FAMILY LOST EVERYTHING TO FIRE Continued from page 1

low, and their two dogs on Oct. 22 when she entered the laundry room, thought she smelled something strange, and then noticed smoke pooling under the ceiling. She immediately rushed her daughters out of the house and secured them in her vehicle off the property. She was then assisted by passersby to relocate the dogs. "When she called me, I was at Independent (grocery store) - I dropped everything and ran," said Diane Cronk, Julianna's mother. On her way out of town on Highway 43, Cronk no-

ticed a large cloud of black smoke on the horizon. "I felt sick because I just knew it was the smoke from Jules' house," she said. "By the time I got there at just past 3:20 (p.m.), there was pretty much nothing left." Luckily, no one was hurt as a result of the fire, but the family has been displaced and are currently staying with relatives as they piece their lives back together and search for a new home. On the day after the incident, a Go Fund Me page was set up by friends of the family to support them in their recovery. Over just two days, more than $4,000 had been raised through over 50 individual donations. Now, over $7,000 has been raised in just one week through 80 donations, nearing the $10,000 goal. "The outpouring of love and generosity from the community has been incredible," said Cronk. "We couldn't be more grateful." The cause of the fire is still uncertain. Donations of any monetary value will go a long

way to help. Click here to visit the Go Fund Me page. Heather Black, a friend of the family and creator of the Go Fund Me page, is also organizing an online auction. Any donations for the auction or things like children's clothing, toys, and restaurant gift cards can be dropped off at Get Cronk'd Fitness Studio or the Academy of Expressive Dance in Kemptville. There are nearly 100 items up for grabs on the auction page, including an eight-pack of training sessions at Get Cronk'd Fitness Studio, cleaning/organizing services from Blissful Home, a $100 gift card from Park Lane Jewellery, unicorn Christmas ornaments from Ally Bally Crafts, and much more. The Facebook page for the auction can be found under "Online Auction for the Melnick-MacDonald's Family Fire." For more information, contact Heather at heather.black@hotmail.com.

Paulina Hrebacka/Metroland On the afternoon of Oct. 22, local business owners and parents lost their home to a structure fire at 10163 Cameron Road, located in the Mountain area. A Go Fund Me page started by their friends has since raised over $4,000 for the family. Pictured: Standing outside their downtown Kemptville storefront, Hustle & Heart, the Melnick-MacDonalds enjoy the Canada Day parade on July 1. From left: Chris, Aurora, Julianna, and Willow. tion item, Julianna has recently made a special request for her eldest daughter, Willow, on Facebook. "For anyone who has ever met our three-year-old, you know Willow is an old lady in a toddler's body. Her love for memories, mementos, and kindness is

unlike any preschooler I've ever seen and her memory for details is amazing." Julianna said Willow has been clinging to any idea of 'home' since the fire, and as such, they would appreciate any sort of card, drawing, note, or family photo.

"We will use these pictures, notes, cards, etc. to help make her future room a bit more familiar, warm, and homey," Julianna posted. Letters can be addressed to the family at PO Box 1677, Kemptville, ON, K0G 1J0.

OWNER OF KEMPTVILLE'S SALTASTIC NAMED ENTREPRENEUR OF THE YEAR PAULINA HREBACKA phrebacka@metroland.com As a result of her struggle to find a natural and effective remedy for her sinusitis, Kemptville resident Karen Quigley decided to conduct her own research into some of the other options out there, and discovered salt therapy; also known as halotherapy. Now, Quigley is the owner of Saltastic halotherapy lounge in Kemptville, and was recently recognized by the Leeds Grenville Small Business Enterprise Centre (LGSBEC) with the Entrepreneur of the Year award. She spoke with The Advance on Oct. 29 about her business and the LGSBEC, which provided

supports for Saltastic to get up and running. Before Quigley found salt therapy, she'd tried the synthetic fluticasone (Flonase), as well as various prescription remedies for her nasal symptoms, but nothing proved effective. "They just weren't working," said Quigley, "my body was getting used to it, so it would work for about a day, and then it was over." She travelled to Florida, where the alternative therapy is common and vastly researched, and learned more about the many benefits of pink Himalayan salt, which is a natural anti-inSee HALOTHERAPY, page 5

KREEPY KEMPTVILLE DRAWS 400 TRICK-OR-TREATERS EVENT HIGHLIGHTS BUSINESS, TOURISM IN DOWNTOWN KEMPTVILLE PAULINA HREBACKA phrebacka@metroland.com It was another successful Kreepy Kemptville trick-or-treat trail for businesses in downtown Kemptville on Oct. 27. The annual event, organized by the Old Town Kemptville BIA (business improvement area), brings participants into local businesses to collect treats and take part in Halloween-themed games and kids' activities. Many business owners involved consider Kreepy Kemptville to be a significant boost for local economic development, busi-

ness, and tourism. "Kreepy Kemptville was a huge success," said Debbie Wilson, chair of the BIA. "Over 400 kids came out." Wilson reported that in addition to the 20 participating businesses, a number of other local professionals not located within the BIA's downtown footprint came on board at their own cost to take part in the event. Wilson is also co-owner of Grahame's Bakery at 115 Clothier Street East. She said her team served 325 Kreepy cookies throughout the day and sold out at 1 p.m. with an hour left to go, so they started serving chocolate chip. Melissa Button from CIBC handed out treats to costumed kids and estimates that the bank received well over 300 visi-

tors. "It must have been about 350," she said. "It was so busy!" The route brought families to a variety of shops, restaurants, and service providers located throughout the downtown core, stretching from the south end of Prescott Street down the main drag and through the Clothier/ Rideau/Sanders triangle. This year, an information kiosk that the BIA requested of council during the 2018 budget deliberations was installed just in time for Kreepy Kemptville, displaying a map of the participating busi-

nesses. The kiosk is intended to improve tourism in North Grenville, promote the use of local trails, and create more of a cyclist-friendly community. Kreepy Kemptville is just one event that the Old Town Kemptville BIA organizes to attract residents and tourists to the downtown core. In the spring, the popular Easter Bunny Trail brings participants on a chocolate egg hunt, and on Saturday, Dec. 8, Downtown Christmas in Kemptville will celebrate the most wonderful time of the year with horse-drawn wagon rides, marshmallowroasting over open fires, carolling, and more. For more information on upcoming events, like and follow Old Town Kemptville BIA on Facebook.

flammatory. "When I tried it, I thought it was the best thing ever," she said. "In Europe, they've been using it for years. They have it in their hospitals. In Poland, they will try salt rooms as a preventive measure, and if that doesn't work, they will then go to medicine." The earliest reports of salt spas date back to 12th century Poland. According to Quigley, the salt has the ability to take away the symptoms of everything from a common cold to cystic fibrosis, including ear and sinus infections, bronchitis, pneumonia, and asthma. "I'm in there once a week, and the symptoms haven't come back," she said. "As an anti-inflammatory, it opens up all of your airways." Aside from respiratory issues, salt therapy is also effective in treating skin conditions such as acne or eczema, and is helpful to people with arthritis and joint pain. Quigley has lived in Kemptville for nearly 12 years now and opened Saltastic in July of 2017 after she completed the Starter Company Plus program through the LGSBEC. The program granted Quigley $5,000 towards her business and put her through two days of business planning, six weeks of business coaching, and three sessions of one-on-one consultation to make sure that she was using the tools provided. "It was great," she said. "There are little things that you don't know, going into business - I thought I knew enough, but I learned a few new little tricks." It was on Oct. 25 that Quigley attended the Bridges to Better Business Conference in Brockville, unaware that she would receive the Entrepreneur of the Year award in recognition of her success. "Anyone thinking about starting a business should apply to this program," said Quigley. "You never know what you're going to learn, and Wendy (Onstein) and Jeanette (Johnston) are there for you if you have questions. They expose you to so much, and it really puts your business in perspective - it gets you thinking." Quigley added that it was an

invaluable experience to receive business coaching from Kevin Savoy and Karen McDonald Hurley. Saltastic attracts clients from all over eastern Ontario who come to the luxurious salt rooms to relax and heal. Quigley said consistency is key with salt therapy, because one session might relieve a cold, but it won't last forever. "That's why you have to come back," she explained. Her five-year plan for Saltastic includes the installation of saltwater floating pools, as well as an infrared sauna. Currently, Saltastic is offering a three-session introductory package to visitors. The full range of services is available at www.Saltastic.ca. There are two salt rooms for adults and one for children to play in as if it were a sand box; but with salt, instead. All of the rooms have salt diffused into the air, which is breathed in naturally and cannot be felt, seen, or tasted. Quigley is currently working on having salt installed in one of the adult rooms to give it a beachlike floor similar to the kids' room. Quigley had the Himalayan salt in the rooms transported by boat from Pakistan. In addition to halotherapy services, Saltastic offers a beauty line of all-natural self-care products such as soaps, bath bombs and salts, moisturizers, and more. There is also an antiaging skin product line infused with Himalayan salt, and other goodies such as teas and salted caramels. The salt rooms are bookable by appointment for 45-minute sessions, which begin every hour on the hour from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Wednesday, 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Thursday and Friday, and 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturdays. Saltastic is closed on Sundays. The facility is wheelchair accessible and located within Community Square at 2727 County Road 43 in Kemptville.

This November, the North Grenville Community Foundation will be hosting the first-ever North Grenville Charity Expo, an event its organizers say will allow all of North Grenville's various charities and not-for-profit groups to meet, network and co-ordinate. "Very often, we see different charities in the community competing with each other, sometimes holding events on the same dates," says the NGCF's Daren Givoque. "That in turn leads to a division, or splitting, of the potential donor base. People obviously can't attend two events at once!"

The charity expo hopes to facilitate an ongoing dialogue between charity leaders so that the various groups around the region can each make themselves heard without stepping on the toes of others. The two-part program will begin with a catered breakfast, followed by a panel discussion, and a time for charity leaders to network with each other. Following a two-hour lunch break, the doors will then swing open to the general public; each charity attending the morning session will have the opportunity to host a table in what will essentially be a charity trade show, allowing members of the community to learn more about the

work the various charities do and perhaps guide them in directing their donations heading into 2019. The North Grenville Charity Expo will be held at the North Grenville Municipal Centre on Nov. 10, beginning at 8 a.m. (charities portion) and 2 p.m. (public portion). Admission is free to members of the public; charities may reserve their $25 tickets by visiting Eventbrite.ca. Seating is limited, so charity leaders are encouraged to book their tickets early!

The trustee results of the Monday, Oct. 22, election are as follows: • Ward 1 - Don Cram (incumbent) • Ward 2 - Bill MacPherson (acclaimed) • Ward 3 - Jamie Schoular (new) • Ward 4 - John McAllister (acclaimed) • Ward 5 - John McCrea (new) • Ward 6 - Lisa Swan (incumbent) • Ward 7 - Larry Barry (new) • Ward 8 - David McDonald (acclaimed) • Ward 9 - John Danaher (new) • Ward 10 - Corina Parisien (new and acclaimed) "Congratulations to the trustees-elect and to everyone who was a candidate for the office of UCDSB trustee. Their interest in public education and supporting local schools is greatly appreciated," said director of education Stephen Sliwa. "I'm looking forward to welcoming and working with this new group of trustees for the next four years. I think the mix of new and returning will encourage a lot of discussion and bring a new perspective. We're always working toward enhancing the learning opportunities of our students, and I think we are well positioned to do that with this board." Ward 1 trustee Donald Cram retained his seat and will again represent Mississippi Mills, Beckwith Township and Carleton Place, for a second term. In Ward 3, Jamie Schoular was elected, defeating long-serving trustee Susan Richards. He will represent the areas of Merrickville-Wol-

NON-VOTERS SNUB DEMOCRACY Congratulations to all the successful candidates in the municipal elections. In fact congratulations to everyone who put their name forward to ensure voters had a choice this year. That certainly wasn't the case in all of Ontario's municipalities. There's a disturbing trend that is seeing more and more acclamations in 120 municipalities, including Beckwith and Drummond-North Elmsley. In all, 26 full councils, including almost 500 councillors, were acclaimed this year up from 18 four years ago. It's not easy being a council member these days what with all the complexities and liabilities imposed on municipal officials from above. Add the modern demands of the job, the need to keep up with continually changing trends and technology, and the insidious pressure coming from social media critics, it's a wonder anyone runs for council. It's certainly not for the pay. As it is a part-time job, often with full-time hours, it requires an ability to juggle municipal duties with one's job unless you happen to be retired. And while many retirees prove to be effective councillors, it's better to have more diversity on council (there are still far too few female candidates) than having all members over 60. In Smiths Falls, voters elected first-time councillors Niki Dwyer and Christopher McGuire, both under 35 years of age. So special compliments to first-time candidates, especially the younger ones who brave getting snubbed by older voters distrustful of the new generation. It's unfortunate that it usually takes turmoil to engage the electorate. For example, in Carleton Place, "out of 7,820 registered electors, 4,302 voted, which is a turnout of 55.01 per cent," deputy clerk/returning officer Stacey Blair noted. In Mississippi Mills, voter turnout was 59.7 per cent and in North Grenville, 47.1 per cent, matching its all-time best 2010 numbers. In Smiths Falls, 49.8 per cent of voters headed to the polls, down from 53 per cent in 2014. With most municipalities into their second or third elections with Internet, telephone and/or mail-in balloting that features an extended voting period, there should be no excuse for people not to vote. Even if you don't think most candidates are worthy of your support, at least vote for one or two, or even cast a blank ballot as a sign of protest. Of course, that would mean making an effort to find out enough to make an informed choice. But not doing so is a slap in the face to those who made the effort to put their names forward for election in an effort to make a difference. And especially an insult to those we're honouring over the next two weeks, good citizens who made the ultimate sacrifice so we could democratically choose our leaders. Your ancestors and ours.

IN WHICH JUNIOR USES UP ANOTHER OF HIS NINE LIVES ROLL CALL NEEDED TO ACCOUNT FOR CATS, DIANA FISHER WRITES DIANA FISHER Column

R0013021901

This time of year, the cats are in and out of the house, up and down the stairs, looking for excitement. They smell cooler weather in the air and they are invigorated by it. As soon as you slide a door open, they zip through it. I commute to work before the sun rises, so I don't see the cats until dinnertime. I can't keep track of where they are until Tuesday, when I work from home, or the weekend. Last Tuesday, Annie and I were in the storage room, sorting little girl clothes to give to a friend who lost her home and all her belongings in a fire. The cats like to go in there, because it holds all kinds of interesting smells. When we leave, we have to make sure they are all out again. I guess we missed one. Today is Sunday, and I went into the storage room to look for a futon

cover. Suddenly, I hear a 'meow' and Junior pops his head up from where he is snoozing in the blankets on the baby cradle. He jumps down and flashes through my legs and out the door. "Junior! What the heck? How long have you been in here?" I hope I left the door open Tuesday and the Farmer decided to close it sometime later in the week. Because I would really hate to think that I locked my poor cat in the basement for five whole days without food, water or toilet. I sniffed the air. Huh. No trace of cat urine. Bizarre. I know they are basically desert animals and don't need a lot of water, but can they also hold their bladders for five days? Poor Junior. I know he was in there for a while, because when he popped out he watched the dog very closely as he ate his kibble. "Your food is up here," I said to the cat, patting the top of the bench. Junior leapt up and started chowing down. He was mighty hungry. I stroked the cat's fur. This is the only time he will allow me to touch him - when he is eating. Normally he arches his back, pushing up in-

thought I could depend on you!" Sammy is the cat who came and woke me when the house was on fire last year. You'd think he would let me know that his brother was locked in the basement. Who knows what he was thinking? Maybe less competition for the cat treats. Survival of the fittest and/or smartest and all that. I left the baby gates up around the pool this winter, so I don't have to worry about any animals accidentally breaking through the ice. This has happened at least once in the past. It may have happened more than once, but the Farmer doesn't like to tell me. I never thought I would lose Junior by locking him up somewhere in the house. I'm horrified to think what would have happened to him if I hadn't gone looking for a futon cover. I guess I'm going to have to do a roll call every night before bed to make sure all fuzzy little felines are present and accounted for.

to the hand that is petting him. This time he just concentrated on his food. We have had squirrels in our attic, so the Farmer has been up there, setting live traps. Mostly he is just feeding the cunning little rodents, who appreciate the snacks he leaves them. But when Junior was missing for a few days, I just assumed he had gone up the ladder and through the open door to the attic. We left it open for a few days; I guess we are lucky we didn't get a squirrel or anything else in the house. Imagine waking up to a raccoon on your bed. I guess that storage room is a lot more soundproof than we originally believed. Junior is a very vocal cat: he often sits in the doorway to my office, vocalizing about anything at all and nothing in particular. He was probably calling to us through the closed door, but we didn't hear anything. Not even when we went downstairs to put Fergus to bed, and every morning when we released him from his crate. "Why didn't you call me?" I asked Junior, who just pushed into the older cat, Sheila, on the couch, and let her wash his ears. "And you, Sammy. I

Paulina Hrebacka/Metroland The North Grenville Concert Choir (NGCC) rehearses on Monday, Oct. 29 at St. John's United Church in Kemptville for their Christmas performances of Handel's Messiah. The concerts will be held at St. James Anglican Church on Dec. 8 at 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m.

PAULINA HREBACKA phrebacka@metroland.com As the North Grenville Concert Choir (NGCC) rehearses for another round of Christmas performances, members are thrilled to revisit the masterpiece of Handel's Messiah. It's estimated that there are roughly a quarter of a million notes in the piece, but it only took George Frideric Handel 24 days to write it. "It's just an incredibly exquisite piece of music," said Elisabeth Rubli, choir member and publicist. "At the end of the manuscript, Handel wrote 'SDG', for 'Soli Deo Gloria' or 'to God alone the glory,' encouraging the belief that he had received divine inspiration." Originally composed in 1741, the oratorio (large musical composition for orchestra) is accompanied

by scriptural text from the Bible. It was first performed in Dublin, Ireland, in April of 1742. The NGCC usually alternates between this piece and classic holiday carols from year to year, but after performing Messiah more than ten times, they still love it. "For many in our community, it's become a bit of a Christmas tradition," said Rubli, "we all simply love performing this wonderful music." There are close to 50 choir members this season, and they've been rehearsing at St. John's United Church in Kemptville on Monday evenings since September. For this special performance, the NGCC will be joined by roughly 12 members of the Divertimento Orchestra of Ottawa, including pianist Erna Poettcker, and others contrib-

Local musician Phillip Konopka has been directing the choir's rehearsals, but will be joining them as a tenor singer for the actual concert as Divertimento conductor Gordon Slater directs both the choir and orchestra in the performance. Konopka said Messiah is exciting and challenging. "The music itself is just so beautiful. There's so much power to the masterful writing," he said. "As opposed to traditional carols, which are a lot simpler, this is a lot more interesting to both sing and listen to." The performance will include 14 songs and feature a number of solos as well.

THE IMPORTANCE OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY FOR CHILDREN REBECCA CRONK Young children and youth often do not Y get the recommended amount of daily exercise. For youngsters, rudimentary activities like climbing monkey bars, playing hopscotch, flying a kite, bouncing on a teeter totter, or playing tag all help to develop flexibility, strength, coordination and endurance. As they get a little older these activities may evolve into such things as running, rock climbing, swimming, dancing, weight lifting or recreational and competitive sports. Each child has a fitness personality that is determined by attitude, personality traits, athletic ability and genetics. These personality types are broken down into three categories: the non-athlete, the casual athlete and the competitive athlete. The challenge is to dial in on which of these three categories a child falls under and suggest activities that you think might spark their interest. There are so many options and so much to be gained ffrom regular exercise, and getting them to participate is paramount. Keep it fun and keep it simple. Exercise has a beneficial impact on many measurable health indicators, including but not limited to: a) Mental health b) Improved balance c) Increased concentration and energy levels d) Improved body composition e) Improved bone mineral density f ) Improved cardiovascular health (can lower blood pressure and cholesterol) g) Can lower blood sugar and help reduce risk of developing Type 2 diabetes h) Improved sleep And ... did you know that exercising releases endorphins and endorphins make you happy? Now, here is a troublesome worldwide statistic. In 2013 there were an estimated 42 million infants and young children either overweight or obese. It is believed

that by 2025 this number will increase to 70 million. In Canada, childhood and adult obesity have reached epidemic proportions. There are a few contributing factors that we absolutely can control. First; the average child and/or teen spends up to ffive to seven hours per day in front of a screen (TV, smartphone, computer, tablet). This screen time needs to be limited because it cuts into play and exercise time; plain and simple. The second factor is a lack of a healthy, balanced diet full of too many sugar-laden, processed foods and not enough whole foods. In conclusion, as adults, we have a responsibility to teach today's youth how to live a healthy, active lifestyle. Lead by ex-

ample. Put down the phones, eat real food and get moving. Remember that a child's physical and emotional well-being is an investment in our future.

OPINION

FILM OFFERS AUDIENCE SOME GOOD, FAMILY FUN BLANCHETT AND BLACK MAKE A GREAT TEAM, COLUMNIST MARK HASKINS WRITES MARK HASKINS Column

MOVIE: The House with a Clock in its Walls

STARRING: Jack Black, Cate Blanchett, Owen Vaccaro, and Kyle MacLachlan

DIRECTOR: Eli Roth

RATING: PG Imagine a story with an eccentric warlock, a mysterious witch, a young orphan, and a creepy and wondrous house. How could The House with a Clock in its Walls not be good? After the deaths of his parents, Lewis (Owen Vaccaro) has to live with his uncle Jonathan (Jack Black). In spite of the

tragic events Jonathan is happy to see his nephew. Lewis is ready to make the best of it, and then he sees his uncle's home. It's a dark and creepy house filled with a disturbing number of clocks. Lewis is amazed and a little scared of the house, but he's delighted to meet his uncle's best friend Florence Zimmerman (Cate Blanchett). They get Lewis settled, and make him feel welcome. However, Lewis can't shake the feeling there's more going on in this odd house. Regardless of what Lewis might have imagined he still isn't prepared to learn that Jonathon is a warlock and Florence is a witch. Shocked and thrilled, Lewis begs his uncle to teach him. The lessons begin at once, and it opens a world of wonder for Lewis. It also opens a world of darkness. A secret hides in the house. The former owner, an evil warlock named Isaac Izard (Kyle MacLachlan), left a clock hidden somewhere in the house. Jonathan isn't sure what it will do, but he knows when it counts down it's going to be bad. It will take all the magic Jonathan, Florence and Lewis can muster to stop the clock. There are movies that you like instantly. The House with a Clock in its Walls is like that for me. I like everything that was happening. I like the 1950s setting. I like these odd misfit characters. I like the dark undertones that pervade the film. Mostly

I love the house. It is creepy and mysterious and wonderful all at the same time. The film had me from the beginning, and captivated me right to the end. Jack Black is one of my favourite actors. If you asked me to cast someone as a slightly weird but ultimately good warlock he'd be my first choice. He does funny and zany with the best of them, but he also does charming and sensitive really well. If you asked me to team someone up with Jack Black it would not be Cate Blanchett. Blanchett is great as Florence, but

what surprises me is how good a team Black and Blanchett are. Their constant banter and unique chemistry creates a real sense of friendship between them. Owen Vaccaro has no trouble stealing scenes. As Lewis he shows some serious depth as he struggles with the loss of his parents, soars with the discovery of magic, and becomes a hero in the face of evil. It's a great performance. The House with a Clock in its Walls is funny, exciting, occasionally scary, and good family fun. Mark Haskins has been reviewing movies for well over a decade. His column is a regular feature.

November is

DIABETES AWARENESS MONTH Every November, Diabetes Canada (formerly known as the Canadian Diabetes Association) launches a month-long awareness campaign to shed light on the growing diabetes epidemic affecting the country. Diabetes Awareness Month is an opportunity to educate those at risk and help existing diabetics live the healthiest life possible. Diabetes or prediabetes affects an estimated 11 million Canadians, many of whom are unaware of their condition. However, it’s important to know the warning signs to stop diabetes in its tracks and prevent related health complications like heart disease and eye damage. WHAT IS PREDIABETES? Prediabetes refers to a condition in which blood glucose levels are higher than normal, but not high enough to receive a positive diabetes diagnosis. According to Diabetes Canada, nearly 50 per cent of Canadians with prediabetes go on to develop Type 2 diabetes.

WARNING SIGNS Increased thirst, frequent urination, unexplained weight change, extreme fatigue or sluggishness, blurred vision — if you experience any of these symptoms, you may be at risk of developing diabetes. However, it’s important to note that you can alter your future for the better if you pay attention to warning signs and seek appropriate medical help. PREVENTION Research shows that if you take the necessary steps to manage your blood glucose levels, you can successfully delay or prevent the development of Type 2 diabetes. Simple lifestyle changes like increasing your physical activity, eating wholesome foods and losing weight can make a world of difference. This November, join the movement to end the epidemic. Visit www.diabetes.ca to find out how you can influence positive change for the future of diabetes in Canada.

really want to keep your ride looking and running like it was new, there are a few things to take care of before the snow and deepfreeze hit. Let it shine. Painted body panels can easily suffer from exposure to the elements with fading, scratches, and chips being the most common symptoms. A good coat of wax will go a long way to fending off environmental risks. Don't count on factory finishes or 'permanent' treatments to keep the lustre of your auto's paint intact. Stick with a brand

BRIAN TURNER Column

With little doubt, Canadian winters are extremely hard on our vehicles. From road salt and grit to temperature extremes, to slips and slides and impacts, our rides take a beating. If you

name liquid or paste wax (think Turtle or Meguiars) and avoid coloured/tinted waxes or anything with the word 'polish' on the label. A good wax job won't last throughout the winter, so getting one done in late fall and then again in February or March can help keep things shining. Snow tires. We really shouldn't have to say much about this by now. If you haven't got four snow tires with the mountain snowflake symbol on the side wall on your vehicle by mid-November, well, head to the Deep South or park it

for the winter. And as much as auto body paint suffers from winter, alloy rims are also prone. So if you want your wheels to stay as good looking as the rest of the ride, get a set of winter rims. Time for a battery test. While many things that can go wrong with our autos, do so without much warning, batteries will let you know when they're on the way out. Having a simple test done by your favourite service shop is all it takes to know if you'll need a new one before long. Most shops will do this test at no

They most often represent good value and are critical to know if your vehicle needs any attention to successfully survive our winter roads.

charge when completing routine repairs or maintenance. Wiper blades. This is an easy DIY task and a must if you want a clear view ahead. When shopping for blades, take a moment to measure their length as they are specified in inches on retailers' shelves. If yours doesn't measure up to a full inch, you can round up to the next size (e.g. if it's 19.5inches, get a 20-inch blade). General check-overs are a must. Repair shops, from dealership service departments to national chains to independent facilities offer seasonal inspections with oil changes and tire rotations this time of year.

MUNICH GLOCKENSPIEL A MAJOR TOURIST ATTRACTION JOYOUS SPECTACLE ENTERTAINS GROUPS DAILY, JEFF MAGUIRE WRITES JEFF MAGUIRE Column

Sometimes it's the little things that make a holiday memorable. Such was the case during our recent visit to Germany and one of those "little things" stands out today as I run the many good experiences from our trip through my mind. On day 2 of our two-week excursion we were in "Munchen" (German for "Munich") which is the third largest city in the country.

It is a major centre of business, transportation, technology, arts and education. Munich has an incredibly captivating history and as a result tourism is also a major economic driver in the Bavarian capital. This was our first visit and Kathleen and I were impressed with the cleanliness of Munich, the pleasant mix of old and new structures. The city was heavily bombed during the Second World War and meticulously rebuilt. Marienplatz, Munich's best known public square, is the perfect place to begin any sightseeing visit to the old town section. Dominating Marienplatz is the "Rathaus" (city hall) featuring a clock tower that rises impressively over the sprawling, busy public

gathering place. Wendy LeBlanc, who along with husband Frank are our good friends and regular travelling companions, was already familiar with Marienplatz and the Rathaus. The previous night Wendy had pointed to the clock tower and said, "We need to come back here tomorrow to see the Glockenspiel. It is excellent!" Normally I might have had to ask for an explanation. But as it happens I was already familiar with the word "Glockenspiel." By way of definition it's basically a musical instrument similar to a xylophone. Translated to English the word means, literally, "bells play." In German usage the word may be applied to any carillon-sized or chime-sized tower bell

instrument which plays music. Some places in Germany (where the idea is believed to have originated) and in other parts of the world feature a musical carillon which accompanies sculpted figures who emerge from clock towers and tell a story to appreciative audiences. That is a Glockenspiel! My first experience was in Frankenmuth, a town in central Michigan near Saginaw, which bills itself as "Little Bavaria." Frankenmuth and district was heavily settled by conservative Lutheran immigrants from the Franconia region of Germany in the mid-19th century. We've visited several times over the years. The town's Glockenspiel Tower, which is located at the Bavarian Inn an excel-

lent hotel in Frankenmuth where my family and I stay, features a 35-bell carillon, a sculpted figurine movement and an illuminated clock. All were imported from Germany. The Rathaus Glockenspiel in Munich is also a major tourist attraction as we found out when we visited Marienplatz in time for the 11 a.m. "performance" the following morning. In terms of size and scale the Munich Glockenspiel dwarfs its much newer counterpart in Frankenmuth. Perched high in the clock tower, on two levels, it features 43 bells and 32 lifesize figures. Daily at 11 a.m. and 5 p.m. (also at 12 noon during the summer) the Glockenspiel chimes and the brightly painted and appropriately

costumed figurines emerge from the tower where they re-enact two stories from the 16th century. I'm sure the majority of those who watch the Rathaus Glockenspiel know little about the stories which are depicted. They are there to be entertained and in large numbers too. It's a joyous spectacle and it has become one of the city's biggest tourist attractions. If you're ever in Munich don't miss the Rathaus Glockenspiel.

Before that, Levitt roasted coffee. As a child, he lived in the UK and moved to Canada with his family at the age of six. Some of his favourite English desserts offered at the bakery include Eccles cakes and Ecclefechan tarts. "Baking is something I've always enjoyed," he said. "It was in my family; my mum was a very good baker." There's a lot of patience required for the task of making Crusty Baker breads. "It's care," said Levitt. "It's thinking about what you're doing, and the finished product at the end of the day." The dough is started the day before it's ready for sale, and ferments for at least 18 hours before it is shaped. Then, the bread waits a few more hours before it's rolled into the oven. "It's a long process, but it allows for the flavours to really develop." The labour of love calls for Levitt to be in the bakery by 4 a.m. during the week to spend six hours baking and preparing for

Paulina Hrebacka/Metroland A typical soup and sandwich lunch special at the Crusty Baker in Kemptville. Pictured: "The Sky is Falling" sandwich with brown butter, roasted chicken, tomato, red onion, sage, and garlic mayo on fresh, crusty bread and a scratch-made, hearty mushroom soup. The bakery usually offers four or five different sandwiches to choose from and two soups. lunch before opening the doors at 10 a.m. On the weekends, Levitt starts at 2 a.m. But all of this is worth it to give back to the loyal "crustomers," who return for the bread's signature rustic texture that is

both crusty and fluffy. Staple bread varieties are sourdough, whole wheat, and rye. "We will always have a variety of breads; something for everyone," said Levitt. Some of the most popular

products at the bakery are fresh sea salt and rosemary baguettes, olive bread, garlic and Parmesan focaccia, and the famous bacon butter tarts. The unique dessert was one of many bacon-inspired creations during Bacon Week in January of 2012. "We tried to phase them out, but we couldn't - people just love them," Levitt said. The Crusty Baker is also usually well-stocked with a variety of sweet and savoury pies, cookies, pastries, and even cheeses. As the holiday season approaches, Levitt is getting ready to roll out tasty treats like Christmas cake, gingerbread, mincemeat pies, and pfeffernussen; a traditional German spice cookie. Savoury specialties like tourtière and duck confit/white bean pies are also customary offerings from The Crusty Baker at Christmastime. The Crusty Baker is open Tuesday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and on Saturdays and Sundays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. For more information or to place an order, call 613-215-0347.

A lifetime resident of the area, Keith Hamilton passed away suddenly at home on Wednesday, October 24, 2018. He was 77. Keith David Hamilton was born in Winchester on January 28, 1941 to his parents Stanley and Iva Hamilton (nee Bell). He married the first love of his life Mildred Fawcett on August 26, 1963. He married the second love of his life Marjorie Beaupre on September 21, 1996. Keith was dad to Diane, Tom, Brian and Gerry. He was grandpa to Laura, Adam, Dayna, Scott, Jess, Lexie, Kristen, Brittany, Josh, Christine, Rebecca, and Rachelle. He was great-grandpa to Peyton, Aspen Emma and Jaxon. Keith’s pride and joy were his kids, his grandchildren, and his wonderful grandbabies. If you wanted to see Keith smile, plunk a child on his lap. Grandpa had some shy grandchildren and he paid no attention to that because he would find them and lift them into his arms. After his first wife Mildred he found love with Marjorie; he even quit smoking for her to marry him. Keith then became dad to Sherry, Rick and Daniel and grandpa to Denis, Jeffrey, Sarah and Alexandra and great-grandpa to Darrick, Mary Kate, and Elias. Keith was a hard worker all his life right up to the last day and he expected the same of his family. Keith was always proud of working for Cruickshank Construction and The Township of Williamsburg. He loved working for Cruickshank’s except for the fact that he had to work away from home, so he left there and went to the Township of Williamsburg to be their grader operator. No one could grade a road like Keith Hamilton. Keith loved his black lab Benjie and he enjoyed travelling. He was a “worry wart” and he would worry about his family all the time. Keith entered the computer age in 2017. He discovered Facebook, YouTube and he started using a cell phone and texting. He had a few issues with getting the hang of it, but he never shied away from asking for help. Keith liked to get calls especially on Father’s Day, Christmas Day, and his birthday. Keith was very particular about the look of his property and he loved working in the garden. Punctuality was very important to Keith and he was never late. He enjoyed playing a good game of checkers and that meant no cheating! He always liked to joke and tease his grandchildren, but they never got to enter the house or leave the house without a hug. Keith is survived by his children Diane Bennett (David) of Smiths Falls, Tom (Kathleen) of South Mountain and Brian (Heather) of St. John’s, New Brunswick. Keith will be fondly remembered by his grandchildren Laura (Billy), Adam, Dayna, Scott (Stefanie), Jessica (Keith), Lexie, Kristen, Brittany, Joshua, Christine (Adam), Rebecca (Ryan), Rachelle and greatgrandchildren Peyton, Aspen and Emma. He was predeceased by his wives Mildred Fawcett and Marjorie Beaupre, his son Gerry, his great-grandson Jaxon, his sister Joyce Leach and his brothers Raymond and Ralph Hamilton. He is also survived by nieces and nephews. Friends called at the Marsden and McLaughlin Funeral Home, Williamsburg, on Friday from 2-4 and 7-9 p.m. Funeral service was held at the funeral home on Saturday, October 27th at 11 a.m., with Pastor Bruce North officiating. Interment followed at Maple Ridge Cemetery in Chesterville. Pallbearers were Adam Bennett, Scott Hamilton, Keith Fowler, Billy Carley, Joshua Hamilton and John Brugma. Donations to the Heart and Stroke Foundation would be gratefully acknowledged by the family. Online condolences may be made at marsdenmclaughlin.com

Donald John Messenger

September 6, 1946 (Collingwood) October 27, 2018 Donald’s courageous battle with cancer ended on Saturday, October 27, 2018, when he passed away peacefully at his Kemptville home. Throughout his illness, his family, friends and neighbours, along with the professional care of nurses and doctors, provided constant comfort and support. Donald was a dedicated physics, science and math teacher and teacher-librarian at North Grenville District High School for 36 years. The Ferguson Nursery Forest provided him the opportunity for many hours of walking, cycling, crosscountry skiing and nature appreciation. A longtime member and elder (45 years) of St. Paul’s Presbyterian Church, Kemptville, Donald was very supportive of the ministry and served on committees, taught Sunday School and served as Church Historian. In the community, he did volunteer teaching at the T.R. Leger School, helped with the “Fun with Books” program, and attended “Youngsters of Yore” and Historical Society meetings. He will be dearly missed, but will live on in the hearts of his wife Judy, his daughters Nancy (Steve), Catherine (Darren), Karen (Erik), his brother George, sisters-in-law Marie, Brenda (Ernie), Janice (John), nieces and nephews Moria, Sheila, Carrie, Regan, Dallas and T.J., several cousins, and many close friends. Visitation: Thursday, Nov. 1, 2-4pm and 6-8pm. A Celebration of Donald’s Life: Friday, Nov.2, 2:00pm. Both visitation and service at St. Paul’s Presbyterian Church, Prescott St., Kemptville.

KUNDE, Gunter Erwin Heinz

On Monday, October 1st, 2018, Gunter Erwin Heinz Kunde took his last flight, peacefully at home in the arms of a very dear friend, after a short battle with pancreatic cancer. Gunter was, to the best of his knowledge, predeceased by all relatives. He was born in Prussia, Germany on November 4, 1931 and came to Canada on May 4th, 1957, landing in Bremerhaven, Quebec. In 1965 Gunter received his Canadian Citizenship. In 1968 after achieving his diesel hydraulic license and his car mechanic’s license, he opened a business called All Hydraulics, and in 1978 opened Triple K Hydraulics. Gunter loved to dance, be it square dance, jive, waltz, polka, you name it. He also very much loved flying. On July 29, 1967 he received his student pilot permit and continued flying and achieved his full pilots license. In 1984 Gunter purchased a Globe Swift which he flew until a short time ago. He flew often out of the Smiths FallsMontaque Airport where he kept his plane. When sickness stopped him from flying he would drive to the airport almost every day just to watch the planes or give someone a hand with a repair. When Gunter wasn’t flying, he was out riding his motorbike or in the later years, his scooter, out for a pleasure drive in the car, or just basking in the sun. For the past six years, Gunter drove to Ottawa on a weekly basis for accordion lessons, and on occasion played in a concert with his fellow students. He loved and appreciated nature and a “hot” black coffee. Gunter will be greatly missed by Lois and all the Strickland family, by his neighbours and friends in his neighbourhood, by fellow pilots and friends at the airport, the many square dance clubs, the Sunday dance group, the German Club, and I’m sure many more. In memory of Gunter, donations to the Smiths Falls-Montague Airport would be appreciated. A potluck dinner to celebrate Gunter’s Life will be held at the Airport Clubhouse, 102 Van Exan Drive, Smiths Falls, on Sunday, November 4, 2018 at 1 PM (doors open at 12 Noon). Cremation has been entrusted to the Lannin Funeral Home, Smiths Falls. Online condolences can be made at www.lannin.ca

STANTON, Mark

Mark Beverley Stanton passed from this world on the afternoon of October 22, 2018 in the company of his children Joanne and Jonathon following a long struggle with leukaemia. His laughter, quick wit and perpetual music soundtrack will be missed throughout the valley. A connoisseur of music and analogue stereo systems, smoking, coffee, fast cars, fishing tackle, bicycles, euchre, cross-country skiing, a caesar, beer or rye; he was never one to shy from a party. His first love was a bicycle, touring the Quebec countryside with his banty rooster on the handlebars. From two wheels to four, Mark began building customized cars for the drag racing circuit as one of the Valley Racers. This love for speed ultimately led to meeting his wife Valerie, after needing a tow from a swamp. Born July 8, 1944, Mark is predeceased by his mother Loretta Ballard (née Rougier) and father Beverley Stanton both of Pontiac, Quebec. He will be missed by his son-in-law Andrew Green, grandchildren Neltje, Robin and Faye as well as sister Heather (Richard) Briggs. Our sincere thanks to the Hospice Renfrew community for making Mark’s end of life care so full and dignified. In the professional care of the Pilon Family Funeral Home and Chapel Ltd., 50 John Street North, Arnprior.

Pets of the Week Hi there, I am Cam and I am a true gem. I was saved by LAWS a little while ago and they tell me I am ready to be offered for adoption. I am sure when you see my friendly face you'll come running for me to

take me home. Can't wait to meet you. I am available in Carleton Place at Pet Valu. Look at me, I am Catrina and I love to goof around. They recently spayed me and you'll see evidence of it. I love to roll over to show you my naked belly and if you can, give me a rub please. I love playtime with toys too. I am really sociable and ready for my forever home. Hello from Felix. I am finally ready to be adopted. I got a nasty cold and took some time to get over that. Now that I am feeling great again I'd love to be next one adopted. I am very friendly, handsome, playful and young. Please meet Raven, a long hair calico with lovely markings. She's a pretty little girl who was wandering the streets in Balderson. Sadly no one claimed her. She's about 10 years old and could use some help to add some meat to her skinny body. Raven is very friendly, curious and would love to find her true forever home. Because of her age the adoption fee has been reduced to $100. Thank you for your continued support. Follow LAWS at www.facebook.com/lanarkanimals and/or check out our website at lanarkanimals.ca. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the shelter at shelter@lanarkanimals.ca or by calling 613-283-9308. LAWS is located at 253 Glenview Rd., Smiths Falls.

OPINION

BUILDINGS OF THE FUTURE EARNED HER BROTHER TOP CONTEST PRIZE, MARY COOK RECALLS MARY COOK Column

Then the day came when all our drawings were handed in, and off they went to someone far away from the Northcote School who would decide who, if any of us, would be a dollar richer. Finally, one day, just after our morning prayers and bible reading, someone from the school board walked into the Northcote School, went right up to Miss Crosby's desk, and handed her an envelope. Of course, as we always did when a visitor came to the school, we were all standing at attention. Then the man in the dress suit said the winner was none other than Emerson Haneman, who showed great imagination and drawing skill, and who was convinced one day he would be known for his talents at designing

Spelling bees often went beyond the Northcote School, when Admaston and at least one other school would be included, and a whole day would be spent with all the schools getting together for one glorious day of spelling, lunch brought in by the ladies of the community, and lots of frivolity. Then one year, it was decided there would be a 'drawing bee'. There would be no getting together of the area schools, but pupils would be graded by someone from the School Board, and a whole dollar given to the winner. There were plenty of rules ... enough to discourage anyone from even putting a pencil to paper. Grading would be done by class, which was a great relief to me, since I was only in Primer Book, I wouldn't be competing with someone in Senior Fourth! Miss Crosby read out the rules, and the main idea was to draw something using our own imagination. I decided to draw a picture of my cat dressed in my doll's clothes, but it was my brother Emerson who was the most excited about the whole Drawing Bee. He drew constantly, convincing Mother that one day his artwork would be hanging all over Canada. Emerson drew buildings ... and I thought they were the craziest looking buildings I ever saw. My sister Audrey said he got the idea from our Uncle Lou who lived in New York and worked on the Empire State Building and the Waldorf Astoria. Emerson was fascinated when Uncle Lou talked about them, and he said when he grew up, he was going to design buildings that would be even more grand than they were! Mother encouraged Emerson in his dream, and when the One Cent Sale came around at Ritza's Drug Store, she bought drawing pads and thick leaded pencils. While the rest of us sat around the old pine table at night looking through Eaton's catalogue, or playing cards, Emerson sat at one end of the table with his pad and pencils drawing outlandish buildings which the rest of us kids thought would never see the light of day. Well, at any rate, when Miss Crosby announced that there was to be a drawing contest among the schools in the area and a whole dollar would be awarded, Emerson, convinced he would be the winner, already planned on buying more drawing pads with his money. And of course, he would be drawing his outlandish buildings! We were allowed to work on our drawings at home, that way the contest wouldn't interfere with our daily school work. So at night, by the light from the coal oil lamp, we worked on creating our own artistic masterpieces.

There sat poor Emerson, pencil and eraser in hand, creating these buildings that we children thought were just about the most outlandish creations we had ever seen. He drew buildings made entirely of glass! We couldn't imagine anything more crazy. Imagine, glass walled buildings, instead of bricks and cement! Who heard of anything so ridiculous? Then, to make these buildings even more crazy, he had some of them with their elevators going up on the outside! Imagine!! He drew and erased, and drew and erased, and the day was getting closer when we would be handing in our drawings. Audrey and I snickered behind our hands, and Mother beamed with pride.

EMERSON PROVED EVERYONE WRONG WITH HIS DRAWINGS

building of the future! Well, was Mother proud! Of course, Emerson couldn't wait to get into Ritza's Drug Store with his dollar to buy more drawing pads so that he could create more outlandish buildings made of glass and with elevators going up the outside walls! Poor Emerson, I thought ... he'll never amount to a hill of beans with his harebrained ideas. Glass buildings indeed! Interested in an electronic version of Mary's books?
