The score, however is really no indication of the relative strength of the two teams as it was a hardâ€"fought contest all the way througk. ‘â€" and according to the visâ€" itors, the victors " just got the breaks".

A large number of members and friends gaâ€" thered at the chalet last Friday evenâ€" ing ‘for a delightful social and skiing evening topped by a most qumptious spaghetti dinner. The ‘classes of ski instruction are well under way. Classes were held Saturday and Sunday afternoons unâ€" der the direct supervision of the President., Mr. Ernie Cashmore. The instructors report good interest, exâ€" cellent snow conditions and mainy avid beginners. The wheels of progress are really turning in Iroquois Falls these days. To list a few of the improvements we‘ll go at it this way. n ie Wheels of Progress Turn in Iroquois Falls The town has purchased a T.6. Gasâ€" oline Tractor which is doing yeoman work on the roads this winter. The tractor is equipped with a bullâ€"dozer blade and this is the main reason that our streets are in such fine shape. It is also the reason that many citizens raise their hands in exasperation when they discover that the tractor has <filâ€" led in their sidewalks during the course of its rounds. Over a mile of snow fences have been erected about town this year. These fences are helping to lay the snow before it strikes the roadways â€" and they are also cutting off â€"many shortâ€"cuts that the younger citizens use on their way to school!!!! Police Chief Olaveson‘s departâ€" ment also has come into an improveâ€" ment. in that Constable Dan Macâ€" Donald has been employed as night policeman and assistant to the chief. The new outdoor skating rink is going great guns. JIt is exceptionally popular with the younger people of # 2 22 our town. There is public skating sessions /very day plus hockey pracâ€" tices every Wednesday and Saturday mornings for the future pro. players. The rink is fully equipped with heatâ€" ed dressing rooms, toilets etc. and its ice surface is fifty feet by one hundâ€" red feet. Mr. Bert Bond is the careâ€" taker and he reports much work in keeping the ic in first class shape and in keeping the many tag games to ‘a minimum. o mRA t one exception the same town fathers will be holding forth again this year. Mayor P. J. Redmond heads the Counâ€" cil consisting of Counciliors, H. Reed, R. H. Powers, P. Clark, D. St. James, T. Cybolisky and P. W. Burton. â€"Mr Burton is the new councillor .this year but he is not exactly new to the Council Chambers as he has served many years past in this capacity. We don‘t exactly know if this item can be considered as an improvement or not â€" but have you seen some of the new calendars? Some of them are really works of art while some them are ‘only just works !! .. 5 s The Town Council is planning even more improvements. The Statuory meeting was scheduled for 11.00 a.m. on January 5th in the Council Chamâ€" bers. The Mayor â€"and Countcil were all elected by acclamation and with I wish to thank you sincerely on behalf of myself Council for honoring us by being present at our Inau this morning. s ECl P n e o o t s e o is hn Y PL Qfil“ this mollilillg. .( * A uk This is a proud and happy occasion for me and I realize fully the responsibility that rests on my shoulders. I shall do my very best to merit the confidence of the citizens of this Town who have elected me to this high office. As you all know, I served the Town for seven years as a Councillor, angd it was always my intention to present myself as a candidate for Mayor, when my own business was Organâ€" ised to the pont where I could devote efficient time to civic affairs. I am indeed honored to be the Mayor of the largest Town in Canada. I have known each member of this Council over a period of years, and am happy to have them associated with me and I believe every single member will work sincerely an(| wholeâ€" lheartedly in the best interests of the Town. _ We shall probably have arguments and difféer on what is best at times. but that is to be expected and all for the best F4 CC CC 1 wartbina and sincerely for the best at times. but tUTN@tl IS t DC 6 0 ce €l12 as long as we are all working honestly and sincerely for the common good. s I believe we can argue and thresh out any issue and work out a solution without leaving hard feelings or bitterness. No two people see eye to eye at all times. This is going to be a busy year and every Councillor will have to work hard cn the committees to wh‘ch he is appointed. During the war years it was impossible to purchase new equipment or supplies, ang the last two years have not been miuch better in that respect. This year, I hope, will be differâ€" ent. We will have a very large programme to carry out. I hope it will be possible for every one of us to work in harmony ‘and in a spirit of genuine coâ€"operation with the Town staff and employees. 4 m 2 e i _ C O uxt 0_ 2o n as L VY AA Z2 CE AA _ B mb ..

The wall of the house was also slightly damâ€" aged. The driver was exonerated â€" of all blame and it is our information that the damage done will be fully t compensated. Santa Claus Writes Letter Mr. T. C. Dobson, the Town Clerk has a letter from Santa Claus. The letter was receiVed during the Christâ€" mas holiday and is clearly postâ€" marked Santa Claus, Indianna. Mr. Dobson makes a hobby of collecting such letters (or "covers". as they are known) and has letters from Bombay, India, Hong Kong, China and many other famous cities and towns. Mr. Dobson, under duress from this writ= er, finally admitted, that his collection Four Elk Released The Department of Lands and Forâ€" ests in conjunction with the local Fish and Game Protective Associaâ€" tion, released four elk in the game preserve between Troquois Falls and Twin Falls last week. Three cows and a bull were released and a sideâ€" light to the story is that the crew who transported> the animals had to practically chase a very inquisitve fox away before they could complete the job.
