The Breast Screening Mobile Coach has rolled in to town bus are of the same quality as screening centers in cities such as Regina and Saskatoon. The bus is fully equipped with a waiting area, enclosed office as well as change/washrooms. Patients can expect to be greeted by a receptionist upon arrival. The receptionist will register the patient and gather information regarding health history. After initial registration is complete, a medical radiation technologist will perform the mammogram which typically takes ten minutes. The SCA then notifies both patient and doctor of the results. The mobile unit gives patients the opportunity to receive mammograms right here in Weyburn, rather than having to travel to larger centres. Any more information regarding the Mobile Screening Bus can visit the website at www.saskcancer.ca. The Mobile Breast Screening Unit is currently on location in the parking lot of the Canalta Hotel until February 20.
The digital equipment in the bus is the same quality as that used in offices in Regina and Saskatoon.
As the New Year rolled in, so did the Breast Screening Mobile Coach. The unit pulled into the parking lot of the Canalta Hotel and will remain there until February 20. The Screening Program for Breast Cancer, which supplies the mobile bus, is an organization that provides the mammogram x-ray, keeps track of screening dates and sends results to both the patient and the doctor. The Saskatchewan Cancer Society recommends that women get mammograms every two years, unless they have a family history of breast cancer. In that case, it is recommended that patients do yearly checkups. The target age group, which is between the ages of 50 and 69, received letters in the mail letting residents know about their extended stay in Weyburn. Any resident who did not receive a letter should call to book an appointment at 1855-584-822. It is recommended that appointments be booked six weeks before any planned extended holiday. This allows for the mammogram results to be back in time and any follow up appointments to be made. The mobile bus has fully licensed technicians to drive the bus as well as operate the digital machines. The machines which are used in the
The Mobile Unit features a reception and waiting area for patients similar to that of a doctor's office.

Saskatchewan SPCA to end enforcement role The Saskatchewan Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (Saskatchewan SPCA) has announced they will not renew their contract with the Ministry of Agriculture for enforcement of The Animal Protection Act, 1999. The Saskatchewan SPCA will be focusing on programs and services related to education and the prevention of animal cruelty. "We want to thank the Saskatchewan SPCA for their many years of work in enforcing The Animal Protection Act," Agriculture Minister Lyle Stewart said. "We wish them the best as they enter this new chapter focusing on education and prevention." The Saskatchewan SPCA has been enforcing The Animal Protection Act, 1999 for 40 years. The current two-year contract expires on March 31, 2015. "Animal welfare is and always will be a priority for us," Saskatchewan SPCA Board of Directors President Constance Roussel said. "However, after much discussion our board felt that we can better serve the animals and the public by focusing on education and prevention. We thank the ministry for working with us through this transition and look forward to continuing to work with them under our new focus." The Ministry of Agriculture is exploring other options for delivery of investigative services. "The humane treatment and well-being of animals continues to be a priority for us," Stewart said. "Our ministry will continue to work with all parties involved to ensure a smooth transition." "We will now be able to focus our resources on the prevention of animal cruelty," Roussel said. "We are confident that this is the best decision for our organization and the welfare of animals." The Saskatchewan Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals is a charitable organization dedicated to animal welfare. Established in 1928, the Saskatchewan SPCA is governed by a volunteer board of directors, with the head office located in Saskatoon.
Employee pleads guilty to OHS violation that resulted in injury Donovan Belisle pleaded guilty to one count under occupational health and safety (OHS) legislation and was fined $2,030 in Weyburn Provincial Court on December 16, 2014. Belisle pleaded guilty to contravening subsection 133(8) of regulations (being a worker who operates a vehicle at a place of employment, and not having a clear view of the path to be travelled, did proceed when it was not safe to do so, and in the absence of a signal that it was safe to proceed, thereby causing serious injury to a worker). Belisle was fined $1,450 with a surcharge of $580. Charges were laid following a January 12, 2013, incident where a worker was seriously injured on an oil drilling rig near Stoughton, when he was pinned between pieces of pipe that were being loaded onto the tines of a loader. Since April 1, 2014, there have been 47 convictions for occupational health and safety violations with total fines of more than $531,000.

Conservation Corner by Lindsey Leko, Weyburn Field Area Conservation Officer Ho! Ho! Ho! It is time for my annual year-end column. Late, yes…but it is here!! Well the end of the year is here (and gone). Lots of lights still up all over, and the ever present happy look on people's faces, as they take down the Christmas decorations and get ready to send the kids back to school. The deer hunting season went without a glitch this year. Not many deer hunters out this year, but that was to be expected because our license sales were way down. What we did see an increase in, were the number of coyote hunters and pheasant hunters, especially on the weekends. There is nothing like a winter shoot of pheasant when there is snow on the ground. Even I can see them! Unfortunately, with the good comes the bad. And, the bad is that we are experiencing a large number of moose being illegally harvested. Some have been taken, and some have been left. We are up to ten moose that have been shot and left/taken in our districts. We have been able to collect some evidence, but if anyone knows anything about any of these it would be great if you could provide us with some information by calling the province's toll-free Turn In Poachers (TIP) line at 1800-667-7561 or #5555 for SaskTel cell phone subscribers. There have been some positive changes within our ministry over the past year. An increase in fines for poaching and added suspensions will hopefully create deterrence. Ryan Kreinkie moved his family here from Estevan, to be the new district officer. He is a good friend and an even better officer. In 2015, the Weyburn Wildlife Federation is hosting the Saskatchewan Wildlife Federation provincial convention and that should be a real good time. These men and women work really hard and do a lot for the community, so please keep that in mind. We have all heard about the unfortunate passing of the elderly ice fishermen from the Assiniboia area. It is a reminder to take care when on the ice and do not drive where anyone has not gone before you. It is said that there is about 30 centimetres of ice but there is no way of knowing if that is consistent throughout the whole ice surface. If in doubt, please stay off the ice, as we do not need another tragedy. As with every year-end message, there are some people that I would like to personally thank for supporting us and our programs. First, the staff at the Weyburn landfill for allowing us to bring in any road kills for proper disposal. I would like to thank the RCMP and the Weyburn City Police for assisting us with animal calls where we are unable to attend, and also for their support in our investigations and assistance when needed in the field. The staff over at the vet clinic, who have seen more owls than you can imagine. Thanks for your assistance in dealing with injured raptors. To the Weyburn Wildlife Federation, I would like to thank you for being great conservationists, and working with us to ensure that the wildlife is protected. You spend lots of time and money on outdoor issues for all of us to enjoy and I thank you for that. To Joe and his staff over at Canadian Tire…THANK YOU, for your donations to the Hooked on Fishing, Not on Drugs (HOFNOD) program, our resource protection trailer and for your generosity to all of the outdoor organizations that you have helped. To our office boss Patty, thanks for holding the fort down while Ryan and I are in the field. A big thank you goes out to farmers who have been leaving out feed to help our low deer populations make it through the winter. Almost done! Another thank you to all of you who call the Turn In Poachers line with violations. It is because of the information that you provide that we are winning some of these battles. We hope that you will continue to do so in the future. Lastly, Ryan and I would like to thank our families for their support over the past year. Late nights, early mornings, people bringing critters to our house and the ever present phone calls from the public. So, on that note, Ryan, Patty and I would like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas, and a safe and Happy New Year. All the best in 2015!

Criminal record check fee increased On January 4, Police received a complaint of unwanted/rude postings on a Social Media site. Police spoke to those involved and warned them about what they post on these sites. On January 3, Police attended a residence to keep the peace and mediate a dispute between a couple who were arguing about who should be in the house. It was resolved for the weekend and they stated that they will figure it out next
week as to who lives where. Also, on January 3, Weyburn PS received a call from Estevan PS stating that a 34 year-old Weyburn male was threatening a 49 yearold male in Estevan. An officer spoke to the Weyburn man who denied making any threats. No charges were laid. On January 2, Police responded to a local restaurant regarding an employee that was yelling and screaming. Officers restrained and removed a 25 year-old fe-
male; she was transported to the Weyburn Hospital to be seen by a Doctor. Also on January 2, a 14 year-old female was reported missing by her mother. Several inquiries were made as to her whereabouts. An officer sent the girl a text message to call the Police Service and she returned home shortly after. On January 1, Police responded to a fight at a local bar. Several patrons had been kicked out and were
OBITUARY
given a ride home. No charges were laid. Also on January 1, Police received a complaint about a male yelling at another male at a local gas station. An officer attended and warned a 32 year-old male about his actions. On December 31, Police responded to a complaint of a fight in the east area of the city. Officers spoke to several people. There was no assault and no charges laid. Also on December 31, Police responded to a complaint of kids drinking and doing drugs near an east end intersection. Officers found that there was a house party in the area, however, everyone was inside. On December 30, a call regarding a drunken male was received via 911. The location where the call originated from was checked by officers. A 27 year-old male was arrested and transported to Weyburn Police Service. He was charged with
Care and Control of a vehicle while impaired and Care and Control of a vehicle while over .08. On December 29, Police responded to a noise complaint in the east area of Weyburn. A 19 year-old male was playing the drums. He was warned about the noise. Also on December 29, Police received a call from a homeowner saying that he could smell natural gas in his house. An officer and personnel from the Fire Dept. attended. It was determined that there wasn't a gas leak or fire in the residence. Further, on December 29, a report was received that a male and female were fighting behind one of the bars. A 21 year-old female was found and taken to the Hospital, she suffered minor injuries. The incident is under investigation. If you or anyone you know has any information regarding any of the above crimes, or any other serious crime, police are encouraging you to contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222Tips(8477), or to contact the
Weyburn Police Service at 306-848-3250. Criminal Record Checks As a result in changes to Federal RCMP policy and fees, as well as local policy, a new process for Criminal Record Checks will be implemented by the Weyburn Police Service effective January 15, 2015. A fee structure change at the Federal level and the implementation of new digital fingerprint technology has necessitated an increase in fees. Checks, for other than volunteers, will be increased to a maximum of $75.00. Part of this fee is collected on behalf of the Federal Government over which we have no control. Local fees have not increased since 2009, but the time it takes to process them has increased significantly. This will be partly reflected in the new fee at the local level. We will continue to process legitimate volunteer applications for no fee. However, applicants claiming volunteer status must provide a letter from their volunteer organization requesting the check.
OSBORNE, LAURA: Laura was born on a farm north of Kelvington on December 21, 1919. She was raised by the Swanson family of the Kelvington area and went to Farmingdale School. Laura worked hard as a young girl, but in her free time she loved to dance and this is where she met the love of her life, Edgar Osborne. Laura and Eddie were married on December 23, 1939, the day after Eddie received his discharge from the army. They lived in the Kelvington, Carrot River and Prince Albert areas. Bill was born in 1940 and Beverley Joan in 1945, both in Kelvington. In 1948, Laura and Eddie bought three quarters of land north of Viewfield and moved south to farm the land. Here they had three more daughters, Sandra in 1955, Katherine in 1958 and Linda in 1960. In 1972, they left farming and settled in Stoughton. Laura and Eddie purchased the Moffit home with two extra lots. They created large gardens and made it their home. Laura loved her gardens and grew enough food to feed a neighbourhood. It was shared with family, friends, neighbours and strangers alike. After moving to town, Laura worked for a time at the Stoughton Bakery. Later she took a job at New Hope Pioneer Lodge as a care aide. She continued working here until her retirement. Laura was an active member of the United Church. In 1949, she became the secretary for the Viewfield UCW for a number of years. She was also a member of the Orange Lodge until the time of its closing. Laura and Eddie were well known for their volunteer work throughout their lives. In 2001, they were presented with a plaque by the Stoughton Lions Club for their volunteer spirit and example to others. They were always there with a helping hand for anyone who needed it. They provided transportation for others to get groceries, see the doctor or attend church. Laura was part of the Stoughton United Church Choir and belonged to the New Hope Pioneer Lodge Auxillary long after her retirement. She was also an active member of the Stoughton Drop In Centre. Eddie passed away in 2007 at the ripe age of 98. Laura continued to live in Stoughton for 2 more years and then moved to Midale to be closer to Bev. When Bev passed away in 2010, Laura moved to Bison Manor in Weyburn and here she met a lot of nice people. She also had a great view to watch the birds and squirrels. In December of 2013, she moved to Weyburn Special Care Home. She loved it there. She could watch the birds and squirrels from her window and Bill kept the feeders full. All of the staff there were very loving and caring. To her family, she was an amazing lady and will be remembered for her strength, Price love and humour. Laura was predeceased by her loving husband Edgar Osborne; her daughter Match Beverly Joan Winter; her parents Joseph and Charlotte Fletcher; her brother Bill Fletcher; and ee Guarant her sister Eva Fletcher.

For the fun of it
By Helen Waller The World Junior Hockey Championship tournament has come to an All-Canadian-Picture-Perfect-Finish. Canada wins the gold medal in the game we call our own. How could it get sweeter than that? It's why parents of TimBit kids across Canada wake up early hours, take our kids to practice and spend countless dollars on fuel, equipment and family meals being served at the rink canteen. As a mother of three boys, living in small town Saskatchewan, I really wouldn't want it any other way. What else would I do with my time in this kind of weather? I love to take my kids to practice or a game rather than fight with them to get off their video games. Throughout the last 15 years since I became involved in my kids hockey…win or lose, I have learned one thing for sure. Hockey is really just for the fun of it! I My kids have lost…my kids have won…my kid has been the star of the team. My kid has also been the player who never knew the score but really enjoyed the fries and burger at the canteen after. Either way, in the end, it really doesn't matter. The game is about hard work, learning new skills, trying your best, working as a team and having some fun along the way. It seems to me, as I watch from the stands, that some spectators have forgotten about that. Last year, my son had one of those games where he scored more goals than he could count. That's when I heard parents yell "GET HIM" and "TAKE HIM". I couldn't believe a six-year-old boy, who weighs less than 40 lbs. soaking wet, could get a grown adult so angry. I mean, seriously, the only thing you need to 'GET' that boy…is a cheeseburger and fries after the game! What on earth takes over parents that when we get into an arena we forget that very player out there is someone else's daughter or son? Would we really want someone taking that approach to our child? I have learned over the years that there is a time when your kid will shine…there are times when your kid will help the team shine…and there is a time that your kid will do neither. In the end, the only thing that will matter is that your child got some exercise and had a great time doing it! Our job as parents is to teach our children to win well and lose well. So, let's put this into perspective. The odds of your little Johnny (or Molly) making it to the NHL are about the same as winning the lottery (and let's face it, I am no longer getting scratch tickets for the rest of my life, so my chances just got a whole lot worse). So for the 99% of the players on the ice, hockey will just end up being a childhood memory. Isn't it our jobs as parents to make sure it's a fond one?

CHRISTMAS TREE PICKUP Sunday, January 11
The water is moving By Linda Wegner Just days after Christmas, I took my final ferry trip of the year. After several days on a most pleasant business trip, I was heading home. In view of having a totally relaxing experience I'd chosen to take the bus; not only was it less expensive, it was less stressful than driving up British Columbia's winding Sunshine Coast. The water was flat and I looked forward to a non-eventful 50 minute sailing. After exiting the bus, I hurried up to the passenger deck, grabbed a cup of tea in the café and then seated myself next to a portside window. Shortly afterwards I heard the engines kick in and with a shudder the ship began to back out of the dock. There was nothing extraordinary about it; in fact, it couldn't have been more ordinary. That's when I heard the delightful voice of an excited little boy, "Daddy, look!" he called, "Look, the water's moving." I instinctively looked out to confirm what I already knew: although it was the ship that was in motion, to an inexperienced eye, it seemed as if the water was doing the propelling instead of the vessel's engines. It definitely was a matter of perception. Life can be a lot like that, a matter of perception. Viewing the chaos of world conditions and the all-too-frequent questions that living can bring, emotions can be mixed. What's behind my current situation? Who's in charge of these circumstances? Is it the boat or the water that moving all around me? "The floods have lifted up, O Lord, The floods have lifted up their waves," wrote one of the psalmists but then, in a declaration of praise he continued. "The Lord on high is mightier than the noise of many waters, than the mighty waves of the sea!" Come ship or sea, He reigns!

Revealing the truth
Thought for the week
WEYBURN THIS WEEK’S PAPER CARRIERS for braving the cold weather to deliver the news!
Did you make a new year’s resolution?
Starting at 8 a.m.
The last book of the Bible is called 'The Revelation of Jesus to John'. There are many "events" that are "shown" in this book. While some interpret the messages given to foreshadow the doomsday of the world, they try to itemize to what each of the "pictures" refer. Their effort is to warn everyone to "watch out" because Jesus is coming back. However, this book is full of joy for the saved and those who are not pay little attention to its message. I am preparing this on January 6, the day celebrated by many in the Church as Epiphany. On this day we celebrate the coming of the Magi to offer their gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. For the Christians following the Julian calendar, this is the celebration of the Birth of Jesus. The meeting point of both traditions is that it is the revealing of Jesus, as the Christ, for the Gentiles, and not only the Jews. The Epiphany season, which can include up to nine Sundays, have lessons that reveal Jesus as the Son of God and Savior, the Messiah and Christ. He is Baptized by John, then calls His disciples, and begins His ministry for the kingdom of Heaven. He performs a variety of miracles, and teaches the crowds. Most of all He is training His disciples for ministry. We also see the times that He takes time to rest and have times of prayer with His Father. All of this is leading to the purpose for His coming, His crucifixion. Jesus is revealed as a complete person and "package". He is totally God and totally human. It is not right to focus on any one of His parts of ministry to the people. To do so is to make a mockery of Him. His whole ministry is unified to the purpose for which He came, to bring salvation through the forgiveness of sin. To lift up His miracles or His teaching or any other individual part of His life is to belittle the unity of the Gospel of the kingdom. He served with every part of His life and death. What gives us the true vision is to recognize the grace of God that is given through Jesus. This is the message of the whole Bible. From the fall into sin as portrayed in the Garden of Eden to the end of the Revelation, God's grace is revealed in His Messiah, the Christ. He came for all, shepherds and Kings, tax collectors and centurions. This is true today also, that He lives His life for all. Let us not keep Him as the cute little Baby in the manger, but as the Lord of our lives, following His will and way. The Rev. Martin Olson, Zion Lutheran Church, Weyburn

For the second time this season, a member of the Weyburn Gold Wings has been named Saskatchewan Female Midget AAA Hockey League star of the month. Goalie, Chantal Burke, was named second star for the month of December. The 15-year-old rookie from Saskatoon posted two wins in December and finished the month with a 0.88 GAA, and a 94.7 save percentage. Her coaches feel she is improving and is a very calm and determined goalie with her numbers getting better as the season goes. Burke was a member of Team SK U16 this past fall. Getting the nod as the league's first star in December was Lilla Carpenter-Boesch of the Regina Rebels and the third star went to Kaytlyn Chickowski of the Prince Albert A&W Bears.
