Strange and _ intriguing
packages are being found in
many Canadian -pantries’ this
spring — the trusted can of pork
and beans has been supplanted
by. bags of dried azuki beans, soy
noodles, wheat germ and brown
rice! It all seems to be part of a
revolution in eating habits which
is reflected in the number of
natural food stores appearing on
Vancouver Island.

Sidney now has two health food
retailers and Brentweod: shop-
“whole
shop. Most regular
grocery stores also stock staples:
such as stone-ground wholewheat
flour. Only the long-established
downtown health food stores go in.
for remedies and vitamin pills,
the new image tending towards a
rustic homespun atmosphere.

Food faddists used to be easily
recognizable, often markedly
eccentric in clothes and living
habits and given to the chewing of
sea kelp and brewing herbal teas
in private! Now it. is all in the
open, helped by the. disen-
chantment of today’s. youth. with

products which so often are over-
refined and lacking in nutrition.

The simplicity of ‘Oriental
cooking, the macro-biotic diet
and the demand for.organically-
grown vegetables have become
topics in which every housewife

The most frightening part of
this documentary, narrated by
Stanley Burke, was the fact that
not enough is known about the
effects of chemical and biological
additives, most of which are
found in meat and bread.

IS ANYTHING SAFE?
Conflicting opinions have been
expressed by experts, editorials
have been written on the subject,
and at times there seems some
doubt. whether anything at all-is
really safe to eat. Children come
home from school refusing to eat
meat because it is not aesthetic
and fish because of possible
mercury content, leaving . the
mother little choice except eggs
and soya beans!

Conversation. overheard
recently in. Victoria’s newest
restaurant ‘‘vegetable’’ on
Blanshard: re-inforced. this im-
pression. Sitting on the upturned
lengths of tree trunk and at-
tacking brown rice patties with
obvious relish were mature (over
30) housewives and white-collar-
and-tie businessmen! Snatches of
conversation revealed that one
man ate an entire package of raw
Spinach for breakfast each
morning (he looked’ perfectly
normal). A maternal type nearby
chatted of ways to incorporate
more wheat germ and ‘brewers’
yeast -into. her unsuspecting
children.

Lassitude
Hits Council

The meeting of North Saanich.
Council got off to a late start last
Monday.

At-the regular starting time of
7:30 P.M. only two aldermen and
the Mayor were in attendance -
one short of a quorum.

Apparently Alderman George
Aylard was haying and. had
called in saying he could not
leave the field. Alderman Nell
Horth was out of-town, and ac-
cording to Mayor J.B. Cumming.
Alderman Doug Boon had asked
to be excused.

The: busiest politician’ on. the
Peninsula, .. Alderman“ Trustee
Davis finally arrived at 7:37 and
the meeting was called to order.

During the next 28 minutes, six
pieces. of correspondence’ were
dealt with - highlights being: the
receipt of a letter encouraging
participation: in Welcome-Aa-
Visitor week (already. over
before the meeting began). and
reading of the municipal policing
report (mileage on municipal
duties - 4238).

A poll of committees revealed
that no one. had anything: to
report. There was no. new. or
unfinished. business. and. no
petitions or delegations to. be
received.

The meeting adjourned to
committee of. whole (held in
camera) at 8:05-P.M. --

up a new line of manufacture for
Sidney. A contract has been
taken to build silos for the Laval
Separator Ltd. Mr. McLellan. of
that Company was.in Sidney last
week superintending the erection
of the first silo and was pleased in
the way the work was carried out.
The silos are to be built, and then
knocked down for shipment. all

40 Years Ago

Total loss was the result of a
fire of unknown origin at the fish
reduction plant of Foro Products
Ltd. of Roberts Point Saturday
evening..Of the estimated $40,000
loss about half is) covered -by
insurance. At 8o'clock no signs of
fire were visible, but in a few:
minutes the whole building was a
mass of flames. Within two hours

the plant was in ruins, and three
tanks containing a residue of oil
continued: to burn. Alfred
Crichley, acting fire chief, was in
charge of the fire brigade, which
did good. work with the aid of
residents of the district but it was
impossible to save the building.

A.spectacular. sight was the
great flare-up when a large tank
of capacity of some 1,500 to 2,060
gallons: became unfounded and
turned over into the sea; flames

or more, lighting up the country
