The man of the house had the privilege of the nice clean water, then all the other sons and men, then the women and finally the children. Iasi of all the babies. By then the water was so dirty you could actually loose someone in it. Hence the saying, "Don't throw the baby out with the bath water" ‘Houses had thatched roofs. Thick straw, piled high with no wood underneath. It was the only place for animals to get warm, co all the pets.dogs, cats and other small animals, mice, rats, bugs lived in the roof. When it rained it became slippery and comet,mes the animals would slip and fall off the roof. Hence the saying, “It's raining cats and dogs". ‘There was nothing to stop things from falling into the house. This posed a real problem in the bedroom where bugs and other droppings could really mess up your nice clean bed. So they found if they made beds with big posts and hung a sheet over the top, ,t addressed that problem. Hence those beautiful big 4 poster beds with canopies. The floor was uirt. Only the wealthy had aomsthing-other than dirt, hence the saying "dirt poor". The wealthy had slate floors which would get slippery in the winter when wet. So they spread thresh on the floor to help keep their footing. As the winter wore on they kept adding more thresh until when you opened the door It would all start slipping outside.' A piece of wood was placed at the entry way, hence a "thresh hold". * They cooked la Ik, kil«h,n la . klg M. Ik,I kang Ik, fire. E,„, d,y ,k,y ||, ,k, li„ ,„g * „ lh, frt.

After eating off wormy trenchers, they would get "trench mouth". ‘Bread was divided according to status. Workers got the burnt bottom of the loaf, the family got the middle, ana guesfs jul the fop, or the "upper crust”. ‘Lead cups were used to,drink ale or whiskey. The combination would sometimes knock them out for a couple of days Someone walking along the road would take them for dead and prepare them for burial. They were laid out on the kitchen table for a couple of days and the family would gather around and eat and drink and waif and see if they would wake up. Hence the custom of holding a "wake". r ‘England is old and small and they started running out of places to bury people. So, they would dig up coffins and would take their bones to a house and re-use the grave. In reopening these coffins, one out of 25 coffins were found to have scratch marks on the inside and they realized they had been burying people alive. They thought of a solution -to tie a string on their wrist and lead it through the coffin and up through the ground and fie it to a bell. Someone would have to sit out in the graveyard all night to listen for the bell. Hence on the "graveyard shift" they would know that someone was "saved by the bell or he was a "dead ringer". -Aren't we fortuiutc to be liv>inc( in the 2lot Centiirv!The Terry Fox Run 74a o«t// ^ cue cvie gectfina t6e next 4u» s. v ^ ^ cafci&z ruiu&i $61 ^wfifiedtive// *** tT*"* ***** 2000 * & _ 7<W^, Sefi *——. ^frrr v~ ~// T*a (Joruutc TKotuu* 5^9-3771 lm<* ?°* &" Ov^uUmFOX TALES gether, We Went The Distance April 12, 1980 was the beginning of a journey that would end in an amazing legacy. That was the day Ter­rance Stanley Fox, age 21, dipped his artificial leg into the Atlantic ocean and began his run across Canada to raise money and awareness about the need for cancer research. No one could have imag­ined that in the time since, one young man's vision would develop into a world wide effort to find a cure for cancer. It may seem hard to imag­ine, but as we begin the new millennium we are also celebrating the 20th Anniversary of the mara­thon of hope and the 20th Annual Terry Fox Run. The proof that Terry Fox's vi­sion is alive today is evi­denced by our fantastic 1999 run results. (Check out the back page for the 1999 Community Terry Fox Run results!) The 19th Annual Terry Fox Run represented an amaz­ing year for cancer re­search, 1.2 million people at 5,000 Run Sites in Can­ada participated in their local Terry Fox Run, raising more than 17.5 million dol­lars and averaging a 15% increase in money raised. Around the world more than 600 runs took place in 1999. Almost 60 countries participated including Ire­land, Israel, Japan, and Al­geria. These countries combined raised more than 6 million dollar^ for cancer research. In Alberta the story is equally as impressive. Close to 1.2 million dollars was raised in 172 commu­nities and 381 schools. What a truly amazing feat. There is no question that the marvelous results for 1999 are a direct result of all the fantastic volunteers who organize runs, events and teams in their compa­nies, schools and communi­ties. Thank you for "Going the Distance' to keep Terry's dream alive.

This is a Village with Vitality!!!/4GRIC0RE CUSTOMER APPRECIATION DAY This year, Agricore Milo / Queenstown held their annual Customer Appreciation Day on Thursday July 13. We had an awesome turn out for golfing this year! Fifteen teams of men and six teams of women golfers teed off at 9:00 a.m. at the Vulcan Golf Course and enjoyed a beautiful, hot day. A slight breeze and efficient refreshment carts tried to keep everyone cool (and mostly succeeded) although a few golfers sported sunburns by tournaments' end (not to mention a few thick heads the next day!). Following the tournament, supper was held at the Milo Community Hall. About 230 people enjoyed barbecued beef and all the fixings. Our special thanks go to Ian Thomson and Eugene Bushell who did a superb job again this year on the meat and the potatoes. A BIS THANKS also to Christine Egeland, Monnie Fetkenher, Maxine Deitz and Ethel Heather who all helped us to prepare and serve the meal and clean up after and to Sary Middlestead, Corey Burgess and Ian Thompson who helped us to set up tables and chairs Wednesday night. Finally we would like to thank Sheldon Webber for getting the refreshments to the hall and on ice so we could all cool down from the heat of the day. We certainly appreciate all the help - we couldn't have done it without these people. When supper finished, Galvin welcomed everyone and introduced special guests at the tournament and supper: Pete VanKasteren, Manager - Blackie and Ken Rollheiser, Producer Service Rep - Blackie. Our corporate sponsors from Aventis, BASF, Cyanamid, Dow Agro, Monsanto, Novartis, Philm Bios, Westco Fertilizer and Zeneca were also recognized for their generous cash and prize donations to this year's Customer Appreciation Day. The winners in the Tournament were announced as follows: Ladies Winners Marlys Henry Lorraine Marshall Jennifer Gore Penny Heather Ladies Runner Ups* Virginia Beckner Susan Ivers Carol Vooys Sharon Smith Men's Winners Brady Nelson Kyle Lahd Corey Burgess Shaun Umscheid Men's Runner Ups Pete Beckner Gordon Gore Warren Heather Darren Hamp, Aventis Rep *We had a 2 way tie and a chip off was held to determine the winner Men's Long Drive: Women's Long Drive: Longest Putt: Closest to the Pin: Lome Umscheid Ginger Deitz Sharleen Bushell (17' 7") Tammy Lahd (20")This year also saw the addition of some fun prize presentations, in recognition of the spirit of the day: Longest Body Roll off a Go If Cart: Best Golf Cart in a Sandtrap: Don't tell the SPCA / Meanest Golfer: Deepest Divot: Worst Drive (negative yards): Jody Burgess (courtesy of Ginger's bad driving) Doug Marks (don't tell the course marshall!)

For every 80 acres of Dupont product purchased, the producers' name was entered in the draw box. Congratulations went to Wes Deitz and Grant Lahd on winning tickets and accommodations for two to the Canadian Finals Rodeo in Edmonton this fall!
