What
of

Thaw?
j
After
pretty
much
a
solid
week
of
It,
Prince
Rupert
"folk
are
getting
almost
reconciled
to
the
additional
routine
of
shovelling
snow
off
their
walks
two
or
three
times
a
day.
Some
were
-beginning
'to
wonder
today
what
they
were
going
to
do
when
theyhad
built
up
the
great
mounds
alongside
the
walks
too
high
to
pljf
mote
snow
on.
Others
were
thinking
If
it
would
not
be
a
good
Idea,
after
they
had
finished
the
walks,
tS
move
up
to
'
the
roof
In
case
that
might
cave
in
with
the
excess
weight
of
the'
"beautiful."
And
almost
everybody1
is
beginning
to
conjure
up
the
pic-:
ture
of
Just
how
bad
It
is
going
to
,
be
when
the

cflmes.
It
is
going
to
be
bad
enough,
everybody
agrees.

the
concensus
of
opinion
seems
to
be
now
that
this
snow
is
getting
Just
a
little
too
thick
and
the
sooner
it
ends
the
better.
The
almost
continuous
snowfall
of
the
past
week
probably
constitutes
a
record
for
such
a
short
period
In
Prince
Rupert's
meteorological
history
and,
in
spite
of
a
milder
turn
this

there
was
no

that
it

Structure
Costing
$200,000
It
was

today
that
an
offer
was
coming
through
from
the
Sisters
of
St.

to
the

to
build
a
modern,
fireproof
75-bed
hospital
costing
not

than
$200,000
providing
they
were
permitted
to
take
over
the
assets
and
rights
of
the
Prince,

The
expectation
is
that,
should
the
Sisters
take
over
the
assets
of
the
present
hospital,
the
same
site
might
be
used
for
the

to
hear
Dean
F.
M.
Clement
of
the

Interesting
address
on
the
philosophy
of
gardening.

saw
before
him.
He
had
expected
to
meet
only
about
a

or
so
at1
the
luncheon
and
here
he
found
a
large
gathering
assembled

very
short
notice.

his
life
at
the

Agricultural
College
where
they
worked
half
a
day,
several
times
a
week,
at
practical

at

j
bridge
University
from
one
of
the
j
gardeners
how
they
managed
to
get
such
beautiful
lawns.
The
reply
!
was:
"Well,
you
see,
we
rolls
It
and
i
rolls
It
and
mows
It
and
fertilizes
It
for
hundreds
of
years
and
that's
how
we

It
like
that"
Before
the

In
Russia
a
sentinel
was
seen
constantly
patrolling
up

down
.
one
of
the
lawns.
It
was
difficult
to
find
out
why
he
was
there

it
