AYER'S CLIFF FAIR August 24-27 WIN WE FUN! THE record The voice of the Eastern townships since 1897 Cookshire Fair iss* £Oition August 17th to DON'T MISS IT! 85 CENTS Friday, August 18, 2000 Teenage girl dies in Asbestos car accident By Shawn Berry Police believe a 17-year-old girl killed on impact in a noon hour traffic accident in Asbestos yesterday died due to poor signage at the intersection of Route 249 and 1st Avenue.“We’ve had four accidents at that intersection this year," said Cst.Stéphane Couture of the Asbestos Municipal Police Force.It is often unclear to motorists stopped on 1st Avenue that the highway is four lanes and that cars coming towards them from the left may not be slowing down to make a right hand turn, but continuing straight through at regular speed.The teenage girl who was driving a New Beetle, he said, was stopped on 1st Avenue, slowly inching forward when she was struck on the passenger side by a pick-up truck.The speed limit on that stretch of the highway is 80 km per hour.Police do not believe that speeding was a factor in the accident.&ÉÉT PERKY BEATON/SPECIAX.This bluff on the edge of Ayer's Cliff has already been clearcut and excavated, but the work has come to an abrupt halt now that Justice Raynald Fréchette issued a temporary injunction to prevent further work until he hears the case.By Rita Legault Sherbrooke A Superior Court Judge in Sherbrooke has issued an injunction to stop construction of an industrial park in Ayer’s Cliff - on the hill that gave the town its name.Plans for the industrial development, which has divided the town, includes building an industrial hotel on a bluff near the centre of town, part of a 20-acre property that extends from Tyler street to the Tomifobia River.According to the lawsuit initiated by the Comité Concerned Citizens of Ayer’s Cliff, developer Richard Goulet, whose father Fernand is the town’s foreman, plans to level the incline to erect a huge building to house offices and garages for his construction firm, a commercial ‘condominium’ for small and medium-sized businesses, and a factory to build prefabricated homes.The suit also states that Pré-Usinage Goulet plans to subdivide part of the property and sell lots for a residential development.Residents, who say the huge development is on land they claim is ecologically sensitive, also say Goulet has been excavating topsoil from the industrial lot, moving it to another lot where he is setting up a housing development.Goulet was set to begin construction when the court ruling was handed down Thursday morning by Justice Raynald Fréchette.SEE DEVELOPMENT, PAGE

once again, environmental experts say it will take years for the fish population to recover.“Our tests show that the river can once again support fish,” said provincial wildlife technician Michel Laten-dre.“If we leave it alone it will repopulate slowly over the coming years.” Environment and wildlife officials from Quebec, Canada and Vermont met with the mayors of Potton and Sutton Township Thursday to discuss the Missisquoi River situation.The group then held a news conference, this time filled with mostly good news.Chantal Duhaime of Environment Canada said the cleanup of dead fish along the 20 km.of river was completed Tuesday evening.In all, the workers from the Onyx environmental firm gathered five 45-gallon drums of dead fish from the river.Nets set up to catch other floating dead fish will most likely stay in place until Sunday to catch any others that have been missed.“There are still little things here and there, but really nothing compared to what we had,” Duhaime said.Of the 20 species of fish that were known to live in the Missisquoi between Highwater and Glen Sutton, only about five species remain, Laten-dre said.Those species are mostly minnows.Environment Quebec spokesman Emile Grieco said the chemical shock to the river was fairly short and intense.Three days after a feed mill fire in North Troy, Vt., which caused the chemical spill, copper levels were 250 times above normal.Two days after that, the levels had dropped to 45 times above normal, and by last Sunday water tests showed back to normal levels.“Manganese levels were also back to normal, and the toxicity level of the water has returned to zero,” Grieco said.The public health advisory forbidding fishing, swimming or coming into contact with the river water has been lifted.However, the authorities say the ban on eating fish from the river will remain in effect until at least next spring.Duhaime said the cost of the cleanup has been around $32,000 so far, and will probably increase depending on what is done to further restore the river.She said the owners of the Old Mill in North Troy have been asked to cover the cost, but so far have not responded.Duhaime did not rule out legal action against the feed mill, if necessary.Meanwhile, it seems that Vermont and Missisquoi Bay managed to avoid the worst of the effects of the chemical spill.Marc Roy of the Vermont Department of Environmental Conservation said there was no significant fish kill south of the border.In Swanton, near the mouth of Missisquoi Bay on Lake Champlain, water test results showed “no contaminants of concern.” “We saw some dead fish, but nothing like the amount seen in Quebec,” he said.Roy said the list of chemicals at the site of the fire aren’t classified as toxic substances.Copper sulfate, the main substance implicated in the fish kill, is a vitamin supplement added to farm feed.Roy also said that officials from the Old Mill were invited to Thursday’s meeting in Mansonville but declined to come.With the worst of the ecological disaster over, attention will now focus on what comes next.“It is too early to say how the rebuilding will be done,” said Duhaime.Latendre said the river will eventually recolonize itself if left alone, though that could take several years.He said one problem with a restocking program is that some foraging fish species, such as catfish, perch or sun-fish, are not commercially available.“We also don’t want to put fish in if the food chain is not there to support them,” he said.Sutton Township mayor Winston Bresee said he’s pleased with how the environmental authorities handled the situation.He admits things could have been much worse.“The important thing is that there doesn’t look like there will be a long term impact, other than the fish,” he said.“And now the businesses like the Diable Vert and the campground can get going again.” Bresee said a few residences will have their wells tested to ensure the water supply is safe.Briefs $600,000 for Georgeville’s federal wharf Staff The federal government and Stanstead Township will invest $600,000 to drastically renovate the Georgeville federal wharf on Lake Memphremagog.The announcement was made Wednesday.The federal government will pay $500,000 of the improvements, with Stanstead Township contributing $100,000.Part of the upper section of the wharf and the lower sections of the landing will be demolished and rebuilt.Work being done in conjunction with the township will include reconstruction and paving of the approach to the wharf and a new electrical system.Retaining walls will also be built around the wharf face.Once the project is complete, the wharf will be transferred to the jurisdiction of Stanstead Township under the Department of Fisheries and Oceans’ Recreational Harbours Divestiture Program.Extrication team gets some cash from Lennoxville Staff Lennoxville’s town council has agreed to donate $25 to the town’s extrication team for every fire hydrant in the town painted by members of the Lennoxville Volunteer Firefighters Association.The extrication team, which competes in events simulating rescues requiring the ‘jaws of life,’ is headed to the International Extrication Competi- tion in Louisville, Kentucky, between Oct.10 and 14.Lennoxville’s extrication team took first-place in the South Eastern Quebec Extrication Competition which was held at Bishop’s University in May.New fire lieutenants in Lennoxville Staff Lennoxville’s town council named two new lieutenants to the fire department at Monday night’s council meeting.Andrew Doherty was promoted to the position of lieutenant in charge of fire and rescue.Brent Sutton, president of the Lennoxville Volunteer Firefighters Association, was promoted to the position of lieutenant in charge of safety and water supply.ai an » mpriquiia Dennis Glezos CHARTERED ACCOUNTANT "We add value to your business’ Tel.: 819-823-0800 Lennoxville

Charest take a break from the annual barbecue at Charest’s father's island in Magog to conduct interviews with the media.Charest is a man who wants to work for the best interests of Quebec - Poupart Staff Robert Bourassa’s former press attaché will be joining the Quebec Liberal Party again, this time as the party’s head of staff “We’ve got a bunch of young people who have agreed to work for Mr.Charest, so I’ll be giving them a hand, showing them the ABCs of certain aspects of the job,” Ronald Poupart said at Charest’s annual barbecue on Lake Memphremagog.“A legislator is elected to sit in the as- sembly and defend the interests of the constituents,” Poupart said.The job which he and his staff must perform is to prepare Liberal MNAs.Poupart complained that Charest, the former leader of the Progressive Conservative Party, is constantly being labelled as a Conservative and a federalist in the media.“He’s a Liberal who works in Quebec for Quebecers.He served Quebecers at the federal level.” Poupart identified Charest as a man who wants to work for the best interests of Quebec.“We’ve finally found a modern leader," Poupart said, indicating he felt that should Charest take power, the government would be more open.Poupart said he became involved in politics because wanted to make a difference in the lives of those less fortunate in society.Citizens say the area had trees 50 to 100 years old Development: CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 Stating the urgency to act immediately, Justice Frechette issued an immediate order to cease all work on the site, particularly cutting trees and re- moving topsoil to other sites, dynamiting, construction and subdividing lots.The ruling covers Goulet, all the company’s officers, administrators and employees, as well as any subcontractors hired to help out.The ruling also orders Goulet to remove all machinery and tools from the site.Council has claimed it had to allow the project to go through because it does not contravene municipal regulations and those of the Memphremagog regional municipal council (MRC).But citizens opposed to the project have accused town council of hiding behind municipal regulations to ignore demands for a environmental assessment of the project.In their suit, citizens state the area was first settled by the Ayer family which, along with the cliff, gave the town its name.They say the area is rich in wildlife, and was used extensively for school outings and educational activities as well as by nature lovers for bird watching, hiking and camping.Citizens declare the area had been populated with mature trees between 50 and 100 years old and replete with threatened species such as wild garlic and certain rare ferns.Furthermore, the forest sheltered a number of protected and endangered animals species such as wild turkeys, red-shouldered hawks and pileated woodpecker.The citizens claim the municipality and the environment ministry have ignored regulations and allowed the developer to proceed with a number of activities which contravene various municipal, regional and provincial regulations, and that the work must stop.The interlocutory injunction, which is based on a cursory glance at the case to ensure it is based in law, lasts ten days.The next step is to seek a permanent injunction.A tentative court date to hear the facts of the case is set for August 28.At that time, the judge will hear from both parties and their expert witnesses before making a final ruling.Goulet could not be reached for comment.Citizens, who won their case, decided not to comment, saying the ruling spoke for itself.visit Record’s booth at the COOKSHIRE FAIR August 18-20 BOOTH HOURS: FRIDAY: 1 - 5 p.m.& 6 - 8 p.m.SATURDAY: 1 - 5 p.m.& 6 - 8 p.m.SUNDAY: 11 a.m.- 3 p.m.SUBSCRIPTION RATES 6

5 Tory defections ‘not a By Rita Legault Despite rumours that are spreading like wildfire.Conservative MP André Bachand says he’s not worried that his two Townships Tory colleagues are about to defect to the Liberals.“Everyone is saying it’s a done deal, but I don’t believe it," Bachand told the Record.“Until they confirm the rumour, it’s not a done deal.” The Richmond-Arthabaska MP is one of three Townships Conservatives elected on the coattails of then popular Tory leader Jean Charest, who has since left federal politics to lead the provincial Liberal party.The only other Conservative MP elected in Quebec, Chicoutimi MP André Harvey, defected to the Liberals last year.Despite persistent rumours that his closest colleagues are about to jump ship, Bachand said he’s not worried that he will become the successor to Roch Lasalle - the longtime Conservative MP from Joliette who, for years, was the lone Conservative MP from Quebec in the House of Commons.Bachand said scuttlebutt that Comp-ton-Stanstead MP David Price and Shef-ford MP Diane St-Jacques are about to join the Liberals is rife on Parliament Hill, especially in the offices of Liberal cabinet ministers.A Liberal cabinet minister told a longtime Liberal organizer from the Townships this week that the defections were a done deal.He said Price and St-Jacques were waiting until September 13, the day after the by-election in Nova-Scotia to an-nounce their intentions to desert the Conservatives.It appears that neither Price nor St-Jacques, who were firm supporters of Joe Clark during the Conservative leadership race, want to hurt Clark’s chances of finally taking a seat in the house.The Liberals have been courting Comp-ton-Stanstead MP David Price almost since the day he was elected.Price, who still carries a provincial Liberal card in his wallet, has worked extensively as a Liberal organizer for MNA Monique Gagnon- RECORD FILES * | m Compton-Stanstead MP David Price.Tremblay in his hometown riding of St-François.Shefford MP Diane St-Jacques does not have any strong ties to the Liberals, but the Grits are seeking candidates to ensure they gain more seats than the sover-eignist Bloc Québécois, which has held a majority of Quebec seats in the last two parliaments.Bachand confirmed Price will be absent from a Conservative provincial council this weekend, but he said it was a leap to make a link between his absence and a possible defection.He said Price, a longtime mayor and councillor in Lennoxville, had a previous commitment to go to a municipal golf tournament.Bachand said there is a lot of flux in the political landscape in Ottawa and that it is premature for his colleagues to be making a decision on their political futures.“There are a whole lot of questions, and little certainty,” he said, adding that once the House of Commons reconvenes on September 18, things will clear up.done deal’ RECORD FILES Conservative MP André Bachand.“We will get a chance to really see the principal actors in action," he said, adding that once Stockwell Day takes his seat in Parliament, Canadians will get a chance to see his true colours.Bachand said that the spotlight has been on Day all summer with the Canadian Alliance leadership convention, his ascension to the head of the party, and the by-elections called to allow Day and Clark to get elected to the House.Once parliament begins sitting again, that spotlight is sure to be shifted, he said.“We will be able to ask him questions and we’ll get the traditional Reform answers,” Bachand predicted, adding that Canadians, and Quebecers especially, will not agree with his far right message that is anti-gay, anti-abortion and pro death penalty.“He will be confronted with his policies, ideas and statements and we will be able to get out our ammunition so people can learn who Day really is.” Bachand said Day’s ideas are distant to those of the Conservative party and Que- Bachand RECORD FILES Shefford MP Diane St-Jacques.becers, adding that he’s pleased that if his colleagues are indeed considering a defection they would go further to the left and not further to the right.Bachand said that personally, he is not considering his options in case the Conservatives collapse.“That is still a very hypothetical scenario,” he said, adding that he does not believe the Tories are about to disintegrate.Price’s office said the MP was no longer making any comments about the persistent and growing rumours concerning his political future.His assistant France Lacroix, who was carefully screening calls, confirmed Price will not be at the general council because he had already made plans before the Tory meeting was scheduled in mid-July.Lacroix also commented that Price wouldn’t do anything to hurt Clark’s chances of getting elected.St-Jacques, who was out of town, could not be reached for comment till Friday.If gambling has become more than just a game for you, call Gambling: help and referral, toll-free:

to the Record Velmore Smith is back at his familiar post outside the Lennoxville Provigo and that is a sure sign that the Lennoxville edition of the Terry Fox Run is alive and kicking.“I am so glad that we have been able to keep the race going,” Smith said in between signing up donors for his walk in next month’s race.“I don’t want to say how much I have raised so far this year, but it has been going good.” It has been going good for Smith for the last 20 years and the Record carrier was happy to divulge the fact that he has raised over $70,000 dollars since participating in his first Terry Fox event in 1980.For many, the Terry Fox Run has been a staple in their lives, an annual event that brought together families, friends, corporations and organizations, raising millions of dollars for cancer research.The fact that it almost didn’t happen this year is an example of how we often take things for granted.At the conclusion of last year’s race, Doug Grant announced that he and his volunteer group were no longer able to run the event.Everyone applauded their efforts, thanked them kindly for their 20 years of community service, and assumed that someone else would pick up the mantle.Those same people were shocked earlier his month when Smith and the Record broke the story that the race was not going to be held.As soon as the story hit the streets, concerned citizens mobilized into action.An ad hoc committee was quickly formed and the race was back on track.Steve Zatylny, Shelly Bray, Bridget Perry-Gore, John Reid, Margaret Royal, Nelson Williams and Monica Schaffer have all agreed to pool their talents and make the event a reality.While the committee has a strong Bishop’s College School flavour, Zatylny is quick to point out that the group is independent of the private school.“The first thing I want to mention is Terry Fox’s dream, when he began his Marathon of Hope in 1980, was to raise one dollar from each Canadian.that this not a BCS event, but rather a community one, and we welcome anyone who wants to get involved as a volunteer or participant,” Zatylny said in a recent interview.“We are changing the course site but everything else will be basically the same.The key thing is to make up for lost time.We want people to know that the run is on and everyone is urged to participate in one way or another.” Indeed, if people are unable to actually participate in the event by being an on-site volunteer or a participant, you can still be involved through sponsoring a walker or runner or making a donation to the organizing committee.Schaffer, who recently moved to Lennoxville to set up a massage therapy clinic, will be participating in her first Lennoxville Terry Fox event.Like many others participants, Schaffer feels a personal need to help fight cancer and was anxious to volunteer when she heard that the run might not be held in Lennoxville.“Even though I was at Bishop’s University for three years, I never ran in the Lennoxville’s Terry Fox run, although I did participate in Nova Scotia," Schaffer said.“I have a father who is battling cancer right now and recently a close friend died from cancer.This is my way of supporting people I love and trying to stop it from happening to others." Terry Fox’s dream, when he began his Marathon of Hope back in 1980, was to raise one dollar from each Canadian.To date, over $220 million has been raised worldwide.In the 20 years since its inception, there have been 5000 runs held in 56 countries trying to fulfill another dream, finding a cure for cancer.The Terry Fox Foundation Mission Statement is “.to maintain the vision and principles of Terry Fox while raising money for cancer research through the annual Terry Fox Run, bequests and memoriam donations." That was possible for years in Lennoxville because of the work of Doug Grant and his volunteers.Now, a new group of Townshippers is making it possible to get involved in a variety of ways.Let’s all do our part - it is a great cause.This is the first of a series of stories leading up to next month’s run.For further information on the Terry Fox run or to get entry forms please contact Steve Zatylny @ 565-3253 or 566-0227.* SUBARU August axTRACTION OUTBACK 2000 AUTOMATIC - Fully equipped - All wheel drive -165 h.p.Transport & preparation included.• 4» month Imm, «0,000 kill per year.SM»S down or oquhmlont »xch«ng» Dump, 1""“ in»ur»nc««x|ni, .OaWkm QwilMitSidiiocttocroÆfpproyiri.PhotoforBluotrmkmwijy.lease from **'• 379/month The Beauty of All-Wheel Drive.DIE AUTO fi 5= CENTS 4367 Bourqua Blvd., Rock Foroat (819) 564-1600 • 1-800-567-4259 page 12 Friday, August 18, 2000 ¦—THE» RECORD Cfntrcf) Birectorp Anglican Church of Canada Presbyterian Church in Canada ST.PETER’S CHURCH 355 Dufferin Street.Sherbrooke (819) 564-0279 Sunday 9:00 a.m.Holy Communion Rev.Patricia Peacock Anglican Church of Canada ST.GEORGE S CHURCH LENNOXVILLE 84 Queen St.819-346-5564 Rector: Rev.Keith Dickerson Sunday 8:00 & 9:50 a.m.Holy Communion ST.ANDREWS PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH Sherbrooke (819) 569-3100 P.O.Box 2, Lennoxville, Qc J1M 1Z3 Minister: Rev.Blake Walker Organist: Anthony Davidson Sunday 10:00 a.m.Video Series - “Dust to Glory” 11:30 a.m.Morning Worship Services held at SI.George’s Anglican Church, Lennoxville /4 wiy iwutial mUmhc to ail!

support today that you need from others to effectively implement a present plan of action.Move on it with vigor.SCORPIO (Oct.24-Nov.22) Through the good graces of another you may get an opportunity today to make some extra money that could really come in handy.This might be work related.SAGITTARIUS (Nov.23-Dec.21) Look for not only a fun day with friends today involving an activity that might be more physical than mental, but for something very lucky to come out of the encounter.CAPRICORN (Dec.22-Jan.19) A valuable lesson in optimism might be learned today when something about which you finally quit worrying takes a turn for the better.You'll learn that fretting never makes things happen.AQUARIUS (Jan.20-Feb.19) Good times could be had today through getting out and mingling with others, be they work- or social-related.There’s a chance you could make a new friend in the process.PISCES (Feb.20-March 20) Operate along lines of least resistance, and major achievements of a material nature are possible today.This is one of those days in which you need to let life happen to you.ARIES (March 21-April 19) The chances for success in your major involvements are already excellent today.However, the more methodical and diligent you become, the more likely Lady Luck will lend some help, as well.TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Capitalize on what you already have at hand, instead of placing all your hopes on a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow.There is plenty of bounty within your reach if you’re resourceful.GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Temporarily set aside any personal concerns that can wait, and concentrate today on those things that will provide the greatest good for the greatest number.The rewards will be tremendous.CANCER (June 21-July 22) Career-oriented matters could provide you with the greatest array of opportunities today.They’re exceptionally promising for you, so long as you’re not looking for a free ride.SATURDAY, Aug.19,2000 Because you’ll be able to disengage yourself in the year ahead from any relationships that have proven to be unproductive, they’ll be able to be replaced by pals with sound objectives.LEO (July 23-Aug.22) By linking up two divergent friends who you know can share knowledge with each other for a common purpose, you end up helping yourself in the process.VIRGO (Aug.23-Sept.22) It’ll be through your mental prowess that you’ll achieve your greatest gratification today.You’ll be able to do with your head some things others lack the courage to attempt.LIBRA (Sept.23-Oct.23) A relationship could be rekindled today when you encounter someone by chance with whom you haven’t seen for quite a spell.It’ll prove to be very fortunate.SCORPIO (Oct.24-Nov.22) This is a good day to discuss any projects or changes around the house that you’ve been wanting to make with those who have the know-how to help you do the job.SAGITTARIUS (Nov.23-Dec.21) Because of your restlessness today, you’re not likely to be at ease unless you have some form of social activity in which to participate.Organize something with your pals.CAPRICORN (Dec.22-Jan.19) Your financial trends continue to be strong again today, so give priority to those types of situations that could spell monetary gain.AQUARIUS (Jan.20-Feb.19) Without being aggressive or condescending, find ways to take measures to implement your ideas over those of others.You’re the one who is likely to have the best plans.PISCES (Feb.20-March 20) Take care not to close any doors today that could reveal some financial opportunities for you.Chance could play an important role in expanding your bank account.ARIES (March 21-April 19) The cycle of the last couple of days continues to be a good one for you for furthering your objectives through your social contacts.Mingle with those who can help.TAURUS (April 20-May 20) What goes around comes around, and today could well be your turn to be compensated for a good deed you recently did without any thought of personal gain.GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You are now quite attuned to making expansive plans that could have a positive impact on your future.Don’t be afraid to think on a grand scale today.CANCER (June 21-July 22) Quite frequently, others look to you for guidance in their affairs.Once again, your resourcefulness today could help them conceptualize alternatives they’d never conceive of unaided.SUNDAY, Aug.20, 2000 The course you’ve been steering is the right one, so don’t allow yourself to get thrown out of the channel in the year ahead.A setback could occur and delay your rewards.LEO (July 23-Aug.22) Pressure from outside forces could cause you today to be unduly influenced by someone who isn’t equipped to give you proper information or advice.Assert your independent nature.Leo, treat yourself to a birthday gift.VIRGO (Aug.23-Sept.22) Patience and tolerance might be called for today should you encounter working with someone who doesn’t grasp the essence of ideas too readily.It won’t hurt you to repeat instructions.LIBRA (Sept.23-Oct.23) Financial factors are tenuous at best today, so even if you believe something to be a calculated risk, the scales could tilt against you.Follow traditional procedures.SCORPIO (Oct.24-Nov.22) A good way to get an argument going today is to independently make a major domestic decision without discussing it first with your mate — especially if things should go wrong.SAGITTARIUS (Nov.23-Dec.21) Owing to your mind wondering off elsewhere today, your work habits may not be up to par.Unless you stay focused, you could make a mistake that may put your job in jeopardy.CAPRICORN (Dec.22-Jan.19) Regrets are in store for you if you're indifferent about money matters today.You could either make a foolish purchase or let something profitable slip through your fingers.AQUARIUS (Jan.20-Feb.19) It won’t be the fact that you’re not a good promoter today that you fail — you are.The reason you’re likely to fall short of your sale is that you won’t know how to stop selling and close the deal.PISCES (Feb.20-March 20) Being a trifle gabbier than usual today may cause you to blurt out something that is meant to be kept confidential.Guard your thoughts and what you say.ARIES (March 21-April 19) I wouldn’t go shopping today if I were you, because chance are you’re going to be attracted to all kinds of strange gadgets and weird merchandise that will end up in the trash bin.TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Although it’s your nature to stick to your guns until you’ve achieved your objectives, today, uncharacteristically, you may drop out before reaching your goals.Get back on track.GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Any problems you run into are likely to be of your own making, owing to a tendency to be erratic or impulsive today.Keep a cool head and think before you leap.CANCER (June 21-July 22) Don’t let whims for instant gratification put you in the red today.If you haven’t tidied up your old bills, do not assume any new financial obligations.1675 R prr>R n Friday, August 18, 2000 page 13 Births In Memoriam Deaths, Deaths BATES - Jeffrey and Tabitha (Harvey) Bates are proud to announce the birth of their son,

Ann Landers: I was divorced when my two sons were youngsters.I raised them, put them through college, gave them down payments on their homes, and helped them buy furniture and cars.They are now in their mid-20s.My older son is getting married soon to a lovely girl from a well-established family.I was kept informed of the wedding plans, and everything seemed to be going smoothly.While visiting them a few months ago, we had a misunderstanding, which resulted in a heated argument.My son told me to pack my suitcase and get out.I was heartbroken, but figured things would work out.Meanwhile, his father, with whom he had been estranged for 10 years, agreed to pay for the rehearsal dinner, plus an extravagant honeymoon cruise.My ex-husband and I do not get along.My son is concerned that there might be a scene at his wedding, so he has asked me not to attend.He wrote me a letter and said 1 was “not welcome,” and if I show up, he will have me escorted out.I have begged and pleaded, but he has not changed his mind.I sent my son and his bride a flatware service for 18 in sterling silver as a wedding gift.Since I am no longer an invited guest, I have asked him to return the silver.He informed me that when people cannot attend a wedding, they send a gift instead, and since I am not coming, he is accepting my gift as a substitute.What is proper in this situation, Ann?Should he return the silver?I am so angry and hurt that I cannot think straight.— Unwelcome in San Diego Dear San Diego: Sending a wedding Happy birthday Happy birthday wishes to Jennie Spaulding of the Grape Residence on Friday, August 18 th.Love and best wishes from the staff and residents.Happy birthday Happy Birthday to Brenda Newton of Waterloo.A very happy 35th birthday to a wonderful sister and aunt.With love, Debbie and Allan (Fred and Punk) XXX PBRTICIPacrian^ www.parficipadion.com gift has nothing to do with whether or not a person can attend.It is not a requirement, nor is it a substitute for not being there.As for your son returning the silver, he is under no obligation to do so.I hope by the time this appears in print, some kind relative will have intervened and negotiated a peace settlement between you and your son.Meanwhile, I suggest that you consider getting some professional help for anger management.Dear Aim Landers: My beloved Aunt Vera is dying.She has no children, and I am to be the executor of her small estate.The difficulty is that many of the items she wishes to bequeath are worthless.I am sure my 15-year-old third cousin in Europe has no interest in an old set of fishing tackle.Nor does my aunt’s pen pai want her favorite, well-used apron.Ann, these people are not particularly close, and I cannot imagine they would want some useless memento.If these items had value, the folks might appreciate them, but to send something worn and worthless does not make much sense.My aunt has always been a little out of touch with reality.I have tried to talk her out of some of these bequests, but she is stubborn.It might sound selfish, since the remaining estate will go to me, but I will not get rich from keeping old frying pans and worn-out dresses.I simply see no point in shipping junk to Europe or any other place to people who probably won’t want it.Please tell me what to do.— Her Niece in California Dear Niece: It must be obvious to you that your beloved Aunt Vera is a few sandwiches short of a picnic.Legally, however, you are obligated to send these items to the designated heirs.After Aunt Vera passes on, you can write the relatives and ask if they want the items.If not, they must send you a formal, legal document saying they have authorized you to do as you see fit with these mementos.Frankly, it doesn’t seem worth the trouble.You might as well do as Aunt Vera wishes.At least her friends and relatives will know she thought of them.50th anniversary Roland and Margaret Mongeon, August 19,1950 - August 19, 2000.It is
