The Goderich Signal-Star, 1971-08-12, Page 3Round and About
With Martha
if am afraid to , mention
water—in any shape --these,, days
because someone is reminded of
what is happening to our
waterways. Some are now taking
notice and don't like what they
see. There is always a lot of
"why don't they da this --or
that—?" never ` "I want to
help --what can I do?"
I.. think we can all he pl"he
Situation by being ° AWARE.
That little word can work
wonders or cause eruptions: We
ha..? ignored things which. were
goig on before our eyes because
of ignorance`, or' because —we
wanted to. Now, we are going to
have to take notice and I hope it
isn't too late.
A • great many people could
care less—but they are usually
the ones who' have no thought
for other peoples' property „or
• their rights.
'1' h eij're „ just' . car`eles's
characters -'-helve today gone
tomorrow. They don't want to
. have to be concerned I ver
pollution or things about them.
They think only of themselves
and THEIR - own comfort and
what they can get out of you -if
they take the trouble to
recognize you.
They won't limn a hand or
bend their knee to pick up their
own mess or keep our nice town
neat and tidy while they are
using it. We, can do withoutthis
type but sad to say they are with
us and WE put up with there. We
should speak up and make them
aware of their surroundings—
make them see we
are tryin.g to
!wp�'isY�C',GYiiIJ�. '•n� 1'lf �',Ray�y.Y:vi�E� 4f'^-' -'
• make them WANT to help us.
Our town—even with the
up-heaval of repairs—is still very
o .beautiful and we want to keep it
that way.
_.. And. .the_ old maitland-we
'need to join forces with those
who are trying to make'
themselves heard and force these
towns to back up and keep their
old sewage—we pay PLENTY for
our ,share .of the problem, so
why can't other towns do the
same?
to
Every 'day, visitors --the kind
-we would like to have come
again --remark about have
we
take for granted --things that
meant a little more work or
Money bur really show up to our
new comers.
One thing which we can be
happy a out is the way our
harbour has been used and the
great impression it`.. has created
along the waterways of Ontario.
We should have had it YEARS
ago! ..
Here• in Goderich our river Is
beautiful and ' one could" still
Write.. poetry about it --as did
Harry Symond—away back
when, with his tale of the
"Valley of the Maitland", Mr.
Simonds was born and raised in
Colborne Township and really
knew the ' river valley,.. , I
happened on his poem which `he
revised in '66—but do not know
any more about. the man, who
was living in Windsor at that
time.
He called it "The Bright
Stream—long . known as the
Maitland- and so named by the
settlers of old, but • called
Minnesetung by the Red Man ..
who peopled -our valley"
Whether the word has now
,been changed to Menesetung or
there was a misprint I wouldn't
know, but it would be
interesting to see other poetry of
Mr, Symonds in print in our
•
Signal. ,
Nice things are happening alt
around us—like family
,1GIl1LCreU1OI�Ss;,plain
get -to -gathers.'
You will see a write up about
the Allin-,Johnston gathering
last week. The Norman ARM.
family trecked from the foothills
of Alberta . all the way from
spots all aeros,F Canada "to 'be
here. Their only regret was that
Norman—father, Uncleetc. to so
manylad passed 'on. • He was a
:real live wire and would have
contributed a great deal to the
'music, fun and just plain ctittin'
up. '
S'EPTEMBER; 1
LEAVE
TORONTO
I would have liked to have.,
been there when everyone
gathered around for the singing
of the fine old songs. *TMs is '
almost. a lost art now since the
songs of today seem to be made
up as you go along and everyone
must sit and listen to one person
instead of getting in On the
harmony too.
You -just can't beat cuddling
around- a fire, crooning the old
oldies—most of us have
forgotten the words—but ypu •
can always join in with the
harmony(-?-)
Yours for more harmony --Martha
