By IAN CAMERON CLEARBROOK ■ Tactics of backroom politics have been employed by a Fraser Valley community in an attempt to stop development In a neighboring district. A development plan presented to the public at a hearing here this week disclosed that Matsqui wants to expand industry within its borders. ' At the same time Internal correspondence between the Abbotsford-Clearbrook chamber of commerce and a local politician makes it plain that the business community here wants to stifle all competition in neighboring Aldergrove and Langley. i A folder published by Matsqui .municipality and sent to residents In the district announcing an 'official community plan' states in part "Expansion of the secondary, manufacturing sector is seen as an Important addition to stimulate local employment.

However, according to corres- poncence which has come Into the hands of the Aldergrove Star, MSA has a glut of available industrial land and wants to protect It'fro. competlHo.i by ' flagrant influence peddling. .

A letter ftqm.the chamber to MLA BUI Ritchie (Socred - Central Fraser Valley) states this position bluntly; it does not Want to see competition from a 626- acre industrial park In North Aldergrove, "What we do not need is a major industrial park ... almost in our own backyard," writes chamber manager Lloyd Kinn- gar'd '_.

Ritchie, along with other prominent political figures of the area have for a long time been extremely outspoken in their opposition to the Aldergrove project, under the posture of being the champions of farmland Wrvation.

They we_e Interviewed on radio and TV and succeeded extremely well in arousing public sentiment on the Issue, gaining supporters for' their 'motherhood' cause from the heart of Vancouver, Chilliwack, Richmond and other lower mainland points, . All they had to say was that the Aldergrove land wks "prime agricultural1'. Ritchie carried the torch for his business-minded constituents right to the Social Credit convention floor last week although he earlier had declined a public confrontation on the issue with Aldergrove Star editor Rudy Langmann out of concern for "the influence" this might have on the Nov. 5 reconsideration by ELUC. THE CONSTANT BATTLE The struggle began about three years ago when Gloucester Properties Ltd. received approval from langley district municipality for a 700 acre industrial park In north Aldergrove.The project immediately ran into problems when the rezoning application reached the Central Fraser Valley regional district level. De- Jong, the chairman of the board, and other directors from Matsqui and Abbotsford successfully stalled the project for months before the application was finally forwarded to the B.C. agricultural land commission, first 'without comment and then, after extended editorial comment in the Aldergrove Star, with the board's reluctant approval. The land commission next discussed the case for months, asked* for' further land studies from the applicants, sent an agronomist to the site for an afternoon jaunt, and finally called a public hearing which was only lightly attended. The expert " 'timmt that the government review ELUC's decision with the Implied threat of dire consequences if the decision wasn't bounced back to where it was when the land commission left it. Premier Bill Bennett, already under pressure from the media and the media-aroused public in the so- called letter-gate affair, bowed to public pressure. ELUC, he said, had been ordered to reconsider on Nov. 5. The pressure continued with more briefs from lower mainland municipalities and a non-event demonstration by some 30 people from Rich- ' mond and Chilliwack who came to Aldergrove bearing placard!: (save it, don't pave it) and later watched themselves on television. ,. Not. many people in this group of 'experts' ever set foot on the property. Ritchie invited Langmann to a public debate, then backed off when his chal- 'Loglc' page 2A Town Talk A IBS Ml.

NO MYSTIQUE BEHIND INDUSTRIAL PUSH Council accused of hiding behind'mystique' By RUDY UNGMANN CLEARBROOK - The approach was definitely low key, but the intent was clear. Matsqui municipality wants to expand industry. "Expansion of the secondary, manufacturing sector is seen as an important addition to stimulate local employment .., in order to provide jobs, revenue and development of a compact industrial park area," some 300 Matsqui residents were told when the municipality's first community plan, two years in the making, was presented to the public at a hearing here Monday night. The plan, although not delving into the mechanics of when and how to deal with having additional agricultural reserve lands removed from the freeze, prov- Be on time for parade By I. W. JOHNSEN ALDERGROVE • The Remembrance Day parade on Sunday, November 11 begins at the Buckerfields parking lot across front the Aldergrove mall at 9:30. Participants arc urged to be on time and to wear greatcoats or KDs. The parade forms up at 9:45 and moves out at 9:55 sharp. March past the saluting base al Bakervlew Gardens on Fraser Highway will be at 10:25, followed by the ceremonies In the Legion hall from 10:30 to approximately 10:55. A short service remembering the dead will follow at Ihe cenotaph, beginning with the last post, two minutes of silence, dedication, and ending with reveille and the laying of the wreaths. Entertainment and refreshments will be on the program' in the hall following the conclusion of the services. ided for the initial ground work. Planner Ken ■ Stinson, who held the floor during the better, part of the evening, explained, that lands near the Abbotsford airport were in the category of class 5 to 7 as under the Canada Land Inventory. The areas referred to by Stinson, however, as listed on a municipal soil classification map, bore little relation to the areas which the plan indicates Matsqui council want removed from the freeze. The. audience, mainly urban dwellers, did not focus on this discrepancy and there was no outcry about 'saving the farmland'. Areas included in the future development area as 'special industrial' take in some of the best agricultural lands in the valley, class 3 soils, and presently under top production. Several speakers, however, did not fail to give council a hard time. "The plan is confusing by design," claimed Bill Slewldge of 30888 Harris Road, "Council is hiding behind some mystique," Slewldge won repeated app lause from the audience as he berated council and planners for taking two years to prepare the plan behind closed doors and then springing it upon the public, saying "Hurry up, approve it." "You expect input from uninformed people," he said. •Driediger' page 2A Socreds advocate removal of 4-7 lands VANCOUVER - Delegates to the Social Credit convention here last week voted in favor of a resolution which would see the B.C. agricultural land commission placed under the ministry of agriculture "...so the ministry can develop and co-ordinate a viable agricultural policy for British Columbia." An amendment to have all frozen lands with a non- improved value classification of from 4 to 7 inclusive automically removed from the land reserve was also passed. The land commission also came under attack when a. delegate claimed the commiss ioners too often were dealing with "false reports". Farmland preservation in B.C. as it has been carried out since the formation of the commission in 1973 amounted to nothing but "legislation by philosophy," the delegate said. Voting against the amendment as well as the motion were members of the Central Fraser Valley constituency association and small groups of delegates from other parts of the province. The resolution, which won overwhelming support, was placed on the order paper by the Nanaimo constituency association. That fas not the end to the bureaucratic paper shuffle, however, Commissioners sat on the case for well over half a year after this before finally pointing thumbs down. They refused an appeal. Ritchie was a commission member during this period, having received his appointment by, the cabinet a few days after the hearing the previous May. Gloucester then late last year made application to ELUC for leave to appeal. It was granted, and the committee studied the case through the spring, summer and fall of 1979. On October 3 this year they overturned the land commission's denial. Land commission chairman Gary Runka who had been with BCLC since its inception immediately resigned in protest. Ritchie by that time already had resigned from his seat on the commission in order to seek election to the legislature in the May 10, 1979 provincial. The very day ELUC's decision was made public the outcry began. It started in Abbotsford, with radio broadcast interviews with DeJong, Ferguson and Ritchie. It spread like wildfire, and soon almost every politician in the lower mainland from Vancouver to Hope was aware that Langley has finally succeeded in having the land use approved. By this time it was also acknowledged to be "prime agricultural land, class 2 and 3", and the developers "a Chilean consortium." Television was next. Their reporters interviewed the same small, homogenous group of Abbotsford-Matsqui politicians and showed pictures of beautiful lush Fraser. Valley farmlands, cauliflower fields and strawberry farms, all the'while insinuating that this was the kind of land the government had released. Political patronage became the catchword of the day when It was found that a Gloucester director waa a member of the Social Credit party. The opposition party got into the picture, SPEC, the United Church, B.C. Fed, of Agriculture, labor unions (of all things), agrol- ogists, government employees, and a special and hastily formed agricultural committee set up under the auspices of the B.C. chamber of commerce and whose chairman Incidentally also happened to be an Abbotsford businessman. Vancouver 'farmers' bought expensive full page ads in the Vancouver papers, demanding By RICK McILWAIN and FRANZ LANGMANN The week's question: Matsqui district last week sent out an innocent looking little folder announcing a public hearing on Nov. 5. At this hearing Matsqui's official community plan was presented to the public. The folder states, In part, "It is recognized that some poor class soils are presently in the (agricultural land) reserve and, specific studies should, determine the eventual land use," lt goes on to extoll the virtues of industrial development in Matsqui, suggesting that industrial areas be established in the vicinity of the Abbotsford airport. What do you think of Mayor Harry DeJong's sales pitch? As the chairman of the Central Fraser Valley regional district he was also the one fighting vigorously to keep industry, off some of the poorest quality, of frozen land In the Aldergrove area. Leo Charpenller: DeJong makes mc laugh. He is one of the principal opponents of Gloucester properties utilizing poor class farmland for industrial development. This land has direct access to the Trans Canada highway for trucking, straight line access to U.S. markets and proximity to the rail lines for rail oriented cargoes with the rest of Canada and the Pacific rim nations. On the other hand De- Jong wants to industrialize good productive farming land near . the Abbotsford airport, with no rail prox- ■ imlty, no immediate freeway access, and no straight line access to the U.S. Who is going to pay for the conditions that would make this Matsqui property as attractive as the Aldergrove land parcel? Did anyone count the ballots of the last Matsqui election to make sure De- Jong was elected mayor? Logic Is logic, that's all I say. John Beattlei It Is so obvious when you see the condition of land in Aldergrove as to how much use It is for agriculture. I have personally viewed the property in question and have travelled throughout the local area and I am aware of how productive the Abbotsford airport area lands are. The local -economics of the airport' 'Htfif_iK.Virtually' based on this high production. Raspberries, broco- lli, strawberries, brusscis sprouts, cabbage'and cauliflower are grown in abun-' dance in the area. It would seem obvious that Mayor DeJong is looking after his own interests, but at what . cost? Judy J.. Luarnk: 1 don't know the man, but I don't feel it's right for him to be so vocal against the Fraser Industrial Centre and then trying Initiate industrial land release in his own municipality, on good farmland. John McKenzie: My opinion always has been that Gloucester's property Is poor farmland and DeJong should mind his own business in regards to the Fraser Industrial Centre. It is painfully obvious that Mayor DeJong is not interested in the overall benefits to the valley. He seems caught up in his own minor interests. He is being very shortsighted in not seeing the benefit to all surrounding communities that Gloucester has |o offer. Helen Williams. 1 think it should be up to Aldergrove to solve its own problems. I don't feel that it Is fair for Mayor DeJong to meddle In these affairs, We don't pretend to solve their problems so they shouldn't pretend to solve ours. ___________ •M«M>M_________HMM|iaM_B_____l e____m___ _______________ mmm 2A THE ALDERGROVE STAR, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 1979 Is logic important? Continued from front page lenge was called. Two NDP politicians, Dave Barrett and agriculture critic Barbara Wallace indicated they might come later this month. No response was received to an invitation to Runka to visil Aldergrove and the proposed industrial site, and farmers-in Aldergrove who knew Ihe land in question called it "garbage land". Whether or not it is, is of course still open to debate. But we recommend that poeple who are truly interested enough to come and see for themselves bring rubber boots, if not they arc liable to sink out of sight. The land, according to an extensive independent study George Driediger quoted Continued from front page Slcwidgc also criticized council for "expounding the virtues of the land commission" and presenting a communily plan "which is completely out of step, suited for 1942 or '43 or perhaps the horse and buggy days." He said councilors failed lo consider the energy crisis by trying to centralize commercial zoning, and came down hard on government controls. Slcwidgc asked how compatible the plan was with neighboring Abbotsford village and district, and if Matsqui council had sought the input of "Abbotsford council or perhaps the Abbotsford 'senators'?" "Mayor George Driediger of Langley summed it up well a couple of weeks ago when he spoke of outside influence in regards to the Gloucester industrial proposal," he added. "I love it," came a voice from the audience during Slcwidgc's lengthy presentation, followed by applause. Other speakers criticized the plan for not taking into account developments such as an improved road system in the municipality or dealing adequately -with services or recreational needs. In his initial presentation Stinson indicated Matsqui's population had been forecast to grow from the present 34.000 to 150.000 within an unspecified time frame. This argument was, however, also shot down in flames by Slcwidgc. Working from the community plan's outlined density figures, the Ml. Lehman resident told councilors, "you arc talking about a total population of more lhan half a million people. Arc you surprised? You look surprised." Mayor Horry DeJong in his final address pointed out that wilh the public hearing now completed, council could approve of the corresponding bylaw, number 1880.

Maluorno apologizes to political opposition By ANNE BERTING MURRAYVILLE - Trustee Uren Maluorno has publicly apologized to Citizens for Better Government candidate Rev. John Rhoad for a statement made in a letter to the editor which appeared in The Star Oct. 24. Referring to The Star reporter's comments about an exchange of winks between the school board and the superintendent of schools at .the October 15 school board meeting, Maluorno stated in his letter headed "Board used as sales tools" that "the only winking was that between a CBG candidate and Cyril Barkved, the NDP candidate in the last federal election." Rhoad said that he was the only CBG candidate at that school board meeting, and the man he was sitting beside and talking to was not Cyril Barkved, but Ewa Boecker, an immigrant new to the country. Just before the commencement of the all-trustee candidates meeting Tuesday, October 30, Rhoad questioned Maluorno about his statement, and later on, during the course of the meeting Maluorno admitted that it was clearly a matter of mistaken identity. "I don't see any reason to be ashamed of sitting beside Cyril Barkved", Rhoad told The Star, "But this was a deliberate attempt to paint the CBG candidates NDP." Election could go either way for trustees ALDERGROVE - CBQ candidates Dave Bahr, Donna Rantamaa, and Ken Robinson were on hand last week at St. Dunstan's Church hall to share their platforms with local residents. In a forum entitled 'Education and your child', Interested parents shared their concerns about education. In the Langley school district with the three CBG candidates. MURRAYVILLE - Which way the scales will tip in the race for school trustee in Langley is anybody's guess. Nine candidates, three of whom will be elected November 17, faced one another last Tuesday for the first time, at a school board stronghold, Langley Central Fundamental School, in a lively, sometimes even entertaining, public debate. Incumbents, chairman Brian Wcslwood, vice-chairman and chairman of finance Loren Maluorno, and elementary chairman Mamie Robertson, flew their Back lo Basics banner proudly, and stood firmly on their record. Their list of achievements includes a widely acclaimed special education program; a prc-kindcrgartcn screening program alternative ' learning environments; a standardized code of discipline; an award of $140,000 from the provincial government for "sound financial government"; and the claim that Langley students, have, during the past few years, risen from the bottom third in the province, in academic performance, to the top third. CBG candidates Donna Rantamaa, David Bahr, Rev. John Rhoad and Kenneth Robinson all pointed a finger at the present board's style of leadership as the chief cause of unhappincss in the district. A BCTF-sponsorcd probe into the poor teacher-board relations and its effect on education, in April this year, found the fundamental schools at the root of the problem. The CBG candidates, who claim to be "moderates", disagree wilh these findings. They feci Ihe fundamental schools arc simply a cover-up to hide the real issue, namely the board's handling of its cmplovccs. In his rebuttal, Westwood insisted that the board enjoyed excellent relations with teachers in Langley on the whole. The only thorn in its side was the Langley Teachers' Association executive. He said the board had bent over backwards in its efforts to try to improve relations. Rantamaa, an unsuccessful candidate in last year's election under the Ideal banner, had obviously done her homework. She, Bahr and Rhoad accused the board of frightening fundamental school supporters into believing that if they don't vote for the Back to Basics bunch they would be voting for a return to progressive schools and the loss of the fundamental approach. Speaking to a predominantly fundamentalist audience, Rantamaa nevertheless stressed her disapproval of the rigid testing in the pre-scrccning for kindergarten students, and for graded report cards. Asked how she could reconcile this with her support for the structured fundamental approach for those who wanted it, she replied that she did support standardized testing. She wondered, too, why the fundamental schools had avoided evaluation. On the subject of testing and the board's claim that Langley students had risen from the bottom third in academic performance to the top third in the province, Bahr pointed out the 1979 provincial tests were in math only. "How can you take that result and conclude that Langley has moved from the bottom third to the top third?" he asked the incumbents. Challenging Rev. Rhoad for the city seat is Dr. Bob Thompson, an independent candidate. In his long career he has run the gamut in education from elementary school teacher to university professor and superintendent of schools. He supports the present board and feels his experience would contribute towards a greater spirit of cooperation between teacher, administration and board. Thomson disagreed strongly with his opposition, Rhoad, about the censorship of elementary text books. The board had earlier this year suspended readers containing fairy tales which they felt had "sexual overtones". Rev. Rhoad was asked at that time for his opinion of the books. His report finding the books harmless was greeted by the board at that time with astonishment and he was publicly berated by trustee Loren Maluorno. It was this incident, he told the meeting Tuesday, that prompted his decision to run for a trustee RESIDENTS OF LANGLEY AND DISTRICT ARE INVITED TO VISIT THE NEW Langley Health Centre 22033 Fraser Hwy., Langley From 1 p.m. to 2:30 p.m., Thursday, Nov. 14 Province of British Columbia Ministry of Health PUBLIC HEALTH SERVICE LANGLEY TEACHER'S' ASSOCIATION GRIEVANCE "The grievance at Peterson Road Elementary School has been filed with the Langley School Board because of the Board's refusal to act on a proposed solution to the overcrowding at that school.

"1 am definitely not in favor of censorship", Rhoad said most emphatically. "Whose standards would we use?" he asked, adding that censorhip could lead to the banning of the Bible, Snow White and Hansel and Gretel. His challenger, Thomson, took the opposite stand, and sup ported the board in its action. "Just because a writer writes a book docs not mean it automatically comes into the school system. It is the responsibility of the school board to select books. 1 don't like book-banning or censorship, but it is a question of putting books into the schools lhat arc suitable for the children" he said.

Now we even know who wrote the script. The playwright, although still reluctant to come forward to take a bow, has finally revealed his own true identity. He is, of course, the Abbotsford-Clearbrook chamber of commerce, the local business Interest. It might come as a shock to the many people in the audience who thought the drama was authored by 'Madam Justice', that well-known but much abused personality. The high drama came to an end when the play during its last few minutes reached an anticlimax, revealing that all the hlgh-faluting Ideals were really nothing but petty and parochial motives. We can do without the rerun. We can also do without the RD's, thank you. Matsqui mayor Mid CFVRD chairman Hairy DeJong (in a speech to the Aldergrove chamber of commerce, dealing with the Gloucester proposal, on Nov. 9, 1977): Ungley did not cooperate with Matsqui on a proposed joint sewer scheme involving east Aldergrove, so why should Matsqui help Langley? DeJong (after public hearing on Nov. 5, 1979): The (Gloucester) land is class 4. It was a 'political' decision (when approved by ELUC). Langley has thousands of acres of Industrial land in northwest Langley. 'Langley director of planning Gerry Sawlckl: Langley has a total of 765 acres of industrial land in northwest Langley. Of this 40 to 45 percent is currently developed. Of the remainder a number of large industrial parcels, 20 to 40 acres in size are in the process of being developed.

ALDERfrRoVE^/^ Municipal affaire minister BUl VanderZalm (at Social Credit convention): I visited the (Aldergrove) land Sunday. It's a bit of a Dogpatch.' SawlcW: Under the old 1966 regional plan we had 2,200 acres of land set aside for industry in Ungley. This shrunk considerably as a result of the agricultural land reserve and we have had no replacement. We. have to look for more industrial land, now. Matsqui alderman Henry Friesen: There presently is industrial land vacant. (Where? In Matsqui?) Yes. (How come Matsqui then wants more?) Competition, I guess. Matsqui planner Ken Stinson (at a public hearing into a five-year community plan on Nov. 5 this year). Und close to the Abbots-, ford airport is class 5, 6 and 7, with gravel, not suitable for agriculture. Aldergrove farmer Henry Friesen: The Gloucester property is crap land. I know what land 1 would farm and what land I would not. Former Matsqui mayor, now aldermanic candidate Dong Taylor of Mt. Lehman: I am in favor of the Gloucester project. 1 would like to see a portion of the land, however, set aside for agri-related industry. Abbotsford-Clearbrook chamber of commerce manager Lloyd Kinneard (in recent telephone conversations with an Aldergrove chamber of commerce director, and again with an Aldergrove Star reporter on Nov. 5, 1979): Our chamber has not taken a position in regards to the Gloucester proposal. We don't know enough about it. Kinneard (in letters to Central Fraser Valley MLA Bill Ritchie dated October 4 and 11, 1979): One cannot help but come to the conclusion that (ELUC) have erred in their judgment. We wish to express firm opposition to the (Gloucester) proposal, and to ask your assistance in seeing that the intents of this' business community are carefully considered in dealing with changes which effect the whole area. By MARK ROSE, MP [NDP-M1SSION, PORT MOODY] Sometimes being an opposition politician is a bit like .playing .Perry Mason. In fact, occasionally you have to operate like a sleuth in order to get a straight answer. Every day opposition members leap to their feet during question period, not necessarily to gain information but in an attempt to score political points by trapping a minister in some contradiction or otherwise embarrass the government front-benchers. Cabinet ministers, at least some of them, become equally skilled at.the non-answer, that is, replying in as few words as possible and offering responses as ambiguous as they think they can get away with. Like whooping cranes, they do a daily dance around the facts - a kind of obfuscater's waltz. The wit-testing game is well accepted here and enjoyed by the players and onlookers alike. Question period in the house, expecially since the advent of TV has become the liveliest, most exciting time each day. After question period the reporters usually disappear from the gallery because the house is dullsville. Games people play Over the years I too have played "let's trap the minister" but last Wednesday was one of those rare times in which a serious question was asked - a sincere information-seeking question. After the Three Mile Island near meltdown of a nuclear plant at Harrisburg, Pennsylvania eight months ago, nobody make jokes about nuclear power plants anyrtiore. The fact that a big one is planned for Sedro Woolley, Washington - a scant 35 miles away from a million people living In the lower mainland is no laughing matter either. On the contrary, it's a cause for grave concern if not alarm among1 many British Columbians. Since our federal government has been unusually silent about the matter, 1 asked Flora MacDonald whether the''government's attitude to foreign nuqr lear power plants near large Canadian population centres was one of "approval, disapproval or indifference." In brief, the minister's reply was that MPs, both in her party and from the opposition, had expressed concern and while Canada couldn't determine where U.S. power plants should be located, that "nevertheless we have raised this subject with U.S. officials." Now that was a nice reassuring reply, wouldn't'you agree? Flora didn't exactly say that Canada "disapproved" of the Sedro Woolley plant but on the surface indicated both concern and regret that Puget Power would build such a plant so dangerously close to Vancouver. No nukes are good nukes I was left with the impression that the phrase "raised the. subject" with U.S. officials meant that Canada opposed the site at Sedro - and that's precisely what MacDonald's answer was meant to imply. Now here's where the detective work comes in. I was able to get hold of a diplomatic letter from Canada to the U.S.A. dated August 29, 1979. Now for the shocker - that letter contains the following sentence - "Therefore, although the gov-; eminent of Canada is not opposed in principle to the construction of a nuclear power plant near the border, it wishes to be kept informed of project developments...." So regardless of what the minister said to me in the house of commons, the official policy of Canada is not to "disapprove" of nuke plants near our borders, on the contrary, it's one of approval. Therefore, if you oppose the Sedro Woolley nuclear electric plant, don't expect the government to protect you and your family. Instead, raise hell, ' with Flora to have the policy" changed. And that's elementary," my dear Watson. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Human government INFLANDER'S Open areas died...or did they? unique MELDS By STEPHEN KAWAMOTO Unique is human government among all other institutions. No one uses brute force in those other institutions but human government has a monopoly on force. And because of that, it alone gives free reign to evil and corruplion. I need to go no further talking of the evils abounding in this world, ll can be seen here in Canada, as well as in dozens of other countries. And as for corruption, lake note of recent happenings in England and in the U.S. (nol to mention a host of Latin American countries, the Middle East, China, etc.). As for the local front, a little scandal in a neighboring municipality back a few years ago proves that corruption is still thriving. A public figure is limited in his power, though he may be a head of state. He can do no more for the poor than a prisoner behind bars can do for a guard having a heart attack on the other side of the bars. All he can do is defend himself by word if nol by deed, talk with his advisors about Ihe economic situation, sign a' few bills on language policies, and go home. All the while thinking about tomorrow's schedule. And if I could do more for this country. I'd nol do il by entering politics. For one thing, I'd become a public figure. And since critics are more inclined to attack the public figure, it's better to make it big privately than publicly. Especially if you make it big by helping others just as the government is supposed to do by itself. In this case, you'll be killing two birds wilh one stone: helping other people and the government. And while human government sometimes uses brute force, even lo "help" people, most people do not bother to go such a route. To use brute force, even in the case of saving people from themselves, is to violate all human rights. But the act of helping without hindering is the most peaceful and kindest support one man can give to another. And that's the edge an individual has over a government. Editor, The Star, Sir, Would it be possible to have this poem published in your (our) paper before November 11? We, the young In Flanders Fields the poppies grow, And crosses stand, row upon row. The poppies still grow. and the crosses silently stand, Wc the young, do we really understand? From every homeland. Ihcy stood in line. To keep theirs, and to keep mine. While on the land, the sea, and in the air. All at home, with their love did care. We the young, were not there. Through hell they fought and toiled. To protect their homeland soil. Those that survive, their bodies still shed, yell and cry. Wc the young, Listen, war is not a lie. For those, who did more for us. than we suspect.

Happy 100th birthday Editor, The Star, Sir, Aside from the specific problems which arise from time to time in the Ungley school district, and which appear to be unsolvable without a certain degree' of unnecessary confrontation between the board and the parents and teachers, I fear there is another more serious problem. I believe that if the voters of Langley allow the present board of trustees to continue in oflice unopposed, a serious deterioration in the morale of all elements of the educational community in our municipality will surely result. The progress of the students through the learning process can only be adversely affected. The inability of the board of trustees and their appointed superintendent, Dr. Sampson, to deal effectively with the parents or the teachers of this school district indicates to me a failure of the board to fulfill their obllcation to the voters who placed them in oflice. It is difficult to argue against the so-called "back to basics," or the "hold the line on taxes", themes, but I suggest they are merely vehicles to ensure reelection. As for the advancement of the Langley district from the bottom third, to the top third of the academic scale in the province,-this is a statistic that holds very little, meaning. I question even the existence of such a "scale." 1 do not doubt the ability or Ihe sincerity of any of the board members, but I urge the voters of Ungley to consider seriously the "Citizens for Better Government" canodiates, Bohr, Rantamaa and Robinson In the township, and Rhoad in the city to add some ' balance and to temper what seems to be a "one party - no opposition" board. RAY BLESS1N Editor, The Star, Sir, On behalf of fellow tenants of Alderhaven I wish to take this opportunity to thank the B.C. Housing Management Commission for the lovely birthday party for Mrs. Annie Smee on October 16 as well as chairman of the commission, Mary Kerr; housing manager John Chorncy, John Dclancy, community relations worker; area property manager John Mahood; and secretary Christine Jensen; maintenance supervisor Frank Yarwood and wife Trudy; housing manager Susan Kondlylis; and caretaker Bill McGregor, of Alderhaven, who worked very hard to carry out all details to perfection. Everything went off as arranged, Thanks for the beautiful begonias, that graced the birthday table, placed on cither side of the lovely birthday cake,. Also for the bouquet of roses from the Franklins. Special thanks to Mrs. Hume and Mrs. Palmer who provided music on electric organ and piano. Leading us in singing old time tunes after the "happy birthday" song for the Utile queen for the day. I trust I have remembered everyone who participated in this wonderful occasion. Mrs. M. Woolley and myself will never forget the great honor and privilege wc both felt when the little lady called us her two "maids of honor" seated at her tabic. Again, thanks to all. Let's keep our seats Alderhaven Aldergrove IRENE ORWICK Editor, The Star, Sir, Heyl How come we have to go through this every school board election? Again we've got two people running whose spouses arc teacher union members (Rantama and Rhoad) and a third person whose wife has been teaching till recently. (Bahr). What gives? Look, there has to be a balance, a voice reserved for the taxpayer and parent. There are nearly 700 teachers in this district. Up at the school board office there arc another dozen or so administrators, supervisors, program planners, superintendents and such. They are good people who have come up from the ranks but are teacher union members too. That's all just great, and maybe the way it ought to be but We parents and taxpayers haven't got any unions, or professional organizations or clubs or anything - we've just got seven measly places reserved for us on the school board. Can't wc keep these seven places without having the union take them too? That's the only way we get our point of view represented. 1 don't think that's too much to ask, do you? Yours truly, WALTER ENGLER both in tax money for the stupid rooms that have to be made over and plenty In all the' fuss this community has had to go through. We ought to raise a monument and dedicate it to the kids whose time got stolen and who are going to lose opportunities in life because they didn't anywhere near reach their potential in the wasted open area years. It makes me mad, mad, mad to think of itl It makes me mad to think of the tears and the frustration of their parents, It makes me even madder to think how much flack some of the teachers (who had the horse sense so see how harmful open areas were) had to take from their own unions or from other teachers who had blinders on. And it bugs me no end to sec how much the school boards these last four or five years get criticized for working to get the mess straigntened out again. Those educator types who sil in the universities dreaming up all these fancy philosophies ought to get busy and clean out a few barns, pump gas, drive a truck, bake some bread, build a road - do something usefull Too much thinking is making them come up with some pretty sick ideas. Trouble is, their philosophies are communicable diseases and our kids are catching the worst of it. In fact the whole country is getting to feeling a little nauseated. It was a good thing for us in Ungley that the fundamental school had Its doors open to those of us who were noticing the trouble. I bet you the records will show that most of us who went there came from schools with open areas. Or from those schools where the kids ran the whole show - no proper discipline, everybody doing their own glorious thing - just like the nice education philosophy book said. I know very well that lots of us can't find the big words and Ideas to argue against those philosophies, or understand the - big words in the teachers' manuals or put the letters of some college degree behind our names. 1 was a prairie fanner and trucker till I moved to this beautiful valley but I'll say this - what we do have is the common sense to know when a great, big grand idea is going to hurt the kids we're raising. As somebody said, "Wc may be stupid but we're nol dumbl" Looking back on these last few years in Langley I just wish all the teachers, not just a few, had spoken out. We could have - saved so much harm to the kids. Maybe it's not really fair to say that. Maybe teachers have to do just as they're told from higher up. But I would have thought that at least their professional union would look into things like that. I guess they're too busy looking after teachers, asking for higher wages and getting into politics. It just goes to show that If we parents are not constantly checking Into things the situation is going to get out of hand again. That's why I say - put up < a monument to the hurt of this big lesson we've just been through with open areas. Then maybe we won't forget how easily such an idea can take hold and happen' when we're not paying any particular attention. No, Mr. Wilson, the open areas didn't die any "natural" death. We had to fight them to a stand. In fact I don't think they're dead even yet what with, all the children's rights nonsense buzzing around. Sure as anything, somebody in one of those big universities is going to hatch another great new Educational Thought and keep pushing It in the magazines and on TV till somebody decides to try It on our school kids again. Parents arc going to have to keep a sharp watch from now on ■ It seems nobody else cares about our kids as much as we do.

Photos,by Rick Mcllwain By CORRINE VANDERWERFF I walked to work this morning. 1 usually walk. We live in a quiet residential area, close; the fall atmosphere Is clear, crisp, beautiful, exhilarating, and invites walking; besides, certain medical acquaintances rather urge this walking business upon me. At any rate, I walked to work, my brief case full of notes for this series, a stack of newspaper front pages under my arm for statistical references, my mind busy with facts 1 was planning to put through my typewriter, preoccupied, not totally aware of my surroundings. A crunching underfoot alerted me to the presence of glass. Looking down, I saw the remains of a bottle, brown, for the most part crushed, its neck intact and a little to the side. Nothing so startlingly unusual, you might say. Right. Nothing worth more than a cursory glance. Nothing that the ordinary person would give second thought,to, except to note with annoyance and avoid, if driving. But my mind was busy with the problem of local crime, and the implications of that broken bottle lodged in my thinking process, lt materialized into a symbol of situations I would rather forget. It, one broken beer bottle lying on a quiet little side street in a quiet area of a quiet little town evidenced not only carelessness and' an indifferent attitude, but broken law. Now a beer bottle, of itself, is nothing illegal or even evil, but broken, on a street, it becomes an environmental menace. A beer bottle, as we know, implies beer. We also know that beer, and other alcoholic beverages can be used legally in British Columbia by people nineteen years of age or older. Then why did this broken bottle become such a menacing symbol in my thoughts about the crime problem? A quick review of our provincial liquor laws may offer some due. I . Highway'crime' and heartache The law says that we, those of us who happen to be nineteen or older, may drink alcoholic beverages only in a bona fide residence or on licenced premises - not in cars or on the streets, or in other public places; that we may not drive a motor vehicle if our blood alcohol level is .08 percent or higher, nor drive in an impaired manner regardless of our blood alcohol level; that we may not behave in a drunken or disorderly manner nor cause a public disturbance; and that we may not supply alcoholic beverages to those under nineteen years of age.' Yes, the law clearly defines what may not be done with alcohol or while under its influence. Yet many ordinary, nice, pleasant, usually law-abiding people, some of whom we know personally, suddenly become entangled with the law over some infraction involving liquor.. But, you ask, why should I concern myself with this in my scries about crime when there is a growing problem with vandalism and arson that frightfully threatens all of us. The concerning fact is that vandalism, that on-the-spot, spur-of-the-moment act, of violence usually occurs while the culprit is "under the influence". Another fact, equally as concerning is that fifty percent'of all traffic deaths in this province are alcohol related, and that twenty-five percent of all cases before our criminal courts are alcohol related. Those should be sobering facts. Alcohol and crime do mix. But, you may counter, isn't our biggest concern these days with the growing criminal and mischief element among our young? This may be true. But do we realize just how inter-related juvenile crime is with alcohol and drug abuse? Can we know the devastating affects of liquor -upon the young? In one area where wc do have reliable statlstsics, traffic infractions, we find that twenty-six percent of all highway deaths Involve youth between 16 and 20. Alcohol is implicated in at least half of these fatalities. A study by the Traffic' Injury Foundation of Canada shows the probability of being involved In an accident while Impaired compared with Alcohol or drugs combined with gasoline, can and do, have tragic results. the chances of being involved in an accident while sober. Their findings indicate that the highest total fatality risk is among impaired 16 and 17-year-olds who are 165 times more likely to be killed than the average non- impaired driver. Other statistics by TIRF indicate that the impaired driver in every age group is more likely to be killed than is the average non-impaired driver. The 30 to 34 age group has the lowest total risk, yet under the influence thev are seventeen times more likely to be killed than the non-impaired driver. The total risk of fatality rises after age 34, yet the risks for a driver over age SO are surpassed by those of the 16 to 20-year-olds. We tend, though, to view statistics from a detached vantage point. None of us expects that we, or those close to us, will become another digit in a column of numbers, another notation to prove that drinking and driving should not mix, another evidence that the tendency to commit a criminal act increases while "under the Influence." On the other hand, though, too many of us do know, if not first hand then through the experience of acquaintances, the terror of reality. There are those empty chairs at our dinner tables. And those empty desks in our classrooms. And those empty places in our hearts. We bemoan senseless, untimely loss; and we mask our grief, scaring in its icy reality. We cry against the laxity in policing that allowed the loss of our love, but do wc get to the real cause? We have seen youthful determination fight cripping Injuries, battle the long way back to a normal life, and we know that beneath the determination there will always be a void, an empty space left by the friend who did not survive the accident. In their own plea against the insanity of impaired driving, our patrolmen* can tell ghastly and gory stories of motor vehicle accidents they have attended, scenes they would rather erase from their memories. Surgeons can tell of countless nighttime hours demanding the utmost of their skills and -abilities to save and restore victims of "senseless highway crime." And I could lace this article with a string of narratives detailing the horror, the tragedy, the misery, the heartbreak. Such stories have become too common. Our government has launched campaigns to educate us against drinking and driving, and we curse the "batmoblle" lurking to catch us if we're naughty. At the same time wc cry for safe highways. Much has been written about the dangers of the excesses of alcohol. Many timely and pertinent bulletins and pamphlets are available from the crime prevention unit of our local police office and from the public health unit. Just last week our provincial minister of health, Bob McClelland spoke out again, strongly, against the dangers of alcohol abuse. Yes, alcoholic beverages can be legally used by people 19 and older, but, .and the warning Is strong, they must do so within the confines of the law, and they must do so within the bounds of common, iense. Perhaps it Is the area of common sense where we run short. Maybe we are too prone to run our risks, to take our chances. As I write this, memories plague me of students I have had and of kids 1 have known,, and I hope that, in honor of their memory, I can help to spread a message. 1 know of nothing more sad than to see a teenager cut down, to see a life ended before there was opportunity for it to reach its potential. You see, it is not only the impaired who lose out. It is criminal to toy carelessly with one's own life. But the greater part of the crime is that the innocent, the law-abiding can also be mowed down because of another's carelessness. We don't call that murder; wc mask it as manslaughter. The hard, cold facts prove that loss of life and property extend far beyond that of the.drinking driver. And beyond the crime of alcohol on the road, statistics paint a gloomy picture of the family of the alcoholic. Thousands of North American children marijuana. And the current federal government is considering removing marijuana offences from the criminal code. Is it, as some parents think, better to have the kids on "pot" than on "booze"? The marijuana debate continues to frustrate local law enforcement officers. Police, in apprehending known drug users, tend )o wait until they have sufficient proof of illicit activities that will make the court take notice before they will make an arrest. Why? "Pot" has become too common. There is a movement to legalize it. The notion is abroad that it is better to use "pot" than to drink alcohol. But science is producing some frightening facts. The provinces, in the recent attorney general's meeting, have called for the federal government to go slow in the decriminalization of; marijuana. The provinces are responsible for health. They want publication of Evidence is that prolonged use can cause permanent brain damage, reduce the body's capacity to resist infectuous diseases, severely damage lung tissue (and in a much shorter time than with tobacco use), disrupt or damage sperm production, produce birth, defects, and impede maturation, learning and social development. Marijuana has also been proven to diminish psychomotor . skills - a recent survey in Boston showed that 16 percent of highway fatalities involved drivers high on marijuana. Further to that, repeated marijuana intoxication, according to. reports advanced, can result in mental confusion, in a decrease in ability to concentrate, and in a lessening of the ability to form concepts. Evidence also supports that prolonged use causes a loss of motivation and gives a false impression of calm and well-being. If then marijuana is a serious threat to individual health and well-being, would decriminalization make for easier control of its use? Unfortunately, in those stales where marijuana has been decriminalized experience shows that there has been an increase in users, an increase in juvenile carriers, and an increase in the amount of policing involved. Lon of motivation and mental confusion Some claim that marijuana is not addicting, yet reports from US* addiction treatment centers show that admissions for marijuana addiction run two-and-a- half times higher than for alcohol Other claims suggest that marijuana rise does not lead to Involvement, with harder • drugs, vet 26 percent of known addicts graduated directly to heroin and other "hard" drugs from marijuana. There is a strong movement among the legal profession for the legalization of the use of marijuana. And possibly there Alcohol li taking Hi toll In property damage and human lives In Aldergrove. Several young people needlessly lost their lives thli year In alcohol-related accidents. have at least one alcoholic parent. I think of late night telephone calls wc have had - calls in which a tear-choked father has poured out his loneliness and misery and longing to have his family back ... And we had to ask, "Have you been drinking again?" Yes, alcoholism is one of our social problems, a disease, some say. Alcoholics arc sick, not criminal; they say. But the effects of alcoholism arc criminal, and we have evidence that strong links tie together alcohol misuse with crime. Sociologists and psychologists point to battered children from broken homes < as being prime prospects for becoming criminals, as being the choicest types for achieving the status of "delinquent." While under tho influence of alcohol, nice parents can become physically abusive parents. The excessive use of alcohol Is often a contributing factor In marital breakdown. Because of all we know about the negative effects of the excessive use of alcohol, marly tend to concur that tt does not make sense that we legalize alcohol while we continue to ban the risks of prolonged use of marijuana. Marijuana is more dangerous than alcohol, says a report recently released to the (jlCMP. II is highly toxic, it poses a major health threat, it is a definite cause of occasional deep psychiatric disturbance. • The. report, prepared by Andre McNicoll a medical sociologist who is a government consultant on drug abuse prevention, shows that THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) is the main psychoactive ingredient in marijuana, and that ingesting only five to ten milligrams will result in cannibls Intoxication. ., An average marijuana cigarette contains from 10 to 30 milligrams of THC. While alcohol Is water soluble and only causes cellular damage when taken in abusive amounts, THC is fat soluble, combining with the fat in the body tissue, There Is a high fat concentration in the brain and In the gonads, and with repeated use there is a buildup of the drug .in these parts of the body. Forty percent of the THC from smoking just one marijuana cigarette can be found In the body eight days later. Farmer fights quotas, taxes CLEARBROOK - It is Important to preserve good agricultural farm land, Oscar Dayton told a public hearing here Monday night. At the same time Dayton admonished municipal leaders to bear in mind that it is often a heavy burden which is put on the backs of the people whom society expects to preserve it. Dayton said lands frozen agricultural are- not always good farmland, and if the owners are unable to use them for that purpose they arc nevertheless assessed and taxed as nonproductive farmland, meaning higher taxation. He also pointed out that good, fresh agricultural products were often wasted because of a closed quota system. Canadian industry often chose to import food products rather than expand the local quotas, he said. Farmers In the Fraser Valley, he said, had to constantly fight this system of a limited market and high taxes. are reasons for this. There is alleged widespread use of the drug among young lawyers. Also, the legal profession is presently being threatened with unemployment and it is therefore popular to advocate popular causes. Besides this, there is the widespread ignorance of the harmful medical effects of marijuana. Middle east and Asian countries have been aware of the effects of marijuana for centuries. Throughout those centuries marijuana use has been associated with collective apathy and with a lack of progress bordering on economic, and social regression. In the western world where we don't have a long history of marijuana use on which to base our judgment, many associate current behavioral patterns with current value changes. But is this nec- Traln a child. Conscience, gentleness, companion, tolerance, If taught and learned at an early age can repay ten-fold In later yean. What better investment could we make? Rick Mcllwaln Photo essarily right? Is it possible that the prevalent use of marijuana has more to do with our crime problem than we dare conceive? Is it possible that there is a behavior pattern in our society, in our community, that could be drug induced? That broken beer bottle lying on that quiet street and its symbolic implications •- what, of them? We are told that alcohol is also a drug. We suspect that many juveniles who use liquor also toy with other drugs. We can see'the links of alcohol with crime. We've had years. of experience in this. We do know something of the problem police encounter .with drug traffickers and drug abusers, but we do not know the full extent to which marijuana is linked with crime. We may soon discover, to our horror, that it does pose an exceedingly great danger, not only to our health but also to the long-term social behavior in our community. NEXT WEEK: The police ond how they operate • . •>*=' 'S ■ . I Home town.... kill it....deod Are you helping to kill it, by shopping in the larger towns and cities? If you sit for a moment and think of what you are doing to yourself, your neighbors, your young and old folks. Think carefully of what it would be like to live in any town that has no little grocery store or other small business. You say, "Why not close the doors for good", after all he doesn't ajways have fresh fruit, the particular cut of meat you want, he doesn't handle your special cocktail mix, he only carries six different types of cereal and you just must have the seventh!" "and my goodness, his prices, my dear; do you know I can buy a can of beans 3 cents cheaper In the city? And wc got licorice ice cream, something you can't even buy here." "Would you believe it, I saved S3.27 on groceries the last time I shopped In the city?" Now everyone wants to go to the city and save $3.27, but wait lady - you're not telling it like it is. It cost SIS.00 for gas and oil, it cost $3.00 to feed you and the children because you saved so much on groceries you insisted on eating in a classy cafe. While the kids have stated they want to shop for new jeans, you decide to buy another pant suit to hang up beside the eight suits you already have. And Dad Isn't hanging around, he needs a haircut and a few repairs and a couple new tools, Why not get these now? Then after a day's hard work of saving so much money; might as well have a snack for the road. Dad can gas up and get the spare tire fixed while the kids buy soda pop and chocolate bars. Meanwhile the home town businesses are hanging on by their teeth 'til they can't bear the pain any longer, so they quietly close their doors. Some will move away, some will become disillusioned and others will just give up and go on welfare. Soon the town starts raising taxes. They have no choice, they have lost business and house taxes which helped pay for schools, sewerage and water, hospitals, policing, garbage removal and road repairs. Farm property devalues, you have to go miles to get repairs; you lose your school grants and you've tost a future generation to the bigger towns and cities. Some day you will wake up with a sore throat, you need your tonsils out. Too bad people, the hospital closed Its doors last week. You have to get to a doctor now. Take a train, "What's a train?" Take a bus, "Sony, no bust" Take a car, "We got a car but got no gas!" Before you know it, the grocery store has closedjthe beauty shop has called it quits, the dress shop sold dresses Instead of jeans, the barber left, the druggist took off • families have to leave town to find work, leaving a glut of houses behind that arc falling into ruin and are not being taxed. "Darn! I knew there was a good reason for buying my gas, oil and tires at home but no one told mc the reason." You arc being told now fella! Wake up Canadians, You men who work for your money should have some small say as to where It is spent and you gals who are making your own money shouldn't have to be told, you should know. There's an old saying, "you never miss the water till the well runs dry." This applies to any business - you'll never miss the mechanic, the grocer, the doctor, the school teacher, the barber, the baker, the druggist, the painter or the carpenter • till they are all gone. Small towns have so many advantages. First one being you are a person, not a face or a number. People know your name and stop to chat. Your small town businesses go out of their way to be accommodating, they'll deliver your groceries and your furniture for free, not so In larger cities. The kids can roam freely and are known by all and cared about. The senior citizens can walk to shop, they don't have to fight for a bus seat or call a cab which most couldn't afford. Youngsters benefit from oldsters' wisdom and oldsters stay young at heart because of youngsters. Your teacher wants your children to learn and prosper. Your doctor does care about your health and your neighbors do care about your happiness and your businessmen want to serve you. So, do yourself a favor and patronize your home town business! You might surprise yourself and find you are an individual, important to your commun-. ity's well-being - not just a passing face amid a million other passing faces. If you all put your $3.27 savings back In you home town, it has to thrive and prosper. Remember the deterioration of your town starts with you and your shopping habits. If your habits are bad, change them. If your habits are good, not to worry. -Man. Mlnlota Herald mammmmmmmmmmm Aldergrove exchange.

This was the first time in five meetings between these two learns wc have seen the Rovers make so many mistakes but the Racers defence were also making mistakes and because of this the Rovers ended the half up 2 - 0. The second half was identical witli the Racers taking the play to Ihe Rovers but again a defensive mistake let Rovers in lo score their third. The Racers forwards kepi working hard and (heir hard work was rewarded when Chad Brechin blasted an unsavablc shot from just inside the box past a helpless Surrey keeper. Play was pretty even for the last twenty minutes although the Rovers were the more dangerous and only some great stops by keeper Eastick were keeping the Racers in with a shout. lt was another error by the' Racers defence which let the home team in to score and end the game at 4 - 1 in favor of the Rovers. Some excellent soccer by the Racers forwards and good goal tending by Eastick. point, with five minutes left in the game, Aldergrove took charge with a shorthanded goal by Steve Waines after some excellent forechecking by Steve Guran. Aldergrove with pressure by Al Perry and Jamie Bowes, scored number six by Steve Guran. A fine hockey game by both teams with the final score 6-1 for AldergrovS. October 31, Aldergrove vs White Rock.

The Bruins once again gave them a real hard game. The Kickers regular goalkeeper Dennis Hunter was sick so they had to go with outside left winger Murray Pybus in goal and thanks to Murray who made some beautiful saves the score was not higher for the Bruins. In the first ten minutes the Bruins had all the pressure and were allowed a free kick on the eighteen yard line. The centre took the shot and blasted a rocket at goal but Murray came off with a beautiful save. This gave the team the lift they needed and then it was,the Kickers turn to put on the pressure. Outside right Stefen Schween beat two players and put a good pass through to inside left Mike Petrie and Mike bested three players with good dribbling moves and shot on goal, only to see the ball go past the goal post with inches to spare. Then it was centre forward James Mailer's turn to shoot on goal and the Bruins keeper came up with a good save. At half time it was 0 - 0 and the rain continued to come down hard; all the kids were soaked and this didnt help their spirits or the pace of the game. Right away at thestart of the second half the Bruins put on the pressure and had one goal chopped off for being offside. This helped get the Kickers . flying high again, and Mike i'* Petrie)'recie'ved a iood t-irdugh 'ball from Danny Hunter and shot on goal." The'keeper saved again and the ballrebounded to Danny Hunter who let go with a good shot only to see the keeper once again do his stuff. At this point In the game 1 needed substitutes bad as the smaller kids were getting tired and I had nobody to put on because of kids not turning up for the games. Nothing happened for the next five minutes then it was Muler's turn again. He beat two men of the opposition and let go with a real hard shot. The Bruins keeper had no chance and It was 1 - 0 for the Kickers. Once again the Bruins put on the pressure which was not too hard because of the five substitutes they had and they shot oh goal but Murray saved again and was kicking the ball clear when one of the Bruins forwards placed a beautiful shot and this time Murray had no chance. With only two minutes left the Kickers tried for the winner and were unlucky when Mailer's shot again went past the post. The Kickers defence played a good solid game. Two of the players I have not mentioned, Brian Brady and Hugh King, played their hearts out. Next game at Parkside 2 at 11:15 Saturday Nov. 10.

Seniorl/girls place third in Upper Fraser Valley ALDERGROVE - The senior girls volleyball team placed third at the Upper Fraser Valley championships last Friday at Mouat. The girls began the playday very slowly, losing to Mountain, a team they had beaten the week before. They were also shakey against Mouat and but for a few breaks here and there they could have pulled it out. For the remaining games the girls had calmed down and settled into the style of play they are capable of. They soundly defeated Hope, Garibaldi and Pitt Meadows and narrowly defeated Abby Christian. Leah Ellis continued to show her ability as the tournament progressed and after a shakey start was a standout with the ball. Lisa Wilms provided leadership on the court and had a good playday in the later stages. Krys Spenst has developed into an outstanding sitter and continually sets up the hitters on the squad with beautiful sets. Linda Krcpp had a steady day playing well throughout the tournament. Lea Roosen also had a good day spiking the ball and showing improvement every time out. Vicki Rutter had another day of great hustle, drive and determination and helped preserve many points with her spiking and setting. The bench which comprises Lori Guran, Peggy Suko, Anne Heese, Rakena Macharin, Cathy Waterfield (who played her best all day) helped and played superbly when inserted Into the games. The team now moves into the Fraser Valley tournament at Mountain Friday at 2:00 wilh the first two teams hoping for a provincial playday. The senior boys volleyball learn split four games last week.

Aldergrove conies away with a tie Aldergrove • Aiqergrove travelled to Chilliwack last Sunday to play Chilliwack United and came away with a tie. Chilliwack has not lost a game all season, but the hard work of Aldergrove took a point away from them. • Aldergrove came on strong from the opening whistle but it was Chilliwack who got the first , goal. Aldergrove did have the opportunity but could not get one by the hometown keeper. The Aldergrave kiieppr, Anderson had to come up with good saves to keep Chilliwack from getting more than one goal. The half ended one nothing for Chilliwack. The second'half started the same way.as they left off from the first; It' was Chilliwack who 'scored the next goal. Aldergrove defences got a little mixed up and keeper Anderson could not keep the ball out. ' . With Aldergrove down by two goals, Chilliwack thought they had the game in their pocket. Randy Keely got Aldergrove's first goal from a pass down the middle and had ho trouble putting it past the Chilliwack keeper. Aldergroye came on stronger and really pushed the Chilliwack defence back and they were just kicking the ball out. Aldergrove did not let up and it paid off when one of the Chilliwack defenders, handled the ball inside the 18 yard box. Dan Deglan put in a high shot catching the . Chilliwack keeper going the other way. With the score tied Chilliwack came on stronger and keeper Anderson had to come up with the best game that he has played this season. It did not matter what Chilliwack did, Anderson was able to keep the ball out. Aldergrove worked throughout the game and again it paid off. Chilliwack has not lost a game, or a point so far this season. This was a great uplift for the Aldergrove players. Every player worked hard but Syd Anderson had to be the outstanding player of the game. Final score Aldergrove 2 • Chilliwack 2. Bopper's keeper foils Go-Getters Yost improvement shown in Eskimos team play ALDERGROVE - Sunday afternoon at the Aldergrove high school saw the Aldergrove Go- Getters play the soccer Boppers in their return game of the annual Seattle exchange. After last week's 4-1 loss to the Boppers the Aldergrove girls were hoping to take this game to tie the series. The first half turned out to be a very dull affair with neither team being able to get going but by half time whistle the Boppers had taken a one goal lead when they had capitalized on a defensive mix-up. The second half was to be a real exciting one with the Go- Getters starting to play their normal aggressive style of game' and on one of their raids were awarded a penalty kick; which Nancy Clark coolly put past the Boppers keeper to tie the game at 1 - 1. The Go-Getters were buzzing around the visitors goal constantly but found the Boppers keeper in excellent form and it was thanks to her that the game ended in that 1 -1 tie. Michelle Ring played her usual good game as did keeper Tracy Stevenson who could not be faulted for the goal. Nancy Clark was a tireless worker and if her fellow forwards had given hermore help the Go-Getters could have won this one. All in all an enjoyable weekend with the girls meeting many new friends. ALDERGROVE - Saturday, Nov. 3 at Shortreed elementary the Eskimos played a regular league game against the newly formed Whalley Whitecaps. The Eskimos were the class of the two teams but as last time, Whalley stayed in the game and eventually earned a tie by heart and tenacity. During the first half the Eskimos stormed all over .the Whitecaps' net and hit the post, corssbar, or overshot the gaping net, but no goal, The second half turned out to be a see-saw. The Eskimos scored early In the first half on a goal by David Ellis. This was promptly answered by the Whitecaps, Then Doug Ramsey, doing one of his characteristic rushes, leaned into one from well out and to the right of the goal. It curved high and on target. The goalie watched as it sailed just underneath the crossbar. Again the Whitecaps responded quickly. The Eskimos had a glorious opportunity just prior to the final whistle as a crossing pass slipped by the goalie and past the post. lt was a very enjoyable game to watch for the friends and fans of the Eskimos.The excitement was heightened because Bob Whitehouse, who was standing in for coach John Potter freely substituted the boys into various positions. Their resulting play demonstrated that the' Eskimos are gaining that all important sense of the game. Perhaps Jamie Booker summarized the boys attitude toward the game best when the following day Jim Cairns asked him the score of the previous day. Jamie replied, "2 to 2 for us!" Sunday, Nov. 3 at Steele park the Bothel Wolves came to play the second half of the Seattle exchange. Several of the.Bothel1 team had not made the trip because of the chicken pox and flu. However, they fielded eleven and the fans present were thoroughly entertained. The Wolves scored fast but as had been the case on Saturday, the Eskimos quickly earned the equalizer with .Neil Messmer . driving in a corss from David Ellis. ■Then taking a throw in from Doug McClurg, Jeff Kleesoon eluded two defences and made it 2 -1 for the Eskimos at the half. The second half saw the Wolves sag a bit and David Ellis scored the third Eskimo goal. , Perhaps the score would have been higher for the Eskimos but the Wolves had a sensational goalie who deflected, grabbed and stole the ball to the frustration of the Eskimos and the delight of the fans. This reporter had not seen the Eskimos play in some time and would like to mention the vast improvement in the Eskimo team play. . All the friends and fans would like to thank Jamie, Phil, Dean, Jeff K„ Doug Mc, David, Warren, Nicky, Neil, Doug R. Brad, Mark, Ian, Jeff E. and Jeff K for their contribution to two enjoyable Weekends of soccer.

Aldergrove Cents vs Everett Irish By GEORGE MAILER ALDERGROVE • After spending the previous night entertaining guests the Cents were eager Sunday to prove to the Everett Irish who was the better team. Blair Baker found the mark after a dazzling run down the right wing. Not to be outdone the American team were going all out for the equalizer but were contained with the Aldergrove defence working over time. On one defensive lapse the Irish found the mark on a cross ball I thought the keeper had a chance at. But with the Centennials missing a penalty shot and Nicky Sabo making a lot of fine saves the game ended on a tie. Thanks to all the parents for their participation and to the Lions club for the use of their faciltiics and donation of ice cream. Sandra Smith deserves special mention for her tireless effort in once again making the Seattle exchange the ultimate success.

After last week's 7 - 0 loss to the much bigger and older Stingers the Lightweights were determined to give a better showing. There was no doubt as to how good the Stingers were, but even they were taken by surprise by the way the Lightweights played their positions and passed the ball, especially the forwards. They were not being intimidated by the bigger team like they were Ihe previous week and played an excellent game. The final acore was 3 - 0 in favor of the visitors and a very happy coach, Bob Ramsay, would like to thank the girls and parents for making the exchange a huge success. A special thanks goes to young Billy Clark who handled the officiating very well.

Lightweights mismatched ALDERGROVE - The local under 11 girls soccer team participated last weekend in the annual Seattle soccer exchange and were hosted, by a team from Woodinville called the Stingers. If one .considers that the Lightweights team consisted of eight ten-year-olds, three nine- year-olds and three eight-year- olds it will show how tough it was going to be for these girls to compete favourably against a team consisting of all eleven- year-olds who have played together for four years. The first half the Lightweights played excellent soccer and came out of the period down by one goal with goalie Kim Green playing heroic between the posts. The second half was not too old when the Stingers struck again. At this point the Lightweights just folded as the older girls bombarded their goal and scored five more to end the game at 7-0 in favor of the American girls. A great effort by the Lightweights in the first half but they were very badly mismatched and although they tried, just could not keep it up. The Township of.

' 856-7012 FROM THE FINANCIAL POST OCT. 1. 1979 OorKldat 6+ Our Schools: D" Our school systems have the immensely important task of preparing Canada's children to become useful, functional adults, ready and able to keep this country humming. They are ' failing that task miserably. Today our public schools teach sex, but not morality. Today such concepts as courtesy, consideration and respect have been replaced with the notion | that "doing your own thing" is how society works. Today's, so-called, progressive educators hold that discipline, rules, even competition are all bad for the child - that somehow they destroy initiative, cramp creativity. Our schools have long since stopped challenging the child to do his individual best. Only the statistical average is required for a pass and even this paltry criterion seems to be getting lower and lower. The result is a lifelong attitude of doing just barely enough to get by. Diligence, hard work, stiff standards, self discipline - all have dwindled in our classrooms. And with their departure our children have lost the joy of real achievement, the ' knowledge that exceptional effort brings exceptional results. Universities are now giving literacy tests to high school graduates, and some schools are hiring security guards. These arc the clearest results of our present style of education. These arc the consequences of permissiveness, the abandonment of moral, ethical and spiritual instruction, "free" curricula and all the other experiments of the New Education. These reflect the loss of clear rules, challenge and iron insistence on the basics in our public school systems. Our schools are falling our children. It's time to face that fact, and to do something about it.

School board surplus could have been put to better use, soys LTA member THE ALDEROROVE STAR, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 7,197? 9 A It was lights out but Double-T 4-H horse Club still shine bright By ANNE BERT1NG LANGLEY - Ungley Teachers' Association member Wendy Johnson Monday charge.d that last year's school board surplus of $217,000 could have been used for Improved services and facilities in Langley's schools. Instead, the surplus, which earned the board a 1140,000 tax reduction for Langley property- owners, has to be returned to the ministry, The charges came at Monday's school board meeting held in Langley senior secondary school gymnasium which was filled to capacity with.parents of pupils attending Peterson Road elementary demanding a solution to classroom overcrowding. A staff proposal for an Itinerant teacher and a portable classroom was rejected by the board last week, and concerned parents met with superintendent of schools, Dr. Len Sampson Thursday, November 1, but nothing was resolved. . A particular class size grievance had been filed by a grade four teacher who has a class of 35. At A LTA executive meeting held just before Monday's school board meeting, it was decided that "unless the grade four teacher's grievance was resolved vaolci .by November 6, the association, in consultation with the BCTF,. would, support action up to and including withdrawal of services as from November 13. The BCTF would also be requested to declare the position in dispute if the problem is not resolved by November 13." Parents presenting a brief Monday supporting the staff proposal were told by the board that the school was now being restructured to help solve the problem, but at the expense of the school's music program. There would also be several split classes, Up till now the Peterson Road music teacher, Karry Queras, had taught music only. Her program has been, hailed by the board as the best In the province. But as a result of the restructuring she would not teach regular classes as well. Also under the new structure the grade fours would be split into three classes, one split with grade threes in a class of 30, a second of 31 grade four students only, and a third of 31 split with grade fives. Parents at Monday's school board meeting expressed Intense dissatisfaction with the measures taken to solve the overcrowding problem. Sampson said that whereas the music program would not be eliminated, it would nevertheless not be as enriched as it was. . "If we make concessions for Peterson Ro;d we will have to do It for all the schools. I recommended to the board that we no depart from the principle of equity, that is every school to be treated the same. If we gave all the schools an extra teacher, you, the public, would have to pay for it in extra taxes," Sampson said. ' : Two years ago the ministry approved 512,000 for an extension to the School.. Parents wondered Monday where it had gone. I. - Sampson explained that at that time an extension to Peterson Road was not considered top priority, and a large portion of that sum has' been spent on facilities for schools where the need was greater. LTA president Terry Eastman said Tuesday that school board chairman Brian Westwood has at no time said that the money is not available to meet the parents' demands. "They, must be operating on a surplus 'again. I challenge the board to sfatc openly that it hasn't the, money", Eastman said. ■ ■■■(''■■■ Langley school board deceleration |MURRAYV1LLE - Slow learners ,r;in the primary grades will now •have the opportunity to complete grades one to three In four years instead,of three, thanks to the standardization of a deceleration program endorsed by the Langley school board Monday. Thcj program is the first in the province and applies to children . assessed1 as working to capacity but who arc unable to keep pace with the regular class. ' A committee of eight principals .chaired by Mike Ryan, principal of Bradshaw elemen- ' tary school, has been at work for ■nearly a year under the guidance of director of special services Dr. Shirley Rawlyk McBride, formulating the program. "Some children who don't fall into the category of handicapped simply need more time to complete the primary grades", McBride said. An average of two pupils' per primary class fall into this category, McBride said, adding that many teachers in Langley are already using a deceleration program, but what was needed was standardization. Once identified, preferably in kindergarten, on the basis of standardized tests, pupil" per formance and teacher observation, the parents of these children will bij consulted. This will be followed by a case conference, involving the parents, classroom teacher, principal and any other specialist staff that may be required. The program will aim at pacing these children at one- and-a-half years for each of the three primary grades. Parents will be Informed of the completion of any particular grade level when a report card will be issued,, 'Whether or not this coincides with a regular reporting period: ' "\' \\ SI .', pUricil delight irv denying appeal MURRAYVILLE - It was obvious that councilmen here took great delight in denying an appeal to 'the agricultural land reserve > forwarded to ,them by the prov- •' incial agricultural land commls- j sion. The application dealt with 87 acres in Langley owned by the commission. Land is located on the west .side of 248 Street between 64 and 68 Avenues, Commission was seeking local endorsement of a division and reforming the lands into two long term parcels and one green belt parcel. Commission chairman A.C. Kinnear had just informed Langley that the municipality's request for exclusion of land in the Murrayville area from the land freeze had been denied. Another application from four north Aldergrove property owners met with more success. Joint owners Norm, Margaret, Harry and Jane Green asked for permission to subdivide one acre off their 10-acre property for a building site. The land is already separated by 264 Street. Council approved of this application although a report from planning director Gerry Sawicki indicated there could be prob lems with access and a good building site. ' . . "iw*CKH>-_8ze FO. AfieCUNHl.

"I'm a bit of both, larry. I'm very pessimiatic about the world, but I'm optimistic about Christians." "Do you mind explaining that, Dad. Maybe your ideas would help mc with my essay.' 1 have lo describe the difference between an optimist and a pessimist and I didn't think a person could be both at the same lime". "O.K. Larry I'll start with the bad news. The reason 1 think the world's prospects are grim is really the same reason why I'm glad lhat you and 1 arc Christians. It's because 1 believe what ihe bible says. Pass me your bible and I'll show you. Here we are. look, Matthew 24. The disciples ask Jesus what will happen when he comes back at the end of the world. That's verse 3. and then Jesus goes on in talk about false prophets. Do you remember Jim Jones?" "That was the guy who murdered Ihe people in Guyana last year, wasn't it?" "That's tight, Larry; he was a false prophel. Then Jesus mentions wars, famines and earthquakes, and he says, here in verse 14, that the gospel will be preached through the world, and lite end will come." "What's this about Daniel in verse 15?" "Let's look it up. The footnote says Daniel 9:27. Oh yes. that's about the world leader who is to rule for seven years. That time is known as Ihe Great Tribulation. It's quite a big subject and you could read, say, the last four chapters of Daniel and a few in Ezckicl, which would be 36 to .18. You'll also find footnotes referring you to Revelation. It you read those scriptures I hink you'll be convinced, as I am, lhat this old world won't last much longer. That doesn't mean wc should give up caring about it, but wc must always remember thai Jesus says he's coming to collect his chosen people." "And is that what you're optimistic about?" "Yes. It's great lo be a Christian because wc know for sure that wc belong to Jesus. If lie is for us who can be against us? Whatever happens lo us or lo the world, we're going to live forever, starling now. The world will give trials and tribulations but we can lake courage because our King has already conquered Ihe world. And just hink; we're his children." **» As il happens there was a gathering of the United Church Renewal Fellowship in Victoria last weekend, and I was one of several members of the two local churches who attended.

The Renewal Fellowship is a group of Christians within the church across Canada who are concerned to see the United Church restored to its bible believing foundations. The theme speaker at Victoria was Rev. Albert Baldeo of St. James United Church, Edmonton, h is a very amusing speaker and the whole weekend reflected his unrestrained joy in the Lord. Each of the 150 who attended must have many precious stories to tell. Here's one that had a profound effect on me. On a couple of occasions we were divided into groups of about 10 to discuss what we'd heard. One member of my group was a man called Herbert who's had a rough time in World War II and had been struggling ever since lo lead a good life. He was honest enough to admit that despite regular participation in church he wasn't much of a ChristianO in fact he didn't know for sure if he was a Christian. This bothered him because most of the others at the conference were obviously very sure. Another member of the group was a young lady no more than half of Herbert's age. She had been very dramatically converted from a dreadful Ufe of drugs and cult activities to one of sheer Christian ecstasy. The theme speaker had mentioned, half in jest, that Christians who received the baptism of the Holy Spirit should be locked up for six months till they come down to earth, and this girl was conspicuously at that stage. She more or less put Herbert on the spot by asking him if he sould like to invite Jesus into his life right now so he'd know the joy and peace that he obviously lacked. Herbert bravely consented for the group to pray for him and seldom have I heard such beautiful prayers. Before the conference was over 1 saw Herbert again. He came quietly to me, and probably to the others, during a coffee brak. He shook my hand and said "Thank you". Just from the look in his eyes I knew without doubt that he'd opened the door of his heart and invited Jesus in. I thought of those word in Luke IS about the rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents.

MOTION PICTURE LANGLEY FUNERAL HOME PHONE LANGLEY: 530-6488 HENDERSONS FUNERAL HOMES ADDOTSKORD LTD. PHONE: 853-8381 Nuclear plants in space By STEPHEN KAWAMOTO With all the nuclear accidents happening on this continent; you get lo wondering: Is it such a' good idea to put a nuclear reactor on the eart in the first place? After Three Mile Island and in the wake of the movie "China Syndrome," nothing can be certain. No one can say that a nuclear reactor is truly safe. Even so. we do not need nuclear power as well as solar, thermo-electric and tidal power. The Arab oil squeeze is doing a job on our economy, save other equally important issues. But is is nuclear power that is the present issue. No one like a nuclear accident. We have enough problems coping with the subtle effects that certain chemicals have on our chromosomes. Mutation by excessive radiation only adds to the question: Will our children be born healthy or deformed? And even tiny doses of radiation may cause cancer to show up In us, as well as in our descendants. So, we must find a way to prevent radioactive leaks in reactors before the stuff finds it way into the eco-system. Otherwise, the radiation may kill us before there is a World War HI. A simple solution for the problem was proposed back in the 1950's, not by a scientist but by a science fiction author. In one of his stories, Robert A. Heinlein wrote of the problems encountered by people running a nuclear reactor. Because of the environmental hazards, Heinlein proposed that nuclear reactors be placed in stable orbits around the earth. The power generated by them can then be beamed to Earth via microwaves. Even today, a far more safe propposal Is to place solar generating plants in orbit around the earth. Of course, one can always compromise and put a dual purpose generating plant in orbit. When it is in sunlight, it generates solar power; in darkness, nuclear power. Although this solution seems feasible, most governments would rather be down to earth. A nuclear/solar power plant >is space may be cleaner and non- polluting but the costs involved in placing enough of them in orbit is enormous, lt is better instead lo upgrade the earthside reactors than to uproot them and send them into space. Heinlein may have had a good idea back in the 19S0's but it will cost too much to build today. It is a lot safer to make do with what we have. My shepherd the Lord By ANN SAUNDERS "A man finds happiness only by walking his own path." and especially if ahead of him on that path is the Divine Shepherd. . . , Pastor Les Sayler, of the Aldergrove Adventist Church, chose as his scripture text one of the world's most loved Bible chapters - Psalm 23, beginning with the words: "The Lord Is my Shepherd, I shall not want." "Of all creatures the sheep is one of the most timid and helpless, and in the. East the shepherd's care for his flock is untiring an incessant.

"Pastor Sayler continued: "The sheep who stay, closest to the shepherd are the strongest and healthiest." As an earthly shepherd knows his sheep, so does the divine Shepherd know His flock that are scattered throughout the world. Ezekial 34:31: "And ye my flock, the flock of my pasture, all men, and I am your God, saith the Lord God." The sheep know the voice of the Shepherd and by name he calls them and they in, turn, follow. Just as the earthly shepherd goes before his' sheep, himself first encountering the perils of the way, so does Jesus with flls people. His feet have pissed down the cruel thorns, to make the pathway easier for us. '. .,' The 23rd psalm concluded: Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life and I will dwell In the house of the Lord forever." "The Shepherd trail has led through pleasant meadows, By waters still and over troubled sea, The paths of righteousness, the shadowed valley; Are, all within the way "He leadeth me" • No path too dificulvno trail too lonely, UqtiLat last, beyond the journey's end, The Shepherd opens wide the heavenly sheepfold, And greets His sheep as their eternal Friend."

Positive Vibrations presented to you by MIKE'S MUSIC CENTRE RECORD SHOPPE ALDERGROVE CENTRE MALL Phone 656-2031 Maalar charge and Chargex/Vila accepted By ISAAC The pop side of the new wave has certainly left its mark. Blondic, the Knack, Joe Jackson, Nick Lowe and Dave Edmunds have buried disco and tmade the airwaves . listcnable I again. It is not surprising that ' the market is being flooded with new pop groups all trying to cash in on the goldrush. Many of these groups are overnight fabrications, the sound alike Blondles and the Knack clones and their records aren't worth the cardboard they're shipped. Naturally enough there is a strong public backlash growing in protest, unfortunately a few bona fida pop groups arc going to suffer unjustly for being just a bit late. Both The Shoes and The Pop will be branded as Knack imitators when-in fact they both • predate that band by a year or more. The Shoes stuck lo the 'do-il-yourscir route recording Ihcir first single "Okay" and their first album in their basemen!. The album became an underground hit in select record stores. Likewise The Pop's early material was recorded and distributed independently to a knowledgeable few. After the surprise success of the Knack the record companies went shopping for their own pop groups picking up The Shoes and The Pop among others. Now lhal Ihcir material is available to the general public they will likely be called imitators rather lhan the leaders, of the new American pop. Both The Shoes Present Tense and The Pop's Go! have lots to offer Ihe new pop fan: good songs, catchy melodies, strong vocal harmonies and above all inoffenslve- ncss. Pop's greatest virtue is lhal it can be played again and again without wearing thin, ultimately it becomes nothing more than lively background music. Still it can be fun while it lasts and good pop music is an art form that not,every band can reproduce, so try oul the good ones and pass on the rest. England has Ils own full roster of pop groups with The Yachts being this months model. Their album S.O.S. is a perfect example of the strengths and weaknesses of the pop idiom. The album has some great songs such as "Yachting Type" and "Semaphore Love" and good, clear production by Blondle's former producer Richard Gotte- lircr but It Is very hard to take It all I seriously. Their nautical theme is just a reworking of the ground covered by Sailor In the mid-seventies and to my mind Sailor did a much better job. Still the album is lively enough lo warrant a few spins on the old turntable and the above mentioned songs would make excellent AM singles. A record that is a bit more demanding and .challenging is life In a Day by Simple Minds. The album's high points "Chelsea Girl" and the title cut far surpass The Yachts for their solid beat; their music is muph more challenging and ultimately more, rewarding, If you're getting tired of pop music give Simple Minds a listen, they are definitely NOT background music.

The annual benefit concert of the faculty was held on Saturday evening to a full house. The opening number, a trumpet "Voluntary" by Chris Robertson proved the acoustics to be crystal clear and the work of guitarist Alan Rlnehar could be heard, especially in "H Collbri" (the Hummingbird) in the very last row. This was also true in the flute and guitar presentation of Caroline Janos and Peter Higham "Sicilinenne' by Gabrial and "Tambourin" by Gossec. The unusual trombone solo by Douglas Sparkes "Lullaby" by Spillmanis seldom years and Sparkes was accompanied by guest Cynthia Vea. Hampton arranged four ensemble groups to show the versatility of the faculty. A trio of Leslie Janos, piano; Wendy Hamper, violin and Ian Hampton, cello, presented Piano Trio H 1 D minor by Mendellssohn. A second very different trio of piano, clarinet and bassoon played by Patricia Stark, Pat Daniels and James Ewen presented the Allegro Moderate from the Trio Pathetlque by Glinka. The second half of the program featured quartets • Rondo from Oboe Quartet In F major by Mozart was made up of David Owen, Wendy Hamper, Peter Van Ooyan and In Hampton. The traditional string quartet played by Ulo Valdma on piano, Wendy Hamper on violin, Peter Van ooyen on viola and Ian Hampton on cello performed the Piano quartet in C minor by Brahms. Two piano solos - the first by Lorna Paterson, Scherzo in B minor by Chopin • a real challenge for any pianist and the Rhapsody in G minor by Brahms performed by Barbara Ziellnski were well received by the aucience. The final number of the program was a two piano presentation of Tarantella, suite 17 by Rachmaninoff with Marilyn Lamont and Lorna Paterson at the keyboard of two grand pianos. This was a very ambitious program for the performers, all members of the faculty of the Langley Community Music School. John Salmon, president of the board of directors of the LCMS outlined the progress the school had made and thanked the granting agencies, Vancouver Foundation, Leon and Thea Koerner Foundation, Explorations, Canada Council, B.C. Cultural Fund, Langley Arts council and the city of Langley for their past support. It was pointed out that the school had used up these one time grants and must now rework the financial structure of the school with more support from the private sector of the community who receives direct services of such a school in its midst. All proceeds of the concert were placed in the LCMS endowment fund. Thanks was also expressed to George Preston for the use of his building for the concert. An announcement was made regarding a series of concerts to begin in January and one concert per month until June. These concerts will be held in.the arts centre. Since seating is limited anyone particularly interested in attending is advised to call the office at 534-2848 and reserve tickets. By MARY STEWART BROOKSWOOD - The community hall here is even busier than usual these days, as the date approaches for the opening of Langley Players' fall production of "The Marriage Go-Round". This adult comedy, directed by Alex Helm, and produced by Ian Lake, opens Thursday, November 15, at 8 p.m. and runs Nov. 15-18, 22-25, 29 and Dec. li The story of this play deals with the problems that arise when a young Swedish "bombshell" with a proposition, comes to stay with an intelligent happily married couple. Jean Wat son and newcomer Ross Mara play the couple; Helen Affleck plays the young lady with a "mission", and Steven Trotter is a family friend. Allan Ward Is assistant director, and Beda Martin is stage manager. For reservations, call 530-3629, and book early, as this promises to be a popular show.

This should be one of the year's most interesting shows; »♦• The long-overdue farewell performance of Led Zeppelin earlier this year may turn out to have .been a hoax, as there Is talk of a world tour for this foursome. Their recent lp "In through the out door" was a pitiable exercise in boredom and yet managed to hit the top of the charts. These characters, who collectively own van Gogh's ear for music, have proven once again how easy it is to rest on one's laurels and make millions. •»* The Knack, another top seller, play the coliseum tomorrow evening. Although they've succeeded commercially much disdain has also been awarded for their shallowness, as witness the "Knuke the Knack" campaign. A lot of things have been said in alluding similarities common among them and the' Beatles, but I find this a little hard to swallow. The Beatles are still making news today, and are still making money from their songs (possibly more now than ever before), whereas the Knack aren't likely to be household word six months from now.. One possibility open to the Knack is to sell the rights to "My Sharona" to Chef-Boy-Ar- Dee for commercial jingle use. (Remember the chocolate bar advert which extolled their virtues, "Chew it, chew it, chew it till you're satisfied," as taken from the faded "Do it"?)

It works equally well with Beef-a-roni and others. You'll see the commercial possibilities immediately.

The resolution was one of 50 and placed on the order paper by Langley constituency association. Speaking to the resolution, Council endorses recommendation MURRAYVILLE • ^Municipal, council here has endorsed a recommendation from the utilities and enterprises committee that all existing water and sewer areas in the township be amalgamated into one overall Lang- Icy area and charging a uniform frontage cost of S6S. Any water and sewer areas taken over by the municipality in the future will also be included in this area. Deggie Peterson of Aldergrove stressed the importance by saying that 2,500 children are seriously hurt in automobile accidents in British Columbia every year. Delegates from neighboring Central Fraser Valley riding association voted against. _ . The convention attracted .,118 delegates from all B.C. constituencies to the Hyatt Regency here Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Archeological crew digging for the past Canada most over-governed country in west VANCOUVER - Canada is the most over-governed country in the western world, a Social Credit convention delegate said here last week. A resolution proposed by Cariboo constituency association which would see the concept of regional districts "abolished in the interests of de-regulation and cost control, and that a review be made of providing Chief municipal planner retires present services through the existing provincial and municipal administrations", was tabled following heated discussion on the convention floor. "We have already studied (the concept) to death," a delegate said, when a task force was suggested. "The regional districts are just not working." A new task force to study the RD's amounted to "NDP tactics," he said.

"I started the job in my army uniform," Major recalls, He had just then been released from active duty in the Canadian armed forces at the end of the second world war. From 1945 to 19S6 Major worked for the board of works department. In 19S6 he became the municipality's planner.

This upcoming year will be their fourth year of playing. At present they have six teams and want to increase to a minimum of eight. There will be double headers played every Monday through to Thursday, starting off in early May. Anybody interested in playing ball or any team wishing to enter into the league, should contact Bill Bettles at S34-46S1. Teams in the league are pleased with the development of the new park and hope that the new facilities will bring about more interest in fastball in the area. Along with the Lions club, the league has proposed to give the municipality $20,000 over the next five years. They feel the new park, along with the present facilities will create one of the best fastball parks in the lower mainland. "We like to thank Darch Oborne, manager of parks and recreation, for his support and time, and will enjoy working with him and the Lions club in this enterprise," a league spokesman said.

Agricultural land must be more precisely defined in terms of growing potential. ADMINISTRATION-As we move into the 1980's we must have a strong and decisive municipal administration. "The good old boys" are not the best old boys. RESIDENTS-The people who live here are the people who count here. They must be heard, Their ideas must receive a fair and honest hearing at Council. COUNCIL - Meetings must be changed from afternoon to evening so that our working residents can attend. This is still a participatory democracy. THE SYSTEM-Have you ever heard that the bureaucrat runs government? We heard it too. and we don't like It.

WE ALL DO- VOTE Edgelow/MacTavish THE ALDEROROVE STAR, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 1979 HAIRDRESSERS Bringing out the best For those who have mixed their own hair color and emerged with interesting shades of chartreuse, Or those who have applied beauty treatments guaranteed to catch the eye of the opposite sex but end up catching only stares of disbelief . . . there is help. "Actually, there's always been help," says Irene Fran-' gides, director of the Council for the Cosmetology Industry. Where should you turn? "To your local hairdresser," she says. "Most consumers don't know it, but hairdressers who work in salons are licensed professionals who have spent at least l ,500 hours learning about anatomy, biology, chemistry, nutrition, psychology, bacteriology and art principles. "Besides the training for certification, many of them take post-graduate courses and learn scientific techniques to analyze clients' needs. "As professionals, they have the time and knowledge to develop personalized beauty and health care regimes for their clients—the time and knowledge most cosmetics salespeople in a drugstore do not have. "They also have the background to tell you about Ihe meaning of the ingredients listed on labels," says Ihe former freelance beauty writer for Vogue, Harper's Bazaar and Good Housekeeping. THIS WOMAN'S OVAL FACE looked aquare wilh her former 'haircut. After consulting with her liairdremer, _he decided upon a shorter style which shows off ihe oval shape to greater advantage. She also learned some makeup lips to bring oul her deep-sel eyes. The beauty salon of today is a lot different from the salon of Ihe 50s or even the 60s. Many scientific advances have been made. For example, wilh the help of machines, hairdressers can perform a detailed analysis of your hair. Besides the advanced hair services many salons are offering, some go further and feature waxing, massages and even exercise classes. "Whatever your style, there is a salon which is right for you" says Irene. "If you want a small, cozy atmosphere or an ultra-modern one, keep looking until you tlnd it and a hairdresser with whom you can effectively communicate." One of the best ways to find that special hairdresser or salon is to ask someone whose hairstyle you admire for a recommendation. Find out who docs her hair, and visit the salon and meet the stylist to sec if it's the right place and the right person for you. "And don't be afraid to communicate," she concluded.

In the Little Red School House days there were no special program for anybody. Everybody took the same program. Those who could not keep up with the program left school and went to work. Those who caused trouble were Invited to leave. Discipline codes laid down by school boards in Langley are not a new Invention. At a meeting of the trustees of the Langley school district held POPPY TALK Drama department busy nursing Draculas Baby By ANNA MARIA BEERE and ZEU HUANG OTTER - The musical theatre class, under the direction of Mr. Kowalenko, Miss Anderson and Mrs. Kennedy, has been working very hard on the drama production. This is set for three nights in January -- the 16th, 17th and 18th. The musical which is entitled "Dracula Baby", is a comical farce set in England. The assistant director is Lisa Morelli, a grade 9 students, who has done an excellent job of directing when Mrs. Kennedy is busy with the stagecraft and technical aspects of the production. Mr. Kowalenko is the conductor and he also rehearses the soloists and chorus. You'll soon hear them singing out. The head of the costume and make-up department is Ms. Anderson. She has allowed the students quite a variety of opportunity within the course framework; often students are called upon to design the costumes and execute that design completely. Students taking this course certainly learn more than they bargained for. Everyone is looking forward to the big production day and the advertising campaign will soon be in full swing. The grade 8 boy's volleyball team won the Langley and district league championship with 38 points. Brookswood came in second with 34 points. Fort Langley was third with 29 points, Aldergrove fourth with 28 paints, The top four teams advance to the Langley and district play-offs at Poppy on October 31. The Poppy soccer team has completed league play with 3-3 win-loss record. High scorers for the season were Dan Roberge and Gary Croft. The grade 8 girls volleyball team worked very hard on their defensive game this week. Outstanding on defense were Karen Wright, Joy Jackson, Michelle Nelson and Kerstin Baxter, The junior boy's volleyball team won the final playday on Thursday, October 25 with five wins and one loss. Brookswood came second with four wins and two losses. League play is now finished and congratulations to Brookswood for their overall first place finish. Poppy came in second by only one game. Weather report. in the town hall in Langley on June 28, 1899, with trustees G. Simpson, W. H. Rawlison, and D. M. Coulter present, the following is recorded in the minutes: "After considerable discussion over the standing of the school and actions of several schoolers (sic) - Mr. A.H.P. Matthews the present teacher was called in and engaged for the next term with full powers to punish or expell any schoolers found guilty of any such conduct as has been reported." Perhaps these troublesome "schoolers" of 1899 were bright students who were bored waiting for the other students to catch up, and decided to raise a little trouble for excitement. Whatever the case, in today's complex school system, programs are being provided for the above average learner, as this week's column indicates: The thrill of a soccer game, a trip to the art gallery, music lessons or a family picnic are all activities which broaden our experiences and enrich our lives. However* within the school setting, the word 'enrichment' takes on a special meaning. In Langley, there are about a thousand children who could be considered 'fast learners'. These children have little difficulty mastering school work intended for their age level. They usually require only a few repetitions to learn new material and often finish their assignments quickly.

These 'fast learners' have the highest dropout rate of any group of children in our school system! When we consider that these are also.the children most likely to benefit from a good education, we begin to see the importance of enriching their school experiences. A child who sits idly at his or her desk waiting for others to catch up is likely to develop poor work habits. Another who has already mastered the basic skills of a particular grade level does not benefit from , having to relearn them. We can identify four basic areas which would fall into the category of 'academic enrichment': • Experiences which broaden or deepen the child's understanding ofthe basic curriculum. • Activities which introduce the child to new areas not normally dealt with in the basic curriculum. • Interdisciplinary concepts which tie together the difference subject areas. • Investigation of problems which normally occur outside the school setting or in the 'working world'. Enrichment can occur in large or small groups or even in the form of independent study. Learning centres and task cards can be used to encourage these children to pursue constructive activities whenever they have some extra time. For the very brightest children, those who could be considered 'gifted', even enrichment may not provide sufficient challenge. Gifted children are few in number. There are probably from four to six hundred in the entire Ungley district ranging across 13 grade levels within 39 schools. For a few of them, accelleration as well as enrichment may give them educational experiences suitable to their ability level. In addition to this, opportunities to interact with other highly able students helps to overcome the feeling of isolation Common to so many of these children. At Langley Central Fundamental school, a small group of grade four children are broadening their horizons as they peer through microscopes at droso- phila melanogaster (the common frui-fly). This and other such enrichment activities are a part of a pilot project initiated by tetr ministry of education. Under the supervision of Dr. Stanley Blank of UBC, special materials were developed which the ministry is piloting at the grade 4, 5 and 12 levels at designated schools throughout the province of B.C. This small group at Langley Central Fundamental, spends three periods a week working together with teacher, Doug Hillson, on enrichment activities in science, math, language and social studies. The program emphasizes productive thinking and originality. It promises to be a rewarding experience for students and teacher alike. Another ministry sponsored pilot project for the gifted Is just getting under way at the grade 12 level at Langley secondary school. lt has long been recognized that bright and gifted children need educational experiences beyond those provided in the regular classroom but it has only been in recent years that appropriate programing and organization at the districts In B.C. to have a coordinator responsible for identification and programing for these children. Julie Petersen, the helping teacher, has been working since last year to . lend support to teachers who must work overtime to provide enrichment and who require materials and resources appropriate for children of higher ability levels. The provincial pilots are in their first year of operation and it will take some time before they are integrated Into the school system. Yet ministry support represents a major step for gifted education. Combined with community involvement and program development at district and school levels, parents can look forward to a wide variety of options which recognize that gifted children vary greatly in their social and emotional characteristics. Langley is working toward an educational system which recognizes and meets the needs of children of all ability levels and will endeavor to inform the community of our progress as' new programing is initited.

Elementary school children in British Columbia arc being killed in traffic accidents al the rate of one a week while seven are injured every day. These grim figures are contained in a report and survey commissioned by the insurance Corporation of B.C.' and the B.C. Year of the Child and the Family and carried oul by the Motor Vehicle Branch. Hugh Earlc, The Insurance Corporation's Road Safely Manager says, "The survey's results arc shocking. Every driver, every parent, every person concerned for the safety of children should take note of ihe survey." "Death and injury lurk everywhere for school children," says Ihe report. "At play, on the way to school and while cycling." In cold statistics: 53 children aged five lo 15 were killed in traffic accidents in 1978. that's live more than in 1977. In 1978 a total of 2,692 chilrcn aged six to 15 were injured .in traffic accidents -- that on the average is more than seven children every day of the year. Other highlights of the report: + More traffic injuries occur in July and June than in any other month; by far the smallest number occur in January. + Mosl traffic injuries and fatalities occur on Thursday and Saturday. + Two thirds of all traffic fatalities and injuries in the age group, six lo j5 years, occur in daylight, particularly in Ihe af- lernoon. The report stales thai more fatal traffic accidents occur in rural and undeveloped areas than in other areas such as business and shopping zones. In fact, rural and undeveloped areas along with family residential areas, account for 77 percent of fatal accidents. Schools and INFO HEALTH Dr Bob Young Fur every patient lhal visits a physician complaining of headache, there are many more with the same symptom who do not. litis is fortunate as headache is such a common problem thai, if every sufferer appeared in the doctor's office, there would be little time In (real anything else. Physicians recognize 15 types nl headache, and one of these, migraine headache, is divided inlo five subtypes. Diagnosis, therefore, is not always easy. The commonest headache, by ;ar. is tension headache. Also known as muscle contraction headache, it is seen primarily in women and lends 10 recur over periods of many years. Most of us have experienced head discomfort after (or during) a period of stress. This is so common lhat it probably can be regarded as a normal response. More severe tension headaches may occur in anticipation of stress, while some patients may have daily tension headaches when tin recognizable anxiety is present. These people may a* waken with head pain, or it may begin shortly alter getting up each day. Earlier, physicians Tell obligated In exclude other, more serious causes of headache before labelling a particular case as a tension type. While serious disease must still he ruled out, we have learned enough about tension headaches lhal Ihcy can usually be identified by their own characteristic symptoms, Examination of the patient may reveal the presence of jaw .clenching, general anxicly. and teeth grinding. The muscles of Ihe scalp and neck may be tight and lender, and al limes Ihcy contain very sensitive nodules which indicate thai muscle fibres arc in spasm. Treatment begins wilh the exclusion of serious or life- threatening causes of headache, and in Idling Ihe patient that Ihcy have been eliminated as Ihe cause for Ihe present illness. Attempts arc made lo reduce tension-producing events in the patient's life, but this is usually nol effective as Ihe palienl frequently has a personality lhat generates tension.. Pain relieving drugs and tranquilizers arc often used, bul give only short-term improvement. Heal, massage, and other measures designed to relax the muscles are sometimes used. General fitness is encouraged. Biofeedback, general relaxation exercises, and meditation may be useful in individual cases. playgrounds account for eight percent, while recreation, business, shopping, apartment residential, industrial and manufacturing share the other 15 percent. Crossing streets where there arc no signals and no crosswalks is the major cause of pedestrian fatalities and injuries. Over one third of pedestrian injuries are in this category. Indeed, says Ihe report, four of the five most frequent pedestrian actions that cause injury result from crossing a street. Mr. Earle, commenting on the report, says traffic safety programs throughout the province should be cognizant of these very real dangers at intersections. Adults should educate children to the dangers of traffic, and drivers must become more pedestrian-conscious if dcalhs and injuries among young people are to be reduced. The report notes that in 33 percent of fatal accidents, the child involved is a pedestrian; in only four percent of fatal accidents the child is on a bicycle; in iwo thirds the child involved is in a vehicle. Far more children, aged 11 to 15, arc fatally injured while in a vehicle than those who arc from six to 10 years of age. The report looks al different patterns of behavior to ascertain, among other things, good and bad days of the week. Among 11 lo 15 year olds, the lowest number of fatalities happen on a Friday. "One would normally expect this lo be the most dangerous day of Ihe week, judging by the number of Friday night parties. However, such is nol the case," says the report. "It's Thursday!" By SYLVIA McLAREN Before progressing with what this week's column is all about, I must clear up some unfinished business on last week's column. The figure given in that column for children receiving subsidized day care through MHR was 10,000: I personally double- checked that figure with Grace McCarthy before she left the college. However, since we were both in a hurry, there may have been a mutual misunderstanding. To correct that figure-there, are not 10,000, there are approximately 3,300 children . in subsidized day care, according to a major study on the state of children's health in B.C., by Vancouver pediatrician Dr. Roger Tonkin as reported in the Vancouver Sun on Monday, October 29, 1979. On Friday, October 26, the Women's Information Network held a general meeting for ' information exchange at the leisure centre, with 48 people representing recreational, social, service, religious, educational and cultural organizations in the Mission school district. We talked with representatives from MHR, mental health, two churches, the school board, McConnell Creek farmers institutes, Red Cross, rock club, and many others. After a general discussion period, those in attendance reported back advice for WIN staff such as (1) meetings like this are valuable to us-havc more of them, and (2) report THE CORPORATION OF THE TOWNSHIP OF LANGLEY ADVANCE POLL An Advance Poll will be held at the MUNICIPAL OFFICES, 4914 - 221st Street, Langley, on Thursday, November 3th and Friday, November 9th, 1979, between the hours of 9:00 A.M. and 6:00 P.M.

They will re-open for business again on Tuesday, November 13, 1979, at the regular time of 8:30 A.M. Council meeting scheduled for Monday, November 12, 1979 will be held on Tuesday, November 13, 1979 at 2:00 P.M. D. J. DOUBLEDAY MUNICIPAL CLERK 45-80320-1 through the column what WIN is, since some people missed the first few columns. The overall response of the people at the meeting was heartwarming and needless to say, very positive about what WIN is doing. I understand from talking to people after the meeting there were a few dissenting members in the crew, who were playing the "ain't it awful" game about the way the government is spending their money. , My reply to people who feel that way (and there are bound to. be few) is: WIN is a public service which was requested by the people in your commuinty; it is already paid for; so you might as well use it and make it work for you. Governments also fund such things as research projects on the sex life of the tsetse fly, which do very little for the residents of the Fraser Valley. And so-as promised: WIN, a public service, is a short term project coordinating information on programs, activities, and services of potentail interest to women at home. This means that if you want to go out and meet people, get involved in a hobby or volunteer work, that instead of personally calling every agency putting on programming, you will have to make only one telephone call to find out what is available in your community. It not only is of benefit to the homemaker, but will benefit any club, agency, or organization who uses it. f% Corporation of % tEo&maljip of J&mgbg NOTICE Re: Woodburning Stoves ond Appliances The local assistant Fire Commissioner for the Township of Langley would like to remind the public that several fires have been caused by the Improper Installation of woodburning appliances. These units are rapidly becoming more popular as people become aware of the completion of non-renewable energy sources and the ever Increasing cost of fuel. Because this trend has been so fast there has not been enough Information available for the Individual who wants to install such equipment in his home or cabin. ^Furthermore many such -Individuals' belong to the^eWatlon that never had to use solid fuel for Heating and therefore getting their first exposure to an old art .that is being very quickly revived. In the Township of Langley It is necessary to obtain a permit for the Installation of the woodburning appliance and associated chimneys. A maximum lee of $5.00 will cover the cost of the permit. By obtaining a permit the homeowner will be assured of an on-site inspection to insure 'that the installation Is safe. Also available at the office of the' local Assistant Fire Commissioner (Municipal Hall) Is the Provincial Government's guidelines for the safe Installation and use of solid fuel burning appliances at no charge. It Is strongly recommended that the public make use of the Information available to minimize the hazards that can be associated with woodburning appliances. The public should also be aware that when wood Is burnt in regulated wood stoves the possibility of a chimney fire is increased with the amount of the useage. If the woodstove or appliance is used as a primary source of heat for the building the chimney should be cleaned a minimum of every six months. By properly Installing your woodburning appliance and seeing that it is maintained In good operating conditions you can insure yourself of a trouble-free and fire-free winter. 45-80398-2 THE CORPORATION OF THE TOWNSHIP OF LANGLEY Notice of Public Hearing Langley Zoning By-Law Amendment By-Law, 1979 NO. 1915 A PUBLIC HEARING will be held In the Municipal Hall, 4914 - 221nd Street, Langley B.C. on Tuesday, November 13th, 1979 at 1:45 P.M. to discuss an amendment to the Langley Zoning By-law No. 1799.

Squoro Winnipeg, Manitoba R3C3H8 PlCKTHE DRIVER WHO'S GOING TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT. .ou can't, can you ? Neither can we. And that, in a nutshell, is the biggest problem automobile insurance companies like ours have faced for years. Who pays how much ? The traditional solution seemed logical enough: calculate the number of accidents each group was likely to be involved in-young and old, male and female, single and married, where they livc-and charge all members of that group the same premium, depending upon vehicle use. The trouble was, each group contained good drivers and bad drivers. The system simply lumped them together. It wasbased on probabilities, not individual abilities "That's going to change. The Provincial Government has challenged the entire auto insurance industry in British Columbia to come up with a new and non-discriminatory rating system. I.C.B.C.'s answer is Fundamental Auto Insurance Rating. We call it E A.I.R. Because it is fair. The program will start to be phased in on March 1,1980. First priority will be given to removing age, sex and marital status as factors in determining insurance premiums. Those changes will be made in the first two years. Geographic inequalities will start levelling out in 1980 and will be eliminated by 1985. By March 1,1982 the basic idea will be in place: everyone will be innocent /j!r» until proven guilty; everyone will be a safe driver until proven unsafe; everyone will be IK< entitled to a base premium until they lose that right. * - . But if everyone enjoys these rights, they must also share the responsi- bilities.ThafswhyuienewEA.I.R.programincludesaDriverAccident Premium. The implementation of this Accident 1>remium will place the principal responsibility on the driver who causes accidents. Obviously, any program that sets a fair base premium is going to ' cost money. So who'll make up the difference ? The bulk of the money wUl eventually come from those who are responsible for accidents. They'll pay higher premiums. And the more accidents they have, the more frequently they have them, the higher their premiums can go. Isn't that the way it should be ? Thaf s F. A.I. R.

'.' <'-.'i Although rototilling is becoming the accepted practice for preparing a new vegetable garden, it still cannot beat the old method of double digging. Good handwork remains the finest method of preparing soil for garden crops. In small, limited areas it is still the most practical method to use. What exactly is double digging and how do you go about it? Firstly, it should be undertaken in the fall when summer crops have been cleared away, or earlier if the ground to be prepared is not carrying crops, if a portion of work is .done each day. il is surprising how much ground can be covered. Start double digging by taking out a trench two feet wide. Use a measuring line and don't guess what you arc doing. Topsoil from this trench will probably be from eight lo 10 Inches deep. Take Ihe topsoil only and place it at the other end of the plot you are digging, including the loose soil or crumbs. You will now have a trench about 10 inches deep with nothing but subsoil at the bottom. This should be thoroughly broken up with a garden fork, at the same lime mixing in any rotted manure, compost and peat moss lhat you have available. Now leave the first trench and start another alongside. Instead of carting away the topsoil this time, it is turned into the top of ihe first trench, ll should be turned upside down as you go along the trench. When you get down to subsoil again, il should he broken up and manured the same way as in the previous trench. These operations ore repeated Ireneh by trench until the whole plot lias been dealt with and the last trench is filled with topsoil Irom the first trench. Don't overdo the digging at first otherwise you can easily get backache. Do a trench or two at a time when in the mood. If Ihe ground to be broken is old meadowland, the procedure is the same except that the turf should he skimmed off two inches deep first and placed grass-side down at the bottom of ihe trench after the subsoil has been broken up and manured. Don't bury deep rooting weeds such as dandelions and thistles. You can leave the ground as rough as possible in the fall. Don't try to obtain a tilth as frosts will quickly break down any lumps. Remove any large rocks and stones but don't worry about the smaller ones as they actually help the soil aeration and water retention. Get this work done in Ihe fall anil all you have to do in the spring is tn hoc the surface, obtain a good tilth with a rake and sow your seeds. On very heavy land or one with many stones, this fall preparation must sometimes be done with a spading fork, but Ihe best tool for most gardeners is the square spade, not the long-handled shovel. Soil color depends on the amount of humus and the a- motint of iron compounds in the soil. Soils that are red derive their color from the iron oxide that is present while the bluish color is soils is due to the presence of iron sulphide. If the soil is very dark in color, it will contain an abundance of humus. If the color is fiat and insipid looking there is probably little organic matter in the soil. Soil that is completely sterile means that it contains no living organisms. It is lifeless. It is made sterile either by means of heat or by the application of chemicals. As wc need living bacteria in the soil, the only real use for sterilized soil is to stop the fungus disease of damping-off when seeds are sown. Plants will not grow in overbaked soil unless untreated soil has been mixed with it. Commercial soil mixed are frequently soilless. They consist of large amounts of humus, peal moss, and vermiculite or perlitc. These are'light in weight and reduce shipping costs. Usually they have been heat sterilized and probably contain some fertilizer and limestone. However, because of their fine state, they tend to remain wet too long after watering and are likely to compact so that insufficient air is admitted for the needs of tiny roots. Often.they can be improved by the addition of sand or coarse gravel. Plants should not remain long in these commercial mixes without the addition of fertilizers and a well-balanced liquid fertilizer is probably the best to use. Look upon most of these commercial mixes as starters and you won't go far wrong. But don't expect lo grow plants to maturity in them without full knowledge of their content. , The author will endeavor to answer any questions on the subject of outdoor gardening.

[nee Farranl] I By ANN SAUNDERS ALDERGROVE • Coffee may be the culprit! Recent studies of Southern California clean-living Seventh-day Adventists appear to confirm the reports showing association between breast- cancer and drinking coffee. The third world congress of the International commission for the prevention of alcoholism and drug dependency, held in Acapulco, heard a .report from Dr. Herald Habernicht of Andrews University in Berien Springs, Mighigan, relating to a study comparing 50,000 Seventh-day Adventists with a similar number of the general population living in Southern California, Many Adventists, he stated, do not drink coffee, making it possible to compare mortality, rates with those who drink coffee and those who do not. The comparison also Included meat-eaters and non-meat- eaters, because of fat in the diet being associated with breast cancer. The study found that non-vegetarians who don't drink coffee have rates not unlike vegetarian women who also don't drink coffee, and, as far as breast cancer is concerned, the Couple to reside, in Fort Langley ABBOTSFORD - Standards of bronze and yellow chrysanthemums decorated the Trinity Memorial United Church here for the early evening wedding on October 19, uniting in marriage.

A jersey head piece accented with pearls, held the elbow length bridal veil. Her bouquet was a cascade of daisies, carnations and wood roses in autumn colors, edged with brown leather-leaf. Rosemary Taylor of Mt. Lehman attended the bride. She wore a floral sheer over a floor length gown of peach shimmery silk, beautifully made by her mother. Her hairpiece and nosegay bouquet carried out the autumn color scheme. The groom wore a brown tuxedo as did the best man. David Dumont of Clearbrook. Sharing ushering duties were Richard Toews and Roger Far- rant, brothers of the principals. Reception was held at Aldergrove Legion hall. Bill Toews, brother of the groom was a delightful master of ceremonies. Blessings were well said by Dan Klassen and ken Letkeman proposed a charming toast to the bride. Maureen Davis was in charge of the guest book, and Darlene Reeve favored the wedding party with picture taking. Guests and messages came from California, Manitoba, Alberta and local and distant areas of B.C. The young couple will be residing near Fort Langley on their return from a wedding trip to Vancouver Island. FROM THE BACK PORCH Bill Clark As any dang fool knows, there are 365 days in a year, but for a writer there's a diffrunt calendar. It's a spcshul one, becus it ses that ONE THOUSAND WORDS A DAY has gotta cum frum the keys of a battered typewriter! So, once in a wile, a writer takes an evenin' off... he writes a diffrunt story! Something nice an easy an gentle fer folks to read. Here's one you can read when Christmas rolls around. When the Big Paper flogs the Empty Stocking Fund ... and fcrgit's it the day after Christmas! Here's a wistful story you can read after the syndicates and wire services have closed her down fer another Christmas, satisfied that another con-job has been wrapped up and typeset. Down the road a piece you will lind the S.P.C.A. They sorta struggle along on a shoestring an a prayer ... but a shoestring doesn't pay fer hungry little animals •- an prayin' has been in short supply lately. While most folks will be scttlin' down frum a turkey dinner, the little animals will be shivcrin' on a wet slab of concrete wich has jest been hosed down. I know. That's where 1 got The Littel Dog that snuggles at my feet now. She has given me a King's Ransom in love and affection and has been with us in many of these stories. It's all the folks at the S.P.C.A. can do with wot they have. While you tackle the Christmas pudding, sumbody will be there, lookln' after the littel animals. Alone. I ain't too shur about this churchifyin' stuff and my sub- scriptshun fer the Good Book runtl out a helluva long time ago, but the way 1 sees it, He didn't figger a quiet needle into Oblivion to be the answer to things wc shud handle ourselves. So write a cheque and send a littel prayer. And now I give you a true story: women who eat meat heavily have a mortality rate from breast cancer which is 85 percent above that of the general population. Habenicht added: "It looks like caffeine is a very strong factor in breast cancer, and this association has been reported in a number of journals: Cancer, The journal of Cancer Research, the journal of the American medical association and dip journal of clinical nutrition. Seventh-day Adventists's religious philosophy seems to make it easier for them to deal with' stress and pressures. Habenicht, continued: "There are nearly twice as many Seventh-day Adventists who are college graduates or have attended college than the general population, and education is associated with lower risk for certain diseases." The study showed that 49 percent who eat meat to some degree have three times the mortality risk as those who do not. Among Adventists the mortality from breast cancer was 72 percent that of the general population. Over a 10 year period, the Adventists had only 20 percent as much lung cancer as the general population, only five percent as much throat and larynx cancer, only 28 percent of the bladder cancer and only 30 percent of the deaths caused by bronchitis and emphysema, all of which are associated with cigarette Smoking. This was an especially good control study since everyone was breathing the same smog, and air pollution and living in the same environment. Because of their philosophy and the handling of stress and anxiety Seventh-day Adventists have a lower suicide raje. They also enjoy a long life expectancy. Men in the study group are living 6.5 years longer than the general population in their area and women an. extxra three years - or to age 77 for men and 80 for women. When 102-year-old Flora M. Snow, a member of the Adventist church, was asked the secret of her longevity she replied: "I just lived one day at a time, and they kept adding up.",' which reminds us of that text in Matthew 6:34: "Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself." THE ALDEROROVE STAR, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 7,1979 Colorful hyacinths a scented spring 7B . Hyacinths add not only beauty to the garden but a soft, sweet aroma, as well. Now, in autumn, is the time to plant this beautiful spring flowering bulb. In addition to the traditional blues, hyacinths bloom in bright red, soft pink, lavender, yellow and various shades of orange. Members of the lily family, hyacinths are dainty, yet dignified and stately. They arc 'among the easiest bulbs to grow and are suited to any garden, large or small. Hyacinths go well wilh other spring flowering bulbs such as species tulips, miniature daffodils and muscari, scillas and crocuses. Choose red, blue and purple hyacinths to contrast with clumps of yellow or cream colored daffodils. For a striking floral intcrplanling, group hyacinths with the low-growing species tulips lhal have large, brilliant blossoms. Sturdy hyacinths make neat borders along walkways and in front of shrubs and trees. White and blue hyacinths blend well with pink and red azaleas. Consider planting hyacinths beneath flowering crahupplc or cherry trees. Hyacinths can be in- (erplanlcd with spring annuals and perennials such as pansies, -violas and forget-me-nots. Select two or three colors for the best effect. The simpler the grouping, the more effective it will look. Hyacinths arc exceptionally easy to grow. Plant in the fall before the first frost in well- drained soil. Set the bulbs eight inches deep (four inches in climates with mild winters) und six inches apart. A two-inch layer of mulch will protect Ihe bulbs from heavy frost. Remove il when spring arrives.

Enter- This week's Newfie joke By MARK ROSE, MP Last week it happened again. Finance minister John Crosbic allowed the interest rates yet another leap to the highest level ever, presumably on the advice of Gerald Boucy. the governor of Canada's central bank. It was inevitable really. The policy Boucy has been following slavishly hasn't changed a bit despite Che change of govern* ment. So nothing has changed here except that Crosbie replaced Chretien and nothing is likely to change either, at least until Gerald Bouey retires some three months hence. Bin John Crosbic. a witty Newfoundlander with a lilt to his voice is not a very happy man these days. Nor is he a very funny man these days because rising interest rates will have disastrous consequences for many people. But had Crosbie refused to follow the advice of the governor of the Bank of Canada. Gerald Bouey would have resigned. Some might remember that former Bank of Canada Governor James Coyne resigned in a huff because of a similar dispute with a previous Tory administration. It was niosi unpleasant time for the Diefenbaker government and Joe Clark doesn't want a repeat of the Coyne affair if it can be avoided. The irony of the whole interest rate question is that the man wiio hurled the most abuse at Liberal Jean Chretien every time Chretien allowed an interest hike . was mm other than the man who today is vigorously defending the identical policy. None other than charming , John Crosbic himself. He doesn't like the heat he's getting from the opposition and he shows it. Why high interest rates? Before one gets very for into this dismal science of economics, il becomes clear that there arc almost as many economic theories as there arc economists. Wc must remember then lhat economics is based on hunches and lhal any course of action flowing from hunches is open to a good deal of skepticism. It's Boucy's hunch that Canada can save itself from rampant inflation and economic destruction only by following u policy of maintaining interest rates higher than that of the U.S.A In a milshcll Bouey claims that interest rates will at once attract foreign investment, curb borrowing and cause us to lower our expectation, thus strengthen our dollar and lower the inflation role, Do They Work? Now there arc many counter arguments one could marshal ngalnsl Honey's hunches but this is neither the time nor the place for it. The point is thai despite more than a year of his get tough policy inflation is still climbing, and further investment funds arc continuing to flow out of Canada ■ not into it. In the meantime, though, small business bankruptcies have increased nine percent compared to one year ago. Nearly a million young couples will be denlncd houses because they don'l earn enough to carry the mortgage payments. And finally Canada is forced into more foreign borrowing to finance our S7-billion balance of payment deficit. Whether we'll be better off following Boucy's policies "in ■ the long run" is academic because as someone said ■ "in the long run we'll all be dead". In the meantime, it's tough beans to small businesses needing loans, young couples needing mortgages and people of all ages needing jobs.

Strict room decor has given way to flowing living space, creating casy-to-livc-with beauty, casy-to-livc-in practicality. Instead of strict room boundaries dictated by decor, this room opts for an open feeling. The rooms arc defined only by exposed wood beams und arches, adding graceful definition to the floor plan. The key to this look of elegant simplicity is decorative unity — achieved in this open- plan living room and dining room by using the same exotic floor covering design throughout the entire area. Neutral walls and rich wood beams arc played against accents of modern chronic and glass. The exposed beams and opulent arches define the indi vidual living spaces. A modern fireplace creates a cozy gathering place on one wall ofthe living room. Across the floor, an open service and snack bar is an unexpected and interesting change in the room's contour. Striking modular furniture invites creative seating. Light is important to this living plan. The dining room is marked by a dramatic, arched window. Natural light plays throughout the room, seeking out corners, picking up the subtle shine of the floor's pattern. The pattern shown here is Taj Mahal, made iifGAF's new No- Wax Decorator floor tiles.

Economical shelving can be built-in virtually anywhere in your home, anil beautifully. hidden behind fashionable Riviera window blinds. Convert corner nook with blinds for storage Do you find that no matter how large your home is you are frequently faced with the problem of inadequate storage space? Here are some economical ideas to help you to deal with that problem. If your rooms have small openings, or nooks and crannies that are not really usable, you can just install sturdy, adjustable shelf supports on either side and slide shelves into place. Or, if you have a corner ot a room that can be used, you can build a "cabinet" using the wall as one side and a piece of plywood or pressboard for the other. Remember to firmly anchor the new side. A cross plank should be nailed to the top front and back for strength. Then go ahead with the adjustable shelving hardware, and add enough shelves to suit your needs: apply a coat of paint and there you have the necessary storage space. Of course, if this storage area is being built within the living quarters of your home, you have also created an eyesore. This is easily remedied with the use of sleek Riviera blinds by Levolor. These slatted aluminum blinds can be ordered to your, exact measurements and hung right on the front of the "cabinet." When you're using the storage area, the blind can be whisked up and out of the way, or it can be lowered in an instant to cover up the clutter. Easy care Riviera blinds are available in more than ISO designer colors, and can even be ordered with two br more colors on one blind to complement your present decor. The blind can be mounted on the face ofthe "cabinet," installed between the side walls or ceiling-mounted, whichever is most suitable. For a more finished look, side channels, which enclose the ends of the slats, may be ordered in coordinating colors: and. you can specify that the lift cord be attached to the bottom rail, so it loops up and out ofthe way when the blind is raised. The location of the Magic Wand, or plastic tiller, can be specified as well, so it too is convenient to use. If you use bolts, screws, or finishing nails in the construction of the "cabinet" you can dismantle it and take it with you if you move, because you'll probably run into similar storage problems anywhere. Quality constructed. American-made Riviera blinds by Levolor are an attractive and economical answer to many decorating problems.

THE ALDEROROVE 8TAR, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER?, 1979 Ordinary family room becomes exotic Moroccan hideaway Whether you travel by bout; plane or armchair, you can bring the pleasures of globe-trotting back wilh you by re-creating a favorite part ofthe world in your own home. An excellent example of such a re-creation is a stock suburban family room (dark paneled walls, inexpensive shag carpel) which was transformed into a bedazzling Moroccan hideaway. MaglcaUrnnsformation Once a dark und somber chamber with very little to delight the eye, the family room, as redone, fairly throbs with the vivid colors, shapes and textures of exotic North Africa. No structural changes were called for in the redecoration. The whole new look is a cover- up—like the folding doors in a chevron pattern that cover up sliding glass doors to the patio. The new folding doors provide almost as much privacy as drapes but they filter the light, rather than block it completely, for soft, natural illumination. Setting the tone for the typically Moroccan color scheme is the striped fabric in teal blue, orange and eggplant with which the paneled walls were covered. Fabric was chosen for texture as well as color, suggesting as it docs the tents that shelter many peoples living below the southern rim of the Mediterranean. Triangular flap-like splashes of teal blue on each side ofthe door further Ihe tent illusion. The vivid color scheme dictated the use of a neutral-toned floor covering. The choice was an off-white Armstrong no-wax floor in a subtle design named "Moorish Court" which complements the room's theme. The TEAL BLUE, ORANGE AND EGGPLANT make up Die dramatic color scheme In thb "Monirran liidraway" family romn. The neutral tones of Armstrong's "Moori.1i Court" pattern no- wax floor provide a foil fur Ihe vivid color.. Chaise long urn are from Founders. floor has a built-in shine and is' easy to clean. A ceiling fan is at once an energy saver and a romantic link to faraway places. It could have come straight from the set of Bogart's Casablanca. The ceiling itself is the acous tical type from Armstrong, to help tone down noise when activities in the family room are in full swing. The end tabic, lattice work and obelisks holding the brass topiaries in the corner of Ihe room were all covered with egg plant color paint: The rich orange fabric covering the matching sofas has a deep texture that picks up the chevron design of the lattice-work screens. Accessories become a key element in a room design as bold as this one. They can be souvenirs picked up in travel, such as the antique shoeshine kit at the end of one of Ihe sofas. Although they're of indeterminate origin, the brass topiaries in the comer have an exotic air that seems made for the room. Victorian shade pulls be came brass door handles. Other brass pieces—lamps, a serving tray, cigarette case, even a plant pot—glitter from vantage points all over the room. " Like the other decorative elements, the brass is a bold and daring touch. But that boldness works here because everything pulls together to make a positive decorating statement.- This is Morocco," this room says. The family that lives in this room can get miles away from the workaday world—without ever leaving home. How to clean and care for acrylic accessories By BARBARA BRASS Clear up any doubts you may have had about furnishing your home with acrylic accessories. The excellent transparency and beauty of these'items will last forever with proper care and maintenance. Mr. Joseph S. Layman. Chairman of the Board of .Car- mel Plastics and a member of The Plastics Pioneer Association of America, believes that ■ "Acrylic furnishings can retain their attractive appearance for a very long lime if they are cleaned and cared for properly. "This care should include precautions against scratching or contact with objects of high temperature that might mar the surface." Acrylic surfaces should be washed with a mild soap or detergent and plenty of lukewarm water. Use a clean, soft cloth, applying only light pressure. Window cleaning sprays, kitchen scouring compounds or solvents such as gasoline, benzene, etc., should never be used. Dust with a soft, damp cloth to avoid surface scratches. Acrylics can be further maintained by occasional waxing wilh a good auto paste wax. This will remove fine scratches while setting an additional layer of gloss to the surface. Several anti-static cleaners for plastics arc available which will reduce static electricity and dust attraction. Wiping wilh a soft damp cloth is all that is necessary to keep acrylic surfaces dust free between application of these cleaners. Acrylics are made not to be seen but seen through. Keep all your plastic furniture and accessories clean and clear with regular care and protection.

For best performance, select the right tools for your project While there are many decisions facing the home handy- person before tackling a project, probably the most important step of all, according to the Hand Tools Institute (HTI), is selecting the right tool for the job. HTI points out that many do-it-yourselfers not only are unaware of the numerous jobs that can be performed by struck or hammered tools, but they are oblivious to Ihe dangers of using the wrong tool for the job. This same unawareness also deprives the user ofthe satisfaction of doing a better, easier job with the correct tool. Struck or hammered tools, 'including chisels, punches, star drills, and wedges, can perform a variety of chores such as cutting brick, chiseling wood, chipping mortar, punching holes, splitting wood, drilling masonry holes or shearing rivets and bolts. However, each struck tool performs a specific job and must be used for that task on- Hammer hazards! One of Ihe most familiar hand tools in your household can also be one of the most hazardous. We're talking about the nail hammer which, when in top shape, can be a joy to own and to use, but when in disrepair, can be a real danger to its user or anyone standing nearby. The Hand Tools Institute (HTI) warns lhat one of the most common hazards in the use of striking tools is the chipping of ii hammer face which could cause a serious eye injury. For this important reason, the Institute urges a close check of your present hammers to make sure they are in top condition and equal to the jobs they are required to perform. HTI recommends that you closely inspect Ihe hammer's face for signs of chipping or spalling. If the tool shows any evidence of chips, dents, cracks or excessive wear, discard the hammer immediately. ly.To help the beginner in assembling a starter set of struck tools, HTI offers these suggestions for selection and safer use.: 1. A set of two cold chisels (•_" and «">-Cold chisels are used for cutting, shaping and removing metal softer than the cutting edge itself, such as cast iron, wrought iron, steel, bronze, copper, elc. Never use on stone or concrete. Size is important: Cutting edge should be twice the diameter of bolt being cut. For a more advanced sei acquire W and 1" sizes. 2. Piincli Set (_.»—Punches are used to mark and punch holes in metal and other material softer than the punch end. Also for driving and removing pins, rivets and aligning holes in different sections of materials. Recommend center, prick and solid punch for starter and later advancing to backing out. pin. and drift punches, and a rivet buster. 3. Slur Drill Set <2>—Used for drilling holes in masonry (stone, concrete, brick, etc.l. For a start recommend at least two sizes—_" and I". Should be struck with a hand drilling hammer or small sledge and rotated after each blow. Never strike wilh a . common nail hammer. 4. All-Steel Wood chisels (2)—Used for rough heavy- duty wood cutting—as opposed to lighter work of regular woodworker's chisels. Not to be used on metal. Recommend at least two sizes—14"and l"forabasic set and filling in later with additional sizes. 5. Wedge 15 pound)—Used for splitting logs, firewood, kindling, staves, etc. Must be struck with sledge or wood- chipper's maul with a larger striking face than Ihe wedge. Never use an axe as a substitute for a wedge. 6. Nail Sen—Used to countersink nails so that nail hole can then be filled with putty, plastic wood or other filling material resulting in a smooth surface. Recommend a 2/32" nail set for a start, later adding 1/32" and Mi" sizes. The Institute stresses thai, in addition to proper selection and safer usage, the constant safety rule is that safely goggles should be worn whenever struck tools are used. Keep struck tools in top condition. The cutting edge for tools such as chisels and star drills should be kept sharp (for both safety and performance) by the use of an oil stone or file.

Certified insulation assures performance Homeowners can save up to 30% on the energy used foi. cooling and heating their homes by having from 6 to 12 inches of fiber glass ball insulation on the attic floor, according to the National Bureau of Standards and other energy experts. "For the best buy, though, be sure to read product labels and purchase insulation according to 'R' value. R' is the product's resistance to heat transfer rating," say the experts at the CettainTeed Home Institute. Simply translated, The higher the R-valuc, the more energy you'll save. Too, R-values are additive. For example, six-inch-thick batts of fiber glass insulation are usually rated at R-19. Twelve inches of the same material give an R-38 value. You'll find R-values on each package of fiber glass insulation to make it easier than ever to compare different products and prices. Unlike blown-in products it'll never settle (which reduces its insulating efficiency). Too, when you in- stall fiber glass insulation balls yourself, you know exactly what you're getting . . .nol always the case when you have blown-in products put in your attic. Complete diagrammed do-it-yourself installation tips are also included on each package. Insulating the attic yourself usually takes an afternoon's time for the average- sized home. In most cases, all you do is lay balls of insulation between the joists on the attic floor, then just relax and watch your dollar- savings mount as energy consumption for heating and cooling drops. The cost to insulate the attic yourself wilh 6- inch-thick (R-19) fiber glass insulation varies depending on where you live. For the average 1400-square-foot house, insulation costs about $275.00. The insulation pays for itself in about 3 years (even sooner if you live in a very cold or hot climate and if the energy costs increase). The annual savings continue for. Ihe life of the home, too. As the nation's energy wardens have pointed out, time's running out . .. and so's our energy. So, don't delay . . . insulate your attic today. With the changing of the seasons we're reminded of all the responsibilities that go into canng for a home. One seasonal chore that should have high priority is caring for aluminum storm windows and screens. Poorly constructed windows can nullify much of a home's insulation, with resulting heaf loss as high as 40 percent. Top savers According lo the U.S. Government Committee on Fuel Conservation, storm windows are the biggest heat- and money-savers; they return about 13 per cent or more savings on monthly fuel bills. Here's how to care for your storm windows and screens so you can ensure that they will save money for you this winter: Before setting the windows and screens in place for the season, remove, clean, and carefully check theni for repairs. Tub works, too Outdoors is the most ideal place to wash your windows and screens, but the bathtub will also give you enough room to do a good job. Begin by brushing the screens and aluminum frames to remove the dust and caked-pn dirt. If you notice troublesome rust spots, rub them gently wilh a wet rag so as not to scratch the Tramps. Pitted surfaces can be cleaned with naval jelly; it's brushed on, then wiped off with a clean rag. Check-uptime To clean away greasy grime and soot, scrub surfaces with a good, stiff- bristled brush and a solution of Janitor In A Drum* industrial-strength cleaner and hot water. Be sure to rinse them well with clear water or, if possible, hose down. Stand the screens to allow the excess water to drain off and air-dry completely. Once the screens have dried, make a close inspection for small tears or the beginnings of major holes. Clear nail polish will work miracles on tiny holes; your local hardware store will carry any necessary, materials needed lo' patch larger rips or tears. Wash storm windows with Glass'Plus* glass, appliance . and' cabinet cleaner and dry immediately wilh a chamois cloth. Cloudy days are especially good for washing windows; direct sunlight dries windows so quickly that they give a streaked appearance. Clean tracks Before replacing windows and screens, use a vacuum cleaner to remove dust and dirt from window tracks: then, wash them with a narrow brush. It also may be necessary to wax the tracks for maneuverability.' HEATING SYSTEMS AND INSULATION TT This valuable kit can save yeu energy, expense and effort. If yeu get it before yeu build.

Convert porch to family room to add space, lower energy bills A BRICK FLOOR YOU STAPLE DOWN? Precisely. This remarkablejiew vinyl floor is fastened down at the sides ofthe room with heavy-duty staples from a staple gun. Kick 'adhesive habit9: use a staple- down vinyl floor!

He installed heavy insulating glass to trap the sun's rays; added a dark floor lo absorb those rays, and Levolor blinds to control the amount of sun light admitted. He insulated the perimeter of Ihe slab and (he ceiling to retain Ihe captured heat; installed an electric heat pump lo provide fan-blown warm air on chilly, cloudy days. This is something you might do. loo: by converting a porch into a family room, not only gain living/dining space but also cut energy bills and maybe even earn a'lax credit on your solar investment. Keep furnishings simple, designer Barbara Kcllncr advises. for easy maintenance. Choose wait paneling with a tough finish lhat needs only occasional wiping; sliding doors with grids quickly removable for window cleaning; a self- venting range that removes moisture and odors; plastic laminate counters, ceramic flooring, vinyl wallcovering thai you can sponge; aluminum mini-slat blinds with virtually invisible cords lhat don't attract dust; rattan furniture that has the warmth of wood but that sunlight doesn't affect. I A lot of people—certainly all true-blue, dyed-in-the- wool, hard-core do-it- yourselfers—know how to install vinyl flooring. You slather adhesive all over the surface you're going to cover, then you lay the new vinyl floor down over top. Right? Well, that's one way to do il. But now there's a far easier way to install vinyl flooring: staple it. If you think you didn't read that last sentence right, you did. Because now there's a remarkable new type of cushioned vinyl floor that you simply staple down. And you only have to staple it at (he sides of the room. (If you're installing this new vinyl floor over concrete, you apply a narrow band of cement al the room edges, instead of stapling. In either case, you no longer need to be bothered with spreading adhesive.) This new vinyl floor is made differently from all previous vinyl floors, so it performs differently. And it has other advantages, too, besides the unique way it's installed. It's an unusually flexible floor, so much so you can fold it like a blanket and tuck it in the back seat of your car to take home from the store. This same flexibility also makes it easier for the amateur to work with—to maneuver, trim and fit. It's not at ail stiff or "boardy." And it's elastic. If the floor is slightly undercut, it can be stretched. It's the first vinyl floor that forgives a do-it- yourselfer's mistakes—up to a point. Most remarkable of all, this floor has a built-in "memory" (in the technical sense). When the floor is rolled face-side out at the factory for shipment, the outer circumference of the roll is stretched. After installation in your home, Ihe floor gently contracts as it seeks to return lo its original dimensions before it was rolled up. This causes any slack or wrinkles you might have left in the material during the installation to be taken up gradually by the floor's memory action. The memory also protects the floor from expansion and contraction of the subfloor caused by seasonal changes in humidity. Other vinyl floors, under the same conditions, might crack or buckle or separate at the seams. This new one follows the movements ofthe subfloor lo stay tight and smooth season after season. If you do fold the floor to take home, be sure to re-roll it face-side out and let it stay that way overnight before starting the installation. This restores the floor's memory. It is available in continuous rolls in 6 and 12-foot widths, and the 12-foot width will cover most rooms without a seam. To install, unroll the floor in the room and trim away any excess material, using a metal straight edge to guide your knife blade. Then, simply take a staple gun and staple the floor at 3-inch intervals along Ihe walls. You can hide the staples with quarter-round or other decorative molding. If you're installing the floor over concrete, the proper cement in an applicator bottle is available at the dealer's. You can install this vinyl floor over almost any kind of surface anywhere in the house, from basement to attic. It can be installed over floors in poor condition- floors that otherwise would require sanding and patching or leveling. If there s major damage, you will have to repair that first. The floor has a tough wear layer of clear vinyl that resists stains and is easy to clean.

Create useful storage space on your walls Has there ever been a house with "enough" storage space? For most families, with their growing collections of stereo component systems, game boards, house plants, and tennis racquets, the answer is "no"! Designers at Formica Corporation are urging, homeowners and apartment dwellers to look to their underemployed wall areas as one solution to the storage dilemma. They suggest that instead of seascapes and posters, walls can be decorated with spacious wall/storage systems that integrate functional storage with a practical brand of aesthetics, ideally suited to today's active and casual lifestyle. The wall/storage units combine the hide-away storage of modular cabinet sections wilh shelves that double for function or display. And, it is only imagination that restricts the use of this practical new way to gain space and decor in one package. One of the most practical steps for the family faced with space shortages, the wall/storage unit can provide needed storage for everyone—exhibit space for mom's green thumb collection and stow-away area for game room paraphernalia. Whether storage is required in bedroom, basement, or'family room, transforming the wasteland of walls into storage is the modern way to go. For the handyman: A sure-fire remodeling project, wall systems put no king-size dent in the family budget, especially for the do-it- yourselfer with a way with tools. The grid-like shapes ofthe contemporary-styled systems make them one of the easier cabinetry projects and one of the most worthwhile. Complete construction plans for a wall system are available from Formica Corporation. The wall/storage unit is completely clad with its durable decorative laminates and can be built with inexpensive particleboard, gaining its good looks from . the more than 100 FORMICA* laminate designs available. Working with decorative laminate is easy and provides the do-it-yourself remodeler one more way of bringing new value and storage space to his home.

From end of counter, sink was moved to make room for sit-down makeup area with good lighting, big mirror. Spacious cabinets replace storage lost when a linen closet was removed where toilet is now. Larger tub was installed with dropped ceiling for a built-in look. Colors, patterns were selected for airiness. Beat bathroom blahs by room remodeling Your bathroom has the blahs? It's dull, ordinary; functional, but unattractive? The trend is to make the bath more of a relaxing room: to enlarge it—compartmentalizing its facilities, brightening its colors, sophisticating its look. Space crucial There are lots of little ways to improve a bathroom. You can hang a new shower curtain, change the towels, plant greens, put in brighter bulbs. But it will be the same room with the same inconveniences unless you remodel to serve the needs ofthe people who use it. One ofthe first steps in remodeling is to analyze those needs. How many people frequent the bathroom? Would twin sinks make the morning rush hour less chaotic? Would you like linen storage in the bathroom? What about laundry equipment? Is the wiring adequate for (he electric shaver and toothbrushes, the hair dryer, the facial sauna, the curling comb? Professional advice Based on your needs, your budget and his own precise measurements, the professional rcmodclcr will draw you a plan. He will organize storage, help you select cabinets and fixtures, and install them for you—or. if you prefer, counsel on do-it- yourself installation. Where do you lind a professional? Consult the "Kitchen Cabinets & Equipment" listing in your telephone book. According to the American Institute of Kitchen Dealers, 80 per cent of its member firms design, supply and install bathrooms as well as kitchens, since both require familiarity with the basics of space use and storage. In helping you plan storage, the specialist will probably point out that while add-on cabinets are less expensive, built-ins generally are more satisfactory because ofthe greater flexibility they offer in sizes, finishes and interior fittings. In helping you improve lighting, the specialist will point out that both area and over-all illumination are needed, and guide you in achieving the best combination. In helping you select fixtures (should you have a 40-inch soaking tub, 60-inch tub/shower or a 48-inch shower unit, for example, to make the most appropriate use of space?) the specialist will point out thai it pays to buy the best. Quality fixtures that last longer and afford maximum convenience in the long run cost least. Quality pays In helping you budget, the specialist can plan your remodeling in stages: build in the ability to install a whirlpool bath, perhaps, at a later date, or to replace utilitarian with more expensive, elaborate fittings. Remodeling a bathroom used to be easier. But even ten years ago, the results were far less rewarding. Then you simply replaced the old tub. bowl and toilet, and perhaps painted the walls. Now, with so many more options of design, color, layout and fixluring, it's advantageous to have u professional leading the way not to mere change but lo real improvement.

Home owners arc buying wilh discretion, but arc willing to spend $6,000 or more for a new kitchen. According to the latest estimates, a total of 4.5 million kitchens will be renovated this year alone. Whether the renovation is to be done by a professional kitchen rcmodclcr or the do-it- yourselfer, Ihe big challenge is to analyze the real needs and then provide a complementary environment. Design suggestions from the remodeling contractor arc often a vital factor in the final selection. The single most important challenge in Ihe well designed kitchen is color selection. An exotic scheme can be worked up around the color of the month to produce a colorful kitchen. Although these kitchens may photograph well when all the elements are introduced—pots, pans, various colored fruits and vegetables and, most importantly, people wearing multi-colored clothing—the scene becomes a confusing visual assault. I always use neutral colors when designing. Aside from being background colors, they inject much-needed tranquility in today's fast paced lifestyles. A neutral background surrounds you. II is quieting, comforting, and accepting. Color in the environment emits emotion, and the world is chaotic enough, particularly in urban areas, where noise, concrete, flashing lights, crowded subways and freeways are a fact of life. Predictions from manufacturers of cabinetry, laminates and Photnt Darwin K. Davidson NEUTRAL KITCHENS can lie sleek and rlrganl yet warm and inviting maintains Barbara Ross, shown above. To achieve lhal look in Ihls recently remodeled kitchen, the designer chose Ruse- line cabinets in Brushed Chrome, a Formica* brand iterorutlve laminate. Coiinlerto|__ are done In a matching Pumice color laminate. appliances all indicate that neutral kitchens are becoming very popular. Neutrals expand space It should be pointed out that a neutral scheme, white or almond especially, expands space. Cabinets and window frames painted in dark or contrasting colors slop the eye, breaking up Ihe space to appear smaller. Al a time when houses are gelling smaller and space is at a premium, visual expansion is a main consideration. . Other current industry trends point to a swing in color to subdued pastels and gray tones. White and yellow, long con- . sidcred the staples of kilchen design, are now rivaled by the neutrals—almond, terra cotta, and the full spectrum of browns and beiges. Wood finishes have gone from the deep, dark mediterranean of fifteen years ago to natural finishes from light to medium honey tones. Laminate manufacturers report a dramatic shift to dimensional effects. Formica Corporation, for example, is now offering woven grass, pencil cane and basket weave, all wilh textured surfaces. Many possibilities The neutral kitchen docs not have to be jusl contemporary or without color. A neutral kitchen can be traditional in styling, complete wilh wallpaper and some clement of color. Color, however, should be used With discrimination. Even accents should be chosen with consideration for their emotional effects. Touches of color Remember, additional colors come from a variety of elements thai go inlo a kilchen, everything from pots and pans lo place mats and dish towels. Color tips to keep in mind: an accent of red, particularly in eating areas, is terrific because it is a warm color and stimulates the appetite. White suggests cleanliness, important in food preparation areas. With while, there is unlimited opportunity to provide accent colors in kitchen towels, napkins and place mats. All can be changed as often as desired to bring in new colors. It's time to rcprogram your thinking about kitchens. The kitchen, as well as the rest ofthe home, is not Ihe event. What occurs there, the day-to-day activities of the family, is the main event. Prior to doing any designs. I always ask my clients lo fill oul a simple questionnaire that reveals exactly how the kitchen is to be used. The answers may prove helpful in remodeling Ihe kitchen just lire way you and your family always dreamed. • Do you like the idea of an eating area in the kitchen? • Do you enjoy cooking for an appreciative family and friends, or is meal preparation a chore lo be handled speedily with as little effort as possible? • Do you enjoy baking and doing a lot of it? • Would you ralher stand or sit when cleaning vegetables ond preparing food at the sink? • How many portable appliances do you use frequently lhat require accessible storage space? • Do you like wood cabinets or the smooth clean look of casy- lo-muintain laminate cabinets? • Do you enjoy having people near enough for conversation while you arc working in Ihe kitchen? • Is it important lo you to have desk space in the .kitchen for cookbooks, telephone books and housekeeping papers within easy teach? • What are Ihe colors in adjacent rooms?

BENDER MUSIC 20204 Fraser Hwy., Langley 5304632 10 THE ALDEROROVE STAR, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 7,1879 Pros reveal tips on housecleaning! OVERCOME with full hou.ecleuning? Learn the easy way from ihe pros! People who make a living cleaning homes are the real experts on doing the most housework in the least amount of time. They know the products that work efficiently and how to save steps. To help your fall cleaning, several professional house cleaners offered their advice. Here are their suggestions. Aerosols mukc your tough jobs easier To avoid drips and streaks when washing a wall or vinyl wallcovering, always start at the bottom and work your way up. The hardest spots to remove from walls—grease, crayon, or food spatters- can be made to disappear with an aerosol spray spot remover. if you don't own a self- cleaning oven, your best bet is to clean the oven after each use. The longer grease and drippings are allowed to bake in, the harder they are to remove. An oven cleaner aerosol spray is an easy way to tackle this unpleasant chore. While the spray works for you, you can use your time to do something more interesting. Professionals also suggest thai you pamper your wooden floors. Use a spray wax to keep them from drying out and to make them resistant to scuffs and stains. For heavy duty waxing, consider renting a waxing and buffing machine. Establish work zones . Professionals advise selling up a weekly housekeeping schedule to help you manage your cleaning smoothly and efficiently. Divide your home into work zones. The kitchen can be cleaned one day. the bathrooms the next und the living room another day. Organize your heavy cleaning by types. For example, do all your woodwork cleaning at the same time. Or set aside a day only for carpet cleaning. By concentrating your cleaning efforts you save time and steps. - Ounce of prevention You can save yourself grief by cleaning defensively. For example, use a stain- resistant or waterproof aerosol spray on upholstered furniture and on often-used portions of carpeting. When spills occur, the water-resistant surfaces will make it simple for you to "blot" up and treat stains swiftly. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of expensive cleaning bills!

According to the Johns- Man ville Insulation Center, a fully insulated home will provide comfort for family members all year long. Chilling drafts can be reduced during the winter while tiring heat remains outdoors on the hottest summer days. It _ quirt Another benefit of fiber glass insulation, reports the Insulation Center, is sound absorption. A fully insulated home will be quieter. In addition, heating and cooling equipment won't have to work as hard to maintain desired temperatures in homes that are adequately insulated. Since the attic is usually the biggest energy waster in the home, that's where insulation should first be added. Although there might be some attic insulation already present, chances are it doesn't meet today's higher thermal standards. Most authorities recommend R-30 attic insulation, says Ihe Insulation Center. The higher the insulation's "R" value, the greater its resistance to heat flow. Adding un If there is some insulation in the attic, but less than recommended standards, use a special "add-on" insulation such as Johns-Manville's Relnsul or unfaced R-19 insulation. Simply roll it out on top of existing attic insulation. Other important places to insulate in addition to the attic are floors over unhealed crawl spaces and exterior walls. For walls in an existing COMPRESSION PACKAGED R-30 fiber glass attic insulation from Johns-Munvilli' is designed to meet increasing energy demands. Because of CBcalaling fuel costs and limited supplies, R-30 lin. generally replaced R-19 aa the recommended minimum standard for attic insulation. house, a professional with special equipment will usually be required to add insulation into Ihe wall cavities. Open walls In a new house under construction, where the insides ofthe walls are still open, the homeowner or contractor can install the insulation by stapling the flanges ofthe in sulation batt or roll to the exposed studs. And don't forget to insulate the home's water heater, where precious fuel escapes all year long: A simple do-it- yourself Water Heater Insulation Kit from Johns- Manville is especially designed for this purpose.

How to add charm and character to your home Now you can add charm arid character to your family room, living room, recreation room or bedroom by. installing a zero clearance pre-fabricated metal fireplace and finishing it with attractive facing brick or stone. This is a project any do-it- yourselfer can accomplish in a couple of weekends with'a few common household tools, a prefabricated metal Firebox, wood framing and Z-Brick brand facing brick. Dress up your fireplace Z-Brick is lightweight and fireproof, so it allows you to dress up a fireplace and cover the health and/or sidcwalls. By following the easy four- step installation method, you can create a brick fireplace without the weight, mess or expense of traditional masonry. Corners simple Corners are a snap with Z- Brick! They can be done a number of ways. Either "butt" them together, overlap them and rasp off excess... or miter them and fill in with a mixture of sealer and brick dust. Another handy way to do corners is to frame your Z-Brick corner in battens. Bricks can also be lapered along their length for use in arches. Tile cutter saves work Z-Brick can be easily cut wilh a hacksaw. However, a tile cutter is a real labor saver and will allow you to make small intricate cuts in the bricks. Not only will your pre-fabricated fireplace look like a warm addition to your home, but many of today's prefabricated V'Oll CAN ADD AN EFFICIENT AND ATTRACTIVE liraplace lo almost any room In your home with a pre-fabricated metal firebox, wood framing and Z-Bri. k brand facing brick, A fireplace such aa this is 2'/a to 4 limes more efficient than ordinary masonry, fireplaces. Z-Brick facing brick is fireproof and weatherproof, and adds the finishing touch in four easy steps. fireplaces feature circulation methods which allow the heal, radiated by the fireplace, lo pass through ducts, re-distributing the heat into the room—instead of traveling up Ihe chimney. Thus, this project will also serve as an energy-saver. Framing for Ihe fireplace and hearth may be constructed entirely from 2 by 4's and 2 by 2's. The firebox is then set in place, framed and the plywood or particle board walls installed. Framing for the flue must be finished before the particle boardwalk are erected. Once the framing is completed, the firebox, flue and chimney assemblies in place (directions for flue and chimney arc included in Ihe manufacturer's installation instructions), you are ready to apply Z-Brick or Ficldstone. An almost endless variety of moods and decorating styles can be achieved with the design flexibility of Z-Brick Brand Facing Brick. ' Because Z-Brick is applied one brick at a time—not in oversized paneled sheets—herringbone, basketweave, stack bond patterns and other decorating options can be created by today's do-it-yourselfer. • Many effects possible ' A Z-Brick application can be enhanced with rustic beams to create an old-fashioned effect. Or,<usc a smooth, light oak and combine it with a softer, more earth-toned Z-Brick for a contemporary decor. Dark stained beams will give that old-world, or English lb- dor, look. And, you can enhance your fireplace project with a wet bar, wine cellar, or bookcase units on either side. Multitude or variations There are nine different brick styles and three colors of adhesive mortar—while, natural and black, which gives a virtually unlimited number of design possibilities. For the warm antique turn-of- the-century look, red or used style bricks can be combined with asmall quantity of Z-Brick against a black or natural mortar.

Five steps to selecting the best kitchen cabinets for your needs When it comes to selecting a kilchen cabinet, you're probably so bombarded with ideas, pictures and suggestions, it's hard to make up your mind. And, worse than that, you may even second-guess your- selfafterward. To try to help you select wisely, Chris Dunn, Consumer Advisor of Excel Wood Products, one of America's largest manufacturers of kitchen cabinets, offers the following suggestions to help you eliminate those kitchens you really don't want. I. Determine for yourself whether you wanta light or dark finish kitchen. Each has its advantages. - " Light cabinets tend to make small rooms larger. Dark, natu ral oak cabinets, such as Exccl's new Abbott.Hall, add a warm, homey feeling. It's mostly a matter of personal tasle. 2. Decide what style you want to live with for Ihe next 10 years or so. A traditional? Contemporary? Don't gel yourself caught in fads you'll later regret (remember avocado?). 3. Within the style and general category of finish, try to start narrowing them down to a . more specific finish, one that goes wilh your other kitchen decorating ideas (and the finish of your appliances). This will help eliminate not only the other finishes, but certain specific styles as well. 4. Within Ihe category of style, try to pin-point the few you most think you love the most. 5. Look at the built-in and optional features and functions. Select cabinets whose drawers move on metal or all-plastic suspension systems that support the drawers on both sides. Make sure that shelves are adjustable. Are ihe door hinges self-closing? Is the finish easy to clean (especially if you have children of any age)? Are there options such as carousels or other systems that eliminate dead areas and maximize storage space? Is the cabinet reasonably priced; in other words, does it combine the quality you want with what your pocketbook can handle? According to Exccl's Chris Dunn, when you've resolved these five points, you've probably selected your kitchen!

Citing the "Cusa Cassini" pattern from his new Siena collection for Galaxy Carpet Mills. Cassini explains that natural colors with emphasis on texture produce amazingly versatile carpets. " I designed Casu Cassini us a berber style to blend beautifully with oriental decor, form a har-, monious background for chronic and glass pieces in contemporary settings, and create the 'natural' look when com' bincd with woven cotton!!, macrame. earthen pots and plants." he says.

Hints for lighter laundry workload Thirty per cent of every homemaker's total housekeeping time is spent on laundry. Even with the most modern washing machines and dryers, and the huge variety of detergents available, the stream of dirty laundry is endless: families are wearing more types of clothing and washing more often. If your major concern is conserving time, here are some tips that can help you shorten your laundry routine: • When taking clean clothes oul of storage, save on ironing by tumbling them in a dryer, without heat, to remove wrinkles. • Closets do become dusty. To avoid extra clothes washings because of settling dust, keep garments under cover: pull an old pillow case or a man's shirt over each item for protection. You can also use garment bags or plastic bags from the dry- cleaners. • Get the whole family in the habit of using the washing machine as the hamper for white, clothes, and a bathroom hamper for colored clothes. When the washer is full, you can run it without having to waste time sorting. If your washing machine is not conveniently located, try using two bathroom hampers to help save sorting time. • Don't over-dry your laundry: il causes wrinkles. If you're running the dryer as you leave the house, set Ihe timer so thai garments don't dry completely: then, finish Ihe cycle when you get home. This way you can fold items while they're still warm from the dryer, and smooth wrink les out by hand to avoid ironing. Take advantage of clear, warm days and hang your wet laundry outdoors lo be air-dried. Steven and Sharon Kcss took lhat route after their search fur the "right" house proved futile. Eventually, Ihcy found the al- > most-right house in Roslyn. Long Island, with the potential for being made perfect. When Ihcir preliminary remodeling plans were complete, the Kcss's consulted architect Philip Smcrling. who handled Ihe design and decor. "Make the house look and feel more spacious." Kcss told him. "The floor plan is okay, but we feel closed in." To create larger but fewer rooms, Smcrling moved bedroom walls outward. The entrance to the bedroom area was moved up the hall to add a bath to the master bedroom suite, Smcrling also removed the wall between the kilchen and the living room, installed a beam in its place for support, and created a free-standing fireplace open to the living room and dining room. He enlarged the countcrtop in the kitchen to act as an eating counter. The architect achieved dramatic results by removing a scries of windows along the living room wall and a small gliding door linking the kitchen with a deck at the rear of the house. In their place, Smcrling specified two 12 foot-wide, Andersen wood gliding doors, flanked at each end by matching side lights. This opened the entire 36 foot wall from floor to ceiling to a view of the woods at the rear ofthe property. The gliding door nearest the kitchen opens onto the existing deck. With the kitchen wall removed, the living room —formerly closed in by the small windows —merged with the open kitchen to add about one third to ils apparent length. Its width is visually expanded outward by the wall of gliding doors. Safety insulating glass, standard in the Andersen gliding doors, actually reduces heat loss in the wide expanse of glass to less than what it was prior to remodeling.

Through the use of Andersen windows and gliding doors, we were able to accomplish this without losing any of the comfort or wasting fuel for healing or air conditioning." "Now we have the kind of house we want," adds Kcss. "When the extension to the deck is completed, it will double the feeling of spaciousness in the living room. "The kitchen, with access through the large gliding door to the existing deck, already seems twice as large." Entertaining takes on a new dimension for the Kess's, too. Instead of grouping in the closed-in living room and having to walk through the kitchen to get oul on the deck, guests can circulate freely in the newly opened kitchen/living room area and step out onto the deck without leaving the party. "We've only been in the house for a year." said Mrs. Kcss. "I never dreamed that so much could be done In such a short time."

Household repairs easy with proper tools Even in this day of instant conveniences, too many people don't realize how easy it is to do their own household repairs. All it lakes is the proper tool, some basic knowledge of the job in question and a little time. In-order tochoosc (he proper hand tool, you should determine your needs first. If it's a simple maintenance job. there arc several kits available in most hardware stores. If the work is more detailed, then you may want to buy each tool separately. Keep tools in a convenient place and store them in a handy tool box. The new ones arc ' made of lightweight plastic and have compartments for large and small items. Use cornet tools Always use the tool recommended for the project. Improper use will not accomplish the job and could ruin the tool. Here are some basic tools that are "musts" for any home:- • Claw Hammer and Nail Set —not only to drive nails but to provide leverage when pulling nails from any surface. The nail set is used to hammer a nail so lhat the nail head will not show. • Handsaw—for cutting across the grain of the wood. • Hacksaw—this tool has more than one use. It was designed to cut through metal, but you may use it to saw plastic. There arc several types of blades. The coarse blade is used for heavy and deep cutting. For fine cutting and thin material, use the finer blade. When installing a new blade make sure that the saw frame points away from the handle. • Coping Saw—for cutting only thin wood, such as veneer. • Screwdrivers—these arc designed for two functions only —lo insert and remove screws. Good fit important Make sure that the blade of the screwdriver fits in the screw slot properly and always hold the screwdriver perpendicular lo the head. Screwdrivers arc designed for different types of screws. • Pliers—Slip-joint (or adjustable) pliers are'designed for gripping and tightening nuts and bolts when a wrench is not practical. They're also used, for bending wire. • Finishing Sander—[aha called orbital sander) a power tool designed for light sanding jobs. It gives a fine finish to wood and veneers. Traditionally, the sanding sheet was held by clamps or pressure rollers. However, the new "Prcss'n Sand" sticky- back sandpaper sheets arc 100 percent fastened without devices. They adhere tightly to the sandcr's base (or shoe), preventing tearing or ripping while sanding. You can sand efficiently and economically. • Sanding Block—Ideal for sanding small and medium- sized items. The "Prcss'n Sand" self-adhesive sanding sheets are easy to use. • Measuring Tapes—Those contained in metal cases are adequate for do-il-yoursclfcrs. A hook is provided at one end so one person can handle the measuring without assistance. • Try-square—consists of a steel rule set al a right angle into a piece of wood or iron. It is used as a guide for marking lines at right angles to a surface or edge and also to determine whether an end or edge is square with the adjoining surface. • Level— a simple instrument used for a horizontal or vertical check of balance. It contains three glass tubes which are partially filled with a liquid, usually alcohol. Leveling is accomplished when an air bubble in the glass tubes is centered between two marks. A level is necessary when hanging pictures, shelves or wall lamps. Sizes vary from six inches to four feet. For home use, any one. from six to twelve inches, is recommended. Do it yourself! The rewards of doing your own repairs arc many: economy, convenience and self- satisfaction.

HYDRO Important energy conservation tips REDUCE NIGHT TEMPERATURES To maintain comfort, and at the same time conserve energy, savings can be effected by reducing night temperatures. With the recommended reduction of 5°C (I0°F) there can be a 10% saving in energy. Use convenient automatic or manual re-set thermostats or controls. REDUCE INDOOR TEMPERATURES FOR HEATING ECONOMY FIG. 3 t SAVINGS WITH REDUCED NIGHT TEMPERATURES 16° 60° Celsius 21" 20° Night Temperatures _ . . „ _,„„ ■ - Fahrenheit 70" 68° 18° 64° Annual Energy Savings 0% 4% 6% 10% FOLLOW OTHER GOOD PRACTICES FOR FURTHER SAVINGS IN ENERGY Avoid unnecessary glass areas. Window areas now are often about 20% of wall areas. Reducing these to 10% and double glazing can reduce heating energy requirements in the order of 20%. Even conventional double glazing has ten times the heat loss of a frame wall with RI2 insulation. Heat losses from window areas can be reduced further by using wood window frames or metal sash with a thermal break between outer and inner frames. Doors & Windows — weatherstrip windows and doors and add storm doors to reduce infiltration. Locate thermostats correctly — on inside'walls where they are not affected by heat from the sun, appliances, lights etc., or by drafts. Keep fireplace dampers closed when not in use — ensure a reasonably tight fit. Drapes — make certain that drapes do not trap the hot air from baseboard heaters between drapes and window. See Data Sheet El501. Windows—keep windows closed except to air out the house, and turn down thermostats during airing out period. " Keep rugs and furniture clear of registers and grilles to assist air circulation. Use exhaust fans to prevent increased moisture permeation through walls and ceilings — damp insulation increases heat losses, resulting in higher use of energy for heating. Keep furnace fillers, return air grilles and ducts clean. Filters should be cleaned or changed monthly during the heating season. Central healing system — where oil or grease receptacles arc provided for motor bearings they should be attended to twice every heating season. WATER HEATING Next lo heating, water heating is the biggest consumer of energy, and savings in this important area arc readily effected. — The ideal setting for kitchen and laundry use is 60°C-65°C (I40°F-I50°F) — If there is a separate water heater for bathrooms: 40°C-50°C (104°F-I22°F) — Long hot water pipe runs arc wasteful. Locate the water heater as near as possible lo point of use. Consider the advisability of more than one water heater in larger homes. Hot water pipes should be insulated with a minimum !4" wrap-around insulation. — Forcleclric water heating choose a "Performance Certified" water heater to ensure high efficiency. — Check dripping taps. A hot water tap dripping once every second wastes a tankful of water every week. — Become familiar with the controls of automatic washers and dishwashers by reading the instruction books. Lamps are Different Choose the right fluorescent lamp for the situation. The most commonly used fluorescent lamps are Standard Cool White, Standard Warm White, Deluxe Cool White, and Deluxe Warm White. The Deluxe lamps are preferable for use in the living areas of the home. Deluxe Cool White is the best choice for utility areas or where the colour scheme is in cool colours. Where rooms are decorated in warm colours (Orange, Red, Beige etc.) and for Vanity mirror lighting, the Deluxe Warm White lamp is more suitable. Standard lamps have a higher efficiency and are excellent for workbench or garage; any area that requires a high level of light and where colour rendition is not important. Deluxe lamps, however, have been designed to produce a more refined colour rendition ... and while some efficiency is lost, the energy saving is still several limes thai of incandescent lamps. , Light Controls The right levels of lighting for seeing tasks, whether it be in the kitchen, workshop, den, livingroom or bedroom, must be maintained for visual comfort, safety and general well being. Energy can be conserved however by using light controls where applicable. — Dimmers or hi-low switches can be'used to vary dining room light levels for dining or more critical seeing, to reduce hall lights to night light levels, and to give flexibility in many other areas. — Timers simplify the safety aspect of giving the home a lived-in look during absence, without leaving lights on day and night. — Planned 3-way switching facilitates turning lights off when going from room to room. Colour Reflectances Because light colours reflect light, large room surfaces should be light in colour to increase the efficiency of the lighting system. The following guidelines are recommended. See paint reflectance charts. Ceilings — min. 60%-90% reflectance. (Off-white or soft pastels.) Walls — min. 35%-60% reflectance. (Even the lightest wood panelling will rarely have more than 30% reflectance.) If you panel one wall, offset this poor reflectance by using higher reflectances elsewhere. Floors — min. 15%-35% reflectance. This allows for very rich colours. In areas such as the kitchen, where lighting is predominantly from the ceiling, much lighter finishes are advisable. Use the light you need, but turn lights off when not required. 1B°C 20°C 21°C 22°C 23°C 64 °F 68. 70. 72°F 74 °F FIG. 2 INDOOR TEMPERATURE MAINTAINED .Select the temperatures required for comfort — but avoid overheating.
