B. A. MORGAN, with a carpenter, was up several days last week hay- ing improvements made on” his property, east end of Mahood Lake. Mr. Morgan also met the members of the Jolly Hours Club at tea at the home of Mrs. B. Spencer McNeil, to give them, at their request, certain information on pianos. This gesture was much appreciated by the club members. MR. and MRS. R. D. BAKER, of Standard Oil, are on their annual vacation at MeNeil Ranch.

JUNE and KATHY, daughters of --- WITH IRENE New Westminster — After trying] we had seen the last of any bad road all summer to get down to the coast’ —only to hit about 10 miles between for a visit, and after giving up all Chilliwack and Abbotsford that was hope, and after finally ceasing to throw out hints to the editor that he should drive’ me down — he caught me completely unawares last week by suggesting a weekend at the coast. After I had recovered from the shock, it just sort of occurred to me that it was a shame to rush back so quickly. So here I am, all set to kick up my heels in the big city —,as much as one can with a two-year-old in tow, that is. Our trip down was uneventful this time. No flat tires and the mut- ler actually stay- ed together. In- § stead of going right through we broke the trip half way and stay- ed overnight at § Boston Bar. We were amused by a sign at the auto court — ‘Please walk on the grass. That's what we have it for!” The stretches of road construction seemed fewer and farther between than we had remembered on our last trip.

TV We first encountered TV when we stopped at Chilliwack for morning ogee. Every coffee shop and appli- ance store was crowded with peepers grouped around to watch the World Series on television: I could have quite happily stayed for a few hours, half-fascinated by the Series and the other half by television itself. As we continued towards New Westminster the television aerials became more numerous, a forest of: futuristic antennas reaching to the! sky. Most amazing to°me somehow was the sight of one perched on the small brown house opposite my mo- ther's. | ~We visited my cousin’s home that same evening and they too boasted a TV set. I had heard stories of people visiting friends and spending the entire evening watching Ty — hardly exchanging half -.a- dozen sentences. It seemed an unfortunate state of affairs — the art of conver- sation would soon be a thing of the past. But there is no-denying the fas- cination of the moving screen. Even though our host and hostess offered several times to turn it off, we kept watching one more play — even one more commercial — until somehow it was 10:30. The plays were old moving pictures that wavered and wiggled at times as though the ac- tors were doing a hula dance. We were even treated to a few minutes of zig-zag patterns until the picture appeared again. Coast viewers can receive only the Bellingham station on poor nights. Better programs and a clearer pic- ture come from Seattle when the re- ception is good. SCENERY I have always thought the fall was a beautiful sight at the coast with the maples turning bright red. But it isn't a patch on the Cariboo. I never noticed until now that a slight haze (possibly smoke) covers the countryside here and the colors veem dull and flat. The maples are still a bright red, but.there doesn’t seem very many of them. I am probably boring everyone to tears with my glowing descriptions of our countryside, but I am not exaggerating. When we drove down the highway last Thursday, the yel- low poplars were such bright splotches of color against the ever- greens and small lakes of blue water, as to be almost unbelievable.
