Local Seventh-Day Adventists
Begin Ingathering Appeal

A mission program that
brings physical aid to more
than 11 million people each year
will receive a push from local
Seventh-day Adventist mem:
bers.

Pastor Zinner announced
that members began their 1978
annual Ingathering appeal on
Tuesday.

Besides providing other
physical needs, Seventh-day
Adventists treat thousands of
patients each day of the year in
the 185 hospitals and 274
medical units they operate
worldwide, the pastor said in
releasing his announcement.

“Some of these hospitals
are the only medical services
available in their areas. The
contributions of our friends will
mainly help to support our
clinics, dispensaries, medical
launches and airplanes in many
countries,” said Zinner.

“Fees paid in B.C. hospitals
cover the cost of hospital
maintenance end operation and
are usually well taken care of
by the B.C. medical program
and hospital insurance plans,
But, in most overseas countries,
where a sick person may pay
only a few dollars for a costly
operation and a lengthy stay,
additional financial assistance is
required.”

SEVENTH-DAY Adventluts operate a fleet of disaster vans,
like the one above, equipped for local emergencies—a

into charges that Manny Con-

“The AECB told me that

One of B.C.'s “fun-to-

belt of blacktop that winds

seekers of the 1860s.

Though gold finds on the
imilkameen were modest, the
5 Rock Creek diggings, 160 kilo-

ported to pay “from $20 to $100
per day to the hand”.

Access, via tiver- valley
routes north, was easy for the
U.S. residents, who got their
supplies by mule trains from
Oregon and Seattle.

Asa result, "British" gold
was leaving the country in the
Pockets of U.S. merchants—a
situation much deplored by
businessmen in New West:
minster and Victoria,

In addition, there was a
very real danger that the
strong U.S. population and
commercial interests would
overwhelm “British” claims to
the territory.

It was, therefore, impera-
tive that a “British” route be
cut through the mountains to
the gold fields,

Governor James Douglas
acted quickly: Young Edgar
Dewdney was commissioned to
build a 1.2-metre-wide pack
trail to the diggings.

In a move to force U.S,
miners to recognize “British”
sovereignty of the region, Gov-
ernor Douglas despatched a
gold commissioner to Rock
Creek.

But the surly U.S. citizens
refused to take out mining

A driver and his passenger
were taken to Castlegar and

midnight Sunday following a

metres west of Hugh Keenley-
side Dam.

Andre Ovila Lauzon of

tained an estimated $5,000

Instead, they stoned the
Queen's representative and
drove him’ out of town.

This rebellion brought
Governor Douglas out in per-
son. He was “impressive” in his
full, official uniform.

He quelled the “Rock
Creek War” with his usual
blend of common sense and
firmness, He promised, first, a
road from Hope; second, a visit
from 600 “British” marines if
the miners failed to obey Her
Majesty's laws.

The trail's first section was
soon completed to Vermillion
Forks—the present Princeton,

The following year work
began on the second section,
which passed through Kere-
meos and Osoyoos to Rock
Creek.

In 1864, another gold
strike was made at Wild Horse
Creck in the East Kootenays.
Dewdney was called again to
extend his trail.

It wound east, often “with-
in pistol shot” of the U.S.
border, and followed the valley
below Red Mountain and the
yet-to-be-discovered Rossland
gold mines, to Fort Steele and
the diggings at Wild Horse.

By the time Dewdney's
Trail was completed in 1865,
miners were already: moving
out of Wild Horse, following the
golden will-o'-the-wisp of fresh
strikes farther north,

But the course of Trans-
Canada Highway 3 was laid—
laid so well that much of the
704-kilometre trail has vanish-
ed beneath the sweep of today's
blacktop.

But here and there along
the way you can still find
segments of the track.

Two of the best sections
are to be found a few kilo-
metres inside the Manning
Park boundary east of Hope.

Watch for the gold and
green “Point of Interest” mark-
ers on the highway’s north side.

Take time to pull over and
get out: of your car.

If you care, you can even
