WISE!
Interested But Not For Money
Pickering Township
Is interested in a sur-
vey of their area, but
not to the extent of
paying out good, hard-
earned tax money.
Oshawa has asked the
township if it would
cooperate in a survey
about the future dev-
elopment of the area.
Councillor Art King
said: "We're interest-
ed in the survey but
not in the costs."
Councillor Don Kit-
chen thought to partic-
ipate in the survey
would weaken Picker-
ing's case for pining
Metro Toronto.
Councillor Vic Rudik
thought that statistics,
and data for the sur-
vey could be provided
though.
Councillor John Kru-
ger felt thateventually
a "data bank" would
have to be built.
The councillors de-
cided that they would
cooperate but not part-
icipate financially.
Can't Give Temporary Permit
A temporary building
permit has been turn-
ed down by Pickering
Township Council.
A request by Mr.
Jones of the Yacht
Club for permission
to install a temporary
club house on the west
side of Frenchman's
Bay was rejected by
members of council
with regret.
Councillor Vic Rudik
said:
"This is a prestige
area...we want the best
development we can
get.
The club said it need-
ed some land in order
to qualify for achar-
ter. They want to build
in two years a perman-
ent building on the east
side of the Bay.
Deputy - reeve Ron
C patten said it was im-
possible for council to
give a temporary
building permit.
"We are anxious to
help you", he told the
delegation, and sug-
gested that they con-
centrate on building
the permanent struc-
ture.
Mr. Jones said that
It would take 11/2 yrs.
to get the new site on
the road.
Pickering's first indoor, all year round swim-
ming pool may be built in the near future at
the Woodlands Centennial School, Dunbarton.
A meeting of Township Council and trustees
of School Area No. 2 has seen preliminary
discussions of the details, although Council
would not declare itself "for the pool" for
sure.
Council will "investigate" the construction,
however, of a pool, 30 x 75 feet at this loca-
tion. Legal, engineering and other details are
to be brought to Council's attention. Council-
lors Rudik and Kruger advanced the motion
to begin.
Deputy -reeve Ron Chatten had the original
motion "to agree in principle to build the
pool" reduced to one of "investigating" be-
cause he was not convinced that this was the
right thing for Council to do.
Councillor Kruger asked if it was not "the
intent" to build the pool if all technical details
were in order. Mr. Chatten agreed to this in-
terpretation.
The school trustees led by Don Quick, pro-
vided much information for the use of the
Council.
School official, Ken Munroe, told of the system
adopted by the Borough of North York. He
said that North York had ten pools in use and
all had been financed initially by the council
of that area. He added that maintenance and
operation costs were divided between the

Let's Get The
Pool Started Now
An interesting meeting this week of the Picker-
ing Township Council and School Board Area
No. 2 has shown that an early start could be
made of a swimming pool at the Woodlands
Centennial School location in Dunbarton.
The school board has developed its school
site in a very convenient manner in order to
allow the attachment of an indoor pool to the
newly constructed school building. The trustees
of this public school board have done more than
their share to give recreational facilities to
Pickering and it is high time that the council
takes a positive stand forward to get this pool
underway.
We realize that some of the council members
have been so fixed on the goal of a total complex
of arena, auditorium and pool that they have
not been willing to give approval of a pool alone.
However, the cost of construction of a complex
building housing all of the facilities wanted
badly in Pickering is beyond the budget of C ouncil
this year. In view of that, it would seem that
at least one of the facilities should be given
speedy approval.
Councillors Vic Rudik and John Kruger have
come out in favour of the Woodlands pool and
Councillor Don Beer is apparently in favour,
but hoping to have the school board pay some of
the cost. Deputy -reeve Ron Chatten is not
convinced about financing and amount of use
this pool could get at this location, while
Reeve John Williams appears to be slowly
moving into favour with the idea. Councillor Art
King wants some action, but appears to be
more in favour with the financing being taken
by the school board.
The POST is in complete favour of the pool
at Woodlands School, and would suggest that
Council immediately approve of the construc-
tion and also agree to pay for the cost of con-
struction. moth council and school board has
been given the figures of how the Borough
of North York has built ten pools in as many
years with complete cooperation of the board
of education and council in that municipality.
In North York. the Council finances the con-
struction and the school board provides the land
and auxiliary equipment at one of its high
schools. The program has been extremely suc-
cessful and we are told that it costs $4.95 per
hour to operate, maintain and finance each of
these pools, on the average. Surely with this
sort of knowledge the Council can come to
grips with the idea right away.
The main argument for the Council paying for
the pool is that it can apply for a grant of money
from the provincial authorities, whereas if the
school board finances the pool, it cannot get
a grant.
The school trustees of area No. 2 have a ten
acre school site at Woodlands School, they have
sewers and water on the site, they have shower
and change rooms near the outer wall of the
school, and the council has the money in its
budget to pay $175,000 for the pool.
As we see it, the summer program of swim-
ming by the school board has proven that swim-
ming is the No. 1 sport in Pickering and the
citizens want a pool for all year swimming.
With a fee for use of the pool to each swim-
mer, the council could easily pay for the pool
in any event.
So we say: Councillors get on with the job.
If there are no other objections to the con-
struction of the Woodlands Centennial School
pool, let's go!
The Great Dumping Ground
How would you like someone to use your front
lawn to dump empty bottles, cans, paper cups,
tissue and other refuse?
This is being done every day over thousandsof
miles of Ontario's resort and vacation land by
"couldn't -care -less" motorists and their fam-
ilies who treat the great outdoors as their great
dumping ground.
It isn't. Keeping our resort land clean and tidy
is just as important as looking after out own
property.
Department of Highways maintenance crews are
at work every day cleaning up the mess left
behind on Ontario's 13,000 miles of highways, and
In the Department's more than 1,700 roadside
picnic areas.
Boating & Speed
The wake created by thoughtless and incon-
siderate boat operators is the greatest man-
made hazard on Ontario waterways. This is
amply demonstrated every time you venture out
on heavily used waters during the summer
season.
The Ontario Safety League states that the
operators of larger, inboard powered boats of
the cabin -cruiser variety are the worst of-
fenders, and many of them fly burgees which
indicate they should know better.
It is just bad boating manners not to slow
down when meeting smaller craft on open
water, but when it is done in canals and
narrow buoyed channels it becomes an offence
under Canadian Law punishable by severe pen-
alties.
This bill alone adds up to about $750,000 a year,
and the cost is rapidly rising.
In an effort to reduce this unnecessary and un-
productive expenditure of tax dollars, and im-
prove the appearance of our countryside, the
Department has launched a highways anti -litter
campaign.
It is asking each and everyone to help.
Dad can help by not throwing his empty cigar-
ette pack out of the window.
Mom can help by seeing that he dosen't.
Junior can help by keeping his mouth shut and
seeing that all the rubbish goes into a litter
bS mple , isn't itl
The six mile an hour speed limit in canals
and buoyed channels has been established for a
very good reason. Any type of vessel either a
displacement or planing hull will not throw
a damaging wake travelling at this rate of speed.
Increase this speed to ten or twelve miles
per hour and even the average outboard of fifteen
or sixteen feet will throw a wake that will be
dangerous to canoes and small fishing boats.
Larger boats will usually throw a correspond-
ingly larger swell.
The Ontario Safety League strongly advises
voluntary observance of posted speed limits on
out waterways - backed up by strict enforce-
ment, where necessary - for the good of plea-
sure boating and the safety of small boat users.

finished garments
themselves were as
intricate as the stitch
designs, with differ-
ent panels front and
back. The cable and
rope designs signified
the unbreakable ropes
or lifelines of the
fisherman's little
boat, on which the
fisherman's life might
depend. Each family
created its own de-
signs, and as the child-
ren grew up and mar-
ried. they would adapt
and add new stitches to
the patterns to tell
their own story and
that of the villages
where they lived, so
that the sweater de-
sign became a very
individual mark of
identity... a poignant
fact which helped id-

The poetic Irish his-

council and school board, according to the
proportion of time used by each body.
Mr. Munroe said North York's Parks and
Recreation Dept. felt that the pools in the
borough was the "finest cooperation" between
the two bodies. He said that the pools are
utilized for 14 hours a day, and the sharing of
maintenance makes for the maximum effic-
iency.
He added that since 1958 the pools have been
used six days a week and also four hours on
Sunday. Cost of the North York pools was
said to be $4.95 per hour of use, such costs
covered capital outlay, maintenance and opera-
tion.
Councillor John Kruger said the utilization by
the schools of an adjacent pool was "good". He
felt that not only school area 2 students could
use the pool, but all in Pickering Township.
He said that the cost should therefore be spread
over the whole of the township.
"We have the land and I am coming around
to view this idea with favour" declared Mr.
Kruger. He added that he saw an "urgent
need" for the pool in view of the 5000 child-
ren who were getting involved in swimming.
"The time to do it is right now", Councillor
Kruger stated, and added, "if the municipality
does it, it is unfair to charge only school
area 2".
Going into the size of the pool, Councillor
Kruger said he felt that an Olympic sized
pool would go better in a future complex,
but he felt the need for a pool for school
children.
Councillor Vic Rudik added his approval of this
move. He said that an Olympic sized pool could
tie up the use of the pool during special training
times. He said that they would go a long way
before a site as accessible as Woodlands could
be found.
Councillor Don Kitchen was most concerned
about the recent legislation which would see
any large expenditure by the local school board,
assessed to Pickering Township taxpayers, even
after the county board system takes over next
year.
He felt that if the pool were built in two years'
time, it would be a definite advantage for the
county board to own the pool and its costs
could be spread over the whole county.
School trustee Don Quick said that he doubted
that Pickering could get the county to pick up
the tab.
Reeve Williams asked Mr. Quick if there was
any advantage to have it charged back later
when it could be conceivably placed in with
the arena. hall and pool arrangement and would
be a truly community project.
Mr. Quick said he saw no advantage at all. He
added that the school board did not want to
compete with any other program and he espec-
ially didn't want to comment on the arena
project. "We're suggesting that this (Wood-
lands Pool) could be the answer to two prob-
lems". he stated.
Don Quick pointed out the advantages of the
Woodlands Pool location. He said that it could
be hooked on to the school's present facilities,
including the water and sewers. He said that
Woodlands was in the centre of the school area
and added that "no matter where it is located,
nine -tenths would have to use cars to get to the
Pool. , .
Councillor Kitchen said that the pool should
have been put in by the High School Board and
he thought that that board was negligent in this
respect.
Don Quick said: "I find that interesting, but I
won't comment."
Councillor Art King asked the school trustees
"If council doesn't build it, would the board do

it anyway?"
Mr. Quick said he didn't "personally think so."
Mr. Kruger then said that this pool was possible
"now", and that by the time they got around to
the arena complex, a second pool could be in-
cluded.
Deputy -reeve Ron Chatten pointed out that the
meeting was not called to "do something speci-
fic" but his main concern was on the question
of finance and the amount of use which the pool
could get by people generally.
Mr. Munroe gave his view on how he thought
the pool could be used. He said that it would be
used from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. by school children,
with possibly all grade five youngsters in the
township coming for classes on how to swim.
Mr. Munroe said that older youngsters who could
not swim could also be involved in a learn -to -
swim program. He said that in suburban areas
of Metro, the learning to swim part of the pool
use was around 70 to 8057 of the time.
Reeve John Williams said that he had lived

use of it."
"I'm inclined to the view that this is the thing
to do", the reeve said. His only worry was that
the sewage system was adequate to handle the
pool.
Councillor Don Kitchen continued to worry about
the county board system and the pool. He said
that "we could end up with two pools."
"Why when Bay Ridges was built, there wasn't
a high school placed there," he asked.
He was answered by Don Quick who said that
it was "entirely due to bungling which allows
a high school board to operate separate from the
public school board."
Councillor King concluded that "unless this
council gets off its hands, it may never see a
complex."
Don Quick threw in: "Why not build the arena
next to the Woodlands School?"
The meeting was adjourned and the clerk was
.instructed to obtain the necessary reports as
soon as possible.

But it's gardening on a big scale. The gard-
eners have become landscape contractors
creating beautiful settings for factories, apart-
ment buildings, government offices and institu-
tions, universities, office blocks and even high-
ways.
Well over 5,000 people are employed in the
industry, which has an annual turnover of
more than $50,000,000, according to the Ont-
ario Landscape Contractors Association.
But the rapid growth of the industry has left
the landscape contractor short of skilled men
to direct and supervise this type of work.
As a result, a new community college course
to train middle -management personnel known
as landscape technicians has been established.
The two-year program, instituted at the urging
of the OLCA, will start this September at
Humber College of Applied Arts and Tech-
nology in Toronto.
Students taking the course have two things
going for them: They will be virtually assured
of well-paid summer jobs with landscape con-
tractors during the two-year study period, and
when they graduate, they'll be in line for
starting salaries of $6,000 a year with pros-
pects of earning $10,000 before too long.
The new course has openings for about 40
students with Grade 12 education. Mature stu-
dents over age 19 who have not passed Grade
12 may qualify if they meet certain requirements
related to work experience.
Glenn E. Peister of Kitchener, chairman of the
OLCA's education committee, said the course
is ideal for young men who like to work out-
doors and who are looking for positions of leader-
ship and responsibility in a growing industry.
Successful graduates will start work as super-
visor trainees in charge of individual projects.
They will learn how to direct work crews and
use imagination and creative skills in designing
and creating landscape plans.
The two-year program will provide students
with a knowledge of landscape construction
and design, cost estimating, growing and care
of trees, shrubs, plants, bulbs and flowers,
TAKE YOUR CAMERA FISHING
Through theear!y nmrning rr: <t.
a trout breaks the g:a„ <urfac.- -if
the lake lazily jumping after an
unsuspecting insect. The sun c,mmes
up slowly, and as the mist disap-
pears, you know you are in for a
good day of fishing.
The beauty of the outdoors and
the fun and excitement of a fishing
trip are a natural combination for
picture -taking. Perhaps you are
with a friend, or maybe you have
brought your son along on his first
fishing expedition. No matter what
the case. when you bring your
camera, the day is going to be filled
with great opportunities to use it
to its best advantage.
Today's instant loading movie
and still cameras are so compact
they can be carried in your jacket
pocket. Loading is simple too, be-
cause you an load these cameras
even in the brightest sunlight with-
out having to worry about fogging
the film.
With your camera handy, you
an even catch that big one that
got away. All it calls for is a bit
of guesswork and a quick camera
finger. If your companion hooks a
big one, reel in your line and grab
your camera. Then wait until the
fish is played close to the boat, and
try to guess where it will break the
water next. When it leaps into the
air ... CLICK .. , and you've got
your photo.
With a movie camera the whole
routine is much simpler: all you
have to do is point your camera
and shoot. But don't forget to grab
the landing net when your partner
needs a hand or the fish may swim
away to he caught another i:r.: .. .
by another camera
%Vhen you take a picture of your
catch it can mean so much more
when you follow fewsimple rules.
First, it is always a good idea to
place your fish in a natural setting
such as a clump of grass or reeds,
then try to emphasize the length
and girth of the fish by shooting
the picture from the head to the
tail along the length of the body.
In a lot of cases, a ruler or some
other famil iar item is placed beside
the tisk to give an idea of the size
of the fish. Another good idea is to
take the picture as soon after you
catch the fish as possible, other-
wise the natural color fades.
If you have a movie camera,
you'll want to tell the whole story
of your trip in sequence beginning
in the morning, anti ending as the
sun sets. You should include some
casting shots and try to capture
the excitement of playing a big
one. And don't forget the outdoors
all around you. Be ready for the
unexpected; a deer coming to the
lake for an early morning drink,
for example, is something that an
be remembered best on color film.
With pictures of your fishing
adventures, you won't have to wave
your arms like a gym instructor
when you are swapping fish tales
with your friends, just pull out
your pictures and they will get the
idea. But remember, if you don't
put a ruler or similar object beside
the fish when you take the pictures,
then it will be hard to figure out
just how big the fish is, and you
wouldn't want to leave your friends
guessing, would you'
$62.2 Million Increase
Record Metro Boom
Mstro Toronto is experiencing the greatest
building boom in its history, according to a
survey by The Toronto Real Estate Board
Research Department.
Building permits were issued in Toronto and
five Boroughs to allow $316,163,324 in con-
struction in the first six months of this year
compared to $253,973,270 in the corresponding
period of 1967. This is a gain of $62.2 million
or 24 percent.
Permits were issued in June for $52,497,638
against $42,748.87'11 in June last year.
The following is a comparison of construc-
tion activity in various Metro m lnicipalities this
year and last, with 1967 figures in brackets:
North York, $107,771,476($93,532,687); Toronto,
$85,824,413 ($63,975,410); Scarborough,
$64,887,224 ($50,635,077); Etobicoke, $41,
plus some training in engineering and basic
natural sciences.
In addition to job openings with landscape
contractors, graduates will find work with land-
scape architects, parks departments, conserva-
tion authorities, golf clubs, sod producers and
nurseries.
"There is a constant demand for middle -
management personnel in the landscaping in-
dustry," said Mr, Petster. "This course
offers young people a chance to get into a
field that is both lucrative and satisfying.'
Information about the course may be obtained
from Humber College, 3495 Lakeshore Blvd.
West, Toronto.
948.700 ($29,971,970); East York, $8,777,611
($9,834,482); and York, $6,953,900 ($6,023,644).
Residential construction in Metro increased
45 percent with permits issued to allow
15,198 housing starts of all types in six months
this year compared to 10,505 dwellings in the
January to June period of 1967.
Metro, which now enjoys the highest per
capita construction expenditures in the world,
is taking dead aim at such sprawling giants
as New York, Chicago and Los Angeles for the
title of "buildingest" city in the world.
Politicians and business leaders are confident
that a successful bid to bring the 1976 Summer
Olympics to Metro will make Toronto one of the
truly great cities of the world.
Empty Pockets
Among the many familiar and comfort-
able accoutrements of day-to-day living
now on the way out as a result of the
computer are the charming cheque and the
gracious greenback. Experts are calling
for a chequeless and cashless society
in which all transactions of a monitory
nature will be handled by those soulless
wonders with the electronic brains.
Maybeso, but they' 11 have to work fast.
What with taxes and the high cost of living,
cold cash is a pretty rare commodity.
What's left isn't likely to interest a well-

DOG DAYS
Right now we are in the midst of the August
doldrums. Lots of people are away and those
who aren't, wish they were. Kids are bored
and moms are tired of trying to decide what
to have for dinner when it's just too hot to
cook.
Well in a couple of weeks it will be September
and things will start popping in all directions.
Newcomers to West Rouge will be interested
to know we have enough activities to keep the
whole family busy all fall and winter.
Girls and boys can become Brownies, Guides,
Cubs, Scouts, Explorers or members of the
Boys' Brigade. There is an active Ladies
Club for moms and a Kiwanis Club for dads.
These are just a few suggestions. Next week
well mention several more.

Hello and Welcome to Jean and Peter Bolles
who recently moved to West Rouge and are
living on Brownfield Gardens.
CANOE NEWS
The first all -Ontario championship for canoe
clubs was held on Sat.. Aug. 3rd at Centre Island.
Ten clubs participated and Mississauga
dominated the event, taking by far the most
points. West Rouge placed fifth, beating Balmy

FUND RAISING FUN
A round of applause to three small girls who
found a way to have fun, provide pleasure for
others and at the same time raise money for
the Retarded Children's Fund.
Valda Chambers, Sandra Fleming and Barbara
Wooley, all of Rouge Hills Dr., organized a Back
Yard Carnival. Rides. fortune-telling, a fish-
pond and other attractions, costing only five f
cents each, were included, and provided an
afternoon's enjoyment for about 50 youngsters.
The money raised will be passed on to the
proper authorities.
Did someone say the kids are bored? What
kids? Where? Not in West Rouge!
The holiday week -end, recent heavy storms and s
the thoughtlessness of some boys, have all com- c
bined to delay progress on the school grounds. 2
Shortly after the running track was laid, boys on
bicycles, motor bikes and even cars, decided
to try it out. r
Please, fellas, keep off the track!( It is meant
for feet, not wheels. If you have nothing better g
to do, how about lending a hand to help complete
our playing field? It will be to your advantage
as the grounds will be available to all - for t
Ene proper uses.

SQUARE DANCE NEWS N:
by Mollie Elliot
Square dancing ap-
peals to all ages,
but with so much em-
phasis on youth these
days, it's a relief to
know that at least one
popular recreation
caters especially to
older -than -teens! An
amusing switch oc-
curred recently when
teen-agers decided to
take up modern square
dancing. During a staff
party at University of
Toronto School last
season, Jack and
Margery Van stone in-
troduced modern
square and round
dancing, - strictly
adult! A crowd of stu-
dent spectator gather-
ed and soon the re-
quests came: "This
looks like fun- why
can't we have square
dancing at our student
dances?" After some
urging by student lead-
ers, the Vanstones did
arrange for square
dancing at the next
school dance. Marg.
Hough, well-known
caller from Scar-
borough, directed the
squares and the Van -
stone's led rounds.
The result, as any
square dancer could
have foretold, was a
really swinging even-
ing and the kids said:
"This is terrific, -
let's do it again". John
Collins, one of the stu-
dent leaders said:
"Several students say
they've never had so
much fun at a school
dance".
There's little doubt
that, as the movement
grows, more and more
young couples will be-
come interested. Many
dancers feel that youth
and adult square danc-
ing should be kept sep-
arate with classes,
conventions, festivals
promoted for teens as
well as for adults, -
but not together! There
are already teen-age
and childrens' square
dance clubs in Belle-
ville, Ancaster. Wil-
lowdale, Oshawa, Bar-
rie and other com-
munities, and several
young callers are
rapidly becoming ex-
pert. We'd like to see
modern square danc-
ing in schools too. -at
the present time only
a smattering of old
time dancing is of-
fered. It would seem
that Canada's rational
dance should have
some part in recrea-
tion and physical ed-
ucation programs.
Jack and Margery
V anstone, who Intro-
duced modern square
dancing in U. of T.
School, are wellknown
round dance instruc-
tors who conduct clas-
ses in Islington. They
teach round dancing
(couple dancing) in
connection with square
dancing, around the
Toronto area and will
be on staff of the
Square Dance Festi-
val in Richmond, Vir-
ginnia, in October.
We understand that,
due to cancellations,
there are a few vac-
ancies in the Square

Report From Queen's Park
by Bill Newman, M.P.P. Ontario South
THE DEPARTMENT OF MUNICIPAL AFFAIRS
The most obvious and far reaching change
taking place in Ontario is the phenomenon of
urbanization. By 1980, 70170 of our people will
be living in cities with a population of over
100,000. Even more startling, the total urban
population of Ontario will almost double be-
tween now and 1980.
According to the Minister, urbanization pre-
sents us with a challenge so fundamental that it
will affect the quality and way of life of every
citizen in this province.
The Minister discussed some of the stresses
which appear at the municipal level and indicated
a few of the positive steps being taken by the
government to meet the local government needs
of today and tomorrow.
He said that the present municipal system in
Ontario is characterized by a large number of
relatively small units. In 1967, for example,
the average population of an Ontario munici-
pality was only 1,775 - and 270 municipalities
had a population of less than 1,000. Fully
one-third of all municipalities spent less than
$100,000 annually on municipal programmes.
These characteristics - small size and limited
financial resources - have placed considerable
stress upon our municipal system. The system
was designed to meet the needs of a rural society
and many of the assumptions on which the system
was based are no longer valid.
Some of the pressures facing municipalities
include:
(a) The lack of fiscal resources at the mun-
icipal level;
(b) Municipal inbalance in population and fin-
ancial resources;
(c) Urban growth has had serious effects on
the physical environment leading to problems
of air and water pollution and loss of land for
agricultural and recreational uses;
(d) Larger school units, health units, etc. all
tend to increase the fragmentation of local
government and weaken the key role of the
municipality.
As a result of these stresses, an increasing
awareness of the need to restructure our system
of municipal government has arisen. Several
suggestions for reform have resylted from the
following important studies:
(a) The report of the Select Committee on the
Municipal and related Acts;
(b) The report of the Ontario Committee on
Taxation;
(c) The reports of local government reviews
in the Ottawa -Carleton, Peel -Halton, Niagara
and Lakehead areas;
(d) The report of the Royal Commission on
Metropolitan Toronto;
(e) A study made by the Ontario Association of
C ounties;
(f) Various special studies undertaken by this
government, notably NITARTS, and other studies
and proposals such as the Economic Council of
Canada Review.
Four additional reviews are also under way:
The District of Muskoka,
The County of Waterloo,
rhe Hamilton -Burlington -Wentworth area,
and the Brant County area.
The Minister concluded by emphasizing the
need to proceed with care, since the action
taken now will be a major factor in deter-
mining the face of Ontario for several genera-
tions to come.
"We must be sure".he said, "that what we do
will result in municipal governments strong
enough to cope with the forces of change now
occuring, yet flexible enough to meet many
challenges which are not yet apparent. To do
this, we are evaluating policy alternatives in
detail to arrive at what John Stuart Mill called
`the best possible truth of the moment'."
PROROGATION OF THE SESSION
The first Session of Ontario's 28th Parliament
was prorogued by the Lieutenant -Governor on
July 23rd, 1968.

Bay Ridges News Highlights By Betty Cairns
Thanks go to Carmen Cramp for a job well
done on my column during a vacation with my
family in Scotland and Ireland. Perhaps I had
to do some "fast talking"Carmen, but it was
worth it. Thanks also go to the Alton family
for taking care of our lawn etc.
We had a wonderful vacation. The "hellos"
and seeing your parents again are wonderful,
but the "good-byes"are not so good.
This was friend husband's first trip home and
we went by Jet instead of ship. Fay and Steve
Wilson drove us to Malton and I was still
shaking when I went aboard the plane, but
once we were airborne it was not so bad. The
flight was smooth.
Nearing Prestwick International Airport, you
start dropping fast from 33,000 feet and I was
so tense and hunj onto my seat so hard it's
a wonder we weren t ejected. Finally we touched
down and brother Jim and his wife Sybil and
their daughter Karen greeted us.
in and the salty smell is wonderful, Portrush
and many other beauty spas.
Returning to Scotland, we visited Edinburgh
Castle, Stirling Castle, the border country, the
Highlands and all the Lochs. Then came time
to say "goodbye" which is always hard. My
brother and family drove us to the airport
and finally we boarded the BOAC Jet. No matter
how far you travel, it is good to get home and it
was nice to get back to Bay Ridges.
And now for some local news. Glad to hear that
Jackie Barker is recovering at home after her
stay in Ajax Hospital because of an appendectomy.

ing the cup won by
Branch 22 at the East

parade. For two
Scotsmen, it was a
thoughtful gesture.
Orillia Branch 34 is
to be complimented on
the warm welcome
they gave over 70 club
members from bran-
ches 22 and 42 when
they visited that dis-
trict in June. It is
wonderful to know
that you have friends
in so many distant
places. If Orillia or
any other Legion visits
us, we will be glad to
welcome them also.
Congratulations go to
President Frank Kane
and branch 42 Beaches
Legion on being asked
to lead the annual
Warrior's Day parade.

THE CAR BUSINESS
Think of the agencies and authorities who now
protect you whew you buy o used car. There is
the Better Business Bureau, Action Line, News-
papers' Code of Advertising Ethics, Diagnostic
Centres, Consumer Protection Legislation a n d
even a Used Car Dealers' Act.
By inference all this protection tends to down
grade the prestige and value of used cars and
because every driver is driving a used car his
investment could be impaired.
After selling thousands of good sound used cars
with very few serious complaints we can assure
you of complete satisfaction and freedom from
fear if you require dependable transportation for
a price between $200 and $2000.
