Webster defines ‘fairness’ - ‘as “just, equitable, impartial, unbiased, dispassionate, being ‘free from favor toward either Nor any side, and implying an ‘elimination of one’s own feel- cings, prejudices and desires so vas to achieve a proper balance.” That definition certainly ‘says it well—yet in our society, where many are looking and “supposedly working for fair- tmess, seldom, if ever, do we really see this fine Christian ‘quality displayed. Employees are demanding ‘fairness from their employers ‘and fairness with similar jobs. ‘Employers are demanding fair- ness from competitors, govern- ‘ments and employees. (See :James 5:1-5.) The consumer is pleading for fairness in ad- vertising, in purchases made at a local store. Students want (and need) fairness from fellow students, teachers and parents. Wives and husbands want fairness and honesty from each other (and must have it in order to have a good family and home). Unions are demanding fair- ness in their march for mem- bership solidarity and strike votes. “Right-towork” advo- cates demand fairness in secur- ing a job. (See Colossians 3:18-4:31.) Who's right? Who is ac- tually fair? The problem is that what i is fair tome may not be fair to you because we have no common standard of fairness. God is fair, and He gave a common stan- dard of fairness for all—and even He abides by it. It is the Law of the 10 Commandments {Deuteronomy 5), given by a loving and merciful God Who You Can Help Reduce Risk of Heart Disease « : + Heart and blood vessel di- ‘seuses are a leading killer of Canadians.

We complain about incon- sistencies; but we must first realize our own inconsistencies in our thinking, working, living, as well as inconsistencies in our religious beliefs. God is con- sistent, dependable and just as fair today as He was to King David. (Malachi 3:6, Hebrews 18:8.) God is fair and can be trusted, Gad wants us to be fair, but it will only happen Question: Most nutrition columns are full of ideas on how to lose weight but give little informa’ tion for people like myself who would like to gain weight. Do you have any suggestions? Answer: First establish with your physician that you are truly underweight and, if so, that the cause for your being under- weight is not related to a physical condition such as a hormonal imbalance. Being slightly underweight can be an advantage,.as such people have a lower probability of con- tracting certain‘ diseases and apparently enjoy a longer life than those who are overweight, You should evaluate your food intake to be certain you are obtaining sufficient calories and nutrients for your age. A copy of Canada Food Guide, available from your local Health Unit, will help you in this area. You may need to eat more often, that is five smaller meals instead of the usual three. Plan a definite eating schedule which should include breakfast and a substantial evening snack, and adhere to it. You can increase the calo- ries in your diet by eating more calorie rich foods such as cream soups instead of broth soups. Extra calories as well as other nutrients can be supplied by adding skim milk powder to milk beverages and puddings, Nuts are a good snack: food because of their high fat con- tent, which makes them high in calories, Question: What is carrageenan and why is {t added to chocolate milk? Answer: ‘i Carrageenan is a type of seaweed alsotknown as Irish Moss. It is added to chocolate milk as a stabilizing .agent, which means it keeps the particles of chocolate’ from settling to the bottom of the chocolate milk. Question: My job requires a great deal of travelling. How can I reduce the fat content of my diet while eating most of my meala in a restaurant? Answer: The following are a few suggestions which would help you in this area: 1) Start’ your meal with juice or consomme, instead of a cream soup. 2) Ask to add your own salad dressing, or better still, use only vinegar or lemon juice. 3) Choose foods which have not been. fried or are served with sauces, such as poached fish, broiled steak or plain roast ‘beef. 4) Choose fruit-instead of pie or cake for dessert. 5) Try to patronize those restaurants which serve low fat milk products.

School district went on strike Oct. ‘26. As a result, the Trail, Castlegar and Grand Forks School Boards locked out their CUPE empioyees in support of Nelson. If this action had not been taken, CUPE could have struck the school districts one by one and forced them ‘to accept the union’s demands. This is why your school boards bargain as a single unit. : During the last CUPE strike in Trail ‘and: Grand Forks, the other two boards did not lock out in support because to do so would have been illegal. The union called the strike in Trail and Grand Forks at the very beginning .of the bargaining process in those areas. The union then refused to begin bargaining in Nelson and Castlegar, which made it illegal for these boards to lock out their CUPE employees in support of . Trail.and Grand Forks. FACT: The school boards are; and have been, "+ prepared to resume negotiations with CUPE at any time and are willing to discuss changes to the board’s offers or the union’ s demands. : CUPE refuses to. negotiate unless the — boards guarantee beforehand to increase their wage offer. : The law prevents the school boards from negotiating with anyone other than CUPE’s national representative, Fred Pyke. The local unions have given him the authority to negotlate on their behalf. CUPE’s strike in Nelson is the only thing standing in the way of getting the schools: back into normal operation. If the strike is lifted in Nelson, the lockout will be lifted in _ Trail, Castlegar and Grand Forks. ' The school boards have asked the Labor Relations Board to rule the strike in Nelson illegal because CUPE failed to conduct a government-supervised strike vote. The school boards have made a monetary offer to CUPE which maintains traditional wage parity with the East Kootenay school board employees. This offer would mean a 15.7 per cent to 23.1 per cent wage increase over two years. CUPE workers in the East Kootenay school districts recently Settled for this level after a 10-week work stoppage. : Contrary to CUPE’s claim, CUPE school board employees in the West Kootenays have never had parity with their coun- terparts in. the Okanagan. However, the school boards have agreed to CUPE’s demand for parity with the Okanagan. The only disagreement is. the length of time in which. parity will be achieved. CUPE wants complete parity immediately. The boards have offered ‘parity in. most categories. within the next contract period and total parity in all categories within two contract -- * periods.
