by Conrad Felber Years ago, the downtown | core of Schreiber had a_ variety store. *Then it burned down. Later, another store appeared, but it closed down shortly afterwards. After living through sucha series of events, Schreiber resident Dominic Deleo decided to do something about the situation himself. Duplicate Bridge Duplicate bridge 'is played every Friday even- ing at 7:30 p.m. in the Home Economics Room of the Terrace Bay High Terrace Bay-Schreiber News, Wednesday, March 5, 1986, page 9 Schreiber downtown area now has a variety store again Ne . 4g He opened his own variety store in town on February 14. "I had been thinking about this for quite a while," he explained in an interview shortly after the store opened. "I have always had it in my mind to do something like this." As a Schreiber native, he had seen a number of such shops come and go from the downtown area, though there hasnt been one there for over five years. Now there is another one, though it boasts something none of the other stores ever had: a_ hairstyling salon in the back. Deleo said the salon had been his first line of work until he decided earlier this year to open a_ variety store. He still wanted to keep the salon, however, so he moved it to the open area at the back of the building. "Yes, I will continue with Dominic's Uni-sex Hairstyling," he stressed. Both establishments are located at 313 Scotia Street. He and his wife, Rita, will be running the shop at the front, which is why he named the store D & R Variety. Their son Vince, 6, and daughter Théresa, 5, sometimes lend a hand.' "The store is coming along quite well now, con- sidering I have only been open here for a few days."* Deleo said. He added that the shop has a complete line of grocery staples, jincluding milk and bread, as well as cigarettes, health products, and *'lots of candy for the kids.' D & R Variety also stocks magazines and com- ic books. Deleo pointed out that the shop's hours are from 9 am. to 12 midnight every day, seven days a week, making it a true con- venience store.

Maybe doctors and patients should look in a mirror and ask if health care should be more the -individual's respon- sibility and less the govern- ment's? Why advocate' the teaching of sex in schools if nobody is practising care of the body itself? Perhaps doctors are overworked - perhaps: a lot of us should have known better than to abuse our eyes or stomach or muscles. Maybe it is because the doctors are *"'overworked"' that their premise of per- sonal involvement with pa- tients' total health has dissipated. There seems to be almost total indifference to the impact of time, travel, and expense when the doctor suggests '"'come back in three months"', or words to that effect. The following are some statistics one could use to argue against extra billing unless a system of contra- accounting were to be allowed: HEART AND STROKE FOUNDATION OF ONTARIO Third: Art Leblanc and Paul Cebrario: ~ 1979: First contact with doctor by patient of an outlying community - Bus fares: $44.00 1980: Feb. through Nov. - Lodging: $188.30.
