Frank Burgess of Williams Lake said the Distinguished Flying Cross he received in 1943 was because he was very lucky. Reflecting on his experiences as a Second World War pilot the Wednesday before Remembrance Day, the 93-year-old said he lost so many friends in the war. “I had only been with the Royal Air Force Squadron 61 Group 5 Bomber Squad about one week when I realized it was a hopeless case,” he recalled. Fetching his treasured pilot’s log book from a bookshelf in his living room, Burgess turned to an entry he made on Dec. 16, 1943. That’s the day that resulted in his DFC medal. “I was a pilot in charge of an aircraft detailed to attack Berlin,” he recalled. “I got the award because I carried on when I could have turned back.” Two hundred and fifty miles from the target, one of the four engines on the Lancaster he was flying quit. Instead of turning back, Burgess persisted and the crew made a successful attack. See BOMB Page A10

Rural crime rash prompts response they are prolific offenders, are pretty good at what they do and hard to attach to the crimes they commit, he said, making it a challenge for policing success. “When we do make an arrest we’re usually able to make a big difference because it’s one person or just a few who are responsible for 90 per cent of the property crime.” Rural Crime Watch exists out west, but one of the problems is always finding capacity. “It’s not like Williams Lake where they have 150 volunteers for community policing. We might have 10.” Residents will have to be trained and Hacker said they are probably a few weeks away from doing any patrolling. Any community policing program would have to be tailored to the specifics of Alexis Creek, he added. The detachment is responsible for five different First Nations
Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer A continued rash of property crimes in and around Alexis Creek has provoked residents to form a Citizens on Patrol program. “We had about 25 people out to a meeting here last night,” said Alexis Creek Sgt. Michael Hacker Wednesday. “It was the third meeting we’ve had. We’re still in the organizing phase.” Hacker said there has been an increase in stolen vehicles, break-andenters and property crime in the area due to offenders between Williams Lake and Alexis Creek returning to their respective communities to commit crime. “Those particular offences are most visible to the public,” Hacker said. “Other types of crime generally don’t have the same kind of impact that property crime does.” Most of the thieves, if

communities, as well as several non-First Nations communities in the Cariboo Chilcotin area. “There are a number of different communities. In some ways they have common interests, in other areas they don’t, depending on the demographics within those areas.” The detachment is working as hard as it can with its resources, he said. “We’ve never tried some of the community policing efforts that are established in Williams Lake. It is a challenge in a small environment,” Hacker said. Usually the same people sign up to volunteer to make their communities better. “These folks are busy, busy people. Their ranching operations are a 24-hour a day operation and to ask them to come out and do a patrol for two to three hours is going to be difficult.”

AN APPLE A DAY... Many people might be experiencing more frequent headaches due to the pain relievers they are taking. This condition is called medication overuse headache. The theory is that pain sensation is reset and there is a rebound effect between doses. The way to stop this is to wean yourself off the drug slowly over a few months. Can be difficult but ironically can result in fewer headaches. There are many gourmet salts on the market. They are made differently but chemically they are all the same. They contain sodium chloride. They are not healthier salts. Some salts making that claim substitute potassium or magnesium for some of the sodium so that could be called “healthier”.

to Cariboo Memorial Hospital in Williams Lake where he is being treated for non lifethreatening injuries to his collarbone. Both were extracted by Central Cariboo Search and Rescue, Vrolyk said, adding at the time of the crash, the road was covered by slush and ice.

Razor recycling for Movember
Monica Lamb-Yorski photo
Cariboo Regional District waste manager Tera Grady spreads the word about recycling razors during “Movember.” Visit www.electrocyle.ca for the nearest drop-off location.
With November being the month when Canadian men grow or cultivate moustaches to raise awareness of prostate cancer ElectroReycle B.C. is encouraging razor recycling. ElectroRecycle, B.C.’s small appliance and power tool recycling program, is donating $5 to Movember for every electric and rechargeable razor, beard trimmer, and shaver collected during the month of November, up to a maximum of $10,000. Approximately 1,000 electric razors and trimmers are collected by ElectroRecycle each month – an estimated 18,900 to date, or 22,500 kg. With the $10,000 goal in mind, the program is hoping to double the monthly collection rate for November.
More recycling means “Mo” money for cancer research and awareness. “We hate to see a month’s worth of growing get wiped away with a dull, rusty or slow razor,” said Julie Robertson, program coordinator at ElectroRecycle. “Recycling old and broken razors is helping cancer research and awareness, the environment and your upper lip. It’s a mo-brainer.” Prostate cancer is the most common cancer to afflict men in Canada with approximately 23,600 men diagnosed annually. One in seven males will suffer from this form of cancer in their lifetime. It is the third most common cause of cancer death in Canadian men. However, if detected and treated early, there
is a 95 per cent survival rate. Movember is a global charity and movement that seeks to combat prostate and testicular cancer and mental health challenges. In 2012, more than 247,000 Canadians participated in Movember, raising $42.6 million. “ElectroRecycle encourages British Columbians to make a positive impact on the environment by taking simple actions to reduce their waste,” said Laura Selanders, president of the Canadian Electrical Stewardship Association (CESA), the agency operating ElectroRecycle. “This is one example of how people can support recycling while also helping a cause that is so important both locally and globally.”
Taseko Mines Ltd. cries foul on seepage study Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer Taseko Mines Ltd. is questioning the validity of the environmental panel report when it comes to estimating seepage rates from the tailings pond for the New Prosperity Mine. “We found out about this on Monday when Knight Piesfold, our lead engineering company, brought it to our attention,” said Brian Battison, Taseko’s vice-president of corporate affairs. “We felt we had an obligation to make it public.”
It’s clear, Battison said, that Natural Resources Canada relied on the wrong design in its analysis. “Maybe they made up their own or chose their own design. The panel relied on this wrong information and came to some conclusions,” Battison said. “It calls into question the validity of the panel’s findings on significant adverse environmental effects of fish and fish habitat.” Reacting from Ottawa Thursday morning, Tsilhqot’in National Government chair Chief

Joe Alphonse described Taseko’s actions as a “very desperate” move. “This isn’t elementary school, these are all professional, highly regarded respected individuals,” Alphonse said of the panel. “If it was that blatant of a flaw then why didn’t they as a company point that out during the time the environmental panel review was going on and happening.” Alphonse said he doesn’t buy the company’s claims. “How many times does a company have to
be disrespectful before they are considered respectful? I am embarrassed for this company.” A spokesperson for the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency said Wednesday the agency will not comment on the panel report. “The minister will make a decision about the project in accordance with the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act 2012,” said Lucille Jamault, CEAA communications manager in an e-mailed response. “Should the minister decide that the project is
likely to cause significant adverse environmental effects, the federal cabinet would make a decision on whether or not the significant effects would be justified in the circumstances.” Battison said Taseko has notified Leona Aglukkaq, Minister of Environment, the company plans to file legal action and request that she receive and consider additional information prior to making any determination. “That submission is expected in the next few weeks,” Battison said.
Horoscope Aries, seek the advice of a mentor or confidante when a puzzling situation presents itself this week. Another person’s perspective might be all you need to solve this problem. Taurus, getting the job done just isn’t enough. You always need to get it done to the best of your ability and that’s why others find you so reliable. Gemini, focus your energy on work this week, as a possible promotion is looming over the horizon. Give work your best efforts, and you will soon be glad you did. Cancer, sometimes the key to success is to know when to step back and recharge. This week, spend some time resting and relaxing, and you will have the energy needed to go forward. Leo, you may be looking for something new to occupy your time. Try learning a new sport or language. It will keep your brain sharp and pass the time in a productive way. Virgo, this week is a great time to stop procrastinating and to get back on track. Figure out a time when you have the most energy, and dive right into the task at hand. Libra, get behind a cause that will benefit your community. You have been interested in giving back to others, and this week presents a great opportunity to do just that. Scorpio, you love to socialize with friends and family, but lately time has been hard to come by. Plan a get-together with friends and family.
Sagittarius, you can handle difficult situations with ease and your loved ones know it. When such a situation presents itself this week, don’t be afraid to take charge. Capricorn, others trust what you have to say and want to follow along with your guidance. Cherish this trust and think carefully before making decisions that affect loved ones. Aquarius, sort out an ongoing issue that has been compromising your focus at work. Once you clear your mind, you can once again focus on your career. Pisces, you may find yourself spending more time with your social circle than your family in the next few days.

Flu vaccine available Monica Lamb-Yorski Staff Writer
Angie Mindus photo
Public health staff set up shop in the basement of the Cariboo Bethel Church Tuesday and Wednesday to offer free flu vaccines to the public. Anyone who still wants to get a flu shot can do so at local pharmacies, doctor’s offices or public health.
Royal Inland experiences c-difficile outbreak While Royal Inland Hospital in Kamloops is dealing with a number of patients affected by the clostridium difficile (c. difficile) bacteria, Interior Health said zero cases have been confirmed at Cariboo Memorial Hospital in Williams Lake recently. Symptoms of the feared bacteria are gastro-intestinal and can be fatal. At Royal Inland, of the 14 patients ex-
hibiting symptoms, half have been confirmed to have c. difficile while the others are being tested. RIH administrator Marg Brown said the patients, most of them on a medical unit, have gastro-intestinal symptoms. Dr. Edith BlondellHill is the Interior Health Authority expert on infectious diseases. She said once an outbreak occurs, it’s key to get patients to

get on oral antibiotics as soon as possible, something Brown said has happened. Washing hands with soap and water is critical in stopping an outbreak, which can occur in hospitals but also in the community. With files from Kamloops This Week
A two-day influenza vaccination clinic held at Cariboo Bethel Church in Williams Lake finished up Wednesday with almost 800 vaccines administered by local health nurses. Williams Lake public health nurse Lyn Temple said the number of vaccines given during the two-day blitz might be down from 2012, but the flu vaccine clinics started later this year. And, she added, they will continue at the Williams Lake public health clinic, local pharmacies and doctor’s offices by appointment. “This year we introduced the flu vaccine in nasal mist form for children and it was really popular,” Temple said. “It is available for children ages two to 17 who are eligible for the publicly-funded flu vaccine.” It’s administered through the nose with no needle, just two little puffs, she explained. Eligibility criteria for the free vaccine has
been expanded this year to include anyone who visits residential care homes or acute care. “If you live with someone who has diabetes or has a baby, or are in contact with high-risk people, you are eligible for the free flu shots.” The criteria isn’t universal, but it’s pretty broad, she added. Temple is still encouraging more people to get the vaccine. “The highest incidence of death for a vaccine-preventable disease is the flu and hundreds of people die from flu influenza every single year.”
As a health worker she gets the vaccine even though she’s healthy because she’s always around vulnerable people whose immune systems may not be as robust, she said. “We’re protecting ourselves and the people around us — seniors, children and people with chronic health conditions.” Vaccine clinics will take place at Williams Lake Health Unit on Borland Street from 8:45 a.m. to noon on Nov. 22, Nov. 29, Dec. 6, Dec. 13, Dec.20, by appointment only. The cost for the vaccine the non publiclyfunded vaccine is $22.

Lest we forget Remembrance Day is upon us, and during this time we encourage everyone to take a moment to reflect upon and pay their respects to those who fought for, and continue to serve our country. Schools throughout School District 27 will hold Remembrance Day services today (Friday). On Monday, Nov. 11, the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 139 will lead the services for the community with ceremonies beginning at the Gibraltar Room. Doors open at 9 a.m. and entry by the colour party and veterans will start at 9:30 a.m. After the Gibraltar service at 10 a.m. the colour party, led by Gordon Keener, pipe band and participants will march to the Cenotaph at city hall for the 11 a.m. two minutes of silence, followed by the traditional laying of wreaths. In an aerial salute, the Williams Lake Flying Club are also planning to fly over the city in missing man formation to honour fallen pilots. The Silver Cross Mother is Faith Andre this year. Following the services at city hall, Branch 139 president Joyce Norberg said the public is invited
for a pot-luck lunch and fellowship upstairs at the Legion while hot chocolate and hot dogs will be served in the Lower Legion Hall for the young participants of the services. The Old Time Fiddlers will be on hand to entertain at the Legion in the early afternoon, and at 4:30 p.m. Save On Foods will serve a beef dip for the occasion. Perfect Match will also entertain guests after 4:30 p.m. Currently there are more than 20 Williams Lake residents serving our country in various capacities around the world. Anyone who needs a ride to the service or wishes to lay a wreath is asked to contact Branch 139 at 250-392-7311 or 250-392-4255. This Remembrance Day pays special honour to those who served in the Korean War. Canada participated on the side of the United Nations in the Korean War, which lasted three years from 1950 to 1953. In all 26,000 Canadians participated in the conflict, with Canada sending eight destroyers while also providing aircraft support for transport, supply and logistics. Historical records indicate 516 Canadians died in the Korean conflict, with 312 of those deaths being incurred during combat.

POPPY CAMPAIGN RAISES FUNDS
Photo submitted
Mayor Kerry Cook receives the first poppy from Vivian MacNeil of the Royal Canadian Legion recently. The Poppy Campaign raises funds for the needs of veterans and their families.
It all made sense at the time; it doesn’t now Hunting season being upon us, and while the sounds of rifle shots are echoing among the hills and truck campers go by hauling deer and moose, I recall a few memorable hunts of my own. To start with, my dad gave me a single shot .22 when I was about 12 (which I still own to this day), and I began to develop a hunter’s instinct and feel the thrill of bagging my own game. In those days it was partridge or the odd rabbit. So when I got my first 12-gauge shotgun, a single shot Cooey, I started after ducks in earnest. I scraped together from my meager savings enough to buy a female mallard decoy. Setting it out on

the lake and hiding behind a tree, I waited. Before long and to my delight, a male mallard came right to it. But just as he spread his wings for a
landing, my dog Sparky raised his head for a looksee. I grabbed him by the ear to pull him down and he let out a painful yelp! That beautiful drake took off like a bat out of hell and my trophy vanished. A disappointed young fellow I was then. Once my buddy Bud and I were out walking down some railroad tracks when we met his cousin coming from the opposite direction. “How’d you make out?” we asked. “I got 10,” he replied. (In those days the limit was 10). Another time after a successful deer hunt, we young guys full of pride, paraded our bag around town draped over our two cars. The guy in front slammed on his brakes suddenly and we banged into him.
The antlers of our buck hooked into his bumper good. The wellembraced dead buck locked forever in a raging rut with a coupe. Much to our embarrassment, we had to borrow a hacksaw to get him loose and carry on. My final hunt proved to be a great success. I was on a run while a couple of the boys dogged through the bush to chase out deer. A bear came out first and stopped to sniff the air. I had him in my sights, but a debate raged on in my head whether I should shoot him or not. Some part of me resisted, but then it came to mind that hey, I was a hunter here and this was fair game. So I dropped him with a shot right between the eyes.
About 15 minutes later a beautiful big buck with a great rack came bouncing along right in front of me, the gift of a perfect shot and I dropped him too, about 10 feet from the bear. As I stood looking over these two magnificent animals I was, to my surprise, overwhelmed with grief. What had I done? Well that was my last hunt, I put my guns away and never went back to it. We take life for what reason? In my case, brought up in an environment that lead to much bravado on killing creatures for food or sport, it all made sense at the time. It doesn’t now.

Help the hospital, get a flu shot I got my influenza shot this week, paid for out of pocket since I don’t qualify for any of the higher-risk groups provided with free immunization. A reminder to take this simple health precaution came in October when a labour arbitrator ruled that it is a reasonable employment requirement for health care workers to either get the current immunization or mask up in patient care areas. Quiet advocacy by Provincial Health Officer Dr. Perry Kendall has paid off. Staff, doctors, outside contractors and visitors will have to put patients first. Health care unions pressed a grievance on behalf of members who insist they have a right to refuse immunization and increase exposure to patients. They have apparently run up the white flag. “We will be telling our members to comply with the new policy, or risk being fired,” said an overly dramatic Val Avery, president of the Health Sciences Association. HSA lawyers led the grievance, supported by the Hospital Employees’ Union and the B.C. Nurses’ Union. Avery said the union will continue to urge its members to take advantage of on-site flu shot clinics. That’s right, like most provincial employees, they all get immunization that is not only free but administered at work. Kendall announced the regulation last year, after finding that 40 per cent of employees in

long-term care were not getting the current influenza vaccine, and the rate of immunization was declining. Their objections make no sense. Aside from the self-serving “rights” argument, they complain that the annual flu vaccine isn’t effective enough. The formula is developed by international effort to track the dominant strains that emerge as winter rolls around the world. Kendall says a poor match results in about 40 per cent immunity, and a good match reaches 90 per cent. At the risk of stating the obvious, he notes that even 40 per cent is better than nothing. After two weeks of expert testimony, arbitrator Robert Diebolt, a retired UBC law professor, wrote as follows: “It is indisputable that influenza can be a serious, even fatal, disease. Immunization also indisputably provides a measure of protection to health care workers and I have found that their immunization reduces in-
fluenza transmission to patients. “I have also concluded that there is a real and serious patient safety issue and the policy is a helpful program to reduce patient risk.” The B.C. Centre for Disease Control calculates that if all health care workers would get immunized, the risk to patients would be reduced nearly 50 per cent. The Ministry of Health warns: “you can spread influenza for 24 hours before you have any symptoms.” What would cause educated health care workers to defy common sense? A hint is pro-
vided by professional union promoter and publicist Bill Tieleman, who railed about the decision on his blog. This regulation is inspired by big bad U.S. health care corporations that would rather impose immunization than pay for sick days, Tieleman asserts. Ah, so an infected health care employee should wander the wards until symptoms emerge, and then go home for a few days of paid rest. What a perfectly stupid idea! Last week BCNU president Debra McPherson was warning about “chaos” at the new Sur-
rey Memorial emergency ward, her latest of a career of media protests. The big new facility is already overflowing, and more beds and more staff are needed, stat! Perhaps if better preventive measures were taken by nurses, doctors and other staff, this chronic “chaos” would be reduced and these unions would have more credibility.

Take time to remember and give thanks this Nov. 11 The poem In Flanders Fields brought the poppy into the forefront of Remembrance Day. The poem by John McCrae is widely associated with services across Canada, to remember those who gave their lives and served in the Canadian armed services. I think the second verse of the famous poem says it all for me. “We are the Dead. Short Days ago, we lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow. Loved and were loved, and now we lie in Flanders fields.” There are so many Canadians lying in Flanders fields and in graveyards around the world, because they wanted our country to be free, so we didn’t have to experience the devastation that war inflicts in our land. Fortunately many more of these brave men and women re-

turned from these horrible conflicts, like my grandfather, my dad and uncles who fought in Germany, Holland and Italy. That made a huge impression on my life, to hear those stories first hand, from those who had been on the front lines. Wayne
Reeves was sharing stories about his father, Thomas Reeves who was awarded one the highest honours bestowed on members of the Second World War Air Force. He received the Distinguished Flying Cross when he was flying Lancaster bombers out of England. What an honour, although I suspect all those who served were very special and although we can’t give them all medals and crosses, we can give them our thanks for being so brave. Sadly, today, we do not have the opportunity to talk to many of those veterans, to say thanks, because most have passed on to brighter poppy fields. Thankfully through organizations like the Royal Canadian Legion and veterans groups around the world where Remembrance
Day is observed, the tradition of saluting all of those who have passed on and who served us so faithfully continues. Throughout our history Canada has always been a defender of our founding values — freedom, democracy, human rights and rule of the law. Our brave men and women of the Canadian forces continue to serve our country on peacekeeping missions in places like Afghanistan and the Poppy Campaign helps those veterans. On the 11th hour of the 11th month, on the 11th day we will remember them. Take some time on Monday to attend the Royal Canadian Legion Services at 10 a.m. in the Gibraltar Room, then to the Cenotaph for laying of the wreathes
and the Legion will hold fellowship at Branch 139 following the service at City Hall. Sent to me by a friend ...

Bomb crew survives against all odds Continued From Page A1 When Burgess returned to the Swinderby base at 12:30 a.m, an air marshal was waiting to give him the medal right then and there. Originally from Drumheller, Alta., Burgess was working at the Copper Mountain Mine near Princeton when he decided to enlist. “It looked like we were going to lose Britain, so in the early part of 1942 I joined the air force,” he said. He was 22 years old at the time. Up to that point he hadn’t flown an aircraft so he embarked on a year of flight training, eventually soloing in a Tiger Moth. “Tiger Moths and Lancasters were my favourite to fly,” he smiled. Once the training was completed in early 1943, he was assigned to the 61 Squadron and began a sevenmonth-tour of bombing operations in a number of little places, mostly in the middle of England. “I was fortunate to
Frank Burgess, circa 1944 come through OK,” Burgess said. “No one had ever finished a tour there on that 61 Squadron. They just kept on going missing.” Turning to an entry in the log book for March 22, 1944, Burgess described an attack by a Messerschmitt 109 right over the target at Frankfurt. “This guy was so intent on shooting us out and kept getting closer and closer,” Burgess recalled. “He let his cannon go and it went right over my head, maybe a foot over the top of the plane.” Because the other plane was so close, Burgess’s gunner was able to shoot and the enemy plane exploded. A Lancaster crew consisted of a pilot, wireless operator, navi-
gator, rear gunner, mid gunner, flight engineer and bomb aimer. The bomb aimer was the only other Canadian on the crew, Burgess said. “We called him Junior Steadman. They called me Skipper.” A typical operation day began at 4:45 p.m. because by the time the plane had climbed to 22,000 feet and was flying over enemy territory it was dark, he explained. When they opened the door to let off a bomb, a camera on the plane would take a photograph. One day a British newspaper ran a photograph taken by Burgess under the headline: “Lancasters over Berlin.” Cameras had been installed in planes because early in the war, some of planes were dropping bombs in the sea because crews didn’t want to bomb German people. “Of course none of us liked to bomb and kill people, but the war had to be won,” Burgess said. “When they opened the bomb bay, the camera took the time and everything
so they could estimate where we were.” During one flight in March, 1944, when they hit the coast of Europe, his bomb aimer was laying on his stomach in the front of the aircraft ahead of Burgess. “He could see below and he said to me, ‘Skipper, we’re way off course,’” Burgess recalled. “He said he could tell by the coast line because it’s just like a white line, even in a dark night, it’s the sea breaking on the shore. He said we were about 30 degrees off course.” Burgess altered course about 35 degrees to aim for Nuremburg. “Many of the crews that didn’t notice that just kept going, and once they realized and had to turn around, they ran out of petrol on the way home to England.” The enemy estimated 92 losses that day, but it was actually 103 counting the ones the Germans didn’t know about that never got back and were lost to the sea, Burgess said, shaking his head. In the end, his crew

survived and after the war got together for three reunions. The first was in England at the Flying Horse Hotel where they often stayed during the war. The second was in Spain where the Canadian bomb aimer moved to after the war, and the third reunion was back in England. “The last reunion was 35 years or so ago,” Burgess said. Eventually the crew members lost track of each other, although Burgess and his wife Norma still correspond with the wife of the rear gunner. “I was best man at their wedding during the war,” Burgess said. “I think I am the only one of us alive now though.” His crew was lucky, he said. “The losses were so heavy.” Burgess met his wife Norma at Copper Mountain where he returned to work after the war. They were married in 1950 and after living in a few communities arrived in Williams Lake in 1953, where they’ve been ever since.

Boats, trains and hard wood floors Gaeil Farrar Staff Writer Many military people serving in the Second World War never saw any fighting. But behind the front lines there were thousands of people supporting the war effort in many different ways. Marion Corless served as an occupational therapist in the Canadian Army in Canada and England. She graduated from the University of Toronto in 1943, where training included summer internships at a psychiatric hospital in Kingston, the Sick Children’s Hospital in Toronto and with Worker’s Compensation in Toronto. “It was really hard to find a position after you graduated so I continued on at Workman’s compensation in a non-paid role,” Corless says. One day she saw an Army recruiting sign and decided to join up. “My parents asked ‘what did you do today dear,’ and I said I went and joined the Army. They were a bit shocked.” Medical staff were recruited as officers and had to buy their own uniforms. Her uniforms included a blue surge suit for travel; a blue two-piece work uniform with

She and her mother made her head veils. “The Army always sent you as far away as possible so they sent me to Nanaimo for basic training,” Corless said. After six weeks of basic training she was sent to the Harrison Hot Springs Hotel that was in use as a rehabilitation hospital. “I was there until three weeks after DDay, June 6, 1944,” Corless said. “Then they gave us three weeks leave.” While on leave in Toronto Corless was assigned to the General Hospital 24 Canadian Army Overseas unit. This was a complete mobile hospital unit with dozens of doctors, nurses, occupational and physiotherapists, cooks, and other hospital staff. The unit boarded the train for Debert, Nova Scotia where they practiced on parade, had more immunization shots and
waited for their boat to Europe. Anyone heading overseas left from and returned to Halifax at Pier 21, Coreless said. “There is quite a museum there now where people can look up anyone who travelled from that port.” Her hospital unit travelled to England on the Nieuw Amsterdam, a Dutch cruise ship recruited into military service. She says many ships carrying military people were escorted by war ships but they were unescorted. The crossing took six days of zig/zagging across the Atlantic. They changed course every three to four minutes to avoid possible submarine fire. Three minutes was about the time it would take for a torpedo to reach a target once it had been fired. On the ship 12 recruits slept on bunkbeds crowded into a stateroom built for two. She said they had to do a lot of organiz-
ing to figure out who went where when. There were so many recruits that there had to be three sittings for every meal. Fortunately she says she and a few female friends met some handsome men who liked to play bridge. They were on separate meal schedules so one group would save the table for the other and they would play bridge inbetween. “That was really fun,” Corless said. She wished she had kept a diary but that was forbidden because of the risk of secret information getting into enemy hands if they were captured. The ship landed in Greenrock, Scotland where they boarded a train for the Scotch Corner Hotel in Yorkshire, England. Only tables and chairs were left in the hotel so everyone slept in their sleeping bags on the floor, comforted by a blow-up pillow. The first night a mouse ate the half

Chocolate bars were too precious.” They slept on the floor at the hotel for three weeks waiting for their transfer to the military hospital in Smallfield, Surrey to replace the hospital unit that was being moved to France. In making the transfer to Smallfield, Corless said they ended up living on a train for three weeks because the tracks had been removed to replace tracks in London that had been destroyed in a bombing raid. “Luckily I had a table with three other nurses so we could sleep sitting up with our heads on our blow-up pillows,” Corless says. When they got to Victoria Station, she says glass was falling all around them from a nearby bombing raid. After more train rides they were taken the final few miles to the hospital in Army trucks.

REMEMBRANCE DAY
Helping amputees relearn skills Gaeil Farrar Staff Writer A hospital in England built by the Red Cross, was home for Marion Corless for several years during the Second World War. She says the 1,200 bed hospital at Smallfield was built with many free-standing brick buildings, housing about 40 patients each, that were connected by covered walkways. That way if one building was bombed in a raid others would continue to be operational. “It had central heating which was quite wonderful and not common then,” Corless said. And after weeks of sleeping on trains and on hard floors, she finally had a small room and bed to herself in one o the hospital staff wings. She worked in a special building with three other occupational therapists who helped wounded recruits relearn everyday skills after losing limbs or other bodily functions. Secrecy at the hospital was paramount. “I wrote my parents all the time but we weren’t able to say where we were or what we were doing,” Corless said. “Our letters were censored.” In the early days, before the wounded recruits arrived, Corless said she would read tea cups for people to keep them entertained, making things up as she went. One day she saw what looked like a map of Italy in one of the matron’s tea-cups and told her that she would be going to Italy. “Within half an hour

she got notice that she would be going to Italy the next day,” Corless said. “That’s how fast you had to be prepared to go.” Corless said that tealeaf reading spooked her so much that she didn’t read tea leaves again, but it wouldn’t be long before all her time was taken up with work. At one point she says there were 50 ambulances lined up with patients for the hospital. “It was just horrendous,” Corless said. “We were told that we might have to get out of our beds to accommodate them all.” That didn’t happen,

but treating and helping the recruits to recover was a huge job for everyone in the hospital, she said. “It was almost like a small village in itself.” She said a mother cat had her kittens in one of the wards, so she would take a basket of kittens with her on her rounds letting the most seriously wounded hold and cuddle them. “It would encourage their spirits,” Corless said. “My aim in visiting the wards was to see who might benefit from occupational therapy.” Some of her patients were in hospital for two years working to recover from and learn
how to live with their injuries. The physiotherapists worked to help people recover physically. The occupational therapists worked to help wounded recruits re-learn new ways to cope with everyday tasks after losing a limb or enduring other serious injury. “Even losing a finger can make a tremendous difference in a person’s life,” Marion said. Those who lost limbs had to learn new ways to dress themselves, use eating utensils, hold a glass, manage on crutches and if they were able, relearn skills for work. Soldiers who lost limbs were not fitted with artificial limbs until they returned to Canada and equipment was scarce. She said they had to do a lot of improvising to help people learn new ways of doing things. She said one of the hospital staff had some flower seeds which they planted in summer so they could encouraged patients who were able to help in the garden as part of their therapy. In another instance she had a machine made that patients could use to learn skills for cutting wood. Corless met her future husband, John Corless, on one of the wards. He was on crutches recovering from three surgeries after being shot. Later he served as an Army trainer. They were married in England on a leave. Returning to Canada they raised their family Prince George and retired to Williams Lake. John passed away two years ago.

Restoring the faith
ARE YOUR EARS RINGING? THERE IS HELP.
Tinnitus Masker Guide Lila Gunn, Bishop David Monroe, band councillor Rick Gilbert, band councillor Joanne Moiese, and Anne Gilbert prepare for the unveiling of the newly restored 118-year-old Catholic Church at Sugar Cane recently. Angie Mindus Staff Writer It was a community effort that built the Catholic church at Sugar Cane more than 100 years ago and it’s with that same spirit that it has been restored to its former glory. “It’s something else to see, it’s just beautiful,” said Williams Lake Indian Band Councillor Joanne Moiese, who was moved to tears when she stepped into the newly renovated church last month. “To have it come back to the community is amazing.” Current Councillor Rick Gilbert and his wife Anna were the catalysts behind the renovation. They said they saw a need to restore the building and the Catholic faith for the community. “It was abandoned – it just broke our hearts,” said Anna Gilbert, who worked hard scraping away the old paint and tearing down walls to reveal the original church design. “Now you can see what a treasure it is,” she said. Rick said he led a restoration of the church 30 years ago when he was chief, and saw the need again now. “I saw the church in a sad state and thought I needed to do something about it.”
The church now has power and heat, and a newly covered, sound-proof confessional to name just a few of the improvements. The Gilberts even went so far as to find a mid-1800s Tabernacle light on E-Bay from the Netherlands for the restoration. The original had gone missing, and held many memories for parishioners, many of whom they hope will now come back to the church. “I can just picture it (full of people) and hope it comes back again – keep it in your prayers we have a revival.” Chief Ann Louie said she’s also excited about the restoration and is thankful to all the businesses who
helped make the project possible. “Without them it wouldn’t have happened.” One of the more obvious donations is a beautiful outdoor gazebo with indoor washroom facilities located close to the church, which never before had a washroom. Pioneer Log Homes of B.C. Bryan Reid Sr. and staff were onsite putting the finishing touches on the gazebo, including erecting a silver cross on top of a redroofed log to match the church, with a time capsule inside. Reid said his mother Anna Crucil, for which the gazebo is named, and her five children sought support from the church
when she first arrived in Williams Lake in 1962 with four sons and a daughter. “The church gave us shelter,” Reid said of why his company embraced the project. “Williams Lake has been very, very good to us. We’re happy to do this, it is an honour.” Catholic Bishop David Monroe and Father Derrick Cameron were also on hand for the reveal and said they were pleased the restoration was a community effort, much like the church’s beginnings. “We got the physical church, now we need to build on the People of God, which is the (real) church – a revival of the faith,” said Father Derrick.

Share a hero sandwich in honour of our veterans Nov. 11 When Ernie Engemoen was editor at the Advisor newspaper, he suggest one year that I do a cooking column and feature a ‘Hero Sandwich’ in respect of all the veterans who served our country in World War and peace time conflicts around the globe. We should always be grateful for those who, at very young ages, decided to get on board to protect our country for freedom and democracy. These people who died and served deserve to be recognized and they are all heroes to me. Take some time to remember our veterans this Monday on the 11th day of the 11th month and on the 11th hour. We will remember our war heroes and those who continue to serve, to keep our country free. Ernie sent me a recipe for a hero sandwich and I have since misplaced it but, for-

Horse-hair decoration fits potter’s lifestyle Gaeil Farrar Staff Writer Lesley Lloyd has been potting in the lakecity for many years now and her enthusiasm for the craft never seems to flag. While raising her family and working at various other jobs, she has always found time for pottery. You will find her teaching classes for children, mentoring adults, and experimenting with glazes and styles. She has made many traditional plates, cups and bowls, but these days she is leaving the traditional behind to explore the more artistic side of the craft, in particular the art of low-fired, decorative raku. She has developed a reputation for her work with one particular type of raku decorated with horse hair and subtle images of galloping horses. She loves to ride horses and owns a couple, so this line of decoration seems a natural fit. For many years she has kept mum on how she managed to achieve the horse images. Now she explains a simple resist method, of laying a metal or clay cut-out over the piece while it is still hot from the kiln and spraying the piece with ferric chloride. Horse hairs are also creatively thrown on the piece while it is still hot. This is a very simple explanation for what is really a tricky process in low-fired decorative pottery. Lloyd’s show in the main gallery of the Sta-

ist’s statement. “And when one considers how human beings have expanded their art and the forms they use to express themselves since those first primitives, it is quite amazing. “I have attempted to explore various forms and techniques, in clay, that man has developed starting with horse hair pieces, on
to high fire porcelain that the Chinese developed, which is often considered the zenith of ceramics in the art world.” Beside each of her own creations or groups of creations in this show the viewer will find pieces of pottery in her collection by other artists that inspired her, plus a book on the Chauvet Caves. “Extensive travel has allowed me to soak up the historical aspects of pottery from museums, galleries and artisans around the world,” Lloyd says. “Visiting present day potters on Crete, I have come to understand more fully the influence of ageless forms and decoration. And today you can see potters like Sven Bayer in Great Britain also making large pots just like they have been making on Crete for a thousand years.” Born in the Okanagan, Lloyd has lived in the Cariboo since 1956, with the exception of her university years and two years living in Tasmania, Australia with her husband Bill. Encouraged by a neighbour in Australia she started making pots and after returning to Canada in 1973 she joined the Cariboo Potters Guild and has been an active member ever since. Lloyd has travelled extensively over the years, both on her own and with her husband, Bill, and their family. She has made numerous trips to Mexico, as well as two trips to Greece (now her favourite destination), Great Britain, main-
land Europe, Costa Rica, and a return trip to Australia. She has biked around Germany and just this year she and Bill biked through Italy, Slovenia and into Croatia.

Interior Health awards planning contract for hospital redevelopment A proponent has been chosen to participate in the next stage of the redevelopment planning for Cariboo Memorial Hospital (CMH). According to Interior Health, five consulting companies responded to the CMH Redevelopment Request for Proposal (RFP), which closed Oct. 9, to develop a Concept Plan for CMH redevelopment
priorities, including a new inpatient unit. Following evaluation of the responses, the successful proponent was CEI Architecture. “By moving forward with this next step we are getting closer to future expansion at Cariboo Memorial, as proposed in the Master Site Plan,” said Interior Health Board Chair Norman Em-
bree. “Interior Health believes the future redevelopment of the hospital is important, because of the role it plays in the provision of acute health care services for Cariboo Chilcotin residents.” The Concept Plan will provide a summary of the capital and operational requirements specific to the scope of the project, which envi-

sions construction of a new inpatient unit at CMH, along with renovations to the ambulatory care, emergency, and pharmacy areas. The consultant’s work will include preliminary drawings and space requirements, taking into account the needs of programs within the hospital. This is one of several steps involved in
the necessary planning for future expansion. It is estimated the cost of the planning will total approximately $600,000, to be cost shared 60/40 per cent between Interior Health and the Cariboo Chilcotin Regional Hospital District (CCRHD). “I am confident the redevelopment of the Cariboo Memorial Hospital will greatly
improve the availability and array of services offered to patients,” said CCRHD Chair John Massier. “This project will ensure residents will have access to the best possible care in a beautifully updated facility with the latest in technology.” It is anticipated that CEI Architecture will complete work on the plan by spring 2014.
The CMH Master Site Plan, which was funded exclusively by the CCRHD, was completed in February 2011 and identified redevelopment of the inpatient unit as a key priority, along with Emergency Department, Ambulatory Care, and Pharmacy renovations. Upgrades for the CMH have been in the works for years.

“Don’t tell me you love me” That’s what I sent back in a text message to my cell phone carrier. Every time I deal with one of their customer service reps I get a patronizing followup text saying, “We’d love to get your feedback.” None of said feedback seems to be making any difference, though, as the things that bugged me about the service a year ago are still the same things that bug me today. Nonetheless, I always get the same words of response: “Sweet! Cool! You’re awesome! Lots of love!” Really?? I’m starting to wonder if the text messages have been pre-programmed and maybe there really isn’t some witty person who thinks I’m awesome writing personal texts to me from somewhere back in that corporate office. I keep reading about the fact that up-and-coming generations have highly-tuned BS meters and can spot insincerity in a heartbeat. Well, I’m over 40 and I can smell this “lots of love” message for what it is from a block away. It’s a ploy, a veiled attempt to manipulate my emotive side to overcome the rational conclusion that my cell phone carrier isn’t doing a very good job, but they want to hang on to me as a customer. Don’t tell me you love me when you really just want me as a customer. That’s not love. You might think that I’ve boxed myself into a corner with that observation. Isn’t that what Christianity does? Tell people God loves them so you can keep them as “customers”? I don’t think so. Here’s the thing. I have done all the doubting anyone else has done about God and the Christian faith, but my
PARSONS PEN
BY Chris harder doubts get stopped dead by this one thing: God doesn’t need me... Why? Because he’s totally self-sufficient. In fact, it’s really silly to talk about God having needs at all. If God had needs that he depended on me to meet, even just a tiny bit, he wouldn’t be a god worth having (small “g” intended). God, as the bible describes him, has existed in perfection for eternity, enjoying the unspoiled community of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. No unmet needs, no loneliness, no problem. So why even make the human race? Have you ever thought about it? Why would a God who needed nothing bother to make you? The only satisfying answer I’ve heard is a single word: LOVE. God made you to love you.
The bible says, “Even before he made the world, God loved us and chose us in Christ to be holy and without fault in his eyes. God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ.” We are not customers. God had nothing to gain by making us except the pleasure of demonstrating his perfect love. And that’s why I love him. One of the apostles put it so well,“We love because he first loved us.” I’m a skeptic at heart, but I can trust myself to a God (big “G” intended) who loved me before he had to, when he had nothing to gain by doing so. Not only did he love me first, he loved me despite. Honestly, don’t most of us harbor a certain level of anxiety that if people knew us, REALLY knew us, they would walk away? God didn’t walk away. He walked toward. The story of Jesus is this: “God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners.” How do you get in on all that love? God’s word tells us that “to all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God.” Trust Jesus, welcome him into your life, and you will begin a relationship with God that starts right now and lasts for eternity. I’ll probably walk away from my cell phone plan when my contract is up and I spot a better deal. I’ll never walk away from God. It’s not that he needs me as a customer, and that’s exactly why I can believe that he really, genuinely loves me. He loves you too. Be blessed.

Hospital Christmas Gala needs auction items The annual Christmas Gala for Cariboo Memorial Hospital is sold out but help is still needed in the form of donations for the live and silent auctions. All 240 tickets to the $95 a plate formal gala were sold about two weeks ago, but there is a waiting list in case someone is unable to attend and needs to re-sell their ticket, says Rick Nelson, a director with the Cariboo Foundation Hospital Trust. “This is the earliest it’s ever happened and it’s getting earlier every year,” Nelson says of the gala’s growing popularity. The Christmas Gala
and related fundraising are part of an ongoing effort by the hospital trust to raise enough money to purchase a new digital mammography unit for the hospital. The trust volunteers are about halfway through raising the 60 per cent local share (approximately $700,000) the community needs to raise in order to purchase the $1.2 million piece of equipment. Nelson says the goal this year is to raise $50,000 after expenses on the gala, auction and raffles associated with the event. Some of the bigger items in the live auction in-
clude a dream vacation package at a sheep farm in New Zealand; a fly fishing adventure for four at the Northern Lights Lodge in Likely, and a weekend on Plato Island at Quesnel Lake. Nelson says it would be nice if someone could donate some airmiles they aren’t using to go with the New Zealand stay. Two local jewellers have been long-time supporters of the gala. Excelsior Jewellers has donated another beautiful necklace as a raffle item during the gala. Woodland Jewellers is currently selling raffle tickets on a one-of-
a-kind diamond ring designed and made by the company’s jeweller Geoff Bourdon and valued at almost $10,000. Nelson says 99 per cent of the funds the hospital trust raises goes directly to the hospital. “We are trying to
50
provide good, modern health care in the Cariboo and cut down on people’s need to travel for treatment, especially for older people.” People who have items to donate for the auction are asked to drop them off with Carol Taphorn or Joy Hennig at Remax.

Saturday, Nov. 9
Randhawa joins UBC Thunderbirds Greg Sabatino Staff Writer The University of British Columbia Thunderbirds men’s basketball team now has a Cougar among its ranks. Williams Lake’s Harpreet Randhawa, 21, a Columneetza secondary graduate and standout player for the Cougars throughout his high school career, was recently named to the UBC Thunderbirds men’s basketball team roster. The six-foot-eight forward played his last two seasons as a member of the Douglas College Royals, following a one-year stint with the Kwantlen Eagles — both members of the Pacific Western Athletic Association (PACWEST). Making the step up to Canada West play with the T-Birds will be a challenge, Randhawa admits, but a test he’s looking forward to. In September Randhawa said he didn’t even know he had a roster spot, and had
I’d like to prove myself and show that I fit in.” - Hapreet Randhawa joined the team as a practice player. “They were short some players and some players left last minute, and I knew one of the assistant coaches, Jamie Oei, and he knew I was interested before the summer, so I had just been playing with them and practicing with them,” Randhawa explained. “But in the summer I came back home [to Williams Lake] to work, and just recently Jamie texted me and asked if I was still interested in being a practice player.” One thing led to another and, based off his work ethic and skill set, he was awarded a roster spot on the team. “It’s been a huge step in terms of physicality and how much you need to
know,” he said. “They expect you to be a smarter player now. In college and high school I mostly depended on my athleticism but at this stage everybody’s big, everybody’s fast and everybody’s strong. You’ve got to reinvent your game.” Randhawa, despite his height, has always been comfortable playing around the perimeter — handling the ball and shooting from the outside. Now, however, he’s having to change his game slightly to accommodate more of a secondary role. “I’ve always been a perimeter player and now I’ve got to play the post more,” he said. “All my touches now are on the block. “It’s the first year I’ve had to take on a secondary
role so it’s a bit different for me. In high school and even college I was always the go-to guy and now I’m playing more defense, more of a team game. I’m a guy who’s fighting for minutes now so it’s all hard work from here.” The Thunderbirds, last year’s Canada West men’s basketball champions and members of Canadian Interuniversity Sport, have just two players remaining from its 2011/12 squad. Most noticeably absent is Doug Plumb, a secondteam All-Canadian who is now playing professionally in Hungary. “Moving him was a big piece,” he said. “There are a lot of newer guys this year so it’s going to be a change.” Randhawa, who is study-
ing kinesiology, made his debut for the T-Birds in their season opener last Friday against the Regina Cougars in a 78-72 loss. But, it was a game he said helped prove he could be a factor in the league. In just 17 minutes of play time Randhawa hauled down a team-high 11 rebounds, dropped seven points, collected three steals and had two assists. The following night against the Brandon Bobcats Randhawa and the Thunderbirds picked up their first win in a 76-74 decision. “Before I didn’t know if I’d be able to play in this league or not but it was definitely a confidence thing knowing I can do certain things out there,” he said. “I’d like to prove myself and show that I fit in.” Randhawa and the TBirds will play their home opener tonight, Nov. 8, against the Trinity Western Spartans at the War Memorial Gym in Vancouver.

Blue Fins swim for cancer awareness This past Saturday Williams Lake Blue Fins swimmers wore pink swim caps and wore moustaches to bring awareness of October and November being cancer awareness months. Most of the competitive team and adult masters swim program arrived Saturday to swim
relay events in what was a fun and enjoyable day. “The swimmers made moustaches to mark the beginning of Movember and will continue to wear pink caps and moustache caps for the month of November to continue with their support,” said Blue Fins head coach Chad Webb. During the event
Webb discussed how cancer has likely affected all the swimmers in some way, noting most people know someone who has fought the disease. He talked about former Blue Fins swimmer Johnny Wilford and his struggle with the disease when he was a young teen.

REALTOR TIPS THE BENEFITS OF OWNING YOUR HOME VS RENTING How does renting compare to purchasing? • Renting does not build equity. • Finding rental property can be difficult in the availability of quality homes good neighborhoods. • To rent a home the tenant needs ½ month plus full month rent up front – sometimes utilities are included in the payment. • Often the cost of renting is more than the cost of a mortgage payment! • To purchase a home most mortgage lenders require a minimum down payment of 5% of the purchase price. • Property owners of homes located in strata communities and in mobile home trailer parks pay monthly strata or park fees as well as their mortgage payment. • When purchasing, location is important for your property to grow as an investment. • Style of home can affect price and long term value • Unusual house styles attract fewer buyers – and may be harder to get financing! • The most popular house style is the Rancher/ bungalow three bedrooms on the main floor, full basement and garage.

WolfPack eliminated at CCAA nationals The winning streak is over for the Thompson Rivers University WolfPack women’s soccer team and 150 Mile House sweeper Laura Smylie. Unfortunately, the first defeat of 2013 for the WolfPack came in the opening match of the Canadian Collegiate Athletic Association Soccer Nationals. Playing in Surrey on Wednesday, Nov. 6, the WolfPack fell to the NAIT Ooks of the Alberta College Athletic Conference. The score was 1-0. It was the second straight year that the teams had met at nationals. In 2012, NAIT downed TRU 1-0 in a windswept match in Prince Edward Island to claim bronze. The Pack was hoping for a different fate on this day. “We worked on our defending today, that’s for sure. They’re a good team and we had to defend a few of their players very tightly,” said Ooks coach Carole Holt. The Ooks opened the scoring in the first minute on a goal by forward Lindsay Vicente. The Edmonton club came close to making it 2-0 in the 15th minute when Leanne Kadatz put on a dribbling clinic from 25 yards out and drilled a shot at WolfPack fourthyear goalkeeper Emily Edmundson, who juggled the ball on the goal line. While both teams exchanged chances in the first half, the score remained 1-0 going into the second. With its season on the line, TRU turned on its jets after the 45th minute and controlled most of the play but couldn’t find the equalizer. “We played poorly for 30 seconds and well for 89 minutes and 30 seconds, but we didn’t score, we didn’t finish, unfortunately,” said a disappointed WolfPack coach Tom McManus, the PACWEST Coach of the Year.

Laura Smylie receives the PACWEST Playoff MVP award from TRU WolfPack head coach Tom McManus. The WolfPack’s Alanna Bekkering led most of the charge with several chances off the left side, particularly a glorious scoring opportunity in the 66th minute when a scramble ensued just feet from the goal line. Ooks goalkeeper Michele Greer cleared the ball from harm’s way and made a number of saves on the way to victory. “Their goalkeeper played really well. She should have been the Player of the Game,” McManus said, who criticized his own game plan for attacking too much from the left. As the game drew to an end, time was not the WolfPack’s friend and NAIT was able to kill the clock. “The last few minutes we had the ball down in their end and that was
pretty much all the possession we had that half,” Holt said. The WolfPack tried to battle back in the second half especially, but couldn’t get any sustained offense going. Third-year forward Katie Sparrow was named the player of the match. Smylie, meanwhile, was recently named the PACWEST Women’s Soccer Athlete of the Week and Playoff MVP after a solid performance that helped lead the WolfPack to its third straight PACWEST title in October. With the defeat, the WolfPack drop to the consolation side of the draw and were scheduled to take on either the host, Kwantlen, or F.X. Garneau of the RESQ on Thursday.

We should eat more alkaline food. We all know that swimming pools can only work if they are acidic/alkaline neutral. This is still more critical for our body. Basic information to have an alkaline body: USDA now recommended on their website. MY plate.gov 50% should be alkaline food (vegetables, salads, legumes, fruit, berries, mushrooms) 50% can be acidic food (Meat, fish, shellfish, eggs, rice, nuts, cheese. Less or no bread, noodles, cereals, cakes. No sweets, deep frieds.) Most North American diet is 90% acidic food. If you have trouble to achieve at least a 50% in alkaline food and 50% acidic food, consider to take a supplement like Bell Acidic Stomach/Alkaline Balance #39. It’s inexpensive and comes with a #39 guarantee. It helps to have a healthy alkaline balanced body and prevents many discomforts, including indigestion and stomach acid reflux coming up, which a majority of people suffer with. 60 million in North America. We should not ignore that Dr. Otto Warburg M.D. was awarded 2 Nobel Prizes for proving that an alkaline balanced body can absorb up to 20 times more oxygen than an acidic body. Makes our immune system more effective to fight disease-producing bacteria including cancer cells we have in our body every day of our life. < Reflux gave me a sore throat and I could not sing in the church choir anymore.

This three-bedroom family home, designed for a lot that slopes to the back, includes an unfinished basement that could serve as extra room for a growing family, an in-law suite or a mortgage helper. Entry is through a covered porch with double pilasters at one side, together with a veranda that would be perfect for a lounger or a pair of rocking chairs. The foyer includes a coat closet and a half wall to the right that allows a view into the great room, which enjoys a view to the front veranda and garden. A gas fireplace will cast its warmth as far as the dining room, and will make this area especially delightful during the cooler months. The dining area features a window to the side of the home, and is separated from the kitchen only by a prep island. The L-shaped counter configuration will save steps for the cook, who will also benefit from a double-doored pantry and a handy phone desk. A doorway to the sundeck that looks over the back garden will make serving outdoor meals a breeze. In the sleeping area, the master bedroom includes a spacious closet, as well as an extra-wide window sill that could do double duty as a window seat. There is a three-piece en-suite. In the corridor is a linen closet and a triangular display shelf for collectibles. This home measures 40 feet wide and 50 feet, six inches deep, for a total of 1,308 square feet, not including the unfinished basement included with the plans.
