Once upon a time there were, three fishermen from.
Lucknow who decided to 'go to Algonquin Park for the week-
end and sleep in the Esso home heat truck. Leaving their
, '• food to cool in a large cooler, they went fast asleep 'only'
to be awakened in the middle of the night by .a _ noise outside
the truck.
Who s . after .ourfood" snapped Buster as he jumpe_,
from the truck to be reeted byPa a• -Bear onlya few

him exclaim "this is just right" as he ripped the lid off
the large cooler. and pulled out the ,"porridge."'e..... -- .

Withy look. over his. shoulder;:. Papa beartook off

Report ` On Twin Pines
Harvey Webster, secretary, read
at, letter from Art Haas of Twin'.
Pines* Apartments Ltd. ` He con-
firmed the fact that a_ represent-
, ative of Central Mortgage and'
Housing Corporation had approv-
ed two possible sites' for a.Senior
-Citizens- Apartment.
The required equity' of 5% from
the sponsoring. -body, less • the al-
lowance on the site, would require
a . budget of between $2,500 and
$3,000 by the sponsoring bedy it
was estimated. ti
• If the project were to proceed
on this basis, a survey of need
would have to be 'completed and
a /tax - agreement. made with
-Council, on the basis of $25.00 per
suite per year.
Approval and completion of
these .factors `.would clear. the way
for calling tenders . this • summer.
