Home Newspaper of Hills 1977 A Division of Canadian Newspapers Company Limited 103 Main St South Georgetown 3E5 Ontario ttll I BOB Editor A time to consider an appreciation To have for instance French rammed down our throat against all reason and by more powerful than are is an act repugnant to all who live with a fundamental principle of tolerance to minorities It is against all reason because it makes wonder how can make someone speak trench if don t want to The better idea is to demonstrate that by speaking French vou will be rewarded Obviously the party to impose its will on is blind to the real nature of things heedless to the needless destruction it causes derelict in its responsibilities and like the Halton board of education due for a day of reckoning School trustees on the board of education have an opportunity tomorrow Thursday to show that won blindly ram the chair manship concept down the throats of secondary schools still organized under the traditional headship con Tomorrow the trustees will be asked to lift from he table a motion Hilts trustee Don Long to leave the organization of high schools as they are until it can objectively be demonstrated which organization will provide a higher quality of education or a lower cost Teachers at Georgetown district high school and eight other high schools organized under the traditional structure have voted against the mandatory imposition of the the embargo by Ontario Secondary School Teachers Federation on applying for chairmanship positions lias been successful The board is- the only one in the province to opt for a system of chairmen in all its schools despite being unaware of the advantages if any School trustees who continue to quash open discussion on the issue are reminded of the words of Rev Gary Morton the board chairman You don have to be sick to gel better but we must be careful that we don make a body sick in the process Should the board not air the issue tomorrow it will Ik a sign of its own illness and though the medicine be bitter it can I be avoided Ihe sooner the board reconsiders Us blind course towards what no one knows the healthier will be its relations with the people it serves and the people it employs and the better example it sets to the students in the school Queens Park- Smith enunciations fuel separatist fires Hi IlllVII Mi- lff ii 1 nitv is living op in but hi

frozen north to ouch our pallid faces with it warmth Apart from the lhal by the time his column appears in print we shall doubtless be buried under vet another 12 Inches of snow one cannot let his first appearance of spring pass unnoticed unheralded It is definitely the silly season As the days become balmy we become barmy kicking up our heels like new colls flinging off our coals opening the windows and delighting in an orgy of excess energy Thoughts of spring mad March bares and caster bunnies brought mind a foolish long ago incident that seems appropriate for this week of general madness at around the age of 12 I kidnapped a rabbit His name was Wilfred Now Wilfred was not one of your ordinary He was possibly the largest rabbit I have ever seen with unques llonably he longest cars Silvery grey in colour he would regard you with a glint of humorous intelligence refuse anything but Ihe choicest of carrots and was generally a pretty amiable fellow as far as rabbits went The major drawback to my friendship with Wilfred was simply he was not mine He belonged to my closest girlfriend who also happened to have a rather tyrannic al grandmother living in the house In the unfathomable way of adults granny promised Wilfred to the local butcher and it was his horrifying turn of events that resulted in the kidnapping of Wilfred My girlfriend and I acting in collusion stuffed Wilfred canvass carry bag and I rapidly headed for a bus stop and home In retrospect 1 think granny knew what I was up to because she Insisted on walking to the bus stop with me thi small talk and my guilty conscience not being made any easier to bear as the heavy Wilfred ungratefully kicked and squirmed My mother took the arrival of a large angry grey unceremoniously dumped on the middk of her carpet with Sht Had developed a certain falabslic altitude toward whatever I might happen to adopt from the animal kingdom no doubt wiih Ihe idea that an assortment of rabbits whitemice fish dogs and hedgehogs were probably a lesser evil for her daughter than boyfriends For four glorious hours Wilfred wa mine but alas much as I would like to end the story happily I Ini there came i knock at he door and there stood granny the red roses bobbing furiously on her hat as she demanded the return of Wilfred vended his and questioned her grand daughter she had to regain rightful possession of her property I can only assume granny did not Lake her promises to butchers lightly Heartsick and filled with the anger of outraged justice I replaced Wilfred in the bag took one final look at his magnificent whiskers stroked bis silky ears for Ihe last time and silent handed him over to his It is While I cannot remember the name or face of one single from those faroff days I have never been able sec an Easter rabbit without fondly remem benng Wilfred Well season I Nothing gained Public works committee chairman Jack wants to use threats to gain compliance by developers to dedicate land for widening of regional roads And if the developers fail to see the logic of helping the region then he proposes the region wield a big stick threatening expropriation or ficulty in gaining approval of sub division agreements when they ap pear before council Mr told the committee it should check assessment on lands and determine the rate of taxation If a developer does not comply with the request for dedication the regional assessment office be called tore assess the land to increase the taxes paid Until the Blair Commission recommendations calling for market value assessment on all properties is implemented re assessment of properties cant be made unless theres been a change in ownership in the area or servicing and made IllsnWVIlTMncI kid Bureau Of The Herald Some lime ago an went into
