CASTLEGAR NEWS, Thursday, September 14, 1978 CASTLE NEWS SPORTS Ci andTrotting by Margaret Neal Just a little race... Herman Lougheed of Singhampton, Ontario was an old-time harness horse- man who delighted in challenging all comers to a road race with his little black mare, Road racing was a common form of pleasure and excitement, Children on their way to and from school, dignified gentlemen wil gold watch chains, young bloods Sunday driving with their best girl, and almost anyone else who had a road horse with a litle “lick” took part in the fun, Excuses had to be found for upsets, broken wheels and scratched buggies - much as dented fenders have to be explained now! Challenge races on the road were the forerunners of harness racing as we know it to-day - and Herman Lougheed liked his fun as well as the next fellow! In those days gates and wire fencing were expensive, and wood plentiful, and access to frequently visited pastures was often by means of a stile. ‘The stile was simply a set of wooden steps which went up’ one side of the fence and down the other side, te When the old man wanted to go to town, he simply called Molly from the asture, ‘The sure-footed little mare had been taught to mount the stile from the pasture side and present her- self in the barnyard to be hilched to the waiting buggy. The old man was an excellent teacher who had educated many horses with his patient kindness, and Molly was an apt pupil. Such men were the early teachers of horsemanship, who passed on their skill and knowledge to younger generations who are to-day’s expert harness horsemen. ‘Drastic’ Cut in Ducks Blamed on Bad Climate ‘This fall, hunters in many parts of Canada will feel the impact of last summer's drought and the succeeding harsh win- ter. : A drastic reduction in duck populations on the Prairies is reflected in the 1978 Migratory Birds Regulations, announced by the Canadian Wildlife Ser- vice, Environment Canada. In Alberta, bag and pos- session limits on ducks have been halved. In Manitoba once again this year, restrictions have been placed on the num-” When fishing streams with spinners, keep in mind that the blade will strike a rock or waterlogged stick on the bot- tom before the hook. When this happens, raise your rod tip gently and most of the time you can pull your lure over the snag without hanging up. This is why a light rod tip is good for fishing streams with hardware. You can fee! what is happening out there on the bottom and as soon as the blade stops its revolving, you know what's happened. This is a matter of feel, and ean be learned only with ex- perience, which means losing some Jures as you learn, Alas, I've found no way to keep from losing lures except by keeping them in the tackle box. But _ with experience, we can cut our losses. ‘It's All a Matter of Feel’ How To Hang On to Your Lure Along with this matter of feel goes the necessity of paying attention to your rod and line. This comes naturally after a while because of the price of lures, You don't need to lose too many before you start watching your rod tip and when that happens, for when a fish takes a spinner it usually doesn’t mouth it as if it were bait. Usually your rod tip snaps down with the power of the strike and you have a fish on before you can react. keeping your hands attuned to that gentle action that is tele- graphed to your rod and your hands. At times, of course, that change in action of your lure means a fish has picked it up. Usually there's no question _ Jones sp hundreds more atti Peer for air conditioning & heating than Smith. Why?

Okanagan Places First In 36-Hole Competition By Gerry W. and Charlie C. The Okanagan eight-man team finished first, ahead of Vancouver, and the West Kootenays, in a combination of match play and two-man best ball, in two rounds of 18 holes each, on Saturday end Sunday last week. ‘The Kelowna course had been closed on Thursday and Friday because of very soggy grounds. The condition of the fairways and greens iad not improved for Saturday's round and the resulting play at times bordered the comical. Heavy rains during the night made it necessary to plan the second round at Vernon on Sunday. The first five West Koote- nay golfers on the team had good low gross scores in between 76 and 79 on both complex point-scoring system at the end. We are sure that our boys gained valuable experience and will be better prepared for future meets of this kind. ‘ 7 a SELKIRK ‘ COLLEGE WA requires TWO (2) EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION INSTRUCTORS FULL-TIME POSITION: Will commence October 75, 1978, and extend to December 31, 1979.

Roy Hub- beard, Board member George Lewis led the service in sing- ing. An appropriate number in song, “The Family of God,” was rendered by Kathy and Cindy Dillen. The sectional presbyter for the Kootenays, Rev. Joseph Chudyk, welcomed the pastor and his family into their new pastorate and preached a time- ly sermon on the call of God to preach and work together.’ Inconclusion, Rev. Chudyk had Rev. Hubbeard and his family come to the front of the church, where they were joined by all the church board mem- bers with their wives. To- gether, they prayed for their. new pastor, his wife and family. After the meeting closed in prayer, everyone gathered up- stairs in the. Christian educa- tion area for refreshments and fellowship. Rev. Hubbeard comes to Castlegar with his wife, Elvia and their two children, Cindy and Jimmy, from Clinton Creek, Yukon Territory. He graduated from East- ern Pentecostal Bible College + and chose to go north as the assistant pastor to Rev. Rhondo Thomas in Frobisher Bay, North West Territories. From there, he travelled to Clinton Creek, Yukon Territory, where he and his wife pioneered the Maranatha Pentecostal Assem- bly. Both children were born to” them during their stay in the Yukon, After six years of ministry in Clinton Creek, they have accepted the invitation to pas- tor Pentecostal Tabernacle in Castlegar. It is interesting to note that Rev. Joseph Chudyk, then at Williams Lake, was the sectional presbyter of the Northland Section, and wel- comed Rev. Hubbeard into the - north. Rev. Chudyk, now at Cranbrook, has weleomed Rev. Hubbeard into the Kootenay “section, as well.

Do you know how much it costs to operate your average electric appliances? The following will give you some idea, but keep in mind, these are all approximate figures because hydro rates vary across the country and with the amount of use: e A large-sized air con- ditioner costs $200 a year to run. e A refrigerator-freezer costs more than $50 a year. eA kitchen range costs more than $30 a year. e A clothes dryer costs nearly $30 a year. But don’t despair. There's still a bargain or two left. Based on average use, you can still get a year of can-opening, carving, floor polishing, hedge-trim- - ming, shaving or waffle-making for under 50 cents. _ Senior Citizens Begin ‘New Season of Activities The first fall meeting of the Castlegar and District Senior Citizens Association saw 32 members and three visitors in attendance.

Your Pet and You The Facts of Spaying “She'll be better-natured if I let her have a litter before getting her fixed.” Unfortunately this well- meant remark often leads later to “please put these kittens (or puppies) to sleep—I just haven't been able to find homes for them.” Female cats and dogs go into heat twice a year from as early as four-and-a-half months of age. A female cat can go into heat 10 days after giving birth. During the heat period cats may go in and out of heat several times until they are bred. Symptoms of cat heat are Once home the pet should be kept quiet for a few days to make sure the stitches are not broken, Because she will not have eaten since before the opera- tion, her first meal should be small. Stitches should be re- moved 10 to 14 days after the operation and at the same time the area will be examined to ensure good healing has taken place. Spaying should not alter your pet's personality though it may make her quieter and more relaxed. With correct diet and 4 d affec- tion, loud crying and presen- tation of the tail to one side. Heat periods in the dog usually last from 14 to 21 days. A blood-stained discharge is apparent for the first seven to 10 days which is followed by a standing heat period during which the bitch will accept male dogs. In addition, of course, there are hprdes of male dogs when your female pet isin heat. If you do not wish your animal to breed, keep her con- fined to the house and in the ease of a dog walk her ona Jeash at all times and carry a stick to fend off unwanted male admirers. Your neighbors would probably appreciate it if you placed her in a kennel until the heat period is over. Dogs and cats can be spay- ed any time after five months of age. The operation involves a gengral anaesthetic, removal of ovaries and uterus, and an overnight stay in the veteri- nary hospital.
