Provincial Victoria, B Published in Gibsons, B.C. iL. Volume 8, Number 38. Thursday* September 23, 1354. Eighth Year of Publication A board of trade is no stronger than its membership, was the theme developed by speakers at the inaugural dinner meeting of Gibsons Board of Trade in Gibsons School Hall last Friday evening. Two speakers, Magistrate Andrew Johnston and Lock Knowles, the retiring president expressed the same viewpoint during the course of their addresses. The magistrate urged all who could to join and pull their weight in local affairs. Mr. Knowles, who preceded the magistrate as a speaker developed the subject also. Magistrate Johnston in his openiig remarks noted that he he was addressing a gathering which reached all the way from Pender Harbour to Port Mellon. He praised the retiring executive for the work it had done, a remark which drew a good round of applause from the audience. Next he drew the odd groan from his listeners by stating he had prepared a three hour address but* under the circumstances, with a dance band hovering in the background, he though it best not to give it, which drew sighs of relief. The Board of Trade he said, had a tremendous effect on the *, community. He showed how the member of the legislature had such a wide territory to cover that it was not possible for him to be everywhere at the same time and know everything that was going on. Under such circumstances, it was necessary that we have boards of trade so they can press for the requiremen.ts of their particular' afe_u '\"He> commented on the remarks . made by Mr. Knowles that there was something of interest to all which should make the membership much wider than it is at present. Don't sit back and, say what the Board of Trade should be doing. Get in there and help,\" Magistrate Johnston said. He commented on a recent letter in The Coast News. This letter concerned speeding in a certain area and Magistrate Johnston thought the writer should have taken a wider view and obtained the support of the Board of Trade on his request. Quoting Karl Marx, he said that nothing \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd was constant but change and it was up to the public at large to give direction to that change by expressing their viewpoints through organized bodies, such as the Board of Trade. It is a complex world in which we live and the only way to achieve our desires is to make them sufficiently expressive that higher authorities will have to take note of them. Magistrate Johnston's talk was interspersed with a considerable amount of humor and ' when Ed Sherman thanked Mr. Johnston for his talk he said he had never had so many chuckles in such a short space of time as those provided by the magistrate. Later in the evening the magistrate installed the two top officers, William Sutherland as president and Fred Bancroft as vice-president. The speech of the retiring president, Lock Knowles, revealed, as he said, that he had learned quite a few things about Board of Trade work. He explained he had been delving into the files of the work done by the board and discovered such operations ranged all the way from local to national affairs. He was of the opinion that the Board of Trade should be broader in scope than it is at present. Its membership should include other than purely businessmen because in a community the size of Gibsons any person interested in the development of the area should be a member. It was surprising, he said, how varied the work of the Board of Trade was and there would be plenty to interest everyone, if they joined. A pleasing event occurred before the close of the business section of the meeting when Mr. Drummond was presented with a set of knives, as a token of appreciation for the seven years he had been secretary. The presentation was made by Magistrate Johnston and in reply Mr. Drummond on receiving an honorory membership at the same time, said the work he had done had been for the community at large. He went on into some of the early history of the Board and urg- ?ed every person to join and get behind the board. He also dropped a remark that a movement was underway for the The; new mail schedule goes into effect at the Gibsons Post Office on Monday, Sept. '27, according to J.

The intention to remove trees whiclr might conceivably be a danger to property of Mrs. Doxsee was confirmed. Acceptance was given to the proposal of the B.C. Telephone Company of tax payments based on estimated revenue, in lieu of licenses or other taxes. Accounts totalling $400.00 were approved for payment. A permit for the installation of a septic tank was approved for May O'Shea. W. Peterson reported a further meeting in . connection with the organization of Civil Defence. Following the reading of considerable correspondence relative to the lack of sanitary facilities at Gibsons Wharf, W. Peterson reported upon the efforts of the Kinsmen to main- of tain these facilities at the Playgrounds, and the expense they were under due to damage causd by vandals. He suggested that any such conveniences installed at the wharf would be subject to the same misuse, unless constantly supervised, and suggested that the cost of such, protective supervision should be foreseen as an important part of the >cost of maintenance. '\"'\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd; 'The iBOard thanked' Mr. Peterson, for his report, and 'instructed the Clerk to summarize these points in a letter to the Ratepayers' Association and a copy to the Coast News; The Clerk was instructed to write to the solicitor, Mr. Eric Thomson, asking for a clarification of the position of the village in the matter of payment to R.

Silver Wedding Twenty-five years of married life have been good to Mr. and Mrs. Ross Roth of Gibsons, who celebrated their anniversary on Saturday, Sept. 18, at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Victor Klassen, their son- inlaw and daughter, in Vancouver. Old friends and new ones enjoyed an evening of reminiscing, and many useful and lovely gifts were presented to the \"Silver weds.\" . Ross Roth is one of Gibsons' Fishermen while his wife Muriel is our own local dressmaker: ' The wish of the community is that the next twenty-five years msy treat them as kindly, and that they may celebrate their 50th anniversary. as happily here. New Headquarters \"Credit Unions are a non - profit organization, but statistics show that they are also non-loss as far as B.C. is concerned,\" Attorney General Robert Bonner remarked on Sept. 18 as he officiated at the opening ceremonies of the new provincial headquarters of the movement in Vancouver. Demonstrating his confidence in the movement, Mr. Bonner during the afternoon became the 5,134th member of Vancouver City Savings Credit Union, and signed his small son up with the group's School Savings Club, 200 children with accumulated savings of over $14 thousand toward the cost of higher education. The hew Credit Union Building, with its adjacent properties, represents an investment of $150,000 by the 90,000 members^ of the credit union moye- Imeht iri B.C. Typical of the vigorous growth'of the organization, this is the third opening of new headquarters on the same site within seven, years, but this time allowance has been made for the addition of a third sto ry and further frontage along Broadway as expanding operations warrant. Three provincial organizations, the B.C. Credit Union League, the B.C. Centra? Credit Union and the CU. andl C. Health Services Society, together with nine individual credit unions, own the building jointly. Administration is in the hands of three trustees: Dr. John K. Friesen, Director of the Dept. of Extension of the University of B.C., R. J. Mc Master, a well known Vancouver Solicitor, and Frederick J, Graham, CA. Dedication Service On Sunday, Sept. 26*, at 2:30 p.m, the: Rev. IT. J. Bevan, of Gibsons- Memorial Church, and the Rev. H. U. Oswald, of St. Bartholomew's Church, Gibsons, will officiate at the dedication service of the Community Church at Port Mellon. EXTRA SLEEP! Sunday, Sept. 26, is the day to catch up on that sleep you lost early this spring. Just beat the gun and turn your clocks back on Saturday night and feel that sense of luburious ease on Sunday morning. Clocks return to Standard Time on Sunday, and anyone who fargets to make the change will find himself at work in the early hours of the cold grey dawn Monday morning. New Schedule For Bus Line T'he nQW Sechelt Motor Transport bus schedule prtuvfdU. es regular service for the people of the Egmont district and Earl Cove area, for the first time in their histories. According to Mr. Lawrence, service for these areas, and Britain River, leaves Eiarl Cove at 1:00 p.m. on Tuesdays, Fridays and Sundays, and passengers arrive in Vancouver at 6:00 p.m. On their return journeys, they are landed at Earl Cove at 1:00 p.m. The bus turns around immediately, and makes its run to Vancouver.. \\ POWELL RIVER SAILINGS The Canadian National Steamship's \"Prince George\" has taken over the company's sailings to Powell River, Ocean Falls, Prince Rupert and Ketchikan for the winter and spring seasons. Lights For Wharf The merchants and logging companies of the Sechelt area are installing lighting on the wharf at Porpoise Bay, for the convenience of travellers by boat, fishermen and loggers, water taxis, and for freight loading at that point. These lights work on automatic system, and will go on at dusk and off at daylight. The new regulation of \"No Parking\" on the wharf itself will make the wharf much more useful to everyone. Cars now park well back, thus leaving the actual dock free for passengers and for loading and unloading from boats. WHERE ARE THEY?

It was the kind the average citizen, should heed. It concerned the power of a community to make itself heard. By making itself heard it was not meant thalt the community should get out and be vociferous in its general attitude. What was meant, judging from remarks passed by variouc speakers, was that in order to make itself heard at the right time and in the right places the community should he organized. It just happens that the Board of Trade appears to be the right medium for the community to express its feelings on certain subjects, the kind that should be handled by an official representation of the community. Magistrate Johnston in his excellent speech, explained %ow in a democratic way of life, it was necessary for1 i the feeble voice of the individual in this world of lobbies and. oilier means of bringing pressure to bear, to be organized so the general effect of the single feeble voice is made more definite. An organized and recognized unit has the forceful- Jiess necessary to really express the feelings of the community. It was also suggested by the retiring secretary, James Drummond, that a movement was under way to organize a 'Greater Sechelt Board of Trade, which would take in Se- 'Chelt, Pender Harbour, Port Mellon and Gibsons and other places. Such a movement, if carried to its proper position in. the general scheme of things, would make the general voice \ufffd\ufffd\ufffdof Seehelt Peninsula one that would make the powers that foe feel that here was a movement which should not be ignored. To further develop the theme as outlined by Magistrate Johnston it would be necessary for persons with the interests of the community at heart to take a more active ipartin the affairs of the territory'in wliich they live. The .single voice of the individual would not create a ripple in official quarters. The combined voice of Gibsons Board of Trade should have effect.in the confines of its own district, \"but the combined voice of not only the Gibsons Board of 'Trade along with others, which have a potential membership .lying dormant, could help Sechelt Peninsula towards - a greater and more rapid development. Under the democracy in which we live it is definitely up to the populace to band .together in their own interests. The new president, William Sutherland, along with liis -new executive, could leave a strong impression in the .minds of Gibsons people by acting wisely during the year and really striving to make the voice of the Board of Trade ;a potent one. ALONG THE SHORES By Barrie Zwicker of The Coast News I Drove In The Stales On JLabor Day Weekend and Lived * * * Having set out from far-off '-'\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd' i* i y -a.. ' Manitoba in my car, arrived in Gibsons, and having traded my car for a boat, I look back on that long auto trip with- belated fear and trembling. ; It's all like a mad mechanized dream now as I look back on it from the vantage point of sixteen days. A dream studded with the sharp staccato curses of snarling drivers and the low wailing of the police siren: * * * There I was, going on a trip through the States. I had been^ travelling serenely along for* a full day and a half with my arm out the window. In fact, the first night I stopped, I realized that I looked very funny with that one sunburned elbow. * * * All was. going smoothly and then I noticed that something was wrong. The first sign of trouble was innocent enough. I was approaching a highway junction and found that my right-of-way was blocked by a speeding stream of cars travelling in one direction bumper to bumper and every second car attempting to pass.. This was alien to me. Up to now on my travels, the traffic up front, had seemed to sort itself out. When I swung into this Labor Day rush,- I found that it was a matter of Chryslers versus Buicks, and Chevs better stay out of the way. Shallow Well EJECTOR Water This quiet, compact water system is ideal for home use. It provides all the water needed, even when two or three taps are iii use at the same time. Low first-cost, plus low installation and maintenance costs, make the F-M Shallow Well Ejector a. real bargain, too! It's all ready to put into use because it's a complete unit. The motor never needs oiling or greasing. The pump has only one moving part, and requires no lubrication. There are no leathers to wear, no belts to replace, no valves to clean. Air balance in the pressure tank is maintained automatically. And, of course, it's guaranteed by Fairbanks- Morse. Let us show you this outstanding water system. . This continued all day Friday and Saturday too. The cars began to take on personalities and almost seemed human. You could tell what one was going to do by its make and condition. If there was a Cadillac behind you knew it was innocent \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd innocent like a rhinoceros with its mouth closed. When he, decided to pass he'd leave lots of room for you\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdif you were riding a bicycle. Otherwise you had to polish off power poles and hope the ditch was> smooth. T'he cars may have taken on personalities but the trucks never did. They were just big. If one of those monstrous brutes came around a corner on more than, two wheels, he'd go back and do it over again right. * * * It's funny how some drivers use their own imaginary center lines. The ones on the road don't mean a thing to them. Their imaginary dividing line is based on the fact that they own one half of the road and have a 99-year lease on the other half. * * * But the strangest thing of fill on the trip came to my at- tntion right in Vancouver on Sunday, when traffic was supposed to be light and slow on account of everybody had settled down for the week-end. There to my amazement, all the Vancouver drivers accelerated to 40 m.p.h. in each block of the Kingsway when the signs plainly said the\" lights were set for 29 m.p.-h. They therefore had to \"tramp on the brakes at each corner. They continued to do this at each light, amid the smoke of burning tires and swirling exhaust fumes. I thought to myself of the tests scientists have made to determine the intelligence of such animals as rats. I believe that, were a white rat driving a car on the Kings- way, he would learn to travel at 29 m.p.h. Maybe he wouldn't know anything about saving tires, gas, and nerves, but he'd be more likely to get his cheese that way. ' Editor: - As a long time resident on the Sechelt Peninsula i;was interested in Mr. McBurnie's letter in your issue of 9th Inst: It raises some questions in one's mind. He admits that the Powell River people \"are not entirely satisfied with the decision as rendered.\" We know that quite a number there favour the operation of the Sechelt Motor Transport along the whole route from Powell River through this Peninsula as it would allow freer transportation and communication between coastal points and be more economical in every way. The S.M.T. has the buses, up to date vehicles, and have been operating an efficient service for some years. Their headquarters are along the route and not at either extreme end. Mr. McBurnie's letter gives one the impression that Sechelt is the only community on this Peninsula. Has he not heard of Gibsons Landing, Roberts Creek, or Pender Harbour, where several thousand dwell? What did the Powell River Stages have to sell before it obtained this temporary franchise? As for the argument re \"closed doors\" through West Vancouver etc., anyone cognizant of the history of the growth of that district knows the answer. Also that condition in Hope, Maple Ridge and other communities. Because mistakes in the granting of franchises have been made in the past is there any reason why they should be repeated on this Coast by the present P.U.C.? Have we. the Public, no right to consider or question what our Public servants do? Were they appointed to dictate to us, or to act for our convenience and economy? As I see it, Sir, it matters not what company has the franchise provided that the !one to whom *it is granted gives the most efficient, economical and comfortable service to\" all the Public along this Coastal route. I After all, it is we, the Public, who pay in the end. Let us have the best possible. K. E. Jermain. Pender Harbour, B.C. off the bus, although Mr. Lawrence has two cabs in there at all times. I have inquired and I know. Also the bus line takes an unfair advantage in using advance information as to what passengers require taxi service. A passenger who has luggage is smothered with service and luggage is lifted from the racks and very kindly placed into one of the bus line cabs. Should a poor old soul however, get off the bus with shopping bags, who is known never to hire a taxi, she is left to struggle down the steps alone. The same applies on the return trip to Vancouver. Here a bus driver never lifts a hand with the luggage. You get off as best you can. Another thing Mrs. Orkney says, taxis are in danger of getting hit by the busses in the depot. Does this not apply to private cars? At Labor Day weekend the depot was full\" of them. This letter has not been solicited in, any way, but Frank French and Harry Sawyer (Sechelt Taxi) have given good service for a good many years, and I feel it is a disgraceful state of affairs when two World War veterans, one of them disabled, have to stand aside and lose their only means of making a living in favor of able bodied young men who could be gainfully employed at another occupation rather than driving taxi if they so wished.

Either the motorist cannot read, or is going so fast, that he cannot see them. Twenty-five miles per hour is just a sign, 50 to 60 is more like it. Not only are the signs useless, but have been moved to a new location right in the section where the children cross to go to the beach. There is a dangerous turning here, and some day there is going to be a severe accident, or someone killed. Whoever is responsible for having the signs removed should come -here to inspect the situation and have them moved to their former location. I don't think the people here are speed maniacs, but the drivers from Vancouver and Powell River, especially when the ferry is in, are not slow drivers. It is time this speeding on the highway was put to a stop before some child is killed or injured. H. Steed. START SAVING Follow the example of 80,000 other Canadians.

The little gaffer, above, is not one of Rawhide's \"boys.\" He is Ferguson's son Scott. The rest of the family has also moved to Halifax but, we are told, they took a train. The First Gibsons Cub Pack is now in full cry, and has got away to a good start for the 1954-55 season. , Owing to graduations to Scouts, there are a few vacancies in the Cubs. New members should apply at the School Hall on Wed., Sept. 29th at 3:30 p.m., or parents may phone Mr. Kruse. Quite a number of new Cub members are expected to enroll, so two assistant Cub leaders are required to teach the new sixes. Anyone who desires to help with this movement should contact Mr. Blaine or Mr. Kruse. Their help will be appreciated. RIPEN ON TREE BLACK BALL LINE, LTD.

Pour Foundation for New Business He intends to operate a butcher shop in conjunction with the locker plant. Mr. Watson comes from Vancouver, and surveyed several towns as a site for this business, before deciding that Sechelt offered the best business opportunity. Mr. Harry Bachelor is in charge of the construction!. The foundations were poured last week for Norman Watson's new business, the first locker plant in the area. This new building is between the Pool Hall and Chuck's Motors Welding Shop. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd . FOR QUICK RESULTS COAST NEWS CLASSIFIED There is a tendency for Mcintosh growers to harvest the crop at a minimum ' maturity rather than take a chance on losing a substantial quantity of windfalls while awaiting for development of prime maturity. As a result, a significant portion of the Mcintosh crop is harvested immature which means poor color, poor flavor, and disappointment to the consumer, says D. V. Fisher, Experimental Station, Summer- land, B. C. In judging whether or npt Mcintosh are ready to harvest, several useful guides may be employed. The first is to count 132 days from full bloom and establish this as an appr oxi- mate date. Experience has shown that in the Okanagan Valley of British Columbia, it takes approximately this number of days to mature the crop, although the volume of Mcintosh to be harvested in any one orchard may necessitate extending the picking time from five days before until five days after the optimum (127-137 days). The second harvesting guide is the change in color of seeds from white to light brown and finally to dark brown. Mcintosh of the best maturity will show 100 percent dark: brown seed color, but the .crop1 should never be harvested: until: 80 percent of the seed surface is dark brown in color. Another test recommended in Eastern- Canada is based on the change- of the ground color of the skin from a green to a yellowislb green stage.

VANCOUVER, _?.0- crr.w* This advert'tsemen' is no! published or displayed by* She liquor Control Boord or by fh\ufffd\ufffd Government of British Cc-; ilSic? T The Coast News Thursday, September 23, 1954. Editor: Your issue of the 9th instant publishes two notices inserted by Powell River Stages and a letter from E. McBurnie, assistant manager of that company. The contents of the letter would no doubt indicate to your readers that it was directed at Sechelt Motor Transport Ltd., and under ordinary circumstances the' information, so given by Powell River Stages \"would call for a full reply. At this time however it is not proper to enter into, or to provoke, a controversy since the decision of the Public Utilities Commission which granted to'' Powell River Stages and refused Sechelt Motor Tansport Ltd. ihe right to operate buses be- feeeen Vancouver and Powell S?iver, is presently the subject of an appeal to the Provincial Cabinet at Victoria, B.C. There are nonetheless state- jsrrerats and implications in Mr. McBurnie's letter that demand comment now. Originally this company was approached by a -representative of Powell River Stages upon the basis that it fee taken over by this company. However, to date,, Powell Ri- ^er Stages refused to indicate Sac- price or terms, upon which it would be prepared to sell ar*d negotiations were terminates!1. It should' be noted that none of the equipment which would be the subject matter of sueb a sale could be used in the operation of a bus service between Powell River and yancouver, which bus service Is \"the only matter involved in the present contest. Mr. McBurnie quotes the -Tares of his company; he does eiot quote the through fare of this company, $7.25 in compar ison with that of his company, $8.50. He does not deal with this company's offer of two round trips daily compared to his company's one round trip daily. Finally may I suggest to Mr. McBurnie that it is most unusual and improper to rush to the press with a matter that is under appeal to the Cabinet, and further that it is strange that he did not make use of his own town paper in this controversy, if, as his company's, advertisement in your newspaper states, such notices must not be construed as soliciting business in the Sechelt Peninsula area. F.I>. Pratt, Director, Sechelt Motor Transport Ltd. NEW TELEPHONE BOOKS COMING First book-type telephone directories will be issued in. October to subscribers in the exchanges taken over by the B.C. Telephone Company and Northwest Telephone Company from the Federal Government last Fall. Three directories will be distributed.

The officers for 1954-55 were installed by the principal of Roberts Creek School, Mr. J. D. Jones, at the first Tegular meeting of the PTA, and were: Mrs. J. Jack, president; Mr.s E. E. Wallis; First vice-president;^ Mrs. J. Gib.b, Second vice-president; Mrs. G. Beeves, Secretary-treasurer; Mrs. C. F. Haslam, Programme; Mrs. K. Pearson, Finance; Mrs. E. Flumerfelt, Social;, Mrs. J. Newman, publicity; Mrs. J. Rusk,! Membership; Mrs. D. Blake- Health. It was with regret that the resignation of Mrs. *CJ Hillier, able secretary for the last two years, was accepted. Mrs. Hillier is leaving tfae district. Mrs. Jack's first act, upon taking the chair, was to present Mrs. Hillier with a gift together with a few words expressing appreciation of her fine work in the past. Boy Scouts In her report, regarding the forming of a Boy Scout Unit here, Mrs. Blake spoke of the difficulties experienced by the committee in 'getting the organization started, and stated that some of the leaders in this project were losing interest. The committee was asked to make one more attempt. Mrs. E. E_ Wallis reported on the July Garden Party and tea and moved a vote of thanks to Mrs. E. J. Shaw at wJiose home Roberts Creek Round-up made by Mr. A. Heath in the near future.. Money voted to buy the prizes was given to e Mrs. Blake to make the purchases. All members , -present were urged to attend the School Board meeting on the 20th. Selection of a committee to work with other district PTA members on* the Talent Nights for next Spring was left to the president. Mr. J. D. Jones, newly appointed principal of the school, was introduced and made a short address. With the close of the meeting a friendly cup of tea and refreshments were enjoyed. Spare Games? Kicking around your attic or basement, or clogging the hall closet, have you any usable, outgrown games? Mrs. Blake, who teaches Grades 1, 2 and 3 is looking for some to amuse her kiddies on rainy days at noon hour. Surely there is at least one Snakes and Ladders board or jig-saw puzzle with most of the pieces intact. Helps with the Spring Cleaning, if any, if you unload some of the junk when an opportunity like this comes along. Madeira Park Trip Eight members of the . Roberts Creek PTA were among the Peninsula PTA and teachers Federation members who journeyed to Madeira Saturday to the joint meeting which has become an annual affair. They were greeted by repre- sntatives of the Madeira Park PTA with steaming cups of coffee which, considering the weather and the early hour of rising, were welcome indeed. Mr. W. M. Toynbee, Council Representative of the B.C. Teachers, and Vice-principal of Glen Eagle School, was guest speaker. He spoke capably on many .aspects of B.C. education and touched on curriculum difficulties, the necessity of Fed eral aid for school support and the shortage of teachers. Following the noon recess the teachers proceeded to another room where they held their meeting, while PTA members remained for theirs. Mrs. N. Hough presided over the PTA group with Mrs. Eric Inglis as secretary. the affair was held.

Sunday is the big game between the \/'Old Timers\" and the Gibson Firemen at the High School grounds at 2:30. The \"Old Timers\" under coach \"Eagle Eye\" Fitchett have not been training too hard as they feel they will walk away with the game. My opinion ia that they will have to walk away with it as I don't think many' of them can run. I hear that 'Bull Moose' Reichelt has been running from Granthams to Gibsons and back twice a day to be . sure he is fit. Johnny 'Mangier' Wilson has been hoisting about five tons \ufffd\ufffd\ufffdof coal a day to be sure he will be in shape for the massacre. Practically all the local old timers will participate in the game, and one of the stars promises to be Eric 'Home Run' Inglis wHo has been improving his batting eye on the tennis court all summer. The Old Timers are supposed to have terrific pitching strength and will probably prove it by using two at a time. It was first decided to make this .game a national affair, but after thinking it over the persons in charge decided that it wouldn't be fair to take the crowds away from Cleveland and New York in the World Series. Anyway it should be fun for all and the benefits will go to help a very worthy organization, the V.O.N. So let's air turn out on Sunday and support this movement. I was fortunate enough to see the B.C. Lions and the Edmonton Ffekimos on Monday night. The Lions may not roar in '54 but they'll be alive in '55. My prediction for the World Series: Giants in six games. BOWLING NEWS Sechelt Ten Pin Bowling League Standings W L Pts. good start with the Sechelt Ten Pin League starting things rolling.

Approximately forty members and friends of the Elphinstone Lodge here paid a fraternal visit to the members of the Triune Lodge at Westview, Powell River, this past weekend. Grandmaster Andrew Johnston headed the visiting party. The trip was reported a real success, and one that was enjoyed by every member of the party. They were greeted and made welcome by members of th Triune Lodge and their Grandmaster, who, in addition to giving the visitors a very fine banquet, also showed them over almost the whole of the Powell River area. The scc^e of development over the past few years at Powell River, Westview and all the surrounding towns* wa9 most impressive. The cleanly, well kept appearance of homes and gardens, shops and business places was very noticeable. The new airfield, the Will- ingdon arena which is- being rushed to completion for the Fair, and the huge paper plant were some of the things the local lodgemen found impressive. Through the courtesy of \"Batt\" Maclntyre, who made the visitors completely at home in the hotel, the party found itself very comfortable. One tee-totaller got really wet, even though just with water. The ferry trip itself was reportedly really beautiful, and one that should attract many travellers. On the ferry, old friends Bert Fladager, Dick Reichelt, Eddie Maehon, Paul Shives and H. Hjorthoy were met with pleasure. In going through the plant with one of the parties, Vic Franske met a young brother at work whom he had not seen for some years. the has For file BIG THANKSGIVING DANCE FRIDAY, OCT. 8th Vancouver's Famous AH Girl Band THE 6 RHYTHfYI LARKS Playing For Your Dancing Enjoyment Old Time and Modern Dances PENDER HARBOUR COMMUNITY HALL Dancing 10:00 p.m. to 2:30 a.m. Admission $1.00 per person Johnson - Watts Wedding On Friday, Sept. 17th, at 8 o'clock in the evening, Rev. Robert R. Cunningham performed the marriage ceremony for Rose Marie Johnson, second daughter of Mr. and Mrs. H. Johnson of Grantham's Landing, and Harold Ross Watts, son of Mr. and Mrs. Harold Watts of Vancouver. The wedding took place in the St. Andrews Wesley Chapel. The Matron of Honor was Mrs. Arlene Godfrey of Gibsons, and the Bridesmaid, Miss Joan Schrieber of Vancouver, and Linda Johnson, a small sister of the bride, was flower girl. The bride wore white satin and tulle with a finger tip veil held by a Mary Queen of Scots headpiece, and carried white carnations and red rosebuds. The Matron of Honor and the bridesmaid wore yellow and mauve net over taffeta, and carried tinted carnations to match. The flower girl was in blue organdy with pink rose trim, and carried dwarf roses and sweet peas. ' The bride was given in marriage by her father, and Reginald Watts, a younger brother of the groom, was best man. The reception was held in the Bakers Winter Gardens, on Kingsway, at which the toast to the bride was pledged by the bride's uncle, Mr. Ernest Saunders, of Vancouver. Young Mr. and Mrs. Watts left by the midnight boat for Victoria, following which they would leave\" for Port Angelus and points south.* They will be at home in Vancouver oh their return. Club Plans Ladies Night J. Barker, manager of Peninsula Athletic Club, noted the interest of the ladies of the district in the place, and the games, and so has instituted Ladies Nights.

For the first Ladies Night, Monday, Sept. 27th, everyonu_ is invited to enjoy an evening's play at any of the tables or at shuffleboard, absolutely without charge. This is to give the ladies a chance to see the Club and the games, and to become acquainted with the play. The club will be open for them from six to eleven in the evening. The Party, who travelled up to Powell River by bus, through the generosity of Alex Anderson, were glad to have Capt. Metcalf as a member of the party, to keep them -posted on the points of interest they passed, particularly Lang Bay. To those who visited Powell River and the Triune Lodge for the first time, the trip was an eye opener. For those who revisited after as few as five or six years, the changes and general improvements in, and growth of the area, and the renewing of acquaintanceships made the whole trip a pleasure.
