He is* William Farnham of R. R. 1, Gibsons and he was 100 years old on Tues., Jan. 19. A quiet party was held with members of the family only present.

He came to Gibson*:** in 1948 from Chilliwack area where he had farmed since 1911. Before then he had travelled over quite a piece of tbe world in Australia, South Africa, Ceylon, United States and at one time hitch-hiked all the way from Vancouver to New York.

Before sitting down Mr. Ballentine urged the board to consider appointing someone to write the life history of Mr. Burns so that it would be on record. The actual ceremony of naming Mr. Burns did not take more than two minutes because Mr. Ballentine wa**; so moved he could not bring him self to make what might be termed a speech. President Walter Nygren after Mr. Ballentine had seated himself declared the selection of Mr. Burns to be most appropriate and a more deserving choice could not have been made. Mr. Ballentine explained the choice had been made last October and it had been kept secret until the announcement made at the Beard of Trade meeting. - * ' Death removed Robert Burns, Gibsons foremost old- timer Monday morning.

Robert Burns The passing of Robert Burns has removed a man who is a part of the history not only of Gibsons but the Sunshine Coast. He came to Gibsons as a boy about 1900 and moved about the coastal area over a period of years. . He. was once a partner with Al Jackson who died in Octo- feerof 1955.:Al and Bob were brothers-in-law and teamed to log ia various parts of Howe Sound area notably Gambier Island. It was in 1928 Bob was involved in a logging accident on Vancouver Island when he lost a leg, which left him in hospital ���for some months. Eventually he gravitated towards a more sedentary vocation and became village clerk for Gibsons municipality. To really get to know Bob as a municipal clerk and friend <���� the people, one had to sit through village council meetings, where he would weigh the pros and cons oi a problem with a thoughtfulness which would leave no stone unturned. There ���were times his arguments would appear to be somewhat backward but it would turn out that Bob was right and that what he said is what the law or the situation would allow. It was after municipal meetings had adjourned that Bob ���would recall some incident of many years ago and keep members of the village council still seated in their chairs while he -delved into this or that situation as it was before a certan date. Bob Burns was of the type that could only do his work one way and that was to be strictly honest. Bob was politically a member of the CCF party but he was rarely heard saying unkind things about other political parties. He supported his own ideas and they best fitted into the CCF philosophy. There is no replacement for Bob Burns in this area It will Sake years and years of municipal experience to catch up with the knowledge he had. Bob was noted in Victoria by government officials as a reliable village clerk who did not ask foolish questions. He was meticulous in his requirements as municipal clerk and was just at meticulous in looking after the needs of ihe residents of the-municipality. As a boy Bob remembered this area when the cow trails were the main roads. Many a story he could spin about the early days. It was a suggestion that set him to writing a history of this area. About three years ago in conversation Bob was urged to sometime sit down and write down on paper what he could recall of the early days. He said he would think it over. Some: anonths later Bob walked into the Coast News office, placed a packet on the counter and said it was the history of the village ��f Gibsons As readers may remember it ran in the Coast News in. 1957 and is now possibly the only personalized history of this area in print. The loss of Bob Burns in this community is equally as great ���as that of Al Jackson when he died. Here were two men who when they spoke did not mince their meanings. They were both ���wen who obtained their experience in the school of real hard kecks. We could do with more of their type today. For Bob Burns as with Al Jackson may his soul rest in peace. Both lived a life in which the word selfishness could not t��e found. Both worked always for the best. Al preceded Bob in death. Now both have gone to their long rest. A need well-filled Not too many years ago Gibsons Public Library was a few shelves in the office of Dick McKibbin who convenientlySfound some business to do elsewhere during library hours once or twice a week. Today, according to the same Mr. McKibbin, retiring president of the public library there are now 2,700 books in the library, a building extension underway which would allow sufficient space for 6,000 books, a thriving juvenile story hour Saturday mornings and a well-used juvenile library to support it. Gibsons Public Library is also in a sound financial condition due to generous donations from government as well as pri- Trate sources. If one wonders about the possible value of a library stocked with books in a place like Gibsons, it would be well to ponder on the total circulation of the last year, 9,290 books, an increase of 2,340 books over the previous year. This represents almost one-third more books read last year compared to the year Ijefore. To point out statistics about a library is a small part of the operation. The devoted workers who tend to the operation of the ���library also deserve praise because it is their help which, makes *he library the community enterprise it is.

JOHN ALLAN McWHINNIE Dated December 2nd, 1959. Tremendous hydro electric developments in British Columbia seem tantalizingly close to action. What will they mean to British Columbia, and indirectly to all of Canada? First we might glance briefly at the over-all aspect. There are three mighty rivers which may be used in the foreseeable future to provide electricity. These are the Fraser, ths Columbia, and the Peace Rivers. However, the realists of the private power companies seem to have written off the Fraser as a supply source within the next decade at least. No solution has been found, as yet, which will give large scale hydro and still maintain the salmon runs. Right now in British Columbia there is an involved struggle going on over hydrlo-electric development ��� whether Columbia or the Peace shall receive priority; whether development1 "and distribution shall be by public or private agencies, or a combination of the two. Hydro development in British Columbia, therefore is inextricably involved in provincial politics. It is power politics, and politics in power. Peace River hydro seems certain to be the one which will be developed first. The present Social Credit government seems firmly committed to the Wenner Gren promotion. A change of government in the next election might change the ground rules somewhat, but undoubtedly the project will be far enough along by then that the essential permits will have been secured. If the price is not too high, the Peace River hydro development will be another seven league step forward for Western Canada. By "Price" we do not mean the dollars and cents of dams and turbines, nor price of power delivered to factories and home.-. We mean the sacrifice of other natural resources for benefit of power development. That is an important reservation, but the matter is one on which even the acknowledged experts do not agree. The project is staggering in its total outlay of materials; money and manpower. Construction in itself would add a buoyancy throughout the province for the three or four years of the main construction period. A large scale construction project is like the modern military operation ��� for every man "in the line" there are at least a dozen employed in supply and auxiliary services. These benefits will be felt throughout Canada, not just in the West. Establishment of large scale industry in the Peace River Block has been envisioned by those speaking in favor of this project. This would be a big prize, as industrialization is a prime need for the West whera so mti^h of the production? is marketed in its raw state, or at best, semi-manufactured. The great benefit to this province and to all of Canada will be the accelerated development of this Peace River country. More roads, better rail and air transport, new towns with better schools and professional services available ... all these things attract population. And permanent settlement in its hinterland is British Columbia s most pressing need. Thus, the end benefit of Peace River power will be people. (Cloverdale Surrey Leader). SYMPHONY WEEK Highlighting the drive for funds to cover the annual operating deficit of the Vancouver Symphony Society, Jan. 22 to 29' has been proclaimed "Symphony Week" by Mayor A. T. Alsbury.

Closure is a device used by the House of Commons to end excessive debate or. systematic obstruction. It gives a cabinet minister the right, provided he has given notice of his intention at a previous sitting of the House, to move that the matter under discussion be not further considered. Shch a motion is not debatable andtniust be voted on at ones. If the motion is passed, any further speeches on the subject in question cannot exceed 20 minutes and a vote must be taken by a specified time. Closure was first applied in 1913 during the debate on the Naval Construction Bill. It was ulsed in 1917 in connection with the Wartime Elections Act, in 1921 in connection with a Canadian National Railways bill and in 1932 in connection with a relief bill. The device was not used again until 1956.

A question and answer summary of the sonic boom phenomenon, and its accompanying noise and damage potential. What is the pressure magnitude of these sounds? The loudest thunderclap recorded generated a pressure of around *&��� pound per square foot. 'The loudest sounds normally found in a boiler factory aroi around one pound per square foot. The difference between the boiler factory noise and a thunderclap is that the boiler factory noise is continuous and that the thunderclap occurs suddenly, often, without warning, and lasts only a fraction of a second. The boiler factory noise produces a pressure wave twice as great as the pressure produced "by the thunerclap yet it is not particularly fightening since it is an expected noise. In tests, ;wthere airplanes v-have- dived from 35,000 feet and pulled out at 25,000 feet, scientists have measured pressure no greater than 5 pounds per square foot on the ground. Even when the aircraft descends to 10,000 feet before pulling out of its dive the recorded pressure did not reach 10 pounds per square foot. Rarely are faster than sound operations carried out at altitudes lower than 20,000 feet. This would mean that sonic boom pressures no greater than 5 pounds per square foot are expected to be observed on the ground. However, these pressures are still 10 times greater than the recorded strongest thunderclap. A sonic boom, with a pressure 10 times stronger than a thunderclap is readily understood to be a startling phenomenon. "What pressure is required to cause structural damage? Scientists and engineers observing the effects 0f ��� shock waves generated by atomic explosions have never observed structural damage to the flimsiest of structures at pressures less than 70 pounds per square foot. Applying simple arithmetic, this is 65 pounds more than the pressure normally observed from a sonic boom. The behaviour of dwellings and^industrial buildings of block, bricK, and frame construction, tested by nwiclear explosions have revealed that it takes free stream pressure on the order of 150 to 300 pounds per square foot to cause damage ranging from plaster cracks to wall and roof cracks. Even the strongest sonic boom pressure recorded by scientists at this time cannot CAN YOU STOP .' ���&9fiwwve�� < SAFETY^ / SPACE DOWN WATCH THAT SPRAY . In rainy weather stay far enough behind, the car ahead so it won't spray road grime on your windshield and temporarily blind you. A split second can mean the difference between avoiding an accident and having one, especially on wet roads. cause pressure even approaching this magnitude . In fact, the strongest measurement scientists- have ever been able to get was on a mountain top from an aircraft flying 280 feet away. The recorded pressure was 33 pounds per square foot. This is not sufficient pressure to cause structural damage. It is highly unlikely than any jet pilot would operate an aircraft at sonic or supersonic speeds at an altitude' of 280 feet except under extremely unusual conditions. YOUR NEW Watkins Dealer Mr. T. Sinclair Phone SECHELT 78T licenses avaiia* From letters being received ���both by the minister of commercial transport and by the office of the B. C. Federation of Agriculture it is apparent there is confusion in many farmers' minds as to whether or how they are to receive the promised encessiori of reduced truck licence fees, for 1960. This is brought about by the fact that the billing notice for licence fee which the farmer .receives is on the higher rate that is going into effect for other trucks, but when the farmer goes to purchase his new licence there will be forms available which he signs making an affidavit that he is a rancher or farmer, and on completion of this form he will then pay riot the amount on his licence notice but the same fee as the licence on that truck would have cost in 1959. noon tea were provided by the hostess. Quilting began at 10:30 a.m. The Garden Club held its monthly meeting Jan. 14 at the Community Hall. After a business session, films of local gardens were shown. Of special interest was a film of Japanese Gardens depicting the Banzai method of diminutive gardening. By this method, fir, pine and other trees are grown in pots. A beautiful pink azalea grown in a pot had a stem about five inches in diameter and was only two feet high with a wealth, of gorgeous blooms. These artistic gardens with tiny bridges and streams show the love the Japanese have for growing things. The Banzai method of gardening could be tried here and should prove interesting to garden, lovers. H. Alan was projectionist. Travel films will be shown at the Community Hall Jan. 27 at 2:30 p.m. sponsored by the Recreation Commission. Everyone welcome. Mr. A.

BLACKBALL A $100,000 foundation to help junior farmers of B. C. has been set up by Vancouver industrialist George W. Nor- gan. It will be distributed by officers of the PNE board of directors and has been registered under the Societies Act as the George W. Norgan Foundation. Tr.e money will be administered by a national trust company and only the revenues from it will be available for distribution for the first 20 years. During the second 20- year period the Foundation officers may use the capital as well as the revenues. The Foundation money will be used to: 1. Establish, maintain and support scholarships and bursaries; 2. Make grants and interest-free loans to junior farmers attending universities or recognized agricultural colleges or ether educational institutes. 3. Make grants to assist junior farmer attendance at exhibitions, competitions and fairs. 4. Promote the welfare and development of Junior Farmers' organizations. The Foundation constitution identifies a potential recipient as "an individual under 21 engaged or active in agriculture." Each application will be studied and handled on its own merit by the officers of the Foundation. While at least four of these must be PNE executive board members, the fifth can be any person out- !side that organization whom they choose to name. When George Norgan conceived the idea of setting up a foundation to help young farmers, he was inspired by his recollections of his boyhood in Palmefston, Ont., more than a half-century ago. He was born on a farm in a family of eight, and when he was still a boy his father moved into Palmerston where he operated a general store and young George, with the agres- sive industry that has marked Ihis career, became, through circumstance,, a junior farmer in every sense of the term. He raised poultry and pig- eons-for profit and did so well that by. the time he reached the age of 14, he had 15 varieties of poultry for sale and a flock of more than 100 pigeons He entered his birds in different Ontario fairs including the Canadian National Exhibition.. So chqice was his stock .that.'he. won a total of 60'prizes' '���- money, medals and trophies ��� in a.single year. Flushed with the success of his first enterprise he sold his birds and armed with the money came to the decision that Palmerston did not offer enough and so he entrained for Toronto to make his fortune. Unlike the heroes of the Horatio Alger stories of his day, he found Toronto a difficult nut to crack and eventually wound up working in a shoe store for $5 a week. When his father decided to move back to the farm and offered him the store he hesitated only long enough to buy a one-way ticket home. As the proprietor of a store he found his natural bent and within a few years was operating the most progressive retail outlet in Ontario according to a publication of that period called the Canadian Grocer. That magazine paid tribute to his versatility in an article titled "The Most Complete Grocery Store in the Province." It was in those years, too, that he first managed a baseball team, Palmerston's own, and piloted it to a provincial ichampinship title. Years later he was to do almost the same thing with a professional team that he bought in Portland and owned for nine years. . Mr. Norgan never forgot his home town and he returned there years later to build a theatre which he donated to the people with the one stipulation that children would always be allowed in for five cents only. He has never lost his love (for the farm nor his deep interest in farming occupations. He now lives on a lavish spread in Richmond called Amcan Farms; Limited where Mrs. Norgan maintains a string of thoroughbreds listed as Am- ,can Acres Limited. He still ?. raises poultry of rare breeds Expert Service on Lloyd wagons and Volkswagens DEAL WITH CONFIDENCE : at that are invariably champions in the several exhibitions in which he enters them. In the discreet manner that has typified his philanthropies over the years Mr. Norgan has done much for youth, not only in his home town, but here in B. C. in the 46 years he has lived here. He is honorary director of "Vancouver Boys' Club association and Camp Artaban. He has also contributed to summer camps for city children and built lodges for them.

For a dash of color and good- for-the-teeth crunchiness, make a twist-pouch of cheese-filled celery bits, carrot slices, or radish rosebuds.

A happy solution can usually be .worked out for most childhood problems. It is good for children, as they grow older, to know something about the way their father earns aliving. If they have * no. opportunity to learn about his work, they are apt to take him very much for granted. A father can often; influence his children in their attitude not only to his own job but to all work. If Mother's task is home- making and Dad earns the money, he sees more of the outside world than his wife. For that reawwi he can frequentlv be more helpful to a son or daughter in the choice of then- own life work���providing father .realizes that this is a decision a young person must make for himself or herself! * * * Children need both parents. If they lose a father by death or divorce they are apt to be bitter. But it is quite possible,, for them to lose touch with -a*}father if he is: indifferent to tfieni,. if he is too preoccupied with making money or if; he is away from home a great deal of; the time. Recently we visited a Home for Boys and we longed so for happier days ahead for these youngsters, all of them from broken homes. One particularly sullen and hostile lad had been in over a dozen foster homes. None of them had known the affection and stability which should be every child's birthright. The children who are unadjusted and unhappy frequently come from homes where father and mother have not given them understanding and guidance. The mother has:- the major responsibility for the children's upbringing, but the father provides necessary balance. In a family where parents work and plan and play together with their children, boys and girls are prepared for adulthood when they will have homes of their own.

C, states J. H. Harris. Dwarf trees closely planted produce as much per acre or more than conventionally spaced standard trees. Moreover, they bear the second or third year after planting and are in good production in six years. Of several varieties on test at Saanichton, Mcintosh on Mailing IX has given outstanding yields. For this variety 50 trees were planted 4 feet apart in a 200-foot row in an orchard with 12 feet between rows. (It has since been found that a spacing withn the row of ��� or 7 feet would have been more economical.) The trees were mulched with 3 inches of sawdust, which is kept at that depth. In the second year after planting the trees produced 32 forty-pound boxes on an acre basis, 182 boxes the third year, 305 in the fourth, 410 in the fifth and 870 in the sixth. These high yields were obtained before standard trees bore fruit and'the fruit had a good finish and for. the most part graded fancy or extra fahcy.
