Paee 4EDITORIALSGULF ISLANDS DRIFTWOODWednesday. November 3, 1976Down throughthe yej* rsFrom Driftwood FilesID cards and the B.C. FerriesBy now most island residents should realize that there areconditions to be met if they want to enjoy the reduced residentfare on B.C. Ferries.Fortunately, those who have so far refused to apply fortheir ID cards represent only a small minority of the islanders.Still, their adamant stand continues to frustrate ferry officialsand fare collectors, who must contend with unnecessaryabuses, and at the same time ward off the hostility displayedso openly by the non-ID card holders.It's incongruous that ferry staffs should be subject to suchabusiveness over a system islanders want in the first place.What is more, the B.C. Ferries was not responsible for issuingthe iu cards, since that task was left to the Capital RegionalDistrict.As it stands now each island resident who has an ID card,issued by the regional district, is entitled to the reducedresident fare. Those who do not must either pay the full fareor refrain from travelling via the B.C. Ferries. It's as simple asthat.Other conditions established by B.C. Ferries state thatstudents over 15 years of age who travel ferries regularly mayuse their current school ID cards or they may obtain their ownresident ID cards, if they so wish.However, students who use the ferry system occasionallymay use their parents' resident ID cards as long as they carry acovering note from their parents.Management of the B.C. Ferries are also maintaining aflexible stand concerning children under 15 who travel byferry. Those children travelling with their parents who havetheir resident ID cards, will automatically get the residentrate.Undoubtedly there were many islanders who neglected to 1obtain their ID cards when the issuing office was set upweekdays, though not on Saturdays, inthe provincialgovernment building at Ganges recently. Now they may find itdifficult to apply at the Capital Regional offices in Victoria.Whatever their reasons may be, we belveve the regionaldistrict office could solve many of the problems eroding theeffectiveness of the resident ID-card system by setting up theissuance office again in Ganges, so it will be readily accessibleto islanders.'Regional officials may find there are islandresidents, currently on the voters' list, who would takeadvantage of a final opportunity to obtain their resident IDj?ards.Wear a poppy and rememberIt is time again for Legion branches in the islands toprepare for the annual poppy campaigns. The sale of poppiesgo on sale this week.Remembrance Week is from Nov. 5 to Nov. 11 and thetheme is "Remember-Today is Yours - Participate". It has amessage for most of us, whether war veteran or not. Thewords "Today is Yours" are directed to the majority of ourpopulation, those who have not experienced war. The word"Participate" isacalltothe new generation to get involved inthe Legion and particularly in remembrance.Remembrance Day and the week leading up to it is thelogical time for all of us to look at ourselves as citizens, toevaluate what we have and to appreciate our inheritance.Editor's pen is poisedOne letter to the editor this past week failed to appearin Driftwood and its author may already be planning tocomplain tomorrow - don't bother, the letter was libellous.It is only fair that we remind readers that a heavy red penwill always be put to letters containing libel and characterassassination by innuendo. We do not desire our editorial pageto become a dirty linen clothesline.We encourage an exchange of ideas, constructive criticism;but it is no place to make broad, sweeping charges that cannotbe substantiated. Libel laws are strict and just because youasked, perhaps, that your name be withheld does not offeryou, or this newspaper, immunity from actionable comment.Personal vendettas, or neighborhood complaints will not bepublished any more than libellous letters.We enjoy the letters and our readers tell us they do too. Wehope readers continue to take a moment to put theirviewpoints on paper, but we ask you to keep a sense of fairplay about therru Ask yourself if you would want what you putdown on paper said about you.Also we ask all writers of letters to the editor to makecertain they sign their letters.

Driftwood:Sir - I am an employee of theBritish Columbia Ferries andhave had the opportunity of livingon Salt Spring Island for the pastfour years. For this period of timemy place of work has been on theLong Harbour ' to Tsawwassenroute.Every week 1 look forward toThursday in order that I may readthe local paper, as we areprivileged as employees of theferries to have so many articleswritten about us.I now feel it is time for theIsland residents and our weekendtravellers to have one employee'sview of them.Island residents of Salt Springon the whole, are usually quitepleasant people. They return yoursmile and usually have a niceword. There is the exception,those that complain of staff being,overpaid and doing nothing, etc.This always-surprises me as 1wonder if these people realizethat about $100,000 per monthcomes into this communitythrough employees' wages. Thisdoes not include extra staffemployed during peak periods, orthe jobs given to sons, daughters,aunts, uncles, etcetera.Every business on the Islandbenefits directly from each employeenot only in monetary waysbut also in publicity. Every employeeis a public relations outletfor the Islands. They give anyinformation possible about availablebusinesses and facilities thatthey can. I wonder what pricecould be put on that!Pender, Mayne, Saturna, andGaliano Island residents on thewhole are a beautiful lot ofpeople. The weekenders are thepeople each employee looks forwardto seeing on each Fridaynight.1 am sure they save all theiremotional feelings for one emotionaloutburst on Friday nightsafter a week of mainland pressuresof everyday living. It allstarts when they rush aboardwith, dogs, cats, and everythingelse mentionable. First it's themates privilege of being cussed atfor being late, or for not bringingthe vessel into a closer dock, orfor holding the passengers backso he may first unload the ferry. Imust state that there are reasonsfor these latter points, none ofwhich is the intentional discomfortof passengers. The mate iscalled everything under the sunand the language is sometimesunbelievable.The seaman who is doing hisjob by directing passengers andautomobiles on the car deck sothat they may disembark at theirDrooer destinations as quickly aspassengers insisting to tie theirdogs to control levers, hatchcovers, and doors. He is subjectedto abusive language when hetells people to put out theircigarettes while on the car deck.Don't these people realize what afire would do with all those gastanks?From the car deck to the maindeck each employee met is subjectedto some form of abuse atone time or another. On reachingthe cafeteria it continues. Thetables fill and other passengersare waiting for their turn to sitdown and eat. Every employeetries to have tables made ready assoon as they become available.Available did I say? There arepassengers who have considerationfor others and vacate theirtables as soon as they arefinished. But there are also thosewith no consideration whowill sitat their table until they havereached their destination. We dohave a seating problem which isno fault of the employees andabuse to the employees won'tsolve it. •Many passengers have nicknames for masters because ofincidents such as hitting docks toohard. 1 wonder if these passengersrealize what skill is needed tohandle a 3000-ton ship. Tides,wind and the mechanical side ofthese landings all play a vital partin docking this size of vessel. Howmany passengers, I wonder, realizethat on foggy or stormy daysand nights the master and matesspend eight hours or more withtheir heads stuck in a radar unitbecause visibility is poor.Yes, we have complaints aswell and would like to expressthem to some of the passengersbut can't.I know my fellow crew membersand I know that they are welltrained on the whole and all wishto do a good job.We have bad days as doesanyone but will always endeavorto provide a service to the publicto the best of our ability. To thosewe have helped we know youappreciate our attempts. To thosepassengers who travel with us welook forward to serving you andwill always try to assist in any waypossible. Thank you.A.S.

I have had a lifelonginterest in the many facets of thisprocess.I was born in Victoria and tookmy early schooling there, thencontinued to McGill University for•a Bachelor of Science degree.After several years of working inthe commercial dietetic field inthe east, I returned to B.C. tomarry a young doctor from Nanaimo.We spent four years in Minnesotaat the Mayo Clinic, whereMayne museumopen SaturdaysMayne Island museum is continuingits service to the public bystaying open on.

Jim Burrows,formerly of Mayne, alsoworked during the summer.my husband specialized in internalmedicine - moved from there toPenticton. The pull of "tidewater" was very strong, however,and after 11 years in the Okanagan,returned to the SaanichPeninsula where my husbandopened an office in Sidney. Hewas invited by the Salt SpringMedical Group to do referrals onthe Island, and was so impressedwith its beauties, that we madethis happy move here 2Vi yearsago.In Penticton I became veryactive in P.T.A. and school relatedactivities.

I was appalled, tosay the least.Even if his figures are accurate,they only show one side ofthe question. I feel that the factsare much more accurately representedon page 13 of the sameedition of Driftwood in the advertisement,sponsored by the B.C.Teachers' Federation. This -adshows properly the proportion ofwage-corporate profit increases.While wages rose an average of25% between 1971 and 1974.corporate profits rose an averageof 111%! And yet Mr. Jacksonhas the gall to blame labour forinflation.During the past year, whilewages have been under verystringent controls, the costs ofmany commodities and serviceshave risen dramatically. Car insurancehas at least doubledinmost cases, ferry fares have goneup 300%. coffee prices have risenover 40% and the price ofpetroleum products has risendramatically, to name but a few ofthe many increases.The Anti-Inflation Board hastaken away the right to collectivebargaining through restrictingthe only weapon that trade unionistspossess - the right to withdrawservices to support contractdemands. The A.LB. is trying totell them that they don't have theright to demand more than 8%annually.I attend Simon Fraser University,and during the past sevenweeks. I have probably felt theeffects of a prolonged labourstoppage more than most peopleever will. The university has beenexisting (barely) without any servicesat all since Sept. 8, becauseof a strike- by maintenance workerson campus. With the exceptionof classes, and the library for afew hours a day, everything oncampus has been shut down,including most sanitary facilitiesand all transportation facilities.Approximately 800 unionizedcampus personnel refused tocross the picket lines.The strike hinges on theuniversity's contention that theA.I.B. would not satisfy thesettlement demanded by the union.The union demands weresimple-parity with maintenanceworkers who performed the samejob at U.B.C.The only thing that the AIBhas done thus far has been thedestruction of the collective bargainingsystem. But they havedone that very well.Richard Cawker210-545 Rochester AvenueCoquitlam, B.C.Hospital patientsenjoy DriftwoodSir - We at the Lady MintoGulf Islands Hospital would liketo express our appreciation toDriftwood for the continued interestand goodwill in providingcomplimentary copies of Driftwoodfor our patients, week in,week out, year after year.This is a generous andthoughtful service, for whichmany thank you.Harold HoffmanAdministratorLady Minto Gulf IslandsHospitalKnow how to care for your boat.Make sure the hull is sound andyou have an anchor and apaddle on board at all times.Wednesday, November 3, 1976GULF ISLANDS PRESSCOMMERCIAL AND SOCIAL PRINTERS*LETTERHEADS INVOICES *STA TEMENTS*BUSINESS CARDS *ENVEL^PESNEW ADDRESSBOX 990, GANGES, BC VOS1EOPhone 537-5442Formerly J.

There willbe many new works as well as afew of previously shown pictures.ANIMAL SKETCHESPat specializes in drawingsand sketches of animals that areso accurate in detail as to bePAT WRIGHT is pictured at work sketching animals in her studio.NO RESIDENT CARD, NO REDUCED RATEExhibition to open in Central Hall On Sunday, Nov. 7almost photographic and it isphotography that is the mediumfor her work.

The variety of animalsruns into the hundreds.Pat, of course, can draw directbut to ask a deer to stick armingB.C. Ferries clarifies rulingon use of resident ID cards"No resident card, no residentrate."Briefly stated, that's the definitiveruling of the B.C. Ferries,and it is one that has causedfrustrating moments for officialsof the ferry system, especiallyfare collectors at Crofton andSwartz Bay.In some incidents, the collectorshave been roughly abused,and as a result B.C. Ferries haveenforced this stringent rule (onthe use of) the resident identificationcards.Consider the case of oneislander, who didn't possess IDcard and refused to pay the fullrate of $7 at the Crofton collectionoffice. Instead, he slapped down a$5 bill and went on the ferryanyway.As a result of this incident,ferry officials have lodged acomplaint against the islanderwith the RCMP detachment atGanges."Islanders without their IDcards, who refuse to pay the fullrate and board the ferry, atCrofton without a receipt, willfind the police waiting for them atVesuvius Bay," said a BC Ferriesspokesman.• This has also prompted thepolice to point out that ferry userswho give incorrect information toticket collectors to gain reducedresident fares may be liable tocharges under the Criminal code.Police warn islanders, forexample, to provide the correctChurch ServicesSUNDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 1976ANGLICANSt. Mark's Central Holy EucharistSt. George's Ganges Family EucharistDaily:Mon.-Fri.St. George's Ganges Morning PrayerWeeldv: WednesdaysSt. George's Ganges Holy CommunionROMAN CATHOLICSt. Paul's Fulford Holy MassOur Lady of Grace Ganges Holy MassUNITEDDr. V.

Fortunately,they represent only a minority ofislanders, say ferry authorities.The issuing of ID cards restswith the Capital Regional Districtoffice in Victoria, not the B.C.Ferries. Nonetheless, the B.C.Ferries are getting most of thestatic about the cards.To clarify the conditions governingresident ID cards, Driftwoodobtained these rulings fromthe B.C. Ferries:•Every adult must possess IDcard to be entitled to the reducedresident fare.•Students over 15 years of agetravelling regularly on the ferriesare advised to obtain their IDcards from the regional districtoffice. Failing this, B.C. Ferrieswill accept the students' currentschool ID card.•Those children, under 15,travelling with their parents, willbe included on their parents' IDcards.•Students who travel occasionallyon the ferries may usetheir parents' ID card, as long asthey bring along a covering notefrom their parents.ID cards may be obtained byresidents who are on the voters'list, at the Capital Regionaloffices at 524 Yates Street, Victoria,on weekdays.while you set up your pad andpencils and go to work is impossible.From a projected slide Patcan examine and portray thedetails which are so predominantin her work.The Gulf Islands abound withartists. Some are professional andothers enthusiastic amateurs andno doubt they sell a lot of theirwork. Most of them, however, doit as a hobby whether for sale ornot but to Pat Wright it is her solevocation and livelihood. As sheherself puts it, "you gotta eat".She has a strict discipline ofworking at least five days a weekfrom 5pm until around midnight.The rest of the day is spent onresearch or exercise and homechores. Concerning her speciallybuilt studio with a dome skylight,which becomes redundant fromNovember to March, she feels sheis in her best creative moodduring the evenings.She is giving herself two moreyears to see how she makes outand if the income and outlook areboth bleak at the end of that timeshe will, as she put it, go back tothe "salt mines".HER OWN BOSSOne of the reasons Pat lovesher work is that she is her ownboss and cannot be unionized. Ifever artists (and this excludescommercial artists such as advertisingpersonnel and fashion designers)band together and becomeunionized she would beinterested in the resulting qualityof such work.Pat has been associated with"Wild Life Review" for over 15years and that in itself is areflection of the demand andquality of her work. She wouldWORLD WAR n years wererecalled by George Maude ofSidney, who was stationed atPatricia Bay in the RCAF at thelike it known publicly how gratefulshe is for their acceptance ofher work over the. years. Sheillustrates children s books, andhas delightful drawings in the1976 summer issue of CanadianChildren's magazine.MODEST ARTISTShe is an extremely modestperson and she undervalues herart and this is evident by thecharges she imposes on her work.Samples can be seen and purchasedall year round at RegAshwell's Little Gallery inMouat's Mall.Born in Weybridge, England,Pat has been sketching animalsfrom the age of four. Years later,she attended the•Heatherley'sSchool of Art in Ifondon for twoand a half years and then went onto specialize in her love of animalsat the Frobisher's School ofAnimal Painting in Hertfordshirefor a year.One of many treasured memoriesis a safari she was on inAfrica where she spent the nightat the famous "Tree Tops" inNyeri to observe the animals. Shestayed up all night on ,thisoccasion. Her illustrious late father,Sir Charles Wright, thenmade reference to this at a laterdate and said, "She did it to gether money's worth as it was quitean expensive trip".So with her pen and ink,brushes and water colours, Pat isendeavouring to keep the wolffrom the door but if he ever comeshe will be photographed andtransposed to the drawing boardand will go down in posteritytogether with all the. other worksby the charming and unassumingPatricia Wright.time. Pictured above is the planeat its crash-site in a field nearBeddis Road in 1942.Patricia Bay man recallscrash of plane in Ganges"It was the first war-timeplane to have crashed at Gangeswithout being wholly demolished."So said George Maude, ofSidney, who dropped into theDriftwood office last week displayingtwo old pictures-of HawkerHurricane of 135 Squadron,RCAF, based at Patricia Bayduring world war two. He was inthe marine section of the RCAF atthe time.He recalled that the fighterplane was flown there by Flight/Sergeant Wheeler. It encounteredengine trouble while flying overGanges on Nov. 30, 1942, and wasforced to land in a field nearBeddis Road.The plane came down fairlvwell intact, he said, except fordamage to the wing tips and thepropellor.Faced with the problem ofremoving the aircraft from itscrash-site, the squadron deviseda unique plan by using the"boom" of the Prince Marywhich was on the islands' route.The ferry's boom was used toswing the plane from the governmentdock in Ganges, over theship, and on to RCAF barge."It was an unusual sight,"said Maude, "especially for thetown-people".The plane, he said, waseventually repaired and flew again.The Hurricanes armamentincluded eight guns, ready todefend the coast if need be.

Identified by a redribbon on their arms, the studentswill work with the naturalists,hand out pamphlets, and aid thepublic in whatever way they can.The Parks Branch welcomesall visitors to Goldstream ProvincialPark to witness the salmonspawning spectacle and asks forhelp in protecting the spawningfish. Spawning salmon and salmonwatchers are concentratedinto a very small area along theriver. Conflicts between peopleand fish occur often, invariablywith the fish losing.A loud noise, a stone throwninto the water, or someone enteringthe river may seem of littleconsequence but any one of theseevents will disturb the salmonand. as a result, spawning maynot take place.Dogs can be particularly dis -turbing to the fish. Dogs must beon leash while in the park. Betterstill, they should be left at homeor in their owners' cars.Conservation of the salmonshould be evervone's concern.A.R.HARDIE & ASSOCIATESBRITISH COLUMBIA LAND SURVEYORSP.O.

One of the top winners*was Karen Amies. In a three-waytie with Chris Grills, of GalianoSchool, were from left JamieBradley and Chris Fairweather.BROWSING ON THE PENDERSBY MRS. ELEANOR HARRISONMrs. Menzies passes awayPender Island residents weresaddened by the death of Mrs.Vivian Menzies, wife of VictorMenzies on Sunday, Oct. 24.She loved flowers and at thetime of her death, she was busyarranging the flowers from hergarden for the morning churchservice, a duty which she enjoyeddoing each Sunday morning.Mrs. Menzies was born inNew Brunswick 'in July, 1896,along with her twin brother, whopredeceased her some years ago.When a young girl, she came toSaskatchewan, to stay with relativesand taught school there fortwo years.In search of a warmer climate,Mrs. Menzies arrived in Victoria.She began teaching in the PenderIsland School on Feb. 1, 1922.There were too many pupils forthe teacher then present tohandle on her own. With only oneroom in the school, Mrs. Menziesand her class had to use thebasement, which in early springnecessitated her teaching in herprairie fur coat at times.Soon she met Victor Menziesand the young couple were marriedon July 8, 1923 and livedhappily together on Pender Islandfor the next 53 years.Until 1947 they lived on thefamily farm where Vivienne andVictor worked hard and together,eventually purchasing the farmand building up an outstandingherd of Jersey cows, which tookmany prizes at the various fairsover the years.Finally these two hard workingpeople decided to take iteasier and sold the farm toAshton Ross-Smith. They retiredto a smaller acreage at Hope Bay,keeping a number of sheep.One day a man from SaltSpring Island, Jonathan Taylor,arrived at their door to enquire ifsome of their land could be usedfor a summer Bible camp forchildren. The Menzies were delightedwith this idea and readilyagreed, and the remaining sheepwere soon disposed of. In timeMr. Taylor's place was taken byDave Griffin, who still comes eachsummer from the Canadian SundaySchool Mission to supervisethe children from all denominationsto have a happy holiday in abeautiful setting surrounded bylovely trees, birds, the sea at theirdoor and to be helped to learn thetrue values of a Christian life.As Victor and Vivienne wereso happy with the children's campon their property about 15 yearsago, they decided to give theirproperty to be used permanentlyfor the children, which has been asource of happiness and joy toeveryone concerned with it.Vivienne Menzies loved flowersand her garden was each yeara thing of beauty enjoyed by allwho passed by. Her contributionsat the Fall Fair of flowers,vegetables and baked goods werealways outstanding and wonmany prizes.She will be missed on PenderIsland but she has left on theGULF ISLANDS DRIFTWOODINFO HEALTHGOT A BAD COLD?BY DR. BOB YOUNG"A bad cold wouldn' be soannoyin' if it wasn' fur th' adviceof our friends."Most of us tend to belittle theimportance of the common cold,perhaps because colds are socommon, and perhaps becausewe know that there is little thatPenders the memory of a happyuseful Christian life, an inspirationto all who knew her.Mr. and Mrs. Walter Sidwellof Victoria spent the weekendvisiting Mrs. Sidwell's mother,Mrs. Mae Georgeson.Silver Threads Club's Octobermeeting was held in the newlounge of the Canadian LegionHall. Bingo was played and prizeswere won. Mrs. Bertha Matthewswas in charge of the bingo game.Afterwards refreshments wereenjoyed.The Senior Ladies of MagicLake Estates monthly get-togetherwas held at the home of Mrs.M. Moonie. There were 16 ladiespresent.Mr. Bert Whaley was entertainedon his birthday, Oct. '27when several of his neighboursgot together in his honor at thehome of Mrs. M. Moonie. Thosepresent were Mr. and Mrs. T.Lees, Mr. and Mrs. Asle Jorde,Mrs. B. Whaley and Miss HildaStirling.Vaccines are ineffectivewe can do about them. Colds areimportant, and in spite of thequotation above, perhaps a littleadvice is in order.Colds are caused by viruses,and there may be as many as 200different types of viruses that cancause cold-like symptoms. This isone reason that cold vaccines areineffective - no vaccine couldprovide protection against somany viral varieties.On the average most peopleseem to have two or three coldseach year. These may result inmissed work or decreased productivityat work, affecting theeconomy in general. Additionalcosts accrue in the expenditure oflarge sums of money for over-thecountercold medicines.Many serious complications,mainly in the respiratory tract,S E R V I N G P E N D E R , M A Y N E , JS A T U R N A & GALIANfD'"Wednesday, November 3, 1976can develop when a person'sresistance is depressed by a cold.Infections of the sinuses and earsare perhapstthe most common,but bronchitis and pneumonia arealso frequent and can be veryserious.So it is important to be surethat the disease that you have isreally a cold. This is particularlytrue in the case of older people, orin those who have chronic illnessessuch as heart disease ordiabetes. If you are not gettingbetter in a day or two, get help.You are less likely to catchcold if you keep your generalconditioning at a high level(exercise^, sufficient sleep, gooddiet), if you do not smoke, and ifyou avoid living or working inoverheated, too-dry rooms. Obviously,avoid people with colds ifpossible.Medicine, if used at all,should be kept simple and not beregarded as a substitute for restand fluids. Aspirin and perhaps amild decongestant may make youmore comfortable.experienced* FL00RC0VERINGSfloor layer* DRAPERIES custom made* WALL COVERINGSFor free estimates WATCH FOR STORE OPENING629-6696 R.R. l Port Washington, B.C.Save on long distance.All weekend long.Long distance discounts within B.C.on moststation-to-station calls you dial yourself (112).Minimum charge 20C per call.Monday - Friday5:00 p.m.-l 1:00 p.m.Saturday - Sunday8:00 a.m.-11:00 p.m.35%ofregular day rate.Every night11:00 p.m.-8:00 a.m.60%ofregular day rate.Spend some good timeson the phone this weekend.Without spending very much.Save 35% or 60% from5 p.m. Friday till 8a.m.Monday to most placesinB.C.So call someone who isn'texpecting to hear from you.For way less than youexpect.B.C.TEL ©
