Orono Weekly Times, Wednesday, August 20,2003 - 3 15H 'i ■fly \ m ü if ii Mwii eu mu Biüji i un In this part of the world, we are indeed fortunate to enjoy a four season cycle--winter, spring, summer and fall. It Comes to pass without fail every year and is somewhat evenly divided into quarters. This came to mind last ; week when out on the trail hiking hiking and viewing the summer : wild flower blooms. The present present display of blooms are in the open field areas whereas: in the , early spring the flowering of wild plants was taking place in interior wooded areas and along shaded road sides. In early spring, our attention attention was drawn to the bloom of Trilliums, Jack-in-the-Pulpits, and Trout Lilies. These are residents residents of forested areas. ; The clock however always -; keeps ticking and we how find ?*■ that we are well into summer with wild flowers showing up in the open fields amongst the grasses. High on my list of favourites is thé frizzed bloom of the Purple Beigamont and certainly we cân add the Black- Eyed Susan along with, the white variety. There is also the pink of the Knapweed plant and the tall-standing Mullen with its yellow seed head. The varieties of Aster flowers flowers is somewhat of a challenge to separate but they do make their presence conspicuous and are now showing off their particular particular colours and structures. There is a reason. I'm changing the subject at this point. Three volunteers, Don Lycett, Doug Ferguson and Gary Ross, of the Clarington Trail Association spent a half day last week sprucing up portions portions of the Bluebird Trail and Murray Yeo Trail.

Marrion Johnston, a teacher with the Trillium Lakelands District School Board, has been elected to the Executive of the Elementary Teachers' Federation of Ontario (ETFO). The election took place at ETFO's Annual Meeting in Toronto. "I have been a local leader for many years. I now want to work on behalf of ETFO members members across the province. Together we will promote public public education, protect collective bargaining rights of teachers, continue the fight against recertification, promote the importance of ETFO with our new members, and use our resources to meet the needs of all of our members," Johnston told the 600 delegates attending attending the meeting. "In everything we do we must reflect the needs and aspirations aspirations of our members. Our professional development must be - member driven 'and relevant. relevant. No one should be forced to be on perpetual probation and yet this is what the government government is doing to teachers. The recertification program is an insult to each and every one of our members. "We need to stand together to make ETFO and public education, education, in Ontario the best it can be, for our members and for our students," said Johnston. Johnston, who has lived in Orono for 19 years, has been a teacher for over 25 years. She is currently the full-time vice- president of the Trillium Lakelands Elementary Teachers' Teachers' Local. The Elementary Teachers' Federation of Ontario (ETFO) represents 65,000 public ele- mentaiy school teachers and education workers across Ontario and is the largest teacher union in Canada outside outside of Quebec. Jaworski Continued from page 2 a greater gain in the future. So too with the lenders. No pleasure now, more pleasure later. We seem to hate the lenders, however, which is a consequence of the physical fallacy. They do nothing, really, really, except change the time structure of money. They allow others to bring capital to bear in the present, and await their enrichment later. Intertemporal employment, if you will. Nevertheless, the process is necessary and valuable. It allows those who value current money more than others to get at that money-a valuable service. service. Those who value present money a little less can make exchanges. In this way, we approximate actual time-preferences time-preferences of various actors on the market, and manage to satisfy more values, wants, needs and desires. r Every Wednesday afternoon to August 27 Tea on the Bowmanville Museum Verandah - noon to 3 p.m. at 37 Silver St., Bowmanville Thursdayi August 21 Orono Summer Concert Series presents Clarington Concert Band - 7 p.m. Library lawn.
