With a rev people screaming, ,
to close the trailer park on West
Street and turn it back to a park
again, I just hope they make use
of it now. As in any park there
are always people who °abuse
their privileges and spoil it for
others -or, as in ' this
ease -everyone.
People who visited our nice
town for their two or three week
vacation and those who found it
wonderful ,for just a few days
stopover, will. _certainly miss
being able to use this park.
• I do know that the folks who
• came especially for Art Mart
• week will be disappointed' as
they praised this town to the
sky -mainly for the fact that we
had such a beautiful spot right in
town where they could park
• their nice little trailer for a week
*(and more) 'and really enjoy our
town. 'Oh, I• know, we
shouldn't have a "Trailer -ark"
in town. It just isn't done! But
since • we had one in such a
beautiful spot- where it was out
of sight -- more or less and a
place -that the townspeople had
grown away from - oh it had
been well used many, many
years ago but in the last twenty
years things have changed in
G9derich. '4 Those who had
enjoyed walldng to' the park,
now have cars and visited parks
in spots all over the Dominion -
or had grown away from the
'park' era cOmpletely.
Using a park is done by the
. trery young and very- old -
mostly. The in-betweeners might
-but there -are so many -other
places to go they just grew away
from it. The people who really
enjoyed that park also had a
..canoe,_or_ small call boat, _they
didn't have a heavy motor -boat
• •requiring .a trailer of its own or a
large motor -boat, which ,took
you away from parks entirely.
Also the folks who really used
that park - are past the parking
(sparking) age and couldn't care
less what happened 'to it. Our
younger generation ° - (like
' like to drive' to the spots'
along 'the lake - just to look at
the beauty of it, but seldom ever
• get out of, the car. /
The much younger generation
have also grown away from
playing in the park. They want
cement ' for mbst of. their
activities so they are not using
the 'park either. Now; when you •
1E. you might, but in
this day and age the romances
don't bloom in the park - they
have to have booming, crashing
noises to help their romancing
along.

still the old sentimentalists who
have their yearly re -union or

Proper use of lifejac e
A lifejacket is the most

your life,
The Ontario Safety League
points out that the efficiency of
any lifejacket depends on its
condition:" A worn-out,
water-logged lifejacket could act
More like an anchor , than a

advises checking all lifejackets at -
the beginning of the season to be
sure their hyoyancy is still good.
and the jacket is performing its,
function properly. , •
Here is a gdbd method to test
either adult or children's.
lifejackets:
Put the life)ackqt on making
sure that the side marked 'front'
is over the chest and that all
fasteners and, tapes are secured
firmly. Then lie face down in the
water, preferably off a beach
where you are not beyond your
depth, and let the body go limp
in a `deadnianfloat. If the
jacket is_ properly designed and
still retains its, buoyancy, the
wearer should be automatically
