What is the difference between a Pit Bull Terrier and a Staffordshire Terrier? I.. H. A. Staffordshire Terrier is a name given to a breed of dog after years of varus unofficial but descriptive names. Pit Bull Terrier was one of those descriptive references. Others included its original name Bull and Terrier dog or Half and Half and Pit Dog. When the in was brought to America frau Britain around 18M. it was known as the Pit Bull Ter- rier and, later, as the American Bull Terrier or Yankee Terrier. The Staffordshire Terrier is the result of the crossing of Bulldogs and Old English Terriers between 1800 and 1820. The cross was intended to produce a breed more adapted for pit fighting. Sought were the tenacity and courage of the Bulldog and the gameness and agility of the Terrier. Bull and bear baiting was a fashionable sport during the 16th and 17th centuries. Bulldogs were used heavily in this "sport... When the shine went off of bear baiting, pit dogs were matched against one another and sometimes against men. Serious dog breeders began to work on the Staffordshire in the late 1800's. However, it did not enter the show rung un- til 1935. Q. What is the origin of shaking the head to signal "yes.' and "no"? T. B. A. These signals are probably the result of a mother animal's attempt to feed her young. A mother tries to get her baby to accept food by attempting to put it in its mouth. If the baby does not want the food it will close its mouth and shake its head from side to side to avoid having the food forced in. From this motion we get the shaking of the head to say ..on,. Similarly, our nodding "yes" probably originates from the motion of young animals feeding. In this case the young animal is anxious to receive food. It pushes its head for- ward and opens its mouth in order to get the food. We im- itate the motion to say '.yes' Distillation kills and removes harmful bacteria, viruses, inorganic minerals and dangerous chemicals that make water unhealthy to drink.

Page 2 THE NEWS POST Wed. Dec. 17, 1986 Opinion a page for expression for you and us Now Hear This... by Bob Watson We trust that the Rt. Hon. Joe Clark. our illustrious Minister of External Affairs and promoter of killing South Africa by sanctions and economic pressure has been listen- ing the last few days to the leader of 6 million Zulus, Dr. Mangosuthu Buthelezi. He spoke to the Canadian Club while demonstrators out- side. most of whom have never lived in South Africa, shouted "a sellout to his people". Of course we would guess that the Anti -Apartheid Coalition of Toronto is composed of a great many "do-gooders" who are giving great assistance (and don't know it I to the Soviet Union's secret operations and goal which is to drive westerners ( meaning white peo- ple) out of Africa. so the Soviets can claim dominance over the whole continent instead of just most of it. Dr. Buthelezi is speaking as an African and who should know more about the situation than someone like him. Cer- tainly Joe Clark and Brian Mulroney seem to be oblivious of the communist threat to take over South Africa once the "commies" have control of the minds of the gullible people in that country. We agree with Dr. Buthelezi that Canada has made its point with sanctions, but for the good of the majority of black people in South Africa normal conditions of trade should be restored. Pressures within South Africa will sort out of the future into a more democratic system and we should let the people who live there make the decisions - not the people of Canada who know little of what is going on in that cou ntrv. New Rent Review The Ontario Legislature has passed landmark legislation creating a new system of rent review for the province. Housing Minister Alvin Curling said the Residential Rent Regulation Act is based on two goals: to improve protection for tenants and to encourage the development of new rental housing. Major features of the new legislation are: • the extension of anent review to cover all private rental units in Ontario: • the creation of a streamlined rent review process design- ed to be fast, friendly and efficient; • the establishment of a flexible rent review guideline. ad- justed annually to reflect changes in economic conditions; • the creation of a province -wide Rent Registry to record the maximum legal rent for all rental units in Ontario. • the creation of a Residential Rental Standards Board to ensure the proper maintenance of all rental properties. The Residential Rent Regulation Act will be phased in over a period of 60 days to ensure an orderly transition from the previous rent review process to the new system- Im- plementation of the new system will be completed by Mon. Feb. 2, 191:. Ontario's new rent review legislation is based upon a $uni- que agreement reached by a committee of landlord and te- nant leaders. The Rent Review Advisory Committee, com- posed of nine tenant and nine landlord leaders, spent four months reaching agreement on a system of rent review which was fair to both landlords and tenants. Their report was incorporated into the new legislation and formed the foundation for a new balanced system of rent review based upon the fair treatment of landlords and rent review protection for all tenants in Ontario. Until now, only buildings first rented prior to 1976 were covered by rent review, while buildings first rented after 1975 were ex- empt. The new legislation extends rent review to cover all private rental units in Ontario. As well, the new Act sets up a streamlined and simplified rent review process, with issues settled at the local level through a network of 21 rent review offices across the pro- vince. Under the new process. landlords and tenants will work with local office staff to resolve issues in an at- mosphere of conciliation and compromise. If a tenant or landlord is dissatisfied with the decision reached at the local level, an appeal may be made at no charge for a hearing before the new Rent Review Hearings Board. The new Act provides for a flexible rent review guideline which will be adjusted annually to reflect the change in cost of maintaining a typical well-run rental building. Continued failure by a landlord w carry out necessary repairs as ordered can result in the loss of a rent increase for units in the building. In addition, a new casts -no -longer -borne provision in the Act will reduce rent increases to reflect certain financing and capital costs which are no longer borne by a landlord.

Minaki Lodge Purchased Four Seasons Hotels Ltd. will purchase Minaki Lodge from the province for $4 million, announced the Hon. Jahn Eakins, Ontario Minister of Tourism and Recreation, in a statement to the Legislature. "It is my pleasure to make public the agreement we have reached with Four Seasons and to table the documents relating to the selection of a purchaser for the properties known as the Minaki Lodge Resort and the Minaki Develop- ment Corporation,., said Eakins. Four Seasons has guaranteed that it will continue to operate Minaki Lodge as a five-star destination resort. That guarantee and the company's financial stability were iden- tified by Eakins as key factors in its successful bid. In a statement to the Legislature, Eakins presented an exten- sive overview of the problems that have plagued that pro- vince's association with the resort since it was acquired by the government in 1974. "It has been clear that Minaki Lodge had to be sold," said Eakins. "The resort's long-term debt to the province cur- rently totals more than $37 million, and costs for the current year are expected to exceed another $1 million. The best estimate of the government funding required for Minaki to 1992 is at least $2 million, excluding major capital im- provements. Four Seasons have allocated $500,000 for capital improvements in 19137 alone." Off -Road Vehicles Minister of Transportation and Communications Ed Fulton, has announced that licensed trappers may now use all -terrain vehicles on most highways in Ontario as a result of an amendment to the Off -Road Vehicles Act. Licensed trappers will now be allowed to drive all -terrain vehicles along highways when using these vehicles to tend their traaines. "While operating an ATV on a highway, trappers will have to display a slow-moving sign on the rear of their vehi- cle; hold a valid driver's licence; wear an approved helmet; and, of course, have insurance," said Fulton. Continuing Education Grants The Ontario Ministry of Education has developed a new grant formula for school boards offering continuing educa- tion programs. For 19137 the fixed dollar amount for grant - eligible continuing education programs will be $),goo for each full-time equivalent pupil enrolled in the program. Continuing education courses eligible for assistance include adult credit courses, adult basic education, including English or French as a second language, citizenship and language instruction, adult basic literacy and numeracy and correspondence courses.

Auxiliary Gives $190,000 To Hospital Scarborough General Hospital's Auxiliary held its 29th Annual Meeting and Dinner at the Ramada Renaissance Hotel recently and presented a cheque in the amount of $190.000 to the hospital. Although the auxiliary exists primarily to provide service to the hospital and its patients, it was a proud and delighted Auxiliary President, Betty Peacock, who presented SIGH Ex- ecutive Director Allan Greve with the donation from their General Fund. These funds will make possible the purchase of 5 DRAGER Anaesthetic machines for the O.R. This machine is state-of- the-art technology which co-ordinates all system safety monitors. It is designed to provide more complete monitoring data while at the same time reducing potential hazards caused by false alarms. unco-ordinated warning signals and difficult to see readouts of individual monitors. Each machine costs about $38.000. Have A Fire Safe Christmas In the upconimg holiday Christmas season don't Id a happy time turn into a tragic time. Scarborough Fire Department Chief William E. Wretham urges the public to exercise care in the setting up and decorating of Christmas trees and draws your atten- tion to the following safety >q*. Don't purchase a tree that has dried out. A tree that has dried out cannot regain its moisture level. Test twigs and needles to see that they are not bnt- tie. Store the tree outside till it is used and if this is not possible recut the butt and keep immersed in water. When the tree is erected recut the butt diagonally, stand the tree in water and maintain water supply above the level of the cut. Set the tree up away from sources of heat like a fireplace, television set or beat duct. Be %ure the tree does not block access to doors or windows in the event of fire. Use of a fire retardant chemical spray on your tree is no substitute for butt immersion and is not recommended by this department. Check your strings of electric lights for frayed cords or damaged insula- tion which might cause short circuits. Remember to buy only lighting sets bearing the Canadian Stan- dards Association label and use non-flammable decora- tion. Switch off tree lights before leaving the home or going to bed. Do not allow discarded gift wrappings or other combustible materials under the tree. The Chief asks us to especially remember to keep an eye on little children at this time of the year. Never leave them alone for an instant no mat- ter how strong the tempta- tion to pay a short visit to a neighbour or to make a last minute purchase. On thanking the volunteers Executive Director Allan Greve com- mented, "The auxiliary is an integral part of our hospital. Each and every day the volunteers make a significant impact on the care of our patients." Speaking to the 300 guests, Board of Governors Chairman Gerry Phillips explained, "A key element in health care has always been the human touch and this past year the Auxiliary provided over 85,000 hours of cheerful and dedicated service in 52 areas of our hospital." A highlight of the evening was the presentation of the service awards. Four aux- iliary members received 25 year pins, five members received 20 year pins and two Junior Volunteers received 500 -hour pins. The new auxiliary ex- ecutive was sworn in and in -coming President Shirley Alexander relayed her hopes for the upcoming term to be just as rewar- ding. Receiving their 25 year pins were Noreen Ballan- tyne, Esther Richard, Sadie Richardson and Eleanor Smith. The 20 year pin went to Dorothy Ditta, Mich Harada, Ivy Hayward, Helen Nield and Charlotte Wojewodski. Ann Barnett, Norma Barnett, Eileen Bond, Rose Bowles, Yvonne Mackin- tosh, and Verna Sokolowski received their 15 year Chevron and Ingrid Muecke and Voula Michaelidis were awarded their junior volunteer 500 hour pin.

It worked well and I was still able to water the tree every day. My cat did not bother the pail d litter either.

Use two basins, in one place cold water with ice cubes, in the other use hot water with freshly squeez- ed juice from a lesson. Alternate between hot and cold for 15 minutes, soak- ing half a nunute in cold and one or two nunutes in the hot water. Follow with a vigorous alcohol rubdown or a brief soak in vinegar.

If the extension cord is not polarized, the slots will be too small to accept the wider blade.

GOOD KING WENCESLAS King Wenceslas looked out, On the Feast of Stephen, When the snow lay round about, Deep, and crisp, and even; Brightly shone the moon that night, Though the frost was cruel, When a poor man came in sight, Gathering winter fuel. "Hither, page, and stand by me, if thou know'st it, telling, Yonder peasant, who is he? Where and what his dwelling?" "Sire, he lives a good league hence, Underneath the mountain, Right against the forest fence, By Saint Agnes' fountain." "Bring me flesh, and bring me wine, Bring me pine -logs hither; Thou and I will see him dine. When we bear them thither," Page and monarch, forth they went Forth they went together; Through the rude wind's wild la- ment And the bitter weather. "Sire, the night is darker now, And the wind blows stronger; Fails my heart, I know not how; I can go no longer." "Mark my footsteps, my good page: Tread thou in them boldly; Thou shalt find the winter's rage Freeze thy blood less coldly." In his master's steps he trod, Where the snow lay dinted; Heat was int very sod Which the saint had printed. Therefore, Christian men, be sure Wealth or power possessing, Ye who now willlb ess the poor Shall yourselves fund blessing.

Small Firms Chafe At Labour Law Hobble .By Tony Carlson Friendly Manitoba, it says on the licence plates. And it's true, too, say small business owners, unless you're trying to run your own firm. For if you care to listen, Manitoba's small employers will tell you the province's labor legislation is a mite too friend- ly to organized labor and not friendly enough for the men and women who have their own assets on the line trying to de- velop successful enterprises. Their sentiments are shared across the country, but Manito- ba came out at the top of the heap (or at the bottom. depend- ing on your perspective) of a re- cent national poll asking em- ployers how labor laws and regulations affect them. A strong majority of 9,900 small firm operators contacted nationwide told the Canadian Federation of Independent Busi- ness that labor laws are biased in favor of unions, that too many records must be kept and for too lona and that in too many cam rulings are arbitrary. On average, seven out of 10 said the whole area of labor regulation is a serious concern for them. Even in Alberta. where respondents were least upset, more than 61 per cent reported problems. Manitobans racked up a nation -leading 239 pain points on labor, the CF1B study showed. Pain points are an in- dex of difficulty, arrived at by adding up the percentages of all those who have problem in specific areas and subtracting the percentages who have no problem. Quebec small businesses were not far behind, at 227, followed by Ontario (206), British Co- lumbia (204), Saskatchewan (198), Newfoundland (194), New Brunswick (180), Nova Scotia (174), Prince Edward Island (162) and Alberta (157). Manitobans also led the pack in their perception that laws are biased in favor of unions. There, just under 60 per cent felt that bias, compared to a na- tional average of 39 per cent. Business owners in Quebec (at 34 per cent) and Manitoba (at 32 per cent) also reported the most problems with arbitrary labor laws, made worse by the highest incidence of complaints over the inability to get clear rulings (22 and 19 per cent respectively). Those provinces, plus On- tario, British Columbia and Newfoundland were also well above the national average when it came to concern that la- bor inspectors save no con- sideration to the ability of a business to comply with labor regulations. All these numbers mean just one thing: from the perspective of small business, the labor cli- mate is poor. And that should be a worry to those who make the laws since it is small firms that are creating most of the new jobs. As far as CFIR is concerned, this study was just a fust step in order to assess the mood. The next hundred miles is reform. "It's all very well to design legisuuion to oil the friction be- tween big business and big unions," says Jim Bennett, CFIB's vice-president of legis- lative affairs. "Butt a lot of this stuff has no application for the small firms, and in fact hampers their abili- ty to create a viable business and provide jobs." Jobs. That is, after all, the bottom line for most of us, isn't it? ci ?e Local Improvement TAKE NOTICE THAT: 1.

He made everyone realize that there is humour in hockey play- ing as well as the serious "win or lose" approach. The guest speaker challenged his audience to do something good for others. He told how he had encouraged Terry Fox on his run across Canada. One of his stories related to a woman who had brain surgery and was in a coma. The nursing staff had left a TV set and radio playing in her room to help bring her back and it was Sittler's scoring his 1000th point be- ing heard on the television set which aroused this woman from her sleep and subsequently she was restored to normal life.

Top personal tax rates in Canada ate now about 60 per cent, which is about twice as high as the top American rate. Unless Canada can substantially cut top personal tax rates there will be a brain and investment drain to the US ( last year there was a net outflow of more than $5 billion in investment capital to the US). In a speech to the House of Commons on October 23, Finance Minister Michael Wilson recognized the problem when he said that "the -tax system should reinforce the ability of Canadians to compete internationally". He added that a system with high marginal rates does not make for the "most productive economic activity". The tax reforms he outlined contain good news and bad news. The good news is that be intends to substantially cut personal tax rates, which will stimulate innovation, risk- taking and result in more jobs for Canadians. The bad news is that he plans to shift the tax burden to higher business and sales taxes. In other words, the overall tax burden on Canadians will not be cut and in fact it may be raised. This is unwekome news to Canadian families which saw taxes rise 60 percent more than incomes from 1961 to 1983. One bright spot in this tax reform package, however. is that experience shows that when high tax rates are cut, tax revenue an actually increase from people in those brackets. This was the case in 1982 *ben the US cut its top DAVID SOMERVILLE tax rate from 70 to 50 per cent. A study by the US National Bureau of Economic research shows that taxpayers earning more than $200,000 increased their percentage of total taxes paid by 14 per cent or $600 million. Indeed, upper income individuals in the United States aro now paying the highest share of income taxes that they have paid in t l years. Also, after the state of California cut taxes through the famous Proposition 13, production rose along with employment and the state experienced a budgetary surplus. There is no mystery as to why this occurs. When taxes are cut people are encouraged to work hard, to innovate and to switch their money from tax shelters to productive investments. This incenses their incomes - which means they pay more income tax - and creates more jobs - Finance Minister Wilson may therefore find in that the federal government has more fiscal "elbow room" than it thought and that it may be able to reduce the overall tax burden in the near future. He took an important first step in recognizing that tax reform was needed and in announcing his intention to cut personal rates. However. he will have to follow through and cut the overall federal tax burden as well as government spending. The result will be more jobs for all Canadum which makes for not only good economics - but good politics.

Report from Queen's Park By George Ashe, MPP Durham West LIBERAL'S REDUCE EDUCATION SUPPORT At a time when our public schools should be receiving a greater share of our growing economy, the percentage of spending an our elementary and high schools is the lowest in sixteen years. Lad year provincial llama to the pub& school system equalled 46.6 percent of total spending on the system. the 1 WHU 11; Ii g estimates show a provincial StAlipart SU& to 44.9 percent of the total. Although in the last dec'tim they promised to radically tease support to public education, the Liberals have ac- tually reduced the provincial share. Since 1990 school boards have been ung meagre resources, because of the ravages of inflation and a scarcity of tax revenues. As a result a larger share of the burden of supporting our schools bas fallen on the shoulders of the local ratepayers. Prior to the recession of the early eighties, education made up 15.5 petrertt of the provincial budget in 1990-82. In their first budget the Liberals allowed provincial sup- port for education to drop to 11.3 percent, or 46.6 percent of total spading on the system. The spending forecasts for 1986.87 show a further erosion of support to 44.9 percent. On- tario deserves a first class public education system. Schools in every community don't have enough computers, uptodate boots or updated facilities they need to do their job effectively - I believe we should see increased provincial support for public e I tion. We should see a return of significant pro- vincial support for education, such as the sixty parent of total expenditures, as per by the Liberals just last year. This will give our school boards the resources they need to do their job effectively, as well as give an opportunity for local government to reduce the burden of taxation an local ratepayers. With our growing eoanomy, the worst should begin now to boost the provincial share of support for public education. We are fighting for a return to the kind of quality educa- tion Ontario has come to expect and deserve from their pablic schools. We are fighting for unproved special education needs. as well as access to the new technologies that our young people must master if they are to succeed in the workplace. We need increased provincial funding to our public school system. Election promises in 1985 have to date been just that. "Promises**. Action sbould replace those many U nkept promises.
