The Sentinel is heavily depend- ent of mail in its day ,to day news operations and with only a trickle of local mail arriving since Tues- day of last week, this eek's pap- er will be missing some o the 'normal weekly columns. An additional problem is, the fact that it is impossible to get mail delivery of the paper to sub- scribers outside the immediate trading area. • ••• With local post offices running in the normal fashion up until writing time , it is at least expect- ed that the distribution of local papers will be completed without too much disruption of service. If the post office cannot guar- antee delivery. The Sentinel will drive papers, to poSt offices in the trading area. The fact that a few pOstal work- ers in Montreal break an agree- ment with the Canada Post Office -and go on an illegal strike is bad enough. but to see union members across Canada go out in support of the rebels puts them all in the same mailbag. They are break- ing a previously agreed upon con- tract which puts a question mark on the value of signing any:union contract with them in the future. A' few hundred postal employees, with thoughts only for themselves, should not be.allowed to bring the economy of the country to a stand- still with' their irresponsible ac- tions. 111111111111111111111111 • ADDED CONVENIENCE • Traffic , this past week, start- ed using the new Canning Street bridgeln Lucknow near Anderson Flax Products Ltd. , known to most people as the Flax Mill bridge. About 1 1/2 years ago the old bridge collapsed under the weight -of a 'truck load of grain and since that time both Pedestrian and motor traffic 'in that area found it necessary to adapt themselves to new routes. • The new bridge , built by Owen King Conitruction of Walkerton, is situated. further to the west and . the course of the river has been changed. The old Carding Mill, a land- mark in that area , was removed and the area presents a brand new improved appearance. The, bridge will be a big asset to the village and will once again add convenience to the everyday life of residents and employees in that area of town.
