2-Oromo Weely Tinmes, Wednesday, Juply 4, 1984 - nôIL. EýàiWàed,-t h fie G Ê A Step In The Right Direction The Public works department of the Town of Newcas- tie has brouglit forth a worthy proposai in an attempt to reduce garbage waste througli recydling of waste newspaper and as well glass and tin. Aithougli the Town's General Pur- pose committee have given their approvai to the interim pro- posai there apparentiy is some refinement yet to be made before the proposai goes into practice in the Town of Bowmanville. The proposai through recycling wouid reduce the amount of waste that wouid have to be disposed of in waste disposai sites which in turn reduces the cost of garbage disposai for the municipality andi the taxpayer. There is aiso the aspect of conservation of many of our naturai resources which in some cases are depleting. The success of the program, of course, depends on the support the program receives fromi the general public in that there is a requirement that citizens separate their garbage in order that it can be efficiently handled to implement the pro- posai. There is no simple answer other than an effort from the householder. Surely it is to their benefit in flot oniy in annuai cost of operation but aiso in an attempt to reduce the capital cost of estabiishing waste disposai sites for ail our waste. The Town of Newcastle proposai turns the recycling proposai over to private enterprise which does not increase cost to the Town -but rather provides the opportunity for a reduction in cost. It is logicai that the attempt should be made in Bowmanville, the largest urban area in Newcastle, to try out sucli a system. One wouid hope, however, that such a system couid be negotiated into other contracts in the future that wouid include the Villages of Orono and Newcastle. There are few avenues open to handie waste that are not costly and increaseingly costly. Source separation is one avenue to heip out but too often it is set aside Mth the remark that people wiii not take the time or make the effort to source separate. Surely it is worth an attempt and we wouid hope that people do care enough to help in reducing their own costs, if for no other reason.

The Town is accommodate the labour ffhrough their regular annual budget with other funds required, $2,500.00, coming from a Parks Reserve Account. The proposai will reset somne gabion work and as weii remove old cernent sidewaiks and replace with Rip-Rap. The project wiil require 65 tons of four to ight incli stone. The proposai must now be approved by counicil. Town Asking Region for Housing Statement The Town of Newcastle is to ask the Region of Durham to prepare a Municipai Housing Statement for the municipali- ty. Newcastle, UxbridgF and Scugog are the only two municipalities within the Region of Durham to not have a Municipai Housing Statement in place. Terry Edwards, director of Planning, points to the desirability of such a statement but points out that Twon staff does not have the time toa prepare such a document. Edwards states the -Town would benefit from the preparation of such a Statement, particularly in the area of long range poiicy for- mulation. He said the Town should take the opportunity to ac- cept the offer by the Region to prepare the statement.

Semesteriflg (Continued from page 1) years. The evaluation report does state that in-service workshops keying in on the General Level student coupl- ed with a serious considera- tion of the time-tabie and its ramifications must be kept in the forefront as the semester systemn becomes further estabiished in the sehool. The report states that ex- amination days wiil be moved from June to April to attempt to alleviate a pressure pro- blem during the mid-semester examination period. As to stucient achievemnent under the semnester systemn it lias been reported that there appears to have been a mark- ed improvement which may be due to some part to the in- creased empliasis that staff have piaced on generai tevel course revisions. The evaluation report aiso mentions that there has been somne mention by stridents, especailiy in grade 13, of the homework load. But here it is also mentioned that student effort h as greatly increased .9- students realize that to suc- ceeda sustained effort must lie maintained'more than in previous years.

Clarke High school was the forerunner in thie semester systemi wiihin ihie jurisdliction of the Northumberland and Newcast le Board of Educa- i ion. The weather was perfect on Sunday, July the lst. Several of the Kendal folk attended the Beef barbeque at Newtonville put on by Newtonville United Church. This was an enjoyable event., Canadians must be careful to preserve their hieritage. An old stone bridge is being restored dlown Ottawa way. The original Uncle Tom 's Cabin is for sale. An Amnerican is waiting to buy it and move it across the line. Will this happen? The stone houses around here were buiit at the timne of the Crimean War which ended in 1856. It is nice to see some of them being restored. One of the visitors to Ken- dal Church on -Home Com- ing" Sunday was Mrs. Rowena (Archer) Sherry of Port Hope who as a girl lived on the farm where Fred Winn lives today. Her daughter Lois Sherry accompanied lier. The Tîn-Lined Trunk by Mary Hamilton , Afterword by Joy Parr There are many grand- parents who must know stories about girls and boys like Polly and Jack. Between 1868 and 1925, 80,000 British chiidren were sent to work on canadian farmns. A quarter of thema were sponsoreçi by the rescue home described here - Dr. Barnardo's. Tl'le rest of the children came from workhouses and shelters in large cities throughout England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales. At the time, child emigration seemned a good thing for both Britain and Canada. Britons worried that street arabs like Polly and Jack would grow up to be discontented even dangerous aduits. People like Dr. Barnardo thought that most working class parents were no. better than Old Briggs. They searched for homes where poor children- could be taught to be god- fearing citizens of the British Empire. White many boys and girls from orphanages and workhouse "schools looked upon emigration as a great adventure for a majority of children, the parting was dîf- ficuit. Although Polly and Jack knew none of their kmn in Bîtain, two thirds of the child immigrants had family - a father, a mother or brothers & sisters - whomn they left behind, perhaps neyer to see again. Farm work was difficult and u-nfamiliar for city children. This was before the invention of washing machines, vacuum cleaners, tractors and combine harvesters. Eastern Canadian farmiers whose sons and daughters were moving to the cities or the West, bad- Iy needed other young people to help them. These Cana- dian farms seemed like the healthy surroundings British siumn children needed despite the difficulty of the work. ST. SAVIOUR'S MAIN STREET, ORONO JULY 8, 1984 9:45 a. m.
