The Blyth Standard, 1978-04-19, Page 1an WEDNESDAY, APRIL 19, 1978 BLYTH, ONTARIO, Price: 2 • 0 Cents Volume 88 -- No. 16 Board of trade. Wants dentist A dentist for Blyth was on the Blyth Board of Trade agenda of things to get for Blyth to make the village a better place to live. At a dinner and general meeting at the Blyth Inn, Monday evening, Board. of Trade members selected a committee to look into attracting a dentist for .Blyth,. Peter Reinsma, Don Scrimgeour and Janice Vodden are to look into the possibilities. A motion was passed that the board of trade support the monthly Blyth Centre for the Arts kiddie films with $25, to cover the deficit. It was also suggested by members that the board of trade advertise these/ films so that all the children in the area are aware and attend the films presented in Blyth Memorial Hall. President Joe Chatterton has received calls concerning the possibility of another bank in Blyth, After much discussion the group felt another bank was unwarranted and that Blyth did not have enough business to attract another bank. The board of trade is to request council to supply 2 -hour limit barking signs for the business area. It was pointed out that store merchants are using parking space along the main street and this makes less space for paying customers, Some days travellers leave their vehicles on the main street and are there for days on end. There is no enforcement for the time limit. it was still the overall consent that signs signalling a time limit would be beneficial. A letter is to be sent to clerk Larry Walsh concerning reinsta- ting a tree planting program that was dropped 9 years ago. Every year 20 trees in Blyth are destroyed and no replacements are made, An ad is to be placed in the Blyth Standard concerning the summer store h ours. Plans were suggested as to what Blyth can do about the International Plowing Match to be held just east of Wingham. There will be plenty of traffic goi ng through Blyth and it was suggested that the merchants have a sidewalk days sale to attract travellers. Brock Vodden told members that display space at the Plowing Match would cost a minimum of $270 for an 18 foot wide space. It was pointd out that Blyth should try and stop shoppers in Blyth rather than go to the match to promote the village. The mat .ter is to be discussed at the next meeting. It was reported that there arc 42 paid up. members of the board.

West Wawanosh Grave/ tender accepted Bannerman Contracting Ltd. received the contract for gravel from West Wawanosh Township at its April session. Five tenders were received. Bannerman of R.R.4, Kincardine, is to be paid $1.15 and 95 cents per yard respectively for crushing and applying on township roads approximately 12,000 cubic yards; stockpiling approximately 1,000 cubic yards of 'A' gravel, subject to the approval by the IvCtnistry of Transportation and Communications. Council accepted the Maitland Valley Conservation Authority's "Fill line mapping" for the Township. Two representatives form the Authority explained its purpose, advantages and use. The maps are to be registered by the authority with the province. After lengthy discussionand consideration, council approved a building permit for Ross Brindley for the construction of a new sow barn on his farm lot on the edge of Dungannon. The permit is still subject to approval from the Huro County Health Unit. Two Auburn Trustees attended the meeting to request Council to order sufficient culvert lengths to install on the hill at the westerly edge of •the village to provide more efficient drainage. The rad superintendent is to order the necessary pipe. Council agreed to have a beaver dam destroyed at the request of Roy Robson, R. R. #2, Auburn. Mr. Robson appeared before council regarding a severe water problem at the back of his farm, apparently caused by a beaver dam. The drainge super- intendent reported that the beavers are not there now. Council granted building permits to Harold Menary, for a house; and Eric Stewart for an addition, A tile drain loan on Lot 24, Concession 3, for $20,000 was approved by council. The clerk was directed to write county clerk treasurer Bill Hanley that West Wawanosh Township council is in agreement with County wide residency for senior Londesboro citizens. Bylaw #6 was given third reading and passed. It outlines the extension to the Dungannon Drain and provides for assess- ment. Council will apply to the Ontario Municipal Board for a permit to finance the installation of street lighting in the police village of Auburn with the approval of Townships of East Wawanosh and Hullett. The two townships have agreed to pay their share of the principle and interest due to West Wawanosh Township. General accounts of $2,545.32 were ordered paid. Truck bursts into flames A truck burst into flames and was completely destroyed Friday afternoon, cast of Londesboro. Blyth fire officials put out the fire at the home of Ron Gross, R.R.#1, Londesboro. The cause is unknown, Mr, Gross had just started for Brussels to pick up a load of pigs when he noticed the truck was acting strangely and returned home. He had just turned off the engine and gotten out when he saw flames at the bottom of the truck. The fire department was called to put out the fire due to the close proximity of a gas tank located beside the truck, No injuries were reported. Mr. Gross has insurance but was uncertain of the amount, 2 -- THE BLYTH STANDARD, APRIL 19, 1978 Recent house guests with Mr, and Mrs, Geroge Hamm Sr, were Mr. and Mrs, Norman Hamm of Sundridge and Mr, and Mrs, Elmer Mcrrick and family of Toronto.

Effective immediately, the in- corporated family farm will re- ceive the same tax break as the smaller farmer when it comes to transferring farm properly to sons or daughters. Until now, the "Tax-free roll- over" has applied only to bonaf ole farmers rather than incorporated family operations. Under the new law, the rollover will co ver transfers to children of shares and interests in the farm coporations or partnerships. The federal budget defined qualifiers as those corporations or partnerships carrying on farm businesses in . Canada who pat nearly all assets into the bus- iness, and with one or more family members actively engaged in running the farm. Mike Miller, assistant lig rep for Huron County, said the new law will likely affect 100 in- corporated farms in the county. 1 -le said according to the 1976 census, there were 97 incorporat- ed farms in Huron County. Mr, Miller said the new law niay not be as dramatic a reform as it seems since many farmers incorporated their holdings with the idea of estate planning anyway. In addition to the capital gains tax break, the, budget also allowed for the transfer of quotas among partners in .an incorporat- ed farm. Mr, Miller said the quota transfer may prove even more significant than the tax breaks. '-le said currently quotas are essentially given to one person. Mr, Miller said the question facing farmers now is whether the quota transfer will be a one-shot deal or whether it can be used again. Fot' example, can a farmer give his son one-third of his .milk quota now and oar.-fhirrl Einar with the From me to you THE BLYTH STANDARD, APRIL 19, 1978 3 Mourning the loss of 14 candy (By Rhea Hamilton] With all the talk of nutritious fends and vitamins there are still a few of us who choose to cat candy. But the day of cheap good tasting candy is quickly coming to_ a close at least for those of us who have good candy taste, Now you niay think i have not been around long enough to see ►uay change in the candy market, but the changes conk rapidly and without care. Hot and fast, new items are developed to attract the sweet toothes. When 1 was little the big treat of the week was ]ring given a dime to go to the garage across from nay gr'andmother's when we were in town once a week to shop. Then you could buy a chocolate bar, or guns with baseball or monster cards in them. Jawb- breakcrs were still only 1 c. With the increase in the price of chocolate and sugar it came without saying, that the candy casts would rise as well as everything else, 13c1'ore they, the manufac- turers, raised prices they decreased the size of the candy bars. But the inevitable came about and the price of a candy bar has increased from the 10c we are all familiar with to the 30c we shake our heads over now. Even the day of the lc jaw breakers has passed to another C111. They too suffered a 100% increase and are now priced at 2c. Even licorice ' costs more pennies (if pennies are still used .... most kids ask for dimes or quarters when they are out to get "n treat under their tongues) and the taste of the products are not as good as they once were. But then there is the theory that nothing is as good as it was when you were a y oungster and never will be. That's the fascination of history. The past becomes softer with time and the bad times in a lot of cases are shadowed by the good limes, Maybe times docs heal. But back to the candy situation. i know it is not good for you but fon' anyone who was raised with a special sweet for when they were good it is really hard to grow out' of 'longing for that special something. They have new candies out now that must surely fascinate the lads today. There are tiny crystals which when put under your tongue give an exploding sensation which also echoes in your cars. Amazing eh? Make fou wonder if the explosions cause temporary deafness after a long period of use. Even the sin of bubble gum chewing can not be bought cheaply since you can't buy gum I'm under 2c. There is still the one cent bubble guns but it conies in a package of five for five cents. So there you arc. The candy of today is much better displayed and better promoted with commercials on the 'i'V.

Mr. Miller said farmers will have to wait and sec what sort of provision has been made under the new law regarding quota transfers.

It has been ten y ears since the Ontario censor board raised its head and met challenges and curses. The film Pretty Baby has been barred by provincial censors and film critics are opposed to the Ontario ban. Reviewers praise director Louis Malle's "sensitive, serious minded exploration not exploitation" of the screen love affair between a girl raised in a house of prostitution and real life figure Ernest Bellocq who was a photographer whose portraits of prostitutes in New Orleans are now regarded, 60 years later, as works of art. The basis for censor's banning of the film is the theme. Louis Malle appeared before the Ontario censor board to question the ban and invited discussion between board members and himself. The director says he left the session sadly angered by the blindness of the board. The effect playing the part would have had on the 12 year old actress Brooke Shields was raised. But interview s have shown this mature child was not offended or mentally damaged by the film she appeared in and in fact may have had a better understanding of what the film portrayed than the reviewing censor board. The controversy raises several questions about censorship. When did the censor board get involved with censoring topics instead of their treatment? Might there be similar bans on other distasteful subjects like racism, slavery and incest? What makes Pretty Baby different from a film like Taxi Driver which also included a 12 year old prostitute among its characters and which was approved by the censors? Does the head censor see any irony in banning a film with the credentials of Pretty Baby while accepting skin flicks with titles like Sex with the Devil anti Massage Parlor Hookers? Does the Pretty Baby ban signal the beginning of a stricter code to be followed by the board, and is this related to the recent shoeshine boy sex murder in Toronto? While these questions remain unanswered, mature movie goers in this province may feel like the pre -teen lady of the evening in Pretty Baby who says to Bellocq "I am not a child". He - like the censor board apparently - replies "That's your opinion".

It's spring I'BY Keith Roulslonl Along with head colds and influenza there's another ailment that SCC111s t0 catch a major Ixlrtion of' the Canadian population about this time every year: playoff -itis. Hockey isn't the addiction it once was in this country. Ten years ago all activity virtually used to halt every Saturday night so Canadians could gather round the television to watch Hockey Night in Canada. Expansion, dilution of hockey talent, the increasing Americanization of the league and many other factors large and small have meant that throughout the long, long regular season, Canadians scent to yawn a hit at the antics of their heros on the ice. They may even, heresy of heresies, go out on the town on a Saturday night instead of staying honk to watch the game. But in the spring, in playoff time, all that scenes to change. No platter how boring the game scented only a week before when the regular schedule was being played out, soddenly the game has new drama and millions will give up anything to watch the game. I'd become downright disenchanted 'arching the Leafs fumble their way through the last month of the season this year. 1 hadn't even watched the last several games. yet here was coaling home from a meeting at 1 1 p.nl. suffering from a head 0)1(1 that had sapped every ounce of strength for the past two days and here 1 was sitting down to watch a hockey game From the west coast. You've got to be crap'. But then that's what hockey can still do to normally sane (now i heard you snicker and that's not nice) individuals. ' There's an electricity in .the air when it comes to playoff hockey and people who've never watched the game all year long suddenly become interested. Whereas a win here or there didn't • seem so important a month ago during the regular schedule, here even a goal is a major happening because it could spell the different between going on to glory. or watching your heros take an early vacation. Emotion is high in the audience and in the players. Ordinary players become stars. The chance of the Cinderella story is always there. 1 guess my own addiction to playoff hockey goes way back to childhood, Playoffs then were 011 the radio because television was an unheard of luxury in our neighbourhood at the time, something only the decadent town and city dwellers could afford. So we glued our ears to the radio and listened to the Montreal Canadicns blast their way through the opposition. My family were fans of anybody but the Canadicns. I was for the Montrealer•s so there was a good deal of good-natured argument. It was the days of the Rocket and the Pocket Rocket, of Beliveau (my hero), Boons Boone Geoffrion, Doug Harvey, Bert Hockey time Olmstead, Dickie Moore and of course Jacques Plante. 1'11c Canadicns power play was so awesome that to take a penalty against them was to automatically give up a goal. It was that lower play that brought about the rule change that allowed the short handed team to get their elan 0(11 of the penalty box onc,i a goal was scored. Before that rule 11' a team took a pcntaly against the Canadicns in the first minute of the game, you might as well forget the rest of elle game. It could be 5.0 before the penalty expired. Hockey took on new meaning with the coming of television. One of Illy most vivid memories as a youngster was being invited over to the neighbours one Saturday night to watch a game on their new television. Several years later when we got our own set I was still a Canadicns fan and normally it would have been frustrating because only Leaf games were shown. But there was a strike at C.B.C. in Toronto that year and the Montreal games were shown instead. That was the year though that the Leafs began their fairy talc finish and made it into the playoff's for the first time in years by inning the last game of the schedule. They played well in the playoffs though not well enough and the days of glory of the Leafs were on the way back. Johnny Bower, Frank Mahovolich, Bob Pulford, Red Kelly, Tim Horton, Carl Brewer, Alan Stanley, Dick Duff, they became heros to us as we played on the pond ice. In truth, they played a pretty dull kind of hockey but they won and won. Stanley Cup celebrations became a habit in Toronto and some how we all felt part of them. The decline of the Leafs came about the sante time as the decline in the quality of • hockey in general. With expansion in the late '60's when it became obvious that certain teams would win nearly every game while other teams would lose nearly every game the excitement went out of hockey for a while. Even playoff hockey got a little boring with the exception of a few outstanding moments like the upset victory of Canadiens over Boston a few years back when Ken Dryden became an overnight hero. The tong wars between- Toronto and Philadelphia the last couple of years brought some new interest but there was seldom any doubt who was going to win in the long run, This year I think there's more interest than in years, at (east on my part and I senseonthe part of others too. For one thing the Leafs look stronger especially after their easy wins over Los Angeles, But most of all 1 think the interest is there because you have the feeling that any of the top six teams might be able to pull an upset that a Cinderella story could be in the making; • It probably won't happen but the possibility is part of the fascination of the game. It's got ale hooked anyway. Family farms get tax break THE BLYTH STANDARD , ,, — (Continued from Page 13) their plans, Ross Proctor, of Bodmin Farms, an incorporated farming operation in the Brussels area, said the tax reform was long overdue. Mr, Proctor said a good many farmers are incorporating today and the current reform will bring the tax situation for them up-to- date. Harry Haney, a Lethbridge, Alberta farmer visiting at Bodmin Farms, has been involved in the problem of dividing an in- corporated farm among family members for some time. Mr. Haney said the future of their family farm, a partnership between his father and uncle, was in jeopardy before the passage of the capital gains tax reform. The farmer said the two brother wanted to divide their farming operation among members of the next generation. Earlier this year, the govern- ment passed Bill C-11, an a- mendment to the tax act which allowed for a division of assets between existing partners in an incorporated business with a deferment of the capital gains tax. Although Bill C-11 was an improvement over previous tax laws, it still didn't allow for an incorporated farm to be divided among members of the next generation without paying the capital gains tax. Mr. Haney said in the case of his family's business, 31 per cent of the value of the farm's assets would have to be paid in taxes to transfer the farm to the next generation 'Mr. Haney said his family would have had to sell the farming operation, "bring in the Hutterites and have an auction sale." The tax reform now allows rollover to the the next generation and deferment of the capital gains tax which will keep the Haney operation in the family. Mr. Haney said he believes the reform came about partly from significant pressure on the government from MPS from Western Canada, The farmer said Donald Mac donald, the former finance niinis- ter, was not infavor of dividing incorporated family farms due to potential tax abuses. However, Mr, Haney said Jean Chretien, the present minister of finance, proved more receptive to the idea. The farmer added there will still be problems for government officials in policing legitimate divisions versus those who divide businesses solely to receive tax benefits. Although the problem of divis- ion of a family business have been solved for farmers, Mr. Haney said, "after a fair bit of study, it seems to us that the capital gains tax laws really allow large com- •Lifeittlie If boating is a part of your fall Lifestyle, remember - don't overload the boat, stand up, change positions or turn too suddenly.

Think safety - play safe. panies to stay large companies and prevent small companies from ever becoming large." He said the capital gains laws deal a death blow to many spiall businesses when taxes have to be paid every time the business passes from one generation to the next. , Mr, Haney said captial gains taxes arc still "a killer to the small business. 1 It's Catching at Wright -Taylor Ltd - Seaforth 1977 MONTE CARLO AIR CONDITIONING Landau top, 305 V8 engine.

Larry Swinn, public relations coordinator for the Farm Safety Association of Ontario, `says tractor -related accidents caused 18 fatalities on Ontario farms last year. According to the statistics compiled by the Association, these tractor -related fatalities ac- counted for nearly 40 percent of the total number of farm fatalities in 1977. "These accidents could have been prevented if farmers were more safety conscious," Tractor rollovers, resulting primarily from unsafe operating practices and lack of common sense, caused the majority of these fatalities. "Many accidents occur be- cause farmers rush too much. To get crops planted farmers work overtime, often beyond their physical capabilities." This creates the potential for injuries, This season Mr. Swinn sug- gests farmers slow down and take extra time to do the work. Working the land in a logical manner will put the farmer ahead in the long run. Before taking the equipment out on the field, Mr, Swinn suggests farmers make sure the tractor is well maintained and in safe working order. "Equipment breakdowns costs the farmer valuable time. To make up the lost time farmers have to run the tractor faster than ever. This invites accidents." CHURCH OF GOD McConnell St., Blyth Pastor Cecile Marquette, Service 11 A.M.

E. Wawanosh F of A. Hears about farm accidents Already this year four persons have died due to farm accidents and 50 more deaths forecasted for 1978, in Ontario according to O.P,P Constable Bill Wilson who spoke to the East Wawanosh Federation of Agriculture's an- nual meeting, Thursday, Many members raised quest- ions on maintaining safety stand- ards on their farms. Constable Wilson, from the community services branch of the Goderich OPP department, point- ed out to over 100 members present that any farm accidents are investigated by the OPP. "There are three things that we must keep in mind." Mr. Wilson outlined, "One; what can hurt us, familiarity breeds contempt and when the most accidents occur." Leaving shutes open, driving up steep hills with tractors, being unaware of the gravity point when dealing with a front end loader or any tractor are all hazards. "Accidents happen to all of us." said Const. Wilson." and they happen very fast and before you know it, its all over." One very great concern is the power takeoff on tractors. If sleeves are dented or not used it is very easy to get caught in the drive shaft and be torn apart, he said. PTO means possible tragic occurance" pointed out Const. Wilson. The Farm Safety Association has implemented a roll over bar protection that is now built into new cabs, Scat belts are also being built into tractors but it is the same old question of the safety of them, pointed out Const. Wilson. Questions were raised from the members concerning slowing traffic on the highways. Const. Wilson noted that is legal for any vehicle to travel on the paved highways. It is courtesy to drive on the shoulder to let impatient vehicle drivers pass. "But only do so if you know it kNill not endanger yourself or your load," said Const. Wilson. It was also pointed out by OPP Cpl. Craig, accompanying Mr. Wilson, that if a farmer damages a shoulder of the road enough to have the department of highways out to make repairs he may be held liable for damages. The soft shoulders are not meant to be driven on, he said. An Ohio state study recorded Help for women in politics Women who are considering throwing their,hat in the ring and running for political office will have some help in the future. The help conies in the form of a handbook telling women how to lobby, how to become a political candidate and even how to be someone else's compaign manager. The step-by-step book, in the form of a kit called ,Sharing The Power, was prepared by the Federal Advisory Council on the Status of Wonien. Audrey Shepherd, the council member who headed the group which researched the guide, said she became convinced "a lot of women don't understand the political arena and don't think of entering it." Among the points outlined in the guide are how to lobby, how to write a brie f, how to deal with the print and broadcast media, how to be a candidate, how to run an election campaign and how to organize a workshop, that of 708 accidents involved with slow moving vehicles, 75% were farm vehicles, 90% occurred on dry roads in the daylight and 5O% were on level land. Of these, damages of 1.3 million were involved, Constable Wilson used the figures to illustrate the value of triangular shaped reflector signs required on all slow moving farm vehicles. Constable Wilson listed the properties of silo gas as yellow brown in colour, odour resembl- ing laundry bleach and what ever kind of insilage used and heavier than air. When mixed with water that is in our lungs and air passages it forms nitric acid and death is quick. "Even one whiff will cause a long illness and da mage the Members are still confused about the property tax chanes and fear government takeover, Regional director Merle Gunby answered questions nienibers had concerning the stand the OFA has taken. lungs for life." cautioned Const. Wilson. "Many farmers arc unaware of the threat of silo gas and it is up to all of us to educate ourselves," he said. Elected as new officers for the East Wawanosh Fcdcratin of Agriculture were: President, Walter Elliott; Vice President, Les Caldwell; Secretary Treasurer, Peter Chandler. Bill Crawford, field man for Huron conducted the elections and encouraged the involvement of women in the area, Directors are: Adrian Vos, Ed Flankin, Jim Hallahan, Barry Mason, Bob Taylor, Doug Walker, Wallace Norman and Cliff Laidlaw. Les Caldwell was elected director to the County Federation of agricul- ture. The members passed a resolut- ion to be brought before the next county meeting of the F. of A. concerning the law requiring two hookups between the vehicle and equipment being hauled asking that machinery manufactureres make second hitches mandatory on equipment made.

Blyth 7, 14 — THE BLYTH STANDARD, APRIL 19, 1978 Summer jobs on farms popular There's old refrain about the problem of keeping young people down on the farm after they've seen the city lights. But sometimes the problem is how to send people back to the city after they've spent a summer down on the farm, Len MacGregor, supervisor of .the junior agriculturalist program in Huron County, said some of the city students enjoy farm life so much, they out to stay and work on their weekends off. The Junior Agriculturalist Pro- gram, which has been operating for about six years, allows 300 students, aged 16 and 17, with no farm experience, to spend the summer working on a farm. The program, sponsored by the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food, (OMAF) will bring up to 20 city students to Huron County farms, New centre says Mr, MacGregor said students are told about the program through their high schools. Last year, 900 students across the province. applied for the 300 positions which were open. Under the program, junior agriculturalist are given a train- ing allowance of $11, with host farmers providing $5 of this amount, and room and board to the student. Mr. MacGregor is currently processing applications from area farmers interested in hosting a student for the summer months. Mr. MacGregor said he has received only six applications to date and hopes to have between 15 and 20 applications by the May 15 deadline, Mr. MacGregor said most of the applications conic from dairy farmers and most of the students apply to work on dairy operations. Energy saving makes sense This column is prepared by your Energy Conservation Centres in Lucknow and Goderich and in the corning weeks will deal with many aspects of energy use and conservation and approaches. Before we can talk about energy conservation, we have to have an understanding of what energy is and how we use it. It is easier to say how we use energy than to define it. Almost every- thing we do uses some type of energy. in fact, nothing happens in our lives, our society, or the universe without energy. The food we cat contains energy, the fuels we burn contain energy. The electricity we use is a type of energy. We are always using energy. Thera arc two "laws" which describe the behaviour of energy in the universe: The first states that the total amount of energy is cons ant. rlergy cannot be crk d or uestroycd. The energy in a gallon of gas is not lost when you burn it in a car engine. The energy has been converted into heat and forward motion and the' amount of energy in the heat aid motion is the same as was present in the gas. A change has taken place though. The usefulness of the energy has decreased. This brings us to the second law regarding energy. It states that any transformation of energy increases the disorder or randomness of the energy. Energy flows from high quality areas, such as the high temper- ature in the engine cylinder, to low quality areas, such as the exhaust. Eventually all the energy in the universe will be degraded to 0 large amount of low of the energy which is important. High quality energy can be used to do work, but once it is used its ability to do more work is lost. When we talk about saving or conserving energy we are talking about using our high quality energy resources wisely, so that we do not wastefully convert them to low grade energy.

The document was a response by Ministry staff' to a report on ways of controlling health costs. Under threat of subpoena by the Committee, Mr. 'fimbrell reluc- tantly produced two pages which had been removed from the a'iginal document and replaced with a letter from Ontario 'treasurer Darcy McKeough defending his decision to raise the 1xemiums by 37,5%, The original pages included a strong attack on the concept of health insurance premiums, terming them regressive and costly to administer, It is interesting to note that the report of a joint advisory committee on medical costs last THE BLYTH STANDARD, APRIL 19, 1978 -- 17 year said "those who arc self sustaining should pay their way" and the government should study those now exempt from paying SHIP premiums to see how many could afford to pay them. The Health Ministry's "proposed response" was that it supported the principle of means testing and endorsed the idea that those who could afford to pay for OHIP should do so. Meanwhile, physicians in Ontario will receive an average fee increase of 6-1/4% on May 1 from the provincial health insurance plan, according to Health Minister Dennis Timbrell, (Continued on Page 24) Starts Wed., April 12 to Sat.

Codco is a theatre troupe from Newfoundland which in the past has been breaking people up all over the country with their rare and unusual humour. Much to the disappointment of many the humour was not as good as expected. The series of skits could have. been applied to any culture except a "boo boo beer" skit native to Newfoundland. The comedy swung like a pendulum from raw racy humour to a few well placed lines. The most inspirational piece involved Dyan Olsen and Mary Walsh doing an old routine dressed in long coats and tics and the humour ranged from the obsolete "take any husband please" to the well quipped lines on international Women's Year. "International Women's Year is Awn the house wife steps out oI' nc kitchen and it' she sees her shadow she goes back into the kitchen for another 365 days."

The local group extends many thanks to the canvassers and those who donated, The illness you'll never see coming. Get in shape — and don't give the enemy a big target. Fitness is fun. Try some, The most remarkable thing about Codco is that they generate a very involved presence on the stage and with the aid of multiple costume changes they keep the audience completely enthralled with thc action they themselves generate. If some of the jokes were in poor taste, many were quick and true to life, Oneskit involved young pcoplc at in a local bar and their hypocrisies towards each other. The clincher occurs when one girl decides to stand up against the bully boy friend and ends up Ibllowing orders from him as usual, Although the humour was there it seemed lost on pcoplc who attended thc play.

Wheat producers re-elect Henry At the inaugural meeting of the Ontario Wheat Producers' Marketing board Robert Henry of Blyth was re-elected by his district as director. An Essex County wheat producer has been named chairman of the Ontario Wheat Producers' Marketing Board. Russell Rogers, R. R. 111, Kingsville, was elected head of the 1978 board at its inaugural meeting held in Rexdale April 6 and 7. Rogers moves up from the first vice -chairman's position which he has held for the past two years. He replaces Irving Kleiman, R R. 111, Simcoe, who has served as chairman for the same period. The 1978 board also marks the beginning of operations under a ten -man directorate reduced from the previous twelve in a recent realignment of representation. In the new structure, the number of districts was increased from nine to ten, which now forms the basis for one director for eacr district. The changes resulted it two new directors being elected tc the board by their respective districts. As the new board establishe its plans and priorities for the corning year, it faces the usua unpredictable factors of a cro' just emerging from winter• Las year the province produced ove 31 million bushels or •843) 68 tonne of winter wheat for whicl the board is responsible fo purchase and sale into the domestic and export markets, Less than two million bushels or 54,430 tonne of the 1977 croi remain unsold. Last year's Ontario winter wheat Crop is nm recorded as the largest • ever produced. This year, following an estimated 35 to 40 per cent reduction in seeded acres last fall due to wet weather, winterkill and spring flooding will further reduce the potential production. Based on seeding estimates of 385,000 acres, a crop of about 19 million bushels or 517,000 tonne was predicted earlier. Directors will be surveying the situation in the days ahead, along with laying plans for any necessary changes in marketing regulations governing purchase and sale of the 1978 crop. Export prices during the past year have depressed the overall income picture seriously for Ontario wheat producers. However, the board is hopeful that an increase in the domestic price of $3.25 to $3.55 per bushel and potential deficiency pay- ments under the federal Stabili- zation Act will raise the average to producers. The board is presently in the process of 'discussing these areas with the federal government.

Treasure her God, in your Garden of Rest, For in this world she was one of the best. —Always remembered and sadly mussed, - A Friend, 25-16-1 PATTERSON: In loving memory of our dear daughter, Gayel lvlarie, who left us suddenly one year ago, April 23, 1977, in her 18th year. 3 is for' the many Gifts of happiness we shared, A - is the Affection and the knowing that she cared, Y - is for the Yesterdays when we were all together. L- is the Love she gave us, we'll remember it forever. E- is Everlasting gifts of affection and yesterdays love. For the one God chose as an angel in His heaven up above. We loved her so very dearly, Just as we lave the rest, But we have both accepted, He only takes the best. So when God took our daughter, And we were left behind, He must have loved her deeply, For angels are hard to,find. —Sadly missed and lovingly remembered, Mom and Dad,. 25-16x1 PATTERSON: In loving memory of our dear sister, Gayle, who left us suddenly one year ago, April 23, 1977. There's a gift in life you cannot buy, That's very rare and true, it's the gift of a wonderful sister, Like the one we had in you. We often sit and think of you, And think of how you died, To think you couldn't say good- bye, Before you closed your eyes. What we would give if we could say, "Hello Gayle", in the same old way, To hear your voice to sec your smile, To sit and chat with you awhile. When we arc sad and lonely, And everything goes wrong, We seem to hear your whisper, "Cheer up and carry on". Each time we look at your picture, You seem to smile and say, "Don't cry I'm only sleeping, We'll meet again some day" Iris seems so hard to under- stand, Still somehow we must try, 'ihe saddest word we'll ever know, W►II always be "good-bye". If we wrote a million verses, it wouldn't be a start, To tell the world about you, And what is in our hearts, We never ask for miracles, But, today, just one would do, To see the front door open, And see you, Gayle walk through. So you who have a sister, Cherish her with care, For you will never know the heartaches, Till the day she isn't there. -Sadly missed and always remembered by sisters Shelley and Barb, brother, Kent. 25-16x1 HOLLAND: In loving memory of a dear husband, father and grand- father, who passed away April 20. 1973.

From the minister's study A letter for you by Rev. Cecll Wittich One of the most popular places in town each weekday is the Post Office. For those of us who live out of town, it is the mail box. Most of us, it seems, eagerly look forward to receiving out' mail each Cary, The thought of receiving a letter from someone or a paper to read and look at is perhaps what excites us. And we know that mail that is personally addressed to us is much more appealing than the mail that does not have our name on it. There is another form of mail that I would like to talk about and that is the Bible. The Bible has been called "God's love Tett i to us". It is tilled with messages from God for his people and for the world. It is also addressed to each one of us personally. We all have the Bible in our home. We do not need to go to the Post Office or the mail box to receive this interesting letter. It is for each one of us to read again rind again. And through it, God speaks to us and makes himself known, We may not understand it fully. But if we read it carefully and seek to hear what God is saying to us, He will speak to our most pressing needs, giving guidance and strength for our lives. And the more familiar we become with the Bible, the more meaningful it will become, If the Bible seems difficult or irrelevant, maybe it is because you do not know the author. When we receive mail from someone, we know that it is more interesting when you know and love the person who sent it. The story is told of a girl who read a book and found the book to be very boring. She put the book away on a back shelf and forgot about it. Some years later she met the author of the book and fell in love with him. Now, she read the book and found it to be the most interesting book she had every mac!. God is the author of the bible and you can know him by asking Jesus Christ to be your Saviour and Lord.Through Christ we arc reconciled to God (Romans 5:1) "All Scripture is inspired by God ancl is profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work," (11 Timothy 3:16-17) United Church has fun night The Outreach Unit of the U.C.W. met Tuesday of last week with Mrs. Bill Aitken giving the Study 011 an Easter Theme, prepared by Mrs. Gordon McClinchey. Mrs, Rena Watt and Mrs. Bert-Daer led in Devotions. Most of the business consisted of choosing committees to look after the soliciting and selling of Honic Baking to be heldin conjunction with the Garage Sale on May 6 at the Arena. All contributions gratefully accepted. The Explorer girls went to the Church on Wednesday after school even though there was no meeting scheduled for last week. They phoned their leader to come. Being unprepared for a meeting, she hesitated, but the girls were insistant. Michele Logue presented her with a gift, u cl speaking for all the girls said they always enjoy their meeting auul realize "if it wasn't for Mrs. Elliott, there wouldn't be any Explorers," Mrs. Elliott expressed her thanks for the gift ancl the thoughtfulness of the girls, and told then it meant a lot to know her efforts are appreci- ated. The girls plan to go bowling to bring their activities to a conclusion for this year. "Fun Night", on April 13, found about 30 people so thoroughly enjoying themselves that they voted to have another evening of games and fellowship on May 11. Thanks go to the Committee (Wightman, Chalmers Carter and Van Vliet) who engineered the group through a contest, a sing -song, a relay, scrabble, lost heir, and crokinole. If you weren't there, you missed a happy get-together than concluded with tea and cookies. On Sunday morning, the congregation listoned to a sermon on the subject of "A Promise of Peace". A beautiful bouquet of red roses, in a red vase, was on the piano. it was one of Mr. and Mrs. Miller Richmond's 40th Wedding Anniversary gifts, which they wanted everyone to share and enjoy. Rev. Wittich holds Communion at Huronview on April 18. The Bible Study group is finalizing preparations for the Crusade to be held April 30, May 1 and 2 with Rev.

Dial Blyth 523-9646. Blyth host craft show An ambitious venture into the Ontario antique and crafts market is planned. The Blyth Centre for the Arts, which sponsors profes- sional theatre during the summer months. On Saturday, May 20, the Blyth Community Centre will house more than 40 specially screened crafts aratisans and antique dealers from all over Ontario.

Sugar and Spice by Bill Smiley A birthday party?? If you were broke' and out of a job, and deeply in debt, and your family was squabbling bitterly, and your liouse was falling apart, and you had a fairly meaningless birthday coming up, what would you do? Somehow, I rather doubt that you'd plan a birthday party, to be financed on borrowed money, and invite everybody. That may be a little shaky in spots, but it's a fair analogy to the government's plan to spend 4.5 million dollars on Canada's birthday this coming July 1st. The late C.D. Howe's famous bit of arrogance in Parliament, "What's a mil- lion?", almost brought down the government of the day, But at least he was talking about something solid, a trans -Canada pipeline. But this present outfit in Ottawa is all set to fork out four and a half million green -backs for a Birthday Party. It fair boggles the mind. Talk about Nero Fiddling while Rome burned! Unemployment is the highest since the Depression. The Canadian dollar is the lowest since the 'Depression. Inflation merely stop- ped to take a deep breath before zooming off again. overnment expenditures and the national debt increase simultaneously and ominously. Quebec has cut out from the rest of Canada in every way except constitutionally, The Maritime provinces are a disaster area, economically. The prairie provinces hate the. East, and with reason. Ontario can't under- stand why those greedy Albertans want a fair price for their gas and oil, B.C. looks with an alien eye at the whole country east of the Rockies, and with a flirtatious eye south of the border. By all means, then, let us have birthday party. And why not make it a decent one? Why not spend 4.5 million, which was probably the gross national debt about 40 years ago? After all, you can't take it with you, and at the rate we're going, we're not long for this world, as er know it, so why not blow 4.5 of the taxpayer's money?.There's no question about it: a birthday party may be just the ticket to solve all the problems I've mentioned, It's a sure of becoming ancient, but 1 can't help remembering the July 1st celebrations of my boyhood. That, of course, was when the occasion was known as Dominion Day, rather than the July First Weekend, as it is now usually called. Man, they were simple times, looking back, It wasn't the occasion for a niad exodus to the beaches, with hundreds of thousands of irritable, perspiring motorists jamming the highways and polluting the atmosphere, It might surprise you to know that in those days Cow calf support price set Agriculture and Food Minister Bill Newman has announced 'that the support price for the 1978 beef calf income stabilization program will be 51.5 cents per pound -and the enrolment fee per cow $8. All cows in the producer's possession as of April 1, 1978 are eligible for enrolment. The clos- ing date for applications is May 31, 1978. Enrolment forms will be mailed this month to producers who participated in the 1977 program and additional copies will be available from the offices of the agricultural representatives. The provisisons for the 1978 provincial plan are similar to those of 1977 but it appears there will be no federal plan this year. Last year 14,400 producers enrolled nearly 350,000 cows in tlic beef calf program and receiv- ed $12.1 million in stabilization payments. An additional $1.4 million was paid by the federal plan. the average worker didn't have a car. There were no rock concerts, no clashes of cops and motor -cycle gangs, no massive asaults on the beer and liquor stores the day before, It was just a nice summer day that happened to be a holiday, For an adult, it might be the beginning of his one or two week vacation. For a kid,it was school out and a feeling that the holidays were forever. In the morning, you got up early, yearning to be out in that boundless, golden day. Maybe you went fishing. If you caught a sucker, there was a certain party who didn't give a diddle that sewage flowed into the river, and would pay a nickel, good for a bottle of pop or an ice cream cone, if you caught a pike, you had struck gold. It was good for a dime, which translated into a movie, a hamburger, or ten tailor-made Turrets, if you were one of the delinquents who smoked. About 11 a.m., there was usually some kind of ceremony down at the park, and half the town was there. Town band with a couple of rousing marches, windy speech from the mayor extolling our fair land, ceremonial planting of a tree or some such exotic symbolism, God Save the King, and home for dinner, In those days, we didn't have lunch at noon, we had dinner. Meat and taties and the works. In the afternoon, everyone went to the ball game, or went swimming, or went for a picnic, or went for a drive, or, among the elderly, went to sleep for a couple of hours on the old divan in the screened -in porch. Suddenly it was supper -time. Peas soup, green onions galore, home-made bread and flagons of cold milk to wash down the /chocolate cake or rhubarb pie. Bingo! After nine hours on the trail, you were born again and ready for another five or six exciting lours. In the eveningtherewould be a street dance - or a tombola with gambling games, or ,at the very least, a band concert.' Many a life of married misery was begun strolling around the park, arms around, while the band played Strauss waltzes. Bed time, Exhausted but too excited to sleep. Clop -clop of hooves as farmer heads home after the big day. Low voices drifting up from the street as late-nighters ambled home. Peace. Sleep. That was how much it cost and how we celebrated our national birthday day way - back -when, Couldn't Trudeau and company be satisfied to plant a tree, or even a thousand trees? Better still, how about planting Mr. Trudeau? And/or Rene Levesque? THE BLYTH STANDARD, APRIL 19, 1978 - 23 Wingham, townships put fire agreement in writing The local Rural Fire Committee has decided to put in writing an updated agreement of the rates charged by the Wingham Fire Department to participating municipalities, The committee met April 5. The cost of fighting a fire to the Wingham department has risen from $10 an hour in 1950 plus a dollar an hour for each fireman or helper battling a blaze to $100 an hour in 1978. These rates are charged to Wingham and the participating townships of Turn - berry, Morris, East Wawanosh and Howick. East Wawanosft Township Concillor Donald Dow asked that a letter be sent to clerks of all involved townships, clarifying the rates charged. Fire calls answered by the Wingham Fire Department in Morris Township in 1977 totalled $60,000 according to Wingham Fire Chief Dave Crothers who made his annual report to the committee, Fire protection in Morris is also provided by the Wingham and Blyth fire depart- ments. Mr. Crothers said the fire department has been paid $600 by Morris council for six hours of fire fighting in the township in 1977 and Morris Township's share of the fire department's deficit amounted to $3,713.37, based on an 18 per cent share of the total deficit, Mr. Crothers advised the com- mittee's township council re- presentatives that the township councils must pass a bylaw giving- him permission to make fire inspections within their mun- municipalities. He said that under the present scheme fire fighting is the only agreement and obligation the fire department has with the town- ships. Mr. Crothers said a fire department official must give a fire safety inspection to com- cunity centres, schools, senior citizens apartments, day care centres and municipal buildings, for them to start or continue operation. Township council members agreed to take the recommendat- ions back to their councils. The committee after some discussion decided to allow the Wingham Fire Department to charge for fire safety inspections up to $15 for the first hour and $7 an hour after that plus mileage. Previous fire safety inspections, mostly done by Mr, Crothers, had not been charged for, The Huron Mutual Aid As- sociation has some plans for fire prevention and protection at the International Plowing Match, Mr. Crothers told the committee. Two Wingham firemen will be at the match site at nights while the tented city is erected and will have the 1937 Ford Pumper truck and the tanker truck at the site for immediate fire protection. Mr. Crothers told the meeting there would be radio contact between firemen at the match site and the Wingham fire hall. Huronview Mr. and Mrs, Albert Vcrstecgden of Parkhill attended the Sunday Chapel Service and were present for the Dedication of the Cross they had given to Huronview and ' placed in the Chapel. Chester Archibald, Administrator, accepted the gift on behalf of the Honie and the Chaplain, Rev. McWhinnie, conducted the service. Douglas Crich was organist and accom- panied Elsie Henderson and Nelson Lear with a vocal duet. The Huronview Orchestra and Rodney Stewart provided the Old Tyme music for the program on Monday.

BRIDE ° ADGIOOM... And all newlyweds to be! Here are ways to plan that perfect wedding day . . that bright future together! The Brussels Post Week of April 17, 1978 2 — BRIDAL SECTION Camping honeymoon is popular CAMPING ON YOUR HONEYMOON can be a fun experience and easy on that newlywed budget as well, To keep it "hassle•free", however, follow the ex• perts' advice, ' Home accessories make welcome wedding gifts They're young, in love, and have everything going for them but a lot of money! Like many of today's newly- weds, they're probably es- chewing those beautiful but expensive living room and bedroom suites in favor of the new knock -down and modular units; not only are they attractive and modern, they're within young budget range. You can help the newly- weds "get it all together" by gifting them with ac- cessories to complete their contemporary decor. A hanging, industrial -type lamp will be welcome for any room in that first apart- ment or home, for instance. Colorful director's chairs are attractive additions to the living room or dining room now, can go onto the patio later on. A rattan or wicker plant stand or a ceramic tree planter can highlight that handsome fern or indoor tree they're so proud of. Plastic cubes can create a handy storage unit that the young couple can incor- porate into almost any room of their new abode. Parsons tables come in many sizes (select according to your pocketbook) and make great coffee tables, end tables, sofa tables or even dining tables. Baker's racks can ac- commodate anything from a plant collection to stereo components, are popular looks on the contemporary scene. Baskets are in — they add a touch of texture to glossy chrome and glass decors, are handy for storage. A set of attractive baskets will rate a big "thank you" from the newlyweds. While the trip to Niagara Falls and other resorts may still be considered by many to be the traditional honey- moon trip, more and more young couples are choosing a different type of honey- moon: camping. Aside from the obvious advantage of being easy on the 'pocketbook, camping appeals to newlyweds who are in love with nature, as well as each other. What better way to getaway from it all than along Oregon's rugged coast or fishing on a beautiful lake in Idaho? For- tunately, all fifty states offer camping facilities in scenic national parks and forests, as well as state sites. If you're planning on a camping honeymoon, keep these suggestions from ex- perts in mind: Plan ahead. Know the climate you are headed for and dress for it! Choose your tent wisely. It should be spacious enough to accommodate the two of you comfortably, with plenty of room for dressing and for storing supplies. Supplies should include a portable stove (cooking over a campfire can be romantic, but not dependable) a lan- tern, a cooler, sleeping bags (for added comfort include mattresses) and food staples.

Make sure boots and socks fit properly or you'll end up With blisters. If you're going up into the mountains, allow one day for every 1,000 feet of altitude to avoid altitude sickness. Watch where you' step (familiarize yourself with poison ivy's charac- teristics) and be careful with axes, knives, and fish- ing hooks, as well as around fires. Once you've decided on the area you'd like to camp in, check with your local library for listings of camp- ground facilities in that area. It's a good idea to write ahead of time for in- formation regarding reser- vations, types of facilities, and camping seasons. • You can get some in- valuable advice on what to take and what to leave behind at the store where you purchase your camping gear, and don't overlook the many books available on camping skills at your local bookstore. Last, but not least, make sure your car is in good con- dition and is properly equip- ped for the area you'll be camping in or going through.

But even underscientifically controlled conditions,the production of cultured pearls• is no easy task. Only about five of every 100 pearls harvested turn out to be of gem quality, experts say. The pearl farmer must raise approximately 10,000 oysters to wind up with enough well -matched pearls for just one 14 -inch neck- lace. Although cultured pearls have been rising in price, they are still the most affor- dable of precious gems. If the bridegroom's budget would . be strained by a strand of pearls for his bride, his favorite jeweler has pearl earrings, pendants and pins that are equally ap- propriate — and every bit as romantic! t That "something new" in the bride's wedding outfit is often a gift of pearls from the groom. Pearls are the wedding present most fre- quently chosen by the bridegroom for his bride-to- be, reports the Jewelry In- dustry Council. Nobody knows how and when this tradition got started — but history offers some fascinating clues as to why pearls and brides seem to go together like love and marriage, According to the Council, pearls have been associated with youth, beauty and romance since ancient times. The Romans thought that pearls were sacred to Diana, goddess of the moon and protectress of young girls, When a Roman girl married, she wore pearls for good luck — the more the merrier. "She was covered from head to foot with pearls and emeralds," wrote the Roman historian Pliny, describing one particularly fortunate young bride. Noble Egyptian ladies not only wore pearl jewelry to make themselves attractive to their sweethearts, but they also used powdered pearls as eye shadow for that seductive "come hither" look. If that didn't work, pulverized pearls could be — and often were — used in love potions. Ac- cording to legend, Cleopatra conquered Marc Antony by dissolving her most precious pearl in vinegar and offering him a sip of the priceless liquid. Pearls also found their way into many old-time medicines and tonics, probably because the pearl in gem lore symbolized health, vitality, and long life. All this and romance, too — what more could any bride ask from a gem? Nothing more except beauty, and pearls shine in that department also. Their soft luster is flattering to every woman, and their low- keyed elegance never goes out of style. They can be worn at any time of day, with almost any outfit, tailored or dressy. Although pearls are classified as precious stones, they are really not stones at shower her with kitchen gi Your best friend is getting married and you want to give a bridal shower to re- flect your special friendship — a unique party different from others she might be given, but practical, too. Why not consider a kitchen shower? Gifts are simple, useful, and generally inexpensive. First kitchen items most often include: cutting board, utility knife, paring knife, and a set of hanging utensils, You'll also want to in- clude a basic set of cooking and baking pans. Experts recommend as a general set a nine -inch skillet, a one quart saucepan, and a three - quart covered casserole. For "wash day", deter- gent, bar soap, and small items placed in a laundry basket make a most useful and imaginative gift. A large, inverted, paper umbrella filled with decora- tive small accessories is a welcome present for any bride. Wrap rubber scraper, strainer, grater, ladle, pan- cake turner, measuring cups, and similar articles in- dividually in decorative paper before placing in the umbrella for a "shower of good wishes" and a "colored rainbow of surprises". Assorted kitchen gadgets can be combined to compli- ment a "Broom Doll" your friend will love!

That's one of the toughest areas of long-range plan- ning for partners who have careers rather than just jobs, It affects where you live, what you do. Probably the best way to deal with the problem is for both of you to make up in- dividual career plans, then come together and decide which parts of each plan can work for both of you. Perhaps one person's career can take precedence over the other's at certain points in your relationship. Another of the long-range bones of contention is whether or not to have chil- dren, Both working partners have to sit down and decide whether they are willing to take time off from their careers at various stages to deal with the raising of chil- dren.

In other words, every homemaker has a choice these days: to spend time 'in the kitchen scouring and scrubbing after every meal - just as her mother did when she married - or to use pans that simply don't require all that work.

Or if y6u became married, or reconciled a marriage, or lost your spouse in death, there are other tax implications. First, if the divorce or separation occurred during the year, you are allowed to claim either the payments General financial advice by members of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Ontario. you made to your spouse as a tax deductible expense, or the exemptions you might otherwise have been entitled to had the separ- tion or divorce not taken place. These would include the standard deductions for the spouse and the children of the marriage who remain the custody of that spouse. Payments or deductions, you choose the method that is most beneficial to you. But, this option is only available in the year of divorfe or separation. In the future, only the alimony or separation payments would be deductible. The spouse receiving the alimony or separation allowance must include all such receipts in income regardless of the tax treatment elected by the paying taxpayer. If you became reconciled in 1977, your spouse's income for the entire year must be considered in determining whether he or How wedding customs ,began, Evil Spirits were once dis- persed from a wedding site by loud shouts and the firing of guns. Today, this tradition con- tinues in the form of tying old shoes and tin cans to the back of bridal cars. We can thank the Saracens for the custom of the bridal bouquet. Saracen brides carried sprigs of orange blossoms to sym- bolize fertility at first, then happiness and good fortune. The Crusaders in turn brought the custom to Europe, where it was gradually adopted. 0,41) A recent survey indicates the "Prince Charming" myth is alive and well and most young girls still fan- tasize about finding a hus- band and being a wife and mother for the greater part of their lives. In reality, statistics in- dicate in a group of ten women: one will remain single, one will be a .widow at age fifty, three will be divorced and 6 will work outside the home for ap- proximately thirty years. she can be claimed as a dependent. In these cir- cumstances, alimony or separation payments made in the year are ignored for income tax purposes by both the payor and recipient. If a taxpayer was married for any part of the year, he or she may claim the married exemption for the whole year subject to the spouse's income. But, it's only income received while married which affects the exemption. Accordingly, a person who got married in December, or whose spouse died in January, might well be eligible for a full married exemption claim. If your marital status changed at all during 1977, you should attach a note to your return giving the date of the change. Remember, too, that if you were not legally married in 1977 you are not entitled to any exempt- ion in respect to your spouse. Common-law relationships are not recognized for this pur- pose. You would, however, be entitled to the married equivalent exemption if you supported a dependent related to you and who lived with you •• for example, your child from a common-law relationship. A dependent whose address while attending school differed from yours will still be considered to live with you if, in fact, he or he did live with you during the non -school portion of the year.

There's a wealth of choices for every taste. Shopping is easier than itused to be, with new take-home stores and new, faster delivery systems. And, the number one deco- rating trend is certainly a good omen for romance, because everything's coming up roses .. • and mums .. . and •geraniums .. , and every other kind of flower. In short, flowers are in — flowered chintz, rose - splashed rugs, flowered wallcoverings like those that gave such charm to the houses of romantic eras past. And for today's first home, they provide warmth and softness — and how bet- ter to feather a nest? For the novice decorator, the real question is, how to make the most of the possibilities of this new look. Since the makers of Wall -Tex wallcoverings have just introduced a new collection called Open House, that's rich in flower patterns, we asked Design Director Robert Cappel for some tips: • Unless you're very sure of yourself, don't mix two important flower patterns in a room. If you choose a Flowers are "in" decor flowered wallcovering, team it with fabrics that have little or no pattern such as stripes or small checks. • To get the lush look of mixed patterns, do it with throw cushions. Make them from a variety of ap- pealing remnants. Mix Targe and small patterns, mix colors, too — and in- clude some colors that match those in your wall - covering. • For a small room, choose fabrics or wallcoverings that have a relatively small pattern on a white or light-colored back- ground. • If you're furnishing on a budget, you can get a lot of decorating mileage by teaming inexpensive fur- niture, like wicker, or painted wood, with a striking, flowered wall - covering. The result can be a fresh -as -a -garden look — and a room that's a delight to be in. • You can also get a lot of mileage from a strong, bold pattern, used in small areas, Make a long skirt for an end table, or cover just one wall of a room. • Check out ideas in maga- zines and decorating books — and don't over- look one other source of good ideas: the sample books in the wallcovering store. The pictures can give you an idea of how a pattern will look on your walls — and, with some of the major national brands, you can get over- night delivery. • Decorating, like every- thing else in life, needs the spice of variety. So a word to the wise: don't let ,BRIDAL SECTION — 7 your flower bower over- power! If you use a flower theme in one room, use a plaid, a check or some- thing crisp and geometric in the next.

There's more than ro- mance behind a young girl's decision to start collecting sterling flatware the minute she's certain of the one and only in her life. Because sterling is so luxurious and traditionally a bridal gift, people seem to regard its purchase as an extravagance rather than a practical in- vestment but, trading paper dollars for sterling table - wares is a very sound transaction! By selecting a sterling pattern well in advance of the wedding, and by making use of the gift registry ser- vice at one of the better known fine stores, your preferences are known and duplications avoided. By making the most of every occasion from birth- days to graduation, Christ- mas, and, of course, bridal showers, sterling service can be completed in a shorter span of time. Sterling, too, is so elegant that the gift of even a single teaspoon is a gift to treasure forever. In fact, it's far bet- ter to receive one piece of sterling in the pattern of Choose your your choice than be given an expensive lamp or vase not of your taste and have it hid- den in a storage area for- ever! This gleaming precious metal is still the prestigious gift it was. Today, sterling flatware is considered the traditional gift to the bride from her parents. Yellow was favourite brides' color Yellow was the most pop- ular of bridal colors in 18th century America, followed by blue, traditionally the color of the Virgin's robe, Lilac, a flowered color, ranked as third most popular.

As you pore over travel folders and listen to sugges- tions from friends and parents, keep in mind that your honeymoon should be well within your budget. Marriage counselors point out that a too -costly honey- moon can become a burden instead of a pleasure. But, offer unexpected beauty, along with more time to vacation because of less traveling. New Mexico, for in- stance, can seem a place out of time, with its turquoise - blue skies, stark mesas, towering mountains, and centuries-old pueblos. You can view the magnificent formations of Carlsbad Caverns, fish the New Mexi- can rivers,. or watch the sun- ' set turn the desert into a don't be someone's house - guest in order to save money, either, Psychologists advise that the honeymoon period should be a time for the newlyweds to be alone together, without the stress of outside relationships. Keep your plans simple .. your honeymoon should be a time of relaxation, with a minimum of time schedules. Don't overlook nearby spots in planning your honeymoon ... they often "Land of Enchantment" .. . New Mexico offers a variety of experiences Canada offers beautiful countryside and the excitement of its big cities, without the hassle of passports or visas. Yet you can enjoy the French am- bience — including cuisine ...and language — in Quebec, or get a taste of what British cities are like by visiting Ot- tawa and Vancouver. The Pocono Mountains of northeastern Pennsylvania are known as "honeymoon country" and with good reason. The mountains with their rippling streams and waterfalls, lovely meadows and quaint farms make this area a perfect setting for romance. In addition, there's swimming, boating, golfing and tennis for out- door enthusiasts, as well as skiing in the winter season. In the Deep South, Georgia offers something for every honeymoon cou- ple: sandy beaches, antebel- lum mansions, and the ex- citement of Atlanta. Its beautiful coastal area boasts the .Golden Isles, while its towns can be as romantic and charming as Savannah or as ultramodern and energetic as Atlanta. The Appalachian foothills and the Okefenokee swamps il- lustrate the wide range of scenic attractions offered by this southern state. In the Far West, South- ern California offers a kaleidoscope of experiences for visitors. Where else, but in Southern California, can you go surfing or scuba div- ing in the morning, ride a dune buggy or snow ski in the afternoon and enjoy a great theatrical premiere in the evening! It used to be that if you enjoyed live theatre, you had to go to New York to see a Broad- way or off-Broadway pro- duction. Now Southern California offers drama, musicals and comedy pro- ductions that match or surpass anything in the East. All this and the marvelous year-round climate that natives hoast about! Wherever you do ul- timately decide to spend your honeymoon, remember to travel lightly. Lugging too many pieces of luggage around can put a damper on anyone's high spirits.

In that era, it was the .custom that wedding guests brought small cakes for the couple and piled them upin the cen- ter of the table. The bride and groom were supposed to kiss over the cakes without knocking the pile over. One day, a traveling baker came up with the idea of icing all the cakes to- gether into one large cake to make the couple's kiss easier. That event marked the start of today's wedding cake!

Other couples have married on horseback, (with the entire bridal party on horseback) aboard a boat, or even in a submarine. (The groom was a naval officer.) In the Ozarks of Mis- souri, a lovely cavern has become so popular as a wed- ding site that it is now known as "The Bridal Cave." Most young couples wanting to get away from the stiff formality of church or chapel weddings will probably choose to be married in the family gar- den, however. Aside from the sentimental attraction of a place you know and love, the family garden can pro- vide a lovely setting for the wedding ceremony, with its flowers, trees and grass. If a young couple should decide on a public park for their wedding rites, it would be advisable to check with the proper authorities first. In some cities, getting mar- ried in the park has become so popular, you have to make a reservation! With today's emphasis on the natural, more and more invitations will probably be inviting friends and families to share the joy of Jane and John's wedding day ... un- der the old oak tree in the meadow.

Cape Cod win- dows and brass door knock- ers? But, are you jolted out of such reveries with the words, "How can we afford it?" Dreams of home owner- ship can become a reality for today's newlywed couple, with a little financial plan- ning and a lot of elbow grease. As inflation spirals up- ward, newlyweds and everyone else — are rede- signing their personal finances and investments to help guarantee a solid finan- cial future. One way is by in- vesting during the first year of marriage in a small, modestly -priced older home that needs fixing up, accord- ing to real estate experts from RELO, a not-for- profit nationwide network of relocation specialists. They say that young couples should depart from the tradition of renting until they've saved enough for the down payment on their dream house. In these times, inflation will increase the re- quired down payment by 25 percent in the next five years. Instead, newlyweds are advised to look for a "start- er" home in a well-estab- lished neighborhood; an in- vestment which should ap- preciate at least as quickly as inflation. Young home owners also reduce taxes through inter- est payments on home mort- gages. The mortgage pay- ments, at the top of any family's budget, are in effect a forced -savings plan as the couple builds up equity in a new home. But, newlyweds who post- pone buying their first home collect rent receipts rather than build equity. As property values increase, renters don't profit from rising home prices, and they cannot take advantage of many tax deductions avail- able to home owners. The critical point is to buy that first home as early as possible, the experts empha- size. It may be necessary for a newlywed couple to ar- range financing with a ten or even five percent down pay- ment, rather than the com- mon twenty percent. Yet, despite the extra costs, higher interest rates and additional service charges of mortgages with lower down payments, early home purchase decisions help newlyweds hedge against inflation. It is the first step in the youthful pair's road to a strong finan- cial position. What other strategies should a young married couple consider? The real es- tate experts offer the follow- ing tips: • DO look for modestly priced homes in good neighborhoods. These houses may have only two bedrooms and old- fashioned kitchens and baths, but they can be im- proved to increase resale value. ▪ DON'T get in over your head. Be sure you aren't caught with a home that needs a new plumbing sys- tem, furnace, roof or elec- trical wiring. • DO keep good records and receipts for all your home's costs. Virtually any expense that increases the value of your home and is passed along to a new owner can be deduct- ed from your profits on resale to reduce taxes. Shutters, drapes, carpets, dishwashers and re- modeled bathrooms are all examples of items that can be deducted if sup- ported by records, t Wedding costs: who pays them? Tradition has it that wed- ding expenses are shared, among the bride, the groom, and the bride's family. Who i pays for what? The groom's wedding ring and wedding gift are the • bride's responsibility, in ad -1 dition to the presents for her r attendants, accommoda- tions for out-of-town at- tendants, her personal sta-1 tionery and her medical exam. The groom pays for the marriage license, his medi- cal exam, the bride's wed- ding and engagement bou- quets and going -away cor- sage, wedding party bouton- nieres, flowers for both mothers, gloves, ascots or ties for the men in the wed- ding, gifts and accommoda- tions for the best man and ushers, the fee for the clergyman and the wedding trip. The bride's family shoul- ders many of the costs, in- cluding the bride's wedding attire and trousseau, invita- tions and announcements, photographs, church rental fee, the costs of the organist; soloist and sexton, aisle car- peting, flowers for the church, the bridesmaids' bouquets and luncheon, the entire cost of the reception, and transportation for the bridal party from house to church and reception. 1 You Chose The The Right Guy, Together You Chose The Perfect Date.
