For Durham
Board
The Ministry of Educa-
tion has awarded $1,180,000
to fund 20 pilot projects
under the Access to
Employment Program for
Co-operative Education.
Education Minister Chris
Ward said that a project of
the Durham Board of
Education has been
selected and $70,000
allocated for it. The project
is aimed at keeping
students who are at risk of
dropping out of school in
school through co-
operative education pro-
grams and providing
students who have dropped
back into school with the
opportunity to take part in
co-op programs.
The funding ranges from
$50,000 to a maximum of
$75,000 per project and in
the case of partnership in-
itiatives from $20,000 to
$'75,000.
The pilot projects will
help encourage greater
participation by special
populations that have been
under -represented in co-
operative education pro-
grams and also lead to the
development of programs
that focus on the needs of
students at risk of dropping
out or who have returned to
school.

Q. I rad a historical novel recently that mentioned "Is-
inglass" windows. What exactly is isinglass? R.G.
A. Isinglass is the name for sheets of mica. Before glass
became commonly used, sheets of colorless mica wen used
as windows.
Mica is the name used for a whole family of rock forming
minerals. Micas can be split into thin sheets. They are soft
and can be scratched easily with a fingernail. They range
from colorless through shades of yellow, green, red, browr:
and black. Micas are part of a large group of Wwo s rocks
found in the earth's crust and today micas are mined in the
United States, Canada, India, Madagascar, and many other
countries.
Since micas make very good insulators, they are toed to-
day in the manufacture of electrical equipment such as
toasters, electric irons, and lamp sockets.
Q. What do ants eat? B.R.
A. Ants live all over the world except at the very tops of the
highest mountains so there are thousands of different kinds
of ants. How each of these ants lives and eats depends on

Resolutions
b_v Bob Watson '
Our New Year's Resolutions include -
1) Let's start paying off our national debt (over $200 billion)
(because the interest rate is very heavy and balance the
books by cutting costs and increasing income taxes.
2) Build up our armed forces with compulsory military ser-
vice for everyone (male de. female) 18 to 20 yrs of age. The
discipline, survival training and experience would benefit
us all and keep us ready for any emergency.
3) Let's privatize all crown corporations including Air
Canada and the CBC. They all could be profitable organiza-
tions with private enterprise management.
4) Let's resolve to keep our external affairs (attention Mr.
PM and Joe Clark) noses out of South Africa - and stop help-
ing the communists take over Africa! It sure hasn't helped
the Ethiopians or the Mozambique nation.
Mainstream Canada
Starting off
on the right foot
By Ann M. Smith
Let's begin 1968 on a posi-
tive note. It's nice to indulge
even once in a while in a good
dose of complaomo by putting
sonic space between ourselves
and all the day-to-day horrors
we see and tad about during
much of the calendar year.
So by concentrating on some
of the happier footnotes from
the previous 12 months. Cana-
dians may hopefully be able to
enter the upcormng yew with an
increased sense of optimism
and encouragement.
For starters, let's take a look
at the most recant uncrnploy-
ment figures. The number of
jobless workers in this country
has dropped to the lowest kvel
in a number of years and every
reasonable forecast indicates
that this very positive trend will
continue through to at least the
end of 1968. This isn't to say, of
course; that unemployment is
no longer a problem for many
regions of the country, but
Canadians can take at least
some comfort in the recent
downward spiral -
Aad interest rates are also
nicely under control. This is
something that is wielcomed
with a great sigh of relief by
man C radms—homeowners
and small business peoples for
example—w ho still wince from
the excruciating pain caused b%
the early 1980'% recession.
And another positive sign of
our healthy economy is the once,
defamed Canadian dollar.
%% hile many countries in the
international marketplace are
torted to watch their currencies
doing cartwheels around the
American dollar. Canada has
very quietly maintained its
straight -as -an -arrow course of
action. Japan, for example, is
desperately seeking solutions to
help stabilize the behavior of its
highly erratic yen and the
government in that country
would probably pay an awful
lot of money (for what it's
worth) for a chance to follow in
the path of our dollar.
And, of course, what
roundup of 19R' would be com-
pktc without at Ie." mention-
ing fm trade? %e've survived
the first few heated months of
debate and Canadians are
finally secing the outline of a
sanible and pragmatic debate
taking shape.
W ve also had reason to
cheer events on the imcma-
tional front. The images of
American president Ronald
Reagan and Soviet leader
Mikhail Gorbachev in a com-
mon spirit of goodwill we likely
to remain with us for many
years to conic. The ironer us -
Soviet missile agreement could
well be tetaeanbei as 1997's
Even the so-called stock
market aash in early October—
which came in with a bang—
has va itsbed with bandy a
whimper. Thc market survived
and is. in fact. higher than at
this time a yew ago when many
considered the brokerage busi-
ness to be in great shape. There
oras no repeat of 19_14—no(
nen close—and despite all the
fervor and attention, no stock
brokers opted to take the Big
Plunge.
But perhaps for many Cana-
dians the most exciting
moments of 1987 were spent
inches away from the television
set during the month of Sep-
tember. Ring a bell? If any
single event can polarize this
country, hockey, may well be it.
In case you've forgotten—
perish the thought Team
Canada beat the Soviets in what
was one of the greatest hockey
series of all time.
!vow there's something
worth talking about.
Happy New Year!

Bob Rae
by Bob Watson
We received a two page
letter late last week from
Bob Rae, Ontario Leader of
the Official Opposition and
also leader of the Ontario
New Democratic Party.
The letter in part said:
"I should be honoured if
you would include this
message in the upcoming
edition of your pubication."
It seems that while other
political folks place paid
advertisements to send
Season's Greetings to their
constituents or send
greeting cards, the leader
of our socialists wants
newspapers around the
province to give him this
space at no charge!
Perhaps as the NDP gets
most of its money from
compulsory donations of
funds from trade union
members, Mr. Rae is used
to getting money and
resources easily (com-
pared to the other political
parties) - but still doesn't
want to spend a nickel to

Helped By Lung Association
One of the many millions of Canadians who appreciate
what the Lung Association has done for them is a 93 year old
Taranto reran who says how all his adult life he has battled
the deadly effects of mustard gas from World War 1.
He stopped smoking, started deep breathing exercises
and, according to him the encouragement ragement from the people
at the Lung Association never stopped. Emphysema, which
developed some 30 years ago, slowed him down somewhat
(his wards) but not enough to prevent him attending the re-
cent reunion of his overseas battalion where be was one of
only six survivors.

for repairs to the breakwater at Bhiffers' Park Marina in
Scarborough. The contract award was announced by Reg
Stackhouise, MP Scarborough West, on behalf of the Hou.
Tam Siddon, Minister of Fisheries and Oceans.

mor layer on the breakwater. Construction is expected to
start shortly.
Strong Markets Forecast in 1988
Growth in the national economy and acceptable interest
rates are expected to continue to stimulate home buying ac-
tivity across the country in 1968, according to Canada's
leading realtor.
"We fed there will be little or no negative impact on
either the economy or residential real estate markets as a
result of the stock market correction in October." says Oz-
zie Juarock, Preskd Royal LePage Residential Real
Estate Services, "so there's every reason to expect a good
real estate market next year.'
Lions Clubs Annual Telethon
Metro Toronto lions Clubs have joined forces with Chan-
ad
hao-rid 47 Cable 4 to stage a Telethon for its favourite projects -
Canine Vision Canada, the training of guide dogs for visual-
ly impaired Canadians, and its many other community ser-
vice projects on Sat. Jan. 23rd from 6 p.m. to 2 a.m.
The L m s Foundation of Canada undertook the task of
developing a national guide dog training school in 1983. The
school, located in Oakville, is designed to eventually train
12() teams a year: One on one intensive training sessions
that last 30 days, teach both student and guide dog to in-
stinctively help each direct the other through busy intersec-
tions and hard -to -maneuver places.
Export Deal With Vermont
Ontario Hydro and the Vermont Department of Public
Service have reached agreement on a five year electricity
export deal.
Ontario Hydro will make available up to 73 megawatts of
firm power and energy. Vermont will arrange to transmit
the power from the Ontario border to the State of Vermont.
Under the terms of the contract, Vermont will have the op-
tion to increase this quantity by an additional 39
megawatts, for a maximum total of 112 megawatts. The
gross revenue over the term of the contract is estimated to
be near si6o million Canadian.
PCB Processing Unit Approved
The Ministry of Environment has granted Ontario Hydro
all necessary approvals for operation of its Mobile PCB
Processing Unit. the unit, housed in a tractor trailer,
removes low level PCBs from insulating oils.
The mobile processing unit was built by Enervac of Cam-
bridge, Ontario to Hydro's specifications and was delivered
to Hydro for testing in October, 1984. The chemical process
treats low-level PCBs in insulating oil used in transformers,
turning them into common salt and other harmless by-
products. The process allows the insulating oil to be reused
rather than destroyed. Use of the mobile unit to treat oil on
site reduces the need to transport contaminated oil.

Billion Mind Link
At noon Greenwich time
on Dec. 31, 1987, people in
more than 100 countries
paused for an hour in time
to participate in the second
annual World Healing Day
- which its organizers say
would be the most powerful
affirmation of peace and
goodwill in history.
While the media reported
worldwide participation of
up to 400 million for the
Dec. 31st, 1986 event, the
'87 goal is no less than one
billion.
The majority of in-
dividuals and organiza-
tions involved in this an-
nual activity are operating

demoninational, non-
political organization

structure, or fund-raising
activities.
The commission is simp-
ly a grass roots nwvement
launched by The Quartus
Foundation in Austin,
Texas as a way of uniting
people in a cooperative ef-
fort for responsible action,
peace, and world harmony.
According to Barbara
Douthitt, Commission
Coordinator at Quartus, the
purpose of the global mind -
link is to create greater
understanding and mutual
trust among people in all
nations.
"We want to
demonstrate that a suffi-
cient number of world
citizens can gather in a
common bond to demand
an end to hostilities,
hunger. poverty, and the
subjugation of individual
freedom," Douthitt said.
Quartus directors made
the first formal announce-
ment of the Commission on
Jan. 1, 1984, with the stated
objective of having 500
million people consenting
to peace on earth and the
healing of this world - with
a minimum of 50 million
joining in the mind -link at
the same hour in time.
Dec. 31, 1986 was
designated as the first
"World Healing Day" and
noon Greenwich was
selected as the hour in
order to encompass all
time zones during that 24
hour period.
Douthitt noted that the
goal of one billion
represents about twenty
percent of the global
population, "a task force
with an attitude of mind
that must be recognized by
world leaders.
Remember that it was
president Eisenhower who
said in 1959 that "people in
the long run are going to do
more to promote peace
than are governments. In-

Researchers study fish oil as
rheumatoid arthritis treatment
In experimental studies, physi-
cians are treating rheumatoid ar-
thritis with fish oil. They believe
that the same components of fish
oil thought to decrease the tisk of
heart disease, namely the omega-3
fatty acids, will help reduce the
pain, inflammation and stiffness
of the joints experienced by ar-
thritis sufferers.
In a recent interview, Toronto
physician Dr. Edward Keystone
said that three out of eleven of his
patients with severe rheumatoid
arthritis experienced noticeable
improvements when taking fish
oils. The patients daily, took 10
MaxEPA softgels (capsules) con-
taining the omega-3 fish oils,
along with other anti -rheumatic
New York physician Dr. Joel
Kremer has also studied the ef-
fects of adding MaxEPA softgels
to the treatment regimen for
rheumatoid arthritis. Twenty-
three patients reported fewer
tender joints and at least a two
hour delay in the onset of fatigue
after taking 15 MaxEPA softgels
daily for 14 weeks. In contrast, 21
patients taking a placebo capsule -
containing no fish oil had no
change in symptoms. Neither
group changed their diets in any
way.
Kremer's research indicates that
patients must take the softgels for
several weeks before noticing im-
provement and at no time does
the MaxEPA cause symptoms to
go away altogether. The beneficial
effects of the fish oil supplements
continue for some time after pa-
tients stop taking them.
Both Keystone and Kremer in-
sist patients continue with their
regular medication as well, since
research to date indicates that fish
oils are a useful adjunct to but not
a replacement therapy for rheu-
matoid arthritis.

Tricks to

intake
How much salt do you acid to your
food?
Try this test. Cover your meal with
foil and sprinkle on your usual
amount of salt.
Measure the salt you've added.
One-quarter of a teaspoon is about
500 mg of sodium. One to three
grams (1000 to 3000 ung) a day is
considered to be an adequate intake
for adults.
Salt. of course, is a popular sea-
soning. It's also an essential nutrient.
But a large number of health -cow
sciotrs consumers are starting to use
salt in moderation in a conscious
effort to make changes to their life-
style. To black up changes in eating

and giving up cigarettes.
Wihen you realize that vve our-
selves add 25 to 50 percent of the salt

levels are common. And it becomes
e%pecially to know jug
ht)w much vx are consuming.
Marty consumers don't read labels
carefully and may not be aware: of the
sodium content in popular everyday
foods such as ready -to -at dry and

A healthy alternative that allows

responsible for the characteristic
pain and inflammation of rheu-
matoid arthritis. When omega-3
fatty acids become incorporated
into these compounds, they cause
Less inflammation in the body.
With less inflammation there is
Less pain.
Omega-3 fatty acids may also
exert their effects through a
favorable alteration in the body's
immune system. Rheumatoid ar-
thritis is considered an auto -
Immune disease in which the body
mistakes some of its own cells for
foreign cells and produces anti-
bodies to attack them. Pro-
staglandins and leukotrienes are
involved in both inflammation
and the immune response. The in-
corporation of omega-3 fatty
acids into these compounds
makes them less able to mediate
either process.
Patients should not use cod
liver oil as a source of omega-3
fatty acids. Along with omega-3
fatty acids, cod liver oil contains

same amount of omega-3 fatty
acids contained in a six ounce
serving of fish you'd need to take
ten cod liver oil softgels. That
much cod liver oil would provide
dangerously high amounts of
Vitamin A and D if consumed
daily. Since the oil in MaxEPA
softgels is extracted from the
flesh, not the liver, of fish, there is
no danger of Vitamin A and D
poisioning from MaxEPA soft-
gels.
MaxEPA softgels are currently
available in Canada only to ap-
proved researchers and physi-
cians. Researchers haven't deter-
mined yet the optimal dosage and
duration of treatment with
MaxEPA. The amount of fish oil
consumed by Kremer's patients is
equivalent to about one large serv-
ing of cold water fish daily, mak-
ing it equally possible to derive the
(benefits of fish oils from
carefully -chosen foods.

WANT TO APPEAL
YOUR ASSESSMENT?
You still have time to appeal your 1987 assessment if you
feel your home or business property has been improperly
assessed. Your assessment is important because the
amount of property tax you will pay in 1988 depends on it.
The assessed value of your property is multiplied by the
municipal and school mdI rates to determine your prop-
erty taxes.
Notices of Property Valuation were mailed to property
owners and tenants whose assessments have changed
since last year. Open house information sessions were
heli in your area to give you the opportunity to ask ques-
tions and correct any errors.
The Assessment Roll was delivered to your municipality
-on December 22, 1987 and will be used to calculate the
taxes you will pay in 1988. You can review the Roll at your
municipal office during regular business hours. If you
believe your property has been improperly assessed and
you have not yet registered an appeal, you still have until
January 12, 1988 to mail or deliver your appeal to the
Assessment Review Board. And remember, even if you
did not receive a Notice of Property Valuation, you still
have the right to appeal.
Appeal deadline — January 12,1988
The Assessment Review Board is an independent tri-
bunal under the jurisdiction of the Ontario Ministry of the
Attorney General. It is intended to provide you with an
additional opportunity to have your assessment reviewed
if, in your opinion, it is not fair and equitable with the
assessment of similar properties in your area. The Review
Board is more informal and relaxed than a regular court
of law. You may present your own case, retain a lawyer, or
ask a relative or friend to speak as your agent.
To help you in filing your appeal, Notice of Appeal forms
are available from the Assessment Review Board, your
Regional Assessment Office, or your municipal office.
You can also use the reverse side of a Notice of Property
Valuation, or write a letter giving the property address and
roll number along with your reasons for appealing.
Appeals should be forwarded to the Regional Registrar of
the Assessment Review Board at the address shown
below.
In those parts of Ontario designated for French Lan-
guage Services, you can appear before a bilingual (Eng-
lish/French)
English/French) Appeal Board. Please check the space
provided on your appeal form if you wish to use this
service.

The Matter
to foods. Fat suppiies nine
calories while a
gram of�carbohydrate oc
protein gives only four
glories. Although there
are many different kinds of
fat and some are thought to
be better than others, we
need to lower the total
amount of fat that we eat.
Fat in foods includes visi-
ble fats and oils such as
butter, margarine, mayon-
naise, salad oil and the fat
you trim from meat or
remove when you skin a
chicken.
It also refers to the
substances that you do not
readily think of as fat, such
as the white streaks that
marble a steak. Nuts,
cheeses, avocados,
pastries and many conve-
nience foods also contain
bidden fats. A whole
avocado contains the
equivalent of eight pats of
butter!
With all the bad things
you bear about fat. it may
surprise you that some fat
in the diet is necessary. All
body tissues contain fat. It
is an essential part of all
cell membranes and helps
maintain healthy skin.
Fat deposits have
several important func-
tions: they serve as
reserves of energy for
times wihea the body needs
it; they protect vital
organs; and they maintain
body temperature.
Fat can be a source of
essential nutrients such as
llnoielc acid and the fat
soluble vitamins A. D, E
and K. Fat adds flavour to
food and makes it more
pleasurable to the palate.
While some fat is required,
most people include too
much in their diet.
Here are some low fat
diary product substitutions
you can make: use low fat
yogurt (2% BF or less) in-
stead of sour cream for
baked potato topping, dips,
desserts, baked goods; use
mills, skim or non-fat milk
instead of whole milk for
beverages, soups,
desserts; use non-fat dry
milk or evaporated skim
milk instead of cream,
half n half or whole milk
for coffee, tea; use low fat
cottage cheese (2% or less)
instead of ricotta or feta
cheese for pasta, salads,
dip; use ricotta cheese
(10% or less) instead of
cream cheese for spreads,
dips, cheese cake; use ice
milk or frozen yogurt in-
stead of ice cream for
dessert and snacks; use
processed skim milk
cheese slices instead of
regular processed cheese
slices for sandwiches,
salads, topping on burger.
Every Bite Counts
Changing food habits is
hard work. If you want to
cut down on fats you will
need to make more than
just a few temporary
changes. " "

Report
from Norah Stoner
MPP Durham West
For many of els the start of a new year means reflecting
on the events of the previous 12 months and looking to the
future.
1987 was a very significant year for me and my family.
Winning the September 10th Provincial Election in Durham
West was a major highlight and I appreciate very much the
confidence voters have shown in me.
The new year will bring numerous developments of note
at the provincial level.
On Jan. 1st, for example, the Pay Equity Act of Ontario
will come into effect. The Province's legislation on
Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy is to be
implemented that day as well.
Among other things, the Government intends to introduce
legislative changes in the new year to allow municipalities
to regulate Sunday store openings. And beginning in
January the Legislature's Standing Committee on Ad-
ministration of Justice will hear submissions on Bill 2, an
Act to establish the Ontario Automobile Insurance Board
and provide for the Review of Automobile Instu•ance Rates.
In terms of the economy in Ontario, an upbeat forecast
has been issued by the Province. Trfts mer Bob Nixon
recently stated the rate of economic growth projected for
next year is very healthy.
According to the Government's Economic Outlook the
Ontario economy will grow by 2.8 percent, in real terms, m
1988. Inflation is forecast to decline to 4.7 percent from the
5.1 percent projected for this year. The outlook also ells for

more than 100,000 new jobs to be created in 1968. It says the
unemployment rate in Ontario will decline to 5.8 percent,
which would be the lowest rate since 1974.

help make 1968 a very positive year. I would like to take this
opportunity to wish you and yours a Happy and Healthy
New Year.
NORAH'S NOTES:
Congratulations to Mrs. Monica Cook of Pickering, a reci-
pient of the Ministry of Tourism and Recreation's Corps
d'Efite Ontario award, which recognizes accomplishments
in the area of recreation. Mrs. Cook has worked in the com-
munity with the Girl Guides and a disabled children's
swimming program for a total of 44 years. The award was
presented during the Olympic Torch Relay ceremonies held
Dec. 21st to be on hand for the torch ceremonies in both
Pickering and Ajax that evening.
The Town of Ajax has received approval from the
Tourism and Recreation Ministry for a $15,000 grant. The
grant will be used to pay half the cost of a feasibility study
to determine the town's recreational needs.
The Town of Pickering is eligible for a provincial grant
for the proposed construction of an extension of the
municipal watermain to the community of Cherrywood
West. The decision on eligibility for the grant, which is
estimated at 85 percent of the total eligible cost of the pro-
ject, is based on preliminary information available. The
Ministry of the Environment will be able to consider the
commitment of funding once preparatory work and cost
estimates are completed.
Youngsters need
a good breakfast
The hockey season is here.
All across the country, young -
ate" are turning out in the
predawn cold for hockey prac-
tice. Many of them arrive
without breakfast. Thev can't

they haven't eaten since the

and minerals from juice or

these nutrients from food than

The young athletes don't
have to eat all this before
heading to the rink. It's often
best to divide breakfast into

meals. They could have bot

tra calories instead, to make
up for the energy spent in
sports or heavy labor.

Facts About Fibre
Fibre seems to have been
,,rediscovered". Its value in
helping prevent constipation
has been accepted for years,
but now some people credit it
with curing medical problems
like cancer of the colon and
heart disease. These claims are
not really substantiated, say
food and nutrition specialists
with the Ontario Ministry of
Agriculture and Food.
Firstly. although there's just
one "generic" name for fibre
there are several different
types of this indigestible plant
material. Each one works in a
different way in the body. For
example certain kinds appear
to lower blood cholesterol,
others seem to have no effect
and some actually increase it.
Secondly, while some of the
research has been promising.
the still incomplete results
have been blown up out of pro-
portion, creating a number of
incorrect impressions about
this complex plant carbohy-
drate. As a result, many peo-
ple have gv one e in non -prescribed
high fibre diet, or are taking
fibre pills. Thee aren't nees-
sary and could possibly lie
harmful.
W ith all the highly- proceseied
foods available today, most
people would benefit from
more roughage in their meals
but there's no treed to go over-
board. The easiest, healthiest
and safest way to improve the
situation is to simply increase
the amount of unrefuued, whole
foods eaten. For example:
• (:hoose 100 per cent whole
wheat or cracked wheat
bread instead of white.
• Have cooked -at-home,
whole grain cereals or cold
bran cereals for breakfast
rather than highly -processed
ones.
• Include seeds and nuts in
meals and snacks.
• Add bran to muffins, quick
breads, pancakes, and cas-
.erule toppings.
• 1: se dried peas, beans and
lentils in casseroles, soups,
and dips.
