I hope many readers of this column Will get an opportunity to read carefully the wording of the memorandum of intent signed to consummate this unusual arrangement. Though the memorandum doesn't explicitly say so, it basically gives to the Wenner-Gren interests the exclusive rights to'prospect for minerals in the Rocky Mountain Trench area for two years. All other people are to be kept out while this organization spends $5,000.- 009 looking for oil, lead, zinc, copper, gold, tin and any other ithe opposition do. But we do Wenner-Gren's terms, no railway will be built and the $500,- 000 deposit will be returned. Meanwhile the Wenner-Gren company has had' a two year start* on mineral exploration, in that area to the exclusion i of everybody else.

February, 1947, CSanada had only two oil fields sffif any significant size. One -swots Norman Wells, N.W.T., which was too remote to serve populated areas. The other, Turner Valley, had been producing oil since 1936 and was declining. Article S Mention of shipping of surplus livestock to Vancouver callsto mind a scandalous episode in which I had a minor though much enjoyed part. We had a large boar pig, a very active animal, that could go over, under or throiigh any fence we had. As was customary at that time, hogs ran at large. The boar liked the taste of our garden stuff, and fenfces were no barrier. My Dad resorted to use of the shot-gun when the pig was in the garden, to try to teach him the error of his ways. Lit- \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd tie success could be- noticed, though plenty of fine,shot w;as drilled into his hide. When the charge of shot -would hit him the pig would dash madly for outside the fence; one time he sort of missed his direction, \ufffd\ufffd\ufffdand came straight toward the man with the gun; my Dafi thereupon gave him the other barrel right in the face, putting out one eye. Thep one time the Boar was ^engaged in a furious battle with a visiting boar, and my Uncle, always given to direct \ufffd\ufffd\ufffdaction,- undertook to establish peace with a two-handed club.

Soon, after Mr. Steinbrunner found reason to visit our- place, and inevitably a casual visit to the barnyard was m'adle. There paraded, in all his: glory,, that huge Indian game, with a head like an eagle, great sharp spurs, heavy wings-, and! probably twice the weight-of the little Dominiqu\ufffd\ufffds..

JUVENILE DELINQUENCY Several years agoya lady- asked me \ufffd\ufffdo visit her 19 year old' boy who was in jail awaiting sentence on a charge of car theft.\" She^said he .was lone- \" 2y and discouraged, shy and not easy. to.get along with'- I found him much as she hadi said, -(He. seemed frightened and resentful and as his mother had said -\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd not too blight in amany ways.' I gave him some enbeoiate bars and gradually he thawed' out a no! was grateful ;yet somewhat resentful. He made no excuse for his conduct and I gathered he had often been in trouble. Soon after he was given a stiff sentence of several years; as; he and his companions had guns; and society had to be protected. His was not a new story but I found myself perplexed and bewildered. * * * \" s' The one hopeful thing is that many of the best minds in the country are deeply concerned over juvenile delinquency, and practical ways of help are being tried. On my last visit to England, I spoke to a group of 600 children in a school in the east end of London. It was at that time .a sordid district and the pastor of the church, who had been 27 years there, told me that the record showed! that every fourth child got into trouble with the polices \"It is the record of this area\/' said the pastor, \"for over a century.\" . I once read a book by the \ufffd\ufffd\ufffdpsychologist Dr. Addington Bnice, too lengthy even to summarize here, but I laid it down feeling grateful that so many wise and good! people are sympathetic especially where, as the lady said about her b6y, some are not too bright. One may read. the newspaper accounts of young people's' eon- duct-but they are hot wholly to' blame; environment and careless home training and other factors are. to be taken into consideration. . 7 T One writer says .that\"' Solomon would have taken 'little, notice-of a child, whereas toy and Mrs. Max Enemark.. ; ..

Port Mellon PTA spent an interesting evening watching films used in connection with Grade 5 and 6 social studies shown by .Mrs. Wiren. Mrs. Johnson spoke briefly of the history of\/ the PTA and of the Elsie Lorimer Bursaiy Fund to which a donation is sent in February of each year, $3.50k was ' raisedl towards this donation by the exchange \"of Valentine gifts among the members. Before the beautiful birthday cake made by Mr. Lar- yry- Bredy was cut three candles were lit; for the school by Mrs. Wiren, for the parents\"by^^M^sT Reg Weston; mother of tlie youngest' pupil, and for the ' community by Miss.- Gail Greggain, reigning Pulp-Queen.^. The Kinsmen thanks the PTA whose volunteers come forward willingly each year and all those who gave so generously to raise the Port Mellon 1-957 collection \"for their Polio Re- habiliation Fund \"fo $205.75. . This is approximately $50 more than\/last year. The W.A. to the Community Church thanks all those -who supported their Valentine bake sale with gifts or donations and all who came to bdy. The amount raised, $32, is to be used for interior decoration of the new Sunday School Rooms. Ten cartons of toys were collected by the Cubs and packed by the W.A. to be dispatched through Ceeil Barnes to No. 12 Firehall, Vancouver, to be repaired.

We have lost our taste for the dried, hard-cured product, and favour ; instead moist; mild-cOred fish with - a. subtle, smoky tang. In modern smoking procedure, fish, are dipped in brine, exposed to wood smoke under controlled T($eB3Jw*\ufffd\ufffdUire conditions for a number of hours and then either refrigerated, frozen-*or canned^*-Mild-cured, smoked fish are handled with just as much care as fresh fish.

Some varieties \"of fish commonly smoked in this Country are: Atlantic cod, black Alaska cod, cisco or lake herring, goldeye, haddock (fin* nan haddie), herring \"(kippers), salmon, sturgeon and whitefish. Prime smoked fish has a glossy appearance, good even colour, no discolouration and smells fresh and! pleasantly smoky, A point to be noted in its preparation is that it is already partially cooked as a re- suit of the smoking process and -.'. requires only a short cooking period. Delicacies such as smoked salmon, smoked sturgeon, and smoked whitefsh' are often served cold without adl- ditiorial cooking. How should one cook smoked fish? The home economists of Canada's Department of Fisheries recommend such methods as: poaching, steaming, baking in aluminum foil or in a covered contaner, and broiling. For fish which have been heavily- brined they advise poaching gently in water to cover until the fish will flake on. testing, with a fork. For lightly brined fish they say that any of the methods mentioned are good. Two delicious recipi'es calling for smoked fish which you might like to try are, Kedgeree, and Smoked Fish Chowder.

However, conferences with construction men hav#led me to believe that the second project would cost well Over a million dollars and the first, well over half a million. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd- at least 3A. million properly equipped'. Even an impractical school-marm can see from her ivory tower that such a programme is over ambitious 'and* apt to lead to.Tfailure, frustration and a centennial year of nothing but hard feelings.'
