Henry Terrault named Citizen of the Year at Chamber of Commerce banquet
The crowd of about 110 gave Mr. Henry Terrault a standing ovation as he came forward to the head table to accept the 1974 Citizen of the Year trophy and plaque at the Chamher of Commerce banquet held Saturday night at Club Mocombo.
Chairman Dr. Wm. Cuts called on his wife Ethel to read the citation, and on Mayor Dick Plain to make the presentation,
‘‘This is more than a surprise,’’ said Mr. Terrault - ‘‘] almost wish I stayed home! There must have been many nominations - how come they picked an old retired farmer like me?”’
He thanked the unknown
Citizen
nominator, the Chamber and the judges for selecting him. To allof you ‘‘Thank you ever so much.’
The award presentation came at the end of the banquet program, chaired in quite inimitable fashion by Dr. Cuts, who blended a delightful mix of humour and seriousness in his introduc- tions and remarks.
Head table guests were Father Ubald Duchesneau, Kay Sieben, John McDonell, chairman of Sturgeon School Division, Joan Webber, Ma- yor Plain, Ethel Cuts, Steve Sieben, chairman of St. Albert School District #3; Bernice McDonell, Bill Web- ber, chairman of District #6;
of the
Year Citation
The St. Albert and District Chamber of Commerce pre- sents annually the Citizen of the Year Award to an indivi- dual who has, during the year, and over a period of years given distinguished service to the community. It is privileged to present the 1974 award to Mr. Henry Terrault.
Born in St. Albert in 1900 Mr. Terrault became a successful farmer in the Volmer district just north of the town, and was active in the numerous agriculture- oriented associations of his day. Of exemplary family life he and his wife Clara have three children of whom they may be justly proud. Now in retirement, Henry and Clara have not retreated to the
shelf for a well-earned rest, but continue active in a wide variety of community pro- jects.
To enumerate a few of Henry's contributions to the town and district of St. Albert:
1. Henry is an active, loyal member of his church and parish, having served long on its board of trustees and currently as a member of the parish council.
2. He is a charter member of the credit union and was one of its first directors.
3. He was a strong promoter of the recently built covered arena and helped in many ways in the building of that structure.
4. He is a charter member

Chairman Cuts reviewed some of the work of the Chamber from the fifties on, noting that the organization had much to its credit, including representation to government on Highway two, the underpass and the Sturgeon General Hospital. ‘*The Chamber has accomp- lished a lot, but we could do more,”’ he said. ‘‘We are the only body who get people together to get things down for the town. We need support, not only from the businessmen, but from all who are interested in the promotion of the town. The Chamber provided a common meeting ground - if all of us

St. Albert Town Council has made an initial move to incorporate a Social Devel- opment Contract into all future agreements with dev- elopers. A move which will most certainly be viewed with trepidation by the huge development corporations holding extensive inventories of land in the town and adjacent areas.
Qualico Developments Ltd being anxious to proceed with Stage 3 and 3A in Akinsdale Subdivision were the first of the developers in St. Albert to be presented with the town’s proposal for capital development prog- rams, which would be entered into on a voluntary basis by developers.
Budget breakdown for capital expenditures over the next five years indicate that some 8% million dollars will be required to serve the needs of residents in three areas: For Recreation and Cultural Facilities in neigh- bourhoods, for these kind of facilities on a Central or Town wide basis, and for Special Public Works facilit- ies such as Town Hall, Fire Hall, Police Station which must expand to serve new subdivisions coming in.
Under the concept the developer will be responsible for recreational and cultural facilities for the complete neighbourhood being devel- oped, and for a portion of the central and cult- ural facilities and public
recreation
Henry Terrault was surprised that the judges would choose him for this year’s Citizen of the Year, but the citation which accompanied his nomination made it clear that he is indeed a most deserving candidate for the honour. Mrs. Ethel Cuts read the citation and Mayor Plain presents Mr. Terrault with the Chamber of Commerce annual trophy and the individual
plaque award.

Detailed analysis of costs will not be-eompleted for two months, but estimates pre- pared for the Qualico devel- opment in Akinsdale break down as follows: For Neigh- bourhood Recreation and Cultural facilities, $350 per lot; for Central Recreational and Cultural facilities, $150 per lot; for Public Works facilities $500 per lot.

noted that the proposals embody the following prin- ciples: (1) neighbourhood re- creations and cultural facilit- ies are the sole responsibility of the developer) (2) central recreation; and public works facilities are the responsi- bility of three parties: the developer, the community as a whole and the Provincial and hopefully the Federal governments.

Mayor Plain said it gave him pleasure to attend the banquet - and he understood Bill Webber was handling the pool - I hope we could have olympic standards - our new recreation board will have some ideas. He felt the role of the Chamber was important as it deals with attracting industry, which would provide a source of employment, but not destroy the environment of St.
Albert. The job can be done and the further input of the Chamber in particular will be welcomed as we look at alternatives. The mayor con- cluded by saying he and Margaret were having a good time at their first Citizen of the Year evening.
Mr. Bill Webber was called upon to recognize the distinguished group of peo- ple who have been named first citizens over the years, noting that there are a great many people who have contributed greatly to our

6. His greatest contribu- tion over the years has been to the St. Albert and District Community League. A char- ter member when it was formed in 1939, Henry has been an executive member ever since, and has for some years been its president, including 1974. Not only did he assist with the organiza- tion construction and financ- ing of the community hall, but during its bad financial years had faith enough to reactivate the league to suit the changing times and needs of Alberta’s fastest growing community. The famous community league floats have always been great booster-promoters in Ed- monton and other parts of Alberta.
Henry Terrault, as you
may guess was the moving spirit in creating both the ideas and the actual struc- ture of these floats. However, merely enumer- ating the organizations which Henry has served so well tells only part of the story. Much more important is the personality of the man -- one who is vitally, enthusiasti- cally and unselfishly interes- ted in bettering the life style of his fellow citizens, or in giving a boost to the youth groups of this area; who does not mind donning a white jacket to personally do the **joe-boy’’ jobs involved in providing the hall for use of community groups; and fin- ally one who will doff that white coat, sieze Clara from the checkroom and take a joyous whirl around the hall. Yes, this is Henry the man - a senior citizen and a jolly good fellow. The Chaniber of Commerce takes pride in presenting you with the 1974 Citizen of the Year Award.

The thinking of council is that the neighbourhood fa- cilities should be put in early in the development of a subdivision to serve the people as they move in, and not at the end.
“No doubt a portion of’
these costs will be reflected in higher housing costs’’ said Mayor Plain Tuesday. ‘‘However a portion must be borne by the developer. Some of these houses are selling at $72,000 now. What we are asking is one and three-quarters per cent of the total selling price.’’

In his letter to Qualico yesterday, Mayor Plain said “it is felt that any developer wishing to participate in this capital expenditure program should have the estimated costs per lot information before finalizing the sale of development of any existing lots presently contained wi- thin the corporation’s inven- tory of serviced land in St. Albert.’’
‘It is hoped,’’ the letter concluded, ‘‘that your com- pany will avail itself of the opportunity -of participating in these or similar programs. Any comments, suggestions of discussion of alternatives is welcomed.,”’
A copy of the letter was forwarded to the Minister of Municipal Affairs, Hon. Da- ve Russell.

NAME THE SCHOOL CONTEST
ST. ALBERT PROTESTANT SEPARATE SCHOOL DISTRICT NO. 6 is sponsoring a contest to name the new elementary community core school being built in Lacombe Park. The contest is open to everyone in District No. 6 - especially children. A prize will be awarded for the winning name. Send your suggestion for the name with the reasons for your
choice to Mrs. M. Martin, Assistant Superintendent, 60 Sir Winston Churchill Avenue, St. Albert. Contest closes December 31, 1974,
ing to a school. The recogni- tion of need involves nearly every department and there has to be some shifting around of accommodation.
The board members stud- ied the drawings of the addition and Mr. Gardener explained the outlines of the plan. The present plant plan. The present plan shows very attractive long windows for the cafeteria which drew some questions. Mrs. Shirley McCaffery said that although she liked the look of them, she had some reservations about them in the light of vandalism occurring in the district. She was also cdncer- ned that there was a jog-in, in the structure of the building, and that this type of area is also frequently subjected to vandalism.
Mr. Don Munro felt that the area referred to by Mrs. McCaffery would make an excellent student lounge and concession area if it were to be covered. Mr. Gardener said that if this area had ceilings etc., it would have to be counted as space although it could be used as a hallway.
In connection with the tendering for portable class- rooms for the Lacombe Park community core school, Mr. Gardener informed the board that the Education Depart- ment had agreed to the tender submitted by Gendall Industries and that a contract was in the mail for the board members to sign. He also reported that the Lacombe Park school is now under construction.
Mr. Bill Webber, chair- man, thanked Mr. Gardener for his time and Mr. Gardener left the meeting.
Mr. Munro, reporting on buildings and properties, introduced a request from the principal of Sir Alexander Mackenzie, Mr. Lowell Th- rondson, for three extra school keys for use by teachers. There was some discussion on this matter, the main concern being that with three extra keys in circula- tion, security would be lessened. Mr. Throndson was given the opportunity to state his case and he felt that the number of teachers in a school should be the deciding factor in determining how many keys should be made available. He said that a school with 37 teachers

should not be restricted to having the use of only three keys, the same number used in a school with fewer teachers.
Mrs. McCaffery asked how many problems arose in the past when all teachers had keys. Mr. Elmer Gish, superintendent, replied that there were more incidents of doors being left open. He did realize, however, that a shortage of keys could present a problem when teachers wished to enter school premises after hours to prepare work.
Mr. Webber thought the matter needed further review and referred it to the buildings and properties committee.
A letter from Mr. L. McKinstry, secretary ad- ministrator’s council, was read requesting that the board establish a policy whereby any district student, who competes in a group or individual sport at the provincial level, be reimbur- sed fully by the board for principal-approved expenses relating to meals and acc- ommodation, and that this policy also apply to the supervising teacher. Mr. Munro moved that the matter be referred to the finance committee for budget consideration.
In response to a request from Mrs. McCaffery, Mrs. Muriel Martin, assistant superintendent, presented a report on non-English sp- eaking students in District 6 schools. Teaching the non- English student represents a new dimension of the school curriculum and one that few staff members have had experience in terms of train- ing or teaching. In an attempt to provide assistance to classroom teachers having major responsibilities with non-English speaking stu- dents, several steps have been taken including a meeting with the Depart- ment of Education for famil- iarization with available re- source materials, personnel etc., teacher visits to view instruction and materials currently in use in Edmonton schools and duplication of their program materials.
Mrs. Martin said that the district teachers have been very innovative and have gone far beyond the sugges- tions they received from the Edmonton schools. Mrs. McCaffery suggested the board investigate the possi- bility of Federal Government grants to provide a teacher specially for the instruction of structural English.
Dr. W. Cuts moved that the board of trustees ask their chairman, Mr. Webber, to be their representative at the Citizen of the Year banquet sponsored by Cha- mber of Commerce on Nov, 30. The motion was carried,
Mr. Gish reported that he had received a phone cal
from Capital Cable T.V. asking if District 6 and District 3 were interested in putting together a combined Christmas concert to be taped and then televised several times over the local station. Mr. Gish had con- tacted the schools in District 6 and received a good response. Mr. Webber thought this an excellent venture.
Mr. George Hargreaves, secretary-treasurer, reported that he had received a letter from the town stating that December 5 was an agree- able date meeting between the town and the two districts.

from Vinto Engineering, Mr. J. W. Chomiak, was also present to propose two alter- native cooling systems to the board. One proposed modifi- cation sought to enlarge the existing system and the other suggested an additional sys- tem to be located in the additional building if the board decide to build. De- pending on the board’s decision, work would take from a couple of days to two weeks.
It was the consensus opin- ion of the board that the Administration Building needed a more efficient cool- ing system and Mr. Sieben asked the central office staff to look into the projected needs of the Administration Building with a view to extensions or alterations.
Under correspondence it- ems, a request from Mr. Kaminsky, principal of Fath- er Jan School, for board support of $100 for a band clinic for all band partici- pants was approved.
Mr. Ted Baldwin, secre- tary-treasurer, requested approval to purchase indus- trial arts equipment based on the lowest bid. The board approved this request. An Application from the St. Albert Parish Council fora Christmas party to be held at St. Albert High School was also approved.

The regulations in conn- ection with the extended use of school buildings were discussed by the board. At present, the regulations re- quire that activities be ofa non-profit, cultural, social or educational nature, which can be appropriately con- ducted in the space required. An activity must be such that commercial space is not available and that it does not involve the consumption of alcoholic beverages. A res- ponsible adult must under- take to accept responsibility for the activity and the conduct of the participants, and the applicant shall accept responsibility for all breakages and damages. Lastly, the secretary-treas- urer has the right to terminate an agreement in cases of negligence or abuse of premises. The ruling that commercial space must be unavilable became the main topic of the discussion. Mr. Peter Freeman said that he did not consider the board should be quite so restrictive and that he, himself, was not sensitive about competing with commercial space. He also questioned whether a short term insurance available for property dam- age. After consideration, the board decided to delete the ruling concerning non-avail- ability of commercial space.

Downtown parking proposal considered
The Committee of the Whole considered a letter from Mr. Norm Shalagan seeking the purchase of Lot 19A, a vacant lot on St. Michael Street, or failing that the purchase of the westerly 15 feet of the lot for parking purposes at their regular meeting on Nov. 25.
Speaking to the sale of the property, Mr. R. L. Byron, administrator, drew atten- tion to an earlier recommen- dation from staff which stated that the land is too valuable to let go at this early stage in the redevelopment of the downtown area. He stated that a possibility to be considered is the conversion of the property to public parking which could be brought up at the 1975 budget studies. Mr. Byron also advised that the proper- ty be not considered for sale until such time as a general

plan of the area is establish- ed and other possible uses of the land in the area are determined.
Coun. Breadner moved that it be recommended to council that the town up- grade the property for off-street parking purposes and offer Lot 19A to Mr. Shalagan on that basis rather than sell the property.
Coun. Smith inquired if the intent was for the town to provide six or 12 stalls. Mr. Byron stated that the intent would be to create 12 stalls but it was recognized that the matter would be left until budget studies when alter- natives, costs, and other related factors would be brought up.
Mayor Plain asked if the town would be absorbing costs and not realizing and return, either from leasing or other methods. Mr. Byron stated that the information would be provided at the time the 1975 budget studies are being conducted.
Coun. Throndson stated that when the matter had come up before it had been stated in principle that the property would be establish- ed as off-street parking as part of the town’s downtown parking program. The Mayor asked if it was an open question if the town would realize some form of return on the capital outlay. Mr. Byron stated that this was still an open question which would be resolved when the matter was before the budget studies.
Coun. Breadner altered his motion to be that it be recommended to council that town upgrade the property for off-street parking pur- poses and the 1975 budget will consider the alternatives to revenue and costs. The motion carried 6 to 0 (Coun. Fyfe was not in attendance at the meeting).

Vandalism
We have recently seen and read in the Gazette the damage which had been done to some property at Lions Park. It’s indeed a shame to have things des- troyed after the Lions Club gave of their time and effort to such a worthy cause. A park is there for people to
enjoy not to go and destroy. In this day and age parents must do more than give their children money and material things. These young adults are looking for security - the only kind which lies beyond man in our day and age.

POLICE BEAT
A seven year old boy from St. Albert caused quite a stir last week when he ran away from home. The event was reported on television and radio and when the boy didn’t turn up RCMP had search groups out looking for the lost boy.
As it turned out the youngster wasn’t found - he decided to call the whole thing off of his own bat and returned home one morning at 1:30 a.m.
An RCMP spokesman told the Gazette that apparently the young lad had just decided to call it quits, got whatever it was that was bothering him out of his system, then went home. The police spokesman said “IT wouldn’t have had the guts to do that when I was a lad of his age."’
RCMP report this week that so far the ice on the Sturgeon River has been causing no problems to members of the skating fraternity, though they, do warn people using the river for skating to exercise caution when they take a breath of fresh air on skates.

Education Communications
November 27, ‘‘The Gaz- ette Reflects,’’ centered on the difficulties of getting parents and ratepayers more involved with educational matters. Because today’s world is such a busy one we must concern ourselves to what extent and with which means we can improve communication.
Some Home and School Associations have not proven effective. Why? These could be a possible line of communication bet ween parents and a local school. Prerequisites would be a group of interested parents able to function independ- ently with clearly defined aims and objectives that are realistic and reasonable and truly an asset to the school. Problems here are lack of interested parents willing to commit themselves and the organization tends to rely on teachers who already have a large share of extra curricu- lar items to deal with. Nonetheless, some Home and School Associations have met with success.
If parent - teacher inter- views are not fulfilling a need for communication on per- tinent matters perhaps they should be used as a means to establish rapport between parent and teacher and could be followed with more extensive communication.
The Gzzette suggests more open board meetings. | was under the impression incamera sessions are quite rare. Some of the meetings perhaps are routine and might seem rather hum- drum, but attendance at just one could give insights to the types of business and pro- blems a board deals with. It is also a way to become acquainted with trustees and administrators, Perhaps th- ere 1s a lack of advertise- ment. This is being rectified, Our next meeting is on Monday, December the 9th atthe Central Office, 6 St. Vital Avenue at 7:30 p.m,
Should there be more public meetings to explain eductional finance, curricula, and to receive input from parents? The ‘‘Annual Rate- payers Meetings’’ have a history of extremely poor turnouts. Why? Is it lack of interest, lack of time, lack of understanding the purpose of them, or a combination of reasons? Special meetings, at least, attract the interest of a few. On November 27 Albert Lacombe School pre- sented a very informative and interesting evening on the religious program offered in that school. A great deal of time and effort went into the preparation and an excellent guest speaker was invited. Few would deny that the subject of the meeting was of tremendous importance. Al- bert Lacombe has a popula- tion of over 600 pupils (Grades 1 - 6) and yet less than 50 adults chose to attend that evening. I would also venture to guess that one-third of those adults were interested teachers from that school, and not parents of the students.
Besides joining education- al organizations and attend- ing meetings, means of communication can be esta- blished through the proper use of television, newspa- pers, newsletters and the telephone.
Somehow people directly
involved in education -! administrators, trustees, teachers must make
parents more aware. Even if there is no ‘‘public rela- tions’’ committee in a school district, there still must be public relations.
If parents have the attitude that they have nothing to offer, that attitude must be disspelied. After all, they provide the children and the tax dollars.

Qualico’s Akinsdale under discussion
Qualico’s Akinsdale Dev- elopment was the topic under discussion at a_ special in-camera meeting of Council Committee of the Whole held November 19. Messrs. Y. Chui, J. Sribney and George Walker represented Qualico to discuss the development and answer questions.
Mr. Chui explained that the planning of Akinsdale has been going on since 1971. A 1971 receipt of the alignment of the ring road outlined the southerly boun- dary of Akinsdale and approval to begin develop- ment of Akinsdale was given
in late 1972. Qualico he noted, has oversized services for an area greater than Akinsdale. Total Qualico land holdings are 655 acres and a performance bond for 1.2 million dollars has been posted for Stage 3. The heavy financial commitment, outlined in a brief submitted to the coinmittee, is based on belief in good faith that Akinsdale would be develop- ed in accordance with good planning. Mr. Chui asked that the start on under- ground services be made in the winter of 1974.
Mr. Sribney advised that a
financial commitment exists with over $1 million invested not including the price of raw land. He stated that Qualico was prepared to hold back on occupancy until the proposed water line is in and not to allow occupancy until the roads are complete. A written submission was for- warded to this effect.
Mr. Walker suggested that a list of priorities be drawn and a shift of monies to other areas. He said he did not wish to see St. Albert give up on single family dwellings but stated there should be a review of priorities to ensure
dollars spent now are used to maximize benefits to future residents. He suggested curb line walks and lots of 52 feet in width with a site area equal to or not more than one per cent below that provided in a 58 foot lot. Also suggested was a modified zero lot line and side yards designed to allow adequate fire separation and a drive- way access of 10 feet. The suggestions would lead to an increase in lot yields (by 10 per cent) without increasing servicing costs.
Also suggested was the elimination of sidewalks in
purely residential streets in Stages 4, 5S and 6 of Akinsdale which would result in a savings of approximately $250,000. Assuming curb line walks, zero lot lines and removal of sidewalks, a savings of $470,000 to $565,000 eould be realized for community facilities.
Mr. Sribney replied to enquiry on an industrial park, proposed for the area but awaiting direction from council, stating that the park would not harm marketing of houses and rather, it would help tremendously. He poin- ted out that a buffer of 220

Nickerson
students have week at
Sundre
St. Albert P.S.S.D. #6 operates a special outdoor education program at the grade 6 level throughout the district. Last year the Leo Nickerson students enjoyed an excellent week in June at the Inter Varsity Christian Fellowship Camp at Sundre, Alberta. Initial arrangements have been made for a similar program this year.
The cost will be somewhat higher as it is with every- thing else but the school is confident that the students can raise their share of the funds required. The govern- ment Educational Opportun- ities Fund finances part of the program.
On December 4, Wednes- day evening, and again on Saturday morning, Decem- ber 7, the students’ union members grades 4, S and 6 will be canvassing St. Albert door-to-door with boxes of chocolate mint-thins for sale, the proceeds to go toward outdoor education and other students’ union projects.
In addition, tonight and on Saturday morning, as they sell their mints, the student canvassers will be asking for Campbell Soup labels in a final effort to culminate a tremendous drive undertak- en by the whole school to earn a carousel slide projec tor and a number of badly needed soccer balls for their school, The students are hopeful that people will have one or more labels ready for them
School sale goes well

of a mosaic of used toys, games and skating equip- ment. The evening, under the direction of Mrs. Judy Wood was held with the objective of obtaining funds for outdoor education equip- ment.
From all reports received, the evening was both succ- essful and entertaining!

Parents have a “metric” PTA meeting
It was a PTA meeting with a difference November 28 at the Leo Nickerson school when things went metric overnight.
Supervisor of Math and Science instruction with the St. Albert Separate School Board No. 6 John Curilla really socked the metric system to the 30 or so parents who turned out to the regular PTA meeting last Thursday night telling them that since the metric system was coming by 1977, now was the time for them to get to know what their kids would be taught about it in the schools.
For the kids it looked as if it would be fun, judging the way their parents played with the teaching aids which would help the youngsters of
the future overcome their fear of the unknown (the metric system) as it gradual- ly displaces the Imperial system of 16 ounces to one pound and 1720 yards to the mile by the late seventies.
Mr. Curilla gave an interesting account of the metric system which in the main looks as if it will have decided advantages over the present system of weights and measurements.
He pointed out some of the more obvious changes as Canada changed to the metric system.
Gals on the beach would no longer be 36-22-36 but 90-60-90 as inches changed to centimeters. And for females who think they’re getting a bad deal with this change, they can take conso-

lation when they weigh themselves. For the scales will show them at a mere 60 (kilograms) when formerly the scales would register at 110 (pounds). Road hogs on the St. Albert Trail who like to go at break-neck speed can imagine they are at Le Mans race track when they head north at 90 (kilometers) per hour, instead of 50 (miles) per hour.
But it'll be the end of two by fours as the construction industry moves metric and these measurements are transformed to 55 x 100 (millimetres).
Mr. Curilla pointed out to the meeting that the real advantages of the metric system will be felt in manu- facturing and industry. He said that at the moment there were 1500 different sizes of windows for both high rises and cottages and that these would be brought down to 150 when the system went metric.
He also pointed out that under the Imperial system of measurements, there were many varieties in the pitch sizes of nuts and bolts - 60 different varieties and these would be reduced to a mere nine.
Mr. Curilla told the meet- ing that one reason why Canada had decided to go metric was because two American motor companies have saved millions of dollars following the first six months of the change over to the metric system.
‘*Ford has a metric plant in Ohio,”’ he said, ‘‘and Gener- al Motors have put $2 million into developing a metric motor.”’
Briefly skimming the his- tory of the metric system, Mr. Curilla said it had begun in France in 1795 becoming legal in Canada by 1873. The Federal Government then declared an official policy of metrication in 1970.
He then said that as soon as a person got to know the pre-fixes of the metric system - kilo for 1000 times larger than, hecto for 100 times larger and deca for 10 times larger, then milli for 1000th of, centi for 100th of, deci for one tenth of - you understand the entire sys- tem.
He pointed out that the metric system was also a decimal system depending on the movement cof the decimal point for a change in values. For instance 163 cents can become $1.63 simply by placing the point after the one; 163 centi- meters becomes 1.63 meters following the same system.
While many of the changes will not prove that drastic - two quarts will even out to two litres - housewives might find themselves hit by having to buy metric cups, spoons and cookbooks.
As one parent pointed out when leaving the meeting, ‘*Maybe the change will be all right for the manufactur- ers, but what happens when we have to buy the curtain rods and curtains which go with the new specifica- tions?”
However, Mr. Curilla cer- tainly succeeded in making the metric system sound fun for the kids anyway. Teach- ers he pointed out would have to make the system relevant to their own exper- ience. For instance, a milli- meter, they would be told,
was the thickness of a dime, a centimeter, the thickness of a man’s little finger, a deci- meter, the width of a hand and a meter, half the height of a door.
Games were introduced to the parents which were. de- signed to bring the metric system over to the young- sters in a fun way.
One game consisted of a millimeter code box - five millimeters being the letter G, 10 Fand 20 T and so on. Beneath the code box, there were a number of vertical lines each of different mea- surements. If the code is applied to each line, the line becomes a letter of the alphabet and the lines in turn are seen to be a message. One ‘‘mystery millimeter message’ deciphered in this way actually reads ‘‘Meas- uring is fun.”’
Another more. simple game called ‘‘Computing with Kilometers’’ was in the form of a road map. One centimeter equalled 25 kilo- meters and by using the centimeter ruler supplied with the game, the child could measure the distance between say Red Deer and Calgary, about six centi- meters on the map and so 150 kilometers in actual distance.
Mr. Curilla said that the metric system has already caught on in one St. Albert high school and as the new system gradually percolates into the lower grades, they'll have no problems with it as they grow older and their studies become more ad- vanced.
»>
AFTER A PTA meeting at the Leo Nickerson School last week about the metric system and how it will affect the kids, teachers and parents went metric. Here math and science teacher at the school Kay Gafuik stoops to measuring the hallway with a wheel which measures out one meter per revolution, then clicks to a halt.

Hunka defeats Gervais
5-4 to pick up $3000
The main event final of the St. Albert Invitational Cash Bonspiel featured one of the finest curling matches ever played on St. Albert ice as the Hunka-Gervais rinks battled to the wire for top prize of $3,000.
Final score was 5-4 for 12 ends and Ken Hunka had to come through with a perfect draw for his final shot to score the win.
The first, third, fifth, seventh and ninth ends were blanked with singletons sco- red alternately on the 2nd, 4th, 6th, 8th and 10th. The Hunka team stole one On the 10th to lead 3-2. Like the veteran competitor he is, Gervais came through with
two in the 11th to go ahead 4-3 but facing the hammer on the way home.
Tension was high in the final end as spectators wat- ched some perfectly execu- ted shots from both rinks and enthusiastic applause ack- nowledged them. Hector’s last shot called for a come around tap up into the four foot. The tap fell just short, leaving a Hunka stone still counting.
Hunka’s only play for the needed second rock was a draw to the button and he repeated what he had done in the fourth end, a perfect draw shot.
First prize of $3,000 was awarded the Hunka Rink;
$1,500 to Gervais Rink; $600 to Bill Mitchell rink; $600 to Marv Porowski rink; $150 to Hilton rink; $150 to Lionel Wood rink; $150 to Rick Cust rink; $150 to Jim Kosh rink.
The Ernie Bird rink of Edmonton won the consola- tion event defeating Brent Hodgins rink of St. Albert. Bird rink received $200 and $100 to Hodgins rinks.
Sponsors were assigned a rink by a draw arrangement from the 32 entries and winners were as follows: Day’s Painting Supplies of Morinville won $400; Butt’s Auto Body of Morinville won $200 and Osborne's Real Estate of Edmonton and Premier Esso of St. Albert won $100 each.

All who helped are to be congratula- ted on the excellent results of their efforts.

Sportshop Barons Midget
Goaltender Dennis LaFI- eur’s shutout coupled with leftwinger Paul McCann’s hattrick, Monday propelled St. Albert Sportshop Barons to a 9-0 win over Enoch.
The well deserved Baron victory followed a disapp- ointing 5-4 loss to Barrhead midgets Friday in Barrhead, and a S-2 win over a St. Albert juvenile house league team two days earlier.
The latest win left the Barons with six victories in 10 outings in exhibition hockey, and made up for a 5-3 loss the Barons suffered to Enoch earlier in the season.
The hustling Barons were full credit for the win, as they
outhit and outshot Enoch in the Enoch arena. The two teams were scoreless after the opening period, but broke the game wide-open with give goals in the second.
Lloyd Olson added two goals for the winners, while singles came from Rod Olsen, Dave Shipanoff, Gil- bert Longpre, and Dave Kieser. The Barons outshot Enoch 38-19.
The win was a vast improvement for the Barons, after having suffered a hum- iliating loss to Barrhead in Barrhead.
The hometown Barrhead midgets, only on ice for the fourth time in the season, racked up five successive
goals by the midway mark of the second period, and were full value for the lead.
Blake Millroy started the Barons back with six minutes remaining in the middle period, and a minute later linemate Rod Olsen cut the margin to 5-2.
Rod Olsen's second goal of the game at the midway mark of the third period cut the lead to two goals, and captain Terry Leddy rounded out scoring with two and one-half minutes remaining in the game.
Against Doug Foreman’s juveniles one week ago, the two clubs played to a scoreless first period, before Dave Kieser broke the

Comets win 9th game
Comets won their ninth game of the season on Sunday with a 3-1 win over Fort Saskatchewan. Zane Jakubec in the nets for St. Albert played an outstanding game turning back 30 shots. First period was scoreless and the teams split a pair in the second.. Comets opened the lead to 2-1 early in the third and held on throughout the period. Fort pulled their
goalie in the dying minutes only to have St. Albert break loose and score into an open net for their well deserved 3-1 win. Earlier this year, the Comets lost a close 5-4 contest to Fort on their home ice.
Next home games for the Comets are this Thursday against Sherwood Park and on Sunday against Winter- burn.

Q. I've heard that “home is where you hang your hat,” but surely it can’t be true, can it, that our homeowners policy covers the belongings we take with us when we go on vaca- tion? A tourist at the hotel we stayed at says I’m wrong.
A. Your policy does cover the luggage up to the value of at least $1,000 and possibly more. And that’s true even if you’re thousands of miles from home —and even if you don’t own a hat! If you’re travelling with the family jewels and your fancy fur coat you had better check the policy limitations which apply.

Born Katie Bourson in Marshall, Minnesota, Nov, 29th, 1889, she first came to the Namao district as a girl in 1903. She was married to Frank Davis on July 12, 1912. They farmed in the Excelsior district until Mr. Davis became ill and had to be hospitalized so Katie lived in Edmonton. After his passing she returned to her farm home where she still lives.
She has three sons, Leon- ard, Ray and Marshall, four grandchildren and five great grandchildren.
We all wish her many more happy birthdays.

By Jim McIntyre
‘*L was born in the country and came back to the country.’’
Those were the words of land and property developer Ken Richardson, 38, of Namao, who came to Canada 18 years ago, a penniless farm lad from Leppington, Yorkshire, England deter- mined to make a go of it in the land of opportunity.
It’s taken a long time for Ken to get back to the country life he loved so much as a Yorkshire lad. Since coming to Canada he's almost literally lived out the soldier, sailor, tinker, tailor myth before finding his real niche in life as a land and property developer and or- ganic farmer.
Ken and his wife Barbara and four sons live out on the Namao Ridge Estate about 20 miles northeast of St. Albert, the estate being one of Ken’s own developments.
Ken remembers clearly how he came out to Canada so many years ago.
He said he had no education to speak of and left school in Yorkshire at 14 becoming a farm hand ona nearby farm. For a while he was aimless, the youngest in a family of eight till his sister-in-law came over from Canada and persuaded Ken it was time to move out and look for opportunities at the other end of the rainbow.
A month later, Ken was on the way to Canada and arrived in Ottawa in 1956, with no job and no money but bags of enthusiasm.
When he got there, the first person he met was his eldest brother whom he'd never seen before. That brother is now 60 years old.
Ken felt on arrival in Canada that the West would be more open and friendly than out East so he promptly headed out to the prairies and found everything he’d heard about the West was true.
‘‘The people were more friendly, more open and willing to assist,’’ he said.
The month after Ken arrived in Canada he became a soldier.

airborne division; I was assistant to the Brigadier General and later became a lance corporal,’’ he said.
Ken pointed out that he never saw service abroad during his three year stint with the armed forces, but took a ‘‘pre-para’’ course near Edmonton spending six weeks crawling through sw- amps with kit bags twice his own weight on his back.
Ken said that when he started this training period near Edmonton he was one of the first soldiers to be stationed at the new barracks at Griesbach.
By the time he was released he was stationed in Calgary. Ken remains proud of his service with the armed forces. ‘‘While I was with them I never had one charge and I got a good conduct strip,’’ he said.
During the last two months of his time with the army, Ken was converted to Chris- tianity and decided to train as a minister at the North- west Canadian Bible College in Edmonton in 1959. In 1962 he went into the ministry at Cold Lake with his wife and worked on the mission in that community. He met his wife, from Loon Lake, Sask., while doing his theological training in Edmonton.
Gradually Ken got disillu- sioned with what he calls ‘*Churchianity’’ feeling that his mission behind the pulpit was limited and that ‘‘the people who could be listen- ing didn’t come.’’ So he decided to go into business where he could meet with the people all week and not just on Sundays.
‘Tran a painting company for six years from 1963 to 1969 in Edmonton,’’ he stated, ‘‘and then went into property management.”
‘In 1971 after learning how to finance projects from small shacks to apartments and after reading the book ‘*Think and Grow Rich,’’ Ken formed Richard’s Pro- perties Limited and went into

FARMCHEK
A NEW APPROACH TO FARM ACCOUNTING
We are once again nearing the end of the year and farmers will be faced with their annual headache - Income Tax Returns. Cam Gregoire, Manager of the Royal Bank of Canada, Morinville wants to take this opportunity to inform his farm clients about Farmchek.
Farmchek is a simplified accounting system that enables a farmer to keep accurate records of farming expenses and receipts in the course of his normal
Farmchek is based on the fact that most expenses today are paid by cheque. By using specially coded cheques and deposit slips, Farmchek customers can obtain a monthly record of their expenses and receipts by simply using the special cheques when paying their expenses and specially coded deposit slips when depositing their also offers special transactions forms to allow the customer to enter into the system any transactions carried out in cash, At the end of each month the bank sends the cheques,
deposits and cash transactions to the data processing centre and the farmer is provided with details of each together with monthly and year-to-date listing of expenses and receipts.

property development ina big way.
As well as promoting the Namao Ridge Estate devel- opment, Ken says that he is also developing two plots of landin Salmon Arm, B.C., and also Elk Island Estates nearer home.
As if to give a lead to those who would like to try their hand living, Ken and his family moved out to Namao Ridge October 14 and
at country
it looks as if the next stage of Ken's existence is about to begin.
He's already acquired twe goats but his main intention is to become an organic farmer, producing enough food without using artificial fertilizer, to become self- sustaining.
To this end Ken was built what he calls a solarium, literally a suntank, which will be able to raise food 24 hours a day. It will operate by picking up the southern exposure of the sun during the day and then dispersing the heat to plants by night below the frost level. He said the 1200 square foot area will raise food 24 hours a day sufficient for 60 families.
Ken also said there will be different zones in the solar- ium such as a tropical zone where he can grow even bananas if he wishes. To preserve the produce from the solarium, Ken has also beuilt a root cellar into his home where the temperature will remain at 30 degrees Fahrenheit constantly.
Ken pointed out that he has also built a fish tank into his solarium sufficient to take 300 trout. And just north of this development he plans to use a barn for livestock.
With his dreams of return- ing to the country fulfilled, Ken looks forward to a bright future, the days when he tried to find himself as a foodstore operator, a distri- butor for musical instru-
ments and car bumpers, as a soldier and laundromat op- long gone.

Sorry to report that there is still no ice at the arena. The main reason for this of course is the unusual warm weather we're experieencing for this time of the year. However if it gets a little colder, I understand we should have ice at the arena by the weekend.

Report from Parliament Hill
By Stan Schellenberger MP Wetaskiwin
On November 1, the Honourable Barney Danson, Minister of State for Urban Affairs, announced the gov- ernment’s intention to auth- orize, for a one year period, the payment of a $500 grant to people buying a new moderately-priced home for the first time. This measure was subsequently confirmed in Mr. Turner’s budget speech.
The homeowner grant will be payable to people who are buying a new home for the first time, within price limits which vary by market area, such limits being those used by the Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation in sett- ing the upper sealing of loans it will insure under the National Housing Act.
Provisions stipulate that the housing must be new, not

previously occupied, and of a permanent nature. It must be the owner’s principal resi- dence. Owners of mobile homes or recreational ve- hicles will be able to benefit from the subsidy provided that the unit is considered a principal residence of a permanent type.
The grant is available for a one year period - Nov. 1, 1974 to Nov. 1, 1975 - but it is to some degree retroactive. It applies to those people who own their own homes or to those who were in the process of building their own homes before November 1, 1974, provided occupancy took place after that date.
A new owner may apply for the grant to his local Central Mortgage and Hous- ing Corporation office. His application will be processed and if approved, a cheque will be forwarded to him.

crafts by local residents at very reasonable prices.
The store will be operating over the pre-Christmas per- iod, ‘‘But,’’ as program co-ordinator for the Sturgeon Regional Recreation Board Jean Smith pointed out this week, ‘‘store hours will be by appointment only before Christmas.”’
Mrs. Smith said that crafted items had been pouring into the office this week, from pottery to creat- ive stitchery and bazaar items like candles, mittens and knitted baby sets; also pin cushions and crochet items.
Mrs. Smith commented that the store will provide an outlet for all handcrafted items in the Sturgeon re-
gional recreation area whe- ther they come out of handi- crafts classes or not.
The store will therefore have the dual function of being a display point for local handicrafts as well as a retail outlet. ‘‘This gives the people a chance to see what is going on in Sturgeon,’’ Mrs. Smith added.
Considering that the exis- tence of the store -has depended more on the ‘‘by word of mouth approach,’’ the number of people bring- ing in items has been more than encouraging.
The store has the official approval of the Sturgeon Regional Recreation Board. There is also an agreement with the Board and local craftsmen and women that
the items can be priced by the individual craftsman and 10 per cent of this price will be deducted when sold by the board as a commission. It's pointed out by the Board that a handicraft guild will likely be set up to look after the store, its organiza- tion and the display of crafts. The Guild will also be responsible for setting the hours and days of the store operation and also to oversee the quality and quantity of the handicrafts. Guild mem- bers will also be responsible for finding a hostess to look after the store on store days. While the store is just one manifestation of the Stur- geon Regional Recreation Board’s efforts to get the communities of the area
involved in recreation, the Board has just had a big publicity drive to let the public know what regional recreation is all about.
To this end there was an “Open House’’ at the Re- gional Recreation Board’s offices November 29 from 1 p.m. to 9 p.m. with all the Board's staff on hand to tel Board’s staff on hand to tell the public about recreation and show them round the office area. The following day, November 30, a special workshop Was held at the office where''the Superinten- dent of the Sturgeon Region- al Recreation Board Laurent Coulombe explained the concept of regional recrea- tion to the public with the aid of flip charts
Mayor Stapleton clears air
Morinville Mayor Art Sta- pleton this week cleared up two issues causing confusion on the local recreation scene.
First Mayor Stapleton poi- nted out that a recent report that the town was establi- shing a recreation board really amounted to a move by the town for more co-opera- tion and communication be-
tween 31 recreational bodies in the town and town council. Secondly there is no truth in a rumour that Morinville will be pulling out of regional recreation as of the first of next year when the town ratifies a fresh agreement with the Sturgeon Regional Recreation Board for recrea- tion services in the locality.
Referring to a meeting held in the town recreation centre last week Mayor Stapleton said that that meeting was held to get more input on the local recreation board from 31 recreation clubs. Each club or group has been asked to elect a member representing the club and se of these 31
$240,000 seed cleaning plant for Morinville likely
A $240,000 seed cleaning plant seems likely to be built in the MD of Sturgeon in the not too distant future.
The plant is expected to be located near the present old facility in Morinville accord- ing to the annual report just released by the Morinville Municipal Seed Cleaning Co-operative, Nov. 23.
President of the Co-op Allan McDonnell said in the report that there was a great need for a plant which would be larger and faster to meet the demands of today’s efficient and progressive farming methods.
He said the present facilities had seen better days, the floor was settling on the driveway, the office was too small and the plant had badly worn grain legs.
He pointed out that a new facility would in no way jeopardize any of the existing plants now in operation. Mr, McDonnell also stated that he considered the association was in a very favourable financial position to approve the new project.
‘Negotiations between the Municipal District of Sturg- eon and this Board have been carried on and excellent co-operation has been forth- coming to achieve the nec- essary grants from the provincial and local levels to build as soon as possible,”’ Mr. McDonnell added.
He emphasized that the shareholders must contribute their share in this concerted effort.
He stated that the new plant should be built on the south side of the existing plant and a sloping steel spout would act as a conveyance between the two structures,

bright outlook for the de- mands of food . . . the board felt they should consider some changes. He added that it had been reported by reliable authorities that the volume of grain cleaned by the plant over the past years was a possible world record

As far as the town’s relationship with the Stur- geon Regional Recreation Board was concerned Mayor Stapleton said that the board and the town would meet ‘‘and we'll let you know what happens.”’

Gary Bland, who oper- ates the truck was there and showed the class how the truck takes the milk from the refrigerator tank. The child- ren were given an icecream treat by Mr. and Mrs. John Bland.

During the month of October, the Morinville detachment had 1,250 calls, 95 coming from the Bon Accord area, 26 calls in assisting the general public, seven motor vehicle accidents, three hit and run, four erratic driving and five vandalism. The corporal ad- vised those present that no matter how minor a com- plaint may seem, it should be reported as quite often a minor complaint will assist in solving a bigger and more serious crime. The night phone number for the RCMP is Zenith 50,000 and should always be used in an emergency. Minor com- plaints may be made during the day to the Morinville number.

No change in rules at Legal school
There'll be no changes in rules and regulations at the Legal School following a sudden sit down strike by students there November 21.

He said the board had reached this conclusion after a board meeting Nov. 25. Mr. St. Onge said there had been no more action taken by the students and that since the strike everything had been running well.
Mr. St. Onge also pointed out that he had attended a meeting with 35 parents of the local school district Nov.
28. The meeting lasted two and a half hours and the parents formed a steering committee to recruit more members for the formation of a Parent Teachers Associa- tion.
It is expected that the steering committee will liaise with a PTA already formed in Morinville before their own committee is set up.
Mr. St. Onge said that the
only way a PTA could function was if it operated for the benefit of the students. ‘*People realize that (PTA meetings) are no place to grind an axe,’’ he added.
He emphasized that PTAs were more to foster good public relations and should ultimately work towards the better education of the pupils.
