LEO MICHALLIK of Montrose, draftsman for
Cominco,

T really don't see why they should interfere
with each other.

FERN McCREIGHT of Castlegar.

It might cause confusion running them both
at the same time.

BARNEY ROSS of Salmo, an oiler at Cominco,

Tome it doesn’t matter but it could muddle
some people.

TERESA ROBINSON of Balfour.

Do We Need to Ban
Uranium Exploration?

The confrontation between a mining
exploration crew and Genelle residents over
tests on uranium deposits near the China,
Creek watershed last year was part of a
chain of events which eventually prompted
the provincial government to place a
moratorium on uranium mining — but not
exploration — pending the results of a series
of hearings on radiation hazards ‘and

32°F Ideal Temperature
For Storing Fresh Fruit

Now that you've bought all
that delicious farm-fresh fruit,
how do you make it last? A
pomologist — that's a fruit
specialist — has some timely
storage advice lo offer.

Don't wash fruits like
rasperries and strawberries as
they damage easily. They also
develop mold fast so it's best to

eat or freeze them within 24

hours,

e Ideally, fruits should be
stored at temperatures of 82°F
with 85 to 90 per cent humidity.
Under these conditions, grapes
will last three to six weeks;

peaches, nectarines and plums,
two to four weeks; cherries, up
to 14 days.

e Pears and apples that
are picked mature but not
eating-ripe, can be stored long-

Walking Still
The Best

Exercise Form

Walking is still the most
efficient form of exercise you
can do, say researchers report-
ing to a conference at the
National Institute of Health.
The investigators added these
points:

@ Walking is the only form
of exercise you can safely do all
your life, at any age.

e Exercise can enable your
body to maintain a protective
reserve against periods of
stress.

e Daily exercise permits
greater food intake and better
blood circulation, improving
nourishment while preventing
obesity.

e Any exercise programs
should be done under the
supervision of your doctor.

There is a statue of a once-
famous British general, Charles.
Gordon, which shows the gene-
ral mounted on 8 horse,

One day, a small boy was
sight-seeing with his Dad ‘and
one point of interest was the
Statue of Gordon. Later that
“evening, the boy and his father
were talking about what they
,had seen and done,

The father said “Well, you

In our homes, for inatance,
we have to be careful that we
do not put the emphasis on the
material rather. than on the
spiritual, Of course, material
comforts and possessions may
add much to living. But.if we
tend to prize only the things
money will buy, we are putting
the horse in place of the person.

-Centuries ago, a wise He-
brew philosopher wrote in the
Book of Proverbs: “Better is a
dinner of herbs where’ love is
than a fatted ox and hatred

“Yes,” said the small boy,. “I
liked seeing it very much, It’s a
"lovely statue. But tell me Dad,
who is the man on Gordon's
back?”
‘The most important thing
to that small boy was the horse.
To him it was not a statue of a
man on a horse. It was a statue
of a horse with a man on it.
Like the thing, isn't it? We
humans are constantly being
found guilty of placing the
emphasis on what is of second-
ary importance.
