Thank you, Gail Zamarchi for providing me with your information and particularly the Wordperfect formats and diskette. It's saved alot of time (although I am spending more time learning features of Wordperfect that I never used before). Since full page articles do not always reduce well, I'll try to retype them into the DewClaw page size. Hint: For those of you who use wordprocessing for your articles, if you set the margins for the reduced size, I can use the article as submitted. Secondly, a warning - if you volunteer to help out, BE PREPARED! I thought that volunteering would get me a position as a member of a committee, but NO, I get one of the big jobs! Oh well - there's nothing like National recognition. It's like the man being hanged said, "If it wasn't for the honor, I'd rather not!" Although this issue is a little later than planned (I needed time to learn, time to get everyone used to change, and definitely wanted Specialty articles), the schedule for publication is: March 15, June 15, October 15 and December 15. Deadline dates are: March 1, June 1, October 1 and December 1 but I'd like them as early as possible. I'll try my darndest to meet the dates. As with any publication, content is determined by what is received. I do work full-time, am very involved with a local kennel club and sometimes show my dogs. I will not be calling and begging for items for the magazine. So please send in any articles, cartoons, candid photos and, of course, ads and new titles so I can put together a decent issue. AM/CAN CH. JOHN'S PASHTU de STRATHCONA, T. T., H.!.
