Warm summer days and nights causes. -many Lucknow residents to look with envy at surrounding towns, villages : and hamlets which have the facilities ;of.-a..community •-park -at their"disposal. Lucknow has more than one location known as :a, park, but it takes more than a field and a bit of grass to make a park suitable for the use of the community, from infants to senior citizens; Lucknow really has ' nothing that even resembles the type of park that; we see in our travels around this area. Attempts •were made '1 an : ' • a : entennial year to establish such a park here. The idea was "shotdown and today, three years later, wefind ourselves with • the • saine:':nadequate facilities as `we had then.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Explains Position.. In Milk, Dispute. R. •R-. 3," Lucknow July 9 , 197,P. -:Dear .Don , The article in the July :8 Sentitr el., written by Bill Batten, Exeter, clearly shows the wide gap' of understanding that exists 'between the rural and urban dweller. Mr. Batten , . w ith ' no comprehension of ,the farmer's problem ; has set out tomake a mockery of ihe., rural people:for: trying:.tp get a decent price for their products. - This milk situation -has nothing to do with• the normal import and export of goods that is car- ried on between countries. What' the farmers (under.; leadership of the N,F.U.) are kicking about • and what Ivlr. Batten should have :looked .into be ore wrixirig.t at-�--- ridictilous article,. is:that-We- .are told we are producing a surplus of milk in our country (in any other business it's called inven,. tory in farmingitssurplus) awareness that a person is not alone but is tied'. by blood lines to thousands of ancestors of whom he is the current living monification This new Society was, formed last year to assist in research, and this is under the direction of Rev.
