This 'n' That
It,takes,,,a brave adult to try 25-m4Ie bike -ride' '
Some local people are putting
their muscles where there mouth
is coming up September 18. Some
hardy adults are going to take on
the challenge of a 25 mile
bike-a-thon to help raise money
for the arena.
Now considering that most
adults that haven't been on a
bicycle in many a year, that's
indeed a real effort, On the
surface it would seem like a safe
bet to give a big pledge on the
thought that few of the oldtimers
can make it that far.
This is one old diner who's
thankful his old bike is out of
commission, If he took part it
would be he that was out of
commission.

The younger set will be busy
that day too as young people from
the Blyth Christian Reformed
Church walk for the arena,
They'll be on a 25 mile course too,
though on a different route going
from the farm of Fritz Datema to
Walton along county road 25,
back on the 9th of . Morris to
Blyth's hotel corner then back to
the Datema farm, Nearly 60
persons are expected to take part.

Still on the arena, members of
the committees in charge of
1 rebuilding and fund raising are
reminded of the meeting at the'
I Legion Hall, Monday at 8:30 p.m.

l Mentioning that draw last week
on the new car, we said it was the
Legion that was sponsoring the
draw. It is a combination affair
between the Legion and the
Lions,

While the arena has been
taking most of the headlines
lately, work is still continuing
toward the big Blyth Centennial
next year. Preliminary work is
starting on the publication of the
Blyth history book, Susan Street
and her committee of .young
researchers and writers have
been_ busy putting the work
together. It should be interesting
to finally see a written account of
the history.

This youngster found a steam engine that was a Tittle more his she at the Thresher Reunion
last year. No matter what she you prefer, you're bound to find It at the show Friday,
Saturday and Sunday. Record crowds are expected for the 15th annual show.
Mental Health Centre
began for children, youth
With the election of a board of
directors on September 1 the new Huron
Centre for Children and Youth is off the
ground. Work has been underway by a
steering committee over the past four
months though and persons attending the
public meeting it Clinton September 1
received copies of a paper entitled, "A
Proposal for Mental Health Services for
children and Adolescents in Huron
County".
This paper outlines some of the
problems the new unit will attempt to deal
with and explains the proposed methods of
operation.
The service will provide resources for all
children in the area between the ages of
infancy and 19. At the present time there
are approximately 15,000 children of school
age resident within the county so that the
groups target population would include all
of those plus children- who are ' now
pre-schoolers.
The paper calls for assessment and
resourcing to children and families in the
home and school settings as well as crisis
intervention. This would be accomplished
through the mechanism of a mobile mental
health team composed of representatives
of various disciplines operating out of a
centrally based location within the county.
There are at present, within the county,
a number of people with both the
knowledge of the area and experience and
training in the provision of mental health
services for children. The new group would
like to involve some of these people in the
new service.
The,staffing proposal calls for a director
of an as yet unspecified discipline, -a
consulting psychiatrist for one session per.
week, a full time psychologist, front line
workers (probably from the disciplines of
child care work and public health) and
special education teachers who would
hopefully be funded through the Ministry
of Education.
Initially, the program will require office
space located at various centres within the
county. This question is being examined
with an eye to using already existing space
under the auspices of the Huron County
Health Unit and under the auspices of the
Separate School System which has space
lncted in the former Queen Elizabeth
, School in Goderich. Some of this space
would be used as a central office for the
director and secretarial support services
for the program.
A tentative budget for the service has
been put forward. This suggests $20,000
per annum for the director: $72,000 per
annum for six child care workers: $18,000
per annum for two secretaries: $13,000 per
annum to cover mileage: $8,000 to cover
benefits: $35,000 yearly for psychologial
and diagnostic services: $3,000 yearly for
rent; $6,000 per annum for office expenses
and overhead and $10,000 yearly for a
consulting psychiatrist. This brings the
total of $185,000 the sum earmarked by the
Province for operation of .such a unit in
Huron County.
THE BLYTH STANDARD, SEPTEMBER 8, 1976. PG. 3.
15th annual Thresher
Reunion starts Friday
Believe it or not, it's 15 years since the
first Huron Pioneer Thresher and Hobby
Association Reunion was held in Blyth.
The 15th annual reunion may be the
biggest yet. It begins Friday and will
continue Saturday and Sunday. Crowds
have been building year by year and it is
hoped that this year will see the largest
yet.
Over the 15 years the Reunion has been
blessed with generally good weather and
there will be special hope for good weather
this year. Changes in the usual' plans have
been necessitated by the loss of the Blyth
arena. Usual tenants of the arena have
been forced outside, One of the more
popular portions of the reunion in the past
years has been the beer garden. It will be
held on the arena floor as usual but without
the arena roof.
As usual the big steam engines are the
pride of the show and will draw the most
attention. They will be used to power
threshing machines and the saw mill and
braker fans.
There will also be the little engines,
models of the big steamers. There'll be gas
tractors and antique cars, a hay press, a
team of oxen and other old implements.
There will be many forms of entertain-
ment during the event including an old
tyme Fiddler's contest.
And there'll be a chance to see the
machines in action each day when the
parade takes place at 4 p.m.
20 residents needed quickly
for seniors apartments
If Blyth is to get a senior citizens
apartment project it must have 20 firm
tenants by Friday;
The Ontario Housing Corporation has
given an ultimatum to the village to
produce the tenants or do without. The
situation is that the earlier 12 -unit building
is uneconomical with the expensive site
preparations required. If, however, enough
tenants can be found, a 24 -unit building
would be built.
The Ontario Housing Corporation earlier
conducted a survey and said there weren't
enough people needed the units. Hard
work by local officials and Huron -Bruce
M.P.P. Murray Gaunt, however, won the
concession that if 20 firm commitments
could be found by Friday, the plans would.
go ahead.
Clerk -treasurer Larry Walsh said Tues-
day that there are 12 people now
committed to taking units but others are
urgently needed. Anyone who is willing to
agree to move into the building should get
in touch with the clerk at 523-4545 by
Friday.
School Fair will use Belgrave
arena next week
Definitely "yes" was the answer
president Wm. Coultes when asked by a
director at a recent meeting of the
Belgrave, Blyth, Brussels school fair
board, as to whether this years fair would
be held as usual in the Belgrave arena.
The 56th schoolfair will be held next
Wednesday, September 15, beginning with
a parade of the students of the three
schools at 1 o'clock, followed by the official
opening by guest speaker, Mr. Barry
Wenger of Wingham.
All the exhibits will be on display in the
arena. A sports program and judging of the

Federation to
health council
BY RON SHAW
The Education Committee of the
Huron County Federation of Agriculture
were instructed to prepare a brief outlining
the Federation's stand and suggestions on
the proposed formation of a Huron -Perth
District Health Council after the group
heard an outline of the porposal from guest
speaker Dr. Frank Mills. Dr. Mills spoke to
the monthly membership meeting of the
group on September 2.
Dr. Mills, Medical Officer of Health for
Huron, explained that the proposed council
will be made up of a group of citizens
within the district who will serve as an
advisory body to the Ministry of Health on
planning integrated health services.
In asking that the Federation prepare a
brief he also urged that they propose at
least one person as a nominee to the new
body. He said the existing steering
committee will file a list • of nominations
with the Ministry of Health with their final
report and that the participation of country
groups in suggesting interested persons
was desirable.
Initially the District Health Council will
be appointed by the Minister of Health, he
explained. Once the council is established,
the by-laws will make provisions for future
appointments to the body.
Dr., Mills said the council would
establish priorities and should determine
the health needs of the district and match
those needs to the resources available.
The formation of such a council, he
suggested, could help provide comprehen-
sive planning on an area basis rather than
on facility or individual program basis. The
needs of the Huron -Perth area could be
outlined more effectively to the Ministry of
Health through the council which would
have the support of people in this area. It is
also hoped that it could reduce the
duplication of facilities and services
through more effective planning.
will be sure to make the afternoon very
interesting and enjoyable for both the
young and old.
Two new classes introduced this year
include a poster contest on the topic of
"fire prevention". There is a class for both
junior and senior students. Keil Insurance
Agency, Wingham will judge and provide
the prizes for these classes, Also new this
year is the participation of both girls and
boys in all the baking, sewing and farm
mechanics classes.
Bring your family and friends and enjoy
an afternoon in Belgrave at Ontario's
largest rural school fair.
study
idea
Dr. Mills stressed to the meeting that he
was merely trying to present the idea to the
people of Huron and did not want the
Federation members to feel that he was or
was not trying to sell the idea.
He pointed out that certain problems
could be expected with the new council.
With district planning there could be a
tendency to downplay the identity of the
patient, the professional and the individual
institution.
Inadequate or over zealous planning
could result in a loss of facilities and
professional services for some commun-
ities. Dr. Mills also suggested that if there
is an excess of political manoeuvering, the
District Health Council could be.reduced to
a rubber stamp, administrative process
contributing little to efficiency or effective-
ness, but adding cost.
It was also suggested that the voluntary
co-operation necessary between groups in
health care and Social Services with
different points of view may be difficult to
achieve.
In preparing a brief, Dr. Mills asked that
the Federation consider five basic
questions. '"Do you support the establish-
ment of a District Health Council? What
should the membership be? Suggest a few
names for membership? What do you think
the function of a District Health Council
should be? List any other ideas and views
that you would wish the Steering
Committee to consider."
Some members of the Federation felt
that in the question of establishment of the
council there was really no choice. If Huron
was not agreeable now it would be shoved
on the area in any case sooner or later.
Bearing this in mind the group felt it
would be better to take the opportunity to
become involved in planning now.
Otherwise the council might be run by the
Ministry of Health with little or no local
say.

If labours frustrated
what about us?
Labour Day was another day of rhetoric from the Canadian Labour
movement.
Joe Morris was again telling us how hard used the labour movement
is and how dictatorial the government is in its "all-out" attack on the
labour movement. It's hard to remember, however, a year when Mere
were so few tears shed for labour on Labour Day. Instead th':re was a
steady sfream of condemnation for Mr. Morris and his colleagues,
Writer after commentator (m'ost of whom are themselves union
members) pointed out that it's about time that labour leaders stopped
trying to make the tactics of the 1930's work in the 1970's. In the
Depression, it was pointed out, the cries of hard use were real and
meaningful. It was a time when big business held all the cards and the
worker was merely a tool. Today however, often it is the businessman
who is at the mercy of union members and the "working man", the
plumber, the carpenter, the school teacher, even the garbage man, pull
down salaries most white collar workers and small businessmen would
envy.
Yet the labour leaders continue to play the violins and sing
hardtimes. They make particularly idiotic claims that workers are
controlled in how much they can earn while "at every turn they are
faced with increased living costs." They make it sound like the cost of
living is going up by leaps and bounds while their wages are static. Yet
the figures show that the cost of living, though still climbing too fast, is
slowing while wages and salaries continue to increase at a pace far
faster. How much do our hard used workers want? Just plain more,
that's all, and damn the consequences.
We can't stand
by forever
When does the belief in the inviolability of a nation state become
something that must be set aside in the interests of mankind?
To have a civilized world, we must believe that countries have the
right to solve their own problems, without interference from outside its
boarders. But what happens in cases such as Nazi Germany, where an
immoral government can murder millions on a whim? What happens in
the case of a country like Uganda where a maniacal tyrant keeps his
people in terror, with thousands of people disappearing, never to be
heard of again. And what happens in South Africa where a minority in
strong control of the government imposes uncilvilized laws to keep a
whole race of people in near -slave status?
How long can we, in the western world, sit back and let the atrocities
of Uganda, South Africa and Rhodesia go on? We have never been very
proud of the situation that developed before the Second World War
where the British government, with the blessing of other western
nations, tried to appease Hitler by signing away the nationhood of
millions of people. In doing so, we led indirectly to the deaths of
millions of Jews.
Yet today we sit back and watch what goes on in these African
countries without even a spasm of conscience. We sit back comfortably
in Canada and the U.S. and Britain and watch our situation comedies
and laugh to forget that the rights and the lives of millions are being
trampled on by inhumane governments.
Surely we can't go on with this much longer. Surely we must try to do
something to change the situation by economic sanctions as a minimum
and military force if necessary. If we don't how can we claims to be
civilized?
A food price puzzle
There it was on page 11, a tiny headline at the bottom of the page:
Sugar price drops to '73 level; first surplus in years expected.
The article went on to say that the price of sugar had dropped by as
much as 50 cents for a two kilogram bag since the new year. That was
close to a 50 percent drop in prices. Yet the editors of the daily
newspaper thought it warranted only a small story buried deep in the
newspaper.
But if the price of sugar had gone up by that much.,.well, we all
know it would have been headline news for days and editorial writers
would have sharpened their scapels and called for a Royal Commission
to investigate. There would have been charges of rip-offs and
government not caring about the poor. The Canadian Consumer
Association would have been up in arms and would be quoted liberally
every day in the newspaper saying how evil•thie conspiracy• against the
consumer was.
We've seen the same thing, of course, in beef production. Many
cattlemen have gone out of business in the last three years because of
. low prices yet what do yoti see in,the headlines:, only warnings in huge
type that beef prices are bound to go up soon. While the general trend
in food prices has been upward in the past 20 years, food has been the
only portion of the cost of living that actually corps down now and
•then. Unfortuantely our doom and gloom leaders only tell us when food'
goes up, not'when it comes down, thus Ieavirig many people wtio don't
read page 11, with the idea that food prices only go one way.
Flocks of flox
BY KEITH ROULS'ruN
The death of .10 people in an
aircraft returning from a series of
meetings by the Royal commis-
sion into Ontario Hydro planning
in the north on the weekend
probably brought more attention
to the meetings than would
normally have been given.
Among those, killed was Joe
McCellend, veteran reporter and
columnist with the London Free
Press. He had been asked
specially to take the trip by the
chief of one of the Indian bands in
the north because his earlier work
had convinced the Indians that,
unlike many southern reporters,
he actually understood their
problems and their desires. It
gave a rather poignant touch to
the whole story that his last
column from the north appeared
in the same paper as his obituary.
In it he tells of the frustrations
of the Indians of the north, of
seeing their way of life destroyed
by the decision makers of bodies
like Ontario Hydro a 1000 miles
away in downtown Toronto.
Those of us in little towns, I think,
can empathize with the Indians
more than most. We can
understand how a band of 1200
people feel when the government
virtally says that they haven't a
right to their way of Iife because
"society" has a greater need.
We've been kicked in the head a
few times too.
Still, there's a real moral
conflict here that isn't easily
solved. Much has been made of
Canadians face a moral
dilemma over
northern development
the plight of Indians in northern
areas who are faced with
revolutionary $evelopment that
completely wipes out often not
only their way of life, but the very
land they live on. The James Bay
project, with the flooding of
thousands of square miles of
country destroyed the land that
the Indians had lived on and
hunted and trapped• on for
centuries. Suddenly their old
homes, their centuries-old way of
making a living was taken away,
often with nothing to replace it.
McClelland told in his column of
one northern Ontario tribe of 1200
displaced by a hydro dam that
was uprooted and left with no
livelihood but welfare.
It's a sad story and one that
southern white society should
consider carefully before it makes
any more radical developments in
the north.
It would be nice, and it would
perhaps be easier, to leave the
Indians of the north to their own
way of life. At the same time,
however, can we morally continue
to allow Canadians (Indians or
white) the luxury of having 1200
people on 2b,0I0O square miles of
land, which the Indians of
Attawapiskat reuire to continue
their lifestyle, while in many
parts of the world people live
nearly piled on top of each other
and millions die of starvation?
Can we continue to leave great
portions of the second largest
nation in the world undeveloped
, and deny people from abroad the
opportunity for fresh air and three
square meals a day? The plight of
the northern Indian is sad, but
can it be any worse 'than the
plight of the children of southern
Asia, Africa and South America?
Of course the saddest thing of
all is that it doesn't really come
down to that choice. In Canada,
the Indians are likely to be
flooded out and left to seek
welfare not for the idealistic
reason of giving the hungry of the
world a new hone, but to give the
spoiled Canadian middle class
greater and greater luxury. The
Indians 'will be displaced and at
the same time tighter immigra-
tion policies will be adopted to
keep the hungry of the world from
corning to Canada and taking the
few crummy jobs that Canadians
don't want to dirty their hands
doing. The Indians are like the
farmers of Canada: city dwellers
may argue that low food prices
are needed to feed our own poor
and that full production of food is
needed to feed the starving of the
world, but what happens in
reality is that greedy middle class
simply wants cheap food so that a
greater portion of the weekly pay
cheque can go to things like golf
club fees and trips to Bermuda
every winter.
Given such morals by the
people of the south, can the
Indians really hope for much
justice, let alone the starving
people of the third world?

Thanks
for the jobs
THE EDITOR:
On behalf of the many
students who found jobs this
summer, we'd like to express our
thanks to those home owners and
employers who hired students
this year.
We at the Manpower Centre for
Students would also like to thank
the Blyth Standard for its help in
providing publicity to the prob-
lems students have in finding
work.
Even though many students
still did not find jobs, placements
through our office were up over
16 percent and, hopefully, even
more students will be successful
next year.
We appreciate the confidence
the employers and students
placed in us by using our
services.
Yours truly,
Christina Cann,
Sandra Freeman,
Jim Barnes.

An Ontario grant of $150,000

acquisition in the Saratoga;
Swamp, Natural Resources Min-

recently.
Located along Sharps Creek in
The Townshie of West
Wawanosh, the swamp comprises
4,000 acres, of which 460 acres
have been previously acquired.
Flood control will be
maintained in the area, which has
been experiencing residential

Acquisition of the land will also

dings. Many came from Bloor-
view Hospital for crippled child-
ren in Toronto to give them group
experiences. Those more handi-
capped received joy from being
dressed and fed by the less
disabled. You could tell by their
laughter that it was far more fun
to be aided by a fellow camper
than by a staff member. The less
handicapped sometimes return as
camp counsellors.
The rule to - treat them as'
children first and cripples second
we were constantly made aware
of. After their two weeks, in •
camp, they were often amazed
and pleased at how much they
could do for themselves. '
Sixteen year old Tommy,
suffering from a birth defect, last I
year arrived at camp on crutches
which he just could not manage.
This year he arrived in a wheel
chair. He was happy to know that
he might live for many years, but
sad to think that his three best
friends, dying of muscular dystro-
phy, he might not see again at
camp. Tommy hoped that Jerry
Lewis's efforts will bring in
enough _ money to effect a
complete cure for muscular
dystrophy, and doctors think they
are very close to a complete cure.
There is a primary, junior,
intermediate, and senior camp
each lasting two weeks. A well
organized program included
swimming. There is one counsell-
or to one camper in this exercise.

iate or senior certificates in Red

arts and crafts, they made beads
and worked with plaster of paris.
In nature craft, they were
transported to a location on the
grounds where they had a fire,
had a cookout and slept out all
night. They enjoyed music (some
are quite good . singers) and
drama. They loved preparing for
and staging their concert on
closing night. The Senior and
intermediate camps had work-
shops at which they learned,
among other things, candle
making and hairdressing and
played at tennis and badminton.
The most popular activity, of
course, was boogie (dancing).
It was the best summer I have
had. I made friends among both
campers and staff and 1 realize I
helped a lot of people less
fortunate than 1. I am more
thankful now for what I have. I am
mobile.
Three campers have already
written to me to say how much
they enjoyed camp. I just don't
like to think of the tears that were
shed when they knew they had to
return home.
Visitors are always welcome at

Newfoundlanders upset with Quebec
THE EDITOR:
On April Fool's Day 1949,
the late Hon. Louis St. Laurent
announced, with great eclat, that
Newfoundland had joined the
Canadian Confederacy. Only a
short time before, in a National
Referendum, the people of
Newfoundland had voted by a
margin of about four percent to
join Canada. Before the Referen-
dum was held, Mr. St. Laurent
said he would accept the decision
of the Referendum if there was a
"significant majority" in favour
of the move. Approximately 48
percent of Newfoundlanders
claimed that joining Canada was a
fraud, a delusion and a snare and
they were being led down the
garden path by a demagogue.
Now is the time to prove them
liars.
Much was made of the benefits
that would accrue to Newfound-
land by lumping its fortunes with
Canada. Little was said of the
assets Newfoundland was bring-
ing to the Confederacy. These
have all been whittled away in the
intervening years, much after the
same manner in which Hitler
whittled away at Europe until he
came to Poland. The reason the
whittling has been so successful
is the lack of interest and under-
standing by Ottawa and the
Canadian Public. No one would
listen to our side of any
controversy or dispute. Poland in
our case is Churchill Falls. We
produce nearly 5,600 megawatts
of electric energy there and the
bulk of it is sold to Quebec. Now
we are asking for the return of 800
of those megawatts but Quebec
would sooner sell them to New
York.
One of the claims of those who
supported our entry into the
Confederacy was that we would
never be able to support
ourselves. They forget that
"never" is a long day. The power
generated at Churchill Falls sold
at current rates would come so
close to paying our way that we
would be able to do away with
quite a few of the taxes with
which we are saddled today.
Instead we are tied to a bad
contract that still has 65 years to
run. Quebec is paying us
something in the order of three
mills per megawatt for this power
and selling it at forty odd. That, if
there is any justice in Canada, is
barefaced robbery. We are not
demanding the return of all the
power. We are asking for enough
to develop our potential, • but
Quebec will not accede to our
request. Instead that Province
wants to sell it abroad at a greater
profit.
Well Canada, what about it?
Sincerely yours,
T.E. Furlong.

From the Minister's Study
Lost in our own backyard
[Based on Luke 15: 11.32]
BY REV. STANLEY C. McDONALD
LONDESBORO UNITED CHURCH
One of Jesus most familiar stories, the story of the Lost Son, or the
Prodigal Son, leaves many of .us with mixed feelings-
Everyone, I'm sure is glad when a young prodigal comes to his sense
and mends his ways. And everyone is glad when a Father nearing the
end of his trail has his heart warmed by the return of the wanderer
whose excesses could not but cause him heartache. But do not know
suite what to do about the older brother. On the one hand we mark him
as a kill-joy and wholly lacking in the love a brother ought to have for
another. We acknowledge that it is childish of him to sulk outside while
the welcome -home party goes on inside.
The older brother is something else than wholly admirable, but we
almost instinctively feel that there is something to be said for him and
his attitude. After all, he had been loyal, he had stayed at home and
tended to business,,.
Nevertheless, one of the things that Jesus meant to say through the
story, I believe, is that it is perfectly possible to be lost in our own back
yard. The only prodigals are not those who squander their money in the
'far country'. Many a decent and honest and respectable person needs
the forgiving love of the Father just as much as those who go in for
riotous living! And because so many of you readers fall into the
category of decent and honest and respectable folks, rather than that of
those whose sins are those of harlots and the hogs, it's worth our while
to see just where this old brother's trouble lay. How could he get lost so
close to home?
I think first, it is plain that he was lost in jealousy. Even reading thi:
story very lightly discloses that familiar green-eyed monster. Jealousy
whether large or small, is one of the most corrosive acids which attacl
personality.
In the second place, this young man was lost in feeling sorry foi
himself. Probably more of us fall into this category than the first. Hit
wail, as I'm sure many will recognize, was 'Nobody loves me'. His egc
was wounded. His feelings were hurt. Since no one else seemed to be

sorry for him, he determined to feel sorry for himself; and because
none was sympathizing with him and feeling sorry for him, he decided
he wasn't going to go in and join the fun.
The older brother, and many of us, get lost in our own back yard
simplay by feeling sorry for ourselves.
In the third place, he was lost in self-righteousness. Hear his
holier-than-thou statement; 'Lo, these many years I have served you,
rand I never disobeyed your command....But this son of
your....devoured your living with harlots.'
Look! What a good boy am 1! Surely that doesn't sound like anyof
us....Or does it? if jealousy is one of the most corrosive ways to be lost
in our own back yard, and feeling sorry for ourselves one of the most
Idebilitating,. certainly self-righteousness is one of the most subtle. And
it is one of the most common 'failings of 'religious' people.
The fourth thing: This young man was lost in his own back yard and
didn't know it. He was sublimely oblivious to his own failures. It wa
plain enough to him that his brother had gotten off the reservation, but
he didn't know that in his own way he had tool
So with us all• The points 1 have made we can all easily see in others,
but, somehow, like the older brother, we just can't see them in
ourselves. You can be lost and not know it. Spiritual Arrogance is not
man's prerogative. The pompous may be as far from the Father as the
sensuous, and the respectable as far as the skid -row derelict.
This is parable of life. If God could have us as he wants us, it
wouldn't be in those high hours when we're winning the applause of
the world. It would be in the mood of penitence, for it is in that mood
alone that we can be saved from being lost in our own back yard.

SWEEP program
'Due to the shortened
employment periods this year,
Program 130 at Maitland Valley
ended on August 20. Authority
Work and all remaining municipal
projects were completed during
the final few weeks of the
Program.
The following is a summary of
the field staff activities for the
month of August.
Falls Reserve Crews - General
park maintenance and gate duty
were again the major activities
undertaken by the Falls Crew.
Clean-up of washrooms, camp-
sites and garbage, cutting grass,
and painting and stacking picnic
tables occupied much of the
crews' time.
Some additional time was spent
in the Sharpes Creek area, as
more logs and debris had to be
winds up at M.V.C.AI..
removed from the stream bed and
banks.
Scything, brushing and
clean-up for the town of Goderich
completed the municipal work
schedule for these crews.
Wawanosh Valley Crews • Along
with general clean-up around the
administrative headquarters,
some crew members were
involved in dismantling the float
which was entered in the
Maryborough township
centennial plus 25 parade. The
float, originally constructed by
Program 130 and Maitland Valley
field staff, won third prize in its
class.
Some time was spent assisting
the Falls crew at Goderich, and
completing construction of the
awning at the Brussels Mill.
Repairs to a weeping bed at the
Hullett council I'ooks
at subdivision play
for Auburn
Hullett council looked at a
possible new subdivision for the
village of Auburn when it met for
its regular meeting in Londesboro
Monday.
Nick Hill, Auburn -area resident
and planner, presented the plan
for the subdivision and explained
it to the council. The council
agreed to approve the plan in
principal and proceed with the
application to the Ministry of
Housing.
Also present at the meeting
was John Nonkes to discuss the
assessment of the Wilson drain.
The clerk read two letters on the
subject and Mr. Nonkes further
explained he considered very
unfair and out of date. Council
felt too that there should be some
attempt at updating the report. E.
G. Uderstadt was named as
engineer to do the reassessment.
Building permits were issued to
Fred Vodden, carport; T.B. Allen, I
shed; and F. Van Steelandt,
holding tank.
Court of revision was held on
the Westerhout drain with no
objections or appeals. The report
was accepted and tenders called
for the drain.
A resolution from West Carle-
ton of hydro poles was endorsed.
At a special meeting on August
23 and much of the time was used
on drainage matters.
The report of the Dubs drain
was held was considered with
Reeve John Jewitt stepping down
from the chair because of possible
conflict of interest. The report
was provisionally accepted and
court of revision set for Sept. 21.
The same held true for the
Gibbings Drainage Works A drain
and the C drain.
There was some misunder-
standing on the Flynn Drainage
Works Repair concerning the
acreages and whether or not they
were correct.
It was decided that a petition
for further work and an appeal to
the ' court of revision would
answer the problems.

farm house on the Wawanosh
property were completed, and a
new gabion/timber bridge was
installed to provide access across
'the Belgrave Creek. In the village
of Lucknow, the crews undertook
brushing, river clean-up, and
removal of fallen willow trees.
Dead trees and brush were also
removed and burned for the town
of Clinton.
Brussels Crew - While some crew
members assisted with construc-
tion of thenew mill awning,
others were involved in landscap-
ing the day use area, removing
weeds and debris from the
property, and installing parking
barriers.
Otherprojects included:
removal of low branches from the
Ethel snow course, garbage
clean-up, cutting grass, replacing
and repairing the footbridge at
the Harriston C.A., placing
additional gabion baskets along
the stream banks at the Harriston
weir, and assisting with the
removal of trees from the
Galbraith C.A. plantation.
River clean-up was done for the
town of Harriston, and the
community centre in Moncrieff
was painted.
Galbraith Crews - After what
seemed like a long summer of
cutting, dragging and burning
trees, the plantation management
at Galbraith has been completed.
Thinning of the plantation was
the largest single project under-
taken this summer.
The Galbraith crew also
constructed a set of sfeps at a
cemetary near Gotham, and
finished painting bridges and
scything along the river bank for
the town of Listowel. From verbal
reports and letters of thanks, it
would seem that member munici-
palities are very pleased with the
work accomplished this summer.
It should also be mentioned
that although there was a larger
staff complement this year than
ever before, there were no major
accidents, no major injuries, and
no vehicle damage.
Some of the problems with the
new 'administrative format have
been solved, some still remain. It
is the general concensus ' of
supervisors, foremen, subfore-
men and labourers that the
number of people in the field far
exceeded the number necessary.
This caused supervisory difficulty
and decreased Program
efficiency.

On the Farm Report
Farmershave Iittle
control of prices
BY GRACE STALKER
Almost daily, city
newspapers have large black
headlines of doom and gloom
about food prices: "Cost of living
up as food prices rise", or
"Farm -gate prices decline on
several commodities, relief in
sight for hard-pressed
consumers."
Such headlines, along 'with
inflation, put consumer interests
at odds with producer needs, as
each group struggles for a better
deal.
The consumer asks questions:
"Just what is happening down on
the farm?", "Are we being
ripped off?", "Are farmers
getting rich at our expense?"
The questions are endless --who
will answer them?
FARMERS AS PRICE -TAKERS
Farmers have traditionally
devoted their energies and
concerns to the production of
food. They have left marketing to
their marketing board or to
chance.
Farmers have been "price -
takers" rather than "price -
Alpha
group gets
new
members
Huron County's Alpha con-
tinues to grow. Twenty-three
persons attended the August
meeting, 10 of them for the first
time:
The members were reminded
of the,day-long workshop for the
handicapped and homebound to
be held at Huronview in Clinton
on September 8.
News came from the Wingham
Library that books taped on
cassettes are available to the
blind. Tape recorders to utilize
the cassettes may also be
borrowed. Other area libraries
offer this service as well.
Another interesting item was
the decision of the provincial
government to refund the sales
tax on vehicles bought' by the
handicapped in 1976.
Entertainment may be coming
our way. Inquiries will be made .to
have the manager of a riding
stable for the handicapped to
show slides to the group in the
near future.
The next Alpha meeting will be
held in the Holmesville School on
Tuesday, September 28 at 8 p.m.
Everyone is welcome.

•
setters," They have been largely
disorganized, supposedly
independent, producers compet-
ing for markets and prices from a
few highly organized buyers.
Farmers have not been too
concerned about consumer
reactions, nor generally much
interested, nor informed, about
world trade agreements, import
and export tariffs and futures
trading. But these influenced the
price farmers received for their
hard work and high input costs.
This state of affairs is now
changing. It had to change)
TODAY'S FARMER IS
CHANGING
Today, farmers are more
aware, more articulate. The a new
breed of farmers have to be
tough, knowledgeable business-
men to survive.
Today, food has become a
political tool and the "politics of
food" and "food power" are the
catch phrases of the times while
powerful consumer lobbies
demand a continuation of a
"cheap food policy."
In its final report, the Food
Prices Review Board asked for a
new national food policy and
blamed supply management
programs for higher food costs.
Recently, a similar proposal
was discussed by ten Federal
deputy ministers. When this
report was "leaked" to the press,
the Consumers' Association of '
Canada began demanding that it
be involved in formulating the
new national food policy.
CFA DEFENDS BOARDS
The Canadian Federation of
Agriculture strongly rejected the
implication that something under-
handed is going on. Marketing
boards all come under the
supervision of regulatory govern-
ment boards which have con-
sumer representation.
CFA also rejected the implica-
tion that without marketing
boards, food prices would magic-
ally decrease -- almost over -night.
this simply would not be the case.
Prices are set on a cost of
production basis, which is the
minimum farmers must have to
survive.
FARMERS MUST HELP
But farm organizations
cannot do the job alone. Farmers
and farm families also have a
public relations job to do.
Farmers must be aware of what
is happening beyond their farm
gate and they must support their
farm organizations -- their only
spokesmen to government and
society. '
As individuals, farmers must
talk to their city friends about the
farm situation. Many urban
people are only one generation
away from farming and are
generally sympathetic 'but lack
knowledge and understanding.

COST OF PRODUCTION
Farmers must talk about
costs of production, the effects of
inflation on farming, the func-
tions of marketing boards, and
the need for society to share some
of the risks -- through govern-
ment contributions to a farm
income protection plan.
Above all, it must be clear that
farmers today demand cost of
production for their product and
that must include a return to
labour. management and invest-
ment. Without this, farmers can't
stay in business.
Unless the exodus from farm-
ing ceases, the wide variety of
Canadian grown food, at reason-
able prices, will become as
unpredictable in supply and price
as sugar, bananas, coffee or oil.
Can the Canadian economy, the
consumer . or the farmer afford
that?

'Tis Show Biz
Never a sour note in Duke's long career
BY VONNI LEE
'Have you ever bombed? I
mean, really bombed????'
What a question to ask a
performer! Is there an entertainer
anywhere that has not, at
sometime in his life, played to a
half -full house or got a lousy
review? But, the answer to the
question surprisingly, was an
emphatic 'No.." then a modest
"I've been lucky", -
It hasn't been just luck, For in
his lifetime Duke Ellington has
captivated more audiences and
played to more full houses than
almost any entertainer of his
time, Even.when he wasn't on the
stage, his music played to full
houses and exuberant receptions.
And even as he is no longer alive,
his music lives and so does Duke,
If you have ever felt a wave of
the blues come over you, there is
no music to tell your story as well
as Duke Ellington's. "You ain't
been blue 'til you've had the
Mood Indigo", he wrote in one of
the greatest blues numbers of all
times and you could feel the notes
down to the toes of your shoes.
Many of the musicians from the
deep south who wrote about the
blues, made them come alive.
because they had lived them,
While Ellington's family was still
on the black 'servant' side of the
coin, they were not destitute, At
the time of Duke's birth, his
father was a butler in the White
House. Not exactly Starvation
Street!
Deep within the man's soul,
though, were some restless notes
and words waiting to get out,
stories that told if not of his own
heartaches, of the hardships of
his people. "1 Cover The
Waterfront" and "I Got it Bad
and That Ain't Good" were only a

"The federal legislation is
comprehensive and probably 80
percent of it is useful. But then
provinces had to climb on the
consumerism bandwagon and
draft legislation of their own. The
objectives are the same but the
fine print is different and
advertisers tell me that keeping
up with the differences is almost
impossible. Once again, too many
cooks are spoiling the broth."

"Take press releases," said
another. "They're handed out
undigested by media relations
bureaucrats. Most of them are
useless, the guiding principle is
volume, to justify the jobs of the
senders. Not long ago one from
the Post Office informed us, in

A publisher described how
local officials of a federal
department, working with provin-

impoverish communities which
don't fit into the development
plan. Community A is striving for
self-sufficiency, but is outside the
development area. Community B

few of the memorable thought-
provoking songs that came from
the man's pen and heart.
There were the jazz tunes too -
the theme song, "Take the A
Train" and the man's simple
philosophy about music: "It
Don't Mean a Thing if It Ain't Got
That Swing". It may not have
been a lesson in grammar but it
sure was in good jazz!
Ellington took his music
seriously. In fact, when he wrote
his autobiograhy he entitled it
"Music Is My Mistress" - many
kinds of woman to a man but
always, just the woman he had
always been looking for.
Duke Ellington must have
performed for just about every
famous person in the world
during his career. His records are
collectors' items, On his 70th
birthday at a ceremony in the
White House, President Nixon
presented him with the country's
highest civilian honour, the
Presidential Medal of Freedom.
He composed dance numbers,
film scores, stage, ballet and
opera, sacred music and orches-
tral suites. And yet he remained a
gentle humble man, He died in
1974 at the age of 75.
1 listened to two hours of
Ellington last Sunday on "The
Entertainers" on CBC Radio. He
was a simple man with simple
music that appealed to everyone.
It was easy to imagine him sitting
at the piano talking about his
'mistress'. The show was
prepared by Lilly Barnes and
Greg Gallaher who on September
26 will present a similar profile on
Louis Armstrong. —
She summed it up rather nicely
when she said, "I met Duke
Ellington when he was 74 and
I refuse to use the term 'old'."
And that about sums up his
music. The beautiful mistress will
never become old or be tossed
aside for she is ever youthful,
ever lovely, ever comforting and
ever a part of the Duke.

'Huron gets mental health centre: for children and youth
BY RON SHAW
The new Huron Centre for
Children and Youth became a
reality on Wednesday, September
1 when the first'board of directors
were elected at a public meeting
held in the Clinton Public School.
The Ministry of Health for the
Province of Ontario gave approval
for the creation of a children's
mental health centre recently to
provide specialized services for
children and youth in Huron
County. The Huron Centre will be
incorporated under the Children's
Mental Health Centre's Act and
serve as a psychiatric facility
under the Mental Health Act.
Formation of such a service
became necessary following the
closing of the Goderich
Psychiatric Hospital and its child
care and adolescent unit.
A steering committee,
composed of staff and adminis-
trators of existing health and
social service organizations along
with interested professional and
lay people, have been meeting
over the past four months to
examine the need for such
specialized services ,for children
and youth and a nominating
committee of that group handed
down a list of prospective board
members to the September 1
meeting.
The board of directors will
consist of 11 persons. Nomination
Committee chairman Norm
Pickell of Goderich told the
meeting that the committee had
attempted to put forward the
names of persons who would
represent the other agencies
concerned with the new program
and persons who would represent
the whole of Huron County in a
geographic sense.
One of the directors will be a
representative of Huron County
Council and will be named when
the council meets later this
month.
Cars
cigarettes
dangerous
inventions
Cars and cigarettes are
society's two worst inventions,
says a survey of school -children.
In a recent poll of children in
grades three through six, seventy
percent said cigarettes should not
have been invented. Almost as
many, 60 percent, condemned
the creation of cars.
Both inventions take the lives
of hundreds of thousands of
Americans and Canadians each
year. And disable many more.
both inventions also pollute the
air for %lmost everybody.
There were other culprits on
the' children's blacklist. thirty
percent opposed airplanes for
high fuel consumption and
pollution. Twenty percent put
down alcohol and drugs. Ten
percent downgraded dish-
washers. And ten percent even
mixed television.
1.
The negatives make a positive
pattern. The ideal society, the
youngsters seem to be saying, is a
smoke-free, pollution -less place
where people value their own
health and don't inflict damage
on others.
The Lung ASsociations are
vitally interested in creating and
reinforcing such attitudes.(
Special films and materials about
smoking and air pollution have
been designed for young
children, even those in kinder-
garten. "Octopuff in Kumquat",
and animated film about an
imaginary monster who intro-
duces smoking into one village
and is subdued by the village
children, is one of the most
popular materials.
Elected to the new board were,
Mrs. Carol R. Egner, principal of
the Goderich Municipal Day
Nursery; Bruce Heath, director of
the Huron County Children's Aid
Society, Mrs. Ilia Kayos, Student
Services Co-ordinator for the
Huron Board of Education and
Dr. Bruce Thomson, a doctor
specializing in family medicine at
Goderich and representing the
Huron Medical Association.
These four, the Nominating
Committee explained, were put
forward as agency
representatives.
Others elected to the board
were Mrs. Helen Bartliff of
Clinton, Rev. Jack Beaton of
Centralia, Mrs. Donna Cornwall
of Wingham, Howard James of
Egmondville, Mrs. Joanne Jasper
of Goderich and William Gregg of
Goderich Township. Also
nominated but losing in the
election was Mrs. Mona
Mulhern of Goderich.
During an open question period
a panel, made up of members
from the steering committee,
clarified a number of points about
the new cenjre.
The new program is meant to
be a community-based service
and has not been designed, or
sufficiently funded, to provide
in-patient services. In such cases
patients would be referred to
hospital or for long term
treatment to the london Psychia-
tric Hospital.
Rather' than taking,thc child to
the Children's Psychiatric
Research Institute at London for
example, the committee
explained that the new program
would work right in the home with
the parents and child as well as in
the schools.
The cominittee admitted that
the group would be forced to
duplicate some of the services
offered by the Children's
Psychiatric Research Institute
(C.P,11.1.) as at present it is often
necessary to wait for seven weeks
for the initial appointment for
assessment. It was also
suggested that C.P.R.I. is
situated too far away for regular
follow-up treatment.
Huron Public Health Nurse
Joanne Jasper also pointed out
that the biggest gap in such
• services to children is between
the ages of two and five. Between
the time the doctor stops seeing
the child on a regular basis and
the time he or she is screened by
the Public Health authorities as a
pre-schooler.
She said that an effort must be
made to make parents aware that
the new program exists and is
available if they are having
problems. Mrs. Jasper also
suggested the formation of
groups where the mothers and
children would come together and
discuss common problems. Ways
must be found to stimulate
children and contribute to normal
growth and development.
Such programs were also seen
as a means through which early
indentification of learning disabil-
ities could be made.
The new services will reach
out, as much as possible, to the
people. A central base is
envisioned, perhaps in Clinton,
but unit workers would go out to.
satelite operations in 'each of the
major County communities so
that no one would have to travel
very far to reach the services.
Some such children will be
refered to the new centre by the
schools and staff from the unit
will likely visit- the schools and
work especially with special
education teachers.
The Province of Ontario has
earmarked $185,000 for the first
year of operation in Huron. After
that the group. will provide its
estimates for each upcoming year
and a budget will be struck.
At present no psychiatric
services are available to groups
like the Children's Aid Society,
Correctional Services, and the
Board of Education but the new
Ht'"^n Centre for Children and
Yc mouth pe to begin providing
service in the very. near future.

THE BLYTH STANDARD, SEPTEMBER e, 1976. PO.13.
Never. try to .write a column in the backyard
an overripe cherry, chest like a
peeling boiled beet. Furious
because of the way she looks and
feels.
I don't burn. After a dreadful
experience as a kid, when I had to
sit for two days and nights in a
chair, plastered from head to toe
with some concoction of my
mother's for sunburn (was it
baking powder or baling soda?), I
keep my lily limbs covered. Oh, I
get what we call a farmer's tan,
forearms, face and neck, but the
rest of me is white as the driven
snow.
I don't turn around to look
behind me at that house. Aside
from my suffering wife inside,
there is the outside. That
beautiful green vine, so much
admired by visitors;. is climbing
, the brick wall like a giant squid,
pulling the bricks loose one by
one, and occasionally hurling one
down, just above the back door..
At today's rates for repairs, that
brickwork will likely cost me more
than it cost to build the house,
70 -odd years ago.
Let's change the subject. In
fact, I think I'll break off for a
moment, it's" so painful: There's
the garbage can to bring in.
Maybe I'll get my seven iron out
of the car trunk and cut some
weeds. That's what I use instead
of a hoe.
There, that's better. My swing
was right on today. Kept my head
down, my eye on the weed, took a
slow back swing, and one whole
flower bed is weedless.
Also pushed the lawn mower
under the spruce tree, to keep the
rain off, and picked up the
grandkids inflatable swim pool,:
which, after a week sitting there
full of rain, grass and bugs, left a
big round dead patch in the lawn.
Good work, Bill.
More distractions. A cheeky
black squirrel, looking for a
handout. Dumb cat rubbing
against. my leg, looking tor the
same. Three ugly grackles,
striding splay -footed and
insolent, across my lawn, pecking
up the fresh grass seed.
Ahahl What's that noise, down
the lane. Better stroll down and
see. Great. A Bell telephone truck
and two young fellows digging a
post hole. Entire • neighbourhood
watches. Machinery digs hole,
erects pole with ease. Old timers
comment scornfully. Remember
when you dug them by hand, with
a spoon shovel. Brutal hard work.
work,
There's the fire engine! Better
jump in the car and follow. Holy
old jumpin' ! Why do they let all
these crasies folow the fire truck
through town at 50 miles an hour?
Somebody might be killed.
Wasn't much. Just some dumb
housewife let the fat boil over on
the stove while she was watching
her soap opera. But it might have
been a good one. Like the old
lumber mill last week. That was a
dandy.
Should get back to the column.
Oh, no. There's the old battleaxe
at the back door, wailing, "What
are you doing out there, just
sitting around enjoying yourself,
!when you know I'm in igeny?'
;Least you could do is put a
washing through and sweep the
kitchen floor; it's filthy. And you
haven't brought me any fresh tea
for two hours.
Oh, lordv. Who's this pulling
up? It can't be, It is, It's those
people we met at a part two years
ago and insisted with great
fervor and sincerity that if they
were ever in our neck of the
woods, to look us up. Look at that.
Three kids and a dog. Oh, dear.
Perhaps you can understand
now why I hate being a
schoolteacher and having the
summer off and having to write
my column out under the trees,
instead of writing it at my desk in
mid -winter.

BY BILL SMILEY
Boy, 1 can't think of anything
more harrowing than trying to
write a column sitting at the
picnic table in the backyard on a
mid -summer day.
I envy those writers who have a
nice, quiet study, preferably
without windows, in which to do
their work. No distractions, no
disruptions. Just the writer and
his machine, the words pouring:
onto the clean white paper like
sparkling wine onto a white linen
tablecloth.
It's almost imposible for me to
concentrate on turning out a piece
of 'taut, fascinating, creative
prose for more than a minute or
two, sitting here today. Too many
interruptions.
Not only do I not have no
windows, if you'll pardon the
triple negative, it's just one big
window, and I can't stop looking
through ,it. If it was possible to
turn my head in a 360 degree
circle, lewould see' an entire
world, mostly green, in
miniature. '
There's my neighbour, Helen,
at the clothesline. Uh-huh. Looks
like her granddaughter was here
for the weekend. Ten diapers on
the line, among the towels and
sheets. Doesn't . believe in
disposables. I do.
There's a sawing sound across
the fence. Wonder wiry -at my
neighbour, Jim, is working at this
fine, sunny day. Better saunter
over and check it out. We'll have
a chat about the iniquities of the
town council
Here comes Patsy Woods, a
third side neighbour, with her
little brother. Bad news. One of
my huge oak limbs, about two
feet in diameter, the one that
hangs right over their house, has
a split right up the trunk. Have to
go and look. Yeah, that's bad,
Patsy. I'll have to call George, the
tree man, and have it taken down.
Pity, but it will provide some
excitement for the neighbour-
hood.
Right behind' me is the big,
square, brick house in which lurks
my old lady, suffering from the
mummy of all sunburns. Nose like

How to tell if a wife's hubby's an alcoholic
it is:
DEAR ANN: A wife's behavior
toward her husband is the best
clueto whether or not he is an
alcoholic. If he is a problem
drinker she will probably:
1, Make excuses for his
drinking and mother him.
2. Drag him out of bed in the
morning and make sure he goes
to work'. If he's got a bad
hangover, phone his place of
employment and say he's sick.

Rough Seas To Sunrise by
Jennifer Ames
Jane is a nurse and a rather
fortunate one, as her job involved
accompanying a patient first to
New York and then on to Maine.
There she met a Dick Cresswell
and on his luxury yacht bound for
South America and Cuba, there
was Jaspar -- a very extraordinary
'ordinary' seaman. Jane's
adventures are quite enthralling
with both romance and mystery
providing some delightful,,
reading.
The Fire -Dwellers by Margaret
Laurence
From the pen of one of
Canada's most brilliant writers
comes a very human and
compelling story as it tells of
Stacey MacAindra, her husband
and her four children. Stacey's
Canadian city becomes so
vibrantly real that her story
rediscovers the richness of the
commonplace, and the pain and
beauty contained in simply being
alive. She stands for every
woman, but most essentially
herself.,
The Wild One by Monica
Edwards
When paw marks of a puma are
found near Punchbowl Farm,
there are naturally fears for the
cattle and horses. Then Lindsey
finds the orphaned puma cub,
and she and her friend, Roger,
attempt to keep the cub alive at
all costs. But what is to become of
it when Roger returns home `and
Lindsey goes • back to school?
However events take an /
unexpected turn and it looks as if
Lindsey's problem will be solved.

bars he frequents and instruct
them to "Go get Daddy and
bring him home.

see her red -eyed and miserable.
14. Refuse to sleep with him.
15. Keep on having children by
him.
16. Buy him tools or sports
equipment so he will have
something to do besides drink

off).
17. Leave him.
18. Go back to him.
19. Spend the night in a hotel.
20. Spend it with the
neighbours.

because he failed to come home to
eat on time.

crises in the home forces her to do
so -- she will do the one thing that
makes sense. She will get her
husband or herself and the
children out of the house unless
he promises to quit drinking for

Bridal Shower:
It was in July, 1975 that Dianne
received her degree
A degree in nursing, she
obtained,
and with pediatrics, she sustained
One year in London at St. Jo's,
Isn't it strange how fast it goes.
Remember your primary, school
years,
Ponytails, public speaking, your
peers,
Off to summer camp did you go,
It all seems so long ago.
On to high school in Seaforth you
went
Many long hours in Mathematics
you spent,
And just when you thought you
were in the hole.
You were an Ontario Scholar,
what a goal!
Remember Germany! You had a
good time,
lots of good food, plenty of wine,
Do you mind that one fellow ?
what a pest,
And you left good old Phil at
home for a rest.
Now who knows exactly when
Dianne and Phil met,
Their acquaintance turned out to
be a sure thing - you bet!
As you will see on September the
third
Their vows will be spoken and
very well heard.
On to Kitchener, they'll go,
Where she will manage to cook,
work and sew
Her many duties will keep her
busy as 4 bee,
But she is quite capable as you
will agree.
This evening your neighbors and
friends so dear,
Have brought you gifts, good
wishes sincere.
Many God richly bless your
married life,
As you travel together as man and
wife.
May all the joys and happiness
that life can bring your way, good
health, and good friends, good
fortune, .throughout each future
day, be yours. -- Best Wishes and
Congratulations •• Your friends,
neighbours and relatives,
Gifts were brought in byl
Heather McDonald, Cheryl
Fraser and Ross Loomans, Janice
Houston and Brenda Mathers put
the bows from the parcels on an
apron and put it on the
bride -elect. A tablecloth made by
Phyllis Mitchell and names were
signed on it with cameo paints as
they arrived and now was
presented to Dianne. She thanked
everyone for the lovely gifts, "For
she's a jolly good fellow" was
sung followed by a delicious lunch
served by the 8th and 16th unit
ladies when a social half hour was
enjoyed.
Take a step in the right
direction. Take a few.

dear Parents, Grandparents and
Great Grandparents, Grace Edna
Bromley, who passed away nine
years ago, Friday, September 8,
1976 and Willie Bromley, Sr. who
passed away two years' ago,
Sunday, September 8, 1974.
You can only have two parents,
Patient, kind and true,
No other friends in all the world
Will be so true to you,
For all their loving kindness,
They ask nothing in return.
If all the world deserted us,
To our Parents we could turn,
To those who have their
Parents,
Treasure them with care,
For you never know their value,
Till you see their vacant chairs.
- Sadly missed and will always be
loved and remembered by son
Harold, daughter-in-law Irene,
Grandchildren and Great Grand-
children from Listowel, Clinton
and Elmira. 36-1

forget,
A beautiful memory .of one so
dear,
We cherish you still with love

How much we lost one year'
ago.

In MemOYiai I.
HOGGART, In loving memory of
a very dear son, John Hoggart,
who passed away one year ago
today, September 12, 1975„ as
the result of an accident.
UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN
JOHN!
I watched you suffer, I watched
you die,
But all I could do was just stand
by,
When your time came I
suffered too,
For you never deserved what
you went through,
God took your hand we had to
part,
He eased your pain and broke
my heart ,
You fell asleep without goodbye,
But memories of you will never
die,.
Your resting place I visit,
And place your flowers with
care,
But no one knows the heartache
When I walk away and leave
you there.
If teardrops could build a
stairway,
And memories were a lane,
1 would walk all the way to
Heaven,
And bring you home again.
--Sadly missed and dearly loved
by his Mother, Helen 1. Hoggart
