Mystery ladies

Can you identify the ladies in these photographs at left? The staff and volunteers at the Salmon Arm Museum at R.J. Haney Heritage Village have identified the men, Ian Wickett and Les Ellenor. The occasion is the Canada Day Children Festival at Fletcher Park, around 1994.

The photographer is Don Grabewecki.

If you are able to indentify either of these women, please contact the museum at 250-8325289 or archives@salmonarmmuseum.org.

is pleased to introduce two guest speakers for our next series of information workshops, Patrick Wilson and Rob Hicks. Both gentlemen are local agents for World Financial Group, based in Kelowna and will speak on 3 topics:

Readers come to the rescue

Deborah Chapman of the Salmon Arm Museum had two hits on the unidentified log building photo (right) that we published in last week’s issue of the Lakeshore News. She knew the photographer was Frank Duncan, who was in the area between 1913 and 1915, but that was all.

Dodie Anderson identified the image as St. Mary’s Anglican Church in Sorrento. She has a similar photo taken from another angle.

Mike Johnstone also confirmed Dodie’s story.

Deborah went looking for supporting documentation: the church website, the Trapper’s Landing News (2012) articles and the

• April 7th, 4:30-5:30pm – “How Money Works” • April 14th, 4:30-5:30pm – “Business Products and Strategies for Building Value in Your Business”

Shuswap Chronicles (1998). In the process she learned more about the church.

Frank Duncan’s photograph shows that the volunteers used unpeeled logs when they built the church, a fact documented in the histories of the building. In 1938 dry rot was discovered. According to Mike Johnstone’s article in Shuswap Chronicles, a rebuilding of the church followed. It was redesigned by Kamloops architect, Ian Robertson Morrison, whose plans called for an exterior finish of white stucco and exposed timbers. The St. Mary’s church was to sport a “new” Tudor look.

• April 30th, 4:30-5:30pm – “The Importance of Personal Development and Mental Toughness” Each presentation will take place at Community Futures Shuswap office, 101-160 Harbourfront Drive NE.

familychiropractic COURTESY OF HARBOURFRONT FAMILY CHIROPRACTIC

by Dr. Warren Gage

Chiropractic & colic

An all-too-common and frustrating challenge that new parents face is when their newborn is troubled with colic. Colic is generally diagnosed when there is uncontrollable crying in babies, especially through 0-3 months of age, lasting more than three hours a day, for three days a week, and lasting three weeks or longer.

Safe to say all of those “threes” can quickly add up to an unhappy household full of stress and anxiety on parents and baby. However, the good news is that chiropractic adjustments can help! Over the two decades of my career I have found gentle chiropractic adjustments are a safe and effective way to help resolve discomfort and colic in babies.

In addition to my personal success treating this condition, a randomized controlled clinical trial published in the Journal of Manipulative and Physiologic Therapeutics compared chiropractic care to traditional drug treatment in two groups of colicky infants. The results showed the group of babies receiving chiropractic care improved more than the drug group. In fact, in days 4-7 of the study the chiropractic group showed a reduction of 2.4 hours of crying with only a reduction of 1 hour in the drug group. In days 8-11 the hours of crying were reduced by 2.7 hours in the chiropractic group and again 1 hour in the drug group.

Colic can be a significant challenge to families as it greatly increases stress levels through a time in a baby’s life that should be calm, loving and nurturing. Considering the fact that much of a person’s nervous system development in relation to bonding, attachment, and safety forms in the first months of life, colic can severely disrupt the ability for parents and babies to bond. When a baby is crying uncontrollably for extended periods, there has to be a cause. Chiropractic looks to the spine and nervous system for subluxation (spinal misalignment/nervous system interference resulting from birth trauma) that can be the cause of this challenge.

If you have an infant that needs relief, chiropractic adjustments can help. Dr. Warren Gage is a family wellness chiropractor with a special interest in pediatrics and can be reached at Harbourfront Family Chiropractic at (250) 8030224.

Giving five year’s worth of hair

Salmon Arm resident Amanda Sayers gets her hair cut by Stacey Blackburn of the Chopping Crew Hair Co. Amanda grew her hair for a long time without dyes or chemicals in order to be able to donate it to BC Children’s Hospital.

Amanda says, “I started growing my hair out almost eight years ago, ever since my daughter had to go to

BC Children’s Hospital, because there I met so many sick kids and wanted to do something nice. The first time I tried donating, five years ago, I was told I couldn’t because it wasn’t virgin hair. So, I started growing it out and five years later, I finally had virgin hair. I am so excited to send it away.” Howard Vangool photo

Cookies now available

By Jenn Pletsch The cookies are here, the cookies are here!

Girl Guides aged 5–18 are excited that a new shipment of cookies has arrived! The girls understand that all of the money raised by selling Girl Guide cookies helps support everything they do.

Girl Guides is a volunteer-run organization. That means that all of the unit leaders and administrators are volunteers who give thousands of hours to help build the next generation of well-rounded, contributing members of their community.

Every year, the approximately 93,000 members of Girls Guides of Canada sell roughly 5.5 million boxes of cookies. The cookies are made by Dare, a Canadian company, in a peanut-free environment. A big question is always, “How much of the money stays with Girl Guides?” Girl Guides buys a case of 12 boxes of cookies for $18, and sells it for $60 – the remaining $42

per case stays in Guiding to support their program. The cookies are sold at $5 a box.

Money raised is used for running programs: buying badges, program and craft supplies, tents, camp food and international travel. This helps to keep all events and camps affordable for the girls.

In the Shuswap, girls of all ages are working hard to sell cookies for many upcoming events.

Salmon Arm Brownies are attending a weeklong camp called More Seaside Fun over on the Sunshine Coast. The Enderby Brownies will be going to a big area camp. The Sorrento Guides are going to Vancouver to take part in the Hosteling International Program, and a group of Pathfinders and Rangers are travelling to England to attend a large international camp.

As you can see, all of the different age-groups have some very exciting things on the horizon – making memories of a lifetime.

So go on... buy a yummy treat and support a great cause at the same time!

Lemongrass

Lemongrass, or Cymbopogon citratus, is a member of the grass family and native to Southeast Asia. Common names include lemongrass, barbed wire grass, citronella grass or fever grass, amongst others. It is commonly used in teas, soups, curries, soap, perfumes, and as a medical herb. Citronella oil is used commonly in mosquito repellent products.

Lemongrass tea is made by using two to three chopped stalks steeped in a pot of nearly boiling water. This tea is principally taken as a remedy for digestive problems, diarrhea and stomachache. It relaxes the muscles of the stomach and gut and relieves cramping pains and flatulence problems. It also eases menstrual cramps. It has been linked to increasing the body’s ability to repair damaged connective tissue such as cartilage, ligaments and tendons, and is thus recommended for these types of injuries. Its calming effect helps to reduce stress and it promotes a good night’s sleep. This herb is said to be helpful in alleviating anxiety and depressive symptoms.

It helps to strengthen the nervous system and may thus be useful for conditions such as Parkinson’s disease.

It has antioxidants like beta-carotene that scientists believe can help prevent cancer. A small study done at the University of Wisconsin revealed that some people taking prepared lemongrass capsules, about 140 mg daily for three months, noticed a reduction in cholesterol levels and that their cholesterol levels returned to their original high levels when they stopped taking the preparation. This indicates that lemongrass may help reduce cholesterol in certain individuals. However, more research is needed.

Lemongrass oil has anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties. A massage with this oil soothes aching muscles.

However, it may produce allergic reactions in some people and may also interact with certain medications, so it is best taken after talking to a health care practitioner.

11th ALL-INDIAN HOCKEY TOURNAMENT

By Sally Scales, in 1972 It was by no means professional hockey but from the shouts and cheers from the spectators, it could have been the NHL. The scene was at the Salmon Arm Arena and the event was the 11th annual All-Indian Hockey Tournament on March 11 and 12, 1972. Eleven years ago, Charlie Williams, a player on an Indian hockey team in Salmon Arm, thought Indians should have a hockey tournament similar to the one the Kinsmen Club had at the time. He invited other teams to participate, and four teams took part that first year. The past two years, nine teams have participated, providing a challenge for organizers to have all the teams play off in two days.

The teams that participated this year were from Williams Lake, Westbank, Penticton, Fort St. James, as well as Gleneden Eagles from Salmon Arm, Chase Warriers, Quilchena Braves from Merritt and two teams from Vernon: Westside Totems and Head of the Lake Stampeders. All members of each hockey team must be Indian. The Fort St. James team, who drove 600 miles, had a white goalie, and after they played two games, he couldn’t prove he was an Indian, so a meeting was held and the man was not allowed to play. Fort St. James agreed to play an all-Indian team and put a defenseman in the goal, but they “played Indian” and pulled out of the tournament. The only white men allowed on the ice were referees, members of the Referees Association of Salmon Arm. For ten years Charlie Williams organized the entire tournament, with the able assistance of his wife. Charlie quipped, “Everyone thought it wouldn’t go over. Now they all want a share in it.” This year he was assisted by Maurice Jones, the recently-appointed recreation director for Salmon Arm. The tournament isn’t subsidized. Everyone pays his own expenses. Four more teams would have entered this year, but they couldn’t afford the expenses involved. To permit the tournament to be played without night games, the periods were shortened to 15 minutes of play with only short intermissions. The final game was played in regulation time.

The all-important final game between Williams Lake and Westside Totems of Vernon was swift and tense, and the fans followed each play with much interest and excitement.

Tempers flared often during the game but Indian brotherhood prevailed. It was the third game in a row for the Williams Lake team, but it came through with flying colours. Goalie Stan Stump was able to stop all but four of the many shotson-goal.

The team from Williams Lake and the Westside Totems tied for first place in the tournament so they shared the Montebello Hotel trophy and the $100 first prize and $75 second prize. Head of the Lake Stampeders of Vernon won the $50 third prize. Trophies were donated by the Salmon Arm Motor Hotel.

Another Duma rescue

Premier lunches at the Prestige

BC Premier Christy Clark stopped in Salmon Arm on Wednesday for a luncheon hosted by the Chamber of Commerce at the Prestige Harbourfront Resort. Chamber president Jim Kimmerly, left, asked her a few questions.

If you’ve read my articles over the last couple years, you’ll be all too familiar with Duma (pronounced Dooma) the Cat. You’ll know that despite being small in stature she is quite feisty; kind of like the Junior Bean Counter.

Anyway, periodically she gets herself into these predicaments where she is stuck on top of a roof or in a tree and usually old Dad has to rescue her. Well, it happened again.

With spring upon us, Duma is spending most of her day outside keeping the rodent population down. This is very pleasing to me except for the mouse body parts that are left on the doorstep or the driveway.

Despite all the running around she does all day, she usually likes to come in at night to rest in the comforts of the mudroom. So the other day it was surprising when she didn’t come in at night. We became even more concerned when she didn’t come in the next night too.

So I told the boys that we need to go looking for her. I’m usually the one that starts looking along the road and I usually send the boys to check the shed. I figure it is best that I be the one to find her if in fact she has been hit by a vehicle.

Thankfully, the boys found her and called me over to help. The good news was they found her, the bad news was she was up in the rafters and couldn’t get down. She must have snuck in the shed without the boys knowing when they went to grab something, and then got locked in.

This time I decided to send my oldest son up the ladder to fetch her. However, as in the past, she just ran away when he tried to grab her.

“We’re trying to rescue you. Stop running away!” the Junior Bean Counter yelled at her.

Eventually she’d get close but would then swat at him when he tried to grab her. So here she was scared and probably very hungry and yet she continued to bite the hand that feeds her.

The boys were now in a frenzy themselves which didn’t exactly help Duma to settle down.

“Fine! Let me give it a try,” I exclaimed.

It took a while, but eventually she got close enough where I was able to grab her. As I came down the ladder she gave me a sassy “Meow” as if to say “I’m hungry and why did it take you so long to rescue me?!”

I just shook my head put her down and watched her get snuggled by the boys as they said in unison, “Poor Duma! Are you okay?”

I was thinking to myself, “How many times does this have to happen, you crazy cat?” and “Why do you make it so difficult to get rescued?”

In the end, the boys were happy we rescued her, Duma was happy to eat again and despite a few scratches I was happy no one broke their neck trying to save the hungry cat. Mission accomplished.

New bill would help protect animals in distress

VICTORIA – The proposed Distressed Animals Act would help prevent animals from suffering or dying in vehicles without adequate ventilation, says New Democratic spokesperson on local government Selina Robinson.

“After a number of incidents of animals dying while left alone in hot vehicles, it is time to act,” said Robinson, noting the tragic 2014 case of the six dogs who died after being left in the back of pickup truck covered by a canopy for 40 minutes.

Robinson introduced the bill in the legislature on Thursday and was later

joined by advocates from the BC SPCA in support of the proposed changes.

“In 2013 the BC SPCA received 850 calls regarding animals left in hot cars and in 2014 they received well over 1,000 calls,” said Robinson. “The BC SPCA only has 26 special provincial constables working across the province, and must liaise with RCMP and municipal bylaw enforcement to respond to these urgent calls.

“The Distressed Animals Act would amend the Community Charter and the Vancouver Charter permitting bylaw enforcement to seize animals in distress where there is inadequate ventila-

tion in a vehicle and it amends the Motor Vehicle Act noting that a person commits an offense if they are transporting an animal without providing for adequate ventilation.”

Robinson noted that the act has wide support at the municipal level and called on the B.C. Liberal government to move forward with it.

“These necessary changes would permit first responders to take immediate action and ensure more awareness and compliance so that animals need not die a horrible death while the driver just runs ‘a few errands.’”

New Fitness Studio Opening Cardio Connection, Salmon Arm’s first cardio fitness studio, is opening next Tuesday, April 7th.

Owner Melissa Treleavan (left) says Cardio Connection’s focus is more than helping people reaching a fitness goal, it’s about allowing them to enjoy the journey.

“I have a vision – not just connecting people to their exercise but also to their community. This will be a place where people come to work out because of the social setting. This is the newest up and going thing, having smaller classes so there’s more focus on the person.”

Their mission, she says, “is creating a powerful and inspirational fitness experience as opposed to just a workout. A small intimate studio encourages sharing and interaction amongst participants. Everyone can interact to optimize fitness, personal growth and enjoyment.”

Along with Melissa, Kara Bland and Lisa Papworth will be teaching classes that include: Spin (stationary bike classes); Bootcamps; Insanity: HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training); and PiYo, a combination of pilates and yoga.

In June, Shaylyn DeRuiter and Marnie Mckenzie will also be leading some of these classes.

Despite the intimidating names, Melissa says these classes are for everyone, no matter what fitness level.

“The spin classes are no-impact. People who suffer from arthritis for instance, or someone who is a bit heavier can start on the bike using low tension. It’s purely up to you how hard you work.”

In June, Cardio Connection will also be adding The Barre Method with Kate Watson. This class is based on ballet bar exercises for strengthening, toning and definition.

The studio will work on a punch card system and there aren’t any monthly fees. They will be using a software called Mindbody Connect that makes it easy for people to reserve and pay for a spot in any class.

“You don’t pay when you don’t go,” says Melissa.

“People can download the app and reserve a spot using their cell phone.”

Cardio Connection is located in Harbourfront Fitness, on Marine Park Drive, but has an entrance around the back.

For more information visit www.cardioconnection.ca or visit them on Facebook or call 250-833-2717.

New Nature-Based Programs for Kids Environmental educator Sky Stevens (above) has some exciting upcoming programs that encourage kids to get their hands dirty.

“There is no greater way of getting to know nature than by handling it with bare hands,” says Sky. “Feathers, pine cones and leaves are wonderful treasures for a child to explore. Let kids get their hands dirty, dig in the garden with you or rake and jump in leaves.”

Her book, “Looking Close; Teaching Kids to Love the Earth,” was designed as a teaching tool for grade 1+2 curriculum for educators and parents who want to offer their kids an interactive, nature-based alternative to technology. She is using her curriculum as the base of programs designed to teach kids to love the earth.

“Nature can be explored anywhere. A local park, school yard or backyard provides all that is needed to introduce a child to the wonders of the natural world.

Grass, leaves, pine cones or dandelions are ideal places to start. Using ‘how’ or ‘what’ questions can encourage children to come up with their own ideas of what nature is about.”

Her upcoming programs include: New Stewards, for ages 3-6 years; 9:15–10:00 a.m.

Saturdays, April 18 to May 16 (5 weeks) April 18 – Ant Tracks April 25 – What’s the Buzz May 2 – ProConDee (Producers, consumers, decomposers) May 9 – Pinecone Parade May 16 – House Detectives Explorer Program, for ages 7-9 years; 10:30 a.m.-12 noon, Saturdays, April 18 to May 16 (5 weeks) April 18 – Forest Floor April 25 –The Buzz on Bugs May 2 – ProConDee (Producers, consumers, decomposers) May 9 – Trees and Seeds May 16 – House Detectives Program fees for both programs are: $10 per child and $5 per adult (all children must be accompanied by an adult). There is a discount for registering for all 5 weeks.

Letters to the Editor Bill C-51 under fire

Canada needs to strengthen its methods of investigating, arresting and prosecuting those that would harm Canada.

Canada is at war with Islamist terrorists and the sooner we provide the tools for CSIS and the RCMP to stop these fanatics before they cause even more harm, the better Canada will be for it. Why would we want to restrict those that protect all of us?

It has even been suggested the wording of the Canadian Charter of Rights & Freedoms Act needs to be re-examined and perhaps changed especially in the area where it speaks to the freedom to practice any religion regardless of the harm it causes to others. Perhaps this only becomes a serious problem when newly-arrived Canadians begin to practice their religion which some refer to as “a religion of peace?” Then we learn that those who defend this religion are

reluctant to speak against the terrorists who worship under the same book?

Canada needs to exercise more caution and introduce measures which allow Canada to protect herself and not throw the doors open in a willy-nilly fashion.

The menace we are faced with is Islamist terrorists and many of them are in Canada right now as we debate the need for Bill C-51.

Those that told us they were protecting Canadians, as they implemented the Charter of Rights & Freedoms Act, are now signing petitions and telling us we do not require better laws and measures to stop the terrorists.

In my opinion, we need more legislation that will protect Canada from terrorists and their fanatical beliefs!

B. Campbell, Sorrento

Abbott capable of job

George was our MLA for many years and he showed himself to be intelligent, cooperative, knowledgable and not deserving of the treatment he received at the hands of our government. I think it is generally agreed that the action was the work of our illustrious premier who is threatened by the man who showed that he is capable of establishing a level of sincerity and truth not present in the higher office. Promises made and not kept are not a signature theme of George Abbott as they are of our current Premier. It takes a special person to understand and work with our First Nation peoples, and I believe

George can achieve that goal. What can be achieved with the about face instituted by the cabinet, only they know, but it does nothing to allay our fears of other such actions taken in the future. One promise made and not kept was the so-called “Family Day” which has turned out to be only a political scheme to garner votes. I have seen no evidence of this promise by Madam Premier, only the reverse. Come clean, Premier, and stand behind your action with regard to George’s appointment.

World’s cultures honour Semiramis

Easter is upon us once again. Just what is Easter, anyway? Where did it come from? Do you know?

The answer is that it was a pre-Christian holiday celebrated in the old empires of Babylon, Assyria, Persia, Greece, and Rome. This day and its name honoured the return of Semiramis, the first queen of ancient Babylon, into her reincarnated form of the spring goddess.

Back in the 2200’s BC, Cush, eldest son of Ham, and grandson of Noah, founded the first city state, Babylon, and began urban civilization.

His wife, Semiramis, became the queen of Babylon. Their famous son, Nimrod, subsequently expanded the Babylonian empire, built Ninevah and the Asyrian Empire, and build the Tower of Babel.

This evil family became Earth’s Royal Family, and ruled most of mankind as divine tyrants.

Following the deaths of Cush and Nimrod (who was chopped to pieces by his uncle Shem), Semiramis and her new son Tammuz, took control of the empire.

Semiramis claimed that Nimrod had gone into the heavens and become the sun. He became our heavenly father, and so when the solar disk rises on Sun Day morning, people worship Nimrod

unknowingly. Semiramis also became a deity: our mother, Mother Earth, Gaia.

Semiramis created (along with husband and son) a religion and a priesthood, designed to worship her and her family.

Nearly all of the earth’s religions are descended from this narcissistic perverted cult, which is known as the Babylonian Mystery Religion.

This universal religion was, and is, filled with evil rites, idolatry, temple prostitution, sexual deviation, and human sacrifice.

This Babylonian queen of heaven, and mother of Earth, has been honored and worshipped under many different names in various cultures and languages, such as Diana, Venus, Aphrodite, Athena, Astarte, Lybele, Rhea, etc. Easter is simply the English spelling of the Assyrian (Teutonic) name Ishtar (both pronounced the same). Muslims worship the queen of heaven as their moon goddess.

Currently, fanatical Islamists are trying to conquer the Middle East under their banner of ‘Isis’ which is the Egyptian name of Semiramis. All of this world’s cultures blindly honour this woman and her sons; our culture does so on our special holidays.

In the March 27, 2015 Lakeshore News, Tobiah Riley, in his letter, states that Bill C-51 (if passed) will be reckless, dangerous and ineffective.

Mr. Riley goes on to tell us there hasn’t been such a reaction in a long time as he states “over 100,000 Canadians” have signed an online petition against Bill C-51.

Perhaps? Given the population of 35,000,000, not all that many?

He lists several outdated politicians, a sour grapes ex-Prime Minister, a former CSIS officer and a hundred academics as sources of discontent over this Bill.

He also quotes our MP Colin Mayes as having said, “It is our duty to defend Canada.” As the majority of Canadians support this statement, MP Colin Mayes is absolutely correct when he reminds us it is our duty to protect the greatest country in the world, Canada.

Wilson portrays vibrant harbour

Salmon Arm Art Gallery is pleased to present “By Land, Air and Sea,” an exhibition of paintings

by Vancouver artist Jeff Wilson.

The opening reception is on Friday, April 3 at 7:00 p.m., with live music and refreshments. The exhibition runs April 4 to 25, and is sponsored by the Shuswap Film Society.

The work in this exhibition features the busy port activity of Canada’s west coast. The movement and perspective of the heavy machinery blends, through vibrant colour. with the spectacular BC landscape. From the iconic bright yellow Flying Beaver to the reassuring blue of the hardy tugboat,

Henri Henri

Henri (Victor Andres Turgeon-Trelles), a last remaining orphan, works by changing light bulbs for the sisters who raised him. But when the sisters suddenly have to leave, Henri, who doesn’t even know his own last name and has never left the orphanage in which he grew up, must figure out how to live by himself within the city.

Through coincidence, faith, and a colourful imagination, Henri finds a job in a lighting shop and claims to “lighten up people’s lives.” With eyes like a child, Henri lives his life very much

Jeff’s use of light and texture is a bold recognition of the vibrancy of the harbour. Ten large-scale paintings will be featured in this exhibition.

While in the BC interior, Jeff will be offering demos at Opus Kelowna on Saturday, April 4. Check the Opus website for more details.

Salmon Arm Art Gallery is located at 70 Hudson Avenue NE Salmon Arm. Gallery hours are Tuesday to Saturday, 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

LNG

Proponents of new liquid natural gas (LNG) development in British Columbia asked for the Accelerated Capital Cost Allowance to be applied to their capital investment in the plants that take natural gas off the pipeline and cool and compress it to liquid for transportation to offshore markets. The price of natural gas has dropped substantially and our government has responded by extending the ACCA to Canada’s LNG sector to help its growth in Canada in the same manner that the sector has been supported and developed in the USA and Australia.

This type of support for investors in our economy is wise and supports job creation. One LNG proponent has stated that during the construction of their pipeline and plant they will employ 4,500 Canadians and once it is operational will provide billions of dollars in taxes to all three levels of government.

Our government knows that providing an investment climate that attracts investment in our economy will create jobs, growth and prosperity for all Canadians which is why we continue to work with the Province of British Columbia to grow an LNG sector that is safe, sustainable and prosperous.

ing at Revelstoke Mountain Resort. With more to be announced, the 2015 Axis Mundi Harvest line-up already includes artists like breakout electronic funk duo The Floozies, Juno Award winner and enfant terrible of the fiddle, Ashley MacIsaac, world fusion artist Adham Shaikh, roots rock reggae artist and yogi, Buckman Coe, Toronto’s emerging avant-pop outfit Grounders, folk-surf pop group, Highs, and from Australia, Sticky Fingers, a melting pot of reggae, psych, pop and bourbon. Lecture series during the festival will include stories of adventure and survival from speakers like Jamie Andrew, the incredible Scottish mountaineer who, despite having no hands and feet, has made amazing ascents all over the world.

Add workshops, demonstrations, eco-adventure, gear swaps, art

When Suncor Inc. was developing the Athabaska Oil Sands in the 1980’s, it faced many challenges that made it a marginal business proposition. At that time, the federal government provided an Accelerated Capital Cost Allowance (ACCA) that allowed companies investing in the oil sands to writeoff their capital investment in infrastructure sooner which allowed them to retain earnings to re-invest in their development. This was not a subsidy or tax break but rather a temporary accounting practice that would defer taxes until after the company was profitable. Our government discontinued this incentive last year.

During the 2008 economic downturn, Canada’s manufacturing sector was challenged by a strong Canadian dollar and slow markets.

Our government extended the Accelerated Capital Cost Allowance to the Canada’s manufacturing sector to help them revitalize through investing in new equipment, making them more efficient and more competitive in the global market.

This was a great success as 40% of the manufacturing sector benefited from this support that has allowed it to expand and create high-value employment opportunities for Canadians.

Axis Mundi Music, with partners the City of Revelstoke, Revelstoke Mountain Resort, the Revelstoke Chamber of Commerce, the Revelstoke Arts Council and the Revelstoke Accommodation Association, will present two annual experiential ‘lifestyle’ festivals for people of all ages and levels of experience.

The inaugural Axis Mundi Harvest will take place September 18th–20th, 2015 followed by Axis Mundi Solstice (June 17th–19th, 2016). Each full weekend of events will offer attendees the opportunity to expand their interests and knowledge through the exploration of music, arts, adventure sport and environment, all programmed with a strong sense of community interaction and ecological sustainability.

Named for the mythical place where heaven meets earth and the four compass points meet, the biannual Axis Mundi Festival expresses a point of connection between culture, adventure, community and environment. Attendees can go to different events or focus on a specific discipline.

Outdoor physical challenges, adventure sport workshops, films and lectures, community initiatives and a music, film and arts festival are all part of the Axis Mundi experience, all set within one of the world’s most beautiful locales, Revelstoke.

Expect a wide range of music at this year’s Axis Mundi Harvest, performing throughout downtown Revelstoke, with headliners appear-

A14 Friday, April 3, 2015 Lakeshore News

A hint of misty moon cast shadows on yonder brae. Tall grasses lined the bank of the chalk stream. The old poacher crawled the last few feet to the edge.

With sack in hand he reached into the cool water under the bank, searching.

Ah, he felt the tail of a large salmon. He began to move his hand toward the belly of the fish, all the while wiggling his fingers and tickling. At the absolute precise moment, he grabbed the salmon, heaving it out onto the bushes behind.

He then quickly scrambled to bag the fish, and darted through the trees, and lush fields to his abode. The downside of this was that he would lose his head if he were caught by the laird or king.

He was the game keeper.

Pheasants and hares too, were poached by these men, who were entrusted to guard the king’s bounty.

They were paid very few shillings, and had families to feed.

Fish appear to relax when guddled.

Back in the 17th century it was an art, practiced throughout Scotland. The advent of the fly for fishing by the king and his princely followers was used during the day with much fanfare, servants, and the seemingly innocent gamekeeper.

Flys in those days were crude. Bright colours of fur and feather, blended and tied onto crude hooks. The passion of fly fishing the hundreds of of salmon streams and rivers was reserved. The combinations of patterns of flies were limited. The migration of people to the new world and British colonies like British Columbia brought the same zeal and passion to angle. As the rail and roads ascended into the interior, reports of wonderful rivers and lakes teeming with rainbow trout brought the pioneers to preempt the land and the avid fishers

Fly fishing

as well.

The Governor appointed A. Bryan Williams as the first game warden. He was also a guide. His flies, the grey/ green sedge, were famous.

Around 1939, the publication Western Angler came out, drawing more purist fishers to the interior. Names like Bill Nation, Bill Shaw and Dr. Lambert all fished Kamloops lakes such as Knouff, Wolloper, Paul, and Pinantan. It was not uncommon to catch and release 1500 trout in three days on any of these lakes.

Many books began to appear on the wonderful fly fishing of the region. The art of fly tying became more refined, almost a science, as insects were studied, patterns changed, and the legends of incredible fishing continued.

Back in the early 1950’s our own White Lake held 18 to 25 lb trout. Little River was world famous for big rainbows particularly particularly in spring freshet, as millions of salmon fry descended into Little Shuswap Lake. With liberal catches and little enforcement from the game commission, it soon spelled the demise of wonderful angling on the fly. It is now coming back, and anglers are coming from around the world to a catch and release fishery. White Lake has restrictions, and 1 to 5 lb rainbows.

The debate still goes on whether feathers or fur catch more fish. The cock phesant that doesn’t make it across the road is quickly grabbed. The tail and rump feathers make great feathers make great Spratleys and cary’s. Rabbit fur makes hare’s ears dry flies. For all those who enjoy fly tying, it’s rewarding and relaxing. There are mylar tubes, crystal hair, gold bead, and a wide array of product for the fly tier now.

shuswapoutdoors

by Hank Shelley Salmon Arn’s fly fishers and tiers are the best in the world – Jim Willis and Bill Keown, to name two. The Shuswap Fly Fishers group has guest sessions.

What Isaac Walton started 300 years ago, and John Keast Lord wrote about in 1866, is enjoyed by anglers everywhere today. We are of the earth and water.

Here and there in the Shuswap Although thieves roam around looking for opportunity to steal, seniors are often hurt more by their unscrupulous acts. A senior and very active member of the Salmon Arm Fish and Game Club for years had a break in some time ago, in which the suckers stole expensive fishing gear, rods and reels, even his outboard motor. Another senior member of our organization had expensive equipment, rods, reels, and outdoor camo clothing taken. The tough part was going through their insurance agent to claim theft. They wanted receipts for all items, which was difficult and time-consuming. In one of Sally Scales’ previous columns she wrote about the Saskatchewan security system: leaving a size 13 pair of boots on the doorstep and a note to feed the two guard dogs in the house, etc. Better still, put your car keys by your bedside at night. If you hear a ruckus outside, or someone trying to break in, just press the panic button. It’s an alarm system that really works, and can be reset. Also, carry your keys while walking to the parking lot at night. The alarm button can be used in case of a heat attack as well, drawing immediate attention to the situation.

Tight lines and good fishing, as most lakes are seeing lots of anglers getting out for a day’s fishin’!

Helping the birds

Maja Weisinger, right, and Monika Weisinger build birdhouses with the help of their father Peter during a Young Naturalist Club outing last Sunday. The popular session drew a crowd of 34 participants, and was held on the property of local club leaders Geoff and Emily Styles.

Materials for the houses were prepared by Shuswap Naturalist Club member Jim Hoskins, and the children were able to take the houses home.

The Young Naturalist Club of BC (YNC) has numerous groups througout the province, including this one in Salmon Arm. For information about club, send an email to yncsalmonarm@ gmail.com. LSN staff photo.

Clean your feeders

Black Press Backyard bird enthusiasts should regularly clean their bird feeders and bird baths at this time of year, as migratory songbirds return from their winter retreats.

Species such as pine siskins, redpolls and grosbeaks congregate in large flocks in spring, and their close contact at a time of weather stress and nutrition shortage can pass diseases from bird to bird, says a bulletin from the B.C. forests ministry.

Cleaning feeders every two weeks and changing water in bird baths every few days can reduce the spread of avian pox virus, avian conjunctivitis and salmonella bacteria among birds. Using metal or plastic feeders rather than wood, and spreading out multiple small feeders that only allow one or two birds at a time also reduces the risk of disease transmission.

Wildlife biologists say these bird diseases can also spread to people handling infected birds or contaminated materials. Placing bird feeders over a concrete surface allows easier cleanup of litter underneath, which can also prevent spread of infection.

If you see one or two sick birds in your area, biologists advise clearing and scrubbing the feeder.

If there are more than three diseased birds, take your feeder down for a week or two to encourage birds to disperse.

Here are some common signs to look for: • Birds with avian conjunctivitis have red, swollen, watery or crusted eyes. Infection can be spread by feeders with small openings that birds touch with the sides of their heads. Infected birds may have trouble feeding and remain on the ground near the feeder.

• Birds with salmonella bacterium may be found dead or appear tame, sitting quietly for hours or days, often with their feathers fluffed up. Salmonella can easily spread to pets or humans, and so strict hygiene should be enforced in these situations.

• Birds with avian pox virus may have warty lesions on the unfeathered parts of their head, legs or feet.

Patrick Clyde Miller

August 21, 1938 – March 26, 2015 It is with great sadness we announce the passing of Patrick Clyde Miller at the age of 76 years. Patrick passed over peacefully with the love of his family by his side at Kelowna General Hospital on March 26, 2015. He will be sadly missed by his loving wife of 55 years, Georgia. Patrick was born in Kamloops BC and was raised in Pioneer, a small mining town in Bridge River Valley. Patrick and his beautiful bride Georgia moved to Sicamous in 1966. Pat and several of his friends were the founders of Miller’s Cove campsite, the place that became the heart of many of the family’s sacred memories.

Also mourning the loss of Patrick are his children, Kevin, Shane (Cori), Shantel (John), and Darren (Shelley) and many nieces and nephews. Patrick was a man of few words, but when he spoke it had purpose. Patrick was the happiest while golfing, boating or watching his grandchildren grow up; Ashley, Steven, Keaton, Alyssa, Brandon, Jessica, Brooke-Lyn, Austin, Dante, and Julian. His love for his grandchildren was his one big soft spot in life.

A Celebration of Life service will be held at the Sicamous Legion on Friday April 3, 2015 at 4 pm.

Arne Melvin Stabeck 1936 - 2015

Arne Melvin Stabeck passed away peacefully on March 24, 2015 at Vernon Jubilee Hospital at the age of 78. Arne was the youngest of three children of Olaf and Agnes Stabeck.

Arne was predeceased by his parents; his sister Karin Lutz; and his brother Ovar Stabeck.

He is survived by his two daughters: Lori (Wayne) Crandlemire and Kelly (Sam) Polson; grandchildren: Dustin (Jody) Baumle, Tasha (Chance Temple) Baumle, Kaitlyn Crandlemire and Ashlyn Stabeck; great grandchildren: Tristan and Jolea. He is also survived by Yvonne Polson and fondly remembered by his nieces and nephews Arne’s life began on August 3, 1936 in Brooks, Alberta. He moved to BC as a young child and attended school in Grindrod and then in Salmon Arm where he grew up on the family farm. Arne met Yvonne Pritchard in 1955 and they were married in 1958 and moved to Vancouver. Their first daughter Lori was born in Vancouver and shortly thereafter they moved back to Salmon Arm and then to Enderby where their second daughter Kelly was born. Arne’s auto-body career started in Vancouver at Marshall Pontiac Buick and continued in Armstrong where he worked for Bert Fletcher until he purchased his own body shop in Enderby which was known by all as Arne’s Autobody. Arne continued “banging fenders” until he sold the shop to Shane and Kari Williamson and retired. Arne owned and operated a tow truck for several years, belonged to the fire department, and loved playing slow pitch with the “Buzzards”. Due to unfortunate health complications, Arne had spent the better part of his last year at Bastion Place in Salmon Arm but longed to return to Enderby and, in February of this year and for the final month of his life, he did return to Enderby and was residing at Parkview Place.

Arne will be lovingly remembered and missed by his family and friends.

A memorial service will be held at the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah’s Witnesses (115 George Street, Enderby, BC) on Saturday, April 11 at 1:30 pm.

It is with a great sense of loss that we announce the sudden passing of Mona Bradley (nee Roberts) at her home in Salmon Arm on March 27, 2015.

Mona was born at Barrhead, Alberta on September 1, 1960. She was the 10th of 12 children born to William Roberts of Barrhead, and Mary Anne Moss of Aghyaran, in the County Tyrone, Ireland. She spent her first seven years on the family farm. In 1967 the family moved to Revelstoke and then to Salmon Arm in 1968. With the exception of a few years in Vancouver, Mona lived in Salmon Arm for the rest of her life.

She was predeceased by her sister Mary in 1966, her father in 1977, her brother Ron in 2003, her mother in 2008, her brother William in 2010, and her sister Theresa in August of 2014.

She was a mother, sister, aunt and great friend.

Many knew her and remember her in this sad time. She was well known in the hospitality industry, as well as in the great circle of friends common to her family in the Shuswap-Okanagan, the Lower Mainland, Alberta, and in Ireland and the United States.

Mona lived for her daughter, Jennifer, who grew up in Salmon Arm and graduated from high school here. During Jennifer’s high school years, their home was a gathering place to a good number of young people who have now said they saw Mona as a second mother. That home was the center of her life, surrounded by the beauty of Mona’s green thumbed hobby, and often filled with the delights of her great cooking and the family and friends come back from far and wide, to laugh together and tell wild stories, growing wilder in the telling at each repeat.

Mona Bradley is survived by her daughter Jennifer (Nigel) of Leduc, Alberta. She is also survived by three sisters and four brothers: Maureen Roberts of Connemara, Ireland; Eileen Loewen (Darrel) of Vernon, BC; Sheila Robertson, of Delta, BC; Kevin Roberts, of Calgary, Alberta; Dennis Roberts of Salmon Arm; James Roberts (Barb) of Salmon Arm, and Patrick Roberts (Katie) of Fort Smith, NT. Her passing is also deeply mourned by her 18 nieces and nephews and her wider family in BC, Alberta, the United States and Ireland. She was a great aunt, literally and in every sense of those words.

Mass of Christian Burial will take place at 2:00 pm on Thursday, April 2, 2015 at St. Joseph’s Catholic Church, 90-1 St SE, Salmon Arm, BC, with Celebrant Father George. Interment will follow in Mt. Ida Cemetery.

On line condolences may be sent to Mona’s obituary at www.bowersfuneralservice.com Funeral arrangements are in the care of Bowers Funeral Home, Salmon Arm. Flowers are welcome, as are donations to the BC Heart & Stroke Foundation.

Willis, Dennis Russell 1951-2015

It is with heartfelt sadness that we announce the death of Dennis following his long and courageous battle with cancer, always with hope in his heart.

With Helen by his side, sons Corey and Aaron, sisters Heather and Pam nearby, he slipped away from us peacefully on March 25th.

Dennis faced his cancer journey as he faced life, always with an inviting smile, a whistle on his lips, a story to be told and a zest for life that left all those he touched with a light heart and smile.

Born in Port Alberni, January 5, 1951, his career varied from municipal policing in Calgary where he met Helen, real estate, and then his love in car sales from Victoria to Abbotsford, never just a job but always his vocation! Boating with Helen was his “JOY”, which he shared enthusiastically and generously with family and friends.

He especially enjoyed entertaining family and friends with verve, hiking and Rotary International where he involved himself fully with the Student Exchange Program and remains loved by his “girls”, Carla (Brazil) and Irene (Mexico).

In retirement he and Helen found their winter paradise in Panama and enjoyed for many years the ocean, warmth and many friends there.

Dennis was pre-deceased by his parents, Sherwyn and Clara Willis. He is survived by his loving wife Helen, sons Corey (Tanya), Aaron, and Shane (Sasha), grandchildren, Apprelle, Deven, Brandon and Taryn, sisters Heather and Pam (Don).

By request there will be no funeral service at this time. A private Celebration of Life will be at a later date. Remembrance of Dennis will be in our hearts with the special memories we each have for him.

Special thanks to the compassionate staff at Interior Health (Mary Jane) for care at home and in hospice, and to Bastion Place Hospice Unit, you made this very difficult journey happen with dignity. Judy and Kim, we thank you as you shared your love while walking your own path.

Kevin, Dennis could not have walked this path without your guidance, you were his doctor but more so his friend.

WORD SEARCH

CAPRICORN

Capricorn, thinking outside of the box comes easily to you. Although others may scoff at your unconventional ways, you always get the job done and this week is no different.

AQUARIUS

Aquarius, peer pressure abounds this week, but you needn’t worry about succumbing to it. You like to march to the beat of your own drum, and others look to you as a leader.

PISCES

Pisces, you may need to take an unusual approach to get things done this week. Don’t be afraid to be aggressive.

ARIES

Patience is a virtue you must have this week, Aries. Others may not be able to maintain your pace, so exercise patience with those who need it.

PUZZLE NO. SU154280

TAURUS

Share your thoughts and feelings about a particular project wtth others, Taurus. The people closest to you will provide just the support you need to move forward.

GEMINI

Embrace the competitive nature of a coworker this week, Gemini. This person might just motivate you to reach heights you have yet to reach, and this may lead to a promotion at work.

CANCER

Cancer, a heart-to-heart talk with a loved one has you feeling confident as you move forward.

Embrace this chance to communicate for the opportunity it truly is.

LEO

Leo, allow someone close to you to enjoy his or her space this week. Find a way to keep busy as this special someone does some soul-searching.

VIRGO

Avoid rushing to judgment on an issue this week, Virgo. Rather than speculating on the "whys" and "how comes," wait until you can get some solid facts.

SCORPIO

Scorpio, lend a helping hand to a loved one who could use some words of encouragement.

SAGITTARIUS

Sagittarius, anxiety about starting a new chapter in life is normal. Fear of the unknown can worry anyone, but look forward to all of the positive changes that are in store.

Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each ANSWER TO PUZZLE NO. SU154280 number can appear only once in each row, column and box.

You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!
