Squamish Review: Friday, September 10, 1948

BANK OF NOVA SCOTIA OPENS BRANCH OFFICE AT WOODFIBRE
The Squamish Branch of the Bank of Nova Scotia opened its doors for business, on August 16. This community has long felt the need of a bank and a hearty welcome is extended to the staff.
Mr T.G. Dunn, the manager, comes to his new post after a year spent on the prairie as a hiring manager for the Bank of Nova Scotia. He will occupy the neatly equipped office just to the left of the entrance.
In the teller's cage you will find Mr J.W. Patterson, who is chief teller and comes here from Vancouver. The third member of the staff is a familiar figure in Squamish. Eighteen months ago Ione Magee left for Vancouver to work in the Granville and Hastings Street Branch of the Canadian Bank of Commerce. Now she is back to work as stenographer and ledger keeper.

WELL KNOWN WOODFIBRE MAN BURIED AT SQUAMISH
Resident of Squamish and Woodfibre since 1917, Ernest Clester passed away at his Woodfibre residence on August 23rd.
Mr. Clester was born in Wichita, Kansas, in 1988 and came to Canada while still a boy. He originally came to Woodfibre in 1920 and soon afterward joined the staff of the Whalen Company, predecessor of the present British Columbia Pulp and Paper Co. Mr Clester was associated with many developments of the Woodfibre plant and townsite.
Survived by his wife, Mrs Claire Clester of Woodfibre and 3 stepsons,
Donald, Mark and Hector Bellamy, Mr. Clester was a member of the Anglican Church.
Funeral service was conducted at the grave-side at Squamish by Reverend C.H. Gibbs. Pall bearers were W.A. Bain, O. Van Horlick, O. Briggs, D. Inglish, G. Hopper and J. L. Ferguson, all of Woodfibre.

TOWN'S SMALLEST CAR ATTRACTS ATTENTION
The honor of owning the smallest car in Squamish has passed from Mr Lyle McPherson to Mr Bill Manners.
In direct contrast to the heavy, cumbersome vehicles which are so common here, the new midget is a 1/4 ton Crosely pickup in a shiny green color.
Reputed to be easy on gas, these small cars may easily start a new trend.

LOCAL COUPLE TO RESIDE IN NEW WESTMINSTER
Mr. and Mrs. Stanley Mills, after living in Squamish for nearly five years, have left for New Westminster where Mr Mills is now working.
On Saturday, August 28th, friends and neighbors gathered to surprise them at their home. Among those present were Mr and Mrs R. Slack, Mr and Mrs Garrison, Mr and Mrs E. Aldridge, Mr and Mrs T. Halvorson, Mr and Mrs M. Halvorson, Mr and Mrs L. Gorsuch, Mr and Mrs R. Watson, Mr and Mrs N. Feschuk, Mr Dennis Downer and Mr Denny Smythe. The guests of honor were the recipients of a souvenir wooden tray on pedestals.
The following Wednesday the home of Mrs R. Slack was the scene of a baby shower for Mrs K. Kennedy and a farewell party for Mrs Mills. Needless to say, both guests of honour were thoroughly surprised. Among the ladies honouring the two guests were Mrs S. Frost, Mrs J. Knight, Mrs R. Farquharson, Mrs. P. Drenka, Mrs W. Bazley, Mrs R. Slack and Mrs L. Budgell.
Mrs. Kennedy was the recipient of a number of lovely gifts, while the whole group gave Mrs Mills a beautiful vase.

The building, owned by Mrs M. Carson has been taken over by Mrs Martinow. Mr Bill Smith and Mr M. Tyner are in charge of the re- modelling.
The building was originally erected for a real estate office some 35 years ago. For some years it was used for a grocery store, first by Tom King, and later by Rod Farquharson. Once renovations are complete, the building will not be recognizable.

CATHOLIC CHURCH PLANNED FOR WOODFIBRE
Plans for the building of the Roman Catholic Church in Woodfibre are under 'way, and it 1s hoped that the work d excavation will be started at an early date.
In the meantime, the Church has received with gratitude the gift of an organ from an anonymous donor in Vancouver. Pending the completion of the Church
the organ is being stored in the house of Mr. G. K. Hannah.

WOODFIBRE LABOR DAY EVENT DRAWS LARGE ATTENDANCE
By V. Lilwall
The last big event of the summer season attracted young and old to participate in the Labor Day program at Woodfibre.
The day got off to a good start at 9:10 am when the boat race got under way, on one of the few bright and sunny days we have had this year. The race was arranged to cater to all types of boats, the prize being given to the entrant who came closest to estimating the time it would take him to run the course, all watches and clocks being left behind at the beginning of the race. The route was a triangle from the small boat float to near the gravel pit, over to Watts Point, and back to the float, and the times estimated varied from 45 minutes to one hour, 50 minutes and 15 seconds.
Apparently the owners of the Woodfibre boats fail to do themselves justice, as in the case of each of the nine entrants the time taken to reach the float was less than the time estimated. The entries were: J. Lawson, W. Knowles, L. Bickell, H. Golden, V. Brait, D. Anderson, K. & N. Erickson, L. Labonte, and C. Bellis. The winner was Dave Anderson, who completed the course in 56 minutes and 35 seconds, with an estimate of 59 minutes; second prize went to C. Bellis (Time 53 minutes, Estimate 58 minutes); third, Jack Lawson (Time 30 minutes, Estimate 45 minutes); fourth, Vic Brait (Time 54 minutes, estimate one hour and 15 minutes).
The markers at the corners of the triangle were Mr W.A. Bain and Mr F. Mullin Jr., and Mr J. Henderson acted as patrol. The prizes were presented later in the day, the winner received a barrel of gasoline which was donated by J. Haar and C. Lea.
The boat race was followed by the children's sports up at the Ball Park.
The following is a list of the first, second and tkprd prize winners:
Boys - 8 years and under - Allan Johnson, Johnny Chadwick, Glen
Rudkin
Girls - 8 years and under - Marjorie Lea, Mary Dale Malm, Norma Bright
Boys - 10 years - Roger Harding, Ken Van Horlick, Alan Johnson
Girls - 10 years and under - Kathleen Rudkin, Carol Johnson, Norma Bright
Boys - 6 years - Johnny Chadwick. Jimmy Whalen, Alf Waldron
Girls - 6 years and under - Maureen Johnson, Marilyn Petovello, Sharon Beckett
Boys - 12 years and under - Neil Bowden, Mark Waldron, Mario Niro
Girls - 12 years and under - Lois Chadwick, Joyce Moretto, Glenda Whitehead
Tiny Tots - 4 years and under - prizes to all - Valerie Fuller, Coleen Brennan, Bernie Hobby

Girls Sack Race - Carlodine Malm, Lois Chadwick, Amerlys Cherney & Marion Tutin tied
Potato Race - 14 years and under - Brian Whalen, Alan Chadwick, Raymond Fogolin.
The New Veterans Band from Vancouver having arrived on the mid-day boat, the big parade took place early in the afternoon. The band with the Band's Majorettes led the procession, followed by the Woodfibre Wolf Cubs with their new standard, accompanied by their leaders, L. Hobby and R. Jones. The Wolf Pack was dressed in uniform and were a credit to their leaders in their first big parade of the season. They were followed by the children's entries of decorated wagons and doll carriages. Next came the Floats entered by the various departments of the mill and townsite.
The entries were: Pulpmill Millwrights ("Mandarin Garden"), Beach Plant ("Ma's Labour Day"), Machine Shop ("Shipwrecked Sailors"), The Engineering Department (More or less as themselves), the P.T.A. ("Home and School"), the Lab, ("Miss Woodfibre, 1948" complete with umbrella). Wood Plant (this could be described as an outsize baby carriage complete with personnel). Local 494 ("4th Birthday Cake"), the Foreman ("Job Incomplete"). The floats were most effective and showed evidence of many hours work on the part of numerous people. They were judged by popular applause, the winners being: 1st - P.T.A., 2nd - Pulpmill Millwrights, and 3rd - Bleach Plant.
The parade was completed by the decorated bicycles.
The winners of the best decorated doll carriages and wagons were Kenny and Janice Preiss, with pretty blue-and-white Dutch decorations; second, Coleen Brennan, with flowers in Autumn Colours; third, Donna Marlatt, wth Autumn
leaves.
The winners of the best decorated bicycles were, first, Alan Chadwick, second, Jimmy Douglas, and Harry Tutin, and third, Marion Tutin.

EDITORIAL
Did you ever stop to think that every dollar you spend in Squamish helps to make this a better town. The growth and progress of any community depends upon the
support given to it by its citizens. The business people of the town have its interests at heart or they would not be in business here. They depend upon the people of this district not only for their livelihood but also for sufficient volume of trade, so that they can improve their businesses so as to pass on dividends to the people who deal with them in the form of better service, better variety and better prices.
As a trading centre Squamish has improved remarkably during recent years. Many still scarce items are to be found here in fair supply since local merchants are keenly interested in doing all they can to provide their customers with the goods they want.
Some people do their buying elsewhere simply without thinking and without reckoning costs. A trip to the city for shopping or sending away by mail for goods needed costs money which few consider when comparing prices. They forget
too that if they are earning their living in Squamish, every dollar they spend here comes back to them in one form or another. Part will be in improvements to
local businesses, part in improvements to the town.
Dollars spent out of town never come back. Spent here they circulate, create business, add work and wealth to our own community. It's the dollars that come back that count. It will pay you to trade at home with your "home" dollar.

NEW PGE OFFICE BRIGHT ADDITION TO SQUAMISH
The week of August 22nd was a red letter period in the lives of the P.G.E. office staff. The new offices were ready for occupation.
To see the building today one finds it hard to believe that last winter a drab army hut stood on the same ground.
Completely renovated by the Jamieson Construction Company, the building is bright and airy and for the first time, all the offices are housed under one roof. The individual offices are spacious, offering ample room for development
on a large scale.
The building is finished throughout with pale green upper walls and ceilings, with the lower walls in a slightly darker green. The fluorescent lighting is of the most
modern type. The building is heated by an automatic oil furnace, thermostatically controlled from the general office. Ducts carry the warm air to the various
offices which it enters by means of a grill set in the wall close to
the ceiling.
Cool air, entering through grills near the flood insure a constant
flow of air.
The exterior is finished in the new P.G.E. colours, soft green walls with dark green trim, red roof and red door; not to forget the cement sidewalk along the front.
The new freight shed undergoing remodelling south of M. Rae's will leave the present freight office empty. This building will be remodelled for use as a temporary waiting room for passengers, as plans for a new station in keeping
with other new P.O.E. buildings are under consfderation.

MISSING BOAT SOUGHT BY LOCAL FAMILY
During the highwater of last weekend in August a gray, puntshaped
flat-bottomed rowboat went down the Squamish River from Buckley's Crossing.
Upon investigation, a three-foot piece of rope, attached to the anchor, showed signs of having been cut with a knife.
The owner of the rowboat, Alex Munro, would appreciate any information leading to the recovery of the missing craft.

ERNEST HAYES NEW PRINCIPAL
With a new fence in the rear of the school and a new coat of paint inside, the school opened its doors to the young people of Squamish on Tuesday, September 7th.
Taking the place of C.C. Whitlock as principal is Ernest Hayes of Lillooet. Mr A.E. White is returning as assistant high school teacher. Mr Patterson is taking Mr Sweeney's place, while Miss Loretta Chalmers is the new primary teacker. Mrs R. Webster, Mrs F. Caldwell and Mr R. Cherry are returning to familiar rooms.
On Thursday, September 9th at 8 p.m. the Squamish Parent Parent Teachers are holding a housewarming for the new members of the teaching staff as part of their regular meeting.
SCHOOL IMPROVEMENT
The rear of the school yard has acquired the new look. A neat new picket fence now separates the school yard from the mill road. Amazing what a difference even a fence can make.
LOCAL COUPLE MARRIED IN ALBERTA
The marriage took place at Olds, Alberta on August 1st, of Thomas Valdez and Mary Beuntjen, both of Squamish.
While visiting the groom's people, the couple, who had planned to marry somewhat later were persuaded to hold the ceremony in the midst of the family circle. Mr William Kaiser was his brother's best man while Mrs Kaiser was matron of honour.
After the wedding, the family, 22 in number, sat down to a wedding dinner.
Best of luck, Mr and Mrs Valdez.

to make a successful dance.
The Bishop of Lincoln has given three Anglican clergymen authority to practise divine healing.

DIAMOND HEAD EXPANDS
In a secluded lot next to Mr and Mrs Ingraham's an unusual building is being constructed. Made of logs, it will serve as a base camp in Squamish for Diamond Head Chalet. Mr and Mrs Emil Brantvold and the former's brother Ottar operators of the popular holiday resort, are erecting the building. Built in the Norwegian style familiar to the Brant vold Brothers; the structure will feature a sod roof, on which flowers will be planted.
In a short time, they hope to take their horses and Bambi up to Paul Ridge. Bambi, you know, is the pet deer raised on a bottle by Mrs C.B. Smith. When Bambi got too big for town life, the Brantvolds took him up to the Chalet where he has been a definite attraction.
At present there are about twenty guests at Diamond Head, among them Dr. Claude Dolman with his wife and three children, and Mr. Mrs. Ftjonald Klinck.

LOCAL RESIDENT BAGS COUGAR
His curiosity aroused by the unusual clamour of his dog, James Knutton of Brackendale, investigated thinking a coon the probable cause. Finding an alder tree the scene of the noise, he called to his wife to bring his gun. With one lucky shot he brought down a cougar the size of an airdale dog. Along with the cougar and two kittens killed in the Upper Squamish by Bill Dublack, that makes a total

WHY DOESN'T SOMEBODY DO SOMETHING?
To many Canadians, “Whv doesn’t somebodv do something?” is an almost instinctive expression indicating a situation beyond their control. But to the many Boards of Trade throughout the land it is the signal for action, the call to arms... especially when the "something" has to do with community betterment.
This is only natural. For over the years Boards of Trade have devoted their energies and talents to bring the “somebody” about affair - both business and civic - that affect communitv life. And in so doing they have established a successful record based on just such service.
The work any Board of Trade does is in direct proportion to its support. Your local board is no exception.

Squamish Review

Squamish Review: Friday, October 8, 1948

W.H. TOBEY RETIRES AS PGE SUPERINTENDENT
After eight years as general manager of the Pacific Great Eastern
Railway, Mr. WiIliam H. Tobey is retiring. Now 68, Mr. Tobey feels that he deserves a well earned rest, and hopes to find a little more time to play golf.
Eight years ago upon the death of Robert Wilson, the P.G.E. found
itself in need of a new general manager. Trained as a civil engineer;
Mr. Tobey acquired his first experience in railway work during the construction of the Grand Railway. When the Canadian National took over the Grand Trunk,
Mr. Tobey stayed with the railway and helped to run the railway which he had helped to build. He had become. superintendent of the Smithers division when he left to become general manager of the P.G.E.
Mr. Tobey's chief trouble was one common to us - a limited budget. And the P.G.E. as a railway suffered from the financial limitations. However, Mr. Tobey can be proud of what he has achieved; especially during last year. Old army huts were purchased and brought on scows from Nanaimo. Remodelling them resulted
in new dwellings so that much needed shop assistants could be employed. Bunk houses for engine men and trainmen have been supplied from these, as well as a
new larger laundry. A. new freight shed and freight office is undergoing renovation. Most noticeable of all to townspeople is the new office building and pleasing color scheme which has replaced the drab brown and cream of former years.
At present the Jamieson Construction Company is straightening the worst curves along the line. Cement retaining walls are being built in many places along Anderson and Seton Lakes.
Rolling stock too, has improved greatly during the last years. Four new engines have been purchased to take care of the increased volume of business. For work in the local yards a diesel engine was bought this Spring, with rumors of more engines to come.
The local carshop has done a great deal to add to the efficiency of the P.G.E. Many of the cars were purchased second hand, and to shop carpenters fell the task of remodelling these cars. The re-conditioned sleepers are painted in light colors and upholstered in soft shades. In recent months a coffee bar car has been put into use - a distinct innovation in railway cars.
As business all along the line seems to be booming, it is to be regretted
that Mr. Tobey will no longer be at the herm in the better days to come.
His successor, Mr. J. A. Kennedy took over officially on October 1st. Forty-nine years ago he started as office boy with the C.P.R. and rose to become superintendent of the Esquimalt and Nanaimo Railway. Earlier this year he retired from this post, and is now the new general manager of the P.G.E.

SHOWER HELD FOR ANNE REAMBRAULT
A shower in honor of Anne Reambrault was held at the home of Mrs. J. R. Buchanan.
A large number of friends and well-wishers spent the evening playing bingo; finishing up with a hilarious, contest.
Helping the bride-elect to open her many lovely gifts were her attendants. Miss Olga Sullivan and Miss Patricia Robinson. Hostesses for the enjoyable evening were the two attendants, Mrs. H. Butterworth and Mrs. J. R. Buchanan.

LINDA'S COFFEE SHOP OPENS
Catering entirely to evening trade, Mrs Martineow's coffee shop opened for business on Monday, September 20th.
The remodelled grocery store presents a new and bright aspect to hungry customers. Newly painted and finished within the red checked curtains and red stools give the place a cheerful appearance. The exterior of the building is receiving the first coat of paint it has ever had - a soft yellow which brightens the whole block. Serving only light lunches, Mrs Martinow hopes to appeal to the evening crowds. Her eating place is of special interest to men who work until a late. hour.

PULP MILL WINNERS IN SOFTBALL LEAGUE
The Softball Season for 1948 has now come to a close. Some difficulty has been experienced in playing off the games, due to the bad weather and the fact that many of the players have been working long hours on the modernization progarmme in the Plant. However, in spite of these difficulties, the games were thoroughly enjoyed throughout both by players and spectators, and in the final games the enthusiasm of the partisans of the various teams rose to a high pitch, so that in spite of the cold weather there were good crowds at all the games.
The League was won by the Pulpmill Team.
In the Playoffs, the Pipe Shop eliminated the Pulpmill, and the Beach Plant eliminated the Machine Shop, in the semi-finals (two games out of three in each case).
In the Finals (three games out of five) the scores were as follows:
First Game - Bleach Plant 7, Pipe Shop 5.
Second Game - Pipe Shop 4, Beach Plant 2.
THird Game - Pipe Shop 4, Beach Plant 2.
Third Game - Bleach Plant 9, Pipe Shop 6.
Fourth Game - Pipe Shop 7, Bleach Plant, 0.
Fifth and Final Game - Bleach Plant 6, Pipe Shop 0.
The six players with the highest batting averages in the League for the season are as follows: Freisen (Pulpmill .403; Miller (Bleach Plant) .390; Francis (Bleach Plant) .390; Doug Anderson (Machine Shop) .378; Brunn (Pulpmill) .375; Moretto (Machine Shop) .371.
The batting averages for the Teams are: Pulpmill .268; Bleach Plant .229; Machine Shop .223; Pipe Shop .202.
All teams are to be congratulated on a good clean series of games, and we look forward to the resumption of their activities next Spring.

SQUAMISH TOWING CO. ERECTING QUONSET HUT
The Squamish Towing and Contracting Co. are erecting the town's first Quonset hut.
This building, purchased from the National All Steel Building, is being erected by De Wolfe Construction Co., who are associated with the former firm. Before erection began, a cement wall 8" wide set with anchor bolts formed the "perimeter of the proposed building which is 40 feet wide by 60 feet long. When weather permits a full concrete floor will be laid.
The steel trusses, semicircular when erected, are connected by laminated purloins. The trusses and purloins are interlocked by metal screws, after the metal window frames have been put into position. Corrugated sheet iron is laid over the purloins. The purloins, being laminated, have a space between each peace, which has a wavy champfer that locks the nails driven through the sheet metal into this space. The building has metal shutter-type ventilators in each end and Yukon-type ventilators in the roof. Doors of corrugated sheet steel and windows have steel frames. The entire erection contains not one single piece of wood. The insurance rate on such a metal is practially nil. The completed building has an unobstructed ceiling 20 feet high.
This type of building forming army encampment huts was the only one to withstand the Florida hurricane of September 1947.
As soon as the De Wolfe Construction completes this building, they will proceed to the P.G.E. Shops where they are to erect a multiple Quonset hut, comprising of two sections, 40' by 80' each. The completed structure will form an addition to the car shop.
In future, the Squamish Towing Co. will be the new agents between Squamish and Lillooet for Quonset buildings. They will erect the structures from foundation to finish
anywhere in their district.

Some people can hear a rattle in their cars quicker than one in their heads.

BEAR CUB CHASED ON MAIN STREET
A young bear was the cause of a flurry of excitement among children on their way to school one morning recently. Driving one of the Squamish Transfer trucks, Irwin Thorne chased the animal up the main street in front of the P.G.E. houses. The frightened bear attempted to climb the fence into Mr. Stewart's yard. Unable to
do so, it again made a futlle effort to enter Mr. VaIde's yard. Finally the bear entered the woods on the dyke between the drug store and the Frank Scott residence.

FOTHERINGHAY BACKGROUND
By Elizabeth Richmond
Fotheringhay is a quiet littlee English village near the eastern boundary of the county of North amptonshire. Its long, wide main street is flanked by fields and most of its residents follow agricultural occupations. At the end of this street there is a green mound rising from a meadow which interests every visitor. The mound is all that is left of Fotheringhay Castle, in the banqueting hall of which the tragic Mary Queen of Scots was beheaded in 1587.

LOCAL COUPLE EXCHANGE MARRIAGE VOWS HERE
At a quiet ceremony at noon Saturday, Anne May Reambrault, daughter of Mrs R. Sherrington of Manchester, England, exchanged marriage vows with Angus McRae; eldest son of Mr and Mrs A. McRae of Squamish.
The service took place at the home of Mr and Mrs McRae, the Reverend C. Addyman officiating.
Shimmering pink satin fashioned the bride's lovely gown. Straight lines in front accentuated the fullness in the back and the sleeves were slim and pointed over the wrists. The neckline featured a yoke of pink net with a wide bertha collar of pink satin over the shoulders. The full length veil of pink net fell from a Queen Mary of Scots headdress of matching satin.
Given in marriage by Mr J.R. Buchanan, the bride carried a bouquet of Talisman rouses and white carnations.
Miss Patricia Robinson as maid of honor wore a full skirted gown of gold moire with shirred neckline and puffed sleeves. Miss Olga Sullivan as bridesmaid wore apple green taffeta with full short sleeves and bouffant skirt. Both attendants had matching headdresses similar to that of the bride, and carried bouquets of bronze and yellow chrysanthemums.
Mr Finley McRae was his brother's best man.
The quiet ceremony was immediately followed by a large reception after which Mr and Mrs McRae left by boat for a brief honeymoon.
For travelling the bride wore a blue-grey gabardine suit with dusty pink topcoat of gabardine. Her hat of grey felt featured pink ostrich feathers. Grey gloves with wine accessories completed her costume. Her corsage was of wine gladioli and white baby chrysanthemums.
Upon their return to Squamish, the couple will live in one of McKenzie's apartments.

"Did you get home all right after the part last night?"
"Fine, thanks, except that as I was turning into my street some idiot stepped on my fingers."
It makes an old man feel young when he sees a pretty girl drop her handkerchief... But he feels his age when he stoops to pick it up.

FIRE SIREN CAUSES FLURRY OF EXCITEMENT
The wailing of the fire siren last week caused a rush to the scene of the smoke. Fortunately, it was not serious.
A barrel of tar, which was being heated for sidewalk repairs in front of the Newport Hotel caught fire near the Public Works shed. Fearing a sudden shift in the wind
which would send the flames towards the building, Sandy Fowler turned in an alarm.
Instead of wetting the hose the fire brigade managed to move the barrel to safe distance from any building, where it was allowed to burn itself out.

SCOUTS
A Scout Troop is being formed in Woodfibre under the leadership of Mr A. Greatrex, who is an Eagle Scout, assisted by Mr V. Bidin and Mr J. Sobtka. Branch No. 181 of the Canadian Legion has agreed to sponsor this troop and it is hoped that they will be able to get started at an early date. The boys of Woodfibre are very fortunate in having a Scout Master of Mr Greatrex qualifications, and we all wish him every success in this undertaking.

QUICK THINKING SKIPPER SAVES SHIP FROM SANDBAR
Fast thinking on the part of the skipper of the tug "Gleeful" saved the U.S.S. Capilano from puling up on the sandbar between the dock and the barge ship.
While a strong south wind was blowing, the stern line of the Capilano was loosened before the bow line. The wind immediately swung the stern around. The Gleeful's skipper threw a line to a crew member of the larger boat, and proceeded to pull the Capilano into deeper water.

LOCAL CHURCHES BUSY
On Sunday, October 3rd, St. John's Anglican Church held its Harvest Home Festival. The church was beautifully decorated with seasonal flowers and garden produce.
The Squamish United Church will hold a similar service on October 10th, the decoration of which is to be largely in the hands of the Sunday School pupils.
On October 17th Mr A.E. White will conduct, in the absence of the Reverend Addyman, who will be in Woodfibre for the opening of the new church there.
Both the United and Anglican Sunday Schools are now in full swing. On October 3rd the United Church Sunday Echool held its annual Rally Day service which featured a small stringed orchestra and a mandolin solo by Joanne Feschuk.

P.T.A. HOUSEWARMING
On Thursday, September 9, the Squamish Parent Teacher Association held its first meeting of the year.
A cordial welcome was extended to the three new members of the staff, but unfortunately only Mr. Hayes the new principal and honorary president of the P.T.A. was present.
Mr. Hayes reported that the school building is literally bursting at the seams. For this reason, the staff is advocating the erection of a new Junior-Senior High School to house Grades 7-12. As present classrooms are overcrowded, two additional teachers have been requested.
It was decided to hold a membership drive, November 1st to be the closing date. The class having the largest membership of parents by that date is to receive a magazine
subscription. Another picture, suitable for younger children, is to be purchased as a monthly attendance prize.
Light refreshments were served to give parents and teachers an excellent opportunity to mix.
At the next meeting, to be held Thursday, October 7, the books purchased by the P.T.A. for the school library will be on display.

CANADIAN FOREIGN TRADE BREAKS RECORD
Canadian foreign trade reached record proportions during ths first half of 1948, with total merchandising imports and exports amounting to $2,671 million, an increase of $85 million over the corresponding period of 1947. Trading conditions in June, however, showed a drop in wheat and flour shipments to the United Kingdom, following last year's short crop.

matching Dutch cap. She carried an old fashioned nosegay of rosebuds.
Mrs R. Cole played the wedding music, and Miss Kathleen Cole sang, "I'll Walk Beside You" during the signing of the register.
Following the ceremony a reception was held at the Parish Hall, where Mr. E. Carson proposed a toast to the bride.
For their brief honeymoon, the bride wore a dress of turquoise gabardine with matching wool topcoat and black accessories.

LADIES ONLY
Members of the fair sex in Squamish looked hopefully at signs of activity around the vacant beauty parlor. Their hopes were fulfilled on September 22nd, when Mrs. Gladys Parks opened for business.
The old saying about never missing a thing until it is lost proved true in the case of the local hairdresser. Mrs J. Murnern opened for business where the Imperial Oil Station now stands, the ladieS of Squamish have had the services of a professional hairdresser; until Mrs. McIntyre left the business early in July of this year.
Ladies whose locks have become long and unruly are keeping Mrs Parks busy. For 21 years she has operated hairdressing parlors on Vancouver Island in Port Alberni, Courtenay and Ladysmith.
In addition to hairdressing, Mrs Parks carries a stock of notion and ladies ready-to-wear.

SOFTBALL CUP CHANGES HANDS
After spending a year with the Hardwoods, the softball cup donated by the B.P.O.E. Lodge has changed hands and is now in possession of the Squamish Legion.
The winning team had to work hard to obtain the cup, as the Hardwoods team led the Softball League steadily during the whole season.
In the playoffs, the Legion and the Hardwoods each won two games, so teh last game was a real battle, with the Legion winning. unfortunately for the Hardwoods, their pitcher was handicapped by two injured ribs.

Figures compiled at army headquarters reveal that 475 Chinese-Canadians, 165 Japanese-Canadians and 3,090 Indians served with the Canadian Army during the Second World War. The majority served overseas.

HOSPITAL PLAN EXPLAINED
Premium payments under the government's hospital insurance plan will begin shortly, and for approximately 80% of the population hospital insurance will be a new experience. The remaining 20% are now covered by other plans.
Explaining why the six month's prepayment, Dr. J.M. Hershey said:
Hospital insurance cards, proof of payment and eligibility, will be good for the first six months of 1949, and cannot be issued until one half-year's premium has been paid.
Prepayment is an important factor in guaranteeing general participation and is the best way of insuring continuation of the present low premiums.
ESTABLISHING ELIGIBILITY
Under the Hospital Insurance Act, payments to hospitals can be made only on account of persons who have actually paid premiums. Eligibility, therefore, must be established for over a million people by January 1.
The insurance card provides proof that a person has paid his premium and guarantees payment of the hospital bill by the Hospital Insurance Fund.
Prepayment protects the individual and his dependents during periods of unemployment when it may be difficult to pay premiums on the due date.
INSTALMENTS CONVENIENCE
As to the instalment method, Dr. Hershey said this was for the convenience of those who wish to pay by this way, rather than having to make one payment.
After the three payments have been made by early December, covering a six-month period, a hospital insurance card will be issued entitling the contributor and his dependents to benefit up to June 30, 1949.

FALL FAIR ODDITIES
In reviewing the prizes at the Fall Fair a number of interesting items came to light.
Mrs Ross Barr entered in only seven classes and succeeded in winning first prize for each of her entries.
Ten year old Donna Sande led the children's awards to the extent of winning a special award for a crocheted doily which had to be entered in the adult's class as there was none for children.
Mrs Axen entered a sweater made of wool which she had spun herself, then did her own job of dying and finally knitted the garment.
For such garments, a handicraft class would be the ideal solution.

FAMILY REUNION
Mrs Henry Smith and her daughter, Mrs Claude Hartnell left on September 20 for Swan River, Manitoba where they will spend a month with Mrs A.M. Peyton, also arriving from England in 1901, Mrs Smith spent 13 years in Swan River. Now, after an absence of 25 years, she plans to renew old friendships.

MERCY FLIGHT FOR LOCAL CHILD
Betty Dent, nine year old daughter of Mr and Mrs L.F. Dent was flown to Vancouver by the Vancouver U-Fly Service on September 28th. The same evening she underwent an operation for appendicitis. She is recovering nicely and will soon be home again.

WOMEN'S AUXILIARY TO THE LEGION
At theri recent meeting the Women's Auxiliary to the Legion decided to launch a drive for foodstuffs for needy veterans overseas. It is hoped that the food thus collected will reach the veterans in time for Christmas. So dig in everyone, let's all donate a bit which means little to us but much to them, and make sure your donation is suitable for overseas shipping.

WAR VETERANS UNDER BC HOSPITAL PLAN
The position of war veterans under the B.C. Government Hospital Insurance Plan has been clarified.
All veterans must register. Only those who are completely covered by DVA under all circumstances will be exempt. There are only two classes of such veterans.

  1. DVA students, so long as they are still in training.
  2. Veterans in receipt of War Veteran's Allowance.
    The dependents of these two categeries are not covered by DVA and, therefore, a premium must be paid on their behalf. The premium for a wife will be $15 per annum. For a wife and one dependent $24 per annum, and for more than one dependent, $36 per annum.

Soot should not be left lying in the furnace during the summer a it will absorb moisture from the air and rust the interior.

"I was conserving my energy for his next move."
