- Centennial Theme

= British Columbia’ s third variation ona centennial theme has been
launched with a mighty flourish both at home and abroad. :

It may be depended that Premier

W.A. Cc. ‘Bennett will orchestrate on:

the grand, ‘scale’ when he seeks to command the attention of the
“populace. ‘Fanfares on the trumpets and salvos on the drums are the
: order of the day. None can ignore the power ofhis appeal.

The number who watched on video the Pasadena Rose Bowl Parade
and doubtless admired the province's colourful. entry cannot be

the complete- reunion of a corporate body of men. after a 20-year in-
terval must: be. considered : ‘something of a rarity. eee

This. unusual feat ‘was accomplished Monday ‘night prior to the
inaugural meeting of Central Saanich council, when the first council to
be elected after. the secession ‘of the former Ward Six from Saanich

IN EXPLANATION |

Editor, The. Review, Sir:

In rebuttal to Mr. U. Smith’ s
kind comments. on Christmas
_Day. Breakfast opening at the
Sidney hospitality centres.

As. Chef-.De~ Cuisine: at ‘the
Sidney Airport Travelodge, first,
I would like to remind Mr. Smith
that insofar as I know, Christmas
Day is a holiday, particularly a
Children’s Holiday and for this
reason our staff was given the
morning: off. to celebrate it as
such .with their respective
children. —

Mr. Smith may not be aware of
the fact though, that I personally
was on duty thatiday at 9:30a.m.

some of. our. guests who had the
intelligence to request meals .or

service in their rooms.

Unfortunately some look only

‘to their own convenience on these
-particular times but maybe I am

in error, of course, any guest to.
my, own- home whom I have not
been able to accomodate due to
space, and that had to sleep out,
always.came and dined all three
meals at my. table, inconvenient
or not.
