Riverboat
Days hosts
science show

The highlight of summer in
Terrace begins tomorrow night
with a vintage car display and an
open house at city hall, a square
dancing demonstration at
Skeena Mail, and fireworks on
the north end of Ferry Island.
After that, it’s four. more days
of summer celebration and fun
— atime to let your hair down
and experience the carnival-like
atmosphere of Riverboat Days.

‘Now in its sixth year, River-
boat Days offers something for
everyone: the Kiddies’ Karnival,
barbecues, native displays, the

parade, Timberland Horse
Show, Music in the Park, the
Paddle Wheel Tavern, boat
races, sporting events, and this
year, something new — the Esso
Science Squad. -

The Esso Science Squad
delivers an insight into our
world that’s intriguingly dif-
ferent. Have you ever watched
someone burn a 50 dollar bill or
lie on a bed of nails? How about
square soap bubbles, a levitated
bicycle wheel or a_ singing
aluminum rod? These are just a
few examples of exciting science
demonstrations to be performed
at Skeena Mall from 5 to 9 p.m.
this Friday.

activities, please turn ‘fo

To the Editor;
Re: Jorma Jyrkkanen

Mr. Jorma Jyrkkanen is the
sort of person any community
should be proud and feel for-
tunate to own as a member, His
selflessness in disregarding
financial and perhaps other con-
sequences by exposing hazar-
dous, Ministry of Forests prac-
tices last year, is an exemplary

_, jnstance of public service deserv-

ing admiration, praise, and
reward, not firing. Terrace is to
be congratulated on possessing
such a committed citizen.

Your editorial, ‘‘Flushing out

‘the best and brightest’’,(Terrace

Review, June 8, 1988) takes ap-
propriate issue with that firing.

There comes a time when the
question is not ‘‘Why are you in
trouble?” but rather ‘‘Why
aren’t you in trouble?”’ In other
words, ‘“Where was everybody
else when the time came to speak
out?’’

Henry David Thoreau wrote,
in ‘‘Civil] Disobedience’’, (1849):

“Under a government which

Credit for cleanup goes

imprisons any unjustly, the true
place for a just man is also in
prison.”’ a

By his action, Mr. Jyrkkanen
joined a select group.

In addition, Mr. Jyrkkanen’s 7
articles on environmental con-
cerns are interesting and relevant _

beyond local boundaries.

Not to be niggling, but greater
attention to English usage would
ensure his articles even, more ac-
ceptance and effectiveness.

Nevertheless, well done, Jor- .

ma!

To the Editor;

I would very much like to
thank all the children in Terrace
Parks. and Recreation Depart-
ment’s ‘Kiddies’ Korner” and
‘Fun to the. Max!” playground
programs, for the wonderful
clean-up job they did while at
Cassie Hali Elementary School.

It was Junk Jubilee Week, Ju--

ly 11-15, and all the. children

especially the pre-schoolers, dug
into the task of collecting gar-
bage around Cassie Hall School.
To help get into the spirit, the
older children took part in Oscar
the Grouch impersonations!
A smelly job well done, kids!
