MEMBER A.B.C. Egypt ' There were, of course, important changes to be made under the revision of the Anglo-Egyiftian treaty of 1936 and possibly the order for the withdrawal of all British armed forces may not be considered -so drastic after all in spite of the DIBB PRINTING COMPANY Office Supplies, Bookbinding:, Printing, Stationery 5 Birthday and Every Day Cards X BESNER BLOCK Waterman Pens TinRD AVENUE Keep your Orders Well Ahead for our Quality Coals ! Churchillian fuss and feathers. Because British forces have been maintained in Egypt for many years is no reason why they should be kept there in perpetuity. Egypt is one of the countries which, while it may lack military security, seems to have proven capability of governing itself autonomously. The British Labor government, in this as well as other actions of late, has been exhibiting an attitude of compromise and tractibility which, if adopted by some of the other nations, might more quickly lead to 'the condition of liberty, peace and security which is .democracy's goal in the world. The safety of Suez may be protected by the proposed mutual assistance pact.

Box 1294 ver- Wants "Harbor View" Lighthouse Resident for 47 years Retired Keeper to Settle in City A retired lighthouse keeper who has s'pent practically his whole lifetime in protecting west coast shipping from grinding itself 'to death on an off-shore rock, Is 'seeking to establish a 'home In -'Prince Rupert and he wants one overlooking' the sea. "I am a seaman." says Benjamin J. Codville, a -frail 'looking man of 65 who with his wife Is shopping for a house to 'buy In the city. "I don't want. a 'home hidden behind a hill. I want one overlooking the harbor." And although he has done very little sailing, Mr.- Codville has every right to consider himself a seaman for few men have listened to the surf's roar as long as he. For the last 47 years Tr. Codville has lived In the lighthouse at Pointers 'Island, a tiny' rock 23 miles south of Ocean Falls, and for 29 of those years he has been the light keeper. Carried Out Job Assiduously He takes quiet pride In the fact that In all those years no Lllves have been lost because he or his foghorn booming when t. T ' neea arose. "It's not the easy life that some people suppose." he told ti Daily News reporter who button-i holed him and Mrs. Codville Tuesday afternoon during a spell of househunting. "You've got to be on your toes. Ood doesn't make the weather to accommodate a lighthouse keep er. You must'be alert'for weather changes all the 'time." And rarely Indeed, until now, has Mr. Codville been away from his lighthouse -during his 29 years of stewardship, and then; only on visits to nearby Bella Bella or Ocean Falls which he last visited 20 years ago,. Since going to Pointers island with his father In 1899 he was away from the district only once In, 1914, three years before 'he succeeded 'his father as light keep- erjn.1917. He visited ,Vancou- -thenr-' Although born in Ontario, Mr. Codville can claim to be one of the early residents of British Columbia, for he came to Vancouver in 18SC the year of (he 'big fire. Thirteen 'years later he moved to Kin'lslaud ! near Bella Bella, with his parents, and shortly afterward to Pointers Island, During his years on thei lonely rock he entered corresDondehee with an English girl, who came 1 to Canada to become his wife, Mrs. Codville, 'too, has claim to distinction. Champion War Knitter in 'Catiada During World War II, she admits modestly, she knitted 'more garments 'for the Canadian Red Cross than 'any other woman In Canada. During the six years of conflict, her :busy needles turned out 5,000 garments. (In recognition of her Industry she was awarded a gold 'Red Cross medal which she wears on her blue coat proudly. "I believe I knitted every'type of children's and adults' 'gar ment that It Is possible 'to 'knit," Mrs. Codville said.

Mrs. Codville has visited Prince Rupert before, and says she feels that It is her home town, because all their supplies for the lighthouse came from here on the lighthouse tender's 'Birnle and Albernif. They have, she says, a number of friends In the city, for so friendly a couple, Is reasonable to believe. Mrs. Codville recalls being In Prince Rupert In 1930 on her return home from a visit to England, She arrived In'the city on the first train to get through after the flood which devastated the railway line along the Skeena River. And now they have come to make a home in Prince Rupert but only If Prince Rupert can' provide them with the kind of home they want. It must bo xi comfortable home overlooking the sea.
