Don Burton (824-2609) or bethecs bobs Edifoi Praise for Town Crew Dear Editor: Once again your "'Opinion" column has infuriated me, this time to the point that I feel I must respond. Your editorial assist- ant is not the only one who has large amounts of snow on her lawn. As an occupant of a large corner lot, the snow is 3 times higher than I. However, the town crew has to put it somewhere when they are out at 4 a.m., to enable the mill workers to navigate the streets to get to work. High snowbanks are not exclusive to Terrace Bay alone; every munici- pality in Northwestern Ontario has the same problem. Apologies are not necessary to zipping snowmobilers, who seem to regard our streets as their own private dragstrips. Cau- tion and common sense for car drivers should be a prerequisite at this time of year to avoid accidents of all types. This town has a very efficient and dedicated public works depart- ment, and I take except- ion to the fact that she implies otherwise. Win- ter and summer, they strive to improve the appearance of Terrace Bay. As for her giving up one garbage day per week; maybe she could, but others could not. They are too used to having construction material, ashes, dog droppings and. other miscellaneous material picked up bi-weekly by part-time employees, Brian Duffy (824-2068) may be contacted in this regard. Updates will be pro- vided on this tourney, as they are made available. who incidentally have nothing to do with snow removal. Other munici- palities stipulate that household garbage must be just that - household garbage. Spring cleanup here is a farce - every garbage day is spring clean-up. Terrace Bay is lucky to have the high calibre of all town employees that it has. Other muni- cipalities may not be as fortunate. Edward J. Hawkins Thank you snow crew! Dear Editor: After our recent "'thaw", I felt I should write to you to praise the hard work of Terrace Bay's snow removal crew and their foresight to push the slush out of the front of our drive- ways. I had been waiting in dread for the snow- plow to come by and was wondering how I would ever shovel the accumu- lated water-weighted snow from our driveway. I too was having a difficult time shovelling snow over the ever in- creasing height of our snowbanks. And I too came home to see the One Man's Dear Editor: In response to a col- umn in your last issue of the Terrace Bay Schrei- ber "NEWS"; I have been a plow operator in Terrace Bay for close on to thirty years and Ser- vice Foreman for K.C. for close to five years. So - Request help in Dear Editor: } am trying to. re- unite twin sisters who have been separated for more than 80 years and would be most grateful if you would make their story public. Eliza (on whose be- half 1 am working) aud Harriet Flynn were born Aug. 1, 1901, in Hex- ham, England, to Doro- thy Ann, wife of John Flynn, a plasterer. Shortly after birth, Eliza was adopted _pri- vately. Harriet and her moth- er came to Canada ZZ Birth Announcement I know what I'm writing. I take my hat off to the Town Crew for their efforts in snow removal in Terrace Bay, espe- cially this winter with the amount of snow we've had. When you can see the pavement in mid-February, some- round about 1912. Eliza, who still lives in Hex- ham is very anxious to find her long-lost twin. Through research in the U.K. it has been estab- lished that the last news of Harriet occured in 1953 when she was re- ported to be living in Toronto with her hus- band and three child- ren, two boys and a girl. Unfortunately there is no record © of Harrict's husband's last name. It seems likely that Har- riet and her mother may well have settled ori- ginally in the eastern ZZ Ken and Gerri Turner are pleased to announce . the birth of their first child, a daughter "Y MICHELE GENEVIEVE Michele arrived at 6:08 p.m. on January 30, 1984, weighing 7 Ibs. 12 oz. Grandparents are Mr. & Mrs. Raymond Belliveau and Mr. & Mrs. Ken Turner. Special thanks to Debbi McGrath, Darryl Davis. Dr. Wilkes and the Hospital. Nurses at the McCausland SSS. SES banks had been cut back and the snow pushed back from the end of our driveway and onto our lawn. I said thank you! Thank you that the ends of my snow banks were not so high. Thank you that it was now easier to see when driving in and out of the OPINION one is sure doing their job and damn well. As for being up to her knees in snow, I sug- gest she's lucky if I was to read garbage like that in the "NEWS"' when I was operating, she'd be lucky to get over the snow bank with a step re-uniting provinces. The ladies have an older half-bro- ther, Billy McGarity who is known to have work- ed for C.P. in the early 1930s. : If Harriet or her child- ren recognize them- selves from this outline driveway (which I nor- mally do with extreme caution due to the winter hazard of pedestrians and snowmobiles). Thank you snow crew for doing a job well done under conditions I do not envy. Yours truly, Heather Vandergraaf ladder the next storm. I trust the Counil and Roy will ignore her letter and keep up the good work that this town has enjoyed in past years. Yours truly, -Murray (Slim) Dorman or if any one else has information about.
