James Oliver Curwood
James Oliver Curwood was born in Owosso, Michigan on June 12, 1878. He was an American novelist and conservationist. The youngest of four children, he left high school before graduation but did pass the entrance exam to the University of Michigan. In 1898, he enrolled in the English department and studied journalism. He worked for the Detroit News-Tribune and started at $8/week as a reporter covering funerals. He was fired 6 months later and joined a pharmaceutical manufacturer. In 1902 he was re-hired by the Detroit News-Tribune at $18/week. He left his job in 1907. At this time, he devoted more time to his writing. By 1909, he had saved enough money to travel to the Canadian northwest. This trip provided the inspiration for Curwood’s wilderness adventure stories. He would continue making these trips for the next 18 years, spending time in the wilderness, exploring, writing and building log cabins. By 1922, his writings had made him successful enough to build the Curwood Castle in Owosso. Overlooking the Shiawassee River, he set up his writing studio in one of the large turrets. He lived at his nearby home on Williams Street. He also owned a camp in a remote area in Baraga County, Michigan near the Huron Mountains as well as a cabin in Roscommon, Michigan. He was an avid hunter in his youth but, as he grew older, he became an advocate of environmentalism. The story goes that while on a hunting trip in the Rockies, he saw a large bear he called Thor. He tried to shoot him three times in three weeks. One day as Thor approached him, Curwood slipped and fell, breaking his gun. The bear reared up - before walking away. Curwood turned from hunting for trophies to championing the cause of wild things. Curwood led active campaigning for the preservation of Michigan’s natural resources. He was appointed to the Michigan Conservation Commission in 1926. At the time of his death at the age of 49, he was the highest paid author in the world. During the first full weekend in June of each year, the city of Owosso holds the Curwood Festival. The Curwood Castle shown on this page is now a museum. The castle contains many of his original furnishings, copies of all his adventure novels and several oil paintings which served as illustrations for his stories. Many of his novels were later made into movies. One recent film that was produced from one of his novels was "The Bear", which had its United States premier in Owosso.

Michigan’s Maple Syrup Michigan’s history of maple syrup is a time honored tradition. Real maple syrup is a pure, natural product, with a unique flavor. It is simply the concentrated sap of the maple tree. It is also only produced in North America. Native Americans are credited as the first to discover the sweet sap from a maple tree could be processed into maple syrup. One of the most popular legends about the history of maple syrup is about a Native American chief who discovered the clear liquid sap seeping from a tree he had stuck his tomahawk in. As the day got warmer, the sap seeped into a cooking pot on the ground. The chief’s wife, after tasting it, discovered that it tasted quite good and cooked his meat in it. The chief was so impressed with the sweet taste of the maple meat, he named it Sinzibudkwud which means “drawn from trees.� It was soon discovered that cutting a maple tree in early spring caused it to ooze a sweet clear liquid that could be processed into a sweet product. Over the years, it was learned that the sap could be gradually reduced to syrup by repeatedly freezing it, discarding the ice and starting over again. Eventually some of the Native American tribes began to process the maple sap over fire. The women of the tribe would go to the “sugar bushes� during early spring to process the maple syrup. Troughs were made to collect the sap and bring it to the fire. The sap was heated by adding heated stones. Early settlers imitated the Native American methods in making their maple syrup. They would boil the sap over an open fire until it reduced down to syrup. It takes about 40 gallons of sap to make 1 gallon of syrup. Maple syrup production can be classified as one of nature’s wonders. Maple sap cannot be collected just any time of the year. Alternating episodes of freezing and thawing cause the sap to flow within the sugar maple tree, and this only happens for a few weeks in the spring and fall. Spring is when most of the maple syrup is produced, because weather conditions are generally more favorable for sap flow. When the weather warms up to above freezing, maple sap will begin to flow. It will continue to flow at a steadily declining rate for approximately 8 to 15 hours, provided the temperature remains
above freezing. Most of the original syrup makers were dairy farmers who made maple syrup and sugar for their own use or to make a little extra income. In the 1960’s it was so labor intensive and time consuming that small farmers had a hard time sustaining themselves. A surge of technological breakthroughs occurred. Tubing systems were developed and vacuum pumps added to draw the sap directly from the trees to the evaporator house. Pre-heaters that “recycleâ€? heat which previously was lost were developed, and reverse-osmosis filters that remove a portion of the water out of the sap before it is boiled were introduced into the process. Technological developments continue today with new filtering techniques, better tubing, “superchargedâ€? pre-heaters, and improved storage containers. Did You Know? • Michigan ranks 5th in maple syrup production in the United States. • Average maple syrup production in Michigan is about 90,000 gallons per year. • There are an estimated 500 commercial maple syrup producers in Michigan with about 2,000 additional hobby or home use producers. • Maple syrup is one agricultural crop in which there is no surplus. • The production of pure maple syrup is the oldest agricultural enterprise in the United States. • The maple syrup season in Michigan starts in February in the southern counties and runs well into April in the Upper Peninsula. • Maple syrup tastes great on waffles, pancakes and french toast! It also can be made into cream, sugar, candy and many other uses!

Coloring Corner Butterfly Wishes Yesterday a butterfly Came floating gently through the sky. He soared up through the atmosphere Then drifted close enough to hear. I said, "I'd love to fly with you And sail around the way you do. It looks like it would be such fun To fly up toward the summer sun. But I have not your graceful charm. I haven't wings, just these two arms. I've been designed to walk around. My human feet must touch the ground. Then magically he spoke to me and told me what his wish would be. He said, "What I'd love most to do Is walk upon God's Earth with you, To squish it's mud between my toes Or touch my finger to my nose. I'd love just once to walk around With human feet to touch the ground, But I have not two legs that swing, I haven't arms, just these two wings." And so we went our separate ways In wonder and surprise. For we'd both seen God's precious gifts Through someone else's eyes. Author Unknown

Stars and Stripes Forever! In the United States, we celebrate Presidents' Day in February to honor two of our greatest presidents, George Washington and Abraham Lincoln. George Washington was our first president. He was born on February 22, 1732. America was not a nation when he was born. At that time our land belonged to England, a country across the ocean. People in America wanted to become a separate country so they fought a war called the Revolutionary War. George Washington was an American general in that war. America won the war and picked a new name for itself: The United States of America. George Washington was then elected to be our first President. Abraham Lincoln was our 16th president. He was born on February 12, 1809. Things were different then when Abe was a boy. He lived in a log cabin; which is made out of logs cut from trees. Abe's family was poor. Often he went barefoot because he didn't have any shoes. When Abraham Lincoln grew up, he studied to become a lawyer. Later, he was elected to be a law-maker and in 1861, Abraham Lincoln was elected to be the 16th President of the United States. Abe Lincoln is a well loved president because he held our country together with courage and wisdom during the Civil War. George Washington and Abraham Lincoln lived a long time ago, but we still honor their contributions in helping to build and/or preserve our great country. As Americans, we see both presidents as “Patriotic”. A person who is patriotic proudly supports and defends his country. Let’s celebrate these two great presidents by making a patriotic symbol of America, a star! Contributed by Rebecca Nechuta, KidzArt Follow these simple instructions. Have fun!
Let’s Make A 3-D Patriotic Star This cool patriotic star is made from 2 identical paper stars that are interlaced. Materials Need · Card stock, thin cardboard or Styrofoam · Scissors · Decoration ideas: markers, crayons, paper cutouts of Washington or Lincoln, buttons, glitter. · Glue Directions: 1. On cardstock or thin cardboard, trace two identical (exactly the same) stars. Or you could print stars on cardstock from your computer. 2. Cut out your stars and decorate each star on both sides with your choice of markers, crayons, paper cut outs, glitter. 3. Mark the center of each star. You will need to cut one slit in each star; here is how: On the first star, cut from an inner corner to the center point of the star. On the second star, cut from an outer point to the center point of the star. See picture. 4. Slip the two stars together through the slits you have just cut. For stability, you may have to tape or glue the stars where they meet at the slits. This patriotic three-dimensional star can stand on a table or can be hung from the ceiling with a string!

What Is A Heart Murmur? A heart murmur is a whooshing sound between heart beats. The doctor hears it through a stethoscope. It’s easier to hear heart murmurs in kids because they have less fat, muscle and bone between the murmur and the doctor’s stethoscope! This whoosh is just an extra sound that the blood makes as it flows through the heart. Doctors can discover murmurs during regular checkups or an illness checkup. Murmurs have grades too! Grade 1 is the softest sounding and Grade 6 is the loudest! More than half of all kids have a heart murmur at some time in their lives and most heart murmurs don’t mean anything is wrong. Some doctors call these “normal� murmurs. These are nothing to worry about as they are caused by blood rushing through the heart valves in a normal heart. One common type of this normal murmur is called Still’s murmur. This murmur is most often heard in healthy children age 3 to 7. A normal murmur can get louder when the blood flows faster through the heart. An example of this is when kids have a fever or are running around. That is because an increase in body tempera-
ture or activity makes the heart pump more blood. When the body temperature goes down, the murmur may get quieter or even disappear. Even though most murmurs do not mean anything is wrong, sometimes a heart problem can cause a murmur. The heart may have a leaky valve, a hole in it or a valve that may not open all the way. If your doctor thinks a murmur may be due to a problem, the doctor will send a child to the pediatric cardiologist who specializes in children’s hearts. This pediatric cardiologist will ask a lot of questions. The doctor will also listen to your heart, check your pulse and listen to your lungs. Sometimes they will order a chest X-ray and electrocardiogram (EKG) which measures electrical activity of the heart. Another test may be an echocardiogram of the heart. This test uses sound waves to make a picture of the heart as the blood is pumped through its chambers and valves. These tests don’t hurt. The pediatric cardiologist will take all the information from the tests and determine if your murmur is causing a problem for you! The doctor may prescribe medicines to help prevent infection, to help the heart squeeze harder, prevent blood clots, remove extra fluid from the body or lower blood pressure. In some cases, surgery is needed to fix the problem. Doctors can patch a hole in the heart, fix a valve, rebuild blood vessels or stretch one open that’s too narrow! Most of the time though, a heart murmur isn’t a big problem. A kid with a murmur can run, jump and play like everyone else.
