Here are the results of the votes that covered water for the entire district and lighting for some small sections: Here is the unofficial' vote by ing bylaw No. 19: 47 yes and 24 .AN EXPLANATION *\\ * r' ' c \"A late, rush of advertising including the, school board referendum - advertisement on page fiye; ligj., resulted in- less space for\/news items, therefore some have-been left- out' for next week's-paper. The-district school board will place Referendum No.- 9 before the public on election day, Sat., Dec. 7. This referendum calls for an expenditure of $1,620,200 to cover expansion at Gibsons, Langdale and Sechelt areas. The debentures will cover a 25 year period. Here is what the referendum covers: For Elphinstone school there will be $817,000 for purchasing, constructing or reconstructing buildings; $312,700 for developing the .playgrounds and .$75,500 for furnishing and- equipping: build- irigs,, making, a total of $925,200. This will take in an additional 118 rooms for-Elphinstone school divided as follows: Gymnasium, 1, standard, classrooms 2, art rooms 2, lunchroom 1, comanun- \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd ity'^rvices 3, Industrial,arts11, senior science 4, administration; (400 \"sq. ft:) i; ha_ne_management 2,- andf commerce 1. For Sechelt there will be $507, 100 with $37,000 set aside for a secondary school site and $443,- 000 and $20,400 for building and furnishing the complex to amalgamate the present elementary buildings under continuous roofing. This will supply Sechelt with: Standard classrooms 7, kindergarten 2, library 1, activity and kitchen 1, administration (1800 sq. ft.) 1 and' a covered play area (2800 sq. ft.) At Langdale where $21,000 has been set aside for an addition there will be $2700 spent on the site, $17,000 for an additional room and $1,700 for furnishings. At a special meeting in Eljphin stone school attended by about 30 official's and others frdkn Sechelt and Gibsons areas,.Monday night, R. R. Hanna, district superintendent of schools,igave a breakdown of the cost to\"the ratepayer of this referendum. , He based his figures on this year's assessment of $45^400,894 for the school district. The principal of referendum ^ 9 totals $1,620,200 and- over a 25 year period) with interest added this figure would double to $3,240,400 The yearlyl requirement' to retire the $3,240,400 would amount to $129,\ufffd\ufffd-16. ,.He_, explained that this, debt added^ to previous referenda _\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd moved the school board: into the- area of .government' sharing where the \"government pays 75 percent aiKlr the school district 25 percent: ' \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd- \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd * Mr. Hanna then explained' that 7*25 percent of the $129,6_J6 principal and~ interest would come to $32,404. . One mill of the total assessment in 1968 amounting to $45,400,894 would be $45,400. To handle referendum' No. 9 on this basis would cost the ratepayer 0.71 mills. When it comes time to actually pay taxes it could be that the increase in the homeowner grant would be such that actually very little would have to be absorbed by the ratepayer.\" It was a big day! This is an important day for the people of the Sunshine Coast said Hon. Isabel Dawson, minister without portfolio in the provincial government when she officially opened the Sunshine Coast home for {senior citizens at Sechelt, Sunday afternpon by cutting the ribbon\"guarding['.they entrance of one of the suites. I Canon\" Alan Greene, she said, 7bad done a great deal of work on one of his Tgreatest wishes and she congratulated him and the others who helped1 hin_ in'; the project. He brought a little more happiness into the lives of our senior citizens, she added. Two. hundred persons attended the ceremony at the site of the homes and then moved to St. Hilda's church hall where presentations were made and refreshments served. A guest book, donor's book, a plaque, a gift-wrapped box containing $15 in pennies from the Sunshne Coast Gospel Church children at Davis Bay were passed to officials of the committee in charge of the homes. Then an Old Age Pensioners organization choir directed iby Dorv othy S-OckweU, provided two numbers, one of which was Bless This House. It was also announced that Elphinstone School Junior Red Cross members had presented tlie committee with $15. Hon. Mr. Dawson, during the presentations handed canon' Greene a cheque for $4,805.76 as the fifth instalment of the provincial government's share of grants to the, building of the hbines. Y_\ufffd\ufffd7 J; Wallace, repre- , sentinjgj the premier, presented Canon .Greene^with a plaque. At Ythe7 ceien-oriyYwhen the i ribbon --\"was cut were Hon.

Following the cutting of the ribbon those gathered outside were permitted to walk through the prepared suite, and examine the layout consisting of three rooms with back and front entrances. At St. Hilda's Hall ample refreshments 'had been provided by a community committee convened by Mrs. William McGregor of West Sechelt. Among the donors of eatables was the Village Bakery. Food left over was auctioned. Wives of the Sechelt Lions club members are planning to \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd< put up $600 of drapes when the suites are ready.

Form Indian NDP club A Seohelt NDP club caHed the Kwahtahmohss Club was given its charter Saturday afternoon in the reserve hall when Tom Berger and Dr. Ray Parkinson, iboth NDP members of the legislature,. Clarence Joe and his son Gilbert, who received the charter, all spoke on Indian affairs as they exist. Wayne Clark of. Sechelt' was chairman. There were at least 100 at the meeting. The necessity of setting up a University of B.C. Institute of Indian Studies was suggested by Mr. Berger. He believed the society with the Indian average life span of 35 years compared to the white, with 65 years. Clarence Joe who followed Mr. Berger. said that Mr. Berger was. the most advanced lawyer speaking on behalf of the Indians on the land question. He maintained: that-the land was never surrendered by the Indians or fought for.

Only one other student has received so many awards. Vincent received these awards at an award luncheon held at ;the institute on October 25.

Formation of a comprehensive interdisciplinary institute of Indian. Studies would include courses in law, economics, engineering, linguistics, sociology and anthropology, Berger sug- ested. The Institute could operate as a bank of experts who would be available to help Indian bands and Indians everywhere in the province. Law schools are particularly guilty of ignoring Indian questions, Berger said.' There should be a course or a series of courses at the UBC Law School, dealing with native Indian rights, as part of this proposed Institute's program. Too many courses at law schools are devoted to training lawyers to serve corporations; yet we should be concerned about training lawyers to help Indian people, in fact to help the poor throughout the province, he added. We have people at the university who have spent many years studying Indian affairs. It is time that we enabled these people to serve in a back-up capacity, as resource persons, for Indian bands and Indian people throughout the province. They could assist Indians to develop co-operative and commercial development on reserves, to establish nursery schools and kindergartens, and to upgrade housing on the reserves. Mr. Berger was of the opinion the federal and provincial governments should do as is done by the United' States' government. There, all land obtained from the Indians is paid for. He referred to the B.C. Nass Valley court case which was instituted by the Indian band and said he believed that settlement of the land question would bring the Indians into our way of life. He argued that laws were enforced against Indians much more than with other ethnic groups. He had never heard of a white person being charged with trespassing on Indian Reserve lands. He said we have no right to be smug in our dynamic dian; cor-refence\" at 7Chi__rwaCk asked the federal government to bring forth a new Indian act; drawn up by some of tip Indian legal advisors. The five days \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd spent at Chilliwack with 68 delegates present were not enough to* cover all of the Indian problems. Dr. Ray Parkinson, MLA, declared that something would have to .be done about the health - of Indians. He dwelt on his experiences while practicing at Es- sondale clinic. British Columbia had the second highest death rate among Indians in all Canada in this the most affluent province in the dominion.' Outlining the high death rate among Indian children, Dr. Parkinson said that we have got to make sure the Indian child survives but, he added, nothing will change until we have a change of government in B.C. Comments were made by speakers on the unfair treatment Indians receive in historical matters and it was pointed out that Custer slaughtered indiscriminately and he is a hero. 7 Also if it had not been for Indian guides, Fraser would most likely have drowned during his B.C. explorations. Riel who was hanged is now a hero. Aid. Adele deLange thanked the speakers following the hand- Y ing over of the club charter to Gilbert Joe. In the evening a turkey dinner was followed by a dance, described as one of tlie most exciting events that has occurred on the reserve in recent days.

The two areas this side of Sechelt that were in the doubtful . column expunged that doubt by voting heavily in favor, Roberts Creek with 170 for to 56 against, and Hopkins Landing with 84 for and 29 against. 7 . The total unofficial vote is 718 for and 338 against.The fact that it is slightly more than two-to-one in favor-should leave rio doubt what are the intentions of most of the populatioin in the Regional District. However as was expected Pender Harbour area, which does not enjoy encroachment in their affairs by the Regional District iboard, were not in favor. It seems odd but Egmont voted 11 yes and 5 no; Garden Bay 17 yes and 43 no but the Madeira Park vote was much closer, 60 yes and 62 no. This sets the Pender Harbour vote at 88 for to HO against which does not show too devastating a defeat. Practically every person approached by the Coast News is pleased with the result and regards it as a very necessary step, which if not taken now, would take two or three years at least before anything could be done towards supplying the area with much needed water. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd--... 7-. It is a big step in the right direction andi some of those who remain disgruntled because of possible tax increases, will mostY likely keep their ear to the ground to discover'what the approach of water will do to the sale price of their property holdings. 7 Benefits for everyone The latest issue of the Royal Bank of Canada monthly letter contains information which- should be passed on to. every person ,1 who is interested in advertising. We offer this excerpt without ; comment: 7 Reading advertisements keeps consumers alert to opportunities for raising their level of living. There are.many things we buy because we must have them in order to live: food, clothes, arid shelter, for example. Within this area advertisements help us to make sensible choices. Then there are things not necessary but desirable: advertising introduces us to them, and spurs our ambition to possess them. Advertising works for the people as well as for the advertiser. It helps to stabilize industry by providing continuing markets, and thus provides employment. It emphasizes quality and use, which are sounder criteria than price alone. The question What Use is Advertising?' may be answered by saying that it benefits everyone in the country. It sells goods, and making these goods keeps people at work. The factories support towns, with their schools, churches, hospitals, stores and professional services. They use raw materials from forest field, mine and sea, thus providing employment for people far beyond their walls. They keep at work the men who operate the boats, trains, airplanes and trucks which bring in the raw materials and carry away the finished products. Advertising provides the sales which raise the money to build new plants and buy machinery. It is an integral part of the western w&y of life. Coast News 5-10-20 YEARS AGO By A R. BUCKLEY Plant Research Institute, Ottawa In most of Canada, deciduous trees may be planted successfully in the autumn soon after the leaves have dropped1, provided certain necessary precautions, are taken. Not the least important of these is to go out to your local nursery and select the trees you need Yfor immediate delivery. These will then be \/freshly dug and will[ stand a much better chance of \ufffd\ufffd\ufffdsurvival than those delivered in a somewhat dessicated condition in spring. One of the factors that contribute to failure of trees planted in the fall is the early arrival of a compete freeze-up before the . new roots ha've a chance to become established. To guard a- gainst this happening apply a 3 or 4 inch mulch of leaves, straw or peat moss if severe freezing weather occurs soon after planting. 7 . '\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd.'\/:*. \"# *Y. Trees are living things and! must be treated with care from the time you get them until they are flourishing in your garden.: Ever, though there may be .rio leaves on the tree; at planting'; time, moisture is' slowly evaporating from its branches arid trunk arid this moisture must be replenished. This is only possible if the plant keeps a ^1^^^^^ small\" hairs on the roots. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd;;\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd' As soon as the ropts dry out these root hairs are lost and must be replaced by the.:'tyee.\" The period between the receipt of the trees and the actual plant-Y ing operation is often the most critical one, and this is when most amateur arlborists make their big mistake. They fail to realize that if a tree lies around in the sun with its roots exposed for longer thaih ten minutes or so, it siilfiers almost irreparable damage, the kind of damage that may not show until some months later, when branches Of the young tree die for no apparent reason. Trees should be planted as'\" soon as they arrive from the nursery, but if it should happen1 that you are not ready for plant-\/\/; ing, either.-heel them in the va- * cant area in your garden or put- them in the sha.de and cover the roots with burlap until they can b|e planted. Trees up to two inches in diameter . can be planted in the fall with bare roots. Dig holes a foot wider than the root \" spread and provide up to four inches of top soal under the root .system: Spread the'roots naturally and cut off cleanly all those that are broken and! bruised. > A good! rich top soil mixture composed of one-third peat moss or well-decayed leaves, one- third sand and one-third good top soil should be forked in a- mong the roots. * * * Move the plant up and ..down gently to prevent air pockets and insure proper contact with the soil. When the roots are covered trample the soil firmly. Newly planted trees should not be fertilize-, the first year, since the new hair roots are just being formed and .without an adequate supply they cannot assimilate rich plant food. Many trees and shrubs have been killed by over - fertilizing at planting time. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffdSee that the tree' stands two inches higher than \" the mark that'shows the nursery planting depth; this will allow for sat- tling. - \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd - \\. Fill the hole with water. When the water has settled1, firm the rest of the soil in place. Leave the top layer of soil slightly concave with a small ridge or lip at the margin of the hole to help later watering. Deep, thorough soaking rather than *Te- quent surface watering gives the best results. Trees should be pruned to remove broken branches. Severe pruning to compensate for, root loss is u- sually unnecessary- for shade trees transplanted from nursery grown stock. If the tree has t been dug from the bush or not properly trained! at the nursery it may be necessary to prune out some of the weaker'branches or those that cross andi to shorten some lower ones. Y - , ;\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd-.-'*..:.._'*-. * 7'--'\"-:'i Each tree should be firmly guyed or supported by means of. an- upright post driven into the ground parallelto the trunk. Care should be exercised to prevent the post from' injuring the root 'system.Attach the tree to the post with guy wire threaded through with a piece of rubber hose. The first two years after- planting, are the most critical in the : establishment of a newly planted tree. Moisture' availability is the chief factor. During dry spells deep, penetrating watering is necessary. The use of black, polyethylene film as a mulch is a tried and inexpensive method of conserving soil moisture. Place the mulch around the tree arid tuck the edges under the sod to hold it in place.

A company- may' sue~:pr be sued without joining the share_iolders. A partnership is msso_ved by the death of bnfe of the partners. A.\/company has* perpetual existence (unless wwind up, or struck off the r records of the registr_tr of companies, etc.) and upon the death,\ufffd\ufffdof a member his\/shares form ^rt^liis estate to\" be ^sposed of according to his will, if he has one. Each partner is an agent of the firm and his partners tb make con-\" -tracts \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd:forY::' the 7 partnership business. Teacher reviews open class idea APPLICATION FOR A WATER LICENCE WATER ACT (Section 8) I, Evelyn Anna Vernori7 of R.R. No.. 1, Gibsons, B.C. hereby apply to the Comptroller of Water Rights for a licence to divert and use water out of Chaster Creek which flows South and 7 discharges into Strait of Georgia and give notice of my application to all persons affected. The point of diversion will be located near North East corner of Parcel C, D:L. 909, Gp. 1, N.W.D. The quantity of water to be divertedv is 10,000 g.a.d. during peak* periods of Chaster Creek. The purpose for which the water will be used is \"Reservoir for new subdivision The land on which the water will be used is West portion of Parcel C, D.L. 909, Gp. 1, N.W.D. A copy of Ithis application was posted on the 3rd October, 1968, at the proposed point of diversion and on the land where the water is to Ibe used and two copies were filed in the office of the Water Recorder at Vancouver, B.C. Objections to this application may be filed with the said Water Recorder or with the Comptroller of Water \"Rights, Parliament Buildings, Victoria, B.C., within thirty days of the first date of publication of the application. EVELYN A. VERNON First date of publication is: Nov. 21, 1968. The fallowing additional sum- ririaiti6ri' has been provided' by one of the. teachers: What in summary are some of the more important features, of the open area?',: The focus in education today is on the individual. The aim is to have each chilS really interested and personally ' Ii-volved in challenging .' learning situations in a setting free of the fear of failure, or being kept back and of being thought stupid. The open area lends itself to this approach. Children are grouped informally, grade barriers are absent. Children can be regrouped to suit a variety of learning situations \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd large groups, small groups, one child to one group \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd with remarkable ease, so that their real needs can be met, particularly in the very important areas of skill development in the basic subjects of the language arts and arithmetic. This ease of movement and the accessibility \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd of the library \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd right in the open area \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd adds excitng new dimensions to the learning process in the elementary school. Children can undertake individual -study assignments on their own, finding the information they need in the library, only a carpeted step away. Thus they can develop the attitude and skills necessary for independent study, the hallmark of the fully fledged student. With no walls dividing the groups, is noise distracting? Very \"seldom it would seem. Children quickly develop a responsible attitude toward the relative freedom of the open area and faced with challenging learning situations aire generally absorbed in their own work and unaware of the low hum of purposeful activity that goes on around them. assists Principal Malcolm B. Mac- tavish of Roberts Creek Elementary school informed the school board at its last meeting that the Introductory Training Alphabet in use at the-school is producing better readers. This year's fourth grade readers are better than those of last year, he said. The ITA system aid\ufffd\ufffd the basic phonetic structure resulting in better programming for better reading and' writing, and develops a more active enjoyment, in reading, making the child want to read arid explore words on his own. Pender Harbour Ratepayers association replying to the letter from the board laying down the policy that there is no transportation by bus for kindergarten children, \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd maintained the Pender Harbour people paid more taxes than did Gibsons or Sechelt and should receive eon- s_deratian. The board replied there would be no change in policy. Supt. of Schools R. R. Hanna recommended that the board! develop the Family life Education in district schools*. Trustees agreed that it should go ahead. _N SzZZZZZZZCraCKle ... hey! See the light. You'll find ELECTRIC CONTRACTORS fast in the YELLOW PAGES. Where your fingers do the walking.

A partnership may extend the scope of its business at will so long as all the partners consent. A company cannot engage in some business other than that specified in the documents by -which it was formed and it makes no difference that all the shareholders consent to such an undertaking.

The Gallery shop at Sechelt, the Arts council's showcase for crafts and paintings, has a special Christmas display of work. by favorite Sunshine Coast artists. The desire to own an original painting is growing, but large canvases are expensive. Sympathizing with the number of people who, visiting the Gallery, look longingly and wistfully at paintings which are priced beyond their means the Gallery committee has commissioned a collection of small paintings, modestly priced (under $20) for that special Christmas gift. The collection includes work of several well-known and popular artists, Irene Anderson, Doris Crowston, Jo Michie, Eleanor Ormirod, Trudy Smale and Kay Wells as well as sepia sketches by a new-comer to the district, Charles Murray, formerly of West Vancouver, also a summer visitor from Victoria, Marguerite McLelland. The range of subjects and media is wide oils, pastels, wa- tercolors, velvets, acrylics, portraits, florals, land and seascapes, traditional and contem porary. New collections of handcrafted jewelry by Mrs. Nan Ritchie of Davis Bay and the pottery-ceramics of Lila Cars- well and Jo Gibson of Sechelt have been received. Array delights Sunday's open house at Lissi- Land Florist, was largely attended by a steady stream of guests who were delighted with the artistic array of Christmas gifts and floral arrangements. An additional attraction was a showing of paintings by Mrs. Jessie Morrison. Lorraine and Bob Heard, the gracious hosts, were assisted by Mrs. Ken Watson, Mickie Gregory, Margaret Townsend of New Westminster and Margaret Bob in charge of the refreshments. Many favorable comments were expressed on the originality of the beautiful table arrangements, iSiwags, Christmas wreaths and corsages created by Mrs. Heard and Mrs. Gregory.

I recently accepted a secretarial position at a local hospital and will not' be\" covered for unemployment insurance. For the recordj I have worked on a full-time permanent basis from 1953 to 1957 in insurable employment. Will you kindly let me know what my benefit position will be should I now become unemployed. A. To establish' a benefit period you must have paid at least 30 contribution weeks in the qualifying period of 104 weeks immediately prior to your claim eight of which must have been in the 52 weeks prior to your claim. The qualifying periods can be. extended to a maximum of 208 weeks because of employment in non-insurable employment. As ,you have not worked in insurable employment since 1957,, you do not meet the requirements, therefore, you are not entitled to benefit. _,-sr^-\ufffd\ufffdt. - COAST NEWS READ AFAR From out of the blue comes a Oh-ustotnas Card job to be done for a Fort McPherson, Northwest Territories Coaist News reader.

GOVERNMENT OF BRITISH COLUMBIA Department of Finance Parliament Buildings, Victoria, British Columbia (POTATO POWER Canada's Food Guide recommends you eat one serving of potatoes daily. Do you know why?,It is because potatoes are important contributors to the day's requirements of vitamin C and iron, as well as being good sources of energy. One medium-sized potato, if properly cooked, will supply nearly half of the daily requirement of vitamin C. Potatoes also retain a high percentage of minerals and vitamins when boiled or baked in their skins.

Having attended political meetings in B.C. since early 1907 I cannot ,help (but state how unusual it is to find a member of the government displaying courage enough to speak as he, did instead of the customary bally-hoo in support of his party. I am reminded of the night the all candidate meeting was held here in Gibsons. I watched Paul's actions carefully and felt that he was putting on a real good act,, his words and actions conforming beautifully. Following the meeting I discussed said actions with friends of mine who are Liberals. His opening remarks in the house shows how well he heeded the advice given him by an old rancher friend \"for God's sake don't promise anything.\" My main reason for writing these few lines is to express the hope that we may find more honest expressions given voice in our legislative chambers. B.C. could stand lots of it. I rather think the customary policy of watching for any petty detail to find fault with the party not of our choice will not be the best policy to get ourselves out of the mess we're in. So here's hoping that during the present session we shall see some more common sense trotted out,. rather than pure op position. May I conclude by saying, Bravo Paul St. Pierre. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffdDave Rees \/ . Editor: An important feature of the well-run and well-administered school district of Squamish is the close communication between the members of Squarish School Board and the public. In the Sechelt School District, however, such close com- (munication between the School Board and the taxpayer appears ,to be almost totally non-existent. School Board policies and operations are confusing or unintelligible to many residents. It would seem that two errors ,7are mainly responsible for the -present communication gap. The ,Board holds all its monthly \ufffd\ufffd\ufffdmeetings in Gibsons in a room .^\ufffd\ufffd0 absurdly small that it can \".only' hold a few Board members and taxpayers at one time1. ,The cramped confines of this joom probably have, contributed much to the short-sighted and unimaginative actions taken by the Board since January. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffdDan Carr *imiWmmmQmmmM:MmmimmiimWiiii*:mi9i\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd 48* \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd 48* \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd 48* 48* ...ac 48* 48* 48* \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd 48* of every lion \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd 45* \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd 45* 48* 48* \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd *\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd 48* \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd 45* \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd 45* : 48* \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd ALL AT CITY PRICES Now is the time to do your Christmas Shopping and take advantage of our LAY-AWAY PLAN PARKER'S HARDWARE Ltd.

The actual loss experience on loans for the year was $2,018,-. 313 less than the related amount provided in other operating expenses based on the five-year' \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd'\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\" average, thus enabling this amount to'be added to reserves, In all, direct transfers and reversals of< provisions enabled reserves or accumulated appropriations to be increased by $33,718,591 to $108,569,775. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd Dividend. payments amounted Yto $17,617,500 (58 cents a share), an increase of 11.5% over the previous year.

B.C.'S RED CEDARS Down through the centuries cedar has been the willing servant of man since Hiram rafted cedars of Lebanon to Tyre. For Interior finish, British Columbia red cedar is probably one of the most beautii-ul woods in existence. Its value for shakes and shingles has been confirmed throughout the centuries. Red cedars grow to great heights, from 150 to 200 feet, with diameters of from six to ten feet or more. Cedar is very light in weight, with straight and even \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd grain. There is seldom a trace of resin in the wood, though it possesses a natural oil which acts as a preservative. Cedar wood is readily identified by its distinct and pleasing aromatic odor.

KEITH AND RUTH BAKER iMYSTERIOUS WIND One windy, but sunny day when my parents had gone visit-, ing, a sudden strong wind stirred. At this particular time I happened to be outside. Mysteriously I raised into the air. Higher and higher. I couldln't get down! Nothing else came up with me! There up in the sky I saw a tremendous cloud. As soon as I was above it the wind stopped and I fell on the cloud. It was like a dream! There before my eyes were riches, gold, a marble house, and last of all a golden horse. I walked up to him. He snorted and reared1 then flew. I didn't understand at first until I saw a giant appear. \"At last!\" said he7 \"I have found you at last.\" As he came for me I dodged. The giant slipped and fell from the cloud- That was the last I saw of him. The golden horse landed lightly. I climbed on his back. Powerfully he carried me back to his home in the cloud. I never got home and I don't think I ever will. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd Jo-Anne Jorgenson, Gibsons Elementary School. THE MYSTERY I NEVER SOLVED One night as I was watching television^and the family had gone out there was a frightening noise upstairs. It was a moaning noise. I had never heard it before so was very scared. It continued for five minutes sol decided to find out what it was. I crept quietly up the stairs, the perspiration drippng from my face. AH of a sudden as I neared the top of the stairs my door began to creak. It had never done this before so I was terrified. I couldn't just run downstairs and Jet this mysterious thing continue all night, so I tiptoed into my bedroom and before I knew it the door slammed shut. I ran and looked out my window. On the lawn there was a ring of burnt grass. Thoughts ran through my mind like they had never done before. After a while the noise faded but I still couldn't forget it\/In anr hour or so when things were normal again I grew tired and could not wait any longer for the family to return. So I crawled into my bed. In the morning when I woke up I decided.not to tell my parents what happened because they will just say it was my imagination. But I will always know that it was not. And maybe some day later; on it might come back. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd Sharon Johnson, Madeira Park Elementary School. THE HATS MR. JONES SOLD One day Mr. Jones went to his garden to plant flowers. Day alter day he went out for a walk. One day he went to see if his flowers were blooming. But when he got to his garden he was shocked. He. said to himself, \"Those aren't flowers, they're hats!\" He took then- home puzzled. When he got home,he waited until the next day to sell his1 hats; He went to bed and fell asleep. Next morning he put his hats into his living room. When one customer came he bought a hat. He was very happy and told the other men that Mr. Jones was selling hats. The men all went to buy a hat from Mr. Jones. When Mr. Jones was out of hats he closed his house and went for a trip down town. He spent some of his money'to buy some food. A week afiter it was rainy. Some of the men that bought the'hats from Mr. Jones went but for a meeting. But when they got outside their haits turned into flowers. They thought that they were double-crossed. They went to see Mr. Jones-about the hats. They told Mr. Jones what had happened. So Mr. Jones gave them each another hat, but they too turned into flowers1, so Mr. Jones gave them their money back. \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd Gilbert, Sejchelt Residential School.

FAJHICN NEW\/ It's no longer necessary to have a home with a view to have a window with a view. Laminated window shades can make decorator-capital even of a window facing a blank wall! They help elimina'tj. draughts in winter and hot sun in the summer. And you can use them with or without draperies. Sometimes the window is outlined with a border of matching fabric. If you want both you may use the same fabric, or pick a contrasting material for the drapes. Solid-colored shades can be tied into the room's decor by applying cut-out fabric designs or bands of ribbon. Closely woven cottons are the best fabrics for appliques. There Us practically no limit to the different effects you can achieve. It's almost impossible to quote prices on these decorator shades because the cost depends upon the size of the shade, the type (room-darkening Exlite is the most popular) and the cotton fabric you ' choose.

The evidence is in two parts: 1. Coal tar derivitives cari be used to cause cancer in experimental animals. This is a fact easily demonstrated and well- documented, and there are coal tar derivitives in cigarette smoke. 2. Statistically it has been shown that a higher percentage of lung cancer comes from those in the population who aire heavy smokers than from those who are non-sihokers. Of perhaps even more importance than the relationship between cigarette-smoking and liing cancer is the relationship between cigarette-smoking and health in general. Several studies implicate cigarette- smoking in many other health situations. Some of these are coronary artery disease, arterial disease in general, leg pains, digestive disturbances, stomach ulcers, and respiratory problems such as emphysema and bronchitis. The heavy smoker who, through injury or disease, requires an anaesthetic, is considered a greater surgical risk than the non-smoker. The smoker will probably be in more danger during his sleep and will have a less comfortable course after. In summary, the C.M. A. reports that doctors today believe that cigarette-smoking constitutes a definite health hazard. COAST NEWS WANT ADS Phone 886-2622 UP TO 3 p.m. TUESDAY what's your pleasure ? Lucky in bottles?

Free trade would help McGeer says .,10 Coast News, Nov. 28, 1968. !i^-i@\ufffd\ufffd>@@@ge--E@^^ Pat McGeer, MLA and leader of British Columbia's liberal party spoke to businessmen at a luncheon in Gibsons on Wedness- day of last week and outlined - financial affairs of the present government and presented a pos siible cure for some of the problems that faced the province. Mr. McGeer explained that he was on a fact-finding tour to enable him to become acquainted with B.C. problems andi at the sarnie time offer some idea's of the Liberal party. He figured1 that the population of ;the province would double in 20 years bringing with it a set of municipal and school board problems. This meant that the Liberal party should be trying to assemble new policies for a new government. One thing he urged was the removal of trade barriers. There was nothing more important for this province. Manufacturing was arrested because of trade barriers. He was a vigorous spokesman for free trade. East- _ ern Canada was less courageous ~ than the west as it preferred protection and with the present balance of political power protection stays. Lately he has been finding more free trade friends ant. as a result a North American free trade area has become new official policy. Many Canadians recognize the value of free trade and the present federal government also supports this view. The problem is that it is not being taken seriously elsewhere in Canada* British Columbia is the third largest province in Canada and its characteristics make it a leader. The weakness of Brtish Colum bia's government rests outside the province. He referred to the absence of the premier from important national meetings and what he does and says when he does appear at. them. Mr\/ McGeer said he' wanted to see a British Columbia with influence outside the province equal to its importance in its position in the Canadian \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd- Explaining government financing he said that last year's revenues Twere'the basis for the next year's budget and the surpluses were never held' as such but werey ^diverted to special funds and such.cash was used to purchase bonds whichsomehow found their7 W-iy in hydiro projects. Her cited thecase of the teachers'#pensio^ which was us^^ purchase of low interesihydrb bonds instead -of\"the better priced ventures on the open market or Ynsed for school- and!1 municipal^purposes. Schools and^municipalities were unable to borrow jaioney because of the drift ^^fai-ids to hydro affairs. They find government financial resources which they could use to ibeVery limited. On the housing situation he was not sure that money was the problem. The province should establish a mortgage fund of its own and this matter was now under consideration of the \ufffd\ufffd.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd. Liberal party.
