Bill will be collecting the trailer court rent from now on for the new R/V park. Mayor Umscheid said the Master Plan for the recreation board is being sent back to Lethbridge with a few recommendations.

All are welcome. a1'5 Jour Cl j' The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude of life. Attitude, to me is more important than fact. It is more important than the past, than education, money, than circumstance, than ' failure, than success, and more than what other people think of, say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness, or skill. It will make or break a company... a church... a home. The remarkable thing, is we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past.. .we canno-t change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We can not change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it, and'so it is with you. We are in charge of our attitude. - by C.

"Hotcakes to High Stakes: The Chuckwagon Story” by Doug Nelson We have just received this book. It is well illustrated and a very enjoyable read. Memberships Most patron's membership fees are due in September. Fees are: $ 7.00/family $ 3.50/single adult or $ 1.00/student All members will receive a card so they can use any other library in the Chinook Arch System at no extra charge, (including any in the County of Vulcan, Lethbridge Public Library, etc.) -see below Chinook Arch Update With tiie announcement of a lotteries grant for the purchase of a building, Chinook Arch has finally been given enough Provincial support to expand to be providing the services it should. It has been a two year wait, but already about 2/3 of the holdings of the member libraries are on computer. What is most important to members of Milo Library is getting hooked up by computer to the System Catalog so we can browse through and borrow other libraries' books, and having a delivery van begin its route so we can receive and return materials right from Milo. This should be in place before 1994. Other than the building grant, the funding of Chinook .Arch Regional Library' System will not represent any new government money. Chinook Arch completed the picture in that basically the whole province (other than Calgary' and Edmonton) is operating under systems. The money available for these libraries will be spread out to include Chinook Arch. library Hours (note the addition ofYhursday evening) Tuesdays 9:00am-l 1:30am Thursdays 9:30am-12:30am 1:30pm- 4:00pm 7:00pm- 8:30pm Phone: 599-3850 -The phone is there to be used.

MILO COMMUNITY SCHOOL RECYCLING TRAILER Congratulations to the community on how well the recycling program is going.! We have had the trailer emptied once over the summer. I was told that they were very impressed with how clean everything was and how well sorted the goods were. Our trailer stayed here; GPS Recycling brought up an empty one and replaced their bins with our full ones. The total transportation cost for this is $60.00, and we were short $6.80. Since this was a trial run, we were not charged.The main reason we were short was because our 4 newspaper bins were not completely full. Newspaper generates the most revenue, and if all 4 bins are full, we will cover our costs. Please make sure you sort out your newspaper from the mixed paper so it can go into the newspaper bin. We cannot accept plastic grocery bags. The only plastics we can receive are #1 #2 and #4. Please recycle grocery bags with your grocer or use the garbage bin provided. If the plastic containers are large and bulky, we would appreciate it if they are flattened, so they don't take up so much room. Cardboard is so bulky, that we would like everyone to please flatten them so they take up less space. We are taking clear glass only. It can be smashed as it is put into the bin. That way we cart accept more. If you ahave any further questions, please give me a call. Joanne MonnerDinosaur Country Science Camp Jim and Jana Godkin attended a special three-day Dinosaur Country Science Camp for "Matchbox Winners" in Dnunheller on August 25- 28, The camp and the science competitions are sponsored by the Science Alberta Foundation. For the science competitions, junior high students had to develop "matchbox-sized" science projects and younger students did shoebox-sized" projects. There were 325 entrants across the province and, of the 50 winners, Milo was fortunate enough to have three winners from the Grade 7 students who entered. Susan Good Eagle was also a matchbox wanner but was unable to attend the camp. Outdoor activities at camp included an "Ecozone Hike" at Morrin Bridge, hill-climbing and looking for fossils, being an archaelogisf' studying teepee rings at Thumb Hill, and a beaver dam excursion to the creek under the highway bridge. Inside activities included cleaning dinosaur fossils and mapping an archaelogical site. The activities were fun, especially with 14 new friends from all over the province. Students stayed in the dormitory at Dnunheller Composite High School and Jim and Jana say the food served was excellent. Dinosaur Country Science Camp sponsors other camps anyone can attend. There are 5 week-long camps for 5-12 year olds, 1 week- long camp for 13-16 year olds, a family weekend camp, and a special week-long camp (with a 3-day canoe trip) for 14-17 year olds.WKW
