When function and form are treated as one, engineering is elevated to an art form. The all-new Mazda6 is the product of engineer and designer working in unison, from start to finish, daring to reimagine the automobile as a whole. It is the true definition of the modern sports sedan, because contrary to what convention may think, beauty is more than skin deep. And performance is more than an emblem. They're everything underneath. Achilles Mazda of Milton REFINANCING? PURCHASING? BOBWOODS, Broker (905) 877-1490 360 Guelph St., Georgetown Five Year Fixed FSCO #10259 Division of 1490845 Ont.

An attempt by the Halton Dis- trict School Board's trustee for Halton Hills to have a first name added to the school failed at the board table at Wednesday's board meeting. Alice Strachan had suggested the Danby Road school in George- town be renamed Ethel Gardiner Public School. The kindergarten-Grade 8 school, which opened in 2007, is named for Ethel Gardiner, a long- time member of the Halton board who was a teacher for 39 years and a school board trustee for north Halton for 11 years, includ- ing six terms as board chair. She was the recipient of the provincial Dr. Harry Paikin Award of Merit and the Halton District School Board Award of Excel- lence for her contributions to public education. Gardiner died of cancer on June 5, 2007 at the age of 69. In a recorded vote Wednesday, Strachan's motion lost on a 5-5 tie. Voting in favour of adding the name Ethel to the school were Strachan, Oakville trustee Kelly Amos, Milton trustee Donna Dan- ielli and Burlington trustees Amy Collard and Kristen Lochhead. Voting against were Burl- ington's Jennifer Hlusko and Dianna Bower, Oakville's Ann Harvey Hope and Kathryn Bate- man-Olmstead, and Milton's Nan- cy MacNeill. Oakville trustee Don Vrooman was absent. "I will express my disappoint- ment.... I will be looking at other ways to bring this (name change) back," to the board, said Strachan. See ETHEL, pg. 3 What's in a name? Not Ethel!
