood, mishandled, mismanag- ed, misused, misgoverned, mis- guided misinterpreted, misjudg- ed, mislead and misrepresented by a mishmash of unqaulified misfitted morons since 1936 When the Broadcasting Act was amended, God, grant us a sensible broad- casting act.

'Today in an interview on White Cane Week, sponsored by his organiza- tion and The Canadian Council of the Blind, he reminded readers that eye accidents are high on the list of the causes of blindness and spoil perfect vision for hun- dreds of children every year. He explained that toys, like fireworks and bows and arrows, frequently send a youngster to the hospital with a damaged eye. He told two true incidents that happened to small boys. The lads were playing cops and rob- bers with the neighbourhood gang and a general free-for-all was taking place, A friendly ene- my threw a stone. One youngster was wearing glasses. The other was not, When the stone struck the glasses, it knocked the fram- es hard against the lad's eyes but the glasses did not break -- they were safety lenses. In the other case, the stone struck the young- ster's naked eye and damaged the sight beyond restoration. Sympathetic causes affected his second eye and the boy became totally blind within a year. The Field Secretary urged par- ents to consider safety lenses for children who need glasses and to teach the boys and girls to ap- preciate the importance of see- ing. "If they realize that once in- jured an eye cannot he replaced, they will be more careful with BB guns and air rifles, They will carry knives and scissors with the points downward and devel- op a watchful attitude with all sharp tools and instruments." He reminded us that one way to show appreciation of our eye - 'Y' ORITUARIES Y Y• RUSSEL KING Funeral services were held last Thursday for Russel King who passed away suddenly on 'Tues• day morning at his home in Au- burn, Ile was in his 71st year and was the son of the late Albert King and Annie Lawlor, and was born in this district. lie served in the ililst battalion overseas in World War I, 191-1918.

CHOOSING OUR EMBLEM TIIE MAPLE LEAF !iE111'8!!'Ili!'lll!!111!1191!IIIIIIIIIII!Illll11s1,. Busily working; like two little bees, Two little beavers were cutting down trees, And these little beavers were fond of work, At least they had never been known to shirk. Said one little chap as they paused to rest, "What emblem, for our land, would you think best?" "Let me consider," the other one said, As he turned to one side his wise little head. "Let me see, let ore see, well I believe," And he mopped up his brow with his furry brown sleeve. "Yes brother," he said, "It is quite my belief, That nothing would equal the Maple Leaf." Chorus Oh the Maple Leaf, yes the Maple Leaf We'll have no other than that grand old leaf, For our King and Country it stands always, For justice and truth may it stand for aye. "Splendid idea, "the other one said, "We'll settle it all ere we go to our bed. Yes we'll take the leaf of that dear old tree, Which yields the sweet sap so rich and free, And so over all the wide world they know That we are Canadians where e'er we go, We sit on the branch now, but don't go to sleep, While I get my kodak, the picture to keep," Thus it was settled; now everyone knows Jack Cannuk is a beaver where ever he goes, And of all our dear emblems this one is the chief, The beaver upholding the Maple Leaf.
