ANOTHER TERRACE
pioncer has passed away.

Alice Jilena | McColloch
passed away Feb, 26, 1999
at Terraceview Lodge. She
was 81.

In May, 1944, Alice and
her husband Jack McCol-
Joch along with John and
Odette de Kergommeaux
were the first people to
travel on the new road from
Terrace to Hazelton.

The reason for the May
1944 trip was to buy a new
cat for John’s taxi service.

The official opening of the
new road, which opened up
the Skeena to other parts of
Canada, was Labour Day,
Sept. 4, 1944.

Alice Jilena McColloch
(Werobec) was born Oct,
19, 1918 in Prince Rupert.

Because of the flu
epidemic at the time, Alice
was born at home on 9th
Avenue East in Rupert.

When Alice was old
enough to ga to school, she
attended Booth Memorial
School. Her first teacher
was Miss Marsh, the
daughter of Rev. Marsh,
who was the first Anglican
minister in Terrace.

Once she finished school,
Alice was never allowed to
find a job. She said her fa-
ther, Jobn Worobec, would
not hear of his daughter
going oul and looking for a
job. He felt that it was his
duty to support her,

Mary was a_ very
strong pioneer woman.
She worked at clearing
the land with just and
axe and shovel.

Alice felt a bit sorry that
she never had that op-
portunity, like other young
giris, to work outside of the
home.

Alice’s parents were John
and Mary Worobec. Alice
had a brother, Nickic, who
was the first born, but, sad-
ly, he died when he was
only five years old.

John and Mary Worobec
came ta Prince Rupert in
1912 from Poland. John had
a job working for the Grand
Trunk Railway asa
labourer.

In 192i, John and Mary
Worobcc bought 10 acres of
land at 5104 McConnell
Ave.

From this time on, they
travelled by train to Terrace
to clear their land. Actually,
it was mostly Mary who
came alone. Mary was a
very strong pioncer woman.
She worked at clearing the
land with just and axe and
shovel. Ft was a tot of hard
work.

In 1937, the Worobec
family moved to Terrace to
live, therefore, Alice has
been a resident of Terrace
for 62 years.

Iu Terrace, Alice met and
married ler husband Jack
McCulloch, They were
married Oct. 24, 1940 by
Rev. Arthur Hinchcliffe at
home on McConnell Ave,
Jack and Alice had two
sons, Robert and Leonard.
Both boys grew up in Ter-
race.

Jack McColloch was born
Sept. 12, 1916 in Rosetown,
Sask. He came to Terrace
with his family to live.

Alice was predeceased by
her husband, Jack (1969),
her parents, John and Mary
Worobec, and her step fa-
ther Steve Kovasic, .

She will be sadly missed
by her sons Robert
(Paulette) McColloch of
Terrace, - and Leonard
(Paula) McCulloch of Sur-
rey, and ler grandchildren
Steven McCulloch and Julle
(Chris) Herkel and great-
grandchildren Travis, Lane

APRIL IS DENTAL
HEALTH MONTH

The Dental Profession of BC

Your child's first visit to the dentist can be as early as age 1. Start brushing gums before teeth
appear to have yourself and your child used to a routine. Use a very soft bristled toothbrush or damp

face cloth.

Do not use toothpaste until teeth appear. At this stage you can use a pea-sized dab of CDA
approved toothpaste. CDA approved toathpaste contain fluoride which strengthens the enamel on

teeth.

Replace toothbrushes every 3-4 months as old fraying toothbrushes can harm your child’s gums.

Here are tips on how to protect your child’s teeth:
e

always use infant cor seat bells when you drive.
* do not allow babies to chew en hard things that could crack their teeth.

® see your doctor right away if your child injures a tooth or has sores that will not stop bleeding or

will nat go away.

* ask your dentist about fluoride. It makes the enamel strong, therefore, cavities are less. likely to

occur,

* sealant is a type of plastic that is put an the chewing surface of molars. It makes it less likely to trap

food and plaque.

* ask your dentist about mouth guards if you or your child plays sports.
