St Mary's Hospital at Garden Bay was built 28 years ago and has been serving the area ever" since. If all the tragedy and happiness occurring there during those years could be unfolded before the eyes of people along the Sunshine Coast they would be startled. Not only because of the events but because of the scope and quantity. If one requires information* on the importance and growth of the hospital, here are a few figures. Admissioins to the hospital in 1953 numbered%95 and in 1957, 600. Patient days in 1953 numbered 2,337 and in 1957, 5,137. With growth in numbers also comes growth in the type of services that must be offered. From where, do the people come who use the services of St. Mary's Hospital? In 1957 there were 295 from Halfmoon Bay to Jervis Inlet. From Sechelt to Port Mellon there were 217. The difference in the area numbers is not so great when one considers that from Sechelt to Port Mellon, Vancouver hospital facilities, are not.too far away. St. Mary's Hospital is growing with the community and its financial requirements ��are growing in like proportion. Some'will wonder why the need for community funds is necessary. The answer is simple. The provincial government hospital insurance plan covers basic operation costs of the hospital and does not allow for the increase of facilities and equipment. This must be provided by the community and the only help from the hospital plan is that one-third of such cost can be obtained through government sources but the community must provide the other two-thirds. That is Why St. Mary's Hospital is appealing for funds to help expand its facilities to provide better service for the community.' You, the reader, can help this .worthwhile cause. Why not give it your support? PLEASURE CRAFT INCREASING / ,.,.^,_. Weekend pleasure craft traffic should convince most people Gibsons harbour needs much more float space for pleasure craft only, than is available now, or wiH be available in the near future, including the $110,000 breakwater scheme now assured. It could be the time is approaching when the economy involving fishboats and the economy involving marine tourist trade will foe equal. Pleasure craft deserve more consideration than'they are now getting. OYSTERS DISLIKE NOISES, TOO ��� Auto noises provided by some drivers may add to their own importance intheir own-estimation but if the estimation of most o*f the residents of the area is considered, those noisy individuals should'be cut down to proper size.

It is quite possible the noisy noises these car drivers create annoythe-oysters as far away as Pender Harbour. 'Sfunny so. many centers are having whisker contests".

A CENTENNIAL FEATURE The fur trade by sea did little for the development of British Columbia on land. Business was carried on aboard ship largely. It was the overland trade, then briskly surging westward from Upper Canada ���which next affeeted the exploration of the province. "' Two great companies, the Hudson's Bay Company and the North West Company were * fostering drives \ toward the Rockies. In 1792, a 37-year-old Scot, Alexander Mackenzie, a "partner" in the North .West Company in charge of the Athabasca district; set out to find a river route across the mountains to the Pacific. He had tried earlier by tracing a river flowing out of Great Slave Lake,. It had carried him instead to the northern Beaufort Sea, and now bears his name. This time he chose to follow the'Peace. He followed it to the confluence of the Finlay and the Parsnip. From the source of the Parsnip he portaged only 817 paces across a mountain divide to the source of the Bad River and the Pacific watershed. Mackenzie lost supplies in river wrecks, he was threaten-.; ed by Indians,, but he carried on to the north fork of the Fraser. The Indians directed him away from the. Fraser to the Blackwater Or Westroad River which led him to the Coast at Bella Coola. '*'> He missed-meeting 'Captain George Vancouver there by one month. At Elcho Harbour, near Cascade Inlet,^ he had Indian trouble ��� a difficulty which was minimized by a^ magnifying glass, according to spme records. Mackenzie . and his party, their backs to a rock were ready to die fighting. *The Indians delayed their ,, attack, however, a\ least until some barter was completed. They had sear meat and the expedition had hunger* ��� r ; Mackenzie's companion Alexander Mackay produced a magnifying glass which was used to light::���? a cooking fire. The Indians were so awed they forgot their animosity: land finally traded off their/best skins for the;glass.'y-A��� ������'AAA:, yy ::;Thet.expedition.;^tia^ed Jts route. :?MacJce'rizie';.was? ;knight- ��� ed soon after^Inlands .explpr'a-"' tion was coritiriued?infthe next ; few years ^ by James Finlay and James McDougall/who followed ? the Peace, !the Finlay, the: Parspip r* Rivers. I To the South,1 thef .Americari)s: Lewis and Clark arrived at the mouth of the.Columbia in 1804. -In 1805, another young Scot, Simbn jPraser; alsp a partner in the ' North /West. ,'. Company, marked his 29th year; by leaving Fort William to take over the Pacific inland fur trade. ���t So many businessmen will get up in the morning, refresh themselves with a dose of advertised salts.

He, established the first trading, post in the province of B.C., at Fort McLeod, at Lake McLeod, a.source of the Peace River system. He / called the country New Caledonia and dotted it with Fort St, James and Fort Fraser on Fraser Lake. (His companion John Stuart was actual founder of the latter). Simon Fraser sought to connect Fort St. James and Fort McLeod by road to reduce the time and hazards involved in river travel between the two points, .The 86-mile trail became British Columbia's first highway. In 1807 Fraser founded Fort George, where Prince George stands today. His trip to discover whether the Fraser was a tributary of the Columbia began in 1808. He found navigation impossible 'and trekked along the banks for many miles. At Lil- looet he found a fortified Indian village. At Lytton, to make friends with the inland tribes he shook hands with 1,200 Indians ��� a gesture which brought him new canoes. Here he honored is colleague, David Thompson, by naming the river he had followed hi from the east ��� the ���Thompson River. Historians note Simon Fraser found fleecejbearing dogs at Spuzzum;> which recently had been shorn. From Yale he found the river passable by canoe and progressed to the present site of New Westmin- . . ster. v ' ' , ��� In the ^ vicinity of Marpole, Fraser was ��� attacked by the Cowichans who had. noted the tide left his,canoes high and dry. By fasit portage the party (escaped harm! Fraser returned up-river, disappointed that' his .river was not a branch of the .Columbia. He went to Athabas- ka, then to the Red River settlement and never returned here. He died at Cornwall Ont., at 86,?in 1862? ? Between 1807 and 1811, another North West Company explorer, David Thompson, was engaged in opening the Koo-v tenays. Famed as the great . geographer of Western Canada Thompson made maps with ������ great accuracy. -Though driven back once by hostile ^Indians, ': Thompson probed the1 Columbia River sources, established ; Kootenay House, Kullyspell ' House arid Salish House and in 1810 or 1811^ Spokane House. In 1811 he descended the Columbia to its mouth where he found a* hew opposition to his, ' company's fiir -trade ' ��� Fort Astoria ��� erected by American employees of the Pacific ��� Fur Company: ' His map of Western Canada, compiled in the following two years,,aided greatly in subsequent discovery and settlement ��� Meantime, the fur trade by sea met some disasters. The sea traders who follow ed Cook and Meares and Vancouver often resorted to supplying liquor tb the Indians to muddle them and cheat them in barter. In 1803 and 1810, greed arid arrogance was repaid in kind. The American ship Boston, anchored at Nootka, near the village of Chief Maquinna in 1803. Her Captain Salter, gave the chief a fowling: piece. The chief returned it stating it was faulty. A row ensued which the chief outwardly ignored. But smarting with wounded pride, he enveigled' Salter into permitting a party of braves to board ship for a dance. The crew obtained great enjoyment until the moment when the cutups begame cutthroats. Only a sailmaker and.an armourer survived and they became slaves to Maquinna. They Were: rescued two years later. In. 1810, another American ��� ship, the Tonquin, out of New York, came to Clayoquot Sound, also on the west^Coast of Vancouver Island. Accounts of he.tragedy vary. One says the captain threw a chief overside when bartering went tod slowly. Fifty unarmed Indians came- aboard later and traded skins for knives and biankets. The blankets were placed in their canoes, the knives hidden on their; persons. Soon the blades were transferred again, buried this time in the backs of Ton- quin's crew. Five crewmen escaped the first onslaught, reached guns and evened the score. Four took to a small boat. The fifth was left to die. He,' (said to be a clerk named Lewis), waited until the Indians again came to the ship, and when it was well loaded^ fired the magazine, blowing all to happy hunting grounds The four who 'left' by boat were wrecked and killed also. i-'. .' Fewer fur traders now come to Nootka. But exploration was well underway now from thee east. The trails had been blazed and B.C. was nearing the birth of ordered government and the mass immigration the gold rush was* to inspire within 50 years. At various times' in history counterfeiting has been punishable by death. Mr Guaranteed Watch & Jewelry Repairs Chris" jewelers '.

Something, has happened to EaniDurgh and I thinic it is the r?esulit of the'Festival in that she is now aware of her charm and of her -background, and has tidied lijrself and .her tsreats, suDstitutea a first-class bus system for her street cars and .ha.*: set up direction* signs at every bus stop-so that anyone can find his way around. In Glasgow you are aware of be.ng'in a large and friendly city, in Ed._ibur_h you ieei thao too, but txiere is also tne very distinct feeling, that you are in the proud capital of a prosperous nation. ��� ' . Alter having experienced what the Jbruxsa l���uiways_can uo in- .the way. of ordinary service, Vvnich is jj'uoc where we left it in 1918, it was a pleasant surprise to get into an, emerald- green 7-coach* diesel train at Glasgow and make the -, run to Edinburgh* in an hour, i he train is as new as, iio-morxow- and is quite up to anything in Canada, and is one of a series of replacements now under way. The sta- . tions are just as grimy and unchanged as ever they were; the ,6-nly distinct difference being the public address sysllem. Mary and I, were over to the district where we used to live, Marchmont, and there, was not the slightest difference in its appearance in all (these ye_rs, ex- e'ept that a few of the stores' had changed hands. From there we walked up to;' the Braid Hills, where there is the city's world- famous ������ golf course. We were, fortunate- to talk with! the head green keeper and he told us of the changes, the .most striking one being? that whereas I used to pay twopence for a. round, today I have to pay three shillings., "; '''���' '*���",: ? ���-:���' ���_- ���Edinburgh has a famous zoo. and weispent most of a day there.. _ iiu., covers most pf one side oi Costprphine ��� Hill and the larger tanimaiS ar ^housed in what seem ' to be old quarries,; lions,- tigers, leopards, - wo lv es? andv hears. Every animisri' has lots? of room, arid .they were obviously; happy. There was- also a," large /penguin enclosure- v ? .; ���?";'������'���: v In View .of the publicity given by the Vancouver Parks,'Board to the raising of a penguin .-chick*-- this year or last year, it was of interest to:read. a quiet little notice on the penguin enclosure, that Edinburgh had; the largest = collection of penguins in'the world, and had been breeding them sffcee 1919 and had supplied penguins to zoos all over Europe. We were lucky to be there at the ihour when .the penguins were ��� let out of -their enclosure for? a .parade through the zoo. We - noticed Nthem two or three at a time, lining up at the gate, and right on the half-hour,-out fbhey went, with a.keeper ahead, and one - behind, the 1953 penguin chick' paddling along with the "second keeper, with* whom were also two of the smaller breed who. managed to sneak inito the procession. The birds obviously eajjoyed? the walk, and one and all had a very snooty demeavour in looking us over. . . - ���>, l^ast Saturday? I went too Melrose to see r the Seven a Side Eugby tournament. This is Eng-. DEATH BENEFITS More than 1 $3.3 million was' paid oyifriri death,benefits1 by the 60-odd British, Canadian, United States?:and Netherlands' life?:inr . surance?companies operating in Canada during the first three months of 1958-in the" province of British Columbia, the Canadian Life Insurance Officers Association reports. On 780 ordinary policies, payments were $2,382,000j on 330 industrial" policies $85,000; and on 340 group'certificates $858,-. 000. ' lish rugby, played with seven men on. a team insteau oi Lo, and there were 16 teams playing on a knock-ouit> basis, it tooii; about five hours to complete the playing, which was held in th^ Greenyards, as the park is called, a short distance from Melrose Abbey. There were about 10,000 present, -male and female, all \vith_, expert knowledge of the game; The teams, were the pick of Scotland, 'ihe one big difference." between what they do here and what we do wasv the unquestioning reception of. tne referees' decisions h'Mi by the players, and spectators. Melrose is in the- shadow^ o�� the Eildon Hils, under which King.-Arthur* is'said to be buried, and on which the Roman camp of Trimontuim stood, and where, the old S c o-"t s ballad-malcer, Thomas the Rhymer Thomas of Encildowne, me j. the. Queen , of Fairyland, who led him to a seven-years' visit to her realm. These?hills are about as high as the' Cove at Hopkins. .On tha way down to Melrose; we ran along the side of av stream, the ��� Gala Water of song, and story, which, is about the size of Wilson Creek. L as t Sunday we attended morning service at St. Giles Cathedral, and happened to be steated in the stalls of the Merchant Company of Edinburgh,? at whose schools both Mary and I were educated. These massive stalls seat four in a row and are deeply padded and haye. projecting cheek-pieces so youi are cut off from your neighbor. In this old cathedral hang the banners of the knights of the Th-jstle, the colors of Scotland's regiments, and in the centre of all* the red and Ibhe white ensigns. < The service was most impressive, and the minister passed in procession right in front of us, at the conclusion of the service, in his vestments pf crimson, black and violet,' the embodiment of the dignity of the Church of. Scotland. He did not know thai there was one watching him, who had been his fellow-sL-udent at Edinburgh University, when he was one of the merriest of tha class. As we were leaving, the gentleman who had sat next us, beckoned to me, and asked me if 1 was from Vancouver. I told him thafa 1 was and he then asked me if I was the man who had spoken to him on a bus a few days be-v fore and had asked him what was a "good Presbyterian Church that he cculd.. go to on Sunday." It looks as if I must have a da-able loose in Scotland, for this other man was from' Van-, couver. One thing notable about Edinburgh is the number of excellent places to eat.

Owing to the >.migration/of many spectators to the Sussex- vaie via smallboat, the ceremony at the Cenotaph was delayed about a half hour, but the impressive flag raising, and laying of the wreath on the monument by the Cadet Company was worth the wait. The May Queens and their entourage retired to the Totem . Room for a banquet, before primping for the ball at the Indian School Hall. The softball game with Sechelt vs. Navy drew a good part of the crowd. The jaiopy races in West Sechelt attracted hundreds - of racing fans.
