You will find others who experienced similar problems, salved them or simply survived them. At the present time, there are more than 200,000 single parent families in Ontario with responsibility for 251,000 dependent children under the age of 18. The family is critical; this has been said so often. The family is changing, this is evident. Plan to attend this can- fereace on Sept. 12.

Praise doesn't seem to be given enough these days, so here is the start of a new weekly column in our paper. This week we wish to give "Hats Off" to the Recreation and Parks Dept. of Scarborough and its staff, who made a super effort during the month of August. Our observation showed that many key employees worked long hours to keep the borough's recreation facilities in great shape for the Scarborough -Indianapolis Peace Games with some 2000 athletes, the Canadian Games for the Physically Disabled, the Canadian Ladies' Senior Soft- ball Championship and the Girls' Robbie Tournament. Congratulations and keep up the good work, recreation employees of the Borough of Scarborough. ------ Record House Sales Despite the summer climb of interest rates to a record level, the residential resale market in the Metro region has seen 22.892 buyers through the Muiltiple Listing Service make a total commitment of just over $2 billion in the first eight monts of 1981. In eight months last year 16,154 MLS house sales totalled $1.22 billion. The 27,612 sales of all types of property through MLS in eight months this year totalled $2.57 billion, up from $1.5 billion for 19.095 sales in eight months last year. The fact that March, April, February and May were the four biggest months in Board history is the main reason for the wide dif- ference in eight-month totals. ..The continued strength of the resale condominium market has helped greatly to keep buyer activity reasonably good throughout the summer holiday period," Real Estate Board President Sadie Moranis said. "With more people returning to the city in late August. some brokers have been noticing an improved response to their advertising in the past week. "Fortunatelty many vendors are prepared to assist buyers by taking back mortgages at less than prevailing rates. and this will continue to be a factor in the fall when, I am confi- dent, we will see an increase in market activity. "In view of the difficult) created by this year's interest rate increases for owners renegotiating mortgages, buyers have been quite rightly deciding this stammer not to assume greater financial commitments than they can carry. Resale condomuuumLs are continuing to provide an entry in- to home ownership at relatively modest prices. Con- dominium sales figures confine to be impressive. ---------------------- Set Own Pay A committee made up of school trustees, parents and Ministry of Education officials. appointed to examine the role of school trustees, has recommended that trustees be allowed to set their own remuneration. The recommenda- tion is contained in the committee's report which was released last week as a discussion paper by Education Minister Dr. Bette Stephenson. A school trustee's maximum remuneration is now set by legislation and ranges from $100 a month to $600 a month depending upon the number of pupils within the board's jurisdiction. sdiction. The committee recommends a base amount of $400 a month with each board being free to establish additional amounts. The $400 minimum would be paid through a com- bination of provincial grant and local taxes as at present with any remuneration in excess of the minimum to be determined by each board and paid entirely from local taxes. The 12 -member committee, which was formed in February of this year, was composed of members of trustee associations and the Ontario School Trustees' Council, parent groups and Ministry officials. The review was one which the Ministry's long-range planning document. "Issues and Directions", released in June 1980, said would be done. In addition to trustee remuneration. the report deals with qualifications of trustee candidates, the function of the trustee, and parental involvement in school gover- nance matters. The committee supported existing legislation which pro- hibits a school board employee from running for trustee of the board by which he she is employed. The committee concluded that a school board employee should continue to be allowed to run for a board other than that by which he she is employed but only if such an employee obtains a leave -of -absence without pay to run and remains on leave - of -absence while a trustee.

The food was great (those shishkabobs! ), cocktails were free flowing and the remarks by the speakers were brief and concise. President David Mintz could well serve as an ex- ample of executive brevity and Program Director Bill Stewart beautifully .presented the pilaus of this most enterprising network. Because of the baseball strike earlier in the season, October will be virturally "wall to wall baseball" but after that, the regular pro- gramming will proceed.

Scien- tific proof is now at hand and presented in the beautifully written book The Secret Life Of The Un- born Child (Coffin). The auther Thorns Verny M.D. is a psychriatrist in private practice who earned his doctorate at the University of Toronto. He has taught at Harvard, York and U. of T. He was the founder of the Centre for Psychotherapy and Educa- tion in Toronto and he lec- tures extensively throughout Europe and North America on the un- born child. We believe be can be considered the foremost general expert in this exciting "new" field of endeavour. The book explains that as Early as 25 weeks a fetus Young People's Theatre Has Break -Even Season ..Young People's Theatre has ended its 6o 81 season in a breakeven position,.. Artistic Director Peter Moss announced. "It is the first time in the Centre's four-year history that the deficit has not increased." Due to increased fundrais- ing efforts this season and the introduction of Win- tario's Challenge Fund pro- gram, Young People's theatre will achieve a great reduction in its 5343,000 ac- cumulated deficit, attained over a three-year period at the rate of approximately $100,000 annually. The Challenge Fund will match $2 for every $1 rais- ed over a determined amount for the establish- ment of an endowment fund to reduce the deficit. Mr. Mass, appointed to Young People's Theatre last September, is very hopeful of totally eliminating YPT's deficit by 1983 through the Challenge Fund program, the new Department of Communications In- itiatives Program for deficit retirement and sound management prac- tices. will jump in time to the beat of an orchestra drum. When sweet or sour substances are introduced into the amniotic fluid, the fetus responds by increas- ed sucking or grimacing. The unborn child dislikes rock music proving that it has inborn good taste (Sorry, but that couldn't be resisted) . As well. the rare of the father in relationship to the fetus has been overlooked until now. A caring and loving father can make his presence felt to the fetus almost as intensively as can the mother. One could go on with ex- amples but we believe the few already given should suffice to make the point that this book is a virtual must for all pregnant woman or any who are planning to be parents. Fascinating and sometimes, frightening book. ON RECORD: If you were at The Forum last Friday you enjoyed the Ozark Mountain Daredevils. If YID? want to continue the enjoyment we recommend an album of their gretest hits titled Nuclear Fishin'. The music of the Daredevils is dfrfficult to classify. It's not Country and Western, neither is it Rock. It's certainly not Western Swing as it used to be played by Spade Cooley. Whatever it is, it's en- joyable and infectious. One supposes it could be said it has something for almost every popular musical taste. Anyway, the album contains such favorites as Leatherwood, Fly Away Home and Homemade Wine. Good album.

There are presently over 2,300 certified ambulance service attendants in Ontario and an overwhelming number of them have achieved Emergency Medical Care Attendant (EMCA) status. This training program involves knowledge of basic health sciences; emergency patient care; clinical hospital experience; cardiopulmonary resuscitation and full ambulance training. But Emergency Medical Care Attendant training is only part of the entire Emergency Health Care picture. On Thurs. Aug. 27 the Honourable Dennis Timbrell, Minister of Health, addressed the annual conference of the International, Rescue and Emergency Care Association. The development of a compemergency rescue and care system throughout the province was the subject of his address. In many Ontario communities, the Ministry of Health Savings also require inflation protection By Frank Kaplerh Inflation to most people is a painful matter of reaching deeper into the pocket on shopping day while walking away with lighter grocery bags. Or, it is the irritation of the mounting cost of filling up the gas tank. Most people tend to think of inflation as raising the prices of things they buy and try to protect themselves by changing buying habits. Other people attempt to insulate themselves from inflation by increasing their income - some work harder, others change jobs for higher wages, housewives work so there can be two incomes, and so on. Unfortunately, there is a tendency to overlook the effect of inflation on our savings. Certainly people living on pensions or other forms of savings accumulated years ago are uncomfortably aware of how the value of their savings and investments is deteriorating. But for most people, savings still are left -overs to be tucked away safely in a bank account or in Canada Savings Bonds. But just saving money isn't enough in this inflationary era. Those savings have to be employed in such a way that their value keeps pace with the inflation erosion. Keith Douglas, president of The Investment Funds Institute of Canada, recently pointed out: "To keep up with inflation, $1,000 invested five years ago would have had to grow to $1,534 today." That's a fairly substantial rise in value and yet it's just to stay even. Surely savings should earn a little something extra. Unknowingly, people can take substantial risks even when they put their savings into places traditionally con- sidered to be completely safe, such as a bank savings deposit. After allowing for inflation and taxes, the chances are that the amount saved in such a "risk-free" manner will be worth considerably less in purchasing power when the money is needed - and that's a risk we can't afford. It wasn't too long ago that 10% guaranteed certificates were considered attractive. How many people still have those certificates today when inflation is in the 12% range? Unfortunately, those people are behind 2% each year - and that's before they pay income taxes on the 10% interest they do earn. As Mr. Douglas observed: "More and more Canadians recognize the destructive impact of inflation and seek to invest their savings in something which has the prospect of growing in value." One recent piece of evidence of our developing wisdom on the effect of inflation on savings was the massive cash- ing -in of Canada Savings Bonds that forced the govern- ment to raise the interest rate. If it's necessary for the Bank of Canada to recognize what inflation does to savings, then the obvious action for individuals is to seek higher return on their investments. That's what the professionals who manage investment funds do every day. •0• This column is prepared by Frank Kaplan, a prominent writer on Canadian businests and finance, in association with the staff and information facilities of The Investment Funds Institute of Canada.

There are still some positions open for coaches, executive members and ladies' auxiliary. by George Ashe, MPP Durham West depends on volunteer ambulance attendants to provide pre- hospital emergency care. These volunteers are trained in first aid, cardiopulmonary resuscitation, patient care and rescue techniques. Without their dedication, many On- tanans would be unable to depend upon the comprehensive emergency care which is now readily available. Recently the Ministry of Health expanded the Northern Ontario air ambulance service by strategically locating four specially equipped aircraft to effectively serve the remote communities in northeastern and northwestern On- tario. Staff on board these air ambulances are "Medivacs„ wtw are familiar with awbourne emergency equiptnent and wilderness survival methods. The emergency care system which is presently operating within the province is efficient and effective, but is in a state of transition to accommodate the incredible growth which has occurred in Ontario. From 1975 to 1960 in Ontario, calls for ambulance se vices increased by more than 25%, while the population increas- ed by only 6%. This trod is expected to eamtim as the ag- ing sector of the population is*W to increase matically within the next fete decades placing addi- tional demands on emergency care services. The Ministry of Health has rerognixed the need for re- organization and has estatbliahed an Emergency Health Services Group to act for the bey in all emergency health matters. The Emergency Health Services Group, managed by Dr. Dennis Psutka, Executive Coadnator, will assume responsibility for the planning and development of a com- prdxasive program of emergency health services. The program includes a complete transportation and com- munications system and co-ordination of prehospital emergency care with initial hospital treatment. Guidelines will also be developed to establish plana of action for the Ministry of Health and regional emergency services. The Emergency Health Services Group will serve as a liaison between the federal and provincial agencies con- cerned with emergency health response systems. Thks Grouts will also be. for the training, cer- tification and the overall standards of ambulance atten- dants. It is this review which will enable the Ministry of Health to determine the role of "paramedic" or advanced life support services in the emergency care system. These are a few of the challenges which face the Ontario Ministry of Health in the next few years. The Ministry pians to move cautiously and learn from the experiences of other cities and jurisdictions. The end result of the Ministry of Health's investigation sbould enure that Emergency Health Care Services available to Ontariars continue to be among the forest in the world. �b Speaking To You il.s _ Scott Fennel N.P. Ontario Riding GO Transit has been making headlines an and off this sum- mer as Durham's regional and municipal politicians at- tempt to lobby the provincial and federal governments to extend GO Rail east from Pickering to Oshawa. Even though the issue is not a federal one, I've been follow- ing it closely for quite a while. A year ago I suggested the federal government could help, through its crown corpora- tion CN. Because of a combination of existing CN and CP track east of Pickering, local freight trains can be diverted from one track to the other to make room for GO trails dur- ing rush her periods all the way to Oshawa. It would well be that all that's required to extend GO Transit is the laying of a 40 meter spur line between the two tracks. Maybe I'm wrong. When I made the suggestion I merely asked that the idea be researched. Estimates for a full fledged eastern GO extension - which include laying new track - add up to $50 million. With that sort of tax money in- volved, every alternative should be considered. Unfortunately, it seems I asked too much. The provincial transportation ministry had to reject the idea because it couldn't get cooperation from CN. The federal transporattion ministry told me the whole thing was a provincial matter. Because the plan involves a con- siderable degree of co-ordination between private sector CP Rail and government owned CN Rail, politicians and bureaucrats at the federal level don't have the energy to implement the scheme. It's easier for federal Transport Minister Jean -Luc Pepin to mutter "provincial jurisdiction". This means provincial Transport Minister James Snow has to contemplate a full-scale GO Rail ser- vice. Naturally, he's wary. Since plain talking and dollar and cents arguments don't seem to work, I was only too happy to hear that Durham Regional Council passed a resoltulon last July condemning CN for its "apparent lack of co-operation - as it relates to commuter rail transit in Durham." Regional Chairman Gary Herrema went so far as to sug- gest that CN was deliberately making things difficult so that it could get GO to construct another track. It might end up that GO pays for the track and CN owns it. The intricacies of bureaucracy! The whole affair would be funny if it weren't for Durham Region desperately needing GO and the tax dollars which may be wasted
