Holocaust survivor encourages unconditional love Kelly Running Observer Staff

Two students embrace the Day of Pink in Carlyle for antibullying awareness on Thursday, May 7.
Born in Hungary, Dr. Eva Olsson experienced some of the worst hate in the world, as a Jewish person under the Nazi regime. Having lived through the Holocaust Olsson now uses her harrowing experiences to talk about hate and bullying. She attended both G.F. Kells High School (with visiting students from White Bear) and Arcola School, for their Pink Days focused on anti-bullying, to speak to the student bodies on Thursday, May 7. In the evening she brought her powerful words to Carlyle Memorial Hall for the community to hear. As a Holocaust survivor Dr. Olsson is compelled to share her story and the story of her family, this she does for everyone who can’t, whose stories are forever lost in the concentration camps and death camps of the Nazi regime. “You’re going to hear me speak about the Nazi bullies, but not every German was a Nazi and every Nazi was not a German,” she stated as she began speaking to the students at G.F. Kells. One of the first things Dr. Olsson asked the students was who amongst them uses the word, hate. “My hand didn’t go up, it’s not because I’m shy, when you get to my age you’re not shy anymore,” Dr. Olsson says. “I don’t use the word hate, never.” This is something that she has passed down to her children and grandchildren as well. While babysitting them, they would use the word, but Olsson would not stand for it. “I taught my grandchildren to say I don’t like, that sounds better than hate,” she stated. “What is, ‘I don’t like?’ I don’t like it when I’m called names, do you? And I don’t like it when I’m pushed around. But I don’t hate, because hate is a killer, not a joke.” This is why Olsson is proud to call herself a Canadian: “People come from everywhere and that’s what makes Canada a very special country. Whether young or not so young, you’re Canadian.” “I wasn’t born here but I have been a Canadian for 64 years and I am very proud to be a Canadian. You know how you become a Canadian? By accepting the values that Canada represents, that’s what makes us Canadians. That means no bullies and no bystanders.” Olsson then brought the focus of her talk to her life during World War II and to thoughts of her family. “I was bullied by the Nazi bullies; I was 19 when they bullied me,” Olsson said. “They didn’t like my religion.” “Don’t be a bystander please, because that’s what happened in Europe. I was there. Seventy-one years ago.” In 1939 the Nazi regime had come to occupy Poland. At this time, Olsson was a young teenager living in Hungary whose thoughts were of the war ending soon. It didn’t, for six years war ravaged Europe and the Nazis reigned. The reason why Olsson now speaks came out of her telling the students about her past: “One and a half million children under 15 were murdered. Five of them were my nieces, little girls: a three and a half-year-old, a two-year-old, a one-year-old, a six-month-old, and a 2-month-old. I made it my mission to speak for them and all other children, all whose voices were silenced by hate. They died because they were hated.” Though Olsson’s family wasn’t wealthy, they all, her parents, brothers, sisters, their spouses, and her nieces all lived together. “We didn’t have electricity and we had no indoor toilet, or water… we had a wooden toilet outside for all of us, but it wasn’t bad, the family was altogether at that point,” she explained. In 1944 this would all change as the Nazis occupied Hungary. Olsson and her family were told to pack their bags because they were being shipped to Germany to work in a brick factory, or at least that’s what they were told. Together they marched the seven kilometres to the train station where endless rows of boxcars were lined up, waiting. People, 100 to 110, were packed into the cars with standing room only. “There were two buckets in each boxcar, one was for drinking and the other was to be used as a toilet. There was little air and the older people died. People were crying. People were praying.”

From Page 1 - Dr. Eva Olsson THE LUCKIEST SIGNS THIS WEEK: VIRGO, LIBRA AND SCORPIO.
Week of May 17 to 23, 2015 ARIES You’re not shy about speaking your mind when addressing a crowd of people of various nationalities. The situation calls for you to express yourself in another language.
TAURUS You find the necessary financing to complete an important project. Your investment is very profitable in the long term, whether it involves a property or a business.
GEMINI You’d better renew your passport before summer arrives. You’re increasingly tempted by new adventures that mostly take place abroad.
CANCER You feel increasingly tired. Take the signals your body is sending you seriously, as they are warnings for you to slow down. Sleep is precious; don’t neglect to go to bed early every evening.
LEO You’re in good company as you go on a great adventure or special trip. If you’re single, love at first sight is just around the corner.
When the boxcars stopped people fell out of them attempting to inhale fresh air, but there was none as black smoke stung their lungs instead of the stale air of the boxcar. Olsson, her family, and the others in the car had arrived at Auschwitz-Birkenau in Poland. “Black smoke covered the skies, machine guns, electric fences, guards everywhere, I turned to my mom and I said ‘Why are we going here? This does not look like a brick factory.’ Auschwitz-Birkenau was a killing factory.” As they stood there, Olsson was holding onto the hand of one of her nieces when a prisoner passed near her telling her to “give the child to the older woman.” Olsson wouldn’t let go, not until the prisoner came back a third time, telling her to let go. He didn’t tell Olsson why, but she soon found out. “Had I not let go of her hand I wouldn’t be standing here, I would have gone where most of my family went, except at that point I didn’t know where that was.” As they were moved through the line up, Dr. Josef Mengele, the “Angel of Death,” inspected each person. Men in one line and women in another, he would look them up and down, then flick his wand to the right or to the left. Olsson and her family took their turn in line, she and her younger sister were sent to the right, while her mother (or any woman with a young child) was sent to the left. “I was sent to the right and I turned to look for my mom, but it was so quick, I didn’t see her. I didn’t have a chance to say goodbye, or I love you, or I’m sorry for disobeying you.” Breaking from her account, she asked the students Staff photo by Kelly Running if they had ever disobeyed their mom. Hands went up and a sad look crossed her face, “I wish I hadn’t. What Dr. Eva Olsson, a Holocaust survivor, spoke to the students matters is love and rules parents have are made out of of G.F. Kells (with visiting students from White Bear) and love. It’s okay to disagree, but not to disobey.” Arcola School, as well as to the community in the evening
on Thursday, May 7.

VIRGO You find yourself shouldering some new responsibilities. You may find them onerous at times, but they’ll open up some great opportunities for you in the future.
LIBRA You start organizing your summer vacation with family and friends. Great adventures are in the cards, and you have no intention of missing out on any of these opportunities.
SCORPIO You’re a very sensitive person in general, and you’re also quite unpredictable. You could leave without warning, whether the situation concerns your love relationship or your job.
SAGITTARIUS It’s not always easy to bring together people or groups with opposing interests. You find all the necessary arguments to move mountains. Staff photo by Kelly Running
CAPRICORN It’s time to make some small changes in your circle of friends. Some people in your entourage are sapping your strength and goodwill. Try to plan at least one day of relaxation or therapeutic treatments.

From Page 2 - Dr. Eva Olsson Olsson would never see her mother again. In an instance she was ripped from her life. The older men and women, children, and anyone in poor health were all taken to the gas chamber. A second inspection after Dr. Mengele’s initial separation was done was completed. Those who were not sent to the gas chamber were ordered to strip, if you were healthy you were sent to the bathhouse, deloused, and then to the barracks. Given rough, scratchy prisoner clothes of varying sizes, nothing ever fit properly. “We were given rations, one piece of bread that was 70 percent sawdust, do you know what sawdust is?� Olsson asked. “Well that’s what our bread was made of and ‘dirty water soup,’ that’s what we called it because it was made from unwashed potato peelings.� Olsson explained that this was not the end of the terror the Nazis inflicted. In Romania she explained to the students that the boxcars the Romanian Jewish people were packed into were in fact death trains with no destination, simply travelling up and down the track until everyone in the boxcar was dead. If Nazis were told to shoot a woman holding a child, Olsson explained that they were taught to shoot through the baby to the woman so as to only use one bullet. “Not everyone was a bully and not everyone was a bystander,� Olsson stated. “The Nazis occupied Bulgaria, but the Bulgarians wouldn’t allow anyone to be taken. In Denmark, Danish Jews were smuggled to Sweden on fishing boats.� The Holocaust saw 11 million people killed. Many were Jewish, while many others were also targeted by the Nazis and they were all silenced by hate. “Before you tell someone you hate them, or say you hate something, please, I ask you to count to 10. That’s not too hard, but think of the victims, victims who were your age, that died because of hate.� From the camp, Olsson and her sister were sent to Dusseldorf for hard labour. The slept on the ground, covered by a pup tent that didn’t
help keep them dry. The rain would pool on the ground, so they were still soaked when they woke up at 4:30 a.m. to unload bricks. She and her sister were then sent to an ammunitions factory, which was appreciated by them because here they were shown some kindness. The factory owners fed them. In October of 1944 they were taken to Bergen-Belsen, another concentration camp. They remained for a harsh winter, always cold and wet, and it was during their time here that dysentery infected the prisoners. “There was not enough food or water to sustain life,� Olsson stated. “I had a fever and there was no water, so I peed on a rag to hold against my forehead. I saw other women drinking their own urine because they were so thirsty. But you can only put out as much as you put in and we had very little.� It was during this time that the Allied forces were pushing into the countries where the concentration camps were and the Nazis running the camps were attempting to leave the prisoners to die, even taking away the “dirty water soup,� their only meal. In fact it was planned for the Gestapo to shoot the prisoners of the concentration camp at 3 p.m. on April 15. This plan would never come to fruition as Canadian and British troops liberated them at 11 a.m. that morning. The soldiers had travelled from Holland. “I was very sick, but I knew I was free,� Olsson said. “Fourteen thousand died after being liberated; the doctors couldn’t help them. But, they died free.� Following the war Olsson went to Sweden where she met her husband. They were from different countries, believed in different religions, and had many other differences, but they loved each other a great deal. “You have to love each other unconditionally,� Olsson said. “And that’s what I give to you, unconditional love, the acceptance of another person, wholly. It doesn’t matter what they look like, what they believe, but that you accept them for who they are.�

of three a broad spectrum of dance disciplines, including: ballet, tap, jazz, lyrical and contemporary dance, as well as musical theatre. The studio’s final performance of the season was held in Carlyle on Friday, May 8, and featured 40 selections performed by dancers from Arcola, Carlyle, Lampman, Manor, and Oxbow. “I’m so pleased that all of the performers have the opportunity to showcase their hard work, enthusiasm, and talent,” says Lawrence-Bhimji. “We not only focus on excellence,” she says. “ I also want to foster a lifelong love of dance in our students.” Along with a full slate of competitions, students from the school were also offered two unique performance opportunities, says Lawrence-Bhimji. “A group of dancers performed on a Carnival Cruise ship that sailed through the Caribbean in February and our dancers also performed as part of (Saskatchewan’s) Telemiracle broadcast.” The cruise-on the Carnival Liberty-took place during the dancer’s February school break. The ship sailed through the Caribbean, docking in Mexico, the Bahamas, and Isla Roatan. The Dance Zone troupe performed a two-night showcase, performing a 30-minute, non-stop routine; a performance open to all of the ship’s guests. “We had 34 dancers from ages five to 17 doing the cruise,” says Lawrence-Bhimji. “I learned about the opportunity to do a cruise through a friend who had taken their studio. To apply, we sent an audition tape of past performances. It usually takes about 12 to 18 months to be placed, but they were quite impressed with what they saw from the dancers, because we were chosen and given a date within four months.” “The opportunity to dance on the ship was open to all of our dance families, and it was so nice to have so many that did sign on,” she adds. “It gives them an eye-opening opportunity to see what the future could hold for them as dancers, such as pernorming on cruise ships and seeing the world.” Closer to home, dancers from the studio also performed during the 2015 Telemiracle broadcast; and also presented pledges and contributions from their home communities. Lawrence-Bhimji says the March telecast was another opportunity for her students to enhance their love of dance, as well as use their talent to enhance the lives of others. Dance Zone’s senior dance troupe auditioned in Sptember 2014 with a piece called “All That Jazz,” and in November, they learned they were chosen to be a part of the broadcast. “We chose to audition for Telemiracle because it was another opportunity to perform. As a

It’s also about the love of dance and participating in non-competitive settings like Telemiracle is especially good for that.” “We’ve had an extremely busy year,” she says “And I am so grateful for the support of our teacher assistants at the Dance Zone, the parents of our dancers, the places in Carlyle who let us use their facilities, and of course, our dancers. Everyone has helped us pave our road to success.” “It’s such an honour to come to teach in such a supportive community and to pass on the love of dance to another group of young performers,” says Lawrence-Bhimji. “I consider myself very lucky to have the opportunity to inspire them and to teach them.”

Quote of the Week . . . “As soon as you feel too old to do a thing, do it.” - Margaret Deland Writer (1857-1945)
Obama and I don’t eat beets
My husband likes beets. I know, I know...so what? Well, my husband likes beets and I didn’t know. I mean I had absolutely no idea. We were trying to locate a picture and our search took us into a trunk where we are storing photo albums and memorabilia from our wedding. Tucked inside a Shelley Luedtke planning binder where I had kept bills, schedules and to-do lists, I found some items from the early weeks of our marriage including the till receipt from our first trip to the grocery store. Curious to see what we felt were necessary groceries, I started reading the list and burst out laughing when I came upon the purchase of a can of beets. “Beets?” I laughed, “Why in the world would we buy beets?” since I thoroughly dislike them. To which my husband responded, “Because I love beets.” And I didn’t know. Granted, it’s not the most important thing to know about a person, but after sharing my life with this man for as long as I have, I should have been able to list beets among his favourite foods. Sadly, I know Barack Obama doesn’t eat beets but I wasn’t paying close enough attention to know my husband would like to. Not knowing this hasn’t had life-altering affects, but of course in other instances not knowing is a potential for tremendous harm. Not knowing the warning signs of a heart attack puts lives at risk. Not knowing how to use a fire extinguisher endangers lives and puts property in jeopardy. Not knowing how to manage money causes financial vulnerability. Not knowing can have serious ramifications. Not knowing how to express gratitude for what we have makes us unable to open our hearts for what more may come. Not knowing how to say thank you makes us unable to appreciate the fullness of what someone has done for us. Not knowing how to demonstrate compassion makes us less effective at determining what our action plan should be to help others. Perhaps it’s not so much we don’t know how… maybe it’s more that we have forgotten, or in the busyness of life we have stopped to take the time to do so. But just as recognizing the signs of a heart attack is of crucial importance-so is recognizing and expressing concern for who, and what, is around us. I didn’t know about a family who was sleeping on the floor because they had no beds, or that a lady who was away was concerned her lawn needed mowing, or that it takes pocket change to inoculate a child against deadly disease in nations I’ve never visited. But someone else did, we were told, and once we knew we could choose to do something about it. That’s why we need to listen not only with ears that hear but with hearts that empathize. When we know…we can do. Do what is helpful. Do what brings comfort. Do what brings hope. Do what will increase the joy, alleviate some heartache, and help with the emotional and physical heavy lifting. We may use too many words when what was needed was a hug, we may bring a cake when what was preferred was a pie, we may show up with the incorrect tools or even buy the wrong

The importance of voting correlate to a stronger force for the Democracy as defined by NDP in Alberta. If the New Democrats Mirriam-Webster Dictionary is a could sway Alberta, then there is a government in which the supreme chance that the NDP will not only gain power is vested in the people and traction in Alberta federally but a wave exercised by them directly or indirectly could sweep through the nation. through a system of representation However, provincial and federal usually involving periodically held free elections can be very different and elections. even if a province is NDP they may not In Alberta this right was be federally, as transferring political exercised as the strongly Conservative province broke the mold and went on Kelly Running support from the province to the nation Observer Staff is not guaranteed. to do a complete 180 by electing, not I do feel that the younger even a Liberal government which is more central, but the left-wing NDP party by a generation in Alberta had a strong hand in facilitating change in the province. Many people landslide. One of the best headlines of an article I know in Alberta are aligned with that party. I read online was, “‘The Texas of Canada’ As young people are reminded the importance just elected a left-wing government.” The of exercising their right to vote, I feel like this writer likens Alberta to the ultraconservative may change the tides of Canada as typically Texas with their oil reserves and conservative more and more young voters find themselves in leanings... in fact this huge shift I believe is agreement with more left-wing parties like the unprecedented because not only did NDP win Liberals or New Democrats. No matter what your political views the election they gained a majority government. The question is how will this affect the are, it’s the importance of exercising the right province? Many people are already worried to vote that is important. People around the about it, I’ve spoken with friends who live in world stage uprisings and go to war in order Calgary.

It’s not a perfect system and not that the new Premier, Rachel Notley, is not overly extreme and that things weren’t really everyone will be happy with the end results, but it is better than many other systems out there. going well for the province anyway. Now with this complete 180 that Alberta We at least have a voice and a choice. So, regardless of where your political has done, what will it mean federally?

Seeing things differently . . .
Moms rule!
Wonderful women
by Kelly Running Observer Staff by Lynne Bell Observer Staff
Each week, Kelly and I usually pick a topic and debate the issue from opposing points of view. This time, we have declared a temporary truce in honour of Mother’s Day, because we both agree (and really, who can disagree?) that moms-especially our moms- rule. Mother’s Day is an occasion that can be both happy and heartrending. I am blessed beyond measure to have my darling mama in my life, but I have friends who aren’t so fortunate. However, I believe with all my heart that motherly love lives on as a very real force in all of our lives and the important lessons and examples that our mothers give us live on in ourselves and in the generations that follow. I tease my mom that I will miss her desperately when her real daughter lays claim to her (after that pesky hospital baby switch is finally resolved, all of these decades later...), because frankly, it seems that I am incapable of absorbing so many of her valuable skills and lessons. The one (!) Christmas turkey I cooked was prepared under her direct supervision, and I insisted on capturing photographic proof of this unprecedented event, because I suspect this may be a one-time only occurrence. I could go on about the many little things I’ll never do as well as she does (or even do at all), but I hope the big lessons took, and she’s still teaching me by example to be a better human. And yes, I know she’s got her work cut out for her! She’s a lady who is loyal, loving, and kind. She loves her entire family and she’s there for us all, again and again. When we were growing up, one little lesson I remember was her absolute insistence that my brother and I give a Valentine to every kid in our class. She didn’t want to see anyone left out, and she told us everyone deserved our respect and courtesy. My brother and I still talk about that one, and if we have any empathy, that’s where it came from. Right now, my mom is still teaching us by her unimpeachable example. During a time of life where the ideal is to slow down a bit and enjoy the fruits of her considerable labour, my mom is currently dealing with a pretty heartbreaking challenge of her own, but she’s carrying on with courage and fortitude. My mom has given her family an example of grit, grace under pressure, and great love. These words aren’t enough and one day isn’t enough, but thank you, Mom-and Happy Mother’s Day!
This week Lynne and I decided to do something a little bit different. We’re not writing a pro/con column for this edition, but instead with Mother’s Day having just passed we decided to honour the ladies in our lives who have made us into who we are today. My mom is a very loving woman and always puts my sister and me first, she would do anything for us and she has taught me a lot along with my dad. Lessons were learned growing up as she always encouraged us to read before bed when we were little. Whether she was reading to me or when I learned to read and would read to her, it was something that she encouraged in me. Although English or Language Arts was my least liked subject in school, I absolutely loved to read and I think the reason I did so well in school was because of this encouragement. In fact I’ve been trying to think about how I came to be a reporter and I would have to say it would be traced back to this. Both my parents are extremely hard working and have passed this down to me as well. When a job needs to be done, do it. Whether it was planting the garden or cutting the grass for hours in our farmyard, when it was time to do something you did it. Though I laugh at my mom when she cries in commercials, her compassion and love are unparalleled. She always puts other people first and enjoys spoiling the people she cares about. About a month ago I smiled as I remembered a small lesson she taught me. If you are given a container filled with goodies, when you return the container you can’t return it empty. I had been at a volleyball tournament and one of the parents allowed Eric and me to take some berries and snacks from the cooler as the day wound down. Taking the container home, I washed it, but didn’t have time to make anything to place in it to return to her. So, taking a page from my mom’s book I tried to think about something to fill it with. In the end
I wrote a note to the parent about how fantastic her family is and the awesome young lady she has who played for us this past year. Both of my grandmothers also had a lot to do with who I am today. Oma, my mom’s mom, is from Holland. She is an amazing woman who came to Canada as a young woman with her husband. They lived in a boxcar that had been converted into a home near Elbow for awhile before moving on. She had grown up during World War II in Europe and her inner strength is amazing. She’s not afraid to say what’s on her mind and simply tell it like it is. She says once you reach a certain point in your life you’ve earned this right. Oma is a very giving lady, you’ll be over visiting with her at her house and if you comment on something she just bought it’s placed into your hand and you’re told to take it home with you. She is the most generous woman. Granny was also an amazing lady. Last November she passed away, grandmas are very special people, so it’s been difficult thinking you’ll never see them again. I learned how to make rosettes and every time at Christmas I’d bring her some; she was always so proud when I brought them and the conversation followed while we ate a few were always of how patient you have to be when making rosettes because it literally takes forever to make a batch. She never had anything bad to say about anyone. When I went home for her funeral my parents showed me some of her writings. She wrote about everything in her life even writing that she sometimes has trouble expressing herself out loud, but that when she wrote everything flowed out of her. Although I don’t write a journal like she did, I do find I’m able to express myself more clearly through writing. These women have all influenced who I am today. They are the kindest, most generous ladies I know and I couldn’t be more proud to call them my family.

Saskota Baseball League opener coming May 19 Kelly Running Observer Staff
“Take me out to the ball game. Take me out to with the crowd. Buy me some peanuts and crackerjacks, I don’t care if I never get back. Let me root, root, root for the home team. If they don’t win it’s a shame, ahh. For it’s one, two, three strikes you’re out at the old ball game.” Spring has sprung and as always baseball is making a comeback again. Minor hockey has already started and soon we’ll see our local senior men’s teams out and about with the Saskota Baseball League schedule set to start on Tuesday, May 19. There are nine teams in this year’s league with Wawota, Lampman, Carlyle, Estevan, Oxbow, Arcola, Redvers, Kenossee, and Carnduff all taking part in the action. On May 19 Lampman will host Wawota, Estevan will host Carlyle, Arcola will host Oxbow, Kenosee will host Redvers, and Carnduff will have a bye. All games will start at 6:30 p.m. with the exception of those hosted in Estevan which will begin at 7:30 p.m. Action for Saskota will run on Tuesdays and Thursdays, beginning May 19 and running until Thursday, July 16, for regular play. The Harbourne Memorial Playoff tournament to be hosted in Kenosee will be held July 24 to 26, while the All Star Game this year is scheduled for Aug. 21 in Oxbow where the best of the northern teams in the league take on the best in the south. Other tournaments to be enjoyed throughout the year include those being held on Lampman Sports Weekend (June 6 and 7), a tournament in Wawota on June 13, and the Big Moose Tournament hosted in Carlyle and Kenosee July 3-5. So, “grab your sunflower seeds and lawn chairs and come join us at the ball diamond,” the Saskota League invites.

Town Council meets May 6 : Work on new subdivision to go ahead Lynne Bell Observer Staff
Construction Gee Bee Construction of Kipling will begin work shortly on a new residential subdivision south of Carlyle Avenue, at a cost of $1,056,075. This will include constructing roads, storm sewers, and water and sewer lines for 63 lots. At the request of R.M. 63, Carlyle Town Council will gather estimates regarding the cost of putting a low-flow water system
across Hwy #9 south. Property and Parks Council addressed the ongoing concern regarding all-terrain vehicles near Lions Park. The Town will soon be seeding grass in the area near the drainage ditch, and will be posting signs near the area. If this approach is not successful, council discussed other options, including the possibility of banning the use of all ATVs within town limits. In an effort to address correspondence from residents

concerned about the impact of the proposed walking path in Lions Park re: their privacy, as well as ecological concerns and worries about potential flooding, council agreed to forward the letters to the Carlyle and District Lions Club. This year’s property inspection report shows a marked improvement from last year, concerning the condition of properties within Carlyle from last year. However, many firepits do not meet the standard as stated in the town’s bylaws. Animal Complaints In response to a verbal report of a child being bitten by a dog, council discussed the best way to improve the town’s response to a dog complaint like this one. Council concluded that the best, most efficient way to respond to an incident like this is to immediately call the RCMP at 453-6707. The town has also received numerous complaints regarding cat feces in Carlyle’s play park, so will be putting out cat traps.
Fire Alderman John Brownlee has resigned from his position as Carlyle’s Deputy Fire Chief. Alderman Brian Romaniuk expressed his regret, saying,“You’ll be missed.” In response to a query regarding fire inspections, council stated that property fire inspections are carried out only at the town’s request. Medical After attending the Sun Country Health Region’s Estevan
meeting, Councillor Brian Romaniuk informed council that the town of Fillmore was losing its doctor and a staff member who performs X-rays and does blood work. Fillmore has requested that a staff member travel from Arcola once a week to perform these (non-physician) duties until a replacement is found. Rusty Relics Museum The town has agreed to cover the cost of utilities for the
Rusty Relics Museum, which it already does for similar community facilities, such as the library. 4G Coverage SaskTel has informed the town that it intends to upgrade its 4G network in Carlyle, in an effort to provide additional 4G wireless coverage by the end of June 2015. Conferences Assistant administrator Carrie Pelletier will attend a “De-Escalating Violent Situations” workshop, June 25, in Regina.

Nicole Andrew -
Letters from Africa
05.12.15 Another week has come and gone and I realize I’m 10 days away from heading home! I’m trying to prepare myself for all the good-bye’s I know are coming in the next week but I don’t know if I will ever be fully prepared for that. I’m beyond excited to get home, to catch up with family and friends but most importantly for me, I’m excited to bring the stories of this place and these people back home to enable and encourage people to be a part of it too! This place has taught me so many things that I couldn’t ever possibly write down in words, or show in pictures, or have enough time to tell all the stories, but my hope is that I can spend some time, combine the three and try my best to do it justice. I leave Kenya on May 22nd and will arrive at home the following evening, and after having a little bit of down time to get myself together after being gone for 4 months, I would like to invite anyone and everyone to come out to the Carlyle Memorial Hall on May 31st, anytime from 6:30 until, well, until the evening is over! Coffee and Dessert will be

provided for the evening and I would love to take this time to visit with everyone that has supported me in this journey, that has been reading my articles and my blog posts; that have seen my pictures and have been a part of this adventure with me.
As I prepare to come home, get my stories put together, pick and choose pictures to share and put together videos to show, if there are any questions, anything you’d like me to share specifically, things you would like to know more about, I would love to hear from you in these next few weeks and to see you come out and join me on the 31st! This write up will be brief and I apologize for that! This week so far has been busy, and the week ahead will be similar! But I truly hope you will accept this invitation and will see you all on the 31st! The countdown is on! See you all soon! Nicole

Stoughton Chamber of Commerce celebrates community Kelly Running Observer Staff
Recognizing the efforts of individuals and businesses within a community can often be overlooked, but the community of Stoughton celebrated those who have made a difference in the town by hosting their annual Stoughton Chamber of Commerce Business Recognition Night. The evening drew attention to the many amazing businesses and individuals in the community. There were two sets of awards for the evening; the first set were judged on by a panel and the second set were people’s choice, having been voted on by community members at various businesses in town. The first award, the Regens Disposal Business Enhancement Award, was given to the New Hope Pharmacy for their efforts in revitalizing their storefront. Chelsea and Hazel Schindel were honoured by the award. As Chelsea accepted he laughed about the events that led to the Schindels starting the business and what then led to the new storefront into existence: “Thank you very much. Eight years ago I was working in Estevan and a friend came over and asked, ‘Hey, have you ever thought about owning a pharmacy.’ I told him that no I was too old, but I checked it out and talked to Hazel. I told her ‘I think we should buy the store.’ So we did.” “One day we were walking past the store in the evening and Hazel, she’s the person with all the ideas, said that we should do something to the front. It was getting old and that night if the wind didn’t blow 80 km an hour and took the front of the store off!” The runner-up in this category was Vivid Crystal Tattoo Studio and Shoppe. The second award, the Town of Stoughton Community Involvement Award, for the business who gives back to the community the most went to the Stoughton Vet Clinic. Although Dr. Anne Kernaleguen, was unable to attend as she was on call, Lynn St. John accepted the award on her behalf explaining the importance of giving back to the community. “I’m sure you all know Dr. Anne, she was unable to be here tonight, but she is a very deserving winner and will be honoured by the award,” St. John
said. “She’s very interested in long term volunteer efforts. Thank you to the community for this.” Runner up in this category was Farrell Agencies who are also always willing to help in any way they can in the community. The third award decided on by the judging panel was the Sasktel Customer Service Award. This award was thoughtfully assessed with the Stoughton
should be, “If we don’t have it, we will get it for you because that’s how we work.” Chelsea and Hazel again took to the stage to accept their award, thanking the community for voting. “We believe in customer service and having our customers shop locally,” Hazel stated. They went on to acknowledge the numerous

Rory and Erin Clark were very humble in accepting the award, thanking the community profusely but emphasizing the fact that it is their amazing staff that has earned the award. In the first of the two community-voted awards, the R.M. Tecumseh’s Business of the Year award, was given to the New Hope Pharmacy for their courteous staff and their insurance that customers have choice. It was said that their motto

other businesses in the community, which all help to ensure Stoughton thrives. The final award for the evening, the SaskEnergy Volunteer of the Year award, involved the recognition of the winner and runner ups. Acknowledged for their efforts throughout the year were Reine Verbeem, Dorothy Knoch, and Danielle Hoffman. The winner of this year’s award, however, went to Erin Clark. Erin was speechless in receiving the honour and her husband, Rory, came on stage with her to explain that although Erin is extremely involved but that “Erin may be the Volunteer of the Year, but it takes a whole community.” The evening was very much enjoyed by those in attendance who laughed along with emcee Jason Farrell, enjoyed entertainment following the awards by the Wandering Magician, Doug Arden, Having earned the Business of the Year award and whose mouths as well as the Business Enhancement award the watered at the mere staff and owners of the New Hope Pharmacy were sight of the delicacies put together by the honoured by the award.

Helen Gladys (Allan) Luedtke 1922 - 2015 Helen, formerly of Arcola, Sask. passed away sur- rounded by her loving family in the Regina General Hospital on April 15, 2015 at the age of 93 years. Helen was born March 28, 1922 to Peter and Beatrice Allan, the youngest of 7 children and was raised on the family farm at Creelman, Sask. She attended the country school of Se- quin which was within a mile of their farm and then on to Creel- man and Heward for high school, followed by attending Normal School in Regina where she completed her teaching certificate. After receiving her certificate in 1942 she accepted a position at the Wabash School located 4 miles east of Willmar, where she taught for 1.5 years. Helen billeted at the Luedtke farm one mile south of the school, where she met her future husband Elmer. They were married in Regina at a double wedding ceremony with her sister in1944 and lived on the farm with a number of family members until they took over the homestead farm in 1947. Elmer and Hel- en raised five “wonderful” children (Kelvin, Lynne, Maureen, Bonnie and Dale). She took pride in her home and was an excellent seamstress and cook. The Luedtke farm was a second summer home to many nieces and nephews who experienced all the fun and some of the work on the farm and lots of music. They were ac- cepted as part of the family and have fond memories from that time. Helen loved gardening and was very proud of her flowers. She was active with the church and community events and really enjoyed the social part of playing cards and was very keen at Bridge, especially in the long cold winter months when neigh- bours would visit. Curling was an event she enjoyed and in later years as a spectator, even on TV. Garage and household auc- tion sales were a huge attraction for her and if she could stop for a visit to the casino would help to make her day. Having a good comfortable car and a new pair of leather shoes was highly val- ued and something her family knew about. She always main- tained a positive outlook and enjoyed life with an eager willing- ness to learn new things like starting to play the violin in her later years. After her family was raised, she was employed at Moose Mountain Lodge in Carlyle for 9 years which was enjoyable and her circle of friends grew much larger. In 1983, Elmer and Helen left the farm and moved to Arcola, where many of their Willmar area friends had already moved to, and as a result their circle of friends grew even larger. Ol’time music “jam sessions” contin- ued to be common place at their home when any of the musical family members and friends would visit. After Elmer passed away in 1995, Helen continued to live in Arcola till Sept 2012 when she moved the Collage Park Sr. Home in Regina. Al- though she missed her friends in Arcola area, she adapted quickly to the routine at the home, quickly made more friends, continued to play many card games and enjoy all the special entertainment and social times, like “happy hour” every Friday afternoon. Helen was predeceased by her parents Peter and Beatrice Al- lan, her husband Elmer of more than 50 years, her sister Marie, brothers, Donald, Andrew, Sam, Colin, son-in-law Don George and numerous brother and sister-in-laws. Helen is survived by her two sons, Kelvin (Theresa), Arcola; Dale (Wendy), Lloydminster. Three daughters, Lynne Currie, Regina, Maureen (Mark) Fischer, Medicine Hat; Bonnie (Clint) Clarke, Medicine Hat. Sixteen grandchildren and Fourteen great-grandchildren. 5 Sister-In-Laws, Kathryn (Creelman), Ruth (Regina), Adelia (Watrous), Evelyn (Calgary) and Doris (Vancouver). A celebration of Helen’s Life will be held on Friday, May 22, 2015 at 5:00 pm in the Prairie Place Hall in Arcola, with Reverend Jason Schultz and Retired Pastor Orville Kaminski officiating. All are welcome to attend including lunch afterwards and a social time with family and friends. Internment will be held at 2 pm the next day on Saturday, May 23, at the Wordsworth Trinity Lutheran Cemetery. If friends so desire, donations may be made to the Arcola Hos- pital.

Eltje Harmannus Degenhart October 16th, 1946 - May 8th, 2015 Eltje passed away on May 8th, 2015 at Royal Uni- versity Hospital in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan after having suffered a large stroke. While his passing was sudden and unexpected, his family was present at his bedside. His father, Nanno, and his mother, Afina, prede- cease him. He is deeply missed by his wife Mar- guerite, his daughter Alana (Gary), and son Nathan (Kit). His five grandchildren, Uma, Wolfgang, Nola, Nika, and Neve will particularly miss their “Opa” who was always able to make them laugh or smile with his stories and jokes. Also left to mourn are his sister, Diena (Lorne), his brother-in-law, Donald (Alice), his nephews and nieces (Carolyn, Andrew, Jeffery, Bruce, Janine), and further extended family. Eltje was born in Slochteren, Netherlands in 1946 and immigrat- ed to Canada in 1951. His family settled near Weyburn, Sas- katchewan and the first several years were times of extreme hardship. Eventually, the family moved into Weyburn where his father worked as a house painter. Following high school, Eltje attended the University of Regina and graduated with a Bachelor of Education with a major in Visual Arts. While in Regina, he studied under Ted Godwin, Joe Fafard, and Art McKay. Returning to Weyburn, Eltje worked as the art teacher at the Weyburn Comprehensive School for over 20 years. There, he devoted himself to the instruction and inspiration of many students and was very proud that several went on to have successful careers in the arts. While very busy as a teacher and as a father, Eltje always made time to continue working on his own art. After retiring from teaching, Eltje devoted himself fulltime to painting. He was ex- tremely prolific and produced a large body of works that resulted in several shows at galleries throughout Saskatchewan and Al- berta (most notably the Assiniboia gallery in Regina). At the time of his death, he was preparing for a show at the Rouge Gal- lery in Saskatoon. Eltje was a gifted conversationalist who was always eager to meet new people (as many surprised and unsuspecting strangers would discover). He loved to laugh and was quick to launch into a joke (usually at appropriate times). He holds the record for the longest retirement speech at the Weyburn Comprehen- sive High School. He built an iceboat (that he crashed), a sail- boat (that sunk), and two cabins (that are still standing at White Bear Lake). He loved art, music, movies, books, dogs, nature, wine, the Saskatchewan Roughriders, and good company. But most of all, he loved his family and friends. Donations, in lieu of flowers, may be sent to the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada. A funeral will be held in Weyburn at the Grace United Church on May 15th, 2015 at 2 pm. 52-1 Cabins

Glass Roots Smoke and Hemp Emporium arrives in Carlyle By Kelly Running A new business has moved onto Main Street, Carlyle. Located next to Cut N’ Curl, Genevieve Grossman has opened Glass Roots Smoke and Hemp Emporium. Grossman arrived in Carlyle two years ago with her husband, Wes, who grew up in the area. He had returned for a trucking job with Dunn Transport and the family eventually decided to relocate. “We love it here and our 12-year-old loves it because they can go ride their bike or walk over to a friend’s house, it’s different than the city,” Genevieve said. “It’s a great town, it really is.” After being here for two years Genevieve decided to make her dream job. “I woke up one morning and realized I didn’t enjoy going to work, so I thought I would take a chance,” Genevieve said. “Having lived here the last two years I saw an opportunity in the community.” “My husband has been a great support, but he was a little nervous about the store, everyone’s human.” As Genevieve spoke with The Observer customers came and went inspecting the new store and what it contained. “In Carlyle!” many exclaimed as they took
in their surroundings. Glass Roots Smoke and Hemp Emporium focuses on glass ware, hemp products such as socks, hats, and purses, lip balms, hemp based body products such as soap and lotions, air fresheners, incense, and the one which surprised the customers the most, an adult only corner. Genevieve is planning on bringing in more items including adult summertime games such as beer pong as well as E-cigarettes and juice by Buck Naked. “I’m getting in more novelties as well because there’s lots of bachelor and bachelorette parties, so the more items I can bring in the better,” she explained. Genevieve says that the business interested her as it was simply a fit for who she is: “I’ve always been into it [hemp products]. I’m a true hippy at heart. Hemp isn’t well known for its many uses and the people who do know about it are faithful to it.” In addition to the items she is currently carrying, Genevieve is planning on bringing in local art work and music. “I’m looking to start commissioning First Nation art work from the area including paintings, jewelry, anything really. I’m interested in promoting

Carlyle’s Country Garden Greenhouse celebrates 15th year Lynne Bell Observer Staff
Carlyle’s Country Garden Greenhouse opened for its 15th year of business on Thursday, May 7, and owners Allan and Sylvia Thomas say, “It’s been pretty non-stop since we opened the doors today.” Along with Mother’s Day shoppers, the couple says that many of their regular customers returned for yet another year, eager to get their gardens ready for another prairie spring and summer. “We really appreciate their support,” says Sylvia. “Our customers come back year after year. Our customers come from our local area and even from Estevan, Regina, and Brandon. We get a lot of people from the lakes, too.” The couple specializes in Saskatchewan Zone 3 perennials and shrubs, which are perfectly suited to local growing conditions. “They can bring their planters in and we’ll custom design something for them,” says Sylvia. “Or if they like, we’ll work on it with them.”
“Our newest item is a combination of flower plants in one pot called ‘Confetti Gardens,’ she adds. “We also sell veggies and herbs, and a few other gardening items, planters, plant food, things like that. And we also have gift certificates, too.” The greenhouse season is short, but full. “We’re open until July 15,” says Allan. “That’s if we don’t sell out of trees, shrubs, and flowers like we did last year.” “We couldn’t do any of it without our staff,” says Sylvia. “Besides Allan and I, we have 12 parttimers. We’ve got a really excellent team. They are the ones who have helped us to build a really beautiful place.” “And we wouldn’t be here without our customers. We’re so grateful for the support of them all.” Country Garden Greenhouse is located at 112 Railway Avenue, Carlyle. Phone: (306)-577-8299 Hours: Monday-Saturday 9 a.m.-6 p.m., Sunday 1:30 p.m.-5:30 p.m.
Alida News Submitted by Edel Cowan Joyce and Jackie George (Redvers) visited at the Cowan farm on Wednesday, May 6 and enjoyed a delicious pork-rib dinner with Gray, Edel, John and Tim Cowan. Home visiting her mother Shelly Cowan on Sunday, May 10 for Mother’s Day was Kelsey Rydberg and friend Steven Wilson (Estevan). In the afternoon on Sunday, May 10 Edel Cowan met and visited with her cousin Gary Nelson and his wife Kathy O’Shea (Surrey, BC) for an hour. They had come to Redvers to visit for a couple of days with his Uncle Arthur Nelson and with other family members. A very delicious Mother’s Day Breakfast Brunch was held at Marcy’s Diner on Sunday, May 10. There were 65 in attendance during the brunch hours. The lucky mothers who won the draws were Brenda Lemieux – the rose plant and ShirleyAnn McKinna – a solar light. Congratulations ladies. Our thoughts and prayers are with Chic Girard as well as with his wife, Dot and the family. Chic is a patient in the Moosomin Hospital. We are thinking
of you all at this time – take care. It is a long weekend this coming week (May 16-18) – on Monday it is Victoria Day (Queen’s Birthday). This is usually the first weekend for the camping season to officially begin as many head out with/or to their campers or cabins – hopefully the weather will co-operate and everyone can enjoy the holiday. Another thing to make note – is that Swimming Lessons are being scheduled at the Alida Pool. For further information and to register please text Cheryl at 306-452-7098. Seeding in the area is moving right along and most farmers are trying their best to get as much done as possible before the weather forecast changes to more rain. That is one thing that is not needed right now – sure hope that it will hold off for at least another week or so then I believe most farmers would be done. If one receives the rain that is being called for I’m afraid it may put an end to seeding – the land is so saturated and has defiantly reached its water level in most areas. Continued good luck fellas. 15053SCC02

Amy of Grenfell, Annie Easton of Kenosee Lake, Janice Wilson of Wawota, Cathy Hoffart of Kenosee Lake. Last week George and Lorraine Smyth were in Regina—they had the privilege of watching three granddaughters taking part in the dance recital—Davin Smyth of Lampman, Taylor Istace of Southey and Clair Henninberg of Regina, each of them doing very well in their dance. Elmer and Jeanne Molnar attended the funeral of their brotherin-law Dell Halbert, husband of Mary (Jeanne`s sister) at Weyburn on Wed., May 6th. George and I are very happy to have our neighbor Enid LaRonge back in her own home after being away since Dec. 18, 2014 due to a bad fall on ice in Kipling - between hospitals, nursing home and staying with her niece in Wolseley, family members spent the weekend with her. May 9th was a great day for women from many areas of the communities when they met at Kipling Community Centre for a fun day --`Women`s Health Day`. I would guess there were at least 130 ladies plus all the volunteers enjoying the day.
