She's the fourth generation to grow up on the Larter Farms east of Picture Butte and she spread her schooling all around the area, with elementary in Iron Springs, junior high in Picture Butte and high school in Coaldale. Now she's been whooping it up all week at Whoop-Up Days as the new Ambassador for Exhibition Park, escorting Whoop-Up mascot Windy Whiskers to barbecues, pancake breakfasts, parades, other off- grounds events and of course, Whoop-Up Days. "I promote Whoop-Up Days, the Exhibition, and look after Windy," says Larter, who will head for the Lethbridge Community College this fall to pursue a business adminis­ tration and marketing diploma. "Windy and I will be at just about everything going on this week." Promoting and marketing rodeo, the western way of life and agricul­ ture is a double-barrelled cinch for Larter. Not only do her career goals at the LCC coincide with her job with Exhibition Park, but she has solid ties to the rodeo and agricul­ tural community as well. She's a high school and Chinook Rodeo Association barrel racer and a 4-H champion. "I've been part of Chinook rodeo for three years, but it's hard to say if I want to go pro, it would depend on my horse, my mindset and my out­ look for the future.

That makes them a premium to buy, and when the complex importation requirements are added, including stops in the French-owned island of St. Pierre in the St. Lawrence River, total costs are significant. Buhrmann said the Suri purchase was sped up when he learned the reg­ istry that designates purebred status was to be closed in Canada. The Cana­ dian border remains open, but unless purebred status can be achieved, the market price is much lower, a key fac­ tor when the importation costs are considered. "Without getting an ani­ mal registered, a producer would lose money on the sale of the alpaca." The Buhrmanns' shipment was the last to be registered before the registry was closed. The shipment culminated a months-long process that began with animal selection and screening in Bolivia late in 1998. With about 8,000 alpacas in Canada, there has been strong progress in increasing numbers. That progress will slow without the registry process. At that number, breeding stock remain the No. 1 source of income for breeders. And Canada has enough variety in blood lines to prevent any inbreeding problems.

The Queen Mother is 100 years old today LONDON (CP) —After a month of parties, pageants and religious services, the Queen Mother will mark her 100th birthday today on that famous balcony at Buckingham Palace. The balcony has been the scene of some of the most important moments in British history: marking the ends of wars, the coronations of monarchs and many royal marriages. Now it will be used to commemorate an event that even the most casual of royal watchers might find heartwarm­ ing. Police have prepared for tens of thousands of people to crowd in front of the palace and along the route where the Queen Mother will ride with her grandson, Prince Charles, in an open carriage from her London residence, Clarence House. People began camping out on the pavement outside Buckingham Palace for a good vantage point on Wednes­ day night. The celebration starts at Clarence House with military salutes. The Queen Mum will also accept delivery of a 100th birthday card from the post office. The card is similar to those that will be delivered to 11 other centenarians who were born on Aug. 4. The cards contain a personalized message from her daughter, the Queen. Prime Minister Jean Chretien issued a congratulatory AP PHOTO statement on behalf of Canada to the Queen Mother on A CENTURY YOUNG: Britain's Queen Mother wears a giant poppy, her big day. while attending the annual Service of Remembrance at St. Margaret's "On this happy occasion, Canadians remember fondly Church in London in this file photo. the Queen Mother's tour of Canada in the summer of 1939 with her husband, King George VI," he said.

By CLAYTON GROSE Lethbridge Herald April Feist has very little idea about what the next seven months will hold. And, at her first crossroad of life, that's part of the allure. Feist left the comforts of Picture Butte Wednesday for a seven-month tour with Katimavik, one of Canada's largest youth organizations. During that time, she will live in Mis­ sissippi Mills, Ont., Bell Island, Nfld. and St-Boniface, Man., and busy herself with volunteer community work. Feist, who graduated from Picture Butte High School last May, hopes to find some clues for post-secondary schooling and beyond. Over the seven months, she'll be exposed to community radio, teaching and support programs, clerical work, museum tours, promotions and con­ structing a nature trail around Bell Island, to name a few. "I don't know what to do for school, and this will hopefully give me some direction," she says. Along the way, she hopes to expand her knowledge of Canada and bring back fresh ideas to her community. Though Feist seems to be taking the seven-month trip in stride, the jitters do creep in. "I'm nervous about flying by myself," she says. She also wonders about the other peo­ ple she'll be living with — who they'll be, and whether they'll get along. Regardless of what she encounters along the way, Feist will learn a great deal from the experience and come back a different person from when she left.
