Berrill Sense and Nonsense from Assorted Sources We talk of the four corners of the earth, then swear that the world is round. There's a cult who believe that this same world owes them a living but some of the most disappointed people are those who do get what's coming to them. And many who talk about getting away from it all have never been 'with it' in the first place. We're informed that a fine is a tax for doing wrong: but a tax is a fine for doing well. And that many people have the right aim in life but never get around to pulling the trigger. Forty years ago a man finished a day's work and needed rest. Today he needs exercise. i J We're often reminded to count our blessings -- but can usually recall our troubles with greater clarity; thev've been so well rehearsed. Those who make no effort to acquire knowledge -- work much harder to conceal their ignorance. The one who professes to be an athiest gives the loudest cry of "God help me' when peril strikes; suggesting that, in darkness, even an unbeliever half-believes. Or, could it be a dare? "If there is something out there, prove it, now!" From a large parcel one was salvaging a portion of very expensive wrapping when a voice called laughingly 'Oh, come! Rip it off, it's only paper!" Right. But who goes dashing downtown on those days soon after the holidays to take advantage of the sales? Sales of just such things. When we make a mistake there's always a logical alibi. When someone else makes it -- it's invariably on that one-way street -- NO-Excuse. Yet, a man makes no mistakes does not usually make anything. Conversation is the art of telling people a little less than they want to know -- to tell the whole story could be called gossiping. Often the greatest enemy of present happiness is past happiness too well remembered. A woman is as old as she looks to a man who likes to look at her. An egoist is one who plays too great a part in his own life. We' have people who live without working and, sadly, too many who work without living. ' It has been noted that in sending telegrams people pay to have the words 'Please and Thank you' included but will neglect to use them when it doesn't cost a cent. God measures a man by putting a tape around his heart instead of his head. How we use today will determine how tomorrow uses us. Big words don't always convey big thoughts. There aren't any rules for success that work unless we do; and enthusiasm is really the only kind of fuel that will keep the fires of ambition burning. Beaten paths are for beaten men -- not forgetting that a rat race can only be won by a rat. Love is an act of faith, and whoever is of little faith is of little love. And everybody has to be somebody to somebody to be anybody. 25252525252525252525252525252525252525255 2525252525052505252 525252525252 52 525252 5252 5252525252 585252 5252525252 52525252525252 52525252 52525252525252525250525252525252525252525252 585252505 525e 525000! : 5252525252505 50 0252525252525 50525252525252525252525252525252525252525252525252525252525252! tq New Deadlines Display Advertising: 3 P.M. - MONDAY, Week of Publication Classified Advertising: Accounts of meetings, sports reports, etc. 6 P.D. - MONDAY.

Graham announces that twenty-seven Ontario Pro- vincial Police Officers trained in Indain culture graduated from a two week course at Lakehead Univer- sity on August 30th. De- = signed to equip them with the capability to take good law enforcement practices into some of the province's re- mote Indian Reserves, the course was administered by the OPP Training and Deve- opment Centre but relied Will supply sand, gravel for five years For the next five years, Russell Lindsay of Whitby will supply sand and gravel to Port Perry and the former township of Reach. Scugog council decided to enter the agreement last week after Mr. Lindsay said the materials would come from a gravel pit in Lot 6, Concession 3 in Reach. This pit will replace one the township used in Uxbridge. i When the agreement runs out in October, 1979, the town has agreed to level off the pit area and replace the top soil. $100 granted. - firemen If an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, Port Perry should have fewer fires next year. Township council decided last week to give the fire department $100 to use dur-- ing Fire Prevention Week in October. Fire Chief Jack Cook said the money will be used for fire prevention posters, a film show, an open house at the fire station and a number of other things. Mr. Cook stressed the im- portance of Fire Prevention Week and said it is important + to make people aware of how fires start. "It is a must that people become more informed and more aware of fire preven- tion," the chief said. "There is more and more property lost to fire every year." AS LONG AS OUR STOCK LASTS PHONE 985.7141 heavily on the expertise of lay people well-versed in knowledge of the Indian people. Four important criteria were laid down by the work- ing group -- "Getting the right people; training them appropriately; deploying them productively; and assisting them to carry out their duties." Three corporals an twenty-four constables were chosen for this arduous and difficult task. Each man a volunteer, they were selec- ted on the basis of perfor- mance in psychological ex- aminations and interviews. This new field demands more than routine police duties. He must also be counsellor, advisor, and have such social skills that he can become an asset to the whole reserve com- munity. Before these men could stride into this specialist area of Law Enforcement they had to be 'acquainted with the rudiments of the Indian Heritage, its culture and current social attitude of. and towards the Indian. The first phase of the reserve policing project will go into operation on 22 reserves in Northwestern Ontario. As the programme passes this threshold it will expand into Northeastern Ontario using men trained in the latest Lakehead Course. Big Trout Lake, Sandy I.ake and Fort Hope are only accessible by air. Patrol Announcement Gordon R. Sharwood, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Guaranty Trust, is pleased to announce the appointment of Mr. Charles Stewart Mc- Tavish to the Oshawa Advisory Board of the Company. : Mr. McTavish is Presi- dent of C. Stewart Mc- Tavish Ltd., owner and operator of the Canadian Tire Associate Store in Bowmanville and a Di- rector of the Bowman- ville Chamber of Commerce, as well -as other community organi- zations. Mr. McTavish's appointment reflects Guaranty Trust's ongoing commitment to the' de- velopment of the Greater Oshawa area. Guaranty Trust is one of Canada's largest trust companies with total assets under administra- tion in excess of $1.5 billions. Cobins will be built in these "settlements so that police air-crew can stay over for several days. They will also be able to make fly-in visits ,to a number of other remote reserves during the regu- lar and continual patrols. The fly-in patrol will be condueted by an all-police crew in an OPP De Havil- land Otter leased from the ministry of natural resour- ces. Based in Sioux Look- out, the crew's function will * be regular reserve policing. Patrol cabins will be erec- ted in several other reserves including Gull Lake, Isling- ton and Shoal Lake. They will each be used as a base for full-time work with the WES PLUMBING - Policemen pass Indian culture course* people of the reserve. The grassy narrows re- serve will be the site for a new detachment, complete with living accommodation for one corporal and three constables. Twenty-seven experienced policemen will soon be fac® ing the most challenging endeavour of their police careers. These men will meet and talk with the people. They will try to curtail - social 'problems. They will try to establish a respect for order, borne of social consciousness rather than fear of deterrent. They will try to attack crime, vio- lence and social maladies hefore they are conceived. LANE HEATING - - ELECTRIC - 1" PORT PERRY 983-2413 OFFICE -- RESIDENCE PRICED ATS RIGHT!
