Q. Since our eyes are constantlybeing cleansed with tears,
why aren't we always crying? What happens to these tears?
G.H.
A. After a tear has cleansed the eyeball, it goes through the
little hole at the inner corner of the lower eyelid. From
there it runs through a canal to the lacrimal sac and then in-
to the nose.
As long as the amount of tears manufactured is small,
this exit plan works beautifully. When an overabundance of
tears is produced, the eye fills up because the tears cannot
all get through the little hole quickly enough. The excess
overflows the lower eyelid and runs down the cheek.
Q. I am told that there is a tapestry which depicts William
the Conquerer. Is this true? A.C.
A. Yes, it is the Bayeau tapestry. Measuring 230 feet long
and 20 inches wide, this light color, embroidered work of 72
scenes shows the story of the Norman conquest of England
in 1066. William the conquerer led the conquest.
The scenes begin with a visit to Bosham by the English
King Harold and ends with the Battle of Hastings, where the
English fled. One scene features the appearance of Halley's
comet.
Who ordered the tapestry done has been disputed for cen-
turies. While some believe that the wife of William had it
made, many others claim that the Bishop of Bayeau and
William's half brother, Odo, commissioned the work.
French women probably did the handwork.
The tapestry is displayed under glass in Bayeau, France.

Opinion

for you and us
Property Rights
The fact that our federal and provincial representatives
back in the Trudeau era couldn't come up with an agree-
ment on "property rights" for the charter of rights and con-
stitution is creating a problem for some Scarborough
homeowners - and it will for everyone of us if we try to de-
fend our home.
A man in Scarborough has been charged by police when
he fired four shots in the air to scare away intruders. So far
we haven't heard of the police arresting any of the in-
truders, but it seems ridiculous that a man protecting his
own home cannot take action. After all it takes time for a
person to dial 911 and wait for police action. it might be the
best w•ay in most cases, but there are times when one must
take immediate action.
Another local case involves a man who has injured an in-
truder entering his house. He has been charged with assault
with a knife.
These are cases which prove that our old way of depen-
ding on the :Magna Carta and British justice evolved over
the centuries is superior to the current written charter and
constitution, which rules will be tested in the courts long
past the lifetime of most of us. In the meantime we can't de-
fend our property or our lives without a charge.
'Many Americans warned us not to have a written con-
stitution or charter of rights because it is too inflexible and
many key things get left out. The proof is in the charges now
laid against local homeowners who tried to defend their
homes from attack.
Push Subway All The Way
Construction of the Shep-
pard Avenue Subway is
needed to avert mounting
traffic congestion in nor-
thern Scarborough, says
Gem Phillips. Liberal
candidate in the provincial
riding of Scarborough -
Agincourt.
He said he is forming a
non-partisan citizens' com-
mittee to advocate im-
provements in both rapid
transit and major traffic
arteries in the area.
Phillips said a major
goal of the committee will
be to obtain an early com-
pletion of a joint provincial -
municipal study of
transportation re-
quirements in the greater
Metro Toronto area. Plans
for the study were an-
nounced in the Legislature
recently by Transportation
and Communications
Minister Ed Fulton.
Phillips said he sees no
connection between provin-
cial funding of construction
of Highway 407 - announced
in the budget speech of
Treasurer Bob Nixon last
week - and the Sheppard
Ave. Subuay "This is not
an either or situation." he
stated.
The initial phase of
Highway 44f7 will take eight
years and will extend only
from Highway 427 to 400 in
the northwestern quadrant
of the Metro area. Phillips
pointed out.
Following a meeting with
Mr. Fulton, Phillips said he
is satisfied the province is
aware of the growing traf-
fic congestion in the nor-
thern sections of Scar-
borough and North York.
and of the need to resolve
transportation concerns in
the area.
The review announced by
the Minister is an essential
first step in securing the
province's commitment to
fund ,5 percent of the sub-
way capital cost of the
Sheppard Avenue Subway.
Phillips said.
He added that the Shep-
pard Ave. Subway should
be built in a single phase
from Yonge Street to the
Scarborough Town Centre,
rather than just to Victoria
Park Avenue as proposed
in a joint TTC-Metro study.
"Network 2011".
Phillips said he is in-
y,ting Scarborough
residents to join a non-
partisan committee he is
setting up to obtain com-
munity input on transpor-
tation issues and to urge
Metro and provincial sup-
port for the Sheppard Ave.
Subway. Interested

Bob's Notes
Happy Birthday Dr. Emily Stowe
The Emily Stowe Shelter for Women - a United Way

their children. The shelter, together with Women's College
Hospital, will be holding a week long birthday celebration
for Dr. Emily Stowe beginning May 25. Born in 1813, Dr.

dian woman to practice medicine and w•as actively involved
in the establishment of Women's College Hospital.
Rental Standards Board
Minister of Housing Alvin Curling has announced the
creation of and appointments to the Residential Rental
Standards Board. "The creation of this board is one of the
most significant aspects of our new rent review system,"
Mr. Curling said. "The days are gone when rents could go
up even though building maintenance went down.
Lawyer Gillian Burton, of Toronto, has been appointed
chairman of the 10 -member Board, which includes in-
dividuals from tenant groups, landlord organizations. the
building industry, inspection associations and the provin-
cial and municipal governments.
Assessing Education
The Ministry of Education will undertake provincial

tary and secondary levels. Education Minister Sean Con-
way has announced. Beginning with a pilot project that will
assess student performance in Canadian studies

grade 9 and 10 level this spring, the Ministry will conduct
two assessments per year of student achievement from
among the areas of mathematics math6matiques

March MI -S Sales Set Record
"MELS sales for :March totalled 6,191 the best month ever
in the history of Toronto Real Estate Board," Board Presi-
dent John Oliver has announced. "Last month's record
sales represent a 7% increase over May, 1986, the previous
best month, and a 32% increase over March, of last year."
"As has been the case for the first two months of this year,
the number of new properties coming onto the market have
not been keeping pace with the high demand. The increase
in demand is the result of lower and more stable interest
rates, as well as the shortage of rental accommodation,"
explained Mr. Oliver.
April '87 Tops April '86
Multiple Listing Service (MLS) home sales in Canada's
25 major markets appear to be plateauing - at first glance -
but a closer look reveals the true strength of the market,
says The Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA) .
Preliminary residential MLS sales activity in April rose
2.92 percent to 20,223 units over the comparable figure of
19,649 transactions a year earlier.

NY Schools Boost Business Ties
North York's secondary
schools plan to build and
fortify bridges with the
business community with
the help of provincial
grants.
With aid from the
Ministry of Education's
Ties to Business and In-
dustry Incentive Fund,
each secondary school will
receive $1,500 ($750 per
year for 1987 and 1988) to
establish new and increase
existing ties with local
businesses and industry.
The North York Board will
ante $5,000 for similar city-
wide activities.
The monies can be used
to attract career day guest
speakers or resource peo-
ple, to fund student and
teacher visits to local
businesses, industries and
organizations, to develop
courses and programs in
co-operation with local
business and industry
representatives, and to
host meetings, or employer
appreciation and orienta-
tion events.
The board's Special Pro-
grams and Student Ser-
vices Department will ad-
minister the funds. They
are to be applied to ex-
penses directly associated
with the program, that is,
salaries. benefits, travel
costs. meeting and office
expenses, and publication

Kauai Was The Best Island
by Bob Watson
Last week we told of our
trip to Hawaii and especial-
ly to Oahu and Waikiki
Beach where we stayed for
six days. But it was the
next island - Kauai - which
was the best, we thought.
Kauai is the most nor-
therly island in the
Hawaiian group and half of
the island is owned by the
state and the population is
43,000.
We stayed at a beautiful
on the beach accommoda-
tion called the BeachBoy
Hotel in the Coconut Plan-
tation resort complex in
Waipouli. The rooms had
sliding doors facing on to a
lovely green lawn and a
view of the ocean, complete
with a lovely sandy beach.
There were tennis courts
on site and just down the
road an 18 hole golf course
where yours truly did his
first ever golfing and
managed to make it around
nine holes'
Right in our complex was
a market place and
restaurant, so you could
hang out all four days right
near your hotel room.
However, we opted, along
with Marg and Tom
Turner, to rent a car and
visit all along the island
const.
We saw some interesting
caves and rocky coastline
which produced a great
photograph of the sea and
heights of land. Great place
for photographers looking
for the photo of the year.
And then we came to
Charo's Restaurant and
Bar but unfortunately.
Charo herself was not there

According to the many

that are available all over
Hawaii there are many
helicopters which will take
you for a ride along the
shoreline and into the hills
of each island. We stuck to
our car, though, and found
that we could stop fre-
quently and see more that
way.
The final visit we made
on Kauai was up a lovely
river by boat with a hula
girl, singers and musicians
while we watched other
canoes racing in a universi-
ty meet. It was the Wailua
River and our destination
was the Fern Grotto.
According to history the

Nuclear Evacuation Plan Will Not Work Say Scarborough Politicians
by Gay Abbate
An evacuation plan in
case of an emergency at
the Pickering Nuclear
Plant will not work say
Scarborough politicians.
If there were an
emergency at the plant,
some 40,000 Scarborough
residents living within a 10
km. radius would have to
be evacuated. The 10 km.
distance takes in almost
everything in Scarborough
east of Morningside. The
plan calls for Scarborough
residents to go to the CNE
where an evacuation cen-
tre would be set up.
A brochure informing
People what to do in case of
a nuclear emergency is be-
ing prepared by Ontario
Hydro and the provincial
government for distribu-
tion to all residents living
within the 10 km. distance.
But Scarborough politi-
cians and the city's
medical officer of health
says the evacuation plan
leaves a lot to be desired.
For instance, notifying
residents of an emergency
alert has been left up to the
media. But Alderman
Edith Montgomery, whose
ward falls within the
evacuation area, says if an
emergency occurred dur-
ing the night only those tun-
ed to a radio or television
would know there was a
problem.
The alderman has sug-
gested that air raid sirens
be used to alert people. The
police have said they do not
have the manpower or
equipment to sound the
alert but will evacuate peo-
ple once that order has
been given.
Dr. Keith Fitzgerald.
Scarborough's MOH. says
the plan will not work for a
number of reasons.
Because schools will be
evacuated to other schools,
parents are asked to go to
the evacuation centre
directly. Fitzgerald said it
will be the parent's natural
instinct to collect their
children. He said he does
not believe people will
leave their pets behind in
an evacuation as directed
by the brochure.
The plan also calls for
iodine pills to be
distributed to those
evacuated in case of ex-
posure to radiation. Fit-
zgerald said that unless
people go to the evacuation
centre they will not be able
to get the pills which have
to be taken within four
hours of exposure to radia-
tion. The pills prevent
cancer of the thyroid gland
only.
Fitzgerald said that since
studies conducted in
emergencies in the U.S.
show that only a small
percentage of people go to
evacuation centres not all
who need the pills will have
access to than.
The MOH says the
government and Hydro
should either give the pills
to those in the 10 kms.
radius now or scrap the
whole idea of distributing
the pills which have a shelf
life of only 2 to 3 years.
Residents Against Proposed Funeral Home
There was standing room
only at the Brimwood
Public School in Agincourt
as representatives from
the Percy Wiliams,
Blackhawk, Brimley
Forest and the Malvern
community associations
discussed a proposed
funeral bona at McNicoll
and Brimley Rd.
John Alpin, president of
Brumley Forest Communi-
ty Association, chaired the
meeting and Alderman Bob
Sanders was in attendance.
Mr. Humphrey and his

New Owners At
Hickory Tree Restaurant
The new owners of the Hickory Tree Restaurant
in Chartwell Plaza at the corner of Brimley and
Huntingwood Dr. in Agincourt, are getting their
restaurant into the above average bracket for local
folks to enjoy.
Sharon Colman, who was formerly with the Old
Scott House, is the manager while partner George
Papagiannis, who was with the Black Castle
Restaurant in Brampton previously, is the chef.
They have an excellent dining room and the food
is said to be of top quality while the prices are very
reasonable. A visit would let diners know for sure
that this area of Scarborough has another excellent
dining establishment. (Photo - Bob Watson)

ON STAGE
The recently formed
English Shakespeare Com-
pany is currently appear-
ing at the Royal Alexandra
Theatre in repertory. The
plays being presented are
Henry IV, Parts I and II
and Henry V. Each Satur-
day, all three are presented
chronologically.
With appreciation to
Samuel Pepys for the in-
spiration, allow us to
chronicle our last Saturdav
spent reviewing a
Shakespeare triple header.
We arose at the crack of
the back and while setting
ourself up, planned our
wardrobe. Blazer and flan-
nels come always nobly to
the rescue. Since we would
still be at the theatre in the
evening, black trousers
were de rigeur and we mat-
ched them with a
lightweight garnet blazer.
The shoes chosen were
straight line last with laces
for timely adjustment. We
looked like a member of the
late Guy Lombardo's
Royal Canadians but were
presentable and comfor-
table.
We probably shouldn't
make wardrobe comments
for the ladies but we sug-
gest a hghweight frock of
medium hue.
M excellent ride on the
subwav and short walk
along Bing St. brought us to
the theatre in ample time
to pick up our tickets and
re%-iew the fine program -
history and narrative of the
plays are well and briefly.
presented - and settled
back to enjoy our day. The
presentation began in the
'.Best of British" promptly
at 11 a.m.
The three plays must be
considered and evaluated
as a unit. We will not bore
readers with a restatement
of the familiar narrative. It
is sufficient to remind that
the theme is that of the of-
fice creating the man.
Henry the Fifth was a
dissolute youth but the
timely realized love of a
father and the call of the
purple to the throne
transformed him from a
mere prince of the realm
into a prince among men
and one of the more
revered of the English
monarchs.
The ESC is an ensemble
creation and company but
even so it is impossible not
to single out a trio of per-
formers for special men-
tion.
Co-founder and co -
artistic director, Michael
Pennington, a stunning
onstage lookalike for a
much younger Gordon
Jackson, brilliantly and
with seeming deceptive
ease plays Henry V. Even
in dissolution one sees his
nobility; in statesmanship,
his common touch. It is a
much more complex role
than many before him have
realized but Mr. Penn-
ington meets its challenge
and provides performances
that will live in memory.
Falstaff is a plummy
role, so plummy indeed
that many are inclined to
',saw the air" with it. John
Woodvine to whom the role
has been given, does not.
The flamboyance, lovable
I) ing and well bred lechery
are those of the role, not
Mr. Woodvine. We believe
that what we see in his per-
formance is what
Shakespeare wrote, not the
overblov.ings of acting or
directorial ego. We cannot
recall a better FaLstaff.
Then. in a complete
reversal of role, he appears
in Henry V as chorus _ Gone
is the posturing fat bellied
tosspot to be replaced by a
slim grey-haired
gentleman in blue blazer
and grey flannels who is
the epitome of an executive
directing the affairs of a
company. Pun intended.
Well done Mr. Woodvine.
John Price portrays
Hotspur in the fust play
and Pistol in the latter two.
Some will fid similarity in
the roles but where the
former is to the estate
born• the latter is from the
gutter. Mr. Price does both
roles well. indeed. so well,
that he commands atten-
tion each time he is on
stage.
And, oh there are so
many other fine perfor-
mances' In fact. there are
no performances less than
excellent.
Director and co-founder,
Michael Bogdanov,
presents The Henrys in
more or less modern dress -
the costuming can be con-
fusing - and in a manner
that should not offend
Shakespeare purists. Hal's
companions of the stews
are now punkers, King
Henry's rabble are now
street smart: really just an
updating of Shakespeare's
intention.
The English Shakespeare
Company is an important
addition to the world of the
performing arts and its
production of the Henrys
one of the most ratable of
endeavours.
Mind you, the three
works cannot be seen as
pure unalloyed joy. The
first half of Henry IV, Part
II, for example, is largely a
comic piece for Falstaff
and a little goes a long way.
That, however, is the fault
of the playwright, not the
production.
The production, must be
noted though, for the
previously mentioned con-
fusing costuming and for
the sometime incongruity
of sets in the represen-
tative manner.
Still, taken all in all, The
Henrys can be said to be
triumphant and certainly
well recommended to all.
We started this piece in-
tending to emulate Pepys
but became sidetracked
along the way.
Allow us to repair then as
we mention the excellent
luncheon at Old Ed's and
the excellent dinner at Ed's
Italian. Both were just first
rate and confu-m again our
contention that the Ed's
restaurants provide the
best dollar for dollar value
in the city.
The Henrys and The
Eds: quite a combination.
Mother fast ride on the
subway home. a cordial
and. thanks again to Pepys.
so to bed.
IN CONCERT:
As long in the tooth as we
are, it still amazes us that
some people can be blessed
with so much talent.
Consider Mery Griffin.
Heaven knows he is an af-
fable enough talk show host
but few are aware that he is
one of the wealthiest men
in North America because
of his shrewd business
acumen.
Some will know that he
used to be a fine singer and
still is an excellent pianist.
How many are aware,
though. that he is a world
seeded tennis player'
Among writers, think
about Lloyd C. Douglas, W.
Somerset Maugham, A. J.
Cronin and Frank G.
Slaughter. The first named
was a Doctor of Divinity,
the next two were M.D.s
and the last namedwas
both a D.D. and an M.D. So
much talent!
All of the foregoing br-
ings us by an admittedly
circuitous route to a con-
cert to be held this Sunday
at 7 p.m at Roy Thomson
Hall.
It is the debut concert of
classical soprano Lydia
Tyson. The lady makes her
home in Toronto but is
originally from Trinidad.

Village hosts the annual
Rogationtide service, on
Sun. June 14, at 2 p.m.
The service is a religious
ceremony that was brought
to Canada by settlers from
England. During the ser-
vice, the minister asks for
God's blessing on the
farmers' seeds, animals,
and water.
Traditionally, the boun-
daries of the parish are re-
established by "beating the
bounds". This is done by
symbolically marking the
corners of the village and
asking for God's blessing.

ners of two acting awards

ting the hilarious comedy

Faculty of Music of the
University of Toronto, the
Choir Director and
Organist of the Church of
the Apostles and she is also
a private music teacher.
One might think that all
that is more than enough of
accomplishment for a
young lady about to make
her concert debut in one of
the world's most
prestigious halls.
There is even more: Miss
Tyson is a registered
nose! As we sit here at our
battered Smith -Corona we
find ourself reflecting at
the amount of varied talent
that The Creator has
bestowed an some.
Even more so, we find
ourself anticipating this
young lady's "debut" and.
let it be admitted, taking
pleasure in bringing it to
your attention. Now. please
allow us to sit back and
salivate in anticipation of
her selections from the
overture to Idomeneo.

Where Will The Eglinton/ Kennedy L
i
by Gay Abbate
The fate of the Eglin-
ton/Kennedy library hangs
by a fine thread as politi-
cians and citizen members
on the Scarborough
Library Board clash over
location.
Last week, the board, by
a 5 to 4 margin, which pit-
ted the 5 citizens against
the 4 politicans, voted to
locate the branch library
on the north-west corner of
Eglinton and Kennedy and
to enter into negotiations
with the plaza owner over
leasing a store.
The bone of contention
appears to be the $15 per
sq. ft. being asked by the
owner. The board pays less
for space at Morningside
Mall and at Eglinton
Square.
"The owner wants max-
imum mall prices for an
old sleezy plaza," said Con-
troller Frank Faubert. The
$15 asking price is double
the rent other tenants are
paying -
But board chairman
Susan Hunt says the board
pays this much for lease
space elsewhere. "Are we
saying that the people of
the Eglinton 'Kennedy area
are not worth what we are
paying elsewhere?" Hunt
said.
Alderman Maureen
Prinsloo says she voted
against it because a com-

munity survey shows that
none of the respondents
want the library on the
north-west corner. The
favoured site is the north-
east plaza.
Hunt cast the tie break-
ing vote. She said what the
board did was only to

the price. If the price is too
high, politicians can turn it
down when request for

Browes To Host Forum
"From Education to Oc-

luncheon forum on youth
which Pauline Browes,
M.P. Scarborough Centre,
is holding on Sun. May 31st
at 12:30 p.m. in the Broom
and Stone Restaurant with
the Hon. Jean Charest
Minister of State for Youth.
The forum will focus on
helping young people make
the adjustment from the
school room to the work
place. "The transition bet-
ween the end of school and
the start of a career is one
of the most important
challenges Canada's youth
face," says Browes, "and it
is a challenge that the
minister has made his top
priority."
The forum will be an ex-
cellent opportunity for the
constituents of Scar-
borough Centre, par-
ticularly young people and
their parents, to become
familiar with the many
issues and programs that
involve youth.
In order to cover the cost
of the lunch, tickets will be
sold for $12 and can be pur-
chased by calling Paul

a standard -efficiency gas or oil
furnace, it actually reduces your
heating bills.
So when you're thinking about
air conditioning this summer, why
not have air conditioning that
reduces your heating bills as well?

Objects For
Personal
Adornment
Presented in celebration
of the Royal Ontario
Museum's 75th anniver-
sary, '-Eye of the
Beholder: Objects for Per-
sonal Adornment" spans a
broad spectrum of human
history, geography and
personalities.
The 570 objects in this ex-
hibition range from protec-
tive amulets and soldiers'
daggers, to miniature por-
traits treasured by secret
lovers, and the tiny faience
beads which once circled
the ankle of an Egyptian
child.
Artifacts are drawn from
more than 20 different
cultures and nations, an-
cient and modern, in Asia,
Europe, North and South
America and Africa.
They date from as early
as the jewellery and
cosmetic containers of
Egypt (ca. 2000 B.C.) to a
1922 French Lalique per-
fume bottle and an in-
flatable plastic bracelet
from 1987.
The loan items include a
small collection of
priceless historic jewellery
from the Smithsonian In-
stitution. You'll see Marie
Antoinette's earrings and
the "Napoleon necklace".
Nearly 20 programs, in-
cluding lectures and per-
formances, highlight this
major exhibition which will
continue until Aug. 30.
Tickets are available at
Ticketron'Teletron
(872-1212) or at the ROM.

Propane Fridges Must Be Serviced
Poorly maintained pro-
pane refrigerators can be
dangerous.
Although propane fridges
can serve their owners
safely for many years. an-
nual servicing is vital, say
experts with the Ontario
Ministry of Consumer and
Commercial Relations
(MCCR) . In 1985, three On-
tario residents were killed
by carbon monoxide
poisoning when propane
fridges malfunctioned due
to improper maintainance.
In the past decade, 36 peo-
ple died in similar in-
cidents.
Seasonal operation of the
appliances - most are used
only during summer mon-
ths - is a major reason for
malfunctions, says Bob
Clendining, director of the
ministry's Fuels Safety
Branch. While sitting unus-
ed, the burners and flue
passages can become
blocked by dust, cobwebs
and debris.
If the appliances are not
carefully checked and
cleaned before they are
started again, deadly car-
bon monoxide could be pro-
duced.
In a 1964 tragedy, typical
of propane fridge ac-
cidents, an elderly couple
died when the refrigerator
at their cottage produced
lethal doses of the gas. Ex-
perts later found the pro-
pane burner had become
folded.
It was the first time the
cottage had been used that
Year and all the windows
were tightly sealed, as they
had been all winter. The
couple died in their sleep.
Carbon monoxide is a
colourless, odorless gas
that causes dizziness,
nausea, headaches and, in
large doses, death.
Owners of propane
fridges should have the ap-
pliances tuned -up and
cleaned as part of the an-
nual cottage -opening
routine. loo not operate the
refrigerator until it has
been serviced, Clendining
advises.
..Unless you're an ex-
pert, have the maintenance
done by a professional,.. he
says.
Your propane dealer will
be able to give you the
name of a qualified pro-
pane refrigerator service
person -
Since propane is
odorless, a rotten egg or
cabbage scent is added to
make it easily detectable.
If you ever notice this
smell, don't light a match
or turn an electrical switch
on or off. A small spark
could cause an explosion.
Open all the doors and
windows, leave the
building and turn off the
propane valve on the out-
side tank. Call in an expert
to find the leak and do not
use the appliance until it
has been repaired.
Further information is
available in a brochure en-
titled Living Safely with
Propane, produced by the
ministry. Copies can be ob-
tained from many propane
dealers and the Consumer
Information Centre, 555

FOR REPLACEMENT
THERMAL WINDOWS
Introduction
(a) Historically we have constructed our
homes against the elements. The abundant
availability of cheap fuel we enjoyed in the
past is not likely to reappear. Today,
expensive energy is directing homeowners to
seek new alternatives for window heat loss as
the likelihood of scandalous fuel costs will
emerge to plague our pocketbook.
(b) A recent study made by a senior level of
government on energy conservation, and
circulated by one of Canada's respected
consumer periodicals, describes heat -loss
incurred through one single -glazed window in
the home "as equivalent to removing one
brick from a wall and exposing a hole." Where
five windows of this type appear, the exposed
opening approaches the size equal to that of
a brief cover.
What aro the benefits?
The benefit of any retrofit (replacement)
work are greatest for windows that are in the
poorest condition. So, expect dramatic
improvements for drafty. single -glazed
windows and recognize the highest limits of
window perforrriance of well -sealed, muttipW
glazed units.
When considering multiple -glazed
windows, keFp in mind that it is the thickness
of the air -space between the glass that
determines the insulating value. Buy windows
having 19mm (314 in.) of air -space for the best
insulating value. windows with 12.7mm (112
in.) of air space may be adequate - anything
less is money foolishly spent.
Homeowners have a variety of valid
needs.. one or more of the following might
perhaps be yours
1. Window heat toss - Air leakage
No matter how high it's insulating value, an
improperly sealed window will allow
excessive heat bas from air leakage - the
ph" culprit mostly contributing to high fuel
costs. Well -sealed double glazed windows
throughout the home may approach savings
in a yearly fuel bill of up to 25%.

Dos and don'ts
for split ends
BY REN'll %IN( E:\T
Here are a few basic dos
and don'ts about split ends
and how to avoid them:
Home made pin curls and
,)rush rollers promote split
ends. In this regard, a protes-
, onal is in a better position
to make an evenly -round pin
purl and will not use bobby
pins to hold it.
You can reduce the pres-
,ure of the metal clip on the
Hair by wrapping each pin
curl with an end paper.
Plastic brushes and combs
with broken teeth may catch
the hair and crack its keratin
or protein.
Do not use a hair dryer too
close to your hair. These high
powered 1,500 and 1,200 -
watt hair dryers are for pro-
fessional hairdressers. Yours
should be of 800 watts only.
Never jerk a comb or
brush roughly through your
hair. They should be drawn

BUDGET FACTS?
A few facts that you will probably not see in many head-
lines are in order.
FACT: In three budgets the Liberals have increased spen-
ding by nearly 8 billion dollars, to just under 35 billion
dollars.
FACT: In buoyant economic times the Treasurer is still
budgeting for an operating account deficit.
FACT: After eight years of reducing the size of the public
service by the previous government the Liberal Govern-
ment has turned that around. The Public Service has grown
by approximately 3000 in just two years at an.annual cost of
some $200 million.
FACT: The Futures Program, skills training for young peo-
pie, announced with great fanfare in the 1985 budget was to
assist 230,000 young people by the end of 1986. To May 1987
only 50,000 have been assisted, about 22% of the goal.
FACT: If the announced programs and Ministry allocations
are correct, the actual budgeted deficit is 1.330 billion
dollars, not 980 million. This will be an increased deficit
over the 1986-87 actuals.
FACT: Last years' strong economy produced an additional
1.3 billion dollars of extra revenue over budget. Over one
billion of that was spent over the budget.
FACT: Projected spending growth in the budget will be 1.7
times the expected rate of inflation.
FACT: With the many prottottncements regarding the
governments committment for education. the provincial
support of the system has dropped from 48 6% of total costs
when the government changed to something less than 46%.
FACT: The Treasurer did finally fulfill one 1985 election
promise, two years later. The sales tax exemption an fast
foods will be at the $4 level June 1.
FACT: Unfulfilled 1985 election promises.
- The abolition of OHIP premiums.
- The $100 tax credit for Northerners has been forgotten.
- Nondelivery of a massive dentacare program for the
young and seniors.
- A promise to restore provincial funding of education to the
60% level. As already mentioned it has decreased.
And the last but most important
FACT: The "budget makes Ontario vulnerable to any bad
new that could come down the tubes". In short, as indicated
by the Sun's business editor - "Spend today, without worry-
ing about tomorrow".
smoothly and gently. It .our
hair is long, the comb or
hrush should be drawn
through lengths of about six
inches at a time after you
havc applied a cream rinse on
%our hair.
Nv6cr, use a metal comb.
It will take about a month
of twice -weekly protein treat-
ments to correct a split end
condition. This treatment
should thereafter be repeated
once a month to keep your
hair strong and tight.
Ask your hairdresser. He
knows which treatment or
conditioner is best for your
hair and take some home for
use in between salon visits.

1 would like to discuss a new program that was announc-
ed two weeks ago by Bernard Valcourt, the Minister of
State ( Small Business and Tourism) . The program is called
Paperwork Redaction Action Plan, and its purpose is to
reduce the burden of paperwork affecting small businesses
in Canada.
This is the first time a federal government has ever in-
itiated a program of this type, and I am sure that there are
many small business owners who will be very pleased with
its introduction. I can understand and share in their con-
cern, as does the present administration. In fact, this pro-
gram is only one of many steps that we have taken to make
life a little easier for small businesses.
Some of the initiatives we have already taken include the
following: 1) Reducing Survey Duplication (Statistics
Canada) ; 2) Ore -step Sourcing Registration ( Supply & Ser-
vices Canada) ; 3) New Short -Form Contract ( Supply & Ser-
vices Canada) ; 4) Simplified Filing Requirements
( Revenue Canada -Excise) ; 5) Fewer Forms and Simpler
Procedures for Imports ( Revenue Canada -Customs) ; and
6) Small Business Co-ordinators appointed in local offices
(Employment & Immigration Canada).
As well, a private sector advisory committee will be set
up to provide advice and suggestions on paperwork reduc-
tion. The committee will be made up of representatives
from the Canadian Federation of Independent Business, the
Canadian Organization of Small Business, the Canadian
Chamber of Commerce and the Canadian Manufacturers
Association, to name a few.
They will serve as a liaison between the small business
community and the federal government to work on cutting
the red tape and help solve problems brought to the com-
mittee by concerned entrepreneurs.
I have listened to the concerns of many business people in
my riding regarding the burden of paperwork and regula-
tion, and I believe these initiatives will emphasize our com-
mitment to the private sector, as the private sector pro-
motes economic growth, which in turn, means more jobs.
