mississauga news r editorials three schools are needed the summitview school problem may finally be coming to a head with the york board of education preparing its new budget priorities in january a group of summitview parents are planning to visit the board to make their opinions known this group probably will request that renovations at the school be delayed no longer believing that under the present circumstances their children are not getting equal education they have a point in terms of facilities summitview does not match other elementary schools in town particulary when it comes to a gym or auditorium the crucial issue and a problem that has been slowing board action is whether or not a new school planned for the dulverton sub division in north stouffville would make summitview obsolete anyway if it would then summitview renovations would be wasted the proposal the parents apparently will put forward is that both schools should be used in the future and that renovations at sum mitview should proceed immediately its a suggestion well worth consideration besides the shortterm benefits of having adequate recreation and classroom space several other advantages come to mind one is that by keeping the summitview building in use all grade 8s could then be accommodated within the elementary schools rather than sending them to secondary school a desire thats been expressed by a number of parents another advantage could be that three rather than two schools in town would allow each to be a bit more personal in nature and furthermore the summitview building has historical and architectural value that might warrant saving it if at all possible in any case the york board needs to come to grips with the situation and make a decision soon on whether summitview will be retained in the future or not solving the limitations of the building ought to be close to the top of the boards building priorities since as so often happens the squeaky wheel gets the grease a strong represen tation by summitview parents along with our new trustee could very well help the board to comprehend the seriousness of the situation bible d thought for the 3 week from the living bible even as peter was saying these things the holy spirit fell upon all those listening the jews who came with peter ft were amazed that the gift of the holy spirit would be given to gentiles too but there could be no doubt about it for they heard them speaking in tongues and praising god peter asked can anyone object to my baptizing them now that they have i received the holy spirit just as we did so he did baptizing them in the name of jesus the messiah acts 104448 trading is the easiest way rough time for socialists i socialism is hurting in canada as it is in other democratic countries around the world as canadians see larger and larger chunks of their paycheques being whittled away by socialist- schemes they are beginning to wonder to merely have divided poverty does not appeal to a great many who still have the incentive to work hard and prepare to take care of themselves when economies are booming the high costs of socialism are not so noticeable but with economies in the doldromes in many parts of the world the huge bills just cant be met britain is a prime example of a country gone too far in its giveaway programs and where practically only the privatelyowned firms operatein the black sweden too finding the bloom has gone despite the highj standard ofliving thousands have left-the- country and thousands more would if they f- could take with thenr their hardearned ulife r savings even an 8000 a year secretary pays over 40 per cent income tax for these socialist frills and the sales tax- believe it or not is 17 per cent such a glorified division of wealth is what ndp dreams are made of such important fair president wins rye title ivan norton has had a busy year the rr 1 goodwood resident has been president of the markham fair that is no mean chore in itself this years fair was the biggest and best so far under his leadership the fair has com pleted the sale of the old fair grounds and closed the deal on the new site on 18th ave but he did have time to farm his 150acre farm on the 4th cone of uxbridge his rye crop was so good that it won him the world championship at the royal winter fair field crop competitions for rye it is the second year in a row that mr norton has won the world title a com mendable achievement indeed and wellmanaged concerns as ontario hydro and the bell telephone company are assailed despite the fact that the services they provide are second to none on this continent or elsewhere v any idea that a socialist government means the disappearance of strikes has been recently dispelled by events in british columbia and other western provinces as wage deductions mount to pay for more and more cradle to grave welfare wage demands also mount and the great in flationary wheel goes on and on just a week ago the british chancellor of the exchequer announced that notonly would britain halt any further socialist programs it would make severe cutbacks in some already in operation here at homeprime minister trudeauhas proclaimed a halt to the ex tension of socialist programs newyork city is another prime example of what can happen when too much is given away it would appear that the gravy train has ground to a halt in many places its a sad blow to those who have been living for years under the illusion that the money supply was neverending and government would always provide there was bound to 6e an end this column could be called all you really wanted to know about selling your car but were afraid to ask since selling my car privately just two weeks ago i have been bursting to tell the story in my column not for any personal glory you un derstand but to perhaps help some other unsuspecting person who is foolish enough to do what i did it all started when i decided to buy a new car because i was dealing on a demonstrator the tradein was much below what i felt the car was worth after all it was barely two years old had only 30000 miles on it and had been driven and maintained with care in other words as far as i could tell it was a good car that was confirmed when i had it certified at a local garage with hardly a wimper the mechanic gave me the cer tificate it was at that point that i realized my first mistake although it wasnt apparent until later i should have gotten it certified afterit was sold i v acertification you must understand has a time limit on it it is only good for 36 days after that runs out the certification must be done all over again thus rule number one certify later rather than now a small ad was placed in the tribune under motor cars for sale which failed to yield overwhelming response my coup de gras was to set the car on the side of the road with a for sale sign on the windshield 30 years ago this week excerpts from the tribune from november 291945 the big broadcast- almost of 1945 since stouffville talent was on the airin a broadcast last year perhaps the idea has lost some of its glamor but certainly not its advertising value now it might be news to report stouffville was to have been on the air again when the gods frowned so heavily on the idea that it was abandoned the reeve was approached by chum station in toronto to give a 10 minute talk on the history and future of stouffville when he was in attendance at york county council last week arrangements were made to have a recording on tuesday but on the eve of the event a terrific wind over toronto blew down the apparatus of the station and rendered the work of recording impossible both the reeve of stouffville and reeve chas hooper of markham had their script ready for reading just when the catastrophe happened and they took it that the gods were not satisfied and mullified their effort to say a word on behalf of the places they represented however our readers need not be surprised if in the very near future when the station mechanism is repaired they again be called on to waft their voices over the air for better or for worse j a york regional police occasionally overlook infractions of the king regulations no charges were laid against the operator or this 2 vehicle who parked his car closer to a fire hydrant than is legally per- mitted this picture was taken in front of york regional police narking regulations no charges were laid against the operator or this headquarters in newmarket john montgomery unfortunately i procrastinated on that for three weeks hoping that the ad would sell the car finally my wife and i washed it and cleaned up the inside it was set on the road shiny bright but unfortunately with a dent in the side ready to go the first offer was from a young girl she was willing to pay 200 for it considering that my original asking price was 2000 you can see that she was not what i would call a serious buyer as time went on i realized that many people love to look at cars that are for sale and enjoy pricing them and finding out about them with absolutely no intention to buy but let me tell you about the dent the car was being used by my wife for her parttime job she was parked in a plaza lot when a post office truck backed into the right side the car had been painted just two weeks before the accident happened before i had decided to sell however a few weeks later rust started to show through the paint job on the hood the body repair shop where the paint job was done agreed to fix that and at the same time gave me an estimate on the dent in the side which the postoffice agreed to pay for if i obtained three estimates thus the car was not in perfect shape for sale plus the fact that the car had been yellow and was painted bright blue unfortunately the inside sections around the doors remained yellow most people who looked at the car this- point i did not realize at the time thought that i had gotten a quick paint job because it had been in an accident in fact i foolishly changed thd color of the car if i left it yellow there would have been no problem as time went on i began to panic somewhat the prospect of owning two cars while somewhat appealing for convenience sake was totally out of the question for economic reasons as the certification expiry date approached i started to have doubts by don bernard about buying a new car perhaps i should sell the new one i started to think a week before the certification was due to expire a young man came to the door and seemed very interested after many half hearted inquiries i could sense he liked the car by this time my asking price had dropped to 1800 that was saturday he called a few days later and we made a deauatsomewhat less than the asking price i might add he was prepared to pay cash and would take the car before the certification expired by tuesday the situation had changed he could not come up with the money and backed off the expiry date came and went and still no buyer at that point i decided to write a slightly more catchy ad for the paper i also decided to put the insurance back on and start to drive the car the very day that i had the insurance put on again a man came to have a look he wanted to drive it and after a test run decided it was a good car he promised to call back tomake things short i can say that he finally agreed to buy fl the car and the deal was signed sealed and delivered i must say that i received more for the car than i was offered as a tradein the final price was considerably below my asking price however along the way i found out that there are many strange things done body shops are some of the most flybymight operations there are good ones but dont ask me how you can tell if they are good or not when changing the ownership the person lling the car should make the change to insure that the ownership is changed and the tax paid otherwise the new owner could driven the car for weeks without changing the ownership an accident would put the responsibility on the original owner the other pointis that if you intend to sell a car do so before you buy a new one in most cases it will take some time the best advice i could offer is trade it in it surely is the simplest way to get rid ofacar lost in the fog by annegret laaaurb early one foggy morning i knocked at my friends door arent you coming to the market she was still in her pinkflowered pyjamas you mean youre really going out in all that fog i thought the trip was off oh its never as bad on the main roads i said optimistically the cars sort of stir it up she looked doubtful anyway he best bargains are gone before eight thus convinced she was soon sitting in the car the fog sure is thick she said ap prehensive again how can you see where youre going well i havent turned on the headlights yet i flicked the switch the beam of light penetrated at least two feet into the fog we inched along and even- tually arrived at the main road it too was obscured by billowing white listen said my friend we could go next week you mean i got up at this beastly hour for nothing you must be joking we made the turn and crept along on and on we went making our way in terminably through a milky tunnel thai always seemed about two feet deep reminds me of the time i got trapped in the bedclothes as a baby i said ner vously everything endlessly white and no way out suddenly claustrophobia choked hie would we ever find our way out of this stuff i wished fervently for mothers hands to part and lift away the stifling white blanket i think were lost i said aloud even travelling at this pace we should have been there long ago my friend agreed lets stop at the next farmhouse and find out where we are great idea if only we could find a house in the obscuring mist finally we came to a large driveway and decided to follow it blindly sure enough it led us to a large house the door was flung open joyfully before we could knock im so glad you could come said the rotund motherly figure beaming at us welcome to our bazaar we must have looked totally bewildered im so glad someone braved the fog she hastened to explain you have no idea what a relief it was to hear you coming up the drive there are fiftynine very sad old people here all terribly disappointed becauseno one came to their bazaar youre a real godsend my friend and i exchanged glances we are happy to come i said we admired the many items on display snacked on the delicious home baking chatted with the residents and browsed through the white elephant table finally arms laden we started for home could you tell us where we are i asked our kind hostess smiled you mean b havent the foggiest just outside of uxbridge she laughed a great light beginning to dawn where were you headed it doesnt matter i said we came to the right place when we stepped outside the fog had lifted more people were coming up the drive and there was a promise of sunshine women said my husband later when i showed him my treasures they set out to buy apples but god only knows what theyll bring home yes i said quietly thats so
