DINING OUT WITH CHILDREN
Active children can learn table manners and restaurant behavior early on through practice. These lessons can open children up to new food experiences and help them grow accustomed to social settings.
Do not set your child up to fail by selecting a restaurant that is too fancy or quiet. Save those restaurants for when your company is adults only. A place that is used to noise (and moderate mess) is better.
Bring along some games, toys and other trinkets to keep their attention. Try playing games, such as counting the packets of sugar or finding people wearing red shirts.
Avoid dining out with a tired child, and be prompt in selecting meals and eating. This is not a time to linger, as youngsters’ attention spans and willingness to sit still tend to be minimal. Be prepared to leave with a to-go box if a child proves unruly.
Handy Hacks
* Repurpose coffee filters as holders for your sandwiches. They’re easy to hold and help keep your favorite toppings contained.
* Up-cycle an empty six-pack container into a convenient cookout caddy to hold napkins, condiments and utensils. Not only is it quick to grab and place on the table, but it helps keep napkins from blowing away in a breeze.
* For kabobs, keep wooden skewers from charring by soaking them in water before threading on ingredients.
* Prepare toppings the night before and arrange them in a disposable foil pan for a quick and easy DIY topping bar.

It is no joy to me to sit
On dreamy summer eves, When silently the timid moon
Kisses the sleeping leaves, And all things through the fair hush’d earth
Love, rest—but nothing grieves. Better I like old autumn
With his hair toss’d to and fro, Firm striding o’er the stubble fields When the equinoctials blow.
~Dinah Mulock Craik (1826–1887), “October”

FACTORS TO CONSIDER BEFORE CONVERTING AN ATTIC
Access: Access is another aspect that must adhere to local safety guidelines. Many attics are accessible only through pulldown ladders, but that will have to change if homeowners repurpose their attic spaces. A staircase that complies with local laws will need to be installed, and contractors can work with homeowners to build that and estimate the cost. Homeowners who simply want to put desks in their attics without going with full-fledged conversions are urged to adhere to local access requirements anyway, as they’re intended to ensure residents can safely escape attics in the case of a fire or another emergency.

DID YOU KNOW?
Many an amateur landscaper has encountered grubs while tending to their lawns, but even the most attentive green thumber may have a lawn infested with grubs and not know it. According to the pest and weed experts at Roundup® , grubs often go unnoticed until late summer, when they’ve already done substantial damage to a lawn. Oddly enough, one of the telltales signs of a grub infestation is not the grubs themselves but the animals looking to dine on them. Fully grown grubs make for hearty meals, so homeowners who notice raccoons, skunks, armadillos, and/or birds digging up their lawns may have a grub infestation. That’s because these unwanted guests like to dine on mature grubs who have spent summer feasting on organic matter in the soil. Another sign of a possible grub infestation is a lawn that feels spongy when stepped on. Patches of dead grass that peel back easily are a sign that grubs have eaten the roots that keep healthy grass in place.

* While filming “Jailhouse Rock” in 1957, Elvis Presley inhaled his tooth cap as he slid down a pole in the opening dance number. It lodged in his lung and required surgical removal, but aside from a little hoarseness for a few days, the King made a fairly easy recovery.
* The popular kids’ game “Operation” was invented by John Spinello, a sophomore at the University of Illinois in 1962, as part of a class assignment. Sadly, he only made $500 off the game after selling the prototype.
* By the way, in case you’ve ever wondered, the “patient” in “Operation” is named Cavity Sam.

It is tempting to want to cut back perennials and other greenery so a property looks neat. But as flowers and plants dry and drop to the ground, they help insulate the roots from the cold. They also provide a natural habitat and serve as a winter food source for birds and small animals.

Preserving Native Bulbs
New times bring new technological devices, new generations, new lifestyles, and gardening is not the exception. We crave the new and differentandthereforebetter.Really?
This recalls many gardeners attracted to the new hybrids: the latest color, size, and number of blooms in different vegetables, flowers, and fruits.
Personally, I admire the heirlooms, those plants that were grown in our gardens for centuries, loved and appreciated, and passed down through the generations. So, here it
is, late September, the time to plant those charming, trouble-free, longlasting, and self-proliferating spring bulbs.Many of them have been with usforaverylongtime,suchas:
•OrnithogalumUmbellatum,known toallastheStarofBethlehem,iseasy to grow, and sometimes strays, in gardenssince1593!
•Scillasiberica,orSiberiansquill,as its name implies,survives a negative 40 degrees Farenheight and carpets dapple shade in a flush of blue in AprilthroughMay.
Autumn is tailor-made for getting out of the house to enjoy the great outdoors. With crisp temperatures perfect for strolls or sightseeing and breathtaking scenery awash in bright autumnal hues, autumn landscapes make for the ideal backdrop for weekend plans, including shopping excursions.
Fall is a great season to enjoy festivals, farmer’s markets and craft fairs, as merchants look to liquidate inventory before they prepare for the rush of the upcoming holiday season. Cities, towns, hamlets, and everything in between will host their share of open markets and more with great deals to be had, and fall is an ideal time to visit local shops and stands.
• Another blue charmer, Chionodoxa, known as Glory of the Snow, arrived 100 years later in 1788.
• Muscari or grape hyacinths showeduparoundthesametime.
• Mount Hood daffodil, 16-18 inches high, blooms pale-yellow andfadestoivory.
Enjoy these old-timers and keep historyalive!

The resulting Iran-Contra scandal would rock the Reagan administration.

TIPS FOR COMFORTABLE CAMPING
Tent size and location - Calculate how many people will be on the camping trip and how much space they will need to rest comfortably. Purchase or rent a tent that will provide enough space. Multiple tents also can be used if the goal is to separate family members. The next consideration is where to set up camp. Look for a level area that is relatively free from debris. Clear away any rocks and twigs, as debris under the tent can damage it and make it harder to fall asleep. Families may want to camp a short distance from restroom facilities if they are available, which will make it easier for the midnight bathroom breaks that inevitably crop up.

Here’s a tip
* Cellphones get dirty, especially touch-screen phones. Be sure to wipe the surface of your phone daily during cold and flu season. Use an approved antiseptic wipe for electronics.
* I have found myself with an abundance of peppers from my garden, so I cleaned and chopped them, then froze them. I am able to take out what I need, and they won’t spoil. -- C.E. in Florida
* To keep windshield wipers clean between replacement periods, dampen a so cloth with rubbing alcohol and wipe the length of the blade.

The Iron Fireman of Honeoye Falls: A Storied Past of Good-Natured Thievery
EDITED BY SUZIE WELLS
When you travel through Honeoye Falls, chances are you take in the falls themselves or check out the small shops around the four corners, but don’t even notice the Iron Man standing tall atop East Street’s Village Hall. e five-foot-tall iron figure of yesteryear’s fireman dons a helmet, red shirt, blue pants, and holds a fireman’s horn, a popular sounding signal. Even locals pass the figure without notice, but it has quite an amusing storied past, interconnecting area fire departments.
Originally property of the fire department in St. Catherine’s, Ontario, Canada, the Iron Man was a symbol typically carried in fireman’s parades and at conventions. Since it was such a key symbol, fire departments tried to “steal” the Iron Man for possession until the following year’s convention.
At one point, a fire company in Rochester, NY gained possession of the Iron Man, and rumor has it that Albion may also have had it. Later, by agreement or otherwise, the figure came to Avon. Firemen there decided to reinforce the figure and place it on display atop their fire hall. e Honeoye Falls firemen looked with covetous eyes at this cherished trophy and decided to act.
According to the Honeoye Falls Fire Department, the following is first-hand information gathered in 1963 from three firemen who took part in the escapade: Capt. Charles B. Pierce, Harry Pilsbury, and William Desmann. e raiders planned their attack, gathering ropes, saws, files, and other tools, then boarded a carriage and wagon for a cold night’s ride to Avon. A last-minute addition to their equipment was a ladder borrowed from their own fire department headquarters.
Finding the Avon firehouse deserted, the three men set to work. Almost all of their plan succeeded and two men reached the roof when the alarm went out. e Honeoye Falls men got away but without their ladder. e following morning as little as possible was said about the attempted robbery, and it was assumed the failed plot would be abandoned.
However, minds were sharp and the HoneoyeFallsvolunteers were determined. e following night, October 29, 1891, the HF raiders made another trip to Avon, while Avon firefighters were supposed to be in the Livingston House celebrating a birthday party, leaving the firehouse guard down.
Between 1:30 and 2:00am, the HF men crept stealthily along the Avon fire property and set up their equipment. ey stationed guards at strategic spots facing Main Street to warn of passersby. Others working from the ground handed up climbing rigs and tools for those reaching the roo op. Still other men stood in the dark alley holding strings attached to the climbers’ elbows to signal warning if the enemy approached. ose reaching the Iron Man carried saws to remove him from his perch.
e upright bar holding the Iron Man was inches thick cast steel, very difficult to saw. With each slight pull of the cord attached to their arms, work halted. Twice the signal was given, once when two railroad workers stopped on Main Street to bid each other good night, and again when a guest from a nearby hotel opened a window to gaze out into the cold night air. Apparently, no one noticed anything unusual going on in their quiet, peaceful little town.
When sawing was complete, the cutting men forgot to rope the steel figure, and the Iron Man went rattling down the roof side and crashed with a deafening thud in the alley below.
e Honeoye Falls Marauders quickly gathered their tools and the Iron Man, rushed to their wagon and carriage, and le Avon before the community knew of its loss.
At dawn in Honeoye Falls, the crusaders, gloating over the success, woke the villagers as they drove into the village. A er chaining the Iron Man to a counter at Pride’s Hardware store and assigning two guards, theyassembledatthebarintheWilcoxHousetoacceptcongratulations.
Shortly, the local gunsmith, Mike Tucker, reconstructed the body of the Iron Man to withstand the weather of both winter snows and summer rains and to attach a rod of Swedish steel through its center. Inspired by Avon’s site selection, the Honeoye Falls firemen erected the reconstructed Iron Man to its high post on the Village Hall spire in Fall 1891.
Several fire companies, such as Rush, Lima, Geneseo, and West Bloomfield, have tried to remove the Iron Man over the years, but without success. He remains there today as tribute to the daring and fortitude of those who captured it and as tributetothethousands of volunteer fireman of the nation who give tirelessly to protect life and property from fire. is why the Iron Man is the official emblem of the Honeoye Falls Fire Department and why all HF apparatus include the words “Home of the Iron Fireman.” If you happen upon Honeoye Falls’ intrepid firefighters or attend the Fireman’s Parade in June, see if you can spot the figure and its references around town.

HOW COUPLES CAN BENEFIT FROM HIRING LOCAL WEDDING VENDORS: Individuals who take great strides to conserve resources by reducing their energy consumption and protecting the environment often find that shopping local is beneficial. Local vendors are more likely to source their materials from other local businesses, reducing their carbon footprints along the way. For example, local caterers may rely on local farmers for their foods, affording couples the chance to host eco-friendly or even farm-to-table weddings.

Nothing speaks comfort like fall, and nothing speaks fall like wrapping our hands around a warm beverage. As the temperature drops and days become shorter, lay cozily on the couch, turn on the T.V., and let the powerful scent of apple, nutmeg, and cinnamon fill your home — it’s time to celebrate National Hot Mulled Cider Day. While most are acquainted with mulled ciders, on September 30 we bump it up a notch and mull it with spices, cinnamon, cloves, orange peels, and nutmeg to celebrate the arrival of fall.

It was one of those perfect English autumnal days which occur more frequently in memory than in life. The rich colours of grass and earth were intensified by the mellow light of a sun almost warm enough for spring...

DID YOU KNOW?
Broadening one’s horizons through crafting can be a worthwhile pursuit. Crafting can serve as a relaxing pastime and provide an opportunity to learn rewarding skills. Learning to crochet is one way for men and women to combine creativity and practicality. Crochet is a form of handwork using yarn and a crochet hook. According to the Crochet Guild of America, there’s no way to know just how old the art of crochet is. However, crochet expert Annie Potter has said the modern form of the art originated in the 16th century, primarily in France and England. Others surmise crocheting traces its origins to Arabia before it spread westward through various Mediterranean trade routes.

TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH
By Keith Roach, M.D.
How to Best Utilize Compression Stockings
DEAR DR. ROACH: Would you please address how to use compression socks? I sit most of the day, so wearing the socks helps my legs to feel less heavy and tired by the end of the day. Are there people who should not wear them? And what about wearing them during exercise?
-- C.S.
ANSWER: Compression stockings are most commonly used in people with chronic venous insufficiency, a common condition in middle-aged to older people. The major symptom is swelling in the feet and lower legs. The swelling is usually minimal or gone in the morning and gets worse during the day, especially with prolonged standing and even sitting.
The underlying problem is that the veins, which carry blood from the legs back to the heart, get leaky over decades, and the fluid accumulates in the legs under the force of gravity. Your doctor can prescribe the right size, length and strength of stocking based on your personal condition. The fact that you feel better with compression stockings suggests that you might have venous insufficiency, but it’s still a good idea to ask your doctor about them. Compression stockings are pretty safe, but should not be worn by people with serious reduction in arterial blood flow to the legs.
Arterial disease is completely different from venous insufficiency. It’s caused by blockages in the arteries that carry blood from the heart to the legs. An expert, such as a vascular surgeon, is an appropriate consultant for a person with arterial insufficiency before they consider using compression stockings.
Unless you have moderate to severe arterial disease (in which case you should check with your doctor if you aren’t sure), there is no harm from wearing compression stockings during exercise. There may even be some benefit. Compression stockings should not be worn by those with an acute clot in a major leg vein (a deep venous thrombosis). Once the clot is stabilized for a few days with medication, compression stockings can help treat and even prevent swelling in the affected leg.
People with moderate to severe heart failure should exercise care before using compression stockings, which put the leaked-out fluid back into the circulation and can worsen heart failure. Again, this is an issue to discuss with your regular doctor or cardiologist prior to using compression stockings on your own.
Finally, severe venous insufficiency can cause breakdown in the skin. A person with ulcers or open wounds, or with any kind of acute infection, should be evaluated and treated prior to using compression stockings. A wound care nurse is an ideal consultant in this case.

KIDS AND SLEEP
School-aged children are busier than ever before, and some may be sacrificing sleep to accommodate their lifestyles. The National Sleep Foundation says school-aged children need between nine and 11 hours of sleep each night to function at a healthy level. Sleep deprivation can be linked to a host of health ailments, including issues affecting the development of the brain. Growing evidence suggests that lack of sleep can cause disturbances in metabolic rates that could affect the risk for cardiovascular disease, diabetes and obesity. A recent study from Johns Hopkins University found that, for each additional hour of sleep a child gets, the risk of that child becoming overweight or obese decreases by 9 percent. Children who slept the least, according to the research, had a 92 percent higher risk of being overweight or obese compared to children with longer sleep duration. The NSF adds that poor or inadequate sleep can lead to mood swings, behavioral problems and cognitive problems that impact kids’ ability to learn in school. To promote good sleep habits in children, parents and other caregivers can establish consistent sleep/ wake routines; ensure children avoid excess caffeine, particularly late in the day; create a cool, dark sleep environment; keep televisions and other media devices out of bedrooms; and help children work through stressors that may impact sleep.

RESOLVE TO REDUCE SCREEN TIME
Make a list of goals. Rather than reaching for a phone, Digital Detox experts suggest keeping a list of goals and experiences in one’s pocket that they can refer to when they’re tempted to look at their screens. Then they can engage in a real-world experience instead of simply looking at their phones.
Leaves cascading down from trees indicate the arrival of autumn. However, colorful and awe-inspiring autumn leaves can be a hazard if left to lie on the ground too long.
Fallen leaves form a dense insulator to protect trees’ roots and prevent competing plants from growing. Decomposing leaves also provide nutrients for the tree. But wet leaves can be a safety hazard and leaves left on the lawn through the winter can pose a threat to the grass. These are just a couple of reasons why so much effort is placed on leaf clean-up in the fall.

Thank you to my “garbage plate” angel
I am a female senior citizen with poor hand movement due to arthritis. My foolish self thought I could handle carrying my huge garbage plate takeout container from the restaurant to my car. However I was not able to park in a handicapped spot and so on the way to my further away space, I dropped the whole container! Luckily not much fell out and a very kind gentleman was in the parking lot to help me pick it up. He also noted that my plate hadn’t come with diced raw onion. “That’s integral to a plate,” he said. So true! Luckily he had some diced onion leftover from his plate he donated to mine. I deeply enjoyed this meal. Thanks to that parking lot angel and I will pay it forward!
Stopped Traffic!
Thank you to everyone who stopped their cars on Veteran’s Memorial and to everyone who helped me catch my dog after he slipped his harness! I cannot express how relieved I am that he is safe and sound, and the recipient of a new, better fitting harness!
Inconsiderate dog owners
Please, dog owners (not all by any means, but many of you), leash your dogs! Just because you love your dog like a child doesn’t mean that I do. We are fortunate enough to have many terrific walking and hiking trails in the area. Nothing ruins a morning jog or an evening stroll like an untrained dog barreling towards you as the owner says “don’t worry, he’s friendly.” Guess what? I don’t care! It is about time for legal enforcement of the signs stating the fines for unleashed dogs!
Local elections
Am I the only one who’s already sick of the commercials, flyers, and in person discussions of anyone who spends more time attacking their opponents and less time saying what they will do for us?
Overuse of perfume/cologne
Attention aids, nurses, people in the medical field, home health aids or visitors to the hospitals, senior apartments or nursing homes. Overuse of perfume/ cologne that lingers in the hallways makes many elderly people ill. Please consider the necessity of having to wear it in these places. It affects people with asthma, COPD, and many other illnesses. Respect their living space. It would be so much appreciated.

PET OBESITY IS A GROWING PROBLEM
ThePurinaPetCareCenterfound that overweight pets may live two years less than ideal weight pets. Reduced life span is not the only problem, as carrying extra pounds can contribute to various maladies. These include osteoarthritis and poor joint health, type 2 diabetes, ligament injuries, heart and respiratory disease, kidney disease, and cancer.
STRANGE BUT TRUE
By
Lucie Winborne
* One person in 20 has an extra rib, and they are most often men.
* Fearing that someone would murder him in the recreation yard at Alcatraz prison, gangster Al Capone received permission to spend rec time practicing his banjo in the shower room.
* Female cats are mostly right-pawed, while male cats are more frequently leftpawed.
* A centuries-old Japanese tradition holds that if a sumo wrestler can make your baby cry, the baby will live a healthy life! During a special ceremony, parents hand their infants to wrestlers who not only bounce the babies up and down but sometimes even roar in their faces to start the waterworks. As one mom, Mae Shige, remarked of her son at a 2014 event: “He’s not a baby that cries much, but today he cried a lot for us and we are very happy about it.”
PAW’S CORNER
Cats get allergies too!
DEAR PAW’S CORNER: My cat, Tushy, sneezes several times a day, and her eyes water almost nonstop. is has been happening for a couple of weeks. She didn’t seem to have this issue before. My local veterinarian’s office is booked up for another two months, so I’m not sure what I can do in the meantime. Can you help? -- Harriet G.,
Roanoke, Virginia
DEAR HARRIET: It sounds like your cat is suffering from an allergy to something in her environment. at could be airborne irritants like pollen, dust or molds. Or, it could be a reaction to something in her food.
You can try to figure out what’s causing her reaction in a couple of ways. First, dust and clean your home thoroughly, and consider adding an air purifier with a HEPA filter in the room that Tushy spends the most time in.
Next, try a different brand of pet food for a couple of weeks to see if that makes any difference. Some cats are sensitive to certain ingredients in pet foods, and because those ingredients vary from brand to brand, it’s difficult to figure out which one is causing the allergy.
When Tushy is able to see the veterinarian, bring along your notes about her symptoms and what effect, if any, the environmental and dietary changes above had on improving her condition. e vet can offer additional treatment and support, such as adding essential fatty acids to her diet or prescribing a steroid to help with her symptoms.
In the meantime, monitor Tushy’s symptoms closely. If they suddenly get much worse, or if she becomes lethargic, vomits frequently or shows other signs of serious illness, take her to an emergency vet immediately.
