Mrs. P.F.A. Albee was hind as the fust representative of the fledgling Avon Products in the late 1880's. At that time the company was known as the California Perfume Company and Mrs. Albee and others like her went out to their neighbours' horses with a set of four perfumes called "Little Dot" in hand. Avon had been established in 1886 by D.H. McConnell with a total staff of two people operating first from the Mc- Connell home and then from a tiny office on Chambers Street in New York City. From the first the direct marketing method of cosmetics being sold by one housewife to another in the privacy of the home was a success and the California Perfume Company prospered. A variety of products were added over the years and in 1936 Mr. McConnell personally chose the name ..Avon" to encompass all the products the company handl- ed because of his love for William Shakespeare, whose home was in Stratford -on -Avon. Today Avon products are still sold exclusively by the direct marketing method by over 125,000 independent sales representatives, making Avon one of the world's greatest house-to-house sales organizations. Q. How is Scotch tape put on the roll so evenly? R.S. A. In the same way that a newspaper is nut through a press, sheets of polyester film several feet wide are run through a machine where they are coated with adhesive. From there the film is fed on to a long rolling plastic or cardboard tube, which is also several feet wide. The wide roll of tape is next fed into a slitting machine which slices thorough both the tape and the tube into the familiar size rolls. k O m- 10. 0{ T 1.7t�fc'm �rui V 1 aV/� . �7FLrnrhfre For custom crafted quality at very affordable prices.

Durham Board Of Education Hiahughts Transportation Polity Changes In order to resolve ine- quities in the board's cur- rent transportation policy, revisions to the policy have been drafted and will be sent out on the consultative process. In brief, the revi- sions call for providing transportation for all elementary students living more than 1.6 km from their designated school, and for all secondary students living more than 3.2 km from their designated school. Both regular and French Immersion students will have access to transporta- tion, however students at- tending -lighthouse con - on's r PR1�i1�G 4%D z sept" schools will be responsible for their own transportation. As in the past, exceptions to the policy may be made for some Special Education students, Grove School - Treatment Centre students, students with medical certificates and students requiring transportation for reasons of safety. Communicable Diseases Policy Trustees approved the recommended policy on communicable diseases be circulated through the con- sultative prod.

P.A.C.T. also took core samples in an area that was finally covered and produced readings that rihowed a final cove of eight inches to 96 inches. The agreement also states that no hazardous material shall be dumped at the Brock West IAndfill Site, and P.A.C.T. observ- ed readings of 34 to 97 microrems per hour with a radiation metre.

Martino Funeral Home Limited 4115 Lawrence Ave. E. 281 8800 just west of Kingston Rd. Page 2 THE NEWSIPOST Wed. Mar. 38, IM Opinion a page for expression for you and us Streamlining Traffic b_v Bob Watson Have you ever driven down a main street in this metropolitan area and found that you are being stopped at almost every traffic light? Well, we understand that micro chips can be placed at in- tersections to make lights react better than usual. It baffles us why streets such as McCowan Road can't have a smooth flow of traffic. If doing the speed limit gave a motorist a smooth ride without stopping, wouldn't that encourage drivers to drive at 60 kmh instead of doing spurts of 70 or 8D and then dead stop? We believe that traffic which proceeds south, for exam- ple, on McCowan Road from Finch Ave. E. shouldn't have to stop every single time at Huntingwood Dr. The side streets can have any kind of frequency of car movement and it is not noticeable. But the main roads need to be open and easy to drivers. It will all mean better driving and more safety. And speaking about traffic, the installation of traffic lights at the corner of Sheppard Ave. E. and Scunthorpe Dr. just one block west of Markham Rd. was a big mistake. Now, besides the SWAM installation cost, we have traffic being held up on a main street for most of the day while pedestrians only need this crossing to catch a bus at rush hours. Surely it would have been cheaper to have a button system for pedestrians or even a crossing guard. Just so Pedestrians don't have to walk one block to catch a bus. we are making thousands of cars stop and use up expensive gasoline and valuable time for business people. It doesn't make sense' Sack Politicians Dear Sir We won't solve traffic problems until politicians are sack- ed- These stallers. catering to TTC have heads buried in sand and are too braid. I. We need Spadina completed. 2. We need 400 completed along the CPR line to the Gar- diner. 3. Stop putting up more traffic signals stop signs and cross walks to please pressure groups. Consider the good of the whole. We won't leave cars at home to satisfy fully brained politicians. Until these changes are made, I hope Toronto Strangles.

The Persons Case As incredible as it seems legally women were not persons until 1929. At the turn of the century women could not yet vote nor could they buy a homestead of their own. Prior to the Alberta Dower Act of 1911, a woman might bear a large family and work from dawn to dusk in developing her hus- band's property but receive no inheritance upon his death or desertion. Then in 1916 a spirited Alberta woman, Emily Murphy, was appointed the fust magistrate of the Women's Court in Edmonton. On her first day in cart Judge Murphy's authority was challenged on the grounds that she was not a person. The defence lawyer, who challenged her, based his case on English common law which stated that: "Women are persons in matters of pains and penalties, but are not persons in matters of rights and privileges." This oppressive taunt was overruled by the Supreme Coat of Alberta on the grounds of "reason and good sense". This was a small victory for Canadian worsen, but a bigger battle was on the horizon - the right to be appointed to the Senate. Once again. the interpretation of the word "persons" was to be a crucial factor. Because section 24 of the British North America Act stated that "the Governor General shall .. summon qualified persons to the Senate". women wee being excluded from appointment to that Clamber. In 1927, Emily Murphy decided to exercise a little known right which permitted any rive Canadians to ask the Supreme Cart of Canada for a legal reinterpretation. In this case. they would ask that the word ''persons" in the British North America Act include women. Four women joined Emily Murphy to sign the petition. They were all from Alberta; all were well known and all were respected throughout Canada for their work in na- tional organizations and political life. They were Nellie Mc- Clung. Louise McKinney, Irene Pariby and Henrietta Muir Edwards. !vine months later, in April 1928. the Supreme Corn ruled against "the famous five", shattering their hopes that women could be called to the Senate of Canada. But the five resolved to take their case to the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council in London. England, which was at that time the final court of appeal for Canadians. On Oct. 18, 1929. after far days of deliberations, the deci- sion of the Supreme Court of Canada was overturned Cana- dian women were indeed declared persons and thus became eligible to be appointed to the Senate. THE PERSONS AWARDS like much of our history, the Persons Case was forgotten u nW 1979. To mark the 50th anniversary of the historic Per- sons decision, the federal government instituted the Person Awards. These awards have been given annually since then to recognize outstanding contributions towards improving the status of women in Canada. Recently. on Oct. 21. 1987, five women were honoured with the award during a ceremony which was held in the Senate Chamber They were: Margaret Catherine Harris, of Saskatoon Saskatchewan; Jacqueline Iaprise-Demers, of St.-Fdlicien, Quebec; Frances Laracy. of Conception Harbour, Newfoundland; Kay Macpherson, of Toronto, On- tario: and Df. Norma E. Walmsley, of Wakefield, Quebec. THE NOMINATION PROCESS Nominations for the awards are submitted every year by individuals, women's groups and status of women commit- tees within various organizations across Canada. They are reviewed by a non-partisan selection committee which makes a recommendation to the Minister Responsible for the Status of Women. Criteria and nomination forms for the 1988 Person Awards can be obtained by writing to the Honourable Bar- bara McDougall, Minister Responsible for the Status of Women, 151 Sparks Street, Ottawa, Ontario, KiA 1C3. The deadline for submitting nominations is Apr. 15, 1988.

Northwest Territories in the North - Report From Parliament from Reg Stackhouse, MP Scarborough West Status of Ws Ince Including occupations such as teaching medicine and law. over half the jobs created for women between 1984 and 1987 were of a managerial, administrative or professional nature. As well, the number of women in judiciary has risen from 31 to 58. In the current Padiament, there are a record 29 women MP's or 10% of the total. There are 19 Progressive Conser- vative women MP's, five of whom are in the Cabinet_ Women now account for more than half the undergraduate degrees granted by Canadian universities. Women now make up 43 percent of the labour fore. The increased number of working worsen has moved the average percent of women in the labour force in 1987 to 56 percent, compared to 45 percent in 1976 and 35 percent in 1966. There were two million warren in the labour force with children under age 16. This includes 927 thousand with pre- school aged children. Lack of adequate child care services is a major obstacle to women's equality in the labour market. The Mulroney Government has embarked on discussions with the provinces to establish a national child care strategy. The goals are to double the number of care spaces to approximately 400 thousand, provide tax assistance to families with young children, and set up a special fund to finance research and development of child care. r.-----------------------------------------.

For the past two years, Cuthill has worked tireless- ly to see North York business represented on an equal footing with other cities such as Edmonton, Calgary, Hamilton, Orilla, Mississauga, and Scar- borough. car- b '.North York is Canada's sixth largest city. We have upwards of 17,000 com- Hies doing business in York and we don't have a professional organization to represent our exclusive interests on a day to day basis. Edmon- ton has 16 staff and Calgary 29 people. All we have is what equates to an answer- ing service in a volunteer business association," said Cuthill. Cuthill went on to point out that there are several small business organiza- tions, such as the North York Business Association to which he belongs with just 350 members. He noted that none has the financial or staff resources or a broad enough box to effec- tively represent the in- creasingly complex cultural and economic diversity of the North York business community. A member of C uthill's committee pointed out that "the hisineas climate is too competitive these days to play ms's game by yesterday's rules. North York is simply too big a ci- ty and Metro itself too large to be comprehensive- ly serviced by a single organization such as the Metropolitan Toronto Board of Trade. Scar- borough has already form- ed its own chamber of com- merce. It's about time North York got ib act ... Bryan Cuthill went on to say that, "Generally WeakiM the Metropolitan Toronto Board of Trade does a fine job, but we do need to evolve a new work- ing relationship. Let's hope they'll stand aside as they did in Scarborough and let North York business people decide the issue for themselves. It certainly would be unfortunate for everyone if they tried to obstruct a charter applica- tion or appeared to in- terfere by favouring one business group over another.

John Press, vice-president, operations, explains that the theory of "Ageless Wellness" is in keeping with the goals and objectives. of lifestyle Retirement Communities. Our residents take respon- sibility for their own lives while we provide the facilities and services that enable them to do so," he said. "Ageless Wellness has two basic principles — the preven- tion of illness and the promo- tion of wellness," Press elaborated. At Lifestyle Retire- ment communities, we will be enforcing these principles with innovative and exciting options and top-notch nutri- tional meal plans and exercise programs. A renowned expert on ag- ing, Dr. Joel Elkes, is a member of Lifestyle Retire- ment Communities' Advisory Board and has been involved in developing programs for the company. He is a member of president's Committee on Aging and has researched Lifestyle Retirement Com- munities' emphasis on mental well-being begins with one of it's trademarks — the provi- sion of more space and choice in living accommodations. A variety of units, complete with kitchenettes and ample closet space, are offered ranging from studio apartments to two-bedroom units. "Making a move into a retirement residence is often a highly emotional experience," Press said. "We want to make this experience a positive one," he added. "By providing more space than existing Canadian facilities do, we pro- vide the opportunity for in- dependent lifestyles. Our residents can not only bring many of their cherished fur- nishings and possessions with them, but they can entertain friends and family comfor- tably in their own home. A unique recreational pro- Frm is also part of the style's concept. A first-ever in retirement residences, a specialized computerrogram matches resident profiles with both inhouse and external ac- tivities and programs. "This program is an exciting option for residents. Situated gives residents the opportuni- ty to plan their own social ac- tmtnes. "Our residents are mobile, independent, active and quite capable of leading well balanc- ed and fulfilling lifestyles. At Lifestyle Retirement Com- munities, we do not make the mistake of equating old age with illness, but recognize that senior citizens have a lot to of- fer life," Press said. "Our ser- vices simply set the stage for our residents, while they determine their own lifestyles." While many of Lifestyle's programs are designed to pro- mote self-worth and mental well-being, physical well- being is not ignored. It has been found that many symp- toms attributed to old age are often just a result of poor nutrition. Lifgestyle's full- service dining rooms offer three meals a day, which give residents optimum nutritional impact and healthy eating habits. An exercise studio is also onsite. Guidance in setting up personalized exercise pro- grams is available to residents, as well as organized classes. 'We are doing our best to ac- commodate all of our residents' needs and desires. Aging is a normal phase of life and in keeping with the Ageless Wellness Philosophy, we recognize this," Press said. Our operations are designed to help our residents move closer to a positive sense of well-being and a celebration of life." FOR MORE NFORMATION Donway Place 8 The Donway East 445-7555 Toronto/Don Mills Page i THE NEWS/ POST Wed. Mar. 36, iM Bill Watt's Worlds THEATRE NEWS At a recent reception held in Toronto City Hall's Members Lounge, one of the worst kept secrets of the local theatre scene was formally announced. Toronto Free Theatre and CentreStage Company have formally and official- ly amalgamated and will now be known as The Cana- dian Stage Company. CSC is now the major non-commercial theatre company in Toronto and, we rather suspect, the en- tire Oneis not too sure what Is meant by non- commercial theatre. As far as we can determine, it mesas a commitment to artistic excellence at any cost. Fair enough, but one is wise to recall the words of the CEO of the Jaguar Corporation when asked to compare the Jaguar automobile with a Rolls Royce. He commented that "it is not difficult to build the finest .. if money is no object", a direct reference to the subsidies lavished upon the latter company by the British government. Anyway, the productions of the new company will be presented at 26 Berkeley St. ( the former Toronto Free) and the Blumal Ap- pel Theatre of the St. Lawrence Centre. There are to be a whole hast of other activities including the popular ffigh Park summer series and we will be commenting upon them on a continuing basis.

The star - as much as there can be one in Kabuki - will be the now almost legendary in his own right, Senjaku Nakamura. Each performance will last about two hours - much less than most Kabuki per- formances but it is impor- tant to know that the pro- duction to be seen at The O'Keefe is not a scaled down one but rather one of the shorter works. For the benefit of those who do not understand or speak Japanese, The O'Keefe, through the magic of its infra -sound system, will be offering a running narrative and commentary upon the ac- tion on stage, in English. The rental cost of the ear- phones will be nominal. More details later but for now we can only urge all to arrange tickets early. This should be a big one. In the mail we received a beautifully worded message from Cineplex Odeon to the effect that it and Famous Players have made a corporate peace. The Imperial Theatre bitberto now owned jointly by Cineplex Odeon and Famous Players will be operated as a legitimate tbeatre under the sole ownership of Cineplex Odeon. As yet, we haven't heard what the opening attraction will be but have an idea it'll be Elle And My Girl, the West End and Broadway smash bit that has repopularized The Lambeth Walk. Cineplex Odeon have the Canadian rights to it. What ever the attraction there's surely going to be a memorable opening night. One wonders aloud if the theatre will revert to its original name, The Pan- tages ON STAGE: The opening attraction of the new Canadian Stage Company at the Biuma Ap- pel Theatre is B-11ovie, The Play, an encore presentation of an earlier wildly successful engage- ment. We missed it the first time around; having seen it now, we wonder what all the excitement was and is about. The play is good - make no mistake about that - and brilliantly executed in technical terms but yet . . Well, let's attempt to tell what it's about. Art Mrdell acted by the play's author Tom Wood is a B -Movie nut. With his friend Stan (Stephen Ouimette) he is attempting to make a modern version of Oedipus Rex in their apartment above a Chinese grocery. He is so immersed in the world of B -Movies that his mind wanders back and forth between reality and the silver screen. Aiding and abetting in the resultant mayhem are Stan's dumpy sister (Cor- rine Koslo). a soap opera actress with a pair of legs that go on for ever (gorgeous Donna Brooks) and a male exotic dancer named Dick Paulkichuk (David Elliott). Director Bob Baker keeps things moving at a manic puce and his direc- tion is sure and sound. An excellent sound track by Michael Becker and the first rate set by Stancil Campbell all help things along - So, all the ingredients are there for an excellent com- edy including faultless per- formances by the cast .. as directed So, why isn't the work as good as it should be'. We suggest that it's because the approach to it is wrong. Mr. Wood has ob- viously modelled himself after Woody Atkm one wishes he had adopted Mr. Allen's modus operandi. B -Movie calls for understatement; it should not be performed as farce, even B -movie farce. Those of us who recall B -movies remember that there were very few successful com- edies. The play is at its best when regurgitating the clich6d dialogue of more or less fond memory. Even the appearance of Godzilla - no fooling - evokes wonder at the technical marvel rather than laughter. We would not for the world suggest one avoid B -Movie, The Play; it's too good for that. It could, however, be so much bet- ter. IN PRINT: Mr. Wood is, like so many others, under the im- pression that the B in B -movies meant Bad. It ain't necessarily so. The B stood for Budget and as a euphimism for the lesser half of a double bill. If you want a better ex- planation of B -movies and some great reviews of them, we commend B Movies by Don Miller ( Ballantine Films). Originally published in 1173, this is its fust ap- pearance in paperback. Movie buffs have long found it an invaluable work.

It is true that it is like a spiral staircase and never comes back to the same level. His suggestion is to be open minded always. His reputation is to bring the best looks out in you. Mario says that one of the complaints that he often gets is that the professional team remains silent at times. Mario assures clients that it is the best way because it is very difficult to be attentive to your hair needs and talk all at the same time. It is your hair that is in our hands and we want to make sure we do the very best at all times. At professional development meetings, Mario says that they concentrate on how to improve techniques. Then they share as a team with their clients. This, we find, never gets us tired of the same hairstyling because he feels that they are always learning new ones. Since 1964 Port of Beauty has made a lot of clients happy. Their formula is that they listen to their clients' needs, Mario and his professional team say. is THE NEWS/POST Wed.

Ordinarily, the an- nouncement of new sitcoms wouldn't elicit any interest in this quarter. There is, however, one that has caught our eye because of the performers. Coming Of Age stars Paul Dooley and Phyllis Newman as a newly retired couple in one of those blighted retirement communities. Their new neighbours are Alan Young and Glynis Johns. Now, there's a cast! GRAPHIC ARTS: The Brownstone Hotel .has launched a series of ex- hibits by Canadian artists in its restaurant and piano bar. The first artist to be presented is Telford Fen- ton and the ctare& exhibi- tion includes portraits as well as landscapes and still life. He is a powerful painter working mostly in oil on canvas with palette knife. We particularly enjoyed Gino's Flowers as well as a stunning portrait of Tony )Bennett. There are three paintings of Marilyn Monroe and they are noteworthy but not among Mr. Flenton's best. It seems to us that he has caught the intended spirit of the sub. ject but realism has escaped him. Still. it's an ezcelknt ex - Won and well worth one's custom.

Don't Drink & Drive Speaking To You Scott Fennel M.P. Ontario Riding I received a letter from the Honourable George Hees, the Minister of Veteran Affairs, requesting my assistance in trying to identify my constituents who may be eligible for the Veterans Indeperdience Program. This program has ex- panded and some of you may now be eligible for this pro- grain- The ro- grain.The Veterans Independence Program ( VIP) is designed to encourage and assist eligible veterans to remain in- dependent and healthy in their own homes and com- munities. The Department of Veterans Affairs (DVA) will provide funds to reimburse eligible veterans for services such as home nursing care, housekeeping, grarndskeeping, home adaptations for the handicapped, specialized health care through out-patient centres, and long term institu- tional care in the veteran's community. The Veterans Independence program has been phased in gradually since its introduction in 1981, to include specific veteran groups such as war service disability pensioners ( if the service needed is related to their war disability), and War Veterans Allowance recipients. On January 1, 1968, the last scheduled phase-in took place. On that date veterans who are prevented from receiving War Veterans Allowance because of income received under the Old Age Security Act or similar age-related legislation of another country, became eligible for Veterans Independence Program benefits. Unfortunately, many of these veterans have had no previous contact with DVA, and although the Depart- ment is aware of some 60,000 veterans in this category, many are unknown to them. The Minister advises the best way for a veteran to con- firm his or her eligibility is to sit down with a DVA Counsellor. Interested veterans should contact their local DVA District Office for further information and to deter- mine whether or not they are eligible. I am pleased that the Department of Veterans Affairs is now able to serve an even greater segment of the veteran population. It is my hope veterans will take advantage of this program. Queen's Park Report from Norah Stoner MPP Durham West Ontario I.abour Minister Gregory Sorbara has endorsed a new long term medical strategy for rehabilitation of in- jured workers, recently developed by the Workers' Com- pensation Board. As envisaged by the Government in its most recent Speech from the Throne, the proposal outlines a three level model which. eiizure b prompt, efficient high quality medical rehabilitation, available at the community level. 'It is essential that injured workers be allowed to remain as close as possible to their homes and families during treatment," Mr. Sorbara said. The new strategy calls for the establishment of a medical rehabilitation institute, a number of regional rehabilitation centes, and a network of community rehabilitation clinics across the Province. Under the proposal, the first level of care would be car- ried out by community based rehabilitation clinics. The se- cond tier, to be operated through regional centres, would serve workers needing prolonged recovery. It would also provide comprehensive evaluation of workers' health and rehabilitation needs. The third level would research work-related injuries and rehabilitation problems, develop quality control programs and train rehabilitation specialists. Under the strategy this tier would operate out of a medical rehabilitation centre associated with a major university. ' "Ibe objective d all o(us is to cr'e'ate a system of medical rehabilitation for injured workers that is sensitive, humane, rational and efficient. The proposals which the WCB now intends to pursue are clearly designed to led toward such a system, " Ter. Sorbara said. If approved, the new system is expected to be operational within three to five years. NORAH'S NOTES: The Metro Toronto and Region Conservation Authority will be receiving $7.399.386.00 in provincial funding in 1985. Natural Resources Minister Vuhcent Kerrio recently an- nounced the province will provide a total of $42.4 million for the 38 conservation authorities across Ontario to undertake various water inanagenmilt, conservation and recreation projects - In a news release Mr. Kerrio noted to the level of grants, which will be used for capital projects as well as general administration, are fully in line with adjustments to the 88 funding keels for all agencies rvi eiving transfer payments from the Province. The MTRCA oversees watersheds and conservation lands in the communities of Ajax and Pickering. I was pleased to announce, on behalf of Ontario Tourism and Recreation Minister Hugh O'Neil, that the Ajax Spar- tans bfi Baseball Association is receiving a Wintano Development Grant of $5,251. The money will be used to purchase baseball equipment and safety bases to help the Association adnem its goal of boosting participation.
