many will just have to wait for a future issue.This happens occasionally in our business.Given that the size of each week's newspaper is dependent on the number of advertisements we receive, and that June is a busy month for both advertisers and news events, we must then add the consideration that the number of pages in each edition must be divisible by four (printers\u2019 requirements) and that our French and English sections must then share those pages on an equitable basis (again based on advertising) .you see the problem.This week we have given priority to the graduation ceremonies at

June 16.The Public Health sector of the Montérégie regional health board (RRSSS) has been conducting a detailed study on the impact of pesticides, especially those used in apple orchards, on children living nearby.Although orchards have been targetted, Quebec statistics show that 65 per cent of pesticide-related illness occurs in a home setting, where 40 per cent of cases involve children under five.Prevention tips In order to prevent such problems at home or anywhere else, the following tips have been listed: * Learn to recognize beneficial insects, such as spiders, which devour other harmful species; Ormstown Flower Show While lots of folks were thinking about the mess outside caused by the ice storm and the floods, Lois McCaig and her committee were thinking about the August 7 Flower Show at the Walshaven Residence * Plant insect-resistant species of plants; * If you have fruit trees, learn to live with some imperfect fruit rather than ensuring picture-perfect crops by using pesticides; * Stay away from any pesticide-treated lawns or orchards for 24 hours after spraying; * Avoid using pesticides in vegetabl gardens, or if you use them, wait at least a week before harvesting the vegetables and wash them carefully: * An orchard is not a playground for children; * Plant screening evergreen trees, such as cedars, around orchards; * Do not use insect repellents containing DEET on children less than two years old.For more information or to reserve a place at the Huntingdon meeting, call (514) 928-6777.Ext, 5558.(Jr) Jean McEwen - 829-2704 They chose as this

a 10-meter corridor on either side of municipal roads.At its June 1 council meeting, Godmanchester agreed by a majority vote to ban roadside discharge of firearms, after more than 20 residents pleaded again this month that the council adopt a bylaw.Godmanchester had been the only holdout of the Haut-St-Laurent\u2019s 15 municipalities not to prohibit roadside shooting.An MRC-wide Nuisance bylaw bans the discharge of firearms from roads, and the provincial police have the power to enforce the bylaw and ticket violators.About 20 residents were back again at the recent council meeting to plead with the councillors to take action, disappointed that a at the May 4 meeting to ban roadside hunting had failed to pass.Frustrated citizens told story after story of incidents of reckless firearm discharge, of close calls from whizzing bullets, of the pile-up of dead groundhogs from the annual spring shooting spree.Led by spokespeople Alan and Carole Sutherland, residents had asked that the issue be put to a vote.Fiddlers contest coming.from page 1 fiddler Denis Brisson of Embrun, Ont., and vocalist Donald Baker.Denis has supported fiddle contests all over eastern Ontario and Quebec, and

twin-fiddle performance.La Bouclée from Valleyfield demonstrated squaredancing Québécois style, and Stanley Farquhar won the trophy for the 50- and-over stepdancing.The following year Denis Lanctot showed off his special fiddling style, and Denis Dumas and the Vagabonds from Ormstown had everyone kicking up their heels on Sunday.lan Hamilton took home the championship for the second time, and the 50-50 draw was introduced.Last year, local competitors shone, as Julie Allen of Valleyfield became the first local fiddling champion.The Schryer Triplets offered an outstanding fiddling show and

Rosario, Sylvianne and Denyse Dumont Denyse and Rosario Dumont are among those parents who find themselves facing an overwhelming situation for which they desperately need assistance.Their ordeal become a crisis when Sylvianne, their only daughter, 13 years old, was admitted to hospital following an \u201coverdose\u201d and cardiac failure.Sylvionne was already seeing a child psychiatrist and a fomily therapist at the hospital's mental health department for youth, as well as being assisted by a psychologist and the principal and teachers in her school.In short, a full range of praditioners had already been working together for several months to help Sylvianne during o very difficult period.However, in spite of everything, the crisis come to a head when the combination of drugs, antidepressants and suicidal thoughts caused this teenager's somewhat bitter daily existence to fall apart, placing the parents in a position where they had 10 seek the ultimate recourse: placing Sylvianne in a home for teenagers suffering from serious behaviour problems.In the interest of everyone concerned, the CLSC and the centres Jeunesse set about taking the necessary steps to organize this placement for an 8-month period.speedy rehabilitation is now possible through à joint approach Mrs.Laurentia Laberge Leduc, beneficiary Mrs.Lourentia Laberge Leduc is 77 years old and lives at home.For several years, she attended a doy centre in a residential and long-term care centre (CHSLD), participating in a program designed to keep her active and prevent a loss of autonomy.However, ot a certain point her condition required a total arthroplasty of the knee (prosthesis), a surgical procedure carried out in hospital.\"The explanations | was given before the operation enabled me 10 undergo this difficult period more easily\u201d, declared Mrs.Laberge Leduc.Following her operation, with the assistance of a liaison officer from the hospital, Mrs.Laberge Leduc was transferred to an intensive functional rehabilitation (IFR) service in the CHSLD, o personalized and family oriented environment, where she received rehabilitation treatment.A few weeks later, the multidisciplinary team announced that her treatment had been completed and suggested she could return home.A service plan was prepared by the CLSC who assigned practitioners to visit Mrs.Laberge Leduc at home to provide personal hygiene care and physiotherapy services.Whenever she needed to go out, Mrs.Laberge Leduc called on the adapted transport service.During this period, while her physical capacities were limited, community organizations in the area provided her with housekeeping services, as well as hot meals.When she was able to return to the day centre in the CHSLD, a program of physiotherapy maintenance treatments and a preventive nursing follow-up were arranged.At the same time, af the invitation of the centres Jeunesse, the Dumonts joined a group of parents, all of whom were experiencing problems of a similar nature and who come together with the goal of sharing their experiences and learning how to express their emotions and negotiate with their teenagers.While they were gaining support and insight through this group experience and the help of a centre specializing in drug addiction, Sylvionne was gradually learning how to rejoin the world, as she began to take positive steps in her personol development.Today, at the age off 16, the teenager has overcome the dependencies which were destroying her life and is better able to cope with her emotions.She now knows that even though her parents did not approve of some of her behaviour, they have always loved her very much.The family has evolved during this difficult experience in which they were obliged to face many challenges, with very little respite.The Dumonts would like to thank the practitioners in the health and social service network of the Suroit who offered their support during this inescapable voyage which led them to re-examine the most fundamental aspeds of their family life.Throughout this experience, Mrs.Laberge Leduc could rely on a telephone support service provided by the day centre: \u201cI felt that | was not forgotten\", she said.Personalized services, corresponding to her new needs enabled her to return to live at home and fo continue to enjoy her own
