COMMUNITY INFORAAATION!
Last week's..Sentinel carried' a' letter
�to the editor concerning
the fact that `nor a than one community activity' is. sometimes planned
...� .
for the same night' because of the fact that committees in charge were.
not ':aware, of each other's intentions.,
•'` The letter ,suggested:.a central point in Lucknow whereplans
for- tpeoming-events_cs ges ion was for a 'bulletin..
board in:.a central point .which could be referred' to, to indicate' plans
for futur e events. The suggestion was' also made of a committee or
individual Who would co-ordinate dates, and., that organizations could
check with this source before planning their event:
We: are a' bit skeptical about the success of a bulletin; board
listing upcoming events •;The community we are ,concerned wi'
large: one stretching. from 'Blackhorse; to Dungannon and -,from- White-
church to Ripley and' Kingsbridge.
A• bt etin-boar-d -in Lucknow;,j, not too convenient -fora group_at�

problems •surrounding_ 'bulletinboard� _keeping itnup to date, esponsi Dear Sir.

• Dear Done'
We have been asked .from time'
to time• what does. the National.
Farmers' .Union stand for? what
is.. it. doing? •
The sole purpose of the N. F.U.
is to put dollars in the farmers'
pockets:.'
It• is. not a social club -• we do
not put •on.:concerts or'sports
events which; is 'the: function of • `
the recreation committee in our .
:area . When we:put on a .dance:,.._.
have'' a bake .sale or hold a. draw

We 'feel : there would be more logic in ` the ;appointment of one
individual who would :co-ordinate information.on..upcoming events and
relay them by telephone to those who are interested. However, .'•this'
would also present some problems 'in 'educating the people ..to make
.' use of this service:' :Most organizations would be ..unconcerned about
n
such an arrangement until the time would . come for `them :to, plan an'.
event. Then there . would be the' possibility that ; theywould never
Po Y
'think of advising the ,central point, never having .been in the habit of
doing so before,
Nevertheless, we feel that the' second : idea . presents more pos- ,
sibilities than the. bulletin.board::,It would' be wortha try if someone
would be willing to give .of.,their 'time ` in this project:
be accused of barn based
i .and we admit o Cha b'
we feel that a good,• system of advising area r
esidents of
upcoming.
eventsin the community hasbeen in effect for close to loo.years For
a small charge, the "Coming Events" :section of the Lucknow Sentinel
will advise everyone in the community about events ,which are. planned
tr by area ;organizations.One weeks would cost. $1 or if it - is
felt it would take several weeks to make, the•point, 75c a week will, do
• the trickafter the first insertion, 2500 households :will be • aware of
your plans andthat's a bargain in anyone's ;views. A couple'of bucks
spent now is 'a: better in.vesttnent than the . costs involy in a ha en O

advertisement, concerning a .by
law, to be passed by .the •village
.council to. permit' Sunday sports
after 1;30 in the •a:fternoo.n:
The need for the:advertisement.
has puzzled me, somewhat inns-
rnuch, as there is no law in our
province that prohibits sports 'on
Sunday; There is a law.,` as 'l

sports.., 'a vote was'lleld•,.l.n our.
community. The ballot's were
'made out with the.
:question:
You in favour of Sunday sports?''. •
When it was; pointed: out that:there
was_no:1a.w_agai nst_Sundayiports'_
and' such a question was redundant
the ballots were destroyed and '
new ones we're printed with the
question "Are you in. savour of
'commercial -sports ori'•Sunday?":'
There is quite a di:fference.bet-'
ween the two questions'.
A vote_' by the people is no •
longerrettu-ired,; i:t
be done with a bylaw but l main-
tain'that noiice of such should
clearly state that the' matter in
question is Commercial sport ,
that is if it is the intention to
Targe dn�is ion. Or inrwise , • .
there is no authority 'to make such
a cha,rge... .
As pointed out above , there is
quite, a .;difference between
":ports"'and ``'commercial
sports'
If commercial sports Mas not the
intention, then it would seem the
advertisement' was unnecessary.
