If there were one impression an
observer took away from the an-
nual convention of the Canadian
Community Newspapers Associa-
tion, held last month in Halifax,
it was a general concern over the
growth and influence of federal
and provincial governments and
The marriage of Lavina Kimberly Schwartzentruber and Robert
George Snell took place on July 24, 1976 at 3 p.m. in the Zurich
Mennonite Church. Rev. Clayton Kuepfer and Rev. Hubert
Schwartzentruber, uncle of the bride, were officiating. The
bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Orlen Schwartzentruber
of Zurich and the groom is the son of Mr. and Mrs. George
Snell of Centralia. Music was provided by Mrs. Pearl Ann
Martin and Ruth Ann Steckle accompanied by Mrs. Grace
Martin. Matron of honor was Brenda Snell of Exeter. Bridal
dle
attendants were Lorrie Lee Lachine, of Charing Cross,
Schwartzentruber of Zurich, and Karen Snell of Centralia.
Flower girl was Cathy Merner of Zurich and ringbearer was
Brent Jesney of Huron Park. Rick Snell of Centralia was best
man and ushers were Bill Cudmore of London, Ray Snell of
Centralia and John Schwartzentruber of Zurich. The bridal
couple will be residing in Centralia following their week long
honeymoon.
their attendant bureaucracies.
At the municipal level, there is
personal contact and a working
resemblance to democracy. But
three levels? "Take Consumer
and Corporate Affairs," said one
editor. "There's much that is
good in the Combines Investiga-
tion Act, but it puts a lot of power
in the hands of officials.
"The federal legislation is
comprehensive and probably 80
per cent of it is useful. But
then provinces had to climb on
the consumerism bandwagon and
draft legislation of their own.
The objectives are the same but
the fine print is different and ad-
vertisers tell me that keeping up
with the differences is almost im-
possbile. Once again, too many
cooks are spoiling the broth."
"Take press releases," said,
another. "They're handed out
undigested by media relations
bureaucrats. Most of them are
useless. The guiding principle
is volume, to justify the jobs of
the senders. Not long ago one
from the Post Office informed
us, in three colors, that there
had been no change in postal
regulations that month."
A publisher described how
local officials of a federal depart-
ment, working with provincial
bureaucrats, contrive to impover-
ish communities which don't fit
into the development plant. Com-
munity A is striving for self-
sufficiency, but is outside the
development area. Community B
is in the area and is already
being subsidized. B's subsidies
will continue, , or be increased;
any application from A will be
postponed indefinitely.
The range of topics covered by
editors and publishers visiting the
Canadian Federation of Indepen-
dent Business' booth during the
convention, left no doubt of the
vital role played by independent
community newspapers. Not for
them the dailies' diet of gloom
and destruction; theirs is the
appetizing news of neighbors and
familiar events. They are the
heart and soul of the communities
they serve, the cement that binds
them together.
One community was dying on
its feet, the newspaper with it.
A new publisher, forsaking retire-
ment, is putting new, life into the
paper. Around that cre, enthus-
iasm is building throughout the
community. "We're getting you-
ng people who want to work. Not
Institute
donates
The members of the commit-
tee, on World Affairs, were in
charge of the Zurich Women's
Institute meeting August 30 held
in the Hay Township Hall. Mrs.
Eilleen Consitt convened and
Mrs. Tom Meyers and Mrs.
Herb Neeb assisted.
Connie Neeb, Peggy and Jody
Hay favoured the group with
three songs. Christine Haberer
rendered two piano selections.
The program was enjoyed by all.
Each member of the committee
in charge presented interesting
short discussion on various types
of World Affairs—topics such as
Habitat, Ecology and Methods of
Combating Pollution, Olympics,
strife in foreign countries, Mars,
and many more happenings.
Mrs. Lorne Klopp and Mrs.
Ward Neeb will be the delegates
to the Fall Rally, which will be
held in Dashwood October 4.
Money will be sent to "Com-
passion of Canada" to provide a
child with an outfit of warm
clothing.
The amount of $200 will be
donated to the Zurich Arena.
The bulk of this was the profit
from the Institutes Bean Festival
Booth.

well over 80 years of age, cele-

and we intend to win." and a ``Happy Birthday" song.
