T he 20 21 Ba s eba l l Manitoba award winners were announced in late October, 2021. Over 45 individuals were nominated for 14 categories, and winners were chosen through an Awards Committee. Local Payton McNish won Female Player of the Year. Payton plays Minor Ball with the Rivers Comets and made the Midwest Region A A A team this past season; she spends the majority of her time on the mound or at 1st and 3rd base. She was nominated for the award by her coach Ryan Lamb.

B a s eb a l l M a n it ob a held an awards ceremony luncheon in Winnipeg on Saturday, November 6th, but Payton was unable to attend because of other commitments with hockey. R ivers M inor Baseball President Aaron Tycoles made arrangements to have her award

The three legged stool

am going to take a bit of a different turn with this week’s column. As I have stated many times, a newspaper is like a three-legged stool. You need all three legs, or it’s tough to keep the stool upright when your butt is perched on it.

Very few readers will even know what a utilitarian stool is. In our farming background, the most common stool was a milk stool, one you used to get down low enough to milk the cows. You certainly didn’t want to fall off a milk stool. The landing might be hard and messy.

A newspaper needs three parts, or three legs, to stand on: ads, news and opinion pieces. Few community newspapers publish in-house or guest columns. We publish several. The one you are reading now is closing in on the 1,700th column I have written.

From the outset, 32 years ago, I never asked people to agree with me. All I ask is that they read this column, or any other column, and examine the statements for the kernels of truth it may contain.

There is an of fshoot of columns and that’s the newspaper’s editorial. I much prefer columns over editorials, as editorials aren’t often attributed to a writer. Without attribution, credibility and accountability fade. That is not a good thing.

In Manitoba, we have access to several columnists. The Winnipeg Free Press used to have humourist Doug Speirs. He was entertaining and often there was a

deeper message.

The Free Press has Dan Lett and I would say I agree with Dan only about one third of the time. He is pretty slanted in his support for the NDP Party. He is also pretty slanted in his opposition to anything to do with PC Manitoba. In recent years, I think Dan could have done a lot deeper job, with the resources he has available to him, to dig out more research on solutions and treatments for COVID-19 but hey, what do I know?

The Free Press also has Tom Brodbeck, formerly of the Winnipeg Sun. Tom is a little more open to the conservative side of things than Lett, but not much.

Scott Billeck writes for the Winnipeg Sun, along with a few others. The Free Press has several reporters who do double duty as columnists. Sometimes they get the roles mixed up and that is a common pitfall today. News and opinion should stand separately.

Independent columnist John Feldsted, whose work has appeared occasionally on these pages, is one of the best minds when it comes to analysis and constitutional history. If you read John’s columns, you quickly conclude that the way Manitoba and Canada are being run is somewhat different from what was intended in the constitution. That could be why we are having so many problems.

Not too many miles away, in Brandon, we have the Brandon Sun, which is owned and now almost completely taken over by

Ken Waddell the Winnipeg Free Press. Matt Goertzen writes a column/editorial. Matt is a good guy, but he is very often out touch with his audience.

The biggest problem with newspapers today, and Manitoba is no exception, is that the bigger ones are owned by shareholder corporations. The Free Press, or FP publications, owns the Winnipeg Free Press, the Brandon Sun, the Steinbach Carillon and the five biggest community papers in the City of Winnipeg, namely, The Herald, The Lance, The Metro, The Times and The Headliner. A corporation, by its very nature, looks after the corporate interests and if that is put ahead of the community’s interests, it can be a big problem.

Glacier, the corporation that owned the Neepawa Press from 2010 to 2015, still owns a few papers in Manitoba. If my information is correct, they own papers in Virden and Thompson. They used to own the Westman Journal in Brandon, the Reston Recorder, Souris Plain Dealer,

Melita New Era and the Deloraine Times and Star. Glacier simply shut down those papers a couple of years ago. The privately owned Boissevain Recorder is now covering those areas and doing a pretty good job of it.

Post Media owns the Winnipeg Sun and the Portage weekly paper. PM shut down a pile of papers in the last couple of years, including papers at Altona, Carman, Winkler, Morden as well as Selkirk and Stonewall. FP stepped into Altona to local run a paper there. In other locations, a private company runs papers in the other towns that Post Media abandoned.

Local papers, news, readers and advertisers hold the keys to survival of newspapers.

Events of the past few years have surely shown us that print is the most reliable source of news, ads and opinions.

As relevant as ever

I

n October 1950, the first Peanuts comic strip took its place in a daily newspaper. Its creator, Charles Schultz, would draw six daily and one weekend strip until his death in July 2000. No new strips were produced after that. Schultz wanted it that way and his wishes (outlined in his will) were respected. Since his death, strips that originally appeared in black and white have been colourized and are still in syndication.

Peanuts followed the day-to-day life of “Good ‘ol Charlie Brown.” He was joined by his friends Lucy, Linus, Peppermint Patty, his sister Sally and Snoopy the Beagle. Through these and other characters who made cameo appearances at various times, Schultz poked fun at human life with all its faults and contradictions.

Charlie Brown is the “Everyman” character in the strip. He works hard (for his age). He tries to do his best to please his family and friends. But whatever he does never seems to be quite good enough– and some of his friends lose no time telling him so.

Charlie Brown loves baseball. He manages a playground team made up of the other “Peanuts” characters– but they’ve only won one game, and he was at home, in bed with the f lu when that happened.

His football team is just as bad. But he doesn’t give up. He keeps trying to get better, hoping that one

day his fortunes will improve.

Lucy is the opposite of Charlie Brown. In her house, what she says goes. If Linus and Rerun (her brothers) don’t do as she demands, she uses various forms of violence to force them to comply. Somewhere in her yard, she has set up what looks to be a lemonade stand, but which is actually a booth from which she dispenses psychiatric help for five to 50 cents a session. But her advice is little more than highly simplistic answers to complex personal problems. It’s Schultz’s way of criticizing those in authority who do the same when dealing with the social, economic and moral problems in society.

But Schultz reserves his sharpest criticism for organized religion. To do this, he speaks through Linus, Lucy’s brother. Linus is the philosopher who can quote large passages of Scripture and apply them to different issues in life. Those quotations appear quite often in “Peanuts,” especially during the Christmas season.

But while Linus knows what the Bible teaches, he falls short in applying what he knows. Case in point– Snoopy the dog is outside shivering in some brutally cold weather. All that Charlie Brown and Linus do is walk up to Snoopy, pat him on the head and say: “Be of good cheer, Snoopy. Be of good cheer.” To Schultz, this is a common problem with organized

religion– its followers know what good they should do, but fail to do it.

Twenty-one years have passed since Schultz drew his last “Peanuts” strip. The main characters remain frozen in time, but Schultz’s observations on society and its feeble attempt to solve complex problems are as relevant today as they have ever been.

And perhaps, today more than ever, we who profess to be people of faith and believers in Jesus Christ need to pay attention to the messages Schultz and others like him are sending us. The messages are subtle, but powerful. If we listen carefully, we just might hear what our society is saying about organized religion and be motivated to take Christ’s teachings seriously and apply them more consistently to our lives.

he name Nellie McClung is familiar to most of us over a certain age, or to one passionate about women’s rights, or equality, or social justice, or defender of faith. From humble prairie beginnings to becoming a force to be reckoned with, Nellie spoke her mind with grace and humour.

I am currently re-reading a book about her life, achievements and it includes some of her many columns.

I mentioned her last week, and this week I have become more aware of how her concerns on the late 1930s and early 1940s parallel concerns I have today. The world was in a state of f lux, the depression’s effects were lingering and had affected world values, and then the Second World War took centre stage with all it’s implications.

This pandemic is the first time in my lifetime that I have been a part of a world wide event, and I can’t say that I appreciate the opportunity to learn and change!

For learning and changing I am, and with a reluctance, I admit, both are for the betterment of me and my world.

“June 1, 1940. I am sure that you can do a fine service if you study the question of refugee children. There are 9,400 of them in England right now, waiting for homes and transportation to come to Canada... We have room for many more people in Canada.” She goes on to remind

her readers, and us today, “We save ourselves in direct ratio to our efforts to save others.”

For me, that is a direct hit, striking my thoughts and actions in this time of increased isolation, separation and distancing. As of the time of my musing, hair salons are open and I have a scheduled haircut. I will wash my hair before going to diminish the time I spend in a public space. A small act, but an act.

The topic of refugees runs deeper, yes, there are countless individuals around the world needing, desperately needing, a safe home. Here in our own country, there are too many that have no home, and even closer to our home, there are too many struggling to make ends meet– housing, education, food, transportation… the list is hurtful.

McClung concludes another column: “The various elements in our country are like the stones needed for a building. They are strong, beautiful, durable. But they cannot be held together without cement, and this social cement is a thousand little acts of understanding of which we are capable– insignificant taken singly, but mighty in their accumulation for the building-up of our nation.”

This rings as true today as the day she wrote it– Mar. 16, 1940. We are these elements; strong, beautiful and durable. We have the power to be the cement with our small acts of kindness. I am not certain if I am not listening carefully enough to our current political leaders, but I don’t hear encouragement that moves me like these words do. Perhaps my age? Perhaps a different vocab?

Perhaps I am jaded and worn out.

Yet one more quote: “So let us postpone our criticism for a brighter day. Let us all reserve our criticisms for ourselves and look around to see what we can do in this.”

Angie’s retirement

Sarah Plosker Rivers Banner Angela (Angie) Lau retired October 30, 2021 after over 36 years of owning and operating Angie’s Hair Salon in Rivers. She and her husband Henry got married in 1968, and started off as a young married couple in Winnipeg. They were originally from Hong Kong.

They operated a hotel coffee shop in Winnipeg from 1970-72. Once they saved up enough money, they bought a restaurant in Virden in 1972, which they later sold in 1979. Her husband always loved small towns. They then bought the building at 680 Quebec St in 1981. They lived in a trailer parked there for two summers while they renovated the old building.

They then officially moved to Rivers in 1983. Her husband opened a refrigeration repair business in 1984, and she opened the salon in

1985, following hairdressing school in Brandon. In those days there was no need to apprentice, working for someone in a hair salon, so she went straight from school to being her own boss: both a hairdresser and a business owner.

Angie’s first hairdressing experience started very early: she used to cut her two sisters’ hair when they were younger. She also cut her friends’ hair while living in Virden. She loves to meet people and notes that people in Rivers are so friendly. Angie’s Hair Salon was open for so long that Angie had numerous multi-generational clients (e.g. grandmother, mother, daughter). When asked if she got all the good small-town gossip as a hairdresser, she laughed and said everyone is so nice, people always had good things to say about others. She recalls days when she was so busy, she can’t believe how fast

she could cut people’s hair.

She had three hairdressing stations with three chairs.

A fourth stayed in storage and she has now set up her brand-new 36 -year-old hairdressing station and chair in her home in Rivers, where she still cuts customers’ hair because she enjoys it so much.

Angie has three boys (all grown up now). She lives with her mother Chau Shum and cat; her son Colin sometimes stays with her as well. Although she has family in Winnipeg and BC, she loves it here in Rivers so continues to live here.

She loves the people, and the golfing! She even owns her own golf cart. She notes that the local golf course is beautiful and has incredibly cheap prices. When asked how she makes time for her hobbies, she says: If you like to do something, you make time. Good life advice!

Fred and June Smith celebrate 70th anniversary

Sarah Plosker Rivers Banner

Local residents Fred and June Smith were married December 6th, 1951. That day was also the 25th Wedding anniversary of June's Uncle Dick and Aunt Laura, as well as the 50th Wedding Anniversary of her maternal grandparents. What a special day! The Wedding reception and 50th Anniversary celebration were jointly held in the former Ukrainian Hall in Rivers (what is now the Zion Church). Their 70th anniversary was celebrated quietly last month with dinner out with two of their children and their spouses. Unfortunately, the current world situation doesn't allow for large celebrations.

Fred and June were both born in the Rivers area and have resided in the area their whole lives. They lived on a mixed farm midway between Rivers and Rapid City (cattle, grain, chickens, and a large garden).

They now live in the town of Rivers. They met at a dance in Rapid City. Square dancing was very popular in their early years.

Their instructor was Fred Taylor of Rivers.

They competed at the Brandon fair once prior to their marriage and won 1st place.

In their younger years they were avid curlers. Now they spend their time watching as much curling on TV as they can. They have three children, nine grandchildren,

and three great-grandchildren, with the 4th due this spring.

When asked about advice for young couples, they said that in a marriage you have to give a lot, and take a lot. Don't be so quick to give up and go your separate ways. They note that everything was so different back then, when it came to dating and just life in general.

Congratulations Fred and June on your platinum anniversary!

Sarah’s Science Corner: Centenarian milestone How do animals stay warm in the winter?

Sarah Plosker Rivers Banner Today we will explore another winter-themed hands-on Let’s Talk Science activity. This activity is best suited for grades 1 to 5, although other children may benefit as well.

You will need: containers (big enough to fit a hand inside), ice water (or snow--the LTS activity sheet states “ if available”--HA!), plastic bags (sandwich bags) or plastic wrap, wrapping materials like fake fur, cotton balls, polar f leece, wool sock, etc., lard (or Crisco), balloons, straws, and paper towels.

A n i ma ls have some unique adaptat ions to stay warm. Discover what conduction of heat and insulation have to do with staying warm!

What to do 1. Fill a container with ice water or snow. Make sure there is enough water or snow to cover an entire finger---preferably a whole hand.

2. Using your choice of materials, wrap each finger with a different material, cover it with plastic wrap or sandwich bag, dip it in ice water/snow and see which material keeps your finger warmest. The wrapping materials may include fake fur, cotton balls, foil, polar f leece, a wool sock, or any other materials you would like to test as insulation. Which materials were the best at keeping your f inger warm? (Parents, just be careful if you are letting your children use their ow n hands, t hat t hey aren’t getting too cold!)

3. To test the insulating properties of air, place a balloon on one finger without air in it. Then, insert the straw into the balloon (keep it on your f inger) and blow some air into it. Test. Does the layer of air help keep your finger warmer? Can you think of any animals that have a layer of air around their body?

4. To test the insulating properties of lard, put your hand into one inside-out plastic sandwich bag and

scoop a small handful of lard, using the bag to keep your hands clean. Place the lard and plastic bag inside another plast ic sandw ich bag. I f you turned the first bag inside out, you should be able to seal the two bags together, keeping the lard from coming out. Spread the lard around between the two bags, making a sort of "lard mitten". Place your hand inside the "lard mitten" and test for insulation. What animals have a lot of fat on their body?

What is the purpose of this fat (or blubber)?

What’s happening?

Insulator is another name for a material that is a poor conductor of heat.

Insulators slow down the transfer of heat from an object or place that is warm (like your hand) to an object or place that is cooler. Heat always moves from hot areas to cold areas in an attempt to even out the temperature between the two places.

Insulation is used to keep hot things hot and cold things cold.

Why does it matter?

Animals have a variety of different mechanisms to keep warm. Blubber (fat, like lard) and fur keep Arctic animals warm.

Down feathers trap a layer of air next to the body to help keep birds warm.

Local resident Gwen Spring turned 100 years young last week. She was born January 3, 1922 in St Pancras, London, England and immigrated to Canada with her family when she was 18 months old.

She lived in Ninette, MB with her family until she got married, then lived in various Manitoban towns where her husband James worked. They moved to Rivers in 1971. She now resides in Riverdale Personal Care Home.

When asked about her fondest memory, she immediately said her first born baby, and then excitedly spoke of her nine children, 42 grandchildren, and numerous great- and greatgreat-grandchildren. In her younger days, Gwen used to knit and make quilts. She still belongs to the Ladies Auxiliary, and comes out to Bingo regularly. She was at the Ladies Auxiliary Christmas party in December looking sharp

as ever! There was a wonderful birthday celebration at PCH, where everyone sung Happy Birthday and had a wonderful time.

Congratulations Gwen on this milestone! Wishing you the best for many years to come.

It is in the evening toward what is the end of our day, when we are winding down and beginning to rest, when we are nally still, that God can get to work on us; when we are better able to be aware of God’s presence, when we can hear God’s voice more easily. Scriptures assure us God is always with us, it’s just that it’s harder for us to be with God until our work day is coming to an end and we can begin to rest in God’s presence.

Insulation effectiveness More from page 5

Materials that insulate to keep heat in or cold out are very important in everyday life to keep us healthy and comfortable.

A thermos will keep milk cold and fresh so that it is still safe to drink at lunch time. Fleece-lined slippers keep our toes cozy and warm when the f loors are cool in winter.

Maintaining appropriate temperatures in buildings is important and the energy to provide heat can be expensive. Heating and cooling buildings is one of the greatest uses of energy worldwide. In order to reduce energy consumption, proper insulation is necessary to cut heating/cooling costs, while maintaining comfortable temperatures.

Although covering a building in blubber would not be

an effective way to insulate a building, trapping air in material, like birds do with their feathers, is a commonly-used strategy.

Fiberglass, a material made from very fine fibers of glass, traps air in its fibres and is used to insulate buildings and homes.

Investigate further • To complete this exploration with more precision, instead of using your finger, try filling a small water bottle with roomtemperature water and placing a thermometer in the bottle. Pack plastic bags with insulating materials and place the bottle in the bags. Record the temperature of the bottle before placing it into the ice water/snow.

Measure temperat ure changes every 5 minutes for 25-30 minutes. Repeat

Holding a community event?

with different insulating materials. How do the different materials compare as insulators?

• Repeat the exploration using hot water instead of cold water. (Parents, you may want to do this part yourself to minimize any risk of spilling and burning skin). Are the same insulating materials still the best when hot water is used?

• Find examples around your home of insulators we use every day to keep hot things hot and cold things cold. Possible items: thermos, tea cozy for a teapot, insulated lunch bags and picnic totes, down-filled winter coats, fur-lined boots or gloves, foam tubes around hot water pipes, Styrofoam lining in the toilet tank, spray foam insulation on walls, etc.
