2, -Orono Weeklv Times, Wednesday, Jun e », 1982 Qrono ~&tp~nt Pubbelied Every Wednesday a' the office of Publication Main Street, Orono Rov C. Forrester. Editor A Few Words of Thanks Ail too often we take for granted many of the services in our community without realizing that behind the service there are dedicated people committed in its provision in the interest of the public good. Such is the case of those services provided by Metnorial Hospital in Bowmianville where through the years many local citizens have served on the Board, the committees and the auxiliary with the full intent that this community would have the best possible heaith ser- vice that a hospital in this locality could provide. One such person who has piayed a big part in the provision of the service has to beJim Stutt of Orono who has completed twenty-four years on the Board and of the twenty-four years four have been as chairmian. There would be no doubt as to his dedication to the position he held throughout the years and Jim Stutt is quick to tell of the enjoymnent in being part of decision making at the hospital. There is fulfilment in knowing you have done the best possible. We in the commi-unity do owe Jimn Stutt a vote of thanks for giving his time and his talents to a service in the public interest. "Thank you Jim". In Whose Interest? Another budget proposai has now been presented by the liberal government in Ottawa as a long- term cure to Canada's economnic ilis. It is flot our inten- tion to comment on the contents of the budget or its ef- fectiveness one way or another. This has aiready been donc by hundreds of wrîters with as many different opi- nions. We are concernied, however, in whose interest many of the comments and actions are being mnade and contend that in a majorîty of cases it is flot with the in- terest of Canadians in mind. We fully contend that it is. now time to force ahead with the proposais before the House of Commons so that the direction of the country is well known. The liberals can certainly be faulted in that even many portions of their past budget proposais stili hang in limbo. Hardiy a clear direction where we are going and if this shouid happen with Monday's proposais the ship could sink before the holes are plugged. The liberals have lacked leadership and decisiveness and possibly in their short-termn interest. What about Joe Clark and the Conservatives, and Ed Broadbent and the NDP and we could include Trudeau and the lîberals if they were in opposition to the Conservatives, if oniy for once in the interest of Canada and Canadians, a position they contend they hold, they could support a proposai for at least a two year period. This would give an indication of confidence in this country and provide a background for the working of the budget proposais. It is certainly not in the interest of Canadians to keep the country in turmoil throughi political back-biting and condemnation. Both the con- servatives and NDP act in their own interest. Labour is no better and we often wonder if il is in the interest of even their own members that they take positions of caliing for nation-wide revoit. This would only cause greater damnage to the country through reduced productivity and we contend place a greater hardship on the memnbership in meeting their famnily financial commitments. Letters are beginning to appear tin the press that the rank and file may vote restraint but interestly enough cali for an independent vote taken by other than the Union itself. Unfortunateiy there is a sulent majority across the country who will not speak up and for somne who have they face harrassmrent as bas been reported in such as the postal union. Unions are a demnocratic systemn but members definitely lack the freedorn of ex- pression. The labour movement could quite easily, if in support of the budget proposai, give a big boost to Canada's economnic recovery. In whose interest do the Union leaders act? The CBC Journal with Barabara Frumm and Mary Lou Finley may aiso be asked in whose interest they covered the budget. Frummn was flot about to let the finance minister present the governments case but rathe-r to have himn quarrel with tihe opinions of those opposing his proposais. Fortunatcly she lost out in her bid. Finlcy, hosting a cross-section of citizens in Win- Kendal N ews For the Lord thy God br- ingeth tliee into a good land, A land of brooks of water, 0f Fountains and deptlis That sprîng out of valley's, and huis; , Deuteronomy 8:7 We enjoyed the first good week end in ive on June 26 and 27th. There were just too many events on Sunday. If was decoration day at Orono cemetery. So families took their flowers. Then in the morning it was Communion at Kendai Church. At f wo thirty the Orangemnen held their annual church parade. Tliey were led by the Kendal fife and drumn band. The Orangemhen oh the district werc there and some rom as har away as Woodville. The True Blue ladies lodge of Tyrone and the- Kendal Juvenile Lodge ail made a colourful procession. The service was in charge of Rcv. A. Tizzard. Major Wmn. Clark read the scripture and Mr. Don Peddar brought the message. After the service a social hour was enjoyed in the Hall. 24 years (Continued from page 1) change in the future for the better in this regard. 1Mr. Stutt retains ail the minutes of ail meetings of the board over the past twenty- four years and referring to a the minutes of a 1960 meeting points to hospital day charges of $23.66 which now is weil over $100. The budget in ,960 amounted to some $509,000 while today it reaches a figure over $4 million. Although Jim Stutt has some reservations as to political interference in the past few ycýars the total in- volvement with Memorial Hospital has been a most en- joyable experience for the total twenty-four years. Tucked away in a valley in the Aurora district just north of Toronto, is the village of Kettleby. t's one of those historic, beautiful, picture-postcard places that are scat- tered around the province. 1 went there the other day to visit Barry Dimock at what he calîs "The Herb Homestead." It's a century-old white framne building with a smnall greenhouse attached wvhereDimock grows hundreds of herbs and plants. He's a plant consultant specializing in herbs. But he's quick to point out that he's flot involved in cur- ing bodily ilîs with herbs, nor does lie run a restaurant. "I'm interested in herbs and plants in a creative wvay,"- says Dimock. -l Write about them, give lectures and cook- ing lessons." And for the novice gardener, Barry has plenty of sur- prises. 1 always thought geraniums smelled like geraniums and that was it. Then 1 watched him rub the leaves of various geranium plants. One by one he handed them to. me. saying "smell themn." S'help me, he's got geraniums-that smell like pepper- mint, orange, lemon, lime, and even roses! He can also whip up salads using herbs and plants that wvill tempt the most jaded appetites. And while he's at it he gives you a running commentary on the history of herbs and the legends that have grown up around them. A visit with Dimock is an educational experience. And "The Herb Homestead- an interesting place that seems to fit right into the village of Kettleby with its Old World charm. HOLD APPRECIATION DINNER Tuesday noon the principal and staff at the Orono Public School held an appreciation dinner for the many volunteers who assist with various work at the Orono Public School during the course of the year. The volunteers do play an important part in the activities at the school and their efforts are înost appreciated. the budget. Typical, we say, of most of the news media. Find a farmer who has gone bankrupt, a company that has gone under or a man that has lost his home. Limited the detail s but print it ... it makes good news and reading. Forget about those that do prosper in these times that is flot ncws-worthy. Like the politician'and the labour movemient s0 is the news media, self-interest comes first. But here again s0 miuch couid be done by the very institution that swears by freedom of the press as the protector of mankind. A littie good news could go a long way in building confidence in the state of affairs in this country Who dispenses more doomn and gloomn than the newvs media and in their interest. it ,wotiid take only a few to change their direction in the interest of ail Canadaians to mnake the di fference, It looks so simple but ye, so far way unless we begin to speak uip through the press and to those representatives in Toronto and Ott?,wa. Today we are being cnrle by the v'ocal mninonity and everyone pays the price. Leti the interest lie with Canadians and Canada. Miss C.W. Stewart attend- ed the, annual George Lof- thouse picniîc hcld in the Hayden Shore Pavilion, Oshawa. There were perhaps fiîty family members in at- tendance. The weather was ideal for the event. Our National Debt grows bigger each year. Why? One reason is the patronage system. Almost everyone in Ottawa carnies a briel case. If you are in the employ of the govern- mient case. These brief cases cost the government $400,000.00 each year, but they mean votes to the party in power. Sorry to hear of the hail storm on Tuesday aternoon June 22nd when the gardeners in the Holland Marsh had their crops of let- tuc-e etc. completely destroyed. Last week I'said it was fime to prune the tomnatoes, but thec word tomatocs was omitted. Bet- ween the main stem and each leaf there is a littie sucker that grows. Pinch it out so the sunshine can get in and ripen the tomatoes. Othcrwise the- tomato plant wiil be a thick mass of leaves. For two ycars 1 have planted turnips which turncd out wormy and were uscless. Just like radishes sometimes become. At the seed store thcy ad- viscd me to sprinkle Larvex maggot kilier in the furrow with thc seed whcn i plant thcm. I planted a row Iifteen meters long with turnips on Saturday. So 1 hope to have some in the fali. It will kill cut worms also. Let me continue wîth some events in Eliza Eliott's life. She arrived in Kendal in 1937 at the age of tive and went to live on lier grandfather's farmi now a Provincial Park. Late that year lier father John Carscadden heard that Wm. Lyon Mackenzie was leadîng a rebellion against the new Qucen Victoria so he and his neighbour Mr. Wannon shouldercd their muskets and walked to Toronto to fight for the Qucen. Aftcr they left tlic two womcn were sitting on the doorstep feeling vcry badly. Then Anne Carscad- den said, "Cheer up if thcy don't come back there are lots more men in the worid." Mrs. Wannan said, "Now Ann, you know that's far Irom your heart." However, when the men r e a chi'W Toronto the fighting was al over and Mackenzie had fled to the States. When 1 was a child we stili had the linen towel John Carscadden had woven and taken with him on that journey. The funeral of Mrs. Lîzzie Davis formerly Lizzie Burgess took place on Satur- day, June 25 at the Morris Funeral Chapel and then to Lakefield where her husband is buried. She was a school teacher and taught in Kendal School on a permit. Then after graduation one of her schools was the sixth line school. Three of her entrance pupils were Garland Cathcart, and Catherine Stewart and the late Gertie McMuilen as well as others. She met her husband when teaching near Lakefield. Several of her relatives motored with the funeral to Lakcfield on Saturctay. The Kendal1 U.C.W. are planning a trip to Bowman- ville Zoo and Museum on Ju- ly 14 by car. Leaving Kendal at one p.m. Ail families are invited. Meet as the Parksidc Coffce Shop at one p.m. We plan to go to a restaurant at about five o'ciock for supper.
