Tel dis- £ trict manager Frank Bogle was tot :* a while placed in Ihc 'hot seat' :|j when invited by the local chamber :•: of commerce to a dinner here last ;!; Wednesday night. Bogle was grilled by a number ij of the chamber members present. Larry Blackhall said he did not :j! "accept the rationale" of tele- :•:. phone subscription rates going up | along wllh the growth in Ihe |: number of subscribers within a ;:i: switch. Bogle explained that "the more J: you arc able to call — whether ':;: you want to call them or not." the J: morc the telephone company was $ entitled to charge its customers. •:■ He said this was justified by the ij'jfacl lhal as "equipment goes up Si-in multiples, so costs go up." While the building in Alders': grove is expected to serve sufficiently for 10 years, the equip- iji: ment will not. he said. This equip- ji-iment musi constantly be re- £ placed.-Bogle said. "is il fair to say that the :¥ equipment is outdated?" asked i::: Alan Major. No. said Bogie, that would not :>; be fair to say. The switch now has some elec- ;!;: ironies equipment, he said, and ¥: during the early 1980's it is :i;i planned to change completely vi into an electronic system. Horst Neumann asked if an H; extension of the 'free-calling' iijarca lo include Aldergrove would galso reach as far cast as Mt. :;■: Lehman Road. It would include every tele- :•:• phone subscriber within the 856- §• prefix. Bogle said. Every subscri- :;■ bcr between 244 Street and Mt. ':; Lehman Road. Why was 244 Street established !| as the western boundary for the :;:: exchange. Mayor Gcorgc Dricdi- xigcr asked. :| Because, said Bogle. 244 Street •Swas "back in the early days" ^established as "sort of the mid- £ point between the Aldergrove and j I Langley exchanges." It became I! extremely costly, he said, to lay :•:: cables past a 10-milc radius since £ Ihc company would then have to ■:i: switch from the normal 26-gaugc :£ to 19-gauge copper wire. Bogle said the growth from £ Aldergrove west had also been S traditionally greater than the !•:• growth from Langley cast. Driediger asked how B.C. Tel if would justify the cost for Alder- | grove subscribers of communica- i| ting wiih Vancouver. He, himself, ;>; had lo move his business "across f- the line" from the Aldergrove to •!' the Langley exchange, he said. ■:; Simply because of cost. $: Bogle said he realized this cost §j lo be a factor In the successful i* operation of a business. "But If 1 :i was to go Into business," he said,!;!; "I certainly wouldn't locate In | Aldergrove...I would probably 8 locate right In Vancouver." 8 Driediger said B.C. Tel in the £ past had promised to include i* Aldergrove in the metropolitan :¥ free calling area. "And then all of :¥ a sudden wc were left out like Si orphans." he said. is Bogle said no such promise had | ever been made. ;••: "Arc you keeping abreast of :•: growth?" Allan Achlcm asked :j Bogle.

He did not, however, have that kind of praising word for former Matsqui mayor Douglas Taylor who this year is seeking a return to council via one of the two aldermanic scats to be vacated. Taylor irritated Langley's mayor when he last year proposed, as another guest speaker of the local chamber, that Aldergrove break away from Langley — and Matsqui — and form a new municipality of its own. Taylor's town-planning concepts for urban areas and 'greenbclt villages' in the Matsqui- Abbotsford district also vexed Driediger. "He (Taylor) had some grandiose plans for Abbotsford and Aldergrove," Driediger said. them develop a commercial section along Fraser Highway just cast of Langley-Matsqui boundary, then they will have other thoughts coming. Mayor Gcorgc J Driediger told the chamber of : commerce here last week. Matsqui district council has for : some lime negotiated with the : Langley council for a joint use of ; sewer facilities in Aldergrove | which would allow 212 urban- i Mined acres just inside Matsqui to i develop. At times an agreement has i almost been reached, but then .; something else has come along to . snag it up. Following prolonged discus- ; sions between officials from the two neighboring districts, Lang- i Icy finally agreed after three i years to some sort of a joint : scheme. But then Langley learned that i Matsqui has plans for a commercial development encompassing 27 acres adjacent to the highway while they all the time thought NEW, NEW HORSE CLUB Attention all 9 - 19-year-olds. A very new club under the direction of Mr. and Mrs. Dan Ibsen of 1571 - 272nd Street, Aldergrove is starting. It is called the Star 4-H Horse Club. Since the membership is limited to IS persons, you arc urged lo join early. Call Mr. or Mrs. Ibsen at 856-4650. lhat only residential development would take place. And now the deal is off again. Mayor Harry DcJong's Mats- qui council is now talking about going it themselves, by develop- ing their own sewage disposal system and pipeline discharge via Ml. Lehman to the Abbotsford sewage disposal fallout at Matsqui Prairie. "There is no way we (Langley council) will ever service 27 acres of commercial development outside our boundaries," Driediger said. "There is no way wc can accept such proposal when wc have just approved projects like the new Aldergrove (shopping) centre. "We would cut the throats of Aldergrove businessmen. We'd be darn foolish if wc did." Bradner pub appfication tamed down MATSQUI - Members of the municipal development committee voted unanimously to reject an application by the owners of the Bradner General Store, Matthews, to establish a neighborhood public house on the store property. Matthews planned to tear down the present building and to build a combination general Store- neighborhood pub along with gasoline pump service. Councillors expressed concern over Ihc proximity of the property access with the railroad crossing, as a dangerous situation, and development officer Alex Sommerville said fire protection for 'No pub' page 2 E pluribus unum and all that MURRAYVILLE - "It's o bad scene," said the mayor. "I am a little bit concerned, because I don't know where to go for the answers." Mayor Gcorgc Driediger was commenting on news reports of last week that advisory planning commission chairman Bob Hubbard had walked out of his job in a huff. "It has put alt of council under a bad light." said Driediger. Quitting his job. Hubbard had sent a letter to Driediger explaining that he could no longer take the chaotic planning commission meetings, where, he said, attend* ing council members from the Aldergrove's Man of Yur. See page 3 the township staged what amounted to battle royals. Hubbard had not mentioned who was the disrupting force. But he did mention "the interference of certain members of council" and the "many instances of differences of opinions and political differences between aldermen carrying over to the APC and disrupting the meetings." The mayor's questions were quickly swept under the carpet by Aid. Bill Blair, who said that there "is a little bit of personalities involved." Since it was a personal (?) problem, said Blair, Ihc question should really be referred to a closed cabinet meeting. It was so decided. Hubbard, who actually did not walk out in a huff, but rather wearing a tweed sports jacket, called The Star last week after a front page article which explained 'Chairman quits — Aldermen disrupt planning meetings'. He gave his version of what had been going on at the planning meetings (which, incidentally, also arc closed to the press and public). "It is Kitsul. Kitsul. K 1 T S U Ll (Aid. Dan Kitsul)," he said. "And you can quote mc on that." Wc have heard about split personalities, but how one alderman — even if he is vociferous — can be referred to in plural and have differences of political opinion with himself, that, dear reader, wc will leave for you to sort out. 80 who' last month drew a crowd of 250 to a fiddling meet In Langley.

Local AIB protest Tailes By ROBERT CAMERON The strike called by Canada's unions on October 14 to protest the Anti-Inflation Board's wage and price controls brought many of B.C's biggest industries to a standstill. As expected, forestry and fishery workers were all off the job. Locally, however, the "day of protest" was not observed by all workers. Langley district school teachers were all on the job. In spile of the office secretaries and most of the bus drivers being out. The majority of the municipal hall's office staff and all the post office personnel showed up for work Thursday. As one staff member said, "Some people simply can not afford to lose a day's pay." At some local sites Thursday morning, harsh words were spoken and employees wishing to work were turned away and told to go home. A quick drive late Thursday afternoon turned up few picket lines in the area, the strikers evidently being content with a small poster showing a hand-held picket sign proclaiming "We are out to fight controls".

He was relaxed and the words came naturally, without effort and totally without malice towards people preceding him in office. Ninety-nine percent sincerity. But not without humor, no not at all. The mayor said he knew of three favorite expressions that never failed to titillate him: The first. 'I gave at the office.' The second. 'My cheque is in Ihe mail.' And the third and "most hilarious" being. 'I'm from the government and I'm here to help you.' Driediger further told the chamber members about 'government beureaucracy' and 'sweetheart deals' made between rival government bodies. Of government bureaucracy and its ever growing involvement in land zoning regulations, he had this to say: "You ask mc about government bureaucracy. Well. I'll tell you about government bureau- cracy..." He then proceeded to describe the modus operandi of the gigantic spidcrweb made up of councils and boards controlling the destiny of privately-owned land. When a re/oning application was made, he said, and presented tit a municipal planning department for scrutiny it was next placed on the agenda before the council. If council found the proposal worth while it would be forwarded to the Regional District Board (locally the Central Fraser Valley regional district's office in Alder- grovel for their input. After having passed the planners and having come before the board — which meets once a month — Ihc file would be passed on lo the Technical Planning Board. "And they meet," said Driediger. "whenever they feci like ll." Perhaps once a month, perhaps twice a year. "But what they say doesn't really matter." From there the neat, but by now somehow worn file passed on to the Review Board. It has as yet not reached its /enith (or nadir, depending on the readers point of view) and has still a long way to »«• This board, said Driediger. is made up of "a whole bunch of mayors scattered throughout the lower mainland from Hope to Delta...who also meet at their own will." It doesn't really matter what all these mayors say cither, he said, and in any case rarely do they know just whal they're talking about. Having passed through the hands of these wise and learned men the case finally begins its slow and gradual descent. From the Review Board it ■ passes once more to the Technical Planning Board, From the Technical Planning Board it goes lo lite Regional District Board. "And in the meantime our little planner. Janice Richmond, might have found a little loop-hole." In the meantime, said Driediger. a full year might well have passed by. "They (the bureaucrats) do not know what it is costing the developer, and neither do they' care." he said. "They all have little squlr- mlshcs in their minds. "That, my friends, is government bureaucracy." Asked by chamber member Larry Blackhall where the provincial Land Commission came into the picture, Driediger said: "Oh. I am not talking about the land commission. That is a story all lo itself." Driediger said he felt all these boards should be disbanded ud Ihc toning policies left up to the local municipal councils. "And if the public Is not satisfied with what they're doing." he said, "why, then they can kick their butts out," 111 THE STAR, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1976 AT DEADLINE- For God's sake, do not shake By RUDY LANGMANN Every year, about this time, elected officials as well as hopeful candidates for office start crying about the lack of communications between the public and themselves. "People do not take an interest in civic affairs," they moan. And it's true. Anybody can verify that statement by studying election returns from years gone by. .If, for some reason or other, there is an election 'issue* in any particular year, well, then upwards to 20 percent of the electorate might tear themselves away from 'Archie Bunker' and brave the Fraser Valley fall weather for a trip to the polls in their late Detroit-models. That is considered a very good year by people who believe in the democracy of voter turn-out. And the politicians and would- be politicians moan in sadness and talk about how nice it would be if people took a greater interest. They form or join civic electors movements to back their political aspirations, and formulate highly idealistic 'platforms' which are supposedly to serve as guidelines for themselves as candidates if elected to office. They talk about how they must meet and keep alive the created liaisons between officials and voters throughout the coming year. Communications are all* important. End of November comes, Fall passes into winter. Elected officials take their scats, and, somehow, communications are no longer all that important. As a matter of fact too much communication is no good at all.

They could, after all, be plunged back into the water themselves. Better sit down, and for God's sake, do not shake. They retreat into their 'ivory tower' of self-importance, self- glorification and 'cabinet meetings'. The public, who was so badly needed a short while ago, can be dismissed. As a matter of fact, the less John Q. Public knows and the less trouble he makes for a civic council, the better it is. Of course, we do live in a democracy and johnny Boy has the right (officially) to complain if he feels he's been done wrong. But it would be better if he stayed away. And so winter passes into spring, and spring passes into summer and summer into fall. And the show starts all over again. Is it any wonder that Mr. Public (unless he himself all of a sudden gets the crazy notion that he was born to enter politics) seems apathetic and only mildly interested in the fragments of squables which during the year leak out from the most holy of holies? #** The following is a little parable which will perhaps clarify an unanswered question for Aid. Jim Lee: Once upon a time, see, there was this architect-engineer who had studied under Frank Lloyd Wright and at the finest artistic and technical schools abroad; at the Sorbonnc as well as Midwestern Tech. This man was designing beautiful buildings and took a real pride in his work. His innovative designs were the pride of the country. Then one day appeared a small band of people who called themselves master-engineers. Their leader had for a short while worked for a man who built supermarkets across the continent. They looked at the towering masterpieces and said nothing. During the night they armed themselves with shovels and picks and went to "study" the foundation of one of the skyscrapers further. The next day they went around to the master-builder's friends and customers and told them — as well as anyone else who cared to listen — that his buildings were no good; as a matter of fact they were "constantly falling down." Next they proceeded to construct a chicken coop of their own. And they rejoiced in the intricate marvels of their own creation. Also, once upon a time, sec, there was this brilliant defence lawyer... ++* A friend of mine recently went to the doctor to find out what was the matter with him. The doctor gave him six months. Well, after the time limit was almost over my buddy went back and told the doctor he was unable to pay his bill. The doctor gave him another six months. Expected, but perhaps short-sighted? ALDERGROVE — President of the West Matsqui Ratepayers Association, Harold Carr was a special invited guest at the chamber of commerce dinner here last week when Langley mayor George Driediger spoke of his councils reluctance to cooperate with Matsqui on a joint sewer program. Interviewed by The Star after the meeting, Carr had this to say: "1 more or less expected what he (Driediger) had to say. But personally 1 think the latest development plan for the (212- acre) area prepared by Matsqui district is one of the finest plans 1 have overseen." Driediger said at the meeting that there was "no way" his council would provide the urban area in cast Aldergrove with sewers after he had learned that Matsqui planned to incorporate 27 acres of commercial development in the area. Carr said he would meet in the near future to discuss the matter further with Matsqui mayor Harry DeJong, and from there he would take Langley's response back to the membership of WMRA. About 56 local property owners belong to the association, he said. Matsqui council has discussed developing a system of sewer trunk lines to serve the area without Langley's assistance. Carr pointed out that personally he has not much to gain from the introduction of sewer services to the already urban-zoned 212- acrc block. "1 only own half an acre," he said, "and the sewers might enhance the value of my lot but * will also raise the taxes. "I am willing to accept that." Many of the east Aldergrove residents presently have serious trouble with their septic tanks. Carr also said he thought it short-sighted on the part of Langley district to take the attitude expressed by the mayor. If Matsqui develops a sewer system of its own to serve the area, with a trunk line stretching almost totally across the municipality to Matsqui Prairie, then it will not be just 27 acres adjacent to the present commercial core of Aldergrove that will be developed, he said. If this is the route Matsqui will be forced to take, then obviously the whole stretch along Fraser Highway, from Aldergrove proper, past Aberdeen to Mt. Lehman Road will explode into a development of service commercial and industrial, he said. 'Sidewalks ami everything' Be patient, says mayor, it'll come ALDERGROVE — Reconstruction of 272 Street (Jackman Road) will not come right away, but it will come, Mayor George Driediger told members of the chamber of commerce here last Wednesday night. Driediger said a delay was inevitable, "which, 1 am sure, is going to disappoint you all." But as the mayor and as a businessman, Driediger said, he had no choice. The services (sewer, water and other utility lines) would have to be buried first, he said. It would not make sense, for political expediency, to reconstruct the road now and then have to tear it all up again monlhs. "I will not pour taxpayers' money down the tube," he said. Driediger promised solemnly, however, that the reconstruction of the road would take place after services had been put in place. "You will get sidewalks and everything else." he promised, "Right up to the Navy Base." The mayor also thanked the very active local chamber for the "many constructive ideas" they had submitted to his council and expressed the hope that such suggestion would continue to flow. "In no way will we let you few short down." said chamber president Kay Collishaw. "Wc will let you know what the municipality requires." Candidates under joint sponsors LANGLEY — It was decided at two separate meetings of civic electors movements here last Thursday night that the two bodies, CBL and LVA will retain their individual identities by not merging together into one body as was originally announced. The two groups will, however. back the same slate in the 1976 You haven't won yet, Monique ALDERGROVE — "We are certainly not going to let the issue drop." local chamber of commerce president Ray Collishaw assured the members and guests at a dinner meeting here last Wednesday night. Secretary Walt Liber had just read a letter from Revenue Canada Minister Monique Begin saying that the federal government, because of current fiscal restraint policies could not extend the opening hours at the Alder- grovC'Lyndcn international border crossing. Opening hours at this .crossing arc from 8 a.m. till midnight seven days a week. The chamber has lobbied for around-the-clock service at the Canada customs service. Collishaw told the meeting that the extended hours at the crossing were imperative for the development of industrial sites close to Aldergrove. being the only port of entry in the Langley municipality. The closest 24-hour customs services arc at Pacific Highway in South Surrey and at Huntingdon south of Abbotsford. "Maybe we have to get a little tougher," said Collishaw. A member of the audience agreed heartily, saying that during recent business trips (0 the U.S. he found himself wailing for an hour at the Aldergrove customs both going south and on his return. Bill Tombrink said (hat upon complaining to customs officials he was told they were five-man understaffed. 'Fly me', soys Aid. Bill MURRAYVILLE - "And boy, did some of the aldermen snore." Langley mayor George Driediger found out after he shared a DRIVER CHARGED LANGLEY — A light pickup truck westbound on Glover Road was hit by a coal train at the Jardinc Crossing on Sunday, October 10 at about 3 a.m. The truck was completely demolished. Driver of the vehicle, Lome Franklin Clark. 52. of Rcgina. was not hurt. He was later charged by Langley RCMP with being in control of a motor vehicle while having an alcohol reading of over .08. The truck was hauled to the Livingstone Service car compound. *We' pay, 'they' benefit LANGLEY — The township pays for the running of the show and the city accrues the benefits, an alderman said Monday morning. "We accept all the expense involved with the running of the (municipal) airport," said Aid. Art Brooks. "And the city gets the value." It has been argued on and off by councilors in Murrayville that while the municipal ratepayers pay for the operations of the airport they arc in effect subsidizing a certain group of businessmen from the city of Langley. No pub at Bradner Continued from front page the proposed gas pumps was a problem as well. The present store has gas service. A letter from the Bradner community club requested that the application be turned down as the public house would "upset the rhythm" of the community spirit, did not fit in with the rural setting, would attract party crashers to club activities at the nearby community hall, and lastly, would be dangerous to pedestrians because of a lack of streetlights and sidewalks. Aid. Chris Lamb added that a recent rise of juvenile delinquency in that area would be affected by a pub. Sommerville said that Bradner Road was a major thoroughfare in the area, and provincial legislation determined that public houses be established only on secondary streets. Should voting be clone in secret? MURRAYVILLE - There were two basic lines of thought expressed when councilors met here Monday morning and got into a discussion of whether or not decisions should be made in front of delegates to council. Aid. Jock Lindsay said a decision made on the spur of the moment in front of a delegate amounted to "pressure". "1 will not vote in front of anybody," he said. The delegate should be thanked for his presentation and dismissed, and then council could discuss the matter in question, said Lindsay. "I, for my part, do not appreciate to be called on the phone on a Sunday during the World Scries to have my cars burned off because no decision was made," ANNOUNCEMENT Dr. D. Wray and Dr. B.

"Decisions can be made as soon as the doors close," said Lindsay. "There arc cases," said Aid. Bill Blair, "where council cannot 'sit on it' for a week." This could cost some people a lot of money, he said. "They can go outside and sit and wait," said Lindsay. "Wc don'l (should not — Ed. note) vote in front of anybody." "There are certain times when council's gotta get off their butts and make an instant-on-the-spot decision," said Driediger. "We are here to serve the people, not to make stumbling blocks for them," the mayor added. * "I don't know why the hell I'm being attacked," said Lindsay. "Whenever something controversial comes up," said Blair, "someone should move It Into (secret) debate." "Don't enshrine it, play it by car," advised municipal clerk Derek Doubleday. "I have no personal qualms of voting in front of people," said Driediger. "At last wc have an answer," said Lindsay. "You (fellow councilors) want to change the policy?" hotel suite with his underlings during this year's UBCM convention. In order to save the Langley taxpayers money the entire council delegation slept in one room, on couches and fold-out beds. Councilors were recalling the experience this Monday morning during a somewhat heated discussion concerning bills submitted to the expense account. Aid, Bill Blair questioned some vouchers which he said he found rather high. "Well, someone eats at McDonalds...others want a big breakfast," said Aid. Elf Nundal. Blair said it had always been council policy to determine before a councilor undertook a business trip just how much he could spend. If the alderman overspent on part of the trip, why then "he could bloody well walk there and back," said Blair. If not, "he could fly there." "If you want to cat like a king, or you want to cat like a beggar, it's really up to yourself," he said. Only so much money, and that was that. Aid. Jock Lindsay said that instead of staying at a hotel during the convention in Vancouver, he went back and forth to Langley every day. "That's where alt the extra mileage came in," said Lindsay. Don't believe the papers Now you see if, now you im't LANGLEY — Last week Bill Blair's daughter still believed in the printed word. This week she might not. When the Langley district alderman last week announced his — at least temporary — retirement from civic politics, his wife and daughter were delighted. They thought Bill Blair deserved the time off from the public limelight which he had granted himself when he last Tuesday afternoon stood up in front of council and press and officially announced his retirement plans. Since then, however, it appears that Mayor George Driediger and other unidentified people "put pressure on me, and against my better judgment I changed my mind." In other words, Bill Blair's retirement plans are off again. His name will once again appear on the ballots in the November 20, 1976 elections. Maybe. But then again, maybe not. Bill said Thursday night, only some 50 hours after the original announcement was made, that his wife had resigned herself to his change of heart but his daughter was not too happy. Welt, that's the way politics blow. But the next time you, dear reader, start wondering if you can "believe what it says in the papers", send a kindly thought to your harassed editor. He doesn't always know what to believe himself. aldermanic elections as "partners in common project." CBL (Committee for a Better Langley) and LVA (Langley Voters Association) will both support LVA-incumbents Bill Blair and Elford Nundal as welt as CBL-protegc Stan Fraser. CBL announced that they had intentions of running three candidates for the office of school trustee in Langley district as well. No candidates were picked yet but it was not indicated that LVA would take part in this program. Blair, a dairy farmer, is a 15-year veteran of district council. Nundal, a veterinarian, has served one term. Fraser is a plumbing and heating contractor living in the Willoughby area since I960. Candidate 'infiltrates' teacher stronghold LANGLEY — Peter Fassbendcr, who last year as a resident of Aldergrove ran for municipal council under the CBL banner, will this year be contesting one of the two vacant Langley city school board positions. Fassbendcr now lives in Langley. Attending a meeting of the CBL last week he said he had been "spying" at the recent nomination meeting of the new civic electors group. IDEAL. "Mark Rose (former NDP member of parliament and now a newspaper columnist) did 90 percent of the talking," Fassbendcr said. "The teachers present did the oilier 10 percent." IDEAL last Tuesday night nominated two Langley-Surrey teachers and a Fort Langley nurse as candidates in the November 20 Langley school board elections. "1 feel very strongly," said Fassbendcr, "that teachers should not be elected school trustees." Up for reelection to the board of school district no. 35 this year are Bill Richardson and Kay Armstrong from the township and Peter McNamara representing Langley city. ^\\t (Eorporation of % {Eofrms l]ip of flaitgleu ANNUAL STEWARDSHIP MEETING The Annual Stewardship Meeting will be held at the Langley Civic Centre, 20699 - 42nd Avenue, Langley, on Tuesday, November 2nd, 1976, commencing at 7:30 p.m. D.J.

In love with the sea since the age of 16 By IAN CAMERON ALDERGROVE - "That's really great." quipped George McAdam. "This is a leap year, so 1 actually get an extra day of being a decent citizen." Aldergrove's 'Mister Santa Claus' came here to live in 1948 following the tumultous war years. With wife Dorothy and baby son Dale, the McAdam family moved into an old house which had originally been built by pioneer Dick Jackman and then belonged to George McDonald, the post master. The house was located on a knoll, roughly where the Super Valu parking lot now is situated, and next to Henry Rcimcr's lumber yard (now Royal Bank site). It was a different pace in those days. 28 years ago. Gcorgc recalls "old Niels Larsen." Ihe neighbor across the street. "Every so often he would beckon to mc from, inside his fence on the opposite side of Jackman Road, and then I knew what was up. He had a new batch of beet wine ready and I was supposed to come over and sample il." Last Wednesday night George McAdam was honored by the Aldergrove and District Chamber of Commerce as the town's First Man of the Year. Not for having lived here since 1948 and not for having sampled Niels Larscn's best beet wine, but for having contributed much to the community during thost 28 years, mainly through his interest in young people. George is a captain in the Royal Canadian Navy Volunteer Reserve and the commanding officer of the Navy League's Aldergrove Navy Cadet Corps. In fact, assisted by CFS Aldergrove Lt. Cmd. Stcnning and a couple of local educators and citizens, George was instrumental in forming the corps in 1960. An ex-navy man. John Thompson; two Langley teachers, Dick Schell and Rick Buck, and Aldergrove barber Pat Rooncy were promo* ted to lieutenants in the corps. George McAdam was born in Aberdeen, Scotland. As an eight- year-old he came to Canada where his father got a job as a section foreman with the CPR. The family settled in Edmonton. Alberta, where George grew up. He quit school at an early age and was apprenticed for a while to a printer in that city, where it was his job to 'fire' the pots of hot metal for the three linotypes. The pay was poor — $9 a week — and young Gcorgc soon tired of the drudgery and went to work for a grocery food chain. Then came the war. And Gcorgc, who had unsuccessfully tried lo sign up with the Royal Canadian Navy since he had barely turned sixteen (How old arc you son? — Going on seventeen, sir), was finally enlisted in December of 1941. He was assigned to convoy duty on the Atlantic. Sailing with the HMC Vancouver, the HMC Dawson and the HMC Swift Current, all light cruisers, the convoys covered the triangle between Halifax, Londonderry on Northern Ireland, and Liverpool. They did not encounter any German u-boats nor airplanes, although they sometimes could watch bombers come in to be attacked by flack and fighter planes from a distance. During the latter part of the war the scene shifted to the Pacific where the Canadians on patrol did encounter Japanese submarines as well as the bombing of Dutch Harbor in the Aleutians. While on leave in 1942, Gcorgc married Dorothy. When the war with Japan was finally over in August, 1945, Gcorgc came back to Vancouver and was discharged and handed a ticket back to Edmonton. He returned to his old job. But he had seen Vancouver, and he liked it. In 1946, he returned. The young family settled in Langley. In 1948 they moved to Aldergrove and on March I the following year Gcorgc hired as a civilian driver - at the navy base on Jackman Road. Today he is still a bus it's your money... put it here!

Since I960 Gcorgc has taught about bO young boys a year the rudimentary skills of a seaman. Now, with women's liberation. the cadet corps is also open to girls and he has 14 young Wrencttcs under his command as well. The youngsters are all betweent the ages of 13 and 19. Next of command is 30-year-old Terry Metcalfe, who as a petty officer of the corps some years ago was named the 'Most Outstanding' cadet in Canada. George takes some pride in that. 'Must imagine," he says, "the most outstanding of 30,000 right across the country." Regularly George, or Terry, takes a crew of 25 local cadets and six petty officers on cruises on one of the 87-foot wooden-hull mine sweepers the Armed Forces have assigned to cadet duty. The ships are moored at Discovery near Stanley Park and the Aldergrove youngsters go sailing through the Strait of Georgia, sometimes to Nanaimo or Victoria and up some of the many inlets along the B.C. coast. They learn the duties of a seaman but also enjoy the freedom of the open sea and the camaraderie aboard. George has three framed a- wards he proudly displays in the living room of his small cottage nestled among the trees on Bellingham Highway. Otic is a 'Certificate of Service' from the federal government in recognition of 25 years of faithful serviec to the people of Canada. Second Is a 'Certificate of Appreciation' from the Abbotsford Kiwanis, one of the many groups he has 'served' as Santa Claus during Christmas parties over the years. And third, a 'Merit Award* from the Incentive Awards Board in Ottawa. This has as much to do with his service in the Navy League as it has to do with his never having had one sick-day leave on his civilian job at the base.

THE STAR. WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 20,1976 People losing confidence in B.Cpolitical processes British Columbians are losing confidence In political processes and there Is a growing distrust of elected officials, according to partial results of a survey released by University of Victoria socialogists Daniel Koenlg and Trevor Proverbs. The results of the latest survey in April reveal a continuing erosion of public confidence since 1972. Based upon responses by a representative sample of 905 British Columbians, the results show that only S6.4 percent believe that most elected officials try to live up to their campaign promises. In response to the same question in an October 1972 survey, 74 percent of the respondents believed most elected officials try to fulfill campaign promises. Only 64 percent of respondents agreed with the statement 'most public officials do not try to get away with something,' compared to 71 percent In 1972. More than 47 percent of respondents agreed with the statement 'I often feel that my vote does not make much difference,' whereas in 1972 less than 30 percent agreed with that statement. A loss of faith In politicians was evidenced In the response to the statement 'politicians do not care if people like me don't like the way that things are happening.' In the April survey 59.2 percent of respondents agreed with this statement while only 37.2 percent agreed In 1972. Slightly less than half the respondents believe "the way people vote is the main thing that decides how things are run in Canada.' Only 46.7 percent believe that 'government Is pretty much run for the benefit of all the people,' compared to 53.4 percent who believed that statement In 1972. Sixty-four percent of respondents feel the leaders of this country are controlled by special interest groups and only 38.7 percent believe the existing political parties are providing solutions for the country as well as possible. Bilingualism or separatism? Not long ago, Prime Minister Trudeau said that Canadians still have a deep and underlying mistrust of bilingualism. He was speaking during the recent air controllers and pilots illegal strike over the use of French in Quebec air space. The prime minister, we suggest, should be commended for the moderation of his language. That Issue — bilingualism — has brought to the surface more open ignorance and bigotry than anything In recent memory. English-speaking Canadians at best seem neutral to a policy — In fact a law under the Official Languages Act — that may very well be the cement that can keep this nation unified. Bilingualism in Canada does not mean that the residents of Come By Chance or Burnaby will have to speak French. Some will and do and their children are thankfully getting a chance to learn French at school so that some day, hopefully, most Canadians will be able to speak the two official languages of Canada. But bilingualism is not being forced down anyone's throat. All that is happening Is that both English and French- speaking Canadians are being put in the position of being able to deal with the lederal government — and some provincial governments — In the official language of their choice. This means that a considerable number of civil servants must learn a second language. Even that modest aim will take a number of years to achieve but It is a small price to pay for Canadian unity. No doubt some of the bilingualism programs in Canada have not worked or have been Implemented In a bungling bureaucratic fashion but that must not be the central issue. The Issue for English-speaking Canadians Is simple — do we support bilingualism as a national policy and are we prepared to support It as a way to broaden our nation's unity and to support those people in Quebec who are fighting separatism? It Is time for the many English-speaking Canadians who support unity to speak out on the Issue of bilingualism and not allow the bigots to monopolize air time and lellors-to-the- editor.

Postage paid In Aldergrove, B.C. Letters to the Editor Teachers plotting for control Letters to the Editor Minority users get preferential treatment Editor, The Star, Dear Sir. Following is a copy of a letter sent lo Langley district municipality: "This letter is written in protest against a by-law which I think is both unreasonable and virtually unenforceable. Having read in the Aldergrove Star (September 22,1976) that council passed a by-law concerning horseback riding in South Otter park, I would ask that you please consider my comments, as I feel sure that this letter expresses the sentiments of a great many South Otter park users. "1 apologize for being unable to attend Monday council meetings in person, due to another commitment; or 1 would have heard the previous readings of the by-law when il was proposed rather than now, when il is passed. This is regrettable, because both points of view on the issue should have been heard. "Before passing by-laws regarding recreational land use. surely surveys should be conducted regarding the most frequent use to which a park is put, and I don't believe this was done, nor were the ramifications considered fairly. As a frequent visitor to the park, 1 would have liked to contribute to the information in such a survey. "Certainly horses and riders do not belong in a playground area, but in South Otter park there is no "playground" area as such. There is. however, a picnic area, and horses don't belong there cither. Apparently Mrs. Muriel Charlton, a good neighbor of mine, was harrasscd by horseback riders on June 6 while conducting a Sunday school picnic there, and 1 wish the police had been called immediately to settle the issue. I doubt that Ihe riders would have challenged the police. The cussedness of things in general There are sum people wich jest aren't salisfidc with the way things arc. Seems like Ihey jest can't accept the cussedness of things in general, becus Ihc way I sees It. the Good Lord put sum things in jest so wc wud know it end be a helluva lot worse, like piles wot itch an bog spavins an the wile's mother. There ain't much you can do about them except cuss, wich is why the wife ses 1 shud lead a real placid life un account of my eusscn shud handle things purty gud. Well. sir. these folks has ben wrilin' the Edilor an sayin' I don'l spell loo gud an they figgcr this aren't a gud example fcr the kids. wm are Itavin' enuf trubble as it is witli words wich have more than five letters. On t'uther hand, judgin' frum wot you hear nowadays, they is makin' up fcr it with the four-letter ones. Anyways, the wife ses them people wot arc complainln' about my langwidgc is lucky they didn't hear mc wen I skinnt a knuckle I'tilhcrday wen the wrench sllppt wile I wus under the old car. She ses with wot I pick up frum the kids today to add lo wot I got frum my Granddad, by the lime I reach a hunncrt wc shudn't have a neighbor within four blocks. Well. sir. one thought leads to another, so to speak. I gol to thinkin' about the old folks, who got a purse of gold wen they hit llieir diamond anniversary back in Peterhead. So I went to my littel room in Ihc basemint an I took down sum hooks an wot I cum up with is this: WI' lightsome heart I pu'd a rose, Fit' sweet upon its thorny tree; An my fausc luver slaw my rose, But Ah! he left the thorn wt' mc. a.a An the way I figgcr it, if it wus gud enuf fcr Robby Burns. It's gud enuf fcr mc. While most of our local riders arc good people, there arc no doubt a few inconsiderate ones, and such must have been the nature of the persons interfering with the picnic. Every sport has a few- "bad actors", but why must the rest of us find our enjoyment curtailed because of them? "Council should be aware that recreation on horseback is very much a part of the scene of life in Langley involving thousands of horses and hundreds of people, a fact which can hardly be ignored and certainly should not be damned. "Consider the use of this park for a moment. There arc at least a hundred people with horses or ponies who frequent the park on a regular basis. I personally ride over 200 days in every year, and on my way to and from Ihc arena where 1 train my horses, i pass through the park. In the last year 1 have seldom encountered another person as I passed through. This beautiful little park is the most pleasant interlude in my day. In order to "pass through" Ihc park 1 must enter via the main road, turn south on a grass path west of the picnic area into the creek and proceed to the southeast gate, and il is a lovely experience. Now a sign forbids mc access to the road and path to the creek. This is the way most riders pass, and il is the logical way for the horse traffic to move. Needless to say. since I bother nobody. I will continue to pass this way unless a policeman stands in my way, and that is certainly a useless waste of his time and taxpayers' money. "Continuing the land use comment. I realize that Girl Guides use Ihc park, bul I venture to guess that at most it is 14 days a year. Sunday schools use it for picnics, but how often — a few times a year at most? Weed-end campers use it, and I guess it to be aboul 25 days a year. Pony Clubbers arc young people loo and Ihey musi use it 350 days a year!!! Furthermore, there is so much interest in use of the park by riders that one group'of them presented o formal proposal to the parks and recreation commission in 1975 for the park's development for equestrian use. What happened to that proposal? Why has it not been given equal consideration with proposals made by camping grounds? Has any other equestrian group indicated interest in the park? I think so. Why have they been ignored? "As to the claim that once horses arc allowed in the area, it becomes open to motorcyclists, lhat Is groundless. For one thing, horses ARE in the area, but the main reason is that the age group involved is not in any way similar. Riders arc mostly children, a few adults, and some tecn-aged girls. Boys arc seen Infrequently. On the other hand, motorcyclists arc older tecn-aged and young adult males, whose nature is usually very different from the horsey sel. These "cyclists" seem to be feared by everyone in the community, hut thev are not akin to the horseback riders. Furthermore, with the recently constructed fence to the south of the park and Ihc 8:00 p.m. park closure, the problem of cars being wildly driven on the soccer field (which is never used for soccer, by the way) and destroying its surface, as well as the noisy drinking parties has been, for the most part, controlled. "In short, a lot of energy and money is being expended by the council to keep out of the park the very people who use it most, to the satisfaction of minority users. Horses should be confined to the park roadways, and a small roadway should be constructed to allow them to by-pass the camping and picnic area. That and tiic present enforcement is all that is necessary to maintain happy use of Ihe park. There is no need for a by-law thai invites lawbrcaking. In the main, the horseback riders would co-operate, and the few who don't can be disciplined by the police as best they arc able. Certainly the harrassment of Mrs. Charlton's picnic was one such case: bul that incident should not be Ihc cause of restricting my right to quiet week-day mornings on the park paths, with my horse, not in the picnic area! "The by-law as it exists requires rescinding and revising, and I sincerely request that you do just that." Yours very truly. (Mrs.) Jacqueline C. Oldham 247.13 -10 Avenue. Aldergrove Editor. The Star, Dear Sir, Mike Zlolnik. director of Professional development for the British Columbia Teachers Federation slated that "the essence of professionalism is control over one's working destiny. Teachers become more professional by exercising greater control over teaching: over the goals of the school system; the conditions under which the job is done: the curriculum and methodology; and the social, political, economic milieu that shapes students." (B.C.T.F. Newsletter. June 10. 1976.) In my opinion the teacher- dominated Independent Electors Association of Langley (IDEAL) is the implementation of this philosophy of teacher controlled schools. Statements made by Dave McLean, president of the Langley Teachers Association while in attendance at a B.C.T.F. sponsored meeting called to discuss "how to recognize when value school people arc moving in to a school and what can be done to stop them" supports my contention. 1 quote the B.C.T.F. Newsletter of September 30. 1976: "Teachers in his own district, said McLean, have initiated a new civic movement. In June. 25 teachers and 30 members of the public held a planning meeting hoping to run a full slate of candidates for the school board elections." On October 12 in Ihe Langley civic centre 50 people formed a new voters' association (IDEAL) and elected a slate of officers which included: President Ken Novakowski (Langley high school teacher)! Vice-president Eileen Bowcott (wife of Langley director of adult education); Secretary Mike Bickcrton (Langley elementary school teacher); Ways and means. Dennis Rankin (an assistant director of professional development for the B.C.T.F.); Candidate for school board, Dennis Crane (teacher); Candidate for school board, Gerry Powlik (vice principal of a community school in Surrey). 1 hope Langley voters will consider these facts when voting on November 19. yours truly. John Cummins 5401.207 Street. Langley ...would like to set the record straight Too conveniently co-incidental Editor. The Star, Dear Sir, It is blatantly obvious that the recent dismissal of the land com- misioncrs is to pave the way for development of farmland. The sequence of events is just too conveniently co-incidental. Jim Nielson, cnvironmcnlal minister, tours local farmland, describes Chilliwack council's plan as "excellent" (even though it was twice turned down by the aforementioned land commissioners). There is a great furore over "investment money going south" in the press and then — presto — a whole new crop of agricultural land commissioners (handpicked and ready for market) arrives! Aside from destroying farmland whose value is too little understood, politically speaking, Ihis action has all the subtlety of a knockout punch! The electorate has been misled. Wc don't have a bunch of "new" style politicians in office, because the same old underestimation of people's intelligence has emerged (again). Pam Grover. 1785 Mt. Lehman Road, Abbotsford. You're welcome, Mr. VanderZalm Editor, The Star, Dear Sir, Our present government is at it again. Lwking for scapegoats. Setting one group against another. Anything to convince the electorate that if things aren't going quite the way they were planned, it certainly isn't the Socrcd's fault. William VanderZalm. the "I'd rather be a redneck than a yellow- belly" — minister of human resources, blames the poor people and senior citizens for many of the difficulties in his department. The poor people arc lazy, you see, and they should be out finding jobs, even though the unemployment rate in B.C. remains inordinately high as a result of the Socred "rob the people and stuff the treasury" — theory of economics. There aren't enough jobs to go around, but the poor people better find them. So upset is Mr. VanderZalm that he has hired a force of quasi- policemen to track down the dastardly good-for-nothings who arc "defrauding" us. Wc believe people arc basically honest, but we wonder how people will react after a few visits from the Socred 'Gestapo' which functions independently of any law enforcement agency, and is Immune from charges such as trespass. If someone is breaking the law it always used to be a police matter, and if there are not enough policemen to handle it then hire more police officers. The establishment of a private Socred police force is not acceptable. Mr. VanderZalm is also looking at stricter regulations for the Pharmacarc program established by the former government to provide prescription drugs to senior citizens. Some sneaky old folks are abusing the program, he says, by forcing their doctors to prescribe "vitamins and laxatives". Wc are (almost) certain that Mr. VanderZalm didn't really mean that, and that he will reconsider by giving the matter a sober, second thought. It was probably just something that came to mind at the spur of the moment when he spotted one of the radio microphones that he finds so irresistible. Wc believe and we're (almost) sure Mr. VanderZalm will agree that any individual who needs a laxative should not be denied. On sheer humanitarian grounds. We believe such medication should even be provided to Mr. VanderZalm if, as seems likely, he should ever require it. Pat Brady Aldergrove Editor. The Star. Dear Sir, I read with somewhat more than personal amusement Mark Roses column in this weeks paper. Not only docs Mr. Rose misunderstand Ihe facts but he also distorts the few he has. 1 would not be so prcsumpiious as to suggest that he uses his column for political reasons as he docs not hide the fact himself. However because I was one of the original people approached by the CBL (citizens for a Better Lang- Icy) at its formation, I would like to set the record straight on a few key issues. Firstly. Mr. Rose was correct in stating that he attended a small meeting in the early stages of the CBL. He is also correct in stating that the group was formed by people who had and I'm sure still have a genuine interest in their community and people, and a sincere willingness to put in hard and consistent efforts to see it improve. However past this point Mr. Rose begins to sway from the facts. He states that at the meeting in question 1 announced my intention to run for Mayor of the Township. The fact of the matter was that I had been approached and although I was willing to consider it if I felt I had the ability and the support...no firm decision had been made. I think the mere fact that I did not run for Mayor and in fact that the CBL did not run a Mayor candidate last year speaks for itself. With respect to Mr. Roses comment that his membership Letters welcome We encourage and welcome Utteri-to-the- EdKer mi community hum hr readers' opinion. Wereoervelkerigbttoedlt Men to maintain rtu- dardi of brevity, good laito, aid legality, regardless ol political content. Von may ne a •am-de-flame, M aim accompanied by yonr ■arne, iddreii, aid telephone number, unsigned Mm wfll not be would have been accepted that evening he is way out in left field...no pun intended. Front ils inception, the CBL made it quite clear that wc were not nor had any intention to become a political or politically backed organization, it was a very strong belief on our part that this would he the wrong move within local government if this was to happen. It was also for this reason thai I told Mr. Rose that I would not feci it in the best interests of the CBL if someone of his strong political lies and background were to become a member. In addition because my personal ideology differed from his I would not remain a member if he were to become one. Al this point Mr. Rose left never lo return. Mr. Roses comment with respect to Ray Collishaw and Royal Bank managers was in my opinion totally uncalled for. If in fact whal he says is true that people such as Ray and his peers are found to be involved with Right Wing groups out of a sincere interest and concern, then behind whal groups do you find defeated NDP Mp's and MLA's? And for what reasons? Although it may not be convenient for Mr. Rose at this point I would like to suggest that he check his facts with reference to the recent developments between the LVA and CBL. I am noi in a position to champion either cause however, I do believe I know the process that the CBL chooses its candidates and on what philosophy they operate. This philosophy is one of running those people that have a genuine interest and capability to contribute something worthwhile to the community.

West Coast Fiddlers monthly club night Wednesday. October 27 at 7:30 p.m. at the civic centre in south Langley. An invitation is extended by the club to all those who play the fiddle (not necessarily second- fiddle) or accompany a true 'oldc- tymc' fiddler on another instrument, or perhaps just enjoy the sound, to come and enjoy an evening of toe-tapping, boot- stomping entertainment. A few minutes during the jamboree will be dedicated to explaining the goals of the nonprofit association, Ihc chief one being, of course, to encourage old-time fiddling in young as well as old. Membership in the club will also be available to those wishing to join and support the Fiddlers club, old-time fiddling and the regular jamborees. The last jamboree held about a month ago drew quite a number of very good fiddle players between Ihe ages of eight and 80, and a crowd of about 250 people turned out to listen. The evening was definitely considered a success by those attending. There were tlie usual dance numbers, and two sets of square dances were followed by a tasty lunch and drinks. It will be worth your while to come out to the jamboree next Wednesday, visit with friends, and play or just simply enjoy the music. II you then decide to support tlie group, that will be up to you. There will be no admission charge. FOUR CANDIDATES NAMED More will be found IDEAL promises LANGLEY — The new civic conic up with at least $20 voters movement here, IDEAL, donations. will field at least four candidates in the November 30 elections for city and district councils and the school board. At least four, and perhaps more. The Independent Electors Association of Langley had hoped for a bigger slate to come forward at the October 12 nominating meeting — bul the quartet of political hopefuls were ull who announced their desire to run in the upcoming election campaign. Three of Ihc candidates have their eyes on the school board: Loltc Elias, a Fort Langley housewife and nurse: Gerry' Powlik. a vice-principal of a Surrey community school, and Allan Crane, a teacher who is presently on a sabbatical to write a book. The only candidate interested in a council scat was Jessie Edwards, a Fort Langley resident, radio reporter and news columnist. The meeting was attended by some 40 people. It was decided to raise funds for the campaign through a raffle and by canvassing for donations. Executives of the new movement were also impowcrcd to seek and endorse additional candidates, who will be asked to endorse a civic platform of 32 points before'being considered for sponsorship by the group. Three of the candidates have previous experience in seeking public office. Edwards ran for district council four years ago but was defeated by 34 votes, Elias and Powlik have both run previously for school board. For Crane it is a new experience. Ken Novakowski. president of IDEAL, said Ihc executive would put their efforts towards coming up with additional candidates, saying: "It is conceivable that wc will find them and may well contest additional scats." Former NDP member of Parliament Mark Rose, one of the directors of the group, stressed in his speech that it was very "essential" for IDEAL to mount a first-class campaign. " Wc can't expect big donations from the Fraser Highway businessmen and the land developers," said Rose, "so wc need a lot of donations from citizens like yourselves, ll is an expensive business financing a campaign and. therefore, wc must do everything wc can." Rose said every member of IDEAL would be expected to "I think, however, that if we. put on a big campaign, if wc show the community that wc really mean business, wc will have a lot of people willing to run for IDEAL in future elections."

October 14, the teachers association presented a report on staffing and budgeting needs for school district #34. The Abbotsford District Teachers Association has identified two major priorities for action in the 1977-78 school year. These are: 1. Adoption of basic staffing formula for both elementary and secondary schools. 2. Aid for specific "emergency aid" schools in our district. It is heartening to see that since September 30. 1975, the pupil- teacher ratio in 23 of 31 elementary schools has decreased. Loser than anticipated elementary enrolment in September this year and additions to staff during #197t> have been responsible for decreasing the P-T ratio in the 23 elementary schools. However, even with the additional staff. Abbotsford district elementary schools are-still 51 teachers short of the B.C.T.F. basic staffing criteria. The five local secondary schools appear to he in a better position when P-T ratio and staffing figures arc compared. Even so, the September ratio has risen significantly from the 1975 ratio at three of the five secondary schools. Abbotsford secondary schools arc 7.7 teachers short of B.C.T.F. staffing formula. How Abbotsford ranked on the provincial profile in 1975: tt\. P-T ratio for the whole district: 19.77 — Rank in B.C. 66'75. #2. Average class size (grades 1-7): 26.2 —Rankin B.C. 55/75. #3. Average class size (grades 8-12): 24.1 — Rank in B.C. 49/75. #4. Average kindergarten class si/e: 22.1 — Rankin B.C. 64/75. ff5. Average primarv class size: 24.9 — Rank in B.C. 60/75. Percentage of Primary classes over 25: 43.9% — Rank in B.C. 56/75. 6. There were 69 violations of 1975-76 B.C.T.F. elementary class size criteria. Violations as a percentage of the number of elementary classes: 31.4% 7. Teacher salary costs per pupil: $962.63 — Rank in B.C. 68'75. 8. Operating cost per pupil: SI.409 — Rank in B.C. 62/75. 9. Instructional materials and supplies per pupil: $52.70 — Rank in B.C. 39/75. The following schools have a high P-T ratio and violations of B.C.T.F. class size policy: Aberdeen. Bakerview. Dunach, ■ Matsqui. Ross, Simpson and Upper Sumas. As well there was no teacher hired in Matsqui for September 197b to teach 38 grade six students the required* French program. Emergency aid requests were made by the learning conditions committee to the board on Thursday, September 29, on behalf of the above schools. Thus far there have been no indications of tbrecoming emergency aid. The committee has the following recommendations for the board. 1. A. That the basic formula for staffing elementary schools be. (a) for the first 90 students, I teacher for each 15 students or fraction thereof, (b) for each 22 students or fraction above 90. 1 additional teacher and that this be phased in over a three-year period at the following rate. 51 teachers over three years, equalling 17 new teacher per year. With increases in projected enrolments the following additions are necessary: September, 1977. 66 extra students require three teachers 17+3 = 20 September. 1978. 107 extra students require 4.86 teachers 17+4.86 = 21.86. September. 1979, 219 extra students require 9.95 teachers, 17+9.95=26.95. Elementary teachers needed over next three years — 68.81. 2. A. That five full time equivalent teachers be hired to remedy the poor learning situations at the seven "emergency aid" schools. B.That those five F.T.E. teachers be hired effective no later than January I. 1977, in the following manner: Aberdeen — 1 primary teacher. Bakerview — .5 kindergarten teacher. Dunach — I teacher with clementury learning assistance training. Matsqui — .5 intermediate teacher qualified to teach grade 6 French. Russ — .5 Primary teacher. Simpson — .5 Primary teacher. Upper Sumas — .5 learning assistance teacher. Also. .5 native indian children special class teacher. 5.0 F.T.E. teachers needed. As a result of implcmentary recommendations 1 and 2, the teachers believe a number of benefits will flow to the children, teachers, and the schools of the district. First, increased learning assistance time will be provided for those students who are now receiving only minimum remedial instructions. Second, the additional pressures on elementary curiculum can be dealt with more effectively. Teaching music, French. P.E., requires specialized skills, time for preparation, and time for teaching. Third increased librarian time and well trained personnel will allow satisfactory standards for service to be achieved in elementary schools. Principals' substitution duly and the difficulties of time tabling French for split classes are two examples of the additional pressure librarians must carry thereby reducing their effectiveness. Fourth, teachers at elementary levels will be provided with a small amount of time per week for planning, consultations with students, parents and other teachers. Remember when... There wos a time when Sun Life simply handled life insurance. Times hove changed and so have we. Today with so many types of insurance available, you have to be knowledgeable to choose the one just right for you. I'd like to help you make that choice. 8594987 NEW TERM RATES THIS WEEKS Boy's Blue 98 Doy s Diue * JEANS M Sizes 8-16 ^T Aldergrove 5c TO $1.00 Store 27253 Fraser Hwy VETERINARIAN Dr. Erik Tolksdorff wishes to nnncuncc thd establishment of his equine prnctice.

On Saturday, the Aldergrove Hearts travelled to Surrey to ploy Surrey United Braves. It was a battle for first place and it ended up wilh the Hearts coming up with the win. It was a game that saw Surrey testing the Hearts goaltender in the first few minutes of the game. Surrey had four brcak-aways and they missed on all four opportunities. The Hearts defence was not playing the way that they could and Surrey took full advantage of the situation. The hard playing payed off and they got their first goal thai John McRory had no chance on. The Hearts never gave up and came fighting back wilh Billy Clark doing some hard work lo gel Ihc ball to Fred Stockfisch. Fred's kick was not the hardest one that he has ever made. For awhile it looked like the ball was not even going to make it over the goal line. The hair ended 1 - 1 and both teams were working really hard and both sides had many opportunities and the score could have been higher. The second half was the turn around for the Hearts. They came out and put the pressure on Surrey. The play went up and down the field and each time the Hearts came closer to scoring. Sharks eat Koppers Aldergrove Koppers came a cropper in their SB Division match against S.U. Sharks at Newton. The Sharks lept into the.lead with an early goal by Scott McKinlay. Attack after attack, spearheaded by a very fast Scott Rogers, was rewarded by two morc goals, before the Koppers were able to get into stride. A couple of promising movements, engineered by Koppers left wing'Gary Croft, failed to find the mark, and soon the Sharks were attacking hard again, slamming shots into the goal posts, and were it not for some fine saves by Scott Mclssac. would have further increased their lead. The second half looked a lot better for the Koppers. Time and time again Ihey attacked with Andy Macpherson narrowly missing a couple of goals, and Steven Simcock showing glimpses of his earlier sparkle on the right wing. The Sharks broke away again.

NE1LI FOSJl|jj{£/ Unguarded moments Vice-President, Rockefeller and House Speaker Carl Albert were overheard recently in some unguarded conversation before sonic microphones they thought were dead. But the mikes were live and both prominent U.S. politicians were delivering some vulgarisms about Liberians and Senator Ed Brooke, a black U.S. Senator. Later Mr. Rockefeller apologized to the Senator. But the damage was done. And the world could know if it wanted to just exactly what the two leaders said in their unguarded moments. We are told that actually every word spoken is never really lost. Given the right instruments every room could deliver up all the conversations, private or otherwise, ever held therein. That's disconcerting enough. But the Scriptures make it clear that the words of all men are being recorded. "By thy words thou shalt be justified or by thy words thou shalt be condemned." Rockefeller and Albert did us all a favor. They reminded us that absolutely everything we say will be public someday.

LANGLEY FUNERAL HOME PHONE LANGLEY: 530-6488 HENDERSON'S FUNERAL HOMES ABBOTSFORD LTD. PHONE: 853-8381 The grace off gratitude By J.E.MILLER Remember the story of our Lord commending the one leper out of ten who were healed, coming back to say "Thank you"? Why do you suppose our Lord approved of him? Why is gratitude 'a good thing? Not everyone has believed that it is. 1 think there are quite a lot of people who find it hard to say, "Thank you". One day recently on a bus an elderly gentleman and a boy were sitting ahead of me. They hadn't been talking, so 1 assumed they were strangers to each other. A few blocks along the journey the boy looked up at the gentleman's face and said, "What time is it?" The other took no notice. The boy repeated his question. "1 said, what time is it?" At this, the gentleman looked around, saw mc sitting behind him, and said, "When I was a boy we were taught to say 'Please' and 'Thank you'." This boy wasn't. You and I are often that way with God. Yet God has given us life and life eternal. We can say "Thanks" to God. How often do we? There seems to be a creeping tendency to discourtesy today. The pace of modern living makes us neglectful of plain politeness in dealing wilh others. When we stand at an intersection without traffic lights and watch the flow of traffic at peak hours, most drivers ignore those waiting to enter or cross the flow of traffic. Yet, during a power failure downtown recently when no traffic lights were working, it was a newsworthy item in the media, mentioning no accidents, to commend all drivers for their carefulness. I wonder if they were being careful mainly for themselves? Another glaring example of thoughtlessness is found in the fact that many people are in such a hurry lo pass through swinging doors, that they seldom take the trouble to hold a door for someone ahead or behind them. And few men or women ever say "Thanks" to someone who does hold a door open for them. How often we fail to show our appreciation for some ordinary service by saying "Thank you" to someone we may not know by name, only by sight. The jerson may be a clerk in a store or a post office worker, a waitress in a restaurant, or a bus driver...ali those whose services we take for granted, the habit of saying "Thank you" should always be an expression of appreciation; but never more so than to relatives and friends for any favor received. If we haven't learned to say "Thank you", on all occasions, then we are making the world a poorer place and making our souls poorer as well. This leper who come back to thank Jesus was, by thai simple act. putting something gracious into life and, at the same time, enriching the quality of'his own soul. There is no mention in the story of any punishment meted out to the other nine for their ingratitude. Cured of the foul disease of leprosy, they had much to be thankful for. We may imagine, because of their lack of response, that they were indifferent to the One who had healed them; partly through their inborn callousness, and moslly out of a desire to forget everything connected with their former condition that had cut them off from society. They . had gained much, but they were- the losers in the long run. It is always so with those who fail to be grateful. Let us consider what the exercise of this grace of gratitude contributes to the lives of others. There is a power in it to cheer up others. In most cases, there is an instantaneous response from o- thers when we thank them. Smiles light up their faces. The smiles may be of different kinds. Sometimes the smile is broad — expressing delight. Sometimes the smile is hesitant — revealing surprise. Sometimes the smile is warm — with mutual appreciation. For a brief moment all cares are forgotten. In that brief moment we come a little closer to each other. We share sympathy, understanding and hope, that are so much needed in our busy troubled lives.

The infinite subtleties of merging colours cannot be achieved using any other medium." Righton's subject matter covers a wide range, although living in a rural environment reflects itself noticeably in much of his work. "Of course what l see around me every day is bound to appear in my paintings," he says, promp- my paintings." he says, "In fact the attraction I feel for the Canadian countryside prompted my move from the city. However, it is important that an artist's horizons do not become too narrow, and experimentation must remain an essential part of his creative life." The exhibition of paintings by Colin Righton at the Langley Arts Centre this weekend opens Friday evening, 29th October, 7:30 - 9:30 p.m. and continues Saturday, 30th October, from 2:00 - 8:00 p.m. and Sunday, 31st October, from 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m, All paintings will be for sale. _ ■ ttl • # ■• ■ ■ Jltiiiiuiiya "in ui. tin ami', An exhibit of acrylics and water colors A biogrophy of «,„ arti$t whiclt time he exhibited widely in Ontario. In 1968 he opened up his own art gallery, but found that the business took up too much of his time and finally closed in order to devote all his energies to painting. Since that time his work has been exhibited1 throughout Canada and has been shown in the United States, Britain and Mexico. Mr. Righton has travelled extensively in North, Central and South America, and now lives and works in Yarrow, a small community in the Fraser Valley of British Columbia. His current paintings often reflect the rural environment in which he now lives, his subjects being carefully chosen and depicted in a wide variety of moods. Excursions to British Columbia's coastline have resulted in a personal interpretation of the subject matter that he finds there, whilst closer to home the old weather-torn farm buildings and other rcmnanls of the past hold a nostalgic fascination, not only for Ihc artist but for many Canadian art collectors.

You The paintings in this exhibition are all recent works executed in acrylic or watcrcolour. Until quite recently Colin Righton has been recognized for his work in acrylic, finding this medium a happy union of the qualities of both oil and watcrcolour, and the techniques of both are evident in his work. He says, "Acrylic can be applied in light washes, allowing ihe texture of the canvas to add a subtle tactile quality > the paintings. On the other h. d the painl may be applied using thick impaslo techniques generally associated with oils." Recently the artist has renewed an old love affair with water- colour.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 20,1976 17 Adequate farmer income urged CLOVERDALE — A province- wide organization is being formed to advocate the preservation of farmland and an adequate income for farmers. Initially, three groups have banded together to organize the Farmland Defence League. Representatives of the Save Our Farmland Committee of Chilliwack. the Agricultural Land Use Association of Richmond, and the Community Planning Association of Canada (B.C. division) made the decision to join the forces at a meeting here Saturday, October 9. Various environmental and farm groups arc being contracted to invite them to become associated with the new organization, William Brewer, chosen as interim president at the meeting, says individuals concerned about preserving farmland are being invited to become direct members of the League particularly if they live in areas where there are no organized local groups with similar objectives. Brewer says the Farmland Defence League, currently in the process of being registered under the Societies Act of B.C., will act as an "umbrella organization" to co-ordinate the efforts of local groups and individuals. The League would enable such groups to share information and ideas, and would supply research data tothc groups, says Brewer. "We hope to heighten people's understanding that they are not alone. Very often, other areas face similar problems, and sometimes from the same agency — like B.C. Hydro, for instance." he says. Brewer also sees "an enormous education job" for the league. "A lot of people went to sleep after the former government established the land commission, but ihe land commission, in itself, is not enough," he says. "A whole range of social and political measures is needed to ensure the continuance of farming. If a farmer has to pay more than $4,000 an acre for agricultural land, you can't expect him to settle for an annual return of $100 an acre." Brewer urges all individuals and groups concerned about the farmland issue to contact the Farmland Defence League at 801 - 318 Homer Street, Vancouver. We anticipate the Farmland Defence League will grow consi- derably during the next few months, says Brewer, and a formal founding convention will be held once the groups now being contracted have had an opportunity to evaluate the desirability of working together, likely early in the new year. R&H BOARS TO HONG KONG ALDERGROVE — In a CBC interview last weekend, a representative of R & H Farms, described a recent sale of Du- roche boars lo a Hong Kong swine producer. The producer had visited the R & H operation in north Aldergrove. and had been so impressed with the quality that he ordered a dozen of the boars a month later, The boar ' were shipped by air freight to Hong Kong earlier this monlh, -where they will be used in a breeding program. FV ROCK & GEM ANTIQUES FOR EVERYONE The things they say! By CHRIS POTTER ACCIDENTS AND TRAFFIC Few things can make anyone sound more knowledgeable about antiques than a conversation studded with the distinctive terminology of the trade. Knowledge of the subject is not always correlated to knowledge of the vocabulary, but an understanding of the commoner terms is a basic necessity for anyone interested in antiques. Worthwhile buying, in fact, is a dictionary giving antique terminology and description. Several readers have asked for clarification of certain terms, and I've included these in this column. To mention each reader by name is to use valuable space, so I hope each remembers the question! The initial "c." appearing before a date (e.g. "c.1895") has confused some people. This is simply an abbreviation of the Latin "circa" meaning "around" and is used to give an approxi- male date, within 10 years before or after the date shown. deeply. "Parquetry" is also inlay, but utilizes many shades of wood, in geometric or other patterns, lt can include a deep-cut inlay, or the use of veneer. "Intarsia", often found in the Renaissance and baroque styles, is heavily decorative and in addition to woods of various hues incorporates ivory, bone, metal, mother- of-pearl, etc. Table tops are found in a multitude of designs which can include inlay, "Tilt-tops" were popular in the 18th and 19th centuries and were made in a variety of sizes from the small parlour table (by the way, there were no coffee tables before this century) to the dining table. When not in use, the table could be stored with the top tilted to a verticlc position, showing off the grain. "Drum tables also range in size, are always round, and the main .feature is a number of drawers located beneath the top. Sometimes the drawers ran the Far more people are confused . entire circumference, sometimes by the different terminology used to describe inlaid wood, and the confusion is understandable because the terms are sometimes misused by dealers. "Marquetry" applies to the fine inlay of wood into wood, and usually refers to plain designs using only one type of contrasting wood. Marquetry is usually inlaid quite By CST. SCOTT, RCMP This week we'd like to impart some information which you may find rather interesting and alarming concerning motor vehicle accidents in the city and municipality of Langley. Statistics for the past 9 months of this year show that more accidents occur on Fridays and Saturdays than any other day of the week. Thursdays follow, as the second highest with Mondays close behind. Again from statistics, it ap* pears that the majority of collisions happen between the hours of noon and 6 p.m. By far the major cause of accidents is just plain careless driving. However, this is closely followed by drivers failing to yield the right of way to other vehicles. From January until August 30, this year, there have been 961 accidents in Langley, with 7 persons killed and 287 injured. For the same period, almost 7,000 people have been charged with driving infractions. Let's drive defensively and not become a statistic. Soys gov't commissioner Everyone will be heard ABBOTSFORD — Do you have an opinion you'd like to present to the provincial government com- tnision or community education? If so. don't worry if it isn't formally prepared, or if you are speaking as an individual and not representing a group. The Faris commission is going to be "truly open to public participation", says commissioner Erick Woodruff. Statements will be accepted from anyone who is interested in this subject, and they don't have to be formally submitted to the commissioner in advance. "Community education is different, because it is more individual, and more public," says Woodruff, "and this hearing is going to be the same." The hearing will be held October 26 at Fraser Valley College in Abbotsford, starting at 7:30 p.m. That will be the only official sitting of the commission in the Fraser Valley College region, and anyone from the district who wishes to attend is urged to do so, Woodruff said. "However, Woodruff will stage an informal "public opinion Seminar" at Aldergrove. Thursday, October 21 at 7:30 p.m. in the Fraser Valley College building at Airport Road and Yale Road West. He will report the results of that seminar to the official hearing in Abbotsford. The official hearing in Abbotsford will be videotaped by M.F.A. cablevision and Valley Telvue and will be replayed on Cable channel 13 in Chilliwack and channel 3 in Abbotsford. lt will be telecast in the Abbotsford area on Thursday, October 28 at 7:00 p.m. Telecast time in Chilliwack has not been set. Sapphire digging By MIDGE SMORANG ALDERGROVE — The October 9 meeting of the Fraser Valley Rock and Gem club was highlighted by an excellent slide program on sapphire digging given by Alec and Ann Rose and Norman and Elsie Young following their trip to Montana earlier this year. Later in the evening, club members and guests participated in screening and washing samples of sapphire gravel. John Thiessen also gave a slide program on the Wildwood Training Centre in Abbotsford, to which Ihc Fraser Valley Rock and RICHMOND SETTLEMENT Gem club donates a large portion of the proceeds from its annual show's ticket sales. The Mcrrificld table, hosted once again by Del Knowlton, contained an assortment of rocks which can be found in local rivers; jaspers, serpentine, porphyry and agates, all of which can be polished. There was also an interesting piece of petrified wood from the Red River Valley. Winner of the ways and means committee's special draw was Mrs. P. Whitelaw of Abbotsford. The next club meeting will be held November 13 at 8 p.m. at the O.A.P. hall in Aldergrove. Special guests will be Clco and fid Sparkcs, representing the B.C. Lapidary Society. ABBOTSFORD — Richmond r I l mum;; « gutim-img nun — « public library board and the SUCCGSSTUl DOZOOf fluted instrument used for ironing there was just one or two. The "pie crust" top found favour at the turn of this century, and is a raised edge surrounding the table, resembling its name. "Butler's tables" were plain, utilitarian bases usually with crossed legs, and they were fitted with removable trays, usually with raised edges around three sides. On any of these tables one might have found an "epergne". This table centrepiece, usually made from glass but also from metal and pottery, had' a variety of units for holding flowers or fruits. They are mostly found with a centre stem to which fluted vases arc attached at varying levels. On this and other kinds of glassware, buyers will often look on the base for a "pontil" mark. This is the rough spot where the piece was snapped off the glass- maker's rod (pontil), and it is often smoothed down although rarely obliterated. The pontil mark is assurance of the piece having been blown. Some other terms found around antique stores might include a "tappit hen" — this is a metal measure with a rounded body*/ thin neck and the mouth and lid are flared: "tolc" ware, a description for ornaments and other objects made from tin; "girandole" — a branched candle holder or the bracket on a mirror frame; a "gophering iron" — a Fraser Valley regional library board of management have announced that they have settled the differences that arose between them out of Richmond's withdrawal from the Fraser Valley system. By Nobcmbcr 30, the Richmond public library will deliver to the Fraser Valley library 25,000 of the books that were in the Richmond branches at the time of withdrawal on April 1 this year. This will give Richmond room in its libraries for the new books they arc purchasing and the Fraser Valley books to put into branches it is opening at Cloverdale, Port Coquitlam and White Rock. The two library boards have also agreed to allow residents of both areas to borrow books from all branches in both Richmond and the Fraser Valley system. This reciprocal borrowing and a system of inter-library loans will make systems available to all borrowers throughout the Fraser Valley and Richmond. The problem arose in part from inadequate provincial funding for libraries this year. and bake sale By LILLIAN BEESTON B.C. O.A.P.O. Branch No. 69 Fall Bazaar and Bake Sale, held at Pincgrovc Hall, Thursday, October 14, had many attractive displays to offer and was very successful due to the wonderful efforts and co-operation of the ladies who donated their time, crafts and baking, and worked so well together for the project, also the men who donated crafts and transportation. Ernie Goodison of Aldergrove won the large squash of 57 Ibs. in the weight guessing competition. Ed Jacobson of Aldergrove was the winner of the toy lamb, Mrs. B. Farcnholtz of Abbotsford won the footstool and Mrs. Patricia Kennedy of Kamloops was the winner of the cushion. Many arrangements of lovely Fall flowers were on the refreshment tables.

Few tools are needed, but care should be taken when you're working whh mineral fibre-type insulation. Small insulation particles can cause skin% irritation and itching. It's a good idea to wear gloves. And a shower at the end of the day will wash away particles left on the skin. When you're ready to start in the attic area, pull on pair of running shoes and watch your step. Walk only on the ceiling joists. Most ceiling surfaces under the joists are plastered; too much weight will puncture the ceiling. Boards laid across the joists will give you a sturdy working platform. To cut batt or rigid insulation use a sharp penknife or blade. Lay the insulation on a flat surface for cutting, Any accidental cuts in the vapor barrier should be taped before the insulation is finally applied. A heavy-duty staple gun is essential for applying batt insulation. You should be able to rent one from you insulation supplier or hardware store. Measure your walls and floor and attic area carefully. Once you've decided on the R value you need, talk over your requirements with the dealer. He'll help you figure out the right number of bags or bundles of insulation. It's bulky, so have it delivered. Store it in a dry place until you're ready to start work. Since warm air naturally rises and tries to escape, the ceiling is u major source of heat loss. Fortunately it's the easiest place to add insulation. It deserves first priority for rc-insulation (or "retrofitting") an existing home or insulating a new one. Good ceiling insulation will return fuel savings of between 10 and 30 percent depending on house type and existing insulation. Retrofit. First, find out the condition and depth of insulation ' already in.your attic. Some older., homes have none; most have a small amount — 2-inch or 3-inch mineral fibre batt — and this may have settled or become water damaged. You should have a ceiling R value of 20 or more, which means at least 6 inches of insulation. If you have less than that — say a 3-inch batt — you should upgrade it in one of two ways; (a) Add a further 3 inches of batt or blanket insulation. You don't need a vapor barrier because there should be one already on the ceiling. Buy insulation that comes without the barrier. When you lay the insulation, be sure that all areas arc covered except, of course, for the cave vents and other ventilators. <b) You can also use bags of loose fill. Pour it between the ' ceiling joists, then use a garden rake or a pusher (made from pieces of 2 x 2" and 2x6") to smooth and settle the insulation into all the corners. The fill should at least cover the top of the ceiling joists — higher if morc thermal resistance is required. Check the R value per inch printed on the bags. Again be sure not to block the vents. If there's no insulation and no vapor barrier in your attic, install one before insulating. In (his case plastic sheeting looped over the joists and fitted snugly down to the ceiling board would be best. New homes. The ceiling in a new home or extension should be insulated to at least R20. This means at least 6 inches of batt, blanket or loose-fill insulation, and an effective vapor barrier on the lower (warm) side of the insulation. The extra cost of a good insulation job will more than pay for itself over the life of the house. Your walls are the second most important source of heat loss. Aim for a total wall resistance of R14 or more.-This means an R factor for the insulation of at least 12, about as much as can be achieved with batts or blankets and «.-tnch wall studs. Retrtflh. Unfortunately, re- insulating walls is morc difficult and more expensive than ceilings. You do have a number of options, however, depending upon the type of wall construction, existing insulation and money to spend. (a) Wall renovation (frame walls). If your plans permit extensive renovation, remove the wallboard or plaster and rc-insu- laic the wall as you would a new one (see instructions below), then replace the wallboard. While you're at it, you might want to attach 1 x 2" or 2 x 2" strips to the stud edges to allow for more insulation in the wall cavity. < (b) Inside Insulation (frame or masonry walls.) To avoid the trouble of removing the inside surface of a wall, or when this can't be done as wilh masonry walls, you can apply new insulation (batts, blankets or rigid panels) to the inside surface. Apply strips to the wall to attach the insulation and covering wall- board. (Remember the styrofoam should be covered by plaster or gypsum board.) You tan use I x 2" furring slrips for thin styrofoam; use at lease 2x2" strips for batts. blankets or • thicker foam. Once your strips are in place, apply the insulation according to the instructions below for frame walls. (c) Blown-in Insulation (frame walls). If you have hollow, or almost hollow, wood-frame walls you can have a professional insulation contractor blow in loose-fill insulation. He can do this from the outside if small sections of the exterior can be removed, as wilh clapboard. If the exterior is brick, aluminum siding or stucco, he'll have to drill holes in the interior walls and repair them when he's finished. Care musi be laken lhal Ihc entire slud space is filled — that no projections or cross-braces hinder the filling process. (d) Foamcd-ln-plncc Insulation. The cavity in older wood-frame houses and in some masonry walls can be filled with a foamcd-in-placc insulation, such as urea-formaldehyde. This must as urca-fornialdchyde. This must be done by-a professional. Check ihc prices in your area and pick Ihc contractor carefully. New walls. When you're insu- laling new walls. Ihc idea is to put to as much insulation as the slud space will accept. For extra insulating value, consider 6-inch studs or a layer of styrofoam sheeting on the outside (under the Exterior surface). Follow the instructions below. When you start to work on a wall that has been framed, push blankets inlo the stud spaces so they touch the sheathing or siding. Work from the top down and place the staples about 12 inches apart, pulling down the flanges so that they fit snugly against the lop and bottom plates. If you're using friction-fit batts or blankets without an attached vapor barrier, first wedge them Where space is limited — or wall strapping is impractical, consider rigid insulation. Insulation around window should be snug filling. To combat any future P dampness problems, coal basement walls with a good waterproofing agent.

Don't forget to damp-proof the walls before you begin. You may find that even with adequate insulation, your recreation room is still on the chilly side. Perhaps your heating system lacks the capacity lo put heat into the room. Cold air lying static at floor leycl will chill Ihe feet and make your basement room seem colder. To help the furnace to a better job, be sure that a cold-air return leads from the basement room floor back to the furnace. This will allow the cold air to leave the floor area and be replaced bv warmer air. FLOORS Floors over unhealed crawl spaces, garages and projections should have at least R12 insulation. In most existing homes, insulation of open floors is easily accomplished with batls installed from below. Be sure to secure the batls with wire mesh or cross- braces. And remember to put the vapor barrier up to the warm side. The roof of the garage may be a floor for a second-floor room that is already covered in. To up-grade insulation here, use batts or blankets. These can be held snugly to the garage ceiling with cither a light lathe support of chicken wire. .: JAKZEN'S CUSTOM -SHEET METAL — inlo place, then cover the inside usual.

You can insulate masonry walls by first strapping them with 1 x 2" furring strips, 2x2" strapping or a 2 x 4 " frame, depending on the thickness of insulation needed. These straps can be placed on 16 or 24" outside centres, depending on Ihe thickness and type of wall finish. Remember that foam insulation should be covered with plaster or gypsum board. When you've completed the strapping or framing, refer back lo the earlier instructions for insulating framed walls. You can use R7 batls wilh 2x2" strapping by compressing them slightly: however Ihis reduces their insula- ling value to about R6. (b) Outside foam Insulation. It has been shown lhat basements can be insulated effectively and easily by applying foam slabs about 2 inches thick to the outside of masonry walls. Above ground the foam should be securely stuck to the wall, protected al the top from water seepage and coaled wilh painl or another covering to protect it from the elements. Below ground it's quile adequate to use a horizontal slab, at a slight angle to drain away water. This slab can be covered with patio stones, grass or a garden, ll acts as an effective heat barrier for the lower wall. In fact, this type of exterior insulation can be just as effective as interior applications. Basements are naturally cold and damp since most of their wall area is below Ihc ground level. However, much can be done to add warmth to a. basement recreation room. Outside walls should be insulated and storm windows added. A sub-floor overlaid with tile or carpeting will help to overcome the chilly floor problem. Any door into a cold room or cellar should WINDOWS AND DOORS The windows ard doors in your home can be responsible for 25 percent of your heat loss, even morc if they're poorly fitted. A single pane of glass has an R value of about 1. So it loses about 12 limes as much heat as the same area of poorly insulated wall. Adding double glazing or storm windows will double the resistance and eul heat loss in half— but it's still six times ihe equivalent wall area. Uninsulated doors are another big source of heal loss — especially if your kids leave them open. How much energy do you waste through single-pane wlndowsO Let's suppose the outside temperature is a chilly 20 deg. F (-7 deg. C) and that it's cloudy so that your windows arc not letting in the sun. If you keep your thermostat set al 70 deg. F (21 deg. C) and you have an average 200 square feet of single-pane windows, you lose over 11,000 BTU per hour, just through the glass. You could halve this loss by filling double panes or storms, and save I gallon of heating oil or 128 cubic feet of natural gas each day — thai represents a dollar saving to you of from 15 to 35 cents every day! Use donglc glazing. When you're replacing windows, install double glazing — either two separate panes or the bonded type. If you live in an extrememly cold area think about triple glazing, especially on windows facing north. Install storm windows. If you have single-pane windows, adding storms will cut your heat loss in half. The modern storm window is designed to be left on year-round: you can open both panes in summer and Ihe window is equipped wiih a screen. In older homes the storm- window frames arc usually made of wood. If you have this type, put them on in fall before you start using your heating unit. Remove them in spring. If you have air conditioning throughout the house, leave the storm windows on year-round. The air space between the two panes qf glass provides Ihc insulation and keeps the house at the temperature you want. Be sure there Is a space, otherwise it will be the same as one thick pane of glass. Plastic storms. For windows thai are not used for Ihc view, you can install plastic sheeting attached to the outside window- frames. Use insulated doors. All outside doors should contain insulation rather lhan hollow spaces. Many moderately priced homes have outside doors made of a light wood frame covered with plywood or a similar material, A light door doesn't give much protection against the cold. When the temperature is below 20 deg. F (•" deg. C). and Ihe sun is away from the door.' feel the inside of Ihc door with your hand. If it's much cooler than the walls near the door, consider putting on a storm door. Install storm doors. Well-fitting storm doors will cut heat loss and prevent chilly drafts. A slorm door can easily' be mounted by the 'average homeowner, but be sure lo lake the measurements of the door frame before you head out lo buy ihe door. They come in different sizes and you don'l want to waste gasoline making two trips to ihe store when one would do! The best slorm doors also have a screen so your house won't be invaded by summer insects when you want fresh air.

If any breeze is coming in, the movement of the plastic will show you where to caulk the window frame. Use the gauge on all suspected areas.

This is called infiltration and most Canadian homes have too much. In fact, up io 23 percent of your heat loss can be due to excess infiltration around windows, doors and other cracks. These drafts not only cost you money but can make your home unpleasant through winter. How far should you go in scaling up the house? Continue to seal, weatherstrip and caulk until you find that in quite cold weather, a light but not excessive fog or mist develops occasionally on windows on the downwind side. At this point you've a- chicved a considerable saving, without making the house to airtight. Most homes have a long way to go to reach this point. When you're sitting around the house, docs a member of the family occasionally complain of feeling a cold draft? This can be difficult to locate by feeling along the bottom of a window or around a door, but here's a simple item you can make to accurately pinpoint the source of the draft. It's called a draft gauge and all you need is a metal clothes hanger, a plastic sandwich bag (or a piccc of light tissue paper), a pair of scissors and two clothes pins. Cut the sandwich bag down each side and wrap one end over the crossbar of the clothes hanger. Use the clothes pins to fasten the bag to the bar. To check for drafts around a window, hold the gauge steady by the handle of the hanger with the them to fit well at the top corners. If your wcathcrstripping is flexible, you may want to put it in pieces for convenience or use one continuous piece for the sides and top. Tack or screw the side and top pieces to the door stops with the contact edges pressed evenly, but not too tightly against the face of Ihc door. The bottom stripping, depending on the type, is attached to cither the bottom Inside edge of the door or to the doorstep. Make sure it's a snug fit before you tack or screw it in place. Leaky windows should be wca- thcrstripped around the frames, using appropriate stripping. If the windows don't have to be opened they can be locked and caulked. CAULKING Caulk around the frames of doors and windows, and seal cracks under caves, around flashing, between bricks and in basement walls. You can buy a reasonably priced caulking gun and a tube of caulking compound at your local hardware or building supply store. There arc different types of compound; pick the right kind and colour for what you want to do. The more expensive ones usually last much longer. Effective caulking takes practice so go slowly and follow the instructions on the tube. Have paper towelling or a rag handy to wipe off the excess. When you're finished, run another check with the draft gauge to be sure all cracks have been scaled. INSULATION APPLICATORS COMMERCIAL - RESIDENTIAL INDUSTRIAL EXPERIENCE YOUR ASSURANCE OF QUALITY DUST FREE WHITE BLOWING IN WINTER FOR FREE ESTIMATES PH 534-6891 OR 534-6670 Most Canadian homes, especially older ones, are heated by oil furnaces. In Quebec and the Maritimcs, residential heating is almost exclusively by oil. In the conventional oil furnace, heating is accomplished by mixing a spray of oil droplets with air and igniting it to give a flame. To get the most heat, your fuel should be burned completely, the oil-air mixture should use the minimum quantity of air that will give a "clean" flame. Smoke at the tip of the flame will cause soot deposits, and rob you of heat. How well Is your fumace working? Three ways to find out yourself: The major care of your oil furnace should be left to a qualified serviceman. But there are a few points that you can look after yourself: Look for a dirty flame. In the front of your furnace you'll find a flap covering a small hole. You can peck in here to see the flame. {Careful! If your furnace has been on for a couple of minutes the flap will be hot.) Black smoke coming from the tip of the flame is a sure sign that your burner needs adjustment. Call a serviceman. Check for soot. When your furnace is not operating, take a flashlight and have a look inside the box. How much soot has built up? The morc soot, the less efficient the furnace — and the morc it's costing you to heat your home. If there's a soot build-up, arrange for an adjustment and cleaning. Even with a well-functioning burner there will be some buildup of soot during the winter. This happens when the burner switches on, before the fuel oil is properly mixed with the air. The same thing happens when the burner switches off. You can buy a "clutch coupling" or "solenoid valve" that will help to counteract this. Your serviceman will have the prices and can install cither one for you. Check the barometric damper. You'll sec the barometric damper on ihc pipe leading from furnace to chimney. This valve bumps open and shut as the wind blows and as the furnace cuts in and out. (Occasionally mistaken for a noisy burglar!) lt allows cool air to be drawn from the basement into the chimney, acting as a buffer to keep most of the warm air in the furnace. Check the damper and be sure it's swinging freely. If it sticks when you push it, clean the hinges and give them a drop of oil. When the furnace is on, check to sec that it opens. If it continues to stick in any position, it means you're wasting energy and money. Call your serviceman. Twlce>a*year service can cut 10 percent from your heating bill. Both furnace and burner should be checked and cleaned twice a year — once in summer and once midway through the winter, this will save at least 10 percent on your fuel bill. For every $400 you now pay for fuel oil, an efficient furnace-burner combination will save you at least $40. If all Canadians saved this 10 percent, Canada would save S90-million and 7.5 million barrets of oil a year. You can sec how every drop wc save can swell into big savings for the country. Here arc the six Important checks your serviceman should cany out twice a year. Make sore he docs: Remove soot. The fircpot, heat cxhangcr and pipes should be completely cleaned. Some experts go so far as to say you should be able to sec your reflection in the clean heat exchanger. Tell that to your serviceman! Check stack temperature. The largest heat loss will be in hot gases going up the chimney. To keep this to a minimum, your serviceman should measure the temperature of the gases leaving the furnace. It should be between 300 degrees F (148 degrees C) and 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Often this temperature is over 600 degrees F (316 degrees C). Much too high. It can be reduced by increasing the speed of the circulating fan. This usually requires an adjustment of the motor pulley. If this doesn't work —or If TURCOTTE INSULATION LTD. 221460 OLD TALE LANGLET GUARANTEED WORKMANSHIP you have a hot water or steam heating system — possibly the burner is putting out too much heat for the furnace and you need a smaller oil nozzle. Try a smaller nozzle size. Try a nozzle-size 20 percent smaller, or the lowest firing rate recommended for your furnace — whichever results in the greatest improvement. Your flue gas temperature will drop, furnace efficiency will increase and your comfort level should not change. If you feel cold when the furnace is operating, use a nozzle-size only 10 percent smaller than the original. Better still, improve the insulation in your house. Check smoke number. Your serviceman should draw a small amount of stack gas through a smoke density measuring device. In an efficient furnace, the stack .gas will be virtually free of soot. If not. the burner should be rc- tuned. Check carbon dioxide level. The amount of carbon dioxide in the stack gas will give a further measure of the furnace's thermal efficiency. Measured in this way, the best efficiency you should expect is about 80 to 85 percent. Check draft and adjust barometric damper. Your serviceman should check the draft or draw of air through the firebox and in the stack. The barometric damper should be adjusted if necessary. There are a number of other checks and procedures which a good serviceman will undertake. Ask your serviceman to do them on each visit. If you've ever been templed lo seek the services of an interior designer it was probably caused by lemporary insanity.

While the morc exotic of the species arc busy doing the White House or tracking down some elusive 14th century bedpan for a flower pot, the common garden variety can usually be found in local retail and department stores, independent design firms and architectural offices. Credentials arc frequently accompanied by membership in professional associations such as the American Society of Interior Designers (A.S.I.D.) or the Interior Designers of Canada (l.D.C). But of prime importance to you is the matter of selecting a designer whose taste, personality ana style you can relate to and appreciate. Before any arrangement can even be considered, take the time to gel acquainted over the phone or in person. Even a few minutes spent asking questions serves as a basis of knowing how comfortable and confident you feci towards a particular designer. You may want to ask aboul the type of work they do, how they charge, what time would be involved and what approach they might suggest lo your particular problems. They on the other hand need to know the scope of work involved, the location and your time schedule, expectations and budget. Because later decisions are derived from this information, honesty is imperative. Few designers expect clients to have impeccable laste. know exactly what they want and the budget to do if all al once! Most designers purchase at cost, sell lo their clients at retail. the difference bcing'-their profit. If you cannot afford to purchase or simply prefer to do your own buying, ask about a time charge or seek a consultant whose services arc fee based. As a helpful hint, once you've selected a designer, don't change direction. Stay with the room, the scheme or the budget as planned, it will be less frustrating on all sides. If you are being presented with concepts you're not happy wilh. speak up. If service is not as proposed then terniinate il on mutually agreed terms. The best arrangement is the realistic one. no miracles, no magic, no traumas...the results YOU want to achieve, the objective. New heat source on the scene In Canada there are now a few instances of central electric furnaces, with an electric element providing the heat source. There is little maintenance that can be carried out on these units. The heat pump is a new heat source for both residential and commercial use. It's basically a refrigerating machine which Get them done by qualified personnel only takes heat from a low temperature source (outside air) and delivers it inside the house at a higher temperature. For one kilowatt of power consumed, the system can produce the equivalent of about three kilowatts of heat in the house. It could be three times more efficient than electric resistance heating. Heat pumps are now being evaluated for the Canadian win ter, and with some modifications may come into wide use. The initial cost is high, but they may prove to be very useful and economical heat sources. Summer bonus: Another advantage of the heat pump is the fact that it's a cooling system in summer. Once the thermostat has been set, the pump will automatically heat or control the house to keep that temperature.

It is virtually important that the air intakes on the sides of the furnace are never blocked, since they allow access for the combustion air. A valve limits the amount of gas that is provided to the burner and an automatic regulator controls the pressure. The pilot light is on continually and ignites the flame when the burner switches A well-functioning gas furnace should have a thermal cffiecicncy of 78 percent. To maintain this, an experienced serviceman should inspect it once a year. Check with your gas utility. If they don't have the staff, they'll recommend someone to you. Be sure that only properly qualified and licensed personnel work on your furnace. There are strict safety regulations for natural gas operation, and in most provinces the service employees must be registered with the provincial government.

WORK on Labor's Day of Protest lasl Thursday but it was easy for mc since none of my classes were scheduled that day, 1 didn't lose a day's pay cither, and 1 didn't march down Georgia Street carrying a placard because that's not my bag. But my sympathies were all with those who did, My support of the trade union movement does not come about because I'm in a union, because I'm not. Nor because the AIB rolled back my salary last year. It didn't. I happen to think I'm well paid for the work I do and despite the fact that my salary increase last year amounted to less than the inflation rate. I consider myself damned well-off compared to many Canadians and rolling in affluence compared to most other humans on this planet. "Why then" readers might ask, "should Langley's token radical, Mark Rose, who obviously has little or nothing to complain about, and further, has previously proclaimed his doubts publicly about the manner in which the CLC chose to protest the AIB — why does he now tell us that he supports the Day of Protest?" First of all. it has something to do wiih the reaction of a large number of people who question the righi of a group of free men and women in a free society to protest unjust laws. Rightly or wrongly, organized labor has concluded that the AIB discriminates against all people whose principal source of income is derived from wages and salaries! To limit wages while oil prices, interest rates, ferry fares and auto insurance rates arc permitted to spiral dizzily ever upward, appears patently unfair and unjust, thus worthy of protest. Even Prime Minister Trudeau at whom the protest was aimed didn't question the right of free people to protest and neither do I. Second, there was the stance taken by large numbers of organized workers themselves who insisted on their right to go to work in defiance of the advice offered by their duly elected leaders. I don't question the right of any group (o make decisions which split the trade union movement and make it look weak and divided to the delight of ail the professional union-haters. I do, however, question their intelligence and their selfishness. Sure, I know it's tough to give up a day's pay to participate in an aclion which enjoys little open public support and is of doubtful effectiveness. But 1 wonder how many of these union non-participants have considered how fat their pay packets might be today if it hadn't been for unions? I wonder also how many who defied their democratically elected leaders last Thursday have ever refused lo accept a pay hike achieved for them by their leadership or have insisted on paying il .j..tr_ :■_..'... back? 1 know as a former school teacher that I've had a free ride for years on the backs of organized working people who had guts enough to be militant (and at times irresponsible) about demanding a fair share of the economic pie. My standard of living — and that of most other non-union working people — has been adjusted upward constantly over the years according to union gains. That's the way our society preserves the pecking-order. Of course, there arc those who demand the right of locals to second guess a decision democratically arrived at by delegates during the Canadian Congress of Labor's convention in Quebec last summer. Similarly, there arc those citizens w'ho demand a referendum every lime a contentious issue is debated in Parliament rather than wailing till the next election to "throw the bums out" if some law doesn't please them. Rather than opting out and providing satisfaction for those who 'would like to sec unions destroyed, a better course would have been'to support Ihe Day of Protest (like it or not) and Ihen work to replace the leadership. Finally. I abhor the openly racist pitch taken by some opponents of October 14 on the grounds that since a) Brilain is in deep economic trouble and b) Britain has a Labor government and c) some Canadian trade union leaders such as John Fryer and Joe Davidson have distinctly British accents — thai British trade unionism is solely responsible for bringing Britain to ils knees and the same thing is likely lo occur here if we're not careful. That Britain suffered the devastating effects of two World Wars and lhat Britain's onetime prosperity was based largely on an overseas empire in which millions of subjugated peoples provided cheap labor and cheap materials, plus a captive market in which their cheap raw materials were returned in the form of high priced manufactured goods from British milts is conveniently overlooked. These facts which explain Britain's current dilemma arc conveniently overlooked because wars and the loss of an empire doesn't support the pet theory that "It's those damn unions who arc responsible for all our woes." There's no question that there are some selfish and prejudiced, some dedicated, some single- minded and yes. even some slupid men and women who have clawed their way to union leadership. These same personal qualifies have also equipped individuals to head corporations and the professions. But there is are no black and while issues any longer and I sympathize with those agonized over October 14 — 1 did myself. In flic end Ihougli. it comes down lo a simple mailer of deciding whose side you're on.

BIRNIE LICENCED INSPECTOR 41-4191-2 ROAM AT HOME From information to attraction Kniploops informntion Imoth It isn't often that a tourist information office becomes a tourist attraction in its own right. But that's what has happened in Kamloops, where two of the v area's tourist booths attract peo- ^ -,. pie who arc as curious about the booths themselves as they are abmit accommodation or scenic sights. Their interest isn't surprising. Where else do you find a booth inside a cattle car or one with trees emerging from the roof? Ami where else, for that matter, can you play train engineer while you peruse your travel literature or discuss tomorrow's travel program in an architect-designed building? The older of the booths sits on railway tracks just north of Kamloops beside Ycllowhead Highway 5. It's made up of two pieces of rolling stock donated by Canadian National: a caboose that once rolled through eastern Canada and a cattle car that carried stock through western Canada. The cattle car has been refitted as an information booth: the only radical alteration was the addition of a picture window. The caboose still retains its fittings, with stove, cupboards, benches with storage space and an observation deck reached bv way of outside ladders. The other booth is located cast of Kamloops, just off Highway I at the Kamloops Wildlife Park. Travellers who continue on into the park will find moose, elk, deer, bears and other native and foreign animals roaming in 120 acres (50 hectares) of arrid land that resembles as closely as possible their native habitat. But many of the visitors stop to wonder at the information booth. Its external structure is in the shape of a tipi. made from laminated beams, two of them 54 feet (16 metres) long and 14(H) pounds (b30 kilograms) in weight. The other beams arc smaller, The beams meet in a square at the top of the building. Three fir spars, 45, 38 and 35 feet (14, II and 10 metres) high, rise through the roof of the building. The siructure was designed by a Kamloops architect. Both booths — and a third, more conventional structure — are operated by the Kamloops Chamber of Commerce for the city of Kamloops, (This Roam at Home article is one of a series provided by the Britisli Columbia Department of Recreation and Travel Industry.) No time to lace on skates ALDERGROVE - "1 don't know why we are under constant pressure to build more arenas in Langley." Mayor George Driediger said iii council Monday morning. "There is all kinds of time (available) at the Aldergrove arena," he said. "Docs the arena committee advertise and let the people know there is time left?" he asked. "In the public mind there is not time available." Driediger agreed with Aid, Elford Nundal that it is "pretty hard to lace your skates on" at the arena, since no time has been set aside for public skating. The mayor said the arena' stands empty for considerable lengths of time during the week.
