iat LT Message from sass STEELWORKERS UNION on us, one can only look on The good and happy memories As the New Year is now the past with reflections. tend to stay with us always to be remembered time and time again, however, we, as individuals also tend to shut out the hardships and misfortunes we encounter. Some try to analogize the mistakes and correct them in the future. We as a Union (both Locals) have had great success- es during 1975, but not without suffering to some degree to achieve them. Safety and Health, Medicals for long term and short term Employees, for Asbestosis and other related deseases, improvements in Environmental control, improvements in discipline procedures and of course a two week work stoppage to mention a few. I think my greatest disappointment in 1975 was to hear that some citizens of Cassiar-inquired as to who was sponsoring the New Years Dance and upon hearing it was the Union they said to the effect,"No way in the world would they go to a Union sponsored Dance". TI think these individuals should ask themselves a very important question -- "Why did the Union take over the responsibilities of the New Years Dance from The C.C.C." At this time I would like to thank all those who assisted, including the Students Council, in the pro- motion of this Dance to make it the Best New Years Dance in the six years I've been in Cassiar. In thoughts to ponder for 1976, my first thought was the word, "UNION." In reading the definition of the word in the Funk and Wagnalls Dictionary and I quote, "Union is a bringing together of things that have been distinct, so that they combine or coalesce to form a new whole." It is everyone's responsibility whether Mine Manager, Housewife, Contractor or Labourer, to make Cassiar a Community. of which we can be proud to live and work in. No matter what it be, the Company, Steelwork- ers, Town Council, C.C.C. or any other club or organiza- tion in Cassiar, without each other, or the people of Cassiar they are nothing, so lets all get together in 1976 and make this a Community United in our goals to create a better living for each and everyone of us.

Over this past year, there were from 300 to 425 people eating there every day. This comes to 25,400 meals prepared during the month of November. Over the past few months the Cafeteria has been up- dated by a good number of changes that most people do not know anything about. So we are taking this opportunity to keep you informed. Kitchen walls and ceiling were lined with white enamel board. Kitchen floor and work area of dining room had new linoleum layed. Garbage disposal room was remodelled and relined. Black light exterminators were installed. Warehouse section was remodelled and painted. New steam table and refrigerated serving counter were installed. Four new propane grills and tilting frypan were installed. New modern ovens. New dough mixer in the bakery. New steamless steel storage shelves in bakery. A complete new ventilation system. Four new picture windows and drapes in dining room. There are still a few modifications to make, to put the Cafeteria in a first class shape,and these changes will also be made in the near future. | i a de Pree ee ee at A UCLA graduate student, studying juvenile delinquency, took part in a telephone survey. His job was to phone parents around 9 P.M. and ask if they knew where their children were. 'My first six calls,'' he reported, ''were answered by children who had no idea where their parents were." eeerere >, Page 11 Soe Oe ge Meo, ° e, ° 2 ,o ate 0% a0 4) o, a ee O- 4%, Semin re The Lions Club of Cassiar are going to form a "Lions 200 Club''". The idea is that 200 memberships will be sold, and once a month for 10 months a members name will be drawn and this member will receive $400.00. A winning membership will have his or her card placed back in the box again so a member could stand to win $4,000.00 over the 10 month membership. There will be 200 members only, so join up early. No draws will be made until all memberships are sold. If all memberships are not sold your money will be refunded. A winning member has 90 days to claim his winnings. In the event it is not claimed an extra draw will be made. Membership in the "Lions 200 Club'' will be $40.00 per member. Two or more Oo, PERLITE. > people may combine to take out a membership but only one of these will be registered as a member. All proceeds out of the Club will be used for final renovations to the swimming pool building. Memberships available from any Lions Member. Xd THERE ARE STILL A FEW TICKETS FOR SALE.

The first game was won by Jim McLeod who received an electronic calculator for his efforts. Ron Winbow is the proud owner of a cassette player which he took jin a battle for the second game. Scott Creyke bagged a digital clock radio in the downfall of the third game, which should be pretty handy to watch all that overtime fly by, Scott! The fourth game for $150 was split be- tween Pat Moss and Floyd Melchoir. Rolph Borrmann walked away with a portable T.V. set at the end of the fifth game. The sixth game, the game that everyone wanted to win, was the blackout game for $500. "Under the N, clickity-click. 66" cries Frank, and Ross Rengen was the proud owner of the lucky card and $500. The seventh and eighth game was brought off by a little bit of team effort. Tom Farrell and Patsy walked away, the proud owners of a 35 mm camera and a typewriter. Congratula- tions to both or one of you!! The ninth game rolled by with Peter Pecek driving away with his set of new winter radial tires. Bob Phillips, who won the final game, received $250 for his prize.
