Reporters at the developers
meeting with council um derstood
that homes would sell for the
$38,776 figure' and that lot's in the
subdivision would cost an
additional $9,000. Actually the
$38,776 price includes the lot.

No one was working in the shop

the blaze, he 'was unable to

He managed to savea,."coeple

The paint, oil and grease stored
in the shed intensified the fire.
Mr. Rapien said although he

skidded to a low that hasn't been touched for

accustomed to, affluence and a measure of
ease, and we weren't built to' cope with that.

practically everybody could own a house or car
or both; that there was .a job for everybody;
that we might even be able to borrow money
from the bank in a pinch.
All of these were alien to our= Canadian
experience, which had always maintained that
life was real and earnest, .that fun was almost
sinful., and that if things were going well, you
kept your fingers crossed and knocked on
wood.
