D. during the long, dry spell occurred last Tuesday afternoon when the firemen were called to a small outbreak on South Otter Road. Oddly enough, the firemen put out one small fire which was threatening a telephone pole before they found out that the call was for another similar fire further down the road. Mrs. F. Carson, Mrs, K. Ross and daughter, Pamela, returned borne last week from a month's vacation ln Europe where they visited most countries. "Wonderful," said Pamela, but she, nevertheless, was very pleased to see Canada again. Recipient of many wolf calls In Aldergrove last week was Mel (Tiny) Taylor who wore Itzl-bltsl khaki shorts. Visiting his son Alf Atkins, who ls working on government survey In Aldergrovo, Is Harry Atkins, an old timer from Salmon Arm, who was one of the Instigators of the original Williams lake Times newspaper. He staying at Rose Garden Motel and has lived in B. C. for 50 years coming from Cardiff, Wales as a boy. A butcher by. trade, he ls an old* friend of Bill Ferguson. Fire call on Thursday was a false alarm. Creosoting of1 fence posts near the border on South Jackman created black smoke and someone thought lt was a barn fire.

Now a new roof has been laid by Coast Roofing Of Burnaby. n Three layers of roof felting, all tarred, have been laid over Insulation board and the whole gravelled. No. more leaks are guaranteed for 16 years. The main boiler has been re- bricked and a new stack pipe installed. All this work has now been finished but the largest job started this week and that is the paving program. The entrance way to the forecourt ln front and the roadway to tbe rear of the hospital will be paved as well as the roadway to the nurses quarters and the garage. • Visitors will not be able to drive Into the car park until all work has been finished and cars belonging to doctors and staff will have to drive over .the grass verge near tbe highway to reach their parking space to the west of the hospital. space Immediately to the right of, one enters the driveway will eventually be converted to a miniature park where visitors can sit and meet walking patients. The present dusty conditions will be greatly alleviated by the paving program' which ls being undertaken by Scotland and Adanison. Hosptlal administrator H. B. Devine asks for forebearance on the part of the public during the paving program which he says may take ten days or more. "We're doing it for the public's convenience and ft -1*111 be so much better afterwards," he raid. He expects some confusion to start with and Is accordingly putting out traffic controllers.

Langlay Telephone Langlty 314 Letters Editor, The Aldergrove News: As Delta candidate for election to the B. C. Legislature on September 12,1 would like to address these words to your readers to let them Judge me ln that way. I believe that all of us, of farm, town, province, country and world, 'are striving for security. But we cannot get lt now at the cost of some other individual or nation. A man or city may be well-to-do materially, yet this means nothing In the destruction of a final war. To survive we must put cooperation for common good ahead of competition for private gain. This is the OOF program. Even its critics have expressed surprise at the movement's record of achievement in social progress, whether as opposition or government. It ls a people's party. It stands for peace.and plenty. I am proud to stand for it. For myself — I am a lower Mainland woman, born ln Vancouver, raised in Abbotsford. I worked as a nurse in New Westminster. I live in Burnaby where the voters have had enough confidence in me to return me three times at the top of the municipal polls. I am a Delta taxpayer, and am preparing to work, fulltime, for the Delta public in the Legislature after September 12. I ask for the active, voting support of all those, 'right, left or centre," who value hard work and modern thinking.

H. Hicks MP has already made the suggestion some months ago, Provincial co-operation is needed." Outlining Party platform with regard to Education the Tory candidate charged the government with "stalling" on the findings of the Chant Commission on Education and while others were prepared to wait for its results, Progressive Conservatives were prepared to meet the prob- Jem with positive action and immediately revise the school curriculum to ensure higher standards ln essential subjects. He continued, "It's no use sending some children to school as 'seat warmers' when they are not Interested ln academic subjects and yet those same young people can be the best tradesmen ln the country with Vocational training that suits them." He also outlined the provision of funds for the establishment of a Dental Faculty at UBC which ls 'long overdue'.

ALTRUISM if By Tom Gascolgne I walked slowly up the street, stopping for a few moments to cast my peepers over a selection of new cars that were on display on one of the larger car lots. Within the space of a few moments the salesmen approached me and they ssemed quite eager to trade me out of my old car Into a new. Our present car, though old. runs nicely, looks O.K.. and we like lt. These salesmen though, are really tops, and deep inside them runs a streak of high spirit and fanatical tenacity. Based over a period of time their arguments are impressive and economically sound. Money ts never, never mentioned by them, well, I for the moment at least. They will agree to any reasonable pro- Igram of finance, their one and only purpose In this short life Is for the continued happiness, safety and welfare of the customer; such altruism. There are very few of us In the district today with such purity of mdtlve and everlasting faith; I departed before they broke my h-^art, bless 'em. THE END I walked past the funeral parlors, too, and I am fully determined to keep passing, somehow I feel It ls my right to do so, regardless of their oblique glances. Really, I never did appreciate the way the boys in there looked at me. The expectant, yet, disappointed attitude leaves me feeling as though I was deliberately cheating them and was long overdue for an important appointment. Do wish they wouldn't do this, 111 turn up sooner or later; that's a promise, darn it. WITHOUT RECOURSE The Editor of this paper will concede without recourse to argument, that this writers poor misguided efforts are seldom read by the subscribers.

Black, in charge of fallout shelters for the citizens of B. c, insists that the Sunset Program Daily At P.N.E. An historical and stirring Sunset Ceremony will be staged by the Royal Canadian Navy ln Empire Stadium during the Aug. 20-Sept. 5 Pacific National Eh- hibltion. Sound of rifle fire will mingle with military band music when more than 200 men go through the paces of the ceremony as searchlights sweep the stadium Sunset ceremonies first appeared ln military records in 1554, when they were staged as a means of recalling men from the field of battle. Falrgoers will be admitted free to the one-hour ceremony starting at 9:30 p. in. Monday, August 22. Football fans at the August 20 B. C. Lions Game at Empire Stadium will get a ceremony preview when a shortened version will be presented by the RCN during half-time. only safe course for us to follow in the case of n nuclear attack, ls to dive for the fallout shelter we hope to build in the future. Personally I am an excellent coward and would feel some better were we to come to some arrangement with whoever it is that would dare to attack us poor little innocent Canadians. Much rather some arrangement than to make like a gopher for the rest of my life. However it does make sense to have one of these shelters available where possible, and dont forget to allow room for the family skeleton, Just can't forget him, can we?

Automobile Association: Speed, generally believed to be the sole cause, Is one of many contributing factors, which fall into three main classes: 1. Tread design, construction and operating characteristics of tires. 2. Car front-end suspension and wheel alignment. 3. Tbe condition of the road Itself. The source of the squeal is "side slip." When tires slip sideways over road surface, however slight, the resulting noise ls similar to rubbing two inflated balloons together. Motorists can reduce tire squeal by following these BCAA suggestions: 1. Keep tires properly Inflated, observing manufacturer's res- ommended air pressure. 2. Obviously, avoid taking corners fast 3. Check car front-end align ment periodically. 4. Rotate tires regularly, at least 3000 miles, Including spare ln rotation. Aldergrove, B.

ULyuai 3-6481 Abbotsford Every year the Canada Council sends two hundred high school students from all over Canada to the Stratford, Ontario, Shakespearean Festival, with all expenses paid. This year I was one of the fortunate students. Travelling with a large group of happy, excited and noisy teenagers was an unforgettable experience. The purpose of the trip was to see three of Shakespeare's plays performed. King John was a gloomy and depressing production. All the plots, murders and treachery were superbly acted. The king took nearly half an hour to die; he was very convincing. One of the actresses died noisily, screaming and clutching a rag doll of her lost son. There was not an unhappy moment In A Mid-Summer Night's Dream. Bottom and hia friends were delightfully ignorant and Incompetent. Oberon, Tltania, and the young lovers also acted their parts well. Romeo and Juliet was the best of the three plays. All the actors were perfect. Their interpretations were unique and exciting. Nearly all the girls were wiping their eyes during the last few scenes. There were other thrills during our stay at Stratford. We met most of the actors. We had expected them to be haughty snobs, but they couldn't have been more friendly and considerate. We saw original editions of Shakespeare's plays, more than 300 years old. We had time to explore the Avon River and the town of Stratford. There were plenty of problems on the train. Late one evening our chaperones panicked when all the lights went out. We missed a meal because the cooks ran out of food. Snoopy conductors tried to break up our parties and make us go to bed as early as three in the morning. One of our porters was intoxicated. I'd like to thank three of the people who made this trip possible for me; Mr. Goostrey, my counsellor and director; Mr. Hlckey, my English teacher; and Mr. Hanson, principal of Aldergrove High School. Without their help and encouragement during the last three years I certainly could not have earned a place on the Canada Council train to Stratford.

Rotarians Hear Congo Story Abbotsford Rotarians learned some of the Inside story connected with the Congo at their meeting last night. Guest speaker at the meeting was Susie Schmidt, a missionary recently returned from that trouble spot. Miss Schmidt told of her training before she commenced teaching ln a missionary school there. She spoke or conditions leading up to the riots in the Congo and said that all women and children were evacuated following army riots. Miss Schmidt told the meeting that she hoped some day to be able to go back to the country as she had liked working there ln the school among the Congolese people. During the short business meeting preceding the speaker, Rotarians received a letter of thanks from the MSA Parks Board for their $100 donation towards benches in the park. The benches are being constructed and some are all ready ln place near the pool.

Matsqul municipal water systems remain on the same rules. ■ UNION OFFICERS, ■ UNION AFFAIRS " AND POLITICS pj Of tha established place of labor unions today there can be no doubt. They are accepted, and legitimate £ union affairs are recognized to be the business of members and their officers. But there is a large scale doubt — **l amongst unionists, too—that union affairs and party politics should be H mixed. The heads of United States _ international unions strongly advise against it. They say union interests at suffer when unions go into politics. em In British Columbia, certain union lead? ers have virtually taken over the So- H cialist CCF party. Today no one knows _ what is done for union advantage and ^* what is for political propaganda effect. aa Union statements formerly taken at face value are now suspect by mem- ■ bets and the public alike: These paid union officers reach to ,odd vast political strength to the '""money, jobs and power they already ^-a*1 control. As neither union Interest nor public Interest is served by mixing unionism and polities, British Columbians will create more confidence and employment in B.C. by clearly rejecting state Socialism and the CCF-union tie-up at the polls.

BA 67531 Roads Paved By Subdivides Says Reeve Since the municipal Sub-divi- slon Control By-Law was passed there have been six subdivisions approved by council requiring the construction and paving of the roads on tho subdivision. Three or these roads have been completed to paving standards and three are pending. Reeve D. W. Poppy told council last week thnt this information should be publicized be cause taxpayers might think that the roads were provided from municipal funds whereas they were actually paid for by the Bub-dlvlder. BEFORE THAT HOLIDAY FINEST SERVICE — REASONABLE PRICES Feel Safe — Drive In for a check up ai ALDERGROVE SHELL SERVICE Fred Dams Day BA 6-3604 Night BA 6-6S71 BillboardBy-law Under Study A committee consisting of Reeve D. W. P.wy, Councillors J. Wellman and A. E. Roberts has been set up by council to study the proposed Billboards By-law. The batiUi question before council said Reeve Poppy is whether to allow billboards or not ln the municipality and he made the following observations. Billboards are banned Yn Surrey and In most of Matsqul he said, so Langley could become a money-making haven for poster companies. Existing billboards and signs, in some cases, are blocking the view from nearby residences, and also mar the landscape. Some of the signs are directional signs he went on, but the majority do not have any local advertising. The land owner only receives one twelfth of the annual rent with the rest going to the billboard company and, questioned the reeve, 'should anyone be allowed to Interfere with the scenery which can be enjoyed by all our residents and our many visitors, in order to make a financial gain?" He finished his report by adding, "If billboards along the highway are a distraction, should they be allowed, thereby adding to the already high number of traffic accidents and fatalities?" A letter was read from P. A. Ziegler from Monk's Hall, Fort Langley stating that billboards are banned ln most of the municipalities on the North American continent and in Europe and suggesting that they are not necessary for local advertising and ore a detriment to the development of the municipality.

After the meeting, some of the guests drove to the James Mac- Parlane farm while others went to the home of Mrs. S. Hanger before returning to Vancouver. 4-HClubWinners Assist At P.N.E.

C„ Alberta and Montana. Their route took them through the Fraser Canyon to the 150 Mile House, where they toured by Horsefly and Likely. They proceeded north over the Hart Highway to Dawson Creek. This is a good gravel road exoept w,here construction is taking place. This gave rise to dust on the western end and prairie mud on the eastern side. At Fort St. John, Mr. and Mrs. Davis visited old friends and had a good look at some very beautiful country. Their return Journey was by Edmonton, Rocky Mountain House and a forestry road to Cochrane and then to Calgary. The 'Oolng- to-the-Sun1 Highway through Glacier Park was one of the most beautiful drives in tbe Rockies.

Cricketers Come From Behind To Score Victory Langley Cricket Club had a close shave Saturday but won their game against OccoslonalB at Spencer Field, UBC, when the position looked hopeless. Langley batted first and quickly lost five wickets for only 25 runs before a stand by John Thomson, 18, and Rick Buck, 10, started an upward swing for the local side and the tail enders, with Gerry Woolfson scoring 16 not out, enabled the side to finish with a respectable total of 99 runs. Opening bowler R. Myers for Occasionals was no-balled 7 times and proved disconcerting to batsmen and umpires alike. Occasionals reached the score of 60 with only 3 wickets down, due to a fine inning of 57 by Max Howell and it looked all over bar the shouting. But Art Griffin, 5 wickets for 19 and Colin. Stewart, 3 for 15, thought otherwise and backed up by fine fielding the last 7 wickets fell for only 14 runs leaving Langley the victors by 25. This win leaves Langley two points off league leadership and next week they play at home again against West Vancouver Capllanos.

O, have Initiated a new mine finding venture—this time ln the Skagit River country 25 miles southeast of Hope, B. O. Earl M. Olts and Clarence H. Gillis, after their successful venture in Cralgmont, Joined with H. E. Simpson in optioning tbe Gold Coin group of claims in 1658 from Henry Fooks of Agassis, B. C. In August 1959, they acquired the claims outright and conveyed title to a newly formed British Columbia company Earlcrest Resources Limited." The property is one which Mr. Fooks selected after intensive participation in mining exploration since he came to B. C. from Ottawa more than 70 years ago. Fooks, still resident in Agassiz, Is now a hale and hearty 93 with a mind 'as bright as a dollar." He started his hunt for ore ln profitable quantities on the 1111- clllewatt River in the Rockies at about the time the CPU. was pushing Its way westward. Soon after, he homesteaded in fertile Agassiz Valley. He maintained his Interest in prospecting through a career during which he served his chosen community ln many responsible positions. For 50 years he was clerk and collector of Kent Municipality of which the Agassiz Valley is part. His quest for mines led him to the Hope region. His personal investigations were supplemented by talks with Dr. Cairnes of the Geological Survey of Canada. Mr. Foods recalls vividly the remarks of Dr. Cairnes that he regarded the mineralization of the area to be of deep seated origin. R. E. Renshaw, consulting geologist, examined the property for the present owners last September and reviewed results of subsequent work in December. He reports that the claims contain two types of mineralization which, he recommends, merit considerable exploration to define their economic potential. He states that both replacement and vein types of mineralization present have the width, length and possible depth to develop large tonnages of ore. Both types, he says, are situated on steep bluffs and can be explored by drilling and blasting rock cuts, a method which he says will be cheaper than diamond drilling at the present time. He points out that such cuts will also prove the lateral and vertical extent. In December on the basis of results of two trenches cut late last season Mr. Renshaw said they gave favourable indications that further extensive exploration and development "was more than Justified."
