Children in Need
Our daughter, Janet, is working at Mother Theresa’s missionary in Calcutta, India. She helps out in the Daya Dan which is the orphanage for mentally and physically handicapped children from ages 4-13. These children have been abandoned by their families because of their handicaps.
Some of these children spend their days in a crib because they cannot move. The others have a small courtyard to play in or on the roof of the building. I spoke with Janet and asked what we could possibly send to make life a little bit better for these children. If anyone could help me out that would be great. She gave a few suggestions. They have a cassette player and Janet thought it would be nice to have some relaxing music to play to the children when they are massaging them. The children in the cribs could use crib mobiles so they have something to look. Cloth books would be great since the kids tend to put everything in their mouths and are hard on regular books. Although it is India it does get cool so warm cardigans would be much appreciated. The only thing to remember is that the clothes must be easy to put on as some of the kids have very stiff arms and legs and it makes it hard to dress them. One other thing Janet suggested is a jungle gym that could be collapsed right down flat. She was thinking of those cloth tunnels that have the wire in them. If anyone has any USED items (Janet doesn’t expect new) that would be wonderful. Please give me a call and I will come and pick up anything that you could donate.
Thank you so very much.

Two little birds were standing about one meter away talking to each other. An elephant sat in between the two little birds. The two little birds were still talking but they had to yell. With in 5 minutes, 3 other elephants had sat in between the two little birds. They finally got feed up and flew to a perch. The first thing the little bird said to the other little bird was, "We were worlds apart!"

SOUTHERN ALBERTA’S REGIONAL LAW FIRMCOUNCILLOR S COMMENTS
These are my opinions and do not necessarily reflect Vulcan County policy or the views of other councillors.
The municipal planning committee (read County Council) have in conjunction with our planning advisor, came up with a map showing land use restrictions surrounding lakes, rivers, streams, hamlets, villages and towns. As most communities are adjacent to rail lines they are not "square" with the world. This makes them intrude into many 1\4 sections. The rule of thumb applied to the map is: If a 1\4 is intruded onto then the next 1\4 "going out" would be included in the restricted area in order to get the full required distance.
Now it is unlikely that a confined feeding facility would be built that close to a populated area but other uses that may eventually be included or unacceptable uses may eventually be. I am thinking of cow\calf wintering grounds, background pasture land, greenhouse, and any other use that people don’t want.
If you want to look at the map at the amount of land that would be restricted along a wandering stream, such as the West Arrowwood Creek for example, the possible restrictions would be huge and involve a lot of farm steads.
I believe this is unacceptable and personally can't support the proposed scenario. I would advise anyone with property adjacent to the above mentioned areas to look the map and see if it may affect you now or in the future. I have one.
The County office renovations are more or less on schedule and the new look is starting to be visible. The mild weather has certainly been an asset to the construction crew.
The Council has passed the budget for the upcoming year and there will be no increase. I did not support the budget finally approved, as I thought we were spending too much on some projects that are proposed. I am not opposed to the projects or such but think we should proceed slowly and develop a system that work for us, and then of it does, to expand it.

My thoughts... Revered c^ordouv Crfti/tch
I told those at church some time ago that Reese came
up to me at lunch one Sunday and asked me how to
get to heaven. I was kind of dumbstruck by the
question, especially as Reese is not yet 4. I gave a
suitably glib answer, but I continued to think about it
and on the next Sunday I gave a slightly more
• definitive answer.
I have been thinking about the question on and off ever since. I suppose it takes on a
slightly different sense of urgency at 72 than it does at age 4. All the songs and
hymns that we sing Sunday by Sunday about heaven and the great reunions with
those we have loved and have gone before us. But that doesn't answer the question of
how we get to heaven. Last month, we had our usual Maundy Thursday dinner and
went on to commemorate the Last Supper of Jesus and His disciples. At that time
Jesus gave us His directions for eternal life. This is His summary of the great
Commandments. "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and love your neighbour
as yourself. On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets." If we
can do just these two things everything else will fall into place. What surer path to
Heaven can there be?
All the promises that we have received are awaiting their fulfillment. We will be
reunited with those we have loved and lost. We will, with God's help, one day reach
that eternal shore.
Whatever age we are now, we are fortunate to have lived and grown up in such a time
of medical advances that have assisted us in living this long. And we look forward to
even greater advances that will offer longer and better lives to us.
We must always remember that our time on earth is limited and we must do our part
while we are here. But this life will surely end one day and we will die. The perishable
cannot inherit the imperishable.
That is how we get to heaven.

have followed me there. - Age 29

SYNC returns: Free summer
audiobooks for teens
What is
SYNC?
SYNC is a free program for
teens 13+ that will give
away two complete audiobook
downloads every
week through July, pairing
high-interest titles with
weekly themes. It's the
perfect program to encourage
teens to read more so
they don’t end up wandering
into that most dreaded
of all places to be while
they’re on vacation - the
summer slide...
Join us on Tuesday, April
23 to learn more about the
program, including how
and why titles are chosen
and paired together, how it
works in conjunction with
the OverDrive app, why
audiobooks play an important
part in teen reading
habits.

“Quietly resting in fields all over Vulcan County are a generation of tractors that
revolutionized the amount of work that could be done in a farming day. However, they
still relegated the operator to an unpadded metal seat, at the mercy of the elements,
insects, and noise. This Massey Harris is a perfect example - strong and purpose built."

Unfortunately space limitations did not allow for a close up of
Marina Vannatta's painting of the old Milo Post Office in the
article celebrating Marina and Sonny's 65th wedding anniversary
found in this edition. We look forward to seeing it up
close and in colour! - Editorial staff.
Sonny and Marina Vannatta 65th Wedding Anniversary
Marina & (Norman) Sonny Vannatta
On June 23rd Sonny and Marina Vannatta
celebrated a truly impressive life milestone -
their 65th wedding anniversary.
Marina has created a beautiful painting of
the old Milo Post Office, and will be donating
the artwork to the Milo Library & Archives or
Milo Community Hall.
Marina & Sonny were married in Cluny by
the United Church Minister Rev. Morrison on
June 23, 1956.
Sonny was working at the time on the
road construction and they lived in a holiday
trailer which they pulled to each construction
site.
Marina & Sonny stayed in the Milo area
and worked for a farmer for a couple of years.
Then they moved to Cluny to help Marina's
Father Ben Reimche build the Cluny Hilltop
Service Station and Cafe on Highway *1. They
ran the Cafe and Sonny worked in the Garage
with Ben.
Marina remembers these as fun times
with the Cluny/Glieichen people. By that
time they had 3 children: Wanda, Larry and
Vicky.
After 5 years they decided to go back to
farming and worked for Jack Sutherland for
12 years. Sonny ran the work crew and
Marina cooked for hired help, grew a huge
garden and milked 6 cows, sometimes
running a tractor - very busy times with a
young family.
Sonny and Marina then went farming on
their own, renting land from Rose Northcott
and Marie Vinjie. They lived on Rose’s
homestead 16 miles northeast of Milo,
farming 3.5 sections of dryland with help
from family at harvest time. Both Sonny and
Marina operated the farm machinery and had
a mixed farming operation with cows, horses,
pigs, and chickens. They lived there for 31
years, enjoying, a fun and busy life with
friends and neighbors.
Back row: Ryan Lucas, Megan Lucas, April Vannatta, Larry Vannatta,
Tony Vanden Hoek, Braydon Miller, Trevor Miller
Middle row: Wendy Vannatta, Erin Hessy, Jayden Hyggen
Seated: Curtis & Preston Vannatta, Wanda Vannatta, Marina and Sonny Vannatta, Vicky Vanden Hoek
Children seated: Brynn and Beckett Lucas
Missing: Steven Vannatta, Lisa Vannatta (Spouse Jay) , Jackie Dontolewski and Lindsey Domolewski
Marina, Wanda, Vicky, Sonny & Larry
Sonny and Marina then moved to
Lethbridge but still farmed the land, living in
their trailer for the duration , travelling back
and forth to the farm.
Sonny and Marina finally retired and are
currently living at Garden View Lodge, east of
Park Place Shopping Mall. As soon as covid
restrictions pass, they would love to see you
all.
Thanks for all the Anniversary Wishes!

Commentary on Federal Bill C-10 by M.P. Martin Shields
By now you may have heard about Bill C-10. It's
the Bill that the Liberal Government says will
‘modernize’ the Broadcasting Act. What the Government
doesn't like to talk about are the implications
and powers that will be granted to the Canadian
Radio-Television Commission, or the CRTC.
When Bill C-10 inevitably becomes law thanks to
Liberal, NDP, and Bloc Quebecois collusion, Canadians’
online content will be subject to moderation
and enforced by the CRTC.
The Liberals have maintained the ruse that Bill C-
10 is nothing more than a legal mandate to level
the playing field between foreign big tech giants
like Google and Facebook. That they pay their
share in Canadian tax just as Canadian companies
are subject to. However, Canadians are not convinced,
nor will they be fooled. The costs will be
passed down to the consumer and will not be
transparent.
By volume alone, Bill C-10 has been the issue I
have received the most correspondence on. In the
survey from my May e-newsletter (to which you
should subscribe if you haven’t already!) a whopping
93% of respondents said that government
should NOT regulate posts on social media like
Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc.
Then comes the infamous 4.1 clause. The clause
that protected Canadians’ content online was inexplicably
stricken from the bill by the aforementioned
gang of three. This clause would have ensured
that, no matter the provisions put into effect by the
other clauses in C-10, the content (or ‘programs')
that Canadians would post online would not be
subject to CRTC regulation. With this clause removed,
the CRTC will have the power to compel
social media sites to remove/modify/replace online
content posted by everyday Canadians at its sole
behest. No explanation, no criteria, no guidelines.
Just because the CRTC can.
The Minister of Canadian Heritage has gone on
record saying that the CRTC 'has no interest' in
regulating individual Canadians' content. However,
that argument doesn't stand up to scrutiny either.
Despite the apparent disinterest in regulating content,
that doesn’t mean it’s not possible. This opens
up a can of worms and the potential for a snowballing
effect. Regulation of content will set a precedent
defined by the unelected, unaccountable body
of the CRTC which operates at arm

November is the month for remembering. 2014 is a special anniversary year. In August, 1914, the world plunged in to the 'war to end all wars'. As we are all too aware, from our experiences of the past 100 years, it was really the start to most of the major conflicts of the 20th century. We don't need to rehash history and try to place blame. None of that will bring honour to a generation of young men who were killed, maimed or wounded on the battlefields of Europe 1914 -1918.
In the carnage of the war, there are many examples of individual courage and compassion, countered by the inhumane ways devised to kill humanity. The use of mustard gas in warfare for the first time must rank as one of the most heinous of all time. 100,000 people died and 1,000,000 more were affected by the gassing. The gas did not restrict itself to soldiers, it killed anyone in its path. In the 4 year span of the war, the total casualties were 36 million (16 million died, 20 million wounded).
So why on earth would we want remember such a horrible event in the history of the world?
“Thosewho cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat That is why we must continue to remember, not only for Remembrance Day, when we pay tribute to those who, at the call of King & Country, laid down their lives for the peace and freedom that we enjoy today, but so that such a conflict may never again take place on earth ever again. "Only the dead have seen the end of war."2
For those millions of maimed and wounded that had to try to return to civilian life following the war's end, there was not even the inadequate assistance given to our present day veterans. Post traumatic stress disorder was not acknowledged, although shell shocked would have been the term used then. Soldiers bear the deepest wounds and scars of war."2 Anyone who took part in the fighting, in any capacity, and lived would have had emotion scars that would never heal. "War is hell. 4 And the Great War was possibly the most hellish of all wars.
That is why we must remember it, so that never again should humanity be subject to such carnage. "Lest we forget, Lest we forget."5

Fire Chief Byron Thompson and Vulcan County Fire Marshall Stuart Larson made a surprise visit to our school for Fire Prevention Week. They initiated the fire alarm and observed us as we made our way out of the school. The elementary students watched a video and talked with Byron and Stuart about the importance of smoke detectors.
Thanks to the Milo School Foundation we were able to have the Science in Motion program travel to our school. Our fantastic presenter Jen worked with the different grades doing hands on science experiments, we even had a mini-planetarium set up in the gym, the 7/8 class learned the science behind
roller coasters, the grade 9 students made a pickle glow and the 1/2/3 class made ice cream with liquid nitrogen.The Milo School Foundation also provided funding to have author David A. Poulsen bring his writing workshops to our school. The students really enjoyed the humorous way he shared his love for writing and the creative process.
The volleyball team practiced and played games and finished their season by hosting a one day volleyball tournament. The tournament was a huge success with teams from Arrowwood, Champion, Brant, and Carmangay schools competing. Thanks to Mealane Deitz for organizing the concession and to Leanne Bertschy for helping work the concession.
The junior high held elections for student council and we are happy to see such an enthusiastic group take on the leadership of our student body. The student union is now starting the Mom’s Pantry Fundraiser, students will be coming around with order forms or they are available on our website as well. Miloschool.ca
Our student council worked hard planning fun activities for our Halloween Celebration at the Milo School. Thanks to Barb and Ian Godkin for the donation of pumpkins for our students to carve into Jack-o’-lanterns.
We have already started preparations for our Remembrance Day Program which will be held in the Milo School gym on November 6 at 10:30, everyone is welcome.

VILLAGE OF
MILO
ALBERTA
Dear Residents & Ratepayers,
The contractor that was hired to complete the roadwork on 1st and 2nd Street West in Arrowwood will be returning within a matter of days to complete the project. We are hopeful that driveway access will be corrected back to a normal state of affairs, that proper grades and drainage swales will be installed before drainage becomes a significant issue. The Village of Arrowwood can appreciate the frustration that this delay has caused and it has tried to work with residents to accommodate all access concerns that required an immediate solution.
It appears that the Villages of Arrowwood and Milo have found a contractor to undertake some final infrastructure work for 2014. In Arrowwood, water and sewer services needs to be extended to the new Arrowwood Co-op development, along with some ditch grading and the installation of a new fire hydrant. In Milo, a water leak, a fire hydrant repair and some minor roadwork needs to be undertaken.
As mentioned last month, the workshop “Finding Agreement” was hosted by Arrowwood and Milo and considered by all who attended to be highly worthwhile. Although designed for municipal officials, it is available for other community groups and organizations. The facilitator, Barbara McNeil, works for the Alberta Energy Regulator but has a longstanding relationship with Alberta Municipal Affairs. She has over twenty years experience as a mediator across a wide range of issues, including senior trainer in the University of Calgary’s Conflict Resolution Program, with experience as a member of the Municipal Government Board and Federal Farm Debt Review Board. Arrowwood and Milo were happy to have participants from both villages, Vulcan County, Town of Vulcan, Village of Carmangay, and diverse range of community associations.
On October 2nd, the Village of Milo filed notice of appeal with Vulcan County and the Municipal Government Board (MGB) under section 690 of the Municipal Government Act. This appeal concerns a dispute with Vulcan County over a proposed residential subdivision development that it deems could have a detrimental impact on the village absent inter-municipal co-operation. As legislated, the MGB will open a hearing for this appeal within 60 days of notice being filed.
Sincerely,
Christopher Northcott Chief Administrative OfficerVILLAGE OF

MILO HOTEL MAKEOVER
The historic Milo Hotel is getting a facelift.
Part of the project is a new veranda-like roof over the sidewalk on
the west side (at left), and new siding is being installed.
The siding is a rust brown wood look that is really attractive.
Owners Robert and Darlene Phillips have been busy.
The building was shored up a few years ago by fixing the basement walls
and construction of a basement room for craft nights, parties, and meetings.

My thoughts... Rex/erervol Crauvch
Christmas Is...
Christmas is a gift of love wrapped in human flesh and tied
securely with the strong promises of God.
Christmas is angelic music in the form of a carol or oratorio with a celestial descant.
Christmas is "Glory to God", "good will to man", and "Joy to the world".
Christmas is "Peace on earth" for those who accept it and live in unity with God's will.
Christmas is a man on duty tending sheep, or machine, who senses the upward call
and stops to worship.
Christmas is a tall green tree which serves as festive altar for any household which
discovers the true meaning behind it all.
• i
Christmas is a ringing bell calling a distraught humanity to gladness and hope.
*
Christmas is a glowing hearth gently placed in the winter of man's loneliness.
Christmas is an -altar to which man can bring his heartache for comfort, his lostness
for guidance, and his sin for forgiveness.
Christmas is the sparkle of anticipation and the steady light of faith in the eyes of a
little child as he hears the old, old story.
Christmas is the shining star of hope in the sky of all mankind.
Christmas is more than words can tell, for it is a matter for the heart to receive,
believe, and understand.
Author unknown
From our house to your house, to all those you love, comes my Christmas blessing
that the Christ Child will enter your heart and bless you all the days of your life.

April Fool’s Day is the first day of April.
In the English-speaking countries men, women and children play silly but harmless jokes on April Fool’s Day. The victim is called an ‘April Fool’.
The observance originated in France after the adoption of a reformed calendar by Charles IX in 1564. Up to that time, the New Year celebration began March 21 and ended April 1. When New Years Day was changed to January 1, some people still celebrated it in April, these people became known as ‘April Fools’. The custom of fooling friends and relatives became popular in France and spread to other countries. The victim in France is called an ‘April Fish’, and in Scotland, an ‘April gowk’.Milo

"I'm proud of you," said the husband.
The wife complained, "What did you say? You know I can't hear you without my hearing aid. "

That"s all right," she nodded. "I'm tired of you, too."

A COOKIE AND A KISS
A house should have a cookie jar For when it's half past three And children hurry home from school As hungry as can be
There's nothing quite so splendid In filling children up as spicy, fluffy ginger cakes And sweet milk in a cup.
A house should have a mother Waiting with a hug No matter what a boy brings home a puppy or a bug.
For children only loiter When the bells ring to dismiss If no one's home to greet them
We scheme and toil and save;
Then squander wealth In search of health And all we get's a grave.
We live and boast of what we own We die and only get a stone.

Fishing is the least objectionable way of doing nothing.
Remember when on Saturday, the old square tub came in?
We warmed the water on the stove, in pails of shiny tin.
The Bath
In winter we had ice and snow, in spring we had the slough;
We strained it in an old worn sock.
No polliwogs came through.
Bank up the stove,
then clear the room,
the cleanest one went first.
My dad was always last to bathe, he said his dirt was worst.
The water soft as silky rain, old lye soap did the job.
We all came out just squeaky clean, that square tub served a mob.
No lye soap now, no polliwogs,
Our baths they say are batter.
Our waters hot, on tap no less, new soaps now make it better.
We scratch and itch, have allergies, forever using lotions.
Bath daily, yes and oftener, use lots of oils and potions,
It s better now, it has to be.
There’s only one small rub. low come I scratch and itch so much, since I left that old square tub?

If it’s made of the leftover stew That was made of the leftover lamb, Plus a leftover turnip or two Combined with some leftover ham And something you can't quite peg,
But it seems to be leftover sole,
And it's spotted with hard-boiled egg, My boy, that's a casserole!

HOST FAMILY PROGRAM
The Wheat Country Special Needs Society is starting up a new program called the "Host Family". It is a Government funded support service for families that provides temporary relief for parents of handicapped children.
The purpose of the program is to enable families to take a break from the responsibilities of caring for a child with a disability.
This service is in response to the need for a planned break by parents whose children require a high level of parental support due to medical, developmental or behavioral difficulties. Parents will have the opportunity to have the child stay elsewhere for a short period of time in the care of someone in whom they have confidence.
Ihe period of time the child or teenager stays in the "Host Families" home is dependent on their availability and the time commitments are flexible. The individual child that the "Host Family" is matched with is also determined by the family's need for relief and whether time required is consistent with what the "Host Family" is able to offer. Time varies from individual to individual and "Host Family" to "Host Family".
If you are interested and have any questions or want to fill out an application to become a "Host Family", please contact Leanne at the Wheat Country Special Needs Society office, 485-2186.

A PIRST RESPONDER COULD BE ASSISTING YOU IN MINUTES
A first responder is a volunteer trained in basic first aid and C.P.R. and are located within all communities in the county. The idea of a first responder network is to reduce the time a victim must wait for medical help.
The Vulcan and District Ambulance Service and the County of Vulcan Fire Chiefs are currently working to establish a first responders network within the county.

MBS The Milo Can Opener
Just across a road from Milo you can find all sorts of evidence of our economy. When I
first moved here as a city boy, I can’t tell you the number of times I looked at something
and asked “What is that, and what’s the thing on the back?” Or the front, or the side, or
what it was pulling. Now, after more than a decade, I know most of those answers, and
carry a satisfying respect for what they are, what they cost, and the skills and hard work
of the men and women who operate them,

The Dangers of Public WiFi:
Important Do’s and Don’ts
Restaurants and cafes are open for dine-in. Business travel is resuming.
Remote workers are ready to stretch their legs and venture outside. Whether
on a plane or seated al fresco, more people are working on the go again. And
to get work done between boarding passes and breadsticks, they're
connecting to public WiFi. But are they aware of the dangers of public WiFi?
Is it safe for employees to use open WiFi? And if you do find yourself logging
on to a new network, what can you do to secure your and your employer’s
data while you work?
Do use password-protected WiFi
A secured WiFi connection that requires a password to use is safer than
public, unsecured WiFi. It may be more convenient to connect to an open
network instantly. But a private network hosted by a cafe or hotel eliminates
the risk of a hacker offering free WiFi to lure in cyber victims. So, always
check if there is a private WiFi network, and ask for the password.
Don’t send sensitive data in cleartext
Attackers can set up man-in-the-middle attacks or other methods of cyber
espionage on public WiFi. To reduce risk, avoid handling or sending sensitive
data whenever possible. That means steering clear of financial data, Pll
(Personal Identifiable Information), credentials and passcodes, and any
restricted or confidential information until you're back on a secured network.
Do use a VPN
A virtual private network, or VPN, allows you to establish a secure,
protected connection to a corporate network. Even if you’re on public WiFi,
the VPN provides an extra layer of security and makes it more difficult for
cybercriminals to snoop. Many businesses have a VPN for employee use, but
you can also download one yourself. With the amount of work and
entertainment happening online, a VPN is now almost as basic as anti-virus
protection.
Don’t auto-connect to public WiFi
Auto-connecting to WiFi can feel convenient. An instant connection
wherever you go! But, it comes with hidden dangers, so turn off auto-connect
for both WiFi and Bluetooth. Then, each time you’re in a new location, you
can intentionally choose which network you want to use.
Do connect with HTTPS
HTTP and HTTPS are similar protocols that display web data on your
device. (You can see what you are using by looking at the beginning text in
the address box at the top of your Internet browser.) But, there’s one crucial
difference: HTTPS (S for Secure) is a more secure, more advanced version.
It keeps passwords private and is a safer connection so that other
confidential information stays, well, confidential. So, when you are on public
WiFi, check if the website you're using is HTTPS. If it isn't, wait until you’re
back on a secured, private network before logging in or sending any data to
that website.
Do use a password manager and SSO (Single Secure
Sign-on)
Passwords are so mundane that we forget how critical they are to our
online security. Unfortunately, public WiFi can expose us to attacks that allow
cybercriminals to steal passwords. That's why it's essential to use a different
password on every single website. A password manager simplifies the
creation and management of strong passwords for all of your online
accounts.
Don’t neglect device security
Security at the individual device level is essential, too. Keep software, in
particular Internet browsers, and apps up-to-date. Updates have important
security and bug fixes, so apply an update when one is available. Also, run
anti malware software to spot malicious activity on your device. Don’t click
links or open attachments from people you don’t know or seem out of
character. Remember that links in apps like Facebook are not automatically
safe - far from it in fact. And if you think you've spotted some unusual activity,
investigate right away, and get help if you're not sure what you’re dealing
with.
With a few simple precautions, you can safely and conveniently work or
entertain yourself while on the go, even when public WiFi is the only
connection available. Get a password manager to start beefing up your
password security and use our steps above to work safely from anywhere.

Exciting Changes are Coming
to the Library
This will be my last newsletter after
almost 20 years, and I feel very privileged
to have been able to provide library
service to this community.
I would like to thank Tracy Mozill, Amy
Monner and Charity Lewis for their
dedication in making the Milo Library
run so smoothly. I want to wish them
well in their future endeavors.
I am very happy to be handing the Library
Manager job to Celia Lahd. I look
forward to the new and exiting things
she will bring to the Library and am
confident the community will embrace
her as they did me so long ago. She is
way more qualified than I ever was.
It’s been a pleasure!

I need bail money.Mt/ tWcnA^lvh...
In my line of work, Bible reading is a constant. Each year as I read and reread the Good Book, something new stands out or catches my attention. Recently I was reading the book of Haggai - not one of the major prophets of the Old Testament, but nevertheless, one which seems to speak to this age. See what you think:
"Now therefore thus says the Lord of Hosts: Consider how you have fared? You have sown much, and harvested little; you eat, but you never have enough; you drink, but you never have your fill; you clothe yourselves, but no one is warm; and you that earn wages earn wages to put them into a bag with holes.”
In the relevant words of that prophet of modern times, Dr. Phil,
“And how is that working for you?”
(You might take this a little more seriously if the preacher wasn't somewhere on a cruise ship at this very moment, so I guess I am not immune. Hopefully I do enough good in the community to take some time away and, without guilt, briefly live the good life.)
Modern society is all too consumed with 'me' and 'things' and 'pleasures'. I think what the prophet is saying is, that:
• Unless you are grounded in the larger reality of the world;
• Realize how very fortunate is your fate, that you have been blessed by God;
• That you work not just for yourself, but to ensure that the poor around you are fed, clothed, & maintained, and
• Live every day with honest regard for your fellow man,
... there is no hope that the Lord of Hosts will look kindly on your life.
He will indeed consider how you have fared on your earthly journey and decide whether you have done enough. When was it that I saw you hungry and fed you? Or thirsty and gave you drink? When did I see you as a stranger and took you in? Or naked and clothed you? When did I see you sick or in prison and visited you? Verily I say unto thee, inasmuch as thou hast done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, thou hast done it unto me.
The Holy Family were themselves refugees, fleeing into Egypt to escape from another evil ruler, King Herod, so I believe that He would sympathize with the plight of the millions of refugees fleeing a conflict not of their making, trying to find sanctuary and a new life. Consider how you have fared. Consider how you can, in turn, show your gratitude by supporting those whose need is great.

February ISSUE 2016
CELEBRATE WITH US!
Junior Curling Season has started with practices Mondays and games on Wednesdays.
Milo School won a recent school curling game 5-2/ YAYl
Marine Biology bake sale raised $242.30, the bottle drive was very successful and is currently being tallied. Next up is the Sweetheart Supper and Spring Flower Fundraiser. Thanks to everyone for your continued support.
Principal Message: Skating, Literacy, and Exams!
January has now come on gone, with bitter cold days and some almost like summerl Along with it we have been busy with ice skating, studying and preparing for exams and having awesome literacy activities! February is KINDNESS month - help us to spread love and joy at school by talking about kindness at home in different ways.
Family Literacy Day was a hit on January 27th with guests from the fire department, the RCMP, the Vulcan Coalition of Early Childhood Development with Rainbow Literacy, community members and families. We had a fabulous visit with Tanya Elliott, an author from Brooks, Alberta. She is also a teacher, and spent time with the students inspiring them to use their imagination and pursue their dreams.
Exam week was the last week of January. It was a great way to see where our students are doing well and where they are struggling. Remember that there are many factors that limit or contribute to success in a test: level of confidence, anxiety and the amount of sleep and food eaten, all play a role in addition to the student’s knowledge of the subject. As well, some students may be struggling with reading, expression of ideas, processing information and attention
due to differences in their abilities and development. Everyone is on their own personal learning journey and it is our job (with you) to discover the various ways to realize everyone's potential. Tests are only one sample of many other aspects of student learning. In February information will be sent home to communicate with parents and guardians how the results were and areas requiring further growth for our school.
We are looking forward to a few things in February! Not only is there the week off February 15-19, but also on February 22 there is a special dance performance, SAFIRE, which focuses on a message about confidence, leadership and bullying from the Canadian School Presenters. And... on February 23 we are going SKIIING to Castle Mountain! Oh Yeah!
Finally in February there will be two surveys for you to complete. One will be for the school and the other is for the government, called the Accountability Pillar Survey. Completing both surveys is very important in order for us to learn your perspective about what we are doing well and what we could improve on. Please read below for more information.
Thank you for your awesome support in your child’s learning! Have an epic February!
-Ms. Prud’Homme
Important Message: Survey info coming home soon!
Attached with this News Update is information about surveys for parents and students to complete. This will be printed and sent home for school parents.
There will be two surveys. One is for the school’s information, as an opportunity to get feedback from students and parents now. The other is the government survey from Alberta Education, which comes out every year, called The Accountability Pillar Survey. This survey is what we use to plan school goals by assessing our level of school
achievement and areas requiring improvement.
Please complete both surveys so that we can have information to help us grow further!
If you would like to come in to the school during the day to complete the surveys online, you are welcome to do so. Laptops will be available in the library for the survey to be completed. Simply come in and sign in to the office and visif the library laptops.
Thank you very much, in advance, for taking the time to complete the surveys! We appreciate it!
First “WE READ” session went very well. The students were engaged and enthusiastic - this is a time for teachers to meet and collaborate. Let us know if you would like to help read to kids!
Family Literacy Day was on January 27 and we all enjoyed the visit from guest author, Tanya Elliott along with family and community reading time and a potluck lunch! Awesome!
Art classes start the second week of February on Thursdays with Vulcan Art Teacher Michael Shain, for the 3-5 and 6-9 classes.
The science lab and library have a bright and fresh coat of paint.
Free Family Movie Night was well attended with an audience ranging from pre-school to grandparents enjoying a good laugh at the antics of the Minions. Thank you for attending!
We are now working on developing a new school sign for above our front entrance!
Check out the photography from the photography options class! Students learned how to communicate creatively.

SPOTLIGHT
Congratulations! In January we began nominating Learners of the Week!
Family Literacy Day!
Thank you to all that came out to share Family Literacy Day with us at the school. Special thanks goes to Tanya Elliott, the guest author who came to speak with all of the classes. She also did creative writing activities with the junior highs. Tanya’s book, The Secret Blanket is for sale online as well! Thank you to all that took part in organizing the event, participating, and to all of the community members from Milo and Vulcan who visited! The potluck lunch was fabulous as always and we especially enjoyed the delicious cake that was donated by the Milo Seed Cleaning Plant.

The Milo Can Opener
RARE “FIREHOSE” LAVA STREAM AT HAWAII VOLCANO
A dramatic 70 foot “firehose” stream of molten lava shoots out of a sea cliff January 29 on Hawaii Island, splashing into the Pacific Ocean. The massive Kilauea flow is coming from a lava tube at the Kamokuna ocean entry on the southeast side of the Big Island. The lava is gushing from a tube exposed when a huge, 26-acre lava delta collapsed into the ocean at the site on New Year’s Eve. The lava stream started out as a drizzle coming down the sea cliffs after the New Year collapse, but has recently increased in intensity. This firehose event is unusual because it has lasted so long. Usually when a flow opens up like this, the lava quickly builds new land below and plugs the entry. In this case, the topography must be very deep and a new delta is not forming yet. Dale and Colleen Deitz, and Ian and Barb Godkin were lucky enough to see this sight on their recent visit. Photo by Barb GodkinThe Milo Can Opener

My thoughts...
There are many people who, if asked, would say that they are Christian. It is easy to say, but in many cases it is not the truth. There are those who attend church each and every Sunday and feel that makes them Christian.
But sadly going to church no more makes you a Christian, than sitting in the garage will make you a Ford (or Chev, Chrysler, etc.)
In the Bible, there are examples of Jesus walking by and simply saying "Follow me" and disciples walk away from what they are doing, giving up everything in life they have held dear and following Christ. In most cases, following Him resulted in their death. They indeed gave all they had to follow
Christ.
But what do we give up or do for Christ?
Join the worship committee (choir, altar guild, etc.)?
Attend bible study? Too busy.
Speak out against injustice in the world? No Volunteer to read at church on Sunday? Too shy.
Teach Sunday School? Can't
Volunteer to visit the sick & home bound? Not my resoonsibilitv.
How different lives could be if we, like those who did rise up and follow Christ, would forget all the excuses that we can come up with and just decide that we too can follow Christ and make a real difference in the world. How different our lives would be if we could think of more reasons to follow Christ, and fewer excuses about how difficult it is to be a Christian in today's world.
The Christian faith has not been tried untried.G. K. Chesterton
Our Lord gave up His life for you! What have you given up for Him?

A fun-filled afternoon presented by Milo & District Recreation Board. Come out to enjoy a family skate, hot chocolate, hot dogs and a bonfire! Ensure you bring skates and helmets for the kids. Weather permitting.

When: Monday February 20
Time: 1 — 4 pm / ^
A,..Our picks for things you wish you could say at work...
1) How about never? Is never good for you?
2) You know, I like you. You remind me of me, when I was young and stupid.
3) Remember, the fact that no one understands you does NOT make you an artist or a visionary.
4) I see you've set aside this time as a special moment to humiliate yourself in public.
5) I am really easy to get along with—once you people all learn to fear and worship me.
6) I will try being nicer. If you’ll try being smarter.
7) Sorry, I’m currently out of my mind, but please feel free to leave a message.
8) That does sound like English, but I can't understand a word you’re saying.
9) I can see your point, but I can’t understand how you have the nerve to say dumb stuff like that.
10) I don’t know exactly what your problem is, but I’ll bet money that it's hard to pronounce.
11) As you lay this out, I’m already visualizing putting the duct tape over your mouth.
12) Thank you for sharing. We are all refreshed and challenged by your uniquely ridiculous point of view.
13) Ahhh... I see the Screw-up Fairy visited you again last night.
14) Any point of connection between your views and reality is purely coincidental.
15) Some days I’m afraid I’ve become human flypaper for idiots.
16) Yes, I am an agent of Satan, but here at work my duties are largely ceremonial. Except for you of course.
17) You sound quite reasonable today. Have they upped your medication?
18) No, I actually get paid to just wander from room to room..
Yes, they actually said that.
On September 17,1994, Alabama's Heather Whitestone was
selected as Miss America 1995. Here's her answer to her question... Question: If you could live forever, would you and why?
Answer: "I would not live forever, because we should not live forever, because if we were supposed to live forever, then we would live forever, but we cannot live forever, which is why I would not live forever." - Heather Whitestone
"Whenever I watch TV and see those poor starving kids all over the world, I can't help but cry. I mean I'd love to be skinny like that, but not with all those flies and death and stuff." - Mariah Carey
"Smoking kills. If you're killed, you've lost a very important part of your life." - Brooke Shields, during an interview to become Spokesperson for federal anti-smoking campaign.
"Outside of the killings, Washington has one of the lowest crime rates in the country." -- Mayor Marion Barry, Washington, DC. (Before his arrest for smoking crack cocaine, conviction, six months in prison, and re-election as mayor.)
"I'm not going to have some reporters pawing through our papers. We are the president." - Hillary Clinton commenting on the release of subpoenaed documents.
"That lowdown scoundrel deserves to be kicked to death by a jackass, and I'm just the one to do it." -- A congressional candidate in Texas.
"It isn't pollution that's harming the environment. It's the impurities in our air and water that are doing it." - Al Gore, Vice President of the United States.
"I love California. I practically grew up in Phoenix." - Dan Quayle
"We’ve got to pause and ask ourselves: How much clean air do we need?" - Lee lacocca
"We don't necessarily discriminate. We simply exclude certain types of people." -- Colonel Gerald Wellman, ROTC Instructor.
"If we don't succeed, we run the risk of failure." - Bill Clinton, President of the United States.
"Traditionally, most of Australia's imports come from overseas." - Keppel Enderbery, Australian politician and judge.
"Your food stamps will be stopped effective March 1992 because we received notice that you passed away. May God bless you. You may reapply if there is a change in your circumstances." -- Department of Social Services, Greenville, South Carolina
"If somebody has a bad heart, they can plug this jack in at night as they go to bed and it will monitor their heart throughout the night. And the next morning, when they wake up dead, there’ll be a record." ~ Mark S. Fowler, FCC ChairmanFebruary 2017

Want to live longer? Read a book
https://
w w w. weforum. or g/ agenda/2016/10/want-to -live-ion ger-read-a- book/
Could a bit of light reading every day add years to your life?A new study by Yale University found that reading books was positively correlated with increased lifespan - people who read books lived for around two years longer than those who didn’t.
Adding a few more pages
In the study, published in the journal Social Science and Medicine, researchers evaluated data on 3,635 Americans aged over 50. Respondents were separated into those who read for 3.5 hours or more a week, those who read for up to 3.5 hours a week, and those who didn’t read at all, controlling for factors such as gender, race and education.
The researchers discovered that those who read for more than 3.5 hours a week were 23% less likely to die within 12 years, while those who read for up to 3.5 hours a week were 17% less likely to die within that period.
Co-author of the study, Becca R. Levy, Professor of Epidemiology at Yale University, told the New York Times,
“People who report as little as a half-hour a day of book reading had a significant survival advantage over those who did not read.”

University of Lethbridge Library
Southern Alberta Newspaper Collection
&
We are happy to announce that the Milo Library Archives is going to partner with the University of Lethbridge Archives. Our local Milo Can Opener will become part of the University of Lethbridge Library Southern Alberta Newspaper Collection.
U of L Archivist Michael Perry attended the
Milo Library Board meeting on Jan 25th where he presented the proposal to the Board. Check out this site for various S.A. newspapers. http://digitaHibrarv.uleth.ca/ cdm/landingpage/collection/ sanews
He also presented the idea of Milo participating in an Oral History Project. COHT (Centre for Oral History and Tradition) will put together workshops to prepare regions for creating successful
oral histories. The board passed a motion to investigate if there would be enough interest in the project.
It will be necessary to get volunteers to learn the interview process. We anticipate going into the interviewee’s home with a digital recorder that the University can loan out. Please contact the Library or Cam Klem if you are interested in participating in this project. (An ad for this is located in this Can Opener).

Dear Residents & Ratepayers,
VILLAGE OF
MILO
ALBERTA
Utility billings have been issued in both villages for the first time in 2017. In Arrowwood, the villages continue to issue bi-monthly billings and will not be returning to a discounted annual billing structure. However, given the fixed rates, it is possible for landlords to pay for 12 months at time. We will continue bill for water use overage, and we can bill both landlords and tenants.
In Milo, there was an oversight prior to processing the January billing which meant that the new garbage rate was not applied. What this means is that February bills will include to the new garbage rate of 24 (eliminating the recycling and capitalization charges) and a one-time adjustment charge of $4.50

Group Support Deemed Important Component of Weight Loss Success
Health authorities, including the American Dietetic Association, the American Heart Association, and the American Medical Association all agree that trendy diets and “magic” weight loss pills do not work. Americans spend 6 billion dollars a year on weight-loss products, yet rates of overweight and obesity have grown to epidemic proportions over the last 20 years. The best approach to weight control is to adopt sensible behaviors, sound eating habits and as research suggests — consistent support.
Barbara Cady, president of TOPS Club Inc, a non-profit, non-commercial weight loss support organization, know this well. “TOPS is dedicated to combining tools for healthy living and sensible weight management with exceptional group support,” says Cady. “Our weight loss support program lets people know that they are not alone, that there are others who understand what they are going through. Support is what makes TOPS unique and successful - it is the cornerstone of our organization.”
TOPS philosophy is that the best way to lose and maintain a healthy weight is through education, encouragement and consistent support from others.
Research validates this belief. A study conducted by the National Weight Control Registry found that people who lost weight and attended regular weight loss support group meetings for one year maintained their full weight loss. Study participants who did not attend support group meetings regained almost half of the weight.
People who participate is support groups say the experience gives them a forum to exchange valuable information while providing an emotional connection when they might feel isolated by others.
TOPS meetings provide an opportunity to share information ranging from reasonable menu plans and the benefits of exercise to tips on strengthening social relationships and self-acceptance.
TOPS Club, Inc. is a powerful, nonprofit, noncommercial weight-loss support organization with thousands of associate chapters across the U.S. and Canada.
Our Milo TOPS Chapter began in May 1974. Currently we have eight members and we meet every Thursday morning at 8:30 a.m. in the Lutheran Church basement. If you would like more information concerning our local TOPS chapter please feel free to call our Chapter Leader, Susan Ivers. If you are looking for an affordable, informative, ongoing weight loss support program then maybe TOPS is for you.
