RIGHT. REV. R. S. DEAN OFFICIATES

Anglican church full
for induction of vicar

St. Peter’s Anglican Church filled to overflowing

last W

ednesday night when people came from as

far as Horsefly and Miocene to see Rev. E. H. Wal
lace instituted and inducted into ‘the Position of
Vicar of Williams Lake Parish.

The ceremony proceded under
the Lord Bishop of Cariboo, the
Rt. Rev. Ralph S. Dean. The
church was graced with the pre-
sence of Basil A. Resker, Arch-
deacon of Kootenay, who was the
first vicar of the Parish here.
Mr. Resker addressed the clergy
and the parish in a speech on the
duties of a priest and his
responsibilities to the church.
The Archdeacon said that at the
time he was vicar here the parish
was known as Williams Lake
and Chileotin and it was the
largest in Canada and it still is
today.

During the ceremony Rev. E.H.
Wallace was escorted about the
chureh to different areas from
which prayer, the reading of the
scripture and lessons are given.
At the end of the ceremonies
the new vicar went before the
altar and made the final part of
his pledge to his duties.
RECEPTION

After institution and induction
services were over an informal
reception was held in the lower
Part of the chureh hall. So
many people turned out for the
occasion that there were not
enough chairs to go around: At
this time Rev. Wallace told how
he met Lord Bishop Dean and
how he came to be in the
Cariboo.

Rev. Wallace said that he had
taught school in Ontario with a
fellow who had taught at Soda
Creek and from this man he
heard all about the Cariboo and

wanted to hear no more. It
happened, however, that Lord
visiting in

Bishop Dean was
Fergus, Ontario and a banquet

showed slides and gave an ad-
dress on this part of the country.

Rev. Wallace attended this
banquet and R.S. Dean said that
at the end Wallace approached
him and said, “When can I
come?” Then Rev. Wallace said
he phoned his wife and asked
“How much do you love me?”
His wife replied, “Where are we
going?” This was two years ago.
Since that time the priest and
his family have been eagerly
waiting for an opportunity to
come to Williams Lake.

QUESNEL—Dawson Wade
Ltd. has ben awarded the con-
tract for hot-mix paving of the
nine-mile stretch of highway
north of here. Payemet will be
laid from the junction of the

old Prince George’ highway
along to Cottonwood River
bridge.

Still 15 teachers
to be appointed

The School Board reports
that there are about 15 vacan-
cies left for teacher appoint-
ment in District 27. Two of
these openings are for Williams
Lake High School and-one at
Parkside Blementary School.
Im spite of the position left to
fill the board stated that ap-
Pointments are going better
this year than they did last
term. There is about one week
left before school_—_goes
back and it is hoped that all
Schools will be staffed by this
ime.

It has been reported that
there are 17 children ready
for school at Chileo Ranch and
it is probable that a classroom
Will be opened there this term.
John Wade at Chileo Ranch
offered to furnish the accommo-
dation for such a class.

A special class for slow
learners will be started at
Parkside Elementary School in
Williams Lake this term. This
is not a class for retarded child-
Ten but for those who show a
slow capacity for learning.

Two -new teacherages have
been ordered, one for Hagle
Creek and the other is to go to
Big Lake. :

was held in which the bishop

Well, Chief, I had him
handcuffed but he slipped
off. He muttered some-
thing about dashing
down to Elton’s for an
oil change before start-
ing his stretch. He said
“Not to worry.”
