He flew in the owners of five or six - places I used to sing in in Canada, all at his expense. That just about blew omy mind.” .)

It was while he was with the steel gang, at the age of 14, that he got interested in playing guitar. “I used to listen to the Indian fellows play, so one day I sent off for a mail-order guitar, When it came I taught myself to play.” GOOD MEMORY Dave says he has always liked to sing and has no teouble building up his rep, ertoir “Although I didn't like school, I was very good at memory work.

West is best By AUSTIN RAND A study of employees in 62 organizations from coast to coast has found that, in general, westerners are in better shape than easterners, Dr. Maurice Jette of the Faculty of Health Sciences at the University of Ottawa studied 3,651 women and 6,218 men. He measured studied" muscular endurance, as measured by the number of sit-ups and push-ups which ‘could be done in 60-seconds; trunk flexibility, as measured by a sit-and-reach test; car- dio-respiratory fitness, as in- (dicated by maximal oxygen consumption, and heart rate, along with systolic and dias- tolic blood pressure. Western men and wom- en generally scored higher than for both number of sit-ups in one- minute-period, about 15 per cent more than Quebec and Maritime males, with Ontario males falling in the middle. B.C. women did about 15 per cent more sit-ups than wom- en from the Maritimes, Que- bec or Ontario and about nine " Dave Powell He's local and he’ S very great Book for every: job By supy WEARMOUTH People who don’t use the Castlegar Library may not be aware of the large and varied selection of self-help books available on the shelves. More and more people are remodelling or building their own houses, repairing their owa fridges, lawnmow- ers, washing machines, etc.; maintaining and trouble- shooting their own cars; building their.own boats — * all-with the help of books from the library. One patron recently perched on her: house roof, reshingling, with our book of tiling and roofing propped up beside her! Judging by the oily fingerprints we occasion- ally find in the auto repair books and the smears and crumbs (not too often, thank per cent more than: Prairie women, B.C. men and women also had the highest push-up scores, In trunk flexion, dif- ferences between the five re- gions were quite small,. al- though again employees from the Prairies and B.C, had the highest scores. In oxygen intake, On- tario and Quebec men and women were significantly lower than those. in other parts of Canada. With respect to resting sit-ups and push-ups. British Columbia and Prairie males did approximately the same there were no sig- nificant differences among women, but Prairie men had the lowest rates. COMMUNITY FLU VACCINE Flu Vaccine will be available at the Costlegar Health District office, 813 - 10th Street every Tuesday afternoon in. October from3 p.m. to4 p.m, in the cookery books, we realize just how practical a service we render to the community. Many of the fruit trees and flowering shrubs around town have been pruned to the tune of one of our five pruning manuals and our. landscaping books are very popular in this area of rapid growth and mushrooming housing. If, hobbies are more your bent than the duties you're expected to perform around the house and yard, we have books which can show you - how to draw and paint (there is also a large selection of gorgeous books on most of the world’s best-known paint- ers to inspire you); -how to crochet anything from a vest to a basket; -how to do embroidery, needlepoint and .macrame. We can help you learn carpentry from the first steps up to the finest cab- inet-making; and show you how to upholster and re- furbish, paint and .decorate, lay carpet or hook rugs. -- Christmas is coming-and- in this ‘time’ of ‘inflation’ and: escalating prices, our books on handmade soft toys and puppets; beautiful craft ideas; or scrumptious ' food gifts from your kitchen can help you keep the bills down. (But don't leave it too late!) The library can help you learn the guitar or say the piano — and then we have songbooks with which you can enjoy the fruit of your labors; you can be taught the rudiments of dance or figure skating, or learn the ins and outs of the latest winter sport craze — cross-country or downhill skiing to name only a few. or every intetest’— and if we'don't have exactly what you need, we always try to get it for you from another source. Don't hesi- tate to ask for that extra service and suggestions for additions to this large‘collec- tion of useful books are always welcome.
