One enterprising bUsinessman
floated into Dawson City during
the gold rush of 1,09.8 with a cow
and achieved his ambitions to be
-the first man to sell fresh milk in
the ICIondike. He charged $30 a
'gallon and was—immediately
nicknamed "Cow" Miller.
By the way: A pedestrian may
often be wrong, but he -doesn't de-

KATHRYN OKE
in Folksong Club
Ski Club
By Gail Grant.
Jane Metzke
If you were at the school
around. 9:30 Saturday morning.
you would be sure to see lots of
•cars in the parking lot. If you
were wondering why, well it was
the pki club getting ready to go on
a ski expedition. Leaving around
ten o'clock, we drove out to the
"Alps" on the 4th of etilrosa;
three miles south-west of •Tees -
water. If you haven't been there I
must say you sure are missing
something, especially if you pre a
lover amain*. It is jug beautiful
with its forest, and rolling hills.
Since everybody forgot their
lunth, Mr. Lobb supplied every-
body with a chocolate bar. I guess
he thought we would need lots of
enermi! There were 16 in attend-
ance which was quite ,good, Once
it was a cold, brisk Morning. We
skied about four miles on a trail
and through open fences. After
everybody had their share of
trips, falls and climbing over
fences, we left for home feeling
the, trip was well worthwhile.

on February 15, where, we filled ,
the days in March with fun. Some
examples are coffee house,
dance, and a surprise! We are
also going to have a chocolate bar
drive this year. We decided to
have one so the grade nines have
an idea of what this is all about.
There will also be prizes given for
the highest seller, etc.
So don't groan, in every job
that must be 'done there is an
element of fun!
Think up reasons why YOU
SHOULD buy a 71/2 oz. chocolate
bar and BUY ONE!

schools, Ben Miltenburg was the
winner in the impromptu section.
Debbie Townsend competed in
the prepared section. Ben then
went to Glencoe for the south-
western Ontario zone finals

chosen as winner. Ben says that
the use of the lecturn was con-
sidered by the judges as a 'need
for security' and was counted
against the contestants. He also
mentioned that the contestants
had to show talent as actors in
order to impress the judges.
