John McGovern was in New Liskeard Monday, along with his tame wolf Cindy, at left, and Lucky, a German shepherd. Mr. McGovern is hitchhiking from Edmonton to Ottawa. He picked the wolf up as-a puppy at Dawson Creek, and reports that the animal has aided his trip, as many curious motorists stop to ask about it. When they first met, the dog and the wolf tried to tear _~ each other to pieces, but now they are the best of friends. _ Silvertown Kiwanis Club Has Excellent Record Of Service COBALT--The Kiwanis Club of Cobalt celebrated its 35th Annivers- ary in 1960 and for each of those 35 years the Club has carried out _a full program of youth work and community service. When the Kiwanis Charter was received in 1925, Cobalt 'was a thriving mining community, with Phone North Bay GR 2-5170 for your ® CULVERT and 'DRAINAGE TILE © CONCRETE BRICK Common and Colored SAND - GRAVEL - STONE @ CHIMNEY BLOCKS Square and Round Flue CONCRETE NEEDS 'Cinder, Concrete & Haydite J.

Despite the fact that membership was reduced as the fortunes of the town ebbed, the Cobalt Kiwanis Club has been carrying on the pro- jects started in bygone years and at the same time has been meet- ing the other needs of the com- munity too, as far as possible. The year 1960 saw the Club con- tinue this work and the achieve- ments for this year cover.a wide field. Kiddies and Youth are always foremost in the work of a Kiwanis Club and in this field during the past year, the Cobalt Club expend- ed over $500.00 for the purchase of winter clothing and overboots for needy children attending the elementary . schools. Sponsorship of the Boy Scouts and Wolf Packs was continued Jas well as support of organized sports for school children. A donation was made to the Girl Guides new camp. The Annual Ki- wanis Winter Carnival and a Ki- wanis Kiddies Day at Bass Lake Were again very popular with the Youth of the Community. In the field of Education the scholarships of $100.00 per year for four years were continued 'to. grad- uates of the Cobalt High School who won this award each year. In co-operation with the Ontario Society for Crippled Children, the Easter Seal Campaign~was held again jand financial assistance was given to many crippled children who required transportation to hos- pitals, or special boots, etc. One crippled child was sent for a vaca- tion at Camp Northwood. In this field far more money was spent than was collected in the Easter Seal Campaign in Cobalt and Latchford. Other work done by the Cobalt Club in 1960 included a donation of $600.00 to the C.N.I.B. for a new building to be erected in Sud- bury for the benefit of blind people in Northern Ontario, a gift of ref- erence books to the Cobalt Public Library, and in the Spirit of Christ- mas, 32 Christmas Cheer baskets were distributed to needy families and the Kiwanis Nativity .scene was again displayed. However, of all the projects un- A822 ree : ' ] -- people in the community has been the Kiwanis Beach at Bass Lake. This project was started by Kiwan- ians of the late 1920's, who realized that the prime need of a mining town with it's hot streets and bare rocks was a beach within reason- able distance from the town. From a modest beginning, the beach was developed and improved each year until today the Kiwanis Beach-at Bass Lake receives com- pliments from all over the contin- ent. Last year a major improvement was made in the installation of flush toilets and ithe booth renov- ated both inside and out. - All cabins were redecorated and some were equipped with refriger- ators. Once again expenditures at Bass Lake far exceeded the rev- enue. In maintaining Bass Lake as a modern, free beach the Cobalt Ki- wanis Club feels that it is fulfill- ing the ideals of Kiwanians who passed this way many years ago. In reporting their achievements for 1960 the Cobalt Kiwanis Club gratefully acknowledges the sup- port and co-operation they have received from many members of the "public. Three New Songs For Brownie Pack Patsy Treen and Heather Rod- gers were the Fairy Queens for this week's meeting of the 1st Hail- eybury Brownie Pack. They learned to-sing three new rounds, "O How Lovely is the Evening', 'Fires Burning", and "Row, Row, Row Your Boat". The girls also learned a joke to tell their families in which, with the aid of a kleenex, they play the part of, first, a villian, second, a heroine, and then, a hero. Linda Bryson led the Pack in a game of "Simon Says". Inspection was followed by the usual test work.
