The end of an era at the Cassiar Mine be- came definite recently as the turn towers from the old tramline were GONE !! dismanteled. The old tramline was put into operation on May 27, 1956 and was operated up to August 1974, when — it was superceded by the: new tramline due to it's) capacity being too low to meet the requirements of the present mill. [i In the bottom pic- ture are two of the old time tramline employees... On the right is Steve ‘Rudianyn P.R. No. 186.

Steve hired on each year and was laid off with the other employees at the end of each sea». son.. He has been a more or less permanent em- ployee since February, 1962. Steve originally worked as a carpenter building forms and pour- ing concrete for the foundations of the old tramline. He then worked with Breco erec- ting the tramline towers and installing the ropes and running gear.

Taureans are sport inclined in en- deavors using their shoulders; such as swimming, football and playing tennis or badminton. Their biggest weakness is inertia and a strong tendency towards eating anything that's not nailed dow. They brood when out of love and tend to eat more when in this emotional state. _ Taureans tend to be perfectionists, expecting people to live up to their exacting standards, sometimes _ they criticize unwisely but strongly ~if standards aren't followed, and have a tendency to be the bully of their social sphere. They depend on their instincts as their memory is com- pletely unreliable. The Taurean learns slowly but very well, and welcomes chances to avoid crises and prevent panic through their expertise and stolid calm. There is a deep-seated distrust for any- thing brand new, daring, or innova- tive. Taureans are sure to become annoyed by anyone praising them for their "openness" and sensitivity and all the things they're secretly afraid they're not. Anyone who is. unwise enough to try to force you to change your mind will goad your usually placid temper into a red- blooded rage. ' Taureans don't care much about pop- ularity and fame (face on Time maga- zine, etc.), but would rather own a duplex penthouse, although they would - be just as happy in a great old house in the country with room enough for friends and family to be in relaxed comfort. Preservation is important to them also. oes They are extremely patient an practical, They are savers - having -a tendency to save everything from money to bottle caps, being firmly convinced that todays trash is to- morrow's treasure. To the Taurean, If one man offers you democracy and another offers you a bag of grain, at what stage of starvation | . will you prefer the grain to the vote? | BERTRAND RUSSELL - being needed is as good as being loved, sometimes even better. They are tenacious, loyal and loving, com- bined with persistence and open warmth. A Taurean's happiness is found in their money; if they don't owe the world a cent they're in their utopia. But the Taurean's greatest fear is that of insecurity. The thought of being in debt ties their stomach in knots. Drunks, distractions and any- one who wastes money depresses and annoys them and being taken advantage of makes a Taurean see red. They are careful and conscientious workers, but any job based solely on commission makes them nervous. Proxi- _mity to money becomes them. They're the first to ask about fringe benefits. Taureans are noted for gaining weight and many of them fear this - problem. Lots of activity (ie: tennis and swimming)followed by rest and relaxation are important for their health. The only problem with most . Taureans is that they tend to stay in bed and not come out for the exercise, The Taurean's home is a showplace for their possessions, their family being part of the display. Because ‘of this they tend to drive their children towards the professions. As far as clothing goes, the Taur- ean, being a realist, appreciates chinese silk, irish linen and denim as their mainstays. © Taurus with Aries - indicates sympathetic vibrations: The Taurean loves the Arian's boundless energy and the Arian in turn like the Taurean's earthy sensuality. Taurus doesn't always understand the Arian _ Manner or the crazy things done by them, but is willing to try because of the excitement that is brought into the Taurean environment makes it all worthwhile. Taurus with Taurus = indicates affection: Taureans understand each other so deeply°and fully that any time spent together is like being in full communication with an inner part of their own being.. Taurus with Gemini - indicates boredom: Taureans are just too selid and earthy to keep up with Gemini's quicksilver movements. The Gemini thinks and talks so fast that the Taurean only has time to wonder - where its all coming from and wish it would stop for a minute so that they can catch their breath. The Taurean likes preparations but the Gemini couldn't care less. Taurus with Cancer - indicates in- comprehension: Taurus is an earth sign and Cancer, a water sign and the combination of these two make mud. The two signs share a very sensuous, emotional approach to life but the Taurean can't quite under- stand the Cancer's panoramic ups and downs and the Cancer in turn _ becomes frustrated with a fear that materialism, such as “The Job" means more to the Taurean than he-or-she does. 5 Taurus with Leo - indicates in- PARENTING - Continued from page 3 J . ‘It is hoped that the conference will attract high interest with par- ents of Cassiar and surrounding com-. munities so that future conferences can be planned. For futher informa- tion about the conference, contact J. Grant at the Cassiar’ School. “ CASSIAR COURLER MAY 1978 comprehension: The Leo is generous, strong, warm and usually wealthy (or about to be). The Taurean loves the Leo's majesty, the Leo loves the Taurean knack for unremitting praise. The Taurean will find the Leo's lack of concern for the feelings of the Taurean unfathomable, they'll never understand why. Taurus with Virgo ’- indicates love; This is very possibly the love match that will last. The Taurean brings all Virgo's basic, earthy in- stincts to the surface. Virgoans re- spond with double helpings of love, affection and attention. Both signs are logical, practical and comfort- able with routines. They're good -for and to each other and perfectly capable of building and preserving a relationship to remember. Taurus with Libra - indicates passion: This combination has all the indications of an intensely pas- sionate, short-lived relationship. The Taurean appreciates the Libra's artistic capabilities but is turned off by their superficial flirtatious attitudes. The Libra appreciates the Taurean warmth but can't understand the Taurean's bouts of jealousy. Taurus with Scorpio - indicates desire: The Scorpio is the sort of person who gets to the Taurean so directly that the Taurus person is unaware of reality. The Taurean trades loyalty and sensual exper- tise for the Scorpio's heavy sexual and very special brand of physical and emotional excitement. Taurus with Sagittarius - indicates hate: Ther's no way for a Taurean to pin a Sagittarian down. Both signs clash on almost every issue. The Sagittarian is far too active and hyper for the slower, more realistic Taurean. h Taurus with Capricorn - indicates love: The Capricorn needs a safe, secure nest, and the Taurean pro- vides this. Taurus provides an under- Standing attitude toward the Capri- corn's cyclic depressions; the Cap- ricorn can humor you out of your blue moods. Together the two signs can build a loving fortress against the world. Taurus with Aquarius - indicates indifference: Formality bores the Aquarian and is constituted as part of Taurus’ social behavior. The Aquarian is never on time for any- thing, and is constantly placing the Taurean in positions where they'd like to buy back their ~ introduction. Taurus with Pisces - indicates contrast: This is definitely a con- flict of interest relationship. The Taurean knows where he's going and exactly how he's going to get there. The Piscean falls into any situation that is convenient. The Taurean wishes desperately that the Piscean would shape up and get his or her life together. The Piscean is sen- sitive to the Taurean's needs and desires. But can't stand the heat when he or she fails to live up to the Taurean's expectations.
