When a doctor is consulted by a patient with a headache he collects as much information about the pain and discomfort and other symptoms as he can. ‘What the patient is able to tell the doctor remains the most important factor in finding the cause of the pain, If the diagnosis cannot be Cablevision Society Chooses Bud Godderis as Its Delegafe ~ The West Kootenay Cable- vision ‘Society (WKCS) has chosen Bud Godderis as its representative for the Cana- dian Radio and Television Com- mission (CRTC) hearings on cablevision regulations to be held in Ottawa; June 10.

Some of the basics -of ' weaving will be covered in this article, however, if you plan on taking up weaving, I would suggest taking instruction, as there are many variations and techniques which ean be used to create fabric. Basically, to make cloth there is one series of threa called “warp”. ‘These are held taut from front to back of the loom. The threads are then divided ‘to make an opening through which'a continuous thread, called the “weft” inter- laces with the warp at right angles. ‘You ean purchase a rigid heddle reed loom which makes “plain weave—which is the sim- plest, weaving pattern. ‘This loom consists of metal slats with a hole halfway, held in a frame., Usually six slats to an inch with six spaces be: tween, This gives 12 ends per inch. ‘When the rigid heddle is raised all the threads through . the holes are lifted. When the heddle is depressed ‘all these ‘ends are pushed down. : By this simple means the two aheds giving plain weave» are made. When extra decoration is . needed, the threads have to be “lifted almost like embroidery. Tt is possible. to'make delightful patterns in this way although, takes a great deal Before you begin you must make an‘accurate plan for the finished article. Try visualizing the end product. and working backwards. Letter to the Editor aM Measurers on How fo Battle the Fruit Fly Dear Sir: ‘This is in response to the ‘letter ‘written by Gladys Jen- sen, seeking recrults for her “battle of the fruit fly”. I, too, love cherries, and nearly every other fruit that we grow here, but I reacted to her, letter in the same manner that! react to any call to arms—with disgust. Perhaps the same disgust that she feels when she is contfonted by a worm in her ult abbing desperately fora chemical solution is an ignorant ‘and dangerous way tosolve any. problem.
