ing using the theme. A Celebra-
tion of Joy. Alice Gardiner read
Psalm 98 and in her meditation
made reference to the founders of
both groups in 1903 and 1913, and

an Ritchie W.M.S. Agnes Lamond

solo, Sweet Afton and during the

violin. The offering was received
by Doris Miller, Roberta Temple-
man, Mary Elliott and I1azel 1lar-

Injured in
fall from
balcony
EXETER - Dave Newton
was badly shaken up in a fall
from the balcony off the bed-
room area of his home at 261.
Churchill Drive on Friday.
Finding himself locked out,
he was auempting to enter his
home in a rather unorthodox
manner by climbing up to the
upper level. A board broke,
throwing him backward. For-
tunately, he landed on grass'
rather than cement. .
Newton was examined at
South Huron Hospital, and re-
leased that evening. He is se-
verely bruised, but sustained
no permanent injuries.
Newton's humour was un-
harmed. When asked if next
time he was locked out he
would wait for a key, he
laughed and said "I'd probably
be stupid enough to climb up
again, but I would make sure
the board would hold?

Letters to the Editor
Dear Ross:
An interesting footnote to Mr.
Mulroncy's visit to our area yester-
day was what happened at the end of
my lane last night.
Some weeks ago I put up a sign
which says on one side "CANADA
- Don't trade it away" and on the
other "Let Canadians Decide". It ex-
presses my concerns about the Mul-
roney Trade Deal and my belief that
Canadians should have a chance to
vote on the issue.
The sign stood peacefully at the
end of my lane until last night
when some enterprising person,
perhaps emboldened by Mr. Mulro-
neys visit, got up the courage to
pull it up, tear it to bits and smash
the stake against our mail box.
The symbolism of this act of
anonymous violence was too great
to let pass. Mr. Crosbie is forever
talking about the "irrationality" of
those who disagree with the Mul-
roney Trade Deal. Unfortunately it
appears that those who support it
will resort to violent intimidation.
They arc prepared to tear up and
trample the request that ordinary
Canadians have a vote on a deal that
will profoundly affect our country.
In the process they are prepared to
damage Canadian institutions, in
this case symbolized by my
smashed mailbox.
I am not amused or intimidated.
Canada is a country worth fighting
for. Politicians who lie about their
true intentions before elections, like
cowards who anonymously smash
signs and mailboxes, can not be re-
spected. Neither should they be
feared.
I hope what happened at the end
of my lane is not an example of
how supporters of the Mulroney
Trade Deal intend to behave during
the election. If they do stoop to in-
timidation thcy will be surprised to
find that ordinary Canadians arc
looking for honesty and integrity,
not violence.
Yours sincerely,
Tony McQuail

I would like to thank the Exeter•

sponsible for The new addition of

now is your opportunity to show
your talent. I know it is out there!

Dear Sir:
The Federal Government is going
to give some S28,000,000 to B.C.
grape growers, due to the FREE
TRADE Deal; as an adjustment for
the losses to be incurred by these
B.C. grape growers.
(In addition Ontario grape growers
are asking for S200,000 in subsid-
ies.)
I would like to ask our M.P. Mr.
Murray Cudiff, why a strong indus-
try up -to -now has to be subsidized?
Yours truly,
Ozren Zivkovic
