community newspaper...
While the high and the mighty strut and stamp across th6
world's stage, six women go out to visit the elderly.
A small boy scores the winning goal in a hockey game. An
amateur theatre group produces a smash hit. A town council
passes an important new law.
The real lives of real people. People who don't start wars, who
don't build empires, who don't go into the history books.
But whose stories are exciting, interesting, vital and important.
Stories that should be told.
And I tell these stories every week. Because I am a
community newspaper.
I am a community newspaper. My arena is not Parliament,
the White House, the U.N.—it is the neighbourhood.
The community. But what 1 have to say about it, touches
my readers; lives every bit as much as that larger drama.
Maybe even more.
I am a community newspaper. I am welcomed into hundreds
of homes every week. Not as an intruder, shrieking
outthe harshness, violence and complexity of the world. But
as a friend. A mirror of my readers' lives. Their joys, sorrows,
accomplishments.

de
pendent.
I know when to smile, when to grumble, how to chide, how
to help.
I am a community newspaper.—in a great community. And
I'm proud of it.

Bill Seers wishes there
were' more small
businesses in Auburn.
"Business creates
more business," he says.
Seers " Sunoco and
Schneiders are the only
ones with gas pumps in
Auburn, and Bill says
their main competition iS'
other towns.
Auburn could use
another mechanic, Bill
says. When Bill and
Maxeen Seers built the
station in 1958, there were
three other gas stations -
I Fina, Tom Johnston and
Andy Plunkett.
Maxine opened her
snack bar in 1960. The
stop is a favourite of
truckers, especially in
the winter, when the salt
mines are busy.
In addition to pumping
gas, Bill is a licensed
mechanic and runs an
auto body shop. He and
Maxine run everything
themselves and employ
part-time help.
They stay open seven
®days a week in the
summer and in the winter
they close on Sundays.
