After five years of plann- ing and submissions, Trent received approval Oct. 22 from the Ontario Council of Graduate Studies. The new PhD program is an exten- sion of an already well established inter- disciplinary master's pro- gram in environmental science. "The evaluation of this particular program to doc- toral status is a natural, but very important, evolu- tion from a very suc- cessful, internationally recognized masters -level graduate program," says Paul Healy. Trent's acting associate dean of research and graduate studies. A unique feature of the PhD program is its inter- disciplinary scope, says Doug Evans, chairman of the Watershed Ecosystems Graduate Program. It spans physical, biological and chemical sciences. The doctoral program. like the master's program. will focus on toxicology and contaminants, physical and chemical environmen- tal processes. and ecological processes. Typical research projects will be developing tests of carcinogenicity, where food and water con- taminants end up, snow melt. pesticide disperse- ment, fish habitat rehabilitation. causes of forest decline and the response of aquatic organisms to environmen- tal stress. Trent's broad approach to environmental problem solving and its unique em- phasis in Canada on aquatic sciences gives graduates an advantage in the job market, say the authors of the PhD pro- gram proposal. They will be in high demand in government agencies and research institutes con- cerned with managing and protecting Canadian water resources and fisheries. Enrolment is expected to grow from three in the first year to an annual average of nine by the third year. Qualifying students will have M.Sc. degrees in physical, chemical or biological sciences with sufficient background to undertake research. In addition to 32 Trent faculty from three depart- ments - Geography, Biology and Environmen- tal and Resource Sciences - the PhD program will draw upon government and industry experts appointed as adjunct faculty. The pro- gram is unique in Ontario for the involvement of these external personnel. This Space Could Be Yours For I ■ ■ PER WEEK II I This Space Could Be Yours For $12 Fs.

A informed trustees of the ac- tivities that will take place in Durham schools on the Nov. 12 professional development day. The day has been planned cooperatively by D.W.T.A., O.P.S.T.F. Durham District and O.S.S.F. District 17. Over 200 workshops will be offered to the 5000 participating teachers, occasional teachers, educational assistants and other staff members. This year's workshops will be based on 4 themes: the environment. cur- riculum integration in the transition years, special education and co-operative learning. The majority of the workshops will take place in Durham Board schools and will be offered by Durham Board presenters.

Sylvia's Residence For Teens, Moms & Adolescents Sylvia's Residence is a multi -service resource cen- tre for teen moms and adolescents, using a refer- ral system to serve those in need of assistance. "We have developed a number of prams and services for those in- didivuals in need of assistance in the Durham Region," says Juliet Duke - Hunte director of Sylvia's Residence. Since 1981, Juliet has cared for these young adolescents, some preg- nant and some with children, using her home as shelter. "The number of teenagers attempting to raise a family on their own increases yearly at an alar- ming rate," she says, "and adequate family or com- munity support is not available." Her research shows that there is an urgent need for a Residential Home in the Durham Region to give thgse young women shelter, guidance and sup- port in their everyday life. "We have served over 40 young women and men in the past years and expect to serve about 20 young adolescents at a time for a period of six months or more. We can only help a small group in need because of the size of our home." says Juliet. On Oct. 1, 1972 Sylvia's Residence For Teen Moms and Adolescents was registered as a community based "'.Von Profit Charitable Organization". Juliet is seeking funding and community support to accommodate clients from the Durham and surroun- ding areas. Volunteers are welcome. The main thrust presently is fundraising. Beds, linens, cribs, baby needs to office supplies can be donated to Sylvia's Residence on an ongoing basis. Those wanting to volunteer or to donate goods can contact Juliet Duke -Hunte at (905) 427-0052. "Take A Student To Work" day on Tues. Nov. 30. The idea for this project is bas- ed on a successful venture by the Ms. Foundation of New York which held a day for female students to at- tend work with parents, friends and teachers. The board's intention is to offer the opportunity to both male and female grade 9 students to gather valid information about careers and career -related choices which face these students as early as February 1994. An awareness of the realities Of the future is lacking in many students at this age and a day in a work en- % i ronment may assist in wading the student toward nformed opinions about uture directions. Pauline Ding. Director of Education for the Durham Board has offered enthusiastic support for the program• developed by the Co-operative Education and Employment Equity Departments. The Chamber of Commerce. Rotary Clubs, Downtown Business Associations and Weal business and labour will be invited to support the project with their en- couragement and knowledge. This is a resource -sharing oppor- tunity for all partners. Schools participating in the project are Central C.1., General Vanier S.S. and R -S. Mclaughlin C.L.

November 24.199:1 Opinion a page for expression for you and us Bob's Notes by Bob Watson Too Many Laws One of the ways to get our business community back into working shape to provide jobs and make profits for future action is to get rid of a number of provincial laws. There is no advantage to this province to have a law demanding that a person working in an office has to have his or her salary equal to a person working in a completely different job - such as climbing hydro poles. No business can function effectively if a law insists that a certain percentage of the company employees must be black, female, or immigrants from another land. Employees must be hired by a business on the basis of how good the person is to do the job and assist the company to succeed. And there are definitely no decent reasons to ban "white males" from all government jobs just to look like there is equality in the hiring. Such anti -white male discrimination is the peak of racial discrimination in the work force. Many Amencan-owned companies have been leaving On- tario because of all this government interference in their work force. There is nothing the Bob Rae government can do if a company decides to leave this province with its ridiculous laws. In another area of laws. we have the Minister of Health pushing through a law to ban cigarette smoking by anyone under 19. Does Ruth Grier really believe that her law can stop a young person from getting a cigarette' Let's get down to basic common sense. Do we have to wait for the NDP government to be defeated at the polls' Against Baseball Park Dear Editor: I learn from the West Hill News (Oct. 27, 1993) that clearance from Metro Council has been given for the building of a baseball diamond in the projected East Point Park in Scarborough. The contract will go to Vicon - Contracting for an estimated cost of $3.157,570. East Point is the last shoreline wilderness in Metro. It lies across the migration pathways for birds of all species and is home to many regionally rare plants. Slated for develop- ment as the latest addition to Metro's parklands, it was slid past the statutory requirement for environmental assess- ment last May when the Minister of Environment declared such assessment ''not rpcessar•y' Two questions arse from this contract. 1 ) In these straitened tithes, is the expenditure of $3-1 2 million of public funds justified for a baseball diamond when it would be more expedient to put money into keeping existing facilities operative. Anson Public School, for ex- ample. has closed two of its three baseball diamonds. 21 wiry, with the perfectly functional Heron Park baseball diamond lying just north of the railway tracks, is Metro planning construction of a brand new facility im- mediately south of the tracks' Specifically, has no one given due consideration to the possibility of accident to kids crossing that track' - or is further expenditure already en- visaged for the building of an overpass once an accident has happened' Apart from unnecessary destruction of a large area of future parkland• this move smacks of financial gamesman- ship. Agreed, we need sports facilities, but we meed social services and hospitals more. yet many of these are being closed throughout the city dire to lack of funds. By what political justification does :Metro clear such expenditure in today's economic conditions for a considerably less than life or death project'. Sincerely. E. Davis 1000 Kingston Rd.

It was negotiated in secret, and every effort has been made to keep it from public scrutiny. That is why it was rammed through Parliament. That is why it is being fast - tacked through the US Congress. NAFTA is not a simple trade treaty to reduce tariffs. Here's one example. Article 201.2 declares that "a reference to a state or province includes local governments of that state or province'. Article 105 declares: '-The Par- ties shall ensure that all necessary measures are taken in order to give effect to the provisions of this Agreement in- cluding their observance by state and provincial govern- ments." Under NAFTA, all public sector contracts of M. 000 or more tendered by municipal governments, school boards, county and provincial agencies must be open to US and Mexican companies, with no residency restrictions. The compliance of provincial and municipal governments to the ter -ins of NAFTA may require new enforcement agen- cies in our federal government or in the nonelected Free Trade Commission. NAFTA can only be stopped in two ways: 1) if the anti- Nafta candidates of the Liberal, National, and New Democratic parties are elected: 2) if US ctiiaens can per- suade Congress to reject NAFTA. To make NAFTA palatable to Congress, side deals on labour and environment have been negotiated. But these side deals require provincial consent. Thus, a third way of blocking NAFTA would be for Canadian provinces to refuse the side deals. If our NDP government in Ontario would simply state that it will not approve the side deals, that would help defeat NAFTA in Congress and help raise the profile of NAFTA in our election campaigns. Historically, the US has always tried to get control of Queen's Park Report Anne Swarbrick, M.P.P. Scarborough West Health care issues are in the forefront of everyone's mind these days. Maintaining the high standards of health care services to which we've become accustomed in Ontario is a priority with our government. How this is accomplished re- quires some tough decisions. To meet the increasing demand for hemodialysis in the Metro area, the Ministry of Health is temporarily providing funding to put 25 more people on hemodialysis on an outpa- tient basis at the Toronto Hospital and Sumnybrook Health Science Centre. The measure is temporary until the Sussex Centre Assisted Self -Care Unit opens in Mississauga in Spr- ing 1994 to provide dialysis services for 40 patients. Maximizing resources is essential. A shortage of dollars and increasing pressure on services as a result of the 10 per cent annual increase in end-stage renal disease patients, linked to the aging population and the increase in diabetes, mean a proactive approach is necessary. For this reason, the Ministry has provided $100,000 one-time funding to Cen- tral Ontario Region district health councils for a review of the demand for dialysis services and the current delivery system. The hoped-for result is recommendations for effec- tive uses of already existing resources while making it easier for patients to access services in their own com- munities. And — to deal with the increased demand. For more information call: Layne Verbeek, Ministry of Healh, 327-4365. Is Public Education Working For You? While the Royal commission on Learning begins its review of public education, the Ontario government is already instituting major reforms, responding to concerns that the system is not preparing students for the future. The Minister of Education and Training has set up a separate tact -wading study to examine the cost of school boards and now says the province will participate in national standards testing. reversing the province's previous policy. Meanwhile, destreaming is proceeding despite concerns that teachers were not properly prepared for the sudden change. Some people want to return to streaming. saying it's the best way to meet the needs and abilities of each stu- dent. Yet others are caning for Black -focussed schools, say- ing destreaming will not solve the high drop-out rate among Mack students. Vision TV is presenting "Is Public Education Working For You'" on Thurs. Nov. 25th at 8 p_ in. at the St. Lawrence Centre Foran, 27 Front St. E. There is fret admission and refreshments. MP's Pensions In 1991 the Canadian Federation of Independent Business asked its 83,000 small business members if they felt MPS retirement pensions should start immediately aftr a member leaves office, regardless of age. An overwhelming 89 per cent were opposed to the ctarent system of pension compensation. CFIB then asked in September 1993 whether MP pensions should begin at age 65. Ninety per cent said they should. In light of the small business community's resounding op- position to the current administration of MP pensions, (FIB undertook an analysis of the entire pension system,. The results, contained in a report entitled "Cash for Life", concludes that MPs have indeed treated themselves "to one of the most generous pension arrangements in Canada" which is currently costing taxpayers teas of millions of dollars every year. In additin to this report, CFIB will push the new govern- ment to introduce a comprehensive reform package as quickly as possible. (Fm's recommendations include three options which, if implemented, will substantially help in reducing the casts to taxpayers and, at the same time, send a clear signal that this new government is serious about the overall issue of deficit reduction.

Checking From Behind: Education and Prevention The most common cause of serious spinal injuries in hockey is when a player is checked, pushed or bumped from behind and goes head Irst into the boards. Such injuries have left some victims paralysed for life. As a coach, it is your responsibility to ensure that your players develop the Proper at and skills to protect themselves and opponents from dangerous hits from behind - Education must begin at the start of the season. Coaches at all levels, contact and non - tact, must help players develop respect for opponents and rules. Players must be aware of the consequences of checking, shoving, or umping an opponent who is in the "danger one", the 3-4 metres of ice in front of the boards. Teach your players to treat opponents as they like to be treated themselves! Coaches in categories with contact should recognize that checking is an advanced skill hich must be taught using proper teaching progressions, and only once the players have mastered all skating skills. Safety must be the first priority when teaching checking Skills. Here are more suggestions. - ensure your players stretch properly before all games and practices - make sure your players include exercises to strengthen neck muscles in off -ice training programs - teach your players the proper technique for receiving checks, and to always be alert when in the "danger zone. - encourage referees to enforce all rules that penalize checking from behind For more resources. obtain the videos SmarT Hockey " with .44ike Bossy and "NCCP Checking " from voua Branch once or the CAHA Resource Centre. Page 10 THE NEWS POST Wed. November 24, 1993 Bill Watt's Worlds ON STAGE: One reads that Rough Crossing, the Canadian Stage Company's musical which has just opened at the St. Lawrence Centre is based on Ferenc Molnar's "Play At The Castle". Ad- mitting an unfamiliarity of chronology. The Column suggests that Molnar bor- rowed from an earlier treatment by Bolton and Wodehouse that was reworked by Lindsay and Crouse to become Anything Goes. Significantly, that earlier treatment concern- ed a fire at sea but was discarded after the marine disaster of the Morro Cas- tle. Whatever its genesis. Tom Stoppard has rework- ed Molnar's light European Comedy into an attempt at high camp. It hasn't work- ed. Oh. it's pleasantly glossy enough and there are a few - too few -chuckles along the way though hardly enough to mention. But. where Molnar, influenced by Shaw. was witty. Stoppard is merely glib in the man- ner of a tied Simon aping Noel Coward. The play concerns the shenanigans of a pair of producers trying to put together an operetta during a trans-Atlantic sea cross- ing. One is an egomaniac, the other is a gour- mand glutton. The propos- ed leading lady is in love with herself and her com- poser, a young dolt who is besotted by her but fearful of an incestuous mother who fortunately doesn't ap- pear Then, there's her ex - lover and the obligatory incompetent cabin steward. All very funny no doubt in the twenties and thirties but now only mildly amusing and only as a polished up curiosity piece It might have been saved by music but there's precious little of it and that little. not good. Composer Andre Previn seems to have lost his touch for light melody. Perhaps he should review the works of his late father Charles Previn. a Hollywood stalwart of the [hurtles. So, in the end, the au- dience applauds, and with deserved vigour, only the accomplishments of a cast burdened with a dated script and the manic direc- tion of Derek Goldby. Michael Ball imper- sonates John Barrymore in Twentieth Century as the playwright and Barry McGregor is somewhere between Sidnev Greenstreet and Alexander Woolcott as his food -loving collaborator. Steven Sutcliffe zombies his way through the role of the com- poser and reliable Michael Polley is sufficiently silly as the leading lady's former paramour. The leading lady herself is portrayed a la Jayne Meadows by one Chris Peterson who might or might not be ... well, you'd better see the play for yourself to decide. Sky Gilbert who was seated behind us seemed to enjoy the portrayal. Simon Bradbury is aboard (aren't we nautical'') as the cabin steward. It's a plummy role, the sort every actor covets and he plumbs it (pun intentional) for everything it's worth. Un- fortunately, he's been made up, unintentionally no doubt. to look like the very young Charlie Chaplin as Billy the Page in Sherlock Holmes and stn(- fexs, naturally enough, by compulsive comparison. Look, we're going to employ a description which we haven't used for years and which is borrowed from the late Jack Karr. He was always a gentleman and when he was reviewing for the Toronto Star a motion pic- ture that was less than taut, great, he'd describe it as "an agreeable time passer-. Thank you Mr. Karr for helping us to describe Rough Crossing.

The National Ballet has a new production of La Sylphide which debuted at The O'Keefe at the close of the company's Fall Season. BournonviIIe's choreography was added to by Erik Bruhn in 1949 as his first production. In that same year, George Crum added to and re- orchestrated the score. Now in 1993 we have new decor and costumes by Desmond Heeley, new lighting design by Robert Thomson and, most impor- tant, new staging by Joanne Nisbet, a principal ballet mistress with the company. All are welcome and cause one's long stan- ding love of La Sylphide to flower again, as with a se - cad honeymoon. On opening night the title role was danced by Chan Hoh Goh. All ballet danseurs are capable of projecting etherealism but the ladies of the Onent seem to have the quality naturally. This one in par- ticular exemplies the gift. She is light. she is dainty. she is ... ethereal. Yet, she is not so much so that the emotions of love and pas- sion are not in abundant evidence. Her acting is sur- passed only by her danc- ing, especially her work on point. Jeremy Ransom danced the role of James, the man who falls in love with her on the day of his intended wed- ding to another. Here too is a fine actor and Mr. Ran- som nicely wavers between his lave for the unworldly creature and his desire to act as a gentleman toward those he loves on earth. It goes without saying that he dances well and it seems to us that his lifts are improv- ing all the time. Air. Ran- som is of slight build and his continuing excellence in HERITAGE HIGHLIGHT~ strength moves -he's always been superb solo -is tribute to his determination to be the very best. Pierre Quinn is rather too bullish as Gurn in love with James' intended but Sarah Greets as Effy the in- tended, is sweetly enchan- ting in an earthbound way. Some excellent dancing as well by Jennifer Four- nier as the lead sylph. In fact, one should once again pay tribute to Reid Ander- son and the way he has whipped the cotes into the best it has ever been. Before La Sylphide, one viewed Balanchine's The Four Temperaments. Although each measure is intended as a literal mood piece, the fact is that The Four Temperaments is bet- ter perceived as a series of exercises displaying the expertise of the dancers. As such. it's masterful stuff. Particularly impressive were Gizella Witkowski ) is she ever anything but'.) in the Fourth Variation: Choleric and Robert Tewsley in the Third Variation: Phlegmatic.

CURTAIN CALL: So The National has now completed its current season at The O'Keefe and will not return there until the Yuletide with its annual presentation of The Nut- cracker. In the interim, the Royal Winnipeg Ballet coteries to The O'Keefe from Nov. 30th to Dec. 1st. Prima ballerina Evelyn Hart is scheduled to dance. It will be the first time she has ap- peared with the RWB in Toronto since 1988. Ballet- totmanes are salivating in anticipation already. The company will pre- sent mixed programs of short works including Balanchine's Allegro and Agnes DeMille's Rodeo. IN THE CLUBS: Lawrence Martin was born on the Moose Factory reserve of a Cree mother and an Irish father. He is a half breed. The term is not intended as a pejorative though one supposes it might be considered politically incorrect by Brian Charlton and the rest of his Big Brothers in Queen's Park. Lawrence Martin is the mayor of Sioux Lookout, the first native to be elected to such an office in Ontario. Lawrence Martin is also an entertainer in the lively arts and, under his Indian name of W'apistan, the first artist to record for First Nations Music Inc. on the Wataway label which is dedicated to the presenta- tion of musical artistry by and for Indians. The Column was at the Bamboo Club to see and bear Wapistan and his grog perform. As many will have deduc- ed by now, we don't always appreciate much of modern popular music, let alone enjoy it. But, we could appreciate the music of Wapistan and, within the parametnes of our taste, enjoy it. As best one can tell, its primary beat is of the primitive or at least what has been so styled by the uninitiated. The vocalizing is much given to keening. Both are served up in a heavy acoustic beat but with none of the con- stipatory rage that's so fre- quently a part of Rock. A most auspicious begin- ning that augurs well for success. ON T.V.

From the beginning. flying was an adventure for May. On his first World War One combat mis- %ion, he shot sown an enemy air- craft. As he returned. May's guns jammed and he was chased by the German ace. Baron Manfred von Richthofen. Captain Roy Brown. one of Mays Alberta school chums, shot down Richtofen and saved his friend from becoming the 81st victim of the Red Baron. After the war. May settled in Edmonton and started a commer- cial aviation business, along with daring "barnstorming" exhibi- tions. He was one of the founding members of the Edmonton and Northern Alberta Aero Club. All of May's skill and ingenu- ity were called on when he was asked to fly a mercy mission on the bitterly cold New Year's Day of 1929. On December 15, a Hudson Bay J, C o m p a n y employee in Lit- tle Red Ri%er, north of Fort Vermilion, died of diphtheria. Other cases were breaking out and vaccine was des- perately needed to prevent an epi- demic in the community of about 300 people. The nearest radio station was at Peace River, and Louis Bourassa the postal courier set out on a 14 -day dog sled trip to send the urgent request. In Edmonton, May and his co- pilot Vic Horner prepared to make Watch for the Ht your local tel For mere isforawtion about the F the trip while emergency workers gathered the life-saving serum. The only airplane available to them was a small Avro biplane with open cockpits, and no skiis for winter landing. To protect the vaccine from freezing, it was placed in an _ :40 ` z improvised ther- mal unit consist- ing of heated containers balanced on a portable charcoal stove and covered with blankets. Blizzard conditions forced them to land on a frozen lake at McLennan Junction, almost half- way to Fort Vermilion. May real- ized that he would have to remove the plane's oil to prevent it from congealing, but he did not have a container. Undaunted, he siphoned the oil onto the crusty snow where it froze immediately. -ritage Minutes on evision station. Ieritage Project call I -MINI -W-1567. May carried the "oilsicle" to the village• where it thawed overnight. May and Homer arrived in Fort Vermilion the following day. Their precious cargo was protect- ed but the fliers were so frost-bit- ten that they had to be physically removed from the cockpit. The serum was dispersed by dog sled to the anxious communi- ty and the epidemic was checked. A rowd of 5,000 was on hand to greet the heroes when they returned to Edmonton and May was awarded the prestigious McKee Trophy for his efforts. May received the Order of the British Empire in 1935. He pio- neered aerial search and rescue techniques and helped set up the British Commonwealth Air Train- ing Plan during WWII. The bush pilots of Canada's North helped the nation enter into an new era of transportation and communication. Wilfred Reid May, who was nicknamed "Wop" by a baby cousin who could not pronounce "Wilfred," was one of the test.

Birds, proportionate to their size and weight, are 75% stronger than humans. Tiger birds of South America can imitate a tiger's roar and the three wattled bell birds of Costa Rica have a call that can be heard for three miles. So, how come the bird population is diminishing? travel fj SCHOOL MEETtt�G PIaCE �-. Discover The Holiday` Spirit In Massachusetts Candlelight tours of lavishly decorated homes, Christmas carolling in quaint villages, cosy sleigh rides and festivals of Christmas lights all add up to a fun and enjoyable winter holiday in Massachusetts. A number of events are planned for this holiday season throughout the state of Massachusetts. The Prudential Center in downtown Boston kicks off the holidays Dec. 4th at 6 p.m. with its annual Tree Lighting and Carol Sing. This is no ordinary tree lighting - the mammoth 50 foot white spruce takes over 3200 man hours, 4.5 miles of wire and 17,000 multi -coloured lights to decorate the tree. The Christmas tree is also unique in another way - it is sent by the Nova Scotia government. The tradition of sending the huge Christmas tree to Boston began in 1971 when Nova Scotia wanted to ex- press thanks to the citizens of Boston for their valuable assistance to families in Halifax when a massive ex- plosion rocked Halifax Harbour in World War 1. The generosity and corn - passion between Massachusetts and No,6a Scotia continues to this day. The Christmas celebra- tions continue the next day ( Dec. 5th) with the first an- nual Sleigh Bell Parade in downtown Boston starting at 12 noon. The parade will feature an array of elaborate floats. marching bands, and cultural enter- tainment reflecting the new England region's rich history and maritime heritage. The parade ends with the jolly man himself, Santa Claus, and a spec- tacular tree lighting ceremony at the State House. Sing Christmas carols and make snow angels in the Winter Wonderland at the Boston Common, where an outdoor holiday village will be created for the fust time. Visit Santa's workshop, watch live reindeer at play, or par- ticipate in the many daily activities happening in the Boston Common. The Winter Wonderland will be on display from Nov. 26 - Dec. 26th, with the lighting ceremony scheduled for Dec. 5th. Just a short drive south of Boston off Interstate 95 is the town of Attleboro. For 41 years, the La Salette Shrine has celebrated a Festival of Lights with over 250,000 lit up during the festive season. It is the largest outdoor religious themed display in the eastern United States, en- compassing 17 acres. The display opens Nov. 25 to Jan. 2, 1994. Admission is free but advance reserva- tions are required. Nearby are shops which N w England visit Nantucket Island dur- ing the holidays.

Brag That You Are Canadian .. .. ... 19th century conservation that runs at Black Creek Pioneer Village until Dec. 31, 19903. Come on out and discover how rag nags were braided, how patchwork quilts were pieced together. and how r families stretched their budgets through creative approaches to the materials they had at hand. Find out for yourself how much fun you can have recycling the old-fashioned way. The "Every Last Drop" exhibit demonstrates countless ways everyday items were used less, reused and turn- ed into other items. Discover how red lint was turned into rouge, the mauve paper wrappings on sugar were used to make blue dye and even how human hair was transform- ed into jewellery. Of course, for many pioneers, the 3 Rs were more of an economic than environmental necessity. Manufactured goods were scarce. And money was even more so. As a result. the quality and durability of goods was of prime im- portance. More often than not, once a product has served its original purpose, it was transformed into something new and equally useful. Old newspapers became insulation for the walls and floors. Fireplace and cookstove ashes were used as fertilizer and for making soap. Feathers from the home plucked Christmas goose were used to fill mat- tresses, pillows and com- forters, or as quill pens and feather dusters. In a time when water had to be lugged from a well or pump outside, many ways were found to reduce and reuse this scarce source. Clothing was made with detachable collars and cuffs to avoid having to launder the whole gar- ment. Daily bathing con- sisted of washing face, hands and neck only and that water was often used by the whole family. "Use it up, wear it out. make it do. or do without... was a popular Victorian maxim. Other expressions, "a stitch in time saves nine" for example, are still in common use. The frugality and resourcefulness of people in 19th century Ontario is clearly demonstrated by the exhibit. Imagine a time when conservation meant collecting any stray feathers that escaped from your pillow so that they could be reused' Come to Black Creek's "Every Last Drop" exhibit and discover interesting and useful recycling tips that were part of life over 1w years ago. You'll be amazed by the many unex- pected uses a single every- day item could have. Black Creek Pioneer Village is open daily from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p. m. ( closed on Nov. 15, 16. 22, 23 and Dec. 25 ).

"Our recreation pro- grams are especially designed to reflect the needs and interests of older adults," says Patti Craine, SPLC Recreation Program Coordinator. "We know seniors like to learn about their worid and visit near- by attractions so we developed two unique travel programs, a World Georgaphy class and a variety of guided trips and tours. ,. SPLC's World Geography Class, hosted by professional photojour- nalist and author Keith Hyde, features dynamic slide presentations. Hyde has explored a world of destinations and collected a colourful view of sites throughout such points as Austria, Egypt, India, Ukraine, Nepal and more. The class also features general discussion and seniors are encouraged to contribute their own travel experiences. Most class members, however, seem to enjoy simply viewing Hyde's vast photo collec- tion. The class meets every Wednesday from 1:30 - 3:30 p.m. and has room for a few more participants! "The World Geography class is great for our seniors who have a sense for exploring new places but may not want to em- bark on an actual trip," says Patti Craine. "However, packing a bag and heading out for a mini- vacation is another option available through SPLC and the trip committee knows how to have a hap- py, safe and inexpensive vacation."

Pearson Cl News Common Concerns Day by Stefan Sierako% ski In a real effort to give Pearson students direct ac - to their school ad- ministration and to place a high priority on student concerns and ideas, the first of several planned Cornmon Concerns Days was held on Thurs. Oct. 14, 1993. This highly successful in- itiative demonstrates clearly the desire of the school's administration and staff to build an even better mutual understan- ding which we hope will lead to higher motivation on the part of our students, greater school safety and ere reduction of potential tem through the gain- ing of a greater apprecia- tion of all of the cultural views in our school com- munity. It is also an expectation that all students will gain from the experience and, most especially, that those individuals who represent their home form class groups as a representative andior spokesperson will develop a highly useful communications skill for both employment and adult life. The Common Concern Day focussed on the recent- ly developed Pearson Code of Behaviour and had as its focus excellence and achievement - "Being the Best You". Students were well prepared in adv#nce for this day. A special timetable was provided which allowed for an ex- tended home form class period, students selected thir home form represen- tative for the discussion at hand, and all home form classes across the school participated in related ac- tivities under the direction of their home form teachers. The ensuing lively discussion was initiated by the student identification and explanation of the Pearson Code of Behaviour for the value "Excellence and Achievement". The staff acknowledges that both teaching and lear- ning styles can be quite dif- ferent and home form teachers were free to develop their own ap- proaches in their classes. Useful suggestions were prepared for staff reference by the Pearson Professional Practice Committee. In each session, three students were employed to record the class discus- sion: one tabulated the class ideas on the chalkboard, another wrote the ideas on paper to prepare notes for the class representative to bring to the Common Concerns Council and the third stu- dent, the home form representative, listened carefully to the discussion and prepared to give a class report at the Council meeting. Much of the class discus- sion focussed on the many ways in which our new school timetable provides many opportunities for focussed tutoring so that each student's individual needs can be met. These tutorial periods held each day before and after school can involve remediation, catching up on missed work, upgrading assignments, personal counselling, enrichment (refining assignments/pro- jects), career discussions, the completion of missed/ alternate tests, group work, the diagnosis of a problem. Representatives from Grades 9 and 10 met with Mrs. Taylor, Pearson C.I. school principal, during period 2 that day and the representatives of Grades ll, 12 and OAC met during period 5. This is a new concept in communication at Pearson C. 1. and we seem to be off to an excellent start.
