2015 RAV4

Two RCMP officers are being praised by a local family for rescuing their dog from a ravine in Williams Lake Monday. Bev Bradshaw said their fiveyear-old dog, Tucker, became stuck on a ledge about half way down a steep 400-foot embankment above the Williams Lake River Valley on Sunday. Her husband, Brett, had taken Tucker with him to the scrap yard on Frizzi Road. “Tucker took off chasing a raven or something and never returned,” Bev said. Throughout Sunday Brett and Bev took turns looking for Tucker, but they could not find him. Bev said he never barks. On Monday, Bev’s stepson Cody Bradshaw and his girlfriend, Jessica Armstrong, returned to the River Valley to look for Tucker and spied him up on the embankment. At first the family tried to retrieve the dog themselves with ropes borrowed from Bev’s parents, but they were having no luck. “Brett got within 50 feet of Tucker but every time he moved closer rocks were falling on him, and Tucker was just whining.”

Collision in Williams Lake claims one life A crash Friday evening in Williams Lake has claimed the life of a man, said RCMP Insp. Milo MacDonald of the Williams Lake Detachment. The BC Coroners Service confirmed Tuesday Allan Mark Shewchuk of Williams Lake, 52, succumbed to his injuries after being transported to hospital following the incident. Police said they were advised of a serious collision at 7:21 p.m. between two vehicles on Mackenzie Avenue North near 168 Mile Road. Officers arrived on scene to learn a commercial vehicle was travelling south followed by a Ford Explorer. According to police, at some point the Explorer pulled out to pass the tractor trailer unit but, while doing so, the driver clipped the front of the tractor

unit and lost control of the vehicle causing it to roll several times. The driver of the Ford Explorer was the lone occupant in the vehicle. The cause of the collision is under investigation but alcohol is suspected to be a contributing factor. Emergency services including the RCMP, Central Cariboo Search and Rescue, BC Ambulance and the Williams Lake Fire Department attended the scene while the road was closed for several hours. Fire chief Des Webster said the fire department responded to the emergency to clean up a fuel spill caused when the Explorer struck the fuel tank on the tractor trailer. The BC Coroners Service and RCMP Traffic Services are continuing to investigate.

After anchoring himself to a tree, Cropley repelled

down to Tucker. “It was really steep and the poor dog was stuck on a ledge above a cliff,” Cropley said Tuesday. “I didn’t know if he was going to bite me, but when I reached him I realized he wasn’t going anywhere on his own. He was too scared.” Cropley clipped Tucker into a lanyard, and the two sidesloped along the ledge until Cropley found a deer trail they could walk down. Once they reached the bottom, Cropley walked Tucker over to

the creek so he could get a drink, and then brought him up to reunite with his family. “It was just amazing,” Bev said of the RCMP’s efforts. “They definitely deserve recognition for the compassion they showed to an animal.” Tucker is a Rotweiller English Bull Dog and has been with the Bradshaws for a year. Bev said he is very close to their 10-yearold son Cody Hurren. On Tuesday Tucker was off to the vet for a checkup because his right back leg was very stiff and sore.

cue, ICBC, Interior Roads, the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure, the City of Williams Lake and Community Policing volunteers handed out goodie bags. “We really want to get awareness going this year,” said Diana

Pozer, road safety coordinator with ICBC. “The more people we can get the word out to get the mind set ready as well as their vehicles the better.” People were reminded that winter tires should be on by now, that lights and wipers

need to be working, and a mechanical checkup is recommended. “Hopefully people will take advantage of the time change and rest up,” Pozer added. “The days will be shorter now so we will have less light when driving.”

Williams Lake RCMP say no serious incidents during Halloween night Halloween night was steady but calm for Williams Lake RCMP, according to Staff Sgt. Del Byron of the Williams Lake RCMP detachment. “We had a couple of minor incidents,” By-

ron said Monday. Someone called the police because they thought a person at the Overlander Pub had a gun, but it turned out to be a toy gun and part of a costume. In another incident

someone found a toy gun and was walking through Boitanio Park, which resulted in a phone call to police. “There were no charges in those cases,” Byron said.

November, the blah month

Remembrance Day a time to reflect

HAPPY HALLOWEEN

wo things made Halloween special this year. It didn’t rain or snow, and the clocks didn’t change back until Sunday morning so trick and treaters could make their rounds in dry daylight. I had no T&Ts last year and that wasn’t any fun so this year I went to son No. 3’s house, which is in a high traffic area on Halloween. Only 197 customers at the door, down from other years. Fewer masks, many painted faces, some were works of art. There was a wide variety of costumes, from Ninja Turtles to zombies and many little princesses. One lad had a “Happy Halloween” sign. A goodly number of the adults accompanying the little ones were French dressed up too. Connection Couldn’t help Diana French noticing how polite everyone was, many thank yous. There were some innovative treats too, little tubs of play dough, packages of ramen noodles among the candy and bags of cheezies and chips. I heard there were some young techies out and about advising each other via cell phone which houses were giving out the best stuff. I didn’t see the fireworks but I understand the shows here and at the 150 were awesome. *** And now it’s November, not my favourite month. November looks dowdy and dismal and acts sulky and shifty. You can’t count on it for anything. According to those who keep track, 2015 has a 97 per cent chance of being the world’s hottest year on record. I don’t know where Cariboo Chilcotin fits in. We used to have seven distinct seasons, Fall, Indian Summer, Freezeup, Winter, Breakup, Spring and Summer. Each had its own ideas regarding timing and length, e.g. winter was always too long and summer too short. Fall began in September and the rest followed more or less in line. We still have seasons but they keep changing. Last winter couldn’t make up its mind and kept springing away then coming back. November is a season of its own. The blah season. Having Christmas marketing start before Remembrance Day does nothing to enhance it either. Diana French is a freelance columnist for the Tribune. She is a former Tribune editor, retired teacher, historian, and book author.

Our Viewpoint

Post office must adapt The news that Canada Post is halting installation of community mailboxes across the country will surely be greeted as good news by many. Opposed by both the union representing postal workers and residents who prize door-to-door delivery, the Crown corporation’s efforts to move towards community boxes was always going to be a tough sell. The conversion program was made more difficult by Canada Post themselves, who, in the face of evidence of widespread theft from the boxes, clamped down on information and went into a shell. While mail delivery is hardly the most important service provided by the federal government and the agencies and corporations under its control, the fact that both the Liberals and the NDP thought it politically advantageous to halt the installation of community mailboxes speaks to the failure of Canada Post to sell its initiative to the public it serves.

Which is not to say that initiative is without merit. Indeed, it’s hard to argue that mail delivery has not decreased in importance since the rise of the internet. The amount of mail has been shrinking for years and will only drop more in years to come. Furthermore, many people already receive mail in community boxes in townhouses and apartments. It’s hardly ridiculous for Canada Post, and the government that owns it, to consider ways to reduce costs – even if it means service will not be the same as 50 years ago, when postal delivery played a much larger role in Canadians’ day-today lives. The incoming Liberal government will be expected to keep its promise to protect home delivery. But that shouldn’t entail a blank cheque for a service in need of modernization. -Black Press

e take time every year on Nov. 11 to remember those who have given their lives defending the freedoms and values we cherish. Nov. 11 marks the end of the First World War, which ended at the 11th hour on the 11th day of the 11th month in 1918 — a conflict in which more than 60,000 Canadians died. Remembrance Day is a time to reflect on the sacrifices made by the men and women of our armed forces, who gave their lives to defend our country, and what it means. Today, we wear poppies in the days leading up to Remembrance Day as a symbol of respect for those who have made the ultiMLA mate sacrifice. They also reMusings mind us to give Donna Barnett thanks to the men and women who serve in our armed forces today, and who are willing to put themselves in danger to keep us and others safe. Since 1921, the Royal Canadian Legion’s poppy campaign has helped provide direct assistance for former service people in financial distress, as well as funding for medical appliances and research, home services, care facilities and numerous other purposes. It is also worth knowing that there is proper etiquette for wearing a poppy. The poppy should always be fastened on clothing on the wearer’s left-hand side, close to the heart. Poppies should not be fastened on hats or other objects. In Williams Lake, Remembrance Day ceremonies begin at 10 a.m. with a short service in the Gibraltar Room at the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex. From there, veterans will march to the cenotaph at city hall where there will be speeches, pipes, a chaplain’s address and the laying of 32 wreaths, including one by Jan Hermiston, this year’s Silver Cross Mother, whose son Darren is on active duty. There will also be a Missing Man Formation fly-by, an impressive aerial salute by members of the Williams Lake Flying Club. Later, a wreath will be laid at the Korean War cenotaph at the Legion. As we remember the countless Canadians who gave their lives for our freedom, let’s also thank the veterans who are still with us, and those men and women serving in the armed forces today. Donna Barnett is the Liberal MLA for the Cariboo-Chilcotin.

More time needed for rail tie discussion Editor: What is this about “Input needed on rail ties” on page one of the Williams Lake Tribune’s Oct. 23 newspaper? By starting with little or no information, we are told the public has roughly two weeks to voice our opinions regarding a move by Atlantic Power Corporation to raise its limit on burning old rail ties from the current five per cent to 50 per cent. This is a matter that concerns everyone.

We had this same discussion regarding burning old rail ties some years ago in Kamloops when I lived there. Since most conscientious people lead busy lives, it took some time for the interest in the topic to build up. Then more time for controversy to heat up as the public became more knowledgable. In the end, Kamloops rejected having chemically-treated ties pollute the atmosphere and affect the health of the present and possible

future generations. Certainly, more time is needed. To get the requested “needed” input out in the open in such a short period of time seems ridiculous. I have also just heard that city council has already approved Atlantic Power Corporation’s request. Could this possibly be true? If so, whatever happened to public input?

Question of the week

In the Oct. 28 Williams Lake Tribune there is a letter about the wolf kill. I retired from work near Likely and moved to Penticton after 43 years in the Cariboo. The wolf kill is not necessary if the people who manage the wildlife resources had any clue as to what they are doing. First they started printing the regulations for a two-year period. Then they moved the cow calf season on moose from early October to late November, early December. The snow has driven most moose to lower valleys by then and

hunters on snowmobiles drive up, get off and kill them. Mostly the cow because she is the largest. The calf dies from starvation or the wolves get it. A couple of years ago the wildlife branch did an aerial search in special areas of the Cariboo. Where, you ask? It was in the Likely area. There was about 65 per cent loss of moose in a short time. Moose is the main winter food of the wolf, not caribou or beef cows, although a few years back a bright wildlife program was flying dead winter kill beef out to Spanish and Polley lakes, as well as Quesnel Lake. I know because I saw them while ice fishing.

The people who dream up these seasons should all be fired. If there are no moose left it’s because of them, not the wolf. I hunted moose for many years and know they’re hard to find but there is still a long cow, calf season. Lots of people have signed petitions to have the season stopped but are being ignored by wildlife people who don’t have a clue what they are doing. If I was a rancher I would shoot a wolf near my cattle. It’s not the wolf that’s the problem, but the clueless wildlife officials. Don Agnew Penticton, B.C.

Quality care falling by the wayside Editor: It is with profound sadness that I announce the passing of quality care after a long and valiant struggle with the system. Common sense has been gone for some time now, and empathy was replaced by apathy. To the taxpayers I send my thanks. Your contributions were to extend quality care’s life, ensuring a system where “every person matters.” Unfortunately, the government has entered into contracts to ensure that quality care was provided for and had not the time nor inclination to see to it that the contract was indeed honoured. The legal system, MLA’s office and IH investigations, failed as well. My 90-year-old great aunt appreciates your continued financial support. For the care-aids, nurses and

Last but not least, are the staff of the activities departments. You are the people who with the least amount of funding available, provided quality care with the companionship so badly needed in those final days. The veterans, seniors and disabled will be needing you more than ever with the passing of quality care. You remained ever optimistic for the future and were proactive with quality care’s

Quality care witnessed the passing of transparency, professionalism, accountability, integrity, honesty, compassion and ethics. Survived now by love, forgiveness, and hope.

No difference between pesticides Editor: Re: the recent letter to the editor by Andrew Merritt, “Organic foods need labelling, too; Oct. 28 Tribune,” concerning pesticides in organic foods: I agree. Pesticides licensed for use in organic farming must be naturally occurring. Since they are natural, testing and labeling is not required. Pyrethrum, used in organic farming, is obtained from chrysanthemums. Scientists isolate the chemicals by which some plants resist certain pests and manufactures them

commercially. There is no actual difference between naturally occurring pesticides and manufactured ones. One of the traits that genetic modifying has introduced in some plants is a natural resistance to certain insects or diseases so that no added pesticides are needed.

GETTING ALONG WITH OTHERS Your Preschooler and… Getting Along With Others

Up until now, your preschooler has been mostly concerned with his or her own needs.Usually around the third birthday, this “egocentric” view of the world begins to change. Typically, your child will be more interested in playing with friends, although friendships may be short-lived. Your child may be able to show empathy, take turns, and begin to understand the idea of sharing. As well, more and more preschoolers are able to follow rules and instructions and are interested in seeking approval from adults. It is important to set basic rules and stick to them consistently. Getting along with both children and adults so that your child may do well in a group environment is a very important part of helping your child get ready for school.

Your family depends on you to drive safely. Plan ahead and drive for the conditions.

Try some of these with your preschooler: 1. Most preschoolers look for approval. Give approval (with encouraging words and actions like smiling) for taking turns and waiting for a turn as a part of your child’s everyday routine. 2. Introduce your preschooler and friends to simple games that require taking turns, such as card games like Go Fish. 3. Give simple one or two-step instructions to follow and then praise your child for listening and completing the task. Be delighted and supportive when your child behaves well. 4. Model respect by saying things like “please” and “thank you” to your child. 5. Encourage your child to have regular responsibilities around the home. An activity such as choosing clothes independently allows your child to get used to routines and expectations as toWinter.ca a part of the day. 6. See how others do it. Reading books about friends with your child is another way to introduce your child to socializing. 7. Provide lots of opportunities for your child to interact with friends. Set up play dates with friends on a regular basis. Encourage your child to say “Hello” to playmates when he or she sees them. 8. Keep play dates short – one to two hours, and small – one to two friends. Make available a variety of activities that children will enjoy. 9. Be available. Supervise your child. Don’t just leave the children to play by themselves and hope for the best. Be close by in case they can’t solve their own conflicts, stop playing together, or need a change of activity. 10. Take your preschooler to another child’s home. Provide the experience of playing away from your child’s own home and learning the rules of another family. Depending on your child’s comfort level, consider leaving your preschooler in the home of trusted friends without you, first for a short time and then for longer periods. 11. Invite your own friends over. Since young children pay close attention to what adults do and often imitate their behaviour, model for your child by inviting adults to visit in your home. Have a double play date with a friend who has children.

Removal of trees was completed in the area last winter to reduce tree encroachment on natural grasslands. The upcoming ecosystem restoration burn is intended to reduce the remaining fuel load from that work. During the spring of 2016, low-intensity ground fires will be introduced to the area as a follow-up treatment.

Tlet’inqox celebrates new school

NOTICE OF MEETING Child Development Centre Annual General Meeting Monday, Nov. 16, 2015 ~ 7:00 pm 690 N. 2nd Avenue Aileen Hewett Building

Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer The new $10 million school at Tlet’inqox (Anaham) First Nation is an investment the community can be proud of, said Chief Joe Alphonse. “It is very well built,” Alphonse said. “We made sure we had the best carpenters and electricians and had a project manager on site. I demanded everything be built to code and beyond.” The only portion saved from the old school was the gymnasium, which was built in 1981. “When we went to tear the school down, the blueprints told us one thing, but we found they cut corners,” Alphonse said. “Where they should have used half inch pipe they used quarter inch pipe, things like that.” During a celebration to mark the school’s opening held last week, a plaque was installed honouring Laura Sarah Mack who was the first person from the community to gradu-

Later they were allowed to go to Grade 8, but after residential school we had the ability to go right up to Grade 12.” When that change happened the first graduate was Mack, who graduated in 1967 in Kamloops. Anaham has never had the ability to offer high school education, but Alphonse said they’d like to get there one day. Right now the

school is Kindergarten to Grade 7 and is run as an independent school, separate from School District 27. The old school library, staff room and art room were salvaged and the plan is to strip them down to an open concept community space. Any community meetings, art programs, or fundraising events will be able to take place in there. “We want to have a lot of meetings and host people, but we don’t want to interfere with the every day operation of the school,” Alphonse added.

Pottery and Art Show Nov. 6-7 Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Artists with the Cariboo Potters’ Guild and the Cariboo Arts Society are gearing up for their annual fall show and sale taking place at the Central Cariboo Arts Centre this weekend. “This is our biggest sale of the year,” said Jude Prevost, cochair of the Cariboo Potters’ Guild. “We should have around a dozen different potters selling pieces.”

Members of the arts society will be selling calendars, paintings, cards and bookmarks, she added. Prevost and cochair Caren Pritchard said this year’s show will feature some works by newer members of the guild. “We give classes in January with new potters and eventually they take the plunge to put works in the show,” Prevost said. “There are quite a few this year.” Pritchard said it

does not have to be intimidating to be part of the show because often when potters are starting out they will share a table with three or four people. Prevost said she has been having fun creating some of her pieces with a Christmas theme while Anna Roberts will be there with her burnished clay pottery that looks more natural. Presently the potters’ guild has about 40 members who

throughout the year use two kilns at the arts centre and a gas kiln at a member’s home. They also do two raku firings a year at a member’s home, Pritchard said, adding people are welcome to join the guild at anytime. “We usually meet the first Monday of the month,” she said. Admission is free, the sale runs noon to 8 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 6 and Saturday, Nov. 7 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Karen Thompson (left) and Terri Smith tip their glasses at a piece called the Crow Bar Thursday during the opening of the Station House Gallery’s latest art show, Murders and Unkindness, dedicated to exploring the theme of crows and ravens.

Crows, ravens take flight in new art show Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer The latest exhibit at the Station House Gallery is about taking a theme and running with it creatively. In Murders and Unkindness, artists Terri Smith, Karen Thompson, Lynn Capling, Julie Burns, Susan Fletcher and Raymond Fletcher explore the theme of crows and ravens. Included in the show are sculptures, textiles, paintings, facts and folklore, along with some installations that enjoy a wonderful play on words. A fun piece titled the Crow Bar depicts several birds mingling at the counter for a drink. “As we get older we have different understandings of what things mean,” Thompson said of her creation during the show’s opening Thursday. Alongside an array of tasty crow and raven treats placed on a mantle in the upstairs gallery, Capling placed a quote by Thomas Jefferson which evoked many smiles during the evening. “If you have to eat crow, eat it while it’s young and tender,” the quote reads. Smith said many people were asking why crows and ravens?

Cariboo artist Raymond Fletcher with the raven sculpture he created for Murder and Unkindness, now on at the Station House Gallery. She went on to explain that every year Thompson and some of her friends go away to Gibsons for an art week where they have fun being creative. During that week, Thompson made a crow and mounted it on a piece of driftwood she found on the beach. From that one piece, she was encouraged to do a show. When Smith, who happens to be her daughter, said she would collaborate with her on an exhibit, they invited the rest of the gang, who also all happen to be related in some way.

“Crows and ravens are the trickster animal,” Smith said. “They are in mythology and everywhere that people are.” Crows and ravens are also very beautiful, clever, intelligent, fascinating and will to eat the garbage no one else will, she added. As they researched for the show Thompson admitted it was a bit of a transformation as far as her attitude towards crows and ravens goes. All her life growing up and living on a ranch, they were not her favourite birds.

“But doing this show and working on it, I’ve kind of made my peace with them and you could probably notice, I’m starting to look like one,” she smiled. Raymond used to fly an ultralight and had a raven who liked to accompany him when he was flying, he said when it was his turn to talk about the show. “Once he learned he could fly much better than me, he used to like to play with me up there,” he chuckled. “He could outmaneuver me.” Some of the items Raymond used to create a sculpture of a raven were an old earth scraper, bicycle fork, excavator tooth and a pressure gauge. He had flowers in the earth scraper for years and then turned it upside down to make the raven, he said. “I call it the Trickster, aka the cocky raven,” he added, noting the scraper probably was kept busy during the gold rush days. Using newspaper clippings, Smith created a set of three pieces where ravens are commenting on the news. “Not a single murder in today’s paper,” a crow comments in one of the pieces. Murders and Unkindness is on display until Nov. 21.

Everyone is welcome to the OAPO’s bazaar, luncheon and bake sale coming up Thursday, Nov. 5 from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at the Seniors Activity Centre. There will be sewing, crafts, raffles, and door prizes. The shepherd’s pie lunch is $6.

Brett Kissel performing live in Williams Lake At 25 singer/songwriter Brett Kissel is realizing a dream that began when his grandmother presented him with his first guitar at just six years old. Propelling him to centre stage in the hearts of country fans are hit songs such as 3-2-1, Started With A Song from his debut album by the same name, and Airwaves, his latest number one hit in Canada. More than 93 per cent of Canadian country stations added Started With A Song to their play list eclipsing the record for most adds at Canadian Country radio in one week, a record previously held by Taylor Swift. His second album Pick Me Up was released in September and songs from that album as well will likely be part of his upcoming show at the Gibraltar Room in Williams Lake Thursday, Nov. 12. Kissel, a fifth generation Albertan, born and raised on a cattle farm in Flat Lake, northern Alberta, now lives with his wife, Ce-

cilia Friesen, in Nashville, Tennessee. His grandmother gave him his first guitar when he was six years old and it wasn’t long before he started playing, singing and writing his own songs. He released his first album Keepin’ It Country when he was just 12 years old, produced by Freddie Pelletier, and released three additional independent albums, By Request in 2004, Tried and TrueA Canadian Tribute in 2006, and My Roots Run Deep in 2008. In 2006 at age 16 Kissel was nominated for the Chevy Trucks Rising Star Awards at the Canadian Country Music Association Awards making him the youngest CCMA nominee in the history of the show. In late 2012 Kissel wrote and recorded a song and video about the 2012-13 NHL lockout, Hockey, Please Come Back. The music video for the song was viewed 10,000 times in its first two days of release.

Timberwolves finish with three wins and a loss in Quesnel Despite having a strong tournament, the Williams Lake Midget Timberwolves ended up on the outside looking in of the playoff rounds during a tournament in Quesnel last weekend. A slow start in their first game against Prince George saw the Timberwolves trailing 4-0 just minutes into the contest. Williams Lake answered back to tie the

game at 4-4 midway through the second period, however, fell asleep for a four-minute span that saw Prince George run off another four consecutive goals to go up 8-4. Williams Lake attempted to claw back but couldn’t recover, falling 9-6. Leading the T-wolves was Cody Swan with two goals and an as-

sist, Will Paynton with three assists and Spencer Neufeld with two goals, while Mitch Labossiere and Owen Powers each tallied singles. Next, Williams Lake took on Prince Rupert and came out strong scoring on the first shift of the game as Neufeld slipped one in off a setup from Paynton. The Timberwolves continued their strong

defensive play throughout the game and skated away with a 4-2 win. Williams Lake heavily outshot Prince Rupert, whose goaltender was strong throughout the contest. Cory Loring, Swan and Jared Yuill also lit the lamp for the T-wolves, while Hayden Lyons picked up the win between the pipes. In its last round robin game Williams Lake,

'Frank's Way' or the highway: part one Barry Sale Smart 55

By the summer of 1863 the Cariboo Wagon Road was completed well past Deep Creek. The road veered to the north at 150 Mile House then swung over to Mountain House, then proceeded east through Deep Creek, avoiding Williams Lake altogether. Some 1,400 acres of good growing land was purchased at Deep Creek by the road contrac-t o r , G.B. Wright, and a partner, Franklin Way. At the 164 Mile post they built a substantial, two-storey log stopping house, which became known as 164 Mile House or Deep Creek House. Frank Way was a true character. He had a reputation as a crude, practical joker and an incurable loudmouth. He was also out to make a buck in any way he could, legal or not. Originally, he had operated a stopping house (the California House at Spuzzum) from 1858 to 1862. During the early

years of the gold rush he made all sorts of money ferrying miners and their possessions across the Fraser River for 50 cents per head. Often in a day he would fill a tin bucket with silver and gold. On one occasion his boat capsized and everyone but Frank drowned. The local newspaper reporter was interviewing him after the incident and Frank was asked: “Was there much loss?” Frank replied: “Oh, no. I always collect the fares in advance!” Deep Creek House was never known for its hospitality and its accommodations received mixed reviews. Frank fed the travellers well. He raised his own beef, sheep, potatoes, turnips, greens and a wide variety of vegetables, and he had 150 acres of wheat.

Deep Creek House, or the 164 Mile House. But, he did not keep the rooms very clean and he seldom washed the tablecloths, linen or bedding. One group of travellers who had stopped for the evening did not like the meal being served on a food-stained, greasy tablecloth. They called Frank over to complain. “What’s the matter with it?” asked Frank. “Why, it’s as black as ink.” said one of the travellers. “Look here, cap,” said Frank. “You should be thankful you’re eating off a tablecloth. Six or 700 other men have eaten off it, and you’re the

first to complain!” But it could never be said that Frank did not listen to his customers. The next day he swapped the offending tablecloth with one of the bed sheets that had also not been washed for quite some time, but did not have as many grease spots on it. The stagecoach passengers usually rented the rooms that had beds in them, while the miners and gold seekers would just bed down on the floor in front of the fireplace in the main parlour. This could lead to problems when others were drinking heavily and/or were into a lively card game. In a journal, one miner wrote about looking forward to a good night’s rest, but Frank and a group of gamblers were drinking, swearing and generally having a rousing time. On several occasions, one or more of the other guests pleaded with them to quiet down. Frank finally

Photo submitted

responded: “If you don’t like the ways of Way, why then you can be on your merry way!” and kept right on partying. In 1864, the Western Union Telegraph Co. was putting a line through to the north. They wanted to winter their horses there at Deep Creek and they decided to purchase grain from Frank Way. There were lots of back and forth negotiations, but finally a price of eight cents per pound for the grain was agreed upon. Frank suggested that large boxes, four feet by four feet by two feet deep with projecting handles be filled, weighed and used as a standard measure for the grain. The company reps agreed, so a box was built, then weighed empty. Then, Frank’s hired hands began shovelling grain into it. - This edition of Haphazard History will be continued in next month's Smart 55.

Joe Zayonc (left), 90, and George Keener, 83, enjoy coffee Monday morning at the Hearth Restaurant at the Cariboo Friendship Society. The two have been friends since 1946.

Fond memories shared among friends Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Joe Zayonc and George Keener have been friends approaching 70 years. The two first met when Zayonc arrived in Williams Lake from northern Alberta in 1946. “There were no jobs in Alberta and I was starving,” Zayonc said. Nodding toward Keener, while the two men enjoyed a cup of coffee at the Cariboo Friendship Centre’s Hearth Restaurant recently, Zayonc said one of the first things Keener did was take him fishing. “We went to Lyne’s Dam north of Deep Creek and caught some trout,” Keener reminisced, as he held out his arms to demonstrate the size of the fish. “They were big, 12, 14 and 16 inches.” The two friends worked for P and T Lumber at a time when earning $2.70 an hour was the norm.

They recalled the generous Christmas hampers all the employees were given. “If you drank, you got a 40 ounce bottle of whiskey too,” Keener said, adding he quit drinking 46 years ago and Zayonc quit 40 years ago. A favourite drinking hole on the way home from work was at the Maple Leaf Hotel, where Caribou Ski Source For Sports is today. Zayonc’s late wife Mary worked as the cook for the company’s middle camp on Six Mile Hill and made the best borscht, Keener said. Outside of work, the two men were very busy. Keener and his wife Bonnie had three children at their home on Slater Mountain, but for many years brought in extra children that were abandoned or on the streets. “One time this boy came to our home and told me his mom had left them two weeks

before,” Keener said. When he went to the house Keener discovered there were three children, aged eight, seven and six, and a six-week old baby. “They didn’t have milk for the baby and they were recycling the diapers,” Keener said, adding he loaded the children up, took them home and they adopted them. “I’m still here to help anyone I can,” he smiled as he signed some cheques for the Friendship Society. “I’m one of the last founding members of this place and I’m here every day.” Zayonc’s daughter Judy Kunka described her father as a “suitcase farmer.”

Through all the years of living and working in Williams Lake, he continued to return to his farm in Northern Alberta. “He’d work, then go to Alberta to put the crops in, come back to Williams Lake to work, and then go to the farm to take the crops out,” Kunka said. The farm is still in the family, although these days it’s rented out. As they posed for a photograph and joked about breaking the camera, Keener paused to asked what laughter creates? “Healing,” he answered. “When you can laugh at your own mistakes it can heal you.”

For thine is the kingdom, The power, and the glory, For ever and ever. Amen

BENEFITS OF FUNERAL PRE-PLANNING In recent years, more and more people have opted to make funeral or cremation arrangements prior to their death. These arrangements are commonly referred to as funeral pre-planning or prearranging. Many people find that funeral pre-planning gives them peace of mind knowing that their wishes will be respected and that the family has fewer burdens from making decisions about funeral arrangements during a time of grief. Others find that by pre-funding their funeral or cremation expenses, any additional life insurance they already have purchased may be used for its original purpose and not for funeral expenses. There are several benefits to funding your funeral prearrangement in advance. â&#x20AC;˘ The funeral services may be carried out at little or no additional cost to your family.

Funds may be immediately available to pay funeral costs, with no waiting period due to probate or other delays. May prevent other life insurance policies from being depleted at the time of a loved oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s death. Allows you to consider cost-effective options at a time when you are better prepared to make sound, fiscally responsible decisions. A pre-need life insurance policy is portable; therefore, if you move to another area, the insurance may be used to fund a new prearranged funeral contract with the funeral firm of your choice.

HOW TO DECIDE WHETHER TO CREMATE OR BURY? Nowadays, most people choose cremations over traditional burial because it helps save money. Direct cremation, in particular, is considered least expensive as it avoids costs associated with visitation and funeral service. Plus, it is a preferred choice in the present times as it saves land space. Nevertheless, it is a personal decision made by the individual or family members. Moreover, take your deceased loved oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wishes, feelings, and beliefs into consideration. Certain individuals, for example, have a fear of decaying or being buried alive. Cremation vs Burial Cremation reduces the body to cremated remains within a matter of hours whereas traditional burial follows the process of slow and natural decomposition. Some people respect the process of allowing the body to decompose naturally and consider cremation merely as hurrying the process while others believe that cremation denotes reverence. Direct cremations are more cost-effective than direct burials as they do not require embalming. Plus, you have the option of keeping the body in a alternative container instead of a casket. Cremation is a simpler process that also helps save ground space, but it is not so in case of burial. Nevertheless, both are regarded as safe ways of dealing with the dead body. As people nowadays live away from their family roots, cremation provides more flexibility in terms of memorialization as compared the method of burying in a cemetery or graveyard. The cremated remains can be stored in a cremation urn and displayed on a shelf or

mantle at home, scattered on land, scattered from the air by plane, floated on water, placed in a columbarium, buried in a burial plot (does not require a full-sized plot), or entombed in a crypt within a mausoleum. So, you can carry the cremated remains of the deceased with you if you are moving elsewhere but this not possible in case of burial. However, as cremation is an irreversible process, it is essential to make up your mind and be clear as to whether you want to go for a cremation or burial. Moreover, keep in mind that cremation is not a substitute for funeral as the final disposition of the remains is still required. Besides, you can still hold a funeral service before the cremation or a memorial service afterwards. When opting for cremation, the ashes of the loved one can later be scattered, buried, or entombed. If you have decided that you want to be cremated after your death, you can place your request in writing and provide the copies of instruction to your relatives. Preplanning the cremation is also helpful for your loved ones as it is cost-effective and gives a peace of mind. www.cremation-resource.org

PLANNING AHEAD. . . PRE-FUNDING YOUR FINAL EXPENSES The loss of a loved one is a very emotional and difficult time in peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lives. There are numerous decisions that need to be made and many arrangements that need to be handled at a time when many are least able to deal with them or afford them. That is why, in recent years, thousands of families in British Columbia have opted to make funeral arrangements prior to their death, well in advance of need, in a nonstressful environment. They have found that funeral pre-planning has given them peace of mind knowing that their wishes will be respected and that their families will have fewer burdens during a time of grief. These families would say that funeral pre-planning is just as practical, just as important and just as simple as planning for a college education, a future wedding, a new home or even retirement.

Falcons win second straight zone championship Qualify for BC ‘AAA’ Soccer Championships The Lake City Falcons senior boys, for the second consecutive season, have qualified for the BC ‘AAA’ Soccer Championships. The Falcons cruised to a 5-1 victory in the North Central Zone (NCZ) final Oct. 25 in Quesnel over Fort St. John to earn the provincial berth. “The boys did well again this year representing their school and community,” said head coach Brian Hansen. During preseason games the Falcons went 5-0 with wins over Quesnel, 100 Mile House, Prince George and Kamloops. During the NCZ round robin Lake City defeated Quesnel and Dawson Creek, however, suffered their first loss of the season against an athletic and speedy Fort St. John squad, Hansen said. “In the elimination round we went to a more compact formation to reduce space and time on the ball,” he said. “It worked well against Quesnel in the first elimination game and we were able to move the ball quickly and effectively without giving

In the tournament final the Falcons had a chance for revenge and were again matched up with Fort St. John. “Given how the previous

game went we knew it would come down to work ethic and right from the opening whistle we were flying,” Hansen said. “They made sure they competed for every loose ball while moving the ball quickly and accurately. For the other team it must have felt like they were

playing up a hill.” The game tilted quickly in the Falcons’ favour scoring three goals in the opening 11 minutes. Lake City then went on to the 5-1 victory. The BC ‘AAA’ Soccer Championships are coming up Nov. 26-28 in Burnaby.

Lake City Falcons girls rugby players Taylor Sager (from left) and Emma Pfleiderer attempt to chase down Carleigh Walters as she jaunts into the end zone for a try during the school’s annual Ball Gown Game.

Ball Gown Game raises $1,600 Beauty and grace met physicality last Thursday when the Lake City Falcons girls rugby team hosted its annual Ball Gown Game. Decked out in dresses and gowns, fittingly on the eve of Halloween, players

took to the pitch to show their support and to raise funds for the Canadian Cancer Society. Individuals and businesses in the community had the opportunity to sponsor a player, helping raise $1,600 for the CCS.

The game featured players split onto Purple and Yellow squads, where Purple marched away with a 39-17 victory. Emma Feldinger led the way for team Purple with two tries and two conversions, with teammate

Emma Pfleiderer also scoring twice. Dana Rook, Jordyn Grey and Madi Blusson each scored once. For team Yellow Carleigh Walters ran for two tries, while Laura Pfleiderer scored once and added a conversion.

Williams Lake It’s Financial Literacy Month! This is why… · Financial vulnerability (having low, no or negative net worth) has reached record levels in Canada:

· One in six Canadian households have zero or negative net worth · Almost one in four households have no financial assets · Canadian household debt is the highest in the G7 at 164% of annual income · Household savings are at an historic low of 3.3% of annual income. Financial vulnerability affects Canadians at all income levels, but those living in poverty most of all, as many have no savings to fall back on in emergencies and no ability to cut back on expenditures to meet their basic needs. Many are also burdened by debts that make it increasingly difficult to cope. Source: www.prospercanada.org Need to know more?

IF THE SHOE FITS WEAR IT Always buy the right shoe for the right sport! Running shoes have more cushioning in the heel for the pound that occurs in running. Walking shoes are designed for optimal use during walking. Aerobic shoes work well for any kind of fitness class. Cross trainers are intended to meet the demands of many different activities but many fall short of meeting the needs of any sport. Although shoes don’t appear worn out, after around 500 miles they will need to be replaced. Most runners replace their shoes every six months. If you notice pain on both sides of the body this could be an indication that your shoes are done. Tips when purchasing shoes: •Try on shoes later in the day as your feet swell during the day. •Make sure to try on both shoes as most people have one foot bigger than the other. •Don’t buy shoes with the intention of breaking them in; shoes must feel great as soon as you try them on.

Obituaries

Roy William Grinder It is with heavy hearts that the family announces the passing of Roy William Grinder of Clinton, BC on October 28, 2015 at the age of 71 years. Roy will be lovingly remembered by his sons Roy and Dennis; step-daughter Linda Sue; brother Kenny; sister Bernice; numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, extended family and friends. Roy grew up working on the familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ranch in Big Bar and worked on many other cattle ranches throughout BC. He spent many years traveling the rodeo trail, logging and as a big game guide. Roy spent much of his time on horseback, in the mountains and down at the Fraser River fishing and panning for gold. He was always willing to lend a hand, share his knowledge or play a game of cards. He will always be remembered for his stories, sense of humour and his smile. A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, November 7, 2015 at 1:00 pm at the Clinton Rodeo Grounds. Donations can be made to the Roy Grinder Memorial Fund for rodeo sponsorships.
