"More than just a pretty face..." A former Newtonville Public School student, Nadine Stapleton was very pleased to accept an invitation invitation to come back to school to talk about health and dairy farming, on February 8th. She finds being Dairy Princess extremely challenging and fulfilling. Nadine brought along.an excellent video, made on the farm where she lives. It showed the stages of milking cows to storing the milk in chilled tanks to transferring it to the, huge milk trucks. Nadine herself was in the video doing her milking chores as well. Nadine narrated the film, answering questions throughout from students. They -learned that dairy farming is hard work with the farmer and his family having early and long days. Perhaps many students thought the best part of the morning assembly was when they all had the chanced to take part in making butter. butter. Students were tickled to see butter and buttermilk appear before their eyes, and certainly were eager to try homemade spread on a treat of crackers. Everyone was grateful to the Dairy Princess for her terrific- display and cheerful disposition. 1 think the caring, enthusiasm and openness of Nadine is characteristic of the majority of our teens. Thank you. ud of all our Brownies and the absolutely absolutely terrific job Mrs. Knapp, Brown Owl Betty Formosa, and each leader does. They need and deserve our consistent and positive support. It was my pleasure to visit the pack. Thank you girls.

All welcome at the next game, this Friday, February 24. -1 was reading up a little on spring planting. Just to satisfy that 'bug' a little. As the mornings and evenings become brighter and the sunshine feels somewhat warmer, it just can't be helped. There are a number of bulbs such as mums and gladiolas that can be planted in spring for blossoming come summer. It's fun to give some thoughtful consideration consideration to our lawns and gardens early. Shrubs and trees planted in spring will add definite early bushiness for summertime. As well as greenery for winter. Canadian artist, singer Ian Tyson at Cobourg's Victoria Hall. As I have stated before there is nothing like "seeing and hearing it live." The smooth rhythmic tones throughout the magnificent Victoria Victoria Hall were coming from Calgary's Cowboy, Ian Tyson. A Canadian entertainer who has chosen to remain in Canada, giving into*his love for horses, farming and music, Ian Tyson put on a show enjoyed to thé limit bÿ all. His lyrics, his music - great! If one were to take away all the glitz and glamour from our neighbouring Américan country entertainers such as Randy Travis and the like, our own Ian Tyson would outshine them in talent, voice and deliverance. It was a wonderful show. Quite a change from the folk tunes of Ian and Sylvia of twenty years ago. Ian and Sylvia Tyson lived on Reid Road here in Newtonville for sometime. Upon their going their separate ways, Ian, out west and Sylvia to Toronto, they left approximately approximately 12 years ago now. If you can get out to see and enjoy enjoy Ian Tyson, I recommend you do it, as with many of the other fine Canadian artists in our midst. Enjoy!
