The prin- cipal words of the ditty maintained that “love and marriage . . . belong together like a horse and carriage.” In our day, something has gone drastically wrong with a great many marriages. Ap- proximately one marriage in four ends up in divoree or happy. Could it be we are using the wrong ingredients, the wrong brands of love? It is obvious that if two people are very selfish and self-centred they cannot have a happy marriage. Each per son will use the other as an object of self-grati- fication, and will constantly be asking, “Am I getting what I deserve out of this re- lationship?” Even the term “love” is not very well understood as it relates to marriage. Couples talk of falling in love at first sight, but they also talk of loving their dog, or the fact that “they just love peanut butter!” A better understanding of what love really is would be helpful. The Greeks had four words that distinguished what kind of love they were describing, all the way from pure erotic love or even lust, to the un- selfish love God demonstrat ed to mankind when He gave His son to die for sinful mankind. Christian peychologists Carl Paul Faulkner in ther seminar on by the Greeks can greatly imerease the success and ful- Mfilment of a marriage. “Storge,” or family love, is the special regard and feeling ANNOUNCEMENT School Board Office, 865 Columbia Ave. Office Hours July 2 - Aug. 31 — 7:30 a.m. - 3:00 p.m. THE OFFICE WILL BE CLOSED JULY 23 — AUGUST 6 INCLUSIVE.

Postnikoff funeral held A former longtime resi dent of Champion Creek passed away this week. Wil liam Larry Postnikoff of Castlegar died July 3, age 78. Born Aug. 26, 1906 in Sas katchewan, Mr. Postnikoff came to B.C., settling in Champion Creek where he lived until 1978. He worked as a smelter man for Cominco for many years He is survived by two sons, Bill and John of Castlegar; three daughters, Mrs. John (Dolly) Makaroff of Castle- gar, Mrs. Larry (Helen) Bartsoff of Pass Creek, and Lucy Rigby of Castlegar; and seven grandchildren. He was predeceased by his wife Martrusha, one brother Mike, and a sister Mabel Soukeroff. Funeral services were held with burial in Park Memorial Cemetery. REASSESSINI THE VALUES OF THE PAST EDITOR'S NOTE: John Charters attended the B.C. Heritage Trust annua! meeting in Nanaimo recently. This is the conclusion of his report on the conference. . 28 @ Jacques Dalibard of Ottawa spoke of the “cohesion of buildings and well defined streets of older cities” as compared to “the destructive isolation and lack of cohesion as is evident in modern city planning,” and of the need to “bind up the wounds caused by the new economic urbanization, where wide empty spaces and deep sterile canyons = speak not of craftsmen and living rep- rese! but h J and hii de deserts.” “Technology,” he said, “was a gain to a relatively sane world, but the shadows of a nuclear hol force Castlegar has a wealth of talent on which to draw, as as a considerable support for its own heritage development program. Moreover, it was reassuring to realize that the City of Castlegar Heritage Advisory Committee is right im its careful “people place” approach to the Zuckerberg Island Park and its heritage buildings and Indian pit-house sites. 2. That measures to protect the park are desirably low-key, since the best protection against vabdalism is a concerned and alert public which makes careful uge of an area. 3. Restoration of the island buildings and structures are proceeding on a rational (ie. adaptive use) basis and this too is good. Old and initially inferior materials and detriorating parts are being replaced as are water and wiring services and insulation but the original effect is being maintained an approach taken by modern restoration workers. Purists may object to the addition of proteetive fencing and shutters on the chapel house since they are not ‘original’. However, they are “in character” — “adaptations which preserve the future while retaining us to reassess the values of the past.” And all these years I thought that I was alone in my aversion to these sterile canyons, random, windy spaces and the black faceless glass monoliths, the goblin towers that make urban living an experience “full of sound and fury signifying nothing.” “We just do not know how to design cities — an absolute nightmare,” said another. (The Terry Fox memorial should really stop them dead.) New elements, such as automobiles, affect the design and development of cities but in a society which measures all rewards in monetary terms, how do we reward people, plan for people? It cannot be on a short term nett sowever, the real tragedy of modern Canadian cities - lies in the fact that we have lost our cultura] identity. Unlike that of most other countries, our Canadian heritage is a mosaic of other cultures — French, English, Scots, Russian, Ukrainian, as well as our first peoples. Unfortunately, the trend to post-modernism has broken this cultural continuity. And this was the essential theme of the conference — thoughtful, varied, and ic. I am still digesting much of what I saw and heard but I thank council and the citizens of Castlegar for giving me the opportunity to attend the “banquet.” But to continue. Other sessions included the official welcome by the mayor of Nanaimo, Frank New and his council members, workshops on heritage planning adaptive re-use, restoration of urban structures, identification of heritage resources, and a walking tour of Nanaimo city, which is justly proud of its continuing restoration program of its long heritage, a salmon barbecue at Newcastle Island (itself a heritage site) with Bill Merilees, naturalist and former Castlegarian as our guide, and with MLA Rita Johnston who spoke for the Ministry of Lands, Parks and Housing. A special high point for this writer came when at the British Columbia Heritage Trust presentations luncheon, Director Russell Irvine singled out Castlegar's Zucker berg Island Park project and Rotary display for special notice and commendation to the delegates. I would make some observations drawn from the conference and our own efforts: 1. There were 142 heritage-oriented groups rep resented at the conference, from tiny hamlets of a few hundred people to major cities. There were also a number of very and hed speakers. It became obvious very quickly therefore that the heritage conservation movement is very much alive and that the sy of the past” restoration expert. 4. Questions have been asked as to the future use of the chapel house, so I asked the panel. “Tintern Abbey” in south Britain has been a ruin for many years,” was the opening response, “but has an unending flow of visitors and has inspired countless writers and poets from around the world.” That is, a thing of beauty or uniqueness is sufficient unto itself. It it evokes a sense of pleasure, a sense of appreciation or affords people — particularly children — the opportunity to ask questions about its unusual setting, the “Beyond Eternal Peace” of Levitan's painting which I feel inspired it and which provides a key to another culture which no book could pravide. Furthermore, if the Indian pit-house sites cause children to ask questions and think about the heritage which lies all about them they will begin to see their jon as an all thing and their own culture in new dimensions and perspectives. Commercially, the park and its surroundings is an outstanding tourist attraction and if integrated into a large overall plan should generate wide interest and income for the city Actual, physical utilization of the building should be given the most careful and unhurried study and only in consultation with the city building inspector, Heritage Advisory Committee, parks committee and other interested parties. In the meantime, services are being installed. 5. A number of cities such as Nelson, Rossland and Nanaimo are involved in mainstreet planning — restoration of certain blocks on a heritage basis and as a tourist attraction. After listening to a panel on the subject I am convinced that such is not for Castlegar. It lacks the essential core. On the other hand, Castlegar and District has a great deal to offer in broader terms. The Kootenay Doukhobor museum, Verigin’s Tomb, the dams, the ferry, the Vallican Indian sites, Zuckerberg Island Park and other areas of historic interest must be seen as an jntegrated whole and together with attractive entries sold as a package. The concept is not original, but was put forward last fall by Clive Justice This area was a crossroads long before the planes and highways came. I suggest that we can enhance the picture, save our vanishing heritage and make the entire operation economically viable with imaginative research, planning and input before we lose any more of what is left to paraphrase one ~ nat Emergency program establishe : ‘Brian L.
