MA, Dead Pets Return The town of Metulla, near the Israeli-Lebanese border, was recently the scene of an anti-rables campaign, in which local authorities spread meat and fish laced with strychnine throughout the town. Many pet owners did not see the warning notices, and let their cats and dogs run free, They were understandably dis- mayed when their pets keeled over, and were carted off to the municipal garbage dump. The next morning, owners were amazed when their “dead” pets staggered home again, Most had survived, spending the night sound asleep at the dump. © Engagements YOUR ENGAGEMENT NOTICE Is printed free when order your wl weasing | invitations nsiram t the cae. © In Memoriam ZAYTSOFF — In loving mem- ony of a dear husband and father, Mike M. awe who passed away April 20,.1 Days of sadnesa still come o'er us, Teers in silence often tlow, Memory ore. you rn Yaough re} years Sadly pace ‘by wife Vert ra Harr and daughters Gloria ang CASTLEGAR NEWS, Thursday, April 14, 1977 ene ' BIRTHS ieee permet PETERSON Mrs. David Paterson Oo Catiteger, April 7, a son.

In fact, more decorative candles are made today than ever before, And that’s good news for Glenn and Marilyn Finley of Creston, The ‘Finleys, with their daughter Shannon, run one of the Kootenay’s most interesting lndustriee Honey Lite Candles, - ‘This sweet-smelling busi- ness, which transforms surplus beeswax into attractive candles, is located on the out-. skirts of Creston, just south of the junction of Highways 3 and 3A, The Honey-] -Lite factory 6:30 daily, offering’ free tours enthusiastically conducted by Glenn Finley himself.

Ina wide variety of shapes and shades, they are displayed as centerpieces or, featured in unusual holders, some ‘made. locally of juniper or apricot wood, 7 But although the Honey- Lite products are appealing to both nose and eye, it is the workshop tour that is most intriguing. Wax for the candles comes direct from Alberta beekeepers to the Finley workshop, where it is melted and cleaned. In its natural color, the wax is a golden-beige. This is fine for use in dark-colored tapers, but in order to “take” many of the popular pastel hues, the wax must be “bleached” to the color .of pale parchment. ‘ and showroom is open from9 to. | Though pure beeswax can- dies may be ordered, most of the Finley's products include 30 per cent paraffin, The beeswax . and paraffin mix—up to 500 pounds (225 kilograms) at a time—is melted in a large dipping vat set in the floor of the workshop. While the wax reaches” proper. temperature, ‘Glenn “wicks up"—stringing white wicking cord to the required length on the metal dipping racks. Each of the racks in turn is plunged into the molten wax, quickly lifted out and allowed to cool, This process is repeated until layer by layer the candles grow around the wick to the desired thickness. After the final cooling the candles are cut off at the bottom, leaving them joined in pairs by their wicks. Each one is then crimped in the “baser” in order to shape the bottom to fit into a candle holder. * The pale, graceful columns of wax are dipped in pairs into the’ coloring tanks which con- , tain powdered dye melted in Marilyn Finley Displays Beeswax Candies at Honey-Lite Showroom —B.C.
