Ducks Unlimited Annual Dinner/Auction Fundraiser

Robert Watson with Service Recognition Award recipients Wendy Todesco, Murray Davidson and Jonathan Gatz.

Article & photo by Barb Fisher What a great turnout of conservation minded folk packing the Community Centre for the 28th Annual Ducks Unlimited Canada (DUC's) Fundraiser. DUC's have been working diligently for more than 77 years to save Canada's wetlands which play a critical role in maintaining the health of our environment, our economy and our lifestyle. Wetlands protect us: from water pollution by cleaning our water, from flooding by reducing water sent downstream, from drought by holding water in dry conditions, from climate change by reducing greenhouse gases, and so by sheltering wildlife and cleaning the water we can continue to enjoy our many pursuits of personal well-being.

Everyone has a responsibility to contribute to fixing the problems that threaten our very existence; mine is to bring attention to my readers in how we all can help.

Pollinators such as bees and flies have been declining in alarming numbers and much focus is placed on the role of pesticides, disease and a changing climate which impact these insect populations. One of the most critical factors has been the loss of wetlands and other natu-

ral habitats that pollinators need to survive, and if we don't have insects, we won't have birds. With pollinators required for reproduction in almost 90% of flowering plants and three quarters of crop species, world wide declines raise the spectre of global food shortages. Also fruits and seeds derived from insect pollinators are major parts of the diets for a quarter of all birds and mammals. A diverse and abundant wetland support plants which provide habitats for endangered species, and aquatic vegetation is a great filter which improves water quality which in turn attracts spawning fish.

In our own northern environment, Canada's Boreal Forest contains 25% of the world's wetlands, includes more surface freshwater than anywhere else on earth, stores twice as much carbon per acre as tropical rain forests which helps regulate global climate, buffers against floods in wet years and droughts in dry years, and are visited annually by approximately 40% of North America's waterfowl populations. The forest locks in carbon that would otherwise add to climate change and filter an incredible amount of fresh water. Outdoor enthusiasts and the forests' many communities rely on the

abundant natural resources for their livelihoods. DUC's understands that conservation, economic development and industry can co-exist and must progress together with the co-operation from hundreds of Canadian partners from a variety of sectors.

DUC's recognizes that the forest is a workplace for thousands of Canadians in the forest products, mining, oil and gas industries. Each year these industries build roads to access natural resources, and DUC's supports the people who work there providing information on how wetlands work, identifying best practices for constructing roads that don't stem the flow of water and impair the functions of the wetland.

When arriving at the DUC's party this year, with one year of experience in how to navigate the chances to score some great prizes, I checked out the display of goodies lining the walls of the banquet hall trying to decide into which bucket my potentially winning tickets would be more suited for my "senior wish list". Even though most of the prizes were geared to the outdoor enthusiast, there were many prizes which appealed to my discriminating tastes.

This year about a third of the attendees were newbees and a good number of guests

had travelled some distance to once again attend the much touted fundraiser. Returning Master of Ceremonies Al Cresswell welcomed guests and promised everyone a great time. Al introduced Scott Rudolf from Capreol, the Auctioneer leading the action, and Robert Watson, Senior Manager of Events and Volunteer Relations for Northern Ontario who explained just how the fundraising helps in our own community. It is important to stress that most of the dollars generated during the evening go back into our community to help local initiatives in our boreal forest management, community supports including hospital and medical care, Legion interests and helping financially with the restoration of our Wawa Goose. In addition to the donated items, much of the expense incurred is paid back to local providers and many of the prizes are purchased from local businesses.

With much appreciation, awards in recognition of volunteers with DUC milestones were presented to: Wendy Todesco for 3 years, Murray Davidson for 5 years and Jonathan Gatz for 10 years' service. The Municipality of Wawa, represented by Paul Weaver was recognized as an outstanding Corporate Sponsor.

Dinner, expertly catered by P & M Catering - Pat Heron and Michelle Terris was exceptional offering a turkey dinner and all the trimmings to rival a feast for royalty.

Congratulations goes out to Tim Mikus, winner of the Early Bird Draw, an impressive print "Yes Buoy" by Jeff Musseau. The prizes to be won were fantastic. Even for a very modest outlay, one had

a chance to win one of the top prizes offered, and for the more aggressive bidder the Silent and Live Auction offered fantastic limited edition prints by well reknown artists and other collectibles.

Tier Prizes, In for a Fin, Lucky Duck, Pick/Runt of the Litter, High Flyer, Heads & Tales and possibly the most coveted of all, the Firearms Frenzy kept everyone digging into their pockets to keep the momentum going. As the evening progressed the crowd got more boisterous with several tables seeming to win the lions' share of prizes....as in the Hornepayne group who did very well. The folk around my table became quite ansy as their "red tickets" did not score in winning a firearm in any of the many Firearms Frenzy draws. However in the last draw of the evening, the Top Tier Prize, our table finally scored - Corey took home his prize wish, that of a coveted chainsaw.

Again, fundraisers of this magnitude cannot be accomplished without sponsors and volunteers, and this year much appreciation goes to: corporate sponsors MacIntyre Trucking and Excavation, J. Provost Contracting Ltd, Canadian Tire, Wilderness Helicopters and Mission Motors, the long list of prize donors, ticket gals Debbie Veldt, Cindy Epert, Anita Desrochers and to Laurie East and the entire Wawa Ducks Unlimited Committee: Doris Zagar, Wally East, Garth Wheatley, Wendy Todesco, Sabrina Breakey, Michelle Wheatley, Jonathan Gatz, Tiffany Chiccarelli and Murray Davidson.

Well done everyone involved. Plan to attend this event same time next year, and be prepared to be amazed.

NUTS ‘N’ BOLTS

Opinions, or observations from an old newsman

- by Bob Avis

Spooks Abound At My House

Next Monday is Hallowe’en when spooks and goblins of all kinds come out to play … or otherwise. The spirits are not always as playful as we’d like to think. We have a problem in our house that doesn’t always wait for Hallowe’en. It can manifest itself at any time of the year.

I think this “thing” is in the basement most of the time, at least when it’s not upstairs lurking among Debra’s owl collection. I think there’s something sympathetic between her owls and whatever moves about our house in the night.

But there’s little doubt that most of whatever goes “bump” in the night is centered in the basement, a place of dark shadows and unexplained cold spots. Debra won’t go down there at all after it’s dark outside and frankly I won’t go down there unless I have to.

It doesn’t seem to bother the cats to go down there most anytime. Of course it’s kind of necessary for them; the litter boxes are down there. But that doesn’t seem to be the only reason they’ll go down cellar.

Summer is as black as the basement’s darkest moment and becomes one with the

darkness as though related to the night. Sam has a hideyhole of some sort down there where he can disappear for hours. Or perhaps he simply steps over into some other spiritual plane of existence where he can’t be found until he chooses to reveal himself.

I do know this is an old house with many secrets we will never know. Perhaps that old freezer against the back wall of the basement has something to do with certain strange manifestations in the house. It’s too big to get it out of the basement and the door seems to be welded shut. I wonder what could be inside of that ugly old rusting box..

Several times over the past year the plumbing in the house has taken to rattling, clattering and banging so hard the bathroom sink nearly dislodged itself from the wall.

Then the clatter would stop to be followed by a long eerie silence as though waiting for an answer.

Sometimes our house creaks, snaps and seems to shrug itself into a new position, especially in the winter time.

Ghosts or spirits? I don’t know. But I’ll be going to bed early on Hallowe’en!

We received an email from a fellow that used to come to the Library back in 2009 when he was 11 years old but has since moved away. I would like to share part of his email with you.

“It was my home away from home, where I could come to just read and be alone for a while when I needed it. And I just wanted to say thank you very much. Libraries don’t get enough credit these days. As safe, inviting spaces, there are few that can really compare.

You do really good work, and it sticks with people, in case you had forgotten. Keep being great.” It sure feels great to know that we make a difference.

“Carrying the message of Love” with Joan Brooks

The Quest For Transformation

Small Business Week Offers Info To Our Entrepreneurs

Article & photo by Barb Fisher Wawa's Economic Development Corporation kicked off the Small Business Week campaign supporting a series of seminars targetting the entrepreneurship in us all.

The EDC Facebook profile cleverly advertised the Small Business Week with the hook - "I create. I take risks. I live my passion. I am an entrepreneur!" And with this mantra in mind, several of our community's forward thinkers attended the workshops offered.

Making up more than 97% of all companies, small business is the backbone of the Canadian economy. To celebrate and recognize the importance of this sector, Oct 16 - 22 is Small Business Week across the country. The annual campaign is a nationwide celebration of entrepreneurship that the Business Development Bank of Canada (BDC) has been organizing for nearly 40 years. The BDC is the only bank devoted exclusively to entrepreneurs.

It promotes Canadian entrepreneurship with a focus on small and medium-sized businesses in all industries providing financing and advisory services.

Maury O'Neill representing Wawa Economic Development Corporation (EDC) introduced Andrew Ross, General Manager, Enterprises Services from Sault Ste. Marie representing the Millworks Centre for Entrepreneurship who conducted the first information session to a small group of interested business minded individuals. Andrew works with clients on business plan development from identifying and fleshing out key ideas to walking through business plan guides and how-to sessions, reviewing completed plans in an effort to look

for weaknesses and areas of missed opportunity. He talked about the importance of the first step, that of developing a sound business plan and strategies to turn the plan into success. Andrew promotes forward thinking. 90% of Business Owners are holding the status quo and doing ok, but it is the remaining 10% who challenge themselves to think outside the box, expand to another level, strategize on how to become the best in their field - these individuals are truly Entrepreneurs.

While being treated to pizza and refreshments in the Delta Room of North of 17 Restaurant, the condensed meeting progressed quickly offering an informal question/answer format whereby participants felt free to offer their experiences in building their business while learning from others. More indepth information is readily available and by contacting Maury O'Neill at the Wawa EDC, moneill@edcwawa.ca (705) 856-4419 the staff will be happy to direct queries to the appropriate professionals.

The next day, the informational seminars continued with a Lunch and Learn Seminar for female entrepreneurs held at the Community Centre.

This seminar, sponsored by Superior East Community Futures Development Corporation, Business Development Bank of Canada (BDC) and Chartered Professional Accountants Canada (CPA) was well attended with the ladies eager to exchange ideas on their business experiences. Catherine Debassige, Senior Account Manager, Aboriginal Banking with the BDC in Sudbury opened with the seminar's topic "Financial Survival for Entrepreneurs" for those who want to thrive in business, not just to survive in business. Catherine

introduced the seminar's host Josh Armstrong, Senior Accountant with Stefanizzi Professional Corporation CPA in the Soo who despite being gender outnumbered, bravely led the presentation giving much information focusing on Financial Survival for Entrepreneurs. Josh had a full agenda to cover, but welcomed questions and comments from the attendees as he covered topics in financial survival: key numbers to understand and monitor such as budgets, revenue, sales, expenses, operating profit, income before and after taxes, balance sheets, and ratios that make or break a business. It was a ton of information to digest in a short time, but at the end we were all asked to dissect a case study example whereby we could use the information offered to give our input on what could be done to improve the bottom line.

Much thanks goes out to Judy Page, one of our successful homegrown entrepreneurs, for her expertise in preparing the delicious lunch.

For more information on this seminar, contact Tracy Amos, General Manager, Superior East Community Futures Development Corporation here in Wawa, 705-856-1105 ext 222.

An Aboriginal Entrepreneurship Workshop will be held on Wednesday, November 2nd at the Community Centre and all Aboriginal and Metis entrepreneurs can call Linda Bouchard-Berzel 705-8564743 or linda.bouchard-berzel@ontario.ca.

Thank you to Wawa Entrepreneurs and Businesses during Small Business Week in Wawa. Together we can build on Wawa's resources in making a vibrant and safe place in which to live.

There is but one word that frees us of all the weight and pain in life. That word is Love, so says Socrates.

“In the quest for transformation perhaps the most important thing is to simply share Love, of yourself and others, on a momentby-moment basis with everyone you meet. What could be more powerful in truly transforming the world?” Ted Murray.

I would say that I Am simply on a transformative Path and have been for many years.

And so have You. There are so many ways an individual chooses to improve Self, to learn to trust Self. However, for me my Path is guided by a Loving God, and I am transforming quickly at this time in my Life. Yikes! In my trusty dictionary transform means to ‘make a thorough or dramatic change in the form, outward appearance, character, etc., of.’ For sure that is what has happened to me…I know my form – my physical body, has changed – the aging phenomenon has a whole lot to do with that, much to my dismay; my appearance has changed or so I’m told, the fat cells on my body have rearranged themselves and multiplied wanting to take up more space; and for sure my character has changed – I have learned to laugh even if sometimes I am slow to grasp humor; I like to think I’ve become more tolerant and understanding of all members of humanity. And what about a thorough and dramatic change? My decision to relocate to London, Ontario is about as dramatic as it gets.

And the thorough part has to do with downsizing from a 2 bedroom apartment to a one bedroom. Another change is that while there is green space around my new building, I will no longer be able to step outside my door and breathe in the aroma of Wawa Lake and the trees and wildlife that has made up my home for the past sixteen years. But it won’t take me long to develop a new schedule and route for walking or hiking. George Bernard Shaw said “We don’t stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” I don’t intend to stop playing. And the fun part

for me will be to see surprise, amazement and admiration from new relationships with my family. I Am simply trying to live a more peaceful, Loving, heart-centered life.

Blogger Ted Murray says “Learning to trust your inner knowing and being willing to follow its guidance is one of the keys to continued spiritual growth. Perhaps in these times is it important that you begin to trust your heart more than your head and follow your divine inner guidance wherever it may lead.”

And that is precisely what I am doing – trusting and following my heart.

No matter where we read or where we hear, we will hear or see the word transformative. Everything is changing, and that’s the way it should be. It is only when we want things to stay the same, or when we become conditioned to what is, or allow ourselves to be caught in a ‘rut’ that we get ourselves in trouble – mental, physical or spiritual. Life is about growth and change. Change our thinking and we change our lives.

Sometimes it appears we are doing nothing, just standing still. Oh yes, and we get antsy why is something is not happening, but for me something happened when my mind was totally focused on something else and ‘voila’.

Example, I’ve been waiting for an apartment in the Kettle Creek Villa in Port Stanley for the past fifteen months.

There has been no movement at all. Then, when I was facing eye surgery in London the last thing on my mind was Kettle Creek Villa. However, a family member decided I’d waited long enough and she took me apartment hunting in London. And we found a perfect place for me. I walked in and immediately felt ‘this is it’. All my fretting and pacing was for naught. Trust in the Lord with all thine heart and lean not on thine own understanding. In all thy way acknowledge him and he shall direct they paths. Yes, God works through people. I Love, Love, Love it! I Am so very Grateful! ‘til next time…this is Joan

Being Penny-Wise And Pound-Foolish When It Comes To Protecting Our Environment

Zombies Infiltrate Wawa In Support Of Our Food Bank

Article & photos by Barb Fisher Wawa's 4th Annual Zombie Walk got underway in Sunday afternoon's daylight hours so as not to scare anyone in the dark, and with a Wawa Volunteer Fire Department escort with sirens blazing all of our ghouls and gobblins were kept safe! Our little zombies had one quest in mind, that of walking from the Wawa Public Library to Mac's parking lot where many ghoulish delights awaited the non-squeemish and brave. Lisa Robert and daughter Lori were awaiting the spooky throng with tables laden with juice boxes, hot chocolate and marshmallows, and a magnificent spread of decadent goodies all prepared by Lisa who loves baking and celebrating any event in town whereby she can claim the "event planner of the season" award. This day's event was held to support Wawa's Food Bank, and asked for onlookers to donate a non-perishable food item to replenish the Food Bank's shelves. The Algoma News & Printing donated the advertising, posters, juice boxes and employees Ashley Omolida and Jan Gagnon drove behind all of the zombies to collect the donations from the zom-

bies and by standers enjoying to watch the walk. They also offered a $25.00 gift certificate to be used at the Algoma News & Printing store for sharing the Zombie Walk poster post on Facebook. After the walk, the winner was drawn and the lucky winner was Nic Nelson!

Congratulations!

Sometimes the little things in life make all the difference in family's lives and events such as these pay the good deeds forward. Much thanks to the Robert's family, Kristen, Ashley, Jan and everyone involved in making a difference in the lives of all the little friendly goblins who enjoyed the celebration.

Buntings in his travels for work this week too.

It was nearly -6C this morning and my bird baths were frozen solid so it's time to get the 'heated' bird bath out for the winter. Contrary to popular belief, these baths do not actually get warm: they are heated JUST enough to prevent freezing so the birds have a source of water to drink. Most will not bathe when temperatures dip below freezing as they naturally know the hazards ..... they do appreciate drinking water tho', when everything else is frozen.

Notes From The Bird Lady

Article & photos by Tammie Hache Manitouwadge, ON bthache@yahoo.ca Fall migrants are still passing through and winter birds are beginning to arrive.

I've been having great fun watching the antics of Blue Jays this week. I've had a high number of 6 so far in the yard, at once. Sometimes they are peaceful but most times, they argue and bicker with each other and chase the smaller Juncos & Sparrows away from the platform feeder. The king of the feeder is still the Ruffed Grouse. EVERYthing scatters when the Grouse comes in ....... except Chickadees. Chickadees will land on the feeder beside the Grouse, looking like 'David & Goliath', but they're peaceful together. It's all quite amusing.

Another Sparrow specie came through this week: a couple of American Tree Sparrows.

There weren't very many (just a couple so far, really) and they disappeared pretty quickly but I did see them. The White Crowned & White Throated Sparrows appear to have moved on as I'm not seeing any of either now. I still have approximately a dozen Dark Eyed Juncos here and oddly enough, they too are very squabbly (is that a word??) amongst themselves. I see them Male Purple Finch out there all the time doing high speed aerial maneuvers chasing each other all over the yard, in and out of the trees. Man, they are FAST! At least one Grouse is visiting every day now and likely will continue for the winter.

Hopefully, some relatives will join him/her eventually. The 2 Gray Jays are very sporadic visitors. I'm seeing them a couple of times per week, not everyday yet. Sure hope their visits increase. I dearly love Gray Jays!

Some Purple Finches finally returned to my yard just Male Pine Grosbeak today! I've been wondering what happened with them as all the Finches disappeared at the end of August. These 3 males are the first I've seen since then but since it's already the end of October, I doubt they'll be sticking around for long. Hopefully, I'll still get to see some Goldfinches & Pine Siskins before winter really moves in.

My first winter bird of the season came in this week: a gorgeous male Pine Grosbeak. American Tree Sparrow A friend reported seeing 4 of

Safety During Moose Hunt

The Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry will be stepping up enforcement efforts with a focus on safety in northeastern Ontario this fall. In particular, during the regular gun calf season for moose from October 22 to November 4, conservation officers will be checking hunters to ensure compliance with hunter orange requirements and safe use of firearms. Fines range from $100 to $250 for offences involving these matters. In more serious cases, offenders could face fines of up to $25,000, or imprisonment, or both.

To ensure a safe and lawful hunt, hunters are reminded that: • All persons in possession of a firearm for the purpose of hunting must not handle or discharge it or cause it to be handled or discharged without due care and attention for persons and property.

Firearms include air guns, bows and crossbows, as well as traditional rifles and shotguns.

• Any hunting injury caused by the discharge of a firearm resulting in medical treatment by a physician must be reported to a Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry conservation officer.

• If you are in an area inhabited by wildlife, or on the way to or from an area inhabited by wildlife, you cannot have a loaded firearm in a vehicle, motorboat or aircraft or discharge a firearm from any of these modes of transportation.

There are exceptions for mobility-impaired persons and for persons hunting waterfowl.

• It is illegal to shoot from, down or across a public road.

• During the period from half an hour after sunset to half an hour before sunrise, it is illegal have an unencased or loaded firearm in an area usually inhabited by wildlife. Hunters with a licence to hunt raccoons at night must have their

firearms encased while in a vehicle. Consult the 20162017 Hunting Regulations Summary for definitions of "loaded" for traditional firearms and for bows, crossbows and muzzleloaders.

• All hunters must wear solid hunter orange clothing (minimum of 400 square inches or 2,580 square centimetres above the waist) and a hunter orange head cover, except during a "bows-only" season. Mesh-type construction vests are not acceptable.

• A hunter cannot possess a game seal issued to another person. Ontario has a new Moose Tag Transfer Policy. Please consult the 2016-2017 Hunting Regulations Summary for more information.

• Hunters must make sure they are targeting a moose for which they are licensed.

They need to be able to distinguish between a bull, cow and calf moose.

• After a moose is killed, the game seal holder must immediately attach the game seal to the moose in the manner prescribed on the seal, and it must remain attached during transportation.

• Hunters must disassemble and remove any temporary structures erected on Crown land for hunting moose.

Conservation officers may also enforce Small Vessel Regulations and sections of the Liquor Licence Act. For information on hunting regulations and moose seasons, please consult the 2016-2017 Hunting Regulations Summary, available from licence issuers, Service Ontario/Government Information Centres and at ontario.ca/hunting.

To report a natural resources violation, call the MNRF TIPS line at 1-877-847-7667 toll-free any time or contact your local ministry office during regular business hours. You can also call Crime Stoppers anonymously at 1-800-222TIPS (8477).

The ALGOMA NEWS Review

BASIC BLACK

Arthur Black

Ground Control To America: Wake Up Here's a quote from Carlos Beruff, a Florida businessman: “For seven and one half years, this animal we call president – because he is an animal, okay?

-- has destroyed the country and dismantled the military...”

Think about that. A mature American citizen is talking about the elected leader of his country. Beruff also happens to be a career Republican and a candidate for the United States Senate.

Roll that around in your mouth before you spit it out.

There was a time when even the sleaziest politicians at least tugged their forelocks in the direction of civil speech and respectful pronouncements.

That of course, was BT – before Trump. The Manhattan megalomaniac never actually called Obama an animal, but he did spend the past five years slyly insinuating that Obama was born in Africa before grudgingly admitting it wasn't true. He also called the 44th president of the United States a traitor, a fool, a friend of terrorists and, in fact, the head of ISIS. And we are just weeks away from finding out whether – I can't believe I'm typing this – whether this lying, cheating, misogynistic, ranting, racist, bullying, possibly psychotic balloon of noxious gas will become the 45th president of the United States.

Yet for all his transformative appallingness, it isn't Donald Trump that should cause us to shudder. It's the fact that millions – millions – of Americans regard him as a saviour. T'was ever thus. As another huckster, P.T. Barnum said, nobody ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American people.

Or any other 'people', come to that. Consider Joseph Stalin in Russia. In just one year, 1937-38,

loveable old Uncle Joe ordered a million countrymen to be murdered by his henchmen. He also sent at least 18 million Russians to Gulags – brutal prison camps in Siberia. And he let somewhere between five million and ten million peasants starve to death for failing to meet his agricultural quotas.

An unqualified monster, right? Reviled from Moscow to Minsk?

Wrong. In 2015 a poll found 45 percent of Russians believed the 'great' achievements of the Stalin era 'justified' the toll of victims.

Then there's China. In the late 1950's, 45 million Chinese died in the Great Famine that was caused by Mao's so-called Great Leap Forward. His Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution snuffed out another two million citizens. Most historians would rank him among the top criminals of the 20th century. Yet earlier this year 2.5 million admirers took part in an “online flowerlaying campaign” to honour The Great Helmsman.

Mussolini, Hitler, Pol Pot. Putin in Russia, Duterte in the Philippines. Something there is in humanity that loves a brute.

Which brings us back to Trump, a cartoon villain straight out of a Batman movie. Except he's real and election day is almost here. Solution? Obama said it.

“There has never been a man or woman more qualified than Hillary Clinton to serve as the next US president.”

No, she isn't warm and fuzzy.

Neither was LBJ. He was possibly the nastiest SOB the White House ever housed. But he got more civil rights legislation passed than any president before or since.

Trump is an unqualified nightmare, but nightmares can be dealt with. All America needs to do is wake up.

With Jim White

The Halloween Mystery At Ghostley Manor It was a couple of days before Halloween. Frank Enstein, his wife Bella and their teen-year old daughter Roxanne, were going to be confronted with a mystery, or more like a scary ghost story, that turned out to be a precursor to the events on Halloween night, October 31, 1893.

They lived in a spooky, rundown three-story red brick mansion, with a rusty iron gate and fence surrounding it. It sat conspicuously at the top of the only hill in the area at the edge of the village of Sleepyhallow. Elm Street, the main street, ended at their location in a cul-de-sac.

The oldtimers reminded everyone that asked, that this house was once the finest house in the village. It was constructed

by Roger Wolfman, a founding father, back in the 1860's. He was a tycoon who made his fortune in the railway business. The road ended up there for obvious reasons. Whenever the Wolfmans' held a gala event at their mansion, called Ghostley Manor, in honour of his mother, Agatha Ghostley, the gate was always open, for the carriages to swing up to the front entrance, drop off the guests, and then pull off to the side while they waited for the guests to leave after the party was over. That made it easy for the carriages to exit the property afterwards, and head back to their own houses in the village or beyond.

Every Halloween there was always a masquerade ball held there. All the guests had to come in a costume reflecting the Halloween theme. Masks were mandatory. Other than that, it was up to the guest to show up in whatever costume they could imagine. Children from the village were allowed to come too, between 5 and 6 p.m. They were to come in costume, and were fed cookies and milk in the back porch, before leaving with a treat of homemade caramel apples, and a bag of popcorn. That left time for them to get home, and the parents, where applicable, to get ready for the evening ball. It was always a great evening that everyone looked forward to every year.

That is until 1866. That was the night that Wolfman, his wife Sofia, and their young daughter Matilda were all found murdered in the wine cellar down in the basement. It was a real mystery of its' time.

Everyone had gathered in the ballroom, dancing the night away.

Usually at eleven at night, the Wolfmans' would invite everyone into the music room for wine and cheese, or coffee. On the table would be a huge Halloween themed cake like a carved pumpkin. There was always a small bag of homemade fudge and candies imported from England especially for the occasion, on the same table. Everyone was invited to take one home with them as they left.

This year, though, Alfred the butler had waited for the word from Mr. Wolfman to bring up the chilled wine and begin to pour it into the glasses. When he still hadn't appeared by eleven, he

made a 'management' decision to go down to the wine cellar himself, and begin bringing the cases of wine up. He was sure that Mr. Wolfman must have just lost track of time. But when he got to the door of the cellar, he was puzzled that the door was open ajar. He immediately thought that Mr. Wolfman was down here himself, looking for the wine. He called out to him, and rushed into the room. The flickering light from the candles mounted on the wall made him stop 'dead' in his tracks as he saw the horrific sight in front of him. He gasped, staring at them, transfixed in horror. The three of them had had their throats slashed, and were all laying in a pool of blood on the dirt floor. One of the kitchen staff came down to help just then.

Her scream jolted him out of his trance. He turned to her, and ushered her out of the cellar.

The police were sent for, and the festive mood turned into shock as all the guests learned of the grizzly murders that had happened right under their feet, in the midst of a delightful party.

Everyone was held for questioning. Eventually they were all allowed to go, and the house was closed up. The servants all moved out to other jobs.

The gate was locked, and was never occupied again for several years. The family was buried in the family plot out behind the mansion.

The murders were never solved. After about two years, the legal process had worked its' way through the court system. A new family moved in about a week before Halloween, 1869. They stayed there only until Halloween night. They later claimed that it was about ten when they started hearing strange noises, and doors slamming shut and or opening up. They felt a cold air swirling around the ballroom and music room. Then at eleven they heard screaming noises coming from the cellar. The man went downstairs to investigate. He was surprised when he was greeted with three people standing at the doorway to the wine cellar. They appeared to be covered in wine stains, which showed up very distinctly on their white garments. He asked them who they were, and if they were okay. He fainted as they rushed past him, and flew up the stairs to the kitchen doorway. He reported afterwards of being so cold, but put it down to the cold emanating from the wine cellar. After quickly recovering, he dashed upstairs to join the others. His wife and daughter were cowering under the kitchen table. They told him of seeing the same images rushing past them and heading for the music room. They were totally unnerved. When the disturbances and screaming started up again at midnight, they had had enough, and quickly left the house in the middle of the night. They never returned.

Over the years, several other occupants tried to live there, but were also soon scared off. Finally no one would live there, and it became notorious as being haunt-

ed.

That is until the Ensteins'. They moved into the rundown house in April of 1893. But those rumours didn't seem to bother them. They made no effort to fix up the house either. They were always being tormented anytime they went to town, for being so weird looking, dressing funny, and talking in a hard to understand accent. They just went about their business.

They never ventured out of their house that much. What they did up there nobody from the village was sure.

Actually, he was a scientist who was doing experiments on the molecular structure of the human brain. He was connected with a distinguished university in Vienna, Austria. They had agreed to pay his expenses in order to allow him complete privacy at this residence, and to give him the chance to fast-track his studies. They wanted his results by the end of December. His wife was his assistant, and tutor to Roxanne.

They never noticed any indication of the house being haunted until the last couple of days before Halloween. It began first with the discovery of a tin box in one of the drawers of the old writing desk in the study by Bella on the afternoon of October 29th. She had wanted to do some dusting and other cleaning before making some fudge and candies to put in paper bags for the kids.

She wasn't sure if any kids would come, but she wanted to be prepared. This was the only day that she was free from helping Frank, and not having to go over lessons with Roxanne.

Ever since moving in, cleaning had not been a priority, and certainly this old desk that came with the house, held no interest to her. But this day, she decided to open the drawers and see what was in them. Tucked way in the back of this one side drawer was an intriguing box. It had a macabre painting on the lid of the box of a house that looked similar to this one, enveloped in flames. She looked closer at it, and noticed a small signature in the right hand corner. She found a magnifying glass, and brought it into a size large enough to read it. In black ink was the name Dracula Enstein. She dropped the tin box onto the desk top, as she was startled at the name. She was going to call Frank, but decided to open the box first, just to see what was inside. Then she would bring it to him, she decided.

Inside the box was a note scratched out in red ink. It read: 'To Whomever Reads This Letter – If you find that I have been murdered, just know that it was my business partner, Edgar Allan Enstein who plotted to do it. If it does happen, I put a curse on all his family, and if any one of them puts foot in this house, I will see that they die by the same method as I. Furthermore, I will ensure this house goes up in flames, casting them to eternal damnation in hell. This will occur on October 31st. Be Forewarned.' It was signed by Roger Wolfman, and dated October 31, 1866.

Bella was disturbed with what she had read. Then her mind went racing, as she reviewed their family tree. She remembered that Frank's grandfather was named Edgar. He had a brother named Dracula. It came flooding back to her. She remembered Frank discussing them several times, especially when he was trying to cajole Roxann to do her homework. Yes,

Edgar did work for a railway line as an executive – or maybe it was a partner. Dracula was a painter.

She gasped as she realized it was him that painted this tin box.

She became frightened, and ran to get Frank, who was just finishing some notes on his latest test that he conducted in his lab that he had built next to the wine cellar.

After he had read the note, he shook his head. “Imagine that.”

Bella continued with concern.

“You aren't concerned at all, are you? But what if it is true? It's even worse than in the note. He had no way of knowing that his wife and daughter would also be murdered as well as himself, as he wrote it that day. What if all three come back to kill us, and burn this house down on Halloween night? I think we better leave today. Let's not take any chances.

Please, Frank.” He tried to calm her down. Eventually he succeeded, and they decided to stay.

That night she woke up just before midnight. She heard the distinct footsteps of three people walking down the hallway and stopping outside their bedroom.

Then she heard a metal on metal rubbing noise, as if someone was sharpening a knife. Finally she heard a man's deep voice utter these chilling words: “We are coming for you. You released the curse when you opened that tin box, and your fate is now sealed.”

She froze in terror. She shook Frank to waken him, just in time to hear the rattling of the doorknob.

But as he woke up, it stopped.

The house became eerily quiet.

He asked her, “What is it? I don't hear anything.” She said in a shaky voice, “I heard it. They threatened to kill us. They were trying to get in just as you awoke. Frank, I'm scared. We gotta leave this house immediately.”

He tried to calm her down.

“Now, Bella, I think you were likely just having a nightmare. You know how you get those after eating those cucumber sandwiches in the evening. I'm sure that was all it was. C'mon, cuddle down next to me, and go back to sleep.

It'll be all right.”

She gave in, although she knew it was no nightmare. It really happened. But her exhaustion hit her hard, and she felt safe in his arms. She soon drifted off to sleep. Frank lay awake, pondering what she claimed.

As so often happens, things seemed a lot better in the morning. They both got back into their routines, although he noticed that Bella was a lot more nervous and distracted. Roxann seemed unaffected. October 30th was just a normal day. Even Halloween night started out quiet at the Manor. As Bella expected, nobody showed up for candy.

Meanwhile, about eleven a couple of teenagers from the village were sneaking up to the Manor to check it out, and play a trick on them. They had just jumped the rusted fence when they heard blood-curdling screams coming from the house. That scared them off.

Then shortly after midnight, the lone police officer in the village was on patrol, and he noticed smoke billowing up from the hill.

It began to drift toward town, thanks to the prevailing wind blowing that night. He rushed over to the fire chief's house.

Before long, the small group of firefighters were on their way up the hill to the Manor. By then it was engulfed in flames. Because they had to shuttle water up and

The ALGOMA NEWS Review

down the hill, it soon became evident that they were not going to be able to save it.

On the morning of November 1st, they were finally able to get close enough to the pile of rubble that was left. There was still some smoldering beams and furniture throwing up smoke. The police chief gingerly moved around until he stopped short. He realized he had come to the wine cellar. He thought he saw a hand poking up through a couple of beams. He slowly made his way closer. He was able to kick one of the beams out of his way. He was shocked with what he found. Laying beside the wine cabinet were the three bodies of the Ensteins'. As he leaned in closer, he gasped, and nearly threw up. All three of them had their necks slashed. He was amazed that the bodies had not been burnt beyond recognition, considering the intensity of the flames as the house burned to the ground. Very strange, he commented. For some reason, his mind flashed back to the Wolfman murders back in 1866.

He was a young officer in those days. That had been his first case that he had been involved in. The Einsteins' were in the identical positions as the Wolfman family. Ironic too, that both families consisted of a man, a woman, and a girl.

Suddenly a glint of light in his face brought him back from his thoughts to the reality of the situation at hand. He noticed that it was coming from an object in Mrs. Einstein's left hand. He bent over, and pried it open. He saw that it was just a small tin box. He commented, “Humph. I wonder why she is clutching that.” Before he could pursue that thought, a couple of officers came up behind him, asking if he had found anything. He replied no, as he pocketed the tin box. He needed more time to sort this out, as the evidence he saw was beyond a rational explanation.

Later that day he was found dead amid the ashes of the Manor, next to the remains of the wine cellar, with his throat slashed. It was a shock to everyone, and threw the investigation into turmoil. In fact, these cases were never solved, and it still remains a mystery to this day, as to what really happened that Halloween night of 1893, and the following day...

The Manor is long gone. A double-lane highway now goes over it. And it's bizarre that many people have reported a cold air sucking into their vehicles as they pass through this small area. There is also a whiff of smoke too, and a faint screaming sound. Everybody claims it is just vehicle exhaust from all the other traffic going by them, and the whistle of the wind in windows is just because they were not rolled up tightly. But maybe it is something more horrific or eerie, to say the least, don't you think?... Jasper Wail, reporter for the Boston Globe, Wednesday, October 26, 2016.

How to beat Str8ts – Like Sudoku, no single number can repeat in any row or column. But... rows and columns are divided by black squares into compartments. These need to be filled in with numbers that complete a ‘straight’. A straight is a set of numbers with no gaps but can be in any order, eg [4,2,3,5]. Clues in black cells remove that number as an option in that row and column, and are not part of any straight. Glance at the solution to The solutions will be published here in the next issue. see how ‘straights’ are formed.

IN MEMORIAM In loving memory of my dear husband and love of my life KLAUS DIETER KNORZ, who left us on October 22nd, 1997.

When we first met, we were but children knowing little of life and of what was to come. As we grew in life, we also grew in love. Together, we learned how to love and how to laugh. Through the many ups and downs of life's challenges, we shared the joyful happiness our loving marriage provided. The fruit of our love continues on today in the lives of our three children. You taught us about loving unconditionally as we lived through challenging times. You showed us about commitment as you worked countless hours in the numerous jobs you faithfully maintained to always ensure we had more than enough. You taught us discipline as you always helped your loved ones be the best they could be. You helped us understand priorities by always putting your family first time and again. You demonstrated sacrifice in the numerous hours you spent for your family serving as a hockey coach, a teacher, a counsellor, and as a trusted friend. Most of all, you showed by your example how to be a loving, devoted husband and a caring, dedicated father who proved that, even when there was no instruction manual, LOVE will always find a way to work through any challenge life throws at you. While I miss you every day, I am comforted by the fond memories we share, the life I see you live on through our children, and the bonus we received in our beautiful grandchildren. Until we can dance again, gone but not forgotten.

Your loving wife always, Jeanne Knorz

Last Week's Answers

For the week of October 26th to November 1st, 2016 Is your birthday this week? You are beautiful, reserved (at the same time as being outspoken and boisterous), and kind. Your intelligence may be sought after and respected, and may earn you recognition and admiration overseas. You may make money through secure partnerships.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Try to give loved ones the benefit of the doubt. This could be a beautiful time. Your loved ones would do anything for you, but you do not seem to wish for them to do anything helpful at this time.

Loved ones may give you hugs and advice. If you feel like going out don’t be alarmed if someone acts unusually aloof.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You might wish to avoid chemicals or artificial substances.

Try to do everything in holistic and natural ways to feel better.

Someone may fall deeply in love with you due to your morals and strong stance upon certain issues.

Sudden changes may occur at your workplace or near you due to your powerful influence.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Advice may be similar to something you heard during the summer, because of two distantly but distinctly related events. There might be something that helps you in unforeseen ways or that may act as a hindrance before you know it. Don’t let problems sneak up on you when you can figure out a solution beforehand.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Try to fill your home with art and music while you have a chance.

You truly value memories/ children. You may be drawn into powerful obsessions and dreams.

Dreams may come true at some point this week. Avoid dwelling upon negative things. Expect misunderstandings and miscommunications through the next three weeks.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Someone is confused. You’re talking a tad bit over the heads of others without meaning to. Try to dumb things down. There may be conversations related to love and forgiveness. You are a patient, passionate sort. True love may be over the horizon. Words and travel can do you wonders. Look to a friend for more advice.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): You’ll gain approval from others. This is a time of either melancholy or joy, but always success. There may be issues related to your immediate surroundings, your conscience, or your environment. There might be mishaps regarding how your morals appear to others or miscommunications with your workplace. Good news!

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): There are lessons to be learned that you may take deeply to your heart. Luck will come to you in brave and bright ways. You might be able to showcase how musical and graceful you can be, if you just try a little bit harder. You will appear somewhat awkward to conservative sorts. Your charm can be an acquired taste.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You will know the right things to share and with the right people, but still you may be afraid. It’s time to trust in those who deserve your trust.

There will be situations that deal with your level of intelligence or your ability to communicate. Try to focus on what needs to be done and what can wait until later.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): All of this busyness and time spent craving silence and solace will soon be resolved and rewarded.

There may be a situation that requires your attention involving a loved one or romantic partner.

You might regret not following through with a plan or promises from previous years. Passion runs deep. Try to work alone.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Something that you began a long time ago may help you work harder than ever! Revel in your stubbornness and act naturally. There will be a test of your skills or ability to care for someone you love. There might be a chance for you to show how deeply you care. Trust feelings and take the lead. Avoid suspicion/ jealousy.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You might be unaware of someone’s admiration, longing, and affection.

Differences made now could help you achieve educational goals. It’s a wonderful week for artists or lovers. There may be many who vie for your attention or affection.

A child may need less time working and more time just playing and having silly fun.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Do you ever wonder what might have been? Don’t behave in manipulative ways to gain attention or control-Act earthy and naturally.

A trick may remind you of something from your past. This event might have granted you courage or happiness or could have laid obstacles. Something odd at home is due to outside influence.
