Pearson Tree Of Light Shines

The Pearson-CARE
Christmas Tree of Light, a
glowing symbol of the spirit of
Christmas on B.C.’s Gulf
Islands for the past 16 years,
will light up on schedule
December 15.

re Now a project of the Pender
-Island Lions Club but still
“under the watchful eyes of
~: George and Edith Pearson, the
<-Pearson Tree of Light is ex-
“pected this year to raise
"$10,000 which CARE will
-)translate into nearly a million
‘neals for hungry children
overseas.
«- The Tree of Light idea began
7sin 1960 when Mr. and’ Mrs.
‘Pearson decided that instead
‘of sending Christmas cards
and gifts to their many friends,
*~-they would donate the money
= “they would normally have
“~gpent to CARE for its food
~ crusade program which
‘provides a daily meal to 20
“million people in developing
~2countries. Several of their
“Lfriends joined the Pearsons in
‘their new idea that year and a
total of $102.50 was sent to
CARE providing nearly 10,000

meals to children, To com-_

memorate his friends in-
volvement George erected a
small outdoor Christmas tree
on their Pender Island
property and attached one
light for each person who had
made a donation. White lights
at the top of the tree mark
donations sent in memory of
friends and relatives who will
be missed at Christmas.

As the years passed word of
the Pearson-CARE Tree
spread, and more and more
people sent donations to
CARE through the Pearsons.
George and Edith kept in
touch with ever person who
donated, often with personal
letters battered out on a well-
worn typewriter. Each donor
receives a temporary receipt
with an official tax receipt
being later sent by CARE.

By Christmas of 1974
donations totalling more than

$7,400 were received from
more than 560 individuals
donors. So last year the

Pearsons enlisted the Pender
Island Lions Club to take over
the bulk of the work of the
project. Under the Lions the

project last year raised $8,455

Safety Of Children

: Discussed

A delegation from the
Keating Home and School
Association was a major in-
terest group and their concern
was the long standing problem
for the safety of school
children having to cross busy
Keating Cross Road.

With the departure of grades
6 and 7 from. Keating
Elementary School it was felt
the necessarily younger school

patrol could not exercise
sufficient control at that
dangerous crossing. Working

with Public Works Chairman
Percy Lazarz and Central
Saanich Police representatives,
the concerned parents came up
with the novel proposal that a
sign) with flashing warning
lights be installed over the
roadway from an arched
standard, The sign would only
be switched on during the
times school children would be
crossing. With such a warning
to motorists in effect it was
thought the younger school
patrol could cope with the
situation, Council
unanimously agreed that
proposal be tried out and
allocated the required $2,000
from contingency funds,
