(Standard Photo) Australian visitor Enjoys Ontario [By Rhea Hamilton] For some farmers good heavy spring rain in the middle of planting can be very costly waste of time, but for one farmer the break offers some rewards. Janes Kirkpatrick is a young Australian farmer visiting in Ontario for three months on a Junior ` Farmers exchange program, The break from farm work has allowed him to see some ofthe other sights around Ontario without sacrificing planting time with his hosts here. James farms about 2,100 acres with his dad. They raise 7'/2 thousand head of sheep for their wool. Australia is presently going into the winter season and the crops have been cut back so that James' absence will not be felt on the farm. There is lots to compare between Australia and Canada. "The Australian dollar is worth less in comparison to the Canadian dollar' commented James, "But the standard of living is much the same." There are as many strikes in Australia as here, he says. "Western countries people work on the scheme "If I don't. have to work why should I? principle" said James. "This leads to the strike situation Unemployment of young people is just as high at home as here in Canada, he says. In Australia gas is much cheaper at 80c per gallon. Most cars driven are 4 or 6 cylinder, "I noticed a lot of large cars in Toronto when I arrived" said James "but in the rural area the smaller cars have taken over." The recent display of Northern Lights was a special sight for James. "We have Southern lights but they are not near as bright as the Northern Lights that you have here" he says, The best crop to grow in the southern tip of Australia where James lives is sheep. Two acres of land will support either a cow and calf or eight head of sheep. There is more money presently in the wool production. "We send cheap beef to Canada, maybe that's what is in those MacDonald burgers" laughed James. For all the young farmers fed up with land prices, maybe Australia is the place to consider. Land is still cheap in comparison with here in Canada. In Australia land goes for $220 per acre. James is sponsored by one of the largest co-operatives in Australia. Murray Goulbarn Co - Operative Co. Ltd. has 5,000 members and handles 73% of the dairy production in the south eastern state of Victoria. In return for the sponsorship James sends reports back on everything he sees especially the dairy angle. James went to view the judging at the OntarioSpring Dairy Holstein Show and saw the best Ontario has to offer, "There was a lot of money in that pavilion that day", commented James. The cattle are bigger here, with a larger frame and produce more mild milk; he says. "Canadian cattle compete with the best in the world for recognition". James has attended all the Junior farmer meetings herp. during his stay. "Our organization is called Young Farmers but it all means the same. Here. the emphasis is on sports as well as farming but back hone we have speakers at our meetings and have more meetings more often." James has attended county meetings, club meetings and the the provincial directors' meeting last month in Toronto. For any one planning to visit Australia for any length of time James mentioned a few slang terms that the Aussies use. Where we say wow or something to that effect, there they say "Hooley Dooley". Girls are known as sheilas or birds and boys or guys are called blokes or fellas. Watch when you ask for a sweater; they are called jumpers (Continued on Page 5) Young minister Travels widely By Debbie Panney if you stereotype minsitcrs as being old, gray-haired or balding and sometimes lacking in a sense_ of humour, a meeting with Reverend Dan Sargent of Blyth would quickly dispel any such illusions. He's young --just about 29 --he's good looking and quick witted. As minister for four congregations of Anglican churches at Brussels, Blyth, Belgrave and Auhur•nhe's also a very busy man. l3orn in Midland, Ontario, he's married and has two children. He got his 13;achclor of Aitts Degree from Western University and his Master of Divinity Degree front Huron College. Originally scheduled to go to the Diocese in Moosonee he had so much trouble with the Cree language he went in May of 1974 to the Yukon instead where he says most of the natives, except for the very old, spoke English. It was a sad little church he ha up there in Tcslin (which means Long Waters) he said, recalling that for the first four Sundays he was there., only four people showed up. After six months attendance increased to 35 and 40 from a community of about 200. Asked about some of the differences in the Yukon compared to where he is living now, Mr. Sargent said, "cold toilet scats in the outhouses." Another difference he noted was the local delicacy --moose brain which had been smoking in the stove pipes for about three weeks. Mr. Sargent says he always found an excuse for not staying for supper when that item was on the menu. Mr, Sargent at that time also had another parish at Aitlin in British Columbia, The name Atlin means Big Waters. The two congregations were 125 miles apart. From Wednesday through to Sunday morning he would be at • Tcslin and then on Sunday he would drive back to Kt lin where he stayed until Wednesday. One thing he did enjoy about the two communities was the mixing of all denominations, Since the Anglican Church was the only non -Roman Catholic Church there, his .congregation included members of other denominations as well. it was difficult when he came back south just being an Anglican Minister again, he said. "It's just living proof that we don't need all the denominations we've got. Most of thetit are based on tradition, rather than Rev. Dan Sargent logic and truth," he said. The Anglican rectory in Tcslin was three forestry shacks built together. Twenty years ago they ' said it was just to be a temporary situation but Mr. Sargent said it's still that way today and is likely to remain so. Atlin however, was a different situation. It used to be called Discovery because it's one of the towns where gold was found during the gold rush clays. At that, time, it was a town of 10,000 people but it now has a population of about 250. The Anglican minister describes the houses there as having ceilings 10 feet high -- southern style hajuses which were (Continued on Page 5) kS, REPLACING THE OLD WITH THE NEW — Village workers from .Blyth were out on Wednesday replacing a leaky hydrant beside the senior citizens' apartment building with a new one.

All over the world governments are asking people to separate their garbage and be prepared to keep this practise up in order to make use of our over abundance of waste, I am sure that many of us are willing to separate garbage which takes little effort. But the problem arises of what to so with the piles of separated garbage that we manage to keep in neat containers. Blyth and area including Iondesboro can save newspapers in order to have it recycled to raise funds for worthy causes. The real clincher to the situation comes when the pickups have been made and the Lions have accumulated over 10 ton of newsprint now Lind they have no market to take it to, Now doesn't this situation strike you as a wee bit silly? Such an advanced country as ours can be finicky about pollution and conserving energy and yet when citizens unite and try to do something about the situation there is no where for the,paper collection to be processeand recycled. The federal government is publishing a monthly letter called Recoup. This handy little letter is to let everyone know about how the recycling situation in Canada is doing and how we compare with our neighbours' in the south. If this timely little letter would let us all know who to contact for pickups of refuse (sorted that is) maybe it would be of some value to the rest of us. Here are some figures. Lets see It's time to what you think of first? White envelope cuttings (pure white envelopes trimmings, no ink) brings in Ontario $200 per ton; File folder stock, (regular light brown file folders) will bring $120; Facial tissue boxes or shoe boxes are classed as boxboard cuttings and will bring a price of $40 per ton in Ontario, In Quebec the prices vary both up and down. The most frustrating thing about this chart, which also lists numerous classifications, is that with all the money that can be recovered from recycling paper products, no place is listed to contact for pickups or deliveries, Maybe the government is teasing tilling you what you can have if you save but neglecting to tell 113w to get the reward for being such a good conserver. Recycling does save energy, In a study conducted by the Waste Management Branch, Environ- ment Canada, in November of 1976, it was discovered that in newsprint alone we would save 3.8 x 10 BTU (6) which is a lot of energy, Even with tissue and sanitary paper, if 100% recycled we would save 1.4 BTU 1.4 x 10 BTU (6). There is a conference coming up in early June which entails planning a provincial pickup of newsprint from various com- munities who have collected and sorted all in the name of recycling. I will keep you posted of anyresults of this conference. ****** Many times we come upon the situation where the middle man appears to be skimming the cream off the crop. Here is a neat little item that may make your blood boil. Loblaws has been deducting two percent from the cheques it issues to pay growers, shippers Spring clean your freezer As 'spring and summer fruits and vegetables become available, many people will be freezing the fresh produce so that they can enjoy it during the summer months and, later in the year. Before adding this year's pro- duce to the freezer, the food specialists at the Ontario Food Council, Ministry of Agriculture and Food, suggest spring clean- ing the freezer's present con- tents. Use the older packages soon and make sure nothing has been forgotten. When cleaning out the freezer for the new season, work quickly. Have a paper and pencil ready to mark down the name, amount and date of each item. Reload the freezer placing similar foods together, for example, group the fruits, vegetables, and meats, I.t's a smart idea to keep an inventory sheet of the freezer's contents. Without even opening the freezer, this list indicates the amounts of the various foods and the date that each was packaged. Use the older foods first to keep the contents rotating as they should, As you remove foods from the freezer, cross them off the list, As you freeze new foods, add them to the list. You'll always know exactly what you have. It's efficient, yet very easyl Before you start to freeze this season's produce, request some useful information on preparing, packaging, thawing, cooking and storing fruits, vegetables and other foods, Order the free booklet "Frozen Foods" from infornmation Branch, Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food, Legislative Buildings, Queen's Park, Toronto, M7A IAS. and packer -shippers for Ontario p roducc, No explanation was given on the cheque for the deduction. Inblaws buyers have been charging this fee on behalf of the chain over the lasts year. The Ontario Fruit and Vegetable Growers Association has been aware that the c6scounting was going on. It seems that this practise is not illegal and Loblaws is not the only chain discounting. Dominion is justs launching its own. program,.. They are asking suppliers to sign a form giving it authority to deduct two per cent from the purchase price of Ontario Produce for "earned cost reductdion", whatever that is. One of the explanations growers have been given for these funds is taht they will be put into the chains advertising and promotion campaigns. How many of you business people would stand for such a sitaution? What is worse, the grower will never know if that money isspent, and if it is, how is it spent. There is already a shared -cost program called fresh For Flavour Foundation. Growers pay into this fund through tax dollars.$ If the growers are paying now you can bet we the consumers will be paying in the end.

Registration Number 1319 What's obscene? The following excerpt illustrates the obscenety problem that has appeared again in Huron County. Steinbeck is a Nobel prize winning writer. Of Mice and Men, the book that was criticized, is about having compassion for your fellow men. It describes how someone who is handicapped is hounded by "respectable" and hypocritical people. Anyone who reads Of Mice and Men and sees only dirty words has some pretty heavy blinkers on. The Diviners by Margaret Laurence has threads of the same theme. It's about a woman who grows up as an outcast, partly because her guardian is the keeper of the dump, and it follows, keeper of a lot of dark secrets in a small Canadian town. It's a wonderful novel full of hope. It chronicles the power of human beings to triumph over prejudice, suspicion and hard childhood to become, not without struggle and pain, loving, compassionate and contributing people. Again the book's point is not to advocate swearing and sex. They are mentioned in passing as part of the human condition. All of us who are not buried in sand above the ears have to admit that they are that. Catcher in the Rye by Salinger is sort of a smart-aleckey book. But it's important because it's one of the first expressing the discontent and rebellion of the young against authority and their elders. Salinger's confused hero is searching for answers, something many teenagers go through and to focus on the book's swear words is to miss its point. Catcher in the Rye speaks to kids, but that doesn't mean they're going to imitate its hero. A teacher in a classroom would probably help students see that the hero's confusion is pretty self-indulgent. But we honestly wonder whether the well intentioned people who criticize these books have read them in their entirety. Many, many books, including the Bible, could be criticized if only the most controversial parts were read, and the message of the whole ignored. Someone once said that the really dirty words in the English language are not our common swear words. They are words like "hate", , "kill", "Nigger", ''Kike", "Wop", ''Paki" and so on. if we're concerned about swear ing and sex in school literature, are we equally concerned about racism, violence on tv and on the street and "Paki" and "Newfie" jokes? Sex and swearing are part of life and the schools would be wrong to ignore them in hope .that they'll go away. We don't think they can be accused of promoting them. Let's see a healthy concern about what our kids are being taught in school. Let's • insist that they be taught to respect fellow human beings of every colour and nationality and both sexes. Let's have them learn that there are better solutions to life's problems than violence and irresponsibility. And then, let's give them credit for understanding that books that contain swearing and sex are not advocating lifestyle of perversion. Above all, let's rememb er that standards of right and wrong and concern for other people, taught at home, provide a vital foundation so that our kids can weigh and judge what they learn in school for themselves, (Huron Expositor Aprill77) Stained glass at the craft show Behind the8ceneg By Keith Roulston We're gardening What is it about Canadians and gardens? Give people 10 square feet of earth and chances arc they'll be mucking about in it as soon as the snow melts off, dreaming of the hundreds of vegetables they'll be eating when the warm weather conies. It's really amusing to watch people in the city who barely have enough backyard to turn around in, digging and plowing to put in a few vegetables. One package ' of lettuce seed contains enough to sew the backyard in lettuce three times over, but they buy seventeen varieties of vegetable seeds plus a few boxes of tomatoes and cabbages. In the cities they've even conk up with the ultimate solution to the problem of over- crowding: highrise gardens. All those apartment buildings with the cement slab balconies which have just enough room to lie down on to get a sun tan start sprouting greenery this time of the year. To somebody %%'Iio's grown up on the land, it seems like the ultimate in urban idiocy to sec little planters with vegetables 20 stories in the sair, but then ifyou were forced to live in such a building for very long, you'd likely be seized with the urge for something natural around too. We in small town Ontario are much more sane, of course. We have lar, ge backyards so we can have a garden and still have a little grass too. We plant huge gardens. then have so much produce we want to give some away but all our neighbours have huge gardens too and they're trying to give their excess to you. If you're new in town and don't have a garden or a friend or neighbour who has one, you may not be able to get fresh vegetables even though they're all around you because the local grocery stores hardly stock any. Who's going to buy fresh vegetables that just spent two days being trucked from somewhere else in Ontario when they have fresh, picked -just - a -minute -ago vegetables from their own back yard? So for the person without a garden, it's like the shipwrecked sailor with water all around but not a drop that can be drunk. Pm just as crazy about gardens as anybody else. l get the seed catalogue out about the time the first bad storm hits in January and write out niy order for the spring. I've taken to starting my own seeds indoors in the last couple of years. Usually by the time it comes to planting the kids or the cats have knocked the seedlings off the window sill several tines and the plants look like something Hurricane nuts Hazel left behind. I get enthusaiastic in the first warm May evenings(and there haven't been many) and go out to work up the garden. Each year my ideas seem to get a little more ambitious than the last. The size of the garden seems to get larger by the time spring rolls around each year. It's a dangerous trend at our place because we've got three and a half acres. Somehow, though, the enthusiasm seems to wane shortly after the seeds break through the ground. For one thing, by the time the seeds sprout, several hundred weeds have already made their appearance. Why is it that weed seeds always seem to germinate twice as fast as the seeds you want to come up? By amid June when the heat comes on, it always semis there are so many other important things to do that there isn't time to work in the garden; things like sitting. in the shade or reading a book. By early July my dreams of great abundance of produce have produced only great abundance of weeds. By August I've shrugged my shoulders and decided that next year 1 really can't let myself get so far behind. As for this year, ah well, it tVas a nice idea. Few people are as bad as me when' it comes to taking care of a garden of course, but it still seems to be a question of what logical reason we all decide we simply must have a garden. M any will argue taht they have to plant a garden to fight food prices. i challenge anyone to prove that their garden actually saves then enough to be worthwhile,First of all, there's the matter of time we spend. Then there's the cost of seed and fertilizer and then there are the tools. Now we could get along with a shovel, hue and rake but 1 haven't seen many who do, Most people at least have a rototiller and many have those cute little garden tractors that cost what a good farm used to sell for a generation or so ago. From a strictly economic standpoint, a garden makes fulltime farming look like a blue chip investment. Yet we go on, breaking up little patches of earth to plant a few seeds anrdream of coming crops. It's part of the Canadian psyche, I think. We niay be generations away from the farm but we still have the utrge, deep within us to work the soil, plant crops and harvest. It may not make much sense, but I think we're better off for it. Better to take out your frustration on a weed than a neighbour. Young minister (Continued from Page 1) completely inappropriate for the north. There was no indoor plumbing in the minister's house at Te.slin because he didn't live there full time. Mr. Sargent says they carried their water from Atlin to 'feslin in the winter and in the summer trucks came by and filled up a barrel for them. After two 'ears he moved on to Cassia'• an asbestos mining town in northern British Columbia, a city which has the highest paid workers per capita in North America. A person sweeping floe's would get paid $8.60 an hour and the minister was the lowest paid person in the community. The church in Cassiar was also a community church with all denominations joining together. In the Yukon, Mr, S argent says the weather ranged in the 80's from 80 below to 80 above. 1 -le said the worst cold they ever felt was 87 below. On that particular . clay when he rung the bell in the church, the clamper snapped off and fell out. But the hardest part to get used to was the darkness in the winter. It seemed that with the dark n':ss at the best of times you would get some sunlight from maybe 10 to 2. "At C assiar we didn't even see the sun from late November until early February," he said, This kind o1' thing of course gets to some people Mr, Sargent cited an example of a person they knew who lived in Old Crow which was 500 miles from White- horse, the nearest city. The person ordered a pizza from Whitehorse and had it flown up. That pizza probably cost $400 or $500 but the person who ordered it probably felt it was worthwhile just to know that the world was still there and he could still order a pizza. The Sargents were in Cassiar just 0 little over a year and .they had just given their year's notice since they had committed them- selves to staying five years in the Yukon when Huron selected them and the Bishop gave permission to go. "Blyth needed me," Rev. Sargent says jokingly. At the moment, R ev. Sargent docs three services a Sunday with Belgrave and Abuurn alternating Sundays. He docs services at 9:45, 11:30 and 1:30. In addition he has patients to visit in Goderich, Wingham, Seaforth and Clinton Hospitals and some- times Listowel Hosptial as well. But he docs get some help from the members of his congregations who volunteer to go to Huronview and other senior citizens nursing homes. - "People pitch in and assess the work to be done. In many ways it is beneficial to the congregation to see the need and to get out and help," Mr. Sargent commented. This year is centennial year for Trinity Anglican Church in Blyth and some renovating of the church is going on. The congre- gation plans to paint all the woodwork outside and do some Major renovations to the walls inside.

(Standard Photo) Report from Queen's Park Pension debt over $1 billion By Murray Gaunt The Ontario Government's $1 billion debt to the leachers' pension funds has grown by an extra $243 million this year, according to Education Minister Tom Wells. Higher teachers' salaries and inflation have caused the extra debt, according to Mr. Wells, The debt to the Teachers' Superannuation Fund is now $1.59 billion. The Government pays off the extra debt every three years by law, but Mr. Wells would like to pay off the extra debt every year. Still wit'r) education, the Ontario Ministry of Education will spend almost $3 million this year on professional development for teachers, A Standard Classified will pay you dividends. Have you tried one? Dial 523-9646. About 15,000 of Ontario's 96,000 elementary and high school teachers will benefit from the Ministry grants. About $200,000 will be spent on teacher exchange programs, which the Ministry considers as "low cost professional develop- ment" that is of prime importance in boosting teacher morale, since mobility has all but disappeared. M.P.P.'s were upset and offended this week when Dr. Robert Jackson, who is a one-man Royal Commission studying declining school enrolment in Ontario, commented that women should have more babies, and that Canada's founding racial groups shoudl have test tube babies, if necessary, to make sure they do not disappear through "racial suicide". Members called his.ideas silly, senile, addlebrained, and racist. However, Mr. Wells refused to lire Dr. Jackson from his $150 a clay job, and that decision was confirmed by the Social Develop- ment Conimittce before whom Dr.Jackson appeared to explain his remarks. • 'i'hc Commission's work has cost $490,000 so far. Aside from his comments about fertility and race, Dr. Jackson did identify a world-wide problem. The birth rate in every industri- alized country in the world has dropped below the replacement level. Quite simply, more people are dying than are being born, and populations arc falling. For instance, in Britain the population is, dropping by 500 per day. Falling populations don't just mean fewer schools and shrinking workforces, but they also mean a huge burden of retired people from the older, bigger population who have to be supported by a smaller working population. The Ontario Government has announced a $250,000 campaign to make Ontarians more aware of the value of tourism and improving hospitality traits. About twenty-one million U.S. tourists spent $743 million in Ontario in 1976. THE ANGLICAN CHURCH Rev. Daniel Sargent Trinity Church, Blyth, - 9:45 A.M. Sunday School 9:45 A.M. .

It was the student's graduating year. She still didn't have any experience—but this time she was looking for that all-important, first permanent job. The situation above happens n1:►ny .links ro 1houSalndS of students in Ontario. Employers want people with experience but how can you get experience Mthoi.t a job? And what il' you're not a student anymore, but an ;adult entering the work force tiller spending several years in an educational institution? The Ontario Career Action Plan (OCAP) offers young people between 16 and 24, regardless of their educational background, and employers a chance to get to know each other and provide mutual benefits. For youth, OC'AP metals on- the-job experience and the oppor- tunity to learn marketable skills \\filch are essential in gaining employment in business or industry.

Huronview residents take spring drive Nine residents accepted the invitation to attend the dress rehearsal of the program "Vacation Canada" at the Victoria Public School, Godcrich, on Monday afternoon. This was a musical program and was greatly appreciated by the residents. The annual spring drive, which is slxmsored by the Exeter United Church, took place on Monday evening. Forty members of the congregation provided ears but, due to the inclement weather, the interest at the Home was disappointing, The residents who took advantage of the drive enjoyed it very much and we hope that another year the weatherman will he more co-operative.

Clip and save .Writing for your weekly paper It is always with delight that editors of weeklies look to the readers for information of goings on in the community. Many people voluntarily do write ups of events and meetings to have run in the paper and your weekly paper is grateful to them. But many call the papa', disappointed when the news item submitted is not printed exactly as originally written. Here are a few tips to remember \Olen writing copy for this paper: When you report your meeting for the paper try to bear in mind that readers want to read an objective report of what happened whether it was at the last Ladies Aid meeting or at the big fire, There's no place for opinion in a news' story. Avoid using "we. , our, and I" unless the news is in the forst of a letter to the editor or an editorial continent. , Many writeups that come into the news office concern meetings where a hymn and prayer are sung. The problem that arises here is that people who attended the meeting already know the hymn title and the prayer recited. Those who did not go, are not interested in those details --a newspaper can't print stories that are like minutes of a sleeting, Therefore that detail is likely to be cut out of the meeting report. What is important is that maybe your group donated some money to a worthy cause. Now that is important to the com- munity, and to the general reader. The readers know what groups you support and in turn support you for your efforts. Every group hears the minutes of the last meeting and dutifull\ passes the resolution to adopt them as read. That is important but it's sol news. Now if the president stands up and. says llle minutes are slander on her or' his good name, that would be I1C11'S and by all means should be included in the report for the newspaper. When writing up your news. for the paper please print all names. They're familiar to you but probably not to the typesetter or proofreader. A slight error may cause some hard feelings among friends and that kind of headache no one needs whether they are in the newspaper trade or not. If -you have complaints please call the editor and talk things over, Your hard work is appreciated. Writing for your local paper is very satisfying. if you follow a few ground rules you can see your work in type just as you have presented it. Remember your paper is for your news and the more you participate the more you can enjoy the newspaper as well as your community, Smiles The little boy tugged on his mother's sleeve in church and asked, "What's the lady next to me singing?" "Alto, " hastily whispered his mother. "No wonder she sounds so funny," blurted out the lad, "We're singing Joy to the World!" the possibility of hiring that person as an employee already trained in his/her business, OCAP started as an inter- governmental project and is now going into its third year. 1t proved so successful that a 12 -week pilot project was started in industry in .1anuary , 1977. It was staged again between August, 1977' and March, 1978 with just less than 1.600 trainees and slightly more than I ,000 employers. (Most than 16.000 applications for trainee positions were received). According to Bill Fields .from the OC'A P Central Co-ordinating Unit in Toronto, this year's budget allows I'or some 3,000 participants in industry and another 2,000 in government. Fields estimated 11181 approxi- mately 75 per cent of all trainees last year gained enlployniCnt'and about 80 per cent of those got full -tinge jobs with the employers with whom they had trained. This high success rate isn't coincidental. One of OCA P's basic purposes is to help employers through the training period. Many employers can't • 1 • afford to recruit and train a new, employee --but when that employee is trained to their specifications at no cost to them, it makes good sense to hire that person. OCAP also gives the young pc1'son a chance to get inside the employer's door, Once they sleet face-to-face and SCC what each other is capable of, ensuing employment is more likely. Fields said OCAP is working agail)st the psychological barrier that there is an employment problem in this country, Thousands of jobs exist, he said, but young people today lack good job search techniques, which acrotrnts for much of the unemployment in the under -25 age bracket, OCAP gets people who needs jobs and people who need employees together and Fields sacs no reason why the success rate --of irp to 75 per cent employed—won't be every bit as high this year. To date, Conestoga College in Kitchener has about 60 trainee and 25 employer applications. People between the ages of 16 and 24 who have never held full-time employment in the career of their choice are eligible. They must be ' currently unemployed, looking for work and have been out of the educational system for at least three months, The Ontario government, through Conestoga College, pays the trainee a gross weekly payment of $100 --frons which mange tax and unemployment insurance premiums are deducted, The trainee is respon- sible for his/her own Ontario Health Insurance Plan (01-11P) premiums. The weekly stipend is affected by attendance and $20 is deducted for each day absent. With approval, however, the trainee is encouraged to attend job interviews and creative job technique sessions during ‘Norking hours. The trainee is considered present while attending these approved activi- ties. For more information contact: OCAP, Conestoga College, 299 Door Valley Drive, Kitchener, Ontario.

"Freedom is only possible," the broadcaster continued, "when adults carry the unspectacular responsibilities of citizenship... weighing issues, voting, partici- pating in enterprises that build rather than destroy. . Volunteer groups can create a more human society, and if they fail, our world may be shaped by "other forces less humane", Mr. Burghardt warned. "If there is anything which should make a person despise him or herself," he said, " it would be to live a little, mean existence in a time like this. We cannot excuse the person, the service club or organization, or community who holes into its comparatively comfortable environment of day-to-day living and refuses to have concern for building a better world." Are we really interested in helping those in need, he asked. "Does the bulk of our society, in truth, •want those in need to go away and not bother anybody?" The handicapped, old people, young people, poor people, are kept out of sight, on minimal assistance programs which keep them economically just where they are, Mr, Burghardt said. ",..Many citizens are not concerned about anyone outside the mainstream of our society.:. and everybody outside the mainstream knows it. So do the few dedicated people who work with them," Mr, Burghardt, an active United Church layman challenged. the audience: "Perhaps we ought to stop congratulating ourselves on our well-being, on our modern way of life, on our gross n rational product, and start reflecting ,on our gross attitudes toward jthe dis-inherited, the feeble, the troubled and the torn."

"You are the Tight of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do men light a lamp and put it under a peck -pleasure, but on a Iampstand and it gives light to all who arc 111 the house, Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may ser your good works, and glorif;y your Father who is in Heaven-. Have you ever been in a room when a light is flickering off and un? If the room is only lit by that 0110 flickering light when the light is off it is dark. After a short time we become very irritated and on edge because of the light, usually we would prefer the darkness than the constant change and of light and dark. As Christians we are to let our light shine before men that they might glorify the Father. Our light is .lesus living in and through us. In .I ohm 8:12 Christ said: "1 toll the light of the world; he who follows Me shall not walk in the darkness, but shall have the light of life". We as Christians need to make sure we are letting Christ lead and guide us and live through us at all times, not just occasionally. We are the only bit of Jesus some people will ever come in contact with, and the only Bible some will ever read. The promise is taht when we let our light shine our whole house, area, neighbour- hood, or wherever we are will receive that light. Can you imagine the effect that could have on some of our homes and the places we work. No matter where people come in contact with Christ, He has an effect on their life. Whether they meet through a Christian life and example, by reading God's Word, through a message which was inspired by the Holy Ghost, having met Christ we either accept or reject him. We either let our light shine or continue in darkness. Always remember where there is light - there is no darkness, This little light of mine I'm gonna let it shine, let it shine, let it shine, Why?

S. Halacy Chris Prentiss, aged 16, had planned a vacation in Yosemite but circumstances caused changes in the plans. A stolen car, a serious accident and misfortune for the Prentiss family 25th Wedding Anniversary Reception for JOHN AND IRENE Blake Family Paradise Hall Sat, , June 3 Dancing 9 - 1 Lunch provided Everyone Welcome Sugar and Spice by Bill Smiley Do you ever do one of those psychological quizzes in magazines or the Sunday paper? They're kind of fun, especially if you do then with your old pian/old lady. We do one every Sunday, although it's not a psych thing, but a straight quiz of general knowledge. And every Sunday morning, I get between 11 and 13 right out of 15, and the Old Battleaxe gets between six and nine right. There goes the rest of the Sabbath. I try to be decent and modest about it, "It's only because I know more about politics, read more general news,and am about twice as smart as you, dear." She responds: "Yes, it's because you are fascinated by those stupid politicians, have time to read the news while I'm doing housework, and are stupid enough to read a lot of stupid articles and watch stupid TV shows, that you beat 'me," And so it goes. But last Sunday morning, after I'd licked her 12.6 on the information quiz, she dug up another one, in a golf magazine, with little squeaks of delight and potential triumph. It was a personality probe, and the end result was that you were supposed to discover what sort of person you were, and as a side issue, what sort of golf player this would make you. You had to be absolutely honest in your answers. And if you weren't there was your spouse, across the way, glowering, and saying: "You aren't a bit like that." So, with brutal honesty, we did the quiz. We'd have been far better off in church, but there you can answer the questions, hide behind the prayer book, and bellow the hymns lustily, although you be a very Old Nick underneath, and nobody knows the dif- ference. This was real and earnest, with no sidestepping, no hiding, no evasions. And it came out pretty well as we had expected: we are almost total opposites. I've known it for years, but my wife forlornly keeps hoping and saying that we have a lot in common, Who needs it? The old adage says "Opposites attract." Maybe that's why we got stuck with each other, and have lived happily ever since. Oh, we have our little differences, but beyond things like "Drop dead!: " or "I'm leaving first thing in the morning," nothing much comes of them. Well, this quiz really spelled it out. There were 20 questions, each with three categories, and we filled them in religiously. There were three, column. Examples: 1. Dependent — Dominant — Detached. 2. Let things happen — Makes things happen — Watches things happen. In both of the above, I was number three, she was number two, And so it went, right down the list. Both of us had only two or three marked in the first column. In the second and third columns we were almost diametrically op- posed, although there were a few overlaps. Here's how we stacked up, if you haven't turned to the comics by now. My old lady is: dominant, assertive, anxious, kind, extrovert of action, has enduring rapport with people, quick- tempered, irascible, talkative, active, energetic, enterprising, precise, needs people when disturbed, puts stress on doing, makes things happen. Your humble servant, on the other hand, comes out as: detached, relaxed, calm, considerate, introverted, has extensive rap- port, is gentle -tempered, reflective, reserved, cool, inhibited, restrained, needs solitude. when disturbed, puts stress on perceiving, watches things happen. - We agreed we were both: even -explosive in temperament; had a love of privacy; were self-assured (in most cases); were suspicious. In four out of 20, we have something in common. Well, which of those two would you want to be stuck with for 30 -odd years? My old lady comes across as a quick-tempered, ag- gressive, dominating bully. Which she ain't, And I comes across as a cold, bloodless piece of calf's liver, hung over the line to dry, Which I ain't, Like all of those psychological quizzes, it's a bunch of junk. The title of my wife's category is the Triangular Type, or the muscular Warrior, She is supposed to bully people on the tee, offer advice, and play only to win. Hell, whe can't even bully me, accepts advice, and plays only to win, My category is .alled the Linear Type, or the Loner. I'm supposed to be a solitary, not wanting confrontation, and even want to go out and play . twilight golf/ by myself. Ridiculous, I wouldn't walk across the street to play nine holes of golf by myself. One of us might win, The only thing we found out from the quiz was that we both should have been in the first column, called the Circular, the happy extrovert who enjoys golf andy plays an excellent game.
