Ald CASTLEGAR NEWS, Thursday, August 31, 1978 Health and Welfare Committee Needs Community Feed-back By BUD GODDERIS (The author chairs city “council's health and welfare committee.) City council's health and “welfare committee is largely concerned with the human and social issues which arise in our community. The committee con- sists of myself (Bud Godderis) as chairperson, alderman Len imbree and alderman Albert Calderbank. Thave asked the editor of the Castlegar News for’ the opportunity to report to the people of the community re- specling matters considered important by the health and welfare committee. This was for two reasons: first, the health and welfare committee is responsible to the people of the community; second, the people of the require ade- ad BUD GODDERIS gar is essential for the com- mittee to act responsibly, Pub- lic input can be directed to the quate i in order to through any of its give the committee direction. Feed-back to the. commit- tee from the people of Castle- or through Barry Baldigara, the city clerk. An obvious area of concern to all of us is the future development of the Lower Arrow Lakes region.

They stated there was a need for future public input regarding the settlement op- tions to be opened up to former residents, who were displaced by the building of the Hugh Keenleyside Dam, and also public input regarding the de- velopment of a land-use policy for that area dealing with such important subjects as wildlife management, recreational de- velopment, logging and mining Waldie Family Holds Reunion in Robson A happy event took place in Robson during the recent long weekend when members of: the Waldie family staged a reunion to honor the forthcom- ing golden wedding anniver- v/stry of Mr. and Mrs. W. T. * Waldie and to recognize Mr. + Waldie’s recent 75th birthday. : In addition to the children, S ¥ grandchildren and great grand- *. children of the Waldies, sisters- inlaw, nieces, nephews and > their families assembled, as : well as Mrs, Waldie's cousin {and her husband. The families ‘came from Dawson Creek, : Fernie, Prince George, Vale- mount, Aldergrove, Kimberley, * = Cranbrook and Spokane, as Swell as from the immediate & West Kootenay area. > At noon in the Robson = Hall, over 60 people enjoyed a ? delicious buffet luncheon, pre- “pared by the daughters and *-daughtersi in-law of the honored couple. A beautiful cake, suit- ably decorated with gold and white icing, had been prepared and ice by their granddaughter, Judy Loveland of Spokane. Fred Waldie of Vancouver was master of ceremonies at the luncheon, and Jim Johnson of Cranbrook proposed the toast to Mr. and Mrs, Waldie, with Mr. Waldie making a suitable reply. Led by Jim Waldie of Castlegar, the assem- bly then sung “For They are Jolly Good Fellows.” The gathering moved to the lawns of the Waldie home where they were joined by some of their many friends and neighbors. In the evening, some of those who had come from distant points reluctantly took their departure, but all agreed it had been a happy occasion and hoped for many future Waldie reunions. as well as settle- ment options, City council has since been informed that the requested public meeting will take place soon—possibly in September. Council has also received a report from the Lower Arrow planning committee entitled “Future Development of the Lower Arrow,” which is avail- able at city hall's reading file for examination by any citizen of the community, As it would seem essential that any person who wished to participate knowledgeably in a public meeting regarding the Lower Arrow Lakes should have had an opportunity to study the options put forward in the report, it is unfortunate that only a few copies are available. Some indication has been given that this information will be made more readily acces- sible to the public by the bodies responsible, that is; the Lower Arrow planning committee and the environment and land use committee of the provincial government. person and they don't earn their profit until you've pald for your pa- per.

He was married in Nelson, Having lived on a farm in Salmo for many years, he had acquired a good deal of infor- mation of the area and was able to reflect knuwledgeably on its early history: The Barkleys moved to Castlegar in the early 1970s, Throughout his lifetime, he was involved in public trans- portation, operating taxis and buses in Salmo, Nelson, Trail, Rossland and Castlegar. He is survived by his wife, Isabel; and four sisters, Mrs. Bill (Betty) Anderson of Castle- gar; Mrs, Clara Graham (Castle- gar's first school teacher) and Mrs. Effie Pilkey, both of | Bank of Montreal | Win $150,000 Contest Bank of Montreal custo- mers will have an opportunity to win while they save this fall; 111 Bank of Montreal cus- tomers will be sharing $300,000 in cash prizes, to be won over the next three months, The bank has announced the launch of a “Win $150,000" contest for ils personal chequ- ing and savings depositors, The grand prize is $150,000 cash, with 10 customers to win $5,000 and 100 to be winners of $1,000.

Some of the resolutions that resulted from five work- shops on education immigra- tion, human rights, culture and media can be summed up as follows: 1. That a provincial lan- guage officer be appointed to act on requests from com- munities for the teaching of third languages in schools. 2. That immigrants be bet- ter oriented prior to leaving their homeland. i 3. That it be ized ment of cultures and strength- ening the Canadian identity. 5. That a Human Rights Commission be appointed, as the term of office of the present commission has expired. 6. That field workers ori- ginating from church or com- munity organizations operating on a low-key approach may be able to help solve many of the more subtle and hidden dsi- eriminations. This could be done on the local level by volunteers, not requiring large expenditure. 7.

The water system's un- usual shape allows canoeists to finish the circuit at the starting point. ‘This reduces transporta- tion problems as the car is waiting at trip's end. Most visitors spend some seven to 10 days on the trip around the park, The best time is between June and October, Some outdoors experience ‘and advance ) preparation is essential as travellers must fend for themselves once on the circuit. There are portage trails in a few places and park staff have maintained emergency cabins, Natura! obstacles challenge the visitor. There are seven portages to scramble over; a number of rivers to paddle down or wade up; a waterfall; a series of cascades by bypass; and some- times the frustrating delay of high winds on the lakes.

The whole office and plant force sometimes get in on testing, chewit instead of whistling while they work. “When we get some com- pelitors’ gum we pass it around for reaction,” said Ream, 36. “And if we are working on new formulas or evolving combina- tions. we see how our workers like it. The final test is hy a panel of three specialists.” What makes bubble gum bubble? “Rubber,” said Ream, “Well, let’s put il this way— highly-refined food-yrade latex, synthetic rubber. Flavoring helps in the sale of bubble gum, like it does in all gum, but the big difference is plasticizing characteristics. A good piece of bubble gum should provide a comfortable chew for about 11/2 hours.” Asa gum. chewing, bubble: $2,500.

The favor and sweetness should come out in a consistent manner in the first three to four minutes, “When solubles are chewed out, the insoluble cud is - left and the final chew begins. That's when it’s ready for blowing bubbles. Incidentally, did you know that some base- ball players mix chewing tobac- co with their bubble gum?" Paul Rogers, company president, said one-third of bubble gum chewers are adults, a third pre-teens and a third teenagers. “A big breakthrough came about five years ago when sugarless gum hit the market,” said Rogers. “Bubble gum is a greatly improved, quality pro- duct today and has become more available, reaching the shelves of the super-markets. “Bubbles can be blown anywhere.
