His grandfather, the Ashanti Chief, surrendered to Baden-Powell, who offered him his right hand as a token of friendship. The Chief insisted on shaking with the left hand, explaining: "The bravest of the brave shake hands with their left hand as, in order to do so, they must throw away their greatest protection, their shield." Thus, Scouts shake hands with the left hand as proof of their good faith and true friendliness. Did you know that on September 18, Howard Jackson, past district commissioner will be recognized for 'Especially Distringuished Service to Scouting?" He will be awarded the Silver Acorn at an investiture conducted by the Lieutenant- Governor of Ontario, the Honourable John B. Aird, at Queen's Park. Our sincere congratulations go out to you Howard! Did you know, in order to keep good capable Scout leaders, training is offered and encouraged al every level of the organization in Canada? National Council provides training for executive staff,so that they may better assist the volunteers. Provincial and District Councils sponsor training courses for their people, who learn to become better and more effective leaders. All of this training is for the benefit of the boy members, who can gain so much from a well organized and well executed Scout program. Training is an area of great concern to Scotuing. One of the high points of involvement in this movement is the excellent training provided to all new leaders.

Drug Store reducing the impact of destroy books. regulations on small business have been enacted by the Ontario government, Norman Sterling, Minister without Portfolio an- nounced. "One of the main goals of our regulatory reform program is to lessen the burden of government rules and procedures on small business. We are sen- sitive to the fact that our regulations, in some areas, have cost the small businessman time and money', Sterling stated. Sterling, minister responsible for regulatory reform, said that although big business was most vocal about government regulation, it was small business that was most affected. The minister used a reform carried out by Ministry of Revenue as an example of govern- ment changes. A new record retentions policy was introduced which was designed to reduce government red tape for more than 250,000 Ontario businesses. Previous regulations required storage of a number of records by businessmen. The new policy now allows records to be destroyed after 5 years and also eliminates the need for the written permission "The government is also looking at the greater self-regulation of certain groups. Where a business can regulate its own practices and where consumer protection is not affected, govern- ment involvement should be lessened". Sterling said. For example, self- regulation in the area of real estate and _ in- surance brokers is presently being con- sidered. In addition, new initiatives respecting small business are being in- troduced by the Ministry of Industry and Tourism. "If a small business is concerned about a provincial regulation, or how it is being ad- ministered, he can turn to the blue pages in the telephone book and phone the Ministry of Industry and Tourism and register his com- plaint", Sterling stated. He added that the Ministry also acts as an advisor to small businessmen for any problems or inquiries they may have about regulations or programs. Sterling stated that he would also be pleased to hear opinions from any small business' on government regulation.
