Far greater than any ferry, traffic or trucks question, is the water situation in this village. Headlands needs water. But what is just now coming to light in certain quarters of our population is the fact that the old .part of the village is in equal need. Figures on the pending water bylaw are still not clear - a very rough guess will place the cost at $50,000. This will be divided in such a way that more recent parts of the village will have to pay for new pipe installed in that particular part while less Avill be paid by the original village owing to that part already having its main feeder pipes installed. Few will really object to this. The older village has already paid for its distribution system. It would hardly be fair to ask it to pay the cost of buying distribution pipes to be laid along various streets In the new areas. This will lighten the old villager's load and place the heavier portion where it rightfully belongs. In deepening of the main reservoir, installation of a larger pipe to replace the cannery pipe, repairs to the lower reservoir \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD and installation of new mains with which to serve the village, \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDcosts will be even'ly distributed over a period of years. There is no doubt the water supply now \"enjoyed\", by the ' -.village is hardly good enough. Gar Jens are going dry, lawns are dieing, housewives go to the tap and find nothing coming out - and it will get worse. The troubles with the water setup js not temporary. They are the results of old age and overgrowing. Both these will increase with every week that passes. v It has been said that $50,000 is far too much, just to give water to a few people along the bay. Nothing could be further from the truth. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\" * , . ( $50,000 will be spent in such a way that every single person \"in the v.'llage of Gibsons will be assured of water in sufficient \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD supply for at least the foreseeable future. There can be, and there niust not.be any talk of, let Headlands pay for the water, they want it. Headlands and 685 should no more be charged for the complete cost of new cannery pipe and the many other important renovations to be made, than Gibsons should be charged for all .the Sechelt Pen:.nsula highway. , - When the water bylaw is placed before you this fall. Let mo question of sectionalism or petty dislikes or plain lack of knowledge interfere with your decision to place an affirmative vote on the little piece of paper. If you are in doubt about the costs and values and relative help this planned bylaw will be to each of you individually. Drop a line to this paper following annoucement of the bylaw, and we will do our best to clear the most important question ^ever to face this village. . When the time comes \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD be sure you buy water for yourselves^ for, tomorrow.

Assuming the Sechelt Highway runs north and south, a bus has the habit of parking on the east side about a bus length from this corner. At the same time an automobile parks on the opposite side just /back of the \"No Parking\" sign. This can be seen every day.. The effect of this is to re duce the width of the highway to an extent that a car coming around the corner from the village and gathering speed to negotiate the hill, is forced out into the centre of the road to, risk colliding with a down coming car that is also forced into the centre because of the parked ear. The risk of hitting a pedestrian also applies as he too is forced to walk in the centre of the road. If an accident occurs the driver will probably have to take the blame. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD A Visitor. The atomic bomb may mean the end unless we make a new beginning. BY CHERRY WHITAKER There must be an easier out- ' let for creative endeavor than writing. I^hink I'll try painting, .x.the interior decorating kind. On second thought maybe I'd better not. Just remembered that I dropped the paint tin the last time that urge for new and shiny walls hit me. The tin was three-quarters full. Green-hair is rather unbecoming to any but the very young, and there is something about perching atop a . ladder that starts me thinking about how itchy \"a plaster cast must be when it's hot\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDthe weather. Dressmaking must be a vejy satisfactory occupation. To turn a few yards of material into something that gets wis- tled at. It's something I can get very enthusiastic about \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD whenever I get lost in tfie yard-goods dept of any store. In fact I can turn out some extremely attractive things \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD that is as long as I am not allowed to cut the material or sew it together. Somewhere between my intentions and the finished product peeular things happen. In fact they start happening immediately the . pattern is spread out on the floor. You think the floor is not quite the place for a pattern? Possibly not, but I have found those pieces of fragile tissue have wills of iron. They like it on the floor and lacking the leadership qualities necessary for persuading them their place is on a table, I have found it more satisfactory for us all to start out on the floor together. A useless concession on my part. The A, B, C, D and E's of that pattern ;may know -what they are doing but it's a certainty ^ don't.. Even; now^: I could puV my hand on three collars and a sleeve that didn't seem. to belong anywhere after I finished making nightgowns for the small daughter. Cutting the pattern is only the first round of a losing battle. It's very disconcerting to find that sewing pyjama pant-legs together, the wrong way, makes them a little awkward to wear. And it's positively uncanny the way a supposedly straight seem can zig and zag. No, I think it would be well to leave dressmaking to the experts, and confine any sewing ambitions to patching denims. The patches don't stay in long enough for enyone to notice whether they are zige:ed, zagged \"or straight. Gardening, would be a rewarding outlet. But there are two main requisitites ultimate success. Green thumbs and a sympathetic understanding of the ways. of worms and aphis. T have thumbs, but they aren't green and. I think I have too many. Worms are very interesting citizens. They plough around underground doing useful things to the soil and they make appetizing lunches for the birds, but somehow I feel unhappy in close proximity- to them. As for aphis, extensive research leads me to believe, that lacking green thumbs, a stiff course in guerilla warfare is essential.

Ah wheel, 'twas a happy thought while doing the thinking, but for practical considerations it might be well to stick ; o words. Thiey can be coaxed to do what'is'-required. They can be pushed around, rearranged, chopped up, added to, thrown out or lost in dozens of languages, but there is a lot of satisfaction to be gained the few times they say exactly what they -are supposed to say. Let the painters paint, the dessmaker sew and the green thumbs garden. I can-see that I shall have to sit- back admiring them and writing about them. What a life!

This idea can serve a two fold purpose according to the committeev in charge.^of arrangements: It will add to the beauty of the scene, also give the smaller children an opportunity for a ring side seat during the ceremony to be performed on the wharf.

M. Maclntyre, M.L.A. The story reported Mr. Mac lntyre as saying, \"Couples with a total income of $100 a month or less need not pay hospital insurance. \"When in receipt of the B.C. Hospital Insurance bill, simply write a statement to the effect that your income is $100 or less per month, and you will hear no more about \"if.\" Many residents of the Peninsula took the impression that Mr. Maclntyre and the paper meant that hospital \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD benefits would be received in \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD spite of non-payment of pre- miiurns.

'Following is the crux of the 'letter received in reply from Tthe Department. \" I think you will .appreciate \"the concern experienced by the Service over the statement which you published recently.

We'll glance at current pension payment rates as they compare with present-day requirements for food, clothing, shelter, etc., In other words, how much does a pensioner receive, and is it enough to live on ? We must first disregard pensioners who are ^gainfully employed and able to augment their - government payments with earnings. That is a vast question, but one which necessary takes second place to the problem of persons unable to work and dependent solely on pension payments and additional assistance. The 100 per cent pensioner \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDwhether he works or not\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD currently receives 125 dollars * a month if he is married, 94 dollars if single. This scale is based on labourers pay in Eastern Canada, the standard for all pension payments. It compares with the most recent average industrial wage as follows: married pensioner's monthly cheque, 125 dollar; average wage 45 dollars a week or roughly 200 dollars a month \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD a difference of 75 dollars. Basic weekly foodcost for a family of four \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD again the latest available figure \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD 25 dollars, 95 cents. Rent of course varies, and you will have as ready an estimate as I have. But a recent Canadian Legion survey gives the figure 40 dollars a month as absolute minimum. We might go on and detail clothing requirements, fuel and light, furnishings, comforts of a \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDniscellaneous nature., .but already we have exceeded the pensioner's ready source of : income with just food and shelter! A month's basic diet for a family of four is over 100 dollars. We can consider an absolute minimum for fewer people of 75 dollars. Therefore, our pensioner pays 115.dollars a month for his roof L.

Following the \"nil,\" report on his department by Water Commissioner James Hall, Mrs. Nestman advised she had, on her own initiative and in view of the serious water shortage, stopped all sprinkling, \"at least until the rains come.\" Clerk Robert Burns reported on leaks on the main line along the government road from Bal's Hall to Standard Motors No. 2.

In B.C., the rates paid to different hospitals depend mainly upon two main factorss I. the services given. i 2. the facilities available. ' \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD In some cases, smaller hospitals do not have the facilities to treat the more complex cases. As a result, they send the patients requiring more extensive care to a larger hospital which has the necessary facilities. Since the maintenance of these extra facilities is something the smaller hospitals do not have to contend with or normally require, they receive a lower rate than those paid to the larger hospitals in the larger areas where there is a* constant demand for these extra facilities. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD '\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD \"Why has the rate gone from $6 in 1948 to $13.60 in one of the larger Vancouver hospitals?\" is a question often asked. ~ , . . In the first place, the charge of $6 was for room, board and nursing service only. In addition, the average charge per patient for X-rays, operating room, drugs, medicines* bandages and other additional services was $4 per day, making a total of $10 per day. Municipal and provincial per diem grants of seventy cents each per patient day averaged $1.10 per day and brought the actual payment in 1948 up to $11.10 a day. (Municipal per diem grants apply only to municipal residents hospitalized). The difference of $2.50 a day between 1948 and now is due to the increased cost of wages and supplies. In considering the rates paid to hospitals, one point can not be repeated too much\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD the daily rate paid on behalf of the patient in B.C. is all-inclusive. In most hospitals outside of B.C., the rate charged is for bed, board and nursing service only, and then extra charges are added for all the other services. In B.C., the daily rate pays for all these services and in the vast majority of cases, there are no extra charges. The fact that B.C.H.I.S. payments are all-inclusive must always be kept in mind when comparisons are made with hospitals outside of B.C. In B.C., our rates range up to a high of $13.60 per day. Accounts paid by B.C.H.I.S. in other provinces and countries show that rates range as high as $25 per day. Generally speaking, we in B.C. stretch our hospital dollar as far as, if not farther than any other area on this continent.
