Scientific announcement

Hamilton, Selkirk physics: de-

“But ib was very dim,” he
said. The mountains also made
viewing difficult.

Scientists said Sunday that
the comet had become so dim
that even the Skylab. 3

Mr. Hamilton said that on
Saturday night, the. comet

Grave Side Service Held

For Joseph Slobodzian

Grave-side service’ was

‘The way is dark, and I am sore afraid.”

Soon came the answer as I waited there,

“The New Year is a gift from God above,
No matter what it gives you or. withholds,

You must trust God nor-ever doubt his love.”

“But when the burdens bend my spirit low,
And sorrows come I cannot understand?”
Softly but surely came the voice I heard,
“Then trust God more, more tightly hold his hand.”

“So many problems, Lord,” I said at last,
“So many ways to turn—how can I know
Which one is best?" I heard him softly say,
“Hold thou my hand—I will not let you go.”

Then suddenly my fears seemed small indeed,
I felt a peace I never knew before,
The ‘portale of the New Year opened wide,
And God was waiting just inside the door.

Clams Edible

Some people are puzzled
when they come across clams in
some of Canada’s larger In-

associated with salt water and

Freshwater clams are ed-
ible and have been used by
Indians for years as food.

There is no limit or season
on the taking of them.
