Waterfront Property
Owners Meet

There was a meeting of lake front
property owners held in the Com-
y Hall recently in an effort to

Mr. Zirul of the Water Rights

Branch statéd that the extreme |

height of the dam would be some
three inches lower than the present
lake level.

Also discussed was the debris in
the lake from the Blackwater mill.
Mr. MacMyn, represéntative from the
Fish and Game Board, said that in
his talks with the management of
the mill, he had been assured that
‘ogs would no longer be bucked in
the lake, and that a forced draft
emi was being installed in the
burners, which would take care of

the charcoal and shavings nuisance. ;

Residents along the lake were con-

While a fair number of those at-
fected by the height of the lake at-
| tended the meeting. there were some
who were not notified, and othe
who were told on the very day of the
meeting. Some people present were
under the impression that it
| meant to be a closed meeting with a
| hand-picked audience, but the or-
ganizers firmly denied this. The
method of holding these meetings,
| however, points up the need of form-
| ing an organizion such as a Board of
; Trade where matters concerning a
Jarge part of the community could be
properly dealt with.
THE Lac La Hache Stockmen’s |
Association held a meeting Monday |
night. There were representatives
present from the Forest Service and
the Cariboo Cattlemen’s Association.
A resolution was sent to the C.C.A.
urging. a change in their constitu-
tion to permit all directors of the
C.C.A. to be elected by local associ-
ation, with representation being bas-
ed on number of members and num-
bers of cattle. ,

HOW MANY MINUTES PER GALLON?

Of course, you don't have to make
gasoline yourself. But you do have to
work at your job to make the money to buy
gasoline. And today you don't have to work neatly
as long as you did in 1939, or even 1946,

Back in 1939, the avetage Canadian had to
work 33 minutes to earn enough to buy
@ gallon of gasoline.

Seven years later, in 1946, the same
Canadian had to work 29 minutes to earn
enough to buy a gallon of gasoline.

Today he has to work only 17 mihutes-
about half as long as in 1939 -to buy a gallon
of gasoline.

(I's much bether gasoline, too. Two gallons
of today's gasoline does the work of three
gallons made in the 20's.)
