No one hurt Miraculously no one was injured when this pickup truck with camper on back overturned on Queen Street about 7 p.m. ,on Saturday night. The truck, driven by Eric R. Stewart of RR 3, Auburn, went out of control and rolled over on the northbound lane of the highway. Blyth firemen rushed to the scene to prevent a possible fire. Ontario Provincial Police from Wingham detachment estimated damage at $3000. --staff photo. Power plant would kill industry, beanproducers, processors say The Ontario Bean growing industry put on a strong light Tuesday against the possibility of an Ontario Hydro generating paint being located along the shores of soother)) Lake Huron. i,) ;t tour of possible locations of the plant and in the area between Grand Bend and Hayfield and of bean processing facilities and bean growing areas, the Ontario Bean Marketing Board explained to members of Parliament, canning industry representa- tives and members of the press the effects OI' such a development on the bean industry. Pat Lynch of the Ministry of Agriculture and Food office in Perth County explained that nitrogen dioxide which is produced by the internal combustion engine, when combined\with air, produces nitrogen oxide PETER HANNAM "another Golden Horseshoe" and ozone. Beans are particularly sensitive to ozone and contact with the gas during the crucial blooming period of the beans in early August will cause the bean plants to stop growing, the leaves to yellow and drop off and the younger pods to abort. A test conducted in a bean field near Kippen in 1973 showed these results from 8-12 parts per million of ozone for a period of only four hours. Yield in the fields closest to the ozone meter was down 50 per cent. He pointed out that ozone from U.S. industrial developments had virtually killed all production of beans of Essex and Kent county. Huron and Perth counties are now the major white bean producing areas. Mr. Lynch said that the present population levels in southwestern Ontario levels of ozone reach 4 to 6 parts per hundred million. A power plant in the Grand Bend area could increase this by 1.5 parts per hundred million, he said. He also questioned the effects on • the market from the knowledge that some beans had been grown near a nuclear plant. He pointed out too that "You can change agricultural land into wildlife and urban areas at any time but you can never successfully turn urban land back into agricultural land." Peter Hannam, a director of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture spoke at a dinner at the Dominion Hotel, Zurich as part of the tour. He pointed out that in the past urban areas have been built up around transportation routes. In future, he said, it seems growth areas will be determined by easy access to energy sources. He pointed out the growth that has accompanied the Nanticoke generating station and the Douglas Point nuclear plant. One noted planning expert, he said, has predicted that if an "Energy Centre" is located on the lower Lake Huron, a second "Golden Horseshoe" will be established from Windsor to Douglas Point. Mr. Hannam said that there are only 10.5 acres of class one and two soil left in Ontario and that it takes 1.15 acres of land to feed each person. With the population of Ontario expected to reach 11.4 million by 1991 it appears Ontario will have to import food even if every acre now in production remains in production. New urban development caused by the Huron county power plant would only speed the loss of farmland, he said. Puppet theatre, cabaret at Memorial Hall Blyth area children will have a chance to see some first-rate entertainment at Memorial Hall on Saturday as part of the Summer Festival. Ruth Klassen and the Chantecleer Puppet Theatre come to Blyth for two shows on Saturday, at 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. The show is called "Logging" with Paul Bunyan.

Phone bills up 10% Area telephone customers face higher phone bills this month. Maitland Teleservices Limited has finally got approval for a ten percent rate increase from the Ontario Telephone Service Commission, OTSC.. The Maitland Teleservices Ltd. serves Brussel, Blyth and Auburn and has been seeking a 15 per cent increase for more than a year. An MTL official said this is the first increase in several years. This ten per cent increase was termed "interim", meaning, it will be in effect until a further request for increased rates is submitted to the OTSC and accepted. H.J. Ross, the local manager said he couldn't say how great an increase they asked for or when a further request for increase will be submitted. Mr. Ross said the increase was demanded because the company needed more money to function since, like everything else, costs have gone up. He named the cost of equipment, wages and wires as some of the items effecting their costs. Mr., Ross wouldn't say what the company's budget was but said 96 per cent of the company is owned by Bell Canada and the rest by the public. The last annual meeting was held in March, in Toronto but the rate increase wasn't discussed, he said. When seeking a rate increase of 15 per cent last August President G. H. Newton said the phone company's tax bill increased 150 per cent in the past two years. This request was turned down after local residents sent in letter of protest to the OTSC. This spring a meeting was held in Brussels with local residents so they could air their views on a rate increase. Mr. Ross said this rate increase will help, Before returning to the OTSC, the company will have to have more facts and figures. It will have to convince the commission that people are not getting the service they are demanding because of lack of funds, He said there are pockets of individual service out in the country, that can't be supplied at the moment. "It's improvement of service where we seem to be running into problems," Mr. Ross said, This rate increase which is effective July 1, will raise the private home phone rate from $4.25 to $4.65. Last year's denied request would have raised it to $4.90. Both the two-party and the rural multi-party phones will increase 30 cents. The business phone rate will increase 75 cents for a private and 60 cents for a two-party line phone.' Tlie service charge for the installation of new phones increases from $11 to $12.50 while last year the MTS requested an increase to $16.50, To install an extension phone it will cost $10.50 and a new business phone $20.50. Color costs and now residents will pay $10.65 for a colored phone, an increase from $9.70. There have also been increases in equipment and services. Owners of princess phones will pay ten cents more per month for this style phone. i LARRY'S RADIO & TV. SALES & SERVICE BLYTH 523.9640 ELECTROHOMEI PG. 2. THE BLYTH STANDARD, JULY 23, 1975.

BOS Each morning from July 2 to 15 the Blyth Public School was full of happy youngsters and busy teachers. The annual Vacation Bible School was taking place. Every morning at 9 a.ni. close to one hundred children, teachers, helpers and pastors gathered in the gyne, Under Mrs. Wittich's able leadership, several new songs were learned and sung joyfully' together. Then Mr. Carson, Mr. Hoogsteen, or Mr. Wittich taught a Biblical truth with the use of visual aids such as film strips, puppets, tree branch- es and bubbles. A collection was held each day. Both Friday's the money was for "Bibles in Bolivia." The other day's collec- tion was used to cover expenses. As the children trouped to one of the four classrooms, the teachers had their mind on the lesson for the day. The theme for all classes was "And God says 1 Promise". By studying how people in the Bible believed and lived by God's promise, the children were shown how faithful God was, and still is, in keeping His promises. Many different things were made during craft period to illustrate the lesson. By singing and praying, working and playing together, all learned. ' On Tuesday evening parents, friends and relatives were invited to watch a program presented by the children and see the work they had done. Thanks to Mrs. Michie and Mr. Lawrie for making it possible for us to use the school.

Approaching its centennial celebrations, Clinton is presenting a new face to the world, and a pleasant face it is. Thanks in a good part to the pushing, pleading and hard work of the former Blyth resident Gordon Duern, Clinton is in the process of remodelling its main street, The town has decided on a theme, a theme of restoring the buildings to their former elegance and doing away with the "modern" look. The results are stunning, The Clinton stores, many of which were looking a little dowdy, now present a totally different image of the town. A visitor now gets the impression that the people of the town are very proud of their community and that they are progressive while at the sante time proud of the past. The new street planters with locust trees in them add some greenery to the street and take away from the hard concrete look that tends to dominate most downtown areas. By comparison, Blyth looks a little bad. Our merchants in many ways have been more progressive than Clinton's over the years, well, most of them anyway. They've renovated and refronted their stores and as a result most of the stores look good individually. But the street as a whole tends to take on a bit of a hodge-podge look to it. There is certainly no greenery to warns up the look of our main street, just hard concrete. The restoration; of Clinton and the work that has been going on to beautify the Square in Goderich means Blyth is being left behind. It means that it is that much harder to convince people to shop in Blyth rather than Clinton and Goderich. And that means the businesses along main street are losing money. Blyth, with the two mills, the summer festival and the thresher reunion probably hosts more visitors a year than any of the inland towns of this area. We should be trying to impress these people, to make them come back to Blyth again, It would make good sense, both from a matter of pride in our town and economics fdr Blyth to investigate this sort of project. The cost need not be high, tax money would not be involved. The main prerequisite is imagination...and determination. • HoHum, what's new Well, everything is normal, The Toronto Globe and Mail has just called for the resignation of Agriculture Minister Eugene Whelan. This, of course, is not news. The Globe'and Mail has been out to get Mr. Whelan for a long time. At least once a week it seems the editorial board of the paper offers Prime Minister Trudeau some advice to can mean Gene. Luckily for Canadian farmers, Mr. Trudeau either doesn't read the Globe and Mail or doesn't heed the paper's advice. The latest call came about as a result of the decision to impose quotas on the importation of eggs from the United States. The Globe and Mail, always conscious of its urban Toronto readership, thought the move was wrong. It didn't have the guts, however, to fight the move soley on the fact it would hurt consumers by increasing prices. It chose instead to argue the move was bad for farmers. .Now the Globe and Mail giving advice on the farm situation is like Richard Nixon giving a lecture in honesty in politics: they just haven't the slightest idea of what they're talking about. Once you get past the basic premise that eggs come from chickens, the writers of the Globe and Mail get a little foggy. They question the wisdom of the quotas saying the U.S. is sure to retaliate. (and they suggest the Americans would be very justified). Could it be, however, that the egg quota was ►ur retaliation for their beef ban? Could it be a bargaining tool on Mr. Yhelan's part? Certainly there are dangers in Mr. Whelan's move, but Whelan isn't :he dumb farmer the Globe seems to think he is. He knows a lot more about farming than the newspaper's editors will ever know, and he's done a good deal more for farmers than the writers have ever done. vlost people familiar with farming in Canada will back Mr. Whelan's nove, at least until they see what happens next. Villain as angel A newspaper in a neighbouring •.ov, n, a paper of strong Tory leanings, came up with an interesting proposition last week. The editor proposed in an editorial that Finance Minister John Turner should walk across the floor of the House of Commons and join the Conservatives. He then proposed that Mr. Turner become the leader of the Conservatives. How many Conservatives, one wonders would agree with such an idea? After Mr. Turner's last budget which caused such a fuss there would certainly be a few who would object. The editor, however, suggested that many people felt the budget was not Mr. Turner's at all but forced on him by that nasty old• Pierre Trudeau who is bent on destroying Mr. Turner who might someday succeed him. As stated earlier, an interesting, if improbable suggestion. One wonders, however, if the editor will think Mr. Turner such a fine prime ministerial candidate if and when he goes on to become leader of the Liberals? The greening Those were the days of Clinton 5 years ago WEDNESDAY, JULY 22, 1970 The Blyth Horticultural Society met Wednesday, July 8 in the Memorial Hall, The president Mrs. Robert Carter opened the meeting with a poem entitled, "He who plants a rose". There was a display of roses. Mrs. M. Richmond and Mrs. Robert Carter judged this. Prizes were given to Mrs. H. Campbell, Mrs. A. Montgomery and Mrs. E. Wright. Plans were made for a flower show to be held in Blyth Memorial Hall on Saturday, September 5. Mrs. Wm. Empey of Auburn, Mrs, • Roy Easom and Mrs, Howard Campbell of Blyth packed and shipped a 13 pound bale to go to Angola, Africa. The Londesboro U.C.W. also contri- buted articles to the bale. Fire late last Thursday evening destroyed a large L-shaped barn on the farm of Mr. and Mrs. Jim McCall about 1'/2 miles east of Blyth on County Road 25. Two hundred pigs owned by a neighbour, Ed Szusz were in the barn and were lost in the fire. All were ready for market. A threshing machine owned by Duke Buffinga was also housed in the building and was lost in the fire. 10 years ago WEDNESDAY, JULY 21, 1965 Approximately $45 was realiz- ed last Saturday night when the 13th of Hullett and the Blyth Lions Club tangled in a ball game at the Blyth ball park. All proceeds went towards the artificial ice fund. The 13th pushed across the winning run i1 the last half of the ninth inning to what proved to be a nip and tuck contest. The ,final score was not made known for sure, but 3.2 or 4-3 would be a respectable, even though slightly untrue guess. The Londesboro Scouts, numbering 18, spent the weekend with their leaders, Jack Lee and Gordon Shobbrook at Bandon. On Saturday evening Ken Scott accompanied them with his banjo in a sing -song, and on Sunday morning Harry Lear took charge of the service using the Lord's Prayer for his theme. 20_ years ago WEDNESDAY, JULY 27, 1955 According to a communication received by Town Clerk- Trcasitrer George Sloan from the Department of Highways office in Toronto, the application for a blinker light at the corner of Queen and Dinsley Streets, the main intersection in Blyth, has been turned down by the Department. The reason given is that visibility at the approaches to the main intersection are good, and that accidents, or the lack of them, at the corner, does not warrant the installation. The Church of God, Blyth has something unusual in the way of a church project. They have a two acre patch of turnips at the farm of Adolph Fangrad. Last Wednes- day evening the members of the church met there to hoe and thin the turnips. Some 15 people went to work in the turnip patch while others did the babysitting and preparing of lunch. Another project that has been completed is 400 broilers, the proceeds of $60 to go to the Missionary Society. Today is a red letter day for local C.P.R. Section Foreman Herbert Dexter, who retires after 35 years with the Company. Appointment of a successor for Mr, Dexter has not yet been named by the Railway Company. 30 years ago WEDNESDAY, JULY 25, 1945 Next Sunday, Rev. A. E. Menzies will conduct the final service of his pastorate in Londesboro and will move during the week to take up pastoral duties at Charing Cross in the Kent Presbytery. Mr. Harvey McCallum, our local butcher is busily engaged installing a new refrigeration plant in his butcher shop. This change has been made necessary due to the fact that the old plant finally refused to function at all, and it was necessary to make the trip to Toronto to purchase new equipment, which is now being installed, Letters to the editor THE EDITOR: a curfew in Blyth, if ]s there.. , Y not, why not? There appears to be a gang of young boys who have nothing to do Tate at night except wonder around, annoying senior citizens, Aluminum screen door bottoms have been kicked in, plants have been removed off front veran- dahs, plant stands have been stolen. They have also been window peeping, which can be very frightening to older people living alone. These boys are public school boys. Where are their parents? Do they realize where there children are gaining their enter- tainment? What sort of citizens are we going to have growing up in Blyth if this is allowed to continue? This has been going on for some time we arc FINALLY FED UP. P.S. These are only a few of the small frustrating things that have been going on but small things lead to greater and they could end up, in more serious trouble, reformatory school for instance. THE EDITOR: Things of worth seem to be achieved through hai .' +cork. Our own Canadian history can be used to serve LIS with many examples of bravery and achievement, It's all too easy to smother these achievements with advancements of another kind, this being decay and destruction. Some work to achieve, others work to decay and destroy. History also serves us with examples of this brand of survival. Often while working to achieve betterment, we have to use drastic measures. Betterment isn't always a smooth road. 1t' we don't heed the results of our labour and the results of others labour and gauge our present actions upon them, then we will in all probability become extinct over a period of time. At best we will go into a new dark age, where we will regret not having been more responsible as individuals. As I see it, our very survival is being thrcateded by not having a deterrent to crime. Some, in their blindness, sow and reap crime. 1t is building up, and to ignore the murders and assaults is to be a coward and let yourself be led to the slaughter. Didn't Christ forcefully chase the money -chan- gers out of the temple? We are doing well in so many areas of life, why throw it all down the drain to those less able than ourselves? We can re -instate capital punishment, which will be a good deterrent until we can manage 'something better. Abolition is no answer, statistics support this. It's probably fostered by the weak, who don't want to be responsible for life's direction; or the ignorant, who don't have the perception to make wise decisions The lives of policemen are hanging in the balance over this issue. Some talk of police brutality as if that was an issue. To me, this is a symptom of a refusal to make decisions about the blacker side of life. Policemen have a dirty job right now, bequeathed then by the irrespon- sibility of people who could change things with their laws, but prefer to let the police shoulder the hard work so they won't have to be touched by it. If the police decided to quit, what would we do then? SINCERELY, BRENDON MOORE CALGARY, ALBERTA. THE BLYTH STANDARD, JULY 23, 1975.

Dredging of Goderich harbour to begin A contract for the dredging of the entrance channel to the Goderich, Ont., harbour has been awarded, it was announced today by the Honourable C.M. Drury, Minister of Public Works. The contract for $473,100 was awar- ded to J.P. Porter (Ontario) Ltd. It - was the lowest of three bids, the highest being $539,500. The dredging is necessary to maintain channel depths in the entrance to Goderich harbour. Spoil will be dispersed five miles away from the harbour to avoid the fish spawning grounds. The work is being undertaken to restore grade depth in the entrance channel. At present vessels using the harbour are operating on a restricted depth basis and can handle only partial ship loadings. Several groundings have occurred recently. Goderich harbour is a main commercial harbour on Lake Huron. Primary cargoes consist of grain inbound and salt outbound, The bids were reviewed by the Government's Interdepartmental Committee on dredging before the contract was awarded. Plans for the work were prepared by the London office of the Ontario Region of Public Works Canada, under the direc- tion of W.I. Slywchuk. Project manager is T.E.

Huronview residents of sound mind, 90 -year-old and over, provided the researchers their study material. Armed with prepared questionnaires and a tape recorder, students Trina Connolly, Mary Anne Cummings, Elizabeth Davidson, Glenna Ellis, Barb Lawson, Sandy Marshall and Michelle Smith invaded the County's Senior Citizens' Home, to finally emerge several intervies later with 60 hours of recordings. "Every hour of tape requires 20 hours of analysis," Mr. O'Neil said, and in the several hundred feet of tape that have been played so far, he has come across quite a few interesting facts. "Did you know that people used to be "married plain" with no attendants and no cake?" he asked. "And did you also know that they were married at 5 in the morning so that they could catch the 6 a.nt, train out of Stratford for their honeymoon trip? "What about the term path - master?" Before there was a Department of Highways, you had to look after the road in front of your farm. If you didn't, the pathmaster would come along with a work crew and look after it for you, but charge you with the bill for doing it," And if anyone appreciated this upkeep of the roads, it must have been the highwayman (a robber mounted on horseback who ambushed highway travellers), who was quite active in pioneer clays throughout the County. In addition, Mr. O'Neil has found that "grave running", (drinking while driving through One day, they saw this big the countryside) is a word unique creature with a pouch hopping to this arca but its use has spread around, and pointing to it asked a because regions of people aren't Pygmie what the beast was called, The little fellow replied, "kangaroo," and that's how we got the name for a kangaroo," Mr. O'Neil said. "Another study of the Pygmy language done somewhat later by a group of professional linguists discovered that the Pygmy word "kanga roo," translated as "I'm sorry, but 1 don't understand what you're asking me," which is exactly what that little guy was trying to tell the amateurs." even be drawn around areas Even so, he added that the within Huron which pronounce ., Maritimes had been studied and their words differently. that several other surveys were "People think that regional still progressing throughout the dialects come from one root, but country. that's nonsense.

THE BLYTH STANDARD, JULY 23, 1975. Runaway daughers a growing problem DEAR ANN LANDERS: Two weeks ago 1 walked into my 15 -year-old daughter's room and found an empty bed and a two-page note. She wrote of her fears of being sent to a detention home and ended her letter with these words: "At least I feel better knowing you won't have to worry about what I'm going to do next." 1 haven't seen or heard from my daughter since. 1 have no idea where she is or what she is doing. All attempts to get information have failed. The police were notified immediately but have no leads, Since she reads your column faithfully I'm hoping she will see this letter and at least let me know she is all right. i also want her to know 1 realize now that I didn't try hard enough to be understanding and if she does cone home 1 will be more considerate of her individuality. She had no money that 1 know of when she left. I'm praying she is safe, Please print this as soon as possible. 1 miss her. --Anxious Father DEAR FATHER: Do you have any idea how many empty beds and notes were discovered in the U.S. the day you discovered yours? Would you believe approximately 3,250? And nearly 33 per cent of :hose who left home are 14 years of age -- or younger. Girls outnumber boys two to one. Here is a message for all runaways: You can dial 1-800-231-6946. There will be no charge. A telephone operator will call your parents anywhere in the United States and give them a message. (Most runaways say, "Tell Mom and Dad I'm O.K. and not to worry"). No one will trace your call or try to force you to go home regardless of your age. 1 hope and pray that thousands of runaways will follow these instructions and tell their folks, "I'm coming home. I've had enough of bumming around." DEAR ANN: 1 was amused .at your definition of "chutzpah: A To schlep means to drag or to person who kills his mother and father and throws himself on the mercy of the court because he's an orphan," Then you asked if anyone wanted to tackle the word "schlep," Well -- here's my definition: New nursing directors has responsible post BY CHRIS ZDEB Barbara Cooper is the most important woman on staff at the Clinton Public Hospital and has been since April 28, when she took over the post of Director of Nursing from recently retired Kathleen Elliott. She is responsible for 50 to 75 nurses who work full and part time at the hospital and spends most of her time in maintaining a qualified staff. Miss Cooper admits however, that she feels the upkeep of quality nursing care being given at the hospital is the most important of her duties, which number the control of the nursing budget; analysis of nursing care; and the updating of nursing policy and standards. The 37 -year-old native of Arvida, Quebec was a teacher and program co-ordinator at the Stratford Nursing Division of Conestoga College before coming to Clinton, and she said she finds the pressures of her present job Tess than those demanded of her when she was a nursing instruct- or. "There still is a demand on me to keep performing but the tension is less on getting things done," she said. "As a teacher 1 had a feeling of productivity but there was also a feeling -of never being done. Here, I can go home and leave my job behind me, yet know that the hospital is in good hands." Home, is an old farm house rp_mt F\ .®► built around- the turn of the century that stands east of Exeter in Perth County. "My roommate and I have been renovating the house for about a year now," Miss Cooper said "We're putting in a garden and we really have our hands full with three dogs and three cats." She is also kept busy as president of the Perth chapter of the Registered Nurses Associ- ation, a position she has held since June of 1974. A more integral part of her life though is being a Christian. "i'm a Christian; I love the Lord Jesus and I would like to see this love permeate my career," she said. At this point, her career has come to rest at the Clinton Hospital and Miss Cooper said she would probably remain here for quite a number of years. "I have no plans to change or move higher up the administra- tion ladder. 1 like the people I'ni working with and nay job very much and I just want to do a good job. She finds the Clinton Hospital small and more intimate than most, and is pleased with the positive attitude in the staff and nursing care. "My job is mostly what expected it to be," Miss Cooper said, and even though she has been at the hospital for 10 weeks she retains the same enthusiasm for her job that she had on the first day.

JENE MILLER, M.D. I am finding that one of the great deficits in American culture is in the arca of structures for celebrating. After working, accumulating graduate credits and spending several years writing a book which could serve as a disserta- tion, I get my long-awaited doctorate, and don't really know how to "celebrate" it! 1 know I'm not ever again going to take a study for "credit", though 1 will probably be studying somewhere all my life. And I don't want to write another book again. (If this one gets published, I'll let you know!). What i miss is a chance to "internalize", or "really feel in my heart what i know in my head". Early man internalized his victories by his dances, which told of the hunt or the battle. Jivaro Indians held a tsantsa feast and displayed the shrunken head of their enemy. Ncw Guinea head hunters would feast on the body of a slain enemy in the sight of his tribe. Ancient Greeks would sponsor a drama or contract for a statue. Medieval rulers would have an arc built across some street. American culture is so consumer -oriented that about all one can do is buy something "to celebrate", or get drunk, or take a trip, We have bought the big lie that feelings are less real than things, We seek to establish the realities of our existence in terms of possessions or purchasing. Maybe God's great gift to America will be the failure of things to satisfy human relation- ships. If so, maybe people will again learn that celebration -- whether of achievement, recon- ciliation, or just being, is found in the sharing of life in love.

The end of the tube should have a . point of hardwood riveted to it, and a few holes, 1/4 inch in diameter, made just above the hardwood. The tube should be inserted into the hay. Drop a candy or oven, thermometer attached to a string into the tube and leave it for five minutes. :lifter five minutes, the temper- ature should be noted and compared to the following scale: if temperature is 150 degrees, the danger zone is near and observa- tions should be made every day; at 160 degrees, inspections should be made every four hours; at 175 degrees, fire pockets may be anticipated and the fire pumper called to wet down the hay. If the temperature reaches 185 degrees, the hay should be removed and the fire pumper available, since flames will develop when the fire pockets contact the air, A temperature of 210 degrees means the hay is almost sure to ignite. Workmen should never work alone and should always have ropes tied around their waists as a safety measure when working on the haymow, Long planks should be placed over the hay for men to. stand on and observe or remove the hay.

[HURON • BRUCE] The Health Disciplines Act was proclaimed this week which gives lay people more say in governing medicine, dentistry, nursing, optometry and pharmacy. This power is conferred to a seven member board of lay people to hear appeals from persons dissatisfied with the way their complaints have been handled by the governing college of any of the five professions. The board would play no part in any legal action such as a malpractice suit, A member of any one of the five professions also has the right to appeal to the board if dissatisfied with the way the complaints committee of his college has acted. The Legislature gave third reading approval to the Environ- mental Assessment Act 1975 which according to the Minister is Canada's first comprehensive programme of environmtrntal impact studies. The Act will eventually require environmental studies of all major projects public and private except those specifically exempted in the public interest. The bill will apply first to projects of the Provincial Govern - Ontario Hydro.. Next will come municipal governments and fin- ally it will include the private sector. The Legislature adjourned for the summer break this week with the probability of not returning until after a provincial election, expected this fall. Raspberry tips Most home gardeners could use a little ads ice on raspberry harvesting, suggests Dr. . W. D. Evans, Dcpartn at of Horticul- tural Science, On►,,rio Agricultur- al College, "For a start, raspberries must be harvested when they are ripe. They will not ripen if they are picked slightly immature, as will tomatoes, for example. And if they're left on the plant too long, they may fall prey to the sap beetle," he says, There are many different varieties of raspberries and it is sometimes difficult to determine when they're ripe. Color is not always a good guide. For example, two common garden varieties are different colors when ripe: Comet is bright red, while Boyne is dark red. Probably the best criterion is whether or not the berries will separate easily from the plant. If so, they're ripe; if not, wait a few days. liUtsltl'et3'�liat1iS aiidiioTd no more than a pint. if the capacity is greater, bruising and other damage may result.

Two new cleaning units were installed to better take care of area farmers, and the new dryer .which was installed will take care of 1600 bushels of grain, corn or beans in an hour. According to Archie Couper, general manager of the Hensall District Co - Operative, the additional facilities should enable the organization to adequately look after farmer's crops in the future. Mr. Couper added that with the enlarged facilities the Co -Op will be in a position to accommodate more farmers than in the past. The new facilities have just been completed, in time for this season's wheat crop. Workmen and contractors have been working at a feverish pace to complete the job before harvest season began. General contractor on the new facil- ities was Dorsser's Welding Company Ltd., of Blenheim, while the firm of Thomas-Dorssers Silos Company Ltd., were in charge of constructing the new silos. Much of the equipment in the proj- ect was supplied by Sullivan, Strong Scott, of Toronto, who specialize in bulk materials handling and processing systems. A Hensall contractor, Harold Knight, was in charge of all electrical work on the project, with Howden Electrical Supply of London supplying the material for the prominent Hensall contractor. Another Hensall contractor, C.E. Reid and Sons, were responsible for the excavation, and supplying of sand and gravel materials on the site. The cement for the new silos all came from the Redi Mix plant of C.A. McDowell Ltd., at Exeter, while re- inforcing steel was supplied by Dahmer Steel Company, of Kitchener. In summing up the completion of the project, Mr. Couper added that all contractors and sub -contractors were most co-operative in seeing that the facilities would be ready for the beg- inning of the harvest season. Second expansion in little over year The completion of the new S500,000 facilities for the handling of grain, corn and beans at the Hensall District Co -Operative marks the second major expansion for the organization in a little over one year. In March of 1974 the Co -Op opened a new building which houses all offices, a large store NEW HYDRAULIC LIFT CAPABLE OF HANDLING ANY SIZE VEHICLE PLANT SUPERINTENDENT PAUL DUCHARME SHOWS GENERAL MANAGER ARCHIE COUPER DETAILS OF NEW SCALES and warehouse facilities, close to the location of their other facilities in the north end of Hensall. The project cost the Co -Op about 5109,000. The building has a total of 11,000 square feet of floor space. and includes a fireproof record room where all important papers are kept. Also included in the building is a special meeting room for the board of directors.

(Note: The first official entry was from Tom Gillan, Norfolk Avenue, Galt -Cam- bridge.) The contest, which is co-sponsored by the Waterloo Siskins Jr. B. Hockey Club and Radio Station CHYM-FM, Kitchener -Waterloo -Cambridge, has been in the planning stages for many months now as a major community and fund-raising enterprise for the Siskins, which is the longest continuously - operating Hockey Club in the OHA. Among the personalities who are expected to assist in the MC'ing of the day -long contest will be CHYM•FM personalities Don Bird, ,Keith Sterling, Brock Doddington, Doug Lee, Chris Chivers and Dave Booth. As well as the contest itself, which is expected to attract talented competitors from a wide area, there is to be a dance after the competition, featuring two well- known groups, "Dixie Fliers" from London and the local "Goldrush". Originally intended solely as a 5 -string, banjo contest, there was enough interest shown by com- petitors playing 4 -string, that the Siskins decided to create a separate catego: y, . with equal prize money. First prize in both categories will be $500, with second prize $250 and third prize $100. With the enthusiasm shown by every- one who hears about it, there seems to be little doubt now that the contest should become an annual affair. Advance ticket locations will be set up shortly for those who wish to attend but not compete. Would-be competitors can get entry forms by writing "Banjo Contest, Box 51, Water'oo, Ontario". It may be necessary to limit the number of entries, so first-come, first -entered. (Contact: Barry Pauley, 743-2611 or 885.5787). Hunking and other relatives before returning to Tanzania, Africa.

It was pretty heady stuff (not the beer) for a I7 or I8 year old. Some of the boys had a little trouble making it up the gang -plank.

For a complete "how to" - including care and selection of your salad vegetables, and some easy and exciting recipes • write to the Information Branch, Ministry of Agriculture and Food, Parliament Buildings, Toronto, Ontario M7A A5, for a copy of the folder "Ontario Summer Salads". I11 this attractive pamphlet food specialists at the' Ontario Food Council tell you how to mix and match greens, and suggest their combination with custom -blended Tomato care important A little bit of basic plant care now will go a long way to help get full potential out of your tomato plants, says Dr. H. Ticssen, Department of Horticultural Science, Ontario Agricultural College. Dr. Ticssen advises that vine -type tomatoes be staked to keep the fruit off the ground and to conserve space. To avoid root damage, staking should be completed as early as possible. He recommends the use of stiff wire for stakes, or the construc- tion of a trellis, At this time of year, the plants should be topped, Dr. Tiessen says. Since it takes anywhere from 45 to 60 days from the time the flower opens until the fruit is produced, flowers, which appear after the first of August should be removed, Those starting in August or later may not have a chance to grow to full maturity. Suckers - small growths be- tween the main stens and the leaves - should be removed as soon as possible to permit the use of more energy in the production of fruit. Remove the suckers when they arc small to ` keep the damaged arca to a minimum, Salad greens need care Salad greens must be absolute- ly dry, otherwise the salad dressing won't cling to the leaves, So, after washing salad greens, shake well to remove as much moisture as possible, Roll them up gently in several thicknesses of paper towel and put them in the refrigerator to crisp, Food specialists at the Ontario Food Council, Ministry of Agriculture and Food say it's a good idea to do all this as soon as you bring the greens home, so that the lettuces will always be crisp and ready for instant use. When you wash Iceberg or Boston lettuce, you can remove the core or not - it's up to you. If the lettuce is cored, drain it very well, shaking, so that as much water as possible is removed from the inner layers of the heads. When washing Romaine or Leaf lettuce, separate into leaves, rinse and pat dry each leaf, It may take time, but the payoff conies in the keeping quality and in always being ready to toss a salad at a moment's notice. dressings and other colorful salad ingredients, •I'hc following recipe is not included in the folder, but is a great favorite with the food specialists.

PG. 13. guilt for Smiley as he summer Lake St. Clair, and the first signs of a breeze again. No sleep, and a 12 -hour day ahead, but who needed it? Then there was a summer working in a factory in Toronto. Most of the factory was air conditioned (it had become practicable by then) as the plant turned out film and cameras. But guess who got to work in the machine shop, down in the bowels, with the lathes and the welding machines and the temperature about 96? In hot weather, and I swear it was hot all summer, the guys down there were in a foul mood throughout their shift. I honestly believe that, in the various summer jobs I've had, I have sweated enough to fill the tank of one of those new solar -heated homes they're talk- ing about • something like 40,000 gallons, And there's another type I feel sorry for. 'That's the weekly newspaper editor. Of course, they're so spoiled now that some of them even have, as understand, air conditioning in their offices. But in my (lay, the office took the full blast of the summer sun 1 1 1 1 from about noon on. Outside on the street, long cool girls in shorts and tops, and little, cool, brown kids in even less, sauntered along, oblivious to the heat. Inside, the editor stewed and sizzled, trying to shake off picccs of paper that stuck to his damp hands, trying to explain to advertisers why the paper was coaling out late, wondering if there would be any advertising next week, and trying to wring an editorial out of a soggy brain. Maybe I'll check things out with some of my old weekly colleagues at the convention this summer in Saskatoon. I'll expect a cool answer. Yes, sympathy, but no guilt feeling. Now, if you'll excuse me, 1'have to take my grandbaby out to the beach, where we will sit 111 the cool sand with the waves washing over our legs, and look al the girls in bikinis, and dig holes in the wet sand, and splash each other, and jabber at each other in that special language that nobody else seems to understand, and give not a single thought to all the poor, steamy, smelly masses working today. Never mind, chaps, I've got a rotten sunburn. PORK BUTT CHOPS FRESH SLICED PORK LIVER CANADA GRADE A 16.7 LB.j FROZEN CHICKENS SAVARIN CHICKEN•TURKEY•STEAK .V.

ART CARNEY PG, 16. THE BLYTH STANDARD, JULY 23, 1975. Going up Work is well advanced` on the new building for the United Co-operatives of Ontario branch In Bclgrave. The new plant is necessitated by tremendous growth in the business in the past three BY KEITH ROULSTON Mention the word professional, and most of us these days think of the word money. I mean we think of professional hockey players and their astono• mical salaries, other professional athletes with doctors, lawyers and accountants, all among the high income brackets. But professionalism also stand for a special kind of dedication to one's task no matter what the reward. That kind of profession- alism is rarely seen these days. That kind of professionalism is close at hand this summer with the actors of the Blyth .Summer Festival in town. Professional actors bring the thoughts to mind of the Hollywood stars, their big salaries, big cars and big seaside homes. But the actors here in Blyth are a long way from that. They draw in their weekly pay I envelope less money than some people get on unemployment insurance. You'd be hard pressed to get someone to do an ordinary job from 9 to 5 on such a salary, yet these people worked from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. during the rehearsal period and even now when they have a show to perform at night, they're usually in the theatre in the afternoon brushing up on their parts or rehearsing for the Cabaret show coming up next week. They enjoy their work and put in overtime on weekends to help teach amateurs more about theatre in the weekly workshops that are a part of the Blyth program. And small though their pay- checks may be, they face the fact that there may be no cheques at all for a while after they leave here. Imagine trying to survive in Toronto with no money coming in. Being an actor in Canada is a precarious profession. If you can get steady work, you're very lucky and if 'you can get steady work at .much more than • minimum wage, you're luckier still. Television, especially tele- vision commercials, provides a better pay day, but few people are needed for the small number of jobs available and the competition is tough. There are very few people in Canada who can support a family on the money These are real professionals they make through acting. Yet these actors, all young, have pledged their lives to acting and have the skills that would make them well rewarded in nearly any other field of endevonr and they work harder at what they're doing than 99 per cent of people do. In this day and age when people only seem to care about the money they get, the working conditions and the fringe benefits and care little about the kind of job they give in return, it's certainly a pleasant to know some people still care more about a good job than a good pay cheque. Huronview residents enjoy band concert The Huronview Rhythm Band helped to provide the music for Monday afternoons get together and were accompanied by Elsie Henderson.

Huron Trade Mart to continue Though the first Huron County Trade Mart held in Clinton on May 28 scented something less than a boosting success at the time, a poll of the participants shows they are in favour of giving it another try. Huron county Development Officer Spence Cummings an- nounced results of a poll taken al the Mart by the Ministry of Industry and Tourism which shows that 60 per cent of those taking part are in favour of staking it an annual event. The other 40 per cent would be in I'avourof a Marl every other year. No one was 1'or dropping the event altogether. In other questions asked, the survey showed that 68 per cent of those laking part were in favour of opening the show to the public for 6 hours, 20 per cent for 12 hours and about 12 per cent diel not want the event opened at all. higty-two per cent of. the exhibitors were in favour of the inclusion of wholesalers in elle show with six percent against and 12 per cent Rot caring.

Rates for residential power users will jump 24.1 per cent on bills issued effective September 1. For commercial users the rate increase isn't quite so high but is still 19.8 per cent. It will also cost more to run the street lights: 26.9 jeer cent according to P.U.C. treasurer Larry Walsh. And those who have water heaters on a flat rate will see an increase o1' 38.4 per cent. The rates are the Blyth utility's answer for what would be deficit year if revenues continued at the present rate. Mr. Walsh explained that the new increase takes in a past increase from Ontario Hydro paid by the P.U.C. and the rate Hydro is now asking for to be effective January 1, 1976. 1-lydro hacl asked for a 29 per cent increase for next year but is now trying to cut that figure down. Children to present theatre Two fantasy plays, created by a group of local children, will be presented this Saturday, Aug. 2 at 11 a.m. at the Blyth Memorial Community Hall. Admission is fret. The plays grew out of children's workshops held over the past three weeks at the hall as part of the Blyth Summer Festival. Through 'improvisations the children evolved the first play, The World of the Ancients, which explores the theme of evil magical power. It will be performed by up to 15 children. The second play, The True King, was written by Michael Kowalchuk, of Blyth. It started! as simply a transcribing of the improvk;ational work but ended up as a separat4 script. It has a cast of three. The workshops were led by actor Jim Schaefer. EC) WEDNESDAY, JULY 30, 1975. Choir from Switzerland it was as if a little bit of Switzerland had landed in the middle of Huron county last Friday when two busloads of Swiss holidayers dropped in at the farm of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Meier near Belgrave. The 54 persons on the tour are connected with a choir from the town of Lotzwil near Berne in Switzerland. The choir's 30 members are in Canada to perform in such places as Mitchell, Broadhagen, Elmira and the forum at Ontario Place. The Swiss visitors are staying in homes Insurance for Brucellos Most insurance companies specializing in livestock have dropped coverage for brucellosis, a highly contagious disease which attacks the reproductive organs of cattle. But a check of insurance companies revealed that one in Brampton is offering policies through Lloyd's of London, ' England. "As far as I know, we are the only ones offering brucellosis insurance," Ronald Lori [left] and Wendy Hcsselwood of Blyth have been getting good tans doing good deeds this summer with the help of an Opportunities For Youth grant.

Five Huron herds .hit by'Brucellosis Brucellosis is on the upswing in Huron County according to Dr. Mark Raithby of Agriculture Canada's Health of Animals guests in the Mitchell arca and touring Ontario from that starting point. Earlier in the week the group had made a trip to Ottawa, a trip which choir president Viktor Remund said would be the equivalent of travelling across Switzerland four times. The group visited Bainton Ltd. mill in Blyth before stopping for a huge buffet lunch at the Meier farm on highway 4 north of Blyth. While in Canada they will be performing in the four Swiss languages. is tough to get Brown of Ronald H. Brown Insurance said. The policy has become popular with. Ontario farmers owning high-priced purebred cattle since brucellosis outbreaks flared in the Ottawa Valley more than a year ago, he said. There are now 554 herds under brucellosisquarantine in the province and some dairy('armers, including one of the largest - Flinkert Farms Ltd. of Drayton - have lost entire herds to the disease. Branch in Seaforth. Dr. Raithby said in a telephone interview with the Rural Voice July 25 that three herds in the county had been "depopu- lated" in the past month and two more are about to be. He said that 15 to 20 herds are under quarantine. Although he said there was a sharp increase in the incidence of the disease, Dr. Raithby expressed confidence that the disease is under control. The percentage of the total county -wide cow population involved is very small, he said. Milk from all dairy herds is tested once a month to try to catch the disease early, he said. in addition sales barns at Listowel and Kitchener now perform the "card" test which can tell right on the spot if a cattle beast is infected. Eventually, he said, all sales barns will the testing equipment but it is very expensive at the present time. The incidence of the disease being spread by beef cattle, he said, is not serious. Most beef cows that abort a calf, he noted, are soon shipped to market and all carcusses are checked at stock yards for the disease. If disease shows up, it can quickly be traced back to the source. Full details of the extent of the disease will be known after the first of the month, • he said, when statistics are released. Editorial Page 4 Church Page 7 `Classified Page 13 t Entertainment Page 15 Festival attendance remarkable Blyth Summer Festival enters its final week of productions for 1975 with glowing optimism thanks to higher than expected attendance during the first three weeks. Writer director Stephen Thorne summed up the feeling of the cast and crew when he said Monday night that the attendance so far has been' tremendous, The average attendance through last Saturday night's performance was nearly 160 persons a night. Mr. Thorne said this was "unheard of for a first year summer theatre". He compared the figure to the Georgian theatre festival in Barrie where with a year-round population of 25000 and a huge summer tourist trade the theatre still averaged only about 70-80 a night. What's more, attendance in Blyth has been growing steadily. Last week's box office receipts were the best yet and Friday night's performance of Mostly in Clover was within a few scattered seats of being sold out in the 410 -seat theatre. Artistic Director James Roy said the increased attendance has brought the .group within range of reaching its budget and another good week this week would mean Tess money would have to be raised from donations to meet the expenses. Mr. Thorne pointed out that most summer theatres lose Targe amounts of money in their .first season of operation. The past week has not been without some disappointments, however. The group was invited to Goderich to put on' its Country Cabaret at the Huron County Jail. Attendance was disappointing to say the least, The lack of money from this venture means a big hole to be filled in meeting the budget. Miller reports Huron crops. in good shape Huron County crops are generally in very good condition according to Mike Miller Associate Agricultural Representa- tive at the Ministry of Agriculture and Food office in Clinton. Corn in particular is in excellent condition and quite a bit ahead of normal. The condition of the bean crop varies widely. Because of wet weather in June there was about a six-week period between the first plantings and the last. Consequently the first crops planted are doing quite well while the latter crops are behind. Harvesting will be over a long period of time, he says. Spring grain has suffered some wind damage although overall it is a better than average crop. With a stretch of dry weather, the wheat crop will be a good one. The wheat is now dead ripe in most places, Mr. Miller said and dry weather would help the harvest. Moisture levels have been a little high in wheat harvested so far. • Second cut hay will have a higher yield than normal this year because of the good rainfall. Pasture too seems to be in fairly good shape for this time of year. In general, Mr. Miller said, crop problems seem to be at a minimum this year with the number of telephone calls to the Ministry office down significantly over previous, years, he said. 3. 2.

There seems to be a credibility gap between what local politicians in most areas do, and what they say. The politicians, whether they be township, village or town councillors, school board trustees or any other elected official often bewail the fact that people just don't seem to be interested in the affairs of their community. Why don't people show up at the meetings, they wonder? Why don't people take time to come to them with their problems? Yet on the other hand, there seems to be a glorious lack of effort on the part of the politicians to attract the people. We don't know of one council or public body of any size around here that gives regular notice of when its meeting will be held. From the township council to the county school board there is little or no attempt made to let people know when a meeting is coning up. One school board trustee the other day said that people really shouldn't have to be reminded because the meeting is held the same day each month. That's like saying a store doesn't need to advertise because it's been located in the same place for years. People need to be reminded. If they didn't get notices of meetings regularly, probably even some of the trustees and the councillors would forget to show up. Whether it be a notice on the town bulletin board, a small ad in the local paper or something on radio and television, there should be at least some effort to let people know when a meeting is coming up. Then if they don't show up, well at least they had the chance. Wasting our future A colleague the other day wondered if all the effort to save farmland was really worth the fuss. After all, she reasoned, it wasn't long ago that farmers clai,med they couldn't grow white beans in most areas of Huron county and now they're protesting against an Ontario Hydro generating plant because it will kill the lucrative white bean industry which now occupies a good deal of the county's land. Technology, she pointed out, is always advancing. If we lose more farmland we'll likely find ways of making what's left produce more. She hati a point of course, but she also misses a few. For one thing, if we continue to use up farmland at the rate we now are, we soon won't , have AN 1 farmland left in Ontario, and technology, advanced as it is, hasn't yet •orate near finding a way to grow crops on the rocks of northern, central and eastern Ontario. Secondly, sure we may be able to improve production from the land remaining if we continue to put land under concrete for power stations, parking lots and subdivisions, but it will be a tremendous cost. And why bother? This precious technology we hear so much about could just as easily be used to make it easier to build our power plants and cities on the rocks of northern, central and eastern Ontario as try to make the best of a bad situation once the agricultural land is used up. We seem to insist in this country on getting ourselves into trouble so we can show how smart we are at getting out of a disastrous situation, something like the heros of the James Bond movies who are always getting captured by the villains so they can show their ingenious ways of escaping. Sure we may find a way out, but what if we can't? When we discovered we didn't have much oil left, we still had natural gas. When we found out the natural gas was running out, we could still turn to coal, or nuclear power or water power. But if we run out of land, what have we to turn to. If suddenly we find in 30 years time that all the farmland has been used up for urban purposes, we'll suddenly be in a panic situation and there will be no alternative. We will have cooked our own goose because you just can't turn a city street back into a farm field. Why take that risk, when we can build our cities and our power plants elsewhere? Start planning now The Blyth Summer Festival which ends this weekend can only be counted a tremendous success. Audience attendance has been building steadily and remarkably considering the lack of publicity provided by the media of larger centres. Already the board of directors is beginning to lay plans for a bigger and better festival next year. The season may be longer and is likely to include more than two plays. The other aspects of the festival such as art displays and music will also likely be much more prominent. The time is right too for the rest of the community to start planning for next year. This first season has been a good one in that it has meant a new feeling of excitment in the Blyth summer; it has meant excellent theatre for those who've always liked theatre and introduced many people to theatre who always thought they wouldn't like it. But the festival can ,do much more. It can be of much greater benefit to the community as a major boost for the economy. To do this, however, there must be a wider effort made by the whole community. We need to concentrate on making Blyth an interesting place for those who come to visit the Festival. We must try to find ways to make sure the people who visit the Festival stay a while because only then do we get full advantage of the fact that thousands of people are coming into the community. These people have money to spend. If they don't spend it in Blyth, they will find other places to spend it. But in whatever we do, we must avoid making Blyth a tourist trap. Any efforts to spur the tourist industry must be done with care and good taste. It'Sa big challenge, but one that's worth accepting. Few were willing to predict the success we've had so far, That success was due in large measure to the enthusiasm of the people of the Blyth community. If we devote this same enthusiasm to planning for next year and the years to come. the whole community will benefit enormously. • Apicnic is Stratford As others see it The supreme penalty The growing public debate over whether or not the death penalty should be carried out in Canada is bringing into focus a whole range of legal arguments, as well as the spiritual torment of several persons whose decisions have sonic bearing on the matter. Opinion, of course, ranges from the position of police officers who arc demanding ging employed andinagain that wherehanthe law says it must be, to that of Solicitor General Warren Allmand who has said he will resign rather than approve a legal killing. Present Canadian law, of course, demands the death penalty for the convicted killers of policemen and prison guards, but every death sentence since 1963 has been commuted by the federal cabinet to life imprison- ment. The recent decision that a superior court cannot overrule a jury court's decision to acquit (as in the case of Dr. Henry Morgcntaler) has led to the logical argument that the cabinet should not have the right to overrule a jury court's decision to convict. Along with Mr. Allmand we believe that neither we as humans, nor our courts as agents of the legal process have the right to take a human life. But we also believe that never should a convicted killer be permitted to return to society after a compara- tively few years of imprisonment for the rest of their days on earth. As a deterrent that course would carry a pretty stiff punch - and at the same time would permit us to avoid those few terrible instances of error when it was found that a person was innocent long after he or she was hanged, In the meantime the federal cabinet faces one of its most obvious tests following the conviction last week of the two men who shot and killed two policemen in New Brunswick and buried them in shallow graves. -Wingham Advance -Times Those. were the days 5 years- ago WEDNESDAY, JULY 29,1970 A large crowd of over 500 people suffered through one of the hottest nights of the year last c.,+„rda„ ,,,a.,.. +t,,,,, ria,.a the best .n the budding.

Drought conditions, particularly in Eastern Ontario, have seriously curtailed normal production, with the result that livestock feeders find it difficult to secure adequate supplies to meet their over -winter requirements. The Blyth Telephone System employees are at present install- ing underground cabling between Auburn and Blyth, a distance of six miles. This distance requires approximately 35,000 feet of cabling, The new underground cabling will replace the existing aerial cable and will provide for additional trunk circuits both local and long distance. 20 years ago WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 3,1955 Speaking to the members of the Huron County Health Unit Board at Goderich, Dr, R.

Mr, and Mrs. Philp (Del and Ruby) were married on July 31, 1930 at Owen Sound, Mr. Philp came to Blyth on May 11, 1929 when he purchased his present drug business from the late R. M. MacKay. 30 years ago WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 1, 1945 Mr, Ed Wendorf will open his new Sc to $1.00 store this Saturday, August 4 with a full new line of stock. Mr. Wendorf has completely renovated the interior of the store which was previously occupied by the White Bros, Butcher Shop. Miss Velma Naylor of Blyth has been employed by Mr. Wendorf to assist in the store. Mr. C. E. Hodgins has received the result of his first shipment of cheese, which -has proved most satisfactory. The shipment con- tained 123 boxes, or approxi- mately 11,000 Oounds, and was sold to W. T. Hart of the Kraft Cheese Company of Woodstock. At a special meeting of the Village Council held on Saturday night, By -Law No, 6, 1945, was read a third time and passed giving the council the authority to purchase a fire truck for use in protecting village property. A delegation went to Woodstock and inspected the fire truck which is a second-hand Reo Bickle Combination Pump Hose and Chemical Fire Truck. It has been purchased at a price of $1500.

PG. 6. THI; tiLYTH STANDARD, JULY 30, 1975. Bill gives his summary of summer safety hints Herewith Smiley's bi•annual Sumner Safety Hints. Various departments of government: Ag- riculture, Lands and Forests, Tourism and Tripe, Fire and Water --annually send out a list of things to do to protect your life and various other things during the hot season. it is racy opinion that these lists are not only repetitious and redundant, but overlapping and underpinning, so once in a while l try to publish a few Summer Safety Tips that can be used as filler by all lazy, hot, tired editors. Even though the summer is half over, and thousands of people have drowned, or nearly drowned, I think a few swim- ming suggestions would not come amiss. Never forget that amiss is as good as anile. So my first tip is that if you're going to swim antile. make sure you don't go amiss. I think that requires no Further explantation. Speaking of amiss, never try to stake love either reclining in a or in a reclining canoe. In the first instance, if the thing rolls over, which it usually does, you are caught in a death -clutch and will have to punch your partner in the belly to break the hold. This is considered bad forst. It is also embarrassing, not to say - dangerous, if your partner is swifter with a left hook than you are. In the second place • a reclining canoe - it is obviously leaking, and you shouldn't be out there in the first place, Much better to confine your canoe love -making to a standing position. Then, if women's equilibriumation seems to be taking over • that is, if there is any chance that you are going to be the least bit upset, jump overboard and swim like hell for the nearest lifeguard. Now for diving. Never dive into unknown waters. Many a man you'll meet on the streets, whimpering, limping, middle-- aged, hcadscarred. Ask hint what the matter is, and he'll respond: "1 dived into unknown waters." This is his euphemism for admitting he is nrtrried. 'fry not to dive into a swimming pool. Use a diving pool.

On August 1, an historical plaque marking the founding cif Clinton a century ago will be unveiled on the lawn of Wesley•- Willis United church. The plaque, which will be erected by the Ontario Heritage Foundation under the newly created ministry of culture and recreation, will be unveiled by Jack Gibbings of Stratford, a great-grandson of Jonas Gibbings one of the earliest men to settle in Clinton, and the son of Ben Gibbings who served as the town's mayor from 1912 to 1913. MPP Jack Riddell, MP Robert McKinley, and Prof, K.C. A. Dawson an associate professor of anthropoplogy at Lakehead Uni- ersity, representing the Ontario Heritage Foundation, are all expected to attend the 2 pail. unveiling ceremonies. The erection of the historic plaque will recognize the joint efforts of Muriel Trott, Jerry Fremlin, Doris Batkin and Kay Lockhart, who were a driving force behind the project. The new plaque will be the fou�i•th to be placed in the Clinton area. A cairn on the lawn of Ontario Street United was erected in memory of Clinton's pioneers; while an historical plaque at the sante site recognizes the contrib- utions of Horatio Emmons I-lale (1817-1896) whose intensive stu- dy of the languages and customs of the Six Nations of the Grand River were compiled into the classic book "An Iroquois Book of Rites" which was published in 1883. A final historical reminder in the form of a cairn on Highway 4 near Huronview honours Major- General Sir William Dillon Otter, whose distinguished military ser- vice spanned the Fenian Raids of 1866-1870 and the Boer War (1899-1902).

It may not be Olympic grace and style, but don't have a hole in my head from hitting rocks. Never take a person out over his or her depth. 1n other words, if your mother-in-law is only five feet tall and can't swim,, don't take her out to where it is six feet deep. Just take her out where it is live feet deep, hand her some lead weights, and tell her to do push-ups. Enough about swimming. How about boating? Well, the same principles apply there. Never put more than 12 people' in a 12 toot boat, six people in a six foot boat, or more than 88 people in a bar that is built for 44. This way you can not only be safe but sorry. If it is a sailboat, do not load it up with sailors. Sailors are usually drunk and disorderly, according to the police records of all the ports of the world.

SMITH SEED & GRAIN PORT ALBERT - 529-7135 From the Minister's Study Are you afraid of dying? BY REV. FRED CARSON Death is not a thing to be feared; it is an inevitable part of living and should be acknowledged in the same manner as breathing and eating. This is a philosophy which very few persons would expound: most of us probably do fear the last of a long list of events in our life and would do anything to avoid the situation. Indeed, it is jokingly staled that none of us wants to Iivc to the age of ninety --until we reach our 89th birthday. Get the point? If I may speculate for a moment, it would seem that most of us fear death, because of the unknown clement. In othcrwor•ds, do we, at death just cease to exist, or do we enter some other sphere of life? And, if there is life after death, what form will it take? Will we spend eternity in a beautiful state of peace and joy, or are we destined for a place of selfishness and separation, a black alyss, Accepting the existence of eternal life, some would claim that everyone enters the Utopian type of existence. This teaching is contrary to the word of God, however, and is simply perpetuated by those who refuse to accept the truth. It gives them a false sense of security and permits them to continue to believe that they are 'good', without sin, not needing a Savior. What arrogance! Where do you stand? Arc you one of these poor misguided souls, to whom Jesus ftddresses himself, "He who believes in him is not condemned; he who docs not believe is condemned already." (John 3:18). Where are you going to spend eternity? Will you be in heaven praising god with all the saints, or are you headed in to the black hole of hell? The decision is yours, Salvation or death, either way it is a personal decision, Say yes to Jesus by repenting of your sins and asking him to conte into your heart and you will experience new life receiving the assurance that you will spend eternity with the Father. Moreover, you may claim the promise that you need "Fear not...for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the Kingdom." (Luke 12:32). The Empty Pew Looking at Love THE EMPTY PEW BY W. JENE MILLER, PII.D. Nov there vas this church that was having a little trouble getting together on things. WcII, the Administrative Board needed to do something very creative, so they appointed a committee. And, it just so happened that this committee carte up with a perfect solution. They adopted the rule that any individual could ask another to leave the church if that individual didn't like the other. The only stipulation was that the individual also had to be ready to Icavc if someone asked 'ingredients the key in making jam The biggest problem in making a perfect batch of jam or jelly is getting a good gel, according to food specialists at the Ontario Food council, Ministry of Agricul- ture and Food, The secret of gelling Tics in the ingredients • fruit, sugar and, sometimes, commercial pectin and acid. Never alter the quantity of these called for in a good jam or jelly recipe if you want a successful product, Apart front giving jam its special flavor, fruit also provides pectin for thickening. Pectin is essential for good gel formation, and is formed naturally in all fruits, but more in sonic than in others, Craba,r►ples, gooseberries, plums, apples and cranberries, for example, contain Targe a- mounts. Other fruits, such as blueberries, strawberries, cher- ries and peaches, contain little pectin and give thick jams only if combined with fruit rich in pectin or with commercial pectin in a powder or liquid form. They will, however, give a pleasant runny jam without the added pectin or fruit. 'I'hc natural acid in fruits also determines how the gel forms. Fruits lacking in natural acid, such as peaches, raspberries, blueberries, pears and sweet cherries usually need the help of lemon, lime or orange juice to get a good gel. Commercial pectin contains acid which adds to the level of acid in fruits, so jams or jellies made with this product usually don't require the addi- tional acid. Sugar also aids in gel formation, develops flavor and acts as a preservative. and TIIE BLYTII STANDARD, JULY 30, 1975.
