If a sponge is an animal without a mouth, how can it eat? D. D. A. These interesting animals have developed a unique feeding system. Instead of a mouth and internal organs, the sponge has a series of pores, canals and chambers through which food and oxygen are carried. The pores lie on the surface of the sponge. From them run canals which empty into chambers. Inside the chambers are thin hairs (flagella) which move about, causing water to circulate through the canal system. Also in the chambers are cells which digest the food brought. to them. Leading from the chambers are more canals. They carry the water and wastes from the digestive chambers to a large opening in the sponge through which t unwanted r materials are expelled. The ocean waters carry small particles of food in t L service since n , la y feature good used clothing Ridges I.G.A. Plaza. ...................... . .... form of small animals and plants. The sponge's flagella cause the water with the nutrients to move into the pores, through the canals, tot chambers where the food is "eaten" and then through the exit canals to the ocean. Q. Who were the Hottentots? S. T. A. These were a cultural group of about eighteen tribes which lived in southern Africa. Calling themselves Khoikhoin ( meaning men of men) , they roamed the coun- tryside herding sheep and cattle. With their slanting eyes, tightly coiled hair, and yellowish brown skin, the Hottentots were easily distinguished from the other people oft area. Their language enhanced that distinction since it had a clicking sound. While about 50,000 Hottentots existed in the 1600's, their descendants intermarried with other African groups and Dutch people oft area. Not much remains of their culture or language. One Khoikhoi group, the Nama or Namaqua, still lives in Namibia. Their lifestyle, however, does not reflect that of their ancestors. 4t eCh tt'']]�� Zw Ire 'cson 6 PR1%11%, AND � o This Space Could Be Yours For Mayors Speak At Luncheon William McLean, Mayor of Ajax and John Anderson, Mayor of Pickering will be guest speakers at the Ajax - Pickering Board of Trade's luncheon meeting on Tues.

School Board Investigates Debenturing Options Realizing that the Durham Board of Educa- tion would face. in 1987, an increase in the elementary capital expenditure of 125% over 1906 figures, an Ad Hoc Committee was form- ed to discuss and advise the board on debenturing as a possible means of raising the local share of these re- quired funds. The committee consisted of board officials, trustees Cathy O'Flynn, Louise Farr and Gary Kitchen, and former board chair- man Stan Love], Milt Mowbray and Alex Williamson. The group met on three separate occasions to in- vestigate and review possi- ble solutions to the board's increased financial respon- sibilities in 1987 and the coming years. Rapid growth in Durham has necessitated the construc- tion of many new elemen- tary schools (four in 1987 alone) , as well as additions and renovations to existing structures and the pur- chase d portables to ac- commodate the intiux of students. The committee estimated that the total elementary capital expen- diture for 1987, less grants and transfers from reserves, would exceed the maximum allowed by the Events At The Library It's family film night at Rouge Hill Library every Tuesday until March 10.

For a number of reasons, including the fact that debenturing would commit ratepayers and future boards to a long-term (up to 15 years) high interest schedule of re -payments. the committee decided to reject the option. As an alternative, the board will be asked to con- sider controlled increases to the local levy over the five year period 1987-1991, as a more satisfactory method of meeting its in- creased financial obliga- tions. This solution would make effective use of the board's reserve account by allow- ing the board to borrow on a short-term basis to cover shortfalls in 1987 and 1989, at a more favourable in- terest rate than either debenturing or borrowing from the bank. As well as committing the board to a much shorter term of obligation, the plan for control' -ed increases to the local levy will save the board and ratepayers a substantial amount on in- terest charges. To the average taxpayer with a home assessed at a value of $5,000, it is estimated by the commit- teethat the increase to properly taxes in 1987 will be in the neighbourhood of $7.06, or less than a 1% in- crease on the education portion of property taxes for 1996. This amount will be in addition to any in- creases to the local levy deemed necessary by the Finance Committee in the setting oft board's 1987 budget - Members oft Ad Hoc Committee feel confident that they are protecting the interest of Durham ratepayers by recommen- ding this course of action. A more responsible method of meeting the board's financial obliga- tions, the controlled in- creases tot local levy will greatly assist the board with insuring 'quali- ty education today - for tomorrow', by providing additional critical space for its growing student population.

Jan. 21.19H7 Opinion a page for expression for you and us Here & There by Bob Watson Armed Forces We note that our Defence Minister Perrin Beatty says he would like to see Canadians taking an active part in their own defence, either by serving in the armed forces reserves or by strongly supporting government policy. It seems Beatty doesn't believe in conscription but deplores the lack of reservists. Well, Perrin, you may not like the idea of conscription, but military service for everyone for two years from 18 to 20, both males and females, would be invaluable to our country - and the human beings involved. From such two years of service could come many for the reserves after- wards. We believe that all of us should be ready for any emergency of the future, unlike what we were prior to World War I and II. Let's do it, Mr. Beatty'. Racist" A Sikh group has accused External Affairs Minister Joe Clark of harbouring a "prejudicial and racist attitude". Their beef is that he won't meet with them over human rights violations in India against Sikhs. Now come on. Joe. you are busy interfering in the internal affairs of South Africa, why can't we get involved in the internal affairs of India? Mr. Clark is racist because he favours the communist -led African National Congress over white Africannters in South Africa. However, we note that the minister is actually going to visit India and Bangledesh in the near future. He has never been to South Africa. Keep It Tight Controller Ken Morrish would be backed by most Scar- borougtl taxpayers when he says that the city can't afford to hire any new civil servants if property taxpayers are to be protected from large increases in taxes. But as Mr. Morrish points out. there are increases coming in the Metro tax and public school board tax rates this year. Maybe we should do like the Americans and allow no mlcteases in taxes except by a trate of the taxpayers. Against Amendment The Canadian Candotninium Institute t CCI). the na- tional. non-profit organization representing the Canadian condominium community, has officially opposed the recent amlendtnent to the Ontario Human Rights Code which pro- hibits rohibits adults -only condominiums. The Ontario government. in an amendment to the Human Rights Code has in effect, retroactively abolished adult - only Gond rr nlu ms. Although the intent of the legislation is directed at rental accommodation, its far-reaching scope has encompassed all condominiums in Ontario. CCI fears the legislation could affect condominiums all across Canada. Prior to the passage of the legislation, con- dominium corporations had provisions in their darters providing for and protecting their adultonly status. Alan Rosenberg. CCI past -president and chairman of the National Adult -Only Action Committee says, "The govern- ment has, in one fell swoop in the passage of this legislation retroactively eliminated condominium owners' rights to an adult -only lifestyle. Many owners made their decision to buy based on a chiki-free lifestyle for their later years, and have lost the right to live that way by virtue of the govern- ment changing the rules in the middle of the game." A large segment of the Canadian population is of adult status. Many of these people have chosen the condominium lifestyle. On behalf of the condominium community. CCI is adamant that the Legislation be amended to accommodate this large sector of the population. Continues Rosenberg. "On behalf of condorniniumn unit owners everywhere, we're prepared'to fight for a change in this legislation, to allow homeowners to live the Life of their choice. Clearly, this Legislation discriminates against the rights of every Cana- dian condominium owner."

The award was presented to pilots from Malton and North Bay who had 4.000 hours of flying time. The year 1986 has also been accident free. PICKED 11 S tl nelill"Will..

However, for thousands of Canadians suffering from asthma, this simple action most of us take for granted is often difficult and piam- ful. The word "asthma" describes a condition of breathing difficulty caused by obstruction of the bron- chioles, small passages which carry air from the windpipe into the lungs. Muscle spasms or swelling of the mucous membranes are only a few of the causes of this ohstructiion. Asthma can be triggered by a reaction to external ir- ritants such as pollen, chemicals, climatic co" - tions; or to something in- ternal such as a respiratory infection, allergy, or emotional car dition. It's possible to in- herit asthmatic tendencies, or to develop the condition at one point during your life even if you've never had it or never will again. Asthma is rarely fatal, but whether you have a mild, continuous form, or suffer sudden severe at- tacks, it's a distressing and frightening problem. Sometimes, it takes a lot of detective work, by both patient and physician, to figure out what triggers asthma attacks and when and how to prevent then. Sufferers should keep careful records of attacks, and of important details preceeding them, such as foods, locations, personal contacts and climatic car ditions. Asthmatics should make every effort to understand the causes of their attacks because they can vary greatly from person to per- son. Many excellent pro- ducts are available to con- trol symptoms and, in some cases, prevent at- tacks altogether. The treat- ment prescribed by your doctor should be carefully followed. If a prescription is involved, your phar- macist is ready to belp by discussing the medication and helping you to unders- tand the dosage and how it affects your system.

Around'a'ndAb'ou"'t your Dining & Entertainment Guide Bill ONSTAGE: The Toronto Fre Theatre's Current produc- tion is "The Grace of Traverse" by Timberlake Wertenbaker. No, we don' know or understand significance, if any, of name either. Since the play is still thing, allow tis to devote the introductory portion our review to its construc- tion. Any novice writer is 'taught - and natural writers know - that a nar- rative must be blocked out in advance. One doesn't start writing, without a plan, merely anticipating or hoping for the fruition of the seminal inspiration. One supposes that Ms Wertenbaker knows that but one is hard pressed to believe it after viewing this confusing work. It starts out as a more or less Faustian account of an intellectually frustrated gentlewoman's decent into the debauchery of mid - eighteenth century London in the pursuit of ex- periences outside that of her genteel and cir- cumscribed upbringing. It ends with the said gentlewoman, Mary Traverse, realizing that the world is i:deed a cesspool but that the hope of redemption will always be with to and that it will be secured through faith in the Primal virtues. The message is not new and one does not criticize Ms Wertenbaker for stating it again; one does, (however, suggest that her sophomoricmethod is sophomoric at best and soporific at worst. ( Yes, we saw a few heads nodding during the perfor- mance.) Her writing, not withstanding, a handful of more or less polished turns of phrase seems to lack the discipline o( the proper playwright and her message. however well in- tended, is lost in sighs of relief at the conclusion of the performance. more we say ore than on that it includes a recon- ciliatibetween father and syphilitic daughter, a flaxen haired infant grand- daughter laying flowers on the grave of a more or less Tolpuddle martyr and, Wa tit's Worlds would we lie?, a tailwagg- ly that who ever decreedg Free u dog. There was no the presence of the dog is in chorus swelling Rule Brit- sad need of refreshment on Tania nor the rich aroma of what makes for good Mom's apple pie but there theatre. t might just as well have One final comment. One the been. er And, oh what a waste! Ms Wertenbaker has a the most certain felicity with a turn of phrase and TFT has of assembled a splendid cast and production but nothing can change the fact that "The Grace of Mary Traverse" is nothing more than a well intended effort on the part of the playwright and might even ! be an affront to those who are not regular theatre patrons. After all. those who pay the price of the ticket are entitled to be entertained; not exposed to the tentative W ` "J•T gropings of a writer strug- gling through the mists of muddled mysticism. Enough! Let us be positive and dwell upon those things of value in the production. Kate Trotter in the title role overcomes the banalities of the playwright and makes one suspect there might even be some value in the dreadful ut- terances assigned to her. Fools' gold they might be but she makes them sound like the scatter of Sutter's gold on parchment. Still, even someone with the inherent grace of Miss Trotter cannot make a silk purse out of the saw's ear Play At West Wed. ,.Iae: 21, 190 TIIIIS} W4W POW POO11 Hill• Collegiate West Hill Collegiate is Peter Parnel on Thurs.

IN PRINT: We have long admired the attention of American publishers such as Double- day to the works of Cana- dian writers. Now Patricia Cairns, the manager of publicity and promotions for Random Hoose, sends along some exciting news. Random House of Canada, which includes Ballantine and Fawcett. announces the Spring launch of its Canadian Publishing Program and its first Canadian list of books and authors. We have seen the catalogues and will be com- menting and reviewing fur- ther at a later date. For now however, we wish to thank and congratulate Random House and to point out to Canadians that the late Gordon Sinclair was absolutely correct when he pointed out that the U.S. is the best friend Canada could possibly have. ROUND AND ABOUT: This Sunday at 3 p.m. Classical Cabaret presents soprano Tracy Dahl and baritone Peter Barytes in the George Ignatieff Theatre.

Driver job-trainkV 9 placement help is available Call Rodgers School at (416) 769- 3546. before that Miss Kitt will dance during this engage- ment. May we suggest that d the excitement of her dancing can still match the excitement of her singing. she might well be renamed Eartha Quake. After previews, Corpse opens tomorrow at Stage West and our review will follow. The Limelight Dinner Theatre is mounting a pro- duction of The Music Man which will star Brian McKay. It has been in the offing for several years now and. without taking anything away from Mr. McKay, we had rather hoped it would star Bill Walker who has played the role before. Well, that's show biz. BOOK REVIEW: The Kiss of Judas (Fawcett Crest) is a real crackerjack thriller. Writ- ten by R. A. Scotti it ad- dresses the subject of world terrorism and the way in which this well organized movement shrinks at nothing to ad- vance its cause. In this book one follows a plot to assassinate Pope Paul VI by Italian Com- munists. The Russian com- munists don't want the plot to succeed, neither do they wish to lose the support of the local movement. Right in the middle of it all is a stolid Rome policeman, who is forced politically into the position of chief of the anti- terriorist squad. He is a policeman of the old school, a plodder and tough when necessary. If the book has a flaw it is that one knows the plot will fail but surprisingly the fact doesn't detract unduly from the suspense. One also gains much in- sight into the ways of the Vatican. And, for those who have visited Rome, the descriptions of it by the author can almost make you believe you're there again. Good book.

Report from Queen's 'ark By George Ashe, MPP Durham West SOFTWOOD LUMBER ISSUE Claiming that he was working in cooperation with the rest of the nation, David Peterson is criticizing the Federal government's negotiated settlement of the softwood lumber dispute. "We've turned over to another sovereign state not only our resource and taxation policies, but our regional development and employment policies," he says. The Liberals say the settlement allows the U.S. to in- terfere in Canada's internal affairs and sets a "very dangerous" precedent for future meddling. But the Ontario government had the chance to defend On- tario's position in the matter and didn't take the opportuni- ty. The Liberals did not follow the precedent set by previous Ontario Progressive Conservative governments in 1983 and 1964 to send Ministers to Washington to personally lobby the Administration and Congress. Ontario was not represented in the hearings advertised in the U.S. Federal Registry following the temporary imposi- tion of a 15% tariff on Canadian softwood. Although the Liberals did participate in "information ses- sions" with representatives from the federal government, they did not speak out on behalf of the Ontario lurnber in- dustry until it was far too late. Most of Ontario's softwood lrnber industry is located in Northern Ontario. The industry employs 7.000 workers with more than 65% of production sold to the U.S. So far• more than 900 workers have lost their jobs as a result of this dispute. Premier Peterson and his Minister of Natural Resources didn't oppose the export tax on softwood lumber or act to protect Ontario's interests before. As a matter of fact they even supported the initial Canadian offer to impose a 10% export tax. They agreed to the principle of an export tax at that time. Why all the rhetoric now? Now they do not have the right to point fingers at Ottawa a the U.S. Personally, I would have preferred it Ottawa had fought it out. but at least with the export tax the money stays in Canada. If a tariff was confirmed the ftaancial benefits would accrue to the United States. What Happens When You Quit? Do you know what happens to your body when you slap snwkinz? I vou're like most you are well aware of the health risks of smoking but know little about the effects of quitting on your body and mind. When you anempt to quit. you may c%perie Lc change+ in your body and emotiorm Many of these chanters arc rotated to nicotine withdrawai and area physical response w the als- sence of nicotine. Acamling to the American Psychiatric A -r sociation, some of the more typical nicotine %ithdrawal ,ymptoms include: craving for N*Wacco. irritahility, anxiety. difficulty in concentrating, rcm- lessness. headache. drowsiness and patrointostinal distur- hances. If you have tried to stop smoking is the past, you know these symptoms are most intense during the first few days of quittu'ug, but that they often linger for weeks and even months The good news is that if you decide to quit, nicotine withdrawal symp- toms need not be overpower- ing and don't even have to appear. However, if you are a heavy smoker, they are more likely to appear and more likely to be troublesome. The smoker who prepares to deal with these withdrawal symptoms usually stands a better chance of quitting suc- cessfully. In other words, talk to your doctor if you've failed in the past or are a heavy smoker and think you need help. Or, call a local public health agency to find out if they offer smoking cessation programs. Hypnosis, acupunc- ture or group therapy can also give you support. BUTTING OUT — — WHY NOT? The health risks linked to smoking are alarming, but the simple act of quitting can increase your life span. After not smoking for one year, your risk of heart attack starts to decline. After 10 years, your chances of developing heart disease are the same as someone who never smoked - Your risk of hnmg cancer levels off once you stop smoking. Soon after you stop smoking. you should notice some of the benefits of quitting. In a short time: • Your breathing will become easier • Your smoker's cough (hack) will disappear • Your sense of taste will improve - Your sense of smell will become sharper • Your energy level will increase Your clothes and hair will no longer smell of snake • Your fingers and teeth will lost their yellow colour - Your skin will regain its natural moisture One of the most common factors associated with attempting to quit, particularly among women, is the fear of weight gain. Research shows that weiht gain does not have to go hand-in-hand with quitting. If you stop snaking, you have a one -in -three chance of gaining weight. You may even kse weight because you feel better and are exercising more. Thousands of Canadians .have already broken the habit and overcome an addiction. Think about it. Aren't you ready to join the quitting team'! SFtoorpmore information, write: Be Bloom West Smite 1500 Toronto, Ontario MSS 2V1
