Home Newspaper of Halton Hills WM1NUIM 1ST 19J7 A Division of Canadian Newspapers Company United Main South Georgetown L7G Ontario 1 I- VDOKIMOr- Publisher BOB Clan Reg Number Worthy report from Morrow writer of it At this stage here too much unknown about still hidden implications in Ihe report only seven days old today But should sometime in the future regional government responds better than it does today to the needs of the people a lot of the hanks for will lie in Morrow report At least the ball is rolling Proposal contains warning Contained in he proposal to face lift At ton downtown core is an serwtion businessmen there and in Georgetown as well would do well to The subversion of self interest animosities and jealousies is if the downtown is to progress and rennin into the future The proposal emphasizes these lines as well as those ing It is therefore incumbent upon in dividual members of the downtown community both property owners and tenants to complement the public of the Business Improvement with privately initiated Failure to do as the proposal suggests while not necessarily fatal to the cores of both towns certainly will cause a tendency to deteriorate and stagnate when what needed is life giving change and forward movement The people of Acton however have long been noted for their individuality and willingness to go it alone to take their welfare into their own hands to know themselves hot for them The facelift of Acton s downtown is an opportunity for the community leaders and businessmen to show the rest of Ha lion can be done by private enterprise Maybe if they the government won t forget to put them back on the map The recommendations made by Ric Morrow chairman of region are going to require a lot of thought that obvious As is usual in cases of this sort where for change are presented it takes lime for he impractical and irrational counter recommendations sink out of sight We re in the middle of that time now there are many who pay no attention to the discussion until its all over They may be right but for this we believe not Rather for a time In the past It is obvious to anyone who the slightest to events around him or her that the rate of change has increased was imposed in and despite outrage against its imposition it is here to stay way of lifeinthepast Todosoisfolly Morrow recommendations are made with an eye to the future and that future portends greater problems more difficult solutions and gut feeling decision making the kind hat be for the benefit of all but only at the high cost to a few Morrow can quiet bring himself to disagree with the long respected John point that the chairman of a region can represent the local seat at the same time However manv journeys have begun with a stumble or fahe step but safelv arrived the and soil is with Morrow rep or The details of how to reduce the number of regional councillors requires a lot of on handon and Me leave that fine weighing of possible or potential advantages to those paid to represent the public With the vanetv of em and inclination available on regional council who will be passing or rejecting Morrow s recom mendations there is a convenient out left for them in Morrow provision of an alternative leave every thing as it is but limit the chairman to wo consecutive terms A wise escape hole which can allow an out for a weaned of arguing council and still let them look like they are doing something It this mark of be it right or wrong that creates a strong admiration for the chairman report and for himself too as the sole

takes preparation I hove Just returned from two weeks vacation In ihe one of the most beautiful lake areas In Ontario The weather cooperated the bass were biting and brilliant diamonds of sunlight ashed almost ceaselessly oft the bluest shade that water can acquire Without any effort at all I slipped easily into the serenity of an almost uninhabited lakeside paradise and it lasted for nearly five minutes I have not yet determined whether child can call child for a distance of miles or if first faint wisps of smoke announces open season on food but by tho end of the first day our dock resembled a marina and on any given day with about five minutes notice was setting the dinner table or an extra half dozen assorted sized children Having become an old hand the cottage game I have learned to menially prepare myself well in advance to live nature In relative harmony after all we are the intruders in this wilderness environment instance I find it preferable to look at the beauty of the scenery rather than examine contents of the drinking water too closely Ah you say but what about the miracles of nature and teeming wildlife You arc right it is marvellous but one must adjust to ihe Idea that at least hair the wildlife population will be inside the cottage with you ftow kids by the dozen can cope with the patter of wee four legged beastics racing up and down llvingroom floor all night I can live with even sharing my bed with various species of moths 1 can tolerate but mosquitoes and I will never to habit in any state less than total warfare I have fought a steady losing battle with them or 13 years one that annually leaves me in a state of acute post holiday anemia I have tested out every variety of bugoft and IV U on the market and firmly reject anything that

but when a black excitedly buzzing cloud masses around the car while we are still 10 miles distant from the cottage one would almost believe they were anticlpat my arrival However when I distinctly hear the vibes they are transmitting Bre aker oneone Guess who coming to dinner good buddy well can I be blamed for breaking into a fully fledged case of than these minor drawbacks cottage living has much to recommend it It is casting a fishing line from jour dock In the first warm rays of the rising sun and seeing a beaver swim lazily unconcernedly past It Is closely observing the almost appearance of a pair of a ceaselessly hunting for sufficient food satisfy their young safely hidden in the raggletaggle nest atop a nearby hydro pole It is listening to the angry chatter of a chipmunk on your doorstep when you forget his dally ration of and the friendly waves from occasional passing strangers who will never be anything more than distant bobbing heads protruding above the sides of a boot It is the triumph on your youngest child face as she masters the heavy oars cumbersome Another summer another skill Well all good things must end and it Is back lo the city now and time to gear up for once in a while a flash of memory will bring back the image of sunlight dancing off a quiet solitary lake and the mind will recall Ihe lonely haunting cry of the loon Decades old ripoff still

mind la an opposition lhal can agree thai government can be right in many things it does even though may be Improved or some of Ihcm What we have had is oppositions who In their have had the the government Is either callous or stupid The consequence has been lots of dog fighting but relatively little progress from the inter play between parties In our system Yet should be such progress The system Is based Ideally on Ihe premise that the government proposes while the opposition opposes opposes not so much for political gain as lo get improved legislation policies and administration A can get us close 1 this ideal And with present Liberal group there Is hope for such reason By GFORGE gets ripped off at one time or another and it happened to me last week The sum was less than two bits cents to be exact but even being ripped off for penny is loo much Here a how 11 happened The postman delivered a postage due letter to me It had no return address and the letter was unsigned It was one of those blasted chain letters only this one did not ask me lo send any money or bottles of booze or anything like It was a prayer You are to receive good luck within four days after receiving this letter the writer says IT IS NO JOKE You will receive il in the mall Send copies of this letter to people you think need good luck The letter goes on to say that a United States officer In the received FT after he mailed copies but another officer general died six days after falling to circulate prayer It mentions that a Constance Digs receiv Ihe chain letter in IB53 and got her secretary to make 20 copies to mail Lucky Constance hen won according to the letter 12 million in a lottery There no mention of what happened lo the secretary who did the work Then Charles Brent another officer
