“said.

“They thought the minis-
try would have to establish the
fund," he said.

Asked why the ministry
had reduced the proposed 1978
CKRHD budget, without pro-
viding an explanation, the hos-
pital programs representatives
said they “overlooked the need
for an explanation, Vanderpol
sald.

In response to a query on
the ministry's refusal to share
in financing parking lot devel-
opment, paving and landscape
projects, installation of water
systems, underground lighting
and other capital expenses
necessary for the of

of $11,000 into the new capital
expense proposal.

Vanderpol said the meet-
ing was “fruitful” and “should
have occurred maybe five years
ago.”

He said he hoped the board
would be able to meet with the
officials at least every two
years,

“There was a considerable
amount of dialog going on,” he
said, “I think we clarified a lot
of difficult questions.”

Interviewed briefly after
the meeting, Glenwright said
he was pleased with the out-
come of the meeting.

Glenwright said the minis-
try was aware of B.C. hospital
districts’ frustration with its

wells, Livingston said the local
health authorities could check
the water “any time" because it
was of the same quality as the
water supply.

He told the Castlegar
News the lower level of the
river during the summer may
result in “some very slight
changes” in quality, but said
the effect of the nearby con-
fluence of the Kootenay with
the Columbia River was “ex-
tremely difficult to speculate.”

“We don't know where on
the river the -recharge is
coming from,” he said. “It may
be quite complex.”

An Alcoholic Relates
His Experience with AA

My name is Cee G. and I
am an alcoholic. This intro-
duction, while a familiar one at
A.A. meetings, was being given
Friday during a Businessmen's
Luncheon sponsored by CanCel
and Seven Mile Dam Con-
tractors.

Present was a wide cross
section of the community who
listened to the personal account
of Cec G. as an alcoholic and Cec
G. as a rehabilitated alcoholic
who, through this organization,
has maintained his sobriety.

“I got nothing against
booze,” says Cec G. “If you

“want to go out and be a Billie
Goat, that's up to you.”

“I caused a lot of people a
lot of heartache and lost a lot of
jobs—a lot of good jobs but
have not been fired since I
joined A.A. 26 years ago.”

Cec G. explained how he
accomplished the reorganizing
of his life through the 12 steps
of A.A. He related his ex-
periences, sprinkled with hum-
orous anecdotes and plain talk
on how Cec G. made it work,

The 12 steps of A.A. are as
follows:

e We admitted we were
powerless over alcohol—that
our lives had become un-
manageable. *,

e Came to believe that a
Power greater than ourselves
could restore us to sanity.

e Made a decision to turn
our will and our lives over to
the care. of. God as we under-
stood Him.

e@ Made a searching and
fearless moral inventory of
ourselves,

Admitted to God, to our-
selves, and to another human
being the exact nature of our
wrongs. :

@ Were entirely ready to
have God remove all these
defects of character.

e Humbly asked Him to
remove our shortcomings.

@ Madea list of all persons
we had harmed, and became
willing to make amends to them
all.

e Made direct amends to
such people wherever possible,
except when to do so would
injure them or others,

e Continued to take per-
sonal inventory and when we
were wrong promptly admitted
it.

e Sought through prayer
and meditation to improve our
conscious contact with God as
we understood Him, praying
only for knowledge of His will
for us and the power to carry
that out.

e Having had a spiritual
awakening as the result of
these steps, we tried to carry
this message to alcoholics, and
to practice these principles in
all our affairs.
