WEEKEND 

WORKSHOP 

By G.Barry Ellis 

.Man's desire to satisfy needs arid overcome problem 

situations has caused him to be ingenious. 

, Necessity is the mother of invention and clamps are no 

exception. There exists a truly amazing variety of clamps. 

Every hobbyist regardless of specialty has seen and used 

the common C-cIamp. 

As common as they may seem, there are quite a few different 

grades. The cast iron clamps are best. The body is 

strong and the screws usually heavy. • 

The cast aluminum clamp (when painted, they appear 

the same as iron clamps) are much lighter and have less 

pressure capability. Aluminum clamps also wear in the 

area that the iron thread goes through the body. 

The last quality of clamp is the stamped steel body. 

While they are inexpensive, the jaw faces are not flat and 

they mark material badly during clamping. I suggest using 

small protective blocks when using these clamps. 

Keep your eyes open to locate used C-clamps at garage 

sales, 2nd hand stores and auctions and don't worry about 

a little rust. 

If a swivel jaw or handle is missing and the clamp is a 

name brand (Stanley, Jorgenson, Cinncinati, Wilton or 

Craftsman) you could write to the manufacturer for an inexpensive 

replacement part. 

Another popular consumer clamp is the pipe clamp — so 

named because the body of the clamp is made out of gas or 

water pipe. These clamps are popular because one can 

make any size clamp needed by using the desired length of 

pipe. 

Years ago, woodworkers used bar clamps which had 

either hardwood or steel beams for the body. Alas! The 

price of this type of clamp now-a-days would shock the 

most aware consumer. Pipe clamps are available almost 

outlets for between $4.00 (small and low quality) to $10.00 

(large and good quality). 

The web clamp is an industrial favorite. The web or • 

cloth tape of the clamp is wrapped around the object being 

assembled. The device cinches up the slack on the web, 

thus applying equal pressure to all sides of the project being 

clamped. 

A consumer version of this clamp is available locally. 

One common example of a difficult problem solved by the 

use of a web clamp is gluing together circular objects such 

as bongo drums, wooden tubs or wood turnings. 

Some bar clamps, which are now common, come in a 

range of qualities from inexpensive, light duty to industrial 

quality. Their major advantage is ease of use. The jaw may 

be quickly slid to the closed position with the pressure being 

applied by turning the screw. 

We are all familiar with the famous vice-grip plier which 

can be used for many metal clamping operations. A new 

clamp on the market replaces the teeth of the vise-grip with 

two arms onto which is fastened the normal swivel clamp, 

face. This tool is like having an extra hand; it does not 

have to be adjusted between thick and thin materials. 

Another relatively new tool on the market is the spring 

clamp. This tool is similar to the "Bull Dog" stationery 

clip but with a much heavier spring and it has plastic tips to 

prevent marring the wood. Another spring clamp requires 

a special pair of pliers to apply the unit. Shop around to 

see the new tools. 

The old hand book-binding press rriakes a great veneer 

press. This clamping device will do large surface joints. 

The only clamp that has been in use for centuries is the 

wooden parallel jaw, sometimes referred to as the hand 

screw. This wooden jaw clamp is rather expensive but is 

capable of doing some interesting clamping jobs. 

Not many antique versions of this clamp survive as the 

wooden screw splits off due to the pressure applied to it. 

The machinists version of this clamp is a tiny steel-jawed 

layout clamp. Both are excellent for the home shop. 

Have you ever wondered what to put on your next year's 

Christmas Wish list? Ask for a pair of clamps. I have 

found that clamps are most useful in pairs and I never 

seem to have too many. ' {•:

The Jack Sales family 

held a re-union on August 3

few sunny days we've had 

all summer, so a great time

Thieves broke into the 

Red Bluff Inn last week and 

stole about $2,500 worth of 

goods, including 15 cases of 

hard liquour. 

Entry to the premises was 

gained by pulling the hinges 

out of the doors. Once in 

the premises, the thieves 

broke into the locked liquor 

cabinets. 

Items stolen besides the 

hard liquor included $600 in 

silver, an unknown quantity 

of beer, six cartons of 

cigarettes and four roasts. 

The theft occurred 

sometime overnight on 

August 28.

Owners of large 

downtown areas of potential 

flea market property, 

however, must extract their 

thirty pieces of silver, and 

maybe if you don't happen 

to sell that much it can turn 

into a lot of trouble for very 

little return. 

Hence, the birth of the 

garage sale. 

It's perfect. No 

overhead, very little work. 

All you need is a garage, 

carport or an amused basement 

room, let the stuff pile 

up, put an ad in the paper 

and you're open for 

business. 

One Saturday morning 

recently, I decided to look 

into the aforementioned activity 

and armed with a list 

of addresses gleaned-from 

the local news media, I 

started out. 

I tell you I haven't had so 

much fun in a long while. 

The first place I went to I 

met a friend. .We teamed up 

and visited all the places on 

my list and then ended up 

happily discussing our 

bargain store purchases 

over a cup of coffee in a 

nearby cafe. a 

At the home of Wanda 

Tutt, she and her girl friend 

Norma MacDonald had 

called it a tent sale. 

"Well, if you just happen 

to have a couple of good 

tents for sale, why not," 

said Wanda. 

"Come and shop under 

the big top, was Norma's 

idea. My husband and I got 

transferred and we had all 

this stuff we were not using. 

We moved to Quesnel two. 

years ago and as you move 

around you seem to collect 

more and more. This is the 

first one we've ever had. 

I've never been to one 

myself. We got a lot of 

phone calls. They sure seem 

to be popular." 

She picked up an assortment 

of neatly-pressed 

WCOUNTRY 

• 

V... 

jeans and slacks and moved 

them around on a table with 

some other clothing. 

"It's a bit difficult," she 

went on. 

"You don't quite know 

what to charge.. We just 

figure; well, what would we 

' pay for it, and charge accordingly. 

You don't want 

to give it away and you 

don't want to overcharge. 

If somebody wants to make 

an offer, well fine, we're 

open to offers." 

She grinned and added< 

"Anyway I'd hate to pack it 

all up again." 

In the fine Saturday morning 

drizzle, the tents were 

keeping things dry, things 

like handy kitchen oddments 

and flatware and a 

clarinet nestling in its velvet 

case. There were some 

good-looking suitcases and 

a few kittens in a box. 

Norma was busy marking 

up the sales. / 

"I had a few things but 

not enough for a sale," she 

spoke quickly, "so we got 

together. It's fun. A lot of 

people have been coming. 

Advertising is important 

and getting organized. I 

noticed some collectors got 

here early. I guess if you 

want the best you have to 

get out early." 

In a basement suite, the 

Dykstras were all packed up 

and ready to leave for 

Alberta. 

"We are selling 

everything we can't- move 

by bus," said Dykstra. 

"It's just too expensive 

to move furniture across the 

country. What we figure 

we'll do when we get there 

is go to a garage, sale and 

pick up some more furniture 

again. Most of our 

stuff was sold Friday. You 

would be surprised at the 

number of people who 

s.how up." 

There were some baby 

items and various kinds of

potted plants resting on the 

window sills. On the floor 

there were some boots and 

shoes, a few framed pictures 

and a wheat grinder he 

was willing to sell for fifty 

dollars. 

Some folks leave the kids 

to mind the store -oops! 

sorry I meant garage. 

- We found a house in the ' 

Uplands with two young, 

teens in charge. Well, I 

guess it'does keep them occupied 

and gives them some 

petty cash, too. 

Pat Reichert has had 

three sales in a period of a 

year and a half. . 

"I'm a collector," she 

said. "I love antiques. My 

family collected them and 

I've inherited their liking 

for old things." • . 

Among Reichert's old 

things was a picture print 

approximately 36 by 24 in 

ches wide, its caption depicting 

"The Relief of 

Ladysmith", the wooden 

• frame treated in a dark 

stain with some gilded 

edges, reminiscent of Edwardian 

times. 

There was also a Victorian 

dining room 

: sideboard possibly built of 

rosewood with opulent lines 

and carved designs oh the 

doors. 

It is interesting to note 

that most Canadian antiques 

were originally 

brought over from England 

and .are not generally found 

to be early American as 

might be suspected. 

"I enjoy having garage 

sales," said Reichert, "and 

going to them. Quite 

regularly I meet people I've 

,seen before. This last sale I 

advertised for Friday and 

Saturday and Friday evening 

there were 30 people 

waiting to get in when we 

opened the doors. One 

thing I have found if you ' 

want to start your sale at 

say ten you can expect people 

to be there at nine thirty." 

• 

"I recently took a trip to 

Vancouver, and coming in 

from the airport over the 

bridge, along Granville, I 

was amazed to see every. 

gam 

other house had a garage 

sale. Can ;you imagine all 

those big homes and some 

of the antiques they would 

have for sale?" 

Come to think of it, while 

I was visiting mother in' 

Enderby this summer, I 

noticed a few new articles in 

the house. The words that 

kept cropping up were, "1 

got that at a garage sale." 

It turned out she went to 

them all. 

! 

Talking on the phone to 

someone in Toronto last 

week, I mentioned the 

magic words "garage sale". 

They sure are popular out 

here, was the quick reply. 

I remember my 

neighbour in Victoria had 

one while I was living there 

and a week later there she • 

was out there again having 

another one. 

She was surrounded by 

old lamps and bits of pipe 

and scatter mats and dishes 

and pot, all neatly arranged 

and cars were driving up 

and there were people all 

over the place and I don't 

know what all. 

It sure looks like the 

garage sale epidemic is going 

to last, at least until 

something better comes 

along.

Future in danger 

by proposals 

The future of Western 

* Canadian Agriculture could 

be jeopardized by a 

rumored proposal of the 

Minister of Transport to 

solve the Crow Rate by paying 

the deficit to the 

railways. 

Ben Thorlakson, president 

of the Alberta Cattle 

Feeders Association, said 

that if the proposed solution 

is carried through, it 

will lead to the death of any 

livestock feeding industry in 

Western Canada. 

It will also have a 

disastrous impact on the 

grain and oilseed processing 

sector as well as on such 

special crops as sunflower 

and sugarbeet, he says. 

The rumored proposal 

being promoted by Jean- 

Luc Pepin would pay the 

railways the difference between 

the present Crows nest 

rate and the railway costs of 

moving grain. 

On this basis raw grain 

and oilseed would continue 

to move at the very low 

Crow rates and at the same 

time the railways would be 

expected to upgrade their 

grain handling facilities to 

handle a much greater 

percentage of the prairie 

crop. 

"With transportation 

costs on meat and livestock 

products inflating at about 

10 per cent per annum but 

with our competitors in 

Eastern Canada and 

overseas transporting feed 

grain at 1897 rates, there is 

no way that we could stay in 

business," says 

Thorlakson. 

In 1979, the Livestock Industry 

on the prairies 

recieved $2.8 billion to 

farmers and special crops 

brought in a further 

$300,000. 

On the other hand wheat 

sales from all three provinces 

totalled $1.9 billion 

'— or only about 65 per cent 

of the returns from 

livestock production. 

In Alberta wheat only accounts 

for 11 per cent of 

farm cash receipts whereas 

beef cattle accounts for 41 

per cent, he says. 

"It is essential that all 

concerned Western groups 

join forces to resists this 

proposal," says 

Thorlakson, "which will 

again force the West back 

into being a producer of 

raw products and leave 

Eastern Canada dominant 

in the Livestock production 

and agricultural processing 

sectors." 

Major conference 

to feature tourism 

Tourism Minister Pat 

Jordan recently announced 

plans for a major conference 

and seminar to be 

held this November involving 

international leaders in 

the tourism and hospitality 

industry. 

Representatives of all 

aspects of those industries 

will also attend. 

Jordan stressed that "for 

several years now, individuals 

and groups within 

our tourism trade have been 

telling me and the ministry 

there is a need for a comprehensive 

learning and 

sharing opportunity." 

The three and a half day 

conference is the first of its 

kind ever held in B.C. 

The sessions, which will 

i 

include seminars, 

workshops and demonstrations, 

as well as educational 

and motivational meetings, 

are slated for November 

23-26 at the Richmond Inn. 

"It is the intent of my 

Ministry to work hand-inhand 

with the tourism and 

hospitality industries, to 

develop their full potential, 

to deal with their problems 

and provide leadership in 

the achievement of their 

goals," Jordan said. 

The conference will be a 

forum for the sharing of 

ideas, solutions and techniques 

and will deal with a 

full range of subjects including 

conventions, 

transportation, tours, attractions 

and regional 

developments. 

To reduce breakage 

The egg shell may be a 

fine way for the chicken to 

package its young, but the 

Canadian egg industry 

Would like to improve on 

nature. 

About seven per cent of 

eggs produced in Canada 

today never make it to the 

consumer because of 

breakage. This costs the egg 

industry about $10 million a 

year. 

"It's a result of increased 

mechanization in the egg industry," 

says P.W. Voisey, 

director of Agriculture 

Canada's Engineering and 

Statistical Research Institute 

in Ottawa. ; 

"When egg handling was 

done by hand, breakage 

was about two per cent." 

The egg industry is concerned 

about cutting down 

this loss and that's where 

the engineers come in. 

To develop a tougher 

shell, it is first necessary to 

have an effective way to 

measure egg shell strength. 

"Egg shell strength 

Overwartea 

ill 

in 

depends on a variety of factors, 

such as the type, age 

and health of the hen, the 

feed used, air temperature 

and even the time of daythe 

egg is laid," Voisey says. 

After measuring the 

strengths and weaknesses of 

the shell, poultry breeders 

and nutritionists will know 

better which factors to concentrate 

on to come up with 

a tougher shell. 

Voisey has been looking 

at the methods how used to 

measure shell strength. 

"The shape of the egg 

and the fragility of the shell 

are a problem. Any measuring 

system must be able to 

handle large numbers of 

eggs at a low cost," the 

engineer says. 

Some of the most effective 

methods now used for 

measuring the resistance of 

eggs to cracking result in 

the breaking and loss of the 

egg. That means only one 

stress factor at a time can be 

measured. 

But other tests do not 

lm 

harm the eggs. One. of these 

tests involves putting the 

eggs in saline solutions to 

measure their specific gravity. 

There appears to be a 

link between shell strength 

and specific gravity. 

"But all these test 

methods need to be standardized 

to give effective and 

useful strength 

measurements. Each egg 

can react differently to the 

tests under different conditions, 

such as a slight, 

change in temperature," 

Voisey says. , 

"More work must be 

done before we, as 

engineers, can give the 

poultry researchers the information 

they need to improve 

shell strength." 

But, all in all, Voisey 

concludes that the egg is 

everything it's cracked up 

to be. 

"It's a wonderful way to 

package a nutritious product. 

But since it wasn't 

made to withstand the 

bumps of modern 

machines, we're trying to 

help it along and save the 

egg industry from expensive 

losses."

Beath, is that with the 

sawmills employing 

students in the summer, it is 

too easy to get a job in this 

area, and the big money 

lures them away from continuing 

their schooling. 

"When 1 was young it 

was very difficult to get 

work,, but when the 

sawmills came in, they (high 

school students) got work 

and it spoiled them," Beath 

says. 

He would not offer any 

solutions to remedying this

perhaps more discipline and 

tougher times might turn 

the trick. 

Program draws good response 

>3'i 

The response to English 

language training programs 

through the Quesnel school 

district's continuing education 

branch continues to 

draw a steady number of 

participants. 

During the 1979-80 year, 

a total of 179 su.dents participated 

in English 

language training offered 

through continuing ed: 

Of this figure, a total of 

25 students attended beginners 

classes on the weekend. 

At evening classes schedul- - 

ed last fall, eight students 

received intermediate instruction. 

Seventy-one students participated 

in intensive pro 

grams of'instruction 5 

; for 

beginners, intermediate and 

advanced offered at the 

Baptist Church hall in West 

Quesnel. 

Participating in the 

Mothers and Tots program 

of instruction in "Canadian" 

English were 39 

students. Receiving individual 

or small group 

tutoring in English were 11 

students, all recently arrivr ed immigrants to Canada. 

Eight of these were Indo- 

Chinese boat people. 

Twenty-five local and 

out-of-town instructors 

particpated in a special instructional

none of it. Rosario Rota and his wife Diana, both from 

Edmonton, were fishing at Ten Mile Lake when this 

Canada Goose wandered by, but it obviously wasn't 

very hungry. 

Awards given 

for suffering 

Twenty-seven awards 

totalling $90,849 were; announced 

during July under 

the Criminal Injury Compensation 

Act. The following 

are examples from Interior 

B. C. communities of 

these awards. 

A 23-year-old male victim 

from the B.C. Interior 

was attacked and shot by a 

man wielding a gun at a 

private residence. 

He suffered scalp laceration 

and a temporary condition 

of deafness to his left 

ear. The victim was awarded 

$1,806. 

A male youth from 

Prince Rupert was attacked 

and punched in the face by 

an intoxicated man. He suffered 

a fractured nose and 

contusions of the right eye. 

He was awarded $1,689. . 

Under the Criminal Injury 

Compensation Act, 

anyone who is a victim of 

crime in B.C. may apply for 

compensation. Upon payment 

of compensation the 

Board is entitled to sue the 

party or parties responsible 

for the.victim's injury. 

If such proceedings result 

in recovery of more .than 

the compensation awarded 

plus costs, the excess or 

surplus is paid to the claimant.

Report 

Cariboo ML A A lex Fraser 

This past week in the Legislature has been extremely 

busy and fast-paced. , 

There has been a great deal of legislation dealt with and 

as of this writing, it appears that the Legislature will close 

in the very near future. 

This has been one of the longest Sessions of the 

Legislature and I am very much looking forward to being 

able to get back to the Cariboo and also to be free to travel 

to other areas of the province. 

For the last six months we have only been able to travel 

on weekends .which has certainly restrained our travel opportunities. 

I am anxious to have the opportunity to inspect many of 

the major highway projects that are soon coming to completion 

throughout the province with many of them being 

in the Cariboo riding. 

**** 

Premier Bill Bennett recently requested that Prime 

Minister Pierre Elliott Trudeau organize a conference of 

finance ministers from all provinces to discuss solutions to 

many of our nation's economic problems. 

I believe that this is a very important suggestion that our 

Premier has made and I certainly hope that the Prime 

Minister acts upon it. « 

Many of the difficulties that we are faced with in 

Canada today, and especially the problems occurring between 

the provinces and Ottawa, are based on economics 

and that is certainly where a great deal of emphasis should 

be placed. 

The question of energy and have or have-not provinces 

is being high-lighted at the present time as a result of Ottawa's 

discussions of such items as an energy export tax. 

Therefore, the questions of financial matters and energy 

matters are closely linked and it is felt that the finance 

ministers working together closely with Ottawa may very 

well find methods that would be much more acceptable to 

all concerned. 

**** 

The Premier recently announced that he and the provincial 

cabinet will, this fall, conduct a tour of much of 

British Columbia and conduct cabinet meetings along the 

way. 

I believe that these trips through the province are very 

very important for two basis reasons. 

First, they take the government to the people and particularly 

those who do not have easy access to the government 

process in Victoria. 

Citizens have the opportunity to meet' with members of 

cabinet and to provide their thoughts and views on government 

policy, etc. 

Secondly, it provides the members of the cabinet with 

the opportunity to view on a firsthand basis the problems 

and concerns of citizens and this is of great assistance in 

discussing government policy. 

During the last such trip, a cabinet meeting was held in 

Quesnel and I am very pleased that during this trip a major 

stop will be in Williams Lake. 

That will take place on the evening of September 22. 

Further detailed'information will be provided to the media 

in the very near future.

Pickling and preserving is one of the oldest methods 

of having our delicious fall vegetables throughout the 

entire.year. 

I am happy to say that through Mrs. Cappan's efforts, 

Jules Cappan has finally submitted a very special 

(and useable) recipe for this column. Although I have 

not tried it, it sounds very-much like the onions my husband's 

grandmother used to serve. 

SILVERSKIN ONION PICKLES 

Remove the skins from 10 pounds of small onions 

and put them into a crock or enamel container. Add one 

cup pickling salt and enough boiling water to cover 

(about four quarts). 

As soon as water starts to cool, drain off brine and 

cover with fresh salt and water and leave for seven days. 

On the eighth day drain and rinse well with cold 

water. Sprinkle witho alum (about the size of two 

walnuts) and put boiling water over the onions. Leave 

for one day and rinse with cold water. Then make a 

syrup of one quart white vinegar and four cups sugar. 

Bring to a boil. 

Put the onions in jars and pour the boiling hot syrup 

over and seal. Leave one month before using. 

The recipe for pickles 1 have that was from my husband's 

grandmother is for sweet pickles. As you can see, 

the recipe is quite large so you may wish to scale it 

down, but these are the best you will ever make. 

SWEET PICKLES 

,. 300 small cucumbers 

2/3 cup salt 

1 gallon white vinegar o 

4 heaping tablespoons mustard 

4 heaping tablespoons salt 

4 heaping tablespoons granulated sugar 

Vi cup pickling spice 

1 ginger root 

3 pounds sugar 

Boiling water 

Scrub the cucumbers very clean and wipe dry. Place 

in a crock or enameled pan and sprinkle with 2/3 cup 

salt and cover with boiling water. The water must be as 

hot as possible and thoroughly cover the cukes. Allow 

to stand overnight. 

In the morning remove the brine and completely dry 

the cukes and crock and put the cukes back into the 

crock. Sprinkle cukes with the spices and lay the ginger 

root on top. 

Mix vinegar, mustard, salt and sugar well and pour 

over cukes. Stir well so all cukes are in contact and well 

covered with the brine. Set away in a cool place. 

Weigh out three pounds sugar and each morning add 

one handful to the crock of pickles until it is all used up. 

Stir well with each addition. 

The day after you use the last handful of sugar, pour 

off the brine and heat it to boiling. Put the pickles in 

jars and cover with the brine and seal. 

Always let any pickle sit for about a month before using 

to have the best flavour possible. 

The next few columns will deal with various ideas for 

putting together lunches for your family.

At Bowron Lake 

Approximately 40 

members of the McKitrick 

clan gathered at Bowron 

Lake August 24 and 25 for 

a family reunion. 

"The reunion was really 

Bouchie hake news 

in honour of my husband's 

grandmother, Mrs. May 

McKitrick," said Lynn 

McKitrick of Quesnel.

By 

Vicki Nelson 

249-5300 

On August 16 a wellknown 

Bouchie Lake couple, 

Slim and Mayme Armstrong, 

celebrated their 40th 

wedding anniversary. 

The couple's family 

marked the event by 

holding an Open House 

evening in Richard and Linda 

Armstrong's home on 

the shores of Bouchie Lake. 

- Slim and Mayme are 

long-time residents of 

Bouchie Lake. Slim, properly 

known as Wilfrid 

Reginald, moved here with 

his family (parents, three 

brothers and a sister - later 

another sister was born) in 

1920. 

They pre-empted property 

on the shore of Bouchie 

Lake (the same property 

where Richard and Linda 

now have their home) and 

built up a profitable dairy 

and grain farm. 

Mayme, then known as 

Emily May Johnstone, had 

known Slim in Vancouver 

before the Armstrong family 

moved to Quesnel. 

Soon after the Armstrongs 

moved, Mayme also 

moved, with her family, to 

Edmonton. She and Slim 

kept in touch by mail. 

In the summer of 1940, 

Mayme decided to make a 

trip to Vancouver, planning 

a brief stop-over in 

Quesnel, en route. She 

never got past Quesnel! 

Instead, after a whirl-, 

wind courtship, she and 

Slim were married, and settled 

down on the family 

property. 

Eventually, three 

children came along. In 

1943,' Lewis (Butch) was ' 

bom. Then Richard arrived 

on the scene in 1945. Molly 

came along in 1947. 

Slim was, for many 

years, a well-known hunting 

and fishing guide in the 

area. 

At this time, Mayme was 

kept busy baking and cooking, 

and preparing meals 

for the hungry fishermen 

and hunters when they Were 

en route to and from their 

destinations. 

In more recent years, 

Slim worked for the B.C. 

Forest Service as a look-out 

man, retiring just a few 

years ago. 

Mayme has always been 

very active in community 

affairs — in particular the 

W.I., and more recently, 

teaching yoga at night 

school. 

The open house was attended 

by about 100 friends 

and relatives of Slim and 

Mayme. 

- A particularly welcome 

and honored guest was 

Bouchie Lake's oldest living 

resident, Emil Staebler, 

who now lives at Dunrovin 

Park in Quesnel.

worked beside Slim in the
