The two charges were driving without using reasonable due care and attention. Walker paid both fines. Organize to aid Red Cross Mrs. Ruth Mitchell, president of the local Red Cross working group, has been,asked to head the Roberts Creek district Red Cross annual campaign for funds. Mrs. Mitchell feels that she can take care of the funds and the bookkeeping, but is not up to walking the roads and ringing doorbells, as she has done in the past. She is therefore appealing to young women who would be will ing to shoulder this responsibility, even to small areas near their homes. It would likely take but a few hours. Unless, of course, the job becomes too social with too many delays for cups of tea. This, too, has happened in the past. Eight members attended the first of the season meeting on Thursday and started on the sewing and cutting which will keep them working steadily all year. There is an urgent need for more workers. Before closing camp for the season, the J. T. Arthur family are entertaining Mr. and Mrs. C. R. Sebastian of Regina, and Mr. and Mrs. R. Mainwaring. Mr. and Mrs. T.

Forty-two out of 52 graduates at Elphinstone Secondary school commencement exercise Saturday night heard . sage advice from Mr. Lome Smith, a former teacher at Elphinstone school and now principal of the 7 RX!. Vocational Institute at Burnahy. He advised them that their education was only beginning and was not completed becaiise they} were graduating. He urged them to make use of their leisure time and regard graduation as the beginning of their education. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD . 7;r' Elphinstone Principal W. S.

There were 42 on the platform. ed < by-product and once gone you will never get it back. Think for a moment of the quarter- hour in the , morning before breakfast; the odd half-hour after breakfast, remember the chance to read or to figure or to think with concentration on your career. - Remember, he said, that man is wise who avoids boredom by keeping, his mind wide open and responsive to what is going on about him. But remember, this involves effort. He repeated the remark that their education was just beginning just now beginning. If they were persistent in their attempt to learn more and more about life he could assure them that they will be much happier. It was by work that we attain our best sense of achievement. Dr. Wilder Penfield, prominent neurosurgeon was once asked what he could teach adults and his reply was \"constructive use of idle time.\" Continued learning was an urgent social responsibility. Many adults found that when they left school or college there was a vast range of things they did not know and that many of the things they knew had changed. The broader your education becomes so does your wisdom and understanding. * :: The man; who is always killing time is really killing his own chances in life. Carry on with your education and utilize all your odd moments. This will increase your store of knowledge and increase your chance of success. Remember, he warned, this is notthe end of your education^ but the beginning. Hotel-iiiarina Rev. Barry Jenks of St. Hilda's church gave the invocation then Principal Potter aided by teachers and others presented the awards. Diplomas were presented by Mr. Gordon Johnson, superintendent of schools for this district. The valedictory address was delivered by Lorna Sneddon and Miss Mary Lamb sang the solo My Best to You which, followed by The Queen, concluded the ceremonies. Mrs. E. V. Freer was pianist. This year's grade 12 class prepared the Centennial theme decorations which were simple yet effective and flowers were provided by Mrs. F. J. Wyngaert, Mrs. R. Stroshein and Mrs. Ruth McDonald. Addressing graduating students Mr. Smith said he still looked upon them as his kids. It was the fifth graduation ceremony he and his wife had attended at Elphinstone and he felt honored at being requested to address them at this important milestone in their lives. Mr. Smith wished that he could outline a format of life for the graduates whereby happiness and success would be predetermined. He urged graduates to remember that this was not the end of their educational career. It was in fact only the beginning. What was going on in the world has a greater influence on them today than it had in the old world. Today's world was shrinking and what occurred on the other side was felt more quickly. Discussing the use of leisure time he said in these days much of the profit and sometimes the whole of success depends on utilizing what he termed the odds and ends and the so-called by-products. Time was the one true thing we possessed. Future success depended upon the use now of our time and its by-product, the odd moment. The odd moment was the by-product he was talking about. The men who made great success in this world are the men that have used wisely these odd moments. Every minute lost is a neglect- Thirty-two Gibsohs 7 and District Chamber of Commerce diners at Welcome Cafe Monday night heard a plea for some action to improve the Gibsons harbor area. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD With Ron Haig, president, in the chair, Mrs. Kay Butler urged chamber members to keep pressure on federal, provincial and municipal authorities until there was some action. The remarks from Mrs. Butler covered considerable ground concerning harbor improvements and shorefront possibilities. She informed the chamber that the Ernest Cartwright pro perty on which a hotel arid marina was to have been built is now on the real estate market seeking a buyer. There are eight lots involved at the base of Georgia Heights at the east end of the bay. It was his proposal to spend something like $350,000 there on a hotel and marina. This occurred during the early 1960s when Gibsons council after hearing bay area opposition to rezoning the eight lots for commercial purposes decided to make the change from residential to commercial. Since then Mr. Cartwright has been seeking financial backing. Now. Industries desired . Gibsons and District Chamber of Commerce should become involved deeper in the subject of attracting secondary industries to the district. This opinion was expressed at Gibsons council meeting on Tuesday night of last week by Councillor Ken Goddard.- His argumnt was- that in view of there being an improvement in the water supply and an even greater improvement planned regionally it was time something was done to attract more business. He referred to the fact that Kay Butler of Butler Realty had as a chamber of commerce member, interested the L & K Lumber Co. in eventually moving its North Shore plant into the Howe Sound section of the Sunshine Coast. Councillor Fred Feeney added information about the Sunshine Coast Regional District board study into commercial aspects of the area and is expecting a report to be available within a month. Students exchanged More than 600 British Columbia students will be criss-crossing the province for the week 'commencing Sept. 23, L. J. Wallace, general chairman of the British Columbia Centennial committee announces. ..Three will visit other points from this school area and three will visit here from other areas. The three from this area will be Trevor Johnson who goes to Penticton, Clint Booth who goes to Lytton arid Rita Ono who goes to Haney. The visitors will be Carolyn Clark of North Surrey, Ursula Schmiing of Vancouver and Bruce Wilson of Coquitlam. All are secondary school pupils. They will study in unaccustomed classrooms under the British Columbia Youth Travel program, a provincial Centennial project now in its second year. In 1966, 572 students took part in the exchange program. This year it is expected 613 students from 157 schools will take part moving by air, train and bus. They will be guests in the homes of pupils of a similar age, will spend from three to five days in classes. Arrangements have also been made for industrial and scenic tours of the communities visited. SQUARE DANCING STARTS Square dancing will start this Sat., Sept. 23 at 8:30 p.m. at Hopkins Hall. he has decided to dispose of some of the lots unless someone steps in to buy all eight lots. Alfred Ritchey, former council chairman, gave as his opinion that the area outside the bay extending from the wharf towards the George Hill dock should get some attention. He favored a breakwater to extend out 600 feet from the old Co-op store location which would offer considerable protection for a wide area. Chamber members decided to continue pressing for action on the harbor area at the various levels of government. Reference was made to the Dr. How report expected shortly following his tour of the Georgia Strait area in an.effort to find out what is required as a small boat harbor policy for the federal government. Guests for the evening were RCMP Cpl. R. H. and Mrs. Duffin. Mrs. Lee Macey, secretary- treasurer announced she would be relinquishing that position at the October meeting. In the meantime the chamber will look for someone to replace her in that position.

A well deserved honor Honoring two firemen after 20 years service with Gibsons and Area Volunteer Fire Department brings back memories to many oldtimers who can recall the early days of the fire department. . First came a fire-fighting force with a home-made hose reel and cart to carry it. The firemen during the Second War joined the Air Raid Precaution group and were able to get more equipment. It was shortly after this that both honored firemen, Norman (MacKay and Ed Kullander, who were presented with binoculars bearing an engraved nameplate, at the Municipal Hall last Tuesday, joined the force. For many years the firemen labored on, adding to equipment piece by piece. They also expanded in an unofficial way their services to the outside area. Wherever it was possible for the fire trucks to go they went, regardless of weather. Now the outside area is organized into a fire prevention district which will be of greater value to the firemen, relieving them of being dependent on a few people who were willing to obtain a membership and thus help financially. Gibsons and area should be grateful to these firemen and honoring two of them after 20 years service is just a small token of what the area owes all of these men. - \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD ' Solution for Bowenites If Bowen Islanders want a solution to the problem to get under the low taxation umbrella of the Sunshine Coast Regional District' they have a means to this end. AH that would be required of them would be to form a municipality of the whole island. By this means they would be their own regional district and look after their affairs to suit themselves. This way they would not have to worry about what the regional board is liable to or not to do. They can hold their own meetings, have their own battles and settle them in their own way in their own backyard. So here's to Bowen Islanders and their future as a municipality! Joys of childhood While young mothers may not be joyful over the ramblings of younger fry when supposed to be headed homeward from school there is some consolation to be derived. Let's go back to our own childhood. We more than likely did the same thing and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Time was -when a certain mother during school lunch hour came beetling up to a certain Egg Pond in Halifax, Nova Scotia, and rounded up her innocent sons to get them home so they could be fed. Time means nothing to the young mind but as one grows older the effects of time bear down and things must be done according to the clock. When it says it is time for lunch there is no escaping that fact. Not so with the young mind. The event, the glorious spasm of freedom is refreshing. Carefree moments are all too brief, containing joys of companionship which have no bearing on time. They are to be enjoyed until a somewhat frantic mother breaks in on the scene to bring the young mind back to the horrible thought that this is the lunch hour \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD and boy \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD we'd better get going! Ten years ago .Hackett Park 1 in Sechelt became a civic reality. Actually, the park had been set aside back in 1952 to wait the day when Sechelt became an incorporated village. The date for incorporation was Feb. 15, 1956. Correspondence then started with the board of trade and later the municipal office and Union Steamships company. In September, 1957, Sechelt. council's chairman Mrs. Christine Johnston issued the following statement: In March 1953 the Sechelt Board of Trade was advised by the Union Steamships Company that a five-acre block of the USS Company Ltd, would be deeded to the Sechelt Board of Trade in trust for the community until such time that Sechelt became an incorporated . village, the property then vbe deeded by the trustee to the village. Certain conditions were imposed by the USS company such as the construction of a road and certain clearing to be done on the property. E. E. Coe was appointed by the board, of trade as chairman of the parks committee and organized several successful drives and clearing bees, resulting in all conditions laid down by the company being met in full and even exceeded, with a large square being cleared for a ball field in addition to making adjacent roads. The late E. Parr-Pearson was a tireless worker for the park. Osiborne Logging contributed greatly with machinery for clearing and many members of \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD the board of trade supported the work with donations, money and labor. In May 1956, the village of Sechelt having become an incorporated body, the Sechelt Board of Trade requested the company to transfer the title to Hackett Park directly to the village. Correspondence was entered into between the Vil lage council and the company with the result that Hackett Park has now been properly .surveyed and finalizing of the transfer of title from the company to the Village of Sechelt is now in progress.. Great plans for the develop- 7 ment of the park are , being pushed by the local Centennial Committee. A baseball diamond complete with bleachers, special playground for children and general development of Hackett Park as a beauty spo. within the Village of Sechelt, is the ambitious program of the Centennial committee uoder the chairmanship of village - commissioner, Capt. Sam Dawe. 7 I urge all citizens of Sechelt and surrounding area to give their full support to this worthy project which in years to come can give both to young and old lasting pleasure and enjoyment. Christine Johnston, Chairman, Sechelt Village Commissior. Hackett Park was named after the late Bert Hackett who was the popular manager at Sechelt for the company. In the winter and early spring of 1953 and 1954 the parksite was bulldozed and cleared by volunteer labor under supervision of Ted Osborne, Sr., with Jackson Logging providing some equipment. In 1958 Sechelt provincial centennial project burned the accumulated debris, further clearing was done and bleachers erected. The area was then seeded. In 1960 a backstop and flagpole were erected and the park was first used that year for the May Day celebration arid ball games. Since then a stage was added, steps built and a public ad-, dress system purchased along with tents for refreshment booths. Power poles were positioned and B.C. Hydro saw to it that power was available. Considerable volunteer labor was involved during these years. In the early years considerable work was done by Tom Parish, Leo Carlson, Ron 'Larsen, Sr., and the late Ron Larsen, Jr., Curly Tyson, Bob Tyson, Rudy Crucil and, Leo Johnson. Ted Osborne, Sr., provided a donkey, engine with rigging and Ted Chalmers operated the same. Jackson Logging provided a grader. In later years a building was erected containing facilities for the serving of food also change rooms for those taking part in sports events, baseball, soccer and others. Reserve military units have also used the park as a training ground during summer days. Including the cost of the building and other expenses incurred for maintenance and excluding volunteer labor something more than \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD15,000 has been spent on Hackett park sincei it became village property COPYRIGHT APPLIED FOB We welcome written questions on legal points from readers.

Ballentine, member of Gibsons council and one of the original members of the board of trade was honored by being named Good Citizen. Clearing up of the purchase of the garbage disposal site by Gibsons council was ordered by payment of $513 to complete the deal. Ken Watson of Gibsons Meat Market doubled the size of his store when Sam Fladager vacated the other half of the premises. Long distance phone calls are now being placed through the Gibsons telephone exchange instead of through the Vancouver central office. Tve noticed that they nwer interrupt a COMMERCIAL for a n*ws buUetinf J Numerous husbands have written in wanting td^ know if they can prevent their wives running up bills in the husband's name, by advertising in a local newspaper. The answer is no. It would be necessary to prove that the store received such a notice. In a city the size of Vancouver, it would be impractical to give every store a notice cutting off a wife's credit. This may be accomplished by advertising in a circular subscribed to by most retailers and published by a credit investigating company. A lawyer should be consulted for accomplishing this. It is a husband's responsibility to support his wife for the necessities of life. This means a reasonable quantity of food, clothing, shelter, etc., according to his standard of living. She may pledge his credit for necessities which fall within the domestic department usually confided to the care and management of the wife. A tradesman could not generally sue a husband for luxuries or extravagant items bought by the wife. The tradesman would be left with the unsatisfactory remedy of suing the wife only. The husband escapes liability also if he can prove that his wife was already well supplied with necessities or with an allowance to purchase them or that he expressly forbade her to pledge his credit. These principals of law apply also to POINT OF LAW of ~/r f^raclicing. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDu_t*t Seek change Gibsons council has not dropped its plan to change the village name from Gibsons Landing to Gibsons.

Buckley, Plant Research Institute, Ottawa Now when vthe lawns are probably looking better than at any time since June, it would seem foolish to talk about weed killing and fertilizing; yet these late summer or early fall days are the best time for both of these operations. Remember last June when the grass in your lawn seemed to have been replaced by dandelions! Most of these plants came from seeds that were floating in the air soon after the weeds in your lawn had been sprayed. Spring-feilled weeds die and leave small patches in the lawn, which make excellent seed beds for the floating, parachuting seeds of the dandelion. \" . These seeds grow into fair- sized plants by fall and are ready to flower and repeat the- cycle again next spring. If you spray in September and kill the weeds, there will be fewer seeds to grow in the exposed soil. By next June, when the seeds are once more in the a.r from neighboring areas, the grasses in your lawn will have had a chance to fill the bare spots. Herbicides may be used for the selective control of weeds in lawns. When using herbicides follow the instructions given for each product and be especially alert with weed killers that may volatilize, such as certain esters of 2,4-D and Silver. These should not be used near ornamental shrubbery nor on windy days. This applies not only to spraying with these herbicides but also to weed-bar applications, wihich can be particularly dangerous when the wind blows the treated grass clippings on to plants. There are no hard and fast rules for feeding turf, for some soils are richer than others and contain different amounts of nutrient. To play it safe, use a complete fertilizer (one containing nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium) twice a year, in 'the early spring and again in late summer or early fall. In some areas booster fertilization with nitrogen may add color seasonally. When you fertilize in the fall you do so when the bluegrasses, fescues and bentgrasses are'at their best. They are then developing underground rhizomes and thickening above, but not producing the leaf growth that demands extra mowing. Two to three pounds of actual nitrogen (that is, 10 to 15 pounds of a 20% nitrogen fertilizer) is advised for every thousand square feet per year, the nitrogen being applied one or two pounds at a time. For the money, nothing improves the appearance of the lawn more than fertilizer used at the right time. Fertilized lawns hold up better, have a deeper green color and resist weed invasion much more effectively than unfertilized ones. The usual fertilizer ratio recommended for lawns is 2:1:1. This means that the first number should equal the sum of the other two. For example, 10:6:4 or 12:6:6 are good lawn fertilizers. According to the 2:1:1 rate this means using 12 pounds of 12:6:6 or 15 pounds of 10:6:4 for every 1000 square feet of lawn. Mark your lawn off into strips and measure your fertilizer according to the square feet of surface in each strip. This ensures an even distribution and will avoid dark and light areas, which often follow the feeding of lawns. If a mechanical distributor is used, the job is much easier, but be careful to set the machine correctly and test it on FUELS Stove and fireplace wood.

All chemical fertilizers should be applied when the grass is dry and then thoroughly soaked with water immediately after the application. Use a coarse forceful spray from a hose nozzle. The object is merely to wash the fertilizer from the leaves to prevent burning. ROBERTS CREEK (By MADGE NEWMAN) It was decided at the Roberts Creek Hospital Auxiliary meeting on Monday, to send two delegates to the provincial convention at Penticton, Oct. 2-5. Although meetings were deferred for the summer, auxiliary members have not been idle. Besides taking their turn at the Thrift Shop and in the hospital, they catered, very successfully, to two weddings, and also held a Centennial tea and bake sale. Because of the Thanksgiving holiday, the October meeting will take place on Oct. 16 instead of Oct. 9.

Ontario lad wins national essay contest Winner of the Canadian Weekly Newspapers Association Cen- tenial Essay Contest announced at the annual meeting of the association was Urmas: Vilman- sen of Chesterville, Ontario. Born in Canada, his parents came here from Estonia. As winner of the Ontario division contest he competed with entries from the other provinces including B.C., and the Rt. Hon. Vincent Massey, in his comment on the finalists, said they possessed a number of characteristics in common. \"The writers all refer to their pride in their country and also their obligation to Canada as citizens, expressed in different terms, of course, On the whole there is a healthy absence of complacency. Some of.the essays are a little too concerned with detail, but- generally speaking, they reflect thoughtfulness. All the essays except one express pride in Canada as a nation. The exception relates to an essay which discounts nationalism as a sinister force, and expresses the hope that Canada will perform her duties in the international world. How that can be done without approaching world problems as a nation, he doesn't say. \"In conclusion, I would like to say that those who organized the essay competition should be pleased with the result. It undoubtedly stimulated a great deal of thinking on the part of those who participated, which no doubt has achieved the main purpose of the whole effort. I am very happy to have been asked to judge the competition.\" Arthur Stanley of Kaslo, B.C., a director of Canadian Weekly Newspapers Association i n charge of the Centennial Essay competition has announced the names of the B.C. winners. They are: 1. Stephanie Fisher, Division eight, West Vancouver Secondary School. 2. Susan Marnoch, Grade 10 Kamloops Secondary school. 3. Dick Fowler, grade 12, Stanley Humphries Secondary school Castlegar. The winner of first prize will be rewarded with a cheque at the B.C. Weeklies convention in late October.

Olsen like the valiant Capt. Hornblower of Saturday Post and Hollywood fame, has learned to live with, if not conquer his squeamish stomach and during the past V/2. years has directed his tugs in assisting tows up and down -the coasts. Previously he operated out of False Creek. During the war years, he did a stint with the fishing packers of the Fraser Valley. Now at the age of 50, married \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD his wife Nonnie provided him with a ready made family from a previous marriage, three children, two boys 9 and 11 and a girl 4. Cliff admits he still has a long way to go to measure up to his father who retired only last year as a troller at the age of 83. ing him that a fill-in of a dangerous gravel pit bordering the road at Halfmoon Bay would be filled in- Nothing had been done, the pit was still there. Canon Greene suggested it might be poetic justice if the minister of highways were to meet up with a major mishap in this murder trap and suggested a monument be erected on the site as a constant reminder of his ignoring this menace and procrastination in remedying the situation; The Canon entrusted Mrs. Dawson with yet another of his cartoons to add to the collection which he has already provided Mr. Gaglardi. Mrs. Dawson defended Mr. Gaglardi and pointed out a list of road improvements already carried out with many more highway improvements along the Sunshine Coast scheduled for next year. Questions were raised concerning the new 200-car Langdale ferry how soon would it be placed in operation. While Mrs. Dawson had no definite information on this, she pointed out contracts had been let jointly by the government and Ferry Authority for improvements on the Langdale ferry terminal to include additional parking space. This brought up the question of the seasonal traffic problem on the stretch between Langdale and Gibsons. Mr. Lafond of Hopkins suggested a red signal light at the ferry exit and the highway controlling the flow of traffic to and from Port Mellon or the RCMP speed up the incoming ferry traffic at the intersection of the ferry exit and the highway. Other strong recommendations included a one-way ferry traffic along the narrow Gibsons-Hopkins stretch by diverting the flow up the North Road. Another constant danger to pedestrians and particularly school children was the stretch between Granthams and Gibsons where a deep ditch on one side, water filled in winter and on the other side the precarious EARLY BANKER While it is possible that a merchant or a public scribe founded the institution of banking, it is generally believed an English jeweler pioneered this vocation. Sir Francis Child, a 17th century goldsmith who lent large sums of money to the government, is credited with being the first to convert this trade to a banking enterprise. He is often called the father of the profession of banking.
