SAANICH PENINSULA AND GULF ISLANDS REVIEW

Pessible Library Service Change

The everyday running of the
regional library service may be
taken over by a committee of the
Capital Regional District Board.

Brian Tobin, in submitting the
results of a regional library study
to-the Board Wednesday said it
would .be .simpler. and more
feasible if the present library
Board became a function of the -
Regional Board.

“The Library Board functions
under -agreement ‘with the
Municipalities and the city.
Every year, they have to submit
a separate budget to each of the
Municipalities.

‘Tt would be much simpler,” he
felt, ‘if they presented one

budget to the Regional Board.”

“The Department of Municipal
Affairs say this is quite feasrble
and the service to the public
would be the same.”

Alderman Elder — (Sooke)
predicted that this might even be
a way of improving the library
service. :

Mr. Tobin. noted that the
Vancouver Island Regional
Library Service had been very
successful although he did not
think they should join them. “We
want to have a certain amount of
autonomy,’’ he explained,

Chairman of the Board, Mayor
Hugh Curtis of Saanich pointed
out that the library service cowd
be established as a committee of
the Regional Board. ‘‘fhe month

. to month running of the libraries

would be left to them.”

Mayor’ Frances. Elford (Oak
Bay) said:. “I wholeheartedly
support the idea. It would greatly
assist the . Library. Board’ in
carrying out their. function.”: And -
she added: ‘‘The annual ritual of
submitting the budget to the
Municipalities is extremely. time
consuming.” -

The Board agreed to consider
the proposal.

The “‘mixi’ look won spon-
taneous applause. from students
at North Saanich Secondary
school last Thursday. while midi
skirts. were regarded with silent
disapproval!

Simplicity fashion co-
ordinator. Mrs. Albertine Mevers
told those who attended the
student-modalled fashion show.
“There. is no wrong length: it is a
matter of adapting clothes vou
already own.

Mrs. Mevers told-parents and
students that the newest fashions
are a matter of proportion--"if
the skirt is longer. the waist
should be higher and emphasized
with a wide belt.”

by Toni Hayward in a midi coat of

Another versatile outfit was the

with gaucho pants worn beneath
the wrap-over skirt modelled. by
Lydia Ralph whose complexion
suited the Scandinavian trim.

a bit of a mix-up in the morning
as she didn’t know where I was
living. She had my phone num:

phones. weren’t .working (not
unusual). However, . this < was
cleared up by my being driven te
where she was staying.

We set off for-Arles, a distance
of only about 14 kilometres. First
we stopped at’. ]’abbaye de
Montmajour, 10th. century. We
gave this a good going. over,
climbing. a. “couple of hundred
steps. to the: tower; descending

into the cloitre, and even going so -

After having thus recovered

the equivalent of a loaf of or-

chair.

Mr. Riddell said that there had
been a change in council mem-
bers. C.F. (Check). Webb has
resigned and Dr. Hart Scarrow
was appointed. Dr: Scarrow is the
planning director for the council.

Treasurer Jim © Thomson
reported a record membership of
126 people. a definite upswing
from 86 in 1969.

Health and Welfare chairman
Mrs..H. Knudson reported that
there have been no calls for the
first-aid equipment this year. A
tank of. oxygen is placed at
Porlier. Pass Marina with Mrs.
Hume for emergency use.

It was decided to send letters of
protest about the smells coming
from Crofton Pulp Mill, to see if
anything could be done.

Dr. H.. D. Barner. roads

reported that’ he and the

president had an informative talk
with officials in Victoria, and
because of Government. cut-
backs, and ‘some delays in an-
nouncing policies, road allot-
ments for. Galiano didn’t begin
until too late in September ;. also
there was some talk of poor
blacktopping on.the North Road.
It is rumored that this ‘‘peor job”’
will be redone next year, opening
up a discussion about whether it
will be the allotment for 1971 and
no new blacktopping, or whether
it. will be done along with more

for next year.

‘It. was: also-noted that a: small

‘portion of blacktop came. to the
