Terrace Bay Police Force kep continued from page 3 from the tenant in a rational man- ner, his only course of action would be to take the tenant to smail claims court said Phillips. Transient treatment Phillips told the News that assistance was given to two tran- sients during the period from July 20 to July 27. Both incidents, which occurred on July 21, were reported at about 7:30 p.m. Phillips said incidents of this nature concern people who have: been hitch-hiking through town; been kicked off a bus or had to get off a bus because their ticket only takes them so far. He said the township is obliged to assist persons in this perdicament. He also told the News that occurrences of this nature even include families who may find themselves in a broken-down vehicle and have no money readi- ly available. The township, or police force, will help that family get to where they are going. The town can usu- ally collect back the money lent to persons in these instances Phillips said. In fact, Terrace Bay Deputy- Clerk Marg Simmer is the Terrace Bay Township Welfare Administrator. If persons find themselves in trouble, they can go to her and she will make arrangements to advance money for repairs, a bus ticket, etc. 5; (Simmer has been acting as Deputy Clerk-Treasurer Distance Education continued from page 6 Signal North Office = of Education Room UC-2004 Lakehead University Thunder Bay, Ont., P7B SE1, Tel: 343-8210 or call toll-freee 1-800-465-3959 and ask for Distance Education. St. John safety tips continued from page 8 from the mouth. 3. Using the hand on the fore- head, pinch the nostrils gently but firmly closed, keeping pressure on the forehead to keep the head tilted back and the tongue from falling back and obstructing the air passages. 4. Take a deep breath, open your mouth wide and place it ovér the victim's mouth to make a tight seal. Blow into the mouth, using two normal breaths then one full breath every five sec- onds. If the victim is a child or infant, you will not need as much breath as for an adult. Short gen- tle puffs are good. 5. After each breath turn your head towards the victim's chest. Listen for air coming out of the lungs. Look for the rise and fall of the chest. 6. If the chest fails to rise, air is not getting into the lungs. Remove any obstruction by Sweeping inside the mouth with your finger. Tilt head well back, check seal of nose and mouth and begin again.

Meal-ticket Police Chief Phillips said the force will help persons who are down and out and find themselves in Terrace Bay. Most of the time, when people have found themselves stranded in Terrace Bay, the police will supply a bus ticket and/or a meal. Phillips said a lot of the tran- sients whose tickets only bring them this far, or have been kicked off the bus, have been seen in this area many times before. Many of these people, he said, criss-cross the province or coun- try looking for employment. Only in the wintertime will the township or police force provide these people with hotel accom- modations said Phillips. Persons requiring this type of assistance during the day will be directed to Welfare Administrator Marg Simmer. It is only after nor- mal hours that the police force will be brought into the picture. Many times, Phillips said, these people will go directly to clergy where help is gladly-given. The operators of the Greyhound Bus Stop/Diane's Restaurant in the recreation cen- tre also keep an eye peeled for persons requiring assistance, and they can direct them to pastors in our community, Phillips said. Cycle sounds The Terrace Bay Police, over the last several weeks, also responded to noise complaints and motor bike complaints. _ Motor bikes have been causing disturbances near Lakeview Drive according to Chief Phillips. "It is against the bylaw to ride in that Terrace Bay-Schreiber News, Wednesday, August 5, 1987, page 9 area," he said. Several noise complaints were cleared up with no police action necessary. Stopping speeders During the last several weeks the Terrace Bay Police Force also charged two persons under the Highway Traffice Act for speed- ing. As was the case in last week's police report, these two instances concerned out-of-town drivers. In last week's report, Phillips said the out-of-towners are: trying t very busy © to make time on their trip or just enjoying nice weather so much they are not thinking of their speed. (Many drivers have also been known to have difficulty slowing down in built-up areas after having been "cruising" on the highway for many miles). Meal misunderstanding The police force was also called to investigate an unpaid bill at a local restaurant. The force says there was a misunder- standing and no further police action was necessary. _ Self-esteem and confidence continued from page 6 Factors that influence our self-esteem are based upon the unique experiences and personal relationships that are part of our lives. We encounter these experiences and relationships at home, in school, on the job and in our social lives. It goes without saying that positive relationships and experiences help raise self-esteem while negative ones tend to lower self-esteem. However, no one single event or relationship can determine your level of self-esteem. Self-esteem develops over time, constantly changing with different life experiences. High self-esteem allows our lives to be more fulfilling. Some of the benefits include a feeling of enrichment in our lives, an ability to maintain self-confidence and the courage to accept challenges. Low self-esteem feeds into itself to perpetuate a vicious circle of lack of self-confidence and poor performance at work or at play. yourself and others, as well as bringing on a lonesome and unhappy personal life. If you feel you might have a low self-esteem, you can take positive steps to imporove it. It is not an easy task since it means taking a look at yourself and changing those things about yourself which you might not like. Here are some suggestions that may help: 1. Be proud of yourself. Appreciate your uniqueness so that you can respond to life's challenges in positive and productive ways; 2. Help yourself by developing your talents and abilities, Furthermore, challenge yourself 'by completing tasks or goals that are slightly beyond your reach. A feeling of accomplishment may result; 3. Encourage yourself when you feel you need it; 4. Praise yourself when you deserve it, Give yourself a pat on the back; 5. Learn to trust your own judgement; 6. Learn to love yourself. This does not mean becoming self- centered or snobby since this is usually a sign of insecurity and low self-esteem. When you come to accept yourself for what you are, including accomplishments and shortcomings, then you will begin to think of yourself as worthwhile. Think about the quote I gave at the beginning of the article. Remember, developing a positive self-esteem takes time, but the results are well-worth the effort. If you've tried to improve this but you are not making progress, consider talking to a qualified counsellor. Perhaps they can help.
