DID FARM RADICALS ACT ILLEGALLY? It would certainly appear that the Canadian Farmers Survival Association which seized farm equipment equipment up for auction and then held their own penny auction auction to then disperse the equipment throughout the neighbourhood were skating on thin ice. The incident happened last week when the Toronto-Dominion Bank was about to auction $100,000 worth of eguipment to recover some monies on a $450,000 loan to a Palmerston area farmer. The bank has since stated that the farmer have taken the law into their own hands. It would appear that such has been the case arid it does set a precident that cannot continue. If one were to borrow money from a bank to purchase an automobile and then sold that auto with lien attached to prevent the bank from reclaiming it on a defaulted loan, criminal charges would follow. There is no doubt that lending institutions do have considerable pressure applied in issuing loans and in some cases there is little hope of repayment. The Ontario Ontario Far, Adjustment Assistance Review Board, has. charged that lending institutions do offer money to farmers without a solid plan for repayment. The Board claims of a review of 3500 farmers at least 1000 are in difficult financial straights. The actions of the Survival Association is not the answer for it can only hurt other farmers who have a legitimate cause for loans and a plan of repayment. One would also question how such actions can be condoned. Does the law and government shy away from some actions that do seem to rise in some of the back concessions. REVISING HAMLET REGULATIONS The Town of Newcastle council has been asked to reconsider the regulations set forth in Hamlet plans that require a municipal-type water system be installed for residential development. The conditions do relate to conditions setforth by the Regional Official Plan and to this point have been upheld where a growth factor was a consideration in hamlets. If the request is supported by the Town of Newcasle then it will be necessary to ammend the Regional Hamlet Official Plan. It has been pointed out to council that a municipal-type water system is just too costly in today's economy and that cost for residential building can be reduced by allowing individual wells on larger lots. No doubt there are a n,umber of factors to be considered but it should not be forgotten that a water supply problem of a serious nature does exist in Newtonville where individual wellg supply the source of household water. It is going to be a-costly venture for citizens in that particular area to rectify the problem. One thing that can be assured through # a municipal-type system of water supply is\the fact that safe water will continue to be supplied over the years. 'This fact should not be forgotten in any moÿe to change the stand of this requirement.

Kendal News The clitter Team: "Loose the bridles, let them go into the wide and trackless snow. Sleigh bells peal and runners lift over waves of blizzard- drift: Spinning vapour clouds and clings To the buckles, bars and rings; Frosted white from throat to hip Beads of ice on 1 lash and lip: Heads upflung and mettle: crowned. " Limps that spurn the swirling ground. How those stifles bulge and flow With each mighty driving blow! Here goes life and fiery heart Winter's weary woes depart, Vanquished by the blood that sings Through the veins of equine kings." By: Stanley Harrison Poet of the Qu'appelle Valley copied from "Fifty Mighty Men", by Grant MacEwan. Sunday, Feb. 13th was a perfect winter's day to enjoy à cutter ride. However there was no snow. The Atlantic Seaboard had too much, three feet of snow or more. On Sunday morning Rev. A. Tizzard continued his series of sermons. Today he read the letter to the church at Thyatira Rev. 2: 18-29. Thyatira was a small town on a trade route. Paul on his missionary journey had joined joined a group of Jewish ladies who met for prayer at the waterfront. They were led by Lydia a seller of purple of the city of Thyatira. She became a Christian and so did the others. She invited Paul and Timothy to her home Acts 16: 14 and 15. So the Christians Christians here know the teachings of Paul about Christ and they had the old Testament. They did the best with what they had. From this letter we learn they are praised for their good works. "I know thy works of love and service and faith and patience." There will be a reward for the faithful. Punishment for the unfaithful. Some allowed Zezebel who was not a good woman to lead them astray. They followed her teachings and did evil. They shall be broken to shivers as the vessels of a potter v. 27. To the faithful he says: I will give him the morning star, v 28. This winter's Mother used to sing the hymn. Will there be any stars any stars in my crown When I wake with the blessed In that mansion of rest will there be any stars in my crown. .
