' Little has been done or is being done to control these continual speed limit violations which • Main street peopie in Lucknow see happeningall day long, every day.. The police protection•received in Lucknow comes from the .Kin- cardine Detachment of the Ont- ario Provincial Police. Being 25 miles from Kincardine means that the police protection here • Is not adequate, but it seems to *be what we have to live with. . It seems to us that an officer from the Kincardine detachment could be located in Lucknow for a day a week, not the same day of course, but one day out of seven. Present police protection in the • village seems to be limited to • the usual drive through town on the regular patrol, which really doesn't count for too much. A few hours in town on a Fri- day or Sunday evening would bring in enough fine dollars from week end traffic speeding viola tions to pay the policeman's wages for a month. And if they want to catch those speeding truckers who daily make the main street a• raceway, they're not going to do it in half an hour. They must be.pre- pared to spend a day, periodical• - ly on Lucknow's main thorough - .fare. , Lucknow would soon get the reputation of a "slow down" town, but not unless a concentrated effort is put forth. Forget about the guy who is 5 miles an hour over the speed limit. The iriolator we.are speak- ing of will cruise the town at 50 to 60 miles an hour and it's done. regularly every day. Lucknow is part of Ontario and as such deserves the services .of a provincial police officer. Let't control this speeding in town be- fore a polite officer is called to perform another type of duty, to investigate,a dead child or adult who happened to be in the way of a speeding vehicle. • • MUSICALLY RICH The Lucknow Concert Band, under director Gordon Cayley, presented its annual spring band concert on Saturday even- • ing to a full auditorium at Luck - now Central Public School. The 65 member group, made up.of young people from .the area , presented a fine and varied pro- gram which indicates the many hours of training and practicing that goes into such an evening. For many years Lucknow has been favoured with a local.band and dedicated leaders, the latd P. W. Hoag, Elwin ball and the present bandmaster Gordon Cay - ley. . This community has been mus ically richer because of men like these. • ANDREW -• Tom and Hilda AndreW of Lucknow are pleased to an nounce the birth of their son, Mark Thomas, on Wednesday, • May 23rd, 1973, in Victoria Hos- pital, London. • KEANE - Roy and Marlene (Hunter) Keane are happy to announce the safe arrival of their son, 13rian Eugene, 6 lbs. , 12 ozs., onMay 22nd, 1973 at Stratford General Hospital, a baby brotherfor Ar- lene.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Commends Work Of Concert Band May 28, 1973 The Editor The Lucknow Sentinel, Lucknow , Ont. Dear Sir: • • • • I had the privilege'of attend- ing the 'concert of the Lucknow.. Concert Band last Saturday night and I want to commend them for their presentation. They.have come a long way in the past four years, and their music shows the result of many hours of devotion and practice. Much of the credit for the excellence of this band must to to their leader, Mr. Gordon Cayley. We are indeed fort- unate to have a person of his interest and. ability in our school and our community who is willing to devote the time and energy he does into helping our, young • people to develop their musical talents. Others in the community have also given of their time and energy to make this band a succ- • ess and they; too, can be proud of their accomplishment. I write this because I think all your readers should know about this positive contribution that is being made to this community. Yours Sincerely,• . • R.G.
