Well never find a cure for muscular dystrophy wwith nickes and dimes...it's gang to take a iot of big dollar bills... In that brief statement, firefighters Capt. Sid Meringer and Capt. Don Thorn summed up the reasoning behind their ambitious plans to hold a $1-a- ticket Wtery throughout the province. The campaign aims to raise $200,000. There is only one prize: a 4 -bedroom, three -bathroom home decorated and broadloomed throughout; a brand new 74 Cheve le Mahvu luxury sedan parked in the double garage; and a $5,00014 x 26 -foot concrete pool ready to jimp into in the backyard. The house is located to a new Oshawa subdivision. "We expect the total prize package to be workth around $65,000 to $70,000 by the time the draw takes place on June 5th,1974," said Capt. Meringer. Tickets for the draw are being sold, province -wide, by the 6,500 professional firefighters and the some 4,000 volunteer firemen. "Canadian firelighters have been contributing to the Muscualr M ray Association of Canada for the last 20 years," stated Capt. erintger. "Mast of the time, in the past, however, we've colleceted donattions on a door-todoor basis. Many of us didn't like doing tltis..you know., it was kind of a begging bit; and I'm sure many people wondered - wrongly of course -- if the money ever got to the association." Executive director of the Muscular Dystrophy Association, Frank Murphy, stated: 'The nation's firefighters are attempting to raise $1 million for MD this year. I cannot express our gratitude deeply enough for the support these men give us. The firefighters of Oshawa really took a chance on this lottery of theirs. But, l know they only took the risk because they know the great need and cost of research and services to muscular systrophy victims." It is estimated that there are between 12,000 and 18,000 sufferers of muscular dystrophy in Canada. Lottery tickets may be bought by mailing you cheque or money order to: Oshawa Firefighters, Box 55, Oshawa, Ont. Muscular Systrophy patient David Siblock with the two veteran firefighters - Capt.

Moodie and Brittain regarding their proposed summer trailer park to be situated north of Highway 2 and west of Pickering Village. He stressed that the park would operate only from May 24th until Oct. 1st each year. The resolution before 4.320 Kingston Rd. west of Lawrence) L___284-4721 PH. 43 Council was to refuse the application on the grounds that the proposed camp was not compatible with adjacent existing dwellings. Mr. Simms, however, said that "if one looks at the abutting properties, it seems clear that the use we propose is compatible with them." He pointed out the park was small in scope, the land is aesthetically pleasing, and .A&W a Hearing Aids SCARBOROUGH Hearing Aid Centre 23 Eglinton Square 757-8453 there will be minimal nuisance to adjacent land owners. "There are not many campsites in the area, and those that do exist are more than fully used," he said.

I think we need this type of service and this park is definitely not an eyesore because you cannot even see it from the road. I move that this matter be deferred so that members of Council can go by and see what is ac- tually there." The matter was then deferred for one month. 4591;i4 34&A Call 289-0552 For —) Fast Home Service Morningside Shopping Centre West Hill Norm Cafik, Ontario riding's very active Member of Parlaiment, hosted an industrial seminar in Ajax last week and heard how local businessmen deal with their financing problems, The M.P. had a schedule of speakers who spoke on a variety of topics. Jack Tevlin, Secretary of Supply Administration at Ottawa, told the audience how to do business with the government and how to get on the supplier's list. W.D.S. Hendry, Deputy Chief of Guaranteed Loans said the Small Business Loans Act was loaning $84 million this year. Loans, however, actually come from the banks but come at a rate about two per cent lower than normal loans. Mr. Hendry, said that the loans are basically for the purchase of equipment and are not to be used for working capital. Ken Bolam, manager of the Oshawa branch of the In- dustrial Development Bank. told the 6o businessmen and women that IDB has 60 branches in Canada now, and was speeding up its approval system. He said that 77 percent of all loans were under $60,000 and the average rate of interest is now between 10 and 1I per cent. -Weft CWW hope that the IDB would be taken away from the Bank of Canada and placed under the Dept. of Industry.

".Couldn't we lock them up for four months or so," he asked. But Mr. Rrasells said that the re-trained workers must be free to mane. Another delegate asked if the Unemployment In- surance Commitosiion could supply "real live bodies which are interested in working." Tam Russell said Manpower had nothing to do with UIC. Pickering Mayor -elect George Ashe told the group that the seminars were of great benefit to the businesses and the com- munity. He said that Pickering had been the recipient of many projects - moclear plant. airport. new town site. He added: "As the business community goes. so goes the whole community."

This meeting was requested by CUPS to discuss the status of Union employees after Jan. 1st, 1974, at which time the Region of Durham comes into existence officially. Although Chairman Walter Beath pointed out this was to be merely a public relation meeting and that no agreements would be resulting, Council members still thought they should be allowed to attend. Councillor Mike Breaugh of Oshawa said that he "thought all members of Council were LOWEST PRI ES Paint& Wallpaper 4520 Kingston Rd. (At Morningsidej 282-8602 West Hi11 allowed to attend any meeting. Not to vote, but to attend." Councillor Allan Pilkey, also of Oshawa, added "Do elected people have the privilege to attend any meetings, or does an ad- ministrative type meeting exclude all members of Council?" Councillor Garnet Rickard replied that "we are now approaching a position in this Council of mistrust in the people to whom we delegate authority. CUPE respects their elected people. I ask now, in at] sincerity, do we have con- fidence in the people we have appointed to represent us?" Despite this question, an amendment introduced by Councillor Margaret Shaw of Oshawa was carried, wherby all members of Council were allowed to attend this meeting.

Postal Address - Box 111, Agincourt. Ont. Publisher - R.M. Watson TELEPHONE 284-1767 Opinion We Object Last week we wrote our opinion that the Hon. Tom Wells is wrong to legislate against teachers in 16 areas around On- tario in order to disallow their mass resignations. This week we wish to object to Metro Toronto school teachers leaving our children without instruction on Tuesday. We object to this move on the grounds that these teachers are violating their contracts, and we protest this treatment of our children. It is (wily a few months ago that the secondary school teachers were busy convincing us that they were concerned about the "quality of education". Then when contracts were being discussed, suddenly the impetus was on how much mote for salaries was to be obtained and how much work the teachers would have to do. So much for concern for the "quality of education." low the same teachers have deliberately left their students. some with scheduled tests. and paraded around Queen's Park The teachers are supposedly protesting the impending violation of their right to resign. In one grade seven classroom in North fork on Monday. the 12 -year-old students were given a 15 minute lecture by their teachers who explained her reason for deserting the students the follea•ing day. She said that she was. going to Queen's Park because she didn't want to teach 45 pupils in her classroom. (She has 31 row) We wish to protest this in- volvement of the youngsters in this teacher's feelings on a matter which is between the teachers and the government. The parents hared this teacher to instruct their children. not to provide a sounding board for her to propagandize the immature minds. Although the situation surrounding education is becoming very blurred to most of the public, we would warn parents to get involved in the education of their children now. or lose i heir rights to run the school system via their school trustees. Those teachers, who are very militant, have their sights set on controlling the decisions of school boards. Only a few days ago. Howard Moscoe. president of the North York Elementary Teachers. requested that his group be allocated a special chair at all local board meetings. He wants the chair reserved and be placed so that he or his representative can catch the eye of the school board chair- man. ti•x (wily that, he wants teacher representation on all committees of the school board. If these requests are granted, it is only a matter of time that the specially reserved chair will leave the audience area and be placed in the circle with the elected school trustees. The people of this area should get activated into educational discussions or lose all the marbles to the new breed of teachers who believe that they know more about running schools than the parents do 'Twas The Week Before Christmas... And all through the world, norhing but violence, protest and discontent was heard' Arab hijackers, have senselessly slaughtered innocent bystanders -- why? To get their way: The people in Britain face cold homes, low salaries, high prices and frustration -- why? Because Arabs want their way, and because labour unions in Britain are willing to acrifice the economic health of their country to gain extra pay and advantages for themselves. In Britain. Irish terrorists are busy sending letter bombs to various people hoping to force the British government into accepting the viewpoint that all of Ireland, regardless of the feelings of the Protestant North, should be combined into one state. Here we sit in prosperous Ontario, with no shortage of oil or gas, with a big surplus of electrical energy and our citizens generally better off than almost anyone else in the world. But this week thousands of school teachers broke their recently signed contracts to meet and protest Bill 274 leaving school children to fend for themselves. Why? To try and force the provincial government to change its mind about enforcing an arbitration settlement on 16 school areas outside of Metro Toronto.

The spectators were treated to an exhibition of good ringette from both teams. Pickering opened up a very quick three goal lead but Ajax fought back to open up a seven to four margin at the half. The last five minutes of this period were plaved without a whistle• a tribute to the players and referees in keeping the game moving. The teams traded goals in the second period unit] the last three minutes, when Pickering moved into the score to within one goal, with 30 seconds left. Ajax, however, hung on to win.

For A Happy And Fire Safe Christmas If home fire precautions are neglected during the coming holiday season a happy Christmas can turn into a family tragedy. Fire Chief David J. Forgie urges the public to exercise special care in the setting up and decoration of Christmas trees and draws your attention to the following points: 1. - Try and pick a fresh tree; 2. - Keep tree outdoors until just before Christmas Day; 3. - Before setting up tree cut one or two inches from butt. Make sure cut is on a slant; 4. - Set tree up with butt in container of water; S. - Do not block exits. o doors or windows). 6. - !Hake sure tree is away from sources of heat, such as fireplaces, radiator, stove or T.V. set; 7. - Never use strings of lights that have frayed cords or damaged insulation. ( Never use candles) 8. - Never use strings of electric lights on metallic trees. (Use floodlights away from the tree); 9. - Children may change bulbs - make sure Mom or Dad have unplugged bulbs first; to. - Switch off tree lights before going to bed or when leaving home: 11. - On Christmas morning, don't let wrapping paper from the opened presents pile up around the tree. Put them in a container and place it outdoors; and 12.. No matter how important a last minute purchase, never leave children alone in the house at anytime.

A tour of duty in Canada in- fluenced his decision to take up permanent residence after the war, with op- portunities to spend ex- tended periods with Indians in the northern forest and with Eskimos in the high Arctic researching wilderness and Arctic survival techniques. Author of "Wild ernes Survival", an excellent and well illustrated text on woodland and wilderness living, and co- author with his wife of two more books "The Edible Wild" and "Wilderness Cookbook", Berglund's range pnd detail of knowkdge is phenomenal. He has most likely per- sonally researched and experienced all the answers to the questions you have wanted to know for years only didn't know who to ask. Campbellford is a pretty little Trent River town on Highway 30 only 18 miles from the swish and rush of the multi -land Macdonald - Cartier Freeway. Tall timber country it is not, but the Berglund's 130 -acre farm is ideally suited for their new wilderness survival school currently under construction and scheduled for use next spring. The farm has i remained untilled for 75 years and has reverted to the point where nearly all the edible plants and tree species are available for study and field use. The school has operated on a correspondence basis with a period of bush trials and instruction in previous years, but, with the new lecture halls available this year, field training will be extended to two five-day periods in the out-of-doors. The initial session will be in groups of 10 under an in- dividual instructor on a section of the Campbellford farmThe graduating exercise is a second five-day period of wilderness isolation in the lake and bush country north of North Bay. Equipped with a knife, hatchet and simple survival kit. the student is assigned to a one -square -mile area and must fend for himself. This includes building a portable shelter, obtaining food, coping with insects and making the all important ;psycbp►og�cal.adjustuuletu tp being alone in the wilder- ness. Each student is also equipped with a small battery powered "beeper.. beacon to summon aid in the event of a serious accident or The ever increasing trend towards outdoor recreation, including year-round wilderness travel, has Berglund's National Wilderness Survival school playing an important role in today's need for outdoor education. The students are almost evenly divided between male and female, with women being regarded as the more progressive learners. The laches are uninhibited about asking questions where male pride in some instances causes the gents to fake knowledge they don't have, which may create problems later. Wilderness survival graduates to date range from a youngster of six year to an 84 -year-old woman who, as Bert recalled, '.not only enjoyed the course but was a particularly good student". Why do you travel in ever diminishing circles in forested country? .... why do some people starve and sometimes perish in the midst of plenty? ... why do most Eskimos, who thrive in the coldest environment on earth, sleep rude? Common sense answers all, providing you have taken the trouble to acquire the knowledge to base it on. The first step may be the 17 - lecture home study course followed by he 10 -day option field tests. If you are planning, like thousands of other modern day voyageurs. to forsake the beaten paths and travel the Candian wilderness on a future holiday, the in- tervenirrg months should be spent in preparation.

Dec. 20th, 1973 M.P. Norm Cafik Gives His Views On The Energy Situation Mr. Norman A. Cafik (Parliamentary Secretary to Minister of National Health and Welfare) : Mr. Speaker, I was delighted today by the statement made by the Prime Minister of Canada (Mr. Trudeau) in which he clearly illustrated (that the government intends, in a very forceful and dramatic way to exercise control over the development of Our natural resources and to see that the corporations, multinational orothetwise, act in such a way as to maximize protection for the consumer, particularly the consumer of home heating oil products. Bill C -?3 clearly restates our desire to have complete cod.rdwzeren urgency supply allocations inCanada and is a welcome move. It is an emergency step to deal with the emergency sitim ion in which we now find ourselves, but if passed by puibiment it will be available as a permanent piece of legislation for use in any other such emergencies in times to come. The broad powers provided under the bill are necessary in order to protect our economy, the essential services of the country, and more particularly the oil con- sumer in terms of supply and prices. It willaho protect something that is very close to the hearts and mods of all Canadians, in that the independent distributors of petroleum products can now be assured that they wiY not be squeezed out of the marketplace by the multinational corporations who may have a vested intrest in serving themselves rather than the independent dealers with whom they were happy to deal in the past. Through this bill we are also ensuring the best use of our distribution system -ship, rail, truck and pipeline -to see that the private sector behaves in a good corporate way in meeting the national objective of getting energy supplies to all Canadians and to the essential public services which require them. Of course, at a time of crisis and high demand we must true the public against what might be termed corporate greed, against the self-interest of the multinationals who can arbitrarily dislocate the economy and national well-being of our citizens at large. This crisis has provided Canada with a tremendous opportunity to act now and dramatically exert national control over multinational corporations to make sure they serve the best interest at all Canadians, and to enure that for years to conte. for centuries to come. this country will be self- suffWwat in energy supplies. The Prime Minister spoke not only in terms of oil supplies but in terms of delivery stystems. However Bill C-236, now before the House is directed more toward delivery than supply- There is no question that supplies are a problem of a worldwide nature. and in particular for developing countries. It was interesting that the tan. member for Prince Edward - Hastings (Mr. Hees) did not seem to recognize this point. and I gather that the hon. member for Calgary North (Mr. Woollhams) does not recognize it either. The hon. member, speaking of supplies. talked about the Syncrude project and indicated that as a result of the Americans going forward with their shale deveiopment projed in the United States this might well lessen the value of our tar sands unless we develop them rather quickly. To me, this implies a feeling on his part that once these two projects are developed we will have a world surplus of oil then and in the future. That flies directly in the face of the well known fact that, with the passage of time, the world will still be in an energy ca and alternative energy supplies must be developed_ I do not know how the Conservatives can have it both ways, one talking about the tremendous energy crisis and another saying we had better hurray up the development of tar sanbecause, if we do not, the Americans will ds with Heir shale project and therefore we will not have anything worth while in Canada. That does not seem to be at all consistent. Another matter with respect to the rather nebulous position of the Conservative Party in regard to this over-all problem is the fact that during the 1972 election campaign, and af- terwards. I was under the impression that the Conservatives were the party who wanted to have wage and price controls. The simple fact now is that every time controls are put on one sector of the economy or another by the government in order to protect the consumers, the Conservatives cry "foul". Their leader, when in Vancouver the other day, indicated that when the petroleum price freeze is lifted he would like to see staged increases. That does not sound very consistent to me. Mr. Woolliams: Mr. Speaker, I rise on a question of privilege. I have heard quoted two or three times today what my leader is alleged to have said in Vancouver. An hon. Member: Don't you know what was said? Mr. Woolliams: I wonder if the Minister of National Health and Welfare (Mr. Lalonde) would mind keeping quiet. An hon. Member: What is your point? Mr. Woolliams: At no time did he make that statement. An hon. Member: How do you know? Mr. Woolliams: I have seen the script. An. hon. Member: But were you there? Mr. Deputy Speaker: Order. please. Obviously• a point of debate has arisen. The hon. member for Calgary North (Mr. Woolliams) will be recognized, as I indicated before, im- mediately following the bon. member for Ontario (Mr. Cafik). and he can read into the record what was actually said. I think we should proceed in the traditional method of debate. If hon. members disagree with each other, this is a free place. they have the right to rise and state their disagreement. Mr. Woolliams: Mr. Speaker - Mr. Deputy Speaker: Order, please. I ask the bon. member to co-operate with the Chair. The point concerns him, but this is the essence of debate. In a few minutes he will have a chance to present a rebuttal of the case presented by the bon. member for Ontario. Mr. Woolliams: Mr. Speaker, surely, notwithstanding the rules of debate• the truth is important. Some hon. Members: Oh, oh! Mr. Deputy Speaker: Order, please. The Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of National Health and Welfare has the floor. Mr. Cafik: Mr. Speaker, I say, with due respect to the hon. member for Calgary North -1 do respect him -that it is evident that 1 am quoting from what I believe to be the statement made. I do not think I am wrong. Mr. Woolliams: You are. Mr. Cafik: 1 am sure the record willshow in due course that what I have read from the statement made by the [.ender of the Opposition (Mr. Stanfield) indicates that he has ad- vocated the staging of price increases after the freeze has been lifted on January 31. 1974. if that is not true, that will be fine: I will be glad to see that the Leader of the Opposition has come to his senses and realizes that this is not a good position to advocate. In any event, this government certainly does not subscribe to that position. The Prime Minister indicated eloquently today that we do not believe there ought to be staged in- creases after the price freeze comes off. He said in no un- certain terms that it was his view that we should have cohattary controls until at least ehe end of the present heating season. I subscribe to that view. An. bon. Member: Then how high would it go? Mr. Cafik: An bon. member asks, '"Then how high would it go"' Finally. Mr. Speaker, what we have preached has finally stuck• has finally come home. We have said that wage and price controls advocated by those on the other side of the House would, once the lid had been lifted, only serve to create artificial pressures. As has been said several times, the price of oil in Canada is not related to the cost of production in Canada but. rather, to market value in the world. That market value is not related "o costs but is related to the shortage of supplies and the cutback in production in Arab countries. Therefore, we are simply saying that there is no justification for an increase at this time. as costs have not gone up, merely because there is an opportunity for the companies to garner more money from the people of Canada and of the world as a result of the tight supply situation. An hon. Member: How high would the price go after the freeze" Mr. Cafik: I presume the hon. member would recant what has been said on behalf of the Conservative Party about the putting of a lid on wages and prices, in view of the dangers which would arise once the lid was taken off. If that is the hon. member's position, then 1 am delighted to hear that he and other members of his party have come to their senses in that regard. An. hon. '.Member: Answer the question. How high would prices go t!nen? Mr. Cafik: One thing is sure. If the opposition party were in power today, oil prices in this country would be higher than they are today. A freeze would not have been put on, because I think hon. members opposite are the biggest lobby for the large oil corporations in this country. Some hon. Members: Hear, hear! Some bon. Members: Oh, oh! Mr. Cafik: I think all Canadians welcome Bill C-236 which would clearly establish energy supply allocations in Canada through a board which would control the movement and distribution of petroleum products. I now wish to say something about the over-all problem of energy in this country and what I think ought to bedone about it. Without doubt, the people of Canada are sick and tired of what they believe to the corporate rip-off by the multinational oil corporations. An. hon. Member: Now you are really recanting. Mr. Cafik - The hon. member opposite may laugh, but I will !ell him one thing: his attitude shows he does not care. That is not true of my party. Some hon. Members: Hear. Hear: Mr. Cafik: The Prime Minister responded properly, I thought, by saying that we would keep controls on and see that the best interests of all Canadians are protected. I welcome the establishment of the Canadian petroleum corporation because I think it is essential for the Canadain government to involve itself in exploration in conjunction with the private sector. I particularly welcome the emphasis the Prime Minister gave to our supportung and helping in exploration activities, those smaller Canadian -owned petroleum corporations which find it difficult to compete with the large multinational corporations. I think that will do much to help give us a greater degree of Canadian control over our natural resources. The Prime Minister mentioned the pipeline from the west to the Montreal area. That is very important. I am delighted with the urgent priority given to this matter. May I make a suggestion, which is not really original to myself, which might be considered. In the interim, at the appropriate time we might be able to take advantage of some of the excellent personnel in the armed forces who could hlep in the development of this project and speed it up. 1 think the new Canadian petroleum corporation could be used as a vehicle for development. Under its aegis we could set up a development fund into which special taxes and depletion allowances as presently available to the large oil companies in this country could be funnelled, so that we could establish a sizeable fund for developing our own natural resources, which would include not only the tar sands but offshore resources and resources in outer parts of Canada. The oil export tax, established in Canada some months ago over the cries of "foul" by many Conservative members, I think has been a useful tool for ensuring that the government of Canada, in conjunction with the government of Alberta. can build up funds for those very developmental purposes. The export tax which many were led to believe was a tax against the consumers of Canada is in fact a tax to protect them. It was to make sure that people in Canada are only paying Canadian prices, not prices according to the Chicago market. Because of the export tax there has been a con- siderable increment in funds to be used for national purposes such as the development of oil projects in future. I welcome that. Many Canadians are not fully aware of the enormous rise in the price of oil which has taken place in the world, and how much we have to be thankful for in this country because we are not permitting international prices to be charged on the domestic market. Recently, for instance. Nigerian oil has been sold for $16.40 per barrel: Tunisian oil for $12.6D per barrel. The Chicago market price• as best I can calculate, with our tax added is $6.40 per barrel. The Canadian price is much lower than that, being in the neighbourhood of $4 per barrel. only because the government has put the lid on and made sure that the corporations do not line their pockets because of the international energy crisis. Another area that concerns me a great deal is the need for us to develop and stimulate alternative sources to fossil fuel for energy purposes. A good example of what we can do has taken place in my own constituency. For example, the Prime Minister referred to the Pickering nuclear plant. That has been a phenomenal success, something of which all Canadians can be proud. It is much more successful than any alternative form of developing hydroelectric power tried by any other country in the world, including the United States. The fact that it uses uranium rather than enriched uranium causes a Neatly reduced operating cost of that plant. 1 welcome the suggestion by the Prime Minister that the federal government will participate, as it did in the Pickering project, in developing similar plants in the provinces across Canada. By doing this, the impact can be phenomenal in terms of reduced fossil fuel use. For example, the Pickering plant is at present capable of generating enough power to heat every tame in Toronto and light every light at peak Periods. AM this can be done by one nuclear plant. That is quite an achievement. I think in the long haul we ought of give more emphasis to this kind of energy and less to the conversion of homes to the use of natural gas and oil supplies for home heating purposes, particularly in large metropolitan areas like Toronto. Montreal, and so on. It is now proposed to double the plant in Pickering. After that is completed, it will generate an enormous amount of power. It will take some of the pressure off the use of fossil fuels. I am sure it will serve as an enor- mous export boon when the world becomes aware, as it has increasingly been doing, of the tremendous project we have to the Pickering generating station. There are other things we must do, perhaps in conjuction with the United Nations or at least other countries. We should evolve massive prjects by numbers of countries in the world to look into the problems of solar energy. This is enormously expensive to develop. We must develop hydrogen use and other forms of energy production. There is no question that in 20 or 30 years, which is not long in the lifetime of a nation or the world, we will have to look at these other sources. I believe Canada can set the pace and an example in the development of that kind of approach in which we will con- serve our energy, keeping it for a longer period of time in areas where it is really essential and not using it in areas where alternatives are presently available. The same is true with regard to the use of automobiles. On a recent trip to England,[ was quite impressed with a milk van which, when full, carried 40 cases of milk. It was powered by electricity, two batteries, one on each side of the vehicle. It travelled over 50 miles an hour, with a range of 250 miles on one charge. It is plugged in at night and then used for a full day for the delivery of this product. I do not know why there is not more emphasis given in this country to that clean form of operation for delivery vehicles. Even with its limited use, it can certainly be used much more extensively than at the present time. Energy is a long and involved subject. I am delighted that the government, through the speech of the Prime Minister today, illustrated its determination to control this field and see that the consumers of Canada are protected, in terms of delivery and supply, in both the short run and the long run and are protected in terms of price so that they will not be gouged now or in the future because of artificial pressures and shortages that have been created. "Man oh Man" that sure was some cold week -end. In fact it was so cold, that it's going to take some of our kids a couple of weeks to thaw out.

In order not to miss a great opportunity to let West Rouge views on the subject of the Golf Course go unnoticed, Mr. Mackie immediately had the idea of all of us wearing green buttons proclaiming our hopes of keeping the golf course green an. with this in mind. the Ratepayers will be passing out these buttons at the reception for identification purposes as much as pressing our cause. ta,�oa'!Guq� from all of us here.

POT LUCK LUNCHEON The best yet pot luck luncheon het by members of the 'Just For You' classes at Grace Presbyterian Church was given on Thurs. Dec. 13th. It was extremely well -attended and the buffet provided by the ladies of the various classes was probably better and more extensive than those given in restaurants all over Toronto. It was a most enjoyable get-together, and apart from the delicious lunch• we also enjoyed entertainment given by the `Just Four' - a quartet of ladies from some of the classes, namely Mrs. Cairns, Mrs. Woods, Mrs. Lennox and Mrs. Bamber - who sang a selections of songs, accompanied by Mrs. Bamber on the piano, and then were joined by Mrs. Elaine Lennox, Mrs. Blaymires and Mrs. Helders who, dressed. or undressed as the case may be in hula skirl and balloons• gave an exhibition of Hawaiian dance. The like of which has never been seen anywhere.... particularly Hawaii. Thank you to all the organizers of this luncheon. It was a very lovely way to spend a lunchtime' —FRE WE GO AGAIN... Tis the season to be jolly apparently. So all the dog owners who never dream of putting leash to collar and taking gheir animal for a walk have again opened up their doors and given freedom to their pets with strict instructions not to come home until they've visited the entire district. The plaza is one of the worst -hit areas so between it and the ice hazards, walking is something only undertaken on a clear day - and only then with eves cast downwards. Do watch you footing for heaven's sake. And don't end up, literally. in hospital because of the depredations of the local hound populace. WE%%T ROUGE SPORTS AND RECREATION SS4 x'!

A SEASONABLE THOUGHT One of the better ideas in some time has been put forward by Mrs. Jeanne Boutet who has suggested that instead of friends and neighbours all living in close proximity to one another swopping cards at Christmastime• why not start a fund with the money used on cards and stamps to buy presents for each man and woman resident at Altamount. And, should there be any cash left over, then put it towards something for a needy family in he area. Mrs. Boutet is prepared to look after this fund, so next year, why not try and think about it. And, around November or so, I'll put in a reminder and mavbe we could all collect what we would normally spend and hand it over to Mrs. Boutet w•who would look after it for us. Meanwhile, very happy Christmas greeting are sent to you all from Mrs. Boutet. GOODIRVE TO ALL THAT As we leave Pickering, so I leave the "Pickering Post" and join t he "West Hill News" for better or for worse. Anyways• Ratepayers' President Jim Mackie, together with the rest of his Executive, have met many times with the various Committees of Scarborough Council and seems quite satisfied that West Rouge is going to be looked after not only well but. as Mr. Mackie puts it. "royally". From utilities to roads, each Committee has bent over backwards to try and come to some agreement with West Rouge and really the future does look rosy.

Box 170, Suite 5401, Toronto Dominion Bank Tower, Toronto -Dominion Centre, Toronto, Ontario M5K I H6 (416) 369-3881 Tale Of The Enchanted Toys From the Ontario Safety League comes a Christmas Story for children who want all the toys in the world and for their harried parents: Once upon a time, in a far away land called Adanac, in a province called Riononta, there was no Santa Claus. Apart from that, life was pretty much the same as in Canada and the province of Ontario. There were even more stores with more Christmas gifts and more television messages ad- vertising all sorts of beautiful toys and fun games. But because there was no Santa Claus, all the children asked their own parents for the gifts they wanted. The parents were responsible for buying the gifts and making their children happy. This was pretty hard because very few parents were millionaires and children in all countries, Adanac included. have a tendency to ask for much more than they expect. But the parents did their best and, like Santa Claus, they did it with love and chen - fulness. Parents spent a lot of time selecting the right toy for the right child. They were always careful never to buy toys with sharp edges or small removable parts which could be put in the mouth. They made sure before they bought a painted toy that there was no posion in the paint. They bought easy to clean toys. They never gave their younger ones stuffed animals with glass or button eyes that fah off as babies have a tendency to swallow them. Children were told never to expect toys that caught fine easily. shooting sets that could blind them, ill -balanced wagons and tricycles that could topple, electrical toys that were not approved by the Adanac Standards Association, and above all, each gift was chosen with consideration for the child's age. With all this care and consideration, one would think that there was not much choice left. Well, maybe. But Riononta children were a lot happier and their Christmas was even more joyful. No child was ever hurt because of a bad toy. And the toys children were receiving for Christmas had a special magic due to the love and care of the parents who bought them. They were enchanted toys. They all had the magic of Safety built into them. They were simple toys, not very complicated, and everyone understood that one safe toy was better than ten dangerous ones. The children soon learned to discover the magic in them. A hobby horse, for example, would last for years and had marvelous properties. It became a friend, a rocket, a car, a motorcycle, an air- plane, a snowmobile or anything the child wished. It was simple and un - co nplicated. It allowed the child to use the infinite magic of his own imagination. When Santa Claus heard about Adanac he was very pleased to see that safety minded parents had such consideration for their children. "Vow why couldn't Ontario be like that"' he asked the Ontario Safety League. Why not, indeed! Tog Day A Success The tag day for A.R.C. Industries which was recently run in Ajax, Pickering, Whitby and Dunbarton, was a great success. With the valued assistance of many ebbs, scouts, and guides from these areas, the Ajax Jaycees were able to collect in excess of $975. The money raised will go toward financing the extension to the A_R.C. Industries building. The Dec. 3rd meeting of the Ajax Jaycees was very in- teresting. Clark A. Masan, Mayor of Ajax, was guest speaker and during his short speech and a lengthy question and answer period he was able to clear up many questions which members had concerning regional government and the ex- panded town of Ajax. The neat regular meeting -a business meeting -was held on Dec. 17th. This was the final meeting before the new year.
