ed by Shane Taylor. 8elgrayc scored in the
2nd period. At the half way point in the 3rd
period Ricky Howson got a break away. He

CHARGE BLOCKED — Blyth hockey players had their efforts
dismantled by the Howick novice team Monday night in Blyth. The score
remained one to nothing for Howitt Novice team Monday night In Blyth.
The score remained one to nothing for Howick until the last three minutes
of the last period when Howick slapped In two goals and Blyth retaliated
with a single goal during the last second of play.

Beware of money deals
In these times where every dollar counts
many are looking for ways to earn a little extra
cash on the side to help pay the bilk.
Residents in the Blyth area are no
exception and when an ad ran early in
December or late November in the Blyth
Standard one couple responded to the ad
Fifteen dollars later and somewhat wrier
they are anxious to expose the problem they
ran into. For obvious reasons they wish to
remain anonymous.
It all started with a . stuffing envelopes
scheme. The classified ad appeared "S40 per
hundred processing envelopes. postage paid.
Send self addressed envelope to " and so on
The couple answered the ad and received a
form letter requesting SI5. They would in
turn receive a coupon for S2 off on their next
form plus instructions. They filled in the• term
letter and shortly after received a two page
letter of instructions on how they could earn
this fabulous money.

Pee Wees win 2 more
Saturday. December it) marked the
biggest win vet for the high-tlsing,
undefeated Blyth Peewei• "A's". The
biggest game, that is, it you're counting the
number of goals.
Scoring began after only a minute and a
halt of the first period when Dean Lawrie
tapitaliteu on a pass from Larry Honking
and Mark Allen, putting Blyth ahead 1-0,
Another Blyth goal was scored seconds later
by Kevin Scrimgeour, assisted by David
Spading. Less than 2 minutes more had
ticked away before Dan McDougall scored
an unassisted goal. making it 3.0 Blyth, and
the only response Hensall would make to
that or any other goal came later in that
period. From that point on, the Blyth Boys
began their domination of the ice and their
target practice at the Hensall goaltender.
Teamwork, passing and a lot of "hustle"
overwhelmed the visitors, allowing Blyth to
take full advantage of all opportunities
Throughout the game, albeit far from
exciting. Blyth kept scoring goat atter goat

THE BLYTH STANDARD. DECEMBER 30. 1981 — A3
Christmas goes too fast for me
It is over so quickly that it
is hard to believe all the work
you put in can be enjoyed so
fast.
Christmas was over before
we knew it in our house. And
with both of us battling out
colds and sniffles we either
spent time in bed recouping
our strength or eating up a
storm somewhere. You know
the old saying: Feed a cold
and starve a fever.
The next marker is New
Years and for a change we
are going to try and make it
out to friends who are having
a party.
Every year we start out
with good intentions but
parties start so late; lust
about the time I am ready to
call it an evening and hit the
sack, l must be more of a
child at heart as New Years
just does not bring the same
kind of excitement that
Christmas does.
In fact the passing of the
old year int() a new one is
rather depressing. Even as a
teenager I remember km)
many celebrations spent
mooning over projects left
incomplete and friends not
seen in the past year. It has
not changed.
In the past few years Klaus
and I have lit the fireplace
and spent the night listening
to our favourite records and
drinking Irish coffees, hot
cocoa with mint liqueur, egg
nogs and rum and a few
other treats which cause us
to miss the midnight mark
and shout Happy New Years
somewhere in the wee hours
when we wake up from our
fattening pasttime to go to
bed.
This year we are off to
visit. My father and his wife
returned from a long stay in
Florida and we will have to
give them a call to wish them
the typical New Years greet•
Ings and welcome them
home. It was their first
Christmas away from home
and from the call we made on
Christmas day they really
were missing the family and
the snow, if you can believe
that. Dad remarked that 80
degree weather was not his
idea of Christmas and far too
hot for any time of the year.
It just goes to prove.

From Me to You
By Rhea Hamilton
you love are near.
New Year's is also a time
for football games. Not a fan
myself, it is hard to resist the
call of the tube with Klaus
jumping and yelling in the
living room over a foul ball or
misfit run. Mind Von 1 never
get the terms right and fail
to see the importance of all
these games at the end of the
year but I do enjoy watching

the field.
11 sometimes gets tows
painful to watch and then I
retire to a hook or n►aganne
until near the end when all
the action gets really hot and
heavy. This year I will also be
busy with a goxose dinner
with hopes that Klaus can he
persuaded to make his delic-
ious pecan and raisin dress-
ing. Once he sees it in print
how can he refuse?
Hope you and yours have
not made too mans resolut•
ions and that the old ()nes
from t480 are still holding
up. I have come to the
conclusion that if we all try
and resolve to be a little
Netter or a little hit more
tolerant the world will be a
better place for all.
Happy New Year.

Junk or parking
A comment b a Blyth councillor at the last Blyth council meeting has
raised a few ey ?brows among some of the merchants on main street
The issue wax the tearing down of the bank building and replacing it
with valuable p •king space that will replace space lost when the new
bank is built acros„ the street in half of what is now a parking lot.
The discussion from the merchants comes not from the question of
whether to keep the bank building or not, but on what constitutes a junk
;tore
Huron County planner Roman Dzus pointed out to council that in the
cities people walk blocks for their purchases from parking locations well
spaced out. One councillor argued that the shopping done in the city core
areas is more from junk shops where small items are picked up, not heavy
groceries or bulky items from hardware or building centres.
It was the comment related to junk shops that started the rumblings
along the main drag. Just what constitutes a junk store Blyth has a
viable business area with just about everything the average homeowner
would want 10 purchase It was the one councillor's argument that the
core area of cities like Toronto is being quickly filled up with small shops
selling articles that only a limited number of people would buy. His term
was junk. The concern of council was that Blyth maintain the downtown
core it has now and enhance it with more parking space.
One merchant pointed out later that no matter what service or articles
are being sold. each business is just that and provides a tax base for the
community in which it is located. If no one bought the commodity offered
then the shop would no longer. be in business_
Here the old saying "one man's junk is another man's treasure"
comes in quite handy. But the heart of the matter is not the unfortunate
wording but the loss or gain of valuable parking space or the loss or gain
of main street store space that will probably not be replaced in our
lifetime once torn down
While merchants decide whether they are included in the remark
about junk stores they miss the issue as to what business will be like here
if the old bank building is torn down or if it is allowed to stand.
The gain of approximately nine parking spaces seems hardly fitting
considering the use that the building could be put to if allowed to remain
standing. Granted repairs have to be made to shore up the structure but
how do the costs compare with those of a new building? Merchants have
until the January meeting of council to get their thoughts together and
react to the proposal made by members of the Blyth Centre for the Arts in
their plea to save the building for the future of Blyth.
To the editor:
May I extend my sincerest thanks to you for
sending me The Blyth Standard during the
past year' Together we have teamed our
talents and out resources to present a pioneer
venture in the field of communications. The
audio-visual capsule of grass-roots stories
about people in the smaller centres of South
Western Ontario is, I believe, a first of its
kind.
It is hoped that your co-operation will
continue throughout the New Year.
Since its inception in October of 1980.
"Country Editor" hu used stories from your
Blyth Standard on Town councillors, one of
whom considered them overpaid; and an
interesting feature on the ancient game of
horseshoe pitching. That seems a fair score
for Blyth. when one equates the stringent
limits imposed by a three-minute weekly time
slot, and the vast wealth of information to be
gleaned each week from an almost unbelieve-
able number of community newspapers.
My congratulations to your news room
staff.
May 1 also express the hope that the
"Peace on Earth, Goodwill Toward Men"
promised humanity 1982 years ago, may be
with you, and all of yours, now and forever.
Yours faithfully,
Arthur Carr

Behind the Scenes
by Keith Roulston
It's the end of the old year. the beginning
of the new and traditionally we make pledges
about the things we would Tike to change next
year.
There are so mans things in this world that
need to be changed that we have plenty of
scope for resolutions. But what can we do to
resolve the many vast problems of this world.
We feel so small, so impotent. What goad is it
for us to expend so much of our energy for
such few results. We might as well stay home
and watch television.
The most recent issue of Harrow•smith
magazine contains a marvellous story, one of
the kind we need to hear now and then to
restablish our faith in mankind. The story
takes place in the area of southern France
south of the Alps and north of the resorts of
Cannes, Nice and Monte Carlo. This area,
however. had neither the beauty of the
ski -resort areas of the Alps or the glamour of
the Riveiera. When the story begins just
before the First World War the area is a grim
place. The story teller. one Jean Giono was on
A walking trip through the area. over the
mountains. This area south of the Alps was
little more than desert, barren and colourless
where nothing grew but lavender plants.
The villages and homes were mostly
deserted and those people who still remained
were grim, cheerless people living in hovels
trying to scratch a living from the rough land.
The hiker ran out of water and had walked
for five hours without finding any springs or
rivers that hadn't dried up. Finally he came
upon a shepherd with about 30 sheep who
welcomed him, gave him water and later took
him to his home for the night. Despite the
harsh conditions the shepherd kept a neat,
tidy house, ate well, dressed well and lived
far beyond the lifestyle of other inhabitants in
the region. He just didn't talk much. He had
been alone so much that he didn't feel the
need to talk.
While the visitor was with 'the shepherd
after the supper had been made, the dishes
washed and put away and all the work for the
day done, the shepherd pulled out a bag of
acorns and began to sort them out until he
picked out 100 perfect acorns and went 10
bed. The nett day the hiker learned what the
shepherd was up to. Using an iron rod Jr(
carried as a stick, the shepherd spent pot of
his day while the sheep were grazi in the
valley below, planting the 100 acorns on a
ridge of land. The hiker asked who owned the
land but the shepherd didn't know, Under
persistent questioning, the shepherd told the
hiker that he had started planting the acorns
three yeas ago. in that time he had planted 1
100,0(.1) acorns of which 20.000 sprouted and
grew of which he expected a further 10,(1X) to
he killed off by one reason or another. Still
there would be 10,090 oak trees to grow in an
area where nothing else grew.
The man explained that he had lost both his
wife and his son and now took his comfort
from his sheep and dog. He had thought the
area suffered for lack of trees sodecided to do
something about it. He was also starting a
nursery where he was growing beech tree
seedlings from beech nuts and he was
thinking of planting birch trees in the valley.
The hiker left the shepherd and a year later
was at war. After the war he returned to the
area and found much of the area the same
except that on the ridge the trees were taller
than either man and the shepherd. who was
now keeping only a few sheep but had started
bee hives, was still planting. The treed area
was 11 kilometers long and three kilometers
at its greatest width, There were beech trees
as high as the shoulder and clumps of birch in
the valley. There was water flowing in the
brooks that had been dry as far as the memory
of everyone in the area. By now the wind was
carrying seeds that replanted themselves.
Hunters were coming to the area to hunt
game that had been unknown years before. It
had happened so gradually that everyone
thought it had happened by nature, although
forestry experts were baffled by such a
phenomenon.
The hiker went back several times but the
last was following the Second World War. He
found a country unbelievably different than
the one he had first visited. The village he had
seen then filled with grim people was now
several times larger, filled with happy,
friendly people and children. There were
farms settled among the groves of trees.
Water was plentiful. The area was beautiful
to the eye. The hiker estimated that some
10,000 people owed their happiness to the
work of one man. He was still alive, now 87
years old. All during the war he had gone on
planting trees. He had moved 30 kilometers
from his original plantation to continue his
work. And no one, outside of the hiker and a
friendly forestry ofikial the hiker brought to
see the shepherd, knew who was responsible
for the vast changes in the area.
That shepherd, Elzeard Boa!'fier who died
in a French hospital in 1947 knew something
that most of us refuse to see. We each have
the power to make the world a little better
place even if we have no money, no
resources outside ourselves. We can learn
much from him.
THE BLYTH STANDARD, DECEMBER 30, 1981 -- A5
When Santa wore coonskin
BY EV MINA WEBSTER
My most memorable
Christmas was in 1942. It was
wartime and many young
men from Great Britain were
training at the Port Albert Air
Base. We frequently en•
tertained some of the boys on
our farm at Seaforth.
Jock Kennedy from
Glasgow and Alan Simpson
of Manchester were invited to
spend their Christmas leave
with us.
They arrived the day before
Christmas to add to the
excitement of our three boys
aged 7, 5 and 2 yrs.
At supper time, Tom, the
eldest, who attended Public
School, very knowingly
announced There is no Santa
Claus" Jack, our Scaksman -
said "will have to do
something about that."
Christmas Eve the children
hung their stockings on the
mantle, left a treat for Santa,
were tucked into bed and
soon fast sleep.
We hunted up an old
coonskin coat and hat, filled a
bag with hay and Jock
paraded in front of the house
shooting Ho Ho!
The boys were dragged out
of bed and to the cottage
window to see Santa and then
back to bed where they were
soon asleep again. They said
nothing.
The remainder of the
evening we sat before the
cherry wood fire in our
ancient old fireplace and
listened to readings from
Bobbie Burns as only a true
Scotsman can render them.
Our English lad, not to be
outdone, read from Tennytnn
Christmas morning the
children were up at daybreak
to see what Santa had bought
(gifts were never very large
then) and to see if he had
eaten the cookies,
At breakfast Tom said very
seriously "I always thought
Santa was short and fat"
Now I know he's tall and
thin", Jock had his reward.
We listened to our young
Queen's Christmas message
then all piled into the sleigh
(there were too many of us for
the cutter) and drove through
the frosty air to my brother's
farm. There we were Rreeted
by two equally excited little
girls. Nancy and Sally and the
children's grandparents.
We all enjoyed a wonderful
Christmas dinner. The
children could hardly wait for
the gifts under the tree to be

No one seemed to notice
that Jock had left the house.
Soon there was the jingling of
bells and a load knocking at
the door. Our coonskin dad
Santa was back.
Pandemonium reigned! It
didn't matter that Santa had a
very Scottish accent. The
room was filled with shouts of
glee as each received their
gifts.
