activities.

It's often said that a picture is worth a thousand
words. However in this case, some explanation may
be needed. Students and teachers at the Vanastra
Public School are taking part in a daily exercise

Dear Editor
We're not poor people
Dear Editor:
As a faithful reader of
The London Free Press,
I've always enjoyed their
articles on local news.
But on Saturday, Sept. 1,
1979, I was appalled: at'
• headlines that read
Souring of Vanastra.
• We are a young com-
munity trying to raise our
standards equal to those
in surrounding areas. We
are under . constant
criticism from other
areas because of where
we choose to live, and
then to my dismay, the
Free Press who I'm sure
had a few to say the least,
subscribers in Vanastra,
jumps on us also.
The pictures "taken
were in poor taste, the
rubble pile apparently
was moved long before
the article was ever done.
There could have been
some pictures taken of
completely renovated
• homes, or of the park or
indoor swimming pool.
• If Helen Connell would
t have spoken " to the
principal of Vanastra
•Public School • he could
'have told how well the
children behave here. We
have no vandalism in our
school that I am aware of.
Please check surroun-
ding area schools! •
You make us sound like
poor people. I have a
great deal of respect for
people here. There are
, many trying to pull

everything together.
We • have Cubs,
Brownies, Guides,
baseball teams, tennis
courts, .curling club,
skating rink, swimming
pool,. and a recreation
centre that is always
arranging dances. This
year we had our first fair
which turned into a huge
success.
I can • enjoy
snowmobiling in winter
or bike riding in summer.
I'd be the last to complain
about .the taxes here with
all we have.
With the wages in this
area and the $20,000
house, I can enjoy all the
luxuries in life I want and
pay cash. It's a nice
feeling for me.
If I wanted to live in a
$60,000 house I'd move to
Goderich, $100,000 would
move me to Toronto. I
think I'll stay here a
while and do all I can to
help this community.
After all, I'd hate to be
poor in a rich area
• anyway. At least I know
one day -I'll see a paper
saying "Paid in Full".
Maybe this area will
never be anything but I'd
bet no one here is taking
the shirt off their back to
pay for house payments
or taxes. You've upset a
lot of people and •we
deserve another chance.
Come back in a few
more years and try
again. I don't imagine
house sales will jump too
high after your story.
Please apologize to ,the
"800 Strangers of
Vanastra".

correspondents felt this

Lions plan year

District Lions Club have
