In your report, "Keep Them In- formed", you accused Council of holding a special closed meeting. I have been a Councillor for nearly three years, there has never been a closed meeting. Eery meeting held by Council is an open meeting, and the public is always welcomed. In fact it would be a pleasure to have more residents attend Council Meetings, and show an interest in what is being done for their Village and not wait un- til something happens - which is a disappointment to a few concerned residents. It was extremely unfortunate Mr. Allen of London was unable to attend the council meeting as scheduled ow- ing to the bad storm.

The press would have been welcomed to this meeting. I am concerned that residents liv- ing in the immediate area of the pro- posed new restaurant, feel very unhappy but hopefully they will change their mind and approve of a building which witl,•l feel, be an at- traction to the corner, also to the core area. I wonder how many residents can remember when Council gave per- mission for the Freeze King to be established on the corner of Brock and King Street. This also is a residential area, but no one complained. I certainly agree there should have been a Zoning By -Law in this Village years ago to protect residential property. This, I can assure you, Council is now in process of establishing such a By -Law. i • rv, r.. (;oderich, Hensall and Exeter, at Lit- tle People in Exeter, Dr. Lee Den- tistry in Zurich and Clinton, Half Pints in Grand Bend, and at Pint Sizes and Sam the Record Man in London. Sharon, Lois and Bram have put out six albums, and are now known and loved all over North America. Their first album was the fastest -selling children's album ever produced in Canada, and they've won two Juno awards for Best Children's Album of the Year. The trio appear frequently on television, and have made a 13 -part series, "The Elephant Show", for the CB('. They published a book in 1980 with McGraw-Hill Ryerson called "Elephant Jam", an illustrated treasury of their favorite songs, chants, rhymes and singing games. There's also a film, "Sharon, Lois and Bram at Young People's Theatre," that's been shown on First Choice, the CBC and TVO. 'l'hose attending can expect a live- ly concert with a lot of audience par- ticipation. They sing folksongs, schoolyard-chants, old camp songs. singing games from Africa and the Caribbean, pop tunes from Tin Pan Alley, clapping songs, nonsense rhymes and more. Whatever they sing, Sharon, Lois and Bram have a great love and respect for childhood; they don't talk down to children. Their music has enough substance and surprises to wear well, even when the record is be- ing given its umpteenth go -round, and live in concert they should be a real- ly special treat.
