Wednesday, Februay 28, 1990 TERRACE BAY/SCHREIBER NEWS Page 5 Letter Your editorial "English Only" came to mind as I was reading the comment of a congresswoman from the United States. "What better way to build understanding, than to speak one another's language." When faced with the argument to provide services to Ontario res- idents in French, we can see it merely in economic terms, and blame the government for impos- 'ing their will on us. A construc- tive alternative is to celebrate the privilege of living in a country as many ethnic cultures and two Pet Talk By Alice Scott Housebreaking a puppy can cause some people to become frustrated and impatient. The easiest way to train any puppy is to approach the training with a positive point of view. Never rub a pup's nose into his own excrement. An eight week old puppy cannot be expected to have bladder and bowel control. When your puppy arrives start him on the schedule shown below. Remember... praise him when he relieves himself outside. Never correct him for going on the floor, unless you catch him in the act. If you catch him immedi- ately tell him "no", and then bring him outside. Never shout at your puppy. Keep your puppy con- fined to one room, or even better use a dog cage to confine him when you are not at home or to busy to watch him. Schedule for 3 to 6 months 7 a.m. Walk the dog 8 a.m. feed, water and walk 12:30 p.m. feed, water, and walk 4:30 p.m. feed, water, and walk : 8:00 p.m. walk the dog 11:00 p.m. walk the dog As your puppy matures you can change his feeding schedule. By the time he is a year old he can be fed twice a day, or even once a day. The success of housebreaking depends on absolute consistency. If your puppy messes on the floor during the night do not scold him. He will only associate your morn- ing arrival with scolding. Some puppies may need to relieve themsélves more than required by this schedule. Please adjust the schedule to their needs. iv Canada to the Editor major language groups. We are richer for having English or French spoken in our communi- tics, and having as our neighbors, persons from Italy as well as England, Poland as well as Mexico, India as well as Hungary. On a practical level both our communities are run to welcome tourists from all parts of our country as well as from many dif- ferent nations. What better way to be made to feel at home then to be welcomed in your own lan- guage? Those who promote "English Only" probing for Ontario can be compared to people who go aroung looking only at their feet, when the view is marvellous out there. On a more serious level their attitudes give rise to racial jibes in the workplace and jeers in the playground, even when spo- ken in jest, these words hurt! So what-about learning anoth- er language next fall'? At the very lcast, let's celebrate our diversity! David Sparks Box 387 Terrace Bay, On.
