Daniel Mclvor, sainl-ly but vigorous Liberal MP from Fort William, the Softball contest between the legislators and the newspapermen has become solidly established as an annual institution of Parliament. Hut this year Rev. Dan, who is crowding on towards his own 8!nl birthday, felt some doubts about the wisdom of the fixture. He sters. He refused to consider letting down the hopes they lead built.

So there is timeliness and importance to the "j'Save a life Week" currently bein sponsored by Ht. John Ambulance. As the local members of the associationa.sk: "How many, readers of this newspaper know how to revive someone who has been pulled from the water in a nearly drowned condition? "We venture to say that not more than one or two in a hundred could do so and this is a sobering thought as we enter another summer season with its swimming- and boating dangers. Hauling a person out of the water is only half the battle and unless someone knows how to apply artificial respiration immediately, the rescue may ' be all in vain." To reduce the number who do not know, St. 3ohn Ambulance is holding njghtly classes this Myeek at the City Hall on how to save life. Its efforts in this direction are another part of the program which finds St. .John members everywhere that danger threatens. Their work is voluntary and entails many hours of teaching and applying first-aid methods so that accidents will claim fewer lives. Their motto is "To the Service of Mankind." It is an honorable one.

In reply to a query directed by the Municipal Council, Liquor Control Board Chairman Donald McGugan stated: "I would say that the Board is losing no time in covering the province, but I know that you will realize it is a big task and requires time." Kitimat is the largest community in the Province without some form of retail liquor sale. Almost any community of any size at all has at least a' LCB store, and now the government is setting up licensing areas for pubs and cocktail lounges. Understandably there are problems involved. However, serving the needs of Kitimat in this respect should have priority over those communities which already have a Liquor Control Board store.
