As a result Chairman A.E. ' Ritchey and Chairman Mrs. Christine Johnston of Sechelt will have to be nominated, elected by acclamation, br by a vote if an opponent appears. New chairmen will be elected for a two year period. Under the old system it was necessary only for the required number of members to be elected- to fill vacant corrimis- \\ sion seats and the elected members would then select a chairman from among themselves. ��� __ Framers of the Municipal act were of the opinion the old system had' its drawbacks and that throwing open to public voting the chairmanship of the municipal body would give the voters the right- to choose their chairman instead of leaving it to the members elected to;*, the commission. In '���'���Sechelt there will be two to be elected to the village commission because Com- misalioners Sam Dawte and Bernel Gordon would be retiring. In Gibsons Commissioners Harold Wilson ahd Harry Mylroie will be retiring. Under the new electoral plan there could be an election for a chairman only if the commissioners were elected by acclamation. So far there have been no murmurs . of any new faces in the running for village commissions! at Sechelt or Gibsons.. Now that nomination and election dates are fixed by statute Gibsons and Sechelt will have nominations on. Dec. 2 and elections if necessary on Dec. 12.

Crump of -the C.P.R. in Montreal. Here is a copy of the letter: Dear Mr..Bennett: A special meeting of the ex- trict- Ratepayers: Association ecutive pf the Gibsons and Dis- was held Friday, Oct. 25, to discuss the increase in ferry rates amounting to almost 100% on trucks being ferried from Horseshoe Isay across Howe Soimd, by the Black Ball Ferry and effective Dec. 1, 1957. In this connection I was directed to write you on behalf or the association protesting against any individual or company having the authority to increase transportation rates, particularly to such an extent of nearly double the present rate. *��� Further, it is understood that the present private bill to the Black Ball Ferry covering this trip from Horseshoe Bay tp the Sechelt Peninsula gives them the authority to again increase the rates up to 100% after three months has elapsed from any previous increase. From your trip to Gibsons and the.Peninsula as a whole, you will realize that we are *in a geographical position ^somewhat similar to Victoria and Vancouver Island generally, i.e. we have tb rely on trucking for much of our food stuffs and practically all other commodities. . , . From this geographical parallel you must;realize the effect this increase in trucking . rates must have in prices on food and , Pther commodities. ICfdfS k of appeal Just supposing that some bright morning you picked up your Victoria paper and as a bolt from the blue you read \"Trans-' portation charges have been increased nearly 100% on all trucking between the mainland and Victoria.\" ' It is rather doubtful if there is another transportation company in the whole Dominion of Canada which has the authority to make increases in rates vifhout the approval of a gov- : erning'body -and- even if -there is, this association strongly condemns such authorty being given any individual or company. The Gibsons and District Ratepayers Association respectfully petitions you as the premier of this great province to take the- necessary action to have such undemocratic authority made null and void. Yours Truly, Wes B. Hodgson, President Gibsons and Dis-; trict Ratepayers Associa-, tion. loo soon A beautiful array of colors lit the sky at Sechelt, when a Roman candle or rocket exploded $60 worth of fireworks garnered ��y the Kinsmen as a treat for the kids on Hallowe'en ' ��� It happened a half hour before the time the show was to start, and a few early birds were the only ones who saw them.

A huge bonfire on the. beach attracted many bystanders, as there was a cold nip in the air.

Prepared by the Student Council High school students of Sechelt School District No. 46, are planning a centennial year bopk for June of 1958. Now that 'we have started to work .on it, we think perhaps our project is too ambitious for a small high school, but so far as we know, no other organization in the area is planning anything of an historical nature for the centennial year. We realize, now that we have begun to try to collect pictures and information, that much early history has been lost to xis with the death of some of our old timers. Therefore, even though we may have undertaken a project too big for us, we believe it is up to us to do the best we can with it and try to preserve at least part of what is left of our early history in the Sechelt School District. We have students and people looking for pictures- and information at Port Mellon, Roberts Creek, Sechelt, Gibsons, Bowen Island, Pender Harbour, Vancouver Bay and Nelson Island. ..The plan of our book is something like this: . A. A dedication to all the senior citizens with special reference to all citizens of the \"area over., 90 years of age. We know of four and would be glad to know of others as we don't want to miss anyone. 1. Grandpa Farnham. 2. Prof. Henderson. 3. Mr. Bob Stevens. . 4. Mr. Cook (of Sechelt) B. A pictorial history of var ious phases, of life in our district, for example: Logging ��� a picture of logging by ox-train then with horses, the first-donkey engine in the area, and finally the latest piece of. giant logging equipment here in action. A similar pattern fqr the following ��� transportation, houses, schools, sports, costumes, and any other phase of life for which we can get pictures. C. Write-ups of historical episodes, early adventures, logging or fishing stories, and songs. We are especially anxious to get the words of and the story behind an early logging song called \"A Piece of Larry's Corpse.\" D. And finally we want a section on high school life here in 1957-58 ��� class pictures, teachers, school activities, sports and extra-curricular activities. This is as far as our plans are to date. They are still a little hazy because we are not sure of what we can dig up. We will welcome suggestions from readers, and are hopeful that citizens of the area will send us pictures and historical tales. Because we realize that to ask people to buy a book that is not yet published is really asking them to buy a \"pig-in-a- poke,\" we have added the feature of a free ticket on a drew for a portable television set. Every purchaser of a $3 book will receive the free ticket on the TV set. Students will canvass the settled areas of the district. However, in case youi receive no call from a centennial book salesman, you may order by mail. The advertisement on page 8 of this paper gives you pertinent infosama- tion and a coupon.

Louis Olivier Gamache, a squatter on the lonely island of Anticosti early in, the 19th century, fostered the legend to preserve his privacy. It is thought that he lived by piracy as well as hunting, fishing and trapping. He was born at L'ls- let, Que., about 1784, and died on a remote part of Anticosti Island that now is known as Ellis Bay, where he had lived in well-armed seclusion. He served in the Royal Navy as. a boy and went into business at Rimouski, Que. He married twice and had several children. When his business failed, he left Rimouski to establish his lonely retreat. .i. .t. ..\"> \"I- -�����* T- What was ihe secret of Grey Owl? One of the most noted fig- . ures among advocates of con- . servation in Canada was Grey Owl, known as an Indian who did wonders, in domesticating the beaver and working for numerous conservation projects as a gifted author and lec- * turer. His: secret was that, although he had been received as an Indian by George V and was widely accepted as such, he was-really George Stans- ield Belaney, born in England in 1888, without any Indian blood whatsoever. He emigrated to Canada, became a trapper guide and forest ranger, embraced the Indian way of life, and married an Iriquois wo-- man. Much of his wildlife re- ' search was done at Prince Albert National Park. He died in 1938. * * * Who was Paul Kane? ' Paul Kane was an artist who travelled, extensively with traders of the Hudson's Bay Company and produced many fine paintings of Indian life in Canada. A large number of his Indian paintings are in the Royal Ontario Museum, Toronto, and in the National Gallery. His famous book \"Wanderings o* an Artist Among the Indians of North America\" was pub- ' lished in England in 1859 and a new edition was printed at Toronto in 1925.

This visitor was an old sea captain. _ The two chatted about where they had been and Agamemnon Channel cropped up. Arthur's ears perked up and the two exchanged pleasantries about that section until the. old sea captain thought the channel ran into Howe Sound. But Arthur Godfrey mildly argued it did not: However, what really mattered was that Arthur said' he knew because he had been in tlpt country and asked the old captain if he had ever gone up Princess Louise Inlet. On hearing he had not Arthur advised liim to do so \"because it has the most beautiful scenery in the worlk\" He also described Howe Sound and Jervis Inlet as being most beautiful, the finest scenery anywhere. .. ��� This spontaneous \"praise coming from a man with a large following in Canada and the United States will more than liklly plant a seed in some minds and as a result we shall get some visitors we do not expect. -f ��� But and this is something which should be pointed . out ���- how many will,say they heard about this country on Arthur Godfrey's show? Mighty few if any. Yet there are advertisers who complain, because ho one mentions they saw theirfad ���J in any publication, that advertising is useless. How many people when they buy a coke, an auto, a TV or the food they jeat, say they read the advertisement in any paper. t We have a future The Sunshine Coast is growing to ;the point where people are paying more interested attention to its potentialities.\" Reason for such a remark is the B.C. Telephones two-man team in the area sizing up its telephone requirements for the next 20 years. With such a move afoot it would appear the days.ofCthe cow trails are now ih limbo of time and those living here must expect a continual expansion.- '���.*'.\"��� 'v There is one item on the schedule which will not trouble the two-man team and that is the number of vacant premises. Anything habitable these days is occupied. More yolaces are needed'and morewill be heeded'urgently before long. ^ The exploration work of the two-man team will take -at least two months before the results can be put on-paper for -future use. This move shows the Sunshine Coast >has a bright future. Some sayit is the. WestTVancouveJ of the future; What with better transportation\" facilities and the establishment of an airport all we need is heavy industry. This will mean more popula- ion. Both will come. When, is the problem to be decided. GOD KNOWS THE HUMBLE We hear much about leadership and youngsters must get a int-e weary of it. We need leaders but we also need people who are content to play second fiddle arid, without them l11c iiiuoic of liie* would be impossible. It is ,a foolish thing to belittle people and make mem ieei they don't amount to much. I once heard a man say about a great ; egotist \"If you could take the conceit out * of . that man, no one could identify the remains.\" The older I get the more I admire humility duc: we tend to put prominent people on pedestals and under rate the humble. ������������}�� ��r- There is an amusing story about Kermit Roosevelt, son of the late President Theodore RoOi-e-veit. When Kermit was at college and his father \\vas in the White House, the president made a- si,atea^em which excited controversy. Because the President was a forthright, outspoken man, he was often in txouole. Kermit's friends were a^ouisoiiig uie axiair and Kermit defended his father. \"Dad's all right,\" said Kermit. Then, aner. a little reflection, he went on. \"Tne trouble with.bad. is ' that he's .got to be either the bride at tlie wedding or the corpse at the funeral.\" That was it! The President waj essentially a first-fiddle man; he would have been unhappy in any other role. Other people often criticize, aggressive persons for loving the limelight, but. the plain truth * is that they, have qualities required for leadership and the voiid needs leaders. ' Late in life that giant in heart and mind, Phillips Erooks, said, \"I would like to have been captain of a great ocean liner.\" That is not hard to believe,>-He was a born leader of men, and it is difficult to imagine,him in any other * role. In most people there is a desire to know the direction in which one is going and, if possible, what the outcome of life's experiences will be. They like to stand upon the captain's bridge. *\"' * * ��� _ On the other hand, it is certain that much of the world's best work is done byy people Who are second fiddles aind live their lives filling -humble* and'���*- obscure roles. The great Shakespearian actor Sir Henry Irv- < ing attributed much of his sur- cess t0 the fact that he insisted on small parte being well play, ed. He said, \"lean get anybody to play good parts, but it is extremely difficult to get an actor willing to play small parts **��Wwvc��ewK#: / w / ***+ oth have a ��� t bank account-and savm <* Plans really start to take shape when savings start to grow.

But as your dollars . build up you'll find yourself facing the future with greater confidence, making plans with hew. assurance that you'll be able to carry them out., Use a chartered bank to-keep your savings safe .. and growing. You will always he glad you did. Save at a bank ��� millions dot ahd put his bes.tTihto doing it.\" The Australian essayist Dr. Frank Boreham points out that the two great British: statesmen of the last century, Gladstone and Disraeli, belonged to the same political party in the beginning but that, because they were both first-fiddle men, they separated and went, to different camps. Each man was so strong-willed that he got on the other's nerves. That may or may/not be the best explanation of their long animosity, but it sounds reasonable. ��� Many people who are second fiddles thoroughly enjoy the role. Boswell tagged around after Dr. Samuel Johnson and loved it. Someone has said that whenever you see a gentle meek man married to a strong minded, * domineering woman he is tremendously proud of her and that while others may be sorry for him he does not pity himself. He knows his place and keeps it; Dr. Boreham once preach a series of sermons on secoi fiddles, and he must have h endless material, 'both in t Bible and out of it.. For-ihstan when writing to the Pliillipia a group of people he had on known well, Paul asks to remembered to some whom : mentions, by name. Then : appears to have forgotten t names bf others, and tactful writes, \"My fellow labpure: whose names are in the bo< ot life.\" It is as much as to s: \"I cannot.recall their: nam* but God knows, for their nam are in His Book..\" y I believe that the second fi dies; are the happiest Tpeop: Those who are in the Jimelig pay a heavy' penalty for the prominence;' their Trespbnsib ities get them down.

Of course it's impossible. But if electricity could be bought that way, people would soon see how much more electricity they're using now than in previous years. It's a matter of record that the average B.C. Electric residential customer now uses nearly three times as much electricity as in 1946, but is-paying less per kilowatt hour. It means that people are enjoying better and brighter home lighting, more electrical appliances and more comfortable electrical living with low-cost electricity - today's big bargain.

So much money is needed that it cannot all come from one source, says the report. \"Governments, municipal, provincial arid federal; business and industry and the public generally will all have to contribute generously if universities are to meet the demands that the age of automation and nuclear energy is making on them.\" : In his report, covering the past year, Dr. MacKenzie discusses the suggestion that enrolment at UBC should be limited to the. very best students. ,Dr. MacKenzie labels the pro- . posal a \"daydream\" and adds, \"The time has passed when we , could organize our educational *.'.'. system for the few. . T University entrance regula- . tions should not be altered, Dr. . MacKenzie isays, \"biit I do insist that we have a duty.to provide facilities for those who meet the existing standards. And in the next ten years we may expect twice a�� many to . meet those requirements as do how.\" Commenting on the expansion of Canada in general and B.C. in particular, Dr. MacKenzie says we shall stop our own expansion if lecturers, buildings, laboratories and residences are not provided. We may also expect demands ; from underdeveloped areas he says and if aid in the form of ' trained manpower is not forth- coining we may find that we have lost valuable friends to Russia. A more difficult problem, ��� the president writes, iry the shortage of staff in the face of expansion by other North American universities and the demands of government and industry. Another \"vitalneed\" referred to in Dr. MacKenzie's report is a national system of scholarships, bursaries and loans. Almost one-third of first ��� year students are responsible for all their expenses at UBC and nearly one-half of students in their senior year are supporting themselves entirely, . the report discloses. . Dr. MacKenzie adds: \"Our tradition that students work in the summer is a good one, but we must not allow the desirable principle of self-help blind us to the very real need for greater means of aiding students than we now have.'-' WEEKEND VISIT Mr. and Mrs. Art Wickman, North Vancouver, formerly of Roberts Creek, visited with Mr. and Mrs. Harry Batehelor of Selma Park over the weekend.

The rate charges do not apply to passenger cars or their occupants. Trucking lines have filed notice of intention to raise \"their own rates \"to meet a 95% ferry rate increase\"; the new truck freight rates will be effective Dec. 1 also and will represent about a 33 % in minimum rates, and a 10% raise on general freight over present, truck rates. One trucking line told the News that' where Jt cost him $22 for a one way trip frorii Rebekahs hold bazaar Sat. Nov. 2, the Arbutus. Rebekah Tea and bazaar was enjoyed by a great number of people and, while at no time was the selling very brisk, still the results were gratifying. The post office with Mrs. W.

The Theta Rho girls served the guests, and they al-, so. had a table of various articles in the bazaar. Vancouver to Powell River, the jiew rate for his large van would be $40.one way. ��� Black Ball, argues ih support of its price jump that truckers take up three tiihes as much space as passenger vehicles, arid in view of that the present rates are proportionately put of line. Protest against the truckers proposed rate increase may be filed with the Motor Carrie* Branch of the Public Utilities' Commission in Van c b u v e r; there is no public protest through official channels allowed against any rate changes by Black Ball Ferries, which have a long-term (25-year) agreement with the provincial government protecting them against competition and allowing rate increases of up to 100% without challenge. The ferry company is answerable only to the provincial cabinet. No changes are contemplated in the rates charged by Black Ball on its Horseshoe Bay-Nariaimo run. On this run it operates in competition with Canadian Pacific Steamships Vice-president I.D. Birse of Black Bajl told the News that the Nanaimo run operated on ration that truck rates be threerto-one compared to* passenger vehicles, rates. \"This is considered normal in the ferry business,\" he said, \"and raising of the Howe Sound-Jervis In let rates as proposed will simply be putting them in \"line with Nanaimo rates.\" ��� ��� Asked why the. three-to-one rate had not beeri instituted when the original tariffs were set up six years ago, Mr. Birse said, \"It was an entirely new operation for us and we had nothing to go on.\" /'The truckers have now had a chance to get started in business at the low rates and it seems only fair they should now be prepared to pay their proper share of transportation costs.\". Operating charges have increased, he went on, and at present negotiations with ern- ployees are underway which forecast a possible 50% hike in operating costs for shipbome employees.: T T Is this commercial increase a prelude to increased private ^vehicle fares? T Mr. Birse said there was \"definitely no idea\" of iri- creasirig passenger car or occupants' rates. Referring to present truck rates, he classed them as. \"ridiculous.\" V \"A trucker,' ori ^communica-. tion rates, at present pays $4.32 for an average truck, some pay as low as $3<40r for truck and driver. A passenger car pays 8 Coast News, Nov. 7, 1957. $7.80 for a smaller space.
