Phoby McKinley overnment influence increasin 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. Three of our members who are well over 80 years of age, cele- many, but enough . We're fight- brated birthdays recently, were ing the free lunch philosophy, each remembered with a gift and we intend to win." and a ``Happy Birthday" song. womentowasnammaam Kawasaki Sales & Service Complete Line of Parts r', Accessories Factory Trained Licensed Mechanic LL SPORTS & RECREATION LIMITED Varna Ontario NOM 2R0 Dial 519-262-5809' SEMI BONELESS BLADE OR Cross Rib Roosts SHORT RIB OR Shoulder Ro. sts FRESH Ham Steaks SCHNEIDERS THURINGER LB. 9.15 CENTER CUTS Summer Sausage SLICED SCHNEIDERS BLUE RIBBON Bologna FRONTS LB.71r SLICED LB. 9.03 LB. $1.19 LB. $1.29 1.29 LB. $1.69 LB. $ 1.79 LB, 99G LB, $1.09 A-1 Heifer SIDES I-piNDS LB. 89r LB. $1.11 PRICE INCLUDES FULLY PROCESSED BEEF PATTIES FROZEN CUSTOM SERVICES FRIDAY'S BEEF & PORK Pick-up Services Available PHONE 236-4312 or 236-4153 YUNGBLUT'S Meat Market ZURICH PHONE 2364312
