• Like most peciple, I hate .good-byes, Even. though I
• will be visiting your town in the future, 1 have fin-
ished my coop assignment ,with the Sentinel. It has
beenthe most interesting, and often challenging few,
months I have spent. During that time, I have learned
• a. little about.the newspaper business and best of all
had the opportunity to become better acquainted with
the folks of Lucknow and area.
Thank -you to Pat, Phyllis, Tom, and Joan for all
your patience and help. You made my time here both
informative arid fun1 will always be grateful for the
encouragement you gave me when faced with the
unfamiliar (and there was so much).
When I first started, I was what my husband jok-
ingly referred to as Photo Impaired."' I have had cam-
eras actually leap from My hands and commit suicide
in my own drivevvay. If the camera didn't meet with
some terrible accident, the unfortunate subjects were
either unrecognizable or headless, I still have a long
way to go in that particular aspect of journalism, but
fortunately for me, Pat's trusty Nikon is stillintact
,Phyllis, I will never forget the beeping of that cash
register when I pushed the wrong button. I think I
woke up a couple of nights hearing it Thanks for the
times you had to unroll almost the entire daily tape to
find out what on earth I did wrong this time. Sorry. '
On another note, I thought you might be interested
in some of the ()Onions offeredbythe people of
Lucknow and surrounding areas, who kindly agreed
to answer my "Let's 'Talk" questions. •
I found that in general the residents; enjoy playing
tricks at Halloween, don't dare for winter too much,
think we should cut down on the size of school
boards, the .government shouldn't force Doctors to
practice rurally, worry about hospital restructuring,
like to Christrna.s shop at local merchants, try their
best to keep New Year's resolutions, believe. there
should' be bootcamps for young offenders, think
amalgamation is' a good idea, try to avoid getting the
winter blahs by keeping busy, don't really believe

• Dear editor: • ,
I am concerned that the
letter to the editor which
you published last week'
(June 11) is a continuation.
of the divisiveness which

campaign we saw that
Preston Manning was con-
tent to pit region against

against French Canadian;
and now Progressive
Tories against conserva-

what Canadians need

Mr. Fines suggests that
Reform offers recalland
