“In the intervening years the bottle has provided

. Throughout life. the situations when one ‘reaches

“To- “take ‘to the bottle’’ is a form of speech that.
is known well enough, but the sad connotation must

_ otherwise innoxious receptacle.

BOOK CHAT

By E. PHILIP TEECE

In most libraries the section
numbered 133 is quite well pa-
tronized; in fact, its shelves are

often left almost:bare. This
section covers a multitude of
intriguing subjects; psychic phe-
and,
most popular of all, ghosts.

Typical of the fare currently
available on these shelves are
the highly entertaining works of
Hand Holzer. For more than
twenty years Mr. Holzer has
travelled about the world exe
amining the evidence of ghnsts
and the supernatural. Hs Hst
of books and his frequent appear ~
ances on television network pro-
grams have been largely respon«
sible for the growing interest in
psychic phenomena.

**The Lively Ghests of Ire-
lax?’ is one of his greatest
successes «- one of those choice
items of which patrons are us-
ually in search when they head
for that section cf the iibrarv.

A ghost hunting trip to the
Emerald Isle led the author into
some of his most delightful Cand
unusual) psychic adventures. In
the book. he reports an encounter
with the child ghost in Dublin’s
Sherbourne Hotel, a visit to a
haunted cottage whose secret lay
beneath its foundations, and the
investigations of a monastery
which contained a boarded-up
ghost room.

What sets Mr. Holzer’s book
apart from others of its kind
is his light approach; his love
of the Irish is at least equal
to his love of ghosts.

In another vein, Holzer has
written his most recent book,
“Predictians: Factor Fallacy?"
Our age of uncertainty and un-
easiness seems to have spawned
a few gencration of prophets,
people who claim to see the out-
cam? of present woridprobiems.
The rmost remarkabie of these
predictions are recorded by Hans

“ “and persist, our beaches, parks and roadsides will

A DIF FERENT VIEW

Dear Sir:

The section of your editorial |
“Project Deflated” ‘in the May
2Ist issue is but one more in-
stance of the. way the public is
being misinformed.

It is quite easy to say higher

“wages and salaries‘are the caiise

of increased prices, but te sub-
Stantiate. these. statements with
statistics is impossible.

- By studying records of pro-
duction in the majority of manu-
facturing companies, it-is found
that not onfy has productionunits

- per employee risen sharply but

the profits per unit -have also
risen to. exorbitant: totals. Ac-

cording to the Dominion Eureau

of Statistics’ figures, profits in
the 41h quarter of 1968 increased
over. the: 3rd. quarter of 1968
in: wood industry by 57.7%, elec-
trical products by 33.3%, petro-
feum industry: by 23.7%,
industries by 25.5% and rubber
industries by 111.1%. The same
statistics show that 1968 corpor-
ation profits before taxes in-
creased by 16.8% over.1967. pros
fits, wahile in the same period
labour increased by only 875.

‘In the housing industry it has
been determined that only 13.8%
of the ‘cost of a house can be
charged to labour. Land and
finances account for 41.2%, and
material costs add up to 43.9%,

The Wood .Task force . on
Labour’ Relations, in its repori
tabled in the House of Commons,
March 26th. has. made it abun-
‘dantly clear that the labour move-
ment is not to bear the barden

of blame. The report clearly
slates:
“Our conclusions about the

cause of inflation and particu-
larly about the rule of collec-
tive bargaining in the iiflation-
ars process would disappoint
those who see the labour move-
ment ax the prime candidate
for this honour, The problem
is too complex for such a sim-
plified solution,’*

PROTESTS SCHEME

Dear Sir,

Central Saanich council seems
to be forcing a sewage systemon
to the ratepayers. Surely no
responsible council members
could agree to this without a
vote being taker? Yet this seems
to be the case,

In my view a relatively smali
part of Brentwood needs this
improvement; a local improve-
ment by-law would take care of
this.

It is argued that it is toc
costly for a smali district: quite
likely, vet these same people have
got themselves into this ankward
situation. The rest of us need
it neither now or in the fore-
secadle future,

Holzer, along with his awn
assessment of their credibility.

Predictions (by seers whose
past successes are quite im-
pressive) include a nuclear war
in December 1970, a cancer cure
by 1272, and a major geological
upheaval around the rim of the
Pacific.

In our scientific era it is
regarded as superstitious to be«
lieve in ghosts, and especially
in prophets. But, judging by
the success of the library's psy~
chic section, one can safely pre-
dict that Hans Holver’s stock will
contimie to rise.

THE EDITOR” |

Doubtless. large landowners
would have the value of .their
holdings increased twenty-fold.
Perhaps the rest of us would
rather be inclined to buy them
out at.a fair price and avoid
urban congestion.

Anyway, let us
matter!

APPRECIATION

Dear Sir;

As.I finished this week's edi-
tion of your estimable little paper
1 took a minute to appreciate
its quality. When I.come home
I want to be entertained, dl
don’t want to get involved with
a fat paper fullof scare head-
lines. I find The Review just
right and .it-is.a pleasure to
find it- waiting once a- week.

You have at least four. stars.
There s a guy by the name of
Ed. Pure Gould. . He guarantees
a’ chuckle and a light-hearted
touch at seeing ourselves, Any-
one who doesn’t dig this humor-
ist-must be sick. You also have
John Windsor, a smooth, regular
performer, Nelson Dewey with
regional fun in focus° and of
course, your editor, Bert Green,
a gentleman of discernment.

Your editorials are. thoughtful
_and I congratulate you on balance,
But I don’t like everything about
the paper, Just 98%.

Best wishes to 2 good team.

P.S, I forget to mention Pat
Manning, Her interview with
Annora Brown was a classic.

young Deep Cove

I remember a number of years
ayo doing a column about a
mun, Dane
Campbell,
process of workingand adventur-
ing his way round the world. That
journey took hima couple of yéars
and in. it he crammed cnough
travel, enough . strange sights,
sounds ‘and people tu last most
men a lifetime, but not apparent~
ly, Dane Campbell. © ‘Now: he’s
busy preparing for another high
adventure trip, this one a three
months cruise round Vancouver
Island in a light weight two-.
seater kayak,

He has been building it now
for several months, utilizing
every spare hour when he is not
busy with his work as a photo-
grapher.. Overall! it is seven-
teen feet, a framework of fir
plywood and vellow cedar cover-.
ed with a double. skin of dacron’
and with a mast that can be
stepped to hold-a couple of tri-
angular sails when the wind is
somewhere inthe stern quarter.
Hc -got- the original plans for his
craft from friends in Vancouver,
modified them to meel his par-
ticular requirements, and esti-
mates that the kayak which has
been named *Kup~chah’’,. will
cost him | about ‘a hundred
and sixty: five dollars, including
the two nylon sails,

second seat will be his Danish

the lonely places. Since coming
to Canada’ she has hiked and
snowshoed and mountain climbed
in some of the most inaccess-
ible parts of our province. so she
is well suited for this present
venture, ;

“The advantage of a: kayak is
its lightness.’ Dane explained
to nie. “In bad weather or al
night, we can. carry it ashore
well out of harm's way, | [f by

is still adventure to be had for
those who have the courage to
take up the challenge.
