With scaffolding, brushes and paint, they are rejuvenating the tired old face of a sleepy little town that was the oil capital of Canada and a thriving com- munity of 10,000 at the turn of the ntury- The long. since dis- appearedcebut spacious old man - oil has sions, shops and a 600 -seat opera house—all constructed during the boom years long ago --remain from the past.

"At first everybody in town was really suspicious.of us," says 19 -year-old Ian Smith, project leader. "But after we did our first store front, the response was tre- mendous. Now practically every- body wants to get his store done." A rejuvenation for the main street of the town, 10 miles south- east of Sarnia, is not a new issue. For almost six years a facelift has been talked over among townsfolk. However, due to the high cost of initiating such a ven- ture with commercial painters, the plan never got underway. "I think that we're doing a bet- ter job than a commercial painter would," says Ian. "We aren't under any pressure, to get the job done in a hurry.'•We. can ■i i tui I IMI I IMII iii I IMI I IMI I TNI I til I IuI I IMl i i 2 Bedroom Home Situateill 2 blocks from main street, 'I's masonite sid- ing, all conveniences.
