How green is my valley...

The music of the Don

By JOHN HARVEY

F THE REST of Canada will
forgive me for being paro-
chial rather than national I

would like to tell you about the
suburb I live in. It is called Don
Mills.

Situated in North York (To-
ronto), Don Mills is named after
the river that runs through it
and the mill that used to aper-
ate on its banks.

Now Don Mills is a mixture
of factories, high-rise apart-
ment buildings, publishing
houses, multiple dwelling units,
single family homes, and shop-
ping plazas.

Sounds familiar, doesn’t it?

When you become familiar
with Don Mills you find it has
more dance, drama, ballet, art
and music classes than any
other square footage of Canada
that I have ever seen. Cultured
people.

It also has teenage gangs on
its plazas.

nized a_ pre-school nursery
school to teach children.

AVE YOU tried any of the
new freeze-dried foods?

You. probably have and
weren’t aware of it — in dried
soups, in prepared dinners and
such things.

Freeze-drying is a new pro-
cessing method which removes
the moisture from fresh foods
and permits them to be stored
for as long as two years with-
out refrigeration.

ers, intellectuals, we come from
the banks of the Clyde, the
Thames, the Rhine, the Vistula,
the Assiniboine, the Neva, the
Mirimachi, the Bow and the
Fraser rivers.

Quite a few people in Don
Mills got fed up-with the North
York school system and started
a new school of their own.
¢Shocking lack of respect for the
Establishment in Don Mills.

Libraries, too. Mobile and
permanent. Go there every Mon-
day night. The smaller the car
the bigger the load of books the
parents and children take home.

The Don Valley runs through
Don Mills ... “how green is my
valley. 72...

In Ontario 100,000 people go
to jail annually. Sixty thousand
people are alcoholics, 17,000
husbands deserted their wives
last year. The number of people
who require psychiatric treat-
ment is too well known a statis-
tic to quote.

The hunger of the soul... ..

too complex a problem for a so-
ciety that profits from hunger
to solve.

The lonely, the jailed, the de-
serter, the deserted, and the ill
can only be restored by society
as a whole, society whose sole
interest is the restoration of
human beings to self-respect,

ture specialists recently ran
taste tests on 28 freeze dried
foods to see how they rated
when compared with canned
and frozen items.

Dance, drama, ballet, art,
music classes, pre-school nur-
sery schools, libraries, advanced
schools, the green of the valley,
the wisdom of the people, -the
scholarship of the uneducated.
We produced Goethe, Shakes-
peare, Shevchenko, Leacock,
Penfield, Chisholm, Selye, Glen
Gould ... We are not barren.

The water of the Don sounds
as musical today, even with the
detergent in it, as it did when it
ground flour and cut logs. The
valley is as green now as it was
in the days our forefathers set
foot in it.

Instead of a mill we now
have in Don Mills a factory that
turns out the products of cyber-
netics: computers.

Programmed computations.
The computers won’t work with-
out a program. And only man
can provide the program.

In Don Mills we have on our
program: dance, drama, ballet,
art, music, pre-school nursery
schools, advanced schools, votes
for the NDP, the wisdom of the
people, the scholarship of the
uneducated, the green of the
valley.

And that, my friends, is sub-
urbia, Canada.

Smile, you’re on candid camera.

They found three freeze-dried
foods definitely better than
their canned or frozen counter-
parts, 15 equally as good, and
10 poorer.

The top three were beef
noodle soup, shrimp creole, and
one brand of chicken noodle

soup. The other foods rated as
follows:

As good as canned or frozen
Swiss steak, beef stew,
creamed chicken, shrimp, shrimp
salad, creamed shrimp, crab-
meat, crab salad, scrambled
eggs, Sausage, diced ham, chili
with beans, chicken rice soup,
and one brand of chicken
noodle soup and one brand of
mushroom soup.

Poorer — Beef steaks, diced
beef, sliced beef and gravy, two
brands of diced chicken, chick-
en salad, chicken stew, chicken-
rice casserole, peas, and one
brand of mushroom soup.

In general, freeze-dried foods
rated higher when used in pre-
pared dishes than alone.

A melon is ripe if there’s a
softening of the fruit around
the blossom end. You can also
tell by the odor. A ripe melon
has a sweet or fruity smell.

out for school children — espe-
cially if they are driving cars.
