"A Family Tradition for 127 Years" Letters to the editor Why I'm supporting R ybka-Becker To the Editor: People keep asking why I have an NDP sign supporting Lucy Rybka-Becker on my lawn. It isn't just because I agree with NDP policies on the free trade and NAFTA deals, fair taxation, drugs and medi- care, creating jobs, and so on. Nor is it simply because the NDP seems to be the only major party even bothering to recog- nize the environment as an is- sue in this campaign with their policy paper, "Environmental- ly-Aware Policies Create Jobs and Strengthen the Economy". The Liberals and Conservatives are not even paying lip service to the environment, a surpris- ing oversight given the example of the cod fishery and its lesson that, without a healthy environ- ment, there is no economy. Another reason I like the NDP is that Audrey McLaugh- lin seems to be a sincere person with a genuine understanding of the kinds of problems faced E------------ = H 2 a = AfterLoss Learning bow to cope with grief Questions 8& Answers about grief recovery* Q. I am several months past my loss now. Most days I do very well and I feel that I'm working through my grief. Then all of a sudden I become overwhelmed. Is this normal? A. Certainly. Grief can be analogous to waves hitting on the shore. At first, the waves are large and power- | ful and they knock us down. They can keep us down for awhile, too. As we work through our grief, the waves begin to subside to a degree. When we haven't noticed any waves for a while, we know that we are succeeding in looking for- ward and rebuilding our lives. If we know this is nor- mal and part of our grief process, we can expect fewer of them in our future. *Questions from bereavement classes are answered here by the editor of After Loss, the month- ly grief-recovery help letter.

She does not promise to bring back "the good old days", a futile aim if ever there was one in this rapidly-changing world. She knows an issue as complicated as crime cannot be solved by simply "getting tougher", and as an ex-parole officer, I appre- ciate her awareness that the causes of crime must be ad- dressed in our own communi ties. People seem suspicious of Mrs. McLaughlin because she is decent and mild-mannered, not the dog-eat-dog type of politi- cian we have become accus- tomed to. She does not have a cosy relationship with big busi- ness, but empathizes instead with regular folks. She offers a new style of leadership which is Library offers "Amnesty" for "return of over $6,700 worth of overdue and lost books Mysteries are missing as so are Picture Books, Science not mere showmanship, and she is a consensus-builder who seeks to unite, rather than di- vide. Isn't this the kind of lead- er Canadians should be getting excited about? As long as we continue to vote for candidates who are one is- sue wonders, who promise easy answers to complex problems, and whom we chose on the ba- sis of "sound bites", we will con- tinue to get the kind of govern- ment we deserve. On Oct. 25, I will vote for Lucy Rybka- Becker and the NDP, because I honestly believe they best rep- resent the majority of Canadi- ans. : Janet Banting Greenbank, Ontario Fiction, Talking books and even four volumes of Encyclopedia! In fact the Scugog Memorial Public Library has more than $6,700 worth of books "overdue" or "lost." Since Scugog Library, your library, cherishes every volume and needs every missing title to serve the readers of this com- munity, we urge everyone to search the corners and shelves to find the lost and overdue items. In order to make this task as painless as possible, the Scugog Public Library is having and Amnesty Period, from October 4 - 15. - No fines and plenty of thanks. CT The library asks that those: returning items, instead, bring a non-perishable food item for the Scugog Food Bank. Scugog Public Library urges everyone to help fill the shelves, and also the Food Bank. ve 4 door, 4 cyl, auto, air, 51,000km/31,875mi---- hY "4 door, V6, auto, air, 119,000lan/74,375mi- WILD WILLY'S * Western Wear ° "Spittin' Distance" from KooKoo Bananas Xl Sats Boots, Ji.
