Store Monday evening Dec. 21. Regular patrons stood around, outside,. while the store filled with dancy-eyed children. Great shouts, and giggles were heard as the children watched the various films shown. As the story of The Night Before Christmas appeared en the screen, small faces became more earnest and long sighs were heard. Imagine the squeals of delight when, at the end of the film, a tiny girl discovered Santa seated in a corner with his bag full of presents and good things to eat! Amid the din of horns blowing, mouth organs hooting, guns popping and candy crunching the winner�� of the door prizes were announced: a lovely doll to Debbie Clark and a fire engine to Russell Nygren. The evening came to a close with the singing of carols. Santa's helper, Martha Brakstad, did a fine job. Many, many thanks go to Gwen Fretter who made this such a happy hour for the small ones of the community.

School board honors two retiring trustees Retiring Trustees, Mrs. Margaret Swan and Mr. Norman Hough were presented with a parting gift from the trustees, Mr. Jeffrey, district superintendent, and the office staff of the Board of School Trustees at the Dec. 14 meeting. Mr. Funnell, chairman, expressed his thanks for their long service, and Mr. Jeffrey, as a representative of the department of education expressed his appreciation to Mrs. Swan and Mr. Hough. The building program for this district is receiving constant attention and the finance chairman was requested to make every effort to obtain necessary funds to proceed with the new schools at Sechelt and Halfmoon Bay and the addition to the Elphinstone High School. Until the department of education makes a sale of debentures, this school board is obliged to depend on loans from .thie bank, and this district is just one of many waiting for such funds. Plans for the Trail Bay school, the Halfmoon Bay school and the addition at Elphinstone are in the School Board office ready for the calling of tenders as soon as funds are available. An interview with W. H. Thompson was held during the meeting regarding the potential building site in Langdale area. The chairman of the building committee had thoroughly investigated the district and a very choice acreage was chosen, but nothing is settled yet.* The finance committee has been asked to arrange a meeting wit'ln the committee representing the maintenance staff in order to draw up a working agreement, with salary scale acceptable to both parties. A thank you letter from the Association for Retarded Children and a report of activities until the end of November were read to the board. At this, time four children are enrolled in the special class held in the School hall at Gibsons, and anyone interested is asked to contact Mrs. A. Moorcroft, Gibsons. A letter from the department of highways in Victoria regrets that departmental funds are not available for paths along the highways for children walk ing to school. It is hoped permission may be granted for' outside parties; or organizations to proceed with making a suitable path; along the highway,- cne that will be used by many others than school children. The board met .-.Dec.. ���21. to clean up the year's bi:~:ness in order to leave a clean slate for the incoming board. While this board has not been able to accomplish all the improvements and building programs it had hoped 1:o do it feels it has aimed its sights in the right direction. Good wishes were extended tc the new trustees who will be installed in January. Band contest lik ely E The Pacific National Exhibition will stage a mammoth amateur junior band contest at the 1960 fair if enough units respond to its invitation to participate. Officials feel that province- wide representation must be available^ if the contest is to be a success. The upcoming Exhibition will mark the Golden anniversary of the PNE. Because of this, officials will build the fair around a B. C. theme. Emphasis will be on live participation representative of the industrial, agricultural and cultural developments of the province. Junior bandmasters are invited to contact the PNE if they, or their community, is interested in sponsoring a band Tentative contest plans envisage a four-day meet with a grand finale PAPER NEXT WEEK In view of the fact the Coast News staff had its vacation period during summer months the Coast News will be issued over this holiday period without a break. Next week's issue will be available by Thursday morning.

DENIS HARRIS Once again the Christmas season is upon us, the time that to most people's minds bring forth the spirit of giving. This is as it should be, for we in giving gifts to others, remembering our associations with people are taking part in that first example of love to all mankind, God's gift of His only son, Jesus Christ. Christmas, or the spirit of giving has drawn riches from the habits of every race to which the gospel has come. Like the shepherds and the wise men of old, people have brought their traditions and have laid them as offerings at the feet of the Christ Child. Let us for a moment look back and picture in our minds some of these customs. It was an old Roman custom to give presents at this time of the year, and this was readily taken over by the Christians in recognition of God's great gift of Hig Son. From Germany comes the Christmas tree which with all the evergreen decorations symbolizes the eternal life that is inseparable from our Lord's coming. The Scandinavians had an old cusom of bringing in a huge log which would burn for several days in an open fireplace. It was called a Yule-log. Although the original significance is obscure, it has become associated with the Christmas festivities. Everyhere bells speak of joy and gaiety, and a light is always the symbol of Christ as the Light of the World. Then there is Santa Claus, the personification of the spirit of Christmas, or as he has sometimes been called St- Nicholas. The story of this person pictures him as one of the ancient bishops of the church who lived in the fourth century. It is told that he was quite generous with wealth that he inherited and this wealtih. he distributed to children, being the patron saint of children because he had rescued three children from death. Being the children's patron saint "he naturally fitted into the Christmas scene. With alTthese quaint customs of the meaning of Christmas, one cannot help but see a reasonable similarity with the original ���gift to all mankind of God's only Son as an expression of the love and goodwill to the people that God created. Gift giving right from the very beginning of time has been an expression of love for one-another. This fact is back of all gifts that people give to one another, even though in the last few decades commercialism has been forced upon us through the channels of pretty colors, brightly lighted windows, modern wintertime songs and the like. This is a season of gaiety and rejoicing, but let us not forget from whence all this joyfulness sprung, the gift of the Babe of Bethlehem. May we before we indulge in the gaiety of the season take time out to return thanks to almighty God for these most wonderful customs derived from he original gift. May we each wend our way to the church of our choice, you going to your church, and I going to mine but, let's walk along together. Last Post sounded for CB One by one our most sacred institutions come up for review and reform and unfeeling hands are laid on our ancient traditions. Some of these changes occur imperceptibly, unnoticed by the populance, but "last week the trumpets rang out loud and clear for the rank and file. It was the Last Post sounded for C.B. and a soldier's farewell echoed through the length and breadth of the land, No More Jankers. In future the defaulter will no longer be confined, but merely restricted. And this is no verbal catch, because the proposed conversion of an irritant into a correctve carries some considerable easements in the lot of the erring soldiery, "Irritant" is the official interpretation of the old discipline, although more powerful language could be, and has been, applied to it. It is all too common knowledge that until now "confined to barracks" meant what it said: that the offender was not allowed to use the canteen, had to double up for roll-call at uncertain times of the day, and was kept busy on not too salubrious task��. He will now be allowed out of barracks until 10 p.m. if he is not required for fatigues, and will be able to use the canteen. The chief privileges he will lose are the sleeping-out pass and the right to wear civilian clothes. ��� Doubtless the barrack-room' lawyer will spot the brass-hat machination in this. "If he is not required for fatigues" ��� much virtue in that military "if." If there is an orderly sergeant anywhere in Her Majesty's Forces who cannot find, let alone make, a fatigue, then the Army of today is indeed something new and strange. Nevertheless, the wall has been breached and a matter is passing along the ranks. It is in a dream that we invisage the incursion of the shop steward and the working up of the final claim ��� No More Reveille? Then we would all wake up. ��� London Sunday Times. A two-week 10,000 mile tour of the Canadian Arctic to inspect Anglican Church work among Eskimos and to consult with missionaries, will be carried out next spring by four officers of the Anglican Church Rt. Rev. Donald B. Marsh, Bishop of the Arctic, has announced. The party, headed by Bishop Marsh, will include Rt. Rev. I. A. Norris Bishop of Brandon and chairman of the board of management of the Missionary Society, Rev. Canon A. H. Davis, general secretary of the Missionary Society, and F. H. Wooding, national supervisor of information for 'the Church. The party will leave Yellowknife, N.W.T., April 13, by charter aircraft and will visit Cppermine, Bathurst, Perry River, Cambridge Bay, Gjoa Haven, Spence Bay, Igloolik, Pond Inlet, Clyde River, Pang- nirtung, Frobisher Bay, Lake Harbour, Cape Dorset, Southampton Island, Baker Lake, Rankin Inlet, Eskimo Point and Churchill. The return trip will be made from Churchill about May 1. Although Bishop Marsh has carried on the practice of his predecessor of journeying regularly into the north to keep in touch with parishioners and clergy, and uses all forms of transportation to cover his 2,750,000 square-mile diocese, this will be the first time in the history of the church that an air tour involving other officers has been made over such a wide geographical area. The Anglican Church, which has provided spiritual, educational and material services to Eskimos and other residents in the Arctic for more than 100 years, operates 23 northern mission stations, the most remote of Which is at Pond Inlet on Baffin Island. The Church owns and operates two hospitals, one at Ak- lavik, near the mouth of tbe Mackenzie River, and the other at Pangnirtung in the Eastern Arctic, and also runs a nttrs- ing station at Hay River, N.W.T. With the department of northern affairs now having opened day-schools in many places in the Arctic, the church runs only three mission day schools, one each as Eskimo Point, Pond Inlet and Lake Harbour. There are 54 workers in the Anglican Diocese of The Arctic, 18 of whom are ordained priests. Two other clergy are ordained Eskimos ��� Thomas Umaok, stationed at Tuktoyaktuk, and Armand Tagoona at Rankin Inlet, while James Sittichinli at Aklavik is an ordained Indian. They are deacons. Ancient customs The hanging up of the mistletoe and the burning of the Yule log are two of the most ancient customs which come from our pagan ancestors. * * * ' Christmas cakes, iced cookies and other goodies are survivals of the old custom of giving confectionery gifts to the Senators of Rome. * * * Christmas south of the equator falls in midsummer. Thus the decorations are fresh flowers and the goodies often are fruits taken from tlie trees.

Ed. and Molly Connor Midway Groceteria Gibsons, B.C. Did you ever notice that the prettiest homes around the community at Christmas are the ones decorated liberally with the green things of the season? Their festive appearance is obtained easily with proper display of such things as evergreens, berries, seed pods and pine cones. These simple decorations are readily available to most everyone at no cost and to use an old expression: "The woods are full of them." A trip to the country to gather them can also be turned into a pleasant excursion for the whole family and a brief rest period from the "getting ready" for Christmas company parties, and holiday affairs. One word of caution, however: Don't kill trees or bushes. Prune carefully when selecting your evergreens. The Christmas tree ��� whether large or small ��� should be the center of the decorations. Place your tree in front of a window so that its bright, cheerful glow can be seen An mrerno seconds It only takes seconds for a Christmas tree, cotton batting decorations and paper wrappings to become an inferno of heat and flame. So do not invite fire to break out in your home this Christmas, urges Walter Griffiths, chief fire prevention officer for the B. C. Electric,. To help you prevent the tragedy of fire striking your home, Mr. Griffiths offers these tips for a safe and sane Yuletide: 1. Do not bring your Christmas tree into the house until the last possible day. Make sure the butt of the tree is cut at an angle and kept in water. 2. Do not use any open flames or any type of illumination unless it is approved and in good condition. Open candles, frayed and defective electric light cords are two* of the causes of ; many disastrous fires. 3. Make sure cotton batting being used is fire-proof. 4. Do not operate electrical toys at the base or in the vicinity of the Christmas tree. 5. Make sure that you dispose of all Christmas wrappings immediately. While you may use fire-proof Christmas wrappings, someone else could have forgotten. 6. Do not place your tree close to any radiation. 7. Make sure your garden hose is available in the event of an accident. 8. If you use flame candles at the table, or for other means of decoration, make sure there is nothing inflammable close" by.

CAVANAGH The B.C.-Yukon Boy Scouts Association has appointed a new field commissioner for ���the Vancouver Island and Toastal area. He is Bernard T. Cavanagh, 35, of 930 Fourth br"��f>t. New Westminster. The appointment was announced by Brig. W. G. H. Roaf, Boy Scouts provincial commissioner. Mr. Cavanagh replaces Field Commissioner Dennis Flawith, who takes up duties in the Fraser Valley area. Field Commissioners are paid Scout executives who provide service in the form of organization, training and ad- ice. Mr. Cavanagh, until his appointment an assistant scoutmaster, was born in Edmonton. He has been a Cubmaster. He served three years with the R.C.A.F. during the Second World War and was president, for two years of the New Westminster Active Club. His area includes all of Vancouver Island and the B. C. Coast up to Powell River. NATURES SCRAPBOOK By BILL MYRING The white pine is a tree that just can't keep its age a secret. Count the whorls of limbs and you know how old it is. Every year, the white pine adds another whorl. * , His Nose Knows The deer, like most animals, lives in a world where he is guided largely by a sense of smell. It is not a special sense, but a highly developed one. Deer blaze their trails with scent-secreting glands located above the hocks on their hind legs. When these glands are removed the deer thus handicapped easily becomes lost. The mule deer, which has a high, bounding gait when running and consequently covers a great deal of ground at a single leap, has scent glands about six times as large and potent as those of thq Virginia deer. The Virginia deer is in contact with the ground at much more frequent intervals and so does not have to leave such a powerful scent each time he touches down.

The Christ's eternal strain. Sophie Weinert (in The Christian Science Sentinel) "Just a few ounces of solid common sense can achieve greater happiness during the coming festive season than gallons of liquid entertainment," Mrs. E. J. Roylance, president of the Women's Institutes of Canada, stated in a pre-holiday message to Canadian women. Common sense, Mrs. Roy- * i -i I , I. .... - ���i���I ���!���< Light of life Tlie celebration of Christmas brought back the birthday party. To the early Christians, it was unthinkable to celebrate one's birthday ��� much less the birthday of Christ. Birth meant the assumption of original sin and frequently the beginning of a life of persecution and perhaps martyrdom. Birthday festivities, moreover, were a pagan custom. The Pharaoh of Egypt and Herod celebrated their birthdays, as the Bible relates. But it was sacrelige even to suggest that a Divine Being had a birthday. " In the 300's however, this attitude was beginning to change. World Book Encyclopedia reports that in the year 354 the Bishop of Rome declared December 25 to be the anniversary of the birth of Christ. But it took another pagan ritual to help establish Christmas. The ancient peoples of Europe had been accustomed to celebrating the winter solstice, when the sun seems to return to the Northern Hemj-? sphere, in late December. The* pagan feast commemorating the victory of light over darkness was simply replaced by the Christian festival honoring the "Light of Life." lance explained, means the dedication of Canadian women to the task of keeping their husbands, children and guests alive on Canadian roads. As hostesses to their relatives and friends, Canadian housewives should be concerned with their safety, Mrs. Roylance added. She suggested that Canadian mothers and housewives could make life safe for all by heeding the following road safety tips. Keep children off the streets and highways. Don't press anything stronger than coffee on your driving guests. Also, try serving milk, fruit and vegetable juices or hot soup, all cf which are so popular among many. Make sure a substantial snack and plenty of stimulating, hot coffee is served before your party breaks up. This will help both pedestrians and drivers to reach their homes safely. "No Christmas or New Year's party can be successful unless everyone in attendance wakes up alive the next morning. This, to a very large extent, depends on the hostess," Mrs. Roylance concluded. Mincemeat time Mjncemeat time is here again, and menus everywhere will soon be featuring the usual juicy, succulent mincemeat pie. Y'know .. . delicious as mincemeat pie, is, mincemeat pudding runs it a close second, I think. There's a dish really fit for a king! ; You simply make a cottage pudding batter, then put mince meat in the bottom of a baking dish, just as you'd put sliced apples for an apple pudding. Pour your batter over the mincemeat, and bake as usual in tlie oven. This pudding is delicious served with a caramel sauce.- By the way, did you ever try adding cranberries to your mincemeat? It's quite a tasty; addition ��� looks pretty and Christmassy, and adds extra ��� flavor and vitamins. Gibsons, B-C Holiday Best Wishes Wf ���"#*������ *?

The 28,000-ton Orient & Pacific Lines' Oronsay will be completely air conditioned when she arrives in Vancouver next month, prior to a Mexico- Hawaii cruise, leaving Vancouver on Jan. 18 and returning on Feb. 24. The $3 million refit was completed last month at Har- land and Wolff shipyard at Liverpool. Oronsay left London Nov. 27 and is now on her way to Vancouver via the Suez Antipodes and Hawaii. The air conditioning will be particularly appreciated during the upcoming cruise since much of the 24-day period will be spent in tropical waters. To keep humidity at a comfortable level as much as 100 tons of water a day can be removed from the air circulating throughout the sea giant. Pulp mills spend millions in fire prevention in their woodlands.
