I did this in order f0 becomie fully iniorineci as to the attitudes andi opinions of the members of City Council with respect to the pro- poseci racewiay. 2. 1 have been in almost dailY contact; with the solicitfo for Cantrac (Nosport), and have worked in close co-opertion wiîth fthc Cantrac officiais. 3. Dr. Irwin Fincburg, presi- dent of Cantrac, bas been to sec Ill on a number of occasions and 1 have assurcd hi of my full co- operation in protccting the inter- csts of Mosport. 4.

Curviygifte-dtheir ecmployes with leather or suecde jackets or Our kindergarten bas been in operation for three nionths and mnany chianges have taken place for pare~It and student alike. Just wh'at would a ehild do at Kindergarten you may wonder! 11e will certainly enjoy himself, as he iearns the beginning of the 3 rs. For examrple; piaydow was just something to mness with. You sure could get it allover. Now the sanie child bas observed- sonieone has moulded a chair, so it would be a good idea ta make a table, and say, how about making people for it? A sheet of paper was good for scribbling but now it cat! be' transformed into a Christmas card, or maybe 1 ean show my teacher ho~w I help dad- dy, by drawin.g ocar house. There's me witha shovel iii the high snow. My kitty is heiping toio! Sc through fun we learu from ecli oVher, guided by the teach'ler, soc~ jal habits and limits We hv seen what happens when an, ap- pie is peeled, then cooked. It tastes lik 'e applesauce ,mommny makes.' It's fun to make, Chris t- mas cookies and decoratiotis for our Christmnas tree. A visit to the firehail was a real eye open- er. Y1hose hoses squýirt lots of water; firemen have big boots; the siren makes a iot of noise, tihe, fireniwn proteet us. The big highlighi for the ehildren was Santas. visit at scbool during flicir Party. In this sihort time there has been a delightful improvemeiit of the behaviour of ble hebid-ren at home. Hlere Is a smayof wh-at parenits have noticed. "Mýy chiid takes pride i his appýear- ance - more tolerant of othe)Crs - feels at ease with ther chuIdren - iniproved mann-iers." One moth- er summed it ip s,, conipletely by sayinrg "ibrgre as brought to my child pleasure ahid deliglit ilearniin." Not on.ily the ohI1drent have di5- covered wider horizons, but bofli teacher and parent have diiscover- ed childreii with learnig diffi- culties. A few echildien have need of speech hrapy, another has a, mîId forni of tone deafness. Both pr«blenis can be aided be- fore hey handicap the ebjîdren to the point where they los'e al desire to learu. Sonie chîldren who have no compatimonthieir orwn age at home are learning how to share and co-operate with others. Each child has his/her own prollenis and kinidergarten meets each onie with understand- ing. 1Here is a recipe we use for play-doh. It keeps well in tihe fridge and is economnical to use. Use a piece of cardboard or an old plastic place mat to help the child confine it to one area. Af- ter a few times youir child can bc respohisible fo)r setting up bis own-area and replacinfg piay-doh and tools back in thecir plade. It's easier on mother and teacihes the child responsibility. 3 cups pastry flour 1 eup sait 1 tsp lard or shortenhnIg 1 scant ciip water Method: Sift dry ingredients to- gether eut in lard as you woul4 pastry.
