Bank hours are presently from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Tuesdays and from 2-5 p.m. on Fridays, though these will be extended as the need arises. The new Toronto Dominion Bank in Pontypool was a busy place on opening day Tuesday, May 18th. Here, manager John Snushall helps out two of the first visitors to the branch.

With the aid of slides, Penny told of other highlights of ier trip During a moment of peace and quiet in the House, she had her photo taken in the Speaker's chair, usually oc- cupied by James Jerome. By prior arrangement, each of the students met with their local member of parliament, and consequently Penny and Durham M.P. Allan Lawrence shared views on a number of issues over dinner. She wasn't able to pin Mr. Lawrence down about whether or not he. would conduct a poll of his constituents on the capital punishment issue, though he personally favors-retention of the death penalty. The students also heard speeches by Senator Eugene Forsey, N.D.P. House Leader Stanley Knowles, ex-finance Minister John Turner and Solicitor - General Warren Allmand. An extra special moment during Penny's trip occured when she personally met Governor - General Jules Leger. Many of the delegates were from the province of Quebec and early problems in com- munications were overcome by the.use of sign language. At the end of the week, Penny said, both French and English students were quite proficient -- with a little bit of improvis- ation, they were even sharing jokesand singing songs to- gether. During their final night in Ottawa, the group was so harmonious that no one want- ed to end the new friendships by going to bed. And since she's returned to Courtice, Penny has resolved to learn French "even if it kills me."

Allot56,OOO After the hospital board brief was submitted to the Ministry of Health, the hos- pital's budget was re-negoti- ated with the $56,000 increase resulting. In a letter to Mr. David A. Brown, Port Perry Hospital Administrator, The Ministry of Health expressed every confidence that the new bud- get would be a practical solution to community mem- orial hospital needs. The Ontario Ministry of Health will increase spending allotments to the community Memorial Hospital in Port Perry this year by $56,000 over the initial 1976 budget im- provements. William G.

Regional In mid-March, 400 high school students from across Canada gathered in Ottawa for a week long course which one parliamentary press cor- respondent described as "so intensive that it would make an M.P.'s head swim." The venture is called "The Forum for Young Canadians" and in order to be eligible to attend the conference, a potential candidate has to be 16 or 17 years of age, possess a high academic standing and have a keen interest in public affairs. Penny White, a year four student at Courtice Secondary School, fit the bill. As it turned out, she was the only repre- Prejudies sentative in Ottawa for the Northumberland and New- castle Board of Education. Jüdging by her recent, presentation to the Bowman- ville Lions Club about the trip, Penny was an excellent choice. An enthusiastie speaker, she spoke highly of the experience and expressed thanks to the Lions for sponsoring her involvement. According to Penny, one of the most important lessons learned during the week was that students who arrived in Ottawa with prejudices about others from various parts of the country "went home totally unbiased." While differences fell by the wayside, the students followed a gruelling agenda which included several addresses from prominent leaders, guid- ed tours through many of Ottawa's historical buildings and numerous discussions about important issues of the day. The group stayed at Ash- bury College, which was established in 1890 and then moved to new quarters in 1912. Penny's room-mates for the week were two girls from Alberta and Newfoundland. Though there was 20 feet of snow in the capital at the time of the conference, the students managed to visit numerous places of interest, including THE PROGRESSIVE CONSERVATIVE PARTY OF ONTARIO The chance to say what you care about, what you stand for, and what concerns you, is the most important part of being a citizen.
