Tickets were sold on a % by Charles Heavysege University of Toronto Press - Toronto Charles Heavysege (1816-76), a major North American dramatist and poet, was the leading intellect of English Quebec during the pre-confederation period. He was born in Huddersfield, Yorkshire, England, into a Puritan working class family, who regarded his literary interests with suspicion, especially his father. In orie of the author's letters he wrote, I was what is usually styled religiously brought up, and, though my works are dramatic, taught to consider not only the theatre itself, but dramatic literature even in its best examples, as forbidden things. Hence, when a boy, it was only by dint of great persuasion that I covently obtained from my mother some few pence weekly for a cheap edition of Shakespeare that was then being issued in parts. * At the age of nine his formal schooling came to an end when he was apprenticed to a trade as cabinet maker. For the remainder of his life he worked from ten to thirteen hours daily. Therefore his creative writing was confined to brief intervals of leisure, or when he found it possible to compose in his head while working at his carpenter’s bench. In 1853, ten years after his marriage to Mary Ann Oddy, he emigrated to Canada establishing himself permanently in Montreal, where he worked at his trade before turning to newspaper journalism. Probably hoping to make a better living for his wife and large family as a journalist, he later regretted having made the change because he had been in the habit of composing while working at his woodcarving. “But in Victorian Canada newspaper work was considered ‘genteel’ and the manual labour of woodworking was not.” Something in the Canadian environment stimulated Heavysege to increased literary activity. During his first fifteen years in Canada he published two long verse dramas — Saul (1857) and Count Filippo (1860); three long narrative poems - The Owl (1864), Jephthah’s Daughter (1865) and Jesebel (1867); and a novel, The Advocate. A self-educated man his inspiration came from his reading of thje Bible, Shakespeare’s Plays, and Milton’s Poetry and from nature and music. A daughter recalled, He loved Canada’s beautiful maple trees, her gorgeous autumn leaves, her silent country, and the snow. Hfc had a violin — a sort of safety x valve for pent-up feeling. His love Idf music is shown in Saul He would join our little family c<ÿicerts for a few moments, throwing in his rich, deep voice, then wjbuld slip away again to his writings and proof-sheets. A lonely writer striving hard for excellence in style he spent m(ich of his life in literary isolation.

Of these, 61 (including Canada) make enough to sell to other countries. It is true that Canada by itself produces one third of all pulp and paper sold in world export markets. It is also true that Canadian mills and paperworkers set world standards for quality. But the hard fact is, additions to pulp and paper manufacturing capacity are being built all over the world. Competition is tough out there. Canada’s industry is continuing to invest in updated and more efficient mills and other facilities to keep costs down. The competition for world markets will be won by the low-cost producers.

The headline reads “Mesh playpens can kill babies, Ottawa warns”. And the article explains that a baby can become enmeshed in the fold of the pen if the sides are left down. I don’t know who would leave a baby in a pen with the sides folded down, but apparently people do, and four recent deaths in the States have resulted. It is wise of Ottawa to remind everyone of this danger and the main message, as I see it, is that whenever anything is used in the wrong way it can be harmful. Using a knife for a screwdriver, or your hand for a hammer, or pushing yourself or others too hard, these are some of the ways of using things the wrong way and inviting disaster. Another way to sure calamity is the misuse of government. The purpose of government is to enable things to be done as a group which couldn’t be done by individuals. From such a noble and humble beginning we have evolved governments that seem to want to rule every aspect of life. Maybe you don’t see the parallel between misusing a playpen to let a baby suffocate and misusing government to let a society suffocate, but it is very clear to me. It wasn’t the playpen that killed those babies, it was the way it was used. Government itself won’t destroy the people, but the way it is used can do just that. 9l\9 A weekly newspaper, founded in 1883, published every Wednesday at Pontiac Printshop Box 430, Shawville, Quebec JOX 2Y0 Annual subscription: Pontiac County $10, elsewhere in Canada $14, outside Canada $25.

Also, it perfectly expresses the purposes of the present editors and publishers in the month of June, 1983, exactly one hundred years after it was written. The only change we might make would be the reference to the Liberal-Conservative party of Canada. In the context of today's politics, this would now read, “Liberal, Conservative, and New Democratic Parties of Canada”. Even before the first date of publication, the editors and proprietors were the recipients of considerable criticism: vile attacks from those who were untiring in their attempts to destroy any hopes for success in the field of journalism. Despite this opposition, the two men persisted, supported by their confidence in an intelligent public. p.c. convention forecast These first owners stated in their first editorial that they were not subject to any political pressure, that they Here is the editorial by Smith and Cowan, dated June 7th, 1883 : PROSPECTUS by James Loken Today the delegates of the Conservative Party are gathering in Ottawa to elect a national leader. More than likely they will choose one of the three front-runners — Joe Clark, Brian Mulroney, or John Crosbie. One of the more interesting aspects of the race is that after months of hard campaigning, É these three remain more or less where they started, in first, & second and third place respectively. ^ The other four serious candidates - Peter Pocklington, the £ flamboyant populist of the right, David Crombie, the last of |É the Red Tories, Michael Wilson, the earnest stockbroker, and g John Gamble, the nemesis of Joe Clark, whose dogged pursuit ¦ of a leadership review brought the whole thing about, remain B far behind. The dark horse candidate coming up the middle P between the deadlocked factions to final ballot victory is more 1 mythical than real. But hope springs eternal in the most obscure candidate and besides, who had heard of Joe Clark in 1976? If they are unlikely to win though, these four candidates by throwing their support to one of the front-runners, can influence the final result. We take great pleasure today in presenting the public with the first number of THE EQUITY newspaper, to which we cordially invite its attention. In making our appearance in the journalistic arena, we do so deeply cognizant of the responsibility which attaches to that position. A definition of the word which we have chosen for the name of our journal at once suggests the course it is our intention to pursue: Equity - that virtue which treats all persons according to the rules of reason and justice -an adherence to which, it must be admitted, is no very easy task; and, if through mis judgement or indescretion, our efforts to do so prove futile, the indulgence of a discerning public is solicited. In local affairs THE EQUITY purposes taking a most active part. Believing that the interests of the inhabitants of the County of Pontiac stand paramount to all others, we will consider it our first duty to advocate and protect those interests and to further this end, our columns will be open to those who choose to discuss matters identical with them. Being firmly convinced of the wisdom and excellence of the policy pursued by the leaders of the Liberal-Conservative party of Canada in managing the affairs of this country, and believing that to the great measures they have introduced is mainly due the cause of our prosperous cpndition today, the columns of this journal will be devoted to the interests of that party. Matters which have no immediate connection with our county or provincial affairs, and with which we do not presume to be familarly acquainted, will receive such consideration as we deem it prudent to give. Our express object is to supply our readers with a good local paper, and in carrying out this aim, we respectfully ask their assistance and support.

For the candidates the Convention is a grueling ordeal. One careless mistake or off-hand remark can sabotage months of hard work.

Portelance not die from the buffetting from the rocks as he hurtled One June morning in 1840 i two French Canadian hunters, • Pierre Dubois and Jean < Portelance, were camping j seven miles north of Ryan I Chute, on the Du Moine « River. They were celebrating j the beauty of spring and i singing some ancient songs. ; Dubois filled his pipe and i about to examine their traps 1 while Portelance cleaned the 1 rifles. Just as Dubois lit bis pipe an Iroquois appeared , carrying a large bundle of beaver skins which he had intended to sell down-river on the Ottawa. He offered them at a bargain price to the two white men and they made a deal. Had the white man noticed the malicious grins on the faces of the Indians they might not have been so willing. Soon afterwards the Iroquois disappeared into the woods, Dubois moved off as planned to examine his traps ‘and Portelance continued to clean and load his rifle, leaning it up against a tree while he proceeded to clean ‘his partner's gun. A sudden voice at very close range caused him to look up. Just then a group of eight Algonquins appeared, and as he knew their leader he addressed him, saying, "Goodmorning Eagle Feather, what brings you all here? Anything serious?" Mee.

You will recall there were eight Algonquins in the group.

As the horse ages the ligament ossifies; that is, the ligament is replaced by bone and the three bones fuse (Figure 2). During ossification of the ligament there may be inflammation and pain. Jumping, running and working a horse during this time period produces further irritation. Splints usually occur in horses two to five years old. Most often the U elimbs are affected, rarely do splints occur in the hindlimbs. In older horses, the splint bones are fused solidly to the cannon bone. The majority of splint problems occur on the medial side (inside) of the forelimbs. The medial splint bone is usually the one affected because it has a flat surface next to the knee. The lateral (outer) splint bone has a more slanted surface. When the weight is transmitted to these bones, the medial splint bone probably bears more weight than the lateral splint bone. career earnings over one million dollars.
