Deputy Minister Public Health ~
Programs.

I was pleased to discuss with you
the public health nursing services
provided in the Cassiar/Dease Lake
area of the province. As mentioned
we have received approval to
increase the time allotted to a
full time public health nursing
position and we are hopeful that a
qualified public health nurse may
be recruited in the near future.

I am planning to hold a meeting
with Dr. G.C. Butler, Regional

services to the residents of these

White vinegar is very-useful iri
many different ways.

Not only is it an old-time
remedy for insect bites and sun-
burn, it’ also soothes bruises,
chapped hands and hives.

A vinegar bath will help loosen
a rusted or corroded bolt.

For a shiny top on homemade
bread, brush with vinegar just be-
fore baking is finished, and re- |
‘turn the bread to the oven for the
final few minutes.

To open a stopped-up sink drain,
pour a handful of baking soda down
the drain, add a half a glass of
vinegar and cover tightly for about
a minute.

A solution of two tablespoons
of vinegar and three tablespoons
of sugar to a quart of water will
help cut flowers last longer.

A half cup of ammonia and an
eighth of a cup of vinegar added
to each quart of warm water is
excellent for washing windows
without leaving a film or streaks.

Boiling a little vinegar will
eliminate unpleasant cooking
odours.

A soft cloth moistened with
vinegar will clean and shine
patent leather.

And a marinade of half a cup
of wine vinegar and a cup of
heated liquid such as bouillon,
makes an excellent tenderizer for
tough meats and game.

Is tourism in British Columbia
‘a cinderella - industry? With
receipts in excess of $ one
Billion, it is the province's
second largest industry. it has
just displaced mining which, after
a bad year, has slipped to gross
receipts of about $900 Million.

And yet it is the mining industry
which has recently attracted some “
$13 miliion of federal and provin-
cial funds for research into
development. -Now, with the real
possibility that a gas pipeline
might be built across 600 miles
of. Region 'H', there is money for
impact studies on just about
everything - except tourism.

PRAHTA hopes to changaall that |

and it is starting right now by
applying for a Canada Works grant.
The grant is intended to cover the
costs of doing a study of the pipe-
line situation and formulating a five
year plan for the tourist industry
in Region 'H', the northern third of
British Columbia.
Says Regional Tourist Co-ordinator
Don Ashley, ‘Travel in Region 'H'
is the fastest growing industry in
northern British Columbia, with
almost limitless potential relying
on natural renewable resources.
