12 The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, Dec. 5, 1973 National 4-H1 Conference Report by Dave La rmer (Editor's note: Dave Larmer was one of the eight Ontario 4-H Delegates selected 10 take part in the National 4-H- Conference and il is indeed an honor when a 4-H memn'ber is selected 10 take part in Ibis Conference( From November 10-15, I hnd the pleasure of being housed in the Royal York Hotel in Toronto, along with,87 other 4-H'ers froîn the rest of Canada and the United States, attending the National 4-H Conference. This Conference is sponsored every year by the Canadian Council on 4-H Clubs whicb is made up of many of the major companies and organizations in Canada. Dur- ing the five days of the Conference, we toured such places as Niagara Falls, the Ontario Science Centre and the Royal Winter Fair, as well as attending a National BYAM PLUMIING & IIEATING and AIR CONDITIONING TYRONE, ONTARIO @ul Phone 263-2650 U Hockey League game in Toronto. In between doing- these tbings, we held discus- sion periods,,wbere we dis- cussed views on 4-H and how the 4-H Progmnm is carried on in the rest of Canada and the United States. We had no worries about starving while at the Confer- ence, as we were trented f0 a series of banquets sponsored by the members of the National 4-H Council. At one of these banquets, 1 even got, b sit beside Mr. William Stew- art, the Minister of Agricul- ture and Food. We also hnd some free ime and il was spent doing such tbings as touring downtown Toronto, touring uptown Toronto, rid- ing the streelcars till two o'clock in the morning, sing- ing tili your Ibroat was sore, or just talking with other delegates. Little tbings sucb as sleep, weren't even tbougbt about, whicb could help ac- count for the cold I brought home with me. Afler il was ail over, everyone was unentbused about leaving so soon, Ibis was partly due 10 the fact, we eitbem had 10 go back 10 school or 10 a job, but also hecause we had met a whole new set of friends, wbom we had jusl started 10 know. 1974 Famm Machinery Outlook An unusual market situation brought about by several factors bas resulted in the sale of farm machinery in excess of 25 per cent over 1972 in Ontario. Factors influencing the machinery market aren't changing quickly, 50 it seems logical that in 1974, farmers will experience similar short- ages, noted Hal Wright, Sec- retary-Manager of the Ontario Farm Machinery Board. Mr. Wright points out that many manufacturers are expanding their production facilities and-or laying on additional work shifts to increase their production., Any gains manu- TOWN 0F NEWCASTLE PLANNING DIRECTOR The new Town of Newcastle, a recent amalgamation of the- former Town of Bowmanville, Village of Newcastle and Townships of Darlington and Clarke, with an 'area of 230 square miles and a population of 28,000, withîn the new Regional Municipality of Durham, requires a qualified and experienced municipal planner.

These and other factors combined witb increased farm income, reduces availability of new units and could limit machinery production in 1974. Mr. Wright advises farmers to order their 1974 macbinery requirements four to.-six montbs prior to tbe date of need and te, make a firm commitment to the dealer with a down payment to ensure delivery. Used mach- inery bas also been moving well, but even good, used equipment bas become bard to find with some deaiers lots practically empty. The only alternative for farmers considering buying new farm implements is to plan ahead.

"Bill" was born in Manches ter, England, coming 10 Cana- da as a small boy and was employed in farm work. At the age of 18 he volunteered for service in Wold Wnm One and took bis training with the 136tb battalion going overseas in 1916. He was awarded the Military Medal for Bravery whiie engaged in baIlle on the right of Hill 70 near Lens in France. He returned to Cana- da in 1919. During World War Two he again served bis country and joined the Vete- Jealous'y- The UgIy Spirit The tenth anniversary of the assassination of John F. Kennedy produced many, interesting newspaper and magazine articles. One particular article caught my attention. The writer stated that John Kennedy, because of who be was and bis style of life, raised upfeelings of envy in the hearts of many people. Kennedy was young, handsome, intelligent, wealthy and powerful and to top it off he was married to a beautiful woman. It was inevitable that he would be hated by certain people because of their envy and jealousy. Assassination thus grew out of tbis spirit of envy. The object of envy had to be destroyed. Had not Lee Harvey Oswald killed Kennedy someone else would have pulled the trigger. The chilling thought we are lef t with is that another attractive Kennedy is on his way to the Presidency and he could well be the target for another assassin's bullet. The spirit of envy and jealousy not oiily kilîs attractive Presidents, but it causes much wreackage in human relationships. Marriage relationsbips are destroyed by jealousy. Suspicion and possessîveness are the ugly attitudes that spring from jealousy in the marriage relationship. Children have jealous feelings when tbey feel that tbey have been cheated of gifts and affection. Often the jealous rivaîries of cbildbood become the hardened resentments of aduit life. Jealousies flare up among people who work together. Much envy cornes to life when promotions are given and preferential treatment is offered to some and not f0 others. Jealousy is the root cause of much of the discord and conflict of office and shop. The spirit of jealousy is an ugly spirit. People who are full of envy and jealousy are like a flower that bas witbered and died. The beauty of the person bas been marred. We can however, do sometbing'about this ugly spirit. Too of ten we are not aware of its presence in our lives. We deny that we are jealous and envious of others. The first step in dealing with this dangerous bang-up is to remove the blinders and to become aware of our jealousies. We need to know when we are jealous and wbo the object of our jealousy is. It is'hard to look at the ugly spirits of our lives, but we will neyer sweep them out until we see that tbey are there. Sensing our jealous spirit is only haîf the battle; getting rid of that ugly spirit is the real issue. We can learn how fromn one of the greal men of the Bible. John the Baptist was a great leader of men. His preaching attracted large crowds. Many people thougbt he was the long awaited Savior. But when Jesus came on the scene John's popularity began to wane. The crowds left him and went to Jesus. John no doubt felt the jealous stirrings in bis heart, but bis humble spirit pushed out the ugly spirit of jealousy. "'He must increase, 1 must decrease", expressed the beautiful spirit of bis life. Love for those we envy. support for those we want to put down, kindness toxward those we want (o criticize can cast away the ugly spirit of jealousy. God can give us this new and'beautiful spirit.

Local builder William Vroomn (pictured holding the school's 1897 corner plaque) coaches the hockey team at Durham Christian High School and he decided if the boys really wanted to get new sweaters for their teamn he would put them to work for a day and trade them their wages for a new set of sweaters. So, bright and early Saturday morning, November 29th, two dozen young men turned up ready to work and enthusiastically set about tearing down the old sehool. Clarke Township by-laws made the demolition of the 76-year-old building necessary.
