Q. With so many stores using machine readable bar codes
these days, couldn't someone change the price of an item
with a Magic Marker? How would the store know whether
the price was correct? S.D.
A. Fortunately for retailers, the Universal Product Cede
symbols have a security device built into them The UPC
scanner can detect any alteration of a symbol by the "check
digit" symbol encoded in the two extra bars at the and of
the UPC symbol.
The bar code consists of two bars, reading from left to
rigbt, which are punctuation to let the scanner know where
to start reading. The same is true for the two bars in the
center which extend below the others and the two bars on
the right. The next five bars encode the number system
character and manufacturer and the second set specify the
product and size. These are encoded in special patterns of
narrow and wide spaces and bars which the machine reads
as numbers. The UPC scanner uses a special formula to
manipulate certain bars on the code mathematically to ob-
tain a single digit answer which must match the "check
digit" symbol Changing any single digit of the code will re-
quire a different check digit. The best a person who wished
to alter a price could do would be to change a code random-
ly. Pehaps it would alter the price to that of a cheaper item,
perhaps it would raise the price, but in either case the check
digit would fail to agree and the alteration would be caught.
Q. The sea story my daughter was reading for her book
report referred to a "spit of land". What does this term
mean? A.H.
A. A spit is a narrow, seaward projection of sediment
deposited by longshore currents. Spits occupy various posi-
tions with respect to the shore. Some curve back towards
the shore and are often called hooks. The Hook of Holland or
Sandy Hook in the mouth of New York Harbor are some ex-
amples. The most interesting kind of spit is the tombolo
which connects an island to the mainland. The Rock of
Gibraltar is joined in this fashion to Spain.

Why Easter Monday?
by Bob Watson
This past Monday has been the usual Easter Monday - the
business community hanging out in limbo because schools.
civic servants of all levels and the post office are off work.
The banks are open because they can't have four days in a
row, but there doesn't seem to be any common sense about
this holiday(").
Let us look back at why we have such a holiday. Does
anyone remember why there is an Easter Monday' Well.
we have Good Friday because this is a Christian holiday to
celebrate the crucifixion of Jesus Christ on the cross. Then
on the third day he arose from the dead and his resurrection
is another big moment in the Christian religion. However.
that third day is Easter Monday - but all churches that we
know about celebrate the resurrection on Easter Sundav
making the Monday holiday insignificant from a religious
point of view.
So we have a holiday with no purpose - not even for a few -
and it is celebrated as a pure holiday by civil servants, the
post office and schools as if it had some meaning. At the
very least we could call it "Government Paid Employee
Day Off" or some such name!
If the business of this country is going to function so that
we can all participate in the wealth which our industries are
creating, it seems essential to us to have this holiday
abolished and everyone at work so that millions of dollars of
waste effort do not go down the drain even year at this day.
�
In a world which is evolving away frn western civiliza-
tion to the east for efficiency of production, we believe we
must analyze these factors and corse to grips with the
realism of the world today.

Metro Board Of Trade Briefs
Response to Donner Task
Force on Haws d Work
and overtime.
The Board of Trade re-
jects the proposals of the
Ontario Task Force on
Hours of work and Over-
time, daawed by Arthur
Danner.
The board believes there
is no justification to reduce
the hours of work, as
recommended by the Tisk
Force, and feels it is inap-
propriate to equate com-
munity standards with
employment standards,
which are minimurn re -
The board is concerned
about the adverse impact
of the proposals on the
"Continental Shift" (a
special around-the-clock
schedule) and small
bssir>as, as well as the new
problems that may be
created in reaction to the
proposals by employers,
who want to maintain flex-
ibility.
Comment on the Museum
of Toronto Study - Final
Report.
In response to the Toron-
to Historical Board's
Museum of Toronto study,
the Board of Trade said a
location must first be
secured to maximize sup-
port and create an identity
for the museum.
The board believes the
museum should have a
Metro, not merely a City of
Toronto, orientation: that
it be governed by a board of
directors of varied in-
terests; that a detailed
financial plan and fun-
draising strategy be
developed; and, that ex-
pert museum staff help
organize and exhibit cor-
porate collections.
Support for Finck Avenue
Extension.
The Board of Trade is
strongly in favour of con-
structing the Finch Ave.
Extension between North
York and Etobicoke,
because it would
significantly improve traf-
fic flow in northwest Metro.
The board believes this
missing link should be com-
pleted as quickly as possi-
ble.
This position was also
sent to the Chairman and
Members of Metro Toron-
to's Transportation Com-
mittee and presented to the
Environmental Assess-
ment Board at a hearing.
Comment an Traosporta-
tim of Dangerous Goods.
In commenting on the
transportation of
dangerous goods within
Metro, the Board of Trade
believes there should be no
unnecessary restrictions
an the use of railway
facilities.
The board says the
railways already have
strong economic incentives
to maintain safe operations
and that they should be en-
couraged to focus on im-
proving safety features.
As well, the board
believes that, before an
alternate route is con-
sidered, the proposed solu-
tion must not have the ef-
fect of simply transferring
the risks frau one area to
another.
Comment an Impact of
Free Trade on Metre
Toronto
The Board of Trade
agrees with the generally
positive assessment mace
by the Metro Toronto
Economic Development
division regarding the
potential impact of free
trade on the local economy.
The board strongly
recommends that Metro
Council review the
Economic Development
Division's sturdy, as well as
take account of the con-
cerns of less prosperous

Business Women Toys With Success
New educational toys are
available to consumers,
thanks to the spread of
Discovery Toys to Canada.
Discovery Toys was
started in the United States
in 1977 by Lane Nemeth,
who was looking for con-
structive, educational toys
for her daughter. The com-
pany has grown into a
manufacturer with 15,000
consultants in the U.S. with
sale of $65 million last year.
The toys are sturdy, educa-
tional and patented,
available only through a
consultant.
Last September,
Discovery Toys were made
available in Canada, with
900 consultants now work-
ing across the country.
Twenty-eight of those are
in the Scarborough, Ajax,
Pickering and Oshawa
areas.
Janice Gerol is one of the
consultants in Scar-

Discovery Toys "is a ser-

A mother herself, Gerd

Tupperware.
Gerol said the consultant
demonstrates the toys, and
points out the educational
aspects of each toy. The
learning aspect of each toy
is shown. and dewriptioos

percent. That means the
child must become involv-
ed, rather than simply con-
trol toys.
The day care centres and
nursery schools are in-

Gerol said her experience
has shown that parents buy
60 percent of the toys,
educational centres buy 40
percent.
As a career, Gerol said
being a consultant for

satisfying - emotionally
and financially. She said
some women to the U.S.
are making six figure in-

work as often or little as

allows her to be with her

If you're a businessperson who employs adult immigrants,
you know your employees benefit by learning English.
But did you know you benefit as well through improved
productivity, worker safety and morale, and much, much more.
The Scarborough Board of Education now offers Scarborough
employers and employee organizations English in the Work-
place. The program features a variety of classes at the work site
before, during, or after working hours.
Participants use what they team in class directly on the job.
Programs include English as a second language, French as a
second language, citizenship preparation, adult basic learning,
language for a specific purpose (such as writing reports), and
language for technical training.
Let us show you how you can benefit

Bill Watt's Worlds
THEATRE '.YEWS:
We recently wondered in
print if the present Im-
perial Six would be renam-
ed The Pantages when it is
converted to a legitimate
theatre.
We're pleased to state
that it will indeed be so
named. In fact, there is
already a Pantages sign on
the Victoria Street side of
the theatre.
At a recent media con-
ference Garth Drabinsky,
Cineplex Odeon Chairman
of the Board, announced
the plans for the refur-
bishing of the theatre as
well as some of the plans
for Cineplex Odeon's in-
volvement in legitimate
theatre across the country.
Exciting is hardly the word
to describe them'
The corner stone,
however. will be The Pan-
tages and Mr. Drabinsky
has stated unequivocally
that it will enjoy "as ac-
curate a restoration as
possible" of the original.
Mayor Art Eggleton, who
opened the conference.
made mention of what has
now been designated of-
ficially as the Theatre
Block. It will include
Massey Hall, the restored
Pantages and The Winter
Garden. No one has said
anything to us but we have
an idea that the Winter
Garden is to be the new
opera ballet house.
Why else would the On-
tario government be dragg-
ing its heels on the Bay.
Wellesley site? Remember
where you read it fust.
Anyway, the Pantages
should be fully restored
and ready for its official re-
opening by Christmas of
1989 at the latest. What an
event it will be!
And what a man is this
Garth Drabinsky! If there
isn't an Order of Canada
award for him in recogni-
tion of his latest project,
then there is no justice.

Catch The Gardening Spirit
Before you pick up your
spade and trowel this spr-
ing, join the Civic Garden
Centre on Sun. Apr. 24th for
"Catch the Gardening
Spirit" a day of gardening
and design ideas featuring
six speakers all dedicated
to helping you make your
garden the envy of the
neighbourhood.
David Tomlinson, a land-
scape architect and garden
designer, will lecture on
•named. is co-founder and
Artistic Director of the Na-
tional Tap Dance Company
of Canada.
Show time is 3 p.m. and
we offer the usual
reminder that the George
Ignatieff Theatre is on
Devonshire PI. just behind
and close to Varsity
Stadium. And, oh yes, this
Sunday's guest M. C. will be
Tom Kneebone.
IN THE CLUBS:
Opening tonight at the
Imperial Room for a two
and a half week run is the
revue Broadway' Broad-
way . Producer; director
Larry Alford has previous-
ly presided Gotta Sing!
Gotta Dance!, Parts I and
II and last year's Steppin'
Out.
Ibis year's revue pro-
mises songs and dancing
from Phantom of the
Opera. Les Miserabies. Me
and My Girl idare we hope
we'll see a genuine
Lambeth Walk'). A Chorus
Line and other hits.
Our review will follow
but, at the risk of lasing
critical acuity. we can't see
how the stow can miss.
ON RECORD:
One of the more popular
groups recording for
children is the Sphere
Clown Band whose first LP
I Can Do Anything was
nominated for a June
award.
One of this country's
more unusual direct
marketing companies is
Creative Kids.
The latter are releasing
the farmer's latest album
and it's titled Sharing -
Sphere Clown Band and
Creative Kids.
The album was produced
at Rettberg Sound Produc-
twns in Mississauga using
the latest in computer
technology. It will be
available only on cassette
(we have an uneasy feeling
that the days of L.P.s are
limited) with an initial
shipment of 10,000 units.
OPPORTUNITY:
Here's something in-
teresting sent along to us
by the Canadian Opera
Company.
The C.O.C. is in-
augurating an intensive
year long training program
in the art of make-up and
wigs. Canada is in great
need of trained theatrical
wig and make-up profes-
sionals and this program
would seem to be a fine op-
portunity to develop the
much needed skills of the
field.
It's based on the appren-
ticeship theory that
students receive the best
training in actual work
situations. Before embark-
ing on actual production
work, students will receive
over six months of class in-
struction. They will then
work on actual Canadian
Opera Company produc-
the subject of "Shrubs and
Their Companion Plants".
Jim Belisle, architect and
Sheila Murray, landscape
architect, will direct your
thoughts towards "Per-
sonalizing Your Own
Garden".
Trevor Ashbee will give
you a step by step presenta-
tion on the popular subject
"The Rockery from
Scratch". Noted organic
gardener Mary Perlmutter
will share her secrets of
"Country Gardening, the
Organic Way".
George Pagowski, hor-
ticulturalist with the Royal
Botanical Gardens, will be
demonstrating "Gardening
in Small Spaces", a must
for city dwellers, and June
Stone's lecture an "Garden
Adornment" reflects the
changing look of gardens
....
tions.
Selected applicants will
be tested for acceptance in-
to the program the week of
May 23rd. The cause will
run from the fust we of
July 1916 until June 24th.
Im.
Anyone interested should
send a written application
(do not phone) with resurrnt
and references to Martha
Gleeson. Wig & Make-up
Training Program in care
of the Canadian Opera
Company. Good luck.
IN PRINT:
Now that Oliver North is
back in the news again,
James Michener's latest
work is even more worthy
of attention.
The title is Legacy
(published by Random
House) and it is quite short
by Michener standards. We
make mention of the fact
because we suspect that
Mr. Michener wrote it out
of great feeling for the
state of his country and
wanted that feeling in
print -
The story concerns an
Oliver North type who has
been summoned before
government to explain
what might or might not
have been illegal and or
unethical activities on
behalf of the military.
He knows that there are
certain activities be will
not be able to disclose; he
will not be able to defect
himself as he should. A well
intended fried tells him he
must "plead the fifth".
Major Norman Starr is
an honest man; he must do
what is best for his country
but he does not want his
family name besmirched.
He thinks back back to
the long line of Americans
from whom he is descend-
ed. One was a Supreme
Court Justice; another
figures importantly in the
unofficial nightly debates
about the drafting of the
constitution; another was a
suffragist; all were in-
dividuals who had made
decisions of honour.
He then decides upon his
own course of action. Of
course, we cannot tell you
what it is. We say only that
if Mr. Michener never
writes another book (he is
now in his 80's) he will be
well and, we dare say, lov-
ingly remembered for
Legacy. This is a story that
reinforces one's backbone.
Intruders) The Incredible
Visitations at Copley
Woods by Budd Hopkins
today
"Catch the Gardening
Spirit" is an educational
event for the town and
country gardener, the
homeowner and the apart-
ment dweller. There is in-
formation available for the

listen to all six speakers or
have your gardening ques-
tions answered by one of
the Civic Garden Centre's
Master Gardeners.
The fee is $30 for

Hopkins is on the stump
again about U.F.O.s.
Frankly. we are inclined to
accept that the earth is
under observation by
superior beings or entities -
We are not inclined,
however, to accept the idea
based on a book such as In-
truders.
It is filled with so many
"what ifs", possibly's and
the like that it soon loses
any vestige of credibility.
In addition it is incredibly
dull in writing style. One
might accept chil in
the presentation of scien-
tific facts but Hopkins pro-
duces none. No, that's not
quite fair; Mr. Hopkins
does present some
evidence but none of it suf-
ficient to make the point he
seems to be essaying.
Still, we have a feeling
that Intruders might soon
appear in softcover and if it
does, it might be worth
your attention. But $26. for
the hardcover is a bit rich.

Kingstone for mention of us

POST SCRIPT:
Some years ago
Publisher Richard Simon
decided to include a half-
dozen adhesives in a new
juvenile titled Dan, the
Bandage Man. He wired to
a friend at Johnson &
Johnson "Please ship two
million band-aids im-
mediately".
He received a reply
"Band-aids on the way.
What the bell happened to
you?"

To You
Scott FenneN M.P.

Right now is not too early for students to begin their
search for summer jobs. Following is a guide with helpful
tips for students to assist in this search.
The local Canada Employment Centre can provide you
with a Social Insurance Number, counselling, and job
placement. Review the jobs available on the bulletin board,
register as looking for work, pick up information material,
and talk with an employment counsellor about your future
career plans and what present jobs can help you towards
that goal.
Talk with your student services /guidance counsellor to
obtain advice on the kind of work suitable, ask if they would
provide a character reference to a potential employer, and
get information on youth opportunities.
Following this you can: contact the local Chamber of
Commerce; check community bulletin boards; put the
word out and speak to friends of the family as they may
know of a job; check the classified section in the
newspaper; store windows; youth emploment services, and
temporary and private employment agencies.
It is a good idea to have on hand a resume to give to a
potential employer. Your resume should include your
name, address, phone number. S.I.N., education, wont ex-
perience, what machines and business equipment you know
how to operate, personal interests, and references. Once
you have identified a potential employer, phone or drop by
the place of business and leave your resume. You may be
asked to be interviewed right away so be prepared, or you
may be asked to fill out an application. Read it carefully,
and be clear and concise when answering the questions.
If an interview is set up. make sure you arrive on time,
make sure you know the named the person who is inter
rnetr. you, dress appropriately for the job, and be neat
and clean. During the interview. you have to convince the
employer that you are the right person for the job by
displaying a healthy attitude. a desire to take on respow
wbihty, and your qualifications and the hours you are
available. This is also the time for you to decide whether
you want the job. When the interview comes to an end,
thank the interviewer for the opportunity to discuss fob op-
portunities with him or her, and make sure to ask when a
decision will be reached.
Don't get discouraged if you don't succeed at first,
sonxtlring is bound to come along. Good Luck'

Small Details Yield Happy
Travel Memories
For all too many Cana-
dian travellers, the
romance of travel over-
whelms the sense of the
practical - the planning
that is so essential to the
success of their vacation.
Before you get swept
away looking at those lush
travel brochures, spend a
few hours considering all
those little things that will
help make your foreign
vacation memorable. Start
with the basics: What will
you take to pay for your
vacation entertainment.
lodgings. meals and tours'
You really have three
choices of payment, each
with its own special advan-
tages and disadvantages.
Let's review them.
Cash: As the old axiom
goes. cash is the one thing
that's accepted
everywhere. Almost - cash
is accepted everywhere.
providing it is the right cur-
rency. So before you go.
check on the currency they
take where you will be
visiting. Then check the ex-
change rates - you may be
able to do better on the ex-
change rates right here at
home than you will
overseas. A reminder.
despite recent battering.
the U.S. dollar is still
welcomed in most foreign
countries.
Ne3d, consider the ad-
vantages and disadvan-
tages of cash. It is highly li-
quid, but it's irreplaceable
if lost - and if it is lost. that
could spell the end of your
vacation before it really
gets underway. The best
rule: Don't store all your
cash in one place and put
some of it in the hotel safe
when you arrive, so you
won't be wiped out if your
cash -in -hand is lost or
stolen.

they're not universally ac-
cepted. Before you buy,
check if you can cash them
where you are going, if
they're available in the
currency of the local coun-
tries you will be visiting
and how long it would take
to replace them if they
were stolen.
Credit Cards: Credit
cards offer lots of advan-
tages. You don't have to
carry a lot of money, you
have a built-in cushion for
emergencies, and they are
easy. They are accepted in
most places. But be warn-
ed. not all places accept
them; you should know
how to cancel them and
replace them if they are
lost or stolen; and you do
run the risk of getting car-
ried away with them and
forgetting how much you
are spending.
Other common sense
travelling tips:
• Keep your cedit card
slips and compare them
with your bills so you don't
get stuck with a bogus bill.
• Don't keep all your
money - cash, travellers'
cheques and credit cards in
one place - then if one bag
is last or stolen. your whole

Report

MPP Durham West
A series of provincial initiatives to enhance the quality of
life for older adults recently got underway.
"Older adults need to plan their retirement years before
they actually leave the workforce," said Ontario's Minister
of Tourism and Recreation, Hugh O'Neil when announcing
the start of the $3,155,000 three-year series of initiatives.
"Our new initiatives will help older adults live full and in-
dependent lives," he said.
The initiatives include: Public Awareness, Lifestyle
Planning for Older Adults, Older Adults -Unemployed Youth
Partnership and Creative Initiatives for Older Adults.
A provincial conference on Creative Initiatives for Older
Adults was held in Ottawa from March 20th to the 24th. In-
formation acquired at the conference, hosted by the
Ministry of Tourism and Recreation, will be used by profes-
sionals and volunteers in the recreation field to set up pro-
grams in their own communities.
Lifestyle Planning for Older Adults is designed to assist
people approaching retirement face major adjustments in
lifestyle and make decisions with respect to the use of
leisure time, personal finances and health.
The Ministry has produced a manual "Retirement Plann-
ing Program for Small Communities in Ontario" to enable
a community to develop a retirement planning program us-
ing regional and local resources. Copies of the manual can
be obtained by prospective program leaders through local
Ministry of Tourism and Recreation offices.
Under the Public Awareness Program there are two
educational messages to business and industry workers
over 40 vears of age: that advance prancing for retirement
helps people get the most out of it and retirement is an ex-
citing and challenging opportunity.
Retired individuals will be encouraged to work with
unemployed youiRs under the Older Adult -Unemployed
Youth Partnership with the aim of helping both age groups
cope with day -today problems. The first phase of the pro-
gram involves selecting people from both age groups to
develop some priorities and objectives and make recom-
mendations to the Ministry for future action. The second
phase would include plot programs in four eornmu pities
across Ontario.
Groups representing older adults were consulted by the
Ministry in the development of these initiatives, which were
announced in the April I= Speech frau the Throne.
"These initiatives will improve health and morale in
older adults. In turn, their dependence on the health care
system and other social services will be reduced," Mr.
O'Neil said.
