A TIME FOR REFLEC.

“What's going on out
there?” Yes. I mean you.
Mr. and Mrs. Average
Canadian. What are we
doing to ourselves? What are
we becoming? Yes, | mean
you my fellow readers.

I'm sure we have all given
up the ghost on inflation, the
high cast of living, unem-

- ployment statistics, and [ am

sure we are all equally
afraid of the future, Have we
as a people last hope?

No! Never let it be said
that we ceased to relish the
zest of struggle.

What is hope anyway?
Why, midst all the wonderful
opportunity in our clean,-
hygenic, sterile en-
vironment, are people al
their wits end. Trying to cope
with the art of living, or is it
survival? Have we educated
our minds and our bodily
senses to new exotic heights
and pleasures and
somewhere on the way lost
the whole purpose of living?
Are we in danger of
replacing the purpose of
man's being by technology
and when technology im-

-puses limits and horizons we

the
such

refuse to accept
discipline of
limitations.

How do we solve it then
you may ask? Where do we

are so smart, how would you
solve it or even begin to solve
it. Being of puritanical ex-
traction and a hopeless
oplimist may I suggest a few
answers.

When a problem arises the
first question one has to ask
is ‘Has this preblem or
condition ever existed
before?” If it has how was it
solved and is there a record
of the approaches used.
Many of the conflicts facing
we mortals have happened
before from affairs of the
heart, broken love, affairs of
state. A man in his sixties
was once asked. Why! how
have you managed to
prevent your hair from going
gray? In the modern idiom
one would expect “Only my
barber knows for sure.‘t The

man lvoked rather wistfully
and replied, ‘‘Well I’ve been
successful in giving my gray
hairs to other people.’ A
trouble shared is a wurry
spared.

The handbook on the
human condition lies dusty
un so many shelves and we
have educated ourselves to
believe that the cuncepts of
this silly old book has no
relevance. Many “Of the
problems we face | are
outlined in its pages, and
many uf the solutions if we
would only be guided by the
instruction of the words
contained within the sacred

pages.

Politicians won'l change
the human conditions but
they can aggravate peuple
by creating false ex-
pectations which create the
enigma. To change the
subject from the sublime to
the ridiculous, have you
noticed how November
keeps acreeping upon us. No
the leaves are not turning
brown, but Jolliffe com-
plimentsthem. Jolliffe fights

‘with Maroney in public.

Thom announces community
plan. Thom lashes out at the
spending he created.’ Thom
fights with Terrace. Thom
wanls to tell us where we are
going but for the past years
doesn’t know where we've
been. Amazing the terrible
things Nuvember .does to
political aspirants who

‘suddeniy forget and sellle

down if elected into the abyss
of the ivory tower and keep
on doing the things that got
the people mad at them in
the first place.

Citizens awake - and
sharpen your wits before
sharpening the pencil to

VANCOUVER (CP) — A
grotesque, sealeless 384-
kilogram sunfish has been
caught off the west cuasl ux

fishin’ for tuna off of
California but never up

his catch Wednesday.

But Dr, N. J. Wilimovsky,
curator af the fish collection
at the Universily of British
Columbia Animal Resource
Ecology Centre, said the
sunfish is found in temperate
and sub-tropical waters
throughout the world.

However, the fish is nut
often found in fish collections

’ because of its size, said

Wilimovsky.

toria.
