WIN, NUMBER 2 The WIN Coupon Book campaign, now counting down to the annual Walkerton Fall Festival, is in need of some additional support. This year’s WIN Coupon Book, much larger than last year’s with over 150 coupons for savings of dollars in a wide variety of products and services, and including some 37 drawings, are still available at the many businesses in Walkerton and Koontz Lake before the many drawings are held on Saturday, October 11. Many coupons extend for some time after the drawings, but certainly the many drawings for a wide variety of free gifts from a ham to a trip for two to Hawaii, is one of the big drawing cards. The WIN Coupon Book campaign, in its second year, has profits earmarked for downtown improvement in Walkerton. There was some disappointment among some this past year when, once the campaign was over, no startling big changes were made, only some cosmetic changes that the critics didn’t feel were satisfactory. However, the end result is not something that will happen overnight. In order to make noticeable improvements in this area, much more money is needed than the $12,000 or so profit from the project last year. And this has been the goal of the WIN Finance Committee, to get the planning started and study just what needs to be done and how it can be accomplished. This is a big project, and working along with the Walkerton Chamber of Commerce through other programs, it is still anticipated this will happen in the not too distant future. It is a big job and a time consuming job that just isn’t going to happen overnight. Each and everyone can help in their own little way with this project while helping themselves. The WIN Coupon Books this year are selling for SIO.OO. They have many times that value in coupons . . . certainly not all the coupons will be used by any one person or family, but overall, there are plenty of savings to be had to make the book well worth the price. And add to this the fact that the 37 or so drawings are included ... it is a good value for everyone. These last 16 days before the free drawings on Saturday, October 11, will be your last opportunity to take advantage of all the drawings to be given. Most of the coupons will continue on, but you can help yourself and help the project in these next two weeks by purchasing a WIN Coupon Book and using the many coupons that are available. ^^EMEMBE^^T

You have heard of folks losing their hats, their false teeth, their glasses and sometimes their heads, but Fred Shultz, of Walkerton, almost lost his trousers. Perhaps it wasn't as bad as it sounds, but if Fritz had lost them, it would have been just too bad for him. Mr. Shultz was aweakened early Sunday morning by a noise in his bedroom, caused by the dropping of a heavy bunch of keys and some money from his trousers. Investigation revealed the fact that a robber was at the window, operating a clothes line pole with a wire hook

High-Fiber Dining—Do Your Heart Good

Oatmeal, the hot breakfast cereal recommended by generations of mothers, can be good for your heart, too. The results of a research study conducted by Northwestern University Medical School, and published in the June issue of the Journal of the American Dietetic Association, indicate that oatmeal can help reduce blood cholesterol. one of the main risk factors of heart disease. "Clinical trials indicate that for each one percent reduction in blood cholesterol levels, there is a one to two percent reduction in the risk of heart attacks," says Jeremiah Stamler, M.D., chairman of the school’s Department of Community Health and Preventive Medicine. “This study shows that people can benefit by adding oatmeal to a diet that follows the recommendations of the American Heart Association (AHA).’’ According to the AHA. more than 600,000 deaths are caused by heart disease each year, while one million more Americans experience a nonfatal heart attack. Heart disease continues to be the number one cause of death and disability in this country. "Using diet rather than drugs to lower cholesterol conforms to the recommendations for the general population made by the National Institutes of Health, and offers Americans a safe and easy way to reduce the risk of heart attacks — an approach that people can follow all their lives," says Linda Van Hom, Ph.D., R.D., principal investigator for the study. Putting oats on the breakfast menu is a natural, but oats can fiber-fortify lunch, dinner and snacks, too. Pizza, for example, is even better when made with an oat flour crust and fresh vegetable topping. Fish fillets stuffed with a vegetable-oat pilaf make a
