Can I catch poison ivy from another person' B.G. A. It is the oil from the poison ivy plant which causes a per- son to develop the red, itchy blisters. By washing the slain several times with soap and water the oil can be removed. The only way you can get poison ivy from another person is if the plant's oil is still on the person's skin. If the oil is gone, you will not contract the irritation if you touch the blisters. Q. What country was the first to give women voting rights' W.N. A. New Zealand was the first. The year was 1893. Q. What's the difference between small craft warnings and gale warnings' What are their signals^. J.P. A. Small craft and gale warnings are two of four storm war- nings posted for boaters. When winds are expected to reach 33 knots 138 miles per our 1 or when weather conditions are determined t be dangerous to small crafts, small craft war- nings are posted. Gale warning mean winds of 34 to 47 knots (39 to 54 m.p.h.) are expected. More severe winds are in- dicated by whole gale warnings 1 48 to 63 knots, or 55 to 73 m.p.h. i and hurricane warnings 164 knots or 74 m.p.h. or more. l During the daylight hours the signals consist of one or two red triangular pennants, or red square flags with black centers. A single pennant indicates small craft warnings. Two pennants, one above th other, mean gale warnings. For the more severe storms. the red flags with black centers are used. One flag is posted for whole gale warnings, two are posted for hurricane warnings. Since flags are not visible in the dark• horizontally arrang- ed red and white lights are used to signal storm warnings at night. A red light on top and a white light on the bottom means small craft warnings. The reverse signals gale war- nings. Two red lights alert those on the water to a whole gale warning. Three lights -- red, white, and red - are posted for hurricane warnings. .................................. .........

Well education has returned from its lengthy holiday and the pros and cons of our educational system will come under scrutiny once again. Education in Ontario is fouled up very nicely now that the Catholic funding for grades 11 and 12 is under way. It is too bad because this only adds to the problems of the educa- tional system which is eating up tax dollars and doesn't seem to be improving or meeting the challenges of 1996. We believe that the time is ripe to get the system back to a few more basics. Despite computers the ability to write, spell and express oneself is still the important factor in a person's life. It not only counts in the business world but it is highly critical in the personal world as well. In the publishing business we get many of the graduates from journalism schools applying for a job and most have a problem or two because of the school system. First of all most can't spell or write satisfactorily. And the worst part is that there are too many graduates competing for the smallest number of jobs. Let's improve our English language training - and please eliminate half of the journalism schools! The Hon. George Hees Dear Sir: Recently a columnist for a leading daily newspaper rated the Mulroney cabinet. The Hon- George Hees. Minister of Veterans Affairs, received a "C". Later, the columnist (I thought begrudgingly) gave Mr. Hees an "A". after com- plaints. mostly from veterans. Given the record of some of his colleagues. even an "A" would hardly do justice. Com- panisons are odious. but so long as they are being made. we should perhaps put George Hees's evaluation in historical perspective. The writer has had a clime association with every. Veterans Affairs Minister going back to that redoubtable champion of the veteran, the Hon. Ian MacKenzie of Van- couver (1944-45). They represent a formidable group: Hugues Lapointe: Milton Gregg, VC: Gordon Churchill: Roger TeWet. Arthur Icing: Jean -Endes Dube: Allan MacKinnon and Bennett Campbell. George Hees is at the top of the list. Hopefully, Mr. Hees's rating is not made solely on the basis that he has not had to spend much time defending the record of his Department at Question Period. It should be recalled that he inherited a mess: witness the fact that, at the time of his appointment. the Pension Commission was the subject of an ongoing Committee of Enquiry under Justice Rene Marin. Also. what other cabinet minister had been give the challenge of presiding over a department whose staff was demoralized and decimated by a politically -motivated move of its headquarters to that delightful. quaint but almost inaccessible and insular piece of territory known as Prince Edward Island' It is significant, as well, that George Hees has an often vocal "contstituertcy" of veterans. ready, willing and able to get the public's eye if there is the slightest hint of injustice: and Lest We Forget George Hees had to do it all, despite the fact that he had been out of cabinet many years, and :c well past the age when most Canadians are content to retire from any challenge at all. It seems possible to suggest that Ian MacKenzie, that irascible old Tory -baiter from the West Coast w•ho was Minister of the Department for Veterans Affairs since the scrapping of the old Department of Soldier Civil Re - Establishment in the '20s, would agree that George Hees deserves the title as "the best" except maybe for the Honourable Ian himself. Sincerely, H. Clifford Chadderton, OC, CAE Chief Executive Officer of The War Amputations of Canada and Chairman, National Council of Veteran Associations in Canada Canadianism Is The Best Ism For Canadians!

Should Board Of Control Be Abolished? by Gay Abbate A majority of Scar- borough aldermen think board of control should be abolished. But Controller Joyce Trimmer says the aldermen are simply jealous of the power and position of the four con- trollers. A survey of 13 of the 14 aldermen shows that nine of the aldermen support abolishing the board, three are in favour of its reten- tion and one is undecided. One alderman could not be reached for comment. The aldermen are joined in their desire to abolish the board by Controller Frank Faubert who calls the board structure "a government anachronism." The aldermen have a number of gripes about the board. They say it is weak and fails to provide direc- tion and leadership, that its members interfere in ward business and that it does not address problems and issues. Says veteran Alderman Shirley Eidt: "The board does not look deep enough into issues so we have to do it for them at council." Perhaps the most serious indictment against the con- trollers is that it has allow- ed staff to exercise too much power. Because of the lack of board leadership senior staff has had to step in and now they run the show says Alderman John Mackie. There is more talk about ........... Bob's Notes Le Cirque Du Soleil Is Coming Acclaimed "Canada's newest national treasure" and "a festival of delights", Le Cirque du Soleil is returning to Maple Leaf Quay at Harbaafront, Sept. 13 - 21 for their se- cond Toronto appearance.

Marty of the young per- formers, who range in age from 10 to 30, are graduates of the Montreal-based National Cirrus School. Le Cirque. in the tgradition of European circuses, is a one -ring circus with its own striped Big Top and features no animal acts to distract the focus away from the performers.

Bethune Memorials Twinned Canada and China have decided to formally twin memorials to Canadian Dr. Norman Bethune, J.C.Christakos, Director General, Environment Canada.Parks has announced. Recent discussions with Chinese authorities have reached the stage where the deci- sion can now be made public. A celebration took place on Aug.30, the occasion of the 10th. anniversary of the opening of Bethune Memorial House in Gravenhurst, Ontario. His Excellency, Ambassador Yu Zhan of the People's Republic- of China along with Consul General Xia Zhonigeheng from Toronto and their colleagues attended a ceremony and reception.

Bob's Notes Employment Situation In Canada More than three years into the current recovery, the unemployment rate is still higher than it was before the last recession says the National Bank of Canada. Over the last five years, the number of jobs created has been well below the number of new arrivals on the labour market. As these new arrivals are mostly young people. unemployment among this group has prompted considerable public con- cern. And from 1991 to 1983, their situation has deteriorated markedly, since young people are the first hit in a reces- sion. The latest issue of the National Bank of Canada's Economic Review gamines employment trends during the last five years. according to sex and age group.

Diefenbaker.

Receiving such a letter can make one's day, especially when it was addressed to the Lung Association in praise of their stop smoking program, "CountDown". For Nancy McLeod of the Lung Association, this typifies the overwhelming response the association has received from grateful ex-smokers. The last "CountDown" campaign was so successful that the Lung Association has a waiting list for the program, a first in the association's history.

Registration Day Scarborough Recreation and Parks Department in conjunction with the Stephen Leacock Senior Citizens' Committee is holding Registration Day on Tues.

But Staff SuperUXeFK=% Mike Collis, who heads policing in Scarborough. said that the location of the station has nothing to do with the quality of policing. "Policing is the police of- ficer and the police car, not the station,' he said. All cars are dispatched from the downtown Toronto police headquarters where the emergency 911 em is located. Opponents of the amalgamation scheme did not show up at last week's council meeting to voice their concerns. Support for the move was not unanimous. Controller Frank Faubert said he was still not sure that amalgamation was the best way to go. Alderman John Mackie said he could not support it because the move would not improve response time in his ward for non -life- threatening situations which is now at 30 minutes. Both Mackie and Alder- man Edith Montgomery slammed the police depart- ment for failing to consider the option of adding a fourth station in the north- east instead of closing one down. According to the police department, it would be too costly in both dollars and manpower to add a new station in the northeast. The new 42 division will take in everything north of Highway 401 and everything east of Markham Rd. The eastern boundary of 41 division will be extended from Mc- Cowan Rd. to Markham Rd.

And so we said goodbye once more to the Butlers who have kept us going during the holiday season. We ap- preciated very much the time and energy given on our behalf and now John and Marj are once more retired. We wish then well in the next couple of months in their home in Prince Ed- ward County and then to winter in Florida. Next week we will welcome our new minister, Rev. Bruce Sanguine. We look forward to a busy year getting to know him better and working towards building a bigger congrega- tion. You are invited to join us on Sunday mornings at 11 a.m. All other phases of the church's work will also get under way. The children are reminded that Sunday School commences next week and the nursery will be available for those under three years of age. In this regard we could use more help as teachers and nursery school atten- dants, so if you have any free time please let us know - the regular staff would appreciate having someone to call on in case of illness or Just to have a day off. The United Church Women will meet on Tues- day the 9th. at 8 pm. in the manse and the craft group will meet on the same date at 9:30 a.m. You are invited to join both. The choir will also com- mence rehearsing on Sun- day the 14th. at 10 a.m. preceding morning wor- ship. . Next Sunday morning a pot luck luncheon will follow service as we use this opportunity for all to become better acquainted with Bruce Sanguine. Theatre Plus Opens With Best Play Yet Theatre Plus presents its fourth play of the 1966 season, ..Talley and Son (A Tale Told)", the third play in award-winning playwright Lanford Wilson's trilogy chronicl- ing the eVWts of the Talley family. It was a huge success when it opened last fall at the Circle Repertory Theatre in New York and was acclaimed by leading New York drama critic Clive Barnes as "Wilson's best play yet. Talley and Son has its Canadian premiere open- ing Aug. 2B and runs to Sept. 20 in the Jane Mallet Theatre at the St. Lawrence Centre for the Arts. Volunteer For Literacy Program Volunteer tutors are needed to work on a one-to- one basis with adults teaching them basic reading, writing and spell- ing skills.

The troubled (of Rome) long for two things only: bread and circuses." It was on Apr. 8th, 1986 that Employment and Im- migration Minister Flora MacDonald helped launch in Montreal the 1986 tour of the Cirque du Soleil by an- noune ft that the federal government would allot government funding in the amount of $4995,409 under the Job Development Pro- gram of the Canadian Jobs Strategy and create 52 jobs - By now, or views of government meddling (sorry, but we can't think of another word) in the fields of arts, crafts and entertainment are well (known. Equally well (mown, however, a our Jove of circuses. So, with mixed emotion slow us to recommend to you the Cirque due Soleil which will be appearing at Harbourfront's Maple Leaf Quay from Sept. 12th to the 29th. The yellow and blue tent is 40 metres in diameter and seats 1500 with ac- cessibility to people in wheelchairs. It is heated and has a private restaurant trailer that can serve 195 meals a day. True circus buffs won't care about that. What real- ly concerns then is the quality of the attractions. Have no fear friends. The Cirque du Soleil is, we are toil, a world class circus with acts that will stir the heart and accelerate the heartbeat. It's too easy to say mere- ly that she will experience all of the circus acts that thrilled us in childhood on display so we will not so say. We will say that if our advance information is as accurate as we believe it to be, then the glow of one's memories will be exceeded only by the pleasure of the performances and the per- formers. Among them, and there are so many to mention, are Chocolat and Naomie Gelinas. The former is a clown whom we believe has modelled himself after the Chocolat of the To lolse- Lautree posters of the fm de siecle entertainer. The latter is the grand- daughter of Gratien Gelinas, TiCoq. We believe we need say no more. ON RECORD Okay, so you missed UB40 at The Kingswood. Why not try their latest album Rat in The Kitchen ( Virgin) . We did and found it quite enjoyable if a tad wearing. UB40 is a British reg- gae ! pop band that seems to covered the secret of com- bining the esoteric rhythms of reggae with soft Rock. Is it good? Of course, it's not for us to say. Is it en- joyable? We think so just so long as one doesn't get too touch of it all at once. We found the album star- ting to bare us about mid- way through the second side but in the main, it's may, bouncy and just great for an outdoor patio party after the third Pbmter's Punch. Good for dancing and good for listening and, we daresay, better than hav- ing to trek up to Wo deriand to hear. ON THE ICE If you missed UB40 you probably also missed last January's sold out perfor- mances of Ice Dancers ex- traordiinaim. TorvW and Dean Well, if you did, here's you chance finally to see them. Tavill and Dean will be appearing on Fri. Sept. 12th at Maple Leaf Garders. Act quickly and you might still be able to obtain tickets. If you should be unhicky, you might con- sider a drive to Hamilton to see them on the following Sunday at the Capps Col- iseum. ON THE RAILS Murray McLauchlan will be in concert tomorrow, Friday and Saturday at the Horseshoe Tavern with something titled A Night Along The Bails. We don't know- what it means either but if it's Murray McLauchlan, that's gad enough for us. IN THE CLUBS Given the still shaky employment scene, Adven- tureville, one of T.O.'s newest Rock groups is well named. It plays at its house spot at 167 Church St. just below Shute'. Traditional Toron- toniarhs will remember it as the old Labor Temple. Labour and adventure... get it? Faget it. The spot, or the second floor of it anyway, is now called the Continental Rain and we were there the other evening to catch what we believe was the premiere performance of the group AdventurevWe. What can we tell you? Our disinterest, even uninterest in Rock is well known and we probably shouldn't comment on a new(?) group trying to make its way. Let us say only that we found it no less palatable than scores of others seen and heard by us in our now second decade of reviewing. Paul Eagon Pogue sings lead male vocals rather like a cheerfully con- stipated Willie Nelson and his wife, the doe eyed Deb- bie Denomy matches him mincing around the stage. She mioght be a good meand lean lead guitar mean atar and "Wild Mary" Hanson on keyboard makes one almost forget the frenetic excess of John McEwen on drums. Musical Director David Ramsden is probably good but why must he essay looking like a young Dom Deluise auditioning for a Feenamint commercial? For us, the most exciting members of the ensemble were the backup singers Maggie Moore and Katharine Louise Duffy. To be honest, we couldn't real- ly bear then but we didn't really care. They are each splendidly juricesque and fined with the fire that hap- py music should have. They gotta lotta pepper and their shakos are just sen- sational. ON VIDEO Thee is going to be a private taping session at The Terrace this Sunday at noon. There are a few spots still left for any who might like to be a part of a videotaping session. We can warrant nothing but if you think you'd like to attend, you might get lucky by calls Van Steenwyck and Associates at 3638741. HIGH Cs Just a brief reminder that the Canadian Opera Company opens its '96,'97 season on Sept. 17th at The O'Keefe with Boris Godunor featuring Welsh bass Gwynne Howell in the title role. We'll be reviewing it but, for heaven's sake, don't wait for that! Get your tickets and get then now before it's too late. IN PRINT Glynnis Walker is a local writer to wbom we raise our pen and tap our word processor in salute. We do so not because she is a good craftsman (Shoed we have written craftpeson? Can't risk offending the Scar- borough Board of Educa- tion after all.) but because we are envious of her abili- ty to take a subject that could be dealt with in a short magazine article and expand it into a short book. A few years ago she did so with Second Wife, Se- cond Best? that dealt with the pros and cons of second marriages. Now she has written Solomon's Children ( Doubleday) "exploding the myths of divorce" in which she examines the ef- fect of divorce on the children of the two, three or four people involved. We will not gainsay the book but feel constrained to repeat that its chief points could have been made in a maximum 1000 words. A 200 page book isn't necessary, particularly one filled with quotations from people who have answered Miss Walker's earlier ques- A Taste Of Honey Taste the sweetest harvest in nature - fresh hooey straight from the tionnaires. Perhaps she might con- sider following another Toronto writer into the field of novels. Joy Fielding's latest is titled The Deep End and is rather good ... if you haven't read Miss Fielding's earlier boots. Nothing succeeds like success and if Miss Fielding's fans want the same thing all the time, then who is to blame her for giving it to them? As a reviewer, though, we fid it difficult resisting the temp- tation to skim her works. And, we must confess to a jealousy of her ability to fill a book largely iwth dialogue. It's an easy tednzique but good writers eschew it in deference to the skill of story telling and the development of motions. Miss Fielding's books might well be panted by the Harlequin computer for all the humanistic insights they afford. Who knows? Perhaps they are.

Nutrition And Cancer Prevention � (Prepared by public health nutritionists in Metropolitan Toronto and the Regions of York and Peel) . Diet and cancer preven- tion is in the news. Newspapers. magazines, radio and television are full of stories about the "anti- cancer" diet. Some well respected agencies, including the Canadian Cancer Society, have issued dietary guidelines aimed at reduc- ing the risk of getting cer- tain forms of cancer. Details of the guidelines may vary from agency to agency but the basic message is much the same. What Evidence Exists Although many of the ;statements about diet and cancer prevention sound conclusive, it is important for you to realize that the connection between these two is not clearly establish- ed. The prvention of cancer is an active area of research where the interest is high, the conclusions vary and controversy rages. Epidemiologists estimate that up to 35% of cancer cases are diet - related. But exactly what this means in terms of diet patterns or food com- ponents is far from clear. We meed more studies before we can confidently say that eating certain foods will reduce or in- crease one's chances of developing some forms of cancer. The guidelines discussed below are based on the research to date; as more information becomes available they will likely change and reflect the newer knowledge.

Don't despair. Cancer prevention aside, the guidelines make good nutritional sense. In fact, these dietary guidelines are neither new nor revolu- tionary. They are almost exactly the same as the -Nutrition Recommenda- tions for Canadians. It's the same advice !nutritionists have been giv- ing for years. Time will tell if the guidelines will help prevent cancer; in the meantime, enjoy all of the health benefits that a nutri- tionally sound diet brings. Here are the key dietary factors: Trim the Fat Canadians, in general, eat too much fat - a factor associated with overweight, heart disease and now, cancer of the breast, bowel, rectum and prostate. This advice is good any way you look at it. Get :More Fibre Fibre has many benefits. It keeps one regular, is in- volved in the control of blood cholesterol, blood sugar and may even help those wanting to lose weight. From a cancer perspective, it may help to prevent cancers of the bowel and recturn. Eat More Fruits and Vegetables Nothing new in this. Fruits and vegetables offer a wide variety of vitamins and minerals as well as fibre, and have always been one of the cor- nerstones of good nutrition. Vegetables from the cruciferous or cabbage family and fruits and vegetables rich in vitamins A and C are often mention- ed. Since vitamin sup- plements aren't recom- mended as a source of these nutrients and until more is known about the exact role of these foods, cover all the basses by eating a wide variety of fruits and vegetables. Centre( 1 our Weight Who could argue with this'. You'll look better and improve your health by reducing your risk of developing heart disease, diabetes. gastrointestinal problems and possibly, cancer of the breast and lining of the uterus. Easy On The Alcobeh Drinking too much can have devastating effects on your health in more ways than one. Alcohol increases the risk of getting cancers of the mouth, larynx, esophagus and upper respiratory tract; the risk becomes even greater if you also smoke. Easy On Smoked, Nitrite - Cured and Salt -Cured Foods Don't get overly concern- ed about these foods. For most Canadians, these foods are not a large part of their diets. As discussed below, certain processing techniques used in Canada make these foods safer than you might think. Of course, certain cultural groups who con- tinue to eat traditionally prepared foods may be at a greater risk. If this is the case, dietary changes would be sensible. Smoked Foods Wood smoke does contain cancer-causing chemicals which adhere to a food's surface. But be aware that a lot of the "smoked" meat in the grocery store isn't smoked at all; it is flavoured with liquid smoke, a product that does not contain the cancer - causing chemicals of real smoke. Nevertheless, if you eat a lot of the "real" smoked foods, either meat or fish, you might want to make changes. But don't worry that an occasional smoked meat sandwich is going to give you stomach cancer. Barbecuing is another story. It is not the actual coals that are the problem. The cancer-causing chemicals originate from the smoke that results when the fat drippings burn. Short of giving up barbecuing, there is no simple solution. Lessen this problem by using the leanest meats possible and preventing the fat from dripping on the coals; some people have successfully used a foil plate to catch the fat dripp- ings. But also realize that other cooking methods us- ing high temperatures, such as broiling and frying, may also cause similar problems. As always, moderation is suggested. Nitrite -Cured Meats Hot dog weiners, ham, luncheon meats - there is too much attention paid to these nitrite -cured meats. It is true that nitrates and nitrites can react in the body to form nitrosamines. which are the actual cancer causing agents. But you shouldn't single out nitrite -cured meats as the culprit. In fact these foods con- tribute a very small pro- portion of the total nitrite that you get in a day. You get far more nitrate and nitrite from air pollution, cigarette smoke. drinking water and fruits and vegetables. Fortunately, the nitrate that comes in fruits and vegetables is counteracted by naturally occuring vitamin C which prevents nitrites from reacting to form nitrosamines. But by the same token, most nitrite - cured meats are also safe. Most brands contain vitamin C in the form of sodium ascorbate and sodium erythrobate. If anything, you should be more concerned about the fat and sodium content of these foods, not the small amount of nitrite they con- tain. Salt -Cured Foods There is evidence that cultures that base their diets on salt -cured foods (meat, fish, pickled vegetables) have a greater risk of stomach cancer. But, since neither this type of diet nor stomach cancer are common in Canada,I this shouldn't be a big worry to most Canadians. Should you opt to reduce salt intake because of high blood pressure, these foods should be avoided on a regular basis. A Note About Food Ad- ditives Despite the common belief that cancers are caused by food additives, these substances with the exception of nitrite are not on the hit list of cancer causing agents.

Nutrition And Cancer Prevention � (Prepared by public health nutritionists in Metropolitan Toronto and the Regions of York and Peel) . Diet and cancer preven- tion is in the news. Newspapers. magazines, radio and television are full of stories about the "anti- cancer" diet. Some well respected agencies, including the Canadian Cancer Society, have issued dietary guidelines aimed at reduc- ing the risk of getting cer- tain forms of cancer. Details of the guidelines may vary from agency to agency but the basic message is much the same. What Evidence Exists Although many of the ;statements about diet and cancer prevention sound conclusive, it is important for you to realize that the connection between these two is not clearly establish- ed. The prvention of cancer is an active area of research where the interest is high, the conclusions vary and controversy rages. Epidemiologists estimate that up to 35% of cancer cases are diet - related. But exactly what this means in terms of diet patterns or food com- ponents is far from clear. We meed more studies before we can confidently say that eating certain foods will reduce or in- crease one's chances of developing some forms of cancer. The guidelines discussed below are based on the research to date; as more information becomes available they will likely change and reflect the newer knowledge.

It is the belief of Lavinia Lyne, the founder and the staff of Are Ark School Studios that "every in- dividual by nature is a creator, to fashion beauty, to originate new values." Courses are limited in size so that each child can be given individual atten- tion, develop at his or her own rate and according to his or her own abilities. An interest in art is the only prerequisite for courses at Arc Ark School Studios. Beginners and ex- perienced students are welcome.

Milli:br d Tr9nlsp�tftlMn _ >flld �OIIIe11Y11jCitj011t MPP Scarborough East The summer holidays are over for many families, and with that comes the return to school for many young girls and boys. While safe driving must always be kept in mind, extra caution is required as children daily make their way to school. Some recent statistics give us peruse for thought. I have recently released the "Ontario Road Safety Annual Report", a yearly summary of accident characteristics. To those who have endured the tragic death or injury of a fami- ly's loved one, these numbers are much more than "characteristics„ or "statistics": they are permanent scars on a family. Together, we have a collective responsibility to enslave that our highways and roads become safe for drivers, passengers and pedestrians alike. For children, our vigilance must be even greater. Several publications of the Ministry of Transportation and Communications help to im- prove safety for everyone. While there are, fortunately, fewer and fewer accidents hurting children near school braes, one preventable acci- dent is too much. Among a number of informative pam- phlets is "The School Bra Stopping Law." The pamphlet, together with a poster, outlines the obligation of drivers sharing the road with a school bus. I eoaunend it to teachers, pupils and drivers. I will give details for obtaining these materials at the end of this message. Mother factor contributing to death and injuries on the road is the continued neglect of some drivers to properly use seat belts. The evidence cannot be disputed: almost 96% of drivers and pasters using seatbelts suffered minimal or no injury when involved in an accident. The figures for drivers and passengers not wearing belts are not nearly as encouraging. More dramatically, the chances of a person being killed while not wearing a seatbelt are more than 20 times greater than for persons properly using seatbelts. While adults ignoring the seatbelt laws are unwise and in breach of the law, adults allowing children to ride unrestrained are committing an act of pure negligence. Too often, we see children riding without seatbelts. Wase yet are those parents who allow children to stand in the front seat. This act of kindness can kill. A child standing inside a car becomes a deadly missile when involved in an accident. Simple physics dictates that even a small child would ac- c5derate toward the windrhwMat an alarming speed - there would be no -time to prevent the ine"table tragedy. The law obliges adults to ensure that children are safely buckled in. Again, informative pamphlets are available from the Ministry, of Transportation and Commuriicabons.

History indicates that Timucuan Indians were settled on this spot some 100 centuries ago and fierce battles raged here from the late 1700's to 1842. Today it is a very nice spot both for adults and children. WILDLIFE PUTS ON SHOW Imagine how nice it would be to take a voyage on a beautiful clear river and have a llama wade out to your boat to say hello. Then, as you glide down this beautiful pristine waterway, a family of col- orful wood ducks swims nonchalantly by a Soo -pound alligator, lying partially submerged like some small submarine. Further on, a herd of giraffes stares at your boat as they munch on the tender leaves of an oak tree. And, on the opposite side of the river, three sleek zebras tear around in the jungle like race cars bent on winning some private race.

At Florida's Silver Spr- ings people can get close to nature as they glide down the Fort King Waterway past peacocks, sable antelope, sarus cranes, maribou, South American guanacos and other lovely wild creatures. Native animals, living seasonal patterns they have followed for cen- turies, move among the more exotic species along the river banks. Deer, rac- coons, squirrels, snakes, alligators, hundreds of birds - all play their part in this engrossing ecosystem. Jungle Cruise launches leave daily at regular inter- vals from the Ft.

The Billy Bowlegs Cafe and dining area, gift shop and other. guest accom- modations are located on this island. All attraction areas at Florida's Silver Springs are included in the park's one admission price. Be sure to ride the Glass Bot- tom Boats and visit the The Invasion Of Sicily Brings Back Canadians In the heart of Sicily the Town of Agira is perched on one of many small but steep mountains. The streets of the town are sloped, winding and nar- row. It's not a tourist town although the people are friendly. it's just that Sici- ly does not appear much in the glossy brochures distributed by travel agen- cies. The people of Agira do have visitors though. and quite a few of them are Canadian. That's because of what caps the neighbor- ing mountain: The only Se- cond World War cemetery that is exclusively Cana- dian. Four hundred and ninety Canadians are buried there. The Italian Campaign has never received the kind of attention many Cana- dian veterans felt it deserv- ed. They belonged to the Calgary Regiment, the Royal Regiment of Cana- dian Artillery. the Princess Louise Fusiliers, the Loyal Edmonton, the Perth Regiment, the Seaforth Highlanders. Lord Strathcona's Horse, the Carleton and fork Regi- ment, the 48th Highlanders, the Three Rivers Regiment, and a great many others which made up the 1st Canadian Infantry Division and the 1st Canadian Army Tank Brigade. There were also, the British Columbia Dragoons, the Irish Regi- ment of Canada, the On- tario Regiment, the 4th Princess Louise Dragoon Guards, the Royal Cana- dian Dragoons, 8th Princess Louise's (New Brunswich) Hussars. the Westminster Regiment (Motor), Cape Breton Highlanders, Le Corps de G,&We royal candien, the West Nova Scotia Regi- ment, le Royal 22 Regi- ment, the Lanark and Ren- frew Scottish, the Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry, the Saskatoon Light Infantry (M.G.), the Lorne Scots, the Governor General's Horse Guard, the Royal Canadian Ordinance Corps, the Royal Canadian Regiment, the Royal Cana- dian Corps of Signals, the Elgin Regiment. Even that list is not ex- haustive. Over 93 -thousand Canadians served in the Italian Campaign. Just after dawn on July lo, 1943. the Canadians went ashore near Pachino, close to the southern tip of Sicily. They formed the left flank of the five British lan- dings that spread over 60 kilometres of shoreline. Three more beachheads were established by the Seventh U.S. Army over another 60 kilometres of the Sicilian coast. In the Pachino beach area, resistance was light but it became heavier in- land with German troops fighting tough delaying ac- tions from the towering villages and hill positions. One by one the hilltop villages were taken by the Canadians. Grammichele, Piazza Armenia, Valguarnera, Leonforte, Assoro and then, an July 28th, Agira. The Allies conquered Sicily in 38 days. 562 Cana- dians had been killed. 664 wounded and 84 were taken prisoner. The next step was across the Strait of Messina and on up the length of the Italian pennin- sula. The assault across the Strait began on Sept. 3, 1943. The Italian govern- ment had surrendered earlier but the Germans had seized control and had established a strong line of defence across the narrow, mountainous central part of Italy. The two forces met on Oct. 1 at Matta, then the Canadians went on to take Campobasso two weeks later. The Germans prepared to make a new stand from the Tyrrhenian coast south of Cassino, on the Naples -Rome highway, to Ortona on the Adriatic shore. High above the Italian ci- ty of Cassino, there is a huge abbey. Today the tour buses wind their way up to it, back and forth up the tortuous switchbacks cut into the face of the rugged. craggy mountain. Seen from below, it is a beautiful sight. One of the best vantage points is the Cassino War Cemetery. Among the 4,200 headstones in that cemetery are 855 on which are carved the names of Canadian soldiers. The Cassino Memorial is there too. It lists the names of more than 4,000 men who died during the battles in Sicily and Italy and have no Deer Park and Antique Car Collection - all gr at enter- tainers at Florida's Silver Springs.

The Allied armies, in 1944. would not have notic- ed the beauty of the abbey above them. It was a mighty bastion blocking the Liri Valley to Rome which the Germans were determined to hold. With permission of the Vatican. the Monte Cassino Abbey was bombed by the Allied air forces while Allied soldiers fought up the treacherous slopes. It was Polish troops who finally took the battered monastery on May 18, 1944, at great cost. At the top now. close to the abbey, there is a Polish War cemetery. When seen from the high abbey windows, the headstones form the shape of a huge Cross. Across Italy, on the Adriatic coast, Canadian troops had taken the town of Ortona after several days of vicious street fighting. At Christmas, 1943, Canadian soldiers were working in shifts, some holding their posi- tions and advancing them as they could, others several hundred yards back being served Christmas dinner. Then, back to the fighting. They used a technique in Ortona they called "mouse -holing". The idea was to capture a building, then blow a hole in the common wall bet- ween the basement of the captured building and the basement of the next, clear out the enemy from the bot- tom to the top floor, then This advertising space costs $11 per week blow a hole through the common wall into the top floor of the next building and clear the enemy from the top floor to the base- ment. The "mouse holing" went on building by building, block by block in ferocious fighting. often hand-to-hand. A subsidiary attack was launched by the Allies to the northwest of Ortona and the Germans, in danger of being cut off. withdrew from the town. It officially fell on December 28. The tall had been high. The Moro River Canadian War Cemetery, five kilometres south of Orton is the final resting place of 1,315 Canadians. The fighting was far from over. Many factories producing vital supplies for the German war machine were located in the north of Italy and the Germans were determined to pre- vent a breakthrough into the Po Valley and the Great Lombardy Plain. For that reason, the Gothic Line was establish- ed: a formidable series of machine-gun posts, anti- tank guns, mortar and assault gun positions, tank turrets set in concrete, mines, wire obstacles and anti-tank ditches. :Near the end of August, 1944, the entire Canadian Corps began its attack on the Gothic Line with the ob- jective of capturing Rimini. Three weeks of heavy fighting followed across six rivers and some of the most rugged terrain the country has to offer. but on Sept. 21. the Allies entered a deserted Rimini. Over the next month. the Canadians battled their way another 10 kilometres to the north. The Italian Campaign continued into the spring of 1945 but when the final victory came, most Canadian troops were no krnger in Italy. They had been re-uruted with the First Canadian Ar- my joining the drive into Holland and Germany to see the war in Europe to its conclusion. Many of their fellow Canadians. though. did re- main in Italy, and are there still. In the 17 Com- monwealth War Cemeteries in Italy, and in some unknown graves in that country, are buried more than 5.900 Canadians. For them and for the veterans of the Italy cam- paign, July 10. 1943 was like D -Day 11 months early. Hawaiian Dancing The combination of graceful movements and expression make Hawaiian dancing the most pleasing and entertaining of all dances.

Ontario Tender Fruits will be available in good supply with excellent quality and coloured fruit expected. No sigmfiicant price twcrease is imnci- pared for any of Onsane's Tender Fnuus. A normal size crop fa bumper crop was anticipated prior to the storm) of Ontario peaches, pears and pitons will be barvested on schedule. - Ontario's famoas freestone peaches arc availabie now until oaib-September. The 'freaumc'varieties (i.e. Red - haven and Loring) are the preaer- vexi dream ... the soft juicy flesh separates easily from the pit, making then ideal for home can- rung an- r Ing and freezing ... and of course eating fresh! Notrities ... Ontario peaches not only look good ... smell good and taste good... they're good for you too! A median peach (approxi- mately 3 oz) contains 38 calories and is an excellent source of Vitamin A. Steriag ... Store ripe fruit in the refrigerator uncovered, to main- tain quality and freshness. Onta- rio peaches are picked at the firm - ripe stage when they have achieved A golden underglow. It's this co- lour, rather than the red blush that assures they will develop to full fla- vour and tenderness even if they are firm when purchased. To ac- celerate this process, place the peaches in a brown paper bag for one or two days. Firm pears can also be ripened in the same way. Freezing ... If you have a freezer it's so easy to put peaches and plums away and enjoy the full fla- vour of summer in pies ... crisps... cobblers all winter long ... or use them to make lam or conserves when the weather is cooler. flap peaches in boiling water for 30 seconds, then in cold. Skin, pit and slice. For each quart or titre of fruit, dissolve 1/4 teaspoon of ascorbic acid in 1/4 cup cold water, sprinkle over fruit and mix gently. Add 2/3 cup granulated sugar per quart or litre, mix gently and pack in freezer containers or heavy duty freezer bags (press out air from bags). Leave 1/2 inch headspace — seal, label and freeze. Use the same measure of sugar to fruit for plums but omit ascorbic acid. Plums do not need to be peeled —simply pitted and quartered. If you plan to use the fruit for jam - making be sure to include the exact amount of fruit and sugar on the label. Then deduct that amount of sugar from your recipe.

These records are ac- cessible to police officers and representatives of insurance companies. They have traditionally been used by the in- surance companies to assist them in determining the risk factor when considering a new client. Because MTC's records only indicate driving infractions and demerit points insurance companies have had to rely on each other to provide any information regarding in- surance claims paid on behalf of the client. The problem with this system is the time involved in making an inquiry or in responding to an inquiry received. As a result some companies and agencies elect not to contact previous in- surers while others elect not to respond to inquiries they receive. It becomes more difficult for an insurance company to assess the risk factor of a prospective client without receiv- ing information from both MTC and previous insurers. But the guesswork, and legwork, involved in these assessments will sown end with the implementation of a pooling of claims records by insurance companies in the province. This central data base will assist insuranceparries to identify high-risk drivers as it is not uncommon for these drivers to switch carriers without giving accurate informa- tion on previous accidents and claims. Without the bandit of the full information from new clients, insurance com- panies extend the same rates to them as those extended to good drivers. Ultimately, the costs incurred as a result of the high-risk driver will be bonne by all, unless they have been correctly assessed at the onset. Statistics have proven that drivers with multiple infrac- tions are more likely to have an accident thm those with a sound driving reecoi . It is only just, therefore, that the careful driver pay less for insurance coverage than a high- risk driver. The Comprehensive Loss Underwriting Exchange (CLUE). the service to provide insurers with up-to-date driver information, has by now, probably commenced open attest. Carwid Data Services, another firm which will offer the information service, has signed up a reported 30% of On- tario's Insurance Companies. These two arms will undoubtedly cut dawn an the amount of time and effort rt required to thoroughly research the driv- ing record of new applicants. They will also remove a great deal of the guesswork for insures. The combined efforts and riles out the Ministry of Transportation and Communicatioxs and those of the two insurance information firms should result in fairer and more equitable premiums for all drivers in Ontario - with a distinct financial benefit going to safe drivers. you slice them.
