Workmen began Wednesday the work of removing the present roof on Memorial Hall so that
it can bo replaced with a new roof. The change was necessitated by a structural weakness in
the old roof. The commencement of work follows a lengthy debate stretching over more than

Blyth residents will feel no immediate rates with one significant exception --the
effect from the 12.4 per cent increase in
Ontario Hydro charges to local utility
commissions, Larry Walsh, treasurer of the
Blyth P.U.C. said Monday,
Mr, Walsh said that despite the increase
12.4 per cent in the cost of Hydro to the
PUC, local customers would not be effected
because under the law the PUC can only '
increase charges once a year. A recent
increase came into effect with the '

consumers by 11.4 per cent, Large
industrial customers served directly by
Ontario Hydro will have their rates
increased 15.2 per cent.
In a letter to Darcy McKeough, Ontario
Minister of Engery, which was made public
last week, Hydro Chairman . George
Gathercole said that Hydro's Board of •
Directors had accepted in principle the
recommendations of the Ontario Energy •
Board on the Key factors affecting 1975
recovery of deficits from the industrial and
rural systems.
in April Hydro proposed an increase of
15.3 per cent in wholesale rates to
municipalities and a 16 per cent increase to
direct industrial customers. In its report to
the Minister of Energy in. September
following a public review of the Hydro
submission, the OEB proposed a rate of
12.7 per cent for municipalities and 14,5 to
the direct industrials. The decision to
recover deficits is the reason the industrial
rate is slightly higher (0.7 per cent) than
proposed by the OEB. The 12.4 per cent
increase in wholesale rates is a precise
calculation of the effects of the OEB's
recommendations. The increases
announced represent a decrease in revenue
to Hydro' approximately $22 million,
compared with the original rate proposal.
"In accepting generally the OEB
recommendations on rates," the letter
said, "the Hydro Board does so with some
concern because they will result in heavier
borrowings at a time when interest rates
are rising."
The major departure from the OEB's
recommendations is the recovery of deficits„

lyth, will cost rural users more
from rural and direct industrial customers.
Noting that a cardinal principle of Hydro's
financial policy is that there be no cross
subsidization among customer categories,
the Hydro Board said it "is convinced that
it should make a start on recovering the
deficits in 1975 so that equity is maintained
between the municipal, rural and direct
industrial systems."
"Although rural retail rates were not
within the scope of the OEB's delibera-
tions, Ontario Hydro has factored the effect
of the OEB proposals into the wholesale
rural operating account," Hydro's letter
said, in arriving at the 11.4 per cent
•increase.
The Hydro Board said full attention
would be given to the OEB's opinion that
greater reliance should be placed on fossil
fuel stations compared with nuclear and
that it would review "as a matter of
urgency" projections of supply and
demand for heavy water.
Huron may still get
power plant
When Ontario Hydro announced in July
that it had suspended pians for location of
an atomic power plant in Huron county the
farm groups which had organized
resistance to the plant announced they
were going to remain active in case Hydro
again became interested in the area again.
The groups seemed to have made a wise
move last week when it was revealed that
Hydro is still considering the Lake Huron
shoreline south of Goderich as the site of a
power plant.
Mal Bradden, Ontario Hydro's manager
of community relations said last week that
Lake Huron shoreline between Goderich
and Grand Bend along with locations along
southern Georgian Bay and Lake Erie are
considered "potential sites" for Hydro's
long range plans. .
Mr. Bradden said at July announcement
that a planned nuclear generating station
'for the Goderich area had been abandoned
due to opposition from area residents,
meant only that the location had been
shelved in Hydro's immediate plans.
"Goderich was next in line in areas
being looked at," he said, "but the
announcement meant the area certainly
dropped out of contention."
Under Hydro's plans for the decade 1982
-92, the southern Lake Huron shoreline "is
certainly back in the pot" with the
Georgian Bay and Lake Erie sites, he said
in an interview from Toronto.
The rapidly -expanding population of the
Kitchener -London area means that addi-
tional generating stations at all three
potential sites "makes good sense".
"From the standpoint of providing
balanced service to Southwestern Ontario,
we've got to consider building additiona'
plants tocomplete cur 500-kilowat grid
network,"
he said.
Mr. Bradden said he mentioned the
possibility of a site near Goderich when. he
spoke Wednesday to delegatesof the
Ontario Municipal Electrical Ass►ciation at
Douglas Point, but, he conceded Thursday:
"I just don't know where we'll locate _
first."
He said there"is nothing secret or new"
in long-range plans Hydro will release this
week. Ontario Energy Minister Darcy
McKeough has already outlined ways in
which Hydro plans to meet the increasing
demands for electricity in the province, he
said. -
Mr. Bradden said Hydro has not yet
established a priority list of future nuclear
generating sites in Southwestern Ontario.
"Where any of the sites with a potential....
for development sits in our future plans no
one knows," he said.
"I just know we have to build more
plants."
Precise locations for future generating
stations still require further study by
Hydro and the involvement of the public,
he said,

Onlydaysfour
left to renew
s-ubscription
There are four days left for those who
wish to take advantage of old rates to
renew their subscriptions to The Standard,
It was announced last week that the
yearly subscription rate for the paper will
increase to $8.00 in Canada and $10.00 in
the U.S. and other countries effective
October 9,
In order to help subscribers beat
inflation, however, it was decided that
subscribers would be allowed to renew
their subscriptions for up to two years at
their old rate before the Oct. 9 deadline.
New subscriptions or renewals will be
'taken at the old rate until 5 p.m. on Oct. 8.

PG, 2. THE BLYTH STANDARD, OCTOBER 2, 1974.
This 'n' That
What
Fall is a marvelous time of the
year.
The leaves turn to beautiful
colours. Sunlight and bright blue
skies highlight the scenery. A
haze hangs over the hills.
So what's happened? Looks like
we've been cheated. We've gone
straight from summer to Novem-
ber weather. What have we done
to deserve all this?
*****
Snow fell again on Tuesday
afternoon. In case you missed the
first coming it was September 22
(at least in the Westfield area
where one family was out for a
Sunday drive).
*****
It either says something about
the good people of Blyth or about
the inflation psychology that's
gripping the nation but in the
week since the announcement
that subscription prices were
going to be increased for The
Standard we haven't had one
happened to
complaint form a subscriber,
We tend to think that it's just a
case of the people in Blyth
understanding that we're not
trying to get rich at their expense,
but just trying to keep up with
soaring prices.
Last week was a big week for
announcements of price
increases. The Toronto Star and
Globe and Mail both announced
they were going from 10 cents a
day to 15, We also heard that two.
other newspapers in the county
are about to raise their rates to
$10.
Those who want to take
advantage of the old rates for the
Standard can renew for up to two
years before 5 p.m., October 8.
*****
Clinton was swarming with
reporters on Tuesday of this week
as it once again received
wide -spread publicity about a
crime in the town: this time the
burning of a policeman's car.
Fall?
The big -city newspapers and
television and radio seem to love
this sort of thing. Such a small
incident would hardly rate a
paragraph in a city paper if it
happened in a city, but when it's
in a small town, it gets front-page
treatment, The media seems to
delight in trying to find corruption
in small towns...,as if it makes
the city better by knocking the
small towns.

Local farmer shows senior champion
Numbers were down slightly at
the Huron County Black and
White show held September 20 at
Seaford), where 49 Holsteins
were brought out by ten
exhibitors. The ringside was
smaller than usual. A number of
veteran exhibitors were not
showing, and the fact that the
white bean harvest was at full
swing was the reason for the
smaller turnout.
AIIan Wylie, Clifford, took both
Premier Breeder and Premier
Exhibitor awards for the third
year in succession, and he was
Premier Exhibitor in 1971.
Robert W. Carter, of Bobnamc
Farre, Blyth, showed the Senior
and Grand Champion female,
Brunsvcld Dividend Cora who
headed the class for aged cows.
Cora was a very dairy, with open
rib and a well attached, good
quality udder. The Reserve Grand
Agricultural Tidbits
Championship went to the first
prize three-year-old Rayel Rock -
man Debra, shown by Allan
Wylie. Debra was smooth and
well balanced and typed in closely
with the Champion.
The senior and junior calf
classes were well filled and was
open to registered 4-1-1 entries.
The first prize junior calf was
Heather Holme Pontiac Kate,
shown by Cliff McNeil and Sons,
Goderich. McNeil also showed
the winning senior calf, Pinebush
P.M. Peg, and the first prize
senior yearling, Heather Holme
Empress Cindy. Cindy was
selected as Junior Champion. She
was stylish, well balanced, and
had good strength of loin. The
Reserve Junior was the top junior
calf, kale, who was very
Outstanding, with smoothness
and a wealth of dairy character,
and was large for her age.
Two bull calves were shown,
with the entry of AIIan Wylie
standing first as Champion. He
was Raycl President Tony. Mrs,
Emma Franken, Auburn, showed
the second placing, Frankhaven
Royal Emperor, the Reserve.
Wylie repeated his win of first
Breeder's Herd, and Keith
Johnston, Bluevalc, showed the
winning dam and daughter pair.
Mrs. E. Franken showed the
first prize dry cow and the best
aged cow with over 100,000 lbs.
milk production. Elston Spciran,
Brussels, had the first prize
four-year-old; Joseph Van Osch,
Lucknow, the first two-year-old
heifer; L. Rchorst, Clinton, the
first junior yearling heifer; and C.
McNeill & Sons the first senior
heifer calf. The fourth prize aged
cow, Walker Lea Telstar Spark-
ette, took the Inter -Breed Best
Udder award for AIIan Wylie.
Not all Marketing Boards the same
WITH ADRIAN VOS
Marketing Boards being so
viciously attacked these days, we
better have a look at them.
They arc accused of driving up
the price by limiting production.
This is only t'he case in a few
Marketing Boards and then it is
done because the farmer has to
protect himself from going
bankrupt. Of the more than 20
marketing boards in Ontario only
four have production limiting
powers (quota's).
Tobacco limits acreage but sets
price by auction. Broilers sets
quota's and negotiate price with
processors. Eggs quota's, sets
price on a cost of production
formula. Turkeys are the same as
broilers.
M1 other boards act as a selling
agency and attempt to get the
best price possible by bargaining
with their customers in different
ways. The pork board on a
teletype system which works like
a remote control auction. The
bean board by selling in the
domestic and international
markets through the dealers and
brokers. Other .by negotiating
contracts for their members with
processors,
So you see folks that you should
beware of what most of the press
has been guilty of in attacking
marketing boards as such, be-
cause they don't like the manner
in which one board operates.
The demand of some of that
consumers sit on marketing
boards is as ridiculous as if they
demanded to sit on union
negotiating committees, for if
Massey -Harris or International
Harvester gives in to union
demands, it soon filters down to
the consumer in higher food
costs.
If they were to ask to be
represented on the councils that
oversee the marketing boards
there wouldn't be much opposi-
tion for they would soon see that
farriers always have been aksing
Tess return for their efforts and
investments than any other
business man. But to let an
outsider negotiate a price for my
product is a direct conflict of
interest and I for one wil strongly
oppose such a move,

1 wonder what the French
Consumers Association has to say'
about the beef that was dumped
in Le Havre harbour by irate
French farmers. if it was anything
like Plumptre and Brechin it must
be a dilly. Talk about militant
farmers, Europe has got them,
Beside the dumping of imported
Argentine beef, they stuck pigs
on Tamp posts, sprayed manure
on government buildings, hi-
jacked loads of livestock and
blocked roads and airfields with
trucks and tractors.
it worked though, for the
European Community banned all
imports of beef for three months,

beef and gave it to pensioners on
fixed incomes at low, low prices. 1

Farm workers shouldn't have
right to strike
Farmers do not take it upon
themselves to go on strike and
deprive Canadians of their daily
bread, Neither, therefore, do they
believe that farm workers have
this right. Frank Wall, first
vice-president of the Ontario
Federation of Agriculture, said at
the International Plowing Match
last week that granting this right
to strike would put the decision
over the life and death of
Canadians generally in the hands
of a few.
Recent news stories have
seriously misrepresented OFA's
position, Wall says, "OFA agrees
with Labor Minister Andras that
farm workers have the right to
organize and form a union. If they
do create a representative organ-
ization, then we will recognize it
as their legitimate spokesman."
Wall is also Chairman of the OFA
Labor Committee.
Farmers who hire employees
have long recognized that, like
themselves, their workers are
underpaid. As farm incomes have
improved over the past two years,
farmers have increased propor-
tionately the wages they pay.
Most farmers value their helpers
as an indispensible part of their
operation.
At least one organization on
public funds is actively trying to
stir up farm workers against the
farmers who hire them.
"I do not believe that the
Canadian taxpayer would freely
choose to spend his tax dollars on
these activities," Wall states.
"The labor situation on the
farm has its own difficulties but
the widespread alienation of
worker from employer is not one
of them.
"Usually the farmer employer
hires only a few men, he works
alongside them, and he knows the
worker and his family
personally."

Editorial
The shoe is on
the other foot
To long-time Canadian nationalists, the current battle of words and
worries between the U.S. and Arab oil producers is enough to make
them laugh...or cry.
A tertian note of panic has been creeping into the words of
politicians and into the news in American publications in the past year.
The reason: heavy investment in the U.S. by Arab oil-producing
countries who are reinvesting the profits they have made from
increased oil prices.
Already there is a bill being proposed in Congress which would insist
on an accounting system of investment in the U.S. so that it is easy to
keep track of it. if the present situation countinues, it seems likely
there will be demands very shortly for controls on foreign investment.
It's so funny because Americans have been putting down in
disparaging terms for years the attempts of other nations to control the
amount of foreign investment (mostly U.S.) in their countries. When
Canadian nationalists have called for controls, U.S.businessmen and
government leaders have tut -tutted and said it was short-sighted, the
actions of alarmists. international business, they said, it was a great
thing, to be encouraged, not regulated.
Americans have even invaded some small countries over the years to
protect the right of their businessmen to go in and operate the business
of the nation.
But now the shoe is on the other foot. The Arabs arc buying real
estate. They're buying bonds and securities. Someday soon they may
start buying controlling interests in some of the large multi -national
corporations the Americans have praised for years...perhaps even
some of the oil companies that have been taking money out of their
nations for many years.
Certainly the Arab oil pricing has caused problems and may even be
a good deal responsible for the present economic chaos in the world.
But it's hard to feel much sympathy for the U.S. (or Canada either for
that matter). The industrialized West has taken advantage of the
resource -producing nations for manyyears without proper compensa-
tion. They've provided us with the means of our wealth, yet haven't
shared in it.
So if suddenly they decide they're going to have a bigger slice of the
pie, who can blame them? If business is going to po beyond borders,
why shouldn't it be from Arab countries as well as the U.S., Canada,
Japan and other industrial giants?
Canadians are stingy
Canadians like to think they have a good name around the world.
For years we've been told that if we wear a Maple Leaf pin in our
lapels when we go abroad we'll be nearly mobbed with enthusiastic
natives who just love Canada and its people.
Certainly, Canada has a good reputation in general, but we shouldn't
get too swelled heads about it. We're engaged in many practices that
will win as many enemies as friends and we're down -right stingy in
many areas.
Much as made last week of the fact that Canada had decided to send
S500,000 in aid to the hurricane victims in Honduas. Frankly, for a rich
nation like Canada, the amount seems pretty insignificant....about two
and half cents per Canadian.
And while millions are starving in Africa, India, South America and
Asia, farmers are cutting back in production here or going out of
business because we can't pay them enough to keep them going, We
should be seeing to it they're getting paid good prices, producing to the
limit and exporting food abroad.
Then there's the news the Manpower and Immigration Minister
Robert Andras plans to cut back on immigration so that only those with
skills that will find immediate needs in the Canadian work force. It's a
tightening of a policy that has raped many under -developed nations for
many years.
Nations like Pakistan, India and Malasia have many starving or
destitute citizens, but we don't offer to help by taking in these people.
Instead, we rob them of the skilled people they have, the nurses,
doctors, skilled craftsmen they so badly need to help get their country
on the move.
No, we haven't much to be proud of in many fields of foreign policy.
Time for a crackdown
Huron County Police Chiefs complained again this week about the
lack of support they get from the courts in trying to stem crime in the
county.
There' is nothing new to the charges levelled by police chiefs in
Clinton, Goderich and Seaforth. They have been making the same
statements for at (east five years. Privately, members of the Ontario
Provincial Police will tell you the same thing. The police work hard to
try to catch a suspect, only to have the charge lessened or the sentence
made ridiculously light.
Not only that, but it may take a year or more before the charge is
even heard in court. Faced with the conditions, police find it hard to get
support from the citizens because no one wants to have to make five or
six appearances in court as a case is remanded time and again, and
then maybe see the culprit get off with a light sentence so that in a few
days he is on the street and perhaps looking for revenge,
The delays in court class in Huron are ridiculous. it is much harder to
say whether or not there is something wrong with the plea-bargaining
that goes on with the crown attorneys office since this is a highly
specialized field...yet some of the cases on record seem a little
ridiculous.
We're sitting on the edge of a cliff in Huron right now. If we don't
tighten up the process of law and order we may face more incidents
such as the burning of a Clinton policeman's car or the burning last
year of the car of Blyth's police chief after he had testified in an arson
case.
This sort of thing has got to be stopped and it seems the only way to
stop
thepolice to get a little more support, both from citizens
it is for
and from the judicial system.
BY BILL SMILEY
Time to catch up on some
correspondence. From the sub-
lime to the ridiculous.
Letter from old friend Gcorgc
Cadogan, of the North Shore
Leader, Newcastle, N.B.
"Dear Bill: Are you going to
the (newspaper) convention in
Toronto July 24-27? I have a room
at the Sheraton, but Elda won't
be going; you could use the other
bed. Perhaps you know the
Americans will be there, and we
expect about 2,000. delegates.
Speakers • will include Pierre
Trudeau, Nelson Rockefeller, and
Father McLaughlin, the priest
who is a speech writer for Richard
Nixon,"
Well, thanks, George. It would
have been sublime. The Sheraton
is a luxury hotel. In other words
they charge too much. But 1
certainly wouldn't have minded
seeing some of the old weekly
editors' gang, or what's left of it.
And I'd have rather enjoyed
knocking around with Flower
Boy. Rocky and the good Father.
Alas, 'twas not to be. Thanks to
our magnificent postal service, 1
received your letter about Aug.
4th.
And my, my what a lot of
changes have taken place since
that convention. Pierre, after a
sally into the streets where the
common people are, is safely back
in his ivory tower, or crystal
palace, scoffing at any sugges-
tions that he do something about
inflation.
Nelson Rockefeller is now
Vice -President of the United
States. And I hope Father
McLaughlin hung onto a parish.
For he sure is out of a job as a
speech writer for you -know -who,
As others see it
Maybe I could
change history
That 1 didn't make that
convention fills me with a deep
sense of frustration. if I'd been
able to get even one of that
illustrious trio alone for a
moment, i might have been able
to change the whole course of
history. Providing I had a club in
my hand.
Well, thanks again, George.
(George Cadogan is a modern
Don Quixote who is idealistic and
afraid of nothing. At present he is
galloping, lance at the full tilt,
against a monstrous windmill,
K.C. Irving, who practically owns
the Maritimes.) And give my love
to Elda and the kids and the
grandkids. Hang in there and
slug it out with olcl K.C.
it seems the New Brunswickers
are after me this year. Just the
other day I got a phone call, on
Saturday morning, from Gordon
Fairgrieves, publisher of the
Hartland (N.B) Observer. I didn't
even snarl at him, though it was 9
a.n. our time, and I'm not the
best of company at that hour on a
Saturday morning, niy day to
sleep in.
He soft talked nie, that man. It
took me a couple of minutes to
realize it, as I was still groggy
from watching the late, late show.
1 have an orgy every Friday night,
because 1 don't have to work on
Saturday. It's a compensation
thing from niy childhood, when
my mother called up the theatre
manager and told him not to let
me in to the Wednesday
afternoon matinee, because I was
not only skipping school to go, but
swiping a dime out of her purse
for admission..I was about ten.
Anyway, Gordon gets the
year's award for sweet-talk and
persistence. He invited me, and
my wife, and any kids who were
around, to come down to Hartland
for the Remembrance Day week-
end. It sounded pretty nice, the
way he put it.
As an after thought, he just
happened to mention they'd like
me to speak at the Legion dinner.
As carrot for the donkey, he
tossed off the fact that I'd be in
distinguished company, One of
their speakers in the past had
been Milton Gregg, V.C., former
Minister of Veterans' Affairs,
Crafty devil, Gordon, that is, not
Milton.
He extolled the beauty of the
Maritimes in November, the fact
that our bedroom at his house
would have a TV set, and various
other allurements.
1 was tempted. 'That's why I
called hint a devil. A pleasant
weekend in the Maritimes. A
change from the dull schedule,
New people, new faces, travel, 1
didn't say no. Said I'd let him
know. The wife - you know - don't
know what she has planned. (She
was in bed and not in the mood
for consultation, with her broken
ribs.)
I was tempted, and I stand
before you, brethern and sistern,
and I admit it. I put a few feelers,
while the old lady was asleep.
Called the travel agency. Yes, I
could just make it to Fredericton
and back on the weekend, without
losing a day's pay. And if
everything ran on time.
it would only cost nie about
three hundred bucks, if I took my
wife. And only six or eight hours
to write a speech. Not bad. And
free room and board down there.
Oh, ,yes, I was tempted,
And the good Gordon didn't
leave a stone unturned. Sane
night there was a telegram,
phoned from Toronto, backing up
the phone call. Three days later a
letter "It will be a pleasant break
for you all . . . you will enjoy
yourselves in our small town of
1,000 people ... obtain enough
copy for ten columns . , . find out
what New Brunswick is like . .
and also what one of the smallest
Legion branches in the province
does on Nov. 11th."
Well, if it does what most of the
other branches do, after the
parade to the cenotaph, I've
already been there, Gord,
Finally, I faced the Old
Battleaxe, laid out the project.
"Don't be ridiculous", she said.
"Don't you remember that we're
having a family reunion at
Grandad's this weekend?" 1
didn't.
Sorry, Gord, Sorry, chaps. But
I'm still tempted. That Last Post
in Hartland would be something.
The last post at Grandad's is the
last post in the fence.
Looking back over this column,
I wonder which is the sublime and
which is the ridiculous: a bunch of
politicians spouting platitudes at
the convention, or me sprinting to
N.B. to spout some fun to the
Hartland Legion?
The worst is at the top
The Richard Nixon era may be
finished in the United States, but
the memories of the various
capers and cover-ups will contin-
ue, we feel, for a long time to
come.
One of the things which
impressed everyone favorably
during the year of Watergate was
the high calibre of many of the
men in the U.S. Senate and
Congress as well as the Justices.
From Sam Erwin to Peter Rodino
no one could help but feel that
here were men of sterling
character with unflinaing high
moral standards -so very unlike
many of the persons in govern-
ment who had been named and
appointed to the very top
positions.
A recent United Church Obser-
ver has a significant editorial
comment to make in this regard
when it says:
"How impressive are so many
of their senators and congress-
men and counsellors! But how
can it happen, we wonder, that
among so many with great
potential and character such
mediocre men arrive at the top.
Just think of it: Spiro Agnew for
five years a heart-beat and a
breath away from . the most
powerful office in the western
world. His reputation was known
by many, yet there he was,
elected to the vice-presidency for
a second term, And a year ago
predicted as Nixon's successor.
And Richard Nixon who won
his "tricy Dickie" title for good
reason early in the McCarthy era.
It was all there then. But twice
the American people voted him
president.
A few months ago some
highly -placed Americans were
predicting that John Connally
would be the next Republican
nominee for president. And many
Democrats rub their hands with
anticipation that Senator Edward
Kennedy may be their man for
'76.
Just what does Senator
Kennedy have,. we ask, that
recommends him for the presi-
dency except ambition and the
Kennedy name?
There must be a million
Republicans, and a million
Democrats, maybe many
millions, with greater ability,
finer education, higher academic
qualifications, bf good character
and unblemished reputation who
will never have a chance at high
office. What is this demonic
influence in democracy that so
often sends the cream to the
bottom and the dregs to the top?
Many of the so-called free
world are quick to condemn the
juntas and the military coups, one
party democracies and bene-
volent dictatorships, of Asia,
Afric and South America. But it
should be know their people don't
covet our freedom with its murky
politics, in which little men climb
to the top destroying better men
on their way."

Churches ask
for aid
The members of Huron -Perth •
Presbytery, of the United Church
of Canada, meeting near
Goderich on Tuesday, September
24, passed a resolution asking the
Canadian Government "To do
everything possible to demon-
strate the concern and compas-
sion of the people of Canada to
the people of Honduras as they
seek to recover from their
disaster."
Rev, Rae Grant, of Listowel, in
presenting the resolution said
that he was concerned that as yet
he had not heard of any other
Church of Government aid. The
resolution was sent to the Prime
Minister, and local members of
Parliament. Presbytery also
pledged to support any Govern-
ment action. (The government
has since announced aid of
$500,000.)
In other business, members
learned that 15 people have
pre -registered for the "School of
Theology for Laity" to be held in
Central United Church, Stratford,
Rev. Murray Aspden of Millbank,
co-ordinator of the event, said
that there was still room for more
participants. The School, a
project of the Church's Iona
College at the University of
Windsor, is to be held Wednes-
day evenings from September 25
to November 13. It will consist of
a basic lecture course by Rev,
Fred Faist of Stratford on, "The
Firsts in Jesus Life", and a choice
of three electives: A, a discussion
of the lecture with Rev. Ross
Crosby, St. Marys, B., A
transactional Anaysis lab with the
book "1'm Okay • You're Okay"
taken by Rev. Aspden, and C.,
Values in Feature Films, with
Mrs. Sue Bonsteel, Stratford
librarian. The purpose of the
School is to help laity explore the
meaning of Christian life and
ministry.
The major report of the
day -long meeting was given by
six Commissioners to General
Council, held at Guelph in
August. (General Council is the
United Church's highest Court).
Mr, Harold Knieley, Goderich,
Mrs. Cora Thistle, Stratford, and
Revs., Don Beck, Hensall, Don
Deas, Mitchell, Bruce Guy,
Dashwood, and Fred Faist,
Stratford, attended. Mr, Knisley

tor, "What a time to be. in the
Church"
.`. land use bill, submitted by
Mrs. Cora Thistle was passed at
Council. If read; "That the United
Church, through tit: appropriate
channels, express its. concern
regarding the necessity for
preserving our remaining arable
land, so that succeeding genera-
tions may be fed."
;lurch i. s,'on was discussed at
cunsiderabic length. In June of

From the
Minister's Study
BY TED HOOGSTEEN
BLYTH CHRISTIAN REFORMED CHURCH
The sacrament of baptism is a witness to Christ, a witness of grace
and mercy which has an eternal staying power. The blood of Christ
washes away sin not only in this life but forever. It is a tremendously
strong sign and seal of God's love.
But questions come regarding the power of the promise in baptism
when responsible adults break down churches because they listen only
half-heartedly to the promise of God.
How can a young person ignore the powerful call of Christ's blood,
and do so all through life?
How many parents lay awake at night pleading with God that his
promise may not be in vain, that sons and daughters may also have
faith that is alive in Christ?
What young person can nullify for himself/herself all education in
Scriptures and the Church, and do damage to the Church which Christ
founded by his shed blood on the cross?
No matter how we look at the situation, it is a stunning event when
even one person, whether carelessly or consciously, denies Christ in
order to satisfy pleasures and desires of the moment.
The promise of Christ which children carry away with them from the
baptismal font is an indelible mark. It is a promise of God directed to
parents and children alike, secured in the sprinkled blood of Christ,
The Saviour speaks a message of foregiveness, of hope, and of peace,
and the promise of baptism stands as long as we have life.

ANN LANDERS
Says smokers can quit
DEAR ANN LANDERS: 1'd bet my bottom dollar that at least 98 per
cent of your cigaret•smoking readers have been telling people exactly
how they fell about their enslavement by those small cylinders of paper
wrapped around a mixture of nicotine and tar -filled weeds. It goes like
this:
"i could quit in a minute if my doctor told me 1 had to, or else,"
"1 go through maybe two or three packs a day, but I don't acutally
smoke more than a third of 'em. I light up and they burn in the
ashtray,"
"1 suppose 1 should quit smoking, but a person has to die of
something. Besides I enjoy it."
These same people are saying something quite different, when they
talk to themselves. Here's the truth:
"These damn things have to be bad for me or else why would 1 hack
and cough every morning—and sometimes during the day?"
"Gee, how 1 envy Bill. He's been off 'cm for five years. How come he
can clo it and 1 can't?"
"The fact that 1 have to race out of a theater at intermission to get a
nicotine boost is a sure sign I'm hooked. I hate being so weak."
After 40 years of puffing away, by simply comparing the two types of
statements you just read, 1 tossed my last pack into the ashcan 16
months ago and haven't lit up since. --WEST OF CHICAGO
DEAR WEST: Everyone who reads this column recognizes himself
sooner or later. I hope those who recognized themselves today will do
something about it. Thank you for putting their feet to the fire.
DEAR ANN LANDERS: 1 am a 20 -year-old male with a very
embarrassing problem. It is also depressing because I can't talk to
anyone about it. Please don't suggest 1 go to my doctor because it is not
medical, And 1 hope you won't suggest a shrink. Even though I know
the problem is all in my head, it doesn't warrant a psychiatric
treatment.
1 have what is commonly referred to as "a bashful kidney," I simply
cannot urinate in the presence of other males without complete
privacy..
is there anything 1 can do about this? Can I cure myself? I'd
appreciate some advice. -.ILK. IN MINN.
DEAR B.K.: My consultants tell me that the harder you try, the more
difficulty you'll have, best bet is
Unless you can suddenly surprise yourself and relax, your
to use the private stalls and accept that which you cannot change.
(P.S. There are worse things in life than not being able to urinate
before an audience.)
DEAR ANN LANDERS: So you're stumped by the tobacco -chewing
husband and want a solution. Solution to what? To get him to stop
chewing or to stop spitting all over the house?
If hubby is•scared of cancer he should look into the statistics of
cancer ofthe mouth, If it's the second problem, the nauseated wife
should place a spittoon in every room and insist that HE clean the
darned things out.
If push comes to shove, she might tell him to think in terms of a trial
separation --so he can mull over his preference --her or the chewing
tobacco. Personally, I wouldn't live with the slob. —BEEN THERE
IN
BOSTON
DEAR BEEN: Your signature threw me. For the life of me, 1 can't
imagine anyone in the Land of the Bean and the Cod chewing tobacco,
but your suggestions are good
*and *1 thank you.
Even if drinking is the "in" thing in your crowd, it needn't crow you
out. Learn the facts from Ann Landers's booklet, "Booze and You --For

iy T
Knox anniversary services held
"Whats Good About the
Church?" was the theme of the
morning service, when Rev,
Albert Cook of Ashfield was the
speaker at the Anniversary
services of Knox United Church,
Belgrave, Sunday, September 29.
After World War 11, said Mr.
Cook, the church grew in a rel-
igious bonanza. Suggestions were
made for constructing homes with
a private Chapel, which could also
be used as a bomb shelter, den or
play room, Perhaps our churches
are too often sought only when
in personal distress or as
consolation for the aged.
Possibly poor advertising is
responsible for any unsuccessful
.efforts of the church he said.
Publication of failures occur, but
the church still survives. He
illustrated his intimations by
saying that if a doctor announced
that his practice was slipping he
had no money and his patients
were dying; but said call me if
you're sick, his business would
soon wane.
The blind, blundering church
still stands as "The Rock of
Ages". The church lifts people
from despair, keeps humanitari-
anism alive, gives as no other
agency can do and points us to
christ as no other in•:titution can
do. Only the church disturbs us
with a higher goal, inspires us to
the fulfilment of a higher dream,
or cures a man's social ills. Only
the church ministers to man's
needs,
A plea to make room for the
church in our lives closed his
discourse. The mixed choir, with
Mrs, Lynda Lentz at the organ
sang "Lift up Your Heads", She
also accompanied soloist Karen
Tyndall of Clinton who sang
"Bless This House,"
The evening service was under
the charge of Rev. Ralph King of
Godcrich, assisted by Rev. John
Roberts, minister of Knox United
with soloist George Cull of
Belgrave who sang the solo in
the anthem "The Shephard's
Care" and "The' Holy City",
contributed as his solo,
The scripture for the evening

service was Philipians, Chapter
2:5 and John Chapter 14:6, Rev,
King chose as his theme, "Is
There Anybody There." Atheism
says, "There is no God." You and
1 are orphans alone, Agnosticism
says: "We just don't know"
Thcrc is unfeeling, remote power,
Power has created but left us on
our own.
Jesus canis and said "Our
Father". He changed the face of
the world and the outlook of
miinkind, The word "Father"
gathers highest hopes, God seeks
after his children and wins by

seven class.

two placed fourth.
MILK
The milk has once more created
a problem of higher prices at
Hullett Central School, Each half
pint now costs 11 cents for the
school to buy and 10 cents for the
students, This means that the
Student's Council will ,make up
the one cent. To raise money,
they are planning school dances,
films and rummage sales. which,
hopefully, will solve the problem.
The Hullett Central School's
Student Council election took
place Friday, September 13.
Almost all of the walls
displayed slogans for president,
secretary and treasurer. Running
for president were Karen Durnin,
Betty Konarski, Calvin Lovett and
Lorna Riley.
Students trying for secretary
were Sharon Ellis, Judy Jewitt,
Nancy Preszcator and Wilfred
Teisma. Greg Hallam, Nancy
Sottiaux and Debbie Westerhout
were running for treasurer.
The results of Fridays election
arc as follows: Karen Durnin,
President; Calvin Lovett, Vice-
president; Nancy Preszcator,
secretary; Sharon Ellis, editor
and Greg Hallam, treasurer.
Now we have an enthusiastic
Student's Council for Hullett
Central School.

Behind the scenes
In praise of
BY KEITH ROULSTON
There's a character on televi-
sion these days with the
ridiculous name of George Apple.
Anyone with a name like that you
might expect to be a little wierd,
and George is.
Apple's Way is a hokcy,
sometimes cornball kind of show,
the kind that brings smirking
derision from big -city, know-it-all
critics. l'he show deals with a
small-town boy who leaves home
to become an architect then
comes home with his family from
the swinging life of California to
the mid -western small town
where he was born and raised,
George is, to use a rather
dubious compliment, a do-
gooder. He's the kind of guy who
is always on his white horse
crusading for something or other.
He got in trouble a few episodes
ago because he saw a U.F.O. and
thought his duty to report it. In
return for doing his duty he and
his family were ridiculed and he
almost lost an important contract
because his client thought he was
a nut. In the end, in the way of
family television shows, he was
vindicated.
George is, of course, a little too
good to be true. There are a few
persons (getting fewer all the
time) who can't sec an injustice
without fighting it, can't see an
outstretched hand without help-
ing. Those who are so often
ridiculed as thanked. The Apple
kids are the brunt of jokes at
school because of their crusading
father.
George is a little unreal
because, being a television hero,
he is always right and in the end,
his judgement is always proved
smart. It isn't that way in real life.
Real-life crusaders can make
mistakes, can back causes that
shouldn't be backed. Be taken in

35th wedding
anniversary
Mr. and Mrs. Alvin Snell of
Blyth were guests of honour at a
surprise dinner at the Duke of
Bedford Hotel Goderich on
Sunday, it being the occasion of
their 35th wedding anniversary
on Monday, September 30.
A lovely table arrangement of
carnations and daisies and rose
corsages for the guests of honour
added to the special event.
The family returned to their
home when a social time was
spent. The home was decorated
with an anniversary cake, a
bouquet of roses, and cards. The
family presented them with a gift
of money.
Those present for the occasion
were: Mr. and Mrs. Jack,
Johnson, Kari and Kurt, London;
Mr, and Mrs Jim Timpany, Dean
and Denccn, Aylmer; Mr. and
Mrs. Harvey Snell, Shane and
Shannon; Mr. and Mrs. Clifford
Snell, Kriss and Craig; Mr. and
Mrs. Herb Shannon; Mrs. Walter
Cook; and Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd
Walden, all from Blyth.

crusaders
by unscrupulous promoters. Used
by special interest groups who
play on the sympathies and
energies of the well-meaning
crusaders to get things done that
are not always in the best
interests of everyone.
Still, I have a lot of respect for
the George Apple's, both real and
fictionalized versions on televi-
sion. Today there are too many
people who are too busy doing
their own thing to worry about
others, to take time for commun-
ity action, to care enough to help
make their town, their country,
their world a little better place.
The quest of a colour television in
every living room and two cars in
every garage seems so much
more important than the quest of
building a better community.
I have sympathy for the George
Apple's of life too, because as a
newspaper editor can get himself
in the same sort of box that
George Apple does, only more
often. The newspaper editor who
speaks out on issues when he
feels something must be said is
sticking his neck way out and
waiting for someone to chop it off.
He may be attacked in public or
through the "letters" column of
his own newspaper, or even
sometimes through anonymous
telephone calls. More often there
is just talk behind the editors back
about his being a loudmouth, a
know-it-all, a nosey busy -body
who can't keep his mouth shut.
But editors, like citizen crusa-
ders, can't be worried about
winning popularity contests or
hearing a few nasty things said
about them. A thick skin isn't
something that comes with the
job, but it tends to develop over
the years.
A friend recently remarked that
he hears people say that yours
. truely had "more guts than...."
his voice trailed off. He didn't
have to finish. I knew the word
was "brains". A few years ago
the remark might have hurt a
little. Today, much like George
Apple, I'll take the "guts" part as
a compliment and disregard the
"brains" .part.
