opinion by members of the
public, contain news of
general interest concerning
cent happenings and
g events of a political,
social, religious, commer
tial, financial or legalnature

miscellaneous material in-
cluding legal notices and an-
nouncements, all in addition
to advertisements.

areas, the association places
emphasis on its continuing
education programs, often in

continues to advise regional
and national advertisers :of
the various sectors address-
ed by the community

them m reaching this au-
dience.

association; expresses a con-
4inuing belief that the role of
the community newspaper is
to provide an accurate
reflection of the community
in which they serve, and
strives to, reinforce the
democratic .. process by
presenting a well balanced
view of the social and
political scene that . is of -in-
terest to the . residents of
their community.

Share tree _planting.
*from pane ' 1
grow to less than, 20 feet and wouldcost
about $40 each to purchase and plant
Mrs. Whitby said she would liketo see
some larger trees planted where they would
not interfere with power lines. She suggest-
ed the society place an advertisement in the
Sentinel requesting any residents' who wish
trees planted along their property to notify
the • society. She commented that some
residents of the village may not want trees
planted near their property because they
would not want to clean up the leaves.
Mrs., Cunningham suggested a member of
council accompany members of the horticul-
tural society on a spot check around the town
to determine_where trees could be planted.
Councillor Murray suggested as many as 20
trees could be planted along Haveclock
Street alone to replace trees which have
been;reroved.
Councillor Herb Clark was appointed to
e. Ik
•
accompany the society members on their "
check of ` °the village td determine' tree
planting requirements.
Mrs. Cunningham said it has been sug-
gested to the society they consider planting
trees along the main street sidewalk to
create a boulevard effect, but she agreed
" with council that the street wasn't . wide
enough ° to permit this. She said hanging
baskets would be a better idea to beautify
the main street especially for • the anniver-
sary
in 1983.
Councillor Murray suggested. the council
share the cost of the program with the
society. He said council would be willing to
match the dollars spent by the society: He
said council and the horticultural society had
worked together before to share the cost of
Chsitmasiights for the main street and there
would be no problem in sharing the cost of
this program.
