Large-Scale Slurping (Reprinted from the twice-weekly Creston Valley Advance.) : “Close-mouthed"’ doesn't begin to : describe the actions of some of our civil iservants these days. Consider three recent 2 cases in point: * At least 15 federal judges from Quebec Zare holed up in the Sayshore Inn in ‘Vancouver brushing up on thelr English. : ° But the two-week junket is supposed to be a Tsecret and tour guide Roger Collette, himself a senior official for federal judicial “affairs, refused to divulge any detalls of the ‘trip, including how much it's costing the xpayers. ‘Interviewed by the Vancouver Province, he at first said that it was not in the public interest for much mundane details to be ‘revealed and later, on TV, even refused to “admit that he had been interviewed. Even though Mr. Collette cannot tell us :what the trip would cost, simple arithmetic can. Fifteen judges at a conservative $48 per Hight in one of B.C.'s best hotels costs $720 per sleep. Everyone, even judges, has to eat, and even though there's a Macdonalds just up the road, it seems more likely that the Judges wouldn't want to try out thelr English ordering a Big Mac and would stick to the Bayshore where at least the wine stewards speak French. Let's add a per diem of $40 each—a daily total of $600. : Then there: are some other hard-to- avoid expense account items—a drop of wine here, a taxi there—probably another $200 on incidentals. That's a total of $1,520 per day. The learning process lasts two weeks for a total of $21,280. Add to that return plane fare fram Quebec, estimated at $6,750 and the figure rises to $28,030. No wonder Mr. Collette didn’t want to admit such large scale slurping from the public trough. And then we have the case of a sawmill in Salmo. Idaho Forest Products, which owns the mill, was threatening to close it if a buyer’ could ‘not be found. After a search lasting more than a year, a buyer was indeed found, a company based in the southern United States. But no, says the all-knowing federal government agency in charge of approving sales to forelgn companies, one American company cannot sell a Canadian asset to another American company. No reasons for refusing to sell was given because It is not the government's policy to make these decisions public. Suffice to say, that just as one ministry is drastic In ment Insurance, another ministry is assur- ing the loss of 35 jobs, and perhaps more. But it's not in our Interest to know why those jobs are being lost. And even in B.C., there are things we have no need to know. B.C.’s auditor- general cannot divulge the salary of her deputy because the information is confiden- tial and furthermore, none of our business. The auditor-general is the civil servant who is supposed to blow the whistle of that kind of attitude, not participate in it. Close-mouthed is perhaps not exactly the right term to label some of our senior civil servants. Does high-handed and arro- gant more closely describe them? F breed- ra contempt, @ person needs to get out and around the world to discover that Canada, if not God's country, is certainly in the neighborhood, ONE REASON WHY I (to name but a few) am fond of my native land is that I was able to visit many other coun- tries when both I and the Canadian dollar were young and full of beans, The more exotic the foreign land, the more ardently I kissed the ground when I stepped off the plane home. T can't work up a really big peeve against the Canadian postal system, Why? Because I once spent a day in the Bagh- dad post office trying to file a telegram.

A WEEK OR SO AGO when Prime Minister Trudeau stated to the nation that “there will not be an election at this time” the political pundits of the news media, newspapers, magazines, TV and radio rush- ed into print and/or the air waves, and predicted that this statement. meant, that there would: be no election till next summer or early fall of 1979, Time to Set Limit on Lottery Racket Pushers Like other forms of gam- bling, lotteries on a small scale are harmless diversions. But on the scale they're developing now in Canada—to the extent of borrowing from the under- world's numbers racket and automating it with computers— lotteries are getting’ out of hand, It’s time for the federal and provincial governments to get together to set limits and stop the cutthroat promotion of what could become an addictive drug for government and tax- payer alike. Toronto Star It must be stated that one or two did predict that Trudeau could have meant an election might be held this fall or early winter, but they certainly were the exception. NOW, WITH THE RE- lease of the latest political poll, the great majority of these same sages are stating that there will indeed be an election this fall. They base their pre- dictions on the poll results which said the Liberals have dropped another point in the poll and the Conservatives have lost three or more points, while NDP have gained three or four points. Ever Wonder Why Pundits Flop at the Polls? ters Don’t Trust Them Political journalism, wheth- er it be on the airwaves or in print, has sunken very low in reliability in both Canada and the United States during the past 20 years, There is no basic, honest judgement in the evalu- ation of the days’ news in about 95 per cent of the media, Each journalist seems to write from every journalist feels that he has been chosen by God to advise the populace, and that’ his ideas alone are the only true facts regarding any political matter or politician.

When pur- chasing chicken remember that thecheaviersdhe chickenarthe better-the bargain. oH va A five-pound bird isa much better buy than two two-and- one-half pound: birds. Fowl (older hens) is an excellent buy if you remember it must be cooked over moist heat. It is great to use in such dishes as Chicken Divan. Probably the best thing. about chicken is its adaptabi- lity. As the flavor is relatively mild, it can easily combine with many different foods. The first recipe is for a chicken coating mix. It is sub- stantially cheaper when you make your own. Also you can control the flavoring as well as avoid the additives. Chicken Coating Mix Mix together 2c. fine dry br 1 tsp. sugar 1-1/2 tsp. garlic powder 1-1/2 tsp. onion powder 1/2 tap. mace 1/2 tsp. savoury 1/2 tep. sage 1/2 tsp. pepper Melt 1/2 c. margarine, add the dry ingredients and mix well. Store in a covered con- tainer in the refrigerator. To use wet chicken—roll or shake in mixture and bake for 50 min. at 350°. The mixture will ‘keep indefinitely; : 4 + The second recipe is very simple yet tastes fabulous: Chicken Breasts (for four) In a greased baking dish place one breast per person. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and 1/3 . of flour. Slice one large onion into rings and place on top of chicken. Mix together one tin of cream of celery and one tin of cream of chicken soup (un- diluted) and pour over chicken. Grate 1/2 to 3/4 Ib. cheddar cheese and spread on top. Cover und cook for one hour at 350° then uncover and cook for another hour. Note: Although breasts are called for in this recipe, I have ly used any seg- 1/2 ¢. flour 1-1/2 tsp. salt ment of chicken either indi- vidually or mixed. LP ios "Attention Men & Boys!

If that is so, one might ask, how did it all begin? Were there really some environmental pressures which helped us to evolve with “feminine” or “masculine” be- havior indelibly imprinted on our genetic make-up? Is there evidence that all the women of the world act cute, dizzy, manipulative and all the men strong, decisive and competitive? Many people do believe that the ways in which women and men behave are genetically determined and that biology is destiny. Such people believe that changes in sex-roles cause tension between the biological self and the social self and are doomed ultimately to failure. Others believe that the kind of behavior exhibited by, and expected: of, women and men is socally learned and hence changes as ‘society changes. Sometimes there is a lag— expectations may change faster or slower than the rate at which social changes is occurring. Hence, a woman whose role is very traditional, may feel tension from a perceived pressure to become more “lib- erated,” while the “liberated” woman faces constant pres: Fancy Pants ‘In’ Thing For Toddlers To ensure your toddler is part of the now generation, Terry No-Fold Products Ltd, brings you the denim diaper. The denim diaper (sure has a nice ring) is the most expensive product of Edmon- ton-based Terry No-Fold Pro-- ducts Ltd., considerably more than the $1 cost of the com- pany’s other products, It looks stiff, but softens after the first wash. However, the denim model isn’t selling as well as the other sures in the home and at work because her ideas of how she wants to relate to people are different from those of her family and co-workers, As an anthropologist and as a woman, Hurst wanted to explore some of these ideas with students. So she set up a social course, “Women, Men and Cultural Change” which has been offered already in Castlegar and Nelson and will be available again in Nelson this fall. “It's not dealing with ideas and facts that are ‘out there,’ that we can look at from a distance, We are all women or men and one can't help iden- tifying with the successes and failures of other women and men even way back in ancient Greece or some culture on the other side of the world, ‘so everybody gets involved per- sonally as well as academically with the course material,” Hurst says.
