Good Samaritan alerts woman Scugog resident Evelyn Pros- ser was wakened by a passerby Wednesday morning to warn her that her hydro was out. According to Mrs. Prosser, the wires from the main pole to her house had burst into flames. She stated that a young man driving by her house on his way to work (between 6a.m.- 6:30a.m.) noticed the wires and worried the owners may be asleep. Mrs. Prosser tried to contact Ontario Hydro but could not reach them. She called Bell Canada, and remarked that the operators were more than help- ul. Scugog Fire Department Hall 2 was alerted and the fire- men watched over the house until Ontario Hydro arrived and replaced the wires. The damage was corrected by 10:30a.m. Mrs. Prosser is an elderly lady who lives alone and was understandably upset and ner- vous and said she did not get a chance to thank the passerby properly, or get his name. The next day Mrs. Prosser it's a Jungle out there. Epsom Public School students cel- ebrated Jungle Day on Friday. The students enjoyed jungle treats, jungle plays and jungle music during the day long event. Pictured above, straight out of the jungle are (front, from left) Ross Gower, Gralg Evans, Sarah Harper (back row) Jill MacDonald, Evan Gower and Paige Florence. WHAT? A PESTICIDE YOU CAN DRINK?
