By 1972 synthetics com- s-umed ten percent of the petroleum in the United States and were considered an enormous technical break- through and a boon to cer- tain life styles. Today, in the US. alone, the man-made fibre industry produces more than seven billion pounds of fibre annually, in- creasing at the rate of 17 percent each year. World production exceeds 20 bil- lions pounds per year â€" termed by the Wool Bureau as “a classic case of over- kill". The writers pdnt out tha¢ it is time that natural fibres Some 30 years ago synthe- tic clothing as we know it was not around. Nylon was not generally available to the public until after World War II, acrylics in the early ‘50’s, polyesters in the mid- fifties. All of rthese a-re syn- thesized from petro-chemj- cals, derivatives of crude oil.

The Ontario Sheep Associ- ation thinks that the present “energy crisis” may provide them with a small slice of that silver, restoring the sheep to a place of promi- nence and respect as a pro- ducer of more than mere succulent spring lamb. A grant in the amount of 312.800 went to a project entitled “Needs Of Rural Women". sponsored by Mrs. Bette Stanley of Beeton. It is proposed to do a research study to determine the needs of rural women. The project Save Energy, Wear Wool Sheep Association Advises Largest grant approved was to the Mount Albert and Dis- trict Lions Club to build a front entrance addition to the Mount Albert Community Hall. The grant was for $20.- 600 and it is proposed that in addition to providing a safe entrance to the building. the extra room will allow for better meeting and social functions. It will also allow the Lions to provide wash- room facilities for senior citi- zens using the hall. Upon completion. the building will be turned over to the parks board. ’ The committee, which plans to hold further meetings. is composed of Cathy Joyce of Stouffville, Jim Wales of Everett. Dan Shannon of Newmarket. Ken Burnett of Aurora. John Fennell of Bradford. Buddy Rodgers of Aurora. _Bill Kerr of Klein- burg. John Watt of Newmar- ket and John Hastings of Tottenham. This year the applications for grants were approved by a local constituency commit- tee which worked diligently. I am pleased that the Minis- ter followed their recommen- dations without change. ‘Twas the week before Christmas when all through York Simcoe. $65,000 in Local Initiatives Program grants were announced by the Min- ister of Manpower and Immi- gration. It is likely a further amount will be announced in the near future. §nowmobile Insurance ‘include ,your sleigh and trailer with no extra charge Richmond Hill Maple PATRICK HIGGINS KIRBY BROCK Res: 884-4582 “MWMIE!

They continue to stand ready to provide us with ample quantities as our demand becomes apparent. To assist in preserving our ecology, sheep growing must assume its properly propor- tionate position in our pro- duction of textiles. The world can double and triple sheep production. It’s a question of choice!” A sheep’s wool is ready for clipping in two years af- ter birth and can be sheared time and again during the life of the animal. Once used for making synthetics, there is no way to put oil back in the ground. On the other hand, bright green grazing pastures, used to nurture sheep, reappear each spring, year after year, naturally fertilized by the grazing sheep which add nutrients to the soil.

I would be pleased to hear from any constituents con- cerning these grants or whe- ther they feel the LIP pro- gram should be continued. In totalfsome twenty-six jobs will be created in the riding as a result of the grants. A child care centre grant in the amount of $12,240 has been approved to enable the establishment of such a facil- ity in the All Saints Anglican Church, King City. The pro- gram will have a maximum of fifteen children per week and will be open from 8:00 am to 6:00 pm. five days a week. The centre will be open to children up to five years of age. Deborah Munisâ€" so of King City is the span- sor of the project. In Newmarket, the library received a $9,360 grant to help them reclassify and recatalogue seventeen years backlog of 5,000 books in order to improve service to the community. A profession- al cataloguer will be hired. The library has $5,517 on hand to devote to the project which will total almost $13.- The Boy Scouts of Canada were granted $10,000 in Stouffville to assist them in improving woodland trails in their camp facilities in that area. The activities will in- clude fencing the property. building fireplaces, and pic- nic tables. The camp serves Boy Scouts not only in our riding but throughout the Metro area. will focus on Simcoe County with a population of 3,000 rural women.
