Nowhere was this more evident than when she dined. Even when alone she would neyer tbink of spreading jamn on a whole piece of toast at once; no, she would take a dollop of jam on her plate and spread it on the toast one bite at a time. This posed a problem, however, because from raising eleven children on very little money, she bad also learned to be very frugal - Ilwaste-not, want-not" was ber motto. You see eitber the jamn or the toast would run out and in ber latter days she spent hours at the breakfast table in a futile effort to make themn corne out even. Somehow lately my life seems like that. Each week is ahelping of jam, the number of things I plan to accomplish is the toast. So, if this space is sometimea a little thin it could be that there just la 1/2 x3, 12 x4,1½2x 5 T.G. & MATCHED FOR PANNELING OR WAINSCOTTING 16 sq. ft. per bundle Reg. 136.1'l SPECIAL$2 a9 MITCHELL BROTHERS Cassels & Church St 655-4991 no news or it mây be that I've just run out of jain.

Evans also said that "Ontario Hydro la at odds with conservation measures of the -gaver- nment" and must become more accoun- table for the way it does business. He also bas doubts as to whether Ashe is prepared 10 deal with the search for alter- native energy sources because of his self- confessed conser- vatism. "It is unfortunate that we don't have someone who's more creative and progressive in the energy portfolio," Evans said. "Ashe is the kind of conservative that looks backwards and tries to keep thinga the way they are. He tends ta be reactive in- stead of pro-active." Now that Miller's government la in place, Ashe is hoping that tbe election will be called between mid-April and mid-June. "It appears that there might be an election held between mid-April and mid-June," be aaid. "I hope it won't be the faîl. We don't need a summer campaign and if we hold il later il could interfere in thse municipal elections." He notes that municipal elections traditionally have a low turn-out and it couid ho hurt even more by a provincial campaign. "I'd rather get it over with in May of June, personally," Asbe said.
