W. Gossard Co. Limited which declares an intention to clear the record of the labour dis pute between the ILL.G.W.U. and Gossards Port Perry operation. However, far from clearing anything the author has fur- ther clouded the record of the Company in this dispute by misrepresenting facts, making misleading state ments and downright prevari- cation of the truth. Were it not for the fact that a strike is a serious matter, this ad vertisement of the Gossard Company would draw the laughs it really deserves. The accompanying advertisement is not comical, not the least bit amusing, rather it is tragic, pitiable, that a group of women could be induced to sign their names to such a document. We feel there is no useful purpose to be served in ac- cusing, denying, or in re criminations at this time. The Union's position is, that the "only way that the general public can learn the real truth as to what has happen- ed, what is happening. isto call a special meeting for that purpose. Accordingly the Union has rented the Legion Hall in Port Perry where on Wednesday, the first day of November, 1967 at 8.00 p.m. a public indigna- tion meeting will be held. The strikers will be there, the Union officials will be there, if you are interested, you will be there. Everyone is invited and will be wel come. Respectfully yours, J. W. Kitts, Director of Organizing ILL.G.W.U, INVEST NOW 6% VICTORIA and GREY TRUST Guaranteed Investments Interest is payable half yearly or may be left to compound EMMERSON INSURANCE AGENCY LIMITED 191 Queen St. Port Perry Telephone 985-7306 TENDERS VILLAGE OF PORT PERRY | SEALED TENDERS will be received by Councii for a quotation on fuel oil requirements and service, for the Village of Port Perry, including the Community Memorial Arena, for a period of ONE year starting November 15th, 1967.

J J J Autumn is Here The Autumn is here Lovely time of the year, All the rich colours, Golden rusty hues, That seem to dazzle with beauty As seems to be their duty, All the works of spring, The toiling of summer And the fading of the lovely flowers, Soon Christmas will coine, Bringing joy and sorrow to some, But mostly joy to everyone. So let us greet the seasons as they come and go As life is short as well w all know. : HE'S COMING! There - seems to be some confusion in the minds of the public as to where and when they may legally carry liquor. Liquor of course in. cludes 'beer, wine, hard li quor, or any beverage con- taining alcohol. Let us suppose that you purchase a case of beer from the Brewer's Warehouse. Af- ter placing it in your car it must not be opened or taken out until you have reached your place of residence. Re: sidence in this instance means anywhere you are ac- tually living. This could in. clude your cottage, tent, motel room, house, or any place you are at least spend. ing the night. This sounds simple enough but it raises a number of questions. How, for instance, could you legally take liquor to a "bring your own" party? Answer, you can't, unless of! course arrangements have been made for your sleeping accommodations after the party. It is possible for you to make a gift of liquor to the* host, however, the only legal way for him to get possession of it would be to come to your residence and then re- turn to his residence with the liquor A; If the. whens and wheres of transporting liquor are confusing you, don't just give up. Make it a point to set the facts straight in your mind and don't just hope yo never encounter any prob- lems with the police. The Liquor Control Act is an .Act with real teeth in it. Being found illegally trans- porting liquor is an arrest able offence and the pengl ties provided are prohibitive. Rodd was born in 1875 at |!
