31-year-old men trapped in the vehicle.The third victim was thrown clear of the wreck after the car rolled over into a ditch.According to statements given to local Sûreté du Québec officers, the driver caught the road shoulder while meeting on-coming traffic, tried unsuccessfully to regain control, and bounced across the road into the opposite ditch.See POLICE page 5 Tandem with a difference

the lam.By the time guests began arriving, power had been restored and the beef rounded up.It was another good year at the gate with 2,500 paid entries and a total estimated attendance of 3,500.Judges were overwhelmed with the exceptional quality of all exhibits.Many visitors, exhibitors, judges, entertainers, caterers and staff came dressed for the theme, an Old-fashioned Fair, which was officially opened by president Jim Blair, vice-president Norris Sample, MNA André Chenail and Havelock mayor Jeannine Giroux-Lavallée.New this year was a pig round-up for The Great Pumpkin arrived

Howick pegged the big-bale weight exactly at 560 Ibs.In the \"Name the new goat\u201d competition, Tavish Brennan of Ormstown suggested Fairlady for the three-day-old Pygmy exhibited by Danielle Agnew

notices warning that their jobs could disappear if no agreement on the make-up of the board could be reached before September 10.The CLD tweaked its original counteroffer to add one more board

in the hands of skilled farmers who lovingly shine up their cherished old tractors each year.This year's event will be found at 1297 Fourth Concession, Elgin, where the action will begin at 10 a.m.Visitors from both sides of the border are warmly invited to come along and enjoy the day with CVAA members.(DF) AT HAVELOCK FAIR \u2014 the Franklin Women's Institute had a successful day at

Club members who did well included Howick's Allan McKell and Danny McKell of Kellcrest Farms.Though the McKells only exhibited six animals, each one placed near the top of its class, enabling Kellcrest to win both the banners for Junior Best Exhibitor and Junior Best Breeder.For the second year, the Herdsman's Award for overall presentation and display was won on the combined efforts of

Nations as offering the world\u2019s top-quality living, to more or less divorce ourselves from the woes of other nations.As far as possible, anyway.For instance, the drop in the Canadian dollar over recent months has prompted many of us simply to modify our cross-border shopping policy as we wait for our loonie to regain some of its worth.And as far as the conduct of high officials in other lands, we can also be a bit smug.Many of our leaders could be accused of being dull, but on the other hand, it's almost impossible to picture them engaged in such lurid acts as those in the headlines south of the border.But now the Asian financial crisis seems to have manifested itself too close for comfort.Just as we were goi to press this week, we herd that the Valleyfield flax-processing plant, inaugurated with such high hopes just months ago, has closed its doors.And its owners are nowhere to be found, leaving some Valley farmers with flax plants ripening in the fields but no destination for the crop.While no official statement has been issued, it seems reasonable that the Hong Kong owners of the plant are among those hit hard by the Asian crisis.It slows us down a bit in our tendency to make too many \u201cus\u201d and \u201cthem\u201d assumptions.gn FROM GLEANER ARCHIVES .120 years ago September 12, 1878 HEMMINGFORD NOTES The young man Cusson, who was stabbed by Dugquette, is now

improvement.The health of the town is exceptionally good, making dull times for the doctors as well as others.On Saturday night, the village was thrown into considerable commotion, by the report that F.S.Proper, Customs Officer, bad fallen off the train, coming from Mooer's Junction.\u2026 A search was made all the way along the track with no result, and another and more exbaus- tive one was

it is far more economical when it concerns a large family.\u2026 The way it stands now it is nothing but a fashion parade.Each girl trying to oudo the others.It is at the point where girls would just as soon stay bome than wear the same outfit two or three days a week.CVR is a very modern and up to date school It is too bad that this problem exists.It is hoped the administration will see the

see women everywhere calling for end to sexual aggression Can you relate to the suffering of a woman who feels like a piece of meat on sale to the highest bidder?Do you really know how a little girl feels when her own uncle has abused her?Or identify with the anger of a man whose wife has been raped?Or even the reaction of someone who hears his friends talk about his girlfriend in terms of high-quality merchandise?What about the children of a battered mother?Or the victims of any kind of suffering which violence brings?Yes, you may well know this pain \u2014 you yourself may not have been spared this kind of suffering.It lives in your guts and every now and then you teel a silent pang.But to put it into words, to object out loud to the verbal put-down, or the leer that leaves you feeling as if you had been undressed, or a coarse gesture by one of your friends \u2014 that\u2019s something else again.To do that would be to show yourself in an unexpected light, to display what some might consider weakness in a society which values strength and toughness above all things.So you keep quiet, and slowly but surely you begin to lose your sense of values and your personal integrity.On this Friday, Sept.18, the annual Day for Action against Violence to Women, women of all ages from all nations and all segments of society will be standing up to be counted, once again claiming their basic rights to safety and to freedom.In our own region, the women who volunteer at La Vigie, a centre offering help and working to prevent sexual aggression, will be spending the day

Franklin vote against revamping intersection Franklin is refusing to invest $200,000 on highway safety.It's incomprehensible.A request made by the Municipality of Franklin in June 1995, asking the Transport ministry to improve the intersection of Rtes.202 and 209, was rejected by the same municipality at its September 8 meeting.Ironically, it was rejected by the same council members who previously asked foi it.Plans and explanations from Transport ministry engineers failed to convince these councillors of the need to make this dangerous intersection safe.(It has been the location of some 10 accidents between 1990 and 1994, a fact which they seem to have forgotten.) Engineer Jacques Verville wrote to the mayor to emphasize that the ministry's plan would result in a clearer choice of lanes and smoother traffic flow, while lessening the risk of accidents.Its hard to understand why a municipality would refuse a project which would improve residents\u2019 safety.Maybe municipal councillors are more competent than the MOT engineers?And when one councillor justifies his position by saying there are several other dangerous intersections in the municipality .that doesn't seem to be much of an argument.Did someone simply want to save a piece of land belonging to a friend at the risk of public safety?A municipal council\u2019s decisions should benefit the majority of citizens; anything else smacks of partisanship.Who will be held responsible for future accidents at this intersection?Certainly not the Transport ministry, which has done its duty on this issue.The problem won't be fixed and trucks or school busses travelling east on Rte.202 and wanting to turn onto Rte.209 east must cross oncoming traffic twice.This situation needs to be corrected for the safety of our children, but sadly it won't be.These councillors will have to be answerable if and when another accident occurs at this intersection.It seems that the custom at Franklin is to act only after disasters \u2014 prevention doesn't bring in the votes! I am a municipal councillor who is not always proud to be one.Georges Daigle Franklin (tr]) ed te ) Ca) « - EST A Break-ins A VCR, two phones and around 100 CDs were stolen from a Hemlock Dr.residence

crafting elaborate and artistic houses and feeders for bird-lovers.The commercial artist who moved into the Valley 25 years ago and set up shop in an old barn on Rte.202, still designs and paints commercial signs.The birdhouse business is an add-on, he explains.Harrison says he truly enjoys birds, likes decorating objects, knows how to use power tools, can paint, and has a workshop and an established business.The local apple orchards attract a lot of people to the Chateauguay Valley, and Visitors were always stopping by to look around in his art studio.\u201cIt just seemed logical to develop a sideline to fit in with what I already know and what the area offers: country living,\"he explained.Harrison\u2019s best selling birdhouse design is a Québécois cabane à sucre, while a towering, multi-silo cathedral feeder priced at $90 is the best-selling feeder model.Produce, crafts, livestock displayed at Howick 4-H The annual Howick 4-H Achievement Day took place on August 18 at Terrace Bank Farms.Club members brought in their vegetables and handicrafts, which were put on display while the Calf Club members washed and prepared their calves for the afternoon show.Brent and Janet Tolhurst brought their sheep to judge, and did a min-judging clinic to help junior members.A class of Ayrshire cows was judged, followed by the sheep, and a mystery object class.Judge Randy Frennier explained the placing for the cow class and Gordon Beaulieu commented on the sheep class.In the garden section, judge Jack Peddie explained his placings, remarking on the abundance of good-quality vegetables, which made decisions difficult.Grace Waller judged baking, handicrafts and the special section of marshmallow and vegetable creatures, sponsored by Thelma Lang.Lunch was provided by the Women's Institute and then the afternoon program started with Judge Randy Frennier picking the winners as follows: Winners Junior Showmanship: Marcie Tolhurst.Intermediate Showmanship:

Omitted from September 2 Gleaner was the report of the Presbyterian Ladies\u2019 Group (not Ladies\u2019 aid) meeting.Ruth Towns was in charge of the program and she invited Doreen Gruer to come and tell of her interest in birding.She gave a most informative talk and answered a number of questions.Church group St.Paul's U.C.W.met at MacDougall Hall on September 9.Chairperson Eleanor Lissemore opened the meeting with a poem.PE EEE 0 Ga rl KE 6 houses created with love and humor His models appeal to both human and feathered tastes.People appreciate bits of humor injected into the design, such as fire-station birdhouses with the chiefs house outside and a ladder running up the roof to the la biére supply stored in a chimney.Birds view the raffia bows as perfect nesting material.Harrison insists his units be more than pretty to look at; they must be functional, reusable nesting boxes, be they for birds, bats or butterflies.He even assembled an original-design \u201cFranklin Feeder\u201d for young children who want to hand-feed chickadees.And the windmills on feeders actually turn.He tries to build one unit a day, and keeps about 75 models in stock, each one different from the last, hanging above bags of bird-feed.Each feeder leaves with a small bag of seed.January's ice storm left behind a ton of twigs, branches, cones and vines which Harrison gratefully gathers.Even the 12- foot high hollow tree-trunk \u201cbird-house\u201d beside his driveway was a windfall on a neighbor's property.Harrison brought it home, trimmed the top into a \u201cVv\u201d, roofed it, cut out a hole and installed a door.It could a home for a really big bird, and it is a novel way to illustrate his business.Brent Harrison beside his innovative tree-trunk

Centre in Ormstown has reopened for another session with a new principal overseeing one academic and six professional programs.Chateauguay's Rhonda Ross has succeeded lain Millar, who was transferred to Chateauguay's Howard S.Billing Career Centre, co-incidentally the centre Ross left as program coordinator to come to this end of the Valley.Each one\u2019s specific knowledge of the other's new domain means they'll be working cooperatively to best direct their clients into any one of a dozen training programs offered at the two centres.Getting people ready for work force \u2014 making people employable, is Ross's mission.\u201cIt's important to get our youth out there, skilled and ready.\u201d New dairy course Barely settled into the Valley rhythm, Ross is already hard at work recruiting students for a new accredited program, Dairy Production, slated to start October 5.Working in partnership with the Quebec Farmers\u2019 Union (UPA) and its representative Neil McKay of the Chateauguay Valley Syndicate, the Ormstown Centre will offer a hands-on 1,245 hour course, in the classroom and on model farms, for anyone interested in this agricultural domain.The course should be of particular interest to prospective farmers (16 years and older), as graduates will receive a Diplôme d'études (DEC) from Quebec's Education Ministry which may qualify them for a $10,000 start-up grant, Ross explained.A local program means people remaining at home and training to take over the farm.\u201cOnce we have a total of 15 students, the course will fly,\u201d Ross said.Farmers or their employees may also enrol for individual modules and receive short-term training in specific areas, such as animal genetics, pesticide use, farm accounting, and such.Other professional programs offered at Ormstown are Landscaping, Home Health Care, Carpentry, Business Technologies and Accounting.Training and upgrading People already working, and companies looking to upgrade their systems, may turn to the Career Centre for support.Partnerships with businesses means offering tailor-made courses to groups of employees, Ross said.For example, if financial institutions want a package course teaching personnel how to run computerized banking systems, the Centre could organize the course and employees would go there and receive training.Another way would be to send a trainer to a company and instruct employees there.Or a business could send employees to the centre for training and upgrading in language and communication skills, drafting, basic word processing, etc., offered as modules in many of the full-time programs.\u201cWe're putting our energies into helping businesses to acquire and to retrain employees able to compete in this tech- nology-oriented world,\u201d Ross said.9.% Na
