The Aldergrove chamber has once again viewed these lanes and find them in a deplorable condition, says chamber secretary Walter Liber. He has sent a request to Langley district municipality that the chamber be informed of what plans exist for the upgrading and paving, of the lanes in 1976. "We hope that Ungley municipality will seriously try and have these back alleys In Aldergrove done this year," says Liber. Eaiter day, than lo visit this daffodil growing community. The fields are just blazing In yellow blooms, and the show has over 400 varieties of daffodils on display, together with many more spring flowers. The official opening Is at 2 p.m. Saturday, but the show Is open from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. all three days. Inflation hits blood bank Inflation has hit the Red Cross blood transfusion service, despite the fact that blood is donated free by voluntary donors and given free to hospital patients. The problem is that the cost of collecting, processing and distributing the blood has grown from an average of SI I per unit in 1971 to a projected average of S30 per unit in 1976. Each unit contains four fifths of a pint. In an effort to keep costs down, particularly travel expenses, the Red Cross Is reducing the number of clinics held outside the lower mainland and attempting to in crease the amount of blood collected at Greater Vancouver and lower mainland clinics. In previous years, approximately half the 115,000 units of blood collected in B.C. came from the lower mainland and half from other areas of the province. The eventual goal is to increase the lower mainland clinics to 70 per cent of the total. Florence Edwards, director of blood donor recruitment, hopes that the increase will come from increased attendance at all clinics. "We can only cut costs by getting more donors per hour going through our clinics," she explained. "The cost of running a clinic is almost the same whether we collect 50 units of blood or 150." Aldergrove area residents can help fill the blood bank (and reduce costs) by turning out in large numbers at the next Red Cross blood clinic. It will be held in the Old Age Pensioners hall, Thursday, May 6, from 5 to 8 p.m. "Come and bring a friend," says Ms. Edwards. By KURT LANGMANN MATSQUI — Council here received a letter from Langley township which has informed Matsqui that Langley is not able to enter into an agreement for joint use of the Aldergrove sew age facility. ' Citing a report from their planning officer, Langley council felt that there will not be sufficient excess capacity in the discharge pipe to the Fraser River to accommodate any part of Matsqui. Residents osk for six-lone curling rink ALDERGROVE — Two requests for a six-sheet curling rink to be built in this town were received by township councilors in Murrayville Monday afternoon. One request came from the Aldergrove and district chamber of commerce, the other from 195 local residents and taxpayers. A letter from the chamber asserted: "(We) would like to know when the municipality of Ungley is going to build the curling arena in Aldergrove. At present there are approximately 50 curlers from Aldergrove curling at the Langley civic arena (at Brookswood) and numerous others from Aldergrove not being able to curl because of lack . of an arena." ' The letter from chamber secretary Walt Liber further said that one-and-a-half acres of land for a curling rink site was purchased by the municipality when the ice arena on Jackman Road was bought from Jack Loeppky more than a year ago. This site is all ready to be built on. The foundation area has drain rock and sand in place, storm drains in place, underground wiring in place, sewer in place, and the working drawings for a six sheet rink are on file in the municipal building department. Plans were prepared by Loeppky and were part of the complete parcel when the sales transfer took place. "With the residential growth increasing in Aldergrove the chamber would like to see this curling arena built this year. We hope the municipality will concur with the chamber in having the arena built in 1976," The other request came in the form of a petition from the almost 200 local residents. Ungley attributed growth potential, particularly recent approval of narrower lot sizes and a large number of multiple housing unit proposals as reasons for the revision of effluent quantity estimates. These estimates show that Aldergrove, when fully developed, will require almost all of the total capacity of the discharge pipe. This letter, written April 6, put an end to well over a year's negotiations and planning between the two councils. Matsqui mayor, Harry DeJong, expressed disappointment with Langley's position Monday evening, but alderman Chuck Wiebe felt that possibly it may be better for Matsqui' to plan sewers in an easterly direction so that a greater portion of the municipality could tie in to sewers. Alderman "Spud" Murphy doubted the financial feasibility of Wiebe's suggestion, and remarked sadly that, "it's their (Lang- ley's) marbles and their purse strings." Mayor Harry DeJong moved that a meeting with the landowners of the 212 acres bounded by Aldergrove be set up to discuss alternatives regarding the area's drainage and zoning problems. See editorial, page 4. Aldermen are cold to pay raise bylaw MURRAYVILLE — Aid. Jock Lindsay failed to get a seconder for his motion Monday afternoon that Langley district council's new remuneration bylaw receive first reading. The bylaw thus fell flat. It was detected, inspected, rejected and thrown out. The bylaw would have raised the mayor's yearly salary from $10,000 to $10,630, and the individual aldermen's from $4,800 to $5,100. Bylaw was drafted last week by Clerk Derek Doubleday on instructions by Mayor George Driediger. Driediger was absent at this week's meeting. "Well, if we can't get past first reading there is no need to go to second or third reading," said acting mayor, Aid. Jim Lee. Councilors still didn't speak up. At the present time it is unknown whether the old bylaw is then still in force. In other words if - or ifn't • the councilors are still on the public payroll. Dog pound operation still not solved MURRAYVILLE — Councilors here recently decided to grant a contract for one year for the operation of a municipal dog pound to Ihe Ungley Association for the Retarded. ... The pound, "however, is still' very much a topic for discussions whenever councilors get together. All people living in the vicinity of the proposed site at 44 Avenue and Fraser Highway should be contacted by letter and informed of council's intentions, Aid. Bill -Blair said Monday morning. "<■ These same people have in the Kitsul backs rink proposal ALDERGROVE — Ungley district should go ahead and build a curling rink at Aldergrove now, Aid. Dan Kitsul said Monday afternoon. Requests for a six-icesheet curling rink here were received by council Monday afternoon from the local chamber of commerce and a group of citizens. Aid. Bill Blair was a little more reluctant. He said that, well, the civic arena in Brookswood only had four sheets. Blair was in favor of passing the question on to Langley's arena committee. Acting mayor, Aid. Jim Lee said the Aldergrove groups should be informed that the "matter is under consideration," with the study to be undertaken by the arena committee. past voiced objections to first a cemetery and then a remand home for juvenile offenders, Blair pointed out. Blair and fellow councilor, Aid. Elford Nundal said that "a referendum", should be held to determine if peoplewlthinaonc- Sewer user rates up MATSQUI — The Central Fraser Valley Regional District has given notice that sewer user rates for the two municipalities in the joint sewer board, Abbotsford and Matsqui, will be increased by 10 percent. This increase will cost the average user an additional five dollars per annum, and is the first increase since the joint sewer board was established in 1956. RCMP favor traffic light ALDERGROVE — Ungley RCMP are in favor of a street light being installed at 264 Street (Bellingham Highway) and Robertson Crescent. Inspector Ted Wilson of the , Murrayville detachment says a light at this location "would be an asset to the motoring public as both streets are reasonably heavily travelled." The major highway intersects with Robertson Crescent at the brow of a hill and this intersection is obscured to southbound traffic on 264 Street, Wilson says. Police feel a traffic light here would be an asset in accident prevention. Ungley district council, however, had earlier decided not to proceed with plans for a light at the Intersection and a letter from Wilson was received and filed for future reference when councilors met Monday morning. Driver will carry on LANGLEY — At least 73 people living in rural Ungley would hate to see a municipal bus service discontinued, Urry Kosman told district council Monday afternoon. Kosman, who has been driving the bus for almost five years, said he would be willing to continue the service if he could get the municipality's backing in obtaining a busline charter from the Public Utilities Commission. The bus route, mainly catering to elderly rural residents, will be liscontinucd on June 24 if Kosman is not successful. He asked If council would guarantee the transfer of a $600 yearly subsidy to him from the former busline operator, Lyle Pcnzer. This, he said, was a requirement by the B.C. Motor Vehicle Branch. Kosman said he was confident he could make a profitable business out of the bus service. But it would take some "revising," he said, "improvement and advertising." Councilors said they would be willing to transfer the subsidy to Kosman, but that they would want a meeting first with Penzer. "We don't want to take his charter away," said Aid. BUI Blair. Penzer still owns a chartered Ungley bus service, although he plans to quit the service to rural residents in mid-summer. Weekend cloture The office of the Aldergrove Star will be closed Friday and Saturday of this week, due to Easter holidays. The office will resume normal business hours again Monday, when classifieds will be accepted until 2 p.m. and 'Too Ute to Classify' till Tuesday noon. A very enjoyable Easter holiday to nil! mile radius from the LAR site would be opposed to the pound in their neighborhood. Clerk Derek Doubleday said he would be sending out a letter to land owners in the area "telling them what is going to happen." If someone had strong feelings a- gainst he or she could register a complaint with the municipal hall. The two aldermen said that these notices should contain a ballot with a clear option of 'yes' or 'no' which the recipients could then return to the district. Councilors had already approved a motion to grant a contract to Matsqui dog pound operator Tom McMath at Bradner when along came the LAR with their contra proposal last month. Her Majesty's Royal Evaders MURRAYVILLE — Councilors here have once again been invited to take part in the great Fraser River raft race to be held on Sunday, May 23. The race, a yearly event sponsored by a municipal council on the other side of the river, runs from Mission City to Haney. Mayor and aldermen from Maple Ridge will be floating down the river in late May and, should Ungley council "have the brawn, brains and intestinal fortitude", have thrown the challenge at their fellow politlcos to join the great race. South of the river, however, local pettifoggers arc a more cautious breed. In all the years councilors from throughout the lower mainland have been plying the river waters at a leisurely pace, Ungley has never been represented. The invitation was received Monday afternoon, and tabled for decision at a later date. Would you believe May 247 ' Principal wants end to controversy By RUDY LANGMANN LANGLEY — "Read the damn thing." So said the principal of the Peterson Road elementary school, George Main, at a meeting attended by about 200 parents In the school gym Monday night. And a legal advisor to the school board, Pat Staplln, agreed that it would probably be the best to read a statement strongly criticizing Main which was submitted by an elusive group of parents calling themselves 'Concerned Parents of Peterson Road school'. Staplln said that since the brief had beep handed to the press last week and therefore had become "a public document" it would! probably be best to read it aloud for everyone to hear, although he warned that some of the statements made In the brief could be considered libellous and the public reading therefore would further the libel against the principal. Parents voted not to have the public reading, and immediately after this they voted an overwhelming confidence in Main. More than one hundred hands shot up In support of the principal while only one lone couple In the audience voted against this confidence motion. Speakers In the audience said the document, a copy of which was handed to The Star outside a closed school board meeting the previous week, was "nothing but a series of incoherent abuses" against Main, that the 'Concerned Parents' only represented "very few" (five or six parents), and that while minorities have the right in a democratic society to hold dissenting views, they do not have the right to use character assassination without risking legal recourse. Since the board meeting last week the case of the dissatisfied parents versus the principal was reported in two other weekly papers and broadcast over two radio stations, but unfortunately very one-sided reports appeared. Media people from Ungley and New Westminster did not hither to thoroughly investigate the case and presented it only as seen through the eyes of the 'Concerned Parents', Dissatisfaction with these somewhat biased press reports was also voiced by parents in the huge gathering. Main said he would like to end the fighting that has been going on for three years and which intensified during the first three months of 1976. That is why he would like the complaints read aloud to all the parents so the matter could finally be brought all the way out Into the open. Not only the great majority of the parents, but the children at Peterson Road as well, are apparently supporting their principal. Main said that last week, after a report of the controversy appeared In a Ungley city paper, he himself had to stop five petitions which were being passed around among the young students at the' school, all asking that he remain In his professional job. "I am too concerned about the children to have this thing going on and on," Main said. The spokeswoman for the 'Concerned Parents', Diana Sampson was not present at the meeting. ' Several of the parents in the audience said they thought she should be sued for libel, but Staplln poittcd out that this is a very hard course to take and that the decision would rest with the person against whom the attacks were mainly directed, Main himself.

Andy Krcbs is preparing plans for a subdivision at Jackman Road and 28 Avenue, and asked council if the municipality could inspect one of the 25 new homes now on the drawing board so that he 'could get construction under way. That way. Krebs said, his framing crew would not have to sit around waiting for approval while the spring months pass. He said he has installed two lift stations to eventually take care of the drainage of the subdivision, in order that approval would not be held up pending the construction of the final drainage scheme for the area. "Planning (department) sees no problem," he said. "We don't either," said an alderman. It is just a technicality, a couple of aldermen said, that a public hearing into a land use contract will have to be held before Krebs could get his approval. In the meantime, he was told, he can do nothing. The application will have to be passed back and forth between the planning department and council a few times before the date for a public hearing can be set. Municipal planner Stan Van Meer said the meeting could probably be held sometime during the middle of May. "It is a formality and requirement under the municipal act," said Aid. Jim Lee, and fellow councilors Bill Blair and Elford Nundal moved the case proceed according to rules. j— m j |PS ■ m%*c* iiiiilnW Ii Jh*T* *2 1 "^Mft ail War*- J MM '"" $&H w w H -7* \m\an*\T^ Langley okays area for industry Close,but not close enough jrk a fa fa. .«i .«k r*. 1%\}t Corporation of % tEota typ of Jlangkg Public Hearing A PUBLIC HEARING will be held In the Municipal Hall, on Monday, April 26th, 1976 at 1:30 p.m. 'To consider an application for a Land Use Contract to permit the development of a twenty-five (25) unit, low profile, Townhouse Development under the Strata Titles Act.

Doubleday Clerk-Administrator 15-3118-2 Fraser Valley College may become the fourth college in B.C. to subsidize the travel of students who live a long way from the campus. A motion to pay travel/boarding allowances to Hope* students was made Monday by Councillor Phil Nash, who represents the Hope School Board. FVC Council tabled the motion until its May meeting, to give the administration time to estimate the cost of the plan. Council behind eight ball LANGLEY — A recreational facility would be built at the Village Market at 5393 - 248 Street if owner John Hunter could obtain permission from district council to install billiards, a shuffle board and ping-pong tables in a building adjacent to the store. When the request came to council this week, aldermen could sec nothing morally wrong with the shufflcboard-ping pong idea. But the billiards, of course, is something else. Shooting pool, as we all know, is corrupting to the soul as it is degrading to the body. And there is an elementary school nearby. Of course, as one alderman said, the pupils at this school might have trouble in reaching over the edge of the table. They would therefore not immediately fall prey to the hedonistic ways of the professional pool sharks. But to make doubly sure councilors decided to ask the opinion of Langley's school board. "On previous (simitar) occasions we have asked their opinion." said Aid. Bill Blair. Last call for YELLOW PAGE LISTINGS Erling Close, Dean of student services, said that about 25 students from Hope Secondary would be eligible to enter college next fall. The proposed allowance of $75 per month paid to all those students would total $19,000 for the academic year, he said. Councillor Nash pointed out that Hope School District pays more than $200,000 a year into the College's operations, and has only a few full • time students attending. "$75 a month won't pay the costs of commuting, but it would help," Nash said. "It would help pay the cost of boarding in Chilliwack. We'd rather have them boarding in Chilliwack than in Vancouver, because they can come home for the weekends." Dave Greenwood, representing the Chilliwack School Board, said he was sympathetic to the problem of Hope students, but pointed out that "Third and fourth year students attending UBC get no help if they live in Abbotsford or Chilliwack." Bill Davies of Chilliwack, in answer to Nash's question "What do we get for our $200,000"'. answered, "There is now a facility 65 miles closer than there used to be. It has of necessity to be located in the area of the greatest population." "Then I'd have to insist that we put more of FVC in Hope." answered Nash. Councillor Bill Davies cautioned, "We need time to digest what we've already bitten off . . this could create an influx of students we're not ready for .. There is a certain amount of settling down to be done." Councillor Shirley Leone cautioned against delaying a decision, pointing out that "this has been in the discussion stage since the college began." The other colleges paying transportation allowances are Malaspina, (at Nanaimo), New Caledonia (at Prince George), and Okanagan (at Kelowna). The three newest colleges, Northwest (at Terrace), Northern Lights (at Dawson Creek) and North Island (at Campbell River) all intend to pay allowances once they arc operational, council was told. LANGLEY — Municipal council here Monday approved a bylaw permitting development of a 60-acre industrial park in northwest Langley. The project to be known as the West-Lang Estates, is in a 680- acre industrial area between the Fraser River and the 401 freeway, just east of the Surrey border. Although the area is considered prime agricultural land, it had been marked for potential urban use on the regional plan for many years, and was released for development from the agricultural land reserve. "We're trying to build a high class development. No smokestacks, no ICBC junk yard," industrial development coordinator M.J. Harper said. The insurance corporation two years ago had considered Langley for the site of its main car salvage yard but met strong opposition from municipal council. Ken Major [left] was presented with a 30-year certificate Monday afternoon, and James Nelson received a 20-year certificate. Major Is the chlel planning officer at Langley municipal hall and Nelson has worked with the public works black- topping department for a number ol years. Presentations were made by acting mayor, Aid. Jim Lee. CENTRAL FRASER DIRECTORY THE YELLOW PAGES SECTION of your new telephone directory Is closing NOW! Are your listings O.K?

Aldermen Art Brooks and Bill Blair said that subdivides in this category received nothing in return for their development tax, since this money seldom is used for any improvements in a rural residential area. Building slews Adventists plead for freedom of religion MURRAYVILLE - Chairman of council's administration committee,1 Aid. Elford Nundal commented Monday morning that there had been a noticeable decline in building activity throughout the district during the month of March as compared to the same month of last year. Nundal said construction activity in the housebuilding industry seemed to be going pretty good during the first two months of 1976 but now has slowed down considerably. District's in the money MURRAYVILLE — From the district's statements of receipts and expenditures up until March 31 • „ Bond still locked in ALDERGROVE — Langley municipality still holds a $5,000 bond posted by the builder of the local ice arena, Jack Loeppky about one year and a half ago. And councillors have no immediate plans of releasing this holdback money which was to guarantee that everything structural in the building was sound. Aid. Jock Lindsay said Monday morning that the municipality should retain the money "until we are satisfied." "'But when are you going to be satisfied?" asked clerk-administrator Derek Doubleday. "When are you going to know (if the building is okay)?" Aid. Dan Kitsul said council had to face the fact that sooner or later they would have to make a final decision. Is - or isn't - the structure satisfactory? Kitsul said that otherwise the district could hold the money "for the next 20 years." A decision should be made, he said, and either Locppky's money should be released or else the municipality should keep it forever. "it might appear that we are in a favorable (financial) situation," Aid. Jim Lee commented at Monday morning's meeting of council. Other councilors, however, warned that the financial* statements for the first quarter of the year did not present the total and precise figure of the municipality's fiscal position, There were times during the year, they said, where expenditures would by far outstrip the cash receipts. Council accommodates business MATSQUI — An application by Abco Industries Inc. of 4143 Mt. Lehman Road has been forwarded to development committee by municipal council in an attempt to seek a zoning to suit this unusual enterprise. The Wi acres, presently zoned CS-2, is occupied by a residence, service station and a small manufacturing business, all of which have been established for a number of years. The manufacturing business is currently undergoing expansion and as there is no zoning which covers all three uses, a decision could not be made at this time. Abco manufactures light farm and food processing equipment. LANGLEY — Seventh Day Adventists - as could have been predicted - do not agree with the Langley Ministerial Association that the law should be laid down and the Lord's Day Act thrown at greedy merchants who do not intend to keep the Sunday holy. In a letter to council the Langley Adventists made a plea for religious freedom in an appeal against the full application of the Act. They said that orthodox Hebrews, Jews. Seventh Day Adventists and Seventh Day Baptists should not be pushed into conformity with rules laid down by other religious and Christian sects that Sunday is the only day of rest as ordained by a supreme celestial being. To the Jews as to the Seventh Day Adventists and Baptists Saturday is the day prescribed in the Bible as the day of rest. The local Adventists suggest that an option be available so that people can shop anytime during the week, as long as commercial establishments keep closed cither Saturday or Sunday. Is this really necessary? LANGLEY — District council has received an inquiry from Langley city council if the municipality would be willing to pay SO per cent of a new activated crossing at 44 Avenue and 200 Street. The crossing, right on the boundary between the two Lang- leys, cost a total of $10,234.00. "Is this a necessity?" asked former finance chairman, Aid. Art Brooks of the request. On a motion by the present finance chairman, Aid. Elford Nundal, the matter was referred to the public works subcommittee for comments. PNE holds line on prize money Prize money offered by the PNE at its annual Fairtimc Livestock Shows will again total some $88,000. The PNE Finance Committee had recommended that prize money made available by the Exhibition be trimmed from $88,000 to $75,000 on a total Livestock Show budget of $222,500. The PNE Board, however, felt that prize money should remain the same as in 1975. This will be done by effecting economies in other areas of the livestock budget. These economies will be recommended by Agricultural Advisory Committee chairman Ralph Barichello and his committee. Weather Report By NOBM GREEN 1876 TamptfalurM Pracfp.

Campaign chairman and vice- chairman for the. area are a Bradner couple, Gordon and Zenovia Stenner. The Stcnners are hoping 250 people will canvass residential districts in this area during a one- night blitz and raise most of the needed money. The business sector will also be canvassed. "If you don't need our help, we do need yours," says Gordon, an Abbotsford businessman, quoting the 1976 campaign theme. A number of zone captains have been lined up by the Sten- ners. In control in the Aldergrove area is Walt Liber, a local businessman and secretary of the chamber of commerce. Canvassers are still needed. Anyone willing to serve as a canvasser for the Red Shield in this area should contact either Liber at 856-6903 or the Stenners at 856-6660. "It crosses all denominational barriers," says Stenner of the House of Concord), alcoholic and drug addiction rehabilitation centres, overseas missions and a great variety of other social services. Stenner is making a plea for the co-operation of churches, community groups, service clubs, the business community, and - last by not least the resident-donors. Chairman of last year's campaign was Frank Bogle, manager of B.C. Tel in Abbotsford. Bogle will this year assist Gordon and Zenovia in their work. The Royal Bank in Abbotsford will assist in the banking of receipts on May 3. Canvassers will all be carrying proper identification, since most arc not normally connected with the Salvation Army, Stenner points out. The campaign organizers hope to raise S'/i-million in the greater Vancouver area. Proposal "outright theft" MATSQUI — Council here has endorsed opposition to the Canadian Radio and Television Commission's proposal to require Cable Television operators to replace advertising originating in the U.S.A. with Canadian commercials. Alderman Claire Baldwin termed the CRTC proposal as outright theft. ALDERGROVE — Koehlcr Meats on Jackman Road has renewed a request with the district municipality that they be allowed to connect to the new Aldergrove sewage disposal system. The meat manufacturing plant is located just outside the area included in the sewered area. Municipal engineer Wayne Randell told council Monday morning lhat a cost-sharing proposal would have to be worked out with Kochler before approval could be granted.

By MARK ROSE Behaving like a wild-eyed moderate, at least most of the time, seems to be my temperament. It's been said that I lack that "inner rage" which turns a , person into a dogged and fierce fighter for his or her point of view, and even suggested that my tolerance is merely a disguise for indifference. Whether my relative security accounts for it. or my upbringing and educational background, or whatever, I go through life unsuspecting of other people's motives, failing to sec the conspiracies shaping up all around me. So naturally I was duly alarmed last week to rcod in one of the Valley weeklies the headline "Revolutionaries. Waiting in the Wings." The story below dealt with a meeting of the Langley Rod & Gun Club to discuss the subject of gun control, specifically Bill C-83 dealing with the issue and currently being debated before the federal parliament. There were club members, it was reported, who maintained that the proposed legislation, under the guise of being a public safety measure, was really a gigantic Liberal conspiracy designed to disarm the public in preparation for a right or leftwing takeover. Some of the quotes: "...established crime syndicates arc looking forward to the day when they can gain easy access to lists of registered Canadian gun owners ... criminals, subversives, Maf- iosa. and revolutionaries are just waiting for the day when the federal government's 'new gun control legislation is passed ... would-be dictators of the far left or far right arc just woiting for the same thing ... the first thing (Hitler and his gang), did in France and other European countries ... was going to the gun registration office to see who owned firearms." Now, these frightening threats to the security of our nation had escaped me entirely, sheltered as I am in my naivety, and I was forced to give some serious thought to them. Overcoming my unawarencss of an impending uprising of revolutionary extremists in our midst, 1 visualized a citizens' army weirdly equipped with a vast assortment of shotguns, hand guns and varied-calibre sports rifles taking to the hills to protect democracy for the rest of us defenseless nincompoops. And it made me wonder, naturally, If even more people should have guns, just to add to our protection. Then I got to thinking about an actual invasion of our country. And It seemed to me that it would be an extremely unfair contest of our fiercely lighting lpyal partisans were forced to battle against automatic wea pons, rockets, etc. And that led mc to consider the wisdom of perhaps abolishing present restrictions against the domestic possession of machine guns, cannons and explosives. One thought led to another and it suddenly occurred to me that those membership lists all Gun Clubs have would be just the thing for some Hitlerlan force to get their hands on... like the man said. Well, every group has It kooks, I know. But within an organization such as a gun club 1 don't believe they should be permitted as members. Apart from the potential danger these types present in themselves (anyone so irrational to express the quotes above should not be trusted with a peashooter, let alone a deadly weapon) the image of the B.C. Wildlife Federation suffers because of such wild utterances. Everyone owes a debt of gratitude to Wildlifcrs — for the most part sensible, moderate and responsible people — who have, over the years, and in the face of stiff resistance, enlightened the public to the serious consequences of pollution and endangering species of fish and animals. The association has stated they favor strong firearms control, and their case for seeking improvement of Bill C-83 deserves support. But for the sake of your credibility,, get rid of those sickles. iences of how communities grow and change and how services to families must change with the community. Langley is in the process of rapid changes and in the year ahead, Langley Family Ser- - vices will be looking at those changes and the additional services to families that will be needed. Also on the agenda will be a report from the Langley delegates on the B.C. Conference on the Family local discussion groups who arc meeting to consider what should be done to support family life today, and to record and pass along their views. A further Conference on the Family will be held in Richmond in November to consider these decisions. The B.C. Conference on the Family is sponsored by the provincial government, numerous religious bodies and other family agencies. Langley Family Services Association has been in operation at 204S8 Fraser Highway, Langley, since 1971. Its purpose is to be a resource for families as they seek to cope with the strains and stresses of modern society, They hope to bridge the gap between families and the community resources available to them by providing counselling and information services that will enable families to utilize their own inner resources to the best advantage. In addition to offering individual counselling, a variety of group, counselling programs are in process such as women's growth groups, youth groups and "Coping Today", open to anyone finding it hard to cope with problems alone. Other programs are Big Sisters, Legal Advice, Visits to lonely and isolated, Women's Drop-In and Community Information.

This action, which ended more than a year's negotiation and discussion that had only recently come to final stages, is moreover, Illogical. Langley claimed that revision of effluent quantity estimates showed "that the Aldergrove community, when FULLY DEVELOPED, will require ALMOST ALL OF THE TOTAL CAPACITY OF THE DISCHARGE PIPE." This Is [pardon the expression] Illogical logic. Certainly, when Aldergrove Is fully developed, total capacity will be required, in fact, sewer facilities will require expansion, because surely development will not stop dead at 10 to 13,000 population in the 10 to 15 years council reckons upon. At this very moment there are plans on the board for between 500 to 1000 new units In Aldergrove that are Just waiting for the green light. These units which will be completed before December, perhaps by this summer, will double Aldergrove's presently serviced population of 3,000. On that basis Aldergrove will be at capacity before five years, and council thinks it will stop there? Hardly. But that is no reason to say no to the landowners of Matsqui. A great number of them are literally in limbo; they own acreages which they cannot farm because the Land Commission has zoned the area urban, and yet they cannot develop either because Langley has rejected their plea for servicing and Matsqui so far has been unable to provide needed facilities. Meanwhile property assessment Is escalating to the point where some find It difficult to hold on to their property. If these landowners ere willing to pay their fair share for a service that they so badly need — well, why not? It will reduce the user cost lor those presently serviced and wilt provide an even greater financial base for the sewage treatment expansion that will come, whether in five years Or fifteen. We're neighbors — we share the same shopping facilities, the same ice arena, even emergency fire protection to some degree. And Matsqui was willing to help in boosting Aider- grove's water for fire protection, during dry periods. Why should we put up a fence now — why should we create hard feelings among our friends and neighbors?

Postage paid In Aldergrove, B.C. Maybe next year? We note with interest that the provincial minister of municipal affairs, Hugh Curtis, has stated that increases in salaries granted this year by municipal officials to municipal officials will be "frowned upon." Maybe this Is what caused Langley district aldermen to reject their new remuneration bylaw Monday afternoon. Curtis, himself, of course took a dip In his own salary during this year of "restraint" and "belt-tightening". He is now, along with fellow cabinet ministers paid $43,200 a year - a token cut of $4,800 to fulfill at least one of the Social Credit pre-election promises. The salaries can always be slipped up again quietly but sub^antially in a year's time. An alderman, receiving 10 percent of the salary of a minister of the crown, is probably worth a raise. > But at the same time, there Is much merit to statements made by Langley aldermen Dan Kitsul and Jim Lee that a newly elected council should not be concerned with upplng their own take-home pay first thing. A disappearing art As the nation fusses over what Prime Minister Trudeau meant about government controls of the economy and how they will affect Individual freedoms and as the cry for human rights resounds around the world, few people seem to pause these days to consider how their own actions Infringe the rights of their fellow man. In our sometimes frantic efforts to keep ahead, to cut corners, to look after ourselves, we too often forget that common courtesy, basic honesty and simple concern for others Is a right that Is fast disappearing'. Concern for others Is the oil that keeps our dally lives running smoother and the strident demands on us are less jarring If we can expect that our neighbor will respect our rights. But, unfortunately, more and more It Is everyone for himself. Politeness Is for squares. Littering the streets with garbage Is accepted. Cutting the traffic lights, pilfering from work, beating the government, departing the parking lot after denting a fender are examples of Indifference to our fellow man. Little things, you might say, when compared with violations of the rights of minorities, the death bombings in Ireland or the crises that shake the world. But It occurs to us that if each person put the extra few seconds and happily endured tiny inconveniences that go with caring for our neighbor that the larger demands made on our society could more easily be met. In the long run petty dishonesty, lack of Integrity, discourtesy and indifference come home to roost. For the very callousness we display towards the people with whom we have daily contact, Is all the more easily passed, on to us by unfeeling and Insensitive powers that control our lives. Like all good things courtesy can be contagious and rewarding. Way to go, Bill Do you recall how Bill Bennett, while still leader of the opposition, promised us that property and homes would be made more easily available to young British Columbians? How low-priced land would be made available through the municipalities? Let's analyze how much Premier Bill Bennett haa done to date to fulfill this promise. So far Social Credit has done nothing but raise taxes and reduce services. The Increase In sales tax, Income taxes and compulsory insurance premiums has only managed to drive the price of the average new home up with about $500. Perhaps not much, but It's a good beginning. How to construct a shed By JOHN SQUIRRELLY It occurred to me the other day as I was picking my way through the obstacle course in my basement, trying to get within at least four feet of my workbench, that we were in dire need of more storage space. The spectacle of four bicycles, a power mower, a collapsible rubber raft, a small plastic swimming pool, fifty cedar rails that 1 had intended to use for fencing four years ago, two coils, of garden hose, a treacherous assortment of shovels and rakes, and a roll of 75 feet of snow fence that was rusted beyond recall, made me determined to build a shed in the back yard to accommodate this collection of tools and trash and free my cellar for other uses. Like making wine. I hastily prepared a sketch and showed it to my wife. "How much is this going to cost?" she asked suspiciously. "I estimate about one hundred dollars," I said confidently. "Hummpf," she snorted. "The last time you made a bald guess like that on a bookcase for the kids' room, it came out to three times as much and the books kept sliding onto the floor because the shelves weren't nailed in right." "That was an oversight," I replied, "I'm actually very good. My great-grandfather was a carpenter, my grandfather was a carpenter and their blood is flowing in my veins." "And your father was an undertaker who couldn't figure out how to close the lid of a coffin without help. And his blood is flowing in your veins. The last time you tried to hammer a nail, you moaned for three weeks about your throbbing thumb." "This is just basic carpentry," I said, "there's really nothing to it." She sniffed, picked up the cheque book and left. When I finally got approval from the local lumber company to charge my purchases, after a credit interrogation that would have won enthusiastic respect from the Inquisition, I received six 4x4's and eight 2xl0's for $93.47. I began to suspect that the shed might go over the hundred dollar estimate. 1 quickly hammered the frame together in the middle of the yard. With the help of a few friends and a case of lager, we then moved it over to my lot line and aginst my neighbor's row of Chinese Elm. "Now, then," I said to my wife, "it doesn't look so bad, does it? All I have to do now is close it in with panelling and put in a door, and our storage problems are solved." She looked at it, sneered and stuffed the cheque book down the front of her blouse. After taking my fingerprints at the lumber company, I was allowed to charge ten 4x8 panels on my credit account. They cost $84. 1 squared off the uprights and started to nail on the panels until I discovered that one end was eight feet wide and the other nine feet. This meant that it would project over onto my neighbor's property through a space in the Chinese Elms. "What the heck," I said to my wife, "after all, we're friends and neighbors. I'm sure he won't mind if 1 use a few inches of his land." She replied that she was going to visit her mother for a few days. The next morning, I was awakened by the sound of a chain saw buzzing like an angry wasp in my back yard. I looked out the window just in time to see my friend and neighbor cutting off a corner of my rhomboid structure, the part that was sitting on his lot. I rushed out in my dressing gown. "What are you doing?" I demanded, aghast. "I'm getting this atrocity off my property," he cackled. "But you've completely destroyed one corner," 1 bawled. "What do I do with that gaping hole there?" "Use it for a door, jerk," he snarled, "or didn't you notice that you don't have one?" I surveyed the neatly smooth front of the shed that had absolutely no trace of an opening. My neighbor went on. "You've complained about my dog barking, you didn't like my patio parties, and now I'm getting my own back. 1 haven't enjoyed myself so much since you went on vacation." It was becoming obvious that my project was turning into another disaster. There was only one thing to do. I went back to the lumber company and, after promising the credit manager that I would sign a second mortgage contract/ they rented my a chain saw which I used to reduce my shed to kindling. Since it's very green wood and would smoke a lot once 1 made a bonfire of it, I'm just waiting ifhtil the wind Is blowing toward my friend and neighbor's property and he's having another one of those damned patio parties.

Student Tom Hynd, representing the Student Activities Council, said the "pubs" are held from 4 to 7 p.m. and raise money for. the student emergency loan fund and other projects. "We stage activities, like the recent Miss FVC contests, to avoid a 'beer parlour' atmosphere," he said. To date there have been no troubles with damage to college property, disorderly behaviour or inebriation, he said. The College's Dean of Student Services said that the experience of operating the pubs <as a business was, providing a "learning experience" for the students involved. Four pubs have been held at Chilliwack and three at Abbotsford, with an average attendance of between 80 and 100 at each. Hynd said a ciose watch is maintained to ensure that there are no underage patrons at the pubs: RCMP visit each location as well, he added. "It helps to create a sense of unity, it develops ideas for student activities, it's private, and it's a little cheaper," he told council. College students, faculty and staff are al|pwed to bring one guest each, he said. College council approved temporary continuation of the pubs, and authorized a "discotheque" dance at Chilliwack Friday, April 9. Horse show money, upped The PNE Board of Directors has approved an additional SiiOfl prize money for the annual Fair- time 4-H Show. The money is for a 4-H Horse Show, a new catcf gory which will start during PNE •76. The increase brings to $63,825 the amount the PNE will spend on its Fairtimc 4-H Show this year. At the same time as there is a controversy raging in Canada as to whether or' not our school systems are adequately teaching the three r's (readin', ritin' and rithmetic') and part of this dispute is spilling over into the press — perhaps it would be the time for the people in the media (through a self-analysis) to determine whether they are fully applying the five w's that are the basic training of any newsman, newswoman or newsperson. The five w's (in case you do not know) stand for who? - what? - when? - where? - and why? Sadly to say, all too often one or more of these crucial w's arc left out in news reports, thereby giving these a slightly or perhaps even blatant bias. The news media - with a few exceptions - is not supposed to be biased. It exists to inform • and enter tain as well, perhaps - but first and foremost to inform. When radio and t.v. forget about this responsibility it is excusable. After all, the electronics media is the enfant terrible of journalism. When the daily press docs it, it can be explained. The business is a hectic one. But if the weekly press falls short • why, then there's seldom any excuse. __ Hawaiian Holiday Waikiki Beach, March 15. 1976 By MARLENE BROWN WENMAN REPORT The Ministry of Urban Affairs recently released an interesting study entitled "Urban Indicators; Quality of Life Comparisons for Canadian Cities". Although no overall ranking is attempted, Canada's 22 Census Metropolitan Areas (CMA's) are ranked in regard to 32 areas of social, economic, and physical development. (A CMA is defined as the main labor market area' that includes and surrounds a continuous built- up area, where the latter has a population of 100,000 or more. The 22 CMA's in Canada range in population from 2,743,000 (Montreal) to 106,000 (Saint John, N.B.). These figures are taken from the 1971 Census, and show Vancouver in 3rd place, between Toronto and Ottawa, with 1,082,000 people). Although statistics are listed for all 22 Canadian metropolitan areas, it is perhaps more meaningful to compare Vancouver only with Montreal and Toronto, as these three cities alone share the advantages and disadvantages peculiar to very large and growing communities. Viewed in this way, Vancouver comes out well in terms of physical development, but lags behind in social and economic development. PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT According to the most recent statistics, the average cost of housing in Vancouver is $43,464. which makes it the 7th most expensive city in Canada in which to buy a house. This compares well, however, with Toronto's average of $62,254, which makes that city far and away the most expensive. A greater percentage of Van- couverites (59.1 percent) own Figures do not lie By BOB WENMAN, MP their own homes than is true for residents of either Toronto (52.1 per cent) or Montreal (35.8 per cent). Similarly, Vancouver boasts a lower percentage of apartments in relation to total housing units (but is plagued by the lowest apartment vacancy rate in the country - 0.1 per cent). In Other categories tested, Vancouver has the best air quality of the three major centres. It also has the highest rate of property loss to fire and traffic accidents, slightly ahead of Montreal and fully twice as high as Toronto. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT There are surprisingly few indicators in this section, but in terms of those listed Vancouver ranks poorly. Average income is only 5th in the country, after Ottawa - Hull, Windsor, Sudbury and Toronto, and our unemployment rate, at 7.1 per cent, is the second highest in the country - compared with Montreal at 6.5 per cent and Toronto at 5.3 per cent. SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT Fully half (16 out of 32) of the indicators used relate to social development, and in this area Vancouver does very poorly indeed. Some examples • ' - the average educational level attained by residents of Vancouver is the lowest in the country, "with 48.4 per cent of the population having leu than grade ten (Montreal leads with only 26 per cent at or below this level; Toronto stands at 41 per cent). - in terms of crime, Vancouver's rate of criminal code offences in relation to population is far higher than t!wt of either of the other majn cities; the number of juveniles charged is almost twice as high, and the extent to which crimes are resolved (28.9 per cent) is far blhlnd Toronto's rate of 42.2 per cent, although slightly better than Montreal's 26 per cent, - Vancouver's-illegitimacy rate of 89 per 1000 births is higher than Montreal's (79) or Toronto's (66). - voter turnout at municipal elections in Vancouver (36.4 per cent) is lowest of the big three. - in terms of cultural facilities (measured in square feet per 100 population) Toronto is far ahead Vancouver ranks eleventh at 19.9. • Vancouver and Toronto lead the country in number of ethnic groups with significant impact on the city, each with 6 • Montreal has 2. - another indication of the effect of migrations, both within Canada and from outside, is the fact that only 46 per cent of Van- couverites were born in B.C. - this is the 2nd lowest percentage in the country, far behind Montreal's 79.5 per cent (ie who were born in Quebec) - likewise,, 26.5 per cent of Vancouver residents were born outside Canada, the 3rd highest rate among Canadian CMA's (Toronto is highest at 34 per cent). The authors of this study emphasize the fact that these indices arc inconclusive. Many others could have been used, and some that were used suffer from different methods . of gathering statistics in various parts of the country. However, these indices do indicate in general terms how each Canadian city stacks up against the others in the areas of social, economic, and physical development. As such, they should be a valuable asset to those charged with the responsibility of planning the future development of our cities. Note - The above is simply a summary of some of the indices used.

Hawaii the land of the warm tropic sun Then why have I goose bumps and a sweater on chum! Aloha ha! They do not understand One of the worst poisoning disasters in history occurred over the last 20 years In Japan where hundreds of people died from what has come to be known as Minamata disease — the incurable mercury poisoning known by the name of the Industrial town where it was first Identified. Here In Canada, the Native people of two northwestern Ontario reserves and those along the edge of James Bay in Northeastern Quebec whose ancient fishing grounds have become polluted with mercury, could be facing a disaster of similar proportions. The disease Is grotesquely deforming, affecting the central nervous system and culminates In brain damage, paralysis and death. But after more than five years of extensive tests, both levels of government still insist, despite medical evidence to the contrary, that symptoms of poslonlng showing up in a number of individuals may be related to other illnesses and "more proof is needed." As far back as 1970, the Ontario government moved to protect Its tourist industry by advising sports-fishermen to "fish for fun only" and not to eat their contaminated catches. Yet the Indians of Grassy Narrows and White Dog reserves In the Konora area are still eating the fish from mercury polluted waters as the main source of their food. And it was In the same year that the province Issued control orders on 11 companies ordering them to stop dumping mercury waste Into the waterways. But mercury requires up to 100 years to be dissipated from polluted waters. And no control order was issued on mercury dispelled into the air, where quantities are still anyone's guess. The provincial government did promise alternative supplies of food by providing two large freezers and a small subsidy to truck In fish from unpolluted lakes. The federal department of Indian and Northern Affairs offered to move the people from their reserves to other areas to get them away from the polluted water. These attempts tb alleviate the situation indicates an utter lack of understanding. The Natives who live In these areas have an entire culture, a lifestyle, based on fishing In their lakes and streams. They feel lost even destroyed with It. Simplistic solutions only serve to heighten tensions. If the paper mills that spill their lethal poisons into the water and air refuse to accept their moral, If not legal, responsibility to clean up their mess and compensate the Indians, then the governments involved must act quickly without waiting for further studies. irreparlble damage may already have been done to residents of these reserves but continued Inaction or Inappropriate action will have the effect of a major human and environmental disaster. i^MMHM mmmmmm THE STAR, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 14, 1976 Don't miss this year's Bradner Flower Show Friday, Saturday and Sunday April 16, 17 and 18 from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily at the Bradner Hall, Bradner, B.C.

Phone 856-4151- 530-0271 By LUCILLE BANTA At the Shop at 27100 Fraser Highway we are happy to see those of our volunteers who have been on the sick list feeling better. It seems that they like us so well that they preferred to come to the Shop rather than stay at home all day while they were convalescing. Thanks folks, it is nice to know that the confusion around the shop which has been a headache to some of us does not discourage you. Those of you who used to drop in for a chat and a cup of coffee or to work on some of our many recycling projects may feel there is no place for you because of the crowded condition, but don't let that deter you from coming in, we like your company and we can always make a place for you to sit down even if we can't find the sewing machine. Don't give up, we are looking forward to having more space in the not too distant future where hopefully we will have ample space for all our present activities plus some that we have never had room for up to now. It has been brought to our attention that the volunteer transportation for those needing medical care has been affected by the government cut backs so we are working on an idea for supplying this need. There will be more on this after we have contacted the New Horizons and have had a Directors meeting to get approval. Which reminds me that our next meeting will be our annual meeting with an election of officers. We will also be looking for ir new Director to take the place of . Norma Nash who had to' resign because of other commitments, so if you would like to get in on the action from the ground level, now is your chance. Going to work in Bradner on these lovely sunny mornings is a real joy. This famous bulb centre! is a blaze of fields of golden daffodils. This weekend will be the highlight of the bulb industry in Bradner when the annual; Bradner Flower Show will attract people from far and wide to view, over 400 varieties of daffodils plus; many other spring flowers. It; would make a beautiful Easter outing for the whole family. Have a Happy Easter. ■ Jubilee community club elects new executive The ne# executive of the Jubilee Community Club are pictured above, in the back row, left to right: Ramond Campbell, President, Wayne Glibbery, Vice President; Bill Love, in charge of Bingo; Gordon Bowes, In charge of the sports program. In the front row left to right: Francis Evanoff, Newsletter, Judy Glibbery Entertainment; Nancy McRae, Secretary, Carol Evans, Entertainment; I- rene Smorenburg, Treasurer. The club has, during the Better roads necessary, says Alderman past year added to their hall taking advantage of the provincial Community Improvement program. They have conducted 8 successful dances throughout the last year and 13 bingo's, and are conducting a weekly sports program for the young people. The new executive is contemplating adding a monthly family 'open house' evening and guest speakers at their monthly meetings. A very busy little community they have probably won tame or notoriety for their very Imaginative floats at the yearly Bradner Victoria Day parade. The community also hold a yearly Hlll-bllly-day, usually In September. MURRAYVILLE — Langley district officials might as well go and have "a good drunk" as spend money on building inferior roads, a councilor said Monday morning. Aid. Dan Kitsul, a land developer, said that the way some of the Langley roads were being built, water inevitably got in under the surface and in the wintertime the frost would heave sections of the road, thereby destroying the driving surface. "Everybody around here is squawking about how we are over-building the roads," he said. "As far as I am concerned we can not overbuild." Fellow councilor Aid. Jock Lindsay the previous week proudly had stated in council that the district was "over-building" some of the local roads to the point where they would "probably outlast" some of the ancient Roman roads which are still in use. Kitsul said he could name examples of roads in Langley being constructed after work crews had dug out ditches and piled everything, ' "logs, topsoil and riffraff' on the roadbed which was then gravelled and paved over. Only in a few cases, he said, had these foundations — by some quirk — settled down to provide proper and stable bases for the roads. Kitsul said he was in favor of a program whereby the entire road bases should be tested by engineers before the municipality spent any money on hard-surfacing. Juvenile home needed, but somewhere else, please MATSQUI — Council here received a presentation by Mr. Robertson, crown prosecutor, ad- vocating a group home for juvenile offenders on 33991 McCrim- mon Drive. Robertson said that there are no facilities in the district for Matsqui's problem juveniles even though the need is there. The home, said Robertson, is zoned for such a use, and would house a maximum of twenty juveniles between the ages of 11 and 15, who would only be Matsqui residents, Robertson confirmed that there would not be nightly rock concerts or an increase in personal crimes, despite the fears of local residents. Council has received a petition from twenty residents of McCrimmon Drive opposing this establishment. Alderman "Spud" Murphy remarked that the opposition to the group home followed a familiar trend; namely that everyone a* greed with the need for such an establishment, provided that it was not located in their neighborhood. Council moved that the application and the petition be considered at a meeting with development officer Alex Sommerville.

THE STAR, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 14, 1976 Blazer Motors gives away convertible Berger, salesman lor Blazer Motors handing over the Bill ol Sale for $1.00 and 7 cents tax to Bob and his mother. •p*mr^ Bob looking over the 1966 yellow convertible on Blazer Motors lot It's not everyday these things happen, and when it happened to 16 year old Robert W. Probert he didn't quite believe it himself, at least not for a little while. Last Saturday afternoon he was using the Apostles horses getting around, and probably the thumb too, but as he came past Blazer Motors on Fraser Highway in Aldergrove there.was suddenly this yellow convertible that caught his eyes and painted right across the windshield was the word Free in huge letters. Oh, yah, sure. Bob thought, can't do me anything for asking, and if they are really giving that car away free, I'll take it. So, in he went and asked, and meeting him at the door was Berry Berger, sales manager of Blazer Motors. "Can we help you, son?" "Well yes," Bob said, "that yellow 1966 Pontiac convertible there with free on it, do you really mean that?" "Yes," was Berger's answer, "yours for the asking." Bob stared at him in disbelief - these things just don't happen, there's gotta be a catch. "No, no catch," said Berger, "you are the first one to come in and ask for it so it's yours." Berger told The Star that the car had been sitting there in the front for a good half hour, protruding from the other cars, and quite visible from the road. Several people had seen it and laughed, and most didn't even bother slowing down or stopping to investigate further until Bob came along. After him there were two more enquiries, but alas, too late, the car was Bob's. Being 16 years old Bob's mother had to come down and sign the consent, and when the necessary papers were filled and signed Berger told Bob to drive the car up to the pump at Pacific ®yfef*« Frank Lewis, owner ol Pacific 66. the owner, Frank Lewis would fill it up with gas free also. Bob still didn't quite believe the whole thing, he had a thoroughly dazed look on his face even when he and the Blazer Motors salesman drove the yellow convertible home to Bob's place on 256 Street.

Properly tuned engine a must for spring outing INSURANCE AND LICENCE The time for roadside picnics, sight-seeing adventures and Sunday drives isn't far off. No doubt, spring and summer auto outings have already been "planned by many drivers patiently awaiting the arrival of warm weather. That's all that's needed. Right? Wrong. What about the family car? It's certainly a vital ingredient for those balmy days ahead, and without it, plans may have to be cancelled says the B.C. Automobile Association. An engine needs care after long months of cold weather, snow and potholes. An engine in desperate need of a tune-up is no picnic. Besides, it's wasting expensive gasoline. To insure that outing plans aren't spoiled at the last minute, the BCAA urges motorists to have the following items checked to help promote trouble-free spring and summer driving: — have the engine tuned, including a check of points, plugs, condensor, timing, carburetor and ignition wires. —check battery for proper levels and charge. Have any accumulated corrosion cleaned from terminals. —drain and flush radiator, if necessary, replacing with proper coolant mixture. —change oil filter and oil, replacing with proper grade summer weight or a multi-grade oil. —remove snow tires. At the same time, have tires, which are being mounted, rotated, including spare, to promote tread life, —have wheels balanced and aligned. —examine front end, steering mechanism, shock absorbers, springs and transmission. —adjust brakes. Check drams and lining for excessive wear and check fluid in master brake cylinder. —check tension and condition of all belts. Check all hoses for leaks or cracks. •have the car completely lubricated (especially important to guard against rust-forming deposits collected during winter driving). •-""» *'-"'";"' ' —chick exhaust system for rust, cracks or leaks. —adjust headlight aim of necessary. See that headlights, brake lights, back-up lights and turn signals are operating properly. —check air filter and replace if necessary, —inspect wiper blades, replacing if necessary. —have air conditioning unit checked for proper operation. Finally, include a thorough wash and polish job to remove salt and mud accumulations. And don't neglect the interior. Round- out your spring cleaning chores with a vacuum and general cleanup of the interior. Not only will this help promote durable carpeting and upholstery, but it will make for more pleasant motoring. It's maple syrup season again in Eastern Canada.

Come and grow with us in this active community. ^^W Murray Hyldtoft IjJj 530-2630 534-7491 Block Bros. Realty 20260 FRASER HWY., LANGLEY ' The Pacific Notional Exhibition's Fairtime adult gate admission will be raised 25 cents to $1.75. The Exhibition's Board of Directors voted to take the action after receipt of the annual financial statements showed that the 1975 Fair lost $56,441, a turnaround of $332,454 from 1974, when the annual Fair made $276,013. "The PNE prides itself on providing Fair patrons with as many free attractions — and reasonably priced paid attractions — as possible," said Aid. Ed Sweeney, the PNE president, adding: "We wish to continue this policy, but at the same time we must try to ensure that the Fair at least breaks even." The president noted that the teen price of SI,00 and the children's price of 25 cents remain unchanged. The PNE also will • continue to stage two free admission days for children and goldcn- agers, and a free day for the handicapped. PNE general manager John Rennie noted that the PNE paid $229,547 for free attractions in 1975, an increase of $34,933 over the previous year. Free attractions included entertainment at three outdoor plazas: daily demolition derbies and logging shows, and free children's day shows. The Exhibition also paid $252,533 for its livestock and horse shows, $63,566 on its horticulture show, $65,063 on its 4-H shows and $27,000 on the Miss PNE Pageant. All are free attractions for the public. Aid. Sweeney added: "The PNE is a $9 million per year business of which the annual Fair is only one segment. "The PNE's year-round costs are going up dramatically — our year-round wage bill, for instance, went up $799,778 last year, an increase of 22.8 percent over 1974. "The Exhibition also must, moke a number of yearly capital expenditures to maintain the $30 million in Exhibition facilities that are used by some six million persons per year. "When all these things are taken into consideration, it becomes clear that it was necessary for us to raise Fairtime adult gate admissions by 25 cents." PNE is to properly' plan tor building replacement or expansion. The Committee will report back to Ihc Board regarding choice of firm and their terms of reference. The Board has authorized an expenditure of up to $10,000 for the study. PNE Drops Annual Dog Show The PNE Board has voted to discontinue the annual PNE Dog Show. The action was taken after directors were told that the January show has been a consistent monev loser. The show recorded a loss of $9,100 in 1975. Directors were told there are three other annual dog shows in Vancouver, and thus the loss of the PNE show will not preclude local or B.C. residents from showing their animals in Vancouver. PNE Seeks More Rent From Provincial Government The PNE will osk the provincial government to consider paying more than $20,000 in exhibit space rcnlal in the B.C. Pavilion. The government since 1954 has paid that amount for the display of government exhibits. Directors did not establish what an updated rental figure should be. The matter will be discussed with the government. The B.C. Pavilion showed a loss of $17,116 in 1975.

The report, if true, means that one of the scrappiest nations on earth has stepped into the nuclear age. It also means that nuclear weapons will almost certainly be used someday in the Middle East. In the United States there is renewed speculation that the Israelis deliberately sank a U.S. ship as a strategic maneuver in the Six Day War, And in Lebanon, the Moslem leftists are winning the civil war, increasing their control, and completing the encirclement of Israel by fanatical enemies. In the United Nations, anti • Israel sentiment continues to grow, nursed by the Arab oil cartel's billions. Israel, outnumbered at least 50 to 1 by her surrounding enemies, doesn't have a chance, even with nuclear weapons.

Navnit Shah, Public Relations chairman for the Chapter, told the Aldergrove Star and the Fort Ungley Star this week that there is now a waiting list of "Little Brothers", but not enough Big Brothers to devote time to a fatherless boy in need of a meaningful relationship with a man. Any man in the community who would like to offer the service of friendship to fatherless boys between the ages of 7 and 14 experiencing difficulties in their personal and social development and thus needing a stablizing and helpful influence in their formative years are invited to call Reg Henderson at 576 • 2510, Peter Neufeld at 576 • 2484, or Navnit Shah at 534 • 5268. After an application form has been filled in, a screening committee will determine whether or not a suitable Little Brother is available. The aim is to match Big Brothers and boys with similar interests. The local chapter was established about two years ago. Mr. Navnit Shah said and presently there are about 26 Big Brother-Little Brother' relationships. Being a Big Brother is a profound, challenging and satis-' factory experience. It offers unique opportunities for direct personal service. Even within the Chapter, there are many opportunities to share in and contribute to the Big Brother program, without being involved in the Big Brother - Little Brother relationship.

For those who would read "sermons in stones" and messages of religious significance nature, Church of St. Mary the Virgin in Metchosin surely bring the message of hope and resurrection with each recurring spring. The tiny church stands about 15 miles (25 kilometres) west of Victoria on the Metchosin Road, just short of the junction of William Head and Happy Valley Roads. The simple white and black frame building stands discreetly back from its neat, picket fence, sheltered by the natural Garry oaks and ornamented only by its black-framed stained glass Gothic windows. Ornamented only, that Is, until some instinct stirs the very clods of the churchyard, and they spring into glorious life in the form of thousands of tiny white "Easter lilies". Masses of the dainty flowers spread a white mantle among the headstones of the graves of pioneers who sleep in peace near the church they helped to build — and sweep in glorious profusion all around the south and west sides of the church. Appropriately, perhaps, for their association with Easter, the "lilies" are Interspersed with the purple of shooting stars. Strictly speaking, the "lilies" are not liliaceae, but dogtooth violets whose botanical name is church was have thus preserved and enhanced a natural floral heritage. Even when the women hold their annual Lily Luncheon on a variable date in April, no lilies are gathered, but simply admired and enjoyed In their natural outdoor setting. The lilies do not keep a calendar date with their admirers, but may turn up any time within a flowering period which has been known to start as early as mid- March and end in mid-May. However, these dates are in the nature of botanical oddities. According to the minister, the Rev. H. Sylvester, CD., the women are relatively safe to schedule their tribute to Jhe flowers for "around mid-April". Pride in the little church has gone hand in hand with respect for the natural beauty of its environment; and the parishioners have been, from the start, a most energetic "do-it-yourself group of people. They have built many of the interior furnishings with their own hands from carefully seasoned timber: admirers of craftsmanship will note the wooden pegs and other evidences of age and hand fashioning in pieces still in use, which include Hall in Bradner, was attended by many out - of - town visitors amongst whom were the uncle and aunt of the groom, Mr. and Mrs. Ernie Malarsky of Vegre- ville,' Alberta, accompanied by their family.

It is open to every producer shipping a minimum of 400 hogs to any market where grading is done by government inspectors. The by J. F. Camilchael, P. Ag., District Agriculturist top award goes to the producer having the highest percentage of his market hogs grading. 105 index or better. We must remember that a carcass scoring 105 index is worth 5 per cent more to the producer than one that Bradner Flower Show Friday.

April 17 by Matsqui Mayor Harry DeJong Entry 50* Tea 75' H50 Varieties of Daffodils on Display many other Spring Flowers Hours 10am to 8pm grades 100 index. Bidding prices at the sales yard arc always on the basis of 100 index carcasses, and quotations of prices' in news reports and on radio are always on that 100 index basis. Carcasses- that grade higher must be paid for at that higher rate. A 110 index carcass receives 10 per cent higher price than the one of 100 index. Compilation of the figures to determine the winners of the competition is done each year by the Livestock Branch of the B.C. Department of Agriculture. II is no easy task, but very worthwhile figures come out of the work that arc useful to the Department and lo the swine industry. George Cruickshank, Livestock Specialist at Abbotsford is in charge of this work. The Annual Awards Night of the B.C. Swine Producers was held at the Davy Crockett Conference Room in Abbotsford on March 19, with 85 producers and guests enjoying a banquet and social evening. Frank Clark, originator of the competition idea, and donor of the trophy for it, was present to announce the winners for 1975. Last year's winder, Gil Amundson of Aldergrove, came through again this year with a most remarkable 91.88 per cent of gradings being 105 index or higher. Ross Newman of Enderby who was fifth last year came in at second this year. Carl Jesiak of Langley's Caroli Farms came third again, while Perry Conlin of Dawson Creek dropped from second to fourth place. Mr. R. Bocvc of Sumas Prairie, Abbotsford captured fifth spot, removing R. & H. Farms of Aldergrove from the winners circle where they placed fourth last year. There were only 26 producers in the province that qualified with 400 or more hogs marketed and graded, but they combined to produce 41,646 hogs out of a total of 68,692 produced in B.C. by all producers. There was a total of 558 B.C. shippers.

DOG TALK By GAY JARVIS "My dog has fleas" Every now and then you'll hear a dog owner make the boast "i've never had a flea on my dog". If this was true the speaker would have the first 6 million dollar dog! A dog properly protected against fleas probably won't be bothered by Ihem but undoubtedly somewhere along the line more than one ilea' has jumped aboard and either died or staggered off immediately. Contrary to popular belief ... fleas don't live on a dog ... they visit a dog at mealtimes ... theirs! The rest of the time they spend in luxurious apartments within your furniture, under carpets, in cracks and crevices inside baseboards or on blades of grass. This makes it difficult to find them on the dog and if you do find them chances are your dog is really infested and the fleas are on several sittings for meals! More and more farmers are taking advantage of our Bulk Fertilizer Custom Spreading Program, which has been .•'' '■'•> expanded to include the entire Fraser Valley from ':■■:"'' Delta to Chilliwack. Five Wilmar spreaders will be .' '' operating this spring. These are loaded to your exact requirements at our plant, then a qualified applicator will do the spreading at a modest cost per acre. The Wilmar spreaders can be utilized for fertilizer application to many crops under varied soil conditions. For details on how you can save money by having Green Valley high analysis fertilizers applied to your fields, call in at our Surrey or Matsqui plants soon. GREEN VALLEY FERTILIZER & CHEMICAL CO.

Most people think they arc carrying on a great preventive flea program when they bath their dogs with a flea soap every three months or so or put a new flea collar on every spring. If you have a smooth (short) coated chihuahua a flea collar is probably quite effective. If you have a long coated St. Bernard the fleas can1 certainly dine forward or back of this collar in relative comfort and security. Supplementary efforts arc required along with the flea collar. Flease are not dcsircablc tenants for many reasons. Many dogs form an allergic reaction to the flea saliva which is deposited when the flea bites. This allergic reaction can escalate into many complicated skin problems. Fleas arc also intermediate hosts to the tapeworm. When a dog has a large infestation of tape his coat may become thin, his digestion disrupted, (often throws up small amounts), and apart from general loss of condition may even nave convulsions (or fits). Tape eggs arc hard to find and don't always show up in a single fecal examination by a Veterinarian as the eggs arc not excreted in every movement. Kennel and Hobby breeders arc more likely to see them as their dogs' fecal matter is usually restricted to an area they clean up regularly, whereas unfortunately too many pet owners let their dogs go wherever the spirit moves them and are rarely there to observe same. I If you arc anxious to rid your premises of fleas a real Spring cleaning is indicated. I would suggest you send the dog out to a professional groomcr for openers. While the dog is being groomed and dclouscd (!) thoroughly vacuum all areas particularly cracks in the floor, baseboards, all furniture and any place the dog has been. Wash or burn the current dog blanket or what have you and then spray the whole house with Raid or similar. Shut the house and leave for at least two hours before returning and opening windows. When the dog returns use a flea powder or spray on him and his sleeping area two to three times weekly. The reason for this is that Government regulations, have greatly lowered the potency of most insecticides so they must be used more often to retain effectiveness. Groom your dog regularly, all dogs benefit from daily brushing but the long-hatred ones should be combed through weekly, paying particular attention to places that matt • under the arms, around tail etc. It is important to get right down to the skin. Most people groom only the topi Please do not rash oat and bay tape medicine without consultation with a veterinarian. If yonr dog has symptoms similar to what 1 have described he could be suffering from something entirely different and worming a sick dog Is a good way to kill htm but there are br more humane methods. - :w5a™s5 x-xw-^^sr::.

From Japan, we have the very popular Kerume Azaleas in various shades of red, pink, and purple. We not only see them in various colors, but we can also get them in varieties that bloom in April on into May. Next, the popular Japanese Flowering Plum. These have red leaves, with dark reddish to black bark. They flower some seasons as early as March. They flower before the leaves become very large, so that the flowers are very showy, not hidden by the leaves, as some flowering trees. The most popular one is Prunus Blireana, the double flowering pink. Also, the Prunus Pisardi This recipe can be made the day before since it tastes even better after all the ingredients have blended. I to 1-1/2 lbs. stewing beef, diced into 1" cubes I tbsp. coarse salt 1 clove garlic 6 tbsps. oil (vegetable) 1 tbsp butter 1 tbsp flour I whole onion sliced thin 1 green onion chopped small 1 tbsp tomato paste 1 > 1/2 cups consomme or plain water .1/3 cup white wine (optional) one tsp each of rosemary, sage, and thyme 1 /4 cup chopped parsley (fresh or dried) Dash of pepper Sprinkling of paprika 1 Baylcaf In a heavy skillet, heat oil at medium to medium high temper ature; add butter and melt but do not burn it; add salt and mashed clove of garlic. Turn up heat to high and add the diced beef; sear until brown on all sides then immediately remove meat and set aside until later. Turn down heat to low. Add the sliced onions and heat until transparent then add the flour and mix well until onions are thoroughly coated. Put in the tomato paste and mix well, then add the water or consomme and white wine and stir until the paste and flour lose any lumpiness there may be. Now add the meat that was set aside, at the same time turning the element up to a high heat; immediately add the herbs and spice, with parsley and bayleaf. As soon as the liquid comes to a boil, turn heat down simmer and leave covered with a tight lid on pan, stew for at least one and a half hours. This stew is delicious when served over hot mashed potatoes. Serves four quite comfortably. info/Health Dr. Bob Young My husband recently saw the doctor because of abdominal pain, and was told that he had a stomach ulcer. My mother, who is elderly, is under treatment for an ulcer on her leg. Have they both got the same disease? Mrs. H.S. One of the very basic concepts of surgery taught to all medical students is the process of ulceration, and the associated understanding of what an ulcer actually is. Just as various diseases may have the same symptom (both a cold and hay fever may cause the eyes to run), many disease conditions may result in ulceration. In such cases the formation of one or more ulcers is part of the disease process. What constitutes an ulcer? In the first place, the lesion or defect must be on the surface of something, either the skin or an internal (mucous) membrane. The continuity of the surface must be lost before a true ulcer exists, and inflammation of the area and loss of tissue is usually considered to be part of the definition of an ulcer. In brief, an ulcer is a hole in a surface that has been caused by disease rather than injury. An injury may become an ulcer if it becomes infected and erodes. There are many types of ulcers - my dictionary needs two pages to list only the names of the various types. Common ones are peptic ulcers which occur in the stomach of duodenum, caused at least in part by stomach acid. Leg ulcers may be caused by faulty circulation or neglected varicose veins. Few areas of the body are immune. Canker sores in the mouth are ulcers, and so are bedsores, known medically as decubitus ulcers. My questioner's husband has a peptic ulcer, most of which occur in the duodenum, just below the stomach. Her mother has a varicose ulcer, due to pooling of vein blood and infection. She might, instead, have a trophic ulcer in the same area. These occur when the arteries become clogged and cannot deliver enough nourishment to the skin to keep it alive. As is the case with many medical terms, "ulcer" has been bandied about rather indiscriminately. When coupled with the proper descriptive adjective, however, the term is very meaningful to a doctor. Send your questions to Dr. Bob Young, c/o this newspaper. Otter 4-H horse Club ByANGIEROMFO An executive meeting was held Monday, April S at the home of Mrs. Ellen Peskett as she had a report on happenings at the recent meeting of the P.N.E. board which she attended in Vancouver, only two members from each 4-H group may represent their club, they are to be judged on 60 percent on riding ability and 40 percent on participation of club activities, members able to qualify will be chosen at a later date. Theory meeting for all units was held April 6 at Aldergrove junior secondary school, again the plans for the upcoming P.N.E. representation were discussed. It was also brought up that we are to paint a mural to be taken to the P.N.E. to illustrate the 4-H club, a theme has not been decided on as yet. The different events to be held on the playday at H.D.S. on April 25 were also discussed. Parents participation is asked for making jumps, cutting poles etc., also donations of nails, paint etc. were asked. A meeting is to be held at Tammy Preast's home on April 20 for anyone who wants additional information on the upcoming playday. On April 3 and 10 the club sold daffodils, a substantial amount was made. The meeting was adjourned at 8:30. little Britches Set LANGLEY — The dates for this year'* Little Britches Rodeo have been'announced by the Langley Riders Society. The rodeo will be held on Saturday and Sunday, June 26 and 27, corresponding with the Langley Days festivities. Many special events will be held in connection with the rodeo. Watch future editions of The Star for details, or phone 530- 4604 for information. which is pale pink, single flowering, that soon fades to white. Prunus Pisardi Nigra is a single deep pink, this one has the reddest leaves, with the blackest stems. Another thing I should mention about the Japanese Flowering Plum which gives it a favorable advantage over the other flowering deciduous trees, is the fact they show color early in the season, holding their leaves to the very last in the fall season. The next Japanese Flowering trees, are the flowering cherries. These are very prolific bloomers, with some hanging in clusters. They have flowers of white, pale pink, and deep pink, in single and double flowers. These also have varieties that bloom in March, April and May. The most popular is a double deep pink called Prunus Kwansan. Before we get to the shrubs, let us just mention a couple of popular, call them shrubby trees. One which nearly always blooms in March is Cornus Mass, which has a mass of yellow flowers over every branch, this is a member of the dogwood family. Another popular shrubby tree Is the Magnolia, with its tulip shaped blooms, and in an early Spring, can be seen to bloom in March. This popular shrubby tree if kept moist during the summer growing season, will also bloom again in late September. Since I have mentioned Cornus Mass, let's talk about this dogwood family. The smallest member is a small native plant called the bunch berry, found in our woods, growing to about four inches in height. Then we have the native dogwood, which grows to a height of 30 or 40 feet. The white bracts which come in groups of three to five, sometimes six, petals are very colorful. These are found on the edges of forest or bush areas. Another strain of Dogwood is Cornus Florida which comes in white, pink and red, with flowers growing in profusion. From the trees we have the dogwood shrubs, which have red, ■ yellow'or green bark, with heads of flat white or pale pink flowers. One variety has variegated green and silver leaves. Some call the Magnolia the tulip tree, but the true tulip tree is Leondendron Tulipfera, producing tulip shaped flowers of yellow and green, which are hidden by the large three-pointed leaves that look similar to a large maple leaf. This tree if grown in a dry area, during July and August, will turn its leaves into a brilliant orange in late October, on into November. A very beautiful tree, very rarely seen, is Oxydendrum, commonly called the Sorrell Tree or Sourwood. In the month of August, this tree has short curved stems with small white flowers resembling the Lily of the Valley flower. What makes this tree so beautiful is the way these blooms are displayed. They are produced in such a way as they grow on the outside of the foliage, thus the tree is framed by them, and in the fall the flowers turn into a hard seed pod, which stays white, the same size and shape of the flower. In late October the leaves turn brilliant scarlet, then the tree is framed with the white seed pods, giving it a fascinating beauty not found in other trees. This tree is also free of insects and diseases. We have only touched on a very small portion of the trees and shrubs that are seed in our area, but I will mention more in articles later in the season. 1 hope also to touch on the pruning and care of some of our flowering trees and shrubs. jBBBQBBBBBBHBBBBiatK^^ Horst Penzkoffer of FAST SAW & REPAIR SHOP Wishes euery°"e SPRING PUNTING IS NOW HERE HI!

ASHWIN Dr. LK. Dahl of New York writes on hypertension and salt intake. He reminds us of the large quantities of salt that we consume and of the vast cases of high blood pressure in North America. He tells us, too, that of studies made of many groups of primative people show that they do not suffer from high blood pressure. Studies showed that these people cat very little salt in their diets. Negroes living in West India cat copious amounts of salt and salted food and have high incidents of hypertension and blood pressure problems. In China the salt intake is very high and they suffer from the same problems also. If you eliminate salt entirely from your diet, via the salt shaker you would still have to change your food intake by eating low-sodium foods. To rid the body of any excess buildup of sodium the emphasis would be on high- potassium foods: vegetables, fruits, and seeds. Avoid coffee, alcohol, salt and spices especially black and white pepper, ginger, and nutmeg. The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition tells us that garlic is specific for high blood pressure. Buckwheat and garlic in Russian research have shown to be extremely beneficial. Eating small meals and do not overeat; as obesity is one of the main causes of high blood pressure. A rice-fruit diet has shown to be effective and exercise is imperative. Vitamin supplementation as suggested by Dr. Pavvo Airola are garlic capsules, bioflavonoids, V-c lecithin, b-complex, and v-e is also very important. If using v-e for the control of high blood pressure, you must start with small amounts. A variety of fruit and vegetable juices are also very important. High blood pressure is not a disease, but a body's defensive and corrective measure, initiated to cope with pathological conditions in various functions of the body, such as general toximia, impaired kidney function, glandular disturbances, defective calcium metabolism, degenerative changes in the arteries, overweight etc. so states Dr. Pavvo Airola in his book "How To Get Well". One of the earlier drugs, used to control high blood pressure was hcxamcthonium. It worksv but the toxic effects that accompany its use have cut its popularity considerably. Treatment with it can bring constipation, blurred vision, bowel obstruction etc. Hydrajizinc is a drug used for hypertension cases and side effects were dizziness, rapid heartbeat and headache. SPOTLIGHT ON THE ARTS What's going on at the Exhibition Centre hi Fort Langley? Until April 19th, an exhibit by Lawrence Lung-Wen Chang, Paintings & Calligraphy including Splendid Peonies in Chinese Version will bring a new medium for viewing. Mr. Chang had been teaching Chinese paintings and calligraphy in National Taiwan Academy of Arts and Chinese Culture College in Taipei, Taiwan, the Republic of China. Mr. Chang emphasizes that appreciation of beauty of nature is based on close observation and mingling yourself with the movements of nature such as a bird or a flower. When you paint on paper this genuine feeling will generate in your brush and make your painting alive. The Arts of Classical Chinese Calligraphy was selected as an entry of the Republic of China for Exhibit at the International Book Fair Brussels 1971. Admission is free. Hours 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily except Friday, ond Sunday 2-5 p.m. Following this exhibit from April 18 to 29th Watercolours, a travelling exhibition organized by the Extension Department of the Vancouver Art Gallery will be shown. The show consists of 23 watercolours from the Gallery's Permanent collection. It Is comprised of both recent and traditional works, a majority of Canadian artists. The dates of these water colours extend from 18th century sketch Dumbarton Town to recent works such as Vancouver Artist Ken Wollace's THE WIZARD OF ID by Bnuit pukar ud Johuar kart Prince Health Food Center Sevenoaks 859-7519 One alarming discovery was that hydralizine has been known to produce angine pectoris in some patients. Rauwolfia, the father of tranquilizers, is being used extensively in one form or another for relief of hypertension. Some side effects were drowsiness, fatigue, weight loss, anxiety and depression. Although there are other drugs being used for high blood pressure and hypertension today, we arc not totally aware of their side effects. Most drugs arc as dangerous as the disease and all drugs have side effects. Some drugs like thalidomide we don't find out about until It's too late, and we become society's guinea P'gs- m Cut flowers fresh from Langley Flower Shop 20502 Fraiir Hwy. loagliy, I.C.

The biggest and handsomest trout hatchery of British Columbia's Fish and Wildlife branch celebrates its tenth birthday this year. The Kootenay Trout Hatcher)-, located on the cast side of the Kootenay River about 32 miles (51 kilometres) east of Cranbrook is reached by a side road off Highway 3 at Wardner. The hatchery plays nursemaid to sonic three and a half million baby trout a year, entertains up to 18,000 human visitors annually, and provides research facilities for fisheries biologists to carry on a continuing program of fish culture improvement — all in a very handsome stone and cedar building designed lo harmonize with the Rocky Mountain backdrop and evergreen setting of the riverside site. The main business of a hatch- cry is, naturally, to raise fish. Half a dozen species of trout arc raised at Wardner, from the fertilized egg stage in which they arc collected to the fingcrling stage when they are ready to be planted in some of the 400 to 500 iakes stocked annually in British Columbia. Nearly a quarter of the space at the Kootenay Trout Hatchery is devoted to answering visitors' questions through displays. Walls of the main entrance foyer are devoted to illuminated fish identification displays and a location map that shows the habitat of various fish species and so answers the ever-recurring question? "Where do you catch them?" A small anteroom off the entrance foyer is dominated by a leaping, fibreglass rainbow trout which would dwarf the story of the most imaginative angler. Fully five feet (a metre and a half) in length, the trout statue is realistic in every detail — including its vital organs, which light up and are visible through the skin when the proper buttons are pushed. The visitor lo Ihc hatchery can also sec natural habitat display tanks, complete with live fish; a trout tank; and, in the main hatchery, 48 long troughs where thousands of trout fry are swimming, feeding and growing. For the sake of the fish, this rearing area is kept in subdued light. The public looks down on the rearing troughs from an elevated walkway, reads the story of the hatchery s work in a continuous band of displays lighted from within or behind, so that no brilliant illumination carries beyond the walkway. The incubator room, with its layers of fibreglass trays of eggs, is necessarily kept in total darkness, but a window display tells the story of this carefully controlled environment. Last interior display is a black and white graphic showing the various aquatic insects which comprise the trout's natural food. Outside the building are a series of rearing ponds where the trout spend three to eight months growing to a suitable size for transfer to lakes. Transplanting to the' eventual lake destination always takes place in spring or fall when water temperatures arc suitable; summer water heat could be deadly until fish learn to avoid the warm surface. Work at the Kootenay hatchery is a year-round, 24-hour-a-day operation; visiting hours are confined lo "normal business hours", seven days a week.

Many taxpayers filing a personal income lax return are usually aware that capital gains arc taxable; however, many do not consider the effect of all capital dis-positions during that year nor do they ensure obtaining Ihc maximum recovery from capital losses. One reason for not laking into account all dispositions of capital properly is that many individuals consider only slock market transactions lo give rise to capital gains or losses. Often ignored are such items as a sale of real estate (including a summer cottage) and dispositions of stamp and coin collections, works of art and even personal autumobites. It should be remembered, however, thai lo have an effeel on taxable income Ihe disposition must be an actual sale or a deemed disposition. Thus, the SI.000 book loss on the 2000 penny mining shares does not count for lax purposes until Ihc shares arc actually disposed of. In simple terms, the amount by which your proceeds from disposition exceeds the "adjusted cost base" of Ihc capital properly would be a gain. Where Ihc "adjusted cost base" is greater than proceeds there is a loss. The calculations to measure your gain or loss arc often nol that simple. The taxing of capital gains was introduced in Canada effective with capital dispositions after January I, 1972. Since dispositions prior to that dale were free of tax Ihc rules of calculation provide lhat Ihe "adjusted cost base" noted above need not necessarily be original cost. Where the capital property was acquired prior to January 1. 1972 it will be necessary lo calculate this "adjusted cost base". Re venue Canada. Taxation has provided several pamphlets to assist in making Ihc calculation and these arc available at the District Taxation Offices. Once the gain or loss has been calculated the rules for taxation of gains and utilization of losses arc as follows: 1. One half of your gains minus one half of your losses is included in taxable income. 2. If one half of Ihc losses exceeds one half of your gains Ihcn Ihc excess up to SI ,000 may be claimed against other sources of income for that year. 3. If Ihc excess loss noted in 2 is greater than Sl.000, up to an additional Sl.000 may be carried back lo Ihc previous year's income to clain a refund of taxes paid in that year. 4. Losses in excess of the amount claimable above many be carried forward indefinitely and used in full against future gains or up to Sl.000 per year against other sources of income. As with all rules, there arc some exceptions: • Losses from "listed personal properly" (such as stamps and coin collections and art) arc deductible only from gains from such properly. • Losses from personal property (such as automobiles) arc not deductible and gains arc taxable onlv if they exceed Sl.000. • Gains or losses on a "principal residence" arc not taken into account in the calculation of capital gains or losses. The preceding is only an overview of an area which has varying rules applying in varying ■ circumstances. Everyone who has a capital disposition should review the details to ensure it has been reported correctly. PENTA TMATID FENCE POSTS 2V. - 3"x7' pointed....95c each Bundle lots only.
