WILL I ALWAYS REMEMBER HIM? Remembering the deceased is a way of keep- ing o loved one always alive in your mind. The full-service funeral is the traditional and time - proved woy of making sure your memories are psychologically sound. A hill service with your mutual friends and relatives present gives you a final memory of lasting value. While the immediate memory may be a pain- ful one ofter the death of a loved one, this poem may give you o new view. As long as memory (scalls, those who die may live. Until our mind's eye dims, Immortality we give. (Annon.) It was Cicero who said, "the life of the dead is placed in the memory of the living." And from Maeterlinck's "The Blue Bird" - "how con they be dead when they live in your memory?"

About 90 of the centre's 166 workers were laid off by Mon- day and the staff will be reduced to 69 by Friday. Gregg said the remaining staff wil help close down the_ facility and make home visitations to former patients after the final patients leave.

In their presentation, the Proutys explained that a reduction in the zoning bylaw sideyard requirement was needed to allow vehicular ac- cess to the garage and to preserve an existing wood deck. At their meeting on November 9, the committee also approved 2,500 square foot building to be erected by Canadian Canners Ltd. to house part of the corn pro- cessing line presently located in an existing building. Members also viewed four site plan proposals for Jack Taylor's Stoneyridge Developments Inc. subdivi- sion. A public hearing into the application is scheduled for December 7.

FAIR Hea, nq A.d Se, ,ce 145 Ontario St. Stratford Prevention Week and prompts the following from ; the Exeter Police Department. The idea for National Crime Prevention Week grew out of a desire by the Ministry of the Solicitor General to make crime prevention a national priority and to encourage a more co-ordinated and com- munity based approach to preventing crime. Community crime preven- tion means people sharing the responsibility for making the place they live in more secure. In other words, the police. merchants. citizens and neighbours should all work together to combat crime in their area. One example of this occur- red in Exeter on Monday.. November 28 A local citizen observed a minor theft Ile obtained a description of the • thief. the licence number of his car and immediately reported the incident to the Police. Within a tew hours. the per son responsible was ap- prehended. If this citizen had not paid attention to what was going on and acted as an in- terested citizen, the police would have had great difficul- ty in locating the suspect. In Tact, the chance of recovering the stolen proper- ty and the apprehension of the suspect would have been close to impossible. The police department would like to thank the citizen for his co operation. /T� � I paRncfpacr/On NOW till - Dec. 24 Super Specials 1 Kroehler Chesterfield Suite Reg.
