Phone 886-2622 Volume 23 Number 39, October 14, 1970. 10c per copy Teachers inceD sed by room Incensed and defrauded were descriptions given to the school board at last week's meeting when Principal George Cooper and Vice^Princiipal J. B. Ayriis expressed their feelings toward the open area class room at Gibsons Elementary school. Their appearance came as the result of remarks passed at the September meeting when Supt. R. R. Hanna said he felt the open area method of teaching wasi more demanding on teachers and that some teachers pre- Sferred to avoid tackling such a classiroom. He suggested that future open area classrooms would be made less rigid in form than the' one at Gibsons. Explaining an open area type class at last Thursday's meeting, Mr. Hanna said it was . a larger space than usually used for a classroom,, had more pupils and several teachers. The teachers worked, and planned together to discover how to use pupil capabilities. Pupils were regrouped' to the advantage of their capabilities and directed to learn under their own motivations. He added that there had been a noted improvement in attitude. The work requires more of the teachers time and it is more demanding and harder work than the grade class type. This he said did not apply to the Gibsons school only. c 7 ��� .Principal Cooper distributed a questionnaire which "teachers had received. Discussion did not evolve from teaching methods but rather the area in which teaching was done. He said there was no shell-like attitude in the open area similar to that found in grade classrooms. He did not outline the replies to all 14 questions on the questionnaire preferring to let trustees ask questions. The real problem came towards the end of the discussion when both Principal Cooper and Vice-Principal Ayris* described the disadvantages of��the present room. The ceiling was too low and the windows not suitable. Mr. Cooper said the staff felt they had been defrauded over the construction of the room. Mr. Ayris said he was speaking entirely on his own and was incensed at what hiad occurred as a finished product. A questionnaire request sought to discover what advantages there were to the library being housed in the open area. The replies implied it was not exactly in an open area because the library was blocked off by children's clothes racks. Sympathizing with the speakers and1 teachers, the trustees decided the planning committee should check to see what can be done about improving the situation.

Tomicic, membership and Carol Murray, secretary and publicity. Election of the president was delayed until more members attended. Margaret Smith will continue her tea and coffee service with rotating assistants. Mrs. Ball outlined for the benefit of new members aims and Objects of the auxiliary, explaining they were attempts at facilitating communication between parents and the school, as well as to raise funds for .special projects. Discussion followed on the ways and means some of the money was spent, such as funds subsidizing sports and scholastic awards. Principal M. B. Mactavish while in favor of more learning experiences outside the school, felt that the^awards system for competitions reflected wants and needs of parents. It was suggested that a questionnaire be designed to assess whether parents would prefer to have these funds spent on projects and equipment benefitting all the children or to continue the competitive award system as well. Mrs. Tomicic suggested any decision would Tbe better made after the teachers had been consulted as to their possible needs. An auxiliary cheque for $50 was given Principal Mactavish to buy paper back books for the library. As members were satisfied with the price and quality of cbl- ored class photos taken last year, the secretary was asked to arrange for the same firm to be engaged for this year. Enthusiasm resulted over the suggestion that local artists participate in the school program by giving demonstrations. The first hot dog sale at the school occurred Oct. 9 and it is expected this project will continue. Members hoped that Residential school children would be allowed to bring their own spending money so they can participate. Another repeat performance will be the Hallowe'en party sponsored by the auxiliary assisted by a $75 donation from the Elphinstone Recreation committee. The party will be held in the Community Hall, Sat., Oct. 31 from 7 to 9 p.m. The report Of the treasurer revealed receipts of $614.30 and disbursements of $275, at June 30. drive for funds Scholarships reviewed Kiwanis of the Sunshine Coast are sponsoring a senior citizens housing project and plan to raffle off a color TV.

The senior citizens project has reached the point where it is expected that construction work will be started early next spring on the site close to the B.C. Hydro station on North Rd. A meeting of the Sunshine Coast Scholarship, Bursary and Loan Society was held last week to finalize the draft of the constitution and bylaws' for submission to Victoria so that the society may be incorporated under the Societies Act. The object of the society is to solicit money from corporations, organizations', companies, individuals, charitable organizations or government agencies; to act as a co-ordinating agency for any organization wishing to offer its own scholarships or bursaries to students of School Dis trict No. 46, and to provide financial aid in the form of loans to students actively attending post-secondary education from School District No. 46, in the province of British Columbia. Once the. society has been constituted there will be an active membership drive throughout the area and it is hoped1 that other individuals or groups will wish to contribute to the Loan Fund or establish other scholarships or bursaries for students graduating from Pender Harbour or Elphinstone Secondary schools. SecheIVs council off on total bylaw binge Sechelt's mayor and aldermen want copies of all bylaws pertaining to the operations of Sechelt's municipal council. This was agreed to by council members at Wednesday night's meet ing last week when a bylaw be* came involved in the subject under discussion. Mayor William Swain recalled the day some years ago when he was informed that if he wanted a certain bylaw he could have a copy for 25 cents. He said this irked: him. Now, he says, every alderman should have a copy of all bylaws to read for themselves. This he regarded as a '.'must. Clerk Ted"v Rayner suggested perhaps if the aldermen had copies of operative bylaws with regulations and requirements that would be sufficient. Council decided it wanted all the bylaws. As there would be 102 bylaws involved, some with one or two pages and others with several pages ii would mean considerable work as five copies of each would have to be prepared. Clerk Rayner preferred to prepare the 30 or so bylaws which would be of real use. Some of the others he said contained statutary requirements for the setting of the yearly mill rate and such like. Discussion on the bylaw prob lem arose when requirements for the Mallorn Tree premises in Sechelt for installing plumbing, was brought up. It was found council had no bylaw covering the plumbing situation. To end the involved discussion, Aid. Joe Benner suggested council write to the regional health office in Vancouver and see what it can do towards getting the required plumbing installed. Later in the meeting correspondence from the Building Inspector's Association informed council it was working on a pro- . vincial type bylaw which would make building and plumbing regulations if possible the same through the province: Municipal hail expansion draws rentor , Village Enterprises, a store complex on Cowrie Street wrote Seehelts' council stating that it opposed use of the proposed municipal hall extension to take away 7 from rented space now occupied or available.

This was done along with the setting up of a Utility Reserve bylaw to receive funds for utility purposes and read a third time. Revised bylaw 211 authorizes the borrowing of $425,000 and gives council the right to proceed on sewer work. Federal government grants will help finance the trunk sewer and the village will take care of financing lateral lines to the trunk sewer. The federal grant comes through Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation.

The report stated the response for the bylaw was very great. Two $12,000 homes plus $6,233 in improvements and sheds made up the $31,233 total for five building permits brought to the attention of council. A light for a dark area on Prowse Rd. was approved' by council. Police chase hits 90 mph Robert Wayne Thorburn, of Gibsons, pleaded guilty in ma- gistrate's court Tuesday to three charges, criminal negligence in the operation of a motor vehicle, hit and run driving and driving while impaired. He was remanded in custody to Nov. 3 awaiting a pre-sentence report. The RCMP report stated the charges were the result of an 11 % mile high - speed chase through Gibsons with speeds up to 85-90 mph. This chase started when Thorburn passed a marked police car iri excess of the speed limit and then cut the police car off. One hour later Thorburn was arrested near Lower. Road and Highway 101. Thorburn failed to heed police emergency equipment and tried to ram police vehicles on several occasions. During this time he struck a vehicle near the Sunnycrest Shopping Centre with damage to his vehicle and the other resulting in approximately $100. Pedestrians were also en-, dangered. A police car was used to block the highway on 101 with a second police vehicle behind arid a third police vehicle on the side. Thorburn was then arrested. Damage to police cars was estimated at approximately $150. tails concerning improvements to be made to Whispering Pines on the shorefront.

Trustee D. Ganshorn maintained a lot of misunderstandings were being put out by SPEC and Trustee Mrs. A. Labonte felt SPEC was too political. Trustee said those desiring to join SPEC can do so outside school activities. The board decided on a hands off policy while a good look was taken at SPEC activities. Tenders for construction expanding Sechelt Elementary school, reported on at last Thurs day night's school board meeting revealed the low tender of $172,775 was more than $15,000 over the referendum figure of $143,000. High tender was $203,- 237. Secretary treasurer J. S. Metzler, quelling any hopes Victoria officials relent and. allow the figure to stand said the position with Victoria was pretty grim. As there was no money left from past referendums it was decided to amend the specifications and call for new tenders from the three low bids. Coast News, Oct. 14, 1970. The Unseen Audience i she'll.

Not all fun and games The merry-go-round on which most school boards find themselves continually riding revealed itself at Thursday night's (meeting when a remark passed at a previous meeting resulted in a pretty thorough explanation from a teacher point of view. School Supt. R. R. Hanna at the previous meeting implied that some teachers did not like to tackle open area teaching and that the next open area would be built on a more flexible plan. Principal George Cooper and Vice-Principal J. B. Ayris supported by some of the teaching staff at Thursday's meeting developed their theme and it appeared that what was wrong was the monetary climate in which we live, Mr. Bennett's monetary climate, that is. The manner of the construction of the open area classroom was wrong. The principal said that the staff felt a bit defrauded with it and Mr. Ayris said he#was incensed over it. The ceiling height was not as planned, neither were the windows. The library arrangement was very nice except that it was smothered by coat racks, etc., because there was no other place to put them. Experience has placed the school board in the position of planning, replanning, then revamping further in order it can obey Victoria's straightjacket while market values on construction continue spiralling. It took three years to get that open area room built from first draft on paper to occupation. The basic price rjose 25 percent and Victoria in its impeccable wisdom farced the 25 percent increase to be absorbed in alterations and other money-saving methods. Later in the meeting the secretary-treasurer reporfted on the opening of tenders for the bids on the Sechelt school project thie terms for which were laid down in January of this year. The sum of $155,000 was allowed by department officials. The lowest contractor bid nine months later was $172,775, a good 10 percent pluis above. What to do? You cannot batten down the contractor so you trim your requirements in order to keep within the amount set by Victoria. . So perhaps now one can understand why a school principal and vice-principal can stand before a school board and use such words sa defrauded and incensed and have the board sympathize wi-l_ them. Being a school trustee is not all fun and games. A. world of paper There are times when most people would gladly strive to get _tway from this world of paper without end. It would please therai if they were able to forget their daily paper and for a change just look at scenery. It would also make them happy to know that there would be less throwaway mail. But we have some doughty people in the village of Sechelt who have been overcome by a desire to have a copy of every bylaw that exists as part of Sechelt's legal armor. Sechelt's mayor and aldermen at last week's council meeting decided they would like to have copies of every bylaw, so they will know where they stand., There are actually 102 of them according to Clerk Ted Rayner and he suggested that perhaps if he copied 25 or so of the operative bylaws that it would suffice. Not so, was council's opinion. Bach one wanted a copy of all 102. If you have had experience in the municipal arena or in that of any other unit that has bylaws you will know that some of them are obsolete, null and void, or are enabling regulations good for one year only and so on. Sechelt's clerk strived to point out that there were bylaws among the 102 that would be of no earthly use to them. He could have explained further that each year there are about three or four bylaws passed to enable the council to set the mill rate and collect taxes. These bylaws, say four a year, added up over a period of 12 years would amount to nearly 50 bylaws which would be just throwaways. Now Mr. Mayor and aldermen (three out of four because Aid. Norman Watson was not present) how about cutting your costs by using your head and having the necessary bylaws only prepared. The article which follows is based on a Pastoral Letter by Archbishop Carney, to the clergy, religious and faithful of the Archdiocese of Vancouver: Archbishop Carney states that the young must be given access to a formation, a school system, with coherent philosophical and theological answers to the questions, What is man?, What is the meaning of life? The child has a right to expect that his principal educators, home and school, will support one another as they introduce him to the cultural and spiritual resources that are his birthright. The school has a right to the support of the family; and the family has a right to expect that in the school the child will be educated in terms of its own culture and traditions. He maintains that because there is a Christian definition of human growth and development there is such a thing as Christian education and a Christian school. Such Christian education is not merely secular education with religious instruction added, but involves a commitinent to a new standard of manhood. Elaborating on the question What is the meaning of life? the Archbishop writes, "in this technological age we are witnessing a restless, anguished, sometimes violent, search for the meaning of existence. The fact that this anguish sometimes expresses itself in forms such as drug use, anarchistic activity, and extreme law-and-order movements does not make it any less1 real." "Particularly the young, and they in increasing numbers, appear to be driven by a need to find a meaning to existence that is more real than the technological values that are so influential in shaping our culture. "Democracy dares not avoid responding to the needs of the growing number of citizens who feel de-humanized by servitude to technology. We feel that it is still possible for democracy to find a way of answering these needs. But we also feel that it will call for) a new definition of government neutralism in education. "Every pluralistic society com prises a number of subsidiary groups, each united within itself and distinguished from other such groups by particular ' philosophical-theological interpretations of life. The churches are one example of such subsidiary groups, but there are others based on philosophies that are not formally religious. "By definition, in air its processes democratic government remains neutral between these groups and between the theologies or philosophies to which they adhere." The Archbishop's letter speaks of two ways of maintaining thSs necessary neutrality. The first, the method traditionally followed by governments in British Columbia, is to remove all philosophical - theological direction from the state supported schools resulting in the sort of education that has been complained of as being neutral in favor of the non-religious view of man. The Archbishop expressed the view that this method is simply not satisfying to the young who are searching for the meaning of existence. "There is a way," the Archbishop said, "for a government to remain neutral between the various groups that comprise a pluralistic society, and therefore remain democratic, while at the same time allowing the schools to give to those citizens who want it a form of education that will speak to them of the higher and ultiriiate meaning of existence. That way is for the state to support without discrimination schools that are operated by the various subsidiary groups in society. For genuine pluralism in education, enabling citizens to be formed in schools that will express their human worth to them in terms of higher and ultimate meaning, is democracy's answer to modern forms of de-humanization. Without this answer it is difficult to see how democracy can meet the challenge that is being presented to it both from within and without." In his concluding appeal Arch bishop Carney refers again to the struggle of the Central Board, in affiliation with the Federation o f Independent School Associations, for pluralism in education. "A prerequisite in the struggle is that we maintain our schools in existence. The sacrifices involved are significant, to say the least. But the issues involved are vital; and the (freedoms that are involved could extend to every phase of man's life." The Central Catholic School Board serves 46 Catholic schools iilftthe-Lower* Fraser Valley and the Lower Mainland. Through its provincial parent body, the B.C. Catholic School Trustees association, it is affiliated with the Federation of Independent School Associations, which is a group of Protestant, Catholic, Jewish, inter - denominational, and non-sectarian schools throughout the province, enrolling 23,000 students combined. The objects of the FISA are to achieve pluralism in education, in which all schools would be recognized and supported without discrimination.

Consumers' Association o f Canada brought the hearing aid situation to the attention of the Department of Consumer and Corporate Affairs in 1968. Information on actual cases1 was collected and the report of the Consumers' Association was turned over to the department for government investigation and action. The Department of Consumer and Corporate Affairs has recently completed further inquiries and a report has been released by Consumer and Corporate Affairs minister, Ron Basford, which makes specific recommendations to the Departments of Consumer and Corporate Affairs and National Health and Welfare, as well as to the provincial governments and hearing aid dealers. Unfortunately the recommendations are not in force yet, so if you are contemplating the purchase of an aid you might check with your local public library for special back issues of Canadian Consumer. Early in 1969, the magazine carried a series of three articles titled The Sense of Sound.

Phone 886-2622 An editorial under the heading We're Not Surprised, in the Provincial, a publication of the B.C. Government Employees Union comments on Mediation Commission problems: There is really no ibasis for dismay ahout the recent pitch made by the chairman of the B.C. Mediation Commission to deprive all public employees of the right to strike. Annoyance and frustration, yes. But surprise there cannot be when the comments of Judge John Parker are weighed in the context of the dismal record of the mediation commission. The judge went on to tell the annual meeting of the Canadian Bar Association that the law which allows federal employees to take strike action is the most incredibly inept legislation ever passed in Canada. We can now disregard entirely the proposition that the mediation commission is a neutral, impartial body established to settle labor disputes between employers and workers. By adopting a totally partisan stance against one of the largest groups of workers in Canada, Parker has shown himself to be prejudiced in the employers' favor. John L. Fryer, general secretary of the B.C. Government Employees' Union, sutamed up the attitude of the BCGEU to Parker's remarks in a letter to the editors of several newspapers which published his views on the rights of public employees. The letter said such remarks. by themselves reveal a monumental lack of knowledge on the part of the learned judge about the present state of labor- management relations in the federal public service. Continuing, the letter said the legislation governing these relations, the Public Service Staff Relations Act, is extremely comprehensive and provides numerous' checks and balances so that the rights of public servants to bargain collectively are respected whale, at the same time, the public is subjected to a mini- mium of inconvenience due to work stoppages. All you can <}o is to enact restrictive legislation that will have the effect of making legal strikes illegal. . . .Judge Parker comes from the only province in Canada that denies its public employees the right to . . . any form of collective bargaining itself. Presumably, the learned judge's knowledge of collective bargaining in the civil service was garnered from his experiences other than in British Columbia, said the letter.

Mrs. Fetherstonehaugh, the former Louie Warren, together with Mrs. Fellowes, nee Pat Harvey, Nina dePencier, Sheila Farrel, Gladys Harvey, Avis Pumphrey, Marj Sulley and Cayley Gould were the first contingent of girls to camp at Roberts Creek, under the direction of the late Miss K. Brydon in 1919. They used an army tent of Captain Harvey's on the Harvey property. This small group formed the nucleus of the popular and widely-known Kewpie Kamp which: for many years brightened the community with its dozens of scarlet and white uniformed girls. None who saw and heard them will forget the familiar old song Good-bye-ee don't ery-ee, as they waved good bye to home-going companions as. the steamer pulled away from the wharf, their childish voices following the ship across the water. Miss Brydon managed her growing camp for 28 years. She passed away in Vancouver on June 9, 1949. Mr. and Mrs. D. Wells returned from a trip to the States in time to entertain their daughter and family who came from Vancouver to spend the holiday weekend.

F. K. English, chairman of the British Columbia Centennial Band and Choir Championships, for the first an- .nual competitions to be staged all over the province next spring The zone eliminations and provincial finals for both choirs and bands are sponsored by the British Columbia Cultural Fund, headed by Hon. W. H. Murray, member of the legislature for Prince Rupert and speaker of the house. It is anticipated that band and choir competitions will become an annual spring feature but it is significant that a start will be made in the centennial year. There are three categories for both bands and choirs ��� junior, senior and community. The committee is working closely with established musical festivals throughout the province and the secretaryrof the Festival at each of these 12 centres will become the zone secretary. Adjudicators in the zone areas will select finalists to perform in the province-wide competition on May 5, 6 and 7 at the University of British Columbia. Residences at the University of British Columbia have been made available to accommodate about 2,000 students and other persons from the participating communities. Performances will take place in the War Memorial Gymnasium on the university campus which has a capacity of 6,500. Noted Canadian adjudicators will determine the finalists in each category. Dr. David Ouch- terlony, principal of the Toronto Conservatory of Music, has agreed tp be chairman of a panel of three judges. Two of these are Dr. Donald McKellar of the University of Western Ontario; Zone luncheon On Sept. 28 Roberts Creek Legion Auxiliary were hosts to 48 members of the zone. After lunch, there was a two hour meeting: Tne zone project again this year would be donations to Powell River and St. Mary's Hospitals, and all auxiliaries were asked to give . donations to the B.E.S.L. It was reported that there was a shortage of canes at Shaughnessy Hospital. Roberts Creek Auxiliary held its aneeting on Oct. 5, and it was decided to put a plea out for canes. Milly Thyer, Grace Cum- ming and Bessie Clark would be pleased to receive them, also old clean nylon hose. Final arrangements were made for a rummage sale on Oct. 9. and Mr. Earl Terry, supervisor of music for the schools of London, Ontario. Dr. McKellar is a specialist in bands. Fred Turner and John Stark, supervisors of music for the Vancouver school system, will be responsible for many of the detailed arrangements for staging the finals in Vancouver. A special syllabus is now in the hands of the Queen's Printer in Victoria and it will be given wide distribution throughout the province shortly. Dr. English has made it clear that all transportation of bands and choirs to Vancouver and return, and costs of room and board at the University fo British Columbia will be taken care of by the cultural committee. 6 percent limit given boards The British Columbia School Trustees Association, representing 78 school boards, have again been advised that the provincial government is subscribing to the six percent guideline recommended by Ottawa. Hon. D. L. Brothers, addressing the annual convention of the trustees association in Victoria on Monday, advised the school boards that they should not expect as large an increase in grants as they received in past years. The minister said there is no question that some allowance will have to be made for increased costs, and for districts which have more instructional units because of increased student enrolment. "However," he said, "this is a year to really sharpen your pencils, to exercise every economy to eliminate unnecessary costs and to operate as efficiently as possible.' Mr. Brothers referred to several aspects of education in the province, suggested to trustees that during the next year the possibility of further school district consolidations should be examined Langdale fire Fire shortly after 3:30 p.m. Tuesday caused considerable damage to the home of Bruce and Lottie Campbell, Langdale. Cause of the fire was indefinite at the time but the upper half of the split level home suffered serious damage from fire and water. Firemen had a trying time getting control of the smoldering wood beneath the roof. ACROSS 1. au rhum 5. Murmurs ! 9. Like soft clay ; 10. Baits , 12. Precise ; 13. Upright 14. Appointment 15.

Suffix: condition Coast News, Oct. 14, 1970. 5 letters fo editor To Hon. Isabel Dawson, Parliament Buildings, Victoria, B.C. Dear Madam: I am enclosing a copy of any recent letter to the Coast News and also a cutting from the paper re the sudden death of Mrs. Janet Mat- , thews who was found dead aboard' the Langdale-Horseshoe Bay ferry. She had carried her luggage aboard from the foot passenger car park at Langdale, and subsequently had an angina attack. If there had been a porter's push cart that she could have pushed on and off the ferry, this may not have occurred. Why does an outstanding citizen have to die before the "biggest and best ferny service in the world" to quote our Premier Mr. Bennett, will spent a negligible amount to provide six porter's trolleys to be pushed aboard at either end of the Sunshine Coast ferry? A luggage cart is provided for the Nanaimo ferry. Why this unequal favoritism? I sent copies of my letter to Mr. Finlayson at Langdale and received a courteous reply from Mr. R. J. Innis, Traffic Manager as follows: "The UBC student has been brought to task and advised to be more diplomatic in handling the public." Also to Mr. Kreiger, the supervisor of terminals who said: "We have never had luggage handling facilities for foot passengers, nor do we have plans to provide such facilities." May I point out that it is fairly recent that there were no B.C. Ferries! For the sake of your senior citizens, may I suggest that the matter be considered immediately. So few of the retired folk of the area can afford cars or the cost of $6 per ferry and it is not always convenient to catch the two bus service each way if one is to be met at either end' at the foot passenger car park (as in the case of Mrs. Matthews). Trusting the matter will be passed up by you to the prem*... ier whose secretary acknowledged my letter, but from whom I as still waiting a reply. I would like a copy of the premier and finance minister's expenditure of our 5% sales tax. Is this going to B.C. Medical hospital improvement and welfare. The old age pensioners here wish to know. ���Mrs. Dorothy Greene. Payroll plan bond seller The new issue of Canada Savings Bonds now is on sale. Such a campaign isn't new. This has been going on for 25 years and during that time the bonds have proved Canada's most popular personal investment. Close to $30 billion worth have been sold, and they have served a great variety of thrift purposes from the post-war period on. Last year 2,467,000 Canadians purchased more than $4 billion worth. This series will yield an annual average gain of 7% per cent if held to maturity in 11 years. Past familiar identifying features of the security will be retained. Bonds can be cashed at any time for face value plus accrued interest, can be bought for cash at banks or through investment dealers and by the popular payroll savings plan. Continued, too, will be the compound-interest bonus. A $100 bond if left, with coupons untouched until maturity will return $227.50. A record $287,500,000 worth were purchased through payroll deductions last year. Some 646,- 584 employees of 5,197 companies that made the plan available subscribed. It works like this. Investment dealers on loan from their firms help set up plans with company co-operation. In B.C. a team of tor George Sherwood, Vancouver, will visift some 400 estab- nine, headed by Regional direc- lishments throughout the province and the Yukon. Last year this organization achieved an all-time high of sales totalling $20.3 million. chm services ANGLICAN St. Bartholomew's, Gibsons Holy Communion 8 a.m., 2nd, 4th and 5th Sundays 11:15 a.m., 1st and 3rd Sundays 2nd and 5th Sunday, Mattins 11 a.m., Church School 4th Sunday, Family Service St. Aidan's, Roberts Creek 10 a.m., 2nd Sunday .

The Associated Gropers After Truth and Light, as they sometimes sorrowfully call themselves. The politics1 of a democratic nation are neither simple nor efficient. Clausewitz, Germany's scholarly professor of militarism, wrote a comment upon war which could apply equally to democratic government: "War is the province of simplicity, but in war the simple is made difficult." The Canadian parliamentary system is the traditional one, based upon the adversary system. While government has a duty to govern, the Loyal Opposition has a duty to criticize every government move, to seek out all the flaws of new legislation, even isoome flaws merely born of apprehension. A few Canadians express dislike of the system. They ask why Parliament should bicker and squabble. They dislike the froth of words' which covers' Parliament Hill. They want action, simple and direct and they want it speedily. A few of these critics of the system are true authoritarians of the extreme left or right of politics. Their desire for dictatorship is logical. But most critics, in my observation, consider themselves dedicated democrats and would be appalled by the suggestion that they are anything else. Yet few of these who are impatient with the adversary system of Parliament accompany their criticism with any suggestion of an alternative. Only the tip of the iceberg of imperfections shows in' the special arena of the House of Commons, where the parties offer theft* set-piece debates. Within the parties are disagreements on tactics, disputes on policy and the ever present 6 Coast News, Oct. 14, 1970. human condition of personal animosities. ��� The Parliamentary comimittees may delay legislative ' action, sometiines on a partisan basis, sometimes on a multi-party basis. Individual MPs, a notably individualistic breed, bring their own private convictions to bear on legislative action. The special interests of 263 Canadian constituencies, not one of which is identical with any other, are reflected in any number of ways, open or subtle. Disagreements exist also within the government. It could scarcely be otherwise among 29 men. The rule of cabinet secrecy usually succeeds in cloaking these disputes until, occasionally one erupts in the resignation of a minister. So far in this Parliament, Paul Hellyer alone carried disagreement to the point of resignation. Commons, comimittees, caucuses, cabinet and cabinet committees, cabals, and the mighty caste of civil service mandarins all lumber along on democracy's square-wheeled chariot. It would be depressing, except that the alternative, a dictator in a bulletproofed Cadillac looks worse. Photo by Dennis Gray STUBBS ��� CALDWELL r\f M4 N NEW/ Letters to editor Got your peekers yet?

B.CTEL\ Editor: A most hearty thanks for your help in publicizing Red Cross blood donor clinics. As you are well aware it takes continuous reminders to keep the number of donors up to the quota the blood bank needs for hospitalized patients in British Columbia. Fear, apathy or inconvenience are considered the usual reasons persons do not contribute blood, and poor weather is always a fine excuse! However, people are wonderful and it has been found, over the years of the Red Cross blood transfusion service that a reminder or two is all that is needed to get response to the needs of others. Thanks a million! ���(Mrs.) Nina Anthony, Public Relations Director, B.C.-Yukon Division. St. Hilda's Church, Sechelt, was tastefully decorated by the Altar Guild for the wedding of Penny Lynne Caldwell, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Donald Caldwell, Sechelt, and Stanley George Stubbs, son of Mr. and Mrs. George Stubbs of Gower Point, at seven o'clock on Oct. 3 1970.

Does that include me?"- * Point of law (By a Practicing Lawyer) Q. I left my car with a friend of mine while I went away on my holidays but when I got back I discovered that he'd dam aged the car. Is he responsible? A. This is a very common kind of transaction and is known in law as a bailment. A bailment consists of the delivery of a chattel, in your case a car, to another person for some special purpose with an implied understanding that at the end of a set time the property will be returned to the owner. The person who owns and delivers the chattel is called the bailor and the person to whom it is delivered is called the bailee. If you gave your friend instructions not to use your car while you were away and he did not charge you anything for keeping the car he is only obligated to take such care of the car as an ordinarily careful person would take of Ms own car. If the car is damaged the bailee is not liable to the bailor unless the damage occurred because of the bailee's gross negligence or because he disobeyed or disregarded the bailor's instructions. ;��� Q. My next door neighbor Sorrows things all the time, like the lawn mower and rakes, then when I get them back there always seems to be something wrong with them. Am I lending them at my own risk? A. In this type of situation the bailee has an obligation to the bailor to exercise very great care in keeping and using whatever he has borrowed. He would be liable for even the slightest negligence. The bailee cannot use the articles for any purpose other than the purpose for which they were lent. If he does, then he becomes ��� liable to the bailor for any damage whatsoever. Furthermore if the bailee lends the lawnmower to another neighbor the bailee becomes liable for any damage to it while the other neighbor has it. But it must be noted that the bailee is not liable for any damage to the lawnmower caused by ordinary wear and tear or for any Joss due to fire or theft unless it can be shown that he was negligent. Q. When you go into restaurants you often see signs over the coat rack "Not responsible for articles lost or stolen." Can they do this? A. Yes, a restaurant owner may restrict his liability for his guests lost or stolen property by posting a notice to that.ef- , feet in a conspicuous place in his restaurant. And of course the most conspicuous place for (Copyright) such a sign would be right at or above the coat-rack. Q. When I travelled by plane last year I checked my big travel bag but I kept my small overnight bag on the rack above my seat and someone took it. The airline company said they were not liable ��� is that right? A. Yes, a passenger's personal or hand-type luggage must be distinguished from the larger type of luggage normally checked with the carrier airline. Your small overnight bag was at all times in your custody and since the airline was not negligent you cannot hold the airline liable for its loss. If it is any consolation to you the airline would have been liable for the luggage that you checked if it had been lost or stolen.
