Councillor Lyall, determin- ed to prevent granting of an extension of the franchise to cover the remaining areas of the new Town of Newcastle, first suggested that the port- ion of the report should be deieted prior to council's acceptance of it, in order that a separate motion might deal with the subject. Mayor Garnet Riekard sug- gested to Mr. Lyall that the report, as it made no recom- mendation, be accepted and the Consumers Gas matter deait with under new business. Councillor 'Lyall is not in favor of any further extension of natural gas service within the Town of Newcastle.

Photo by Liz Armstrong WORLt 1D, TAKE MY SON -BY THE HAND My son ýstartedI school this week. It's going tobe strange and new to him for awhile. AndI wsh ouwould sort of treat Iim gently. You see, up to now he's been king of theroost. H-e's been bossof thé backyard. I have always been around to repairhiswouds and to soothe his feelings. But now - things are going to be different.p Yesterday mornfing he walked down the front steps,iwaved his.hand and started on a great adventure that will probably include joy and sadness, achievement and tragedy., Td live hais life in the world he has to live in will require faith and love and courage, so World, 1 wish you would sort of take him by his young hand and teach him .nthe things he will have to know. Teach' him- but gently, if you can. H1e will have to learn, I know, that not al men are true, that not ail men are just. Teach him that for every scoundrel there is a hero - that for every crooked politician, there is a dedicated leader thatfo every enemy, there is a friend. Let himo learn early that the bullies are the easiest people to ick. Teach him the wonder of boo(ýks. Give him a quiet time to' ponder the eternal mystery of birds in th sky, bees in the sun and flowers on the green hilI. Teach Ihilm that i t is, far more honorable to fail than-to cheat. Teach himi to have faith î in his ownideas, even if everyone else tells him'they are ýwrong. Try to gie y son the strength not to follow the crowd when everyone else is getting (oýn the bandwagon. Teach him to listen to ail men, but to filter ail he ~eas o ascreen of truth and to take only the good that cornes through. TUea ,,ch him to close his ears on the howling mob - and to stand and fight if h-e's right. Teach him gently, World, but don't coddle himn, because onfly the test of fire mtakes fine steel. This is a big order World, but see what you can do ... he's suchîr a nice littie fellow. -Author unknowni ~epnTird Floor>f Hol c sp5iital e nths losing Saved $10 The third floor of Memnorial Hospitailihas opened following a four wi pianned ciosure period.' four week ciosure, Juiy 261i August 25th inclusive,,% staged in order to assist NEWS HELD OVER A considerable amount news has been, held ov because it was impossible get it ail into type duringt short week.

He chose the wrong day to hit some of the areas here where ratepayers bail just received their, Town of Newcastle tax bis that were higher than last year. He was the first politician theY saw that day and really took it on the chin. lis PC colleague Mayor Garnet Rickard sh ould have warned hlm to canvass somewhere else until things cooled down here. BEARDED WALNUT - On Tuesday, Mrs. Olive Watson, 37 Nelson St., brought in haif a walnut shell she dug up in her garden. It obviously had been there for some time,' but the unusual p art was that you could see quite clearly what looked like the face of a littie, old man, with eyes, beard, etc. WRONG AGAIN - Among the errors that appeared last week were two that should be corrected. In the bits and pieces column, the correct police numbers were listed, we thought. Unfortunately, the gremlins were at work, so we repeat them. For emergencies cal 579-1234, for information ea'Il579-1520. Also, under, the 4-H Gardening Club pietures, the name of Nancy Hilîs should have been Nancy Wright. SELL THERMOMETERS- Members of Bowmanville Rotary Club will be doing a house to house canvass on Sept. 8th and 9th selling Celsius thermometers for $2 apiece. The money raised will be used to boîster their Community Work Fund. And you'll have to iadmit i t wil b e sort of comforting this winterý to be able to tell what the temperature is in Celsius as well as Fahrenheit. HAPPY FA CES - School children went back to the classrooms on Tuesday for the faîl term and we'd like to say it was a joy to see all the smiling faces on the way to'school, but those we noticed erossing King St. didn't seem too en- thusiastic. We'1l bet their mothers were the ones with the happy smiles. FAIR AT ORONO - Let's hope the weather stays nice and warm for the balance of the week for th annual Central Agricultural Society Fair that starts on Thùrsday at Orono Fairgrounds, with the OPP's Golden Helmets precision motorcycle squad in action. That's oniy one of the many features that will continue until Saturday.
