Anne Murray split us into three goups and we did some catching up on our 4-1-1 book. Then we played a game that was kind of like win, lose or draw but you picket a type of fruit or vegetable and drew that. Next we went to the kitchen to cut cake and set one piece on each napkin. Then out leaders told us to work on our skits, plays, or songs. At the end of the meeting everyone enjoyed the cake and raspberry punch. U.I. to finish one billion in the black Even before the federal government made changes to the unemployment insurance program last Friday, it expected its unemployment insurance fund would finish this year about $i -billion in the black, after being awash in red ink by alrnost S6 -billion three years ago. Statistics Canada reported earlier last week that for the first nine months of this year UI payments fell to a five-year low of $10.7 -billion, 15 per cent less than a year ago. There was a 16.2 per cent drop in, the average number of beneficiaries. A record low proportion of unemployed Canadians are now getting benefits, only 37 per cent in September, compared to 66 per cent in 1990 and 75 per cent before the onset of the recession that year. Columban 4-14 Tutti Fruitti's held their fifth meeting. Our Achievement Night will be held on Dec. 6 in the St. Columban Church basement at 7:30 pm. Tonight we had Rose come in and talk to us about dieting. She told us all about the dangers of not eating properly and what can happen to you when you don't cat. When she left we got into groups to decide what we are going to do for Achcivement Night. Then Anne called us into the kitchen for some crackers and apple butter.
