On Speaking Teur

Currently visiting Williams
Lake while he conducts a series

ot evangellstic services at Cal-
vary Tabernacle, is Rev. Arthur
H. Townsend, who has gained
wide recognition for his book
‘Sod Busters.”’

The book is of more than
passing interest to Cariboo resi-
dents, since it deals with life in
the north.
reviewed

The book has been
favorably by
papers across the continent, and
the following is a reprint of one
of these.

news-

If your fine sensibilities are
easily shocked, do not read the
book ‘Sod Busters,” written by
Arthur H. Townsend. The
drunks and the toughs were part
of sod-busting life. The one
dish-pan in which the Towns-
ends did their dishes, baked
bread and bathed was also part
of sod-busting life.

There were dead bodies that
had to be shaved before burial,
wedding services almost beyond
belief, and meat to hunt (bear,
deer and moose) for winter use.
Sod Busters is not a book of
fiction; Sod Busters is not an
armehair story! The author ex-
perienced that which the color-

{ful Cariboo had to offer.

You will find that this factual
story goes back to the year 1920
when there was no road through
the mountains from Hope to
Merritt, and Allan Ellis drove
north to Prince George in a
Model T Ford, shipping his car
by rail through the mountain
pass. In the " hungry " thirties,
the Townsends drove north in a
Model A Ford,

Here is a book that was 13
years in the making, and there
is much of the color of the
Cariboo in it. The chapter on
“Meat Hunter" will thrill the
outdoor-lover. Some of the
stories written by Rev. Towns-
end when he broke into print
as ‘“‘ Western Canada’s Outdoor
Author,” writing under “the
pseudonym of “Cariboo King,
are in the book.

The chapter on “Life in the
Parsonage’’ will please the
housewife and bend her double
with laughter. And the en-
thralling chapter on “Sod
Busting in the Raw” will
stagger the would-be polite, pol-
ished person of mock modesty
and false pride.

Johnny Wayne and Frank Shuster, best known Canadian
TV comedy team, will call Ed Sullivan “boss” for the next year.
Sullivan, highly rated master of ceremonies on U.S. TV popu-
larity polls, has hired them to do “five or 50” shows depending
on how many they want to do. They'll not only have a free
han? to produce their own acts, but have been advised to keep
away from other showmen who might influence them to change
their style.
