Tenderfoot: Eastern

Magazine

Doesn't Know Kootenay Area

The July issue of Canadian Homes and
Gardens has an article on “How to Redis-
cover, Canada.” It might be a good idea if
the editors of that magazine would try re-
discovering the Kootenays.

The short excursion the magazine
takes into the Kootenays hardly does us
justice. It notes that “Closer to the Rockies
than to the Coast.” the Arrow and Kootenay
Lakes district “is a beautiful land of ribbon

-lakés (though, alas, the lake stern-wheelers

have been retired) with mountains and min-
-ing ghost towns and orchards that you
reach by twisting cliff-edged roads.

“Not a tourist organized area, but a
serene retreat if you’d like to get away
from it all. Start at Nelson and go north-
ward up either lake chain. Kaslo on the
Kootenay is lovely at cherry-picking time.
New Denver on Siocan Lake is another
beauty spot.”

And that’s it. That’s all the “Inside tips
for wary eastern tenderfeet.” There’s no
mention of how to get to the: Kootenays
once you’re in B.C. or any mention of some
of our better-known beauty spots.

It’s no wonder that the Associated

B.C. are writing “a strong letter of protest”
to the magazine and sending a copy to the
department of recreation and conservation.
The article hardly does the Kootenays

justice.

Exit Youth

As petals from the rose do fall

And feathers from the bird in flight,

So youth relinquishes its bloom

And passes gracefully from sight.

And in its place Time ushers in

A Friend more mellow and serene

Suffusing us with an inner glow

Tempestuous Youth,had never seen.
Sigh not for years that have slipped by;
Regrets are whims we can ill afford.

From which the Future draws its just

reward.

any higher, He said it wes his
understanding that many people
owning that particular piece of
land were against subdivision at
this time.

He said that if that Jand is
subdivided and homes are built,
then the village will put in a
main and charge tle: residents
in the subdivision for the cost
of installing it. The village will
then reimburse thuse people ov-
er a five-year perlod.

Mr. Lambert then pointed out
that the proposed bylaw calls for
the extension of mains at the
north end of Kinnaird. At the pre-
sent time ‘the residents at that
end of Kinnaird are serviced by
plastic pipes.
“T agree with you that you've
got to put it in at the north end
of Kinnaird,” said Mr. Lambert,
but he wondered why the two dif-
ferent policies, Those persons
who eventually build on the yet-
to-be sugdivided and on the Up-
per Bench will have to pay the
cost of installing lines while those
at the north end of Kinnaird do
not have to.
Other residents said it. wasn't
fair to have two policies. “The

J, M. MacBeth sald the dif-
ference was that those lots at
the north end of Kinnaird now
have people living in - them
while the lots" in question on
the Upper Bench have no one

’ GOING AWAY
‘Most of us will. I hope, be going away
for a change — : some to a lakeside cottage,
some to the big city, some on long car trips,
some to camp.

We have been. making lists of what to
take in our baggage or in the car so that
we don’t forget anything. It is so annoying
to find we have left something vital behind.

) "The family certainly would not like to
. leave one of the children at home!
There is one person we should always
“*yemember to take with us if we are to have
a happy holiday and that person is God. It

so often seems that many who are regular
church attenders all through the rest of the
year forget God when the holiday season

arrives,

We have more time when on holiday |
to think about God and'to visit Him in His
house on Sunday and as we pass’ some
church on our trips. We can watch for His
handiwork as we see the wonders of the
scenery and of the wild life of our wonder-

ful world. *

We can look for Him inthe kindness
and courtesy of those who help to maké ¢ our
‘holiday or camp a happy one. Don’t forget
to take God with you when ‘you go away.

Asked what the total interest|
figure was that will have to be
paid on the new bylaw, finance
chairman Rust answered ‘$147,-

He said the Interest that the
debentures have to carry before
the B.C. government will guaran-
tee them is 5% per cent — up
one-quarter per cent since the
bylaw. was first presented.
However, since the deben-
tures carry such a rate of inter-
est, the bond discount is lower so
that the bylaw is now $8,000 low-
er than when it was first present-
ed. The present Py iew on for $177,-

More than one-third of the mains
were covered with red tacks.
When no more questions
were asked from the floor, A. A.
Lambert rose and said he didn’t

talk of defesting the bylaw. “I
think everyone should get out and
vote for it,” he said.
Suggestions were then invit-

getting residents out to vote on

the fire siren be blown every

was taken under consideration by
council.
