McKownville: News And Comment : By LINDSAY CHILDS The McKownville Improvement Association's \Meet The Candi- dates\ night has been scheduled for Thursday, Oct. 27 fit 8 p.m at the Tom Sawyer Motor Inn. In previous years, virtually all the candidates for town offices have been on hand to discuss the issues and answer questions and the evening has been very informa- tive. This year's should be just as worthwhile. Keep the date-open and come on out. The association is also planning a paper drive in October. You can recycle your newspapers, and the' Association can raise a little money to help support activities such as the \Meet the Candidates\ night.
