Vegetable farmers blame dams for crop flood .so farmers SAV the refusal Of St Michel.Ste Clothilde and would cause the rivers to overflow int< MONTREAL (CP) — An association representing local vegetable farmers has asked the Quebec and federal governments to help dozens of truck farmers who say their crops have been destroyed because of slow reaction by provincial officials to last weekend s heavv rains More than 50 farmers say the refusal of Quebec officials to open dams on two rivers south of here last weekend is responsible for floods that covered their crops in 30 centimetres of water.The flooding covers about 800 hectares of farmland It occurred after 10 centimetres of rain fell on the villages of St Michel, Ste Clothilde and Sherrington, about 50 kilometres south of here During the weekend, the farmers asked Quebec officials to open the dams, built in the 1960s as a water conservation measure The farmers feared the heavy rains The Kent Royal Commission Report predicts greater concentration OTTAWA (CP) — The Kent royal I commission on newspapers has called for tough government action to fight concentrated newspaper and broadcast I ownership that it says poses a new kind | of threat to press freedom The commission Tuesday recom-I mended unprecedented laws to I regulate ownership and journalism quality.It warned the free exchange of ideas is threatened by transfer of I newspapers to the hands of a few I corporations and individuals.It concluded after a $3-million study I lasting nine months that concentration I engulfs the newspaper industry and said media giants should be forced to divest themselves of holdings in some I regions.Commission chairman Tom Kent singled out at a news conference Thomson Newspapers Ltd for special criticism.Thomson owns 40 dailies in Canada, including the prestigious Globe and Mail in Toronto.“It is a concentration of ownership, a concentration of power in one set of hands which is clearly the reverse of all normal concepts of freedom of the press, the liberty and independence of the society,” he said.“What has already happened is, in the commission's judgment, monstrous,” the Kent report said.It predicted greater concentration unless laws change.WANTS ACTION The commission, struck last August after the simultaneous closing of Thomson's Ottawa Journal and Southam Inc.’s Winnipeg Tribune, urged the government to pass legislation to prevent more concentration.provide tax incentives for better journalism, force some newspaper owners to sell, and establish a press rights panel to monitor adherence to the new laws Kent, a former editor of the Winnipeg Free Press, and fellow commissioners Borden Spears, a veteran newspaper journalist, and Laurent Picard, a former president of the CBC, insisted they meant the press to keep the freedom from government censorship it has fought for and won “But, in all matters, freedom Proposals extreme, say editors I CANADIAN PRESS The Kent royal commission on newspapers stirred up a hornet’s nest of angry editors and publishers across the | country when it recommended stiff government control of ownership in the | industry Tuesday “It reads a bit like a psychedelic dream,” said Fred Hazel, editor-in-, chief of the two Irving newspapers in Saint John, the morning Telegraph-I Journal and the afternoon Times-! Globe.Paddy Sherman, publisher of the I Vancouver Province, compared the commission, headed by former Winnipeg Free Press editor Tom Kent, with I Alice in Wonderland.He said if the government followed I the recommendations, the newspaper I industry could be in even more trouble “They are so extreme in their I proposals that I don t see any responsible government adopting their recommendations.Sherman was especially skeptical about the press rights panel.“1 have a horrible feeling that the press rights panel will end up as a press control panel." Clark Davey, editor of the Vancouver Sun, a Southam Inc.paper along with The Province, said the commission had gone so far in its recommendations that it was “tougher than the public will even consider ” Robert McConnell, publisher of the Montreal Gazette, called the report "basically a dishonest document " He said he looked at the report, considered it nonsense and wondered “who the hell produced it.” A Roy Megarry, publisher of the Toronto Globe and Mail, said only monumental ignorance of the industry could have prompted the commission recommendation that Thomson Newspapers Ltd., owner of The Globe, sell either it or the other 39 papers the chain has.Progressive Conservative MP Pernn Beatty, assigned by party leader Joe Clark to deal with the report, said in an interview he needs more time to study it.The Centre for Investigative Journalism, which describes itself as Canada’s largest association of reporters, urged government to freeze concentration of the media in corporate hands until it acts to implement the Kent recommendations.Harvey Schacter.centre co-president and news editor of the Kingston Wig-Standard.said in a news release: “While we are pleasantly surprised at the spirit of the Kent commission’s report, we remain pessimistic about the likelihood of government action on it ” requires not only the absence of government shackles, but also the affirmative action of law to protect society against the chains that its powerful minorities may impose on others,” they said in their 310-page report.“Freedom of the press is not a property right of owners.It is a right of the people.” Of the 117 daily newspapers in Canada, 88 are controlled by chains, many of which also have broadcasting outlets in the same markets.Three chaias control 90 per cent of daily circulation in the French language, while three others produce two of every three English-language papers sold.The commission said that for too many of these chains — such as Thomson, the Irving group, which has all five New Brunswick English dailies, and Paul Desmarais’ Gesca Ltee., with four in Quebec — profits are put ahead of public service.It said because owners of many newspapers have other business interests much of the press is not dedicated exclusively to its purpose — “the discharge of its public responsibility.’’ The press should be free not only from the state, but also from other pressures, the commissioners said.The commission complimented the Southam group, whose 14 dailies have the largest block of English-language circulation at about 33 per cent The report said Southam operates with a conscience, but warned the chain is ripe for takeover by a company more interested in profits.But the commission’s recommendations will amount to little more than research material for graduate students unless they are accepted by cabinet and by Parliament would cause the rivers to overflow into their fields if the dams remained closed When Quebec officials finally agreed Monday morning to open the main dam, it was too late.•NEVER KNOW’ Jean Bertrand, regional co-ordinator for the provincial agriculture department, said: “You never know how much to open the dams, because you never know how much rain will fall ” Agriculture department officials made a helicopter survey of the flooded area Tuesday but would not say what, if anything, they planned to do.Gaétan Amyot, general manager of the farmers association, said total losses to crops of carrots, lettuce, onions, cabbages and other submerged vegetables will depend on the weather during the next few days.It has been clear and sunny since the weekend He said farmers are also seeking assurance that Quebec officials will not allow their land to flood again the government agencies now were the most important shareholders.Coulombe and Campeau said they demanded at the meeting that the Quebec agencies have representation on Domtar’s board and executive committee proportional to their 42-percent ownership.Domtar is the country's second largest forest-products company, with a large proportion of its assets in Quebec Sales last year were $1.65 billion U.S.fighters shoot down Libyan planes WASHINGTON (AP) Two U.S.Navy F-14 fighter planes shot down two Libyan Soviet-built SU-22 fighters early today after the Libyan planes fired on the U.S aircraft in an “unprovoked attack” in international airspace over the Mediterranean Sea, the Pentagon announced Navy Cmdr.Charles Klee said none of the U.S personnel in the normally two-man F-14s were injured in the incident.Navy Capt.Larry Hamilton, a Pentagon spokesman, said he did not know whether any U.S.air crew members were injured or even if the U.S.fighters were damaged He said he also did not know the fate of the Libyan pilots.The U.S F-14s were attacked during what the Pentagon called a “previously announced routine exercise in international airspace over international waters” about 60 nautical miles from the nearest land in the south-central Mediterranean The Libyans have claimed sovereignty over waters and air space reaching out 200 miles from their coast, but the United States recognizes only the traditional three-mile limit, Pentagon officials have said.“The U S government is protesting through diplomatic channels this unprovoked attack,” the Pentagon said.Meanwhile, Hamilton said the U.S.naval fleet exercise is continuing as planned Hostage taker pleads for prison misery relief HULL, Que (CP) - Jean-Paul Alarie, who held a Hull jail guard hostage for 16 hours last weekend, called on Solicitor General Robert Kaplan Tuesday to relieve prisoners at maximum security penitentiaries of the misery in their lives In a hand written eight-page letter, the 28-year-old Ottawa man said prisoners in isolation cells at such institutions should be allowed overnight visits with families or girlfriends under the correctional services conjugal visits program.The letter was a condition Alarie, who is serving a 20-year sentence at Milhaven penitentiary near Kingston, Ont., demanded police guarantee before he surrendered after a 16-hour siege that began at noon Friday when he seized guard Roger Rondeau.He surrendered early Saturday morning.Rondeau was not harmed.One of Kaplan’s aides said the minister would not comment on the letter until he received it in the mail.Alarie also said prisoners are sometimes left for weeks at a time in Milhaven’s isolation cells because there is no room for them in more relaxed areas.A correction service spokesman said prisoners are confined to isolation cells for only a day or two before being transferred to more relaxed areas where they can mingle with other prisoners and watch television Only unusually aggressive prisoners are kept in the cells for long periods of time, he said.Alarie said that at the end of July when he expected to be released from an isolation cell after five weeks of good behavior he was informed he would remain there for another month “That isn’t fair," he said in the letter “They just wanted to play around with my head and morale." The letter was released to reporters when, for two break-ins Alarie committed after he escaped from Mdhaven last year, Hull Judge Edgar Allard added another 18 months to Alarie s current 20-year sentence He also was remanded to Aug.25 to register a plea to charges of kidnapping.forcible confinement of a prison guard, assault with intend to wound, possession of a knife and public mischief.The charges were laid after Alarie surrendered to police Saturday I 4 2 WEDNESDAY.AUGUST 19,1981 Eight premiers to poll public support VICTORIA v t ; ¦'Af.'V .POhWTO Editor: Now that "Canada Slo-Post” is back in action, I can offer an opinion on the recent commentary by Dr.James Ross and Royal Orr.In many respects the English-speaking population is well served by the Townshippers’ Association, as we are well served by The Record, The Sun and Stanstead Journal.But, our voice does not extend beyond the confines of our region, anymore than does the influence of our kin in the Gaspe or the North Shore.In short although we are numerically strong within the province, we are fragmented when it comes to speaking with one voice regarding our common concerns, which are many.The question arises, do we need an umbrella organization?I would have to answer “yes" at this point in time.A somewhat parallel situation exists in Ontario, where the Franco-Ontariens, like ourselves, are dispersed throughout the province.The big difference between ourselves and the Franco-Ontariens, is that they belong to an umbrella organization, “L’Association des Franco-Ontariens”, which is well constructed and is highly visible and vocal, speaking with one unified voice for the needs and concerns of its members.In short, it has developed clout, which the Anglophones of Quebec will not develop to any great degree while we continue along the present path of each group to itself.We can argue interminably that English-speaking Montreal is not the Townships, that their priorities are not the same as ours, etc.Yet, Montreal’s English school boards are dosing schools, their youth is leaving the province and like ourselves they too are striving to assert themselves as a distinctly-recognizable minority within.Quebec.I am strongly convinced that steps can be taken to examine the feasibility of organizing a meeting of the leaders of the various anglophone organizations to examine what is required to form a unified organization.A case of, “united we stand, divided we fall”.In the hope that the foregoing will elicit further commentary from your readers, I remain, Sincerely, BERNARD BAILEY, Drummondville Thanks ‘Croeso’means ‘Welcome ’ Fonda Fortnightly There is no sign saying ‘Croeso i Cymru’ but then the sign isn’t really needed.It’s easy to tell when you've crossed the border from England to Wales.For one thing, the names change: Cwmbach, Llanfihangel, lîalachddu; so does the countryside.Travelling west across mid-Wales the land rises in steady and sometimes spectacular fashion.The small roads wind their way snake-like up hills, around the odd lake, and into the high plateaus of the Cambrian Mountains Up here there are no trees, no heather, no bracken; the grass grows short and spiky.In early November the ground is already sprinkled white with a smattering of snow Sheep graze on land | which stretches for miles without fence or stone wall They seem especially fond of the grass on the verge of the | narrow road and are little bothered by the trickle of traffic The road follows a fast-flowing stream which, if one can judge by the sandy bed, becomes a torrent in the spring.Houses are very few and far between.Further west, and especially further north, the bare plateau gives way to white-capped mountains and deep valleys The road running along the vallev floor bends and twists between ancient dry-stone walls.The valleys are still green and the farms look prosperous The Gower slopes are sometimes forested and the deciduous trees, yellow and orange, stand out BY NICK FONDA against the dark pines.In places the firs tower over the valley; elsewhere the trees are small, gnarled things, deformed by the elements into twisted, i arthritic limbs.At times the road climbs above the tree line and passes by the derelict buildings.A large structure half-covered in corrugated iron is all that is left of a mine.The stone buildings nearby have long since been abandoned by their inhabitants.Then, quite suddenly, the road drops towards another town with an unpronounceable name, Aberystwyth.Pinched between the mountains and the sea.its narrow’ streets run uphill and down between grey stone shops and pastel-coloured houses.A cement wall holds back the Atnaltic; when the tide is out the sandy ocean floor becomes a beach but during a storm salt waves will lick at the road above the wall.The three- and four-storey houses facing the ocean are a soft rainbow of colour -blue, red.green, yellow.And all do a roaring trade during the tourist season in the bed-and-breakfast business.Clients pay for the view, not for the comfort Being in Wales is a little bit like being in Quebec.In the streets and shops one hears two languages — English and Welsh.The Welsh tongue seems to be alternately gluttural and musical with lots of rolling “r's” thrown in.And while the Welsh use English letters they don’t give them the same value; the letter “w” for example is pronounced “o”.The pace of life in Wales is a little slower as well.I was told that the Welsh have a saying: “When God created time, he made plenty of it”.It’s the relaxed lifestyle as much as the natural beauty of the country which is attracting an increasing number of English families to Wales.The tendency seems to be for a businessman to sell his property in London or Manchester and buy a small hotel in one of the coastal towns The practice is frowned upon however and sometimes actively discouraged by Welsh nationalists.Recently a number of houses bought by Englishmen have gone up in flames A television comedian promptly made light of the matter with the quip."Stay warm this winter, buy a home in Wales." But the separatist movement in Wales isn’t a joke.It has very deep roots and seems to be slowly growing That may be one reason there is no •Welcome to Wales' sign on the border Editor and Staff: I, being the secretary of the Stanbridge East Senior Citizens' Club wish to extend sincere thanks and appreciation for the kind and accurate attention and the space given us for our many items sent in to your paper for over two years.Many people from afar, once residents of Stanbridge vicinity thor- oughly enjoy seeing familiar names in the items.This pleasure given to others, many of whom are in Nursing Homes, makes all our efforts very rewarding.Thanks again for your kind consideration and graciousness.FREDA M.FATTEN DEN, Stanbridge East C.B.C.lawsuits: verdict mixed TRURO.N.S.tCP) — The CBC was successful in defending against one defamation action but lost a second suit this week in Nova Scotia Supreme Court Mr Justice William Grant ruled the CBC and television journalist Lyndon MacIntyre had not defamed Toronto developer Joseph Burnett in an interview Sept.5,1978, but Burnett had been defamed in a televised documentary on Sept 22, 1978.Mr Justice Grant, who heard the suits simultaneously, said there was no defamation in the Sept.5 interview between MacIntyre and Billy Joe MacLean, mayor of Port Hawkesbury, N.S.The interview took place in preparation for the TV program and the exchange was reported to Burnett by MacLean.Burnett claimed that some of the things MacIntyre said to MacLean were libellous.The judge ruled that the documentary, which was part of the series The MacIntyre File, defamed Burnett.The senes dealt with the financing of several shopping malls in the Maritimes Mr Justice Grant said that on the Sept.22 program the script was lawful but the cumulative effects of the script and images on a backdrop were defamatory.) WEDNESDAY.AUGUST 19, 19«l5 Business Ww’-v .fX‘Mr Fishing schedules have become an annual grievance among fishing firms Layoff plan fuels government fish stocks regulation feud HALIFAX (CP) The planned layoff of 1.800 workers by National Sea Products Ltd.has brought to the surface the biggest dispute in Canada's fishing industry government regulation of fish stocks National Sea insiders, representatives of some of the unions affected and company brass accuse federal Fisheries Minister Romeo LeBlanc of empirebuilding and of having an absolute mania for regulation Department officials, including LeBlanc, say the industry's accusations are hogwash, and that the layoffs are an attempt to pressure Ottawa into relaxing its grip The whole scrap ac celerated Tuesday night with a terse statement from National Sea saying it was laying off workers at its plants at Halifax and St.John's, Nfld., putting some trawlers based in Lunenburg, N S., into drydock for refit, and shutting down seasonal facilities in the Magdalen Islands.Que., and at Morell and Summerside, PEL Operations will also be reduced at Shippegan, N B .reducing the work force there by about 300, at least temporarily.niSPITF.LENGTHY The regulation dispute has been a lengthy one.A planner for one of the major fishing companies, who declined to be named, said LeBlanc has been steering the fishery on a dangerous course since 1977 when a new series of annual fishing schedules was put into effect Since then, the planner said LeBlanc has been putting the needs of the inshore or ^mail-boat fishery ahead of those of t'.e offshore companies.His alleged reason: The political advantage of pleasing thousands of small-boat fishermen versus (he limited advantage of pleasing a few big corporations.The fishing schedules have become an annual grievance among the companies, who say their share of stocks are shrinking each year while the inshore fishermen get more.The companies say they are being excluded from the valuable and cheaply-obtained cod stocks in the Gulf of St.Lawrence, a main destination for Nova Scotia-based vessels.This means the big companies must send their boats farther afield, driving up energy costs.LOST MONEY "Put it this way,” one National Sea executive said."We sold $273 million worth of fish last year and lost a million and a half dollars.You figure it out" National Sea president W 0.Morrow was away Wednesday and was not available for comment.But LeBlanc says if the companies are losing money, it is their own fault.He told The Canadian Press that catch allocations have increased each year and the allocation for the offshore fleet for 1980 is 47,000 tonnes greater than it was in 1980.There is more fish available to the offshore, there is more fish taken by the offshore.So if taking more fish is a sign of prosperity, they ( the com panics) should be prosperous.” LeBlanc said the com panics are losing money because markets are slow due to high interest rates and carrying charges and un willingness among large buyers to keep inventories for any length of time."It is a simplistic argument to blame the poor financial situation on the government" f Be careful Electricity will take the easiest path to reach the ground ¦ % T|iia i Sky-high interest may mean record issues year NEW YORK (CP) — Sky-high interest rates and the low value of the Canadian dollar have combined to provide unusual risks and opportunities for Canadian governments and cor porations looking to raise capital on L’.S.bond markets.The U S.bond market is traditionally a major source for Canadians to raise capital If the current hectic pace is maintained, it could be a record year for Canadian issues.said Richard Schmeelk.an executive partner with Salomon Brothers.The latest Morgan Guaranty Trust Co.review of world financial markets, indicates Canadian bond issues are already at record levels this year with more than $3-billion worth offered in the first six months, compared to $2.1 billion in the same period last year On U S.markets.Canadian issues totalled $2.9 billion from January to July, up from $870 million in the same 1980 period and already nearing the record 1978 level of $3.1 billion for the entire year For some regular Canadian borrowers, like Ontario Hydro and Hvdro- Quebec, the falling Canadian dollar posed no particular problems.Both big utilities sell large quantities of power to U.S.customers for U.S.dollars.COSTS MORE But for Canadian governments and companies without U.S.revenue sources the falling dollar is costing more money since repayment is in U.S dollars.In addition, the spread ore premium above the level of interest paid by the U.S.government on its issues — has widened for all corporate and foreign government borrowers in recent months.That further increases the cost of borrowing on the U.S.market.“With the U.S.government making very heavy demands on the capital market all other borrowers have had to pay an extra yield spread or premium to attract lenders,” Schmeelk said.In lact.the low value of the Canadian dollar relative to its U.S counterpart also offers some potential advantages for Canadian bond issuers.If they believe the Canadian dollar is near its historical low and will rise in the future, then thev can approach me market with “greater confidence” said Schmeelk OFFSET PREMIUM A stronger dollar would allow repayment of bonds issued today with Canadian dollars at less of a discount.If that happens it will offset the extra premium and high rates currently needed to attract lenders, he said.Some bond traders, like Mel Delgado at Richardson and Co., expect the Canadian government to bring “a very large, perhaps $400-to-$500-million issue to market in the near future.” Such a move could help strengthen the ('anadian dollar, but expectations of a big premium priced issue is causing some lender resistance for existing Canadian issues.Delgado said.“A big (Canadian issue would help the Canadian dollar in the short term,” said Delgado, but the only real solution to the current weakness of the Canadian currency is for Ottawa to match the austere program in favor of Washington ” The two economies are too closely linked for Canada to maintain different priorities from the U.S.for too long, he said Specializing in

premier purveyor of traditional breakfasts, serving about 350.000 travelling meals of eggs, bacon and sausages A spokesman admits breakfast is the most popular meal on their trains, but its flavor is changing VVe have noticed in recent years that the continental breakfast has tended to become more popular, he said ‘ At one time hardly anyone would have thought of ordering anything but the full Knglish breakfast The trend these days is for a lighter type of breakfast.S\l h;s II U K BISKS That trend has meant sales of con tinental breakfasts have risen to 40 per cent of the breakfast total from 15 per cent The spokesman said businessmen are responsible for the shift since they buy most of the breakfasts on British Kails 350 restaurant cars."One might argue that the full Knglish breakfast is a victim of time and cost," the spokesman said, adding ihat quicker trains have meant less time to eat between departure and arrival Certainly for tourists, cost is the major factor when they turn down the traditional hefty plate of steaming goodies in favor of the bleak coffee and rolls that constitute a continental breakfast l.ast year.British Kail imposed large increases in the price of meals with breakfast rising 60 per cent in cost to 5 50 pounds — about $13.For that you get eggs, bacon, sausages, mushrooms, tomatoes, sauted potatoes, toast and marmalade.Another 30 pence —

to hold you all At the same time.Of course, the baby held the center stage The others climbed aboard, regardless of age, place - And sticky fingers grabbed, While peanut butter and jelly smooched my face.Oh, happy happy days we knew W hen life was young and new.Baby fell asleep at last And cautiously we tucked her in her bed And then the toddler’s time began.We rocked that old rocking chair to any old tune.•Red Wing" - “Yellow Rose of Texas" - “Old Kentucky Home".We sang until the Sandman came And then we kissed goodnight and after, “Now I Lay Me" we all “hit the hay”.As Daddy used to say, Tomorrow is another lovely day Yesterday is gone — and I am alone Rocking memories, now full grown Sleep well, my dears, and pleasant dreams.I promised I’d rock you until your feet dragged The days passed so quickly, I wish I could buy just "one more".NO QUESTIONS — NO ANSWERS Once upon a time, I had some friends I loved them and 1 thought they loved me We shared so many happy memories That I stored up inside me, to think for just such days as this is — I would be blue.l Rainy days and Sundays make me blue.) I like to go to church, on Sunday morning What matter where the mass is said I know that God is listening to every word that is said Senior citizens are not provided with a car Are we no longer of any account?Except to shed the falling tear, for lives we know We will not see on earth again So you go your way, and I will go mine And in my hand I’ll hold the cross That signifies, “He walked the lonely road with me — all the way — my comfort.” God, forgive you when your lonely neighbor cries.Both above poems by, EMMA E.R.PACKARD A DREAM AWAY The night beats upon my brain The passing of your love In endless pain Like a storm cast from above.Daylights whisper 8 hours dream away Lost somewhere in a tear The light of yesterday Your hair Still sweeps across my face so softly So black, so fair Now only a haunting memory Love lost, or freedom gained I’m not sure which the title should be But love lies in blood stain Deep inside of me Tell me, why try to win?Why t^y to live?When you know you’ll lose again For you have nothing left to give.AT LAST Let birds sing on high In perfect harmony, Too dizzy to fly, Yet so beautiful to see Let the sun rise red A ball of fire in flame Like a thought in my head At the mention of your name Let blue skies be grey Ominous and sinful For I have this day So full of you.At last, yes at last, I’m the happy one.I have forgotten the past, And I’m ready to face what’s to come.Because of you Yes, beautiful, wonderful you And all you do Makes my happiness true.Both above poems by MABLE HASTINGS Age 17 Mansonville, Que.COUNTY FAIR Summer is the time for fairs, They are plentiful, both big and small ; There’s one thing that detracts from them just a bit, They are certain harbingers of Fall.Preparations start early, away back in the spring To make sure everything’s ready in time ; Horse barns and cattle sheds, hog pens and fences Must jet their annual coat of lime.Horticulture and poultry buildings have to be well cleaned, Shelves and cages repaired and painted, If anything is missed or not thoroughly done This year’s exhibits might pick up disease or be tainted.When the “Big Days” get really close And the exhibitors start to arrive With their cattle and horses, swine and sheep Their flowers and cooking, the dead place comes alive.No fair would seem right without a mid-way, With its rides, side-shows and games.Like bingo, crown and anchor and baseball pitch And the barkers w ho call the crowd all sorts of names Close-packed crowds are a pick-pocket’s heaven So keep most of your money out of sight.In a well-hidden pocket or a money-belt Lest you find yourself a pauper before night Many of those, "Get rich quick" games use a shill or twc To demonstrate that anyone can win, Rut don’t gamble your next week's grocery money That looks as easy as sin Take a tour of the barns to see the animals.They are all trimmed up to look their best.And all that home cooking which surely smells nice.But you can’t taste it, even on request The knowledgeable teenagers have a contest all their ow n, And some of the lucky ones will have their day made.They will get a free ticket to the grand-stand show, By leading a calf in the livestock parade.When the late hour closes all the attractions.And everyone finds himself tired enough to drop, But your day at the Fair can hardly be considered complete If you haven’t stained your new white shoes in a fresh “cow flop”.HOW ARD GIBSON, Danville.Que.HOME-MADE RHYMES The following rhymes are all Irish-oriented, And there are doubtless dozens more like these ; But by changing the names and a word here and there They’ll fit just about any ethnic group you please.One March day Mrs.McCurdy walked up town Carrying some knitted goods she’d made in a sack, As she struggled up hill she said, “That wind is awfully strong, I sure hope it changes before I go back ’ ’ Mike was tall and lanky, while Mickey was short and fat.They always walked to the pub together and often also home; Mickey puffed, “Don’t walk so fast, Mike, we’re really in no hurry .” Mike replied, “If you think this is fast, come along some time when I’m alone.” O’Rourke like others of his time, often rode horse-back to town.One day he bought a bag of flour and was carrying it home on his back, When asked why he carried the flour himself he innocently replied, “I’m load enough for the poor horse without him also having to carry the sack.” Mrs McSweeny was a great one for preparedness, She kept kerosene and candles for emergency light ; She trained all her family to cut their fingernails left-handed Because some day they might lose their right.Tim O’Shaughnessy was a fisherman and had survived many a storm Until he gave his life for a mate he was trying to save ; His oft-stated wish was to be buried at sea, So his four brothers drowned digging his grave.Two friends were in California, looking up at a tall redwood tree.Said one, "It’s so tall its top goes beyond where I can’t see,” The other said, “That’s no problem, come on, let’s look together; You mark the spot where you leave off and leave the rest for me.” Bill Shannon’s old rubber boots were still good and waterproof, But were not high enough to recover his boat, which had drifted out to sea ; Said his daughter, “Father, give me the boots, I’m shorter, so they’ll come up higher on me.” Mrs.Carmichael found she was all out of sugar With a bunch of relatives soon due to come; Her son said, “Mother, why don’t you buy two bags at a time, Then when you’re Out, you will still have some.” HOWARD GIBSON, Danville, Que.OLD FOLKS’ NIGHTMARE Old age, I understood, is a time of ease, You won’t have to work and you can do as you please.The “no work” part makes life get duller and duller, The “do what you please” is a horse of another color.I don’t know who said that or what was his station But whoever said it did not anticipate inflation.A pension on which five years ago one could have lived just fine, Now leaves the same people near the poverty line.Since now, as always, any pleasure costs money.Today’s prices dictate molasses for breakfast instead of honey.Tt costs so much to drive his car to go visit one’s brother, Common sense tells him to leave it home because he’ll never have another.When their clothes begin to wear it causes old folks to worry For they know the way things are now they won’t get any new ones in a hurry.Even the food that they have, loses some of its taste, But they must eat every morsel for they have nothing to waste.I would say one thing that drives these people up the wall, Is paying income tax on their pension even though it is pretty small.What they find even harder to swallow in these pennywatching days, Is that their MP’s just voted themselves a $Ï5,000 raise.HOWARD GIBSON.Danville, Que.| * VOl'K STUFiP jusr aroülep a\e ¦-rzi t—ii—yv l'\\ SURE HE riPNI'T A\ean Ans thiNo fn n, s' c y .%F„ i ùJELL \ HAVE TO 5t V ?EApLIoE£ENT ;
