Pupils find lots of junk along old trail
On April 22/98 the. grade
2/3 class from Walton Public
School collected garbage for
an Earth Day activity.
We were surprised at what
we found along the road and
on the railroad trail. This is a
list of some of the items that
we discovered - beer bottles,
pop bottles, Christmas orna-
ments, a Halloween decora-
tion, a coat, t -shirt, bracelet,
pencils, pop cans, glass,
chocolate bar wrappers, bags,
jars, containers, rusty pipes,
headlight, a hike, paper, lids.
barbed wire, Pringles con-
tainers, car parts, a shoe and
some stuff that Mrs. Vivian
wouldn't let us pick up
because we didn't have
gloves on. We feel sorry for
the animals who sometimes
die because of all this
garbage. We wish people
would stop littering and

Since it was Earth Day the
Kindergarten class took a
look at lady bugs. Derick
Bachert, Christopher Becker
and Brandon McGavin all
brought in jars of lady hugs.
Brandon had done some
research on his computer and
shared that information with
the rest of the class. The kids
observed the hugs and drew
pictures in their journals.
Wendy Bachert and daughter
Haley, brought in cupcakes to
help celebrate Derick's birth-
day.
The grade 1/2 are learning
about taking care of planet
earth. They are studying the
`Special couple celebrate 40th
food chain. They have
learned that plants use the
soil for food. Then animals
eat plants and other animals.
They made a food chain with
pictures cut out of magazines.
For Earth Day they helped
pick up garbage around the
school yard.
The grade 3/4 in their study
of pulleys and gears, went to
McGavins where they were
taken on a tour by brothers
Jeff and Brian McGavin. Neil
McGavin gave tractor rides
to the kids in "Big Blue".
The 3/4 class also picked
up garbage around the school
for Earth Day.
Cassie Bressette took home
the well travelled bunnies,
Coke and Pepsi.

How to pick,

4- H CLUB REPORT
By Louise McBride
The Clinforth Dairy Club
held its meeting at the,
Gutsenpurgers.
Thomas led us in the 4-11
pledge and roll call and
Barbie read the minutes.
Next Lorraine introduced
our guest speaker Ron
Westgate who discussed how
to pick a good hull for certain
cows.
Next we split into groups
and we discussed how to pick
a good 4-H calf. We moved
to the house for pop and
treats while the new members
signed the registration forms.
After. we received informa-
tion pages and registration
forms for our calfs and Hays
Classic.
Safety Seekers opened by
uttering the pledge and roll
calf. Next Anita read the min-
utes from the last meeting.

aid and watched a farm safety
video. Soon, they were pick-

first aid kit and the meeting
closed with treats from
Tineka.
League folds
Goderich's industrial fast -
ball league has folded after
29 seasons. The league's
recent draft day had too few
players. particularly pitchers,
to staff enough teams.
Instead, Godcrich now plans
to field three teams in the
Huron League.
Heart disease
CONTINUE= from Page 9.
However, if a person stops
smoking, within two years
there risk returns to normal.
The scary thing. said Dr.
Percival, is that now more
women than men smoke and
the people that have the high-
est rate of starting to smoke are
teenaged girls.
Obesity is also a risk factor.
especially people with big
waists and narrow hips. This
can be controlled by eating
low fat, high fibre foods.
If a woman has diabetes, she
should try to keep it under
control to decrease her risk of
heart disease, said Dr.
Percival.

THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Poverty is catching - you
can get it from Internal
Revenue'
Duck race this weekend
The first week in May in
1945 was very important in
history. The 25th German
Army surrendered on May
5th and V.E. Day (Victory
Day) was May 8th. May 5th
each year is. also the day of
the Battle of the Atlantic
annual ceremony. That ,we
can live in freedom in this
wonderful country we owe to
the thousands of young
Canadian men and women
and our allies who fought and
those who gave their lives for
this freedom.
There are still a few tickets
left for the Duck Race.
Donations for the Yard and
Bake Sale would be grateful-
ly appreciated. For more
