Fly tying material Flies tied to order Custom Rod Making Material Guns Gunsmithing --- WITH IRENE fenreeee Coast would probably not elicit raves from some people, I enjoyed a recent vacation from the dust and mud and daly grind of eternal housekeeping in Williams Lake. And any trip with a 2%-year-old can be highly entertaining as well sis exhausting. The bus trip to Ashcroft started out well, with Blaine peering out and at her fellow passengers with fascia- ation. This lasted for possibly 15 or 20 minutes, then she wanted to go home. Cramped, crumpled and weary from wrestling with a bored bundle of energy, I was unutterably glad to see Ashcroft come in view some four hours later. Boarding the train, we staggered the entire length of eight cars be- fore we came to our berth in the last one, As I undressed Elaine in the sepulehral quiet of the dim car at 11.30 p.m., her voice seemed sud- den. to boom as she eried “On a train, Mommy, on a train! CHOO! cHoo!” | Fearfully I peered at the brown Although a week's holiday at the !swaying curtains, expecting to see eyes glaring down upon us. Then “Where's my daddy?” Blaine seem- ed to shout. “Shhbhh” I cautioned. The silence rebounded with the sound of her voice. Fortunately she was a pretty tired little kid, and fell asleep after one more loud “CHOO cHOO!” I discovered in the morning tha we were esconced on a posh new Pullman made up of eight standard berths, several compartments and a number of “roo mettes:” These are tiny compartments with just enough room for a berth, a toilet and wash- basin, They cost only 75¢ more a night, and the railroad company hopes that one of these cars will re- place carrying two half-filled cars of the old style (mostly standard berths with a few compartments). I didn’t do anything terribly excit- All Set For Spring! Buy A Used Car Now For Year-round Pleasure We Have a Car Here For Every Purse and Purpose 1947 Chevrolet Sedan --- 5 : Nice and clean.

Trucks Vauxhall ing, but did see something new in the way of pictures when we took in “Under the Twelve Mile Reef” in Cinemascope. The story wasn’t much but the wide screen was impressive. giving the viewer the feeling of being right in the picture, especially in scenery shots. After the first 15 min- utes however, it was hard to remem- ber what the standard small screen was like. The sound was spectacular too, and I found my head swivelling trom side to side as the voices actu- ally seemed to issue from the place where the actor was standing. One of the biggest thrills of my coast trip, however, was-a visit to the Art Gallery to actually see Elaine's picture hanging in glory. Loudly (ior the benefit of the visit- ors who had not noticed the famous personage in their midst) I said “Look, Blaine, who is that up there?” The dull character standing beside us seemed more interested in the pictures for some reason, except for several annoyed glances he cast at Elaine and her small cousin who were running noisily through the quiet rooms. At that point it would have been hard to recognize Elaine in Edna Blackwell's charming study of her. I understand there are pictures by famous painters called Gainsborough and Reynolds in the Art Gallery too. On the way home we made a point of driving over the much-publicized new Granville bridge. But I was dis- appointed for some reason or other. Guess I expected something slightly spectacular, but the span didn’t seem much different to the now old Bur- rard Street bridge. Several new things which caught my eye were the twinkling string of lights which marked the chair-lift up Grouse Mountain (at least it was new to me); a new contraption on cars — a light that shines out of the year window and flashes red when the brake is applied, amber when it is released, and green when the ac- celerator is pressed. With this in ad- dition to the usual brake and stop lights, some cars looked like per- ambulating neon signs. And. I was amused by the cute sayings which are changed every week on signs at the White Spot’s famous eating chain. That week the sign read ‘Nobod here but us chickens, and we're be- ‘ing fried.” One of the most remarkable events was taking a bus downtown to shop in preference to driving down in my Mother's car. But after spending half-an-hour vainly trying to park within at least six blocks of the shop- ping district, and then rushing back every hour to put another nickel in the meter (a practise frowned upon by the police, they tell me) the bus seemed infinitely easier on both nerves and shoe leather, oddly enough.
