Sportsmanship of Public Asked inTheatre Congestion Members of the Local Council of Women, who met Monday at the city hall, decided to make an appeal to theatre goers to consider elderly people and children when lining up at the local theatre, and in all fairness to others to take their rightful place in line. The unsportsmanlike practice of crowding and slipping into line ahead of their rightful places by many attending the local picture house was brought to the atten tion of the Local Council by a number of soldiers from the mili taty camp who thought that this body of women might have some power to relieve the situation. The group plan ah extensive study on peace and reconstruction 1 and win oe aiuea in mis wot study courses from the department of extension, University of British Columbia. Members of the local group plan to attend the provincial council meeting November 18 in New Westminster, when the scarceness of children's shoes will be one; of the major topics discussed. A quick survey by the subcommittee of the women's regional advisory committee to the War Time Prices and Trade Board shows that more than 90 per cent of Chilliwack housewives purchased sugar on their coupons as they became valid.

In this way fruit has been saved which otherwise would have spoiled. When questioned as to what they would do with further coupons, the majority of housewives plan to buy corn syrup, molasses and honey during the winter months. It. as also noted that stores at times have little or no corn syrup in stock. Even women with small families protest against jams and jellies in small containers.

The Local Council learned that these women judged it poor economy to buy their sweets in "dribs and drabs." They were unanimous in saving up coupons until a larger quantity could be purchased. The committee again went over the possibilities of saving one ton of coal in five, by the use of weather stripping and avoidance of heating the outside world as well as the inside of the home. The local group endorsed a resolution asking for rationing of all goods on short supply. The resolution was forwarded by the Victoria sub committee of the women's regional advisory council. The sub committee of the WKAC meets once a month following the Local Council, and has the endorsement and support of that organization.
