Mill manager Newman. Mclenaghan and his staff were the gracious hosts. It s certainly a revelation to see How paper is made particularly if you be never been through a paper Mill. Or. Mclenaghan mentioned the various newspapers in the . And Canada which receive their newsprint from Pine Falls. The list includes the free press. All of the weekend was t spent Mill touring. We had time to relax in the rustic Manitou Lodge fish Golf or just loaf. Our fishing party took advice from Bill Frederick one of the Mill officials who has gained a reputation in Pine Falls As the Best or Luckiest Fisherman and Hunter. He was sceptical of the Jar of pickled minnows in my tackle Box explaining i have yet to see a fish caught on a preserved minnow i think people Are just wasting their Money buying those jars of despite the fact we were All fishing in the same spot or. Frederick pulled out the biggest Pickerel. Charlie Dojack won prize Money for catching the first fish of the morning. Although he May not admit it the fish was just about the size of one of those pickled minnows for which or. Frederick reserves his scorn. It was one of those Lazy hazy summer weekends where the living is easy. But Here s a practical tip. The Mill has regular Tours for visitors and it s Well Worth seeing the transition from logs to paper. The March of time Donna Stone of 776 Niagara Street who was named outstanding woman graduate of the University of Manitoba in the 1961-62 class recently returned from a lengthy tour of Europe. She took with her the very popular volume Europe on 55 a Day by Arthur from Mer who made a lot of Money through the sales of that Book. Apparently some of the spots he recommended Are so popular now that the prices have gone up. According to miss Stone her average was closer to a Day. She remarked to a Friend i d like to bump into Arthur Frommer and give him a piece of my Well she did bump into him but did t realize it until looking at Page 41 of the july 26 Issue of time Magazine. The picture shows or. Frommer and his wife in a Paris cafe. Directly behind them is a girl whose face is partly visible. Yes the girl is Donna Stone of Winnipeg and she remembers when the picture was taken but did t realize it was the author of Europe on a Day. By the Way the Price of the meal in that particular cafe was is including wine and tip. Most original excuse i be heard was used by a local fellow on saturday july 20, after he arrived Home very late from an afternoon cocktail party. With a straight face he told the Little woman Hon Estly dear i was caught in the eclipse and had to stay if around the town jottings from a reporter s notebook Wakonda the women s organization at the University of Manitoba is holding its annual Preshie fall fashion show on sept. 9. This year they want to Trace the dress worn by University women from 1880 to the present. They re having a Tough time finding the various cos Tumes. If anyone can Call Carole Mcleod Hud son 9-5249 or Sharon Medzon Hudson 9-7868, Between 5 and 7 . Make a note of the Astra numismatic society Coin show opening thursday at the Royal Alexandra. There will be some very rare coins on display and a continuous silent auction. Why is it that the people with the narrowest minds always seem to have the widest Mouths miss cabbage Patch miss Gardener Beauty problem it s Only skin deep but Manitoba is faced with a Beauty of a problem. It s this the province is being flooded with Beauty contests. The situation is. Reaching alarming proportions for the list of contests now is As Long As your grand Mother s bathing suit. Each year More contests Are started and each year More and More girls Are slipping into dry bathing suits in the Hopes of obtain ing some sort of title prob ably the closest they la Ever get to Royalty. About the Only title that has t been used yet is miss Beauty contest. Publicity the most significant title is that of miss Winnipeg be cause the Winner competes in a National Competition for the miss Dominion of Canada Crown. The rest of the contests Are mostly the brain Waves miss Driftwood staff writer Al Barnes normally an easy going sort is sour on Beauty contests. Too Many of them for one thing he says. For another a Well perhaps Bachelor Barnes will change his mind after studying the photos accompanying his Story below. Miss miss Beach peach too Many contests of local organizations seek ing publicity. What news paper won t print the picture of a pretty girl girls have a Chance to be come miss Golden girl miss Manitoba miss Blue bomber or the Darling of business firms Community clubs 4-h clubs ethnic groups Young people s groups and University organizations. Some of the contests Are aimed at certain types of girls. For instance salad lovers have their own Little Competition. Then there is one for fur enthusiasts and for the fishing Bug who likes Trout. The prime requisite for the girls is to look Good in a bathing suit and most of the beauties usually seem to be Able to Fiu the Bill or suit. Those vital statistics Are what count. All girl As All girls try to put on a Good front the judges Are often faced with a dilemma of deciding whether the contestant is All girl. A few years ago in an eng Lish contest the girls had to strip in front of the judges to deflate charges that they were wearing palsies was pies hidden Girdle and other and in 1959, a Tokyo Plas tic surgeon said he gave bust enlarging plastic injections to the girl who won the miss Japan and later the miss universe Crown. Perhaps the solution is to hold All contests in a nudist Camp.

The Winnipeg school other problems tire water and ignorance indians Lack sound school program by Susan Dexter fourth of a series Churchill Educa Tion is the key to solving the in Dian question where do we stand today teachers Are being sent to re Mote outposts who would not qualify for jobs in the Winnipeg school division. They Are being underpaid. The starting salary is a year. In addition those who Are teaching in the integrated class rooms of the North have to con tend with language problems and inter culture rivalry Between White Cree Chipewyan and Metis. Moral concepts today the average educational attainment of the Indian Between 50 and 59 years of age is slightly Over three grades. The 20 to 29 age group has passed through about five and one half grades. With an average improvement of .81 grades a year the 1959 la Gasse report on the people of in Dian ancestry in Manitoba fore casts a Grade 8 average in 40 years. The Aims of education according to the report of the 1959 Manitoba Royal commission on education Are cultivating ability to think training for a vocation transmitting cultural heritage and inoculating moral concepts in each echoing the emphasis on vocational training is . Willis Archdeacon at St. Paul s anglican Mission Here. There must be an adjustment of curriculum to serve their he said. Dropouts Arnold Leonard Community development officer agrees. There Are one or two Grade 10 kids Here and the rest Are drop outs. While they re in school the kids Are placed in the difficult position of acting As interpreters for their parents. These people Don t know How to phone they Don t even know How to fill out an application form let alone get a in Churchill it is not a Lack of jobs but an educational deficiency on the part of the in Dian which results in 55 of 58 Chipewyan families living on Complete welfare. Pan american airways which operates the ground equipment at the Churchill rocket Range is expected to increase its staff from 220 employees to 300 next year. Highly skilled labor is demanded for these jobs which almost immediately eliminates the Indian from Contention. With dropouts amounting to slightly More than 50 per cent a Public convenience is hardly convenient it s a question of bending the Law or bending the bus. And metro apparently does not intend to Bend its buses. The corporation has pleaded not guilty in Winnipeg magistrate s court to one charge of breach of the High Way traffic act. The much ado is about this the Portage Avenue bus running East to West on Logan Avenue turns South on main Street during the course of its run. On the South Side of Logan however is a Public lavatory part of which is built on the Street proper. The Highway traffic act states that a vehicle negotiating a turn must stick As close to the inside Lane As possible. Sometime last week a me Tro bus Driver negotiated the turn South on main off Logan but while turning he drove out of the inside Lane not sticking to the inside curb the Driver was stopped and charged with breach of he Highway traffic act. Metro corporation pleaded not guilty arguing that while it is quite easy for a Small vehicle a car for example skin along the lavatory and still stick close to the in Side Lane when turning it is quite hard for a bus be cause of its size to do so. Metro it is believed argues that the size of a bus automatically throws the vehicle to the outside Lane. Crown counsel John Mont Gomery said the Issue was going to be a test he predicted that metro will argue the Case the Case is scheduled this week. Between grades 7 and 8, the problem of compact vocational academic training becomes obvious. Social maturity a degree of education too is in order for the Well wishing but uninformed Public who in some cases by interference retards and even endangers the Indian s March toward social maturity. Take one Case. An Indian girl was sent by the department of Indian affairs to attend school in Brandon. She was Given a weekly allowance out of which she was to pay her Board and room. One week she decided she would spend the Money on a Good time. Her Landlady telephoned govern ment officials who told the woman to Tell the girl to leave. She obviously was t mature enough to handle the one officer. Outfoxed instead of following their advice the Landlady kept the girl on for an additional week or two whereupon the girl disappeared without a word of thanks or Effort at payment. This did t do anyone any said the officer. The girl now thinks she can get something for nothing she s pleased at being Able to outbox the department and no fur ther in 1959, approximately was spent for education in Churchill while the liquor Bill for the town alone was Over 000.
