Total cost of the court building and cell block has been approximately $70,000 but about $30,000 of this will be recovered by the municipal council in grants. Winter works benefits contributed more than was anticipated The municipality borrowed $48,000 fronj the federal municipal aid loan fund to help finance the project and will get some grants from Ottawa to help repay that fund. The loan was made under the provisions of the provincial municipal act sister, Myrna, who won the Miss Langley title three years ago.

Staff photos By.jimime Reminiscences of Aid Bill Lott about the start of a municipal wide May Pay celebration 41 years ago certainly brought forth a few moif versions -of the event. I hope, in view of the deep tradition of the annual pageantry, Aid.

Now! if It would only sop raming. The "smack" received by a recent Langley municipal council delegation to Victoria has finally echoed all the way back to Langley. Reeve Bill Poppy and his aides made the trip to the island city to keep an appointment to see Hon.

A. Gaglardi but when they arrived they were told he was busy and they could see only the deputy to discuss the problem of freeway crossings in this area Disgruntled enough over this turn of events, the naive Langley delegation was shocked to the point of beliger-anca when they stumbled across the highways minister walking along the street in Victoria as they were on their way to a sour lunch.

Jnter-counclllor relations were strained a bit Monday morning when Counc, Eric Flowerdew insisted that a letter of congratulations should go to the building inspector.

He was rebuffed by the rest of the council on the grounds that employees are not congratulated for doing a job they are paid to do. For instance, Counc. Art Woolley suggested, council doesnt send a letter of appreciation every time the RCMP makes an arrest. Special guest speaker at thef opening programme is to be provincial attorney-general Hon Robert W. Bonner.

Superintendent p. Woods-Johnson of New Westminster, RCMP superintendent for the Fraser Valley region, will be one of the special guests invited by the municipal council as will be Egt. H.

A1 Tecklenborg will be on hand Saturday to- turn the key over to the municipality and the RCMP officers The new building has -several special features which will be on display to the public from the time of the opening at two oclock until four o'clock. Actually the structure is two separata buildings, joined by a corridor.

The cell block is a section completely by itself It is entirely re inforced concrete, fireproof and equipped with as many tamper-proof furnishings and equipment as possible tq get. The toilets, for instance, cannot be broken and the light sockets cannot be reached by inmates. There is also a smoke detection system that alarms the general -office if, per chance, a prisoner was abe to start a fire, which is not very likely. There are eight cells in the strong block and these are divided so that juveniles, ladies and men can be kept separate in custody at tho same time. The general administration wing pf the 4,677 square foot structure contains a modest set of business offices, a court room, waiting rooms, offices display a living interest in art that will help them in other studies and contribute to their awareness of the prominent and talented artists who ive in thi community.

Some of the signs are being criticized and others are being endorsed as overdue. The most controversial one ia a stop sign erected recently on Mavis St at Hudson Bay, Ave. on the eastern edge of the national historic park property.

Some people think that the sign should be on Hudson Bay Ave. because "most traffic turns the corner at' the junction. Other residents claim that "most" traffic now goes to and from East Langley via Hudson Bay around the edge of the town and Mavis St comes to and end as it meets Hudson Bay Ave. Loration of the sign was requested by the RCMP as a traffic safety measure During the stop sign discussion at the board of trade meetjng members suggested thatmary St should have stop signs both, ways from Hudson Bay Ave. instead pf just one way.

A stop sign was suggested also on Francis 6ft at Hudson Bay. The control of traffic in fort Langley brought forth, too, a recommendation that direciion signs should be posted in Fort Langley showing the way to Aldergrove and throughout the backroads of Matsqui and Langley showing the way to Fort Langley. i Recreation has surplus lterupts of the municipal recreation commis ion came te $4,199 for the four months ended Afnl 30th, 1944.
