There was plenty to choose from at the garage sale held by the Londesboro United Church on Saturday to raise money for the church's furnace fund. Bill Kolkman (foreground) doesn't seem to know just where to turn next. The event also featured a bake sale and a silent auction. Londesboro Pancake breakfast, Judge R.G.E. Hunter fined a R.R.l, Belgrave man $200 in Ontario Court, Criminal Division after taking a chance he could straighten out his life. Bradley J. Peel showed up in court with a cheque for $1700 for restitution for damage he had caused by driving into overhead doors at P. and K. Autobody in Bluevale on Nov. 23, 1990. He had pleaded guilty when he appeared before Judge R.G.E. Hunter in Jan­ uary. The court was told that at 1:15 a.m. on Nov. 23 a 1980 Olds Cutlass had driven into the over­ head door of the garage and the driver and a passenger in the car got out and started pounding the door with their fists. Most of the lower panels in the door were bro­ ken. Mr. Peel told Judge Hunter he had been unemployed at the time and had an alcohol problem. Since then, he had said in January, he had gotten a job and was off alcohol. Judge Hunter had said he was going to see how big a change he had made in his life and adjourned the case until May to give him a chance to make restitution. When the restitution was made, the judge ordered only a $200 fine.

Mrs. William Dobson hosted the legislation meeting of the Ethel W.I. at her home on Tuesday evening. Mrs. Archie Jacklin gave her report from the Huron East Dis­ trict Annual Meeting in Bluevalc. The FWIO theme for next year is "trees". Everyone is urged to plant a tree this year. Members were encouraged to write a support letter to M.P.P. Paul Klopp asking him to support the WI "living will" resolution which had been introduced in the govern­ ment and was then shelved. The roll call "are we changing our laws too fast to suit others" received a unanimous response that Canada is changing to reflect others' way of life. A visit to the Callander Nurs­ ing Home in Brussels is scheduled for June 12 at 2 p.m. The GST was the topic of the meeting and a live­ ly discussion was held with the consensus being the GST is not a good tax and should not have been implemented when it was because the rules are constantly being changed. The GST digs deeper into everyone's pocket from all walks of life. Our precious trees are being used to make paper for more paper­ shuffling jobs which costs everyone more, so continues a vicious circle. Mrs. Cecil Raynard read a little ditty for her smile.
