8 -- PORT PERRY STAR -- Tuesday, October 22, 1985 Founders were called odd because they care by Clem M. Jeffrey Noble Grand Warriner Lodge No.75 100F The Oddfellows Lodge was first formed on the North American Con- tinént, in the city of Baltimore, on April 26, 1819 by an Englishman, Thomas Wildy, along with four other men. The name ODD- FELLOW was given to these men by their fellow men, as they were con- sidered to be 'ODD' in their con- cern for others. Today it is a world wide Frater- nall Organization, interested in do- ing good to others. Their activities: A trip to the U.N. assembly by a qualified high school student, all expenses paid by Odd- fellow and Rebekah Lodges. Our organization owns a large home for the aged in Barrie. This home is on a 12 acre sight and is open to all seniors, and they can ac- commodate 150 residents. We also have our own hospital, auditorium, and chapel in Barrie. Our, Humanitarian Service is known to all across our province. We own hospital beds, wheel chairs, crutches, and other hospital equip- ment. Those are loaned free of charge to "hose requiring them. Another very important project is Eye Research. The Ontario Com- mittee is working closely with the C NIB. and pledge cards are available to those who wish to will their eyes after they depart from this earth. We are also very active in many activities in our own area, as we go about our pledge, to relieve the distressed, educate the orphan, visit the sick and bury the dead. E.K.

The Association wants officers paid a minimum of six hours for court time each day, rather than the current 4.5 hours. They also want mileage paid to attend court if the officer must travel more than ten km. And the Association wants guarantees that if an officer is kill- ed in the line of duty, the spouse would continue to receive the salary until age 65. Mr. Allan said the Durham Police force now has no guarantee of survivor's benefits. The Police force has not had an of- ficer killed in the line of duty. Mr. Allan said that because the current contract will go in front of the arbitrator November 4, with a final report due about six weeks later, the Association members voted not to take any "job action" at this time. But he strongly hinted some form of "'job action' will take place in negotiations for a 1986 contract. He declined to spell out what form this job action might take, but said "we haven't ruled out any of the options." Police officers are forbidden by law to go on strike. Job action could mean working to rule, refusing to write parking tickets, or in the case of Metro Toronto Police this sum- mer, donning baseball-type caps in- stead of the regulation headgear. Mr. Allan stressed however, that if job action is taken, there will be no slowdown in providing emergen- HOMESTEAD. cy services to the citizens of Durham. He said recent complaints about slow response time in Pickering are not due to contract problems, but a lack of man-power. The Association believes that another 60 officers are needed in Durham, and this will be an issue in the 1986 contract talks. Throughout the hour-long press conference at the Police Association office on Kenneth St. in Oshawa, Mr. Allan repeated several times that the atmosphere between member- ship and the Commission has been severely damaged, and at one point he said members feel they have 'been stabbed in the back' by the refusal to grant the interim wage in- crease for this year. 7/7 / / | NY " Louver Drape ves you i 7/7/11 NG " -- / / / \ , N SS A Ii YT / 7 / \ \ 700 ways to Save po idl. { 25% on Vertical 007 Blinds :: 2 i , PLEATED SHADES! - A LTT | I Ye A A, 7" BLOCK-OUT 700 CHOICES OF COLOUR & TEXTURE PERFECT LIGHT & PRIVACY CONTROL ENERGY-EFFICIENT SOLID VINYL LOUVERS OFFER COMPLETE LIGHT t | ) BEAUTIFUL LIGHT FILTERING FABRICS gr Centre ra Home Decorating I ---- PORT PERRY PLAZA S88B-9238 gy A A SN ------------. et Aan ++ Port Perry's only distributor of LouverDrapes® HOMESTEAD FURNITURE & APPLIANCES sell a lot of bedding!
