Tim e to say no WMen 1 was a young boy my parents did everything they could for me. They did eveiything in their power to make my childhood a wonderful memory. Unfortunatoly, what I did flot understand at the time was that for me to have what I needed, my parents had te give up some of the things that were important te them. My family had only so much money tu spend. My seven brothers and sisters and 1 had te. share what was available. 1Even with ail my parents' giving, and theïr desire for me te have everything I needed, sometimes they had te ay "No." It was flot easy for them te do. "No" le a very hard word te say te some one you love, but sometimes it's necessary and the right thing te do. Whenever my parents said they were sorry, that there just wasn't. enough money left te get everything I wanted, I always felt let down. Feit tliat they would not buy it for me- because they didn't want tii spend the money, or because they wanted te let me know who was the boss. Boy was I wrong. What I didn't understand as a boy, I see as clear as day as a parent. Sometimes, even though it really hurts, you just have te say "No." Whenever my parents had te watch what they were spending, we were each asked te doi our share. I didn't have to accept more hand-me-downs because I was younger, my sisters didn't have te acceptiese because they were girls, and my brothers dîdn't have te sacrifice more because they were older. We ail had te make sacrifices. 0f course, I feit that I had to give up the most. After ail, what I was giving up was important. They were giving up thinga that were easy. Now I look back on those times when we were asked te make do with leas and I realize we were each asked te do our s3hare'equally. No one was asked te give up more than the other. It was aiways as fair as possible. As we grew older we were able te help ourselves with earnings from part-time jobs after sehool like paper routes. I remember well saving week by week for the new bicycle that I wanted and later for my first pair of expensive skates. The Provincial Govenment reoently announced plans te reduce spending. Not because the government doesn't want te spend the money. Not because it wants te let people know who's boss. But because it just doesnt have the money te spend. ià ke myfamily,. and yours, eveiyone je goiring te have -te make changes. Many wfill feel tbat they are doing more than their share. But the ~tith ta, everyone will be making somn adjustments, because the* province just doesn't have the money te spend. Answers to Whitby Trivia from page 5 1. Thomas Wray (1810-1912) Was Whitby's f irst Centenarian. 2. The Whitby Mail was bu'lit in 1968-69. 3. Two internationally-known jockeys who g rew up in Whitby were Nat Ray (1876- 1953) and Sandy Hlawley (born 1949). 4. The first royal visitor to Whitby was the Prince of- Wales (later King Edward VII) who stopped here on Sept. 7, 1860 during his Canadian tour. FROMPAGE 28 Ini 1926 it was replaced by two motor-driven fire trucks, a, Godfredson pumper and a Chevrolet cheniical truck. These trucks were a great improvement - - when the firefighters remembered to keep them supplied with enough gasoline. One time in the 192013, one of the fire trucks ran out of gas on the way to a. fire. As a resuit, the fire department hired garageman Harold Boys ini 193 1 to service and maintain the trucks. He served ini this capacity un til bis metrement in 1965. In 1934, eight years after it was retired, the Merryweather. was donated to the York 'H.istorical Society and displayed at Fort York in Toronto. Its final fate remr asa mystery to this day.
