ALDERGROVE - The Alder Grove Telephone Museum and Community Archives will be officially dedicated this Saturday afternoon at 1 p.m. The Alder Grove Heritage Society invites everyone in the community to join the celebration at the historic FJ Hait/BC Tel Building in Kinsmen Heritage Park, 32 Avenue at 271 Street The society is preserving as much of the local history as their volunteers are able and have so far seen the publication of The Place Between, the moving and restoration of the Hart building and the Shortreed Cabin, and now the gathering and displaying of the telephone collection. This collection includes telegraph and linesmen equipment, switchboards, telephones and assorted items such as old phone books. This reflects the building's early use as Aldergrove's first telephone exchange, with much of the materials donated by members of the Telephone Pioneers. The building also houses archival information from the community, such as documents and photographs, which are being compiled by members. The building was first opened in 1910 as FJ Hart's real estate office, the Western Home & Improvement Co., along with a branch of the Bank of Toronto. BC Tel purchased it in 1912. The hours of operation are Tuesday to Friday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., and by appointment Admission is by donation. 40 CENTS FREE CLASSIFIEDS FOR STAR SUBSCRIBERS — INFORMATION INSIDE NFW HFFHTAGF PI AN Conservationists look to our future LANGLEY - The local heritage preservation movement had a bit of a se…
