Ellie has lived in Ajax for one year, in fact, one of her reasons for joining the Business and Professional Women's Club was to meet women from the Community. In the Public Relations Committee, Ellie is responsible for the Profiles of all members. So all the good, bad, or indifferent said about you was done by Ellie. Ellie is employed by the Durham Board of Education and is head of Family Studies at Dun- barton High School. For those of you ( like myself) who do not understand some of today's titles, that is a varied Home Economic course. Ellie teaches Grades 9 - I3. She enjoys her profession and tells me that young boys seem too inhibited to enter this course, however, at the senior level the sexes are more equally distributed. This expanded_sourse HELPS deals with such diverse 1JOissues as textiles, food and �HE� nutrition, child care, ex- pected child behaviour. DISASTER housing, renting, budgeting and consumerism (being 4STRIKES' an intelligent shoppers. I the senior level Grade t33 • she also teaches sociology (ethnic groups etc.). The favourite part of Ellie's task is students who are full of enthusiasm and �w initiative. Her pet beef is students who don't want to be at school and unin- terested people. Ellie took her B.A. and B.Ed. in Windsor, Ontario. Her Masters of Education she passed in 1979 in Toronto. Ellie has taught school for nine years, mainly Home Economics with Mathematics as her second subject. Ellie's outside interests include Music and Drama. She is an active member of the Ajax Lyric Theatre and sings in the choir of St. Paul's United Church in Ajax. She also enjoys cycling, interior decorating, crafts and The Municipal Election by Mary Zecchiee As the municipal election of Nov. loth draws closer, more announcements are being made by those aspiring to seek political offices. Pickering has not had a Mayoralty race since October 1973 when George Ashe, successfully defeated incumbent John Williams. The recent announcements by both Councillor Don Kitchen and Councillor Ken Matheson are welcomed by us. When political seats go unchallenged, the community suffers. The acclaimed candidate may be a good politician, but he is not there because he has been given a mandate or because voters have made a clear choice as to who they want as their representative. If this mayoralty race brings several candidate hopefuls to the fore for this Nov. loth election, it should prove to bring the voters of the town a clear choice for the kind of person who will hold the top job on Town Council in best representing the communities needs. Pickering is one of the fastest growing communities in Ontario and with its close proximity to Metropolitan Toronto has still managed to maintain a small town at- mosphere combining the old and the new. The town's population has increased to about 38,000 people over the last 7 years. In this election voters will be, not only voting for a mayoralty candidate for the first time since October 1973, but because so many new residents have moved to Pickering over the last several years, many voters will be voting for the candidates for the first time. Pickering's future is bright for growth and prosperity, but its growth should not be so as to take away from the uniqueness which is all of its own. Voters should make themselves aware of the candidates, who they are, what they stand for, and what they see for the town in the future. gardeuing. As stated before. Ellie Joined the Business and Professional Women's Club to meet women in the Ajax - Pickering area preferably ones in different professions or businesses other than her own. She is also interested in doing part-time consulting and felt the contact would be beneficial. Ellie voiced her interest in Human Interest topics, different and unusual professions, interesting leisure activities and how to budget time more beneficially. I think from the above Ellie does the latter very well. Professional Women Meet The Business and Professional Women's Club of Ajax - Pickering held their regular meeting on Thurs. Sept. 18 at the Ranch Steak House on Commercial Avenue in Ajax. Guest Speaker was house member Mary Lisko, author of "The Happy Cooker": "The Happy Looker" (Sub -title: "The Happy Cooker's Diet Book-): and "Cooker With to buying the Old Green River Church from the Ontario Land Corporation as a community centre for the Green River residents. The old church is part of lands expropriated by the Province and is now up for sale and the residents would like to have the town's support in asking the Ontario Land Cor- poration to hold off any sale of this property until a feasibility study is carried out into acquiring the church as a community centre. Dr. Michael Wiles said "the residents needed a focal point for a growing community" Any social events and community functions are now held in someone's house or at the former Green River School. There is no church or school in the area now. Councillors Laurie Cahill and Ken Matheson were concerned with the total cost of buying the church and renovating it to meet municipal standards. Dr. Wiles estimated the total cost at about f6Q000 to $60,000. Mayor Jack Anderson asked Dr. Wiles if the residents had looked at a better facility like the farmer Green River School as the costs would be comparable in view of the renovations that would have to be made to the church. Dr. Wiles replied that the historical value of the church was more ap- propriate for the com- munities' need. Councillor Gerry Fisher informed the meeting that the church was built around 1840 and upgraded in 1952. Councillor Don Kitchen said that the problem was that other areas in the town, such as Glendale, did not have community centres. What council had to do was set a policy of establishing community centres in areas. Executive Committee approved a motion to support the Green River residents' request but the motion has to be presented to the next council meeting for final approval. Class" (Sub -title: "The Happy Cooker's Cooking School"). Mrs. Lisko's subject was her career as a writer, the trials and tribulations of marketing her own product, along with an introduction to her latest publication "The Easy Cooker" (Sub -title: "More Delicious Dishes From The Happy Cooker Created Especially For Young Cooks" i. Thea Driesschen and Joanne Tate, Pickering - Ajax Librarians, presented a most interesting program at the August luncheon.

Martino Funeral Home Limited 4115 Lawrence Ave. E. 281-6800 just west of Kingston Rd , Page 2 THE NEWSIPOST Wed. Sept. 24, 1980 Opinion a page for expression for you and us Approves Act A three man Commission, appointed by the Provincial Government to review The School Boards and Teachers Collective Negotiations Act. 1975, (Bill 100), has confirmed that the Act is a valuable tool in settling school board - teacher contract negotations. However the Commission has recommended several changes to the Act which it feels would improve the collective bargaining process. One of the recommendations would provide the Education Relations Commission with the power to recommend the end of a strike when it believes an irresolvable impasse has been reached. Bill 100 now allows the Education Relations Commission to petition the Lieutenant Governor to end a strike or lockout when it believes the students' education is in jeopardy, and that should be retained, the report states. The Commission's report also recommends that on ter- minating a strike or lockout the Education Relations Commission be given the power to recommend the length of the agreement and the method of settlement be it final offer selection, arbitration or some other method. In its report. made public last week, the Commission stated that if would like to recommend an end to work to rule by teachers but did not know how it could effectively do so in law. The Commission appointed last October was chaired by Dr. B. C. Matthews. President of the University of Waterloo and included Dr. Roderick Fraser, Department of Economics Queen's University and Dr. John Crispo, Faculty of Management Studies, University of Toronto. In releasing,. the report, Education Minister Bette Stephenson said, "This important review of the legislation covering the negotiations process requires careful study by all trustees, teachers, parents and students. I welcome public reaction". The Minister said that she would be meeting with the provincial organizations this fall to discuss the report. Also included in the report's 49 recommendations were: - Bill 100 should provide an option for the parties, by mutual agreement, to choose a non -sanction route and to waive their rights to strike and lock out. - Bill 100 should be amended to provide a more extensive list of criteria to be considered by fact finers, arbitrators and selectors in making awards. - mediators. fact finders, arbitrators and selectors should have the authority to enforce adherence by the parties to reawmable timelines The Arithmetic Of Birds by Ron Ried, Rederatioo of Ontario Naturalists Right now, in mid-August, we are surrounded by more birds than at arty other time of the year. In the process of preparing for migration, our summer birds are much quieter now. and their colours more subdued, but their numbers are swelled by the addition of this year's crop of nestlings The American bird population each autumn has been estimated at somewhere close to 20 billion. By next spring that number is cut in half, so that each year's crop of young birds is matched by a corresponding mortality, and the over-all population stays the same. That means each year about 10 billion birds perish across America - but where do they all go' The vast majority fall victim to natural predation, and end up feeding the hawks and owls. foxes and raccoons, and other predators that depend on meat for their survival. There's nothing sinister about that - predation is a part of nature. and without this natural balance, we would soon tire of a robin population that doubled every year' Others die in natural catastrophes, such as ice storms or wildfires. And a relatively small number - about 2%. are killed by the activities of man, according to Richard Banks of the C.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. As you might expect. hunting is the largest part of this man-made mortality, with about 120 million casualties per year. Collisions with cars, T.V. towers, and picture windows are another significant loss, amounting to about 60 million birds a year. But despite their publicity, pollution disasters such as oil spills cause relatively few deaths, in the order of 15,000 per year. While we should still be doing our utmost to prevent the unnecessary and cruel deaths caused when birds and oil mix, it is perhaps useful to remember that the less dramatic changes wrought by man, such as habitat losses and high-speed highways, are far more important factors in the long run.

(later changed to Reesor Rd.). Faye lived "just up the road" at Locust Hill. They were married on Sept. 10, 19.30, in the church manse at Markham and moved into the Reesor family homestead where they have lived ever since. To mark their 50th wedding anniversary their only daughter Merna Burkholder, along with her husband Grant, held an Open House at Zion United Church, lith concession and Steeles Ave., on Sun. Sept. 14 from 2 to 5 p.m. The Reesors are long time members of Zion United Church which celebrated its 125th anniversary this year. About 250 friends, neigh- bours and relatives dropped in to offer congratulations to Mr. & :Ctrs. Reesor. Following the Open House Mr. & Mrs. Burkholder held a buffet supper at their home for the immediate family. Mr. Reesor still does some crop farming and enjoys walking and working on his land. Mrs. Reesor enjoys making quilts. They have two grandchildren, Betty Faye and Brian. Scarborough Mayor Gus Harris raised the United Way flag at the Scarborough Civic Centre on Sunday to kick off the annual campaign for funds. One of the worries of organizers of the fund is that the overwhelming enthusiasm of people to give money to Terry Fox and the cancer society will slow donations to the United Way. Metro Toronto's target was over $18 million last year and this time over $24million is really needed. Emphasis by spokesmen at the Sunday event was that we all need UW services at one time or another in our lives, so it is essential to give to it. Scarborough Salary Vote Scarborough Council has raised its 1981 salary scale. The vote at council on Mon. Sept. 15th was as follows: For Aldermen to get $21,725. All voted for it except Mayor Harris and Alderman David Winkworth. For Controllers to get $28,275. All voted for it except Mayor Harris and Alderman David Winkworth. For Mayor to get $39,550. Against: Mayor Harris: Controller Harrison and Alder- men Winkworth and Fulton. The rest voted for the salary increase. Some observers are worried about the millions pouring into the cancer society's coffers. It would seem to us that the society should come up with a very visible scheme with which ordinary adults and children could identify. Perhaps a sersies of scholarships to keen scientific researchers at university who would go to a specific cancer research clinic would be worth considering. Let's not disappoint the millions of donors for Terry Fox. (Photo - Bob Watson I . Girls! Boys! Want to earn at least 11 per week? Join The NEWS/POST organization and become a carrier!

The bad news is that it looks like next week will see the problem returning and this time the return date could be a long way off. It is a good thing that the government is not being run as a business for what other employer could allow his customers to be treated with so little consideration. As I said last week, if the mail stops there is always the telephone. This column is anxious to tell our readers about the en- tertainment values that are available so very close to home. A SEASON OPENING Last Thursday night I attended the opening of "A Little Night Music" at the Fairview Library Theatre. It was this season's first production by the very talented Stage Centre people and as usual it is a superb performance. When you first enter the theatre you are overcome by the open stage setting. After a while you wonder why. It is simplicity itself. A giant white birch tree stands at each side of the stage, a black curtain covers the back wall. the floor is covered by a green cloth spattered with white and gold paint to represent the forest floor and yet it overwhelms. Much the same can be said for the musical itself. The publicity brochure described the show as, "a stylish celebration of romantic love, a fairytale for adults" and so it is. It is set in an enchanted forest grove in Sweden at the turn of the century. Improbable as it may sound, furniture is brought on and off stage and im- mediately the forest becomes bedrooms, dining rooms and theatres. And it all appears quite natural. The music by Stephen Sondheim has an unusual quality about it Almost by Gordon Ashberry ethereal at times. The arrangements and voicings are extremely difficult to play. The orchestral ac- companiment is vital and the timing must be per- fection. The 25 piece orchestra directed by Peter Wall do a magnificent job. I agree that it would have spoiled the illusion, but it is too bad that the musicians are out of sight during the whole evening. The one number that has come out of the show, `Send In The Clowns" is sung with understated drama by Val Thomas. The other musical numbers are not so well known but are equally effective. They all have that strange, almost eerie, quality that make this composer so distinctive and it is a credit to the cast that their renditions of them were of the first quality. It would be unfair to single out any of the players for special kudos. This was one of the best balanced per- formances that we have seen in some time. Each port was played as if it was the most important part in the play. The proper at- titude for any actor to have. There was riot a throw- away character on stage. The vocal attributes must be noted for when it is necessary to combine singing and acting talents. quite often one or the other suffers. That is not the case this time. After ten years of sear- ching for the right vehicle for his "waltz" musical, Sondheim recalled Ingmar Bergman's famous film, "Smiles of a Summer Night" and with the aid of Hugh Wheeler the book for "A Little Night Music" was written. Garth Allen. the Artistic Director, has been able to maintain much of that Bergman touch and transfer it to the stage. It makes the unreal become real and the real become unreal Fanta, and reality become one. The blend makes for a truly delightful theatrical experience. You leave the theatre with goose bumps. The show continues until Oct. 4th. Do not miss this one. To be sure of a seat call 225-6550 for reser- vations. HELP WANTED The Victoria Players have started rehearsals for their first show of the season. It will be "The Curious Savage" by John Patrick and it is slated for Wexford Collegiate for Nov. 26th to 29th. They have a couple of problems however. They have many willing workers but they do need some expertise, expecially with the building of scenery. So if anyone who has enough knowledge of the hammer and saw department to take over a crew is in- terested, please call Mrs. Feidler at 491-1394 or 491- 6092. She would also like to hear from someone who would like to take over the duties of Stage Manager. It sounds like a great opportunity for someone who would like to learn the craft. ANOTHER OPENING Our good friend and one of the best directors around, Ken Albanese, is reviving an all-time favourite at Playhouse 66 next Thur- sday. The show is Joseph Kesselring's comedy thriller "Arsenic And Old Lace", and if you have not seen it before make an effort to catch this production. The play is about two, slightly odd or should I say, eccentric, old ladies who poison destitute old men and have them buried in their cellar. It does not sound very amusing and when it first appeared on Broadway it did cause quite a stir. To say the least it was a new kind of humour. When I first saw it, the cont'd. on page 11 Wed.

Here we have such a variety of terrain that we can enjoy all kinds of outdoor activities. There s plenty of land for everybody, yet some people insist on trespassing on private property. To protect the rights of farmers and other property owners, important new legisla- tion has toughened the law against trespass. Now trespassers can be fined up to $1,000 and may also be ordered to pay for damages they have caused. Even when there are no signs prohibiting trespass, entryis prohibited to gardens, orchards, vineyards, land under cultivation, fenced fields and pasture land. On other types of land, where red markings appear on gates, be permitted. It is your responsibility to find out what those activities are.

This is only the third time in the club's more than 50 year history that a book written by a Canadian has been chosen as a main choice. THE CHINESE will be P ublished in Canada by ollins Publishers in November. They have purchased the Canadian and British rights. The American rights have been sold to Simon and Schuster. Financial details in fullare not available but it is known that the book has earned the author nearly $100.000 and that's prior to publication! We should also mention SHIBUMI by Trevanian (Ballantyne Paperbacks) . It's the story of the world's highest paid assassin. Occidental by birth but Oriental by accident of culture, Nicholai Hel is able to reconcile violent death with all the very finest of the Japanese ethos ... which the author has seen fit to regard as Shibumi, thereby revealing that his "research-, if any, has been not extensive. Another example is his statement that the classic game of Go is to ptulosophers and warriors what chess is to ac- countants and merchants. The statement is unquestionably true but Trevanian has con- veniently overlooked the fact that :North American Tri -Dimensional Chess soars far above either of them. Still, one mustn't cavil There is much in Shibumi of interest and it most certainly is filled with do and exotic sex. One wonders how many readers are going to her- niate themselves as they attempt the exploits isexplo,ts?) of Stage IV lovers. Not really a bad book and it might even have been a very good one had not the author apparently tired of his task about too pa Thes from the end. e denoument is just a bout the most cockamamie imaginable and completely destroys the pleasure that the the reader experiences up to that point. Shibumi manyquarters and it could well be that our disapp-- pointment in it is ell founded. Better read it for yourself and see what you think but don't be surprised if you find yourself annoyed or even angry when you come to the end of it. SOLO by Jack Higgins (Collins) does not have an Oriental background but we want to mention it here because it too deals with the matter of international terrorism and its prac- titioners. Also, we can't help feeling that author Higgins was influenced by She umi when he wrote it. There are too many similarities of plot and characterization, it seems to us, to be mere coin- cidence. The international assassin in Solo is John Mikali who is know as the Cretan Lover because he SC the patois of Crete when he performs his acts of murder. Now,thenk for a moment friends. What is the most difficult thing for a professional assassin acting alone to do? Give up'. Well, it's crossing national borders.

Sept. 24,19M THE POST Papa 7 Banffmiasper by Tony Sloan It was a sunny March Sunday morning and the shuttle bus service up the switch -backs from the valley floor parking lot to the high bowl runs at Sunshine Village above Banff, Alberta were still running at 10 a.m. At Sunshine Village, as alpine skiers who have been there during the past 40 years will readily attest, it takes a little time to get up there but it's worth every impatient moment. The reasons are, of course, a wide choice of fun -run trails and, traditionally, the best lift -serviced snow conditions in western Canada. Sunshine, for all its at- tributes has, over the years, pursued a program of facility development best described as gradual. Several years ago it was the Great Divide chairlift. The major item in the immediate offing is the recently approved high speed gondola. Extending from the valley parking lots, the gondola eliminates the expensive and time consuming bus ride up to the lifts and base lodges and reduces the vehicular traffic on the existing W road. The new Teepee Town triple chairlift makes accessible both novice and expert terrain. A T -bar adds to the novice area and provides a much needed alternate access route to the Great Divide chairtift. The lower terminal of the G.D. is already above tree line. and the lift extends right up to the top of the continental divide. Rumor has it that the terminal attendant at the top end of the Great Divide chair plays the harp. Mount Norquay, the nearest (and steepest) to town, offers you a good cross section of terrain with a pair of well mogulled runts down from the Tea House for per- fecting your short radius turns. Norquay, purchased recently by the Sulphur Mountain Gondola Com - parry. reported no major expansion plans other than a tentative application for a licensed lounge in the Tea House at the top of the main chair. The giant lake Louise layout with its two - mountain (Whitehorn - Temple) , three -face, trail and lift system is the largest lift -serviced alpine ski area in Canada. Total vertical drop is 975 cm ( 3,250 feet), second only to Whistler Mountain in British Columbia at 1,284 in (4,280 feet). The recent installation of the. Glacier triple chair incteased the lift capacity from the Whiskey Jack base lodge to 720 in ( 2,400 feet) per hour. Expansion and im- provements to the Whiskey Jack base lodge includes the. North Face licensed dining room and the "piece de ' resistance," the Sitz - mark Lounge. This cozy little corner lounge with its two-sided p .,ire -window view over looKing ..,e 5.,A. -....she T -bar is t?he snuggest haven for a spot of relaxation you are likilly to find at day's end. The Sitzmark seats about 70 guests and features a latae fume -hooded circular copper fireplace as the cerjtrepiece for the scene. The Post Hotel, hard by the Pipestone Lodge, opened its Outpost Bar & Lounge, which features music and dancing, with a catering capacity of 50 members of Lake Louise cabaret society. The great -skiing -but - little -else image of yesteryear, at Lake Louise, is beginning to fade with the gradual addition of new base accommodation and services. Banff remains one of the prettiest Alpine towns in the world. Nearly every year something new is added or improved to make the scene a little more enjoyable to visiting skiers. Banff Park Lodge primarily designed as a convention centre, and located on the banks of the Bow River in downtown Banff, offers a complete range of first class ski week holiday services at the most scenic address in town. In the Silver City Foot & Beverage Co., on Banff Avenue, as the name im- plies, the food and decor are reminiscent of an area mining town that existed briefly during the 1880s. The service and food, from homemade soup to old- fashioned prospectors' stew, is confidently recommended. A miners' saloon ad - joining the dining area plays rock. The Grizzly House and an expanded and much modernized Caboose Restaurant down at the railroad depot are notable, and the Buffalo Paddock Lounge in the Cascades Hotel is still the friendliest bar in town. If you haven't skied :Marmot Basin above and near Jasper. Alberta, you should, it's that simple. Three chairlifts and two T -bars carry you up through the forested mountainside, past the tree line to some of the finest, open slope and bowl skiing in the Canadian Rockies. There is novice and in- termediate terrain in abundance but the Knob Chair added the final touch to this fine ski area. Take either the Yellow T - bar or the Caribou Chair and ski down and away out wide on the Basin Run. The Knob Chair leads right up the spine of a lofty snow ridge, rimming a huge bowl. Deep powder runs off the crest make for the ultimate Marmot experience. Down in the valley, the Jasper Inn has added 72 more rooms, a pool and a sauna to soak out the aches. The disco is still sounding out at the Athabasca Hotel with the Marmot Cabaret at Marmot Motor Lodge in the east end offering a nice change of pace. Plans for a 40 -passenger charter service by Gateway Aviation from Edmonton's International Airport to the new airport at Hinton are afoot. The Hinton Airport is only 60.8 km 138 milest from Jasper and this makes those great Marmot Basin runs much more accessible to far away skiers this season.

Fuel -Economy Can Conserve Gas GAS TOTAL TOTAL PER GALLON GALLONS USED COST 1975 _ .80 363 $290 1980 $1.15 190 $217 SAVINGS 173 ($ 73) FEIKER GALLONS: MORE SA`vT4 S - As as example of the autoindustry's contribution to tic national goal of energy conservation, Ford of Canada recently prepared this surpris- mg eomparmon. In 1975. driving across Canada is a then -current model Ford Thunderbird would require about 363 gallons of gasoline for the 4,725 -mile route over the Trains -Canada Elighway. To derive the some distance today in a 19M 716underbird would require just I" gallons of gasoline. At $1.1S per gallon, the saving of 173 gaYws represent a significant cash saving to Canadian consumers. Canadian consumers could save an estimated 2.1 billion gallons (9.5 billion litres) of gasoline worth nearly $2.4 billion if all cars on the road were as fuel-efficient as the 1980 models, according to an automobile industry execu- tive. The new generation of fuel-efficient ars of the 1980's provides Canada and Canadian consumers a unique opportunity to work toward a national goal of energy self-sufficiency, says Ford of Canada presi- dent Roy F. Bennett. '?he ten million cars on the road in Canada today would consume 2.1 billion fewer gallons of gasoline in one year alone, if they had the fuel economy of 1980 cars," he said. Fuel -economy improve- ments in the company's 1980 -model cars and trucks alone are projected to save consumers more than $18 million in fuel costs and conserve more than 18 million gallons (81.8 million litres) of gasoline per year, he added. Ford of Canada, with a corporate average fuel economy of an estimated 26.2 miles per imperial gallon (10.8 litres per 100 kilometres), has enjoyed a 15 per cent improvement in its fleet average over 1979. "To the best of my know- ledge, that is the best per- formance of any domestic car company in the indus- try," Mr. Bennett said. "That is particularly impor- tant if Canada is to achieve a goal of reducing our dependence on foreign oil. "We are particularly proud of our leadership in the area of fuel economy," Mr. Bennett added, "and savings we think this means for consumers." For example, he said, the owner of a four or five-year- old automobile could save from $400 to $600 annually in fuel alone by trading up to a 1980 model. Mr. Bennett provided an illustration of how improv- ed fuel efficiency has more than offset the higher price of gasoline: "In 1975, when unleaded gasoline cost, on average, about 80 cents per gallon, I would have used 363 gall- ons of gas for a total ex- penditure of S2% to drive a new Thunderbird the 4,725 mile Trans -Canada High- way from Victoria, B.C. to St. John's, Nfld. "If I drove the same dis- tance today in a comparable 1980 model Thunderbird or Cougar XR- 7 , even with gasoline at pries averag- ing 11.15 per gallon, I would spend just $217 and use only 190 gallons of gasoline. "For the consumer, the savings would be S73, If you think fitness is a distant goal, consider this: you can walk all the way. despite the 42 per cent in- crease in the price of gas over that five-year period, and the savings in fuel consumption would be a significant 173 gallons." Mr. Bennett said the im- proved fuel efficiency of Ford's 1980 model cars and trucks would continue to provide annual savings to consumers. 'The owner of a 1975 -model Ford LTD or Mercury Marquis, based on average driving of 12,000 miles, would use 833 gall- Do«AR unsr: ons of gasoline at a cost of approximately $900. "With a 1960 -model LTD or Marquis, which have a combined city/highway rating 25.2 miles per gallon fuel consumption for 12,000 miles would be reduced to 476 gallons at a cost of approximately $500. 'The savings to the con- sumer would be $400 in the first year, or approxi- mately $1,600 over the four years that the average per- son keeps a car before trading" Mr. Bennett said. Watch for good values in best shopping months By Linda Willis. CA Every shopper needs a strategy - to take advantage of sales, to get the best price and the best value for money. To put a plan in action, .ou first decide- what You want to buy. Then youplot where you will buy it, when to bu. and how to pay. Sar you want to buy a dishwasher. Begin by doing research on the various brands to find out which ones stand up to the test of time. When You have narrowed your choice to one or two brands, look around for a store to buy from. You can start your store search by phoning around General financial adviet by members of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Ontario. to price the brands you are interested in. Also ask about delivery charges and what guarantees :ani warr- anties come with the prod- uct. The store you choose should also provide good service for repairs and exchange or refund. When should you buy? The best months in the con- sumer's calendar are Jan- uary and August. At these times, stores hold tradition- al sales on furniture and appliances, linen, china and end -of -season goods. You should also watch for semi-annual and store -wide clearance sales in major department stores. They are usually held in the fall and spring and are always well -advertised in local papers. Plan your purchases around the .ales, so that you can take advantage of the lower prices. If you are planning your purchases months ahead, you are also giving yourself time to save up some cash. When it comes time to pay, your best and cheapest bet is always cash. Any form of credit adds interest onto the ticket price. Before you pay out any money, there are a few essential questions to ask the salesperson. Ask if the item you want is likely to go on sale in the near future. If a sale is a week or two awav, some stores will give you advance benefit of the lower price. If the item you have just bought goes on sale a couple of days later, phone the store manager and ask if they will refund you the differ- ence between the full price you paid and the sale price. Ask if the store is willing to negotiate on prim between sale times. Some will lower their price on major items if you find the same product for less in another store. Finally, ask what the store's policy is on ex- change and refund. Do not ever get stuck with some. thing that is non -return. able. More often than not you can avoid paying the full ticket price by shopping wisely. Linda Willis is with Clarkson Gordon & Co., Toronto. Page $ THE NEWSIPOSY Wed.

Sept. 13. Last year the girls raised $300. It all started about six years ago when they held their first Fair for Muscular Dystrophy and raised $22. Kelly was only nine years old and her sister was six. The girls raised money for M.D. for two years and the last four years they have donated the money to the Arthritis Society for research. With the help of about seven friends they bake cookies, squares or cup- cakes, sell orange juice, coffee and hot dogs, have a white elephant and fish pond, paint clown faces and hold raffles on items donated by local mer- chants. One popular item is gift wrap and cards which they sell at bargain prices. These young people deserve recognition for their efforts. We have many more like them in our community making worthwhile contributions to society - let's hear about them too.

Few stories of outstanding courage and tenacity can match the one which has recently touched the hearts of millions of Canadians. The story of Terry Fox and his "Marathon of Hope" tells of how the inspirational efforts of a single individual can move the collective spirit of a nation and prompt a display of warmth and generosity such that is rarely witnessed in or amongst nations. Terry's message of the need to increase our drive in the fight against cancer has been heard in many corners of the earth. During the five hour telethon held a few weeks ago in tribute to the B.C. runner, over $12 million was raised while funds continue to pour into the Canadian Cancer Society. While a singular cure for cancer has not yet been found, many positive advances in treatment and diagnosis have been made. Of course, research continues everyday into seeking answers to the many unknown factors associated with this universal disease. Provincial funding for cancer research in Ontario comes from two primary sources, proceeds from the Provincial Lottery and Ministry of Health budgetary revenues. In conjunction with the Provincial Lottery, I am pleased that our Ministry of Health through its Provincial Lottery revenues has set up a $1 million endowment fund for cancer research. Dedicated in the name of Terry Fox, these monies will go toward the financing of fellowships and program designed for mom and child and will include making and eating different nutritious snacks. Pick up a copy of the Fall brochure from the "Y" Centre in Sheridan Mall. DURHAM FEIIGOLD ASSOCIATION The Durham Feingold Association, an organization of parents of hyperactive children and those interested in nutrition, will be meeting at the East Shore Community Centre on Liverpool Rd., Pickering, on Thurs.

QUILTERS' GUILD The Rouge Valley Quilters' Guild will hold its first meeting on Sept. 30 at 8 p.m. at the West Rouge Community Centre, 270 Rouge Hills Dr. The Guild is a good way to introduce qu dters and their work to each other. It encourages ex- changing of ideas and it instructs and entertains through guest speakers and workshops. At this first meeting will be guest speaker Mary Conroy from Sudbury. author of "300 associateships for young researchers. This award to be administered by the Ontario Cancer Treatment and Research Foundation is in addition to the $2 million Provincial Lottery block grant awarded to the Foundation in 1977 to cover a period of three years. The Foundation, incorporated in 1943, was established to carry out a wide range of programs in the research, diagnosis, and treatment of cancer. Further to the Lottery grants, the Foundation has this year been allocated a $2,582,000 research grant, funded from the annual Legislative Vote. Projects currently being carried out at the Treatment and Research Foundation are examining diverse angles of the cancer problem. They include studies into breast, lung, cervical cancer and many others. World renowned for its cancer research and treatment programs, the Princess Margaret Hospital in Toronto has received an operating budget of $11,525,000 this year. Outside of research, the Ministry of Health has set aside 520,000,000 this fiscal year for cancer control programs and cancer clinics. I am certain all residents of Durham West join me in wishing Terry Fox a speedy recovery from his second bout of illness. By continuing our support for cancer research, we will shorten the distance between this terrible disease and its ultimate cure.
