2-Orono Weekly Times, Wednesday, June 13, 1973 orono weekly times Second Class Mail Registration Number 6368 Published every Thursday at the office of publication NOT SO FUNNY!! Provincial Agricultural Minister William Stewart being late for a meeting in Woodstock recently quipped that "If I hadn't been so chicken and used a government plane, I would have been on time.' The use of government planes by the Conservatives is under attack by the opposition and some irregularities have been uncovered. The general public has no axe to grind if the planes are used for provincial business but the use for private and family excursions is another matter and can only add another thorn in the side of the Conservatives in Toronto. The Premier of Ontario can be expected to use the plane while in provincial business and perhaps this can be extended to private use providing he pays to the Ontario Treasury the going rate for chartered flights. Anything less is taking advantage of the tax-payers. Nor is it enough to say, as the Premier has, that he pays for the use of the Plane and places sums of monies in a special account. To date little information has been given out pertaining to the private account or just how much this account totals. The opposition at Queen's Park are well within their right to pursue this imatter further and the Premier should by ail means disclose al information regarding the private use of the government plane. KEEP IN THE SWIM Summer water sports make the season a happy time yet through carelessness many tragedies occur. With an alarming 20 percent increase in drownings last year the need for people to learn and practise sane water practices is as great as ever. Learn and remember these important Water Safety tips. Follow these rules and get the best out of summer weekends and vacations. WHEN BOATING check your craft before setting sail or turning on the motor. Check and double check it. Take the winter rust off ail equipment; examine the anchor, the anchor line; inspect your government approved life jackets (make sure they still fit your growing children). Your weak or non-swimmer boat passengers should wear theirs. Check a late weather report before you set out on the water and take the radio with you to check weather reports at regular intervals. Precautions are the name of the game. WHEN SWIMMING OR PADDLING swim only in supervised areas when a lifeguard is on duty. Check the beach and water carefully for broken glass, rocks, holes. Twigs. thrown into the water will heip you to determine the strength of the current if thex:e is one. Small children and non-swimmers of any age must be watched ail the time when they are in or near the water. Never swim alone and never allow your children to swim alone. Use the buddy system. Don't let children chew gum or candies w.hile they are in the water. Inflatable toys are beach toys, not water toys. If any member of your family can't swim, resolve to have them learn this summer. There is no substitute for expert instruction and your local Red Cross Water Safety Service can tell you about the swimming programmes available in the area. This suimmer don't become just another drowning statistic. Keep in the Swim...with Red Cross Water Safety. Language for personal understan By Carole Ordonez As it is with the nations of the world very important to be able to communicate and thereby understand one an- other it is equally vital on a personal level. For we may think of ourselves and each individual, as a little nation unto itself. Each of these "little nations" has its own personality traits character- istic of itself, its own beliefs, its own misconceptions. There. fore, to iron out the problems of the world, first we must solve those areas of misund- erstanding one man to the next, and one man within himself. To start with first things first then, we begin with the individual "nation which con- sists of you, and you alone. You represent both the good and bad traits in your own liittle nation, you are compris- ed of all of the leading characters as well as the multitudes. You must self- govern your own nation with the "people" you have avail- able inside of you.$ YOUR NATURAL RESOURCES The "people" are symbolic of your "natural resources". What then are the natural resources of your nation, and as you draw from them during the times you confront life's experiences, are you careful to control and replenish the supply? Are you guilty of using a saying or thought to the point that it is no longer pertinent and completely misshappen..., or do you continually re-evaluate yest- erday's values, today's hopes, and tomorrow's dreams? Fortunately your natural re- sources, perhaps unlike the earths, are limitless. But, how effectively are they reached, brought to the surface and put to constructive use in the governing of your "nation"? VOUR TOOLS Your mind and the power of your "will' once set into motion are your tools. Their overseer is the "spirit" of the self which makes you, you. It is the "non-physical" and MOST IMPORTANT ASPECT OF YOUR NATION. All of these are the motivaters of your ideals, the outcome of which lies in their purity and force. To understand your ideals then, you must be able to communicate with your self. And how is this done? By thought and feeling. When our vocabulary is limited in breadth, we must rely on abstract feelings, the inter- pretation of which can only be as expressive and accurate as our vocabulary will allow. Thus, we often cannot under- stand ourselves, our feelings, our fears, our hopes our desires, because we simply cannot explain them effect- ively tô our self. Many misconceptions arise out of this lack of self-communic- ation, a great many of which could be solved by merely increasing our vocabluary and thereby our ability to express ideas to our self. It has often been said that Albert Einstein concluded that we as individuals use only a small part of our total internal capacity. Here was a brilliant man who tapped his own natural resources and so therefore knew that they existed.
