components of the transition plan includes focusing the company’s asset base by making “significant upstream asset divestitures”, a net debt reduction of $1 billion by the end of 2019, and a reduced workforce which will save expenses of over $50 million.

The company carried out a comprehensive review of their asset base, business strategy and organizational structure, and have identified their Saskatchewan assets of Viewfield, Shaunavon and Flat Lake as key focus areas.

A number of key criteria were considered, including returns, scalability, free cash flow potential and the ability to improve commodity market access.

These areas, plus resource plays in the Uinta Basin in the U.S. and East Shale Duvernay, accounted for about 70 per cent of Crescent Point’s second quarter production for 2018.

Crescent Point is considering the sale of certain infrastructure assets, which could lead Ad Specs to partnerships and 1/2 Page Ad development of future 9.875”w x 7.86”h infrastructure projects.

“I want to thank all of our staff for their hard work and contributions over the years. This restructuring is difficult, however we needed to adjust the organization to match our current business needs. We are all focused on executing our transition plan and are excited about Crescent Point’s future,” said Bryksa in a statement.

The plan includes an ongoing review of operating and capital costs, which will include implementation of field automation to increase

efficiencies.

The company’s guidance for 2018 is unchanged, with the plan for daily average production of 177,000 barrels of oil equivalent and $1.775 billion in capital expenditures.

In the second half of 2018, they are planning on capital spending of $750 million, with plans of spending $1.55 billion to $1.6 billion in 2019 on capital expenditures, with a goal of daily average production ranging from 175,000 to 180,000 boe.

How many jobs will the Line 3 program create?

The Line 3 Replacement = 24,494 jobs.

The Line 3 Replacement Program is expected to generate almost 25,000 direct, indirect and induced jobs in Canada. The project is creating significant employment opportunities for local and Indigenous individuals and businesses.

Here in Saskatchewan, approximately 9,175 jobs will be created over the project lifespan.

> Here are some ways Saskatchewan communities will benefit from the Line 3 Replacement: Stimulating local economies With pipeline construction workers in town, local businesses like hotels, restaurants, campgrounds, stores, movie theaters and recreational businesses will all benefit.

Back to the usual

By Linda Wegner For me, everything changed over the course of the past several weeks: various Fall activities have begun; school has started and volunteer organizations are gearing up for autumn and winter activities; board meetings are chugging back into action; tomatoes and cucumber crops (as incredibly abundant as they’ve been) are showing signs of their impending death; and, days and nights are inching closer to each other by the hour. To make it more dramatic, weeks of blistering heat and the resultant tinder-dry conditions and forest fires are thankfully being moderated by rain and substantially lower temperatures (at least in this part of the country).

It’s almost as if we’re getting back to normal.

Back to the usual or “normal” isn’t always easy, partly because things aren’t always what they appear to be on the surface. I’ve been thinking a lot about the challenges we face throughout our lives.

While it’s easy to see the external pressures brought about by busyness and weather conditions, we humans have been conditioned to try to hide our internal pain. Things such as diminished physical or emotional strength, loneliness, questioning our sense of value or fear over facing new challenges are just some of them.

This week a number of Scripture verses have leapt out at me and I’ve been mulling them over them. I’m privileged to share them with you and I trust they will encourage you.

“The Lord directs the steps of the godly, He delights in every detail of their lives.” (Psalm 37:23) “He Himself has said, ‘I will never leave you nor forsake you.’” (Hebrews 13:5) “Give your burdens to the Lord and He will take care of you.” (Psalm 55:22) And what more could we ask than this: “Keep me as the apple of your eye; hide me in the shadow of Your wings.” (Psalms 17:8)

On September 18th Federated Co-op has decided to partner with Southern Plains Co-op to make a difference in our community.

OXBOW

ESTEVAN

CARLYLE

On this day, Federated Co-op will donate $.05 per litre sold at the Oxbow C-store to the Bow Valley Jamboree. This donation will be matched by the Southern Plains Co-op, which means that $.10 per litre will be donated to the cause. These funds will help to continue to improve the festival held in July in the Bow Valley Regional Park. The Bow Valley Jamboree and their Volunteer committee believe that the commitments to the arts are vital to help grow a community. The Jamboree is an opportunity for anyone to come and enjoy a day of fun and music from both local and musicians across Canada. The diverse set of musicians and groups ensures that anyone can take part and enjoy their time at the festival.

On this day, Federated Co-op will donate $.05 per litre sold at the Kensington C-Store and 4th Street C-Store in Estevan to Canadian Pediatric Stroke Support Association.

This will then be matched by the Southern Plains Co-op, which means that $.10 per litre will be donated.

These funds help Saskatchewan families living with the effects of pediatric stroke. Barb Fornwald who is the Hardware Manager at the Agro Centre on Kensington has a grandson Brenden who has suffered from a stroke. Meghann Lischka his mother shared her story. Brenden suffered his stroke at just 1 year old, exactly 1 week after his first birthday. He suffered a right side hemiparesis. It affected his left arm and leg. Brenden has been such a trooper and gained back use of his arm and hand, but uses and wears an AFO on his left foot to help with his dropped foot. But this has never slowed him down! He is now 11 years old and he can still play and loves hockey, shows cattle in 4H, and loves to swim, play golf, and be with his friends! We will never know the exact cause of his stroke, but are forever grateful on the amazing recovery and determination he has had to overcome obstacles! I love my Pediatric Stroke Survivor with all my heart! We are absolutely honored to partner with Southern Plains Co-op and the Canadian Pediatric Stroke Support Association, a nonprofit organization, to raise funds and bring awareness to Pediatric Stroke, so that other families don’t feel alone and can find the help and support they need!

On this day, Federated Co-op will donate $.05 per litre sold at the Carlyle C-Store in Carlyle to the Carlyle Elementary School.

This will then be matched by the Southern Plains Coop, which means that $.10 per litre will be donated.

The Carlyle Elementary School is in need of updating their playground equipment. Several structures have been removed due to safety issues, therefore the structures need to be replaced. The entire community of Carlyle utilizes the playground, it is not just used during school hours. New playground structures would give the kids the opportunity to have fun playing and exploring on this new equipment for many years.

We thank you for your SUPPORT!

Tim, Shelly and Ainsley Cowan travelled to Brandon for the day on Monday where they did some shopping.

Bill and Kathy Anthony enjoyed a holiday trip with members of their family.

sincerest sympathies to the Soroka and Poirier families of the death of Joanne Soroka on Aug. 30 at the age of 56 years while in the Regina Pasqua Hospital. She was predeceased by her parents David and Margaret Poirier. She will be remembered by her husband Robert, children Derek (Katy) and Katrina (Corey Rocha) and grandchildren as well as her siblings, many nieces, nephews, cousins and in-laws. Condolences are extended to all other family members and close friends.

Her funeral mass was celebrated Sept. 6 at RC Church, Belegarde.

Jeff Cowan stopped in at the Cowan farm for a couple of days (Aug. 31-Sept. 1) where he visited with family and friends before heading back to Regina.

Margaret Peet visited in Regina over the long weekend with her family and attended her nephew’s wedding on Sept. 1. Then she joined Lynette and Wendal on Sunday to attend the football game – Riders vs Winnipeg.

Lynette Peet and Wendal went to Moose Jaw on Sept. 1 to settled Wendal in to his new residence where he will to begin SIAST following the long weekend.

Shelly Cowan and daughter Ainsley visited with her parents Myron and Orlys Nilsen and sister Dicie Sauer (all of Minot) they were camped over at Moose Creek Regional Park for a few days during the

long weekend. They all travelled to Estevan on Sept. 2 to visit granddaughter Kelsey’s store, Soul Hideout, also visited with granddaughter Lacie Nilsen for a while and later came by the Cowan farm to watch Tim do some combining.

Murray and Adam Cowan, Estevan spent Sept.

2 at the Cowan farm and enjoyed the day riding their quads, checking out the wildlife in the area, as well as watching the harvesting progress along.

Faye Walker attended the retired teacher’s “To Hell with the Bell” meeting and meal on Sept. 4 at the White Bear Casino. Later in the day she left for Saskatoon where she would visit with her family, daughter Deidra, Jeff Nichel and granddaughters Olivia, Abby, Claire and Piper. She also had a dental appointment to attend and returned home Sept. 9.

You have probably noticed the ads for nominations for the positions of councillors for the municipalities these past couple of weeks. If you’re interested in serving on your local government, please make sure to get your nomination papers in.

It will soon be a very busy time in and around the local rinks with different activities being organized. Not only for sports events, such as skating, hockey, curling and tournaments but other events such as Haunted House tours, Craft sales and other

fundraising events.

Just keep your eyes and ears open for dates and events happening near your area in the near future. Then before one realizes it the drama clubs will also be getting started for their next event. These events all help to keep your community surviving and busy – please remember to get involved, if interested someone locally can point you in the right direction for information and where to go.

Your help of any kind is always appreciated.

Most of the farmers had a couple of days rest as we were blessed with some scattered showers big and small which of course put a stop to combining, but as I sit here Monday morning the guys here are hoping to get back out in the field this afternoon.

QB shuffle dominates NFL off-season

Bruce Penton

It might take a casual fan of the National Football League until U.S. Thanksgiving to get clarity on which quarterbacks went where in the biggest QB shuffle offseason in recent memory.

Added to the carousel of veteran quarterbacks getting new addresses is a handful of fuzzy-cheeked QBs right out of college who are all projected stars (at least by the teams that chose them in the draft). History tells us, though, that the success rate of college QBs moving into the NFL is not that great.

So let’s forget about the big QB names who stayed put, such as Brady, Rogers, Ryan, Brees, Wilson, Big Ben, etc., and concentrate on those who moved, and who moved in.

Kirk Cousins was the biggest ‘name’ player to move, signing as a free agent with Minnesota Vikings after five years with Washington.

The Cousins signing allowed the Vikings to go into 2018 with none of the three QBs they had on their 2017 roster: Case Keenum signed with Denver as a free agent; Sam Bradford was a free-agent signee in Arizona; and Teddy Bridgewater was traded to New York Jets, and later dealt to New Orleans, where he’ll back up Drew Brees.

To fill the Cousins void in Washington, the Redskins acquired longtime Kansas City quarterback Alex Smith.

The Chiefs deemed him

• Brad Rock of the Deseret News: “LA Gear is trying to block the Chargers from using anything that includes the letters LA in the name.

expendable because they believe Pat Mahomes, a second-year player, is ready for stardom.

Tyrod Taylor, who had moments of glory for Buffalo, is suiting up with Cleveland Browns thanks to an off-season trade, and he’ll apparently start ahead of No. 1 draft pick Baker Mayfield. Meanwhile, A.J. McCarron, who was acquired by Buffalo from Cincinnati prior to the draft, was shuffled off to Oakland prior to the season. Nathan Peterman will start for Buffalo, and college prospect Josh Allen will back him up. Bills’ fans have their fingers crossed.

All eyes will be on the five college quarterbacks who were the stars of April’s draft. Mayfield, as mentioned, will be the backup in Cleveland. Sam Darnold, from USC, is the starter for the Jets. Josh Allen will get a lot of sideline time in Buffalo. Josh Rosen is in Arizona, and will be the backup for Bradford, with Cardinals’ fans hoping the two can replace Carson Palmer, who retired after the 2017 season after 15 years in the league.

And versatile Lamar Jackson was picked by Baltimore Ravens, who with Joe Flacco behind centre have no quarterback worries.

Every team with a new quarterback has high hopes as the season begins. History tells us those hopes usually don’t take long to get deflated.

• Dwight Perry of the Seattle Times: “Odell Beckham Jr. of the New York Giants says his superstar status makes him feel like a ‘zoo animal.’ Especially the part where the Giants ignore the warnings and feed him $95 million.”

Quote of the Week... ““How beautiful the leaves grow old.

How full of light and color are their last days.”

Politicians wrong to pick Trump over Trudeau on trade

By Murray Mandryk There’s very little we can do about the trade problems at the international level that are so critical to us.

The best we can hope for is that these problems are not made worse at the national or even at the provincial level by politicians eager to score local political points.

The key to this would be for our politicians to not get caught up in games and support the idea that we do need to find a solution.

In that regard, a lot of our politicians need to do better. They need to think about how their politicking may cost us in the long run.

This is not to say that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau deserves a free pass for his handling of the North America Free Trade Agreement and certainly not for the botched handling of the Trans Mountain pipeline that he purchased from Kinder-Morgan, but can’t now get approval to build.

That said, let’s understand there will be a chance for Canadian voters to exercise their frustrations with the Trudeau Liberal government at the polls in a year from now.

And there are couple of other things we need to recognize.

As suggested by provincial Trade and Export Development Minister Jeremy, there really isn’t an issue as important to Saskatchewan as trade.

“We need to get a deal. This is incredibly important for our economy, which is probably the most export-dependent in the entire country, and we’ve been concerned about a pattern we’ve been seeing — moving backward on market access, moving backward on trade access, not moving forward,” Harrison recently told the Leader-Post’s David Fraser.

All politicians, including Harrison, who does have a penchant for seeing the world through the political lens first, need to keep this foremost in mind.

Second, we need to respect that Canadian of all political stripes, Conservatives like former interim leader Rona Ambrose and Liberals like Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland, are working exceedingly hard at getting a NAFTA deal with the U.S. that works in the interests of all Canadians.

This is how it should be, for there are just some issues that are bigger than the mundane partisanship politics.

There are just times when politicians, pundits and everyone else have to make a pronounced statement that declares their country comes before their politics.

This absolutely must apply to the NAFTA talks.

And that should now be blatantly obvious to everyone after the story late last month in which U.S. President Donald Trump made it know to journalists with Bloomberg News in off-the-record comments (first reported by the Toronto Star) that any deal reached would be “totally on our terms” and that Canadians would have “no choice” out of fear of tariffs on automobiles.

“Off the record, Canada’s working their ass off.

And every time we have a problem with a point, I just put up a picture of a Chevrolet Impala,” Trump is reported to have said, referring to car made at a Canadian GM plant.

Yet despite confirmation of Trump’s unfair belligerence that surely must be having an effect on the tactics of the U.S. negotiators handpicked

by Trump, we have seen Canadian pundits blame Trudeau for the supposed failure in negotiation.

Even worse, we have seen Conservative politicians attempt to use this opportunity to score political points, the worse case of which was likely Saskatchewan Senator David Tkachuk appointed by former Progressive Conservative prime minister Brian Mulroney 28 years ago for the sole purpose of passing a harmonized goods and services tax.

Sadly, some Conservatives have eagerly repeated and supported Tkachuk’s position.

This is a massive disservice to the nation.

There are times when we simply need our politicians to be better.

Heart of the Moose Mountains

Taking an eraser to the past Our oldest daughter has lived away from home for several years but has a fair amount of belongings in what she insists is still her bedroom. So it happens occasionally she will wonder if an item she is looking for might still be with us.

After a recent call I went in search of a book she had read in My Outlook high school and now wanted to Shelley Luedtke read again. In looking for that title I smiled when I came across the “Little House” series of books on her shelf. The stories of the pioneering Ingalls family written by daughter Laura were read again and again when I was a child and I was so excited to share them with my own daughters years later--even though some would suggest I shouldn’t.

A trip to South Dakota summers ago took us to the town of De Smet which is the area where several of the books are set. You can wander their homestead, tour the house that Pa built, spend time reading documents and looking through items belonging to family members, and even visit the cemetery where several are buried.

The books have not been without controversy over the years. There is discussion over the amount of editing that may have taken place by colleagues and editors; even suggesting the work of a ghost writer. Yet this has been disproven by other researchers. There is also the problem of chronology in some of the books since Laura was actually younger in real life than portrayed. However her own daughter indicated this was a publisher’s decision since they didn’t think the memories of a younger child would ring true. Along the way some places she lived were skipped over so the timeline could catch up.

But at their heart, the books tell the stories of a family who, like many others, settled the land, built homes, started families, fought fires, experienced droughts, served on local governments and built communities. They are Laura’s stories, set primarily in the 1870’s, in language and vocabulary in use at

the time. And that’s the problem. The Association for Library Service to Children used to give out an honour called the Laura Ingalls Wilder award. As of June 2018 it, like so many buildings, roadways and statues, has been removed and renamed.

The problem with what Laura Ingalls Wilder wrote, and what prompted the stripping of her name, is her portrayal of Native Americans. The vocabulary used is derogatory and demeaning. When you read it the language shocks. As it should, and still should. The author was writing what she knew and heard as a child, describing the perceptions as they were. It was not a sociological treatise. It was storytelling at a time when, regrettably, this was the language used. Was it offensive? Absolutely! Dreadful in its depiction? Without question. But to now try and keep us from seeing these words only serves to whitewash the historical record. An attempt to shield future generations from what was spoken in the past, or a desire to protect those who are offended today, is to do a disservice to an understanding of our history. It is ugly to confront--but it needs to be confronted.

Other incidents in her books were written about very differently than they would be in current literature. Her husband’s illness, their inability to earn a living for several years, the death of a newborn son, and the loss of their home following an accidental fire set by their daughter are incredibly harsh setbacks that a writer today would delve into far more deeply. But writing in her time she spoke of them in the way her contemporaries would.

Stripping our books, buildings and bridges from the truth of what used to be takes away our ability to recognize the mindset from which we’ve come and where we are now. Trying to sanitize the historical record takes away from its reality and it becomes a hindrance to our understanding of what used to be.

We need to acknowledge the past if we are to understand the present. Supporting the keeping of history is not equivalent to agreeing with it. We want to ensure when we reach into the bookshelf we will find portrayals of what truly was, not what we may wish it had been. That’s my outlook.

Managing Your Money: Taking a vacation is good for your health Americans may have a reputation for being a nation of workaholics but they’re not alone. In 2016, Canadians left an average of three unused vacation days on the table, according to Expedia1. That represents nearly 31 million unused vacation days in 2016 alone.

While leaving a few left over vacation days may not seem like a big deal, research shows that not taking holidays can be bad for your health.

One study, by the Journal of the American Medical Association, found that men who take frequent annual vacations were 32 percent less likely to die from heart disease as people who didn’t take any vacation2.

In another study, it was discovered that women who took vacation once every six years or less were about eight times more likely to get coro-

nary heart disease or have a heart attack than women who took at least two vacations a year3. A lack of vacations can also increase stress, depression and anxiety, too.

Unfortunately, many people would rather stay at work, in part because they’re too busy to leave or they think that taking time off could hurt their jobs, though there’s little proof that vacations kill careers.

So what can you do to ensure you get away?

Plan early Schedule your holidays for the coming six to 12 months and immediately block those days in your calendar – then stick to it. Don’t expect to ever find the perfect time to get away, just plan your days well in advance so that you have enough time to prepare for your time out of office.

Don’t be afraid to delegate

Paws & Claws

Many people don’t want to burden their colleagues with extra work while they’re away.

They may even fear losing out on a raise or a promotion if they let someone else do their job. However, a research study by the U.S. Travel Association showed that people who took fewer than 10 of their vacation days per year had a 34.6% likelihood of receiving a raise or bonus in a three-year period of time. Comparatively, people who took more than 10 of their vacation days had a 65.4% chance of receiving a raise or bonus.

Pay yourself first If you’re self-employed or receive holiday pay on every cheque instead of paid days off, it can be difficult to put that money aside to fund your time off. Consider setting up an automatic transfer from your chequing to your savings account so that when holiday

time comes, you don’t take a financial hit.

In the end, the key is to make your vacation time a priority. It will pay off when you return to work refreshed and refocused.

How to prepare for your pet’s euthanization

Does your aging pet have a hard time walking, eating or doing his business? Does he whine constantly or no longer react to your voice? Has he become become but a shadow of his former self? If so, you may have started to think about having him put down.

Here are a few tips to help you prepare for this trying event.

Vet’s opinion Always start by having your pet examined by a veterinarian. He or she won’t be able to make the decision for you but will at least be able to provide an accurate assessment of your pet’s health. This

will confirm whether any type of treatment (medication, surgery, special diet) might be viable, or if euthanasia is the only option. Getting the opinion of a trained professional is the best way to be at peace with your decision.

A gentle procedure Veterinarians are meticulous in ensuring the euthanasia procedure is fast and painless. It’s required that the responsibility be carried out in conditions that minimize the animal’s anxiety. Respect and compassion are always top-of-mind for the specialists charged with this delicate

task.

Should you be present?

Whether or not you choose to witness the procedure is entirely up to you.

That said, many vets report that pets whose owners are present are typically calmer when receiving the injection.

Palliative care If your vet confirms that treatment is no longer an option for your pet but you don’t feel ready to go through with euthanasia, inquire about palliative care services. These can prolong the life of your pet somewhat while minimizing pain and suffering.

Wildcats win volleyball tournament

By Laura Kish Kipling School’s Senior Boys Magyar Volleyball team hosted a tournament on Friday and Saturday with six teams entered including the host team Kipling Magyars, Montmartre Eagles, Wawota Wildcats, Cowessess Cougars, Bert Fox Bison and Vibank Vipers.

Kipling Magyars (coached by Mel Gesell, Darrell Beattie and Ashley Hengen) includes team members: #2 Carter Beattie, #3 Logan

McCarthy, #5 Bryson Andres, #6 Kaiden Lyons, #7 Burke Lyons, #8 Kurtis Doud, #10 Shawn Puffalt, #11 Michael Stanley, #12 Hayden Scott-McCarthy and #13 Dawson DeDecker.

Spectators were wowed by the excellent volleyball action throughout the two day tournament.

Standings at the end of the round robin: 1st Kipling Magyars, 2nd Bert Fox Bison, 3rd Montmartre Eagles and 4th Wawota Wildcats.

The bronze medal match came down to Kipling vs Montmartre with Kipling winning 25-17 and 25-16.

Gold medal final was a match between Bert Fox Bison and Wawota Wildcats with very close games. Wawota Wildcats took the gold medal with scores of 2125, 25-17 and 17-15.

“I believe our tournament this past weekend was a huge success.

It has been a few years since the Senior Boys team has held a home tournament, so it was nice for the boys to kick off the season playing at home - and playing extremely well nonetheless!” comments Mel Gesell, one of the coaches of the Kipling Magyars.

“The Kipling Senior Boys team is going to have a very exciting season, if this first tournament is any indication. The boys played and performed like they have been practicing for months already, and we only have three practices under our belt!” adds Gesell.

“Kipling placed first

“It was really surprising to see volleyball of this calibre from so many teams this early in the season. Not only were the other teams full of skill, but they were also full of respect; for their opponents as well as our officials. We will be coming across many of these teams in our next tournaments to come - next weekend being the University of Regina Cougars Classic!” comments Gesell.

“Huge thanks go out to everyone who helped

out to make this tournament a success, and a very important thank you goes out to Susan Hengen who officiated our tournament and did an amazing job of it!” says Gesell.

“I thought the quality of volleyball was very

high for the first tournament of the year,” comments Riley Riddell, coach of the Wawota Wildcats. “It was great to get back into the swing of things, as the boys have been really looking forward to this season. It was nice to get

everyone into the games and watch our younger guys improve. We have a lot of work to do as the round robin indicated, but we can take a lot of positives from our semi-final game against Kipling and final game against Bert Fox.”

Johanna Maria Catherina Truman Truman - With tears in our eyes, and love in our hearts we say goodbye to our beloved mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, Kay as she passed peacefully on to heaven on September 1st, 2018 in Brooks, Alberta. Johanna Maria Catherina Vreys was born and raised in Manor, Sk. area and resided there with her parents and siblings. After his return from WWII, she met and married George Truman in 1948.

They settled in Wauchope, Sk. to begin their married farm life. With her strong work ethic, Mom worked tirelessly side by side with Dad and helped with all aspects of life on the farm, particularly, her huge garden, cooking, baking, canning and yes, raising seven children. She entered baking at the local fair for twenty �ive years and received many red ribbons for her cooking excellence. We believe she was the inventor of “multi-tasking”. George and Kay spent more than 30 years farming and being neighbors in numerous community events until they retired to Redvers in 1979. Mom then took on the role of play school teacher and loved her interaction with the “littles” ful�illing a dream of hers as a young girl. When Mom turned 90 she moved to Brooks to be closer to more of her children. Thank you to the Brooks Long Term care Dr.’s and staff and companion Hedwig for the special care over the last few years. Mom’s best accomplishments have been the success and love that �lourished in her family. She was the most generous supporter of all that they did and although she will be dearly missed, her legacy will continue to live within them and cherished in their hearts forever. She was one of a kind, and most importantly, she was ours. Kay was predeceased by her parents Antoon and Anna Vreys, husband George, sisters, Annie and Nellie and brother Jack. She is survived by her seven children – Sharon Sangster of Saskatoon; Loretta (Dennis) Bouchard of Brooks, Wayne (Bonnie) Truman of Redvers, Sk. Nelda (Ed) Didychuk of Winnipeg, Lorraine (Gord) Barr of Atlanta, Tim (Paulette) Truman of Brooks, and Tammy Truman of Calgary; she also leaves behind 15 grandchildren; 15 great grandchildren and numerous nieces and nephews, sister Louise Bailey of Rosetown, Sk. and sister-in-law Jean Vreys of Mary�ield, Sk..

Funeral Mass was celebrated at Our Lady of Fatima RC Church in Redvers, SK. on Saturday, September 8th at 2:00 PM. Rev. Wilfred B. Calinawan Celebrant. A family graveside followed at Redvers Cemetery. In memory of Catherine, if friends desire, memorial tributes may be made to a Memory Care Facility of one’s choice.

Irene Husband had 20 members of her family, including: Larry and Marion, Thomas and Lilliam, Gerald, Kristine and Miles, Cathy and Kevin and the Currie’s from Carlyle. Next day Ruth Dennis’ Celebration included: Neil and Barbara; Brad Denis and Lynsey Hnatuk; Josephine Gates, Jean and Audrey McVicar, Myrele Chambers, Ryerson and Gwen Dennis, Estevan.

Leanne Jackson brought Aunt Alice Chaput back from Moosomin Hospital. Joe and Shirley Blaise visited her. Maxine Patron visited Grace Toms.

Imagine having babies born at home in the middle of harvest! That didn’t crop up in any of our Harvest Memories at Circle of Friends.

Ralph remembered sheltering from a storm, age 3, in a big tractor tire. Freda told of the steam

engine, which tooted to hurry up the next load of sheaves. Jessie remembered a white horse which lost its tail, caught in the drive belt of the thresher.

One crew boss demanded lunch or a meal in the field every three hours.

Fred told of the rust year, when wheat was only worth 26 cents a bushel; but they made their payment on the land. At 9-13-13-W2 there was only one load of wheat sheaves, so the machine came to blow the straw into the loft. Little Allan was given a grease gun to operate. He came into to dinner: Wow! Chicken! This is just about as good as Christmas. My mother and I knew there was part of a wagon load of seed for next year. None for the elevator. Someone asked, “How did you manage?” “We did without.”

DRILLING REPORT

Friday, September 14, 2018

OILFIELD DIRECTORY

School zones have changed a lot in the last decade, says CAA Today, nearly three quarters of students are driven to school, which means there has been a significant increase in vehicle traffic to school zones – bringing with it more pollution and more unsafe driving behaviours. The safety of our children, and all road users, in school zones is a top priority for CAA Saskatchewan.

There are existing dangerous behaviours in school zones as documented in a 2016 CAA poll: • 30% of drivers reported witnessing a near miss or collision in a school zone, more than half of which involved a child.

• Nearly half of Canadians say they witnessed distracted driving in a school zone.

• 4 out of 10 Canadians say there are more unsafe driving practices in school zones today than in the past.

• 64% of Canadians say they have witnessed speeding in school zones.

Tips for improving safety in school zones: • Keep to the posted speed limit, or slower, and note the hours of duration. A slower vehicle speed of just a few kilometres per hour considerably increases the chances of survival for a pedestrian struck by a vehicle.

• Be alert. Drivers need to be aware of the busyness of a school zone – children cycling or walking across the street - a school bus that’s about to stop other vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists on the road. It’s important to eliminate distracted driving: Please put away all communications devices.

• Help reduce risks for children. It might seem obvious, but some

people forget that children need to exit the car on the sidewalk side, not the traffic side. Younger children also need adults or older siblings to help them cross the street as their field of vision is limited.

• Set up a CAA School Safety Patrol.

Contact the CAA Saskatchewan School Safety Patrol Coordinator for details. The benefits are immense: A patrol improves safety in and around the school and it’s a fantastic way for

older students to learn responsibility.

• Leave home earlier to save time; that way you’ll be in less of a rush as you get near the school.

• Drop the kids off a little farther from school and have them walk with an older sibling or adult the rest of the way. Some schools have set up drop-off zones in safe locations so check with your school administrator. Visit caask.ca/ schoolzonesafety for further information.
