Sanscha is worth the
tax dollars .

oR Wenzel, in‘a June 14

letter to the Review, thanks °

Mr. & Mrs. Charlie White
for.their contribution to the
Memorial Park Society, “os
tensibly to fund their‘New

Sanscha Hall, and theatre .

project.”

~The Oxford Dictionary’ s
definition of the word “os-
tensible” is: pretended, pro-
fessed, put forward to conceal

what is real.

The construction of the
sentence is such that it ap-
pears to be offering thanks
but at the same time sug-
gesting an ulterior reason
for the donation. In disbelief

_Ire-read the sentence many

times and concluded. that
the disparagement . could
only be directed at the
Memorial Park Society and
the Foundation that has
been installed to raise funds
for the Sanscha Hall renova-

_ The annual operating _
costs, which are not to be
more. than $55,000, will
amount to $10 (or less) per
year. per property. owner,
should the Sanscha Com-
munity. & Cultural Centre

~ Man cannot live by bread
alone — so I will be voting
‘Yes’ in the referendum. For
avery small sum of money
indeed, Sidney and North
Saanich residents will have
a wonderful chance to blend
their community spirits by
participating proudly in: a
joint venture of mutual ben-
efit:and intrinsic value.

Seize this opportunity
and make it happen!
