Q. I ran across the phrase .'dog whipper". What is it? C.H.
A. A dog whipper is a person who, in colonial times, was
hired to chase dogs out of church.
Q. Even before Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip were
married, they were related. How? G.R.
A. Their brood relation extends through the British and
Danish royal families. The English relationship began with
Queen Victoria ( queen from 1837-1901) . One d( her children
was Edward VII ( King, 1901-1910) whose son was George V
(King, 1910-1936). George V's son was George VI (King,
1936-1952) who was the father of Queen Elizabeth.
Queen Victoria also had a daughter, Princess Alice.
Princess Alice had a daughter, Princess Victoria, who also
had a daughter, Princess Alice. This latter Princess Alice
was the mother of Prince Philip.
The Danish relationship began with King Christian IX
(died 1906). His daughter, Alexandra, married English
King Edward VII and was, therefore, Queen Elizabeth's
great grandmother. Christian's son, King George I of
Greece, was the father of Prince Andrew of Greece, who
was the father of Prince Philip.
Q. During my lifetime, I've found that telephone operators
tend to be female. Has this always been so? V.I.
A. Actually, the very first full-time telephone operator was
George Willard Cox. He began working in January, 1878 for
the District Telephone Company in New Haven, Connec-
ticut. It was not until September, 1878 that the first full-time
female operator was hired.
It did not take long before telephone companies began
hiring females instead of males for the job, for it seems that
the females were not as quarrelsome as the males.

Heritage languages
by Bob Watson
There is great activity this week to celebrate what has
become "Heritage Week". In Scarborough the debate is on
about heritage language classes and some ethnic groups
are putting the pressure on local school trustees to give in
and join the rest of Metro by having more academic time
allocated to other languages than English and French.
Despite people like Luke Tao, president of the Federation
of Chinese Canadians of Scarborough, who claims that
"we're living in the 30s and 20s or the Victorian Age" if we
don't give in to having, presumably Chinese languages in
our schools, we might point out to Mr. Tao that Canada has
been absorbing incoming various races of people for a lot
longer than he has been around and newcomers to Canada
is not a new idea or event.
Let's get down to brass tacks. People come to Canada
because we are a country with freedom of speech and a
place where a person can work hard and enjoy the fruits of
his or her labour. But the country of Canada is English and
French speaking and it is not a "multi-lingual" country. A
lot of its citizens speak most of the world's languages and
that is great! But to expect the property taxpayers of these
areas to pay out more money so that some immigrant
parents can have their children educated in their original
mother tongue is not, in our opinion, proper public expense
and should not be on the agenda of a working school day.
For many years the German-speaking people of Scar-
borough have been using a collegiate to teach many of their
children to speak German. They did not ask for taxpayers'
money to teach the language but did it themselves in off
school hours. However. your writer took the German
language in classes at East York Collegiate batt in the 30s
where Greek and Latin classes were also available.
However. if we instituted all of the Immigrant languages
here nowthe casts could mount high and result in less atten-
tion to other important subjects - such as English, Which
most of our high school graduates haven't mastered well at
all. Our school system does not stress English grammar nor
spelling as well as it used to do.
We do not believe that racial incidents at schools will be
diminished in any Way by teaching many languages at the
schools. In fact, racial incidents, we believe, are less
among students than among adults outside of school.
We suggest that the Scarborough school trustees stick to
their guns and offer space in the schools for the immigrant
folks to use for their own language instruction, but do not
give in and load up our school day with many languages.
Our students are not competent enough in English, and in
our opinion. that is the highest priority.

Welcomes Input on Regulatory Reform
For the first time ever, the federal government has
presented a comprehensive plan for its regulatory inten-

The Department of the Envirocunent lists 65 conservation
and protection initiatives in the Federal Regulatory Plan

environment and I welcome public input on them," adds
Browes. The entire plan lists over 800 federal regulatory in-
itiatives planned for 1987 by 20 federal departments and
five independent regulatory agencies. Each initiative

Credit Card Ceilings
Reg Stackhouse, M.P. Scarborough West. reports that
currently 35 states in the U.S.A. have regulations that place
a ceiling on credit card interest rates.
He claims that these regulations should be of concern to
Canadian consumers, members of the media, and Parlia-
ment. Stackhouse feels that these practices in the U.S. war-
rant investigation.
M.P. Reg Stackhouse found that Arkansas has regula-
tions that state that finance charges cannot exceed 5%
above the federal discount rate. (A current ceiling of
10.500. Texas's interest ceiling on bank lending cards
ranges from 14% to 22% and changes each quarter based on
double the average 26 -week T -Bill rate for the three calen-
dar months ending one month prior to the calendar quarter.
(A current ceiling of 14.00%). Texas's interest ceiling on
retail cards ranges from 18% to 21%. IA current ceiling of
18%).
Representative rates in Canada presently are Visa 18.6;
Mastercard 21.0; Oil companies 24.0; and department
stores 28.8.
Althugh he prefers self-regulation by credit card issuers
he thinks that these American policies need to be taken into
account by Canadian authorities.

Page Newly Expanded Motor -Racing Facility
Shannonville Motorsport
Park has announced a
greatly expanded

Centennial Rouge United Church
by Julie Webb
In keeping with the
Valentine's theme, our ser-
mon topic on Sunday was
"Keeping
�gLove Alive".
Sanguin began by
speaking of romantic love,
and how it holds great
energy and power for brief
spaces in our lives.
However, soon we moved
away from the valentines,
and heard about the deeper
love of God, that begins
before our lives and runs
beyond them.
In reference to Scripture,
we saw how the Law of
Israel, and its associated
customs and rituals, had
effectively barred people
from feeling God's
presence. By Jesus' time, it
had locked God away, inac-
cessible to all but the most
obsessively holy men.
Jests' message was that
the Law was incomplete,
and had no meaning
without the Love of God. It
is there, running like a
stream beneath the surface
of our lives, waiting for us
to take a drink.
At the conclusion of wor-
ship service, we met as a
congregation, again, to
form a planning committee
that will report to
Presbytery in June. This
committee hopes to use the
questionnaires we com-
pleted to map out where
our church is going, and
what our plans and hopes
for it are.
Community luncheon
will be held Monday, in the
church hall. On Sat. Feb.
21st at 7:30 p.m. will be the
travelogue, "Around the
World in 79 days'. This
should be entertaining for
all. so come and join us.

cuit.
That short track remains
the same except for widen-
ing to an average of forty
feet, the same width as is
all of the new pavement.
Another track called the
"Fabi Short Track" was
built to the north of the
original facility, and is 2.23
km (1.38 miles) in length.
The new "Long Circuit"
combines the two short
tracks and totals 4.03 km
(2.5 miles), closely rivall-
ing Mosport's distance.
The main difference bet-
ween the Mosport and
Shannonville layouts is that
the owners of the latter
facility say that all of the
race -course can be seen
from the main grand-
stands, something impossi-
ble at Mosport because of
its many hills.
Shannonville remains a

WANT 10 APPEAL
YOUR ASSESSMENT?
You still have time to appeal your 1986 assessment if you
feel your home or business property has been Improperly
assessed.
Your assessment is important because the amount of
property tax you pay depends on it, in that the assessed
value of your property is multiplied by your municipal and
school mill rate to determine your 1987 property taxes.
Notices of Assessment have been mailed to property
owners and tenants whose assessments have changed
since last year. Open houses have been held in your area
to answer questions and amend assessment information
if necessary. Open house dates and locations were
announced in a previous advertisement.
The Assessment Roll has now been delivered to your
municipality for the purposes of calculating the amount of
tax you must pay on your property in 1987. FDr informa-
tion on your assessment, the Assessment Roll is now
available for review at your Municipal Office during regu-
lar business hours. If you feel your property has been
improperly assessed, and you have not yet made your
appeal known, you still have until February 26, 1987 to
deliver or mail an appeal to the Assessment Review
Board. And remember, even N you did not receive a
Notice of Assessment, you still have the right to
appeal.
Appeal deadline — February 26, 1987
The Assessment Review Board is an impartial body
reporting to the Attorney General of Ontario which pro-
vides you with an additional opportunity to have your
assessment reviewed if, in your opinion, it is not fair and
equitable with similar properties in your area. The Review
Board is more informal and relaxed than a regular court
of law. You may present your own case, retain a lawyer, or
ask a relative or friend to speak as your agent.
To help you in filing your appeal, Notice of Appeal forms
are available from the Assessment Review Board, your
Regional Assessment Office, or your Municipal Office. As
well, you can use the reverse side of a Notice of Assess-
ment or write a letter stating the property address and roll
number together with your reasons for appealing.
Appeals should be forwarded to the Regional Registrar of
the Assessment Review Board listed below.

Kicks Off With
Booklet
Many of today's children
live in homes where both
parents are working or
where only one parent is
present.
Children at times are left
unsupervised and must re-
ly on their own judgement
when making decisions.
..Preparing for Today'. is
a 32 -page activity booklet
designed for children to
work through with the
adults of their families.
The booklet will equip
children with the resources
they need to make deci-
sions in their daily lives,
and instill pride and self-
esteem that comes from
knowing what to do in
many confusing and often
dangerous situations.
Scouts Toronto has
adopted this booklet and
plans are well underway to
distribute 150.000 copies of
"Preparing for Today" to
every child between the
ages of seven and twelve.
All of the boards of
education in Metropolitan
Toronto are very suppor-
tive and will distribute the
booklets through their
schools.
The kick-off of this pro-
gram and distribution will
take place during Scout
Week, Feb. 15 to 22. It is
hoped that all of the
booklets will be distributed
on Tues. Feb. 17.

CANCER FACTS FOR
WOMEN 2
In our last Column, we
looked at some of the most
Common cancers in
women, bow to spot a
l ialproblemand, in
same cases, how to avoid
the risk altogether. Let's
now, continue our survey.
Remember, don't take
chances with your health.
U you notice something
unusual, see yaw doctor
right away.
The colorectal area con-
sists
oo-sists of two parts of the
large intestine. The colon is
the lower 5 to 6 feet of in-
tntine, sometimes called
the large bowel. The rec-
tum is the last 6 inches at
the end of the colon,
Wading to the oudside of the
body -
The causes of this type of
cancer have not all been
determined. However, a
balanced diet, low in fat
and high in green and
yellow vegetables, may
help protect you against
cancer in this area.
Many signs of colorectal
cancer are the same as
those caused by other in-
testinal conditions. For ex-
ample, bleeding frau the
rectum, persistent uwhges-
tion, a change in bowel
habits, or vague, dull or an-
noying abdominal pains.
They may not be due to
cancer, but it makes sense
to check them out with your
doctor just to make sure.
Cancer of the cervix ( the
neck of the uterus) is
detected by a painless ex-
amination called the Pap
test. This simple method
also detects changes in the
cells of the cervix before
they become cancerous.
Discuss with your doctor
how often you should have
this test.
Lung cancer is largely
proventable because par-
tically all cases are linked
to cigarette smoking. If you
smoke the remedy is sim-
ple: quit. Research has
shown that after two or
three years, most of the
damage to the ex -smoker's
hmgs has been repaired
naturally: after 10 to 15
years, your lungs will be
almost as good as new.
Often the first symptom
noticed is a chronic cough.
which may cause blood to
appear in the sputum. In-
creasing anxxvits of mOctis
may develop and occa-
sionally fever and chest
pains can occur.
Many cancers can be
prevented. Protect
yourself by knowing the
warning signs. For -more
information contact your
local unit of the Canadian
Cancer Society or ask your
doctor or pharmacist.

From tune to time we are
asked what is the best or
Bill Watt's Worlds most enjoyable evening of
COtt"M Imm Pap a entertainment we have
: ever spent. Surprisingly
U.S. middle class. We
recall deciding to watch
this promising writer for
the real book that would
surely be forthcoming.
Wel, we've kept wat-
ching and it still hasn't ar-
rived. His latest, Cold Spr-
ing Harbor ( Doubleday )
might even be a retrograde
step. Ob. the feeling for the
speech patterns and
tbotaht processes of the
middle class are still there
but Mr. Yates' skill with
them is already manifest
and no longer excites.
What the reader now
wants is r adutioo of plot
line and the reader still
isn't getting it.
In Cold Spring Harbor we
are now in WW II rather
than just after it and our
hero, for want of a better
term, is trying to decide
whether to return to his
first wife or muddle
through with his second.
That's it friends, that's it.
To be fair, if you have not
read Richard Yates you
will probably enjoy the
book because his flair for
speech patterns and the
evocation of mood is indeed
masterful. Still, mood
pieces can satisfy for only
so long.
The Dictionary of Clichds
(Ballantine) is an in-
teresting little paperback
in which the origin of
popular expressions -
they're not all cliches In
fact - are explained by
author James Rogers.
We find it almost astoun-
ding, however, that it's felt
necessary to explain the
meanings of the chchds as
well as their origins.
Surely explanations are
not necessary for Filthy
Lucre, Go Haywire, Top
Drawer, Cut to the Quick
and Hot Stuff. Or are they?
Ol
it's not a ddficult question
for las to answer.
Without question it was a
wormer evening spent at
the CNE grandstand listen-
ing to and watching the
Red Army Chorus.
Now known as the Soviet
Army Chorus and Dance
FAsemble it is returning to
Toronto for three concerts
at Massey Hall. There will
be two at 6 and 9 p.m. next
Monday and one the follow-
ing evening at 6:30 p.m. We
shall not be surprised if a
second concert is announc-
ed for Tuesday before this
teaches print.
All thinking people
deplore everything that the
USSR stands for but one
should not throw out the
baby with the bath water.
This is entertainment of the
highest order, perhaps the
forest in the wnorid, and
should not be missed.
You will have read about
the appearance of Placulo
Domingo on Match 1st at
Maple Leaf Gardens under
the auspices of the Cana-
dian Opera Company. It
will be a grand occasion
and one, we suggest, for
"pulling out all the stops"
Why not then, consider at-
tending the gala benefit
dinner as well. The tickets
are a modest $50D and
you'll be supporting a fine
cause.
FAST EXIT:
Peter Noone appears at
the Imperial Room next
week and we've just receiv-

Industrial Mail Delivery...
by Gay Abbate
Scarborough's industrial
base could be significantly
hurt by the recent Canada
Post decision not to provide
door-to-door mail service
in new industrial areas
says a spokesman for the
Scarborough chapter of the
Urban Development In-
stitute.
Thor Eklund told a
meeting of Scarborough's
works and transportation
committee that the city will
lose industry if Canada
Post goes ahead with its
plans to service new areas
with community mail
boxes.
Eklund said the new
boxes were "a fiasco", and
were unsafe since the key
to the boxes could be easily
copied. He said businesses
depend on mail delivery for
cheques to keep operating
and fears the boxes will be
vandalized and the cheques
stolen.
Committee members
also expressed concern
about the maintenance of
the boxes, the litter they
will attract from junk mail
and snow removal to pro-
vide access to the boxes.
Controller Frank Faubert
said the boxes were
"aesthetic and mechanical
failures".
The committee decided
to bold a public meeting to
bear comments from the
community -at -large on the
new mail boxes, the first of
which will be installed in
Scarborough sometime this
year. The date for the
meeting has not yet been
set.
Canada Post's decision
applies to all new residen-
tial subdivisions, as well as
to all new industrial and
commercial developments.
Federal Budget Briefing
The federal budget and
all of its impact on Scar-
borough will be the topic as
business people enjoy con-
tinental breakfast in rooms
1 and 2 at the Scarborough
Civic Centre on Fri. Feb.
20th at 7:30 a.m.
Pauline Browes, MP
Scarborough Centre. is
hosting this ev^nt and
tickets at $3 each are
available by calling
751-7400.
Guest analysts will be
Henry Benoit, president of
the Scarborough Chamber

Much has been in the papers of late concerning the
closure of the Cadbury Choc elate Plant in Whitby. It is well
known that Cadbury's sold the plant to William Neilsen
Ltd., who in turn intends to close the operation, thereby put-
ting approximately 400 Cadbury employees out of work.
This is not an unusual occurrence by big business: taking
over the competition and putting them out of business - this
episode being one of the more effective means of achieving
this end. Unfortunately. it is not management of Cadbury's
that is hurt - it is the 400 employees who are given the shock-
ing news that they will no longer have steady employment
in the near future. When you are trying to support a family,
this news can be devastating.
In the end, a closure of this type affects each and every
one of tis since it means more Canadians become
unemployed and, through no fault of their own, have to app-
ly for Unemployment Insurance benefits. It leaves a
modern, efficient operating plant empty and unused. This
doesn't appear to me to be proper business practice.
This scenario truly demonstrates the need for effective
competition regulations, and for this reason, this govern-
ment has already drafted and passed legislation that will
give consumers meaningful protection; protection for
businesses, particularly small businesses, from dominant
firms that abuse their market power. .
This government intended, by establishing the Canadian
Competition Tribunal, to have and create an office that
would solely review sales of this type. The Tribunal is
presently reviewing the Cadbury sale. The investigation
was initiated on Jan. 14th when the announcement was
made by William Neilsen's Ltd., and is in the preliminary
stages at the moment.

Report
from
Queen's
Park
By George Ashe, MPP Durham West
LAND SALE SUSPICIOUS!
The Ontario Provincial Police should broaden its in-
vestigation into the Town of Vaughan land sale to include
Minister of Colleges and Universities, Gregory Sorbara and
Municipal Affairs Minister, Bernard Grandrnaitre, accor-
ding to my colleague Phil Gillies, M.P.P. for Brantford.
Controversy surrounds the March, 1986, sale of 14 acres of
prime industrial land in Vaughan. The land was not put out
to tender but sold privately for $2.75 million - with only a
$10,000 deposit - against the advice of town staff. Pro-
gressive Conservatives questioned the sale in the
Legislature in November and it was Gillies who made
public the O.P.P. investigation.
As many may have read in the daily papers, the O.P.P.
have now searched the homes and offices of two local coun-
cillors and two area businessmen and seized numerous
documents.
Recently, Gillies alleged that Sorbara, the local M.P.P.,
was aware of the controversial land deal as early as last
April. but failed to inform the appropriate officials.
Sorbara claims that his staff informed the Minister of
Municipal Affairs of the concern at the earliest possible
date, yet Grandmaitre, the minister in question, denies
having heard from Sorbara at that time.
Is this going to be another instance where taxpayers, in
this case Vaughan taxpayers, are going to be npped-ofr.'
The drama continues as the policy investigation continues!
Investment In The Arts
A $10 million program to
belp arts groups reduce
their deficits has
stimulated a round of im-
aginative fundraising
across the province.
Since June, when the pro-
gram was announced. the
Ministry of Citizenship and
Culture has approved 119
applications committing
$5.140,000 in matching
funds.
It is reviewing proposals
from another 16 companies
for a further $2,630,000.
The program runs over
three of the arts com-
pan. Is fiscal years. It
matches one-to-one every
fundraising dollar received
above the average level
raised in the community.
Money given by new cor-
porate sponsors is matched
two-for-one.
Investment in the Arts
requires arts groups to in-
vest money raised for the
program in endowment
funds, from which they
draw interest.
Ministry money is
available to reduce their
accumulated deficits or to
supplement endowment
funds.
Ontario -based arts
organizations are eligible
for the program if they are
more than three years old,
have operating budgets of
$75,000 or more, and
receive support from the
Ontario Arts Council.
Metro Toronto organiza-
tions receiving funding to
