That's the way the owners would like it to stay. The owners, incidentally, are just as unique as the store itself. "We're two city girls who came out to make it big in the country," laughed Debbie Bourne, who, along with her partner Ann Dreslinski have really made a name for themselves themselves in the area. "Seriously, though," Debbie Debbie continued, "I'm from Toronto and Ann is a New Yorker but we just love Orono, everyone's so friendly."

Irreplaceable Milk. Wear A Moustache. Only Love Beats Milk. Thank You Very Much Milk. All of the above slogans have been used at one time or another in the Ontario Milk Marketing, Board's efforts efforts to raise the popularity of a beverage which has been described as nature's most nearly-perfect food. . Krista McHolm, the Durham County Dairy Princess, Princess, told members of the Bowmanvillc Rotary Club last week that much of the - milk advertising is aimed at teens and young adults in the i2 to 17 age group or in the 18 to 29 age range. "We're trying to get these people hooked on milk while they're young," she explained. That's because it is hoped that their habits of drinking milk will carry on in later years. But she also reminded Rotarians that consumption consumption of milk is important for every age. "Older adults" ip 'the,! 3Ù to ,59 -age group should partake of two sejrv4 ings of milk products or milk daily. Studies show that consumption consumption generally decreases decreases among the older adults even though they need milk to protect themselves themselves against osteo porosis (brittle bones) and generally generally maintain their level of nutrition. The milk marketing board also advertises the benefits of milk as an ingredient ingredient to cooking through calendars sent to 2 million persons annually as well as other cooking promotions. And advertising is attempting attempting to develop an increase increase in the use of milk among the ethnic communities. communities. Milk producers pay for the promotional campaigns through a surcharge on their milk sales. The Ontario Milk Marketing Marketing Board spends in the neighbourhood of $7.6 million million on market expansion, while the Dairy Bureau has a similar budget amounting to $7 million, Miss McHolm said. Ontario's farmers produce produce over 2.3 million litres of milk annually. The average average Ontario farmer has 40 cows, each producing over 5,000 litres of milk annually. Providing the public with information on the benefits of milk is just one of many ways in which the Ontario Milk Marketing Board does its job. It also works to ensure ensure that dairy farmers' incomes incomes meet the cost of man agement, investment and labor. Moreover, the work of the OMMB ensures a- stable market for the product. product. Media releases, participation participation in consumer and agricultural agricultural shows, publications, publications, and a well-known Ontario Ontario Dairy Princess Program Program are other ways in which the OMMB carries the milk message to consumers. Krista McHolm was introduced introduced last week by Don ' Welsh, a Rotary Club member and dairy farmer and she was thanked by John Finlay, district agricultural agricultural representative and member of the Bow- manville Rotary Club.

X j i iK- vD: jV:;i •Nigh;- •The image of Ontario's government-appointed censor censor board- constantly trimming trimming films with scissors is far from the truth. In fact, only a small percentage percentage of material screened by the Film Review Review Board ends up on the proverbial cutting room floor. "Of all the films screened at the Censor Board, less than five per cent are ever cut," said Donna Fairey, a member of the board. Mrs. Fairey was the guest speaker last week at the regular Monday evening meeting of the Bowmanyille Lions Club. . , She is currently the chairman chairman of the Northumberland Northumberland and Newcastle Board of Education and a school trustee for the Town of Port Hope. But it was in her capacity capacity as a member of the Ontario Film Review Board that she spoke last week to the Lions. Members of the board spend a typical day screening screening four films in a screening room which resembles a small movie theatre except for the fact that reading Ibur Forests... Your Future lamps are attached to each seat so that board members can make notes of what they are watching. A clock on the wall tells the number of minutes and seconds that have elapsed during the film and the film reel. This allows the board member to record the precise precise portion of the film in which certain events or dialogue occur. Each member fills out his or her own report on the film and a consensus is reached as to the appropriate appropriate classification. At the end of the day, the decisions by the smaller panels go to the full board which will make a final ruling. Based on pre-established guidelines, the reviewers will decide if a film should be approved as Family, Parental Parental Guidance, Adult Accompaniment, Accompaniment, or Restricted. Restricted. Some films, of course, are rejected entirely entirely because of their violence violence or explicit sex. About three per cent of films have scenes cut by the board. Mrs. Fairey assured the Lions Club that a position on the Ontario Film Review Board is by no means an opportunity opportunity to view all the latest popular Hollywood releases.

Mrs. Fairey revealed that thè Ontario Film Review Board may face some changes in the near future, depending on, decisions from the new government of Premier David Peterson. However, the current board is, itself, thé result of a recent re-organization which took place in December December of 1984 in order to see that the board was a better better reflection of community standards. At that time, membership was increased from seven to 35 and members from across Ontario were included. included. In the past, membership membership had tended to be confined to individuals from the Toronto area. Board members (with the exception of chairman and vice chairmen) may select the days they are available to screen movies. They receive receive an honorarium of $85 per day. Mrs. Fairey suggested that about the only alternative alternative to the current method of controlling films and videos videos would be to allow the police to handle censorship. censorship. At the moment, though, the police do not have that responsibility. "There isn't sufficient power that the police have to stop some of the pornographic pornographic material going into the community," she said. And, while the arts community community sometimes disagrees disagrees with alleged "censorship" "censorship" by the Film Review Board, Mrs. Fairey notes that far more requests are received by the board for the tightening of rules. "Until someone comes along with a better idea for handling film...then I, for one, support the Ontario Film Review Board," she said.
