Page 2, News, Wednesday, July 13, 1988 Helene shares a Canada Day bit and a small bite By Helene Ballard Well, this has been quite a week, and I hope all our town folks enjoyed all the events. Canada Day bits On Wednesday, June 29, Blanche Speck and I went to the Legion Hall for the second annual Baby Pageant, where Blanche and I along with members of the Terrace Bay Council were judges. Believe me, it was no easy task to try and pick the winners. All those babies were so cute that it was hard to pick one in any category as a winner. This event was sponsored by the town council. The girls from Tot Lots organized this event, and they did a wonderful job. On behalf of the residents of Birchwood Terrace, I would like to thank both the coun- cil and the young ladies for their work, On July 1, the Canada Day Parade was held and we are so proud that our "float" won Ist place. Our Activities Director, Sylvie, and her helper Sheri Moon did a fine job of decorating; thank you girls. While we were having our din- ner on that Friday evening, the Fraser Girls Pipe Band came down to our dining room to play for us. They came from Thunder Bay, and we want to extend our thanks to the band members. Some of our residents went to the Beer Garden at the golf course; I guess they all enjoyed them- selves. The only things the folks did not enjoy were those pesky black flies. They could have left town for the day and no one would have missed them. Saturday was another busy day between the bed race, the sidewalk sale and the Kiddie Camival. No doubt the wee folks enjoyed them- selves. On Sunday afternoon, the Senior card players got together in the Conference Room at the recre- ation centre. I understand there was a good turn-out of residents from both Terrace Bay and Schreiber, and all agreed it was a nice way to spend the final afternoon of the Canada Day celebrations. Canada Day Bite I hate to do this, but I have a bite and to try and be diplomatic I'll say "To whom it may concerm:" On the big day of the year -- Canada's birthday -- with a parade and visitors and three flag poles in the park near the fountain, not a flag was flying; not even a Canadian flag. To the right of the Canadian flag should have been the Stars and Stripes, and on the pole on the left should have been the flag of Ontario. I was given a "half-hearted excuse" that one flag had been stolen already. Well that may be, but for at least in broad daylight with a lot of people around, those flags should have been flying. How sad. And now to end this week with a joke: A new young bride was cooking her first breakfast for her husband. She was cooking sausages when her husband call out: "How is breakfast coming?" to which she- replied: "'Not too good. By the time I get the sausages cleaned out, there is not much left!" Until next time, au revoir! Four Greenpeace members with trespassing " By Greg Huneault the News Four members of Greenpeace were charged with trespassing on private property while they were photographing the Kimberly-Clark effluent stream on the evening of July 4. Joyce McLean, Great Lakes Campaign Co-ordinator, Renate Kroesa technical advisor, a still photographer and a video photog- rapher said they were photograph- ing and looking at the effluent stream approximately 5 kilometers east of Terrace Bay where it crosses beneath Highway 17. The group said a Kimberly- Clark security officer, who was allegedly photographing them, asked them if they were aware that they were trespassing. They said they were not aware and walked over to the other side of the high- way to resume photographing the effluent stream. Each of the four were then charged served with a summons for tres- passing. They paid the fines, but complained there was an absence of "No Trespassing" signs posted. There are no "No Trespassing" signs along the highway; however, there is a Kimberly-Clark barricad- ed road off the highway indicating that trespassing is prohibited. * English 1106 * Psychology 11 * General Science 2310 * Geography 1100 * Philosophy 2571 * Psychology 3001 * Sociology 2221 yN Pilea oad BOGE, SIGNAL NORTH Distance Education LAKEHEAD UNIVERSITY NOW REGISTERING! - Communications Skills for Science Students - Astronomy | (Half Credit) - Environments and Peoples - Moral Issues (Half Credit) - Introductory Psychology - Abnormal Psychology - Criminology 00 Applications available from: CALL SIGNAL NORTH: (collect) 807-343-8210 (toll free) 1-800-465-3959 CONTACT NORTH SITES PYBLIC LIBRARIES L.U.
