Fish
One of the largest salmon ever
caught in Saanich Inlet was landed on
Tuesday afternoon, when B. C. Gil-
pin, of Viking, Alberta, hauled in a 51-
pounder near MacKenzie Bay. He
was fishing with his brother; C. T. Gil-
pin of Vancouver.
They were using equipment rented
from Harry Gilbert. At the time the
fish hit, the brothers had stopped the
boat and 250 feet of cotton line was
hanging straight down in the water.
Before starting their engine they de-
cided to reel in and thought the hook
had caught bottom.
While his brother held the rod B. C.
Gilpin reeled in the big red spring and
after a struggle the fish was gaffed
and landed. It was taken on a No. 7
superior spoon using 'six ounces of
weight.—Clipped from Victoria, B C

PHIL OSIER OF
LAZY MEADOWS
By Harry' J. Boyle
The atom bomb popped off out
there at Bikini and we're still here. At
least we think we're still here. I saw
Tim Murphy on Monday morning and
he said, "I wonder if we're all dead
and don't know it yet." Big Peter Lar-
sen waiting for the bather shop looked
up and in his droll Scandinavian way
said, "If you were dead you'd be shov-
elling by now Tim." ,
Folks around here were kind of ner-
vous about the thing being exploded.
There were a lot of funny stories go-
ing around. People kidded each other
a lot about it, pretending to be just
fooling, but when you hear ,folks doing
that it's a pretty good sign that they- re
not resting too easy about it in their
own minds.
Waiting for chop one day a
people .were complaining about the
slowness of the old Diesel. They were
suggesting atomic power, That in it-
self was indicative of the way they
were thinking. Most times internat-
ional affairs and events don't bother
people around here very much. They
can toss the scariest headline in favor
of how the crops are doing or whether
there's enough sun for good corn wea- . then
As the days came along and the
zero 'how' got closer and closer you
could notice a sort of tension amongst
people. The widow Mallory,said that,
men cattle in and paid up the interest
on their mortgage without the least bit
of reluctance. That two of them had
been in arrears tor about three years,
She's getting up in years so that the
thought of art atom bomb doesn't dis-
turb hefvery inttch. Just fire same she
was grateful for the United States
having staged it at this particular time,
As' she said, "it saved me a lot of 'law-

Mrs. Leon Moss and children, of
Elmira, N.Y., are spending some time
visiting at the homes of Mr. and Mrs.
Anson Galbraith and Mr. and Mrs.
Reg. Newton and other relatives.
Mr. and Mrs. Percy Roseborough of
Owen Sound spent the week-end with
the latter's father, Mr. James King,
also her brother, Mr, Walter King.
Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Short and
children of Fergus were week-end
visitors with relatives in town.
Guests at the home of Mr. and Mrs.
Kenneth Hastie on Sunday were. Mr.
and Mrs. Alex. Hastie and children,
Walker Hastie, Donald and Heather,
all of Toronto; Miss Jessie Elastic, R.
N., of Philadelphia; Mr. and Mrs. T.
J. McDonald, Molesworth; Mr. and

couple of days last week with Mr.
Tom and Miss Beatrice Shearer, near
Wroxeter.
Mr. Harold Kiel was in London last

Tommy Hastie spent last week with
vices.
A fellow can admit it now, hitt fan-
tastic as it may seem, I guess we were
all afraid of the corner blowing off the
earth leaving it a bit lopsided so that
it might just happen to jump off the
track. The fear of the unknown is a
terrifying thing. •
We sat glued to the radio on Sunday
afternoon. Neighbour Higgins was
over and when that metronome that
was on one of the Ships started tick-
"THE FRIENDLY STORE"
was jammed with people and they
were certainly taking part in the ser-
ing he started to fidget. „ Finally he
whispered, "Phil have got any hard
,cider around?" •Patricia Ann tried to
get a word out. We were all waiting
say something but she couldn't even.
for the big bang to come.
Finally it passed over and we sort
of relaxed and' Patricia Ann said,
"Daddy-I-re —they going to blow the
world up today?, That was a big joke
then but it certainly wouldn't have
been if she had said it a few minutes
before that , , . .especially about the
time of the ticking of the metronome.
