Heed Chad adn BANGER ET LT 10B - PORT PERRY STAR - Tuesday, June 12, 1990 - Campaign for endangered spaces needs support World Wildlife Fund is calling on Members of Ontario's Legislative Assembly to help pro- tect the province's remaining wilderness areas. WWE is requesting that provin- cial legislators endorse The Cana- dian Wilderness Charter---the mission statement of Endangered Spaces---a campaign designed to secure a network of represen- tative protected areas by the year 2000 The charter calls for: govern- ment, industries, environmental groups and individual Canadians to commit to a national effort to establish at least one represen- tative protected area in each of the natural regions of Canada by the year 2000. This will mean the protection of at least 12 percent of Canada's lands and waters, a guideline sug- gested by the World Commission on Environment and Development. The Ontario government has divided the province into 65 natural regions and preliminary analysis suggests that 32 of these are adequately represented by protected areas. However, there is no action plan or timetable for protecting representative samples of the remaining 33 natural regions. Formulating and completing a Arthritis attacks all ages The term 'arthritis' is defined as the inflammation of a joint. It is widely used to describe more than 115 different conditions that can cause aching and pain in the body's joints and connective tissues. In all its forms, arthritis affects more than 3.7 million Canadians. Arthritis can attack men, women and children of all ages, but usually appears after 40. While many aches and pains are normal and soon pass, any pattern--always in a certain joint, always when getting out of bed-- may signal the condition. If this pattern fits you or any member of your family, consult your doctor immediately. The earlier the diagnosis, the better the final result will be. The most common forms are osteoarthritis, rheumatoid ar- thritis and gout. Disability can be prevented in about four of five cases, even for rheumatoid pa- tients, the most seriously affected. But because the causes of ar- thritis have yet to be identified, complete cure of all cases re- mains a goal. There are laws to protect us from 'miracle' cures made by unqualified people. Before buying a pain remedy for a self-diagnosed problem, ask your pharmacist for advice. He or she is qualified to recognize the early warning signs of arthritis. If medication is prescribed, your pharmacist can follow up with any further information you require. However, your success in fighting arthritis depends on more than the treatment your doctor prescribes. You are the most im- portant part of the treatment team. Become involved and follow your prescribed treatment program faithfully. Township of Scugog PUBLIC NOTICE provincial system of protected areas by the year 2000 should be high on the environmental agen- da of the Ontario Government. With no provincial strategy to protect 33 of Ontario's natural regions, it is crucial that this be done now. We urge Ontario's MLAs to voice their support for. The Canadian Wilderness Charter and for a Cabinet commitment to complete the provincial system of protected areas by the year 2000. World Wildlife Fund has for- warded each member of the On- tario Legislature a copy of the book Endangered Spaces: The Future for Canada's Wilderness. The book, which is co-operative effort of WWF, the Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society and Key Porter Books, is being distributed to all of Canada's federal, provincial and territorial legislators. It pulls together con- tributions by 21 leading conserva- tionists and 40 nature photographers from across the country and documents the cur- rent issues regarding the protec- tion of wild lands and waters in every region of Canada. The Endangered Spaces cam- paign has been endorsed by 125 conservation organizations from across Canada. Recently, the Hon. Lucien Bouchard, Federal Minister of the Environment, lent his support to the campaign by pledging to complete the national parks system by the year 2000. The people of Ontario have shown they care about this issue. In 1987, Ontario residents spent $1.6 billion on wildlife related ac- tivities. A 1987 Gallup poll show- ed 96 percent support govern- ment action to protect wildérness.

The absolute deadli to designate the lands and buildings known as the "Head Church and Cemetery" as a property of historical and /or architechural value or interest under the Ontario Heritage Act, R.S.O. 1980, c. 337. STATEMENT OF REASONS FOR THE PROPOSED DESIGNATION: Pioneers of the "Head" Community (the southern third of Scugog Island) received ministerial services from the Methodist Episcopal Minister who held meetings on the Island during the 1840's and 1850's. Following a meeting in the 1850's, there was a decision to form a Church and Sunday School. : | | | | _ In 1860, sufficient funds ($677.00) had been collected to build a | church proper and a shed for horses and carriages. In 1905, the | congregation built a porch and cement walk and the tea room was added in 1914. | | Regular services ceased in 1959 and the "Head Church" came under the care of the Scugog Shores Historical Museum in 1969. The Head United Church Women's Group and the Museum now preserve the Church. The main features of the Church remain the same today. The church proper, the enclosed porch and the tea room together with the win- dows, casements, floor and pews are original. Other rural churches which have experienced closings have donated their historically significant treasures for interior use. The location and appearance are the same. The ground level building with simple lines and white clapboard remains a sanctified church. ANY PERSON MAY within thirty (30) days of the 12th day of June, 1990, serve by registered mail or personally deliver to the Clerk of the Corporation of the Township of Scugog, notice of objection to the proposed designation, together with a statement of the reasons for the objection and all relevant fact.
