Mrs. Elsie Leek passed away in Victoria on Jan. 4 at the age of 64. Her father, the Jate Robert Stephen; purchased 35 acres which were part of the original Roberts Property^in 1910, and inbuilt -the-first" shijftap'house- in the district, commuting in his 14 ft. sail boat from Vancouver. Shortly afterward he and his wife brought their two children up for a year in order, to/bring the school enrolment to a sufficient number to open the first school which was built on. the Roberts property. They returned^ to Vancouver and thereafter spent summers, and holidays at the Creek, during .which : time 7 they (built ten they; moved up permahehtiy.

Word, from Vancouver .following the handing down of.the result of arbitration hearings involving - Sechelt Waterworks Ltd" and the Sunshine Coast Regional District board over,a price for the water, system' has. resulted in what was described as a com- p'rdmise, falling "between the two figures offered. - .'���'.���"��� A letter published in the Aug- 2*7 issue^of the Coast News signed i by ^J. G. Baillie, general manager of Sechelt Waterworks Ltd; is'reproduced with salient facts only picked out as follows: Negotiations between ther re^- giohal board and our company started in October, 1968, at a meeting in .Vancouver. .The regional board made a.verbal offer of $50,000 cash to us for purchase of our water system assets. The writer made it quite clear then to the board representatives that their offer could only be submitted to company directors for their consideration. In November, 1968, we made an offer to sell shareholders' equity in our company to the regional district for $90,000 and a further meeting was held between the two parties in Vancouver in February, 1969. At this meeting, it was pointed out to the regional board that this method of purchase would also mean their undertaking the company's assets:and liabilities^ land th^:��?:rii:ost sigmfican^^ltem -of'- these, other than the physical assets, was a debt to the parent company, Union Steamships Limited, of approximately $20,- 000, covering advances to' and prior subsidization.... of .SecheltV Waterworks by the parent com-; pany. . ..\ :-r- , On April 30, we submitted an offer to sell our fixed assets to: the district for a price of $121,-- 000. The district countered with- an. offer of $60,000, which was refused. The regional district, through their splicitor, presented us with - an alleged expropriation notice on June ,6, 1969, and advertised same in local newspapers about that time. They later informed us the purported expropriation had'taken effect on. July 2,-; 1969,: and requested our co-operation in turning over control of the system and customer accounts records to them. We have refused to do so, on. legal advice that the alleged expropriation is null and void, and that we are stilt the true and lawful owners. ���-.. Near the end of the Sechelt Waterworks Ltd. letter appeared the following Not. only will there be expensive litigation and advertising costs, but should the issue eventually go to arbitration, we will claim an amount pf over $160,000 for" our physical assets. This is based on a recent appraisal of our system carried out for this purpose by a reliable consulting engineer, who has solid-substantiating records to back up fhis valuation; We^ will alio claim "���t>tBer'"costs" and" values ^liich will push the total claim to a much higher figure. This conditional notice of claim has already been filed with the regional district. Cress well shots on view - The Arts Council's . Gallery shop dn the Credit Union Building, Sechelf will open its 1970 season on Wednesday Jan. 14 with a display of photographs by Mr. George Cresswell of Granthams Landing. Mr. and,Mrs. Cresswell have Idved in Granthams for over 20 years and retired now for several years Mr^ Cresswell keeps busy with a wide variety of interests including photography and gardening for which he is well known locally. Asked how long lie has been interested in photography, Mr. Cresswell replies that he can remember that first pinhole camera he was given at the age of 12 very,vividly. The pictures chosen;, for Ibis exhibition are' all black and whites revealing Mr. Cresswells interest in texture, depth and feeling and his ability to use his camera to produce a work of art. Revealed too is the art ists .eye for beauty in everyday things and in ordinary places which we might otherwise take for granted. The show includes many local studies of the Sunshine Coasts justly famed land and sea scapes, including some happy reminders of last years snow. The Camera has however been farther afield and recorded the poetry caught in cement: architectural forms at UBC. The grandeur of Yosemite can be contrasted with the grace of palms along the Caribean coasts. This display will be of interest not' only to those who aspire to use a camera for more than just a record of personal events but .to- all, those who appreciate poetry., rhythm, balance and proportion, the component parts of any art form. The display will be mounted until'Jan. 24 and the Gallery is open Wednesday through Saturday from 10 am. to 4 pm.

The financial vortex in which the provincial government finds itself is increasing its worries. Failing to take into account- teacher salary increases and inflation generally, because of its money worries it has made the education department school financing look as though it was formulated with the aid of a ouija board. With teacher salary increases for 1970 rarely being below 7 percent and inflation since 1969 surpassing a three percent figure, the 110 percent of last year's formula as a basis for the 1970 budget was far less than a faint hope. This can be multiplied by adding the results of several years inflation and the parsimonious attitude in doling out necessary funds in a growing economy and increasing school populations. It seems so unusual that a government which has boasted of splendid surpluses each year should find itself behind a great big eight ball after close to 18 years in office. After having milked all the Crown corporation funds at a low interest rate the premier finds himself facing a money market that will not bend to suit him. Because of this, hospitals, schools and municipalities along with other sections of governmental operation are starved1 for the . want of funds which rightly they should have. It is also something of a shameful attitude, under such circumstances, to place municipal governments in the position of replacing the provincial government in school financing affairs, while those same municipalities are keenly aware of the difficult situation in which they and school boards find themselves! It is a totally unfair proposition and the simplest way out would be for all municipal governments to give the school boards approval on what the provincial government describes as over-entitlement funds in their budget. If there were only one or two school boards in this position it would not be serious but James Campbell, School Trustees Association president, has said that as the result of increases to teachers salaries there are now 49 school boards above the financial limit set by government formula. ': in case readers are not acquainted with the government wrinkle of placing blocks in front of school boards, the provincial government arranged that municipal councils had the right to approve or reject budget over-entitlement. If the council rejected the application it would go. to public plebiscite. This is usually fatal and last year's.experience;proved it: Only two^of nine such referenda were given a favorable public vote. School boards have been between the devil and the deep blue sea for a good number of years, too many for them to look back on with pleasure. Why an important segment of our social life should ibe placed in such an, unnecessary situation is worth investigating. An example of the situation a school board finds itself in under! the present government formula, arises when the school board arranges its budget and finds that when teacher demands for increased salaries become a fact, their budget is immediately out of line. For instance the school board for this district having based its budget on the 110 percent formula now finds it will have to have $77,034 more in order to comply with teacher increases plus other inflationary increases. In larger districts the sum is greater. What kind of departmental foresight is this? Still further, the basis of new school construction is on present costs but it takes maybe up to three years before contractors can start building. In the meantime inflation has increased all costs. Builders find it necessary to allow for Unknown wage increases, thus adding to costs. With the minister of finance holding his fist tightly on the outgo of provincial funds departmental officials are left with steadily increasing demands for necessary construction coupled with a steadily decreasing outflow of necessary money. Surely there must be a better way to handle the department of education and its problems. They are not all wrapped up in that nasty word inflation. With our booming economy and with yearly governmental surpluses usage of the word affluence where education matters are concerned sounds like a hollow laugh up a very empty sleeve. "' (By. Clifford JFpwke, editor, of the Canadian Builder) C The adoption of the National Building code by all municipalities in Canadaisr one of the most worthwhile objectives for the. entire construction industry. A truly national building code would replace the; chaotic situation created by oour present- multiplicity of building by-laws with a uniform pat tern of requirements across the country. This would have the ultimate advantage of reducing building costs generally and housing costs in particular. It would certainly result in greater efficiency, for the building industry, arid the introduction of ne.w techniques and materials could' be significant and far reaching in their effects. It is a fact that every professional and trade association in our consruction industry advocates the general adopjtdon of NBC���architects, engineers, contractors; homebuilders and manufacturers. But, as a refutation of any suggestion that their desires are selfish or profit-motivated, it is also a fact that support for their attitude is forthcoming from other ribn- industry bodies like the Association of Canadian Fire Marshals, the Canadian Association of Fire Chiefs, the Canadian Federation of Mayors, and Municipalities, the 'Canadian Manufacturers Association, the Canadian Underwriters* Association and many provincial associations of building officials. The first version of the National Building Code was produced around 1941 under the patronage���but in no way under the control���of the division of building research, National Research council. Under the supervision of DBR's Director, Dr. R.F. Legget/ the division provided staff and knowledge to organize the associate committee of the National! Building Code> uthe.. official sponsor and publisher of the code. It was the associate committee which arranged and planned the mammoth job of providing a set of building by-laws, adjusted and adaptable to all climatic conditions in Canada. However, the significant factor behind the drawing up of this code is that the work has been done by a. series of voluntary committees, comprising technical experts from every field of constructibriy and pro viding a wealthx of brain power and knowledge ��� .that., no single municipality, however large, could hope to emulate. Every few years, the National Building code has been reissued, often expanded, to meet criticisms, proposed amendments, changing conditions. These are changes which have most often arisen from -comments and suggestions sent in by users���designers, builders," manufaictuers, mwnlicipal offii- ciails . and elected repre^enta:- tives. It has now developed to the point where it is the best document of its kind in the world, admired by every coun- try: in the. Western World none of which have a similar document). Unfiorfunatiely like the prophet in his own land, the building code is still unhonored in Canada to a regrettable degree. On the face of it, though, the National Building Code has made outstanding progress. A recent estimate is that 74 per cent���_ of Canada's population lives in" areas using the code in whole or in part. But therein lies the snag! The number of municipalities which have adopted the code in its published form without major amendment is relatively small. While many more claim to have building by laws based on one or another version of the National Building Code, the fact is that the majority of .these have so modified the code on their own responsibilities, and pared with the original. This situation is showing up now to a greater extent than ever before as the building industry grows and the business operations of designers, manufacturers and builders spread not only over different municipal boundaries but across provincial boundaries. It has been estimated that the advantage in price , and quality of a factory manufactured home are being denied to 70 percent'.- of the population in Canada because of the variety of building by-laws. This however, is only one side of the story. The multiplicity of building by laws affects the production of all kinds of building maiterials���wood products, steel, concrete, etc. It also affects drastically the end prices of many homes and other buildings in one area as against another. Here \ are some examples: COAST NEWS 5-10-20 FIVE YEARS AGO B.C. Hydro records show 131 new homes built on the Sunshine . Coast in 1964 valued at $1,088,450 plus $5,730,500 commercial construction. Port Mellon's pulp mill provided $5,000,000. Forecasts of the school board 1965 budget were that it would pass the $1,000,000 mark for the first time. Because Canadian Forests Products expected the company would eventually require use of the land on which a school was now operating the school board has decided to seek another location. 10 YEARS AGO H.B. Gordon Agencies, real estate and insurance, Sechelt announced the opening of. a branch office in Gibsons. William Allan, who planted the chestnut trees on the grounds of Sechelt's cenotaph died at the age of 80. As a result of . numerous brawls at dances in the area Magistrate Andy Johnson decided to jail1 such disturbers of the peace without option of a fine. Dick McKibbin, chairman of the Library board announced that plans were under way - to increase library book space to 6,000 books. Present number is about 2,700. 15 YEARS AGO First action towards moving the hospital to Gibsons area came when a board of trade committee was organized to correlate all other efforts with that of the board. More than 100 persons at tended . a meeting at Pender- Harbor and incorporated St. Mary's Hospital under the Societies act. A plebiscite for the sale of liquor in the unorganized territory of Mackenzie riding is forecast. If organized municipalities want a vote on it they must apply for the same. Chief Charlie Craigan was elected to head the Sechelt Band at an election on the reserve. 20 YEARS AGO Cost of electricity in the area has been the subject of a complaint by Gibsons Board of Trade plus power promises that so far have not been kept. Sechelt Board of Trade has protested a proposed increase in) water rates by Union Estates Ltd., maintaining they are out of proportion to rates elsewhere. Gibsons' concerns using vpow- er report the voltage is too low to operate some machinery they use. R. Haekett, Sechelt's weather observer reports' that for December 5.55 inches of rain fell plus six inches of snow. with insufflent facillities, that it is unrecognizable when com- In a recent survey by Toronto Metropolitan Home Builders Association, it was established that a house in the Borough of Scarborough costs around $500 more than a house of similar design and size and quality in adjoining Markham Township because of the more stringent regulations in the former municipality... ���;.-, An architect found that the cost 'of thev same industrial building erected in three different municipalities varied by 10 and 20 percent according to the requirements of the different by laws. A school built in one municipality was at least 50 percent dearer than a similar school built in a neighboring municipality and a major part of that increased cost was due to the excessive requirements laid down by local by laws. The code; is largely a performance code which means that, rather than specifying what particular product should be used, it sets the standards of performance that any material must achieve before it can be used. This opens the door for the use of/new and more efficient materials in a way that most existing local by-laws do not. The second '���*- advantage is that the National Building Code is being conistantjly reviewed in the light of local needs, changing requirements and lessons learned from its application. The trouble in that many municipalities are not ���aware of the fact that they can ' submit their amendments for consideration, or simply do not toother: to do so. No one suggests that the National Building Code is a perfect do cument that meets all requirements in the best possible way. But. it is the best we have and does point the road out of the present chaoftic situaltttkMii.���-From the Plywood World Quarterly. N.

Possibly vacationers returning from a holiday in Switzerland, the home of the fondue pot. The word fondue comes from the French verb, fondre (phone/dre), meaning to melt, and a true fondue is a melted dish, or a dunk. Fondues were originally a product of necessity. Cheese. and bread, which formed the staple diet of the Swiss country folk were made in great batches, then stored for long .intervals. Naturally both became hard. The bread had to be dunked to soften it. As for the cheese, It was found that when melted and .flavored . with wine, it made an excellent dunk for the bread. >!��� I GET YOURS NOW BEFORE PRICES RISE COAST NEWS GBhom^ Ph. 886-2622 nc^jt ���* -. :j THE SPORTY jumpsuit for leisure wear in a soft all-cotton velour.

It is commonly' served from a round, ear.then.waTe pot. This ds placed over a fondue warmer in the center of the. table. Long-handled fondue forks are used lo spear cubes : of crusty French or Italian bread for dunking. Each person at the table, in turn, dunks his bread ini the fondue and stirs until his neighbor takes over. There are many recipes for basic cheese; fondue and the choice of cheese is of geatest importance. If you don't have a good recipe, buy canned fondue. It has delicious flavor and comes in cans of different size. As for the dunk, it need" not always be bread: Cooked seafoods such as shrimp and scallops, also chunks of lobster and. crab, make excellent dunks. You will find that the guests heartily approve of this innovation. Fondue Bourguignonne is a different type of dish. Strictly speaking it is not a fondue since --nothing melts. Neither is it "Bourguigworine" since it does not contain red wine, nor does it come from Burgun* dy. Simply described, each guest spears chunks of raw fish or" meat with a fondue fork or wooden fondue skewer and cooks them singly in bubbling hot ; oil in a metal fori^ due pot. Before being eaten, each cooked morsel) is trans-; ferred to a, dinner fork, seasoned, then dipped in a tasty sauce or sprinkled with lemon. Fish and shellfish .cook quickly, making them an excellent choice for this dish. Especially recommended are firm-fleshed . varieties-such as salmon, halibut, pickerel, < Jswordfish, ���about Vz pound of ^edible, raw shrimp, and scallops. Count on seafood for each serving. To prepare the fish, cut fillets orv'steaks into, 3A- inch Cubes, discarding any skin or bones. If serving, shrimp, peel ; and de-vein them. If serving scallops, rinse them well under running water to remove any grit, then drain and pat dry. Scallops . larger than bite-size should be cut in halves. Arrange the prepared -fish and shellfish on a serving tray. Cover with plaa|tfLc film and refrigerate until cooking time. Shortly before the meal, half-fill the fondue pot with salad oil. Heat the oil until very hOt-r^but riot smoking��� on the kitchen f stove, then transfer the pot to its heating unit on the table. Around it place salt and pepper shakers, bowls containing several different sauces, and a bowl containing lemon wedges; The choice of v sauces is limitless. Some suggestions are: seafood cocktail slauce, tartar sauce; mustard or curry mayonaise and caper butter. - ..'. See that each guest has a plate for the raw ^seafoods of his choice and a sectioned fondue plate-for the sauces. He - will also need a fondue fork, dinner fork, and napkin.

Letters to editor /Editor: It was my pleasure Sunday, Jan. 4, to witness the nicest little piece of diplomacy that anyone could wish to see displayed anywhere and it happened right here on our Sunshine Coast. The occasion���a report by a group of irate people whose water supply had been contaminated by mud etc., in the creek supplying them. The result���a visit to the property of the offender by two members of the Regional District and myself, an invited observer. The dffenee-T-the man had been doing some clearing on his land through which a creek ran. Some of the logs had been dragged through the creek, making a shambles of the area and the creek. He admitted that he thought that as the creek went through his property he had the right to go through it. The outcome���an explanation of the law as it applies in such cases by the Regional District" representative in a quiet reasonable way and a promise by the property owner that all work would be stopped on the far side of the creek and that the creek and it banks would be cleaned up to prevent further trouble. Credit for the way this affair was managed must go to the two men who handled the situation in such a cool and diplomatic fashion. When the residents of this area have men like these working for them, they don't have too much to worry about. There are occasions when a little criticism is warranted but when credit is due, it should be given freely. J. Hind-Smith, Secretary, Sunshine Coast Environment Protection Society.

I was one of three boys from Gibsons who attended the 39th session of the Older Boys Parliament of British Columbia. There were approximately 70 young men from all over the province in Victoria for the 39th sitting. The many friendships made at the sessions will last for many years. But the OBP of B.C. is more than, a friendly gathering. The members took-an oath to strive for the betterment of British Columbia's young people, to provide less fortunate children with an opportunity to do things the average child can do. One of the projects planned for 1970 is the organizing of social evenings for boys at the House of -Concord, a home for unfortunate boys. The OPB members, mostly from Vancouver will organize activities for these boys, such as ibaskeball, floor hockey and films. Another major project to be carried out by OPB members is a summer camp of one week for 50 under-priviledged\ children. Children for this camp are selected fby' the OPB cabinet and senate with the co-operation of the social welfare branch. t The other major project for this year is a food drive. The aim of this food drive is to collect good usable food for the less fortunate people in the pror vince. The OPB is a youth organization. It is sponsored by churches and community minded individuals. It receives no grants from the government so therefore must raise all money to be used in the carrying out of its goals and projects. Department of Lands, Forests and Water Resources Water-Resources Service Pollution Control Branch ;���/ APPLICATION FOR A PERMIT UNDER THE POLLUTION CONTROL ACT, 1967 I, Village-of Gibsons of Gibsons, British Columbia, P.O. Box 340, hereby apply to the Director of Pollution Control for a permit to discharge effluent from a municipal sewerage system located at Gibsons, B.C.- into Strait of Georgia and give notice of my application to all persons affected. * ��� The point of discharge shall be located in the Strait of Geor-",��� gia, at a minimum depth of 75 . feet below low water about 600 feet off Gospel Rock. The land upon which the effluent originates is Village of Gibsons. The quantity of effluent to be discharged is as follows:��� Maximum rate 0.89 C.F.S., 333 Imp. gal. p. min. Maximum 12-hour discharge "240,000 Imperial gallons. Average 24 hour discharge 180,000 Imperial gallons. The operating season during which the effluent will be discharged is continuous. The average characteristics of the effluent discharged shall be equivalent to or better than: Sus pended solids - 50 ppm, Bio- s chemical Oxygen Demand - 75 ppm, Coliform bacteria - MPN per 100 ml of 30,000. The type of treatment to be applied to the waste before discharge is as follows: grit removal, comminution, oxidation by activated sludge process, sedimentation, effluent disinfection and sludge drying beds. I, David Johnston, Clerk- Treasurer, Village of Gibsons, hereby certify that this application does not conflict with the local by-laws of Village of Gibsons. This application dated on the 30 day of December, 1969, was posted on the ground in accordance with the Pollution Control Regulations. (Signed) D; Johnston, Municipal Clerk This application is to be filed with the Director of Pollution Control, Parliament Buildings, Victoria, British Columbia. Any person whose rights would be affected in accordance with the act may, within 30 days of the date of the application, or within 30 days of publication in The British. Columbia Gazette or in a newspaper, or, where service is required, within 30 days of. the serving of a copy of the application, file with the Director an objection in writing to the granting of a permit stating how he is affected. This year the estimated cost of this season's projects is about $4,000. To ensure that this money is raised, the OPB government put through an act which states that if a member wishes to return to parliament the following year he must sell $30 worth of bonds, seE means collect and the bonds are tax deductable which states you have donated to the OPB for the carrying out of projects. All members from Gibsons want to go back next December. Those desiring more information about the Oider Boys Parliament are asked to contact Wolfgang Buchhorn at 886-7050, Roland Kerbis at 886-9812 or Don Smith at 886-7460. (By Wolfgang Buchhorn) The Older Boys Parliament of British Colubia is an organization for young men throughout B.C. Their aim may be summed up by their motto youth serving youth. With this aim in mind the Older Boys Parliament serves the youth in this province through various projects, providing comradship and training in leadership. For their efforts parliamentarians receive an education in citizenship, ..parliamentary .procedure, social responsibility, and youth oranization, as well as a firm background in public speaking. The 39th session, which three boys from Gibsons attended over the Christmas holidays proved to be an enjoyable and thoroughly rewarding occasion. The parliamentarians were billeted at the Canadian Forces Base at Esquimalt Among the highlights of the five day trip to Victoria was the 'banquet with the Lieutenant- Governor, at Government house. This proved' a delightful experience which will be remembered. The whole trip was highly educational and is one of the events every Iboy between the ages of 15 and 21 should attend.

Can you obtain a divorce on grounds of three years separation if you are'living in the same house as your husband? My husband and I sleep in separate bedrooms and go our own separate ways and, in fact, hardly speak to one another. A. It is very doubtful if you are, in the words of the divorce act; living separate and apart. A married couple may be living separate and apart although residing under the same roof but this is very rare. The cessation of intimate relations, in itself, is not sufficient. In one case the couple had ceased intimate relations and lived in separate rooms of the same suite. They each did their (Copyright) own shopping, cooking, laundry, etc. They were caretakers of an apartment and to keep their positions it was necessary to maintain the appearance of husband and wife. The court granted the divorce holding that there had been (as there must be) a withdrawal from the matrimonial relations, as well ass a physical separation. We advise that you and your husband each consult your own lawyer and try and enter into a separation agreement and live entirely apart. In three years one of you can sue the other for a divorce���or perhaps one of you will commit adultry before three years have passed and, of course, this would be sufficient grounds.

David Ganshorn and Bernard F- Mulligan realized it was an experience Thursday night of last week when they were introduced to school board affairs at the Inaugural meet- ting. '_;,_���' ��� With Supt. R.R Hanna hi the chair until a new chairman was elected, he outlined the 'functions of a trustee' and explained that the rights of operation were with the board, not a committee of the board or individual members His advice was to make no comment until the !facts had been obtained and those facts should be obtained from the board. The ANDY CAPP flow of adhiiriistration must be allowed to operate.. The chain of command is essential from the school board down. Following his dissertation on the duties..of,a trustee the reelection of Mrs. Sheila Kitson, last year's chairman to the same post /this year occurred with Trustee Rev. Barry Jenks receiving the minority vote. Vice- chainnahi will be Mrs. A. Labon- te winning that post over Trustee William Malcolm. With Mrs. Kitson in the,chair Secretary-treasurer J.S. Metzler outlined aspects of the financial setup under which the board operated; giving the new members a chance to ask questions. He also advised the new trustees that the provincial financial formula for schools was made up to create confusion so he preferred not to go into too much detail as it gets more and more confusing as you go along. An argument on policy making came next with Mr. Hanna showing how policy resulted through proposals being placed before the board from school sources. Policy was made and then presented to the board. Proposals were acceptable for disscussion and then the board as a whole defines what policy will be. Mr. Metzler outlined the committee setup and from his long experience fayored the one man n e, service comes GLASS-ARTS, a division of Elphinstone Industries Limited/ announces the absorption of Sun Glass & GLASS-ARTS will provide a complete glass service: GLASS OF ALL TYPES GLASS CUTTING NEW INSTALLATIONS CONTRACTING MIRRORS WINDOW REPAIRS AWNINGS PICTURE FRAMES GLASS-ARTS will be able to supply glass and aluminum windows at Vancouver prices.

WYNGAERT RD., GIBSONS Ph. 886-7141 committee with that chairman having power to add to the size of the committee as required. At that point Chairman Mrs. Kitson asked that board members signify via a memo to .her what committee operation they thought would be most suited for their qualifications. This would give her a chance to have the committee chairman chosen at the next board meeting. ., . Mr. Metzler waved the proposed 1970 budget in his hand and suggested the problem was such that it would be better for the board to hold a special budget meeting Jan: 22 when there would be more time to delve into the labryinth of figures. He explained that as it .stood with an excess over educational department limitations of about $281,612 that the board would have to go to Sechelt and Gibsons municipal councils for approval of the excess, as required under the present finance formula as concocted by the minister of education's department. With that safely outlined the board decided it would go into a committee of the whole to discuss some problem in the hands of Mr. Hanna, the superintendent... A cue for all except the board members to leave the room. Cat's nine lives are big help On Dec. 31 the following advertisement was placed in the Coast News: Tortoiseshell cat named Moustache. White face with black moustache and goatee, wearing flea collar. Lost at Ferry terminal on Friday. Please phone Mrs. McQuary at 886-9982. The cat vanished when the McQuary car was hit by another from the rear. It darted from the car and efforts to find it failed. On Friday the, Coast News received a phone call from the Salvation Army camp next to the ferry terminal inquiring whether this could be the missing cat. The caller was told to phone Mrs* McQuary. He did and now the cat is happy in its normal home. Missing since boxing day it somehow managed to get into the Salvation Army hall while the door was open. It has apparently been in the hall for many days as it was missing a total of 21 days. The caller from the camp noticed the cat in the hall, investigated and then used the telephone. Now Moustache is satisfied to stay home. Coast News, Jan. 14, 1970.

Letters to editor Editor: I am writing concerning the deplorable condition of our town park, which should foe the-focal point of Gibsons as it is the resting place of the founders of the gateway to the beautiful Sunshine Coast, Gibsons B.C. I am dismayed at the condition of this area, which over the years has been transformed from a poor excuse of a town park, to a site where one may; rest their backsides; this-being a rest station or commonly called 'toilet'. If one is looking for ways to improve the appearance of what could be one of the most unique attractions of Gibsons, which in turn could be a special B.C. Centennial project, I would suggest that we immediately look at ways of improving as well as developing this area. I feel that if the citizens of Gibsons would express themselves, they too would be in agreement with the aforementioned. I look forward to reading your comments and support of this cause. W.E.
