After leaving the museum Mr. Edwards went on to view the old Doukhobor ’ Bridge and Verigin's Tomb before visiting : Selkirk College.

Arms. last. Friday evening with Book Review One Book - Two Opinions During the latter part of 1973, a very interesting book came lo the Castlegar Public Library. Itis "Mr. Noah and the Second Flood” by Sheila Burn: ford, who has several books to her credit, one of which was "The Incredible ' Journey" which won wide acclaim, Will her newest book “Mr. Noah and the Second Flood” be awarded equal praise? “Mr. Noah and the Second Flood” had an enclosure which asked to whom you would recommend this book and why. *:Two of the library's readers have endeavored to answer the question. Each presents a different viewpoint, The following are the opinions of the two readers: es By J. R. Smales T think "Mr. Noah and the Second Flood” would, probably appeal to older children from 16 to 17 years of age. Up to now he has not been interested in ecology, but through his science , courses, this new awareness ‘attending. Mr. Edwards: was introduced. to the «group by. president Jim Street.

Examples given were ‘the bird nesting records already being~ pub- lished by the museum with help from the ‘naturalists. of B.C. : Another item that could be tackled’ together is ‘the story. told by the migration‘ of birds and - other “animals «in “the province of B.C.

The young adults of janitor college age are studying many aspects of ecology and environ- ment:at a scientific level. “Mr.. Noah and ‘the Second Flood" would not be widely read by if read, I think the book. has limited reader audience for the reasons mentioned. Thinking persons care about the environ- meal, and are willing to fight the enemy—pollution. Laid upon us all, is the duty to make the world a beautiful place, as it was in the beginning. Perhaps the readers, the young teens of Sheila Burn- ford’s book, will join the crusade with the concerned citizens, to obey the unwritten laws of growth and rhyme of natural life. eo 8s By Tom Shmoorkoff T feel that. this book was excellently written and that both young and old would enjoy reading it. The largeness of print, illustrations, and title may seem childish to the adult but this combination is what makes it more enjoyable to read. The story. itself is short, precise, moving, cautionary and very ironical. It is easily read in one sitting (of no more than one hour) but it could be quite hard for younger children to enjoy it. This is because of its advanced, precise vocabulary (in parts) and also because of, its ironical humor. = It could pose some problem for a younger child to grasp the importance of this story and the message it is trying to set forth about life today. It really makes you stop and think if what we value in life (money, wealth and material goods) is really. that important and if we are taking these things for granted with- out giving serious thought to the damage caused by them on our environmental and social lives.
