The course was conducted by Dominique Lemieux, a : professional depth counsel- lor from Toronto. Parent Effectiveness Training (P.ET.) was conceived by a Californian clinical psycholigist Thomas Gordon who felt that pa- rents need to be trained in discharging the responsib- ilities of parenthood. Dr. Gordon's ideas are explained in a book he wrote "Parent Effective- ness Training" published by Peter H. Wyden, Inc. According to Dr. Gordon most parents adopt either an authoritarian or permis- sive attitude in dealing with their children. Dr." Gordon suggests a new method which he calls the 'no lose' method under which neither parents nor children 'win'. Dr. Gordon began giving classes 'in parent education in California in the early sixties. Today several thou- sand instructors provide the training all over the U.S. and Canada. By 1975 over a quarter million parents will have taken the training. The course covers prac- tically every area of parent child conflict and attempts to provide an approach that establishes better commun- ication and leaves both par- ties happy and tension free. The Scugog ladies who took the course in Port Perry are: Mrs. Mary Pear- sell, Prince Albert; Mrs. Camille McGill, Seagrave; .Mrs. Gail Chellew, Port Perry; Mrs. Judy Mac- Coll, Port Perry; Mrs. Penny Toye, Port Perry; Mrs. Kathy Chambers, Port _ Perry and Mrs. Phillys Car- riere, Port Perry. The course costs $40. per persons for 8 sessions held once a week for 3 hours. The charge for couples is $75. Gasoline can be dangerous Did you know that 40 gallons of gasoline, vapori- zed and mixed proportion- ately in air, have the explo- sive potential of 240 pounds of dynamite? Because they evaporate quickly and mix with air, gasoline vapors are particularly hazardous. In the right proportions,the mixture can explode with the flip of a light switch. "While we have been able to 'tame' gasoline for inter- nal combustion engines, many people continue to gamble by using it for unin- tended -- and potenti- ally dangerous -- purpo- ses," says Don Brown, gen- eral manager of the Farm Safety Association. Keeping gasoline away from open flames isn't the only precaution people need to take to prevent explo- cade pools 451 Queen St. Prince | Albert,0Ont. 985-7605 sions and fires. For exam- ple, gasoline is not . .eant to be a cleaning fluid. It should not be used to clean floors, clothing and machin- ery parts. Neither should it be used to start fires in brush, trash piles or bri- quettes. Many gasoline accidents occur during refueling. Al- ways turn off the motor on tractors, trucks and machinery before filling the tank. Gasoline - powered tools such as lawnmowers and chainsaws should not be refilled when they are hot. Even supposedly 'empty' tanks and drums can be dangerous; the gasoline might be gone but the explo- sive vapors remain. Exces- sive heat, electrical and welding sparks can all cause the drum or tank to explode. .
