Ph. 886-2116 ���- Gibsons, B.C. toaidboard Sechelt District School Board at its Tuesday morning meeting approved a suggestion that a lay committee be formed composed of members from the general pub. lie who will be at the call of the district superintendent, G. -E-. Johnson to discuss school board affairs when necessary. It is hoped that through such a committee the'board'1 will be able to open a two-way channel ��� to and from the public, thereby giving representative members of the public the views of the board and receiving in return opinions of the "public. This committee .when formed will cover the whole school' board area and would hold meetings at convenient times and places. There may be other committees of this type in the province but none are known. A letter from St. Bartholomew's Anglican ~ church officials- replying to one from the board seeking the continued use of the parish hall as a classroom", amounts ed to a polite refusal in the request that it was hoped the school board will seek new school space as soon as possible. Church officials felt the use of the hall should benefit parishioners Rebekahs' official visit Mrs. Pearl Betts, assembly president paid an official visit to the; Sunshine Rebekah Lodge 82 recently.

Principal suggests PTA review its A fresh approach to the functions of a PTA was proposed by George Cooper, principal of Sechelt Elementary school in a report made to the PTA- Mr. Cooper ventured the opinion that a clear re-assessment of the parr PTA is to play in Sechelt is urgently required. Here is the complete report as: presented by Mr. Cooper: 7 k AlA'A '"''������' '������"���'- . During the past seasoa the pro- k^rarirs-df the *P^ the physical education report by Mr. Dennison of UBC and a primary arithmetic demonstration by Miss Chritoff of Madeira Park which offered outstanding interest to the teachers and parents alike. On other occasions, two elementary school teachers, Mrs. Lan? and Mrs. Seymour presented demonstrations of methods an J materials used iri teaching the primary and intermediate grades. Other speakers have opened new prbspectives of related educational activities. In the way of direct school assistance, the PTA has given cash grants to the school to purchase filmstrips and additions to the special class library, as. well as ten $1 cash prizes for the Family Nite poster contest. The preschool dental program was organized by the PTA and successfully .administered by them. School insurance was considered but not undertaken by the PTA. Assistance from individual members in carrying pupils from Sechelt to Elphinstone to 'stage a play was, cheerfully forthcoming. The attendance at the annual Family Night Concert provided a glum outlet for individual and group skills. At the present moment the PTA has under discussion the assis- tingin the Sports Day with lunches and providing money for prizes for the outstanding students in the intermediate grades. While all these activities are quite in keeping with the general objects of the PTA and with school auxiliary functions of tha local organization, unfortunately attendance of teachers and parents has been so small in numbers as to give cause to reflect the need of a local PTA. Opinions expressed among the staff, including my own, range from a sincere doubt that the PTA Is. performing any successful func- tiori in the area of a parent- teacher relationship to the feelings of weariness at the continuous repetition of the same old cycle of program year after year The* fact that parents and teachers remain away from the TOYNBEE AS DIRECTOR John Toynbee of Sechelt attended the recent annual meeting in Vancouver of the British Columbia Tourist association. Mr. Toynbee represented the Sunshine Coast Tourist Association. Ralph Baker, president of Standard Oil of British Columbia was named president and Mr. Toynbee, director. meetings would seem to confirm these opinions. It must be emphasized here ythat the staff have faith in the", potential value ol JPTA as a co-orcEnator of teacher and parent views; | It .is my opinion that af com pleteiy fresh approach fto the functions of this PTA niust ba taken, if this organization is. to ...; be. successful or looking ; on the k&ooiriy-side, even^toyexist.7Per- ^tt^^tn^ai^ffi^^^ jects* such as a play festival for. elementary pupils, the supply of experimental teaching devices/ may add new life. If the community has to do without a PTA executive until a meeting of at least 60 persons gathered to nominate and elect officers and hereby indicate some interest in the organization. It would seem a kind of stateness has crept over the organization. It is my opinion that a clear re-assessment of the part PTA 's to play in this community is urgently required and should be the main business of this meeting until it is resolved and then, and only then, should the usual business of an annual meeting be attended to. ��� George Cooper principal. plan aired Representatives- of Sunshine Coast Recreation commissions met on April 29 with Tom Ruben, recreation consultant and James Panton, director of community programs branch, Victoria, to discuss local recreation needs.

Eric Martin, has been asked to proceed with the formation of a Health Unit to include the Sechelt, Powell River and Howe Sound school districts. Recommendation for this unit came from a joint meeting on May 8, attended by municipal, school board and other officials'- at Squamish. This meeting was'- the folCow-up of a meeting held: in Gibsons April 4 which explored the possibility of a Health-; Unit. This unit would be established in the proposed Health Centre sponsored by Gibsons Kinsmen and Kiwanis clubs. It will cost in the region of $40,000 with provincial and federal grants added to funds raised locally. Following keen discussion the headquarters for the unit was left in abeyance. Powell River was mooted as headquarters but other areas were not too sold on the idea. SHOPPING BUS EXTENDS A Sechelt shopping bus from Wilson Creek to Sechelt on Thurs- oays will start on May 23 to take in Roberts Creek. It will go down Hall road to arrive at the Post Office at 9:45 then move along to Beach Ave., to Elphinstone Road and back to the highway. Fire warning! / The Sechelt Volunteer Fire Brigade has encountered difficulties recently and seeks cooperation of residents in solving them. When an alarm is turned in, the name of the house-owner is usually given and the area in which the house is located such as Wilson Creek or West Sechelt. However not being gifted with second sight they do not know the exact location of the house. It will be appreciated therefore if, when an alarm is turned in, someone is sent outside the house or to the nearest cross roads to direct the Fire Brigade and thus save a great deal of time in reaching the fire.

The picture of the 44-pound salmon caught 50 feet off Port Mellon's dock in last week's issue left many mouths watering and just as many minds mentally fishing' for one just as big, somewhere along the Sunshine Coast. Spreading knowledge that salmon can be caught in Howe Sound is not as productive of action as is a nice picture of a giant-sized fish. This does lure the fishermen to get out and try and.land one o? those beauties. However, like all good things, such an event is not a daily occurence, but is one worth striving for, even if one does hook an unwanted dogfish. . '' This is one, area where keeping up with the Joneses is quite legitimate. Who would not like to be able to come home and plant on the kitchen table a salmon from 20 .lbs'' to ������ well, the limit is what ypu can get on your line..The trouble is you get a whopper just at the time the lady of the House is riot too inclined to get busy with canning.

Beauty for all to enjoy! May is not living up to expectations, besides being cold, windy and wet, we have had thunder, lightning, hail and up in the hills snow, when we should be having warm, sunny days. . However, gardens haven't suffered too much, most rockeries are a blaze of color, tulips flaunt their beauty boldly, pale mauve and white lilacs spread perfume with every breeze, gold and white broom buds are unfolding. But the most beautiful of all sights as one drives along the roads are the dogwoods, suclr a profusion of star like white blooms against lettuce green leaves shown up the more vividly by the back .ground of dark firs, the pink of flowering cherry and blossoms of , fruit trees ��� beauty for all to enjoy. The Julyl celebration Gibsons July 1 committee is busy concentrating on what kind of July 1 it can produce. The July 1 celebration, including a parade and sports events for children is a celebration like Sechelt's May Day festival. Both events are stellar attractions made possible through intensive work by a few people in the two committees. Given fine weather Jboth attractions add to each community's well-being. Considerable planning goes into these events and some funds are ���required to help make them worthwhile.

THE WEEK'S LETTER: I went steads with a boy for about a month. We liked each other very muchu Then he said he had met another girl and thought he liked her. Be said he didn't want to date her when we were still going steady so I gave him ids ring.*%e broke up with the j��#reemeht^that we would still be good friends and _t it didn't work out between them we would go back together again. Only now, he won*!: even look it me, let-alone talk to me. He can't look me in the eye. We see each other often'because we belong to the same club. He doesn't talk But every once in a while I catch him staring at me. Can it be that he is .^shamed and doesn't know.,what [wdo? Should I just give up? I don't want to do that because I like him a,lot and don't want to lose him. I hope he still likes me. We are bo��h 17. Should!:make the first move agtinT. OUR REPLY: Do you think this young lad would have been understanding and agreeable had you told him you found someone you thought you liked better, but since you were not completely sure, you wanted a "vacation" from going steady, with the right to come back if you discovered you had made a mistake? Our bet is that he would have refused to play second fiddle and would never have sat on the sidelines watching you make a trial run with someone else. It might well be true that the boy is ashamed, or embarrassed. Before getting him back, don't you think you should consider the possibility of the same thing hap* periirig in a week or two���when he sees another girl that he "just might happen to like" better?.

The Annex of the Gibsons Elementary school was designed so it could be enlarged by two more classrooms. . In a telephone conversation with the school board office I was told that there is no emergency because:' 1. There is an empty classroom at Sechelt. '������ 2. Langdale and Port Mellon aren't - filled to capacity. 3. If a new classroom is built on the Roberts Creek Elementary School it will not be filled. So with all these empty or partially empty; classrpoms in the district there. is no emergency. In view of thisilffeef the school board should be thankful that the past referendum was turned down as there is no need for more classrooms. The taxpayers have saved themselves $108,000.

The Bay is subject to Squamishes and driving cold rains-from the ' nearby north mountains. Because of the mountain on the east side ?nd large hill on the west the bay ��� often has very short periods of sunlight. The Horseshoe Bay residents have stopped and harassed ferry traffic long enough. Some speculators have gained hold of most cf the parking space near the ferry slip and are literally charg. ing all the traffic can bear ��� contrast this with the large free lots provided at Nanaimo, Tsawwassen, etc., ^by the Toll Authority. It is high time the nonsense about 'fishing' was exposed for its true worth ��� it is just a phoney battlecry for a group of malcontents with limited vision, and for the parking lot speculators. It would be far cheaper and more in the public interest to move the limited potential (when compared to Fisherman's Cove, Burrard, etc.) 'fishing' interests in some sunny sheltered cove. The Toll Authority should be assisted to expropriate the parking lots of the speculators. The Sunshine Coast (Gibsons, Sechelt, Powell River) ferry traffic is growing so rapidly that moving the Nanaimo ferries will only ease the situation for about five years. Far more people are travelling on the ferries than are put-putting into the frigid waters of Horseshoe Bay to catch the elusive salmon. ��� COMMUTER. xm -.- SECHELT MOTOR TRANSPORT LTD.

There just isn't any cutting job that's too tough for the powerful Canadien 27.1. For one thing, it takes a bar up to four feet in length. It makes light work of falling trees ten feet or more through. But there's more to the 271 than that. It really shows up best when you have to work under conditions that really punish a bar and chain. Here you'll find that the slower chain speeds, made possible by the gear drive ratio of 3-1, mean more production per filing. If you want higher chain speeds, a 2-1 ratio gear chain is directly interchangeable. And if you want even greater lugging power, a 3"J/��-l ratio is available. The power plant for this gear-drive is the reliable Canadien engine ��� an engine of proven performance in many parts of the world.

City Prov. i r t i f i i Here is a beautiful simple colonial design which adapts well for either town or country building. The eight rooms are well arranged, to utilize every possible amount of space available. The living.room is located off the entry hall, and offers endless possibilities for furniture arrangements, since it is not necessary to pass- through it to reach other rooms. .Of especial interest is the large family room, which can be completely closed off from the living room. Kitchen has loads of cupboard and storage areas. Staircase to second floor is located in the main entry halK and leads to, four good sized bedrooms, which feature ample closet space in each one, while the large master bedroom also has a study, which could, of course, be used for a sewing room, or plumbing "en suite" if desired. Large bathroom on second floor features double washbasins in the full length, vanity. This home also Shows a full basement, while other features of interest are the extra lavatory facilities on the mainfloor, and the den, which could also be a formal dining room. The clean, classically colonial, lines of the exterior styling are enhanced by the use of shutters on the windows and the-interestingly designed portice at the front door. Carport is accessible from the kitchen, and even this very up to date adjunct of modern living, does not detract from the lovely simple lines of this traditionally styled home.
