Between You and Me By RUTHl COLES An update< on s erviees Today an update on a few, Whitby services for newcomers and they are still coming; a few facts about our town. We have one of the finest fire departments in Canada, flot Ontario but Canada. Everyone may Iearn about our firefighters .by calling Éther fire station, the Brock Street South station or the one Just off Thickson Road North. To see the equipment and to have a knowledgeable staff member explain its function gives one a great sense of security and well being. Rescue unit 33 carnies auxilary equipment such as ventilators, splints and sawYs which eut through concrete and steel. This unit supplements the two, pumpers when rescues and disasters are involved and is used as a back-up unit for other types of emergencies such as drownings and carnies dragg- ing equipment, ropes, etc. Cleanup supplies such as vacuums are carried to bring things back to order as far as Possible' to the state prior to the fire. For rural areas a water tanker was purchased in 1975 which can carry 1,500 gallons ofwater. When there is ýpersonal injury the ambulance Îpeople are notified. The fire department carnies equipment for heart, breathing or stroke victims; resuscitators and se on. Fire department, ambu- lance, hydro and police ail work together. There is a central computer which notifies ail branches in a split second and traffie lights are also controlled within a certain area of the town when'there is an emergency. Do take your children and anyone who is interest- ed te the fine station and set your mmnd at ease. Also you can pick up a phone sticker. .We have a wonderful library in Whitby witb many services, including a free information service. What d oyou want to know?

I can honpstly sayîI thlnk In comparison wlth other hospitals it la tops. Cal la and see for yourself, I thlnk you wil be impressed. There is always idle talk and rumours about hospitals. Don't take it in, make your own judgments. I say this, not about our own hospitals but ail hospitals in general. The Whitby Arts Station is becoming veny weil known in our community and far afield., Built in 1903, mhe Whitby Railway Station censidered to be one of tme finest examples 0f Victonian railway ar- chitecture was constnucted to serve as the Whitby Junction for the Grand Trunk Railway Line.. Although slated for demolition in 1970, the Station, was saved by Whitby Arts Incorporated, a non- profit group of dedicated citizens. For information eall Linda Poulicik, the director of the gailery. She will tell youabout mernberships, ail the ongoing social happenings and ail the art shows. So many other services, we have just touched mhe' fringe. Anomher time we~il try.and cover' them ail. New my dedication is te, spring house cleaning and hopefuily working in the garden within a few short- weeks. 'One can'always hope. This past week someone teld me about a new store in Whitby. Someday in the not too dlistant future-I hope te write about it because it is terriblyexciting and others must feel that way tee, because on Satur- days people are lined up wall te wall. Ail I will tel you now is that it wiil take you back 50 or 60 years at less cost than you would believe. The decor is very modem but the contents.are sold as they wene many years age. A store keeper told me the other day that someone in Toronto had been reading Between Yen and Me and drove into Whitby from the highway te browse around. The person unknown te me or te anyone I know did browse and shopped too. Se as I have writ- ten in, regard'te shops in our town, if word gets around people will corne fnom ail over. Instead 0f geing far a field as many of us have done te browse and shop let's start the flow ceming this way. I still like the sound of "Whitby-By-the- Lake"~. Only, of course, for the marina area.- Port Whitby must remain because it gees way back in, time but maybe the two could somehow be incon- porated. The marina is anether must for newcomers te in- vestigate. I am told it wiil be the very best from Montreal te Toronto'. Just take a drive or a strol down and look'around. Hugh Burns, the manager, is generally on hand.. He dan fuilyen in on anything you want te know. Today during the first week of March a huge ship is anchored eut on the lake waiting te dock at Oshawa. This means spring is about te, spring. ALLURE ELECTROLYSIS Rid yourself of unwanted hair permanently. Fo'r f ree consultation î~ te answer your questions on electrolysis .I CALL 725-4321 ...
