MacNAMARA Deputy Minister ERIC NORDIN — Robson Jewellers — WATCHMAKER & JEWELLER 1007 ROBSON STREET — PAclfic 8474 — After the long miserable win- i ter we just left behind us, which more or less slowed down our building aotivities, the pro-ject around the Rest Home also had its set-back, especially m lost time. But now with spring in the air once more, the inter-est and activities at the Home have advanced to a higher ae-gree than ever before. The everlasting financing problem, committee work in many fields, and finishing of the Home, are matters which at the present time keeps everyone busy, ei-ther one way or another. We have at the present time good news for all the Swedish Press readers. You all know, that about two years ago the the estimated cost of the Rest Home was set at approximately $86,000. Anyone with any knowledge in construction work will agree that under the past and present conditions, it has been almost impossible to keep the cost of a construction pro-ject within the limit of any reasonable estimate. At the Rest Home we had the same | experience; the ever increasing prices in materials required on adjustment in our estimated building cost to approximately 40 per cent increase. This of course was another stumbling block in our way, but, as our slogan always has been “Bar-ricades are there to be over-‘ come”. The Board of Directors and the Building Committee got together; plans were laid out, torn apart and again put into effective helpful equipments which enabled us to see the light in increasing our financial resources through low paid in-terest loans, more donations and a quizz contest draw which will be held July 15. Now friends, when you see these tickets heading your way, do not run away, it is just a | sensible way to hélp the thing I along — many hands will do an easy job. For the priice of one dollar you will gain admis-sion to the park July 15, and have an opportunity in winning a 1949 Monarch four-door Sedan automobil, refridgerator, an Electro-Lux Vacuum cleaner, and twelve other prizes. I want to remind you that you do not need to be present at the draw in order to wm a prize, as long (as your name and address is । clearly marked on the stub, the I Committee will attend to the । rest. | We also speeded a delegate to Victoria to see our honour-able friends in the parliament, we asked them for another handout on account of increase in prices of materials etc., etc., so they said “Sure we will do our best. How about $11,300?” — above our previous grants. Our delegate said thanks and which your organization has been founded and is operating, namely to spread the culture and ideals which you brought with you from your homeland, and also to help in a small but noble way to create a decent living conditions for our senior citizens, and remember, this institution will still be in exist-ence when we and our childrens children are growing old. Let us show the authorities of this great country of Canada, what we expect as a respectable living conditions for elderly peo-ple. As a token of appreciation for donating $250 towards fur-nishing a room in the Rest Home, the name of your organization will be engraved on a plate to be hung in the room stating that the furniture has been donated to the home by you or your organization. The Swedish Canadian Rest Home Association is not a sec-ret organization, therefore I will in this connection explain to the readers of the Swedish Press how it is possible for elderly folks of Swedish birth and of Swedish descent, regard-less of place or country of birth, to apply for tenancy in the Home, which will be open for occupation in a few weeks time. Send for application forms to the Swedish Rest Home Ass’n., Lynnmore P. O., North Vancouver, B. C., and our Committee will forward forms to you which you can fill out and mail to the above mentioned address. We have an investigating committee, which in cooperation with the Board of Directors, will grant your application to the best of their ability, giving preference of course to the needy ones. _ The rate for admisision to the Home has been set in such a way that an old age pensioner may be admitted on whatever he is able pay out of the $40 a monrth pension he is receiv-ing from the government. Even a destitute person is not barred from the Home, but the maximum monthly rate is set at $60 per month. This is to be understood, that the Management of the Home has the opportunity at all times to apply • to the welfare organizations in our district, and to the Municipalities, and the Privincial governments for grants, to fill the balance be-tween the amount you are able to pay and the maximum rate of $60 per month. With the present high cost of living, especially in starting out with the operation of the Home, $60 per month is con-' sidered a reasonable rate.

If you are interested in figurs I will let you know how we stånd regards building cost and governments grants. The final building cost is estimated at $120,000. One-third of that amount, or approximately $40,-000 is to be forwardad in gov-^nmlnt grants- In addition to the above figures we have the furnishing of the Home to at-tend to. Here is were the Swedish organizations in British Columbia will have the privilesee of doing their part in a very outstanding way: It is just in hne with the ideals under cessary in the future, well, it will be easy to ad just then, ac-cording to experience gained in the past of operation of the Home and according to the cost of living at that time.
