Nearly the end ot another
month already and 1 had

better try for at least two of |

these letters each month,
especially wi en I am so far
behind with personal
correspondence. ;
. This past week we enjoyed
-a visit from Tracy Skead, 8
former neighbour of ours at

Nass Camp. Tracy’s present
home is a log cabin that he

happened to build for us on -

the property near Aiyansh.
d Vie :

He an «bad previous
e ence 8
buildin on Mount Hiedley

and Cabin” Mountains,
during the time when both
were working on the con-
servation of the mountain
goats in those areas. We

never did find out the name .

of the other mountain 50
gave it the cabin nickname.
While here, Tracy and Vic
went hunting with John
Meyers and the Jatter
managed to shoot a nice
buck. Tracy was able to get
himself one a few days later
though, so packed home
enough meat to do him for
several months ahead, John
Meyers worked for Twin
River Timber Ltd. at one
time too, then came to work
for MacMillan Bleedel. He
did leave here ta work al
Gold River for awhile, but
bas now returned to the
Islands and is once again
down at Justkatla. John had
a second plane damaged not
long ago when a sudden,
unexpected wind storm
upended the plane and
eaused damage to a wing.
Arrangements were being
made for Tracy to tow the
plane for John, from Prince
upert to Vanderhoof.
However at this time I am
not quite sure as to whether
this has been done yet.
Earlier this month my
sister managed to come up
for a four day change of
scene. She was  ac-
companied by our mutual
cousin, Gordon Scott, owner
of Gordon C, Scott Antiques
at 1035 Fort Street in Vic-
toria, B.C. The last time
Gordon managed to visit us
we were living at Kitimat,
B.C. so it had been almost
twenty years since -he had
made a trip up north.
During their visit we had a
full schedule of activities.
One of the new teachers
from Edmonton, who had
“eromised to’ have: her
usband cook usa Chinese
dinner when he came out for
his visit, It so happened the
Chinese dinner was
scheduled for the Friday
when .the visitors arrived
from Victoria. While Hon
Wong was busy cooking, his
wife Lucy and I made Won
Tons. Must say I seemed to
have trouble folding these
‘little things properly, but
they were so good eating
later that it was certainly
well worth the extra effort.
We enjoyed them deep fried.
These particular Won Tons
were filled with a mixture of
chopped chicken and crab.
The little things the mixture
goes into can be purchased

already made, and they are ”

put

together with raw egg

ter being folded-over

properly. ‘These were served -

fore the full meal.

On the Saturday evening
we all went to the Volunteer
Firemen’s Annual Ball. This
was the first large dance to
be held in the new Com-
munity Hall, Musie for this
occasion was not quite as

started’ up again, he could
not contend any longer with

the loud: vibrations. I am ~

told that many: people who

the loud music of today.

_ When Vic ‘left, .I
remembered I had a ey to
the house, so decided to
hurry after him with. the
key. In hurrying I got past
the dancers alright, then

Letter from Masset,
~ Queen Charlottes

-By Elvira Bryant

viier damage has no doubt
been to my back, and since I
have now been feeling some
aches and pains in that area,
Iam debating about goin
out for chiropractic, ad-
justments, It seems there is
always something.

Eventually our weather
came back to the Misty
Islands patterns, but that
was after we had so many
lovely days of sunshine so
we must nat complain, The
frost was heavy enough to
finish off the dahlias that
had not been blooming for
very many weeks.

The “Pepsi people’’
decided this year to sponsor
a badminton tournament for
high school pupils and for
awhile it looked as though
we might he sending, five
girls down. However, the
sum of fifty dollars does not
go far towards the expenses

at would be encountered.
Also it did not seem as
though there was enough
time for the girls to prac-
tice. So October 22 went by
without anyone attending
from the Charlottes.
Whether the Mackenzie
area won by default then, I
do not know, but the ‘Pepsi
people” did intend to pay all
of the expenses for
whomever won the B.C.
championship and went on
to play in Alberta. :

‘omorrow the pupils of
G.M. Dawson will be having
a day off, as the. staff is
getting together to discuss.
making a change in our
esent Semester system.

y the next letter there
should be more to say about
this matter. Apparently it
will mean many hours of
planning .and will entail
many more hours of
arranging new courses. The
hope seems to be that more
elective choices will be the
result. .

Yesterday the Woodes

garbage can. When it was

nice the previous weekend I
anted some of the spring
Ibs, but so far IT am

waiting for the larger order

of bulbs from back east.

Somehow this particular

package must have come in

on every delay that was
sponsored by the postal
workers.

We were all quite shocked
to read in the latest Herald
about Ron Jephson's sudden
death. Our sympathy is
extended to his wife and
family, but adjusting to such
a loss takes much time.
Anyone who suffers such a
loss would be well rewarded
by reading Franklin Loehr's
“Diary after Death’. Rev.
Loehr apparently wrote this
book for such a purpose.

A different slant on
reincarnation is given in
Susy Smith’s “The Book of
James”. James does state
that “Truly successful
marriages on earth usually
continue after death". Two
interesting jtems from this
book that Intrigued me were
as follows: “The child
should learn to say each
morning as soon as he opens
his eyes: ‘Today I will be
happy all day long.’ Nothing

CUTLERY CARE

Most professional chefa
and cooks wauld probably .
agree that “a good knife" is
the most important piece of
equipment in a kitchen—it
can make just about any
cooking chore easier, To keep
your knives and cutlery in
good working order, follow
these tips from the experts:

¢@ Sharpen knives regu-
larly. Dui knives can be more
hazardous. than sharp ones
even when used properly.

® Store knives in slotted ar
magnetic racks to protect their
points and edges. Do nat atore

blades can become nicked or
