Bench warrant, wns issued for Stepben St. Denis. More Reasons F or Boy",cott On Coffée "When it comes to coffee, why flot quit instend of boycotting? " suggests Agatha M. Thrnsb, MD., director of Pnthology Labs in Columbus, Georgia. "With prices soar- ing, now is tbe ideal time to quit drinking coffee. In addi- tion to economic reasons, there are sound benlth reasons for kicking the caffeine habit." Three major diseases are aggravated by caffeine, nc- cording to Dr. Thrash-beart trouble, peptic ulcers, and diabetes or hypoglycemia. Canada's most prevalent disease is benrt trouble, whicb is linked witb high blood cholesterol. Even one cup of coffee daily over a period of time is likely to maise your blood cholesterol. If n person regularly drinks one to five cups of coffee a day, bis risk of having a henrt attack is 60 per cent igber than if he drinks nonle. -The second prevalent dis- ense that can be caused by caffeine is peptic ulcers. Ulcers in cildren have be- come-more-common as the use of caffeinated beverages, such as cola drinks, has become more widesprend," snid Dr. Tbrash. "The third disease that is related to caffeine is diabetes, or bypoglycemia, two faces of the same disease. One of every five to six people you see already bas diabetes, and millions more are on the way. Caffeine specifically injures the pancreas and make dia- betes and bypoglycemin much worse," she claimed. People once thought that gold could be dissolved in dew. PROVINCIAL COURT Mispen This sad old world is chock-full of problems crying out for solution. In the area of human health alone - even in well-cared-for Canada, it is difficuit to decide which of the myriad canvasses should get the major portion of our financi al assistance. Thus, it is with some disgust that we witness the tremen- dous campaign to save the cute littie, baby harp seals in the Gulf of St. Lawrence. Don't get us wrong. Personally we detest any sort of suffering particu- larly the sort inflicted through neglect and outright, sadistic cruel- ty on helpless animais. t is sad, indeed, to realize that a world-wide demand for seal fur has perpetuated an industry on which a certain segment of the Canadian and Norwegian population has become dependent. But let's get down to common sense. There is neyer a word said about the suffering inflicted upon the animal kingdom by commercial fishermen - and it is unlikely that the average fish hurts less when it dies. Why is there no organized protest 'about the trapping of muskrats? At least a harp seal dies i ckly. A trapped muskrat may thrash around in a trap for hours or even days before the release of death. Have you ever seen anyone spitting in the eye of an elderly Report from Queen 's Park by Doug Moffatt MOP.P. One of the things that one learns ia pelitics is te accept smnll victeries and successes. This week I have had twe small successes whicb came about in a strange wny. Some weeks ago I received some questions frem people in tbe Orene area about rumeurs of tbe widening to 4 lanes of higbway 115 & 35. 1 wrete te the Minister of Transportation & Communications whe had bis staff very thereughly research the plans for this rend. A very lengtby personal letter frem the Minister laid eut the plans for tbis rond and reassured my constituents that their lives would net be disrupted because ne immed- inte changes are centem- plnted. The other success concerns changes in classified driver's licences. The change te a clnssified driver's licence is an important safety mensure being taken by the Gevema- ment and supported by most citizens. This change was made by regulatien net legis- lation (and therefere dees net ceme te the legisiature). 1 was amazed te discover that tbe regulatiens include n lengthy medical report for commer- cial drivers and an absolute exclusion for anyone tnking insulin. t seemed te, me that it should be only necessary for a physician te certify tbe health of the driver and tbat any informatien should be absol- utely confidential and that persens taking insulin sbould MucDonald Ford's Trucks of the Week! 1975 Foird %/ Ton Pick-up' V-8 engine, automatic transmission,, radio and cap.

The Sym bol of Participation As work on the Durham Region Participation House gets inte full swing, the symbol of the preject will prebably beceme a familiar sight. The Participation House symbol shewn above bas been explained in the fellowing way: Tbe sun represents a yeung man or weman. The cloud represents a permanent, severely crippling handicap, which stands between that person and a normal life. The smile shows that a handicapped person can stili participate in mnny of the piensant aspects of life as others know th11em if they have the proper facility and chance. Participation House was conceived, and is being built, to give the severely crippled person t-hat chance.

R. 1 Bowmanville checks out the plastic tubing used to tap trees at a sugar bush north end east of Enniskillen. A few trees near the Buttery farm are tapped by means of a bucket but most of the maples are attached to tubes which carry maple sap to a shed for boil- Between the' tree and the breakfast waffles or pan- cakes, maple syrup travels a long wny. Some people probnbly think maple sap is nlways collected in pails attached te tbe trees and boiled in cast iron pots until it turns te syrup. That metbod works, of course, and it is stili used especially by the amateur maple syrup maker with only a few trees and pails. But the area's only com- mercial maple syrup pro- ducers use n pipeline system to gather sap at a sugar bush north and east of Enniskillen. Dave Buttery, the son of Kny and Ted Buttery, of R. R. 1 Bewmanville explained re- cently that over a mile of' plastic tubing is attncbed te trees on conservation autbor- ity property near their farm. Every spring, mature trees are wired for syrup, with the number of taps on ench maple depending on the diameter of the tree. A maple ten inches la diameter may be tnpped once, and for each additional five Rezoning For Orono Arena The rezoning of land for n new amena in Orono was approved' last week in n special meeting of Newcastle council. Council met briefly on Tuesdav evening, April 5, te pass the re-zenin'g by-law. This action would nllew the construction of a new arena and gmndstand cemplex off Park St. in the village of Orono. However the by-law must be cleared by the Ontario Munic- ipal Board and property owncrs near the arena must also be notified of'the zoning changes. The new amena preposed for Orono would bave an entrance from the south end of the building. The entrance te the present amena is at the north. inches, tbe tree may be tapped agnin. In otber words, a large, 20 inch maple would have be tapped in three different places. Doesn't Hurt Tnpping the trees doesn't hurt them, the Butterys Say, because the sap is such a small part of wbnt is running through tbe maples every spring. The snp flows downbill from the trees, and into n storage tank near n shed on the Buttery property. Once piped into the shed, it passes through a series of evaporators where the sap is boiled down to syrup. t must be strained and packaged before it is ready for tbe table. Kay Buttery explains that the boiling process is a long one, witb fires started nrounid five in the morning, and- the boiling continued until nround ten o'clock at night. Nothing Added And from the tree te the table, there's notbing artific- ial added to genuine Canadian maple syrup. "It's abeut tbe only pure thing you can get, other than water from your well," Mrs. Buttery said. At the end of n days work,' there are enly about tbree gallons of syrup ready for the customer. It takes 30 te 35 gallons of sap to make just one gallon of syrup. Tbat's be- cause snp that coies from the maple trees isn't like syrup at nîl. They sny it tastes more like sugar flavored water and it must be concentrnted., Mrs. Buttery said a few weeks ago the yield this year is the best in tbe four years they've been collecting syrup at tbeir present home. About fifty gallons will be produced this year at the Buttery farm. Unfortunately, anyone thinking about buying some of the finished product is nlready too late for this seasen. Some of the Buttery's syrup was sold before it left tbe trees. Two weeks ago, they were completely sold out. "We're taking orders now for next year," Mrs. Buttery said., ing. At the other end of the pipeline (lower photo) the boiling syrup is skimmed. Ted and Kay But- tery expect to harvest about 50 gallons of syrup from land adjacent to their farm off concession nine, Darlington. Iniffgnation matron in her black Persian lamb coat? Those beautiful, kinky curis of fur came from the unborn baby of an astrakhan sheep - and the mother died along with the offspring. Do you often choke on a bit of roast beef because you suddenly remem- ber that a cattie beast had to die to satisfy your hunger? Do you know that there are many, many people of "6pagan" beliefs who neyer eat meat or flesh of any kindbecause they refuse to - be responsible for taking life? The great drama over the seal hunt has been brought about largely because television has disclosed the fact that, a baby seal is, in human terms, -cute and cuddly. Strangely enough the campaign against human abortion has failed to gain even a fraction of the dramatic media coverage that has been accorded to the seal slaughter. Is that because a human embryo is less attractive than a seal pup? No, we don't like the seal hunt either - perhaps because we have no personal desire to wear a seal coat. But the vast outlay of money spent to protest the actions of the sealers and the funds expeded by the news media to cover the protest, might be better spent on Easter seals for the benefit of crippled children; on the ever-urgent need for cancer research - or on a few thousand more CARE packages. - Wingham Advance - Times.
