Speaks on housing plan

By HUGH POWER THE REGULAR monthly meeting of the Happy Gang Centre on Jan. 11 opened with a presentation by Dieter Kuntz on another housing proposal at Terra- ceview Lodge. oe

This project is being undertaken by the Terrace and Area Health Council.

It is planned to begin in the spring of this year. The units will be operated under a renal leasing agreement only. The plan is to begin with 25 units with the option of building more in the future, There will be a heated, covered access to Terraceview Lodge.

The bedrooms will be large enough to handle a queen sized bed, or two single beds. [t will be a two-storey building with an elevator.

Mr. Kuntz hopes to have more detailed infor- mation in a couple of months. They are looking for a name, so if you have

_any suggestions, please

Little Eli is 2000's /ast baby

WITH ALL THE fanfare surrounding the New Year's Baby, it’s refreshing to learn that the Mills Memorial Hospital Auxiliary realizes that last is certainly not the

least. ;

The auxiliary recently presented a gift to Roy and Sherry Warren, proud parents of Eli Roy Garrett Warren. He’s only a few weeks old, but he’s already earned an
