PUTTING THE FOCUS ON QUALITY AT A COMPETITIVE PRICE 907 SIMCOE ST. N., Oshawa (416) 576-5123 There is an evolution currently underway in the photography in- dustry as today's casual amateur photographer now has a choice far beyond the pocket cameras of 10 years ago. Most manufacturers now market a variety of "aim and shoot" cameras which give the amateur near professional results at a much lower price. Many feature autofocus, automatic film winding and loading, and auto adjustment to coincide with lighting conditions so that achieving quality pictures is truly simplistic. If you are interested in looking at the point-and-shoot systems or perhaps have upgraded to the 35mm SLR cameras that can offer more versatility, it would make good sense to visit a specialty firm like ROBERT ALDSWORTH PHOTO WORLD. Owner ROBERT ALDSWORTH has over 30 years of experience as a portrait photographer and opened his present retail store in Jyne of 1979. He is assisted by his daughter / co-owner KATHY, who along with the staff, have tried to feature all the equipment and services you should ever need under one roof.

CASEY'S BAR & GRILL has it all.

We credit the management and an efficient staff for keeping things running smoothly to assure customers of a pleasant stay.

CASEY'S features a DJ and dancing nightly, and have become known as one of the area's popular night spots. There is a large bar area with brass rails, comfortable bar stools, and glass tiffany style lamps. ! Although the prices are more than reasonable, the quality and quan- tity of food is more than you expect. Upon every visit to CASEY'S we have enjoyed hot homestyle soups, crisp salads and tasty chicken dishes such as chicken fingers, wings and sandwiches, as well as 1/2 Ib. specialty burgers, hot dog plates, Oriental and the new Mex-Tex menu, New York cut steaks and super stacked sandwiches. The restaurant features daily specials, is open 7 days a week, and licens- ed under the L.L.B.O. We highly recommend CASEY'S, where you will find great food and hospitality you will long remember.

Along with the addition of an angled island, extended countertops, a second sink, and built-in space savers, THE KITCHEN PLACE LTD. can custom design and install traditional or European styled kitchens and plan them to create a more pleasurable and practical kitchen environment. THE KITCHEN PLACE LTD. was originally established in 1963 b Joe and Vera Binns, and is today directed by their son, BRIAN BINNS who has over 20 years of experience in the kitchen design field.
