Testimony continues in RCMP firearms trial
T R E VO R C R AWL EY
Testimony in the case of an RCMP firearms trial continued on Wednesday, as witnesses, a paramedic and investigator took the stand. The case is being tried in Cranbrook Su-
preme Court in front of Justice Trevor Armstrong. RCMP officer Richard Drought is currently on trial for a charge of careless use or storage of a firearm stemming from a police incident in Octo-
ber 2012 in Cranbrook. Crown counsel alleges Drought fired his service pistol into an SUV which was being driven by Nickolas Bullock, who stole the vehicle near Yahk in a violent carjacking on Oct. 2,
2012. Drought began a police pursuit of the stolen SUV on Highway 3/95 near Elizabeth Lake and ended up on a rural acreage at the top of Victoria Ave. near the College of the Rockies Gold
Creek campus, where the incident occurred. A witness, who was inside his home, testified that he saw a police car stopped on the edge of a rural property near the COTR Gold Creek campus around 10 p.m.
The witness also said he saw an SUV turn and drive towards the direction of the police car, before hearing three to five loud bangs indicative of gunfire. He did not see the shooter or any muzzle flashes from the gun.
Directly after hearing the gunshots, the witness said he saw a male, who appeared to be a police officer, walk past the police car in the direction of the SUV, which by then was out of sight.

Idlewild levels concerns raised in Cranbrook council ARNE PETRYSHEN
Members of the public have been bringing up concerns around the decommissioning of the Idlewild dam and the lowering of the reservoir, given the coming winter and the effect the low water level could have on turtles and fish. Coun. Norma Blissett brought up the subject during the council inquiries portion of Monday’s city council meeting. “Are we going to maintain a certain level of water heading into the winter to prevent it from freezing right to the bottom in order to prevent fish mortality and other organisms?” Blissett asked. “Because I would think there is
a minimum level of water that needs to be maintained so that that doesn’t happen.” Eric Sharpe, director of Engineering & Development Services, said the city is trying to do that. “Some of the factors that influence that are how cold of a year we have, the other is the amount of water that comes down,” Sharpe said. “The level came up quite a bit because the upstream rancher had stopped irrigating, we weren’t sure when he was doing that so all of a sudden he shuts his pumps down and the water levels go up.”

Help is at hand for local business, and in case you weren’t aware of how to access it, the Kimberley Chamber of Commerce and the City of Kimberley are working to bring it to your attention. The second annual Kimberley Business Expo, set for Oct. 15 at the Kimberley Conference Centre, is an initiative of the Kimberley Chamber of
Commerce and the City of Kimberley, and is getting in Kevin Wilson, Economic Development Officer for the City of Kimberley, said the idea for the expo was developed after a survey of local businesses, which found those businesses “seemed to be experiencing challenges accessing available services.

Election 2015 Candidates take debate season back to Cranbrook Arne Petryshen
On Tuesday night, the four candidates for federal election in the Kootenay Columbia riding sat down to take questions from one another as well as this submitted by the audience at the JCI All Candidates Forum. Conservative candidate David Wilks, Liberal candidate Don Johnson, Green Party candidate Bill Green and NDP candidate Wayne Stetski answered questions on the economy, environment, Canada’s role overseas and whether they are a dog or cat person. The answer to the last question is they are all — every single one of them — dog persons. So if you were hoping to vote for the candidate who favours feline companionship, you’re out of luck. The event was at the Key City Theatre. As for the more serious three-quarters of the debate, Wayne Stetski came out swinging against David Wilks, saying he wants to be the region’s strong voice in Ottawa. Stetski noted that in 2012 Wilks made national headlines for saying that one member of parliament will not make a difference in Ot-
tawa. “I disagree with Mr. Wilks and I will make the difference for you in Ottawa,” he said. Much later in the meeting, when asked about voting on conscience and supporting constituents over party whip, Wilks fired back at Stetski. Wilks said as a member of parliament, in a party with party status, when there is a confidence motion on a budget there is no choice.

of omnibus bills. Among other questions that were asked of the candidates was their stances on a national pharmacare plan, food security, balancing the environment and the economy, and Canada’s role in overseas missions. When asked what they thought the biggest issue facing the Kootenay - Columbia riding was the candidates had answers along the same wavelength. For Bill Green it was issue of poverty, especially that of children and seniors. He said the Green party would bring in a liveable wage. Don Johnson agreed on poverty being the biggest issue. He said the Liberal’s planned child benefit will go to those who need it most. David Wilks said it is that seniors housing is lacking and so many seniors are forced to move to unfamiliar towns and have trouble adapting and can become lonely. Wayne Stetski said it was hard to believe there are 500 homeless people in a city like Cranbrook. Stetski said the best thing the government could do was provide more housing.

Sharpe said that is what they are trying to do. “I did have a meeting with the Senior Dam Safety Officer, he did have a look at the site and he was not aware of a lot of the challenges that we have been having as far as the various windows for working, the migratory birds, the Western painted turtles and the native and non-native fish species in the reservoir.” Sharpe said all the various levels of government involved don’t always line up.

Business Expo a regional affair Continued from page 1
“There are a lot of organizations that offer support for businesses, that these businesses didn’t know about,” Wilson said. “This is a one-stop event to find all these organizations that will support start-up or existing businesses,” added Mike Guarnery, Manager of the Kimberley Chamber of Commerce. Twenty services that support small business will be on hand to help make it clear what they have to offer and how they can help. These include lenders, advocates and “small business ninjas.”
The event runs from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m., Thursday, Oct. 15, at the Conference Centre. Admission is free. “Come for a bit, or stay for a while,” Guarnery said. Last year’s Expo created immediate attention and interest, and this year’s edition seems to be gaining momentum. Wilson said 65 participants took in the show last year, this year more than 100 are expected. As well, the Expo is becoming an event with a regional focus. Wilson said The Cranbrook Chamber of Commerce, the City of Cranbrook and the Columbia Valley Chamber of
Commerce are all on board with support. As well as the information displays from the small business ninjas, An economic forecaster from Kootenay Savings Credit Union will be giving a presentation about current trends. There will also be a presentation on Technology and Business — how businesses can use technology to enhance profitability and competitiveness.

economy. Small business can be defined as the backbone of the Canadian economy. More than 1 million registered employer businesses are considered small business (one to 99 employees), making up 98 per cent of employer businesses. They employ more than 7 million Canadians — 69.7 per cent of Canada’s total workforce. According to 2011 statistics (Industry Canada and Statistics Canada), small business contributed 25 per cent of Canada’s export total ($68 billion), and amounted to 28 per cent of Canada’s gross domestic product.

Moving to another area of the house with an open window, the witness also testified that he did not see the male, but heard a strong authoritative voice and mumbling. Also appearing on the witness stand was a paramedic who attended the scene and treated Bullock, who was received two gunshot wounds to the left shoulder and two wounds to the left wrist. Sherman Mah, a member of the Independent Investigations Office (IIO), provided testimony on the collection of evidence upon his arrival to Cranbrook the day after the incident. Mah shadowed a local RCMP member as part of the investigation and took custody of evidence such as the service pistol and 11 expended shell casings that were found at the scene. Testimony will continue on Thursday with the trial predicted to last into late next week.
Cranbrook students clean up Joseph Creek creek. Lots of people walking by stopped to say thanks.” “Cleaning up a short section of the creek near the school is a simple way for students to anchor some of the concepts from the program, from the need for clean water, to the fact that everyone shares a stake in protecting our clean waters,” added Quinn.

Last Friday, 19 Grade 7/8 students from Kootenay Christian Academy worked together to clean up 100 kilos of waste from Joseph Creek. Concentrating their efforts around the perimeter of the Tamarack Mall parking area, they removed candy wrappers, drinks cups, plastic tops, straws and shopping bags, and even some hubcaps. The clean-up was a Student Action Project, an important part of Know Your Watershed, a program of the Columbia Basin Trust, administered and man-
aged by Wildsight. “The Know Your Watershed Program teaches students about local water issues, where their water comes from and where it goes after we flush it or send it
down the drain. The Student Action Project empowers students to tackle a local water issue, in this case removing garbage from Joseph Creek,” said Wildsight educator,

Close encounters in Skunk Nation
In
Toronto they have “Raccoon Nation.” Long may it prosper. In Cranbrook, we have “Skunk Nation.” Although I wouldn’t go so far as to wish it prosperity, I don’t wish it any harm. My most recent encounter with Skunk Nation was Saturday night. I was coming home from Locals Coffeehouse in the dark. I walked up to my back door and tripped over a skunk, accidentally giving it a kick, to boot. For a split second I though it was a cat, until I saw it scuttling away, rear end pointed towards me, tail lifted high in the air. I shrieked in alarm, before I realized I hadn’t been sprayed. That was my first thought. My second thought was to wonder if the skunk would let me pick it up and scratch its ears. Full disclosure: Earlier, I had set a bag of garbage outside the back door, intending to move it out to the alley with its skunkproof containers “in just a few minutes.” But the bag ended up under a bench, and I forgot. The skunk didn’t forget though, and as I came home later that night he or she had ripped open the bag and was feasting on garbage. I believe it heard me coming, as it was sucking the marrow out of chicken bones, and made to flee. But I move pretty fast for a big land animal — the skunk mistimed its flight, and we got tangled up in each other. I nearly fell on it. Now, if the City of Cranbrook ever turns its beady eye on Skunk Nation, there could be penalties for leaving your garbage where skunks can eat it. In advance of this future de-
velopment I say: “I’m sorry, I forgot, I will never do it again.” Nor will I. It was great to have this reminder of the punishment for leaving your garbage out for skunks to eat — getting sprayed by a skunk. But I got to learn my lesson without having to pay that price. Barry And for that I thank Skunk NaCoulter tion. Skunk Nation has a bit of a boomtown thing going on, here in Cranbrook, City of Skunks. You see them all the time, wandering in families in single file, heading up from the creek or down to it, lying crushed on the street by a car, or in the aftermath of a dog encounter. Their presence perfumes the atmosphere of our town, floating around like a permanent fog bank. They seem relaxed and at home amongst the humans — it’s almost like they were competing with the deer for most favoured minority status. My neighbour has had issues with Skunk Nation — malodorous misadventures. He has set traps for them (usually catching neighbourhood cats), and set up devices to warn them off. Earlier in the summer, I watched two skunks fighting in my neighbour’s yard. It was a most curious battle, fought in complete silence, the two rodents wrestling and pushing at each other with their paws, rolling over each other in a ball, fluffy tails whipping around. It was like watching a cartoon. Just on the other side of the hedge, in my yard, Skunk Nation is more benign. They come waddling through in their crepuscular way, shortcutting through the yard on
the way to the alley and all the delicious garbage kept there in skunk-proof containers. My cats watch them drift by, their cat heads slowly turning to follow the skunks’ progress. Other than that, cat and skunk ignore each other completely. I am intrigued by the nature of their relationship with each other, but can’t fathom it in
the slightest. Everyone is commenting on how fortunate I was not to be sprayed (one Facebook comment: “Fortune favours fools and children — what category do you fall under?” Well, the answer to that is obvious!). But I prefer to believe the skunk didn’t spray me because it knows I am kind.
Kootenay-Columbia 2015
L
ast night I had the strangest dream. I dreamt that election day never came, but the campaign ground on and on until the end of time — kind of like we were in Hell. Where the advance of one party over the others by a single percentage point in the polls resulted in headlines along the lines of WAR DECLARED! Or MAN LANDS ON MOON! It has been a long, wearying election, but the final few days are upon us — 12 as of this writing; the period when the knives come out, the final wave of attack ads are launched, and candidates’ knuckles are bloody from knocking on doors and slugging it out (figuratively) with each other. Here in Kootenay-Columbia, it has been as different as can be from the last election in 2011. This election has shown us a raft of debates. In 2011 there was one debate in Cranbrook, poorly attended and late in the game. Last election Mr. Wilks was seldom seen in the public venues. This time around, he’s right in the mix, taking the attacks and dishing them out. The 2011 election was a gentlemanly affair, everyone seemed more polite. This time around there is much
greater element of nastiness and hostility. The 2011 election was, really, a foregone conclusion. This year, it seems anything is possible. There is a lot at stake here in Kootenay-Columbia, for so many, based on so many factors. A lot of talk of voting strategically, vote splitting, the addition of Nelson to the riding, and the polls, the polls, the polls … It’s as tight as tight can be here in Kootenay-Columbia. The poll aggregator website ThreeHundredandEight.com has the NDP’s Wayne Stetski (39.3% of the projected vote) and the Conservatives incumbent David Wilks (37.4%) neck and neck. If these figures are accurate, this would amount to an astonishing drop in the Conservative vote — in 2011, David Wilks got almost 56%. The NDP got 33%. But where the Conservatives have dropped, the Liberals have gained (14%, according to the polls, from 3.5% in 2011), as have the Greens (6% in 2011, 10% this year, according to the polls). The last 12 days of the campaign are going to be interesting in Kootenay-Columbia. Stay tuned for more.

Flowers Galore
Opinion/Events Letters to the Editor
Three cheers to the owners and staff at Flowers Galore who gave away 150 dozen roses on Kimberley’s Friendly Day, Oct. 1 Everyone who was lucky enough to give away a dozen as a reminder of their friendship was rewarded with a great feeling! Everyone who wore the shoes of a recipient, was rewarded by an even greater feeling! It was a great day for all. On behalf of us rewarded people in Kimberley, a sincere thank you to Sue and Paddy. A wonderful way to promote Kimberley’s friendliness. Myra Farquhar Kimberley
David Wilks’ efforts
I am writing this letter on behalf of my father, John Parnell, who served the province of B.C. as an RCMP officer for more than 33 years. During his service he was hit by a car on duty, resulting in injuries that would lead to quadriplegia and ventilator dependence; to our knowledge the only case of a ventilator dependent quadriplegic that the Department of Veterans Affairs has had to help. When we encountered seemingly unsurmountable difficulties accessing special equipment not normally dealt with by DVA, we turned to the Honorable Mr. Wilks. He met personally with with my Dad and our family, did up a presentation for the Honorable Minister for Veterans Affairs Erin O’Toole, and advocated strongly and efficiently for Dad. The result was action within a few days, and Dad is now in the process of getting critically needed support and equipment. Not the first time we have had to ask for his help; he assisted us two years ago when we were trying to help one of our live-in nursing staff get a work permit during the Foreign Service Officers’ strike. Much of what Mr. Wilks does to advocate for veterans is protected by privacy laws, but we wanted to publicly acknowledge his exceptional kindness and common sense, solutions-based approach to this complex issue, and we are forever grateful. Dr. Tracey A. Parnell For John and Roberta Parnell
Help him out
Thursday, October 8, 2015 Page 7
The good news is that, if he does not regain complete control, he will quit. We should help him do that! While dismissing his opponents as “inexperienced” and “not ready,” Mr. Harper points proudly to his government’s performance and invites us to stay the course. But, of course, that performance has been disappointing to say the least … certainly nothing to brag about. And Mr. Harper must be painfully aware of that. Why else would he be so intent on erasing certain records by destroying information, deliberately deleting vital data, closing websites and shutting down scores of research stations, all of which contained heavy ammunition for his critics? It appears that many chunks of history have been removed — expunged! — and that researchers are now facing a blank where vital information once stood. Of all the legislation passed by the Harper Government in the last 10 years, much of it smuggled through under cover of those abominable Omnibus bills, none seemed to be aimed at benefitting the average Canadian. Rather, it seemed intended to increase restrictions on the general
population while relaxing, even removing, restrictions on big business. Unfortunately, Mr. Harper is not happy with Democracy and freedom of speech; he detests the Canadian “welfare” state and derides our system of Governance (but is quick to take advantage of its shortcomings). He resents having to choose his ministers from among the elected MPs, as opposed to the American system which he, apparently, admires. He is quite prepared to defy Parliament and even tangle with the Supreme Court. Altogether, not an ideal fit for the job! Of course, there are many fine and caring members in the present government but it is the Harper Government and Mr. Harper is scary. He has done serious damage to Canada and must not be allowed to do more. Bud Abbott Cranbrook
25,000 jobs
The Conservative Government has negotiated a Trans Pacific Partnership with 11 nations. The TPP creates a road map that establishes the basis of an international trading network in the Asia-Pacific. The TPP will open privileged access to 800 million new customers for Canada with nearly $30 trillion economic activity. Considering that 50 per cent of Canada’s national economy comes from trade, the TPP is a gigantic achievement by the Conservative Government. Leading up to the agreement the NDP strongly opposed Canada’s participation in the TPP negotiations. Before getting details of the treaty, Thomas Mulcair threatened to renounce any agreement if the NDP form a government after Oct. 19. The NDP ignores reality. If we don’t partner in the TPP, American or Australian competitors will have tariff advantage over Canada. It could be game over for Canadian exports. Could the NDP political ploy put East Kootenay jobs and communities in peril? Production of coal in the Elk Valley creates over 25,000 jobs in mining, transport, equipment and other related sectors. Our local economy, our communities, our jobs depend on coal exports. In 2013, Japan, a charter member of the TPP, imported C$1.5 billion of Canadian coal. Coal generates over $3.2 billion in economic activity in B.C. each year and around $715 million in public revenues for all levels of government services like health care and education. This election is about the survival of our Kootenay way of life. The NDP have never formed a national government. Mulcair’s reckless posturing shows us why. Jim Abbott Senior Advisor Re-elect David Wilks MP Committee Wasa
Government as usual
All political parties play budgetary gamesmanship, as pointed by Tom Fletcher in his Sept. 22 column. When it comes to Government finance, it is really all about “creative financing”, such as running a big enough deficit last year, so they can have a surplus this year. Well, excuse me for being a bit cynical! So, what are we going to do when we go to vote. The election result is really already decided by the time we go and vote here in the Kootenays, so it doesn’t really matter
who we send to Ottawa, because they all have to “tow the party line”. So here are our choices, do we want to support Steven Harper, Tom Mulcair, Justin Trudeau or Elisabeth May. David Wilks was boisterous during the last election how he was NOT going to support a certain issue proposed by the party, and subsequently was called on the carpet and told what to do by Steven Harper’s people. How much of a voice was he for us? His response to Mr. Peter Moody’s letter regarding a dying veteran, who was to be recognized by the Government of Canada, was to hide behind the bureaucracy, making excuses. He could have instead been a good public servant and visit this war hero before he died. Wayne Stetski was fired as Mayor by the voters of Cranbrook, I don’t know why, because I don’t live there, but I will let you think about that. Don Johnston does the typical talking points he is given by the party. He points out that we need “a strong voice in Ottawa”, but I am not sure if he will be heard and I don’t know his qualifications to be my representative. Bill Green is articulate and smart, as shown by every all candidate Q&A and candidate forums. He is a recognized scientist in the fisheries and represents a party that has never had a scandal of any kind. He represents an economic plan which makes sense. The Green Party will not form the government, but Bill Green would be an intelligent and thoughtful representative in the House of Commons. So, if you are not sure who to vote for, vote for Bill Green and send a message to Ottawa, that we are sick of Government as usual. Jori Adank Kimberley
Strategic voting
On Monday there were a couple of Letters to the Editor encouraging us to vote strategically, or not to vote strategically. I have to admire the principled position of the writer opposed to voting strategically, but he seems to be encouraging us to continue to tilt at windmills. It must be apparent to anyone who has been faithfully voting for the Green party for years that while they may be putting their vote where their true beliefs lie, they don’t have a snowball’s chance in Vegas of actually making any progress with their dreams. Until we have a system of government where all voices have the opportunity to be part of the decision-making process there will continue to be many Canadians who remain unheard. Proportional Represention would allow all voters to be heard. Both the Liberals and the NDP have indicated intent to pursue such a system, while the Conservatives have shown no interest in anything other than the present system, where fully 60 per cent of the voting public is opposed to a Conservative government. It is in this climate where voting strategically becomes the only way where a future government may make changes which would allow every voter to have a real chance to effect how Canada moves forward. Basically if I have to temporarily submerge my true Green/Liberal/NDP feelings in order to get a different government in power who will change the way things are done then maybe sometime in my lifetime I might truly feel that my voice can be heard. For this reason, vote strategically. Roger Granville-Martin Cranbrook

Mount Baker volleyball runnin’ Wild
Mount Baker Secondary School senior girls volleyball team wins third consecutive tournament to open season Townsman Staff
After opening the season undefeated with a perfect 7-0 record and tournament title in Brooks, Alta., the Mount Baker Secondary School Wild senior girls volleyball team has continued its run of strong play into the month of October. On the strength of the season-opening win in Brooks, the senior girls then travelled east once again for the Lethbridge Collegiate Institute tournament from Sept. 25 to 27. The Wild knocked off the host team in the final for a second consecutive tournament title. This past weekend, the Wild stayed in the Kootenays, travelling to Castlegar for the Kootenay Classic, where they once again went undefeated and trumped Mount Sentinal Secondary School (South Slocan) in the championship contest. The Wild will take Thanksgiving weekend off from tournament play before returning to action Oct. 15 to 17 in Kelowna. The senior girls and senior boys squads will compete in the annual Best of the West tournament looking to continue what has already been an impressive season.

Canucks top Flames on NHL opening night Donna Spencer Canadian Press
CALGARY - Daniel Sedin had a goal and two assists for the Vancouver Canucks in a 5-1 season-opening win over the Calgary Flames on Wednesday. Jannik Hansen, Brandon Sutter, Alex Burrows and captain Henrik Sedin also scored for the visitors in a rematch of a Western Conference quarter-final playoff last April between Calgary and Vancouver. The Flames won that series in six games to advance to the second round, where they lost out in five to the Anaheim Ducks. Vancouver defenceman Ben Hutton recorded his first point in his NHL debut with an assist on Hansen’s goal. Canucks goaltender Ryan Miller made 29 saves for the win Jiri Hudler replied for the Flames with Karri Ramo stopping 39 of 44 shots in the loss. The two clubs square

off again Saturday in Vancouver for the second of their five meetings this season in the Pacific Division. Henrik Sedin scored on a sharp-angled wrist shot at 16:31 of the third extend Vancouver’s lead to four goals. The Canucks led 4-1 on an own-goal by Calgary at 8:17 in the third. Flames defenceman Dennis Wideman knocked down a long, off-speed shot by Burrows, but tipped it past Ramo. Daniel Sedin restored Vancouver’s twogoal lead with five seconds left in the second period. A Dan Hamhuis shot deflected off Ramo, then Sedin and into Calgary’s net to make it 3-1. The Flames trailing 2-0, Hudler halved the deficit at 3:39 of the second. Canucks defenceman Luca Sbisa turned the puck over under pressure from Sean Monahan. Johnny Gaudreau dished to Hudler who beat Miller

between the pads. Sutter scored a pretty goal in his first game in a Canucks jersey. He batted a rebound out of the air past Ramo with a deft touch at 18:01 of the first period. The Canucks dealt forward Nick Bonino, defenceman Adam Clendening and a draft pick to the Pittsburgh Penguins in July to obtain Sutter. Hansen took Hutton’s cross-ice pass along the boards and beat Ramo top corner glove side with a blast from the top of the circle at 10:34. Calgary’s Micheal Ferland and Vancouver’s Derek Dorsett dropped the gloves two seconds after the opening faceoff. Flames winger Brandon Bollig and Canucks forward Brandon Prust then traded punches eight minutes into the game. Notes: The Flames fell to 0-5-1 in their last six season-openers and have lost their last two to the Canucks . . .
The long night wasn’t quite over. Blades left wing Nikita Soshnin added one final dagger. Overshadowed by the 7-2 outcome was the first-career WHL goal of Ice left wing Roman Dymacek. The native of Hodonin, Czech Republic, went hard to the net and was rewarded with less than four minutes remaining in regulation. “His goal was a product of finally doing something the right way -- he drove the net hard
Continued from page 8 and was determined,” Pierce said. “But the other 59-1/2 minutes tonight, he just wasn’t there.” By the final buzzer, the Blades had outscored the Ice 7-2 on the strength of outshooting the visitors 32-18. Hobbs was good on 11 of 13 shots in relief of Hoflin. At the other end of the rink, Blades goaltender Nik Amundrud was almost a forgotten competitor, making 16 saves
on 18 shots. Adding injury to insult for the Ice was the loss of defenceman Cale Fleury in the second period. The 16-year-old blue-liner was knocked out of action by an upper-body injury and didn’t return for the third period. He isn’t expected to be available for the duration of this four-game eastern swing for the Ice. The Ice lost right wing Jaedon Descheneau to injury Tuesday
night and he also isn’t expected to be available until after the conclusion of the road trip. Life doesn’t get any easier for the Ice as they visit the Brandon Wheat Kings -- the fourthranked club in all of Canada -- Friday.

Cubs shutout Pirates in NL Wild Card game Will Gr aves Associated Press
PITTSBURGH These Chicago Cubs are supposed to be too young to be here. Or maybe they’re just too good to care. Jake Arrieta allowed four hits in nine dominant innings and the Cubs rolled to a 4-0 win over the Pittsburgh Pi-
rates in the NL wildcard game on Wednesday night. Arrieta struck out 11 without a walk. He also dusted himself off getting plunked by Pittsburgh reliever Tony Watson to send the Cubs to the NL Division Series in St. Louis starting on Friday.
Dexter Fowler homered and scored three times for the Cubs. Kyle Schwarber added a towering two-run shot off Pittsburgh starter Gerrit Cole as Chicago raced to an early lead and let Arrieta do the rest. Pittsburgh was knocked out after finishing second in the majors
with 98 victories this year. Last season, the Pirates also were shut out on four hits at home in the wild-card game, losing to San Francisco. The team with the best road record in the majors this season hardly fazed by the stakes or the weight of 106 years of post-season futility.

Whither the whitetails of the local woods? General Open Seasons on Female Whitetailed Deer To Continue for 2015
F.J. H u r ta k
D
espite some opposition from people such as myself and others, the Ministry of Forests Lands and Resources has decided to continue with wide-open doe seasons again this season. In 2012 the bag limit was increased to two, which caused doe harvest to nearly double in the East Kootenay. In 2013 antlerless harvest actually decreased substantially, but increased again in all Game Management zones in 2014 according to Ministry figures. Ministry officials have told me that anecdotal reports from hunters suggest fewer whitetails in the East Kootenay as a result of the liberal seasons but any population reductions are not yet apparent in harvest data numbers, as both buck and doe harvest success rates are relatively high in East Kootenay GMZs. Data, they have stated, comes from provincial hunter surveys, spring ground surveys, observation from aerial surveys and hunter observations. The season on antlerless whitetail is again October 10-31, followed by a youth season from November 1-30. As I mentioned in an article last year, I keep a diary of my personal sightings on whitetails during the rutting season in November, and I am seeing 50 per cent less in my traditional areas, of what I was seeing five years ago. I Need help with current events?
won’t argue that back then there was indeed a surplus of does, but that surplus, in my mind, is now long gone. The age class structure of the bucks in the system is also very dismal and there is sufficient evidence available to indicate less than five bucks per 100 does in many areas. The days of quality bucks in the 140 -plus category are almost non-existent, as a result of previous and current management strategies. Nevertheless, the recommended Management direction for 2016-20 from the Ministry is to manage for the highest sustainable harvest of both bucks and does, and maintain current antlerless GOS unless GMZ success rates drop below 20 per cent for three consecutive years. However, although the antlerless
seasons will remain in effect again this year, it has been recommended that the antler-less bag limit be reduced to one starting in 2016. That, from my standpoint anyway, is a step in the right direction. I certainly hope they follow through with that recommendation. Allowing hunters to kill two does each, year after year, is nothing short of ludicrous in my opinion. For every female deer killed, we are actually killing a potential three deer, one of which will likely be a buck, so I think wildlife managers have to recognize that the impact down the road can be far greater on the populations than what they might imagine. Regardless of whether you agree with me or not, I think it’s important that all hunt-
ers deserve a say, especially those who don’t belong to, or have a club to make their views known for them. So make your own personal views and field observations known to Ministry officials. The more data they have available from locals the easier it will be to formulate decisions in the future, and in fairness to the Ministry people whom I disagree with, on a regular basis it seems, I know they welcome that kind of input.

It happened this week in Cranbrook Week of October 4 - 10 Dave Humphrey Items compiled from the archived newspapers held at the Cranbrook History Centre Archives
1903 Election time …The election in the Cranbrook district passed off without any trouble. There was some excitement at times, and a few earnest discussions, but at no time was there any differences of a serious nature. The morning opened up cloudy and chilly, but before noon the sun came out and the day proved a perfect one. The workers on both sides had things well organized, and in consequence the vote was gotten, in at an early hour. In fact there were very few votes cast anywhere in the district after
4:30, so well had the managers in each poll sized up the work. In Cranbrook there were 939 votes cast, and the street in front of the booths was crowded most of the day by the workers of both parties and the voters coming and going. Both Dr. King and Mr. Caven were on hand all day to encourage their workers and to do their part in the battle that was being waged. Naturally there was some betting, but it was slow during the forenoon, if seemed to be conceded that up to noon the Caven side had a little the best of it, but after 12 o’clock the King men began to come and enthusiasm began to show. Finally some man offered to bet $100 on
Caven. It was taken, and more asked. This resulted in a few moments in odds of two to one; being offered on King, and then the money began to go up in bunches. In all probability between one and two thousand dollars were wagered, most of it at the above odds. Election returns … The latest returns received by The Herald up to 12 o’clock today by special service, gives the result as follows: Conservatives .. 22; Liberal .. 18; Socialist .. 2. Finally Dr. King was called and from the porches of the Cosmopolitan Hotel he made a brief talk, thanking them for the valuable assistance they had given in the campaign, and the voters of the district generally for the confidence they had shown in him by electing
him as their representative. Afterward the Doctor was picked up by his admirers and carried the length of the street. Then a large electric banner with the word “King” formed of electric light globes, was suspended in the middle of the street and was loudly cheered. It was a warm night in the old town and victors and vanquished celebrated together. There were some nasty things said under the bitterness of defeat and enthusiasm aroused by exhilarating liquids, and a few quarrels followed, but as a rule good natured prevailed. How’s that again? … The correspondent who gave a forecast of the Cranbrook vote to the Fort Steele Prospector smokes a warm brand of dope.

Wanted ... Bushmen, wages $40 per month and board for experienced men. Moyie Lumber and Milling Co. Moyie, B. C. A bad accident ... Claude Trotter, formerly a clerk in G. T. Roger’s store, and well known in Cranbrook as a young artist of promise, met with an horrible accident at Moyie last Monday night. He had been working in the saw mill at Ryan and boarded a freight train to come to Cranbrook. When he reached Moyie he changed his mind and concluded to stop there. The train was going through the town at full speed, and he jumped on the platform. He was thrown over and rolled off the platform under the train, having one leg crushed by the wheels. He was brought to Cranbrook Tuesday and taken to the St. Eugene hospital and yesterday the injured leg was amputated. Hunting party … A number of young men climbed the Three Sisters Mountain last Saturday and returned the following day. They took a rifle with them which did effective work on a band of 17 mountain goats that they encountered, as they brought back with them four fine heads. 1904 Not a nice job ... Constable Hoskins has received instructions from the provincial authorities at the coast to proceed at once with the collection of the personal poll tax in this town. This is not a pleasant
duty to perform, as the average citizen protests against the payment of this tax, although it is only $3. Yet it is the law, and Mr. Hoskins’ instructions are positive and peremptory, therefore he must proceed at once. Under the law and his instructions, after he has asked a person for the tax and it is not forthcoming, he must at once issue summons for the delinquent and then the matter is in the hands of the courts. People often blame a constable for performing his duty and forget that it is that with the constable or the loss of his position. Crooked elections … If they get a few more Liberals in Ontario for crooked elections the political complexion of the local house will be entirely changed. Every Liberal who is caught in crooked work at an election should be prosecuted, and when the Liberals have been attended to, then go after the Conservatives. Get caught up … A few arrests in Cranbrook might prove a good thing. Reckless driving, profanity on the streets and a few more things like that would receive a check. You’ve been fooled … An easy joke has been worked on the many travellers over the Great Northern railway between Jennings and Swinton. The trainmen got hold of a couple of discarded telephone instruments and connected them up with one in each compartment of the accommodation car. Then with the train run-

ning at 30 miles per hour a fictitious enquirer from Morrissey or some other distant point, would ring up a traveller and pretend to transact business with him. Nearly all would bite readily though some would afterwards shake their heads and sagely remark, “Marvellous, these scientific inventions!” Dear editor… As a constant reader of your valuable paper I desire to congratulate you upon your advice to young people. Now with your permission I will make a few suggestions that I feel sure will be endorsed by the many mothers who read your paper. I have thought much and much has been said and written about “Where is my boy to night.” As a mother who has several daughters and no boy, I would like this inquiry changed so as to read, “Where is my girl tonight.” With pangs of remorse one must admit, that in our community at least, many of our girls who have good homes are on the streets seven nights in the week. They wander listlessly about, no object in view. They bring upon themselves slighting remarks from street loafers. They gossip and flirt with young men, they would blush with shame to have enter their home. My girls would not desire to loaf upon the streets and in the store if others did not do so. Can we not as mothers organize and in some manner, prevent this growing evil that sooner or later is sure to destroy the happiness of our homes. Would it not be much better for our girls to spend their evenings at home in mental improvement, or if they prefer meet at each others’ homes. Anything to keep them off the streets. They lose the respect of all good citizens and sooner or later will lose all respect for themselves. Respectfully submitted by A Mother.

Alittle Voodoo on stage Live at Studio 64 Mike Redfern
No, it’s not a typo. The Calgary award-winning blues band, Alittle Voodoo, spells it that way. The band has been around since 1992 under that name, led by contemporary blues singer/songwriter Ron Burke. They made their first CD in 1993 and in 1994 started touring with such greats as Colin James, Jeff Healey, Long John Baldry, Bo Diddley and many others. And now they are coming to Kimberley, performing Live at Studio 64 on October 17, the third of the four bands in this year’s fall jazz and blues series sponsored by Kimberley Arts Council. The band consists of Burke on vocals and lead guitar, Tom Knowles on bass, and Rob Vulic on drums. Sometimes the trio becomes a quartet with the addition of Russell Brown on guitars. Burke was inducted into the 2010 Calgary Blues Music Hall of Fame as guitar player of the year. Tom Knowles was similarly honoured in both 2009 and 2010 as best bass player of the year. Knowles started his career playing with Long John Baldry and also worked with Jimmy Page,
Tom Jones, and other greats. Yes, their credentials are rather impressive and it’s a privilege to have them bring their musical expertise to Kimberley for what we can only anticipate will be an excellent evening of top class blues music. The Live at Studio 64 series got underway September 5 with Gabriel Palatchi’s rousing Latin jazz which was followed by the quieter, perhaps more clinical jazz performed by the Tyler Hornby Trio on September 26, both concerts enthusiastically received by full houses at Studio 64. Alittle Voodoo will be followed by the final concert in this year’s fall jazz/ blues series, performed by the Alan Brecker Quartet, another fine Calgary band, on November 21. Advance tickets for Alittle Voodoo and for the Alan Brecker Quartet are available at Centre 64 (250-427-4919 or kimberleyarts@gmail.com) or online at ‘snapd East Kootenay’, $22 for Kimberley Arts Council members, $24 for non-members. Tickets at the door are all $26. Both concerts start at 8 p.m. with doors open at 7.30 for bar service and table seating.

Cummingsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Fun Day Paralympic Fundraiser A â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Grandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Success Submitted Sarah Cummings was thrilled with the turnout and support from local horse enthusiasts. The horse show brought in both Western and English riders that competed in a number of classes in Dressage, Trail Horse and Jumping. Juniors, adults, beginners and advanced riders competed for generously donated prizes from The Bedaz-
zled Horse, East Kootenay Equine Vet and LizAnne and Sarah Cole from Creston. A class called â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Hoof and Woofâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; was the highlight of the competition and filled the day with laughter from competitors and spectators alike. This drew not only horses, but our canine companions as well. Team spirits soured between horse and dog owners as these pairs of
athletes competed over a timed jump course for the fastest combined time. Winners of this event were LeeAnn McDonald, her daughter Kirby and their family dog Bitsy. This is just the beginning for Sarah in her quest to raise funds to sponsor her Olympic goals. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I need to spend an enormous amount of time training so I can compete against the
best of the best in Florida this winter and every little bit of funding helps me to do this,â&#x20AC;? says Cummings. Sarahâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top placings this year has Equine Canada watching her closely to possibly represent Canada in Rio de Janeiro for the 2016 Paralympic Games.

Grateful Patient Gives Back to EKRH F o r t h e To w n s m a n
Life – it can be filled with unexpected trials and astounding miracles. Yet those who are touched by both circumstances simultaneously, and then use their experiences to benefit others, are few and far between. Don Hampton is an example of such people. Mr. Hampton, Carpentry Instructor at COTR, wanted to do something special to give back to the Hospital that helped him, his family and friends, through the most challenging times of their lives. With that in mind, Mr. Hampton started conceptualizing an idea for a fundraiser to benefit EKRH. Instead of writing a thank you note or a similar gesture, Mr. Hampton was inspired by a large standing dead fir tree he came across during a hike. He realized immediately that this was not ordinary wood, this fir
had character like he had never seen — hit by lightning, scarred by forest fire at least twice, drought, bad and good years were all very evident. Mr. Hampton, having worked with wood all of his life, knew this tree was something special and that the wood should be more than just firewood. From this tree, Mr. Hampton not only embarked on a journey to create something beautiful for his family, he knew this would be a wonderful opportunity to pay thanks to the staff at EKRH – the idea of a handcrafted cradle came to life. EKFH will be auctioning off the beautifully handcrafted cradle. You will have an opportunity to place your bid at the October10th Farmer’s Market and if you are unable to make it that day, the handcrafted cradle will be on display at the Tamarack Centre late
Don Hampton’s handcrafted fir cradle will be auctioned off at the Oct. 10 Cranbrook Farmer’s Market, afternoon on October 10 until mall closing on October 24th. “I feel good about making this gift, and

terials for creating the enclosure that is currently protecting the cradle – their support of this fundraiser has been greatly appreciated. “ “Mr. Hampton’s passion and dedication to giving back to the staff and institution that has served him, his family and friends well over the years, is truly admirable.

The art and science of water harvesting, with Rob Avis.
Avis hosts Water Harvesting workshop in Cranbrook Submit ted
The Cranbrook Food Action Committee in partnership with Wildsight Kimberley/Cranbrook will be hosting Rob Avis of Verge Permaculture for a Water Harvesting Workshop on October 13 from 6-9 pm. The workshop will be taking place at the Manual Training School in Cranbrook and registration is available online at wildsight.ca/waterharvesting. Rob Avis left Calgary’s oil fields and retooled his engineering career to help clients and students design integrated systems for shelter, energy, water, waste and food, all while supporting local economy and regenerating the land. He is leading the next wave of permaculture education, and has earned a reputation as one of Canada’s preeminent permaculture experts. Rob has received glowing testimonials from bestselling author Toby Hemenway and “beyond-organic farming” superstar Joel Salatin. “Permaculture is a philosophy of working with, rather than against nature. The aim is to create systems that are ecologically-sound and economically viable, which provide for their own needs, do not exploit or pollute, and are therefore sustainable in the long term.” Bill Mollison. The concept of permaculture is closely linked to water, and designers like Rob believes that through intelligent landscape design, it is even possible to go beyond water conservation and actually recharge groundwater supplies.
After the region experienced a summer of serious water restrictions, smoky skies, and predictions of drier summers to come, it has become apparent that water conservation and responsible usage is a hot topic. When this valuable resource falls from the sky there are ways to make the most of it, resulting in reduced water consump-
tion, and financial savings. This three hour workshop led by Rob Avis intends to help participants learn the key components of water harvesting. The workshop will cover water capture from roofs and other surfaces, and passive versus active storage systems. Participants will also take advantage of a hands-on demonstra-
tion in building a water harvesting system with simple tools and inexpensive components found at the local hardware store. The Water Harvesting Workshop costs $40 per person and if cost is a barrier, volunteer bursaries are available. To register visit: wildsight. ca/waterharvesting or call 250 427 9325 x 221.

U.S. says American eels won’t be listed under the Endangered Species Act ASSOCIATED PRESS
PORTLAND, Maine American eels will not be listed under the Endangered Species Act, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service said Wednesday, a victory for fishermen of the increasingly valuable species. The wildlife service rejected a petition from the California-based Center for Environmental Science, Accuracy & Reliability to list the eels - which are prized in Asian cuisine - as threatened. The petitioners argued that the eels have lost more than 80 per cent of their habitat and the security of the stock is jeopardized by fishing pressure from commercial fishing. But the wildlife service told The Associated Press that a
report to be issued Wednesday will say that “there have been large declines in abundance from historical times” but “the species currently appears to be stable.” Fishermen and fishing advocacy groups campaigned against additional protections for eels. Listing them under the Endangered Species Act would have severely limited the ability to harvest them as a commercial species, and they can be of high economic value because of their use in sushi. Maine baby eels were worth more than $2,100 per pound in 2015, up from less than $100 per pound in 2009. The baby eels, called elvers, are sold to Asian aquaculture companies that raise them to maturity

The service acknowledges that habitat loss and fishing have cut back eel populations in localized areas, but the fish’s challenges do not rise to the level of listing under the Endangered Species Act, said Krishna Gifford, a listings co-ordinator for the service. The eels’ popula-
tion is much lower than it was in the 1970s and ‘80s after a decline in the ‘90s and 2000s, but it appears to have stabilized since, the service said. “We know these things are not threatening the overall species,” Gifford said. “We know the eels remain widely distributed through
IMF urgently warns countries to address climate change ASSOCIATED PRESS
LIMA, Peru - International Monetary Fund chief Christine Lagarde said Wednesday that failure to take urgent action on global warming will condemn humanity to the same fate as the Peruvian poultry that so many delegates to the group’s annual meeting
are enjoying this week in a country famed for its cuisine. “If we collectively chicken out of this we’ll all turn into chickens and we’ll all be fried, grilled, toasted and roasted,” said Lagarde. Her comments came in a panel discussion involving World Bank

President Jim Yong Kim, U.N. climate talks executive secretary Christiana Figueres and economist and climate expert Nicholas Stern. Lagarde and Kim argued strongly for removing subsidies on fossil fuels that are worth more than $5 trillion a year and on the immediate need for carbon taxes so that the burning of fossil fuels can fund clean energy replacements. But they both acknowledged it’s a big challenge. “We have been trying to help countries remove fuel subsidies,” said Kim, which inevitably means higher prices at the gas pump. “But politicians don’t like it when bus drivers and taxi drivers block the streets.” Questioned about whether the world’s governments can make the necessary shift to clean energy to prevent catastrophic climate change, Figueres said that while pledges from 146 countries submitted ahead of December’s climate talks in Paris are not enough to bring greenhouse gases down to acceptable levels, she believes closing the gap is “entirely doable.”

Canadian pumpkin producers profiting from U.S. shortage C ANADIAN PRESS
MONTREAL - Canadian pumpkin producers are carving out opportunities in the American Midwest after heavy rain threatened to cause a jack o’ lantern shortage as Halloween approaches. Some growers in the U.S. have sought help from other states and Canada to make up the shortfall in fresh product caused by a massive disruption during the key June planting season. Between 50 and 60 per cent of the region’s crop was wiped out by record rain. “It has caused everybody to scramble and look to get them wherever they can,” said Darrell Theis, co-owner of Theis Farms in Missouri. About 40,000 kilograms of Canadian pumpkins were delivered to his eight-hectare farm earlier this month. That supplied about 25 per cent of the deficit. Theis said it’s not the first time he’s turned to Canadian producers while faced with potential pumpkin peril.
“We’re all in it together (and) every once in awhile we have to help each other out,” he said in an interview. The strong U.S. dollar makes it especially attractive for American producers to look north, added Philippe Quinn, owner of Quinn Farms near Montreal. “I wouldn’t be surprised that there will be some loads coming in from Ontario, maybe a little bit from Quebec,” he said. Like many Canadian growers, Quinn’s operation is enjoying a good selling season. Canada grew more than 65,000 tonnes of pumpkins last year, with nearly half in Ontario, followed by Quebec and British Columbia. In the U.S., however, wet weather has driven up pumpkin prices and prompted canned pumpkin manufacturer Libby’s to warn of shortages of its pie filling since this year’s harvest will last only until next month’s American Thanksgiving. Canadian pumpkin producers haven’t faced the same problems.
Montreal planning to dump wastewater C ANADIAN PRESS
MONTREAL - The federal environment minister says she found out only recently about Montreal’s plan to dump eight billion litres of raw sewage into the St. Lawrence River. Leona Aglukkaq tweeted today that her office learned last week of the wastewater dump plan, which has become fodder in the federal election campaign and the subject of intense debate at the Quebec legislature. Prime Minister Stephen Harper weighed in during a Saskatoon campaign stop today, urging the city to find an alternative plan. On Tuesday, the federal government urged the city to suspend the planned dump, prompting Mayor Denis Coderre to accuse Otta-
wa of playing “cheap” politics. The one-week sewage dump is set to begin Oct. 18 and is aimed at relocating a snow chute that runs under a major downtown expressway that is being razed. Coderre has said federal officials have known about the plan since September 2014 and he gave Environment Canada until the end of the week to meet with him and city officials. In Quebec City, Premier Philippe Couillard reaffirmed support for Coderre’s plan, saying experts have gone over numerous scenarios and that the dump remains the best. Coderre said this week he’s satisfied the plan is the best option available.

HOROSCOPES by Jacqueline Bigar
ARIES (March 21-April 19) You nearly always have high energy, and today you have someone cheering you on. This person’s enthusiasm revs up yours. Conceptualize and share ideas. Use the afternoon for organization. Don’t forget to schedule an appointment. Tonight: Put up your feet and relax. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Stay close to home in the morning. You might have a personal matter you have to deal with. Your playfulness will emerge later in the day, and you’ll want to take the day off. Why not? You might want to consider taking Friday off as well. Tonight: Whatever makes you smile. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Reach out to a neighbor or sibling in the morning. You might want to spend more time at home than usual. Make that idea OK. If you can work from home, all the better. Relax, and you are likely to gain a better perspective of what is happening. Tonight: Togetherness is the
theme. CANCER (June 21-July 22) Pay bills and deal with money matters first. Communication will increase, and once you start getting calls, you will barely have a second to yourself. Recognize what is happening between you and a close friend who needs your time. Tonight: Speak your mind. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) A positive attitude will take you far. Who would be better than you to demonstrate that fact? Even if you experience a difficult moment or two with a child or loved one, you can’t deny the power of the bond that exists between you. Tonight: Get the bills organized. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You’ll finally hit your stride, but you still might be concerned about a financial matter. Recognize what is happening with your funds, and talk to an expert if need be. Get back to your day and handle a personal matter quickly. Tonight: Choose a favorite pastime. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Tundra
Slow down. When you move too quickly, you encounter a problem. More information might be forthcoming, or a conversation could color your thinking. Sometimes a slow simmer is the best path to an excellent decision. Tonight: Take some much-needed personal time. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Be aware of what is being offered and why. You could be overwhelmed by everything you have to do. Recognize your limits, and delegate whatever you can. Establish stronger boundaries as well. Respect your limits rather than push beyond them. Tonight: A must appearance. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You might be more closed down than you realize. Your mind is on other matters, and you don’t seem to be aware of the impression you are giving. You usually are able to see past the obvious, but not right now. Take some time to yourself. Tonight: Out till the wee hours. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) As knowledgeable as you are, you will need to reach out to
someone who has more expertise. You are able to see where others are coming from, but you’ll want as many facts as possible. Trust in your ability to get past a problem. Tonight: Go off to the movies. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You could be too tired to continue as you have been. If you ask for help, you can count on others coming through. You don’t need to carry the burden of having to do everything by yourself. Just ask. Be aware that a friend could be touchy. Tonight: Say “yes” to an offer. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You won’t want to get into a power struggle. Consider letting go of a personal matter and allowing someone else to handle it. Not only will this person’s approach be different, but it also might change what is happening. Tonight: Buy a token of appreciation to say thank you.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: I read you on Facebook and hope you can help. My husband and I have been married for two years, after living together for five. We have four beautiful children. Things were going well until we moved into our new home. It’s as if we suddenly became strangers. We barely spoke to each other. He kept a lot of secrets and lied about everything. I started snooping around and found out he was having two online affairs. I confronted him, and he became angry, as if it were my fault. He made me feel terrible, so I let him walk all over me and was miserable. He claims these “affairs” were the same as looking at pornography, but he’s wrong. I know one of these women, and they were both sending him text messages and racy photos. Last month, he cleared out half of our bank account and won’t tell me where the money went. After that, I told him he had to stop or the marriage was over, so he trashed his phone and now he rarely gets online. But I can’t help thinking, given the chance, he would do it all again. I love him and our family and believe in keeping our marriage intact, but I just don’t trust him anymore. Should I leave him or give him another chance? -- Confused and Worried Wife Dear Confused: When trust disappears in a marriage, it takes a great deal of effort -- from both parties -- to regain a foothold. You have four children together. Your husband has apparently trashed his phone and rarely gets online, and, as far as you know, he is no longer carrying on with other women. These things would justify giving him another chance. But he still hasn’t explained or replaced the missing money (this is a huge red flag) and, obviously, you don’t fully believe that he will remain faithful down the road. This is why counseling is so important. Please ask your husband to go with you to see a professional who can help him understand why his behavior is so damaging, and work on ways for you to trust him again. As always, if he refuses to go with you, go alone. Dear Annie: I read the letter from “Know the Difference Between You’re and Your,” who worked part-time as a proofreader and media relations contact for a good friend who didn’t like to have her grammar or spelling corrected. I agree with your suggestion of tact, instead of the writer’s apparent “I’m right, you’re wrong,” approach. A spirit of camaraderie and mutual support is always helpful. I’d also like to recommend that “Know the Difference” buy a copy of “The Chicago Manual of Style” and try to get her boss to agree that the experts will settle all bets. -- Marty in SoCal Dear Marty: This is an excellent suggestion. The CMOS is one of the most widely used guides for American English. It was first published in 1906 and the latest edition can be found in hardcover or online. Using such a guide would defer grammar and spelling questions to a respected authority and remove some of the rancor between friends.

ADVERTISING OPPORTUNITY A powerful tool when you want to reach your potential customers â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the Daily Townsman and Daily Bulletin are invited into over 6,900 homes every day, Monday to Friday.

Want to reach new customers? We read the newspaper every day, Monday to Friday.
Top Ten Reasons to Advertise in a Newspaper 1. Advertise to Reach New Customers. Your market changes constantly. Advertising is tremendously helpful in directing customers to the product and services they need, and helps put you ahead of your competition.
2. Your Competition Isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t Quitting. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to advertise to get your share of business or lose it to the stores that do. If you cut back on your advertising, you may forfeit new prospective customers to your competition.
3. Advantage Over Competitors Who Cut Back. A five year survey of more than 3,000 companies found that advertisers who maintained or expanded advertising during a troubled economy saw sales increase an average of 100%.
4. Continuous Advertising Strengthens Your Image. When people who postpone buying come back to the marketplace, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a better chance of getting their business if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve continued to maintain a solid, reliable image.
5. Direct Advertising is Cost Efficient. Direct has the advantages â&#x20AC;&#x201C; demographic and geographic numbers to afford advertisers the best value and exposure for their advertising dollar.
6. Advertise to Generate Traffic.

Continuous traffic is the first step toward sales increases and expanding your base of buyers. The more people who contact you, the more possibilities you have to make sales.
7. Advertise to Make More Sales. Advertising works! Businesses that succeed are usually strong, steady advertisers. Look around. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll find the most aggressive and consistent advertisers are almost invariably the most successful.
8. Advertise Because There is Always Business to Generate. Salespeople are on the payroll. As long as youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in business, you have overhead and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to advertise to generate a steady cash flow.
9. Advertise to Keep a Healthy Positive Image. In a troubled economy, rumors and bad news travel fast. Advertising corrects gossip, shoots down false reports and projects positively.
10. Advertise to Maintain Employee Morale. When advertising and promotion are cut, salespeople become less motivated. They may believe the store is cutting back, even going out of business.
