Railroads on Parade saved
This Week COUNTY
By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com
POTTERSVILLE Ñ Railroads on Parade Ñ with its enchanting, lavish and intricate model train displays and cityscapes Ñ has apparently avoided the dismantlement anticipated in a forced public auction, and is now to continue as a prime attraction in northern Warren County, its creator and proprietor Clarke Dunham said Nov. 11. The online auction of the displays, held Nov. 11 on behalf of an investor to recoup a portion of his investment, attracted bids from Dunham and his wife Barbara, as well as the investor and one other individual. The limited bidding prompted the trio to negotiate a new agreement Ñ of which the details are to remain confidential — that will allow the Dunhams to keep the displays intact and for Railroads on Parade to keep operating, Clarke Dunham said Tuesday night. Ò This is like a resurrection,Ó Dunham said. Ò I had prepared myself mentally for walking away from my lifeÕ s work and forgetting it Ñ I was grieving, and now I am experiencing tremendous relief.Ó CONTINUED ON PAGE 9

Warrensburg honors its veterans in a new joint ceremony By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com
WARRENSBURG Ñ Local VFW Post Commander Phil Baker looked out into the clear skies above the 60-or-so people gathered for Veterans Day services. Ò In a world tormented by terror and possibilities of conflict, we meet in a quiet commemoration of an historic day of peace,Ó he
said of VeteransÕ Day, traditionally held at the very hour and day each year that the carnage of World War I ceased. Ò In an age that threatens the survival of freedom, we join together to honor those who made our freedom possible,Ó he added. BakerÕ s call for worldwide peace came on a day which a new accord between paramilitary factions was reached in Warrens-
burg. The rural townÕ s two veterans groups Ñ the American Legion and Veterans of Foreign Wars posts Ñ also set aside their differences Nov. 11 and decided to hold a common Veterans Day ceremony rather than hold two competing ones simultaneously at different sites, as had been the practice for many years.

Bolton-Warrensburg girls head for Cortland By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com
BOLTON LANDING Ñ With persistence, poise and power, the Bolton-Warrensburg Girls Soccer team earned a place in school record-books and area sports history on Nov. 8 as they beat Eldred Central in a regional Class D championship game
and earned a birth in the New York State Final Four. The victory was a 3-1 double-overtime win against an experienced, talented team. This is the first time that Bolton Central has won a regional title or advanced to the state tournament in any sport offered at the school, soccer coach Pat Morency said. Ò This is a big moment for our school as well as
for the players from Warrensburg,Ó he said. It was also the first soccer title at any level for Warrensburg. Their opponent, Eldred Central from Section 9, was a very fast, physical team that has often competed in regionals and competed in the Final Four CONTINUED ON PAGE 5

North Warren district voters approve roofing project, upgrading facilities By Thom Randall
thom@denpubs.com CHESTERTOWN Ñ Which candidate to choose to serve in U.S. Congress wasnÕ t the only decision many voters made Tuesday in northern Warren County. Residents of the North Warren School District voted to approve two propositions to improve their facilities at a cost of nearly $1.9 million. The first, to replace the roof and upgrade the districtÕ s K-12 building, passed by a vote of 264 to 46. The second initiative Ñ to spend up to $556,000 to upgrade the heating, ventilation and cooling systems as well as install a standby generator Ñ passed 249 to 59. North Warren Superintendent of Schools Margaret Ò PegÓ Brady said after the polls closed that she and other school officials were thankful for the positive vote and they were now looking forward to getting the facilities upgraded. Ò I want to thank the community for their continuous support of our school in not only keeping it academically vibrant for our current students, but in maintaining it for generations to come,Ó she said. The money for these projects was already set aside months ago in a capital reserve fund, Brady said. Brady said that the roof is the schoolÕ s original one, and the warranty on it has expired Ñ and it needs replacement before any major damage occurs to the schoolÕ s interior. She said that the roof has
Voters in the North Warren School District voted overwhelmingly Tuesday to replace the roof on their K-12 school and upgrade the heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems — as well as install a standby generator. The work is to cost about $1.9 million — and the sum is to be drawn from a capital reserve fund created last school year. Photo by Thom Randall
been patched many times in recent years, and tests have shown that the roofÕ s membrane is failing. She noted that there are about a dozen roof leaks that are allowing water to infiltrate the building’s interior Ñ including sites in the
district records room, and in her office — and the leaks are causing damage. The last major improvement project for the North Warren School was undertaken in 2012 at a cost of $2.7 million. The upgrades included roof repair,

‘Adirondack 102 Club’ looks for members throughout region By Maggie Morgan
maggie@denpubs.com HORICONÑ A new way to adventure in Upstate New York was introduced in August with Marty PodskochÕ s Ò Adirondack 102 Club: Your Passport and Guide to the North Country.Ó The work gives a detailed tour of every town in the Adirondack Park, calling on local community members to pen their areaÕ s story. On Nov. 24 at 7 p.m., Podskoch and authors of the bookÕ s Horicon chapter, Sylvia Smith and Christine Hayes, will be selling and signing copies of the book at HoriconÕ s Community Center. Sylvia Smith wears many hats: a member of Horicon’s Town Board, Beautification Committee, VP of the Historical Society and member of the Publicity Committee, Smith can now add Ò authorÓ to her collection of headgear. Along with town assessor, Christine Hayes, Smith has compiled a summary of the townÕ s history, attractions, and overall character to be included in the Ò Adirondack 102 Club.Ó The club, a spin off of VermontÕ s 251 version, invites explorers to travel from town to town, collecting stamps from places they have visited. People can journal in their books about the experiences they had in each area, recording memories along each twisting trail they come across. After visiting all 102 towns, club members are deemed Òv agabondsÓ and are encouraged to mail documentation of their travels through specific directions included in the book. Smith noted that Podskoch planned to host a luncheon each year that would gather vaga-
The Horicon town hall will be the site for a book signing of “Adirondack 102 Club.” bonds to celebrate their accomplishments. The book is only two months old, so Smith insinuated it would be unlikely that any one had been declared a vagabond yet, but she knew some were on the fast track to receiving the title. Smith and Hayes have already witnessed the waves this book is creating when they accompanied Podskoch to the Chronicle Book Fair at the Queensbury Hotel on Nov. 2 and signed HoriconÕ s page. Ò It was amazing how many people were there and how much interest they had,Ò said Smith. Ò It was exciting to have people show in-
terest in our mountains, the Blue Line, the Adirondack Park.Ó The Horicon branch authors have now put together a separate committee to help promote the book which has organized the Nov. 24 event. The books will be on sale for $20 where guests can not only purchase an edition but also have them signed by Marty, Sylvia, Christine and authors from neighboring towns. HoriconÕ s Girl Scouts will also be hosting a fundraiser and selling copies of Ò Adirondack 102 ClubÓ to raise money for their troop. Ò It is a way to promote these small, beauti-
ful towns,Ó said Smith. Ò Each little town should feel pride that they were sought out and able to take part in this. Kids can learn the history of the area and take a day trip with their parents on a Sunday, they can go out and see the oldest church or the biggest lake in the Adirondacks.Ó As the woman and new author spoke about her small adventure within this large quest to explore, it was easy to imagine the anecdotes that the other 108 contributing authors had to offer. Every town has a story and through this tour of the Adirondacks, people are invited to learn a little about all 102 of them.

Soccer
Continued from page 1 Ñ and virtually their entire roster had returned for the 2014 campaign, Morency said. Ò Eldred had a veteran team and it was a real battle,Ó he said of the game held at Lansingburgh High School. Ò Our players did a really good job handling the pressure.Ó Morency said his team members played with collective composure despite the pressure of playing against a team with that much talent. Ò Our players didnÕ t get rattled,Ó he said. Ò Despite EldredÕ s experience, we did a great job of creating scoring opportunities.Ó He said the Bolton-Warrensburg players stuck to their game plan, with their defense and offense working tirelessly to maintain ball control. “I was confident that it was only a matter of time before we broke them down,Ó As the clock ran down, we were controlling the ball more Ñ and for long stretches of time,Ó he said. Olivia Seamans kicked two overtime goals to secure the victory — for the first one she eluded two defenders and kicked a powerful, arching shot into the goalÕ s upper right hand corner, 3:30 into the first overtime. The second was a lightning shot into the lower left-hand corner. In between the two, Caroline Clesceri of Bolton made a vital save when Eldred players had the ball right on the goal line and their players were working to tie the score, but Clesceri charged in from a distance and cleared the ball, preserving her teamÕ s 2-1 lead. Eldred had tied the score in the second half. Ryley Scott had scored the initial goal of the game in the first half when she took a cross-field pass from Olivia Seamans, set it up with two
deft touches and blasted a shot into EldredÕ s goal. Veteran Bolton goalie Andi Pfau made a lot of diving saves during the game that were vital to the outcome, Morency said. Ò Andi Pfau did a really good job making the saves she needed to keep us in the game,Ó he said. But she was injured in the first half in a collision during one of her successful stops Ñ and Maddie Pratt took over her job and fulfilled her responsibilities along with the other Eagle defenders, Morency said. Ò Lindsay Markham, Sarah Calzada and Maddie Pratt did a really good job dealing with EldredÕ s speed,Ó he said. Ò We hadnÕ t seen players that fast since we played Lake George.Ó The teamÕ s ball-control was key in winning the Section II championship. In that showdown Nov. 5 against Fort Ann, the Eagles led 2-1 at halftime and extended their advantage to 5-1 by the contestÕ s conclusion. In the game, Olivia Seamans tallied two goals and two assists, Abbie Seamans scored a goal and an assist, defender Sarah Calzada scored a goal, and Ryley Scott of Warrensburg scored one too. Erin Courchaine contributed an assist. Morency continued that although the media has focused on his two top scorers Olivia Seamans and her younger sister Abbie Ñ who have both been standout athletes on Varsity since junior high school Ñ his team has a depth of talent that has brought them to the states. Ò WeÕ re fortunate to have a lot of players that complement the Seamans sisters,Ó he said. In the state semifinal at 10 a.m. Saturday Nov. 15, BoltonWarrensburg will be playing Arkport Central on the Homer High School field in Cortland.

state tourney. Ò They have two to three solid attacking options Ñ talented players who have scored 20 goals this year,Ó he said. Warrensburg Central Superintendent John Goralski said that earning a berth in the state Final Four was exciting for the WCS student body, the school community and its sports fans. This first-ever achievement in soccer for Warrensburg was particularly notable because it occurred in the first year of the merger, he said. Ò I canÕ t say enough about Pat Morency, how heÕ s welcomed our athletes and assimilated them into what was already a successful program,Ó Goralski said. Morency credited the two Warrensburg girls on the joint team. Ò Ryley Scott and Melenie Warner are really talented, hardworking, and they fit in really nice,Ó he said.

Vote third party
emocrats received a shellacking last week in a wave election that saw Republicans rack up their highest numbers in the House of Representatives since the 1920s. They took over the Senate, a first since 2006, and seized a record number of state legislatures and governor’s
mansions. ItÕ s morning again in America and the sun is blood-red. WeÕ ll spare you the tripe about healing and working together for a better tomorrow. But we will pose a thought experiment. After you finish reading this column, tear it out and file it away. Pull it out 16 months from now when the political machine is back in full swing. WeÕ re guessing you wonÕ t be any better off than you are today. Voters reduced Democrats to smoldering rubble last week not because of an ideological kinship with Republicans, who presented no uniform economic plan of their own, but rather out of disgust with government dysfunction and executive incompetence. Thirty-four percent of voters, to cite an ABC News exit poll, said they were voting in opposition of President Obama, while 61 percent expressed dissatisfaction with Republican congressional leaders. With the GOP set to control both legislative chambers, and with a president who has agreed to work with them to find common ground, Republicans have now been handed the keys to the economy. They say they will use this political capital to pass the legislation stalled by partisan gridlock. This includes resurrecting the Keystone pipeline, dusting off a series of moribund jobs bills and repealing some of the most unsavory elements of the Affordable Care Act, like the tax on medical device manufacturers. Republicans have also said they will work to reform the corporate tax code to make the country more competitive for business; they say they will kill tax inversions (the relocation of businesses to different countries) and roll back energy regulations, namely when it comes to regulating carbon dioxide emissions from coal-fired power plants. All of this, they claim, will push the economy in the right direction. But none of the above will be enough to stimulate wage growth and tackle the top issue hindering economic recovery for the people reading this newspaper: Stagflation. Inflation-adjusted incomes for the middle class have not gone up since 1999, while inflation has increased 25 percent during the same period. Income gains have overwhelmingly gone to the richest Americans, not regular folks. WhatÕ s the antidote? While the formula is tricky, recovery will only come, in part, once more cash is injected into working class wallets through measures like raising the minimum wage and significantly increasing federal spending on infrastructure projects. In his victory speech, presumptive Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell promised things will be different. “Just because we have a two-party system doesn’t mean we have to be in perpetual conflict,” he said. We disagree. This system is the root of all conflict. Democrats will likely try to block most GOP economic initiatives to deny them victories ahead of 2016, just like what the Republicans, fueled by obstructionist Tea Party rhetoric, have been doing for the past six years. The American political system is rigged; this election was a farce and middle class voters are the pawns. AmericaÕ s two-party system has mutated to a perverted game of political hardball. Both count on voters growing frustrated every election cycle and switching back and forth out of a sense of helpless frustration — or, better yet, not voting at all, the first step in a lifetime of political apathy that benefits both parties. Last week saw the lowest turnout in any election since 1940. Only 36.6 percent of eligible voters turned out. In New York, that number dropped to 29.5 percent (but rose to 46 percent in NY21).

Turning Back the Pages By Jean Hadden
One Hundred Years Ago – November, 1914 Historic home burned
Thomas Coyle, of Athol, Tuesday night, Nov. 17, 1914, suffered the loss by fire of his handsome house in which he was born and had during his entire life resided. Nothing was saved from the building and included in the loss was a pocketbook containing $160. Mr. CoyleÕ s wife was away on a visit and he was home alone. During the early part of the afternoon the chimney burned out. The fire, after a while, died down and Mr. Coyle supposed that it was out. About 6 oÕ clock, while doing his chores at the barn, he heard the sound of crackling flames and turning to look saw a big blaze breaking through the roof near the chimney. Rushing to the house, he threw open the door only to find the interior all ablaze. He was trying to reach the telephone to summon assistance when he was struck on the shoulder by a falling timber and beat a hasty retreat. He was only slightly injured. Before the neighbors, attracted by the light, could reach the fire the building was too far gone to save anything. The house was a large one and was comfortably furnished. The loss was only partially covered by insurance through the agency of George W. Lucia of Warrensburgh. In other local news, fire broke out at the home of Herbert Wilcox in North Creek, Thursday morning, Oct. 22, 1914, but a well organized fire department quickly put it out with little damage.
Senator dedicated to his town
Faithful to the trust reposed in him by his constituents, Senator James Alfred Emerson, of Warrensburgh, has for eight years served his district with marked efficiency. Wisely, as it was predicted, the voters of Warren, Essex and Clinton counties, irrespective of party affiliations, returned him in a landslide election to the senate for another term. Mr. Emerson has been particularly active and successful on all of his endeavors and has placed upon the statute books a number of laws which insure to the benefit of the people he represents. In the matter of good roads, Mr. Emerson has been particularly active and successful and the completion of the good road system in the Adirondacks and has been his chief aim. Upon election to the New York State Senate in 1906, he pushed for a Ò trunk highwayÓ from New York City to RouseÕ s Point, just south of Montreal and got $1,200,000 to build it in 1911. When he returns to the legislature on Jan. 1, 1915 next, he will be, in part of service, one of the oldest members of the upper house. He and his brother, former congressman Louis W. Emerson, are the owners of the Emerson National Bank in Warrensburgh, of which he is cashier. They own and conduct the Leland House, at Schroon Lake, one of the largest summer hotels in the Adirondacks. They are also invested together in the Schroon River Pulp and Paper Company, A.C. Emerson & Company saw mills, coal yard, the Warrensburgh Woolen Company and the Schroon Lake Steamboat Company of which the senator is president and general manager. He is also associated with former assemblyman William R. Waddell in the Adirondack stage line and express route between Riverside and Schroon Lake. With his brother, he owns a half interest in the Warrensburgh Water Works. He is very involved at this time in the building of a State Fish Hatchery in Warrensburgh. Senator Emerson is a thirty-second degree Mason and is also a member of the Odd Fellows and the Elks. He is married to former schoolteacher, Margaret Jane McGregor and in 1903 they had a son, Albert Louis Emerson. The family resides at the Emer-
son family mansion on the corner of Emerson Avenue and Main Street, Warrensburgh. (Note Ð In the newspaper article, I was surprised when it was said that Mr. Emerson was, in 1914, one of the oldest members of the upper house. According to his gravestone, he was only 49 years old that year. His wife, Margaret, was twelve years younger but she died two years before he did. He was 57 years old when he died Jan. 31, 1922 after a prolonged period of ill health. He served the 32nd District for twelve long years and it would seem that he was tired and died of over work. Today, Nov. 9, 2014, I sat and watched a few lazy snowflakes settle on his beautiful monument in the Warrensburgh Cemetery. He was truly a great man.)

New highways requested
Bear Waller Club returns home
Supervisor Van Dusen introduced a resolution requesting Senator James Emerson and Assemblyman Brereton to endeavor to secure the necessary legislation for the construction of highways in the towns of Queensbury, Stony Creek and Thurman, which were provided for in bills introduced in the last legislative term and were vetoed by Governor Martin H. Glynn. (Note Ð 1914 was a game changer in New York politics. Governor Glynn was voted out of office and Senator Emerson was, by a landslide, voted back into his comfortable spot.)
Pay hike requested
The Warren County Board of Supervisors, in session at Lake George, on Nov. 18, 1914 adopted a resolution introduced by Supervisor Rogers providing for an increase of $500 in the salary of Superintendent of the Poor Edward W. Griggs, in recognition of his efficient work in connection with the Warren County Almshouse. His present salary is $1,000 a year.
Looking for payback
A settlement said to be for more than $15,000 has been made by the Delaware and Hudson Company in the case brought against the corporation by Judge Raley as trustee of the bankrupt estate by Lee Hall. The action was brought by the trustee to collect $30,000 as damages for the destruction of the bankrupt excelsior mill property at Stony Creek last spring, it being alleged the fire was caused by a spark from a locomotive.
Ominous threat averted
Nothing has come of the threat made on the person of Joseph Wright, of Landon Hill, Chester. District Attorney Kiley has the matter under investigation and whatever is done will be accomplished through his office. It is thought that too much evidence is available against the suspected parties for any violence to be attempted against Mr. Wright.
Hallowe’en night madness
Several of the younger maidens dressed in boyÕ s clothing on HalloweÕ en, called on families who would not misjudge their change of costumes. The local boys seemed irrepressible and were determined to ring the church bells and change position of moveable effects, without involving destruction. No harm was intended, but inconvenience followed. The boys afterward corrected some of their undoings, showing no vicious intentions, though owner’s tempers were justifiably ruffled. (Note – My late husband, Merv Hadden, who grew up in Warrensburgh, always said that when he was a boy there was never an outhouse in town that was not moved off it foundation on HalloweÕ en night.)
Editorial
From page 6 It seems like the $4 billion spent in this election cycle had its intended result, like those high-frequency blasts used to clear protesters at riots. But it doesnÕ t have to be this way. Your vote should be constructive rather than punitive. Considering the first half of this decade has seen activists fighting for democracy across the world — in Hong Kong, student protesters have been grinding it out for the past seven weeks, while people in Ukraine in the Middle East have been subjected to unspeakable atrocities — America, quite frankly, should be ashamed of herself. We all bear responsibility. After all, most of us arenÕ t activists and have to work for a living, leaving little time for political analysis. But when this circus roars back to life in the next year-or-so Ñ or earlier, considering how America is now engaged in a permanent campaign Ñ ask yourself a simple question: “Am I better off?” If not, then the choice is simple: Vote for a third party candidate. YouÕ ve got nothing to lose Ñ or at very least, nothing to gain from the continuation of the status quo. According to Gallup, 58 percent of Americans say a third political party is needed because Republicans and Democrats Ò do such a poor jobÓ of representing the American people. None of this is to say that Democrat and Republican policies are uniformly harmful Ñ both have some bright spots Ñ but rather theyÕ re just caught in a poisonous quicksand in a duopoly that can no longer be trusted with governance. The next legislative sessions will bring no quick fixes, no fresh new ideas. Nothing will change. What did we learn from this? ItÕ s time to break the cycle. Ñ D enton Publications Editorial Board
The wind blew for some time Friday night, Nov. 13, 1914 at the rate of forty miles an hour, according to weather observers. Houses rocked and limbs were blown from several trees in the village. Telephones were crippled in several places. With three snowstorms during the past week and cold weather, which has frozen the ground to a depth of three inches, it would seem that the winter has surely begun. A weather prophet of some note has promised sleighing for Thanksgiving. There is said to be a plentiful supply of turkeys this year and the price is therefore only twenty-five cents a pound, three cents lower than last year.
The Bear Waller Hunting Club returned home Sunday at the close of hunting season in the middle of November, from SawyerÕ s clearing on the Sacandaga River near Oregon, where they had been in camp since Election Day. They brought home three fine bucks and a consuming curiosity to learn what had been going on in the world during the two weeks of their isolation in the great Adirondack forest. Members of the exclusive party were E.C. Ò KidÓ Manzer, Herbert C. Smith, L.E. Crandall, Dr. W.F. Wilkinson, Orlin Magee, Charles Green, Clarence Russell, Clyde Russell, Robert Wall and Marshal Burt. Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Wescott had charge of the camp. ( Note Ð The Bear Waller Hunting Club was founded in 1909 and dues were $12 a year and no more than twelve hunters would be accepted for the annual excursion.) In other news, while hunting with a party of friends at West Stony Creek, Myron Parker shot and killed a large buck deer. Louie Van Dusen killed a fine buck deer Monday, Nov. 9, 1914 at Knowelhurst, Stony Creek, which weighed 210 pounds. O.B. Ingraham and party, of Adirondack, have returned home from the north woods bringing two deer with them.

Common sense party To the Adirondack Journal: Jeff MacMakin from Putnam was stating flat fact about our “Democracy was taken over unlawfully on a Christmas EveÓ but not in 1923 Ñ it was in 1913. [Readers] should join me in creating a Common Sense Party É nationwide. In 1913, Congress, without a proper quorum, passed the illegal, unconstitutional Federal Reserve Act. Congressmen were bribed, blackmailed and coerced to vote for this unconstitutional, blatantly-illegal perversion on Christmas Eve without even a required quorum. This means that the Federal Reserve Act was never legitimately passed in 1913. There already is one Common Sense Party in Clinton County where if anyone ran on the party, it would be listed on the ballot, provide candidates the required number of signatures from votes they have been to see and help his cause to change, finally and forever, plutocracy-run government and economy. I also invite Dan Alexander, the Denton staff, and its readers to help shape the partyÕ s principles. My first one is no document, image, record or other form of information about what the government acquires should be “classified” in any manner that remains hidden from public view more than 10 years for National Security. Embarrassment about an Ò opÓ is not cause for classifying something per Ò National SecurityÓ it is because of the so many secrets that we are in the mess we are in nationally and worldwide. I know web links are difficult in letters, but this link is worth following and it is short... but exact letters in caps or small or important: ow.ly/DuXOz. Robert H. Williams Mooers

Veteran’s Day
Continued from page 1 Other community groups participated in this new collaborative service. Warrensburg American Legion Post 446 Adjutant Gene Pierce, emcee for the ceremony, called for area citizens to boost their support of veterans, in whatever way possible. Ò We must now take better care of their needs,Ó he said. Pierce said he and other veterans welcomed the new management at the Veterans Administration, which has recently been immersed in a scandal for covering up lengthy delays in providing medical care to veterans. Ò IÕ m glad the new VA administrator is now making vital changes,Ó Pierce said, talking of former Proctor & Gamble CEO Robert McDonald, and how he may fire up to 3,000 VA employees involved in the prior delays to medical care and the falsified waiting lists. Ò Now, itÕ s up to us as veterans to make sure that the VA lives up to their responsibility,Ó Pierce continued. Megan Pierce, Gene Pierce’s daughter, read a poem titled “Soldier’s Sacrifice” which she had written while her mother Blanca Pierce, a Master Sergeant in the U.S. Army, was serving in Afghanistan. Blanca is now retired after 38 years of military service. Warrensburg V.F.W. Quartermaster Kendra Raymond read the local Honor Roll of Warrensburgarea soldiers of those who died in various wars.

Thomas Pettigrew, pastor of the local Church of the Holy Cross, offered a prayer; and Michelle Bedell, Director of the Post 446 American Legion Riders, led the Pledge of Allegiance. Jane Cupp of the local American Legion Auxiliary read the essay Ò What is a Veteran.Ó Andy Sprague, Jim Hull, and Eric Nilsestuen represented the Warrensburg Volunteer Fire Co. at the ceremony.

The Furniture House turns shopping into a treasure hunt By Maggie Morgan
maggie@denpubs.com QUEENSBURY Ñ Five minutes after entering the Furniture House on Route 9, visitors will already be thinking about when their next visit will be. Mario, owner, makes shoppers feel like an old friend as he alternates between telling jokes and showing off his one-of-a-kind pieces. The store, opened in August 2014, is what Mario calls a Ò fraternal twinÓ to his Saratoga location. Both locations deliver the same selection, but QueensburyÕ s Furniture House is geared a bit more toward the Adirondacks. Currently undergoing renovations, Mario foresees the store’s finished product to be presented at a grand opening in Spring 2015. On a recent tour of his store, Mario explained that his business isnÕ t a Ò cookie cutterÓ store; the Furniture House aims to show visitors how buying a new chair or a sofa isnÕ t just about functionality, it is truly an art. Mario, who has been in the business for more than 30 years, is not only knowledgeable about the goods he sells, but he is overflowing with passion. The Furniture House holds items that Mario said are, Ò more than just pieces of furniture, they come into your home and make it special. Ò We are a combination of a traditional furniture store where we buy products off the shelf as well as small, Amish companies,Ó he said. Ò I just came back from Ohio this weekend and I go into shops that are maybe only three people to major factories and I am able to bring back products that you can’t find anywhere else. ItÕ s a blend of a small speciality shop and a generic furniture store. We bring the best of everyone together in a way where it is more than just filling a void.Ó MarioÕ s store also offers the option to have custom-made furniture at a customized price. Though some items may not be within a personÕ s budget, Mario is willing to work with the customer sometimes reducing the price to 40 percent off the marked price. Ò YouÕ re buying furniture that is multitasking, that you will have for the rest of your life,Ó he said. Ò You can either fill your home with mediocre furniture or buy something with character, that is unique. These are like ‘new antiques’, you wonÕ t just throw them away you will love owning them. You arenÕ t spending more money, you are just spending it differently. YouÕ ll want to just sit at home.Ó The entire store, which isnÕ t even done growing yet, has 70-80 percent domestic, American-made goods with off-shore items featured throughout. The healthy mix of products makes customers able to compare and contrast what it is they really want as they peruse the furniture and picture it fitting into their own home. Ò Where other stores peak is where we start,Ó he said. Ò We go from good, to better, to over the top. you may fall in love with something that fits your venue.Ó The business also routinely delivers. Mario said he has been to Seattle, Florida, Aspen, Connecticut and many other locations across the country. He wants people to have the pieces that they so crave, making sure that his store is the one that brings it to them. The Furniture House is extremely customer-oriented, theyÕ re pleasant, inviting, and will go great lengths to ensure satisfaction. The store is open Monday through Sunday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and by appointment. Mario said that if someone calls and says they canÕ t come in until 7 p.m., someone will be there waiting for them. Ò Our customers provoke us to keep delivering the over the top items, because when they
see this they keep going Ô wow thatÕ s what I want,Õ Ó he said. Ò You didnÕ t necessarily come in thinking you would buy this rocking chair, but you sit in it and feel the swivel and the beautiful finish like a Rolls Royce, and all you can say is Ô wow.Õ Ó Mario explained that he has evolved with the business, making sure customers are getting the best of what is out there. Other stores may stick to the game plan, but Mario said his store holds things customers just cannot find anywhere else. Mario provides customers the map and directions so they can find their very own treasure. The tour ended with the area that Mario is currently renovating. Ò We are bringing this building back to its glory days and beyond,Ó Mario said. Ò What we are doing is not just a furniture store. It is going to be the pinnacle of a destination furniture store. You will come here and find things you wouldn’t find anywhere else, service beyond your expectation. I am small enough where I can know my customers and appreciate their business.Ó RIGHT: Mario reveals a bed tucked inside a finely crafted armoire, otherwise known as a “Murphy bed.” Photo by Maggie Morgan

Wbg. town board boosts Bond Act approval means $1.1 its support for EMS squad million technology boost for WCS By Thom Randall
thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG — The Warrensburg emergency squad will be getting their annual appropriation from town government increased substantially beginning in 2015, following a decision reached at the town boardÕ s October meeting. In a unanimous vote, the board approved increasing their annual contribution towards the squad’s services by $10,000. Warrensburg Emergency Medical Services, an independent agency, has in recent years received $40,000 annually from the town. Board member Linda Marcella had urged the board to create a special district for the squad — which would levy an annual tax to support the squad — plus she asked the town leaders to increase the budget appropriation by $57,000. She read several letters expressing support for the squad and praise for their work. Other board members, wary of the substantial increase, suggested that Warrensburg Emergency Medical Services retain a financial advisor to advise them on closing their recurring financial shortfalls. Also, it was noted that Warren County officials were looking into providing county-wide Advanced Life Support services, considered costly due to the expense of round-the-clock staffing by highly trained personnel. A suggestion was made to lend the squad money for a temporary fiscal boost, but Robert Hafner, attorney for the town, said such a move was against state law. In other business, the Warrrensburg Town Board: • Heard from Warrensburg Beautification founder Teresa Whalen and town Historian Sandi Parisi that 12 property owners were obtaining officially sanctioned plaques that designate their buildings — primarily homes — as being listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Parisi noted that more than 400 buildings in town are designated as historic and listed on the state and national historic registers. the Warrensburgh Historical Society is paying half the cost of 10 of the plaques. • Received a letter from James Cooper, announcing his resignation from the town Zoning Board of Appeals as of Dec. 31. He serves as chairman of the panel. Cooper has served the town government for decades on the zoning and planning boards. • Granted a request by Donna Flanagan, new proprietor of the Merrill-Magee House property, to ask the state to establish a No-Parking zone on Hudson Street so customers and vendors could easily enter the driveway. The Merrill-Magee House is now being renovated, its bed-and-breakfast services are active, and plans call for the main house — with its restaurant, tavern and banquet room — to be reactivated next year. Linda Marcella voted against the motion, citing that the proposed parking zone needed more study, as it would impact neighboring property owners. • Voted to extend a working relationship with the Creating Healthy Places to Live Work & Play program that is conducted through Glens Falls Hospital. Supervisor Kevin Geraghty praised Kathy Varney, coordinator for the program, for obtaining grant money to fund effort making the town more pedestrian friendly. Ò The town cannot thank you enough,Ó he said. • Voted to establish a capital fund to develop a town park on Queen Village Pond, near the hydropower dam beside State Rte. 418. The town acquired the property after it conducted a decades-long brownfield cleanup project at the site of a former paper mill that produced cardboard products. The board voted to set aside an initial sum of $5,000 for the parkÕ s development.
NWCS, JCS to benefit too By Thom Randall
thom@denpubs.com WARRENSBURG Ñ Students, instructors and staff at Warrensburg Central School may enjoy improved access to the digital world beginning in 2015 due to $1.1 million in state funds now earmarked to boost technology in the district. Overwhelming voter approval of the $2.2 billion Smart Schools Bond Act means area schools will be receiving grants that are to be used primarily for technology, digital infrastructure and security. The act passed by a margin of 77 percent Yes to 23 percent No Ñ of those who voted on that proposition. The initial appropriation of the Smart Schools money to public schools runs parallel to the state aid formula, which directs more money to school districts with higher enrollment and where district citizens have lower average household incomes. Warrensburg, with its high percentage of state aid, is to receive $1.1 million from the Smart Schools bond act. Lake George and Bolton, wealthier districts, are to receive $230,000 and $83,000 respectively. North Warren is to get $298,000; Hadley-Luzerne, $743,000; and Johnsburg, $316,000. Queensbury is to receive $1.9 million due to its large enrollment. The schools are to prepare plans for how their appropriations would be spent. The proposals are to be submitted to the state education department for approval. In Warrensburg, obtaining several new computer servers are at the top of the list, as well as highcapacity cable that can boost the bandwidth available throughout the high school and elementary school, Superintendent of Schools John Goralski said Nov. 10. In addition, Warrensburg Central will be seeking to add more security cameras in and around the schools, and establish an electronic swipe-card entry system for its staff. The school already has a video-enabled remote entry system for visitors which was installed in 2012. In addition, plans call for providing wi-fi through WarrensburgÕ s school buildings, Goralski said. If thereÕ s enough money left over, the district may buy laptops and/or computer tablets to be carted from one classroom to another for studentsÕ use, he said. Ò WeÕ d like to expand one-on-one computer access in our schools,Ó he continued. Goralski said that infrastructure upgrades, including increased bandwidth, are vital at WCS because more and more computer applications and programs are not based in local computer, but on the Internet. He noted that the school uses Google Drive and other cloud-based applications including a teacher evaluation program and a student management system. Goralski said that WCS administrators would be preparing a proposal for how theyÕ d be investing the money in technology soon after state authorities issue guidelines for the grants. He estimated that the technology upgrades might be in place by fall 2015. Warrensburg High School has historically been a leader in technology, having installed one of the first Distance Learning classrooms in the mid-1990s. In this collaborative effort, students from a consortium of schools are able to take specialized classes and share the experience in real time from students scattered across the region. Distance Learning courses offered at Warrensburg High School include Advanced Placement U.S. History, Calculus, Italian and various several other offerings. Goralski said that school officials appreciated this technology appropriation, and that theyÕ d be good stewards of the money. He said that administrators were planning to avoid buying a lineup of desk-based computers that might be obsolete in several years Ñ and then need replacement. Ò WeÕ re going to use the money as wisely as we can, and thatÕ s why we are giving priority to infrastructure upgrades,Ó he said.
