What is the source of the phrase -You pays your money and you takes your choice"? M.L.P. A. This line appeared in Punch in 1846 and is found in the English rhyme: Whatever you please my little dears: You pays your money and you takes your choice. You pays your money and what sees is A cow or a donkey julst as you pleases. It is an expression signifying that in a choice between two similar alternatives, you may as well rely on luck to get the best choice. Q. How old are yo-yos' Where did they conrie from' L. D.

Sept. 23.1987 Opinion a page for expression for you and us I Am A Canadian by Bob Watson Je suis un Canadien! Ibis %%Titer attended the nine hour long debate about heritage languages at the Scarborough Board of Education last week and couldn't believe what some immigrant people were saving. First of all we must inform our readers that this writer is a fifth generation Canadian through his mother (as well as an 11 generation North American through her) but his father was an Englishman. For the first 19 years of my life I had to battle to have my father accept that I was not an Englishman but a Canadian. Of course. until 1947 there wasn't an official Canadian citizenship. So as far as this Canadian is concerned we thought the identity of a "Cana- dian" had been resolved in 1947. But at the heritage language debate last week. I was sur- prised and disturbed to hear newcomers to otr land saying that people like yours truly were "British Cawdians". Not only that they left no doubt that we -British Canadians - were in the minority and the so called "ethnic" groups were now in control. Fortunately. I have talked to many immigrant Canadians about this *issue and in my opinion. the majority of new Canadians are quitte happy beirig in otw glorious land. especially for the economics available, and are not worried aboutw4iedw their children keep up the parents* language. And the Canadian -born offspring of these different kinds of new Canadians; are quite Canadian in ever) way and often fighting their pare to be part of this land and not their parer"' old cotmtrN and its many traditional problems. It is high time in this country that immigration offwials alert all lincoming people that this; is Canada. a country ainch welcomes them but umsts on only two languages in the market place and Parliament. and their culture can be maintained in the bome but the object of their residencN here is to convert in time to real 100% Canadians. If this isn't the objective of otxr unimigration service it is high time that the federal government made these changes. or Canada &-ill become a divioded. noo-expressive psece of land of no value to any of us. Those of us who have fought to keep the Nazis from ruling the world will also fight to keep Canada for Canadians and will not accept a dm name. such as, British Canadiast. in use in our land. Let's Abofish Strikes Well. we have an elementary teachers* strike and next an the list is the inside workers' of Jean Claude Parrot, who despite having some of the best pay in our society are going on strike. We tnxst the go% ernments. -&-ill legislate them both back - after all. everyone loses un a strike. Important Lesson Dear Sir: The Ontario PCs should learn an important lesson from the recent Liberal landslide. Last Jammir) we wrote to more than 15.000 voters in On- tano and predicted the lesson they would be taught: -Why vote for a Red Tory. * * we asked rhetorically. "when you can get the real thing with the Liberal -socialist alliance" Tory leader Larry Grossman virtually guaranteed the collapse of his party when he opted to mimic many of the Liberal and NDP's interventionist poficies. This is his record: Grossman strongly supported the statist concept of so- called "pay equity". He opposed the draconian Liberal -pay equity" legislation only because he said it did not go far enough. He opposed plans by the Liberals to privatize some government run companies. He resisted efforts by the government to relax rent con- trws. Indeed, Grossman became so firmly identified with such initerventionist policies that his last ditch. half-hearted con version to conservative ideas durting the election campaign fooled no one. The departure of Mr. Grossman however. provides the Ontario Progressive Conservative party with a golden op- portunity to transform their party into a clear alternative. Thev can once again become a party winch truly stands for conservative principles like individual freedom and respon- sibility under smaller government. Yours sincerely.

"This price adjustment is not unusual given the market growth experienced the past year and a half," Board Presi- dent Oliver said, adding that members are pleased the ad- justment occurred gradually. allowing buyers and sellers time to carefully assess their expectations. One Million Hot Meals Annually 15,000 Meals On Wheels volunteers delivered 1,000,000 hot meals to 15,000 homebound people across Ontario last year. It is a tradition that started almost 25 years ago and con- tinues to be an important part of life for many elderly, disabled and homebound people across the province. Meals On Wheels Week, Sept. 13-19. celebrates the work of our volunteers and encourages new people to become involved with the program. Expanded Apprenticeship The number of young people participating annually in On- tario's apprenticeship system will iticrease by 2D,000 within five years as a result of new measures annotinced by Gregory Sorbara, Minister of Skills Development. The $14 million package will include innovative training ap- proaches, training in new trades, measures to attract more women, financial support for apprentices' tools, and more apprentices in government.

"Watt -s Up" was also selected as a firmlist in two other categories. New Tax Could Cost Jobs If the federal government's White Paper on tax reform is enacted it could result in a flight of capital invemment and job losses ror Canadians. The government wants to uK=m the taxes on capital Sams, which am the profits. acquired through nsk-y investments. Such a policy would dis�ourage capital nivestrnew which is critical to )ob creation. One of Britain's largest managers of investment trusts looks upon the Of J capital gains tax increase with alarm. Mr- Alex Hammond - Chambers. of Ivory and Suine PLC, has in= than $ 100 million invested in Canadian companies. He recently wrote that -the taxation of the cf=- tion of wealth in a country with a rich resource base but a saiall population base is economically unsound. We will have to mconsidcr our commitment to Canada should these proposals become la* ­ The proposal which Mr. Ham- mond -Chambers objects to is an increase of the marginal tax rate on capital gains by 38.2 per cent for Quebeckers and 30 per cent for residents of Ontario. That will result in top marginal tax rates of 39 1 per cent and 34.5 per cent respectively. For other provinces the increased rates am comparable. This makcs the Canadian rate among the highest in the western world. Ottawa has justified the increased rate by pointing out that it will incrcase government revenues by about $160 million in 19N8 and by S275 million in 1990 The problem with taxing invest- ment income. however, is that it has the effect of discouraging risk taking by entrepreneurs. Consider an investor who makes a ten yew unvstvwnt that gives a return of 15 per cent in a chniat of 5 per cent annual raflation. If be tbcn pays the inaxiinum capital pins tax rate his real gain is only 5,7 per cent mid not IS per - , -. This is certainly not an attractive reward for an nivestor who is risking his c:r tal Invearrient capital is flu and entrepreneurs can easily invest their funds in places which proatise a better return. Sonic countries such as Ger- many. Italy and Japan have no capital pins tax" at all. These countries want to attract invearrient capit.l. The Canadian goverriment on the other hand se"ns detcrmined to drive out investnicrit. This will have the effect of slowing cconornic growth. which means fewer )obs, lower pro- ductivity and a reduced competitive position in world commerce. Increas- ing taxes on the risk-takcrs is counter- productive and will lead to a lower standard of living for all. It would make more sense for the government to cut the dcfmit by reducing spending and not by raising taxes. Further, instead of increasing capital gains taxes. Ottawa should introduce sonic real tax reform and reduce or even eliminate them. This would have the ciffect of encouraging risk taking which would create wealth and jobs. It is not in Canada's interest to penalize those individuals who save, take risks and are successful at accumulating capital. It is their entrepreneurial activity. after all, which is the real engine of economic growth. David Somerville Ls President of the National Citizens * Coalition.

Under that policy, the chief could veto requests for shift swaps. Wretham. was trying to stop shift exchange so fire fighters could pursue sport interests. The decision released last week removed the chief's ability to veto ex- changes as long as specified criteria is met. The new policy requires reasons to be given within two days of the exchange.

Diamonds: Still Choice In The 80's The Diamond. ..the ultimate symbol of lave and romance, has made worldwide headlines for centuries. From Shakespeare to the Silver Screen. big names and even bigger stones have made history, mystifying and amusing even the most cynical observer. The first lucky lady was Mary of Burgundy. when in 1477 a nervous Maximilian presented a regal rock in desperate hopes of pleasing her demanding father. On that day, a tradition was born. This tradition now spans the globe and has grown in Canada so that 77% of all new brides in 1985 received diamonds of their own. In 1985, women from Madonna and Cyndi Lauper mChristy Briy and Maria Shriven receiv- ed diamond engagement r rings, keeping the diamond in the headlines. Frank Gif- ford, a renowned U.S. sportscaster gave Kathy Lee Johnson, co -host of the Morning Show a five carat diamond just to prove his intentions, while Billy Joel just couldn't wait to give Christy hers. ..he reportedly said it was burn- ing a hole in his picket! Magician Doug Henning revealed to Diamond Grand Dame Joan Rives on national television that be produced for his fiancee a three carat stone from the petals of a rose. Perhaps the most memorable engagement rings were those of Liz Taylor and Grace Kelly. In 1566. actress Grace Kelly received a 12 carat etnerald{utt diamond im- ported from Paris by her princely ftnancee Ranier III. This diamond, which was the size of a large Chili and pizza will never go out of style as far as kids are concerned.

After making her stage debut at only eight years old, she had perform- ed in over 80 shows by her 17th birthday. On May 2nd, 1981 fate dealt Chandran a cruel blow. While travelling from her annual pilgrimage at the Lord Murugan temple to Madras her bus collided with another killing one person and seriously injur- ing Chandran. ' Sudha's flesh wound was stitched up without being cleaned and within three days gangrene had set in. Doctors informed her that the only answer was im- mediate amputation of the leg just below the knee. Chandran wanted to die as death seemed less pain- ful than losing her leg and never dancing again. However, Chandran would dance again. During her six month convalesence in hospital Chandran read about Dr. Sethi and his award winn- ing .Jaipur foot. The two met in September of 1981 after Sethi received a letter from her. The Jaipur foot, unlike other artificial limbs is pliable thus allowing the patient to move with ease and, in Chandran's case, dance. After much painful deter- mination Chandran gave her first public perfor- mance with her prosthesis on Jan. 21, 1964 almost 2-1/2 years after the amputation. Since then she has acted in eight films, including "Mayuri" the story of her life and a box office smash. Sudha Chandran is op- timistic about her future and now looks upon her ac- cident as a blessing in disguise saying, "I wouldn't have become so famous without this han- dicap", leaving one wondering whether it real- ly is a handicap. The Board of Eduadon for the city e1 Scarberellgh requires Assistants - Student Care Due to the possibility of a teachers' strike within Scar- borough elementary schools, there is a need to recruit temporary staff members to assist in providing care for students who continue to attend school because parents or guardians have been unable to make other arrange- ments during the period of the strike.

Sept. 23, 11167 Around and About Your Dining & Entertainment Guide Bill Watt's Worlds IN THE CLUBS: Now that summer is over. according to the calendar anyway, one gets ready for the fall winter entertainment season. For our money. it kicks off with the opening. for a new season of the Imperial Room. It opens next Monday and features The Let- termen. The group has made several appearances 'in the room and it's always a pleasure to welcome them back. We particularly like the group because of its ap- proach to its work. It's slick. well paced and filled with sound musical values. Still. The Lettermen never take themselves too seriously. It's been our ex- perience that some groups who have managed to achieve a degree of longevity are rather much inclined to present their work as masterpieces deserving of what amounts to near adoration. Not so The Lettermen. They simply perform with geniality and a light ap- proach that lets an au- dience know they are there to entertain. They are quintessential entertainers and we look forward to see- ing them again. The engagement is for one week only. Now. where's the dinner jacket? Appearing next Tuesday for one engagement only it's Spice at The Diamond.

IN CONCERT: As this is being written, Blue Jay's catcher Ernie Whitt is swinging a hot bat and just might be the driv- ing force that'll finally take the Jays through the door at which they have been knocking so sttrenously this past half decade. Ernie Whitt is more than just a superb athlete however. He is a fine public spirited man whose ac- tivities in public service and charities are too numerous for mention here. Still. one of them should be brought to attention. albeit early. For 1967 88 Roy Thomson Hall bas again scheduled the Celebrity Family Enter- tainment Series to be presented on four Saturday afternoons. We will endeavour to report on tbem all at the appropriate times but for now, wish to mention Mr. Whitt's ap- pearance at one of them That will be on the after- noon of Jan. gird, 19118 when he will host Enter- taining Ideas with the songs and antics of Rosen- sbontz, two children's entertainers whose recor- dings have been reviewed in this space and The Ishangi Dancers who will provide drumming. singing and dancing reflective of their African culture. So go get 'ern Ernie and bring us our first World Series i against The Expos maybe') but be sure to get back in January for Enter- taining Ideas.

Lovers Atlantic Star (A & W. - A relatively unknown group. Atlantic Star has been in the music business about a comm years now and slowly building a faithful or, at least atten- tive. following with sen- timental ballads. In this album they have attempted to change this approach and emerge from de facto anonymity by presenting a bit of R & B. some funk, a torch of soul and even some disco beats . . something for everyone. By and large it works though we rather fear that there might not be enough of anything for some. The core of the group has always been the Lewis Brothers, David, Wayne and Jonathan .. anyone for The Lewis Three? .. and the strong family connec- tion allows a tightness that doesn't diminish to sparseness or paucity. In this album they have achieved a life they did not have in abundance before and we suggest it has been found by exploring areas of musical expression previously ignored. Secret Lovers should give the group the long overdue opportunity to realize a style that will no longer keep it a voice in the electronic wilderness. Just Like That 'Terry Jacks ( Attic) . This is, or was, the latest release from the best selling Cana- dian artist. This time 'round he has written, ar- ranged and produced as well as featured himself as ager. All will remember his Seasons in the Sun. Its suc- cess in the sixties made his name familiar and he went on to produce for other ar- tists such as Chilliwack and the Beach Boys. The album is filled with the same sort of soft listen- ing featuring understan- dable lyrics sung in a voice that hasn't changed noticeably in the past 25 years. Nice album, worth one's custom. ON SCREEN: One of Toronto's better known cinematographer' direc- tors is Vic Sarin who has won more awards in his career than anyone should have a right to. And, we don't mind ending a sentence with a preposition (nor starting another with a conjunction) when writing about him: he's that good. Anyway. after 23 years with the CBC Mr. Sarin has resigned to concentrate on his own film production company, Sepia Ltd We are unaware of his in- tended production schedule at this time but look for- ward to bearing or reading about it. Mr. Sarin is one man who can always be counted upon to photograph our best -cops, better -profile. What, me vain? ON T.Y. Degrassi Junior High has graduated.

The 13 in- itial episodes will be the ones shown and then, star- ting in January, episodes 14 to 26 which are now in pro- duction will be seen in the same time slot.

HOME Improvement Dear John: John Deere Answers Your Lawn and Garden Woes Water Wheel Of Fortune Dear John: I'm playing vegetable roulette by grow- ing a garden in a drought. How can I improve the chances that the plants will survive? Dear Garden Gambler: Only a roll of the dice can determine whether vegetables will make it through a drought - but there are some ways to im- prove the odds of their sur- vival. Take a plunge and plant earlier than usual if you ex- pect a particularly dry season. There's more moisture in the soil in early spring than any other time of the year. Also, water escapes rapidly from the ground when the soil is bare, so grow vegetables in wide, dense rows or blocks to trap moisture. Use weed -free mulches that bold in moisture by reducing evaporation. Cultivate around plants before watering to loosen the soil, so water will soak into the ground easily. Also, be sure your garden gets 1 inch (25 mon) of water a week. Water in the early ung so fo iage dries by evening. Dear John: De the flowers in my window box require a different treat - ment from those in my yard? Dear Pondering Pan- dora: The flowers in your window box do need a little extra care. For one thing, con- tainerized soil dries out quickly and needs watering more frequently than soil in your garden. Water flower boxes when the top 1'2 to 1 inch (1 to 2 cm) of soil dries out. Also, window box flowers need to be fertilized fre- quently - about every other week. Prune containerized flowers often to maintain their appearance. Dear John: My neighbor says his lawn is infested with grubs. Is this problem contagions' Dear Nervous Neighbor: Your lawn won't "catch" a grub problem from your neighbor's lawn. Even so. you should probably give your lawn a check-up to see if it's already grub - infested. To diagnose grub damage, pull up a piece of the damaged turf. If it lifts easily, like a carpet. grubs are probably at work and the lawn may have to be treated with a pesticide_ To cure a grub problem.

Water throughly, so the insecticide can get below the root system where grubs are feeding. See a county extension agent for advice on specific chemicals. Dear John: I learned a lot in the school of hard knocks, but not the prac- tical way to water my lawn during a drought. Can you get me a lesson or two? Dear Seeker of Truth : By learning a few simple rules, you can pass the test for watering during a drought. Most lawns can survive an occasional drying out. The important thing is con- sistency. If you decide to water, water regularly. If you let the lawn go dor- mant, don't water. A little water now and then often is more harmful than no SCARBORO TELLY1SION WED. SEPT. M., A.

In a dry spell, water the lawn early in the morning so grass blades can dry before evening. Also, mow the grass a little higher than usual to shade the soil from the sun. Control weeds that are competing with your grass for the available water. A "golden rule" for watering your lawn anytime: water deeply but infrequently and only when the lawn really needs it. Dear John: My lawn has more craters than the moon. What can I do about this? Dear Lumpy Lawn: Besides being unsightly, holes in a lawn can cause problems when mowing. To prevent turning an ankle, fill any holes or ditches in your lawn with soil and sow new grass seeds. Dear John: What are some signs of insect and disease damage in my flower garden? Dear Disease Detector: Early signs of disease damage are spots or discoloration on flower stems and petals. Other signs of disease are mushy - textured leaves and a noticeable loss of foliage. Insect damage may first appear as curled or clewed leaves, either with obvious bites or tiny pinprick holes. You'll probably notice these trouble sighs before seeing the insects themselves. especially if the insects are very small or feed at night. If you spot the early signs of a disease, start by cut- ting off the affected parts of the plant. Use a fungicide to prevent the disease from spreading to SAT.

Wed. Sept. 23, 1287 THE NEWS ' POST Page 11 Great Gardening Conference In October the Civic Garden Centre is presen- ting its second Great Gardening Conference which will take place over an entire weekend and at- tract speakers from Canada, the United States and the United Kingdom. All are experts in their fields and many are authors of well-known books on gardening. Conference dates run from Oct. 17th to 19th and include two full-day ses- sions. healthy portions of the plant. At the start of an insect problem it's best to pick off large insects by hand. If the problem persists, pull out one or two badly in- fested plants. It's better to lose a couple of plants than risk infesting the entire garden. If all other measures fail, use an insec- ticide. Contact a county exten- sion agent for advice when selecting a fungicide or in- secticide r • Topics for discussion of- fer a wide variety and range from rock plants and rose -growing to colour and scent in the garden and plant hunting in China. The Great Gardening Conference has proved very popular in the past, at- tracting visitors from across the continent and of- fering a unique opportunity to meet fellow -gardeners internationally while benefiting from expert knowledge and advice. Pre -registration is re- quired. For further infor- mation contact the Civic Garden Centre at 445-1552. Brochures giving complete details are available and will be mailed out on re- quest.
