editors mail building perfect for preschool use dear editor i find it particularly insult ing to the intelligence of com munity residents that the town is trying to decide other uses for the womens insti tute on woodbine ave the building consists of a small cloakroom a large open area a kitchen a stage and a basement workshop what other uses could there be for such a building let us talk about the real estate issue the sale of the municipal offices as well as the property on which the his torical building stands we are all aware that the property would be more desir able to a purchaser with the addition of a second access off woodbine ave the access would of course be buttonville cres just north of the womens institute that lane now gives access to st johns cemetery behind the building as well as houses and the ravine all of the above would no doubt be destroyed by any de velopment in that area the building is perfect for the uses that it now houses to change the site would destroy a community landmark and a vital community service please do not destroy a use ful historical building just for the sake of a more lucrative offer on your current prop erty let markham lead the way in the province as it has over other issues in its concern for our children do not destroy an excellent preschool and its facility and then moan about a shortage of space to the province here is an opportunity to set an example in the province with your concern for pre school children dont wait for a federal then provincial study when the opportunity exists to do somethig positive now all the groups involved with the womens institute will re member for many years the action that is taken by council in this matter perhaps that should be your first thought while deep in contemplation at the

ter applause and cheers two standing ovations compliments to the cast and ourselves rebook ings by guests and dozens of in quiries about future shows i am forced to conclude that only by plugging her ears closing her eyes and holding her nose at this affront to her theatrical sensitvi- ty could ms wyatt have re mained oblivious to the audi ences enthusiastic response ms wyatts capacity to assess and subsequently recommend en- tertainment to your readers should be seriously questioned perhaps the key word is enter tainment having a wonderful time wish you were her is by no means a literary classic but neither are such box office hits as no sex please were british move over mrs markham and not now darling these and many others employ with varying skill the same im probable situations
