Oshawa 432-6800 Happy First Birthday Wilmot Creek Chorus Takes Part in Nostalgia Night Janet spoke of the atrocities atrocities perpetrated upon wild and domestic animals by the ignorant and cruel in our society. society. She told of Penny, a beautiful beautiful labrador retriever, who was found beaten and starved by an animal rescue group and taken in one day before she gave birth to a litter litter of puppies. Charlie, a Doberman, was also found starved and beaten nearly to death when he was rescued by the Humane Humane Society of Toronto. He was placed in a loving home and lived for 10 years with his adoptive family. "We cannot prevent every case of abuse," said Janet, "but, we can do more than we are doing now to prevent abuse and help the animals who suffered abuse." "The Toronto Humane Society helps about 4,000 dogs and 9,000 cats every year. This enforces the point that all responsible pet owners owners should have their animals animals spayed and neutered to prevent more unwanted animals. animals. The Toronto Humane Society also has strict rules about adoption that should be adopted by all animal shelters. The prospective owners are given a half-hour interview to prove that they are responsible arid really want the animal. They have to prove that they have a fenced yard. If they work, they must have someone to watch the pet. They must have no children under four and are required to sign a contract to have the pet neutered. neutered. The animal must be returned to the pound if the owners find that they cannot cope with it. Janet ended her speech by. advocating a program to educate the public about the abuses which take place. "We must raise public awareness of the various types of abuses which occur. We must teach the public that animals are sentient beings who need, love, companionship companionship 1 and attention. Then there will be no more horror stories about the Pennies Pennies and Charlies of the world." Ingrid Wunderlich spoke of the ways in which 4-H helps both country and city children by instilling the qualities for which the 4-H stands: Head, Heart, Hand and Health. , She emphasized how the 4-H clubs encourage young people to challenge their capabilities capabilities by showing animals animals in local and Regional Fairs; 1 handling farm machinery; machinery; taking on public speaking offers; accepting leadership roles within 4-H and the community; helping the community by working with environmental concerns concerns such as pollutants and holding office within the 4-H which operates on the Parliamentary Parliamentary System. "The 4-H clubs provide the perfect forum for youngsters youngsters from both cities and the country to learn and grow by attending conferences, conferences, earning scholarships; learning new skills and setting setting and achieving goals for themselves."

Miller Environmentalist, actor, writer, musician and storyteller, storyteller, Bemie Martin was the guest speaker at the Rotary Rotary Club luncheon held at the Flying Dutchman last week. Don Staples introduced this versatile young man who has just completed a. month run of the show "Return "Return of Joe Basso." "I'm very concerned with the environment, environment, particularly the nearly forgotten things, like the great lakes which are not perceived as being important important today. These great lakes were the highways to discovery. I am currently involved involved in the fund raiser for SAGA Save the Ganaraska Again. This work in progress will include coyote stories and poems which will be given with a concert background of various musical musical instruments," Mr. Martin Martin said. Mr. Martin then told us two stories, the first of which involved an old man named "Cowlick". Mr. Martin's Martin's second fable concerned the Coyote, a magical beast who can change himself into > anything but water. This coyote story tells of the search for the "New Kind" (the races of man). Mr. Martin accompanied himself on an African talking talking drum whose beat punctuated punctuated the story line. The coyote asked the forest if it had seen the new kind; "No," answered the forest; "but when they come our days are numbered." The coyote asks this same question of the Beaver, the honey bees and other forest inhabitants. The ominous answer is always always the same, "No. But when they come, our_ days will be numbered." Finally the coyote changes into a raven raven and flies to five crows of whom he makes the same inquiry. They refuse to answer answer him so he turns them into water and they fall to the ground to form the great lakes. To hear the end of this tale, you will have to go to Mr. Martin's SAGA Fundraiser.
