‘Of Name Change

Civil Defence Search and
‘Rescue met last Thursday with
the co-ordinator Red Warner

,,and assistant co-ordinator Ted
*Cowlin to form plans for the fall
training session.

Vincent requested the first
meeting be this Wednesday at 7
p.m. in the Kinnaird Fire Hall.

Local Park
Benches
At Expo ‘74

Park benches from around
the Pacific Northwest will
grace the site of Expo 74, the
1974 World's Fair.

Included will be those from
the twin towns of Castlegar and
Kinnaird.

Ina recent Expo ‘74 news
release, it states about 20 cities
and communities have offered
to loan their park benches to
the City of Spokane lo provide
rest areas on the 100 acres of
the World's Fair.

Spokane Mayor David H.
Rodgers sent letters to mayors
throughout the Pacifie North-
west at the beginning of the
summer, inviting them to
participate in Expo ‘74 by
loaning their benches to Spo-
kane.

After the World's Fair, the
benches will be returned with a
plaque denoting use of them in
Expo ‘74, and the fairgrounds
will be turned into a city park.

Planners of the — fair-
grounds estimate they will
need 1,000 to 1,200 places to sit
for the anticipated 4.8 million
visitors.._With. an average;.of,

four persons to a bench, they ‘
wdigure they need about 300

enches.

Expo '74 will begin picking
up the benches‘sometime this
fall, storing them througli the
winter and providing what
maintenance is required.

Ina depression among tho
hills due north of Slocan Lake
and lying betweon tho basins of
the Upper Arrow Lake and
Duncan River is Trout Lake,

It is one of. the lovlicst -
sheets of water in a country
noted for its beautiful lakes,
picturesque waterfalls and
wildly magnificent mountain
scenery,

Drained to the south by
the Lardeau River and tumul-
tuous streams, Trout Lake is 25

miles long and empties its
waters into the northern
extremity of Kootenay Lake.

To the north it receives
water from the Lardeau and
Trout Creeks, and on a flat
between them lies the com-
munity of Trout Lake—home of
a geen families but once a city
of 8,001

Prospedtors and hard rock
miners from all parts of North
America flocked here in the
1890's in hopes of striking it
rich from the lead and silver
hidden in the mountains.

Some made it. Most didn’t.
But it was while they were
trying that Trout Lake was a
bustling community with all the
luxuries and facilities of any.
large city in those days.

The city had several
depots of supply, post office,
money order office, blacksmith
shop, printing shop, barber

shop, sawmill, livery stable,

assay office, drug store, hospi-
tal, church, four hotels (one of
which is still in operation) and
three stores—the Intest of
which burned to the ground
three years ago.

One. of the stores was
owned by C. B. Hume who also
owned stores at that time in
Revelstoke and Arrowhead.

Although mining was by
far the most major industry of
the area, there was also some
logging activity and the lumber
mill in the late 1890's was
producing 8,000 feet per day.

‘There was a dozen mining
operations around .Trout Lake
at that time but all were small
and referred to as “gopher
holes”.

Pandora Mine, located in
the hills 11 miles from Trout
Lake, is currently producing
lead and silver concentrate
with a crew of about 30 men.
The mine, formerly called the
“Silver, ie by was, i

n's son, Drennan,
cuiantly a night clerk at the-
Regent Hotel in Revelstoke.

Silver Cup first opened in
the late 1800's and has been
operating on and off ever since.
One outfit would move out after
extracting ore for a year or two
from a particular vein and the
mine would then lie dormant
for several years until a new
source was discovered and once
again it would be put back into
production.

Pandora began working it
aboul a year ago.

The community today is
without. electrical power, al-
though all but one resident
have their own power generat-
ing plants.

Despite the fact there are
no telephones and no hydro,
residents get clear radio recep-
tion from Salmon Arm and
television from Kelowna by
means of a. special tower.
perched on the highest mount-
ain in the area.

There’s not much in the
way. of entertainment, but
thal’s how residents seem to
like it,

“Phere is peace, quiet,
relaxation, and lots of time for
“visiting,” she says.

The two big social oc-
casions of the year are the
school Christmas concert in
December and the annual fish
derby in August.

During the winter months
while the community is buried
beneath more. snow | than

Club brings in modern movies

y the Kid and Buffalo Bill

On May 2, 1907, the first
wagon train to stop in Trout
Lake registored at the hotel
which, until recent years, was
called “Windsor Hotel.” The
rogister docs not say where tho
wagon train was. coming from
or going to,

Among the guests who
stayed at the hotel were two
logendary western figures—
saudi Bill” and “Billy the
Kid" z

Buffalo Bill registered at
the hotel on June 13, 1909, and
he signed the book as. “Buffalo
Bill & Circus",

Two months later, Billy
‘The Kid signed his name on the
register. Both signatures were
photographed years later and
sent toa Los Angeles museum
to determine if they ‘ were

authentic or whether two other

Dec, 22, 1898, the Trout Lake
Topic wrote:

“From its geographic posi-
tion alone, Trout Lake is’ a
district noted for the immense
extent of its mineral resource.
Sooner or later it is bound to
occupy a foremost position
among the mining communities
of this province.”

ing as the legendary fig igures,

The museum wrote back to
the hotel people and substan-
tiated the signatures. They
were for real.

Longest living residents of
Trout Lake are Hans Hansen,
Bob “Porky” Laughton, and
Sheldon Daney.

Bob, 68, is the only
resident now living on his
particular street which he calls
“Tuffer Street",

“The further you go, the
tuffer we get,” he says and then
bursts into laughter.

Originally from Revelstoke,
he went to Trout Lake to visit
his parents in 1926 and has
been there ever since.

Hans Hansen had been
working on a Norwegian
commercial boat and had been
to Vancouver several times.
But in 1929 he left the ship and
journeyed inland, ending up at
Trout Lake where he has been
ever since.

During the era of the big
population, Trout Lake had a
school but as the community
shrunk the school eventually
closed down and students had
to go to Beaton, 15 miles away.

The schoo! at Beaton was
also destined to close, and this
came about seven years ago
when the Arrow Lakes started
to flood with the Columbia
River power development pro-
ject.

When this. happened,
Trout Lake again got its own
school and now provides les-
sons to about 15 children ina

single classroom (facility... made ,

from two mobile. trailers.

The new school's original
teacher, Betty Peters, is still
there,

Trout Lake’s community
hall is’ an old school house
moved intact over a narrow,
winding road from Ferguson a
few years ago. -

Like Bob Laughton ‘and
Sheldon Daney, Hans Hansen
likes living at Trout Lake and
can't think of another place he, ‘d
rather live.

“In the’ city, a pension
cheque doesn't go very far,” he
says. “But out here you can get
by without starving.”

Mr. Hansen, the only
resident still using kerosene
lanterns to light his home, is
optimistic the population of
Trout Lake. will someday begin
to pick up.

“It wouldn’t take much to

get this place boomin’ again. «

And, like the early days, it
would be the mines that would
do it.”

The optimism of Mr.
Hansen is nothing new. It has
existed for 75 years.

Preventive Dentistry Aimed
At Stopping Tooth Decay

Your teeth are important
to you. Without them you
wouldn't be able to chew or
smile a bright attractive smile,
or even speak clearly,

Yet many people lose their
teeth because they don't take
care of them. Some people even
think that there is little they
ean do to keep teeth healthy
and strong.

The truth is modern dental
science now knows how to keep
‘teeth. nearly perfect for a
lifetime.

It is estimated that 95 per
cent of all Canadians suffer
from tonth decay at one time-or
another, and as many as 20 per
cent have lost all their teeth by
the age of 35. At 55 years of
age, over half the population
has no tecth at alll

It used to be thal dentists
only repaired teeth that were
already damaged. Now. “pre-

ventive dentistry” is becoming
more and more important.
Preventive dentistry aims to
keep teeth healthy by stopping
tooth decay and other dental
problems before they start.

Experts in preventive den-
tistry are working iard to find
new ways to fight, cavities.
Maybe some day we will have a
vaceine for tooth decay similar
to thase for polio and German
measles.

But already it is , possible,
by following. your dentist's
advice and using the decay
preventing methods we know
of today, to almost completely
prevent cavities in your teeth.
