WINN1NG ThE PEACE At one point ln the Arab- Israeli war it appeared the Arabs were on the verge of being clobbered by the lsrae- lis. Since the ceasefire and the embargos on ail shipmients to Europe, Japan and the United States, the Arabs are certainly ln the drivers, seat. Now, we ln this country, the United States, the Netherlands and other are virtually ai their mercy if they continue deny- ing us their oul. It would appear that the cure to the situation is to persuade the Israelis to withdraw front ail Arab lands they have wonl ln the several wars Miss Wendy Anderson and Mrs. Betty McGregor.f IS ~ PE E Wide RanIosge of W inter Fashio sLS AQE - The final Warden's ha. frthe United Counities of Nrlubrrii t R., S, Au, d- '0 1u M Hall, port Ho0pe, when WAestoniBanister, the Écu Warený will be honored.

Sponsored by Tbe Order of tbe Eastern Star, it was certainly a fashion show that shouldni't bave been missed. With commentary notes by AileeniOsborne, the models gave a preview of the season's, most stunning fasbions from junior to matron styling. The models were not professionals but local business girls and homemakers who gave their time. Tbey were Mrs. Nellie Pring,- Mrs. Lillian Hooper,- Mrs.ý Betty McGregor, Mrs. Judy Crawford, Mrs. Darlene Welsb, Miss Wendy Anderson, and Miss Carol Wigbt. An appropriate background for the evening was set by Mrs. Jean Bilett, at the piano, and Mrs. Ede Cole, witb stage decorations. The show got off to a great start witb winter coats, from long ta short. They, featured wool fabrics in plaids, jacqu- ards and tweeds.* Fur was seeIn at collar and bemline. Short jackets in a combination of fur and suede were headliners in the junior showing, as well as tbe up-dated ski jacket.

Mrs. Vandermeer has been active in the 4-H club for nine years and has completed a total of 18 projects. Eighteen other pr- ýicial or county honors were awarded during the ail-day event, as well as ce. -icates of achievement and 4-H spoons.

We understand that later, in December., another banquet is1 planned to officially mark the dissolution. ON THE MOVE - In the near future, a two- storey brick house at the corner of Liberty North and Concession Streets will be moved to a new location on Ontario Street just south of Church, so if you happen to be driving along one of the streets and find yourself heading for a house, don't be surprised. It will'be quite a project, moving it several blocks, removing overhead wires and replacing them. COSTLY SHORTAGE - Schools throughout the area are facing a serious problem. The paper manufacturers have stopped making theoverlap- pingtype of toilet paper that fits in the neat ittie containers and always runs out just when you need more. So, the Board of Education is going to havelto spend about $4,000 to buy new containers or holders for rolîs or whatever is available these days. So long as the kids don't have to revert to using old Eaton's catalogues, we suppose they won't complain too much. TOO EAGER - We know there's a big demand for Chuck Smith's Mary Brown Virginia Fried Chicken these days, but on Saturday, after closing, apparently some misguided soul was soù anxious to obtain some that he broke a glass in, the front door with a rock. That's beingtoo eager. Police are searching for the rock heaver, who 'didn't get any chicken, but may get it in the neck if he's caught. CHAIRMAN 0F REFEREES - Reeve Ted Woodyard of Clarke Township will soon be out of a job as head of the, township, but right into another that could be quite demanding. He has been appoinited chairman of the Boards of Referees for the Ontario Regional Division of the Unemploy- ment Insurance Commission, particularly for the, Oshawa district. As an ex-Reeve hie isn't eligible to draw UIC benefits, so won't have to deal with his own case.

DIDN'T RA FINE PRINT This morning's announce- ment that the multinational oul companies have an exemption clause in their contracts that would enable themi to divert Canadian produced ail to other countries suffering from shortages leaves the federal government in an einbarr- assing spot. Apparently, the government's lawyers could- n't have read the fine print in the contracts. The result is that Canada is probably going to be in jnst about the same pition as the U.S. -this winter, with highter shortages ef oil than anticipated.
