OUR READERS WRITE Sewer wafer decision made at polls Margaret Given Sheridan grad The Acton Free Press Wednesday Juno 3 June Dear Sir Democracy as the dictionary defines It is a system of government run directly or indirectly by the people who live under it We are now in experiencing an example of this form of government ana its operation We have had governments at the village and township levels elected by a majority of voters who felt It In the interest of the community to follow a prescribed plan to Implement the installation of sewers and water in the village Citizens have the right and have exercised this right to disagree We have had the opportunity to have our opposing views heard and considered This Is as it should be Whether we agree or disagree with the Municipal Board their final decision could not have been otherwise The decision to install sewers and water in Rockwood was actually made at the polls We elected by majority succeeding governments who endorsed the plan and will now implement it If we are to perpetuate our form of government we must now accept the decision of our elected representatives and live by it Yours truly Hartman Abortion takes lives Canada needs Dear Sir I had intended to write earlier In the year on the subject of abortion Listening to a young unmarried girl last Saturday on T V extolling the virtures of abortion reminded me of my neglect I consider anyone who has an abortion nothing more or less than a criminal ac cording to law if you take the life of another human You automatically place yourself In that category but today If you take the life of an unborn unprotected defenseless human being you are not How can one make the distinction Is not the latter more of a monstrosity here on the farm one comes in daily contact with the animal mother and the wonderful care she takes of her off spring even to the giving up of life itself to protect them from harm Arc we becoming inferior to the animals In days gone by when people had the courage ana the honesty to raise large families pollution was unheard of They got little and it took less to do them It is the and the cravings of the small families of today for unnecessary

them They will learn that money is not there for the mere asking and does not materialize with the wave of a magic wand Should there be no specific purchase In mind then a very wise plan would be to save ahead for the nest eventuality This will also help in the raising of the protective umbrella against the rainy day which dawns so often in our Uvea The use of the home piggy bank is a great start Encourage the youngsters to deposit regular amounts until the bank Is full and then hotfoot it down to the savings department Explain that the money will then be working for them Example is the
