Water Wheel 

May Get 

New Heme 

Quesnel's famed water 

wheel (the cornish pump) at 

the eastern end of the Fraser 

River Bridge may be moved 

to a new location. 

Alderman Gloria Lazzarin 

asked Council Tuesday if 

a spot nearer the Tourist 

Bureau would not be a better 

situation. 

Alderman Scott Laidlaw 

said that when the new bridge 

>^ was in, the wheel would have 

to be moved anyway . 

Mayor- Alex Fraser said 

it was actually up to the 

Federal Government to move 

it and they may not want to 

do so. He instructed Town 

Clerk E. A. Green to write 

to the Federal Government 

to find out the position.

Garbage Pick-Up Faces Change 

The Town's new garbage pickup 

service has already come 

under a brief volley of fire from 

some of the commercial establishments 

in Town. 

Mr. Bob Jackson, newlyinstalled 

manager of Super Valu, 

told Council Tuesday that the present 

arrangement of picking up 

the store's garbage three times a 

week was not sufficient, and he 

requested a once daily service. 

Mayor Alex Fraser said the 

Hospital had also requested a 

once daily service, and he understood 

that another supermarket, 

Overwaitea, wanted a Saturday 

collection. 

After discussion of the best 

ways of instituting a daily pickup, 

which would include Saturday, 

Alderman Scott Laidlaw 

rr*v.^ m t_ . .._ 

said, "It is quite obvious that 

we have got to pick up on Saturday 

sometime, and I think we

should assure Mr. Jackson that 

it will be done." 

Mr. Jackson also pointed out 

the apparent discrepancy in pickup 

rates. 

"We are now paying $30 for a 

three times a week pick-up, but 

the bylaw quotes $60 for a twice 

a day pick-up. We don't need 

a twice daily pick-up so what 

rate would you charge for once 

a day." 

Mayor Fraser, in agreeing with 

a motion from Alderman Laidlaw 

that the works crew should 

pick up garbage from the commercial 

area when instructed, 

said Council should look at the 

matter and also make some attempt 

to "steady up the rates 

schedule."

Stage Coach Arrives 

In Quesnel Today 

The Centennial stage coach 

arrives In Quesnel this afternoon 

with its cargo of mail and passengers, 

at the start of its 540 mile 

journey from Barkerville toViclorla. 

Mr. Laurie Wallace, provincial 

secretary, flew to Barkerville 

from Victoria Monday to get the 

historic trip officially underway. 

{Mr. Wallace delivered mail and 

other valuable cargo to the 

carrier. 

Coach and passengers were 

given a rousing send off from 

Wells at 7:00 a.m. Tuesday. It 

stopped in Stanley overnight and 

arrived in Cottonwood Wednesday 

evening. It is expected in town 

sometime this afternoon and will 

remain at Le Bourdais Park until 

Sunday. 

The British Columbia stagecoach 

is an authentic replica of 

an express coach of 100 years 

ago, when the crown colonies 

on Vancouver Island and the 

mainland were united. It was 

built by Bill Garrow of 100 Mile 

House. His father, Frank, an 

old-time carriage maker, designed 

and made the upholstery. 

The stagecoach is patterned 

after an actual coach which operated 

out of Barkerville in the 

glamorous gold rush days. It 

has iron leaf springs, is rustred 

with tulip-yellow trim and 

black upholstery. 

The coach will be driven by 

its builder and Art Perry, also 

EXPANDING LIBRARY 

SEEKS TOWN HELP 

Quesnel Municipal Library has 

applied to Council for a second 

grant of $2,000, promised at the 

last Library Board meeting in 

February. 

A first grant of $2,000 was 

given by the Town to the Library 

in February. 

During the period February 

to June new books to the value 

of $2134.99 were purchased. 

A memorandum from the Library 

to Council said that it is 

hoped that space now occupied by 

the Civil Defence will be made 

available this Fall to help ease 

the pressure on space as a result 

of a growing use of the reference 

book section which cannot 

be removed from the Library,

TOWN BUILDING PERMITS 

PLUMMET OVER $400,d00 

IN YEAR'S FIRST HALF 

The tight money situation is 

really being felt in local building 

activity, latest figures on 

building permits Issued during 

June and the first half of the 

year, show. 

The statistics, compiled by 

Building Inspector Harold Bond, 

reveal that in the first six months 

of 1966 the value of building 

permits issued by the Town 

slumped by $453,473. 

In the current January-June 

period total value of permits issued 

amounted to $488,497 compared 

with $941,970 in the same 

period of 1965. 

Last month was a particularly 

TOURISTS SUPPORT LACKING 

Twice as many tourists 

are calling at the Tourist 

[Bureau in Le Bourdais park 

this year than in 1965, latest 

figures from the Bureau 

shows. 

During June some 1,609 

visitors reported to the Bureau 

compared with only 820 in 

June last Year. 

Meanwhile tourist activities 

in the Cariboo came under 

discussion at Council Tuesday, 

following receipt of a letter 

from Minister of Recreation 

and Conservation Kenneth 

Kiernan that full use of the 

regional matching grant to 

publicize B.C. tourist activities 

were not being met. 

Mayor Alex Fraser said 

from the Cariboo Tourist 

Association's point of view the 

CTA was not being given full 

support from business communities 

in the area. 

He said that support of 

the CTA was bad at the North 

End of the Cariboo "And I 

refer to Quesnel, which is 

dragging its feet," he said. 

"Support for the CTA is better 

at Clinton than in Quesnel," 

he pointed out. 

Mayor Fraser said it was 

not necessarily the community's 

fault. " Perhaps they 

have not been asked to help 

in the right way," he said. 

His Worship finally said 

it was shameful that govern 1 

ment money for tourism was 

going unspent and he proposed 

calling a meeting of 

town's business people, probably 

the last week in July, 

to see what support could be 

given to the CTA.

The agreement between the 

School Board and the United 

Brotherhood of Carpenters and

and six-acre plots In the rural 

districts for the purpose of purchasing 

same for future school 

sites. 

Future use of the now-empty 

high school dormitory was ex 

I IIII mil 

amined but, as there are Insufficient 

students available, no Immediate 

plans for Its occupancy 

were decided. 

Details of the discussion for 

a Regional College at the recent 

NIB Convention were forwarded, 

and the need for cooperation 

between the school districts 

emphasized. 

One acre of crown land in Australian 

which had been reserved 

for a school building site was relinquished 

bytheboardtothe B.C. 

Telephone Company who plan to 

use It for a mobile exchange 

service. 

Preliminary plans for future

A suggestion was noted from 

Mr. McKlnnon that the board publish

in curriculums, and building developments. 

Although members 

agreed that the public is now more 

concerned with the education system, 

nothing was decided.

only $62,020 — or about six 

single family dwellings —against 

$327,700 for June 1965. This

Who Was 

The Greatest 

Who was the greatest B.C. 

Logger of them all? 

A search for the Paul Bunyan 

of the province has been launched 

by the Pacific National Exhibition 

in connection with the Festival 

of Logging, a feature of the 

1966 PNE from August 20th to 

September 5th. 

The rules are simple. Entries 

must deal with real loggers who 

worked in the B.C. woods at any 

time in the past or present. Candidates 

must be loggers who were 

capable as well as colorful. 

The committee has already received 

the names of some candidates. 

They include George 

Moore, the Shakespeare-spouting 

logger who saw the image of 

Falstaff in the face of a leering 

hooktender, or that of Cassius in 

the approach on a over-anxious 

machinery salesman. 

There was Sid Smith, who helped 

build one of the greatest 

timber empires on the coast 

for Bloedel Stewart and Welch 

Ltd., which later became a corporate 

parent of today's giant 

MacMillan Bloedel Ltd. And there 

was Eustace Smith, the famous 

timber cruiser who left his mark 

all along the coast. 

Information on these or other 

candidates can be sent in care of 

the Cariboo Observer or directly 

to P,G. Martin, Festival of Logging,

For Coast Meet 

Jehovah's Witnesses have announced 

that a local circuit minister 

Mr. Robert E. Kowalyk will 

be a speaker on their conference 

program scheduled for Vancouver's 

Empire Stadium, August 3-7. 

Concerning his assignment Mr. 

Kowalyk said, "Jehovah's Witnesses 

make the claim that their 

jconvention programs give practical 

scriptural solutions to problems 

facing the world today. My 

topic "The Surpassing Way of 

Love" is in keeping with this 

claim. Time for delivery is 

scheduled for 7:30 p.m., August 

3." 

The Watch Tower Society has 

arranged for a series of conventions 

throughout North and South 

America for 1966 and 1967 with 

principal speakers drawn from 

Witness headquarters in Brooklyn, 

New York and branch offices 

in various lands. 

The Vancouver convention is 

expected to have a peak attendance 

of 30,000 for the final day, 

to hear the main discourse "What 

Has God's Kingdom Been Doing 

Since 1914?", to be delivered by 

the president of the Watch Tower 

Society, N.H. Knorr. 

Health Tips 

A competent, up-to-date doctor 

in Canada today spends from the 

day he begins university to the 

day he retires continuing his 

training and education, the Canadian 

Medical Association says. 

Every doctor has be a life-long 

student. 

Training for medicine starts 

with three or four years of premedical 

subjects, with emphasis 

on science, and also a wide 

range of other subjects of the 

student's own choice. Four years 

as a medical student follow, during 

which are taught the wonders 

of the human body, how to preserve 

it in good health, what ills 

afflict it, how to relieve these 

Ills, and most Important, how to 

prevent them. 

After graduation, education of 

the doctor continues on the average 

for approximately 40 years. 

First there is a year as a hospital 

intern. After internship, some 

enter a career devoted to family 

practice while others spend four 

more years of hospital training 

for specialty practice. And others 

enter public health, teaching, research 

and administration or 

some other branch of medicine. 

Whatever path the doctor 

chooses, says the C.M.A., in 

this era of explosive scientific 

advance, he must spend his entire 

active professional life as a student, 

keeping abreast of new developments.

The cars are In riotous competition 

in a race from New York 

to Paris, and from the first explosive 

blastoff to the roaring 

finish at the Eiffel Tower, they 

are machines of character and 

distinction. 

Since Tony Is the hero and Jack

Tony's Leslie Special, for instance.

Lemmon's Hannibal Straight 

Eight. It is, indeed, a black monster 

right out of an Indianapolis 

nightmare. It is equipped with a 

hidden cannon which pops out to 

blast enemies; it carries a fiery 

nose cone (for burning through 

icebergs or roasting wienies), 

and a multi-colored smoke 

screen device. Its body is perched 

on a hydraulic elevator that 

will lift it eight feet offthe ground. 

It also has an umbrella top and six 

chain-driven wheels. 

As the black-hearted villain in 

"The Great Race," Lemmon puts 

his car to every nefarious use as 

a crisis arises. He fires his cannon 

at the hero's gasoline drums, 

he uses the smoke screen to abduct 

Miss Wood from the hero's 

side, and he aims the red-hot 

nose cone at almost anyone that 

gets in his way.

Ideas For Shower Gifts 

Bridal showers make for a 

busy season. And this means 

gifts a plenty, gifts that take 

very special thought. There are 

so many basic things essential 

to setting up a new household. 

Yet how much more fun it is to 

give shower gifts that are attractive 

to open and exciting to have. 

So why not combine the two and 

give gifts that are both practical 

and pretty? 

Fortunately, today's manufacturers 

are right there with a helping 

hand and almost everything 

that is needed In a home is available 

In a good-looking form. 

Take laundry equipment, for Instance. 

What could be more mundane? 

What could be more necessary 

for the new homemaker? 

And what could be better looking 

than some of today's laundry 

aids? 

One gift that you might select 

Is a hamper in brilliant Italian 

or Mexican straw. For the bride 

who can't plan jon having a dryer 

right away you might just give 

a length of clothesline with an 

assortment of colourful plastic 

clothespins or a large plastic 

clothesbasket. An ironing board 

in brightly painted metal would 

surely be a successful choice 

You might also join forces with 

another shower guest and present 

the bride with one of the 

new good looking steam, dry 

and spray irons or give an assortment 

of ironing aids packed 

in a sturdy, colourful basket 

The basket itself can then be 

used again and again as a handy 

storage spot for everything needed 

at Ironing time. 

The basket might be filled with 

any number of things. A pretty 

'Th^pvertisemen^^ by the Liquor Control Board orT^heGovernment ot BHtisrCoiunibia" 

say for Cautling Pilsener SUdl 

A British Columbia favorite for more than Forty years. 

pastel ironing board cover would 

certainly be appreciated. To 

go with it you might add one of 

the new flower-bedecked ironing 

board dust covers. You might 

also include a press mit or a 

"ham". These come in both 

plaids and prints and they are 

wonderful to have on hand for 

pressing shaped garment areas. 

A press cloth is another essential. 

Heavy cheese cloth is an 

excellent press cloth and will be 

an inexpensive addition to the 

basket. And don't forget spray 

starch. This, too, comes in attractive 

containers. 

Another basic Ingredient for 

the homemaker's ironing set isa 

sprinkling can. Even these are 

available in "exotic" shapes and 

can be found in everything from 

glass to brass. For the traditional 

minded bride you might 

choose an antique,bottle and add 

a sprinkler cap, for the modern 

girl a brass spray can. Then as 

a final touch, pop in a long hand 

led brush or a sponge to use in 

catching flecks and lint while 

Ironing.

93rd. Birthday 

Celebrated 

At Kersley 

Flowers, birthday cards, a 

special cake, and a gathering of 

old friends and members of the 

family marked the 93rd birthday 

of Mrs. Helena Zschiedrlch of 

Kersley last Tuesday. 

Mrs. Zschiednich, a mother of 

five, grandmother of seven, great 

grandmother of 11, and great, 

great grandmother of one, has 

been a resident of Kersley foi 

58 years. 

She, her husband, and their 

two oldest children were all born 

in Germany but later travelled to 

the United States. There, two 

more sons were added to the 

family. 

In 1908 the Zschiedrlch family, 

after travelling by covered wagon 

from Ashcroft, arrived in 

Kersley where they farmed and 

did carpentry work. Here the 

couple had their youngest son, Ed, 

who now lives with his family on 

the farm. 

Although her husband, Paul, 

died in 1943, and a son, then 

living in the U.S. passed away 

in 1954, Mrs. Zschiedrlch continued 

farming. 

Her other sons, Willy and Hans, 

live with their families in Kersley 

and another son, Paul, presently 

lives in Washington. 

MRS. HELENA ZSCHIEDRICH, 

93, of Kersley. 

Starching Dark Cottons 

Dark cottons will retain a crisp, 

smart look and dark, clear colours 

if you follow three simple 

rules. Deparate from linty articles 

before laundering. Dip and 

squeeze garment in starch solution 

several times, then wring 

firmly. Iron dark fabrics on 

wrong side to avoid shine on the 

right side.

QUESNEL KINETTES celebrate in swinging style the 18th birthday of their club. The

WITH KATE ANDRADE 

After last weekend, I'm convinced tliat every Canadian 

woman should go on a camping trip at least once a year! 

And if you think I say that because it's an "enjoyable 

experience", you're wrong. 

Unfortunately, I'm not the nature lover or the hardy 

type who revels in "roughing it" in the great outdoors. But 

it's a wonderful lesson to those -- like me -- who take com 

mon luxuries and modern conveniences for granted. 

Believe me, after just three days of camping, even the most 

rustic indoor plumbing, lukewarm water, the funniest shaped 

bathtub, or the saggiest bed looks out of this world. 

Doctors say the human body is marvellous at adapting it 

self to different living conditions. Well, mine didn't adapt ~ 

It only rel)elled. 

For some reason, tlie experience of sleeping on a hard, 

cold sleeping bag in a chilly tent filled with mosquitoes 

didn't nil me with blissful joy. 

And oddly enough, the opportunity to brush my teeth, 

wash my face, or do the dishes in a cold river didn't 

excite me one bit. 

Call me a softie, an oddball, a coward, or a city girl, but 

I won't change my mind. I just prefer snuggling up to warm 

blankets, turning a tap for hot water, using indoor plumbing, 

and having a closet full of clean clothes, that's all. 

I'm not discouraging or criticizing those who like camp 

ing — far from it. Rather, I admire their makeup and ability 

to make the most of it. 

But from now on, this gal will let the others do the pioneer 

ing while she enjoys the ordinary, dull, lifeless existence of 

appreciating civilization.

Personal observations gleaned from the recent Teen Town 

55-mile hike to Barkerville. 

1. The average woman is undoubtedly more money minded 

than a man. While selling booklets of poetry it was usually the 

woman who sweetly refused whereas the man seldom said 

no. I wonder if most men are really poets at heart, or if the 

women are just more practical??? 

2. Boys will always l)e boys where girls are concerned. . . 

Although our fathers and grandfathers like to think of them 

selves as dashing debonalre Don Juans in their day, they 

would be surprised at the stiff competition offered by some 

of their teenage sons and grandsons. The trip was not without 

some humorous and inter osting examples of the way in which 

the modern male continues to pursue his hobby -- girls. 

3. Some person will make a million when he invents a port 

able electric blanket made especially for camping trips. 

Besides that, hundi'eds of cold-blooded females (like me) will 

adore him.

Fashions, as with most other things in life, usually go in 

cycles. And so it is witli batliing suits. . . . 

For the many "modern" swimmers who aren't aware of 

the fascinating history behind their swim wear, a group of 

researchers recently discovered some revealing facts about 

iMithing suits. 

—The bikini isn't as modern as most people think. Wall 

frescoes in the ruins of Pompeii, dating back to 79 A.D.,- 

show a bathing beauty in an abbreviated two piece swimming 

costume. 

--People of the Middle Ages didn't swim and rarely bathed, 

because they feared it would help to spread the Plague. In 

stead, they used perfumes to keep themselves "sweet." 

--People of the early 1800's regarded a dip in the ocean as a 

health measure. The ladies of that time dove into the 

surf wearing long flannel cloaks which reached to their 

heels. 

—In the mid-19th century, men in striped woollen trou 

sers, reaching to mid-calf (can't you just imagine your 

father?) ogled the bathing beauties who were dressed in about 

30 pounds of blouse, skirt, pantaloons, and stockings. 

--In 1920, beach regulations barred suits -- men's or 

women's — which came lower on the chest than a line with 

the armpits or more than four inches above the knees. Police 

sometimes patrolled the beaches carrying yardsticks. 

--Bikinis were "discovered" in the 1940's, as was the use 

of a diatomite filter to remove unwanted organisms from 

water. 

—And then, of course, in the early 1960's, along came the 

toplesses, which would complete the cycle started by Adam 

and Eve. 

I believe we call it, "'
