Accounting MOROSO, MARKIN & BLAIN CERTIFIED NERAL ACCOUNTANTS 241 Columbia Ave. Castlegar Ph. 365-7287 Pulpit & Pew The following is based on Ezekiel 34 and should be read for clarification. In this chapter Ezekiel is told by God to prophecy against the shepherds for they had not been doing what their ministry required of them. The shepherds are accountable for what they do (v.10). They are to follow closely to God's ways, God's stan- dards, God's precepts. But this was not done as seen in v.3-4 and 7 and thus resulted in a prophecy, a word from the Lord against them (v5). It is a fearful thing to handle the Word of God and the sheep that are given to the leadership lightly. Jer. 48:10 states — “cursed be he that doeth the work of the Lord deceitfully.” Therefore, we as pastors have to set our house in “For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God and if it first begins with us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God” (Isa. 38:1). This was the same impact that the message had on Ezekiel, which God had given him, and he had to deliver this message to those whom Ged had told him to tell. Pastors, the responsibility lies with us as undershep- herds of God's vineyard, God's house. We are commis. sioned to protect, feed, cor rect, guide, comfort, encour age, and practice what we preach to those whom we've been entrusted with. But as seen in Ezekiel, the shep- herds were only concerned about their own profit and benefit. A tract edited and para phrased by Keith and Melody Green and written by Char- les G. Finney, entitled How to Preace Without Results, says in part: e Let your supreme motive be to inerease your own pop- ularity — then of course, your preaching will be suited for that purpose, and not to convert souls to Christ. e Avoid preaching doc- trines that are offensive to the carnal mind, lest they should say to you, as they did of Christ, “This is a hard saying, who can hear it?” e Make no distinct points, and do not disturb the con- sciences of your hearers, lest they become alarmed about their souls. e Avoid all illustrations, repetitions, and emphatic sentences that may compel your people to remember what you say. e Avoid all heat and earn- estness in your delivery, lest you make the impression that you really believe what you say. It was Solomon who stated, “There is nothing new under the sun.” That being the case, then what you have just read is true for some or most ; and yet God forbid that it should be. This is what God saw and, there fore, He had to say some thing about it. So the emphasis as found in Ezkiel is on the need for getting right with God and doing whatever we are in- volved in God's way or else. The emphasis is on the ur. gency of harkening to the voice of God. The emphasis is also on the displeasure and judgment of God toward his shepherds and his sheep. If we as shepherds — as pastors — do not set the example of Godliness, right eousness, holy living accord ing to God's word and the gospel of God (not our in terpretation, our gospel), then we are doing God and those he has entrusted us with,a dishonor and, there. foré,-“I (God) will require my flock at their (shepherds) hand: For it is a fearful thing to Il into the hands of the living God. Yet just a short note before closing. If you read further on, you will find: 1. God does not exempt the sheep (the congregation), but that they will also be judged for following the bad example of the shepherd. 2. God will seek and search out his sheep. God will take charge as a true shepherd with deep affection. God is concerned about his people and has a watchful eye on those who are the leaders, the shepherds, the priests of His people; of His creation The warning to the pastors has sounded as a trumpét. The word has gone forth What are you going to do about it pastor? LICENCED DINING ROOM OPEN 4P.

According to the terms of the merger, the co-op’s depositers receive about 74 cents for every dollar invested. Castlegar's Alma McGauley, a ‘spokesman for an ad hoc occurred when the coop went into ip last November. The agreement would see the depositers share the loss with the federal government, three provincial governments, the five major chartered banks and B.C.'s two major credit unipns. The $45,000-member co-op went into receivership with about $268 million in unsecured deposits frozen at the time. Last July the co-op merged with CanWest Financial Corp. of Winnipeg. Under the merger, about $190 million of 's, intends to meet Friday with officials from Discovery Trust and the B.C. Alberta and Pp teachers’ to discuss the proposed agreement. Discovery Trust has offered to put up $100,000 to help with the guarantee. The money will be used for advertising, the agreement include B.C., Alberta and Manitoba because invited MeGauley and others on the ad hoc committee to those are the three provinces in which co-op di reside. ¢ The two credit unions are:VanCity Savings Credit Union and B.C. Central Credit Union. Dalton stressed that the B.C. government will be asked to accept “quite a large share” of the loss, and suggested that if it doesn't it will be difficult to enlist support from the other governments, the banks and the credit unions. Meanwhile, Dalton said McGauley will present a ictal Monday = to Allan } B.C.’s supe: i voice make rep: and ask at tae ee ees, The provincial government agreed to an investigation by the superintendent of cooperatives only after first rejecting a request for a full public inquiry. ‘Then Consumer and Corporate Affairs Minister Elwood Veitch said Mulholland would have the “broadest possible mandate” ome the framework of the Cooperative promotion and direct contact with the federal and p governments, the banks and the credit unions.

Moore left for Vancouver Monday for briefing sessions in preparation for the two-day conference. She will represent the Union of B.C. Municipalities at the conference. Also invited as observers are John Shields, president of the B.C. Govern- ment Employees’ Union, Marie Taylor, chairman of the B.C. Utilities Com- mission, Oskana Exell of the Can- adian Federation of Independent Busi- ness, and NDP leader Bob Skelly. Meanwhile, Vander Zalm said Tues- day that getting a “fair share” in-Con- federation will be British Columbia's main concern at the conference. “Fair share” was a theme he stressed in the Oct. 22 provincial election cam paign, and he is expected to make a similar pitch in his opening remarks at the first ministers’ conference. The province will have difficulty reaching its economic potential “unless we get treatment similar to what's af. forded, say, Ontario” by Ottawa, Van der Zalm told reporters. “We're having a tough time — no matter where it is or what it is — when dealing nationally,” he said. “We can't be constantly blocked from doing things, or delayed in trying to do things, or be short-changed.” Electoral reform “would be a good place to start,” he said, because before British Columbia can get fair treat ment, there must be changes in the political system because two-thirds of the seats in Parliament are in Ontario and Quebec The premier said he is not demand ing more federal assistance for indus tries in the province, “ continued on page A2 ‘as a matter of FLOW TESTING Associates Ltd water well at Castlegar Airport Workers from Golder of Vancouver test flow of new The new water distribution system is one of a number of projects being carried out as o lead-up to airport terminal expansion, expected to start in the spring.

Schools to change tart tim "The two schools share the use of two staff members but differegt starting times created clashes in actual teaching time. The time change is not only expected to alleviate the staf problem but it should also decrease the lengthy wait some students must endure each morning. Last September, parents of Ootisch- enia children attending Castlegar pri- mary voiced concern over their chil- dren having to wait for almost 50 minutes at the school due to an early bus arrival and late class starting time. “This should cut 15 minutes off the wait for kids in Ootischenia,” said trus- tee Doreen Smecher. “But the school times have always been dictated by transportation.” Smecher told the board that school buses are being overworked as a result of having to bus in children from areas affected by school closures. “If we had the money or compact driving distances we could single-trip the buses,” she said. “Every one of our buses is double booked and some of them triple.” Smecher explained that changing morning times rather than afternoon times had the least effect on bus sched ules, and those families adversely ef fected were previously contacted. However, three families from the Meadowbrook/Hislop area would find not saying there will be no problems. Some families just got their schedules down pat and here we are changing it.” In other news, the board approved the purchase of a portable wheelchair lift for Kinnaird Junior secondary school. The lift is expected to cost approx imately $5,000 and has the capacity to hold an adult-size or child-size wheel chair. Also, CKQR radio has offered the school board air time to discuss present plans and accomplishments. Trustee Rick Pongracz called the offer “an opportunity we can't pass up.

Three stories from each group chosen by judges as the best in their By CHERYL CALDERBANK Staff Writer More than $1.6 million is being spent at Castlegar Airport in preparation for a major expansion of the airport terminal, expected to start in the spring. Kootenay West MP Bob Brisco said a total of $1,616,000 is being spent on a number of projects at the airport Projects which have either been completed or are still being carried out include @ recontouring and overlaying the apron in front of the air terminal. @ new water and electrical systems; ea fire alarm system: e electrical gates to the garage Brisco said all the work being done is leading up tu the $5 million airport terminal expansion Ken McTaggart. flight service station manager at the airport, said the recontouring and overlay of the apron, which was contraeted for $484,000, is virtually complete. : He said in a letter to Castlegar Mayor Audrey Moore that there is a slight problem with drainage off of the apron, and final sealing probably won't be done until next spring McTaggart added in an interview that the recontouring and apron work had to be done so the airport's maintenance water didn't drain towards the terminal building. The work which started in mid-September was completed at the end of October Elsewhere, McTaggart said a water well has been drilled and water found. Flow testing started last week. According to project engineer Dan Nicholson, of Urban Systems Ltd. in Kelowna, a concrete reservoir is under construction and a diesel drawn fire pump will be housed in a building in front of the reservoir He said the system will normally operate using a smaller domestic water pump, but under times of high flow demand, such as for firefighting, the large diesel driven pump will automatically kick in Nicholson said existing wells, a small r fire pump currently in front of the terminal building will be demolished to make way for future parking lot reservoir and expansion McTaggart said that the new water and electrical system will take all winter to complete. He said laying of new water mains and electrical conduit is well underway and ongoing McTaggart also said Ottawa has given final approval for the air terminal building expansion.
