GR-0461 British Columbia Department of Education Teachers’ Bureau Records Originals 1923, 1928 13 Cm GR-0461 British Columbia Department of Education Teachers’ Bureau Records Originals 1923, 1928 13 cm The Teachers' Bureau was established by the Department of Education in 1920 and was administered by the Department's Registrar, J.L. Watson. The Bureau functioned as a kind of employment exchange by acquainting unemployed teachers with vacancies in rural school districts, and by providing rural school boards with the names of suitable candidates. In 1922/1923, the bureau received notices of approximately three hundred vacancies from rural school districts, two hundred of which were filled by applicants who had been recommended by the bureau. Watson's office also functioned as a information bureau, by providing applicants with details about country schooled districts and, generally, by gathering information on the province's many small rural and assisted schools. To this end, the bureau circulated the School District Information Forms which constitute GR-0461. The questionnaires were distributed to rural school teachers in 1923 and again in 1928. There is no record of similar forms being sent in other years. Not every rural and assisted schooled is represented in this collection. In the year ending June 1923, there were 684 rural and assisted schools in British Columbia; only 651 schools are represented for 1923 in this collection. Likewise, 728 rural and assisted schools were open in the year ending June 1928, while only 711 questionnaires are on record here. Some questionnaires are accompanied by attached photograph(s) of the school, indicated by an asterisk * in the following list. Loose photographs were removed and transferred to Visual Records accession 198405-001. The location of this accession is currently unknown.

  • BC Road Trip: Great Bear Rainforest Loop
    BC Road Trip: Great Bear Rainforest Loop Vancouver to Nanaimo to Port Hardy to Bella Coola to Anahim Lake to Williams Lake to Lillooet to Whistler to Vancouver Part 1 Vancouver to Nanaimo via BC Ferries 1hr 40 mins crossing time Vancouver and Nanaimo are both gorgeous, well-known and bustling west coast ports in British Columbia. Vancouver is consistently named as one of the top five worldwide cities for livability and quality of life and Nanaimo, known as “The Harbour City” is the gateway for other destinations on northern Vancouver Island. We highly recommend planning a day to explore each city’s landscape and culture. We recommend you reserve a spot on the ferry leaving Horseshoe Bay Ferry Terminal, as the wait for sail times can get quite long in the spring and summer months. Part 2 Nanaimo to Port Hardy Ferry 385 km | 4.5 hours Coming out of Nanaimo, take Highway BC-19N toward Campbell River and follow it all the way up to Port Hardy, where you will board a ferry to Bella Coola. This picturesque stretch of highway is chock full of quaint towns, camping and fishing spots, wineries and craft breweries, and so much more. Check out Tourism Vancouver Island for the lowdown on the island’s activities and sights. Port Hardy: A fantastic town at the northern tip of Vancouver Island, Port Hardy serves as a hub for air, ferry and marine transportation networks, and serves as the gateway to the fast-growing Central Coast (part of the Cariboo Chilcotin Coast region). The town also supports several traditional and emerging sectors and remains rich in natural resources and community spirit.

Such a unit , fully con tro llable from the cab, had to be capable of sanding and ploughing as well as retaining its original fu nctio n as a dump truck. By 1960, Langford was in production of hydraulic systems, underbody ploughs and tailgate sanders. The basic hydraulic system has been improved during the intervening years but it still uses the same components. Improvements in design and function have developed the unde rbody plough and pres ent L. E. Croft demand is for a plough for each new unit. Changes Art Cook have also been made through the years to the tail gat e sander , which now is widel y used in salt delivery. However, the ori ginal design was sound and, the quality and durability of the sanders proven. The or iginal sanders produced in 1960 are still performing from Langford to 100 Mile Hou se. Over 700 sanders have been produced as well as hundreds of underbody ploughs and hydraul ic systems. Langford fabrication sho p has been the chief manufacturing centre over the years. The hydraulic systems, underbody ploughs, and front-plough mou nts for all new units are fabricated and, excep t fo r the tandem truc ks, are ship ped out fo r installation. Each tandem unit has a front-plough mount, an underbody plough , and a hydraulic system tailor made and installed in the fab ricat ion sho p.

  • The Conquest of the Great Northwest Piled Criss-Cross Below Higher Than
    The Conquest of the Great Northwest festooned by a mist-like moss that hung from tree to tree in loops, with the windfall of untold centuries piled criss-cross below higher than a house. The men grumbled.They had not bargained on this kind of voyaging. Once down on the west side of the Great Divide, there were the Forks.MacKenzie's instincts told him the northbranch looked the better way, but the old guide had said only the south branch would lead to the Great River beyond the mountains, and they turned up Parsnip River through a marsh of beaver meadows, which MacKenzie noted for future trade. It was now the 3rd of June.MacKenzie ascended a. mountain to look along the forward path. When he came down with McKay and the Indian Cancre, no canoe was to be found.MacKenzie sent broken branches drifting down stream as a signal and fired gunshot after gunshot, but no answer!Had the men deserted with boat and provisions?Genuinely alarmed, MacKenzie ordered McKay and Cancre back down the Parsnip, while he went on up stream. Whichever found the canoe was to fire a gun.For a day without food and in drenching rains, the three tore through the underbrush shouting, seeking, despairing till strength vas ethausted and moccasins worn to tattersBarefoot and soaked, MacKenzie was just lying down for the night when a crashing 64 "The Coming of the Pedlars" echo told him McKay had found the deserters. They had waited till he had disappeared up the mountain, then headed the canoe north and drifted down stream.

  • Biographical Sketch of Captain William Moore
    BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH OF CAPTAIN WILLIAM MOORE Captain William Moore was one of the outstanding pioneer characters of the northwestern frontier, from the State of Washing­ ton through British Columbia and into Alaska where he played a prominent part in the stirring days of the gold excitement of the Klondike. He was born in Germany March 30, 1822, and came to the United States about 1845 or 1846. Beginning at the age of seven years in a sea faring life, he sailed on schooners on the North Sea. About 1845 or 1846 he came to New Orleans, where he married his wife Hendrika, and where his son John was born in 1848. He left no written records but he was often heard to mention that he was on the USS. Lawrence on the Gulf of Mexico during the Mexican War, and while he was in no engagements he heard the guns of Taylor's army at times in some of the battles on the shore. He became a naturalized citizen soon after arrival in the United States. About 1851 he went to California following the gold stampede to that country; was in Klamath for a while; then joined the com­ pany of gold seekers who went to the Queen Charlotte Islands in 1852. This venture proving a failure, he went to Peru, where he procured a schooner and engaged in the coasting trade. One of the frequent revolutions in the country rising, his wife was so frightened that he returned to California in 1856. In 1858 the Fraser River gold mines were discovered and his adventurous spirit led.

    OCTOBER, 1970 Volume 27, Number 9 (whole number 294) The long "Strand of Hair" variety (see page 266) D D Official Journal of The British North America Philatelic Society CANADA Judging by the 1971 Scott Catalogue, we BNAPSers are not the only ones who put Canada close to the top of the list of favourite countries. Actually, the dramatic increases in modern Canada, 1900-1950, only reflect what has been going on for the past year in the open market. Shortly after the 1970 cata­ logues were released many of the Cana­ dian prices for this period became obsolete. like most dealers, we have had our problems trying to keep our stocks up. However, in most cases we have man­ aged to "roll with the punches" and find replacement stock somewhere, but rarely at the same price as the previous purchase! Whether values tend to level off or up­ ward pressures continue through 1971 , we will continue to do our best to keep up our stocks of the broadest pos­ sible variety of good quality Canadian stamps.

  • Water Supply and Water Quality Monitoring In
    WATER SUPPLY AND WATER QUALITY MONITORING IN HOMATHKO RIVER BASIN Prepared for the Nature Conservancy of Canada, Victoria, BC By Sandy Hart, P. Geo., J.S. Hart and Associates Ltd., Tatla Lake, BC December 2006 ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This project could not have been undertaken without the funding provided by the Weston Foundation. Their support is gratefully acknowledged. We are also grateful to Norm Zirnhelt (Environmental Quality Section, Williams Lake) who made available Ministry of Environment field equipment to assist with the research. Lynne Campo and Kirt Shuman of the Water Survey of Canada provided discharge data and information relating to the Homathko hydrometric station. Bob Sagar and Fritz Mueller (Tatlayoko Valley residents) provided snow course measurements which they’d taken at the Tatlayoko Lake snow course since it was officially closed in 1998. I am also especially grateful to Fritz for voluntarily collecting Homathko River samples four times weekly for the four-week duration of the low-elevation snowmelt runoff period. Andrew Harcombe contributed timely administrative support and research guidance as the Nature Conservancy’s Scientific Advisor for this project. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1 2.0 DESCRIPTION OF STUDY AREA 2 2.1 Location and area 2 2.2 Physiography 2 2.3 Climate 2 2.4 Streamflow regime 5 2.5 Vegetation 6 2.6 Land use 6 2.6.1 Agriculture 6 2.6.2 Commercial and public recreation 6 2.6.3 Residential use 7 2.6.4 Forestry 7 2.6.5 Mineral exploration and mining 7 2.7 Water use 8 2.8 Fish presence 8 3.0 METHODS 9 3.1 Climate 9 3.2 Streamflow 10 3.3 Water quality 11 4.0 RESULTS AND DISCUSSION 12 4.1 Climate 12 4.2 Streamflow 13 4.2.1 Stage-discharge rating curves 13 4.2.2 Flow regime 13 4.3 Water quality 14 4.3.1 Snowmelt period phosphorus yield 14 4.3.2 Stream temperature variation 14 4.3.3 Stream pH variation 14 4.3.4 Suspended sediment yield 15 4.3.5 Turbidity 16 4.3.6 Dissolved sediment yield 16 4.3.7 Conductivity 16 5.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS 17 REFERENCES 19 iv LIST OF FIGURES Figure 1.
