This room is only for the dar- ing and brave. There is everything from: pickled snakes to live snakes. To name a few of the animals in this room there are chickens, crayfish, rats and of course Percy, the parrot. The room is really a teaching experience to everyone. The room had visits by the Grade 1 and kindergarten. We asked two kindergarten pupils how they liked the room. Their names were Trevor Mathers and Audrey Parr. They stated they both liked the baby chicks and thought the parrot was neat. The two children from Grade 1 said they liked the baby rats and the chicks. There are also stuffed birds on the wall and two aquaria. The most dangerous beast of all sits in Big fines LUCK NOW - Lucknow Council passed a property standards bylaw meeting which permits council to fine a property owner who refuses to clean up his property as requested.

Our northern latitude and daylight .savings time at (east compensate a little by giving long days in an other- wise painfully short sum- mer. Most golf courses in Canada take advantage of the sununer and stay open dawn 'td dark seven days a week. Today there are thousands of golf courses in Canada of- fering everything from ex- pensive exclusivity to the economical basics of the game. There are organized programs for men, women, junior boys and girls, as well as the increasing number of senior golfers There are serious cnmpctitions for golfers in every range of ability along with plenty of "just for fun" events design- ed to get the whole family in- volved.

It was a fund-raising campaign for their trip in May. There were many delicious goodies, such as cupcakes, squares, popcorn, cookies and chocolates. The sale was open to all the students at school and most of them in- dulged in a little treat or so. By the look of some of the students' faces, I got the im- pression that the treats were good! At the end of the sale, the profits were totalled. With the number of desserts sold I would say the sale was a big success. Thanks to all the parents and kids who helped support us! by Vicki Peck Legion Auxiliary women from 12 clubs in the district met in Clinton on Sunday for the area convention. The afternoon began with a wreath laying service at the cenopath. After an afternoon meeting, supper was served at the Clinton Legion.
