Grandly scenic, splendidly constructed, a broad smooth ribbon laid down for the traffic not of today or tomorrow but for the vastly greater volume of years to come, it shortens the distance from the teeming cities of the coast to the Okanagan Valley by one hundred miles and the time by several hours.

Saddest sight of the week, Roy Bertram's boat tied to the wharf, under water. There has been an epidemic of dog poisoning going on again, two dogs down my way, and a couple further up. Someone is leaving poison around very indiscriminately. This is a mighty dangerous thing to do, for if some little one playing around the area should pick up some of this poison, and it's quite possible, then it would be quite a tragedy. If you have a complaint against the animals, tell the owner. Surely people are reasonable. If anyone poisoned our pets, I think I'd be tempted to take some drastic action. I think that is the cruelest thing anyone can do. If they saw how an animal suffers in the throes of poison, it would certainly make them ill. Also, while on the subject, saw one poor dog get hit the other day on 'the road, 'and the driver did not even stop. The dog screamed loud enough for all to see and hear. As it hap- P I I J I ii DANCE in the Sechelt Pavilion Saturday, November 12th 9 p.m. to 12 p.m. Music by VIRGIL LANE'S DANCE BAND Admission $1.00 pened, the constable came along and picked the animal up and took it to the Vet. The dog is still alive, but no thanks to the driver. Some day it's going to be some small child on this main street. Too many children are running wild on the main road now that the road is in such fine shape. With trucks backing up, it's pretty difficult for a trucker to see behind the truck, and these little ones seem to be everywhere. It's going to be too late when the tragedy happens. A little more supervision of these small ones is strictly in order. Reading some quotations from other papers the other night came across this couple of items, which I thought were very good. Such things as electric washing machines and refrigerators and electrically heated bed-warmers were undreamed of when our grandparents were young, but a boy could pull up a shaggy dog or two,- if the night was bitterly cold. How true! And this little gem from another paper: A former traffic policeman in Toronto is studying for the Ministry. He should be able to steer people the right way. He might take as his text for a sermon, \"Where do you think you're going \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd to a fire?\" How about that Xmas cake folks, it's a good time now to get at it. The stores in the landing have a wonderful array of Xmas baking necessities, and while their stocks are complete it's a good time to get that cake or Xmas pudding assembled, and a few weeks will help to age it. The days are flying by, first thing we will know it's gonna be the night before Xmas. Where has the year gone? Seems only- yesterday I took that sad looking tree down, and reverently wrapped up the Xmas tree decorations, and put them away in their woebegone wrappings, hoping they'd last one more Xmas. Making a vow that I would buy one Xmas present a week, and not be caught this year at the last minute, and here I am right now. Haven't a thing, but one pair of sox, and every time I pick up a paper, and look at the ads, I almost shudder with the thoughts of it all. Having a large family, certainly adds to the gray hairs when you realize that Xmas is so very, very near. Oh well! We'll get through. We always do. And I guess that's half the fun racing around like mad, just remembering Aunty Lula- belle and Uncle Zeke, at the last minute. Trying to remember if you sent them a scarf or hankies last year, and whether you'd better try again this year with the same thing. Also remembering, I haven't made up that Xmas parcel yet for overseas, and I read somewhere that Nov. 15 is the deadline for the old country. Oh me! Will I ever get caught up? Couldn't sit down and enjoy that Xmas spread, unless I felt that the little adopted family in England had some share of good cheer also. A Remembrance service will THE COAST NEWS, Monday, Nov., 7, 1949 By PEARL PUNNETT Mrs A. ARMSTRONG and Mrs R. Dorman were here for a few days' visit last week. Mr and Mrs Joe Valentine are on a vacation to Stewart Island to visit with the latter's brother and sister-in-law, Mr and Mrs Jack Parrish. Very sorry to report the passing of Mrs A. H. Reed on Wednesday, October 26, after three months' illness bravely borne. She leaves to mourn- her passing her husband, Capt A. H. Reed; two sons, Dick of Montreal, and Bob of Quebec; two grandchildren, two sisters and one brother in Vancouver, one sister and one brother in England. A Halloween party was held at the school on Friday afternoon, Oct. 28. Invitations were sent out to the ladies on the island and there was quite a good turnout. Lots of children, too. They played games and had contests, and then the teen-age girls served afternoon tea with very nice refreshments. The young folks had lemonade. The teacher, Mrs Neilson, informed us that everything had been done by the children themselves, the decorations being especially nice. Congratulations to the children. There was a large turnout on Friday evening, October 28, in the school to * discuss proper be held Nov. 11 in Legion Hall at 11 a.m. The public is cordially invited to attend. Come and show your respect for our Veterans those with us, and in memory of those gone.. Well folks, missed out last week, but trouble along the line. So hope we can make up this time. Don't forget, give me your news, bring it to the shop, and I'll get it in print for you. Did someone visit you? Or were you away, or any news? It's always very welcome, and people do read the column you know, so bring in that news item, by Monday if possible. Thanks a million. And something else I found out. Garlic in a salad can either make or break a home. 'By now. transportation and better mail service for the island. Mr Batt Mclntyre was guest of honor. Mrs B. Morrison was chairman, and quite a discussion was had over the ferry service between Bowen Island and Horseshoe Bay, especially the weekends, and in rough weather is anything but pleasant. Mr Gerald Rushton, speaking for the Union Steaships, said they were putting on a boat from Vancouver at 9 a.m. on Saturday, starting November 5, and calling in on Sunday night at 5:15 for Vancouver. That will help considerably, as most Sundays the ferries are overloaded. This meeting was called by the Bowen Propertyowners' Association and was open to all residents of the island. A happy home life during childhood often tips the balance in favor of a mentally stable, well balanced adult life. Children need to be loved and wanted if they are to develop normal, happy mental attitudes. But a child needs to be able to investigate, to discover for himself. Over- protection is a common cause of mental ill-adjustment.

Besides administering the Act, and dealing with associated hydraulic problems, the Branch carries out many other related technical functions including: snow surveys from which the run-off of various rivers is forecast yearly; the checking of designs and plans of all hydraulic structures; the inspection of dams; and surveys of water resources including investigations and reports on irrigation, water works, flood control and power possibilities. Power investigations and reports by engineers of the Water Rights Branch have and are playing an important part in furthering the development of our Province. Here is a reason or two why this is so. British Columbia, while possessing only 8% of the population of Canada, has 27% of the confirmed water power resources of the Dominion. Further, our investigated but undeveloped power sites are capable, at a conservative estimate, of producing 11 million continuous horsepower per year, which is equivalent to 46 million tons of coal annually in terms of power production. Hydro power stands high among our natural riches. Power investigations involve extensive and arduous engineering surveys in some of our most difficult and rugged country, and complex hydraulic and design studies in order to show how each site may be most beneficially developed. To date, 183 individual power sites have been reported upon and an aggregate 770,000 h.p. is now under license. The exhaustive reports on the huge Eutsuk-Kim- squit and Chilko power schemes were instrumental in attracting the interest of the Aluminum Company of Canada. The press has made the public familiar with this type of development, which is ushering in a new era in our welfare.

Mr and Mrs Frank W. Alex- for some to be there that wouldn't have. Howard came down the trail and took anybody going to the Bingo up in his car and returned them home, and I can tell you he made several trips. There was a huge crowd turned out, and the prizes were grand. The Gordon Maunseys were one of the luckiest, winning a four pound box of chocolates and electric kettle for Lil's mother, Mrs Johnson. I even went to the Townsite Saturday and won nothing, but we do have fun. Well, we have badminton under way again and hope to see lots out. The badminton players have tea and cake Thursdays in the Chatterbox. The Trail Bridge club gave Mrs O. Kell a surprise baby shower last week and gave her a pair of scales and a bottle sterilizer. Then a gang of us are giving her a shower and intend to walk in on her at her own house. So I'll tell -you about it next week. ander returned home Sunday. Mr and Mrs S. J. W. Adkins went to Vancouver on Thursday, October 20, via the Union steamer from New Brighton. Mr Adkins was sole representative of Unit 276 at the quarterly conference of the Provincial Command, Army, Navy and Air Force Veterans in Canada, held at White Rock on October 22. Mr Francis Drage, JP, was indisposed. Mrs V. Atcheson returned home last week. She tells me her young daughter Jaqueline had a severe burn on the forearm. However, she is progressing favorably.

It did a lot of good as it was a group of people representing the average taxpayer and John Public. It was non-political and a good place to talk over the ideas in general that come up for discussion amongst a group of people trying to get what is best for the community as a whole. Things that were being discussed and worked upon seem to have died a natural death since the meetings ceased. So perhaps we shall see what can be done.
