ARNE PETRYSHENGet your prized pumpkins
and cucumbers together be-cause it’s almost time for the Kootenay Country Fair. Of course there are many things to do and see at the annual event that celebrates the area and the season.
Trudy Larson, president of the Kootenay Country Fair So-ciety, said the event is shaping up to be a great one.
Larson said they are expect-ing upwards of 3,000 people at the event. She noted Fort Steele is unique in that no matter how many people are in attendance,
it never feels crowded. The fair takes place on Sun-
day, Sept. 13, from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., and has 20 different events. The events are put to-gether by a dedicated group of ladies from the society.
That includes the garden produce category, where pota-toes, beans, carrots and other prized produce will be judged on quality, form, condition and appeal.
Entry forms have to be in by Sept. 8 for the various catego-ries that will be judged.
Then they are brought in on Saturday after 1:30 p.m. then
are judged. On Sunday the en-tries are displayed with their awards.
“Then we have an auction in the afternoon, it’s usually preserves and baking and all the vegetables that are left — most people just leave their vegetables and their flowers and we auction them off at the end of the day,” she said.
Then there are sections dedicated to the dog show, cut flowers and potted plants, home baking and much more.

ber shop quartet and many more.

ARNE PE TRYSHENA grizzly bear attack
that occurred Tuesday night has left a man with non-life-threaten-ing injuries.

WELCOMEWELCOMEWELCOME
Drs. Dean Nish and Laura Turner are pleased to welcome
Dr. Stephan Wolfs to the Nish Dental Clinic. Stephan and his family have settled in Cranbrook after serving 9 years as a Dentist with the Canadian Armed Forces.
He is accepting new patients and looks forward to meeting you.
This year the dog show was slimmed down from 10 categories to five for this year.
“For that you register
at 2 p.m. and the show is at 2:30 p.m.” she said. “Dogs are welcome at Fort Steele on leashes.
There will be a fruit
and vegetable truck with fresh produce for sale. There will be plenty of other vendors as well.
She said that has been something that
people in the past have always asked for, and this year it is happening.
Fort Steele itself will have a lot of its own events on such as wagon rides, and the train. The 4-H Club will bring sheep and goats out.
This year, there are four locations for ad-vanced tickets.
“We’re trying ad-vanced this year be-cause there’s always such a line at the gate,” she said. “So if you get your tickets in advance there will be a special
gate to go through.”The advanced tickets
can be purchased in Cranbrook at the Cran-brook Chamber of Com-merce and the Choice, or in Kimberley at the Kimberley Chamber of Commerce as well as the Snowdrift Cafe.
The Kootenay Coun-try Fair was started in Wycliffe years ago.
“So it was a very small, little fair at the Wycliffe exhibition grounds,” she said. “About 11 years ago now we moved it to Fort Steel

The Kootenay Country Fair returns to Fort Steele Heritage Town Sept. 13.
“We’re not sure if there was some previous hunting that oc-curred that morning that may have brought the grizzly bear in there,” he said, clarifying that a kill from another hunter earlier in the day may have attracted the grizzlies to the area.
“We got an inclination from the helicopter flight that there may be something like that that may have occurred,” he said. “So we’re doing some further investi-gation into that.”
Caravetta said it the attack is being looked as a defensive one, rather than a predatory attack. It occurred in the timbered area
near between the field and the river.
Caravetta noted there were four conservation officers spe-cialized in predator attacks there assessing the situation. Two of the officers are from this area and two drove down last night.
He said the recent drought has prompted bears to search out food and come closer to commu-nities.
“B.C. getting numerous calls on bear sightings certainly re-lates to the fact that it was very hot, and a very poor berry crop, as a result bears are moving fur-ther distances to locate food as they get prepared for hibernation
in the next two months,” he said. That is not just grizzly bears, but black bears as well.
Caravetta said, with the re-duced natural food source out there, they are asking the public to be extremely diligent when out in the bush. He said it’s also im-portant to be diligent on things that could be attractants to bears, such as fruit trees, barbecues and garbage.
“And just to be extra diligent in taking care that those attrac-tants aren’t available to bears,” he said.
If you encounter a bear, call the RAPP line as soon as possible at 1-877-952-7277 to report it.

and carried on.”The society is helped
by a grant from Colum-bia Basin Trust Commu-nity Initiatives Group.
That has helped them keep the tickets prices as low as possible — $4 for an adult and $15 for a family.

Magnesium: A Common De� ciency
Live Life Well.New patients always welcome in
Kimberley and Cranbrook!For detailed information please visit:www.roots-to-health.com
or call 778-481-5008734 Rotary Drive, Kimberley
Magnesium is a vital mineral that is of often overlooked in favour of its counterpart Calcium. It is the second most common mineral de� ciency next to Zinc and is crucial for over 300 different enzymatic reactions in the body. Some reasons for this wide spread de� ciency include the processing of foods and use of certain fertilizers to grow fruits and vegetables leading to lower magnesium content. Some medications or conditions such as statins, chronic stress and digestive dysfunction can lead to a decrease in the absorption of dietary magnesium as well. Magnesium is necessary for the production of energy used by the cells and can also help relax skeletal and smooth muscle. Foods sources that are higher in magnesium include raw nuts, leafy green vegeatables, � sh, organic soy beans and raw cacao. Common symptoms of mild-moderate de� ciency are anxiety, depression, fatigue, insomnia, irritability, panic attacks, muscle cramps or twitches, hypertension and headaches. Magnesium supplements come in a wide range of forms and vary in their ability to be absorbed and utilized by the body. Magnesium citrate and oxide are a lower cost form and tend to cause more digestive upset or diarrhea at lower doses, whereas magnesium glycinate/bisglycinate and other amino acid chelates are more absorbable and effective to correct de� ciency. Magnesium has been shown to be effective for conditions such as migraine prophylaxis, hypertension, PMS, restless leg syndrome and sleep disturbances. I have also used it clinically to reduce muscle cramps and pain. Magnesium does interact with certain medications so it is important to consult a healthcare professional prior to starting any supplementation. Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions about magnesium or other vitamins and minerals.

1 As part of government’s larger transformation plans, a new K-12 education curriculum will be phased in over 3 years. Curriculum will continue to focus on reading, writing
& arithmetic, but will enable students to learn as individuals using a broader range of tools.
Flexible learning is central. Students can learn core subjects while doing projects of their individual interest, such as music, hockey & dinosaurs.
There will be more hands-on learning opportunities for students to see how theory applies in real life situations.
Teachers of K-9 will have the option to use the new curriculum now with full implementation in fall of 2016. The entire K-12 curriculum will
be phased in by 2017-18. For the fi rst time, teachers collaborated on the creation of a new curriculum that includes all subjects.
Flexible learning is central. Students can learn core subjects while doing projects of their individual interest, such as music, hockey & dinosaurs. 2

Black PressWith communicable
diseases such as whoop-ing cough and measles making a comeback, Provincial Health Officer Dr. Perry Kendall is re-minding parents to make sure their chil-dren’s vaccines are up to date as they return to school.
“By the time a child reaches five or six years old, he or she should
have received booster shots that protect against measles, polio, chicken pox, whooping cough and more, and kids in Grade 6 and 9 should re-ceive follow-up vaccina-tions,” Kendall said. “This is all part of B.C.’s free, routine immuniza-tion program.”
Parents can now sign up for free text message reminders at immunize-bc.ca/reminders, and
the website also offers a smartphone app to manage immunization records.
Kendall advocates that B.C. should join On-tario and New Bruns-wick in requiring parents
to provide vaccination records when children are enrolled in school.
Vaccinations them-selves would not be mandatory, but the re-cords would allow schools to exclude un-
protected children during outbreaks of communicable disease, and give public health authorities an opportu-nity to help parents fill gaps in their children’s protection.
Vaccine reminder for back to school
T r e v o r c r aw l e yThe provincial government is en-
couraging parents in the region to take advantage of a grant program that will provide funding for education and training in their children’s future.
In Cranbrook, Fernie, Sparwood and Elkford, parents ca go to the local branch of the East Kootenay Commu-nity Credit Union, to apply for a one-time grant of $1,200, will be deposited into a Registered Education Savings Plan (RESP) upon approval.
In order to be eligible for the grant, children have to be born in 2007 or later and there is a three year dead-line—or until the day before the child’s ninth birthday—to apply.
Central 1 Credit Union is the host organization of the grant for their 42 member credit unions, consisting of 365 branches and more than 550
ATMs across B.C. “This is an easy way to give your
children a head start in their post-sec-ondary education and career train-ing,” Kootenay East MLA Bill Bennett said.
With the $1,200 grant and an in-vestment of $50 a month, savings could grow to $12,000 (based on a 3.5 per cent annual growth rate). Growth of funds will depend on the amount invested and actual returns.
No matching or additional contri-butions are required to access the $1,200. Even a small amount of sav-ings in a RESP increases the likelihood that a child will continue their studies after high school.
In the next decade more than 78 per cent of job openings will require some form of post-secondary educa-tion and training.

Lorne eckersLeyCreston Valley Advance
Creston resident Katherine McAdam has died in what police sus-pect was a homicide. McAdam was the sub-ject of a missing person investigation last week.
“Forensic analysis of suspected human re-mains have confirmed them as being that of Katherine McAdam,” an RCMP press release said on Tuesday morning.
The 58-year-old McAdam was reported missing from her home to the RCMP on Aug. 18.
On the afternoon of Aug. 27, Creston RCMP members discovered “what they believed to be human remains” while conducting their inquiry at a residence in the 2700 block of High-way 3. The Southeast District major crime unit was contacted and has since taken over the investigation.
RCMP believe 58-year-old Creston woman’s death was a homicide
“I have been very im-pressed with the major crimes unit’s efforts to work with our detach-ment and to keep com-munication open,” Staff Sgt. Darryl Hammond said on Monday, in only his second week on the job as commander of
the Creston detach-ment.
Anyone with infor-mation in regards to McAdam’s death is asked to contact the Creston RCMP Detach-ment at 250-428-9313 or BC Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

“R emember way back in 2015?” I said to my colleague, as we maneuvered the giant con-
crete block into position. “Before all this talk of building a wall?”
Me, my colleague, and thousands of others were toiling like ants, building the Great Wall along the length of the Canadi-an/American border. Forty feet high, and when it would be done, it would be almost 9,000 kilometres long, including Alaska, and visible from space.
“Seems weird, there used to be just nothing here,” my colleague said. “Just trees and stuff. Remember, every now and then the trees would catch on fire?”
“Don’t have to worry about that now,” I said. “Not with the Great Wall!”
“There was talk of it even before Presi-dent-For-Life Trump (may he live forever) was elected, way back in 2016,” my col-league said. “He was originally talking about a wall along the U.S./Mexican bor-der, but since the border with Canada is so much longer, he went for Canada instead.”
“But wouldn’t that make the wall in-finitely more expensive to build?”
“Doesn’t matter to President-For-Life Trump (may he live forever). He got Mexi-co to pay for it.”
Using our special wall-building ma-chines, we got the giant block into its place along the Great Wall. Like the Canadian Pacific Railroad of yore, the Great Wall was being built in sections. We were looking forward to linking up with the Lower
Mainland wall-building gang one of these years. Building the Great Wall through the mountains was a job of work, all right, compared to, say, the prairie wall-building gangs. But it could have been worse. We could have been on the Alaska wall-build-ing gang.
My colleague and I stepped back to admire our work. On the giant block next to the one we had just installed was a giant advertisement for President-For-Life Trump’s chain of mega-malls.
“Hey Canada,” it read. “Once you’ve come through the armed check-
points in the Great Wall and into our Land O’ Freedom, make sure to check out the Trump Pinch-a-Penny Centre and Casino in lovely Boise, Idaho. We’re offering 20 U.S. Cents on the Canadian Dollar. Bar-gains, Bargains, Bargains!”
I stretched my shoulder muscles, made as powerful as a mule’s by years of wall-building.
“You know, a chap could get used to this wall-building work,” I said. “Once we’re done here, in 2030, maybe there will be another wall-building job — in China or somewhere.”
“I hear Prime-Minister-For-Life Harper (may he live forever) is having a giant pyr-amid made, as a symbol of his vastness,” my colleague responded.
“I’m confused,” I said. “When are we actually supposed to say (may he live for-ever)? After we say ‘President-For-Life Trump (may he live forever), or Prime-Minister-for-Life Harper (may he live for-
ever)? It gets me so mixed up.”“You and everybody else. We all just err
on the side of caution. We don’t to make a protocol mistake — the government will press gang you into the wall-building squads.”
We both had a good laugh over that.“What were you, before you ended up
on the Wall?” my colleague asked. “Small town newspaperman. Media
were the first to taken up for the Wall. How about you?”
“I was a scientist,” my colleage said. “We were actually the first to go to the Wall. You guys just didn’t report it.”
The train huffed into view, carrying another massive load of concrete blocks. But it was late afternoon, and off in the distance the quitting-time whistle blew.
“Say, it’s payday,” I shouted. “Let’s go find the straw boss!”
We stood in line to collect our week’s wages. Because President-For-Life Trump had got Mexico to pay for the Great Wall across the Canada/U.S. Border, we were paid in pesos.
“So much is this actually worth?” I asked my colleague, jingling the coins in my hand.
“I don’t know yet,” he said. “I’ve been saving mine for a trip to the Trump Pinch-A-Penny Centre and Casino.”
I looked back at the Great Wall, stretch-ing off into the distance, still years from completion. Then I shrugged and turned away for the night. “It’s a living,” I said to myself.

Items compiled from the archived newspa-pers held at the Cranbrook History Centre

1901Frank opens … Frank, the most recently
organized town in Alberta is to be formally opened on the 10th and to commemorate the event a grand fete is to be given by the Hon. H. L. Frank and Mr. S. W. Gebo, the promoters of the coal mine at that place, who have prepared an elaborate program for those who elect to become their guests on that day. The new town of Frank is situated about two miles east of Blairmore on a broad level flat, stretching from the base of Turtle mountain across the valley of middle fork of the Old Man river to the mountains to the north of the river. It is one of the most picturesque spots in the Cana-dian Rockies and an ideal site for a town.
Were badly beaten … Last Monday the Cranbrook Lacrosse club went to Fernie to play the boys of that town. They went, they played and they were conquered. The score stood four to one in favor of Fernie but the sting of defeat was lost sight of in the good time had as guests of the Fernie club, and the kind courteous treatment accorded them by all the ladies and gentlemen of that city. The boys were loud in their praises when they re-turned, and all agreed that the visit was one they would not forget very soon,
Cheap meal … L. B. VanDecar, of the Royal hotel, is getting a great reputation for his Sunday evening turkey dinners, for which he only charges 25 cents. Mr. VanDecar has one of the best dining rooms in South East Koote-nay, and everything is kept as neat as wax
throughout his establishment. NASTY TRICK … Someone played a
practical joke on the Fernie police on Saturday last. Constable Farquharson, who had his chain gang working on the street near the jail, was taken ill and the men were left alone for a few minutes until Constable Barnes arrived to take charge. In the interval someone brought along a good supply of whiskey and loaded up the whole crowd, with the result that by the time Constable Barnes arrived a big fight was in progress and the whole crowd was soaked in booze.
1902 It is the same old story ... Just a difference
in figures. That’s all. Cranbrook played Cal-gary. Who won? Say, stranger, where are you from that you should ask such a question? Cranbrook, of course. Haven’t they played 10 games this season? And haven’t they won 10? The scalps of East Kootenay hang at their belts, and four scalps from Alberta, one from Pincher, two from Medicine Hat, and now Calgary relinquishes a gory, hoary forelock. The boys left last Sunday. They traveled nearly 24 hours and then played. That don’t make any difference with that aggregation. They could go to the moon and win within 60 min-utes after they got there. Can Jamieson pitch? All same cannon ball. And that man Bertram! Well, he has been catching freight trains for years, and a cannon ball is dead easy. Mal-linson played first. Did you ever see a piece of meat drop into the mouth of a St. Bernard dog? It can’t escape. That’s Mallinson on first. He eats them, and then keeps on smiling. And then Hampden and Tedlock on second and third, finishes up the triangle of sure things. And that shortstop, Watson! That nice-look-ing, curly headed boy, who starts the girls
clapping their hands. He goes after a hot ball like a trout after a grass hopper. An eye like an eagle, a movement like a streak of lightning, he gets there with both feet and both hands every time. The outfield is a winner, but with Jamieson pitching they don’t get much to do. Harry Nevin, the man who makes the opposi-tion crazy with his coaching, is poor! A fly in his field is like a silver dollar thrown on the bar with a thirsty crowd; it is gone. Hughes and Thorp are the other two, and they make a solid wall. The boys play ball all the time. They don’t booze, but are ready to work and attend strictly to business. E. H. Small, the manager, looks after them. They like him, and what he says, goes, when on a trip. And then they are all gentlemen. Cranbrook is proud of them as players and individuals. Hurrah for the base-ball boys!
A handy device ... A Grenier, of this city has patented a novel device for cooking steaks. It is a conical cover that is placed over any sized skillet, and does away with the smoke and steam that is such a nuisance in a kitchen. It also retains the flavour of the meats. Mr. Grenier is taking orders and sells them at 50c, 75c, and $1.50. He also makes them for restaurants and hotels, that work with pulleys and weights which are sold for $3.00. They are worth investigating, and would without a doubt prove a great help in any kitchen. Drop Mr. Grenier a card and he will be glad to call upon you.
Not newsworthy … An item of news that is not news: The morning passenger train was late seven days last week. If there had been another day in the week it would have proba-bly been late eight days.

Letters to the editorBarry Fire and
FundraiserTragically, a family home on acreage
on St. Mary’s Lake Road burnt to the ground early a.m. on August 17. Kathleen Barry and her husband (Dave Barry, R.I.P. 2009) and children built this home which was lost to fire along with all contents, and six outbuildings. She and her family give deep gratitude for so many courageous people who came to their aid to put out the fire and be there in their trials during this time.
The family is very thankful for emer-gency response from professionals as well as individuals. As with anything they are so very enormously grateful that no lives were lost.
Courageous neighbours, her sons and friends, worked long and hard to extin-guish the fire which was outside town limits. Unfortunately the rural property restricts professional fire fighters from coming onto the property.
The emergency response was very swift; police, ambulance, follow-up hospi-tal care, along with other such profession-als managed to help in many ways for which the family extends great apprecia-tion. Although there was no insurance, some larger garages and structures that held some lumber have been saved.
Many friends and neighbours are now pulling together to work hard at clearing burnt debris and preparation to rebuild. The family is very humbled and grateful at the outpouring of food, clothing and sup-plies as quick response to get them through the first week of challenges.
As with anything, thanking individuals at this time is difficult due to missing out
some names, so for now, please know how grateful the family is for so much aid in their time of difficulty and see the hearts of so many when such trials take place.
For those who have been asking what they can do or how they can help. At this phase an online fund is being created list-ed below. Any funds contributed will go to the goal of building the new foundation of the home.
One can access this fundraiser through the website: wwwYoucaring.org - Title: Barry Family Fire, Loss of Home and Be-longings https://www.youcaring.com/kathleen-barry-420369
Currently, family and some hard work-ing friends are already excavating for the foundation of a new small cabin. Again, so much gratitude for safety of all and the many who have aided with time and ener-gy and many, many prayers.

Politics at its best? or politics at its worst?With the official start of the federal
election being called over the August long weekend, we also saw the start of political parties’ election sign campaigns. Now, love them, or hate them, they are part of the political tradition in Canada, and one of the most effective ways that candidates have to put their names forward to the public.
As the Campaign Manager for Wayne Stetski, I knew that people would quickly tire of seeing too many campaign signs on public property. So, our team has chosen to be judicious and sparing in our ap-
proach. Every election in which I have partici-
pated in this area has had some level of mischief perpetrated on campaign signs, of all political stripes. Actions range from supposedly humorous slogans added to signs, to theft of hundreds of signs in a single night, to signs actually being burned.
But I have always chosen to believe that these were the actions of misguided pranksters. I have never believed that it was politically motivated or the targeted actions of another campaign.
This weekend, reports were made of widespread theft and damage of signs in communities across the riding, and a number of these incidents were severe enough to be reported to the RCMP.
Unfortunately, this weekend, some campaign supporters also decided to make this a partisan issue, and statements have been made accusing other cam-paigns of orchestrating the damage. This is not acceptable in my view.
Let me be absolutely clear. Vandalism and theft of campaign signs is a crime. It cannot be tolerated, and it must be report-ed.
I choose to see the placement of cam-paign signs as politics at its best: individu-als donating to buy campaign signs and hardworking volunteers taking the time to put the signs up and maintain them.
This is true for every campaign team in Kootenay Columbia. And I believe that we all need to respect this fact, and respect each other.

Versatility, simplicity name of game for MortlockDefenceman/forward hoping hard work earns him opportunity after coming to Kootenay Ice camp from Regina Pats
Taylor rocca PhoTo
After bouncing between Junior A and the WHL’s Regina Pats, forward/defenceman Nathyn Mortlock is hoping hard work, versatility and simplicity lead to opportunity in Cranbrook with the Kootenay Ice.
Taylor rocc aSports Editor
Nathyn Mortlock is hoping a versatile and simple approach to the game will give him a shot at cracking the Kootenay Ice.
The 19-year-old na-tive of Medicine Hat, Alta., is plying his trade at Kootenay Ice training camp this week after spending part of last sea-son with the Regina Pats.
Mortlock, who is list-ed as both a forward and defenceman, is hoping versatility and simplicity provide the key to a permanent place in the Western Hockey League.
“It’s always good for the coaching staff to have options,” Mortlock said after scrimmaging Wednesday morning at Western Financial Place. “If you can play every position, that looks better. I think it’s a little bit of an advantage being able to play both.”
While, Mortlock won’t be playing every position -- goaltender is a little bit outside of his realm -- he’s most com-fortable on the blue-line and has spent training camp anchoring the right point.
Only four regular de-fencemen from last sea-son’s contingent stand fair odds at returning to the Ice blue-line.
Rinat Valiev is ex-pected to turn pro, while Tanner Faith and Tan-ner Lishchynsky, along with an injured Tyler King, represent a trio of 20-year-olds hoping to scrape out an overage spot.
An overage battle rages on with six players in competition -- in-
cluding goaltender Wyatt Hoflin and for-wards Jon Martin and Luke Philp, not to men-tion the fact forward Jaedon Descheneau is still eligible to return from the St. Louis Blues.
With all that in mind, nothing is guaranteed for this year’s 20-year-old crew.
That leaves Troy Murray (1997), Cale Fl-eury (1998), Bryan All-bee (1997) and Dylan Overdyk (1997) the re-maining veterans vying for ice time.
At the end of the day, a veteran presence like Mortlock might not be a bad thing should one of the 20-year-olds not stick.
The 6-foot-1, 183-pound Mortlock has 35 games of WHL experi-ence, including 28 con-tests at the end of the 2014-15 campaign with the Regina Pats.
To top it off, he worked his way into eight playoff games with the Pats, and by all ac-counts, was reliable and serviceable.
“We made a pretty good playoff run [in Re-gina],” Mortlock said. “We lost to a pretty good team in Brandon, but other than that, I was pretty happy with the way I played.
“It is a good experi-ence playing junior
hockey. You learn a lot just being committed and working hard.”
Outside of his time in Regina, Mortlock spent 20 games with the Mel-ville Millionaires of the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League.
According to Jeff Chynoweth, president and general manager of the Kootenay Ice, Mort-lock became available after he was released by the Pats following the 2015 WHL Bantam Draft.
This fall, the versatile junior veteran has his eye on a permanent place in the WHL after being invited to Cran-brook by Garnet Kazuik, director of scouting for the Ice.
“I’m just focusing on myself and playing the best that I can, showing the coaching staff what I can bring to the team,” Mortlock said. “I’m try-ing to just keep it simple and not do too much out there. Hopefully, if I play the way I do, I have a shot at making this team.”
Kootenay Ice training camp concludes Thurs-day at 6 p.m. with the annual United Way In-trasquad Game at West-ern Financial Place.
Notes: The WHL has announced it will be moving to a three-on-three, five-minute over-time period following any regulation tie during the 2015-16 season. The change was made from a five-minute, four-on-four overtime period in an effort to eliminate the number of shootout de-cisions. The change aligns with overtime rule changes made by the National Hockey League earlier this off-season.

Dynamiters deal Lane to Langley, sign rugged defenceman Bertoia
Taylor rocc aThe Kimberley Dy-
namiters have traded forward Lincoln Lane (1996) to the Langley Knights of the Pacific Ju-nior Hockey League in exchange for future con-siderations.
Nitros GM Mike Reid announced the deal Tuesday.
“When we acquired Lincoln last year, there were some high expecta-tions,” Reid said.
“It wasn’t a good fit for him [in Kimberley] or for us. He wanted to get closer to home.”
In 29 games with the Bruins, the native of Sur-rey, B.C., posted seven goals and 29 points. After
arriving in Kimberley, Lane continued his point-per-game pace with 17 points in 17 regu-lar season games, but managed only one assist in 20 playoff games.
In addition to trading Lane, Reid also an-nounced the signing of 6-foot-2, 185-pound blue-liner George Ber-toia (1998).
“With the subtrac-tion of Tyler Kinnon, we needed some more grit on the blue-line,” Reid said. “[Bertoia] is only 17, but he plays an ag-gressive style.”
Bertoia had been at Junior A camp with the Drumheller Dragons of the Alberta Junior Hock-
ey League (AJHL), but is expected to be in Kim-berley for Nitros camp.

BE VIGILANT AGAINST STANDING WATER; 2015 MOSQUITO CONTROL
Effective mosquito control requires the combined the efforts of individual property/homeowners with those of the City of Cranbrook Mosquito Control Program. With water levels lower than average this year sources of standing water from around your property will have a huge potential for mosquito development. Some places to eliminate standing water include:
• Clogged gutters and ditches,
• Trays under � ower pots,
• Outside pets’ dishes,
• Children’s pools and toys,
• Untreated or unmaintained pools or ponds
• Bird baths and feeders,
• Tarps
• Canoes / boats,
• Tires
Residents are encouraged to call the Mosquito Hotline at (250) 421-1294 to report potential mos-quito development sites or for more information regarding the Mosquito Control Program.
TRAFFIC SAFETY IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF ALL: CRANBROOK RCMP
Roadways are a very dynamic environment with situations and circumstances that can change quickly. There is great potential for injury and prop-erty damage if drivers are not
obeying the rules of the road.
Signs and signals such as school zones, stop, yield signs and traf� c lights are only a few tool used to assist drivers in keeping safe while they navigate City streets. In order for these signs and signals to work, they � rst need to be seen then obeyed.
Please be aware of and respect all traf� c signage and signals when driving all year. Make sure our streets are safe for everyone!

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Normally, you fly with a new idea. Today, however, you are like a stick in the mud. You might note that some people will be doing double-takes be-cause of this unusual behavior. Understand that good luck fol-lows creative ideas. Tonight: In the whirlwind of living. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Acknowledge differences of opinion. Not everyone will re-spond as you would like. If you try to coerce someone into your way of thinking, your efforts might backfire. Claim your power, but don’t feel as if you must push hard to get your way. Tonight: In the limelight. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Your sense of direction comes out in a discussion. Being more passive might be difficult, but it would be wise. You will see many alternatives, as you un-derstand the different ideas be-ing presented. Don’t hold back if questioned. Focus on a fun project. Tonight: Accept an offer.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) Be imaginative in your choices. Don’t allow another party to railroad your ideas. You know what works, and you know what you want. Though it might be nice to listen to others, re-member that this is your life and these are your plans. Tonight: Where the action is. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Recognize that a boss could be unusually indulgent. Is there something you need to pres-ent to this person? Now is the time. You could be exhausted by everything that is going on around you. Maintain a sense of humor, and you will be fine. Tonight: Be available. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You might want to move for-ward with a project, yet some-one seems to want to discuss it a little more. You could view this as a waste of time, but give this person the courtesy of present-ing his or her views without you attacking them. Tonight: Make time for a loved one. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Make it a habit to talk with peo-
ple individually rather than as a group. Your interactions will be enhanced as a result, and you’ll have a better sense of whether you have communicated effec-tively. Your effectiveness and your people skills can only ben-efit. Tonight: Be a duo. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Defer to others; you have a lot on your plate. Someone will want to assume responsibility and earn a leadership position. Let this person demonstrate his or her abilities, while at the same time releasing yourself from at least one obligation. Tonight: Be optimistic. Accept an offer. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Evaluate your responsibilities, and decide how much you need to complete. Plan accordingly, but don’t put yourself on a fast-er track than need be. You need to slow down and schedule a doctor’s appointment. Tonight: Squeeze in some exercise, if possible. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You could be in a position where you need to relax more. Open up
to new ideas, even though you’d prefer to follow a more tradi-tional route. A little creativity is likely to spice up a lackluster concept. Tonight: Share a treat with a favorite person. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Reach out to a child or loved one you really care about. Have a long-overdue conversation with this person. Remain thoughtful, but take care of your needs as well. You might need to have a discussion about your bottom line and boundaries. Tonight: Happiest at home. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Conversations remain active and worthwhile. How you han-dle a problem could change quickly as the result of a conver-sation. In fact, you might decide that you don’t have a problem. Let go and start relaxing in the company of another person. Tonight: Meet a pal for dinner. BORN TODAY Guitarist George Biondo (1945), snowboarder Shaun White (1986), musician Al Jardine (1942) ***
Dear Annie: I work in an office with nine other people. For some reason, my boss likes to share every boring detail of her personal life with us. We smile, listen politely and laugh at her “hilarious” anecdotes. This might be bearable if she showed any interest in our lives, but she doesn’t. Occasionally, with one foot out the door, she will ask, “How are you doing?” but it’s obvious she wants a quick answer at most. If she joins a conversation already in progress, she takes over and seems compelled to top whoever is speaking. She always has a bigger, better, funnier or more dramatic story, at least in her mind. Why does she do this? She is bright, talented and accomplished in many aspects of life. Why the need to be the star? She constantly has to send the message: “My life is exciting, your life is nothing.” I hope people will read this and ask themselves how much time they spend talking about themselves compared to how much time they spend listening to others. Is there anything we can do to change this? -- Arizona Dear Arizona: Your boss, like many outwardly successful people, still harbors deep insecurities. This is why she feels the need to prove that she is the most important and interesting person in the room. And because she is so focused on her own behavior, she has few brain cells left to devote to her staff’s personal lives, nor, frankly, does she need to. Your personal lives are not her business. But she is still your employer and if this is the worst thing she does, we’d put up with it. You are handling it perfectly - you smile, listen politely and laugh when called for. It’s annoying, but harmless. Just try not to roll your eyes. Dear Annie: In general, I agree that a guest should not put a bride or groom “on the spot” by asking to bring a date. But I’d like to mention a time when it worked. My partner and his daughter had been estranged for many years. One of the best things to happen was when his daughter’s fiance, a wonderful man, facilitated a reconciliation. Part of the reconciliation was an invitation to their wedding. After receiving the invitation, we had dinner with the fiance. We felt we hadlittle choice but to confirm that, as the father’s partner, I was included in the invitation because my name was not on it. The fiance said yes. We’ll never know if that was simply his decision at the time, but had I not also been welcome, it would have undone all the work of reconciliation. I attended with my partner, everyone was delightful, and a great, celebratory time was had by all. -- A North Carolina Gay Partner Dear N.C.: Your situation is not the same as someone asking to bring a “plus one.” Established partners should always be included in such invitations. Nor was your partner asking to bring you. He was only clarifying the situation, which is perfectly fine. That fiance sounds like a gem. We are so glad he helped reconcile father and daughter, and that you are both welcome members of the family.

in honour of
Johanna KienzerleNovember 9, 1923 –
August 27, 2015
Johanna passed away peacefully at the age of 91 years. She was born in Garmisch-Partenkirchen to parents Johann and Maria Demmel. Johanna is survived by her daughter Margot (Thomas) Ortner, and granddaughters Marion and Yvonne (Sebastian), as well as
her son Hubert (Martha) Kienzerle with grandson Xaver (Judith) Kienzerle and great granddaughter Magdalena, and grandson Maximilian Kienzerle with Juliane Kienzerle.
Johanna was predeceased by her loving husband of 42 years, Herbert Kienzerle. Together with him, Johanna had immigrated to Canada in 1975, where they both retired from work. After several years of living in the city of Edmonton, Johanna and Herbert realized their dream for a home in the Canadian Rockies by building a home near Cranbrook. Here Herbert and Johanna were able to enjoy nature and the open countryside. After Herbert had passed away in 1990, Johanna stayed in their home and took pleasure in the beauty of nature around her. Later on, as life slowed for her, Johanna was able to remain in her home with the help of her friends and neighbours, Patricia and Glen Creelman. Throughout the years in Canada, she had cherished a close relationship to her family and friends in Munich and Oberau, Bavaria (Germany), and was able to visit them regularly up to the age of 85 years
Johanna spent her last years at Joseph Creek care village in Cranbrook, where she felt comfortable and well taken of. Following her deepest wish, Johanna will find her final resting place in Canada, close to her husband Herbert.
The Kienzerle family expresses a deep gratitude to her close Canadian friends Kim and Fred Gietz in Fernie who helped Johanna manage her final years in her new homeland of Canada.
RICE, Gordon RansomApril 4, 1941 -
August 20, 2015It is with heavy hearts and sadness that the family announce the passing of Gordon “Gord” Rice. Gordon was 74 years old and a long time resident of Cranbrook, BC.
Gordon was born and raised in Brandon, Manitoba. In his younger years he played the
game of hockey. His love for the game brought him to Cranbrook in the late 1960’s. He played defense for the Cranbrook Royals Hockey team. Gordon began working at the Skookumchuk Pulp Mill in 1969, where he retired after 38 years of service. Gordon had a great passion for the outdoors. He spent many years enjoying hunting, trapping, guiding, fishing and camping. He married Heather in 1991 and together they enjoyed common interests and a love for the Bull River area. Later in his life he developed a rewarding and maddening relationship with the game of golf. Gordon took pride in having a nice yard. A weed would never exist long in his yard. Gordon enjoyed relaxed gatherings and sharing his cooking and did so many times with family and friends. He would often spoil hunters at the guiding camps with his famous recipes. Gordon was always willing to lend a helping hand with family and friends.
Gordon is survived by his loving wife Heather. His daughters Heidi (James), Jody (Frank) and Heather’s children Cam (Bonnie), Marnie (Clifford) and Kelly (Scott). His brother Tom (Dorothy) and grandchildren Cody, Linden, Vania, David, Spencer, Carter, Delainey and Farrah. Several nephews and nieces. And many special friends. He was predeceased by his parents Jack and Gladys Rice.
In honour of Gordon’s request, there will be no formal service. He wished for a remembrance of him to be at a special place up the Bull River.
In lieu of flowers and in Gordon’s honour a donation can be made to the Cranbrook Minor Hockey League, Attn: Carla Thompson, 1777 2nd St. N, Cranbrook, BC V1C 7G9.
We all hold fond memories of Gordon that make us smile. He was a man who smiled often, had a unique laugh, and a great sense of humour. He will be forever missed by everyone who knew him. Always in our hearts.

Judith Leigh McFarlaneJune 2nd, 1941 - August 25th, 2015
Judy peacefully passed away at the UBC Hospital, where she had wonderful care for her final weeks of life.
She was predeceased by our Mother, Margaret and Father, Murray McFarlane. Sadly, Cousins, Aunts and Uncles as well.
Judy left very special family members surviving her. Niece Julie (Darryl) and Great Niece Sarah home in Victoria. Nephew John and Great Nieces Emily and Jasmine, home in Hobart, Tasmania. Auntie Kay, home in Kimberley and Cousins and Friends. Her Sister Beth (John) in Kimberley, who will no longer share those long phone calls anymore. Judy spoke often of all of us.
Judy, born in Cranbrook, spent her growing up years there. She left home for a secretarial course at the Mount Royal College in Calgary. Vancouver was calling, so her career was with ICBC until retirement. Then she could take cruises and enjoy time in her apartment, watering flowers on the deck and decorating it to her delight. She shared many trips and pleasures with our Auntie Edith, living only blocks apart.
My life is now without my sister but I do have many fun-filled memories.
Thank you to Deryle and Jerry for giving Judy so much happiness on Vinyl.
There will not be a service, your remembrance for Judy can be through the Alzheimer’s Society of BC.
Judy’s family will place her name at the Serenity Gardens, Cranbrook Cemetery.

The 38th Annual Kootenay Country Fair, will be held September 13, 9 am-4:30 pm, at Fort Steele Heritage Town. This event, host-ed by the Kootenay Country Fair Society is one of the best family events held in the East Kootenay. There are many Sections to enter including cut flowers, needlework, baking and photography to name a few.
Anyone with a cam-era and an eye for what they like will take a pic-ture. If this is you and you would like to share your view join us at the Fair on Sunday, Sept. 13. This is better than face-book or Instagram be-cause you can win a rib-bon if you have the best photo in your class.
There are some guidelines to follow when submitting your pictures. Make sure your entry forms are in by Tuesday, Sept. 8, 5 pm to be judged. Drop off entry form only at Top Crop locations and Cranbrook Photo.
Photos to be no larg-er than 8x10 and pic-tures in collections must not exceed 5x7 and the collections must be mounted as one piece.
Your work must be original and not shown before at the Fair. Please make sure that your pic-ture can be hung on the pegboard otherwise it may not be accepted.
The beauty of the Fair is that they only charge 50 cents per item entered. If you are en-tering the Section (L) for Adult photographers (limit three photos in each class per exhibitor) you can enter pictures of people, animals, land-scape, flowers, plants and other.
Be creative. You can share pictures from your far away vacation or your stay-cation, action shots, close ups, that winning smile. You can enter colour or black and white collections of 3-5 photos. As well, you can enter a class with digital manipulated photos. There is a class for Professional and Commercial Photogra-phers with pictures submitted in colour and black and white.
To help you decide of
you fit in the amateur or professional category here is how the internet defines professional and amateur:
Professional: some-one who earns his or her entire living from pro-ducing images.
Amateur: may earn some money — even a lot of money — but pho-tography is not his or her sole means of sup-port. You know who you are and where you fit. Please enter according to what you know.
Section (M) Junior photography is broken down into age catego-ries 6-12 years and 13-16 years. In the age 6-12 class you can enter up to three photos in colour and three to five photos in the colour collection. Yes, six-year-olds have an eye for things they like and their perspec-tive is unique. Try taking yourself to their height and see how different your pictures will be.
13-16 year olds can enter up to three photos in colour and black and white or three to five photos in the colour or black and white collec-tions and they can enter the digital manipulated photo class. Teens have
a view of the world that amazes.
The Best of the East Kootenay is a class in both the Junior and Adult photography sec-tion. Here you can sub-mit pictures in colour or black and white of things that you feel rep-resent the East Koote-nay. Wildlife, rivers, lakes, iconic landscapes and more. Make your photos memorable, im-press the judges with your framing, perspec-tive or the silhouette of that bugling elk against a darkening sky. This class is sponsored by Cranbrook Photo and there will be a unique gift for the winner in each of the classes Ju-nior and Adult Best of the East Kootenay. You have been challenged to impress with your press of a shutter.
The Kootenay Coun-try Fair is a part of the BC Fairs Association. In October the BC Fairs will be hold a confer-ence where there will be on display some of the items from some of the Fairs around the prov-ince. If you want your knitting (infinity scarf, hand knitted), photo (Birds of Flight) or arts
and crafts (bird house, no kits) entered to win $50 and a plaque, you have to have entered the item in a local Fair. Pho-tographers, if you have the ultimate picture of a bird in flight enter it in our local Fall Fair at Fort Steele on September 13 and see if you can win that cash prize.
All exhibits for the Fair, photography in-cluded will be accepted at Fort Steele Opera House on Saturday Sep-tember 12 between 1:30 and 3:30pm for judging. You pay 50 cents per item, collect your tags and take your items to their respective loca-tions. Photography will be shown at the Wild-horse Theatre. If you have any questions about the Fair and being an exhibitor in any of the Sections from gar-den produce to arts and crafts contact Gwen at 250-426-4953 or Trudy at 250-489-1956. They will direct you to the convenors.
Don’t forget the auc-tion of Fair items that takes place at 4:30pm on Sunday. Bring your cash and bid high on the pie. Money raised goes to scholarships.

s u b m i t t e dOn Saturday, Sep-
tember 19, community members will have the opportunity to test drive a new Ford vehi-cle and, at the same time; help raise funds for East Kootenay Foundation for Health’s areas of greatest need.
The test drive will be set up in the parking lot of Denham Ford from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., where several brand new Fords, for licensed driv-ers ages 19+ will be available for a test drive.
The Drive one 4 UR Community program was developed as a fun, engaging way to help communities to raise money to support non-profit organiza-tions. For every valid test-drive completed, Ford Motor Company
will donate $20 to EKFH, up to $6,000!
Since Denham Ford began holding Drive One 4 UR Community events in Cranbrook in 2010, they have been able to raise and donate a significant amount of funds to a wide range of organizations. To date they have raised over $15,000, and have host-ed over 5 community Drive One Events.....and the number keeps on growing!
So, come down for a hot dog and drink and take a Ford for a quick test drive with an EKFH volunteer – no sales person involved. Any-one with a valid driver’s licence earns us $20. To keep the children en-tertained there will fun activities, such as pony rides and a bouncy cas-
tle.Drivers can avoid
waiting in line the day of the event by pre-reg-istering for the test drive at the following site: https://www.d r i v e 4 u r. c o m / e n /d r i v e 4 u r c o m m u n i -ty000000/Register.
“The Drive One for Your program allows the local community to get involved without costing them a nickel! All they have to do is come out and test-drive one of Denham’s vehi-cles. For every test-drive, Ford will donate $20 to help support EK-FH’s areas of greatest need. The maximum that can be raised is $6000 and we want your help to aim for this target!” states Braydon Denham, dealer princi-pal of Denham Ford.

Some editor … F. J. Smyth, editor of the Moyie Leader blew into town Tuesday with a new suit of clothes and a butterfly necktie. Smyth is the Beny Wall of Moyie and men go miles to gaze with awe and admiration at his ties.
named Rous over some cattle; that they had words and that Rous had used some rough language; that Martinier had chased Rous with a pitch fork and attacked him several times; that he had finally run to the house, got his gun, came out pulling down the lever as if load-ing, and raised the gun to-ward Rous; that just at this juncture another neighbor grabbed the gun and plac-ing one hand on Martini-er’s shoulder, said: “Don’t shoot and do something you will have reason to regret;” this stopped the fight as Rous hurried home as fast as he could run. The judgment of the court showed one day. The people showed surprise.
A big gold find ... It is rumored that a very rich strike of gold has been made somewhere about the head of Perry Creek recently, and a number of prospectors have struck out in that direction. Specimens of ore have been shown containing large pieces of gold, also rich in silver in the form of horn silver. It is said that there is a large vein, and that it promises to exceed anything yet dis-covered in East Kootenay. Dan Monroe is the dis-coverer, and a man by the name of Ross, who has been in the district for some time, looking for mining properties for in-vestors, has negotiated for a group of six claims. The locality is about 30 miles from Cranbrook.
Made changes … Al-bert banks saw H. W. Barnes, the erstwhile poo-bah of South East Koote-nay, when he was in Ne-braska a few weeks ago. Mr. Barnes, according to Mr. Banks, has made some material changes in his domestic relations, under the laws of the United States. He is now looking for a location for a booze joint in one of the Western States and has ceased to long for the flesh pots of South East Koote-nay.
New building … Chas. P. Campbell has pur-chased the lot next to the Canadian Hotel and is erecting a large building on it to be rented as a bowling alley and shoot-ing gallery. He intends to have it open Monday, Labor Day.
Not again … The min-ing department of the government is too slow. At this time the whole world is interested in the gold discoveries of the Lardeau. But six or nine months from now the government will issue a bulletin an-nouncing the news that gold has been found. The mining department is a great benefit to the public — nit.
It happened this week in CranbrookAmong the newspaper men of East Kootenay, Smyth is the Adonis as good looks are his long suit, and he has a laugh that drives away the blues, cures despondency, makes
the hair grow and brings joy to the sorrow-ladened.
1903A few good jabs …
Mr. W. R. Ross went down to Cranbrook on Thurs-
day. Before leaving home in the morning he felt twinges of lumbago but paid little attention to it. The pain grew worse during the day and when on the train coming home
Dr. Gordon, of Phoenix, who was with him found it necessary to give him several injections of mor-phine to ease the pain.
Got off lucky … A rancher named Martinier,
living near Wardner, had a preliminary hearing Tues-day on the charge of as-sault and attempted shoot-ing. The evidence showed that Martinier had had difficulty with a neighbor

Rates are subject to change without notice. Fixed mortgage rates shown in table above and quoted variable mortgage rates are available nationally to quali� ed individuals.
When you’ve got ‘rate envy’, does it make sense to refinance?Who would have believed that mortgage rates would have such a continued downward trend?Mortgage shoppers are looking at some of the lowest rates in history, and many home owners with existing fi xed-term mortgages are experiencing some ‘rate envy’ about today’s rock bottom rates.
It might be worth a conversation about your options. Typically, we think of a fi xed term mortgage as a non-negotiable contract. And it’s true that there are fi nancial penalties to re-negotiate. But, many clients have been asking for a mortgage analysis – a detailed look at the penalties versus the payoffs – to determine whether it’s worth refi nancing.
What does it cost to get out of your existing mortgage? Generally, you can expect to pay the greater of either a) three months’ interest, or b) the interest-rate differential. The interest rate differential can be high in some cases; your mortgage lender will expect you to pay them the equivalent of what they
will lose by releasing you from your mortgage and lending the money at current rates.
So is it worth it? For some homeowners it can be an important moment of opportunity, while for others, it may not be worth the costs involved. Most lenders will include the cost of the payout penalty and other costs into the new mortgage so you don’t have to be out of pocket to complete the transaction.
I would be happy to help you make a realistic assessment of your situation and help you determine if your benefi t outweighs the cost. With rates where they are today, there’s never been a better time to talk.
Three things that do or don’t change with a Bank of Canada rate cut.1. The prime rate does, but lenders decide how much of that cut they will pass on to consumers. If you have a variable mortgage, you are now paying
less; sixty per cent of the two recent cuts are now refl ected in lower variable rate. Take advantage and keep your payments the same so you pay off your principal faster.
2. Fixed rates don’t, they are infl uenced by the bond market.
3. Variable mortgage approvals don’t, they are based on a qualifying rate, which means your borrowing power likely won’t increase.
Thinking of fall’ing into home ownership?Let me help determine how much home you can afford and pre-approve you before you start shopping. We’ll also discuss downpayment options and all of the costs associated with buying a home. Don’t be tempted to rush into anything just because the holiday season approaches so quickly. It’s best to make sure you fi nd the right house and stick with your budget. If you are thinking of jumping into home ownership this fall, let’s have a conversation!
