Centre. There you will be treated to a good old fashioned sing- a - long and traditional pub fare. Song sheets will be provided , so all you have to do is make sure your voice is in good shape for the evening; - we won’t tell if we should hear anyone practising. Since the event was-to be held originally on Jan- uary 19th, we’re sure that the dart enthusiasts will really be on form for the competition. Rem- ember each team entering the Con MON must consist of nine people. If you can drink a yard of ale in’ under three min- utes then you are doing pretty well - enter our competition!!! Entertainment will be provided by Cassiar’s very own barber - shop sextet. We understand that they have been busy practising. While we don’t have the added attraction of the Can-Can dancers we hear that there will be some buxom wenches behind the bar. You’ll have to come along to find out if that rumour has any foundation. . If you don’t think you can stand the pace you can just sit quietly in the ‘‘snug” and enjoy your PINT. All in all, the evening sounds like a barrel of fun - hope to see you there, “CASSIAR COOKBOOK”’ PLEASE HAVE YOUR FAVORITE RECIPE READY. SOMEONE WILL BE CALLING FOR IT IN THE NEAR FUTURE. CONCERT HUGE SUCCESS The Premek and Gina concert scheduled for Feb- ruary 24th was brought forward to the 25th of January with the society executive having only three days in which to notify the concert society members of the change. Considering the short notice the concert was extremely well attended and WHAT A SHOW IT WAS! In an: hour and a half Premek and Gina took us around the world with a medley of folk songs. Gina’s sense of humour and vivacity were extrem- ly refreshing and brought quite a response from the audience. She even managed to coax them into singing along with some of the numbers. The highlight of the evening for most of those who attended was Premek’s rendition of two classical guitar numbers. To say that you could have heard a pin drop is no exaggeration and indicates the appreciation of his performance. Comments such as - ‘Fantastic’, “Thoroughly enjoyed it”, ‘‘Classical guitar was the best part of the show”, and “Didn’t like it at first but enjoy- ed it more as the programme progressed”, were indicative of the general feelings of the audience and speaks well for the performers’ ability to assess the mood of the audience. After the performance the artists were available to autograph their albums which were on sale dur- ing the intermission and after their performance.

The programme is also used as an advertising medium for local businesses This is a new concept in Cassiar and we wish. those people involved EYENY, success with their production. ‘TOWN COUNCIL NEWS During the Town Council meeting held January 21, a great deal of time was spent discussing the dog. situation in Cassiar. Several complaints have been received, both written and verbal, concern- ing the methods used by the present dog catcher to catch dogs. We are willing to listen to any dog owner who has first hand proof of any allegations of enticement, calling dogs off their property or letting them off chains. The dog catcher is doing a necessary and vital job and he is doing it well.. Dogs are required, not by the Town Council, but by the Domestic Animals Act, to be contained, in towns. If your dog breaks away from his home ‘when he has been contained, then he requires a heavier chain, a stronger collar, or a higher fence. Dogs are the responsibility of their owners, if you are unwilling to accept this responsibility, then you should not have a dog. Dogs running loose for any reason:are a threat to the safety of our . residents, especially the children. No one can tell when a perfectly harmless pet will turn on a de- fenceless person. Hopefully, the loose dogs will be controlled through the diligent efforts of the dog catcher, and equally hopefully, dog owners will be just as eno about looking after their pets. Dog licenses are now available in the Town Ad- ministration office. A dog must be licensed after it reaches the age of four months. Preparations are going ahead for the Duke of Edinburgh’s Fifth Commonwealth Conference visitors, whom we are expecting May 24th. Our local group is to be commended on their fine job of organizing this project. Town beautification was also a topic at the meet- ing. We plan to continue with our improvement of the Cenotaph area by planting shrubs, bulbs, and hopefully acquiring some park benches for the area. The Arts & Crafts Centre still requires installation of the kiln and some plumbing MOUS to be com- pleted.
