Tel representative Frank Bogle. The results of the latest returns indicate the same general trend as the forms first submitted, says Liber. More than 90 percent in favor of the metropolitan 'free calling' area to be extended to take in the 856-telephone exchange. Since October 13, when the first 1,000 ballots were handed to Bogle at a chamber function, another few hundred have come in, Liber says. And they are still coming, although the pace has slowed somewhat from the about 50-a-day returned shortly after the ads first appeared. B.C. Tel's district office in Abbotsford is currently studying the survey forms and comments made by local telephone subscribers. Fat cat bureaucrats all, says mayor Telephone exchange a separatist line? MURRAYVILLE - "They're all a bunch of fat cats," said the mayor. Aid. Jim Lee. however, compared the Greater Vancouver regional district to an octopus. "1 can see the tentacles reach, ing out here from the GVRD," he said. "They want regional government from Vancouver to Hope,'* said Mayor George Driediger. "It's just another big. fat bureaucracy." GVRD has urged the provincial government not to exclude 1,720 acres in the Chilliwack township from Ihc agricultural land reserve. City developers there wanted the land to the southwest of the city included in the urban area. GVRD wanted the land left in the reserve. "What have Ihey (GVRD) got to do with Chilliwack, anyway?" asked Driediger. "The last thing we want to happen is their planners coming out here (to Langley or the Fraser Valley) telling us what to do." Aid. Bill Blair said the only connection Langley and other member municipalities of the Central Fraser Valley regional district had wilh GVRD was through the parks board. Langley is a member of the Greater Vancovuer regional parks board. ALDERGROVE — One alderman moved receipt of a letter from the local chamber of commerce outlining the results of a recently conducted telephone survey here, West Matsqui will develop on its own, says Brady MATSQUI — Seeking re-election to district council this year, Bradner resident Bob Brady says he is In favor of Ihe Matsqui portion of Aldergrove to develop on its own, without any help from Langley district. "We must keep control and when the sewers are Installed Into West Matsqui we must see to It that, the lines are extended into the Sun Valley Crescent subdivision, enabling us to clean up the mess down there," Brady says. Brady also Is In favor of a new sewage disposal plant being built by the Fraser River on the Matsqui Prairie, and the lagoons off the Abbotsford-Misslon High way should then be filled in and the property be developed into an agricultural-oriented industrial a- rea. The railroad tracks are already nearby. Private enterprise should be encouraged to build an office complex of up to six stories where the present municipal works yard is located, Brady says. The new works yard on Kjng Road'should soon be operational. The district municipality could then rent space required In this office complex, he says. Brady would also like to see the provincial government's works yard moved from the corner of Gladwin and Fraser to property north of King Road. Truckers' coffee breaks call down mayor's ire LANGLEY — There is a "considerate amount of coffee-shopping going on" whenever the district municipality hires independent truckers to haul material on an hourly basis, Mayor George Drie diger said Monday afternoon. Driediger said he had received complaints from local taxpayers who had watched the drivers sit around drinking coffee for up to half an hour in a stretch while An old established business In Aldergrove changed hendi lasl week when Gordon Dami turned ovar the kaya to the Aldergrove Services to Stan Oilman, the manager for Mohawk.

Sometimes this weak th* Shall signs will be exchanged wilh those ol Mohawk and Tony Haalwanter, manager lor the Aldergrove Mohawk station welcome your patronage. they should be hauling gravel to the road building projects. "We had a lot of pressure put on us by the Independent truckers when they came to us and asked that local drivers be given preference over outsiders," said Driediger. "1 don't think this is playing ball at all." The mayor said the owner- operators were being paid S24 an hour for driver and 12-yard load dump truck. He told council that a confidential report showed the independent truckers only averaging 9'/i loads during an 8-hour day, while the municipality's own employees driving public works trucks averaged 12 loads. Why did the municipality pay the truckers by the hour, anyway? asked Aid. Elf Nundal. Private citizens ordering gravel did not pay by the hour but rather by the load, he said. The report was forwarded to discussions in a sub-committee. Council also approved the construction of a gravel type sidewalk in Northwest langley, but since there is no more money left in this year's budget 'the funding will have to come out of 'maintenance', aldermen decided. The sidewalk was estimated by municipal engineer Doug Kenyon to cost in the neighborhood of $35,000. Wouldn't it be possible just to build a 'walking trail' for say $4,000 or 55,000? asked Aid. Jim Lee. "One dollar a foot?" said Kenyon. "No way." Why not? asked Aid. Dan' Kitsul, a road building contractor. Thirty-foot wide roads could be built for S3 a running foot, he stated. Kenyon said tiling would also have to be done before the sidewalk was put it, and this was included in the overall cost. 18-Inch dralntile cost about J9 a foot In place, he said, or $4 alone for the material. another councilman moved support. "Would you like to tell B.C. Tel (about your support)?" asked the former; Aid. Jock Lindsay. "Why not?" asked the latter, Aid. .Bill Blair. "If there is one thing that has always helped to divide this municipality, it is the invisible border at 240 Street (the western most reach of the Aldergrove 856- tclephone exchange)," Blair said. "I'm all in favor," said Lindsay, apparently changing his mind. Blair said he though Langley district council should send "a good, hot letter to B.C. Tel" advising this privately-owned utility that council was four-square behind the chamber-initiated action to get the Aldergrove exchange included in the metropolitan 'free calling' area.■-' '**. i Aid. Jim-Lee supported his motion and it was'carried by council. The letter from chamber secretary Walt Liber reas as follows: "Enclosed are recorded statistics from the Aldergrove & District Chamber of Commerce questonnaire "Do You Want Aldergrove Included in Free Calling Area?" "The national averages of questionnaire returns are 16.5 percent. Our questionnaire return is 16 percent. The "Free Calling Area" questionnaire shows that 90 percent are in favor, 3.5 percent not in favor and 6.5 percent no comment. Our questionnaire shews an average of 9' long distance phone calls per month per home in the 856- exchange and 4 long distance calls made at Langley free calling area. From these 9 long distance calls we estimate the average phone bill in the Aldergrove exchange is $9.00 above the monthly charge. This brings the average phone bill to $15.20 per month. The estimated long distance revenue received per year from the 4,700 phones in the 856- exchange is $507,600.00 per year. Items HI and #3 of our questionnaire show 77 percent of the 856-exchange people make calls to Cloverdale, Newton, Whalley, New Westminster, Burnaby and Vancouver. The last question in our questionnaire shows 85 percent In favor of a slightly higher rate than the new rate should be in line with the Langley and Haney increase when free calling was instituted there. "The Aldergrove & District Chamber of Commerce have also received private petitions placed in local stores which show 618 people In favor of free calling for Aldergrove. Members of the Chamber have also received numerous phone calls in favor of free calling for Aldergrove as well as the public expressing their view on the quality of the telephone service and on the long distance phone costs to Whalley, Cloverdale, Newton, New Westminster, Burnaby and Vancouver. "In view of the statistics provided, the Aldergrove & District Chamber of Commerce request support from the Mayor and Council of Langley Municipality that Aldergrove be included in the free calling area. With the anticipated increase in population for Aldergrove, we feel that new Aldergrove business, industrial and residential developments to develop site installations in conjunction with all of Langley Municipality in having a free calling system to the Lower Mainland." **%&£ am mi .

Merylln Anderson photo Two local men seek seats And you that, Bob MURRAYVILLE — The response was not slow in coming. "About that article of last week where you quoted (advisory planning commission chairman Bob) Hubbard," Aid. Dan Kitsul told a Star reporter this week. "Well, he (Hubbard) is totally incapable of conducting a meeting. That's his whole problem. And you can quote me on that." Instead of just one token aldermanic representative on the commission — as suggested by Hubbard when he turned in his recent resignation, there should be at least six present at all times, Kitsul said. Hubbard had walked out of a meeting citing "noisy and disruptive" aldermen as the cause, Later, in a telephone call to The Star, he narrowed the charge down to only one councilor, namely Dan Kitsul. Hubbard also charged Kitsul andfellow councilmen Art Brooks and Jim Lee with trying to hamstring the commission by "railroading through" a motion in council to the effect that the APC would have to seek council's specific approval in any case where the commissioners would want to seek outside information. Hubbard said this motion was passed shortly after he contacted health minister (and Langley MLA) Bob McClelland's office for a piece of information concerning the government's policies in regards to zoning regulations in Langley. The APC meetings are closed to the public and press. Matsqui nominations now closed ALDERGROVE — Two local men arc among the nine candidates seeking three Langley district aldermanic seats to be vacated on November 20. They are Dennis Rankin, of 24923 - 20 Avenue, an educational researcher, and John Charles Pybus. of 26603 • 13 Avenue, an insurance agent.

LANGLEY — Pilots and aircraft owners using the municipal airport east of here arc not satisfied with their windsock. It appears the bag, mounted on a pole at the end of the runway near Fraser Way, is not regimentation type. It shows the direction of the wind, alright, the main function of an airsock, but the color is not r.ight. The color shows the port as being unlicensed. Councilors on the Murrayville hill discussed at great length Monday afternoon how to solve the problem. One alderman suggested that a windsock was unnecessary in the first place since many pilots flew by 'the scat of their pants'. Others used a wet thumb stuck into the air. Another alderman suggested that a pair of Stanfield underwear or women's pantyhose mounted on a bean pole might well serve 'Unfair advantage' by police cited LANGLEY — The local RCMP are "really taking unfair advantage" of motorists coming east on Fraser Highway and speeding up on the long level stretch south of the municipal airport in order to make the Murrayville hill at a good clip, a district alderman said Monday afternoon. Aid. Bill Blair, who lives just opposite the airport, said the police are really waiting there to catch people exceeding the new speed limit of 40 mph. Blair said he "don't want to try influencing the police in the carrying out of their duties" but, on the other hand, they did not have to go after the drivers between Langley city and 244 Street the way they now do. Councilmen were all opposed to the recent lowering of the speed limit along this stretch of the highway. It was done regardless by the provincial highways department following recommendations from the RCMP and independent truckers. The district really has no say in the matter since the highway is a provincial artery. Mayor George Driediger, the owner of a trucking company, agreed with Blair. "If one of my drivers didn't speed up (before going up the Murrayville hill), he'd be out of a job." Driediger said. No way was he going to accept his drivers burning up four gallons of fuel a minute by pulling uphill in low gear, the mayor said. Councilors decided to send a letter to inspector Ted Wilson of the local police detachment. The wording of the letter was not revealed. the purpose. And a third council member, apparently miffed by the pilots' demand, said as far as he was concerned they could have a "genuine homeknitted windsock" in any color they might desire. The pilots, signing a petition for Transport Canada to take over the operation of the port from the municipality for the renumcration of $1 if their demands were not met, listed a number of complaints. Topping the list was the infamous windsock. Also listed were lack of fire fighting and first aid equipment, a need for additional fuel outlets and suitable shelter, washrooms and power supply to some of the hangers. "Let them have their wind, sock," said Mayor George Driediger. Here was a chance for councilors, who often complain about the imbalance between the benefits derived and the costs involved in running the airport, to get out of the business...and they blew it. Instead, plans for retaliation were plotted. "Who are wc catering to, anyhow?" an alderman inquired. A great number of the airport users appeared to be residents of Surrey, New Westminster, Burnaby, Vancouver and North Vancouver. Councilors decided to "investigate" the fee structure at the airport, especially as the fees might apply to pilots from outside the two Langleys. Local residents should have first priority in tieing down their crafts at the port, Driediger said. And since the port is fast approaching capacity, this could mean the exclusion of out-of-town flyers. /■! ' ■' x'l y.ri .. Oat Vi.:?';"/ THE STAR, WEDNESDAY, bCTOBER 27,1976 Pub approved by neighborhood BROOKSWOOD - One of two applications for opening public houses in this south Langley community was recently approved by the neighborhood with a 58.6 percent vote in favor. Langley district council Monday afternoon gave permission to Decade Management to proceed with a formal application to the B.C. liquor control branch for permission to open the first neighborhood pub in the municipality. The site approved by 135 yes votes of 230 ballots returned to municipal hall, is at the southeast corner of 24 Avenue and 200 Street. Some residents of a nearby mobile home park had objected. ' Representing the second applicant, Langley lawyer John MacDonald asked that his client, Bill Kitsul, be allowed to submit his application to Victoria as well. The Kitsul proposal, at 28 Avenue and 200 Street was turned down by 53.7 percent of the 400 neighborhood residents polled. Aid. Jim Lee said he was personally "reluctant to approve one application over the other, DODGE 1-2 TON VAN SI 12.00 Monthly 36 Month lease LANGLEY CHRYSLER LTD. Ph. 534 5355 D. I. No. I080B THURSDAY at 8] ODDFELLOWS HALL, LANGLEY| BRING THIS AD FOR ONE EXTRA CARD* since the results are -so close." He said the four percent difference between a yes and a nay vote only amounted to about 16 votes. He favored that both applications be forwarded to Victoria who then obviously would choose between the two. Speaking for his client, Decade Management, lawyer Gordon Bryenton said he could not see the purpose in this reasoning, and Mayor George Driediger reminded Lee that if any candidate in the upcoming civic election failed to gain a seat by 16 votes, surely he should not then be seated on council anyway. Aldermen Elf Nundal and Jim Lcc supported by Bill Blair moved that Kitsul be allowed to present his case before the liquor board along with the Decade proposal. Aldermen Art Brooks and Jock Lindsay moved contrary. Driediger's vote decided against. "There is no way the council can hanky-pank with the taxpayers time," he said, by allowing an application to proceed that had already been turned down by a majority vote of the neighborhood residents. In his argument for the case, MacDonald had mentioned that the "liquor administration branch docs not require any specific percentage of approval" in order to consider a case. He also told council that "the drawback to secret voting is that people against something arc more apt to vote than people who do not really care one way or the other." It did not help his client. Langley district council has imposed its own set of rules pertaining to applications for the opening of neighborhood pubs. An official survey must be conducted by municipal staff and receive a clear majority before an application is considered. For this survey the applicant pays a fee of $500.

Skate-athon request considered ALDERGROVE — Local Kinsmen have sent a request to Langley district council for a donation of free ice time at the Jackman Road arena for the club's- annual skatc-athon. On a motion made by Aid. Bill Blair Monday afternoon the request was forwarded to the district's arena committee for recommendations. Clerk Derek Doubleday reminded council -that there was no precedent set for donating free ice time to any groups or individuals. In some cases, however, he said, donations were made to offset the cost of ice rental. The Kinsmen's annual skate- athon is organized to raise funds for minor hockey in the area. Elks' request to go to finance committee MATSQUI — The Aldergrove Elk's Lodge has requested that Matsqui grant the $146.40 invoice for gravel used on the Swennson school property, in a community park project. The Elk members, along with the public works superintendent and school board,- arc doing extensive work on the property, on a volunteer basis. Toilets have also been installed on the property. Council forwarded the request to finance committee for consideration, but moved that maintenance of the toilets be the responsibility of the community which uses the park. People come first, says candidate LANGLEY — IDEAL has a new candidate for municipal office. The Independent Electors Association of Langley has endorsed Aldergrove resident Dennis Rankin to run for a seat on the municipal council. Following 10 years of teaching, Rankin is currently working as a research officer with the B.C. Teachers Federation. Rankin feels his two years experience with contract bargaining will be a positive asset if he is elected to council. Rankin. 33, has lived with his wife, a UBC nursing graduate, and his two daughters in the Otter district for the past two and one-half years. "Although I grew up in Vancouver, we have chosen country living," Rankin said. "In fact, I' have aspirations to enter full time farming in the future." Rankin said at the present stage in his life he has "grown dedicated to working for and with people." "To me people are the priori-' ty," he said. {% Corporation of % ^EofowB .up of Jlsngbg DOUGLAS DAY BANQUET WIN be held on Friday, November 19,1976 at 7:30 P.M.

The formation came about through concern generated by the possible exclusion of their land from the provincial agricultural land reserve. The land in question, a total of 3,620 acres, is part of B.C's two percent arable farmland. The MCFDA would hope to be effective in stopping the exclusion before the land is divided into five-acre parcels as proposed by the district representative, says secretary Julie Cowan. MCFDA is similar in scope to the Save the Farmland Association of Chilliwack. Overrun picked up by two Langleys MURRAYVILLE — The Ungley Days Association represented by Langley city businessman Ken Leaney was received favorably in council here Monday afternoon. Leaney said the association's ' objective was to break even in their budgeting but unfortunately the group.was about $2,177 in the hold. A loss of S170 was incurred last year in connection with the Miss Langley pageant ball at the end of the Langley Days celebrations, he said. - Mayor George Driediger recommended that Langley council pick up the deficit. Aid. Bill Blair and Aid. Jock Lindsay moved council share this deficit with Langley city council. Motion was passed. Councilors also extended thanks to the Langley city service clubs of Kinsmen, Lions, Kiwanis and Jaycees for the participating in the yearly event. NO MORE FEE FOR MURRAYVILLE MURRAYVILLE - The district municipality's "days of picking up $7 for owners' septic tank licenses (and letting the provincial health inspector's office to the actual work) arc just about over." Aid. Art Broods told district council here Monday afternoon. Brooks said the health department had decided to do their own policing and also would pick up the license fee themselves. MURRAYVILLE — "We put up recreation facilities, and people abuse them," said Aid. Elford Nundal. "And at the same time the people ast us for more and more (recreation) facilities." Nundal made the comment as councilors were discussing a letter from Jacqueline Oldham of Aldergrove (see letters to the editor October 20) complaining about the exclusion of horseback riders from the South Otter Park. Oldham said that while horseback riding is a widely used sports activity in Langley, it appeared that minority users of Ed Klassen candidate for school trusteeship Ed Klassen, a resident of Aldergrove, has declared himself as a candidate for the upcoming election for school trustee. He is married and has two children. Both he and his wife have grown up in this area. He is presently employed as a senior probation officer in Coquitlam, specializing in juvenile probation and family court counselling services. As a parent and a professional, Klassen has a growing concern that parent-school communication be improved, so that parents will freely share their concerns with the school and vice-versa. Also, Klassen would like to sec the school uphold basic standards of good citizenship and discipline. These standards would include respect for self and others, honesty and integrity. He would also like to see more carefully administered testing to evaluate effectiveness of programs, to encourage students to do their best, and to establish minimum standards of achievement for each grade. Another concern is that the school provide better alternatives for "special" students such as the handicapped, potential drop-outs and slow learners. As a final concern, Klassen would like to see better financial accountability to insure that taxpayer gets the best value for his school tax dollar. Townhouse development okayed ALDERGROVE — Permission to proceed with a 72-unlt townhouse development between 32 Avenue and the Bcrtrand Creek here, was granted by council in Murrayville Monday afternoon. The six-acre development site sandwiched between the residential and commcricararea will have 72 semi-detached,, strata title homes, a municipal planner told council. It will also have a recreational building containing a community hall, kitchen and bathroom facilities and a 400-square foot workshop "where someone can work on a car", said the spokesman. It would also have some of the new tot-lot parks. Planner Stan VanMeer was reminded by Aid. Art Brooks that the creek, where it runs past the intended development, swells to overflow during the winter months. "The creek really got high last December," said Brooks. "It spread all over the fiat land." VanMeer said this would be taken into consideration before the final plans were approved. Developers of the project arc Andy Krebs Construction. a public park, such as picnickers and campers, received preferential treatment when council, by posting signs at the park, shut out the pony clubbers who used to ride in the park 350 days a year. Councilors decided to pass the letter on to the recreation commissioners for a report. Citizens want water WILLOUGHBY — Local residents of this northwest Langley community arc once more putting the pressure on Langley district council for a supply of domestic water. The'Willoughby water committee, a citizens group, this week asked council to include a referendum vote in the November 20 elections. "We have already explained to them that is in no way physically possible," Mayor George Driediger said. CounciUirs decided to send a letter to the committee explaining this. A referendum vote on city water in the Willoughby area can be conducted during the 1977 fall elections, once cost studies have been made, council decided last month. Overseas 'commuter' opts out ALDERGROVE - Bill Tombrink. a local resident who has been seeking an aldermanic scat on Langley district council in the 1974 and 1975 elections — and who almost made it both times — is not running in this year's elections. Bill is presently commuting back and forth to Germany where he is looking after family business interests. Since he has to fly to Europe for a two-week stay about every 'second month, he feels he would not be able to serve efficiently on council. That, he says, made him decide not to run this vear.

If you have no proof of this in the form of a Birth Certificate or a Citizenship Certificate, a delay in obtaining such proof takes' considerable time. This could mean that you have to cancel your trip you were so looking forward to, losing out on a position that would be so beneficial to your future and not being allowed to vote in the next Federal election. Why wait until the need arises. Do it now and apply for your Canadian Identity. If you arc not a Canadian Citizen and with to be naturalized, come on in and join the Canadian family. The Citizenship Registration Branch of the Department of Secretary of State have established mobile services for assisting eligible persons of all ethnic origins in filing applications for Canadian Citizenship or proof of Canadian Citizenship.

J. DOUBLEDAY CLERK-ADMINISTRATOR 41-4105-2 a" ■MMH I 1 OVER THE BACK FENCE THE STAR, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 27.1976 The time Harold formed a school district By IAN CAMERON lt didn't take him long, and as soon as he had hitched the two horses to the democrat the young boy drove off. He carried with him a very official looking document. Eleven-year-old Harold Carr was fully aware of the importance of his mission. He was to drive to every neighboring farm house within a twenty-square mile predetermined area and collect signatures to the petition which he carried with him and which was to he presented to the legislature of the young province of Saskatchewan. It was a request for the provincial governjiicnt to form a school district. The petition had been drawn up by Harold's father, a school teacher-turned-farmer. who had. a few years before, emigrated from Ontario. ll was the same year the Great Wiir broke out in Europe and Canada soon joined the mother country in fighting the Kaiser. I9I4 Saskatchewan had been a province within the Dominion of Canada for less than nine years. Harold's journey was, of course, successful. There was no such thing as a quitter or 4 failure in those days. Resourcefulness, thai was (he thing. "My father and a few of his friends had figured out that there were enough children in the area, by that time." says Carr. "Ten children between the ages of six and 14 were the required minimum." Harold visited everyone living in the widely scattered, thinly- populated community. A lot of Swedes and Norwegians had moved up from the Dakotas and Minnesota in later years, and most of these immigrant-farmers were bachelors. Bul people of loyalist stock — like Carr's parents — had recently moved out from the easl. and some of these had families. "They all had to put iheir signatures down lhat ihey were willing 10 pay taxes," says Carr. And tlicy did. In April of Ihe following year the first school in Aldenburg (the newly created school district) was opened. In 1909 Carr Senior had quil his $275 a year job on ihe Niagara Peninsula and left for the West. In July of the following year Unrest of the family followed. Via Moose Jaw, a community of some K.000 souls al thai time, the family took up residence in a small town south of ihe Old Wives Lake, Later ihey moved lo a sod- shanty on the prairie in (he Assi- niboia region. The MO-acre Carr homestead was acquired from ihe Dominion office for the nominal fee of $.1 an acre. Only 20 acres had been broken by the plough. Carr still remembers when he. as a seven-year-old boy, first arrived at the new home. Different. And the impression it left still remains today, more than 66 years later. That and the hardships. Water. wood, coal. All very necessary commodities, yet' fantastically scarce. Wells were sunk deep into the Coteau plains but failed to produce water fit for human consumption. Salt water flowed from wells lhat were several hundred feet deep. Brackish water from others. The best supply was the lakes, until they ran dry in the •summer time. The Carrs soon learned that they would have lo gel rid of the horses, there simply wasn't water enough for livestock. Crawler tractors replaced the animals, Wood, for buildings, sold by weight. Four cents a pound. And scraps were saved for kindling. Coal could be — and was — dug from pit mines in the area. "And if someone came and told you that it was not your coal, the typical answer was; 'Yes, and what arc yon going to do aboul lhat', "Carr says. Nobody was going to freeze in the cold Saskatchewan winter. Not willingly anyway. But Ihe family farm eventually became an efficient wheat- growing operation. A few years after their arrival Harold and his older brother worked 24-hour 'shift' al clearing, ploughing, discing and seeding land. "We seeded an acre in less than eight minutes," says Carr. A new Saskatchewan record, and the neighbors didn't believe their eyes, lt simply couldn't be done. But it was. And eventually the entire section was under cultivation. Looking back on his farming days, Harold Carr has some criticism of federal government policies. "When they (Ottawa) decided to loan anyone who wanted $80 an acre to buy a farm in the west," he says, "they drove the (land) prices right through the ceiling." And now farmers do no longer care if Ihey ever get to own the land they toil, as long as they can meet the large interest payments. The Saskatchewan Wheat Pool emerged, then the Wheat Board. The 1929 crash made young Harold Car reassess the situation and he decided to get out. For several years while the drought of the early 1930s turned the prairie inlo a dust bowl' he 'rode the rails' and worked as a pipefitter in cities and small towns from Maine to California, from Texas lo British Columbia. "I have been everywhere," he says. Freight rate policies laid down by the federal government arc another source of irritation for Carr. "It cosls me as much to send a freightcar load to Alberta as il cosls a man from Ontario or Quebec to ship a load to the same destination," he soys. "The Western Canadian farmer, who depends to a large degree on his export shipments through Vancouver, is being squeezed out of the market." Only one of the many reasons for a growing discontent in the west. The Saskatchewan farmers can only sell their wheat crops at the government's discretion and directions. If they try to peddle some of their surplus privately to cattle feed lots in other provinces they soon receive visits from the RCMP. ' "The boys (RCMP) do not like it, many of them arc farm boys themselves, but they have to do iheir job," Carr reflects. Yet last year the Saskatchewan farmers were granted a three- bushcl-an-acrc quota. A good farm produces morc than 20 bushels an acre in an average year and during a bumper crop season can yield as high as 35 bushels. But the machinery prices keep going up. And the taxes, don'l forget the taxes. harold Carr now lives with his wife Flo, an accomplished artist in oil and acrylics, on LeFeuvre Road. He is president of the West Maisqui Ratepayers Association.

William Richards Bennett, says he can't see the British Columbia seven percent sales tax being reduced — not in the near future, anyway. This time last year the sales tax was five percent. The minute the W. R. Bennett Social Credit government was elected, up went the sales tax by .two percent, thus adding to inflation. It almost makes one wish to live in Alberta where there's no sates tax. We've had a sales tax in British Columbia for nearly 30 years now. There was talk of a sales tax when Liberal John Hart was premier, leading the Coalition government of Liberals and Conservatives. However, Mr. Hart would go for it in no way. - He was no sooner out of the premier's office, by way of resignation, then in came the sales tax, when Liberal Byron Johnson was Coalition premier. It was Conservative Finance Minister Herbert Anscomb who wanted the sales tax morc than anyone else. Thus it was we became saddled with a three percent sales tax, and 1 guess we'll be saddled with it forever. W.A.C. Bennett, then a noisy backbencher determined to wreck Ihe Coalition, which he did, though elected to support it, strenuously opposed the sales tax, going so far to vote against it which was a vote against his own government. The sales tax was one of the reasons he bolted the govern ment, crossing the floor of the House to sit as an independent before, in due course, embracing Social Credit, which catapulted him into the most important job in British Columbia. In the 1952 election campaign, Mr. Bennett said that if elected to lead a new government he'd scrap the sales tax entirely. He was elected, but he didn't get rid of the sales tax, which shows that an oppositionist often changes his mind when he gets into the government. The sales tax business was the first of Mr. Bennett's famous Social Credit "second looks". Instead of junking the sales tax, Bennett the First, cut out hospital insurance premiums and upped the tax to five percent to cover hospitalization. It was a flip-flop of first water, but apparently the people approved since Mr. Bennett was elected over and over again. From time to time, with much fanfare and flourish, he took the- sales tax off certain items such as restaurant meals, books, magazines and newspapers. When David Barrett was first premier, 1 asked him if he'd cut out the sales tax, or at least reduce it. No, he said, once there's a tax like that it always stays. I was shocked because I was so green that I had thought a socialist government would make better life for the citizens. Mr. Barrett turned out to be almost as capitalistic as Mr. Bennett. So there it is; we're stuck with the sales tax and don't you go having any rosy dreams that there'll be any relief from it. ; The Aldergrove Star Established 1957 Published every Wednesday at 27120 Fraser Highway.

Halloween comes second only to Christmas in the eyes of many bright-eyed youngsters as a favorite time of year, and to parents, the cost of goodies to hand out comes second only to the cost of dental work to fill resultant cavities. Some advice for parents and adults, and some advice for children as well, are in order. Parents are asked to ensure their child can see adequately, and be seen. This entails the use of make up in preference to masks with narrow eye slots that can obscure vision, and the use of reflective tape on costumes to increase drivers awareness. Adults are asked to leave a light on during the early evening hours,- and the Canada Safety Council especially asks all Block Parents that can possibly do so to have their signs on view on Halloween night. Children should be instructed: • Not to eat anything until it has been checked over in good light at home. • To walk first one side, then the other, not criss-cross. • To cross only at intersections. • To take a flashlight. ' • To tell parents where they intend going. • To go with friends, or in the case of younger children, with a parent or responsible older brother or sister. All costumes should be of flame-proof material and should not extend below the ankle. Knee length is preferable.

I would be so forlorn not to descry you Down some shining highroad when I came; Walk slowly, dear, and often look behind you And pause to hear if someone calls your name. Two supposedly major events should have been the big news in Ottawa this past week. One was the Speech from the Throne; the other, the national day of protest on October 14. Both fizzled. The real news came in the form of the resignation of James Richardson, the Minister of National Defence and one of the few Liberal Cabinet members from the west. His departure indicates the continuing erosion of support for Mr. Trudeau and his politics by even his closest advisors. Mr. Richardson quit primarily over two issues; bilingualism and the neglect of Western Canada. On the first subject he had this to say: "...it is now apparent that the Government's bilingual program has encountered increasing difficulties with each passing year..,I. totally disagree with locking bilingualism into the Constitution before the Government's bilingual policies have proved to be workable and acceptable." On Western Canada: "I have often been disappointed and also annoyed by the Government's apparent indifference towards what I consider to be the reasonable aspirations of Western Canada." On the economy he had this to say: "I do not believe that the Government has fully recognized and ililized for the common good, the energies and creativity of Canadian entrepreneurs. The bureaucracy is still loo big and Government is still interfering too much in the working of the economy." If all this sounds familiar, it should; Mr. Richardson's statements merely repeat what my colleagues and I have been saying for quite some time. One wonders when Mr. Trudeau will take notice of all this. Clearly, he was undismayed by our opposition to his policies: after all, he is the Government and we arc the Opposition, and that's that. One would have expected some slight concern, sonje sign of recognition, when the national press came out four square against him (when was the last time you read an editorial supporting Mr. Trudeau and his policies?). Certainly when the opinion polls showed the support of the Canadian public for this Liberal government to have reached an all time low. some response was called for. Yet nothing happened. Now Pierre's Cabinet, his hand picked supporters and associates in power, are deserting him in droves. First there was John Turner, the Minister of Finance who disagreed with the Trudeau economic policy. Then Andre Ouellet, over the Judges' Affair, followed by Mitchell Sharp and Bud Drury, worn out in vain attempt to support the unsupport- able. More recently we say the departure of Mr, Bryce Mackasey. who expressed his deep concern over the direction in which the Prime Minister was leading the country. And now Jim Richardson. letters to the Editor Mr. Trudeau now stands largely alone — he has lost the support of the country and of his colleagues in the Liberal Party. His chance to perhaps change all of this, to show some leadership and announce new initiatives for Canada came in the Throne Speech and he blew it. The Speech from the Throne Joe Clark has described the Throne Speech as "carefully empty". Speaking in the House of Commons, he went on to say: "It is not unusual for the Speech from the Throne to be obscure or imprecise, but this speech is much more than that. This speech is misleading...It praises consultation when the government's consistent position has been to act unilaterally. It talks about "a reliance on the market to stimulate growth" when this government, through delays and threats and constant changes, has done more than any other agency to inhibit that kind of growth. "There is no intention evidenced of any change in the substance of policies.. .There Is no program. "My lament is that we have to suffer through (his total lack of leadership for another two years . until the Prime Minister gives the people of Canada a chance to make a fresh start." October 14 Day-of-Protest, Gene* ral Strike, or Whatever: Hailed by the CIC as a resounding success, which is surprising considering less than half of its own membership took part and its protest rallies bombed across the country. At best, a reaffirmation of what we already knew; i.e. organized labor isn't too keen on wage controls, and is unlikely to form a Pierre Trudeau fan club in the near future. But then, who is? Order in the court, order in the court Editor, The Star, Dear Sir, With horror I read about the various goings-on at the two Langley councils. But with horror is mixed a certain amount of mirth. The whole thing reminds me of an old comedy called 'His, hers and ours*. In this particular case it is the mayor of Langley city, Bob Duckworth, who claims they are the household head, — and that, of course, leaves the mayor of Langley municipality George Driediger as the housewife. In fear of being called a male-chauvinist-somethlng-or- other we'll make her a liberated wife with strong convictions of her own. And the various council persons are the children of the marital unions, past and present, of the two spouses, quarclling over the issues and with each other, picking sides, changing their small, dear little minds, playing the parents against each other, and so' on. Now. in most cases the lady in the divorce action which seems to be an open and clear-cut case, gets possession of the house and children. But her being a liberated woman would only get half, while the husband gets the other half on certain conditions. I would most sincerely like to see a judge's decision in the divorce case of Langley vs. Langley. They would be sure to continue their bickering right in front of his honor. And the children would not know which side to take. lt is like a lacrosse ball bouncing around inside a concrete room when it comes to make an attempt at pinning them down on any subject. The judge might, of course, decide to send the offspring to foster homes in order to restore order in the court. Meanwhile, winter's coming on and now. the unhappily married couple can argue over who the snow belongs to and who has to shovel it. At the present time there's some other stuff they could shovel first. Sincerely. BAYOU BARD, Langley Parental involvement the objective Wot really gets me. Pierre (an it gers mc rite HERE!) is that my Thirty Million clams is earmarked mainly fcr "development studies to create a uniform accounting system for the Bolivian mining industry". And wile I am tryin' to figgcr out that corkscrew way of tossln' my money arount, I'll stop jest fer a minute to think about Don Simon lturbi Patino. Don Simon, y'sce. married off his daughter Elena...with a dowry of S22.400.000. This didn't hurt her old man too much, it seems, becus Don Simon was worth 5350.000,000. Y'sec, Pierre, it seems he coined all that mazooma frum total control of Bolivian tin mines. So, before you sign that cheque fer Thirty Million of MY dollars, jest take yur hand frum under the table, so's wc workin' stiffs can know where all the cards isi Bigotry or cultural schizophrenia? Editor, The Star, Dear Sir, Since you have brought up the subject again in your editorial Bilingualism or Separatism, I I suggest we settle for unilingua- lism — neither French nor English — but a non-ambiguous language where one word means one thing. Where concern for one's heritage is not called patriotism in one part of the country and bitgotry in another. Where the "language of one's choice" applies equally when talking to a civil servant or an educator. Where separatism is not sacred when translated Into French, traitorous in English, when it should be blackmail in both. Where rules of human dignity do not forbid us to refer to rapist- murderers as sadists and pigs and yet ignore its common use when referring to the men who protect us from these monsters. Where equal opportunity is not an impossible formula of gender, color, religion, and race as opposed to the rational selection of the best person for the job. Where democracy means that the few conform for the general good rather than the many conceding to the demands of the whining few. Where majority rule means that the majority rules. That in this self-righteous parochial land (which condemns the despotic rule of 250,000 whites in Rhodesia whilst quietly condoning or aiding dictatorial rule of one man — black, white or middle — in in Angola, Russia or Cuba) if the majority wants to speak English only, hang killers, and promote Ihe able,...why shouldn't they? What God-given right have a chosen few got to inflict laws that Ihey don't want under the pre-' mise that it is good for them or they don't know any better. To expect them to humbly accept a law introducing a phoney bicultural society or abolish hanging and on the other hand urge Ihem to rebel over wage controls. Why use all these words when one is enough. Socialism. LINDSAY McPHERSON 26452- 52 Avenue, Aldergrove Editor, The Star, Dear Sir, It is interesting to observe how positively citizens in Langley have responded to the formation of IDEAL (Independent Electors Association of Langley) a new grass roots membership civic political party in Langley. The type of reaction, however, which was not anticipated, was the negative attack of J. Cummins in last week's issue of your paper. Mr. Cummins seemed to imply that IDEAL was part of a scheme by teachers to "Control the schools". Had he cared to check, he would have found that one of the major objectives of IDEAL's education policy is more parental involvement in educational decision-making. Mr. Cummins claimed that IDEAL was "teacher dominated". Had he wished to be fair, he would have stated that on the executive of IDEAL are a businessman, a businesswoman, a travel consultant, an educational researcher, a scientist, a nurse and an accountant besides the two teachers he chose to mention. Since Mr. Cummins is himself a teacher (he didn't bother informing us of that, did he?) he may have done the courtesy to his L.T.A. president, Mr. McLean, of confirming the story reported in the B.C.T.F. Newletter. Had he bothered to talk to Mr. McLean about the matter he would have determined that Mr. McLean was. in fact, misquoted. But then there arc other errors of omission created by Mr. Cummins which questions the credibility of hlw views. There is an IDEAL committee candidate named Allan Crane running but none by the name of Dennis Crane as suggested by Mr. Cummins. Also, the civic election this year is planned for November 20 and not November 19 as suggested by Mr. Cummins. One would think that if Mr. Cummins were going to make the serious charges, he has, that he would get his facts straight and present a fair case. IDEAL is an open membership, organization and it is prepared to engage in dialogue with others in the community concerned with local, municipal, and school issues. The policy of IDEAL was arrived at democratically throug policy committees and membership meetings.

Les Williams 327 Ashland Avenue Winnipeg, Manitoba R3L1L6 MARK'S REMARKS ...Tif for tot By Mark Rose ANYONE LIKE ME who occasionally takes public shots at people through his column can hardly complain if those targeted retaliate by way of letters to the editor. And when one of the walking wounded does so, as Peter Fassbendcr did last week, 1 welcome it because it's good for differing viewpoints to surface for examination, comment and debate. As for Peter's recollections about the position he took at Ihe founding CBL meeting, all I can say is that a year and a half is a long lime and everybody's memory of specific details fades. All of us tend to remember only the things we want to remember of events in the past. There is no doubt in my mind, however, lhat at that first meeting in Liber's Trailer Sales office in the summer of "75 — and as he admits in his letter last week — Fassbendcr was indeed considering running for Ihe mayor's job if he had "the ability and Ihc support." * * * HIS AND CBL'S DECISION not to field a mayoralty candidate, cryptically claims Fassbendcr, "speaks for itself." How does il speak for itself? Was the ability lacking or the support missing? Or. more likely, did other considerations intrude upon that decision? Such as the advice 1 gave to the meeting to the effect lhat the only thing the entry of a CBL mayoralty candidate could contribute by intervening in a race between incumbent Liberal Mayor George Preslon and cx-Socrcd President George Driediger. was to ensure the victory of Driediger. One can only presume lhal the CBL accepted that advice. As it turned out. cx-LVA alderman Walter Jensen ran as an independent third candidate thus full'ul- ling my prophecy. • ** ANOTHER INTERESTING PART in Fassbendcr's loiter was lo Ihe effect lhat membership in CBL by someone wilh my political background would not be in CBL\ best inlerests. that there should be no politics at city hall and that further, if I had come in. lie would have to gel out because of his deep philosophic differences with me. ,| |, This "no politics on city hall" is the usual kind of drivel pushed constantly on the great unwashed public by "non-partisan" spokesmen for fifty years. Only a knave or a fool believes this nonsense. If the non-partisan approach is carried to its logical conclusion il means lhal George Preston, because he once ran for Ihe Liberals, was unsuitable for office, ll means that George Driediger. because of his past connections wilh the provincial Socreds is also unsuitable. It means too. thai ex-Liberal MP Tom Goode. Mayor of Delta should quit, on Fassbendcr's advice and that once-Liberal, and now Socred Cabinet Minister Bill VanderZalm had no right to be Mayor of Surrey. *•• NOW I'M CERTAIN that Peter wouldn't like to malign any of these fine upstanding men because they've chosen to participate in the affairs of their country by active political partisanship. Whal he implies though is just that. Perhaps what he really means is thai fine, upstanding citizens wilh "a sincere desire and commitment to the community and ils residents" (please forgive Peter's English) should offer themselves for local office only if they have never been tainted by the NDP.

Club put in the red by council WEST LANGLEY — It's red lights again for the local community club in their efforts to rebuild the burned-down hall here. The project was granted approval by special order of council served months ago, then the approval by special order of council several months ago. then the approval was withdrawn. When representatives for the club came back to council it was once again given the green light. Then a neighbor came to council saying he did not fancy the return of the hall. Council hedged. And this week the approval was once again negated. Aid. Art Brooks said council's approval went agains district's approval went against district's building bylaw and moved rescinding of the former mention. In other words, no building permit to be issued. The community club wanted to re-construct the building on the old site because this would save them Ihc pouring of a new concrete foundation, but also because' a clause in the fire insurance policy provided for no monetary compensation at all in case the building was not put up again on the original site. Wilh council's latest move the club lost somewhere between SI5.000 and $25,000 said club spokesman Gordon Fallowfield. It had just begun to happen, candidate says FORT LANGLEY — IDEAL school board candidate Lottc Ellas has come out in support of community schools. Speaking (o a small group of local residents at a coffee party last Sunday, Elias said, "It was a short-sighted decision by the Langley school board lo cut off funds to ihe Fori Langley community school last June." Elias said (he community school operated for three years here. "The sense of community was just beginning to happen", she said, "when the project ended." The community school council, made up of students, parents and members of the community at large, determined how the school was used. Elias said. This is important, she said, "because local people arc able to use the school the way they want, rather than have the school board dictate policy." "People pay for the school system", she said. "Why can't they have some say in how they're run?" Elias said the community school philosophy of local control results in a "much better use of resources and resource personnel." Community schools are used more, because people arc able to take courses and participate in activities which they have had a say in developing. Elias said. This results in good use of the classrooms too, rather than jusi the gym. as is presently the case. Community schools also do a belter job of using the skills of people in the local area, she said. "There is a good reservoir of untapped resources that isn't presently being used." Elias said the Langley school board should develop "a coherent policy toward community schools." She would like to see them set up in each of the Identifiable community areas in Langley, such as Willoughby and Murrayville. "With the increasing urbanization of Langley this would help to preserve the sense of community and avoid some of the problems associated with suburbia." She said teenage participation in community schools , "is a positive outlet for adolescent energy."

Make sure your son knows that win or lose, you love him. Let him know that you appreciate his effort and that you won't be disappointed in him if he fails. Be the person in his life he can always look to for support. 2. Try to be completely honest with yourself about your son's athletic capability, his competitive attitude, his sportsmanship, his level of skill. 3. Be helpful, but don't coach your son on the way to the game or at the breakfast table. Think how touch it must be on him to be continually inundated with advise, pep talks and criticism. *Ki.i Soccer and hockey compete for youngsters time and energy. 4. Teach your son to enjoy the thrill of competition, to be "out there trying", to be constantly working to improve his skills, to take the physical bumps and come back for more. Don't tell him that winning doesn't count, because it does and he knows it. Instead, help him to develop a healthy competitive attitude, a "feel" for competing, for trying hard, for having a good time. 5. Try not to live your life through your son. You've lost as well as won. you've been frightened, you've backed off at times, you've been the villain. Don't expect any better of him. Sure, he is an extension of you, but don't assume he feels the same way you did, wants the same things, or has the same attitudes. Don'l push him in the direction that will give you the most satisfaction. 6. Don't compete with your son's coach. A coach may become a hero to him for a while, someone who can do no wrong, and you may find that hard to take. Or your son may become disenchan* led with the coach. Don't side with him against the coach. Talk to him about the importance of learning how to handle problems and how to react to criticism. Try to help him understand the necessity for discipline, rules and regulations.

So here goes. Remember the other morning when my team was playing and both of you were sitting watching? Well I hope you won't get mad at mc but you kind of embarrassed me.

But what really got me was what happened after the game. You shouldn't have jumped all over the coach for pulling me off the ice. He's a pretty good coach and a good guy, and he knew what he was doing. Besides, he's just a volunteer coming down at all hours of the day helping us kids just because he loves sports. And then neither of you spoke to me. the whole way home. 1 guess you were pretty sore at mc for not getting a goal. I tried awfully hard, but 1 guess I'm just a crummy hockey player. But 1 love the game. It's a lot of fun being with the other kids and learning to compete. It's a good sport. But how can I learn if you don't show me a good example? And anyhow, 1 thought I was playing hockey for fun, to have a good time and to learn good sportsmanship. I didn't know you were going to get upset because 1 couldn't become a star.

If you arc overly protective, you will perpetuate the problems, 8. Get to know your son's coach. Make sure that you approve of his attitude and ethics. A coach can be very influential, and you should know what his values arc so that you can decide whether or not you want them passed on to your son. 9. Remember that children tend to exaggerate, when they are praised and when they arc criticized. Temper your reactions to the stories your son brings homd from the rink. Don't criticize him for exaggerating, but don't over-react to the stories he tells you. 10. Teach your son the meaning of courage. Some of us can climb mountains but are frightened to get into a fight. Some of us can fight without fear but turn to jelly at the sight of a bee. Everyone is frightened of something. Courage isn't the absence of fear. Courage is learning to perform in spite of fear. Courage isn't getting rid of fear, it's overcoming it. seconds remaining until D.

Both goal tenders were equal to the task, however, with David McDonald in the Aldergrove net playing perhaps his best game this season fori the shutout. Midfielders, Alan Fontaine and Roddy Black .seemed much more at home in the relatively new system that the Emeralds are trying, and newcomer Lome Sabo was outstanding on defense. Forwards John Mobcrg and Ron Patterson also turned in excellent performances. The line up stirted with Greg Meyer at center forward. It was a ping-pong battle with both sides getting their fair share of the action. Greg and left wing Gary Craft made some good individual attempts on goal but never really clicked as a partnership. The pitch was slow and passes frequently failed to connect. The ball bounced erratically off bumps in the goal mouth giving Goalie Scott Mclssere some awkward moments. Play resumed With Koppers back in their customery positions which was rewarded by a breakaway by Andy MacPherson who calmly slipped the ball past the goalie for 01. The Colts retaliated immediately and jubilently equalized. From then on the Koppers had the upper edge. Craft fed the centres with some promising passes but the Colts defence were quick to intercept and kick the ball out of targit. The Koppers backs were equally determined. Danny Gelding once again predominant, ably assisted by the tireless Russell Thompson, and dependable David Howett.

Kohlers first goal scored, this period by Dwaine Carruthers unassisted. Grove goalie Tommy Giacomazzi played well, coming up wilh numerous saves in the third period to keep the score 5-2 Cleaners.

Saturday, at Parkside School, Aldergrove Hearts hosted Surrey United Sparks. This was a game the Hearts wanted to win badly to make up for the first time these two teams met which ended \fy a 2-2 tie. The Aldergrove boys went to it right from the opening whistle and just did not let the Surrey Team settle. Aldergrove's defence kept pushing the ball upficld where the forwards were picking up the ball every time and simply outplaying the opposition, lt did not take long for goal- hungry Clark to put the Hearts in front with a high shot which easily beat the keeper. Within' a very short time it was Billy Clark again putting the ball wide of the keeper for his second goal. Just before half-time, little Scott Rowlands got the ball in a goal mouth Aldergrove Figure skating Hallowe'en party The Aldergrove Figure Skating Club is pleased to announce that their First Annual Halowc'en Party will lake place at the Aldergrove Arena on Thursday.

COMMENT ByREV.K.NEILLFOSTjWy The money's monetary Recently wc did an inventory of Horizon House book stock. It appears to be complete. But it isn't. lt deals with just one commodity: money. And with Christian book sales (and so many other things) money's only part of the picture. The greater, more important part is immeasurable. For example, take truth. How do you measure truth? Pilate couldn't even define it. Countless contemporaries also wonder what il is. Christian books point to Christ, who is the Truth. How do you put a price on that? Or hope. Hope, often taken for granted, is often undcrpriced. But when problems prevail, its stock goes up. When the bottom falls out, hope is priceless. A single book can defeat despair. How do vou assess the value of thousands of copies? Or faith. Faith, surely is not so much taught as caught. An author can transmit faith through a book. If his faith infects his readers, who can tell what will happen? Perhaps a divine epidemic! But what do you say in the inventory? Or love. Love — by God's assessment — is even greater than faith or hope. Without love, the Bible says, we are nothing. Suppose a book leads just one person to love as God loves? Suppose it leads several thousand? The thought is exciting. And impossible to price! So why take an inventory? Well, it does have a certain temporal value. But in the final assessment, in any walk of life, the monetary is momentary. The ministry multiplies and pays compound interest. Jehovah's witnesses banned in Argentina Freedom of worship has been denied the Christian society of Jehovah's Witnesses and their 604 congregations throughout Argentina, by decree number 1867 signed by Jorge Rafael Vidcla, president of Argentina, under date of August 31, 1976. According to Bruce Sumner, presiding overseer of the Aldergrove congregation, the branch offices of the society and all meeting places have been closed. Sumner said a communication received from world headquarters of'Jehovah's Witnesses in Brooklyn, New York, was considered by the Aldergrove congregation. "We were shocked and surprised at this move by the Argentine government," Bruce said. Bruce reported. "In ordering "the activity of the religious association... prohibited in the whole territory of the nation,' the decree, issued by President Vidcla stated that "freedom of worship consecrated by articles 14 and 20 of the national constitution of course finds itself limited in the sense that the religious ideas should not imply the violation of laws or an attempt against public order, national security, morale or good customs.' "According to a bill passed by the Argentine congress in 1949," Bruce explained, "all religious groups except the Catholic church were required lo register with the department of cults of the ministry of foreign relations. Registry of Jehovah's Witnesses was denied and in August 1950 our work was officially proscribed. "For five years following this proscription, close surveillance of Jehovah's Witnesses was maintained but. wilh the fall of the Peron government in 1955, pressure began to case somewhat and the following year a national public assembly was held attended by over 5.000 persons, "In 1957. however, another national assembly was interrupted by the police who invoked the public meeting edict of the chief of police. This abridgement of the freedom of worship and of meeting guaranteed by the constitution was challenged by Jehovah's Witnesses, and on March 14.1958, the sentence of the chief of police was revoked and eight articles of the public meeting edict were declared illegal and unconstitutional." Following another change in government in 1958, Sumner said, a number of appeals were made to various government officials and agencies to have the ban against the Christian activity of Jehovah's Witnesses lifted, but despite favorable responses from several officials, the government responded negatively in 1959. Despite the de jure proscription of the work, however, de facto acceptance continued, two public assemblies being held at that same year. In the years that followed, a.new building housing branch offices and a printing plant of the society of^Jchovah's Witnesses was built and later enlarged, and many new meeting places or Kingdom halls were constructed. During the last twenty-five years, the preaching work of Jehovah's Witnesses was well received by people all over Argentina, the active number of witnesses growing from 1.416 in 1950 to 31.140 in 1975. "With this background of favorable activity and the response our work has received among the people of Argentina," Bruce said concerning President Vidcla's decree of August 31, 1976, "we find it difficult to understand why this action should be taken after twenty-six years, when obviously no attempt has been made by these Christians 'against public order, national security, morale or good customs,' as stated by President Videla in his decree. Obviously the position of Jehovah's Witnesses is misunderstood. It is our hope that liberty will soon be restored to Jehovah's Witnesses in Argentina."

It was called The Cold War, but it was a hot-blooded, irrational vendetta, which found its outlet in the U.S. House of Representatives' Un-American Activities Committee. When the air hail cleared the carnage was considerable. One man had committed suicide, careers were in ruins and there were Hollywood stars, witnesses for the committee, who had to live with the part they played in the destruction of their fellow artistes.

October 31. While "Life goes to the Movies" looks al the film capital, its stars and ils directors with a benevolent eye, and shows clips from some of the greatest and most entertaining films ever made, it also goes behind the scenes into the private lives or the stars. There is, for instance, a very touching segment on Marilyn Monroe, showing how this tormented soul finally succumbed to the very star-system which had moulded her. The Hollywood Ten episode in ,"Life goes to the Movies" is part of Hollywood history. The film focusscs on the Un-American Activities Committee which claimed to have found subversive influences in the movie capital. They found 10 writers and directors, Communist party members, and they were the scapegoats. Film stars, including A- dolphc Mcnjou and Robert Taylor, gave evidence against them. The Ten were jailed for confempt and the film industry, in panic, black-listed hundreds of innocent people. "Life goes to the Movies," sponsored by MacMillan Bloedet. ends ils dramatic insight into this sorry period with a quote from Dalton Trumbn, a brilliant screenwriter who was hounded out of Hollywood — "It will do no good to search for villains or heroes, because there were none. There were onlv victims."

Strings ond teste Jones Benefit performance Langley abounds in creativity. As the community itself grows, so docs the number of people enjoying the artistic pursuits — from handicrafts through visual arts to music and drama. The facilities to house these projects are scattered and for the most part inadequate, especially in the case of the performing arts. The Brookswood Hall, home of the Langley Players drama group, is small, stuffy, and a fire hazard. The Langley Arts Centre, where concerts are generally held, will comfortably scat only 75 people. Other facilities that have been considered arc Douglas Hall, the Civic Centre, and various school gymnasiums, but the poor ac- coustics and lack of sloped scaling make them impracticable. Trinity Chapel, although it lacks sloped seating, has good accous- tics and room for 200, but its availability is uncertain, priority being given to the College's own requirements. Many people in Langley believe wc need a community theatre; one with a seating capacity of 240 to 250, good sound, sloped seating, and a stage suitable for both musical concerts and drama. One individual who thinks so is Leslie Jones, performing musician and piano teacher at the Langley Community . Music School. He believes, in fact, that a community needs a theatre in the same way it needs, say, a library. To help the Langley Arts Council in its theatre fund drive, Mr. Jones has suggested a benefit concert featuring the Purccll String Quartet, Quartct-in-Resi- dencc at Simon Fraser University in Burnaby. As his personal contribution, Mr. Jones has offered to donate his own time and talent that evening tp perform with the quartet. Arrangements have now been completed for the November 10 benefit concert nt Trinity Hall, Trinity Western College, Fort Langley, beginning at 8:00 p.m. The entire proceeds of the performance will be added to the theatre fund. The quartet will play such compositions as Hay- dyn's Quartet in G Major Op. 77 #1. and Borodin's Quartet #2. Mr. Jones will join the group for a Schumann Quintet. Leslie Jones has been teaching at the Langley Community Music School since 1972. Born in Liverpool, England, he came to Canada at the age of 12 and settled in Port Credit, Ontario. Having been fortunate enough to 11 ud an exceptional piano teacher, Jones completed his ARCT certificate in Toronto. In 1962, a scholarship and an opportunity to study with Jaqucs Abram took him to the University of South Florida where he received *his B.A. and Master of Music degrees. In 1967, he commenced teaching at the University of Tampa where he ultimately headed the piano department. Mt*. Jones doesn't know exactly what brought him to the Fraser Valley, but in 1972 he and his wife Caroline, a flutist whom he met in Florida, were settling into a Surrey apartment. For awhile Mr. Jones taught at both the Vancouver and Langley Community Music Schools, but eventually he By CLAUDIA HERBERT moved his family and his teaching talents to a permanent home in Langley. All of the teaching staff at L.C.M.S. are self-employed musicians, and Mr. Jones is no exception. Besides teaching, he also free-lances as a performing musician and has given recitals at Trinity College, the Vancouver Community Music School, the Vancouver East Cultural Centre, and the Vancouver Art Gallery. -He has also played with the Vancouver Symphony. Recently he performed on the radio program, CBC Monday Night. A portion of a modern piece he played that evening has become the theme music for the series. The Purccll String Quartet, now in its fifth year as Quartet-in- Rcsidcnce at Simon Fraser University, has become very familiar in musical circles. Quartet members are Norman Nelson, violin, Ian Hampton, cello, Phiolippe Ettcr, viola, and Robert Growcott. second violin. Mr. Growcott is new to the quartet this fall. replacing original second violinist Frederick Nelson. Despite their classical name, the Purccll String Quartet also interprets contemporary t music including a substantial number of compositions by Canadians such as R. Murray Schafcr and Harry Frccdman. The group has performed in Britain, the U.S., and numerous centres across Canada, and has recorded for the C.B.C. and the B.B.C. In British Columbia, during the 1975-76 season, the quartet performed in 49 concerts in 20 communities. They have consistently earned press acclaim in national and international performances. The Purccll String Quartet and Leslie Jones are ingredients for a successful recipe, both in terms of audience enjoyment and fund raising. And. what better way to demonstrate a potential use for a community theatre in Langley? Seating for the performance is limited, so tickets should be purchased early at The Aldergrove Star in Aldergrove, or Waska's Clothing in Fort Lang- Icy. Should any tickets remain, they will be available at the door.

ICBC does not certify body shops The Insurance Corporation of B.C. is concerned that the public may be receiving the wrong impression about its relationship with auto repair shops in the province. Many of these repair facilities are using such words as "certified", "authorized," or "approved" on their signs and In their advertising. The corporation would like to emphasize that it has not to this date, given such a designation to any company in the business of repairing vehicles. Motorists who have made an accident claim on their insurance are free to take their vehicle to any repair shop they choose. ICBC undertakes to pay reasonable costs for the necessary repairs for its insureds, but has not certified any repair shops. The motoring public should be aware that no repair shop has any certification with ICBC.

Essential services such as sewer, water, sidewalks and recreational needs, which for years received very little attention, are now priority matters which your Council deals with each week. Council has decided that all future developments In Langley District shall be serviced by sewer and water to ensure that a minimum amount of land accommodates the maximum amount of people. We intend to protect the environment of our people to the best of our ability. Industry Is being encouraged to settle in the Northwest part of the District, under strict control of Council through Land Use Contracts. A healthy industrial tax base will help alleviate the heavy tax load on the local homeowner. The new addition to the Municipal Hall is almost complete. The additional space will allow our staff to serve you even more efficiently than before. I must say that I am more than pleased with the performance of all our employees on the Municipal payroll. Our thanks to all the citizens of Langley serving on the various commissions and committees on a volunteer basis, citizens whom you seldom see or hear about, but do a tremendous job on your behalf. We, on Council, welcome all our residents to visit while Council is In session to see and hear for yourselves the decisions Council makes and how they will affect you and your children in the future. As your Mayor for the past year, I wish to thank everyone for their help and co-operalion. Respectfully submitted, George Driediger MAYOR Administration During the year there has been essentially little change in staff numbers. An additional Professional Engineer has been added to staff to function as Municipal Operational Engineer. The addition to the Municipal Hall Is progressing satisfactorily and when finished will relieve the congestion in the present Hall and make for more efficient production from the staff. Increased general work Involved with administration, planning and development in the District and with the planning, engineering and orderly development of the projected new community In the Northwest of the District makes the Hall addition timely. On behalf of the Electorate and Council, I wish to express appreciation to the Municipal staff members for the diligent and efficient conduct of the everyday Municipal business activities. Respectfully submitted, E. L. Nundal, Chairman Health and Welfare In view of the fad that the administration of Welfare is the sole responsibility of the Provincial Government, this part of the title means nothing. The Health section of this committee does not demand very much of the Chairman's time or energy either. I have attended the bi-monthly meetings of the Central Fraser Valley Union Board of Health and reported the proceedings to Council. I have acted as liaison between Council and the Officers of the Health Unit whenever required, and have from time to time investigated complaints referred to me with appropriate reports to Council. Respectfully submitted, A. T. Brooks Chairman Parks and Recreation 1976 has been a successful year for Parks and Recreation. SUCCESSES: 1) Completion of the Langley Parks and Recreation Comprehensive Plan — a blueprint for development as Langley grows. This now needs to be Implemented to maximize co-operation, co-ordination and efficiency. 2) Passing of a much needed "Parks Regulatory By-Law" to assure public safety and promote responsibility in our parks. 3) A great increase In co-operation and co-ordination, with Langley City and School District #35. Examples are: a) Joint development of Langley Senior Secondary Tennis Courts and Brookswood Junior Secondary Lighted field; b) Aqulsltlon of a park adjacent to a new school site in South Aldergrove; c) Joint development of sports fields at several school sites; d) Joint usage of Ponder Park Nature reserve for students and the public. This Is just a start towards greater benefits for the citizens of Langley. 4) Up-grading of all of the Municipal ball fields and soccer pitches during the summer by a special parks development crew will allow for more days of use of these sports fields by Langley athletes. 5) Completion ol major drainage program at Milner Park, and ma|or development in Ponder Park through an L.l.P. Grant. 6) Commencement of a master site plan for needed development In Aldergrove Park, Fort Langley Park, Williams Park and Otter Park. 7) Parks and Recreation services were amalgamated In the Municipality to mandate closer co-operation, joint planning and programming and efficiency. This is working very well. 8) Recreational Programming has grown rapidly this year. This summer saw over 4800 youths participate In outdoor activities and over 28,000 paid admissions to the pools. AREAS OF CONCERN: 1) Parks and Recreation are still not recognized as a vital service of the Municipality and as a great benefit to making Langley a better place in which to live. Our Parks and Recreation staff is one of the lowest per capita In B.C. and we are faced with more demands than we can supply. Staff must be Increased to keep pace with the growth In Langley. 2) Closer co-operation (and possible amalgamation) In several areas of Parks and Recreation services between the Municipality, City and School District Is necessary to provide services efficiently. 3) The recommendations contained In the Parks and Recreation Comprehensive Plan must be carefully studied by Councils and then Implemented to assure that Langley can be said to be a fine community to live In. September 30, 1976 Dan Kitsul Alderman Public Works The 1976 Public Works Budg st is as follows: MAINTENANCE: Gravel Roads $ 95,000.00 Paved Roads 195,000.00 Road Sides 440,000.00 Signs 78,000.00 Bridges and Large Culverts 10,000.00 General Drainage 58,000.00 Frost, Snow and Storm Drainage 70,000.00 Miscellaneous 25,000.00 Total Maintenance $971,000.00 CAPITAL WORKS: New Construction $ 68,250.00 Reconstruction and Paving 641,000.00 Flush Coating 26,750.00 Bridges and Large Culverts 20,000.00 Drainage 15,000.00 Sidewalks 80,000.00 New Equipment 100,000.00 Other 171,149.00 Total Construction $1,122,149.00 Total Public Works Budget $2,093,149.00 MAJOR PROJECTS FOR 1976: Reconstruct & Pave BUDGETS FOR PREVIOUS YEARS: 1971 1972 1973 1974 1975 $577,300 $794,500 $1,084,750 $1,405,000 $1,763,050 COMPLETED OR PLANNED 200th Street, 20th Avenue to 24th Avenue — Completed at a cost of $37,776 Reconstruct & Pave 224th Street, 16th Avenue to 20th Avenue — Completed at a cost of $32,488 Reconstruct & Pave 264th Street, 56th Avenue to 62nd Avenue — Completed at a cost of $79,785 Reconstruct & Pave 248th Street, 34th Avenue to Fraser Highway — Completed at a cost of $57,771 Reconstruct &.

We do expect to complete the retaining wall this year and leave tne widening and reconstruction until next year. SIDEWALKS: 48th Avenue had a blacktopped sidewalk installed with the road reconstruction from Old Yale Road to Fraser Highway. 96th Avenue gravel walk from 216th to 208th Street has had a blacktop surface installed. Glover Road from 64th Avenue north through Milner to Smith Crescent was completed this year with blacktop. Council have now adopted a policy where sidewalks will be completed to blacktop standard. DRAINAGE: Two projects on our this year's program being done under Ditches and Watercourses are the Blggar Prairie drainage system, and 208th to 206th Street to relieve a flooding problem just north of 24th Avenue. Both these projects are being done under contract. Our Municipal ditching crew have been operating since February on a quarterly system — one week In each corner of the District so that all areas get some benefit from the ditching maintenance budget. The Parks crew are now operating separately from Public Works and In conjunction with the Recreation Director. Respectfully submitted, W. C. Blair Chairman Utilities and Enterprise As Chairman of Utilities and Enterprises I made a recommendation to Council that we compile and analyse all existing information on groundwaters available below this Municipality. There Is a tremendous amount ol information now available. Then, as areas of the Municipality indicate an approaching need for additional water, exploratory wells could be drilled in Indicated aquifers as funds become available. When the time arrives that additional water must be delivered to an area, a production well or wells could be developed in a proven acqulfer. As we go into more production It would be to satisfy additional users. These additional, In sharing costs, would keep our production costs at a minimum. In supplying our own services we continue to control and plan our own Municipality. Outside suppliers inevitably end up planning the area they supply services for. We could easily lose our rural character If those who do not even live here plan our development. Because of just such planning as Is recommended, and the expertise of our consultants, International Groundwaters Consultants Ltd., and well drillers, Pacific Water Wells (1969) Ltd., we have brought In one shallow and one deep well in the Salmon River Flats. This guaranteed 3.6 million gallons per day supply, with a safety factor of 158%, gives us the time for the program I recommend. The plan is concurred within the last paragraph of the report of W. L. Brown, P. Eng., of our water consultants. The report also states we will produce our own water and It "should not exceed 5 cents per thousand gallons" as compared to 31.675 cents per thousand gallons from G.V.R.D. A one million gallon reservoir Is under contstruction to use the 3.5 million gallons of water available from our new wells. The contract for a water system to the reservoir and Industrial area has been awarded and the impost and user fees from the Industrial area will help to pay the cost ol residential water service. The sewer plant on the Fraser River is under construction. This is a modular design plant and can be enlarged as need demands. Engineering for Increased water supplies for the Aldergrove area has been approved by Council and should meet both fire protection and consumer needs. While this has been a sometimes frustrating year as Chairman of Utilities and Enterprises, because of excellent staff such aa our Co-ordinator and the people in our Planning Department, a lot has been accomplished. Respectfully submitted, J. R. Lindsay Chairman Planning Planning for the future of our Municipality is a complex and challenging job. We are fortunate Indeed that this planning is in the hands of top level staff and the results show this. Outside influences affect what is being done as the financial situation in this province has affected the development of our industrial areas. However, conditions appear to have stabilized and we expect renewed activity In these industrial areas. Considering the time we've been developing the areas concerned, we are In good shape and an article on Industrial real estate in one publication gives Langley Municipality top rating. We expect to have 500-600 acres of serviced industrial land on the market in March 1977. Several Industries are now under construction and Inquiries are beifig received each week regarding industrial land. Dominion Construction Co. Ltd. has completed several necessary studies for their large development and are continuing to progress. Walnut Grove (Area E) is being planned as a very desirable residential area, particularly for employees of industry In the industrial parks. Mr. K. Major, Planning Officer for Langley Municipality, submitted his recommendations for development on the Fraser Highway. These were approved by Council and we hope for a quick approval by the Minister of Highways in Victoria. Aldergrove continues to develop according to the "Aldergrove Plan" as approved by the people In that area. Because of an increased demand for mobile homes, two parks were approved In areas deemed most appropriate for this type of development. This has been a rewarding year as Chairman of Planning and I look forward, with the staff of our Planning Department and our Co-ordinator, to seeing the results of our efforts. Respectfully submitted, J. R. Lindsay Chairman Protection Committee In presenting this report I would, at the outset, express my admiration and thanks for the dedicated service of all members of the Langley Department of the R.C.M.P. working under the direction of Inspector Wilson, and to all the volunteer fire fighters In the six zones serving the Municipality and the City. These two departments form the backbone of "protection" to our residents. Through their diligence, courtesy and co-operation they serve us well. Langley Municipality has experienced residential, commercial and Industrial growth, and with this growth we can expect, and have received, our fair share of Increase In the crime rate. Your Council, to combat this crime rate, has approved an Increase to the staffing of the local Police Detachment, and has authorized the purchase of recommended equipment. The Detachment keeps comprehensive records of crime incidence thereby enabling them to direct their efforts towards positive preventive measures and timely action. The Langley Detachment must be congratulated on their efforts to work with and Involve the public in many programmes aimed at public safety and crime prevention. These include — Operation Identification to curb breaking and entering and theft; The Block Parents Programme to prevent child molesting and sexually related offences; Seminars for businessmen to offer presentation on rape prevention; "The Point Your Way to Safety" programme starting soon is aimed at Pedestrian Safety while crossing streets. Through the co-operation of CJJC, weekly broadcasts are aired on public assistance In crime prevention. Your Council urges all residents to support these programmes. More detailed information on any of these programmes can be obtained by telephoning or visiting the local R.C.M.P. Detachment. Credit must be given to the Auxiliary Police Force who, with direction from the R.C.M.P. and with the use of Municipal Vehicles, have reduced the Incidence of vandalism in and around municipal parks and gravel pits by their vigilant patrols. While on the subiect of law enforcement we must recognize the work of the Municipality's Law Enforcement Officer. Co-operating with the R.C.M.P. and the other Municipal Departments, this Officer has successfully and satisfactorily concluded all the by-law Infractions tjrought to his attention. FIRE DEPARTMENT: Langley Municipality and the City have a volunteer Fire Department that just doesn't take second place to any other. The Department Is divided Into six zones, each responsible for a defined area, yet the co-operation and assistance between zones Is admirable. The Fire Council requested a survey of the area by the British Columbia Fire Marshall's Office. This report has now been received and is under review between the Fire Council and the Municipal and City Councils. The outcome most certainly will recommend some changes directed at improved protection In a developing Municipality. Meetings have been held by your Council with the members of the Fire Zones, the City Council, School District and I.C.B.C. to obtain more on site water supplies for fighting school fires and progress has been excellent. Wells are now under construction at many rural schools. Our Fire Inspection Officers are vigilant In their inspections of residential, commercial and industrial Installations. This year the Industrial area In Northwest Langley was energized on a hydrant system. In testimony to the success of the Inspections, training, Improved equipment and sustained standard of our Fire Department, we are proud to report a decrease in fire losses and fewer fire calls this year compared to the corresponding period last year. DOG CONTROL: The Dog Control contract with the S.P.C.A. concluded ' In June of this year and the Municipality elected not to renew this contract. Instead a one year trial contract for this service was negotiated with Mr. T. McMath. McMath, since commencing Dog Control services In the Municipality, has performed satisfactorily. Respectfully submitted, J. Q. Lee Chairman Finance The Finance Committee was again faced with the problem of a balanced annual budget that would allow an acceptable level of services and programs and maintain a tolerable mill rate. The problem has been compounded by a slow growth In the 1976 assessment roll — (2.35% increase). As yet the Provincial Government has not developed a standard equalization formula for assessment purposes and taxes are based on a "frozen assessment roll". At this time your Finance Committee would point out that property assessments for taxation purposes are made by the B.C. Assessment Authority and not by the Municipal Staff. The Municipal Government acts as a collection vehicle for other Boards and Authorities such as the School Board and the Central Fraser Valley Regional District. The result of this arrangement Is that Council has discretionary spending power over 59% of the tax dollar collected, while 41 % of the tax dollar is transmitted to the aforementioned branches of government not under the discipline of your Council.

Conflict of interest a concern MATSQUI — A copy of a letter from the Planning Institute of B.C. to the Minister of Municipal Affairs was read in council Monday morning. The institute is concerned with Matsqui's Land Use Contract By-law No. 998 (1971), in which a section authorized developers to retain a consulter who was in the employ of the municipality, which could put consulters in a conflict of interest position. Mayor Harry Dejong commented that the section of the by-law in contention was currently under review by staff to prohibit potential conflict of interest. Some kind of solution hoped for LUMBER CITY Sales Ltd MURRAYVILLE — The problem was sent to district's planning committee for "some kind of solution." The problem, that of truckers in Langley district having no place to park their fleets overnight, has been going on now for five or six years. Aid. Bill Blair told council Monday afternoon.

Mayor George Driediger said Forsythc had put in a bid on the commercial lot in Murrayville but apparently learned that he could not use the land for his intended purpose of parking trucks. "lt is one of those grey area," said Driediger. "it's maybe yes. maybe no." He said the individual drivers now took their trucks home with them to their own residence at night. Clerk Derek Doubleday said a number of complaints had also come in to municipal hall from neighbors objecting to this practise, lt was in particular the starting up of the trucks at five o'clock in the morning that upset the citizens, he said. Blair said there just isn't any place where truckers' can even buy land on which to park their rigs. "And wc better do something about it." he said. "God knows we need the trucks."

So common is the affliction, lhal many have accepted dental disease as inevitable — yet are unaware that a person's overall health can be affected if Ihe denial condition is not remedied. This is a tragedy of the uninformed. Through better education and a little effort, many denial problems' can be prevented, remedied or repaired through the skills of dentistry. Ii is also important to remember that poor overall health can cause dental problems. Especially closely linked arc poor dental health and digestion problems.

It appears the expectation of lower hog prices ahead may have encouraged some U.S. producers to market hogs ahead of normal as average weights declined about carcass during August. As U.S. prices slid from over S50 livewcight in early June to the current level of $36 live at mid-west markets or about $48 dressed equivalent, Canadian markets have been under considerable downward pressure. The s present Toronto market of around $59 per cwt. (Index 100) places - Canada in a strong import position for pork cuts. At the present time U.S. fresh pork enters Canada duty-free as the V> cent per pound tariff was removed in May '76 budget. (Nofc: Since this article was written in September, the Calgary price has dropped to $45 dressed.) Now's the Time to Think Warbles Grub Free Cattle arc Attractive Merchandise — just what docs that mean? Simply it means a more saleable product and one For a beautiful spring garden plant now!

Canada has an enviable record in the elimination or suppression to low levels of many livestock 5 pounds per diseases and pests. With a late July and concerted treatment effort by cattlemen! and monitoring of grub incidence in the spring, followed by treatment where necessary, warbles can be virtually eliminated. It seems reasonable to believe this objective should be pursued. Progress has been made — a continuing effort is required. Food Takes Smaller Share of Disposable Income Canadians spend less of their disposable income on food now than 10 or 20 years ago. For example, in 1975 Canadians spent 18.3 percent of disposable income on food compared to 19.7 percent ten years earlier and 22.4 percent in 1955. Personal disposal incomes have increased from SI ,231 per person in 1955 to $4,734 in 1975. In just five years. 1971-75, per capita disposable incomes have jumped 70 percent. In comparison, the current index of beef prices stands at 120.4 (1971 = 100) down 17 percent from a year ago. At the same time pork prices are down from 1975 levels. Putting it all together, consumers arc the real winners at the meat counter as an hour's earning continues to buy an increasing amount of meat products.

It should be noted that this school is operating a broad program of studies with a narrower base of student population this year. Several courses have been out this year because of low demand. A program has been created to enable the students to attain educational equality with other junior secondary schools having larger populations. Night Security. A good addition, especially since this building is of frame construction. Coverage should extend to weekday nights until electronic system is operational. Concession service.

U.K. educational tour. This is an enriched and enlarged program schedule for the spring break plus four prescribed school days. in order to proceed, the board's approval for the following is requested: 1) Endorsement of the educational tour which will take place from March 27 to April 10. 1977. 21 As the tour extends beyond the spring break it is necessary for the board to grant Montemur- ro leave from his regular duties at H.

McLean, presented the board with an extensive report on the operation of this year's program, inclusive of recommen- FLOWERS 534-3633 1 Langley Flower Shop| dations for the future. The main points of the discussion centered on the following items. 1) The question whether a recreation program should be excluded from the school district summer program, as these program offerings should be developed through the recreation commission and/or arts council. 2) The question of whether students from outside the school district boundaries should be charged for attendance at summer school. The recommendation for next'year's program indicated that thought had been given to charging students outside the district. 3) Hiring criteria whether teachers within the Langley district were given first choice at openings to teach summer school. The principal indicated that Langley teachers were given preference due to their knowledge of the district. It was moved by Dr. Anderson, seconded by Mr. Armstrong, that summer school report be received but thai (hey not take any action at this time. Motion was carried. Amendment to budget proposal presented to the board in June 197b for the year 1977. It has become apparent that the outdoor education equipment needs lo be stored and cared for in a central location within the district. Two part-time people are required: 1) A storekeeper to keep an > inventory: to check equipment in and out: lo repair equipment e.g. tears in raingcar, tents, etc.; lo report losses to the committee; to be responsible for ihc safe custody of the equipment. 2) A part-time secretary to be responsible for telephone bookings of equipment; to list availability of equipment; to perform clerical duties in conjunction with the storckeeping. Estimated costs for hiring: Storekeeper: four hours per week at $15.00 per hour for 40 weeks — 52,400. Secretary: 20 hours per week at 55.00 per hour for 40 weeks — 54.000. Some preliminary discussion has taken place with the principal of D. W. Poppy junior secondary school regarding storage facilities — it might be possible to use this school — it meets the requirements for a central location. Additionally there is a child care worker, Dobson, presently working at the school, who has the expertise and enthusiasm to efficiently perform storckeeping duties. This request had been submit* ted September 30. 1976 by J. D. Gabbott, P. Beckett, J. Fuller and they would be most grateful if consideration can be given for additional funding. Dr. J. R.

Baker's pies, available in wide variety, are a great convenience food; always fresh and flavourful; and good food value. Serve them cold if you wish but more often they taste even better when warmed in the oven. With a topping you add yourself they provide that extra touch of tender loving care.

Some of these arc hardy enough to withstand the cold of most winters, but must be in a well drained spot or otherwise they will drown. Outdoor grown spray mums should be dug up in early November and placed in a cool greenhouse for protection. Some of the Plyanthus bloom Ihis time of the year, but they produce the majority of their blooms in April on into May. The tall plumes of the Pampas Grass can be classified as a bloom, being great favorites this time of the year. They should be in a well drained location. They withstand a lot of cold weather, but it is better to pile some sawdust on leaves around them, just in case we have an extra severe winter. "This is best done around mid-November. Inside, we have the Lobster Claw Cactus, which looks like a Christmas Cactus, except for the leaves which have points Instead of the rounded end of the leaf. This cactus will bloom from mid-October to the end of November, and again in Aprril or May. The flowers come In pure white, white and orange, white and purple, there are one to three blooms on the end of the leaf. It has a semi-weeping habit of growth, making an excellent plant to add to ones collection. Langley stops ANTIQUES FOR EVERYONE Fascinating history of Canadian antiques By CHRIS POTTER To begin studying antique Canadian furniture and artifacts is to open a door to a surprisingly fascinating history. * Surprising perhaps only to people like me, who found Canadian history a biitcr-eoatcd pill of dry politics and dryer dates we were forced to swallow during school years, or latterly, because our television' seis only received CBC. But through our own antiques, one can glimpse the human history. A social documentary of the immigrant people who carved their furniiure from the trees surrounding their cabins, and of those in grander circumstances who commissioned superior cabinet makers to utilize the indigenous woods in making furnishings suitable for important residences. What identifies a piece of furniture as being particularly Canadian? Certainly not a definite style, for Canadian furniture can be anything from the most primitive of designs made by homesteaders for their basic needs, to magnificent items after the styles of the Louis XV era. the splendid furniture made in Canada during the French regime is now extrememly rare, and found in museums or in the homes of descendents from the original owners. And these people are highly unlikely to want to part with such treasurers. The earliest influence came from the mother country and French styles were in strong evidence from the uutcrc Louis XIII (mid 17th- century) to the elaborate rococo styles of the late 18th-century (Louis XV). When Ontario came under F.nglish administration in 17(0. cabinetmaking in Canada began a transitional phase which lasted until after the 1812 war. Even then, the co-mingling of styles did not result in a strictly Canadian image, and furniture makers tended to adapt the com temporary English and French styles. The modified design is one of the keys to identifying Canadian;!. Another clue is the type of wood used, for one thing (he local cabinetmakers did recognize was this country's superabundance of woods, which were later admired for their beauty by other countries as well. >W Wc arc brightening the bookmobile with posters.

Canadian furniture was made from ash, busswood (also called tulip wood) birch, black walnut, butternut, cherry, chestnut (now jusi about wiped out through blight), curly maple, elm, hickory, oak, pine and sometimes, pear. Oak and walnut were also used extensively in European pieces of course, but the intermingled designs of the two cultures usually identified the local piece, as they do in the imported mahogany pieces made in Canada during the mid-1800's. The "primitive" pieces were usually made from pine, and the most simple and basic of these was often constructed in a single evening by a party of pioneer neighbours. Most early, inexpensive pieces were made to be painted, and so woods were combined sometimes indiscriminately. Until recently, the rage among collectors was to strip the paint and enjoy the natural wood (or woods, in many cases). Now, buyers arc seeking pieces with the original paint finish, which can sometimes be in questionable condition. To be a true Canadian antique, the piece must have been hand crafted in Canada, be at least 100 years old, and not more than 10 percent of its material should have been replaced. (The latter two guides apply to any antique.) One advantage the collector of Cunadiana has over the collector of international antiques is the excitement of ihe search. For these pieces can still be found in someone's garage or basement, or at a swap meet. (Most auctioneers will know when they have a piece, and will tout it accordingly.) Look closely at pieces with turned legs, any evidence of carving, or other signs of hand craftmanship. Underneath those ten layers of paint, there might be a heart of oak, or maple, or birch...just waiting lo be exposed to an appreciative owner.

January 1st to December 31st. All current licences expiring on October 31st will now be extended to December 31st, 1976. "SIX (6) BIG ADVANTAGES OF HAVING A BUSINESS LICENCE" (1)The municipality receives many calls from various organizations such as: Better Business Bureau Credit Bureaus Canada Manpower R.C.M.P. to name a just a few, enquiring if certain businesses have current Business Licences. Without a current Business Licence you are not considered to be legally authorized to operate a business. (2) Wholesalers and Manufacturers will deal only with businesses that have a licence, and the majority will give a discount to a legitimate business on showing them your Business Licence. (3) We receive many calls direct from the public asking us if certain businesses are licenced. We do give this Information out to the public. (4) We also receive phone calls requesting names of reputable businesses In the municipality. (5) If you are operating a business under a company name and have Insurance, fire, theft, etc., and you need a claim on your Insurance, be sure you possess a current Business Licence, as without one your claim can be refused. I.E. There has been one Court case where the Judge ruled that the business In question was operating without a licence, and was therefore an illegal business. The Insurance Company was not required to make payment. (6) Your Business Licence Is also Tax Deductible. A.

"But what it is puzzles me no end, Sir." ahead of you in the service of Queen and country?" asked the admiral grandly. and in good repair, padre gloomily. The admiral turned 77iis is reprinted from the Kingston Whig-Standard. Mr. Doyle, in submitting his article to the Whig-Standard, says of the ■■TliisisNota Will"form, "...we were required to fill out the damn thing every six months and nobody seemed to know why." Able Seaman "Stripey" O'Swab apparently decided to do something about that and so met the form head-on in the captain's cabin. He was. continues Mr. Doyle, as witnessed by the three good conduct stripes, "...the best lower-deck sea lawyer in the RCN." For the edification of our readers, the "This is Not a Will" form was later replaced with a "Notification of Next of Kin" form which has. since March, 1974. been superceded by form CF742 — the "Personal Emergency Notification" form. It is otherwise known, as readers can plainly see. as the "This is Not a Legal Document"form. — Editor THE "THIS IS NOT A WILL" CASE KWCHUL tMIMMCY NOTWKATWN • ' ■"*• • mtoHmui siflfflr"' Omit— •""—iu-j-i r** «jTWirwia.,iKiw:in;"tiM3 k.i.

"Case dismissed!" echoed the jaunty. "On caps! About turn] Double marchl" Smiling victoriously, Canada's best sea-lawyer, Able Seaman 'Stripey' O'Swab clattered out of the ante-room and went about the queen's business, his faith in mankind and in the ultimate justice of the navy, once again restored. MORAL: If you must tangle yardarms with an admiral, always keep to weather of him until he expends his heavy ammunition on targets of lesser importance. Then close him at high speed and get under his guns. NUNDAL 'If if costs I'm agin...' 1 think his finest hour was the time he tangled bower cables with Admiral Horratio Brusque-Churl, VDs. VDg, CD. RCN. Flag Officer Pacific Coast, a hard-nosed gunnery jack with a pom-pom shell for a heart. The cherubic O'Swab, a taut hand with every hair a rope's yarn and every finger a marlin spike, would forever remain an AB because he was simply incapable of obeying a foolish, dangerous, or unlawful command without rocking the boat with great argument. The tinny blare of the bugle call. 'Admiral's Defaulters to Muster' bounced off the bulkheads and reverberated through the administration block in HMCS Nadcn in Esquimalt like a cosmic shuttlecock. The master-at-arms, better known as the jaunty, reported to the admiral, "Admiral's defaulter mustered, sir." "Very well. Bring him up, let's get on with it, shall we?" muttered Brusque-Churl testily. The ante-room was jammed with disinterested bodies as witnesses to justice in action. There were chaplains of three religious per- suasions, the unfortunate's divisional officer and the establishment's surgeon, dentist, paymaster, engineer and the ship's cat, none of whom knew why they were there. There was a chief writer who knew everything about the Queen's Regulations to advise the admiral who knew virtually nothing about them. "Able Seaman O'Swab!" bellowed the jaunty in a voice that could be heard clear to the dockyard. 'Stripey'. gold badges of good conduct glittering, doubled to the lectern. "Off caps," howled the jaunty, "Able Seaman Patrick, Scan O'Swab, Sir, did contravene your standing order in that he did fail to fill out a THIS IS NOT A WILL form, a repeated offence." "What do you have to say to all Ihis, O'Swab? How do you plead, guilty or not guilty?" queried the admiral with an air of studied world-weariness. "Not guilty, sir. 1 didn't do anything at all, sir." The admiral glanced sharply at his jaunty. "He says he didn't do anything, master-at-arms." "He didn't do anything, sir. That's just it, he failed to do something. He failed to fill out a THIS IS NOT A WILL form." "O'Swab," grumbled Horratio Brusque-Churl, "did you or did you not fail to fill out a THIS IS NOT A WILL form in accordance with my standing orders?" "Well, sir, I didn't fail because I didn't try. Had 1 failed to fill out the form I might have failed but 1 didn't try. sir." "You didn't try to fail, O'Swab?" asked the confused admiral. "No sir, I didn't try to try. Had I actually tried to try, it's possible that I might have failed, but I didn't even try to try, sir," O'Swab said with urgent sincerity- "Why?" foamed the admiral clutching his purpling cheeks. "Why didn't you even try to fill out a THIS IS NOT A WILL form, a straightforward simple document?" "I didn't know what it was, sir," replied O'Swab, disarming- ly- "It's not a will, that's what It's not, O'Swab," explained the admiral instructively, beads of seat forming on his brow. "i know what it's not, Sir, It certainly is not a will, bul It's not "Never mind what it is, it's what it is not that really matters. You mention that it is not lots of other things. What sort of things? This is your day in court, enumerate them." "Sir, the list is endless. It's not a will but it's not the Leaning Tower of Pisa, nor five fathoms of spun yarn, nor a hedge anchor. There are a trillion things a THIS ' IS NOT A WILL is not." "Chief Writerl" screamed the admiral, flecks of foam flying from his jowls like spindrift from a schooner's forefoot, "get me a THIS IS NOT A WILL form at the rush!" The chief scurried off returning with a yellow form. Horratio Brusque-Churl with a triumphant forefinger stabbed at the form. "There O'Swab, in big black letters an inch deep it reads, 'THIS IS NOT A WILL' and that is all that it is not. Don't you think Her Majesty the Queen, In her infinite wisdom, tirelessly checking these forms day and night in the Queen's Printer before she releases them to the fleet, would have listed such things? Are you going to stand there whining and snivelling and tell me that the Queen herself doesn't know what else it is not?" "But O'Swab, I have a surprise for you. I am going to tell you what it is. The chief writer knows what it is as well as what it is not. Chief Writer — tell this man what a THIS IS NOT A WILL form really is," commanded the admiral. "A THIS IS NOT A WILL form is a form laying down the names of the next of kin who should be informed In the event of death," the chief writer recited. "Now Chief Writer, you just tell Able Seaman O'Swab why wc want to inform his next of kin when he dies," boomed the admiral, confidence returning. "Wc inform his next of kin so they will know that he failed to fill out a properly witnessed will and only filled out a THIS IS NOT A WILL form and they, therefore," will not be getting his effects and valuables. They won't be getting his kitbag. hammock, and his dirty pictures from Alexandria." "Sirl" protested the unhappy O'Swab, "I haven't got any dirty pictures from Alexandria." "Of course you have, O'Swab, or why is it that we will find it necessary to withold them from your next of kin? By the way, Master-at-arms, who does get O'Swab's dirty pictures from Alexandria?" questioned the admiral. "The chaplains, Sir. They collect them. They all say that these pictures bring discredit on the dead body." "Whose dead body?" asked the admiral. "O'Swab's dead body, sir," replied the jaunty, sadly brushing aside a stray tear. "O'Swab's not deadl" screamed the admiral, clearly skirling the verge of apoplexy. "We're not accusing him of being dead, are wc?" "Divisional officer, give me a report on Able Seaman O'Swab. What's his potential? What leadership qualities does he enjoy? Clarify his virtues," ordered Brusque-Churl, churlishly. "Able Seaman O'Swab keeps his kit clean and in good repair," said the divisional officer mechanically, as though awakened from, a deep thought troubled sleep. "You sec O'Swab? You have a fine future. Maybe you are officer material. Glowing tributes like that arc hard to come by. Do you think I want to ruin the brilliant, glorious, scintillating career I sec "No sir," O'Swab responded, apple-cheeks glowing. "Chaplain!" barked the admiral. "Where the devil are those damn sin bosuns? Ah — there you are all lurking in the corner. Which of you is in charge of this man's spiritual welfare? Who is looking after his soul?" "I am Sir." said one of the trio, : taking a diffident pace forward and shuffling uneasily. "Very well Padre, now you just tell me what you know about O'Swab's soul. All squared off, is it? Generally unstained would you say? Speak up man — and stand still!" "Able Seaman O'Swab attends divine services when he is marched to the chapel by the duty chief and he keeps his kit clean granite faced jaunty. "Before I pass sentence I note your charge reads, "...a repeated offence"...How many times did O'Swab repeat this offence? We have to be specific and accurate." "Well, sir, millions of times I guess," replied the jaunty, taken aback. "I mean every second that he is not engaged in filling out a ■ THIS IS NOT A WILL form he is, in point of fact, failing to fill it out. I should think it would be hundreds of billions of times if we worked it out on some sort of micro-second basis." The admiral eyed his jaunty malevolently, "Master-at-arms, you're as wet as a two-fathom mark. 1 will dismiss this case because you have neglected to lay 1EFFS MURRAYVILLE — "Who are these people?" asked Aid.

C.nn Ua.t Various articles around the house you might throw out or consider useless can catch a fair price and selling them can be more than half the fun. There are two flea market Swap Meets in the area. One held in the Matsqui Armory at Abbotsford Airport and one put on by the Canadian Legion at the Legion Hall in Aldergrove. Swap Meets are open to everyone, all ages and it can be a pleasurable outing for granny or an adventure for the kids. Any usable articles — clothing, remnants, appliance, tools, baking, crafts, jewelry making find their way to the meet where careful shoppers examine with a scrutinizing look for the best bargains and prices. They admire; boggle, bargain and barter for the piece of treasure they are after. YOUR JUNK IS SOMEONE ELSE'S TREASURE. Many items are very old and are valuable, collectable items and at times a rare antique with interesting tales and backgrounds to go with them. All sorts of interesting and novel items are for sale — leather work, macrame, knitted and crocheted dolls and blankets, By MERILYN ANDERSON plants, sometimes fresh produce and even fancy candles. Collectors and sellers of old coins and stamps, old glassware and even very old magazines from England find their way there and are set out with care and guarded by their owners. Both flea markets have full lunches available for a reasonable price. Coffee, sandwiches, hamburgers, pop, milk, etc. The Legions Ladies Auxiliary run their lunch counter with volunteers. Margaret Gervan — president, Lena Carr — executive committee, Marion Norfolk — vice secretary, and of course their valuable helper Walter Hopkins. Fraser Valley Swap Meet and Flea Market started February 1, 1976, by partners Mr. and Mrs. Jim Sahlin and Mr. and Mrs. Sam Yoshioka. They operate every Sunday from 9 - 4, except Christmas, New Years and the Abbotsford Air Show. A two-day meet is coming up on Saturday, November 6 and Sunday November 7. They have prizes and door- prizes donated by management and sellers, and they donate one free table per week to any nonprofit organization. Tables are $7.00 each and admittance is .25 cents. The Legions tables are $5.00 and admittance is .25 cents. Sellers like Syd Murrell — Past President of #265 Aldergrove Legion and Life member has sold there since they started in June 1975. So have Jacob Wall, Walter Hopkins and Howard Love. The Legions Flea Market numbers are 856-8057 and 856-6380. The Legion will be holding a bazaar on November 26 from 4-8 p.m. with a sewing table, bake table, white elephant, candy, bingo and a cake walk. A supper will be available at 4:30 p.m. for the low price of $2.00. The Legions Flea Market uses its money to help the O.A.P.'s and Legion functions. Anne Campbell of the Ways & Means Committee should be commended for getting the ball rolling on this project that has become fun for everyone. Sellers at F.V. Flea Market are a lively, lovely bunch of people like Viola Kiess, who sells candles cards and jewelry. Marjorie Todd who makes hand made quilts and crocheted items, knitted toys which make good X-mas stocking sniffers. And then there's Audrey Strilchuk with miscellaneous i- tems and rare collectibles. All the things for sale are not second hand but many new things as well, but don't expect any real windfalls as a seller because the buyer is there for bargains. Fraser Valley Swap Meet is contemplating opening an Arts & Crafts show in the near future if there is sufficient interest.

These affect the normal functioning of the body and are a few of the causes of learning disabilities. What is a mental handicap? it is a general term covering those persons consistently functioning at a delayed level according to the cultural norm for their chronological age. Causes may be genetic — eg. Down's Syndrome, or metabolic, emotional, environmental, or other. The program that the Langley Pre-school Developmental Association provides is for children between the ages of three to five years, who have some type of development lag or handicap. It has had full enrolment of fifteen children since April and now has a waiting list. The program is staffed with a specially trained supervisor and an experienced assistant. Besides this there are three driver-aides. These people drive the children from their homes to the school and home again as well as driving the children on field trips and swimming classes. They also assist In the class giving a 1-3 teacher- pupil ratio. The class Is located at the Glenwood elementary school and Is four hours long, five days a week. The hours are divided up into specialized instruction in the area of the child's special needs, gym time, free play, fine and gross motor skills, snack time, rest time, playground and outdoor play, swimming classes weekly, and frequent field trips. The field trips last year consisted of visits and picnics at local parks, a visit to a local supermarket and bakery, airport, fire station, dairy farm, as well as going bowling, pony riding, and a welner roast at White Rock beach. The funding for the program is from the department of human resources, day care services.

All candidates nominated for alderman and school board positions in the municipality are invited to address the meeting and to answer questions from the public. SAYS SCHOOL TRUSTEE PRESIDENT Education enough for one minister VANCOUVER — Rendina Hamilton, president of the B.C. School Trustees Association, has asked Premier Bill Bennett to make the education portfolio the sole concern of a full-time cabinet minister. In a September 24 letter to the premier Hamilton said that other provincial governments are recognizing the education portfolio's heavy load by dividing it in two — one dealing with kindergarten to grade 12 and the other with post-secondary education. "...It doesn't seem appropriate that the B.C. education portfolio should be carried in addition to another by one minister", she said. "We are confident that your government views education with the same high priority as other governments, but we believe that this should be demonstrated by making it the sole responsibility of one, full-time minister of. the Crown." Hamilton made it clear that the association is not being critical of education minister Pat McGeer, who is also responsible for the Insurance Corporation of B.C.

He was dressed in a suit of armoured mail covered by a while tunic and was holding a sword rather listlessly in his hand. A shield bearing a knightly insignia stood agains( the wall. "May I join you?" I asked. H indicated the chair opposite his with a gesture of his hand. "You musi be new here," I said. "Where are you from?" "Originally, noi far," he replied, "bul I've been in Camelol for (he past few years." "Ah," I said, "you must be member of the Round Table. 1 don't recall ever having seen a medieval knighl in here before." "And at these prices, you're not likely lo see many more," he retorted. "A dollar for a goblet of mead wine is ou(rageous." I agreed wilh a nod of my head bul. since he seemed so unhappy. I was anxious lo ask him Ihe cause of his melancholy. "It's a long story." he said. "Shall 1 (ell you?" "Please do," I urged. He laid his sword across the tabic and signalled the wailer for another mead. "I used lo live in a swamp jusi outside of Stratford with a number of other frogs." "Frogs?" I exclaimed. "Yes. 1 was a frog. There were my parents and two brothers and sisters. As well, I had a number of friends and we all lived happily on Ihc banks of a small pond. At nighl. we would croak to our hearls' contenl and the day would be passed in catching flies and other bugs, swimming or just sitting on a lily pad enjoying Ihc sunshine. But all that changed abruptly one day." "Whatever happened?" "As you know, the Shakes- pcarcan Festival at Stratford attracts many theatre-goers from around the world and one day I was caught by a foreign princess. It seems she was on a state visit to Canada and an appearance at the Festival was on her itinerary. It was when sonic officials were showing her around the area that she spotted me. That's when it happened,"., "What happened?" "She kissed me. of course." "And...?" I said. "I turned into a handsome prince. I know that sounds farfetched, but it happens in a few cases. It would undoubtedly occur CANADA POST CHRISTMAS MAIL DEADLINES OTTAWA — Greeting cards for distant Canadian points and the United States should be mailed no later than December 13 and parcels before December 3 if they arc to reach their destination for Christmas. The deadline for local delivery is December 17, Postmaster General Jean-Jacques Blais announced last week. In making his announcement, Blais urged Canadians to mail their cards and parcels abroad no later than the specified deadline and, if possible, to get them in the mail earlier. Greeting cards may not contain more than five words of written message to qualify for the lower third-class rate of 8 cents if they arc to be mailed to destinations in Canada or the United States. Cards to these points must be scaled. Greeting cards for delivery outside Canada and the united States must be scaled. They will be carried by air for 15 cents if under one ounce or by surface for 10 cents. Correspondence in scaled envelopes for these destinations must bear 20 cents postage. Further details for overseas mailing deadlines may be obtained at local post offices. more frequently but the number of princesses around has dwindled considerably in the last few hundred years, anyway, there 1 was and, under the rules, when you become a prince in this fashion, you are under a very heavy obligation to marry the girl and attempt to live happily ever after." "Didn't work, eh?" I said. He shook his head and then knocked off the last of the mead wine. "Wc moved to her father's castle and set up housekeeping in the east wing. Well, let's face it, anybody that goes around kissing frogs has got to be a little daft, anyway. And she had this bunch of dwarfs, seven of them, running around the place. If I wasn't tripping over one of those damned midgets, I was running into her mother, who spent most of her time talking to a mirror. After about two years of this, I filed for divorce and headed out across the drawbridge." "And that's when you came to Camelol?*' I suggested. "Right," he said, "although that didn't turn out any better. Oh at first it seemed pretty good because at least the Round Table was located in a decent pub and the ale was flowing like water. But after a while, when my apprenticeship was over, and 1 had to be a knight errant, it got to be a real drag." "Gee," I said, "it sounds to me like really exciting stuff." "Yeah. 1 know," he conceded, "it did to mc, too. However, you just don't know the killing pace they set for you. Mondays arc dragon-killing days. Tuesday and Wednesday you have to rescue a damsel in distress. Thursdays are the tilts where you try to unseat an opponent from his horse with your lance. Then Friday we'd gather around the Round Table and total up the points everybody earned during the week. Well. I came in for a lot of criticism. They claimed my dragons weren't fire- breathing and that several of the damsels were rescued against their will and that slaying their captors actually deprived them of a chance for a thrilling love affair." "It hardly seems fair," I said. "Was that when you decided to come here?" "Yes." he replied. "I heard thai a Viking ship had stopped nearby to do a bit of pillaging before continuing to the New World so I spoke to the captain and got a job as a slave. Unfortunately, the port of Halifax was closed by a strike so I had to fly here from New York." "What now?" I inquired. He leaned forward across the tabic. "I want to go back to my little pond." he said earnestly. "I haven't seen my parents for almost five years. All I want to do is return to my swamp and croak, so I've arranged for a wicked witch to meet me here and change me back into a frog." Just then, the public address system broadcast a request for Prince Charming to come to the front desk. He left immediately. It was shortly after that a shriek of waitresses alerted mc to the fact that a frog was gaily jumping across the floor toward me. I gathered him up, along with the sword and shield, and set out for Stratford. The reunion was heartwarming. We give it away! Free classifieds to our subscribers, that is.

Box 220 THE STAR, WEDNESDAY.OCTOBER 27,1976 The amazing adventures of Oscar McFoisy Conservation Officer Lawson battles his arch-enemy Osear McFoisy in this series of articles explaining regulations affecting B.C. outdoorsmen. Prince George Conservation Officer Doug A- dolph, of the Fish and Wildlife Branch, sheds a humorous light on the sometimes unknown risks taken by those not familiar with the law. The Statute Section 3 of the Wildlife Act states that: "No person shall angle or hunt unless he is the holder of a subsisting licence issued to him under ihe Act." The Incident It was April 1st again .and angling licences were selling at an all time high. Everyone in Muskrat Flats had one except Oscar McFoisy, who was heard to say. "I'll get one next time my cute cat has a litter!" ll only rained a little on April 3rd and Oscar, as he wound his ■ way down the cutbanks looking for a place where he would most ■likely noi fall into the stream, and where with some luck he might tie into a school of trout. Everything being relative, the fishin' wasn't bad. although he spent the whole day and caught four. Thinking about how nice the fish would taste and how lucky he was in not being bothered by the local Conservation Officer, Oscar almost whistled his way through the second verse of "Happy Days Are Here Again." when his good eye caught a glimpse of G.W.'s uniform hat walking down the trail lowards him and his only avenue of escape. That was the year of the big -blow-down, a storm that had • previously levelled everything in .ils path including all the trees, except the one from which hung a nest full of hornets who were still considering revenge. When Oscar knocked the nest down on his way past, it reminded die occupants of how mad they could gel at being tossed around again. Osear was an easy target for ihe first seven out of the hive because he froze when he recognized the familiar sound of impending disaster. The in-flight information appeared to be hammer-shaped as they zeroed in on his backside. One hornet was so good that it drilled Oscar's doft cheek from a graceful wingover at high altitude into an inverted spin and pullout, straight onio target without any wing damage al all. It seemed to be very pleased with itself. When the air cleared, Oscar advised G.W. that if it was all right with him, he would like to be arrested because he knew that Lawson always carried a first aid kil in his vehicle. The Adjudication His Honor explained to Oscar that all hunting and fishing licences expire on the 31st of March of each year. Revenue from liccnces'helps to i pay the cost of programs such as the restocking of lakes and projects that enhance wildlife populations through the administration of habitat protection and wildlife management. Sportsmen that purchase licences and tags arc given the opportunity to answer the questionnaires regarding their catch. Statistics returned may be used as part of the criteria in setting regulations and seasons. (Oscar always thought that the reason for purchasing an angling licence was so that he wouldn't have to look for a place to run to when he saw an officer). The Judge added an additional sting when he suggested that Oscar pay the fine forthwith! So don't be an Oscar McFoisy. it just isn't worth it! Let's sec what kind of trouble Osear gets into next week.

Gallup claims (hat the sample it used is accurate within a four percentage point margin of error. The question was: "On the whole would you say that in your community opinion of the leaching profession has gone up, gone down or remained the same as compared to five years ago." The response from British Columbians polled were: 'gone up' 17 per cent, 'gone down' 45 per cent, 'remained the same' 21 per cent, and 'don't know' 17 per cent, close to the national average. — Education B.C.

But the total damage's even worse than that. In an article written for a national Canadian magazine, Schcin, who is a psychology instructor, at Fraser Valley College, calls for men to study the lessons of the Women's Movement and learn to eradicate "macho" male consciousness. It is a large task, he says, "but if we do not do it now, will there be any humanity or world left?" In the October/November issue of Makara magazine, he says that division of human potential into arbitrary male or female groups begin almost at birth: children are spoken to, touched, taught to play and expected to behave according to sex stereotypes, and not according to their real feelings. These "sex roles" hurt men in five fundamental ways, says Schcin: 1. they prevent men — and women — from becoming "whole, autonomous, emotional, loving human beings." This leads to repression and to stress related diseases, he adds; repression of their "softer" side is responsible for the fact that men live on the average 12 years less than women in Canada. 2. "sex roles" turn men into "success objects," with the result (hat most men hate their work. Yet since they arc conditioned to identify wiih their work, men learn lo hate themselves and their lives. 3. men become out of touch with their sexuality: they separate sex and love, and their love- making becomes "goal-oriented." This gives most men's sex lives the shallowness reflected in magazines like Playboy and Pent- house, and causes them to fore- fcil the experience of really loving, really earing, and really experiencing their full bodies sexually/sensually, Schcin says. 4. men learn to see women as inferior beings, and then to hate them. Schcin quotes a psychological study which shows that rapists have ".normal" sexual personalities for our society; it is only in the expression of their hatred for women through violence that sex offenders dh*fer from "normal" men. 5. arbitrary sex roles prevent men from spending meaningful lime with their growing children. As a result they get out of touch with (heir own spontaneity, creativity, joy ofliving. and process of real growth. "Children arc seen by men as a hassle until they arc old enough lo play football and hockey," says Schcin, "and then, once again, seen as a hassle when they do not respect their 'old man' during the 'generational crisis'." The emotions that men repress in order to make themselves fit the stereotypical "male" role lend to come out in three ways, Schcin reports: in stress diseases like ulcers, heart disease, high blood pressure, kidney disease and rheumatism; in the emotional destruction of their women; or in "aproved" male outlets, such as violence and war. - Either way. male dominance threatens the quality of human life...and maybe even its conti- IVWVMWVMAAA^W^^1 SUNRISE FARMS ALFALFA HAY and CUBES • FERTILIZER • STRAW If we can be of service to you, please call SUNRISE FARMS 853-5991 1SS1 SUMAS WAY, Abbotsford By CST.

So let's keep our heat indoors, where it will do us the most good. As you read this supplement you'll discover that installing or adding insulation is neither difficult nor particularly expensive. Insulation conserves heating energy which in turns saves you nioney. Two things happen when insulation is added to your new or existing home. First, and most important, you save energy be* cause you use less fuel for heating. Secondly, you feel war- is made from fibres of glass, rock or slag, lt is the most common type and is probably up in your attic right now. The batts are sold in pre-packaged bundles, in 4-foot or 8-foot lengths. They vary from 2 to 6 inches in thickness and come in standard widths — to fit snugly between uniform centre ceiling joists, studs or wall strapping. Blanket insulation is sold in rolls of varying lengths, widths and thicknesses. Both types are sold with or without an attached vapor barrier. This barrier is a protective coating on one side of the polystyrene insulation are sold in panels of different sizes and thickness. They offer several advantages: high insulation value with minimum thickness and weight, rigidity, sound absorption, vapor barrier., WARNING - FIRE HAZARD! Polyurethane and polystyrene foamed plastics are now recognized as severe fire hazards when used in exposed or semi-exposed applications. As now manufactured, they not only contribute to flame spread, but produce explosive and poisonous gases under fire conditions. They should not rubber base paints, and ure- thanes. RECOMMENDED INSULATION LEVELS The recommended insulation levels for Canadian homes have been rising through the years, reflecting increased heating costs and concern for energy conservation. The precise level of insulation which can be justified on economic grounds (cost of insulation vs. fuel saving) varies with climate, fuel costs, insulation prices and other factors. It is possible, however, to recommend one set of minimum insulation levels which are generally applic- all exterior doors shall be - weathorst ripped & caulked © ^l ®- GARAGE (unhealed) T celling cable used, Install Insulation bet. heated areas j © over vented and/or unhealed areas crawl space -@ jjMMjWI overhang grade ■T^ f® t°24" Mow grade Ria If basement wall w fullyesposed note:usovR7j In Interior.wall II adjoining area unhealed able across the country. The recommended levels for existing and new housing will differ because current construction practices often limit the amount of insulation that can be added. However, innovative construction techniques will allow higher levels for new housing in the future. The building codes for new homes are presently being reevaluated and updated to meet today's energy circumstances. New construction techniques, such as 6-inch wall studs and exterior insulation, are being considered to make new houses suitable for the energy pitch ahead. Even solar heating systems are being developed and tested. When you buy or build a new house, be sure it has the maximum amount of insulation possible. You might want to look into 6-inch wall studs to permit more insulation in the walls, and consider the built-in basement insulation. Your new home should at least meet the insulation levels recommended above. The money you invest in extra insulation now will more than repay itself in the years ahead. Stepladders: stepping up Durable ceramic tile lends bright new spark to kitchen safely mer and more comfortable. From the moment heat is generated, it tries to escape into the colder air outside, lt vanishes through the ceiling and walls, sneaks out round windows and doors. The rate of escape depends on the difference between the inside and outside temperatures, and on the resistance it meets. Insulation is the key barrier that (raps and holds heat inside. . A thorough re-insulation job can cut your annual heating bill by as much as 50 percent. A more modest improvement to your insulation can save you 20 to 30 percent annually. So if your bill is now $300. a 30 percent saving could reduce it to $210. The cost of insulating all or part of a house is usually paid for in 5 years or less, through lower annual heating costs. A quick way to find out if your house needs extra insulation is to take a look outside. On a dull day, is the snow melting on the roof? If so. you don'l have enough insulation in the attic. Is snow disappearing from around the sides of the house? If so you need insulation on (he basement walls. A poorly insulated house is usually uncomfortable. Blame it on the "cold wall" effect. The inside surface of an uninsulated wall may be from 8 to 15 Fahrenheit degrees (4 to 8 Celsius degrees) colder than the same wall with insulation. If you're sitting near the wall, your body heat will flow towards the cooler surface and you'll soon begin to feel chilly. At the same time, as warm air meets the cool wall It becomes more dense and sinks towards the floor. Tljis displaces warm floor-air which rises, The result can be uncomfortable drafts. Many of us turn up the thermostat, blaming a chilly feeling on the furnace or the weather. The real problem Is often a lack or good insulation and wcalhcr protection. WHAT IS THE "R" VALUE? Years ago wc assumed that the best measure of insulation was thickness. Times and products have changed. This rulc-of-thumb is no longer reliable. Ii.sulation is now manufactured and sold by "resistance value" (called the "R" value) — a precise measurement of the insulation's resistance to heat transfer. The higher the resistance value, the less heat will escape through the insulating material. One brand of insulation may be thicker or thinner than another, but if they both show the same R value, they'll perform equally well. The R value is stamped in large letters on the cover of packaged insulation. If it isn't there, check with your dealer who should know the value. TYPES OF INSULATION You can choose from four basic types of home insulation: (1) batt and blanket, (2) loose fill, (3) rigid foam plastic. (4) foamcd-ln-placc plastic. (1) Batt and blanket insutation. This has a soft, woolly texture and insulation — using wax, tarred kraft paper, aluminum foil or plastic — to guard against moisture damage which would reduce the insulation's effectiveness. (Vapor barriers and their uses arc discussed again further on.) Batts or blankets are used to insulate frame or brick houses — in walls, over ceilings, under floors, in crawl spaces and garages. They can-be used on poured concrete and block basement walls where framing has been applied. (2) Loose-fill insulation. Loose- fill insulation is sold by the bag and may be in pellet, fibrous or granular form. When properly used, it leaves air gaps or pockets and forms an effective heat barrier. In wall cavities, however. it may settle over the years and leave a poorly insulated gap at the top. There is no vapor barrier, so one must be applied to protect the insulation from moisture. (Because loose fill is so easy to apply it's often used to re-insulate an existing home ceiling. Professional insulation contractors also use it as a "blown-in" type for the wall cavities of existing homes. Holes arc drilled in each stud space of the wall and the insulation is blown in using a compressor. The holes arc then scaled.) Loose fill is manufactured from glass, rock, slag, pulverized paper or expanded mica. The expanded mica type (zonolitc or vermiculite) can be used in new construction where the material is poured directly into the block cores. (3) Rigid foam plastic insulation. Rigid polyurethane and be used in applications which might expose them to open flame inside a building. Foam plastic insulation can still be used under these conditions: (a) inside, if covered by %" plaster or 5/8" gypsum board. (b) on the outside of concrete, masonry or wood frame walls, (c) inside masonry cavity walls, suitably fire-stopped, (d) under concrete floor slabs, (c) as roof insulation applied above structural deck. (4) Foamed-in-place plastic insulation. There are several brands of foam insulation, such as urea-formaldehyde and polyurethane, which can be foamed-in- place in wall cavities. They should be installed by a professional contractor with the proper equipment. If a low fiammability foam such as urcaformaldehyde is chosen, or if proper protective measures arc taken, this can be an effective way of retrofitting insulation in older homes. See a local insulation contractor for more details. THE VAPOR BARRIER Vapor barriers are an essential part of the insulation story. Insulation in a wall, ceiling or floor must be protected by a vapor barrier applied to the warm (heated) side of the insulation. Without it, moisture from the house air will enter the-insulation, condense and cause serious damage. Some insulation is sold with an attached barrier. Others require a separate application. Here arc some common vapor barrier materials: Polyethylene film, aluminum foil, aluminum paint, varnish and Fuel is expensive ...and broken windows cost YOU nioney!

By ELIZABETH HAWKINS One of the biggest energy- using rooms in your home is the kitchen. It's a good place to look for ways to save. There are many, many appliances on the market, ail promising to make kitchen work lighter. However, before you buy a new item or replace one that's worn out, ask yourself three simple questions: 1. Do 1 really, need this new item? How often will it be used? Do my friends or neighbors have one? Can I do the job manually or with an appliance 1 already own? Is there an alternative that won't consume energy? 2. Can I avoid those energy- draining frills? There's no doubt that I need the basic refrigerator and stove. But do I really need a butter warmer, an ice-cube dispenser, or a rotisserie? 3. What will the appliance cost meinencrgyand cash to operate? What's the power requirement over a year? Is there a more efficient unit with a lower operating cost? At a time when energy consumption is important and many people are questioning the value of gadgets, take a thoughtful moment to honestly assess your needs. Will a host of appliances really liberate you from kitchen work? These are all questions of personal choice and only you can answer them. YOURSTOVE The biggest user of energy in the kitchen is usually the stove — electric or gas. You can economize and still turn out delicious meals. Using the oven rather than several elements saves energy because once the oven reaches the required heat it shuts off and cooks with stored heat. Elements, on the other hand, are always on. Plan meals. With little forethought, meals can be planned to save energy. How about a total oven meat: casserole, baked potatoes and baked apple desert. If you have several items that fisually cook at different tempera- ures. select the average temperature and retrieve each as it's done. Multiple meals. Cook a larger- than-necded quantity of one meal. Freeze a portion of it for another day (as soon as it has cooled to room temperature). You'll save energy and money. Keep the door dosed. The more quickly you can put an item into a hot oven the less heat will be lost. Did you know that each time you open the door you lose about 20 percent of the heat that's inside? Don't peck! Don't use the oven for small jobs. If you're toasting or broiling use a smaller appliance such as a toaster or fry pan. Remember that toasting bread in the oven takes three times more energy than in a pop-up toaster. Don't pre-heat unless necessary. Usually pre-heating is a waste of energy — except for cakes and pastries. Items that will be cooking for more than an hour do not need a prc-heated oven. And setting the oven temperature higher won't make the oven heat up more quickly. Uae glass baking dishes. Glass or glass ceramic baking dishes transfer heat more efficiently than metal and let you set the temperature about 25 Fahrenheit [degrees (14 Celsius degrees) •lower. Thaw frozen foods. Most frozen foods, especially meat, should be thawed before cooking. (Do it in the refrigerator to avoid bacteria build-up.) Cooking frozen foods takes longer and uses more energy. Take meat out of the rcgrigcrator about an hour before cooking time to warm up, but be sure to keep it covered. Turn down heat new the end. If you're cooking a roast you can save energy by turning off the •heat about 30 minutes before it's finished. The remaining heat 'should be enough to finish the -job. Cheek oven temperature. At least once a year and preferably more often, check the temperature of your oven with a thermometer. You'll make sure that the dial is accurate and that you're .not wasting energy. Wanning wilh stored heat. You [ can easily warm some Items — buns or plates — with retained ' oven heat, after the main meal is cooked. Now, do you really need an electric bun warmer? Don't use oven for supplemental heal. The oven is an eipensive and Inefficient way to warm the kitchen. If you need more heat, a small space heater makes more sense. Here are some ways to save on the top of the stove. Pots and pans. Buy pots and pans that arc bright and shiny, with straight sides and flat bottoms and tightly fitting lids. Your food will cook more quickly more evenly and more economically. Does the pot fit? The bottom of the saucepan should cover the element entirely but not extend more than one inch beyond the outer ring of the element. Don't drown Ihe beans. When you're cooking any vegetable, use only a small amount of water. You don't even have to cover the don't even have to cover all the vegetables with water; the steam will cook them. You'll save energy, vitamins and flavor. Use minimum heat. Once the water is boiling, turn the dial to the lowest heat that will keep it boiling. A higher setting only creates more steam and doesn't speed up the cooking. Double boiler. Use a double boiler for vegetables sauces and heating cold food. One clement instead of two! A pressure cooker is a good fuel saver. Use it for stews, soups, pot roasts and almost all your vegetables. A vegetable steamer is another good idea. This smail, collapsible metal basket folds or expands td fit most saucepans. Very"little water — or energy — is needed to steam food. Turn off heat. Another way to save is to turn off electric burners 2 or 3 minutes before the end of the proper cooking time. The elements will stay hot and food will continue to cook. Many families have gas stoves, especially in western Canada. Most of the points above apply to both electric and and gas stoves, but here arc two special points for the gas people. Flame efficiency. A clear, blue flame is a sign of top efficiency. If the flame is vellow. or has yellow streaks in it, something is. ly clogging the outlets. Turn off the gas, remove the burner and clean the parts with a wire pipe- cleaner. If this doesn't improve the flame, call your serviceman. Flame height. When you have pots or pans on the burner elements, the flame should be just touching the bottom. It's a waste of gas to send the flame licking up the sides. REFRIGERATORS AND FREEZERS Refrigerators are now an accepted part of Canadian life, and freezers are steadily growing in popularity. They are both large consumers of energy, so it really pays to shop around when you're buying a new model. Frost-tree feature. The first shopping decision you'll have to make is between a standard and a "frost-free" model. If you take the frost-free unit, you'll pay morc when you buy it and up to 50 percent more for the electrical energy to run it. Example: A standard 12 cubic-foot model that consumes 850 kilowatts a year adds about $20 to your electrical bill. A similar frost-free model could use about 1,200 kilowatts and cost S28. The same holds ture and cost S28. The same holds true for freezers, with the frost-free model using a good deal 'more energy. Adequate insulation. Before you buy any model, check the' quality of insulation. In a cheaper unit that is poorly built, the compressor will run more often and consume more energy to keep the cold level you want. This will tend to reduce the life of the motor so that within a few years you'll either have to replace the motor or the entire unit. Your initial saving on a cheaper model can be swallowed up in higher energy costs and shorter life. Frills. Ask yourself if you really need a butter warmer, crushed- ice dispenser and other such frills. They all consume extra energy. Where your refrigerator or freezer is located has a lot to do with how well it performs. Avoid heat sources. Keep both these major appliances away from the kitchen stove, direct sunlight and heat vents. Ventilation. Leave enough space around the unit so you have a good circulation of air. If there isn't enough space, the heat generated can't escape and this puts a strain on" the cooking system. Vacuum colls. Conderser coils on the refrigerator should be kept clean. Dirt acts as an insulator and makes the compressor work longer to keep the proper temperature. Use a vacuum cleaner to pull out dirt. (Condenser coils are usually on the back, occasionally on the bottom.) Door fit. the door should be airtight so cold air can't escape. Otherwise, both the compressor and your furnace have to work harder to correct two problems. Check the seal by closing the door on a piece of paper. If you can pull it out easily the rubber gasket should be replaced. Read your owner's manual to see if you can fix it yourself; if not call a serviceman. Defrosting. The frost build-up in a refrigerator or freezer should not exceed '/< inch. Ice reduces the cooling power by acting as unwanted insulation. Defrost regularly. Setting. Don't set the temperature any colder than you need. Keep Ihe door dosed. If you tell your children a little more about energy conservation, it may help them to understand why you keep nagging them to shut the refrigerator door. Especially important in summer. Don't overcrowd. The refrigerator works best when it isn't overcrowded. There must be room for air circulation inside — otherwise the compressor will work too hard to keep the right temperature. ..... .'.:£;; Cool down hot foods. Save energy by allowing hot foods to cool before putting them away. Turn off when you're away. Before you go on vacation, clean out the refrigerator, wipe lt and turn it off. It^ also a good idea to leave the door ajar; if the light stays on, unscrew it. DISHWASHERS The dishwasher has become a popular item in the kitchen — especially with teen-agers who can escape a clean-up duty. Instead of elbow grease it uses electrical energy and a good deal more hot water. The energy consumed by the washer itself (not including hot water) amounts to about 300 kilowatt hours per year depending on how it's used. Here are some ways to economize: Wash only full loads. Your dishwasher is most economical at full capacity. Don't use it for a few plates and forks. Save them up (rinse if necessary) and do a full load at the end of the day. Correct loading. Follow manufacturer's recommendations for loading and use of detergent. It will run more efficiently and your dishes will be cleaner. Scrape dirty dishes. Pre- scraped dishes can be washed on a shorter cycle. And you don't have to worry about food particles hurting the machine's performance. Let dishes air dry. The dishwasher has a heater element to dry the dishes after the wash is completed. Stop the cycle before the element comes on and open the door. The hot dishes will dry themselves and you'll save some electricity. Don't warm plates In dishwasher. Some people use the heater element of the dishwasher to warm dinner plates before serving. Use the oven's heat instead. SMALL KITCHEN APPLIANCES Most modern kitchens have an assortment of small appliances, as well as the standard stove and refrigerator. Sometimes they make contributions to energy conservation. Often they fall into a wasteful category of electrical gadgets. Use small, efficient appliances. Fry pans, toasters and kettles are more efficient than the stove for small jobs. Example: the pop-up toaster is three times more efficient for toasting bread than the oven grill. Kettles — Clean scale. Hard- water deposits inside a kettle can reduce heat transfer. Clean them out periodically. Boil only as much as you need. Don't boil a full kettle for one cup of coffee. Jjj Twisters — Clean out crumbs and burnt-on deposits. You'll get better performance. Check filaments. Have a look at the heating filaments from time to time to be sure they're not broken. (Unplug the toaster first!) Not too dark. If you're willing to eat light and medium-brown toast, you'll save a little energy. Frying pans — Check temperature. Check the accuracy of your temperature control. Set it for 212 degrees F (100 degrees C) and see if water boils. If it's cooler than the setting, have a repairman look at it. Multi-use. You can use small aluminum foil dividers to cook several foods at one time. 24389 FRASER HIGHWAY, LANGLEY Phone 856-2531 or 530-1888 210 Ib.

True, little else brings as much familiarity and order in new surroundings, but often the rush to purchase drapery produces a regrettable mistake. From the beginning of time, windows have been a means of light and ventilation. Unless privacy is a problem, perhaps they shouldn't be covered at all. Beads, a robust fern or braid tacked to the frame may be all that's needed! No matter how terrific the daytime view is, it becomes a black hole at night. Outdoor lights and a few shrubs have all the beginnings of an exotic garden, lighting the changing climates of falling leaves, snow or rain to add immeasurably to cozy indoor comfort. Shutters, shoji screens and . vertical Venetian blinds can help prevent heat loss yet avoid the repetition of more drapery. Win* dow blinds, laminated with matching fabric 'or wallpaper are a most refreshing change tp any room, and roll up woven wood shades are as new as tomorrow! Even fabrics can be used in a dozen ways other than drapery. Giant screen prints, bold and beautiful can be stretched floor to ceiling over wooden dowels and attached to drapery tracks and "drawn" as required. Flat panels of upholstery cloth (try a heavy linen or velvet) can be positioned as stationary panels and contrasted against a crisp, full sheer between them. Fabrics can be attached to a valence over a window and used to cover a window box full of ivy at sill height. A handy husband can cut and hinge plywood panels into folding screens to be covered with co-ordinating material. Hobbies such as macrame, knitting, crocheting, weaving, tie dyeing and stained glass can be put to practical uses for dozens of unusual window treatments and even youngsters can participate in the fun of "bead" curtains with clay, paper mache or bread dough. For a dramatic effect, frame a window in the tiniest of white Christmas lights; indulge in gold or silver dressmakers' braid and simply suspend from a rod an inch apart and "weight" each piece with a Christmas ball, bells or matching tassels. So before you resign yourself to another batch of drapery, look at the alternatives, if nothing else you might spare yourself from adding to that trunkful of "has beens" in the basement you've already got leftover.

For purposes of answering this question, let us view the forest fire as one of nature's forest management tools. In this sense, fire could be seen to bring about certain beneficial results. For instance, burning is one way nature gets rid of diseased or aging trees, at the same time preparing for a fresh start. Fire clears the land making it easier for new trees to become established. In addition, it can also create conditions that arc favourable to new growth. Disease organisms and pests are destroyed. Moreover, in our cool climate, minerals from waste materials are returned to the soil ' much faster than would be the case if the old trees were left to fall and rot on the ground where they also present a serious fire hazard to new growing trees. Here, a very rough eamparison to / city conditions conies to mind. Let us look at an uncovered metropolitan slum area. There is rubbish in alleyways. The derelict buildings are not only highly inflammable, but pest ridden, unsanitary and poorly maintained. Electric wiring is on its last legs throughout. In short the area is a public health problem as well as a powder keg that could start a major fire in the city at any moment. One day an overloaded circuit ignites and in a brief space of time a whole block is burned to the ground. There is a bright side to the disaster, of course, that is similar to what happens in the forest. The area is efficiently cleared and good quality, sanitary, fire resistant housing can now be contructed on the site. Returning to the forest and looking at the negative side, we must remember that nature's methods are often wasteful and destructive. A forest fire is likely to spread out of control, fiestroy- ing acres of good healthy timber, parkland, sometimes even towns. Animals lose homes and hiding places, although certain species benefit because the plants that grow up in a burned over area provide them with added food supplies (deer, elk, moose, birds and other species that require nourishment of vegetation that grows in sunlight). A very large fire may also seriously disrupt local ecosystems and damage the regenerative capacity of certain soils for many, many years. For these and other reasons, our Forest Service is organized to prevent wildfires getting out of control on our forest land. However, all said and done, despite our most careful efforts to control fire, we will probably always have wildfires in the forest, just as wc continue to have fires in our towns. Do wc Avoid all Fire on our Forest Lands? No, wc do not. We use fire deliberately for forest management purposes, but this is only done under controlled conditions. After an area has been logged, our government requires that all left-over branches and debris be burned, the idea being to obtain the benefits, but not the disadvantages of "natural" fire. Such burning is called "prescribed" or BERDEEN LUMBER CO. "slash" burning. In this operation, the object is to achieve a quick, light fire that will do the job of removing inflammable waste material without causing damage to the soil and other elements of the ecology (keeping control at all limes, of course.) Until a few years ago. burning after logging was a blanket regulation throughout B.C. Recently, however, the government has recognized lhat the practise is not desirable in all areas. For instance, in a Coastal stand of Douglas fir with salal underneath (Douglas fir/salal ecosystem), studies will probably show that the soil is shallow without much capacity to store water. Here, burning could cause soil damage and the Forest Service may not require the burning of slash. On the other hand, in. say. a Douglas fir/sword fern ecosystem where the soil will be moist and deep, burning will usually be considered safe. Each forest area has its own conditions and considerable field work backed by scientific study is going on at the present time. Resulting knowledge is, being applied as fast as possible and will progressively modify and develop the methods used In managing our forest lauds. Whal Is Done to Protect Wildlife? Over recent years, the Forest Service has been developing a form of planning that involves "cut and leave" patterns and streamside reserves. This means scheduling loggings so that certain stands of trees are left uncut. These will provide patches of shelter for wildlife in each area and also protect streams. If you have any questions about trees and the forest please send them in. A member of the Association of B.C. Professional Foresters will reply and a book will be sent to each person submitting a question that is published.

How to live with metric ABBOTSFORD — The Consumers* Association of Canada (Central Fraser Valley committee) is holding a free public workshop. 'How to live with Metric' on Wednesday. October 27 at 8 p.m. at Centennial Park school on Gladwin Road here. The workshop will deal with such everyday metric problems as shopping in metric sizes, cooking metric, metric clothing sizes, etc. Free metric publications will be available. Everyone is invited to bring their concerns and problems along. The local CAC group also informs the public that they will provide speakers for group and organization meetings on topics of consumerism — including metric.

MEAT IMPORTANT , PROTEIN SOURCE Meal products arc looked upon as an important source of protein, points out Gail Evans, director of scientific activities for the Meat Packers Council of Canada. The human body is comprised almost entirely of proteins — skin, hair, nails, vital organs, muscles and even Ihe base of our bones. Only when an adequate amount of top quality protein is supplied can the body function normally and maintain health to continue its constant program of building and rebuilding. As large amounts of protein cannot be stored in ihe body il is important to consume protein every day. Protein is composed of 20 or more amino acids of which eight (essential amino acids) cannot be synthesized by the body and therefore must be received by eating animal protein foods such as meals, cheese and milk. As meal contains high amounts of all ihe essential amino acids, it is considered lo be a high quality protein source, according lo Miss Evans. When protein enters the stomach ii is broken into amino acids by the digestive juices. They are Ihen passed into Ihc blood stream and on lo the cells which selecl the particular amino acid need for their specific building job. it is reassuring lhal the methods employed in the commercial production of cured meats do not affect Ihe nutritional value of the meat protein. There is no significant loss of amino acids as a result of normal cooking procedures. With nutrition taking on increased importance in daily life, and with substitute and synthetic meal products gaining interest, the federal government moved recently to establish minimum protein levels for processed meal products. The Canada Food and Drug Act specifies thai: (al for fresh and uncooked sausage products e.g. breakfast sausage, Ihe total protein content shall be not less than 9 per cent, lb) for cooked sausage products e.g. wieners, bologna, the total protein content musi not be less than II percent. While meat products must meet consumer <!*flcctations from many points — appearance, price, safety, availability, convenience, consistency, etc.. il is reasonable to expect processed meals should also provide a reasonable level of nutrition. NO CHEMISTRY Do not mix household cleaning products! When blended, even cleaners that are harmless when used as directed may give off noxious gases I this is particularly true of solutions containing bleach.) PUNTS! Fifty percent of common garden plants, as well as many wild plants, are poisonous. A single bite of certain mushrooms can be fatal. Caution children never to taste any part of any plant. Only economical way to get rid of old window problems—ditch the windows! Open 7:30 a.m. until 5:30 p.m. 28728 Fraser Highway, Aldergrove Phone 856-2514 * 534-1922 The only economical way to get rid of old window problems Is to get rid ot old windows. And replace them with tight, double-glazed, maintenance-free new windows. Today, replacing old windows Is a lot morc convenient and more economical than ever before. That's all because of a remarkable development In window design: the made-to-flt replacement window. Time was when replacing old windows meant a big, time-consuming, expensive Job. The old windows had to be torn out, and the mess had to be cleaned up..Then the homeowner or window contractor had to try to make the new windows fit those old openings. Finding new windows that matched the exact site was almost always a major problem, Window openings and old windows, come In an almost Infinite variety ol different sizes. But the local lumberyard or building supplier can carry only a limited number of "standard" sizes of windows. More often than not, the "standard" size wouldn't quite nt, and the window open- Ing had to be altered to make lt lit. But today, there's the TODAY, THE MADE-TO- FIT replacement window I. the only economical way lo Ret rid of old window problem.. Because ihey are cm* torn made to the exact dimension, of the window opening, lliry fit perfectly. No structural alteration., no made-to-flt replacement window. Custom measured and custom manufactured to the exact dimensions of a window opening, a made- to-flt window has to fit. Perfectly. It Installs quickly and , easily, often In a half hour or less, from the Inside of a home. Only the movable sash and three small strips of wood need be removed from the old window frame. < And there's absolutely no need for structural al teration. No bricking In, no carpentry, no plastering, no repainting, no redecorating, Made-to-flt windows can be built to literally hundreds ot thousands of different sizes, and dozens of different styles. Once they're Installed, they start saving money for a homeowner. They practically eliminate air infiltration; that saves a lot of energy. If they're double glazed, they'll save even more energy. Insulating glass saves half of the energy that would be lost by conduction directly through single glass. And new made-to-flt aluminum windows save a lot of maintenance expense and trouble. In fact, the only maintenance they may ever need Is cleaning, and that can be done from the inside. Old windows waste en. ergy and cost a lot of time, trouble, and upkeep. The only economical answer to old window problems Is the made-to-flt aluminum replacement window.

They fought a great war (o preserve for future generations our rights to freedom, of religion, speech, politics, and the pursuit of happiness and advancement for our children. One such veteran is Frederick Arthur Phillips, born outside of Toronto and now the custodian of Matsqui Armory at Abbotsford airport. He served in Canada, United Kingdom and the central Mediterranean area. Mr. Phillips was a gunnery and wireless operator. He took part in the invasion of Sicily on July 10, 1943 and was wounded in battle. Recoopcration was in a hospital in Phillipvillc, Algeria in North Africa. He was released from the hospital in time to partake in the battle of Casino in Italy, oncof the biggest skirmishes in the war on the way toward Rome and the turning point meaning victory for the Allies in the Italian campaign. For his services to our country he received: 1939-45 Star, The Italy Star. Defence Medal and The Canadian Volunteer Service Medal and clasp. After his discharge from the army Mr. Phillips became a fishing and hunting guide in northwest Ontario for 20 years, then retired on a veteran's allowance for a back injury. He spent his summers guiding in (he Red Lake district of Ontario and his winters in B.C., giving him the chance to fall in love with the Fraser Valley. After wandering for 35 years he has finally settled in the Fraser Valley. With all the comings and goings at the armory Mr. Phillips entertains the children with his Donald Duck impersonations. The children laugh with glee and beg for more. Frederick Arthur Phillips is just one of the many men who served bur country in war. To him I pay my respects and admiration and I say humbly. Thank you. Better fall weather improves crop outlook VICTORIA — The dismal summer weather made this year's crop prospects took very bleak for most British Columbia farmers, said John Zacharias, head of the British Columbia department of agriculture field crops branch. But, an unusually warm September turned the picture around considerably, although some crops will be of lower quality, particularly forage. Zacharias said just over one month of fine weather made a great deal difference, A number of interior districts considered critical areas in August have since been able to salvage substantial quantities of hay. Some culling of herds is expected, however, there will not be heavy importations of hay into the interior as was expected to happen if poor weather persisted. Supplements Wool production declining The total Canadian wool clip is down about four per cent from 1974, according to recently published figures in Agriculture Canada's 1975 Wool Grading Report. Only three provinces — Saskatchewan, Alberta and British Columbia *- increased production in 1975 over the previous year. The downward trend in Canadian wool production can be attributed to a decline in sheep numbers because of predators and the production costs involved in wintering sheep. Auto club launches no- cost service The British Columbia Automobile Association will become the first auto club in Canada to launch a full scale no-cost emergency road service for its members. The program, which will become effective on October I, will mean that the BCAA will pay the entire cost of roadside first-aid and towing charges for any of its quarter million membersJf.they break down anywharc in. North America. BCAA president. Bill McKin* ley, said today that while members breaking down in large centres generally received help at no charge, those away from townships often had to pay bills in excess of the existing BCAA limit of $6. "For some time the association has been developing plans to end limits to service costs and eliminate expensive over charges. Now the improved financial status gained from the current dues structure and membership support of income producing services, coupled with greater efficiencies within the association, has made the program feasible", he stated. McKinley said the program would especially benefit members travelling far from major centres, both in and outside the province. "As long as club members follow the simple rules for calling BCAA service centres In B.C. they will get service at no cost. Outside B.C. members need only send in their paid bill for full reimbursement by their club," he commented. McKinley said the program had been tried on a limited basis in the U.S. and Europe but generally in densely populated areas with -short distances between service 'reenters. "Here in B.C. with mountainous terrain, sparse population and long distances, the cost of rescuing cars is much greater and wc arc. in effect, pioneering a service which will be closely watched by automobile clubs all over the wprld." He warned that costs of the new program could become astronomical if used by members who refused to maintain their cars or by motorists posing as BCAA members. "Drivers who use the association to give their poorly maintained cars almost daily service could have their membership cancelled, and the club will be watching closely for the illegal use of membership cards by friends and relatives of members." He said that as a non-profit organization linked with morc than 20,000 Canadian Automobile Association and American Automobile Association emergency road service QpMrtors, the BCAA was iatife best position to offer the new rescue program. "It's a bold step by the association and will provide a vast new money-saving service to motorists at one of the lowest membership fees in Canada," McKinley added. to cattle rations will be required in some areas. Fall ranges are in excellent condition because of high summer rainfall and their use is being extended. Charlie Carter, head of the horticulture branch, commented that in general, good weather is a must to the end of October to complete the harvest of most horticultural crops. In the lower mainland area, corn crops for processing are still in danger. Harvesting of most other horticulture crops. In the lower mainland area, corn crops- for processing are still in danger. Harvesting of most other horticultural crops in that area is completed or nearing completion. In the Okanagan, late varieties of apples are being harvested but favourable weather conditions are necessary for another few weeks. Mid-season and late-season grape varieties are in danger in the central okanagan. Warm weather is essential until the end of October to increase the sugar content to an acceptable level before harvesting, according to Carter. lt is estimated about 90 percent of the Peace River area grain crop is harvested. Once again, two more weeks of good weather are needed to complete the harvest. The province's potato harvest is SO percent complete and not considered in danger. R s ritchie-smith ltd.

THE STAR, WEDNESDAY.OCTOBER 27,1976 By gondola up Prince Rupert's Mountain Photo-Story by Gladys Blyth From the outset Prince Rupert's new Mouth Hays Gondola Lift has been tagged "an experience", "spectacular" and "un- paralled in the Pacific northwest". As such it is the result of men of vision — something, akin to the characteristics of the man for whom the mountain was named. The project began three years ago when members of the Rainbow Lake Ski Club became disenchanted with a cumbersome and limited facility at Rainbow Lake, some 20 miles (32 kilometres) drive and a ten-minute climb, outside the city. With professional advice, the club set its sights on a facility closer to home. Many considerations went into the decision to locate on Mount Hays. The facility had to provide winter skiing and serve as a summer tourist enterprise. Mount Hays is close to town and overlooks Prince Rupert, with a view of the islands and ocean extending from Tow Hill on the Queen Charlottes to the snow- crested Aleutian Chain in Alaska. To reach the 1850-foot (555- metre) level, directly above Prince Rupert, crews of men brought in by helicoter in August of 1974, cut a ribbon of slash to the crest of the mountain. Pylons to support the 4,000-foot (1200- metre) lift were installed in cement foundations and the overhead transit cables put into place. Upon completion, it became the steepest gondola lift in North America, with 26 four-passenger cars providing an uphill capacity of 880 people per hour. A 2200-foot (660-metre) T-bar and two rope tows were installed to service eight ski runs that in H&&* turn provide 500 vertical feet (150 metres) of skiing. A terminal building and drive station were erected at the base of the mountain. At the crest a second terminal building, generator plant and night lighting facility were constructed. A chalet was added and now welcomes visitors to steak and seafood specialties in the Eagle's Nest, with dancing and discotheque on a summer's evening. .There is also a well-stocked ski shop with rental equipment to service the needs of skiers. To groom the ski area a 301 Bombadier grooming machine was places on site to pack the ski runs to a ten-to-twelve foot base. Snowfall on the mountain can be any depth to 30 feet (nine metres) throughout the winter. Manager and Ski School Director Clive Sharpe says, "As It stands now the facility offers a fun-filled evening for after ski hours in the winter months and is one of the best and most unique night spots in the summer months. Forty percent of the passengers of the eight summer coastal cruise ships have enjoyed a ride to the top of the lift." Projected plans are to provide nature trails and walkways on the mountain top for summer enjoyment. Other plans are to expand the chalet to provide better dining facilities and to enlarge on the ski program. Hays Mountain was named to commemorate Charles Melville Hays, the railway magnate who persuaded London and Ottawa in 1903 to extend the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway (now the Canadian National Railway) from Winnipeg to the Pacific Ocean and to build the terminous that in 1910 became the incorporated city of Prince Rupert.
