They learn the arts of home-making and often the rudiments of their trade at sjhool. Their health habits and pnysical condition are the concern of government employees. Their recreation is mostly supplied by group activities both in and out of school and to a certain extent by commercialized recreation. Their training in Stories of the courage and suffering undergone by yminp Christians stirred the congregation. A young mother recovering from1 leprosy, though physically handicapped by the loss of toes, volunteered with her still -suffering husband and their young son to work in a distant settlement Another couple went back tc their native village even after "I am not asking for money," said Peter Lien at the concert in the Civic Centre Friday evening. Perhaps not, but there are many who have a suspicion that occasional cash contributions to the Shrine Band will be far from unwelcome. The band is already a local asset of outstanding popularity and value.

Unfortunately, many people, in the pursuit ofr,llTeir daily avocations or pleasures, give little enough thought to the subject of education. Many of sych thoughtless people, we fear, are even parents of children to whom education is a matter of direct ' interest and should be regarded as such. Possibly, , a great many of us are taking the mafter of education a little too much fongranted, not realizing-that it is something requiring most careful direction, organization and execution. Our dqlhirs and cents, too, are directly concerned possibly, more dollars and cents than on some other articles and services which we purchase and to which oftej? we give a good deal more time and attention. So it is well that our interest should be focusseel as it will be. this week on this matter of education, the ramifications of which extend more deeply and widely than we may realize in cursory thought. DEFENDERS OF PRINCE RUPERT SHH Western Members of Parliament as General JPearke of Nanaimo and Howard Green of Vancouver --Quadra have been consistently pound-ing .at the importance of defences of the Pacific Coast which they see as being highly vulnerable area in any future conflict which might occur. The gpftftrnment has not been admitting much concern about its interest in the matter but probably it has been" listening and intends to do something about it. And, when we talk of Pacific defences and of vulnerable areas, we can think of none more so than rigljf here at -Prince Rupert-!.' The perilous situation in this theatre should spur, even more effectively such projects as an air field for Prince Rupert, better and more consistent highway facilities, port organization, railway ser-viet:and coastguard which we have been contending are;;.also economic necessities.

THE SHRINE BAND E VERY TIME the Prince Rupert Shrine Band, l which s really the city band and deserving of support as Such, makes its appearance it demonstrates increased proficiency. Indeed, it has now b 'come a well rounded out and finished musical ' tfVoup of which the city may well be proud and which je are fortunate, indeed, to have. Bandmaster Peter len and all concerned are to be congratulated on t$e splendid concert they put on Friday night. It 'ilsonly too bad that it should have fallen on such a Imsy night and in such an active week. Otherwise, there .would, doubtless, have been a much larger attendance and greater expression of public approval. The Shrine Band, as it is known today, originated as the Reserve Army Band here in 1942. It wis then attached to the Prince Rupert Machine G$n Regiment. After demolition the band was re-fVmed into the Prince Rupert Civic' Band and three yars aoo they came under the colors of the Shrine C(ub- Today the Band numbers 30 pieces and is ably lqfl by their versatile conductor Peter Lien.
