2-Oreo Weekly Tim, Wdedy, My 41 A good ??OMenî There are good things that do happen and one such event would have to be the Environmental Launch recently at the Newcastle Public School. The event was sponsored by the Ontario School Boards' Association, the Northumberland and Clarington School Board with assistance from the Ministry of the Environment and Energy. Basically it is ail about educating kids through involvement in the concerns that have to bc addressed for the environment. 'Me lessons beîng taught in the schools through involvement in waste audits must also hit home around the dinner table to the parents. 'Me Newcastle Public Scbool has taken a lead in the Waste Audit program. But such concemns as to the environment is also being reacted upon at the Kirby Public School with their Ecological Trail with tie wbole community involved and a similar involvement coming to Orono Public School through its pilot project of a Walk Trail and we understand a bird and butterfly garden. The Newtonville School also bas an ongoing program with involvement of the students as to waste reduction. One would hope and have to venture that from ail this activity the environment will benefit to a degree at the present and more so in the future as these students take over to run the affairs of this nation and on and beyond. Bulild more roads! The Region of Durham is adamant that the province make an immediate start on the building on the section of 407 Highway east of Markham or to at least coincide with the construction firom the west to Markbain. Durham estimates that the loss now to the region ranges to an amount of $2 billion annually. We find it rather diffîcuit tw understand just how one would come to such a figure and on what it would be based. 'The easiest, saflest, ecologicaily sound and least costly way to correct the problem would to make better use of the GO transit system taking cars with one to two occupants off the road during peak traffic periods. The local GO system cut back came about due to the fact that Durham makes the least use of public transit compared to other such areas. What a cost we pay to be independent. Happen"ings..

Sunday started out wet and windy, it felt more like the onset of winter than spring. Inside the church it was warm and filled with the spirit of friendliness. AIl the pews were filled, we were pleased to have many from Newtonville and Shiloh join with us to show our appreciation to the members present representing the O.P.P., the Durham Rçgiç)nat pUIiCo and the R.C.M.eP The serrrà00 was titled, "Pride Makes The P ifference". Rev. Blaec.k spoke on attending the graduatÏon ceremony of the largest Recrilit Orientation Class in the histl@ry of the Ontario Provincial Police. One hundred and twenty-dfle new officers were sworn in. H6 said in bis 9 years as Chaplain with the O.P.P. he had taken part in many such ceremonies, pd t hey were always impressive ând inspiriniz. He spoke of the new sign at the front of the main building at Brampton, Ît read, 'Provincial Police Acallemy'. Beside the lettering was the O.P.P. shoulder flash, the triangle with curved top. Beneath the sign was something new; ini bold bright red letters, "pride Makes The Difference". After the ceremony, David spoke of r?,ading about the wrangling over the strip search of Audrey Smith, the aftermath of the shooting of Vivi Leimonis, the feudingetween the head of Metro Police~ Association and Susan Eng, head of MetroPolice Services Bc)ard, the savage beating of the convenience store owner, the bgating death of the young Chatham boy, the fatal accident following a drinking party on the sa'me stretch of road near Caledoti that claîmed the lives of 6 youPlg people last year, following a party. A two car accident at Crooked Creek involving drinking and the announcement on the news of a drive by shooting near Newtonville, this last inci dent might be only g hoax. Today we have gatbered to worship in support of peace, and to affirm ouf~ appreciation for those professionals who have sworn to maintain and ensure the peace and daily work and in which to rear the next generation of citizens. it is flot enougb to simply shake their hand and say, "thank you andl good luck." We thank you froni the bottomn of our hearts. The Christian gospel has always fosterecl human pnide, not self serving conceit, but the kind of self respect and integrity that is now proclaimed on the lawn of the O.P.P. Academy. Pride Makes The Difference, We are concernied about peace. Remember that Peace in the biblical meaning is flot simply the absence of strife, peace is an atmosphere and envirofiment that promotes human %wholeness and justice. How do we Support peace? The answer is to support our peace offic-ers, the law of the land and by' honouring tbemn ourselves. Peace cannot be maintained only by laws and enforcement. Peace only cornes when people have a sense of their own value and integrity. A sense of despair, hopelessness, boredom and fear gives rise to much anti-social behaviour. Children who sec their parents wîthout work, who cant gîve them what they need, sec other young people driving around in nice cars, have money to spend on clothes and fun- thesec monçy :W Pu5h thcsc drugs, or perhaps stcal for others. Whose side do you think they will be on? Ask the police, or social workers trying to serve the cause of peace. If we truly want to save our communities, we must reach out to those in need of pride, self- respect and social acceptance. Hire them to do some work for you, even if it is only small jobs, a few hours, it will give them the sense that they are worth something Jesus knew that pride makes the difference. That is why He neyer took the sinners to task, H-e always gave them another chance. Let us take pride in our abiity to foster pride of character in aIl whose lives touch our own whoever they may be, that our community may truly be a better and safer place to live. Following the service everyone gathered, filling the Sunday School room, for a delicious lunch and a time of fellowship. 1 noticed that the young girls, were very interested in speaking with the young lady who was representing the RCMP.
