Divali is on \o%•. iS and on this day we celebrate the return of Rama from the jungle. Rama *s father had four wives, all of whom lived in separate parts of the castle. Each wife had one son. Rama being the oldest would soon step into his father's place as the King. One of the wives became jealous for she wanted her own son. who was third oldest. to be king. At one time in her life she had done something for her husband for which he had twen so grateful that he had promised to grant her two wishes. On the day that Rama was to be crowned. she reminded her husband of this promise and told him her wishes. Her wishes were that Rama be sent out to the Jungle for fourteen years. for she was sure that he would not have been able to survive for so long. and her second wish was that her son be made ki rig Rama set out to the jungle with the second oldest son. L ickshmard, and his wife. Seeta. both of whom had insisted upon going. Upon hearing what his mother had done, the third oldest son refused to be made king, because that was Rama's rightful position, though he did fill in for [Zama during the fourteen years that he was away On Nov. 15. Rama came home and was crowned as the new ki ng. Every year on thk date. we celebrate his homecoming with fireworks. dancing. singing and feasting.

Christmas is a time when people receive and give presents to others and when people get together and talk about old times. Christmas is When the teacher and the class sometimes have a party at school on the last day before the holidays. Christmas is a time of love and friendship. Christmas is a time when people buy their Christmas trees and then they decorate them. And then. on Christmas morning, the little boys and girls open their presents. And then after they open their presents. they pick up their paper and put it in the garbage and then they play with their toys. Christmas is a time when people go to other people's house for Christmas and the New Year. And Christmas is when people have a Christmas party at their house.

There was a very rich man and he had so much money he gave some to the poor and one night he threw money in the window and the next morning the people saw money. But this man, by the name of St. Nicholas, did it mysteriously. One night he went out to do it again but the windows were locked. Soo tit Nicholas went on the roof and threw money down the chimney. And ladies hung their stockings to dry by the fireplace and the money fell in the stockings That is how We got Christmas and the children call his Santa Claus for short.

Christmas means to me the celebration of the coming of the Christ or :Messiah. It is fun decorating the house, singing. receiving presents and rejoicing on Jesus' birthday. Really to me it means togetherness. happiness, but mostly thankfulness to God. Many people take advantage of Cbristmas and celebrate it just for fun. i probably do it too sometimes and 1 really shouldn't. On Christmas Eve. everyone in our family goes to bed early. Everyone wakes up bright and early Christmas morning and heads for the tree. All presents are spread out under the Christ mos tree. Our family gets together with all our relatives and friends and eat a huge feast. Christmas is also caring for, and helping the unfortunate pe•erple to have a nice Christmas. it is a (tat' that people sometimes forget their grudges tit -cause they are so happy Seimetimes.

What Christmas Means To Me To tell you the truth. my opinion about Christmas what it means is that it is a time for giving and receiving for peace on earl h and good will to all, being with your family and maybe with a friend It i s a I ime for giving cards to teacher. your girlfriend, your boyfriend, your mother, father husband, wife, dr maybe your paperboy, milkman or mailman. It'sa time for sled riding. It's a time for Christmas caroling and it's a lime for love. And last but riot least, it's a time for using up a lot of money without much care. It's a time for building, writing. eating. hugging, kissing, smiling, trying out, unwrapping and feedi rig and it's probably an adults or child's favourite day of the year. And like 1 said once or twice, it's really a time for love. Arid then 1 wake up on Christmas morning.

In Pickering's Council it is normal for issues to be discussed 'in depth' at meetings of the Executive Committee of Council, and for a vote to be taken at that time. Debate is not usually entered into when the matter is then approved or denied at the Council level the following week. This week in Council some Councillors apparently changed their opinions on previously discussed mat- ters pertaining to the much debated Taxicab By -Law. Councillor Ken Matheson commented "Tonight we have heard people getting nailed for changing their minds. My view is that it is a good thing to have a 'cooling off' period and time to chartge vour mind " Mon.

With less than two weeks' negotiating time left before the current contract expires and the CSAO threatening an illegal strike on January 1 st if it doesn't have a new agree- ment by then, we thought it was time to let you, the tax- payers of Ontario, know directly, how and where things stand. After all, it is your tax dollars that will be used to pay for any wage settlement we make with these employees. And it is your services that will be threatened with disruption if the CSAO carries out its threat of an illegal walkout. The government has tried to negotiate in good faith. Government and CSAO negotiators have had a number of meetings since September. At them our representatives have consistently tried to bargain seriously and in good faith. We have shown reasonable flexibility in our position. When that approach failed to draw a response from the other side, government negotiators on December 3rd put their full mandate on the bargaining table. By contrast, CSAO negotiators in September demanded a 611/2 per cent increase in a one-year contract for 1975 —an increase that would cost you, the taxpayers of Ontario. almost $100 million in additional wage hills next year. The CSAO refused to move from that position until December 13th when it put forth an equally unrealistic and unreason- able demand for a 41 per cent increase in one year. The government has made a fair and reasonable wage offer. The government's current offer was made in a sincere attempt to he fair and reasonable with our employees. while. at the same time. recognizing our wider resFx)nsi- bilities to the taxpayers and economy of our province. In recognition of the current inflationary climate in Canada. we proposed a one-year contract so that both sides could return to the bargaining table within 12 months and review the situation in the light of economic circumstances at that time. For 1975 we offered wage increases averaging 20 per cent for the 19.(XX) employees involved. These in- creases would cost an additional $32.7 million next year_ The government wants a settlement — but it must be prepared for an illegal strike. 'Che government remains ready to negotiate seriously and in good faith within the framework of its current proposal. We have already offered to submit the matter to an arbitra- tion board. And an arbitration tx�ard, we might add, which would beconstituted in a way which would meet the CSAO's own demand for equal representation on such boards. In the meantime, since January Ist isn't far away, the gov- ernment has had to formulate contingency plans in the event the CSAO leadership persists in calling an illegal strike. We hope that doesn't happen. But if it dues, we are determined to meet our responsibility to maintain those services you rightfully expect to receive from your government. We believe we have been fair and reasonable with our employees and responsible to you as taxpayers and to the economy of our province.

A community currently planning a development which contains two or more of these elements will be eligible to receive the in- creasedamourdeach time. In other words, a complex including all three could receive up to $:M.00o from the province. The new Community Recreation Centres Act which is currently being considered by the Legislature reflects the desire of the Ontario Government toaccommodate present and future needs in community recreation ac- tivity. Through this increased grant structure, improved financial assistance will be provided in order to keep up with rising construction costs. This improved level of financial support will be welcome news for all municipalities planning new facilities in the 1975 building season.

Dec. 23rd, 1974 THE POST Page 5 Practical Christianity Christmastide is essentially a festival of goodwill. It almost seems as though people have waited all year long to give vent to their feelings of generosity and brotherly love. All around the country this spirit of giving is obvious. There are more special church services held at this time than any other part of the year. The press, radio and TV programs devote space to Christmas messages where everyday topics once were used. Christmas cards, another annual affair, carry sen- timents d peace. love and hope for the new year. This Christmas, The Salvation Army. in its spirit of practical Christianity, will continue its tradition of helping the less fortunate through the distribution of toys and clothing, the provision of Christmas dinners, friendly visits to the shut-in, and concern for the special needs of young and odd. By the way, what are YOU going to do this Christmas? DON VALLEY NORTH ter• � � TOYOTA LTD. -_ 3120 STEEIES AVE. E.

Bare not onh• of the varied foods we take for granted, but hare of dignity, hare of friendship, ha re of hope.

Because people wander around at an Open House, chairs are not a problem. and the food, if conveniently set out on tables in ane room. where traffic can move around iteasily, doesn't need to be "served".

Some affect people over 65 or approaching that age Others provide equality for the spouses and dependent children of male and female contributors. These changes may require prompt action or getting advice So we suggest you read this message very carefully. �'� yt71.1 O"lbUted t0 be Pel • at any tine since Jam"y 11966? Are you between 65 and 69? Then you have a choice Apply now and start receiving your monthly CPP retiretment pension. No more need to retire to collect benefits- (Once you start receiving your pensionhowever. you can make further contributions to the Plan ) OR Continue to contribute to the CPP and possibly build up a larger retirement pension to commence at a later date. Continuing to contribute is also a way to quality survivors for benefits if you have not already done so (When approaching age 70. you should consider applying for your retirement pension because after 70 you may no longer contribute to the Canada Pension Plan ) NOTE: Before making your choice you may wish to seek advice from the nearest CPP office. The staff will be pleased to help you Are you approaching age 65? If you have made your choice and want your CPP retirement pension to commence as early as possible. you should apply two or three months before your 65th birthday NOTE: There is no provision for retroactive payment of retirement pensions between the ages of 65 and 69 So if you re in that age group or approaching it, get advice as soon as possible Do you now receive a CPP retirement pension? As of January 1st. 1975. your pension will no longer be affected by any money you earn thereafter. Other Changes: The earnings ceiling—that is. the maximum amount on which contributions can be paid and or, which benefits can be calculated—is being raised to $7400 in 1975 and to $8300 in 1976. The initial amount of earnings. on which you are not required to contribute. will be $700 in 1975. This means that for female contributors. in addition to being eligible for a retirement pension and disability protection for themselves, and a death benefit payable to their estates. as has been the case in the past. their spouses and dependent children are now eligible for benefits as follows: Benefits for Surviving Spouses A monthly pension pay%ble to the widower who at the time of the death of the contributor is over 35 years of age. or under 35 years of age but is disabled or has dependent children. that is, a benefit similar to that which has always existed for widows Benefits for Orphans A monthly benefit payable to unmarried dependent children under 18 and to unmarried dependent children between 18 and 25 attending school or university on a full-time basis In order for survivors to qualify, the contributor must have died in January 1968 or later and must have contributed for the minimum contributory period, which is three years for deaths occurring before January 1, 1975. Benefits for Children of Disabled Contributors A monthly benefit payable to unmarried dependent children under 18 and to unmarried dependent children between 18 and 25 attending school or university on a full-time basis. where the contributor concerned is in receipt of a CPP Disability Pension NOTE: In all cases, it is necessary to make application for benefits. If such applications are approved, payments can only be made currently—that is, from January 1, 1975. No payment can be made for any period prior to that date.

I A few weeks ago, the Government introduced into the House of Commons the "Representation Act 1974". This is a Bill designed to provide more equitable representation of the provinces in the House of Commons. - Redistribution is a procedure which takes place every ten years based on the most recent census. This latest redistribution has been delayed for some time because of the minority Parliament between October 1972 and July 1974. In the past, redistribution has involved a shuffling of con- stituencies so that all Ridings would have approximately equal numbers of voters. However, the total number of Ridings has always remained at 264. The new Redistribution Bill proposes to increase members in the Commons from 264 to 279, with a possible increase in representation for the Territories, for the next general election anticipated in 1978. By Norm Cafik, M.P. EXISTING RULES: At the present time, the British North America Act states that: (1) -No Province is to have fewer Members in the House of Commons that Senators; (2) - The reduction of seats per Province cannot exceed 15%: tat - No Province with agreater population can have fewer seats than a Province with a smaller population. If the system were unaltered, in the next general election, each of four Provinces - Prince Edward Island, New Brun- swick, Newfoundland and Nova Scotia - would have its representation at its constitutional minimtun; Newfoun- dland. Nova Scotia, Quebec, Manitoba and Saskatchewan would lose seats for the next general election. 14 14 From All Of Us To All Of You A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS 1.4 AND "THANKS" 4.4 1.4 IT WAS A VERY GOOD YEAR. rIm b'* d 'll Sales - Service - Parts - Body Shop 4600 SHEPPARD AVE.

The Brigade is made up of a well disciplined body of trained men and women. none of whom receive anv I'ROPOSED NEW GENERAL RULES: There are four general principles to the proposed new met hod : (1) - No Province shall suffer a decrease in Commons representation. (2) - No Province shall have fewer seats than a Province with a smaller population. tat - No Province shall have an average constituency population greater than that of Quebec. tot - Remainder resulting from calculations under the proposed new method would be dropped. Under the proposed changes, British Columbia would gain four seats for a total of 27; Alberta would gain one seat for a total of 20; Saskatchewan would gain one seat for a total of 14; Manitoba would gain one seat for a total of 14; Ontario would gain seven seats for a total of 95; and Quebec would gain one seat for a total of 75. Newfoundland, Prince Edward Island. Nova Scotia and New Brunswick would remain un- changed in their representation. I see these changes as necessary ones. The addition of fif- teen seats to the House of Commons will ensure that those areas of Canada which are experiencing decreases in population or smaller rates of increase than others, will cont inue to receive adequate representation. Furthermore, it -would clearly be undesirable if the average population of constituencies were to go to a size that made it impossible for the individual Member to give the necessary service to his constituents. OLD AGE SECURITY — I.D. CARDS In response to numerous requests from the National Pen- sioner and Senior Citizens Federation, other similar organizations. and many individuals concerned with senior citizens, the Department of National Health and Welfare will be issuing identification cards to all recipients of Old Age Security benefits. The cards will be issued automatically on a phased basis starting in the first quarter of 1975 and will affect some 1.9 million OAS recipients. Applications will not be required. The prime purpose of the cards is to permit OAS recipients to identify themselves easily and thus enable them to take full advantage of many benefits such as merchandise discounts. reduced transportation fares and other similar savings available to senior citizens now or in the future. The card will contain such items of information as the pensioner's name and OAS account number as well as a tamperpmd signature strip. renumeration for the time they devote to St .1t hn Best Wishes From Your Local Branch Manager may the Christmas message shine brightly in the hearts of people every- where, bringing to all new hope and new courage, inspiring all with a deep sense of renewed dedication and devotion to the fulfillment of the glorious promise of "Peace on Earth, Good Will to Men."

Personally, I hate to miss even one day, as my record indicates. In fact, since my appointment as Minister of the Environment, I have only missed the Question Period three times, I believe. The Question Period is a forty-five minute session held each day in which the Opposition and the N.D.P. are given an opportunity to ask Ministers about matters affecting our Province. The Ministers are not given advance notice about the questions they will have to field. I have always believed this a truly worthwhile procedure in our democratic system and would do nothing to put an end to this parliamentary right of opposition parties. Where I do draw the line however, is when the Leaders or members of Opposition parties take up the time of the House )their time as well) to ask politically oriented questions which have no beaming on anything whatsoever except to make a political point. This irresponsibility is a matter which they will have to answer for. not me, thank goodness. I might suggest to anyone who is contemplating a visit to the [.egislat ure to view the proceedings, to come for the opening of Question Period. It is an excellent opportunity to witness lively exchange and icseehow your Government works. If you wish to attend the Legislature, please call my office and we will ensure that you are able to get a seat from which you may see the debates. FEDERAL --PROVINCIAL ENVIRONMENT MINISTERS WORK TOGETHER In reading the press one could get the impression that oc- cassionally politicians attempt to pass the buck onto another level of government when criticism is levelled against them. I want to assure you that this is certainly not the case in environmental matters between Canada and Ontario. At a recent meeting in Ottawa I met with my counterpart Madame Jeanne Sauve. Federal Minister of the En- vironment. Our discussions involved a wide-ranging number of top" which will all have a significant bearing on Canada - If You Haven't A Penny A Carol Will Do! Commissioner Arnold Brown in his first Christmas message as The Salvation Army's newly -appointed national leader suggests that he would rather Canadians understand the ineaning of the carols that will be played and sung by The Army's musicians throughout the festive season• than that )hey put five dollars in the Christmas Kettle or in the collector's box. No4. he says, that he is anxious to lose dollars for the t'hristmas and winter relief of the needy, but that there is something more to the celebration of Christmas than a lot of self -pleasure and a little self-denial on behalf of the less - fortunate. Actually, he feels. the whole meaning of Christmas needs to Pw restated. lie wishes he had enough Salvationists to stand at every street corner in Canada to proclaim it in the sim- plest o! terms. He is certain that Canada needs such a message. He predicts that Christmas 1974 will likely register an increase to what he calls "the tragedies of affluence". Christmas will, he is afraid, provide one more outlet for a prodigal indulgence made possible by ever-increasing in- come despite increasing costs. The stresses to which the 1974 individual is subject• ac- cording to the Commissioner, makes him grasp at any oc- casion when he can. by one means or another, forget the pressures of life, escape from the challenges of competitive commerce and lose himself in a dangerous miasma of merrymaking, often without thought of the consequences to himself, his family, or the world around him. He needs to know Christmas not as a day - or week - for "living it up", but as a time for remembering the "life more abundant" that Christ came to bring. Faith in Christ, says Commissioner Brown puts things into proper perspective. Life is seen as it really is, an existence in which demonic forces would destroy man's highest aspirations and drag him intoa spiritual dungeon from which any escape is better than none. With faith, however, comes stability, confidence, and the knowledge that one is on God's side, and that He is the final victor. If one stops to listen, that is the message of every true Christmas carol. The word "true" is important, says the Commissioner. We are not thinking of the "red -nosed rein- deers" or any other kind of red noses, celebrated in some seasonal songs. We are thinking of those words and music that celebrate a Saviour's birth; for, if we are completely honest, that's what this old, tired, said, and often wicked world needs more than anything else, a Saviour. It needs to be saved from itself; it needs to be saved to righteousness and peace and all the other shining virtues and high qualities which the world saw• for a brief thirty-three years, in Jesus, but which mankind can still claim through faith in Him.

I am personally pleased to report that our meeting con- cluded with Madame Sauve and I having a better un- derstanding of our respective problems and with a stated commitment by both of us to work together to solve those probl em s. Officials from Ontario and Canada who sat in on our discussions were advised to get together whenever necessary to tackle any environmental problems before the. It was most refreshing to meet with Madame Sauve because although we have opposing viewpoints, we were able t set aside politics in order that we deal with the important reason for our meeting. which was to solve environmental problems. BACK AFTER CHRISTMAS At the time of writing this article, it appears that the Members will take a short Christmas break to be with families and friends and will return to the Legislature in January. In previous years the House Debates went on until the early (tours of the morning. oftentimes as late as 3:00 and 4:00 a.m. I greet the abandonment of this practice with pleasure. It will mean that we will all be more alert to the important legislation before us. N%`HERE TO RUN' At this moment I am pondering the effects of the recently announced electoral boundary changes. 1'nder the redistribution plan, the size of my present riding (it Ontario South has changed in three places. West Rouge, North Pickering and Fast Whitby are all transferred to other ridings through the use of the new municipal boundaries created by the formation of :he Region of Durham. Thus means that my own North Pickering residence is no longer in my riding. 1 have said publicly on a number of occasions that I will run in t he area in which I live, which is now the riding of Durham North. You are all aware, however• of my histone at- tachment to Durham West )Ontario South) riding which consists of a seven year association of friendship with many. many friend~ and supporters as their elected representative. The decision on my future course is obviously one on which I must deliberate very carefully. 1 expect to be able to advise you of the riding I will be .seeking the nomination in early in the new year.

Aeo ':Icted, erefor rselve birth. It was a Christ %1.:„ The manger, a sanctuary and Christmas is this. A sanctuary in total. Perhaps our picture of Lorna Miller's Jesus and the Last Supper. is depicting of Good Friday but her Jesus transmits vibrations and I do hope many Canadians will go and have a look at this at the Wax Museum on Yonge and Gerrard over the Christmas Holidays. It is not completed yet and will be under renovations until March but her Jesus talks ... and he might just let that wee small voice inside you tell you the true meaning of Christmas. It is not the boozing, it is not the partying, it is not the gift swapping, ...it is the reminder of the miracles that we see ... or pass ... each and every day of our lives. You yourself are a miracle. The rose—the free ... the snow... the sun—they are all niracitr l:u• ii:tle childi-cr with Iheir ayes wide open.....they are all miracles. This Christmas remember the word of Christ..."Man does not live by bread alone...." Look within for it is in the true understanding of ourselves that we can understand others and gain an insight into what this life is all about. Try to appreciate the real things in life and not the temporary man-made things that abound. We are our brother's keeper and we must give each and everyone that we make contact with the chance to develop in their own area of freedom. Is this what Jesus meant when he said "Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us" .... no more) no less' So senseless to argue and grudge and fight for that which can never be ours. What we give in this world and our patience and love inston Churchi l ..:, the only things we «ill take and to give is more blessed than toreceive. Was This not said' To give of material things means going to the store but to give of oneself -in time or help is really to give. So this Christmas let's realize that you are a child of the universe• no less than the sea and sky—you have a right to be here. And so does He. Let there be peace on earth and let it begin with me. "But as long as there be a foe Value him Respect him, measure him Be humble toward him Let him not strip from you However strong he be Compassion, the one wealth Which can afford him" Christ mas is the birthday of Jesus Christ ... let's make this a het ter world. Let's take the hand of our brother and walk in peace and harmony - Let there be peace on Earth. Let it begin with me. Mon.

We began this year by getting to know each other and overcoming inhibitions about having others reading our writing. *CffzffArW:&-3& Fort York Open Year Round Through the winter months Fort York will maintain its traditional happening.

Chocolate Almond Sales Several weeks ago Dun- barton launched it's annual almond selling campaign to raise funds for school ac- tivities. The campaign proved to be successful: the goal of $2.(100 has almost horn reached and money is N still coming in. Each student was asked to sell four boxes of chocolate almonds to their relatives and friends and the students undertook the project en- Ihusiastically. There have been contests and draws for the best almond sellers, in keeping with our lively school spirit. The almond stuffing contest was won by Mr. Grant, a boy's Gym teacher, who stuffed :Ifi almonds into his mouth! Aclose second was F'rand -he Tank Andrews, a grad 10 student who stuffed in 39 almonds. There has been a daily draw of $5 for students who have returned their almond nxney. and the draw on the five Ib. chocolate bar has vet to take place. An additional $t x1 in prizes will hi- awarded to the top three almond sellers and to the pair who sold the most airrmwds together.
