DID YOU KNOW? According to the Environmental Protection Agency, air currents can carry pesticides that were applied to nearby properties. That means even people who do not apply pesticides in their lawns and gardens can still be at risk of exposure to these potentially harmful chemicals. People concerned by the prospect of being exposed to the pesticides being applied by their neighbors can stay indoors with their children and pets while the substances are being applied. Those who live near fields and parks where pesticides are routinely applied can plant hardy, thick-branched trees to reduce their risk of airborne exposure. The EPA notes that such plants and shrubs can serve as buffers against airborne pesticides, essentially acting as walls around a property that prevent gusty winds from blowing pesticides into yards and gardens.
Each mumbered row contains two clues and two answers. e two answers differ from each other by only one letter, which has already been inserted. For example, if you exchange the A from MASTER for an I, you get MISTER. Do not change the order of the letters.

The History Channel
* On Nov. 15, 1777, after 16 months of debate, the Continental Congress, sitting in its temporary capital of York, Pennsylvania, agrees to adopt the Articles of Confederation and Perpetual Union. Not until March 1, 1781, would the last of the 13 states, Maryland, ratify the agreement.
* On Nov. 11, 1885, George Patton, one of the great American generals of World War II, is born in San Gabriel, California. Patton was controversial, known to make eccentric claims that he was a direct descendant of great military leaders of the past through reincarnation.
* On Nov. 13, 1953, a member of the Indiana Textbook Commission calls for the removal of references to the book “Robin Hood” from textbooks used by the state’s schools. She claimed that Robin Hood was a communist because he robbed the rich and gave it to the poor.
* On Nov. 9, 1965, Roger Allen LaPorte, a 22-year-old member of the Catholic Worker movement, immolates himself in front of the United Nations headquarters in New York. Before dying, LaPorte, who was against war, declared that he did it as a religious act.

IColonel William Prescott Chapter of the DAR in Wayne County:
Honoring Veterans, Patriots, and Students Through Tradition and Service
BY SUZIE WELLS
n Wayne County, the Colonel William Prescott Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) actively preserves and promotes our nation’s history through an array of outreach programs, events, and historical preservation projects.
On October 7th and October 27th, Chapter members, Barb VanHanegan and Maureen Quigley, welcomed home veterans from a Washington DC Honor Flight. VanHanegan and Quigley greeted the veterans at Rochester Airport with carnations—a symbol of gratitude and respect for the sacrifices they made in defense of freedom.
is gesture was part of a broader commitment by the chapter to honor all veterans, including participating in Wreaths Across America, supporting local veteran organizations such as Williamson’s American Legion Riders (who collect and deliver food to needy veterans in the county), and taking part in memorial events across the county.
Serving Wayne County since founding in 1917, these women aim to perpetuate the memory and spirit of America’s early patriots, those who helped America achieve independence. is Wayne County chapter focuses on veteran outreach, student scholastic and community service awards, and conservation education.
In a notable project led by the organization’s Regent, Helen Camp, the chapter currently documents Revolutionary War patriots from the area, compiling records and officially marking graves of over 260 patriots who either lived or were buried in Wayne County. In September 2024, the chapter officially marked the graves of patriots John McLouth and Gilbert Hooker at Maple Grove Cemetery in Clyde and Ezekiel Scott at Hubbard Cemetery in Butler.
In advance of 2026, the 250th anniversary of America’s independence, Camp says, “DAR as well as SAR (Sons of the American Revolution), villages, towns, states, and [the] federal government have been working hard to honor those who fought for our independence.”
In addition to marking graves, the chapter helps local historical societies and cemeteries applying for Pomeroy Foundation markers, which recognize Revolutionary War veterans buried in their cemeteries.
In 2025, DAR officially marks the graves of 7-8 patriots buried in the East Palmyra Cemetery. For this project, Camp worked with historians, Don Wilkins and Lucy Bahr, to earn the Pomeroy sign for the cemetery, and the Col William Prescott Chapter is honored to officially mark the graves in the spring. “It’s been a powerful way for us to preserve our history and honor those who fought for independence,” Camp says. e DAR’s commitment extends beyond history and veterans, awarding outstanding seniors from each of the 11 Wayne County high schools with the American History and Good Citizen Awards. ese awards recognize students who excel in academics, citizenship, and community service, fostering a sense of patriotism and leadership. Patti Squier and Edith Farrington organize the award ceremony, inviting students, families, and officials to celebrate the accomplishments of these young citizens.
e chapter also takes an active role in conservation education, led by Conservation Chair Barb VanHanegan. Recent projects include tree planting and distributing pollinator seed packets at the Lyons Farmer’s Market to promote awareness about the importance of pollinators like bees and butterflies in sustaining local agriculture.
With dedication to history, veterans, youth, and the environment, the Colonel William Prescott Chapter of the DAR stands as a beacon of service and patriotism in Wayne County. Members actively contribute to community initiatives, from food drives to environmental conservation projects, making DAR membership a way to honor both ancestry and community.
e chapter welcomes all who share their values to attend monthly meetings at the Park Presbyterian Church in Newark. All DAR members trace ancestry back to Revolutionary War patriots, and the chapter’s Registrar, Ann Sewert, helps with genealogical research for those interested in joining.

The origins of Veterans Day can be traced to the ending of World War I nearly a century ago.Known at the time as “The Great War,” World War I officially ended on June 28, 1919 with the signing of the Treaty of Versailles in France. But the fighting had actually ended seven months earlier when an armistice between the Allies and Germany went into effect on November 11, 1918. The following November United States President Woodrow Wilson declared November 11 “Armistice Day” in honor of the cessation of the hostilities, and the day became a federal holiday in 1938. That act was amended in 1954 after veterans service organizations, in recognition of the efforts of soldiers who fought in World War II,asked that the day be renamed “Veterans Day” so it honored all soldiers and not just those who fought in World War I.

TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH
By Keith Roach, M.D.
How Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Affects Older Women
DEAR DR. ROACH: I had all the symptoms of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) when I was younger. I could go six months without having my period. I had all the other symptoms, too, like oily skin and facial hair. It’s a terrible thing for a young teenage girl. I also had trouble getting pregnant; though, fortunately, Clomid worked well for me during both of my pregnancies.
My question is, how does PCOS affect older women? My doctor doesn’t know. Is this why my hair is thinning so badly? What else can I expect now that I’m older? (I’m 66 now, and I had menopause at 51.) What can I do about it? I still have hot flashes and thinning hair. -- L.L.P.
ANSWER: I’m sorry that you aren’t getting good advice. PCOS doesn’t go away after menopause, but it’s harder to diagnose. There aren’t good data to help guide treatment, so understanding what’s happening at a biochemical level is important. Although cysts in the ovaries are usually seen with PCOS, the most important parts of the diagnosis have more to do with androgen excess (male hormones) and abnormal ovulation. Insulin resistance is also an important part of PCOS, with or without obesity.
The androgen excess is responsible for oily skin and facial hair, and it’s partially responsible for insulin resistance. As women age, most androgen levels tend to return to normal, but women still may have some residual symptoms. Although any woman can get female-pattern hair loss (overall thinning of the hair, often worst in the center part), women with PCOS are at a higher risk for developing this type.
However, women with PCOS may also occasionally develop male-pattern hair loss (a receding hairline and thinning on the crown) when the ovaries produce excess male hormones and fewer female hormones. Treatment with the antiandrogen medication finasteride seems particularly promising, and topical (or low-dose oral) minoxidil can be helpful. A dermatologist who specializes in hair loss should be the expert in the management of PCOS-associated female-pattern hair loss.
In addition, the excess male hormones may play a role in increasing a postmenopausal woman’s risk for heart disease. HDL cholesterol levels tend to be lower in postmenopausal women with PCOS. The standard calculators to help a clinician decide when to start medication (such as a statin) to reduce the risk of heart disease are likely to underestimate the risk. Thus, diet and exercise are very important for women with PCOS. Hot flashes do not seem to be worsened by PCOS. Although hormone replacement can be used in women with hot flashes and PCOS, it is especially risky in a woman of 66 due to the increased risk of heart disease. Nonhormonal treatment, such as venlafaxine or fezolinetant, is my recommendation.

Finally, insulin resistance is present in over half of all women with PCOS, so regular evaluations of blood sugar levels and A1C levels are important to diagnose prediabetes or overt diabetes as quickly as possible. Again, diet, exercise and sometimes medication are even more important for women with PCOS, to help reduce the risk for developing diabetes. © 2024 North America Synd., Inc. All Rights Reserved
clinical depression appear to have physical changes in their brains. In addition, naturally occurring brain chemicals known as neurotransmitters likely play a role in depression. The Mayo Clinic states changes in the function and effect of these neurotransmitters and how they interact with neurocircuits involved in maintaining mood stability may play a significant role in depression and its treatment.
In addition to biological factors in the brain, hormones can impact rates of depression or even trigger it. These hormone shifts may be a leading reason why women have higher incidence rates of depression than men. Depression is more common in people whose blood relatives also have the condition. Therefore, those with a family history of depression may be more likely to get it than those without such a connection.

PAW’S CORNER
By Sam Marzotta
DEAR PAW’S CORNER: My next-door neighbor puts out food for all of the outdoor cats in the area. at includes a lot of strays who are now mingling with the cats who have homes. She even buys specialty cat food if she thinks they don’t like what she’s offering. I think this is a dangerous situation, because the cats may be exposed to diseases from the strays. What should I say to her to stop this? -- Concerned Next Door
DEAR NEXT DOOR: If you’re on polite terms with the neighbor, go over and talk to her about the issue, calmly. Explain your concerns and let her know that some of those cats have homes and owners who may not be happy about their cats being fed somewhere else. However, if you’re not comfortable speaking directly with her -- or if the conversation accomplishes nothing -- you will need to consider other routes.
If you have a neighborhood HOA, bring up the issue in a community meeting. e cats’ owners may not be aware of what’s going on. If you don’t have an HOA, try discussing the issue with the other owners directly. Explain that their cats are at risk of contracting diseases common among strays, like FIV (feline immunodeficiency virus) or could be injured in a territorial fight. e least painful solution is for cat owners to keep their outdoor cats inside and away from the neighbor. en contact your local animal control. Now, animal control doesn’t always intervene in these situations, but if they feel that the strays are a danger to other pets, they may come out and try to trap and remove them to a shelter, or at least have a talk with your neighbor about putting food out.

Here’s A Tip
BYLINE: By JoAnn Derson
* For every degree you lower your thermostat during the heating season, you generally reduce your energy costs by 3% daily. Also, turn down the temperature setting on your hot water heater.
* Here’s a no-fail strategy for raking up leaves: Rake leaves into a single long line, preferably onto a sidewalk. en turn a large garbage can on its side and sweep the leaf pile into the can, breaking to empty leaves into bags as needed. e raking goes much quicker when done in “stripes.” And bagging is faster as well.
* If you have an ink stain on fabric, try blotting it with hairspray. Saturate the ink spot with hairspray and blot using a clean white cloth or non-decorated paper towel. Repeat until all the ink is gone. Make sure you test on an inconspicuous area first.

Veterans Day is an annual holiday when veterans of the armed forces are honored and celebrated in the United States. Many people confuse Veterans Day with Memorial Day. While both days honor members of the armed forces, there’s a distinction between the two holidays. Memorial Day,which is celebrated in May, is a day designated for remembering servicemen and servicewomen who died while serving. Veterans Day, which is observed in November, honors all military veterans.

Money spent on political campaigns
It is unbelievable the amount of money spent in and on political campaigns. Millions are spent with the conventions and all the campaign mailings, along with the traveling and campaigning. All of that money could be spent in so many needed areas.
Seasonal fare - Many fall harvest festivals are built on the foods harvested in the fall for that region. In Wisconsin, that may be cranberries, while in Massachusetts it could be oysters. Apples also turn up in many areas starting in September. For those who can’t wait to bite into food picked at the peak of its season, a fall harvest festival can’t be beat.
