1 6 - THURSDAY. NOVEMBER 24. 1966 ~ THE QUESNEL CARIBOO OBSERVER VOLUNTEER QUESNEL LADIES work behind the scenes on Thurs day afternoons at Quesnel's Municipal Library. Left to right WITH SUZETTE MISS CANADA PAGEANT OF 1967 The title of Miss Canada, 1967, was won by 19-year-old Barbara Kelly of Vancouver. Barbara was born in Moncton, Ontario, and moved to Vancouver after her father passed away. She was the only child. Miss Canada previously won the Miss Vancouver competition, and was chosen from a field of 29 regional beauty queens. Judging was on the basis of beauty, personality and talent. Her family says she is "a gay girl, who among other talents, plays the piano; both classical and modern." The five-foot, six-inch brunette has been working at B.C. Telephone since her graduation. She was saving her money to go to university, to take a Bachelor ofCommerce Degree in Business Administration. I Now being Miss Canada Barbara intends to spend a year, I living up to her title, then take six months off for travel, and I get down to earth:again. I She still plans her college education and it will be much I easier now, for among her prizes were two cars, a $5,000 I cash'award, and a $1,000 scholarship. I BACKGROUND I It was the stated objective of Miss Canada Pageant to I find a girl who will be truly representative of her country, I and a search was made in local areas from Vancouver Is- I land to Newfoundland. I MISS CANADA PAGEANT IS BIG BUSINESS I In less than four years Miss Canada Pageant has grown I from a small struggling enterprise to a nationally recognized j annual event. The fully sponsored Miss Canada Pageant I TV spectacular attracted an audience of over two and a half I million this month. I It involved uncounted people in communities from Van- I couver Island to Newfoundland, and generated a flow of thou- I sands of dollars in local business and on the national market. A Woman Invades World of Man A profession, long regarded as man's prerogative, has at last been invaded by a woman. It is to the highly regarded position of bank manager, and breaking the cycle of tradition is Miss Margaret-Rowe of Trail who has been appointed manager of the East Trail branch of the Bank of Montreal. Mr. A. John Ellis, general manager for British Columbia, said that Miss Rowe's new appointmont reflects the increasingly-important role of women in the bank's day-to-day operations. A number of B of M women in B.C. have previously advanced to accountant level and other posts of responsibility, but Miss Rowe is the first to assume full management of a branch in this province. Until gazettingof her appointment, Miss Rowe was accoun- Lon Codfrey I Vote LIBERAL because: with the new generation of young active minds SKIPP is the man to give strong opposition and help to form the next government. tant-in-charge of the East Trail sub-agency, which operated under direction of the manager of the main Trail branch. Now, the East Trail office becomes a full-service branch and Miss Rowe is entirely responsible for its operation. Born at Drumheller, Alta,, she was educated at Rossland and Trail, where she began her banking career. She has also served attheCastlegar andNelson offices. In 19137, she became officer-in-charge of East Trail sub-agency and, in 1962, accountant-in-c h a r g e of the same office. Miss Rowe's interests outside the bank include the Canadian National Institute for the Blind, the Canadian Mental Health Association, the local merchants' association, skiing, square-dancing and Sunday school. An Act to declare the Mcintosh the National Fruit of Canada, received first reading this year in the House of Commons, Ottawa. TED'S SHOE RENEW TED LANDRUD Opp. Cariboo Camp Siorc WEST QUESNEL Mrs. G. Thomas, Mrs. J. NelU, Mrs. F. Allison, Mrs. D. Lawrle, Mrs. J. Griffin, and Mrs. A. Martin. Thursday Afternoon At the Library By SUZETTE Over 10,000 books rest on the shelves of Quesnel's Municipal Library, located In the Municipal Building. And who looks after this wealth of Information? Seventeen progressively minded volunteer ladles! Not only do these ladies work from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. Monday afternoons, 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays but they also work behind the scenes, on Thursday afternoons. Since March 1956, when the new location for the library was selected, an estimated 9,500 books have been properly prepared for the use of Quesnel readers by volunteers who were willing to spend some of their time, getting no salaries In return. The library opened with about 500 books, which ere previously kept by Mrs. F. Allison awaiting proper facilities. Quesnel Municipal Library Board, sets the policies of the library. It is made up of Mayor Alex Fraser, the Honorary Chairman, Mrs. F. Allison, Chairman, Mrs. J. NelU, Vlce- Chairman, Mrs. G. Thomas, Treasurer, Mrs. J. Griffin,Secretary. Other members are Mrs. T. Peebles and Miss E. MitcheU. The Board plans for the future of the library and supervises its affairs. It has four to five meetings a year, with the annual meeting in February. The Town Council appoints the library board, suggested by the library staff. Ladies that work on Monday afternoon are Mrs. J. Neill, Mrs. A. Hodges, and Mrs. N. Garrison. Wednesday night, Mrs, G. Lund, Mrs. A. Barlow, Mrs. G. Wolpert, and Mrs. N. Mc Leod. Thursday night. Miss E.MitcheU, Mrs. L. Kelly Miss K. Colp, and Mrs. L. Ballinger. Friday night, Mrs. G. Thomas, Mrs. T, Peebles, Mrs. N. Garrison, and Mrs. A. Smith. Mrs. A. Smith. The Thursday afternoon workers are Mrs. F. Allison, Mrs. J. NelU, Mrs. G. Thomas, Mrs. D. Laurie, Mrs. H, Goodman, Mrs. A. Martin and Mrs. J. Griffin. Thursday afternoon workers take care of the books before they are placed on the shelves. Editions that are ordered, are selected by Mrs. Allison, Chairman of the Library Board. She orders the books directly from publishers, after researching their conienis in catalogs, and book reviews. When the books arrive in Quesnel, work begins on Thursday afternoons. Mrs. J. Neill unpacks and prices the books. She aLso has to* classify them. This Is done by foUowing the Dewey Decimal system. When classification Is done, the books are ready for their cataloging cards. Index cards, are typed up by Mrs. G. Thomas and Mrs. J. Griffin. Information on each Individual book Is arranged first on a title card, then a subject card, then an author card. Sometimes there are more than three cards for a book. For example; a book titled Canadian Entry by Christilot Hanson, is an autobiography of a girl who is a Canadian Entry at the Tokyo Olympics: This volume will have a title card reading Canadian Entry, followed by certain necessary Information on how to locate the book. His author card will read, Hanson, Christilot. The subject card willbe headed under two divisions, or two cards, - 1. Autobiography, 2. Horsemanship. Books are also classified with different colored book cards, for checking out purposes. White signified adult fiction, orange, non fiction, blue, teenage stories, and yellow, junior books. Once all the cards have been made up, the books and cards are handed over to Mrs. F. Allison, who stamps the purple Quesnel Municipal Stamp on the editions. The stamping usually appears on pages 25, 125, 225 and so on. Then pockets are glued on every book, and the date stamp cards are placed In them. The catalogue cards are then looked after by Mrs. D. Lawrle, who files them in alphabetical order, following the heading is on the top. Mrs. G. Thomas places the suitable Dewey Decimal number on the spine of each book cover, and the books are ready to be filed, A list is made of all the new books placed on the s h e 1 v e s, which hangs on the wall, where the public can see the newest additions. Along with book preparation, the ladies do their dusting and examine and repair damaged books. ELECTORS OF THE CARIBOO BY-ELECTION: Only ONE candidate .can win the by-election, so give yourself five intelligent minutes to consider the contest. If Mr. Bonner gets more than 35/40% of the votes he will probably win. I assume that 60/G5% of the electors want Mr. Bonnei- defeated. PROBABLE RESULT OF THE POLL: Diagram A: Before R. Mullins was nominated 40% I 20% R. Bonnerj L. Skipp 20% H. Dent 10% ISwinging G. Goeujonl 10% Conclusion: Mr. Bonner will be elected without any difficulty. Therefore an INDEPENDENT was nominated to UNITE ALL opponents of Mr. Bonner, and defeat him. Diagram B: .Vfter R. Mullins, Independent, was nominated. 40% R. Bonner 60% Possible Vote for R. Mullins, Independent Conclusion: If you want Mr. Bonner to win:a) Vote for him directly, or b) indirectly, by voting on Party lines, and' thus splitting the opposition vote. There is, therefore, ONE - and only one - sure way to defeat R. Bonner, that is to vote for R. Mullins, your INDEPENDENT candidate.
