During these times the presence of women as Civic officers may have paid extensive and rewarding dividends. A woman's attitude towards Civic affairs is quite as serious in character as those of men.

NEW HOSPITAL ON SCHEDULE Alderman Len Nicholas says the new Langley Hospital construction ls running on schedule, and some phases are ahead of schedule. He told City CouncU that except for finishing, most items on the buUding list are 95 to 100 per cent complete. Nicholas, CouncU representative on the hispital Board says. that according to the last head nurses report, the hospital had a 119.7 percent occupancy rate for the month of July. In July last year, the rate was 103 per cent. Hospital officials arrive .at the occupancy rate by figuring 100 per cent for 45 fUled beds, and during July, 28 to 60 beds were occupied throughout the month. Nicholas says that although several ideas have been mooted, it has stUl not been decided what the old hospital wUl be used for when the new one is completed.

MATSQUI Back to school offers a full measure of fine picture-taking opportunities, even more so if it's "off to school" for the first time. There are the new clothes, the shining morning faces that won't wear so well-scrubbed a look for another year, the excitement, the fears and the anticipation on the faces of all the "small fry". With a series of snaps, you can recall all the highlights of the big day. When the children return from school, they'll be full of adventure, showing how they drew with chalk, telling about their teacher and fellow students. Those .are your cues for extra snaps. Be sure to plan ahead for the picture-taking day. Keep your camera loaded, with plenty of ad-' ditional film and flash bulbs on hand. Then you'll be prepared to take outdoor pictures or indoor shots with flash whenever the moment arises. Before taking pictures, check the viewfinder carefully to see your composition. Then hold the camera firmly and press the shutter gently. Older children may like to think in terms of photography themselves. Encourage them. They can't start too soon, and these afe the years to compile photographs of new friends and old, school activities. If a camera didn't appear as a "school's out" gift, make it one for back to school. There will be dozens of opportunities to put it to use. Class activities, school sports, the school hop, records of completed assignments in handicrafts, and art and even in home economics to get a shot of that first angel cake. There are pictures to be made for the school year book, maybe even a few dollars to be made in selling prints of school activities to other school friends to pay for film and prints. A great many schools have their own camera clubs and darkroom where students can learn the basics of photography. Whatever your family situation — a tot preparing for that first day at school, a youngster heading for a first year in junior high, a student starting the first day of that last year in school — the camera should record it9orever.

WE WILL BE CLOSED FOR ANNUAL VACATION STARTING TUESDAY AUG 25th RE-OPEN FOR BUSINESS Let Your Baker B<> Your Menu Maker ART'S PASTRY SHOP ALDERGROVE Parliament Report By BARRY MATHER, MP OTTAWA- Despite the grave turn of world affairs with explosive situations in several quarters of the globe, public interest in local matters remains at its natural high level. Among such matters concerning the residents of the Lower Mainland at this time, and particularly those who live or work on the banks of the Fraser River, is the old and recurring question of flood control. It was indeed fortunate that the Lower Fraser VaUey dyking system withstood the recent prolonged high water perlod-the river level at Mission having remained above 23 feet for no less than 10 days during June. While extensive seepage occurred in some areas the main dyking system remained Intact except for a break which occurred in a municipal dyke on the Harrison River at Harrison Hills....About 100 acres of land were flooded and three families were forced to temporarily evacuate the area. In the final report of the Fraser River Board, tabled In the House of Commons last March, the Board recommended as a first step towards flood control a dyke reinforcement program at an estimated cost of $4,900,000. As one who experienced the disastrous 1948 Fraser flood I was much interested in the Board's far reaching recommendations and I hope that the authorities concerned wiU be able to reach an early agreement on implementing them. Discussing the subject with Honourable Arthur Lalng, Minister of Northern Affairs and National Resources, I found that he had talked the matter over with the Honourable R. G. Williston of B. C. as early as April 15th and had written him on April 24th to advise that the federal government would consider contributing up to 37 1/2 percent of the cost of the dyke reinforcement program. The federal minister told the B. C. Government that the latter could submit plans for the most pressing requirements of this program for immediate attention and forward details of the complete program as soon as possible thereafter. At the beginning of August no further information seems to have been forwarded from Mr. Williston. We seem, in this matter of Fraser River flood control, to be In danger of delay unused by this ancient problem -• two-or- three-way agreements on shared costs. It ls set out in the Canada Water Conservation Assistance Act that, and I quote: "The contributions paid by Canada is respect of an agreement with a province, shall not exceed the amount paid by tbe province in respect of tbe project and in case shall exceed 37 and one-half. percent of the cost of the project". I have been reading municipal council minutes lately In which those conerned at that level are of the opinion that the local taxpayers cannot be expected to contribute a suggested 35% of tbe flood protection cost. I do not know the B. C. government's views, although there have been unofficial reports that M.C. wants a 50% contribution from Ottawa. In this business of^lood control we are apt to be rather Uke the man who, when he was IU, referred his wage-but when he recovered got back very quickly Into his old bad habits. Certainly the high water season Just past gives further proof, if any were needed, that it is necessary to carry out the dyke reinforcement program as soon as possible.

The move was made foUowing a re- quest by residents of the street to make it one way. Council decided not to restrict the street to one way traffic however 15 mile per hour speed limit signs will be posted, warning strips painted and trees cut back for better vision. * * * 16 YEARS, MINIMUM POOL HALL AGE Boys and girls under 16 years of age wUl not be able to play pool or billiards in Abbotsford any more. Abbotsford VUlage commission last night gave final reading to a biU which has been under consideration since AprU. Chairman M. M. Shore said that some young- sters were playing pool that were so small they could hardly look over the edge of the table. Com- missioner Ken Thompson said he felt pool haU owners should be able to regulate their own busin- nesses. The new bylaw states that anyone under sixteen found in a pool hall is liable to fine of up to one hundred doUars or a jaU term of up to 30 days. Hours are also regulated as to opening at 8 and closing not later than midnight. * * * HIGHWAY SIGNS INADEQUATE The provincial department of highways wiU investigate the matter of additional highways signs in Abbotsford. Abbotsford Oommission had requested overhead signs directing traffic to highway 401. In a letter from the highways department officials were told that by following highway 1, traveUers would be able to intersect 401 at either the east or west end of the district. Abbotsford commissioners and Matsqui councU wiU send letters to the provincial department asking that the old trans Canada highway from Mt. Lehman road to the eastern boundry be known as South Fraser Way. Informa- tion from the department states that the highway is known as the Fraser Highway from the King George Highway to the Mt. Lehman road. * * * HUNNTNGDON PORT BRIGHTENED UP Visitors to British Columbia coming through the Huntingdon Port of entry wUl be welcomed by a bright new sign. FoUowing representations by the Abbotsford and District Chamber the Welcome to B. C. sign has been repainted and moved to a better location. The Chamber sought action after many complaints that the sign was shabby looking. Recreation department crews yesterday finished sanding and repainting the sign. It was moved to the lawn immediately souh of the Customs and Immigration buUding. * * * DUFFERS FROM ALL POINTS TO PL AY* BALL Plans are well underway for the second annual Duffers BaU Tournament in Abbotsford. Teams from aU over British Columbia are expected to'take part in the double knockout tournament and compete for the Challenge Trophy. The Abbotsford Duffers club sponsored the tournament for the first time.last year and had* 8 entries. Entries this year are expected to exceed 12 teams. Games wiU be played September 5, 6 and 7 at the Centennial and the MUl Lake ball parks. * * * THIEVES STRIKE AGAIN Thieves struck again in Abbotsford VUlage. A total of 70 doUars loss is reported at an Abbotsford hotel in which the money was taken from the till during the early morning hours. Thieves were not too success, ful in a break in at Totem Signs. The loss is reported at five dollars from the petty cash drawer. Entry to the buUding was gained through a back window. Abbotsford RCMP are investigating these two and also the break in at the Abbotsford credit union. * * * SUMAS PROTESTS HIGH HIGHWAY SPEEDS Sumas municipality has formally protested the traffic speed limit and lack of safety factors on the Trans Canada Highway in the municipality. In a letter to the Attorney General's department councU state there is evidence that many moto- rists are constantly exceeding the new 70 mUes per hour limit. It is felt this should be closely checked and controUed by radar. Level crossings were also commented upon. The letter said that the situation could be controUed and alleviated by lowering of the speed limit to 60 mUes per hour or by constructing overpasses. * * * STORM SEWERS CREATE PROBLEMS Abbotsford ViUage commission will ask for further discussion with Matsqui municipal councU before granting a request to purchase land. Matsqui applied for purchase of 1.96 acres of land adjacent to McCallum road and Switzer road with a suggested purchase price of 15CJ0 dollars. VUlage commissioners, at last night's meeting felt they should know what use the property is wanted for, before selling. The problem of drainage in the VUlage was discussed and it was felt that Matsqui should be acquainted with the matter. The vUlage storm drains are all ready hard put to accommodate the runoff after heavy rains. Ii the portion in question was pur- chased for use as part of a shopping centre and paved, the runoff would be exceedingly greater. One commissioner felt that any. one planning a project which would add to the load in Abbots, ford should, be responsible for the added expenditure in making the drains larger. * * * M. S. A. SEWER LAGOON ALMOST COMPLETED Work is weU on its way to completion on the sewage lagoon for the MSA sewer system. Near, ly 4000 units of sawdust have been laid around the lagoon and workers are now lining and sealing with a clay mixture. This wttl be followed with the re. mainder of 7000 units of saw. dust and final sealing. The two lagoons are ten acres each. An immediate start is prophesied for trunk laying in tbe low areas of the district. MSA Joint sewers committee officials and engineers will inspect the project August 28. * * * * MORE PARKING METERS FOR ABBOTSFORD Shoppers, and businessmen in Abbotsford vUlage can look for more parking meters to be in- staUed. A total of 25 doubles and 4 singles have been delivered to the village to add to the present number. The commissioners were told last night that the present-meters have cost an esti mated $21,000 and after 7 years of service many are in need of repairs. There are approximately 125 doubles and 10 single meters in the vUlage at the present time. The location for the new meters was left to the discretion of Com. missioner Len Saxbee. * * * The directors of the B. C. Egg Producers Association have refuted statements made by what is reported as unidentified producers against producer control of egg prices. The directors state that con* trary to reports, they are acting on behalf of a majority of the membership. In early 1963 a survey showed that of 300 producers only 20 were opposed to a marketing board. It is reported that none of the money coUected from the one cent per bird fowl assessment will be used for promotion of a marketing board. All contribution above an original three dollars are used in for egg promotions. President of the association John Friesen states that if statements that the directors are working for a minority are true, it hasn't been shown at any of the meetings held. CHILDRENS PROGRAM ENTERS LAST WEEK The last week of a six weei. program is being entered into by youngsters of the MSA districts. The annual Summer playground program sponsored by the Abbotsford Recreation Commission has attracted 115 youngsters between the ages of 4 and. 7 years. The program consisting of games, story telling and hikes has been carried on from the JubUee Park. A total of four supervisors led the project. * * * RIDGEDALE GUN CLUB WIN TROPHY Four clubs competed in an in- terclub trapshoot held at the MSA Rod and Gun club grounds. The trophy was won by the Ridgedale club with a score of 109 out of a possible 125. The Ridgedale team was composed of BUI Farr, Harold White, Pete Sward, Don Gustafson and Don Harper. High score was a tie between Babe Harris of the MSA Club and Don Harper of Ridgedale with scores of 24 out of 25. In a shoot off Babe Harris took first place. Second place in the shoot went to the MSA club with 106 out of 125. * * * ALDERGROVE WOMAN IN CAR CRASH Five hundred doUars damage was caused in a two carcolli- ssion Saturday in Matsqui. The mishap occurred when a car driven by Marion Keyes of *- Aldergrove slowed at the entran. ce of the Trans Canada Highway at Clearbrook. An auto driven by Thomas Rabbitt ot Clearbrook faUed to stop and crashed into the rear end of the Keyes vehicle. Matsqui municipal police are investigating the incident.

Find the job or the service that can express your talents, and DEAR DORIS : My boy friend and I are both 21 and we plan to be married in two years. But my mother doesn't like my Victor. She thinks he is cheap and tells this all over the neighborhood. The reason she says this is because he was out of work at the time of my birthday and could not afford a present for me. She said she felt horrible when anyone asked her what Vic gave me for my birthday. How does she think he feels? He helped Dad build an addition to the house and always fixes little things that go wrong with the car. He has done countless errands for the family. LOVING HIM DEAR LOVING : You know what such talk makes her, don't you? A cheap future ma-in-law! Help with building, doing errands, fixing the car - all are good husband-habits. If he's also making hay about a career, get your Dad on your side and stick with your man. DEAR DORIS : A letter has come telling me of the death of a girl I wrote to quite often. I sent a letter to , her mother. But I would like her parents to know I have not forgotten their daughter and would like to send flowers for her grave on her birthday or Christmas, but she was cremated. What do you suggest? IN MEMORY DEAR IN MEMORY : Say it with flowers - to the living! A bouquet or plant sent at Christmas time with a card: "To Mr. and Mrs. Brown, with loving memories", would be a nice way of saying you miss your friend. DEAR DORIS : Ever since we were married my husband has placed his mcther between us. We were living with her and I had to leave because the doctor was afraid of a nervous breakdown. My dear husband stayed with mother. "Mental cruelty" are the only words I can use in our marriage. I need to get the courage to live and, really, I don't know how to go about it. LONESOME DEAR LONESOME : Your Mama's Boy thought he promised to love and cherish, not you, but his deliberately lose yourself in it. The hurt will get less with time. DEAR DORIS : In being bridesmaid is it proper to wear high heeled shoes when your best man is going to be slightly shorter than yourself? Would lower heeled shoes be better on such an occasion? TALL ONE DEAR TALL : You might find a compromise in a not- quite-spike heel. But don't spoil your costume trying to shrink. SHOES' CAUSE ACCIDENT A shoe that needed fixing caused an estimated five hundred doUars damage in a two car col- lission yesterday in Matsqui. Lucina James of McKee road stated she stopped her car on the Old Clayburn road to fix a shoe when the mishap occured. An auto driven by Edward Fast failed to stop in time and crashed into the rear of the James vehicle. Matsqui municipal police are investigating the incident.

WINTER WORK PROGRAM Matsqui municipal council is writing to the department of municipal affairs to again protest the change in provincial assistance to winter works projects. Council received a letter from the Union of B. C. Municipalities which reported that the executive had protested the change and asked the government to rescind the new action. An alternate proposal was to postpone the move for one year as most councils have all ready set budgets for this year's New Name For Highway? Highways Minister Phil Gaglar- di says the new Trans Canada Highway already has a name. He told the Fraser VaUey Tourist Association the freeway is officiaUy known as the Trans Canada Highway. The Associa- tion had asked the Minister for permission to run a contest aimed at producing a suitable name for the 70-mile highway from Van- couver to Bridal Falls. Gaglardi replied that even if another name is suggested, the freeway would still have to be regarded as the Fraser VaUey section the Fraser Valley section of the Trans Canada Highway or some such combination. Association President Doug Shaw, of ChiUiwack, says his group stiU hopes for a distinctive name and will discuss the matter further, . .

LANGLEY OKS STOCK CAR RACING A stock car racing track will be allowed in Langley Municipality. Councillor Walter Jensen told Council that if racing is to be allowed in the district, the proposed location, in the southern part of the Municipality, is the site. Reeve Poppy told Council that problems encountered with a similar operation in Haney should be considered before a decision is made. He said the RCMP have reported that increased traffic in the area will inevitably cause some problems if the ap-. plication is approved. The RCMP also reported that problems could arise from an undesirable element that might tend to frequent the raceway. However, in view of the fact that no public protests were made from residents in the area proposed, and after discussion of all aspects of the application, Council decided to give the green light to the stock car operation. MINISTER CONSIDER FAIR GRANTS The minister of agriculture the Honorable Frank Richter has stated he will give consideration to the matter of drawing up new policy for fair grants. Doug Taylor and L. J. Kettle president and secretary of the Central Fraser Valley Fairs Association outlined the problem of raising funds for building. They said that since austerity had been in effect fairs have had to use maintenance grants for buildings. »As a result the buildings on fair grounds are not being kept up properly Mr. Taylor reported. Mr. Richter said that there is no policy laid down and that he would give consideration to 1 •'the matter as it is province wide. Women are safer pedestrians than men, says the B. C. Automobile Association. The BCAA bases this controversial statement on information contained in the new "Manual on Pedestrian Safety" just published by the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety. An estimated 70 per cent of all victims pedestrian traffic accidents are men, says the manual. Other information in the fact- crammed publication: Of the adult pedestrians killed in accidents 23 out of 100 had been drinking. Two out of every three pede. strians killed in traffic violated a traffic law or committed an obviously unsafe act. Out of every 100 adult pede- strians killed in traffic 38 are over 64 years of age.

He deserves a lot of credit for the way he stands the strain as the bunk he has to swallow would drive most di us insane. He must pay the highest license he must pay the highest rent, He must settle with the agents though he don't take in a cent, And when it comes to paying bills he his Johnny on the spot He'll pay for what he sells you whether you paV him or not. And when you walk into his place he will greet you with a smile Be you a workerman dressed in overalls or banker dressed in style. Be you Irish, Dutch or French it doesn't matter what He'll treat you like a gentleman unless you prove you're not. He must listen to your arguments that happen in the place And show no partiality for any creed or race. The bunch outside can knock the King, the Kaiser or the Czar. But he has to be neutral does the man behind the bar. It matters not the aches and pains and hardship he endures, He doesn't tell you his troubles though you always tell him yours. And if the weather is hot or cold or turns from rain to snow Its up to you to tell him so, he aint suppose to know. Should he sit down to read the news some fool with half a jag Pulls up a chair beside him and begins to chew the rag. Though Job they say t\ad patience a more patient man by far Than Job could ever be is the man behind the bar. Yet preachers in the pulpit and lecturers in the hails Will tell you that the churches are against him one and all. But when the church decides to hold the fair or bazaar They start selling tickets to "the man behind the bar". Yet the time will come when he must shuffle off this mortal soil Hang up his coat and apron no more on this earth to toll When St. Peter sees him coming he will leave the gates ajar Foivhe knows he has had his hell on earth "The man 1 Norman Henderson, Mr. and Mrs. R.

THE CENTRAL FRASER VALLEY ECHO Page 11 iftf AROUND TOWN Owing to some reason presently unknown and utterly beyond our meagre comprehension, the Susies' Sallies column was unavailable for our last issue. Weill NOTexactly the last, but rather the previous. * * * Art Dingley of Aldergrove brought a large cactus dahlia into the office of the ECHO for us to see. The dahlia was really two dahlias on one stem that had grown back to back in a single unit. One of those freaks that arise in nature once In a while. The dahlia was grown by Mrs. Humphries Of Jackman Rd. Aldergrove. * * * Mr. and Mrs. Art Dingley of Art's Pastry shop are starting their annual vacation on August 24th. They will return in time to open the shop on September 15th. * * * A disappointing sequence tothe 'appreciation day draw' was the absence of our featured singers. These two men, Rowley and McPherson apparently fled the country when the need was greatest. We'll try and get them on tape, or the tape on them. * * * The bowling season ls about to begin to commence. Now ls the time to' give that ball an extra wipe, both sides. * * * The thrill of a lifetime comes when one of your children makes outstanding achievements on a baseball team or in school work', or swimming. In moments of this kind the, parential pride is at its zenith and rightly so. * * * Dont like to mention the fact that lt won't be long before the schools open for the Fall term. Methinks the kids will be happy and the parents will be broke. Imagine new shoes for eighteeen youngsters or even for two or three, and all those clothes. Oh, well I Life is inclined to be short. * » * A man's most valuable asset is his wife. Some men may go as far as to admit it. How about you? Pal. * * * When was the last time you kissed your wife? Chum, Try it. It's fun! * * .* Sometimes wonder if the morals of some of our children could be improved or should we leave them in line with our own. * * * There are two things that can control a man's productivity, energy and intelligence. What's holding you up? * * * Dont ask us to destroy our ethics, we havent many left. « * * Hear tell that Aldergrove will again have its own "Fair" for one day on Saturday, September, 19th. The Fair Board are all set to go with a great big bang- up program far beyond anything In the past. This ls some pun you cant miss. * * * . As tbe editorial staff, that's I, are subject to the whims of our subscribers and as each subscriber has differing views as to the contents of the paper, we have lnsteredapoem, if one might call lt that, in another column. The poem ls entitled "The Man Behind the Bar" and ls not a product of the infamous "ECHO". -*- • * , ■* -. By Tom Gascoigne Had my car washed in Burnaby in one of those automats. Took them six minutes from the time the car entered the building until it came out at the other end. There ls a corridor, where the owner of the car being washed, can see the full operation. Cost was a dollar and six bits. No waiting, no fuss, no muss. • * • The morals of a ^Community' must be reflected In the morals of those who in their youthful years look to us for examples. • • * Mrs. Dorsal Finn, a well known philosopher of the present time, says, "The reason we die is because we alnt fit to live." ♦ • * Now that the Municipality of Langley, or I should say, the Councillors, have seen a dim light about the necessity of parks for the weary and despondent we hear they Immediately locked up the one they purchased, possibly with the idea of keeping people out. There couldnt be any other reason, could there? • • • Sure the 'Councils' hate me, who wouldnt? * • * The misspelled words in our last Issue of the 'ECHO' are due entirely to the lack of sunshine, a shortage of type and a lousy editor. What can we do about lt? * * • May as well admit that I hid under the counter when a certain lady who works in a real estate office came in. That picture I took of her fairly haunts me, and I'm a coward, too. • * * If you're inclined to wonder why 'Glen's Beauty Parlor'was closed for a couple of days inthe past week, we'll tell you. He 'up' and went fishing. So help me, he did. Saw a sign in a restaurant the other day. It read; "Eat here, help stamp out home cooking". * * * Talked to Jim Hall, provincial agricultural man, and in charge of the 4H-ers at the Otter Do. Met a couple of men hadn't seen for years, too. One was Ron Tarves of C.B.C. the others, John Farquhar, who has spent many years with the' youngglers in 4H work. John is an unassuming man and deserves a great deal of credit. * * * The Chilliwach man who was the judge of the calf contest at Otter, forgive me, cant remember his name, has a terrific personality. Handles his Job with the animals with worthy precision and which is better still, his handling of the young contestants was a masterpiece. I'm sure the youngsters learned a good deal about showmanship. » « » Been given the nod by a certain lady who works for a certain real estate company. We are to be allowed to take her picture once again. If the picture taken lsnt any better than the last one, well resign in a body. Here's hoping. Sometimes we Imagine this paper stinks a little. Other times we are sure of it. * • * Hayes Nursery, up the highway a little, have presented the ECHO with a big bucket of flowers that now grace our window.

THE BLUE JAY The intermediate boat that can be built to provide fun for every member of the family and in which three or four can sail is not an easy boat to find. One that comes close to answering this requirement is the 13-foot Blue Jay. Designed by the New York firm of Sparkman and Stephens, naval architects who have designed^hundreds of fine yachts Including American's Cup champions, the Blue Jay is handy, fast and safe. Designed for marine grade fir plywood construction, she has straightforward no-nonsense Unes, and, because 'she's especially Intended for plywood, she's easy to build. Although she was a trainer for Juniors when first designed, the adults like her so much they were soon racing and sailing her. The Blue Jay carries 90 square feet of sail exclusive of the spinnaker which not all Blue Jays carry. In B.C. the Blue Jay can be built for around $375. They have been used by many clubs as Junior trainers in club Instruction programs. West Vancouver Yacht Club used them for Its first Junior training scheme and built the club's first boats as a Junior winter project. One of the beauties of the Blue Jay design is that it lends itself to such group projects. They have been built by Boy Scout groups as well as boating clubs. Often when a group builds they built an extra one ,or two and seU the extras to finance" the others. In such groups, the skiUed help and instruct the unskilled. Co-operation of aU hands makes for worthwhUe winter evenings with something concrete to show for the time and effort expended. By polling tools as well as skills the amateurs often And the have faculties at their disposal that wouldnt be available to a small boat yard. Blue Jays are being used as trainers by the Royal Canadian Sea Cadets. They have easy to handle sails" that even the young can manage but are stiU fast and fun to sail, in light airs they move easUy but they can stand up to a stiff blow. First of these plywood centreboard craft was built in 1948 and the International Blue Jay Class formed in 1954. Blue Jay dur- abUlty is proven by the fact that boats number one and two are stiU sailing. For those without time, tools or skills to do the complete buUding of the Blue Jay several Arms offer them in kit form which, whUe putting up the cost, cuts down in time and sklU needed to build. I wUl be glad to answer any written questions on the Blue Jay or other written questions of general boating interest. Just write Rex Neptune, P. O. Box 2123, Vancouver 3, B. C.

Mr. Dekker, who is also President of the National Automobile Underwriters Association, pointed out that a tendency to treat youthful drivers brusquely when they are applying for insurance may well prejudice their future attitude toward the industry. In many cases, he declared in a presidential report to the Association, the parents also react when their children receive such treatment. The cumulative ef.'eit of alienating these people will, in time, come back to haunt the insurance industry, Mr. Dekker said. "I'M TORN BETWEEN FEEtING PROUD OR SCREAMING..."

NEEDS AND EXPECTATIONS The annual Pacific National Exhibition gets off to a grand and glittering start Aug. 22. The 1964 PNE Parade shapes up as one of tbe most outstanding in the history of this traditional event. Parade officials this year sacrificed quantity for quality and they've achieved tbat aim. The boisterous, brassy and beautiful kickoff to the two-week Continental Carnival Fair, encompassing more than 1,500 people, starts at Burrard and Georgia and travels north on Burrard to Hastings and east on Hastings to Vernon Drive : a 2.2 ■ mile route expected to be lined with hundreds of thousands of spectators. The crowds and the national television audience - both the CBC and CTV are covering the event • will se a parade which will take an hour and a half to pass any given point. The mobile extravaganza, typifying the PNE's Continental Carnival theme, will feature 43 floats, 24 civilian and seven military bands, eight horse units plus a host of other entries. Premier W. A. C. Bennett, who will officially open the Fair, and Mr. H. W. Mulholland, the PNE president, will ride in the first official car at the head of the parade. Mrs. Bennet and Vancouver mayor W. G. Rathie wiU ride in the second car; Mrs. Mulholland In the third. One spectacular entry is the Babes in Toyland float entered by the Seattle University district Chamber of Commerce. The float is preceded by a 17-piece toy soldier band play, ing such tunes as the March of Toys and the March of the Wooden Soldiers, Then the float itself: a mag- nificent combination of fluorescent colors along its 56-foot length, 14-foot width and 12-foot height. The float, based on Walt Dis- ney's Babes in Toyland movie, has as passengers the Fairy Queen, Little Miss Muffet, Red Riding Hood, Little Bo Peep and Jack and the Beanstalk. The float was built by volunteers and has won major awards in every parade it has entered, including the prestigious Judges' Trophy in Seattle's Grand Sea- fair Parade. Other high-calibre entries from south of the border: The Astoria, Ore., Clowns, a group of 20 business and professional men (lawyers, doctors, dentists) who participate in parades free of charge. Their payment: the smiles and the laughs they bring to youngsters a- long the parade route. The Seattle Policy Motorcycle Drill Team is returning, as well as the Greater Seattle, Inc., float and the crack Greater Seattle high school band. And a precise and accomplished military unit, the Travis Sabres of the 1501 Air Transport Wing, Honor Flight Command, Travis Air Force Base, Calif., will de- monstrate precision marching - 45 military policemen with chrome helmets and bayonets. Their band features chrome bugles. Many Shrine patrols and bands will be spotted throughout the parade, including the Nile Drum and Bugle band from Seattle. A smart girl's drum and bugle band from Cranbrook, winner of many major prizes, is another feature, and 15-year-old Charlotte Jonah ls another. This youngster has been a baton twir- ler since she was four, and has won gold medals at the Seattle World's Fair. The Vancouver City Police Department has entered its largest contingent ever: motorcycle team (drill team), pipe band, marching detachment, horses from the Stanley Park detachment, and police dogs. The new police boat will be shown on a trailer, and the Investigation vehicle used at the scene of major crimes. Many of the attractions from the PNE's big Empire Stadium Shew also will be included in the parade: The Rocket Man, who can whisk through the air at speeds up to 60 miles per hour; Mandrake the Magician, who saws a woman In half with a band-saw, Chuck Beeler and his Hollywood motor maniacs, and many others. This is a parade, in short, which has everything. And PNE officials, in an effort to avert post-parade traffic jams have devoted countless hours studying and planning the dispersal of units at the Hastings and Vernon Drive break-up site. Special marshalls will handle this task. The wood utilization problems of today are more difficult than those of the past and are likely to become even more difficult ]n the future. They center on increasing the serviceability of wood products, on developing new uses for wood, and on improving its quality. To solve these problems requires more basic Information - information on wood anatomy, heat and moisture relationships, strength characteristics, wood chemistry, and the mechanics oi reactions oi biological and chemical agents on wood substances, to name a few. As a result of this basic knowledge, we expect the future to show a greater variety of wood products in use, with less of the tree going to waste, and more of hitherto unused species finding a place in forest industries. In short, the future of this renewable resource is limited only by man's Ingenuity in finding more and better uses for it. Good forest management can increase the growth and quality of timber. Research can be depended on to transform lt in numerous practical, profitable and as yet undreamed of ways. r AUTO SAFETY INSPECTION Aldergrove Shell Service GOODYEAR TIRES — EXIDE BATTERIES Phone 856-2821 Fred Dams Nights 856-2833 OVER 5V_ MILLION PIGS IN CANADA Canada's hog population at June 1, 1964, totalled 5,620,000 head. This is an 8% rise from the 5,210,000 head of a year ago, according to the latest DBS survey. Generally, hog numbers appear to still be on the Increase except for Quebec. The hog population in Eastern Canada increased 2% and totalled 3,256,000 The West showed an 18% gain over last year at this time, totalling 2,364,000. The gain was quite uniformly spread over the Prairie Provinces, but amounted to only 5% in B. C. The spring pig crop was 8% higher this year than last year with increases of 21% in the West and 1% in the East. These increases are pretty well in line with farmers' intentions as indicated at the start of the year, except for a little smaller - than • expected rise in the East. CATTLE POPULATION RISES The number of cattle and calves on farms In Canada at June 1, 1964, was approximately 12.8 million head. This is 4.2% high- er than one year ago, according to the Dominion Bureau of Statistics. The rate of increase of 4.2% is greater than the rate of in. crease of 3.1% at the end of 1963. During 1961 and 1962, the cattle population expanded at an annual rate of 2 to 2 1/2% Prior to that time, the rate of increase bad been about 4%, si. milar to the present rate of growth. Since a .year ago, increases have occurred in all provinces but New Brunswick. The East rose 1.1% and the West gained 6.8%. The net Increase was entirely In beef cattle and calves. The number of beef cows increased 8% to reach 2.7 million head. Beef heifers and steers increased 9.5% and 12.1% respectively to add up a combined total of 2.7 million head (same as cows). This gain reflects a substantial increase In cattle on feed. Milk cow numbers stayed about the same with only a slight,decrease reported. Sheep and lambs continued their downward trend, dropping 4% from a year ago, to a total of less than 1.3 million. Horses also continued to decline and totalled only 423,700 head, down 5% from last year. Fall farrowing intentions seem to be headed for about a 6% gain over a year ago. No significant change from last year is expected in the East due to a 7% decline in Quebec. While a 17% rise is expected in the West this may be modified to some extent because drought con. ditions have persisted over considerable parts of the hog producing areas in Saskatchewan and Alberta since this survey was carried out at June 1st. >v- *m 1 * i m *r*pr USED CARS Never So Much . . .
