By MARY OLSON : A Whitetail Beaver sleepover was held on June 22 and 23 in Robson. The il isan to the Cub program. The boys experience their first canvas sleepover so they can go into a cub camp. Upon arrival the boys stored their gear and were astigned tents by ADC Peggy Guindon and Leader Gaye Coleman. While the rest of the boys were arriving, the ones who finished with their gear had the opportunity to help Leader Kathy Armstrong with the care and feeding of dogs, horses, chickens and turkeys. In opening ceremonies, the boys went inte riverbanks and dam where Mrs. Guindon went over camp Tales and regulations. After opening, the colony was led on a hike of about 3 kilometres by Armstrong up the mountain behind the camp. During the hike they identified wild asparagus, differ. ent kinds of weeds, a salamander, wild flowers and different trees. Returning to the camp, the boys were thet by Jim Waldie who was there to lead the campfire- Before the fire was lit Mr. Waldie had a talk with the Beavers on what a traditional Scout campfire means. and gave an explanation on Scout “yells” which is an alternative to applause. ‘The fire was then lit by Elmer Guindon, Service Scout from Kinnaird Ist. There was very exuberant singing around the campfire with the boys learning some of the Cub camping songs. Mug-up, storytime and bedtime followed shortly there- after. Saturday — after the gear was picked up and tents cleaned — a breakfast of pancakes was prepared and served with the help of Susan Bagur. After everyone had eaten their fill, they went on a ramble to Pass Creek Park. First on the agenda was a nature walk to colleet speci mens of trees and cones. Halfway through the trek they stopped in a clearing to play the “pine cone game.” This involves play with a learning experience of identifying the different samples collected. They then continued on the hike back to the starting point and had a juice break. After refreshments the Beavers made little posters using the samples collected previously. Mrs. Coleman then led the Beavers in a treasure hunt for leprachauns and later told a story about them Lunch of hamburgers and fresh vegetables was enjoyed and closing took place immediately afterwards. Each boy re ceived a camp crest and a farewell of good scouting from COMMUNITY Mrs. Guindon, and each leader was given a stuffed Beaver =k doll, also made by Peggy Guindon. ti B Everyone then returned to camp where the boys were ULICTIN 120 siaaeeel Shoplifting 3 is acrime!

Gelatin a beauty . aid TORONTO (CP) — Pow dered gelatin has long been familiar to cooks, and more recently it has been touted as a plant food. But now its maker says it can also. be used as a beauty aid. Anne Marie Britton, who acts as beauty consultant to the recently-established Knox Health and Beauty The when Schiesser’s daughter, Julia Cundliffe, existence and finally opened the grate. ¥ of d Jduded and relatives have sj By LILLY TASSO BEIRUT (CP) — Every morning during my six days Lebanon, I'd awake with the sun like almost everyone who lives up on the mountains surrounding Beirut. Breakfast on the balcony there affords a view of the fce-capped Mzar, 2,600 metres high, surrounded by an incredible assortment of flora — black irises, geraniums and other wild species that grow despite war. With apprehension, I climbed into the car with my sister Rejeane to drive to her house in Christian East Beirut. It has been 20 years since I last visited Beirut, and it was hard to picture it as ravaged. We drove through streets where store fronts are protected by stone screens and sandbags. Mornings are usually calm; the shooting begins in the afternoon and gets heavier in the night. “Look out for snipers when you cross the street,” Rejeane advised me. “They set up their ambushes at the Tayoune traffic circle and pick at passers-by.” BULLET HOLES When they are not at their second (and safer) home, Rejeane and her husband, Victor Somma — a manager for the harbor authority — have their secofitPflear residence in the Badaro quarter of East Beirut. It has had its’share of gunfire, as indicated by the bullet holes in the walls. A curtain in the study was pie: by one bullet which then tore through a shelf of s. Another slug landed in the refrigerator. The windows have been replaced three times. Every night, my sister and her husband extend hospitality to their neighbors from the sixth floor, which is more vulnerable to shooting. Everyone sleeps in the small corridor, which has room for only two mattresses but affords protection from shrapnel or flying glass. “It's something of an event when we get a whole night's sleep,” said Dr. Maggy Kher, a pediatrician. 10 RADIO STATIONS “The Lebanese live connected to their transistor radios,” says Kher. There are about 10 radio stations that supply news on casualties and neighborhoods under fire. “They do it so fast that it’s sometimes like 9 hallucin. ation,” said Henri Dermarkar, an old friend. “I remember one day when I came across two Israelis in a car. A few minutes later I heard on the radio that they'd been killed at the next intersection.” Food is not scarce, but electricity and water are very pften rationed. If dinner by candlelight at my niece's seemed romantic, concern about the meat in the refrigerator was not. BUSES AS BARRICADES Public transport hasn't existed for a long time; the toppled buses are used as barricades. Government offices and schools are opened or closed according to the cireum- stances of the day. T'm told everyone gets paid. Some workers receive only part of their salary, while the young unemployed seem to survive by joining one militia or another. The proverbial ingenuity of the Lebanese has kept the economy running. “Anywhere else, the economy would have caved in P ” said Henri A of the F bank SAL, one of the biggest of the about 100 banks that still operate in Beirut. “Not here. Private initiative has allowed Lebanon to continue existing.” RISKY ADVENTURE A visit to the burned-out sections of the city is, of course, a risky adventure. After nine years of war and arms trafficking, there are always those who shoot for the sake of shooting and who inflict the most senseless death. ‘The famous rue de Musee (Museum Street), the only open ‘passage between Christian East Beifut and the Moslem west side, is not spared by sharpshooters. Knowing it could take hours to get through by car, a friend and I decided to cross this “no man’s land” on foot as government soldiers on surveillance and control duty watched. The National Museum, starting point of our expedi tion, has a massive, ochre-colored facade riddled with bullet holes. I wonder what has happened to the Phoeni. cian, Greek, Roman and Byzantine antiquities the museum once contained “Much of it has been stolen,” my friend says We continue through the heat and dust on cracked pavement. Here and there along the kilometre that separates us from Barbir, on the west side, are buildings that give the impression of having been whipped by an irrepressible hurricane. d by mice, signatures by Adolf Hitler, Heinrich Himmler, Martin Bormann and other members of the Nazi inner circle.

Cundlilffe said she wants the collection to go back to Germany. “After all, it's their heritage, not ours.” : A West German archivist, in Canada on a lecture tour, ee . r welled t0't ‘earlier this year to help categorize the when the whole job is done and my 4@ normal; it's been a real disruption.” s fermer journalist and previous owner of the Gazette, said she has received more offers than she can count from various sources, ding private coll provincial archives and auction houses. Queries have come from the United States, Great Britain and West Germany. “The Philips Auction House in England has been writing regularly to inquire after the collection . . . we con stantly get phone calls and letters, but nobody has come to pester us.” Cundliffe said she hasn't put a price tag on the collec- tion, although she estimates it will be in the thousands of dollars. She plans to make an announcement on what will be done with them after the anniversary of Schiesser's death Aug. 16. Among various official Nazi papers, photographs and mementoes are personal items that once belonged to top Nazi brass, including a calling card from Eva Braun and personal photograph albums of Bormann and Rudolph Hess. “So while he eventually became a semi-rectuse, the crate just sat in the attic, collecting dust.” Schiesser, born in Switzerland, moved to Canada'in the 1920s and joined the army as a cook soon after the war began. When officers learned he spoke five languages, including German, he was transferred to the Canadian army intelligence corps. He worked as a front-line operative until he was wounded by a shell burst in 1943. Jerry O'Brien, chief of state and military reeords, said in a telephone interview from Ottawa earlier this year it is unlikely Schiesser would have come across the Nazi articles as part of his regular duties. Cundliffe said: “The whole thing does make an inter- esting story, from when dad was in the army to now... - Maybe I'll write about it some day.” MEET YOU AT THE BAY FOR A MONEY SAVING MONTH Elizabeth Arden’s gift to you 25% off Tabi separates Receive a sun visor and pom pom socks with Tabi is always @ good buy, but at 25% off it’s at any of the following Elizabeth Arden Visibie Difference products: Face Care (30 or 70 mL), Body Care (150 or 300 mL), Eyecare Tube, Eyecare Pump, soap.
