Tom Bateman Life was simple and very basic during the 1940's in rural southern Alberta. Actually, miserable would be a more accurate adjective than basic. However, we were determined to survive from one cold, icy, snowy, windy winter to a hot, dry, windier summer and around we would go. The greatest portion of one of our quarter sections was a marsh. A creek ran through the marsh ensuring its permanency. Many species of wildlife lived in or near our marsh. Wildlife was taken for granted. We had no idea what intrinsic value meant, or cared for that matter. The value of wildlife was measured in terms of subsistence or damage. There were three categories that determined the value of every wild creature. 1. Were they good for food or fur. 2. Could they inflict any damage. 3. Neutral - neither of the above. The first category was by far the most important. Ducks, geese, sharp-tail grouse and Hungarian partridge were the food species while muskrat, weasel, mink, badger and the occasional coyote, were the furbearers. All other wildlife didn't matter. It was neither good nor bad. As I reflect back on those days now, I can still hear the symphony of our marsh in the spring or the call of thousands of tundra swans each fall, as they rested during their journey south. The real value of wildlife has revealed it self to me in many ways over the years. In 1947, however, our need was to survive and wildlife either helped, hindered or stayed out of the way. Sometimes wildlife would move from one category to another. If a mink or weasel stole a chicken or if a coyote was seen loitering around the sheep, they immediately became enemies to be destroyed, if possible. Coyotes were rare in southern Alberta because the Department of Agriculture had favored the farm community with a cure called 10-80 bait. It didn't matter that many species from other categories were impacted, it reduced and almost eliminated coyotes. Farms that produced sheep needed protection from the wily predator. Interestingly enough, domestic dogs were the terror of the sheep herds often destroying or maiming several during a single killing frenzy. My Dad announced that we could no longer kill chicken hawks because he had seen one kill and consume a mouse. Mice of course ate grain so were bad critters. The exception of course would be if he had a chicken in his talons. I never did figure out exactly what a chicken hawk was, or is, but I assumed I would know one when I saw him. In the meantime, another species category was created. Wildlife that wasn't good to eat but helped us anyway by killing bad wildlife. Without our realizing it, our education about wildlife was happening. Several of our neighbors also had marshes on their farms. Again, the Department of Agriculture came to the rescue. They counselled farmers to improve their farms by draining the marshes. They even paid the bills associated with the drainage. Most of our neighbors drained and poisoned and drained some more. It became apparent even to a 10 year old that once the marsh was drained the wildlife left. I assumed they went somewhere else. Now, I realize they probably just died! Our community kept on improving and draining and poisoning. Most of our dogs got poisined only to be replaced to be poisoned. But it was worth it because the Department of Agriculture was improving our farms. Our marsh couldn't be drained so we couldn't improve. It was kind of embarrassing to have the only farm in our community that couldn't be improved. We could hunt coyotes, trap muskrats, mink and weasels, and shoot or catch the odd badger. Skinning and preparing hides for market was confined to the long evenings - continued next page. b" . ji k. .

A warm, sunny Wednesday found them singing carols to as many in homes in the village as they could until the “visions of hot chocolate" back at the school got the best of them. The girls enjoyed the singing and hoped all who heard them also enjoyed the songs we all hear for such a short time each year. Christmas cards were made from old Christmas cards donated to the pack and if any of you would like to get your old cards out of the way the girls would be happy to receive them! A Christmas party found the girls pinning Rudolf’s nose on him in some very unusual places! Charades were played and a lovely cake made by Marianne Armstrong soon disappeared. The girls went home with a few little gifts but found themselves back in the meeting room one noonhour to cut Campbell’s soup labels - their last Good Turn before Christmas.

I hope 1994 will be better for us all. 1993 sure was a hard year for most people in the grain business. I have missed the last two issues of the Can Opener so I have a few comments to make that are a bit out dated. I am not on the school board this term as I did not feel that I had the time to give this year. (I was asked to stay on the board but did not let my name stand). There are some very serious decisions to be made and there will be a lot of special meetings to attend. These decisions will affect our young people's lives for a long time. When children's futures are being played with much thought must go into the final decision. What may look okay today may come back to haunt our school board in the future. I feel that cuts in the wrong places are not what we need, only those changes that show a real saving should be made. Also these savings have to be weighed against the way they will affect our young people's lives. Not easy to do. Anyway, I did not see where I could devote the time that it would take to participate in these meetings, and I would feel badly if I had to make some important decisions without being totally informed. I really enjoyed being on our school board, and I hope someday to have the time to serve on it again. In spite of alot of criticism I feel Premier Klein is doing the right thing generally in his cost cutting. Alberta should not have any debt and the sooner we get rid of our present one the better off we all will be. The County of Vulcan has no unsupported debt. It has no debt because over the years, good conscientious people have served as councillors. Our problems would be horrendous if we were paying 20% (?) of our tax revenue to service debt. We are truly fortunate to have had such responsible people serve on our behalf. You cant have something for nothing. It seems to me in the past some Provincial M.P.'s wanted to get elected so bad they would promise anything to anybody. We are now paying for this. There are many Provincial programs that have to be dropped no matter what. There are a lot of short sighted people in this Province who still don't want to give a little now so that we will all benefit a few years down the road. A rich Province like Alberta should never have any debt, the sooner our Premier can eliminate the debt the sooner Albertans will again enjoy the good life we have become accustomed to. As most of you have heard, the county loader was stolea I doubt if it will ever be found. Our insurance will cover about $115,000.00 of the loss. We haven't decided what to do yet so we have rented one for now. In the winter we need it to load sand and salt. We have cut our 1994 road construction down because of budget restraints. We are going to try and keep our crews working as these are mostly local boys and jobs are scarce. Our administration has come up with a balanced budget and I don't feel there will be any tax increase as far as the municipal side is concerned. For example if we end up buying a loader, some other capital purchase will probably be dropped. We will not be running three weed cutters all summer in 1994. Instead, we will have our grader men mow when they can find the time in the fall. Please remember when the grassalong the road gets tall that a cut in the summer and again in the fall costs a lot of money. In some cases, caution will be needed at some intersections but that can't be helped. We must keep our costs down too. We are still hoping that some paving will be done this summer. Also, it appears the Province is going to rebuild Highway 24 north of the comer store. It is likely some of the work will be down this fall. Most of these decisions will be made during the Provincial budget process so we should know by the end of January. I will report more in February. In my opinion the councillors of the county have to represent all the ratepayers not just a few vocal ones. Small groups that seem to want to second guess the Councillors must remember this: They are entitled to their views but I resent it when they publicly represent themselves as a county wide group. I feel the people in Division 7 have given me advice, constructive criticism and ideas that I have found make my job easier. I do not have all the answers and I don't mind suggestions and ideas from people in this Division. When something came up I like to phone several ratepayers and get some feedback. There are some rough times ahead for your County Council and School Board. If people keep back stabbing your local council it will break down the good rapport we now have around the council table. You cannot look down the road to the future if you are looking over your shoulder. I feel there is a fair bit of friction around our council table at the present time, however, there is not yet a problem. When you are getting flack from several directions at once it is hard to keep your cool. Some of the changes we will have to make may be short term and others may be here forever. Things will be different from what we are used to. For 1994 we have a contract with our CUPE local, the contract will not affect our budget adversely as we allowed for the 5% cutback. Your local Council and School Board took a 5% cut last October. So far we are the only ones but we felt we could maintain our present rate of pay for our employees for the 1994 year. Some pay cuts may come this fall. Perhaps in February I will have at least some good news to report to you. These comments are not all gloom and doom but I would rather be more optimistic about our future. Grant Lahd Division 7 jflowers & jTlak A lot of work goes Into the Can Opener, but I think it is reaJiy enjoyed by everyone. We wish all the Can Opener staff a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

CATCH^gyRoBUg^ Our December 16th trip to Chinook Centre went with only 5 passengers, 2 from Milo and 3 from Vulcan. This was not enough to rent the Vulcan Legion Van, which holds 15 passengers. We were fortunate to have Rod Armstrong drive his own Mini Van. Thank you Rod. This monthly trip to Calgary is a Rural Iniatives Project, and available to anyone who wants to go. THe cost is $20.00 return trip. Eight passengers would pay the cost of Bus rental and driver. Sometimes we have more than 8 and many times less. We try to stay above-board by having a little excess in the kitty from extra passengers, so that we can still go if we have less than 8.

It centred around two characters, Steve Urkel and Laura Winslow (played by Kale McMorris and Lacey Holoboff).They are in a library looking at books like The Flintstones, Sesame Street, and The Beverly Hillbillies. As Steve and Laura read the books, the characters appear on the stage and do a little skit or a dance. Of course, most of the skits had to do with Christmas. The play was again written by the Jr. High as an assignment. After the class had written outlines of plays in small groups, the papers were handed in and the L.A. teacher, Linda Booth, scanned them and put parts of each outline together. The play ended up being approximately 1 hour long. There were some main characters, some groups, and some pairs of characters. The Flinstone crew consisted of Wilma, Fred, Betty, Barney, Pebbles, Dino, and BamBam. They did a little skit about bone decorating a rock. Then came the Sesame Street characters. There were the favorites Big Bird, Oscar, Cookie Monster, Ernie, and Bert. They put together a little scene about the starving people in "Tin Can Alley". After those, were Tim the Tool Man Taylor and A1 Borlin (Tim's assistant) who did a little salute to the County of Vulcan Maintenance Crew. That led up to the Headliners. They acted out major events that have happened in the past year. Under the narration of “Darrel Janz" (Channel 5 News), they acted out everything from the Eskimos and the Grey Cup, to the Compressed School Week, to the Royal couple splitting up! Other skits included The Beverly Hillbillies, with Minnie Pearl, Jethro, Ellie Mae, Billy the Kid, Granny Clampett, and Jed, the French singers, Candlewalkers, a French Girl, who said some lines, a manger scene, put on by the Kindergarten, and an Alabama Lead Singer, who led the rest of the students in the song "Santa Claus, I Still Believe in You", which was the grand finale. This is the fifth play written by the Jr. High. They will hopefully be doing one next year for the community. They truly look forward to performing, as it is "the school's Christmas gift to the community."Principal’s Message K. Forestell As the calendar year draws to a close, it gives us the opportunity to reflect on our accomplishments and successes and to make plans for improvements in the new year. It is with small steps and small successes we can continue our growth as teachers, staff, parents, and students. The new year will bring many challenges as we attempt to restructure our method of delivering education with the implementation of the four-day week. As with any change there will be a period of adjustment and everyone involved will need to be understanding and patient as we experience growing pains! The five month calendar with all the school activities planned to date will be sent home in the first week of the New Year. Parents will have the opportunity to register their children for swimming lessons and ski trips early in January. The January 18th Parent/Teacher meeting will be an opportunity to discuss the expanded role of parents in the school, as financial cutbacks start to impinge on programs. In order to maintain the quality of education we have come to expect and to continue to give our students the best opportunities to have success in a changing world, the role of parents in education is becoming much more critical. Compounding our change strain will be some renovation activity in the school as some classrooms are retro-fitted with new lighting and suspended ceilings are installed. We might even see Tim and A1 on the premises! The public meeting scheduled in Milo to discuss the Notice of Motion regarding removing the grade eight and nine programs from the school is scheduled forThursday, January 20 at 7:30 p.m. This is your opportunity to participate in an interesting evening of discussion and information exchange. Please plan to attend and let other community members know about this meeting. The Milo Staff would like to thank the parents, students, and community for helping us to have a great start to our school year. We're looking forward to working with you in 1994! Happy New Year!Milo Junior High Scoop We’re in!!!!! The Milo Community School has been accepted as one of the 300 schools from across Canada (one of 30 from Alberta) to take part in the pilot project “SchooINet”. With the use of computer and modem, the students (and later on, I hope the community at large) will have access to a resource that will be simply ‘second to none’. SchooINet will provide students with - direct access to 350 scientists, engineers and advisors from around the world; 42 libraries from around the world; international databases; news information direct from the Globe and Mail (Southam News); career entry selection guide; electronic hookup to MP’s in Ottawa; correspondence with other students from around the world and other items which should bring a whole new meaning to the term education. What is SchooINet? (taken from information package) “SchooINet is a cooperative federal/provincial/territorial and industry initiative announced by the Prime Minister in August 1993. The Government of Canada has committed $1.6 million to the project beginning in 1994-95. Canada’s full-service telephone companies have invested $100,000 in the venture through the Stentor Alliance. Apple Canada Inc., Sun Microsystems of Canada Inc. The Globe and Mail and Southam News have also made significant contributions to the start-up of SchooINet. The objective of SchooINet is to enhance educational opportunities and achievements in elementary and secondary schools across Canada by electronically linking them and by making national and international education resources available to Canadian teachers and students.” With the ‘compressed’ school week coming the first of February, I can see the opportunity for the Milo students to access this resource on Fridays when the school is opened. On December 21, 1993 the junior high students took part in a Xmas party in the latter half of the afternoon. Pete Beckner volunteered the use of his 4X4 and trailer which took us out to Lake McGregor. At the lake the students went skating and played a little hockey. Mr. Lambert prepared a fire for us that provided us with warmth and a means to cook hot dogs. Brenda McMorris looked after the food and a good time was had by all. Thank you’s go out to Pete Beckner, Brenda McMorris, Mr. Lambert, Ron Marks and Ralph Auestad. Following the hayride, 21 students stayed in after school to take part in a ‘social’. Volleyball was played by all and the games were fun and competitive. Volleyball was followed by a little floor hockey and a movie. Thank you to Brenda McMorris for, again, looking after the food and dishes. The Milo Community School junior high curling team repeated as county champions again this year. They played Vulcan in the final and came out victorious. Congratulations to the following students for representing us so well: Jason Tiegen, Nathan Phillips, Jennifer Bartsch, Erin Monner, Tammy Bushell, Dennis Wong and Josh Umscheid. Look for the ‘Scoop’ next month!!Update on Recycling Trailer We have just received information that if we have a separate bin for milk jugs only, they will pay $100.00/tonne. Therefore we now have two bins for plastics. One is for plastics with the #1, #2, and #4 only. Ex.- a ketchup bottle is a #5 and therefore is not acceptable. The other plastics bin is for Milk Jugs Only. Please flatten them so we can store more of them,as they are so bulky. We now have just one bin of mixed paper, instead of the two, because we do not get paid for it, and we will get paid for the milk jugs. All 3 of our bins are for newspaper and magazines together instead of having one just newspaper alone, because GPS Recycling in Lethbridge want them to be together. Recycled newsprint requires a certain amount of the glossy paper from magazines to keep it together in processing. Everyone is doing a good job in sorting and recycling, however we still have the problem of cardboard boxes not being flattened. Please remember to flatten them as they are so bulky. Every week during one noon hour, we have a student from each grade going down and sorting goods in the trailer, and we find very little that we cannot recycle and have to put in the garbage cans. Our last load saw us make $20.70, which we were very pleased with, however we now will have to pay more for transporting the goods to Lethbridge, so we are hoping that the milk jugs will help us combat this increase. After talking to Lethbridge, they informed me that we are Number 1 as far as participation and the amount we recycle for the population that we have !! They now have 11 trailers in Southern Alberta, and there are more towns all the time interested in acquiring them. So Milo and area--Remember that we all need to do our part for the environment -- Keep up the good work!! The kids enjoy doing this service for the community. Everyone is amazed how much waste there is and they think this is a very worthwhile cause. If anyone has any questions, please call me at school 599-3817 or at home 599- 3771. Till next time.

It was wonderful to just stand there and listen to the power of aU those voices united. A special thanks goes out to Rod, Wade. Blair, Art, Blahne, Tim and Tom, who helped to move the chairs back and forth between the hall and school, and to Marilyn, Monty, Janet and Kathy who read scriptures and to Alice for sharing her gift of music with us.

Milo United ChurchMERRY CHRISTMAS ONE AND ALL December 6, 1993 Dear Friends and Family, As my first term here in Russia draws to a close, I am beginning to anticipate my visit home. God willing, I will arrive in Calgary December 20th and return to Moscow February 17, 1994. I am grateful to the Lord for His bountiful grace and mercy as He has met me in so many ways these past months. I am grateful, too, for your prayer support which was obvious to me many times and for the financial support which seemed to arrive just when I had extra expenses; To New Life Christian Fellowship who, by their sacrificial giving, provided the regular monthly support I needed, and of course, their prayers and personal support; To family who sacrificed by graciously accepting my decision to live so far away; and last but not least to ORA International who provided challenges galore and travel opportunities which extended many possibilities to experience the broader work of the mission. (And also for their patience galore with my cultural blunders, Inability to communicate and adjustments to new work and surroundings.) It is exactly one year ago that I came to Moscow to "check things out" and 10 months since I arrived back for my "long-term" beginnings. What a year I What a God! What a life! There is so much more than words can tell, so please let' me summarize on the next couple of pages the work and the experiences that have been packed into these past months. In many ways it is difficult to leave Moscow, the work and the people, even if only for two months. But that doesn't take away the joy of coming home. It is only 2 weeks and I will be hugging real live, flesh and blood Canadians. And. I will be able to understand EVERY word that is spoken. And. I will be able to drive myself where I want to go. And. most of all I can "play" with my grandchildren and talk for endless hours with my kids and frlends. I look forward to visiting with a good number of you. But lest I get too carried away with enjoying myself, I must also remember that I have some work to do. I will be speaking at some churches in the area. If you would like to know dates and times, feel free to contact me at 932-2642 - Mark's place in Cochrane will be "home base".

Milo lies about halfway between Suffield and Calgary on the Medicine Hat-Lomond-Aldersyde line of the C.P.R., and is one of the busiest, most progressive points on this branch.—-As -the crow flies it is 90' miles southeast of Calgary, 28 miles northeast of Vulcan and 22 miles straight south of Cluny, in what is known as the Snake Valley. It enjoys regular train service and is also served daily each way to Calgary by the Sunshine Bus operated by George McMorris.

Educa- example this area produced more j provjded in the two-room than 1,01)0,000 bushels of wheat. In ■ u F the village are seven elevators to handle the gfain product of the rich lands that not so long ago were the domain of the buffalo and redskins, and iater of the pioneer ranchers with their vast herds and wide ranges. A little hamlet was already started when the railway steel arrived at this point. As the new townsite was plotted a few miles southwest of the hamlet, the latter moved, bag and baggage and houses as well, and the beginning of the present Milo was made. Previous to the coming of the first homesteaders in 1905, the surrounding land was ranching country. The ranchers leased great tracts of land and herded their cattle on the open range. Those were the days of the cowboys and the big round-ups. Cattle would be dipped, branded and sorted on the Circle Ranch west of Queenstown. Gleichen and Bassano were then the shipping points. Names of prominent early ranchers called to mind are those of O. H. O'Tott, J. J. Bartsch, W. Hill. Douglas Hardwick, "Shorty" Hardwick and W. Brown. The Brown family came here from Scotland in 1889 and their ranch house became the centre of community life and hospitality. Mr. and Mrs. Brown used to entertain the waddies in good old-fashioned style and Slick- up Lake, southeast of Milo, received its name from the fact that here the boys were wont to stop and “slick-up” for the parties. public and high school of which H. Allergoth is principal. Some 50 pupils are in attendance. The school's business affairs are carefully handled by the school board, of which N. M. St. Peter is chairman and C. D. Sutton secretary. The whole district is dotted with schools of the very best type. It has been the custom to hold each year a School Fair at which the pupils of the different schools compete in sports, work of the year, physical drill, songs and speeches. Other excellent services provided at Milo are the 24-hour telephone service in charge of E. Beechman and the postoffice presided over by C. W. Watt The duties of deputy- sheriff and the issuing of various licences are handled by W. Bruce Marsden. It is worthy of note that the Milo branch of the Bank of Nova Scotia, managed by H. B. Wilson is now the only bank on the line between Arrowwood and Medicine Hat, so serves a long stretch of country and adds materially to the business importance of Milo. Another factor contributing to the same end is the fact that this town is the business seat of the M.D. of Marquis, with office in charge of secretary J. K. McLean. Visitors to town find comfortable modern accommodation in the Hilo hotel, built by F. Sutton In 1925, and now operated by C. D. Sutton. Milo town and district folks are not oblivious to the benefit of sport3 j and pastimes. The principal forms of sport enjoyed are tennis, hockey and skating, badminton and ball games. HOMESTEADS REPLACE EARLY WIDE RANCHES Then the homesteading began. Many* landscekcrs came from the neighboring and distant points, filed on claims and put up small dwellings. Gradually, too, the ranchers turned to farming so that in course of time there remained, and is still operated, only one big cattle ranch. This is the Hardwick ranch, comprising 50,000 acres, leased by Douglas Hardwick, and pasturing some 2,000 cattle. It lies a mile east of town. The cattle are shipped at Pageant, six miles from Milo. Milo was named for Milo Munroe, on whose homestead the first post office was established In 1910. The mail was brought by stage from Cluny. Shortly afterwards the first store was opened near the post office by J. J. Aagard, who then became postmaster. These advantages were appreciated by the settlers, as previously they had to go to Cluny, Gleichen or Bassano for mail and provisions. The march of events brought change and development to Milo. More and more people came in, but nothing accelerated progress so much as the coming of the iron horse in the summer of 1924, when the new townsite was laid out on land owned by Ole Olson, to which tho residents and business of the original Milo promptly moved over, as already mentioned. And didn't the new town grow! Today Milo has an up-to-date station and section house, seven elevators, two general stores, two hardwares. Sunshine Bus service to Calgary, butcher shop, lumber yard, bank, billiard hall and barber shop, drug and stationery store, harness shop, insurance agencies, three implement agencies, three oil warehouses, blacksmith, transport service, laundry, picture show, and Oddfellows’ hall. This hall, a roomy and well-furnished building, makes a fine community centre where dances, social gatherings and public meetings are held. The Oddfellows and Re- bekahs are the only fraternal bodies with lodges here. A half-mile west of town is Lake McGregor, an artificial lake used as a reservoir. It is 22 miles long and around two miles wide. The water is taken from the Bow river at Carseland, stored here and thence carried through a ditch to Vauxhall. The lake affords good pike fishing which is carried on commercially during winter, with Calgary as the chief market. On the west shore of the lake near its north end is the Municipal park of 90 acres, as yet only partially developed. Baseball and football fields have been laid out, a (ralf-mile race track built, a 9-hole golf course laid out and boat houses constructed. It is a splendid place for summer outings and picnics.

Like in the previous years, I get a lot of satisfaction from coaching those individuals who play on the team. To receive a gift makes the effort even that much more meaningful and rewarding. Thank you Leigh Vooys for picking out a really super gift. Rocky Wilson We would like to thank everyone who "dropped in" Dec. 4. We really enjoyed the visit and hope you will all come back and finish the refreshments you left behind. Also, a big thank you to the organizers. We honestly did not know we were expecting company although we became suspicious that day. You were great at keeping a secret. Thanks again.
