Their morning man "Tom Rivers" was doing a radio marathon for the Barrie Tornado victims, in co-operation with the Ontario Tornado Relief Fund It was then the thought hit me. Why doesn't Port ; do something to help as well. .

And my typical mom said back to me '| don't know for sure, do you want a coffee?" I finally said no to the coffee and told mom I was off to see what might happen in town. Well, it was close to 10:00 a.m. and the very first place I hit was Em- merson's where | was given a donation and an envelope. | asked "What's that for?' And Mr. Emmerson replied, "With something like this, you're going to need something to carry the money in." 1 thought nothing of it and went on (Thank you for the envelope again, Emmersons).

I'd be stan- ding talking to the pro- prietor and people in the building would over-hear and when I went over to ask if they'd give, I'd get people throwing $20.00 bills to me, and I promis- ed everyone that I'd put a piece in the paper. Well, here it is. The response that I got was fantastic and everybody was more than happy to give. Some people said "I've given once but I'll give again because that tornado could easily have come here." I would say on the average 3 out of 30 people would not give at all.
