The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, Wednesday, January 13,1993 Community Correspondence 19 Yelverton News We are convinced that the Christmas Christmas season is over - all things point in that direction. The Christmas cactus' final bloom which was drooping as with anemia, has been plucked from its moorings. Those cooking smells synonymous with the season are finally finally being dissipated - you know the ones - stale turkey saturated with sage and onions are giving way to a new combination of traces of Christmas perfumes and aftershaves, stale smoke and other insidious if diverse combinations combinations of factory delights. With the advent of the New Year and the eternal optimism that is generated generated with the prospect of better things to come, we spurn the thought of another another dismal year like 1992. Surely, all the elements that combined to make last year a year the majority of Canadians would like to forget, .will not persist again this year. Admittedly, Admittedly, we're stuck with Mulroney and his gang for another year, and as if free trade with U.S.A. with its resultant unemployment unemployment due to plant closures with some 350,000 out of work who previously were gainfully employed individuals contributing to the federal and provincial treasurer's through Income Income taxes and local businesses. Unfortunately those same individuals,-through individuals,-through no fault of their own, are now drawing from the treasury through unemployment or welfare payments, instead of contributing. In Canada 85% of monies expended go directly to the recipients and 15% goes to retraining for the job market. In Sweden the reverse is true with more positive results. Despite all the crabbing about conditions conditions in Canada, we still wouldn't trade our situation for any others we could mention in the world. Our educational educational system which definitely could do with an overhaul is still better than almost any other country. Our medi care system despite criticism*from top guns of certain "have-not" nations, like U.S.A. is vastly superior to almost almost all other nations. All in all, we live in a dam Fine country and hopefully we won't let it be mined by a bunch of ill informed politicians who don't know what is good (and not good) for us. It's time, as run of the mill Canadians, we shake off our mantle of excessive modesty and start to demonstrate our pride of country and accept the recognition that is our due. Hearty congratulations are extended extended to Merrill and Jean Van Camp of Blackstock who were married during Christmas and New Year's. Mr. George Neals, formerly of Bethany Bethany R.R. has recently been transferred transferred from Intensive Care to Extendi- care in Lindsay's Ross Memorial Hospital. No improvement in health has been reported. Sorry to hear Mr. Vincent Jackson of Bethany has recently entered a Peterborough Peterborough Hospital for additional medical care. No major change has been reported for Mr. Morley Wright also in Peterborough Peterborough Civic Hospital. Speedy convalescence convalescence to all! Mr. and Mrs, Norman Wilson and Ann and Hally Hurren were among the family members observing New Year's at the Carl Smith's on New Years Day. New Year's was ushered in with a little less gusto than usual - or so it seemed to us. The reason why is only a conjecture on our part, we suspect a combination of many things. 1. the persistent admonition by the Boys in Blue, if you drink don't drive or vice versa if you drive don't drink. 2. the age of the crowd attending the function function we attended - not as prone to ex- cesss of spontaneity or overkill as a younger age crowd might be. A sort of "ho-hum" approach to the advent of 1993. With the current interference by a minority of "do-gooders" with the lives of all and sundry our lives will soon be completely regimented by a succession of mores. First to be restricted of course is the consumption of booze. Number two is the attempt by the non-smokers to push their way of life on those who enjoy huffing and puffing.. Next, they'll be sticking their noses into the nation's bedrooms with an aim at controlling controlling any variance in sexual procedures, procedures, frequency and hours ( or minutes) minutes) of participation. Among the various New Year's activities activities that took place included Frank and Marlene Glasbergcn spending New Year's Eve with Frank's mothers Mrs. Elizabeth Glasbergen in Whitby. On New Year's Day, they joined the local McGill families some 25 or so in number, at Vanita and John Snushalls in Peterborough for dinner and social evening. Also present were Mrs. Alice McGill, the Sterling and Vaugh McGill families and the Bill Gil- mour's and boys. Pleased to see a name change on the 2nd side road east of Yelverton. What was formerly given the ridiculous ridiculous name of "Forced Road" has been renamed the "McGill Road" in recognition recognition of the several generations of • McGills who have owned property adjacent adjacent to this particular road. A timely correction by the D.H.O. The Terry and Howard Malcolm families had a novel way of welcoming welcoming the New Year. A B.B.Q. in the woods with sleigh rides for all provided provided by Keith Goble and horses and sled. Wonder how they coped with such a frosty evening? On.New Year's Day, Eileen and Howard joined Candy and Jim Ban- non at their Toronto residence for the festive day. Nancy and Dale Stinson and girls inducted their newly renovated kitchen kitchen and area with a party for their many friends during the week.
