This Space Could Be Yours For $6PFR WEEK will be working with schools to inform parents and children about the help line. The phone line began operating Sept 1 after a survey by the centre show- ed a huge increase in the number of calls from children aged eight to 1S. Vint says the Distress Centre received 364 calls from children during a five-month period, January to May, in 1964. In the previous seven months, only 123 calls were received. Although statistics were not kept on the reasons for the calls, Vint suggests that a general increase of stress in homes, often due to unemployment, cause pro- blems for the children. Volunteers will take a special watsbop to deal with the calls. `•Kidsline will be different from the regular Distress Centre lines because volunteers will com- municate with the children On their level,.' says Vint. "On the regular lines you must have active listening skills. With Kidsline, it'll be more important to control the conversation." The Kidsline is especially geared towards "latchkey.. children who return from school to an empty house while parents are at work. "Ever is a kid is just bared we can help," says Vint. A list of activities for children to amuse themselves with has been composed, as well as infor- mation an community pro- gram - says Kidsline can also act as a referral ser- vice for other agenc�ies. Volunteers are trained to act in an emergency sit Lw tion if a child has been in- jured or is in danger. If you are interested in volunteering for Kidsline, call Marg MacL.eer at 723.4461.

Sept. 12, 1994 Opinion a page for expression for you and us Post Mortem It is unfortunate that elections are not held to coincide with the publishing dates of weekly newspapers - but we unders- tand that decisions on dates are made for other reasons. This is our preamble to explain why our Wed. Sept. 5th issue did not report results of the election on Tues. Sept. 4th. For a lot of other reasons we consider the Tuesday after a Mon- day holiday a very poor day for voters to go to the polls when school is just going in etc. etc. In any event, the results were only just a few seats df our prwill of a mighty PC sweep. Millions of Canadians w be assessing over the next few months if the confidence they placed in the Conservatives is confirmed. Most voters seemed to want "a change" because they sensed that the Liberal government had "lost the way". Of course, television has put a new twist to elections because a party leader must look right - and that is how Mulroney defeated Turner. Aside from that we note that many excellent candidates were defeated because they were in the wrong party for this time. We also note that many voters are waiting for big results from Ottawa. When Brian Mulroney takes over next Monday Canadians, in our opinion, are expecting him to work on lowering in- terest rates by whatever method he chooses - but they must go down if private enterprise and small business is to create the jobs to reduce the unemployment roils. We also need a campaign to convince the average Canadian worker that he must work to get paid - and government paid workers can- not expect to continue getting much more than private enterprise workers. Which brings us to the cost of government - it must go down substantially. This means some two, miserable decisions and the voters are depending on the new PM to carry out these moves in the not too distant future. We wish the new government lots of hick! First Papal Visit Pope John Paul n arrived in Canada last weekend and marked the first time that a pope has visited this country. Judging by the crowds greeting His Holiness in the fast few days Ronan Catholics are turning out in great numbers at each location. To date Pope Jahn Paul has not Lauded on those issues which have Catholics divided - birth control and women's role in the church. His visit to Quebec highlights how people of that province have changed from 1962 when Quebec was the most devoted Roman Catholic part of the wail Today polls shave that Catholics there barely support the Pope's views on birth control, divorce, women in the priesthood and abortion. However. the Pope's visit may have some positive effects on the Roman Catholic church in Canada. and may even stimulate church attendance in all Christian denomina- The Pope may find some adverse reaction by Canadians to his wards to irant and Indian people where he backed their demands for land dolmas from the distant past. His Holiness chastised priests in Central America for getting ..too political" but he appears to be getting involved in our political affairs here unnecessarily. It will be interesting to see if the predicted one million Metro Toronto citixers jam into the Downsview area this week to participate in the huge mass.

Two omissions in this editorial have since been pointed out so I wish to rectify them The first error, pointed out by Alderman Joe DeKort, chairman of the Recreation and Parts Committee is that in relating the problems his committee is experiencing in making quorums due to the tardiness of some d its members, I failed to mention those members who in fact Show up on time. Of the seven members of this committee - DeKon, Mayor Gus Harris, Contrdkr Frank Faubert and Aldermen Scott Cavalier, Barry Christensen. Jim Mackie and Kurt Christensen, sty Barry Christensen, DeKort and Mackie are normally on time for meetings. The other complaint was from Alderman Edith Moo- tgomery for my huhre to mention the Planning Commit- tee. This was not a sin of omission. Ibis is one committee which is not faced with the same attendance problem as its other three slater committees. Planning Committee is made up of nine members - Alder man Edith Montgomery, the chairman, Mayor Gua Harris, cootr chars Joyce Trimmer and Ed Fulton and alderman Bill Belfontaine, Maureen Phnsloo, Shirley Eidt and John Mackie. Members of this committee are conscientious and attend most meetings. This is quite an accomplishment in view of the heavy workload this committee bears. Also its meetings are long, rarely lasting less than fair or five hours, it has even been known to go onto the wee haus of the morn. These nine members should be comnnended for choosing to sit on this committee and for their excellent at- tendance record. However, lest they get too swelled a heed, as some would say politicians are wont to do, I world like to remind them of last T'hursday's meeting where several members left for parts unknown leaving a bare quorum. About fan hours in- to the meeting, when one of the remaining members had to leave and was, in fact, almost an hour late for another meeting, the quorum was broken and the meeting had to be adjourned leaving one very important item of policy un- touched. .:,igt° i'aui Cosgmwe p(x;er -.kith relan%es and friends in front of the courthouse.

Eliminate Scarborough Transportation Co by Gay Abbate Scarborough should amend its official plan to delete all references to the Scarborough Transporta- tion Corridor and metro should immediately begin to sell off its lands within this corridor, a recently released planning report recommends. The study, almost a year in the making, concludes that there is no need for a transportation corridor running east/west along Scarborough's southern perimeter. This conclusion is based on two facts, the first being that Scarbortough has reached between 80% and 90% of its projected Popula- tion. The second reason is that the population and travel projections of the -60's and 70's were too high. The deletion in the official plan and the sale of lands within the corridor would remove the uncertainly C near the corridor have been living with for over 20 years since a Scar- borough Expressway was first proposed and included in the official plan. The report also recom- Scarborough Wrestling With Front Yard Parking by Gay Abbate The city of Scatfiamugh is trying to deal with the pro- blem of cars parked illegal- ly an front yards with a new policy which would make such parking legal in cer- tain uses. The policy was cine to be discussed last week by the Phumitng Committee but a lack of a quorum meant a postponement of this item. Presently, parking regulations vary from com- munity plan to community plan. Some plans allow parking in the front yard but only on a driveway. Others call for ate parking space per unit at site while still others permit parting in side or rear yards. Because them was some ambiguity in the wording of panting regulations in the community plans as they pertain to parking on the front yards, the city has not pmeecuted those who park vehides on their front yards, However, because of com- plaints several years ago -from sante aldermen about parking situations in their wands, a complete review of the city's parkintg policy was initiated. The new policy, if im- plemented by council, will requim all new units con- structed to contain a park- ing spew on site which is not located in the front yard. Parking will be per- mitted on the front yard on- ly where a parking space exists as part of a driveway. For properties which predate this new policy, a parking space will be per- mitted an the front yard. This space will have to be at least 9 ft. by 19 fL This new p is intend- ed primarily torresolve the parking problem in the ci- ty's older areas where houses were erected without driveways or with latter too small for cars. The policy also allows homeowners an busy main roads whose lot is more Um 59 ft. wide to construct circular driveways or bam- tme rheed turnarounds to snake access and egress a little easier.

The lands within the transportation corridor run east from Victoria Park to Kingston Rd/Highway 2A paralleling the Canadian National Railway line through most of its length. At Manse Rd. the corridor leaves the rail line and swerves north to highway 2A. The report's recommen- dations will conte as good news to the hundreds of Scarborough and Toronto residents who have long op- posed the consbwfionn of an sway. The Scarborough residents opposed it because of the impact on their own properties and the noise and pollution it would bring to adjacent communities.

Cakes will be judged on their appearance only, which should feature an historical theme. Special guest is the Hon. Margaret Birch, Centennia by MIIIa Hull What we need today, in our own church and elsewhere, is a Nehemiah. He had a vision of rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem during the time of captivity in Babylon. No odds would deter him from his appointed task. Once a decision is made much is required if one is to complete it. Dedication is very necessary and we, too, having decided to take a position in our church or in our commnmity must wort with true dedication to do that won to the very best of our ability. Unless we do, somewhere along the way, things will break down and the best Parliamentary Assistant to the Premier of Ontario, who will present the prizes. The three winning cakes will be auctioned and the others will be sold, with proceeds going to the socie- ty for its various projects. Donated items in the past have included art, books, I Rouge United results will not be achiev- ed. Nehemiah said he could not corse down from the wall for discussion because he must finish his work. May we, as he did, remain at our post, working hard despite all odds and perhaps our church and others will once again regain that place in the comminuty it once held, a place to come into and then go out again, our spirits replenished, and spread the Christian spirit in our small environment and eventually throughout the world.

Sept. 12, 1961 Bill Watt's Worlds AFTERMATH: About a fortnight or so ago, we complained bitter- ly in this space about our so-called postal service. The cut line was Itchybay Oatsnay. Well, we've final- ly received the delinquent items but are under no Wu- sion that our printed com- plaints had anything to do with it. Still simmering, we offer these further comments deleted from the earlier piece because of the ex- igencies of space. We had said and meant it that we're not concerned whether or not it (the Past Office) makes a profit. It is, after all, part of the necessary apparatus for the function of government and business and we should be expected to pay in taxes what ever it costs to run ef- ficiently. But, in heaven's name. let it so be run! Yes. we know that the ser- vice is supposed to be bet- ter than it was (it could hardly have been worse) and we have our own editorial comment to make. Ullbay itshay! IN PRINT: Speaking of aftermath (Gee, ain't we cute!) here are three books just receiv- ed from Doubleday, two of them on the day after the National election. All will be fully reviewed in due course but for now we're passing along the titles which we believe are singularly and deliciously appropriate though unintentionally so. They are A Rose Is A Rose (a tribute in cartoons and quotes to Pierre Elliot Trudeau), False Dawn; Women In The Age Of The Sun King and, our favourite, Pirates and Outlaws Of Canada. It's fanciful we realize but it seems to us that the cover illustration of Bar- BRIDLEWOOD PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH 2501 Warden Ave. Rev. Ed. McKinlay, B.A..

For information call Gall Beardmore 283-0404 (weekday avanlrga a sahrdays) tholomew Roberts, the "Puritan Pirate" might well be a depiction of Mr. Trudeau dressed for a fan- cy dress ball. Let us move on - to the relief of readers un- doubtedly - to a world of fancy dress opulence and good times. No we don't mean Ottawa; we refer to the world of operetta and have we a delightful book for you! From Doubleday, it's titled quite simply Operetta, A Theatrical We dislike quoting from cover notes but we are in complete agreement with one in particular and are deligbted to pass it on with the rueful comment that we wish we had written it. " T1»s book is an indispen- sable companion for anyone who loves the ir- resistible tunes, aching nostalgia and heady ef- fervescence of operetta. ( Richard) Taubner's thorough knowledge of the field - its history, musical cross currents and uproarious scandals - should make this fact -filled study the standard operet- ta reference book for years to come." We add a fervent Amen! If we have a criticism at all of the comments it is that they tend to make one think the book might be a dry scholarly one. It's cer- tainly scholarly and Mr. Trail' - , is the master of his subject. It is by no means, however. dry. The author has a breezy style and an ability to present facts in a way that smacks of discovery. Several times we found ourself mentally saying "I didn't know that!" And, of course, there are the of Players amend photographs As well, there are some achingy bons of original playbills and sheet music covers. You really should see the page 269 reproduction of the original sheet music cover for Emmerich Kalman's Grafin Maritza. Enchanting! We suggest that the book is best summed up by that single word, enchanting. Let us confess shamefaced- ly that we are late with this review but let us also offer our explanation. We have been so delighted with it that we lingered lovingly over it and quite frankly didn't realize that we were taking so long. It's that kind of book. Mind you, there should be no difficulty in securing it. This delightful volume will be around for a long, long time. Just don't ask to bor- row out copy! It has a per- manent place with a few other select joys on our night table. From sophistication to basics let's move on to Singing Our dory also from Doubleday. This is a soft cover collection of songs that reflect the history of our country and is a revised, enlarged edi- tion of the book that ap- peared in as Canada's Story Alan Mills and Edith Fowke produced the fust edition as an outcome of a CBC Radio series for which Miss Fawkes provided the script and on which Mr. Mills narrated and sang. Alan Mills has died in the interval since the original book appeared and while be is listed in courtesy as co-author he had no part in the preparation of this edi- tion. Still, it seems to us that his spirit hangs over it and we can almost bear him sing- ing some of the songs con- tained here. The music is presented as well as the lyrics and the stories behind the songs. If we Canadians can ever get back to the delightful custom of singing 'round the piano, this volume will find itself on many music racks. It will fit nicely there too. The spine is broad and the pages are supple making it easy to stand and conve- nient for page turning. All right then gather 'round while we belt out Pork, Beans and Hard Tack. How many out there remember that one from The Depression? How does one review a cook book? With great en- thusiasm, that's bow! Here are two on Italian Cuisine that we are pleased to recommend. The fust is yet another volume from Doubleday and it's titled Recipes From Pasquale's Kitchen. Pasquale Carpino is televi- sion's Singing Chef and his show is justly popular but we suggest that his book will become even more popular.There are recipes, of course, but in our view they are not the principal delight of the work. What we appreciate are the little side and footnotes with ex- planabours and tips. C resider this little gem. . When cooking garlic for a sauce, never let it brown in the oil as this will make it bitter. And how about this tip to ripen tomatoes? Put them in a paper bag with a small, ripe apple, then punch some air4wles in the sides of the bag to let out the carbon dioxide. The apple will quicken the ripening. When the tomatoes are soft, store them in the refulprator for up to two days. These are just two of the many pointers to be found. What is the best recipe? That's impossible to say but we can tell you our favourite. It's for Cotolette di Maiale Ripiene-Pork Cutlets stuffed with Ham and Cheese. We have no in- tention however, of disclos- ing where we purchase our prosciutto. The second is More Classic Italian Cooking (Ballantine) by Marcella Hanan who runs two of the world's great cooking schools in New York City and Bologna. What will you fmd in this book? More than we have space to mention. Among other features however you'll discover some splen- did examples of the very best farmhouse cooking such as pizza r stica ( pork and cheese pie in a crest) and escarole pie. There are also little- known fish, meat and vegetable courses from that unjustly neglected reservoir of honest cook- ing, the South. Desserts are never the strong suit for an Italian cook but you'll find some very nice things here all the same. There is one recipe from the authoress' own family for a cake made for dunking in sweet wine. The book ends with a recipe for a frozen tangerine surprise. We're nipping off soon for Frittata con le Palatie Fritteopen-faced omelette with pan-fried potatoes. Eat your heart out! BILLY D.

(Photo - Bob Watson) New Management Plan For Durham Board Of Education The Dunham Board of Education has adopted a new -management per„ designed to continually im- prove the quality of classroom instruction. Bruce Mather, who became Durham's Direc- tor of Education last winter, said excellence in instruction will produce graduates better able to think for themselves when they join the warkforce or pursue further studies. Mather said the new plan stresses the need to teach children complex ..think- ing skills", like problem solving and decision mak- ing- "Part of a program must be knowledge and informa- tion dissemination, part of it must be basic skills, but it cannot be exclusively that. We've got to teach ap- plication skills. Once we've given children the knowledge and the basic skills, we've got to let them use them," Mather said. -r hat is a fundamental belief of mine. If we as a society don't ensure that we're producing a thinking populace - a group of adults that can solve pro- blems - I think we're in serious difficulty." The development of think- ing skills among students depends on the ability of teachers to adapt instruc- tion to individual needs. Such adaptation is another of the management plan's goals. 'Teachers are being ask- ed to modify programs to the best of their ability to meet the needs of every child. Rather than hire more and mem teachers, we must teach the ones there now to be able to adapt their teaching to a diverse group of in- dividuals in the classroom. so that each student receives a r!asonably per- sonalized education," Mather said. Because staff develop- ment is the key to ex- cellence in classroom in- struction, the new special emphasis m � this area. "You achieve excellence through the growth of peo- ple. We have to do a better job of staff development with all employees, based on the belief that every employee, every profes- sional person wants to grow," Mather said. The implementation of the management plan will not mean significant spending increases, but there may be some costs involved in a staff development pro - _You can only achieve ex- cellence through the growth of people and there are certain costs associated with that." While the major emphasis of the new plan are ex- cellence of instruction and staff development, it also has important implications for other aspects of educa- tion in Durham. Among the most important is a com- mitment by the Board to the development of a core curriculum for all Durham schools. "'Ilhis doens't mean that every classroom teacher will teach the same subject at the same time in the same way to each child," Mather said. Rather, Durham curriculum outliers will indicate what the child is expected to learn. To measure the success of this "outcome based" lear- ning approach, the Board will develop a testing pro- gram specifically designed for the core curriculum as it is taught in Durham The plan also ells for the creation, by November 1985, of an "integrated cor- porate plan" to ensure coordination among the Board's various depart- ments.. In addition, the plan pro- vides for: - The clarification of the role of the school principal and the area superinten- dent; - A pilot project to deter- mine the effectiveness of school evaluations by a team rather than an in- dividual superintendent; - And the evaluation of the effectiveness of Durham's special education pro- grams- Responsibility ro- grams.Responsibility for im- plementation of each area of the management plan has been assigned to specific Board ad- ministrator. Mather noted that many of the most in?, portant initiatives - such as the teaching of thinking skills and staff develop- ment - are long term pro- jects that will only succeed with the full cooperation of all trustees and staff. "In a school system this large we have a variety of teams and the only way to "portrait of pioneer life" filled with heritage ac- tivities such as buttermak- ing, open hearth baking, GO-ALRT Contract Awarded Ontario Transportation and Communications Minister James Snow has announced the award of a contract for GO-ALRT pro- gram Pickering to Oshawa Section.

(Photo - Bob Watson) New Management Plan For Durham Board Of Education The Dunham Board of Education has adopted a new -management per„ designed to continually im- prove the quality of classroom instruction. Bruce Mather, who became Durham's Direc- tor of Education last winter, said excellence in instruction will produce graduates better able to think for themselves when they join the warkforce or pursue further studies. Mather said the new plan stresses the need to teach children complex ..think- ing skills", like problem solving and decision mak- ing- "Part of a program must be knowledge and informa- tion dissemination, part of it must be basic skills, but it cannot be exclusively that. We've got to teach ap- plication skills. Once we've given children the knowledge and the basic skills, we've got to let them use them," Mather said. -r hat is a fundamental belief of mine. If we as a society don't ensure that we're producing a thinking populace - a group of adults that can solve pro- blems - I think we're in serious difficulty." The development of think- ing skills among students depends on the ability of teachers to adapt instruc- tion to individual needs. Such adaptation is another of the management plan's goals. 'Teachers are being ask- ed to modify programs to the best of their ability to meet the needs of every child. Rather than hire more and mem teachers, we must teach the ones there now to be able to adapt their teaching to a diverse group of in- dividuals in the classroom. so that each student receives a r!asonably per- sonalized education," Mather said. Because staff develop- ment is the key to ex- cellence in classroom in- struction, the new special emphasis m � this area. "You achieve excellence through the growth of peo- ple. We have to do a better job of staff development with all employees, based on the belief that every employee, every profes- sional person wants to grow," Mather said. The implementation of the management plan will not mean significant spending increases, but there may be some costs involved in a staff development pro - _You can only achieve ex- cellence through the growth of people and there are certain costs associated with that." While the major emphasis of the new plan are ex- cellence of instruction and staff development, it also has important implications for other aspects of educa- tion in Durham. Among the most important is a com- mitment by the Board to the development of a core curriculum for all Durham schools. "'Ilhis doens't mean that every classroom teacher will teach the same subject at the same time in the same way to each child," Mather said. Rather, Durham curriculum outliers will indicate what the child is expected to learn. To measure the success of this "outcome based" lear- ning approach, the Board will develop a testing pro- gram specifically designed for the core curriculum as it is taught in Durham The plan also ells for the creation, by November 1985, of an "integrated cor- porate plan" to ensure coordination among the Board's various depart- ments.. In addition, the plan pro- vides for: - The clarification of the role of the school principal and the area superinten- dent; - A pilot project to deter- mine the effectiveness of school evaluations by a team rather than an in- dividual superintendent; - And the evaluation of the effectiveness of Durham's special education pro- grams- Responsibility ro- grams.Responsibility for im- plementation of each area of the management plan has been assigned to specific Board ad- ministrator. Mather noted that many of the most in?, portant initiatives - such as the teaching of thinking skills and staff develop- ment - are long term pro- jects that will only succeed with the full cooperation of all trustees and staff. "In a school system this large we have a variety of teams and the only way to "portrait of pioneer life" filled with heritage ac- tivities such as buttermak- ing, open hearth baking, GO-ALRT Contract Awarded Ontario Transportation and Communications Minister James Snow has announced the award of a contract for GO-ALRT pro- gram Pickering to Oshawa Section.

SqA. 12, 1964 Report a from Queen's Park By George Ashe, MPP Durham West During this time of economic recovery, many investors are reaching into their pockets to invest in, what appears to be, a "goldmine". A goldmine is in the eyes of the beholder and speculative ventures, such as "penny" mining stocks, may not always be a good investment. A speculative investment? .. Probably. - High pressure, unsolicited telephone calls, especially those claiming stock prices will probably increase? A sure sign to stay away, as the Securities AM prohibits all claims concerning the future price of a security. - Suggestions that you make an on -the -spot decision to pur- chase? An infornned decision requires a thorough reading of the prospectus. - In doubt about the salesperson, or the broker-dealer? If so contact the Ontario Securities Commission (OSC) at (416) spectus filed with the OSC. The front page of the firm's prospectus will reveal certain mandatory warnings. These could include: D a disclaimer that no securities commission in Canada has passed judgement on the merits of these securities, ii) a statement that there is no market through which these securities may be sold and, iii) an indication that purchasers may not be able to sell their shares at a later date. The prospectus also identifies the risk factors involved, how much of your investment dollar will go to the under- writer and promoter, how much will actually be used for the proposed enterprise, a description of the business, and the property of the share issuer - this valuable information should not be ignored, or glossed over with verbal pro- mises. The investor's key to judging possible risks lies in a careful reading of the prospectus. Stolt buyers have the right to cancel their purchase within 48 haus of receipt of the prospectus, thus lack of reading time is no excuse for a speculative investment. Approach investments with an informative and cautious mind, and you may find your goldmine in the business ac- tivity of this great province. Durham West - Notes I am pleased to advise a contract for the conshvction of 190 additional panting spaces at the Pickering GO station has been awarded to a Pickering firm - the Elirpa Construc- tion Company. Construction will begin immediately and is scheduled for completion in mid-October for a cost of si73,986.

Early Primary Education For those who are in- terested in the education of young children, the Ontario Ministry of Education would like them to express their views. Last year there were 50,300 four -year-olds and 115,200 five -year-olds enrolled in Ontario kindergartens. It has been forecast that the demand for higb quality programs and support services for families and young children will increase. To meet this challenge the ministry of education has established the Early Primary Education Pro- ject. The project team will be receiving input from parents, educators and the general public through regional forums, study ses- sions and other methods to determine the best ways to meet the educational needs of young children. The basic aim of the province -wide project is to examine the quality of pro - grains and services for four -to -eight year olds, with the intention of plann- ing improvements where requi Mala objectives include the need to clarify, for all concerned, the purposes and benefits of early primary education - Here & There In Pickering f by Diane Matheson HISTORY IN ACTION History comes alive next weekend at the Pickering Museum Village in Greenwood, when the annual History In Action isheld.
