Back in 1956, when moms stayed home and dads went to work – single-income families with the Canadian dream of owning a home or buying a new DeSoto, were routinely denied credit by the local banks.
That's when the idea of forming the Warfield Credit Union was first sparked in the back of a fire truck by H.M. (Ace) Bailey, the resi-dent fireman
“We were all young people with families who couldn't get loans so we felt there had to be a banking system here in Warfield,” recalled Jim Nelson, a founding member. “So when the proposal was made by the fire department to do this, it just all came together.”
The fee to join was 50 cents, though the founding group wasn't deterred when someone didn't have two quarters to rub together.
“Ace Bailey was a good friend of mine,” said Nelson, himself a longtime volun-teer firefighter and veteran Warfield politician. “He and I used to go out on the weekends and visit different people we knew to try and get them to join the credit
union,” he chuckled. “If they didn't have the 50 cents, we'd put it in ourselves just to build the membership.”
Over time, the Warfield Credit Union grew into a $17 million venture and valuable community asset. The organization fundraised for various local charities, paid for sporting events and school team uniforms, pro-vided annual scholarships for J.L. Crowe, Rossland Secondary and Webster School students, and in the ‘90s, invested in the devel-opment of Emerald Ridge.
“It was a real community venture and we came a long way,” Nelson reflected, men-tioning board meetings were held in their homes with the wives catering meals.
“We all went into it with a great deal of pride and wanted it to succeed.”
And succeed it did until 1997, when the lone institu-tion merged with Kootenay Savings Credit Union (KSCU) after it could no longer compete with larger branches.
Today, July 3, is bitter-sweet for Nelson because the Warfield KSCU branch is closing its doors for good.
“It is upsetting losing the credit union in Warfield after all the community spirit that went into build-ing it,” he said.
“There was a great deal of interest when it all started, and I question if anyone would be able or have the incentive to start their own credit union now,” Nelson
sighed. “But it's a sign of the times and things have to move forward.”
One person who knows very well how the banking
world has advanced over time, is 39-year credit union employee Rose Gaudry.
Right out of high school in 1976, she began her
career in Warfield Credit Union, and walked across the street from home to work for 32 years.

All we've been hearing about, and living with lately, is how June has been so dry and hot.
Intense heat broke six daily highs by month end and Warfield/Trail held the province high, 41.1 C, on June 28.
But looking back at the
first three days of the month, the region was doused in heavy rain.
After thunderstorms and brief periods of rain the last two days of June, precipita-tion was actually more than normal, according to the local weatherman.
A slow moving Pacific system produced significant thundershowers beginning
the night of June 1 and con-tinued through to the night of June 3 producing 77 per cent of the month’s total, explained Ron Lakeman from the Castlegar weather office.
During the 60-hour peri-od, 61.5 millimetres (mm)fell, he said. That occur-rence was followed by a light mid-month sprinkle and an intense band of thun-
dershowers with damaging winds on June 29, upping the precipitation total to 80.2 mm compared to the usual 72.3 mm.
Even with rainfall 11 per cent higher than usual, the Southeast Fire Centre banned camp fires effective today in efforts to prevent human-caused wildfires.

Over 200 people gathered at Kiwanis Beaver Creek Park for Canada Day celebrations on Wednesday. (Clockwise) Trail Mayor Mike Martin with wife Debbie Martin and Coun. Kevin Jolly served cake to the crowd; RCMP Constable Eric Brown, new to the Trail detachment, kept a friendly eye on the gathering; Siblings Lincoln and Daenera Voigt enjoyed the fare; Kiwanis flipped a lot of burgers and hot dogs after the earlier pancake breakfast; North of 60 belted out the oldies and the national anthem at noon; and (Left) Kennedie Quintans, 8 and sister Chesa Quintans, 5, were fashionably patriotic in red and white and quick to wave the Canadian flag.

The Trail Historical Society has kindly offered photos and stories relat-ed to the history of Trail.
Two recent acquisitions by the Trail Historical Society have brought back memories of one of Trail’s glory eras in hockey.
In 1926, the Trail Senior Hockey Club fielded a strong team with the goal of winning the Provincial amateur hockey championship. On March 7, 1927 the team rewarded the City with its first Savage Cup (the team won six consecutive prov-incial championships). They went on to defeat the Prairie champions and reached the semi-finals of the Allan Cup Championships, losing to Fort William, Ontario.
The team was front page news in the Trail Daily Bulletin and the community was justifiably proud of their success. On April 12, 1927, a large civic recep-tion was held to honour the team. Mayor Herbert Clark presented each player, the managers and the trainer with a gold watch from the “citizens of Trail” in appreciation for their efforts on the ice.
The watches were engraved with the recipient’s initials on the back and acknowledgement of the occasion on the inside back.
The Society has two watches from this special event. One was given to forward O. G. Gustafson.
The other was given to team Manager, Dick Dimock. In 1929 when the team won its third Provincial Championship,
the City gave an engraved watch fob to Dimock to go with his watch. The third watch the Society has in its pos-session was awarded to the trainer of the 1931 team, Barney Potter.
The Dimock and Potter watches are in their original cases and appear to be well used, showcasing the recipient’s pride in being a Provincial hockey champion.
The Dimock watch was donated by the family of the late Ken Dimock, Dick’s son. The Potter watch was donated by John Potter, a relative to Barney Potter, living in the UK. The Gustafson watch was purchased by the Society in 2001.
All three are treasured artifacts from Trail’s early supremacy in prov-incial hockey.

FROM PAGE 1Fanny Bernard, the centre’s fire information
officer, said lightning strikes the evening of June 30 sparked six local spot fires though no struc-tures are threatened.
Four-man initial attack crews were dispatched to the small fires by Tuesday afternoon.
“There was rain,” she said. “But not enough to lower the fire danger rating.”
The rating remains extreme, meaning forest fuels are very dry and the fire risk is very serious.
New fires will start easily, spread rapidly, and challenge fire suppression efforts.
Currently, the centre has listed one wildfire of note near Westbridge, 11 kilometres north of Rock Creek that has so far, engulfed 26 hectares.
The big news for the last three weeks of June, of course, was the dry climate and sweltering heat. Record daily maximum temperatures of 35.1 C, 33.3 C, 32.9 C, 36.7 C, 39.7 C and 38.3 C, were set from June 8 to June 10 and June 26 to June 28 respectively.
“The 39.7 degree reading on the 27th is the new record maximum for June,” he added. “The previous was 37.9 degrees on June 29, 2008.”
The mean monthly temperature of 20.3 C is a new record maximum for June, breaking the previous 19.8 C set 23 years ago.
More hot days in the mid-to-high 30s are forecast for the weekend followed by a chance of showers on Monday.
More hot weather on the way
FROM PAGE 1Now working in KSCU’s Castlegar branch,
Gaudry said what she misses most is the people she served for decades and the staff she worked alongside.
“It was always a friendly service as Warfield Credit Union and continued that way as Kootenay Savings Credit Union,” she said. “People have been coming there for years and they became like family.”
Gaudry recalled working long hours in the early days, when bank duties like payroll and loan payments were calculated manually.
“Back in those days you’d be working a lot of overtime just trying to get through the day,” she explained. “I remember having a lot of headaches from using so much mind power.”
She remembers hearing the news that the credit union was merging with KSCU.
“I was excited,” said Gaudry. “This brought not only stability for our little community branch but also more career opportunities for us all.”
With computers now managing banking pro-cesses, plus the convenience of telephone and online banking, Gaudry’s time has been freed up to connect one-on-one with members.
“Technology allows us more time to work with our members and find exactly what they are looking for and help them with those services,” she said. “I am sure we will be missed by the members but we are fortunate to still have a lot of KSCU branches, so it’s good.”
The Warfield KSCU location will continue to have an ATM and night deposit service.

The old Dewdney Trail sign that originally stood at the Dewdney Trailhead on Highway 22 in Paterson is getting a new life. Funding for the restoration and setting the sign back up on a new post is being funded by Linda Worley, Director for Area B of the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary. The trail was built from Rock Creek to Wild Horse Creek in 1865 by Edgar Dewdney under direction from the Colonial Governor Frederick Seymour, making 2015 the 150th anniversary of this section of the Dewdney Trail. A new society is being formed to restore and protect the Dewdney Trail. The society has been initiated by the West Kootenay Chapter of the Back Country Horsemen of B.C., and it is planned to include representatives from other trail groups and individuals interested in preserving this iconic trail. Pictured are (from the left) Linda Worley, Graham Jones and Richie Mann.

Conn. - Willimantic’s annual Independence Day parade once again will include the trad-itional Little League teams, floats spon-sored by local busi-nesses, fire trucks, and politicians. But, for the 30th consecutive year, there will be no marching bands.
In what has become an offbeat tradition, the participants and the spectators will instead be carrying radios all tuned to the same local station, which will pro-vide traditional march-ing music.
More than 5,000 people are expected
to attend the town’s annual “Boom Box Parade,” which kicks off at 11 a.m. Saturday.
“I didn’t think the idea would work,” said Wayne Norman, the WILI-AM radio person-ality who has served as grand marshal for all 30 parades. “I didn’t think people would get the concept. Boy was I wrong.”
The parade dates to 1986, when the town could not find an available march-ing band for its annual Memorial Day parade. Organizer Kathy Clark approached the radio station for help. Station officials said it was too late to organ-
ize and publicize for that holiday, but began planning with Clark for July Fourth and the tradition was born.
Norman says the staging area was empty two hours before the parade, but by the time it was ready to start, more than 2,000 people were there, all carrying boomboxes.
Norman said there were some evolution-ary pains as the port-able radios - ubiquitous in the 1980s - went the way of the cassette tape and were replaced by iPods and other port-able electronic devices.
He said any radio or device with a speaker and a way to access the
radio station is wel-come.
“We ask people to please not wear head-phones,” he said. “We don’t outlaw them, but it kind of defeats the purpose.”
The parade, he said, celebrates independ-ence in all its conno-tations. There is no registration to march. Anyone can partici-pate, and they are free to bring signs, promote causes, even advertise for their businesses.
Norman says that in an ironic twist, the Windham High School band, which was not around to march in 1986, this year pro-vided a recorded piece
that will be played dur-ing the parade.
A lot of groups just have fun with the event. That would include the Traveling Fish Head Club of Northeastern Connecticut, which Norman said walks up from the nearby Hop River to join the parade disguised as a giant fish made from wood, wire and papier mache.
“We don’t have many rules,” Norman said. “We just ask people to wear red, white and blue and bring a flag and a radio.”
Members of the state legislature, Congress, and the governor often march in the parade, though Norman said they usu-ally get a bigger turn-out of politicians dur-ing an election year.
“It’s good old Connecticut ingenu-ity,” he said. “Let’s use boomboxes if we can’t have a band. Let’s make do. Let’s invent. Our ingenuity will make it happen.”

T H E C A N A D I A N P R E S SROSSBURN, Man. - A five-year-old boy from
Rossburn, Man., has met the RCMP service dog he helped name. Jackson Antoniw came up with the name Hector for one of the pups born at the Police Dog Service Training Centre in Alberta.
Jackson got an additional prize when Hector and his trainer, Const. Kevin Challoner of Thompson, Man., visited Rossburn Elementary School to meet Jackson.
Challoner said it’s not often a dog is stationed to the province in which it was named and then gets to meet the child who named him.
Boy meets dog he named
C H I L L I W A C K P R O G R E S SDan Rothman and
his nine-year-old son came to Chilliwack just after the movie Jurassic World opened to record numbers. They have not seen the movie yet.
The Rothmans are fishermen. They came here from New Jersey because they heard of the giant monster fish that still swim in British Columbia’s Fraser River.
On Monday, the four-foot tall, nine-year-old Kegan Rothman caught an estimated 600-pound Great White Sturgeon on the Fraser with a B.C. guiding char-ter company called Great River Fishing Adventures. On their first day out, they caught the biggest fish on record for the com-pany this year.
Kegan saw his rod tip dip and he set the hook. A fight ensued. With the help of his father and their guide, Ben Trainer, they played the fish down the river. Great River Fishing Adventures guide Trainer man-oeuvred the sturgeon and the boat, taking one hour and 45 min-utes to land the fish, a nearly impossible feat.
Once on shore, Trainer was able to properly examine the fish. The scientific measurement to the fork in the fish’s tail – the fork length is 9 feet and 5 inches. The fish’s total length was measured at 10 feet and one inch. While it was impossible to weigh it, charts indi-cate that its weight is about 600 pounds. It had a 50-inch girth measured below the pectoral fins.
“I’ve been a profes-sional fishing guide on the Fraser for 11 years and have fished
these rivers my whole life. This is one of my largest fish I have help a client catch,” says Trainer. “We have helped to collect-ively tag more than 61,000 white stur-geon since 1995, and scanned an excess of 122,000 tagged stur-geon, which have been caught and released. With the size of this fish, I’d bet its over 75 years old.”
For the fish enthusi-asts who travelled from New Jersey for their week of angling, it was a fish story to beat all others. With
an iPhone the group was able to take some photos and video foot-age of the catch and release of the giant white sturgeon.
“It is the most excitement I’ve ever
had with a fish. It was so hard to hold onto the rod. I thought the fish was going to pull me into the water,” said Kegan. “I’ll never forget this – this is the best trip of my life!”

Residents of Metro Vancouver have rejected a half-per-cent sales tax to fund $7.5 billion in transporta-tion upgrades across the region.
Elections BC said Thursday that 62 per cent of voters said No to the tax plan put for-ward by mayors and representatives from 21 municipalities and a First Nation.
The tax was expected to generate funding for more buses, road development, a sub-way line extension and construction of a new bridge.
Maple Ridge, Langley and Richmond residents voted over-whelmingly against the tax while the high-est support for the pro-posal came from resi-dents on Bowen Island.
The village of Belcarra and an unincorporated elec-toral area that includes the University of British Columbia were the only other juris-dictions besides Bowen Island to register more than 50-per-cent sup-port for the tax.
Residents in Vancouver voted 51 per cent against the pro-posal.
The Yes side spent just over $5.8 million promoting its stance while the No campaign spent about $40,000 voicing its opposition.
Metro Vancouver residents say No to tax for
transportation projects

OPINION
Regional district director’s role wide and variedSummer is here and
school is out, how-ever, before we all get into that “laid
back and minimal reten-tion” stage that the West Kootenay summer heat seems to bestow upon us, lets have a little more to absorb.
Local Government in the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary. It is common knowledge that it exists, but the logistics of it is often misunder-stood.
Lets talk about the Regional District Director role. RDKB has 5 Electoral Areas, stretching from the boundary of RDCk to the north at China Creek, to Big White and Bridesville to the West.
Each Director is elected by the Constituents in her or his Area during Local Government Elections.
The Electoral Area Director is respon-
sible for overseeing and advising on all activ-ity within the Electoral Area. Development, Business and Residential D e v e l o p m e n t , C o m m u n i t i e s , Agricultural, Industrial, Recreational etc.
In fact, we are Rural Mayors without a Council. We represent, make decisions on behalf of our Constituents locally and to upper levels of B.C Government to improve upon important issues for our Constituents.
Where Municipal Boundaries adjoin RD Boundaries, there is a “fringe area” that is a buf-fer zone between them, and any development within this fringe area by either party is reported to the other for informa-tion due to the possible adverse effect it may cre-ate to the other party.
In other words, we
work closely with our Municipal neighbours in many ways.
The major collabora-tion happens at the RD Board of Directors.
The RD Board consists of RD Directors and Local Government leaders from Municipalities within ,the same Regional District.
While at the Regional District table, all Local Government representa-tives are “Directors”, there are 5 Area Directors
and 8 Municipal Directors. The business conducted there is essential to col-laborate on shared servi-ces, such as Liquid Waste Management, Solid Waste Management, Regional Fire Services etc. across the whole of the RDKB.
These major decisions on shared services for ALL Directors at the Board table are ultimately made by the whole, through a vote of majority.
Regional District “Directors” are Rural Mayors, the only differ-ence between the RD Director and a Municipal Mayor is that the Regional District Director acts without a Council.
He or she wholly makes decisions for their Constituents, and shares these with other RD Area Directors at Electoral Area Service Committee monthly meetings.
On that note lets touch
on an important issue for Lower Columbia/Old Glory residents.
Please watch for the upcoming question-naire on the RD Website regarding the current Recreation Agreement for Area B residents, with the city of Trail, which is end-ing on Dec 31/15.
Have a safe and cool summer season.
Linda Worley is the director for Area B in the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary.
Community Comment is an opportunity for elect-ed officials from our local municipalities to update citizens in the region on the events, plans and progress in their respect-ive communities. Every Friday, the Trail Times will present, on a rotating basis, a submission from councils, school trustees or regional district direc-tors.

TIMES PHOTO
From the Trail Creek News in 1895 to the Trail Times in 2015, the venerable local newspaper and its staff (from the left; Liz Bevan, Shannon McIlmoyle,
Sheri Regnier, Jeanine Margoreeth, Kevin Macintyre, Dave Dykstra, Jim Bailey, Michelle Bedford, Lonnie Hart and Guy Bertrand) are celebrating its 120th
anniversary in 2015.
Newspaper grows from humble beginnings in 1895B Y S H E R I R E G N I E R
Times Staff
The source of prosperity of the
Trail Creek county is, of course, its
magnificent ore bodies, according
the first edition of the Trail Creek
News. “Our interests at present
lie centred in and about the noble
structure that is rising foot by foot
on the brow of the hill overhanging
the beautiful town of Trail and of
its growth and magnitude we now
write,” noted the paper's writer and
editor W.F. Thompson on the inau-
gural front page.
The day was Saturday, Oct. 19,
1895 when Volume No. 1 of The
Trail Creek News was hot off the
presses. Under the headline, “This Means
You! When You Patronize the News
You Help Trail Grow,” Thompson
writes that it is now in order for
every citizen of Trail to subscribe
for the home newspaper, The Trail
Creek News, and “the times are
right for such a movement, the
price is right and if the News of
today is not all right, we will make
it right in future issues.”
The price was said to be “cheap”
at $2 per year, and the News office
would be found open all day long
and far into the night, and future
readers were expected to hand in
their subscription at once, so they
would not miss one issue of the
Trail newspaper. “If you want the
news, you must read the News,”
Thompson proclaimed almost 12
decades ago.While there's no silver or gold
commemoration for more than a
century of news reporting, the Trail
Times staff decided an honorary pat
on the back is deserving to all the
people who have typed, pressed,
written, delivered, or simply read
their way into the 120-year history
of the Silver City's only surviving
newspaper.Over the course of the year, we
will actively seek stories from peo-
ple in the Greater Trail commu-
nity such as long time subscribers,
past paper carriers and retired office
workers, who have memories to
share about how the Trail Times has
impacted their lives.See EARLY, Page 3

I would like to take a minute to give a big thank you to the Steelworkers, Local 480 and all who were involved again this year to put on an incredible dinner and arrange for all pen-
sioners to have a great time. It is also a time for many
pensioners to re- aquaint with many of their co work-ers whom they may not see all year.
We have attended for the past four years and look for-ward to it every year.
Kudos for a Job Well Done.Dorothy and Larry Connell

Local 480’s efforts for pensioners appreciated
Given the determination of my New Denver GP, Dr Magier, to find out why I was only firing on seven of my eight diesel engine cylinders (March ‘15), I was diagnosed with having colon cancer on June 9th.
Two weeks later a team of surgeons in Trail hospi-tal performed a flawless three hour operation to remove a tumour of “significant size in an awkward place.”
Three days later, following
round the clock care from teams of doctors, nurses and support staff, I returned to our home in Hills.
The external support net-work from local to inter-national friends and family was simply astonishing. My biggest rock was my personal team - my wife, Natasha Miles.
The public sector is an absolute crucial element to the success of our modern day society. Knock and criticize it at your peril.
The Interior Health Authority, and BC Health Care, is in no way perfect, dogged by politics, demands, expectations and budgets.
But what I do know is that those who deliver this care do so with professionalism, con-fidence, expertise and a smile. The teams we all belong to, that of community, neigh-bours, friends and family - they work too.

Years ago when I lived in Victoria, British Columbia and manned a small office, a salesman
wandered in and tried to sell me his particular photocopier. He noted my current machine was Japanese but his was Canadian. So obviously, I should support Canadian jobs and lease his made-in-Canada brand instead.
Of course, he was unaware I once lived in Japan, so his pitch fell flat. I wanted my Japanese friends and their com-patriots to be employed every bit as much as my fellow Canadians.
In urging me to “buy Canadian”, the salesman offered this attractive but misleading assumption: Buy goods or ser-vices from abroad and you’re a job-killer at home.
That Victoria salesman was not alone in his mistake. Plenty of people urge consumers and governments to “buy local” even if that is more expensive.
The same people also often demand government enact bar-riers in the belief that will cre-ate or protect Canadian jobs.
For example, B.C. opposition MLA Claire Trevena recently re-introduced a bill in the legisla-ture to require B.C. taxpayers to pay more for transportation (though that’s not how she puts it).
Trevena wants the govern-ment to require that all “ferries, sea-buses and any other vessels used by or for the public” in B.C. be “built, maintained and retrofitted in Canada.”
Trevena’s justification? “Direct economic benefits” and
the creation of “good jobs for workers here.”
In Alberta, Premier Rachel Notley campaigned in April on a pledge to have more refineries built in the province. Her justi-fication: Alberta deserves the refining jobs, not Texas.
Such protectionist sentiment knows no partisan or national boundaries. Last Christmas, American presidential can-
didate and Fox News host Mike Huckabee inter-viewed actor John R a t z e n b e r g e r (who played Cliff Clavin on Cheers).
Huckabee and R a t z e n b e r g e r engaged in a mutual admira-tion two-person convention on the supposed benefits
of protectionist Buy America policies. Their claims included how buying “overseas” cost Americans jobs and taxes, and was hollowing out “America’s middle class.”
But despite declarations from politicians, protection-ist pundits and glib actors, here’s a news flash – protec-tionism doesn’t create jobs and economies. It kills them. That was the story of the Great Depression where many coun-tries initially sought to “pro-tect” their economies from imports; that ratcheted up costs, depressed demand, and killed off tens of millions of jobs worldwide.
Back then, as now, protec-tionists forgot that not every person, province or country can create goods and services at the same cost. Some are better than others at various jobs.
That’s called a “comparative advantage.” Combined with the
opportunity cost of an action (what your time is worth) that is why a brain surgeon’s lim-ited time is better used in the operating room as opposed to changing the oil on her car. (It is also why the shop mechanic is best advised not to perform neuro-surgeries on friends.)
An open, unprotected mar-ket not only sharpens one’s skills and makes transactions between people more econom-ically efficient, but also expands the economy and employ-ment numbers because of such increased efficiencies.
Consider this simple example. Imagine you have $50,000 in disposable income to spend but government poli-cies restrict competition where you live. The result is auto-mobiles each priced at $50,000. Buy one of those and you have nothing left to spend on any-thing else.
In contrast, take an open economy where automobiles cost $25,000. In that economy, the consumer has another $25,000 to spend: on a vaca-tion or electronic goods or to renovate the bathroom, or all of the above.
Ask yourself which econ-omy – the “protected” one or the open one – creates more jobs, including across borders? The second, of course, because more money can buy a greater number of goods and services. That means more people are employed the world over, from Toronto to Tokyo and every-where in between.
The provincial politicians, protectionist American pundits, actors and photocopier sales-man are wrong. Free trade cre-ates many more jobs than it ever kills.

Scripture quotations are from the RSV unless otherwise noted.
“And I say to you that many will come from east and west, and sit down with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven. But the sons of the kingdom will be cast out into outer darkness. There will be weeping and gnashing of teeth” (Matt. 8:11-12 NKJV).
Jesus is amazed at the faith of a centurion who asks him to cure his servant just with a word, and from a distance, for he says that he is not worthy for Jesus to come under his roof. Because of his humble faith, Jesus cures his servant from a distance and greatly praises his faith.
It is important that we also have this kind of deep and humble faith in Jesus and that we ask him for what we need if we want to be cured by him from the sickness of our sins that depress our spirit, even if they are only sins of thought. Our sins put us into a dark pit of sadness and make us feel far from God and from his peace. In this way God teaches us that our sins do not please him. But if we make our request with faith, Jesus will heal us of this sadness and alienation from God and will again restore us to his light and love and shine in our heart. It is the merits of his death on the cross that save us by making just reparation for our sins so that we might be justly forgiven, in God’s mercy, who himself suffered our punishment for our sins for us to be able to justly forgive us, as is � tting for God.
Those who have faith like this centurion will receive what they request. “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will � nd; knock, and it will be opened to you. For every one who asks re-ceives, and he who seeks � nds, and to him who knocks it will be opened” (Matt. 7:7-8). Even if the Jews do not have faith in Jesus,
many Gentiles from all parts of the world will be like this Gentile centurion. They “will come from east and west and sit at table with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven” (Matt. 8:11). It is the mission of the Church to preach in all parts of the world Jesus Christ as the Savior of everyone, and then “many will come from east and west and sit at table” in the kingdom of God (Matt. 8:11). All they need is faith like this centurion to receive forgiveness, salvation, and peace in their heart with God. When we ask God for forgiveness with faith, we will receive it. Of that Jesus has assured us. Perhaps we will have to wait a while to receive his forgiveness and restoration and feel forgiven and restored, but we will receive it. Then, even now we will sit down at table with the patriarchs in the kingdom of God in our heart, for the kingdom of God is within us (Luke 17:21).
This centurion went to his house without yet seeing any clear sign that Jesus had healed his servant. He simply took him at his word. “And the servant was healed at that very moment” (Matt. 8:13). We too will be healed for having asked with faith, even when we still see no sign that God will cure us and give us relief from our sadness and depression for having sinned again, even if it is only a sin of thought. We simply ask with faith and wait in faith for God to justify us anew and make us feel justi� ed.
All our joy is in him, and so we live in hope, putting all our hope in him. We live for him and hope in his mercy with faith. Today Jesus praises this kind of faith. And he will say to us: “Go; be it done for you as you have believed” (Matt. 8:13).
Let us, then, hope in his salvation and forgiveness, and let us also hope for that � nal day of which Jesus speaks today, in which we will sit at table at the banquet of the Lord in his kingdom in glory, when we will see his splendor within us and will live with him in light and happiness forever. This hope, based in the humble prayer of faith, will not be rejected by God.

Not since Humane Vitae has a papal encyclical attracted as much atten-tion as Pope Francis’s encyclical on the environment, Laudato Si’, On Care
For Our Common Home. In this comprehensive teaching letter, the pope urges us with language that is sometimes blunt and other times poetic to rethink and transform the “outdated criteria which continue to rule the world”.
Another aspect of the encyclical that caught my attention was the numer-ous references to state-ments on the environ-ment from Catholic bishops’ conferences around the world, as well as several paragraphs devoted to the teaching of Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew. While Laudato Si’ is given from the hand of the pontiff, it reflects the thought of the universal church. With the weight of his brother bishops behind him on environmental and social issues, Francis speaks with an even greater credibility and authority.
Although it has been dubbed “the climate change encyclical”, the discussion on climate change is only a small portion of Laudato Si’, which is really about three key relationships: humanity’s relationship with God, with the cre-ated world, and with one another.
At the root of the environmental crisis is a “misguided anthropocentrism” that places human beings at the center. In our hubris, we have fallen prey to “unrestrained delusions of grandeur” and a utilitarian mindset. We seek mastery over nature instead of respecting it as a sacred gift. We are turning ““a magnificent book in which God speaks to us and grants us a glimpse of his infinite beauty and goodness” into something that resembles an “immense pile of filth”.
We treat human beings with a similar sense of disregard, valuing them only in so far as they are useful to us. We are more interested in conven-ience and consumption, economics and power than in the intrinsic dignity of the human per-son and nature. The encyclical teaches that our lifestyle and mindset blinds us to the destruction of the environment and deafens us to the cries of the poor.
Francis cautions that if we continue to see ourselves as independent from others and as separate from nature, our attempts to heal the environment will be piecemeal at best. Healing the environment requires healing the other two key relationships; “our relationship with the environment can never be isolated from our rela-tionship with others and with God. Otherwise, it would be nothing more than romantic individ-ualism dressed up in ecological garb”.
Less we feel overwhelmed and discouraged by the reality of the challenges facing humanity, the encyclical offers hope. From developing enforce-able international environmental polices to small daily actions, everyone has a part to play in caring for our common home. We renew the social fab-ric, break down indifference, and forge a shared identity when we promote the common good and defend the environment.
Laudato Si’ challenges us, individually and collectively, to confront the environmental crisis and resolve the inequalities of human society. The future hangs in the balance of our response.

B y T i m e s s T a f fIt didn’t take long for Barret
Jackman to find a new home in the NHL.
With free agency kicking off on Wednesday, the 34-year-old Fruitvale native agreed to a two-year deal worth $4 million with the Nashville Predators.
Jackman had played his entire career with the St. Louis Blues since reaching the NHL in 2001-02 when he won the Calder Trophy as Rookie of the Year. He was the 17th pick in the 1999 NHL Draft.
He has 28 goals and 153 assists in 803 career games.
Jackman has missed just eight games over the last four seasons. He has been an alternate captain for St. Louis each of the last nine seasons.
Jackman, who played junior hockey with the Beaver Valley Nitehawks, joins fellow Kootenay International Junior Hockey League alum Shea Webber on the Predators roster.
Webber, the Predators’ captain, played with the Sicamous Eagles of the KIJHL.
The two players were also team-mates when Canada won the 2007 World Hockey Championship.

B y J i m B a i l e yTimes Sports Editor
Milestones in people's lives compel them to do strange but often meaningful deeds, and so for a Trail man turning 60, it meant tackling one of the most demanding and iconic races ever – the Boston Marathon.
Bill Van Beek always kept him-self in shape but with the spectre of his 60th birthday looming, the Teck employee decided to kick it up a notch.
“I was turning 60 and I said, 'I don't mind getting older, I just don't want to get old.' So I decid-ed I wanted to run Boston,” said Van Beek. “It's the whole nostal-gia around it, it's like the Super Bowl, it's like the U.S. Open, it's just one of those bucket-list items. I think it's the oldest running marathons and just the whole aura around it.”
Indeed, the 118-year-old event is the longest-running marathon in the world, and since the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing, it has taken on even more significance. The event is held on Patriots’ Day, which commemorates the 1775 battles of Lexington and Concord that kicked off the American Revolutionary War, and ironically the detonation of two homemade bombs that killed three people and injured over 200, made Americans and Canadians like Van Beek even more patriotic.
“After the bombing in Boston . . . I think we have to show sup-port that we're not going to be intimidated,” said Van Beek. “We
have to live free.”However, before Van Beek
could make the jump to the Massachusetts’ race he had to qualify. He trained for and ran the BMO Okanagan Marathon in Kelowna in October where he made the qualifying time by a slight margin, then he tackled the Eugene, Oregon Marathon in May where he finished with the sixth best time in his age group and beat the qualifying time by a full 12 minutes.
Eugene was another 'bucket-list' item for Van Beek. Known as Tracktown U.S.A, the nor-mally sleepy town is home to the University of Oregon, which has hosted the U.S. Olympic Track and Field Trials at Hayward Field in 1972, '76, '80, 2008, 2012 and will again in 2016.
It was also here that Nike took wings, when former Olympian and University of Oregon Track Coach Bill Bowerman and, then, middle-distance runner Phil Knight forged a partnership that ignited the beginnings of what would become the largest sports and fitness company in the world.
“The Universtiy of Oregon is sort of 'THE' track and field uni-versity in the U.S. so again for me it was kind of one of those sub-iconic places to go visit and run,” he added.
The father of three has put a lot of thought into the process. Realizing a marathon wasn't something he could just jump into, Van Beek trains daily and plans his routine and races rigor-ously. He hits the pavement at
least three times a week run-ning varying distances, intervals, and paces, combined with cross-training and strength training on the off days.
“There's a lot of science to it, and it's not just a matter of going out and beating the pavement. I wouldn't have been able to do this if I hadn't done the research
into seeing how do you run a marathon successfully. Anyone can run it but how do you do it to the best of your ability? How do you train for it, and how do you keep from doing the wrong things?”
Van Beek learned a lesson on his first marathon as he came out of the gate too fast and laboured for much of the race. In Eugene, it was a different story. The even-ing before the Tracktown mara-thon, a keynote speaker divulged the three secrets to running a successful race.
“Start slow, start slow, and start slow.”
Van Beek followed the advice, he started slow and maintained a constant pace, slashing 10 minutes off his Kelowna time and finished sixth in his age cat-egory, completing the marathon in three hours and 43 minutes. But Van Beek doesn't run mara-thons to compete, for him, it is a personal challenge, a journey to good health, a realization of one's goals, and to prove to himself that time is indeed relative.
“You have to do it well or you can hurt yourself, and I think it's more about how do you keep an active healthy lifestyle.” added Van Beek. “I guess part of it is anybody, at any age can partici-pate in these things, you're never too old. My view is I turned 60, I wanted to demonstrate to myself that you have to age gracefully, you don't have to get old.”
Van Beek lives in Trail with his wife Enid and will retire in August.
Trail marathoner qualifies for 2016 Boston Marathon

Bill Van Beek had several reasons to celebrate completing the Eugene, Ore., marathon in May. He finished with the sixth-best time in his age group and he’s headed to next year’s Boston Marathon.
B y T i m e s s T a f fIt was three up and three
down for the Trail AM Ford Orioles at the Grand Forks International Baseball Tournament.
The Orioles suffered their third straight loss on Thursday, dropping an 11-6 decision to Washington’s North Sound Emeralds.
The loss ended any hope of the Orioles advancing to the weekend’s money round in the tournament that features $54,000 in prize money.
Trail found itself in a hole early as the Emeralds bolted
out to a 7-0 lead after two innings.
But the Orioles bounced back with five runs in the top of the third highlighted by a three-run double by Chris Kissock.
But the Emeralds shut down any thoughts of a com-plete comeback by Trail by adding single runs in four of the next five innings to carry an 11-5 lead into the ninth.
The Orioles pushed across one final run in the ninth when Jordan McGowan scored on Scott Davidson’s double but that was all the team could
muster.McGowan completed a
strong game going 3-for-4 with two runs scored while Kissock was 2-for-4.
Starter Jake Olson was chased after the Emeralds’ second inning outburst and took the loss.
The pattern of big innings foiling Trail’s chances was a familiar pattern in the team’s abbreviated week.
The Orioles lost a close one in its opener on tournament Tuesday falling 6-4 to the West Coast Guns.

T H E C A N A D I A N P R E S SMartin St. Louis announced his retire-
ment Thursday after 16 NHL seasons, a Stanley Cup, Olympic gold medal and a handful of individual trophies to show for his career.
The Laval, Que., native was a seven-time all-star who won the Hart Trophy as MVP once and Art Ross Trophy as leading scorer twice. St. Louis also won the Lester B. Pearson (now Ted Lindsay) award as the players’ most outstanding player and three times earned the Lady Byng for gentlemanly conduct.
St. Louis went from being undersized and undrafted to one of the most prolific scorers in the past two decades. He recorded 1,033 points on 391 goals and 642 assists in 1,34 games with the Calgary Flames, Tampa Bay Lightning and New York Rangers.
“He’s accomplished everything he could accomplish in the NHL,” close friend and for-mer Tampa Bay teammate Mike Smith said in a phone interview. “He was an undrafted player who was a little guy that had every-thing kind of going against him, and he just continued to prove everyone wrong.”
St. Louis helped the Lightning win the Stanley Cup in 2004 and was part of Canada’s World Cup-winning team months later. He was part of Canada’s undefeated gold-medal-winning 2014 Sochi Olympic team.
FROM PAGE 10Joel Graf got things started when he led off
the game by getting hit by a pitch. Graf would eventually come around and score as would Jake Lucchini to spot Trail an early 2-0 lead.
But the Guns, a squad comprised of college graduates playing in Kitsap, Wash., answered with four runs in the bottom of the second off of Trail pitcher Clint Hosford to take a lead they wouldn’t relinquish.
The Guns added single runs in the seventh and eighth to make it 6-2 before Trail mounted a late comeback in the top of the ninth.
Gary Ortman and Graf, scored runs and Trail had two runners on base before the Guns got the final out to preserve the victory.
Graf went 1-for-2 with two runs scored and drew two walks. Kyle Mace was 2-for-4 with two RBIs.
There wasn’t much to say about the Orioles 12-0 loss to the Everett Merchants on Wednesday.
The Merchants pounded out 10 hits and took an 8-0 lead after two innings while the struggling Orioles made four errors.
Chris Kissock took the loss in the seven-inning game. Trail managed only four hits in the game.
The round robin portion of the tournament wraps up today with the money round set for the weekend. The championship game of the 12-team tournament is set for
Sunday at 2:30 p.m. at James Donaldson Park in Grand Forks.

SubmittedThe local drag-
on boat team, the Kootenay Robusters, recently took part in the ATB Financial Lethbridge Rotary Dragon Boat Festival, held at Henderson Lake in Lethbridge from June 26-28.
Travelling from Grand Forks, Christina Lake, Castlegar, Trail and Rossland, the team arrived Friday even-ing in time for a final practice. The festival organizers had provid-ed newer dragon boats
called Elementals and, after a few tippy moments, the team got used to the different feel and quick response these boats provide.
Saturday saw the team compete in two heats in the women’s category (open to all women) as well as the special race for breast cancer survivors only. For that race, the Kootenay Robusters, who were travelling with only 14 surviv-ors, combined with the Cranbrook team, Abreast in the Rockies, to form a new group, Kootenay Abreast, completing the roster of 20 paddlers.
Despite never hav-ing paddled together
before, the amalgam-ated team won gold in the survivor race and took the C Cup, donated especially for this race. Afterwards, all survivors took part in a moving “Rose Ceremony” plucking the petals from roses and setting them adrift in the waters of the lake, to remember loved ones who have been stricken with cancer.
Thanks to a strong effort on the first day of the festival, the Robusters earned the right to compete in the A finals on Sunday. Dragon boat place-ments at this festival were decided on by the times posted on
the first day – so the women’s teams were sorted into three lev-els: A, B and C. Pitted against the fastest teams at the festival, the Robusters placed fourth in the semi final and then streaked to first place in their final race of the day – the A consolation round. This win meant they placed fifth out of 21 women’s teams.
The team was thrilled with the excel-lent result and the fact that they had been able to put together some races that showed what they were capable of achieving.
As one member put it, “When most people look at us they see a
quiet team with some gray hair and perhaps a few extra pounds. When our coach (Trish Ostlund) looks at us, all she sees is raw potential – with no limitations that can’t be managed as long as we work together.”
This may account for some of the amazed looks from the young-er, stronger teams as they cross the fin-ish line behind the Robusters.
If this team sounds like something you’d like to get involved in, all women are welcome. For more information visit our website: www.koote-nayrobusters.com or call 250-362-5289.

Dear Annie: I recently broke up with my boyfriend of two years. I had been having doubts for a few months and one night he took me out for a surprise picnic. On the way to the picnic, I thought he was going to propose and the only thought I had was: “How do I tell him no?”
We had a great relation-ship, but I’m not sure he’s the one I want to spend the rest of my life with. I miss him and feel lonely, but I recognize those feel-ings don’t mean I’m totally in love with him. My friends say he took the breakup really hard and has been doing poorly since. I feel horrible about it, but I want to be sure I marry “the one.”
We have talked since then and he wants to get back together, but I’m not convinced. I’m only 21 and want to experience things myself. He says we can do them together. Did I make the right choice? Should I go back to him? -- Confused in Nebraska
Dear Nebraska: We can’t tell you if he’s “the one.” Most relationships aren’t
that black-and-white. However, we can see that you aren’t ready to get mar-ried. You understand that you are young, that you want to experience things on your own, and that you’d like to play the field a bit more. All of these reasons are quite sensible and we commend you for recog-nizing that you need more time.
No one should feel rushed to marry. It is pos-sible you will discover down the road that your ex-boy-friend is really the guy for you, and (if he is still avail-able) you can commit to him with more confidence. And if he’s not the right guy, you will be happy to have let him go.
Dear Annie: My husband retired 10 months ago after
45 years of hard work and a great deal of traveling away from home.
Since his retirement, my in-laws have been hounding him to do their home main-tenance projects for free. Visiting them is a four-hour drive, and he’d have to find a place to stay because his parents don’t have any extra room. He also has to buy his own meals.
He really doesn’t want to do this. The last project he did for them took twice as long as it was supposed to because they kept inter-rupting him to talk about their dogs and grandchil-dren. My husband has his own projects that he wants to complete.
So now his parents are mad and keep leaving mes-sages about what they want done. Please help. -- Need an Island
Dear Need: First of all, this is your husband’s prob-lem to fix, not yours. Don’t try to run interference for him or reinforce the idea that his parents are taking advantage. It seems to us that they want his company, as well as his expertise. How often does he visit other-
wise? This could be their way of ensuring his pres-ence.
If he chooses to continue helping, please be support-ive. And should he decide not to do so, he needs to be the one to tell them. Your best bet is to stay neutral. But you might suggest he look into hiring someone to
work on these projects, and it might even be worth his while to help finance them.

For Saturday, July 4, 2015 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You might feel concerned about a friend today. You even might feel maternal toward someone. It’s a good day for a confidential con-versation with someone. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Personal details about your life seem to be made public today. In fact, people in authority are aware of this. You should be aware of this, too. (Gulp) GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Do anything that gives you a sense of adventure today. Travel if you can. If you can’t, then be a tour-ist in your own city. Visit ethnic restaurants and talk to people from other coun-tries. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) This is a good day to wrap up loose details regarding shared property, inheritanc-
es, insurance matters and debt. Discussions with oth-ers will be quite intense. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Today the Moon is oppo-site your sign, which means you have to compromise and go more than halfway when dealing with others. This is no big deal. Be accommo-dating. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Do something today to get better organized. Get rid of stuff you no longer need. Throw things away or recycle them. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) You want to play today! Take a long lunch if you can, or leave work early. Meet a friend after work. Do something so that you feel you’re getting some perks. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) You’ll enjoy cocooning at home today. Family conver-sations could be significant, especially with a female
family member. Listen with genuine interest. (Don’t fake it.) SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) This is a busy day. Your hands are full! Short trips, errands and discussions with everyone will keep you on the go. Make a list this morning and stick to it. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) You feel possessive about your possessions today,
which is why you don’t want to lend anything to anyone. This also is why it’s a good day to clean or repair some-thing that you own. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) The Moon is in your sign today, which makes you more excitable. However, it can bring you a bit of extra good luck. Yay! PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Work alone or behind
the scenes today so you can catch your breath. Do something to nurture your-self so you feel loved. Self-appreciation is important. YOU BORN TODAY You have a great sense of humor and a genuine desire to help others. You don’t hesitate to dispense advice. Family plays an important role in your life, because you value your roots. You make a dif-ference in the lives of oth-ers. This year is the begin-
ning of a fresh, new nine-year cycle for you. Open any door! Start a new business activity. Birthdate of: Becki Newton, actress; Neil Simon, playwright; Gina Lollobrigida, actress. (c) 2015 King Features Syndicate, Inc.

T H E A S S O C I A T E D P R E S SLAS VEGAS -
Bragging rights are usually the only reward at the end of a well-played video game. But what if high scores came with cash, too?
Nevada is on the cusp of what could be a casino revolution, drawing up plans to introduce arcade-
style video games that would pay winnings based on a gambler’s skill at, say, blast-ing aliens out of the sky or driving a vir-tual race car around a track.
The idea is aimed largely at attracting younger people who have been raised on Xbox, PlayStation and mobile game apps
and don’t get much of a thrill out of sit-ting in front of slot machines, watching reels of lucky 7s and cherries.
“It’s certainly not your father’s one-armed ban-dit anymore,” said Marcus Prater, exec-utive director of the Association of Gaming Equipment
Manufacturers, which pushed for a Nevada law directing regula-tors to create rules for new kinds of skill-based games.
What happens in Vegas is likely to influence Atlantic City, tribal casinos and other gambling spots around the country.
Video poker and
blackjack, which have been around for decades across the U.S., involve at least some skill in put-ting together a win-ning hand from the cards you’re dealt. But Nevada’s 151,000 slot machines are, by law, purely games of chance, mean-ing everyone has the same chance of win-ning.
Game developers, slot machine mak-ers, lawmakers and regulators are betting new skill-based games could give a bottom-line boost to Nevada’s casinos, which have seen gambling rev-enue slump from nearly $12.9 billion in 2007 to about $11 bil-lion in 2014, with slot proceeds plunging 20 per cent.
The drop-off is attributed mainly to the recession and a lack of interest among young people in slots, which have come to be regarded as entertainment for middle-aged women
and retirees.A Las Vegas
Convention and Visitors Authority survey found that 63 per cent of “millen-nials” born after 1980 gambled while visit-ing Vegas last year, compared with 87 per cent of visitors 70 to 90 years old, 78 per cent of baby boom-ers (ages 51 to 69), and 68 per cent of Generation X mem-bers (ages 35 to 50).
“The next wave of people aren’t going to stand there and play slots,” said Greg Giuffria, who with his son is developing a line of what look like console video games with joysticks and controllers but allow betting. “The indus-try has to change or disappear.”
The games and their payouts are still being developed because up to now, game makers have been hesitant to jump in without knowing whether the machines would pass regulatory
muster. Slot machine manufacturers are likely to team up with video game makers in creating the new attractions.
Eric Meyerhofer, CEO of Gamblit Gaming of Glendale, California, which is developing some of the possible new games, said he doesn’t expect slots to disappear. Instead, he said, he envisions game zones on the casino floor with a club-like feel, with perhaps a disc jockey and a bar nearby.
Nevada’s gam-bling regulators hope to have the rules drafted and ready for the Nevada Gaming Commission to approve as early as October.
New Jersey announced last fall that it would enter-tain any ideas for skill-based games. So far, though, only one digital game has been submitted for approv-al, and it’s being reviewed.
