Thank you to all local businesses who donated prizes, to those who bought tickets, and congratulations to the lucky winners.

Your County Council has been working on a Fire Ban by-law for some time now. I am partly opposed to this, but by having a permit you will be able to burn something up or down, what ever, and not be fined. The part I do not like is getting a permit to light your garbage barrel fire. You may need a new one every 5 days, or so it seems to me! In the last Advocate there is an article on your County Council and discussing purchasing a vehicle for our by-law officer. We put the money in the budget last year so that is not the problem. What I am wondering is how fancy do we need to be for a unit that will be travelling on gravel roads 90% of the time. A Suburban? I don t think so. An S.U.V.?, I don’t know. How about a van such as a tradesman would use? We need to have the right unit as we keep them a long time and they need to be outfitted with a lot of safety equipment, so the price is only part of the equation. The latest on 542 is, after September 1 or 15th work should start. Top Notch Construction is the dirt contractor on this job. Apparently they have been held up on a job at Hannah, due to weather problems. I hope they can get it all done before the winter sets in! If you want gravel, they were loading at the Ingraham pit, but you should phone the office first. I think Wednesday is the day they load farm trucks. The County has purchased a used machine to use on the dirt abatement program. So that crew should be back in action now. The dirt crew has done 7 miles of new construction and are most likely ahead of schedule. Street Signs for the County have been discussed again. It costs a lot of money to install these signs and then they have to be maintained. I am thinking it might be more practical to put them on the township lines and then you could figure out from there where you want to go.

Marie radio station broadcast that a spring had snapped in Terry's artificial limb, a welder jumped in his car to make a road call. In 90 minutes, the spring was repaired and Terry was on the road again. Wawa, ON. August 18; 3,046 miles, 4,901 km. The Montreal River Hill, just south of Wawa, is 3 km long. Those who knew it were making the analogy of the hill being Goliath and Terry being David. Terry's t-shirt that day read: Montreal River Here I Come, with I've Got You Beat on the back! Terrace Bay, ON. August 27; 3,208 miles, 5,153 km. Terry meets up with 10- -year old Greg Scott of Welland, who had also lost his leg to bone cancer. "Greg rode his bike behind me for about six miles and it has to be the most inspirational moment I have had! At night we had a beautiful reception in Terrace Bay. I spoke about Greg and couldn't hold back the emotion.' Thunder Bay, ON. September I; 3,339 miles, 5,373 km. "People were still lining the road saying to me, "Keep going, don't give up, you can do rt, you can make it, we're all behind you? Well, you don't hear that and have it go in one ear and out the other, for me anyways. There was a camera crew waiting at the three-quarter mile point to film me. I don't think they even realized that they filmed my last mile. people were still saying, 'You can make it all the way, Terry'. I started to think about those comments in that .mile, too. Yeah. I thought, this might be my last one? ct 9_.'ClD am. Hilo urn hj j( o « ^ftajThunder Bay, ON. "That's the thing about cancer. I'm not the only one, it ||fl|tjappens all the time to people. I'm not special. This just intensifies what I did. it gives it more meaning. It'll inspire more people. I just wish people would realize that anything's possible if you try. When I started this Run, I said that if we all gave one dollar, we'd have $22 million for cancer research, and I don't care, man, there's no reason that isn't possible. No reason? cipasiG.

MOSQUITO”S BOTHERING YOU??? Here is a good thing for the summer, for those people who like to sit and enjoy the out of doors, but don’t like those pesky Mosquitoes. Put some water in a white dinner plate and add just a couple of drops of Lemon Fresh Joy dishwashing soap. Put it on your patio. I don’t know what attracts the, the lemon smell, the white colour or what, but mosquitoes flock to it, and drop dead and fall into the water, or on the floor within about 10 ft. If you have problems with mosquitoes getting into your house, set up one of these traps in your kitchen, on the counter. Works just super! Enjoy the rest of this summer mosquito free.

The books are available in town, so pick one up and keep it in a safe place (I usually misplace mine). Check through all the categories and see what you might like to enter, again I usually mark ;he categories, and read carefully to see what is specifically asked for. If you are planning on entering in the baking section again select the product you want to jnter in each category. Find you recipes in you cook book and put in a bookmark with the name of the recipe showing, this saves time searching when the final crunch comes. For jam, jelly and pickle entries wipe the jars and the ring for good presentation. Just remember the fair is only successful as ties number of entries they receive.

The biggest problem is that we seem to have run out of space, and due to a “ technical hitch” (the owner doesn’t know how to ran the new digital camera) we do not have any pictures either. There was a very nice write-up in the Vulcan Advocate along with some good pictures, so we hope you will forgive us. Again many thanks go all who participated, parading, working behind the scenes or even watching it all made for a fun time. Without the volunteers it would never have happened. It always amazes people when such a small place can produce such a fine show. Just think what might happen for our 80th celebrations!!!Lomond Figure Skating and Dance Club Are you or your children interested in Skating or Dance?

After reading several farm papers, it seems there may be problems ahead for us who have not tagged. I can first see all those big cattle buyers letting good calves go to smaller buyers .10c/pound cheaper because of no tags. In some cases a calf will have 3 or 4 owners before it is actually slaughtered for meat. No matter what happens to that animal after you sell it, it will be traced back to you for explanations. In the August 23rd issue of the Western Producer there is a question of who will have access to the information on these cattle. Why would the R.C.M.P. need this information? How about Revenue Canada? It appears you might as well print your personal finances in the local paper, is there no privacy left in this country? How many times do you get asked for your Social Insurance Number these days? I don’t see why so many government agencies need to know what people are doing. Also I see where the Canadian Cattleman’s Association has plans to collect a dollar a head off of all cattle sold in Canada. Most cattle are sold at least three times, sure beats working for a living, being able to “tax” someone else’s efforts. Now a dollar is not a lot on a $1,000.00 animal, but it is the principle. Need money to run your organization? See who has got some and then get the government to help get it, probable tax-free too! Although the tag deal is a done deal, I think cattlemen need to make sure it is used as intended and not as a source of information to people who like to snoop.
