Metric gives her a headache as do all numbers By SUSAN Life Is becoming more complicated with every day that passes As though inflation unemployment and separatism were not giving more than enough problems to contend with they now sock to with a new headache metrication Now versus farenbdt I can hack I do not have to understand It just feel It If you stick your hand out of the front door and It

total of kilometres to unlta of tens multiply that by six and then round It off to the nearest five However when you are barrelling along a highway having already painstakingly decided what 100

is desperate and that they consequently passed me along to the grade merely so they would not have to face me for a second consecutive year My teachers obviously believed In sharing their tribulations in true sisterhood fashion or possibly the headmistress was only trying to prevent mass resignations from her staff It would appear that my whole life thus far like that of the majority has been manipulated It may be very and unpatriotic but I simply cannot get too enthusiastic over he subject of international trade Canada tlon while wrestling the horrors of highway traffic and simultaneously having to figure out what six limes eight may wont out to Of course there Is nothing like the thrill of self preservation on the roads for taking your mind off inflation unemployment separatism Quebec
