HERALD Wednesday Augusts New market receives planning boards approval A businessman found on the losing end of the bargaining last week he got down to bartering with the towns subsidiary planning board about a fruit stand he hopes to build in Hal ton Hills Sandy a partner In a large fruit and grocery store on Highway in had hoped to locate a similar grocery operation on the high way between Georgetown and Acton He found however hat the planning board was more concerned with growing fruits and vegetables than selling Mr Drags through his spokesman John had requested approval for re- of two lots in Clergy Comments ss Revelations By Ft Otger Pastor of Holy Cress Catholic Church If revelation were a collection of eternal and necessary truths concerning God the soul and im mortality tbe proper style of theological speech would not differ from that of philosophy If the stuff of revelation were common historical facts theology could speak the language of ordinary history But revelation bas to do with the bidden God and the ways in which He calls man Into union with Himself Its doctrine is therefore sacred doctrine its history sacred history At every point the subject matter of theology touches on mystery And how can mystery be expressed Unlike historical or abstract truth mystery cannot be described or positively defined It can only be evoked Religious languages must contrive to point beyond itself and to summon up In some fashion the gracious ex perience of the mystery with which It deals The Bible employs a great variety of literary forms It Is a small library containing historical records poetic effusions theological meditations dramatic dialogues hortatory epistles etc But in practically every biblical book we And exceptionally vivid and imaginative speech The inspired imagery of the Bible may surely be reckoned as one of tbe main sources of Its spiritual power The biblical images astonish our expectations grip our at tention challenge our receptivity haunt our memory stir our affection and transform our attitudes While the Bible is not lacking in doctrine Its language suggests far more about God and His ways with man than It conveys by express concepts The central theme of both the Old and New Testaments Is quite evidently the great series of mighty deeds by which God manifested His mercy His loving power and His enduring fidelity toward the people of His choice These deeds may be called Gods gestures in history and like human gestures they are symbolic The divine deed par excellence Is the miracle A miracle according to the biblical conception is a signevent in which a properly attuned religious consciousness can recogniw so to speak the handwriting of God The only way we can see this by reading the Bible It Is good for us to set aside a few minutes each day to read and try to understand the Bible Only by doing this can we realty see the work of God and the reason behind it ELKS BINGO EVERY MONDAY AT PM AT THE CREDIT

regulations state that any Farmer can set up a market to sell his own produce Mr has already begun construction on the building The planning board while budging slightly didnt give Mr what he had hoped or They agreed that the property could be for commercial use but only for certain Hems and only for part of the property Dick Howltt objected to the property being given a total highway commercial Noting that such toning could allow a motel or gas station to be built on he land Councillor concluded It takes in too After Mr had stated that a market such as the Large Town Festival fruit market on the was what was planned for the site Councillor Roy Booth warned We could be cresting another Knob H1U Farms A compromise which Mr Lyonde admitted was not totally to his liking was worked cut by the planning board The commercial designation will be given to he property but only for the sale of fruits vegetables sod groceries Following an objection by Councillor Len Cose to the entire two lots being given the designation the planning board also controlled the of the market by allowing only one lot to be used for the market while the other must remain in production That Is good agricultural land intended for growing fruits and vegetables We dont wont to end up with a store spread across it Georgetown fills one truck for Vietnamese People do care Within hours of issuing

their first five ton truck of aid Viet Nam Heartbeat is aimed at helping the over refugee families In Montreal many of whom came to Canada with literally one suitcase per family Alliance Pastors and

refugees are somewhat smaller in stature the smaller sizes of clothing are needed Any donations will be picked up If you call either or Pastor Ralph also pointed out that many Alliance Churches in Ontario are In volved In this project However of all the churches of the same size as Georgetowns none have collected as much material as the Georgetown Alliance Church This only goes to show that Georgetown Is concerned and willing to help Pastor Ralph wished to IF NOT BY POLE THEN BY HAND Barbie thank the community and all VanderVelde tries her hand at fishing for the young people of the fish singlehanded Keeping watch for any Georgetown Alliance Church prospective biters is Cindy Vanbodegom and of the Baptist Church for the great amount of work they put forth A nice thing I have found out about Georgetown Is that tbe people really do care stated the delighted Pastor Bath girls were with their families at tbe Terra Conservation Area last weekend for the family reunion After 13 years of dedicated operation serving over regular customers the Rex- on Highway locked their doors for the last time Thursday evening Dave proprietor of for the past five decided that he needed more lime for private life You have to devote a lot of lime to running a service station Its been five years of many long hours stated Dave However It was not only the long hours involved which persuaded Dave to close up shop The day of the service station as we know It It coming to an end So just decided that the time to make a move la now explained Dove station or his many customers The only thing 111 miss are all the people Ive met and dealt with over the years Ive met so many nice people and I hope Ill be seeing them all from time to time Dave will be taking over the position of service manager at

missed In Georgetown Sargent Road to begin in weeks Sargent Road residents will be- much happier very shortly The town has received word that the ministry of tran sportation and com munications has approved work on Sargent Road Under terms of the approval work must begin within two weeks Thus Sargent Road will begin to take a turn for the better by August Changing part of town from industrial zone to residential A residential area by any other name is a manufac turing zone According to Georgetowns official zoning bylaw it could be A number or areas throughout the town are of ficially zoned for manufac turing purposes and yet are actually well populated residential areas However slowly but surely the planning department is bringing of ficially and actually Into line One such area is located In the strip north of the and Domtar plants and south It includes homes fronting on Academy College and John Streets Although it Is officially zoned for M2 Industrial purposes the only manufacturing firm located there is DieMold Tool Ltd The rest consists largely of single family homes which should be located in an Ron Burnett assistant planner for the town told the subsidiary planning board last week that that particular area Is Just one of many the plan ning department would like to see rezoned to their actual instead of official use Many such rezoning amendments will be Included In the new Official Plan for all of Hills which Mr Burnett noted Is presently being worked on by the department Its expected that the towns new Official Plan could be ready sometime late this year still a fair distance down the pipe said Mr Burnett In the meantime he added planning depart ment will be considering Incorrectly labelled areas on an ongoing process Councillor Roy Booth questioned the advisability of applying to Ontario Municipal Board for a number of separate requests Instead of Just presenting the completed Official Plan when its ready Whit youre talking about could affect about SO areas of town To put through 50 separate amend ments could take a long time The planning board however decided to proceed with work on a rezoning bylaw for the Academy College and John Streets area It could be embarrassing If someone came along and Asked to put an Industry In there said Councillor Era Hyde Alva Allen students pass piano tests Town police wait for Moped
