1) That everyone is an expert in everything; 2) That a person elected to a position of public trust immediately becomes suspect.\u201cWith this kind of thinking you could not even get a Minor Hockey House Team going, let along a country.\u201d Equality candidate Mario Fortin remarked that it was a \u201csad\u201d thing that the referendum didn\u2019t go through.Also, there should have been a direct question of sovereignty asked.\u201cI have faith the people in Quebec would have said no to separation, then we could have worked on constitution.\u201d MNA Andre Chenail thanked sincerely his team for all their hard work.The one thing that won't change is his \u201ccontinuing work\u201d in his riding for his constituents.Those who made the decision will have to live with it.\u201cMore is learned in defeat than in victory,\u201d he reasoned.This is one of the lessons of life.Phillip Norton THE GLEANGR \u2014 x Descendants of the original voltigeurs who fought back an \u2018American attack at Allan\u2019s Corners participated in an anniversary ceremony at the obelisk of the Parks Canada Battle of Chateauguay last Sunday, October 25.They were not blood descendants but rather member of the Fourth Battalion of the Royal 22nd Regiment of the Canadian Army which traces its origins back to the militiamen of Charles- Michel de Salaberry.October 26 marked the | ee 73 Representing Canada at the 179th anniversary of the Battle of Chateauguay;

to provide work for incapacitated veterans employed in Vetcraft shops and to preserve the memory of those who died in the service of their country.The success of our Poppy Campaign must be measured in two areas, that of its effectiveness in promoting remembrance, and in the amount of money it makes available to help ex-service personnel and their dependants.The distribution of poppies should not be regarded only in a commercial sense.Distribution of poppies willever perpetuate remembrance and the memory of those who paid the supreme sacrifice.Lest we forget.Raymond Stonehouse Think security for Halloween: Optimist Club On October 31st, it will be Halloween.The Optimist Club of Huntingdon wants to advise you of all the steps that are being taken for your security and what is expected from you on Halloween night.The streets of Huntingdon will be watched by us and others.You will be able to recognize us with our blue-and-white sweaters.If you see something that is not normal, please tell one of us so that we can help you.Furthermore, the following addresses can be used for your security: - Guy Fournier, 49 Hunter, Huntingdon - Monique Galipeau Caza, H.Primeau Inc., 143, Chateauguay, Huntingdon Wellington you from falling.- Jean Beauchamp, 53 Prince, Huntingdon - Dépanneur M.Fournier et Fils, Bouchette/ - Pierre Demers, 76 York, corner of Bouchette - Claude Létourneau, 381 Bergeron, street in front of Rock Trépanier Auto.- Roch Daigle, 187 Fairfield, past the arena - Serge Gosselin, 1 Brisebois, Huntingdon.We want to suggest a few security steps that you can take on Halloween night.- Wear a costume that is not too long to prevent - Use make-up instead of a mask.If you can\u2019t, make sure that your eyes and mouth are properly free from any obstruction - Use bright colors.- Use a flash light on dark streets.- Please do not eat candies until they have been inspected by your parents.When your trick or treat is finished, the Optimist Club invites you to a feast at St-Joseph school on York street.Your parents and yourself will have great pleasure looking at other costumes.Animation, games and prizes will entertain you.If you are students of any of the 3 elementary schools, we expect to see you from 6:30 to 9:00 p.m.Optimist Club of Huntingdon Friend of the youth soapstone and other scul- putres as well as her paint- - ings and pen.drawing®.Wayne McKell showed acrylic works and Denyse Touchette filled a room with colourful oil paintings and pen sketches.Her painting also adorns this cover of this year\u2019s Journal.Photographs were displayed by George Robertson;

\u201cWhy this building and why this sign?In 1950, Huntingdon didn\u2019t have a covered arena as the old one on King has been demolished.In the same year a group of citizens from the County of Huntingdon, mostly war veterans, wanted a monument to the memory of the dead veterans.And so the idea of the Huntingdon County War Memorial Arena was born.\u201cThat summer the organizers conceived the idea of Old Home Week as a fundraiser.After a season of hard work, the magnificent sum of $5,000 was in the kitty.\u201cThe organizers continued their efforts and at the end of 1954 they had collected $15,000, obtained 4 $25.000 grant, and formed a incorporated company called the Huntingdon War Memorial Arena Limited.President \u2014 Abe Antoine, Sect.Treas.\u2014 Leo Capiello.The Arena was built in 1957 and the first day of hockey was held in January of 1958.\u201cAfter 15 years of operation and having failed to secure financial backing for the installation of artificial ice, the company sought to sell the facility.Mayor Claude Pilon knew of the problem and realized the value of such an important sports facility.He interested the mayors of six neighbouring municipalities in forming a board of management to purchase and operate the building.The municipalities, as new owners, obtained an important grant from the Provincial and Federal governments.The artificial ice was installed and necessary improvements made to the building.The name was changed to The Huntingdon Regional Arena.\u201cSeven years ago a complete renovation of the building was begun.It is now all but completed.Legion members and many others wished that the original name of the building be remembered, and today we have that recognition.\u201cThere are some who would think that havin English on the sign is illegal, but there is an article in Bill 101 that covers this kind of sign.I would like to congratulate the members of the board who manage this building, and are all present today for this momentous occasion.\u201cThank you Legion members, past and present for the years of peace and prosperity that have been ours because of your sacrifices so many years ago.And today we can see, A

Prior to joining the Centre in 1991, Cooper held numerous executive and administrative positions with the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food.She has a B.Sc in Animal Science from the University of Guelph (1985) and a MBA from Wilfrid Laurier University (1991).The George Morris Centre has published numerous reports and studies concerning the economic impact of agricultural policies, including analysis of the NAFTA, supply management in the apple sector and, most re- CVR field hockey midgets coast to SSIAA crown The Lady Spartans CVR * * Becky McDougall and midget field hockey squad went all the way in the SSIAA under rookie coach Eliane Triggs.The team posted a 6-0 record this season, beating Chambly County, Richelieu Valley and Centennial Regional twice each.Centre Julie Boyle led the club in scoring, ably backed by forward Megan Woods and competent halfback Shawna Ferns.Kizzy Lopez gave coach Triggs a calm, cool and collected demeanor in nets.One game was decided by penalty kicks but Lopezremained obliviousto the pressure.Erica Denison registered two key goals during the campaign while Jennifer Grantand Erin Lepine shone at the fullback position.Rookies Lindsay Blair and Beth Walker showed great potential for the future.In the juvenile division, it all boils down to a sudden- death encounter at the neutral Chambly County field tomorrow (Thursday) between CVR and Centennial.Since the Lady Spartans\u2019 only game against Centennial was rained out, coach Fay Craig was hoping tomorrow \u2019scrucial matchup would be held at CVR \u201cwhere we\u2019re definitely stronger.\u201d But her request was denied.The teams are about as even as humanly possible.They met twice during the regular season, with each clubrecording a 1-0 victory.\u201cIt\u2019s exciting when it comes down to this,\u201d said Craig.\u201cIt won't be an easy win for either side.We're very competitive and close in ability, and I know our girls will be fired up for it.\u201d Craig praises centre half Wendy Ness forowning \u201cthe bestdrive(shot) inthe league.She can drive it from our goal post to the other end of the field.She can do that at CVR butonasmallerneutral field, the ball goes out of bounds.\u201d Nevertheless, Craig says the junior provincial coach wants Ness lo try out for the Quebec team, along with Lady Spartans nctminder Nancy Cameron.\u201cWendy is also fast, strong and a real team icader,\u201d she attests.Wendy Brunet have tallied important goals for CVR this year.Jody Wallace and Emily Triggs, elevated from midget ranks to bolster the juveniles, have \u201cnot been outclassed\u201d at halfback.Triggs was transferred there from the forward position, displaying \u201cimpressive speed and good moves.Sometimes we have to juggle they players around to see where they excel,\u201d Craig explains.Dan Rosenburg cently, the implications of tarification in a GATT deal.Power of positive thinking \u2018The afternoon speaker will be Eleanor Wood, a partner in an Ontario dairy farm and one of the developers of the Ontario \u201cFARM\u201d kitused as an Agriculture in the Classroom (AITC) activity at the elementary school level.Wood will give a presentation on why she wants to farm, an animated as well as entertaining look at the reasons for keeping farmers in farming.She spoke before the QFAs \u201cAgriculture in Your Classroom\u201d workshop last spring, bringing a similar message to school teachers interested in resurrecting some agriculture back into their classrooms.Wood makes the point that the world population is expected to double in the next 40 years and that all of the people will have to eat.\u201cFarmers need to be encouraged to stay in business if we're going to have them down the road,\u201d she said.The day\u2019s events will be wrapped up with a wine and cheese recepten, where \u2014 QFA members will have a chance to renew old friendships and meet new acquaintances.The result - one way or the other - of the referendum on constitutional reform will likely be a hot topic of discussion as well.Tickets include lunch and wine & cheese and are available from local QFA Fieldpersons and Directors, or by calling the QFA Provincial Office at 514-457- 2010.\u201c Kerjean, Christian Descossy and Michel Archambault, he has undertaken steps toward the site\u2019s conversion and announced these at a press conference last week in Valleyfield.They are proposing a commercial outdoor sports complex which would be self-financing by renting the facilities for various activi- tiesandevents.These events andactivities would bealong the lines of the municipality \u2019s goals agro-alimentary and recreo-touristic.They are speaking specifically of a four-season sports center with hiking trails, cycling, horseback riding and cross-country skiing; a summer camp for youth; a gathering place for agricultural activities such as an apple festival, winery tour route, and welcome center forsugaring season; adisplay case for products of the region and for the tourism services offered in the municipality.According to the Faille team, the renaissance of the Dorea Institute would create jobs and create an outdoor recreation image for the region.André Hébert who is working alongside the team provided a brief history of the site.Dorea Institute, formerly known as the Village d\u2019Enfants, was created in 1949-50by Father Gabriel Lussier, the son of the St.Antoine-Abbé tailor Joseph Lussier.His goal was to help the handicapped, orphaned, and underprivileged children through re-educa- tion and recreational activities.A few years ago, Dorea and several such centers of the Valleyfield region fused under the umbrella of the Services de Réadaptation du Sud-Ouest headquartered at Châteauguay.This system favours the use of smaller residences for a few number of beneficiaries so that the Dorea site has been used less.Dorea he said.tion center.out the municipality.Laurent.No prison in mayor\u2019s plan for Franklin Mayor Jean Laplante says Dorea Institute ranks high on his projects lists if he is reelected on November 1.He holds hope of keeping it as it is, safeguarding the jobs of the region.Still, he could see a project being realized at this site relating to the rural municipality\u2019s character and recreational-touristic qualities.No prison or detention center is in the future plan for this area, This statement follows the October meeting of the MRC where, during the question period, a Hinchinbrooke resident, Scott Disher, revealed that provincial officials have been looking into the possibility of using the Dorea facility for a deten- Mayor Laplante and his team of candidates for council, Germain Brault, Claude Lefebvre and Gilles McKenzie, have also set as a priority the paving of gravel roads through government grants.Keeping taxes down is an important aspect of his administration; he notes that salaries of elected officials and municipal employees have been frozen and that taxes in Franklin rank among the lowest in the MRC Haut St.Laurent.Another thorny problem which has not gone away is that of used tire storage sites.He hopes to attract a plant which would rid Franidié 4 dum s by transforming the tires.fi iE plante notes among his accomplishments : as oe] that the Franklin Town Hall was renovated after being \u201ccondemned\u201d at the beginning of his term.He also obtained, with the help of council and other representatives, various road repairs from the Ministry of Transports as well as new bridges and improved lighting for safety through- He also worked to enlarge the urban plan for his district and he intervened to the Environment Ministry of Quebec on the issue of tire dumps to assure safe storage practices.He takes credit, too, for the realization of a recyclcing pick-up which he claims was the first within the MRC Haut St.of its ° ATTENTION FARMERS!
