papered the new bedroom put rug down age the outhouse upright lo use just look better and generally got everything nil spiff ted up You can the state I was in when I set out to meet the train In Evonsburg one night To begin with I never been further north of Drayton and wasn t familiar with the highway Also It was rapidly getting dark This was in April After allowing myself plenty of time to gel lost which 1 do I covered the miles lo the station with tunc to spare then tried lo relax for half an hour When ft 10 arrived and the 1 began retting in case I was in or the wrong low or some that line But thin a light flickered on the paper I wan trying read and fhe people in he cars around smiling and excited so I poured out The light bee stronger and the train rumbled into the A few people got off wercmel hugged and swept iy lot he cart The Iriln started up and out What about Una Pictures rushed through my mind of me being at the wrong place on the wrong or of being asleep Ihtn reason look over If those folk vere on the day eoaches be quite distance ick and I think the CN would unload someone way downlhe tracks 111 the and make them heft their own luggage the station Sure enough the train stopped again and there was That was the beginning of a day and a half or nonstop talking By time worsted at the Edmonton airport I was hoarse There was so much to talk about Hi La is a fulltime writer and once we got on the of writing wecouldnt get stopped We walked back in the bush and talked trudged around the fields describing people We sal up at night and worked out begin ningsand endings he most memorable hour was spent on top of Buck Mountain reminiscing It was a glorious sunny day After climbing the long wind rail pausing regularly lo catch our breath we lay in the grass on lop the wind lei ling stories about the family Too soon it was time to leave for the airport but we sal a few minutes longer not want ing to move and spoil the great feeling of peace We might have a visit ogam when and if and I drive east this fall lean foresee much of the same tic rush going on on my part but nowhere can I visualize a serene morning like that one spent on top Buck Lain This summer had a special visit in It too One Friday phoned from the trail ride office in Banff and suggested I meet him in west of Rocky Mountain House for lunch on Saturday That was a great idea as I seen him only once since the middle of June Again there was a mad scramble making a picnic Wnd j Thomson As you may have gathered from past columns visitors to our new home are a big event for us This spring was static when an aunt going to Toronto from Vancouver decided to go by way of Buck Creek Although we lived only miles apart in Ontario Rita and I seldom saw each other so when she phoned loaoy Id like to fwcntintoarealtizzy lunch of all kinds or favorite goodies All that remained to do in the morning was pack the cooler pile all mail into a bag with a new pair of Jeans gas up the truck and takeoff I got as far as the driveway then spotted masses of huge raspberries hanging from the bushes and thought thai the picnic couldnt bo com ptetc without a pail of those Af ler 15 minutes of picking I was back in the truck and out on the road till I reached at noon arrived much later Just when I began wondering what to do If he didn show up stopped for a nap on he way Guiding must wear a person We headed for a camping spot and swapped news over the devilled eggs I heard all about the trail ride staff riders trails and horses Then It was my turn to relate good and bad Son David had the tractor going for awhile and worked Ihc south field up older son Jim foot had an axle dropped on it but broken we didn know if Ihc black steers foot was belter for there were loo many black steers roam over too many acres to knowwhichwaswhlch And there are bears in abundance this year with the rumor going around that park bears who cause trouble in the parks are rapped and set free in this area Drayton judo club is break in new mats Buck Creek is starting construction on a new hall and David was pulled off the scat of a neigh old horsedrawn mower pulled by a tractor and broke his leg much to body dismay By then the raspberries had disappeared and we stretched out by the river and slept in the afternoon sun It t till it came time to leave that I brought myself around to the news that had been on my mind all day Tansy cat was killed on the road last week say anything but he knew how much I loved that cat She was the only re maining one of the five animals we brought with us from Ontario Gord just held me close and I thought this is what I miss most when he away the shoulder to lean on when things go wrong Then we climbed into the trucks he turned west I headed east

council feel will lead to less scrutiny of departmental estimates Traditionally all depart mental estimates went before the finance and ad ministration committee and then on to council for scrutiny and recommendations for further cuts Under the policy approved by council Wednesday each committee will have its own budget to consider and the first draft of the overall wont be approved until staff estimates have gone be fore the various committees Proponents of the change say the new procedure will streamline the budget Some recalled having to have three drafts of the bulky budget prepared before a final budget was approved last year It was pointed out by chairman of the Budget Review Committee Ron Planche that the procedure was a costly one The motion passed easily on a 13 vote with most of the opposition coming from members of the Adminlstra tion Commiltee One member of that com Mayor Harry Barrett was critical of the committee for even recommending such a motion He said the problem council had last year stemmed from the way the treasurer pre sented the budget He said the treasurer had shown false revenues and had managed to confuse the whole issue Now the committee comes in with airy fairy motions The whole reason for the committee was the false sense of security councillors were given during the budget sessions this year When il was over we had a per cent Increase Barrel said Public Works Chairmar Jack change in the budget pro cedure He said he on Committee should leave the nitty gritty of budget cutting to the lar committees involved but should be involved in selling guidelines and keeping an eye on budget procedures and budgeLs prepared by bodies outside the direct control the region There is a real job to be done in that way It is bad no one Is doing it now Following the meeting Chairman Morrow told reporters the Administration Committee had the authority to set overall guide lines for committees to follow Mary Munro a member of the Administration Com had said earlier that she would recommend the abolition of the tion Committee if the financial aspect was removed from the commiltee She was absent from the meeting Wednesday Devalue dollar The devaluation of the Canadian dollar will cost Hal ton Region about this year Regional Treasurer Don Parmer old the Region al Council last week In an interview Mr Farmer explained thai the region issued debentures for about on the American money market He pointed out that when the debentures were issued the interest on the American market was substantially lower than he Canadian market If the premium on US funds continues at its current rate it will eat up everything Ihe region had hoped to save in going to the American market with the debenture During he meeting Wednesday Burlington Coun Vera
