SERVING THE GROWING SUNSHINE COAST Volume 21 Number 10, March 7, 1968. 10c per copy 2 letters on college seite Editor: It has been suggested apparently because of the reported remarks of two trustees, that all the trustees of this school district might not be wholly and unanimously behind the Community College. The two trustees, Mr. Leo Johnson and Mr. Norman Hough, were quoted as saying that the campaign for the college would not succeed. The inference was that they did not support the college. Mr. Johnson and Mr. Hough have since stated emphatically that they fully endorse the col- \". lege campaign and that their remarks were only intended to convey their fear that the unavoidably brief period during which the campaign could be held, would make it difficult to convey to the voters all the information about the college which they should have in order to vote intelligently on the issue on March 7. In order to clarify the matter once and for all, a motion was passed at a meeting held on Feb. 29, at which all seven trustees were present and voted. The motion was proposed by Mr. Malcolm and seconded by Mr. Leo Johnson and reads as follows: \"Be it resolved that we, the seven trustees forming the Board of School Trustees of School District No. 46 (Sechelt) reaffirm our unanimous support of; the Community College, both as a board and as individual \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd trustees..\";...

The school board has used this hoax long enough to justify their excessive spending. Y This misleading statistic is arrived at by dividing the total assessed value of the school district (by the number of pupils attending school. The greater the number of pensioners and retired people, the smaller the number of children, therefore the richer the district, or so say our school board. At the meeting held at Sechelt on Tuesday it was stated that the Sechelt school district was three times as rich as the West Vancouver school district. The panel later did not and could not deny that foy using this same formula it was costing three times as much to educate a student in the Sechelt district as it was costing to educate a student in the West Vancouver school district. May I point out to you that the same will apply to the cost of the proposed college, provided the same percentage of students attend from each school district. Now let us suppose that due to closer proximity five times as many students, percentagewise, from West Van attend than from the Sechelt school district. We will then be paying 15 times as much per student as West Vancouver. BE WISE, VOTE NO. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffdL. A. Fraser. 6 ft.

Some might think the end of the whale is where the fin sticks up from the water. At that point there is still something like eight or nine feet more to be considered. The $5,000 offered by the aquarium officials for its capture will be divided it is understood between 10 members of the Reid and Cameron families. Male members of those families were the ones who trapped the monster. Apparently the whale likes music. It has been attracted by girls playing their flutes and has surfaced to enjoy the proceeding^. It appears from stories going the rounds at Pender Harbour that on the afternoon the whales were sighted in the area, it was also the day for the celebration of the wedding anniversary of one member of th__ crew that trapped the whale. However the lure of the chase was so strong the wedding anniversary was forgotten, for the time being. It has been celebrated since. Coast News, March 7, 1968. Serving the Mt.

A good many people are finding it difficult to make up their minds about what to do with their vote on the proposed regional college. There are also a good many apathetic people who know what they intend to do but will refrain from voting. Between doubtful voters and those who will refrain from voting lies a group of positive people who have been hard at work convincing others that the area requires the college. It will be through the efforts of this group that a positive vote can be realized. There is an interest in the college because close to 200 persons attended meetings in Gibsons and Sechelt to hear what it was all about. A few, very lew were definite in their opposition but the majority outside of the questioners were generally seeking information. However when the vote is taken on Thursday there will be \ufffd\ufffd\ufffda definite answer. In casting one's vote it should be remembered thai while there are over-crowded institutions with programs that go beyond the secondary school level, there is definitely room for a college that will come between present secondary education and that of higher learning in universities, vocational and technical schools. Most people are in favor of a regional college on the Nortih Shore. There is no argument about that. But why, some people ask, should our school district become embroiled in it? The answer is not too difficult if one thinks logically. The North Shore Regional College Study by Tantalus Research Limited, the basis for the setting up of this college, presents a condition which applies to the North Shore area and in a lesser degree to our school district. Problems that have been found difficult to overcome on the North Shore apply to students in this school district. There should be institutions of learning that fall between the top grade of secondary schooling and universities, a type of education that would prepare students for the more serious business of university education. If university administrators were free to speak on the subject they would most likely claim that regional colleges should have been established years ago in order that the load of university dropouts could be handled at a lower level instead of cramming universities with people who may drop-out after a couple of years. On this basis there is something to be said in favor of regional eolleges. In the long run it will be cheaper to have smaller universities with better chances of offering education to those who really want it and use regional colleges as stepping stones towards university education. The phasing in of regional colleges has advantages. It allows the public an opportunity to see what a regional college can offer before that issue becomes one which requires considerable sums of money for buildings, campuses and staff. Considerable misunderstanding can be cleared away* when students become involved and there is what had been described as an existing college population. On this basis the Coast News would prefer to see an affirmative vote in this area. There are some people who think of their taxation dollars seriously but they should also give the same serious thought to the educational facilities for the present and coming generations. The biological urge rarely gives consideration to the future. Nevertheless the production of that urge deserves consideration. Some $701,355 was spent in the consumption of liquor beverages on the Sunshine Coast in the fiscal year ending March 31, 1967. The price of one bottle of hard liquor will more than pay the bill when it comes time to pay taxes. Point of law On the problem of prescription drugs, for the elderly Hon. Mrs. Isabel Dawson in her legislature address on Feb. 23 said all social welfare cases are given a health service card. There are approximately 22,- . 000 elderly citizens over 67 years of age, and 4,974 between the ages of 65. to 67, a total of almost. 27,000 who now hold health service cards. These cards also include medical, dental, and optical services without charge. This service also includes children in care, unemployable people and old age supplementary assistance. This card entitles the party to all services. They have the right of choice of their doctor who may also send them to a specialist if this is required. The doctor gives them a prescription and the party take the prescription to a drug store themselves, and the bill is picked up by the government, when such is sent in by drug store for payment. The new benefit list of drugs was compiled by an independent group of doctors and on the basis of using drugs of common names rather than brand names. This use of common name drugs avoided purchasing name brand drugs with a savings in cost. In the area of elderly citizens we opened our new Powell River 40 unit Olive DeVaud Boarding Home, the grant from this government being $94,500. We now have a very fine complex started in Powell River. In 1958, we built our first self- contained non-profit units, and since then, . have costructed more of them. The Sushine Coast Senior Citizens Housing society at Sechelt is now hard at work planning for low-cost, non-profit, self-contained housing unit, and the Gibsons Legion is working on their plans for the same type of project in their area. Both of these, no doubt, will be coming up for approval within the next few months. One of the needs of the elderly citizens is lower cost ambu- \\ lance service. However, I know the problem is receiving active consideration by this government. Three Regional Districts have them in their letters patent and I suggest that other districts might do well to look into this need and explore this method of providing ambulance service. It has been my belief that there is a need for some sort of personal counsellor service for the elderly. Someone, if possible, from their own ranks who could attend a seminar of a few days, and be given information that he or she could take back to his or her area. Many of the questions the elderly ask could be answered by someone from their own group or groups, if they had sufficient knowledge and information, hope will be in the near future, This program will go forward this year and in the welfare estimates there is provision for a consultant and I am also pleased the minister of social welfare is at present in search of such a person. To carry this counsellor service through, an elderly citizens seminar will be held next fall, most likely in October. It is our intention to have about 25 or 30 of these counsellors to start with - and as the setup proves it worth, to increase the number to possibly 50. It is something quite new and I am all. for starting it in a small way and building it up as it proves itself and I feel sure this will prove to be the case. Mrs. Dawson said government is recommending an urban bus pass program to meet the needs of certain low. income groups of senior citizens in urban areas. The costs to Hydro will be met from the $1,000,000 urban transportation assistance provided in the 1968- 69 budget. The passes are to be issued by the division of the aged on behalf of Hydro. They are to be of durable construction and contain a photograph of the holder. The pass shall be available on application to all senior citizens who are in receipt of supplementary allowance at a charge of $5 for a six-month period, and applications may be made after March 31. The pass shall be good for urban transportation six days a week from 9:30 a.m. to 3 p.m.; from 7 p.m. to close of service, and all day Sunday. During the past few months considerable work has been done on secondary or side roads. Re-construction and black-topping has been done on a number of them and some $618,000 has been budgeted for Mackenzie for the next fiscal year. Field work on the proposed Gibsons by-pass, with design work to be completed later in the year, is progressing well. It will be a boon totraffic, es- pecialy driving from Powell River to the Langdale Terminal In looking into the future one can easily foresee a seaway of ferries, through its length, and I shall continue to press for these, for this is our main mode of travel. We are indeed pleased to see that much activity and construction of terminals on our ferry links, including the Horseshoe* Bay Terminal, Langdale and Earle's Cove, where acquisition of our Sunshine Coast Queen, which will go into service towards the end of March or early April, means a total expenditure of over 5^4 million dollars. The Powell River-Comox ferry has proved popular not only for tourists, but for the local residents; the people in the Powell River area are looking forward to the day, which they when a more adequate ferry terminal will be constructed and a larger ferry carry the ever-increasing traffic to Vancouver Island. Powell River is really going places. Last July, number ten paper machine, a part of a $105,000,000 construction went into service, and with the capacity of 500 tons a day, from aidsoiiglit this one machine, our total capacity in the mill is now 630,- 000 tons a year at full production. Our Kraft Mill, with its first cook being done this past weekend, and with its two digesters for sawdust and chips, is expected to go into production around March 1st, and will produce 525 tons per day. L;ke other areas, parks are important to us. Since 1965, $402,100 has been spent on parks in our area, of which some $394,000 was spent on acquiring property, which will be developed in the years ahead Smuggler's Cove; 150 acres Crowston property near Sechelt, and the 40 acres in the Pender Harbor area and also Myrtle Rock at Powell River, which has been classified as a Class. C;Park,,The important thing was* to\" acquire ?the land while it coirid ^stilT be\"* had. Skookemchuck Rapids could be one of our greatest tourist attractions. However, T feel sure that development of a road, or at least an access to this, is not too far distant at this time. Around May 15, Powell River will see the opening of its new 26-bed Extended Care Hospital, and also space for our new emergency department, kitchen extension, medical records and also facilities for occupational therapy. Total cost is estimated to be $1,145,669. St. Mary's Hospital at Sechelt is also waiting for final approval which could be given any day now, for a 22 extended care bed extension, and 13 acute care beds.

Since that time modern medicine has achieved one of its most dramatic successes. The story can be told in statistics: between. 1950 and 1962, the death rate from hypertension dropped more than 50% among middle-aged Canadian men and women, ages 45 - 64. The secret weapon in the successful counter-attack on hypertension is really an arsenal: several potent new drugs which singly, or in various combinations, can bring down high blood pressure and keep it down \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd if the disease is detected and treated early. Because high blood pressure can encroach and advance without producing any warning symptoms, the importance of regular physical examinations cannot be stressed too often. Regular physical examination will bring high blood pressure to light. The new pressure-lowering drugs are only a part \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd albeit the major part\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd of the attack on hypertension. Other measures to control blood pressure include: Reduction of excess weight, since overweight aggravates the condition and the risk of heart attack; Cessation of cigarette smoking, 'because smoking just one or two cigarettes brings an immediate rise in blood pressure, also smoking is an added coronary risk factor. In suitable cases, reduction of salt intake in the diet, if the doctor prescribes it. You and your doctor can work together now to control . your blood pressure and reduce your risk of having a heart attack. Meanwhile, scientists all over the world are\" working to discover and eliminate the underlying causes of all cardio-vascular disease. Until they do, the B.C. Heart Foundation urges, give yourself a head start in heading off heart attacks. Further information and free booklets on this subject may be obtained from the B.C. Heart Foundation. Plan fashion show The monthly meeting of Port Mellon's auxiliary to St. Mary's hospital at the home of Mrs. Lome Wolverton welcomed four new members, Mrs. C. Johnson, Mrs. S. Moore, Mrs. G.

The Institutes' colors of green, white and yellow were used on the tables in snowdrops, Crocus and fern and on the icing of the birthday cake, which was cut by Mrs. W. Hodgson, president. The evening was spent in playing of games, contests, charades and bingo. A presentation was made to Mrs. J. Corlett for her faithful work during the past year and an officers pin to Mrs. J. Warwick on the completion of her term as a director. Letters fo edifor Editor: I see T rated the front page of your good paper last week re our lot in Headlands. That was a most stupid remark made by a member of our council. Surely he can tell the difference between a lot not cleared and a mess of machinery, etc. We did clear that lot 2-3 years ago then some idiot dug a deep ditch and bulldozed a heap of mud and debri in front not much incentive to go on clearing. One lady on the street asked if I would like to borrow a pair of boxing gloves. That might have been a good idea it I knew which council member made that remark but I guess he vvas not man enough to sign his name. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd Lily Hammond.

It rather seems as though Gibsons.and the Sechelt Peninsula may be subsidizing the north coast, West Vancouver, North Vancouver, Horseshoe Bay, etc. The hours of classes are to be from '4:30 p.m. to, 10:30 p.m. I understand. Any of the North Shore residents can live at home and go back and forth by car; our young people would not be able to do this and I fear that boarding facilities might not be easy to find in West or North Vancouver and at 11 p.m. travelling back to Vancouver is not too easy. I think our taxes would be better spent on having a grade 13 at Elphinstone High School. If necessary at night. It would be easier of access and the pupils able to live at home. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffdM.

The Gallery was one of 48 Arts Council projects in B.C. to qualify for a grant from the Centennial Cultural fund. This is an annual affair and grants must be re-applied for. The Gallery committee would welcome suggestions and ideas as to how to use this grant to the best advantage of the maximum number of residents of this area. With their representative on the gallery committee the Indian people of Sechelt are now wondering how best to use part of the grant, to foster interest in traditional crafts, or branch out into, something new. Ceramics enthusiasts are interested in a kiln and artists seek a workshop. CARPET WINNER Mr. Ervin Benner was the winner of the Gallery carpet rafifle.

D. R. McLean HON. ISABEL DAWSON Here we are once again, having completed the fifth full week of the 2nd Session of the 28th Parliament of British Columbia, and these sessions continue to be quite lively, for now the budget debate is completed, we are dealing with the estimates of the various departments. Last week we saw completion of the premier's office, the department of finance, and the department of industrial development, trade, and commerce. Numerous bills have, come up for second reading, including Bill No. 22, the Act Respecting Workmen's Compensation, which now goes to the standing committee on labor, of which I am a member. I notice we have two meetings this week on this, Wednesday and Thursday morning. * * * Today, March 4th, I chair a meeting of senior officials in the division of aged and the welfare department to finalize arrangements for B.C. Hydro bus passes and to start plans on the elderly citizens counsellors project. A standing committee that is receiving considerable publicity is the social welfare and educational committee, of which I am also a member. We are studying the affects of marijuana and lysergic drugs, particularly on young people. Last Monday, we listened to, and questioned, Mr. Hoskins and Mr. Maurice Young, of the Narcotic Addiction foundation, and on Thursday and Friday, we had Superintendent Price and two of his drug squad from Vancouver. A ' tremqndous amount of data is being compiled, which will prove of great importance and value to all of us in B.C. * * * Two items of interest to the Sunshine Coast is that from June 21 to September 2, the Langdale Queen will supplement the Sunshine Coast Queen and with these two ships on the run, we will have the carrying capacity equivalent to almost three ferries, of the size that have been operating on the run for the past few years. This hourly service will go into effect also for these busy periods where such service is indicated. Also, I am pleased that in addition to the $800 cultural grant to the Powell River area, $194.50 has been approved to the Powell River and District Music Festival for the fiscal year, 1967\/68. This is based on statistics sent to us by the B.C. Music Festival Association and is based on the formula of $100 per Festival plus 50 cents per entry in the Festival. It was also my privilege, Friday, to unveil a plaque in the rotunda of the legislative chambers on behalf of the Provincial Council of Women and the B.C. Centennial committee. This was in commemoration of women obtaining their franchise. * * * Last week in the legislature, we were treated to bright golden daffodils placed on every members desk by the Greater Vancouver Visitors & Convention Bureau. They used February 29 as the symbol of British Columbia's Leap into Spring typifying that spring comes earlier to all those fortunate enough to live in British Columbia. The weather co-operated beautifully and Thursday, February 29, saw Victoria bathed in sunshine and smiles. It had been my intention to Journey to Dawson Creek over the weekend and take a look at their new type of school construction, but due to the fact I came down with a real bout of flu, I had to postpone this trip to a later date. I regretted having to change the plans, but under the circumstances, it would have been foolish to have gone.

Coast News, March 7, 1968. 5 Fire assessment problem settled 35 attend At a meeting of the Council of the Sechelt Band, attended by George F. Gallagher, of the Indian Affairs Branch, Vancouver, Monday night, the question of the renewal of an agreement between the local fire district and the Band for fire protection of the Reserve village was discussed. Contention between the fire district and the people of the Indian village, arose last year when a second $250 was asked. This was turned down by the band, contending it had already paid the regular annual amount. Notice was later given that an assessment of $500 for the year would be made. Exception to this notice was taken on two counts by the Band, first, the term assessment implied a house-to-house tax and as the Reserve is under the federal department of Indian affairs, such assessment cannot be levied by any government unless in the form of an agreement by the chief council and members of the band. Second, the levy of $500 to supply fire protection for the Reserve was unreasonable and the methods employed to extract this sum unbusinesslike. The spokesman for the Reserve said the Band council regretted the contention that had arisen, as there had always been such harmony with their neighbors. This was indicated by the free gift donation of 11 acres of reserve land to St. Mary's Hospital several years ago. He also pointed out that the incidence of fires in the Reserve village has been remarkably low. As an emergency measure of fire protection the Indian council also considered the advisability of re-equipping'the village with fire hose and extinguishers. A proposed agreement to supply fire protection for the Reserve between the fire district and the Indian Affairs branch, Vancouver, on behalf of the Sechelt Band was presented to the Reserve council by Mr. Gallagher, and after much discussion, a basis was agreed upon, the draft of which is now in the hands of the Indian Affairs branch for presentation to the fire district. Many at Prayer service Mrs. AY F. Willis welcomed more than 50 women to Calvary Baptist church, March 1, the World Day of Prayer. Representative women of the Anglican, Baptist, Pentecostal and United churches led the congregation in the service of prayer and commitment.

The all day workshop, sponsored by the Adult Education department of School District No. 46, held on Feb. 24 at the Cedars Inn, drew 35 participants from a wide cross-section of the community. They included members of the night school teaching, staff, man agement, labor, the public school teaching staff, the Sechelt Indian Band, the school board, the village council and other groups. The goal of the workshop was to introduce the psychology of adult learning and instruction methods to members of the community involved in adult leadership and instruction. Dr. Verner demonstrated his subject by examining the why and how of the learning process that was taking place in the workshop among the participants. The all-day session was the first of a series of work shops on adult education. The next will be in October. Hall paintings given praise (By FRED CARNEY) The paintings of Mrs. Hall, which can be seen at the Sechelt Art Gallery, exhibit some of the best qualities of amateur paintings. I'll hasten to add, since the word amateur has so often been used as a slur, that good amateur painters such as Mrs. Hall, display a regard for the craft, subject and meaning of painting that many professional painters could heed. Mrs. Hall is concerned particularly with her subject matter, but unlike painters such as Edward Hicks or Grandma Moses, this concern for the subject does not involve that meticulous search for detail that marks the works of the primitives. It's not just a difference of emphasis that separates the primitive from the amateur but a quite disparate approach to painting While the primitive is consumed by his particular vision that excludes, really, any consideration of the tradition of western art, Mrs. Hall constantly refers to this legacy and learns from it. She has already developed a quite competent technical ability and there is every indication that this competence will continue to grow. This technical igrowth will, I feel, only enhance her already sensitive response to and indeed contemplative approach to the world around her. Thus, her love of the subject and her knowledge of craft result in paintings like Storm Scene where a sensitive response to landscape and a careful consideration of form have resulted in paintings that become something other than just competent painting but are rather works that explore her unique view of the world. Author wi lelp writers Raymond Hull, currently teaching classes in creative writing for the school district's adult education department, will lecture this summer to the Pacific Northwest- Writers Conference at Bellingham.

By imaginatively using spools of mercerized cotton thread, you can add a special touch to your gift packaging. Attach the designs to packages with double-faced tape, and they can be saved for another holiday season. To make pompoms, take a spool of thread and slash across it with a single-edged razor. Remove the thread from the spool in one bundle and tie it in the centre with matching thread. Then fluff. A single pompom will make a thread flower. Loop a pipe cleaner under the centre tie of the pompom, and wind florist tape around the pipe cleaner. Start at the top and catch in the thread tie. Continue twisting tape around the pipe cleaner, and catch in velvet leaves on either, side. For a topiary tree, you will need three small spools of red cotton mercerized thread. Two pompoms can be made from each spool by tying the thread bundle on each side of the centre and cutting between the ties. Sew the six small pompoms to a four-inch red felt circle, interspersing with holly berries. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffdUse green velvet ribbon for a stem, and cut a flower pot shape from red felt.

UNDER-STORY WORKER When cutting down a tree, the beaver uses only his lower incisors as cutting tools. The upper teeeth are used merely to hold onto the tree. The beaver must be assured of water at. least two or three feet deep the year round as a refuge from its enemies, a highway to float food and lumber, and a cache for its food reserves. Not all beaver build dams to surround their houses with water. Many live in deep ponds or rivers where, even at lower levels, there is ample water for their needs.

Members are again appealing for flannelette and -cotton sheets in Sechelt where plans were discussed regarding the Regional meeting to be held April 24 in Sechelt's Legion hall. It was suggested that members of this auxiliary serve tea and assist in conducting tours through the hospital. A letter of thanks was read from Mr. Buckley for our donations to the hospital. A discussion on membership teas resulted in the following members offering their homes: Mrs. T. Sparling,- Garden Bay; Mrs. L. Alexander, Francis Peninsula and Mrs. O. Sladey and Mrs. G. Gooldrup, Madeira Park. In this it is hoped to increase the membership during Hospital Week, May 5 to 11. Tentative plans for money raising activities were discussed.

The next meeting will be held March 13 at 2 p.m. at Madeira Park Clinic' building. Bus problem Necessity for a daily bus service on the Sunshine Coast was stressed in a letter to the Regional District board from Mrs. B. Garner of Wilson Creek. Mrs. Garner protested the lack of a daily service during the strike and comments by directors brought up the point at Friday night's meeting that many people depended on the buses for the delivery of drugs and medical services. Desite the fact it was not within the powers of the regional board to handle such matters the chairman said he would approach Sechelt Motor Transport officials to see what could be done. To discover what is possible under such circumstances the board will write the Public Utilities Commission to ascertain what responsibility there is for maintaining a bus service within the area under abnormal conditions.

Auction helps A happy crowd turned out to the Arts Council auction sale on Saturday at the Wilson Creek Community Hall. Mr. J. Benner in professional form, soon had everyone laughing and enjoying themselves hugely and a remarkable variety of treasures soon found new owners. An avante-garde sculpture, described tongue in cheek by its creator as a paperweight for holding down taxes was coveted by an eager four-year-old, clutching his fortune of a whole quarter. Everyone unselfishly refrained from bidding against him and he was, with help able to carry his bargain home. Thanks go to Mr. Benner, those who donated and to those who came to buy.

Sechelt News (By MARIE FIRTH) Now that the ferry strike is over, everyone seems to want to go somewhere and those who have been somewhere are anxious to get back home. Among those to finally arrive home on the first day's run were Mr. and Mrs. Dave Hayward who extended their holidays nearly two weeks and sat out the strike at friends in Burnaiby. While holidaying in California, they spent several days at Desert Springs where they met Mr. and Mrs. H. Sawyer of West Sechelt who have been spending the win ter in the sun, also Mr. and Mrs. C. Davis, former residents of the Sunshine Coast, and Mrs. Roberts of Davis Bay. Visitors over the weekend at the home of Mr. and Mrs. B. Firth were Mr. and Mrs. Steve Firth and Karen of Coquitlam, Mr. and Mrs. Eldon Isaak and Laurie of Dawson Creek, and Mr. and Mrs. Alvin Daly of Murrayville. Books in library GIBSONS NEW BOOKS Adult Non-Fiction: The S>mug Minority by Pierre Berton. Beyond the Furthest Fences by Margaret Ford. Adult Fiction: The Scorpio Letters by Victor Canning. Rafe by Weldon Hill. About 200 persons attended the illustrated lecture by H. Klyne Headley, school district supervisor of music, aided by colored slides, tape recordings and three classes of songsters from two elementary schools. The first part of the evening was devoted to listening to the youngsters from Mrs. Marie Scott's kindergarten class at Gibsons elementary. The children displayed a freedom on stage which one would not expect and sang their numbers with great confidence. They enjoyed what they were doing. Mrs. Muriel Neilson's grade one from Gibsons elementary showed fine co-ordination and they too had no thought of stage fright. Miss Shirley Hooker's grade three from Roberts Creek school sang with noticeable clarity. All three classes gave more than was anticipated in their desire to reveal their various stages of musical ability. The recorder class under Mr. Drew McKee, instructor of Gibsons elementary school, displayed their abilities on their instruments which were pleasing to the ear. The Trapp Family in their concert programs throughout the United States have done considerable to extoll the usefulness of the recorder as a musical instrument. The performance of Giibsons pupils was delightful. Not on the program but quite welcome, was Mark English, who, on the difficult French horn, with Mr. Headley at the piano, tackled some Mozart and Mendelssohn. If that was his first solo public performance he is a natural. The second part of the program was Mr. Headley's experiences on his trip to Hungary and Czechoslovakia. Difficulties with the electronics part of his lecture were a distraction but experience can overcame them. His dissertation on the arts generally in those countries was informing and as he pointed out the children could have been from classes on the Sunshine Coast. As regards dress and manner they were no different. One angle of music instruction he brought back with him was the simple method of equating the hand with the music staff on which notes are written. This simplifies in the young mind how to rememlber the position of notes as written. His experience in Europe revealed the arts were just as much a part of the educational system as was arithmetic. Coordination in the mind as revealed through development of music was just as important as mathematical coordination in the use of figures. In 1965, the Kodaly method from Hungary was introduced into district schools. Zoltan Kodaly, who died last summer at the age of 85, was one of Hungary's foremost contemporary composers and had for many years concentrated on the teaching of music, especially to young children. As a result of the work done in Hungary and Czechoslovakia a remarkable worldwide reformation, in music education has come aibout. Last summer Mr. Headley made a study of music education in these countries. His colored slides and tape recordings supplied additional information of teaching techniques and allowed the audience to hear some of the children's work in these countries. This talk and demonstration of the methods and techniques used in music education was sponsored jointly by the school board and the Sunshine Coast Arts Council.

Mr. and Mrs. Jay Hemming and three children, driving from Ontario, pulled into Horseshoe Bay just in time to make the first ferry on Friday, and are guests of Mr. and Mrs. S. T; Black. Mrs. W. Luoma, Campbell River, and her hosts, Mr. and Mrs. C. Hilchie, benefited by the ferry strike inasmuch as a visit that was to be for a couple of days lasted more than two weeks and gave Mrs. Luoma an opportunity to renew old friendships. The Luoma family which included three children, Helen, Robert and Bruce, arrived at Roberts Creek with the B & K Logging Company and remained until it closed down at which time they moved to Campbell River. Their home was on the McMahon property on Beach Avenue and the children attended the old Elphinstone School tovwhich they walked daily. All are now married and living in Campbell River, and among them have seven grandchildren for Mrs. Luoma. Bill Luoma passed away last spring. Mrs. C. Beeman is home and recuperating after spending a few days in St. Mary's Hospital following a car accident. Mr. and Mrs. G. R. Rice have as their guests for ten days, Mr. and Mrs. Ray Gaines, Marie and Teddy Gaines, of Victoria.
