RR 044 po ut Notes 'Recreation Commpttee report by ANNE TODESCO The Recreation Com- mittee held. a game- night Saturday evening in the community hall. Cribbage and five hun- dred were played. The villagers were not weil represented. It is hoped that the next game-night will be patronized bet- ter.

Rossport Water System by ANNE TODESCO A circular letter has been mailed to all sub- scribers to the Rossport Water System, notify- ing them that continu- ous misuse of the water system could result in the deterioration or per- manent damage of the pumps before their time. This would ultim- ately cost a substantial amount of money and consequently could re- vert back to a yearly water fee. Subscribers have been asked to "please do not run the water un- necessarily." If experi- encing difficulties or problems, they are ad- vised to contact a mem- ber of the Associa- tion. St. John Berchman's Alter Society by ANNE TODESCO Mrs. Laura Legault played host to. the mem- bers of the St: John Berchman's Altar So- ciety last Monday even- ing. Following the open- ing prayers, the minutes of the previous meeting were read and signed, then Mrs. Gail Bain, first vice-president, chaired the meeting. Correspondence was read and filed and a report of cards mailed during the month to shut-ins, and anniver- sary greetings to those who had birthdays or were ill during the month. The financial re- port was heard to date. Mrs. Kenney who is spending the winter in the southern states, sent greetings and a letter to the members. The mem- bers are to bring a homemade valentine to the next meeting for the Valentine mail-box. The home bingo cards were distributed and the members were notified that the public bingo . ; was still to be run off. | Following adjourn- ment and prayers, the hostess served refresh- ments. Wolves at large by ANNE TODESCO When I returned from my Christmas vacation, some of the villagers in- * formed me that the wol- ves had started to come into the village after dark. It is not the first time they have roamed our'streets or investiga- ted the garbage cans. They have even. been ~™ known to eat the dog's food. The animals are hungry for lack of rab- bits, birds or deer in the area. This is one person who does not intend to walk along the streets this winter after dark- ness settles in. Wolves have been know to kill the dogs for a meal. Dogs tied up near their kennels need to be in- doors at night. Easy Valentine dinner to warm your heart Romantics of the world take heart. A deli- cious Valentine dinner for two can be squeezed into even the busiest schedule, with quick-to- fix recipes. You'll be able to relax with your Valentine over a glass of wine while dinner is in the oven. Bicentennial Notes by ANNE TODESCO The Bicentennial Committee of Rossport met Sunday afternoon at Chas.
