Salmon Arm Museum and Haney Heritage Village Curator Deborah Chapman is up to one of her favourite fall activities – preparing to take people on her annual tour, “Speak of the Dead.” She’s reviewing the cast list, checking her candidates, making sure all are still available, and preparing for a walk through one of the prettiest knolls in Salmon Arm, the Mt. Ida Cemetery.

This year the walk falls on Sunday, October 6th.

The air will be crisp and leaves starting to turn colour. It is a beautiful spot, chosen by early pioneers, and recently recognized for its historical importance on the Salmon Arm Heritage Register.

The grave of early settler Robert Turner is early in the tour. Working on the C.P.R. dining car, Turner first arrived in Salmon Arm in 1891. Dining cars operated between different stations during the day and the twenty-two-year-old’s run was from Salmon Arm to Griffin Lake, near Revelstoke.

Later he took the run from Ashcroft to Mission.

When Turner was threatened with a transfer to Medicine Hat, he quit his job because he preferred Shuswap winters.

The ex-CPR employee purchased a small cabin and orchard from Alex Paul, a C.P.R. cook who had won the parcel in a poker game from a Swede named Pete Parsons. Paul wasn’t intent on farming.

Turner, on the other hand, had skills. He had apprenticed as a blacksmith, but was keen to learn about orcharding. The young Irishman cleared more land and planted his first 25 trees in 1896.

According to his obituary, his first apple trees had fanciful names like Seek-No-Further, Belle de Boskoop, Last Word and old Ontario favourites like King, Golden Russet and Northern Spy. Later, Turner went on to develop the famous Turner Red Delicious Apple, on a tree purchased from Lord Aberdeen’s Coldstream Ranch. The tree was unique, producing red rather than yellow apples. The orchardist registered his new variety of apples and went into production. Generations later, descendants of Turner’s original tree grow throughout the Okanagan Valley.

The winter Robert Turner took ill was a devastat-

ing one for Salmon Arm’s orchard industry. It is known as the “Deep Freeze,” with extremely cold nights being accompanied by record sunny days.

The warm days caused tree sap to begin to run and at night the cambia layers of the trees cracked.

Record numbers of trees died and a booming industry never fully recovered. The next season, district-wide production plummeted by 75%.

At his death, Robert Turner was growing more than 100 acres in orchard. Luckily he never knew the hardship ahead. Turner passed away from a stroke on February 16, 1950 before the winter’s effects on his trees were realized.

Join Deborah for more stories on Sunday, Oct. 6 at 1:00 p.m. in the old section of Mt. Ida Cemetery.

Space is limited, so call 250-832-5243 to reserve your spot.

Cost of the program is $7.50 and includes a hot chocolate. Photo contributed.

Rhona Martin named new UBCM president

The Union of British Columbia Municipalities (UBCM) membership has elected its Table Officers for its 2013-2014 Executive Board.

Rhona Martin, a Director of the ColumbiaShuswap Regional District, takes over as UBCM President, after serving the past year as First Vice President. Outgoing President Mary Sjostrom, Mayor of Quesnel, will remain on the Executive Board for the next year as Past President.

“I’m honoured to serve as president, and to continue UBCM’s work of representing all of our members across BC,” Martin said. “With many issues, including our newly-endorsed report on local government finance, on the radar in the coming year, I look forward to working with our

executive based on the direction provided by our membership.”

Other members of the executive are as follows: 1st Vice President: Councillor Sav Dhaliwal (Burnaby); 2nd Vice President: Chair Al Richmond (Cariboo Regional District); and 3rd Vice President: Councillor Clair Mogolve (Campbell River).

Formed in 1905 to provide a common voice for local government, the UBCM continues to follow that mandate today. Through its resolution sessions, the Annual Convention provides a platform for local government leaders to establish policy directions for UBCM’s activities over the coming year.

By Jeff Nagel, Black Press B.C. communities won’t push to lower the default speed limit to 40 kilometres per hour on residential streets.

Victoria councillors argued that pedestrian safety is paramount, but delegates at the Union of B.C. Municipalities convention defeated their motion Friday.

Cities can still vary local speed limits from the 50 km/h default on a street-by-street basis, but proponents of the lower limit also hoped the province would cover the cost of changing signs.

Advocates had warned that unless cities sign every alley and laneway at lower speeds, drivers can legally roar through them at 50 km/h.

Opponents said enforcement is the real problem.

“You can reduce the municipal speed limit to 10

kilometres per hour – it’s not going to help,” said Thompson-Nicola Regional District director Ken Gillis.

He said B.C. cities need a different way to ticket traffic violators without using costly and highly trained police officers.

Comox Mayor Paul Ives said it was “wishful thinking” to believe the province would pay for sign change costs and said the shift to a 40 km/h default would confuse drivers.

“We don’t want this. I’m sure many other municipalities don’t want this,” Cache Creek Mayor John Ranta said.

“If you take it to extreme, if we keep going slower and slower and slower in the name of safety, eventually we will all grind to a halt.”

Lower default urban speed limit rejected

The light blue cover of the commemorative book is worn.

The first glossy page inside has the Florence Nightingale Pledge.

“We all had to recite that,” says Nancy Leatherdale who was part of the 1938 Vancouver General nursing class. There is a picture of the entire class and Nancy laughs as she admits that she can’t figure out which one is her.

In choosing a nursing profession, Nancy was following her mother’s footsteps. Her mother, Mary-Anne came to Vancouver as a graduate nurse.

“She and her chum decided to be adventurous and took off from Australia and came to Vancouver by boat. She got a job nursing a little boy, Lionel McKovsky. In those days they would go to the homes to nurse the child.”

It was working at that home she would meet her future husband, George Boulton, who had just come from England. They married and had two daughters, May, in 1912, and Nancy in 1915.

“My father was a civil engineer and land surveyor.

We were living in Kerrisdale, Vancouver.

If someone was having a baby, they would call my mom because the doctor couldn’t make it there on time with his horse and buggy.

She brought a lot of babies into the world.”

It was a lovely and carefree childhood. “The nearest family was a Japanese family, there were seven children and one was a girl my age and we played together. They were transported to Toronto during the war. Two of their boys were in Japan when the war broke out so they were on the other side. It was all very unfortunate.”

Nancy and her sister both studied piano as they were growing up. After Nancy graduated from high school, she worked for two years to earn money to go into nursing. The Great Depression had begun but the Boultons never went hungry, even though there wasn’t much work for civil engineers at the time.

“We were all right for food because we had a 120 foot lot and a garden. We had vegetables all year and we had 100 chickens, and fruit trees.”

For two years Nancy made money babysitting, and in 1935 went to board at Vancouver General for her training.

“We had to have black stock-

ings and black shoes. If you got a run in your stockings, in desperation you would take black ink and put it on your skin so it wouldn’t show,” says Nancy laughing at that memory.

At graduation, Nancy asked to be posted at a small hospital, and she was given a job at an Anglican hospital, St. George’s, in Alert Bay, B.C. “I was so ready to absorb a small hospital influence.

There were five nurses and a resident doctor, a ward aid and an orderly.

Once they were doing an appendectomy and I was ‘elected’ to give the anesthetic. I had never given anesthetic in my life. The patient lived,” she says. “I was there for only eight months and I got word that my father was ill so I went back to Vancouver. He had developed a heart condition.

“We had vegetables all year, as well as 100 chickens, and fruit trees.”

It was being treated but it worried me.”

Nancy got a job closer to home, at the Vancouver General.

She got a basement suite with a friend, Edith, also a nurse, who worked at a doctor’s office.

Edith had gone a few dates with Kenneth Leatherdale, who was the western Canadian manager for Lederle Labs, a drug company based in New York. When Edith needed a ride to the boat to Victoria, Ken drove her and Nancy went along for the ride.

Afterwards they went for a bike ride.

“I could talk medical terms with him; he was very well educated in that, and he was very musical, and that attracted me to him. The following day I moved to my sister’s,” says Nancy, as she and Ken had decided to keep dating. The war broke out in 1939 and Ken suggested they better get married “because you never know what’s going to happen in war time.’ We were married in December, 1939. My mother was just furious. I was only nursing for two years and she felt I was wasting it – mar-

ried women didn’t work in those days.”

Ken didn’t sign up because he was not only supporting his wife, but also his mother who was living in Winnipeg.

Her sister, May, had married and had two daughters. “Her husband went overseas and the youngest was playing out in the backyard. A delivery came and he must have left the gate open.

Little Nancy (20 months old) went out the lane and must have leaned over and hit her head on a rock by the pond and was drowned. It was terrible. May called Ken; he came and pulled her out of the pond and arranged the funeral. It was dreadful.”

At this time Nancy was pregnant with their second child. The family would grow to five: Robert, Doug, Joanne, Janice and Kenna.

Music was always a part of their household. When Nancy was in her mid-40s she was getting voice lessons (she’s a mezzo-soprano) and decided to get a degree in voice. Trinity College in England had a representative in Vancouver and Nancy received a degree from Trinity.

Ken retired at age 60 and they moved to Salmon Arm. “We did a lot of camping in this area.

We bought a house with the idea of retiring up here. Doug and Joanne both got jobs as teachers in the Shuswap so they moved here too.”

They had a house with a big garden and fruit trees. Ken worked at a drug store for a while and then for Jack Bowers, and Nancy taught piano and voice. Nancy was involved in Salmon Arm’s music scene and helped get the musical festival started. For years she also volunteered to teach men to read music, as her son, Doug, had a men’s choir and some singers didn’t have any musical background.

In the early 1990s Nancy and Ken moved to MacIntosh Grove.

Five years ago, Ken passed away. There is still an organ (which Ken used to play) and a piano in the dining room.

“I don’t play anymore,” Nancy says. Her eyes aren’t what they used to be and she can’t see the notes anymore.

September 27th is Nancy’s 98th birthday, and it is not going unmarked by her friends and neighbours.

“One of the women at MacIntosh Grove has arranged a tea to honour me,” she says, smiling.

Restless leg syndrome

Restless leg syndrome and its link with cardiovascular health Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a nervous system condition (neurological condition) in which your legs feel uncomfortable when you’re sitting or lying down. This uncomfortable feeling is usually worse during the evening hours, and may be relieved temporarily by getting up and moving around. RLS often affects your sleep and can result in fatigue, due to myoclonic contractions.

There are few dopaminergic agonists medications that are available by prescription. In alternative health treatment acupuncture, meditation and herbs like valerian and hops are used for getting better sleep.

Iron deficiency has been linked to this condition, so the right type of iron is taken according to health care provider’s advice. Many acid reducing medications reduce the absorption of iron. Vitamin C increases the absorption of iron.

Certain medications like antihistamines, anti-nausea, anti-dizziness, antidepressants, sleep medication, or even caffeine and alcohol all can exaggerate the symptoms. So to be aware of this association and always let your health care provider know what medication or herbs you are taking.

In one study, a total of 70, 977 women (with a mean age of 67 years) who were free of coronary heart disease (CHD) and stroke at baseline were followed from 2002 until 2008. Women experiencing RLS at baseline were found to have a marginally higher risk of developing CHD compared with women without RLS. The risk was dependent on duration of symptoms: for women affected with RLS for greater than three years had elevated risk of developing cardiovascular diseases Source: Circulation: 2012 Oct 2; 126(14):168994 As one ages, extra care for heart health goes a long way.

Vitamin D

In my article last week I was discussing natural strategies to avoid the flu this season, and the topic of Vitamin D was one on which I wanted to expand on. There is a great amount of research being done on the importance of having adequate vitamin D levels in the blood because it is being shown to have an impact on many aspects of health and wellness.

Vitamin D is essential for strong bones as the body requires it to be able to adequately absorb calcium from the diet. Insufficient levels of Vitamin D have also been linked to other serious diseases including increased risk of death from cardiovascular disease, cognitive impairment in seniors, severe asthma in children, cancer, MS, diabetes and many others.

Adequate blood serum levels of Vitamin D is also essential for healthy immune system function.

Researchers are now suggesting it is not the amount of supplementation of Vitamin D consumed, it is your concentration of “25 hydroxy D” in your blood serum, measured in nanomoles per litre (nmol/L). This is calculated in a blood test and the ideal levels are still being debated.

As with most dietary recommendations, Health Canada is always very conservative and their estimates are simply for prevention of deficiency diseases such as rickets rather than levels for health promotion and optimization. Health Canada suggests

levels should be >50nmol/L for adults; however, many studies are showing reduced risks of disease when levels are closer to 75 to upwards of 150 nmol/L. For a good summary and a list of medical references for these concentrations go to grassrootshealth.net and look for the “disease incidence prevention chart in nmol/L.” If this all sounds too confusing, the best way to be sure your immune system is supported with the adequate amount of 25 hydroxy D in your blood is to first have a blood test to see what are your current 25 Hydroxy D levels. Then, if you are below 75nmol/L, increase your intake of a good quality Vitamin D3 supplement daily for at least 2 months, then get your blood levels checked again. To be even more accurate, because of our grey winters in Salmon Arm, you may want to do the same tests in the winter vs the summer as the limited sun exposure in the winter will reduce your natural production of Vitamin D. Ensuring you have a high level of 25 Hydroxy D is an essential strategy for every child and adult to avoid coming down with the flu and to gain the maximum protection against the more serious disease processes such as cancers, heart disease, diabetes, and MS. The doctors and staff at Harbourfront Family Chiropractic all personally take and sell high quality vitamin D3 supplements from Thorne and Seroyal.

Health services available in Sorrento in October

The South Shuswap community is delighted to announce that Judy Deringer, Nurse Practitioner (NP), will soon be providing primary health care services to residents in Sorrento and the South Shuswap. Judy has been successful in obtaining the Sorrento NP position that is funded by Interior Health. The Sorrento and Area Community Association (SACA) is providing the space and infrastructure to make this possible. The office will be opening in early October.

Judy will be located in an office above Munro’s Sorrento Prescriptions store in Sorrento. Access is from the laneway

behind the store. Office hours are yet to be determined but will be widely publicized once formalized. Judy will spend time in the community in health promotion and disease prevention activities. She will be developing a schedule of community meetings where residents can meet her and learn more about the services she will be able to provide.

A nurse practitioner is a Registered Nurse with a Masters Degree as a Nurse Practitioner (NP). Nurse Practitioners do not replace physicians but are complementary to the work of a physician. You will find that Judy can, in addition to pro-

S•O•N•A Multi Vitamin

viding health education, respond to a number of health-related issues with solid advice, write most prescriptions, order tests, and manage most chronic health problems.

SACA will be fundraising in the South Shuswap community to help with the funding of this important community initiative bringing accessible health care back to our community. Stay tuned for information about how you can help to support the Sorrento and Area Community Health Centre.

CUPE reaches agreement

Cookies for a cause

This week is ‘Smile cookie week’ at the three Tim Hortons outlets in Salmon Arm and Sicamous. Donations from the campaigns have accumulated to over $26,355.00 with proceeds going to the Shuswap Lake General Hospital primarily to support pediatrics for such items as the Panda warmer, fetal monitor, transport incubator and a monitor for hearing-impaired children.

The campaign is a great way for businesses, spouses and friends to share a treat and bring a ‘smile’ for a good cause. Photo contributed.

“North Okanagan-Shuswap Board of Education is pleased to advise that our bargaining agent, the BC Public School Employers’ Association, has recently reached an Agreement in Principle with representatives of the Canadian Union of Public,” says Bobbi Johnson, Board Chair.

“Our CUPE employees (which includes school district employees such as trades people, certified education assistants, bus drivers, custodians, technicians, clerks, secretaries and other support workers) are an integral part of making our schools a great place for children to learn,” she adds.

Superintendent of Schools Glenn Borthistle notes that he is pleased that an agreement has

been reached so that support staff workers can continue with their very important role in supporting student learning. “I think all sides are pleased that we have been able to avoid a disruption to the school year.”

The framework agreement outlines a number of elements, including a one per cent raise effective July 1, 2013, followed by two per cent effective February 1, 2014 and 0.5 per cent increase effective May 1.

However, with the government’s cooperative gains mandate (where any increases must be found within the current budget through savings in some other area) it means it’s back to the drawing board for the school district trustees and central staff as they try and find a $250,000

Hey! CHeCk out tHe Deals in tHe ClassifieDs...

savings in this current school year, from an already tightly-stretched budget.

“We are pleased that our support staff have been able to secure a wage increase.

However, there is going to be hard work ahead to find the savings the government is requiring,” comments Johnson. “With our declining enrolment and increasing costs, we had a really hard time last spring trying to determine what to save and what would have to be changed or lost. There will be more tough decisions now.”

All school districts in the province will be looking at their budget and determining a savings plan, which must be submitted to, and approved by, the ministry.

Local writers celebrate silver anniversary

By Wendy Clay Twenty-five years ago four women with an interest in writing united to form the Shuswap Writers’ Group (SWG). On Friday, September 20th, three of those four women, along with past and present members and guests, gathered at the SAGA Art Gallery in Salmon Arm to celebrate this milestone.

Surrounded by colourful and

creative art, nourished by delicious light food and refreshments, and serenaded with piano music played by Marion Williams, those in attendance enjoyed mingling, chatting and viewing a display and book of newspaper clippings and photographs, as well as the group’s publications over the years.

Mid-celebration, attendees listened to one of the founding

members, Dorothy Rolin, relate the 25-year history of Shuswap Writers’ Group and its Coffee Houses. Current SWG President Shirley DeKelver gave certificates to each founding member and invited anyone present to speak at the open mic about past or present writing experiences. Several people took advantage of this and spoke with feeling and humour. The

eldest former member present was 94-year-old Ethel Keating, who attended the celebration with her daughter Elizsha Keating, both having served as presidents of SWG. Below, left: a display of publications, newspaper clippings and photos; below right: founding member Dorothy Rolin gives a history of the Shuswap Writers’ Group.

Identified objects

Last week we ran a picture of a ‘mystery object’ found in the water near the boat launch at the downtown wharf. A number of readers responded with suggestions; and Margo Westaway sent in this photo (right) she’d taken a few years ago at the beach in Sicamous. The person kneeling in the background gives an idea of scale.

The predominant answer we received was

that the gelatinous blobs are colonies of bryozoans, or ‘moss animals.’

While this phylum is primarily found in salt water, there is one class found exclusively in fresh water: ‘phylactolaemata.’

Bryozoans are generally colonial organisms, and phylactolaemata form a gelatinous exoskeleton which provides a supportive structure for the feeding bodies or ‘autozooids.’

Natural Way of Caring

A6 Friday, September 27, 2013 Lakeshore News

HEY, YOU DIDN’T ASK ME ANY QUESTIONS!

I took another trip recently. In Kamloops, after doing business about Seymour Arm books at Cole’s book store in Aberdeen Mall, I drove over the highway and filled my car at Petro Can before going on the Coquihalla.

At the pump I put my charge card in the slot, and it told me to take it out right away. Didn’t it want to know if I wanted to buy $50, $70 or $100? Didn’t it want my secret passcode? I guess not. It just told me to choose the grade and start filling, that it would charge just the amount I used, and not over $100.

In the end it asked if I wanted a receipt.

During the trip I found a few other gas pumps with the same speedy service, and I was comfortable with it.

FELL ASLEEP ON VACATION

On my way to Victoria last week, I stopped in Surrey to visit Olga, my roommate during three years of nurse’s training in Yorkton. As usual we talked and ate, and I tried to coach her on the Apple computer her son gave her, which is identical to my laptop.

I took the 9 p.m. ferry from Tsawwassen, and decided to wait in my car for the final hour of the trip. A very loud rap on my windshield woke me. I opened my eyes to see my car was the only one left on the ferry! Horrors!

SURPRISED TO MEET VERONICA SASGES

Son-number-one and I did some shopping in Victoria and in one retail store, we were greeted by Veronica Sasges.

Excited hugs brought two co-workers out of a back room to see what the excitement was about.

She moved back to that city after 20 years in Salmon Arm. The two of us met at a singing workshop called Debut Divas that ended with a concert at the art gallery.

Veronica is still singing, and so is her brother. In fact, Michael has sung with my son in the Linden Singers.

NEWEST VICTORIA WALMART HAS A CLINIC

Salmon Arm’s Walmart that plans to be open in November with have a doctor’s clinic.

I was surprised to see a doctor’s clinic in the newest Walmart close to downtown Victoria. The window gives the names of four doctors, but it also states “Walk-in and family practise.” When I checked with the staff, I learned that 12 doctors rotate through there.

Clinic hours are 9 to 9 Mon.-Thurs., 9 to 6 Fri., and 10-4 Sat., Sun. and holidays.

VICTORIA’S DOWNTOWN STREETS STAY CLEAN

Let’s introduce a horse-drawn carriage to Salmon Arm during the summer tourist season, and a sleigh over the Christmas season.

No need to clean droppings from Victoria’s streets. The horse that pulls the carriage with tourists has a bucket tied to its rump.

SENIORS: ARRIVE SOONER AT THE FERRY

Now that Care Cards are being incorporated into driver’s licences, cashiers at ferry terminals will have to study the licence for a senior’s birthdate. It won’t be as simple as seniors waving a gold Care Card which tells them we are over 65 and can ride the ferry for free between Monday and Thursday.

When I showed my gold card, I was given a card asking seniors to arrive earlier from now on.

BC Hydro’s ‘choices’ in place of smart meter are insult to customer

I just received a letter from BC Hydro. I am one of those who initially delayed the installation of a smart meter on our property last summer until I obtained more information on the pros and cons of doing so.

In today’s letter, BC Hydro informs me that in July 2013 the Provincial Government announced the Meter Choices Program, offering me a choice between: A smart meter at no cost.

It is noted that this meter may wear out and there will likely not be any more to replace it.

In my opinion, calling the above as “choices” is outright nonsense. They might as well have added a fourth “choice” for good measure and that would be the “choice” of having no electrical power at all!

Letters to the Editor

Research results available to public to make their own decisions

I am pleased to see the amount of interest that has been generated in the LSN concerning toxic substances found in vaccines with the past several week’s letters.

The weekly Letters to the Editor create a healthy discussion about the many facets of this health challenge. However, what I do find slightly disturbing is when someone like A. MacGregor attacks me personally and the entire Chiropractic profession, by suggesting I am deceiving the public and am lacking integrity by using information the public will not easily be able to check.

In fact, the papers he/she refers to are readily accessible to anyone who wishes to read them. The first study “Comparison of Blood and Brain Mercury Levels in Infant Monkeys Exposed to Methylmercury or Vaccines Containing Thimerosal” is free for anyone to view at http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1280342/pdf/ehp0113-001015. pdf. The authors have an excellent summary of the varying effects on the brain and body of ethyl vs methyl mercury. In a feeble attempt to discredit me, MacGregor is quoting only one part of the paper in order to prove a point - the very same thing this person wrongfully accused me of doing in my response. I encourage

everyone to read this study in full and you will understand the concerns the authors have with the toxicity of mercury of ALL types in the body and its effects on the brain. To try and draw this discussion down to a methyl vs ethyl mercury argument is absurd.

MacGregor further attempts to discredit me personally by criticizing the way I summarized the third to sixth studies referenced in my Letter to the Editor. In analyzing research papers relating to a specific subject, accurate conclusions are drawn by considering the sum of all of the parts, rather than becoming fixated on each and every part of a study. This person is again attempting to draw readers away from the main point of my article which is to show that there is an abundance of research demonstrating the toxic effects of Mercury on the nervous system.

Finally, it is interesting that MacGregor does not try and cherry-pick apart my second quoted paper “Evidence of Parallels Between Mercury Intoxication and the Brain Pathology in Autism” which is also free to download at http://www. ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22810216 Click on the green button on the right and you will receive this 41-page summary from 2012. Please look at the table on

The Salmon Arm Branch of the Okanagan Regional Library (ORL) will be open on Sundays beginning October 6th this year. Hours of operation will be from noon until 4:00 p.m.

Out of the trunk

Catherine Nicholls is coming to Sorrento and with a trunk full of gorgeous art quilts that she has created. Catherine is an engaging speaker who loves to share her enthusiasm for art quilting. She is a world-renowned quilter who spends much of her time teaching and showing her art in Britain and Europe, and in early October she will be coming to Sorrento to display some her work. The show will start at 7:00 p.m. on Monday, October 7th at Sorrento Centre (1159 Passchendaele Road).

Tickets are $10 at the door (or included with the tuition cost for those registered for the workshop).

Starting the following day, Catherine will share her enthusiasm and expertise with participants in a two and a half day art quilt workshop “Exploring the Natural World” at Sorrento Centre. There are a few spaces left in the workshop; please call Sorrento Centre for more information at 250-6752421.

page 139 of this paper. Nineteen of the direct parallels are listed between “Mercury effects on the CNS (central nervous system)” and “Brain Pathology in Autism.” Following this are 13 full pages of scientific references. I also wish to direct readers to the conclusion on page 138 which states: “Although there may be genetic or developmental components to autism, the evidence in this current review of the brain findings in autism clearly indicates the reality of brain injury in ASD; moreover, the brain injury symptoms which characterize autism closely correspond to those seen in sub-acute Hg [mercury] intoxication. The evidence presented in this paper is consistent with mercury being identified as either causal or contributory, working synergistically with other compounds or pathogens in producing the brain pathology observed in those diagnosed with ASD.” MacGregor has every right to cling to the belief that injecting mercury is safe. I can only assume this individual believes I am also deceiving the public by discussing whether it is safe to inject aluminum, formaldehyde, Polysorbate 80, foreign DNA, and 2-Phenoxyethanol into the body. While this person’s vigorous attempts to discredit me personally and

What everyone’s reading...

professionally are of little concern to me, it is my hope that if and when MacGregor decides to do further research with an open mind, that the conclusions drawn will not be too “breathtaking.”

What is clear is these letters create a great opportunity for discussions relating to the various issues surrounding vaccines. Communicable disease prevention is a complicated issue that does not have a simple solution. Considering this, many people believe there needs to be a more open debate concerning the risks and prevention of such diseases, and the current worsening epidemic of autism and other childhood autoimmune diseases. Finally, the one point I do agree with in this individual’s lengthy personal attack, is that it will always be my goal to help parents make an informed decision about things that can potentially put their children at risk.

I would like to end with a quote from Albert Einstein: “Any intelligent fool can make things bigger and more complex... It takes a touch of genius – and a lot of courage to move in the opposite direction.”

Spice of life

mallarkey

by Daron Mayes

As the saying goes “Variety’s the spice of life. That gives it all its flavour.”

Parents and teachers see this spice on a daily basis. At times, the differences we see in our kids might make us scratch our head, but as the saying goes, it is variety that makes life interesting. Besides, who would want a world where everyone was the same? For starters, I’d have nothing to write about each week.

Recently, my wife and I were again reminded of the diversity within our own home. If you have followed my articles over the years you’ll know the Junior Bean Counter has a very independent spirit. He is the third of four boys, so this independence is partially a means to survive; especially around the supper table. Like anything, his independent spirit is his greatest strength, but can also be a weakness.

The other day he was exercising this independence (stubbornness) in a way that was outside of the rules of our home. After a long day of dealing with these challenges, his mother was discussing with him the importance of obedience as she was putting him into bed. During the discussion my wife made a point of telling him why his parents set certain rules for him and that someday he’ll be on his own and he’ll need to be making good choices for himself.

While this conversation was happening our youngest was listening from his bedroom. Suddenly he appeared at the door of his brother’s bedroom, crying.

“Nate, what’s wrong?” Kim asked.

“I don’t want to move out in ten years!” he muttered through his tears.

“I will miss you guys too much! And how am I ever going to find a wife!” he continued sobbing.

My wife gave him a hug and reassured him these aren’t things he needs to worry about for a long time and that he doesn’t have to worry about moving out in ten years. In my mind, I was thinking okay maybe not ten, but let’s not rule out eleven or twelve years. I don’t want the nest to be too comfortable when the boys are in their 20s!

So, on one hand we have a child who is looking for a loophole in the Motor Vehicle Act so that he can get his driver’s licence at 10 years old and start selling Lego out of the trunk of his car. On the other hand, his brother wants to be completely dependent on his parents forever and never leave home.

I am not sure which is better or worse, but having one that is independent and another co-dependent definitely “spices things up.” If they have one thing in common, it appears they are both going to need very patient wives!

Letters to the Editor Herd immunity lost

In a previous submission, Dr. Gage suggested I leave the ‘vaccination issue’ alone as we would never convince each other one way or another.

However, persuading Dr. Gage was certainly not my goal, as I am well aware of the historical divide between chiropractic and modern medicine.

Indeed, this divide underlies the discussion at hand as the former was conceived prior to the Germ Theory of Disease. A continued belief in the now discredited Subluxation Theory of Disease (the spine is the mediator of all disease and therefore manipulation can provide relief and/or continued health) is most likely a contributing factor amongst the small pockets of anti-vaccine proponents remaining in the chiropractic profession.

Interestingly, the Canadian Chiropractors Association itself fully endorses and accepts the evidence-based science concerning vaccinations.

From their Standards of Practice: ‘The CCA accepts vaccinations as a cost-effective and clinically efficient public health preventative procedure for certain viral and microbial diseases, as demonstrated by the scientific community. The public responsibility for vaccination and immunization is neither within the Chiropractic scope of practice, nor a Chiropractic specific issue. Public health programming and literature provide appropriate sources of information for patient education regarding vaccination and immunization.’

With regard to the ‘research’ provided by Dr. Gage, it is noteworthy that he included studies conducted by Dr. Mark Geier and his son David.

Mark Geier has had his medical license suspended or revoked in every state that he was registered in due to concern over his autism treatments.

His scientific work has been dismissed by The Institute of Medicine as seriously flawed, ‘uninterpretable’ as well as full of incorrect terminology (2004). The American Academy of Pediatrics cited a study by the Geier’s linking vaccines and autism as containing ‘numerous conceptual and scientific flaws, omissions of fact, inaccuracy and misstatements’ (2003). Mark Geier’s son David practiced as a physician in the state of Maryland with simply a bachelor degree in biology. He was charged

by the Maryland Board of Physicians in 2011. Clearly, the credibility of this father/son team is non-existent.

The touting of questionable sources, and misinterpretation of facts so prevalent amongst anti-vaccination advocates suggests inadequacy in critical ability or ulterior motives or perhaps both.

‘Freedom of choice’ is brought into the discussion to elicit an emotional response by appealing to our strong convictions on personal autonomy (no one can tell me what’s best for my family’s health). Yet within a modern, healthy society there needs to be a balance between the common good and self-determination.

Broadly, Canadian citizens understand and accept this ethical concept. Regarding community health, when this balance is upset through the sowing of fear, mis-information and the emotive appeal to personal sovereignty, ‘herd immunity’ is lost and outbreaks occur. This is exactly what happened in August 2013 in the Kootenay region when the percentage of vaccinated populace dropped below the critical threshold and the number of cases of whooping cough in children increased dramatically, causing widespread alarm amongst the medical community. Incidentally, the Medical Health Officer of the region, Dr. Rob Parker, had written a letter to the editor of the East Kootenay News Online Weekly entitled ‘Vaccine Fast Facts is not factual’ in June 2013. He addressed an erroneous and misleading ‘Fact Sheet’ being circulated by one or more of the areas chiropractors that argued against vaccinations.

The attempt of those in the AntiVaccine Movement to legitimize ‘the other side of the vaccine issue’ is of little value. The research validating the effectiveness of vaccinating populations safely is overwhelming to the point of saturation. My only objective has been to simply draw attention to the fraudulence of the Anti-Vaccine Movement and in doing so, prevent opinion from dislodging fact that could very well have ramifications for the health of our own community.

Agricultural fun

The 37th annual North Okanagan Ploughing Match will be held on Saturday, September 28 at John Mckechnie’s farm on Lansdowne Road near Armstrong. There will be plenty of signage from all directions.

The art of the plough is and always has been the foundation of good farming and that tradition has been kept alive year after year by the annual match.

Ploughmen and ploughwomen from across the province will be testing their skills aboard tractors or behind horses. It may not be the swiftest spectator sport in the world, in fact, it well may be the slowest! But then that’s what ploughing is all about. It’s also a chance for old timers to measure their assessments against those of the judges and for the uninitiated to learn what constitutes a ‘wellploughed land.’

The ploughing begins at 10:30 a.m. and ends no later than 3:00 p.m. after which scores are tallied and trophies awarded. In addition to the match, there will be sheepdog trials, wagon rides, the ever-popular “Blind Love “contest for couples on a garden tractor, and you can always try your hand behind a walking plough under expert supervision!

Refreshments will be available and entrance is by donation.

For more information contact Nick Hutchinson at 250-517-8869.

Supporting impartial research

Scientists rally across the country to call on the Federal Government to “Stand up for Science!”

A year after gathering on Parliament Hill to mourn the ‘Death of Evidence,’ scientists

and their supporters rallied across the country.

They will highlight the critical need for Federal Government to commit to supporting Canada’s scientific community and demonstrate that decision-mak-

ing in this country continues to be based on evidence not ideology.

These national events are being initiated by Evidence for Democracy (E4D) – a new non-partisan organization advocating for

the transparent use of evidence in government decision-making.

“Government policies affect every aspect of our daily lives,” says Dr. Katie Gibbs, biologist and Executive Director of Evidence for Democracy. “Using the available evidence assures that we get policies that actually do what they are supposed to do. It’s a better use of tax dollars than just picking what seems to be a good idea at the time.”

As the Government of Canada prepares for its next parliamentary session, E4D and scientists across Canada call on the Prime Minister and Cabinet to demonstrate their commitment to the public interest by supporting the open communication of publicly funded science to the public; using the best available science and evidence to make the best decisions; and funding scientific research from basic science through to applied.

“Scientists would rather be doing research than rallying, but many of us are concerned about the health of public science, and feel that Canadians should understand these concerns so they can judge for themselves,” says Dr. Scott Findlay, Evidence for Democracy co-founder and Associate Professor in the Department of Biology at the University of Ottawa.

“The Canadian standard of living is, in large measure, a result of scientific discovery and technological innovation. So every Canadian has a vested interest in the health of public science, and the use of scientific evidence to protect and sustain the values we hold.”

In Vancouver the rally took place at the Vancouver Art Gallery.

Speakers for the event include award-winning scientist and broadcaster Dr. David Suzuki, marine scientist and activist Alexandra Morton and internationally recognized HIV/ AIDS researcher and physician Dr. Thomas Kerr.

Pictured: a sizable crowd gathered outside the Salmon Arm art gallery last Monday in support of this cause.

Salmon Arm - a great place to live

www.lakeshorenews.bc.ca

Not too long ago I was having a conversation with a young couple in their twenties who happened to sit at a table near me at one of the local coffee shops. I always enjoy engaging in conversation with people of this age because their verve and energy is usually quite uplifting; however, as I spoke with them they happened to mention that they felt that there was no future for them living in Salmon Arm and that they would like to move to a larger centre. At that time I had no good answer for them, other than to say that if they both were working and able to afford to visit the larger centres to attend a concert once in awhile, they are actually doing ok.

This week, as I photographed the ribbon cutting at the new Salmon Arm Savings and Credit Union, I remembered just how many of these ribbon cuttings I have photographed over the last year and a half; this made me realize the answer that I should have given the young people. Our great town is doing very well. In the last year and a half Salmon Arm has added or is in the process of adding some great new businesses to its roster, as well as implementing other great changes and improvements.

On the west side of town, of course, we have the new Walmart opening its doors soon.

Rumours have been spreading wildly about which other businesses will set up alongside it.

As if to balance the town out, on the east side we have the new Askew’s alongside a new SASCU and Dairy Queen just recently opened. Also on that side, a new ice cream retailer offers sweet relief from the summertime heat to both the locals and tourists alike.

In the centre of town, Blackburn Park sprouts an excellent new playground and turf that was well used by children and their parents this summer. I remember watching the installation of both the rubberized coating and the

turf. The organizers of the Terry Fox Run mentioned that they also loved the new building that they could set up under, and I am sure that this structure will

get plenty of use in the future even if just for parents and children to be able to duck out of a sudden rainstorm while playing in the park.

Another big change is the large new Canadian Tire in the Mall at Piccadilly. Also the new Starbucks here gives our town a touch of bigcity flair. Not to be outdone, the opening of the Staples and the new No Frills store in the Centenoka Park Mall are also a boon to our community.

Around the downtown area several changes have occurred.

Almost the entire north side of the block of Hudson Street where Lakeshore News is

located has been given a fresh new look. Also in the downtown area, at least three restaurants have changed names and reopened in the last eighteen months; as well as some new businesses opening their doors. The fountain in McGuire Lake has been replaced, and with the new lights is better than ever.

Our sports facilities are in excellent condition; both the city operated ones as well as the private ones such as the

local golf courses which are exceptional and well-priced. There are plenty of activities for families throughout the year, from Canada Day celebrations to the Salmon Arm Fall Fair, and we have numerous businesses offering youth activities including dance studios, gymnastics facilities and music instructors.

For entertainment, our local theatre offers exceptional quality plays and other live performances regularly. We also have a community-owned movie theater with reasonable rates, as well as several local coffee shops and restaurants with live music regularly.

We may not have the traffic of the larger centres (well unless you count the traffic in front of the new Walmart location while they build the new entrance), but we do have a future for families and young couples in Salmon Arm. There are opportunities springing up on a week-

With three varieties and a total of seven zucchini plants in the garden, you can well imagine that we are ‘swimming’ in them. I simply chop and process most of them and then freeze them for later use in dehydrated crackers. I define zucchinis as super flavour sponges that you can easily transform from a bland side dish simply by adding butter, fresh lemon juice and pepper and salt.

A family favourite: Barbequed zucchini: Brush a mixture of balsamic vinegar, honey and olive oil on ½ inch thick slices and barbeque for 10 min.

Here are five more recipes that you might like to try.

Spaghetti noodles: A no brainer if you want to eat more veggies and less carbs. Carve the zucchini lengthwise with a julienne hand slicer or a mandolin that has the julienne attachment. A potato peeler will do the job just fine too! Simply serve with a hot pasta sauce, with or without cheese or an Asian peanut sauce. Imagine a noodle-y topping for your salad. You’ll be surprised at how quickly the noodles soften and take on the dressing flavour.

Zucchini boats: Cut 6” long zucc’s in half lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds and fill the boat with pasta sauce or fresh salsa. Add a layer of caramelized sweet onions, mushrooms (optional), and top with feta or mozzarella cheese. Bake until tender. You can use pattypan squashes for a lovely decorative presentation with the same filling.

Liquid gold dressing: 1 cup peeled and cubed zucchini, ¼ c. freshly squeezed lemon juice, ¼ c. nutritional yeast flakes, 2 tbsp. flaxseed oil, 2 tbsp. soya sauce, 1 tsp. Dijon mustard. 1 tsp honey, ½ tsp. cumin, ½ tsp. crushed garlic. Blend until smooth.

Honey mustard zucchini chips: Mix ¼ c. of Dijon mustard with ¼ cup plus 2 tbsp. honey. 1 tsp. lemon juice, 1/8 tsp. cayenne. Pour this over 6-8 cups of 1/8th inch thin zucchini slices. Use a mandolin. No need to peel either golden or green or striped zucchinis.

Pour the dressing over the slices and mess them up and around with hands and fingers until all are fairly well covered with the dressing. I imagine that you could bake these in the oven (add some oil if you do). I simply spread these veggie rounds on a screen in the dehydrator. Dry until crisp and store in an airtight container. This marinade is also lovely on thinly sliced golden or red beets.

Zucchini walnut crisps: 5 cups of cut up zucchini, 5 cups of walnuts, ¼ cup flax seeds, finely ground, ½ cup hemp seeds, ¼ to ½ cup of water. 1 tbsp. sea salt. (cayenne anyone?) Add a clove of garlic or two if you fancy the extra immune booster. Blend the zucchini, flax, salt and hemp seeds until liquid in your food processor or blender. Add the chopped walnuts and pulse a few times. Spread or pour this “dough” on a non-stick sheet and dehydrate until fairly dry. Peel the crackers off the sheet and flip them over halfway through. Finish drying on a mesh sheet. You can also “score” the crackers with a knife to your desired size and shape at this time or cut them when the crackers are fully dry and crisp.

There you have it. No more zucchini offerings for your friends! I bet they will enjoy the chips, though.

With three varieties and a total of seven zucchini plants in the garden, you can well imagine that we are ‘swimming’ in them. I simply chop and process most of them and then freeze them for later use in dehydrated crackers. I define zucchinis as super flavour sponges that you can easily transform from a bland side dish simply by adding butter, fresh lemon juice and pepper and salt.

A family favourite: Barbequed zucchini: Brush a mixture of balsamic vinegar, honey and olive oil on ½ inch thick slices and barbeque for 10 min.

Here are five more recipes that you might like to try.

Spaghetti noodles: A no brainer if you want to eat more veggies and less carbs. Carve the zucchini lengthwise with a julienne hand slicer or a mandolin that has the julienne attachment. A potato peeler will do the job just fine too! Simply serve with a hot pasta sauce, with or without cheese or an Asian peanut sauce. Imagine a noodle-y topping for your salad. You’ll be surprised at how quickly the noodles soften and take on the dressing flavour.

Zucchini boats: Cut 6” long zucc’s in half lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds and fill the boat with pasta sauce or fresh salsa. Add a layer of caramelized sweet onions, mushrooms (optional), and top with feta or mozzarella cheese. Bake until tender. You can use pattypan squashes for a lovely decorative presentation with the same filling.

Liquid gold dressing: 1 cup peeled and cubed zucchini, ¼ c. freshly squeezed lemon juice, ¼ c. nutritional yeast flakes, 2 tbsp. flaxseed oil, 2 tbsp. soya sauce, 1 tsp. Dijon mustard. 1 tsp honey, ½ tsp. cumin, ½ tsp. crushed garlic. Blend until smooth.

Honey mustard zucchini chips: Mix ¼ c. of Dijon mustard with ¼ cup plus 2 tbsp. honey. 1 tsp. lemon juice, 1/8 tsp. cayenne. Pour this over 6-8 cups of 1/8th inch thin zucchini slices. Use a mandolin. No need to peel either golden or green or striped zucchinis.

Pour the dressing over the slices and mess them up and around with hands and fingers until all are fairly well covered with the dressing. I imagine that you could bake these in the oven (add some oil if you do). I simply spread these veggie rounds on a screen in the dehydrator. Dry until crisp and store in an airtight container. This marinade is also lovely on thinly sliced golden or red beets.

Zucchini walnut crisps: 5 cups of cut up zucchini, 5 cups of walnuts, ¼ cup flax seeds, finely ground, ½ cup hemp seeds, ¼ to ½ cup of water. 1 tbsp. sea salt. (cayenne anyone?) Add a clove of garlic or two if you fancy the extra immune booster. Blend the zucchini, flax, salt and hemp seeds until liquid in your food processor or blender. Add the chopped walnuts and pulse a few times. Spread or pour this “dough” on a non-stick sheet and dehydrate until fairly dry. Peel the crackers off the sheet and flip them over halfway through. Finish drying on a mesh sheet. You can also “score” the crackers with a knife to your desired size and shape at this time or cut them when the crackers are fully dry and crisp.

There you have it. No more zucchini offerings for your friends! I bet they will enjoy the chips, though.

A pole for peace

MAKE YARD WORK

On Saturday, September 21st, in celebration of the International Day of Peace, a peace pole was ‘planted’ at Marine Peace Park, near the Salmon Arm wharf. It was made locally and has the words ‘May Peace Prevail On Earth,’ in four languages: Japanese, Secwepemc, French and English.

Local dignitaries were present for the ceremony. Members of St. Joseph’s Catholic Church had organized and fundraised for the

pole to be erected in town. They approached City Council and got approval to put one at the waterfront. Another one of the poles was installed at the church.

The Peace Pole Project is the official Project of The World Peace Prayer Society. It started in Japan in 1955

by Masahisa Goi, who decided to dedicate his life to spreading the message, “May Peace Prevail on Earth” in response to the bombings on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

Mr. Goi came to be respected as a great master throughout Japan and his ideals for peace on Earth gained much support. He started to spread his message in small neighbourhood gatherings.

These gatherings grew

larger in numbers throughout Japan and the movement started to gain momentum.

At present count, there are more than 250,000 peace poles installed around the world. Peace-lovers of all faiths have been involved in peace pole dedications, including the XIV Dalai Lama and Mother Teresa.

Pictured: From left, Father George LaGrange, Eiko Uehara, two of the people who helped dedicate the new peace pole in Rotary Marine Park stand alongside Katrina Weiker and Claire Hall, two of the grade seven students that took on the project of erecting the pole along with its twin at the Catholic Church in Salmon Arm.

DesignDilemmas

Door swings

Making sure you have enough room for your doors to function is an important part of designing a space. A wonderful door looses its panache if it bangs into the back of the sofa, or if there isn’t room for someone to pass by while the door is open. Avoid the problem by knowing how much room a door requires and plan accordingly.

Hinged door swings: Measure the width of the door. Allow this amount of space in front of the door and against the wall where the door rests when fully opened. This is the minimum space the door requires for full function. If the door opens into a hallway, add 36 inches of maneuvering space in front of the door and at least 6 inches on the wall. This accommodates people passing in the hall while the door is being opened. If the door opens onto a landing, such as an outside door, or door at the top of a staircase, it is helpful to add 24 inches for safety concerns.

Double swinging doors: Double swinging doors– sometimes referred to as saloon doors–require half the width of the door both in front and behind the door for operation. Add 36 inches in both directions for ease of traffic flow. For example, if the door overall width is 48 inches, the door requires a minimum of 24 inches in front and behind the door for operation, but for optimal operation, allow 60 inches to the front and to the back.

Sliding doors: Sliding doors, or pocket doors, do not require any swing room, but do require space both in front and behind the door to allow for people moving in and out of the room. If the door allows people to move through (as opposed to a sliding closet door), allow an additional 36 inches of free space on the other side.

French doors: Each side of the French door requires its width in door swing to the front of the door. It also requires this same distance as adjacent wall space if the door rests against the wall after opening. Allow an additional 36 inches in front of each door for people movement. Some French door systems have one door installed as an inoperable door, meaning it does not open–it is permanently in the closed position. You need not allow for door swing against the wall for these doors. Because they present the appearance that they open, you should allow the same space for door swing and traffic flow as if it functioned.

SPORTS & LEISURE Kids - try a triathlon!

The 9th Annual Salmon Arm Kids’ Try-a-Tri Triathlon is taking place this coming weekend. On Sunday, September 29th starting at 9:00 a.m., over 60 participants will be swimming, biking and running on the streets around the SASCU Community Centre. It is a fun event; one that the participants look forward to each year.

Racers from ages 4 through 16 participate in the event; for many, it is their first experience in triathlon. Last year, there were over 25 participants in the ‘7 and under’ category.

“It is so inspiring watching these young athletes enjoying triathlon,” comments race director Tiffany Lombaert. “I have been organizing this event for four years now and the kids’ tri is one of my favourite days of the year. I love watching kids having fun and smiling throughout the whole event.”

Of course, an event like this cannot happen without the support of the community. “It takes over 40 volun-

teers to make this race a success. I couldn’t do it with my wonderful volunteers,” notes Lombaert. “We are always looking for more volunteers.” If you want to help out, please contact Tiffany at tslombaert@hotmail.com.

On-site registration and bike inspection will take place Saturday afternoon at Trailheads Cycle &Ski (1860 22nd St NE) from 4:00– 5:30 p.m. This is when racers can pick up their race packages as well.

Lombaert encourages any kids to come try out the sport of triathlon. “This is a fun event and we try to accommodate to all level of racers. Many younger racers wear life jackets or use a kickboard for the swim, and we have an ‘assisted’ transition area where parents can help out. We want this to be a positive experience for kids.”

Also, all entrants have the chance to win a 2013 Asama Talus Mtn Bike from Trailheads Cycle & Ski. For more information, please visit www. salmonarmtriathlon.com.

Danny’s first deer hunt

It was to be his very first deer hunt. But fate had other plans.

Fourteen-year-old Danny glanced out the old farmhouse door in the dark to look up at the moon. It was just a silver sliver, with a large hazy circle around it; a hunter’s moon, he thought, as he headed upstairs to bed. Uncle Jedd would be coming over before daybreak to take him on his first deer hunt. The moon phase was one thing Uncle had taught him; on a full moon, animals will wander about, feeding and bedding at will. In contrast, during the dark phase, they will be more active during daylight hours–a great chance for that ol’ set of mossy horns!

Uncle Jedd arrived before daybreak, and over breakfast, they devised a plan. A big buck had been seen on occasion way down at the edge of their alfalfa field.

Now, Uncle Jedd would be guide.

Danny would use Dad’s ol .303 Lee-Enfield. Starting out, they stayed on the inside of the timber in hopes of spotting the big buck.

Dawn, with a heavy sky was just breaking. Slowly making their way along, and glancing out in the field, they saw the buck standing there, slowly feeding. Uncle Jedd whispered, “Take your time now, then fire.” Raising the .303, Danny took aim. At the report, the buck slowly made its way to the fence; Danny’s ears ringing from the sound of the shot! Uncle Jedd said,”Try again.” Raising the gun once more, Danny fired. Nothing.

There was a dull thud. Rasping, in a quick whisper, Uncle reached for the .303, cursing the old ammunition. He lined up, and shot. The big buck flinched, then bailed over the fence, disappearing into the thicket.

Uncle Jedd then placed a hand on Danny’s shoulder, with a look into his eyes. A moment of hunter

emotion and understanding, only those who love the outdoors know!

Heading over to where the animal stood, both spotted a drop of blood, just as the rain began to fall. Slowly making their way along, they continued to check for any sign. It was going on 10 a.m. as they circled and searched.

Danny was filled with emotion, visualizing that big buck in his mind’s eye.

Dressing the animal, then bringing the tractor down the field to load the animal, to be hung later in the barn.

Now, Uncle Jedd said to watch carefully for any sign of movement, as the rain fell harder, and they made their way along a well worn deer trail, heading downhill into a ravine. Suddenly, a shot rang out, and Danny’s heart sank.

Reaching the bottom of the draw, they observed a hunter in an orange vest, slowly making his way toward a handsome big buck he had downed. Walking up now, Danny glanced down, to see a crease along the buck’s left shoulder.

They congratulated the other hunter on his success, then helped dress the animal, and load it into his pickup. Slowly making their way back up the alfalfa field, as the sun now broke onto a brilliant noon sky, they got to the farmhouse. Uncle Jed placed his hands on Danny’s shoulders and they stood in silence for a few moments. Nothing was ever said again about that first fateful day!

But, since that day, Danny and Uncle Jedd had many wonderful autumns hunting together, harvesting a good number of fine bucks. Maybe Uncle Jedd got

by Hank Shelley over that fateful day on Danny’s first deer hunt. Danny hoped so, and someday, he would too.

Many of us can recall our first case of “buck fever” with the jitters, sweats, and excitement.

Later, we realize that our mistakes then helped make us the better, ethical hunters we are today.

Here and there in the Shuswap

For some ridiculous reason, the spiny ray perch bucket brigade just doesn’t get it. Again this past spring, the invasive species was found in two small lakes, high in the Larch Hills area. The Ministry of Environment, in Kamloops, who in the past had the very expensive and arduous task of ridding nine interior lakes of this prolific species, contacted members of the Salmon Arm fish and game club. Always up to the challenge to protect our fish and wildlife, a crew was formed to cut a trail to the lakes, so equipment could be brought in to treat both.

A widened trail was chainsawed in about half a mile. Then, both lakes were treated with rotenone, just last Wednesday.

Fishing report; Fall fishing our local lakes can be rewarding for ardent anglers. Best bets for fat rainbows are Dry (Skimikin), White, Miller, and lakes in the Falkland area.

Hunting: while I was bucking up some firewood last Sunday, on the 112 Road (Larch Hills), several hunters drove past. There are lots of hunters out there. Success will increase when leaves begin to fall, and the rut begins for both moose and deer. Antlerless whitetail deer season begins October 10th, going to October 31, same as Region # 8. Please report any illegal activity, at 1-877-952Rapp (7277).

Our wildlife belongs to all British Columbians!

Don’t get too hung up if your week is all work and little play. While your schedule might be hectic in the coming days, some relaxation time will arrive this weekend.

SUDOKU

Pisces, make the most of new opportunities that present themselves this week. The effort you put in will pay off in due time.

ARIES

A blue mood is nothing to worry about, Aries. It is just your body telling you that you may need to slow down a bit. Take heed and you’ll recharge in no time.

TAURUS

Taurus, you are beginning a contemplative phase of life right now, but you won’t have to sacrifice your social life to do so. Take a few days off from socializing and then return.

GEMINI

Try to avoid any deep conversations or controversial topics this week, Gemini. Right now it’s best if you focus on more trivial matters and enjoy yourself.

CANCER

Cancer, give yourself more time to figure everything out if you are feeling indecisive about someone. Don’t forge ahead without feeling entirely comfortable with the person.

LEO

Leo, don’t drop everything you’re working on to address a developing issue at home. Others can handle the situation just as well as you, so keep your focus on preexisting tasks at hand.

VIRGO

Virgo, listen to friends and family members when they encourage you to try something new this week. Trust your instincts, as they seldom turn you in the wrong direction.

LIBRA

You have no time for gossip this week, Libra.

Your plate is already full at work and at home, so avoid getting caught up in anything that compromises your focus.

Thomas Harris Tom passed away in Salmon Arm on September 7th after a brief battle with cancer.

He leaves to mourn, his three children Linda (Bob) Humphries, Liz Twyman and Bill Harris, also a grandson, Luke Twyman, all in England.

He will be fondly remembered by all his friends in the communities of Grindrod and Enderby where he spent his last years. Tom was born to Martha Ellen and Ernest Beverly Harris on September 4, 1921 in Penticton. From a very early age he developed a love for the bush. Although a good hunter, he enjoyed fishing and backpacking the most. He always had a ready-pack handy so when a trail beckoned, he was off. He walked everyday until just before his death. He was a talented man with a camera, brush and various instruments. But most of all, Tom was a true gentleman. He had a smile and kind word for anyone who crossed his path. Being around Tom was like enjoying a good book. His life had been so full and varied. He loved to say "I am happy inside, I've lived a good life and I've lived it the way I wanted". Tom served on the front lines in Europe from 1941 to 1945. After a year and a half back home he chose to return to England in 1947. He made a few trips to BC over the years but did not return to stay until 1997 at the age of 76. He was predeceased by his parents, two sisters, three wives and a son. Tom requested there be no funeral and has donated his body for research. A Celebration of Life Tea will be held in Grindrod at a time to be announced.

Kenneth Pesch Ken passed away at the age of 95 on September 15, 2013 at Bastion Place in Salmon arm after complications from hip surgery.

Ken was born September 27, 1917 in Venice California. He graduated from Beverly Hills High School in 1936 and went to work for the US Army Corps of Engineers War Department in 1937 as a surveyor. In 1944 Ken was working in Edmonton on the construction of the Namao Air Force Base. It was at this time that he met Honor. They were married in June of 1944 and were together for 65 years. Ken joined the US Army in 1945 and was stationed in the Philippines with the occupational forces.

Ken and Honor moved to Canoe in 1946. Ken worked for Federated Co-op for 20 years until his retirement in 1973.

They moved across the lake then and spent their summers on the Shuswap and their winters in warmer climates.

Ken was predeceased by his wife Honor in 2010 and by his daughter Frances in 2011.

Don Dunn Donald Edwin Dunn passed away peacefully at Salmon Arm, BC on September 19, 2013 at the age of 83 years.

Don was born in Racine, Wisconsin, USA on March 7, 1930. Don worked in the oil fields in various locations in Alberta, where he and his wife Inez raised their three young children.

Don, with his late wife Inez, fulfilled their dream of a future life in Salmon Arm by relocating in July of 1969.

They were successful owner operators of the first Fabric Centre and quickly became active members throughout the Community. After seven years, Don designed and built a new and larger store for his adored wife and the growing Communities needs. Don dedicated his life to helping others in many forms of volunteer work; to name a few - their church, soup kitchens, Salvation Army, and the Thrift Store. He was well known and respected for his love of nature and the outdoors, cycling for years on the rural roads of the North Okanagan and Shuswap, skiing, hiking, canoeing, fishing and camping. Along with his mechanical and engineering talent he assisted many with being the Mr. Fix It and Amateur Inventor.

Don was predeceased by his wife Inez on August 7, 2007.

Leonora Marian Griffith (Feist) May 17, 1921 - September 20, 2013 Leonora Griffith (nee Robertson) passed away peacefully on September 20, 2013 at Shuswap Lake General Hospital at the age of 92. She is survived by her three daughters; Moira Thomson of Osoyoos, Judy (Gary) Simpson of Salmon Arm, and Jane (Blaine) Carlson of Vernon; grandchildren Blaine Thomson, Kevin Thomson, Mark Simpson (Lou Edwards), Marla (Craig) Turner, Lisa (Chris) Calvert, Kyla (Jason) Belter and Brett (Meghan) Carlson; and twelve great-grandchildren. Leonora was preceded in death by all her siblings: Margaret, Alec, Bill, Phyllis, Ian and Charlie.

She was born in Lacombe, Alberta and raised from a young age in East Kelowna. Leonora drove taxi in the Kelowna area during WWII, eventually moving to Penticton where she drove taxi for another ten years.

She moved to Salmon Arm in 1961 to be closer to her sister, Phyllis Timpany. Mom worked as a cashier at the Co-op grocery store and then at Overwaitea until her retirement. As a single mother, her focus in life was raising and providing for her daughters. In keeping with her wishes, there will be no formal service. Family will gather for the interment at the Glenmore Cemetery in Kelowna where she will rest in peace beside the love of her life, her first husband, Harold Clokey Thompson (1918 – 1941).

Funeral arrangements are in the care of Bowers Funeral Service, Salmon Arm BC. Online condolences may be sent through Leonoras obituary at www.bowersfuneralservice.com
