Luck again brought the problem out into the open in a recent address to the Chamber of Commerce, Dr. Luck flatly stated not drink Terrace water.’ A later interview with Dr, Luck did Put the matter into perspective, and allay some of the first fears, He said that his refusal to drink 3 personal protest because here is not chlorinoted. _ He also said, sensibly enough, that: if the water were sufficiently contamin-. ated to cause a real danger to health, he would immediately act in his official capacity and condemn it, This is fair enough. It is also fair to point out that the 100,000 gallons pumped people. that he would duced no the water wos the supply alluvial de bath tub. Skeena each day to available supply is chlorinated. But this is not enough to ease grow- _ing doubts in the minds of many local Terrace Municipal Council two years ago decided to chlorinote and fluoridate the water supply. Tenders were called within the past month But tenders were also called at an earlier time but pro- action. We don’t expect that drinking focal water will cause serious sickness — yet. But we do wonder at the purity of o water supply that can fishes through fire hydrants, and leave posits on the bottom of the spout Chlorination is not essential to the community. ' But it seems to be a reasonable snfe- guard against possible health hazards in the future. That's years ago, out of the what council Now it is time for action. Credit cards a menace? The credit card craze ed quite as far or fast in has in the United Stotes. But if you select your cards with care you can go just about anywhere and do almost anything without having to reach into your pocket it may even be correct, economists predict, that we are heading for the day of the cashless and cheque- less society. For example, as more business firms and banks come to rely on electronic computers, it may be possible to receive yo. r pay and spend it without ever seeing guy sign of a crisp dollar bill. All you would get is a statement of what has been automatically deposited ‘at the bank.. And the process of spend- ing would simply be communication between bank crediting money from your account ta that of the store. Yeu might stifl carry: dollars for small purchases and tips and the ike: but that would be about alt.” |“? Oné beneficial effect of. all.this would be to put purse-snatchers out of business.

A more serious problem — one that may already be upon us — is the ten- dency to spend more when all required is to hand over a card and sign your name. that is It's much less painful, than give out real money which, for most of us, has a tendency to run out every so often, ; There will always be some of us who are responsible about our expenditures, never spending more than we can afford. But for others the credit card constitutes a danger of overspending.- , And when, as a_ nation, spending more than we earn, the result Perhaps that's why it’s im- portant that we pass through the multiple credit cord system as quickly as possible and get to the pure computer the im- If the ° only alternative is the instalment plan, both this will pre- the buyer and storekeeper will have to think twice about the transaction.

A scrubber system 1s the old principle of drawing a column of smoke through a water re- servolr, Old Grand daddy's water plpe did the same thing, Condensation of the smoke pro= duces a tar product + plus the ashes in this case - and this by-product could very well be used to improve gravel roads and driveways, The details of such scrubber system can be observed on any larger factory where a lat of smoke is produced: around this area we don’t need to go too far to learn about it, Aluminum Company of Canada hossesses a very adequate scrubber system, The idea Is not new at all and the sugges- tion Is goad enough to consider ~until someone torpedoes the idea, Bill De Bruyne, “Magistrate's Court...
