Why is the main street in town used as a Fair Ground?? We have a great ball field that is not in use all the time and if it inter- rupts two or three days of the ball season so what. We have little enough to do in this town as it is. I am glad to see the fair come to town but lets keep it in the place it should be, out in the country, so to speak, The Tex- aco field is large enough to accommodate the fair as it did so for a Circus that came to town a few years back. It was big enough to hold three large elephants and a menagerie of others. The neighbours around the area on Simcoe Plaza cannot be all that thrilled about the show as it is noisy and smelly and is open until late into the evening. Our town is one of the cleanest on the North Shore and I for one would very much like to see it stay that way. From the tourist point of view, how many towns have you driven through on your summer vacation and come upon a fair plopped down right in the middle of the "towns" business section. Most of the people here turned out for the Circus when it was here, so I don't think it would hinder the attendance in any way if that is a question. It just seems to me that if it was located out at the ball field it would make for a better fair all the way around, starting with the clean-up, smell and most of "all the noise. Maybe we can leave this open for thought next year. Editor's Quote Book Editor's Quote Book You cannot find a short cut to climb a ladder, can you?

What weighs more, a ton of lead or a ton of feathers? You're pro- bably too smart to fall for that one anymore, but try this. What contains the most alcohol of the follow- ing: a cocktail, a glass of table wine or a bottle of beer? If you put them in any order or priority, you're wrong. In fact, all three contain exactly the same amount of alcohol, which may surprise a lot of wine and beer drinkers who routinely pass up on spirits because they think their traditional preferences are lighter. But that just isn't so. The truth of the matter is that a drink with a 1% ounce serving of spirits, a glass with 5 ounces of table wine and a 12-ounce bottle of regular beer all contain the same amount of alcohol. "'Many Canadians har- bour misconceptions about alcohol beverages,"" says Kay Kendall from the Distillers of Canada. "It's often hard to throw away time-honoured beliefs. But in the age of enlightened consumers, it's important people know the true facts about the alcohol they are consuming."" Lhe Distillers of Canada want to educate the public about the alcohol content of distilled spirits versus wine and beer. **Moderation should be everyone's goal when en- joying a sociable drink, and it's not the perceived qualities of what you drink but the quantity that con- trols the amount of alcohol you consume. So let your tastes by your guide when you select an alcohol beverage,' says Kendall. These facts may surprise you, but don't be alarmed. At one time we all fell for the lead and feathers story too.
