THE NEW BOOKS | Fossil Discoveries Made B.C. Centennial Anthology By Canadian Fine Tribute To West Coas ling achievement and one which entists fill in the picture of life British Columbia is a land where little more than a cen-| tury ago the turbulent rivers) rushed through an almost un-| inhabited wilderness into a silent sea. Today sailors and loggers, prospectors and fishermen, cattle ranchers, bush pilots, poets, and traffic cops throng where once only an occasional shipmaster and a few explorers and fur- traders had ever disturbed the ancestral ways of the native In- dians. All of this fs recalled in a handsome new book, "BRITISH COLUMBIA: A CENTENNIAL ANTHOLOGY," (McClelland and Stewart, Ltd.) which does much to portray in words and pictures the varied life of British Colum- bia in both the past and pres- ent. FINE RESEARCH SEEN Great care and painstaking research has gone into the pub lication of this book edited by Reginald Eyre Watters and al ready, immediately after publica- tion, it is assured of a wide sale s0 heavy have the demands been for it, The first printing of 20,000 copies was exhausted May 8 and a second production of 10,000 copies has been ordered. Be- cause of color illustrations and complications the next available until similar batch won't be early July. "British Columbia: a Centen- nial Anthology" is truly a book for all Canadians to be proud of especially those Canadians who hail from the West Coast In the section of the book en- titled "Days of Our Years" the reader is given a sample of everyday living from 1786 to 1957 the joys, and griefs, routine and excitement, both personal and public. Later, in another chapter, "The Sea Our Door way," we get a close up of scenes and experiences on the open Pacific and in the sheltered coastal waters, and ashore on the islands and in the tidewater| 'STENO SERV' (Stenographic Services) ADVERTISING SPECIALTIES MAILING-TYPING MIMEOGRAPHING DIAL 5-3375 or 5-2864 areas of the mainland.

British Columbia is a vast] province and her centres of pop-| ulation may still seem little more than a glimmery of camp-fires| in an almost empty land. In "The| Glow of Our Lamps" British Col-| umbians are shown dreaming avd striving, hating and loving, grow- ing up and growing old in the) universal cycle of human exis- tence. "Corridors of Our Spirit" shows individuals and groups who exemplify some characteris-| tic response to the challenge or| opportunity of their experience or| environment. | UNUSUAL BOOK | British Columbia is to be con-| gratulated, Her writers, artists and photographers have united | to produce this most unusual | book which will long be an un-| forgettable reminder of the occa- sion of her 100th birthday.
