will respect the former, and
he shall rise to dizzying

Pardon me, but — bunk!
Let's follow that line of
reasoning for awhile. Im-
agine the following scene:
Adolphe Hitler and. Jesus
Christ show up one night at

dinner. Adolphe is hand-
somely attired in a new $300
Pinstripe wool-worsted suit,
a pair of neat suede shoes,
and an expensive tie with a

tidy Windsor knot. Jesus, in
contrast, sports only a simple

character nothing — Jesus

(YOUR STARSTHIS WEEK /

Vitality marks the com-
ing week, particularly
toward week's end when
the many aspects of in-
tense activity come to-
gether to create an unusual
pattern of success. Those
who become confused
working on several proj-
ects at once may not find
the next few days enjoy-
able; those who take ex-
citement from the chal-
lenge of attempting to fit
more than sixty minutes
into every hour will thrive
on the coming days. Chil-
dren may find themselves
in position of leadership
this week; both-the times
and the actions suit them,
Problems occurring early
in the week must be met
immediately. To put them
off until time or inclination
is ripe could well be to
forfeit a week’s gain.
Friendships that have been
boggling lately in. the face
of boredom take a new
lease on life this week as
parties involved get in the
swing of being mutually
helpful.

| Pulpit & Pew

With Rev. TED BRISTOW

For me, one of this sum-
mer's pleasant surprises was a
visit from some dear friends 1
hadn't seen for several years.

Liland Bill became more or
less my substitute parents
when I was a young school
teacher, way back in the early
60s. I spent many a happy
evening in their always-crowd-
ed kitchen, drinking’ their cof-
fee, talking about the woes and
joys of teaching; Lil and Bill
always trying to get me to

I's not just a matter of
teaching a certain curriculum,
of showing students how to
read and drilling the times
tables, and introducing them to
the wonders of science and of
literature.

Teachers pass along to
their students not only facts,
but themselves. That's one
reason teaching is such a de-
manding profession—a teacher
wants to be in top form,

think and talk about

else for a change.

They thought I worked too
hard. Young schoo] teachers
usually do work too hard, of
course, It’s difficult not to.
Teachers new at the game need
someone like Lil and Bill to get.
their mind onto something else.

-Back to this summer's
visit.

! Bill made a point of com-
menting to me, “You know, you
really left an impression on our
children.” (I had been principal
of a schoo! their family attend-
ed.)

I hesitated momentarily,
then asked the obvious ques-

tion, “Was it a good impression ~

or a bad one?" Bill smiled
slightly, and assured me it was
a good one.

Teachers ‘do leave impres-
sions on the children they
teach, don’t they?

Time to Spruce Up Fall Driving

Kids, kids, kids—they’re
back to school this week. And
by foot, skateboard and bicycle
they will be travelling British
Columbia streets and high-
ways.

More than 500,000 public
school students, from kinder-
garten to Grade 12, returned to
school on Wednesday.

Motorists are reminded
that children’s

der is also a reminder to
motorists to spruce up fall

extra care is needed when
driving in school and play-
ground areas, or wherever stu-
dents may be walking . or

intendent of Motor Vehicles,
said the back-to-school remin-

-: Latest in

. give way to pedestrians wheth-

the’ morning, at lunch-hour and
after school.

Where warning signs are
posted about school children—
in school zones— with a
km/h tab mounted below, moto-
rists must slow down and ob-
serve this speed from 8 a.m. to
5 p.m. Monday through Friday.

In playground areas, the
same 30 km/h speed must be
observed from dawn to dusk,

Yellow school buses are
also back on the road—watch

drivers, must ensure that all
passengers, six and over, are
wearing seat belts when travel-
ling in a vehicle where seat
belts are available.

“It is the responsibility of
the vehicle driver to ensure
that youngsters, aged six to 15,
are wearing properly-adjusted
and fastened seat belts.

“While motorists are re-
minded to watch for students
and practice safe responsible
motoring, parents are also

tions.”

This time of year motorists
must also watch for, and obey,

First Aid

To be Seen at Meet

When an accident happens
in industry, immediate atten-
tion is needed and the person
they look to is the industrial
first aid attendant on the job.

+ This person has been train-
ed in what to do to ease pain
and prevent further compli-
cations, as he or she has taken
an industrial first aid course. It
is interesting to note that even
a doctor or registered nurse is
not qualified to practice in-
dustrial first aid without this
special training. Even hospitals
have first aid attendants.

‘ There are over 10,000 of
these essential people in Can-
ada, and over a quarter of this
number are members of the
Industrial First Aid Attendants
Association of B.C., the only
association of its kind.

On Sept. 15 and 16, the
association is holding its 38rd
annual convention in the Pen-
ticton Peach Bowl. The pro-
gram is packed with lively and

informative sessions to bring
members up to date on the
latest developments in the first
aid field.

Among the highlights ‘of
this attention-getting program
are: the address of welcome by
His Honor Mayor Al Kenyon of
Penticton; a display and lecture
on procedure by the super-
vising coroner's department of
B.C.; a search and rescue,
demonstration by the provin-
cial emergency program peo-
ple; how helicopters handle and
load patients;

The “Jaws of Life" in
operation by the Penticton Fire
Department. This apparatus
was used just recently to save a
man trapped in a truck cab on
the Port Mann Bridge. It can
tear a car apart in minutes;

An illuminating talk by
Brian Summers on the dangers
of hydrogen sulphide and on
safety on oil rigs is also on the
program schedule. |

No-Strike Record Went
Up in Smoke Over Ban

A showpiece factory's no-
strike record in Runcorn, Eng.,
went up in smoke when the
entire work force walked out
because of a ban on smoke
periods. ~

Production stopped at the
Japanese-owned YKK zip fas-
tener plant near this Cheshire
town and seven trouble-free
years ended, But the workers
returned to work next day after
negotiations between labor and
management,

The trouble flared when
English supervisors at the $4.3
million plant told workers their
breaks for a smoke would be
discontinued in order to boost
production.

“They offered everyone a
package of free cigarettes a
week if they would give up
snioke breaks,” said an off
of the Transport Workers’
Union. “Then they offered up to
$2.18 a week extra pay instead
of the smoke breaks—even to
non-smokers, Our members are
not interested in the money—
they want the few minutes’
break from the production line.
