2-Orono Weekly Times, Wednesday, July 12th, 1989 (T 1 " N ©rono MttMy Stmea Second Class Mail Registration Number 000368 Published Every Wednesday at the office of Publication Main Street, Orono Hoy t'. Forrester, Editor V---- ---- --✓ On the Eleventh Hour With Ontario Hydro proceeding along to firing up the first nuclear reactor at the Darlington plant the Town of Newcastle and Hydro seem to have horns locked in coming to some agreement on a number of items. The seconds and minutes in the eleventh hour are ticking on and the September date for operation is drawing close without any apparent accord. One might ask what happened during the eight years the plant has been in construction and the meetings of the Newcastle Hydro Liaison committee and just why things appeared appeared to go so sour near the end. Time was available and there were lots of pats on the backs from both parties during this period. The Toronto Star last week threw a dart at Ontario Hydro for their insistance that Newcastle fire department upgrade its facility and compliment to service the Darlington nulcear plant. It is a tall order and somewhat costly to the Town. • Hydro has assisted the department over the past few years and appears to be ready again but here we are again affected affected by the eleventh hour. It could be considered that Ontario Hydro operates for all of Ontario and the operation could mean the installation of their own fire department. On the other hand Ontario Hydro pays a grant in-lieu-of-taxes directly' to the Town and lace any-other industry surely expects some returns for what is actually their tax cost to operate in the municipality. It all boils down to a sense of co-operation for Ontario Hydro and the Townare going to be partners for a considerable considerable period of time. A decision from the Atomic Energy Control Board may have a lot to do in arriving at a decision.

The region's finance- management committee is recommending recommending that they not take part in the tests. The committee cites the lack of provincial funds under the joint emergency preparedness program program as well as a battle between Newcastle and Ontario Hydro as cause to hold off taking part in the tests. Newcastle continues with dispute over building permits and the Town's fire-fighting ability with Ontario Hydro. Jack McCorkell, director of occupational occupational health and safety has said that the test will mean little without the participation of the Region and the Town of Newcastle. Emergency Planning Ontario wants to determine emergency responses for provincial, Hydro and local agencies to a simulated nuclear emergency at the Darlington Darlington plant. It is the intent at the present time that the first reactor at the plant is to be started in September and to become fully operational in February Fuel has already been loaded in the reactor. The emergency plan is supposed to be in place prior to the reactor being operational. study * (Continued from page 1) She also referred to an answer from the Minister in that the Town hold off development until a decision decision was made to undertake the study or not. During the brief discussion Frank Wu, director of planning, stated , that a letter had been received on Friday of last week from the Ministry in which was indicated that the Reid-Reinard proposal was not a concern as far as the study was concerned. It did state however that there was concern over the Ganaraska Watershed as to further development development in the area and that Dr. Philp Dwyer of the Ministry would be meeting with Town staff over the consideration of an Environmental Assessment study of the area. It is Understood that the 14-lot proposal comes before the General Purpose committee this coming Monday. To consider Kendal News Influence Drop a pebble in the water And its ripples reach out far; And the sunbeams dancing on them May reflect a star. Give a smile to someone, passing, Thereby make his morning glad: It may greet you in the evening, When your own heart may be sad. Do a deed of simple kindness; Tho' its end you cannot see, It may reach like widening ripples, Down a long eternity. J. Morris I did not attend the open air service service but I hear it was most enjoyable enjoyable and well attended. ' The weather was ideal. Trying to find one's car in a large crowded parking lot is never easy. One day I watched an elderly woman solve the problem rather ingeniously. ingeniously. As she drove in and parked her car looked like every other average sedan - until she reached in, took out a plumber's helper, its handle taped in red, white and blue and affixed it to the roof of her car. Then she strolled away confidently, to do her shopping. shopping. The strawberries are very fine this year. I hope you will all make some jam. Rhubarb and strawberries go together perfectly to give a tart wonderful flavour. If your rhubarb has gone to seed it will be bitter. Pull it all out, discard it. Then throw water on the roots and it will all spring up again. Use half rhubarb and an equal quantity of strawberries. If you use raspberries remove the seeds. Raspberries and red currants make wonderful jam. Directions: Use firm ripe freshly gathered strawberries, remove hulls.

Pour into hot, sterilized pint jars, filling to top; fasten covers at once. If you use certo their recipe book says for each 2 quarts of strawberries strawberries 7 cups sugar. The juice of one lemon adds flavour. Heard on the Campus: "My car's out of gas, What'll I do now?" "How should I know. I've never been out with you before." Aren't trees wonderful? In the Garden of Gethsemane there is to this day an olive tree which has been there since the days of Jesus. An old country proverb declares that "to be a man you must beget a son and plant a tree." I am told that, in all nature, only trees and tortoises live longer than people. The trees that we admire are nearly all older than we are. They shield us from sun, rain, wind and frost and give us a bit of privacy, too is necessary. There is something lovely about a tree in full bloom - yet trees are not only beautiful to behold, they also form an essential part of the biological balance of nature. In his book, "I Planted Trees," , Richard St. Baker reminds us that a tree is really the cheapest large - scale parasol we can have. From the' . Friendship book. The teacher was writing quickly trying to get six letters done for the six pupils in Grade II to také home. She looked at me and said., "I can't get all these letters written. You're a good little girl. If I tell,you.the message you can remember to tell your mother, can't you?" I walked the two miles home saying, Cock-a- ' doodle-doo' My mother said, "What on earth does that mean?" I said, "That's the only way I could remember to tell you what the teacher said. She said to tell you that I have to have a rooster shot for diphteria!" Frdm, "I remember the One-Room- School." How little anybody knows Of other people's secret woes! How kind this ought to make me be To everyone and them to me! (Bob McClure Concluded) When World War II ended the Japanese armies were gone. However the Communists soon took over. So Dr,. Bob McClure and all the other Canadian Missionaries were forced to return to Canada. Rev. and Mrs. Kitchen came to serve the pastorate of ' the Orono United Church. Dr. Bob McClure at first joined a » medical clinic in Toronto and set out to enjoy the family he had scarcely seen in the last 12 years; his wife Amy, three daughters and a son. But he found he'was doing only only as. many operations in a month as he used to do in a day. If God really wanted to use his talents fully, this "certainly wasn't the place. Then in the summer of 1950 a restless apd frustrated McClure heard from a friend that there was a job for a surgeon at a missionary hospital in the Gaza Strip. Gaza was only a small strip of land just south of Israel but it was choked with refugees who had fled Palestine during the Arab-lsrael War of 1948. As chief of surgery, McClure would be serving not only the local residents, but 125,000 people people living in a city of tents, Gaza was >only a four year stop on his way to another job a chief surgeon at the United Church mission mission hospital at, Ràtlam in central India. After 13 years in India at the age of 67 McClure returned to Canada in 1968.There he spent two and a half years as Moderator of the t United Church of Canada outraging outraging and delighting Canadians with his unusual opinions on everything •from church offerings to teenage sex. Nq one really believed that McClure McClure would retire. In 1971 he and his wife Amy went to the American Methodist Hospital in Sarawak on the island of Bornes in southwest Asia.
