Gauntlet of having to go through voting for the bylaw again was thrown by Mr Bracewell in a hinted fashion. .. B. M. Maclntyre, MLA, has now aligned himself solidly with the Village by means of the following letter to Hon R. C. MacDonald, Minister of Municipal Affairs. \"I am indeed pleased to learn that your Department and the Commissioners of/the Village of Gibsons have completed the details necessary to include D.L. 685 and 686 into the Village. The Village Clerk has forwarded to me a copy of their bylaw was submitted and overwhelmingly passed on August 23, 1950, and certificate of health from the Provincial Government Health Officer is dated September 6. Certainly this discrepancy is of no particular importance when the date of actually-having the work done will still be sometime later. \ To put the Village to the expense of another1 bylaw and the same time annoy ratepayers would seem to be ridiculous.

TO_ rawan won What Stupidity ON THE evening of November 7. at approximately 6:35 there were 29 motor vehicles on the Gibsons wharf, nine of these were heavy duty trucks\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDthere were no lights on the wharf, trucks and taxis and private cars were backing back and forth, children and parents were trying to manoeuver on foot. Need we add to the\" stupidity of this by going further into detail? Taxis were squeezed hard against the spot where the Machigonne gangplank was due' to lay. We suggest the Sea Bus Lines supply a platform for these vehicles or widen the gangplank, they then could park right on the vessel or on the gangway itself. It seems that will be the only way to stop blocking the passage for passengers who would desire to travel by some other means. To further add to confusion in the dark, a huge bus was parkeG within seven feet of the gangplank. No one would be surprised to see a Vancouver barge trying to get into the act. Sechelt has something along the same trouble, only redeeming feature there, is that few people can guess within four hours when the Gulf Lines will arrive, this means a certain percentage go home in disgust. The Gibsons Board of Trade delegated Mr T. R. Godfrey to look into the matter of zoning on the wharf. Harbour Master C. P. Smith approved of \"any plan that will answer the problem.\" That was sometime early this summer. Nothing has yet been done. Yet the situation on the wharf is getting every day more serious. Wanted\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDNew Faees COAST News columnist, Aries, had something in a recent column which struck a familiar note. Said Aries, \"Younger people should go to political meetings and take more interest. All we ever see are the same old faces and hear the same old suggestions.\" Hearty endorsation from every thinking person on the Peninsula should be accorded this lady for her remark. Liberal rallies are the strongest and most frequent. The CCF and Conservatives find birth from the breath of a nearing election. We presume Aries means Liberal conventions and rai-' lies. It matters little what political party holds the meeting. It is always the same old chaff. If the Liberals have the meeting they listen to James Sinclair tell them he is doing something for the Peninsula. He built the Roberts Creek wharf at the cost of hundreds of thousands of dollars and one boat sometimes calls in there sometimes once a week. We hear about that faux paus every trip. Only with Jimmy telling it we have a colored version. B. M. Maclntyre, MLA, is called to the rallying post every few months, and Batt, being new in this game, tries to give as clear and concise a picture as it is possible for him so to do. Everyone thanks Mr Sinclair and Mr Maclntyre for coming to the meeting and the papers write up half a column and everyone goes back to sleep. We need new blood and ideas and fight in our political parties, all three of the major ones. We should have fight when these speakers come to report to their constituents. Not fight for the sake of a Donnybrook but fight in the sense there is much to be done for the good of the Peninsula, what are \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD these men going to . do about? The same old faces in the same old places are getting away with the type of government they like. In some cases it is riddled with petty election graft, in others it is handouts from the elected members, and in others and very infrequently, it is an honest, entirely above board battle to elect the best man. In very truth, that is what we all deserve. We sit back and let the other fellow do it. There is nothing strange or weird about a political meeting. Every person on this Peninsula over the Suddenly there wiU be a loud hue and cry and repeated questions of \"Why?\" and, \"Who is to blame?\" when some person is killed on the wharf, or some mother, loaded with parcels and young child, suddenly finds herself in the water, desperately struggling for life. This is not a case of cry havoc. It is a situation where danger is imminent. The Gibsons wharf in the dark, when the Machigonne comes in, is fraught with trouble. We have the RCMP who can very easily clear the matter,' by doing as was done on West- view wharf, prohibiting vehicles from parking. This rule could probably cause undue hardship to many. We would suggest Mr Godfrey's plan of zoning and enforcement of no all-day or night parking, would help bring common sense out of the farce that now obtains. Thin strips of tin, painted white and laid on the wharf could easily stop this senseless crowding of buses and taxis against the very end of the gangplank. Make the rules, and enforce them. It may be well to remember that any citizen can comnlain to the RCMP, it need not be a public body. The RCMP will take cognizance of any danger to the public. We suggest the-Board of Trade take warning' and act. There will certainly soon come a day when rules will be laid down which could easily annoy Gibsons and Sechelt Peninsula trade. Let us not wait for the big stick when we have the power to control ourselves. age of 21 years can easily find their way around at one. Go to them and listen to talk from the platform, listen to the talk following the\" meeting when more politics is kicked around. Listen to the undercurrent and the ebb and flow of talk from between the lines. Following two public meetings, each, interested person can feel quite at home. We urge everyone to take an interest in politics every day, not only on election day. Right here on this peninsula we have men who are holding gravy jobs from their political affiliations and party services. Some. of these men, we all know them, are as qualified to hold their positions as King Tut. _ We; have the picture of a local storekeeper who made a quick switch in his faith so he could acquire a post office in his building. There are little, petty grafters on this peninsula. They are kept alive by the weird, rather abhorring method of doing business one often finds along the fringes of political parties. It is up to each and every one of us to get into these political meetings. It is up to each of us to see that the better element within them gets a chance to speak, a chance to forward a fresh viewpoint. Only by eternal vigilance can we expect to keep good government. It should be remembered our members of parliament are our servants. It should be remembered when an elected member gets so large in his own- machine that he-starts laying down laws to party adherents; when the member threatens with withdrawal of his and his cohorts' favors, then it is time that' person is kicked out from the party irrespective if it be Liberal, CCF, or Conservative. We, are democracy. No man is irreplaceable. No man, even with his machine, is bigger than the people. Only by voting intelligently and with knowledge can we save democracy. Only by eternal vigilancej even on the Sechelt Peninsula, can we have good government of the people, for the people by the people. That applies here just as much as it did at Gettysburg. Let no person believe, for one single moment, otherwise. In more ways than one, Aries was rfght. Let t_}e younger, newer faces appear. Let democracy take over once more.

The Sechelt group were hosts for - the evening and a very enjoyable evening was had by all. The players like the Roberts Creek Hall and although we do not wish to boast we were told that the refreshments were really first class. Since- this came from a 'Roberts Creekite' that's a good word so it's not infra dig to pass it along. The return match is being looked forward to. Mr Guy Powell is the Sechelt team's Captain. Have been jumped on, bawled out, sat upon and all because there was no Sechelt News letter last issue. We will have a talk with 'OOR WILLIE'. We gave it to him with our own lily white hands so he can't blame it on the Mariner this time. Looks as though we are going to have the very latest in films here soon. There was a petition outside the hall to sign for just this reason. Hope the quota of names got on, when we went down to sign it was taken down. The newer pictures would be more popular as so many of us have seen many which come here. As for us we can see some many times. Such as 'So Dear to my Heart'. Saw it about three times, twice in town and once here. When Naughty Marietta was in Vancouver saw it seven times and never wearied of that grand singing team, Jeanette McDonald and Nelson Eddy. Hope it comes here also. Put a man in a bull dozer and a demon of destruction rides alongside, it seems this country side is getting ugly enough without destroying the beautiful Dogwoods. We went through the new subdivision behind us here at Sechelt and here was a beautiful Dogwood, the granddaddy of all Dogwoods on the Peninsula uprooted and lying on its side. Although we did not run a line it evidently was on the boulevard and thrown over out of the way. We remember the fight that'we put up to save our Dogwoods on our side road. They are not on the road allowance, and so we stayed with it and won the day and now we are grateful for their beauty every spring. Why all the streamlined roads 'God save the mark'. We had a more leisurely way of doing things years ago and saved the beautiful trees and the roads were not full of pot holes and stumps either. These came out by hand.

As the Sechelt Peninsula develops, clearing operations are necessary. These, when carried out skilfully, need not result in trees falling across power lines. In the past few months unskilled or careless operators have caused considerable annoyance to power users by interrupting service through felling trees through the lines. In many instances, these operators do not realize the physical hazard which exists, and in several instances it is miraculous that no one has been hurt. An energized conductor which has been brought down is extremely dangerous; It endangers not only the operator who felled the tree which brought it down, it also endangers anyone who comes near it until such time as it is repaired. In the interests of the Sechelt Peninsula customers the Commission must recover from the person who caused the damage all the costs which arise from the accident. Nothing the Commission can do, however, can reduce the inconvenience nor guarantee that the careless operator or a casual passer-by will not be killed. To protect yourself and others from serious physical harm and to protect your neighbor's electric service, please exercise the greatest care when clearing near power lines.
