There were many people who worked behind the scenes to bring the fashion show to fruition. One of the most important con- tributors Fairweather and Big Steel Man. They supplied the fabulous clothes which the models of Anderson sported. Teachers, also, played an important role in the production of Festival de Mode II. Mr. Reiart and Mr. Kosurko supervised, while Mr. Uranowski was in charge of the music. There were the lighting crew, those who helped dress and un- dress the models, the prop and scenery designers, ticket sellers and, of course, the thirty models. There were many people behind the scenes who have not been mentioned, but without their help and co-operation, the fashion show would not have been so successful. There was an over- whelming response to an announcement asking for models for the annual fashion show. Seventy-five girls and 15 boys showed up THE CORPORATION OF THE TOWN OF WHITBY NOTICE OF INTENTION TO CHANGE THE NAME OF A STREET TAKE NOTICE that the Council of the Corporation of the Town of Whitby intends to pass a by-law to change the name of Hanover Street to Hanover Court.

Sponsored by the WHITBY MINISTERIAL ASSOCIATION Speaking to You By SCOTT FENNELL (PC - Ontario) The Speech from the Throne, which opened the. first session of the thirty-third Parliament, anuoun- ced the formation of a special task, force on parliamentary reform. The task force will be lead by Jim McGrath, M.P. for the Newfoundland riding of St. John's East, who has previously served as vice-chairman of a parliamentary committee that produces 10 reports on how to improve the operation of the Commons. The central focus of this task force will be the enhancement of the role of the private member. Since members are the voice of the people, this means that the people of Canada will be better represented in Parliament. As it is now, many Canadians feel that our Parliament is losing its credibility as an essential institution, able to protect the people from excesses in government spending and taxation. Many decisions are made by ministers without thorough consultation with the representatives of the majority of Canadians. It is important for Members of Parliament to be better informed with regard to both the proposed and actual spending of the government. This means that they must have access to timely information. They must have appropriate procedures including more effective techniques for obtaining information and for examining ministers and civil servants and they must be properly organized so thit they are able to digest and use this information in decision making. Currently, members of the committees which are established for the purpose of studying proposed legislation and government requests for funds, are not provided with enough information so that the in- dividual committees are unaware of how a specific proposal fits into the government's plan in total. There is also the problem of timing. Briefly, committees receive the main estimates for what the government intends to spend in the next fiscal year, in February of the current year, and are given until May to study the proposed spending plans. In a normal business situation, the directors would wish to compare these estimates with the Most recent and complete information available regarding the actual spending for the current year before making a decision. Committees, however, do not have ac- cess to such information until six months after the estimates have been 15assed. Thus, they lose their potential to ensure that sound financial management is practised by the government The reform will come about under this gover. nment will see members of Parliament acting in the same capacity as directors of corporations. In this way, parliamentarians (the voice of the people) wlll have more influence in matters affecting the people. This is what Canadians are calling fr. By THE REV. KEITH A. ELFORD Pastor Whitby Free Methodist Church The maestro mounts the conductors stand. The baton is raised. The concert begins! It's a master piece that will demand every musician's full con- tentration. The runs and trills are complex, the tempo is fast and timing must be precise. All of a sudden, the music stops abruptly in the middle of a building crescendo. In the awkward silence the con- ductors cries, "Where's the piccolo?" From time to time, or all the time, for that mat- ter, like the piccolo player, we may think that our part in building God's kingdom is rather unimpor- tant. As far as we can see on the music of life, there's very little for us to play. It may be that it seems that all there is for us to do is to count rests. But that's only as far as we can seel Today's demands may be tedious but when we "r turn the page into next week there may be a very complex solo part for us to play. We need to be alert and ready. You see, living for Jesus, we must remember, is not a constant repetition of a well rehearsed piece, but a daily sight reading of His Will. Let's be poised for the Master's baton whether we're counting rests or launching into a solo performance where we really must shine.
