MITCHELL SUPPLY LTD. in Trail and Castlegar When Post No. 1, Native Daughters of British Columbia, decided to re-roof their famous Old Hastings Mill Store Museum as one of their centennial year projects, they dove deeper into the history of this province than anyone realized. Thelr choice of today's. top- demand roofing material — hand split cedar shakes — actually goes back beyond the history of the white man, into native crafts now almost lost And it is part and parcel of every pioncer’s history from| the time of our carliest white settlers, Indians aolng the "Pacific Coast built a complete culture out of the Western Red Cedar, Without it, their history, dress, customs and ways of life might have been vastly different, They carved entire canoes from whole trunks of the dur- able, straight-grained big. trees.

They learned to split small lengths from blocks of the wood, to be pegged onto the roof tim- bers of their cedar-plank houses —the first cedar shakes ever used. Their women made clothing, decorations, cord and rope from the tough inner skin of the bark. They fashioned rain- clothes from the outer bark with its flextble, empermeable texture, From the stringy fibres of the roots they fashioned baskets for every purpose. Pitch-coated basketry was even used to hold drinking water. Early white arrivals in B.C. quickly learned the secrets which shakes are split from a dune Ferry Traffic Up Over Year Ago Traffic using the Castlegar ferry in June showed an increase over.June of 1957, but the.num- ber of round trips was somewhat| lower, according to figures given by district engineer P. B. Mac- 7) Carthy.” There were 3, 1135 round trips compared with 3,206 round trips a year ago. But the number of automo- biles and trucks carried showed| a considerable increase: there were 38,973 in June of this year,|@ against 38,077 last year. Passengers (not including drivers) totalled 90,375, against 89,474, There ‘were 12,240 trucks of: all types,. compared with 12,563 in June of 1957. Trailers and semi-trailers to- talled 622 (485 in June last year); motor’ buses 908 (768).

And soon they learned to reverse the section as shakes were split off, to give each one the desirable taper or slight wedge shape that is so valuable in roofing or siding a cabin or a large home. Some clever settler found he could more easily invert the log section (shake bolt or block) by clamping it in a pivoted frame. Early frames were made of wood: in medern production, the frame is sometimes of metal construc- tion, Other. than that, the making of handsplit shakes has-not chan- ged at all.
