Poten fiai (From Page One) the landscape on the canvas, lie told the audience in the Trinity United Churcli that is was basically just a pleasure, and fun to do for him. Another belief which could prompt others to begin dab- bling in oul paints is that perserverance and enthusi- asm are able to compensate for a lot of talent and inspiration. As a former teaclier with a wide academic background, the job of painting lias been a fairly recent discovery of Mr. Labelle. t was only a short time ago that lie awoke one morning witli a yearning to paint and the conviction that lie could be an artist, lie said. Now, the 42 year-old artist says that it is a matter of discovering something tliat lie can recreate in a landscape painting, Canadians Unaccepted Altliougli a number of Can- adian' artists have gained international attention in re- cent years, the trend. in Canada today often prevents them from achieving success in their own country, the,, painter saîd. Artists sucli as Clarence G a gnon and Jean-Paul Lem-ieux< liad ta establish th!eir reputationi in France, the United States and othier for- eign countries before tliey were accepted as successful serious artists in Canada, lie added. The Quebec native is optim- istic that painting will gain a wide-spread following in tlie future. With the increase of leisure hours available to people, lie foresees art as an area in whicli they can use free-time creatively and constructively. $4.5 Million (From Page One) have two sets of numbers on tliem, the regular five-digit ticket number and series number combination as well 1 63 Simcoe St. S.

Reeve who lias lad a cold. Miss Flemnming lias been staying for some time with the Kellogg family and lias been sharing in the choir while here. The choir antlem. was 'Praise the Lord", as always an inspirational part of the service. The thougît for the dhildren made use, as it often does, of a current happening and this time referred to the inauguration of the president of the United States last week, and the implications its relig- ious nature will have on the world for the future. The children's hyrnn was also "Praise the Lord", but entire- ly different from the choir's anthem. -Things do happen in Churcli", was the topic of Rev. R. Bartlett's sermon based on words in the 73rd psalm, some of which are "Lt seemed to me a wearisome task, until I went into the sanctuary of God, tIen 1 perceived their end." He received some -of the great happenings, sudh as the an- nouncement of the Messiali, and the lives of great men who lad received their inspiration for- greatness in a dhurci service., Ushers for the morning were Messrs. Ron Brima- combe, Carroll Nichols, Glen Buttery and son Brian. Mr. and Mrs. Eric Oliver, son Robert and Paul Hoskin of Waterloo and Peter Hoskin of Bowrnanville spent the week- end with Mr. and Mrs. A. Thorndyke.

Karvonen of Scarborough visited with senior members of their familles here on Tliursday and Friday respect- ively. 1The usual aumber of birds are visiting the feeders, but one blue jay lit a window near a feeder with sucli force it was killed instantly. A few cow birds were around one day, certainly not our favourite birds, but it was a pleasure to see two lien pheasants cross the deep snow on the lawn one day last week. It is great weather for skiîng, snowmo- biling and walking over the snowy bills to the north. The walking is made easier in the snow packed trails of tlie machines. One evening last week a neiglibour, while walkiniglier dog, was amazed to see a skunk ploughing a patli through deep snow. Caretakers (From Page One) memorandtum, of agreement following discussions yester- day. "This morning is the crucial morning," he said. Could Retura Today He stated that if the membership of local 1206 agrees to a new settlement, the caretakers, cafeteria workers and bus drivers could be back on the job some time today. He added that if the union workers 0K a new, contract, there is a possibîlity that the school board could approve the agreement at the regular school board meeting Thurs- day nigit. He said that lie was not at liberty to discuss details of the possible settlement but if botli sides corne to an agreement, the details may be announced af ter the school board meeting tomorrow evening. Sudh an agreement would end the first strike in the short history of the Northiumberland and Newcastle Board of Edu- cation. The board was first organized in 1969. Schools Normal But, in spite of local 1206's legal strike, scliools in the area seemed to be functioning normally yesterday and Mon- day. School principals contacted yesterday indicated that the halls and washrooms may have been a little less tidy because of the strike but otherwise, it was classes as usual. "Naturally, it is a little inconvenient,'" said Principal AI Witherspoon at Clarke Higli School. He noted that there had been a few episodes in which toilets liad been plugged and overflowed but lie said that 95 per cent of students were co-operative and were lielping to keep the scbool running smoothly. At Courtice Secondary School, Principal Harry Brad- ley said that attendance was normal for the 950 students enrolled. He said there were no serious problems and described yesterday as normal. Cafeterias were closed at both the Clarke and the Courtice scliools because Northumberland and New- castie Board of Education workers are employed in both facilities. "We're in a rather fortunate situation because we're in the midst of exams," said Princi- pal Earl Wolff at the Bowman- ville High Sehool. He said there were no regular classes and students were leaving the scliool after writing their exams. Night scliool programs across the Northiumberland- Newcastle district were closed temporarily because of the strike. Cancer Soc. (From Page One) arn certain that with the knowledge and inspiration gained'from this conference and with the strong record of co-operation tliat we have experienced in our commuait- ies of Bowmanville and the former townships of tJarling- ton and Clarke in the past, we will be able.to readli our 1977 objective. Eliminating, cancer is a community responsibility and every citizen can share in tliat goal by supporting cancer research."'
