Godfrey Gower, retired Anglican archbishop for British Columbia, was guest speaker at the annual "oldtimers" service Thursday at St. Thomas Anglican Church. Some 115 people ranging in age from 93 down attended the traditional service, which featured, as well as the archbishop, an inter-church choir.

They recongregated afterward in the church's parish hall for a cup of tea. During his sermon, Archbishop Gower commended the elderly people of Fraser Valley for the contribution they had made to community life and suggested they should not allow young people to push them aside. He suggested that youth is getting too much publicity, and that it is not good for them, noting that only a small minority contribute to the poor reputation. Commenting on his visit to Chilliwack he said that as he drove from his residence in White Rock, he saw the snow on the hills and thought "what a wonderful place to live." Spokesman for the service's organizing committee described the sermon and service as a "real boost, an uplift" for the elderly people attending. Refreshments for the afternoon get together were provided by the Anglican Church Women for the Fraser-Cheam area parish.

Norman Crabtree's address to the Chilliwack branch of the University Women's Club. The school board chairman, who was introduced by Mrs. James Servizi, outlined the organization of responsibility for education in British Columbia and said that he feels that the locally-elected board system is preferable to organization by an appointed committee which might have little local interest or concern. Anyone wishing to see progress in the field of education must show a great deal of dedication, he said. He urged members to be alert to propose and support dedicated people for local boards.

He praised present board members for their devotion and their willingness to listen to new ideas. School board stands as an intermediary amongst the people of the area, the staff, and the students. They have as a special trust the welfare of the students. School board policy-making and administration in this district is carried out through large committees, often including trustees, administrative staff and teachers. Special services this board has undertaken include kindergartens, that are not mandatory but which serve a large number of children and the Resource Centre on Alexander Avenue which supplies teachers with laboratory supplies, special books, and services such as taping, photocopying, and printing.
