T -A staff
HENSALL - Kelly and Roland
Cluett have ventured into the un-
known as they settle into the roles
of hotel owners in one of Hensall's
newest establishments.
"We are sort of living an adven-
ture," Kelly said of the newly reno-
vated business that opened April
19.
The Cluetts are the proud owners
of hotel that includes a 67 -seat eat -
cry as -well as a bar -which• -has
quickly established a cast of regu-
lars.
The bar features a lounge area
with a pool table, big -screen televi-
sion, arcade games, dart board as
well as a dance floor and stage for
live entertainment.
Although the couple have never
owned a bar before, never mind a
hotel, Kelly had managed a bar for
a Number of years and feels she

"We try to have a variety of enter-

They also have specialty nights
such a Ladies night which features

"It gives the men and women a
chance to Dome out; have a bit of

The past month has meant long

away from the operation.
The hotel also has four apart-
ments that are already rented as
well as two overnight units. The
dining room or eatery is open every
day and features a lunch and dinner
buffet as a well as a regular menu.
The former Hensall Tavern has
undergone major renovations both
inside and out since it was pur-
chased in November 1992.
"We began renovating almost im-
mediately in December," Kelly
said.
Renovations continue on the out-
side of the building in the for
colourful rr
murals. "We want to
make the building look more wel-
coming and bright," she said.
In the next few months they
would also like to set up an outdoor
patio. "We have lots of ideas for
the hotel."
It's just a macer making them re-
ality and that's part of the adven-
ture, Kelly said.

Dear Editor:
In this day and age, when one is
bombarded by headlines that out-
line how misdirected our young
people are, it is refreshing to look
at the great things in which the
majority of the South Huron stu-
dents:are involved.
Last week the pupils, who attend
Exeter Public School, were invited
to ScienceWest - a display of sci-
entific concepts. The students
from the high school, who had set
up this exhibition, took the
time to explain
very complicat-
ed scientific
phenomena to
our youngsters us-
ing terminology
and language that
they could understand. Bravo!
On Friday. another group of sen-
ior students came over to E.P.S. to
provide leadership as we travelled
to various parts of the town to help
clean-up our local environment. As
Letter to Edito
Letter from
Irene Mathyssen
To the editor:
In recent articles in Middlesex
County newspapers and the Lon-
don Free press, Dr. Glenn Pearce
correctly identified a problem fac-
ing Northern and rural Ontario - a
shortage of doctors. Concerns
were expressed that recent Minis-
try of' Health plans to control
health care costs and reduce
the supply of doctors may
aggravate this situation. I
would Tike to explain the
Physician and Expenditure
Control Man proposals and al-
leviate concerns held by Mid-
dlesex constituents.
The intention of the Ministry of
Health is to manage the health
care system in Ontario in order to
save it. Every year since 1982,
health care spending increased an
average of 11%. This was unsus-
tainable, and so the Ministry of
Health began aggressive manage-
ment initiatives - reducing the in-
crease to just 1.1% in the fiscal
year just ended, and 0.2% in this
fiscal year.
The Ministry also began consul-
• talions with the Ontario Medical
Association in response to con-
cerns regarding an over -supply of
physicians. Currently, there arc
1,857 general practitioners, 339
pediatricians, and 293 psychia-
trist.% more than the population can
support financially. However, it is
true that at the same time, there
are shortages of these types of
doctors in some rural and North-
ern areas.
So to ensure that communities
like West Middlesex have the doc-
tors they need, the Ministry of
Health has proposed a method of
discounting for new doctors. As
other provinces have already put in
place measures to control the sup-
ply of doctors, the OMA is con-
cerned that doctors may begin
to come to Ontario, further
increasing our problem. So
the Ministry of Health pro-
posal is that newly -entering
general practitioner, pedia-
tricians and psychiatrists
would have their billing discounted
by 75%. But if these doctors prac-
tice in under -serviced areas such as
Newbury, they will receive addi-
tional compensation. This will pro-
mote a better distribution of doctors
and make our health care system
more affordable.
The most serious threat to univer-
sal health care is skyrocketing
costs. Your provincial government
is determined to preserve health
cart for all Ontarians. My objec-
tive, as M.P.P. for Middlesex, is to
make sure that all Middlesex resi-
dents have access to health care.
The Ministry of Health will be
working closely and cooperatively
,with the Ontario Medical Associa-
. lion in the next few weeks to fund
raihc solutions to these pressing con-
- Cern S.
Sincerely,
Irene Mathyssen, MPP
Middlesex
