If m Mr 166 King St. E. Telephone 623-3396 In the Editor's Mail Howdy Young Fella, While moochin aroun the downtown area last week, I haerd talk about this here Hereetage Week. A week of fun and festival they said. Ofcourse my ears pricked up at that. Things have been preety quiet around these parts, these last fifty years, and I'm all game for a bit of fun. So I gets one of those dudes on this here Hereetage Hereetage Committee to spell out what exactly they ve got lined up; and the more I listen, listen, the more excited Imgit- tin and I can hardly keep still, and then I blurt out "Can I do somethin? Im good at some ole-time fiddlin, I'd be glad to head the parade or give them yoiing uns an ole-time yarn or two." After what I think was a look of amazement, she shook her head and replied; "Sure you con, It's a fun time for everyone. everyone. Everybody can participate. participate. Unfortunately our Business friends are not too enthusiastic, It is a wonderful wonderful opportunity to do some advertising, and get the community spirit going but Ofcourse I could not be- leive what I was hearing. In my day when I managed the ole General store, this would have been a heaven-sent opportunity opportunity to get on the bandwagon bandwagon and try to get rid of as much stuff as possible, because people in a party mood, are in a generous mood, and look at all the goodwill going around. An event like this should be grabbed with both hands and and shaken the worth out of. Ofcourse business folk now just smile and 'yes sir' and get very complacent. I guess thats why they call 'em Yuppies, cause they yup you every time you turn around, They've probably got enough business to keep them going, and they don t need to hustle like we did in my day; or to care too much about goodwill and stuff. But that's not me. It's too bad I've long since been put out to pasture or I would have wound circles around these guppies, But count on it laddie, I'll bo out there fiddlin' - come Hereetage Week.
