Scavenger Hunt
( By DONNA THOMSON
Grade VIII
The party was pretty well
planned. We were going to have
!a seavens•er hunt. It wasn't go-
ing to he an ordinary scavenger
html but it was going to be a
!worthwhile one.
We started by drawing names,
Christopher went with Columbus,
Santa with (Inus, ete.
After we had our list of things
to find we left the house to try
to find them
Each couple had a list as fol-
lows: one gum paper. two pop-
' side sticks, an Oh Henry wrap-
per, etc, (They weren't all the
(same).
The first couple to bring all
'ten things to the trash can in
:front of the drug store would he
the winner. We found that help-
ing, to keep Lucan clean, could
be a very pleasant job.

1 One Saturday night as I was on
my way up town I saw a 'bunch
of country children going up
I town, I saw them go in the store
' and come out each with a choc-
olate bar, bubble gum, and a
lolly pop. They took the papers
i off and threw them on the
ground.
1 went over to them and asked
them it they had seen our new
trash cans,. They said, "No." I
told thent about them. So, as
proper children, they picked all
their papers up and said they
were sorry for not teeing them.
I have seenthese children
many other Saturday nights put-
ting paper in the trash cans. I
guess they learned their lesson.
