Mrs. Letherland was born in Ipswitch, England 80 years ago and was a member of Trinity Anglican Church in Blyth. She was predeceased by her hus­ band Alvin E.

Wood A $47,000 investment has been made to extend education opportunities to the local workforce, and skills training to current high school students. The Education-Work Connections Project will see the establishment of a training program at Western Foundry in Wingham. The initiative will establish a link between the high school and the foundry, and using funds provided by the Ministry of Education will enable current foundry employees to pursue a high school diploma, upgrade their academic skills or participate in specialized skills training. In addition, current Madill students will be able to pursue skills training in the industrial environmental as part of their high school education. MPP Paul Klopp said traditional school settings may not work for everyone, and in an effort to combat dropping out, the government has looked to this program as a way of offering alternatives to the typical classroom. Western Foundry's Wayne Phibbs said the program fits nicely into their corporate philosophy of teamwork: "This opens doors to new opportunities for people to upgrade their education." The program will be housed in the current on-site training facility at the foundry, although Phibbs said they are adding a new facility later this year. The program will also create one new leaching position. Principal Rob Parr said they hope to have things up and running within a month. The project is a community partnership consisting of the provincial government, the foundry, the high school and Community Futures (which will monitor and report on the pilot project in 1995). 7 easy ways to get your children to wear bike helmets Now that biking season is here, you might consider these easy tips to get your children to wear bike helmets. 1.
