we’re still in a good state. “While there were other roads thought about, we did not touch our core roads (and) we were prepared if this came in over budget.� In his report to Council, Zimmerman said that each year a request is made in the operational budget to allocate funds towards gravel replacement needs. These funds are then spilt into two separate initiatives. A main tender/ contract is prepared in order to address the roads that are in need of major repair.

News — The cost for granular “M� (gravel) on the various roads targeted by Central Frontenac this summer has come in at almost $45,000 under budget, CAO/Public Works Manager Jim Zimmerman told Council at its regular meeting last week in Sharbot Lake. The tender was awarded to Crains’ Construction Ltd. at a cost of $200,300.82 (including 1.76 per cent tax), Zimmerman said. The Township had budgeted $245,000 Continued on page 4 this year. “The savings will be used to ‘prop up’ other roads as they come LANDSCAPE CONSTRUCTION in,� he said. Great Prices! Call for your Quote Today! This year the roads identified for gravel are Burney Point Road, Leggat Lake Road, Clow Road, Hinchinbrooke Road, Oak Flats Road, Clark Road, Shibly Road, MacCrimmon Road, Craig Road, Moon Road, Brock Road and 613353-1032 Hughes Road. www.grndlandscapes.ca “We had removed money from groundeffectslandscapes@xplornet.ca the original budget for roads,� said Coun. Bill MacDonald. “Were there other roads we should be looking at?� “Yes, the original budget was $285,000,� Zimmerman said. “But

Mountain Grove resident makes impassioned plea to keep family’s pigs Reporter

News — “Help me keep my pigs,� Mountain Grove resident Amy-Lynn Hole told Central Frontenac Council at its regular meeting last week in Sharbot Lake. “They are in an enclosed barn, they do not see the outside, they do not run freely.� Acting on a complaint from a neighbour, bylaw enforcement recently informed Hole that the pigs contravened the Zoning Bylaw that prohibits the raising of livestock in hamlets and that they’d have to go. With her voice shaking, Hole told Council that the six pigs were not a commercial operation, nor were they

part of a hobby farm operation — as a low-income earner, they were a way, she thought, to feed her family of five (including her husband, daughter, mother and father). “My father has stage 4 cancer and is confined to a hospital bed,� she said. “After hydro, Bell, heat, there isn’t much left to feed a family of five. “I thought the pigs would be a way to provide fresh meat for our family.� Her presentation included pictures of grocery store pork products, including a roast costing almost $20 that she said would not provide two meals for her family. She said that when the bylaw

There was not mention if a special exemption might be applicable in this case.

She presented Council with a 51signature petition asking that the pigs be allowed to stay. “I don’t want to lose my father and I don’t want my daughter not to eat,� she said.

Two more road projects come in under budget expectations in Central Frontenac Continued from page 1

A smaller set of funds is then used for inhouse needs for gravel, he said. Still with roads, Council also approved the tender of $331,611.34 to Crains’ Construction Ltd. for the rehabilitation of Frontenac Road and Mill Street in Mountain Grove. This also came in under the budgeted figure of $385,000. Zimmerman said that along the anticipated savings of $51,813.88 from the Road 38 project (level crossing at the former railway bridge underpass) a total of $105,202.54 can be used to help offset a $225,000 “budget pressure” issue identified by Treasurer Michael McGovern earlier this year. Council also heard that the public works request/complaint line has been busy lately, but

the department has resolved 88 per cent of them so far. “From April 1 to May 31, the Public Works department received 52 requests and complaints from members of the public and/or their representatives,” Zimmerman said. “Out of 52 calls, 46 have been addressed.” Of the 52 requests, 23 dealt with issues relating to grading, potholes, need for calcium suppressant or other road condition issues; 10 dealt with other road issues (road allowances, general inquiries, garbage removal), 7 dealt with plugged/blocked culverts; 6 dealt with flooding/wash-outs and 6 dealt with brushing or tree removal. Zimmerman said that when they receive a call, email or in-office visit, there is a form that is filled out and a log kept.

News – The competition was stiff, but after a lengthy selection process Debra Rantz was selected as the new director of education and secretary to the board for the Limestone District School Board. “It feels like I am coming home, it is such a natural fit,” said Rantz at the press conference announcing her new appointment on June 9. “I am an Eastern Ontario girl. My dad was military so I’ve lived all over the country, but I do consider Eastern Ontario to be my home and I am excited to work and build a life in the Kingston area.” Rantz will take over her post as director of education on Aug. 4 from outgoing and retiring director Brenda Hunter. She looks forward to working in the community and commented that she has been a long-time admirer of the LDSB. “I’ve watched Limestone and worked with Limestone in my professional life and I have admired the board for its innovation, quality programming and ability to stay current in changing times,” she said. “One of the things I have really admired over the years is the strong partnership the LDSB has with the community and I look forward to continuing those partnerships moving forward.” Rantz, who currently works as chief assessment officer for the Education Quality and Accountability Office (EQAO), has held a variety of significant leadership roles during her 22 years in public education including classroom teacher, department head, vice principal, principal and assistant superintendent with the Renfrew County District School Board. She holds a Master’s Degree from Carleton University, a Bachelor of Education from the University of Ottawa, and additional qualifications in special education. She chose to apply to the position in Kingston after seeing a job posting in April of 2015 and was attracted to the language in the ad itself. “For me it’s not about the title of director of education, it is about the fit,” she said. “I saw the language of the ad with things like ‘collaborative learner, good listener and willing to work as part of a team’ and those things really called to me.” Rantz’s application was one of 30 for the

COLLISION CENTRE

position and while board chair David Jackson was happy to see so much interest in the position and the LDSB, he found the selection process a bit difficult at first. “It was a tough selection process and once we narrowed it down, we had some really great candidates,” said Jackson. “But we needed to look at all of the characteristics of those candidates and when we finally reached a decision it was unanimous.” Rantz is looking forward to transitioning into her new position in the coming months and she hopes to build on the strong foundation that has already been created by the LDSB going forward. “I hope to keep building on the collaborative culture that has been created within this board. For me it isn’t about making changes right away, it is about working with what is already in place and improving that. I am looking forward to the entire experience.”

EDITORIAL The Stones are still touring, does that mean there’s hope for the rest of us? Craig Bakay Reporter

editorial@theheritageemc.ca

Column — I know, it’s only rock’n’roll, but I like it. One of the few good things about Facebook is that The Rolling Stones post their set list for the current tour on the eve of the show. Most people probably don’t give a damn but I love that sort of thing. Perhaps what’s most amazing about the current Zip Code Tour is that these guys are older than dirt. Jagger and Richards are both 71, Charlie Watts is 74 and Ronnie Wood (the baby of the group) is 68. And they’ve been at this for 50 years. So, it sounds like the old musical adage ‘rock’n’roll will never die’ might have some merit after all. While the beginning of rock’n’roll is debatable, one could certainly make the case that it’s 60 years old this month. For it was in June of 1955 that Bill Haley & His Comets were Rockin’ Around the Clock in

Blackboard Jungle and Rock Around the Clock. Some would contend that Shake, Rattle & Roll by Big Joe Turner, which reached No. 1 on the Billboard R & B Chart in 1954 was the first ‘real’ rock’n’roll song but most blues purists will argue that Turner is the epitome of the term Jump Blues. And there’s little doubt where rock’n’roll came from. Chuck Berry sped up a Willie Dixon tune (take your pick, he wrote hundreds of them, most of which are the same tune with a different riff and different lyrics) and created Maybelline. Rock’n’roll is the blues’ baby brother. Regardless if Shake, Rattle & Roll is the missing link between the blues and rock’n’roll, there’s little argument that in the mid-to-late ’50s, Haley, Berry, Little Richard, Elvis Presley, Carl Perkins, Buddy Holly, Richie Valens, Fats Domino and a host of others were cranking out the stuff that would shape music for decades. And, back in the late ’50s, the sailors coming back to Liverpool from America would bring records. It was here that John Lennon and Paul McCartney would first hear the then-

new music. It’s no mystery why Long Tall Sally, Twist & Shout and Roll Over Beethoven appeared on early Beatles albums. And, it seems the sounds made their way to Dartford, Kent, where Jagger and Richards probably first heard Not Fade Away, Carol and Susie Q, all songs that would make it to early Stones albums. From there, the Stones would go on to continue building on their rock’n’roll roots with songs like Jumping Jack Flash, Brown Sugar and Honkey Tonk Women. Did we mention they’re still doing it? Could it be that there really is some magic in that old three-chord combination that bestows some kind of eternal youth (there’s got to be more to it than ‘if you reach 60 and you’re still not grown up, you don’t have to)? At the very least, there is hope for us lesser mortals to see that these guys are still at it. It’s probably just as Captain Teague told his son Jack Sparrow: “It’s not about living forever, Jackie, the trick is living with yourself forever.�

In Our Opinion

Don’t forget to celebrate Dad Editorial –Father’s Day in Canada is on June 21 this year and while the day doesn’t have the same history and longevity as Mother’s Day, which dates back to 1908, it is still an important day. Father’s Day has American origins and surprisingly wasn’t written into law until 1972. Many attempts had been made prior to the day becoming official, but none seemed to stick. In 1957, Maine Senator Margaret Chase Smith wrote a proposal accusing Congress of ignoring fathers for 40 years while honouring mothers, singling out and recognizing just one parent. Following this challenge, President Lyndon B. Johnston issued the first presidential proclamation honouring Father’s Day in 1966, but it still took another six years before the day was officially proclaimed a holiday. Today, Father’s Day still struggles to get the same attention as Mother’s Day. According to a new IPG Mediabrands study, 57 per cent of Canadians say Father’s Day is important, but less than half (45 per cent) plan to buy their dad a Father’s Day gift. That’s 10 per cent less than those who indicated that they were planning to buy a gift for Mom on Mother’s Day. While these days aren’t entirely about the gifts, these statistics show that we certainly pay less attention to dad on his day than we do to mom on hers. In the same survey, researchers asked dads what they wanted most for Father’s Day and while many of us think it may be the latest power tool, golfing gear or electronics, 44 per cent of dads said they want to spend time with their immediate family. Only three per cent expressed a want for gifts or treats and many stated that they would be happy with recognition for their hard work as a dad or simply a day off to do nothing. Dads are often viewed as low maintenance and easy going and while this may be true in many cases, they still deserve love and recognition at least once a year. They want to feel appreciated just like mom and while you may not feel like buying them flowers, chocolates and a mushy card, there are other ways to show you care. Most dads have a soft spot too, you just have to find it.

News — Central Frontenac Council passed a bylaw at its regular meeting last week in Sharbot Lake that reduces the speed limit around the Granite Ridge school to 40 kph from the current 50 kph. The bylaw restricts speeds from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on school days and signs to that effect will be added to the existing school zone signs. The reduced speed zone is effective within 150 metres along Road 38 in either direction beyond the limits of the land used for the purposes of a school. The request for the change came from the Limestone District School Board. “The school board seems pleased with the bylaw,� said CAO/Public Works Manager Jim Zimmerman. “The cost is minimal, only a couple of signs added to the existing school zone signs.� But not everyone was pleased. “While I agree with the lowering of the speed, I’d like to see yellow flashing lights during school hours,� said Coun. Tom Dewey. “I think it will be confusing for drivers, especially for southbound traffic coming down the hill.� “We did investigate the possibility of flashing lights,� said Zimmerman. “The challenge is that you don’t have electricity at those locations and it’s expensive to wire it out, both for power and control.� Zimmerman said that there are packages

available, including solar power, battery backup and circuit board controls but they’re expensive — up to $7,000 each. “We felt that rather than a $15,000-investment, this could be a good first step,� he said. “If we find it needs further enhancement, we could look at that at a later date. “I’d like to point out that people are already slowed to 50 kph — we’re only asking them to go from 50 to 40 kph.� “Perhaps we could add a ‘new’ sign to the existing ones,� suggested Mayor Frances Smith. “What about using the sign that shows a driver’s speed?� said Coun. Victor Heese. “The Township owns that, don’t we?� “Yes, that could help in the beginning, especially for the locals,� said Zimmerman. Coun. Bill MacDonald sympathized with those who oppose lowering of speed limits saying that “I drive a truck and slowing when there is no real reason can be quite onerous.� He also expressed concern about activities at the school during evenings. “We need to look at speed limits in the entire Township after we get some data from this,� said Dewey. “Some just don’t make any sense at all.� One area Council will be looking at in its next meeting is the possibility of lowering the speed limit on Long Lake Road from the Causeway north to Island View Lane to 60 kph from 80 kph, as per a notice of motion submitted by Dep. Mayor Jamie Riddell.

Zoning bylaw enforcement needs consistent application, Council told News — New CAO/Public Works Manager Jim Zimmerman has asked Central Frontenac Council for some guidelines as to the enforcement of the Zoning Bylaw. The request came at Council’s regular meeting last week in Sharbot Lake. “Recently, several situations have come to my attention (and) after doing some investigation, the previous Council(s) have chosen not to enforce the bylaw for political reasons,” he said. “The unfortunate point is that it makes the bylaw null and void. “We need clear direction here.”

LET’S CONNECT ON FACEBOOK!

In his report to Council, Zimmerman said that the “good intentions of the past Council were not overlooked when researching this issue,” as the intention was to provide some time while changes to the existing Zoning Bylaw could be explored and decisions made. “However, until such time as the existing bylaw in question is changed, the existing conditions need to apply and they need to be enforced in a fair, objective and consistent manner,” he said. He said Council does have the authority to begin the process of making changes to the zoning bylaw but they must follow a provincial process, whereby public con-

sultation and eventual endorsement by the Province prior to the changes taking effect. “This process can take several months if not years to implement and while these changes are in transition, the existing bylaw must be upheld,” he said. “To not enforce the bylaw would be no different than having no bylaw at all and therefore the options available to Council are to adopt a consistent, fair and objective enforcement of the existing bylaw or to instruct staff not to enforce the existing bylaw under any circumstances while previous motions of Council are acted upon.” He said that each enforcement

action does have a financial impact, with the current budget line item being $20,000. ••• Although construction numbers for May 2015 are down somewhat from the same period last year ($269,500 compared to $935,073 in 2014), overall values for the year to date are up, as are permit fees for the year to date. In 2014, permit fees were at $16,172 by the end of May but this year the number is $28,713. “Looks like another healthy year for construction in Central Frontenac,” said Zimmerman. ••• Central Frontenac will likely need a lot of help if there’s a major

disaster, Mayor Frances Smith told Council in her opening remarks. Smith and several other councilors and officials took part in a mock disaster exercise recently. “There were 1,000 people needing to be housed, fed and moved out of the area,” she said. “And we found out we’ll need some help with that.” ••• With the Province changing its rules governing ATVs used on highways, allowing 2-ups and sideby-sides, Mayor Frances Smith told Council the Township needs to follow suit. “Our bylaw needs looking at,” she said.

Celebrate Father’s Day with a Father of Confederation mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca

Events – On June 29, 1880, Sir John A. Macdonald visited the village of Bath where he attended a picnic, met with local officials and mingled with over 500 residents; on June 21, 2015 he will do it all over again. The re-enactment is part of the Fairfield-Gutzeit society’s third annual Port of Bath Heritage Festival. The society, a charitable organization administered by volunteers, wanted to celebrate Macdonald’s bicentennial at this year’s festival and when they started looking through history they found the perfect way to honour the famous Canadian. “This is the first time we’ve done something like this in Bath,” explained Fairfield-Gutzeit Society member Kimberly Cross. “We really want the community to come out, celebrate some history and see this amazing house and property. It is the perfect location for a re-enactment.” The Fairfield-Gutzeit house dates back to 1796 and is one of three historic properties in Bath built by William Jr. and Benjamin Fairfield. The home has been maintained and restored over the years by the society and is often used for events like weddings, parties and now re-enactment picnics. “Macdonald was invited in 1880 by Father McWilliams who held annual picnics in the area,” explained Cross. “The event will be very true to that historic event and we will have historic games on the grounds and local food and beverage vendors too.” The Sunday visit will start at Bath Town Hall at 1 p.m. with welcome messages and photos. The guests of honour will then proceed through the town and end at the Fairfield-Gutzeit House and grounds, where Macdonald will address the public. After that, Macdonald will mingle with residents and enjoy the grounds. “It should be a really great day and a good way to end a weekend of celebration in the area,” said Cross. “We also have events going on Friday evening, Saturday afternoon and a special dinner with Macdonald in the historic house on Saturday evening.” The festival will include a number of marine heritage displays, sail making and blacksmith demonstrations on Saturday and live music throughout the day. The goal of the festival is to show what the village of Bath has to offer and also promote the Fairfield-Gutzeit Society. “Our mandate is to preserve our heritage and heritage architecture within the village of Bath and share it with the residents and generations to come,” said David Smith, director of the society. “I think this weekend will really highlight the heritage in the area and pay tribute to a very important former member of it.” The dinner on Saturday evening

will also showcase the heritage of the area and allow people to dine inside the Fairfield-Gutzeit house and see a different side of Macdonald. “We have a younger Sir John A attending the dinner on Saturday and then on Sunday it will be an older version, so he’ll age overnight,” joked Cross. “I think the entire weekend is an amazing opportunity to be part of history and celebrate the community. I am looking forward to it.” Admission to all Port of Bath Heritage Festival events is free, but

donations to the Fairfield-Gutzeit society are welcomed; Cross hopes that the events also inspire more community involvement with the society. “We really love doing things like this and we are always welcoming new members,” he said. “History is a huge part of this town and we should celebrate that.” For more information about the Port of Bath Heritage Festival and the re-enactment events visit http:// The Port of Bath Heritage Festival takes place June 19-21 and ends www.villageofbath.com/static/about/ with a picnic with Sir John A Macdonald at the historic Fairfield-Gutzeit fairfield-gutzeit-society House on June 21.

Shake up your wakeup with Kingston’s first Daybreaker dance party mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca

Events –A new type of event is coming to Kingston and it hopes to provide a unique opportunity to get your groove on; the first ever Kingston Daybreaker Dance Party is taking place bright and early on June 19 at the Tett Centre for Creativity and Learning, aiming to help participants start their work day on the right foot. “It is a dance party or rave like event that occurs in the early morning,” explained Shannon Brown, community engagement coordinator at the Tett Centre. “There are so many people out there that really love to dance and it seems unfortunate that in a lot of cities the only way you can really go out and dance is at a bar and that is not always appealing to people.” The Daybreaker offers an alternative to late night bar dancing and provides the opposite. The idea may seem a little crazy, but Daybreakers have been popping up in different cities around the world including New York, Los Angeles and even Tel Aviv. “I love to dance and I have lots of friends who love to dance and we just started talking about that and these parties and the idea grew

from there,” explained Brown. “Greg Tilson from the Skeleton Park Arts Festival loved the idea too so we decided to make it part of

the festival this year.” The event starts at 6:30 a.m. in the Malting Tower at the Tett Centre and will include music from DJ

Bluestocking, coffee and juice from Juice Kik and hopefully costumes. “We are encouraging people to come dressed up maybe in costume

or in their pyjamas or maybe even in their work attire for the day. Anything goes,” said Brown. “Admission to the event is by donation and that will go to the Kingston Arts Council. We really hope to get lots of people out.” The event is open all ages and Brown encourages people to bring the whole family. She hopes to get at least 150 out for the morning, but she knows the event would still be a lot of fun with fewer participants. “I think it’s something a little bit different and it’s a way to get energized and get some exercise and possibly meet some new people,” she said. “I am not necessarily a morning person, but I will be there and I think this it is a good party for everyone.” The Daybreaker Dance Party takes place on June 19, from 6:30 to 8:30 a.m. For more information visit www.tettcentre.org

Events – After a three year hiatus, the Kingston Kids’ Triathlon is returning to the city and new race director Jason Trueman hopes it will be a success. “We are starting to see the momentum build for the event, but it has been a little difficult,” said Trueman. “The event has been gone for so long and it has fallen off of people’s radar, but hopefully we can get it going again.” The kids’ triathlon used to be an annual event in Kingston. For years it was held at RMC, but it was cancelled in 2011 after the completion of the new soccer dome. Trueman’s kids competed in that last triathlon and while the event didn’t continue, he kept in touch with the parents of other participants. “Last fall, a group of us started talking about past events and getting a kids triathlon going again. We all have kids and we want them to be active and we wanted to bring it back if we could.” Trueman took over the role of race director immediately and after getting advice from former members of the planning committee and gaining some community sponsors, the triathlon was back on. The new Ktown Kids’ Triathlon will take place on June 20 at the Memorial Centre and although the event is new to many Kingstonians, there are already 150 participants registered to compete that day. “We have amazing sponsorship from Subaru

and the paediatric unit at KGH, and we have a bunch of local businesses on board too,” said Trueman. “We still need about 30 volunteers for the day and we can certainly take on more participants, but I am pretty happy with the attention we have received so far.” The triathlon is open to kids aged 4-13; distances for running, cycling and swimming will be determined by age. Trueman is looking forward to seeing his own kids compete, but he is also looking forward to seeing the sub-midgets category, which includes kids aged 3-5. “They are always the most exciting part of the day,” he said. “Some of the kids will still be using training wheels and some of them will have assistance from their parents, but they are so entertaining to watch. You don’t really know what you will see with that group.” The event will also feature bouncy castles and other kid friendly activities, and the water park will be open. Trueman hopes that kids will enjoy competing against one another in the triathlon, but he also wants the kids to have fun. “It really is an all-inclusive event for kids and we just want them to do their best and have fun,” he said. “The sport is very social even though it is not a team sport. Participants are responsible for their own time and their own race, but they are also there to support others and that is great for kids to learn.” The Ktown Kids’ Triathlon takes place on June 20 and registration is open until June 18 at www.ktownkids.net

Amaranth Stoneware moves into a more community friendly location mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca

News – Amaranth Stoneware has been in the Kingston community for more than 30 years, but until recently the handcrafted pottery company wasn’t very accessible to the public. “We’ve been in a couple different locations over the years, but we’ve never had the opportunity or the space to be open to the public,” explained owner Jo-Anne Warren, who took over Amaranth about 20 years ago from the previous owners. “This time when we moved we wanted a space where we could hold classes and have studio space and parking and we’ve finally found that.” The new space is located at 745 Development Drive and has enough space for the production of all of the products Amaranth makes and distributes. It also has space for classes,

a small shop and even a lunchroom for their growing staff. “Until recently we have always been a wholesaler and we ship our products all over the place with the bulk going to the United States,” said Warren. “We decided it was time to get out in the community more and open ourselves up. We’ve hired more staff and we have more of a shop feel in the front of the space now.” Amaranth Stoneware makes everything from clever stoneware gardening tags to dog bowls and as their space expands, so do their products. “We started with gardening tags and then it evolved to bee houses, feeders and waterers. Then we expanded to birdhouses and now pet products and household items like vases and candleholders. We’ve slowly evolved to include more and more products but they are all similar and appeal to similar consum-

ers.” Warren runs Amaranth with her husband, Gerald. She works on more of the business side of things and he comes up with new and unique ideas for products. “Gerald is super creative and we work really well together to get the products done just right,” said Warren. “We take a lot of pride in all of our products and we stand by them 100 per cent.” The new space has brought new life to the business for Warren and her husband and both are enjoying

FORM 6 Municipal Act, 2001 SALE OF LAND BY PUBLIC TENDER

interacting with the community and seeing people make their own works of art. “We really want anyone who comes here to enjoy their experience, whether they are creating a masterpiece or a pinch pot,” said Warren. “I love the look on people’s faces when they create their first piece. They are almost like little kids in that sense.” Amaranth also offers their kiln to any local potters that need a place to fire their pieces and Warren welcomes anyone to come in and chat

about different glazes or other pottery related topics. She is enjoying interacting with the community more and is excited to see what’s next for the business and studio. “We have a new website too and I hope that will open us up to the community a bit more,” she said. “We want people to come check out our products and maybe sign up for a class. We are really happy to be here and we want to share that.” For more information about Amaranth Stoneware visit www.amaranthstoneware.com

Kingston Interval House launches new enhanced website By Mandy Marciniak

mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca

News – For women experiencing abuse, asking for help can be extremely difficult; Kingston Interval House hopes that an informative, up-to-date website will make things a little easier. The non-profit organization has been operating in the Kingston community for almost 40 years and while their services keep adapting and changing, their website hasn’t been moving at the same pace. “It was really out-dated and not very user friendly,” said Pam Havery, executive director for the Kingston Interval House (KIH). “We really wanted something that was relevant, easy to access and very informative.” The new KIH enhanced website launched at the beginning of June and after hours of donated time from TrueCourse Communications Inc. and web designer Kelsey Weidman,

Cold case makes for a haunting night of theatre Lifestyle – On December 14, 1960, the Toronto Police Department officially closed the cold case of missing theatre magnate Ambrose Small. The theatre tycoon had vanished 41 years earlier. Now, almost a century after Small’s mysterious disappearance, Single Thread Theatre Company and the Kick & Push Festival are keeping his story alive. On December 2, 1919, Ambrose Small sold a number of his theatres for the tidy sum of $1.7 million. What did the successful Mr. Small do with the money? For starters, he

went to his bank and deposited the initial payment of a million dollars. According to inflation calculation, that works out to $15,625,000 in today’s dollars. Then he went to his Grand Opera House in Toronto. Next? He was never heard from again. Over the years, as many theories developed as there were seats in one of Ambrose Small’s Grand Theatres. And there were many of them. Small owned theatres in several Ontario cities, including The Grand Theatres in Kingston and London, and The Grand Opera House in Toronto. In total, he owned 34 theatres in Canada and the United States. The international press in such locations as London, New York and Los Angeles called Small’s disappearance the Crime of the Century. But was there a crime?

Find a place to call home

Small’s wife, Theresa, initially did not even report that her husband was missing. According to materials in the archives of the University of Toronto/ Université Laval, Small had a secret chamber in his Toronto Grand Theatre. Within was a bar and what is described as an opulent bed. It was a hideaway where Small could consort with chorus girls and other women. The secret little palace of pleasure was not public knowledge until after Small’s disappearance. The reason the pious Mrs. Small did not report her husband’s disappearance in 1919 was because she feared a scandal. She is quoted saying: “I believe my Amby is in the hands of a designing woman, somewhere, and will come back.” There’s a hilarious and Tony Aw ar d - w in n in g musical called A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder playing on Broadway. It’s brilliant and far-fetched. Yet, it seems all too similar to the real-life tale of Ambrose Small.

Theatre magnate Ambrose Small, who ran many theatres, including the Grand in Kingston, London and Toronto, sold his interest in the entertainment venues for a million dollars in 1919. The day after he deposited the cheque in the bank, he disappeared from his last known whereabouts at the Grand Opera House in Toronto. The mystery has never been solved. Single Thread Theatre Company’s production, Ambrose, about the theatre magnate, will be held on selected dates at Kingston’s Grand Theatre from July 15 through August 15 as part of the Kick & Push Festival. While the Broadway show may have a series of murders and some romantic encounters, Ambrose, the Single Thread Theatre Company production, is based on facts that are more outrageous. In addition to

huge sums of money, lurid sexual encounters and the disappearance of a tycoon, you can also add religion to the combustible mixture. “Truth,” to quote Mark Twain, “is stranger than fiction.” Theresa Small, Ambrose’s wife, was a devout Catholic who tirelessly raised funds for the Catholic Church. This did not appear to be an issue in the community until after Ambrose disappeared and Theresa promised to will her entire fortune to the Catholic Church. Investigative historian Peter Vronsky reported that the militant Orange Order in largely Protestant Toronto backed several attempts to prevent Theresa from inheriting her husband’s estate. The fervor grew until mobs thronged a Toronto court house with demands that Theresa Small be investigated. However, the courts, the Toronto Police and the Ontario Provincial Police were unanimous in finding that Theresa Small had nothing to do with her husband’s disappearance. According to Vronsky, this did not appease Theresa Small’s opponents: “An underground tabloid newspaper, The Thunderer, was founded, which featured hard core pornographic photographs of models resembling Theresa, posed in sexual acts with supposed priests and nuns.” By 1970, rumors swirled that the ghost of Ambrose Small had taken up residence in some of his old theatres, like those in London and Kingston.

There’s still an undercurrent of tales of haunting at Kingston’s Grand Theatre. “The stories are still hanging in the Grand to this day,” said Liam Karry. “It’s not the type of mystery people associate with Canada the good, or Kingston. We’re not known for this sort of thing. It’s really exciting for people to feel and experience these things in a tactile sense in the Grand. Some people are convinced that Ambrose haunts the theatre. They’re convinced that odd goings on in the Kingston Grand are because of Ambrose Small.” This is juicy stuff and great home-grown fodder for Canadian theatre. Single Thread Theatre has taken this story and turned it into a unique brand of theatre. Ambrose features a script written by Alex Dault, Liam Karry and Daniele Bartolini. The performance is directed by Liam Karry. “They’ll be taking the audience through the Grand Theatre and through time to explore the story of Ambrose Small and what could have happened,” said Mike Sheppard of Blue Canoe Theatrical Productions and the Kick & Push Festival. “Is he still around? Many people believe that Andrew Small’s ghost haunts any of his Grand Theatres.” Karry, and some colleagues came up

with the idea of the Ambrose Small production. “We were talking about what a fascinating building and institution the Grand Theatre is,” said Karry. “We looked at the Ambrose Small stories and thought it would be nice to apply that great mystery to our type of work. The Grand is full of history. Oscar Wilde made an appearance. It’s interesting to think of Kingston in its modern geopolitical context and realize there’s more to it than Sir John A. Macdonald. It was an incredibly important port and industrial city in 1919.” And a man worth millions, a man who mysteriously disappeared, had a strong connection through The Grand Theatre. “The show is going to be something you experience viscerally,” said Karry. “Things are going to be asked of you. I don’t want to give too much away because discovery is part of the excitement of the performance.” He said if someone is curious and likes to explore, the Ambrose Small production is for them. Liam Karry explained that Single Thread’s mandate is to explore theatre in an immersive way in new spaces and found spaces. The Single Thread Theatre Company was originally founded in Kingston, and

has produced site-specific theatre for Toronto landmarks such as the Art Gallery of Ontario, Fort York, the Toronto First Post Office, the Campbell House Museum and Spadina Historic House and Gardens. Single Thread was named last year’s “Best Site Specific Theatre Company in Toronto” by NOW Magazine (2014). “If you like to discover the fascinating stories and tales about the Grand Theatre, that’s who should come to [Ambrose],” said Karry. “It’s definitely not for those who like to passively observe. It’s for those who want to jump in with both feet. Single Thread has been doing this type of theatre for about ten years. This kind of work is starting to catch on. We’ve been advocating it for a decade.” I’ll toss another possibility out to add to the multitude of theories regarding Ambrose Small’s disappearance: one of the famed entertainers who performed in Ambrose Small’s theatres, including the Kingston Grand Theatre, was Harry Houdini. Perhaps Houdini provided some illusion that helped Small make a clean getaway from the life he’d known. For tickets to Ambrose, go to the Grand Theatre box office in person or visit kingstongrand.ca.

Chinese musician visits her second home ton. Yangzhou has water, a long history, and culture, and the people are like those in Kingston.” She had attended Queen’s University as part of an exchange program with the Department of Music. She was the first music student from her home province to take part in The Ontario-Jiangsu Province Exchange Program. When she arrived in Kingston several years ago, she said her hardest days were the first ones. She busked and got to know people. She says the city is beautiful and the people are lovely. When it came time to leave, she felt sad, but felt that “instead of dwelling in a sorrowful mood, I should do something meaningful for my experience and say farewell to this beautiful city.” So she performed a final concert of Baroque, classical, romantic and modern pieces of music. After she left Kingston in 2012, and before returning to China, she went to Ithaca, NY, and Minneapolis, MN, for Suzuki training. She continued her Suzuki training last summer in Wisconsin,

Lifestyle – When Chinese violinist Essie Liu Zixuan left Queen’s University in 2012, she returned to China to finish the fourth year of her music degree program. She said goodbye to her adopted City of Kingston with a recital held at St. Mark’s Lutheran Church. She had a sadness in her heart about leaving Kingston. She also thought she’d played in her last performance with the Kingston Symphony. “I feel like my home town, Yangzhou, in the Jiangsu Province is quite similar to Kingston and Canada,” said Essie. “I feel like this is my second home town. My home, Yangzhou, is also a tourist city, and people get very relaxed in a cozy lifestyle, like Kings-

Indianapolis and Utah. Instead of flying, she decided to take the Greyhound Bus from Indiana to Utah. “It was time consuming,” she said. “I deliberately created the experience so I could see the view on the ground that you can’t from a plane.” After achieving her undergraduate degree in China two years ago, Essie returned to Canada to complete her Master’s Degree at the University of Western Ontario. She kept in touch with Kingston friends and the Dean of her school at Queen’s. Now that she’s completed her Master’s Degree in London, she has accepted a position in Alberta with the Suzuki Society for Talent Education. But first, she found time to see her Kingston friends and professors. Recently, she travelled from London to Kingston to attend the Queen’s Convocation. “Before moving away, I wanted to visit Kingston,” she said. “Kingston was my first stop in Canada. It is my second home.”

When musicians heard she was coming, they came up with a plan to have Essie perform. “I asked Gisèle [Dalbec-Szczesniak], ‘What’s a good time to see each other.’ She mentioned that she was going to be performing. I asked her what was the concert, and she told me it was the Beat Beethoven event. She was also hosting a retirement party for some members of the Symphony. She told me if I played with the Symphony, I could come to the party. I think she was joking, but I said I would.” So, a day before playing with the Symphony, Essie landed back in Kingston. With only one rehearsal, she walked back in and performed at Confederation Park on June 7. That takes guts. And a huge chunk of talent. We chatted the evening before her performance with the Symphony. As we walked along the lakeshore behind the Tett and Isabel Bader Centres, she moved slowly and stared at Lake Ontario. “This is the first time I have seen

the lake in three years,” she said. She smiled as she held her violin. She looked at peace. During her stay in Kingston, her parents arrived from Yangzhou. The proud couple wanted to attend Essie’s convocation at the University of Western Ontario. She was also giving them a tour of Kingston before heading to London. Essie Liu is passionate about the violin, but she’s added a new interest. “I still love performance,” she said. “But I’ve added teaching to my focus and interest. During my Master’s program, I explored it a lot. I spent more time in researching pedagogy, especially now that I am specializing in Suzuki education. But it is always important to keep your performance skills when you are a teacher.” During her Master of Music Performance and Literature Degree, there was a great deal of performance practice and studies in research, music history, and professionalism.

But her graduate school years were not as difficult as her first time in Canada. “The most difficult time was at first in Canada,� she said. “I have found that the trick is making the transition. There are a lot of cultural differences to be learned. From experience, I learned a lot. I kept myself in all kinds of workshops that helped me understand the cultural differences.� Essie says that when she plays a piece of music, she feels like she is telling a story. “With every piece of music, there is a story in my mind. The listener feels the story, and we have something in common.�

During her undergraduate training at Queen’s University, Essie received the Kingston Symphony Association Violin Award and represented Kingston during the Ontario Music Festivals Association finals. She volunteered her time at Providence Manor and performed in a fundraising concert at St. Andrew’s Church. She also volunteered with the Chinese and Canadian Heritage Cultural Association and represented China at the Queen’s World-Link Volunteer Program. As much as this gentle, brilliant and talented woman says she owes Canada and Kingston a thanks, our city and country owe her an equal debt of gratitude for all of her contributions.

Kingston Kobras win gold in Cobourg Sports - With an undefeated record of 6-0, the Kingston Kobras U12 Squirt Rep team struck gold in Cobourg this weekend at the annual Paul Currelly fast pitch tournament. The girls were rained out Friday night and thus had to jam four games into a busy Saturday. However, the girls rose to the challenge beating Cobourg 8-6, then Chat O Cats (from Chateauguay, QC) 2-1, then Lac St. Louis (QC) 8-3 and finally Stittsville 13-5. The pitching duties were handled brilliantly by the trio of Emily Swaine, Lacey Clark and Kingston’s ace, Alexa Oriecuia and the bats were firing on all cylinders led by Kieran Raymo who homered 3 times, rookie Rachel Wilkinson who reached base in all games, and veterans Olivia Gilbert and Emma Parslow whose 1-2 punch at the top of the order set the tone for the rest of the team. Emily Moore, Mary Williams and Gracie Bennett provided the solid defense needed to go 4-0 on the day. In the semi-finals on Sunday morning, the girls were in tough against their good friends from Napanee, but the bats fired quickly and some clever base-running meant that the girls got up early and never looked back, taking it by a final of 10-3. In the finals, Kingston faced a tough Cobourg squad who they’d beaten earlier in the round robin. The girls started slowly, but Oriecuia was dominant, not allowing a hit through three solid innings and after Kingston exploded in the bottom of the third, the lead was 7-0. After tacking on two more, Cobourg made a small run scoring 5 in the 6th, but it was too late as Paige Mackey clinched it for the Kingston girls by scoring Clark from third with a single up the middle, followed by a steal of 2nd, 3rd and home on three consecutive pitches. At that point, the mercy was reached and the girls were golden. The team is set to focus on league play and practice for the rest of June. In July they’ll head to Mississauga for the World Series of Softball and then provincials are in August.

New Bellevue House exhibit shows personal side of Sir John A. Macdonald By Mandy Marciniak

mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca

News – Information and sites related to Sir John A. Macdonald are plentiful in the Kingston area; visitors to the city can see his old homes, law offices, and even visit his grave. Now, thanks to a new exhibit at Bellevue House, visitors and community members can also view documents relating to the famous prime minister’s personal life. “The documents are all original and give us new insight into Macdonald’s life,” said George Muggleton, collections manager at Bellevue

House. “The items are on loan from the Library and Archives of Canada and showcase some of the rare treasures that have a direct connection to Macdonald.” The exhibit opened on June 10 and comes just after a refresh to Bellevue House and the adjoining Visitor Centre. Bellevue House was once the home of Sir John A. Macdonald and has been restored to the 1840s period. The house and gardens are kept much as they would have been during the time that Macdonald lived there with his wife and infant son. Recent renovations have made

rooms in the house more accessible and changes to the Visitor Centre allow for an interactive experience. “With this new exhibit we really wanted to take the opportunity to show and highlight the legacy that Macdonald has left behind, especially after 19 years of his leadership,” said Muggleton. “We wanted to highlight some of the important moments in his life and career.” Items in the exhibit include an old school notebook from when Macdonald was 12, receipts from purchases he made, letters of correspondence, fan mail, telegrams

and even Macdonald’s last will and testament. “We also have the oldest known portrait of Macdonald on display and that was painted in about 1842,” said Muggleton. “The whole exhibit is really unique and definitely something to see.” Bellevue House will be offering daily tours of the exhibit and the house throughout July and August and Muggleton hopes that people come out and see the historic site. “By visiting, people can get a better sense of how an up and coming

politician was living in the 1840s. It is the 200th anniversary of Macdonald and being able to come out and see some of these artefacts and objects is pretty exciting.” Bellevue House will also be welcoming the Salon theatre group for performances in August and October and will host a Canada Day bash on July 1. For more information about the exhibit, upcoming events and hours of operation for Bellevue House visit http://www.pc.gc.ca/eng/lhn-nhs/ on/bellevue/index.aspx

I vowed if we ever made it back to Gananoque again, with the promise of “a lovely couple days at the cottageâ€?, I would beg to be left on the farm back in Northcote. It was time to head back to Gananoque, and I helped Aunt Edith round up the chickens, and carry them, one by one down to the boat for our trip back to town.  At least the chickens seem to have enjoyed themselves, and if chickens could feel gratitude, these seemed to have shown it in proper fashion.  There on the grass, just inside the little enclosure, were two freshly laid eggs!

would be eating as soon as she could find the box that had all the food in it.  It didn’t take all day to discover the box of food was somewhere on the dock in Gananoque, and we would be eating whatever we could find in the cottage.  Emerson suggested we could perhaps do in a couple of the chickens.  I was grateful he said it in a whisper, because I knew Aunt Edith would rather do away with one of us kids than one of her chickens! Even though it was a blistering hot day, and everyone else got into their bathing suits, I had no intention of going anywhere near the St. Lawrence.  Because, as always, you could see the heads of a couple black water snakes just waiting for anyone crazy enough to go in for a dip.  I would spend the entire weekend as far away from the water’s edge as I could get.

of the boat, and we tore out of the dock like a bullet out of rifle! I sat close to Mother with my hand gripping the few inches of the boat that were left above water, and was grateful that at least it was a short trip across to the island that I was positive belonged to my rich aunt and uncle. Emerson and Earl were scrunched down in the belly of the boat at the very centre, and a few leather cushions were stacked beside them, which were supposed to save us on our way down to the bottom of the St. Lawrence.  â€œHow much do you want to bet the chickens get first dubs on the cushions if we have to bail out?â€? Emerson hissed. Finally, we pulled into what passed for a dock. â€œDon’t step on the boards at the end,â€? Uncle George said.  We soon found out why.  Audrey who didn’t know any better, hoisted our cardboard box of clothes onto the boards, and they heaved up at the other end, and if she hadn’t been so quick, our change of clothes would have gone down to the bottom of the river. The chickens seemed to know what was expected of them, and they headed for a little wire closed-in plot with Aunt Edith cooing to them as if they knew exactly what she was saying.  She put river water in a bowl, grain in two pie plates, and a couple of apple cores she had in a brown paper bag, said a few kind words, unwrapped Sandy from around her neck, and announced we

Lifestyle – Going any further than into Renfrew with the old Model T, meant an overnight stay.  And so it was, on a warm Saturday morning, we set out for Aunt Edith’s in Gananoque, with a change of clothes for each of us in a cardboard box Mother brought home from Briscoe’s General Store. Father, and my brother Everett, would not be going.  Someone had to milk the cows, and tend the livestock, so with Mother behind the wheel, and we four children piled into the car, we headed out for a trip that would take most of the day.  Emerson would have liked to stay home, but Mother knew that could mean trouble.  â€œNothing to do but watch her darn cat, and those red hens Aunty keeps in the little back yard,â€? he lamented. Aunt Edith and Uncle George Cosh, I thought, must be very rich indeed.  Didn’t they own one of the Thousand Islands?  And didn’t Aunt Edith have her very own beauty parlour with the lovely name Primrose Beauty Shoppe on a painted sign over the door?  Uncle George, I was sure, was just as important as the mayor.  He had his very own office in the Town Hall, and Mother said he knew where every manhole and light switch was in the entire town of Gananoque. Yes, very important indeed were my Aunt Edith and Uncle George. I knew we wouldn’t be spending a lot of time in the little apartment they lived in over the beauty parlour... we would be heading out in Uncle George’s launch before we had time to catch our breath, going over to their very own island. We had to carry everything down to the harbour, where this enormous boat, which I was sure could hold half of Renfrew County, was tied up.  It had to be big, because Aunt Edith would never leave her cat, or her chickens alone in town if she was staying somewhere over night.  And we would be bedded RIDGE CESS AT BAY down in the CoshPRIN cottage, which gave 52

me a gnawing pain in the pit of my stomach. Some of it was excitement, but most of it was plain fear. The boat ride alone was reason enough to cause me to panic.  By the time we loaded the six chickens, unrestrained, Sandy the cat, and all the food and our box of clothes into the boat, it sunk into the St. Lawrence with not more than four inches of boat left out of the water.  I was sure we wouldn’t be six feet out from shore, before we all went down to the bottom of the river, with our bodies washing up at some faraway place miles from Gananoque. Mother and Aunt Edith, the chickens and the cat, climbed into Uncle George’s late model car, and the rest of us had to walk, carrying what was left over to take to the island. Even though the boat was big, it groaned and tilted from side to side, as Uncle George stowed as much as he could under the very front of the boat, the cat was draped around Aunt Edith’s neck like a fur collar, and the chickens happily clucked away, picking away at ants, dead flies and a few insects in the bottom of the boat. My sister Audrey who never liked to look different (Mother said it was her age) hissed she was glad we didn’t know anyone in Gananoque. â€œWe look like a pack of Gypsies.â€? Uncle George sat in an ordinary kitchen chair at the front, turned a key, blue smoke poured out of the tail end

1953 Chevrolet Bel Air hardtop still like new The car was purchased new by a doctor in Toronto and Bernie is keeping it all original except for two modifications that were available when the car rolled off the assembly line in Oshawa more than 60 years ago. The 3-speed column-shift manual transmission has now been replaced with a 2-speed Powerglide automatic, and the manual steering has been replaced with power steering, a new option for Chevrolet in 1953. The Bel Air name first appeared in 1950 on Chevrolet’s new 2-door hardtop introduced that year, a full year-and-a-half before Ford’s first hardtop. In 1953, the Bel Air name was extended to the top-of-the-line 2-door sedan, 4-door sedan, convertible and hardtop, with the less expensive models known as the One-Fifty and Two-Ten. Bernie’s two Chevrolets represent two milestones in the history of this make, long the best-selling car in America (remember Dinah Shore on TV singing “See the USA in your

Lifestyle – Bernie LeBlanc was born in 1941 and lives today in St. Catharines, Ontario, with his wife Sheila. When Bernie was a teenager in New Brunswick, his first car was a 1941 Chev coupe purchased from his uncle for $50. The windshield wipers were worn out, and whenever Bernie drove somewhere on a rainy day, he “borrowed” the wipers from his dad’s 1951 Pontiac. Sometimes he forgot to put them back on, and when his dad turned on his wipers in the rain, Bernie was the first to hear about it! He now owns a beautiful 1949 Chevrolet with modern power train recently featured in this column. In November 2012, Bernie purchased another vintage Chevrolet, this time a 1953 Chev Bel Air 2-door hardtop in beautiful original condition with a blue-and-ivory 2-tone finish. This car won Best of Show Chevrolet at the GM St. Catharines Power Train Show ‘n’ Shine in 2013.

Lifestyle – Summer officially lands this weekend and that means vacation travel time for many of us. To avoid the nightmare of a roadside breakdown with a vehicle full of family members in ‘when do we get there’ vacation mode, here’s a few words to the wise. Having a pre-vacation inspection done with an engine oil and filter change is a great way to get some peace of mind before heading out. Most service garages of all types offer special pricing for this service at this time of year and for the average vehicle it’s often less than $100. If you’re driving an older vehicle (2010 or prior say) consider making that appointment at least a week or so before the trip to accommodate any repairs or maintenance that might require extra time or special-ordered parts. When packing a minivan or SUV for the trip consider that everything you put in the cargo area can become a lethal projectile in the event of a collision. Keep softer items on top and harder ones on the bottom. Invest in a cargo net or two for easy and secure storage. If you need a roof-rack and don’t have one, a trailer-hitch mounted cargo carrier might be a good substitution. On average they can handle more weight that any roof-rack and they’re much easier to access for the vertically-challenged. Our warm wet weather can make for some extra strong musty odours emanating from our vehicles’ heating/air-conditioning units. Mold

and mildew love to grow in vehicle heater boxes and while there are many aerosol treatments on the shelf for this, the easiest way to eliminate the smell is to use the vehicle’s own heater. If your vehicle is affected, turn the heater up to full temp with the fan at a mid-speed setting. Open your windows and take it for a drive (twice the average workday commuting distance should do). You may have to repeat this over one or two days. The dry heat from the vehicle’s heater will reduce the mold and mildew and get rid of the smell. Spare tires and wheel jacks/tools are some of the most neglected items on any vehicle, yet they can be vacation-savers in a pinch. Take the time to check the spare tire air pressure for your vehicle as well as any trailers you might be towing. Don’t just check the jack/tool kit to make sure it’s there; pull out the jack to make sure it works. If you’re towing, make sure the vehicle jack and wheel wrench will work on the trailer or equip your rig accordingly. When having new tires installed (a great idea before a vacation trip), it’s not uncommon for a tire valve mounted pressure sensor to get damaged. Before shelling out the average $70 for a new sensor, ask about getting just the valve if that’s the only part that’s damaged. The largest valve manufacturer Schrader (whose existence predates the automobile) makes replacement valve kits for every vehicle on the road and the average price of a replacement valve is less than $7. It’s Father’s Day this weekend and some of the best collector and show car events are back. From June 19th-21st the 10th Annual FCA Ottawa Ferrari Festival comes to Preston Street with cars parked along the street Friday and Satur-
