An area abound with many. terrific, happy, hardworking and community orientated people. Much more than "a nice place to visit" 1 truly regret having to leave Lucknow and area. Over the past five years, I have met many fantastic, unique and entertain- ing individuals. After having witnessed most of and being involved in the Jamboree '83, one can see how Lucknow has survived as a village, and will continue to do so. Like a finely tuned machine, the people in this area all contribute their time, ex- perience 'and know-how to maintain a high level of Community togetherness. This, of course, is a characteristic of most villages, but Lucknow goes above and beyond. ' r leave this area with many fond Coffers dwindling • To the Editor: Politicians being entitled to full indexed pension after 15 years oftalks, I wonder if it is a heavy burden for their conscience to carry when obliged to listen to questions from citizens approaching pension time after 50 to 55 years of work at menial tasks. The obvious criticisim of such a disparity in rewards Steins from the fact that half of the Canadian work force is composed of illiterates and immigrants, both groups • tolerated here, provided they don't ask • questions about entitlement to benefits and indexed pension when qualifying. On average, ten million Canadians forward $6 weekly to Canada Pension. Contribiltions of an employee on a yearly basis was $300.60 in 1983./It is staggering to think of the interest amassed. in Canada Pension coffers since its implementation in 1966. Yet, some politicians, concerned about their position, advantages and perk, keep on talking about the •dwindling of Canada Pension colossaINfortune amassed bythe productivity of others. Rural folks tend toward conservative views and attitudes when city folks talk about reforms, better pension and better control of the staggering amount of money reaching Canada Pension coffers weekly. With education pushed up to grade thir- teen, let us hope that even mediocre minds will be able to comprehend a basic.fact: If Upcoming reunion announced TO - THE EDITOR memories, friends (I think) and a better depth of life as a whole. I only hope that Lucknow will continue to thrive and the farm community prosper once again. I would like to thank all of my friends, customers and community co-workers, mainly the Kinsmen Club, for their support, friendship and -enterta.iiment during my stay in Lucknow. I hall return in the future, you can be sure of that. • P.S. By the way, did you hear what hap- pened to Billy -Bob last night? Well, .... Sincerely Tavistock Tim ? Reader says no Canada Pension funds are dwindling, there is .a leak somewhere. • With the greatest care for keeping untmichable. manipulators and bank own- ers in the wing, some politicians explain • that it is ft patriotic gesture for working people to lend through Canada Pension, billons Of dollars on a 50 ' year loan . to • corporations- and foreign investors: Fifty, years! 0. My! Future conservative accountants yet to be born are already hard at work in some bollocks selectioning the ideal spermatozoan that will write off the i bambotalement. Coining back to basics, why is it so easy for profiteers to obtain what they want when future , pensioners are already cheated at the very start of their pension entitlement? For instance: A person born .. on a fourth of December must wait till the end of January for his, or her. first cheque. What is that person supposed to do? Go and live on the premise of Canada Pension? Charge his or her grub and lOdg- .ing to the local MPP? Run after 'former • politicians asking where characters of their • ilkfunnelled billions of dollars to corporat- ed .establishments paying no tax? GREY POWER,ARISE! The whole country needs a good sweep away.. • Yours truly, A. Joe Legrarid, • laieknow... • To the Editor: A reunion of descendants of Alan McLean, Christine Ross, Flora McDougall and John A. Morrison, turn of the century residents of • the Amberley, Ripley, Lucknow area will be held in Kincardine on July 20 and 21, 1985. Many descendants who now live in the United States are planning to attend this • reunion and renew old acquaintances. Reunion headquarters will be at Lakeview • Motel; Kincardine.

Reader disputes selection process To the Editor: / This year the Canadian Legion Branches have been commemorating the • 40th anniversary of World War U Now is the time to honour some of the Legion members who are, veterans of that war. In the Legion Magazine, it suggested to give the Legion Diamond Jubilee. 60th anniversarly medals to honour those' who have served your branch so well „ Of those 16 medals that went to the Legion (Mens) Branch, only eight went to veterans - surely, even the committee forgot to honour some of the veterans who did serve :Lucknow Legion, Branch 309, so well and helped to build it up so successfully, to the branch and buildingS, it has today. After reading thenomes of the recipients in last week's Sentinel, I was not surprised, but amused, as it seems to me, there was a bit of patronage, in the selection - it reminded me of the T.V. show, "All in the Family". Jim McNaughton, . A Veteran; Lucknow. Editor's note—. the author of the above letter is disputing the manner in which the medal winners are.selected. In the July 3 issue of the Sentinel, the legion outlined their selection process. The selection is "based on outstanding contribution to the work of the local legion in all areas ,of . involvement. Leonard Clark, president•lof the legion branch; says the selection process is handed down from the Donlinion and Zone Command, levels of the legion. Clark says the system of selection is "rigid", basedion the number of functions and meetings attended. Ile says it's based on the members work within the last two years which is why a. number of older veterans didn't quaBfy. 4
