security meeting held before the agenda at the regular could be assured by public one, as the latter ; meeting of Huntingdon another police force such started a good 15 minutes Town Council March 4 as the Quebec Provincial late.The motion was seconded concerned the holding of a referendum through which the city fathers would put the future of the Town's police force into the hands of the citizenry.It has been evident over the last meetings that the council would like to dismantle the municipal police department, hoping Police located just out of Huntingdon.Alderman Douglas Field put the motion to have a referendum forward without much explanation.\u201cThe referendum we discussed earlier,\u201d were the words used by Field.The word \u2018\u2018earlier\u2019'no doubt referred to a caucus , Inside: Exchanges A sharing of cultures has been going on in the Chateauguay Valley as European and western Canadian students have stayed in the homes of local families.Last October 10 we introduced Anna and Asa from Sweden.Since then the girls have developed a new impression of Canada and Canadians and they offer their views inside.Also inside and from Europe is a visitor to the Huntingdon Rotary.Alberta students, too, visited the Valley this week making visits to the Franklin Ecological Centre, Lubec, Cleyn and Tinker, and Grant's Bakery through their hosts at Arthur-Pigeon High School.Happy St.Patrick's by alderman Georges Lazure without further ado.Then a few seconds later, the meeting was adjourned.The decision to hold a referendum was taken in less than a minute.Not a first This is not the first time that Huntingdon has wanted to dismantle its police force.The same thing was tried back in 1978 when council voted to abolish its then seven-men strong police force.But following a court battle, the Town had to hire back its policemen.The force though, went from seven to four men.And ever since that day, the policemen have been living from day to day, never knowing when the force might be disbanded again.In June 1983, the council asked the Quebec Police Commission permission to reduce its police from four to three men.A short while before, the Town had transferred all criminal investigations to the Provincial Police.The Quebec Police Commission authorized the Town to cut down its police force on May 23, 1984, but under certain conditions.Nothing concrete has come over that matter up to now.If one man was cut, it would leave the town witout police patrol during one work shift.The Town asked the QPP to take over during that shift, but it seems the latter are short of staff and could not agree to the request.The police reaction The Fraternity of Municipal Policemen of Huntingdon were not long to react to the decision of the council.The union president Philippe Cardinal says that Huntingdon policemen have not had a salary in crease since 1978.All they got was a cost of living adjustment.Presently negotiating, the union has no intention of signing a contract as requested by the Town Council.The contract expired December 31, 1984 and since then only one real negotiating session was held.The municipal police have been negotiating since 1978 with the ever-present menace that either they fate of Town police force accept the contract or else the force is abolished.According to the union, the council would like the police to again renew the contract without any gain.Huntingdon Police underline the enormous disparity between their conditions and those of the Valleyfield Police where members earn $673, comparatively to $465 for the Huntingdon men.As far as holding a referendum is concerned, Cardinal would have preferred an opinion poll to be taken among the taxpayers.A poll would have given a better idea of what people really think.In closing, Cardinal wonders who will enforce the municipal by-laws if there is no police anymore.(By Cyril Alary, translated by R.Rougerie).A sip of sap The warm weekend had the sap running and maple syrup producers boiling.Dominic Deneault took a peek, then took a sip of the sweet sap at the Boyer farm in Havelock.Part IV: A new age agricultural tool by Phil Norton Microcomputers on the family farm have always been passed off as simply expensive toys to hook up to the television set.But more and more farmers are seeing computers in their futures as they realize their potential as important management tools.No one knows this better than several progressive dairy farmers in the St.Anicet region.Pierre Caza, vice-president of the Union des producteurs agricoles for that sector, says St.Anicet is the most computerized district in Quebec.While the provincial average stands at one computerized farm per 1,000 farms, St.Anicet has a ratio of 1:20, Old-timers' match Perhaps the

in Quebec are milk producers.Last fall, an article in the UPA newspaper, La Terre de Chez Nous.stated that 50-70 Quebecois farms are equipped with micro-computers for management.Statistics from the previous year showed that 23 percent of the province's dairy producers could foresee purchasing a computer in the next two years.The article stated that those most interested in making the move to the computer age are less than 35 years old and their herd production average is over 5,900 kilos per cow.The most important criteria are the farmer's mentality and his open spirit toward progress.Energy

followed a six-week course in Valleyfield to learn the computer's applications to farming and have since worked together to develop programs tailored to their own enterprises.After a year and a half

Ormstown Curling Club centennial by Jean McEwen Preparations are underway to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Ormstown Curling Club in 1986.Having been started in 1886 it is the second oldest club in the area.The original building was across the creek, a bit south of the present building and was replaced in 1890.According to an item in the Canadian Gleaner files of Thursday.August 21, 1890, \u2018\u2018the new curling club building is nearly completed.and measures 160ft.x 34ft.This was the building that was taken down in 1980 after 90 years.Apparently the original building included the spectator and club room area as well.When the present club room was built has not been determined, - as it stands now it has been remodeled many times.Since many of the early settlers were of Scotch descent.they were quite familiar with the sport of Curling which had originated in Scotland.Some of them may have played the game or heard parents and grand-parents talk about it.but it was in their blood.so to speak.Therefore it is not surprising that they used their ingenuity to fashion their own blocks.So.those first blocks were made of wood, probably cut directly from the end of a log and weighed 20-25 lbs.and were 12-15 inches in diameter.To add more weight, pieces of lead were sometimes inserted in the block.So, even before Ormstown was born, curling had already made its imprint on Durham (Ormstown\u2019s original name) There were no curling irons at this time, although it is reputed that some of Wolfe's Scotch soldiers around Quebec City fashioned the first irons by cutting cannonballs in two and attaching a handle - crude but effective! The first District Curling Association was formed in this area in 1879 with Dr.W.MacLaren as president.The clubs included were Ormstown, Fertile Creek, Maple Leaf from Georgetown area.Lorne from Allan's Corners and the Thistle Club from between the St.Etienne - St.Louis area.The first tournament was held on the river at Ormstown.near the present bridge.Following the days play.the Thistle Ciub was declared the winner.The final score is not known.nor the number of men on each side, but if the usual pattern were followed.there would be ten men to a side and a winner would be declared after 31 points hac been scored.No doubt our most famous curler was the late Mr MG MeGerrigle.A booklet will be published in 1986 including many of his amazing records.Needless to say.he had teams that went along with him.and these were the days of Iron Curling, though he kept on for many years in the Granite Game.He was the skip of one of the winning rinks in 1899 in the Quebec Challenge Cup and he repeated it again in 1949.50 years later.Possibly this was an accomplishment unique in the history of curling.At the turn of the century.the Ormstown Curling Club was regarded as the strongest curling club in the Canadian Branch as they held the Quebec Challenge Cup, the Jubilee and the Governor Generals cup for 3 consecutive years, and the club was only 14 years old! - So much for \u2018the old man's game! Centennial plans Now.to some of the plans for the centenary First.we plan to honour our two oldest living curlers, Mr.Floyd S.Rugar and Dr.JW.Mills.Also.a rather special celebration for Mr B.L.McGerrigle, 50 years as a member and active curler.In November.there are plans for a very old- fashioned bonspiel, - 24 ends.10 men to a team (they will play alternately).and the first team to score 31 puints will be the winner.Better bring along a lunch for that one!

to the hotel itself in the ensuing summer.The chief evidence against him was a statement he made to Fahey\u2019s detective in Montreal, in which he declared he was hired to do the deed for the sum of $225.(.).On Saturday, the tedious trial was ended by the jury returning a verdict of not guilty.This ends a case that has excited a good deal of interest around Cazaville, and into which some national

and dull columns of groups which meet monthly and report the same routines, rituals and names from town to town.I'd like to see these groups report some of the interesting ideas, facts, events, etc.of their groups, in indeed such things happen within their groups.So often the reports sound like a meeting of the bored.Yawn.How does anyone ever stay awake long enough to write down youth, both in the paper and in our community activities.The real local and real active people around here don't need to dwell on their roots and the achievements of their ancestors.They are busy today building their

not machines but manpower, mostly feminine, that rule Plant 5 by Ramona Rougerie Cleyn & Tinker\u2019s Plant no.5 does the inspection of the cloth pieces woven in Plant no.4, including samples.If faults are found in the cloth, they are corrected, through operations called \u201cburling\" and\" \u2018mending\u2019 The small 15,000 square foot mill, located on Lorne Street, has a homey atmosphere to it, because here its not machines anymore, but rather manpower (mostly femin- in) which reigns supreme.In its heyday, Plant 5 had up to 120 employees.Now it employs around 75, among whom there are only four men.Fewer employees in Burling and Mending means that the cloth manufactured now is of better quality and needs less corrective operations than before, thanks in part to the Sulzer looms which were mentioned last week.The manager of Plant 5 is Pierre Renaud who, at 33, has already accumulated 15 years\u2019 experience with the company.He's been manager of Plant 5 since 1980.Before, he was a foreman in Plant 4, then in Plant 6.Earlier.he worked briefly for the Computer Department.Renaud says it's a company policy to have future managers move around different mills as much as possible, so as to acquire first-hand knowledge of all the manufacturing processes.In this way.when there's a problem in another mill, they un derstand what's involved.To assist him in his task, the manager can rely on supervisor Bernard Charland, who has spent 38 years serving the company.Charland even remembers the exact date he started working, which was on October 9, 1946.He was employed then by the Spinning Mill.Three departments Plant 5 is divided into three departments and four different kinds of tasks: 1.Burling and mending on perches.2.Burling and mending on mending tables 3.Special mending Cloth inspection is considered a task by itself and employs seven people.The production cycle at Plant 5 is an average of three days.Cloth pieces come into Plant 5 rolled on beams, the way they came off the looms at Plant 4.The first operation consists of separating the pieces, some going to perch, the others to ordinary tables.\u201cAccording to the kind of cloth, we know which pieces require more work than others,\u201d says Pierre Renaud.Replacing one faulty.yarn with another is very painstaking and requires a lot of close work, as illustrated here by Mrs.Lucille St-Onge who's wearing special glasses for this particular task.Cloth pleces hable to present fewer problems are sent to one or the other of the eleven perches where operators will process the cloth as it unfolds on the perch.Perches are very large tables, set at an acute angle, with dual foot controls.one to make the cloth go forward, the other.backward.In spinning and weaving, ends have had to be tied together.The operator now trims these knots and pulls them to the back of the cloth so that they'll be ready to be sheared in the Finishing Plant.Another possible fault is uneven-sized yarn Sometimes, all the operator has to do is to pull out part of the yarn which is oversized In other cases, when the faulty varn extends over tou long a distance.the operator must take out a whole section and replace it with a yarn the right size The ladies always work with varn taken from the same piece of cloth they are mending.thus ensuring that repairs will hardly show at all To replace a faulty yarn with a good yarn, the emplovee uses a burling tool which looks like tweezers.Tying up the good yarn to the bad yarn, the employee pulls at the other end and the good yarn slides into place, replacing the faulty yarn Sometimes an end will be missing for some distance because, for one reason or another, the weaving loom didn't stop when there was a break.To repair this kind Mrs.Gladys Monette has worked 45 years for Cleyn & Tinker.She's seen here hard at work in the Special Mending Department.of damage, the must use a needle The operators in Plant 5 use three kinds of needles some, fine and short.are suttable for tightly woven cloth.other needles.fine and long.allow them to work faster: finally a third kind of needle 1s a big one.handy when dealing with bigger varn.All these needles have a rounded instead of a pointed head for two reasons: a point could divide up the varn while a rounded head doesn\u2019t.also a rounded tip prevents the yarn from shpping off the needle After the cloth pieces have been burled and mended on the perches, they drop directly into a ruck operator Mending tables About 60 per cent of the material received at Plant 5 goes on perch, while 4 per cent goes on the mending tables.Plant 5 has 32 mending tables set up at a less pronounced angle than the perch.The mending tables are very well lighted from underneath to allow the operator to see through the cloth Pieces processed here usually are more difficult to mend because they are more ughtly woven At Plant 5.the employees working on the mending tables are the only ones working on production according to a bonus system.Their pay 1s established according to the category of cloth they work on They are not asked to do major mending Jobs When the operators are finished with their work, about 94 per cent of the pieces go to inspection for checking.If the work is judged unsatisfactory.pieces can be returned to the operator responsible tor them About six per cent of the pieces processed on the regular tables have to go to Special Mending for major problems.Special Mending It was mentioned at the beginning of this write-up that Plant 5 is a rather calm place, compared to other mills.It happens that in the Special Mending room, it's quieter still.This photo taken last October shows employee Jean Leggett working on a perch in Plant.5.Mrs.Leggett is not presently employed atl the mill.The company holds no secrets for Plant 5 supervisor Bernard Charland who started working in the Spinning Department over 38 years ago.In the background are cloth pieces

landscape, with the Chateauguay River in the background.In this oasis of tranquillity.17 operators with magic in their fingertips work away at what would seem impossible tasks.For example.an end can be missing on the whole length of an 80-metre long piece of cloth.To replace it, an operator may have to work one whole week.There's no room here for impatient people.When the work is all done and has been judged satisfactory by inspection, the pieces are placed in trucks in a specific sequence, according to their lot number to be shipped to Plant 6.At the THE GLEANER \u2014 MARCH 13 1985 \u2014 5 same time, an identity card is filled out with the cloth category, design, color and piece number.Training school When Plant 5 needs new personnel, it has to do its own training and open up a school, every two or three vears, in order to fill the vacancies by employees retiring or leaving for other reasons.A very rigorous selection 1s made among those who want to follow the course.They are tested for dexterity, patience and good vision.Only 30 per cent of the would-be burlers and menders pass these preliminary tests.And out vf that 30 percent, only half will persevere throught the whole course.Once hired, the new emplovee will need about six months before she can do the job properly and another two years before she reaches the same speed as the experienced employees.While the average age of employees throughout the company is 36 years, at Plant 5, the average is a little bit higher at 39.On an average, employees have 16 years\u2019 experience.One employee is Special Mending, Mrs.Gladys Monette, holds the record with 45 years\u2019 seniority with the company.But even long-term employees never cease to learn, according to manager Pierre Renaud, because new patterns come out every day, bringing exciting challenges to the ingenuity and dexterity of the ladies in Plant 5.Committee for Retired People holds annual meeting The annual meeting of the Committee for retired and

farm, people looked at you funny.Even my father was reluctant to buy one.But now he sees the advantages too.\u201d -For Pierre, the advantages have been diminished costs due to better feed planning.Each cow has a computer record which constantly monitors her production, food consumption and weight gain.Feed prices are also updated regularly which can be plugged into the computer's nutrition formulas yielding a list of possible mixtures and their relative costs.The computer can also provide up-to-date accounting information, budget simulations, milk quota data (e.g.how much is left).and fertilizer balancing formulas similar to those of feed mixtures.Another simulation uses a spread sheet program to experiment with different crop types, sizes and costs.Thus the old pencil and paper method of field crop management becomes a simple push of the keys providing an endless list of possible planting schemes for the coming spring.\u201cWhen we bought our computers there were 20.000 programs available and it's increasing all the time,\u201d says Marcel.**There\u2019s no limit to the tasks a microcomputer can do.\" Both producers warn, however, that a computer can't do anything more than provide farmers with more management choices faster.They say it could never replace the agronome or manager, just serve him as a tool.\u201cThe computer's just a fancy adding machine with memory\u2019 Marcel admits.Mike Duncan of Ormstown has taken courses in farm computing and has seriously considered the advantages for his family's farm.But for computerizing dairy records he concludes, \u201cforget it.With ROP records and Dr.Whitehead\u2019s Herd Health Record Notebook, you don\u2019t need a computer program.\u201d Steve Gruber, Executive Secretary of The Quebec Farmer's Association, feels the general impression in the computer revolution is to go much slower with farmers.\u2018The government was pushing computers a few years ago, but I think the glamor\u2019s gone out of it,\u2019 he says.Pierre Caza notes that newspapers today have long lists of second-hand computers among the classified ads because the people who purchased them were deceived that the systems didn't do more on their own.\u201cThe only thing limiting the practicality of the computer is the farmer himself,\u2019 says Pierre.\u201cIt provides you so much more information but you still have to interprete it.It will never replace the technician.\u201d The two Cazas don\u2019t claim computers to be time- savers though.Each spends an average of one hour per day throughout the year at his keyboard and monitor.But the job done during that time pays off in the long run in greater efficiency of work time and energy use.Comparing the initial investment of a computer system to other machinery on the farm, one finds it very minimal.The Apple Ile computer with 128k memory.double disk drive, and dot-matrix printer were purchased for around $3,500.That's called the hardware.Some software, or programs on diskettes, may cost up to $2,000 for farmers.But the Cazas say it's best to buy a standard spreadsheet program for around $300 and build your own program for farm management.They found accounting programs that could be used by anyone with no experience in finances.Apple is known for such \u2018user friendly\u201d software.As for existing farm programs.Siga Informatique Inc.and Agri-gestion Laval cat the University of Laval) are the main two companies in Quebec.The Co-op federée is also developing farm programs, the Cazas say.Grassroots, a well-known agricultural information service has a Quebec counterpart, Mediagro.Marcel Caza subscribes to this data service for $130 per year which provides him with weather and stock market information daily.Although that\u2019s not enough to do intensive management.he says the service has developed over the past year and he looks forward to more improvements as other farmers buy computers and go \u201con-line.\u201d The St.Anicet Huntingdon region farmers hold an advantageous location as they can tie into another data bank called Datapac without paying long- distance tolls.The line goes through Valleyfield giving access to resources all over the world.It's a local call plus five cents a minute.Pierre Caza thinks many more producers will join in to use the computer as a farm tool.Many compare the arrival of the computer to the arrival of the tractor,\u201d he says.For those wishing to make a step toward agriculture\u2019s next era.the St.Anicet UPA is sponsoring an information day on farm computers.It will be held at the Mont de l'Immaculée from 10 am.to 4 p.m.Featured speakers will include representatives from Magisystem computer store in Valleyfield, Siga Informatique and Dussault Agri Service.Participants are asked to register by March 15 by calling 264-5480.264-3973, or 264-4363.| | & Brownies On Monday, Feb.11, a card party was held at the Legion to

(1971-81), Statistics Canada reveals that 97 percent of the province's English-speak- ing farmers stayed.This stability may well be attributed to an organization run by volunteer farm leaders who are dedicated to working on behalf of English-speaking farmers and the rural community of Quebec - the QF A.The Quebec Farmer's Association which began in various regions as a social organization has evolved into an important voice for Quebec agriculture.It now serves in providing farm information through publications and workshops; representing the rural community viewpoint at government and national farm conferences; bringing local farmers and families together at social functions; and studying the economic needs (lo find solutions to problems in marketing, transferring farms, and obtaining loans.All in all, the QFA aims to find a permanent place and role for those 4,000 English- speaking farmers who have chosen to stay and live in the Quebec of the 80s.The QF A has succeeded in having French-language government documentation translated and is recognized nationally as the voice of English- speaking rural Quebec.For instance, two QFA delegates attend the Canadian Federation of Agriculture congress where they are able to express the Quebec farmers viewpoint.Landmark achievements include convincing the Quebec Department of Agriculture to provide its MAPAQ Newsletter in English and getting the CSST to print Women's Compensation forms in both languages.Through regular meetings and workshops with the CBC, QFA representatives have proven that life does exist off the island of Montreal.Local branches have built their own success stories, for instance, in 1982, when the Gaspé QFA started a livestock auction.Farmers, formerly isolated from any major auction barn, can now market their animals right at home in the New Richmond Fairgrounds.The endeavour has paid off well - $1 million in sales over the first three years.The Quebec Farmers\u2019 Association's provincial headquarters is in Dorion on the west island of Montreal.From this office Executive Secretary Steve Gruber coordinates the efforts of appointed provincial officers and the local QFA branches.It is here that he and Managing Editor of the Quebec Farmers\u2019 Advocate Newspaper, Hugh Maynard, gather the in- formation that English speaking farmers of Quebec have come to depend on.COMPLETE PIANO SERVICE WN Bo, 3 MEIC | gms Tuning, Repairs 829-2831/3517 Reconditioned Pianos for sale WE CAN'T TELL A LIE.For the best signs and the nicest lettering.call B.Harrison.(Franklin Studio).827 - 2392 À A SIGN OF QUALITY | Through the QFA's monthly newspaper, The Advocate, all members across the province have access to the latest news in farm policy.Gruber is quick to point out that Advocate articles are not simply translations of the UPA's La Terre de Chez Nous but are original works that stimulate thinking.Last year the QFA published four books providing in-depth looks at Quebec's beef, sheep and milk production and how to establish a farm transfer plan.QF A workshops offer members the chance to hear and question agricultural experts, for instance, in the Chateauguay Valley where hundreds of producers have turned out to hear speakers from New York's Cornell University on crop management and from Macdonald College on marketing and sugar maple dieback.The Brome-Mississquoi and Ayer's Cliff branches have arranged bus trips to take farmers to the experts and to tour model farms.Through his continuous contact with the provincial board and directors from each local branch, and through his own regular visits to branch meetings, visits to farms across the province and regular interviews with governemnt and farm agencies, Gruber hoids a global view of the association\u2019s functions, its past successes, and its future challenges.Providing farm policy and technical information is what Gruber believes is one of the QFA's primary roles.Providing a communications network between membership branches and other farm groups is also high on the Provincial QFA priority list.\u2018The QFA is an Association that brings together the English- speaking farm and rural community, says the Executive Secretary.\u201cThe QFA wants to be a partner with the French- speaking community and to participate in the decision-making process in present-day Quebec.\u201d No individual better radiated the spirit of the QF A than the Association's current Provincial President, Warren Grapes.\u2018\u2019An organization is only as good as the people working for it,\u2019 was how Provincial Vice-President Gerald Duncan introduced Grapes at an annual banquet.Grapes had driven three and a half hours one way from his home in Sawyerville to share a few words of inspiration with the QFA branch in Huntingdon.He returned home that night on icy roads.It is such dedication to the betterment of farm life and the rural community of Quebec that had Warren Grapes re-elected last November.His modest .down-home personality and constant contact with members makes him the ideal representative of an organization whose members are of a similar spirit.\u201cWarren knows practically every English-speaking farmer in the province.\u201d claims Diana Frizzle of the Brome-Mississquoi branch.And in fact, he has been just about everywhere in Quebec since beginning as the QFA's sole fieldman when the Association began.| Personal contact with members by the Association's top officials is what sets the QFA apart from larger farm organizations.Grapes says that while a farmers\u2019 union, for instance, works generally from the top down in decision-making, the QFA works from the grossroots up.\u201cWe don't walk in and tell members what we want to do,\u2018 he says.\u2018*Suggestions come from the bottom - the farmers - and move up through the directors to the top where we act on them.Then, we come back for confirmation of what they want and, once the members okay it, we go to the appropriate organization with a resolution.\u201d Grapes points out another difference which he believes is important in setting the QF apart from other farm associations.\u201cQFA members want to belong,\u2019 he says.\u201cIf not, they just don\u2019t pay their dues next year.Everything is done voluntarily.\" Besides being a full-time dairy farmer with a purebred Holstein herd and a part-time instructor at Champlain College in the agricultural program he helped establish, Warren Grapes also serves on his local municipal council, the Cookshire Fair Board, and as an adult advisor to a branch of the Quebec Young Farmers.That's rural energy.The same rural energy flows through all veins of the QFA.Association directors are not the kind to sit back and wait for compensation pay or government grants.They are farmers, used to hard work and willing to invest personal time in improving their com munities.As current President Warren Grapes said, *\u2018In its beginnings the QFA was just handling fire engine calls - dealing with the urgent, drastic needs of its members.Now we're caught up on those and we've had time to publish information booklets and provide membership benefits such as insurance plans.In the future we can concentrate on enhancing rural life in the areas of health service and education.\u201d The backbone of the Quebec Farmers\u2019 Association is its local branches - 10 in all - spanning from the Pontiac Valley in West Quebec to the Gaspé Peninsula.They range in size from 20 members to 200 and respond to the specific needs of each Provincial Fieldperson Diane Frizzle.region.All branches large and small send representatiaves to the provincial QFA Board of Directors and are given an equal say in decisions made.In addition to having its own board of directors to decide the course of programs and activities for its area, each local branch has a fieldperson who carries out the board's mandates by contacting guest speakers, reserving meetinghalls or buses, publicizing QF A events and mailing newsletters to members.Diana Frizzle has served as the fieldperson for the Brome-Mississquoi QFA for the past several years.Amidst her chores as a dairy farmer and mother of three, as well as being a 4- H leader, Brome Fair director and Chairperson of the Land Improvement Committee, she finds time to keep the local QFA (one of the largest branches) running smoothly.She believes the QFA's original role in bringing English-speaking farmers together is still its most important function.Even the format of the information meetings leaves official time for socializing.She says lunch is very important at such meetings because farmers get to talk to each other and conversations naturally turn to \u201cfarm talk\u201d.The scheduling of activities takes into account the farmer's calendar.Information workshops and crop contests are spread throughout the _ year but are held mostly in mid-winter and early spring when the work is slower.Last June, the Ayer's Cliff QFA managed to squeeze in a bus trip to Pennsylvania between seeding and the start of haylage.Meetings usually run from 10 to 3, that is from just after morning milking to right before evening chore time.Although the fieldperson is an appointed position and remains year after year, Diana Frizzle attributes the Association's solidity to the 20 local directors who are elected each year.Doug MacKinnon, a well- known farm figure near Coaticook, has been a QFAer as long as anyone.He is the current President and a founding member of the Ayer's Cliff branch.He is also a full-time dairy farmer and municipal councillor as well as President of the Stanstead Agricultural Society, and President of the local mini- sector of the UPA, INTERESTED IN DRIVING LESSONS?MAGS DRIVING SCHOOL HAS NOW A BRANCH IN HUNTINGDON TO GIVE YOU A BETTER SERVICE FOR INFORMATION AND REGISTRATION CALL 264-6298 HOURS: « MONDAY 9AM.-6 P.M.«

social organization.\u2018After 20 years with the QFA' he says \u201cThe first Thursday night of the month is something 1 really look forward to.People are so thinly dispersed out here that the goal of the QF A is to bring us together, to be able to talk to our own people in our own language.\u2018 Over eighty families are members of the Aver's Cliff QF A and the branch is self-financing most income accruing from the food sales booth at the Fair run by volunteer QFA members.Much of the revenue raised, says MacKinnon.is offered as scholarships.The Ayer's Cliff QFA has some French members who like the information sessions, bus trips, and com\u2019 unity spirit.MacKinnon says all are welcome to join - and encouraged to - French and English alike.But he notes that the QF A is not attempting to assimilate the two cultures; both groups accept that they are different.\u2018We don't laugh at the same jokes\u2019' he says.The English community around Ayer's CIliff- Stanstead is experiencing what most of the province is: no new English- speaking families are moving in.The new laws which prohibit children to attend English schools unless one or both parents went to Quebec English school, for example, has added to the stagnation of immigration, MacKinnon claims.\u201cThe QFA is holding together what English community there is.\u201d He feels the French- speaking community does not accept that the anglophones in Quebec are a minority.\u201cThey say North America is almost completely English, which is true but our daily life is here in Quebec where the situation is mostly French.\u201d Although the QFA is not trying to assimilate French and English, MacKinnon stresses the fact that the two must cooperate.To this Canadian apples year round by

secure on your farm and in your home?I doubt it; and so does the Union des Producteurs Agricoles.I had an interesting meeting in my office with Ms.Josée Primeau from the UPA office in St.Remi.The purpose of the meeting was to discuss the need for accident prevention information in the farming community.Ms Primeau is working as part of a 6month long Canada Works project in conjunction with UPA concerning the need for farm safety instruction throughout Quebec.There are about thirty people working on this project in all the farming regions of Quebec.This is the first project of its kind undertaken by the UPA.Other organizations, such as the Commission de Santé et Securité de Travail.have conducted projects in some areas, but there has not been a province wide effort.One of the lengest run local projects is actually a Department of Health program working in the Richmond area, mainly in the elementary schools.That effort involves the Ministry of Education and the Centre Hospitalier Universitaire in Sherbrooke.It's refreshing to see a farm organization finally getting involved in Farm Safety.The other refreshing part of this effort is the recognition that in certain areas it's necessary Lo have information in English.Ms.Primeau said that English information will be available in the four or five areas of the province where a large population of English farmers live.In her case, she will cover all of agriculture region 7 and she wants all the farmers involved.At present, there is a series of French language accident prevention courses being developed for use later in the project.These will also be made available in English where needed and this, naturally, is why we at Macdonald College may get involved.Ms.Primeau is also taking a bit of a different approach by involving womens' groups.Let's face it, quite often it is the farm wife and mother who is the most concerned and safety conscious.If both men and women are involved, it will accentuate the fact that this is a family affair.She says that the UPA has already proclaimed March 30th to April 6th as Farm Safety Week.The activities of that week are still in the planning stages but the hope is to involve all farmers.To get more information, and to get involved, farmers should contact their local UPA representative.end, the QFA encourages its members to become more involved with the UPA which is supposed to represent all farmers in the province.Doug MacKinnon is setting the example as he serves on both the QF A and UPA local branches.He says both organizations have a role to play.Cooperation between the QFA and UPA reached a new level when Jeannine Neveu held the office of Provincial President.Her perfect bilingualism and lively personality established a dialogue and

International Conference on Constitutional Law dealing with \u2018the rights of minorities\u2019 on March 5, 6,7 and 8, 1985 at Chateau Frontenac, Quebec City.Janet Hicks, Director of Communications and Maurice King, President of CVESPA attended the conference.The theme of the conference was a quote from Gandhi, reminding us that Alzheimers Disease: by Vicki Hamilton Alzheimers disease is a difficult disease to diagnose.Early signs of the disease are quite subtle and many signs may be a result of another condition.Alzheimers disease is the gradual deterioration of the brain over a time space of months or years.In its first stage it becomes hard for the patient to learn new things and difficult to remember recent events.In the second stage the memory continues to deteriorate while the person looses other abilities such as the ability to communicate - and possibly the ability to go about their daily activities without guidance.In the third and final stage, which may last for years, the patient is likely to need around the clock nursing or hospitalization to treat the increasing physical disabilities and illness.Alzheimers patients need a lot of time and understanding, which requires patience from the care-giver.However, the care-giver also needs support.It is not easy to watch someone you know and love become oblivious to who you are.While we wait for some kind of help for this disease, a group has begun to offer information and support to the care-givers as well as anyone else who would like to find out more about this disease.A meeting will be held at the Huntingdon CLSC, 163 Chateauguay St., at 7:30 p.m.on Wednesday, February 6th.This meeting will feature a film on life with an Alzheimers patient.© BAR © DINING ROOM © MOTEL Serving Meals Saturday &

Cuéllor, Secretary General of the United Nations was a guest speaker at the conference and Mr David Lewis, Canadian Ambassador to the United Nations also attended.Canada, due to its linguistic duality, its multiculturalism, and its native people is, by its very nature, a land of minorities.The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms promulgated in 1982 enshrined certain rights of minorities for individuals as well as for groups.However, the question of linguistic minorities was not addressed in this document.Prime Minister Mulroney, Minister do Justice and Attorney General of Canada, John Crosbie, and the Secretary of State for External Affairs, Joe Clark, made presentations to the Conference.The Quebec Government has not accepted the Canadian Constitution and is arguing that the

municipalités du Village d\u2019Ormstown et de la paroisse Saint-Malachie, alors qu'ils recevaient leur tout nouveau camion à incendie.La commande pour ce camion avait été faite, à la suite d'une ouverture de soumissions, en juillet 1984, et le camion a êté livré samedi par la firme Pierre Thibault de Pierreville.L'escouade volontaire à Ormstown compte maintenant deux camions- pompes, un camion- réservoir et une unité- secours pour combattre un incendie.Ce nouveau camion de marque GMC diésel avec une pompe de 1 050 gallons à la minute.Le camion aura coûté aux deux municipalités la jolie somme de 96 000$.Pour le complèter, d\u2019autres pièces d'équipement ont ete achetées conjointement par les deux municipalités et 'escouade.Le Village et Dans Huntingdon: Saint-Antoine Abbé - Par I'élection d'un nouvel exécutif, l'Association du Parti québécois de la circonscription électorale de Huntingdon a été ressuscitée.Le tout s'est déroulé le mercredi 6 mars à la salle Aux Joyeux Lurons à Saint- Antoine Abbé.Le nouvel exécutif sera présidé par Bernard Fournelle de Franklin Centre.Par ce regain de vie, la tutelle imposée par le Conseil national du parti sur l'Association locale a été levée.Les militants du PQ dans Huntingdon ont tenté à Les maires Jean-Paul Riendeau et Gilles Brunet, respectivement de la Paroisse Saint-Malachie et du Village d'Ormstown, remettent symboliquement les clefs du nouveau camion à incendie au chef des sapeurs, Jim Barrington (au centre).la Paroisse débourseront chacun 5 000$, et il en est de même pour l'escouade.Ces équipements se résument à des boyaux: on y retrouve 1 500 pieds de boyau de 2-1/2 pouces, et 2 000 pieds de boyau de 1-3 4 pouces.En mai prochain.le chef des sapeurs, Jim Barrington, espère que quelques reprises d'élire un nouvel exécutif, et à chaque fois ils se butaient à une manque flagrant de membres.L'Association a donc êté mise en tutelle par le Conseil national, et Roger Paré, député de la circonscription de Shefford, a été nommé parrain du comté.| Cette nouvelle tentative, le 6 mars dernier, a réussi.Un groupe de militants et militantes ont travaillé fort ces derniers temps pour remettre en marche l'Association.En plus Fournelle à la présidence, de Bernard l'achat de 500 pieds de boyau de 4 pouces se fera.ce qui complètera l'équipement nécessaire pour ce nouveau camion à

mettre entre les mains des résidants de la Ville l'avenir du corps de police.I appert, selon les dernières rencontres, que le conseil aimerait bien abolir la Sûreté municipale, tout en espérant que la sécurité sera assurée par une autre force comme la Sûreté du Québec.L\u2019échevin Douglas Field a proposé la mise en marche du processus référendaire, en expliquant très peu ces propos.\u2018Le

dit, faisait certes allusion au caucus tenu par le conseil avant la rencontre publique, puisque cette dernière débuta avec une quinzaine de minutes de retard, Cette proposition a été appuyée par l\u2019échevin Georges Lazure, et le tout a été adopté sans aucun soubre-saut.Quelques secondes après, on procéda à la levée de l'assemblée.En mois d\u2019une minute, cette décision a été prise par le conseil lors de cette assemblée publique.C\u2019est ainsi que le processus de la tenue prochaine d\u2019un referendum sur cette question sera mis en Journée pour les femmes Sainte-Martine - Un séminaire pour les femmes en agriculture aura lieu le jeudi 21 mars prochain a la salle Saint-Jean Baptiste a Sainte-Martine.Cette journée est organisée par le Comité des femmes en agriculture de la région Saint-Jean- Valleyfield, le tout en collaboration avec l'Union des producteurs agricoles du Québec et le Service de l'éducation des adultes de Chateauguay-Des Moissons.Les principaux sujets qui seront abordés sont : * l'endettement sur les fermes: * les besoins de garde en milieu agricole: s le transfert de ferme.Des personnes-ressources participeront a cette importante rencontre au cours de laquelle on s'efforcera de donner le plus d'information possible.La salle Saint-Jean Baptiste à Sainte-Martine est située au 13 rue Ronaldo-Bélanger.La rencontre doit débuter vers les 9 heures, pour se terminer vers les 16 heures 30 marche.Pas la première fois: Ce n\u2019est pas la première fois que la Ville de Huntingdon souhaite l'abolition de son corps de police.La première tentative remonte à quelques années.En effet, c\u2019est en 1978 que la Ville, par une décision de son conseil municipal, acceptait l\u2019abolition de son corps de police, lequel était composé alors de sept hommes.Mais, à la suite d\u2019une bataille devant les tribunaux, la Ville était forcée de reprendre les policiers.Le corps, cette année-là, passait de sept à quatre hommes.Deux jeunes agents se trouvaient un emploi a la Sûreté municipale de Valleyfield, et un autre déménageait en Ontario pour occuper un poste d'agent de sécurité.Il semble que la Sûreté municipale de Hun- tingdon vit au jour le jour, depuis 1978, mais toujours avec cette épée de Damoclès qu\u2019est la menace d'abolition.En juin 1983, le conseil municipal demandait à la Commission de police la permission de réduire son corps de quatre a trois hommes.Peu de temps avant cela, le conseil confiait le mandat de toutes les enquêtes criminelles au détachement de Hun- tingdon de la Süreté du Québec.Cette réduction a fait l\u2019objet d'une autorisation en principe le 23 pai 1984 de la Commission.Le tout était conditionnel a la remise d\u2019un rapport et des recommandations du comité de reclassement au sujet du policier touché par cette réduction.À ce jour, rien de concret n\u2019a été fait en ce sens.Si cette réduction devait prendre effet, le conseil aurait à couper un quart de travail, laissant ainsi la Ville sans patrouille pendant cette période.La Ville, semble-t-il, aurait aimé que le détachement de Huntingdon de la Sûreté du Québec prenne en charge cette période, mais c\u2019est impossible à cause d\u2019un manque de personnel.La Fraternité réagit : A cette nouvelle, la Fraternité des policiers \u2014 ANNONCES CLASSEES 264-5364 SN municipaux de Hun- tingdon n'a pas tardé à réagir.Son président, Philippe Cardinal, a indiqué que les policiers à Hun- tingdon travaillent depuis 1978 sans avoir obtenu une hausse de salaire.On leur consent seulement la hausse du coût de la vie.Présentement en négociation.la Fraternité n'a pas l'intention de signer un contrat de (travail comme l'exige le conseil.Le contrat a pris fin le 31 décembre dernier, et une seule véritable rencontre de négociations a été tenue entre les deux parties.\u201cOn négocie depuis 1978 avec la menace, soit qu\u2019on accepte le contrat ou le corps est aboli\u201d\u2019, de dire Philippe Cardinal.Selon la Fraternité, le conseil aimerait que les policiers signent le renouvellement de la convention collective, sans aucun gain possible.C\u2019est le statu- quo pur et simple selon elle.Pour un policier municipal, il y existe une disparité énorme entre Huntingdon et Texte de Cyril Alary Valleyfield, mais pourtant ce sont les mêmes caractéristiques de travail que l\u2019on retrouve aux deux endroits.En 1984, un policier municipal à Valleyfield gagne tout près de 673$ comparativement à 465$ à Huntingdon.Une telle situation, selon Philippe Cardinal, démontre clairement que les policiers municipaux de Hun- tingdon ont fait leur part depuis quelques années.Quant à la tenue d\u2019un referendum le président de la Fraternité aurait mieux aimé que ce soit un sondage.De cette façon, dit-il, le conseil de la Ville aurait vraiment l'opinion des gens de la municipalité.Le président a terminé en soulignant l\u2019aspect suivant: le conseil municipal adopte des règlements mais pe veut pas les faire appliquer.On parle des diverses périodes de stationnement, mais, sans les policiers, qui verra à leur respect.Il va sans dire que ce dossier sera à suivre au cours des prochaines semaines.Echange Alberta-Québec Cette semaine.la région de Huntingdon a l'honneur d\u2019avoir la visite de vingt-six jeunes de l'Alberta.lesquels participent à un échange avec des élèves de la Polyvalente Arthur-Pigeon.Ville de Huntingdon: Aucune aide financière à la foire annuelle Huntingdon - La Ville de Huntingdon ne participera pas financièrement à la réalisation de l'exposition annuelle de la Société d'agriculture de Hun- tingdon.C'est ains: que la demande d'aide financière faite au nom de la Societe par la secrétaire E.Me- Naughton a été accueillie par le conseil à sa rencontre du 4 mars.L'échevin Douglas Field a proposé que le même montant que l'an dernier soit versé à la Société d'agriculture en vue de la préparation de la foire agricole de 1985.Cette proposition a reçu l'appui immédiat de lécher - Richard Grant.Le premie à s'objecter a cette proposition a été l'échevin Georges Lazure.1] a dit que la Ville offrait gratuitement des service à la foire agricole sans avoir à donner une aide financière qui ne rapporte rien à Huntingdon\".Les services que l'échevin Lazure fait allusion.semble-t-il, la cueillette quotidienne des ordures ménagères.la pose de clôtures a neige a différents endroits.L'échevin Lazure a précisé que la Ville pourrait continuer à donner les mêmes services, mais s'objectait carrément à donner 200$ comme l'année dernière.C\u2019est à ce moment que le maire Gérald Brisebois a demandé le vote.Comme il était à prévoir.les échevins Field et Grant ont voté en faveur de la proposition de donner 200$ a la foire.Toutefois.les echevins Lazure, Normand Nadeau et Claude Bourassa ont vote contre.L'échevin Cyrille Riendeau était absent.La proposition a ete rejetée, et l'exposition agricole de Huntingdon ne recevra pas d'aide financière de la Ville de Huntingdon.Le maire a tout simplement dit.à la conclusion du débat sur cette question, que ex position organisée l'été est reconnue comme l'exposition de Huntingdon et non pas de Hinchinbrooke.De plus, il doit être mentionné que la Municipalité régionale de comté du Haut-Saint- Laurent accorde une aide financière de 1 000$ à la foire de Huntingdon; de ce montant, la Ville y participe par ses quotes-parts.La demande écrite de la Société d'agriculture de Huntingdon notait entre autres que la préparation de la foire 1985 est en marche, et que l'on espère recevoir le même montant sinon plus de la Ville.La Socièté recevra moins en 1985. 16 \u2014 LA GAZETTE \u2014 LE 13 MARS 1985 Un peu de tout Districts + La ville de Salaberry de Valleyfield

boucane Sainte-Barbe - Lorsqu'à l\u2019automne 1975, je me suis assis pour la première fois à la table du Conseil de comté de Huntingdon comme maire de Sainte- Barbe, mes pieds avaient heurté de curieux objets sous cette fameuse table.Un coup d'oeil discret m'avait permis de con- Stater que trois ou quatre \u201ccrachoirs\u2019\u2019 se côtoyaient comme de véritables objets de collection à mon sens, et j'avais bien hâte de voir qui allait en faire usage.J'ai observé durant neuf années et je n'ai jamais vu personne en faire usage et encore aujourd'hui il en subsiste quelques-uns, lesquels se retrouvent sous le banc réservé: à l\u2019assistance dans la salle du conseil.Ces fameux crachoirs pourraient cependant connaître un regain de vie inespéré grâce à une proposition de Gérald Pinsonneault, nouveau maire de Sainte- Barbe.En effet, ce dernier a cru bon mettre au vote une proposition pour éliminer la fumée dans la salle du conseil en interdisant ou presque l'usage des tabacs durant les délibérations.Tournoi régional de ballon Huntingdon - La Ligue de ballon glace de Huntingdon a été choisie pour présenter le cinquième tournoi annuel du 16 et 17 mars.Ce tournoi annuel pour les catégories sénior et intermédiaire permettra aux équipes victorieuses de représenter le Sud-Ouest au championnat provincial qui se tiendra les 5, 6 et 7 avril aux arénas Rodrigue Gilbert et Roussin de Montréal.A la Patinoire régionale de Huntingdon, on retrouvera des équipes provenant de la Ligue de Vaudreuil et de celle de En empêchant les fumeurs de satisfaire leur besoin, cette proposition pourrait peut-être ranimer désir de \u2018\u2019chiquer\u2019\u2019 et faire réapparaître les fameux crachoirs.A la MRC, certains manquent visiblement d'imagination ou souffrent de certaines maladies qui nous sont inconnues pour empêcher le préfet de fumer son cigare et les quelques autres la cigarette.Comme l\u2019on pouvait lire dans le Gleaner il y a quelques semaines, les bruit des purificateurs d'air va sûrement déranger nos élus et j'y ajouterais la possibilité des chiqueurs et des cracheurs, cela ne sera pas drôle.Imposé le non fumage à quelques-uns, c\u2019est un peu comme une petite loi 101 quant on pourrait tout simplement inciter.Il faut suivre le dossier car les maires qui ont appuyé cette proposition vont sûrement faire de même dans leur conseil local et il sera surprenant de voir la performance du maire de Sainte-Barbe avec les six conseillers fumeurs.Il ressort de ce point une situation un peu cocasse, Huntingdon.Cette dernière existe depuis 1970, et s'est affiliée en 1977 à la Fédération de ballon sur glace du Québec.L'an dernier, la formation du Dépanneur La Madeleine de la Ligue de Vaudreuil s'était trés bien classée, se méritant même la médaille d'argent en classe intermédiaire au championnat provincial.Les représentants de la Ligue de Huntingdon souhaitent que plusieurs spectateurs seront au rendez-vous afin d\u2019encourager leur équipe favorite.Le 16 mars, les Congrès de l'UMRCQ Huntingdon - Le prochain congrès de l'Union des municipalités régionales de comté et des municipalités locales du Québec aura lieu à Montréal les 12,

été louée à l'hôtel Reine Elisabeth où se tiendra les assises annuelles de cette union.C'est tôt pour faire une réservation, certains diront, mais c\u2019est la seule façon véritable de s'assurer d'avoir une place à l'endroit même ou le congrès a lieu.| Salon Funéraire KELLY Funeral Home Reg\u2019d GORDON MCINTYRE Propriétaire DIRECTEUR DE FUNERAILLES 264-5447 - 264-5402 HUNTINGDON, QUE.car nos quinze maires ont voté huit contre sept; donc, le préfet a voté, j'imagine, contre puisqu'il est un fumeur.Selon la charte de la MRC, le préfet a un vote mais s'il est le représentant de sa municipalité, il peut aussi voter comme un simple conseiller.Sans vouloir induire personne dans l'erreur, je crois que le préfet aurait voté encore contre la motion, s\u2019il y avait pensé, ce qui aurait neutralisé la proposition du maire Pinsonneault.Ceci aurait provoqué une situation sans aucun précédent à la MRC du Haut-Saint-Laurent.En résumé, un feu avec beaucoup de fumée sans être une fumisterie et une proposition qui ressemble à celle qui limite l\u2019intervention des citoyens à cing minutes aux assemblées du conseil, alors qu'il n'y a rarement plus de cinq à six personnes qui assistent et qui posent très rarement une question.Un moyen de diminuer davantage les assistances publiques à ces précieuses réunions.Jacques Leduc sur glace joutes débuteront à 18 heures at le 17

Municipalité régionale de comté du Haut-Saint- Laurent.Cette bonne nouvelle a été annoncée aux maires à une récente rencontre par le secrétaire Jacques Patenaude.Le ministre des Affaires culturelles du Québec, Clément Richard, a confirmé le tout à la MRC dans une lettre officielle.M.Richard indique que cette décision fait suite à l\u2019avis d'intention qui a été transmis à la MRC le 10 avril 1984 et à la recommandation favorable au classement émise par la Commission des biens culturels lors de sa rencontre du 7 juin 1984.De plus, le ministre Clément Richard indique que l'étude réalisée par la Direction du patrimoine a mis en évidence les grandes qualités architecturales de ces deux édifices de style néo- classique et leur parfaite intégration.\u201cIl va sans dire que le Québec est

Parfois il manque un brin sur une certaine longueur parce que, pour une raison ou pour une autre, le métier ne s'est pas arrêté lorsqu'il a eu un bris.L'opératrice doit alors travailler avec une aiguille pour réparer ce défaut.Les opératrices se servent de trois sortes d'aiguilles a l'Usine 5: des aiguilles fines et courtes, bonnes pour travailler avec du tissu serré: des aiguilles fines et longues qui seront plus rapides; et de grosses aiguilles pour du plus gros fil.Toutes ces aiguilles se terminent par une petite boule et non par une pointe, pour deux raisons: une pointe pourrait diviser le fil, et une boule permet de retenir le fil une fois qu'il est sur l'aiguille.Lorsque les pièces ont été examinées et reprisées aux tables motorisées, elles tombent directement dans un chariot.Tables ordinaires Quelque 60 pour cent des pièces reçues à l'Usine 5 sont traitées aux tables motorisées et le reste va aux tables ordinaires.L'Usine 5 dispose de 32 tables ordinaires lesquelles sont fixées à un angle moins prononcé que les tables motorisées.Les tables ordinaires sont très bien éclairées par en-dessous pour permettre de voir à travers le tissu.Les pièces qui passent sur ces tables présentent plus de problèmes car elles sont de construction plus serrée.A l'Usine 5, seules les employées sur tables ordinaires sont payées à la production selon un système de boni.Leur rémunération est établie par classes de tissu.Elles ne sont pas appelées à faire des réparations majeures.Lorsque les opératrices terminent leur travail, 94 pour cent des pièces vont à l'inspection où l\u2019on va s'assurer que la tâche a été bien faite.Si tel n\u2019est pas le cas, la pièce peut être retournée à la personne qui en était respor- sable.L'autre six pour cent des pièces est envoyé au reprisage particulier.Reprisage particulier Il a été mentionné au début de cet article que l'Usine 5 présente un aspect plutôt calme, en comparaison avec les autres usines, mais dans la salle du Reprisage particulier, c'est encore plus paisible.Des géraniums ornent les bords des grandes fenêtres qui donnent sur un jok paysage avec, au loin la rivière Châteauguay.Dans cet oasis de tranquillité oeuvrent 17 opératrices aux doigts de fée qui ne font pas seulement du reprisage mais aussi de l\u2019étirage pour remplacer des brins entiers qui sont trop gros ou mal tordus.Il arrive qu\u2019un fil manque tout le long d\u2019une pièce de 80 mètres.Pour le remplacer, une opératrice devra travailler parfois jusqu'à une semaine.Il faut vraiment être des anges de patience! Lorsque les pièces sont terminées à l'Usine 5, elles sont placées dans des chariots dans un ordre spécifique, selon le numéro du lot dont elles font partie.En même temps, une carte d'identification de la pièce est remplie avec la classe du tissu, le dessin.la couleur et le numéro de pièce.Ouverture d\u2019une école Lorsque 1'Usine 5 a besoin de personnel, il lui faut l'entraîner elle-même et, à cette fin, une école est mise sur pied, environ tous les deux ou trois ans, afin de A l'Usine 5, c\u2019est la main-d'oeuvre Mme Gertrude Nadeau est une employée de longue date à I'Usine 5.Elle fait ici le reprisage picurage d'une pièce à une table motorisée.Robert Royal travaille depuis un peu plus d'un an a l'Usine 5 où il s'occupe de déplacer et ranger les pièces de tissu dans un ordre bien déterminé, afin que tout soit prêt pour l\u2019Usine de finition.combler les postes des employées qui prennent leur retraite ou partent pour d'autres raisons.Un choix très sévère s'effectue parmi les candidates qui désirent suivre les cours.On leur fait subir des tests de dextérité, de patience et de la vue.Seulement 30 pour cent des candidates réussissent les tests.Et sur ce 30 pour cent, seulement la moitié d\u2019entre elles se rendront jusqu\u2019au bout des cours.Une fois embauchée, il faudra environ six mois à une nouvelle employée pour accomplir sa tâche normalement et environ deux ans avant qu\u2019elle ne travaille à la même vitesse que les autres.Alors que la moyenne d\u2019âge de tous les employés de la compagnie est de 36 ans, à l\u2019Usine 5, elle est de 39 ans.En moyenne les employées ont 16 ans d\u2019expérience.1 y en a même une dans la salle du Reprisage particulier, Mme Gladys Monette, qui a 45 ans d'ancienneté dans la compagnie.Mais même des employées de longue date ne cessent d\u2019apprendre, note le directeur, car de nouveaux patrons sortent tous les jours, apportant des défis à l'ingéniosité et à la dextérité des dames de l'Usine 5.TOUT LE MONDE A BESOIN DE COMMUNIQUER Tournoi de tir au poignet Samt-Ancet - Un tournoi de tir au poignet aura lieu le samedi 16 mars au bar Rod et Gun à Port Lewis.Il y aura au programme trois catégories pour les hommes et pour pour les femmes.Les inscriptions débuteront à compter de midi.et la competition démarrera vers les 14 heures.Pour toutes informations supplémentaires, on peut communiquer avec Marc Walsh au 264-2667.Maison pour hommes en difficultés Valleyfield - L'assemblée générale de fondation de la Maison de dépannage pour hommes en difficultés aura lieu le 19 mars prochain.C'est alors que le comité provisoire présentera le rapport des activités;

GAZETTE \u2014 LE 13 MARS 1985 Vingt-six jeunes de l'Alberta en visite dans la région Huntingdon - Le groupe de 26 échangistes de Fort McMurray.Alberta, sont déjà rendus presqu\u2019à la fin de leur séjour dans la région de Huntingdon.Leur arrivée, vers les 22 heures samedi, a été soulignee par une belle fête à la salle de la Légion : c'est ainsi que les jeunes de l'école Polyvalente Arthur Pigeon recontraient pour la première fois leur jumeau de l'Alberta.Sous la brillante habileté d'Honora Derepentigny.une petite cérémonie a précédé un buffet et une soirée dansante.Les jeunes d'Arthur Pigeon étaient regroupés a l'avant et les jeunes de l'Alberta ont été invités à aller rencontrer leur échangiste.Ensuite, tous les jeunes ont èté présentés à la foule composée majoritairement de parents et d'invités spéciaux.Quelques discours ont souligné l'importance de cet événement.Therese Galipeau, présidente de la Commission scolaire de Huntingdon, a souhaité la bienvenue aux échangistes et a tenu à féliciter tous les responsables de cette activité.Elle a rappelé que les objectifs de cette échange touchaient les aspects linguistique, socio-culturelle, et mème personnelle, le tout cadrant bien \u2018dans la formation intégrale de l'élève\u2019.Pour le maire de Huntingdon, Gérald Brisebois, l'expérience que tous ces jeunes vivront en est une pour la vie.Le maire s'est dit trés content que des personnes aient pensé à ce projet, rappelant aux jeunes que le Canada est un beau pays, mais que le Québec était également une belle province.Maurice Pilon, représentant les parents des familles d'accueil pendant l'échange, souhaita que cette expérience permette aux jeunes de l'Alberta de mieux connaître le milieu francophone, tout en les décrivant comme des propagandistes de l'hospitalité québécoise.Et les derniers mots revinrent aux jeunes de l'école Arthur Pigeon, représentés par Josée Dancause et Marco Pilon.Ils ont simplement souhaité une bonne semaine à tous les échangistes, et au plaisir de se faire de nouveaux amis\u2019 Après une journee.dimanche, au sein des familles d'accueil, les jeunes se sont rendus au centre écologique à Franklin en avant midi, pour ensuite visiter en après-midi Lubec.En soirée, ils ont été reçus à souper par le conseil municipal de Huntingdon avant de se rendre à l'Hôtel de Ville pour y signer le Livre d'Or de la municipalité

vont bon train au Comité des Loisirs afin d'aménager un terrain de balle dont on pourra être fier, à l'arrière du Centre récréatif et de l'école élémentaire.À cet effet, la communauté se doit de remercier tout particulièrement M.Serge Brais de la Caisse Populaire d'Ormstown qui a fait don de 900$ pour payer les estrades.Aussi, merci au Club des Lions pour leur don de 1500$ qui servira à acheter l'arrêt- balle.Aussi, les habitants d'Ormstown pourront bénéficier d\u2019un terrain de soccer à droite du terrain de balle, ainsi qu\u2019un espace pour les jeux de fer, pétanque.Enfin, on trouvera aussi un restaurant et une aire pour les tables de pique-nique un peu plus loin.Les responsables prévoient la grande journée d'ouverture pour le mois de juillet, c'est à surveiller.Les joueurs de tennis, n'ont pas pour autant été délaissés puisque cette année le terrain de tennis sera entièrement rénové.Enfin.si vous voulez savoir ce qui se prépare de nouveau cette année, venez
