I + was decided to purchase new adaptable shelves, replacing the present fixed ones, not only for appearance sake but to gain more room. The board is most grateful to local artists who have loaned paintings during the winter to hang in the library. The library will be closed during the last two weeks in July during Mrs. Kirkpatrick's vacation. It was also decided, as being more convenient for the public to close on Wednesday, instead of Thursday, during July and August. Some of the new books include, High Arctic, The Trudeau Papers, Early Days on the Great Lakes, What You Can Do About Pollution, Case Load Maximum, Seasons of the Eskimo, River of Stars, Goal Tender Cheevers of the Bruins, The Little Broomstick, The People Eaters and others.

ACTUAL CANADIAN DOLLAR PRICES Effective July 1, Canada's chartered banks will quote actual Canadian dollar prices for foreign exchange transactions involving U.S. dollars rather than stating discounts or premiums on the American currency, the Canadian Bankers' Association has announced. The C .B.A.'s foreign exchange committee, re- presenting all nine banks, recently decided that the new method would simplify public understanding of such transactions and was desirable to conform to widespread international practice. Thus, for example, if the Canadian dollar were worth one cent more than the U.S. dollar on July 1, the price would be quoted as "99 cents Canadian" rather than as "discounted one per cent". Or if, at that date, the Canadian dollar were worth one cent less than the U.S. dollar, the price would be quoted as "101 cents Canadian", rather than "at a premium of one per cent". Mr. Gwen (Roland) Gauthier, of Duncan, B.C. visited relatives and friends here last week, while the guest of Mrs. Albert Gauthier.
