Thanksgiving for the worker
BY REV. A DIELEMAN
The backbone of our
country—do you know what it
is? It is not our great
Canadian dollar, or cur
parliament, or Alberta's oil,
a our armed forces. The
backbone of our country is
the Canadian worker. To the
millions of men and women
who have laboured since
confederation to the present
we owe a debt of gratitutde.
It wall the great Canadian
water who unified our
country with the strips of
railway steel, and with the
hardtop of the Trans-
Canada. It is the water who
puts food on our tables. It is
the worker who puts luxuries
to our homes. It is the worker
who supplies the money to
keep the unwieldy wheels of
government running.
Frac the Bible we know
that work is a God -ordained
thing. From the beginning
leak was and is God's
purpose for men. Adam, for

The minister's study
instance, was placed in the
Garden in order to work.The
cultural mandate given to
Adam wu also a mandate to
work: "Be fruitful and
multiply, and fill the earth
and subdue it; and have
dominion over the fish of the
sea and over the birds of the
air and over every living
thing that moves upon the
earth." The fourth
commandment implies that
the divine purpose for man is
work.
How come work, in spite of
its high calling, is nota joy to
most people? How come it so
often seems to be a burden
instead of • bkssing? The
reason for this is sin. Sin has
changed one's perception of
work. It no longer is a means
by which one can glorify
God. Instead it is a means to
get ahead. Because of sin it
has become the means of
exploitation and oppression.
The good news of the
Goapel is that when Jesus
ame to earth work once
again had the potential to be
a blessing instead of a curse.
Jesus, working as a
carpenter has shown there is
nothing wrong with work.
Paul, u a tentmaker, sets us
an example of honest and
hard labour.
For the Christian work is a
necessary and joyful part of
lite. We are told to do our
work as if we were doing it
for the Lord Himself (which
in a way we are/. Wort, then,
becomes a means to glorify
and praise God. The
Christian also knows that "If
any would not work, neither
should he eat.,'

From Me to You
By Rhea Hamilton
This weekend brought
some disturbing news to me.
A tragic affair is being
played out in a friends' life
and I am one of those
helpless to put a. stop to it.
We are all aware of the
abuse handed out to both men
and women in relationships,
and of the frustrating time
they have of it breaking the
fearful grip their partner hu
on them.
Physical abuse is nothing
new, yet more and marc
communities are beginning
to take the problem out of the
closet and offer alternatives
for those distressed. Halfway
houses are in great demand
and police officers are being
better trained on how to
handle domestic situations
and what information to offer
a woman who calls for help.
Help is needed
While some comment
"they deserved it" no
human being deserves to be
treated so roughly. There is
no need for broken limbs,
cracked ribs, and bruises and
cuts galore.
But the feu of a repeat
performance is not of the
same intensity u the feu of
retribution if the partner
attempts to rid him or herself
d the abuse.
There are answers and
solutions to every problem.
They are not always easy and
no one guarantees the road
will be better. While tele-
vision and talk shows tell us
there is a better way it all
boils down to nothing when
you see abuse happening to a
friend.
What can you do? The first
step has to be taken by the
people involved.
The longer they persist in
trying to ignore the situation
the harder it becomes to take
the fast step and either end
the affair or seek professional
help.
But as the old cliche
goes it takes two to tango, or
maybe it should be two to
tangle.
Being too far away for a
quick overnight stay I still
feel that a third party would
help but it could again be
dangerous too. Family and
friends alike have to offer
encouragement and prayers
far those involved.
So we look to our peace
officers.
But police cannot be
everywhere at once. If
woman or man being beaten
an reach a phone, who can
say how long it will take
before police can respond to
Blyth council
The village insurance pol-
icy came under scrutiny last
Monday evening when John
Elliott went over the Insur•
once policy with council mem-
ber.
Seven recommendations
were made to council of which
only three areas were approv-
ed.
Under accident insurance
the principal sum for accid-
ental death and dismember-
ment for fire fighters be
increased from 15,000 to
110,000. Firemen are also
covered under workmens
compensation Property
insurance is not covered on an
all risk basis subject to a
1250 deductable.
Council also passed a resol-
ution which will enable Frank
Cowan Insurance Ltd. to
extend the Non -owned auto-
mobile policy to cover mem-
bers of council, officers, em-
ployees, and volunteers for
liability dahns arising out of
their automobiles while on
munkpal business for a-
mounts In excess of their
liability coverage.
An insurance premium
break down was presented,
with the total bill amounting
to 19,258. plus the new
additions which will amount
to 1654.00.
There have been several
changes since the last renew-
al August 1, 1960. The
insurance bond, burglary and
forgery was increased to
125,000. The value of con-
tents has been increased by
10 per cent and fire values
raised for 11,482,500.00 to
$1,626,000.00
The new step van for the
fire department has been
inducted as of August 1.
Taxpayers are in for a
shock if they are among the
growing numbers that hold
back property taxes to save a
tittle money. The ministry of
Revenue has evn the okay
to muni4a to raise the
penalty on unpaid taxes to a
Apra deer to the going rate
for borrowed money. The
village may charge 24 per
oast or 2 per coat for every
mouth the tames are left
unpaidPio sot* aline Is owes -
sorry for accounts already in
arrears.
The Bank of Commerce
where the village account is
held suggested the village
group their accounts for eas-
ler bookkeeping. In the three
accounts, general, water and
hydro a set amount be main-
tained. If the total drops
below the recommended spot
the bank charges 3 per ent
interest on the amount owing.
The balance of the funds are
to be kept Ina savings account
with interest accruing. Coun-
cil approved the plan. At
present council receives 3 per
cent on the village funds in
account with no deficiency
charges. With the new plan
they will be accruing regular
interest rates minus the 3 per
cent if accounts fall below the
set figures.
T.A. Gordon estate is still
plaguing the village. The
parcel of land located south of
the Senior Citizens home was
once suggested for expropria-
tion and recommended rather
to be bought through the
proper channels.
The delay now is with the
succession duty branch on the
Ministry of the Attorney
General. Lawyers for the
estate apologized for the
delay and hope to have the
problem cleared up soon.
Council okay'd a 125 grant
to the Huron Day Centre for
the Homebound to assist
them in publishing pocket
sized gu ide hoot for the
handicapped.
The book pro-
duced in cooperation with
Alpha Huron will publish
accessibility routes in public
building for the handicap-
ped.
OFA to study farms'
financial crisis
A five -member Ontario
Federation of Agriculture
(OFA) task force hu launced
an estimated 150,000 study
into the financial crisis faring
Ontario farmers, and will
report to the federation's
annual meeting in Decem-
ber.
OFA president Ralph Bar-
rie announced the task force
at a MiddIese: federation
meeting at Komoka last
week, and said one In four
Ontario farmers is hurting
finawkily.
The task fora will eum-
lit-1dgh interest rates and
their effect on longterm
farm development; examine

the economy; and roma-
mead policies that will pro-
vide b tterm food security
far Goodies eosarsttmees and
financial security for Ontario
farmers.
Mr. Barrie says great
pains were taken to give
balance and credibility to the
task force with will hold
meetings across Ontario
seeking input from farmers,
small businesses and coo-
sumers.
Members of the task force
are: MP John Wise, (PC -

person involved is charged
he or she can be out on ball in
a matter of hours and up to
their old tricks all over again.
In a non -marital relation-
ship the outcome can be
worse. Whik neighbours will
rally around a wife and her
children, they may not have
any sympathy for a woman
who has a common-law re-
lationship. Then too, there
are plenty of neighbourhoods
that won't offer assistance to
any one no matter how long

To the editor:
Thankful for
Hall's ramp
Not until last Wednesday night when
family members attended the Blyth Theatre
did the tremendous advantages of the ramp
for disabled persons forcefully come home to
me.
To see my sister Vivian Sims in her wheel
chair with a minimal amount of help ascend
the ramp smoothly and quickly to the theatre
entrance was both conforting and amazing .
What a far cry from the method by which
she reached theatre level six years ago when
she had to go up the fire escape backwards,
sitting on one step, then struggling up with
help to the nett one. pausing at intervals to
rest'
Had the ramp not been incorporated into
the architec tura) plans for the addition to
Memorial Hall, my sister. at this stage, would
be deprived of the enjoyment of seeing any
plays at the Blyth Summer Festival as would
all disabled people who enjoy drama and
musical productions.
One hears reports about the hitch cost of the
erection of the ramp. Despite this the debt for

Rain wipes out half
county's early bean crop
The early white bean crop in Huron County
has been seriously affected by the very wet
weather recently. Stan Paquette, associate
agriculture representative with the Ontario
Ministry of Agriculture and Food IOMAF) at
Clinton, says that as of Tuesday morning as
much as 50 per cent of the euly white bean
crop has been lost. Late beans have also been
affected by the heavy rain. Mr. Paquette says
10 to 20 per cent of the late bean crop has
been lost. He adds pods touching the wet
ground have sprouted beans which are not
market able.
Some hay which had been cut but not
harvested in the country has also been lost
because of the rainfall. The associate ag. rep
also says the silage corn harvest has been
delayed because of wet field conditions, as
has the harvest of specialized cash crops in
the areas such as onions, rutabagas and
potatoes.
Louis Stadelmann at Environment Can-
ada's weather station at Goderich says that
;own has had about three and one-half inches
(as of Tuesday morning)of rain since the satrt
of September, as much rain in a week as the
area usually received in an average Septem-
ber month. Other areas of Huron County have
had even more rainfall.
"Summer's almost over and the heat will
soon be gone," says Mr. Stadelmann, "what
farmers in the area really need is about two
weeks of real nice, dry summer weather."

The letter states, "The
bankruptcies and forced sales
that have occurred, and those
that will surely follow in the
weeks to come, should be a
good indication of what, or
maybe more important, who,
will grow the food needed for
this country."
"Farmers have been en-
deavoring for 1'// y ears to
tell you that there is a serious
problem. It is now a major
crisis."
"Forty pet cent of the
population is directly or in-
directly employed by the
agriculture industry. A large
portion of our balance of
payments is derived from
agriculture," the letter
states.
The letter also asks if it
would be possible for primary
food producers to make a
living. The letter asks for
immediate action to save
what is left of the agricuhural
community.

The country is coming apart at the seams
and none of the politicians seem to have the
leadership ability to save us: or so the
editorial pages of our newspapers tell us day
in and day out. Hereafter, then, a few
possible news stories from the future when
our leaden take on real leadership to meet
the problems of today such u acid rain,
unemployment and inflation.

TORONTO: After one of his government's
minister's called Ronald Reagan's cutbacks
on pollution standards an "unfriendly act,"
Ontario Premier William Davis has announc-
ed he is taking retaliatory measures against
the United States to fight acid rain.
Since the source of acid rain that is
destroying hundreds of Ontario lakes is in the
United States and since prevailing westerly
winds bring the pollution into Canada Mr.
Davis said that he planned to build a huge
system of electric fans along the western
boundary of the province to blow the pollution
back into the United States. To the outward
eye of a U.S. spy satellite or a tourist from
Kalamazoo Mlch., (who might be in the
employ of the C.I.A.) these electric fans will
look much like the windmills being used
experimentally use wind power to generate
electricity but these will actuallyuse
electricity to generate wind. Mr. Davis also
announced Ontario will build five more
nuclear and 10 -coal -powered electrical gen-
erating stations along the shores of Lake
Huron to provide the electricity needed to run
the fans.
•••
OTTAWA: Back from his six -moth tour of
African nations Prime Mnister Pierre Tru•
deau announced today that the Canadian
government will institute a policy of trllingua-
lism.
The Prime Minister said that if Canada is to
continue its leading role in the North-South
dialogue it is important that Canadians be
able to speak the language of the African
countries. Therefore, he stated, government
policies will encourage the teaching of
Swahili in schools and enforce it's use in
government offices.
Manufacturers of breakfast cereals imme-
diately protested. They said they would
either have to increase the size of cereal
boxes to put all three official languages on or
reduce the type size of the lettering and
provide a magnifying glaze with each box; in
either case making the cost prohibitive.
Alberta Premier Peter Lougheed angrily
attacked the federal government for the
proposal. if a new language was needed for a
north -south dialogue, he argued, then the
important language for Albertans to learn to
talk to their southern counterparts was
Texan.
•••
OTTAWA: Bank of Canada Governor Gerald
Bouey has come up with a startling new plan
to combat the shrinking Canadian dollar due
to rampant inflation.
Mr. Bouey announced that the size of all
Canadian bills this year would be increased
by 12.5 per cent to match last year's inflation
rate and in the future the dimensions of the
bill would be indexed to :he inflation rate just
like government pension pians.
•••
OTTAWA: Michael Warren, head of the new
post office crown corporation has revealed a
new plan to speed mail delivery.
Mr. Warren said that since all citizens over
the age of 26 have assured him that the mail
moved faster in the days when it was carried
by stage coach than It does in the jet age he is
bringing back mall stage coaches.
Transport Minister Jean -Luc Pepin was in
agreement with the scheme saying that since
so many communities had been demanding a
return to the good old days of rail
transportation that he will do them one better
by returning stage coaches travel to all
communities.
•••
TORONTO: Worried by the continuing
decline in the Ontario economy and a shift of
industry to the energy -rich west Premier
William Davis hu come up with a new plan to
rejuvenate the Ontario economy.
Mr. Davis said his experts had told him
that there is tremendous potential for the
generation of electricity in Ontario's north-
land. They point out that with acid rain
turning Ontario lakes into add lakes Ontario
Hydro can implant electrodes in the water
and turn each of the hundreds of lakes into
giant batteries.
Mr. Davis said that the new plan would
alter but not cancel his earlier announced
plan to construct giant windmills to blow acid
rain back into the United States. Instead of
blowing the add rain the windmills will now
be reversed to suck more acid rain into
Canada therby increasing the acidity of the
lakes and increasing the electrical getters -
ling potential of the lakes.
An American company has been given the
franchise for the new scheme he said.

the site of the old bridge which is gone now.
About 1896, the Kuntz family moved to

Hymns sung were accom•

from Revelations 3: 14-22.

Meditation "The Open
Door". Many different kinds
of doors are available, but no
matter what kind of door, one
important question "How
does it open?". Many times
in life we must choose the
kind of door we shall open.
The hospitable door is a two
way proposition. Every
Christian should be a model.
The Bible speaks of many
doors. Doors of hope, faith
and opportunity are the sub-
jects of letters written to the
early churches. Jesus is the
door that leads to happiness
and peace. Jesus is the way to
eternal life.

THE BLYTH STANDARD, SEPTEMBER 9, 1981 — All
Long time married to strange lady
Last week I was whining about what a bum
summer I'd been having. I shouldn't have.
My wrenched elbow cleared up and I was able
to play some golf. With my putter. If I tried to
swing with any other club. it was just like
having a hot poker rammed through my
elbow. But my wife bore up under my pain
very well.
The summer ended with a burst of
something or other. If 1 were a farmer, I might
compare it to a plague of locusts. But there
were only two of them and they didn't strip
my crops. They just ground me to the bone.
physcially and emotionally. My two grand -
boys, who are this generation's answer to the
perpetual motion machine.
From 7 a.m. to about 9 a.m., they're
delightful. They play with their complicated
toys, scarcely fight at all, eat a big breakfast
and generally are good little boys. But from 9
a.m. to 9 p.m. they want action, novelty,
excitement and constant motion. At the
centre of this, rather resembling a whirling
dervish, is Grandad, whom they seem to
believe is about 18 years old.
However, we got through it with no more
than the usual amount of breakage, soilage
and personal outrage.
But the old lady and 1 were so frazzled we
didn't even have the strength to embrace on
our 35 anniversary, which came along soon
after the locusts.
Holy old Moly, isn't that a long time to be
marc ied to a strange woman?
I've never been able to figure out what has
kept us together for half a life -time. We are
completely opposite in temperament, dis-
agree violently and continually. and our
tastes in general are almost completely
dissimilar.
She does everything as though it were the
last day of her life and she had to face the Lord
or whoever, with everything done. That is, at
top speed.
By the time 1 have finished my morning's
ablution, for example, she has made the bed,
put on a laundry, vacuumed the living -room,
prepared breakfast, and probably done some
ironing or cleaned a couple of windows. And
then she's sitting there, impatient and even
cranky, when 1 stroll down, pick up the
morning paper, drink my tea and behave like
a normal citizen. She wants to talk about Life,
or our children, or her insomnia, or some
other damfool thing. All I want to do is read
the paper.
I rather enjoy shopping in a supermarket.
By myself. 1 never have a list, Just poke
around watching the weird people. admiring
the skill and speed and stamina of the cash
register girls, walking put the meat counter
shaking my head dolefully, buying some
cottage cheese which I invariably forget
about until it goes rotten, picking up half a
dozen bananas (and discovering we have
another half dozen when 1 get home),
Sugar Ft Spice
by Bill Smiley
enjoying a coffee at the coffee counter, where
the waitress is like a robot on speed.
Generally, 1 shop in low gear. 1 buy things we
already have or don't need (maybe a can of
smoked oysters) and 1 forget to buy things we
are out of, like toilet paper. But it doesn't
bother me.
1 hate shopping with my wife. She goes at it
as though it were the four hundred meter
women's Olympic race. Sometimes she has
left me three or four aisles behind as I push
the cart at *civilized pace.
She always hu a list u long as your arm in
one hand, pencil in the other for crossing
things out, glasses on to read the small print,
and pocket calculator in her purse to translate
the metric system. The last item never proves
anything except that whether it's ounces and
pounds or litres and milligrams, the cost of
food is going up.
She plays golf the same way, hitting the
ball and rushing after it as though she were
going to kill it for not going where it was
supposed to, while 1 waddle along, at about
two miles an hour, looking at the trees and the
clouds and the other idiots whacking their
ball into the woods.
She even eats fast. 1 have just got my first
cob of corn nicely buttered and salted, and
she's well through her seconds cob.
She doesn't sleep well because she's
always thinking about tomorrow's race
against time, or $ wedding present to buy , or
her children, ort—Fie fact that she might not
sleep and will only be able to gallop
tomorrow, instead of running flat out. I sleep
like a babe.
When we're going somewhere. she wants
to be ready an hour ahead, so we'll get a good
seat, or avoid bad traffic, or whatever.
Thanks to me, we usually arrive just before
the bride, or just before the curtain goes up.
Well, that's temperament. She's crazy.
I'm normal, or a little below. if you want to get
picky.
We disagree. Any healthy couple does. But
they "talk things out" and reach a consensus
that everybody hu a right to his/her peculiar
ideas. We don't. 1 say flatly. "That's a lot of
B.S.". She promptly retorts, "Well, I've
been listening to your B.S. for blank years."
And away we go, whether it's politics. the
economy, religion, or who took the garbage
out last week.
And as to tastes, we're miles apart. She
likes classical music. I like blues and ragtime.
She doesn't like huntin' or fishing or boating.
I'm not mad about sewing, and I go a bit
glauy-eyed when she starts, and goes on
and on abou t nips and tucks and darts and

Morris to appeal disposal plan
Morris Township Council decided to
proceed with its appeal on the waste disposal
site when it met in regular council season on
Tuesday afternoon.
Last fall, council appealed regulation
under the new Pits and Quarries Act which
said they had to have a plan of operations for
the site by December 31 of 1982. Council
didn't feel a plan of operation was necessary
as they thought the way the waste disposal
site was being operated was sufficient and so
they plan to continue with their appeal.
Wages were negotiated for the madmen
with grader operators Jim Casemore and
John Smith getting 58.10 an hour compared
to 7.25 last year and Lloyd Michie, S7 an hour
compared to S6 per hour last year.
Council decided to proceed with the storm
sewer system on Jane St. in Belgrave.
Ross Nichol and Clem McLellan were at the
council meeting to request that work be done
on the road on Concession 6 and this will be
done sometime in the fall.
Council accepted the tile drain loan
application of Chris and Noel Bird, subject to
the availability of funds and received
notification that their tile drain allocation for
the year was 5161,400 and passed a bylaw to
apply for the money. About 20 people should
get the money from this which should be in
the township by October 1.
The next council meeting is October 5 at 1
p.m.

Homemakers Japanese dinner to raise funds
The Board of Directors of
Town and Country Home-
makers held their regular
monthly meeting at the home
of Gwyn Whilsmith where
membra enjoyed lunch on
the shores of Lake Huron at
St. Joseph. Tickets were
distributed to each member
for "Japanese Cuisine" to be
held In September. It was
reported that the spring bulbs
should be available for sale at
this event.
The committee from the
north end of the county
reported plans are underway
for a variety concert featuring
good local entertainment to
be held in October at the F.E.
Madill Secondary School in
Wingham. This "may be an
annual fund-raising event
with everything from music to
comedy" says Bev Brown,
chairman of the board.
Executive Director, Jean
Young informed the board
that to date, S16,002 has been
raised for the building fund,
for the office on Victoria
Street .
In an effort to hold its
meeting on a rotation basis
throughout the county, the
next regular board meeting is
tentatively planned for Sep-
tember 23, in Exeter.

Former Goderich mayor
Ernie C. Fisher, 61, hu

try of Consumer and Com-
mercial Relations' director of

get a tittk more time with his
family", though Mr. Fischer
could not be reached for
comment.
Mr. Fisher was mayor of
Goderich for six terms in the
late 1950s and early 1960s.
He ran unsuccessfully for
the Liberals in the federal

Marijuana, lung disease
will be meeting topics
THE BLYTH STANDARD. SEPTEMBER 9, 1981 — A15
The Huron Perth
Lung Association is sponsor-
ing "Breatheezie" Rally at
the Perth District Health
Unit, Stratford on Monday.
September 21 at 7:30 p.m.
when Dr. Thomas Wood,
Lung Disease Specialist of St.
Josephs Hospital, London
will speak and as well present
some Marijuana facts. Phys-
iotherapist Janice Parsons
will discuss fall classes. The
public is invited.
YOU CAH MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
During the next few months, we will be
studying a 'number of alternative plans for
electrical transmission in southwestern
Ontario. The study will look at the alternatives
from many points of view, including cost,
wise use of land and effects on the environ-
ment. The goal is to determine which
plan is the best choice, for all of us, and
then to submit a recommendation to
government.
After a plan is approved, further studies with
public participation and hearings will lead to
the eventual construction of transmission lines.
Your questions, comments and input at
this early stage are important in helping us
make the best possible recommendation.
To help you learn more about the study We've
prepared a special information kit.
Please send for it today and be part of the
study that will plan for future electrical trans-
mission in southwestern Ontario. You are
also invited to attend a "Study Information j
Centre" to ask questions and make
suggestions first hand.
