What will be the last day of the 20th century? J.H. & R.S. A. The last day of the 20th century will be Dec. 31, 2000. The years one through 100 after the birth of Christ are called the first century. The second century is considered to be the years 101 through 200 and so on. Jan. 1, 2001 will be the first day of the 21st century. Q. Why do we say "it's raining cats and dogs*'? F.O. A. It is believed that this expression dates back to the so- called Dark Ages ( roughly the 5th through 10th centuries A.D. ). Belief in ghosts, goblins and witches was prevalent and even animals were thought to have magical powers. Sailors associated cats with storms because the witches who were believed to ride in storms often were pictured as black cats. The allusion to dogs is of !gorse origin. The Norse god Odin, the god of storms, was generally depicted surrounded by dogs. Dogs and wolves were symbols of the winds. So whenever someone comments on a severe storm by saying "it's raining cats and dogs", whether they know it or not, they are renaming the rain as cats and the accompany- ing winds or storm conditions as dogs. ..............................................................

Port Perry Elementary School Architect Michael Ogus was on hand to present sketch plans for the single Morey elementary school which is proposed for the fairgrounds site in Port Perry. After the plans were approved by the board, Chairman Ruth Lafarga in- formed trustees of the status of negotiations for purchase of the site. The Fair Board will meet May 14 to vote on the issue of breaking their lease with the Town of Port Perry, thus enabling the board to proceed with immediate purchase of the site and construction of the school. As the prepared sketch plans are for the fairgrounds site and as the Board has no other ap- propriate site available, the new school would not be ready to open for September 1987 if the Fair Board's decision is not in favour of making the pro- perty available for pur- chase. Appointments The following appoint- ments were announced by the board: R. (Bob) Kennington, VP at Frenchman's Bay PS to the position of Principal at R.A. Hutchison PS in Whit- by.

Epsom PS Families with students entering the school system within the original Epsom PS boundary area and who do not have siblings atten- ding existing schools will be advised that the children will attend Epsom PS. Board staff will make the necessary ar- rangements with the ex- isting bus routes. This deci- sion by the board is intend- ed to boost enrolment figures at Epsom PS which has been losing students in recent years to other area schools. Glenholme School to Re- main Open The motion recommend- ed by the Property and Transportation Committee to keep Glenholme School open was passed by trustees. In order to help make the situation more economically feasible, an attempt will be made to lease classroom space to other area organizations such as Durham House and Frontenac Youth Services. Two classrooms for in- struction of students re- maining at Glenholme will be retained by the Board. The chairman commend- ed staff and members of the Glenholme School Ac- commodation Committee Or their considerable in- vestment of time in review- ing the situation and arriv- ing at the decision that Gienholme School should remain open. In particular. Area Superintendent Bob Martin was praised for his ongoing dedication to meeting the needs of the trainable retarded. It was noted that Mr. Martin was honoured at the O.P.S.T.F.

Authority of the School Principal The board will advise ALSBO of its support of the Ontario School Trustees' Council resolution stating that the Ministry of Educa- tion be urged to initiate a process that would set tures, Henry St. to Victoria St. structure modifications, Harwood Ave. to Henry St. This contract consists of grading and structural work between Henry Street easterly to just beyond Brock St. to clear the pro- posed Whitby (Brock St.) station platform area. The GO Transit tracks will pass under Henry St. and also under the new Brock St. bridge recently con- structed under Contract GGE332. A new access roadway off Henry St. will be con- structed to serve both the OPP Whitbv detachment and the proposed Whitby station. Surplus excavated material will be used to rough grade the proposed Whitby station parking lot south of the CN tracks. Ex- isting structures con- structed under Contract GGE320, between Harwood Ave. and Henry St. will also be strengthened under this contract to accommodate the change in transporta- tion strategy from light rail to a conventional rail tran- sit system.

Opinion a page for expression for you and us Catholic Schools Funding Fallout The first of the effects of the Catholic Schools Funding is now being seen at local Metro school board as teachers are being laid off due to a drop off in students. Shop teachers are feeling the pressure more because the whole school system is trying to encourage more academic studies in the system and Catholic schools do not bother with vocational training. In our opinion, the cost of this dual school system will be judged intolerable in the future, but only after the public school system in many areas of Ontario has been destroyed. In Metro the school board each year gets less and less money from the provincial government but we don't hear strong objections from local school boards or the public. The Medical Plan In Ontario we have been en' one of the best medical enjoying plans in the world, far superior to the British system and certainly a way ahead of no plans as in the United States. But let's call a spade a spade - the current debate over "extra billing.. is not about doctors charging extra money but about the $57 million which the federal government is withholding from the Ontario government because there is extra billing allowed in this province. We feel that the Queen's Park boys should be groaning at Ottawa not our doctors. Generally speaking we believe we have a good system here in Ontario with incentive for the medical people to earn a good living for their skills and for patients with little money to enjoy good health care. Now we are going to endure a strike by doctors this week which, in our opinion, is unnecessary if the politicians believed in freedom to operate in our ( supposed) free enter- prise system. Why wouldn't the politicians hand the responn- sibihty over to the medical association which is a very strong orga.A .;ation armed with disciplinary powers. Let's make the doctors keep the doctors in line. In our view a doc- tor is supposed to give medical treatment whether a patient has money or not. If a doctor feels he or she needs more than the OHIP money for an operation. let the patient decide to pay the extra. Birt here is where the federal government is wrong - it should not be withholding funds for this so-called "extra billing' We hope that common sense comes to somebody at Ot- tawa or Queen's Park before some Ontario citizen suffers fmr . 'he battle line - Forget It! Prime Minister Brian Mulroney should have received the message from President Reagan and all those lovely American politicians that the US of A doesn't want Canada to be any closer - except to have us as their neighbour and bunting the most products and services from them of any other country in the world. What about it Brian - why not a ban an the importation of oranges from the US. That would upset growers in both California and Florida and should re- direct the political thinking of their reps. at Washington. Bob's Notes Whitefish In Lake Simcoe The construction of a fish rearing facility at White Lake near Perth has enabled the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources to step up its efforts to restore the once -plentiful whitefish populations in Lake Simcoe. "Our plan to build a fish rearing facility adjacent to Bake Simcoe has been delayed until a site with a suitable water supply can be found." Natural Resources Minister Vincent Kerrio said. "In the meantime, we have constucted an in- terim facility at the White Lake Fish Hatchery to ensure a continuing supply of whitefish stock for Lake Simcoe." Renew Science Education The Ontario Government will implement a $3 -million pro- gram to renew science education in elementary schools, Education Minister Sean Conway has announced. The program. which addresses the goals of excellence and relevance in education stated in last month's Speech from the Throne, enhances science education from kindergarten to Grade 6, particularly for female students. "One of the central messages in science education must be that science is a part of all our lives," Mr. Conway said. Science is not just for the scientist, the university -bound student or only for boys. Science is for everyone.

Teleglobe Canada mark- ed its most profitable year ever in 1985, according to its 36th annual report tabled in the House of Commons by the Hon. Sinclair Stevens, Minister for Regional Industrial Expan- sion and the minister responsible for Teleglobe Canada. The net inoorne represents an increase of 15.4 percent corn - pared to the equivalent period of 196.1. Net operating revenues in 19M increased by 10 percent to reach $240.5 million. in light of these results, the Board of Directors authorized payment to the Government of Canada of a $26.6 million remittance, which represents 50 percent of the corporation's net income, as well as a special payment of $53.4 million, thus bringing to $80 million the total remit- tance for the 1985 fiscal year. Beware Repair Rip -Offs CAA Toronto has warned motorists to beware of service station rip-offs if travelling this summer. The area of par- ticular concern is Interstate 75 in the southeast United States. "While we presently only have one documented case", Pat Curran, Director of Consumer and Public Information, "it was a typical case of bilking travellers through tire slashing, fraud and intimidaiton. In past years, we had heard of numerous cases of slashed fan belts and tires, oil squirted on fuel pumps and shock absorbers among some of the other methods employed in this type of racket." In order to protect yourself against service station rip- offs, CAA Toronto says that the first step is to have your car thoroughly checked over by your own mechanic before starting out on a trip. When you stop to purchase gas, get out of the car and watch the service man as he checks out anything around the car or under the hood. If you must leave the car, wait until all service has been performed, then move the car away from the pumps. If a service station attendant should suggest that there is something wrong with the car, you should always insist on verification before spending money on an unnecessary car repair. When buying a replacement part, insist that the defective part be kept for later checking. It is also helpful to pay by means of credit card. Should it later develop that you have been victimized, you have a good record of the dealings. One other type of fraudulent action by service stations, cautions CAA, involves credit card invoices. Motorists have found irregularities in their monthly accounting charges through altered invoices. When signing a bill, always com- pare the handwritten amount with the imprinted amount in the righthand corner. Fortunately for motorists, the majority of service sta- tions and garages are honest. However, it does pay to be aware of fraudulent practices and watchful when having your car serviced. ed by the effectiveness of Miss Carney's moral suasion.

More Illicit Drugs In 1985 ..The quantity and street value of illicit drugs seized by Canada Customs rose dramatically in 1985 over the previous year," says Bernard Valcourt. Parliamentary Secretary to National Revenue Minister Elmer MacKay, Mr. Valcourt told the House of Commons' Standing Com- mittee on Finance and Economics Affairs last night, that, "More than $244 million in illegal drugs were seized by Canada Customs during 1965." This is an increae of 142% over 1984.

The city's planning com- mittee last week over- whelmingly rejected an ap- plication to rezone a piece of industrial land on the east side of Silver Star Blvd. just west of Midland Ave. to permit a 450 seat Chinese theatre. Although the owner of the site is Styx Golf Clubs Ltd. the theatre could possibly be developed by the same people who tried unsuc- cessfully to build a Chinese theatre in the Chartwell Plaza extension on Brimley Rd. and Chartland Blvd. The application calls for Reject Buses Again For French Immersion Students by Gay Abbate Parents of children in Scarborough French Im- mersion program say last week's board of education refusal to provide busing will only make them lobby harder. Meet June 3 Over H. Creek Library by Gay Abbate A public meeting has been scheduled by the Scarborough Library Board to discuss %•here in the Highland Creek com- munity a library should be located. Date of the meeting is Tues. June 3 at 7:30 p.m. in the Meeting Hall of the Scarborough Civic Centre. Two areas of this com- munity are split over the location of the library. The Highland Creek branch is presently located on Old Kingston Rd. just east of Military '[Pail in the heart of the Highland Creek Village_ Reside:rts in this area want the library to remain in this older part of the community. But the library board, as well as the residents living near Ellesmere Ave. in the new subdivisions, want to re -locate the library to the corner of Morrish Rd. and Ellesmere Ave. The land is being offered for sale by the developer of a new plaza planned for this cor- ner. The library is not scheduled to be built for at least another year or two. Nora Ohanjanians, a spokesman for the Scar- borough French Immer- sion Parents' Association, said after the board meeting that the group would just have to work harder to try and persuade the board to change its mind. The group has been lobbying for four years for busing. Liberty Burns. another member of the group, told the board that it was en- dangering the lives of children in the program because the traffic situa- tion is very bad as a result of all the parents driving their children to school. She also told the board that by refusing to supply busing it was committing ..an injustice against the less advantaged people of Scarborough who cannot provide their awn transpor- tation and are therefore deprived of an equal educa- tional opportunity for their children." ..............................

While there were no residents nearby to object to the application at plann- ing committee, the theatre and restaurant were oppos- ed by the city's planning staff, who argued that the land's industrial zoning does not permit such uses. Local Alderman Doug Mahood, was the only member of committee to support the rezoning. He argued that the site is suitable because the theatre would not impact on nearby residential com- munities. "These people should be allowed to have their own theatre," he told committee. But approving the re- zoning would be opening up the doors to other developers who would also try to increase the value of their industrial land wwth a different zoning, said Alderman John Mackie. Alderman Marilyn Mushinski said the rezon- ing was an attempt to hide the Chinese theatre where it would be least seen.

R. Wright. If our memory serves cor- rectly we stated that this well written little murder story qualified as a. minor gem. One can imagine our pleasure then when we heard from Doubleday just recently that "The Suspect" has been award- ed the Edgar Award presented by the Mystery Writers of America. It won first prize in the top category of best novel. The paperback edition is now available from Seal Books. Someday The Rabbi Will Leave ( Fawcett I Crest ) is the latest in Harry Kemelman's series of mysteries featuring Rabbi David Small. It's entertain- ing enough but one has the feeling that after eight Rabbi Small books Mr. Kemelman's creative juices are drying up. A murder is committed in a small New England municipality and a young man charged with it. The case seems airtight against him until the rabbi has an insight. remarkably akin to a dens ex machine, that clears him and brings the true criminal to justice. Nothing the matter with the old DXM except that one has co ne to expect so much more of Mr. Kemelman. Be that as it might, the book is still well recom- mended if for no other reason than the irv*M it presents into the faith of Judaism and what it means to so many millions. AF'TeRGLOW : We are still in the afterglow of two recent events under the aegis of the National Ballet of Canada. The fust was the tribute to the late Erik Bruhn. How sad to write of him as "the late"! We will write nothing about the tribute - you will have read, heard and seen the media reports already. We will say only that we consider ourself privileged to have been invited to at- tend and it was an event we will not soon, if ever. forget. Nor will we ever forget Mr. Bruhn. Although we were often in his presence we met him only once. It was at The O'Keefe's 25th anniversary celebration and we were in- troduced to him by Greg Patterson, the Assistant Publicity Director of the company. We exchanged but a few words and yet they were enough to make one realize that here was a man to be reckoned with ( and to bell with dangling prepositions or whatever!) He is gone and yet he is with us still. Can or need more be said? The second event was the presentation of the Stut- tgart Ballet and its presen- tation of Cranko's The Taming of the Shrew dur- ing the company's Cana- dian debut. What can we say except, "come back soon!' . Afterglows are nice but life goes on and according- ly we pass along the good word of The National's choreographic workshop this Thursday, Friday and Saturday at the Tanen- baum Opera Centre. The works will, as always, represent a mixed bag of styles and inclinations. Some will be pretty far out, some will exercise the classical discipline, all will perhaps find their way into the repertoire of the com- pany. Admission prices are reasonable and . . it's a good chance to see the Tanenbaum Centre if you haven't already done so. Hi Joey? Remember when we used to help you with your Eng. Lit. at Humberside? On Sunday and also at the Tanenbaum Centre the company pays tribute to another gentleman of The National now lost to us; John Goss, former Associate Conductor of its orchestra. Space, our continuing enemy, prevents us listing all the attractions of the event but one must mention a pas de deux from La F-rlle Mal Gardee to be danced by Kim Lightheart and Jeremy Ransom, two young dancers in whom we hold an expressed pro- prietorial interest and whom we confidently predict will soon be among the world's leading duos. Ah youth . . and Erik Bruhn was so young. IN YOUR SF --%T: Label us unsophisticated if you will but we are still capable of being moved by a superb public relations act. Speedy Muffler, which has many shops in the arras served by this jour- nal which you all read. is celebrating its 30th an- niversary in Canada. In recognition of the fact and in gratitude for its cor- porate success Speedy is making a special offer to the motoring public. Everyone is aware of Speedy's "You're a Somebody" campaign but now it is launching the Lit- tle Somebody program. This is a program by means of which Speedy's outlets will loan car safety seats, to drivers who re- quest them, to be returned when the infant reaches nine kilograms (20 pounds). We think it a splendid idea and one worthy of community applause. Well done Speedy . . and just wait until we ask for one for our first grandchild. Continued �o From Page 4 WED.

This show was the ninth most popular show on or off Broadway and succeeded in the apparently impossi- ble attempt to interpret the childlike 'Peanut' characters in terms of adult actors playing the roles. The show does not have a plot or story line but using six of the characters gives us a series of vignettes bas- ed on the cartoon strip.

Electric lights and heat, for example, can make cottages much more comfortable. Unfortunately, electrici- ty in remote areas of cot- tage country is expensive - the cost for a connection to the hydro, grid can be as much as the cost of the cot- tage itself. Find out haw to beat the high cost of energy by par- ticipating in the Cottage Country Electric System Workshop on Sat. May 31, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., at the Korb ight Centre for Con- servation. The emphasis of this one - day workshop is on low- cost, do-it-yourself pro- jects. An investment of on- ly $1.500 will allow a typical cottager to meet all elec- trical needs with either a small windmill or a photovoltaic system. Photovoltaics is the generation of electricity with solar power. The workshop will discuss the capabilities of each system, sizing the system to the cottage. maintenance, equipment limitations and prices. Cost of the workshop, in- cluding lunch, is $20.

Sidewalks For Lawson Despite Objection by Gay Abbate Residents on the north side of Lawson Rd. west of Centennial Rd. are going to gel sidewalks though they petitioned against them. Those who want the sidewalks are residents liv- ing on Satchell Blvd. and Closson Blvd. both streets off Lawson Rd. These residents want them out of concern for the safety of their children.

West Hill, a member of the Scar- borough East Cadets, was awarded a Duke of Edin- burgh's Silver Award at a ceremony at Queen's Park on Apr. 26th.

The sidewalks are going in between the west stretch of Satchell Blvd. and Centennial Rd. The south side of Lawson Rd. already has sidewalks. A petition by Lawson Rd. residents says the sidewalks will disrupt land- scaping and create chaos. The 20 homeowners who signed the petition say the sidewalks on the south side are adequate to meet the community's needs. But residents who want the sidewalks say the lives of their children are at stake. The children presently have to cross Lawson to walk along the sidewalks on the south side in order to get to their .school. Ward Alderman John Mackie has opposed sidewalks on Lawson Rd. before but said he was forc- ed to support them this time because of the in- creasing heavy traffic on Lawson Rd. r - 1 This quick to knit hr., : urner is in one of Patons newest yarns, Cotton Club Tl. c .nstructions are easy to follow and require only four to f,, a balls of yarn for ladies' sizes small, medium and large.

Bill Watt's Worlds initially, policy of Apar- theid, we applaud the cur- rent Toronto Arts Against Apartheid Festival. You will have read much about it already. Let us mention, however, the pro- gram this Saturday at Massey Hall with Harry Belafonte and his special guest Liberty Silver. Mr. Belafonte is one of the world's finest enter- tainers . . when he remembers to entertain and not sound off about platters well beyond his ken. We well remember an evening with him at The O'Keefe some years ago when he deplored the absence of Blacks in the NHL and implied that there was a policy of discrimina- tion in the league. One can understand and sympathize with those who hold a deserved cause very dear but let's keep a proper perspective. Anyway, good luck if you wish tickets to tomorrow night's program.

REEL HEROES: Nice to report that three film-makers from York University have won first prize at the CBC Telefest '86 competition. York also had two second -place win- ners and two honourable mentions. The first place winner was something titled Teenage Things which gives us a beautiful segue into our next item. ON THE TUBE: For the last little while now we've been commen- ting on the excellence of the local television series The Kids of DeGrassi Street. We're pleased as can be to pass along the word that the producers are now film- ing a follow up series titled DeGrassi Junior High. It will begin in January and will be seen on CBC in Canada and PBS in the United States. Can't help wondering in print how many viewers in Brooklyn will think that DeGrassi Street refers to a well verdured thoroughfare. Think about it .. or, better still, say it aloud. IN THE CLUBS: Miss Peggy Lee con- tinues until the end of the week at the Imperial Room. Frankly, we don't think there's a "hoapinell" of securing tickets by the time you read this but we sincerely urge you to try. Miss Lee is a fine enter- tainer and well worth one's custom but there is another very real reason why you should try to see and hear her. She is not exactly in the best of health and it's just possible that one of these days she will tire of the very real grind of touring. Will it be this year or next? Who knows? We know only that one should take every opportunity to catch this consummate singer. Following Miss Lee at the Imperial Room will be Three Dog Night. Well, no one expects everything to be perfect in this world. T 1 Sports Report by Glenn Sutherland SCAR.

The two students arrived on Sept. 13 and returned to West Berlin, where they both live, on Dec. 9. Katrin loved the exchange, enjoyed Toronto immensely and made many new friends here. She found West Hill C.I. quite relaxed compared to the tense atmosphere in classrooms back home where students take ten subjects and classes last from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Everyone involved in the program agrees that the ex- change is very worthwhile and provides a super opportuni- ty for a student to live in a somewhat different society. However, the exchange isn't complete yet as Rachel and Sean left for West Germany on Apr. 7 and will return home July 7. SPRING SPECIALS ON ■ .

Report from Queen's Park By George Ashe, MPP Durham West XX INSURANCE REPORT - PUBLIC After nearly five months of investigation, the Ontario task force on insurance has made public its report. Key among the recommendations of the task force is a privately -run, no-fault insurance plan. The report proposes that a no-fault insurance scheme be available for everyone. Under this kind of system, people would lose the right to sue for personal injury from automobile accidents. Damages for pain and suffering could only be obtained by purchasing additional insurance coverage. While introducing no-fault insurance may check the con- tinued rise in insurance rates, the proposal does not do anything to bring costs down. In essence• the report asks people to give up their right to sue and to have personal damages individually assessed. The legal profession has great concern about this recommendation. Consumers are not getting any assurance that rates will level off, or decrease. There is no commitment to ensure that additional coverage will be affordable or sufficient. %%%ben the Slater task force was set up, the P.C. Party ex- pressed concern that there were only two representatives from the insurance industry on the commission and no representation from consumer groups or small business. The Slater report has some interesting points to make in its 100 recommendations and 520 pages, but at first glance it does not tackle the real challenge facing Ontario con- sumers. The report has little to say about the reinsurance market, which has helped jack up the rates in our province. Nothing is said about penalties for frivilous claims. In the meantime imsuaance rates continue to climb, forc- ing school boards to cut batt on activities, municipalities to restrict recreational programs, and hardship for the in- dividual consumer. Prompt action is needed to effectively solve our province's insurance crisis. The Slater report has some in- teresting ideas, but many glaring omissions. If you have a comment, an idea or concern about the in- surance crisis in Ontario, kindly pass it on to me in writing. I will in turn make sure our critic on Insurance matters, my colleague Bob Ruuncimsan, M.P.P. for I.e &. is apprised of your comments. Speaking r ` To You e, Scott Fennel M.P. Ontuio Riding On the "job., front, the following figures are very en- couraging: - 630,000 jobs have been created since September, 1984 - the unemployment rate has fallen from 11.7% in September, 1984, to 9.6% in April, 1986 — the lowest rate in four years - between March and April, 1966. 56,000 of the 57,000 Cana- dians who entered the workforce found employment - jobs are being created at a faster rate in Canada than in any other major OECD Nation. In the past year, jobs have been created twice as fast in Canada than in the U.S. - since September 1984, total unemployment has fallen by 226,000 - the unemployment rate has fallen and employment has risen in every province since September 1964 - 306,000 jobs have been created in Ontario since September, 1984 - youth employment has increased by 98,000 in the past 19 months - the youth unemployment rate is at its lowest level since December, 1981 - total youth unemployment has fallen by 98,000 since September, 1984 - 319,000 more women are working today than in September, 1984 - unemployment for women has fallen by 2 percentage points since September, 1984 - the number of unemployed women has fallen by 85,000 in the same time period. To repeat an often quoted phrase: JOBS, JOBS, JOBS. . Well, I am proud of these statistics. These figures speak louder than anything else I could possibly say to point out that the P.C. Government has definitely lived up to its elec- tion promise. Of course, I do not wish to minimize the role played by Canadian businesses, both large and small, in fact, I would like to congratulate them all. I think it is fair to say, however, that our innovative programs and our responsible attitude toward reducing the deficit, have definitely helped the business sector in their efforts to get the economy going again.
