Affairs.The grants are designed to create jobs for welfare recipients, and pay 90 per cent of a weekly salary, to Opération Bénévolat a $200 maximum, for a period of at least 20 weeks.Hemmingford Township, the Village and Parish of St-Chrysostome, and St- Edouard are the municipalities named in press releases received this week from Quebec Municipal Affairs minister Jacques Léonard.Hemmingford Township will receive $4,000; the two St-Chrysostomes $16,000 each; and St-Edouard $8,000, under the program, which is expected to create a total of some 2,000 new jobs across the province, at a total cost to the government of $8 million.~ Seniors\u2019 housework scheme gets volunteer assistance Opération Bénévolat, the federally funded housework service for seniors, has found a new head office in Ormstown.As of February 21, the project headquarters moved from its first, temporary location in St- Chrysostome to an office in the Walshaven Residence on Hector St.in Ormstown.Ruins of a barn and outbuilding destroyed in last week's fire in Elgin.The telephone number is 829-3357.Group leader Daniaile Jarry told The Gleaner last week that she had already received some 50 requests from seniors and handicapped adults for help with heavy housekeeping chores such as washing walls, ceilings, floors, windows, and curtains as well as making minor repairs.\u201cThe number of calls is increasing

maple syrup season showing early promise by JUDY TAYLOR of The Gleaner As the first tentative plumes of steam rose from Chateauguay Valley sugar shanties this week, producers faced the 1983 maple syrup season with optimism.With little or no surplus syrup from previous years glutting the market, prices should hold around last year's level, and \u201cproducers are in good shape to make some money this year\u201d, Quebec Farmers\u2019 Association fieldman Harry Inns told The Gleaner.Over 60 producers attended the annual QFA Maple Meeting at Franklin on Tuesday, Feb.22, and set the local price for maple syrup at $3 per pint, or $5.50 per litre (about $22 to $24 per gallon).This situation this year is in sharp contrast to last season, when a large surplus of lower-grade commercial syrup had built up in co-ops and processing plants.A poor yield last year, especially in the Beauce area, caused the surplus to disappear, and local producers are now looking at not only a healthy market in the area and throughout the province, but also at potential exports, at leastin the case of the larger operators.While the syrup season is expected to swing into high gear within the next couple of weeks, warm daytime temperatures early this week saw some operators starting to boil.One such producer was Ormstown\u2019s Bill Bryson, who, with brother Donald, was boiling Monday in his Tullochgorum Road shanty.Although the quantity of sap collected by his pipeline was not yet sufficient to warrant firing up his oil-burning evaporator, Bryson was using hiswood- burning system to produce what he said was \u2018\u2018surprisingly good quality syrup\u201d for so early in the season.\u201cOnce we clear out any residue remaining in the system from last year, we should have really good syrup here,\u201d he said.In the Chateauguay Valley, where much of the syrup produced is of top quality and is sold locally or in Ontario through retail outlets or at the farm gate, grading of syrup has traditionally been done locally, most Donald Bryson keeps an eve on the evaporator as another maple syrup season begins.notably by Franklin's Norval Blair.But producers were informed at last week's meeting that the Quebec government intends to play an expanding role in grading large quantities of See MAPLE Page 2 Farm buildings razed $100,000 in damages result from Elgin fire by CYRIL ALARY of The Gleaner A barn and an out building on an Elgin farm were completely destroyed by fire on the evening of Tuesday.Feb.22, with damages estimated in the area of $100.000.The buildings.the property of Michelle Jarry of Montreal.were located at 2071 First Concession in Elgin.The fire broke out about 8 p.m., and firemen from Constable, N.Y.and from the Hinchinbrooke Fire Department were called in to fight the flames.They were unable to prevent the total destruction of the buildings.The Constable firemen remained at the site until the early hours of the morning.while those from Hinchinbrooke stayed only a short time.Officers of the Hun- tingdon detachment of the Provincial Police were also on the scene.They later called in the Mon- treal-based QPP special squad dealing with crimes against property, to continue their investigations into the origin of the hlaze.As of press time, there was no information as to its cause.Although cattle were normally housed in the barn.there were none inside at the time of the fire.and no stock were lost.H\u2019ford Fashion Show Sports news THIS ISSUE Letters to the Editor More English news la gazette Valti Brignone, un handicapé sans

G Editorial ENTER MARCH As this editorial is being written, steam is rising from some Chateauguay Valley sugar shanties, and across the street from The Gleaner office, some youngsters home from school, are riding bikes and tricycles up and down their bare driveway.Crows are flapping in their ungainly fashion around the bare fields, and people on Main St.are asking,\u201d \u201cCan it really be spring?\u201d All this as the calendar page is caught in the act of flipping from February to March.Traditionally, March in the Chateauguay Valley is an unpredictable season.While maple producers cross their fingers and hope for an unbroken succession of cool nights and warm sunny days, Mother Nature often digs deep into her bag of tricks and comes up with truly weird fluctuations between thaws and blizzards.Our school children swing between happy anticipation of their annual March break holiday and a slowly dawning realization that all those final examinations are not very far away.And this year in particular, March may well be the LY Gleaner files @ decisive month as far as determining whether the school year will be completed in a more-or-less normal fashion, or whether still more trying times face teachers, pupils, and parents as the education drama continues to unfold on several fronts.March is also income tax figuring month, as well as the time when laundry hung bravely on the outdoor clothesline may be retrieved wet, dry, or frozen from the line, or eventually located in a muddy field where the vagaries of the March wind have dropped it.Dogs leve March, when something in the canine brain snaps, and sends our pets charging into the wild, seemingly to attend an old-boys\u2019 reunion.Human beings are not immune from the restlessness that comes with warm winds and a surfeit of winter.Those of us who didn't make a pilgrimage to sunnier climates during winter's dark days may be seized with the longing to be somewhere - anywhere - else.Which is strange, when you come to think of it, because March is one of the most interesting months of the year, right here at home.100 years ago {from The Canadian Gleaner of Thursday, March 1, 1883) DEBATE AT ACADEMY There was a good audience at the Academy on Saturday evening, to listen to the first public debate of the scholars, who did very well.The question, Whether the Farmer\u2019s Life is a Happy One, was decided in the affirmative.SCALES CHECKED Mr.Dillon, inspector of Weights and Measures, paid this village a visit last week, and overhauled the balances and measures of our dealers.Quite a number were inaccurate, the none very far wrong.His fees were most moderate.SPURIOUS MAYOR?The Huntingdon County council at its first meeting on Wednesday next may be confronted with the presence of Damase Perron, who claims to be mayor of Ste.Barbe, and as such to sit at the Board.A COMPARISON (from The Toronto Globe) Fifteen years ago the provinces of Ontario and Quebec commenced separate life with an even start.Today Ontario has a surplus of $5,000,000 in her treasury, and is levying no taxes up upon her children.Today Quebec has a debt of $15,000,000 is levying harassing taxes upon the business community and is driven to her wits\u2019 end for revenue.RAILWAY DELAY The locomotive of Monday afternoon\u2019s train ran off the track east of St-Isidore, when the passengers had to get out and had a most unpleasant and wearisome time of waiting, the train not reaching Howick until 9 o'clock Tuesday morning.The report that got in circulation that a man was killed was incorrect; nobody was hurt.50 years ago From the Huntingdon Gleaner of Wednesday, March 1, 1933.IMPROVING THE FEMALE TEMPERAMENT Nagging wives were thus criticized many years ago by Doctor Oldfield: \u201cWhen you have a nagging wife, don\u2019t regard it as a sign of vixenish disposition, but tell her she is suffering from a lack of vitamin B, and give her a cup of hean tea every dav.with milk and (from The Huntingdon Gleaner of Wednesday, March 1, 1933) ladies by cutting off their tea supplies and all their animal protein.Put upon a convent dietary of perpetual Lenten abstinence from flesh food, and given cream and milk in place of tea, their evil tempers would he replaced by angelic beatitude.\"\u2019 COVEY HILL WISDOM The other day a seasoned farmer remarked to a younger man., \u2018One LEANER needs to load for the bad spots in the road.\u2019\u2019 Attention to this advice would prevent much abuse of horses and much ill-tempered profanity on the part of their drivers.But in a figurative sense the words convey perhaps as sage a truth as any of Benjamin Franklin's wise saws or Shakespeare's aphorisms.How much of disaster might be averted if the heads of households guided their affairs with an eye for the bad spots in the journey of life, temptation, financial depression, sickness and accidents.HEAVY SENTENCE Albert E.Ball, 50, was taken to the Barrie [ont] jail to serve 15 days imprisonment imposed Saturday when he was found guilty before Magistrate McCaughrin, of stealing one 36 pound lump of coal, worth 10 cents, from the yard of an Orillia, Ont., local company.PRESIDENT SECOND CLASS MAIL REGISTRATION NO 0733 US.REG.NO.USPS 580.300 THE LE ADING ADVERTISING MEDIUM IN THE CHATE AUGUAY VALLE Ÿ PUBLISHEDBY THE HUNTINGDON GLEANER INC.PALE P.O.BOX 130, HUNTINGDON, QUEBEC, J0S 1H0 -

it had left the scene to pursue me.The officers asked for my license and registration and told me to return to the scene of the accident, which I did, after asking what infraction 1 had committed under the Quebec Highway Code (I received no answer).Once parked on the roadside opposite the accident scene, I was told toremain in my car.À few minutes later one of the officers approached me with a large piece of paper and gestured toward the long skid-marks left by the tractor-trailer.The officer said the rig had missed the back of my car by only a few feet.As I read what I now realized was a traffic citation, I saw it stipulated a $200 fine, for \u2018\u2018endangering life\u201d.I tried to explain that I believed it was the responsibility of all motorists (as stated in Chapter 13 of the Highway Code) to give aid and assistance in the case of an accident.My passengers were appalled that I should receive a $200 fine and four demerit points, when they both knew why I had slowed down.It is a sad comment on today\u2019s society that a person receives such a fine for being willing to help a fellow human being.I can neither understand nor accept this, although I accept that fines are a legitimate measure to take against people intentionally breaking a law.After this experience, I must say that my desire to help my fellow motorists has been diminished - like almost everything else, caring about people has just become too expensive.David F.Biddleston Franklin Centre 827-2793 Project leader describes Travail-Québec services This week we would like to describe the services offered by Travail-Québec.If you called a manpower centre or your social aid office recently, the person answering vour call replied, \u2018\u2018Travail-Québec, bonjour\u2019.This greeting identifies the new network of the ministère de la Main- d'oeuvre et de la sécurité du revenu, which will be offering both manpower and social aid services.It should take about two years for this new system to be fully operational and then both services will be Nanton, 80 years From July 28 to August 1, 1983, the Town of Nanton, Alberta.will be celebrating its 80th birthday With great anticipation, we would like to extend a cordial invitation to all one- available from the same centre.)

well, and made the playoffs.The boys\u2019 A team won a bronze and the girls\u2019 A team finished fourth.The boys were the youngest in the league and with the way they were playing, promise to be

Roland Greenbank Huntingdon girls continued to show well in hockey action this past week-end as all four teams took to the ice.The Fillies split a two- game series at Russell, Ont., while Goal Diggers I were edging Massena 2-1 at home.Canadiennes managed a 2-2 tie against the Cornwall Bluebelles and Goal Diggers II had an unexpected uphill struggle against the ladies from Long Sault and salvaged a tie in the dying seconds.In Russell, Ont., on Friday evening the Fillies showed poise in coming back from a first period two goal deficit to win 4-2.Doreen Simpson and Dawn Empey gave the Warriors their early lead but the Fillies settled down and began to chip away.It was Karen Deyette who scored first for Huntingdon as she intercepted a pass at centre ice and sailed in to beat the Russell net- minder.On a second solo effort six minutes later Deyette tied the score.Fiona Beatties\u2019 first goal in competition proved to be the winner as she got control of the puck from a scramble in front of the net and directed it in to score.In the final frame, Patty Arnold fed the puck to Deyette who counted her third tally of the evening to put the game away.The coaches\u2019 choice of the game's outstanding players were the scorers Deyette and Beattie and left wing Tracey Reed who worked hard throughout.On Saturday morning, Russell played Raye Simpson in nets and this change made the difference for the Warriors\u2019 club.Huntingdon\u2019's skating and passing game improved over the performance of the evening before but Simpson kept the home net clean until late in the third period.In the meantime, despite the strong play of Patty Arnold and Christine Huot of the Fillies\u2019 defence and a good performance by Sophie Bergeron in nets, Russell counted twice.Carolyn McGee netted the first and what proved to be the eventual winning goal was scored by Lisa Chemey.It was Fiona Beattie who kept the Fillies from being shut out as she counted on a pass from Francine Duranceau.The Warriors come into Huntingdon next week-end for two games.A booming slap-shot from the stick of Joanne McGerrigle found the target and provided the winning margin as Goal Diggers 1 picked up their second win over the Massena Chicks in the past month.In the Friday night encounter at Veterans\u2019 Memorial in Huntingdon it was Tracey Smythe who struck midway through the first period to put the home club one up.Louise Brisebois and Genevieve Claessens assisted.McGerrigle's goal came with five minutes gone in period two.It looked like a shut-out for Elaine Donnelly- Simpson but with 1:22 remaining in the game McGerrigle was banished to the sin bin and finally the pressure of the power play proved too great and with eight seconds left Gleaner ads save time Bonnie Sullivan, assisted by Heather LaDuke, scored Massena's only marker.A goal by Terri Arthur and another by Lisa MacDonell, both in the third period, looked good enough to lead the Canadiennes to a win over Cornwall Bluebelles on Saturday morning, but Lori Dupuis spoiled it all as she scored for the visitors with only two minutes remaining on the clock, to produce a 2-2 tie.Cornwall had gone ahead in the first period on a goal by Lynn Currier, assisted by Lisa Delormier.Extra points on the Huntingdon goals were picked up by Macdonell, Tracey Tremblay on the first counter and Arthur on the second.Long Sault found themselves without the services of their regular goalie on Saturday morning but discovered a experienced replacement in the person of Judy Renaud.ex net-minder of the Huntingdon Goal Diggers.Judy and the Long Sault defensive unit came up with a strong game and turned aside the Goal Diggers attack while Nancy Servage was putting the visitors ahead with an early second period goal.The game appeared to be lost as Huntingdon picked up two penalties back to back in the last four minutes of the play but heroics by Lori Smythe and Nathalie Hatch resulted in the tying marker in the last minute of play.The (Cand The Canadiennes and Goal Diggers Il visit Cornwall on Friday evening while preparations go forward for the 6th annual Goal Digger Tournament here on

and in the closed coffin before us was the body of my mother.She had brought us here from the time we were babies, here to this little church overlooking the Bay of Chaleurs.There had been no tears when I received the news that she had died.She was old, frail, forgetful, and blind and had clung to life perhaps beyond her time.But now, as familiar faces in the choir rose to join the congregation in the singing of \u2018What a Friend we have in Jesus\u201d, wave aîter wave of emotion swept over me.My body began to convulse with feeling and tears flowed uncontrolled down my face.I could barely see my aunt at the organ.My thoughts focussed on my mother.This had been the last hymn she could play on our piano in the Manse in New Richmond.After my father had died in 1974, mother stayed with us for longer and longer periods, and by 1977 she was staying full time, sharing our son\u2019s bedroom.She had \u2018hardening of the arteries\u2019 and had trouble remembering.Once a great cook, now this activity was beyond her.All she could do in the kitchen was to help with dishes and sweeping.She could still crochet, making squares for colorful afghans, although this too became increasingly difficult for her as time went on.No Call to Worship by members of the Chateauguay Valley Ministerial Association after she lost her sight.The next year Mom took a bad seizure - and fell on the floor, convulsing, as if dying.She recovered - the doctor said that the seizure was caused by a restriction of blood flow to her brain.He found a suitable medicine to help.Her decline continued, as he had said it would, and she became more and more confused.She now needed help to dress and constant reassuring that she was not alone in the house.She spent the mornings alone with me or with a sitter as Shirley had begun teaching school half-days.I had to learn to help her take her many pills and with toiletting.She still liked to receive letters, but could no longer answer them even with our help.One of my daughters, then 15, was inspired to write these verses: \u201cYou say I'm trouble cause I'm slow - How many questions I ask, you'll never know - I get dressed all wrong, - I play the same old song, - I tell you my hands hurt so, - You tell me you already know.- Where's the promised me?- You were young, you're free; - Promises don't count any more, - and your life holds a lot in store.- But I ask one question please, - What about me?- They must have forgotten who I am, - They talk as if I'm not here.love you now longer able to concentrate - on television, or on reading stories, she found the time long.In the evening she liked to play scrabble, usually with my wife Don\u2019t you know who cared for you?- You know you were a baby too.- Now it\u2019s me who needs you.Shirley.She loved to meet - people, and to go with Shirley to all the UCW and Women\u2019s Institute meetings.The women greeted her warmly, but because of faulty memory she was unable to carry on conversation, and was torced to be suent after introductions were over.She took pride in introducing herself as the minister's mother.She loved receiving letters from her children far away, and because she forgot what she read, to our dismay she would read them aloud again and again.Sometimes she would get lonesome for home in Escuminac, and ask repeatedly \u2018How far is it to home?\u201d Do you think I could walk?\u201d \u2018Mem, it is 40 miles.\u201d \u201cSurely not that far!\u201d she would say.One day when we were busy, she did strike out unnoticed to go about one half mile before a neighbor brought ner back.She loved to ride in the car, inquiring as we drove along, \u201cWhose house is that?\u201d a question we tired of then, but one we would have loved to have heard What will you do?- Mom took a sore eye, which the specialist termed an infection, giving us the required drops.The next visit he termed it glaucoma, and blindness set in.Now at church on Sunday when the family left for church school some kind person would move to sit beside her.Her body gradually became stiffer - and she was unable to get around alone.She had to be almost carried upstairs, and the bed linen had to be changed each morning.She needed help and encouragement to eat her meals, and it became a difficult chore to get her to swallow her many pills, and some vile tasting ones she would hide under her tongue.Then in the summer of 1980 a series of renewed seizures brought her to hospital where she contracted pneumonia.Miraculously she lived, and was transferred to a hospital convalescent unit for English-speaking Quebecers 55 miles away in Cambeliton.NB.We care\u2018ully brought her back to us for Christmas and then again for Easter for the last time.In spite of her decline, she was always pleasant and mannerly with the hospital staff.Glad to have us visit, she knew our voices, although as time passed could not remember our names.Our hugs and kisses would bring her from her private world of the past where she was still doing some chore or caring for some child.On most visits she could join in the singing of a hymn and was always ready to bow in prayer.Her sense of humor remained, and she remained responsive to teasing.And always she would return hugs and kisses with vigourous ones of her own - surprisingly vigorous considering her stooped, frail frame.She always gave a double kiss, one for good measure.Blindnesss, forgetfulness, a shrunken body, did not dim her need to give and to receive love.The young minister was drawing his words of comfort to a close.When he finished I rose to thank him - then with my hand on the coffin I thanked everyone for their kindness to the family and also to Janet my mother, especially for any visits they may have made to her in hospital in spite of her inability to see or to remember.The past year was the International Year of the Senior Person.In her last years my mother helped me to be a little more human and to have a greater understanding of people who decline in physical and mental ability with advancing years.Above all she taught me that love should never end.The need for it doesn't.Oliver Carmichael, Franklin-Ormstown Pastoral Charge United Church Howick Mrs.Evelyn Lamb Unit C of Howick UCW met at Ruth Brown's home last week.They enjoyed a business session, fellowship and a program of learning how to crochet from Janet Tolhurst.The yards of practice chainis to be displayed at the next meeting.Refreshments and visiting finished out the eveingin.A pleasant holiday was spent at Lakeland, Florida by Ken and Evie Lamb, Lenora Brown and Eleanor Lissemore (from Street- sville, Ont.).The hospitality of Clarence and Viola Kerr was thoroughly enjoyed as were the warm
