When Anne married
Steve in 1941 she moved to
Castlegar where he had
already been living for six
years. It’s enough to make
1947 arrivals look like
newcomers. Steve, one of the

bought his last pass in 1975.

Anne, after working in the

retired as head nurse in the

Music for Young Children, a
music program designed for
young children ages three to
eight, is coming to the Castle-
gar area.

The program allows chil-
dren to develop musically in a
fun and relaxed atmosphere.

Children meet in groups of
four to six in their own age

category for one hour each
week. The group allows for
social instruction and develop-
ment and it encourages listen-
ing awareness and develops
attention span, a news release
says.

The anniversary celebra-
tion on Sunday was a major
milepost in their rich lives, but
not the only one, and it sym-
bolizes the love and respect
with which they are held by
family and friends.

Our congratulations to
those who organized and
conducted it so well, and to
Anne and Steve who had
made themselves so worthy
of it by the giving of
themselves and, on behalf of
all of us, a thousand thanks.

It was also historically
significant, as Bunny noted,
that in a new country a
couple could get married
and celebrate their golden

District governor delivers

John Charters
COLUMNIST

Rotary district governor
Mitchell Banks ‘gave one of the
best addresses in recent years
to some 45 Castlegar Rotary
Club members, their wives and
guests at the Tuesday night
governor's dinner meeting.

His topic was Aspects of Ser-
vice in Rotary and in the course
of the next five months he will
carry the message to some 45
Rotary Chubs in southeastern
B,C., Washington and Idaho.

He described Rotary as “a

b itr the val-

ue to society of all worthy occu-
pations as well as the worth of
all people, regardless of their
position, who work for us and
for whom we work.”

“We are 1.3 million strong,”
he said, “and if we see each of
our selves as.a candle giving
service, what a light we could
give.”

He then went on to discuss
