Prospects not good for arena as inspection continues The first inspection of the Blyth arena by Maitland -Engineering of Wingham was carried out this week, Indications are the final report will not be one that will please the people of the Blyth Conunurrit�:� . A visual inspection of the arena was :carried out on Tuesday. Still to come at stress tests and other engineering tests before a final written report can be issued. Clerk -treasurer Larry Walsh said the initial reaction of the engineer to the visual inspection did not seem very positive. The report from the engineering firm was ordered by Blyth council after requests were sent out to all municipalities in Ontario to have inspections done on the safety of their arenas. The major problem is that standards have been greatly changed following the tragic collapse of an arena in Listowel several years ago and other close calls elsewhere. Even an arena in as good condition a'.s when it was built 25 years ago cannot meet the tougher standards of today. The result of the provincial order has seen dozens of arenas across the province closed in the last few months, In this arca, Lucan, St. Marys, Exeter, Harriston and Tecswatcr have all been ordered closed. Wingham arena' must either be repaired or replaced. Major repairs have taken place in Hensall and Seaforth recently. Centennial Committee plans events AMMO The monthly meeting of the Centennial Committee and interested villagers met in the town hall Tuesday evening, May 11. Reporting the most progress so far were the souvenir, dance and invitation committees. Gayle King was appointed chairman of the programme committee with Bev Elliott to assist her. In order to familiarize Mrs. King with progress of each committee thus far there will be an Executive meeting on May 18 at 8 p.m, in the town hall hoping to prepare a calendar of centennial events throughout all of 1977. Mention was made of the 100th birthday of the Incorporation of Blyth, June 9, 1976 but nothing definite planned. The next regular Centennial meeting will be Tuesday, June 8, at 8 p.m. in the Memorial Hall. Mark your calendars nowl Everyone welcome. Gus and Hanna Kurnoth who have run Blyth Dairy for the last 16 years were honoured recently by residents of Belgrave for their long service to people In that community. The couple retired recently from the strenuous job of processing, bottling and deliverying milk td residents in the Blyth area. Little Theatre presents Barefoot in the Park Tuesday and Thursday Blyth !Attie Theatre will present it's 1976 production a comedy by Neil Simon called Barefoot in the Park next week at Memorial Hall, The play tells the story of the problems a young married couple have in adjusting to living with each other and their different ideas of how life should be lived. Starring in the play are several veterans of the local stage. Rick Snell of Londesboro experienced in both Blyth Little Theatre and Central Huron Secondary School productions plays the part of the young husband. His free -spirited wife is played a newcomer Mary Ellen Walsh, from Wingham, a teacher at Hullett Central School in Londesboro. The part of the wife's mother is played by Pat Hulley who was involved in last year's summer production of The Mousetrap. And the eccentric next-door neighbour is played by Don Nicholson who has had experience in The Mousetrap and other productions with Blyth Little Theatre and Goderich Little Theatre. Mrs. Elizabeth Battye is directing the play. The play will be performed Tuesday night, May 25 at 8:30 p.m. and Friday night, May 28. Tickets at $2 for adults and $1.00 for children can be purchased at The Blyth Standard and will be available at the door on the night of the performance. Inside Special Bridal Section Page 11 Drain loans cut off in Wawanosh Tile drain loans for farmers in East Wawanosh township have been cut off for the next year unless the provincial government comes up with some more money in the meantime. The township council decided at its May meeting, May 4 that due to the cut backs in funding for the loan program, no further loans could be issued. The $10,000 allotment for the 1976-77 period has already been allotted. The problem is a common one across the province with many municipalities going on the assumption of continued loan funding and approving loans. Some townships are • in the entharassing position of having promised money to farmers but now not having the money to give. In other business, council moved to contact the Ministry of Labour for an extension to June 30 on the request for an inspection of the Belgrave arena. Ken Dunn of the engineering firm of B. M. Rohs and Associates Ltd. has been hired to conduct an inspection of the arena. Council replied to the "Report of the Local Government Study Committee" of county council that it was quite happy with the present structure of the county system and did not think it necessary to reduce the number of councillors on the county council. Building permits were approved to Jasper Snell, pole barn: Grange Properties Ltd., extension to office building; and four bay garage; Jeffrey Hurst, dwelling; Leonard Bailey, family room addition and Gordon Hughes, garage. On severence to Evelyn Daer was also approved. The council moved to discontinue the Nursery Day Care facility at East Wawanosh school, effective April 29. Membership fee of 510 was approved to the Huron County Municipal Officers Association. Six delegates are to attend the meeting on May 12 at 55 each. A grant of 515 was also given to the Huron County Road superintendents Association. The township will continue to pay its countylevyin December and will Pay additional interest charges on the once -yearly payment. The tender of Pollard Bros. for 582.50 per flake ton for a ,supplying deliverying and applying liquid calcium chloride was accepted. Road accounts of 535,658.21 and general accounts of 54,703.99 were approved for payment. Easter seal campaign huge success The 1976 Easter Seals campaign in the Blyth arca was a huge success. Campaign chairman Ray Madill reported that the campaign this year raised $2,050. This is up a remarkable 52 per cent over last year's campaign. The campaign is conducted annually be the Blyth Lions Club with the proceeds to go toward helping crippled children. Donations are still being accepted and can be given to Mr. Madill or to Bill Howson, treasurer of the campaign. PG. 2.

' 56-7794. 4 BY BILL SMILEY In a recent issue of Canada's so-called national magazine, Maclean's writer Walter Stewart has an article trying to show that ('anadians are not the quiet, sober, gray, decent people they think they are. I could have told him that years ago, and have used it as a theme in this column on some occasions. Perhaps the self-perpetuating myth, at home and abroad, that we are sensible, tolerant, respec- table, and rather dull, has been fostered by our generally color- Iess press and equally colorless politicians. The facts, as Stewart pointed out, in describing several brutal and violent strikes, arc otherwise. Canadians, on the whole, arc not tolerant, I am young enough to remember when such expres- sions as "Jew him down" "nigger in the woodpile" "dumb Hunkie" and "greasy wop" were current in the home and on the OUR MISTAKE A story on the death of Ronald J. Reid in last week's issue of The Standard bore a headline which gave the impression that Mr, Reid had been killed in an accident although he died from'an illness. We apologize to the Reid family for any discomfort this error may have caused them in their time of bereavement. Pro -Life annual meeting held The second annual dinner meeting of the Wingham Pro -Life Group was held at the St. Paul's Anglican Church on Wednesday, May 5, 1976. Rev. Kenneth Hawthorne chaired the meeting. Mr. Ben Malda thanked the ladies for preparing the meal. The business portion of the meeting included the minutes of the first annual meeting and a financial report of the past fiscal year. The following were elected to the Board of Directors from the coming year: Mr. Adrian Keet, Mrs, Sally Campeau, Rev. T. K. Hawthorne, Mrs. Susan Wright, Mrs. Geo. Brophy, Mrs. Ivy Smith, Mr. Bob Damsma, Mrs. Hinka Bakclaar, Mrs. Mary Anne Ryan, Mrs. Ann Marie Kieffer, Mrs. Isobel Thompson, Miss Flora Nabrotzky, Mrs. Cory dcBruyn, Mrs. Linda Snow, Mrs. Anita Make, and Mrs. Geo. Proctor. In her address to the gathering, Mrs. Diane Buchanan of Goderich and a worker with Birthright stated that a pregnant woman has every right to any help she may need to see her through her pregnancy. A woman who comes ,to Birthright is given free, confidential counselling and through Birthright she can make contact with other specialized services. Abortion need not be the way in the future. It is up to each one of us as individuals to do our part to stop the deterioration of our human society. Mr. Adrian Keet, president, expressed his thanks to everyone who has contributed in any way toward making our organization what it is today. • THE BLYTH STANDARD, MAY 19, 1976. PG. 3. Canadians aren't the quiet bunch they're supposed to be street. century gin places in London, If you came out with one of quail in his cravat, those today, you might just be I once sat in a beer parlor and looking for a purple eye or a fat lip watched this scene, Four from a militant Jew, black, Ukrainian or Italian, As a result, Canadians Nye switched their intolerance a bit. We can tell Newfle jokes, because the victims are a long way off. We can tell Paki jokes, because the victims are pretty helpless. And if you arc too "tolerant" to indulge in either of these, you can always run down the Yanks, and feel like a virtuous nationalist. Sober? Canadians arc about the worst drink* in the world, with the possible exception of Scots, who get ugly, Irishmen, who get belligerent, and Poles, who get gloomy. Maybe we are the worst. We get all three. If you do happen to be a decent, sensible, middleaged person, and you don't believe a word of this slander, drop in to your local bar or beer parlor on a Friday night. There are scenes that would make Hogarth, chronicler of the 17th • commercial fishermen came in, Tough, violent men. They sailed into the beer as though there were going to be a brewery strike within the hour. And within the hour they were drunk and ugly and vicious, One called another a"sonuvabitch," an old Canadian expletive often used as a terns of affection. The other, in maudlin mood, retorted "Don't you talk about my mother like that," cracked his glass in two on the edge of the table, and jammed the ragged edge in the first speaker's face, Blood and language flowed freely, but there wasn't even a fight, It was just another Saturday night in Cana- da, and not untypical of an evening in that beer parlor, "Putting the boots" to some- one who is down is something you might associate with the slums of Glasgow or Paris or Hamburg. It is not all that unusual on a Canadian Saturday night, Reasonable? Courteous? Cana- dians? Don't make me laugh. Just take a drive on a four or six -lane highway. Admittedly, most people fit those two adjective, but there is a large minority who make Canada one of the worst places in the world to drive, as any American will tell you. Just the other day I was driving on a three -lane, one-way high- way. Solid old Bill was in the middle lane, gauge right on the 60 -mile per hour limit. Suddenly, a car cut in front of me from the left lane, and, simultaneously, one from the right lane. Both were trying to get into my lane, about 50 feet ahead of me. They almost collided, before veering off like a couple of startled trout. Neither had any reason for passing me, I found myself almost wishing they had crashed, if it weren't for me being the filling in the sandwich. Ask the people of southern England about the First Brigade of Canadians in World War II Find out something about the Halifax riots at the end of that war. Ask your Dada if he was among the Canadian troops who booed their own prime minister at Aldershot, in the same struggle. If I were in a tight spot, I'd just as soon have a Canadian back to back with pie as anybody else, We are tough and brave and resourceful, We have a wry gift for not swallowing BS, no matter who is dishing it out. But let's be honest, We are not a nation of gentle, reasonable, tolerant, dull, sober, clear -think- ing nambie pambics, as so many nations, and so many of our own politicians, think us. We have too much wild blood in us, from all those immigrants who have been pouring into this paradise for 200 years. We are intolerant. We are bad drinkers and drivers. We have a propensity for violence that may explain our great reputation in a couple of wars. You can watch it all in the hockey playoffs. lisCensusDay. Day everyone counts.

A victory for all citizen While the people in Clinton; Chesley Durham arc celebrating the recent court decision that allowed them to keep their hospitals open for at least another six months, the people of the rest of the province should be celebrating an even wider victory. No doubt the immediate effect of the court's order that the cabinet closure order for hospitals is most felt in these communities but if the higher courts uphold the decision against appeal, it could be the start of a new openness in government. The strange thing about the whole closure business is that no one but the lawyers for the hospitals questioned the legality of the government dictating which hospitals could be open and which could be closed. We've grown accustomed to cabinets making decisions without ever having to justify the decision to the people involved or even to the other members of parliament. It isn't just the provincial government that has been guilty of such t tactics, but the federal government as well. Opposition parties arc constantly frustrated at the way governments simply announce a new program or policy as if it was an accomplished fact when nothing has gone through parliament at all. Such was the case in the hospitals closures and the government got tripped up for a change. Not only was their action challenged but they were caught trying to stretch the law by making one provision cover another aspect of hospitals altogether even though it was never meant to. The Public Hospitals Act, the court ruled, allowed the government to revoke permission for a public hospital if the standards of the hospital fell but did not allow it go simply close a hospital for economic reasons. Hopefully, the upper court will upnold the tower court Decision. Hopefully we'll be given the confidence by this decision to challenge other government moves. if the government wants to take an action let them go through regular chanells, through parliament, not go through the back door and twist the law to make it do what they want. It would be a great day for the country if that happened. Evidence on A.I.B. side Opposition to the Anti -Inflation Board continues to mount daily. Recent surveys show that a majority of Canadians don't think the Board will be successful in curbing inflation. Now the Canadian Labour Congress convention has given its leaders the right to call whatever strikes they think necessary to defeat the program. All this would make one think that the controls program is the worst thing to happen to Canada since the Second World War. But a simple objective look makes one wonder what all the fuss is about. All bitching aside, the progrm so far has been working. Whether the controls can' be given credit or not may be questioned, but in the past few months the cost of living index has been rising at a rate that extended for a year would mean less than five per .cent inflation, far less than the government gave as a target for the year. This slow rise directly refutes the union claims that the program goes harder on labour than on prices. The AiB has been allowing wage increases of sometimes as high as 15 and 20 per cent while prices have almost stabilized. The Unions complain because food prices aren't under the control of the Board but food prices have actually gone down in recent months, more than can be said for salaries and wages, Despite the cries of hard times by the unions, figures published recently in Canadian Forum magazine (a magazine with generally left-wing, pro -labour leanings) showed that from 1967 to 1974 wage increases outstripped the cost of living by at least two per cent per year and usually four to five per cent. Unfortunately union leaders of today still see themselves in the martyr -like fashion of the early union leaders. They feel they are persecuted by big business and government. Until they grow up and realize this isn't the turn of the centry when unions were having tough times getting organized, the country is going to be in a mess, and that won't help anybody, including the unions. Time decision proven right : "It • 4 f. itak Can't a guy get any privacy these days? • Letter to the editor Upset because items LETTER TO THE EDITOR: As you know for about a year now each Monday morning I have had delivered to your office, a report about the Blyth United Church service, which is held every Sunday morning. I was .asked to do this by one minister Rev. Cecil Wittich, as a service to our people of the church and others who might be interested in our worship service. There are many who take the Blyth Standard and enjoy reading about their church but arc not able to attend the service especially those in Huronview. We have had many favorable comments about seeing the Blyth United Church news in the paper, Now the point I %vast to make is this. I do -many things without My aren't they having fun up in Ottawa these days in the giant House of Commons mud -throw- ing competition. Captains of the two major league mud -throwing teams are Picrrc Trudeau and Joe Clark. Mr. Trudeau's team is bigger, but Mr. Clark's has better shots. Politicians arc always wonder- ing why people have so little respect for them as a whole. One look at the recent goings-on in Ottawa should give anyone the answer. First there were allegations Remember the hue and cry that went up over the past decade that after allegations about the moral - special privilgcs should be taken away from Time magazine? Like many things, once the government moved to take the action people demanded, the tune changed. We've heard a lot recently lamenting the change in Time magazine, It's a lot of bunk, pure and simple. Those who read Time will really notice little difference. The few pages given over to Canadian news before were mere tokenism. Time gyped Canadian readers by not giving us all the American content. Anyone who surveys issues of Newsweek magazine and Time for the same week, will find far more reading in, Newsweek and at a cheaper cost. So what have we lost? But what have we gained? We've gained a new Maclean's magazine that, rather than the six token pages in Time, gives us a real study of Canada. It gives us less information on the U.S. than Time, but we're already glutted with information on Reagan and Ford in all our other media. It is not as strong in international news as Time, but what there is is written to show how the news will effect Canadians, not Americans. Put simply, we can still buy Time and get as much as it ever offered in the past. We can not get a Canadian magazine that gives us what we need to know about Canada. Anyone who cries for Time is missing the real facts. ity of some members of the Liberal party in the granting of various contracts. Then there were denials and more denials. Then there were accusations ovr interference with judges b3 cabinet ministers. There were, of course, denials and denials. All this made the Liber-•ts loop very bad and the Conservatives look very good...or at least as good as anyone can when they're up to their elbows in a mudhole throwing mud balls. But then came the revelation that the Conservatives had hired a firm of private detectives to try to dig up scandals to use against the government. It wasn't that so much as the fact that they'd tried to hide the fact through several getting or expecting any pay. because 1 enjoy doing- little things, especially for the older people that have done so much for ' us. But the thing that bothers me is I take the time to write out the church news and have it delivered to your office. Then when the paper is published we find that you just didn't bother to publish it or think it worthwhile. So from now on if you wish any report from the Blyth United Church as far as 1 am concerned you can get it yourself. Thank you, Yours truly, Effie McCall. ED.NOTE: Though many people think putting together a news- paper is a simple task, it is • actually very complicated and to omitted make it harder, everything is done under the pressure of deadlines. 'frying to fit the news available to the space available is like trying to prepare Sunday dinner when you don't know how many people will be coming. You nearly always end up with either too much or too little news. Unfortunately from time to time it is not possible to fit all news into the paper and smaller news items arc selected as they fit into the space available. It may be rough justice but it's the only way to put a newspaper together, Besides the United Church news there ‘verc several other small articles of news ommitted which we would like to have been able to include. We are sorry, but it's one of the facts of life, in this business. Only the faces change in. Ottawa devious methods that aroused suspision. Mr. Clark tried to play down the fact that the detectives had been hired and said there was nothing sinister to it. We'd like to believe him, but after all he denied not long ago that detectives had been hired at all. Likewise it would be nice to be able to believe Mr. Trudeau that his ministers have been free of guilt in the accusations against them, but when he fights so hard to keep the public from knowing all the facts, then his credibility is lowered. Most Canadians, unless they arc forever tied to one party or the other, see the constant round of accusations now as a case of the pot calling the kettle black. Already, though Mr. Clark has been Tory leader only a couple of months, Ottawa is taking on the sour smell of the old Diefenbaker- Pearson years. Mr, Clark seeing himself ahead in the polls, is going for the Liberal juglar vein every chance he gets. it may be a good tactic or it may not. Pierre Trudeau is certainly not the most popular man in Canada these days, but when the opposition stems totally negative with never something positive to offer, then people can sometimes turn against it, The hope that people had when Picrrc 'Trudeau was elected was that this would be,a leader with a difference, that somehow he would be above politics. His failure is his failure to live up to that promise. People hoped the sante for Joe Clark but with him somehow the honeymoon has been even shorter. Mr. Trudeau learned his political tricks after he came to office. Mr. Clark has been studying them hard ever since he was a teenager. Neither man seems to be what the people of this country want: a man of principal and honour who will do what is right for the country ahead of what is right for himself and his party. It's very sad particularly as far as Mr. Clark is concerned. 1 personally would like to see him succeed because ' we need a change in government frequently to keep the government closer to the people. But we also need a change for the better, and Mr. Clark seems to me to be even more a political animal than Mr. Trudeau. I hope I'm wrong, but unless he shows a litle more moral backbone and a little less' deviousness, a little more positive policy and a little less mudsling- ing I get the impression that he may blow the glorious chance he has of becoming the leader of this country. 18 tables at There were eight tables in play at Monday night's euchre, Winners were: high lady, Shirley Glousher; high man, Mr, Henderson; low lady, Zora Cook; low man, Harold Cook; ladies lone hands, Mrs. Miller; men's euchre lone hands, Joe Haolmcs; speci1 al prize donated by Mrs, Winnie Vincent and won by Mrs, Don Howes, Euchre will be held next Monday night at 8 p.m. Everyone is welcome.

THE BLYTH STANDARD, MAY 19, 1976. DEAR ANN LANDERS: Please tell your women readers that no matter how much they pay for a dress, they have no guarantee that it is the only one in existence, How a woman behaves when she goes to a party and runs into someone who has the identical number reveals a great deal about her character. My husband worked his way up from janitor to president of a bank. I remember my first really good dress. I bought it 15 years ago and it cost $100. I felt like a queen when 1 put it on. Off we went to a banker's dinner and the first woman 1 saw at the reception had on the identical dress. I smiled at her. She looked horror-stricken and avoided me the entire evening as if I had some loathsome disease. I'm sure she had a miserable time. I had a ball. Every woman in the world runs into this awkward situation sooner or later. Please print my letter and tell her how to deal with it. --Double Vision in 0 City DEAR 0: A good measure of a woman is the size of things that bother her. I can't imagine anything of less consequence than going to a party and seeing someone in the same dress. It has happened to me several times and 1 couldn't care less, But then, maybe I've been "conditioned" because my twin and I dressed alike for 21 years. DEAR ANN LANDERS: What goes on in this office is unreal. It's the boss. Instead of coming in from 9 to 5, he drops in two or three times a week, whenever he feels like it. He ignores phone messages, hasn't answered his personal correspondence in weeks (things we can't handle) and fails to show up for luncheon engagements and other meetings. We are expected to protect him with air -tight alibis. This staff is extremely capable and we do an incredible job of keeping things on the track. But we are tired of the duplicity and 1, personally, am offended by being part of a cover-up. The feelings around this office run from apathy to hate. We all Wheeler 'n Dealers club holds last dance Clinton Wheel'n Dealers Square Dance Club held their last regular dance for the season in Clinton Public School on May 5 with eight squares attending.

PG. 7. - From. the Minister's Study No more prisons BY REV CECiL WiTTiCH BLYTH UNITED CHURCH The Apostle Peter was put in prison. He was imprisoned not for breaking the law but because of his witness as a Christian. Herod Agrippa 1 had hint jailed with the apparent intention of putting him to death. The Christians were very much concerned for the life of Peter. They met together and prayed earnestly to God for Peter. God answered their prayer byeending an angel to deliver Peter from prison and probably death, (You can.read the account of this in Acts 12: 1.19). We have our prisons today; not actual jails like the one in which Peter found himself but prisons of a personal nature. These prisons are confining us and preventing us from entering into the freedom and fulness of the Christian life. Our Lord can deliver us as he delivered Peter. There is the prison of pride. Pride is keeping many from acknowledging their sin and humbling themselves before God, The Lord can deliver. We think of Nicodemus. He came to see Jesus after dark because he was too proud to 'have his fellow Pharisees see him going to Jesus, the one despised by the Pharisees. Jesus talked to Nicodemus about being born of the Spirit,'Later, when Jesus was crucified, Nicodemus was there in broad daylight to help with the burial of .Jesus' body. He was no longer too proud to be associated with Jesus. Jesus had rescued him from the prison of pride. There is the prison of fear. Many are kept from doing and saying what the Lord wants then to because of lack of courage. Jesus can deliver from this bondage of the devil. Think of the disciples following the resurrection: meeting together behind closed doors for fear of their enemies. Jesus commands them to go into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature but first, they are to wait until they receive the power of the Holy Spirit. On the Day of Pentecost they are filled with the Holy Spirit. Immediately they begin to preach the Word of God with boldness and to witness forthrightly to their faith. The Lord through the Holy .Spirit freed them from the enslavement of fear. There is the prison of addictive chemicals. Many find themselves addicted to alcohol, tobacco, drugs, and food. People can even be addicted to work, money, sex, stealing and dishonesty. The Lord can deliver, A couple of weeks ago the newspaper carried the account of a, group of young people in St. Catharines who had been alcoholics and drug addicts. They had become converted to Jesus Christ, The account 'that when they were converted their desire for intoxicants disappeared and they didn't even suffer the customary withdrawal pains. The Lord delivered. No matter what your prison may be the Lord will free you if you will ask him and let him. Who wants to be in prison when it's not necessary?, Hallelujah! No more prisons! Blessed be the name of the Lord! • ..,..,..,.._.._•._.._.._.,_..,..,.._.. .. ..•••..•••...••••..••••..•••..,..,...••••..•••••..1 i j • i 1 1 1 • 1 I I urebl)rm CHURCH OF GOD McConnel Street, Blyth j CHURCH SERVICE: 11 a.m. .,_.• i i OF CANADA i ' Rev.

Trustsee questions the worth of Development days in the town, His request for a BY WILMA OKE At a meeting of the Huron - Perth County Roman Catholic Separate School Board in Dublin last week, criticism was levelled by the school principals at one of the board members for his critical remarks at the previous board meeting about professional development days for teachers. Howard Shantz of Stratford read a letter he had received from Leo Turner, principal of Holy Name of Mary School at St. Marys, reporting that the Principal's Association, of which he is corresponding secretary, takes exception to a remark made by him at the last board meeting when he said he docs not find professional activity days for teachers "too worthwhile". Mr. Turner said in his letter, "We feel that professional activity days are a definite asset to our system and the children in our charge." He continued, "Statements such as the one above, when printed in the press (Stratford Beacon Herald, April 28) are counter•producte and cast very poor light upon our system. We request, therefore, that your statement be substan- tiated or formally retracted at the next meeting of the Board," Report from Queen's Park. In a written response to the Board Mr, Shantz repeated his statement, "I will re-emphasize the fact that 1 still do not support P.D. days," He gave as one of the reasons a recent example that he knew of one of'the teachers from Mr, 'Turner's school who had gone to London on the afternoon of the last P.D. day on April 30. Mr, Shantz said he had many similar examples described to him and he had received a great deal of flack from ratepayers about P.D. days, Mr. Shantz said he represented Stratford along with three other trustees and lie did not intend to be dictated to by the principals in the system who he said he thought wanted to be' spokesmen for the board. Mr. Shantz said, "Lord knows they have enough to do if they concentrated on the running of our schools -• we have yet to attain perfection there." The board accepted the resig- nation of Mrs. Amy Duskocy, a teacher at Our Lady of Mount Carmel as of June 30. The sports council of the board made a presentation, outlining the program they arc carrying out this year and what they propose for next year. Making the BY MURRAY GAUNT,M.P.P., HURON•BRUCE It was a good week for opposition. A divisional court ruling said the provincial court did not have the power to authorize shutdowns of hospitals simply through orders -in -council. The court decision affected Chesley, Clinton, Durham and Doctors' Hospital in Toronto and in the light of this decision opposition parties, which have vigorously opposed the closures of the hospitals, called on the government to abandon the shut down program which has caused serious disruption in small rural communities, not only from a heath -care standpoint but also from an employment standpoint. The Ontario Government intends to appeal the decision according to Acting Health Minister, Bette Stephenson. In the meantime, the four hospitals will receive provincial financing for up to six months during the appeal process. If the appeal takes longer than expected. the hospitals will receive an addition- al six months' financing. The government decided on the appeal route after considering several other alternatives, includ- ing introducing legislation to give the government power to close hospitals. Both the Liberal and N.D.P. parties indicated they would not support such legislation which would means that the government would be defeated, hence an election would be inevitable on the issue. Faced with this opposition, the government opted for the court appeal. Funds for tile drainage loans have been cut back this year by the Province as part of its restraint program. Last year 516 million was available for the program but that was dropped back to $10 milliop. On review it was raised to S13 million. Since many municipalities had already approved more than their allocations for the current year before word of the cut back was. received, there has been con- siderable pressure to increase the total amount available for this program. I learned this week that this matter is being reviewed again by cabinet to see if additional funds can't be found to increase the amount of money available to the program for the current year. presentation were; Terry Craig, The board approved a request Seaforth; Jim Sterner, Wingham; I of Rev.

THE BLYTH STANDARD, MAY 19, 1976. Ring retains traditional The exchange of tokens of devotion, usually in the form of finger rings, is a part of almost every religious marriage ceremony. In an age of so-called "honesty," young couples are seeking very personal means of expressing their devotion through wedding rings. Some couples achieve this by designing their own rings. Many even fashion and make them themselves, but most young couples are not gifted in the arts , of making jewelry and so leave the task to master jewelers. ****** Symbolic Wedding rings have recently increased in popularity Orange Blossoms The orange blossom has been a bridal flower since ancient times. Some careful forethought and a little last minute work with some hair The goddess Juno gave Jupiter a spray can help the mother of the bride get through her hectic time "golden apple" on their wedding without panic for her own looks. day some say the golden apple was an orange; thus its blossom became associated with happi- ness in marriage, Quick, easy coiffure helps mother through wedding On the wedding day •• and for months before -- it's usually the Mother of the Bride who does the thousands of tasks to make it all happen. And the momentum increases until on the last day or two she has few minutes to think about herself and her looks. But with a little planning ahead and a few strategic curlers, she can look well throughout the festivities without losing hours those last days in a salon. The secret of success is to take care of basic hair needs two weeks before the wedding. Have your hair cut •• but don't go in for any drastic changes in your favourite style. Your hair should look like you. Bridegroom's attire determined by bride Until a few years ago, the bridegroom's attire was certainly seldom mentioned in the press. The bride's gown and veil, her attendants' dresses, even the flowers they all carried would be described in great detail. There was no need to write about what the groom wore, Everyone knew. Then came the "peacock revolution". The groom in his ruffled shirt, trousers and sometimes, bare feet, or, in direct counterpoint • Edwardian splend- or •- became newsworthy too. That period of individuality was short lived. Today's bridegroom takes his place at the altar once again in traditional garb,. The lapels may be wider, the waist suppressed, the dinner jacket in a subdued colour and the dress shirt somewhat ruffled, but wild flights of fancy are over. The old rules of formality never really changed. The formality of the bride's wedding gown still determines what the bridegroom and all the men in the wedding party will wear. If the bride's gown is semi- formal, the men will also be less formal in single-breasted Oxford stroller coats and striped trousers before 6 p.m. After this hour, dinner jackets, perhaps coloured and black Middle East custom Why do we throw shoes after the bride? Probably it dates fromthe ancient Middle East, where men would exchange their sandals to symbolize the exchange of prop- erty. So shoes signify transfer of authority from the bride's father to her husband. formal trousers and the correct attire. For an informal summer wedding before 6 p.m., the men wear either white jackets with Oxford grey trousers, dark blue jackets with white flannel trousers or white suits. After- wards, white dinner jackets with formal black trousers are worn. Since the majority of men rent their wedding attire, they do not have to be concerned about the correct accessories. The formal rental wear shops they patronize will supply these • along with the proper clothing. If you dye or streak your hair, have a touch up if ncessary. If you're wearing a hat or veil, you might take it along to the hairdresser so that he or she can make suggestions for the total look. Then, the day before the wedding, if a trip to the hairdresser has to be eliminated, you can shampoo and set your hair yourself. Choose a shampoo to suit your hair dry, normal or oily •• and follow it with a creme rinse or a conditioner. Set hair on rollers and let dry while you're helping your daughter with her gifts, answer- ing phones, taking care of all those last minute emergencies that crop up no matter how carefully you've planned ahead. Comb hair out in time for the evening pre wedding festivities and spraying with an effective hair spray will keep hair in place through the evening and you can even sleep on your set without destroying the line. Before making up and dressing on the day of the wedding, do a quick dry set by rolling ends or whole head on curlers, spray. Then, after you've dressed, brush hair out spraying again to hold any stray hair in place. PLANNING Wi DDING?

Some of the unusual one which local jewelers have executed for up -coming weddings have been an intertwined tree branch with two branches extending from it to symbolize the joining of two people into one and rings of gold in the traditional love knot pattern. In most instances bridegrooms over the past two decades have chosen to wear wedding bands which match their bride's wedd- ing ring. Lately however, it seems that bridegrooms are having more to say about their own weddings than many earlier ones. Therefore in many cases bridegrooms are choosing wedd- ing rings which are not necessar- role ily anything like those which they give to their brides. ****** We thought it would be dumb to have matching bands, just for the sake of saying we were wearing matching bands," said one recently married man. Also, mee's hands arc usually larger than women's hands, and so a design which looks lovely on a woman's finger may look too del,icate on her mate's third finger left hand. It is traditional and has been followed by most soon-to-be married couples, -local jewelers say, that the initials of the couple are engraved with the date of their wedding on the inside of their rings.

In fact, they'll probably be filling in with pieces borrowed from parents and Choose your You may not want 76 trombones played at your wedding and 110 cornets may overfill your hall. But why not consider three trombones and perhaps one cornet? If you like the sound of brass, go ahead and include it in your wedding plans. Young couples today have a much greater latitude in planning not only where they'll have the wedding but all the elements which help make it "the perfect day," And, if you have friends who play musical instruments, include them. The American Music Confer- ence says that many about -to -be - marrieds are making their wedd- ings much more reflective of their own personalities than was true even five years ago. While you'll still find Mendel- ssohn's "Wedding March" among the ceremonial selec- tions, a great many brides and grooms are more likely to say their vows to the theme from "Elvira Madigan" or even a jazz relatives. If this situation applies to you, here are some handy do-it-yourself decorating hints. With time and imagination, decorating with such "conversa- tion pieces" can be fun and own music version of "Yellow Submarine." If you have a friend or relative who plays guitar, think about having him (or her) play at the wedding as a solo or with piano or organ. Another good combination is violin and flute or piano and electric bass. If you prefer classical music Mozart on trumpet and cornet would add a distinctive, lyrical note to the festivities. Perhaps you want to ' involve your attendants more fully in the proceedings. Why not ask each of them to choose a musical selection, The result will be , a surprising blend -- from Chopin to country. iazz to Jonlin. By involving your friends and family more fully in the cere- mony, you'll be following an age-old tradition of amateur music -making. Whether it's baroque, brass or bells, let the music set the tone and reflect your individuality. It's your day -- make it even more rewarding. To begin, use common sense and tips from experts and be sure to take advantage of the excellent products currently on the market to help save time and work. Large bureaus or dressers can take on new life by simply refinishing or repainting them, First, sand down and clean the surface, Then apply paint, antiqu- ing base or stain, followed by appropriate sealer. Using a kit makes the job a cinch, and the results will amaze you, Often, decorators will blend such a piece with the walls so it seems to disappear. This can be accomplished by painting walls with geometric lines or patterns, extending this pattern onto the dresser. Or paper the dresser with the same wallpaper you are using on the walls, then cover with varnish or a plastic sealer, That rug you borrowed for your livingroom can be easily spruced up by using a convenient rug -cleaning product like Spray 'n Vac that lets you shampoo your carpet wnile you vacuum. .lust spray the foam on the rug, wait until it dries and then vacuum away the dried foam and dirt. Slipcovering can be accomp- lished by the home sewer without much difficulty, There are a number of excellent publications on the market that give step-by- step instructions. However, if you are not that handy, colourful pillows strewn on old furniture can do wonders. Borrowed mirrors can be modernized by refinishing or by covering borders with fabric glued over a bit of padding and stretched over to the back. And dinette sets can either be repainted or, if you prefer, covered by a pretty linen cloth that reaches the floor. (Then cover your chair cushions to match!) Decorating with hand-me- downs is a challenge and really a convenience, too.

The ethnic look in brides has brought about a resurgence of the use of more common flowers in wedding bouquets. While once lowly, the tiger lily has now become an integral part of some ethnic wedding flower scenes. Likewise the various field flowers -- which, while very delicate and romantic, du not last as well as heartier flowers like carnations or chrysanthcmcros • are popular. Single flowers, held by each attendant and the bride, provide a simple way out to the complicated selection of wedding bouquets. In several local bridal shows, bouquets were as oldfashioned as possible and matched co-ordin• ated outfits beautifully. Nostalgia and a yearning for romantic elegance have made the old-fashioned bouquet increas• ingly popular. Among the most beautiful are those arranged to be held in antique silver and gold bouquet holders. Even flower arrange- ments on fans have realized an amount of importance in spring and summer wedding plans. Garden weddings, part of the season's loveliest efforts toward a "natural" wedding, have spawned interest in the use of garden flowers. Some of the most popular.are cornflowers and even zinnh s in bright hues. Gardenias. long a traditional bride's flower, are also being chosen by area brides for their wedding flowers. With lavender being a very popuular colour for spring and sumnicr weddings, heather and violets will also be used by many brides. They will be either alone or mixed with other flowers in wedding bouquets. Another repeat performance on the wedding scene is the Delman rose. It is a large (sometimes 10 inches across), single, rose - shaped flower made from petals of roses into the huge bloom.

Because of the first home's transitory nature, it usually is wise to budget more heavily on things which may be moved easily and fit well in any decor. For the rest, do it as inexpensively as you See a professional for best in pictures Some . are grand and extra- ordinarily expensive. Others are simple and modestly priced. Whatever type of wedding you are planning, it deserves to be preserved in professional photo- graphs. A bride must decide to economize on some things, b t tinot .on photographic coverage of this all-important occasion. For it is tyre photographs that will keep the day's events alive in years to come.., Kodak experts advise prospect- ive brides to book a professional photographer as soon as the date is set, especially if she is getting married on a weekend during one of the more popular bridal months • June, August, or December. Several weeks\.before the occasion the bride and groom - to -be should sit down with the photographer and plan the type of photos they'll want. Most ask for a formal bridal couple portrait, one of the bride alone, one of the bridal party and immediate families, and several informal photographs of the wedding ceremony and reception. Look at your photographer's portfolio of other wedding photos he's made and consider different styles you'd like. Wedding portraits can be formal, dramatic and romantic with special photo- graphic effects and props; or they can be informal, casual, even can and make it as gay and as much fun as possible. Mistakes will be made, but remember it is a try -out period for a more thought-out home of the future. In most cases the budget of newlyweds is limited, hence splurge on colour. Paints and wood stains can cover a multitude To remember your wedding In the years to come, you're best to get a professional photographer to record It. He'll also help you select an album and collection. candid, if you prefer. If you arc planning a budget wedding, cheek the photogra- pher's .p'tickage prices. It is always best to have him photo- graph from start to finish for you'll never be able to recreate the event at a later date. For a more complete set of wedding photographs, perhaps your relatives may wish to give 'you additonal prints as wedding gifts. Your photographer has gift certificates for this purpose. And, you might wish to order additonal prints later for your six -month's anniversary. Wedding photographs make ideal gifts from the newlcywed couple to their close friends and relatives. You may wish to have the photographer frame large colour prints of the bridal party for holiday gifting. Tips on toasting procedures For some reason, one of the most neglected procedures of a wedd- ing reception concerns the toasts. All too often, the correct order of toasts and responses are left to the last minute—then there'sa desperate search for someone to explain how it should go. One sound item of advice: Unless the men of the wedding party are professional speakers they will find that the most effective toa:;ts are the most simply worded. To start with, a clergyman or an old family friend should propose the toast to the bride. Tradition- ally, he will recount an amusing incident or two from the bride's childhood, comment on her beauty as a bride and after conveying the good wishes of all the guests he will congratulate the groom on securing such a prize as his wife. The groom should sincerely thank the toastmaster for his kind words and assure him and the other guests that in the years to come he will do everything possible to deserve the bride and make her happy. He will also thank the guests for coming and for their generos- ity in helping the couple set up their new home. He should then include a few words of thanks to both sets of parents, with particular mention of the bride's mother and part she has played in raising h r ,daughter and in the wedng Michael'sX7ard Queen&West ' oreland • opposite B • moo's Old Potterydesign n Blyth Studio M'' ' y For that unique an' treasured gift, visit our stud and choose . m a wide selection of fine hand, afted ston are pottery.

He asks the guests to rise and drink a toast to the bridesmaids.

They can go with you to your next abode, Paint your walls colour you like and use wallpaper borders to achieve architectural detail and dimension, To get a texture effect, which is always good, use burlap, ticking or wallpaper on your walls or vinyl if the walls arc in poor condition; it holds them together. Remember the scenic wallpapers in dining areas and foyers give depth and perspective. Buy basic pieces of furniture first and keep them simple. A convertible sleeping piece in the livingroom can later be used in a guest room or den. A drop-leaf dining table can be placed against a wall when not in use. Small scaled contemporary chairs can be an asset to any room. They are both comfortable and adaptable. Don't overcrowd a room, Buy your major pieces and do the rest with hand-me-downs or inexpens- ive garden furniture or director's chairs in attractive colours. Use plants to fill in empty spaces if you have a green thumb. You don't really need one these days with vinyl foliage indiscernible from the real thing.

THE BLYTH STANDARD, MAY 19, 1976. Plan furniture needs with sharp eye on quality When a young couple is married, they often rcccive enough silver, china, cryst:tl, linens, bowls and the like to open a gift shop. Some of these gifts are treasured -• the couple seldom is able to afford such luxuries otherwise, But some only clutter Cabinets and collect dust. What the couple usually isn't Toasting procedures Continued from Page 15. harrowing experiences he and the other members of the wedding party have had in getting the bride ready for the wedding. The final speech of the day is made by the bride's father introduced by the best man. This speech may be omitted if the father wishes. He will say how happy he ancf the bride's mother are to leave the bride's future in such capable hands, He will then thank the guests for their kindness in coming and invite them to come to the family's home during certain hours of the next few days so that they may view the gifts. Family meetings The first contact between the bride's and groom's families should be initiated by the groom's parents. This can be done by a simple telephone call or letter extending an invitation to dinner at home or in a restaurant. The bride and groom may wish to attend, if only to perform the necessary introductions. Should the groom's family not make the intial overture, it is perfectly proper for the bride's parents to do so. In those cases where the parents live at too great a distance from each other for a convenient get-together, a con- genial letter from the mother of the groom is acceptable, lucky enough to rcccive is furniture and furniture must be bought, Now all the soul-search- ing begins. The wife begins to make a list. The husband starts to add and subtract figures. They have a living room, dining room, kitchen, bath and two small bedrooms. What will they need? For most average couples starting out in their first home, here is a standard furniture list: Fut• the living room: Sola Arne chair or wing chair. End table %kith lamp (two it' possible) Accessories such as coffee table. wall hangings, draperies. For the dining area: Dining table with extension leaves if possible and at least four chairs. Host and hostess chairs might he added later. Rug. Optional are side serving table and hutch •or breakfront for storing and displaying dislcek. Accessories such as draperies, tablecloth or place mats,. wall hangings, For the kitchen: For couples starting out and for couples who plan on acquiring a dining set, a small table and two chairs are the only requirements. Accessories include curtains. only small appliances that are absolutely necessary, For the main bedroom: Bed of high quality if at all possible. Chest of drawers. Accessories such as curtains, throw pillows, scatter rugs. Optional items might include woman's vanity, side table for lamp. For the second bedroom which can be used primarily as a den: 'i'V set, chair, hideaway or studio bed for use by overnight guests. Accessories such as rug, wall hangings, lamps. Optional items • chest of drawers, wardrobe closet, desk. Since the majority of newly- weds move into apartments with available appliances, they need not spend large sums for stoves or refrigerators, Some furniture dealers advise young couples to buy good quality furniture in an open stock group that can be augmented as finances permit, A high quality living room set can be used for years, then moved to the den or fancily room, Also recommended is purchase of high quality bedding which Will last many years, Arranging credit to ncakc a substantial furniture purchase may be necessary. Credit organ- izations today offer few obstacles to young marrieds who buy furniture items that are deemed necessary. 'Arranging credit for non-essential luxury items might be more difficult, however. Careful study of advertise- ments can point a_couple at the right stores. Occasional bargains might be found in used furniture shops, but cautious shopping is advised. Second hand items can sometimes cost as much as new ones. With used furniture, the couple could put their creative energies to good use. An old kitchen table and chairs could be spruced up in the colour of their choice. The project can be clone With a simple antiquing kit available at home decorating shops. Other nconey•saving tips: It' the apartment is not carpeted, use scatter rugs. If floors are attractive, area rugs are most ef'f'ective. The Tush walt•to- Wali carpeting can come later %when you establish a permanent home. Some stores sell rug samples and others may sell bits and pieces that can serve as area or scatter rugs. often at half the cost. One trick is to collect a number of sample squares. and connect them into a patchwork rug for an Early American den, for example. Trunks are always useful and decorative. They serve for storage and make functional coffee tables. Check used furniture shops and antique stores for a trunk you can refinish, A good trunk with a pillow on top may even serve as a scat for two.

The program is designed to provide a practical learning ekperience for young people from non-farm homes who have a serious . interest in agriculture, and who have had no experience working on a farm. As a Junior Agriculturalist, a person will be placed on a selected commercial farm, where he/she will perform regular activities relativeto that farm operation. In addition, a Junior Agriculturalist, will have an opportunity to develop an apprec- iation of rural life through living with a farm `family, and through participating in the local 4-H and Junior Farmer programs and in other rural activities. The prospective Junior Agricul- turalist will be either boys or girls 16 to 17 years of age and must be in good physical and mental condition in order to withstand the vigorous physical effort. Selection will be based in part on their reasons for being interested in agriculture, and their plans for further education and a career. All Junior Agriculturalists will be required to participate in an orientation program to help prepare them for their farm stay. This program will be held about mid June and on-farm assign- ment will be for a nine week period, commencing on June 21st and terminating on August 20, 1976. A Junior Agriculturalist will be assigned, wherever possible, to a farm with the type of enter- prise(s) in which she/he is most interested in. The duties involved will vary considerably depending on the individual farm operation, the demonstrated ability of the Junior Agriculturalist and the kind of enterprises found on the farm. The interested host farmers arc to be commercial farms, with the operator engaged in farming full time. They must be interested in helping inexperienced young people develop the skills required on a farm and are expected to have the ability to work well with and supervise young people. Host farmers must also provide suit- able accommodation for the Junior Agriculturalist during his/her stay on the farm. Each Junior Agriculturalist will receive a training allowance of $16.00 per day, based on a six day week. $6.00 of this will be provided by the Ontario Ministry of Agriclture and Food; the host farmer will provide $5.00 per day in cash, as well as supplying room and board worth $5.00 per day. Persons interested in partici- pating in this program as either a host farmer or Junior Agricultur- alist should contact Len MacGregor at 482-3428 or long distance Zenith 7-2800 or write to the Ontario Ministry of Agricult- ure and Food, Clinton.

DAN MANSELL ONTGARIO MINISTRY OF NATURAL RESOURCES Groundhog hunting can pro- vide many enjoyable hours for the responsible sportsman, and at the same time help the farmer control this undesirable specie which is regarded by most farmers as a pest. An overpopulation of ground- hogs can cause much damage in crop land or pasture fields sometimes causing domestic animals to break their legs when they step unsuspectingly into a hole, or cause damage to wheeled implements and cutting bars. Groundhogs usually have 2-3 litters a year with 1-8 young in a litter. The young chucks usually begin to appear around May 24 and are easy prey for hunters, dogs, coyotes, fox and some raptors, but as the grass grows longer, and the young chucks develop, they become more wary. Yet despite his many enemies the woodchuch has survived and even thrived in agricultural areas where other creatures have failed. Each year the Ministry of Natural Resources receives com- plaints from landowners and other residents who voice their disapproval of persons who hang dead groundhogs on farm fences. Residents disapprove of this practise and why shouldn't they. After all, it is not a pretty sight to drive through the country and look at groundhogs hanging on fences. Not only docs this present a poor image of the sportsman, the carcasses also tend to rust and eat the wire, hereby ruining the fence. Most farmers will welcome you on their farm and thank yo for helping him keep the chucks under control, and all he asks in return is that we use a little common sense. Always drive into the farmer's yard and ask his permission before you start to shoot. ,There Huronia Hockey camp at Ayton this year Huronia Hockey and the Township of Normanby have announced that the - Huronia Hockey Camp will commence operation with the 1976 summer season utilizing the new Normanby Recreation Complex in Ayton, Ontario.

PHIBES RISES AGAIN! Color PC, 24, THE BLYTH STANDARD, MAY 19, 1976. A large audience was in attendance at the Blyth Public School on Monday night to see a demonstration by Gwen of the television show Gardening with Gwen. The program was sponsored by the Blyth Horticultural Society. Blyth U.C.W. meets The second general meeting of the United Church Women was held in the afternoon of May 17 in the church parlour. Quiet piano music by Winona McDougall at the beginning, and a beautiful solo, "In the Upper Room" by Lillian McClinchcy were impressive features. Devotions were in the charge of Rena Watt who read an essay appropriate to the theme of Christian Education, and who led in prayer. Margaret McCullough chose a passage from Proverbs for her scripture reading. The offering was taken up by Isobel Fox. Mary Holland read the scripture for a film which showed Mr. and Mrs. Gordon and their four children coming to apprec- iate, by daily use in varied ways, the Bible in their home. Those present watched them grow strong physically and spiritually and become a real asset to their church and community. The Iovc and harmony that prevailed in the Bible oriented Gordon hone was beautiful to behold. Continuing the theme, Mary Wightman by the use of charts, reviewed the mid -week activities for all age levels in the Blyth church. She pointed out that our Church school program presented by Sharon Wittich is meaningful through her use of films, flannelgraph, puppets, drama, contests and quizes. The average attendance has been 110 to 120. Secretary Esther Johnson's roll call was answered by 20 members. The treasurer's report by Mary Wightman showed a healthy state of finances. Louise Buttel, substituting for corres- ponding secretary, Winnie John- ston, brought members up to date on correspondence received and despatched.
