HONORING VETERANS
ELIZABETHTOWN
IN WARRENSBURG
By Thom Randall
Supervisor to be county leader?
thom@denpubs.com QUEENSBURY — Although Warren County’s leaders have all but wrapped up their 2013 budget which includes eliminating 11 government jobs, continuing financial challenges persist that may prompt other cost-cutting initiatives, according to county Administrator Paul Dusek. Warren County’s $149.9 million spending plan, featuring a 1.99 percent increase in the county’s property tax levy, is headed for a public hearing at 10 a.m. Friday Nov. 16. “This budget is just the start of a long-term process,” Dusek said, noting that decreased revenues and ever-increasing employee health care and pension costs will continue to pressure the county’s finances. Also, the county’s Westmount nursing home is expected to cost taxpayers millions of additional dollars over the next six years due to declining state reimbursements — a prediction that

Warrensburg veterans honored for sacrifices By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — In a solemn ceremony at 11 a.m. on Nov. 11, about a dozen local war veterans honored the sacrifices their comrades made during various wars in protecting liberty and freedom.
Standing in Frederick Flynn Memorial Park on Veterans Day, local VFW commander Phil Baker gazed into the steely sky. “Courage is our willingness to die for something greater than ourselves,” he said. “Today, we honor those who had the courage and bravery to fight for our freedom — Let us never forget them.” Local V.F.W. President Debbie Walsh
offered her thoughts. Her father, the late Kenneth Johnson, was a sergeant in the U.S. Army, serving in World War II, fighting in Sicily for the 110th Mountain Division. Hit by shrapnel in a conflict, he suffered injuries. “My Dad was preparing to become a physical education teacher — then he CONTINUED ON PAGE 17

QUEENSBURY — Results in Warren County's two local races won’t be tabulated and confirmed until Nov. 16 or 17, county Election Commissioner Bill Montfort said early this week. As of Wednesday Nov. 14, results of a three-way race for Thurman Town Board were awaiting a tally of write-in votes cast. In Stony Creek, the outcome of a race for town board was to be affected by tabulation of absentee ballots yet to be counted. Montfort said Tuesday Nov. 13 that county election workers just started “recanvassing” votes this week, which means double-checking the machine count as well as tabulating write-in votes and absentee ballots. He said the crew was starting with the town of Queensbury, and likely to tackle the votes in Thurman and Stony Creek near the end of the week. Running for Thurman town board were Lisa Marie Bender, Gail Seaman and Filomena Riviello, who is serving as Thurman Town Justice through Dec. 31. In Election Day’s machine vote, Seaman, a Republican, won 201 votes to Lisa-Marie Binder ’s 112. The tally for Riviello, who ran as a write-in candidate, hasn’t yet been determined. Another post in Thurman pending the tally of write-in votes is the town Justice position. Sheila Flanagan, proprietor of Nettle Meadow Farms, is write-in candidate for town justice to succeed Riviello — but she is the only declared candidate. In Stony Creek, independent town board candidate John Thomas trumped Republican candidate John F. O'Neill by a

Tree lighting, food fest set for Chestertown CHESTERTOWN — The town of Chester ’s local Memory Tree lighting ceremony, launched last year by the Chestertown Rotary Club, returns this year with a new attraction. Accompanying the 2012 holiday tree-lighting ceremony Tuesday Nov. 27 is “Taste of the Tri-Lakes” — which features samplings of food from area restaurants. The food fest is to take place from 5 to 7:30. Rotarians will be lighting the Christmas tree at 7 p.m. at the main intersection in Chestertown, near the Panther Mountain Inn. Tickets for the Taste of the North Country are $1 each, and restaurants will be charging one to three tickets for their samplings. The evening event includes free hot chocolate, a bonfire with s’mores, and live music. The proceeds benefit the Rotary club and Tri-Lakes Business Alliance. Rotarians note that the tree lighting ceremony was initiated last year in an effort to develop a sense of community in Chestertown as well as provide an opportunity for people to remember and acknowledge those folks that have exerted a positive impact on their lives. The event also raises funds to help local people facing difficult times. Funds raised go to the food pantries of Chestertown and Horicon. Music will be provided throughout the evening by local church choirs and high school students.

The selection of board chairman is a choice made in a caucus of the supervisors representing the majority political party, and in recent history, that’s been the Republicans. The caucus is traditionally held in December. Geraghty said this week that if chosen to lead the county, he would carry forward his fiscally conservative approach. “We continue to face financial challenges, and the issues are complicated,” he said. “Warren County supervisors, like others across the state, will have to have to deal with the changing role of county governments.” If Geraghty moves into the county chairmanship as expected, Stony Creek Supervisor Frank Thomas, a Republican who’s been in office nine years, is expected to take on the county Budget Officer post. With Stec’s ascension into the state Assembly, his post as Queensbury town supervisor will be up for an appointment by the town board. Expressing interest in the position of Queensbury’s political leader have been town G.O.P. Chairman and former county Supervisor-at-Large William Van Ness, town board member and deputy town supervisor Ron Montesi, and county supervisor-at-large Mark Westcott, who also serves as an aide to U.S. Rep. Chris Gibson.

WARRENSBURG — With Queensbury Supervisor Dan Stec elected Nov. 6 to the state Assembly, he’ll be vacating his post of chairman of the Warren County Board of Supervisors, and Warrensburg Supervisor Kevin Geraghty is expected to move into this high-profile role as the county’s top political leader. Geraghty now serves as the county Budget Officer, and for decades, it has been traditional for the supervisor serving in that post to be drafted as chairman when the chairmanship is vacant. Geraghty has served as county budget officer for six years, a tenure that required him to draft spending plans during the economic collapse and its aftermath of widespread financial distress among municipalities. This meant Geraghty had to craft budgets during a time that county government revenues dwindled, yet demand for services spiraled. He also had to keep Warren County solvent despite a depleted fund balance — a dilemma he inherited. During his tenure as county Budget Officer, the county’s financial reserves have been bolstered dramatically. Last March, Geraghty declared he was seeking the post of county Board
of Supervisors Chairman, and since then, no other candidates have emerged. But Geraghty remained cautious this week about whether he’d have any competition for the position. “Although I don’t expect to be challenged, nothing’s a given,” he said. “It’s a decision of the full board, and I hope my colleagues would think I earned their trust.” Apparently, he has. In recent weeks, Geraghty’s expertise in budgeting and his knowledge of the county’s vast operations have prompted praise from other county supervisors. Geraghty has been credited for slashing county expenses and downsizing the size of government in response to the U.S. economy’s problems. But Geraghty deferred credit to the other board members for a series of budgets that have featured the lowest series of tax increases in perhaps a half-century. “We’ve had big fiscal challenges, particularly in 2009, and we’ve recovered pretty well,” he said. “However, it took 20 members of the board to make the decisions to put the county on the right track.” If Geraghty attains the post in January as many expect, it would be the first time in a half-century the town of Warrensburg had such political clout.

Rotary Club aids N.C. Wild Care efforts LAKE GEORGE — In another milestone of local generosity, the Lake George Rotary Club donated $500 to North Country Wild Care to help the group acquire pre-release conditioning enclosures — cages — for their use in humanely rescuing and rehabilitating wildlife. Such specialized enclosures are considered a vital part of the rehabilitation process, as they allow orphaned wild animals to become accustomed to the sights, sounds, and temperatures of their release environment. For both orphaned and injured wildlife, these devices give the opportunity for the creatures to obtain more exercise - to fly, climb, run and jump in an environment free from predators while they improve their fitness level. North Country Wild Care members rehabilitate a wide range of mammals and birds such as squirrels, opossums, fawns, raccoons, skunks, foxes, coyotes, wolves, rabbits, as well as songbirds, raptors, water and game birds, each with their own natural history and caging needs. Considering that wildlife are accustomed to unlimited freedom and choices, any enclosure is restrictive and stressful, a representative of North Country Wild Care said. Thus, Wild Care members are particularly grateful to the Rotary Club for contributing to-

Rotary has charitable tradition The Lake George Rotary Club has an extensive record of assisting organizations that are involved in enhancing the lives of local citizens. Recent grant recipients include: the Association for the Hearing Impaired, Caldwell-Lake George Library, Caritas, House of Grace, the Lake George Land Conservancy, Glens Falls Literacy New York, Mito Hope & Help, North Country Ministry, Operation Santa Claus, Project Life Saver, Under the Woods Foundation, the Warren County Historical Society, and Lake George Women in Need. Lake George Rotary spokeswoman Joanne Gavin said that this week that local citizens are as generous as ever. Just weeks ago, she said, the club’s annual Rotary Radio Days raised a record sum of $10,000 — through the generosity of local businesses — about 25 percent more than in 2012. About half of the proceeds of this fundraiser go towards high school scholarships, and the other half towards miscellaneous Rotary projects, she said. “For a relatively small club, Lake George Rotary raises a lot of money for charitable purposes,” she said. “We appreciate the generosity of the local communities in helping us to assist those in need — not only in Lake George, but the region as well.” The Rotary Club meets at 6:15 p.m. every Monday in the Lake George Holiday Inn. For details, contact the club’s secretary at nancy@daviesrealty.net or 636-4310. ward more and larger enclosures, the spokesperson continued. North Country Wild Care is a nonprofit organization that supports home-based licensed wildlife rehabilitators. Working out of their homes in nine upstate counties, members are rehabilitate and return animals to the wild.
Winter training sessions and educational programs to schools, civic groups and community organizations are also provided at no charge. In an effort to better respond to calls for wildlife in need, the members developed an Emergency Wildlife Hotline — (518) 964-6740 — which is manned 24/7, including holidays.

Bolton’s debut ‘cook-off’ a success
Hurricane relief effort under way
Bolton residents once again have proven they have outstanding community spirit — and that they can have a ton of fun while supporting a local institution in need. A substantial crowd of people attended the firstever Bolton Cook-off, which was held Saturday Nov. 3 as a fundraiser for the Bolton Free Library. Nearly 100 sampled the dishes, enjoyed a glass of wine, and voted for their favorite entry while socializing. The tavern “Pub on 9” won the professional category in the cook-off with their cream of mushroom soup. Asian cole slaw created by Bolton resident Kathy Conerty captured the amateur prize. There were 17 entries in all. Not all the donations have yet been tallied, but the library collected at least $800. The cook-off follows various other events in achieving considerable success in its debut year. Other events drawing substantial local crowds have been Bolton’s Cabin Fever Party, the Bolton Spelling Bee and the Bolton Harvest Festival — all demonstrating the strong community spirit and generosity of Boltonians.
The Bolton Chamber of Commerce is now collecting items to be distributed to families in need due to the ravages of Hurricane Sandy. The Chamber is coordinating with several local residents that will be making trips down to the areas hardest hit. At this point, needed are cleaning supplies, flashlights, batteries, heavy duty trash bags, work gloves, goggles, hand warmers, bleach, tarps, school supplies, pre-mixed baby for-

few days before Hurricane Sandy slammed into the East Coast, devastating homes and businesses in several states, there was a disaster in the tiny Adirondack hamlet of Bakers Mills, just south of North Creek. The community response to both crises was uplifting, and it left us thankful for living in a, Adirondack small town. In the early morning hours of Saturday, Oct. 27, Bruce and Amy Cleveland’s house in Bakers Mills was razed by a fire. By some miracle, they had left home an hour earlier to go to the Glens Falls Hospital emergency room. When they arrived back in Bakers Mills, their home was gone. They lost everything. On Oct. 29 and 30, Hurricane Sandy ripped into the East Coast, with New Jersey, New York City and Long Island taking the brunt of the winds and floodwaters. Many lost everything. We continue to hear stories of Adirondack residents traveling south to the greater New York City area to help with the recovery, including firefighters, police officers and business owners. A nationwide relief effort was set up to help the people who lost property during Hurricane Sandy. It seems do this for strangers not just in America but around the world who need our help from natural disasters. Yet it was Bruce and Amy Cleveland’s personal disaster that reminded us that there are people in our own towns, our own region, who also need help. And that help came. The Clevelands’ friends, family and neighbors in the town of Johnsburg have set up a recovery fund for them, and they held a benefit on Sunday, Nov. 11 at the J&J Foxx Lair Tavern in Bakers Mills. It was a resounding success. People donated food, items for the raffle and auction, and music. The tavern’s manager, Joelene Slater, co-organized the event with Nancy and Bert Heckett from the Wevertown Country Store. The Cleveland benefit was a classic example of neighbors helping neighbors, and it seems there’s a culture of giving in the town of Johnsburg. The J&J Foxx Lair Tavern regularly holds benefits, including the Halloween Bash for the North Country Hardship Fund, founded by Wayno Bukovinsky, another local resident. In the spring of 2008, Wayno was in a
November 17, 2012
coma after a serious motorcycle accident. Airlifted to Albany Medical Center, his prognosis, including recovery from traumatic brain injury, was bleak. Soon afterward, there was a widespread effort to help with family and medical costs. “The North Country Community rallied behind my family,” he said. “Fundraisers were coordinated by childhood friends, fellow firefighters, co-workers and people I had never met before.” And now Wayno’s paying it forward. After recovering, even in a wheelchair, he set up the North Country Hardship Fund to help neighbors in need throughout the region. In August, their Wayne Stock V benefit concert at the Ski Bowl Park in North Creek raised $22,000 for the Fund, which provides relief to families suffering a tragedy in Warren, Essex, Hamilton, Saratoga and Washington counties. It’s this kind of pay-it-forward attitude in small Adirondack towns that makes us thankful. Whether we know them or not, our neighbors are willing to help in times of tragedy, and they treat everyone as though they’re family. Tragedy can strike anytime, and it’s a blessing to know that people like Wayno and Tammy Bukovinsky and businesses like the J&J Foxx Lair Tavern and Wevertown Country Store are here to help. Yet it’s not only disasters that cause distress in our neighbors’ lives. There are people who need our help every day, with clothing, food and fuel. We should also find time to help them as we look to help others in far-away countries. So, if you haven’t had a chance to help a neighbor this holiday season, please consider donating to a local charity or food bank in your hometown. The North Country Hardship Fund could certainly use the help. So could the Clevelands; send donations to Community Bank, Main Street, North Creek, NY 12853 c/o the Cleveland Fire Fund.

Our Nation is at a Crossroads
W
ith the election now behind us our nation is either poised to move forward or is stuck fast in the mess that has plagued us over the past four years. We can assume from the results of the presidential election that approximately 51 percent of the country believes we are on the road to recovery and bright days are ahead. The other 48 percent of those participating in the recent election believe the country is severely broken, lacks the leadership needed to correct the problems and believes very troubled days are ahead. Obviously we are a nation where the majority rules, but we’ve become a nation of winners and when winning at all cost is the primary objective it tends to leave ill will in its wake. While no one wants to end up on the losing side of a hard fought battle, what I hear most disturbing from those on the losing side is a loss of faith in our nation’s principles more so than just a bitter defeat. When President Obama was elected in 2008, those who chose not to vote for him were at least optimistic that he would live up to the words of his campaign, bring the parties together, reduce the unemployment rate and the deficit and bring about a needed change in the way the country had been functioning over the previous administration. Unfortunately, throughout this campaign President Obama took a different approach with his reelection using terms like “redistribution,” “revenge,” and drew lines around race, gender, sexual orientation, and age. Where most presidents spoke about motivational achievements and encouraging goals, President Obama spoke about entitlements, those who don’t share with others and discouraging small business job providers. Clearly the last four years have seen a major shift in the attitude and expectations people have with regards to their lives and the position government seeks to have in those lives. We’re moving from a nation where John Kennedy challenged us… not to ask what our country can do for us but what we can do for our country to an Obama second term where we should be asking the country to step in and right the inequities through a leveling of the playing field. Many nations have tried this approach and many nations have failed. When the
able bodied population of this nation have been empowered and motivated to make things happen on their own Dan Alexander we’ve seen Thoughts from Behind the Pressline growth in all forms. When the population becomes complacent and lacks the opportunity for great personal growth the bottom line motivation becomes hollow, and the risk is no longer worth the effort required. We can not allow the latter sentiment to take hold. When the risk takers, the motivated small entrepreneurs and young dreamers just starting out in life become disillusioned and lose faith that the realization of their dreams is no longer in their hands a fear sets in and takes hold. The fear that what made our country the great economic engine that drove the world is now slowing down is both frightening and disheartening. It’s seen as more than just a failed election it’s a stark realization that our way of life is about to change and there may be little anyone can do to alter what is about to take place. The nation’s course now appears to be set. We can not afford four more years of stagnate government but we’ve essentially sent the same players back to Washington who have accomplished little over the past four years. We can not afford rising costs, increased unemployment, higher deficits and further grid lock. So we must have faith that our great nation will persevere and not allow a process of social reengineering to dampen the capitalistic spirit that has proven so successful over the years. Both must coexist and so it’s time for both sides to unite, address the issues facing the country without further gridlock, with a spirit of cooperation and resolve to maintain a national attitude where personal responsibility and self reliance are still valued over all else. Time will tell what the future holds but none of us can lose faith in a country that has given us so much and yet much more is still expected for the generations that follow.

November 17, 2012
100 Years Ago - November 1912 Prolific citizen succumbs John Harris, 85, died at his home at 35 Terra Cotta Avenue, Glens Falls after a lingering illness. Beside his widow, Zelpha Harris, he is survived by 12 children, 24 grandchildren and 8 great-grandchildren. Mr. Harris was born in the town of Queensbury, March 27, 1827. He married Lina Sherman, Sept. 23, 1847. She died in 1852. He again married on Feb. 7, 1854, this time to Zelpha Sherman. The funeral was held from his late residence, the afternoon of Nov. 27, 1912, the bearers being his grandchildren, Fred Brown, Ira Hewitt, Benjamin Harris and Washington Butler. Mr. Harris was a lifelong resident of Queensbury and was well respected by all who knew him. (Note…I think that it is a good bet Lina and Zelpha Sherman were sisters. In the mid 1800’s a boy did not go courting very far from his home territory.)
Rabbit on the holiday menu Preparations for the Thanksgiving dinner in the lumber camps begin early in November. Traps for the rabbits, which form the principal dish, are set in place and carefully baited with a liberal supply of whole corn and oats which is scattered under the leaves in close proximity to the snares. These traps are checked by the cook every day. After the rabbits are skinned and cleaned, the “cookie” throws the meat into a big kittle with a liberal supply of onions, potatoes, carrots and other vegetables and allowed to simmer over a low fire. The stew is served with a dish of dressing and a mug of cider with just a bite and a bit of an edge on it. Almost as good as the rabbit stew is the plum pudding which is made of bread, molasses and all the plums the mixture can stand. It is put in the oven early in the morning and allowed to remain until ready to be served along with the mince and apple pies,
piping hot and full of the elixir of life. Baked beans must be traditionally served on Thanksgiving day but are cooked just a little bit better than those doled out during the week. They are soaked in salt water for a short time and put in a big kittle with plenty of pork and buried in the ground on a bed of glowing hardwood coals and served with brown bread made with dried apple sauce and molasses. Years ago a woodsman thought it was necessary to have a haunch of venison or moose meat for the holiday meal, but that time is past and now they want their rabbit pie with all the trimmings. There is not a man in a dozen who goes into the woods for the winter that cares a snap for any other dish for Thanksgiving than a good old rabbit potpie or stew, with all the trimmings, as only a cook in a lumber camp is able to concoct. The meal is far better than some of the expensive meals served in the big hotels of major cities.
Wax museum opens A New York man has established a “World in Wax” exhibition in Glens Falls, something in the order of the famous Eden Musee in New York city. There are life size wax figures of the Rev. Clarence V.T. Richeson, Captain Smith of the Titanic (His ship sank April 15, 1912), John Schrank (He unsuccessfully shot Teddy Roosevelt. See Oct. 20, 2012 Journal), Harry Kendall Thaw, Evelyn Nesbitt thaw, Thomas A. Edison and many others of great note. The show is on Glen Street, in the store building formerly occupied by Frank Greenberger. (Note…Rev. Clarence Virgil Thompson Richeson, 35, a Baptist minister, died in the electric chair at Boston on May 21, 1912 for the sensational murder of Miss Avis Willard Linnell, 19, a singer in the church choir, who died by his hand on Oct. 14, 1911 of poisoning. It was an early and much publicized crime of the 20th century. There was a movie about Harry Kendall

Squad members commit hours, cash into training As the town is poised to negotiate a new annual contract with Thurman Emergency Medical Services, it’s appropriate for local citizens to know that the agency’s membership is involved in extensive training. The squad is also in a process of upgrading its accreditation to maximize its services for local residents. Four members of the emergency squad are currently undergoing training to receive Advanced Life Support certification. The Advanced EMT class is taking place at Essex County Emergency Services headquarters in Lewis, NY. Thurman squad members are traveling about an hour to get to the class. Also, there are two parts to the required clinical time they must perform — a hospital rotation and a field rotation. The hospital aspect consists of 36 hours of training and the work in the field consists of 60 hours of training on top of the required classes. The members in this training are to attend two times per week until the completion of the course, which concludes with an exam. The cost of this course is $1,100 per member. While a grant is expected to cover tuition, there’s also the cost of required textbooks and squad members’ travel to and from the class. It’s important to note that the members of the Thurman squad undertaking this training must meet all these mandates while meeting their routine day-to-day obligations. Thurman Emergency Medical Services was launched in 1988 with just seven members, and has since grown in numbers and qualifications. All of the squad members now have CPR training. The squad building is located at 572 High St., and membership is open to anyone who wishes to help. Those interested should contact the squad. To report a medical emergency, dial 911.
Thanksgiving holiday history Thanksgiving Day is a holiday celebrated primarily in the U.S. and Canada. Thanksgiving is observed on the second Monday of October in Canada and on the fourth Thursday of November in the U.S. Several other places around the world observe similar celebrations. Historically, Thanksgiving had roots in religious and cultural tradition. Today, Thanksgiving is primarily celebrated as a secular holiday. Prayers of thanks and special thanksgiving ceremonies are common among almost all religions after harvests and at other times. The holiday's history in North America is root-
Thaw and his wife, the beautiful Evelyn Nesbitt Thaw, entitled, “The Girl in the Red Velvet Swing,” made many years ago. Thaw shot three bullets and killed architecturalgenius Stanford White for being much too friendly with his wife. After a sensational trial he was sent to Mattewan State Hospital and nine years later he was released and acquitted of all charges. He was later sent to the mental ward of the Pennsylvania State Hospital after again being judged insane. Later on he secured his freedom once again and eventually bought Villa Marie Antoinette in Bolton Landing on the shore of Lake George, which had been built by Dr. William G. Beckers. He went there around 1942 to live the good life. His parties were famous and he was a big hit at the Sagamore Hotel where he left lavish tips. Townspeople described him as “half crazy,” but he was likable. Harry Thaw lived in Bolton for about 5 years before he died in 1947. I wonder if his life-sized wax replica still exists in some dusty, long forgotten storage warehouse.
Contentious court battle George Brown, indicted on May 4, 1912 in Ballston Spa, for selling intoxicating liquors in Corinth, a “dry” town, was acquitted. The trial was bitterly contested. Witnesses for the people testified to purchasing beer at the Brown Bottling Works in Corinth. The defense claimed that the liquid sold was malt mead which an expert testified was not a malt liquor, but contained a very small amount of alcohol.
Warrensburgh news Another good soaking rain, which began the night of Nov. 6, 1912, helped to fill the ground with moisture for the needs of the coming season. About three inches of snow fell in this vicinity Sunday night, Nov. 24 and Monday morning, Nov. 25, 1912 and traces of it still remain in the fields and shady places while in the sunny spots it has been converted to
ed in English traditions dating from the Protestant Reformation. It also has aspects of a harvest festival, even though the harvest in New England occurs well before the holiday’s late-November date. In the English tradition, days of thanksgiving and special thanksgiving religious services became important during the English Reformation under the reign of Henry VIII, primarily in response to the large number of religious holidays on the Catholic calendar. Have you thought about involving your children or grandchildren in your Thanksgiving dinner preparations? Even the youngest member of the family can help out. In our family, our fire-year old, Nolan, prepares the fresh butter, while the older ones work on the dressing or a pie. Perhaps you could let them set or clear the table. I hope you have a splendid Thanksgiving!
Events and activities in the hills
Area residents should be aware that the Thurman food pantry will now be open on the first Monday of the month from 1 p.m. to 2 p.m., and on Tuesdays from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. all other weeks.

The grass plot between the sidewalk pavement and the brick roadway in front of the Burhans property (now the present Town Hall area) on the east side of Main Street, from St. Cecilias Church south to Simon L. Lavine’s store (now opposite the Getty gas station)), has been neatly graded and seeded down and the same treatment has been given to the corner of Horicon Avenue. The Wayside Hotel on River Street, is being painted outside and inside by Herbert Marsh and Dennis Gallup and the appearance of the building is greatly improved. About 40 Warrensburgh students went by carryalls to the home of John T. Robinson in Thurman where Halloween games, music and dancing were enjoyed.
News roundabout Mrs. John Ferris died Friday, Nov. 22, 1912 at her home in North Chester after an illness of several months duration, during which she bore her suffering with rare patience and fortitude. Her maiden name was Hammond. She is survived by her husband, whose faithful companion she has been for more than half a century. They have no children. Internment was in Federal Flats Cemetery. Miss Maggie Sullivan, formerly of Chestertown, at present residing at 11 Lincoln Avenue, Glens Falls, went “under the knife” recently when she was operated upon for appendicitis by Dr. T.H. Cunningham at the Glens Falls Hospital. Miles Morehouse and Miss Rhetina Dunkley, both of Bakers Mills, were married by the Rev. Watson E. Perry on Nov. 21, 1912 at the Wesleyan Methodist parsonage in that place. Brand new cast iron parlor stoves are on sale at Burger ’s Store, 26 Warren Street, Glens Falls for $4.95.

Local businesses begin accepting Adirondack Bucks By Shaun Kittle shaun@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — Anna Busser thinks the key to the survival of the United States is found in small communities. It is important, she said, for members of those communities to begin examining the goods and services available to them, and to use that dialog to advocate filling in what is missing. Money is important, too, which is why Busser founded the Adirondack Cooperative Economy and began printing some specifically for the region. “My father was a banker in Austria, so I got to see the power of a bank to rebuild a country,” Busser said. “I would like

to see money playing a different role in this country.” The currency, called Adirondack Bucks, is shaped like a dollar bill and has similar anti-counterfeit intricacies in its design as federal paper money, but any likeness stop there. Most notably, there’s a picture of Warrensburg on the bill where a portrait usually is, above which it reads: “Be the change you want to see.” Next to the townscape is a pitch to buy local and below that is a quote from Jimi Hendrix: “When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace.” “The idea of money came out of different discussions about how we can save our towns,” Busser said. “I believe everything is interconnected with everything else. It’s a matter of waking up and being creative.” Busser said modern communities are suffering greatly because their economies have not stayed local, which in turn has severed people’s relationships with one another. “We have become strangers to each other,” Busser said. “The tendency is for everyone to be their own. We’ve lost this togetherness.” Busser said money can help recreate community by bringing local businesses and individuals together. So far, about 25 businesses have started accepting the currency, but that’s not bad considering the money began circulating in September. Individuals and businesses can become members of the Adirondack Cooperative Economy. Members pay $25 to join and receive $25 in Adirondack Bucks in return. Since the Adirondack Cooperative Economy is a non-profit membership group, the membership money will go back into the community and be spent according to the wishes of the members. “It’s really about developing self-sufficient communities,” Busser said. “We have this colossal national debt, and the money doesn’t exist to pay off that debt.” Currently, the Adirondack Buck is on par with federal currency, but that can change since alternative currency isn’t bound to the same value. “We’ve printed this money, which is backed up by the goods and services of the members,” Busser said. “In
essence, we can break away from the federal dollar at any time, but Adirondack Bucks will only work if a large amount of people in one place are using them.” Busser is hoping that other communities catch on, and that Adirondack Bucks could someday be used throughout the region — from Glens Falls to Plattsburgh and beyond. Florence Loden, owner of Our Simple Life Farm in Warrensburg, joined immediately after she learned about the currency. “I like the idea for the fact that the Adirondack Bucks will keep money local,” Loden said. “People are going to look at you like you’ve got snakes coming out of your head, but it’s a community that’s trying to build for security. To me, that sounds like a good thing if the bottom falls out of everything.” Loden’s farm is small and has draft mules, chickens, pigs and Angora goats. She and her husband also grow flax, a straw-like grass that can be harvested and processed into a linen thread, which can then be woven into cloth. The proposal came at the end of the season for Loden and her husband, so she has not been able to accept the new money yet, but when the time does come they will accept Adirondack Bucks as partial payment on more expensive items, but cheaper things, like eggs, can be paid in full using the currency. “I would like to see this money stay small and communal,” Loden said. “I want to see small businesses grow, and make this community really something to be proud of.” The Adirondack Cooperative Economy will be hosting the First Adirondack Bucks Christmas Market on Thursday, Nov. 29, from 6-9 p.m. at the Free Methodist Church on River Street in Warrensburg. The event will include a potluck buffet, music and vendors. Adirondack Bucks and federal money will both be accepted. For more information, visit www.adirondackbucks.com.

Also, another treasured tradition embraced locally is the visit by Santa Claus to the Warrensburg firehouse. On Saturday Dec. 8, Santa will be sitting in his sleigh, aided by an elf or two, from noon to 2p.m. as he listens to local children’s Christmas wishes.

On the first two days of December, the beloved community tradition Christmas in Warrensburgh returns to enchant local residents and visitors alike. This old-fashioned holiday celebration includes craft demonstrations and workshops, concerts of holiday music, photos with Santa and live reindeer, church bazaars and luncheons, children's activities, and a treelighting ceremony.

STONY CREEK — The backcountry town of Stony Creek is setting some kind of record this weekend — in terms of social events and charitable effort. Stony Creek will be hosting four gatherings — three of them to raise money for charity. The events will be held one per evening, Thursday through Sunday. First up is the Community Fall Gathering at 7 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 15 at the Stony Creek Library, 37 Harrisburg Road. The candlelit event features local people sharing their particular talents. Those attending have been urged to recite their own poetry, read their short stories, sing compositions and tell stories. Attendees are encouraged to bring snacks and beverages. On the evening of Friday, Nov. 16 is the annual Food for Thought fundraiser, 5:30 p.m. to 10 p.m. at Stony Creek Inn. The event is held to raise money to support the recently revitalized Stony Creek Library. Inn patrons choose meals from the famed restaurant’s menu, which includes steak, seafood and specials, then 50 percent of bill is donated to the library. Entertainment starts at 7 p.m., featuring the compelling original ballads by John and Orion Kribs. John Kribs has an extensive resume, having performed with leading groups in the folk-rock, bluegrass and roots-rock traditions. Then on Saturday evening from 5 p.m. long into the night, the Stony Creek Inn hosts the “Annibirthary Fest,” which is a celebration for a local couple that grew into a fundraiser for Hurricane Sand victims. The fest jointly celebrates Bobby Merchant’s anniversary as a Hell’s An-
Songwriter-guitarist Margo Macero, grand-niece of the famed jazz producer Teo Macero, will be performing with her band The Margo Macero Project on Saturday, Nov. 17 at the Stony Creek Inn for a fundraiser for Hurricane Sandy victims. Photo provided
gels Nomads NY member & Robin Harrington’s birthday, according to Stony Creek Inn co-proprietor Dot Bartell. The event features the contemporary jazz-rock music of the Margo Macero project with Bobby Howard on the keyboards. Singer-songwriter Margo Macero plays guitar, and the group performs in a contemporary jazz-rock idiom. Margo is the grand-niece of Teo Macero, the legendary jazz composer and producer who produced albums for such jazz stars as Miles Davis, Thelonius Monk, Charles Mingus and Dave Brubeck. He was at the helm for such milestone records as Brubeck’s Time Out as well as Miles Davis’ Kind of Blue, widely considered the finest jazz album ever recorded. Margo’s father Dan Macero is the drummer for the group, and local favorite Bobby Howard is on keyboards. Bartell, merchant and Harrington, all local residents, decided to raise money to help those devastated by the ravages of Hurricane Sandy. Annibirthary Fest features a $10 potluck buffet, plus raffles of donated goods and services, with proceeds going to Red Cross to help victims of the storm recover. Bartell said this week that many peo-
ple in lower Adirondacks feel compelled to help those on the New York and New Jersey coastline, because they have relatives and friends there. “People up here want to help out, and this is a such a good way for local people to become involved,” she said. Bartell and Inn co-proprietor John Finkel are renowned for their series of benefit events, having raised many thousands of dollars for charity. And to cap off the weekend, Sunday Nov. 18 brings the Stony Creek Band to the Inn for the Whichever fundraiser. The venerable Stony Creek Band, hot off a performance at the legendary Caffe Lena, is sure to draw a crowd at the Inn where decades ago they launched their lengthy, successful career in country and Americana rock. The party starts at 6 p.m., and donations will be accepted — participation in optional — for either the local library or the Red Cross Sandy recovery effort. Patrons choose dinners from the Inn’s famous Mexican menu, as on most all Sunday evenings. Bartell said so many social functions in a single weekend, three of them charitable, sets a record for the otherwise sleepy hamlet of Stony Creek. “This is truly an amazing town,” she said.

WCS field hockey coach eyes prospects for 2013 By Thom Randall
thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — In a remarkable turnaround effort, the Warrensburg High School girls field hockey team has enjoyed a victory-laden season — and prospects for the squad are stellar for next year. In mid-October, the Burghers secured the Adirondack League Championship with a 6-0 record, quite a rebound from 2012’s 0-6 season tally.

“This was one of the top five hockey teams I’ve ever coached — and it’s not a matter of win-loss record, but it’s about people and character,” she said. In post-season play contending for the Class C Section II championship, the Burghers met up with Greenwich, the 2012 Class C Runner-Up State Champions. The Burghers lost 3-2 in a hard-fought, competitive game that could have gone either way. Monday Nov. 12, Greenwich beat Bronxville, earning a shot at the state championship title this weekend. Bump said that despite the loss, the Burghers’ game against Greenwich demonstrated her players’ talents. “It was an outstanding game, and it showed the major growth our players have accomplished this year,” she said. “It was everything that a championship game should be.” Bump continued that for the 2013 season, the sky’s the limit for the WCS Field Hockey team. Although five outstanding seniors are graduating, the team includes a deep roster of talented veteran players: 11 juniors and three sophomores, joined by a freshman. Bump, however, may not be at the helm — which could be a deep loss to regional field hockey, as she is a virtual legend for her accomplishments spanning more than three decades. She’s is retiring in June from Warrensburg Central as a physical education instructor, which would normally mean giving up the coaching post. But whether Bump stays on to coach field hockey at WCS depends on whether the school’s new hire has solid experience coaching field hockey, she said. “If the school is able to hire a Division I college coach who needs a teaching job, I’ll work as her assistant,” she said with a smile. “At this point, it’s hard to turn away from my group of juniors.”

Bump continued that the hockey team’s success was bolstered by parents, friends, fellow students, and area citizensat-large. “Our community has been wonderful this year,” she said, noting that over 100 fans showed up for the Adirondack League Championship game. Bump continued that the character and athleticism of the returning field hockey players will result in a 2013 season repeating or surpassing the success earned in 2012. “Everything is in place for us to continue where we left off,” she said.

The business of wilderness

F
or years, there has been a protracted debate over the value of protected state lands encompassed within the Adirondack Forest Preserve. Is land more valuable as a protected wilderness or when utilized as a working forest? In recent months, the ongoing debate has been rekindled due to the proposed State purchase of nearly 69,000 acres of Adirondack forest lands from The Nature Conservancy (TNC). According to the NYSDEC, the TNC lands will be sold to the State in a phased five-year contract beginning this year. If all goes as planned, the proposed acquisition will be the largest single private parcel of land added to the Adirondack Forest Preserve in over a century. The lands include a variety of remote parcels acquired from Finch and Pruyn Timberlands as part of a total of 161,000 acres purchased by TNC in 2007. Included within the proposed purchase are many unique and biologically important lands, as well as some high quality, recreational real estate. Of particular note are the Essex Chain of Lakes, OK Slip Falls and the Blue Ledges of the Hudson River Gorge. The 18,000 acre Essex Chain tract encompasses nine lakes and numerous ponds, as well as a critically important junction of the Cedar and Hudson Rivers which will provide public access to, and from these wild rivers. Over the years, Finch and Pruyn has leased portions of these lands to a variety of private hunting and sporting clubs, including the fabled Gooley Club. In fact, some of the proposed new lands have remained in private hands for over a hundred and fifty years. Leases for the remaining private hunting clubs, which total about 2000 acres, are set to expire by 2018. When the camps are finally gone, it will signal the end of an era. Although the leaseholders never owned the lands, they treated them well, and protected them as their own. They have been good stewards, and they’ve long enjoyed the benefits of their care. Throughout the 1980’s, I often flew into First Lake on the Essex Chain of Lakes with Helms Aero Service out of Long Lake. The big lake held a fine population of trout, and it provided plenty of solitude. However, it was not unusual to see or hear a motor vehicle, as there are many miles of roads woods roads lacing the vast property. Boreas Pond, which is the centerpiece of the Boreas Pond Tract, has a wonderful, log lodge situated along it’s shoreline. Located nearly six miles distant from the nearest paved road, the existing log lodge would provide a wonderful setting for an Interior Outpost, similar to Adirondac Loj on Hart Lake. However, it is unlikely the structure will be allowed to remain after state acquisition, due to land use restrictions in ‘wilderness areas”. Although the Adirondack Mountain Club (ADK) owns Adirondac Loj on Hart Lake, as well as Johns Brook Lodge, both of these properties are located on private lands which are adjacent to and surrounded by state wilderness or primitive corridors. ADK opened Johns Brook Lodge in the Johns Brook Primitive Area in July 1925. In addition to a Main Lodge, ADK maintains several outbuildings as rentals, which include Camp Peggy O’Brien, Winter Camp and a small hut built for volunteers. In the early 1990s, both Winter Camp and Grace Camp were renovated. According to a 1903 opinion by the NYS Attorney General, the term wild forest lands was intended “To preserve such lands as a wilderness, in which the work of man should not appear; these lands should remain subject to natural conditions and results, without the intervention of man, in cutting, pruning or otherwise cultivating the woods or the land.” Quite obviously, over the years exceptions have been made, most significantly in the High Peaks Wilderness. There are similar opportunities to establish Interior Outposts near the historic McIntyre Tract, where the Open Space Institute retains both the restored McNaughton Cottage, as well at a log cabin, hunting camp on the Upper Preston Pond.
In addition to these properties, SUNY/ESF also maintains a former NL executive cottage, the Masden House which is located near the Upper Works in Tahawus. As the use of the Adirondack’s most remote recesses continues to increase, the benefits of maintaining a presence in the nether reaches of the park are likely to be realized, especially in terms of search and rescue, and protection of natural resources. Currently, the Adirondack Park contains 85 percent of the total combined wilderness in the eastern United States. It also contains about 27 percent of all the forested land in New York State. There are 18 designated wilderness areas in the Adirondack Park totaling about 1.1 million acres. With the recent establishment of a marked hiking trail to the summit of Jay Peak in the Jay Mountain Wilderness, there are no longer any wilderness areas in the Adirondacks that remain trailless. The Boreas Pond parcel alone will serve to link three separate wilderness areas by connecting a vast expanse of woodlands with an historic, 12,000 conservation easement that has protected the lands surrounding Elk Lake for over 60 years. The purchase will connect the Dix Mountain Wilderness with the Hoffman Notch Wilderness and the Western High Peaks Wilderness. As a result, it’s likely a majority of the proposed new lands will be zoned as wilderness. As such, management of the new lands will prove to be a stretch, considering the current DEC staffing levels. It is expected the natural and historic resources of these proposed new purchases will draw new visitors, which will serve to boost the economies of local towns such as Newcomb, Minerva and North Hudson. Although several local politicians have argued the proposed state lands will not generate comparable economic benefits to a working forest, or recreational leases, the math simply doesn’t support such arguments. In 1920, about 120,000 people were employed in the wood products industry in New York state. By 1970, less than 6000 were so employed. The peak year for the Adirondack lumber industry was 1905 when about 3.5 million trees were felled and over 700 million board feet of lumber were produced. Today, the Adirondack lumber industry can’t compete with pulpwood produced on tree farms in Siberia, or hardwoods harvested in Malaysia. Currently, machines such as ‘feller/bunchers’ and similar on-site production mills, can be operated by a small contingent of workers. They can accomplish the output of a small army of lumbermen, in less time and with far less expense. It is difficult to compare the economic values of a working forest to the economic benefits of a protected forest. However, the most glaring comparison is evident in the scenic vistas, the abundance of fresh water, fresh air, the diverse ecosystems and the wildlife.These quality of life issues are available to both visitors and local residents. Wood products are available in many places, across the globe. However, wilderness is not so easily procured. Modern society is just not producing wilderness anymore. It is a product that grows slowly, and spoils easily. Yet once it takes root, it is very difficult to remove it. With over 23 percent of the US population located within a day’s travel, the Adirondack region is ideally suited to dispense the elixir of wilderness for years to come.

inter comes with little warning in the North Country. The season hits fast, like a match strike, and it burns slowly with the steady luminescence of all the whites, blues and grays the cold has to offer. It seems that just yesterday I was exiting the forest under the warm and brilliant twilight of 9 p.m., but now the days are short and night always seems close by, creating By Shaun Kittle long shadows in the mid-afternoon as it hovers over us, its round yellow face grinning from the dark infinity of outer space. At Point au Roche the meadows and forests are preparing accordingly—they have hunkered down, ready for the Big Freeze. The wind, now unimpeded by foliage long fallen, will soon push through the naked vegetation like water passing through a sieve. Tree branches will crackle in response, coyote tracks will be reduced to powder as quickly as they are made, and Lake Champlain will heave with ice and broken timber. But for now, all is calm. I visit this place almost every week, sometimes sticking to the trails and other times foraging a path between them. I know the blue jay on Long Point well—he emits a hawk-like shriek at me every time I enter his meadow hangout. And the belted kingfisher, the one that snatches fish from the great open wetland near the bike path, is not a stranger, either. I love that I can visit this place when the days are short and never have to worry about running out of time. I love that I can visit after working all day in the summer and still get to be outside for a couple of fleeting hours. There is a lot to love here, and a lot to see. Along the trail to Middle Point I often take the right hand path, following its descent into a primeval forest of vinedraped white cedar. Unlike other areas at Point au Roche, this place looks nearly the same year-round. The vines hang like bloated serpents and the understory, even in the middle of summer, is almost non-existent, so when the snow finally penetrates the splayed leaves of the cedar boughs it simply turns the forest floor’s summertime brown to white. Out on Ram’s Head, the cliffs that define the point drop sharply into Lake Champlain, giving a fine view of the open water and some of the mountains in Vermont and the Adirondacks. In the summer the bay here is as relaxing as it is rugged, and in the winter its location secludes it from some of the worst of the lake’s wind. The walk back follows the shoreline — a jumbled mess of logs and broken stones that is transformed into a crude ice-sculpture garden as spring begins to break the lake’s frozen surface. Every aspect of the landscape is decorated, from the upturned shelves of jagged ice to the great icicle fangs that hang from branches and rock overhangs and have been bent sideways from constant exposure to the wind. It is somewhat unreasonable to play favorites with nature, but I do find myself constantly drawn to that spot in the meadow on Long Point, where the blue jay likes to perch. It is wonderful and open and dotted by stands of both red and white cedar, juniper, elderberry and all of the other things that flourish in open spaces. Walking through the waist-high vegetation two weeks ago, a flicker of campfire orange lit up the corner of my eye. I stopped and, upon closer inspection, found a monarch butterfly clinging to the stem of a milkweed plant like the last warm days of autumn beating back the encroaching frostcloaked mornings. It was a strange sight this late in the season, seemingly left behind by the annual monarch migration. I left the creature as I found it, slowly opening and closing its wings, and made my way up a small rise in the field, where I could see over the trees and on to Lake Champlain. Maybe we all cling to summer a little bit, but the seasons will go forth regardless of our wishes. Emitting a cloud of frozen water-vapor breath I turn away from the monarch, and the summer, and head home with the setting sun against my back. For information, visit friendsofpointauroche.org

Veterans Day from page 1 went off to war and lost half his face including one eye,” she said, noting he returned from the war and successfully pursued his career. While praising those who sacrificed their lives in battle, Walsh urged those assembled to support the soldiers who returned from the various wars. “Let’s recognize and attend to the needs of all our veterans,” she said, noting that many thousands of veterans need jobs, counseling,
and treatment for injuries and emotional distress. Maggie Bammert watched the U.S. flag and a POW banner rise up the park’s flagpole, hoisted slowly from half-staff by veteran Ed Braley. “I’m so glad my husband came home alive,” she said. Her husband Al Bammert served in the Air Force as a crew chief during the Cuban Missile Crisis. His crew readied the jets that carried live nuclear weapons during the tense hours of the standoff.

Thurman EMS funding from page 1 This request for town support was downsized as of Nov. 13, according to a letter to the board this week, to a figure of $75,000. In the 2012 budget, the town allocated $27,315 towards the EMS agency’s operations, and the prior year, the sum was $33,468. Wood said the board, in its decision to eliminate its subsidy of the agency, was simply facing severe financial pressure, yet had to keep taxes under control, which the majority of taxpayers and voters supported. The 2013 budget calls for a town tax levy of $625,528 — the exact amount allowed under the state’s tax cap. That sum represents a 4.6 percent increase over 2012. This tax hike complies with the state’s socalled two percent tax cap law, Wood said, because the legislation allows municipalities particular amounts to pay for such expenses as pension increases and voter-approved construction projects. Wood noted that while she fully supported the idea of locally-dispatched and managed emergency health care, allocating $75,000 to the agency would result in a tax increase to property owners of about 20 percent — a hike that local citizens wouldn’t support. As for a lower amount, like the $27,315 appropriated last year, she said it was the board’s position that since the agency detailed in August how it needed $115,000 to $128,000 from the town to break even on its expenses, allocating $27,000 or so might not reap any benefit for local citizens — but it

would certainly boost their tax bills. More than a half-dozen Thurman squad members showed up for the meeting, citing the faster response times their agency can provide than squads located in adjacent towns, and the advanced training their members are now undergoing. New Thurman squad captain John O’Neill said locally-based emergency medical services was vital, and supported by the majority of the town’s citizens. He said 78 people had signed a petition calling for town support of the independent agency. Squad President Jean Coulard complained that the board was allocating money for dog and animal control, yet nothing for emergency medical services except the ambulance payoff. “People are disgusted with you,” she said to the town board. But Wood replied the zero allocation for the squad’s operation in the proposed 2013 budget was a matter of the board making prudent decisions on behalf of local citizens. “We’re charged the fiscal responsibility of the town, Wood said, after hearing outcries from squad members over the elimination of financial support. She noted that the town had 640 property owners whose interests the board must represent. “We know the squad has needs, but we have to look after the whole town and all its aspects — we have to be realistic about what we can do.” People in the audience suggested that the town set up a taxing district that would provide ambulance services in town. Town Board candidate Lisa Marie Binder offered to organize a community dinner to raise donations for the squad.

County budget from page 1 has prompted county leaders to consider selling the facility. The predicted upcoming financial squeeze has inspired county administrators to devise new methods of saving taxpayer money. Dusek said one initiative now being studied is a program of standardizing purchase of computers and vehicles to reduce repair and maintenance costs. Vehicles, he said, might now be shared among departments to maximize their use. “We’re scouting for every opportunity we
can for cost savings, while maintaining programs people depend on,” Dusek said. A similar program of standardizing copiers and printers — centralizing their purchase and repair — is expected to save the county $540,000 over the next decade. Launched in May, the initiative has already saved a substantial sum, Dusek said. Also, the county is considering cutting down on the millions of paper documents it produces each year — by converting to distribution and storage of information via computers rather than hard copies, he said. “We’ll be utilizing technology more, reducing our paper and printing costs,” Dusek said. “We’re excited that things are moving along.”
