Atironto water woes on agenda Oct. 7 Stacey Roy

sroy@perfprint.ca

News - The results of a sounding study on the Atironto water system will be coming up for discussion at Montague Township council next Tuesday, Oct. 7, 7 p.m.

Glenn Barnes, CAO for the township confirmed for the Record News this week that the sounding study results have been received by township staff and have undergone a peer review.

The next step is to formally present them to council next Tuesday where the elected members will discuss the results and decide where to go from here.

“We’re moving forward to get to a better result,” said Reeve Bill Dobson upon hearing the report had been received. “It’s a situa-

tion that has to be improved and we’re trying to do as much as possible to improve it.”

He reminds residents that all agreements concerning Atironto water (aside from the recent 50 per cent rate hike earlier this year) have been undertaken prior to this term of council.

This most recent increase has challenged many homeowners in Atironto such as John Lumsden.

He understands the reserve fund Atironto residents were paying into has been depleted since residents were required to pay 75 per cent more than their Smiths Falls neighbours beginning in the mid1990s.

“I know the township was trying to help us,” Lumsden said.

“Our water bills should have been going up gradually,” his

wife, Nancy Lumsden added.

Barnes felt the Atironto report is “not likely to be in camera” Oct. 7. “We want to also inform the residents of Atironto what we’ve been doing so far.”

The sounding study is the result of work undertaken last month within the Atironto community. The sounding equipment helps municipalities to evaluate the water and sewer system to ensure it meets industry standards and is free of flaws such as leaks. Whether Atironto’s system has leaks or not may be made clear next week.

Answers to this question and more are all Atironto residents like John and Nancy Lumsden have been waiting for.

Maintenance costs at heart of fire truck expenditures Stacey Roy

sroy@perfprint.ca

News - Fire Chief Normand Beauchamp confirms truck maintenance and minor repairs make up the over $8,000 bill for the fire department’s aerial truck.

“For safety we have to do annual maintenance,” Beauchamp said. “Annual maintenance is not covered by any warranty.”

Two separate incidents of maintenance were recently undertaken amounting to $6,500.

The remaining $1,900 speaks to repair costs for a minor accident the truck was involved in September 2013. Beauchamp reminds the community that the truck is still reliable, but was purchased by the company after being used as a demo truck for

some time. Councillors questioned the $8,400 bill at last week’s committee-of-the-whole session, concerned the warranty had expired in some way.

“It would be nice to know that information,” remarked Coun.

Chris Cummings last week.

It is likely this information will be reported to councillors at a future meeting.

The TRFH, operating under the umbrella of the Rideau Community Health Services, has been in the planning stages for more than a year. The opening of the commercial kitchen component marks the first step towards becoming one of the first local food hubs in eastern Ontario.

“This will be the first of many significant steps forward for the food hub,” Ray Elgersma, TRFH acting chair explained.

“With this first crucial piece of the puzzle completed, we can really begin to move closer to bringing local foods to the community.”

In addition to a commercial kitchen rental facility, the food hub will also shortly begin operations as a depot for local foods, and a pick up location for restaurants and retail outlets interested in including local foods in their prod-

Community – Local growers, processors and buyers will be pleased to learn that the Two Rivers Food Hub (TRFH), located in the Gallipeau Centre in Smiths Falls, will soon be open for business.

At a general meeting on Monday, Sept. 22, the TRFH set a target date of Nov. 1 for the opening of the commercial kitchen component of the food hub, moving them one step closer to a fully operational food hub servicing the Lanark Leeds Grenville regions.

A local food hub is a centrally located facility dedicated to coordinating the collection and distribution of locally grown foods to the benefit of both growers and purchasers. One of the main purposes of a food hub is to help recreate the local food infrastructure that has been lost over the past several decades.

Interval House takes back the night to end violence against women Ashley Kulp

akulp@perfprint.ca

News – There’s strength in numbers and that’s exactly what area men, women and children proved during the eighth annual Lanark County Interval House (LCIH) Take Back the Night walk Sept.

25 in Carleton Place.

The rally, which focuses on ending violence against women, began with a special ceremony at the Carleton Place Town Hall and was followed by a march down Bridge Street which ended at Reads Book Shop. Along the way, supporters displayed signs and chanted, speaking out against harassment, sexual abuse and assault of women.

According to LCIH executive director Erin Lee-Todd, Take Back the Night is an “unfortunate, yet celebrated event.”

She came to LCIH from Ottawa Interval House 15 years ago and was shocked to hear that there was no Take Back the Night event in Lanark County.

“I thought, ‘I can’t work in a community that doesn’t want to join forces to take back our rights and our freedoms,” she explained.

She acknowledged that heavy topics dealing with sexual abuse and harassment can be uncomfortable, but are necessary to speak about.

“Ending violence against women comes with language and descriptors that might be bad or negative, but frankly, it’s no worse than what we hear in our schools today,” Lee-Todd stated.

Ashley Kulp/METROLAND

Dozens of men, women and children marched down terval House’s annual Take Back the Night walk. This Bridge Street in Carleton Place Sept. 25 to protest is the eighth year for the event, which started from violence against women during Lanark County In- Carleton Place Town Hall.

To combat that negativity, she announced that LCIH is endorsing the inaugural Slut Walk in Lanark County next summer, being organized by Tracy Kwissa. “It’s critical to take back the night but also to take back the language,” Lee-Todd said. “Why is it okay

for a judge to render a decision based on what a woman was wearing and that she was ‘asking for it’?...We need to get engaged. Yes does mean yes and no means no.”

“It’s time, people. We have to step up and talk about risk and demand

change so I thank you all for being here,” Lee added.

Carleton Place mayor Wendy LeBlanc stressed how important LCIH’s efforts are within the Carleton Place community and Lanark County, to

make women feel safe. But more can always be done.

“We’ve talked about all the things that have been done in this community to make it feel safe and feel safe for women and even though we (town) have provided all these services, we still have women like myself who are afraid and don’t feel safe to walk at night in our town,” she said. “I’d like to think that it would be nice that tonight, the night we take back the night, women would feel comfortable anywhere in our community.”

Lee-Todd noted that people need to develop the courage to stop the cycle of violence, which she said happens on our streets, at our offices and in our classrooms.

“Whether our clothes are too tight, we’re lazy, the wrong colour, wrong class, or sleep with the wrong people... we’re (women) told what our experience is,” she explained. “I challenge all of you that the excuses end here tonight.”

With the municipal election around the corner, Lee-Todd challenged those in attendance to speak to local politicians and candidates to affect change.

“The more we ignore it, the closer it gets to your door and then one day you turn on the radio and the name is someone you know. You don’t want that. “The time is now.”

Eat to aid the animals during first pasta dinner for LAWS Oct. 19 akulp@perfprint.ca

Community – You won’t have to go further than the Carleton Place Canoe Club Sunday, Oct. 19 for an authentic Italian culinary experience to aid the Lanark Animal Welfare Society (LAWS).

The non-profit organization is set to host its inaugural pasta dinner fundraiser at the canoe club along the banks of Riverside Park with two sittings: 4 to 5:30 p.m. and 5:30 to 7 p.m. But this is no ordinary spaghetti dinner. Ballygiblin’s Restaurant & Pub in Carleton Place, led by chef Dusty Peetes, will be preparing the evening’s menu, which is sure to appeal to all foodies. It includes: traditional style stacked lasagna layered with local ground beef; cannelloni stuffed with grilled vegetables and spinach, featuring your choice of roasted tomato and herb sauce or creamy alfredo; as well as crisp greens with

marinated veggies and a vegetable confetti, marinated tomato salad with caramelized onions and an assortment of fresh herbs, or a refreshing salad made from a variety of greens and drizzled with garlic dressing. To top it all off will be locally baked buns with whipped garlic butter.

events to host. We’d never held one so we decided to try it,” she said, adding that the event is also “a great opportunity for us to meet all of the people that support the shelter year-round and we’re looking forward to it.”

The partnership with Ballygiblin’s allows LAWS

“It’s one of the events earmarked to become an annual and signature events for LAWS.” LISA STRANGWAY Director of marketing and fundraising lanark Animal welfare society

According to LAWS’ director of fundraising and marketing, Lisa Strangway, the pasta dinner is a new venture for the organization, which operates a nokill shelter at 253 Glenview Road, just outside of Smiths Falls.

“In researching best practices of animal shelters to raise funds, there were a lot of spaghetti dinners options because they are low cost

to bring the fundraiser to a new level. “We have elevated (the traditional spaghetti dinner) a little to include Ballygiblin’s and they’ll take control and prepare all of the food. So really, it’s a gourmet version of the spaghetti dinner,” she noted.

The cost to attend is $15 per person and children under four eat for free. Strangway encourages friends and family to consider purchas-

ing a table of eight for $120.

“It’s a great opportunity to come out and have Sunday dinner with the family in a beautiful location with lovely views,” she remarked.

It’s also a chance to peruse a variety of items up for grabs in a silent auction and participate in raffles and door prizes.

Strangway, who is currently creating a strategic and marketing plan for the organization, indicated that the spaghetti dinner is something she hopes becomes an annual function. Net proceeds will go towards day-to-day operations at the shelter.

“It’s one of the events earmarked to become an annual and signature event for LAWS,” she said.

Advance tickets are available from LAWS (253 Glenview Road in Smiths Falls) or Ballygiblin’s (151 Bridge Street in Carleton Place).

munity affected by violence after attending an LCIH Take Back the Night event a few years ago.

During the flower ceremony that evening, she was handed a slip of paper with a woman’s name on it and asked to place a flower in the river in honour of her. Watson carried around that name for several months as it “reminded me of the battles women experience and face.”

“It was healing for me and my past abusive relationship,” she continued.

While advocating to end violence against women, Watson approached Perth mayor, John Fenik, about a monument to honour women murdered in Lanark County.

“I challenged the community... and the first steps (towards the monument) began,” she said.

A committee was formed to fundraise and brainstorm ideas for the monument and Watson was happy to announce that construction on it will begin in the next few months. To be located in Stewart Park, a local female mason worker will cre-

ate a memorial bench and marble pieces will honour fallen women with one stone embedded in the monument to pay tribute to Jane Does. The area will also include a plaque with information about the monument and its history.

“This is everyone’s problem and everyone’s responsibility to end violence against women,” Watson stressed.

Gourmet dinner fundraiser Oct. 9 This year, LCIH marks its 35th anniversary and urge the community to feed the fight to end violence against women with a gourmet dinner Thursday, Oct. 9 at Ballygiblin’s Restaurant & Pub in Carleton Place

(151 Bridge Street).

The upscale dining experience, to be served by local celebrities, will include vegetarian and gluten-free menus, with beer and wine tastings.

The cost to attend is $35 per person with two sittings at 5:30 and 7:30 p.m.

Wesport resident Dianne Adshead elected OACFDC president News – Dianne Adshead, CPA CMA, has been elected president of the Ontario Association of Community Futures Development Corporations (OACFDC) following the association’s recent conference and annual general meeting at Deerhurst Resort, Huntsville. Adshea sd is on the board of directors of the Valley Heartland Community Futures Development Corporation (CFDC) in Smiths Falls.

Adshead joined the aValley Heartland CFDC board of directors in February 2010 after she retired from her position as finance manager with the Children’s Aid Society of the County of Lanark and Town of Smiths Falls. Having achieved a designation as certified management accountant, she is now recognized as a chartered professional accountant. Her career included more than 25 years of senior management experience, primarily in financial services, developmental services, international development and health services, but also covered a wide variety of other occupations, such as: ophthalmic technician; teacher; diplomatic services secretarial; dressmaker; and dietetics trainee with the Canadian Army.

Valley Heartland CFDC is one of 61 CFDCs across rural Ontario. They offer free business counselling, loans for start-up and expansion of small business, strategic planning on local projects and community economic development.

Each CFDC is locally managed by a volunteer board of directors, funded by Industry Canada’s Community Futures Program through FedNor in northern Ontario and FedDev Ontario in southern Ontario.

As a provincial association, the OACFDC brings together CFDCs from across Ontario

munity, which led to her volunteer position with Valley Heartland CFDC. Now, as OACFDC president, she is enthusiastic about working with the entire province.

“Retirement has given me the opportunity to serve my community in a volunteer capacity, in a very much more active role,” she said.

She and her self-employed husband, Gordon, live on a 40-acre farmland property near West-

port. “We love the serenity of the countryside, watching the wildlife around us and seeing the community grow and prosper with the assistance of organizations like the CFDCs,” she said.

A financial plan is… yours Dianne Adshead to share best practices and work together as a whole, for the betterment of Ontario’s nonurban areas. The association provides services to their member CFDCs, acts as an advocacy group and offers professional development.

As she takes on her new role as president of the provincial association, Adshead is optimistic about the part that she and the organization can play. “The OACFDC will continue delivering quality and relevant services to all our CFDC members,” she said. “Through consultation and discussions with our members and funding partners, we can help shape the future of the community futures program in Ontario and ensure that OACFDC remains responsive to the needs of its members.”

The term ‘financial plan’ is pretty generic – but yours shouldn’t be. Your plan should be as good a fit for your life in the future as it is today, be easily adaptable to the constant changes you’re bound to encounter in the future, and be focused on achieving your long-term life and retirement goals.

And if you’re wondering whether or not you need a financial plan, wonder no more, because you do – if you have an income, a family (now or in the future), dreams of a comfortable retirement, as well as lots of other financially-rooted reasons that are unique to you. So, to get you started, here’s what to look for in your financial plan: • There is no one-size-fits-all financial plan. Yours must be a personalized plan that is a precise road map of the things you need to do to achieve your current and future goals.

• The starting point is a discussion of your financial goals – educating your children, paying off debt, protecting your family, buying a house, planning a holiday or a major purchase, leaving money to your family or a favorite charity, and, of course, funding your retirement.

Manage Your Money • Once you’ve zeroed in on your financial goals, get specific about how much they will cost and how you will meet those goals.

• Then, take an inventory of all that you own and owe including the value of your home, investments and other assets, pensions and the amount of debt you carry (mortgages, personal loans, credit cards, and so on).

With all the right personal information on hand, a financial plan can be developed that gives you: • A snapshot of your current net worth – and a blueprint for increasing your net worth over time by increasing the value of what you own and decreasing the amount that you owe.

• A framework for a workable budget that includes your income, expenses, taxes and savings. You want to aim for a budget that gives you a cash flow surplus (meaning you’re spending less than you earn) and not a cash flow deficit (meaning you’re spending more than you earn).

• The knowledge about whether you can achieve your goals based on your current assets and savings patterns or what you need to do to meet your goals by increasing savings, changing your investments or delaying the timeline for some of your goals.

• Advice on what types of accounts to put your investments in – RRSPs, TFSAs, non-registered accounts, and so on.

You need a comprehensive and personal financial plan.

Talk to a professional advisor with the qualifications, tools and track record of developing financial plans.

Letter to the Editor

Seat belt-related road deaths headed for ten-year low, says OPP DEAR EDITOR: While getting road users to be 100 per cent compliant with seat belt laws remains a challenging goal, the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) sees motorists taking a step in the right direction with 2014 seat beltrelated fatalities on track to being the lowest in ten years.

The OPP keeps close watch on its collision and enforcement data as it serves as an important yardstick for assessing how the OPP is doing with its combined traffic enforcement and education initiatives, as well as how motorists are doing with traffic law compliance. They are set to launch their fall seat belt campaign Sept. 24 to Oct. 10.

Looking at ten years of collision data (2005-2014), more than 100 people died each year from 2005 to 2007 in collisions where lack of

seatbelt compliance was a contributing factor and the number has stayed below the one hundred mark since then. When looking at more recent data, a total of 73 people died in collisions due to non-compliance with seat belt laws last year (2013).

Over the course of its fall seat belt campaign, OPP officers will be counting on every driver they encounter during their seat belt checks to ensure that everyone in the vehicle is buckled up. This includes making sure that all children and infants have proper car seats and booster seats and that they are installed correctly. Back seat passengers should never let their guard down about buckling up.

Commentary

A few minutes could be a lifetime With Fire Prevention Week just around the corner, there will soon be a flood of public service announcements that emphasize the importance of having a working smoke alarm in each level of the home. Ask just about any fire chief or fire prevention officer and he or she can tell you about how many times they respond to calls and find that a smoke detector has been disconnected or the battery has been removed or is dead. We’re not talking about a high-maintenance item here; the time it takes to ensure the safety device is in place and works is negligible.

For those of us who get annoyed when the alarm goes off while something is cooking on the stove or is being taken out of the oven, we need to figure out a way to deal with it.

Taking out the battery or getting rid of the unit out of frustration is not the solution. The bottom line is that smoke alarms save lives, and putting up with the minor inconvenience of testing the detectors twice a year and changing the batteries on a regular basis is a very small price to pay. The reason fire departments keep delivering the message is because they know what the consequences of not having a working smoke alarm can be. Firefighters will stop delivering the message when they see that everyone is taking their advice. Many departments can provide detectors and batteries if money is an issue.

Not having sufficient smoke alarms in place is a provincial offence; more importantly, it’s an unnecessary risk. Take the advice of fire officials and install detectors; your life could depend on it.

Mary Cook’s Memories MARY COOK

the trees had turned, Father looked different and he acted differently than he did on the days that had gone before us.

He still went to the barns every night to check on the animals in the barns, but he no longer looked anxiously out at the night sky, trying to read what the next day would bring.

I thought, back then, by the time the fall weather was ready to settle in, that his face didn’t wear the weariness I saw nightly during the summer. He ate his supper more slowly and I was quick to notice every page of the Ottawa Farm News Editors: Laurie Weir, Joe Morin, Ashley Kulp Reporters: Stacey Roy, Tara Gesner, Desmond Devoy, Tiffany Lepack, Kelly Kent Distribution: Lori Sommerdyk, 613-283-3182 ,ext. 138 CLASSIFIED/REGIONAL ROUNDUP 613-283-3182 Judy Michaelis x122 email: jmichaelis@theemc.ca Cheryl Code x133 email: cheryl.code@metroland.com Fax: 613-283-5909

Journal was read and he stayed longer in the old rocking chair by the Findlay Oval, as the darkness of the fall night closed in around us.

And once he had taken one last trip out to the barns, instead of heading right for his bed, he lingered in the kitchen, lighting his pipe and taking one last cup of green tea.

And I would know. I would know without asking why this change in Father from one season to the next was taking place.

The hay mow would be full and there was no worry that we would not have enough hay to feed our animals over the long winter.

Grain would be plentiful.

The cows would be healthy and ready to give us milk for our own use and to take to the creamery.

That year, it had been a good season, one amongst few in those Depression years.

the cellar full of vegetables and preserves, the meat house full of meat and barrels of salt pork and sauerkraut at the ready; we had survived another year.

And when I sat at the old pine table, as darkness came to the kitchen, I would look over at Father in the rocking chair and I would say my silent thanks and I would know why his face no longer had that weary look, nor would his eyes be heavy from the lack of sleep.

The time to worry was over. All that could be done to survive had been done.

There was nothing left to do, but cherish the warmth of home and give grateful thanks. That one year in those lean ‘30s, I knew in my very young heart, just looking at the change in Father, we had been blessed beyond measure.

Algonquin College Perth Campus is offering several continuing education courses this fall to help students get creative, including a painting and DIY (doit-yourself) workshops. Above, students get in touch with their inner artists during a recent course.

held on Monday, October 6th, 2014 from 7:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. at Centennial (Rosedale) Hall 657 Rosedale Road South.

www.GotFog.ca

Get creative with Algonquin College Perth Campus this fall Community – When students walk into Jeff Banks’ art class, they quickly realize they’ll be discovering a new skill and lifelong hobby.

Banks first offered an art class last winter at the Algonquin College Perth Campus, and its popularity and success has led to yet another offering

by Banks in this fall’s continuing education program.

This October, an Acrylic Painting for Beginners course will take place at the Perth Campus with Banks facilitating the eight-week course.

In the first class, students will learn and get to play with acrylic paint, experiment with acrylic mediums and be given some inspiration for the coming weeks.

After the introduction class, students will work from pictures to create their art and follow the lessons to develop their abilities using the paint.

“Over the eight weeks, students should leave with three paintings showing a development in skills, the confidence to try and paint on their own and be given ideas to try and take acrylic paint further!” explains Banks.

All the supplies are provided and students are encouraged to wear old clothing to class.

Jeff Banks owns and operates his Almonte-based business, JB Arts. He has been teaching students ranging from five to 80 years of age. Since he started teaching art classes at the age of 16, Banks has taught more than 10,000 students. He has a calming demeanour and makes students feel comfortable trying out a skill for the first time.

The Acrylic Painting for Beginners course begins Oct. 20 and wraps up in December, which is just enough time to wrap your painting creations for holiday gift gifting or to hang it up in your house before hosting a get together and show off your creations.

Transform an old piece in Upcycled DIY Workshop How many times have you pinned photos of “must-do” DIY projects, but you have no idea where to start? Or, did you find great garage sale swag this summer, but it’s still living in your own garage?

Then the Upcycled DIY Workshop is the perfect course

for you. It’s a one-day workshop where you’ll learn how to transform a piece into a beautiful creation with your own creativity and taste mixed into the piece.

Susan Storie is a local entrepreneur who owns and operates Mariposa Design and she’ll be teaching the course. From turning old picture frames into a beautiful chalkboard or transforming a wooden window into a photo gallery display, Susan will work with students during the one-day workshop to prepare and potentially finish the project. Students can bring in their own project and all the supplies are provided that day.

The one-day workshop takes place Saturday, Oct. 25 from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

Do you want to learn more about the continuing education courses? Visit the Algonquin College Perth Campus website at algonquincollege.com/perthce for further course details, including frequently asked questions on courses. To register, call the main office at 613-2672859 ext. 5691 or pop by the campus at 7 Craig St. in Perth.

opportunity to reflect on their late father’s strong contribution to the Ottawa Valley country music scene. Each has added a special song written by their Dad to the recording.

“I did ‘One More Country Song’ and Jeff sings ‘This Bottle Filled With Wine.

“Our father left us his music and this is our tribute to him,” Jamie stresses.

The album includes three songs written by Jamie including the opening number ‘The Sugar Shack’ and Jeff’s song ‘He Dreams’.

Wells’ contribution The title song ‘McMunn Is The Name’ was written by Wells, another Ottawa Valley country music icon who will be part of the entertainment Sunday. Also taking part is the always popular Dixon whose song ‘Partying Down In The Keys’ is on the CD. Another musician friend, Dennis Whitty, penned ‘Boots’ the fourth song on the list.

“We had a number of contributors but most of the songs are by Jeff and me or they are dad’s.”

The emcee for Sunday’s venture will be Almonte’s Charlie Kitts who entered the Ottawa Valley Country Music Hall of Fame as a builder in 2010. Other musicians who are scheduled to entertain during the 1 to 8 p.m. extravaganza are Jim Simpson, Tom T. Hill, Barry Munro and Jude Moffatt, Kathleen Stroud and Darlene Thibault. There will also be many more special guests.

The house band will feature Brad Scott on lead guitar, drummer Mike Belajac, fiddler John Richard, Matt Brydges on the steel guitar and bass player Mike Hamelin.

The doors open at 1 p.m. and the music and dancing will continue all afternoon and into the evening.

“Waterfall Catering will be providing the food. A raffle will be held for a signed guitar and there will be other draws held during the supper break and intermissions,” says Carleton Place promoter Bob White who is assisting the McMunn brothers with the release party.

Tickets for the day are $10 each and can be purchased at Graham’s Shoes in Carleton Place; Mark’s Cobbler Shop in Perth and Nicholson’s Sundries in Pakenham or at the door.

Submitted by Jeff Maguire on behalf of the McMunn brothers.

Community – Two musicians with roots that run deep in Carleton Place and eastern Ontario will launch a new CD during a country music show and dance this Sunday at the Carleton Place arena.

Jamie and Jeff McMunn will officially release their new recording entitled simply McMunn Is The Name.

The music show and dance will run from 1 p.m. to 8 p.m. in the main upper hall of the community centre complex on Neelin Street.

The veteran musicians are the sons of the late Ottawa Valley country music legend Ron ‘The Silver Fox’ McMunn who passed away in July 2007 after a battle with cancer.

The McMunn brothers have developed a loyal following and have played during many shows and special productions for more than 25 years. Included was the former Riverside Jam County Music Festival which ran for seven years in Carleton Place beginning in 2004.

During this weekend’s CD launch the McMunns will be joined on stage by a large cast of country music artists from Lanark County, Ottawa and across the region. Among them will be Ottawa Valley Country Music Hall of Fame members Freddie Dixon, Neville Wells and Dan Paul Rogers.

The venture will also feature a member of the next generation of the McMunn family. Brendan McMunn, 17, will join his father Jamie and Uncle Jeff on stage during the afternoon and evening extravaganza. “He’s already stealing my songs,” Jamie laughed, referring to son Brendan. The pair spends many evenings practicing their music in the family home.

It took 18 months of work to produce the CD which will have its first, full public airing Sunday. “We are very excited about the whole project,” Jamie says.

The album, which includes 11 of the brother’s favourite songs, was recorded in the Carleton Place studio of fellow musician Kirk Armstrong. “It’s a labour of love,” Jamie states. “I’m happy with the way it has worked out.

And so far we’re getting good feedback from those (in the music business) who have heard it. We’re even getting a little radio airtime.”

Jamie calls the project “a rite of passage.” Producing the CD gave the brothers an

Huge sighs of relief as Scottish voters choose union other European nations including Spain, Italy and Belgium where separatist movements in regions of those countries hoped to gain traction from a ‘Yes’ decision in Scotland.

The final numbers show 55 per cent of eligible voters favour maintaining the current set-up which means many major decisions relative to Scotland will continue to be made at Westminster, the British Parliament in London and not at Holyrood, the Scottish Parliament in Edinburgh.

The final result is rather emphatic when you consider that in the days immediately preceding the Sept. 18 referendum some polls showed the ‘Yes’ side with a slight lead. In the hours before the vote most pollsters and pundits said it was “too close to call.” Despite the substantial lead the “Better Together” (No) side had enjoyed early this year, few expected a 10 per cent margin in favour of union.

Not surprisingly the outcome led to the immediate resignation of Scottish National Party (SNP) leader Alex Salmond, Scotland’s First Minister. It was the highly skilled Salmond who masterminded the ‘Yes’ campaign and, for a short time at least, he and his supporters appeared to be headed for victory.

I heard his concession speech and I thought he was surprisingly gracious in defeat, noting that his countrymen had made their decision and he respected that.

Reflections

By Jeff maguire

However Salmond’s tune changed the weekend after the vote. In fact a war of words erupted with the outgoing First Minister claiming Scots “were tricked” into rejecting independence.

Political pact He pointed to a rare cross-party pact announced by Cameron in the days before the referendum. The British PM has vowed to hand more political power to Scots. Leaders from all three, main political parties in Britain signed off on the pledge which promises Scots new powers to decide on their tax, budget and welfare policies.

Cameron reiterated those promises the day after the referendum. But he also said it won’t be fair to devolve powers to Scotland without considering similar changes in the rest of the kingdom, i.e.

England, Wales and Northern Ireland.

The PM is of course responsible for all four provinces of the UK. Salmond says people voted no because they believed the commitments endorsed by the three-party pact south of the border. He interprets the post-

referendum comments of Cameron and others to mean they don’t intend to keep the promises they have made.

I think there are sour grapes evident in what the outgoing First Minister has said. After all it is far too early to determine when and how the issues involved will be dealt with. Surely these important matters will require some in-depth discussion by all of those involved.

My take on the ‘No’ victory is that the majority were not convinced the road Salmond and his supporters were prepared to lead them along, is the right

route for Scotland.

Salmond is clearly suspicious of the still vague promises made by the political leadership in London.

Personally I think his remarks smack of “the pot calling the kettle black.”

One of the main criticisms of the SNP leader and his dreams for Scotland is that his plans for the future were not clearly articulated during the lengthy campaign which preceded last month’s referendum.

Lifestyle – In last week’s column I briefly mentioned the recent referendum results in Scotland, adding that my own prediction of success for the ‘No’ side came true and expressing relief that the decision was in favour of union, not separation.

I have had so much input from readers on this subject that I have decided to follow-up on the matter this week.

As a Canadian what happens in Scotland, or the United Kingdom in general, doesn’t affect me directly, of course. But we have many friends and family there and all of them were fearful of what a ‘Yes’ decision would have meant. There was a great deal of concern that Scottish separation could lead to similar campaigns in both Wales and Northern Ireland. Goodness knows the British have already had enough problems relative to the northern portion of the Emerald Isle. And given the serious domestic and international issues the government of the UK currently faces, another referendum on separation is the last thing Prime Minister David Cameron and his government needs.

The fallout might have been felt in Canada too where some Quebecers were hoping a ‘Yes’ vote in Scotland would help fan the dying embers of Quebec separation. Observers from Quebec were in Scotland hoping to learn how to replicate the Scots’ “success.” In the end they experienced disappointment .

There were also sighs of relief in

Your gift keeps on giving. Forever.

Legacy Gift will generate $42.2 MILLION for CHEO over next 100 years Weldon Cochrane was an Ottawa chartered accountant and partner with the accounting firm of Coopers and Lybrand (now PriceWaterhouseCoopers) and was also the Treasurer on the CHEO Foundation Board. Mr. Cochrane had an appreciation for the importance of leaving a legacy and understood how to make an impact when he decided to made a gift in his Will to CHEO. He left the residual of his estate with instructions for it to be endowed; meaning that the capital would be preserved in perpetuity and the annual interest would be used to fund the important work at CHEO. When Mr. Cochrane died in 1985 the CHEO Foundation received $540,000

from his estate and established the Weldon Cochrane Endowment Fund as directed in his Will. Much has happened and changed at CHEO since his death and in that time his legacy gift has grown to $4.6 million.

(20%) will be reinvested bringing the total value of the fund to $6.2 million. In 50 years $15 million (80%) will go to the hospital and $3.8 million (20%) will be reinvested bringing the total value of the fund to $8.4

As CHEO marks its 40th anniversary this year, we look back and honour not only those in our community who made our local children’s hospital a reality, but also donors like Mr. Cochrane who made children a priority. Why not honour what is most important to you during your lifetime The impact of Mr. Cochrane’s generous gift is probably beyond what by considering a gift in Will to CHEO. Our he could have even imagined when he made it over 30 years ago. children, youth and families deserve to Moving forward 80 percent of the interest million.

OPEN HOUSE

As I have written previously, Carleton Place where we live is twinned with Comrie, a picturesque village on the edge of the Scottish Highlands. I am a longtime member of the Carleton Place Sister City Committee and currently serve as chair of the organization. I have visited Scotland and Comrie many times over the years and I have several good friends there.

During the referendum campaign one of them outlined his concerns with respect to what Salmond and his followers were proposing. He sent me an in-depth analysis of his feelings about the debate which really opened my eyes.

In short he said, “Plan A is to win the vote. We (SNP) will tell you about Plan B after we become independent.”

It put me in mind of what Quebecers were being told prior to the failed referendum on separation in that province in 1995. Not nearly enough information for most people to make an informed decision!

Salmond’s vague commitments certainly didn’t exactly leave my friend with warm fuzzies about separation.

He sent me a long list of the questions he felt had not been answered. He said lack of concrete information is what convinced him a ‘Yes’ vote would be folly for his beloved homeland.

“As Scottish as I am, and proud of it, I think our future lies in staying together,” he told me in a telephone conversation.

Economic issues

His main concern was for the financial future of an independent Scotland.

As I noted in my August column the latest census (from 2011) revealed the UK has a population of just over 63 million. Of that number only 5.3 million reside in Scotland.

“How would we pay for it (independence)? We only have approximately 2.5 million taxable persons in this country,” my friend observed.

The ‘Yes’ side was also staking Scotland’s economic future on North Sea oil and natural gas reserves which have not been proven to exist in the vast quantities some have predicted. What if the energy reserves prove to be far less than expected?

Five major banks were threatening to leave Scotland if the referendum resulted in separation. Among other key concerns for voters were whether Scotland would retain the Great Britain Pound (Salmond said “yes” most other UK leaders said “no”) as well as who would defend an independent Scotland.

The matter of citizenship was another huge issue. Would independent Scots have their own passport for example?

That was another of the many unanswered questions which prompted many to say ‘No’ to separation.

Standing alone I feel Scotland, with such a small population, would have been a lightweight on the world scene.

Evidently so did the majority of Scottish voters.

Two comedies arrive at Smiths Falls’ Station Theatre this month Arts – Educating Rita, the stage play that won the Laurence Olivier Award for Best New Comedy in 1980, and Chef, the comedic slice-of-life film that has been delighting audiences this summer, come to the Smiths Falls Station Theatre in October.

Educating Rita, by British playwright Willy Russell, features two actors whom audiences will remember for their hit performances in Looking: Katharine Coleman (Rita) and Michael Adams (Frank). The play borrows themes from George Bernard Shaw’s Pygmalion, touching lightly on issues of freedom, change, self-development, and the English class sytem. Frank is a tutor of English in his fifties whose disillusioned outlook on life drives him

to drink and bury himself in his books. Enter Rita, a forthright young hairdresser who is eager to learn. After weeks of cajoling, Rita slowly wins over the hesitant Frank with her innate insight and refusal to accept no for an answer. Their relationship as teacher and student blossoms, ultimately giving Frank a new sense of self and Rita the knowledge she so craves. The play became a hit film starring Michael Caine and Julie Walters.

“We have spent a lot of time exploring the depths of Frank and Rita’s characters,” says director Jamie Schoular. “We want to present our audience with a good representation of what playwright Russell was attempting to accomplish. Mike and Katharine have worked tremendously hard to develop their

Smiths Falls Community Theatre will present the play Educating Rita, later this month at the Station Theatre. Above, Michael Adams (Frank) and Katharine Colman (Rita) in rehearsal for the production. The student does not appear to be buying! The play runs Oct. 17, 18, 19, 24, 25 and 26.

characters, and I know that the audiences will be impressed with their realistic portrayals.

The challenge for us is to make this great piece of comedic writing come alive in a way that informs the audience on personal and societal issues that are perhaps less familiar to a Canadian audience than they would be to a British audience.”

Educating Rita will be performed at 7:30 p.m. on Oct. 17, 18, 24 and 25 and at 2 p.m. on Oct. 19 and 26. Advisory: some coarse language. Tickets are $20 for adults and for students (with ID) $10, with special group rates also available. Call The Station Theatre at 613-283-0300 for details. Tickets can be purchased at Special Greetings, 8 Russell St. East, Smiths Falls, cash only, from our website (smithsfall-

stheatre.com) via Paypal/Visa/ Mastercard, by phone at 613283-0300 via Visa/Mastercard, or at the door (subject to availability) a half-hour before the performance – cash only.

The Station Theatre’s premier film series continues on Friday, Oct. 10 and Saturday, Oct. 11, with a delightful pre-Thanksgiving treat: Chef, an audience favourite at many recent festivals.

Chef tells the story of a troubled man who loses his job at a highend restaurant only to find himself remaining dedicated to his craft by starting up a food truck service in his area. As the scenes unfold, he attempts to repair the damage done to his estranged family in this story of steadfast determination and a will to succeed in both personal and professional areas of life. This

movie boasts a great ensemble cast starring Jon Favreau, John Leguizamo, Scarlett Johansson, Dustin Hoffman, Sofia Vergara, Oliver Platt and Robert Downey Jr. Tickets for the movie, sold only at the door, at 53 Victoria Avenue, Smiths Falls are $10 for adults and $5 for students (with ID). Showtime is 7:30 p.m.

We invite patrons to join us in our two exciting film and play offerings in the month of October and to keep in touch with all our upcoming shows – outstanding plays, great movies, and special events – by signing up for our e-newsletter through a visit to our web page at smithsfallstheatre.com or by joining us on Facebook (Smiths Falls Community Theatre).

News – The region’s children’s hospital is experiencing a spike in visits to its emergency room by children experiencing respiratory illness, prompting staff to put outbreak measures in place to curb the spread of infection.

There have been no new confirmed cases of a serious respiratory virus infection, known as enterovirus D68, following the recent successful treat-

ment of four children late last month.

However, three patients have come down with hospital-associated respiratory illnesses at the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario. The hospital reports all three are doing well.

The hospital last week reported 25 patients are being treated for respiratory illness.

While multiple respiratory viruses are currently making the rounds in the community, which the hospital says

The Break It Off campaign encourages young adult smokers to “break off” their bad relationship with smoking and stay smoke-free.

“Twenty per cent of Canadian young adults aged 20 to 24 smoke, though smoking is at an all-time low, we can do better and encourage more people to quit. Staying smoke-free is one of the single best things an individual can do to improve his or her health. I am proud to promote this national campaign to protect and improve their health,” Adams said.

New to the campaign is a Break It Off Facebook event listing on the Healthy Canadians Facebook page, where users can find out when the campaign will have local events in their community, post content on smoking cessation and engage with others who are trying to quit.

What is breast cancer?

Breast cancer starts in the cells of the breast. The breast tissue covers an area larger than just the breast. It extends up to the collarbone and from the armpit across to the breastbone in the centre of the chest. The breasts sit on the chest muscles that cover the ribs. Each breast is made of glands, ducts (thin tubes) and fatty tissue. Lobules are groups of glands that can produce milk.

Milk flows from the lobules through a network of ducts to the nipple. The nipple is in the centre of a darker area of skin called the areola. Fatty tissue fills the spaces between the lobules and ducts and protects them.

A woman’s breasts may feel different at different times of her menstrual cycle, sometimes becoming lumpy just before her period. Breast tissue also changes with age. Breast tissue in younger women is mostly made of glands and milk ducts, but older women’s breasts are made up mostly of fatty tissue.

The breasts also contain lymph vessels and lymph nodes, which are part of the lymphatic system.

The lymphatic system helps fight infections. Lymph vessels move lymph fluid to the lymph nodes.

Lymph nodes trap bacteria, cancer cells and other harmful substances. There are groups of lymph nodes near the breast under the arm, near the collarbone and in the chest behind the breastbone.

Cancer cells may start within the ducts (this is called ductal carcinoma) or in the lobules (lobular carcinoma). Ductal carcinoma is the most common type of breast cancer.

The information in this section is about ductal and lobular carcinomas. Other types of cancer such as inflammatory breast cancer and Paget’s disease, behave differently and may need different treatment. For more information about other types of breast cancer, call our Cancer Information Services 1 888 939-3333 or e-mail info@cis.cancer.ca.

other genres. Ken Whiteley, veteran musician said of her “... The essence of Ms. Klein’s legacy in the folk music world was her acknowledgement of formidable but undiscovered links between genres, disciplines and cultures in the presentation of live events.�

Mitch Podolak, creator of Winnipeg and Vancouver Folk Festivals stated “In many ways what she did was establish a footprint. I don’t even think she did it consciously. You can find Estelle’s foot print at every festival in Canada.� In later years, she worked with the Ontario Arts Council and the Canada Council for the Arts. She was also involved in arts programming for the Ontario Science Centre and Toronto’s Harbourfront Centre.

R0012927186_1002

share the same sentiment and wish to jointly show their gratefulness. In the music world there are awards like the Junos, Grammys, Country Music Awards we hear heaps about...business driven.

In creative arts, tribute mechanisms not only acknowledge the artists successes but also have accolades to those people whose creativity, vision and, sometimes just daring to try something different, are rewarded for their bravery.

These visionaries are the ones who find ways to develop galleries, drama stages, festivals, concerts of all description; their genius allowing us, Joe Q public, throughout populated areas large and small, urban or remote – varying opportunities to broaden our own awareness – challenge and stimulate our communities. Their creations, often affordable situations – wherever – bring us together with artists. If its worth repeating, it will give birth to opportunities for artists to earn supportive fans so a living which allows artists to continue to create. One begets the other.

In the Canadian folk music world one such award is the Estelle Klein Award, presented annually by Folk Music Ontario. (For those who may be new to this column, my wife Susan and I have been presenting house concerts for the past 12 years.) When we first heard about house concerts my far better half and I attended one in Yarker, hosted by musician Gary Rasberry back in 2003 featuring the unique Great Uncles of the Revolution (Jesse Zubot, Steve Dawson, Kevin Turcotte and Andrew Downing).

While there I was reunited with “the Queen Mother of Canadian folk music�, an attendee whom I’d met several

times previous at the Ontario Council of Folk Festivals Conferences (now called Folk Music Ontario). She’d driven a fair distance alone to get there because she loved the music offered. Seventythree years young, Estelle Klein was her name. Over the years I’d learned from others (because she wouldn’t tell you herself) of this white-haired “granny’s� impact on folk music the past 50 years.

The stories she could tell. After being an inaugural adviser in 1961, she became artistic director of the now infamous Mariposa Folk Festival from 1964 to 1980 and during that time created a template for folk festivals everywhere to follow. It was her vision that brought workshops during the day and concerts in the evening.

Estelle was a fierce advocate for traditional music while also exploring

Lifestyle – Just got back from riding my bike around town and you couldn’t chip the smile from my face as I wear the joy of being able to enjoy the vivid colours, daily becoming more opulent, bursting all over our extremely scenic, vintage burg.

I’m grateful for every day and have always prided myself in taking time to appreciate what we have around us, those simple things such as the autumn colours, whether on trees or fallen leaves floating by in streams, the quest of a leaf’s final voyage somewhere unknown via the whim of the flowing current. Could be just a unique shadow on a wall or a person’s actions. Those who know me will attest to my often pointing out something that caught my interest, in the moment‌while I can, while it’s still there to be beheld...easily distracted, yes, but also grateful for what I experience.

It’s so important we recognize the wonderful things around us‌people too, while we can. Too often I’ve heard how mourners at funerals are sad they “didn’t get the chanceâ€? to tell someone how much they were appreciated. There’s usually a ‘chance’. We just don’t make the time or we’re too uncomfortable to verbalize our gratefulness for someone’s character and actions.

This point was drawn home beautifully by musician Terry Tufts at a memorial for the late Ottawa Valley legend, Chopper McKinnon. He suggested we start thanking those who inspire or we just appreciate now, not wait until they pass. He wrote a song in tribute to Chopper, called I Love You All. Its chorus states this so well... “I love you all And I’m telling you because I have to say it now ‘Cause shoulda-coulda never does.

So thank you for the chance to Get ‘er down and get ‘er done And say how much I love you all Before we all move on.�

Gratefulness. Always, it starts with one person sharing theirs. Others may

Celebrations and special events are times when these guidelines can help you make decisions about drinking alcohol.

Knowing your limits and standard drink sizes, can help you make the right decisions for you. You can reduce your risk of harm or injury, by limiting alcoholic drinks to no more than 3 drinks for women or 4 drinks for men on special occasions.

Consider these safe tips when hosting or drinking: Have limits for yourself and stick to them.

Try a ‘spacer’ – for every drink with alcohol have an alcohol free drink like water or juice. Drink slowly & have no more than 2 drinks with alcohol in any 3 hours.

Avoid drinking games that require ‘chugging’. Enjoy many mocktail recipes you can find on our website at www.healthunit.org.

Eating before and while you are drinking is important. You can also talk to your health care provider to find out more about how alcohol affects your health.

Make sure everyone has a safe ride home.

She was later one of the creative forces for ArtsCan Circle, an ongoing program that brings hope through music and creative arts to aboriginal youth in northern Canada. Quite a lady.

In 2000, the Ontario Council of Folk Festivals Conferences honoured her with their first Lifetime Achievement Award and named it after her. She died in 2004, the year after I’d last seen her at that house concert. Many well deserved recipients have received the Estelle Klein Award since, including the late Jackie Washington, Ian Tamblyn, Ken Whiteley, the late Stan Rogers, Ottawa Folklore Centre’s creator Arthur McGregor and producer Paul Mills, to name a few.

This year, I nominated Ottawa’s own Harvey Glatt, for this award. Harvey has been a supporter of music in the Ottawa area for most his life. Starting as a DJ on CFRA as a teen, he started Treble Clef Records in 1957 which grew to a 15-store chain. He was a partner in Le

Hibou, the infamous Ottawa coffee house that helped many a musician get their start. He later promoted live concerts, his first being Pete Seeger in 1957, which later developed into Bass Clef Promotions that went on to bring tons of world entertainment to Ottawa. Through his promotion, if I understand correctly, David Wiffen and Bruce Cockburn started their careers with The Children. In 1977 he started CHEZ- FM radio in Ottawa.

He now is involved with True North Records. Though just turning 80, he still gets out to hear musicians around Ottawa…

He has been involved with many radio stations, record companies throughout Canada and is a legend in this field. He definitely deserves being recognized…always friendly and approachable, I’ve sat and chatted with him on several occasions. Way beyond due, I’m thrilled to say he was chosen and will receive the prestigious Estelle Klein Award at the Folk Music Ontario Conference in Toronto, in October. For

that, I’m grateful.

“Community Support Month” has kicked o� in Ontario with October 1st being celebrated as the “United Nations (UN) International Day of Older Persons”. This statement may not mean anything to you, but it should, and here’s why.

“By 2050, the number of older persons will be twice the number of children in developed countries, and the number of older persons in developing countries is expected to double. This trend will have profound e�ects on countries and individuals.”

United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon The UN statistics also show that in just 15 years, by 2030, fully 20 % of the global population will be over the age of 60.

Locally in Mississippi Mills, we are well ahead of this trend with 34% of the total population over the age of 55 as of 2011. Creating communities that are able to deal well with an aging population will become essential and doing it now means being prepared. These communities are appropriately called” age-friendly”.

Mills Community Support, along with a very committed network of Community Partners, strongly support the creation of AFC through their day-to-day activities in North Lanark with programming, events and initiatives that address these key features. Over the next month, a series of articles will be running in this space that will provide details on those programs, services and most importantly, the impact on our community members that these activities have.

They are: 1. Outdoor spaces and public buildings that are pleasant, clean, secure and physically accessible.

2. Public transportation that is accessible and a�ordable.

3. Housing that is a�ordable, appropriately located, well built, well designed and secure.

Community – There are many ways and places to volunteer in our community. Big Brothers Big Sisters is one of those places. Mike Poulin, a local retiree in Smiths Falls has been been an inschool mentor for over a year. He tells his story well…

“If having fun with a neat young man is mentoring, then that’s what I’m doing.

For the past couple of school years, Matthew and I have been getting together for an hour a week to explore different ways of having fun. In the process, we have learned to trust each other, tried a few things that worked well and decided to not bother with activities neither of us enjoyed. I suppose that lessons have been learned along the way, for both of us, but only as a by-product of learning to play.

Big Brothers and Big Sisters has provided a framework within which the school mentoring program provides an opportunity for Matthew and other children to interact with older individuals on a consistent basis. The outcomes for students like Matthew, appear evident, in terms of school attendance and productivity.

And, in case I haven’t mentioned it, we both seem to be having fun along the way.”

Big Brothers Big Sisters in-school mentoring program is a wonderful way to connect with a child for only a small commitment of about one hour per week. In-school mentoring matches caring adults or mature teens with a child in a local community school. Each week, a mentor spends time with their mentee doing crafts, baking, playing games, playing sports or simply just talking about their week. The school provides an ideal place for a friendship to develop and can help young people build self confidence, feel valued and have something special to look forward to each week.

Big Brothers Big Sisters’ mentors come from every area of the community, all ages and varied backgrounds. Sometimes we think, “Well what would I do with a child or youth?” The answer is simple. You would take an hour of your time to come and hang out with a great kid who needs a friend. That is really all they are looking for. Please contact us at the agency for more information about becoming an in school mentor today. It’s never too late or too soon to start something!

Hospital celebrates long-term employees, retiring CEO

Desmond Devoy

desmond.devoy@metroland.com

News – It wasn’t a kiss-and-makeup, but rather, a kiss of respect and best wishes.

Herve Cavanagh was on hand at the annual service recognition awards for the Perth and Smiths Falls District Hospital at Camp Merrywood in Port Elmsley, Drummond/North Elmsley Township on Thursday, Sept. 25, firstly to collect his 15-year service pin, but also to represent two of the hospital’s unions, the locals for the Ontario Public Service Employees Union (OPSEU) and the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE).

The awards marked the last that would be presided over by the hospital’s chief executive officer and president, Linda Bisonette, who leaves on Oct. 31.

“We’ve had our disagreements,” Cavanagh admitted during his speech, looking at Bisonette. But “I want to make sure,” that people are aware that “I’ve always respected you and what you have done for the hospital,” he said.

As a French-Canadian, he later gave her a customary kiss on each cheek, a mark of respect for a woman – followed by another round, with a third round only pre-empted by a fit of giggles on her part.

Earlier in his remarks, Cavanagh stated that “health care has changed a lot,” mentioning the service cuts across the industry, which also saw 12 beds closed at his own hospital. He commended the work done by his union’s members, and other staffers, since “there are things that the public doesn’t get to see or hear.”

When he is helping a patient who is unsteady on his or her feet, he has seen maintenance workers rushing over with

a chair when they falter, or a dietician picking garbage off of the floor.

“It’s not the work that we do, it’s the work that we do that we are not supposed to do but we do do because we care,” he said.

Bisonette said that the event was one of her two favourite events of the hospital year as leader – the other being the annual Christmas children’s party.

“Tonight is your night to celebrate your achievements,” she said. “Your abilities, and your enthusiasm are the key to our success.”

Mary Lou White spoke for the Ontario Nurses’ Association (ONA), and her fellow nurses, and the duality that is their life. On the one hand, nurses can multi-task in a busy environment, “but you screw up the recipe for Rice Krispy squares.” On one hand, a nurse may need a doctor’s note to administer Tylenol, but can operate heart equipment on their own. Further to this, “you spend all day on your feet, but your personal physician tells you you need to get more exercise.”

Nurses also get adept at figuring things out on the fly, things that are not taught at school, such as deciphering doctor’s handwriting “that resembles graffiti on a dumpster.”

On a more serious note though, for nurses, “our patients often become an extended family,” and that, for all their intelligence and training, nothing can replace the human touch.

In the end, “we are just humans who care,” she said.

Richard Schooley, the chairman of the hospital’s board of directors, thanked the nurses and other staff: “Your contribution is very important to us. You have seen and enabled huge changes,” which

have led to the hospital providing “national standard health care.”

Dr. Peter Roney, the hospital’s chief of staff, called the night a “celebration of your demonstration to our hospital,

our patients, and our community… We are obligated to care for the most vulnerable in our society: the sick.”

He relayed how, just that month, he spoke to a man from Kingston “who will

Kidney walkers raised more than $11,000 for research and support ljweir@metroland.com

Community â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Members of the community gathered at Crystal Palace in Perth on Sunday, Sept.

28 to pay homage to those living with kidney disease.

The annual Give the Gift of Life walk for the Kidney Foundation raised $11,000 this year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We were thrilled with the turnout and the amount raised,â&#x20AC;? said Cindy Rivington, this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s local walk chair.

Rivington helped her husband John who was in need of a new kidney, when in 2009, she was able to give one of hers. John was the 2012 ambassador for the Perth/Smiths Falls area. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Johnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s doing well,â&#x20AC;? said Cindy, but he wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t able to walk on this sunny Sunday. He did plan to join the crew for lunch as they fed about 100 patients from the dialysis unit at the Smiths Falls hospital. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something new,â&#x20AC;? said Ken Mylrea, a board member and chair of the Ottawa zone. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want to bring awareness about kidney disease and to help raise money for research. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why events like these are so important.â&#x20AC;?

Mylrea said the Kidney Foundation is working on a cure with the funds that are raised locally. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Is there hope? Treatments are not cures; now we are looking at genetics and can we change the way the

Dentistry @ Smiths Falls

gene works.â&#x20AC;?

The foundation can help families and individuals with financial aid, transportation issues and work related hardships,â&#x20AC;? Mylrea noted, who was encouraging people to sign up to be a donor at www.beadonor.ca. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Registering is easy; the life you save could be your own,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All you have to do is register.â&#x20AC;?

Kim Goebel and her daughter, Bryn of Perth took part in the walk. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m walking for my daughter,â&#x20AC;? Kim said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She was born with just one kidney, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fully functioning.â&#x20AC;?

This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ambassadors were a grandpa and granddaughter team from Smiths Falls, John Wargati and Courtney Doyle, 12, who was in a wrist cast to her elbow after doing some gymnastics and landing wrong. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I did this on Tuesday, I think,â&#x20AC;? she said.

Wargati said he was glad to get out and participate, but he wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t going to walk the course.

Last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ambassador was at the event with his team of supports who raised $2,000.

Caleb Robson and his family made the trip from Smiths Falls, and even his donor sister Jodi Neddo of the Athens area was on hand. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m doing great,â&#x20AC;? Robson said, who received his sisterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kidney last spring.

Debbie Hutchings wants to put life experience to work for township model in innovative environment, water and land stewardship solutions. At the same time we must stay community minded and strive to be one of the best places to start a business, live and raise a family.

News - The following (edited) information was submitted by Rideau Lakes Township councillor candidate, Debbie Hutchings and continues our coverage of the 2014 municipal election. It came from an emailed interview conducted by the Record News.

Question 1: Can you give me a brief biography on yourself?

Answer: I am a farmer, entrepreneur, businesswoman, visionary and inventor. I am a fifth generation, born and raised on the Hutchings homestead that was cleared by my great, great grandfather in the early 1800s. I raise and sell honeybees. I own and operate Debbee’s Bees, a beekeeping supply store and I invented BeeDry, a wrap that protects bees in their hives during winter, which is currently being sold by mail order and through other beekeeping supply stores across Canada.

I’ve been married 29 years, am a mother of three grown girls, and blessed with grandchildren.

I live on a 60-acre farm with horses, sheep, chickens, and about 40 hives of bees. I worked as a licensed heavy equipment operator and presently spend winters driving snowplow.

Question 5: Is there anything you would like voters to know before they go to the poles this fall?

Answer: I would like the voters of all wards in the Township of Rideau Lakes to consider the

Debbie Hutchings priority issues you would like to work on if you are elected and why they are so important to you?

Answer: I have a passion for these three priority issues and would like to work on them, if elected: environment (land, water, natural resources); rural agriculture; and small business/tourism.

Question 2: Is this your first election and why have you chosen to run in this year’s election?

Answer: I have felt called all my life to run for council, but this is my first time. I love the land and the people and want to serve, listen, represent, and be a part of Rideau Lakes’ future. We live and have the most beautiful place in the world! There Question 4: Where do you see your commuis nowhere like it. nity in 10 to 20 years?

The Very Worshipful Bro. Don Russells, Worshipful Master of St. Francis Lodge in Smiths Falls (left) and the Right Worshipful Bro. Jack Smith, District Deputy Grand Master of St. Lawrence district (right) pose in the lodge room on Russell Street. The lodge is marking its 175th anniversary in the community. warrants establishing the club, medals and other unique items depicting the history of this fraternal organization are currently on display at the Old Slys Road museum and accessible with regular admission.

These items, like the history books themselves, tell a story of the lodge’s growth. The popularity of the lodge (originally established in the village of St. Francis, which became part of Smiths Falls) and the value of brotherhood encouraged continued growth in membership to the point where a second lodge known as Osiris Lodge No. 489 was formed in Smiths Falls in 1908. This lodge was once again folded back into St. Francis Nov. 21, 2002 in light of declining membership, however Almey said this trend seems to be turning on its head once again now that veterans are returning from service overseas.

“We’re going through a period now of regrowth and revitalization,” Almey said.

The commitment to faith, hope and charity has spoken to many men in the community as it did Almey when he originally joined in Ottawa in the mid-1970s. At that time he served as a police officer often being stationed in different communities across Canada for years at a time.

“Where ever I went I automatically had a home; a connection,” Almey said of his Masonic brethren.

St. Francis Lodge continues to offer this to its members and welcomes anyone interested in learning more to come out to a meeting or join them Oct. 18 for an evening of celebration.

The anniversary celebration will take place at the Smiths Falls Golf & Country Club where the current Deputy Grand Master will address the crowd. Tickets are $40 and can be purchased by contacting Weagle at 613-283-5220.

News - After over 17 decades of ‘making good men better’ through community support, St. Francis Masonic Lodge invites the community of Smiths Falls to join them in marking 175 years at a black tie evening Oct. 18.

“There’s a lot of pride,” said Paul Weagle, lodge member.

The Masonic Lodge is open to any man who aims to live by the golden rule (do unto others as you would have them do to you) through the teachings of their chosen faith.

“If you have a nephew or friend who has shown an interest in masonry it’s a good time to come out,” Weagle said of the upcoming celebration evening.

Ken Almey has been a mason since the mid-1970s and is currently secretary of the St. Francis Lodge. He sees this anniversary year as an opportunity to celebrate the impact the masons have had in building the community while looking toward the future.

“It’s a time of reflection at the same time it’s a time of renewal,” Almey said.

St. Francis Masonic Lodge has a long history to reflect upon. Many say you can understand the development of the region by the history of the lodge.

“The lodge began, like the country, under the rule of the British Empire,” reads a historical article from the lodge.

It’s original number was 17, but was changed to 24 when the Grand Lodge of Canada was established in 1855. The very founding of the lodge on Dec. 27, 1839 coincides with the end of the rebellion and the war of 1812.

“The summer before we were formed our Worshipful Master… was down serving in a battle in Prescott,” Almey recounts.

He is referring to W. Bro. James Shaw, the lodge’s first Worshipful Master who ultimately became a Senator in 1867 when the R. Hon. J.A. MacDonald appointed him to the Senate of Canada as a Conservative Senator. He served as Senator until his death Feb. 6, 1878.

The lodge’s first meeting was held at Bro. Arthur Wall’s Inn (located beside Rob Roy’s today).

“It was part of the beginning of the town. In fact, it pre-dates the foundations of the town,” Almey said of the lodge.

In 1912 the lodge paid to have the foundation poured and roof put on the town’s first hospital after the smallpox epidemic came through the region. In later years it provided ongoing support to St. Francis Hospital by purchasing furnishings, linens, etc. for the Masonic Ward. Over the years the lodge has also supported the Children’s Aid Society, Order of Victorian Nurses and for many years operated a cancer transportation unit, which was dedicated to ensuring area residents fighting cancer didn’t have to worry about getting to and from appointments.

“Another interesting fact is that during the Second World War the lodge paid for linens and bedding for the corvette HMCS Smiths Falls,” the history article reads.

Don’t suffer in silence; help is out there

E

ditorial – Let’s talk. It’s something so simple, but more of us need to do it. This stigma against not expressing how we feel or what we’re going through needs to stop. Mental illness can affect all of us at some time or another, whether it’s personally or through a family member, friend or co-worker. In fact, according to the Canadian Mental Health Association, 20 per cent of Canadians will experience some sort of mental illness in their lifetime. That’s a significant number.

Global Suicide Prevention Day was recently observed Sept. 10, so the topics of mental health and depression have been in the news of late, but this is a good thing. The veil should be lifted on the embarrassment or shame people feel if they experience some form of depression or mental illness.

Unfortunately, there are many others who suffer in silence and don’t seek help until it’s too late. People like Carleton Place teen Brett Pearson or high-profile celebrities including Robin Williams.

That’s why events such as last weekend’s annual Brett Pearson Run for Your Life are so critical. For the past four years, Brett’s mom, Nicole Pearson, has been organizing the run through town as a way to break down the barriers of suicide. This year, half of the funds raised will go to the Military Family Resource Centre to help men and women combat Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Each year, the run features a guest speaker and this year, Master Corporal Jody Mitic, a contestant on Amazing Race Canada last year, was in attendance. Mitic, currently running for councillor in an Ottawa ward, lost both his legs in Afghanistan in 2007 after stepping on a landmine.

As a Canadian Forces sniper, Mitic admits to suffering from depression but hasn’t been diagnosed with PTSD. His best advice: Talk about your feelings and what happened, and when you see someone else who needs help, pay attention to the signs and give them the support they need. He also believes if there were as many mental health facilities as physical health ones, there would be fewer suicides.

PTSD is perhaps one of the biggest taboo subjects surrounding mental health. Retired Canadian Forces LieutenantGeneral Roméo Dallaire has been instrumental in bringing the understanding of PTSD to the public as he and many soldiers come to terms with what they’ve seen while serving in the military. Witnessing a friend being killed in front of you or children being recruited for an army in war-torn countries aren’t things easily forgotten. Living in conditions where your life could be extinguished at any time and seeing so many brutal acts and then being asked to return home and pick up where you left off isn’t realistic. There needs to be support for our troops when they come home, to know they aren’t alone and that there are services to help them deal with what happened. The Canadian Mental Health Association states that cognitive-therapy counselling that teaches people how to work through their thoughts and feelings, as well as support groups and sometimes medication, can be powerful tools.

However, PTSD isn’t strictly limited to our troops, first responders or emergency personnel. Anyone who has gone through a traumatic event, whether it’s an abusive relationship or they are held captive for a period of time or watched a loved one battle a long illness is subject to the effects. Trauma can have a powerful hold on the brain and saying “just get over it” isn’t helpful. It’s not always that easy.

Often, watching someone suffering from depression or mental illness can be difficult. How do you help them? Simply by being there for them and understanding what they’re going through, says the Canadian Mental Health Association. Forcing a person to seek treatment or pushing unwanted advice on them can have adverse effects. Reading about how depression can affect a person and doing some research can let you see what they are feeling, but also telling them you’re there to listen when they’re ready can make a big difference.

Don’t suffer in silence. Tell someone what you’re going through. There is help out there.

It’s all about the pie

ifestyle - So my mom wanted her septic tank pumped, but before that could happen, she had to uncover the lids. To do that, she enlisted the help of my partner in crime, my sweet baby, the love of my life... and all those other terms of endearment, ya, my guy, to do just that.

He has the pipes for it. Afterall, he’s a construction dude, and a bull to boot. He likes this sort of thing.

And that’s a good thing too, because, well for Mom or me to do this little project, it would have taken us the better part of the afternoon... after stopping for numerous gold beverage breaks. It may have even got pushed to Sunday.

Saturday after I finished my day at the office, we made the trip to Mom’s and within 10 minutes, he had it dug up.

“What do I owe you?” Mom asks my guy.

“Nothing. Oh, wait! How about a pie?”

“I can do a pie,” she says.

They decide upon lemon.

So Mom, not wanting to owe anyone a debt, had the freshly-made pie to my house

LAURIE WEIR Weir View by noon the next day. I was off to work again, and the plan was a barbecue that night, with the lemon pie as the kicker.

After my hockey game - Canadians were defeated by Gloucester, 1-0 - I got home in time to do some prepping for the barbecue.

Looking in the fridge, I couldn’t see where Mother had put the pie. Not on any kitchen counter, or in the fridge.

I trekked to my guy’s house - who was having a cat nap on the couch - laden with barbecue stuff, unloaded and was about to call Mom as to the whereabouts of the pie.

“Hey babe,” he says, all bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. “Did you bring the pie?”

Hmm... he’s smiling way too much.

“No, actually. I can’t find it. I’m just going

to call Mom and see where it’s at.”

(I’m starting to talk like a Newfie... blame him.)

He laughes... right out loud.

I open his fridge, and there in all its glory is Mom’s lemon pie. Well, most of it.

“Busted! Here I was all concerned that I was losing my mind, when in fact you are the guilty pie thief.”

Not only did he have the audacity to yank the pie from my fridge (he has his own key, but that wasn’t the issue); he had to share it with all the neighbours! OK, only one neighbour, but still! I was smoked. (Not really, I pretended.)

I called Mom. I was going to tell on him yes, just like grade school.

“Mom, where did you put the pie?”

“It’s in the fridge.”

My guy’s laughing in the background.

“The only thing wrong with the pie, is that there was only one of them,” he says.

Mom’s laughing by now at the big joke.

“Jerry loved it,” my guy says of his neighbour, who also had a slice. “Can you make a chocolate one next time, or butterscotch?”

Letter to the Editor

Heritage House is our memory box Heritage House Museum is not just a tourist destination. Behind its walls, we find important documents, pictures, artifacts and stories of our past. In my work to preserve local history, I found that these stories and pictures from our elders connect us to our past and to our present. Our history is fragile and if it is lost then we’ll be a town without character or a face.

The museum does attract visitors and citizens. It is a show place with over 5,000 visitors last year; but it is also a community museum providing workshops and day camps for children and adults. There is not enough space to give you a full report but go to the website and look at the “Year in Review” for 2012 and 2013. There are workshops during March Break, backyard history day camps (134 kids), a school education program on pioneer and Victorian Christmas (116 kids). Heritage House provided bus tours, family demonstrations and much more.

In partnership with Heritage House different community groups put together exhibits to showcase their histories. We also need to think ahead to 2017 when we celebrate Canada’s 150th birthday.

Who will co-ordinate our town efforts? Who will be planning activities for this celebration?

It is a well-oiled operation that depends on volunteers and grants to succeed. It requires an experienced and knowledgeable hand at the rudder. For 2013, Heritage House received $127,736 in grants to carry out various projects and initiatives, and to hire local summer students. Funders don’t give money easily. Through hard work and knowledge, our professionally trained staff of one with volunteers applies for these grants to various governments and

departments. To receive the largest of these grants, the museum must be open year-long. If the museum is closed during the winter months, valuable time to plan workshops, field requests from near and far; and write those grants that bring in all those extra dollars and labour won’t happen.

The importance to the community can be measured by the number of involved volunteers who participate in its success. Volunteers put in 2,665 plus hours. They are an invaluable resource. They believe in the importance of local history and the importance of Heritage House to the community and are willing to work for it.

Does this sound like an unused building – a drain on community funds? No, the cost of Heritage House is but a small percentage of the larger budgets for other activities.

Heritage House has grown to become an important part of the community and of our history. Let’s think ahead to what we are leaving our children and grandchildren. Can we destroy their roots and connections to the community? Don’t new residents deserve to know and explore the history of their new community? Where will the artifacts go? Who will catalogue and store them properly? Will it become just a warehouse with little to offer the community?

Heritage House is our memory box. Stories, pictures and artifacts of our town’s history find a home here. We must maintain it well. Future generations will treasure and learn from what Heritage House can offer them.

Sincerely, Valerie Hudson Montague, ON

Smith looks at growth in development News - The following (edited) information was submitted by Rideau Lakes Township councillor candidate, Paul Smith and continues our coverage of the 2014 municipal election.

Question 1: Can you give me a brief biography on yourself?

Answer: I have been a resident of South Elmsley ward in the Township of Rideau Lakes for the past 46 years; retired for 16 years after having taught music (instrumental and vocal) in Smiths Falls at SFDCI and the elementary schools for almost 35 years. I have served 12 years on South Elmsley Township council, eight as deputy reeve and, after amalgamation, 16 years on Rideau Lakes council – four as deputy reeve.

Current chair of the Rideau Lakes Police Services Board and chaired many other committees over the years; helped to form the original recreation and fire agreements with Smiths Falls and was a pioneer of roadside pick up for recycling and waste. I am married to Jackie and we have four grown daughters, two granddaughters and three grandsons. I still direct the SFDCI Reunion Band and work as chair of the board of directors and various committees at the First Baptist Church in Smiths Falls; like to boat, fish, golf and work on our small hobby farm near Lombardy.

Answer: I have decided to rerun in this year’s election because I enjoy serving the public and being their voice on council. (Smith) likes meeting people and would like to see the projects started by the present council brought to completion.

Question 3: Can you explain your top three priority issues you would like to work on if you are elected and why they are so important to you?

Answer: I am concerned about the roads in the township and would like to see our ambitious road program completed in the next few years. I also want to see the high standard of policing that is now present in Rideau Lakes continued for the safe environment that is now enjoyed by all. I would like to see both residential and commercial growth in the township as a larger assessment is healthy and keeps the taxes down, and would like to see increased facilities for seniors throughout the township like the one that was built in Elgin. Increased tourist facilities such as parks, improved public docking and other recreational entities would be a plus in the next four years.

News - James Benda already knows there are many challenges, but looks forward to facing these with the good of the community-as-a-whole in mind.

“I want to be your representative at the table,” Benda said. “It’s a no-nonsense, logical approach to spending and decision making.”

In particular, he is concerned with anyone on a fixed income and the ever-increasing costs of living.

“It is our duty as a municipality to control our costs and the costs that are passed on to our residents,” Benda said.

If elected on council, Benda would like to steer away from additional borrowing and focus instead on promoting the town outside its borders to attract new residential development, particularly for young families.

“I believe our ability to attract young families to Smiths Falls will play an important role in our future. Creating a demand to reside in our town could drive up construction starts similar to other bedroom communities such as the Kemptville area, which had over 200 new starts just two years ago. Future growth will be key to increasing our tax base and improving our bottom line,” Benda said.

As a single father of two young boys he is keenly aware of what families need and want in the future development of their community.

“Compared to other communities we have so many great resources to offer: the Rideau Canal, library, airport, parks, museums and so much more.

Moving forward it’s up to us to bring the PR to the next level and show our attributes in the best light possible,” Benda said.

Commuter rail will be a key element to attracting working professionals and families who desire the lifestyle a small town affords them, but must leave the community for employment opportunities.

“I think there’s so much potential that it just needs to be directed in the right way,” Benda add-

Gary Bisonette looks back on a career in parks and recreation sroy@perfprint.ca

News - It’s all fun and games when you’re the facilities superintendent of parks and recreation.

That’s how Gary Bisonette has seen his 38-year career with the Smiths Falls parks and recreation department.

“It really is a dream job,” Bisonette added. “Time just flew by.”

The local resident and long-time employee has seen job titles change and services improve, but there are a couple of key projects that Bisonette looks back on as career highlights.

“The thing that I’m really most proud of is the new arena,” he said.

The facility, while costly, has proved to be an asset to the town with a diversity of events taking place for all ages. One of these events is the 2014 Tankard curling tournament that came to town this past February. The event pushed town staff to the limit in terms of learning to make curling ice and completely transforming the space from a hockey rink to a curling

surface in just six hours. Not only did it underline the team environment at the rink it also demonstrated to the community and those beyond what is possible at the new facility.

“I think that is the biggest thing we’ll have in the arena for a long time,” Bisonette said.

Working with his peers in parks and recreation has been a joy for the outgoing superintendent who says he will particularly miss his morning coffee with staff when he arrives at 6:30 a.m.

“What I’m going to miss is the people,” Bisonette added.

“It’s been a team here.”

The veteran department staffer has only worked with two bosses in his 38-year career and primarily with Rick St. Dennis who retired earlier this year. Margo Loughren has been his administrative assistant for 25-years and will be able to provide continuity in the department once her boss retires this week.

“Margo has been a great support,” Bisonette said.

sonette wasn’t confident in the success of the splash pad initially, but today says: I had to eat my words because it’s the most fabulous thing that we did.”

Going forward, Bisonette would like the department to finish linking up the walking paths through town and then focus on ensuring the existing parks and recreation infrastructure is available for generations to come.

“What I’d really like to see them do is maintain the high quality standard of everything we have now,” Bisonette added. “There’s stuff that needs to be done.”

By his count there hasn’t been any significant maintenance in the department for about 10-years and the tennis courts are starting to show their age.

While Tuesday, Sept. 30

was Bisonette’s final day he doesn’t plan to walk out the door forever just yet. He is committed to seeing the Gerry Lowe Memorial Sens Rink to its opening day later this year.

“I started it so I want to finish it,” Bisonette said.

He will also return for a couple of days this November when the new director is expected to take their chair.

Life after retirement will be something for Bisonette to get used to, but he has a long list of projects at home to complete before his wife, Linda joins him when she retires from the Perth & Smiths Falls District Hospital at the end of October.

At the end of February the retired couple will travel to Florida over a month for an extended vacation.

Question 1: Can you give me a brief biography on yourself?

Answer: I was born in Almonte (both my parents and many relatives are from Lanark County) and most of my upbringing was in Ottawa.

My wife and I both retired from the federal civil service four years ago. We sold our downtown home and moved to Montague into a new house that we had local trades people build. We absolutely love living in Montague Township.

My work career started at OC Transpo (promoted from: driver, instructor, and my last five years as a transit supervisor). During those 17 years at OC I attended the University of Ottawa and obtained two degrees: B.A. Communication; B.Education & Ontario Teachers Certificate; and started my M.A. Communication (Media Studies) at Concordia University in Montreal. I spent several years teaching high school during the day and then work the late shift as an OC supervisor. Wanting to diversify my teaching skills I left OC and moved to Japan for three years to teach English to workers in a manufacturing plant. When I returned to Ottawa I completed my MA; continued teaching; opened an e-commerce business and a retail store; drove a tractor trailer throughout the USA/Canada for a year, and then I was successful in getting a position at Health Canada.

I spent the bulk of my federal government career working at Transport Canada and at Treasury Board Secretariat as an Access to Information and Privacy analyst. Currently, I have been working part-time coach bus driver doing

Jerry and Ruth Browning enjoy playing duplicate bridge and have been doing so for more than 100 years combined. can give to players who are starting to play duplicate bridge they advised them to learn to play with as few conventions as possible and only add conventions when they feel comfortable doing so. They should also play in open events as much as possible. If you always play in limited events you will never improve beyond the level you are in.

Work on your defensive game because 50 per cent of the game is defense while bidding and hand play constitute the remainder.

Bidding contributes only about two per cent

so regardless of your bidding system or your conventions variations in bidding will only effect two or three per cent of your result.

When asked about the most positive changes that have affected the playing of duplicate bridge over the years they concluded that they are the banning of smoking, computers for scoring and the use of bidding boxes and bridge scoring machines. They are also pleased that the ACBL has implemented a “zero tolerance policy” so the main goals of playing duplicate bridge is to play fair, be nice and have fun.

It has helped with respect to eliminating rudeness in tournaments and club games.

The policy should be administered with discretion and with fairness, The directors ruling on the proprieties of the game are also important in the achievements of a pleasant game atmosphere.

The Brownings concluded that the Smiths Falls and Perth duplicate bridge clubs are good examples of playing bridge as a relaxing and friendly way to spend the evening.

Most of the players are learning from their experiences while enjoying the company of friends and newer players to this wonderful game. They invite you to come play duplicate bridge-be nice, be fair, have fun and maybe even earn some master points.

Playing duplicate bridge has many benefits for couple Community - Playing duplicate bridge has many benefits especially for seniors because it not only is an excellent opportunity to exercise one’s brain but is also a good way to spend your leisure time and to meet new friends.

Jerry and Ruth Browning have been playing for 52 and 63 years respectively.

Jerry began playing duplicate bridge while in college in the mid ’50s. He and Ruth began playing duplicate bridge together in 1962 when they moved to Kenora, Ontario.

They saw an ad in the local paper for a duplicate bridge club. They soon were not only playing but became the club manager for 10 to 15 tables each week. They also took on the challenge of running sectional tournaments sanctioned by the American Contract Bridge Club (ACBL) .

Ruth has the most master points because Jerry started directing tournaments for the ACBL so he played duplicate bridge mostly in club games. Ruth not only played club games but also played in most of the tournaments with various partners during those 34 years. Jerry has managed bridge clubs almost continuously from 1962-2007 and directed during that same period until now. Jerry also directed tournaments for the ACBL from 1960 to the present.

You’ll have future chances to chat.

Few people will accuse you of being uncommunicative, Libra. In fact, you’re usually downright chatty. It’s one of the traits people will admire most in you this week.

You have been on a shopping binge of late, Taurus. If you have unlimited funds, this would not be so problematic. But finances are tight, and you should be more cautious.

Surround yourself with children this week, Cancer. They’ll provide the unedited, honest information you desire right now. It can certainly be eye-opening.

LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23

AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18

Spend some quality time with a romantic partner this week, Leo. He or she can provide more of what you need, such as true affection and companionship, than what’s offered by friends.

It’s time to tie up some loose ends, Aquarius. Rustle up some energy to take care of all those little things that need to be wrapped up.

You’ll feel a weight lift afterward.

VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22

PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20

Virgo, you deserve credit at the office. If you’re patient, some measure of recognition will come your way this week. It’s a start to getting what you need.

News – Students of the Catholic District School Board of Eastern Ontario (CDSBEO) can be proud of their efforts and achievement in literacy this year, which continue to surpass the provincial standard and results.

This success can be attributed to the use of technology in the classroom. By changing the way that information is absorbed, processed, and used, technology is influencing how learners in the board read, write, listen, and communicate. Technology, combined with good instruction, enables students to access and use information, analyze content, work with ideas, synthesize thoughts, and communicate their thinking.

Mathematics scores reflect a pattern seen across the province. In response to the need to help our students improve their skills in mathematics, the CDSBEO recently developed a Numeracy Action Plan (NAP). The NAP highlights key areas of focus that educators will refer to in order to improve student achievement in mathematics by involving the school community.

CDSBEO continues to work to help students attain positive results. Strategies employed by the board include: after school homework clubs, higher level thinking skills resources, job-embedded professional learning that promotes best practices in reading, writing and mathematics instruction, balanced literacy, and literacy across the curriculum.

The township must achieve a better balance between our road improvement programs and capital borrowing and find ways to mitigate the impact of the new OPP costing formula for policing services. Finally, an overarching priority will be trying to reduce the regulatory burden on residents.

Question 4: How do you see your community in the next 10 to 20 years?

Answer: I’d like to see the township try to attract various types of seniors housing to the North Crosby area so that families can evolve from the traditional single family home into various levels of housing that are better suited to their changing lifestyles and health.

We must find a way to involve younger residents in the design and continued development of the community.

Question 5: Is there anything you would like voters to know before they go to the polls this fall?

Question 4: Where do you see your community in 10 to 20 years?

Answer: I see Montague continuing to grow as we see larger numbers of people transitioning from Ottawa to enjoy rural life in our township. A solid development plan and guidelines will be required so that the rural life we all enjoy can still be maintained yet allow for the growth that the township needs so services and infrastructure can continue to grow.

Question 5: Is there anything you would like voters to know before they go to the polls this fall?

Answer: I believe with a strong financial plan, accountability, open communication and a solid team concept that Montague can be taken to the next level as it continues to grow and advance the township we all call home.

News - The following edited information was submitted by Rideau Lakes Township councillor candidate, Bob Lavoie and continues our coverage of the 2014 municipal election. It came from an emailed interview conducted by the Record News.

Question 1: Biography: Answer: My wife, Barbara and I have owned property in North Crosby since 1989 and have spent many years vacationing in the area. We have lived here permanently since my retirement in 2004 from a career in national and international public service. Since relocating permanently to Rideau Lakes, I have been involved with the Ontario Trillium Foundation, both as a grant reviewer and a drafter of applications for community groups. I have been active in the Westport Lions and Royal Canadian Legion Upper Rideau Branch 542 in North Crosby.

Question 2: Why have you chosen to run in this year’s election?

Answer: This is my second election.

Over the last term of council I’ve been surprised by the wide range and complexity of issues that councillors have to deal with. Although I am pleased with much that has been accomplished, there is so much more that has to be done over the next four years. My experience will be important in dealing with major changes being forced on us by the provincial government along with reductions in funding to municipalities from

News - The following edited information was submitted by Montague Township councillor candidate, Ian Streight continues our coverage of the 2014 municipal election. It came from an emailed interview conducted by the Record News.

Question 1: Can you give me a brief biography on yourself?

Answer: I am 38 years old and have a beautiful wife and daughter. I was born and raised in Smiths Falls and nine years ago we decided to move to Montague to live where we have since purchased a small farm where we raise some sheep, cattle and do some cash cropping. I have been a volunteer firefighter for roughly 15 years, which allows me to stay active in the community while also assisting a neighbor when in need. I currently work in Ottawa at Orgaworld where I am in sales and assist with maintenance at the site. Prior to that I was the production and maintenance manager for BASF Metasheen in Smiths Falls.

Question 2: Why have you chosen to run in this year’s election?

Answer: This is my first election. I have an interest in politics and what is going on in the township and I would also like to be part of the team that helps shape Montague as it continues to grow and develop in the future.

Question 3: Can you explain your top three priority issues you would like to work on if you are elected and why they are so important to you?

Caboose restoration on display during Thanksgiving event last few years so that it can continue to grow and be self sustaining in the longterm. Shropshire said the caboose restoration is the first visible project that reflects the enormous amount of work staff and volunteers have put into the museum over the years.

Though not on the original caboose, it would have been added in later years while the rail car was still in service. irons, stair treads, platforms, and window frames.

“There was nothing to hold the glass” due to rot, Ottney said.

The entire caboose was restored to its original paint of yellow rails, maroon sides and bright red ends. The weather delayed efforts in some respects as restoration work was completed outdoors where the moving artifact is stationed.

Ottney said he has learned so much about cabooses and has enjoyed working alongside fellow volunteers, including the youth volunteers who helped this summer to stencil the rail number back onto the side. Ottney encourages more residents who are passionate about preserving local history and want to give back to their community to consider the railway museum as a beneficiary of their time. The five-year museum member emphasizes no specific skill set is

required, aside from the desire to lend a hand.

“If you can hold a paint brush that’s all that’s needed,” Ottney said.

The local resident moved to the area in 2012 following his retirement and wanted to get involved in some way. He chose to adopt the caboose project despite not having any experience in restorations of this magnitude because he felt the work would improve the museum’s curb appeal.

Shropshire has personally received positive feedback from visitors and community members who have noticed the work taking place on the grounds and suggests Ottney’s goal has been realized.

“People are starting to notice us again,” she said.

The museum has been in the process of re-establishing its foundation over the

News – An opportunity to see life on the rails as a worker on the Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) is now available at the Railway Museum of Eastern Ontario (RMEO) with the completion of a mid1940s caboose restoration.

On Oct. 11 and 12 the museum will be unveiling this project by offering caboose rides for the first time. After years of retirement the maroon and red caboose will once again be welcoming individuals to sit down from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. next weekend. This is truly a unique opportunity as cabooses were solely used by train staff to ensure the train wouldn’t derail and no fires would start. They were not open to the public.

“You’re kind of getting an experience only a railway worker would,” said Leah Lacosta, museum staff.

Riders will have the chance to sit right up in the completely restored cupola. This is where the break man would sit to ensure the load didn’t shift and no oil fires began.

“It was a very important role,” said Anne Shropshire, museum curator.

Today, cabooses are a thing of the past having been retired in favour of modern technology that constantly assesses these dangers through sensors and other means.

“That little computer has now replaced three men,” Shropshire explained.

The year-long effort to bring the caboose back to life in its physical beauty was no small task and took a handful of dedicated volunteers like Dave Thompson, Noel White, Steve Gemmill, Mike Gough and Bill Ottney and others. These men contributed at least 600 hours towards the restoration effort.

“It’s kind of a nice feeling the satisfaction your get when you take on a project,” Ottney said.

In addition to completely rebuilding the cupola, volunteers also replaced one full side of plywood, replaced the grab

to continue with this visible facelift by embarking on an exterior restoration of the Wickham car. This rail staff vehicle could be driven from both ends and was often used to help staff get to work sites on the rail line.

“Hopefully by this time next year we’ll have new paint on it,” Ottney said.

Smiths Falls Community Credit Union is first to launch paperless processing Business - Smiths Falls Community Credit Union is the first financial institution in Canada to launch paperless cheque processing.

Using a system developed by Central 1 on Sept. 18 Smiths Falls introduced the processing of cheque deposits using image processing. The change reduces paper handling and speeds processing.

“We are pleased that Smiths Falls was the first of our credit unions to pilot the use of capturing cheque images in the back office and transmitting the image, rather than sending the physical item to us for processing,” said Oscar van der Meer, chief payments and technology officer for Central 1. “We know that branch capture, as it is technically called, will be a major improvement for our members.”

The new system will allow Smiths Falls to end the use of couriers to deliver cheques to a central office for processing, saving time and money.

“I want to congratulate all the staff at Central 1 who have developed this first for the financial system and say that Smiths Falls Community Credit Unions is proud to be the first credit union to move ahead with this new technology,” said Jim Allen, chief executive officer of Smiths Falls.

Central 1 is piloting branch capture of images with other credit unions and expects a full roll out to begin in the first quarter of 2015. The branch capture solution will be rolled out to one branch of each of 200 credit unions, followed by the remaining branches.

Branch capture involves using a secure scanner to scan all cheques and transmitting the data to Central 1 for processing.

In the spring of 2013 Central 1 and Westminster Savings Credit Union were the first financial institutions in Canada to introduce Deposit Anywhere, the use of a mobile banking app feature that allows users to quickly and easily deposit cheques.

Sports – The Smiths Falls Jr. A Bears were on the receiving end of a pair of losses in CCHL action last weekend, including a 6-2 decision to the Pembroke Lumber Kings at home Friday night and a 4-1 effort against the Ottawa Junior Senators.

“We were outplayed and outworked… bottom line,” said Walt Dubas, assistant coach.

“One of our own fortes is working hard and playing aggressive hockey and when we don’t we’re prone to not playing well at all.”

And that’s what happened Friday against Pembroke. It wasn’t a bad first period as the teams traded goals for a 1-1 tie at the end of the first.

Things just started to fall apart in the second when Pembroke scored four unanswered goals.

“Pembroke is a big, strong, physical team… one of the elite teams in the league,” commented Dubas.

Dubas said the bench bosses weren’t totally upset with the team’s performance on the weekend.

They acquired three new players, including former Bear Chris McMillan, who was released from the Youngstown Phantoms of the United States Hockey League (USHL).

The other two new players are D Connor Cobbold and goalie, Cole Skinner, who got the start in Ottawa.

This winning trifecta has hometown connection with Smiths Falls Bears Laurie Weir

ljweir@metroland.com

Sports - Three of this year’s Smiths Falls Jr. A Bears have a lot in common.

They are all local players, and have a connection that started when they first hit the ice in the Smiths Falls Minor Hockey Association.

Neil Doef, Michael McKenney and Nick Coates are hometown boys, each with a season (or half a season) under his belt.

Doef, 17, 5-10, 183 pounds, has years of minor hockey experience playing with the Upper Canada Cyclones, and before that, was with the RideauSt. Lawrence Kings.

When asked how playing with the Kings and Cyclones helped prepare him for Jr. A hockey, he was thoughtful.

“It’s a higher level hockey and it prepares you more for the challenges of junior A,” he said.

Doef played a few games with the Bears in 2012/13, but last year was his first full season as a rookie.

This Smiths Falls District Collegiate Institute student earned the Top Rookie of the league and was named to the All-Rookie team last year. In 57 games played, he had 16 goals and 23 assists, plus another 5 and 5 during the 16-game playoff run.

“It was a big accomplishment last year to win that, but I think you’re always learning playing junior A, you

Michael McKenney, Neil Doef and Nick Coats are three local lads who add some hometown flair to the Smiths Falls Jr. A Bears this season. The team takes to the ice Friday against Carleton Place. learn every day, and things will come,” Doef said.

Things are coming all right – big things. This season, Doef is already making an impression.

According to the NHL CSS (Central Scouting) Preliminary 2015 Players to Watch list, Doef is rated as a ‘C’ choice, indicating a fourth, fifth or sixth round candidate.

“That happened two days ago,” said Doef, as he played down the hype of it all. He heard he was on that prestigious list on Sept. 25.

McKenney said they’re proud of him. “That’s an amazing accomplishment.”

Walt Dubas, assistant coach of the Bears, offered words of praise about Doef’s NHL watch list achievement.

“We’re very proud of Neil,” he said.

“Not only will he be representing our team but also the town of Smiths Falls.

But this is just the initial step… Neil realizes there is a lot of work to be done.

It’s nice to know that he is a player that we have assisted in becoming recognized like this… now, he just has to carry it through.”

Certainly, Dubas added, Doef’s

achievements as a rookie last year put his name on the Central Scouting’s radar.

Pressure?

“I just play my game, don’t worry about it until, I guess, the end of the season when the draft comes closer,” Doef said.

So far this season, Doef has collected two goals and eight assists in 9 games played.

He said he is having more fun this year as he’s no longer the ‘rookie’ trying to make a name for himself.

“We’re not the new guys in the league anymore, so we have a little respect, I guess,” Doef said of himself and his Smiths Falls mates.

In 2016, this personable teen has been committed to the Ivy League school, Princeton University, where he hopes to study “something in math or science.”

Doef is the son of Bruce and BobbiJean and is the youngest of four with two sisters and a brother.

McKenney McKenney, 18, 6-foot, 190 pounds, is also a forward. He spent his minor hockey days as a member of the Rideau St. Lawrence Kings, who also made the jump to the Cyclones before coming to the Bears’ Den. “It’s a cool kind of thing that we share,” he said.

Sports – Smiths Falls sisters Brooke and Brittany Henderson found themselves on solid ground in their respective golf events earlier this week.

Through three of four rounds of the inaugural World Junior Girls Championship in Markham, Ont., Brooke, 17 was sitting in third spot at -2. Her steady play had Canada in second place in the team competition, well back of the American juniors who held down the top two individual spots, heading into the championship’s final day on Wednesday (Oct. 1).

In Stage II qualifying for her LPGA (Ladies Professional Golf Association) Tour Card, Brittany opened the four days of competition with a one over-par 73.

This was expected to place her in the top 60 among the more than 190 golfers giving it their all at the Plantation Golf & Country Club in Venice, Fla. The top 80 and ties from this event (Sept. 30-Oct. 3) qualify for the third and final stage of LPGA QSchool Dec. 3-7 in Florida.

TRIFECTA From page SF 19

“That we’re all from Smiths Falls and we want to see each other do really well.”

McKenney is enjoying his CCHL time now after spending the bulk of last season getting ice time with the EOJHA’s Athens Jr. B Aeros.

“I really developed there last year and now I’m kind of a bigger contributor on the (Jr. A) team this year which is nice to see,” McKenney said, who was the Aeros’ leading scorer two years ago during their playoff run. He started last season in Athens, but came home to Smiths Falls halfway through 2013/14.

“We had a good team there,” he said. “I got lots of ice time in Junior B which has really helped (with development).”

Dubas said that McKenney has been with the Bears each year at the start of the season.

“Getting that ice time as a junior B player has certainly helped with his development,” Dubas said. “He’s also been building his strength and working hard.

He’s grown bigger and stronger and certainly deserves to be on the team.”

McKenney says he’s looking forward to a good season with the Bears this year and developing as a whole.

He is the son of Dave and Cindy McKenney and is the middle son of three boys.

Coates Coates, 18, is a 6-foot, 190-pound forward with the Bears. He comes to the Den after spending his minor hockey career with the SFMHA until minor bantam, when he climbed the ranks to the Cyclones. Both he and McKenney are graduates from SFDCI. He said he’s looking forward to a healthy season after spending a couple months on the bench last year due to a separated shoulder in December.

According to Dubas, Coates is an aggressive forward, “a style we like,” he said. “He worked hard to get us into the finals last year against Carleton Place, and now he is continuing to develop.”

When asked how his season was going so far this year, Coates said: “It’s a lot better than last year.”

Coates admitted he’d rather the other guys did all the talking when it came to questions from the media. “I’m OK with letting them talk,” he said with a laugh.

He’s the son of Lynda and Randy and has a younger sister.

On the season McKenney said one thing about practice sessions is that coach Mark Grady “really puts us into shape.”

In fact, practices are so intense, “it makes the game seem easy,” he said.

Playing home games at the Smiths Falls Memorial Community Centre is the highlight of their week.

“It’s really fun to play at home on a Friday night and have that hometown support,” said McKenney.

“We look forward to that Friday night game all week,” Doef added.

Dubas said having the three local boys on this year’s team is a great asset.

“I’m ecstatic,” Dubas said of the trio of Smiths Falls players. “We are very lucky to have three local players. Not only is it important for the development of minor hockey in Smiths Falls but also to our junior A program.”

Curling & squash club open house scheduled for Oct. 9 Stacey Roy

sroy@perfprint.ca

Events - You saw the excitement of the 2014 Tankard, now the Smiths Falls Curling & Squash Club invites the public to come down to the club Oct. 9 and see what curling and squash can do for them.

The open house will run from 3 to 9 p.m. at the club (13 Old Slys Rd. beside Heritage House Museum) with light refreshments, tours of the facility and league coordinators present to answer questions.

“We hope everyone comes down to the open house, asks questions and gets a tour,” said Agnes McVeety, OCA rep.

Plans are to have the club’s website relaunched (http://smithsfallscurlingandsquashclub.ovca.com) in time for the upcoming open house. The new site will have more interactive features and aims to answer initial questions from those interested in learning more about the club.

This year, the facility is making it easier than ever to be part of the fun in curling and squash. They are offering a number of new membership packages, including special rates for those 20 to 30 years old and those who are curling for their first or second year. The club is also launching a new league this year known as Learn to Curl. This 10-week program will offer first time curlers an opportunity

to get hands-on training in the sport in a small group setting for $100. Organizers hope this will provide a solid foundation from which new members will feel comfortable in joining a league of their choosing. All curling memberships include access to squash courts, the facility’s two saunas and an exercise room.

“We’re trying to increase our membership plus bring awareness of the sport of curling and squash to the public,” McVeety said.

The 2014 Tankard games in Smiths Falls went a long way toward increasing public awareness and building momentum for the sport.

“We want to keep that going,”

McVeety said.

The club is kicking off this upcoming season with a Swing and Sweep event, Saturday, Oct. 25. On this day members and the public are welcome to come out and play nine holes of golf at the Smiths Falls Golf & Country Club followed by six ends of curling and enjoy a delicious lasagna dinner. Tickets are $40 a person and can be purchased at the club.

Youth Curling returns this season after the Thanksgiving weekend until April 1.

Interested individuals aged eight to 19 are welcome to come out Monday evenings from 4:30 to 6 p.m. to receive instruction from a qualified athlete and have fun on the ice. See you there!

See the fall colours from Blueberry Mountain lookout Oct. 4 Community – We are fortunate in eastern Ontario to have an abundance of sugar maple trees, not only for the wonderful maple syrup they produce but also for the spectacular colour of their foliage in autumn.

If you are considering going for a drive in the country to enjoy the fall colours, we would suggest a visit to Blueberry Mountain on Saturday, Oct. 4. The lookout at the top provides a breathtaking 180-degree panoramic view over a densely forested landscape with Flower Round Lake in the distance.

Each year the Mississippi Madawaska Land Trust (MMLT) offers its annual Fall Colours Nature Walk at this lovely 1,250-acre wilderness property known as cliffLAND. The Clifford family entered into a conservation easement agreement with the land trust in 2009 to permanently preserve this wilderness area which had already become a haven for tourists.

In fact, the County of Lanark tourism department held a contest in 2008 and Blueberry Mountain was voted by residents as one of the Seven Wonders of Lanark County.

The featured entertainment this fall will be a visit from the renowned conservationist “Grey Owl”, who will be telling one of the many tales about his wilderness adventures. Also featured will be a demonstration of our new Soundscapes equipment provided by a grant from the TD Friends of the Environment. This new highly senPhoto courtesy of Tania Marsh sitive, cutting-edge technology provides an introduction to new ways of The Mississippi Madawaska Land Trust will host its annual Fall Colours Nature Walk at Blueberry Mountain, experiencing the natural world more above, on Saturday, Oct. 4. The mountain was voted one of the Seven Wonders of Lanark County in 2008.

intensely than ever before through these listening devices. Where the human mind naturally filters out sounds, this provides a new dimension to the nature experience. Just as binoculars enhance bird watching, Soundscapes provides more detail than ears alone, whether listening to frogs or the sighing of trees.

This relatively new science also serves for bio-acoustic monitoring to help the Land Trust monitor changes over time. Visitors to the Fall Colours Nature Walk will be provided with a hands-on experience by our bioacoustic technician, Chad Clifford.

Registration for the nature walk begins at 9:30 a.m. and a guided, interpretive tour will set out at 10 a.m. sharp. A donation of $10 per person (children under 12 are free) will go towards maintaining the Land Trust’s protected properties. This easy hike to the lookout takes about 45 minutes.

“MOST PEOPLE TALK RECYCLING, WE DO IT” USED

There is a big difference between price and cost when it comes to vehicles so it’s no surprise that they will do their best to achieve our satisfaction, thereby ensuring repeat and referral business.

But what happens when the dealership changes ownership on the day after we get our new ride? This is what happened to my friends and, at first the new owner group wasn’t too willing to handle these concerns.

In fact it took me sending an email to the media office of the automaker involved to get things rolling.

Dealership owner changes don’t happen on a regular basis and few of us might get caught in the same situation. But there is a common consumer practice that may lead to the same disappointments.

When shopping for a new vehicle, all of us are price conscious. Automakers make it easy with websites and media advertising that promotes pricing first and almost everything else second.

Add to this the clamor of

DK A E R CLIC

WIN

Car Counsellor BRIAN TURNER

competing retailers struggling to get consumer attention with increasingly louder and bolder ads and you’d not be surprised that we focus on pricing when selecting a retailer to buy from.

This is why shoppers will travel across the city, country, or region in search of the best deal.

And often the price differences between a distant and nearby retailer are minimal.

But there’s a lot more to owning and operating a vehicle than just the purchase price. On a regular basis dealership service departments welcome neighbours that purchased their vehicle elsewhere but wish to have their auto service, parts and accessory needs met by a more conve-

nient store (read closer to home).

After all a new vehicle is covered by a bumperto-bumper warranty right? What does it matter where we purchased it?

Well, it matters a lot.

Every day dealerships take care of scratches, stone-chipped windshields, punctured tires and a host of plain ordinary automotive problems that are not covered by a manufacturer’s warranty.

They do this because of their belief in good customer service and also because when they sell a vehicle, a portion of the profit goes into a ‘policy’ account to cover things that the manufacturer doesn’t when a customer needs help. And

as all auto retailers are independent businesses, when they’re faced with a request for such policy coverage on a vehicle they didn’t sell, well as you might suspect, the answer isn’t likely to be positive.

Consumers might also be surprised to learn how much influence dealerships have when it comes to getting the factory to provide out-of-warranty consideration after a vehicle’s warranty has expired and an owner is facing a major bill.

Many dealerships are empowered to make their own decisions on extending such ‘policy’ or ‘goodwill’ coverage when the time and distance limits are exceeded.

And even if a customer contacts the automaker’s consumer complaint department directly, before any decision is made, the hotline’s staff will contact the dealership for an opinion.

The moral of this tale is; in the long run, even if a distant retailer

is offering a lower price, you’re better off shopping at a local retailer. After all, they’re the folks that sponsor your Children’s sports teams, make donations to local charities, employ your neighbours and contribute greatly to area property taxes. Simply put, it’s wiser to consider cost over price.

Lifestyle – I recently received an email from friends of mine who were having difficulty with getting some issues resolved on a new car. The vehicle was a luxury unit costing north of $60,000 and the issues were minor (some light scratches on a bumper, incomplete detailing and cleaning before delivery and a stubborn license plate mounting nut).

But even minor things like that can be a major headache on an expensive new vehicle. Most of us have experienced something similar. We purchase or lease a new or used vehicle and, come delivery day we find a few things that need some attention. In the overwhelming majority of cases, these things are quickly addressed by our retailers or, if time is of the essence, we take delivery as scheduled and make an appointment to get things handled later.

Auto retailers are in the business of keeping their customers happy,

Mark Twain’s Patent Scrapbook: A 20-year long, 37-year journey

Submitted photo

It’s been along journey. In 1977, David Jacklin first the wit and wisdom of one of the greatest authors performed the show that has become Mark Twain’s of all time. The makeup took about two hours back Patent Scrapbook, a one-man performance about then – it takes somewhat less now. it seemed an appropriate time to bring Mark Twain’s Patent Scrapbook to Perth for a full run.

Ernest Hemingway said of Mark Twain that “American literature starts with him”, while Thomas Edison said “An American loves his family. If he

has any left over for another person, he generally selects Mark Twain.” Twain said of himself, “I only know two things about this man. First, he has never been in penitentiary; second, I do not know why.”

Mark Twain’s Patent Scrapbook is

Canlok Stone

named after a self-sticking scrapbook that Twain invented, often joking that it made him more money than any of his other books. The show is a 95minute ramble through the scrapbook of Twain’s writings and reminiscences, from his early days growing up on the

Inc.

Mississippi before the US Civil War, to his days in the “Wild West” as a prospector, gambler and journalist to his famous writings, such as The Celebrated Jumping Frog and, of course, Huckleberry Finn.

Mark Twain’s Patent Scrapbook will open BarnDoor Productions’ 20th anniversary season, which will culminate in April with the community theatre’s 100th production. The season also includes two Pulitzer Prize winners and one of the funniest celebrations of Christmas ever put on stage. All of that will line the group up for a spring-summer season that will include the hottest show in North America, some hilarious romance and one of Shakespeare’s most challenging plays. After twenty seasons, BarnDoor Productions still keeps the energy and excitement flowing and the entertainment value high.

Mark Twain’s Patent Scrapbook will run Oct. 17, 18, 23, 24, 25 at 8 p.m. and Oct. 19 and 26 at 2 p.m. at the ground level, barrier-free Full Circle Theatre, 26 Craig Street, Perth.

Arts – It’s been nearly 20 years since David and Janice Jacklin founded BarnDoor Productions, Perth’s original community theatre. It’s more than 30 years since the couple began producing theatre in Perth, but it’s 37 years since David, then a 21-year-old drama student, first performed Mark Twain’s Patent Scrapbook – although his very first performance as Mark Twain was at 12!

The Jacklins are well-known in eastern Ontario as the producing directors of BarnDoor Productions and builders of the Full Circle Theatre, receiving the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Medal in 2012, but separately, David is a multiple award-winning playwright and composer and an actor, with hundreds of productions to his credit, including work with the Blyth Festival, Press Theatre, Upper Canada Playhouse, Inner Stage Theatre, Port Stanley Summer Festival and more than 100 one-man performances of Ted John’s The School Show on tour throughout Ontario.

To commemorate the 100th anniversary of Mark Twain’s passing, David revived Mark Twain’s Patent Scrapbook in 2010. Audiences greeted it with enthusiastic applause and long laughter – Twain’s humour proved to be still fresh and engaging after more than 100 years – but, despite numerous performances elsewhere, the show was given only one performance in Perth. When a change in BarnDoor Productions’ season playbill was required a couple of weeks ago,

1949 Chevrolet a perfect blend of old and new Community – Bernie LeBlanc lives today in St. Catharines, Ont., with his wife Sheila. His exposure as a young man to his family’s 1951 Pontiac instilled in Bernie a life-long love for the styling of Pontiacs and Chevrolets from 1949 to 1952.

In 2001, Bernie finally bought an Oshawa-built 1949 Chevrolet Styleline 2-door sedan emerging from years of storage.

A man in Welland, Ontario, bought it new. After he died, his widow passed the car to her son, who did not want it. Bernie bought the car from her daughter, making him the third owner.

The body was stripped down to bare metal in Toronto. The original 216 cubic inch overhead-valve six cylinder engine and 3-speed column-shift transmission were sold for $500 to make way for a 350 cubic inch Chev V8 crate engine with 330 horsepower and 350 Turbo automatic transmission hooked up to a 9-inch Ford rear end. The engine has fuel injection and the car has air conditioning with power windows and power trunk.

Bernie’s 1949 Chevrolet had a curved two-piece windshield when new. He ordered a one-piece Olds windshield from a man in California who is making new ones to meet the demand of customizers and restorers.

Bernie installed the windshield him-

He had to grind the Olds windshield very carefully with wet belt sanding in order to give it a perfect fit to the Chevrolet windshield frame.

Now he and his wife have a truly panoramic view!

The rebuilding of the car took seven years. The body work was performed by Cataract Collision in Niagara Falls and the dazzling finish is a 50th Anniversary Corvette colour. The interior was installed by Streamline in Niagara Falls: headliner, seats, floor, console, and tilt chrome steering column.

The original speedometer gauge is still in the car and it works! All mechanical work was performed by R Garage in St. Catharines, including a stainless steel exhaust system and stainless steel gas tank. Every nut and bolt in the entire car, except for body-to-frame bolts, is stainless steel. Wally Clark of Niagara Appraisals has evaluated Bernie’s 1949 Submitted photo Chevrolet at $80,000.

MOVIE: This is Where I Leave You STARRING: Jason Bateman, Tina Fey, Adam Driver, Corey Stoll, Rose Byrne, and Jane Fonda DIRECTOR: Shawn Levy RATING: 14A Entertainment – It’s been said beauty is truth and truth is beauty. If that’s true This is Where I Leave You has a lot of truth.

Judd Altman (Jason Bateman) believed his life was going according to plan. He thought his life was right on track until he came home early from work to find his boss in bed with his wife.

In a flash his marriage and career were over, and just when he was about to wallow in self-pity his sister Wendy (Tina Fey) calls him to tell him their dad has died.

Judd’s life comes to a screeching halt, and he heads back home for his father’s funeral. He’s greeted by his sister, the mom and homemaker. He sees his older brother Paul (Corey Stoll) who took over the family business. There’s his younger brother Philip (Adam Driver) who’s kind of the family screw-up. Then of course there’s his mother, noted

My Take

Mark haskins

author and psychologist Hillary Altman (Jane Fonda).

In accordance with their father’s last wishes the entire Altman family must follow the Jewish mourning custom of shiva.

For the next seven days the Altmans will be under the same roof remembering and mourning their father and husband. They’ll be reconnecting as a family. They’ll be driving each other crazy.

Judd’s life is a mess, but he isn’t the only one. Paul and his wife have been trying unsuccessfully to have a child for the last two years. Philip is dating an older woman who is remarkably like his mom. Wendy’s marriage seems rocky at best, and Hillary is popping Zoloft like their Tic Tacs.

Everyone has their problems, but they come to realize that no matter how complicated things get

DK A E R CLIC

WIN

they still have each other.

Much of This is Where I Leave You is about the path not taken.

It’s about the regret that comes from what might have been. It’s also about family, and how they can drive you nuts, but no matter what happens they’re still your family.

It’s the kind of film that’s able to make you laugh at life’s troubles, and not fall into farce.

It has an eloquence and a poignancy that can make you burst out laughing or shed a tear. Often in the same scene.

This may be one of the best ensemble casts to hit the big screen in years. Adam Driver, Corey Stoll, Kathryn Hahn, Connie Britton, Timothy Oliphant, Dax Sheppard, Debra Monk, Ben Schwartz and Abigail Spencer are fantastic.

Tina Fey gives a career defining performance. Rose Byrne, who plays Judd’s old friend and new flame, is captivating. Jane Fonda is shamelessly funny, and Jason Bateman with his dry wit delivers a career performance.

This is Where I Leave You is a truly rare and beautiful film.

Make the healthy food choice the easy food choice at play and school Lifestyle – Children and youth spend hours at school, recreation centres, sports fields and arenas. These spaces and places play an important role in their nutrition and health so it’s important to think about the food and beverages available there. We can think of these foods as ‘everyday’ and ‘sometimes’ foods.

‘Everyday foods’ are the healthiest choices, suggested as those to choose most often. They include plain water for thirst and food such as vegetables, fruit, whole grains, milk and alternative products lower in fat and added sugars, and lean meats and alternatives, lower in sodium such as legumes, nuts and eggs.

According to local statistics from the 2011 Canadian Community Health Survey, about one third of youth aged 12 to 19 years in Leeds, Grenville and Lanark district reported eating five or more servings of vegetables and fruits each day. If their everyday places provided more everyday foods like vegetables and fruit and less ‘sometimes’ foods like chips, chocolates and pop it would go a long way to improve lifelong health potential. Keep reading for ideas that could make the healthy food choice the easy choice at play and at school.

Making healthier choices is tough on everyone. Adults can make up to 200 eating decisions each day! It’s not any easier for hungry or thirsty children and youth to make a healthier food decision when faced with community and school vending machines that offer only ‘sometimes foods’ usually higher in added salt, sugar and fat. Data from the 2009 Ontario Student Drug Use and Health Survey indicated that only one out of three grade 7 to 12 students reported drinking soda pop or sports drinks once or not at all in the previous seven days. Those in

Nutrition Tips control of stocking vending machines, snack counters and tuck shops can meet with food suppliers, parents, administrators and registered dietitians to find nutritious, tasty, safe and affordable products. Discussions could include the potential to install or increase the number of water fountains.

Sports events that wrap up with ‘sometimes’ foods like cookies and freezies make it difficult for children and youth to absorb and believe the lesson that healthy eating leads to healthy bodies and minds. When short on time it is easier to pick up prepared foods, often higher in added sugars, salt and fat. Try sharing the workload when planning for healthy snacks at community or schoolbased sporting events.

Much of the food advertising we see is for highly processed foods. At home, at the grocery store, at school – encourage youth to question what they see in food marketing. Discuss why the healthier choices don’t receive the same attention.

An additional way to assess children’s and youth’s food places is to consider that food need not be included in all of their everyday activities. For example using food as a reward for a job well done can begin to get food tied to mood and self-worth. Reward instead with special class or individual privileges such as an extra recess, dancing in class, making deliveries to the office, getting extra art or reading time. Another example to separate out the food connection would be to use non-food items for community or school-based fundraising. Promote literacy with book fairs, plan a flea market or sports equipment sale, charge a small admission fee

to a school dance, raise funds at a ‘teachers versus students’ or ‘coaches/referees versus players’ sports game or hold a car wash to promote spirit and physical activity.

“Community and sports volunteers, families, health care providers and schools can work together to make everyday food choices outside the home the normal way to go,” says Marie Traynor, public health nutritionist.

“We can role model healthy R0012925711/1002

eating and work towards creating spaces and places that support it.”

ing. Cancer touches us all. It’s inspiring to see such devotion to Terry’s cause as we aim for a cure to eradicate this terrible disease.”

Many of the students participating felt a strong connection with the cause.

Olivia Turner, 9, a Grade 4 student at Linklater Public School in Gananoque, was walking in memory of her aunt Marsha, who died three years ago from brain cancer.

“We’re doing this so we can find a cure,” said Turner.

Joanne Carswell, an educational assistant who accompanied students on the walk, said the day offered students a strong lesson in character by showing them the value of helping others and that “everybody counts.”

Some board schools have yet to report results for the run and the board-wide fundraising total is expected to climb, said Mark Calder, a senior communications officer with the UCDSB. Submitted by the Upper Canada District School Board.

News – Staff and students across the Upper Canada District School Board (UCDSB) ran or walked in honour of a Canadian hero on Sept. 24, raising at least $23,700 for the Terry Fox Foundation during the 2014 Terry Fox National School Run Day. The schools that raised the most during this year’s fundraiser included: The Stewart School, $3,100; Glengarry District High School, $2,000; Queen Elizabeth Public School, $2,900; Carleton Place High School, $3,047; Maynard Public School, $1,700; and Viscount Alexander Public School, $1,600.

Participants in the fundraiser honoured the legacy of Fox, whose Marathon of Hope in 1980 drew international attention. Over the course of just one year, Fox’s marathon and associated fundraisers collected $23 million for cancer research.

“I’m so proud of our staff and students who went the distance for Terry,” said David Coombs, superintendent of school operations. “It was heart-warm-
