are there in your home?
At one drop per second. a dripping hot water tap .can
waste about 175 gallons of hot water each month. The
electricity required to beat that water would keep a
60 -watt bulb burning continuously.
Poor irtsulation'...a faulty heating system.. inefficient
use of appliances...all cause energy Teaks in the home.
This can increase the cost of running a home—and waste
Canada's precious energy resources.
It makes good sense to use electricity and all forms
of energy wisely. And that includes stopping those
energy leaks.

ROCKY RACCOON
Cross-country skiing is -another
winter sport that Rocky Raccoon
has recently looked into. Known
also is ski touring or Nordic
skiing, this method of getting
across all types of snow-covered
terrain on skis, is said to be the
second fastest means of winter
transportation d only to
Hockeyr banquet ansportationn the snowmobile).
in planning
the Minor Hockey banquet will
be,smorgasbord this year. This
was decided upon at the monthly
meeting of the Mothers' Auxili-
ary to the Wingham Minor
Hockey on Feb. 10. A menu has
been planned and hopefully this
style of meal will , expedite
the serving of such a large
number of people. This should
also reduce the number of ladies
required to serve.
Plans and procedures were
also discussed for the operation
of the booth during this year's
Midget Tournament. The tourna-
ment will run March 14-17 and
20-23. Volunteer workers for
these weekends could leave their
names at the booth or call Mrs.
Joy Thompson.
Several companii�es have been
approached but as yet there has
been no satisfactory confirma-
tion received on the hockey crests
and year bars. If there are any
suggestions. for the coming
tournament or banquet, please
attend the next meeting on
Monday, March 10. at 8:30 in the
arena. •

Por more than 5,000 years,
Scandanavian people have used
cross-country skis to travel from
one community to another.
Canadians generally get involved
in cross-country, or XC'skiing, to
stay in shape, enter competition,
or to supply enjoy the experience
that the sport provides in the out-
doors.
Cross-country skiing is
presently one of the fastest grow-
ing sports in Canada. Reasons for
this popularity include the fact
that people of any age can cross-
country ski. The experts claim
that if you can walk, you can
cross-country ski:
Some other advantages are,
that you are not as restricted as
the downhill skier because the
equipment is lighter; you don't
have to wait for a lift to .take you
up the hill; and the enjoyment
long outlasts the few seconds it
takes the down hill skier to finish
his run. •
It is estimated that a downhill
skier would get only 90 minutes of
actual skiing time if her were pn
the ski slope for six hours a day.
When you compare this to the
freedom and the quiet of spend-
ing an afternoon enjoying the
winter scenery at your leisure on
cross-country skis, it's easy to
see why the cross-country
method is in great demand.
You can read instruction books,
or take lessons from a trained
instructor to learn how to use
your skis properly and get full
enjoyment from them. However,
some people will read the next
Rocky Raccoon article to learn
more about this exciting winter
sport.
