N an 22-North Shore News — Friday, August 4, 2000 Jesigner will market floating lights From Page %3 glass surface just below the surface of the foot-and-a-half deep water, are set to take to the fountain for three 20- minute shows. It marks the first time Hewson, a longtime fan of the annual pertorming and visual arts festival, has taken part in the event. Hewson, who operates Hewson Design Associates in West Vancouver, has spent 45 years as an award-winning industrial designer and “idea man.” Industrial designers posi- tion themselves strategically in the marketplace — acting as the middleman between the idea and the finished product. “They give life to the ideas,” said Hewson’s public relations consultant, Anita Webster. “They also help to make the idea marketable.” “Industrial design can make things work better and make things more esthetically pleasing and that's the kind of message | Bruce works to get across.” Hewson was the man behind the design of the life preservers on BC Ferries and was one of the first people to design those chubby plastic baseball bats children often use to play baseball with. He's also working on an idea for a new type of golf tee that won't dull the blades on golf course mowers — not made from plastic or wood, burt from a starch base. When the tee is discarded, it will naturally dissolve over a short period of time. “Sometimes vou think these things just happen in life, but they need to be a certain weight or meet cer- tain safety specifications or whatever the requirement is,” said Webster. “That's where ani industrial designer comes in "Webster said Hewson is planning to market the float- ing lights for people to use as decoration in pools, gardens and backyard ponds. “(The display) helps peo- ple understand the value of what design can contribute to life and how it can make things work better, be more attractive and contribute to the practicality and quality of the products that we get,” said Webster. Atest-run of Hewson’s lights on July 25th went swimmingly, Webster said. She expects the show to also go off without a hitch. The lth annual Harmony Arts Festival runs from August 4-13 at various West Vancouver venues.

We use such terms, and we should, but they can mean anything or nothing. They don’t mean intimacy. It is true that Jesus was not the first to see God as Father. The religious world ‘then and even now can say it. In Bible days, the Greeks called their gods the _ fathers of men. So did the Romans. It was a religious age. Their gods got things started, so they thought: created things, but they were distant and cold and had dangerous moods. Their gods started things up but lost interest and meved away, there was no intimacy. Get 1¢ pic- ture? It happens today.

With fathers who move away there can be no intima- cy. God is called the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ and He reveals Himself in terms that are beautiful. Yes, it is true He is the First Cause and the giver of life. He is our Creator, He upholds the Universe. Is He too big? Well you can know Him in intimacy and He is looking for you. He loves you, He forgives you, He gives you eternal life. Your existence is not meaningless. Worth getting to know Him? You bet it is. Think about it and head back to church. — The Rev.
