The miracle of how the bread was U multiplied cannot be explain; % ed, but it is a .miracle that is repeated again and again - , even in our own lives. A little band of people had just "the year before come to Amerioa, a new and strange land. During that year half of their families had died. They were facing a bad winter in . New England. Savages were all. about them and ' their harvest was very meagre. But in spite of their hard experiences, experiences, they knelt to thank God for their blessings. There is great power in the experience experience of a genuine thanksgiving. No matter what our need might be, if we will take what resources we have, be truly thankful for them and begin to use that, we will find that God will add His power and we will have all we need, even more.

The Orono Police Trustees received a letter from the Colonial Colonial Coach Bus Lines stating Queen's Park Out of the Dim and Distant Past The problem of drinking drivers has been with us since the automobile was invented. Despite efforts to combat this menace, the toll of death and destruction has mounted to the point where drunk driving now accounts for more than half of all driver deàths. To put this , in perspective, consider consider the fact that traffic accidents accidents are the fourth leading cause of death in Canada and the nutnber one killer of those under 30 years. The tragedy caused by drinking drivers is no longer tolerable and the Ontario Government is committed to making it a thing of the past. Last year, Attorney General Roy McMurtry established ' the Interministry Task Force on Drinking and Driving to study the problem. The Task Force recently released a discussion paper and the Government has adopted its major recommendations.

The Ministry will hold a working seminar this fall to stimulate interest among municipal officials and organizations in undertaking community programs to combat combat the problem.

The most important part of the program is encouraging an evolution in public attitudes. attitudes. Those attitudes are already changing as people realise that drinking and driving driving is,a hostile act which threatens the lives and wellbeing wellbeing of ourselves and those we love. Past efforts to deal with drunk driving has usually usually met with failure. Part of the reason is that we were often too quick to look to the police, the courts and the legislature for solutions to a problem which is social not just legal. Such an approach is insufficient. This is a mat- . ter of concern for every thinking citizen. I was pleased to attend the official opening of* Harmony Heights Public School in Oshawa.
