A spokesperson for the Whitby OPP office said there were no serious accidents on the provincial highways through Scugog Township over the weekend. Traditionally, the Labour Day weekend has been noted for heavy traffic on the roads and highways, but that trend changed downwards this year. In fact, this trend has been noticed during all of the civic holiday weekends this summer along with a decrease in the number of serious accidents. Also this summer for the first time in several years, there were no drownings or fatal boating accidents on Lake Scugog. Water Softener Rental $ 1 27° PER MONTH Rental Stays the Same...

I was surprised after read- ing last weeks news column that our correspondent Mrs. Sharron Fisher has resigned from this post. Sharron has assumed a new position with a real estate firm in Port Perry and we all wish her the best in this new field of work. Barb and I are certainly going to miss you, Sharron as are all of our readers. Now I'm going to have to drag out my soap-box and drum up some enthusiasm and see if we can locate another willing soul to help Barb and I compile our weekly column. If you would be interested in assisting us with writing the news we would be delighted to hear from you. Having three correspondents makes it easier on each one of us so please give this request serious consideration. Mrs. Marion Durward has recently returned from a marvelous bus excursion through the western pro- vinces to Vancouver Island with her sister, Mrs. Muriel Gibson of Greenbank.

During these very difficult economic times we folks are not the only ones struggling to make ends meet - our local church has also been feeling the pinch. As is often found in small communities when there is a problem everyone rallies around to support the individual or the institution who is in need. I believe the term used to describe this is called "community spirit". This certainly has proven to be in full force in the Sea- grave area. The Mariposa Old-Timers ball team recently challenged the CHOO Country Railroader to a ball game in our local park with the proceeds going to the Seagrave United Church.

In addition to the groups above several local citizens gave very generous amount to help restore our church treasury to better health. The Board of Stewards and our treasurer Mr. Bert Wanamaker wish to convey their deepest appreciation to everyone for the wonderful response that has been shown during this last month or so.
