Boardgrants special busing change by RON SHAW — The monthly meeting of Huron County Board of Education at Clinton last week passed a motion in favour of a delegation with re- gard to busing that was seen by at least some board members as a break from Board policy on the matter. Mr, and Mrs, Don Carter, who live on the outskirts of. Seaforth, were on hand at the meeting to appeal an.earlier decision by the Education Committee deny- ing their request to send their daughter to Kindergarten in Sea - forth this fall, The committee had acted against their request on the basis that Board policy places their residence in a zone designated to attend Brucefield school rather than the Seaforth school even though they are closer in Miles to the town school. The Carters, when explaining their case, showed the board that a Public School bus on its way into Seaforth passes their home each day. This bus they also pointed out picks up'a number of Separate School Children • under an agreement with the Board of Education as well as a Public School youngster who attends school in Seaforth, "It seems," Mrs. Carter noted, "that we should have just gone ahead and enrolled our child.in Seaforth without approaching the board, as the other family did, and nothing would have been said, We tock the proper course of action and are now being den- ied something that is in effect for the family who did notfollow that course," Board Chairman Bob Elliot admitted that such seemed to be the case. It was also pointed out to the. Board that the Kindergarten facil- ities at Brucefield were more crowded than at Seaforth and that if a -bus had to pick up the Carter child it would be forced . .to travel well.out of its way and extra -cost would be incurred due to the longer. distance. Following lengthy discussion on the matter the Board carried a motion on a 10-4 vote to rescend the motion taken earlier refusing the Carters permission to enroll their child a t Seaforth Public School, A further motion was then passed indicating that due to the circumstances, the numb- er of children already in Kinder- garten at Brucefield and the busin situation, the Carters would be permitted to send their child to Seaforth. It was stressed however that the ruling was effective for only this child, A number of Board members voted against the move on grounds that this would only be a first step toward completely destroying policy on where children shall attend school, Smile...

A new addition to this year's fair will be a craft show and sale, Booths will be available to area craftsmen to display and sell their products. The booths will rent for a nominal fee, The idea behind the show is to add another area of more int- erest to urban as well as rural fair -goers and to add more part- icipation to the fair. More in- formation on the show is avail- able through the Standard Office, Attempts are also being made to improve the fair parade this year. Two new classes for child- ren have been added including one for best decorated tricycle and one for the best costume. Both will in- volve kindergarten children. A bingo is planned for the even- ing in the arena while the hale show is going on outside, A new class was also added to the pet show this year to include the most unusual pet in the area. Area photographers will get a chance to show their achievement+ at this year's fair in a black and white photography contest, There will be two classes, one for pict- ures of human or animal subjects and one for scenery or unusual affect. The contest will be open to anyone living within an eight - mile radius of Blyth. Prizes will be donated by The Blyth Standard. Adrian Vos was present at the meeting to volunteer his services to help organize the barrow show at the fair, Mr. Vos is a director of the Huron County Pak Prod- ucers for East Wawanosh town- ship. A meeting is planned within two weeks to finalize listings for the prize list for the fair which will be held on Sept. 20. Trustees cautious about field trips by RON SHAW A request for permission to con- duct a field trip by the Outers Club at Exeter Secondary School ran into some opposition at Board of Education meeting last week with a number of Board members expressing concern fer the safety aspects of the venture which was to include canoeing on the Saug- een River, Cayley Hill expressed some con cern for the safety of those taking part pointing out that canoeing at best is a dangerous activity unless those involved are experienced and skilled. After some discussion most of the board members agreed with Mr, Hill. As a result Mr, Hill proposed a motion, which was passed, stat- ing the .trip could only take place if the student were instructed to wear life jackets and if the par- ents or guardians would sign waivers excluding the Board of Education from all responsibility. "Perhaps this will help the par- ents to realize the risk involved," he noted, It was also recommended that a board policy to this effect be drawn up and presented to the next meeting for passage. Two other field trips were approved at the meeting as well, An outing for Hullett Central School for a camping trip to Family Paradise near Walton was given the go agead and the annual field trip for biology students from Goderich District Collegiate Institute in the fall was approved. In similar business the board gave its approval to the recomm- endations of the sub committee on outdoor education by passing their suggestions in the form of a motion. Holiday hours set Dominion Day holiday will fall on Saturday this year, and will mean some changes in regular hours of business. Stores in Blyth will close on Saturday and be open on Mon- day as usual. The Blyth post office has announced that it will have no wicket or rural route service, and no mail will be received or dispatched on Saturday a on Monday. The Standard will be closed Monday to allow staff to enjoy the holiday with their families. Local donations help ,Fund The Campaign for the Canad- ian Cancer Society was held during the month of April. A remarkable increase in contributions received is report- ed. Many were the willing captains and volunteer can - Local strike activity I im ited Local strike action by unionized employees of Ontario Hydro has been confined to off hours. Supervisory staff have taken care of all but one trouble spot after ,hours since strike activity began last Wednesday, said Walter ;Palmer, area manager at Clinton. "In the one clearly defined em- ergency union members responded to our call for assistance through their steward" said Mr. Palmer. Hydro's transmission and distrib- ution systems have so far been un- affected by direct strike action al- though supervisory staff worked long hours last week to restore service after storms associated with hurricane Agnes swept the province. The Clinton staff totals 46, of which five are supervisory personnel. vassers, according to Alvin Beukema, campaign chairman. The district called "Clinton Unit" includes a rather large area. It includes the village of Auburn, the town of Blyth, almost all of Hullett town- ship, the town of Clinton, Goderich township South of the cut line, village of Bay- field, the Stanley township up to the Kippen-Drysdale line, and a corner of Tucker - smith township. In these different areas various groups canvassed. The readiness to go out and canvass their dis- trict is trict was heart-warming. The following groups, captains and individuals should be recog- nized. The village of Auburn headed by Mrs. T. Mills and others donated $144.40 The town of Blyth under Rev. C. L. Wittich and a dedicated Youth group raised --- •$342.75 The village of Londesboro led by Mrs. Frank Johnston and others gave $ 84,00 The township of Hallett led by Mrs. David Anderson and others raised 360.00 -- and Mr. Ray Finch's group raised A119.00 In IN Time to Forget TruSCOtt Last week the Huron County Board of Education refused permiss- ion for "The Story of Steven Truscott" to be used in Huron Coun- ty schools. The Truscott murder trial took place 13 years ago, How long will residents of the area continue to shudder every time the name is mentioned? The Board of Education may have thought they were doing some- thing good when they refused to grant permission for the book to be used in Huron schools, but they may instead have prolonged the period of bitterness over the murder and the resulting bad ' publicity for the Clinton area, Anyone who has much to do with the town of Clinton knows this bitterness exists, The very mention of the Truscott name will raise hackles in the town. Recently a reporter from the Hamilton Spectator came to Clinton to do a story on the rehabil- itation of the former air base. The story that resulted occupied nearly two full pages in the large daily newspaper and contained a great deal of favourable publicity for the town. In one paragraph, however, the reporter mentioned the Truscott case and the black eye it had given the town. For several prominent citizens, the two pages of good publicity were forgotten and only the one par- agraph about Truscott remembered. One even threatened to see to it that the reporter was fired, Perhaps it is this defensive attitude on the part of many •1n the town that has led to the unprecidented publicity about the case. Outsiders inquiring about the case immediately run into a brick wall of suspicion and distrust, Most are told outright to go away and leave the town alone, Is it any wonder that under these circumstances outsiders feel the townspeople must be trying to hide something? If the school board and the people of the town really want to have the whole affair forgotten, they would be far better off to calm down and accept the incident as part of their past; some- thing to not exactly be proud of, but something not to get hyst- erical over either. If they continue to react in the present man- ner, the interest in the Truscott case will continue to survive for years to come, Governments should lead Canada and Ontario suffer from a lack of leadership on the part of their governments. Most governments in recent years have been happy to follow es- tablished trends rather than fight to improve our country. It wasn't always so. Sir John A. MacDonald, our first Prime Minist- ter, for instance defied the experts and built a railway through wilderness to the Pacific in the early life of our country because he felt it was necessary for the development of the nation. He was proven right because people followed the railway and the y p countrrospered, From then until Prime Minister Trudeau announced projects to open the North, few politicians have taken steps to provide services to an area before the people are there to use them. Take the matter of development in Ontario. Nearly all govern- ment money for airports, roads and railways is being poured into a handful of large centres. The government helps Toronto cont- inue to grow by supplying major highways, subways and comm- uter trains, These same items are making it easier for business and industry to locate in Toronto rather than locate in areas more remote in the province. The irony is that the rest of us are sub- sidizing our own economic death by helping to pay for better ser- vices to large cities. The government is being very shcrt-sighted. It is known that large cities create economic as well as socialogical problems. The more the cities grow, the more services they need just to keep from strangling The more services supplied, the more the city grows. Estimates show that at the present rate most of the people in the province will soon live in a few large centres. The government seems to be caught up in "the big is better, biggest is best" philosophy which one day will lead to enormous problems in Ontario. If, instead of plunging more and more money into the large cities, they would show enough imaginat- ion to provide better services to northern Ontario or western Ont- ario they could help us and the whole province in the long run by decentralizing our economy and taking the pressure of growth of the cities allowing them to concentrate on improving their way of life rather than fighting to just keep up with their needs in housing and services. If we had a true leader around like Sir John A. MacDonald, we might have better transportation into'our area from the cities or better roads and railways in the northern part of the province. But we haven't, and so we face the problem of large cities gett- ing larger and more and more people being forced to live in an environment they don't like. How much longer can we afford to wait for a real leader before we get into serious trouble? Letter to the editor Dear Sir: - My cousin Mrs. George Pollard of Blyth gave me a subscription to your paper --- a •birthday gift, I am enjoying every issue, and especially the first' issue early in May. -- Your editorial on "Small towns vs. Big Cities". Warren is in Metropolitan De- troit, and the 3rd City in Mich- igan. It is so nice to read your paper with - no murders cr dead policemen - which is standard day-to-day news in , Detroit, and I am sure you can walk safely on your streets, -- We can't, My father came to Blyth in 1850, and to De- troit in 1890. We know Detroit small and large, So for real living, --- small towns have much to offer, and your well written paper is 'Tope!. Sincerely, Irene E. Cockerline, Tree over the brook m rnywi000w 0r11! After all the fuss 1 made about my birthday being forgotten in March, it was little wonder that my family went all out on Moth- er's Day in May. Mother's Day isn't considered very important by a great many people who hate commercialism, --- and it is absolutely true that in a great many instances, moth- ers are only remembered to keep peace in the family. Normally, my family isn't too hung up on Mother's Day either, It is most often just a card and a, simple little remembrance for me on Mother's Day, --- but that doesn't really matter. It is the thought that counts after all, This Mother's Day, however, I was Queen for a Day, ---- and the nicest, most thoughtful gift in the whole world waited for me in my kitchen, -- You guessed it. A fully automatic, totally dependable dishwasher. I guess I've wanted a dishwasher for as long as I've been washing dishes. But like every dutiful wife who knows her husband can't afford all the luxuries of life! I've- put the idea of a dishwasher in the very back of my mind, I used to make those cute little remarks you usually hear connect- ed with dishwashers, --- like ---- "My children do the dishes now. It is good for them to have some- thing to do" ---- and --- "It is almost as much work to get the dishes ready to put into the dish- washer as it is to wash them. I can't really see the sense in a dishwasher" --- and --- "I like to get right up from the table and get the dishes done, I wouldn't like to see them sitting around in a dishwasher until I had a full load". Well, I am now the proud owner of a dishwasher, and I can tell you ladies --- a dishwasher is absolutely wonderful, Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. I fooled myself for a long time into thinking my children did most of the dishes at our house, Have you teenaged children in your household? Then you'll know how really ludicrous it is to expect them to be in charge of dishwashing, If your children are anything like my children, they are too busy for dishwashing, - -- and it is usually nioni and dad who get roped into that little chore, Somehow, activities for teen- agers all commence about 7:00 p, m, in the evening. That's dish- washing hour at the Keller house, - -- and there's not a chance that dishwashing will win out over track and field practice or band rehearsal. Experts in child psychology will tell you that children need to have dishwashing experience. They say that most of the conver- sation.in the modern family takes place during the dishwashing hour and with the advent of the dish- washer, the last remaining bond between children and parents has been removed. • That's hogwash, I find that while the dishwasher is working happily away in the kitchen, I can sit down with the children for a last few minutes before they dash madly out of the house and have - a relaxed conversation that isn't punctuated by the scraping of burned -on spaghetti. And that's the hangup with my dishwasher, Believe it or not, I f Thyth• find it difficult to select an hour to wash my dishes when somebody is in the house to guard the dish- washer, That may sound strange to you if you reside in a household where mother and father work from 8 to 5, --- or from 9 to 4,. --- or whatever. But at our abode, my husband and I are often on the go from sunrise to sunset, --- and longer. With the kids busy too, who's to mind the dishwasher? My family think I' m unduly alarmed about leaving the dish- washer alone to wash, rinse and dry on its own. They say I should trust this mechanical wonder to perform that work without a hitch, --- but I say a machine is only a machine and needs to have someone hovering around just in case something goes wrong. So it is true. The technological age brings new problems. It. must be a sign of the age, Not long ago, I had time to wash my dishes in the tried and proven time honored way, Now I haven't time once a day to attend my dishwasher, And you think you are busy.

The Wingham Club put on a millinery show, which featured Why Fish Don't Need Sun Glasses Sun glasses may bring com- fort to fishermen on bright days, but what can fish do about brilliant light?Unlike mammals and birds, fish lack eyelids to close, and they cer- tainly don't have sun glasses. Nor can they contract or ex- pand the irises • of their eyes to compensate for light con- ditions. The fact that fish usually, prefer shade is an indication that direct sunlight bothers them. This helps explain why during summer, when the sun's rays strike water at a more direct angle, the beat fishing usually occurs in early morning, late evening, or at night. Studies by fishing expert Red Fisher at Mercury out- boards indicate there is a re- lationship between the amount of .sunlight penetrating the water, and the way fish be- have. By understanding how fish react to sunlight, anglers can change their methods to suit conditions and have more success. Early in the year fish seek shade under docks, bridges overhanging ban, around large rocks and in similar places, allenerally in shal- low water. As a lake's water warms fish will move deeper where sunlight is diffused. How far down depends in part upon oxygen content. Remem- ber that, bass school in deep holes during the hottest' part of day in summer. • Another factor the Mercury fishing expert found impor- tant in selecting where to fish on bright _ days is the wind. Wave -chopped water breaks up the sun's _penetration, scat- tering and ffusing the bril- liant light. Fish, even the, choose . times such as this to come nearer the sur- face. Cloudy, windy summer days are often good times to fish in shallow water, styles of the hats of the future which were very practical, made out of such things as bedpans, chambers, bird nests, etc. Each of the hats represented a song with the chorus of 19 ladies . joining in the music melody. The Lions Club of Clinton set some games of chance in the craft room that proved very popular. Following the showing of slides on activities at Huron - view; and singsong, everyone gathered at the main dining room area for the picnic supper. Mrs, Couper of Hensall along with her class of six young peo- ple demonstrated spinning and weaving in several areas,of the home, on Thursday afternoon. Many of the residents who had remembered the art of cording and spinning the yarn from the sheeps wool, enjoyed the dem- onstration, Speakers were set up in five different areas in the home so that everyone could enjoy the fine organ music of Ed Stiles, who played many old favourites and requests, The Bayfield and Exeter Senior Citizens clubs joined forces to provide a variety program for Family Night. One hundred and twenty took part in the Friday afternoon bingo in the auditorium with some 20 games played with 50 winners. Thirty tables of games were played on Saturday afternoon sponsored by the Happy Citiz- ens Club of Seafo'th, The Antique cars on display during the week were courtesy of William Wells of Clinton. They added an attraction for many of the residents who had driven some of the models in the 1920's, O.P.P. report During the week June 19 to June 25, the following invest- igations were carried out by officers at Wingham Detach- ment, Five investigations under the Liquor Control Act with five persons charged, 22 charges laid under the Highway Traffic Act with 14 warnings issued and 38 in- vestigations under the Crim- inal Code of Canada with three charges laid, On Saturday, June 24, John Haasnoot of R.

R. #2, Corrie, Ontario, who were riding the motorcycle, Alton Adams of Mississauga was the driver of the car, He was not injured, but his wife, Cheryl, was treated for minor injuries at Wingham and Dis- trict Hospital, Mr; Noble is in satisfactory condition at Submitted by REV. CECIL WITTICH. An overworked mother, with husband and five sons, collapsed, and a nurse hurriedly assumed control of affairs. In the kitchen she found six little bean-potssizzling in the oven, "For the land's sake!" she exclaimed. "What are all these bean -pots for?" "Oh," gasped the weary mother, "you see, father won't have any molasses in his beans, and John likes 'em full of molasses; Frank vows he can't eat em with molasses, but must have some onion; Gideon wants lots of pork, and Tom won't eat pork, and little Alec!" But the nurse, without waiting to hear what Alec liked, slammed the doer, and returned to the kitchen. At once she smashed the six little bean -pots, and substituted a mammoth pot filled with beans and molasses and pork and onions, vowing to herself that that family would eat their beans that way or not at all, And that was the way they,did eat them, The six members of the home were, doubtless, fond of the wife and mother, but perhaps gradually and unconsciously, they had become selfish and tyrannical, and these unworthy traits had been fostered by the mother's failure to maintain the warm and wise authority - her right and duty!

P. P. (Huron -Bruce) The Province has reversed its policy of waiting for a municip- ality or area to request a region- al government amalgamation, consolidation or whatever, The change comes about for two reasons. The Government says its old policy was one of gradualism resulting from' the reluctance of many municipalit- ies to change their structure. These r emarks were made at the founding meeting of the Association of Municipalities of Ontario by Treasurer Darcy Mc - Keough. By the fall of this year, Mr. McKeough said the Government will make proposals for the mun- icipalities immediately east and Students pass music exams Several local -students were successful in examinations with the Western Ontario Conserva- tory of Music. Dianne Wasson passed her grade four harmony. Brenda Johnston and Barbara Lee passed grade three history. Lorraine Chamney obtained first class honours in grade two theory and Judy Ives received honours. west of Metro Toronto. Rowdyism and vandalism are becoming serious problems in some of the provincial parks across the Province according to Natural Resources Minister Leo Bernier. Mr. Bernier said in the Legislat- ure that he has instructed park superintendents to get tough with anyone who is caught in an act of vandalism cr who is disturbing other campers or visitors in the park. The Minister is authorizing the police to evict anyone from the parks who is involved in such activity. Labour Minister Fern Guindon introduced legislation which would consolidate and extend Ontario laws banning discrimin- ation on the grounds of sex, age and marital status. The legislation puts into the Ontario Human Rights Code pro- visions now found in the Women's Equal Employment Opportunity Act and the Age Discrimination Act. Mr, Guindon said that the maj- or importance of the amendments was an extension of the Human Rights Code to prevent discrimin- ation in the letting of flats in houses. - Auctions RICHARD LODB ' Experienced Auctioneer 0 & Appraiser i ,i Clinton, Ont. / Phone t 482-7898 or 482-9431` Celebrate 40th anniversary A surprise party was held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. G.

Linda, twenty months, and a babe in a carriage, There already to bless the marr- iage. Things went along at a hectic pace, Garden, cows, chickens, a cont- inual race. Then one day - George said, By Gee, There's too many women round here for me, So the very first day the school bell tolled, Murray was just a few hours old. Later Brenda and Murray romped on the bed. Five year old Linda said, "Kids you'll fall and break your head". Mrs. Walpole, her teacher, four in the class, And for company, another little lass. Bev. , Reg, and John - no more, Beginners, the year of 154. In '55 Linda was accompanied by sister, Whom she told firmly, 'Now don't you whisper". April 24,1956 - that was the day, Maurice arrived and planned to • stay. 1 We've lost track of time as we think of the fun. Down at the creek, we sure had some. Remember the flop as we went off the tire, And Brenda's sere toe that resulted in fire. Linda decided on a business course With time left over to ride her horse. Soon she was a secretary, oh so neat, But then, she got those itchy feet, Out west', down east, and overse as, - Kept busy as the bees,- Now ees,Now she's back and wouldn't you know. Chose to settle in Ontario. So with these gifts which it's our pleasure to give. We wish you a long, happy life to live. - Your friends and neighbours.

These years of dependence, Linda, Gave you both happiness and satisfact- ion. With the security gained from your dependence stage, Your eager desire to know, and be part of the ever-changing world emerged, First a skill to enable a few dollars to be earned was secured, With typing fingers all set and short -hand symbols abound in your head, Off you set for the friendly western port of Van- couver, Where working with the public in different capac- ities Gave you new skills and courage to tackle those far distant shores, Ireland, Scot- land, England and the Contin- ent, Everytime we asked, "How's Linda?" We were met with the customary reply, Well, now I think she is in ---, or she was supposed to be in ---, Having finally cured your rest- less independent stage, You de- cided home was the place where you should be. And now you are combining your depend- ent and independent stages, To blend with those of your chosen partner. We hope your venture into this experience of life Will be as exciting as all your past experiences. We, your friends and relatives, would like to share in your happiness by having you accept these gifts with the hope that they will be very useful in your new home, -Your friends and relatives - Linda was presented with many lovely and useful gifts by all - the relatives and friends present for which she made a fitting reply and also to all who had helped with her shower.

Treated seed is not feed THE BLYTH STANDARD, June 28, 1972, PC, 9, Seek approval to build under contract by RON SHAW Among several recommendat- ions put before Huron County Board of Education Members and passed last week by the advisory vocational committee was a suggestion from Mr, G, Ring, the industrial arts teacher at Seaforth District High School, that his senior class be allowed to construct a small building under contract, The issuer of the contract Treated seed should never be fed to livestock, poultry or pets, says C.B. Kelly, Department of Environmental Biology, Univers- ity of Guelph. Some insecticides will appear in the milk of cattle fed treated seed, Modern methods can detect mere traces of these chemicals in milk and meat. Treated seed should be stored well away from feed in a place where neither livestock or child- ren have access. Any leftover seed should be bagged, labeled and stored away for use next year, The chemical used to treat the seed should be marked on the label as well as the seed variety and the date. The germiL- ation of the seed should be check- ed the following year to see if there has been some reduction in the seed's capacity to germinate. If the seed is not worth saving, it should be burned or buried where birds and animals can not get at it. Professor Kelly suggests that a careful estimate of seed requirements be made to avoid the problem of disposi ng of sur- plus seed. Even bags that held treated seed or were used in treating seeds should be kept away from bags used for feed or destroyed, says Professor Kelly. vutv, ONLYiDAY$LEfEH 2 Our special offer to renew your subscription at the old rate of 4 dollars ends at 5p.m, on Friday, June 30 After that time • all subscriptions will cost 6 dollars.

In 1855 William Ainley laid out a villat laid out a village plot which he named Ainleyville, On April 1, 1856, he sold his property, including the village site, to John Nicholas Knechtal, a local merchant and land speculatcr. Later that year a post office named Dingle was opened with William Grant as postmaster. During the next few years several small businesses were established, no less than five churches were built and an addit- ion was made to the village plot by Thomas Halliday, Despite the water -power potent- ial of the river, mills were slow to develop, partly, it seems, be- cause the mill rights were con- trolled by entrepreneurs who liv- ed in other centres John and Francis Fishleigh and Thomas Babb (all merchants at Mitchell in Perth County) and Donald Mc- Innis (a Hamilton merchant) controlled the mill property and flooding rights at various times, but none seems to have erected a mill. This achievement was left to William Vanstone, a mill- er from Egmondville, who built a sawmill and a grist -mill soon after his arrival at Ainleyville in 1859, It was not until 1862, how- ever, that he purchased the prop- erty on which these buildings were erected from Donald Mc- Innis and Thomas Babb, Richard Vanstone, a miller in Egmond-' ville, was a partner in the firm until 1863 when he sold his share to James Vanstone of Ain- leyville. During the 1860's Ainleyville flourished. The Vanstone' s Flour and Grist Mill was expanded to "three run of stone, capable of dressing 75 barrels of flour daily, besides gristing, /I Their sawmill employed 10 men and cut one million feet of lumber annually. Other industries established during this period were woolen mills, Ste•wart's Red U White Food Mkt. Blyth. Ont.

'by Bill Smiley Occasionally, in the desert of wars and deaths and fires and strikes in the news- papers, one comes across something that is like a cool drink of water. I had that experience this very morning; The story concerned Gene MacLellan, won't be familiar The name mi � r to most of my square old readers, but will be to my younger ones, if 1 have any. MacLellan is a Canadian song -writer who has made it big in the music world, One of his songs, Snowbird, be- came a million -record seller for singer Anne Murray, That led to a wave of song successes, which in turn led to an avalanche of royalty cheques, Well, dear reader, and you'd better take a deep breath at this point, McLellan is quitting. No, he hasn't broken his guitar arm, Ile hasn't had a heart attack, Ile hasn't had a shat- tering emotional experience. He is dropping out because he is making too much money and does not want the pressure of responsibili- ties it caused, Ile is giving up his inter- est in a company set up to handle his affairs, and has asked that the royalties be used in part to help young performers. He has abandoned the farm he bought in and given away most of his possessions, He and his wife left with no definite plans, "probably" to hitchhike through Europe. Canadian Press quotes MacLellan: "l don't know what I'll do, I don't know when qr if I'll come back," Isn't that a refreshing little story? 1 envy him, and many others caught in the material tread -mill '1 will � too, I'm sure. Of course, I'm not naive enough to compare him to Diogenes, who lived in a barrel and owned nothing but a drinking bowl. Some of those royalties will still find their way into MacLellan's pocket, and he won't be begging in the streets, But 1 admire a man, or woman, who can turn his or her back on the whole thing and walk away. More and more of our young people are doing it, some for the worst of rea- sons, some for the best, Some opt out because they've decided to let George do it, They deliber- ately become bums, have no scruples whatever about begging, stealing, accepting welfare, They are dirty, pro- miscuous, malodorous and blasphemous, , But often highly intelligent. On the other side of the coin are the young people whogetoffthe a boat for dif- ferent reasons, At some point they take a clear-eyed look at their parents, at the lives they themselves are living, and decide, "This is not for me," ' This second group tends to be idealistic. They want to create, They want to make a life-style that doesn't depend on status and the buck, They will work extremely hard for something they think is 0 w rth doing. They're re almo st invariably gentle, tolerant and reasonably clean, They are not bums, but seekers after something they don't seein our society. They use the same four-letter words the other group uses, but unselfconsciously. They are not blasphemous, but in a strange way, religious, Friends of ours have a son, Mike. His parents des- paired of him. He had a fan- tastic I.Q., but kept flunk- ing in high school because he was bored r d silly, Never did finish school. Bummed around, worked a bit, quit. Then he became a Bahai, Fie is at present pioneering the faith, as they call it, at Baker Lake in the North- west Territories, among the Eskimoes. He's happy, working hard, and wants to get some more schooling so that he can go back and teach Eski- mo children, His parents are proud of him. Fiere was a lad, charming, witty, handsome, Ile had every opportunity to go to • times and bad times. Now university, and would have he too Is a Bahai, He doesn't made a mark in society. He have a degree, but he can chose otherwise, but may be talk rings around most uni- making a bigger mark, in the versity professors, in French long run, or English. He works at a tough job, Our own son has done 'second chef in a restaurant, pretty much the same sort to support himself. He had a of thing. He too, if you'll : chance to be a bar -tender pardon it, is charming, witty for more money, but serving and handsome, He has a liquor is against his princi- great musical talent, He is pies.

The park is a trans- formed cemetery and for the past 27 years has been one' of the projects of the local Hort- icultural Society. Thirteen grave markers of the early sett- lers, which were left in the "park'! are now set in the cairn which is built of faced stone. The society knows there are many more bodies resting in the park, but knowledge of the fact is un- available at present, but pro- vision has been made to pre- serve all records that are sent to the Society, by having inserted a cylinder with a heavy brass screw top, in which will be kept any data forth- coming, Mr, Freeman Tunney was one of the graduates of the Purina Co, Feeding Advisory School and attended the graduation exercises and banquet held at the Royal Connaught Hotel, Hamilton on Thursday night. Freeman will continue on his Behind the Scenes .. by Keith Roulston I paid a visit to my old home of Toronto the other day, and . am I ever glad I left. Every time I go back, it seems s I hate the place a little more, I never did like living cramped up in a high-rise apartment or working in a window -less office, that's why I left Hogtown, But there at least seem to be some things 1 liked such as the museum and the theatres like the Royal Alexander or just wandering the streets window-shopping or oggling the girls, This time around, however, all these pleasures seemed to have faded. For one thing, after being buried in the bowels of a hotel all day at a business conference, I emerged just in time to see rush hour, and a Friday -night rush- hour at that which is tradition- ally the worst because everyone is in a hurry to escape from the city for the weekend, Then, too, it was raining and nothing is more depressing than the city in the rain. Rain in the country can be nice because it falls gently, and you can see every- thing turning green, and feel a freshness in the air. In the city, the rain settles in puddles that cars splash on pedestrians, You can't turn concrete green, and the rain forces the smog to settle lower around the buildings, giving a sour smell to everything. There was no way that 1 was going to risk life and limb, not to mention car in the rush hour, so tried to kill some time wind- ow-shopping, or rather browsing in Eaton's and Simpson's, since in the rain , the window-shopp- ing wasn't much fun. The effort proved frustrating, however. Have you ever tried to jaywalk across highway 401, without being run down. I haven't, but Pm sure I know what it feels like. Everytime I wanted to stop and take a look at something I had to look over both shoulders to make sure I wouldn't get run over by some woman rushing to pick up a few things before getting home to supper. Even with these precaut- ions, the shopping period was not without some close calls. It was also a little sickening after a while to see more space in the big store devoted to false eyelashes than is.occupied by most food stores in our part of the country. Variety is nice, but this is ridiculous. There was no time on this trip to visit the museum or take in a play, but there was time to watch the girls, and there are still plenty of them in the down town area, They come out of the offices by the thousand at that time of the afternoon. But even they don't seem to interest much anymore. I don't really think I'm too old yet, but some- thing seemed to be missing. May- be it was the fact that the girls of Toronto didn't seem to be real people. They had faces like plastic masks, all covered with make-up and other "beauty aids". They wore the latest fashions, but so` do mannequins. Th"y were braless and emotion- less and might as well be wooden. No, visiting Toronto doesn't make me want to go back. It just makes me depressed to see so many people living such sad lives. The one good thing is, it makes me so glad to get back home again.
