* , January A 1992 : wp 8 Scugog Citizen -- Tue: AF WITH DOUG OLLFFE Letter to the Editor respass To the Editor: The Ontario Bill 143, regarding inspection of private property by the province for waste disposal sites, is a definite trespass on the rights of ownership. It would seem to me that farm- ers will be more affected by this than an individual homeowner, as that is where a new waste disposal site will be located. Is this just another step by gov- ernment to control the rights of farmers? It would appear the Bob and Doug McKenzie would love this place, eh? Richard Wagner (left) sure has something brewing over on Casimir St., home of on¢ of the newest businesses in town, High Test Brewing. If you like all-natural, sediment free, preservative free, crystal clear beer -- THAT YOU MAKE YOURSELF -- High Test can the equipment, the ingredients and the expertise -- everything you need to make your own beer.The big difference between High Test and home kits, is High Test has no preservatives and no sediment. And the price! This is a gen- uine bargoon! You can make 48 litres (equal to 6 two-fours) for only $78. Beauty, eh? 'esebvecesccccsence Hey, who is that? Why, it's Cindy Ouellette, ser- vice manager at Dennis.Andersoh's Chev-Geo- olds. But it doesn't look like she's fixing a car, it looks like she won something. Hey Cindy! What Is that you've got-there? Well, I'll be. _ That's Cindy, on the left, accepting the $100 Christmas hamper she won in the Chicken Coop's Christmas draw.

This is something that all farm- ers should acknowledge, and fur- ther should be prepared to ask Council to make representation to the provincial government in opposition to Bill 143, . * Représentation by Scugog council Would be much more effective than one or two individu- als making this representation. Specifically, it would seem this is an obligation Scugog Council should follow through with, and I would suggest councillor Dietlein, might be the instigator of such a motion at Council.

How many times have you heard that? Plenty. But I discovered something Sunday moming that made this used and abused expression hit home. My poor mother spent a few days at Community Memorial Hospital this past week, recovering from a severe bout with the flu. While I was visiting her on Sunday moming, I couldn't help but notice a brass plafe tacked on the intravenous pump, which Mom was hooked yp to. It read: "Donated by Hospital Auxiliary in Recognition of Dowson's Valu-mart, 1990." When you spend yaur shopping dol- lars locally, you are enabling merchants to support such worthy causes. When you spend your money out of town, are those out of town merchants going to support your hospital as gener- ously? Anyway, hope you're feeling better soon, Mom! | .

The one certainty in the trip, he said, is to spénd several weeks in the ancient kingdom of Nepal, back-packing from the capital Katmandu to the very base of Mount Everest.
