' 2 8 viaoioiA AHvaan avio^iAOHd by Jack Scott CATS, CATS, CATS IN THE last two years our de ceptively placid grey cat, Cluny, has methodically presented us with litter after litter of quintuplets, all of which have spent their early life in a wooden box labelled \"Caledonia Brand Fancy Pink Salmon.' By persistent salesmanship I have managed to get rid of all these kittens and on stormy nights when the wind is howling outside and there is a cheery fire in the grate I like to lie back in my Oriental dressing gown and think of all those cats, roaming the back alleys of the metropolis, purring in the laps of a hundred tiny old ladies, breeding and producing, knocking over Ming vases and making life a living hell for the poor suckers who took them. Before Cluny came into my life I used io boasi thai cats made me \"creepy\" (spasmodic flexing of ihe shoulder blades) and thai, anyway, cats suck your breath when you're asleep. They don'i of course, or, at least, ihe 14 or 16 assorted cats who have slepi al lhe bottom of my bed during the last couple of years, have not shown any such macabre inclination. Truth is that a cat, right from the moment it's born, is just about as sensible and charming an animal as you could hope to meet. At the moment, as I write this at home, there are five kittens in the fancy pink salmon box at my feet. They are about three weeks old and they are having a fine time pawing each other. Now, if you had live pups there (and Lord knows we've had that, too) they'd all be breaking their necks to get out. I am a dog man myself, but it is only honest reporting to acknowledge that a cat of any age has about nine times the sense that a dog ever has. , . Ii jusl happens we have a pup in the house/ too. We always have something. Last week we had a wren fly in the living room. Bui that's another story. This pup is named Jim and he replaced Andrew (or Annie, as ~ Monday, September Filth, Nineteen Forty-nine Who Should Be Licensed . . .the dog or the owner? A MEMBER of the British parliament has proposed in the house of commons that hereafter licenses be issued, not to dogs, but to the owners thereof. The idea is that a dog license should not be handed out annually to anyone who can plank down the fee, but only to those who are found fit to care for a pet properly. Such licenses would be permanent unless revoked for cause. It is a somewhat remarkable idea but fundamentally sound. Half the trouble caused by dogs is the Price of Success . . . ONE OF the^most thought-provoking of all valedictory addresses is in that given to graduates of the Alexander Hamilton Institute recently: \"I often wonder what it is that brings one man success in life, and what it is that brings mediocrity or failure to his brother,. The difference can't be in mental capacity; there is not the difference in our mentalities indicated by the difference in performance. In short, I have reached the conclusion that some men succeed because they cheerfully pay the price of success, and others, tho they may claim ambition and a desire to succeed, are unwilling to pay that price. And the price is: \"To use all your courage to force yourself to concentrate on the problem in hand, to think of it deeply and constantly, to study it from all angles, and to plan: \"To have a high and sustained determination to put over what you plan to accomplish, fault of owners. The wandering,. boisterous, destructive dog is nearly always &n ill-trained or pampered dog. The ugly dqg-is usually a dog that has been abused. Obviously, then, the dog nuisance would be materially abated at once if persons who had no desire or capacity to train or properly care for a dog were .denied the privilege of owning them. The English member's idea has merit. Perhaps it could be incorporated into this district's dog legislation with considerable advantage to everybody. and the time to begin to pay it not if circumstances be favorable to its accomplishment, but in spite of all adverse circumstances which may arise\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDand /'nothing worth while has ever been acomplished without some obstacles having been overcome. \"To refuse to believe that there are any circumstances sufficiently strong to defeat you in the accomplishment of your purpose. , \"Hard? I should say so. That's why so many men never attempt to acquire success, answer the siren call of the rut and remain on the beaten paths that are for beaten men. Nothing worth while has ever been achieved without constant endeavor, some' pain and constant application of the lash of ambition. \"That's the price of success as I see it. And I believe every man should ask himself: Am I willing to endure the pain of this struggle for the comforts and the rewards and the glory that go with achievement? Or shall I accept the uneasy and inadequate contentment that comes with mediocrity? Am I willing to pay the Price of Success?\" Unnecessary Ornamentation .. .why is it done? THE APPOINTMENT;, of Dr. Arthur Beau- chesne to the newly-created post of \"special advisor to parliament\" at a salary of $10,000 a year looks from here like a flagrant waste of public money. Dr. Beauchesne is said to be Canada->ri foremost authority on parliamentary procedure. This dizzy eminence was attained while he was clerk of the house of commons, a position from which he has now retired. If it is necessary and desirable to pension Dr. Beauchesne, why not do it openly in so many words? \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD s- If it is necessary to retain his services as an authority on parliamentary procedure, it is obvious that the present clerk and the new speaker are or will be inadequate in their jobs.

The increase is considerable: from $15 to $21 for single persons; from $24 to $30 for a couple; and from $30 to $33 for a group of any number of dependents. A loi of people are wondering if the government didn't deliberately set the rates too low, as a come-on io ihe voters in an election year. It certainly would appear this way. The public somehow got hospital insurance, which was pleasant at the first low rates, and the three percent sales tax, which was unpleasant, linked together. They figured that the three percent tax would take care of any deficits in hospital insurance. Cabinet ministers never discouraged this belief.7 It comes as a shock, therefore, to' find that not one cent Qf the sales tax is going to help out on ^ hospital insurance. / The government must have known last May that the _ibs-< pital insurance plan was running in the red. Yet not one word/was breathed about this on the hustings. Cabinet ministers and gov ernment supporters ran abput the hustings boasting of a nice cheap hospital insurance.

We were very fortunte recently in being introduced to a lady from Alberta who complimented us on this little paper. Apparently the weekly news sheet is nothing new there and she thought for the size of the area we really had a good one. Look at our editorials ... we have a wonderful weapon in our hands with this paper. We can boost our community and also if we maintain a fearless policy we can adjust a lot of wrongs. There is one thing we would like to see: this paper, take up the cudgels for the old veterans of World War I who, through no fault of their own, are not eligible for WVA. Remember how these men so cheerfully enlisted and who landed eventually on Salisbury Plain or some other places, where they spent the .-.\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDwinter under canvas > with a ground sheet and two blankets? For that reason we are glad to see Robbie once more writing for us. He has always been a champion of veterans' causes and our editor is a veteran, and so we have a mighty fine chance of getting something done. Another one of our young veterans had to leave his little family to go in search of work in Vancouver. We understand Graham Collison has had to do that. Surely there could have been something here for him? He was trying to make his home here, is well educated and popular too. Something really lacking on our part, we are afraid. We should see that they get preference in any jobs going. Betsy Lumsden really gave a good account of Pro-Rec and especially as regards to Sechelt, when she was on the radio recently speaking from Vancouver. Give the local Pro-Rec all the support you can this coming session.

Mr. Mydska came up for his usual busman's holiday, on account of his wife's sickness. He missed his tuna fishing run, so consoled himself with a few trips around the bay, and as usual, picked up a few salmon and scores of trout. His daughter, who usually spends two weeks here, changed her program this year, by going down to the States for the better part of her holiday, spending only three or four days here. She hopes to go to Squamish before returning to work. Peninsula Agents for BC. AIR LINES LTD. PROMPT SERVICE COURTEOUS PILOTS For Reservations PHONE 66 or 66W PENINSULA CABS B.C.

MARY W. RENNIE TODAY as I watched some of the summer visitors getting aboard the \"Lady Alexandria\" on their homeward trip to take up the old familiar routine again, I had a feeling of regret that the summer season is nearly over. Each year the season seems to get shorter. However these lovely days we are having at present help to lengthen it. Here's hoping that the good weather extends over Labour Day for the sake of the folks who will be taking the advantage of the long weekend. Among the young folks who are sorry that the holidays are nearly over are Jimmie and Barbara Scott of Brighouse, who have been visiting with their aunt and uncle Mr. and Mrs. David Bates for some weeks. Mr. and Mrs. McAlpine have returned home after a holiday of two or three weeks. Their granddaughter \"Jackie\" Moore is visit- ing them at present. Mr. and Mrs. Mil-burn with their three children are at present the guests of Mr. and Mrs. Frank, parents of Mrs. Millburn, at Soames Point. Mrs. Ian Martin of Victoria with her two small children are visiting with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. Banks. Mrs. Docker has returned home after a week;s visit at Powell River, with her son Jack and his wife. Mr. and Mrs. Seymour Johnston entertained Mr. and Mrs. Glover from West Vancouver, who prolonged their visit because of the lovely trout they were supplied with. Mr. G*eorge Bell was the generous fisherman. Quite a number of us are enjoying an odd trout or grilse now and again, thanks to Mr. Bell's generosity. Mr. and Mrs. Brand were the guests of Mrs. Workman at the weekend. Among the guests at the Guest House this week were Mr. and Mrs. Botton, Mr. and Mrs. Bailey, Mr. and Mrs. A. G. Reid, Mr. and- Mrs. Glen Reid all of Vancouver. Mr. Percy McDermot who was > 7, here for part of his vacation from p> - Costa Rica, C.A., also'Miss J. G. Hunter, Mr. Chelderhose and Mr. p - Vaughn Moore. Mr. Moore has ^ just returned from a trip east, s' which occupied six weeks. Dur- ' ing that time he visited at Tor- ^ onto, New York, Chicago and at 7 Banff and Lake Louise. We were sorry to hear of the / accident Mrs. Slinn had the other *'' day. Evidently she put her foot % \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD in a hole in the ground and ; turned over on her ankle caus- ; ing a multiple fracture. We hope she will soon be able to get ar- ' ; ound again. . * Mr. and Mrs. Walsh and fam- ^ ily have made a change of resi- X? dence. They are now settled at & \"Resthaven\" owned by Mr. and ^ Mrs. Swanson. ''',_ By E. NESTMAN WELL, here's the end of August. We can soon start counting the days 'til Christmas. My news this week is going to be mighty slim; there's that lull in most everything right now, between times; fall meetings soon will be starting up, and then we hope to have news of winter activities. Off to the city and the exhibition were Ray and Sue Elliott and family; Jessie Leach and her two small ones; Mr. and Mrs. Jim Drummond, and numerous other Gibsonites. On the return coming home Mrs. Gray and Bev, Mrs. Elsie Herrin, Mr. and Mrs. Marsden, and ourselves; mighty weary looking and all glad to be home. Can't say I was enthused about the exhibition; as far as I'm concerned, it will be a long time before I bother with it again. It amazes me with all of B.C. to choose from, exhibits of plants and flowers are certainly slim. With all cactus gardens in B.C., the exhibit of them is disappointing\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDabout half a dozen, that was the extent of those exhibits. Wonder what it is\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDlack of interest, or complete indifference? One of the reasons I went to see flowers was for the cactus display, and I didn't see anything. There were some bulb begonias there, and they certainly didn't come up to our Mrs. Cor- lett's garden display here, or the display that Mr. Reeves had at our fair last year here. We could still show them how to grow flowers if we could get ours down there. prize at our county fair for his gardening abilities, supervised by his dad, of course. When notified he had been awarded a prize, he piped up with great delight, 'SGoody! Do I get a car?\" VON meeting of the auxiliary will be held at the home_of Mrs. McKibbon, Gibsons, September 12, at 8 p.m., for election of officers and plans for the bazaar to be held at Bal's Hall around first part of October.

The meetings are held every third Friday and prospective members are invited to attend these meetings and join the auxiliary. of themselves and wondering if they dare relax. It hasn't been such a bad summer, it's gone pretty swift to me; guess when you reach that certain age, the years really do roll by, and very little one can do to arrest their flight. So even though school is the most hateful place in the world to kids, it's going to take them a long time to realize it was the happiest days of their lives. Make the most of it, fellas, it will go fast enough. I know because I felt the same as you all do now; didn't like it a little bit, and it took me a long time to realize that the old folks knew What they talked about when they said that same thing to me. Well, this time next week it's Compound interest and adver- going to be mighty quiet around tising are very similar: the longer the Landing; children back to they are continued, the better school and mothers taking stock the results.

I hear that Vivian Wiren won a fourth prize for her rooster in the Exhibition; Ed Smith took the junior exhibits down, so it goes to show we could very well compete from up here and get into the picture.

So now I have to set to work and amalgamate them, so here goes. Our unit (PCMR Unit 276) of the Army, Navy and Air Force Veterans in Canada were hosts to the West Vancouver Unit. Past President Sid Hamilton and Secretary H. E. Warburton of the Provincial Command and Vice- President Perry Sanford of the Dominion Command joined the West Vancouver contingent who chartered a boat for a very enjoyable trip. Other guests included members from Vancouver Unit and Kingsway Unit. Expect we might possibly get a write-up in Maclean's Magazine as their representative, Mr. Ray Gardner, was also there. Unit President Francis Drage and Unit Secretary S. J. W. Adkins were empowered to dis pense with the business of the general meeting. After initiating eight new members, among them Lt. Col. B. M. (Batt) Maclntyre, MLA-elect. Col. Maclntyre was then installed as honorary president of Unit 276, and on behalf of the members of Unit 276 he presented a life membership medal to Past President Sid Hamilton. After the meeting a reception was neld for Col. and Mrs. Maclntyre. As the unit caterer was in Vancouver, the refreshments were in charge of Mrs. Dorothy Adamson. Thanks to F.D. and the P.R.O: of the West Vancouver Unit for the foregoing information. Hallmoon Bay By MURIEL WELSH I am still in Shaughnessy Hospital but Mrs. Bourne forwarded to me several small items and F.D. was good enough to add to them as well. It appears that there are very few campers left. I guess they are somewhat disappointed. Mr. and Mrs. Percy Rathbone of North Van have returned home after spending three weeks with their niece and nephew, Mr. and Mrs. Frank W. Alexander. Their place was taken by Miss Patricia Alexander, their daughter, and Albert (Chick) Lee. Chick is a young brother of Frank. I see the sylvan peace and quiet has once more descended on the island.

Very disgusted, they went on their way, turned the boat around, and when almost up to the spot where they lost the fish, Mr. Tchaiskowsky saw something shining in the water. He let out the darndest yell, leaned over the side and grabbed the flasher and line, and there was the fish struggling to fr.ee itslf. Well! He got the fish too! Mr. and Mrs. L.

He did this because he had a giant to do away with, but modern parents know that Jack was being very wasteful. Beans are fine food containing, among other things, plenty of proteins. They are a cheap and useful substittue for meat. Jack shouldn't have been so hasty with his axe. THE COAST NEWS, Monday, Sept. 5, 1949 7 By A.

S. Jackson's sister-in- law Mrs. H. McGee, wife of Maj. Harry McGee of Calgary, and their daughter Mrs. D. Davies and granddaughter Jacquelin. Mrs. McGee ana family lived in Scarborough, Yorkshire, England until joining Maj. McGee at Calgary last January. Mrs. McGee and Mrs. Davies are enjoying living by the open sea again, and Jacquelin has found a grand playmate In little Susan Forbes. A great deal of activity around Burns and Jackson Log Co.'s camp has been noticed this last week, as the company resumed operations again after the seasonal shutdown. Mrs. Henry Dutz and children are back home again after a visit with the Art Langley's at 83 Mile House in the Cariboo. Visiting with Mr. and Mrs. Reuben Stroshein^is Mr. Stros- hein's sister, Mrs. D. Duffy of Vancouver. It was back to school again for Roger and Ronald, twin sons of Capt. and Mrs. A. Johnston, when they returned to New Westminster to commence Junior High after spending the summer holidays with their parents at \"Rustic Cottage\" on Wilson Creek Road.* Mr. Stewart Henderson is actively busying himself around their place by the Post Office. We hope he is not taxing his strength too much after his long and severe illness. Better slow down a bit Stewart. What I believe to be the largest peaches grown on the Peninsula were harvested by Mr. Thos. Weaver, well known truck garden farmer of the district. SUMMER visitors who have just returned to Vancouver were Mr. and Mrs. C. A. Goddard and their daughter Bunny. Maida and Sheila McFaul were their guests at the new Erickson cottage \"Shenandoah.\" The novelty of clam-digging was enjoyed, also a fishing session with Don. Goldwell, who coached the girls so well that they brought back a nice salmon and a Ling cod. Don also caught a nine-pound salmon. . A pleasant surprise for Mrs. Goddard was to find Mrs. Bob Aylett an old school friend, living nearby at Wakefield Beach. Dr. and Mrs. A. S. Doyle of North Vancouver spent a pleasant vacation at Green Cottage in spite of the weather being dull and cool. Mrs. Rita Elliott also of North Vancouver was with them staying on later as house guest of Mrs. A. W. McRae. There has been great activity on the new De Pencier subdivision westward, small summer homes springing up during vac ations. Mr. and Mrs. Lane and family the Bill Murrays, Mr. and Mrs. Tait, and the Coldwell family already residing there, are already feeling like old-timers. Don went down to take part in the recent Salmon Derby and Mrs. Coldwell was also in the city visiting her daughter. FOOT COMFORT Good shoes and proper care of the feet are most important for health and comfort. Feet should be washed or given a brisk rub in cold water daily. Socks should be washed frequently to keep them soft. A change of socks after work is refreshing, and a change of both shoes and socks is imperative if the feet are wet.
