The/meeting billed for 7:30 started at 7:45. Shortly before 9 p._ri. Chairman Sam Fladager :. decided the com'triittee would continue until June^ 30 and if nothing had been, achieved as regards the $6,000 still required, for the pool, .-the ���������:'���'cbihiriittee would then resign. Jim Cramer, Kinsmen club member, ��� volunteered to see what could be done with another campaign which could perhaps deal with pledges or any form of public contribution, also the possibility of a change of pool site. ,; ��� ; -.-:v7' ������' Various adult speakers, some, supporters of the. pool project, aired viewis on another project, a community hall. Others who had worked with the project for two or more years wondered where the $6,000 was to come from. This is the amount the pool fund requires to raise $23,- 500. There is something less than $17,000 now held in trust at the Bank of Montreal. ; Council . chairman Wes. B. Hodgson informed the meeting it had to'face facts arid find put frorri- where the $6,000 was to coirie. Chairmari Fladager said he was definitely disappointed with the lack of enthusiasm on the Tpart of the; public. Charles Mandelkau referred to the selfish attitude of certain individuals who had spread propaganda against the pool. He thought that something could be given from most baby bonus cheques to help the children. Others pointed to the size of the crowd and described it as an answer from the public to the committee. ^diiiigsters aboard -��� (By iED THOMSON) She lay; about a quarter of a mile off the -wharf at Sechelt, sleek and gray, bathed in. the bright June sun, H.M.C.S.

Kerr, R. Robson, H. "Marsh, R. Bochee, A. Cumiming and R. Baker took charge and divided up the party for inspection of the ship, ending up with hot dogs and soft drinks in the men's mess. It was a red letter day for the kids and the Navy with its usual wholehearted thoroughness gave the children the time of their lives. One couldn't help but think the ancestors of these very youngsters might well have ibeeri on hand to greet other naval craft of an earlier time, Captain Vancouver, Cook, and Quadra, the Spanish captain. Just before leaving ship the guests were assembled on the after deck and addressed by the captain 'who complimented the youngsters on their interest and good behaviour throughout the visit. .

The watch is now at the Coast News office. Brothers L. J. Wallace, chairman of the provincial Centennial committee officially commemorated Brothers Memorial Park Saturday at a flag-raising cere- money. On the right at the flag is Mrs. Do Wortman and behind Mr. Wallace is Ron Haig, officials of the Gibsons Rural Centennial committee. William Wright, representing the Kiwanis club is on the left. This club has done a considerable amount of work in getting the park ready for public use. In a 4-inch cast iron pipe encased beneatu the rock is a copy of a recent Coiast News, pictures of Gibsons, maps, building statistics and the following letter: To those who pass this way: This marker, erected to designate the Brothers Memorial Park, developed as a playing field as our effort for the Canadian Confederation Centennial observations, will honor Canada and Canadians of the past 100 years. Credit for the idea of the park is cheerfully given to those who Wm. Naylor Roberts Creek, Sechelt and Gibsons Royal Canadian Legion branch members along with auxiliary members held a Le- gfton service in the Harvey Funeral home June 4 for William Naylor, former Sunshine Coast zone commander and member of Roberts Creek Legion branch.

Essay prizewinners After considerable reading and re-reading by members of Elphinstone school teaching staff and Coast News judges, winners of the Coast News essay competition have been selected. They are: Velma Stanley, Grade 12, first. Stan Stubbs, Grade 11, second. Connie Francis, Grade 8, third. The first prize is a $25 cash award, second prize $15 and third prize $10. Pictures of the winners will be found on page seven of this issue, along with their essays. Tax date under lire A method of making municipal tax payments easier for the public was suggested at Tuesday night's meeting of Gibsons council by Chairman Wes Hodgson. Discussion was left for another meeting. Complaints have been noted that the 30 days now allowable under the early July date on which tax penalties start is not sufficient. The tax penalty date used to be Sept. 15. A notice of motion for the framing of a sewer bylaw was presented. This motion will come up at the next meeting for discussion. Council is also looking into a possible increase in the charge to be made for water connec- tons. The feeling is that present costs are on the low side. A letter from the regional board of directors asking council to offer its views on an application by 74 people seeking water in the North Rd-Reid Rd. section, which had been received by the regional board, was tabled for further consideration. Comment recalled that Martin Dayton, who is engineering Gibsons water expansion, has advised council not to add any more, consumers, living outside the municipal area. The problem of access to harbor installations arising from extension of Walter Hendrickson's Gibsons Boat Works float has been settled by agreeing that so long as there is 75 ft. clearance between dock floats and the Boat Works float, there will be no complaints. Premier Bennett's office wrote acknowledging receipt of Gibsons council letter asking that the new ferry on the Langdah run be named the Queen of G'b- sons. Hon. Mrs. I. Dawson replied to her letter from council that she was working on it. Coast News, June 8, 1967. Phone 886-2622 P.O. Box 460, Gibsons. B.C. Published Thursdays at Gibsons, B.C.

A much needed report The Bullock report on the West Howe Sound water study is one which should not be put on the shelf for future reading. It is a clearly < written document, accompanied by ample maps, charts and1 statistical data. The idea it presents, that of forming an area water organization is sound advice and there should be some effort made, at't not too distant a date to get action under way. It will not be an easy matter to get all thie llocal water boards to see their way clear to get into positive action quickly. Menu' bers of these local water systems should be the ones to press for' actiofn in the event their officials are not responsive without pressure. The territory to be covered by the recommended area water organization is from north of Langdale to the Gower Point region. It will use Langdale Creek as its main water supply, according to the report. The advantage that would effect Gibsons would be that of'it turned its water supply over to the water board it would not have the responsibility of expanding its water sources later on. This would be a matter for the area water board to tackle. All that Gibsons municipality would do would be to purchase its water supply from the area board which would have control over the main distribution. One could editorialize on the report at much greater length but it should suffice to say that now the West Howe Sound area has a comprehensive report on which to base judgment. If nothing comes of it officialdom of the West Howe Sound area will have itself only to blame. Was it necessary? Rumors unless checked can prove embarrassing. This happened in the case of a Gibsons area woman who through well-tin- tentioned telephone conversations which left doubt in her mind about her husband's safety suffered an unnecessary anguish. As well as the phone conversations there was considerable talk following the recent power blackout. According to one version it had a man blown, as the result'of blasting, clean across the top of a pole bearing three high tension wires ��� and the story continued ��� he was sizzling on the wires until power was cut off. Not nice, is it? However it turned out there was no man involved, just a protective blasting blanket. The spreading of such gossip without confirmation is deplorable. One can only hope it wijil not occur again. To have solicitous enquirers! wanting to know if there is anything they can do when you haven't the foggiest notion of what they mean, is disquieting. It is better to refrain from spreading information of any kind until you have confirmation of what you have heard. Civilization marches on * CBC's Northern Regional Radio Service, known among Eskimos and Indians as The Big Voice, is ensuring that thousands of Arctic and sub-Arctic residents who do not read English or French, learn about procedures to be followed in the forthcoming Northwest Territories council elections. "In co-operation with: the chief electoral officer and the NWT government, the Northern-/ Service is broadcasting election information in the three major dialects of Eskimo and in the five main Indian languages of the Northwest Territories ��� Chipewyan, Cree, Dogrib, Kutchin, and Slave." There will be novelty in the early stages of such broadcasts but wi'tho/ut doubt time alone w)ill tell whether the nuances within the Eskimo and Indian languages will be able to cope with the political gobbledegook which will eventually reach the outer areas. We pity the translators who wlill have the job of making the political jargon intelligible to those who are supposed to be listening. Minute message Of those who profess to have faith in God there are some who show a lack of good common sense. Irreligious people cannot help wondering if religious faith tends to make a person fanatical. But it may be said "quite conclusively that faith in God does not cause anyone to become a fanatic. In spite of the way some people speak and act, religious faith is not opposed to common sense; it does not separate us from our reason or discourage the use of reason. To quote from a noted writer, "Faith is never opposed to reason in the New Testament." No one need be skeptical of religious faith. It is a blessing that is greatly needed today. When one makes the contribution to society of a spiritually dedicated life, he sends healing currents through all the world. A young college student, well endowed with common sense, was persuaded to visit an art gallery where a great picture was being exhibited. After studying the masterpiece from every angle, the young man turned to go. One of the attendants, who had watched his interest and eagerness, said to him: "It is a great picture." "Yes," said the lad, "it is a great picture.'' Then he went back and looked again upon the face on the canvas and softly said these words: 'O Jesus of Nazareth, thou Saviour of the world; if there is any thing I can do to help you in the great work you are doing in the world, count on me! Count on me!" We may have a reputation for good common sense. But have we also religious faith. Can Jesus count on us? ���Rev. W. M. Cameron, United Church of Canada. COPYRIGHT APPLIED FOR We welcome written ques-. tions on legal points from readers. If possible they will be answered in this column. Letters must be brief, signed and your ad-' dress shown. Send to "Point of Law," c/o this newspaper. In response to past enquiries concerning the collection of debts after judgment, we have dealt with the garnishing of wages or other funds and the seizing of assets. This article will deal with the judgment summons which should only be used as a last resort, that-is, if the other two methods are not suitable, or have been ex- haused. The garr.ishing order is a court order directed to an employer or other person said to owe the debtor a sum of money ordering him not to pay same to the debtor but to pay the funds into court to await a later disposition -���usually to the creditor. A warrant of execution is a court order', directed to the sheriff to seize the debtor's goods and sell same to satisfy the debts. The judgment summons is also a court order���this is directed to the debtor ordering him to appear before a judge at a certain date, and to bring all POINT OF LAW his business books and papers; to subject himself to examination concerning his means and expectation of retiring the in-. debtedness. Should this be ignored by the debtor an order committing the debtor to prison for ten days for contempt of court may be obtained. After the debtor has served his time in prison a new judgment summons may be issued with the costs of the imprisonment being added on. If the debtor appears to the judgment summons, he will be cross-examined by the creditor's lawyer who will go into all aspects of the debtor's affairs such as his source of income, where he banks, income tax returns, what assets he owns, .who owes him money, what dependants he has, his debts and generally how the debt can be paid. At the completion of this- cross-examination, the judge may decide the debtor is not in a position to make any payments and dismiss the hearing or adjourn to a later date. Alternatively, and depending what assets and income the examination discloses, the judge may order, the entire debt or a portion of it paid iminediately or he may order monthly payments of any suitable amount. The usual order is for small monthly payments and should these not be made the creditor's Sechelt's water picture FROM THE BULLOCK REPORT ON WATER The Sechelt Water Company's present intake which is fed by a catchment area of 25.4 square miles,; is situated at the top of a series of falls and is at.an elevation of about 480 feet. The dam consists of a timber crib wedged against the large outcrops of bedrock which project above the stream at this point. It seems to be adequate for its present purpose but may be subject to considerable leakage in very dry weather and it should be replaced by a properly founded concrete structure if this source is to be developed. The site is admirably suited to .a small intake with a height at about eight feet and a crest length of about 60 feet. A good location for a high capacity spillway exists on the east side of the stream bed. Upstream the creek passes through a narrow gorge and seems to have a solid bedrock. This feature seems to have protected the intake from the impact of large rocks and bolts pf timber at times of flood. The dam would have little storage capacity even though the valley opens out somewhat above the gorge. The existing pipeline from this intake follows a tortuous path along the steep western side of the valley, and is supported at intervals with rather precariously sited trustle structures. The valley side appear to be subject to landslides. The route is the most direct to Sechelt and is very good, apart from the valley section. Improvements to the alignment may be difficult and expensive but would have to be undertaker;, since a failure of a trestle or a landslide could interrupt the supply for an extended period, well beyond the capacity of the storage facilities. The eastern side of the valley appears to be a Mttle less difficult, but as the length of pipeline in the valley would be increased there seems to be little advantage in taking this route. A dam site with more storage would be an advantage and the valley has been studied with this in mind. The best site appears to be at the outlet at the largest lake on the main stream. This has a relatively narrow neck and a modest structure could raise the level of the lake some ten to 15 feet, providing storage of 150,000,000 gallons. This site has the disadvantage that it is some ten miles from the intake and large losses could be expected in this dis-. tance if it were merely used to regulate flow. Alternatively a pipeline between the two could be constructed but this would be very costly. The conclusion arrived at in the report reveals that Chapman Creek has a large catchment but very little holding power, and diversion of water for water supply purposes is not recommended beyond 1,000,- 000 gallons per day, based on present records of the stream flow unless extensive storage is involved. Such storage may be obtained by the provision of. a control dam at the small lake at the upper end of the catchment, but the cost would not be warranted unless the full flow then available was utilized. It is recommended that the communities which now obtain .. a supply from Chapman Creek, < should take steps to install a permanent intake and recording guage at the present Intake site, so that adequate and accurate records of the stream flow at this point are available when further development of their present supplies becomes necessary.

If the debtor ignores this, he will be committed to prison. If he appears, the judge will question him and look at documents or adjourn so 7that witnesses may be called, etc., in order to satisfy himself that the order was disobeyed, whereupon he may again commit the debtor to prison. If it transpires that the debtor was unable to pay through a decrease in his income caus ed, for example, by loss of-em- ployment, he will not be ordered imprisoned, and the matter may be dismissed ��� to await a fresh judgment summons. This dreary proceedure can go on indefinitely. The. law is ori thetside^pfj thCi debtor who can make use of all sorts of delaying and ������ evasive tactics but a creditor can usually collect if he is persistent and is walling to. pay' his own lawyer. All legal costs are added on to the indebtedness. The moral is not to extend credit to persons not regularly employed for wages. Garnishing wages remains the best method of collection. N.

Give ^burselp a LUCKY BREAK ready insufficient at the time of incorporation and the new council took ^ steps to develop the springs on Lot A, DL 686, now known as the municipal springs. These springs can supply 150,000 gallons a day or more and are still a valuable sourpe supply. From 1931 to 1941 the supply was adequate although there were pressure difficulties and numerous complaints from the residents of DL 685 which had hot y(_t; been, included in the municipality. By 1941 however, it was obvious that the - new growth at the upper end of the village/would have to be serviced. T^ the 7 hew school which had developed following consolidation of Roberts Creek with the :Howe Sound school board. To Robert Burns, who was village clerk at'the time, it was clear that a booster system from the new reservoir on School Road would /be inadequate and it would be necessary to recommend development of the springs on DL 1313. These springs, then known as the Co-op springs, were already being used by the Co-operative cannery on Henry Road. Burns, who was also on the cannery board, arranged a new system from the springs, via the cannery pipe, with an hydraulic gradient designed so that there would be an adequate supply to the upper areas, water for fire-fighting at the school and reliable delivery of about 90,000 gallons a day to the School Road tank. Such an arrangement would save on pumping from the municipal springs. This was a large undertaking for a young municipality and it was not until the summer of 1945 that the new works became fully operative. ��� About the same time, - the municipality extended its boundary to include DL 685 and this partly accounts for the sudden large increase in population in the period 1914 to 1951. Growth was very rapid and the system had to be expanded to keep pace. New springs on DL 1313 were tapped and Inge Creek piped to the Reid Road reservoir in 1949. At about the same time the water license of the Cannery was taken over and other licenses extended so that the authorized diversion from the municipal springs, Co-op springs and Inge Creek totalled 220,000 gallons a day by 1950. In 1952 the diversion of 200,- 000 gallons a day from Chaster" (Payne)' Creek was proposed, and acquired and. a provisional water license obtained. Doubts about the actual water ��� available ir; dry weather held up the exploitation of this source and apart from the relaying of mains no further progress was made, until 1965 when the Chaster Creek flow was temporarily diverted to the Reid Road reservoir. By this time water shortage in Gibsons was chronic and extension of the system in the unincorporated surrounding areas had to be halted. Since the village had through the years made a practice of supplying water to the consumers in the unincorporated areas, separate water supply organizations in Gibsons Heights and the North Road areas did not develop and new consumers ���looked.to the village for their water supply. The suspension of new services brought formal complaints and an inquiry which was decided in favor of the consumer. This incident is likely to mean a further increase in the number of consumers supplied from the municipal system and the drilling and proving of a further well ��� on Lot A DL 685 is timely. The new well put down in Coast News, June 8, 1967. 3 1966 has been pump tested and indicates a reliable yield of 360,- 000 gallons a day. This will be a very valuable addition to the existing water supply facilities of Gibsons especially in dry weather when the flow in Inge and Caster Creeks is depleted.

ROBERTS CREEK By MADGE NEWMAN Dave Marshall is back from Vancouver where he has been recuperating since undergoing surgery at St. Mary's Hospital. Mr. and Mrs. M. V. Wynard, of Medford, Wis., are the guests of Mr. and Mrs. R. L. Black for two weeks. Mrs. M. W. MacKenzie, of Mica Creek, spent last week with her sister, Mrs. L. B. Mac- Donald. Geoffrey Harestad has returned from Vancouver where he spent a week in St. Paul's Hospital. Guests at the Crocker home this week are Mrs. Crocker's niece, Mrs. James B. Wright, and daughters Carey and Melissa, of Portland. By JACK DAVIS. M.P. It is too bad we are having to pull our troops out of the Middle East. Ten years ago they spearheaded the establishment of a United Nations peacekeeping force there. They, more than any other contingent, helped to head off the Suez crisis. Now, with our Canadian Anmy units back home again, the Arabs and the Israelis are free to go to war with each other once more. Having to get out at short notice is humiliating enough; But Egypt's president Nasser has hurt us in another way. He has tried to make Canada look like a pawn of the major powers ��� a satellite of the United States and, to a lesser extent, of Great Britain. This hurts our credibility as a keeper of the peace. True, our UN contingents are still in Cyprus and the Kashmir. But there are other areasin which Canada may suddenly be called upon to do a policeman's job. So the charges made by Presiden/ Nasser must be played d_<��#n. They must be played down, not only because they are untrue, but also because they make Canada look as if we always side with the United States. Our acceptibility ; depends, to a large extent, on our independence. Certainly it depends or the extent to which we app**ar to have a foreign policy of our own. We cannot always be at the . beck and call of the United States. Instead we must foe a middle power whose inter__rts are similar to those of other countries who wish to make their own way in the world. Quiet diplomacy is all very well. But quiet diplomacy often makes Canada look like an agent for Washington or London. So we must speak out loudly. We must speak out even if it means being critical of the United States. Being critical of the U.S. all of the time, is silly. Washington is not always wrong. Nor does : TURTLES IN B.C. Few people realize that the turtle, usually associated with more southern climates, can be found in British Columbia. He can be found in the Okanagan and Thompson Valleys, Vancouver Island, and Pender Harbour on the mainland coast of B.C. The British Columbian turtle is called the Western Painted Turtle, and can be distinguished by the brilliant colors on the underpart. Coast-Capilano Constituency a dog-ih-the--h)anger approach pay off. To even a casual observer it makes us look as if we are always being run by Washington even though this is 7 against our wilL: - , ; So much for appearances. But what, are Twe to'. do; about our peacekeeping operations in the future? Until the; United Nations can agree on a permanent force of its own, Canada will always have to move in at short notice. We -will have to; put up with unreasonable demands from local potentates/ And we will have to pay dearly in terms of men and money for time ��� time in which tempers can cool and solutions,; can foe found to solve the problem which caused fighting to break out Jn the first plaee. .;..���:. Canada's intervention on the Gaza strip gave us a ten year respite in the Middle East. It is too bad that we had to get out in a hurry. But at least we have learned one lesson.. We have learned that a; blueprint for a successful intervention by the United Nations must be drawn up in advance.

The one thing most important, - however is to build and strengthen my democratic government. This means that government rests in the hands of the people themselves. It is a government of their . own choice, and it exists for the purpose of carrying but the wishes of the people. ' The ideal democracy is: however more than a system of government. It is a way of life. In order to make democracy completely successful, the individual citizen must be prepared to recognize and strive to practice in his daily life the main ideals of democracy ��� equality and justice for others, regardless of their race, color BOOOOOOOOOOOO. .... seeing ghosts? Find TELEVISION SERVICING fast in the YELLOW PAGES. Where your fingers do the walking. or religion. I think that democracy recognizes that every man, woman and child have dignity and worth, not only to themselves but to their community and country as well. The emphasis which is placed on the worth and welfare of the individual is a major characteristic of a democratic society. I have said that democracy is government by the people themselves. It is obvious that all Canadians are not in a position to devote their time and attention to public affairs. Factories and shops must produce and sell goods, services must be provided in order that the daily life of the nation may be maintained. What I am trying to say is that the vast majority of the people are concerned with earning a living by working at jobs, trades or professions or by performing the hundreds of services necessary to a community, but at the same time these same people must realize that however employed, their voices must be heard if democracy is to work. It is essential that young people of today take an intelligent interest in our democratic government. We cannot form an honest opinion about our government unless we know and understand _t. Forming an opinion, I think begins through discussion with various people and by watching television and listening to the radio. It doesn't matter whether you are for the present government or against it, an opinion has been formed on such matters and that is. what is important. It is an individual opinion and does not necessarily, reflect the thinking of the i general public. Every Canadian should be aware of the. basic rights or freedoms; such as freedom of press, religion, movement, etc., but even more aware of the responsibilities that must be,accepted if democracy is to thrive and flourish. One of the" basic responsibilities is the. respect for other's rights. Just as we enjoy the right we fought for, so must we constantly regard the rights of others. It must be remembered that the responsible person exercises moderation in asserting his rights and has every reason to assume that others will do . likewise. For example, if we expect to enjoy -the right to worship in the church of our choice and to practice our religious beliefs without fear, , then we must be prepared to. recognize and defend the freedom of others to differ from us in their religious beliefs and practices. If we place the proper emphasis upon the dignity and worth of the individual then we must grant to all others the same rights as we hope to enjoy ourselves ��� regardless of their race, color or creed. I think it is important that we protect everyone from injustice if we want assurance that our own rights will ibe respected and preserved. However if we want justice then we must understand and respect the laws of today. Freedom of speech has led to the passing of laws that protect us, therefore, it becomes our responsibility to respect the laws. I don't think this .means we should accept any law without question, but we must abide by it until it is changed. I stated earlier in my essay that democracy was more than a form of government, but more important a way of life. Then we as Canadans, must be prepared to contribute within the limits of our skill, training, experience and interests, to the welfare of others. Members of voluntary ser- Printing IS Our Business vices lend strength and meaning to our democratic way of life. The nature of democracy requires that we have continued interest in the welfare of others. My concern for what is best for myself leads me to consider what is best for all Canadians. Ideal democracy has never been achieved in any country but this must not prevent the people in such a democratic state as Canada from constantly striving the ideal. Second By STAN STUBBS First let us discover the meaning of the two controversial words in the title, responsibilities, and Canadian. Responsibilities are defined generally as the ability to meet an obligation or actions that which one is accountable for. A Canadian is simply referred to as a native or inhabitant of the geological and political division of the world called Canada. Now that I've tried to explain the meanings of the two vague words, let us push on into the real purpose of this essay. My responsibilities, ever since I was born, have been very restricted, and they will continue to be so, until I attain the age of 21 years. With the restrictions on responsibilities, comes a restriction on privileges. My parents were fully responsible, and still are somewhat so, until I reached the age of six, or the beginning of school. I was then responsible and expected to attend and do my best at school. I still have that responsibility, and will continue to have it until I finish school, pre and post graduate. As I continue through life I will always !be gaining more and more responsibilities until a peak is reached and from there on some responsibilities are lost to younger and more capable men. At the age of about eight, I received my first job in public. Previous to this I had my responsibilities or duties at home. My "first job was delivering papers for someone else. A year or so later, the responsibility of having my own route was then endowed upon me. As previously stated, the more responsibilities that I gained, the more privileges I received, and vice versa. As I became older, my real responsibility as a Canadian became more apparent. I learned more, about the laws, civil and moral, of a community. I also learned more of citizenship. As a teenage driver, I feel that I have a responsibility in keeping my name and the names of others on the road, off the statistic sheets. I have a responsibility also in proving that young drivers can be safe and good drivers. When 1 become legally old enough to vote, I must take an active part in local, provincial, as well as federal elections. I should have my own ideas, and I should voice them, not be a vegetable as I flow along with the crowd. Individuality and nonconformity can be good if not carried to extremes. I should study the platforms and theories of the different political parties when I am voting. It is mine and all other Canadian's responsibility to try to attain a high standing in society, both socially and economically. We should plan our future as well as our present. We should not grow too accustomed to having social services, etc, to fall on in case of an emergency. vWe should plan our lives so as to be able to take care of ourselves in old age. A person should.be independent without being an isolationist. I think it is every Canadian's responsibility to fight for what he believes in. We are supposed to stand for democracy. Also, we are supposed to be a prime example of capitalism. If we are to be examples then, let us be good ones, so others will be proud to be Canadians and follow in our footsteps. It matters not, whether we are in peace time or in time of war, we must always strive to attain our best in everything. This is the key to nationalism. munity the best possible place to live dn. Where is my community? My community is at the. Resi dential school and at home in Stuart Island. What "can I do to make these places better to live in? First in school everyone recognizes the fact that much more can be accomplished when there is a fine spirit of co-operation, good-will and willingness to work for the common cause. The same thing is true of a school: If there is a spirit of friendliness, co-operation and enthusiastic loyalty among the students and a mutual understanding between teachers and pupils, the school will be outstanding. The students make the school and the school can be as good as the actions and attitudes of boys and' girls of whom it is comprised. It is a much better plan to leave behind you a record of honor and fair play with pupils, teachers and principals. 7 Responsibility. at home on Stuart Island is to help other families who need my help and to make my home the best to live: in. In the intimacy- of our family .we learn the first lesson of the complex art of living and of getting along with oth- ers: One way to help is to acquire a better understanding of the home, its privileges and responsibilites.

Then along came a letter from Mrs. I.

FISH NEWS Issued by department of fisheries for the week ending May 28: The lower Sunshine Coast reports Chinook and coho fishing is spotty but rates the overall picture as fair.
