Forrester. Editor POLLUTION PROBE CARAVAN Pollution Probe has embarked on an educational pro- gram which takes the form of a bus caravan with ail per- tinent information as to the condition of Lake Ontario. The caravan is visiting centres around the lake both in Ontario and New York state to provide this information to the general public: Pollution Probe do carry a concern as to the health of the lake as to toxic contaminents and seek public con- cern to influence politicians to show a greater will- ingness to bring forth corrective measures. Probe does not expect an over-night solution but wish to have an in- formed public which can apply the needed pressures to strengthen the needed clean-up and control of continued dumping or leakage of toxics into the lake. The caravan on its tour bas passed through Port Hope, Oshawa and today, Wednesday, is located in the Sheridan Mall in Pickering until around 6:00 p.m. It is interesting to note that Port Hope council ob- jected to its request to set-up in the municipal parking lot in Port Hope forcing the Caravan to locate on a private lot in the town. One Port Hope council member inferred of scare tactics by Pollution Probe which we would hope was not consistant with the rest of council in opinion. As a matter of fact, Pollution Probe does have sup- port for the project and its content from Environmental Canada and as well does have support from the Pro- vince of Ontario an indication that even the politicians hold a concern but are knowledgeable enough in getting things done to know they need the support of the general public. The lake problem is not the only problem this country has with pollution and until the general public speaks up very little will be done. It does take a public awareness to bring about change and in the 1960's when green algae began to bind in the lakes, the cry went out and in- deed almost immediate action improved the conditk>n considerably. This is the case when beaches are closed through pollution. It is most visable and the message soon gets through to the politicians. Toxic pollution is another thing for it is not visable and only through such as an educational program as now being provided by Pollution Probe does the public become informed. We cannot close our eyes or muzzle discussion as Port Hope apparently would have us do or as Niagara Falls, New York. Interestly enough, most of the toxic waste leakage into Lake Ontario does corne from Niagara Falls, New York. Have to wait longer Residents of the Town of Newcastle will have to hold off for sometime yet before viewing what apparently must be the major thrust of the bi-centennial celebration in this com- munity. The bi-centennial committee with approval of council has hired a journalist to prepare biographical and familiar places sketches that are particular to the municipality. These sketches which will be published later this year in the local press are also expected to be printed in book form as well. Some 15 to 20 sketches are to be prepared which are con- sidered a lasting tribute to the past during this bi-centennial celebration of the province and the tenth anniversary of the Town of Newcastle. The Town received a grant of $10,000 from the pro- vince of Ontario and are funnelling these monies through the bi-centennial committee for the bi-centenniai promotions in the municipality. To this point other than the purchase and sale of gold and silver bi-centennial coins and purchase of Trade Dollars the bi-centennial in the community is passing somewhat quiet- ly. The Trade Dollars have rlot been a hit and only a few weeks ago there were well over 6000 still awaiting possible distribu- tion. Other centres have already devised and held community events in celebration of the bi-centennial and with monies pro- vided through the provincial treasury. It is not that easy in the Town of Newcastle, it being spread out,, north, south, east and west. Further Lo this the Town decided or the committee decid- ed to hold onto the provincial funds rather than distributing the.m throughout the municipality to organizations who ap- peared ready to hold celebrating events. It may have been possible to co-ordinate such events in a manner that they could have touched ail age groups and within a determined period of time. As the Town has held onto the money the bail is in their hands to now provide the remembrance to the Bi-centennial of the province and the tenth~ municipal anniversary. Kendal News The Sunny Sde Look always on the sunny side, 'Twill make us happier far; Why should we try to find the cloud When brightly shines the star? Some people only see the world As through a smoky glass; They go halfway to meet the woe, And let the sunshine pass. A fine service was held at Kirby on Sunday morning. The church was full. There were a lot of yung people who came to her Jeff de- Jonge bring a fine message. A duet, "Whispering Hope" was given by Mrs. Doreen Lowery and Mrs. Rowena Tizzard that was enjoyed. The Kendal folk will be ex- pected to attend our outdoor service next Sunday morning at the farm home of Mr. Ray Stapleton. One mile west of Newtonville and one mile forth.

He said the number one priority in the minds of Cana- dians was that of unemploy- ment and said the enactment of Turner's leadership cam- paign promise to implement national apprenticeship pro- grams across the nation and retraining programs must be undertaken by a competent leader and political party. Campbell also spoke of the commitment to women and that these principles must be brought down to the level of job seeking in this riding. Campbell said accoun- tability must be conveyed to the general public and the private sector to create con- fidence and trust and that this coupled with responsible in- wiches or cake. i here will be a special speaker at 1l a.m. In 1904 there were three brides in the Kendal area ex- pecting their first child. On February 22, Arthur Thomp- son was born. Then on July ilth Jack Carscadden and on July 16 Alfred Elliott. I told you last week that a birthday celebration was held in the Heritage Restaurant when fourteen gathered for a din- ner after which they returned to a room reserved for the oc- casion in the hospital and en- joyed visiting members of the Elliott clan. Alfred looks so well and youthful but the other two are in Bowmanville Hospital. Jack Carscadden got caught in his own hay- bind that he was altering last week. His grandson thought he was finished, started the tractor and Jack was dragged perhaps 10 feet. His arm is now in a cast broken below the elbow , a bad break. On Tuesday night, July 17, a boit of lightning burned out the transformer on Mrs. Ed- na Dobson's hydro pole. We welcome to the sixth Une Mr. & Mrs. L.D. Gerow who were married on July 14th. They are now living in the Lawrence Greenwood house. centives the public sector will develop to create jobs. The liberal candidate said he would be accessible through an office to the peo- ple in the riding and would personally offer his 33 years of financiai experience to small business, the farmer and the consumer. Campbell said, as a family man with five sons, he too has felt the pain of the reces- sion and was not insulated from the hardships of 1981-82. The candidate did state that throughout the local campaign he will be pro- viding suggestions on im- proving employment that are his own ideas and if elected, will be offering them in the house as proposais. He said he would give 110 percent of his time and self in the election campaign and asked for support from ail those present at the meeting and associated with the liberal party and its views. Don't forget two water those tomato plants if it stays dry. Otherwise they will get dry rot on the bottom and fall off. By Mary Martin of T.V. fame Four of us were in a taxi headed for a restaurant in San Francisco's China town when the crash occurred. It's the last thing I remember about that September day 19 months ago. When I came to in a hospital bed, my daughter Heller and my son Larry were looking down at me anxious- ly. I was trying to ask them "What happened? Where are- my friends?' but I couldn't. The pain was too great. Only later did I learn that a van had smashed broadside into our cab and that my friend and close business associate Ben Washer had been killed instantly. Janet Gaynor, my dearest friend, caught the impact of both my body and Ben's and was smashed up inside and fighting for her lifte. Her husband, Payl Gregory had a serious whiplash, broken ribs and a bruised kidney. The driver of the van was charged with running a red light, drunken driving and manslaughter. I had a pelvis broken in three places, a punctured lung, fractured ribs and pain from head to toe. (copied from "Guidepost" May, 1984). Alcohol is involved in 50 percent of ail fatal crashes in Canada. What are you doing about impaired driving? Six young people were kill- ed near Orangeville when their car was hit by a train at a level crossing at night. Ail had been drinking, ail were under age. The lone survivor a girl of 12 years. In "The Reporter" July 18 1 read "Oldtimers Obtain Beer Tent Approval". Coun- cil in committee has approved plans for a beer tent at Harvey Jackson Memorial Park, Kendal during a oldtimers slow pitch tourna- ment next month. The Millbrook Correctional Cen- tre Oldtimers hockey club and Molson's Breweries are co-sponsoring the event to be held on August 18.

Congratulations to Mayor Garnet Richard. Our cou- should have the welfarebT the Kendal young folk at heart but have they? How many of our young people will consider drinking O.K. because they see the Kendal parents drinking beer in Harvey Jackson Memorial Park.' Now Kendal Park was given to the community by the Jackson family in memory of their son Harvey who served for two long years in France and gave his life a Vimy Ridge in 1918. "Greater love hath no man than this, that he lay down his life for his friends". St. John verse 13. In his last letter home Harvey wrote, "Well Dad, I have neither smoked or drank yet." Do we appreciate this beautiful park? Are we will- ing to desecrate it with beer served to our young men and women?. Hosea 8 v 7 Sow the wind reap the whirlwind. ST.
