N.� shortage of destructive, energy We may be facing an energy crisis in the world at present, but our Canadian politicians seem to still have planty of energy,and nearly all of it destructive. In the past few weewe have had the treat of seeing the Premier of Alberta call the Federal Energy Minister a liar, the Prime Minister call the Premier of Alberta incompitent in dealing in international oil marketing, Progressive Conservative M, P, s calling the Prime Minister down for hits criticism of the Alberta Premier, and the New Democrats called just about everything by members of the Progressive Conservative party who are upset because the NDP let them down on a non -confidence motion when they could have beaten the Liberals. We are, in short, seeing minority government at its worst in these dying, trying days of 1973. There seems little likelihood that even if the Conservatives do defeat the government early in the new year, the. result of a new election would be all that different. At most, we would likely exchange a minority Liberal government for a new minority Conservative government. As for possible improvement in the oil situation, it wouldn't really matter which of the parties were in, no matter what they like to pretend, We're in a mess along with the rest of the world, and there seems to be no easy way out. TODAY'S CHILD BY HELEN ALLEN THE TORONTO &.9 SYNDICATE Kenny spent most of the summer at camp and loved it with the opportunities for swimming, fishing, canoeing and hiking. He plays baseball, football, hockey and basketball, Just turned 11, Kenny has been in special education classes but has now moved into the regular Grade 5, He has a slight perceptual handicap which interferes a bit with his reading but does not otherwise' eem troublesome, Though not a top student, Kenny likes school and is eager to learn, Kenny is a good-looking boy with blue eyes, blonde hair, fair skin and freckles, He is near-sighted and really needs glasses, but he hates to wear them so they are more often in the case than on his nose, Pleasant, co-operative Kenny is always ready to help with chores either at school or in his foster home, He is generally happy, with many friends. He follows rules well - indeed he seems happiest when life is planned so that he knows what the program is and what is expected of him, Kenny needs a mother and father with warmth and sensitivity who will give him love and encouragement but will not be demanding about academic achievement, Since he gets on well with children of all ages, he will like to have brothers and sisters in his adopting family, To inquire about adopting Kenny, please write to Today's Child, Ministry of Community & Social Services, Box 888, Station K, Toronto M4P 2H2.

HEW HEHI YOU GOT LANDED WITH A RIGHT ONE/ Z BET THAT ROMANCE DIDNIT LAST VERY LONG; Behind the scenes_ Sad side of women's lib BY KEITH ROULSTON In a recent article in Toronto Life magazine Catherine Breslin, who has become one of the pre-eminent writers about the women's liberation movement in North America, tells of some 'startling discoveries. Ms. Breslin, after writing about women's liberation for many years decided to go out and talk to some of the liber- ated women she's always writing about. "Let me confess to you up front," she says, "that for me this article has been a rotten personal trip. Nine wretched weeks of writing and two more of black -pit mood. Friends asked what the hell was the matter and I couldn't say, ex- cept that I hadn't found what I expected and I hated what I'd found. Freedom to me had always been the positive thing that makes all the rest work. So I sat there playing the tapes of these women who were buc- king and hacking toward their own freedom and what I heard was hours of desert -- bleak, barren, torn." Not all the 35 women inter- viewed were unhappy of course. . Some were happy mother -wives and career women but the women that stuck in the writer's mind were the unhappy ones and she tells the story of seven of the women in the article, It's a gloomy group. They are either divorced, separated or unhappy with their present husband and sampling the fruits of freedom on the side. They are supposed to be liberated, but when one finishes the article one gets the feeling that they are trapper) not liberated. Now before anyone brands me a male chauvinist, let me say firmly that I think the new awareness that women aren't meant to be just instruments of bearing children and baby- sitting them while the father works, is a good thing. But • t the -same time, I think the movement has led some women astray. Liberation means being free of the traditional woman's place but many have instead interpreted it as giving them the right to put themselves before all else and that's what leads to trouble, Liberation becomes selfishness and selfish- ness always leads eventually to unhappiness. Some of the most liberated women I've ever known, to my mind, have been mothers who have raised a family then wed the time they have while their children have been at school to do the kind of thing they really want to do, like write, or paint, or do pottery. That to me is more liberation • than working in an office at a job that brings in money but not much pleasure. And while these women stay at home and do their thing, I know a lot of men who are frustrated writers, or painters or potters because they can't make a living at one of the crafts and so have to spend the greatest part of their time doing things they don't like do- ing. Who needs more liberation? The falacy of Women's Lib h that simply by adopting the philosophy and maybe throwing the old man out of the house, you can suddenly do what you want without having to compromise. That's like the story parents used to give their children that all they had to do was get a univer- sity education and the key to the mint and happiness was theirs. It just ain't so. Women's Libbers want to go a step further. They demand "the right to rule our bodies", in other words, abortion on • demand, But no one ever rules their body. Their body rules them, just as,man must live with nature and will never really con- quer it. What, a horrible thing it would be if man, with his sel- fish nature, could rule his body and Nature. Life is a compromise. We mustlive in balance w'.tn other people and with Nature, including our bodies. We can direct our lives a little, but we cannot be dictators of everything we want. Lucky are the women, and men, who realize this fact, CROSSWORD PUZZLE ACROSS 1. Philip. pine knife 5, "Macbeth" character 11. Joie de vivre 12, Approxi- mately 13.

MURRAY GAUNT, M.P,P, (HURON -BRUCE) The optical industry this week came under a barrage of opposi- tion questions,. Opposition Leader Robert Nixon suggested an independent investigation by the Provincial Government. Albert Roy )L - Ottawa East) asked for a royal commission by t1 e Federal Government to investigate the optical industry and particularly the Canada wide activities of Imperial Op- tical Company Limited, Premier William Davis said the Government will certainly be looking at the structure and membership of the Ophthalmic Dispensers Board. Previously Stephen Lewis, the N.D.P. leader, had asked the Minister of Consumer and Commercial Relations to inv- estigate the industry's prices. Legislation was introduced and passed this week to rate the salaries for Ontario M.P.P.'s to $22, 500 from $18,000. The Legislation was part of a wide range of other raises to the Pre- mier, Cabinet and Opposition Leaders. Mr. Davis said the new pay and allowance levels recognized that being a M. P, P, these days is a frill time job. The last pay riase was in 1969. _. The Premier's total annual remuneration will rise from $40, 00o to $ 52, 000, Opposition Leader Robert Nixon's salary goes from $35,000 to $43,500 and N. D: P. Leader Lewis from $22, 000 to $29,000. Cabinet Ministers with Port- folio will go from $35,000 to $40,000. Ministers without Portfolio will go from $24,000 to $30,000 The Legislation adds a range of items for which members will receive compensation, These are defined as actual and reasonable costs and for which the Member must produce exp- ense accounts and receipts. Ontario Treasurer John White has told 31 municipalities in the Province to introduce zon- ing by-laws governing land use ce face Government freezes in • development. The Government imposed development controls on God- _ erich and Colborne Townships . after Goderich officials comp- lained that a shopping centre outside the town would kill a shopping centre within the town that has been planned for almost 3 years. Mr, White said in the Legis- lature that in his view the freeze imposed by his Ministry on Colborne and Goderich Town- ships would override the build- ing permit that was issued ear- lier in the same day and he was prepared to take the matter to court to prove the point, if need be. ............ �;��'.• . r'r'r'r7. , ......: � %�� $} rv:%;%�{ :;:;:�%:�'rt� t%ri�r ��ly'�•• � . THIS WEEK_ from Ottawa OIL CONTROL BILL Energy Minister - Donald Macdonald introduced in the House of Commons, legisla- tion to provide for the ra- tioning of oil products, na- tural gas, coal, electricity and petroleum products such as plastics. The bill would also esta- blish a new Allocation Board with broad powers to set pri- ces for energy resources, to control their import and ex- port and to order the'relaxa- tion of anti -pollution stan- dards. WIRETAPPING BILL The House of Commons gave final reading to a bill aimed at controlling wire- tapping or other forms of electronic surveillance, The Commons approved one amendment which would permit police to introduce evidence in court from illegal wiretaps. Another amend- ment approved will require provincial attorneys -general to notify people that have, been subjected to electronic surveillance or r wiretapping by police if no criminal charges are laid after 90 days of sur- veillance, 1973 IMMIGRATION UP Immigration to Canada rose, by 27.6% in the first nine months of this year over the same period in 1972. 13y the end of September, 119,800 immigrants had been admit- ted into Canada as compared IkID$— VlSI!

(Luke 2.79) He prepared the way of Christ, proclaiming to the Israelites , the coming of the Messiah. Christ came into this world to reactivate the depressed, to remove all barriers and hindrances that keep people from God and cause hatred among people, to institute justice and in sickness and distress grant comfort; all this in order that everyone shall not only see but exper- ience as well the peace of God (cf. Luke 3.5-6) This peace of God is communion with him and with his people to such an extent that all form one group, .with Christ as. Lord, who not only worship together on a Sunday but; also help one another. , This is no 'spiritual' antidote for weaklings, for cowards afraid of the harsh realities of life. It is the only way that removes the threat of death, the only way to justice, the only comfort in illness and distress. He is the life, the only life in which we may experience peace that deepens in the midst of the transforming power of the Holy Spirit. HIS NAME IS AT THE TOP I had the nicest Christmas list, The longest one in town, 1111 Daddy looked at It and said, "You'll have to cut It down," I knew that what he said was true Beyond the faintest doubt, But was amazed to hear him say, "You've left your best Friend out." And so I scanned my list again, And said, "Oh, that's not true!" But Daddy said, "His name's not there, That Friend who dled for you." And then I clearly understood, 'Twas Jesus that he meant; For Him who should come first of all I hadn't planned a cent! I'd made a Christmas birthday list, And _ left the Saviour out! But, oh, It didn't take me long To change the list about. And tho' I've had to drop some names Of folks I like a lot, My Lord must have the most—because HIS NAME IS AT THE TOP! REV.

You don't have to live on a farm to have a comfortable home. A CO.OP' petroleum driver serves a lot of customers who live on farms, That's true. But he also supplies quite a few town and suburban homes as well, and with the same kind of dedication, After all, keeping a farm house warm and comfortable isn't always easy. Bad roads, weather and longer distances can make the job a little more ch(lenging. It takes a guy who is dedicated to the job. The important thing for you to think about (whether you live in the country or in town) is that the C0 -OP petroleum driver is there when he should be, with quality CO-OP fuel oil, temperature formulated to the area where you live, Get to know your CO.OP petroleum driver. He's reliable, He delivers warmth you can rely on, wherever you live. 'Repr,lered fa,dem,rA LJ D UNITED CO-OPERATIVES OF ONTARIO Our members shop CO-OP for home heat service.

The same was said in the US at the time of the meat boycott last spring. Many of these people apparently have never heard what a good balanced diet is. Take the Ornstein of Mont- real with an income of $15000 to'$18.000. The Canadian mag- azine reported that they , spent weekly .$37.50 on food. . She calls hot dogs a• basic staple for kids. I don't want to com- ment on the food value of hot dogs. Draw any conclusion you like. It's a good deal fat and cereals. The Ornsteins can 'only afford ribsteak once a month, the poor devils. When they had visitors recently, four of them, they had to feed them brisket and the cheapest veg- etable they could find, tsk, tsk. They can't afford import- ed wines anymore either, they must make do with Canadian wines. Ellen is a part time school teacher and her husband is an engineer. They have one consolation. The savings on • bacon. Their religion forbids them eating this. From Dear Ann Landers; We live in an area that has had several breakins. My wife asked me to buy a watchdog. I've heard that pigs are, smarter than dogs and I'd like to try a watchpig. Have you ever heard of this? Do you think my neighbours would mind? -Tallahasse reader, - No comment. Sometimes concern is ex- pressed about the increased size of landholdings in Canada. Take for instance Jack Horner MP of Alberta who owns some 18, 000 acres. In Denmark they put a stop to this by limiting landholdings to 500 acres. ' Prince Edward Island is getting concerned too. A royal com- missionthere recommended 200 acre limits for all land on all partnerships and comp- anies. violcioK You may have thought that they were out of style, but an U.S. company: charged: that Canadian horse' shoes were dumped on their market and want something done about it.

Emergency Coverage Through 'Clinton Hospital 'If Unavailable Bill Smiley It seems that in the Seventies, the whole world is lurching, as most. of us do in our private lives, from one crisis to another, Crippling strikes, crippling food prices, crippling politi- cal scandals, and now the energy crisis, so-called. A crisis may be defined as a turning point. Perhaps it's time we reached some tuming paints and did some turning in new directions. What so many people of the affluent post-war years don't realize is that crises are nothing new, Every generation faces them, meets them, and resolves them, somehow. War, depression, another war, the bomb. All these have been universal crises in this century. Beside those big ones, a hike in the price of beef is less than monu• mental, and even the ex- pected energy crisis is small potatoes. (I must be hungry.) If the energy crisis be- comes more than newspaper headlines, and shortages and rationing occur, it might be the best thing that has happened to the fat -cat Western world for genera- tions. We are in grave danger of turning into slobs, physical- ly, mentally, emotionally and morally, Maybe we need a good purge, in the form of a sharp cut-back in our soft way of living. Get rid of some of the fat, even if it requires a surgeon's knife. Take a day in the life of an average family. Some- one, very often the husband in these degenerate days, gets up first and turns the thermostat up to seventy. The beast in the basement starts gulping more energy; Our friend shaves with his electric razor, He goes down and gets his orange juice out of another beast that has been burning elec• tricity all- night, 'producing nothing, Then he (lips on two burners on the electric stove, one for coffee, one for bacon and eggs. When they're ready, he jams some bread into the electric toaster. Then the mother stum- bles down and turns the burners hack on. Father drives the eight . blocks. to work, stinking up the envie. onment and burning energy, The kids `waffle off(;to, a school which; is probably burning far more tons of coal a day than it needs to, That school has thousands of lights which are on even on a bright day. At home friend wife throws the laundry into an automatic washer which uses large quantities of hot water which has taken a fair . amount of electricity to produce. Then • it goes into the automatic dryer, run by electricity. Then she tackles the ironing, and we all know what heats an iron in this day. She decides to wash her hair. More hot water. Then she sits under the electric dryer with fresh coffee made on the stove burner. At this Hine of year, probably half the lights in the house are on, merrily chewing up the watts. And so it goes, right Here's a glinipse'of the past supplied by Hugh Radford - of Blyth. It shows Hugh, Ed and George Radford beside -a vintage car:in Goderich 50 years ago. BLY The energy crisis may be good for us across the land, all day long. The television set burns juice far into the night, Advertis- ing signs pop on and eat more juice, Industry belches its wastes and burns energy with a lavish hand, Right now, in our kitchen, the electric oven is glowing red, It will be for the next two hours. Know what's in it? One large potato, being baked. Multiply the juice being consumed by this one family by about five million in Canada alone and 1 think you'll agree that we're a pretty extravagant, even sluttish lot, when it comes to being prodigal with natural resources that are going to be exhausted and can never be replaced. STANDARD, Dec. 121 1973, And I haven't even men- tioned such ridiculositles as electric tooth -brushes and electric carving knives, Don't get me wrong, I'm no Spartan, I'll drive to work rather than walk. And leave that great hulking, rusting monster, that re- quired so much energy to be built and burns up so much more, sitting in the parking lot all day. The point is, I could walk to work, and it wouldn't hurt me, In fact, it would be jolly good for me. And I don't expect my wife to get out the scrub - board and wash her hair in rain•water. But it might be jolly good for her, if .she had to. Women, and men, have too much time these days to sit around and worry about their nerves, Our fairly immediate ancestors didn't have time for nerves and ulcers, They didn't need pick-up pills to get going. There was no alternative to just getting going. They, didn't need three martinis to whet their appet- ites, They were just plain hungry. Nor did they need sleeping pills, to get off at night. They were just plain pooped. I'm not scared of an energy crisis. It might even be interesting, Anyway, I have my 'own energy crisis every day, when the alarm goes off at 7.15. That's what I call a real crisis, 15. lacilessmtawmgosAmmimmmtmesmsmosNx,zhvgimxtgregyzagmegutrimgiszii3rsoonssmtil oat 39$ 24 OZ, LOAF 45$, 16 OZ.160$ J 1 LB. $1.09 Fin cAKE 09$ 32 OZ.

Accordhig to Vice-president of Rockledge; Gordon Smith, Goderich, the building itself is proposed to co -ver three and a half acres. All services for the complex will be supplied by Rockledge and parking will be provided for up to 2,000 cars. Although there is presently a "freeze" on commercial develop- ment in Coderich Township im- posed by Hon, John White last Thursday just minutes after the Rockledge building permit was issued, Smith feels there is a gcod chance the Rockledge mall will receive approval. Smith said the matter is presently before the courts and decision is expected Within 30 days. He said construction will begin immediately upon receipt of the approval and he estimated that completion date would be approximately nine months from the starting date. In a prepared press release, Smith attempted to "clarify some of the misunderstandings and misinterpreted information that has reached the public this past week," "I would first like to acquaint myself and faintly to the folks in this area who don't already know us," said Smith, "My wife and self were born, raised and educated'in Goderich. Since finishing school I was employed by local people. La- ter I owned, operated and built my own businesses for a good 14 years here." With his parents, Smith owned the Bluewater Lounge which cat- ered to dances and banquets. "Later beside the lounge I built, owned and operated the Bluewater Motel which is south on Highway 21," said Smith, "Selling the motel, the family and myself moved to Goderich. Here under Viceroy Construction, I was a building contractor and under the same name operated a backhoe business," "As you can now see we are no strangers coming into town and trying to put a transgression over on our local merchants, town, town council and Mr. White, " stated Smith in the written release. "We are at- tempting to make our area grow for the better," Smith squelched rumors of animosity between Suncoast and Rockledge. "Ken Hutchins and I have worked and done business with each oti.er quite often," said Rockledge Vice-president, Smith. "We are not in rivalry with Suncoast as indicated by the news media. Competition to me is not bad, it just makes that the best location for a shopping plaza in this area is Highway 80" Smith stated, "Attending special meeting in Goderich Township recently; the Huron County planner was present. He was asked with location of the two proposed shopping plazas he would consider as a plannerfor the county to be the most suitable and he stated Highway 8 would be the best." Smith made further reference to the Huron County Planning Department in his release, "Some 18 months prior to this issue coming up, Goderich Westfield one toil harder at the task he Is doing," "I would also like to point out that there has been a lot of work, time, money and pla- ning spent by our company to bring cali- bre and suitable sipping plaza, H said Smith. "We are endeavoring to bring to you a new and major food chain store," said Smith, HAD present food store will be left in their present locations," The Rockledge spokesman defended the choice of site on Highway B.

Councillor Bill Harris won- dered what, exactly, the buil- ding could be used for, Mayor Miller explained that it could not be wed for a commercial venture. The general opinion of the councillors 'present was that it was a shame to see the buil- ding go but the town couldn't afford the upkNp. It was moved, however, not to dec- ide right now whether the town wants the station house or not because a use may be found for it later.
