Bicycle safety' The increased popularity of bicycles is once'agaîn becom- ing apparent on Ontario high- ways. Unfortunately the in- créased popularity of these vehicles has also resulted in increased bicycle collisions, deaths, and injuries to bicyc- In 1971 there were 459' collisions in Ontario involving bicycles. These collisions re- ýulted in the death of 34 cyclists and injuries to an- other 376. In 1972, collisions increased to 504 causing death to 35 cy-clists and injuries- to 422 others. Every effort should be made by alI, includîng the parents of youthful cyclists and police agencies, to reduce collisions involving bicycles. In the past, the police have been somewhat reluctant to lay traffic charges against youthful bicycle offenders. However, it' must be rememb- ered that, many of, thèse same youngsters are being kîlled when in collision with auto- mobiles. For the past six years, the. Newcastle Detach- ment bas investigated at least one fatal bicycle accident each year. A bicycle is a vehcile and the operator should be treated in much the same manner as the operator of a motor vehicle. Since bicycle acci- dents have become a serious problem, in the Province, strict enforcement will be levied against cyclist offend- ers for infractions of the rules of the road and bicycles considered to be unsafe for the road. It should be taken into consideration by alI, that bicycles are prohibited by law from operating on controlled access highwý,ays, eg: Hwy 401, and 400 HEATHER REBEKAH LODGE No. 334 taters; Dic-taters; Spec-taters Sweet-taters.

Actual rate of gain figures are only meaningful if they can be compared to some standard. The INDEX on rate of gain during the test period. Actual rate of gain figures are only meaningful if they can be compared to soîne standard, The INDEX on rate of gain accompli.shed this by compar- ing the individual bull's per- formance relative to the average performance of the group in which it was fed and to 'the average of the, breed. The INDEX for breed average is 100 and consequently the INDEX readily indentifies whether or flot a'young bull's ability to transmit growth to its off spring is above or below breed average and by how much. The range of. INDICES for young bulîs which have been station tested and index- ed to date is from 75 to 135.

Young people between the ages of 12 and 20 still have until May lst to enroil in a club of their choice for 1973. There are a wide range of clubs to choose from this year, so that we can meet interests of as many young people as possib- le.

Create Harmony by truth and co-operation. Sister Slater in her address gave us many things to think about and practicle. One point she stress- ed was for every officer and member to read and study the constit -ution. If every member would read the Constitution they would understand the rules and regulations which woulId be a great help to the officers and it would be much more interesting_ for members at regula-r meetings. .After a presentation to the President the Heather Officer vacated the chairs and May- belle officers closed Lodge in a very dignified mnanner.
