IBrooklin Bylilnes I have stated, many times, that both Councillors Emm and Lovelock read the Byines and try to give answers to the problems affecîing our readers. e So after last weeks complaint from the resident of 34-35 Side Road, I wasn't at alI surprised to receive a caîl from a very concerned Don Lovelock, the following day. He was concerned because he did feel that Counicil had done a fair job, and the only one possible in this particuhar situation..both 10 the complainant and to the, rest of the taxpayers in general. The story is similar to ast weeks save for three relevant facts. ( 1) that the part of the creek that needed straighten- ing was on private property and flot on the towns..there- fore any work there had to be paid for by the owner. (2) that Council did do wvork on the ditch and the cuhverts thîat were on Town property. And (3) thîat the work was accepted by Mr. Hunt and that he did relieve the Town of further responsibility. In ail fairness 1 do have to give both sides to the story.. and, to any other story, even tho' some of the answers to our questions won't be the ones that we wouhd ike to have. But at least we can see that the Councillors do listen to us thro' the column, and that they do take the time to repty, s0 I stili- feel that the Bylines can reflect the wishes and the grumbles of the taxpayers. This isn't a grumble, but a suggestion that 1 have had from a few of our readers. As anyone in Brookhin knows, croJýing from one side of the town to the other can, to put it mildly, be rather a hazardous affair as highway No. 12 spîjîs the town down the middle. During school starting and finishing times, . the children are quite safe in the hands of our crossing guard. But aI -other times, and parti- cuharly during heavy traffic periods, it is another sîory altogether. Is il not possible to have some form of egal crossing that pedestrians of ail ages can use, knowing ful welI that the traffic wilh stop and that they wilh sa fehy make it to the other side? Or do we have 10 wait for a 'statistic' betore making such a suggestion? Hpre's another date to put on the calendar - apart from the regular weekly events that 1 gave you last week. On Saturday, l9th, October, the Ladies Auxiliary of Branch 152 of the Royal Canadian Legion, are holding their Rum- mage Sale. It's to be held at the Legion in Brooklin be- tween 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. Corne early and find yourself a bargain from the clothing, books, furniture etc. that they will have waiting for you. If you want to be extra helpful and donate articles for the sale, then you may drop themn off at the Legion, or caîl to arrange for a pick-up, on Thurs- day and Friday nighits. One thing before 1 go. I don't honestly think that we are heading for another Federal Election so therefore they must be the remnants of the last..held ini July 1 believe. At any rate there are, it secmns, still clection signs decorat- ing some telegraph poles on Windlhester in Brooklin..and it's now October. Would the enthusiastic workers of both Mrs. Bowerman and Mr. Cafik like to remove them so that the poles can get on with the job of just simply holding up the wires! Not much social news, but what 1I don't hear about 1 can't print so how about dialing that old familiar numnber, 655-3750, and ask for the Bylines. 1 know that usually no news is good news..but all it mneans here isthat no news 15 no0 column!

Recently, a survey in Guelph, Ontario, indicated that 2/3 of the consumers interviewed, preferred briglit red meat and 1/3, dark- purplishi brown meat. The majority associated the bright red colour with fresh, young beef. Darkness was associated with older meat and severe storage coçidi- tions. The minority consid- ered that dark meat indicated tenderness and proper .aging. Some consumners sus- pected that meat was in- jected with artificial colours or displayed under ights that enhanced meat colour. These two suspicions are incorrect and prohibited by law. The colour of meat is due to the pigment myoglobin, Miss Evans points out. This pigment is similar to hemno- globini, the Colour is blood pigment. affected by the quantity of the pigment as well as the chemical state. Myoglobin quantity depends on the species, breed, sex, age and diet of the animal, as well as the specific muscle (i.e. muscle type). Myoglobin is a complex protein pigment and is sus- ceptible to numerous natural chemical changes, which affect mneat colour. The presence of oxygen and 'state of iron in the myoglobin are the major colour factors. Bright red surface meat is caused by oxymyoglobin,, this is natural myoglobin very rich in oxygen. As the oxygen disappearg, the pig- ment becomes purplish-red myoglobin. This colour is found in the centre of a cut of meat. When the natural myoglobin under-goes a change in the condition of its iron portion, the. meat becomes brownish due to formation of metmyoglobin. Thus these three colours of meat are natural and do flot directly iadicate freshness, age of meat, or eating satis- faction. Various types of packag- ing films allow oxygen per- meation and promote the bright red colour of oxymy- oglobin. Brown metmyo- globin can be caused 'by ex- posure to ultra violet ight (among other factors) such as found in display cases. SEW 'WH?
