circulation canadian community newspapers association and ontario weekly news papers association second class mail registration number 0s96 editorial site visits aid decision making no single project in whitchurch stouffviue has aroused so much interest and in some cases enthusiasm than the application before planning committee to develop a 90acre mobile home park near gormley this office has been besieged by calls mainly from people in the area wishing more information on the venture we assured each that a start on the development was not contemplated to morrow and perhaps never the committee expected to deal with the request appears wary and well it might be for not only is it a first for the town on a permanent basis but it represents in potential numbers of people a sizeable hamlet on wheels in a situation such as this we feel it would be wise for all members not one or even a committee of three to visit such a site and observe firsthand its operation at the same time the administrator or members of his staff could check with the host municipality and learn the financial responsibilities services etc involved with this information plus whatever assistance could be forthcoming from the region local planners would be in a better position to discuss all aspects of the application intelligently as it is there are too many questions and too few answers airport inquiry too late federal transport minister donald jamieson plans to initiate proceedings for a public hearing into we presume all aspects of the proposed international airport destined for a site in rural pickering township the decision while lauded by some including pop chairman dr charles godfrey is in our opinion suspect first the announcement only one day preceeding the call for a general election makes us wonder if the government is attempting temporarily at least to pacify a crosssection of airport op ponents and win them back to the fold secondly the suggestion of an inquiry after expropriation proceedings have been started makes no sense at all thirdly after seven months to reopen debate on choice of the pickering site is nothing short of ludicrous we do not oppose a public hearing on an issue so important as this in fact we welcome it but before expropriation proceedings are started not after further to that the hearing should be restricted to need only need for two major air terminals fifty miles apart this in our opinion has not been proved it should be however if the inquiry is to be used as a battle ground for argument on site choices the original one and alternates then we say the governments stand both federally and provincially is extremely weak and the proposed project should be scrapped entirely coffee fh ea anow v0ney editor mail dear sir i would like to congratulate you on your editorial of aug 31 entitled adding insult to injury now that whitchurch stouffviue has some control of the approach to the village one would expect a planning board worthy of the name to question any type of business that would not add to the main approach to the village sure its a mess as it is but why run over the dog because the cat got hit to permit the installation of elevated oil tanks only 1200 feet from the ponderosa subdivision would be in my opinion ridiculous whatever goes in that area now will serve as a guide to what will come later and make no mistake the bush will not hide everything from view kids play in it continually and its been on fire twice recently one passing thought eldred king if you have any brothers let them step forward also bert carey rr4 stouffviue editors note planning committee has since reversed its decision on the ap plication dear sir re editorial adding insult to injury i am in full agreement with the above mentioned article since i am a property owner approx 300 feet adjacent to the proposed installation of two 20000 gallons fuel containers and i intend to oppose any such installation in my opinion it would devaluate all the surrounding properties nobody with common sense would intend to erect any building residential in dustrial or commercial near fuel tanks it would be a very potential danger to the neighbourhood if through any mishaps such as an explosion a fire should occur i would like to point out that the pon derosa subdivision would be only about 1200 feet from the fuel tanks and between those two points are about 600 feet bushland and 600 feet hayfield i dont think i have to explain in details to the people of the subdivision and to the surrounding neighbours how fast a fuel explosion fire could spread into their homes and not to mention the en vironmental damage which could arise ursula gojkovic stouffviue heise hill public school ss no 7 markham twp 1937 this photo will

boynton ar- thur williamson lawrence boynton paul jones dear sir your recent editorial aug 10 under the heading mr bales will have to go was certainly in the public interest and the offer by the said mr bales to turn over his 100000 profit to charity does not alter this stand why i wonder have we been denied a public enquiry into the entire matter since we the public pay we also the public should be given all the facts loretta mcnab myrtle ave toronto more are asking why work by ch nolan more and more people are asking the question why work as the numbers continue to grow we begin to wonder just how many such people we can afford the question came out prominently this past week when it was revealed that the unemployment tax pool is running dry in fact it has completely dried up and will require a transfusion directly out of taxpayers pockets it should be remembered that when the federal government increased unem ployment payments to maximum of 100 a week it went far beyond many wage scales to keep the fund up labor minister bryce mackasey dragged in more than a million more workers many of whom would never be in a position to collect however it was not enough and today we are faced with a fund that is actually broke the minister claims the public in general will not be con cerned he must be a dreamer if he thinks the public doesnt know who is footing the deficit decent hardworking people are not going to object to looking after the genuinely unemployed although some will surely question a system which permits maximum payments for not working that exceed minimum payments for those who do work intellectual types will tell you about a dream world with work for two or three days a week a great society of leisure is this what we really want the idea of work is not a hangover from puritan times it is fundamentally good for man to work to have challenges and pit his skills against problems the system the government operates breeds a sense of injustice mr mackasey should remember that many people do work they dont care for and resent the holidays that many others take on unemployment insurance which regular workers have paid for 40amin jrgujjt i hate to say it but i told you so by jim thomas im a connoisseur of good hockey the majority of canadians are they recognize the abilities of out standing players they appreciate the skills of well- executed plays unfortunately little of either was beamed out of maple leaf gardens last season and the way things are going the situation is more likely to deteriorate than improve depressed you ask youre right depressed but not sur prised for i predicted defeat in game one for team canada saturday not a massacre mind you but a loss just the same by maybe one or two goals and everybody laughed at least all the armchair spectators i talked to itll be murder said one f the whole russian team couldnt carry espositos skates joked another those guys the russians couldnt shoot their way out of a wet paper bag jeered still another my reply to all this was and i quote the canadian team is in for a big sur prise the russians will skate and pass them dizzy and they did now some of those same fairweather friends are doefully predicting a clean- sweep for the soviets i dont buy thi either id say an even split four games apiece would be about right after all from what i saw saturday the nhlers couldnt possibly play worse and if the russians play better theyll be stickhandling up and down the trolley tracks on carlton street the thing that bothers me most and has for years is the style of hockey dished up by the socalled pros with exception of perhaps the mon treal canadiens its a shootandchase brand of shinny and while it produces such extracurricular attractions as an occasional buttend in the ribs or an elbow in the teeth theres little ex citement for the legitimate fan unless of course dislocated dentures are to your liking personally thats not for me that is why as a kid my favorites of the late 40s were the new york rangers that club comprised the greatest group of razzle- dazzle guys ever in my memory to don blades unfortunately the style while it thrilled even the nonpartisan spectator failed in its ultimate objective to win championships hence its demise now it seems the soviets have taken over where the rangers left off the result saturday at least the finest display of oneteam puckjuggling mastery seen in two decades would bobby orr have helped the canadian cause you bet your boots he would on saturday i saw six bobby orrs on the ice with every shift trouble was they were all wearing the wrong sweaters if a child the following words of advice under the heading reflections for parents and teachers are prominently displayed near the door to the principals office at summitview public school in stouffviue they read if a child lives with criticism he learns to fight if a child lives with pity he learns to feel sorry for himself if a child lives with jealousy he learns to hate if a child lives with encouragement he learns to be confident if a child lives with praise he learns to be appreciative if a child lives with acceptance he learns to love if a child lives with recognition he learns to have a goal if a child lives with fairness he learns justice if a child lives with honesty he learns what truth is if a child lives with friendliness he learns that the world is a nice place in which to live
