Her Column has been a staple of the Midland Times since its first issue, and a regular feature of the Penetanguishene Citizen and of the Elmvale Lance. This week the Midland resident declared that having space every week in a newspaper was a personal prielege. She did admit that having to produce a column every seven days was on oc- casion a "pain in the neck." Her column, syndicated by Miller Services of Toronto, through its life appeared in a range of 16 10 20 newspapers. The column which appears in_ this newspaper on Jan. 23 will be her last column. Her column came to the attention of Miller Services because a neighbour, Helen Redman, Was in hospital in Toronto recovering from open hear: surgery. The person in the bed next to Redman asked her why she was laughing; she was reading a Whit- 'ington column in the Midland Times . The other patient in the hospital room -was a Miller Services employee. On Monday, Whittingtion started in her new job with Huronia_ Historical Parks as a Public relations officer. She worked last summer by contract at Sainte-Marie among the Hurons, assisting in the preparation for the visit of Pope John Paw iy, =) 7 Fellow columnist William Smiley, also for Midland, was a source of encouragement, she said. "I am pleased to be on the same page." Shirley Whittington is the wittiest columnist in Canada, in Smiley's opinion, and a columnist with one of the widest variety of topics she deeps her writing so clear, so sharp. It has been great to have her there. It's been a challenge personally to pbPpear on the same page. She has made me stay on my toes."' "I know that she will be missed very much" by her readers, he said. "Tt's the end of a great syndicated columnist."' cidents, especially ~ multiple vehicle colljssions.

The record shows that when motorists drive with their headlights on, other automobiles, cyclists and pedestrians have greater warning of their approach.

In each province this period has been extended by one hour in the morning and the evening when the glare of the sun, and the number of vehicles on the road, are at their peak. ; It's a good idea to turn your lights on when driving into work, and when driving home in the evening. Not only is it the law, but mounting evidence shows that you will help prevent an accident. This change in the Highway Traffic Act- does not effect the law that requires drivers to turn on their headlights when visibility is less than 150 metres. Another amendment that is now the law of the roadway states. that school bus drivers must have a clear view 125 metres in both direc- tions from their vehicle before they can stop on SIE any 'highway or road. The same law currently .80 applies to all other motorists. This amendment is just plain common sense. Despite their bright yellow colour, buses can be _ hidden from approaching motorists on a windy road. It just makes sense that no un- necessary risks be taken with the safety of school buses.
