Building may be delayed Soil tests being performed by Lake Scugog Lumber Co. may force a slowdown on work to build public wash- rooms in Palmer Park. Port Perry village clerk Neil Brodie said excavation has started but soil tests are being conducted "which don't look too good." The public washroom site is being developed after an approval of a federal Local Initiatives Program grant. Total cost for the project will be $41,000. The grant portion is $16,380 and the muncipality is contributing $24,720. 50 percent of which can be reclaimed through the Parks Act. The project will employ up to eighteen persons or an average of fifteen persons per month until May. A formal contract was signed at this week's council meeting. Lake Scugog Lumber Co. has the contract for building the foundation and on completion, the village will hire skilled but presently unemployed workers. "We would prefer to have skilled men on the job' Mr. Brodie said, "and if there are no local people available, we will look into areas such as Lindsay or Ajax." - He also said a supervisor would have to be hired. Check The Label On Your Paper outlook on life- personal effort. first toddling steps, kowtowed to. probably be headed, Of Facts and Fantasy In Praise of Praise In an earlier writing we related how a well- time hit of praise was the incentive that changed our entire a realization that most things are attainable if we're willing to pay the price with Our dictionary defines the word praise; words that tell the worth of value of a thing or person. To this we'd add; praise is sunshine, warmth, courage and hope. it is something we all crave, we all need and growth never takes us beyond this need. Q We use praise to guide our little ones through those and, communication. We use praise to train our pets. Atta boy Rover. Good dog. Remember? Yet as one mature adult to another we dole it out as if each word cost us the equivalent of three ounces of gold dust. When in reality it cost nary a cent. And strangely, the giver is rewarded in excess of what's received. Haven't we all felt good to witness the joy we'd created--after impulsively paying a due compliment? No one wishes to be smeared with blarney or But that's another "Lets Ban the Artificial' dealing only with down-to-earth deserving praise. We recall visiting the home of two delightful their early attempts of and could ". We're story teenagers and remarking to their mother 'you must be very proud of them." She said, "I am. But I don't let them know it." And an octogenarian being interviewed by the press was asked the usual questions regarding his long and prosperous life. He'd made it the hard way. After some serious thought the old man gave some usual answers--hard work, long hours, temperate habits and faith in God. Then reflected for a moment and with old-time shyness added, "Yeah, and my wife Margie, she's been a big help too. You know, there's been times when 'twas all I could do to keep from tellin' her." So we say, take a look at that partner of forty-odd years. Sure, the laugh-lines have become wrinkles and the "'foliage" has thinned. But the wrinkles are not in. the heart. And as our loved old grandfather used to say as he stroked his: shiny pate "It's a mite hard to keep your hair and your wits too." Just remember she's still the gal with the dancing eyes whom you chose from all the rest. And he's the same dashing Sir Galahad who heard your eager--"'to love and cherish. I do." No doubt in your own way you're each saying "Aw shucks, they know how we feel about them." Yes, they know, but they long to be reassured. The old man's wife, Margie knew too. She knew that her hands had given him many a boost upward on that ladder of success. And how she'd yearned sometimes to have him look down and say, "Thank you." And the two young girls knew their parents approved, simply because they didn't disapprove. But they'd have walked with a lighter step had it been put into words. We understand that in this mod. world the meaning of love has become distorted. And sentiment is probably thought to be something we dug from an ancestors attic; priase could be a natural by-product. However, we'd still perscribe it as a medication to be given often, in small doses, because it has to be the cheapest panacea in the world, and we'd bet--the most effective. And before it's condemned it should be tried. This is a subject we've given a lot of thought to, and perhaps will still be pondering on the way to our grave. But we'll still be remembering too, that, John Masefield of literary renown was on our side. He said, "Perhaps once in a century a man is ruined or made insufferable by praise. But surely once in a minute something generous dies for want of it." Annual meeting - Cty. Beef Assoc. The Annual Meeting of the Ontario County Beef Im- provement Association was held in the Brock Township Hall, Sunderland, on Thurs- day, February 1st, 1973, at 11:00 a.m. The main speaker on the program was Mr. Art Gib- ney, Assistant Beef Man- ager, Toronto Plant, Canada Packers. Mr. Gibney took as his topic, "How the Industry, as a Whole, has Reacted to the New Beef Grading Sy- stem." In his remarks, he noted that some of the problems, which were anti- cipated, had not developed, and that the system was running quite smoothly. Advantages, such as the detection of dark cutters, were noted. From the stand- point of the retailer, the kind of beef being purchased is the same as before the new grading system was intro- duced, regardless of the grade. The speaker also noted that the buying habits of the consumer had not changed, and it was his opinion that the demand for beef would continue strong in the future, with rising in- comes in developing coun- tries being one of the factors causing an increase in the world demand for beef. The speaker was intro- duced by Ivan Bell, and thanked, on behalf of the meeting for his very infor- mative talk, by Bert Guthrie. The meeting was also addressed by Ross Moon, Beef Specialist, Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food, who showed coloured slides and explained the new grading system. Others, who spoke breifly, included Ontario Provincial Police Officers, Mr. Dick Sleep, and Mr. John Travis of the Brechin Detachment. These men commented on the number of cattle repor- ted stolen in the area, and emphasized the need for more complete records on the movement of cattle through the livestock sales and from one farm to Rsher x. a WE VE THE VEHICLES READY TO TRAVEL, ALL PLUMBING PROBLEMS \WE CAN UNRAVEL' R El LIABLE PLUMBING & HEATING For Information Phone Bert Faber 985-2012 | & i I i 1 | i r | ) | J 1 2 L
