I would like to expand on what was printed and also thank you for eying to inform the readership of The Clltzett. Surely some will take it .enouslv. The many benefits of apples in our diet seems to me to be one of the world's best kept secrets. Our ancestors knew more about good nutrition than most people know today. Sixty years ago over half of Canadians lived on farms and produced most of their food no their farms. Most of those farms had an orchard. They raised and butchered hogs, cattle and poultry. They grew potatoes. beans and all kinds of vegetables that were chock full of starches, tats and sugar, the things they now tell us aren't good for us and are causing obesity, high blood pressure and all the rest, including cancer and diabetes. They didn't worry about what they ate, they ate what they had which Staying afloat To raise money for new pool blankets, the lifeguards at the Brussels pool, with help from the bronze medallion and bronze cross students, embarked on a tread-a-thon. On Tuesday from noon until midnight, the swimmers did half-hour shifts treading water. A number of sponsors have already donated generously to the $2,700 cause. Recreation employee Abi Corbett has promised that once $1,500 is reached she will have her head shaved, a definite possibility as the donations will be counted until the end of summer.

Bluebox Adjustment Many items are made of LDPE plastic film, but very few are actually labeled. When the Bluewater Recycling Association began collecting film in 1989, it was limited to grocery bags. Over the years, it was expanded to include other products such as bread bags, milk outer bags, dry cleaning bags, etc. These products are all "technically" recyclable, however, they are often contaminated with leftover products (bread, milk, paper tags, etc) or mixed with other non-recyclable film like the cereal bags,food wraps, chip bags, etc. The excessive contamination has forced us to refocus. As a result, the Association will only accept plastic grocery bags as they are the only common item in the household that we know is made of LDPE and is consistently delivered in a clean state. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. Most materials left in your blue box are not acceptable.
