Present were Mayor Umscheid, Councillors Monner and Hingley, Municipal Administrator, Lynda Cyr and Bill Brown. The minutes of the meeting held on July 21, 1993 were read. Mayor Umscheid moved the adoption of these minutes. CARRIED. Council discussed the letter received from the Milo United Church in regards to speeding in the playground area and school zone. Council will be buying some signs — stop, yeild, speed & playground — which will be put up in the appropriate place. Mayor Umscheid will be talking to the Vulcan R.C.M.P. in regards to this matter. Council are also considering putting in a crosswalk from the United Church to the Lions Park. A letter is to be sent back to the church informing them of this. Two letters from concerned residents in regards to dogs running at large were read. A lengthy discussion followed* Mayor Umscheid reported that -the Recreation Board has some forms to be filled out for grants received. Mayor Umscheid said he had talked to Joanne at the Vulcan R.CuiM.P. in regards to the Big Mouth Computer Fan Out System”. This will be available for anyone to use at no charge. They will require a list of the Village resident's names, addresses and phone numbers. Lynda Cyr is to send this along with a village map and a breakdown of residents, businesses and other buildings. An example of how this would work would be if Trans Alta, wanted to let residents know the power was to be off, they would phone Joanne and tell her. She then puts this in the computer, and it will phone everyone in Milo to tell them. Councillor Hingley reported that C.A.R.L. has received $ 250,000.00 in funding from the government. Councillor Hingley said a special meeting had been called for the Marquis Foundation as several employees had quit. Currently they have part-time help but will be filling the positions at the end of the month. Bill Brown reported that the north reservoir is cleaned out now, and it was partially done with bentonite. Council discussed the problems the Village had with the pump this summer. It is currently working but they want to have a spare one ready for future uses. Brown will be in chargee of opeing the landfill site on the days decided until someone else is available. He asked Council about getting some new pipe for the fence at the reservoir. Council discussed the Village paying the insurance for the truck that Bill Brown has bought as he is using it for Village purposes. Lynda Cyr is to check into this. Lynda Cyr said she had checked with A.G.T. in regards to the monthly bill, and it is for a monthly line rental for the service. The meeting adjourned at 8:30 p.m.MILO TOPS CLUB 1-2-3-4 WHO YOU GONNA BE FOR? TOPS CLUB TOPS CLUB YEA TOPS CLUB. Summer has come and gone and we find ourselves now into fall. We had a summer contest which was based on percentages of weight loss, meeting attendance and exercise. This was in competion with other chapters and we do not know the final winner yet. Our miles for June were 171.5, July 233.75 and August 124. Best loser for June was Muriel and July was Marilyn. Congratulations! We had a Homecoming on Thursday morning September 16 which was a real success. There were six members and eight visitors present. Helen welcomed everyone then played a taped message from TOPS president, Betty Domenoe. A singsong was followed by a humerous skit by Carol and Julie. Marina had a nice display about the exchange program and a contest which was won by Audrey. Edna said a few words about TOPS and read a poem. We closed our get together with coffee and visiting.

And all too often we accept without any thanks or praise The gifts God sends as blessings each day in many ways. And so at this Thanksgiving Time we offer up a prayer To thank you, God, for giving us a tot more than our share.'. First, thankyou for the little things that often come our way, The things we take for granted but don't mention when we pray, The unexpected courtesy the thoughtful, kindly deed. A hand reached out to help us in time of sudden need. Oh, make us more aware, dear God, of little daily graces That come to us with "sweet surprise" from never-drearned-of places. Then, thank you for the "miracles" we are much too blind to see, And give us new awareness of our many gifts from Thee, And help us to remember that the Key to Life and Living Is to make each prayer a Prayer of Thanks and everyday Thanksgiving. Helen Steiner RiceCounty Councillors Comments Grant Lana For those of you who were wanting dust control products from A.R.M., there won’t be any this year. The company, A.R.M., had so many delays due to wet weather that they decided it is too late in the year now. So we hope next year that they can come to our county first. 842 is getting a seal coat put on, and will probably be done by the time this paper comes out. This will toughen up the surface of the road and seal all holes and cracks, thus keeping the road bed dry and prevent the surface from breaking up. We have had all our gravel trucks operating as much as possible, but the weather isn’t helping much. The crew work on Saturdays when the weather permits them to. it appears to me- that not all the roads will be gravelled this year. Your council does not want to buy another truck and trailer as they cost about a $100,000 for the complete unit. Also another driver would be needed. Hauling from the Brown Pit to east of Queenstown is a long haul and not many miles can be done in a day. What we need is a gravel pit north east of Milo. Our older gravel trucks have about 300,000 KM on them now. They are kept in good repair and we hope to keep them for a few years yet. This type of truck costs about $80,000 but their life span should more than justify the high cost. The new belly dump trailer we bought last time has a much better closing system than the older ones we have. This new style prevents the jaws from leaking gravel out the bottom when they are loaded. We hope to replace one or two of our older belly dumps with the newer style next year. The county dirt crew as well as CEE GEE, our contractor, are having a lot of trouble with the wet weater. Much time and effort is lost when the road and work area are so wet they have to be worked over to try to dry them out. I believe we will not complete our road work that we had planned for 1993. It now appears the compressed school week will go after the semester break in Februrary. There may not be a lot of county dollars saved at first but over all the money saved does add up. If all the parents involved do their travelling on Fridays as they say they will, things should run pretty smoothly, The School Board and the rest of the county schools will be watching the results of this test period. If I was a student I sure would be in favour of this. Mrs. Forestell and the Milo Group have done a lot of work to get this short week going. We have hired a new maintenance supervisor as Mel Marshall is retired as of September 15. Our new maintenance man is a licensed electrician so he will be able to do electrical work and save us from hirinq an outside electrician. We have had trouble with the Provincial inspector over this as we don’t have an electrician on staff. At the last school baord meeting there was some discussion about the county busing “private school" students on county buses. This helps us with our 85% bus loading factor but there are now a large number of these students. I personally am opposed to this and I will be talking at the next meeting to try and get some sort of a charge per student. I don’t see how else they can get to their school and I think most of the alternatives are almost nil. We run a pretty good public system and I don’t feel we should be supplementing a private system in any way. *■*•** *★■*■★■*■*★* * ★ ★ RURAL INITIATIVES MEETING Sept. 22/93 Old business discussed: Swimming: was not as successful as last year but the Champion Pool was great to go to.

Forestell Welcome back! Milo Community School staff and students are looking forward to an exciting and challenging year of education. We hope to involve the community and the parents in our year in a meaningful and productive way. "Research shows th-at parent involvement increases student achievement . eighteen new studies place the conclusion well beyond doubt. parents can make a critical difference.” A big topic of conversation in the school community has been the Compressed School Week. Several informative meetings have been held with parents and interested community members. The parent response wil be presented to the board at the October 18, meeting. We look forward to working with you in the coming year! The Community School Advisory Committee met at the end of August and from the many objectives in the charter, selected four goals to work on this year: 1. To improve the volunteer program 2. To focus on community service 3. To develop a sense of pride and belonging 4. To improve communication © © © © DID YOU HEAR --- about a fellow by the name of Sonny,who usually wears his bottom dentures in his shirt pocket 'til meal time or company calls,lost them out in the wheat field this fall?

I *•»» naMangHnna ffli—w*^,**> DAY Thanksgiving Day in Canada used to be celebrated on the last Monday in October. However, in 1957 the Canadian government proclaimed the second Monday in October for the holiday. Thanksgiving Day is a day set aside for people to give thanks with feasting and prayer for the blessings they may have received during the year. The first Thanksgiving Days were harvest festivals, or days for thanking God for plentiful crops. For this reason the holiday still takes place in the fall after the crops have been gathered. For thousands of years people in many lands held harvest festivals. The Canadian and American Thanksgiving Day prpbably grew out of the harvest-home celebrations of England. In Canada and the U.S.A. the day is usually a family day,celebrated with big dinners and reunions. It is also a time for serious religious thinking, church services and prayer. In the U.S.A. Thanksgiving Day is celebrated as a legal federal holiday on the fourth Thursday in November. ^ titi ^Vn C-jihi mm v - Vi «. I'”*".FUNDING ALLOCATION FOR MILO FROM : G.RO.W.

We stayed with my supervisor's Aunt Luba and Uncle Nick. They live in an apartment much like mine. The only surprise there - they don't use tea towels to dry dishes. They rinse them, sort of, and put them in the cupboard to drip dry. The cutlery goes in the drawer wet. They have a washing machine and dryer which means they are rich by most standards. This was also demonstrated by the fact that they had an apartment large enough to house such conveniences. We went to the? local market there. It was huge but not unlike the markets in Moscow. They do have a few local Kazakhian "delicacies" like horse milk (called koomis) and horse meat. Fred thinks horse milk is wonderful stuff so I decided to be brave and try some. Yuck, yuck, GROSS! I only had a sip of Fred's second batch, which he said wasn't as good as the first cup. Never- -theless, I'm sure even good horse milk couldn't be that much better than what I had to make me desire a second try. The country around Almata is beautiful. It is hear the Tenshun mountain range which divides Kazakhstan from China. We drove up through the foothills to the base of the mountains one afternoon and saw some interesting and beautiful sights. The mountains have much more top soil than the Rockies and!consequently are lush and green with vegetation and wild flowers. The Kazakhians are by nature herdsmen and some evidence of this was seen in these mountains. They erect their style of tent which is called a "itrt". It is sort of a combination of an igloo(in shape) and a teepee (in structure). While at the mountains we had a meal of local shishkebabs - made with lamb and barbecued on open fires. They were quite delicious - although I always have to discipline myself not to think about the sanitation aspect of this kind of food, and trust that the prayers we pray over the food will kill anything harmful. I declined a drink of koomis this time. After Almata we proceeded a bit north and a long way east to Zirianovsk. It was a two| hour flight (to Ust-Kamenogorsk) and then a four hour car ride. Zirianovsk is located at the base of another mountain range, the Altai's which divide this part of Kazakhstan from Mongolia &/or China. This city is considered"the end of the road" before going over the mountains. Here again we stayed with Fred's relatives who live in an old section of the city. We drove in after dark and when I woke up the next morn- ingit was not even obvious we were in a city. Thinking about it now, it seems unreal that I actually saw and experienced this. No, it wasn't in National Geographic depicting a forgotten civilization - it was only a few weeks ago and it is real. The streets are narrow and unpaved. I saw more people, cows, horses, goats and geese on the streets than cars. The houses have no bathrooms, toilets, tubs or showers. There was a kitchen sink with taps but no water. (I think it is turned off for the summer). Toilets are outhouses with holes that you squat over, in other words, no bench with holes in it. This is quite typical of Middle East and perhaps Asia. Even the toilets at the airports we were in were holes in the floor. Instead of bath tubs or showers each home has a sauna style bath house which is a separate building in the back yard. They are built in two sections. One area is for a dressing room and the other is very hot and steamy. We had a sauna every evening about midnight. It is really quite nice but seemed very strange the first few times. Our schedule was to eat our evening meal between 9 and midnight, then have saunas and then walk back through the village to the home we were staying in. Very quaint! These are hard working people. They all have milk cows which are pastured in a community pasture and tended by owners of the cows, who take their turn once a month or so and watch the whole herd.

Tom Bateman The summer of 1948 finally arrived after many months of winter, snow, ice, wind and more snow arranged sequentially in a vicious cycle designed to drive parents crazy. My grade four teacher, Mrs. Stewart, had informed me that I had an I.Q. albeit faint. I was very excited and proud to have passed the test and registered on the I.Q. scale even though my older sister Barbara caused me some concern by insisting that my score was once beaten by a cucumber. We couldn't grow cucmbers on our farm and I had never seen one, but they didn't sound exceptionally bright to me._ The summer was as unpleasantly hot as the winter had been cold. Our facilities were spartan to say the least. Our homestead house stood on a bare hill and made a feeble attempt to brave the elements. Eight of us lived in a four room house that barely met the qualifications of househood. It would be complimentary to suggest we were poor. The alleged door of our house the wolf was at, permitted a constant flow of fresh breezes, flies and some larger things we didn't recognize. It was during my 10th summer that I decided to turn professional. My amateur career hadn't been all that successful so why fool with it. My first job was herding sheep. I was to be paid 10 cents per day and as I recall each day lasted almost 47 hours. Sheep are not usually intellectually stimulating, and in 1948 a homestead bound 10 year old found them to be a pedagogical challenge. I spent the first several hours of my professional career speculating about how I could organize the 800 sheep in my care. I even decided to share some authority with them. I would use the Biblical model that originated with Jethro and was implemented by Moses. I would give one sheep responsibility for 10 others and so on. My planning session was interrupted by a movement of sheep in the farthest part of the herd. Some of the more rebellious sheep had crawled through a fence and gone into a field of wheat. They had not even stayed around to hear my plan but had rudely left before giving me achance. I ran as fast as I could and bravely placed myself in the opening thereby demonstrating a sacrificial commitment to my duties. Tha flow of sheep became a stampede. During the next several minutes I was run over by 3,200 little sheep feet. My professional determination was ground into the dust of discouragement. I was covered by little hoof shaped bruises and my pride and committment were left in tatters. I bawled and quit. The first daysof my professional life were dismal. A has-been at age 10. My Dad had a way with kids. "Get back over there and herd those blankety blank sheep." So I herded and hated sheep. About that time, even though I was still a lowly shepherd, I became interested in being a cowboy. My Dad, who saw himself as Tom Mix and Gene Autrey combined, always had plenty of cowboy dime novels laying around. I read them while herding sheep. I was permitted to use our horse without a saddle and I began to fantasize about wonderful cattle round-ups and rodeos and shoot-outs which I always won. Maybe a cowboy. I began to practise doing cowboy things like staring in a steely eyed manner designed to strike fear in the heart of the one being stared at. I stared at individual sheep but they didn't have intellectual maturity or any sense of fair play so they ignored me. I practised a cowboy swagger that became a part of my regular gait. My mother asked me if I had a rash but I ignored her criticism with a steely eyed stare. Cowboys in the novels and some of the movies had the ability to walk without making any noise. That was a tough one. No matter how much I practised my silent swagger I still made noise when I moved. Well swaggering and staring were a good start. In those days, just about all cow boys smoked so that became another challenge. One that I really regretted until I quit 20 years later.

We're off to another great year in the junior high class. We have a ten year high of '38' students making up the junior grades. The Milo junior high students have lots to look forward to. The Survival Camp at Caroline has been booked for March 16 - 18. The students will be busy preparing for this outing so that all will go well once we get there. The annual ski trip to Femie has also been booked for February 16 to 18. Hopefully, we'll miss the rain this time around. On September 17th, the Milo Community School participated in the annual Terry Fox Run. We held the run on Friday afternoon so that all the students could take part. Of the 89 students attending school, 73 completed the ten kilometre course. Mr. Wilson continued his annual challenge of trying to beat him over the distance. Until this year, no junior high student has ever been successful. This year, the streak came to an end. James Red Crow beat Mr. Wilson convincingly. Mr. Wilson said that the turning point in the race came when James stopped to take off his shoes to run the last three kilometres in his 'sock' feet. Mr. Wilson said that it took all that he had to see James run like that - Wilson has this thing about running without shoes on (call him 'tender foot'). As a result of James meeting the challenge, Mr. Wilson bought him dinner from the local Milo Cafe. Way to go James!! As a community, Milo residents again raised over $3200.00 dollars. Way to go everyone - a job well done for a very worthy cause!!! Volleyball season is upon us and things are beginning to take shape. There are 12 boys trying out for the starting six positions while the girls have '18' girls out. The season begins September 25 with the Preseason tournament being held at the C.R.C. The regular season games begin the following week with games being played every Tuesday. Again this year, the Milo teams will be competing at the University of Calgary Invitational tournament. The girls play October 3rd and the boys play October 10th. Good luck teams!!! The annual County of Vulcan Cross-Country races are being held on September 29th at Arrowwood. Races are to begin at noon. The top finishers at the County Meet will then go the Carmangay on October 6 to take part in the South Zones. On November 6, the Science Center is hosting the "Science Olympics". Teams of four will compete in three events against other groups from around Alberta. We presently have one team signed up. We can, and I hope we will, send two teams. Let Mr. Wilson know by the middle of October if you are interested. The junior high has some new and returning students this year. The new students are Celia Burns, Ryan Halm, Steven Fox and Winnie Lo. The returning students are Shane Good Eagle and Crystal Doore. Welcome and have a good year!! We're lucky to have some very dedicated and hard working citizens in the junior population. Jennifer Bartsch and Leanne Holoboff are 'going the extramile' for the rest of the students. They are looking after the newly arrived pop machine. Jennifer, Leanne and Melissa Robertson have taken on the task of helping Mr. Wilson with the 'intramural' program. I'm sure that as the year progresses, these same people will be about performing even more good deeds for the students within the school. Thanks a lot girls on a job well done!! Intramurals will have a new approach to it this year. The grades five to grade nine have intramurals everyday except Thursdays. Boys play Monday and Wednesdays, while the girls play Tuesdays and Fridays. The elementary grades will be playing on Thursdays. All the students in the school have been placed on one of five teams (Bears, Cougars, Whitetails, Buffaloes and Wolves). Each team (ie. Bears) is made up of one junior high boy team, one junior high girl team and one elementary team. Team points will be calculated based on what all three 'squads' do during the year. More plans are in the making for the junior high science classes to tour the newly arrived insect show at the Science Center. The title for the display is "Backyard Monsters." It should prove to be an educational outing. The display will tie in nicely with the concepts of 'characteristics & diversity of living things' and 'interactions & the environment'. The display includes giant robotic insects, as well as one thousand live insects. We're looking at around the middle of October. The Milo Community School has the next best player to Henry "Gizmo" Williams of the Edmonton Eskimos. Her name is Lacey Holoboff. Give her a football and no one is going to catch her!! Plans are being thrown around about having monthly gatherings for the junior high grades. The idea was to have one Friday per month where students would stay in after school to take part in gym activities and possibly a bar-b-que. If any parents are interested in helping Mr. Wilson carry this out, please give him a call. The students in the Milo Community School are gearing up for ATACC's Geography Game. By computer-modem, the Milo Community School will be linked to approximately 25 schools from across Canada. The object of the game is for the Milo students to guess the locations of the other 25 schools while providing these same schools with 'clues' about Milo. The students will be involved in doing extensive researching of information using the clues provided and composing our own clues to pass along to the other schools. We already know that the other schools come from B.C., Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario and Quebec. If any parents would like to take part, let the school know! With the renovations made to the ball diamond over the summer, the students are getting a lot of use out of the ball field. The grass has provided a 'safe' playing area that we have never had before. Every recess and noonhour, the students are busy playing some activity on the new grass area.

I AM RICKY, HOW ARE YOU DOING HERE. WE ARE FINE. LAST MONTH OUR FAMILY WAS TAKING A TRIP TO HONG KONG FOR 3 WEEKS. IT WAS FUN AND VERY HOT!!! I MEAN HOT. EVERY MORNING WHEN YOU GET UP, THE TEMPERATURE WAS ALREADY 27 °C. I have been to Canada a couple of times before. Each time I came here to visit my uncle and bis family. But. this time it is different. I am going to stay here and be a Canadian. This is the biggest change in my life that had ever happened to me. because I am going to stay in a place that I am not familiar with. The first impression here is that Canada is bigger than Hong Hong. It is very nice here to have less pollution. I think that in Hilo, people are very nice and it is very quiet here. But the hardest thing for me to adjust is to communicate with people. Because my English is not very good, so every time I meet people. I do not know what to say. Everything is different in Canada, and it is all new to me. by Wendy Lo Hi! My trip to Hong Kong was a hottest trip. Rig!}t(when I went off the plane I started to get sticky. Well any ways My trip was pretty fan. The places we went were shopping malls. Water World, my grandparents's house, and more. My dad had a couple of problems. 1. He got freaked from the cockroaches. 2. He was sweating and getting hot. Well thats about it. Dennis Wong I was very excited about our trip to H.K the night before. At H.K we went to lots of placcs.lt was very crowded and hot.We went swimming, shopping and playing.Wc also went to Water World,there were lots of water slides,there were a ride,what you had to do was get a tire tube and you have to get down a slide (you have to hold each other) once you get down you fall in a big puddle you try to get down to the next puddle and you keep on going until you get to the bottom. Thats all that I can say. Anita Wong I‘ve came to Canada 3 times.but this time I'm staying here and thats the biggest problem of my life.because I don't really know how to speak English.I really miss my friends and relatives.I like Canada too.because its quiet.lots of fields.not so crowded.and noisy as Hong Hong. Winnie LoMILO COMMUNITY SCHOOL COMPRESSED SCHOOL WEEK PROPOSAL With the proposed cutbacks in funding in the educational system, the Milo Rural Initiative School Committee has looked into a Compressed School Week as a cost cutting measure. A group of 5 went to Airdrie (Meadowbrook School) to hear their proposal on this subject. The School Board is now looking at piloting this project in Milo from Feb.94 - June 95. They have asked us to present our proposal to all of the Milo parents that will be affected by this and get their input on it. To date we have given 2 presentations at the Milo Community School, one at Crowfoot School and sent home an information package to those few who weren’t able to be at any of the other presentations. A summary of the proposal is as follows: Extend the day to 4:00pm. (Each class will be 6 min. longer); there will be minor changes in the recess and noon breaks; we have a 4 day school week instead of 5. That means all weeks are 4 days. If Monday is a statutory holiday, then we go Tuesday to Friday from 8:45 to 4:00. Right now we have a short Friday and it has been proven (by Joanne going through past registers) that Friday has a significantly higher absentee rate than any other day, both for Native and non-Native students. The PD days and Parent/Teacher Interview days are put on those off Fridays giving you a consistent 4 day week. This years County calendar is very broken up with days off during the week. Also, in anticipation of this, we have incorporated those off Fridays into the ski trips this year, resulting in less instructional days missed for these kind of field trips. The total instructional hours for the year actually increase for both Jr. High and Elementary. The Compressed School Week has been done in Colorado (20 years), New Mexico, Idaho, and other States where distance is a factor. It was implemented for cost cutting measures also and they have never looked back. - Our greatest savings will be in transportation. Most of that savings is to the Alberta Government and not to our County, however we all are taxpayers, so itjs a savings to all of us. We won't know for sure what our savings will be, but we will be keeping very close records on all aspects of this proposal.Comparison of Normal and C om p r «s i«d Calendars 1994 Spring T«rm Current Count/ of Vuloan School Calendar | Monday | Tuotday |Wodr>o»da>>| Thu»day | | * Long * Short Day* Oay* February March mmm mmW& Conv»rtlon iiHHni# liiiiiiiiinu mmm SlM ijgliijiiSj jHijjijiijfj; :::::::: - mrn&k mmM illilHliSi iTljljl28i mM mmm Intorviows 3 A A 3 1 2 4 A A 3 1 1 1 1 April Editor Editor Editor Editor Editor Editor \mmm£. mmmAi js jniHniksi mmmm 1!W Plot.

Octoftest f $ tHALLOWE'EN Hallowe'en is celebrated on October 31 and means "hallowed or holy evening" because it takes place the day before All Saints Day. Many superstitions and symbols are connected with Hallowe'en. The Druids, an order of priests in ancient Gaul and Britain believed that the ghosts,spirits, fairies, witches and elves came out on this day to harm people. T/p-ey thought the cat was sacred and believed that cats had once been human, but were changed as a punishment for evil deeds. Prom these Drdid beliefs comes the present day use of witches, ghosts and cats in Hallowe'en festivities. In the 700's the Roman Catholic Church named November 1 as All Saints Day. The old pagan customs and the Christian feast were combined in to the Hallowe'en festival. In early times in North America Hallowe'en was an occasion for playing harmless pranks. However, in later years these pranks became not so harmless and often damaged property. Many communities now stop this action by holding Hallowe'en parades, community gatherings and parties, which provide fun, in place of pranks for children of all ages. HECTIC HARVEST We did a little fixing On our engines and our brakes, Our swathers and our combines Are as good as we can make. Then a day dawned bright And we said alright! Let's get busy at the harvest The weather could change tonight! So we went to the field And the wives took out the meals And the harvest went real smooth For a week or two. Then we got real tired And a little cranky tog Cause the air conditioning failed Or the combine blew a shoe. The trucker lost his shovel And someone lost their teeth And we all would feel much better If we didn't have this grief But we'll keep right on a truckin 'Til this harvest is in the bin Then we all can take a holiday Until the cows come in.1W Gosh- &y g-ramt Lieetfu Campaign JT Ioill Be A CoLts fieibA'i Before X W6«k.
