ALDERGROVE - Everyone's looking forward to sunny skies and friendly faces this weekend, as the town once again celebrates Aldergrove Festival Days. Organizers promise a little something for everyone, beginning Friday evening. There will be fireworks, ball tournaments, outhouse races and much more, all with the theme of the "Nifty Fifties." On Friday evening, kids will enjoy the bike and trike decorating contest at the Elks' Hall, teens will dance to the high- powered MuchMusic show at the Arena, and the adults can take in the casino at the Legion Hall. All ages are welcome to the ice cream eating contest at the Aldergrove Mall, and Parkside Lamont's time is up, says Wenman OTTAWA - MP Bob Wenman says it's now time for the federal government to work for the release of Christine Lamont and David Spencer from the Brazil prison where they are serving a 28 year sentence for their conviction in a kidnapping. Wenman returned from Brazil, where he visited Lamont and Spencer, while he was there as a delegate to the Earth Summit, and Tuesday morning he headed into a Commons justice committee looking into the Larnont-Spencer case. Lamont: and Spencer were from Langley and Moncton, respectively. The couple have already served three years in prison, and the Brazilian court appeals now appear to be stalled, said Wenman. He insisted that it was not appropriate for the Canadian government to j interfere while there was legal "due process" underway, but now there is no longer that impediment because the appeal process seems to be exhausted. Lamont and Spencer have maintained their innocence throughout the past three years, and Lamont's family is currently arguing their case before the Commons committee. Wenman added that the matter of innocence or guilt was no longer relevant because the. couple have already served what Canadians consider sufficient time for participation in such a crime. However, if they were innocent, Wenman called the sentence and jail time a "gross injustice" and violation of their rights. . Wenman said he would work to have the couple expelled from Brazil and returned to Canada, and he predicted strong support' for this effort in Parliament. Elementary plays host to the opening ceremonies and after dark, the grand fireworks display. The crowds at the fireworks display are only rivalled by those who rum out for Saturday morning's parade down Fraser Highway. It begins at 10 a.m., and this year, due to its larger size, it starts from 271 Street and winds up at the Legion grounds. Other activities that day are the Slo- Pitch Tournament with concessions and beer garden at local parks, Pepsi taste patrol, antique tractor pull, horseshoe tournament, Ronald McDonald show, balloon sculptors, jugglers, best dressed '50s contest, karaoke, Elvis impersonation contest, and the Nifty Fifties dance. The dance features local favorites, 32nd Avenue, at the mall, along with costume, spot dance and door prizes. Food and refreshments are available at the dance, which is closed to minors. For Sunday, the agenda includes more karaoke, face painting, balloons, and the final games of the Slo-Pitch Tournament. A humorous highlight is the noon Outhouse Races at Countryside Shopping Centre. Other activities ■ .include the antique farm engines display, horseshoe tournament, hula hoop contest, lip sync contest and spaghetti eating contest.

JUNE 11.1992 40 CENTS Established 1957 3089-272nd Street Fax:856-5212 Phone:856-8303 Nobody cares except for us OTTAWA - According to an Angus Reid survey conducted in March that polled 15 different countries, the international community is not unduly concerned whether Quebec separates from the rest of Canada or not. Highlights of the survey include France, Britain, Russia and Germany as being the only countries polled most likely to know anything at all of the problem; that one of five people polled in France, Italy and Spain said they were sympathetic to Quebec and would aid in any way if they could in that province's drive for independence; that 47 percent of Americans polled said they wouldn't be concerned if Quebec left Canada, but perhaps the most surprising find was that many countries in the world are totally unaware of the crisis facing Canada. The general feeling among most of the countries polled was that Canada should be left alone to deal with its own problems without interference from the international community. CONGRA TULA TIONS!

Store-owners, convinced that low U.S. gas prices are the major incentive for cross-border shopping, are fighting back with a two-and-a-half month long promotion that promises gasoline at 35 cents a litre or less. A Chamber of Commerce task force will be distributing special .coins which will allow consumers to buy cut-rate gas at participating service stations. It will also generate goodwill and sales for participating retailers. Beginning on July 15, businesses will be able to purchase $1 red coins and 50 cent blue coins from local financial institutions for 80 and 40 cents each, respectively. Businesses will then distribute the gas coins to their customers as they see fit, although giving out a one dollar gas coin per $10 purchase is U0U... and suggested. Customers then may use a dollar coin towards every five litre gas purchase, effectively reducing their gas purchase to prices competitive to those across the border. The gas stations then take the coins back to the financial institutions where they receive 75 cents for the $1 coin and 38 cents for the 50 cent coins. Task force chair Susan Black said the cost to businesses is an investment of 80 cents per coin, and the five cent difference after the service stations receive 75 School funding "never this bad" cents would go to the financial institutions for administration costs. The program has been used elsewhere in Canada with great success. It will end here on September 30. For information on participating, contact the chamber office at 859-9651.

He told the Legislature, June 2, that in School District 34, out of 18 elementary schools, 13 have completely cut music and band programs, nine discontinued swimming programs and 14 have severely cut back library services. He asked education minister Elizabeth Cull what she would do to restore programs and a balanced education. Cull's response was that this year's allotment to Abbotsford school district was one of the highest in recent memory, and that it was the local district's responsibility to provide services demanded by the community. r \°VL7A 2 for i\ Pizza, and Pasta House Or Celebrates Aldergrove days with great lunch specials III Any Pasta with a side order of Caesar Salad and apiece of our Homemade tfa/^Q^f* Focaccia bread!

"Farms that have been passed from generation to generation^ are going under because the province is feuding with ihe federal government over jurisdiction and areas of responsibility," says Official Opposition Critic for Agriculture Bob Chisholm. "It's time the squabbling is put aside so we can deal with the real problem — foreign dumping and lack of government support." Chisholm says he is particularly concerned about Fraser Valley lettuce growers, who are facing stiff competition from California producers who are dumping lettuce in B.C. at $3. (US) a case even though their production costs are close to $6. a case. B.C. lettuce sells for about $8. a case. "Talk and rhetoric is cheap," Chisholm says, "but U.S. produce is even cheaper. The Minister is a walking contradiction; one minute he says dumping is a federal issue, the next minute he is promising BC producers that the. government can help by making it more difficult to import US produce." The Liberal critic notes that Barlee has indicated. the government can conduct strict safety inspections of US trucks importing goods as well as inspecting every vegetable imported to ensure they have not been sprayed with chemicals not allowed in B.C. "Planting and growing season is already underway, and farmers need assurances they will be able to sell their crops at harvest time," Chisholm says. "I'm calling on the government to immediately begin close inspection of US produce to ensure they meet Canadian quality and safety standards." The Liberal critic also noted a commitment made by the Agriculture Minister to launch a 'Buy BC campaign. "This promise was made four months ago, but so far we have seen nothing. A campaign is only useful when there is BC produce to buy, it is not good to us in the dead of winter . when the government finally gets around to it." Kwfei Youna Offenders Act Chang not fl .'■.:-. tough ||; 0 enough l|l OTTAWA - A citizens group says changes to the Young Offenders Act aren't good enough, despite the fact that some of those changes would mean longer ' r^f 'incarceration periods for young lawbreakers. They include a raise in the maximum sentence for youths aged 12 to 17 from three years to five years for those found guilty of murder in juvenile court, which automatically increases the possibility of transfers to adult court for such serious crimes. "We were hoping that they would lower the ages - it should be for age 10 to 15, not 12 to 17," said Inge Clausen of the Citizens United for Safety and Justice. Criminology professor Robert Gordon of Simon Fraser University was also critical of the changes. "It's unlikely to do very much more than encourage the further use of institutions for young offenders, which has quite clearly shown to be quite ineffective," he said.

JUNE 11. 1992 Quality education for everybody ByJOHNBURNHAM In 1970, Canadians paid $4.6- billion to operate the school system. In 1988, the cost was $21- billion. Did your income quadruple over that period of time? Mine didn't Regardless of how the figures might get juggled to account for inflation and the recession, we now pay at least twice as much for the same service. The same service? Not exactly. In 1970, there were 5-7 million students in the system. Today, there are only 4.7 million. That means we are paying twice as much for eighty percent of the service. ff|§| When questioned about this performance, education system functionaries will say that it is necessary to insure a "quality education". I have never been able to get a definition of that phrase, but it seems to mean something like this: The relationship between cost and the quality of education a student receives is directly proportional. The more it costs, the better it is. Therefore, we have a sacred duty to accept constantly escalating costs so that the quality of education may constandy improve. Has the increased outflow from your pockets enriched the educational experience of our children? An answer can only be obtained by consulting those who must utilize or build upon that imparted by the school system - employers and university level educators. How many merchants or businessmen do you think you could find who would say that the '88 grad mad a more effective employee than the 70 grad? Not many - if any at all. That sentiment is echoed by professors who decry the lack of preparedness for college level work evidenced by the freshman of the 1990s. There is no evidence that a more expensive educational system is better. In fact, there is mounting evidence that just the opposite is true. Get the report on the Canadian school system by University of Alberta economist Bruce Wilkinson for a scholarly development of that- thesis. If you want more pragmatic evidence, consider the burgeoning private school movement. Parents who elect to place their children in private schools pay twice as much for the education. They pay taxes plus tuition. Yet every day the number of parents who elect to do this increases. Time was when you could dismiss these people as religious zealots because most of the private schools had a religious base. This is no longer so. The present growth of secular private schools demands that we ask why an increasing number of people make this sacrifice. Studies are available which answer the question - graduates from these facilities seem to be better equipped to earn a living and to obtain further education. The real zinger is that the actual per pupil cost of private schools is far below that of the public system. It would seem that we as taxpayers have paid- an awful price to enrich the education of our children and they weren't enriched. Who was enriched? Where did the money go? A review of salaries and benefit packages within the educational system explains where some of it went. According to Statistics Canada, teachers enjoy the highest Wages of any employment group. The B.C. Teachers Federation likes to compare teacher income with that of doctors, dentists and lawyers. That is typical BCTF fact distortion. Doctors, dentists and lawyers are self-employed professionals, not employees.- They must make huge outlays for equipment and maintain places of business. They provide their own benefit packages and lay out huge sums for malpractice insurance. Teachers, on the other hand,, have no investment, no overhead, often have benefit packages which are entirely paid ! for by their taxpayer employer, and are protected by a union. They must be considered employees. The average teacher salary is $38,290.00. The average salary for an employee in private enterprise is $22,742. Another portion of the missing funds is being sucked up by the Peter Principle. In 1969, Vancouver-bbrn professor of education Laurence J. Peter published the thesis that "In a hierarchy every employee tends to rise to his level of incompetence." Education system functionaries are often protected by elaborate. job security schemes, so the incompetents are either left in place or shunted off to study something. The Peter Principle alone can explain why cost increases outrun inflation. To claim that these increases are for the benefit of the children is a blatant insult. The rest of the answer may be found by considering the invisible organizations within the system which, though paid for by you and I, serve only to increase the cost of the system. The B.C. Teachers Federation managed to increase the cost of operating the school system in British Columbia by $300-million last year as they negotiated new contracts. The B.C. School Trustees Association now suggests that they might be able to prevent that amount from being quite as much during the next round if we will just give them $3-5-mi!iion more to work with. Who -is kidding whom? This ' is just nothing more than the old political technique of Crisis Management. Create a crisis and then offer to solve it - for a price. Hitler was the master practitioner of this technique, but he was a little more gentlemanly about it - he didn't use the children as the fulcrum. From the above, the picture is clear. It shows a system which is out of control. If you care to read a book called The Closing of the American Mind' ' (Simon & Schuster) by Professor Allen Bloom of the University of Chicago, you will discover that the U.S. has an identical problem. Our entire North American educational system is ineffective and out of control. Therefore, we can conclude that the term "quality education" is a buzz phrase coined by the system to protect itself. It is supposed to invoke some sort of fear that questioning education costs is tantamount to denying our children. The effectiveness with which "quality education" is being used to perpetuate an out- of-control situation would almost seem to prove that witchcraft and. superstition will prevail over reason and intellect. How else could you get somebody to pay two bucks for a dollar cigar which is twenty percent smoked? DID YDU HEAR THE LATEST? MULRONEY'S &OT . MORE LOAFERS IN HIS CLOSET THAN HIS GA8/NET-. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Paying our way Editor, The Star, Sir, By now you have all gotten your tax bill and you find that the homeowner grant has not been lost like some were saying. Instead it has been increased by $20 for everybody, not for the privileged few- which was the case with the Social Credit's supplement homeowner grant. It was for those with twin carports, swimming pools, and tennis courts. ^SkA It was a well kept secret (it would be nice to know how many of those sitting on the hill got the extra payout). It seems that even the press did not know that the up and up in our society were getting an extra handout, that is I never seen anything in the press until the NDP eliminated the supplement homeowner grant. Many, people were led to believe that the homeowner grant was eliminated, because »they had not heard of. any supplement. Now the hews from the hill is telling us that we will have to pick up the tab for the 18.5% lost by the elimination of the supplement homeowner grant. At least that is how I read it. Are they somehow having a separate tax rate for the up and up? After all, most of them on the hill are Social Credit or Conservatives. TED HANSEN Aldergrove More people should be... Editor, The Star, Sir, This letter is addressed to the person who stole my son's leather jacket and the parents of the teenager who suddenly has a dove grey suede jacket. My son has a nice car and nice clothes that he has worked very hard for. During high school and also now while attending college he has worked delivering Chinese food. This summer he's also working days as a labourer to pay his own way, as well as his delivery job. Last week he and a friend ate at Big D's hamburger place. He left without his jacket and five minutes later went back to look for it. Within that short time his jacket' was gone. At $5.50 an hour he will be a long time replacing a $450 jacket. I'm sure whoever took the jacket looked with envy at his clothes and car. But 1 suggest that they should do what he has done for these things - work for them! MADALYNN GILMORE Aldergrove MP's have no shame Editor, The Star, Sir, Most Members of Parliament should be ashamed of themselves. They claim that Bill C-55, now before Parliament, makes their gold-plated pension plan fairer. The truth is that this bill is nothing but a cynical, deceptive shell game. Once the politicians flash and trickery is over, all of the lavish benefits of the MPs' pension plan remain the same. A leading independent pension expert has attacked Bill C-55 as a "waste of time". For instance, under Bill C-55 MPs could still leave office after only six years and immediately start collecting pensions for life regardless of their age. These fat pensions would start at about $18,000 per year and would still have unlimited protection against inflation. What's really outrageous is that the great majority of our MPs seem to see nothing wrong with clinging to these lavish perks when 1.5-million Canadians are out of work and 2-million are on welfare! We urge your readers to contact their MPs and press them. Please see page 5... —BWSMBHH LETTERS TO THE EDITOR No good reasons for Chrisholme closure shown to staff members THE ALDERGROVE STAR. JUNE 11. 1992 Separatists or Editor, The Star, Sir, What reasons could the board of directors possibly have for closing a fully funded and much needed program? This is the question . that has plagued Chrisholme staff since we so callously received a notice "going but of business", February 12, 1992. I would like to clarify for the interested public what has been taking place since that time. During a board of directors meeting of January 13, Mr. Booth and Mr. Hooper both stated that the board was content with the present Chrisholme staff. Staff members attending that same meeting asked directly if the board had confidence in its staff. Mr. Booth's reply was, "There are some further changes that we are planning to make to the program but don't worry it will not affect any of you." As he gave his assurances he made a sweeping gesture with his hand which took in all the staff present in the room. Who did the board think would be affected by closing a valued program that employs 16 Chrisholme and four School District staff members? The program did not have an executive director at this time to represent staff concerns, so staff members attended the board meeting even though this is not normal practice. The reasons for requesting attendance at the board meeting was to dear up some misconceptions and conflicting information the staff ■ had been given regarding past management and board directives. For the most part, our. questions were not answered. The ineffective way some board RIPOFF! || From page 4... . to not only scrap Bill C-55 but to fundamentally reform this rip-off of the Canadian taxpayer. National polls find unprecedented disrespect for MPs. They have earned that disrespect Let's hope they try to earn our respect back by doing the right thing with their pension plan. DAVID SOMERVTLLE Toronto members attempted communication only reinforced in our 'minds that these directors were not going to be open to any staff suggestions or advice regarding the program and ultimately our students. Consequently, the Chrisholme staff then . pursued their application to become members of the BCGEU. The program continued to operate with a program coordinator and front line staff. The staff are responsible for the education, counselling and caring of the* students. It has not been an easy task given the continued anxieties caused by the impending closure. Since the January board of directors meeting direct and personal contact with the staff has not been made by any board member. Letters of concern for the program from both staff and students have not received the courtesy of a reply. The notice of closure was delivered to our work site by courier on February 12,1992. I have over 20 years of volunteer work experience. I have had the pleasure and challenge of being part of Parks & Recreation Boards, Parent Advisory committees, and both Provincial and National Boards of Directors that govern service clubs across Canada. Never in my experience have I witnessed such deceit, poor communication skills and narrow minded viewpoints, as this board has exhibited. The Chrisholme Board of Directors have been offered support and assistance from both professionals and ■ volunteers (free of charge) and yet it appears that their minds are set on a path and direction that spells only disaster for our students that so desperately need this program. Board statements to the media, have continually insisted that the program is closing due to lack of referrals and funding and have left the impression with the. public that even though the board cares about the students' welfare, they have no other choice but to sell the property. Both excuses have been dispelled, by facts, several We're moving B.C.Hydro—Abbotsford At noon on June 12 our Montrose Avenue office in Abbotsford will close. We will re-open at our new location at 916 Riverside Road at noon on Monday June 15.

BG hydro BS times over. If there was any truth to their reasonings for closure, the staff, students and parents alike would accept a program closure. Even though the same feelings of disappointment and anxiety by and for our students would be felt. Furthermore, I find the boards' position on caring for the boys, difficult to understand or believe, when they have made no effort to meet with organizations, that are willing to work with their board and/or form a new society to manage the existing program. Parents, doctors, psychiatrists, dentists, volunteers, child care workers, social workers, school board trustees, politicians, etc. etc. etc. ■■ have all written letters of support for the continuation of the program. Financial support has been assured as well as support in terms of membership to the society and a willingness for people to be involved as volunteer board members. But still they ignore all the pleas. B.C. tax payers have funded the program for 27 years and have a right to some honest answers to such questions as: "What are the real reasons for closing the program?" "How will your board disperse the assets of the society?" and "Why won't the board meet with any party whose agenda is to save the Chrisholme program?" SHAME! on you the Chrisholme fathers, who know there are stronger choices to make but stubbornly refuse! MICHELECOLEMAN Teaching Assistant Chrisholme Editor, The Star, Sir, Everyone who has lived in Western Canada for any length of time and been aware of what goes on politically knows that this country has always favoured the interests of Ontario and Quebec. Those two provinces control 194 out of 295 seats in the House of Commons and supply two-thirds of Canada's Supreme Court judges. They contain the center of Canada's means of communication, its press, publishing, television and radio regulation. The powers of Ontario and Quebec in the House have always decided that the national interest means the interests of Ontario and Quebec, with usually Quebec first. I for one, and many others, have believed for a long time that separation is the only solution. However many now contend that a Triple E senate can prevent the repetition of eastern bias although it can do nothing to rectify the past. Those people are about to meet their Waterloo — and this time the French will win! A Triple E senate I believe will be pushed from the agenda just so Quebec can be bought off one more time, until its next series of demands emerge in another approximately ten years. Those federalists who oppose a Triple E senate, who are reluctant to give power to a provincially equal senate, fearing a majority of small provinces could thwart the will of the Commons at the expense of the majority of the population should ask themselves this question: How long would the U.S.A. have survived as a country '. if a majority of the small states could not thwart the will of the majority from California and New York? Imagine the scenario if California and New York were both side by side thousands of miles from the West coast, like Ontario and Quebec are. That would be a recipe for the two- state despotism that Canada has been living with for 125 years, to our detriment in the west. If a Triple E senate is not achieved now, before, how will it ever be achieved after Quebec has a veto on constitutional reform? If a Triple E senate is not achieved now, how will the inequities of the past not be repeated in the future? If not now, when? If' not here, where? The answer of course on Senate reform of any meaningful kind to affect the monopoly of Quebec and Ontario is never and nowhere! If any western premier returns to Western Canada having signed a constitution which does not entrench a Triple E senate and proclaims he has achieved constitutional "Peace in our Time," he will suffer the same fate as all premiers who agreed to Meech Lake and then faced the people; like Vander Zalm and Devine they will be soundly defeated. They will have sold their people into another 100 years of economic and political slavery. Then what will those Triple E protesters and milque toast reformers do? Will they become Western separatists or will they surrender? D.H. CHRISTIE, Victoria. SAi LIS Canada's Family Clothing Store ALDERGROVE FESTIVAL SATURDAY ..-JUNE 14.^ 9:00 A.M, TO 5:30 P.M.

Don't let summer fun get you down return to your work without any danger to yourself. Bicycling can be stressful and it doesn't hurt to stop every now and again and rest. Unless you have led a very active life during the winter months you must work yourself into shape for the summer. One of the most frequent errors made by most people is that they think they can hang up the winter coat and play with the same vigor they did the previous September. The first real heavy activity brings cramps and sore muscles and we have all heard it said, "boy, are you going to hurt tomorrow!" You must give your body some time to adjust to the new level of activity. If you do not, you will According to national statistics, 33 percent of all accidents occur during the three summer months of June, July and August. The reason for this concentration of accidents during the summer is thought to be attributable to the fact that more Canadians spend . out-of-doors and in pursuit of activities not normally available given the environmental climate of Canada. Recreation-related injuries show the greatest incidence at 16 percent and second only to motor vehicle accidents. Sports and recreational activities lead to the highest percentage of broken bones, dislocations, sprains, strains and bruises. Although few of these injuries are life-threatening, they do account for 8.7-million activity loss . days and 1.5-millibn disability days. Active living is on the rise in Canada. Between 1981 and 1988 there was a 50 percent increase in the number of Canadians who spent leisure time in such pursuits. For the majority of Canadians "feeling better physically and mentally" and "getting outdoors" are the reasons, and given these goals it is not surprising that the top four leisure pursuits in Canada are predominantly fair 'jm weather activities such as walking, gardening, swimming and bicycling. 8o The problem is in the other leisure activities. People simply do not prepare themselves for the leisure activities they engage in. Walking is about the best activity and requires the least amount of preparation, and the same can be said of swimming. Gardening means a great deal of bending, kneeling and reaching. While there is little you can do to prepare for this activity, standing up periodically and stretching will aid in continued flexibility and downplay fatigue. Using a hoe or a rake causes considerable stress on shoulder muscles, but when you feel tired,- stretch youT^.back and you can-^Tt_ hurt and end up going to the doctor with strained ligaments or pulled tendons. There is no percentage in being macho anymore. You do not impress the ladies with that attitude anymore and if you feel the need-for an ego-boost, pride yourself in going slow at first and being a smart leisure activity person. Keeping up with the Jones' is a 1940s attitude and should be left in that era. One of the most destructive slogans was "No pain, no gain" and probably coined by a couch potato just to get back at all those who exercise frequently.

It's the 8th annual Bicycle Trek for Life & Breath, September 12-13 sponsored by the B.C. Lung Association. "Add gears to your life" is the theme of this year's 200-kilometre ride, in which some 200 cyclists ride at their own.pace over the scenic country roads of the Fraser Valley and northwestern Washington state. For each trekker, summer will focus on training for the ride and collecting donations to help meet the Trek 92 goal of raising $160,000 for medical research, health education and the association's other activities in B.C. All participants must collect donations totalling at least $350 each before the trek. The more donations trekkers collect, the more incentives they earn. This means prizes like mountain bikes and cycling equipment, clothing, Walkmans, gift certificates and multiple chances in drawings for fine restaurant dining, resort packages and international travel on Air Canada. More than 70 companies have donated products and services to Trek 92, and major sponsors include Air Canada, 7-Eleven, the Vancouver Courier, Norco, Robson Cycles, Rocky Mountaineer Railtours. The cyclists will enjoy a healthy, fun-filled weekend on the trek, and BCLA provides: meals, refreshments and snacks, overnight accommodation at Cultus Lake, transport of sleeping bags and other personal gear, training tips, advice on fund- raising, a safety information session, detailed maps and mechanical support on the road, a free wrap-up party in early November, and more.

Drilling rights sale brings millions TORONTO - Canada's military machine is just "not capable", according to a senior Canadian Forces officer. Writing to a military journal called the Canadian Defense Quarterly, Col. K.T.Eddy criticized the country's forces, calling for improvement, saying thee "Canadian forces, especially the army ... is simply not capable of sustained operations against any large-scale foreign or domestic threat." Eddy wrote that the country's war doctrines are 10 years behind those of the United States, alleging that even a military raid would be "beyond our ability." He charged the praise given to the Canadian military involved in the Persian Gulf war was exaggerated, and "out of all proportion to the effort." "We in national defense no doubt suffer the same stifling effects that affect most bureaucracies who serve themselves better than those they were intended to serve," he wrote. VICTORIA - The May sale of oil and gas drilling rights brought $2-million in revenue to the province, according to mines minister Anne Edwards. spls Last month's sale offered nine drilling licenses and 42 leases - covering a total of 20305 hectares.

Researchers in Indiana and Nevada have succeeded in transplanting bonemarrow from adult humans into sheep embryo. What does this mean'' This test sheep, now one year old, is now producing both sheep and human blood cells. This is another major step in the field of biotechnology in which organic capabilities of humans, animals, birds, reptiles, insects and even certain plant species are capable of exchanging genes!

Wildlife Federation are asking for a comprehensive restructuring which would grant the provincial environment ministry an equal role in saltwater fisheries decision making. "Co-management between federal and provincial fisheries managers will result in a less political, much more scientific approach than that which has existed in the past," the BCWPs fisheries committee says in a- brief submitted to the organization's recent convention Despite years of lobbying efforts, "the federal Department of Fisheries and Oceans has refused to effectively deal with the problem." And while some progress has been made towards shared federal-provincial management of the resource, "any gains made have been minuscule." Steelhead trout and coho salmon runs "progressively. diminish each year on many of B.C's premier river systems" and Ottawa's refusal to act has resulted in"gradual but steady declines." "Commercial net fisheries" coupled with "mixed-stock commercial harvesting methods" has resulted in an over-all decline of B.C.'s saltwater fish populations. "Some stocks are now considered to be in danger of extinction," according to the BCWF brief. Thompson River steelhead stocks have fallen from an original run of 20,000 fish annually to less than 1,500 today. Skeena River steelhead numbers have dropped from an annual return of about 60,000 to less than 20,000 annually under Ottawa's stewardship, according to the BCWF. Ottawa "is politically motivated in its management approach and manages primarily for the benefit of the commercial fisheries sector." The shared federal-provincial management scheme should strive to include native concerns by "quickly" finding a way to "involve native Indians ... in the fisheries management decision making process."

TAYLOR Today's topic focuses on an important principle which applies whenever two parties attempt to negotiate a contract, and it offers some practical suggestions to assist in the process. A contract can be simply defined as a set of promises which the law will enforce. The process of contracting is the same whether the object of negotiations involves the sale of your neighbour's lawnmower or a multi-billion dollar hydroelectric project. It has been my experience that even large, supposedly sophisticated companies fail to follow basic steps, often with disastrous consequences. First and foremost is the principle of offer and acceptance. This requirement is sometimes refened to simply as a "meeting of the minds". Both parties must intend to enter into a contract, and there should be a clear understanding of what is expected from each. This is why the creation of a written contract is essential, in order to document both parties' obligations and avoid future misunderstandings. ME I students among top VANCOUVER - Students from Mennonite Educational Institute in Abbotsford are among the finalists in the 1992 CA Business Game sponsored by the Institute of Chartered Accountants of B.C. There were six school teams out of 59 in the province to succeed in the May 15 championship finals. It's an eight-month long competition that involves students in grades 10 to 12, who work with a chartered accountant who provides advice in the decision-making process. The following suggestions are also strongly recommended to enhance your contracting success: • Ensure that the parties^ are accurately and complete described in the contract, including addresses, and make sure that the parties signing have the actual or apparent authority to do so. • In the event that one or both parties are content to simply exchange their "standard form contract," always make sure that the agreed terms are consolidated either by letter or by separate agreement, and that they are acknowledged and accepted by both parties. If this is not done, you run the risk that conflicting or contradictory terms may be interpreted by a court, in favour of the other party. • In situations where there are lengthy discussions or meetings or extensive documents changing hands, it is advisable to.try and "control the paperwork". This simply means that you accept the responsibility for preparing and forwarding to the other party the various contract drafts for their review and acceptance. In this way, you can ensure that the contract is accurate and complete and does not contain any unnecessary bias incorporated by the other party. • Another element which is" essential for contracting success, but which is often overlooked, involves someone reviewing the contract from time to time to ascertain whether the various obligations have been properly fulfilled.. Too often this only happens after minor problems have become insurmountable obstacles. Scott T.

Minister for the status of women, Mary Collins charged that the articles are implying there should be a return to the "June Cleaver kind of attitude." % "That, is not the reality of women's existence in society today," said Collins, drawing attention to two other articles, one by the Ottawa citizen called "What will it be, Mom? The kids or the job?" and one by Chatelaine magazine called "Our families come fkst: Why more mothers are choosing to stay at home." / Beware of elk BANFF, Alta. - Look out tourists; the number one dangerous animal this year in Banff and Jasper is not the bear, and not the cougar. The most dangerous animal roaming the park is the elk. This year the animals are so aggressive that park officials are closing three popular hiking trails to avoid any problems.

Collins, a single' mother of three, said women so often must work out of necessity and that the articles are not fair. "And in terms of how society regards women, it shouldn't be one or the other. Unfortunately, it's those kinds of attitudes that pit women against each other. It's very destructive and unhelpful," she said. peers with problems of all sorts, but they all agree that there are many benefits accorded to peer counsellors which make it more than worthwhile.

Answer: each author has considerable admiration and respect for Manitoba novelist Carol Shields. The Republic of Love, her tenth book, is set in contemporary Winnipeg and devotes alternate chapters to recounting the lives of Tom Avery, a late-night talk show host and Fay McLeod, a folklorist specializing in mermaids. The novel offers many fascinating . glimpses into the careers of its two dominant characters while taking excursions into the lives of their friends and relatives. Although Tom and Fay are destined for love at first sight, they don't meet until well into the novel. In the meantime, The Republic of Love pursues a theme that runs counter to the love interest: the loneliness of the divorced or separated. As the story begins, Tom has had three divorces—the last, two years in the past—and Fay has had three relationships, though never a marriage. Tom and Fay finally meet at the birthday party of Fay's nephew. Spotting her coming up the sidewalk, Tom falls instantly in love, and when Fay meets him inside, the attraction turns out to be mutual. Tom offers to drive Fay home, only to be baffled by his missing car. Slowly, it sinks into his love-addled brain that he walked. Obviously, the man's drunk on love. But, in Shakespeare's phrase, "the course of true love never did run smooth," and, sure enough, within an hour Fay has left for a month of research in Europe. Tom, desperate to express his love for the absent Fay, devises and scuttles various wild schemes, realizing they would merely reveal his lunacy to the one woman he's desperate to impress. i$M Finally, he decides to put his feelings on paper. The results prove no less compromis- i ing than his other pipe dreams, and no sooner is the message irretrievably sent than he cringes with embarrassment at having so nakedly revealed himself. The comic upshot occurs when Fay receives the letter in Paris and insists that an embarrassed hotel employee read Tom's declaration of love to her on the phone. If all that isn't wild enough, Tom sends "a lavish arrangement of flowers" to his three ex-wives—just to celebrate, of course. To borrow the title of a Luanne Rice novel, Tom and Fay are "crazy in love." And that is one of the marvels of the book: the way it captures the absolute irrationality and elation of love. Ultimately, The Republic of Love is for anyone not too jaded to believe that men and women do fall in love— if only for a while. Yet the whole novel is not written on that elevated plane. After all, Tom and Fay don't meet until the midway point, and the first half is devoted to the more sombre theme of loneliness, though the tale itself never becomes gloomy. Ultimately, The Republic of Love is for anyone not too jaded to believe that men and women do fall in love—if only for a while. If you want to find out whether this novel joins the thousands of other contemporary stories where love is found only to be lost, you'll have to read it for yourself. But you won't be wasting your time regardless of the outcome. ;^| Address comments to Ken Lang, Box 51, PERKINSFIELD, ON, L0L 2J0 A View from Hospital Mill maaia-ia't. The Langley Widows Helping Others group was first started in 1980 and has grown from an enthusiastic group of two or three members to a membership of 50. With encouragement from Family Services and grants from New Horizons, the chapter has established a daily drop-in for members and a very solid network. There is always someone at the club room Monday to Friday from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Any widow who is lonely and wants someone to talk to is welcome to drop in and have a cup of tea or coffee. Many women have found friendship and a renewed interest in life in this group, after being widowed and retired from* a busy and fulfilling life.

Some of the ladies work as volunteers at Penny Pinchers, the Langley Memorial Hospital Auxiliary thrift shop and the Hospital Gift Shop.

I first got involved with W.H.O. when Eva Drander invited me to a potluck dinner in the summer of 1987. I had lost my husband in January. There were so many strangers at the dinner yet I was made to feel very welcome. I became a member in September, 1987 and have made some very good friends since then. I appreciate these friendships.

JUNE 11. 1992 13 Looking for a friend? By KURT LANGMANN ABBOTSFORD - Since last year's closure of the Langley SPCA shelter, due to financial difficulties, the new facility near the Huntingdon border crossing has been responsible for the entire region from 195 Street to the Chilliwack border. With a staff of half a dozen, and the generosity of donors who keep the funds coming, the Fraser Valley facility and program is secure. However, it is often overwhelmed by the enormity of their warrant area, and branch manager Sarah Spading says there's always more to be done for the care of animals than can be accomplished by the staff. The new board of directors has taken a more aggressive approach to promoting the work of the shelter, with the hope of getting the public to be more aware of what they can do on their own to reduce the numbers of unwanted pets. Board member Gillian Lavender said she also wants to generate more responsible "adoptions" and more volunteer contributions of time and money. Aside from the animal control contracts it has with Abbotsford and Matsqui municipalities, the Fraser Valley SPCA receives no government help whatsoever. The shelter is set up for 20 dogs and 30 cats, plus a bit of overflow when they come across bunnies or ducks. Rescued wildlife is usually transported to Monica's Wildlife Rescue Refuge in Surrey. However, at the height of the breeding season, the shelter receives as many as seven litters of kittens daily. Those who drop off animals are asked for a monetary donation,, but frequently they are unable to do so, which compounds the problems of the shelter. Last year, they handled a total of 3,809 animals. Lavender said the SPCA desires to adopt as many animals as possible, but only to responsible owners. For this reason, they charge $40 for a dog and $10 for a cat, plus a deposit to ensure the animal .is spayed or neutered. The adoption fee includes a free visit to a veterinarian of the customer's choice, so that the correct program of innoculations and care can be established for the proud new owner and pet. Spading is pleased that 780 animals were adopted last year, but unless more pet owners care PIZZA PLACE "Choosing the Best for Less! ft One of the few places in the Lower Mainland that uses whole wheat in their daily prepared home-made dough with no preservatives.

To assist the SPCA with their work, The Star will have a regular feature called Wags and Whiskers, focussing on animals available to the public. Persons who are interested in a creature in the feature are welcome to call the SPCA for an appointment to view and discuss the animal, but must be prepared to make a real commitment to that animal. The public is also, encouraged to participate in other ways.. Memberships are welcome at all times (there are over 1,200 already), and corporate sponsorship is also welcomed to the mutual benefit of the business and the SPCA. Volunteers in all aspects, from fundraising to humane education displays and presentations, crafts, shelter work and maintenance, will be greeted with open arms. The shelter is hosting a rummage sale this Sunday, June 14, 9 am to 4 pm, and they invite all to come down and get acquainted. If you have something to donate to the sale call them at 856-4600, and it would be appreciated.

DOWN ON HER HEELS A real hardship case is this friendly and well-trained female springer spaniel cross, which recently strayed and found temporary shelter at the Fraser Valley SPCA'in Abbotsford. Branch manager Sarah Spatlihg says that when the owner cant be found, older animals are very difficult to adopt out, but not impossible.

ALDERGROVE - Myths and misconceptions about the lower Fraser River were discussed at Earth Day at Aldergrove Elementary School recendy. Pat Weber, environmental administrator for the Fraser River Harbour Locals among SFU grads BURNABY - Simon. Fraser University's 1992 spring graduating class puts the picture of life-long learning into focus from 22-year-old John Caputo from Kamloops, an accounting student just starting out, to 74- year-old Gil Munro of Vancouver, who spent 16 years getting his degree. Another 1,862 students round out the picture. On Thursday, June 4 and Friday, June 5, the graduands were recognized at ceremonies held at SFU's Convocation Mall. Aldergrove grads included: Bachelor of Arts to Smit, Richard John, graduate Of Credo Christian High (Major History) and Zoretich, Craig Michael, graduate of Aldergrove Secondary (Major Psychology); Business Administration to Smith, Shane Ivan, graduate of Aldergrove Secondary; Bachelor of Education to Gibbons, Lynne Olive, graduate of George Pringle Secondary (Major Psychology). Commission, used slides, samples of water, marsh plants, sand and wood products to show students what happens on the river. -:il&r. Weber explained that her job function is to make sure that industry and all leaseholders in the . commission's jurisdiction conform to the environmental regulations established by the commission and government environmental departments. "I make sure the river stays healthy and safe for everyone that uses it," she told the students. Holding up a jar of river water that was very clean with a litde sediment on the bottom, she quickly dispelled the myth about the dirty, polluted river. The water was taken out of the Fraser River at the New Westminster dock and left for a day to setde. It looked like tap water. "The muddy color of the river results from silt washed down the river from other parts of the province," .she explained. "About 23-million tons of silt or fine sand comes down, the river every year!" Weber said the B.C. Ministry of Environment takes samples from the riverbed every year and these samples come out better each year. "This year the samples showed that the river is within regulatory limits," she added. "Salmon river runs are also increasing and the Bald Eagle, which was once and endangered species, is now thriving along the river, along with blue heron and other birds and wildlife." She then passed some marsh grass around to the students and explained how the commission has established habitat areas on the river and planted thousands of these grasses to provide nutrients for fish and wildlife. These grasses or sedges were readily available since the commission is presendy planting a large habitat area along the river in Surrey near the Fraser Surrey Docks. Weber also passed around samples of wood products and explained the importance of the interaction between industry, recreation, environment and wildlife on the river. She told the students that they had a very important part to play in the future of the river. "Children are most important in making our environment better," she added. Weber advised the students not to throw garbage in the river such as pop cans, plastic or candy wrappers. "I want to remind you how important it is to keep our river healthy so that everyone can work, play and live on the beautiful, mighty Fraser. River." The students asked what they could do if they see someone polluting the river? Weber told them to call the B.C. Minister of Envkonment or the Fraser River Harbour Commission.

JUNE 11. 1992 Aldergrove and early settlements recalled By DORA CHAPMAN ALDERGROVE - When governor James Douglas arrived at Fort Langley, then the capital of British Columbia, he sent brochures to the British Isles' and Ireland offering land available at $2 per acre, later the price dropped to $1.05 and finally in later days you just staked out your homestead claim. The Americans were settling in British Columbia and.. Governor Douglas : was afraid the Americans would take over the country. The settlers only mode of travel in those early days was by paddle-wheel steamers up the Fraser River. There were nine main river landings at this time in our area (240th Street to Mt. Lehman), some of which were Glen Valley, Lehman, Nicholson, Marsh, West and McKay landings. In later days there were three railways crossing through the Fraser Valley. The first railway was the Great Northern, then the Canadian National Railway, followed by the B.C. Electric Railway all bringing in settlers. Some of the valley settlements were Sperling, Warhoop, Jackman, Beaver River, County Line, Coghlan, Rand,' Bradner, Dennison and Mt. Lehman on the B.C. Electric Railroad and Aldergrove on the Great Northern Railroad. Roads were mosdy Indian trails under a dense growth of heavy timber. The trees were so large that there was very little underbrush growing around them. The Yale Road (now Fraser Highway) was built by the Royal Engineers, sent out from England by Queen Victoria. Construction of the Yale Road in 1875 was responsible for much of land becoming inhabited by the homesteaders. There were numerous lumber mills all throughout the Valley where the setders could obtain work. In 1872 Philip Jackman Senior,, a Royal Engineer, along with his wife Sara and children settled on a quarter section (64 acres) given to him as a military grant in Aldergrove. He built the first house on Jackman Road (272nd Street). Philip Jackman named the area Alder Grove (two words) because of the abundance of alder trees there. The Jackman's established Aldergrove's original store at Yale Road and Jackman Road. Eggs sold for 15 cents a dozen and butter at the same price. They only operated the store for 3 years as it was not profitable with such a scarce population. In 1886, Robert Shortreed, another homesteader, arrived with his family from Ontario. He built a log cabin and store at the corner of Yale Road and County Line Road (264th Street). It was from this store the first telegraph offie^' and post office were established. The Shortreed cabin still remains at its original site. The first original school in Aldergrove was located at 264th (County Line Road) and Yale Road and became known as the little red school house. The second school was built on the site where Aldergrove Elementary School now stands and is still in operation. There are a few historical points of interest still in the area such as the Coghlan Sub-station on 256 street which is named after Nathaniel and Henry Coghlan who homesteaded close by. This is one of the last of five substations in the vicinity, which was used to boost the power to the B.C. Electric Railway Line. Henry and Nathaniel cut over 20,000 railway ties for the railway, which was completed in October 1910. The F.J. Hart Real Estate Company started in Aldergrove in 1910, selling real estate with a promotional booklet called "The Apple Lands of Aldergrove", this same building was also occupied by the Bank of Toronto for six months. In 1914 the building housed the Aldergrove B.C. Telephone office which is now a heritage building owned by the Alder Grove Heritage Society. A museum and heritage office are the future plans for this building. 1914 saw the establishment of the first bus service by Aldergrove resident Mr. . G.L. Hamre, which ran from Abbotsford to New Westminster. Mr. Hamre's bus was a "stretch Model" made out of Model T. Fords. . At Bradner the present store still sits on its original site, built by George Pratt Senior in 1911, the post office was established in 1912 at the store. Large lumber mills were located at Bradner, as well as in Rand and the Lombard districts. ■ On the Fraser River at Mt. Lehman Landing the remains of the old wooden pilings can be seen where once a boat wharf stood. Many paddle-wheel steamers • with supplies and setders landed' at Mt. Lehman. The fkst store and post office in this area operated at Lehman's landing. It is interesting to note that there have been stores in Mt. Lehman since 1884. The Mt. Lehman Elementary School and still in use is now 108 years old. (Located at the corner of Mt. Lehman and Taylor Road). In 1894, Peardoriville became the official name for this setdement. The first post office was located in the home of Richard Peardon 1890-1918. A log school was built on property donated by Richard Peardon near the comer of Ross and Huntington Road. The school was officially opened in 1896 with 16 pupils and called the Dunach School (pronounced Doonah). In later years Dunach School located at the corner of corner of Mt. Lehman Road and Downes Road. The settlement of Aberdeen was-located at Yale Road and the Aberdeen Road later called the Bradner Road. Early settlers here were William Ross, Hugh Currie, the Sinclair and Gledhill families. The first Aberdeen School was built in 1893 on land located a. quarter mile west of the present Aberdeen School. Mr. Hugh Currie donated the original school property. This is the Aldergrove Hotel as it looked in 1948. Photo is courtesy of Alder Grove Heritage Society which invites all to visit their office in Aldergrove Mall this Festival Days weekend to chat about your family history, and to see the "Aldergrove Before 1950" display and Sandor's painting, "Shortreed's Comers." The office is open June 12-14 for this event. Dennison was a settlement located at Ross Road (Dennison Road) and the B.C. Electric Railway track. At one time this area had a blacksmith shop and three stores, one of which had a hall above it, which was used for meetings, dances and wedding receptions. The Dennison High School was located at the corner of Harris Road and Ross Road. A hotel stood half mile south of the Dennison Railway Station on the Ross Road, many of the loggers and mill workers boarded there. Cook's Electric Mill operated by Sam McLean was located half mile east of Ross Road by the railway tracks. The mill closed in 1923. The district of South Aldergrove was named Patricia in 1911 after the daughter of the Duke of Connaught. The first customs officer for South Aldergrove (Patricia) in 1883 was W.H. Vanetta, a civil war pensioner from Iowa, U.S.A. who operated out of his own home, located four and half miles north of the U.S. border. Sam Campbell became a customs officer in 1907, his office being in his own ranch. Canada Customs erected thek own Customs House in 1912 on the Canada, USA border located on the Aldergrove Bellingham Highway (264th Street). The setdement of Otter was located on the corner of Yale Road and Brown Road (240th Street). The original post office was located approximately two miles south of the Yale Road. Otter Hall is now McDonald Stove and Stones store. St. Alban's Anglican Church built in 1889 at Milner was moved to Otter in 1925 and is still in use. A small grocery store operated by Mr. & Mrs. Justinson was located on the north side of the Yale Road (Fraser Highway) now the present location of the Otter Co-op gas station. Aldergrove area is rich in history.

Finance Minister Glen Clark (left) mail letters to Prime Minister Brian Mulroney at a recent breakfast meeting in Vancouver. The provincial government increased its. financial commitment to the TRIUMF-KAON project — a world-class, national science facility — and friends of KAON' wrote letters to the federal government encouraging Ottawa to work out the details and get the project started. Province offers ope rating costs for KAON project VANCOUVER - Premier Mike Harcourt and Finance Minister Glen Clark announced that the province has made an offer to the government of Canada to pay a portion of the operating costs for the TRIUMF-KAON project. "The time has come for Ottawa to get on with making arrangements with British Columbia and international partners for the world-class TRIUMF-KAON science project,"" said Premier Harcourt. '..£>||| The Government of British Columbia believes that by making this very generous offer to Canada on behalf of all British Columbians, it will serve to accelerate the negotiations with the federal government." Finance Minister Glen Clark, minister responsible for the TRIUMF-KAON project, said the provincial government was prepared to pay a portion of the hydro operating costs which would reach $12-million annually at the peak of TRIUMF- KAON's operating budget. Operating costs are estimated at between $70-million and $90- million annually. Clark said the specific amounts of the province's contribution towards operating costs would Native dancers featured here FORT LANGLEY - Native dancers from Vancouver Island are among the highlights of a Court of Canadian Citizenship to be held at the National Historic Park on Canada Day. Part of the Canada 125 celebration, the ceremony is at 2:30 pm. be the subject of negotiations between the province and Canada. "The province of British Columbia will also be contributing 1/3 of the estimated $708 million (in 1989 dollars) capital costs of the KAON project," said Clark. "This offer represents the greatest single contribution by a provincial government to a national science project in Canada's history." More than 17,000 construction jobs would be created during the six-year building stage for TRIUMF-KAONi as well as 2,000 permanent jobs. The government of Canada offered last fall to make a $236 million capital contribution to the project - less than one-quarter of the project costs - and has offered to continue its current level of funding for the existing TRIUMF accelerator at UBC. But, the federal government has not offered any new funds for the TRIUMF-KAON project itself. The TRIUMF-KAON project is a major national science project located on the University of British Columbia campus. It is an expansion of the current federally funded TRI-University Meson Facility at UBC and will involve the construction of a new particle accelerator to speed particles to 99 percent the speed of light and ultimately create subatomic particles called KAONS which scientists believe hold new answers about all matter in our universe. The study of their properties will lead Canada to new knowledge and important industrial and medical innovations.

"Emperor has no clothes," says Mitchell VANCOUVER - ' Official Opposition House Leader David Mitchell said today that the provincial government's announcement of greater provincial funding for the KAON' project was more a public relations exercise than a sincere commitment to education and science in British Columbia. "Over 1,000 British Columbians showed up this morning in support of the KAON project," said Mitchell, who also serves as the critic for Science and Technology. "However, Premier Harcourt and Finance Minister Glen Clark used the opportunity to continue the game of political posturing and fed-bashing. The level of acrimony is steadily increasing, while it seems like a decision on KAON is slipping away."

Sense of humor vital to recovery, says stroke victim VANCOUVER - "Take each day as it comes and keep your sense of humour" is the advice Madeleine Service offers to others afflicted by stroke. She now lives a full, healthy life after being struck by a stroke 13- years ago. Madeleine suffered, her stroke in a dentist's chair at the age of 49- She was undergoing root canal when she began to gag on cardboard placed in her mouth for an x-ray. She began to vomit violently, leading to a burst blood vessel and a stroke. Unconscious for several days in Vancouver General Hospital, she was paralysed on the left side when she awoke. After two months in hospital and two more months at G.F. Strong for rehabilitation, Madeleine returned home. Soon after that, she returned to her job as a travel agent! Today Madeleine's left hand is still paralysed and her facial muscles slacken when she's tired. She says she copes by applying creativity to everyday challenges. "One way I overcame the difficulty of having a paralysed hand was to put everything on my desk on the right," she explains. "I also discovered different ways of cooking, applying make-up and other everyday tasks that suddenly become tough with one hand." Madeleine found a new set of pots and pans made all the difference in the kitchen. Her new set of pots has removable handles, so she can move the. pots easily. She also experimented until she found ways to apply makeup. But she admits she still hasn't figured out hair styling or manicures. Having suffered a stroke at a relatively young age, Madeleine says attitude is a big factor in terms of recovery. She says a sense of humour helps overcome the everyday challenges, and it also helps to look at the world, "One day at a time". Still working as a travel agent and travelling when she gets the chance, Madeleine Service is living proof of how advances in stroke research and education; funded by the Heart and Stroke Foundation of B.C. & Yukon, are against stroke and enjoy life. m hsbs mmm 20 THE ALDERGROVE STAR.

W§& ASK ANNABELLE Dear Readers, There have been many reports on how much time during our life we have spent working, sleeping, eating etc. I have one on sitting. It came to me in a flash last week as I sat here sewing. My husband had gone fishing overnight with a pal and I had enough leftovers for dinner so I didn't have to cook. So I sat, and sat, for several hours at a time sewing and thinking about last year when I couldn't sit because of a back operation. All I could do for almost that whole year was stand up or lie down. I was starting to feel sorry for myself and then it struck me: How many years did I sit as a child, how many years did I sit at school, five to six hours a day five days a week: For 13 years: Then there is university for four to six years, there's homework, on Sunday there's church, there's movies, picnics, barbecues, ball games, theatre, buses, trains, planes and automobiles, television, bingo, dances (if you're a wallflower), -park benches, subways, Skytrains, ferries, PTA meetings, doctors' office, dentists' office, restaurants, bicycles, horses and if you are are a politician, a lot of fences. You ask people to sit down to dinner but then you confuse your kids by telling them to sit up. When I was a child I always wondered how far was up when all I wanted to do was eat I still haven't figured that one out. You can have a sit-in, sit-down on the job, baby-sit, and if you can't stand for. something then for goodness sake, sit down. Why cant we say: sit up and be counted, sit up and cheer, sit up for your friends and if we're naughty how much better to hear, go and sit in the comer. . We are the only creatures on earth who can sit in a chair and have our feet touch the floor. Dogs and cats can sit in chairs but their legs stay underneath them and, besides, that, what are they doing in a chair in the first place? I wont stand for it. Then there was the lady who arrived slightly late for church service one Sunday. The minister, about to give his sermon, noticed several empty seats at the front of the church. Motioning to her he said, "Sit down in front." With all eyes on her she made her way down the aisle while the minister continued saying, "Sit down in front."

JUNE 11. 1992 SENIORS' NEWS Summer doldrums? Not yet! By MAUDIE MacPHERSON ALDERGROVE - Things are closing off for the summer so I assumed this would be a quiet week. Not so. Many interesting things took place but most enjoyable was the beautiful turkey dinner given O.A.P. members by the Free Evangelical Church. This church group meets each week in our hall so as a token of appreciation we were treated to a fine evening of entertainment. All the remarks I . have heard have been so favorable and enthusiastic over the cordial way we were received. So on behalf of all the OAP members who came out on Tuesday evening I would like to thank the pastor and members of the congregation for their hospitality. *fe**4 Dates to remember in July - On July 2 the picnic at the Sons of Norway Country Club at Hatzic Prairie. Kaare Reierstad is anxious to have those interested sign up, and pay the $6 per person registration fee by Thursday June 25- This is necessary for Kaare to make arrangements for the bus. The second date, July 18 is the Regional picnic hosted by Brookswood and it is only fair all branches show an interest, so lefs get behind Brookswood and support them. There were 48 at the Wednesday dance. The 50-50 went to Doris Neilsen and Chuck Bright. The spot dance was won by Ken Anderson and Marian Qancey. A fellow named George had a birthday and the dancers celebrated the occasion but sorry George I don't know your last name. Saturday dance attendance was smaller, you know these travelling seniors, probably on cruises. The door prizes went to Herb Cunningham and Al Lane. 50-50 to Cliff Souther and Ellie Williams. The spot dances went to Thelma Brunskill and Bill Kozlowski and Hazel Mason and Jim McKabe. Get well cards were went to Charlie Prest and Helen Souther. John and Vi from Guildford were welcomed and another couple from Vernon. Ed and Shirley were back for a return visit. This week coming up the Westernaires will provide the music. The Legion dinner was quite well attended. It was a tasty turkey dinner and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. The Burdens, Flo and Bill, from Osoyoos were there. They are former members of the OAP and are well known in the community. Nice to see you both looking so well. This is the last Legion dinner until fall. Anyone wanting something to do, try an afternoon at Minter Gardens, though perhaps the flowers are not quite so prolific as in July and August, it was nonetheless interesting. Pansies are my favorite flower and just seeing the hundreds of little faces in those flowers was a sight. The general meeting was small — so many people are away at present. There were several things discussed and ironed out. The Strawberry Tea put on by OAP members in conjunction with the Aldergrove Festival Days was one item of business. The tea in the OAP hall Saturday, June 13 will follow the parade. Sandwiches and strawberry shortcake will be served. Price is $300. Hope to see you there. One of the members of the R.C.M.P. gave an interesting talk on safety in the home as well as tips on things to do and be aware of outside the home. Next OAP meeting the first Friday in September. See you at Aldergrove Festival Days. I'm going to take a little time off for the summer and Opal will put in a report on dances and whatever. So, Happy Vacationing all. Think about this "At least you aren't alone when you are frustrated, you are beside yourself." Rene Osenton and Tom Farquhar were chosen Seniors Of The Year.

Here is one of the items: One day, when Bruce was hiding in a mountain glen from King Edward's soldiers, he suddenly heard the sound of baying hounds following his scent. He recognized them instantly as his own pack which the English had loosed and set upon their master's trail. As the sound of baying drew near and near, Bruce suddenly heard the trickling of a mountain rill. He hastened on and leapt into the stream and sped down through the waters. The hounds could not find the scent any longer and Bruce was safe. There is but one way by which man can escape the judgment of God.That is to plunge into the crimson stream that flows from Calvary's tree, where our Lord Jesus Christ had died for our sins. All sin-stains are washed away and there is therefore no condemnation to them which are in the Lord Jesus Christ. It was Bruce's own hounds which were-tracking him down. Our own sins followed after us, calling for judgment, but the blood of Jesus Christ, son of God, or God the Son, cleanseth us from all sin. "'The sins of some men are conspicuous, pointing to judgment, but the sins of others appear later." 1 Timothy 5:24. "Verily, verily, I say unto you. He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life; and shalt not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life." John 5:24.

TJh- oh, he thinks- to himself. Whenever she says "we have problem", he's usually the one in trouble. "Okay," he responds hesitantly, "what did I do?" "Nothing," she replies, chuckling, "unless you ordered this cable TV movie service." He reminds her of their mutual decision to pass on the premium channel. -*8&isg> "That's what I thought," she says. "So why are we getting the channel?" It's a good question. The only thing they can conclude is that someone forgot to disconnect their household when the preview was over. Through no fault of their own they are receiving a valuable service without having to pay for it. "So," the man finally asks, "what's the problem?" , "The problem," the woman replies patiently, "is that we shouldn't be receiving it... If they charged us too much by mistake we'd make sure they knew about it, wouldn't we?" She pauses before hauling out the heavy artillery: "The kids know what's going on, and I worry about the message we're sending if we Immanuel Lutheran Church _C_ 3272 - 272 St., Aldergrove —fsr 8564710 j|l Rsv. Paul Phillips Weekday School Wed., 7 PM Worship Service Sun., 10:30 AM allow this to go on. Are we saying that honesty is relative, and that it's okay to take advantage of .someone else's mistake if it works out in your favor?" Don't you hate it when that happens? You just get settled into a comfortable position of moral apathy, and along comes someone who, in a few words, can reduce the question to a simple case of right versus wrong. &»iSil So guess what? That family's TV isn't connected to a cable movie service anymore. But I think they have something infinitely more fulfilling: self respect. And integrity. And a little more appreciation for what it really means to be honest. Their experience even got our family talking about honesty. And we've come to a couple of interesting conclusions. First, we decided that honesty simplifies life in a world that is growing frighteningly complex. On a superficial level, that means it's a lot easier to keep your facts straight if you always. tell the truth, and there's less stress around the office if you don't haye to worry about justifying your expense account. But more than that. Living honesdy allows us to feel good in the presence of one person who knows for sure if we are honest - ourselves. And it gives us a chance to build relationships on a solid foundation of Confidence, security, dependability and trust.

Please remember that dogs are not allowed to roam free and if you take you dog for a walk ensure that'you "pooper scoop" any deposits. CEMETERY MARKERS Township of Langley Cemetery Bylaw No. 2441 provides that only certain types of markers are allowed to be placed in Langley cemeteries. Before you purchase a cemetery marker, please check with the Cemetery Foreman at 534-5965 or the Municipal Clerk's department to ensure that the marker complies with the Bylaw.

"Women in general have a very positive view about so many of these things," said Donna Dasko, president of Environics. "But what jumps out at you is the difference among the age groups. Young women are much more positive about the change and their experience." Welfare takers keep more VICTORIA - People needing income assistance won't have to cash in as much of their savings to qualify, according to changes announced by social services minister, Joan Smallwood. Single and employable welfare recipients under 55 were previously allowed just $160 in savings. The rest they would have to spend on self-support before receiving welfare. Now they may retain savings of up to $2,500. Persons under 55 with a dependent will be able to keep savings up to $5,000 instead of $1,500. "We can't ask those most in need to deplete their liquid assets," Smallwood said. The savings, she said, would give people "more flexibility and more opportunities to get back into the workforce."

Where can I find somewhere to live? How do I get the "handicapped pension"? I want to go to college, but I'm in a wheelchair, and I can't write; what do I do? These are just a few of the many questions facing adults with physical disabilities. What is cerebral palsy? How does it happen? Why my child?* Who can help me? What about his future? Please help us! These from the parents whose child has just been diagnosed as having c.p. All these questions - and many more — are addressed in the two information manuals that have just been produced by the Cerebral Palsy Association of B.C. The adult information manual is the first of its kind, listing sources of information and services available, but largely unknown, to people with disabilities. Included in the manual are many of the application forms necessary to obtain these services. This loose- leaf binder manual is available free to any adult with cerebral palsy who is registered with the provincial office. The parents' manual, also in loose-leaf format, is replacing the old parents' kit, Raising a Disabled Child. It has been expanded to include many more sources of help available to the families of children with c.p., and is offered free to those families who have registered their child. One of the sources of funding to pay for these manuals is the up-coming Casual Day, June 19. On this day, employee groups from all over North America will be wearing Casual Day buttons with thek casual clothes, in return for a contribution to thek Cerebral Palsy organization. Jim Robson, B.C's favourite sportscaster and voice of the Vancouver Canucks Hockey team, is the honourary chairman of Casual Day '92. Jim would like to see everyone get behind the work of the Cerebral Palsy Association of B.C. by "Getting Casual for a Cause".

Mothers and daughters honored at Women's Aglow By JOAN HOOGENBOOM LANGLEY - At the Langley Women's Aglow Meeting held on May 20 at the Woodshed Restaurant, the theme was honoring mothers and daughters. The Moen family, mother and two daughters, sang several favorite hymns, reminding us of our faith in Jesus. As the guest speaker, Grace Dowker expressed her testimony in relationship with the Scripture text II Chronicles 20:15-18. So often a portion of the Bible will mean something special to us and becomes more meaningful to us over the years. So it was with Grace and she shared the importance of this. scripture to her throughout the past few years. We may go through deep waters but God is faithful. We keep returning to God's promises in the Bible and we will find them more meaningful to us over time. So it is important to remain Standing on the Promises of God. At each meeting there is presented some Biblical truth that we can take home with us, so we welcome all women who wish to know more about Jesus. Our next meeting is held on June 17 at 9=30 a.m. at the Woodshed Restaurant.
