When was the fust Christmas card made? S.H. A. While the answer has been subject to dispute, many believe the fust Christmas card was printed in 1843. Englishman Henry Cole conceived the idea. He had a fellow Englishman, artist John Calcott Horsley, create the design which consisted of three scenes. The main scene was centered an a 5.1; 8-x3-1;4- piece of stiff cardboard. It pictured seven adults and four children seated around or near a dinner table. While the adults were raising their wine glasses as if toasting the addressee of the card, the children were sampling plum pudding. On each side of the main scene was a smaller scene which portrayed the Christmas spirit of charity. In the scene to the left the poor were receiving food: in the scene to the right, they were receiving warm clothing. Beneath the main scene was the familiar greeting, "A merry Christmas and a happy New Year to you". The artist created a dotted line on the top of the card for the ad- dressee's name. On the bottom was a second dotted line in- tended for the sender to sign his � her name. The card was lithographed and hand colored. While there is no record of the number printed, about 1,000 cards were sold for one shilling each. Q. What are voles' P.H. A. This mouse -like animal is a member of the rodent fami- ly. Its body measures about five inches long. the sparsely haired and ringed tail ranges from very short to the length of the vole's body. Tiny ears barely porotrude above the hair on its broad head. The vole has a stub nose and small eyes. Most have gray fur. Numerous species of the rodent exist on the earth. Every three or four years their population increases dramatically only to fall back to its normal population shortly thereafter. This space could be i yours for just $13.00 per week 284-1171 Wed. Nov. 26, 1986 Serious School Problems The Durham Board of Education is one of only a few public school boards in Ontario to be faced with such serials accommoda- tion problems. Over 987 the Durham needs to purchase over $6 million in sites. In this capital fast, the board is requesting $89 million over five years from the Ministry of Education in the elernen- tary panel alone. Included in this figure is funding for 16 new elementary schools. There are 256 portables in use at Durham Board schools at this time, which represent the equivalent of 22 twelve classroom schools. The board is pur- chasing portables at the rate of about 50 per year. In some situations, no more room exists on the school �i to for the addition of more portables. On sites where -:x to twelve portables are I,.%e, serious strain is be - placed on school ..,:lities such as , hroom ares, general poi �libraries an If it is to alleviate its serious accommodation crisis, the Durham Board of Education desperately needs help from the Ministry of Education. The Chairman met with the Munster of Education ear- ly in 1906 to make him aware of the problems, and ministry officials will again visit Durham on Nov. 4 to meet with staff and tour the problem areas. Members of the Legislative Assembly throughout Ontario have been advised by letter of Durham's accommodation crisis, and testees will be meeting with the four local members to bring them up to date on the current situa- tion. A.L.S.B.O. and other boards facing similar ac- commodation problems have prepared a position paper which has been presented to nneanbens of the opposition and plain are underway for a presen- tation to the government.

Durham Board Of Education Highlights Jack Hatchioson Homoured Jack Hutchinson, Head of Science at Anderson CVI, was on hand to receive congratulations from the board on his re- cent honour from the Na- tional Association of Biology Teachers as Outstanding Biology Teacher for Canada. Jack's many years of dedication to teaching Science and his tremen- dous rapport with students was praised by Ruth Lafarga, and it was noted that he had received a stan- ding ovation from those in attendance at last week's commencement ceremonies at Anderson CVI. Priority List Approved The priority list for the upgrading of general pur- pose rooms was approved as follows: 1) Greenbank PS; 2) Sir John A. Mac- donald PS; 3) Dr. Robert Thornton PS; 4) Waverly PS and 5) Queen Elizabeth PS. It was noted that the list is subject to future w hen '�, •` ic�son's � I PRI%rl]G A%D Board's Capital Forecast The Capital Expenditure Forecast for 1987-1992 was approved by trustees and will be submitted to the Ministry of Education. Pro- posed projects for 1907 ( funding in 1968 ) , in order of priority, include new elementary schools for Port Perry, Westney Heights North, Ajax, Maple Ridge, Pickering and Kendalwood, Whitby. A five -classroom addition to Gandatsetiagon PS in Pickering and a four - classroom relocatable library and general pur- pose room upgrading addi- tion for Palmerston PS in Whitby have also been re- quested, as well as sixteen other building upgrading projects throughout the Region. The board will adopt the procedure of naming an ar- chitect and authorizing staff to proceed with the design for the proposed elementary schools for Maple Ridge and Ken- dalwood, also the addition for Gandatsetiagon PS and the Kedron PS general pur- pose room. This process will allow for earlier tendering if the projects are approved by the Ministry. Board Supports Bil- ingualism The board members moved to support in prin- cipal offrcial bilingualism for the Province of Ontario and believes the Province should adhere to sections 1620 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and F reedomhs, which outline the equality of status and equal rights and privileges as to the use of Canada's two official languages. Not- withstanding the intent of the board's motion, the Provincial Government must develop a long-range plan with respect to finan- cial costs and implementa- tion procedures. Industry Education Coun- cil to be Established The Program and Cur- riculum Committee's pro- posal to establish a Durham Region Industry Education Council was ap- proved and the board's share of the cost, $5,000 per year for a two year period, will be included in the 1987 and 1988 Budgets. Main s '; purpose of the council will be to strengthen the ex- isting ties with the business community and develop new, effective links and programs for the better- ment of school curriculum. The Ministry of Education has provided an incentive fund to assist school boards in initiating community oriented programs and they will contribute $15,000 per year for the two year period. Should the Durham Roman Catholic Separate School Board decide to par- ticipate in the program as well, their share of the cost would reduce the Ministry's contribution. Jk - Ps'>�DL7PlalTllal! R.

The provincial government and especially Municipal Af- fairs Minister Bernard Grandmaitre seems to be in a mood to make the election of a future Metro chairman a vote of all of the people of Metro in the next election. Don't do it, please! Presently the Metro chairman is voted into office by the duly elected representatives from all sections of Metro Toronto. It costs the taxpayers very little, but a Metro wide election of a chairman will cost a lot of money and for a can- didate it would mean about $250,000 in campaign costs, which means a political party would have to be involved. Do taxpayers of Metro want local politics to drop into the quagmire of party politics? Party politics tends to make an individual representative conform to what the majority of the party wants to do and therefore tends to eliminate the representation of our duly elected person. We don't elect by popular vote our prime minister federally or premier in provincial politics, so why do it for the Metro chairman? The Metro chairman may not be accountable to the voters directly• but he is accountable to the members of Metro council, whose members are accountable to the elec- torate. So let's not worry this idea into more expensive government. Government in our country is already too ex- pensive. We suggest that those readers who agree with our views send a letter or call your local council member and get your opinion into action now before it is too late. Tough Luck by Bob w atom We have tried to attend the Liberal convention in Ottawa this week but apparently there is no room for us weekly newspaper publishers - the big time is there in force to record the demise or adulation of John Turner. This newspaper's publisher has been to almost every con- vention of the Liberals and Conservatives for many years. but the Liberals seemed to have given up communicating with this newspaper and so we are expected to get our news from the pages of .. The Toronto Star? Heavens! So we are sharing this information with our readers. who are Liberal supporters. that it is their party which is holding us up from reporting direct and m our own words from your party convention. If You're Going To Drink Please Don't Drive For Roads Not Transit Dear Sir: The Nov. 5 article "Subways Better" is a lot of hogwash. The TTC makes the point of lanes required on ex- pressways. The traffic lanes required per the article as be- ing 28, should be amended to only three in each direction. No more lanes than that are necessary or required. 1. If you ride transit, you're stuck to the tracks. 2. Since when do the subways always operate on schedule? More often that not there's a breakdown, or an ill passenger. How many times have I heard the statement on the TTC's Mickey Mouse public address speakers the words "There has been a delay. Service can be expected to resume shortly". I've stood on their subway platforms on many occasions when that "resume shortly.. has been more than 15 minutes. 3. Ask the poor transit user what he thinks of the TTC this winter when he or she waits up to 15 minutes or more for a street car while standing half frozen. You get free "Pushing and Shoving". That makes it more interesting. 4. Comparison for comparison, our cars will get us there quicker with less fuss, shoving and inconvenience. 5. Why should we take transit when the car will reach the destination we want, without delays, transfer points, etc. 6. Remember, if we take your so called "Better Way". we're stuck to the tracks. Environunent issues - Ask people wtiose homes are near public transit what they think of your "transit environment" when their homes shake with the continual rumble of every train or street car. Leave transit for someone with lots of time to spare. Signed An Occasional Rider.

Travel Broadens The Mind It's said that travels broadens the mind. It seems that our jobs are sending us out on that mind -broadening road more frequently these days. According to Statistics Canada, Canadians took 14.6 million trips of at least one night from January to March 1986, a rise of 21 percent over the figure for the same period in 1984. The increase in business trips during that time accounts for most of this growth: travel on business for one night or more increased by 77 percent over the level for the corresponding period in 1984. Bob's Notes '� ............................ .. ............... New Trucking Reform Legislation Ontario Minister of Transportation and Communictions Ed Fulton has introduced legislation to reform trucking regulations in the province. "This legislation will be of benefit to the entire industry, providing for increased com- petition, more responsive and flexible trucking services and competitive transportation costs," Fulton said. "We anticipate especially good results in Northern On- tario," he continmued, "where competition is less, costs are higher and service options fewer. All applicants, or their employees, will have to hold a ministry -issued "Certificate of Competency," attesting to their ability to operate trucks safely and within the law. Fishermen & Cottagers Fishermen, cottagers and other users of the fisheries resources in the MNR's Algonquin Region have an oppor- tunity to meet Ministry of Natural Resources fisheries staff from its Algonquin Park, Bracebridge, Bancroft, Minden and Parry Sound offices and discuss proposed Fisheries Management Plans for that area of the Province in a public meeting at 5 p.m. on Dec. 9, in the Superior Room of the Macdonald Block at the corner of Bay and Wellesley St. Toronto. Snow Vehicle Accidents Up About 70 percent of all drivers involved in fatal motorized snow vehicle accidents last year were impaired, Ontario's Minister of Transportation and Communications Ed Fulton has announced. "Of the 17 fatalities, 12 of the snow vehicle drivers were described as "ability impaired" or "had been drinking" Fulton said. "The statistics prove that, whether it be an automobile or a snowmobile, driving while im- paired kills," Fulton added. ' The time has cane for all of us to take the potential for casualty much more seriously." No Fault Insurance Not The Answer Says CIAA Do your insurance premiums contmue to rise because you have to pick up the tab for the bad risk? Frustrating? You bet it is! You are a hard working, responsible in- dividual or corporate citizen, but must continue to pick up the other guy's tab as well as your own. You may have heard about no-fault auto insurance as a suggested solution to Ontario's price and availability in- surance woes. The Canadian Independent Adjusters' Association I CIAA ► strongly believes no-fault insurance is not the answer. The CIAA has an objective viewpoint because it is a national organization of licensed indepen- dent adjusters who deal directly with both the insurance in- dustry and the public. The CIA believes that with no-fault you will bear even more of the burden because you would have to carry the responsible party as well - everyone will get a piece of the action regardless of fault. How do you feel about the un- paired or careless driver receiving the same compensation as the innocent victim? Ontario's citizens have always prid- ed themselves on the belief of individual responsibility and that its citizem should be held accountable for their actions. The CIAA certainly believes in this principle and is of the opinion that no-fault insurance will only increase the cost we must pick up for the "other guy". There is evidence that no-fault not only involves higher premiums. but will provide lower benefits to accident vic- tims. In the United States some states such as Penn- sylvania and Nevada, which implemented no-fault have found it extremely unsuccessful and are returning to a tort or fault system. Throwing Out The Baby With The Bath Water? The CIAA believes that for personal injury compensation the present system works and that any massive restructur- ing to accommodate no-fault is akin to throwing out the baby with the bath water. There are already provisions in the automobile insurance policy which pay for loss of wages to all accident victims but what is needed is to bring these benefits more in line with today's costs. Certainly adjustments should be made to the present system which would continue to provide fair compensation to the innocent victim. However, just because we read about million dollar awards does not mean the tort system is leading us to a dizzy spiral of uncontrollable costs. Many of these large awards include "artificial" increases of con- siderable size to make up for money lost to income tax. The CIAA proposes revisions which would reduce the need for inflating awards to account for income tax losses. Restric- ting interest charges on settlements is another area where adjustments could be made. The point is there is no availability problem associated with automobile personal injury compensation and the present system works. The present system places responsibility on the wrong doer and protects individual rights to compensation. The CIAA believes these concepts must be maintained if society is to have the best interests of its citizens at heart. Carrier Routes Open!

Whether you work in an office, a mine, a factory, or a shop, you could be exposed to hazardous biological or chemical agents without ever knowing it. On November 6, a new regulation was made by the Ontario Government which will come into effect December 6,1986. This new regulation provides greater protection to everyone in the workplace in two different ways. First, it sets out specific legal limits on exposures to more than 600 different toxic agents. And second, it requires exposures to toxic agents in the workplace to be reduced by engineering controls, such as improved ventilation, rather than by the use of respirators. if you'd like a listing of the agents and information about the exposure limits placed on them, visit the Ontario Ministry of Labour Office nearest you.

Lieder enies fahrenden Gesellen is a fine vocal exercise beautifully sung by baritone Gary Relyea but has little else, if anything, to redeem it. The ballet was created for Rudolf Nureyev and Paulo Bor- tduzzi and is a pas de deux that, according to our program notes, respa>ds more to the despairing mood of the heder rather than to the actual text. One can well believe it! At the performance we attended the two roles were danced by Ray- mand Smith and Tomas Sdhramek. They both danced well in a work that by the choreographer's admis- sion can be interpreted many ways.

It's not for us to say if there is value in the work: we understand it is a frequent gala piece in Europe. Certainly, the audience was appreciative but we suspect it was in relief after the ridiculous Concerto. It is an intricate worst and Messrs Smith and Schramek per- formed in superb synchronization. Emotionally, they were weak but, to be fair, the intricacies of the steps mitigate against anything other than concentration on those same intricacies. The work was warmly applaud- ed but the applause was for the dancers not the dance.

Etudes was worth the entire evening and we feel sorry for those who left after the opening Concerto even though we can understand why" Giselle was first presented in 1641 and still enchants audiences. Productions of it are legion but we believe - and we know we risk ac- cusations of provincialism - that the National Ballet's is among the finest. ( Just in passing, we declare without reservation that the revis- ed orchestration of the Adolphe Adam score by George Crum is the very finest we have heard.) Kim Lrghtheart was Gnelle at the performance we attended and we mast repeat our proprietorial pleasure over her emergence into a fine actress, so fine indeed that her thespian skills are now the equal of her terpsichorian. If there is any justice at all she should be a principal within the next season or SO. Gregory Osborne was Albrecht in a princely portrayal that was new to us. Of course, he was pro- perly regal but more than that, he was properly young. This was most evident in the scene where he is ex- posed before the court and the villagers for his well intended duplicity. The expression of his face would do credit to a young Laughton. And, of course his dancing ..

Youll automatically receive an advance payment of $300 per child if you meet the following conditions: • Your net family income in 1985 was $15,000 or less, •tiou have a dependent child or children who will be under 18 years of age on December 31, 1986, •tiou received a child tax credit this year for that child or those children. Why is the government doing this? The advance payment, apart of the child tax credit, is designed to assist over 750,000 love -income families with children. Among other things, it will reduce the pressure on these families to discount their child tax credit cheque. What about the rest of my credit? To receive the rest of your 1986 child tax credit simply fill out the child tax credit form on your 1986 income tax return. The maximum credit per child is $454.00, up from $384.00 in 1985. And if I don't qualify for the advance payment? If you received Family Allowance for a child or children this year, you may still be eligible for a maximum or partial credit. To find out, simply fill out the Child Tax Credit form on your 1986 income tax return. For more information See the insert in vour November Family Allowance cheque or contact your nearest district taxation office.

Exhibits At The Libraries _oft and Papier Mache Sculpture A showing of wall hang- ings and self-supporting sculptures by Susan Wood, a graduate of the Ontario College of Art, can be seen from Dec. 5 to Jan. 17, 1967 at Bendale Branch Library, 1515 Danforth Rd. Ms. Wood, who was originally trained in graphic design, has redirected her artistic talents to create her unique sculptures using soft fibre materials and papier mache. Her creation have been displayed at the O'keefe Centre, the Toronto Domi- nion Centre and the St. Lawrence Hall among others. Paper Cup Sculpture Mike Stone, a Scar- borough artist, has an unusual flair for creating colourful figurines using an unusual material - paper cups. Mr. Stone has always been interested in arts and crafts and began his ar- tistic career in watercolour painting. For the past ten years Mr. Stone has been explor- ing the unique world of paper cup sculpture with delightful results.

The most common accessory is glass doors, which are available in a variety of sizes and styles and are usually attractively designed. Glass doors are standard on many prefabricated fireplaces. You can restrict the amount of heat lost up the chimney by closing these doors when using the fire- place. However, this practice may result in honer flue gases and a hot- ter chimney, which could cause a flue fire. It is a good idea to shut these doors when the fire is dying down or when the fireplace is not in use. Heat loss through the chimney can also be reduced by providing the fireplace with additional com- bustion air. One way is through fresh -air intake ducts, which bring outside air to the front of the fire- place. The ducts should be con- structed of noncombustible ma- terial and be designed to prevent spark entry. They should also be equipped with a tight -fitting damper that can be closed when the fireplace is not in use. Although glass doors are de- signed to resist breakage from tem- perature extremes or the impact of shifting or falling logs, accidents have been reported. To avoid acci- dents purchase good -quality doors. build fires carefully and use a cor- rectly sized grate to keep logs in place. Another popular fireplace ac- cessory is the tube grate. Heat from the fire is drawn into this series of curved, hollow steel tubes and then channeled into the room. The true impact of this device on fireplace efficiency is debatable. Fireplace inserts are wood - burning space heaters that tit into and effectively seal the fireplace opening. Correctly installed, these inserts can greatly improve the effi- ciency of the fireplace. But there are risks involved. Inserts block much of the ex- cess air that typically flows through the fireplace's chimney.

Take note of what areas in your house used are insulated, what kind of insulation is installed and to what depth. If the insula- tion work was done by a contractor most of this in- formation should be writ- ten down, either in the con- tract or in the contractor's records. Failing this, you'll have to do some scouting to get the facts. You should ensure that all insulation is in good shape (not wet or com- pacted) and that an effec- tive air -vapour barrier is in place. You should also determine if your insula- tion is up to current stan- dards.

Remember that there is a diminishing return for each additional unit of thermal resistance added, so it makes sense to concentrate initial efforts where little insulation ex- ists. Also, insulation works best if the arra is airtight; caulk, weatherstrip and add an air -vapour barrier before installing insulation. Ilse heating system Now turn your attention to the heating system. Is the system in good shape?

In any case, have the heating system serviced annually to ensure that it runs as safely and ef- ficiently as possible. Basic do-it-yourself maintenance will also con- tribute to the efficiency of the heating system. For ex- ample, keep the system clean. For electric baseboard systems, this means removing the front plate and carefully vacuuming the heating fins.

A quick check can reveal small problems, before they become large problems. A blocked chimney or faulty furnace can cause serious health problems and even death by allowing carbon monoxide gas to spill into your home. Also, if there isn't sufficient household air for proper furnace combustion, exhaust gases may be prevented from rising up the chimney, and leak back into your home. This can occur when the fireplace, kitchen fan or other air exhausting appliances are operated in a home. / If you're a homeowner, it's your responsi- bility to see that your furnace is properly maintained. A safe furnace makes your •s home a healthier place to be. L For more information, contact your natural gas, oil, or propane supplier. Or, �y! phone a registered heating contractor near you.

Also, close off any unused rooms and reduce the temperature to about 10°C by closing registers or turning off unitary beaters. Finally, sealing the heating system's ductwork with tape will help more of the heated air reach its destinatiion. Where the ductwork passes through cool or unheated areas, it should be insulated with an appropriate insulating material.

On Buying Firewood Stocking the woodpile in Preparation for the cold winter months has become a regular part of life for many Canadian families. For some. this is a do-it- yourself job. However. most Cana. dians are not fortunate enough to own or have access to a woodkx. and the demand for dealer -supplied firewood is growing. Firewood dealers regularly advertise in local newspapers and on community billboards. You aught want to ask a wood -burning friend or neighbour to recommend a supplier from past experience. Early spring is the off-season for dealers, which is one good ma- son you should buy your firewood then. But there is a more important one. Wood cut in the winter and sold in the spring has had time to dry and season properly. Seasoned firewood bums nae efficiently. giving more heat to the house per cord of wood while lessening the potential for dangerous creosote buildup in the chimney. More than half the moisture in freshly cu wood will evaporate over the sum- mer if the wood is split and stored under cover. i PARTY TIME: Parties are all around us it seems.

Residents of Metro Toronto can process claims up to $3,000 through the Small Claims Court system while everyone else in Ontario is limited to claims of only $1000. Our P.C. Justice critic, among others, including myself, brought this matter to the Attorney General's attention some time ago and it is apparent the government has no in- tention of acting to address the issue. "This is hardly in keeping with his promises to ensure equal access to the justice system for all citizens," says critic Terry O'Connor. "Such blatant discrimination must stop now." The Courts of Justice Act provides for increases in the monetary jurisdiction of Small Claims Court by way of regulation. Amendment to the legislation is not required. But Small Claims Courts are not O'Connors only concern. In May, O'Connor introduced a Paralegal Agents Bill, which if passed. would regulate paralegals in the province - a growing profession that needs supervision. The Bill would place paralegals. people who act as an agent in provincial offences court, Small Claims Court, a landlord and tenant matter or a Coroner's inquest, under the jurisdiction of the Law Society of Upper Canada. O'Connor sent a letter to all Ontario Bar Associations which outlines the Bill and shows the need for regulation. But the Bill has already received widespread support. Even the NDP and the Independent Paralegal Guild of On- tario recognize it would protect the public from swindling consultants. Bill 42, Mr. O'Connor's Bill. now in second reading. woud establish educational standards and courses for paralegal agents. It would keep paralegal agents in check by pro- viding mandatory liability insurance coverage and disciplinary measures. "rhe government's failure to act in these two matters has allowed a few to blacken the reputation of paralegals who are honest, competent, and hard-working men and worsen," O'Connor says. Although the Attorney General has said he would in- troduce legislation to control paralegal action. be has yet to do so. O'Connor says the matter should be addressed im- Perhaps the Attorney General thinks ignoring the paralegal and Small Claims Court issues will make than go away. "It is time, on these issues, to put aside partisan dif- ferences, and work together to see that the necessary pro- tection is forthcoming," O'Connor said. "We have an obligation to the people of this province to enshrine their right to competent, affordable access to the justice system.
