~ REVIEW STORY
TRAVELS FAR

‘A report in The Review a few
weeks ago dealt: with the meet-
ing. between a Sidney. resident
and an old school-mate. F.C,
“Allen of Beacon Avenue met up
-with H. C. Lutes.of Seattle, 53
years after they had been at
school together. in Moncton, N.B.

It was learned this week that
‘the family of the Seattle resident
heard the report; Mr. Lutes’ son
at Aklavik, N.W.T., by radio, and
his daughter in a newspaper. The
son. when listening to the radio,
only heard part of the report and
sent a telegram home to ascertain
that all was well.

It seems that reports in
Review reach far-off places.

ing work of the Sidney firemen,
a great portion of Sidney's busi-
ness area might have been lost.

no one questions the
value of the fire fighting foree
to Sidney and the whole North
Saanich area, the task of finane-
ing the brigade seems to be more
difficult all the time. A hand-

Association was recently acknow-

money has. proven little more
than a drop in the bucket. when
the crying need is considered.
