This Word came from Victoria over the weekend. : Actually St: Mary's-Hospital board has received word it can go ahead wih a 22 or 23 bed extension for extended care patients. To complete the upper floor would eventually allow for 35 beds but present plants call for completion of not more than 23-bed space. Increased occupancy of the hospital will also mean that present empty space in the maintenance department, in the. basement will also be completed for use. James E.

This is an order from the provincial pollution board ' to the school district board of trustees At Gibsons village council meeting two weeks ago practically the same letter was read to council from the pollution board. Council regarded it as a warning that it should be getting into the : sewage business. The school board will notify the areas where there is a tie- in such as the apartment block on School road, the bank and Co-op blocks and the Gower Point road area on the drug store side. Notification will be an official-notice but it is expected that with the village about to tackle the sewage problem that the pollution board may hold up actual severance until council can Jake over.. -:.;-��� r^v'--:���-:''"-'*' '-'-������';" . Martin J. J. Dayton, engineer discussed with Gibsons council Tuesday night possibilities of a sewage system. As he outlined it a total sewage system for the village proper would run into $443,000 which would consist of an internal collection system down to a waterline intercepter from the Indian reserve and from Georgia Heights joining at Prowse Road where with the aid of a pump it would be piped over to Gospel Rock area where it would be disposed of in deep water. The alternative he said would be to spend about $10,000 on extending the present outlet to deeper water. He also had a plan for a wider area, which is likely to be the village after its boundaries have been extended. This would cost in the region of $608,000 including the $443,000 for the village. At the conclusion of his presentation Chairman Wes Hodgson said the village would have to go into sewage and the longer it was delayed the more it would cost. The district Health Unit/with headquarters at Powell River recommended Joy letter to council that it should chlorinate Ht$ water.. The letter maintained that all water used for consumption should be chlorinated. The Health Unit will be informed that council already has the matter under consideration. sible for presenting the case for an extended care unit at the hospital. Now that they have been given approval in principle it will be up to them to get plans out and construction work under way. The brief presented to the minister of health in Victoria outlined the hospital's situation where' after operating for one year only, occupancy" was at maximum capacity. The committee's recommendation to the board of trustees asked that approval be obtained from the authorities for immediate construction of a 35- bed extended care unit and that the same firm which planned and supervised construction of the hospital be retained for the new project. That company was the Bennett and White Construction company of Burnaby. New clerk David Johnson, present clerk for the Salmon Arm Regional district and amaa with 20 years municipal service, was appointed Gibsons village clerk at T<ues day night's meeting. His salary will be $600 a month. He was one of 13 applicants council considered. He will commence his duties as soon after March 15 as possible. Ruckus eva Drawings allowed! Members of the district school board were pleased to hear from. Victoria at Monday night's meeting that they could go ahead with working drawings on what they had proposed for Elphinstone, Gibsons Elementary and Langdale schools in view of the lifting of the freeze on school construction. While they did not know how far they could go at present their minds were made up that it would not produce required accommodation for use in September. The board decided to go ahead with a census of preschool from the ages of one to five in order to be able to predict school population growth. Intermediate grade pupils will be used to gather this information. Al Porter, maintenance super visor obtained permission to purchase two second hand trucks at $1,395 and $1,495 for maintenance work in order to help cut down on mileage costs. This will give the department three trucks with which to work. A recent break-in at the Elementary school in Gibsons brought up the matter of the responsibility for the various funds that were collected through school children. The theft at the school involved about 50 cents taken from deposit cans. The board decided the matter of school security should be discussed at another meeting. Chairman Joseph Horvath co;vimented that there were too many drives for money going on. They get you at home, at school and at the plant where you work, he added. Vandals on rampage Young vandals who have been going the rounds breaking into homes and creating damage used the Women's Institute cottage on South Fletcher road for their latest depredation. They vented their vandalism on taking down the framed charter of the institute, removing it from the frame and tore it, and crumpled up the 40 year old envelope in which the charter arrived, rendering it useless. Some sewing was stuffed into stove pipes. Other papers and articles were scattered over the floors. RCMP investigated and are looking for the culprits. Members of the institute cleaned up the mess and were able to hold their whist drive this week. Even the whist cards and tally: boards were given the wrecking treatment by the intruders who apparently climlbed in through a high window.

That motion concerned a letter from the Public Utilities Commission which Councillor Drummond maintained was being withheld from council. When the motion was read, Councillor Peterson stated he did not have the letter. What he had was a copy of the letter, and, he added, Clerk Charles Gooding at the previous meeting offered to produce the original which was in his possession and available to council. Chairman Wes Hodgson termed the whole episode as an unfortunate circumstance and that a mountain was made out of a mole Jiill. The letter, the centre of the dispute, was read to council. It covered matters of water rates charged between people in Gibsons and those outside of the village. The chairman maintained he was within his rights to enquire from the PUC what they thought about the matter. In passing a copy of the letter over to Councillor Peterson, water commissioner, for further exploration of its contents he thought, the chairman said, he was doing the right thing. The matter wa.�� closed with the letter remaining on the agenda. The water commissioner will still seek the required information before he can make a report to council. When a fire underwriter questionnaire was put before council on the condition of the village fire department, Councillor Drummond requested that the underwriters toe asked) to explain why Sechelt's fire rates were now below Gibsons rates. The reduction had occurred since the Sechelt area became There is a boiling up pro-, cess under way in Davis Bay area arising from an application for a foreshore lease by Wesley John Anderson of Sechelt on 23 acres in area covering from close to the, mouth of :- Chapman Creek^to^the4 vicinity of the Davis Bay wharf. This includes what has been described as the best sandy beach area anywhere on the Sunshine ��� Coast from McNab's Creek around to Jervis Inlet. Strong opposition has developed against this proposed lease and already the Sunshine Coast Regional District at its meeting Friday night in Sechelt was definitely opposed to it. While the regional district board is powerless to act at present, having no bylaws regarding zoning it felt it should register its protest. A public meeting -.las been called for Thursday night at 8 p.m. in the Davis Bay Community hall to discuss this proposed lease and it is. expected, the meeting .will have-definiteJ, views on what should be" done with the best beach in the area. A committee composed of Vic Franske, Miss Adele deLange, Glen Phillips and Phil Lawrence, recreation director is working on the protest and it is expected they will approach Gibsons and Sechelt's municipal councils and the Sechelt, Gibsons and Pender Harbor Chambers of Commerce for support. It is reported that there are numerous letters on their way to the department in Victoria, protesting the use of the beach, for commercial purposes. Mr. Anderson's application: for the lease states that he-, proposes to construct a marina;, breakwater and reclaim some: land for commercial buildings.. ^The;;reclaimed land ..would be bullt up with* dredged material. At the meeting of the Regional District board a figure of $450,000 was mentioned as the amount of money that would be spent on the project if the lease could be obtained. The map above shows the Davis Bay area and the location of the land from Chapman Creek to the wharf. Black lines outward to the water show the breakwater position and the reclaimed land area for commercial buildings. Davis Bay Regional District HQ After checking seven possible sites for the office of the newly formed Sunshine Coast Regional District it was decided unanimously by the board of directors that a Davis Bay location would be most suitable. The office will be in the new Whitaker building on the highway. It will utilize what was intended as a suite and will be ready for occupancy by March 15. It will be on lease for one year at $110 a month rent with an option to continue the lease if necessary. The seven locations mentioned by the committee headed by director Cliff Gilker were the site selected, the old school building on the highway in Roberts Creek area, space in the Charles English office at Sunnycrest Plaza and space in the provincial recreation office in Sechelt, the Parker Hardware building, Sechelt's old municipal hall and Sunnycrest Motel. The regional directors now operate under four bylaws, the first known as the Regional District procedure bylaw which regulates the method of holding meetings, the second to supply remuneration for the directors at the rate of $25 per meeting, the third a budget bylaw and the fourth a bylaw to provide bank venue. The budget calls for an income of $39,500 of which $10,000 will come by government grant and the remaining $29,500 by taxation. Of this amount the regional district will have to find $27,892 while the village of Gibsons will provide $1,044 and Sechelt $564. The percentage break down of these amounts reveals that the regional district pays slightly under 91 percent of the budget, Gibsons a shade under six percent and Sechelt 3.2 percent. The board of directors has requisitioned $17,500 for administration expense, $1,000 for planning, $3,000 to cover the cost of a building inspector when appointed, $500 for an engineering consultant, $5,000 for garbage site acquisition and $2,500 for furniture. This totals $29,500 which with the government grant of $10,000 brings the total first year budget to $39,500. The bylaw enabling the directors to obtain funds with which to operate until taxes can be applied to expenditure calls for $15,000 to be raised through the Bank of Montreal at six percent interest to be covered by taxes as collected. This money will be taken out as required but the Committees were appointed by Chairman Norman Watson and they will be: A standing committee to keep in touch with, water developments, Eric Prittie, chairman, Lome Wolverton and Cliff Gilker; parks and recreation, on a study .basis for the time being, Cliff Gilker chair man with John Dunlop and Fred Feeney; finance and budget, Frank West; garbage, sewage and building bylaws, Frank West chairman, Louis Hansen, Lome Wolverton; advisory planning committee (zoning, parks, sub-divisions) government planning advisor to be provided at no cost, Lome Wolverton chairman, Frank West and Eric Prittie; garbage sites, John Dunlop- chairman, Louis Hansen and Fred Feeney; zoning policy,. Fred Feeney, chairman, John Dunlop, Lome Wolverton. The chairman commented that he would like to see the board get cracking on the garbage problem. As regards the sewage problem he urged that a bylaw be adopted to help control the serious problem of the future. As regards an ambulance which problem arose through a letter from Dan Firth, secretary of Sechelt and District Fire Prevention district, it was decided to a Regional fire district, he said, borrowing in anticipation of re- directors cannot go beyond thetaDle the issue as not being a $15,000 mark. pressing one at present.

Unity in the Community gets things done A legal view of the press Intrusion of government, courts, commissions and such like into private business and the privacy of citizens generally seems to be on the increase to such a degree that any evidence of a firm stand on limiting of public powers is newsworthy. A recent example is a ruling in the state of Michigan. When a movie theatre took a Battle Creek newspaper to court because it refused to print advertisements for art movies, on moral grounds, the theatre lost its case, first in a lower court and then on appeal. The court said what has been said before, that a court may not order a newspaper to publish anything, the Printed Word reports. One of the opinions cited in the ruling was from a court in Iowa: "The newspaper business is an ordinary business. It is a business essentially private in its nature ��� as private as that of the baker, grocer or milkman, all of which perform a service on which to a greater or lesser extent the communities depend but which bears no such relation to the public as to warrant its inclusion in the category of businesses charged with a public interest." Newspapers, butchers, bakers and candlestick makers are far more under the control of the public when they are treated as competitive private enterprises whose profits depend on the approval of readers and buyers than they will ever be if the day comes when they are overwhelmed by government regulations. That day could come and the consumers would not gain, they would lose. Come to think of it, that ruling down in Battle Creek has another newsworthy aspect. It came about because someone took a stand on a question of old-fashioned morals as opposed to the new morality, which is not new at all. It used to be called the work of the devil. The publication of news in Canadian newspapers, daily or weekly, is left entirely to the discretion of the publisher. There are laws' covering libel and slander for the protection of the public. A Sassenach's revenge? Bagpipes are listed as a musical instrument. This fact was battled over in the house of commons recently resulting in bagpipers in Canadian regiments being listed as musicians. Compen- diums of general information state (bagpipes are played chiefly in Scotland and Ireland. In Assyria, India and China in bygone days they were also used. Today they appear to be quite common in Italy and in some other Mediterranean countries. According to the BBC London Letter of recent date Pipe Major Iain McLeod of the Edinburgh Police Pipe band recorded four pipe tunes on a recording machine, so said Jack Inglis reporting in the BBC World Service program Scotland Today. The tape was sent to London to be transferred to a long playing record. More than 1,000 were made and at the time of reporting 400 bad been sold. Then a couple of the records were sent to Pipe Major McLeod in Edinburgh. Here comes the humiliation, one which will hit every Scot in a tender spot. The music had been transcribed from the tape to the disc ��� backwards. Not one of the 400 purchasers of these discs had complained. Some Sassenach if he ever finds his way to Edinburgh will ���have to have something equivalent to diplomatic immunity if he ���wants to get back to Sassenach country. His world will also be greatly reduced if he considers other countries where bagpipes are revered. COAST NEWS 19 YEARS tl.ll The 22nd birthday of Gibson* Women's Institute was celebrated at the Legion Hall Feb. 19. Guests arrived in costumes representing vegetables and flowers.

Huge Centennial Tattoo The Centennial Tattoo will be the subject of a 90-minute CBC television special and of a one- hour CBC radio special when it plays Empire Stadium, Vancouver, during June. The 1967 Tattoo will portray more than 300 years of Canada's military history ��� from Le Regiment de Carignan- Sailieres, dispatched to Canada by King Louis XIV of France in 1665, to the modern, mobile Canadian Armed Forces of today. Two Tattoo companies will perform in hockey arenas, fair grounds and sports stadiums from coast to coast, starting at Peterborough, Ont. in March For such large shows as Expo 67 and the Canadian National Exhibition, the two companies will unite and will be augmented by other military units so that as many as 1,700 will participate in a 2i/4-hour spectacular. BE A POOL BOOSTER Deviations from church discipline and practice arising out of ecumenical enthusiasm are a matter of concern to the Anglican Church of Canada. The church has played an important role in bringing about a relaxation of tensions that for centuries have been divisive religious factors. But its bishops stress that negotiations with other churches have union and full communion as their objective and until this is attained Anglican clergy and laity should observe canonical laws and regulations. In connection with marriages of Anglicans and non-Anglicans the House of Bishops has reaffirmed that Anglican clergy may accept invitations to participate in services in other communions provided that no breach of the matrimonial discipline of the Anglican Church of Canada is involved. The House of Bishops recognizes that the instruction on mixed marriages issued in Rome last March by the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith represents a real effort by the Roman Catholic Church to solve some af the problems involved in this difficult question. However, the bishops feel that the instruction does not really succeed in meeting the Anglican viewpoint. Therefore, in the case of a marriage in a Roman Catholic church involving an Anglican who has given a pre-nuptial undertaking respecting the nurture of children in the Roman Catholic faith, the participation ���of an Anglican priest is not permitted. Such participation, by the terms of the Rome decree, is limited to a post-service exhortation and word of goodwill. If the Anglican party to the marriage has made no pre-nuptial agreement, the regulation does not apply and each case must be dealt with individually. At the marriage of an Anglican and- a member of another communion in an Anglican church, a non-Anglican priest or minister may be invited to assist, reading from the Anglican marriage service such prayers as are generally allowed by diocesan bishops. To meet increasing pressures for inter-communion and to regularize practices that have developed in some churches, the Anglican House of Bishops has modified regulations concerning the administration of Holy Communion to unconfirmed persons. The bishops stipulate, however, that Anglican clergy are not authorized to issue any open invitation to Holy Communion. The new ruling, to be used by diocesan bishops at their discretion, would permit Holy Communion to be administered to the following baptized persons of other communions: Isolated communicants who have no regular opportunity of receiving the sacrament from their own ministers; staff members and pupils in hostels, DECORATIONS ADVICE To assist local Centennial committees, the provincial committee has provided brochures and pamphlets with prices from Canadian manufacturers who are producing a wide and colorful selection of Centennial items. Local committees will assist you in placing orders for souvenirs and decorations to help make 1967 an exciting Confederation Centennial year in British Columbia. $1,000 AWARD A ten-line poem to celebrate the Canadian Centennial, at $100 a line, will win some lucky Canadian poet $1,000. The award is offered by the Atlantic Ad- v o c a t e, Fredericton, New Brunswick and entries must be received before March 31, 1967. There is just one catch. The poem must have a ten-line version in French as well as in English, for the contest is a bilingual one. But the Atlantic Advocate editors point out that would-be poet laureates can join up with a French-speaking friend to do their translation, and submit a joint entry.

Send to "Point of Law," c^/o this newspaper. A number of letters have been received enquiring about the unpaid sellors lien. There is no such thing under our law. A sellor who sells an object cannot, if he does not receive payment, exercise any lien over the object. He cannot, that is, seize the object in question. This rule may, at first glance, appear harsh, but it must be bourne in mind that the sellor has delivered the goods (without securing the sale price) and other parties dealing with the buyer (for example, a later buyer of the goods) will assume that the first buyer owns them ��� because he has possession of them. Buyer may become bankrupt. In this case, the goods become the possession of the trustee in bankruptcy and the proceeds from the sale of them are available to satisfy creditors. The sellor can very easily secure his position by selling by way of conditional sale agreement or bill of sale and POINT OF LAW py _/v f-'racticinf oLawytp chattel mortgage. These will be the subject of a separate article. A lien is lost once possession is given. The right of lien, in general, remains so long as the sellor has possession. There may be a perfectly valid sale of a large bulky object ��� let us say a steam shovel ��� without possession passing to the buyer. The buyer can't pick such an object up and take it with him and in such cases usually makes arrangements to return later with a truck to take possession. The sellor does not have to give possession till he is paid. An unpaid sellors lien does exist, however, where possession bas been parted with a carrier. Let us say sellor has sold to buyer with no definite arrangements concerning credit and sellor is to ship the goods by rail from Vancouver to buyer in Calgary. Sellor, after parting with possession of the goods to the carrier learns of buyer's insolvency. He (or his agent) may take the goods off ���the train at, say, Banff. Buyer, however, may steal a march if he learns of sellor's intention and obtains possession of the goods from the railroad company at, say, Revelstoke.

DEAR DORIS advice from Doris Clark Still in love Charities require official receipts DEAR DORIS ���- About a month ago my boy friend (17), whom I will call D., and I, broke up. I am 16. "We loved each other very much (or what we thought was love). When he said he didn't want to go steady any more, I agreed that we would still be friends. But he is now going with another girl. She has one of the worst reputations in the school. She gives herself away to boys, if you know what I mean. She has long black hair, which she combs so it covers half of her face. She also wears cakes of make-up and white lipstick, and her skirts are so short she may as well not wear one. I heard from a few kids at school that he is going with this girl just to make me jealous.-D. and I both come from respectable families. Should I try to get him back? Still In Love With Him, But Trying To Hide It DEAR S.I.L.W.H.B.T.T.H.I. ��� Don't kid yourself that a boy will spend evening after evening with another girl just in the hope that someone he has deliberately broken off with will be jealous. D. goes out with White Lips because she fits his present mood. Here's your chance to broaden your outlook and play the field. Forget that all-embracing word "love" for a while. Want my leaflet on the subject? DEAR DORIS ��� My mother and father will be married 50 years in March and because of their poor health it will be impossible for us to have a large celebration. As we are a small family and all situated over 100 miles from "home," could you suggest how we could plan a happy day for them when it may be impossible for us to get there? Also, would it be ethical for me to write and remind cousins and aunts about the up-coming anniversary? I do not want to solicit gifts for my parents, but feel a card or letter to them would be appreciated. Daugher And Son DEAR DAUGHTER AND. SON ��� Much can be done by just taking a little thought. (1) Fifty years of wedded bliss are worth a picture and story in the local newspaper. Write to the editor yourself. (2) Send personal notes to their old and treasured friends; say you are planning a card shower for your parents, as a Golden Wedding celebrations; and that a card or note from them would be prized. (3) Arrange for a cake, dinner, flowers to be sent in. (4) Far better than anything else is to get there to share the day with them. Turn handsprings to make it! Confidential to Tempted ��� There's nothing" abnormal about being, tempted. Everybody has wrong impulses. Just how well you handle them determines the kind of person you are. A Chinese proverb says: You can't stop birds from flying over your head, but you can prevent them from building nests in your hair! DEAR DORIS ��� Is it proper at a small wedding for the girl standing .up with the bride to wear the same color suit as the bride? Also, could you suggest a color of accessories that could be worn with plum besides winter white? Bridesmaid DEAR BRIDESMAH> ��� Better for the attendant's suit to be a different color. The bride has the limelight on her, day; others should not seem to rival her, but rather to be her helpers. Accessories to plum could be a softer shade of plum, or white, or creamy white, or silver gray. Toronto Tol _ram Ntws Strvico | CROSSWORD + + + By A. C. Gordon ACROSS ��� Infinite know-how Strike ...

This regulation went into effect on January 1. Information that this was to occur was contained in an article in the Coast News dated December 15. The change will hot affect donations made prior to Dec. 31 of last year. To qualify for a deduction this year the gift must have been made to a registered Canadian Charitable organizatian issuing an official receipt. Charitable organizations must register and applications for registration can be made on form T2050 along with a prescribed form of return of information which is form T2052. Both can be obtained at district taxation offices. Income tax deductions on charitable donations will be allowed when an official receipt covers the donation on one's income, tax return. The receipts must be numbered and if an error is made on filling out a receipt it must be kept as part of the record of that receipt book. In other words every receipt or duplicate must be available when required. As there are numerous churches involved in a charge or parish which will contain more than one church it will be the general practice for the churches in that parish or charge to register in the name of the parish or charge and not the individual church according to available information. If an individual church or other organization which is part of a larger organization decides to issue its own receipts it must be registered with the income tax division under its own individual name and must keep books which would be available for inspection. Donations made before registration can be covered with a temporary receipt which must be replaced at a later date by an official receipt when the organization involved with the donations has received its registration number which must appear on all receipts. The Coast News will have some booked receipts available shortly for those organizations who will find it necessary to register as a charitable organization. Those desiring further information should write to the Chari- Coast News, Feb. 16, 1967. 3 table Organizations Section, Department of National Revenue, Taxation Division, Ottawa 2, Ontario. AVA8LABLE FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE Centennial Medallions 50c St Mary's Hospital Auxiliaries Cook Book $1.75 at the Coast News GIBSONS Burns Night celebrated By ED. THOMSON About a month ago the editor instructed his reporter to procure a ticket for the Burns Night celebration at Port Mellon. But obtaining the necessary ducat was another matter. "All sold out," said the chairman. "Sorry. A Complimentary to the Press? You must be kidding. Besides we don't want advertising." The editor, being a stubborn cuss said you'd better see the secretary of the Burns Night brouhaha, maybe if you talk nice to her? So on my next trip to Port Mellon, I saw the ser- retary. Courteously (but firmly. I was told there were just no tickets to be had. Even the blandishment of my cousin, a doughty Scot, got me nowhere. I was cast down, disconsolate, and the thought of facing the boss didn't improve my morale one bit. On our return to Gibsons, my cousin by way of consolation told me the following account of a Burns Night dinner a few years ago. According to this gentleman, he had had better luck in getting in the big nicht, in fact, he had been invited to participate, kilt, bagpipes and a' The routine was, he and his good wife would present themselves at the door of the Roberts Creek Community Hall where the big affair was to take place. Then on a given signal, he would sally in and play in the haggis. All went well up to this point. As he stepped into the hall at the given signal, pipes a'blawin, he felt a most excruciating pain in the most tender part of his posterior. Gad, stabbed, that was it! But on looking down, he was just in time to see a local worthy now called to his just rewards, by the name of Shaky Miller, slyly withdrawing a fork from under my cousin's kilt! So Port Mellon had its annual Burns Night on Saturday and from all accounts it was a real bang-up affair. Ah well, maybe next year we'll get to go-to . the doings, haggis and a'. Meantime we are serving notice on that august body that controls the sale on tickets that we are making our reservations for the next Burns blow-out at Port Mellon here and now. What's more we will pay cash down for them out of our private pairse! COAST NEWS WANT ADS Phone 886-2622 Saddle up a snowmobile - and hang on for a breathtaking rodeo-on-skids!

There will be a Valentine social Saturday night and tickets are now available from any member of the executive.���L. D. Some 25 members of the Port Mellon Canadian Forest Products pulp mill Safety First committee were honored at a dinner Tuesday night of last week in the mill cafeteria. Barry McDonald, general manager of sales gave an interesting speech which while it did not stress safety gave his listeners a hint of some of the dangers salesmen had in foreign countries. Speaking on mill work in India he said that it was normal in lorest work there for one snake bite casualty per day and possibly two tiger casualties. One mill in India with a staff of 1,500 turns out about 300 tons of pulp per day. This means that three men take the place of one man in Canada. One of the three is a sort of standby for the other two when sickness arises. Mr. McDonald spoke of his experiences in Japan where Canadians are very acceptable. The Japanese like to come to Canada where they find social life more to their liking. As an example he said Japanese officials are quite happy when they are invited to Joe1 Macey's home where they meet his wife and family. Women in Japan are kept more in the background. They regard such an event at Joe's, place as a big* thing, he added. The experiences he unfolded covered Japan, the Phillipines, Australia, India, Europe, South America, South Africa and the United Kingdom. Europe today he found rather sedate. Today's market for pulp products had to be world wide owing to limitations of the North American market. He explained that Halifax was closer to London than it was to Vancouver. Development on the coast was not so much in kraft products as it was in newsprint. Labor costs had doubled in the last fewr years and. fie ^expects wages to double in the "next 15 years. Productivity has to be kept up which will mean bigger and better machinery. He stressed the Japanese market where he said there had been a tremendous boost to morale as a result of the attention beng paid to Japanese requirements. Chris Christianson, assistant mill manager urged his listeners to involve as many men as possible in safety measures. Do not sit back and lose the safety record which for the last quarter of 1966 won the pulp mills' safety award. A new man needs a lot of help to make him efficiently safety minded. Scouts hike Last Salurday Gibsons A and B Cub packs, taking advantage of good weather, took part in hikes. A pack with plenty of adult supervision tackled the Knob while B pack inspected Grantham's bridge to see what was going on. Then they visited the Hoops home for refreshments. Baden Powell week falls on Feb. 19 to 26 and A pack will have a window display in Don's Shoe Store and B pack at the Kruse Drug store. Father and Son night will fall on Feb. 24 at 7 p.m. in the United Church hall. Cubs and Scouts will provide entertainment. On Sunday, Feb. 26 a Thinking Day service will be held at 2 p.m. in the United Church hall. The public is invited to this service. On Feb. 27 an overnight hike is banned for Scouts. Work is progressing on the Scout hall and dads expect to have the roof on over the weekend. SEEK NEW TRUCK Trustees of Gibsons Fire Protection district are applying for funds from the department of municipal affairs in Vctoria for the purchase of a new truck. George Hostland, representing Local 297 extended appreciation of the work done adding that he was proud of the work some men had done. Ed. Sherman, mill manager, passed on Mr. Rustemeyer's congratulations on the mill's 1966 record. Mr. Sherman also thanked Norman Rudolph for the capable job he had clone along with Peter Madison, first aid supervisor. He described last year's record as a bang- up good job and urged the staff approach a realistic goal. The attitude of the year could be bettered. If the right attitude towards safety can be passed on, the job can be done, he said. Members of the committee were presented with a gift for their efforts during the past year.

Dateline Victoria The following excerpts from the maiden speech, in the provincial legislature by Hon. Mrs. Isabel Dawson are those that specifically mention the immediate area of the Sunshine' Coast: The constituency that I represent has the unique distinction over other ridings in this province of ours, in that it is not named after a city or an area or a district, but rather after this historic figure, Sir Alexander Mackenzie. We are also proud that the pioneers medallion, that is being presented to the senior citizens of this province on this, Canada's great Centennial Year, bears a portrait of this great man, Mackenzie. * * * I am also proud myself of the fact that my father, who celebrated his 85th birthday two days before the opening of this session, will be a recipient of one of these medallions. ; :it^'_fea seems a little strange fo:"ine thalTyea*pago, just four months previous^ to moving to British Columbia from Alberta, our class in school, in presenting a historical pageant in a festival, I was given the part of Alexander Mackenzie to portray. I was thrilled at the part given me. However, little did I know that some day in the future, I would have the privilege and honor of representing in this legislative assembly, the people from the riding named after the same great explorer. I would be derelict in my duties if I did not mention the need of development of Skook- umchuk Rapids park on the Sechelt Inlet. I have seen the Reversing Ralls of St. John, New Brunswick, and I will say in all honesty they haven't a patch on Skookumchuk at full tide. The tourist potential of this area by the extension of the Egmont road to the land that is set aside for the park and the development of the park itself is tremendous. I, therefore, ask the minister of recreation and minister of highways that they combine their efforts and let's get this area open for the public enjoyment. It will soon more than pay for itself in tourist dollars, plus allowing the people to view this phenomenon. * * * I must also at this time, congratulate the minister of municipal affairs and his department and to the people of the Sunshine Coastt who have put so much time and effort in the formation of a regional district. The letters patent have just been handed over in the last two or three weeks. Although there are many problems still to overcome, the end result, I am sure, will be well worth it, for through this district many things like the disposal of garbage, water requirements, fire protection, etc. will be resolved. Also, it shouldn't be too long until Bella Ooola will decide to incorporate into a village. We are all pleased, especially the people in the Gibsons area, that at long last the Granthams bridge project is now underway and we thank the minister of highways for pursuing this project. It is to be hoped, also, that we will soon see the S-curve at the, north side of Gibsons removed and that the North Road also, wiU. be improved in order that traffic from the Powell River area and the upper peninsula may be diverted by way of the road both going and coming from the Langdale terminal. * * * There is no end to the grumbling and discontent of committees and individuals using /the Jervis Inlet and Langdale ferries. To be fair, I must say that the B.C. Ferries has co-operated at the Langdale run, as they are now having hourly service on the weekend. This is good indeed. However, another problem experienced at Langdale and Earl's Cove and Salitery Bay particularly, but also at the Powell River side of the island run, that is insufficient ferry parking space. There being insufficient parking within the terminals at peak periods, vehicles have to park along the main highway taking up one lane of a two lane highway. Vehicles, in order to continue on to their destination, especially Port Mellon and Saltery Bay, travel on the wrong side of the highway. After describing the pioneering aspects of earlier days in British Columbia Mrs. Dawson continued with the following: * ��� * * Mackenzie, too, has its share of pioneers who have given much to this province. I think of the Gibsons, after who Gibsons Landing is named, of the Chamberlains, the Fletchers, the Winegardens and others from the same area who came there in the 1870s. Of Harry Roberts who had the first flume that carried shinglebolts down ��� to tidewater and after whom Roberts Creek is named. I think of the Cooks and his daughter Mrs. Sam Dawe of the Sechelt area. I think of the Kleins in Pender Harbour, of the Lees and Griffiths at Egmont, the Youngs the Langs, the McRaes, the Bonhams, the Dunns and the Thulins, but to mention a few in the Powell River area. As we celebrate this Centen: nial Year I am proud of the fact that I am a descendant, on both sides of the family, of those earlier pioneers, the United Empire Loyalists. I am proud to rejoice with all Canadians in all walks of life, regardless of race or creed, along with our original Canadians, our Native Indians, in that we have come of age! We are fortunate indeed to have been born in this wonderful country and to live in this fabulous province. Ours is a heritage without equal. I only hope and pray that I may be true to the heritage that has been handed to us. 6 Coast News, Feb. 16, 1967. Gibsons possible industrial zoning outlined UPPER FLOOR PLAN no* ci��.��r. Floor area wastage reduced Plan No. 2447 (copyright No. 117093) ' 2447 sq. ft. Scattered throughout the older residential areas of our cities, and in many country places, are large homes, with a lot of1 floor space, badly arranged, because the concept of designing for maximum use of space was not fully appreciated. Plan No. 2447 then, is a modern day interpretation of the two story home, with the available space well distributed, and with a minimum of floor area taken up with unnecessary hall and waste space. The main floor features a large foyer with a curved stairwell to the second floor. The living room which stretches front to back of the house has a large bay window at the front and view windows at the rear, and an outside wall fireplace. The possibilities for interesting decor are. absolutely endless in this spacious room. A formal dining room is conveniently located between the living room and the kitchen, while the kitchen itself has the efficiency of the modern U arrangement of kitchen cupboards, and room for a large family dining area under the window. A door to the double carport leads out of the kitchen. There is downstairs plumbing convenience and a den with its 'own fireplace completes the main floor arrangements. The den could double as a bedroom if desired (imagine the luxury of a bedroom with a fireplace!) The second floor has four ' The Uiueen Audience bedrooms and main bathroom. The master bedroom not only has its own fireplace, but plumbing "en suite" also and a walk-in closet. The second bedroom has a walk-in closet, and the other two bedrooms are well endowed with closet space. The bathroom features double washbasins for convenience of all members of the family. A sundeck which is over the carport is accessible through a hall between the second and third bedroom. The carport itself is a double one, with a divider between so that each car has its own stall. Not only is there all this living space on the. main and second floor, but in addition there is a full basement, which provides for expansion into a recreation room, additional living quarters and laundry. This is really a beautiful home that would look well on any site, either city or country. Cedar siding, cedar shakes on the roof, and half timbering add to the charm of it, while ���the porch is covered over by the low banging roof supported by ornamental posts.

Due to the limited Donor helps to get organ An anonymous donor contributing $900 will enable Gibsons United Church choir to in- stal a new organ in the church. This was announced at last Wednesday night's meeting of the United Church West Howe Sound charge meeting in the church hall. Previous to the meeting of the board of the charge, Gibsons church board met and with the advice of Mr. E. Burritt, representing the choir, decided to support the choir in its effort to obtain a new organ. Mr. A. E. Ritchey was elected chairman of the* church board. The Howe Sound charge board received reports from the more than 25 church organizations within the charge and part of Gibsons United Church, Roberts Creek church and that of Wilson Creek. These reports covered the year's operations of the women's groups, Sunday Schools, youth organizations and other groups. These reports revealed that the women of the three churches were doing a considerable amount of work at all three points. Rev. R. R. Morrison opened the board meeting of which Rev. M. Cameron was chairman with Mr. W. S. Potter as secretary.

We therefore recommend that the Industrial Zoning at the present time be restricted to the three industrial properties already zoned for industry. These are the marine machine shop on Marine Drive, the boat works on Winn Road, and the logging equipment maintenance yard on the Sechelt Highway. The proposed requirements of the Light Industrial Zone would exclude any obnoxious or potentially hazardous uses. Activities of this type should be located away from all other urban development. Any new industrial development would be conditional on an amendment to the Plan Section of the Zoning Bylaw. This would provide Council with the opportunity to examine each proposal in detail. In terms of long range planning we do not see a need for a light industrial zone within the present village limits. The range of automotive and marine servicing activities permtted in the Highway Commercial and Waterfront Zones should be adequate to handle local needs. WATERFRONT ZONE The Waterfront Zone is intended as a broad zone to cover a wide range of development related to the harbor in such a way that the permitted uses and forms of development will fit into an overall plan for the area. We suggest that all development in the waterfront zone 'be rigidly controlled through the Plan Section of the Bylaw. Existing building areas in the zone should be designated as "siting areas." All new development would be on the basis of amendments to the Plan Section. Considerable discretion should be exercised in making these amendments to ensure that new development follows a logical pattern and is compatible with its surroundings and avoids unnecessary view 'obstruction. No new development should be permitted between Prowse Road and Truman Road unless the developer is prepared to develop the full depth from Dougal Road to the Harbor. This would mean that he would have to control lots facing each other on both sides of Bay Road and acquire the intervening road allowance. Providing a public right-of- way along or near the waterfront isi another consideration. We suggest that provision of such a right-of-way be a condition of development. This will mean that eventually it will be possible for people to walk all the way along the harbor front. We propose that siting within the Waterfront Zone be handled via the Plan Section of the Bylaw. This will mean that the requirements can be adjusted in each case to suit, the particular type of development. We believe that this is necessary due to the wide range of different types of development that can be expected. PUBLIC DEVELOPMENT ZONE The purpose of the Public Development Zone is to define those areas to be used for public purposes. This zone will enable Council to express its intention to set aside certain lands for public projects and to protect them in the meantime from other ���types of development. The zone would also cover existing public development areas such as parks and the civic area. While much of the Public Development Zone would be open land, parks and school grounds, we suggest that the siting regulations for the Multiple Residential Zone apply to buildings in the Public Development Zone. A separate zone for parks would appear unnecessary in Gibsons Landing.

NO GAMES LESS THAN $10 $50 MINIMUM JACKPOT DOOR PRIZE . FUN FOR ALL Thurs, Feb. 16 8 p.m. SHARP LEGION HALL GIBSONS By ED. THOMSON To the motorist rounding the curving, shoreline highway of Davis Bay on a bright and sunny day, the scene is delightful. You pause a moment to look out across the Strait of Georgia, past Mission Point and Trail Island to the mist- shrouded shores of Nanaimo, indeed a pleasing sight. Never for a moment does it occur that Davis Bay is a graveyard of ships, the latest victim the tug Gulf Master, now another unsolved mystery of the sea. There is one man who holds no illusions concerning Davis Bay. He is Ron Whitaker, a pioneer of those parts. Mr. Whitaker has lived and been active in the development of this area since 1890. He and his wife have seen and known of too many ships going to a watery grave in this unprotected and precarious anchorage. Mr. Whitaker, when asked his opinion on the possible cause of this latest marine disaster, pointed out, that tugs have been known to turn turtle and go down like a rock with all hands on board and leaving no trace Great February MATTRESS SA First Lady by'Serfa' Box and Mattress Reg. ea. $90.50 February Special $57.50 Ambassador Deluxe Box and Mattress Reg. ea. $84.95 Special;.Sale Price $47.50 PRICES YOU CAN HOT EQUAL JAY-BEE FURNITURE GIBSONS Phone 886-2346 of wreckage, as might have been in the case of the metal- hulled tug Gulf Master. The ship could have sprung a plate with the same fatal result. He was inclined to discount the theory that she had struck a rock. . Whatever happened in the scud-driven bay, that January morning whipped by a howling sou-easter, the sea has refused to give up the grim secret of the cause of the sinking of the Riv-tow Marine's well-founded tug. Ron Whitaker also recalled other sinkings in the Bay ��� the oldest of these to his knowledge was the steamer Pastime in 1894, the burning and foundering of the steamer Rupert in 1907, the Babine in 1909, and the Balcarra in 1912. She piled up on a rock in Agamemnon Channel on a dark and blowey night, as the result of her watch mistaking the Will-of-the Wisp navigation light on a rock for that of a logging raft. Then there was the tug Lions Gate which burned and sank in Sechelt Harbor, December 1932. It is little wonder the search for the tug Gulf Master was impeded by the presence of so many old wrecks on the floor of the Bay. Davis Bay, deceptive and exposed to the vagai'ies of the elements, is indeed a trap for unfortunate and unwary ships seeking the uncertain shelter along its curving shore and Sechelt Harbor. Mr. Whitaker admitted that the long needed breakwater out from Sechelt might well have saved the Gulf Master and the five members of. the crew on board her. The construction of such a breakwater however ���would be a'long and costly project and could only be accomplished by the realization of the provincial government as a vitally necessary task, especially in this age when governments seem .to have com-, mand of the necessary millions to spend on so many other less needed items on their budgets. The Gulf Master was speeding back to Vancouver with radar and mechanical trouble when it sank. Capt. James Gibsons, chief dispatcher for Rivtow Marine CHIROPRACTIC OFFICE MONDAY _ THURSDAY 1678 Marine Drive���Gibsons Phone 886-9843 Ltd., the tug's owners told Coronor Eric Paetkau last Wednesday night that the extent of the trouble was not known. The tug had had serious engine trouble before the diesel engine exploded off Point Atkinson last March, injuring one crewman. A six man jury listened to 18 witnesses for just over four hours Wednesday night before returning a verdict that the vessel's mate, Rodney Edward Seymour, died from drowning and exposure. No blame was attached to anyone. Seymour was plucked from the sea by an air-sea helicopter shortly after Gulf Master sank, but was pronounced dead on arrival at Sechelt Hospital. The bodies of the other men are still missing. Witnesses said Gulf Master appeared to be travelling at an excessive speed and was making heavy going in comparatively calm seas. No one saw the tug go down. J. A. Smith of the department of transport steamship inspection service said Gulf Master had more than adequate safety equipment and had been fully inspected. Dr. Paetkau, who instructed the jury to return a verdict of accidental death, said the sinking remained a mystery. Etiquette By ROBERTA LEE Q. Is it all right for me to have my birthstone, instead of the traditional diamond, for my engagement ring? My friends say this is out of the question. A. Your friends are wrong. It is your privilege to wear any kind of engagement ring you wish, and any kind is perfectly proper. _Q. Is it proper to send greeting cards, such as anniversary or birthday cards, to friends who are in mourning? A. If.the sentiment is appropriate, yes. If the words express a thought of friendly sympathy or good wishes, it would be all right, but not if the message is gay or humorous. Q. When visiting in a friend's home and there is an open dish of candy on the table near your chair, aren't you privileged to help yourself? A. Indeed not. Q.What is the correct way to acknowledge an invitation to a christening? A. Either by note or telephone is correct.

BUCKLEY Plant Research Institute, Ottawa Sugar maples, birches, walnuts, beeches and hornbeams should be pruned before the end of February for they bleed profusely when cut later in the season. Such bleeding is not entirely fatal but it disturbs the even flow of sap throughout the tree and may cause die- back in some of the branches. Pruning is an operation that must be carefully studied before the actual work is started. You need to have a reason for removing every branch or twig. Of course dead branches or those showing . signs of decay are removed without hesitation. Do not tackle a large tree yourself except for branches within easy reach. Arborists have the right equipment for such jobs and are heavily insured. Shade trees are pruned to develop strong frameworks that will survive windstorms and to shape young trees according to their ultimate uso. If a wide-spreading tree is desired, it may be trained that way, or if a columnar tree has been planted, this shape must be retained. Eliminate- weak crotches. These occur when two leading shoots arise from the main trunk or when a strong side shoot develops and grows upwards parallel to the main shoot. If two leaders are allowed to develop or grow, there will be a time when they will split apart at the point where the two branches arise. Avoid Beauty hints i Phone 836-2442 By LYNN CARTER Q. What's the best way to minimize a really low forehead? A. With hair dressed in .bangs. Have them cut quite far back on your head and swept flat across the brow. Or you can give the illusion .of some height by using a lighter shade of foundation at the hairline. Or you can change your hairline by waxing it as high as you like. Q. How is eyeliner correctly applied? A. Start it at the inside corner of your eye and draw a thin ribbon of color as close as possible to the base of your upper lashes, continuing the line all the way across to the outer corner, but not beyond it. Apply this liner after the shadow, and before the mascara. This beauty aid accentuates your eyes and makes them look larger. Q. What can I do about a nose that tends to turn pink in the cold? A. Try a lighter covering foundation at the tip, powder over it, AND tip your chin with a little cream or dry rouge. Since then both nose and chin look pinky, your nose will stand out less. Q. How is cake foundation best applied? A. Use a moistened cotton ball or natural sponge for smoothing this on, and if your skin is oily, use an astringent on the sponge instead of water. Ue light downward strokes, and make sure the sponge is neither too dry nor too wet, or your makeup will streak. Blend carefully on your face.and throat�� and blot with tissue if desired. This is an easy type of skin covering to work with, and it gives good coverage too, but should not be used regularly on skin that is too dry. Q. Is rouge applied before or after the face powder? A. Dry rouge is applied after powdering, liquid or cream rouge before. this by allowing only one main leading shoot to develop. If the tree has already grown to a large size, the only thing to do is lo brace it by bolting or cabling the two main trunks together. This is done with a long rod, threaded at both ends, which is pushed through holes bored in the twin trunks and bolted at each outer side. The next step in pruning a tree is to cut out the least important one of each pair of crossing branches. If any branch grows faster than the rest, shorten it so as to obtain a more shapely tree. Large branches should be cut off carefully, flush with the trunk or branch from which they arise. Take off these heavy limbs by first making a cut underneath the branch a few inches from the main trunk. Then, from above, saw it two or three inches outward from where the undercut is made until the branch is off. This will leave a stump, which should be cut off flush with the trunk. The reason for the undercut is to prevent the bark from tearing right down the trunk. After making large cuts, cover all wounds with a good tree wound preparation. If you haven't any of this handy and only a few branches are cut, you may cover the wound with polyethylene, making sure that it seals the wound completely. Again, don't prune maple or* birch after the first of March. Fruit trees should be pruned with the following objectives: developing a sound framework of well-spaced branches, keeping the trees moderately high so that the fruit is easily picked, and removing excessive growth. Keep the centre of the tree fairly open so that air will move through it and pests may be controlled more easily. On apple trees and many shade trees you may notice a number of strong shoots that arise from the large main branches and grow up through the center of the tree. These are sucker growths or sprouts and they should be removed clean to the trunk. By first removing suckers and branches that cross, a good start is made and the rest will be much easier. Remember, too, that apples bear best when the new shoots are cut back to one or two buds and spur growth is encouraged. This makes for a sturdier tree and one that will not break when fully laden with fruit.

BPW to assist student Sunshine Coast Business & Professional Women's Club dinner meeting at the Mala- wahana Drive-in Dining Room on Tuesday evening Feb. 7 welcomed two guests from Gibsons, Mrs. L. Macey and Mrs. Anderson. Following the dinner, Mrs. J. Dunlop, president, proceeded with the usual business meeting and notice was given of two coming events, the International Night banquet of the Victoria Club, Feb. 25, and the regional conference of Lower Mainland clubs in Vancouver on March 12. A new club has been formed at Williams Lake, and its Charter Night would shortly take place. Reports of the various committees were presented and the past president, Mrs. Jo. Benjafield stated that an application had been received for financial assistance from Miss Georgina Dellar of Madeira Park. This 18-year-old student, crippled by polio in childhood, had been accepted for a commercial course at Burnaby Institute of Technology. The club voted that the money for a bursary last summer, not presented due to the lack of a suitable candidate,- be given to Miss Dellar o enable her to further her education and give her the opportunity of obtaining suitable employment. The Candlelight ceremony of the International Federation of B.P.W. clubs was ably presented by Mrs. Doreen Lee and Mrs. Jean Jeffries and the 36 candles lighted denoting the 36 federations and associated clubs was an impressive sight. The message from. Lady Lit- tlewood, the International President, added to its solemnity. She pointed out that there were many aspects and trends to be considered in The Challenge of a Changing World in Employ ment, this year's International theme and that as wives and mothers, employers and employees, as women active in public life, we all had a vital part to play. In her view, we must work for equal education, training and employment conditions for all, and for an end to exploitation of one race by another and the prejudice which still exists against women at work, debarring them from promotion and training schemes open to men.
