The theremometer tok a drop Tues-
day morning after breakfast and the
first cold snap of the season was just

degrees-nbove zero and a dirty east
wind was blowing. At Smithers it-war
reported ten below zero Tuesday. a.m

tions held by the Professional Engin-
eers Association of B,C."

The promised cold snap that peeked
avound the corner Tuesday. morning,
was. not like ‘prosperity just around
the corner”, the cold snap came right
around with its chest. sticking out and
wanted to know. ‘what ‘about ity”? It
was around a dozen degrees below zerc
at 8.30 aam. and no particular sign of
moderating. . But the silver lining is‘a
little sunshine every day, something
‘|sadly missing since last _ August, with
very few breaks.

A scientific menu for five people for
a week has been’ published, and the to-
tal cost per week for a man and his
wife. and three children is 6.06%¢ aud
that provides for buying everything.
In a country like this where everyon
has their own vegetables, gather much
wild fruit and generally have their own
chickens, and many have a pig or so
and some have’ cows, the cast can b¢
cut considerably, and a greater varia-
tion “given to the menu. The menu
published in the Province Jnst’ Satur-
day is a good wholesome one and does
not vary a great deni from what the
average person enjoys.
