The council decision came in response response to a letter from James Slyfield, an RR 1 Bowmanville resident. resident. In his letter Mr. Slyfield suggests the selection of three or four sites in Bowmanville's downtown downtown business centre which would be developed as indoor malls. "My proposal, which I do not claim to be either original or unique, has been prompted by an enlightened approach taken some time ago by the established retail businesses of Elmira, Ontario; they revitalized their business core by building their own indoor shopping complex," Mr. Slyfield writes. Council was receptive to the ideas outlined by Mr. Slyfield. "These points have merit," said moved to refer the letter to the planning department for a report.

Recommendations Recommendations made by council in committee committee last week, regarding garbage collection in the municipality, were almost totally reversed at Monday's council meeting. Council members backed away from a decision to allow the Town's Public Works Department to provide provide garbage collection service in Orono and Newcastle Village with its own personnel and equipment. Instead, council voted to table the proposal • and asked staff to negotiate a three month extension of the current contract with Brown- ing-Ferris Industries. Councillor Diane Hamre maintained maintained her position in favor of the original proposal: "We have got a well qualified staff who have researched researched and put a report and a recommendation recommendation before us.

Because of the advance in publication, all news and advertising copy must be received much earlier than is normal, so our staff can put it all together during the weekend. Our business office will be open on Tuesday, Dec. 24th, closed on Dec. 25th and 26th Boxing Day. Then, we'll follow the same pattern for the New Year's edition, except that the day following New Year's, Jan. 2nd will be a normal business day. ON THE LOOSE -- Metro Toronto Zoo has several Timber wolves roaming the area, and we've just received a phone call concerning a rabid wolf, presumably of the smaller brush variety, that has been killing cats and at least one dog in and around Millbrook. So far, it hasn't been caught, but probably many area hunters are doing their utmost to track it down before it attacks a human. I NATIVITY -- We draw to readers attention, the forthcoming 'Living' Nativity Scene taking place outside St. Paul's United Church Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday, Dec. 20 to 23 inclusive at 7:30 each evening. With any kind of luck, they will have much milder weather than was the case at the Liberty Pentecostal Church last weekend, especially especially for that Saturday evening performance. At both churches, the participants in the organizing and presenting functions of the event have gone to a great deal of effort and are to be congratulated for their ingenuity. OPEN HOUSE -- This Friday, from 10 to noon and 1 to 3 p.m. Community Care, C.I.V.P. and the Y.W. C.A. at their headquarters, 80 King Street West, will be holding a Christmas Open House, complete with refreshments. CONCERTS -- All this week, school Christmas concerts are being held all over the area, presentations are being made and everybody is getting into the Christmas spirit, doing last minute shopping and getting supplies in to be ready for an influx of hungry visitors next week. It's a busy time and the snow and ice isn't making things any easier for getting around. So far, many local citizens haven't done any shovelling of their walks, which make walking tough on their neighbors. DISAPPEARING PARCEL -- Another mysterious mailing problem was experienced by Len Clement of Hancock Road this week. He, could see that someone had left a fair-sized parcel in his mailbox, but didn't rush out to get it and when he did, the parcel had disappeared. His main concern is that whoever put the parcel in the box may wonder why he or she doesn't get a thank you card later. CONCERT -- All the Bowmanville High School bands will be in action Thursday night at the school when they present their Christmas concert. Si NO CARD -- Joe Cuddahee, Prospect Street, tells us that he received an envelope in the mail today, properly stamped and addressed, and about the size of most Christmas card envelopes. But, there was a problem. When he opened it, there was nothing inside. inside. He doesn't know where it came from or who sent it, but it certainly is one way to save money on cards, just buy a few envelopes and send them along. If you really want to be cheap, don't put on a stamp and the receiver will have to pay double the postage to find out there's nothing inside. Joe thought it was hilarious and now he's trying to find out who. sent it. ------ x x mwwwit- i'Mm Shepherds Rehearse Roles for Living Nativity Scene at St. Paul's St. Paul's United Church in Bowmanville is giving its annual presentation of a "Living Nativity", on December 20th through December 23rcl.
