Bill McLean, 1975 Cam- paign Chairman of the Ajax - Pickering Community Fund, announced that the con- tainers will be delivered to householders in this area at the beginning of the cam- paign in October and will be picked up again during the f imt week of November. The idea is that householders are requested to put their loose change into these "piggy banks" over a period of about four weeks. The containers will then be picked up again by volun- teers of the residential canvass. taken to the can- vass headquarters where the contents will be counted and registered. If a receipt for the donation is requested, all the househaider has to do is to put a slip of paper with his or her na me and address into the container, and an official receipt for tax purposes will he mailed out. Harry T. Cook, this year's Residential Canvass Chairman. says the con- tainers have been used successfully by other Community Funds across Canada. The "milk cartons" will be used only in the densely populated southern parts of this area while conventional canvassing methods will be applied north of the Third Con- cession. Some of the con- tainers may also be used in the Commercial Canvass headed this year by Bob Mason. In that case they will be set up on counters in small stores. if for some reason the container could not be picked up at the end of the canvass, for instance, if the householder was not at home at pick-up time, the householder can phone the Community Fund at 839-1004 for a special pick-up. That number is a iso printed on the shoulders of the container. As Bill McLean points out, there is no reason for con- cern that the coin boxes will be picked up by some "phoney collectors". All volunteers authorized topick up the "milk cartons" will carry and show iden- tification cards issued by the Ajax -Pickering Community Fund. 4320 Kingston Rd Hest of IaH rence, 8.-4721 I'll 4:3 UDAS on MARKHAM • Exhaust T e Shocks • Custom Bending - 762 MARKHAM RD.

Give Let Live lie KA BLOOD DONOR Agreement' ✓ Deferred On Right-of-way Following a petition from area residents, a lease agreement covering the right-of-way running from Rosebank Road to Old Forest Road has been deferred by Council. Before the matter is again brought to Council, Councillors will have the opportunity of examining the right-of-way and the Director of Public Works has been asked to report on costs involved in putting the 429 foot pathway Into shape'. Mr. William Garnett, of 1444 Old Forest Road this week told Council that the Municipal -owned strip of land has, for many years, been used by children and adults as a means of crossing from the valley area to Rosebank Road. In presenting arguments for leaving this land as a free access to the people, Mr. Garnett said that he had forwarded a petition, signed by 51 residents indicating that 106 children use the pathway as a means of getting to the school bus, or to school. Should the path- way be closed. Mr. Garnett saik two alternatives would be available to these children. "Firstly, they could walk north to Sheppard Avenue at Old Forest Road. In some cases this would increase their walking distance by as much as 200 percent.

Permits Deferred The Metro Toronto and Region Conservation Authority fMTRCA► has once again requested Pickering to issue demolition permits for 527 and 531 Rodd Avenue. Both of these houses belong to the MTRCA and have been standing vacant for some time. Rosebank residents have been asking that these houses should not be demolished, and that they should be rented until the need for the land on which they stand has been proven. However, the Authority claims that each house would require up to $8,000 of repairs before they could be rented. Each house has been subjected to vandalism in the time that it has stood vacant. Mr. R. L. Holder of Craft -co has also made an application to move the two homes to alternate sites, thus avoiding the recd to de mol ish them while providing much needed housing in another area. Both issues have been deferred pending input from the Durham Regional Social Services Department which is currently investigating the possibility of using these homes for needy families. The Durham Regional Social Services Committee is holding a meeting this week, and a report from them on the Rosebank issue is ex- pected to be forthcoming. Meanwhile, the MTRCA last month endorsed plans to build a new GO station at the northern boundary of the Pettycoat Creek Con- servation Area. It is intended that this Station should make the park more accessible to people coming from Metro. At present, the GO -Transit system terminates at Bay Ridges, and the Dia" -bus system is used from there to the Park.

Sept. 18th. 1975 Opinion Election Prediction Those Ontario citizens who like election drama are going to have a lot of fun on Thurs. Sept. 18th. We predict that the - results will be very close, and we feel that the next govern- ment will he probably a minority government. But its going to he a nightmare for the candidates. Their fingernails and nerves will be in shreds before the evening is out. We had thought that the Nixon -Davis TV debate would have decided a large number of votes. But it seems to have left many uncommitted voters still in a mood of indecision. This election would seem to boil down to just how many "anti -Davis" votes are on the loose. Stephen Lewis has made much headway with the voters through his reasoned arguments and effective speech- -making. But in the final analysis voters probably are going to recognize that an NDP vote will not elect an NDP govern- ment but will help elect one of the other two parties, perhaps the one the voter doesn't really want. So. if this is the voter inspiration and if the public is strongly fora change of government, it would seem that Robert Nixon and his Liberals will form the next Ontario government. But this outcome doesn't seem too clear at the time of writing, so it could be a Conservative government cut back in the number of seats in the legislature. Unlike previous Ontario elections, no groundswell of public opinion can be detected. and the vote result is decidedly unknown.

Ward 12 residents will ask. *,Whv didn't some one tell me". Mayor Paul Cosgrove has focused on the key decision of this cent ury for Scarborough. 1 not only applaud his foresight. but I encourage both the Federal and Provincial levels of Government to accede to his request. It will be one of the mast important decisions made in the history of both Scar- horough and Metropolitan Toronto. Joe Dekort Alderman. Ward 12 — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — 5 Million Voters The machinery is in place for more than five million qualified voters to cast their ballot in Ontario's 30th general elect ion. Polling lists are being completed and distributed for use during the advance polls on September 12th. 13th and 15th, and on election day. September 18th. A work force of about 40.000 has been employed as deputy returning officers, poll clerks and other personnel required for efficient election administration by Returning Officers in 125 electoral districts. They are working with millions of forms and other necessary documents distributed from the Ontario Election Office in Toronto. The -reverse print" ballot design introduced in the 1971 general election is being used again for this election. Prior to 1971, ballots were mostly white with black printing, enabling a voter to mark an "x" in places other than a circle opposite a candidate's name. To reduce the number of spoiled ballots, the ballots are now entirely black except for candidate's names, numbered Consecutively in alphabetical order by surname, and a circle opposite each name - all in white. Thus, there's no question of where the ba llotshould be marked: in the white circle. No more than one circle may contain a mark to indicate a voter's choice. A ballot with the word "yes" in one circle and "no" in another would be considered spoiled. Candidates' party affiliation does not appear on ballots used in Ontario elections.

Good Example The fine example shown by Montreal policemen in their pre- strike activities last week reveals the absolute stupidity of allowing key functions such as police. fire to have strike act ion. Imagine in Metro Toronto having our police officers rising taxpayers' paid cruisers and on taxpayer -paid time .creaming en masse up and down the roadways to show their displeasure If such an event ever took place here, we believe the public would expect the police chief and/or commission to suspend immediately any one involved in such an idiotic display. The reason for the Montreal police strike is they want pay equal to Metro Toronto. Isn't that amusing' Our police get better raises in pay without strikes' However , the cost of living in Montreal, especially in housing, is much less than in Toronto' [set's hope conditions in Toronto never get to the point where -tach tactic- occur Lock Up Guilty lkar Editor: The Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police is demanding -'a tightening up of the Bail Reform Act under which con- victed murderers have been released pending trial." Countless law-abiding citizens in the C.S. are forced to lock themselves in at night and this situation could develop in Canada unless the trend to permissive criminality is reversed. Surely. the guilty should be locked up so the innocent can calk the streets in safety. William F. Kae. 9 Qavarin Street. tic•a rborough. Ontario. Average Home May Cost $100,000 In 1980 The Canadian Housing industry is the most efficient business enterprise in the country, according to Walter Frank of W. Frank Real Estate Limited. "Inspite of the fact that combined costs of construction and serviced land have increased 50 percent in the last two years, prices of new homes and raw land in this period have generally stabilized." Mr. Frank said. "In fact in the Province of Ontario, with the speculative element removed from the market for new houses, prices in some instances have declined from peak levels by an average of 5 per cent and in the SI M M1(1 range as much as 10 percent," Mr. Frank added. "The consumer price index which measures the rate of inflation in the overall cost of living in Canada (1971 equals 1001 advanced 41.2 percent since 1971. "in the last year the new housing price index (1971 equals 100 ) for Toronto actually declined. The selling prices of new houses constructed by large builders in the Toronto area dropped 6.4 percent froma year ago. Residential real estate sale!, volume across the Province of Ontario is also down 40 pi•rcent from the record 1973 pace while the volume of listings for sale in the first half of 1975 was up by the same amount." Mr. Frank revealed. This means that vendors should be more realistic in pricing their properties for sale he suggested. Very Poor The current advertising campaign of the Civil Service Association of Ontario surely must be considered by any reasonable person a poor attempt to get certain "rights" for the provincial civil servants. The radio ads say that the Davis government is forbidding them their normal rights as citizens to fully participate in the election. This statement is incorrect, of course -- it wasn't the Davis government - the civil servants have never had the right to involvement in a provincial election. While someone listening to these radio dramas complete with sound effects could be le d to hel ievethat civil servants should he unrestricted in elections, we suggest the following - reasons w•hy provincial employees shouldn't be active in an election of provincial representatives. Away back in our histroy, civil servants didn't have security because they were allowed to show their political biases. In fact. after every election thousands would lose their jobs if the wrong party won. So to stop the partisanship of the civil service and to protect them from political abuse, we formed the civil service commission for hiring and firing and meant to be divorced from the political process. if civil servants were allowed to participate, the political party in power would tend to use the services of their adherents who work for the government. First, it would be a simple sign on the lawn at election time. Then the invitation to join the political party and do campaigning. Come the next election and all of those civil servant party members could easily convert from a highways truck driver to a sign worker - even in publicly - paid times. Then when the workers' party got into power, he could be promoted on the basis of his value as a party worker' No way' it is absolutely essential, in our opinion, that civil servants not be allowed to campaign at elections. As citizens they have the right to vote secretly. No one knows how our civil servants vote just now. If we are to keep our govern- ment functioning impartially, the civil servants must be restricted from this activity. And after all, its better for the worker. Imagine a civil servant being Liberal and having the Conservative depart- ment minister trying to get unbiased work from the em- ployee during election time' Or a New Democrat party member civil servant feeding confidential reports to his party in the opposition' A government must rely on some phase to be reliable and non-political - and that is our civil service group. But there is nothing to stop a provincial civil servant campaigning in a muniepai or federal election, is there! Is It Labour Or Corporations.? The Canadian Chamber of Commerce has taken issue with some statistics on labour income and corporate profits which appeared in a recent Canadian Press report of a speech by Shirlev Carr, Executive Vice -President of the Canadian Labour Congress. The Canadian Press story attributed to Mrs. Carr the statement that the federal government was acting irresponsibly in placing the blame for inflation on high wage settlements, and had remained silent in recent years while company profits were high. according to the Canadian Press story. Mrs. Carr said the percentage of national income going to wages and salaries had dropped from 72.9% in 1971 to 70.5% in 1974, while the percentage of national income going to corporate profits had risen from 12.3% in 1971 to 17% in 1974. S. F. Hughes, Executive Director of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce. said these statistics are misleading. The ac- tual trend, he said, has been just the opposite to what these statistics would indicate. in the period 1947-1974, said Mr. Hughes, the real average annual rate of return to business owners was only 6.2%. Over the last thirteen years of thatperiod. the rate was even lower - only 2.63%. The labour force, on the other hand• has done very well in the post-war period. Real wages per hour have doubled; the average work week has been reduced. and fringe benefits and working conditions have been improved. The fallacy in the statistics attributed to Mrs. Carr, said Mr. Hughes, lies in picking just two convenient points on the curve and ignoring the developing trends. For one thing, the year 1974 was very un -typical for business, in that the business climate that year involved a great deal of liquidation of inventories, and as a result, profits which would have been earned in other years developed in the 1974 figures. The reduced figures for 1975 are confirming that the 1974 earnings were inflated. The only fair way to compare, said Mr. Hughes, is to take the whole curve and compare the trends. Such a comparison, he said, shows clearly that the increases in labour income have been outstripping the gains in business profits by a wide margin. _% r 1 Don Valley North Toyota Is pleased to announce an Additional Service to its' many Customers and Friends.

They don't need to be dramatized by any old- fashioned hellfire preaching. To start with, alcohol is ex- tremely expensive, but relatively speaking it is not expensive to buy. For although some would argue that $7.00 for a bottle of spirits is pretty steep, the true cost of "booze" has actually declined as a percentage of disposable income over the past couple of decades. No. the really staggering costs of alcohol can be seen in our health care bill. As Ontario's Minister of Health. Frank Miller. put it in a speech recently: "The Ontario taxpayer forked out S89 million through general public hospitals in 1971 for illnesses related to alcohol ... that. plus another $17 million through the mental hospital system: about $9 million through the Family Benefits Act. and more than $1 I million through Children's Aid Societies. for alcohol-related problems." Those are some of the visible costs. 1t you add to them physi- cians' fees. the fact that alcohol plays a part in half of all traffic accidents in Ontario. and the enor- mous losses to industry of alcohol- related absenteeism, the price we're paying for alcohol -is truly astro- nomical. On the issue of productivity or the lack of it — alone, the Addiction Research Foundation es- timates that 14 million person hours are lost each year in Ontario because of alcohol. Even if you total that up at the minimum hourly wage, it would add up to a large amount. But behind all those dollar fig- ures there are some disturbing personal statistics. in Ontario to- day. close to 300.000 people drink enough alcohol to endanger their health. Of these, more than 145,000 have reached a stage of alcoholic illness. The solution isn't to ban "booze" or to tax it out of reach of the average person: rather it is simply to emphasize that alcohol is a chemical that. if it is not used sen- sibly and in moderation, can very easily become addictive and harm- ful. The step between regular or heavy social drinking and total dependence really isn't very great. As the Ministry of Health's re- cently -introduced alcohol informa- tion program points out: "Mix a little thinking with your drinking. Ask yourself why you drink, when, how much — and on how many more occasions than you did, say, a year ago. That way. you may be able to head off a very costly problem.

Often, he leaves it behind because, like the rest of us. Len likes to relax and forget about work for a We or two — and .:ameras remind him of work. Tomiczek is one of Canada's ^ctter commercial photo- c-aphers specializing to dis- ;.,y work. In fact, he does a of work for a cheese im- ,sorter. In Freeport, Len didn't fused any cheese to photograph— much to his relief. But he did shoot, to use the old-fashioned term, some "cheesecake" of the female variety. It was all on the level, mind you, because Mrs. Torniczek was along to supervise. The Toronto photographer admitted that shooting pictures in Freeport was a distinct plea- sure, and at no time did it feel hke work. Of the variety of destinations available to the traveller, picture taking in Freeport or anywhere else in :he Bahamas can be a reward - .ng experience. Certainly, there is a plentiful supply of lovely ladies to be found at beaches throughout the year—whether it be winter or summer. But according to Tomiczek the Bahamas has two super camera subjects which should appeal both to the amateur and serious photo- grapher. One is the water, re- puted to be the clearest in the world, and an absolutely beau- tiful aquamarine colour; and the other is Goombay Summer, a festival which runs from June to September throughout the Bahamas, where events such as street dancing provide photographers with a multi- tude of colourful photo subjects. Of course, for people who don't want to be bothered with taking a camera, 35 mm Koda- chrome slides showing scenes of the Bahamas are available throughout the islands.

Re: Municipal Grant Act and Pickering Expropriation Dear Mr. Minister: There has been a very considerable debate between the Department of Public Works and the Federal Crown and the municipalities of Pickering, Uxbridge and Markham in relationship to grants in lieu of taxes for the expropriated Pickering airport. Up until now, the Government has argued under Section 2F of the Municipal Grants Act that in cases where Federal Property is leased back to a third party, that the third party is responsible for payment of taxes and therefore grants in lieu of taxes for such individual property is an impossibility. I must admit that for the last two years, I have accepted that argument on the premise that I would have been told the real facts in the case. However, I have subsequently looked at :Section 2F of the Municipal Grants Act and I find that this may be, but is not necessarily the case. I quote from Section 2F as follows: "Except when otherwise prescribed by the Minister, -real property owned by Her Majestv and leased to or occupied by a person from whom, by reason of his interest in or occupation of that real property, a municipal taxing authority may collect real estate tax, You will notice from the above excerpt from the Municipal Grants Act that. in fact, the power to prescribe the method of compensation rests with the Minister himself. In other words, the Minister may prescribe* that a grant in lieu of taxes can be made for such leased -back land if he so chooses. In the case of Pickering, such a prescription by the Minister has not been made. Therefore, the municipality is in the position of collecting the taxes directly from expropriated personsprior to the date of occupation which was May 30, 1975 and thereafter having the Crown act as a conduit for such taxaction. In the latter case. the Crown collects the taxes Quick Coveralls! I'rintf'tl P.11It.1'n Square Dancer! Priwed PaIller11 3 t> overand above the lease, and remits them back to the 4981 municipalities.

If some vid- tors wonder if anything is for real in Freeport, they hove to look aro further than the local citizens, whose down-bo.earik qu hides leave not been affected by the glitter and opulence. Bahamians in Freeport make city down to earth FREEPORT, Bahamas—To the visitor, this resort city on Grand Bahama Island sometimes appears to be an unreal world. That's because Freeport is unlike any other area to the Baharntas_or the Can'bbean and West Indies, for that matter. Freeport wasn't ready for tourists until 1964, when the fust hotel opened. And up un- til 1955, the arra where Free- port-Lucaya is now situated was just scrub and swamp. The founders of the city wanted to build aglamour spot—with lavish hotels, gambling casinos and a shop- ping area which would attract visitors. They succeeded. The hotels are opulent almost to the point of extravagance. The casinos offer glitter and nightlife. And a shopping centre called the International Bazaar is a world's fair of shops and res- taurants—a $3,000.000 centre laid out on a 10 -acre tract with the goods and foods of more than two -dozen nations and five continents displayed in authentic settings ranging from Oriental to European. So it's no wander that some visitors ask if anything is for real in Freeport Although the majority o people ting Freeport enjoy the nightlife, beaches and other activities, the city has been criticized by a few as a cardboard destin- ation. with no soul, history or tradition. Yet Freeport offers one tan- gible in common with Nassau. the old colonial style capital of the Bahamas, on New Providence Island, and the many quiet and quaint Baham- ian Out Islands. And that is its people. All the glamour and opu- lence surrounding Freeport hasn't really aifo-ici the aver- age Bahamian who lives here. The people of the Bahamas, and sister nations in the Carib- bean and West Indies, are sometimes misunderstood. An unfortunate stereotyped image held by too many North Americans of the people Irving in this area is that of lazyness, indifference and a surly atti- tude towards visitors. The fact is, most Bahamians are extremely shy people. and while their capnaocee of living is undeniably slower than that in Canada and the United States, they are cerainly not indiffer- ent. They realize their hveh- hood depends on the tourist trade. and go out of their way to make sure the visitor has a good vacation. Freeport is no exception. While it would be easy to be- come over -awed by the city. Bahamians living here seem to maintain a umple• easy gig manner.

And that is the truth. I've gone through it all, and I haven't been the best person on this earth by any means. But prayer has helped me a lot." In this day and age, many people may not share Arthur's views on religion. But certainly you must respect him as a de- cent, reasonable young man. Someone who likes to talk if given the chance.

Self Serve Works Well At Kingston & Galloway Roads Three years ago when Robert McAulay was still in university, he took a summer job managing a small variety store and Supertest service station at Rondeau Provincial Park near Chatham. That experience is helping him and his wife Corylvnne, run a successful BP self -serve gas bar and Pop Shoppe at Kingston and Galloway Roads. "I had worked in gas stations before as summer jobs and part-time during school," he said, "so I had some experience before I started here in May of last year." A dealer first. McAulav became an agent last March when the outlet beca me a self -serve operation. "Self -serve gas on this site really fits in well because the pop is basically self - serve." he said. Robert's wife Corylynne said that many of their customers buy both gas and pop. "They may come in for gas and decide to get some pop or the other way around. Many of our regular customers come in and the wife gets the pop while the husband fills the tank." The McAulays who have been married for two years found the first year in business dif- ficult. Robert said, "We were working very long hours and there weren't enough sales at that time to support the hiring of even part-time help." Considering that the outlet is open seven days a week, it must have been a strain but things have changed now for the better. In the summer when pop sales are very high, the operation boasts "three full-time employees and one part-timer which allows us to get away for a couple of relaxing days alone, usually during the week when the shop is not as busy as weekends,'. Robert added. "It keeps us pretty busy," Robert said. "There's a lot of work involved but it is nice that Cory and I can be together at work as well here as at home." They live in an apartment 10 minutes away from the outlet and have no children. As Robert joked, "We haven't had time." "The sales from the Pop Shoppe (which has more than 2,000 cases in stock' have been building steadily, but winter sales are only half of what the summer brings except, of course, for Christmas which tops the list as the busiest time of the year," he added. The self -serve gas operation has four double pumps with a no -lead pump. Also available for motor vehicles is carry -out oil in a four -pack for people who want to do their own al changes. To complement the pop sales there is also available the party items such as chips, ice cream, peanuts and ice. Robert McAulay said that the biggest improvement will be when the reconstruction and widening of Kingston Rd. finishes.

Agincourt Sportsfair Success Brisk winds and cloudy skies on Sunday, September 7, didn't deter thousands of Metro outdoors enthusiasts from taking in the day of family fun at Metro Region Conservation's annual Sportsfair at Cold Creek Conservation Area. One of the biggest surprises for visitors to the park was the popularity among dog lovers of Siberian huskies. Breeders brought more than 150 of the beautiful. mostly - blue -eyed canines to take part in the special dog show and to run in the team demonstrations. Frisky, woolly little puppies being offered for sale (at prices ranging from $150 to $25o each, were an added at- traction. While the day wasn't en- tirely one for the dogs. they certainly were a major drawing card. Beautiful collies fronLCaledon Kennel Association were put through their paces to show just how well a dog can be trained to obey commands. And. of course. for the youngsters a major event was the "mutt" show for family pet dogs. Far from being "mutts", however. many of the two dozen pets entered were elegant dogs running the gamut in size from Skye terriers to majestic Russian wolfhounds. Well-trained dogs from the Labrador Club also put on a retrieval demonstration. Large crowds of visitors gathered about falconry specialist Ulrich Watermann of Brampton to hear his talk on his birds of prey. Among the live birds he had with him were a sparrow hawk, a European great owl and a golden eagle. Young and old, men and women took full advantage of the opportunity to fire guns on the rifle range or zip arrows at the archery list. Two members of the Canadian Parabatic Club thrilled the crowd as they floated in the high wind to make pinpoint landings on the grounds. The day concluded with a mock battle between members of the Etobicoke Indian Club and muzzle- loader bearing "soliders" from Upper Canada Rifles.

And last Sunday afternoon in Peterborough the Scar- borough Rams had both of these and a little extra to defeat the Panthers by the score of 49-7. The win kept the Rams in first place in the Eastern Division of the Ontario Football Conference. Ottawa is still in second spot just one point behind and only a singlepoint ahead of Verdun. And only two games left for each of'them in the regular season. Jim McLeod went all the way for the Rams to prove to Coach Ed Mitchell that he has two good starting Quarterbacks.

Since these plants will not withstand freezing weather it is important to bring them into the house before the first frost. However. it is wise to bring poinsettias in a little earlier since they dislike the cool, fall weather. Christ- mas cactus and azaleas need the cooler temperatures to help set buds. Even some normal outdoor bedding plants can give extra months of bloom in- doors. Fibrous begonias. geraniums and impatiens can be pinched back severely, potted up and brought in before frost touches them. Fed every two weeks on "CIL Geranium Food" and set in a sunny window. They can go on dooming all winter. If they are still in the pot. moving is a relatively simple task. However. if thev have been planted in the garden greater care is required in moving them. The first step actually, is to prepare the pot. The following pertains primarily to the common, earthen. planting pot• but all pots should be cleaned. Clean thoroughly and remove any salt or lime encrustations. As a final step sterilize the lxtt to kill any insect eggs or disease germs. You can use boiling water or a dilute solution of household chlorine bleach. Pot size is also important The root system of a plant has roughly the same spread as the foliage. so it is im- portant that the pot be large enough. as wide assess as the foliage spread. If the plant was in a pot all sum- mer it may have outgrown that pot size and require re- pot ti ng Soil is also important. You can purchase a potting plant mixture. or make up your own. A good sal mixture consists of one part coarse sand, one part sterilized soil, and one pert well decayed plant material icornpostt. or pea t mass. Good drainage in the pot is essential• but many home gardeners make the error of Mocking; the bottom of the pot. Put a good layer of broken crockery or coarse gravel on the bottom. "rurface" a porous calcined clay, has many uses for the home gardener. It can make up 1/3 of the sal mix, and a one inch layer m the bottom of the pot will aid in "drown proofing" the plant. Dig up the plant carefully so the roots remain in a ball of sal and plant at the ap- propriate height in the pot. Place the plant in the pot so the surface of the soil will be an inch below the rim of the pot to allow for watering. Firm down the soil around the root ball. With the plant potted, now is the time to cut off all discolored or dead blossoms and leaves. Destroy these as they may carry disease spores or insect eggs. Water the plant well. Since feeding is necessary as well as watering, for a healthy plant, it is recommended that a solution of one teaspoon of "Green Elf" per quart of water be prepared and used. This will help the plant Pools. For further information concerning all of the above programs call the Recreation office at 438-7411. recover from the shock of transplanting. By using this solution every two or three weeks in lieu of a normal watering you are assured of meeting the continuing feeding requirements. Protecting potted plants in the Muse from insects by spraying is sometimes in- convenient due to lack of suitable equipment, or inadequate space or ven- tilation. A simpler method is to apply "CIL SLTK" as a roi Idrench, whereby a solution is soaked into the soil. The systemic portion of the mix is taken up by the plant roots and enters the leaves and sterns in the sap system. Sucking insects such as aphids, leafminers, mites and w•hiteflies are controlled as they attempt to feed on the plant. For bromeliads, carnation, chrysanthemum, crassula, Easter Lily. impatiens. kalanchoe. and orchids, mix one teaspoons "SLIK" in on qua rt 140 oz. I of w•a ter a rid slowly pour 1/4 cup 14 oz. 1 of this solution onto moist soil in each 6" pot. For most other flowering and foliage plants use two teaspoons per quart of water. Drench with 1 cup solution per 6" pot. Pots larger or smaller than the 6" example will take more or less of the same solution according to size. Examples. 114 cup p•r a" pot. and 2 cups per to" pot. It is suggested that plants moved in from the garden or re -potted plants be given the first application of 'SLIK" two or three days after thev have been moved . Allow a t least six weeks between applications of "SLIK". Incidentally. most house plants require about four hours of sunshine per day. or the equivalent in artificial light. This should be taken into consideration when deciding where to place plants in the house. Free Films At Library The whole family can enjoy -Films for Stoppers" Fri..

Sept. l8th, 1975 THE NEWS/POST Page 15 Do You Remember Roma And Newt? by Arthur Joynt Agincourt was a quiet, peaceful hamlet at a time when Roma and Newt came to stay. Stately tall maple trees aligned the streets and children played freely well outside the pace of the metropolitan area. It was a short time before the five -hundred or so population of Agincourt accepted Roma and Newt, but accept them they did. From then on it was a ,joyous occasion that lasted about thirty-seven years. Roma, a most charming lady and affectionate mother, was always an in- fluence to those around her. Like her own mother before her, she was always there to help someone. I suppose those of you who knew her were delighted by the ec- static home cooking that she would create and share. It was always a joy for her to be with friends in the church groups, and all others who came into contact with her. Newt began his agency at the f'NR station in Agin- court. I have seen so many old letters commenting how helpful he was to this one and that one around the station.

Life on the West Shore is nice. But what's even nicer is that we are so close to some of the very fine attractions that Pickering Township has to offer. Last weekend our family attended `History In Action' at the Brougham Museum. We had such a grand time that I'm very much tempted to offer a satisfaction or- money -back guarantee to every reader of the Pickering Post who promises to attend it next year. Most museums are musty, dry, and deadly dull. You wouldn't take your children - much less yourself- because you'd be bored stiff. All of you. But as the title indicates. they show you history in action. They don't just show you a contraption thatwas used to make apple cider in the old days; they have the contraption out in the back yard MAKING apple cider. You can watch how they do it and for ten cents you can treat yourself to a fresh cup of real apple cider. Now, THAT'S history in action - you learn something,you can watch it in action, and you can even taste it. This year, an added attraction is a trio of country musicians who, like travelling troubadors, did a few tunes in each of the several buildings on the grounds and reallyadded to the old-timeatmesphere.The leader was fiddler Bill Clark.

GET WELL WISHES - To Harry Vandenburg of Dixie Road north who is back in hospital. I am sure you will be home real soon Harry because they simply can't keep a good man down. And also to Suzanne Sekulich of Olivia who is now home from hospital. Hope you are home to stay this time and will soon be your old bouncing self again.

Whatever your taste in music, you could not have stopped your toe from tapping when you listened to this trio. Bill Clark, gap-toothed and wearing overalls, was grinning all the time and so obviously enjoying himself that you could not help but enjoy yourself, too. At one point, they were fiddling furiously in the recon- structed blacksmith shop and playing encore after encore. Finally they tired; and Bill Clark said, "Well, we need a break folks, so that's the end of the music for a while." Regretfully, the crowd turned to leave. One of the departing and very appreciative audience was a well dressed Torontonian. He shouted over his shoulder, "Oh, no, it's not the end of the music - I'm taking it with me!" He turned on his tape recorder,and the sounds of Turkey In The Straw blared out as he left the building. Bill Clark laughed. His nephew Keith laughed. Art and banjo player laughed. We all laughed. Total strangers smiled at each other. It was a very special moment: and very moving. By George, I wi Il of fer your money back if you do not enjoy the Museum's History In Action days next fall.

Read some interesting statistics in a mailing received from People Or Planes, the anti -airport organization. P.O.P. states that the 18,000 acres wanted by Ottawa for a Pickering airport, previously fed 40,000 people annually. Each year, the area sent the following produce to Toronto: 4 million quarts of milk, 200,000 dozen eggs, $2.25 million dollars worth of beef at 1971 prices, 375,000 pounds of pork, 45,000 bushels of wheat, 30,000 chickens. And the region had the highest yield of corn per acre in Ontario. Small wonder the price of food is rising. A TRIBUTE TO ERNIE Speaking of People or Planes, a large gathering was held Sunday afternoon at the Ernie Carruthers' farm just north of the 8th Concession, Ernie has been firm hold-out against the federal government's attempt to wreck the historic home in which he was born nearly 70 years ago. But he's going to have to move. He has been subject to harrassment and threats - including that of a fine of $5000 a day if he does not leave the home in which he was born - so he is being forced to move out. Just to encourage Erne to move out, the federal Ministry of Transport has been trucking the rubble from the Pickering Township homes it has destroyed - and dumping it on the fertile field of Ernie's farm. The afternoon was intended as a tribute to Erne and his family; and the response was impressive. We noticed many West Shore people there. to say nothing of people from Toronto. Hamilton and elsewhere. They were coming and going all afternoon, so it was hard to get an accurate count; but there must have been at least 3,000 visitors all untold if not more. conservatively. P.O.P. gave Ernie and his family a lovely etching of his home done by local artist Jane Buckles. But several of the people in the audience wept at the thought that this fine man, who's the sa It of the earth to anyone who's ever met him, will be left with only a picture instead of the birthright he inherited. worked. developed, earned, and thought he owned. y ....
