Adult Basic Education classes no longer free ARNE PETRYSHEN

Starting next semester, the College of the Rockies will be joining other institutions in B.C. that will be charging for Adult Basic Education (ABE) classes. The change was discussed at the Oct. 8 college board of governors meeting. At the meeting, a number of faculty members and students expressed concerns about the tuition costs and the difficulties that some of the students may have in paying. The college will be bringing the ABE classes in line with university study courses, so one course will cost $305. The Adult Special Education courses, which provide more assistance to students will

cost $450, and the English as a Second Language courses will cost $800. Leslie Molnar, one of those faculty members, said she wanted to raise awareness about he tuition fees. “I understand that the combined government funding cuts to the ESL and the ABE have decreased the college’s operating budget to the tune of around $300,000,” Molnar said, adding she also understands the board’s responsibility to balance finances. But Molnar said she was deeply troubled by yet another shift of the financial burden to the students.

The coin to determine the naming order of the two hosts of the 2018 55+ BC Games has been tossed. It came up in favour of Kimberley and so the games will be known as the Kimberley Cranbrook 55+ BC Games. A celebration marking the successful joint bid to host games by the communities of Cranbrook and Kimberley took place on Friday afternoon at the Canadian Rockies International Airport.

velopment on Sept. 26. Kootenay-East MLA Bill Bennett called the Games a positive thing for the region. He noted the Games bring in thousands of people and will bring in $2 million to the local economy. “Physical activity is a huge part of a healthy lifestyle and the 55+ BC Games provide motivation for getting and staying in shape,” Bennett said. “Cranbrook and Kimberley will benefit from an influx of visitors, and the Games will leave a legacy of community pride.”

Kathryn Teneese, Chair of the Ktunaxa Nation Council, said the Ktunaxa Nation is pleased to have the Games are coming here. “I must commend the work done by the cities of Kimberley and Cranbrook to bring these games here and I look forward to watching the amazing athletes and spirit of competition I’ve come to expect from the BC Senior Games,” Teneese said.

There will also be a huge positive economic spinoff for the whole region. A great opportunity for both communities to showcase all that we have to offer.” Kimberley Mayor Don McCormick said the games are yet another opportunity for the two communities to work together “Thousands of new visitors will see first-hand why we are an amazing market for sport tourism,”McCormick said.

Along with new paddlers there were drummers and steers persons who came to learn and enhance the team. February, March and April were spent on dry land training, with program devised by trainer Jodie Pickering. In May it was off to the pool for technique training and practice led by coaches Deb Thompson and Diane Butz. In June the team was excited to finally get on the water!

Intersection will be designated a 4-way stop while work in progress S ubmit ted

Replacement of the traffic controller and the installation of traffic cameras at the intersection of 14th Avenue South and 2nd Street South in Cranbrook will take place over three days — set to begin on Monday, October 12 , and wrapping up Wednesday October 14, late in the afternoon. Public Works were to begin the work Monday morning by blacking out the existing traffic

lights and installing temporary four-way stop signs. It is the responsibility of all drivers to obey and understand all signage and signals during this project. Before the new signals are operational, there will be a testing phase which will put the signals into a fourway flashing red situation. It is important to recognize that four way flashing red lights at an intersection means

drivers must treat the intersection as a regular four way stop and only proceed once it is safe to do so. Do not proceed on a solid red traffic signal light. As the system is placed into normal intersection operation, there is a 60 to 80 second controller cycle through procedure. This procedure has created some near misses in the past where drivers completely ignore the signals. Drivers must be patient and obey the signals to avoid any potential collisions.

If the student has literacy issues or doesn’t have access to a computer, that in itself can be a barrier.” College president David Wall said they do have listings of what other colleges are charging for the course. He said some have hiked their tuition higher than that. Wall said the fees are meant to recover the costs that were lost with the province’s funding cuts. Wall said there is also a completion

Local Liberal, Green candidates At the Cranbrook Public Library don’t support strategic voting N i co l e T r i g g Invermere Valley Echo

The notion of strategic voting has been gaining momentum in the lead up to the October 19th election among voters against the “first past the post” system who want to see electoral reform before the next federal election in 2019. With the Conservatives vowing to maintain the current voting system, the NDP — who promise to legislate an end to first past the post if elected — are being touted as the party in the Kootenay-Columbia to vote for, based on polls that give them the strongest chance of winning what’s traditionally been a Conservative riding — a perceived advantage that NDP candidate Wayne Stetski has been campaigning on. In the September 11th Black Press Q&A question on proportional representation, Stetski asked voters in the Kootenay-Columbia “to vote together for the NDP to stop Stephen Harper.” “My promise to traditional Green and Liberal voters in this area is that once the NDP

brings in proportional representation, you will never have to vote strategically again,” he said. But according to Bill Green and Don Johnston, the two MP candidates who stand to lose votes if Kootenay-Columbia voters turn to strategic voting, the “anything but Harper” route isn’t the answer. They both encourage people to cast a “positive vote.” “Political scientists have shown why strategic voting doesn’t work,” said Green Party candidate Bill Green. “There are two reasons. Firstly, it is unlikely that you can convince the necessary number of voters to vote for the same ‘second choice’ party. Everyone has different voting preferences. Secondly, people have to guess which party has the best chance based on some combination of past election results and current polling. Both provide very poor guidance. Candidates, campaigns and issues change from election to election, and polls, particularly at the riding level, are usually wrong.”

Liberal Party candidate Don Johnston echoed Green’s opinion on how misleading polls can be. “The real shame with these polls is that they paint a false picture. Leadnow (one of the strategic voting websites) doesn’t review the momentum shift or the impact of national support, and it won’t conduct a second poll without crowdfunding.” He added the local NDP are unlikely to fund a new poll because if it shows erosion of their support, their platform collapses. “As someone wrote to the editor of the Nelson Star, when your primary debate message is to vote strategically against Mr. Harper, it says, ‘don’t look too closely at my policies, my leader, or our candidate’,” said Johnston. “Mr. Stetski tells every audience that he is a ‘fiscally responsible green NDPer,’ that three progressive parties really don’t have many differences, and that polls show he is the only one who can beat our MP. The first line doesn’t tell me much about his political

commitment. The second is a distortion of Green and Liberal policy. The third point is simply false.” “The fact is there are very substantial and important policy differences among the non-Conservative parties,” agrees Green. “Electoral co-operation, through agreements negotiated between parties at the national level, could be a powerful and effective way to address vote-splitting. But an electoral cooperation strategy requires agreement among the parties well before the campaign begins. Both the Liberals and NDP rejected Green Party attempts at co-operation. “There was a huge push for strategic voting during the 2011 election campaign. It failed miserably, with the Conservative Party obtaining its first majority since the mid-1990s,” he said. “Strategic voting is a bad strategy,” said Johnston. “It shifts votes in different directions and, by the end of the election, nobody knows what people really wanted to vote for.”

PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE Public Notice is hereby given that the Municipal Council of the Corporation of the City of Cranbrook is considering adopting “City of Cranbrook Zoning Amendment Bylaw No. 3836, 2015”. The purpose of the proposed Zoning Bylaw Amendment is to add a provision to Section 7.08.3 of the R-3, Cluster Development Zone, in “Cranbrook Zoning Bylaw No. 3737, 2012”, to allow for the creation of smaller parcel sizes when subdividing two family dwellings. Specifically, the proposed amendment will accommodate parcel sizes to a minimum of one half the required size of the R-3 zone when subdividing a two family dwelling for the purposes of creating separate titles for each of the dwelling units. “City of Cranbrook Zoning Amendment Bylaw No. 3836, 2015” may be inspected between the hours of 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding holidays, up until October 19, 2015 as posted on the bulletin board in the foyer at City Hall, or in the office of the Municipal Clerk. The Public Hearing will commence in the Council Chamber, City Hall, 40 - 10 Avenue South at 6:00 p.m. on October 19, 2015 All persons who believe that their interest in property is affected by the proposed Bylaw Amendment may submit written presentations to the City of Cranbrook prior to the date of the Hearing and they may also submit written and/or verbal presentations at the Hearing, thereby allowing all persons an opportunity to be heard on this matter. SUBMISSIONS WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED AFTER THE PUBLIC HEARING. Municipal Clerk

We are writing to express our appreciation to the Daily Townsman staff for their great coverage of the arts in the community, and in particular the Local Coffee House Music Series. Throughout the fall and winter months, the Locals Coffee House puts on five shows, encouraging local musicians and other performers to showcase their talent in front of a usually sold-out audience at the Studio/Stage Door. This venue helps build confidence and hones performing skills for new and seasoned performers as well as raising funds for local music programs in our schools and in the community. It has been very gratifying over the years to see Locals covered so well by the Daily Townsman. Kudos to the staff for your great support in showcasing our amazing local talent over the years.

Elect the Wolves

Elections can be fun, but stressful and divisive; they serve to emphasize the “Us vs. Them” dichotomy. One example of such divisiveness is when someone you considered a friend has the “wrong” sign on his lawn and will vote for the heathens. We thought they had more sense than that, making it difficult for us to practice the supreme virtue of tolerance. Then there are the preposterous promises carried on CBC-TV and radio by the PM and party leaders. These began early in the long campaign and have accelerated to a fever pitch. The economy, jobs, dams, logging, oil and gas drilling and fracking will be decided by corporations and unpredictable future world events that are far beyond the influence of party policies; the promises do not even represent reasonable guesses, amounting to farting in a windstorm. This brings us to another divisive issue, the provincial government’s edict to continue the culling of wolves. Many wolves must be shot in order to save some 15 caribou, whose days are numbered because of things we have done, such as clear cut logging. Caribou inhabit clear cut areas, making them vulnerable to wolves. ATVing and snowmobiling in restricted areas are also disruptive. For caribou it’s too little, too late. Rumors are that we have folks in our midst who love to kill predators in order to increase the number of ungulates they and other hunters can kill. Also, our current Minister of Mines is lecturing us and pontificating about how the predators must be controlled (Townsman-25 September 2015). Predator/prey management is much more than tracking predator/prey numbers and allotting hunting licences. Politicians often say, “I’m not a scientist” to justify a lack of understanding of predator/prey relationships. Yet, they say we must do a “scientific” wolf cull, as supported by our MLA. A popular book which apparently appeals to the “cullers” is The Real Wolf, written by T.B. Lyon-a hunter and trial lawyer. For definitive objective science on the complex predator/prey issue the politicians might read Wolves of the Yukon by R.D. Hayes, a biologist with decades of experience in studying wolves

with and without human intervention. Which authors credentials would seem more relevant? For starters, in this area we could rescue and domesticate the remaining reindeer, leave the wolves alone, stay out of the wilderness-designated forests with machines and carefully regulate ungulate hunting licences.

Vote for what you believe

Thank you to Gary Werk (Vote Strategically) and Sjeng Derkx (Don’t Vote Strategically) for adding to a conversation that I feel is on many people’s minds in Kootenay-Columbia riding (Letters, October 5). I have two problems with voting strategically: 1. Personally, I committed to supporting the Green Party because of their policies. The two people who motivated me to get involved with the Green were Elizabeth May and Bill Green. Elizabeth inspires me with her thinking and with the way she leads by example. Bill will be a superb Member of Parliament for Kootenay-Columbia. I believe very strongly that Bill Green can help build the kind of balanced and fair-minded Canada that our grandchildren will so desperately need in an uncertain world of the future. If I did agree to vote for a party other than Green, my support for them would be very shallow and I would be forsaking political principles I believe in. I would not feel very good about myself. 2. I’ll admit that I pondered the question of strategic voting myself, so I did some reading about it. If you check out the Internet, you will find that most thinkers on the subject say that strategic voting does not work. The main reason? For strategic voting to be successful, a very high majority of people from several different parties must all agree to vote for one candidate in one party. Apparently what does happen is that many people just give up and decide not to vote at all. Those who do vote, switch to a variety of other parties, not just one. Bill Green put it best when he said: “Vote for what you believe in, not for what you do not want.” Finally, the polls Gary Werk refers to seem to be old data. Polling results are in flux nationally and in British Columbia. I understand the results in our own riding are changing almost daily. Jim Duncan Kimberley

Vote for change

So NDP Candidate Wayne Stetski wants change. Well let’s look at what change meant to the citizens of Cranbrook when they voted for change almost four years ago and elected Wayne Stetski as their Mayor. After three years as Mayor, in the 2014 election he received only seven more votes than in the 2011 election; 2,185 to 2,192. He was soundly defeated. In fact, five of the newly elected councillors also received more votes than Wayne did running for Mayor. It seems the citizens of Cranbrook were tired of Mr. Stetski and wanted a change. At the ballot box they

made their point loud and clear. Wayne Stetski must go. As Mayor, Stetski raised taxes over 12 per cent and raised utility rates 10 per cent. He sadly neglected major issues such as roads and infrastructure and the problem with Idlewild Dam, while squandering taxpayers’ dollars on frivolous projects. Wayne Stetski alienated himself from the business community resulting in barriers to business and very little economic growth and activity. Under his leadership, every one of his councillors who ran in the 2014 election was also soundly defeated. Not much success in leadership and direction shown there. His claim to fame was attending over 300 events a year. Many of these had nothing to do with running of the City’s affairs. I suggest Wayne Stetski should have paid more attention to what the citizens of Cranbrook wanted and less attention to his photo ops. Wayne Stetski as Mayor proved to be a prime example of poor performance, poor leadership, and no results. Is this the person you want representing you in Ottawa? Think about this when you are voting for change because as evidenced during his term in Cranbrook, you will absolutely get less than you bargained for! Igor Gallyamov Cranbrook

TPP

The recently negotiated TPP trade agreement is another example of the Harper Conservatives trying to throw the Election in their favour. Again Harper has shown his disdain for democracy by ignoring the Canadian Constitution. According to our Constitution, when Harper dissolved Parliament early, as he did, that placed his Government under rules of the “caretaker convention”. That convention, is exactly what the name implies; a “caretaker” only administration. So the political party in control of Parliament, when it was dissolved, is stripped of its power and is only allowed to act in response to an emergency, such as a natural disaster. The rules of the “caretaker convention” requires, if there is an emergency, the Prime Minister must work with his counterparts in the opposition to make decisions that are in the national interest. Clearly, this obligation to work with the opposition parties was intended so as not to give the out-going Government an unfair advantage during the ensuing election campaign. So whether the TPP is good or bad isn’t the issue (although news out of the USA is that none of their Democratic Party’s presidential candidates are in support) it is Harper’s blatant disregard for our Canadian Constitution and our democracy. Just like the Robo calls and exceeding the spending limits in the previous two elections, Harper’s Conservatives have no qualms whatsoever in breaking the rules to gain an unfair advantage! In Kootenay Columbia, voters have only one choice, Wayne Stetski (NDP), to defeat Steven Harper and restore democracy to Canada. Gary Werk Cranbrook

attempted to micromanage every detail of a timber licence, right down to inspecting for litter left at a logging site. In came “results-based” forest management, where licence holders had to produce a plan showing stream protection and other values. The Forest Practices Board has found these plans often aren’t good for much, although results are generally good when they follow up with on-the-ground audits of actual timber harvest areas. The investigation found that many of the plans cover “vast and overlapping areas of the province, and were written using legal language that makes them very difficult for public understanding or review.” Little has changed since a similar finding in 2006. During that time, the forests ministry was turned into Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations, with greatly increased responsibility over wildlife, mining, gas drilling and so on. Columbia River-Revelstoke MLA Norm Macdonald, who traveled the province as NDP forests critic in recent years, says the problem now is there just aren’t enough people on the ground to assess what’s going on in our huge expanse of Crown land. Meanwhile the city media covers professional protesters issuing demands about the Walbran Valley.

Dynamiters shut out Thunder Cats, Border Bruins Taylor Rocc a Sports Editor

There is no stopping the Kimberley Dynamiters these days. With no questions existing about the team’s offense, which sits first in the KIJHL (48 goals for), the Nitros showed they can play stiff defense this past weekend as they claimed back-toback shutout victories over the Creston Valley Thunder Cats (4-0) and Grand Forks Border Bruins (3-0). Goaltender Tyson Brouwer backstopped the Dynamiters both nights, turning in performances of 30 saves and 24 saves, respectively, laying claim to his third and fourth goose

egges of the season. Forward Jared Marchi provided the offensive punch for the Dynamiters over the weekend. The 20-year-old Kimberley native scored the game-winning goal both nights, and registered a hat-trick in Friday’s triumph over the Thunder Cats. With the wins, the Dynamiters (9-1-0-2, 20 points) maintained their first-place standing in the Eddie Mountain Division, ahead of the second-place Thunder Cats (7-2-0-0, 14). Next up, the Dynamiters take on the Golden Rockets in a homeand-home clash. The Nitros host the Rockets Friday, Oct. 16 at 7 p.m.

HOROSCOPES by Jacqueline Bigar

ARIES (March 21-April 19) You’ll express exactly what is on your mind. Don’t be overly concerned if you witness a lack of response. Others are quietly weighing the pros and cons. Don’t be surprised if someone pulls you aside at a later point to discuss your ideas. Tonight: Nap, then decide. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You could be at a point where you can’t seem to come up with the right answer. A partner is likely to pitch in and help you get through a problematic project. Say thank you in your own way. This person might have an attitude, but don’t let it get to you. Tonight: Return calls. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Make time for a conversation, even if the other person is reticent. You could be overwhelmed by what you hear. Try to remain supportive and positive when dealing with this person. Give more thought to what he or she shares later in the day. Tonight: Off to the gym.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) Stay close to home. A conversation could come up that gives you food for thought. You might feel as if you are being pushed in a certain direction, but need more time to consider your choices. Don’t forget to schedule a dentist appointment. Tonight: Add some spice to the night. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Make an effort to break through someone’s emotional walls. You can be charming and kind, but unless the other party wants to open up, it won’t do any good. Let the issue go if you can’t break through. Give this person some time and space. Tonight: Head home. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You sometimes take your innate skills for granted, and as a result, others do as well. Take some time to yourself to recognize what you have to offer, and refuse to let people take advantage of you. Tonight: Hang out with a pal at a favorite place. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Handle as many important

Tundra

matters as possible today, as your charisma and intellect are peaking. You have an interesting financial predicament coming in. You need to be more aware of your spending. Tonight: Say “yes” to an irresistible offer. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Lie low and listen more closely when engaged in conversation, no matter whom you are dealing with. As a result, you are likely to discover what the other party’s priorities and character traits are. You will learn a lot. Tonight: Beam in what you want. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Don’t avoid a get-together. Remain sure of yourself, as your presence does make a difference. Be responsive to inquiries, and be willing to share your thoughts. You have strong ideas, and you’ll want to use them to help others. Tonight: Make it early. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You stand out when involved with others. You give perceptive feedback, which helps people get past limited thinking. At the

same time, they don’t feel as if you are talking down to them. Recognize your limits in this role. Tonight: Where the crowds are. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) If you’re feeling triggered by a situation, step back and do more listening, and be aware of your reactions. You might want to figure out when you first felt these feelings. You are likely to end up taking on greater responsibility later in the afternoon. Tonight: Not to be stopped. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You might be delighted yet surprised by how much someone else wants to do for you. Relate to this person on a one-on-one level to draw him or her out more. Be willing to make calls and run some important errands later in the day. Tonight: Use your instincts well.

Rhymes with Orange

By Hillary B. Price

ANNIE’S MAILBOX by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: My wife and I are in our early 70s and have two daughters. The younger one lives nearby, is married and has a 2-year-old. The older one, “Deirdre,” is divorced from a verbally and emotionally abusive husband. We had warned Deirdre against marrying this man because they seemed incompatible, but we were supportive when she insisted she loved him. They moved 2,500 miles away, and we traveled as often as possible to see her and show that we cared. When she called at 3 a.m., crying and begging me to talk to her husband, I traveled alone to comply. We suggested they seek counseling, which they did, but it didn’t help. When Deirdre filed for divorce, we paid for her lawyer. When her ex left her high and dry, we paid for a new car so she could get to work and drive her daughter to school. We pay their airfare to come here for summers and holidays. Annie, we are on a fixed income and it takes a lot of sacrificing to pay for all of these expenses. When we visit, my wife cooks and helps our granddaughter with her homework, while I clean house and take her to and from school. Meanwhile, she has become just as confrontational as her mother. The girl never says thank you, is not affectionate toward us and has no respect for our authority. Recently, Deirdre became angry when our granddaughter called her at work in tears over a broken necklace. We were partly blamed for the incident and we flew back home upset and are currently not on speaking terms with Deirdre. I recently sent her a birthday card with a check, telling her that I will always love her. I don’t want to sever relations, but this relationship negatively affects my wife and I wonder whether there is a better solution. -- Up the Creek Without a Paddle Dear Creek: Yes. Let go. Deirdre is difficult and her life with an abuser didn’t help. Her daughter is a combination of her parents, so you cannot expect sweetness and light from the girl. What you can do is accept them as they are. You are equating your financial sacrifices with your treatment, but it won’t always match up. Do what you feel comfortable doing, but without expecting an emotional reward. Deirdre and her daughter could benefit from counseling, and you can suggest it, but again, keep your expectations in check. It will save you a lot of grief in the long run. Dear Annie: Oct. 13 is Metastatic Breast Cancer Awareness Day. Metastatic breast cancer is cancer that has spread from the breast to other organs in the body, most commonly the bones, liver, lungs or brain. Unfortunately, most of us diagnosed with MBC will eventually die from the disease. Additional research and treatment development will help a great many patients in the future. Please urge your readers to get informed. -- New York Dear New York: Thank you for the timely reminder. Anyone who is interested in more information can contact the Metastatic Breast Cancer Network at mbcn.org or the National Cancer Institute at cancer.gov. We’ll be thinking of you.

Harlan Dee Nickell passed away peacefully on October 5, 2015 at Foothills Medical Centre in Calgary. Dee was born on August 24, 1959 in Milden, Saskatchewan. The Nickell family moved to Cranbrook in 1966 and Dee became a fast friend to many. In his youth he enjoyed minor hockey and baseball, but his biggest thrill was helping his Dad to make ice at the old curling rink (now Kinsmen Arena) late at night and was proud to curl in the menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s league as a boy. He loved curling and all the camaraderie that went with it and met many dear friends. Dee hired on with CP Railway in 1977 but when it was discovered that he was only 18 he was let go and told to return in a few months, once he turned 19. He did just that, and after two years of being a brakeman, signed up for the Locomotive Engineers Training Program in Vancouver. At the time he held the distinction of being the youngest engineman in BC. He returned to Cranbrook in the early 80â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and drove dump truck for his Dad on his days off with CPR. He stepped away from his railway career in 1986 to work permanently alongside his Dad, who had a John Deere 450 cat and a dump truck. Father and son worked together nurturing and growing Nickell Excavating Ltd. and were known for their integrity, efficient work ethic and skilled knowledge. Dee had a gentle touch when operating his excavator that others envied. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everyone stops what theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing and watches the big yellow machine do all the workâ&#x20AC;? would be said in frustration at the end of a work day, but really his work was being admired. Although a prairie boy at heart, he had a deep love for the mountains.

Doña Dolores Elizabeth “Lola” Chávez de Armijo’s librarian battle Mike Selby

Most of us might crumble under the weight of seven names, but Doña Dolores Elizabeth “Lola” Chávez de Armijo carried hers just fine.

Born in 1858, little is known about Lola’s mother, but her father was quite famous. Jose Francisco Chávez was part of New Mexico’s political aristocracy: his own father was inspec-

tor general of the state’s military forces (called New Mexico Territory at the time), and his step-father was the territory’s governor. He left a career in medicine to fight against the Navajo,

and again to fight against the Confederacy. He retired from the military to study law, and worked as a district attorney in Albuquerque before being elected to Congress.

of his friends as the new State Librarian, but — as she had zero library experience — her appointment was rejected by the state legislator. McDonald then changed tactics and dismissed Lola altogether, stating that as a “woman,” she “was not qualified under the constitution and laws of New Mexico to hold office.” This was quite a charge. Forgetting for the moment that he had previously tried to install a woman in the post, librarians at any governmental level are mostly women (83 percent in fact). He also didn’t know or didn’t care that Lola was a held in the highest regard as New Mexico’s Chief Librarian, and her policies of librarianship were being modelled all over the country. The New Mexico Mercury poked fun at McDonald’s transparent efforts to reward his cronies, stating the new governor somehow believed that the “female anatomy seriously in-

hibited successful librarianship through blockage of the card catalog by breasts,” as well as “the uterus’s notoriously bad reference skills.” Lola had no choice but to file a suit against McDonald, citing the unfamiliar term of “gender discrimination.” The New Mexico Supreme Court ruled in her favour, allowing her to keep her job. More importantly, a legal precedent was set, allowing women to hold office not only in New Mexico, but throughout the United States. Lola kept her position as State Librarian until 1917. She was authoring a book of recipes when she passed away in 1929. It was published posthumously in 1934 as ‘The Mexican Cook Book,” written by (yes, all seven names) Doña Dolores Elizabeth Lola Chávez de Armijo.

Chávez was shot and killed in 1904, while having dinner at a friend’s house. The bullet came from outside the home, and to this day no one knows if his murder was a random act of violence or apolitically motivated assassination. Besides appearing in every New Mexico history book since then, Chaves County in New Mexico is named after him, home of the city of Roswell (yes, that Roswell). Lola was 46 when her father was murdered, and much like his killer, her life before this time remains unknown. What is known is that in 1909, New Mexico’s Governor George Curry appointed Lola as State Librarian. Not only was she the first woman to hold a governmental appointment, but also the first Hispanic woman to do so. In 1912 Governor Curry was replaced by William C. McDonald, who had very little use for Lola. He quickly appointed the wife of one

time of the crash. A 30-year-old man died at the scene. Three other people were transported to hospital. RCMP are now investigating the cause of the crash. Need help with current events?
