School I was of thousands of students who received bursaries to second language for six weeks during the summer In Ontario the program was open to students who hud com grade 12 For those students who may pi fin to attend the course next year here what to expect I arrived at the in Montreal on July and had my first taste of re sidence life I stepped out of the elevator on the third floor and saw about teenagers from across Canada clustered around a black and white TV set in the lounge Anyone know what time another world tomes on This question was nut with a sharp En franca Is from my monitorguide The T was later fixed so that it be changed from French station After the Initial period orientation the students became used to life in the residence For me this life meant many new experiences such as coed washrooms and showers fighting for an armchair in the salon and an abrupt switch from English to French whenever a monitor entered the room were rampant in the residence mat tresses were stuffed into closets doorknobs were greased balloons filled with water were dropped or thrown from one balcony to another and one student discovered his dresser drawer lined with plastic and filled with woter The drawer even housed a tln poisson- rouge named Raphael Students were divided Into classes according to their skill in oral and formal classes lasted three hours each mor ning

many new friends from across anada and I highly re commend the summer language bursary program to any students who want to improve their oral French The hardest part of the course was saying goodbye when the six weeks of parties ended Get it in writing Ontario s annual fall fairs are a traditional meeting place for gourmets and bargain hunters It also a place where a little indulgence can lead to headaches after the fair is over Every year our consumer services bureau receives a number complaints from people who want to know why the merchant who sold them an item won offer to exchange it for one of another color or give a refund said consumer minister Frank Drea They believe the 411hour period which applies to door todoor salesmen also applies to merchants who rent stalls at the fair and that just not true Door todoor salespeople must agree to cancel any contract without charge if the contract was signed in the consumer home and the request for rescission was made within hours of signing the contract COMMUNITY CALENDAR Scottish Country Dancers Tuesdays EtquMxig Community Centre beginning Sept No or drew necessary For call Blood Donor Clnic on Tuesday 11 at Legion Hall si might

there were a great many more deer fatally injured but never reported According to Smith Its difficult to get a true figure we know many animals are injured in accidents then run off only to die later of their Injuries There been an open season on deer in southern Ontario agricultural area in over years and Smith says public attitudes toward deer hunting have a lot to do with it seems people against hunting unless it deer Those big brown eyes really get them Archers are allowed to hunt deer but their effect on the herd is minimal Subsequently herds have increased in site and deer are wandering out onto highways Most deerear crashes occur under normal driving conditions Any solutions In they found that the typical fourfoot fence used to delineate interstate high way nghtsof way did not deter whltetalls To be truly effective higher fences would have to be used and there Is always the chance deer would still get onto the way and be fenced in instead of out In Michigan tried
