MAKING THEIR CONTRIBUTION ?

Commendations are due to the Home Nursing Division at Kin-
naird and the Castlegar Rotary Club for the community service pro-

jects they have undertaken.

The Home Nursing: Division of the St. John’s Ambulance Asso-
ciation, Kinnaird Centre, have set-up a loan cupboard at the Kin-

naird: Improvement Society Hall.

Here anyone can borrow equip-

ment free of charge, for nursing a sick person at home. Such a pro-
ject, where things such as air cushions, bedpans, hot water bottles
and other articles which are needed in time of cslcieriess can be ob-

ed, is a

DECISION IN SPRING
By M. E.

In the spring a young .man's
fancy turns to thoughts of love,
Thus no ‘surprise was caused the
other day when a local youth: was
seen to be plucking a flower and
muttering to. himself. But his
words turned. out not to be the
traditional -ones, The poor. fool
was whispering, _Celgar is; Cel-
gar is not.”

Still, his agony should soon: be
over, By the end of the month
Celgar should have made its deci-
sion or else lost its opportunity
Rumor has it that other com-
panies are ready to step in if
Celgar backs down, In that case
more weary months of indecision
will result.
