Clara Callan by Richard B Wright
The thought provoking story of two sisters separated by more than distance, the most surprising thing about this novel might just be that it was written by a man. Virtually all of the characters in the pages of Clara Callan are female and their experiences, though varying from the wealthy and eccentric lesbian screenwriter to the proper and understated small-town schoolteacher, are distinctly those of women in the 20th century. The context of depression-era workers issues and the culminating tensions in Europe are just the backdrop for all that happens in Clara and Nora’s lives,
two sisters set on different journeys through this world. While Clara stays in rural Ontario, living alone and approaching spinster - status in her village, Nora becomes a national voice on radio dramas from studios in New York City. Wright portrays the fascinating lives of this pair and through it all explores themes of faith, hope and community in a book that received no shortage of awards and commendations. While it might not be a read for everyone, many will enjoy sitting down to read a few more of Clara’s apt observations and wry sense of humour.

Museum News by Diana Ball
It has been a great summer with lots of visitors and great feedback about our summer exhibit “Walk me down the aisle, decades of wedding fashions” which closed Sept 28. Our exhibit for next season featuring the history of sports and recreation is in the planning stages and I am seeking in particular old sports equipment. The older the better . ie: baseball mitts, bats, hockey pads , gloves, skates, These items need not be from Chase. If I could locate uniforms from the early Chase days I would be extremely happy. As always we have our ongoing fundraising events. We have just launched
our Quilt raffle. Tickets are 3 for $5 with first prize being a hand crafted quilt donated by the Chase Country Quilters with a value of $200. 2nd prize is a silver gemstone necklace valued at $40. 3rd prize is a handcrafted bird cottage valued at $30. You can get your tickets at the Museum, Chum N Lubas, from any board member, or watch for us at Safety Mart Oct 9/ Nov 13 from 10-1. The Museum is open Tuesday We d n e s d a y Thursday 9-5.

Roots of Empathy build social skills Submitted by Cara McKelvey
It’s amazing what can happen when children are given opportunities to learn about and empathize with those who are more helpless than them. That important social connection is the basis for Roots of Empathy, an anti-bullying program that began in Toronto 20 years ago and has expanded to thrive in Canada and many other countries, today. The Kamloops Thompson School District is one of several BC districts that partners to offer the curriculum-based program, which involves introducing a neighbourhood family with a baby to elementary school classrooms. Roots of Empathy is delivered by trained instructors over 27 weeks, usually from October to early June, to schools that have applied to host the program in classrooms from Kindergarten to Grade 7. Instructors visit students weekly for up to 40 minutes and introduce grade-appropriate lesson plans focused on social and emotional health during infant development and through childhood. Nine of the 27 lessons include a visit to the classroom by the baby and parents. The instructor preps the class the week before the baby visit, and follows up with the class the week after to reflect on what was learned while baby and parents were there. Children sit in a group on the floor and observe the baby, ask questions of the parents, and talk about their own feelings and those of the baby. Follow up research by Roots of Empathy over the years has revealed children who complete the program express more feelings, are kinder to friends and can be less aggressive towards others. Students have also been observed to visibly “light up” when the babies come in to their classrooms. In School District 73, the program is delivered through a partnership with Interior Community Services in Kamloops, which is responsible for liaising
with Roots of Empathy, connecting with families and assigning them to classrooms. Val Janz, who coordinates this process on behalf of Interior Community Services, says in more than 10 years of offering the program about 50 instructors have been trained by Roots of Empathy to teach an average of 20 classrooms in the district, per year. Instructors are recruited from a variety of fields including social workers, family support workers, ECE teachers, retired teachers, education assistants, recreation workers, police officers and firefighters, and many others who work with families and children. Instructors encourage students to observe the baby’s development and to label the baby’s feelings. The program also focuses on risks to babies and includes information and discussions on such issues such as Shaken Baby Syndrome, Sudden Infant Death Syndrome, Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder and the dangers of second-hand smoke. Kathy Price, a retired teacher who worked with Janz and a community team to initiate Roots of Empathy in School District 73, says it’s an outstanding social responsibility program that is evidencebased and has proven over many years to be effective in promoting pro-social behavior while decreasing aggression in children who are enrolled in the program. Because the training and implementation is closely monitored and supported by the Roots of Empathy organization, we can be sure that the program delivers what it promises. Empathy is the foundation social skill upon which all other prosocial behaviours depend, so The Roots of Empathy Program truly does reach to the root of the issue of bullying and aggression in schools. Cara is serving her second term as a Trustee on the Board of Education, representing Savona and Logan Lake.
LETTER TO THE EDITOR I would like to thank Pam Lepsoe for the article in the Sunflower about the kitchen band. It was very thoughtful of her. There are some other names she missed. I felt it a privilege to be the conductor of such an
amazing group of people and there are many happy memories and pictures of them. They were my friends. Thank you to Pam. Annie Moffat

Village Lanes? That means that of the 4 leagues that we do have, we only have ONE team opening available. In our Youth Leagues we are currently sitting at roughly 30 kids who have registered this season, which is decent, but we are always looking for more! It’s never too late to register. Did you know that we also offer a Mom and Tot drop in time every Monday from 1pm-2pm? Come on down, and get those youngsters strapped into a pair of bowling shoes! And finally, our Club 55+ Leagues (open to anyone 55 years of age or older). We currently have 101 seniors registered on our daytime leagues, with lots of room to expand! We need YOU to help us understand something. We live in a senior’s community, yet, we are having the most difficulty filling our Club 55+ leagues. How can this be? Village Lanes recently participated in the National Day of the Older Person, on October 1st by hosting an open house, with free bowling and free coffee provided for our community’s seniors. Guess how many people showed up? ZERO! We want you, the community to let us know what we can do to draw you into our establishment, come for a visit, and maybe even join a league. We are extremely pleased with our numbers this season, but we will NEVER turn down new bowlers looking to join the sport! That’s what we are here for! For any inquiries or feedback, please email us at bowl@villagelanes.ca! Have a GREAT weekend!

Word Search - THANKSGIVING
TURKEY SQUASH FEAST HARVEST THANKFUL APPRECIATE FAMILY TRADITION TOGETHER PUMPKIN POTATOES GRAVY STUFFING HOLIDAY CRANBERRY TABLE CORNUCOPIA GRATITUDE COLONIAL SETTLERS BAKE FOOD MEAL EAT
ACCORDING TO WIKIPEDIA - The first Canadian Thanksgiving is often traced back to 1578 and the explorer Martin Frobisher who had been trying to find a northern passage to the Pacific Ocean. He held his Thanksgiving celebration not for harvest but in thanks for surviving the long journey from England through the perils of storms and icebergs. The origins of Canadian Thanksgiving are also sometimes traced to the French settlers who came to New France with explorer Samuel de Champlain in the early 17th century, who celebrated their successful harvests. The French settlers in the area typically had feasts at the end of the harvest season and continued throughout the winter season.

Heat Humming Along The month of October got off to a decent start with the Chase HEAT claiming 4 of a possible 6 points in a 3 game weekend. First up on Friday the 2nd were the 100 Mile House WRANGLERS. These two division rivals don’t play well with each other. In the 1st with 2 ½ minutes gone Logan Mostat scored unassisted. With a little over a minute left in the opening frame Mostat popped his second in from Alex Durbeniuk and Tommy Brown. 100 Mile made it close with a marker with 7 seconds left in the period. In the 2nd Brown from Mostat and Kolten Moore made it 3-1. In the 3rd Braden Hughes from Austin Willier and Michael Fidanza sealed the deal for a 4-1 victory for the HEAT. Daniel Toews in the twine stopped 31 of 32 hard rubber projectiles. Game 2 on the road versus the Kamloops STORM on Saturday night saw Chase play lackadaisical enough to deliver a win to the STORM. Never out of this contest on the Olympic size ice surface the HEAT couldn’t get into second gear. Kamloops got 1 in the 1st,

2 in the 2nd and 1 in the 3rd, with Chase getting 2 on the powerplay in the latter stages of the 2nd. Brown from Moore and Okino and then Mostat from Moore and Hughes. Nic Bruyere between the pipes played well with very little help from his friends for the loss. Sunday the 4th at the Art Holding Memorial Arena saw the Golden ROCKETS arrive depleted and worn down after visits to 100 Mile House and Kamloops. Chase started slow popping a single marker in the 1st, Fidanza from Zachary Fournier and Mostat. In the 2nd the HEAT got 5 unanswered goals, Brown from Travis Beaubien and Hughes, Fournier from Durbeniuk and Fidanza, Fournier again from Trevor Okino and Grady Musgrave, Moore from Beaubien and Brown and then Hughes from Mostat. In the 3rd Chase got 3 more, Fidanza unassisted, Mostat from Musgrave and Okino and then Fournier for his hat trick marker from Mostat and Fidanza. Golden popped the balloon on the celebration by getting a
