1-Orono Weekly Times, Wednesday, September 25, 1985 1'Sennd CIass Mail Registr ahoiNum ber 0u368 PublishdEveyWednesd.y a tthe ffice of Publet Main Sfreet Ormii Comning Our Way At Mopiday's council &jç wis revealed by a representative of the Durham Recyling Centre Inc. that their recycling- program is being considered for the Village of Orono and it would appear this may be not far off. The company has been active in somne of the larger centres east of Orona including the Town of Bowmanville and accarding ta Ron Dupuis, Director of Public Works for Newcastle, the program is grawing in scope in Bowmanvilie. As we understand Durham Recyling Inc. is a private business and is hapeful of covering most of the Durham Region within a periad of time. It would ap- pear that Orano and Newcastle Village are next on their list for expansion of their service. Certainly recyclîng is the way ta go for the future rather than digging bigger and bigger holes ta bury the tons of garbage we create. It is not the only answer hawever and this was pointed out by Gienda Gies an Monday night. Conser- vation on the part of the individual is an asset to help overcome the abundance of waste which is a cast and enviranemntal problem in this country. It is ta be hoped that when the program cames to Orona it will be accepted by the general public fromn which such a plan must have support. OuskU - nmpersmoaiie TEE - oR My wife andi I lost aur 17-year-oid Siamese last' winter, and were sa devastated that we vowed neyer ta have a cat again. Then we read a book by a flower- grower and a cat-lover in Comwali, Enigland - a man called Derek Tangye - and we feit encouraged enough ta go out and buy two Siamese kittens, brother and sister. Itwas my wife's theory that while two might flot be cheaper than one, they wauid be gaad campa- ny for each other and they would be happier, when neither one of us was able ta fawn over them. She was right, of course. They're haif grown now and we couldn't imagine life without-them. Shan, the maie, was the runt of the lt- ter, and we nearly iost hlm in the first two weeks. He had what can delicately be described as a congenital bowei defect, and two vets advised us ta put him down. He owes his life ta my wife and daily doses of minerai ail, and 1 think he knaws it. In the beginning, his sister Lao was larger than he was, and as befits her sex, she has always been prettier and steeker. Lao is aiso mare standoffish than her brother, almost timarous by comparison. Shan quite simply, is a thug. He is bigger than she is now, despite the problems in Nis nether region, and he has the nerve and acquisitive disposition of a burgiar. Lao watches in horror, and retreats ta us for comfort, when she sees hlm doing bad things, which is frequently. She is just like a girl who once sat behind me in school, a goody two shoes. But it is the thug, Shan, who demands aur affection, who winds himself around aur ankies, who butts his head against us, simpiy ta be friendiy. What neyer ceases ta astanish me is the individuali- ty af ail living things. They bath set up a chorus before meals, and bath eat voraciousiy, but it is Shan who is the greediest. He is just as interested in getting under thie kitchen counter in search of garbage after lunch as ha is before it. They are hardly six months aid, but they are distinct persanalities, bath appealing, at least ta cat people. United Way Campaîgn (Conuflni fian 1) tion program.

This week gives M~e Depart- ments throughout the coun- try an opportunity to do a wide variety of things to gain the attention of the general public and try to prevent fires. and deaths. That's just fine as far as it goes, but in our opinion Fire Prevention Week is 365 days long. I have a strong feeling that Fire Prevention Week starts not on Sunday, October 6th, but with the enactmnent of adequate life safety and, fire prevention statutes, laws, codes and the enforcement of these throughout the year. This speciai week gives us "Fire Departments" a chance to promote ourselves and also take a realîstic, factual evaluation of ail that we have done in the past year, as to development of proposais to rectify possible errors of judgemient, eliminate over- sights and strengthen our in- fluence in achieving life and fire safety. We are continuing to learn what we can do to reduce the incidence and danger of fire and put more effort in these directions. I recognize the need to use our limîted manpower where the payoff is greatest, FIRE PREVENTION. Your Fire Department is dedicated to results - saving lives not traditions. Please make an effort to, visit with your-Fire Depart- ment during Fire Prevention Week. J. Aidridge Fire Chief FireDepartment Town of Newcastle No quarter for Eldorado from C.o-uncîl, It was contended that the caverns were safe for perma- nent storage. Dr. Moffat said Eldorado, although it was not necessary, would adhere to support an Environmental Assessment hearing. Counc. Hamre said, "we don't want it here". Council took no action as to the presentation other than recognizing the presentation and would inform Eldorado of any action on council's part as to the issue of per- manent storage. The Town' of Newcastle and the Region of Durham are on record opposing the permanent1 storage of low- level radio-active waste within the confines of the Town. The Town's Monitoring Committee of Port Granby, Waste Management Facility has also broken off meeting with Eldorado. darlîngton N.uclea r K£endal News At Husking Timne At husking time thie tassel fades To brown, above the yellow blades, Whose rustling sheath enswathes the corn That bursts its chrysalis in scorn Longer to lie in prison shades.

E. Pauline Johnson What a lovely week it has been! September days are here, "With summer's best of weather, And autumn's best of cheer.- On Suinday morn- ing we had two visitors in our church from England. Mrs. Ruby Eagling, the wife of a Vicar she had spent many years on the Mission field in Thailand and her companion Mrs. C. Wakeman. They were visitors of Mrs. M. Stevens. The minister told the children a story about keep- ing in tune. The choir sang, "Sweet Hour of Prayer" The sermon was entitled, "What's Important in our Life." Next Sunday September 29 is a most important onefor Kendal when a beautiful new memorial window will be dedicated. It has -been donated by the Alex Hoy family in memory of Anson and Mabel Gilroy and their daughter Edna. Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. James Stark who ceiebrated their golden wed- ding in Newtonvilie.Church with their many friends on Saturday, September 2lst. 1985. A littie girl whose parents are not great readers visited friends the other day. She gazed long and earnestly at the well-filled shelves, then Plant would be completed to a point that it would be economically impossible to close down. Darlington spokesman, Sue Stickley, saîd this was not the case. Any overtime ordered had been to keep construction on schedule. Although Port Hope coun- cil, endorsed Mayor Wyatt's. presentation two members of his councîl had other thoughts. Harold Stevens and Susan Walker said they couid not support a proposai that seems to be looking only at short- terM employment benfits, rather than at ail the economic aspects of the nuclear industry. .Both questioned thle economics ofnueapor amazed them by exclaiming: -We get books from the ibrary too, but we take ours back." Now, is the timie to get those tulip buolbs planted the sooner the better so they will get weli rooted. One idea is to plant them in ciumips of three. The power mower has made a great change on the appearance of country homes. It used to be with the lawn mowers one pushed, by noon one was tuckered out even before the front lawn was cut. Now a lad rides around on a power mower and ini an hour or better has cut a whole acre around the buildings. They look as if they were located in a park. This is an article by Gregory Clark. Since they neyer get frost in the roadbeds across thousands of raîlway miles in the southern and south western states the trains run with a smoothness that seems heavenly to us northerners. You can even bird-watch out the coach window with your field glasses, without jîggling. What had me excited was the number of large hawks-- redtails roughlegs, Swainson's and marsh hawks-- that flew right alongside the train, at a distance of only 50 feet or so, for as long as they could keep up with the speeding transcontinental. I had my glasses on them, and an elderly man up the club car a few seats, finally joined me. He was a southerner famniliar with the phenomenon. "The hawks have found out," he said, "that the pass- ing of the train scares ail sorts of small creatures, birds, mice, moles, rabbits, from the neîghbourhood of the tracks where they might have wandered. Especially the young mice and rabbits not yet accustomed to this hourly hurricane of steel that rushes past. And young mice and rabbits make the best eating. So the hawks, on the ap- proach of the train, swing over and accompanry it for a few hundred yards, and in- variably get very good pick- ing from among the flustered small fry that are panicked." We went to the rear vestibule of the train. And sure enough saw hawks poun- cîng in our wake. Do you want a special treat for school lunches.
