Trap May Be

by Eric Collier,
Trappers Association.

Mr. Collier spoke at some
length on the trap that was in-
vented by Frank Conibear of
Victoria and its testing produc-
tion financed by the Association
for the Protection of Fur Bear-
ing Animals and researched by
the B.C. Registered Trappers.

“There is every indication,
said Mr. Collier when demons
trating the trap, “that this trap
will revolutionize the trapping
end of the wild fur trade.” The
speaker projected a number of

Search for a Humane Animal

Almost Over

Noted Authority Asserts

Testing is still being carried out on a humane trap
{that would revolutionize
trapping wild animals. if it proves successful, delegates
to the trappers meeting at Horsefly were told Saturday
president of the B.C. Registered

every present concept of

slides showing the trap in action
on beaver, muskrat, mink, lynx,
fisher, weasel and red squirrel.
All species of furbearers caught
and shown on the slides were
killed instantly or almost so.

The. trap would be cheap to
manufacture, could be handled
by amateurs as proficiently as
anyone who: has been trapping
a Mfetime. It is compact and
easily set, and no furbearer
could possibly set it off without
being caught and almost in-
stantly killed. “In the past few
years,” stated Mr, Collier, “many
so-called humane traps have
been sent to me for testing.
condemned @yery one until this
one came alng. This invention
of Conibear’s does things which,
candidly, and with 30 years of
trapping experience behind me,
I never believed any trap could
0.” ;

He went on to say that the
B.C. Registered Trappers Asso-
ciation had yet to try the trap
on wolverine and otter, but that
this would be done this winter.
He said the Association for the
Protection of Fur Bearing Ani-
mals had raised $1800 so that
the trap could be hand made in
jarge numbers for testing.

Mr. Collier extended his
thanks to Game Warden Joe Gi-
bault for handling the projector
while the trap was being dem-
onstrated, and to Mrs. Edna
Blackwell who loaned the pro-
jector.

Mr. Collier.said if the trap
can be proved on wolverine and
otters that next year he hoped
to give the people of Williams
Lake the opportunity of seeing
the slides. “The invention of a
practical, effictent, and cheap
humane trap his baffled the in-
genuity of man\for years. Now,
at long last, WF have cautious
hope, for sheRine this ety
Grall has beei} found,”

THE TRIBUNE

Largest Graduation Class

Tourist Rating -
System Revised

Star rating of British Colum-
bia’s tourist accommodation has
been given a “new look,” ac-
cording to Hon. Ralph Chet-
wynd, minister of trade and
industry. The revised formula is
the outcome of two years of
study and prolonged discussions
between government tourist offi-
cials and tourist industry rep-
resentatives,

The new B.C. system has been
accepted with minor variations
by the four western provinces
and by the Canadian National
Parks system. Outdating all
former ratings, the main object
is to maintain a standard of
classification compatible with
public acceptance. Chief depart-
ure from former procedure is
to rate establishments on a unit
basis rather than the overall
average rating. The revised sys-
tem is presently being carried
out by star rating officers with
special background, experience
and training.

The B.C. Government Travel
Bureau has the responsibility of
doing the rating under the Tour-
ist Accommodation Act and Reg-
ulations, but the bureau does
not set or controk standgrds in
any way. The Rating
merely evaluates facilities for
the ‘benefit of the travelling
public.

Smedleyville Area to Have
Telephone Service Soon

‘Within the next few weeks the area of Smedley-
ville will be serviced by telephone, according to David
Greenwood, district commercial managed of the B.C.
Telephone Company, who spoke to the Board of Trade

Jast Thursday.

Mr. Greenwood said the new
service would see the majority
of the mills in that area on sin-
gle lines instead of multiple
party lines.

Referring to the town proper,
he stated that the company was
steadily working to cut down on
the number of multiple party
lines. At present there is only
one line with 15, which serves
the other side of the lake. Of
the remainder, only seven lines
have more than six subcribers
on them, For normal operation,
the company believes that a
residential line with six parties
on it is satisfactory.

Asked about the lakeside line,
Mr. Greenwood stated that he
could give no definite promise
as to when additional lines could
be expected, but that the com-
pany had been asked for money
for the project.

Fong distancé service to Van-
eoiiver has been improved with
the addition of a fourth circuit

a 24 percent increase in stations

OTHER RESOLUTIONS

The board refused to endorse,
resolution from the Horsefly
Board of Trade calling for the
establishment of hydro power
projects on the Fraser River
without any regard for the sal-
mon fishing industry.

The local board felt that the
resolution was: premature, since

-|extensive-survey was now being
carsied-out to: ascertain whether. ~~ ~~

it was possible to develop-power
on the river. and Still have the
salmon industry.

Another resolution from Van-
couver Island recommending
that the B.C. Power Commission
move into more populated urban
areas in the province and also
to establish more hydro deyeiop-
ments, was turned over to the
board council for review and
recommendation.

Suggestion was made with a>
view to bringing the cost of pow-
er down. The Island board felt
that with more customers in
densely populated areas and with
cheaper power production costs,
this end could be achieved.

The hoard turned down a sug-
gestion by the Aquatic Club
that they might sponsor a fund
raising campaign. locally to se-
cure money to develop the pub-
lie beach. The hoard indicated
that they would give the project
their moral support.
