Revered CfirdoiA, Crflkvch Ripples in a Pond Last month, and for the next few months, I am sharing some articles Rose was kind enough to pass on to me, and I think they are worthwhile to share with you. A wise man was walking through the fields one day when a young disciple, with a troubled look on his face, approached'him. "On such a beautiful day, it must be difficult to stay so serious," the wise man said. "Is it? I hadn't noticed," the young man said, turning to look around and notice his surroundings. His eyes scanned the landscape, but nothing seemed to register as his mind was elsewhere. "Join me, if you like". The wise man walked to the edge of a still pond and invited the young man to sit with him. "Now, find a small stone," the wise man instructed, "and throw it in the pond". The young man grabbed a pebble and threw it as far as he could. "Tell me what you see," the wise man asked. Straining his eyes not to miss a single detail, the man looked at the water's surface. "I see ripples." "And where did the ripples come from?" "From the pebble I threw in the pond." "Now reach your hand into the water and stop the ripples," the wise man said. Not understanding, the young man obeyed and put a hand in the water as a ripple neared, only to cause more ripples. The young man was baffled. "Were you able to stop the ripples with your hand?" the wise man asked. "No, of course not." "Could you have stopped the ripples, then?" "No. I only caused moreTipples." "Well then, what if you had stopped the pebble from entering the water to begin with?" The wise man smiled. "The next time you are unhappy with life, try to catch the stone before it hits the water. Do not spend time trying to undo what you have done. Rather, change what you are going to do before you do it." The wise man said as he looked kindly upon the young man. "But, how will I know what I am going to do before I do it?" "Take up the responsibility for living your life. If you're working with a doctor to treat an illness, ask the doctor to help you understand what caused the illness to begin with. Do not just try to treat the ripples after the fact. Keep asking questions." "You may not know the answers right now, but if you ask the right questions, then you shall discover the answers." "But what are the right questions?" "There are no wrong questions, only unasked ones. We must ask, for without asking, we cannot receive answers. But it is your responsibility to ask. No one else can do that for you."

Courage and Perseverance of Milo Youth Saves Two From Icy Depths, Lake McGregor (From Our Own Correspondent) Milo, March 10. — Salvage operations, conducted from the surface of the ice covered Lake McGregor, aroused the interest of your correspondent recently and his investigation brought to further light a story of more than human passing appeal. Curiosity was first stirred by the actions of a group of workers who had achieved a new feat of reclamation. A narrow slot had been sawn across the lake surface and through the opening a chain was being used to tow some heavy burden along the under surface of the ice. When the party finally attained the shore of the lake, the mystery was revealed. A large opening was cut in the ice and a Ford car on its side was hauled forth, somewhat bedraggled looking after its curious submarine exploit. Since then it has been overhauled and is now in running order again, but the story of its immersion is worth the telling. On a Sunday afternoon, in the latter part of December, three Milo youths went out for a little recreation. George Howell, Bill Beckner and Robert Thomas were their names and their ages were all in the neighborhood of sixteen. The Ford truck which they took along with them was the property of the Howell household but whether it was taken upon this excursion with the full consent of its owner is not stated. Bill Beckner was in the driver’s seat and the other two lads - when the surface of Lake McGregor was reached - were coasting behind the truck, on their skates. Lake McGregor is a stretch of water - or ice - of over twenty miles in length, near the Lomond-Arrowwood railroad. In places its depth is as great as thirty feet. Coasting on the smooth surface proved to be highly enjoyable and sport continued until an ominous cracking sound was heard. At this warning, Beckner, slowed up and the skaters swerved aside out of the dangerous vicinity. As was known later, the party had driven upon a thinly coated area where open water had been in evidence until a few days before this time. • ! Car Sinks As the car came to rest the cracking sound was repeated. George Howell, probably concerned about the safety of the Ford, skated towards it but before he reached it, the car had suddenly begun to sink through the surface. Howell, in his excitement, did not retreat, but jumped upon the trunk of the car as it was going down. Thomas, who had remained at a safe distance, now approached and could see no sign of either car or of his companions for water, and the other two boys had gone down with it. Fortunately, they both rose to the surface after a brief space, and now began a struggle in the icy water. Thomas, by digging the sharp heels of his skates in the ice and by lying down, was able to reach Beckner and help him out upon the slippery edge. By this time, Howell had sunk several times and was in great distress. With Beckner sitting upon his heels, Thomas now stretched out further into the pool and managed to grab his friend and with a narrow escape from being dragged in, he succeeded in saving a second life. .Continued on next page State of Collapse It was about three miles to the nearest house and the story of the struggle that had now to be made is an adventure in itself. Howell was in a state of collapse and the only first aid that his companions were able to render was to stand him for a few seconds upon his head. After that they carried him the quarter mile or more to the shores of the lake. By this time their skate boots were frozen solid and they stopped to cut them from their feet. The rest of the journey was finally accomplished and no ill effects ensued from their exposure to the icy waters. The rescue of the Ford truck was postponed for a few weeks but finally - after a little fishing - it, too, was hooked and towed to the shore in the novel manner already described Chinook Arch, Regional Library System Canada Newspaper Archive 1872-2016 The Lethbridge Herald, Saturday, July 20,1929.

As she laid her pet on the table, the vet pulled out his stethoscope and listened to the bird's chest. After a moment or two, the vet shook his head and sadly said, "I'm sorry, your duck, Cuddles, has passed away." The distressed woman wailed, "Are you sure?" "Yes, I am sure. Your duck is dead," replied the vet. "How can you be so sure?" she protested. "I mean you haven't done any testing on him or anything. He might just be in a coma or something." The vet rolled his eyes, turned around and left the room. A few minutes later he returned with a cat. The cat jumped on the table and also delicately sniffed the bird from head to foot. The cat sat back on its haunches, shook its head, meowed softly and strolled out of the room. He returned a few minutes later with a black Labrador Retriever. As the duck's owner looked on in amazement, the dog stood on his hind legs, put his front paws on the examination-table and sniffed the duck from top to bottom. The dog then looked dp at the vet with sad eyes and shook his head. The vet patted the dog on the head and took it out of the room. When the vet returned, he looked at the woman and said, 'Tm sorry, but as I said, this is most definitely, 100% certifiably, a dead duck." The vet turned to his computer terminal, hit a few keys and produced a bill, which he handed to the woman. The duck's owner, still in shock, took the bill. The woman looked at the bill, and cried, "$150 just to tell me my duck is dead?" The vet shrugged, "I'm sorry. If you had just taken my word for it, the bill would have been *20, but with the Cat Scan and the Lab Report, it's now5150."

May ISSUE 2017 CELEBRATE WITH US! Thanks to sponsorship from the Milo School Foundation, our grade 4-9 girls were inspired to be the best they can be at the Fearlessly Girl Summit held on April 12. The delicious Beef-on-a Bun lunch prepared by Mrs. Sherstabetoff and helpers was very well received by students, staff and many Milo School parents. YUM! Principal Message: School Planning & Growth! I honestly can not believe it is already MAY! That leaves us with two months of school left and it is going to fly by us in whirlwind! April brought us a delicious beef on a bun lunch, extra books to read at home, guest presentations, a girls slumber party, and green pancakes for St. Patrick’s Day. We had a blast! We also focused on being balanced and being a good communicator for our IB Profile Traits. Actually, being a good communicator requires balance. © For May our IB Profile Trait is RISK TAKER. Often this sounds the most interesting and fun, but actually, it can be quite difficult. Being a good risk taker involves taking risks in learning, trying new ways of seeing information, ideas and circumstances, and it involves stepping out of your comfort zone to challenge yourself in positive ways. This could be standing up for something that is right in a positive way and trying to make a difference, performing in front of others, or facing our fears. Finally, it involves belief in yourself, and believing in the potential and abilities of others. How can we take risks in our learning to help us become better communicators and leaders equipped with courage? As the end of the year approaches, we are starting to reflect upon the year and begin planning our for next year. Our 2017-18 School Calendar is complete, with many thanks to the collaboration of staff and parents. There have been many victories to celebrate this year and there is much excitement still ahead for us! Here's a look at our school goals and some highlights of our growth this year: 1. LITERACY We continue to find creative ways to improving reading and writing skills across all grades. Our recent data for reading from the fall to spring increased by 20%! We have enhanced our literacy programs and the library, developed technology and leadership literacy within students, and have celebrated with coding, contests and Family Literacy Day. 2. QUALITY We continue to push learning towards quality as we enhance hpw we assess student work, involve them in choices, develop their skill level and build student self-awareness and responsibility. Classroom expectations have increased and learning supports have strengthened. Our IB skills in inquiry, reflection, work ethic and global awareness are flourishing! 3. SAFE & CARING We continue to grow closer as a school family as we learn more about one another, support one another and celebrate our diversity. Through monthly parent questions, school events, guest presentations, leadership jobs, student-led assemblies, star team challenges, slumber parties, increased services and supports, staff training, food/fun Fridays, our snack program, our Winter Student Dinner and teaching mindfulness. there is much to be proud of.

March Parent Question of the Month Sneak Peek: What is something your child has been excited about this past month at school? Did you know. May 2017 • Milo School • www. mlloschool.ca Greetings from Mr. Munton -gr. 4-6, & 7-9 math It was an active April in class 456. In Language Arts, we looked at the proper use of prefixes, suffixes and conjunctions. We learned about writing that informs the reader as each student had a chance to write about something they know a lot about. During our inquiry (Social/Science) time, all grades worked on engineering and streamlining their own paper airplanes to try and come up with a design that would fly the furthest. Students had a chance to measure distances traveled in the gym and then make adaptations to their aircraft. All students displayed a keen interest in this project and some planes flew over 15 metres! In Math, the Grade 7s and 8s have been working through fraction operations, including adding and subtracting fractions with common denominators and multiplying and dividing fractions with whole numbers. While Grade 9 students were introduced to polynomials, how they are defined and how they are added and subtracted. In Grades 5-9 Explore It, students have been presenting their leadership projects to the class. Each student chose someone they felt displayed the traits of a leader and researched the individual. The project also included student's own interpretations of what leadership means to them. It was very interesting to see the descriptions of leadership. A special thanks to all students over the past month for their hard work and dedication in all classes. There has been a tremendous improvement since the beginning of the school year and I have been very pleased to see it! ~Mr. Munton DO YOU LIKE CASINOS?

No matter what my problem is, it's the fault of someone other than myself, and the appropriate response is to find that person and kill him with my bare hands. 2. To be truly attractive, a woman must wear high heels and an outfit so tight you can tell whether she's cold or not from across the room. 3. There are two kinds of women in the world: The type that want to go to bed with you, and the type want to kill you. Both types are physically attrac­tive and under 25 years old. 4. If I rudely argue with my boss in front of my co­workers, not only won't he fire me, but he will gain a profound respect for me. 5. If I can find an important enough mission, it will supercede my obligations to perform household chores, bathe, and call the next day. 6. If I go without bathing, swear a lot, and treat women badly, they will adore me. 7. If a woman tries to clean a bullet wound and I curse in pain, she will fall in love with me. 8. Anyone who isn't a cop, mercenary soldier, and/or private investigator is a sissy. 9. If I have a prolonged fist-fight with another guy and neither of us dies, we will become best friends. 10. My arch-enemy will bear an uncanny resem­blance in age and bearing to my father, and he will make it clear that he has gained a deep re­spect for me before I kill him with my bare hands. 11. When I shoot people, they will die quickly and cleanly, and I will never be arrested or troubled by their widowed wife and children. When people shoot me, however, I will at most receive a 'flesh wound,' which will be tended to by a beautiful woman. 12. Nuclear weapons will never go off because something will always happen about three seconds before one does to stop it from exploding. 13. If an aged scientist is involved in any way, he will have a beautiful daughter who will gaze at me adoringly. 14. If royalty is involved, it will include a beautiful princess who will gaze at me adoringly. 15. If I have a kid partner, he will be tightly-muscled, clean-cut, and gaze at me adoringly. 16. If I am asked to compete against a world cham­pion at any sport or game of any type, I will win. This will infuriate my opponent, who will then try to kill me. 17. If my opponent has a side-kick or henchman, he will never have a sensible name like Rick, or Steve. 18. Beautiful women will frequently furrow their brows with concern and ask, "When's the last time you got any sleep?"

These buildings were donated to the villages for use as a municipal offices, which was a very generous donation. Each building is equipped with two working vaults which will be put to good use preserving municipal records: No major renovations are anticipating beyond painting and carpeting, all of which will be funded with provincial capital grant dollars. The extra space will be very welcome by village administration, and hopefully encourage residents to take a greater interest in the affairs of their municipality. On April 26th, the Village of Milo hosted an open house between 4 and 6 PM to provide an opportunity for residents and ratepayers to hear about the new land use bylaw that will be considered by the Village Council. Our planner, Diane Horvath, was on hand to receive comments and questions from those who attended, and we had a steady flow of people. Should you have any questions about this new bylaw, feel free to contact myself or the village office. We plan to give the bylaw First Reading at the regular meeting in May. Under the Municipal Government Act of Alberta, a public hearing must be held prior to Second Reading, which we anticipate will occur in either June or July.

Regular Meeting of Village of Milo Council on Tuesday, March 21, 2017 Page 2CranioSacral Therapy is now available CranioSacral Therapy (CST) is a “light touch” approach that involves gently first assessing the tension in soft tissues surrounding the major components of your central nervous system - primarily the head, spine and pelvic areas. Then I use proven body manipulation techniques to relieve stress from those areas, beginning with a touch as light as the weight of a nickel. Sessions are generally deeply relaxing, and create feelings of warmth or gentle pulsing in areas being worked by the therapist. Chronic pain, particularly in the neck and back, and the related discomfort and life stress issues chronic pain causes, can be safely relieved. Think of this as a massage designed for your nervous system instead of muscle tissue. Please ask questions about CST! I welcome the opportunity to share the benefits of this therapy system with you.

These check-ups are a service to parents, providing access to experts in early childhood development, including speech and language pathologists, right in their own communities. These free, one-hour sessions are a great way for par-ents/ guardians to confirm which skills their children are well on their way to mastering and which areas require more support. These check-ups help determine the support and resources incoming early learning and kindergarten students will need this fall. They also give children an opportunity to visit the school, meet the teacher, and to have a positive hour of fun activity, and alleviate some of the anxiety that might come when school starts. Early learning and kindergarten programs give children a positive, fun foundation to ensure readiness for Grade 1.
