Page 8-Claresholm Local Press, Wednesday, February 24, 1988 Agriculture Crib champs A 370-mile trip to play crib certainly paid off for Squee and Elise Allen last weekend. The couple from Ker- robert, SK played a week's worth of excellent cribbage and won first prize in a tournament sponsored by the Claresholm Motor Inn. Rick Hillgardner (center) Was happy to present Squee and Elise with their prize a trip for two to Las Vegas or Reno. M.D. Business Licence Bylaw drafted The Council of the. M.D. of Willow Creek is studying, the first draft of a Business Licence Bylaw for the municipality as presented at the February 17 meeting. The document, which will be under consideration for the next several months, carries a varied fee structure depending on the type of operation, but on the average, it is in the range of 100 per year for residents. The non-resident fee is conside erably higher in most cases. In general, it'contains provi- sions under which 4 licence may be granted, allows for the ap- p fmtment of a Licence Inspector who would have the authority to mforce conditions under which itis issued, and lists cases, which are exempt from the bylaw Several reasons are behind the draft. according to' council For one, it has been requested by some M.D. residents who oper- ate a small business and do work in both the rural and urban areas within the municipality: These persons have point out that in order to obtain business licence to operate within a town they are charged, at least in one case, the non-resident fee which is double that paid by a town- based business. On the other hand, a town business can oper- ate in the rural area at nocharge at present, due to the lack of a municipa business licence re- quirement. They feel this situa- tion is unfair. Further to this, council has re- quested that its representatives take a proposal to the Willow Creek Economic Development Committee. Basically, it suggests a common business li- cence fee structure for the M.D. and all towns within the munici- pality. Rural residents would pay their fee to the M.D., urban residents to the town in which their business is located. How- ever, the one licence would apply to all areas, rural or urban, within the municipal boundaries Another reason for the bylaw is the control it will provide over General Hospital Auxiliary Board meeting NOBODY COMPETES LIKE TEAM CHRYSLER. Annc:: acing ce Cash Back Month. The regular meeting of the Claresholm General Hospital Auxiliary was held on-February 18, in the President Doris Weatherhead chaired the meeting. Merran Leeds acted as Secretary as our Secretary Gladys Nelson is away. AnnaBelle Travis was Treasurer in the absence of Laurie Matheson. Reports from the various committees were given. Two more CALL Systems had been installed recently. As we did not have a program it was a Board Room,. short meeting, but we did have a good discussion on projects that were suggested to us by the Director of Patient Care, Mrs. Flanagan, as prices on these projects were not -available we made no decision, but Mrs. Flanagan will get prices for the next meeting. A baby seat for the nursery will be purchased. Mrs. Alice Bush made 80 baby bonnets for the nursery which were very much appreciated. The next meeting will be March 17, everyone welcome. Hospital seeks support The new Willow. Creek Auxiliary Hospital and Nursing Home will be looking for community support for special projects, according to a recent committee report to the Hospital Board. The Special Projects Funding Committee identified several needs which cannot be met by government funding because they are not considered to be essential. However, the Board believes these projects are necessary to. improve the quality of life for the residents, and is hopeful that many of the costs can be met through local fund raising Some of the priority projects include art work (paintings, photographs, etc. for corridors), atrium at the front entrance, plants for public areas, chapel furnishings, development of courtyards, outside seating, and. equipment not approved by government. The atrium at the front entrance is included in the list of special projects because additional funds may be n eded to supplement the generous commitment made by the Rotary. Club. As well, the patients, through + their Wandering Willows organization, remain active in their fund raising activities The Board is hopeful that community clubs and organizations, as well as private individuals, will support their new facility through donations and fund raising activities. The new building is scheduled for completion in August of this year rural business. Councillor Ken Dahl said that pr sently there is no good way of enforcing condi- tions under which a permit for operating a business in the M.D. is granted . This bylaw will re- ctify this situation in that appli- cation will be necessary on an annual basis. If conditions are not being complied with, newal can be denied. Dahl said it should also. offer some protection to rural resi- dents against fly-by-night operators. If salesmen do not have a municipal busin cence, which people should ask to'see, it would be wi8 td turn, them a ., Generally, legiti- mate businessmen operate at in local bylaws. Council admits the bylaw will also generate a little revenue , but says the main benefits are those stated previously. Councillors welcome com- ments on this proposed bylaw Each has a copy of the draft, or one can be obtained from the M.D. Administration Office. re- pss li-* T CHOICE OF 87s AND 68s'* News Views Christine Cook Disttict Home Economist Box 40, Claresholm r Phone 625-3301 or 625-2533 A NEW DISTRICT HOME -, ECONOMIST If you don t already know, Alberta Agriculture has a new District Home Economist.

Planned marketing pays. similar pattern of development swept the rest of the provinces. Thus, Roland, Manitoba, became the official site of the beginning of the 4H movement in Canada. The four H's clearly defined k the goal of this new-formed organization. This goal of providing practical training for young people so that they may lead useful, satisfying lives and be better prepared to take their places as citizens of tomorrow , is still being met by the 4-H movement. Today, 4-H still stands strong in this international organization. In Alberta there are 472 clubs, 7,217 members, and 2,328 leaders, That is quite a growth from the original Swine Club in Olds in 1917.
