Regardless of size, or geographical location, each of us resides in a small 'community'. Whether you commute tg the downtown core of a huge metropolis, or work the fields in a rural setting, the 'lives of Ontario residents revolve around a smaller, close-knit, inner community in which family life is focused. Our responsibility, as the media voice for this area, is to keep you informed about what is happening in the community each week... news and sports stories provide our readers with information about local people and events; and the advertisements within these pages provide readers with information about products, promotions and entertainment being offered by local merchants. The most important element of any small community is the people who live in it. Your community newspaper tracks their lives from the first breath: .birth announcements, Grade Four spelling bee winner, Girl-Guide Gold Cord, minor league hockey champion, graduation, engagement, wedding, career advancement, new business venture, occasional setbacks, tragic accident, disastrous plant closing; new industry in town, impact of last week's decision by local council on taxes, and so on. Throughout your entire life, the commun- ity's newspaper is there, monitoring and reporting the ups and downs of the community and its citizens.f There's a lot of bad news these days.

Every nominee receives a certificate and up to 12 individuals and one group arethe recipients of -an award presented by the Lieutenant Governor at the annual OCNA convention. The selection of the "Ontario Junior Citizens" is incredibly difficult...because every single nominee is a credit to their community, and to us all. Many saved lives. Many organized com- munity activities which paid enormous dividends for fellow citizens. Many battled tremendous physical handicaps, or terminal illnesses in exemplary manner, helping to ease the pain and suffering of others. They are all heroes in their own right. They serve as outstanding examples of how life in a small community should be lived. They merit the recognition the community newspapers of Ontario are prepared to give them. They deserve your support. We ask for a moment of your time. Do you know.a young person who might qualify for this type of recognition? Contact this newspaper for a nomination form. Help us to say "thanks" to some.youngster who deserves it. More information is included on the nomination form, and we'll be happy to answer any questions you might have. 1 m
