Hunting and fishing are not sports reserved for men aldne in the north. Most fe- male teachers sport a .22 rifle and a fishing line (no worms required). Transportation in the set- tlement itself is done by motorized canoe, snowmob- ile or dog team. The natives of Round Lake by and large are economically solvent. earning a living by trapping. commercial fishing or work- ing at the sawmill. Families will be gone up to three mon- house. But it is experiences such as these that add to the adventure. giving you a chance to improvise and use your own judgement and dis- cretion. t a: :0: up The native children are a delight to teach and in Round Lake there is little if any discipline problem.

Naturally it is fascinating for them to sharpen a broken pencil and watch it get smal- ler. All the things that city children and teachers take for granted are foreign to these children and I had to give them a chance to adjust. Turning a handle and having water appear was worth at least half an hour. Having to path and ask how their child is doing in school. They ask you to let them know if he or she doesn’t behave. I find it so refreshing to deal with children and adults who are so appreciative and who take nothing for gran- ted. The unhurried atmos- phere gives a teacher time to enjoy her profession. And there is time to relax. I sincerely hope I can give as much of myself to the people of Round Lake as I have learned from them. t!-llllllllllllllllllll“\lll“llllll“llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll“lilllllllll“llllllllllllllllllllllllllll“I“\lllllll1|‘lllllllhlhlllllllllllllll“llllll!Ill1W“llllllllllllllllllllllllmlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllW“\lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll“\“lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllmilllll“llllllllllllll\lllllllllllllllll“llllllllllllllllllllllll“ll“lmull“llll“l“Illllll“l\ll\llllllllllllllllllll““ll-F Young Mother Warned About Jail If She Repeats Welfare Fraud She was given a suspended sentence, placed on probation for two years, and ordered to pay back the stolen money at the rate of $25 a month or face a fine or jail. or both. r “The court doesn't normally allow a person to be on proba- tion more than once.” said the judge, warning that the next time she would go to jail no matter how contrite she said she was in court. Carol Rutledge, 41, of Lot 10, Concession 8. Nobleton in Rich- mond Hill Court Thursday of I suppose there is a certain amount or social adjustment to be made. We are isolated in that our main communica- tion system with towns â€" Pickle Lake, Sioux Lookout. and Red Lake â€" is through planes. We ride Cessnas. Beavers. Otters. Norsmen and Beechcraft. These planes bring the mail once a week, along with food supplies for the Hudson‘s Bay and In- dian Co-Operative Stores. They also bring school sup- plies and inspectors from the Sioux Lookout District Office of Indian Affairs.

Twicé during the (Continued from Page 2) shock I had was when I left the north after four months in isolation and returned to what I thought were familiar surroundings. The Christmas rush in Toronto would give anyone a headache. But after the peace and quiet and fresh air of the north â€"â€" crowds. cars. noise and smog were terrifying.

Pilots and visitors are always welcomed for new conversation, news from the outside and the goodies they always carry to reimburse us for board and lodging. Occa- sionally, it seems, trips are arranged so there is more than one plane “overnight- ing." And then it takes no time to get everyone together for a social evening. Your entertainment, amusement and fun is what your own imâ€" agination can cojure up. All the holidays. no matter how insignificant. are observed in some way. Hunting and fishing are not sports reserved for men aldne in the north. Most fe- male teachers sport a .22 rifle and a fishing line (no worms required). AIRPORT SERVICE York Regional Area 884-4401: IF BUSY CALL ths to trapline or fishcamp. a situation which presents fur- ther difficulties in educa- tion. At one point last year I had 16 out of 24 children absent to trapline for over two months. ' Naturally there are minor problems as in having no running water in forty deg< rees below temperatures. At such a time every available pot and pan in the house is put on a tdboggan and haul- ed down to the lake. The nat- ives must thorougly enjoy watching us chop through the ice formed on the water hole overnight and fill our pots and pans. Of course these froze to the toboggan by the time we got~it back to the ‘house. But it is experiences such as these that add to the adventure, giving you a chance to improvise and use your own judgement and dis- cretion. The native children are a delight to teach and in Round Lake there is little if any discipline problem. After my first month last year. a little boy came to my desk while the rest of the class was working quietly at their seats and said. “Teacher. is '7'} fighting me Herbert." I looked around and all seemed quite normal. This continued every day with different children coming to me at the oddest times and I couldn't figure it out so I began to watch more care- fully. I finally spotted two boys at opposite ends of the class- room curling their lips. nod- ding their heads and raising their eyebrows at each other. Sure enough one popped up and confronted me with the same story, “Teacher. is fighting me Zebedee." Never was one punch thrown all year. but there were always at least two "fights" a day.

Astor Station, Boston, Massachusetts 02123 State live by the clock is also an adjustment the children must make. From the time school closes until dark the door bell rings constantly with children waiting to Visit. They usually don't come a1- one but in groups of up to six. They start by all hud- dling in one chair on top of each other. It is very easy to entertain them by simply spreading Eaton's catalogues on the floor. or crayons and coloring books. or comics. very strong family unit and they are very concerned ab.- out their children. Many parents will stop you on the path and ask how their child is doing in school. They ask you to let them know if he or she doesn’t behave.
