And a happy, happy telegram, marked Sans Origine, and Important, from 64 Squadron: "Happy to inform you that your son F/O Smiley W B T is safe and well as prisoner of war. Letter follows." A letter of commiseration from my college presi- dent, when the first "missing" report went out. Final- ly, a letter from a chaplain in England: 'So happy to be able to welcome and chat with your son, on his safe arrival in England." Dated May 25, 1945. People in those days really cared. And I've only skimmed the surface. remember when...? (From page 5) traffic. County officials are asking for comments from council.

All that needs to be done is to convince govern- ments and decision makers. ) The slide presentation showed the usual scenes of Hiroshima: the devastation, the dead and the dying, the radiation burns on children. They were graphic and horrifying. Most people have seen these scenes, in history books, magazines, in television documentaries. But probably the most poignant slide in the presen- tation was one of a healthy, happy youngster holding a sign which read "What to do in case of nuclear at- tack . . . kiss your children goodbye." Essentially, that is what it all comes down to. In case of nuclear attack, not only will you kiss your children goodbye, you will kiss this planet goodbye. That's why average men and women are meeting in church basements; that's why they are planning to tell their governments that enough is enough. Stop the nuclear arms race and start a balanced reduction of nuclear weapons. That's simple enough.

Jerome Taylor, MAYOR a a ARES 5 31 SR TAY RANDY \ Va SEALS Wins top award at Winter Fair Nineteen year old Brad Howsam of Greenbank last week won the Lawara Farms Trophy as top Junior showman at the Royal Winter Fair. Brad won the competition beating 71 other hopefuls, most of them from Ontario and Quebec. Being judged the top Junior showman at the world famous Royal Winter Fair in Toron- to was quite an achievement for Brad, and he said he still "could not quite believe it all" during an interview with the Star two days later. Brad has won awards for showing his own dairy cattle and calves at fairs in Port Perry, Beaverton and Lind- say, and this year was the se- cond time he had entered the competition at the Royal. In dairy cattle competi- tions, the art and skill in showing an animal properly in front of the judge is very important. Brad says it is crucial that a showman keep the animal, looking alert during the competition. And how does a showman do that? Brad says by talking, even whistling to the animal and knowing when to give the halter a tug. For winning the competi- tion, Brad received a silver tray, trophy, cash award and of course, a bright red ribbon. He will not, however, be back at the Royal next year to defend his title, as one of the competition rules stipulates that previous winners are no longer eligible to enter. Whelan to speak at Liberal meeting Federal Agriculture Minister Eugene Whelan will be the Guest Speaker at the annual fund-raising dinner to be held by the Durham- Northumberland Liberal Association, November 24 in Bowmanville. It is expected that Whelan will address a crowd of about 100 people at the Flying Dutchman Motor Hotel. "Mr. Whelan confirmed his acceptance of our invita- tion when I spoke with him this weekend in Ottawa," said association president Bill Gorsline of Port Hope. 2) BASICS OF ART 8 LESSONS $59.00 FOR MATURE ARTISTS 8 LESSONS $49.00 FOR JUNIOR ARTISTS istiniton by Leslie A.
