Wednesday, December 11, 1991 i'he Gazette Page 5 . Servicing development: TransAlta Utilities was busy last week, installing street lighting in the new subdivision surrounding the middle school now under construction. correction An incomplete paraphrase of a statement made by Alberta Agricultural Development Corporation president, Bob Splane appeared in the November 27 issue of the Olds Gazette (picture tough, not hopeless). The paraphrase read Splane noted that with falling interest rates, fanners will be paying less to service their debts, and encouraged them to take advantage of that by putting it back on. The sentence should have been completed with, . . encouraged them to take advantage of that by putting it back on the principle. We apologize for any confusion this might have caused. mtftam. Olds gives at Kiwanis many miscellaneous items including toys, clothing and poinset- tias. action Olds gave and gave and gave, at the Kiwanis annual auction Wednesday, giving the service club one of the best auctions it has ever had, auction director, Lynn Lamb said. After all the bidding was complete at the Olds Auction Mart, 5,700 was raised, and Lamb could not say enough about the' generosity of biddfers and contributors to the annual event. The spirit of giving in Olds is just fantastic Lamb said. He added that there was only a 10 per cent turndown rate, of all businesses approached for contributions of items to be auctioned. As well. Lamb noted that several private individuals approached the Kiwanis with personal donations, from baking to offering gardening services, which were more than welcome. That just adds to it all, he said. He said two surprise prizes donated by Leatherdale Publishing and auctioned off at the beginning, helped to lighten spirits and set the tone and pace of bidding, which the Rosehill auctioneers were able to pick up and carry away. The first was a 50 bill, concealed in a gift- wrapped box, that sold for 60. The second was a 20 bill and a Santa Claus replica concealed in the same way, and sold for 100. It worked really well, Lamb said. It kind of lightened things up and everyone got a big laugh out of it, he added. Lamb said top price CHRISTMAS FIRE SAFETY TIPS Fire safety with fireplaces Don't let the warm glow of your fireplace hill you into a false sense of security this holiday season. * ** Burn small amounts of wood at frequent intervals. ar- Have chimneys checked and cleaned at least once a year. a-.

Io succeed in today's world, Canadians must be able to compete because our jobs directly depend upon it. Our competitive edge will secure the prosperity we want for ourselves and our children. Prosperity that's measured not only by productivity but by better jobs, greater opportunities for young Canadians, support for health, social and senior citizen programs - and more. We can achieve it by investing in our own abilities and being a country that says... yes we can. Yesxvecan. Yfe've got the proof. A look at some of Canada's success stories proves it can be done... with real benefits for individuals, the communities they live in and for Canadian industry. Hundreds of Canadian companies are achieving remarkable international success. They're creating jobs, developing new skills and opportunities for thousands of Canadians and creating markets around the world for Canadian products. Yesxvecan. We've got the ability to build on our successes. We have a history of working in co-operation with others for world class achievements in peacekeeping, medicine and space exploration. Now, with business, labour, governments, academic and social groups working together, we can achieve prosperity through international competitiveness. But there is one more critical factor: Canada's ultimate potential depends on the com-' mitment of individual Canadians. Yesxvecan. We've got the people. It's time now to unite around our greatest economic challenge yet... preparing for a prosperous future. As individuals, there's a lot we can -do. Put yourself in the picture through further education or skills development programs. As parents, we can encourage our children to stay in school longer and start career planning activities sooner. As employers, we can think of training as a business investment and encourage a work environment where excellence and a commitment to learning are celebrated. Finally, as Canadians, we can become a positive partpj; the process through involvement in the consultations on our economic future.

This musical instrument manufacturer holds 30 of the world market for cymbals ana sells in 80 countries including Japan. Winnipeg, Manitoba With exports accounting for 50 of sales and job creation up 82 over three years, it's hardly surprising that New Flyer Industries Limited of Winnipeg received a 7991 Canada Export Award.
