The weather is usually stili warmn during the day and the evenings are refreshingly cool. The crowds of the sumîner have vanished and the trees brilliantly coloured. What better time for a vacation or a drive in the country? The fali colour season extends from mid- September to mid-October and Ontario Travel maintains an up-to-date fall colour report - just cal Toronto. (collect) 965-4008. And, often we're tempted to think that we must drive a great distance to enjoy the scencery and " get away from it al" - but take just a moment and consider the variety of locations within Durham Region that are perfect for autumn outings. What about walking through the Rouge River Park, iocated on the west side of the Rouge River bridge near Highway 2? This park follows the river valiey south fo the lake, providing a scenic view of Lake Ontario and the Scarborough Bluffs. Petticoat Creek Park and the Frenchrnan's Bay area, which combine to form a beautifuly water- front park highlighted by Beachpoint Promenade at the mouth of the Bay. An area described as a wildllfe sanctuary is also located along the northern shore of Frenchman's Bay. ®PERSONAL GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES' DURHAM CENTRE INVITES YOU To Find Out About Becoming A VOLUNTEER Working With Aduits & Children Who Are Developmentally Handicapped Or On Their Behaîf CHALLENGING & VARIED VOLUNTEER JOBS: -at Durham Centre -in the community -as mem ber of the Volunteer Association Days- Evenlngs-Weekonds Apply Now!

(P- Ontario) It is high time for the Government to start concen- trating on formulating a definite policy on re- training both the unemployed and working Canadians. Study after study bas recommended that the Government should be considering this proposal, yet the Government makes no decision, while there are 1.5 million Canadians unemployed. Why is the Government waiting? Technology is here to stay -- and Canada is falling behind other countries who have identified this problem and are attacking it and are cretignew policies inconjun-, ction with th uiessco hich will encourage re-training both in the private and public sectors. In Norway, for example, officiais have recognized the fact that technological change involves both problems of unemployment and the re-training of present manpower.-Because of their foresight, they will able to ensure that private businesses will have a sufficient amount of skilled workers on hand. The costs of any plans could be shared equally by the Government and private enterprise which, I arn sure, would in the long run be less costly to al rather that the alernative of spending billions of dollars in unemployment insurance benefits. The workers and the knowledge is out there. We have been waiting far too long - it is time to take advantage of what is presently available, build on it, and establish a definite policy on re-training in Canada. .ROFESSIG.AL cm: THE CORPORATION 0F THETOWNOFWHITBY IN THE MATTER 0F THE ONTARIO HERITAGE ACT, R..S.O., 1980, CHAP- TER 337 AND IN THE MATTER 0F THE LANDS AND PREMISES AT THE FOLLOWING MUNICIPAL ADDRESS IN THE PROVINCE 0F ONTARIO NOTICE 0F INTENT TO DESIGNATE TAKE NOTICE that the Council of the Corporation of the Town of Whitby Intends to designate the property, Includîng lands and buildings at the following municipal address as property of ar- chitectural value or interest under Part 4 of the Ontario Heritage Act, R.S.O., 1980, Chapter 337.
