The circus was brought to Prince Rupert by tin Rotary Club to raise money for the extension of the children's ward at the General Hospital. It will probably go a long way in reaching its objective. Nobody could expect the Rotary Club to bring a top-flight circus this far from the circus haunts Tiithout the cost being exhorbitant. Tickets would fcave had to sell for three times the cost to our wtizens. If the adults complained about the quality and Quantity of the acts, the children were equally a.s generous in their praise, Many of them had never t-ven seen a horse, let alone a trained bull and were thrilled at the antics of the clown, whereas in a three-ringed circus so much is going on at once they can't take it all in. To their unjaded appetites everything 'was wonderful and will be something they will remember for many years. So if you adults feel it all was a; bit tawdry and the price a bit too high', remember . your children had the time'of their lives, the hospital ' necessary.

But particularly welcome is this type of musical contribution, which, together yjth'.the annual Community Carol Sing, should serve to, remind us of the true meaning of Christmas, too often forgotten in the general aura of alcohol and commercialism of the modern YuhVfele season. Such festivals have been received enthusiastically in Canadian cities in the east and in British Columbia, for some years now.
