$37000 from Terrace Bay Mainstream Canada Terrace Bay-Schreiber News, Wednesday, June 6, 1984, page 13: It has been a while in coming but the results of the Kinsmen CF Telethon are finally here. Terrace Bay generously donated a grand total of $3,700.;;. Out of that total, $786.43 was raised by the Grade 6 students of the Terrace Bay Public School through a "Read-A-Thon"' and also a Hot Dog Sale, held during one lunch hour. St. Martin's School students also raised a large portion of that money - $729.55 to be act! Pictured above is Maxine Holland, Grade 6 teacher of St. Martin's, presenting Terrace Bay CF Chairman, Duncan McKay with the cheque for this amount. A sincere thank you goes out to everyone who helped to contribute to this very worthwhile Telethon. It is also pleasing to note that last year's amount of $2,300.00 was exceeded by this year's donations. Congratulations Terrace Bay - you really came through Sor those CF children! dustry subsectors can be identified, small busi- ness-dominated subsec- tors registered net em- ployment growth of more than double the rate of large business- dominated subsectors. The point of all this? Small and medium- sized businesses are. not only important job crea- tors, but the success or failure of these firms will dramatically affect the health of our econo- my and our standard of living. In future, job growth will not come from big business or big govern- ment. Indeed, these sectors are already re- ducing employment. Instead, smaller firms will play a leadership role as the economy grows. As Bulloch said in a recent speech: "We are in the midst of an entre-: preneurial revolution ... if you're an entrepren- eur, it's a great time to be alive."' Startling job news from United States by W. ROGER WORTH Small business is not a minor force in the Canadian economy. That's a point John Bulloch, President of the 64,000 member Cana- dian Federation of In- dependent Business, has been making for years, and now many of the country's policymak- ers and business leaders have accepted this view. Governments at all le- vels have started to de- velop policies that deal with small business SUZUKI settings. If you're looking for the up the Suzuki LT250EF Quadrunner.

And front shocks with five adjustable load problems, and more of the financial institu- tions and major com- panies are tapping the small business resour- ce. Indeed smaller firms are finally being accept- ed as equals. The rea- son: research conduct- ed by the Canadian Fed- eration of Independent Business indicates that all of the nation's net new jobs are being cre- ated by smaller com- panies.
