Eugen Juvenile fiction published by North Winds Press It’s nearly time for the or- chestra’s big performance. Just 10 minutes to go. But where is everyone, wonders the conduc- tor? First to appear is the octopus, sliding and slithering over to the piano. Then comes the fox with his flute, and the flamingo who nearly couldn’t find her clarinet. Then the pelican with his pic- colo, and the duck with his oboe. The anteater tugging at his bassoon, and the beaver who has a brand new violin. The raccoon, the kangaroo, One by one, the orchestra files in. But where is Crash? He’s the star of the show! This is .a very educational Easy Book for young children. It is also available on cassette at the library. The Magic Paintbrush by Robin Muller What’s a If you’ve been in the Northern Motor Inn jately you may have noticed a new addition to the bar; a Karaoke machine. Pro- nounced care-e-ok-e (or care-ah- oh-k-ah-in Japan where it origi- nated), it was installed June 13 and is the first one to hit Ter- race. So what is it? In technical jargon — a lazer video disc player. In simplified terms — a sing-along machine. It’s hooked up to the wide-screen television 1200 Jehovah delegates converge July 12 Spokesman Dave Walthers said that over 160,000 Jehovah’s Witnesses from across Canada will be converging on 23 cities - during July and August for their annual district convention.

No ad- vance bookings required. Juvenile fiction published by Doubleday Canada Nib, a poor orphan boy, has only one wish — to paint pic- tures so real people will think they are alive. His wish comes true when he rescues an old man from a gang of thieves. In exchange for his kindness, the old man gives Nib a magic paintbrush. At first Nib is delighted with | his gift. Everything he paints comes to life. But then a greedy king learns of his amazing abili- ty; he takes Nib hostage and - demands he paint pictures only for him. When Nib refuses he is thrown into the dungeon, but he manages to escape and travels far across the kingdom. But the ‘farther he travels, the more he becomes aware of the cruelty and ugliness in the world. With a heavy heart, Nib returns home. Once again he is captured by the king, only this time Nib must outwit the king for good. In a final confrontation, the old _ Man’s prophesy comes true in a startling way! A ‘first’ - courtesy limo Since January of this year the Northern Motor Inn has been offering a new service to its customers — courtesy limousine service Friday and Saturday nights from 8 p.m. until ap- proximately 3 a.m. There is no charge for the ride (the only service of its kind in the Northwest), and driver Ken Alger will take customers wherever they want to go, within reason. He’s dropped people off as far away as Usk and Mount Layton Hot Springs. The service is open to anyone at the hotel who needs a ride, whether it is to go home or to go uptown. The bus holds 10 passengers, but riders don’t have to wait for a full busload to use it. Alger, who has driven cab off and on since 1946, has approxi- mately 70 to 90 customers per weekend. He says 99 percent of his customers are ‘‘really nice people’’. He makes sure everyone gets a ride, even if it means he has to work a bit later than usual. All a customer has to do to get a ride is to ask one of the bartenders for a ticket; give the .ticket to Alger and he’ll go im- mediately. And yes, the driver will accept tips! karaoke machine? set; alazer disc is then put in the machine and a song is played. The words to the song are played across the TV screen in bold let- ters for you to read while a video (appropriate to the song) is played in the background. Now for the fun part. There are two mikes, one of which is a remote mike. Depending on how brave you are, you can either sit at your table or go up front... and sing along with Karaoke. But don’t worry if you think you may sound like a frog croaking inside a tin bucket. The machine has special components that can alter the pitch of the music around you, change the timing, add echo, make your voice louder or softer, and just about whatever else it takes to turn you into an instant success. There are over 500 songs to choose from. They range from hits of the 50’s on up to the 80’s — standard/Broadway hits, Christmas songs, nursery rhymes and UK hits. Something for everyone. A final schedule hasn’t been worked out yet, but the machine will definitely be operating each Sunday from 8 p.m. to mid- night, So the next time you feel in the mood to croon a few bars of your favorite tune, or are plan- ning something like a birthday party, trot on down to the Northern Motor Inn and sing along with Karaoke. It’s a great way to have some fun! PeVeeSroereorerrrrrooes Soo ot 2 aaa oo. . i NORTH PP onthers : soUTH = MOTOR WES =INN= } WEST...
