Help Students After Graduation The hardest decision a senior h%* school student must make is to decide what to do after gradua- tion. Ontario's universities. in a cooperative effort with the province's secondary schools, established the University Information Program (U.LP.) to help students explore university education - Representatives from each of the 15 Ontario Universities, Ryerson Polytedmical Institute and the Royal Military College visit every region of On- tario to provide first-hand information on programs of study, admission re- quirements, costs and financial aid, hous- ing residence. student life and campus visits. In some cases, attending the U.I.P. session will be a student's only opportunity to meet personally with representatives from cer- tain universities. It is a difficult decision students face in choosing postsecondary paths and the importance of making an educated choice. The U.I.P. is a step in the right direction for those seeking degree level education. The U.I.P. program in this area will be hosted by the Durham Board of Education at Eastdale CVI, 265 Harmony Rd.

On June 10, 1916, during World War I, two battalions of the 137th French Infantry took position in trenches on the slopes of a ravine near the Thiaumont farm north of Ver - dm. These troops were subjected to heavy artillery fire by the Germans throughout the 10th and 11th of June and lost more than half of their number. By the night of June 12th, their rifles being choked with earth, the French troops fixed bayonets and determined to fight hand -to -band to the last man. But when the Germans attacked in the morning the French had been buried alive by the explosion of artillery shells. Only the bayonets could be seen protnnding from the earth. This is now the famous Trench of Bayonets. It is estimated out of 1,000 men composing the two battalions, not more than 250 survived. The French government has erected a monument over the site to commemorate the heroism of the troops who per- mitted themselves to be buried alive rather than abandon their posts. Q. Why do all attendants in a wedding party dress alike? K. F. A. The wedding party originally was designed for the serious purpose of protecting the bride and groom from the curses of evil-wishers. All of the attendants would dress ex- actly like the bride or the groom so that the identity of the happy couple would be kept secret until they were safely married. Now, in less superstitious times, we retain dress- ing the attendants alike simply as a charming and artistic tradition to enhance a special occasion.

Oct. 7. 1987 Opinion a page for expression for you and us The Premier Is Wrong by Bob Watson The teachers' strike in Metro Toronto is carrying on for a ridiculously long time and we believe that Premier David Peterson is wrong in not terminating the strike. However• he seems to believe that this is nothing to do with him but is between the Metro School Board and the elementary teachers. However. the cost of carrying out the demands of the teachers would be another heavy education load on the pro- perty taxpayers of Metro• who already foot the highest percentage of school costs of anywhere in the province of Ontario. It is alright for Mr. Peterson to say to Metro to solve the strike but it is his government which determines that Metro public schools get only 5% grants from the pro- vincial treasury while other Ontario school boards get up to 90%. This completely out of line system of funding was cor- rupted by the former premier. William Davis, but Mr. Peterson has the power to unravel this problem for those of us in Metro Toronto who must share almost all of our educa- tion costs from property taxes. And. of course. the exten- sion of separate schools hasn't helped the funding problem either because even more provincial funds went out of the treasury. Most property taxpayers in Metro Toronto, we believe, are backing the school board's resistance to giving a lot of hour's for work preparation despite the fact that many school boards in Ontario already do so. From a normal pro- fessional point of view. to be paid for work preparation is almost laughable. No other profession gets such a return and most professionals work longer than 40 hours a week to care out their chores. However, we believe ve that the children of Metro Toronto deserve a classroom and a teacher to go to and if the two sides cannot reach an agreement, it is time that the Peter- son government take action. We wonder what David Peter- son would do if it were his children who were being held up for ransom' On Heritage Languages Dear Editor. Sept. I7, 196: is a sad day for the children of Scarborough. It is a sad day because the Scarborough Board of Trustees once agin, despite numerous requests from ca. h- muunity groups. and overwhelming evidence in favour a( Heritage Language instructions. still stuck to their guns and stubbornly denied the children of Scarborough a chance to be taught their own or another language and culture. Over 1000 letters had been sent to the School Board in sup- port of the Heritage Language Program. In the recant survey conducted by the Multicultural and Race Relations committee of Human Ser%wes of Scarborough. over 200 community associations, home and school and other parents teachers groups were asked for their positions on the Heritage Language Program. Only 27 responded of which 16 supported the program. In the school board meeting of Sept 17. 45 of the 59 speakers spoke in favour of the Heritage language Pro- gram. rogram. These supporters include educators. English teachers. local parents associations and ethrno-cultural groups. The Primary School and Secondary School Teacher Federations as well as the Primary School Principal Association also endorsed the Heritage Language Program an Weekends. One of the strongest support ironically comes from the Scarborough School Board's Policy Advisory Canumttee who prepared a draft policy on Ethnic Rela- tions, Race Relations and Multiculturalism which also recommends the Heritage Language Program and Black Cultural Heritage Program. We have nowgained the sup- port of 78 groups including community associations. parents groups, cultural organizations and all Scarborough M.P.Ps. As an insult to the concept of public bearing. it appears to me that most of the trustees who opposed the Heritage Language Program had their minds made up before the meeting, as can be seen from the fact that most of then rad frau their previously prepared statements before the vote. As an aside, the personal effect on me was immediate after the public hearing. My family was disturbed by in- sulting phone calls. If there was anything that this public hearing accomplished, it brought to surface some of the underlying feeling of bigotry among a small minority.

Bob's Notes Real Estate Experiencing Increases In Sales Residential real estate markets in most major Canadian centres are forecast to maintain strong levels of activity for the remainder of 1967. A healthy national economy and relatively moderate interest rates are the two major fac- tors influencing the year end forecast. '.Providing interest rates don't increase significantly. we expect a nine percent increase in the member of homes sold across Canada by the ed of the year." says Ozzie Jurocik, President. Royal LePage Residential Real Estate Services. ..knit sales in 1967 are forecast to reach 3o0,000 compared to 274,633 units in 1986- With the predicted 215,000 new hous- ing starts across Canada this year, the total number of both new and resale houses sold is forecast to reach 515,000 trots. Drinking In Canada by Douglas Newson A recent study from Statistics Canada indicates that there have been some important shifts in the patterns of alcohol consumption in Canada. Statistics Canada's General Social Survey, taken in the fall of 1985, indicates that two out of every three adult Canadians are "current drinkers" - that is, they Mink an alcoholic beverage at least once per month. Almost half of the adult population drinks at least once per week while one in five consume a minimum of seven drinks per week. A further 18 percent describe themselves as "occasional drinkers' while 10 percent never drink or are former drinkers. ................................................... chance to adopt the Heritage Language Program which will faster improved understanding and goodwill among the children of Scarborough. But it is most disheartening to see that by voting down the program, they Mew this chance. Luke Tao Chairman Multicultural and Race Relations Committee Human Services of Scarborough. Bob's Notes Income Erosion Reg Stackhouse, M.P. - Scarborough West, is urging the Canadian government to index the federal minimum wage. This wage is the minimum payable to anyone working under the federal jurisdiction, such as, railways, airlines, shipping, radio, and television. Since May, 1986, it has been $4. Stackhouse points out how in that time, the Consumer Price Index has risen at a rate four times the growth of the average Canadian industrial hourly wage. Indexing the minimum wage, he says. is a way of slowing down the ero- sion of low income workers' purchasing power. Indexing would mean that the minimum wage would be regularly increased according to growth in the C.P.I. This is the way protection against inflation is given Old Age Security Pensions, Canada Pensions, Public Service and Parliamentary Pensions. Most minimum wage workers come under provincial juridictions, but Stackhouse points out that the provinces often follow the lead set by the Cana- dian government. "What we start in Ottawa can spread across the country... 1988 Summer Employment The National Research Council is an internationally renowned Research and Development organization which operates in many science and engineering disciplines. Bob Hicks, M.P. for Scarborough East. says that oppor- tunities for Summer Employment in 1988 are available for students in science and engineering. Some positions also ex- ist in other disciplines. While positions are available in most major Canadian cities, the majority of employment opportunities are located in Ottawa. Students who expect to complete their year with a high academic standing and are returning to full time studies in the Fall of 1988 are invited to complete an NRC Application it Summer Employment and send it back, along with a -Py of }roux most recent transcript of marks, to Employ- ment Office, National Research Council, Ottawa, Ontario, K1A OR6. Applications are available at Career and Placement a(- fices on university campuses, and mint be received by the NRC no later than Nov. 20th. One -Person Household Most people who live alone knowthe frustration of grocery shopping and of finding packages of meat• douughrnuts, bread, and even cookies far too large for one Per'son's consumption- Although they may live and shop by themselves. these people are certainty not alone. According to the 1986 Cetthsuas of Population figures released by Statistics Canada, the one-person household is a growing trend. In fact. by 1986 their numbers have grown to 1.9 million, a 21 percent increase. The Colours Of War Remember the young men, Proud and strong, sacrificing thew youth For the country they love.

Bill Watt's Worlds AT THE OPERA: We don't wish to know if it happens at every perfor- mance but it did the night we attended the Canadian Opera Company produc- tion of Tristan and Isolde at The O'Keefe; many of the audience left at the end of the second act. Fools! Granted Tristan and Isolde, like most of Wagner's operas is long; 7 to 10 p.m. for the first two acts. Granted also that the first act is slow to the point of being turgid. The slowTiess, however, is to underlie the brooding and breeding passion of power that erupts in Act III. Tristan and Isolde is not a spectacle opera in the way which most think of Wagner. It's Eloise and Abelard. Guinevere and Lancelot. Dido and Leander and every other story of love that traasc�erds all social dicta and eventually death itself. One supposes it could be made to unfold against a backdrop of realistic spec- tacle but it's better presented as Wagner in- pari where one almost now aware or recall that he tended it and as presented Tails her by Director Lotfi Man sono ; a story revealed by its participants unhampered by un- necessary stage fripperty. As Isolde. Soptnia Larson is earthily regal rather like Andrew's Fergie. It seem- ed to us that her fine soprano voice was close W breaking in some messures i na 'ving but that could have been the passionate singing power that she delivers to the role. Her Isolde is not in the first blush of youth and accordingly, her passion is that of experience rather than expectation. William Johns' Tristan is also mature, a man at home in the worlds of war and diplomacy. He looks, or makes himself look hard, well tempered. His lyrically passionate and passionately lyrical love for Isolde - with or without love potions - is therefore. all the more heartwarming to possibly jaded au- diences. His voice is muchly agreeable and yet one feels he could be almost as effective without it but heaven forfend. Katherine Ciesinski might have been miscast as Bracigane. Isolde's con- fidante. She looms younger than her mistress - superb poitrine. slim legs. tiny waist - but that's altright. Unfortunately, she tries to. or has been directed to, act like an older woman. We found it off-putting to the though well intended as Melot, the kings nephew. Bass voices are always enjoyable but we prefer them in concert rather than opera. Siegfried Vogel lends the majesty of a superb bass instrument to the role of Marke, the cuckolded king but what a pity that he could not, or was not allowed to, display the fire of any man in such a situation. His principal recitative was pleasant to hear vocal- ly but boring to absorb emotionally and we found our attention wandering to the mood inducing sets of Designer Annelies Corrodi. Enough! The Play con- tinues to be the thing and Tristan umd Isolde con- tinues to be a fine opera. maybe even one of the bet- ter ones. It's not the best of Wagner but it's better than that of most composers. Enjoy it . . and don't leave at the end of Act II. IN PRINT: To most people H. G. Wells is a historian.

X. - masterful .masterful in its insight into the machinations of American or.for that mat- ter, world politics. Moreover, he has a seem- ing unique ability to take historical personages and present them as living be- ings with all their foibles as well as virtues. We had considered the trilogy as the possible high water mark of Gore Vidal's career but damme, if he hasn't surpassed himself with Lincoln (Ballantine). The story begins with Lincoln's arrival in Washington to take up his presidency and ends in the only way it can, with his assassination. In the in- tervening pages the reader meets in print all of the politicians and supposed statesmen he has read about previously and some others he has not. All of then however, become individuals. some likeable. some hateful. all interesting. LiocoLn himself towers over them all both literally and figuratively as the man who almost �y saved the Union while struggling with incompe tent army leaders. corrupt politicians and the devils of his own personal lite. Rare- ly have we read such a masterful treatment of the difficulties caused him by his unbalanced wife and the lass of his young son. Perhaps it is the passage of time but it also seems to us that Mr. Vaal is writing better as well. Oh. he's still guilty of florid prose on oc- casion but in the main he husbands his words well. An excellent boot and well recommended by us.

DINNER THEATRE: Gemini Dinner Theatre Productions was establish- ed in 1982 as a professional non -equity company rutin as a family business.

Wolves have an impor- tant and useful place in the chain of life. In the wild, they help keep herds healthy and within viable size limits by din mistiing the numbers of the sick and the young.

Corm?! a Now Is The Time For Furnace Maintenance The Canadian Gas Association (CGA) advises that now is the time to make certain your natural gas furnace is operating ef- ficiently so that you get maximum heat for your heating dollar throughout the winter months that lie ahead. Modern gas furnaces are precision -made and cer- tified by the CGA to con- form to government ap- proved performance and safety standards. As a general rule, "do it younselfers" should never tamper with the major components of their heating system such as burners or controls systems. Refer this type of service to your gas utility or qualified maintenance company. However, there are several minor maintenance jobs which consumers can, and should perform during the heating season to keep their fur- naces operating at peak ef- ficiency- Good housekeeping pays off in fuel savings, so keep the area arrxmd the fur - nate free from dust and dirt. It is important to clean or change furnace filters several times during the winter as heavily soiled or clogged filters reduce furnace efficiency and, in extreme cases, can cause the furnace to shut off. In addition to the filters, inspect the fan belt on the blower motor for signs of wear, and have it replaced if necessary. Vacuum the fan enclosure and lubricate the motor if recommended by the manufacturer in the owner's manual which ac- companies every furnace. Always turn the furnace power switch off before removing furnace panels to inspect this area. Make sure to replace all panels securely and turn furnace switch back on when you arE finished. The safe and efficient operation of heating systems depends on a pro- perly maintained venting system. Masonry chimneys without a clay or metal liner should be examined closely at least once a year for deterioration due to caxidemation from the pro- Dear John: .luhn Deere An%wer% Your Lawn anti Garden Wive-% Dear John: 1 live in a beautiful. wooded area.

To grow a lawn suc- cessfully in partial shade, select a shade -tolerant grass like red fescue. St. Augustine grass or roughstalk bluegrass. Also, choose trees that cast filtered shade, and don't A flew changes in regular lawn care maintenance will also help a partially shaded lawn to grow in thicker and greener. Mow a shaded lawn higher than usual so it can develop a deeper root system. Pre- vent revent overfertilizing by in- Jecting fertilizer near the base of trees rather than on the grass. Water deeply but infre- quently and only when the lawn really needs it. Deep, infrequent watering will allow grass plants to develop deep root systems. This will prevent the tree roots from robbing the lawn of nutrients. Sometimes the easiest solution to a shade problem is to prune the trees' lower branches. Pruning will allow filtered stmliaht to get to the grass, and help it become as green and healthy as your trees. Dear John: It seems to me grass ought to be able to be grown naturally. W'by does a lawn need fertilizer' Dear Nature Boy: Like domesticated animals, lawns won't survive without special care.

The grass plants in our yards are special varieties developed for characteristics that enhance the beauty or utili- ty of our home landscape. The grass in our yards grows closer together and is mowed frequently, so it needs to have a regular supply of food. A fall feeding is especial- ly important because grass plants need extra nutrients to help them survive the winter. Fertilizing will make a lawn thicker and greener. A dense, thick lawn makes it difficult for weeds to grow, since they have to compete with the grass for space. air and sunlight before they sprout. And a healthy. fertilized lawn is also less susceptible to pests and disease. Dear John: 1 love geraniums. but tbey're so expensive to bey every year. Is the. a way to save mooev on these beauties' Dear Cost Cutter: To end a love hate relationship with geraniums, you can grow the flowers from seed next year and save a lot of money. Geranium seeds have a tough otter surface. so they need to be cracked or softened to germinate. If the seeds aren't already cracked when you buy than, soak them for 24 hours in warm water before planting. Plant the seeds under greenhouse - litior>s bet- ween raid -January and ear- ly February -12 to 16 weeks before the set -out date. It takes about two or three weeks at an So degree F 126 degree C► soil temperature for geranium seeds to germinate. After germination, plant the seeds in a six-pack con- tainer - one seed per com- partment. The seedlings should be moved to larger contabefore bbeeiinglatet�n� into a garden or window box. Dear John: Wbat's the difference between a bulb and a corm' Dear Co infused: There are two major differences between a bulb and a corm. A corm has a bud at its tip and dies after reproduction at the end of one flowering season. Gladioluses and crocuses grow from corms. A bulb, on the other hand, contains an entire flower in embryonic form and con- tinues to live and blossom season after season. Daf- fodils and tulips are two ex- amples of bulbs.

When a chimney has an offset, a chimney specialist should be called to examine the flue passageway. Metal vents or plastic vents used on high efficien- cy gas furnaces require virtually no maintenance. An annual visual inspection to ensure that connections have not become dislodged however, is a good safeguard. If you turned off the pilot for the summer, follow the manufacturers' instruc- tions on or near the pilot control when relighting. After relighting, turn up the thermostat to make certain all burners are lit. Most new high efficiency gas furnaces utilize a spark ignition by simply turning up the furnace thermostat when it is in the warm posi- tion.

Clean or replace air filters regularly during the heating season. 3. At the start of the heating season. check blower motor fan belt, clean around the blower area and lubricate the motor if recomended by the manufac- turer. 4. Inspect masonry chimneys an- nually for debris, blockage and deteriora- tion. 5. Arrange furniture, rugs and drapes so that you do not block warm air or return air registers in your home. Have you ever wondered what difference there is between a bulb, a corm and a tuber? Bulbs, such as tulips and onions, are usually covered with a papery tunic and are com- posed of layers of scales that are actually modified leaves. If you cut one open in the fall, you will find next spring's flower in the centre, just waiting to emerge. Most bulbs become bigger from year to year. Corms look much like bulbs and usually have the same papery skin, conical shape and basal plate from which the roots grow. However. inside they hold solid stores of starch and nutrients and new stems and flowers appear from their apex, not from their core. Corms are annual structures and new ones are formed each year. Crocus and gladiolus are the best known corms. The potato gives the clearest picture of what a Paving Ltd. tuber is. Often oddly shaped. with no particular upside or downside - or only a depression to indicate the top - tubers produce roots from various spots on their Arrive alive' 267-8849 Don't Drink & Drive ile 3 CUSTOMDRAPERY * OPENING SALE surface and their shoots will often root, producing new tubers at a distance from the mother plant. Of course, the size you buy depends on your needs. Where an impressive floral display is important, such as in a show garden or for forcing, buy top sized bulbs. On the other hand, medium-sized bulbs are best for naturalizing. For hyacinths, always buy premium (medium sized) rather than superior stock for outdoor growing: superior bulbs produce such heavy flower stalks, they often break off at the base.

Ontuio Riding You may have read lately the refugee determination bill, bill C-84, which I last discussed in August, was passed in the House of Commons on Sept.14th, and was sent to the Senate for Royal Assent. Every Bill that is passed by the House of Commons must receive Royal Assent by the Senate before the Bill can become law. You are no doubt aware, the House of Commons was recalled specifically for the purpose of drafting and passing this Bill. There was an urgent need for the government to take immediate steps to deter the growing abuse of our refugee policies. We were acting on the wishes of the Cana- dian public, and we have followed through on this promise. One would think with the increasing demands of the Canadian public to resolve this matter, the Senate would have passed this bill without delay. Regrettably, this is not the case. Since bill C-84 reached the Senate, the Senate has con- tinually stalled the passage of the bill. The Senators decid- ed they should study the bill in Committee, therefore, the bill now sits in the Legal and Constitutional Affairs Com- mittee. The Senators are listening to the opinions of witnesses: the same witnesses who appeared before the Hose of Commons Employment and Immigration stan- ding committee. I fid it totally abhorrent for the Senate to deliberately stall a bill, which I can only assume they are doing as an exhibition in grandstanding. I cannot comprehend how an unelected body can purpose- ly delay the page of a piece of legislation: legislation which specifically follows the wishes of the Canadian public, notwithstanding the fact this exercise is a total waste of the taxpayers money. Can they genuinely feel there is support for their actions. or perhaps they do not are: political points is thew sole goal - Whatever they profess they are attemtpwg to achieve, I am totally disgusted and ashamed with this unacceptable treatment of the Parliamentary process and the wishes of an Canadians.
