EXAMPLE - It was a bit startling to turn on the television Monday night to discover what was going on at town council, only to see them all puffing and grunting through an energetic exercise period. Congratulations Congratulations arc in store for their Participaction endeavor and they've certainly set a fine example for Town of Newcastle citizens to follow today when they spend their 15 minutes of activity and phone 623- 3392 or 623-5728 to report. It's amazing how long 15 minutes is when you are doing some of those exercises. Maybe we should encourage councillors to start every council meeting with a warm up. It would certainly shorten the rest of the meeting, as long as die press didn't have to join in. 80TH BIRTHDAY - While we're talking about birthdays, we would would be remiss if we didn't congratulate the I.O.O.F. # 436 Lodge in Orono for reaching its 80th anniversary.
