The readers write Two different views of Remembrance Day Dear Editor. I would like to take this opportu- nity to thank you and the rest of the staff at the TA, particularly Yvonne Reynolds, for the generous support and coverage we received, for our ADAPT program. We are most ap- preciative of the coverage provided by the TA for the high school. Once again, thanks very much. Yours truly, Terry ORourke. 4 ¥ ¥ Dear Sir. Remembrance Day in Hensall will not be forgotten for a long time for us, who care about the real meaning of the day. In my opinion, it was a disgrace, the hymns in the church were not appropriate, then while we were marching back to the cenotaph, our heroes were serenaded with Christ- mas Carols from our marvellous Town Clock. Our Reeve was in the parade and should have been informed by one of our members that out of respect for our war heroes, the above so called clock should have been silent also. A car was parked in front of the cenotaph and one would have ex- pected the on duty O.P.P. officer to have it moved down the street. I lost 'an uncle whose name is en- graved on Hensall's cenotaph, my father was in World War 1 and one brother in World War II and also the TAKE-OUT - Working at the delicatessen table at the annual Exeter Korean War.

Exeter answered in the second per- iod with an unassisted shorthanded goal off the stick of Geoff Hann and very shortly after, Hann pegged his second goal with the assist going to Scott Inson. Parkhill rallied with seconds left Men's and Ladies' styles are a perfect match! Two men's and ladies' sets are shown, priced at parade to the church and cenotaph one day of the year. It seems to me a few more people could show a bit of courtesy as a display of gratitude for living in a free country. Thank you. Respectfully yours, Comrade Marg Vanstone Past President of Auxilary to Branch 468 of The Hensall Royal Canadian Legion ¥ ¥ ¥ Dear Sir The same as last year, I journeyed to the high school for their "Remembrance Day" ceremony in the auditorium. Again, it was a memorable occa- sion, well presented by students to an attentive, well -disciplined student body. Not as impressive as last year, which is a service I shall al- ways remember; it was nonetheless sincere. As we stood with bowed heads, the names of local servicemen who died in the two world wars and Ko- rea were read aloud. I'm sure those who paid the supreme sacrifice for their loved ones did not think as they marched away to war, that their memory would be preserved all those many years later. It was a. touching thought and re- inforced by the sweet trembling of the "Last Post", well played by a young member of the school band. Principal Bruce Shaw, staff and stu- dents are to be congratulated. I think more people should wit- ness this annual event played out by crunched in the second to tie the game on a goal from John Vandenhoevel with assists to Rudy Van Hooydonk and Dave Hendrikx: Parkhill notched a go-ahead goal near the end of the third period from Morley, assisted by Kelly McAdam but Exeter answered that goal with an unassisted goal off the stick of Willy Partridge. With 43 seconds remaining in the game, Parkhill took the lead on a powerplay goal from Hendrikx, as- sisted by Van Hooydonk and Exeter was unable to respond as time ran out. Crunchers showed determination in a well played and hard fought game. Next game is Wednesday, when the Crunchers travel to Muncey. Canada's young. I'm glad they still remember! "Gibby" (J.M. Gibson) ¥ ¥ ¥ Dear Editor. The Exeter Pathfinders are con- cerned. We went on a mini tour up Main Street, in a wheelchair to see what it's like. We found that people in wheelchairs couldn't get in most stores or up and down curbs without help. For example they couldn't get in the library, town hall (to see the Mayor or pay taxes) or the P.U.C. (to pay their water bill). Some of the newer stores have ramps and the doors open the right way.
