CASTLEGAR NEWS, Thursday, May 28, 1959

Give Money Now;

Silver Birch School for Handicapped Chil-
dren will close September 1 unless the direc-
tors find $432 by that date.

Closing of the schoo! would be a loss
not only to the Castlegar District, but also to
the work interested individuals are doing in
the handicapped field throughout B.C. Start-
ing with eight chapters in 1955, the B.C. Soc-
iety for Handicapped Children has grown in
the past four years to an organization ‘with
40 chopters.

Loss of the Castlegar School would mean
the society will have one mark against it in
negotiations with the provincial government
for increased aid to schools for the mentally
retarde:

The provincial government has indicated
the. department of education will now estab-
lish classrooms where 10 or more retarded
students are enroled. Silver Birch has four
students and may have one or two more by
September — still four short of the necessary
10, *

Liberal Resolution

Help Silver Birch.

The school board here has been gener-
ous with Silver Birch School. A free classroom
is provided and students ride free on school
buses so there are no transportation costs to
be met by the local » However,

Kiddies Park Ready
For Poo! and Swings

off and in good condition parks
chairman Gordon Pettltt told the
Castlegar council at Its recent
meeting.

Mr. Pettitt said the park Is
now ready for various organiza-
tions to put in equipment such as
wading pools and swings.

Three Accidents
Mar Gominco’s
Safety Record

Releasing figures which
showed only three lost-time ac-|
eldents throughout all Cominco
operations during. the first 25
days of Safety Month, J. B, Biker
said ‘Tuesday morning that so
far employees had given “a splen-
did performance.”

‘Mr. Biker, supervisor of the
safety and industrial hygiene de-|

the school board can do no more.

This means:the -$432-required must be
found elsewhere. There are only two other
places this money might be.found.~They are
the KRC, who have aleady:been ‘very gener-
ous, and the member organizations of Silver
Birch School,

By raising organization. memberships
$5 to $15, $235 could be raised. This leaves
another $1 97 to be found before September
in the Castlegar District teke out $2 member-
if the school is to remain open. If 99 persons
ships, the total sum needed will be met. The
residents should join now by giving $2 to the

Committing Suicide

The. Liberal party has been committing
suicide in Canada for several years. Now cer-
tain members of the Trail Men’s Liberal As-
sociation want it to commit suicide in Ross-
land-Trail.

At a recent meeting of the Trail assoc-
iation West Kootenay Liberal Association,
president G. L. (Flip) Fillipelli recommended
that locals be abolished in favor of one ex-
ecutive group in the Rossland-Trail electoral
district.

This is the type of reasoning that top
Libera! spokesmen fought against at the na-
tional Libera! convention that chose Lester
B, Pearson as national Liberal leader. Speak-
er after speaker emphasized that the main
reason for failing Liberal support was the
gulf between the brass and the grass. Now
some Liberals want this gulf widened i in Ross-
land-Trail.

Association president Andy Crichton
says he favor§ the resolution in principal, but
says it.must be submitted to locals in Ross-
land, Castlegar, Fruitvale and the Trail Wo-
mens Liberal Association before being voted
on at the Annual general meeting of the
Rossland-Trail Association slated for the end
of this month.

Local Liberals would be smart to defeat
the motion in Castlegar and work to have it
defeated at the annual meeting. !f.they don’t

there will be a lot of happy Socreds, Conserva-
tives and CCFers in this riding for the Liber-
als will have a handicap that not even Dr.
Krause with. his strong personal following
will be able to overcome.

HANDS

If mine were but the artist's hands
They’d paint such scenic views,

Of mountains high and rivers’ swift,
And trees of varying hues.

If mine were but the writer’s hands,
They'd weave pure poetry,

And gems of thought so rare, profound,
Would claim posterity.

If mine were the musician’s hands
Such melodies they’d create!

Celestial sengs of sheer delight

Heard only at heaven's gate.

But mine are just plain wifely hands
That cook and clean and sew,

And dry up tears and quiet small fears
And keep the lamps of home aglow.
Yet little hands reach out to me

To guide them as ! will,

| pray in them the gift will be

Their sweet dreams to fulfill,

THE

TIMELESS

A WEEKLY MESSAGE FROM
CASTLEGAR MINISTERIAL —
ASSOCIATION

By MIss F. CLEMO

TOPICS

“Do you feel tired?’ is a question that
often Gppears in newspaper or magazine col-
umns ond after commenting upon your con-
dition states the remedy.

! suppose most of us have known what
it has meant to be tired. How difficult life
can become when you are in sucha state.
Everything becomes so much harder. If men-
tal and physical weariness can make life dif-
ficult, how much more sq con spiritual wear-
iness for this is the most vital part of our
lives.

There is o wonderful verse in the bible
which tells us about the secret of spiritual
strength: “They that wait upon the Lord
shall renew their strength, they shall mount

up with wings os eagles, they shalt walk and
not faint.” Isaiah 40:31

The writer spoke of the limitation of our
strength. It is something that needs to be re-
newed, We wonder how many Christians have
stopped to think of this and practiced steps
te meet the situation of spiritual weariness.

Why do we become spiritually tired? We
think of the exhaustion through service that
is bound to exist. Anyone who works hord
physically will get physically tired, mental
effort leads to mental weariness, spiritual
service leads to spiritual weariness.

Remember that the Lord Jesus Christ
knew that virtue had gone out: of him when
he healed the sick.

Anyone who neglects his body and heal-
th will soon discover that his strength is not
the same as others. But how often men and

women become spiritually tired for the same
reason: lack of food — feeding upon the word
of God; lack of fresh air — the prayer, life
and lack of cxercise witnessing to Christ.

Think also of enfeeblement through dis-
ease. Have you ever been really ill? Do you
remember the utter weakness that afflicted
your body? Sin, in the realm of spiritual dis-
ease, weakens the body. Samson “wist not
that the Lord had departed from him” but
his sin had broken the fellowship that once
had existed.

The verse not only speaks of our limited
strength, but also of the inspiration of our
strength. ‘‘They that wait upon the Lord
shall renew their srength."” Are you among
the company of believers who know-what this
is in their daily lives?

The derivation of strength is God ‘and is
found in the place of devotion with Him.
"They that wait upon the Lord.’ The latter
part of the verse speaks to us of nianifested
strength and soaring ‘vision.

“They -shall mount up as eagles, they
shall run and not be weary, they shall walk
and not faint.” The man who shares the vis-
ion of God will see beyond the immediate
present to the ultimate purpose.

Like the apostle Paul, he will see beyond |’

the difficulties to the goal that awaits him.
The words finally suggest plodding determin-
ation, “They shall walk and not faint.”

God‘s word gives the remedy to those
who are spiritually tired,

started a mile underground!

It’s a strange thought that a British Columbia miner wor' iting deep in. the
earth helped a California farmer grow better oranges: It’s true, though, and.’
the link that joiris these two experts is fertilizer.

From Cominco’s Sullivan Mine at Kimberley, B.C.,; comes a steady stream
of ore’ containing lead, zinc, other metals and sulphur. The sulphur is a key
product in. Cominco’s' big fertilizer industry. This 30-year-old. industry with
-a 2,000-man payroll } has grown from a few thousand tons sold almost entirely
on the Canadian Prairies to an output of 750,000 tons, -selling throughout
most of western North America and on many world markets.

Yes, the miners at the Sullivan Mine help thousands of farmers- get ‘more
money from hundreds of different crops. Of course, in between the mine and
the farm is a lot of “know-how” and skill, p™s plant= and equipment valued
at many millions of dollars — the normal but vital requirements of a successful 4

industry.
