They are nice and tidy and there seems to be lots of room." So it appears. But that is just the surface appearance. What is happening below ground we don't know, and the pollution control people don't like it. On top of that, it is costing us a lot of money���over $1,000 per week in fact, with expected Increases every year, perhaps up to $1,500 next year. And the Pollution Control Board don't like the way we are doing it. Just covering garbage is not good enough. Burning is Illegal. They want us to stop burning. But if we don't burn regularly, wo have a fire hazard situation. The maintenance contractor has four dumps to look after. He can only get to them all about one day per week each. Landfill sites are not easy to find. It requires a special situation, a special method of covering garbage and^a full- time attendance (dally) of the garbage maintenance contractor. - The PCS knows about this and they have been asking us to do something about it for the last eight years to my knowledge. They have been very lenient with us. And we have been dodging the issue for the last eight years at least. , ' Why? Because it's cheaper to not bother about possible leeching, and consequent ground pollution, It's cheap to burn the stuff and have a continuous column of smoke coming from four dumps year in and year out. We have lots of fresh air, I guess. And it's nice and convenient to have a dump in every community. But is it responsible? To do the job right ��� if it's possible on the present sites ��� could cost four to five times our present contract cost. That's a lot of money. Over a year ago when I asked George Gibb to head the Waste Disposal Committee, all these facts were known to the board. We had recommendations from the engineers and from our staff to go to one site only. We already had the site picked ��� a good location near the present Sechelt site and more accessible. . Then the objections came ��� it was inconvenient for some people to travel a few miles to take something to the dump. So George thought of a more central site (for some) in Area D. But there isn't a good site there, and if there was it would ���See page A-3 He said he worked with the firm Dayton and Knight (who designed the local project) both on the mainland and here and moved here because he likes it. He said the superintendent didn't advertise locally for the position and a board member Jias .confirmed that the job was filled by advertising only in an engineering trade journal related to sewerage and water work. "I deserved an interview," Ackerman said. "They told me they were happy with my work (in laying out the sewer lines for Dayton and Knight locally). They were very secretive about it. I spoke to Gordon Dixon and Ann Pressley (regional secretary) and they said they would advertise. I accidentally, found out the treatment plant position was being-advertised. I don't know how long they advertised for it." He said when he phoned board chair- rNicholson he was-told-on- phone that these were the things the board wanted to deal with. "He (Nicholson) said they'd get right on it. I decided, since my jobs were in municipal construction, I'd be discreet. So I swallowed my tongue. "It was supposed to be dealt with in the 15th March management, staff meeting. He told me to.say notliing about it. We'd meet with Gordon Dixon and Ed and see if -th^rejs another reason I was riot hired, rtha resident and a taxpayer," Ackerson said.

But it's time people knew." In a letter to board chairman Nicholson, dated March 14, Ackerman made four points that caused his "complete resentment at not having been given the opportunity to present my qualifications personally as I had requested." Firstly, he stated that it was not advertised locally, and secondly that he was not given the courtesy of an interview. His third point outlined his extensive experience in the field since 1946 and said his work in the preliminary layout of the local system and Pollution Control Center gave him knowledge that "could have been ol great assistance in any related problems." 9-period-ofi-Baneia--restra_nt-at- all levels of government, I feel it was essential that an effort be made to fill this position locally rather than to incur the additional expense of moving someone in from out of the district," Ackerman's fourth point stated. "Considering that the original person hired, refused to accept the position and that an alternative was chosen, without me still being'.extended this courtesy, I consider th}s*apersonal--_frQnt. Mr. Dixon wsarweif aware of j-oy-j-ituation in that I had discussed this matter with him, both before and after the position had been filled initially," the letter concluded. New Sechelt sewer ups rates average THE LADIES golf season started without a bang last week when the shotgun start was minus the shot. $45 a year to Nearly three yearfc afjser referendum approval, the; Sechelt Sewage Collection, Treatment and Disposal Service Unit should be ready for conhectltms by May, SCRD secretary treasurer Anne Pressley said last week. Mrs. Pressley appeared before Sechelt Village council with plant operator Graeme Faris to bring the council up to date on the costs and financing of the plant. The cost of the plant is $2.25 million, a substantial increase on the $1.6 million ��� originally estimated. In turn, the average user (based on a single detached family residence with taxable frontage of 60 feet) will pay about $45 more annually for a total of $126. However, since a further assessment of two mills is ho longer needed, the average users' Increase is actually $30 annually. A grant of $822,625 was received from CMHC leaving approximately $1.43 million to be financed over 125 years. With $100,000 from the Sewage Facilities Assistance Act and an $807,000 Joan from the Municipal Finance Authority, of which only 75 per cent has to be paid, approximately $618,000 has yet to be financed. Mrs. Pressley estimated ap- prbximately $43,800 from frontage tax annually for 25 years will pay the debt. The total taxable foot-frontage equals 39,712 which works out to $1.10 per frontage foot. This is 50 cents per foot more than originally estimated. The users' rates have been set to finance the operation and maintenance of the plant. Mrs. Pressley estimated revenue from the rates will equal $38,880 annually, though now the revenue will actually equal $33,828. The difference will be made up In the commercial expansion of downtown Sechelt set for this year. Connection fees of $350 for a 100 mm connection and $400 for a 150 mm connection win be charged. Fees paid on or before October 31,1979 will be reduced 15 per cent. All connections must be made within six months after the plant is in operation. Users are responsible for the cost of extending the line from the dwelling to the connection. Bylaw 182, explaining installation and Inspection requirements, Is available for $1.25 from the SCRD office. A Court of Revision is scheduled for April 28 at 3:30 p.m. to hear complaints of the names of owners or parcels of land, the actual foot frontage of the parcels and the taxable foot frontage of the parcels. Notice of the complaint must be given in writing to the office of the SCRD secretary at least 48 hours prior to tho court's sitting.

"They are no longer able to dampen sufficiently the heavy swells breaking upon them, consequently, the arefcrohlnd them which is supposed to be reasonably calm and sheltered, becomes Intolerable. "The result is that vessels break adrift, floats are damaged unnecessarily and people who must ubo the floats to get to their boats during these conditions, often on their hands and knees, are being forced to take Unacceptable risks' to protect their property and very livelihood.

The committee has estimated the revenue currently generated by the commercial vessel fleet at $5,172,000 and employment directly and indirectly-, related to the fleet at 309 persons, Because of the overcrowding and Inadequate facilities,- 16 fishing vessel- owners are mooring their boats as far away as Secret Cove and Steveston and are commuting to and from Gibsons. Besides these, another 20 fishing vessel owners havo indicated their wish to moor in Gibsons. ".Taking into account the information gathered on fishing vessels alone, a mtnimitm of 40 tnrtra vwweto could be expected to um Gib*).*, if adequate moorage were available," the brief continued. "The benefit to the community is too obvious to dwell upon further," Numerous commercial vessels are bypassing Gibsons, not wjkhlng to put up- govt wharf with the congestion and lack of facilities such as net floats and gear repair accommodation. "Hundreds of thousands of dollars" which might have been spent on fuel, repairs, provisions and equipment are lost to the local business community, it said. Moorage space is available for transient pleasure craft during the siimfrier when nearly all commercial vessels are absent. The brief suggests incorporating landing facilities for float planes within an over-all harbour development plan, since presOTt floats Tray n(X be BTntaMc after proposed changes to the harbour, The brief said the village council has the committee's full support for the proposed 443-berth marina and la "wholeheartedly commended for Its Initiative". The following were advised to solve both the wharf's condition and the con tinuing economic problems: ��� Eliminate Immediately all structural weaknesses in the Government Wharf to avoid further deterioration. ���Replace the present 200-foot A-frame breakwater on tho south side of the wharf with a solid breakwater. ��� Redesign the float layout to accommodate the maximum number of commercial vessels. ��� Dredge the seaward approaches to, and the area Intended for, the commercial floats, to at least 14 feet below the Jaw water line Jn order to accommodate tbc ever-Increasing number of larger, deep- draft vessels. ��� Provide adequate protection for the north side of the wharf and Its shore approach by building r suitable breakwater f. ���See Pafte A-l \ 1 ��� ���<- PageA-2 The Peninsula Times Wednesday, April 11,1979 Pull up a stump but don't stand up on it _Maybe it's a good thing we are not watch and hear enough ofthe merry- go-round: If by some diraiice-ai-rof those folks who are running. for anything realize we had our run on ���o_n;M"main road to anywhere.

Bay run: Sunday, March 11,1979���3:30 p.m. - we arrived at the Langdale terminal planning to take the 3:50 pun. ferry to Horseshoe Bay. The line-up was tremendous, and were told we would have to wait for the 6 p.m. ferry, which me-mFOwo-and-ohe^ half-hour wait. We decided to go back to Gibsons, and have: something to eat. We left Gibsons at S p.m. and returned to the terminal only to find a similar line-up and to hear that we would now have to wait for the 7:15 p.m. ferry, which would mean silting in our car for another two hours. Again we returned to Gibsons and arrived back at the terminal at 6:30 p.m. We were four cars short of getting on the ferry and sat waiting for the 8:15 p.mrsailing, which we caught! in the mail as 'it is. Now this doesn't" mean we are left out of the mainstream of all this gab and garble. No, not at all. We have TV and CBC and we can fall. No promises. No speculation. No salvation.

All-candidates meeting wanted by Ehplie students Making light of politics and politicians is one pastime, but a far superior one is watching and listening to Elphinstone Student Research use for it and it's going to be quite an affair. It's their fourth forum. They've done Habitat, Herbicides and Waste Notes to any disoriented, disenchanted voters out there. Isn't it nice? Isn't It great? I mean to. see the politicians out jogging again? To have them bribing and cajoling us and being nice and kissing babies and at each others verbal throats? It's been a long tough inflated winter and it looks to be a long windy spring. Please don't think we are getting two elections for the price of one. We are definitely getting two for the price of two. I wonder if the Premier's political can- niness might not backfire as the NDP is the only party playing in both the federal and provincial leagues at the same time. Theirs will be an all out, two-league campaign with two-way benefits: more signs, more headquarters and one aim. Or did the Premier think to present them wittr a second front���a war on two fronts being a tougher war? I can't help but think that W.A.C. would have been a little more subtle and policlcally astute. Three year elections are expensive, irritating and, looking to the last provincial election, often self- competing politicians would run around to each and every pub. buying free rounds for all in return for votes. This practice was discontinued by officially closing all drinking establishments and liquor outlets on voting day which also insured that most of the populace would be able to make It to the polls. Ah well, a sigh for the old days,. How sad that I now look at elections as being something like hen bane..-they are Ihalodorous, they are unpalatable and they are turgid, if not soporific, Those.on a fixed income are in the roughtest shape.

The largest Social Credit hot potato is Hydro though there are many. Hydroelectric bills have mushroomed to gargantuan proportions and most persons gasp audibly and have to be steadied in the post office as they crack open that brown envelope with its cheery little enclosure on the saving of electricity. Anyone not interested in Mythology might think Hydro got its name from Hydrogen, a chemical In water. Water, when toppling oyer a dam, produces energy. Nonsense: Hydro got Its name, and most aptly, from Hydra In Greek mythology. Hydra was a nine-headed serpent who grew two heads for each one that was cut off. Hercules had to kill him with a firebrand as he was a toughy to handle. It seems to me that if we look back to W.A.C. Bennett's policies on "down stream" benefits and the Columbia river business many moons ago we could figure out why our electric bills are so much higher than those received In the state of Washington.

Although many people are now inclined to accept evolutionary theories as valid, scientific proof supporting these theories should convince, mapy skeptics that man did pot simply arrives earth. The unearthing of the "missing link" would also promote serious discussion as to how man made tho transition from animal survivor to human thinker. Somehow man began to walk upright, developed language, and learned to use tools. He enriched his existence with qualities such as imagination and abstraction, became a cfeature^of emotion and of intellect, and demonstrated in the process that he was a most unique species. Despite this uniqueness, man is still inextricably linked to the animal kingdom. His needs ������ food and water, shelter and sleep ��� are the same for all animals. Man's sex drive, though admittedly more refined ti-an~'the"nniiatingT-j(��ocess of animal., is a similarly Intense and Instinctual urge. In almost all ways man's behaviour Is an extension of animal behaviour, though at each level man's behaviour Is generally more complex; his motives, rationale, actions and reactions considerably more sophisticated than those of animals. Such Is the case with exploitation. Animals exploit in only crude and simple , ways. For Instance, during a communal conflict a male baboon will hold on to a baby In order to protect himself from more aggressive males, because baboons will not attack other baboons who have.young with them. But animals don't possess the mental faculties, which are required to perfect exploitation, Man, however, has become a most proficient exploiter. He utilises for his own ends, disregarding both people, and the environment. The exploiting which animals are guilty of at least involves a face to face confrontation and is done in the name of survival. Man, on the other hand, does not exploit out of necessity, nor does he even have to acquaint himself with whoever or whatever he is exploiting. The chairman of the board need only make a phone call or two to radically change thousands of workers' lives. Sitting in a skyscraper in any city, businessmen can render decisions affecting virgin land never seen by any of them. Not that It would make any difference were they to see what they were taming.

Indispensable consumer products such as cat food and fur for coat trim apparently provide sufficient reason to exterminate some of the most maginificent creatures on earth. There may be much to be learned from the whales, but at the rate they are disappearing, we'd better hope that our scientists are fast learners. Despite a world-wide protest initiated by the Greenpeace Foundation, deaf ears at all levels of business and government have been turned to the plea. Our own government seems Impotent to deal with offending nations such as Russia and Japan which makes one wonder what private agreements have been reached concerning the slaughter. If there are no mutual pacts, our gpvernment Is Just as guilty for riot protesting the killings and for not taking definitive measures to prevent futher senselessness. Either way, exploitation Is occurring and extinction may soon be its by-product. It's time that the people who have attained positions of power came out of their never-land stupor long enough to realize that astute trading in stocks and clever bidding on building contracts do hot mean anything If they are not accomplished with a sense of foresight and responsibility. I'm sure that the anthropologists could tell us how early man discovered power. Initially it would have had a great deal to do with brute strength. Then, somewhere along the line, the means of obtaining power became more sophisticated, and now modem man continues to embellish these means, obsessively seeking and holding power through the most ruthless means. Maybe we should have stayed with brute strength. were to be scheduled properly, the tourist industry should increase by SO per cent.

They, too, enjoy the power cultivates arrogance ratiier than responsibility, Even though responsibility is supposed to be the keystone of politics, political decisions frequently betray reason and Intelligence while securing profits and advantages for a self-seeking clanging of the Oriental gong, used to summon the fish at feeding time.

"' So again, director Gibb thought of incineration. We had a thorough investigation of our waste disposal done, both for content and amount, and a cost estimate of the incinerator plant and advantages, etc. Perhaps we could sell the heat from incineration. But, again, the cost was high, the advantages doubtful, and we could only have one incinerator and so only one site. So we are back to square one. - The possibility of closing the Pender Harbour site has raised a storm of protest. The distance down to a central site in Sechelt Is something to be considered in any final decision. But ifs obvious to me that the three other sites have to be consolidated, or so we must expect to pay MUCH more tax money next year. If the Pender site is retained, and It should last about three more years, the possible extra cost for proper maintenance of that site is a factor. This Increased cost factor has not yet been taken into account by anyone.

Attending were fifty-five ladies interested in the business world. For the past several years they have been meeting, now they are seriously thinking of * forming a Business and Professional WomenXclub. ; This organization goes back to 191$' when women first asserted themselves by joining together. In 1930 a charter was granted under the Dominion Companies Act. Jean Ferris, herself very much in the business world as a Notary Public in Sechelt, is one of the prime instigators in forming a B & P Club. What is it? Well it works as a national, voluntary, non-sectarian, non-partisan, non-profit making federation of clubs composed of women engaged in business, the professions and industry. It is the only national organization in Canada having the economic status of women as a primary concern. The list of achievements is long and women all over ljave benefited singly and collectively, and so has the world. So to those who are thinking of getting involved, do so. It will be good for you and for all of us. i ARTS PLANT SALE The Arts Building fund grew by $510.40 last Saturday, April 7, with the plant sale that saw everything clear out at record speed.

A new star is born in Christopher Reeve, 26, who stars as Clark Kent-Superman, and the career of Margot Kidder should be greatly accelerated.

THE QUOTABLE WOMAN edited by Elaine Parthow, Doubleday Anchor, cl9?8, 539 pages, indexed, $11.50. It was only a mere four years ago that Agatha Christie died quietly in her own drawing room in Wallingford, England. Hers had not always been a quiet life, however. Her happy childhood was saddened by the death of her beloved father, Freddy Miller. Agatha clung to her protective mother until the lady's death which some believe led in part to the strange disappearance _rf Agatha in 19261 Miss Christie's handsome husband had "taken up" with another young lady of notable beauty. At the time, Agatha was extremely depressed at the passing of her mother and also at the delicate condition of her marriage. She had also been ..-working hard on her mystery writing as well as tending the needs of her small, daughter, Rosalind. Although she would never discuss her disappearance, Miss Christie did maintain' ���that_1t~wasr-an-attack-of~amnesia~or~ hysterical fugue. After all the ac- ���companying excitement of-her-brief exttr the Christie marriage dissolved but it was not long before each was married happily and permanently again. The book delves into personal vignettes about Agatha's writing, her family and her own home in her books. Her books not onljTenriched the lives~6f BeTreaderaTbuT" also fattened the family coffers. She was known as one of the "richest writers that England has ever produced". Certainly she had that inborn talent of being a good story teller. Elaine Part ow does what Bartlett does riot. She found that in the latter volume, only one-half of one per cent of quotations were by women. In THE QUOTABLE WOMAN, Partnow sets about correcting the oversight. Expect not a tome of liberation slogans, but rather, a serious work including such notable women as Margaret Mead,. Golda .Meir, Mme._. Chiang Kai-Shek and Lady Churchill. Because "serious" includes all aspects of out society, you will find quoted, Judy Garland, Martha Mitchell and Jacqueline Kennedy. You will be relieved to note* that Margaret Trudeau is not quoted while EmilyjCarr and _other famous Canadians are. For a sampling, try these quotes:. "Wonderful women: Have you ever thought how much we all, and women especialjsyrowe-to-Shakespeare-for-his- vindication of women in thies fearless, high-spirited, resolute and- intelligent- heroines?" (1911) "When a man confronts a catastrophe on the road, he looks in his purse *- but a woman looks in her mirror".

The month is about March or April and the fateful day has; arrived, the day that in these modern times is -strangely-teraied-t,Good-Friday"-rr���- . You and I are a part of that vast crowd, eagerly surging up the narrow streets and out the gates of old Jerusalem, making bur way to a hilltop on the outskirts, to witness the execution of three prisoners, condemned to die the death of crucifixion on a cross. It is interesting that through the years, nations have developed strange and tragic means of taking the life of their criminals. The Jews followed the practice of stoning, France developed the guillotine, in the U.St there is the electric chair, and then we can mention the gallows and the firing squad. Despite the horrors and terrors of these instruments of death, they are yet humane, considering that death comes quickly; but it took imperial Rome, who ruled the world some 600 years,' to devise a mode of execution, which combined in one, allthe terrorsof torture- and deathr "-==��� The victim was strung up alive on a wooden cross, where he would die in due course, from exposure to the elements and removed, we recoil at the ghastly: sight of what the cruel Roman whip has done.

He was born June 29,1884 in England' and first came to the area in 1900. Ninety-five full and interesting years this man of strong character lived and he is remembered as kindly, inventive, a true builder, be it houses, boats or pioneering. -., The day after his arrival in Vancouver he celebrated his 16 birthday then went to Roberts Creek to join aij ujgble who had come out from England earlier and preempted land in the area that now bears their family name. Married in 1905 to Bertie Sisson, he built his first house alongside the Creek. The house was known as "The Castle" for years as the turrets stood out among the surrounding trees.

In our contemplation of the cross, I wonder whether our imagination is fully capable of grasping its agony! To be nailed in an immoveable horizontal position, would be torture, beyond our ability to conceive. But to be raised vertically, dropped roughly, perhaps violently, into a hole in the ground; and there the weight of the body to be suspended from two iron spikes, driven into outstretched hands, is something els^J^ Hour after torturous hour goes by and the only movement allowed tne oody, is between raw bleeding flesh and three iron spikes, one in each hand and one holding the feet together. It's hard for the mind to conceive of! Certainly today, it must be nigh impossible, even though we are nourished on a mental diet of violence and the savage crimes of manslaughter that have invaded the sanctity of the home. Our once soft and tend^s^gpilitief^ye now calloused aijd haniened��� ~ Then suppose you were enduring all this in the.presence of a large crowd, jeering, ridiculing, taunting and insulting, without a moment of relief, enduring the unbearable agony together with the humility, until death at last brought merciful release. All this is but a tiny glimpse of what death on a cross must be like. Silently watching the dreadful scene is the detachment of Roman soldiers at their post of duty. They had witoessed every event of that memorable day. They had escorted the criminals on their last Journey to the place of execution. It was one' of them who ordered Simon the Cyrenlan to carry the cross of Christ. They, no doubt, had pinned the fighting victims down to their crosses, while the man with the sledge hammer pounded the spikes. They also saw this Man on the middle cross lie down like it was His bed. They had seen men die, but never like this Man. They heard Him ask His Father to forgive them. They had witnessed the earth quake and the graves open and the darkness! The mystery of it all. It took a pagan Roman officer to bear testimony that "truly this was God's son." But the suffering of this Man on the middle cross did not begin when the iron spikes went through His hands. On arrival at the scene We discover that His face is battered and bruised. Matt 26:67 says that . he was "buffetted" - struck with the clenched fist, perhaps when blindfolded and unaware of the coming blows. No wonder the prophet says "His appearance was so marred, beyond human resem- and resurrection of Jesus Christ, describes it as the "power of God" 1 Cor 1:18; Phil 3:10. Wherein is this power and how do we apply it to ourselves. First, in our acceptance of the risen Christ as Lord and Master. Second,.in our willingness to be raised from the death of sin, to a life of holiness in and through the risen Lord and the power of His Spirit. Our Lord's resurrection would avail us nothing unless we experience its power in raising us to a new life, in Him and through blance" so astonished" much so Isa 52:14.

CHRISMAS, Chairman, Timber Days & Loggers Sports Committee. WHOOPEE! And a couple .'SM'-irhappytcrsaj Trail Boss has taken over one of the most sensitive jobs as Chairman, Parade Committee. He will be heading up our annual drive to show off the new breed who will be building up our communities of the future; some of the older breeding stock who have already contributed and are still contributing to the well, being of our community; and to bring together the larger community in a spirtt of friendship vihenew Homer (Rawhide) Gtess!fIf you are irtthe vicinity of .the marshalling grounds on the morning of May 21, you will hear old Rawhide beller, "Round 'em up and head 'em out I", as he starts the long string on its slow and ponderous exodus along the Sechelt Trail to the Hackett Stock Yards. Anditisa prodigious job! Homer got his feet wet last year by taking control of the starting gate at the marshalling grounds. The start was Ok, but at the first turn, a low wire and a high mast stalled the procession while the mast was lowered. .Other minor setbacks along the way and hear the end slowed things a bit, so Homer Is determined this will not happen, this year. And with a possible ten extra floats as a result of Special Events giving points for group entrees, this could be the most ambitious parade since the beginning of Timber Days. Old Rawhide will be taking on a crew of Wranglers as point riders to turn the drive at appropriate places, so any of you hands with ten gallon hats and high heeled boots what would like to become Trail Riders of the Sechelt Plains, give Rawhide a call at 885-9410. Welcome to the gang, Homer, ahd I hope you get as much personal satisfaction from your Job as I do mine I SPECIAL EVENTS COMMITTEE Meanwhile, Kathy Acton, as chairman of her Special Events Committee and working with a llvewlre crew of helpers, ls planning an expanded program over last year's activities which were very successful. She has fired up the interest and enthusiasm of local businessmen, service clubs and Chamber of Commerce in her search for ton groups of competitors. Each group picks a princess who is then entered as a candidate in the Timber Maid contest. They score points for their princesses by earning points in sports; darts, bridge and cribbage; ticket sales and parade floats. The candidates are presented at the Timber Days dance on the evening of May 12, a week before the main festivities. Kathy now has tickets for sale at $8 per couple and if last year was an example, they won't last long. Better call her for yours now at 835-5051. PARK CONCESSIONS Most of the service clubs and other groups have lined up their stalls and of concessions for the two-day celebrations. >Ut There-are spaces available set up booths to sell their products as long as it is for charity or a worthy cause. This ! is one of the most popular ways for many organizations to raise funds for their favorite projects and to provide help and care to under-privileged or handicapped folks in the community. LOGGERS SPORTS And then of course, there is the Loggers Sports! The combining,of ^lay Day an$.-~, "* '"'__ BvenyetU-j^ago^wa^tlM birth of Timber Days. There are times, when the weather dampens'spirits, grounds and enthusiasms, there Is a desire to move loggers sports along a month or so, but without the loggers, we wouldn't have a Timber Days. So in order to keep what seems to be settling down to a well organized' and well run_ two-day celebration, they are staying with us. And I believe it is to our mutual benefit. It takes a lot of hard work and community effort to put together a show like this and for the groups who set up booths to provide food and entertainment, a one-day stand hardly makes it worthwhile. I am given to understand that a three-day stand was tried but was found to be to cumbersome. I am sure that at the end of two days, everyone connected with the show has had enough and in all probability, the public feels the same way. So two days seems about right for what we have to offer. After all, it ls only a start on a season of warm spring days, a long, hot summer (hopefully) and of getting father up at the crack of dawn and away to the fishing grounds for his share of the bountiful salmon runs of fall. This year's Loggers Sports will feature 15 events with possibly a novice class for some. To speed up the afternoon show, some elimination heats will be run off In the morning. Prize presentations will be made to winners of each event while others are being prepared. Only special prizes of Weldwood's Logger of the Day, and Art Williams' Sportsman of the Day will be presented at the end of the competitions. This should keep the interest of the spectators at a high pitch at all times. And then we are hoping for Copper Canyon Saldolng her stuff again this year. Her keeper, Art Williams, has a lot of trouble keeping her in at least a partial state of sobriety, so we are waiting for conflnnatlon from Art that Sal will be In shape for this year's show. Here's hoping! And so, that is our show for thia'year and I am sure you will find it a winner. The Timber Days Committee will be meeting again on April 10, 7:30 p.m. at the municipal office, Sechelt. Anyone wishing information Is welcome to attend. PLEASE NOTE An omission was mads In the Sunnycrest Flyer ad regarding the GRAND PRIZE GIVEAWAY of a FREEZER and a SIDE OF BEEF.lt should have been 'stated that the approximate value of the prize Is $750, and the winner must answer a skill-testing question. l#* * * 4 * 4 *... 4 ��� 14 ' 4 4 .,���,*., 4 4 4 4 * * -wSSBsf * Jt____\\___sL~ FILL YOUR BASKET WITH OUR EASTER GOODIES!

Coast Strokers He brightened lives... A tribute to Gordie By Dehnis Gray Truly with this man gone some light will be gone from our day, but for his close friends and family it must be an eclipse. Maybe when we reach his stage of maturity, after we have scored as many pluses and brightened as many lives as he has, it will be our time to go, too. He may have been needed and wanted somewhere else. Perhaps that is the logic, but wherever he is, someone's day will be brighter. Gordie Booth was a young computer technician with a bright future. Through a maze of wires, punch cards and blinking lights he fed the computer information and It gave the answers. Everyone wants answers. They are part of the formula.,They balance^ the equation -arid -make us feel secure. *' But now Gordie has left us with a question the computer cannot answer. "Why did he leave us so soon?" A computer is logical, it's course predictable, it's answers based on mathematical certainty. Not so with life. If there isa logic in life neither man nor computer can follow It. So we are left with the question "why him, why so young? " He was a friend of all Advertising.^ lets you know what's what. CANADIAN ADVERTISING ADVISORY BOARD who knew him and seemed deserving of the best rewards life can offer. His death is like a betrayal of all that is good and kind and one feels cheated at the loss of such a friend. It is not surprising that I was introduced to Gordie by motorcycling, since he was an enthusiast ahd one. of the first r from the area to compete in moto-cross. But it was a stronger bond than motorcycles that made our friendship a lasting one. It was his nature, his awareness and consideration of others. Gordie was like a breath of fresh air in a haze of smoke, quiet in the midst of confusion, pleasantness in the face of bad manners and bad tempers. His smile was an effective defence against unreasonable people. Gordie was active in many physical sports and it was one of these (SCUBA diving) that took his live. Final farewells seem to be something to read between the lines, since many scoundrels have their few pearls of good dredged up and polished at this time, while their bad side is forgotten. But may Gordie's friends bear me out. If he had a bad side I never saw it- Keep strokln. A very worthwhile gift for a very special person: "Moorcroft", always beautiful, always appreciated. ��� Miss Bee's, Sechelt. NOWS THE TIME TO BUCKLE DOWN!

Recent research indicates that one of the most fundamental requirements for rescuing a downtown area is SECURITY. , ���>������' Potential businessmen, .shoppers, employees and downtown residents demand safety in the, downtown core, or they will go elsewhere. Another important emerging concept- is the split between the place of Work and place of residence, because more and more people want to live closer to the work and service facilities of the downtown core. This desire is, of course, based'on the first fact ~ SECURITY. GOOD TRANSIT is another requirement of the downtown, and this is an aspect that reaches out of downtown to the suburbs. City government can stimulate redevelopment and revitalizatlon of the downtown area, if it pays close attention to research that reveals the citizen's concerns.

Curling news It's Time to Start Thinking About Exterior HOUSE PAINTING Men's hockey Officiating questioned as OK Trophy stays in Powell River Last weekend the Powell River Taws defeated a contingent from the Sunshine- Coast for the third year in a row to keep the OK Challenge Trophy at their end. With the trophy at stake, a pick-up group of former Gales and commercial hockey players under the sponsorship of the Elphinstone Recreation Association, left for Powell River for the best of three series to be played there. Although the series ended in a narrow defeat by the locals, the three-time champion Taws needed all the help they could (get Jo win the series two gamesi to one."'" Game 1 - Elphinstone 7, Taws 6 It was this first game that let the Powell River commercial champion Taws see that they would not have an easy time of the series; but in the beginning it appeared to all that it would be a cakewalk. Taws jumped in to a 2-0 lead by the 1:44 mark of the first period on goals by Alan Antle and Dan Bourassa. But by the midway part of tlte period, Elphinstone had gathered themselves together, and tied the game on goals by Dave Lamb and Kelly Bodnarek. The Powell River crew continued to dominate, scoring three goals before Ted Lever scored the Elphinstone third goal with less than a minute to play. After being widely outshot In the first, the locals came back to outshoot Powell River in the second, with each team scoring a single goal ��� Taws at the 10 second mark on a lovely individual goal by Dean Ochltwa, while Jim Gray replied for Elphinstone to bring the locals within two again. With the score at 6-4 the Elphinstone went to work, scoring three unanswered goals. Terry Germaine got the team back into it on a power play from line mates Lamb and Bodnarek. That set the stage for the tense and exciting finish with great chances at either end by both clubs, but spectacular ���goaltendlng by Sam Casey kept the score even. It wasn't until the 18:50 mark of the final frame that Dave Lamb connected for the winner, and his second goal of,the ALLAN CRANE A DRAGLINE SERVICES DRAGLINE OR CLAM BUCKET WORK ANY (EACH ORBWAKWATIR JOB QUOTED ON ��� FREE OF CHAROE FROM THE WATER OR LAND Lorn* Allan 936-9082 anytime. game, converting a pass from linemates Bodnarek and Gray.���^���������������.��� Shots on goal in the game saw Taws outshoot Elphinstone 41-31, while Powell River took four penalties to three for the locals. Game 2 ��� Taws 6, Elphinstone 5 In a game that was almost a reversal of the previous evening's contest, it was tine Taws who again opened the scoring with Greg Martin picking up the first tally followed by little Gary Pierce, an exceptionally, talented playerpicked up by, the Taws for the series. It was tlie second goal for Terry Germaine in the series, which saw the locals come to within one. But the second period saw the ref ereeS take over, and power plays made the difference as the locals found themselves shorthanded on eight occasions. However, Elphinstone hung on with some outstanding goaltendlng and exceptional penalty killing by their big four defence of Stu Orpen. Mike Sutherland, Tom Hansen and veteran Bob Blake. During this period the locals withstood tremendous pressure and even managed to tie the game on goals by Tom Hansen and Ted Lever with Gary Pierce picking up his second of the game for Taws. At the end of two It was 3-3, and both teams poured it On in the third with unbelievable chances at either end. It was Brian Adams for the Taws who broke the game open with two goals In a span of two minutes, the second being a powerplay goal. But Elphinstone never gave up, and fought back to within one with a nice goal by Tom Pick on a pass from Cece Duff. Just 12 seconds later Greg Martin deflected a goalmouth pass from Pierce again, giving Casey no chance, ,on what proved to be the winner. With four minutes left in the game, Elphinstone pulled within I one again on a pretty play by Cece Duff >hb pulled the Taws' goalie well out of position before scoring. The final four minutes proved to be Just ' as tense and as exciting as the previous night's game with Elphinstone pouring on the pressure. Having pulled Casey for a sixth attacker the Elphinstone managed to hit two goalposts in the final minute while the Taws could only manage two weak rlnk-length shots at the open net. Final score W$ Taws. With Powell River scoring four of their six goals on power plays, the feeling was that had there been neutral officials, the third game in the series may not have been necessary. That was never more obvious than in the final game Sunday which the referee turned into an absolute farce. After the first game where the locals received but-three minor penalties, with Powell River in need of a win, Elphinstone not playing any differently, were handed 18 minor penalties by a different official. Game 3 - Taws 10, Elphinstone 8 - It was apparent from the outset the officials were not going to allow the challenge trophy out of Powell River, as a steady stream of Elphinstone players found their way to the penalty box for ;some very ridiculous penalties. However, this didn't begin until the second period, as By ANNERENNIE The Annual Mixed Bonspiel held March 23 to 25 was a great success with Sechelt rinks the predominate winners this year.

Music 'minutes scoring three unanswered goals by Terry Germaine, Jim Gray and Dave Lamb. A fourth goal was apparently In, according to the Powell River goal Judge, but the referee ruled otherwise. After one it was 3-0 for Elphinstone. In the second, a tremendously clean and hard-hitting game was ruined by the referee as the Elphinstone team played all but the first minute and a half two men short. During their 18 minutes of power play the Taws managed to score six goals, three by Dan Bourassa and one by Gary Pierce and Greg Martin. Ted, Lever scored an early goal in the period, and while still two men short Kelly Bodnarek intercepted an errant pass and slipped the puck behind the Taws keeper to miraculously bring the score to 6-5 at the end of two periods. But a win wasn't to be in the cards as the locals came out storming and at even strength at the start of the third, scrambled all around the Taws net, only to have the Powell River team come back and have one of their shots deflect In off of an Elphinstone player. Dave Lamb, Bob Blake and Jim Gray finished off the scoring for Elphinstone, while Ochltwa : with two, Martin and Pierce completed the scoring for Powell River. Considering the locals had only played twice together this season, the team felt that they gave a good showing of themselves, and with any luck at all, could have brought the trophy down this way. Planning has already begun for an amalgamated hockey league next year that should Interest all commercial, over- the-hiH and Industrial hockey players. It is hoped that a four or five team Senior men's league will be formed, a seml-non- hittlng league where players will be drafted onto the teams. More on this at a later date.

The first entry in the Parish Register of St. Charles Is dated July 14, 1861. This Is followed by an entry In the French language, translated as follows: "Churches subsidiary to the Mission St. Charles. Village of Seashell. Benediction of the church. The 15th April 1873,1 the undersigned, Vicar General, assisted by Rev. Father Carion have solemnly blessed and dedicated in veneration of the Moist High under the name of SS.

Its interior .was richly and tastefully decorated. On July 10,1893 Bishop Auguste Don- tenwill, Father E.C. Chirouse and Father Domeau arrived in Sechelt to conduct a mission. The Bishop published a lengthy and most moving account of their sojourn with the Indian people. The congregation at this time consisted of only 250 souls, yet in addition to Our Lady of the Rosary the Sechelts had erected a two-storey house for the misslonaires, located Just back and tothe west.of_the_new_churchr_-.--_��� -���_ Joint Federal-Provincial Commission on Dec. 7,1876. This, of course, was more ~ti-ffiTa7e~arlB_hW^oh-r^^ for a military grant to D.L. 303-304, being land in what is now the Corporation of the Village of Sechelt. By the time the Reserve was first surveyed in 1881 the designation Chatelech had lost general acceptance In favour of the name Sechelt. "O.M.I., Vicar lienerai.'.' SS. Redempteur may be rendered Into English as the Most Holy Redeemer, or perhaps StSaviour's Church. One wonders why this place of worship built in the -summer oM872-was not-blessed-untll-the^ spring of 1873. Such a delay was common at the time because there were not sufficient Oblates to visit all the Indians In the province at frequent Intervals. When Rev. It was prior to the setting up of the Reserve that the first two Indian churches were built on traditional Indian lands at Sechelt. The present church is the fifth on almost the same site. " Father William Brabender, O.M.I., wrote a history of the Sechelt Mission, published in the French language in 1935. Hereunder is a translation of an excerpt regarding the early churches. "The number of the faithful so Increased that the chapel built in 1868 became too small and a larger one was necessary. In August of 1872 this new church was built by the Indians under the direction of Father Durieu. The- most difficult work was done by a white. The new edifice measured 15 metres long and 7 wide. Each family contributed six dollars toward defraying the expenses. This money was collected by Chief George and handed over to Father Durieu who was in charge of buying the material at New Westminster."

The exterior of SS. Redempteur was elegantly painted with a curved line giving emphasis toa circular front window. The entrace_ lacedeastahd tfierbof abwethea*oof bore" a beautiful little dome upon which a cross was erected. On the same day that Rev. Father Paul Durieu blessed SS. Redempteur he also dedicated the cemetery on Reserve No. 2. The relevant entry from the Parish Register of St. Charles translates as follows: "Benediction of Seashell Cemetery. The 15th April 1873, I the undersigned Vicar General have solemnly blessed the cemetery which the Sechelts have prepared and suitably enclosed about two hundred paces to the east of their church at Chat-ledge, blessed the same day." Nine years later, On Nov. 27, 1881. Bishop Durieu made a further entry in the Parish Register of St. Charles when he "blessed a small bell for the Church of the Sechelts at Chatledge, under the name of Moses". The Sechelt Indians had a reputation for being among the most industrious and intelligent in the province, a proud and ""^Tfie earlier and smaller SSrRedemp- teur church still stood behind the priests house, but by 1893 It had been converted into a catechism house.

So Father Chirouse, helped by the other Fathers, spent about two hours in rehearsing new melodies. The facility which these Indians "have"for"4cat~ching' WBif !s~truly~won-~ derful and, had I not been a witness of this expertness, I could scarcely have credited it. They will faultlessly repeat an air when sung twice over for them. "Though all are ready singers, the women by far surpass the men in aptness to learn, and there exists quite a rivalry between the members of the two sexes. This talent for music Is an Instinctive one, and Is common to the British Columbia Indians. "As the hour was growing very late, Father Chirouse gave the signal for retiring, but the Indians wanted to sing more. To satisfy them Rev. Father Domeau started them on some comic airs which .they had learned previously. You should have heard them laughing and applauding themselves after each verse, which was sung with great spirit by all, the children and old folks included. They then, retired to their respective houses and, in less than a quarter of an hour afterwards the lights were out, every one was in bed except one of the watchrnen, who stayed up until micfeight to seejthat, all went Iwell." ���.-.*. "' Although I am not certain of the date, it was probably some time before the turn of the century that SS. Redempteur was converted into a meeting hall. Here is was that such notable leaders as Chief Julius, Chief Tom and Chief George consulted together, dispensed justice and transacted business with government representatives. Here, too, the band as a whole gathered to^ participate in decision making. In January 1906 the twin-towered Our Lady of the Rosary was destroyed by fire, but both SS. Redempteur 'and the misslonaires house survived the nearby blaze. By the spring of 1907 a new church, the fourth on the site, had been erected and dedicated under the name of Our Lady of Lourdes, the first, of that ilk in Sechelt. The Dept. of Indian Affairs In 1923-1924 expended some $2,685 "building bungalow1 for chaplain". This freed the original misslonaires house for other uses and Basil Joe took his family to live in the old home next door to the band hall, formerly SS. Redempteur. Through good times and bad the 1872 structure continued to serve the Indian community until the mid nlneteen-thirties. Then one day Just prior to the 24th of May holiday Clarence Joe, son of Basil Joe, was preparing for a trip to Nanaimo to attend the celebrations there. Not long before his departure afire broke out In the Joe home. What had been the first misslonaires house was destroyed by the conflagration and the house took with It SS. Redempteur. Thus ended a period of sixty years in the long history of the Sechelt Indians. . book "Early Indian Village Churches", published In 1977 by the University of B.C.

Redempteur I had a strong wish to find a photograph of the 1872 church, but -met-with n-_success.._vhen J..appU-SLfQ_iL assistance to a number of official archives and photographic collections as well as to Individual Indian people. However, I had in my own picture collection as least four views of the beautiful little domed building standing behind both Our Lady of the Rosary and Our Lady of Lourdes. The indications were strong that these views represented SS. Redempteur, but I could not confirm the identification. Then recently I had the good fortune to attend the birthday party of Mrs. Eliza August. Among the guests were her brother, David Paul, born March 17,1894, the senior gentleman now living on the Sechelt Reserve. He was pupil No. 6 at the first Indian school opened in 1904. When I showed a couple of photos of the domed building to Mr. Paul he instantly Identified the structure as the old church. This was done without any prompting from the author and also in the presence of Father J.W. Hennessy and Father T. Nicholson, O.M.I. John Veillette and Gary White in their youluavenbl; encounfe^T-ii_rbMk7pray' seek it out in a local bookstore or library. May the peace and dignity of Easter 1873 in Sechelt be found again now, 106 years later. far right, at this time converted into -meeting hall. -Two-storey���honrte between the churches was the first missionaries house, which burned in the mid 1930's, taking the 1872 church with it.

The Story of The Easter Bunny For Children in Germany, Easter Eve is an exciting time; for it is on this night that the OSTERHASE, or Easter Bunny, will visit the homes of those children who hove been very good all year. Boys and girls of all .ages go to bed early, believing that the OSTERHASE has passed them by/they spot one egg, then another, and soon another, until finally all the eggs are found. The children are delighted because they know that they have been good indeed. Here in America, the OSTERHASE is known as the Easter Bunny. By whatever name, he is still welcomed for the beautiful eggs he brings to good little children on Easter Day. TEACHER: Junior, your grammar is terrible. JUNIOR: I don't mind having you pick on me, but please leave my family out of it. CAN YOU FIND YOUR EASTER EGG? by Shelley McElroy The Easter Bunny has left you an Easter egg.

Fiji's history, its customs, its legends passed down from father to son, through generations and generations. Fair-skinned Fijians apparently come from Lenanesian strains. These were migrants from New Guinea, from the Solomons, and the New Hebrides groups. The more numerous dark-skinned people, with crinkly, bushy black hair, the men tall, robust; the women, always gracious, retain much of the proud bearing of their forebears from far-off Tanganyika, in Africa. Cannibal Past Today, they are= happy, and peaceful. But they have had their sorrows, for life was not always easy; nor were they always _-ranqu_L When challenged they quickly became fierce, and ferocious. They could be cruel, and [certainly many were cannibals. Sit in the front row at a Meke ��� the entertainment which includes native songs, and dances, and demonstrations of traditional ceremonial performances. I promise that you will shrink back in momentary fright from the furious onslaught _bf spear- jabbing, club-swiiiing warriors who,; almost too vividly, recreate the |wild gesticulations and threatening gestures of their tribal ancestors. It is hard to recognize, behind the painted whorls and slashes, the angry roars, the glittering eyes,;the happy, friendly big man whom yon saw, that day, grinning widely while weavingpalm-fronds into a cigar-shaped basket to be STAR T OFFIREWALKING CEREMONY, The stones are white-hot ��� yet the walkers'feet are not burned.

One of tie three fairest selling Canadian whiskies in the world. ^ buried, filled with fruits, vegetables, and pig, in a jovo ��� an earth-oven from which will come the most marvellous meal you have e^fer tasted. Captain Bligh took their bellicose antics seriously enough when, piloting the ship's boat bearing eighteen others who had been cast away by the mutineers of H.M.S. Bounty-.he sailed on without attempting to land. Bligh also knew, from navigational maps made by earlier Portugese explorers, and Abel Tasman, discoverer of New Zealand that the reefs were dangerous. So, for many years Fijians were left in peace to wage their own internecine wars between tribesmen from other islands of the group. It was not until the very late 1700's that fragrant sandalwood and tasty bech-de-mer brought traders to the islands, which,; in turn eventually forced unity upon. former enemies. This culminated, eventually, in a plea to Queen Victoria to accept the ceding of Fiji to Britain, which was granted on Saturday, October 10,1874. Warclub Used as Mace Cakobau, Fiji's greatest chieftain sent to the Queen his old and favourite- warclub as a gesture, of fealty; it was returned in 1932 to become the Mace of the Legislative Council. It still serves the Parliament of the now independent Dominion of Fiji. The cruel customs of Fiji, among which cannibalsim was the usual ending for vanquished warriors ��� a custom which existed even in Cakobau's day ��� are no more. But other customs,. the peaceful ones; the traditional skills which produce today's handcrafts; and many of the old legends; are still observed in use, and reenacted for the benefit of Visitors. Ornaments of shell, masi (Barkcloth), wood carvings and utensils, and pottery are the main handicraft products of Fiji. And, as always, it is the manner of making these, apart from the appearance of the finished article, that augments their value to the buyer. The selection of the tiny shells which are strung into a necklace, or a bracelet; the painstaking care with which they are matched as to shadings and sizes so that the colouring and uniformity are exact ��� these are artistic attributes which have been passed down through generations. Similarly, the making of masi is an ability which requires the "following of traditional methods if the finished cloth is to be a true example of manual work. It takes twelve hours to pound mulberry bark into the rough cloth.. Another dozen, and artistry, to apply the dyes to the pattern, and softening the fabric. And all that doesn't include the time required to assemble the ingredients ��� the barks, the saps, the sand and the clavs. - Firewalking A ceremony based on a legend is that of the Firewalkers ofBeqa. On that small island one day, says the tale passed down from father to son, a small-spirit god had become enmeshed iii a fishermen's net. In exchange for his life, the god gave to his captor the ability to walk on white-hot stones ��� the secret of which was, the spirit said, to be revealed only to the Sawau tribesmen of Bequ, a small islet off Fiji's Coral Coast. With many others j I watched these tribesmen, i; imported periodically by the Mocambo of Fiji, one of Nadi's popular resort- hotels, while they filleii a deep pit with stones which soon turned white from the tremendous heat generated by the tinder-dry palm leaves and hardwoods! which had been burning all day. I Sparks rise high intb the night as they sweep the stones with the Waga-bala-bala ��� a tree-fern trunk said to contain the Spirit God, after which the Bete :���" direct descendant of theTamily of the fisherman himself!��� tests the stones by jumping andlwalking on them. When satisfied he beckons to the others selected lo perform 'the ceremony. The only sound from the hushed audience comes when the firewalkers throw bundles of grass and leaves onto., the stones which immediately ignite. There is no way in which the stones are not as hot as they: look! For several minutes the firewalkers huddled in the pit's centre. My toes curled jnstincively as, imaginatively, I could feel my foot soles burning ���.:. then the unbumed bands of fern leaves which dangled from the ankles of each walker were buried, together with roots - called vasali - which�� syrnbolized the humans. AH would be dug up four jdays hence to complete the ceremony. Some say that the Spirit God -himself spreads out as ari 'insulator' atop the stones. Whatever is the secret only those! from Beqa could tell ��� but none ever has ��� or will. ! The legends of Fiji There are as many j legends as there are islands of Fiji, three hundred or more. ; The Red Prawns of Vatuele is one. The son of the chief- of a nearby island came to court the lovely princess of Vatulele. He brought with him his island's most famous dish ��� large, luscious prawns cooked to just right tenderness and redness. In distain, the haughty princess ordered that he ��� and his prawns ��� be thrown from a high cliff. To this day, bright red prawns swim in the pool of water beneath that Vatulele cliff, and there, and only there, grow too the kind of leaves in which the prawns were wrapped. Neither may be touched, for they are sacred, but go to Vatulele, you can. see them for yourself.

The main attraction is the invigorating pool, with 96 degree water fed by natural warm springs. Famed Lac Lebarge A little further along is the fabled Lake Lebarge, immortalized in Robert Service's "Cremation of Sam Magee". Then it's on to Fox Lake and Twin Lakes en route to Carmacks at Mile 102. Just across the river from Carmacks, the Campbell Highway takes off east to Faro, Ross River, and eventually Watson Lake. At Mile 115, a lookout on the west side of the highway offers a view of Five Finger Rapids, where in'the days of the riverboats, the cumbersome sternwheelers were forced to winch themselves through the white-water channel on their laboring journey upstream to Whitehorse. Campgrounds and highway lodges with full services are plentiful throughout the royte, and when the traveller reaches Stewart Crossing, he encounters another choice���either left to Dawson City, or a side-trip to . Mayo/Elsa before returning to the crossing and on to Dawson. The adventuresome motorist : and those with four-wheel-drive units will have a field day exploring the old mining roads and trails winding all over the hills and valleys of the mining district around Elsa, 65 miles from the fork. A drive to the top of Keno Hill will provide a breath-taking view of the central Yukon's panorama, and a unique signpost listing distances to the far corners of the earth is a favorite for photographers. The entire region - is a paradise for rock hounds. ...And on to Dawson Turning left at Stewart Crossing, it's on to Dawson City and the fabled Klondike gold- fields. Again, service centers are regularly spaced along the route, and the road is well-maintained.' About eighty miles along from Stewart Crossing, the junction of the northbound Dempster Highway is encountered. From the Dempster junction, it's only 20 miles to Dawson, and on the way, the road winds through the tailing piles left by the giant dredges which reworked the placer Creeks right up until the 1960's. A sidetrip into the Bonanza Creek Discovery claim is a must. Dawson has a truly remarkable array of attractions, and the first-time visitor should plan on at least a 2-3 day stopover in this historic former boomtown. After touring Dawson City and ��� the Klondike, the motorist undertakes the 60-mile road; to the Alaska border, certain to become one of his most memorable experiences. Known as the "Top of the World" highway, this! route follows the hilltops rather than , the valleys, and the scenery is simply magnificent. Services are scant, and the traveller should ensure to fuel up before crossing the Yukon on "the ferry for the drive to the border. The ferry operates '24 hours a day at Dawson. | Also important before setting out west from Dawson is to Check on customs regulation's, since the facilities at the border are not always operational; in some years it has been necessary forf the traveller to time his border airival during business hours only, j Once into Alaska, it's a 90|mile trip to rejoin the Alaska Highway at Tetlin Junction. VIEWS LIKE THIS enchctnt those visitoi s who take the Klondike Highway through Dawson to the border and the road is better as'well. -The Klondike Highway,Loop is an.. extremely interesting and Durin enjoyable trip a pleasant alternative for those parties .travelling the entire length of the Alaska Highway in both directions.1 it's a family car.

I Standardbreds are smaller than thoroughbreds, with longer bodies and heavier limbs. They are sturdier, quieter and.have more stamina. jTborongbbreds were developed id 17th and 18th-century England through a long process of selectively breeding native with oriental stock. j Native North Americans .Standardbreds are. native to Nbrth America: They hive a mixed ancestry of road hone ahd thoroughbred, and the French- Canadian horse, with its strong pacing tendencies, speed and stamina, is said to have contributed heavily to the breed. -Standardbreds were~developed in the first half of the 19th century arid were recognized as a separate breed in 1879. ��� There are 43 harness tracks in Canada,- one of the newest of. winch is- Gloverdale Raceway in O-bverdale, near Vancouver, British Columbia. Comfort, for both patrons and horsemen, is the keynote at Cloverdale. In addition to exceptional fad-ides for horses and their entourages, there is an enclosed heated grandstand for the public which was recently extended by 87-5 m (287 feet) and, byithe far mm, anew 35.4 m by 29.6 m (116 by 97 feet) two-storey club house where you can get a reserved table and buffet lunch whileyou watch the races. There are also the usual bars and hotdog stands. The track is hard-packed limestone, so stiff that a heavy ' roadgrader skimming off winter slush leaves no lire trace. Cloverdale's growth since its opening three years ago is astounding. Looking only, at,the first two months of each year, wagering totalled $4, million in 1976, $6.6 mi-Uon'in 1977 and $9 million in the first two months of 1978. Big money ��� In 1964,; Canadian harness racing wagers exceeded thoroughbred wagers for the first time. In 1977, $794 million was wagered on harness racing with $438 million on thoroughbred racing. The growth in harness racing is generally attributed to its lower economic plane which makes it available to more people. StJmdardbreds are usually bred at lower cost and eah more often be kept on small family farms. The 16,208 standardbreds listed by the Canadian Trotting Association ([C.T.A.) in December 1975 were split among 7^543 owners, although the trend, grows rapidly away from Ismail 'family operations to large breeding farms; I -:--.- ,7 7'��� .7 .Canada has more than its share of accomplished hdrses and drivers.

' ! ! After the opening ceremonies on August 2, somfc 1500 athletes will participate in two days of competition in a dozen different sports. On_ August 4, another opening ceremonies will be staged, and another 1500 athletes will begin anew round of sporting events. The Summer Games have to be classed as the most ambitious project in the history of Alberta's oldest community and newest city. St. Albert won the right to host the games in|a competition last year involving Edmonton and several other cities. I Volunteer organizers Soon after the gbverning body, the Alberta Games Council, made the announcement St. Albert City Council appointed a volunteer board of directors and the"St. Albert Summer Games Society was born. Dick Fowler, a former Mayor was named Chairman, and Lome Wood, Executive Director of the Alberta Schools Athletic Association, was appointed as Vice-Chairman. Mr. Fowler says the games will leave St. Albert with a legacy of human resources and facilities. He says the expertise and the experience which will be picked up by the volunteers involved (will be of tremendous value to the community after the games are history. A new $250,000 track will be the only major facility constructed for the games. It's to be located within walking distance of 4000 students at six schools and will meet a demand for track facilities which has been present for many years. ' Besides the track, a new Horseshoe Pitch will be constructed and paid for by the St. Albert Knights of Columbus. Their contribution will be nearly four thousand dollars.1 As well, vSgnyp ttAlba_t*79 ^ALBERTA SUMMER GAMES many other existing facilities jsuch as ball diamonds and soccer fields I > [Continued on Page 10] mm row Whejn world champion! oarsmen are stroking tq the finish line, they're probably racing a shell from Kaschper Shells Limited, of Lucan, Ontario.' | The company, which employs 14 ;.eople, manufactures the majority of racing .hells in competition today. Canadians, Americans and TEuropejms have all returned hope witl medals won rowing in Kaschper shells. And :he popularity of the sport is increasing each' year���-especially among] high-school athletes. The Canaiian Schoolboy J Rowing Char lpionships held | in St. Catherines, Ontario, this spring, for example, had 1500entries. Lwan, a quiet town just outsice London, Ontario, may seem an unlikely jplacej for the manufacture ' of Uniquely desigr ed.high quality shells���but to Jaccb Kaschper the location is perfect since his marl the entire continent] and'his major Canadian shells con :ern-in selecting a location���was ace ;ss to the major waterways of No th America. B owing is a very precise and gru slling sport, and the durability of jthe shell is,of utmost importance. Fragile-looking, yet - extiemely tough, these watercraft are ' marvels of evolutionary design. When rowing originated as a popular scholars' sport in the ���England of the 1860's, the skins of ijacing shells were cohstructed of a single ply of wood. This later gavi way to a sheet of plywood - ben over a central framework and nailed together. However, this method of construction coir pressed the inside wood, often causing tension, loss of- shape, and cracking. The new Vak-Shell hull featured in all Kaschper shells was designed to overcome these problems, to maximize speed, and min|mize friction. The shells are constructed, of attractive Hon-_ dur'as mahogany, Canadian ash. ft grown Si tka spruce, ahd JKey to] their manufacture is.a unique vacuum mold ever.which multiple skins are forned.

C. vrhek Organized cave visits are available for first lime. * ! By Shi-feyO-sen Gn_b | Vancouver Island's mysterious caves are about to surface. . Thai's because the famous Bmestone caves, long considered off limits for the average tourist, will emerge as one of this year's inost viable and novel iourist attractions, according to Karen Bischoff, secretary-treasurer of the B.C. Speleological Federation. \ Plans for tourists this summer include public education programs at selected caves, the opening of a "cave park" at Anutz Lake, and helicopter tours to an underground glacier near Gold River. ; And in the island's future, she says, is the opening of a heavily decorated cave as a major tourist attraction. Properly managed, it would have tour guides and underground walkways. A river cave near Port McNeill on Vancouver Island is typical of those being considered. "An underground river would be ideal for boat tours. As the boat moves through the cavern, the guide could shine his light on the glistening stalactites and stalagmites." The Port McNeill cave also features waterfalls, moon milk���soft shining limestone deposits���and "even pigmented trout swimming in one of the pools." The decision to promote caves to tourists is an about-face for the- B.C. Speleological Federation, which represents six B.C. caving groups. Past policy of a majority of B.C.'s serious cavers, called spelunkers, has been to closely guard new cave discoveries and keep cave locations a secret from the public���"to prevent rampant vandalism," explains Bischoff. " Gold mine ' But caving is a sport whose time has come, cavers say now. By ���opening caves-tb the public, they hope to hasten much-needed government legislation aimed at. protecting and preserving caves. Vancouver Island, they say, is sitting on a tourist gold mine. "The island has some of trie best available caving in Canada," says Bischoff. "We've inventoried more than 650-caves, and there are probably thousand- more, undiscovered. Why not follow the lead of other countries lucky enough to have limestone ��� deposits, and make use of these caves for tourism, recreation, education and scientific study?" Geological conditions are ideal for cave formation on Vancouver Island, and limestone corridors hundreds of thousands of years old lead to a subterranean world of lakes, rapids, football field sized halls, and chambers bristling with formations. "\ 'Devil's bath' The northern half of the island, in particular, has been called a cave explorer's paradise, and will be the focus of this summer's tourist caving promotion.

A time to spawn ��� The An and the Trout :ler By Chris Houston Dusk gently blankets the cool evening, and the tired angler must strain to catch a glimpse of his glistening line as it flashes out for the umpteenth last cast. Obligations for departure are crowded by a vision,, a dream of excitement. Suddenly the silence cracks open wide...a . screeching reel strains to keep its tenuous hold upon its master's gold. Later, with blistered fingers, aching back, yet jubilant beyond measure, the angler, armed with a story for life, trundles home... The experience of actually catching the 'big-one-that-got away' is rare. -The angler who by artful wiles or sheer luck sue cessfully courts the record books may be outnumbered by the rest of us, but he's in happy company. . Annually many thousands of anglers fish the freshwaters of British Columbia and, Alberta. It is the search for. that big one that drives thousands of local residents and visitors from unimagined places to try their luck.1 However, not all rivers or lakes give shelter to the trophy fish Just as some people are tall and others short, so there is diversity amongst fish populations: one lake characteristically! has large fish���another small." But within each population of trout there are certain factors that influence the size of the fish when caught. For the steelheader.i the size of his trophy is very much deter mined by the number of years the fish remains at sea before returning to spawn for the first time. A male returning after only wone year at sea may, be just 3-4 lbs., whereas one which spent four years at sea before returning to spawn for the first time, may be over 30 lbs.���a major difference! In lakes, the situation is a little different since the trout is i available to the angler for most of the year. In many lakes a larg�� proportion of the ' male trout population originating in hatj- cheries spawns in its'- second year at a length of 8-10 inches. Thus a male spawning for the first time during his second summer is, as far as the angler is concerned,, either unfit to eat or up a creek and legally untouchable. All the time he is losing ground in a growth race with his brothers and sisters who for some reason are not going to spawn i for another ye"ar. In- both the j ocean-goinjg steelhead and the lake-dwelling rainbow trout, the size of the fish caught is related to the age at first spawning. | Our problem is with the male >: how can we avoid| their eary maturation and so get them to contribute to greater size potentijal for the angler's catch? , The factors influencing age at , maturation is under study by the Fisheries Research Section of the B.C. Fish and Wildlife Branch. We know, the problem and we think we know some solutions. ! The brightest star of hope seems to point towards genetic control, which although fraught with unknowns may provide : a means by which we are able to increase the age at first piaturity in both lake rainbow tijout and anadromous steelhead. Ijf we are successful, we can look tjoward a better-managed fishery j and a more exciting and productive day for the angler. \ (The author conducts jfisheries research for the Fish and .Wildlife Branch.

The average one wed. trip would require five or six map sheas, not prc^iibi-rvdy bulky, and the wealth of detailed information wamnts the added expense and actra paper. 7_ The topo map shows the exact shape and location of lakes and rivers, roads, bin-dings, bridges and a whole Est (93 items of detail) of man-made or natural geological features including mountains, valleys and marshland. Readiaf amap Even the gradient of tbt river can be cak-otaied to determine the rate of flow and degree of difficulty rdatnig to fast water. The reading and interpretation of contour lines convey a mental picture to the experienced map reader of the actual terrain. A contour, inddentally, is a meandering circuitous fine that ind-cates terrain of the same level or common elevation. The contour interval {difference in elevation) on Canada's 1:50,000 maps can be either 25 feet or 50 feet depending whether the land be re-al-vely ;flat or varied mountainous terrain. To exemplify; this on a topo map, note a relatively small circle inside a larger outer circle; the distance between the two fines at a given point is perh^K one-half inch indicating the difference in elevation is 50 feet in slightly more than one-half mile. ! Contour lines never intersect each other, but when two or more fines converge, along a river for example, this indicates a steep cliff. Converging contour lines on both sides of the river indicate a high-walled canyon which may offer limited opportunities for the f pyageurs to pull out should they encounter unmanageable waters. Hazards noted Such hazards as falls and rapids are marked (note legend on back of map listing over 90 features and equivalent symbols), but such detail is no excuse for neglecting to reconnoiter ashore before attempting a run in white water. I The topo map's detail is compiled from aerial photographs taken in early spring when the water is high, and before the waterways are partially obscured by summer vegetation.

They are either dropped into the water at or near a pier while being attached to a boat, or the clamp screws! work loose and they are lost overboard while running. j Service personnel at Evinrude Motors offer some bits of advice in the event this happens. If a motor is lost bverboarc while running, it should alw iys be disassembled before any uttempt is made to start it. Wlen the motor is dunked while running, cool water invariably comes in -contact with hot internal parts. This often springs the parts, and running under those corditions will cause damage. The best advice here is to consult your marine dealer. He is best e. [uipped to handle the situation. A motor dunked in fresl . water, provided it was not running at the time, can. normally be started safely if recovered wit! tin 12 hours, providing no sand or silt is evident.Remove the spark plugs, the carburetor orifice sere1 vs, and drain all fuel lines and tar k. Pull the starter rope until all water has been expelled. Squirt some motor oil into the spark plug holes. Reassemble the motor and start it. If it starts, it ^:an likely be run without damage.; A motor lost overboard in-salt water presents more of a pi oblem. If not recovered immediat :ly, the motor should be disassemb led and cleaned before ah attempt s made to start it.

On the first two days of the competition the athletes will compete in Archery, Canoeing, Ladies Field Hockey, Golf, Swimming, Junior Tennis, Team Pentathalon, Junior Soccer, arid Baseball. Parachuting is planned as a demonstration sport during the two opening ceremonies.

Ten different extrusions go into each shell. They are virtually "made to order" each time, as technical specifications often vary from shell to shell. As a result, a design for a frame extrusion may be used only once. Seven types of racing shells are used in competition today.

"With the j price of 1 feed these days, it don't pjiy for us to raise 'em ourselves.f \ ��� j��� i Behind the gentle rjumor lay [a harsh reality. Thei small, family ranches���and the molt romantic, individualistic figure in tlie Canadian West, i the working cowboy���are steadily vanishing from the rolling i grasslands of" southern Alberta. On the same terrain, where their, ancestors survived brutal storms, outlaws, and marauding Indians, third ani fourth generation ! cattlemen are being defeated by rising operational costs and replaced b^ mammoth, . mechanized agribusinesses. Yet hundreds are stubbornly hanging on, and Tom Keaton is one of them. . ! "Cowboying got into my system young," he says, sitting over a cup of coffee at his kitchen table.' '*My dad was a rancher, and so was his dad. Me, I'm a drifter. When winter comes to Alberta, I go to i Texas. When , spring comes to Texas, I go to Montana: Long as there's some small ranches around, I'll work them." j Lean, balding, and 37, Keaton has never had a city job, but he did spend a month oh a 25O,O0Of acre spread near San Antonio. "It was like downtown Calgary.; There were so many hired hands I didn't know their names.- Wei checked fences arid rounded upj cattle in jeeps. The only time thei manager saw his land was from a two-seater plane. He'd get mad if he was in a corral and his jeans got mud on them."! j On the 10,000-acre Smith ranch, Keaton is ; the; only hired hand. He bunks in a tiny room! upstairs in the white frame ranch! house and, shunning Smith's four-wheel drive, rides a bay everywhere he cani His wardrobe consists of two denim outfits, a worn black Stetson, and a narrow-lapel grayj suit that he wears to Saturday night dances. Rodeos have changed "I used to go toi rodeos. Never missed the Calgary Stampede. Not anymore. Working cowboys aren't the big stars. For the past 10 years, special' schools have been teaching city kids how to ride and bust broncs. Sbme colleges in the United States even give rodeo scholarships. There's money in it now. Champions i fly their own planes and do a rodeo a day. And some are gentlemen ranchers ��� they've never worked on a real ranch." [ To Keaton's chagrin, the people he meets on Greyhound buses (the way he travels across the continent) have little1 knowledge of I what a cowboy actually does. They seem to think he sits on a horse all day, watching cattle and strumming a guitar. In truth, cowboying is hard labor. Up at | dawn to build corrals, herd cattle, | train cow ponies, br string barbed wire. In July cowboys endure ' mosquitos and heat to ,b(rand CO is a calves. In January they hunt strays, chop water holes in frozen ponds, or nurse sick cattle, all the while worrying abbujt blizzards.

"I can't > say in words what it's like to be in the hills, alone under a wide, blue sky, knowing you're doing a good job; how it is when the seasons change.

The favorite game of catch-up of that day was matching or countering tie moves of the North West Company, ensconced in the fur trading post of Fort Augustas-dose by, for all of a month or two. = In 1795 WflHam Tomison, an employee of the "Company of Young Adventurers Trading into Hudson's Bay" built the first of what was to become a series of Fort Edmontons. He chose the name because Edmonton, England was the birthplace of Sir James-JW-nter-Lake, then deputy governor of the company. The first fort was 25 miles downstream DOWNTOWN EDMONTON looks and more fun than many of its North from present-day Edmonton, another was 100 miles downstream, several were on the present site of the city, and the. final Fort Edmonton was built in the 1820's on what is now the lawn ^ below the Alberta Legislative Buildings in the heart of the city.

No civil government Edmonton's; first 'civilian' residents, retiring fur traders,; weren't allowed to take up land outside the fort walls- until the mid-1800's, about the time the; missionaries began to arrive. No; civil government of any kind would appear until after the Hudson's Bay Co. sold Rupert's; Land, vast stretches of the west and northwest, to Canada. Growth was slow but steady and on February 1, 1892, the village was declared the Town of Edmonton by; N.W.T. CtHincil ordinance, the body of governmental jurisdiction of most of what was Rupert's Land before the Hudson's Bay relinquished it. With the 1]892 population at 700, it was ready for the "arrival of steel", even if arrival fell one large river's width and a couple of miles short. The Canadian Pacific Railways branch line from Calgary reached Strathcona, the community directly south across the river from Edmonton. The Klondike influx j Hundreds came to Edmonton in 18% to traverse the overland route to thei goldfields of the Klondike. Homesteaders rushed ih to take up farming on the rich agricultural land surrounding the city. ��� in the year 1911-12 it climbed to 53,611 from 24,900. Not only was the "Great Land Boom" of 1910- 13 on,- but the merger between rival Strathcona and Edmonton occurred onP July 12, 1912, bringing in 5,579 new citizens and uniting the populations on both sides of the North Saskatchewan. Modern Edmonton began to take shape after the discovery of oil in 1947 at Leduc, 18 miles southwest of the city. In the years since the discovery of oil, Edmonton has increased in population by 359 percent of the entire population of the Province of Alberta. None of these benchmarks, however, brought the sheer joy that did the City Charter on October 8, 1904. That day will be relived this year. The memory of Mayor Short and his Council; savoring the event in their little Chambers above the first fire hall on 98 Street, will be refreshened in many ways. ; Today, Edmonton is launching its celebrations for 1979.

It takes place on' two Fij an islands ��� but the two differ in legend and kind. On Koro, he legend goes, a curious tribesman defied tradition to jspy on :he giant turtles during a forbidderi period. The sea-god saw him, end rose in wrath, the man fell de id. On the spot where he lay a tree and banquets bring excitement m grew, and its fruit is a small nut in the shape of the shell of a turtle. It grows nowhere else in the world. And, [at certain proscribed times, wfhen|the islanders call,! the giant turtle.? will come and rriass below tjie cliff where that-tree grows. "j Onj the other island] Kadavir, giant j turtles vappear at tjhe calling of the women of Namuana village. They" are, it is said, the descendants of two lovely ladies of that village who jumped into the sea to avoid being captured by villanofo Fishermen from the neighboring village of Nabukelevju. To preserve their lives, a kindly sea-god turned the -women into turtles. i *| Should you visit Kadavu Island at the right time, you may si| on a high cliff and watch! the. procession of village maidens, all dressed in mourning, as they ap- into quiet Fijian life proach - the beach, chanting a special song'. Look out into the bay. There will emerge the sacred turtles, to float serenly, listening to the singing. Only one thing: Don't come if you happen to be a villager from Nabukelevu. If so, the turtles will not appear! Yes, the lore of Fiji is, very much, an important part of the lure of these beautiful isles of the South Pacific.

Mj_ny homes in. this country already have fireplaces, biit most are oi-ly about one-tj-ird asefficiemasa|CK3dwoods-dve- ; Frist, some b4s_c stove terms. - A lac-taBt stove, as its name implies radiates heat through its walls directly! toward cooler surfaces in the room. The beat is absorbed by I walls, floors, ce-Sngs, and. icradia-ed -around the room. Har^awt wooctox-rning stop's produce warmth lhat travels in a str_|g__t line from the heated surface. Heat is then adsorbed by*objects in the room, ra-her- tha4 beating the _ air cfiredly- j j . - Cita_b-ti__t stoves, sometxmes- called convection stoves, have primary walk surrounded by an outer jacia.Pii->perr_f poat-oned,.. dn-tilatmg beaters w_D provide constant, even Jheat throughout the borne. Bt-ier of these two types may be an airtight stove, one whose joints are air^tted and sealed so that air enters the stove only through special vents or uon- airtig-t-. Quality sod design After determining whether you need a circulating or a radiant stove, the next step is to consider stoye quality and draft-control design. If you are serious --tout beating with wood, Bon't make ihe mi-take of buying any of the inexpensive, __a__-ai_tight stoves that have found their way onto tbe market. Cheaper non-airtight stoves may suffice for occasional use as garage or cabin heaters, but in general "thai*, low quality and lack of control over burning grates place them outside serious consideration for borne beating. Sucfi stoves!may be a fine substitute for a fireplace; but they are easily overloaded and do not Stave stiff-dent draft control to meter air correctly. They can easHy be overfired, or heated beyond their capacity.^-Also the economics of using leaky non- airtight stoves are questionable. While they may be les expensive to buy, the cost of the extra wood they burn (sometimes several times more than good airtight-) adds up. Even if you cut your own wood, a good airtight stove will help save your back. - ..- I When you b^niboppng, look specifically at draft control. There are two basic methods of control: fnamial and thermostatic (semiautomatic). The .manually controlled stoves are nearly all base burners���that is, they have no grates. Most of these stoves do a surprisingly good job of holding a certain bum-rate level, which you preset.

Coals may be present even after several <_ays,;aftthougJt little heat will be*^voi'off- The-best stoves -witb, this- type�� of "draft design are made of high-quality cast iron or heavy sheet steel. Sheet steel stoves should Tfciave a firebrick;;(or cast-iron) lining. ;;.^ Tbermc-statically controlled stoves are uiually designed to be used with grates. The control is a simple bimetal, strip or coil that relaxes as it is heated and contracts as it cools. In this way it can hold a preset level of hear output, and thereby control the rate of burn. 1 One disadvantage of the semiautomatic control is that when the fire goes^qut, the draft control is usually wide open. With grated ^stoves this almost always means that the fire will go completely out if not fueled in time. (The best, units can bold a fire at least 10 to 12 hours.) Also, draft failure can occur when thermostatic controls stick in either the closed or open .position. If stuck in the closed ' position, it simply means no fire. If stuck open, however, the unit could be overheated. Size and material ^Next consider stove size. How much space is going to be heated? 7 rates, - for- ; them Many .stove "buyers end up with large stdvesforsmallspacejs, and then buni; them at low which results". in credsotji jnation. Or, they operate normally and drive therriseh es out of tfie house with heat. If a ;stove is too small, trie tendency is to overfire itjtp produce the desired heat level J The tesult isTthatthe stove wears out long bef are it should. : Stoves j have a much shorter life when ^-constantly overfired.; 7- I- 7 The best way to figure sto ie size is to run ajheat Joss calctilat on on the space you want to heat with wood. If you h^ve a new home, you probably already know what the heat loss is. For most homes, this figure is approxirhateiy one third of the Btu output per hour, which is listed on your existing furnace. After you have a heat loss estimate, jyou can then consider stoves that will function ; in that output range. Manufacturers usually suggest the rate of Btu's per hour their stoves ^vyill be capable of producing'. By burning at a rate approximately one third to one .half of that, you can expect good stove performance over the long run. Figuring size this way gives you reserve capacity for the coldest days, biit allows you to burn ar a -- rate;jbigh enough to _ provide heat for the space you .want heated.-/i ; x ; They used to work header * [Continued from Page 11] Sheppard is 76. At Bradley's, the Hiih -River shop where cowboys^ buy thdr riding gear, a clerk told an inquiring journalist that if he wanted to talk to an authentic old-style cowboy; Sheppard was .the best bet. "There ^re only a, few left like Bert," a middle-aged cowhand ��� chimed, in. "He hates machines. Does all his cow work by horse;. Youjfl have to rope him to get him intoajeep." j The stocky, slow-talking Sheppard acknowledged - Ms dislike for mechanical devices.^ But, he said, even he has made , concessions-to modern times. The 17-000-acre Rio Alto ranch, of which he is part-owner, has electricity, running water, and propane^ A sharp contrast to the days when he hauled well water, cut firewoood, and burned . kerosene. "The gasoline .engine really hurt ranching. Cowboys still work hard but they _ used to work harder. Some fellas are so lazy they want to use machines instead of muscle. Just as bad, there's TV and radio. Young cowboys watch TV anji talk like their heroes. You ; don't get the same one-of-a-kind characters anymore. And radio���why, some youngsters won't ride range without a transistor plugged in their ear.'' A confirmed bachelor, " Sheppard rises early and puts in a 12-hour day, 16 during summer calling. He had his. own. ranch until 1957 when he sold out to accept the challenge of managing the Rio Alto. "Do whatever you want," he was informed, "as long as you earn one dollar for every dollar you spend." Sheppard and twoliired hands run 1,,500 head" on the Rio Alto, a.small ranch that has been in operation since :��._3. Sheppard's .enormous love of cowboying. has prompted.him to write two locally-publishectbdoks and a number of newspaper arfd magazine articles, in all his writing, he stresses the need to preserve what remains of the Old -"���: West "the golden days are gone. . The days when- Indians hunted buffalo and there was cattle from here to Saskatchewan. If ranching becomes a big, computerized ^business���ifthere's-no room for the little guy-^something very precious will be lost." ' Sheppard said the small ranches are hard pressed to keep young > cowhands. They stay a few . months, then leave, for higher- : paying jobs-in7town.- "It1takes three years to l^aih a cowboy properly,", he said, smiling."It takes two' years} to train a horse properly. Why I the "difference? Because a horse is smarter!" .A vital part: of a cowboy's apprenticeship involves herding. New cowboys have a tendency to gallop behind cattle, yelling and Whooping and chasing them in a . tight mass. "That's _dl wrong. In a big bunch of cattle there are always strong and weak animals, cows that; can't go fast, cows that will" collapse if they don't have ��� space. A herd should be strung out in a* thin line. Cattle travel best with the wind in their, faces. They like to smell what's in front of them, such as. watering holes. You have to be a master tactician to move cattle right." Born and raised on a nearby ranch, Sheppard knows practically everything there is to know about the local people. He knows how Bud Cotton took bawling calves across a swirling river in a leaky rowboat; how Sir Winston Churchill visited the Cartwright place when it belonged to the - Prince of Wales; how the grass is [Continued on Page 18] 1 ________ !

Because it's made of thesame high-impact material you'll find in football helmets and golf club heads, j The purpose of LINE-A-BED is to protect the bed of a new or used pickup truck, {to - enhance its appearance, to insulate the bed when it is used in conjunction with a topper or recreational equipment. With LINE-A-BED, a pickup truck owner can haul heavy equipment in it, carry sitrong alkali, manure, etc., without scratching, marring of otherwise damaging his truck bed. s ; Even if it didn't do anything, LINE-A-BED would be worth having just because it rttakes a pickup look so good. And made to stay that way. It's toughjeasy to I clean, resists stains, and it can even bej waxed. One piece protects the headwall.i side-walls and bed floor. Another slips right over the tailgate.

If you would like to miniate your home, but do not >|an| to do the work yourself, yoi fiay hire an insulation contractor to do the work for you. Sefefting a reliable contractor S. l^ery important. Insulation dial is improperly installed will continue to waste money, and _t can cause moisture damage to the* building. Most contractors I J are both knowledgeailef and reliable. However, yo�� sfould be cautious and make your selection carefully. The foUowirii |usest-ons from Northwestera |.-__i__es Limited and Canadian JrVes-Crn TiatBral Gas may helps I ' . . Prepare a fst pf about three or four insulation contraaor.- Ask for recommendations from friends, relatives or neighbors who may a_reai% have had work done. You ma^ also check .the yeflow pagei <|f tbe telephone directory m_de_j insulation applicators. ! { Be sure that} the contractors sekaed are licemed and bonded. Check the finincial stab-fity of tbe contractors} with the local Better Business I^reau. CfaecktHeir record Ask each contractor for a list of past customers jand check their satisfaction ���itS his work. "Ask bow long the foxf pany JB_ts been in business. Generally, the longer the better. Determine * whether the contractor's installers are paid by the hour or by the job. If they are paid by tbe job they may try to rush it- Ask each contraaor for a written estimate. Specify your needs in terms of R values, not in terms of thickness. For example, ask the contractor to quote on the addition of R28 insulation to the ceiling, not for adding nine inches of insuiation. A good contraaor will give your house a thorough check both inside and outside, before giving a quote. Watch for attention to detail. Insist on a detailed contract once you've chosen a contraaor. Make sure it includes a full' description of the work content, a warranty, and any liability provis-ons. Read . the contraa carefully before signing it. Does the contract specify the iype and amount of insulation to be installed in inches as well as in R Value? Is- there a delivery date in the contract? If something is unclear, or if you have any questions, ask before signing the contraa. Ask the contraaor to install a small metal plate (usually in the attic) recording the firm's name and tbe full details of the job. This a common practice which, because it leaves a permanent record, helps to insure conscientious workmanship. . Stick around I If possible be arhome when tbe insulation Is added. Count the number of bags, bats or blankets used to be sure your speciEcations ate met. If they are not, you might remind the contraaor that the v*ork is guaranteed and therefore, payment can be expeaed after completion of-the work. . Check the labels on the insolation bags (if loose fSI) or rolls - or bats. If there are no labels, the quality of the .insulation is unknown. Labels "will tdl-you the performance you on expea (R19 or R22, etc.) and tbe brand name of the insulation. If a contractor is using insulation without a brand name or R value, watch out! When the contraaor tells you he is finished, inspea his work. . Are 2x4 joists showing after six inches of insulation supposedly were installed? Did he leave the attic vents open? Did he cl_an up? Look closely at the insulation, are there any gaps in it? Does the insulation cover wall to wall? Does the insulation reach the corners? Is there anything covered by insulation that should not be covered, such as vents or recessed lighting fixtures? Any legitimate complaints regarding the work of the in- sularion applicators should be made first with the contraaor. If the problem has not been solved you should contaa the Better Business Bureau.

Several hundred strays and calves were recovered, and the ranchers declared the roundup a huge success}; Every spring thereafter, cowboys searched the plains for missing cattle, a tradition that lasted until the BULLRIDING AT CALGARY STAMPEDE. It's no longer cowboys that you see at rodeos but full-time professionals, old timers complain. Jeeps ride the range j [Continued from Page 16] scr short and dry farther east that ranchers need -50 to 60 acres "per head of cattle. "You learn a lot about life working with animals," he said, unhitching his saddle. "You have "too many steers in a pen, they'll start pushing and shoving, and pretty soon some will be trampled to death. Isn't that what's going on in cities? No, sir, you wouldn't get me in a city. I wouldn't give up this wonderful space out here. Not for a million dollars." Start of the stampede The~cowboys riding south from the High River region in April, 1884, expected problems. They were, after all, embarking on the Prairies' first big roundup and trail drive. Still, they did not anticipate the venture would take as long as it did���two months. Without fences, stray cattle wandered the vast, largely- unsettled plains to the south, and the 30-man contingent from the Bar-U, the Quorn, the Waldron, and other ranches were under orders to bring them 4jj?me- Torrential rains, swift, -swofi^n" rivers, and hungry wolf packs eoraplicated the task. The High River riders traveled 160 kilometres to rendezvous with wranglers working on ranches closer to the Montana' border. Together, almost 100 cowboys moved slowly north, combing spruce groves, coulees, and river beds for cattle carrying their brand. A one-time Montana Indian fighter, Bar-U foreman George Lane, was the trail boss. Accustomed to roaming free, the cattle resisted the cowboys' efforts to round them up. They also balked at crossing rivers. Men had to force the animals into the water and, to keep the cattle " from returning to shore, they rode beside them, their horses swimming against, treacherous currents. Wagons bogged down in mud, and on rainy nights wranglers slept in the open, under a blanket and the waterproof slicker they had worn all day. Despite the adverse conditions, the camaraderie was immense. The cowhands joked, sang, and exchanged tall tales and, when someone brought a string of wild horses into camp at twilight, the men decided to hold a bucking contest. All ranchers employed bronc-busting specialists and, naturally, every outfit claimed its man could tame anything on four legs. Trail boss Lane told the contestants that whoever rode a mount to a standstill would be the introduction ofi the barbed-wire fence. The bronc-busting competitions during roundups evolved into small-town rodeos. In 1912 Lane and three other iroundup veterans convinced the Calgary Exhibition Association to stage a week-long rodeo. Now wealthy men, the four agreed to pick up the .bill if the event weht bankrupt.- It didn't. The rodeo was, of course, the Calgary Stampede, which now draws more than" one million visitors every summer. Land for a barn Standing under a warm noon sun, Alan Baker pointed across his yard to a large, new barn and said it had cost more than 5100,000. He was.proud to have the building, he admitted, but he "had to make a jtough sacrifice to get it. "I sold a big piece of land-/' he said. "That's'not an easy thing for a rancher j to do. You feel attached to thei land you've got. But I had to improve my operation. Either that or risk going out of business." The tall, genial Baker owns the Bar-U, the once-afflUent spread that has shrunk during the decades from j 100,000 acres to 10,000. A,HighURiver farmer, he bought the ranch in 1957 and, during lean years, he fleshed out his income working as a country auctioneer. With the barn, two four-wheel drives, ' and other innovations, he! feels the Bar-U has a better chance of surviving. The way thej cattle industry is going, Baker said, only fools or die-hard romantics will want to own small ranches. "Still and all, I'm optimistic.j Maybe the small ranches will make a comeback. People once said George Lane and the others were settle a frozen sir, they made a fools for trying to wasteland. Well, ! go of it and, with luck and patience, maybe we will too.

Why? At ih4re��em International Congress of Nipition in Brazil, Dr. Parizkova, ftom C-_a_h_oslova--i--i described some changes in body composition and functioning fthfct occur adults become ninner-. It's easy to r&ognize lhat your appearance ifnpsoves because you increase yom fat-scle tone and total muscle^ mjkss. But rousing also decreases tlje total amount of fat yon stow ts adipose tissue thus further changing the ratio of muscle to fat. Hot all forms of exercise can kirieve sudi a dramatic effect For cxair^e, although sw__r_-__-_i will increase muscle tone intj mass It can also increase fat storfge. And research indicates tbf sedentary person cannot achieve this lower levd of fat storage by limply restricting calories. j \ Animal studies'-ndkatc that as the body adapt! to exercise and aerobic capirit|r increases, 'the body*s fat I handling methods change. Thert isfan increase ini the body's ability tt> convert stored fat from the adipose tissue .fat depots into ffeeffatty acids th-the blood stream. Jy. tbe same time, the body ina-easfs its ability touse these free fat^y adds as j an aerobic source i>f energy in the skeletal muscles ind the heart.; In other woris. the fat depot becomes a ? djjnamic reservoir which can be} converted into energy when; rtpjuired, and j��he muscles are*lei dependent.on carbohydrate! as an anaerobic source of energjf. When you stop exercising regularly; your body rapidly loses its ^biity to convert stored fat imp ftjpe fatty adds and to use these as a Source of energy: ihe fat depots rftum to the inert state and can bnly~be reduced with difficulty. _ The relative proportions \ of muscle and fat ia your body have a direct bearing on the amaimt you can eat. The highly active component of the cells of your body ��� tbe component that requires to be "fed" ��� is proton. The rest of the cells consists of water and fat, winch are virtually non-reactive: they don't use energy. Muscle consists of 22���� protein and n*h water and fat, whileifal tissue has only 6% protein voth tbe Temaming S*4% bong water and fat. A taghfa- proportion of muscle means tfcjat your runner's body wiB work harder even while resting: your basal metabolic rate w-Dbebigber. And that's not all tlie good news. Studies with active adult animals show that as the adipose tissue fat storage depots are decreasing in size, the activity-��� - equals''energyconsumption���"of the remaining appose tissue may be going lip ytthough still remaining at a lower metabolic level than that of muscle tissue). If this holds goad for humans, it again translates! into a higher caloric need; just to maintain norma] weight and functioning. So even at r��bt, without the miks you run, as a runner you are burning more calories and fighting flab more su-cessMly than your sedentiry peer, as long as you continue tp exercise. What are tha nutritional i__Q_ plications of Dr. Parizkova's research? First, with all increased need for calories yoo have the op- portuntity to consume more wholesome foods. You can thus remove yourselfi from the borderline 'starvation diet that many of your inactive colleagues have to follow to maintain their weight. As an example, a 35-year-old 5*4" female weighting 115 lbs who is sedentary has a dairy requirement of 1800 calories. But if she runs three miks each day, she needs 2500 calories to old standards which do "not account for variances in the proportion of muscle to fat). 1600 calories is tbe minimum intake which, if she chooses carefully, wiD give her the mmt_Qum nutrients she requires, with little room for individual variation in nntrient- needs, or taste preferences. {Second, since tbe preferred fuel becomes fat, it will be interesting to, note the results of the future research to find out how much body fat a runner should ideally rpamtam weight (and that's using have for optimum performance.

While the return of the bluebirds is the classic herald of spring, each area of our country has its special indicators that prove winter has lost its grip and that spring is on the way. My nomination for spring harbinger in the Columbia Mountains is the -lowering of the Skunk Cabbage. This year (1978) I first spotted the bold yellow spikes of the Dowering Skunk Cabbage on March 10th ��� almost two weeks before the "offidal" start of spring and at a time when most of our area was still covered in snow. They were sprouting up from a tiny swamp embraced by the first switch-back on the Mount Revelstoke Summit Road and at that time were being challenged every night by icy films trying to regain hold on the tiny puddle. . By late March the prophecy of these vanguard flowers had been fulfilled. Life and activity flooded the valley bottoms arid started to lap up the edges of the mountainsides. Early April saw the- swamp lands in the Lauretta Picnic Area of Mount Revelstoke boasting thousands of flowering Skunk Cabbage. A few weeks later and at a slightly higher elevation in the Beaver River Valley of Glacier National Park, the yellow spikes again proclaimed spring's untiring advance. By the end of the month many other plants had joined the ' procession including willows, alders, hazelnuts,' mountain box arid a few wild strawberries. : Butterflies Return During this same period of time life also began to stir amongst the parks' animal populations. On March 14th Park Gate Attendant, Ted - Haggerstone, reported Coyotes mating along the Trans- Canada Highway, .About" the same time our roadside Ravens were obviously entering their breeding cycle. On March 20th, I heard the. first eerie twang of the Varied; Thrush and the next day butterflies of several species were basking in the first warm rays of the sun along a gravel road "in _Mount7Revelstoke. By the end of March,yGrizzly Bear tracks had bee_rs|>otted ih Glacier National Park. Since that time a host .of insects, amphibians, and mammals have emerged from SKUNK CABBAGE harbingers of spri, Mountains.

Cat lovers only tolerable to each [Continued from Page 21] more of these things every year, you know. "I know why people buy them, though. Men buy them. There's something sexy about aleopard or an ocelot. Girls look at them and they just go bababas, and there you are. The trouble is that .later on the guy will get engaged, and the girl will start thinking about life with this cougar or something in the living room. Suddenly I've got another big cat on my hands." We go downstairs into the sharp stinging smell of big cat. The animals" move impatiently in their cages���the leopard, the ocelots, the tiny leopard cats, and Bart, the 165-pound, two metre- long mountain lion, who sweeps back and forth behind the bars, sizing up my brisket. " - "He's very jealous," says Valliere. "He thinks I'm his mate and, as far as he's concerned, you're just another big cat cutting in on his furf. You could pet that ocelot over at the end, though, between the bars. His name is Oscar." Oscar is small, lithe, and spotted. He rubs his muzzle against my hand in a familiar manner. "Now, he's an example, Oscar is," says Valliere. "We got him from a small-town zoo, and he was in sad shape���de'clawed, front and back, and de-fanged. They took out his killer teeth. He's all right now. It's okay if he takes your hand in his mouth, but just at the front. Don't let him get his back teeth on it or he might' bite down.*' Oscar munches at my fingers, other dreaming, perfiaps, of more capable days. 'We're building bigger cages for them upstairs," says Valliere. "And we're looking around for land in the country where we can see to them properly. I don't want to keep them here, but what else am 1 going to do?" j Upstairs, Valliere sells me a membership in his Endangered Animal "Sanctuary to be built, with luck, on that land in the country, if he finds it; anal I watch a reticulated python eat a white rat. I hear about John, the macaw, who has to be kept in a cage because he likes to land on people's *shoulders and ,'puli off their wigs, ahd then I leave, feeling the leopard's . booniing cough through the soles of my feet as I walk through the door. Cats live longer than dogs do. Beadle estimates that the tough ones make.it to 30 years. Max is now a little more than a year old; with luck he'll be alive until about the year 2005. (Emily, if I'm any judge, will have fussed herself out long before then.) I will be 62. It's an affecting picture, the old man and the old cat, sitting on a 'front porch���affecting, at least, when it is 30 years in the future. Max will still be a pain in the neck. I hope I will be, too. In 2005 it may be fashionable to keep lizards, sandpipers, or yaksr It may be that there will only be one Cat Bore left. Bp kind to an old man and an old" cat. Visit us on our front porch, and I will tell you why cats j eat mice only from the head end I on down. It's all in Beadle. 7By Calvin Chong The tomato is probably our most popular igarden'v<g;table. Even in the smallest garden, there is always room for a few tomato plants; The tomato;is easy to grow and is adapted to a yiide y ir iety ol * soil aiid garden \ writhtipns Originating in tippicWAr^Kai 1 is ah 7 herbaceoiis| ^ r%nia botariieaiiy related torthe potato pepper ahjd 'eggp.arit7 1a| terri. perate climatesi-virhere: the tpmatti is grown outdoors/it is kifled by frost before completing ;hefirs: year's growth; In716th century Europe, it was known as .the "Love Apple," and in sbnn; . quarters the fruit was coi lsidered poisonous to eat. ; ; i Pref er warm clim^l e The tomato requires7 a Idhi, warm season of VA to 4 nonths to complete the cycle from seed first mature fruits. I In bur northern, tejrriperate climate, ton_atoes are hot usually . successful if seeded dutidooi Seeds of' most varieties germinate satisfactorily soil. At 50 degrees F (10 degri C), tomato seeds come up i 125 30 days compared with 4 to 5 days at 85 degrees F(29:degrees C). In' most parts of Canada, only earjy and mid-season varieties start* from plants set out in the gard after danger of frost is pa��t, wi [I ripen a satisfactory crop. Growth of tomato plants is best under uniformlymbiierate temperatures of between 65 degrees and 85 degrees F (U degrees and 29 degree. C). Depending on length or severity of exposure to chilling, the plants may be temporarily or seriously impaired by temperatures below 50 degrees F (10 degrees Q I. Tomato plants conti m ie to flower and set fruits, unles. growth is cheeked by disease or- frost. Flowering normally .ccur* within 12 days after ] garder planting, with the first cluster oi fruits setting a few days; later (Figure 1). A tomato fruit requires about 60 days from the beginning of fruit set to maturity. Depending on variety and management; five clusters of fruit per p lant can be expected 'to ripen during the harvest season. Each plifster usually yields 1 to 1'/_ pounds (500 to 750 g) of tomatoes, jbr 5 to 7 pounds (2.25 to 3720 klg) per plant. Early varieties tend to bear- fruit over a shorter period of time than late varieties; ';���'���'/ f Choose good Variety-/. The wide choice of shapes, sizes and colors of tomato varieties often overwhelms home; gar deners. It is important to' choose, varieties well adapted to' local growing conditions, such ^s those already known for performance in your district. Tomato jarieties sold by local garden J stores, usually: produce a satisfactory crop. | j Start with vigorous plants It is usually more practibal/and less costly for the home gardener, to .buy greenhouse-grown tomato seedlings from garden stores| than to grow plants from seed. For best results, select stocky, medium- green, vigorous plants between 7 and 9 inches (18 to 23 cm) tall. If, on the other hand, you can provide proper flighting and temperatures, ypu; may wish to grow your own seedlings indoors or in a hotbed. j The tbmato plant is adapted to a wide varietyof soils but unhss well supplied with; plant food, it yields :;pcoriy77P-ga-_ic matter such as well-rotted manure7 or compost improves the physiial structure/ of the7 soil. - ���;��� Avgb bd garden soil should[always cohti tin ' a liberal stipply ofprg^riic matt er, / Its^ ;y^pe,|7pMricularly 7ih; sar dy arid; 7clay'._[ spijs77 cannot 7 be -: weremph^ized.777':7-7777777 ���7 It h- dittitult7tp Trioake spec; fie "; recommendations }/for7; fertili reir 7;applipations7ait; the/time: of? soil; ; preparation;7 Re^mrdmetits vj iry Twidely/dapgndingybn:the Iriittai fertility/,of7 the;':soil 7ahd : llie richness/and; Amount7ofTadded manure ;Or/comp|6&^^^ :bf W;p-rit-per^p-aht( 25^ 'pounds per7I(^ ^are iieet (1.
