A Shared Experience ODAY is the beginning of Young Canada’s Book Week. This is a week in which special efforts will be made throughout the country to impress on chil- drén the value and enjoyment of good reading. It is a week which, in a certain sense, is dedicated to their future, for a child who becomes fond of books now has discovered a source of lifetime pleasure and ingpiration, ‘ While the occasion is supported actively by scHools and libraries, its significance is not always injlerstood by the community as a whole. To correct thks, the sponsoring Canadian Library Association hag circulated a pamphlet giving the following pur- poses of Book Week: ’ To encourage more reading of more worthwhile bodks by more children at home, at school and at the library. ‘ To remind adults of the importance of a child’s eohtact with the best books. : To make parents aware of the books available ang of the pleasure that comes from books shared with their children. A shared book is a shared ex- pekience, a shared experience strenthens family ties, ‘ To stress the need for more books for children in every community. ‘With good books children enjoy a true sense of values, a mastery of words, an understanding of people, and experience which anticipate those of real life,” the Library Association observes. “Read good books aloud to savor’ their zestful humor, to see with their breadth of vision and to relish new words. “Best of all is the rich warmth of heart and spirit that comes with sharing a book’s sheer fun and enjoyment.” During the past few days Prince Rupert school children finished writing their book reviews for the competition which is held in connection with Young Canada’s Book Week. It is safe to say that a large percentage of these children have derived a great deal of satisfaction from’ what they have done, whether their work is in the prize-winning bracket or not, In both the reading and the writing there was bound to be a stimulus which many will wish to. ex- perience again. In this manner their appreciation of hooks has been increased, or perhaps in some cases awakened, and so they enter a richer life. A Form of Health Insurance EGINNING Monday, Prince Rupert householders B will receive in the mails envelopes containing brightly colored stickers, or seals, designed in a Christmas motif. These seals make attractive decor- ations on Christmas mail and parcels; they are sent the world over, afid carry a singular message. The message is carried by the insignia which appears on all the seals—the cross. It is a symbol of a great crusade against an insidious and stubborn enemy that still claims the lives of more than 3,000 persons in Canada annually. The seals are a reminder to us all that we must take a part in this crusade against tuberculosis, so when the seals come to our home let’s put that dona- tion in the self-addressed return envelope and mail it immediately. The Prince Rupert Soroptimist Club, which has undertaken the annual TB seal campaign here for the B.C. Tuberculosis Society has set its objective at raising $2,800. Money raised in this way makes possible pur- chase of special case finding equipment, equipping clinics and health units, public and professional] edu- cational projects, rehabilitation and many more activities from which we all stand to benefit. Every purchase of Christmas seals spells addi- tional prevention frem tubereulosis for each of us and the community at large — it is anything but charity to give to this cause; it is a form of health insurance that benefits us all. age authorized as second class mail by the Post Office Department, Ottawa See It by os co more Pt ibpolt As | f eS Calling All Quilts SORRY I won't be home in time to hear the speech by Vancouver's famous native born au- thor, Oliver Philpot. | Expect to be soaking -in the famous hot pool at Radium when my namesake addresses the Vancouver Institute at UBC Saturday night Nov.
