We’re going to miss you guys too. It’s not just you guys that are sorry to be leaving, but we’re sorry to see you leave,” said Schermerhorn.

to be focused on a new goal. This week, the L&A County General Hospital, along with the L&A County General Hospital Foundation, announced that it would be throwing its support behind a push to bring a new magnetic resonance imaging unit to the region. The new unit will be situated at Kingston General Hospital. While that new MRI unit won’t be installed at the Napanee hospital, there’s no doubt that patients in L&A will benefit from it. “Well over 25 per cent of the total number of MRIs that will be done at Kingston come from L&A County,” said LACGH Chief Executive Officer Wayne Coveyduck. “It’s a significant number. We felt that the project is regional in scope… we felt that we had not an obligation but an opportunity to support them in this initiative.” “We’re looking at the whole region,” said Foundation chair Robert Paul. “I think we’re being progressive, and I think we’re being innovative on this, because nobody else has been doing this.

Police Beat

OPP investigate credit card fraud case Beaver Staff

The Napanee OPP are investigating a suspected case of credit card fraud. The Napanee detachment received a complaint from an area motel owner of a man attempting to rent several rooms for a 10-night period. The owner of the motel contacted police after receiving several emails from the man, who claimed to reside in the United States. The suspect provided four different credit card numbers all with the same expiry date and directed the motel owner to utilize

ing is a big service that we send our patients into Kingston for — that includes (computed tomography) CT scans and MRIs,” he added. With this new goal in mind, the hospital foundation — along with the hospital board and L&A County General Hospital Volunteer Services — will be hosting a gala at the hospital’s new space in the former Westdale Park Public School. The gala’s presenting sponsors are the L&A County General Hospital physicians. The event, which will feature dinner and entertainment, will happen on Feb. 12. The gala will take place in the former school’s gymnasium, which has been converted into an auditorium. “We’ve been very fortunate here, with our leadership, to be able to be in the position we’re in, both financially and in the services we provide,” said Paul. “We’re certainly looking forward to having the opportunities in this changing environment, and I think we will.”

the “one that worked”. The suspect then asked if the motel rooms had computers in them, and when advised that they didn’t, he requested that the owner purchase one using the supplied credit card number. The business owner asked for identification to be sent by email and determined the credit card numbers did not belong to suspect. The OPP say they would like to remind business owners to verify credit card holder’s identities, especially for large or unusual purchase requests, including gift card purchases.

Salvation Army Kettle Campaign gets underway

BY ADAM PRUDHOMME Staff Reporter

A little snow is usually good for stirring up shoppers’ holiday spirit — and might inspire them to drop a few coins into the Salvation Army’s Christmas Kettle. Too much snow on the other hand, such as what fell last year, might force a lot of shoppers to stay home, resulting in fewer dollars raised for the Salva-

tion Army. After last year’s down year, organizers for this year’s campaign, — which officially began Friday and runs through Dec. 24 — are hoping for just the right amount of winter weather. “Last year’s campaign was down because of the weather and I think we only took in around $28,000,” said Major Craig Rowe, pastor for the Napanee Salvation Army. “Our goal (for 2014) is probably between $30,000-35,000.”

Volunteers can now be spotted around Napanee standing beside those famous red kettles at the Giant Tiger, LCBO, No Frills, Metro, Country Traditions and Wal-Mart. Counter donation boxes can also be found at 20 local businesses, mostly in the downtown core. “The money that we collect at Christmas time is our budget for the year for Family Services,” said Rowe. “That’s why we’re hoping there will be lots

that come in to get us through to next year.” All money donated in Napanee stays in Napanee, going towards the Salvation Army’s many community programs such as the food bank or after-school programs for kids. Though the campaign is now officially underway there is always a need for volunteers willing to give a few hours and stand next to a kettle. “We need as many as

Here in Canada, the first kettle was set up in St. John’s, NFLD back in 1906.

Examining the ‘bad reading experience’

Library fine? Pay with food donation: county ‘Food 4 Fines’ designed to assist food bank

BY ASHLEY ESPINOZA Staff Reporter

Those carrying an overdue charge at the library can pay with canned goods rather than cash next month. The Lennox and Addington Libraries are participating in Food 4 Fines again this year, which means overdue library fines will be forgiven in exchange for a nonperishable food item. All eight of the L&A libraries are participating in the program and all food collected will be sent to local food banks. “We just started it last year. We had about 16 boxes of food last year that went to the Napanee Salvation Army,” Catherine Coles, L&A library services manager. More food was provided to other local food banks closer to each of those branches. “There have been a lot

of people that have been deterred by their fines, they don’t want to go in and pay them for whatever reason. So this gives them an opportunity to come back and reclaim their membership,” explained Coles. Last year was the first year the L&A Libraries participated in the program. Coles said since it was so successful last year, the libraries are running the program again this year in order to increase local library use as well as provide food for local families. “To keep it simple, it’s an item of food for an item overdue. So if you have three books overdue, regardless of how long those books have been overdue, it would be three items,” said Coles. Food 4 Fines will be running throughout the entire month of December. “We try as much as possible to redistribute the food to the particular communities that the branches

are in. Some branches don’t have food banks but we keep them wherever we can closest to the where the food was brought in,” said Coles. The Food 4 Fines program does not cover the cost of lost or damaged books. Alongside the Food 4 Fines program, the L&A Libraries is promoting membership activation and updating for a chance to win a Kobo e-reader. “We encourage people to either come in and sign up for a library card or come in and update their personal information. Everybody who does that will be entered into a draw for an e-reader,” she said. “It’s a way to keep those cards from expiring and to look into adding some value services, like automated hold notifications or notifications over email, and to also get a better handle on the demographic of the people we’re serving.”

Lennox & Addington County General Hospital Foundation Gala

AVE you ever started reading a book expecting it to be awesome, and then found that you really didn’t care for it – maybe even despised it? Or perhaps you liked the book all the way through but then the ending ruined it for you. Yes, you may have been disappointed… but did you feel betrayed? Would you have considered it a bad reading experience? At this year’s Reader’s Advisory in a Day workshop, librarians from all over Ontario were asked to reflect on the ‘Bad Reading Experience’. The bad reading experience often occurs when there’s a mismatch between a book and the reader’s expectations and/or preferences. You are probably wondering: ‘So what?’ Well, reading is a deeply personal activity and believe it or not, a bad experience can taint the reader against the book’s author and possibly even the person who suggested the book to them in the first place. If you think back along your history as a reader, I guarantee you’ll remember your all-time most hated books just as vividly as you do your absolute favorites. For library workers,

keepers by Alice Hoffman I learned that I have no interest in historical fiction set during ancient times, from Eat Pray Love by Elizabeth Gilbert I learned that for a memoir to work for me I needed to empathize with the narrator, and from Silver Bells by Luanne Rice I learned that I will never again attempt a seasonal romance novel. All of these books have been enjoyed by thousands upon thousands of readers; however, they weren’t for me. The next time you are reading a book you are not enjoying (hopefully it wasn’t suggested by library staff!), take note of what it is you dislike. When you are talking to us about what you should read next, don’t just mention some past books that you’ve enjoyed in the past. Tell us what you didn’t like. Of course, you may decide to employ another strategy for curing yourself of bad reading experiences entirely: putting a book down when you aren’t enjoying it and moving on to something new.

Catherine Coles Coles’ Notes the act of helping the right person find the right book at the right time is what we call reader’s advisory. We do our best to suggest (not recommend!) books that fit well with a reader’s preferences and try to avoid their dislikes or subject matters they are sensitive to. For instance, many are particularly sensitive to bad language, violence, sex or certain hot button topics while others may seek out these characteristics in a book. We try to learn these preferences in conversation with you as we discuss your next read. We also try our best to be unbiased when we suggest books — it doesn’t matter if we liked or disliked the book, it is all about you: the reader. Hopefully it will be a match made in reading heaven but if it is not, there is still value in the bad experience. We have all read books we didn’t like or even hated. In these cases I actually learned from the bad reading experience – I learned what I didn’t like, and what to avoid in the future. From The Dove-

EDITORIAL

Learning from a sad episode Recent sexual harassment allegations floating around Parliament Hill are exposing just how much we have to do to get better in dealing with these issues. The allegations are murky at this point — nonetheless, they have resulted in a pair of Liberal MPs being ejected from their caucus, a move taken by Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau after he was advised by an NDP MP, informally, that she and another female NDP MP had been harassed. The NDP has since protested Trudeau’s decision, saying that the matter should have been handled out of the public eye. Perhaps he should have dealt with the matter more privately. However, given that Parliament Hill doesn’t have a set procedure to use when dealing with these kinds of complaints and allegations, Trudeau didn’t have any ground rules to go by. Since the allegations came to light, there have been moves made by the House of Commons to contemplate developing those ground rules. That’s a good thing, because it’s hard to imagine how these matters could have unfolded in a more ham-handed way. It’s also hard to imagine how justice will ultimately be served. Those MPs who have been suspended have vehemently denied any wrongdoing. They haven’t been told, officially and specifically, what they’ve been accused of. That’s a pretty fundamental element of our justice system, but it’s missing in this case. The MPs who made the complaints said they didn’t want the allegations to go public; they said that they didn’t want to be ‘re-victimized’ by that kind of process. It’s a common desire among those who have faced sexual harassment or assault. While their names haven’t been revealed, they nevertheless are having to see this very delicate matter discussed in public. Those who feel that they have been wronged in this matter should not have to be ‘re-victimized’ in order to find justice. Given the nature of these kinds of incidents, perhaps it’s impossible to escape the inherent difficulties in seeing them resolved. These are difficult, delicate matters. However, we surely can do better than this. Indeed, if there is any good that can be derived from this case, it will be that if (or when) another of these incidents occur on the hill, we will have learned how to confront it better. In fact, we’ve got an obligation to do better, for all involved.

Building an Ontario bioeconomy With a mandate to enable prosperous and sustainable farms, the Ontario Federation of Agriculture continues cultivating new markets and opportunities for Ontario farmers and farm products. That’s why we’re working to build a bioeconomy industry in our province. The bioeconomy is the economic activity resulting from the production of renewable resources and converting them into feed, fuel, bioenergy and other biobased products. The OFA is working diligently with industry partners and farmers to create a healthy bioeconomy that includes processing plants and advanced technologies that can add important links to our expanding value

Don McCabe OFA Comment chain. One goal is to attract and build bioprocessing plants in Ontario to process biomass such as corn stalks and wheat straw residue into cellulosic sugar. Cellulosic sugar is another source of sugar from the farm that can be used to produce products including fuels and chemicals. Through extensive market development research and consulting Ontario farmers, the OFA knows there’s a lot of interest in our province to create markets for

our biomass products. This fall, nearly 1,000 Ontario farmers took part in two cornstalk harvesting demonstrations in southwestern Ontario. The interest in cutting and baling corn stalks, or corn stover was encouraging. The demonstrations, hosted by the OFA and numerous farmers, included the latest equipment for chopping, baling and stacking corn stover. Impressive results of a recent report from Iowa farmers currently producing bales of corn stover for cellulosic sugar production were shared with participants.

SEE OFA | PAGE 7 >

Thursday, November 27, 2014 OFA FROM PAGE 6 Corn stover, traditionally used for livestock bedding and cattle feed, has huge potential in Ontario for large scale harvesting. Corn stalks are composed of 47 per cent sugar. Increased corn yields in recent years have improved the amount of stover remaining after the grain is harvested. The ratio of grain corn production to corn stover is 1:1. That means one tonne of harvested grain corn will leave one tonne of corn stover. With that kind of yield, and a sustainable harvest protocol to ensure enough residue is left for the soil’s needs, Ontario farmers are potentially leaving a lot of money in the field. Iowa farmers reported net profits of $36 per acre from corn stover sales for cellulosic ethanol production. New market development opportunities are always welcome in Ontario’s agri-food industry. There’s huge potential for an Ontario biomass processing industry, and the resulting economic spin offs and jobs. We’ve got farmers ready and waiting to provide the feedstock. Now, we just need the processors and technology to extend the value chain. The OFA is working closely with industry, partnering to host events like the demonstrations this fall and appealing to all levels of government to assist in drawing processing companies to our rural neighbourhoods. Ontario is poised for a bioeconomy boom and agriculture is the cornerstone. Don McCabe of Lambton County is the new president of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture.

Letter To The Editor

Reviewing the election and the priorities ahead for council Congratulations to the successful candidates on being elected to take care of business for Greater Napanee and its citizens. Needless to say, much will be expected from all of you. As they say, ‘you wanted the job – let’s get the job done’. I spent a lot of time speaking to numerous residents of Greater Napanee before, during and after the elections. I have listed below what I heard and concerns that people raised before the municipal election. n People wanted change – not necessarily a 100 per cent turn over in council members (except for a few) but rather a change to the approach for dealing with the residents. People wanted a more proactive way of dealing with everyone — you know, the ones who pay the bills: more accountability, more transparency and clear concise communications about what goes on in town on a regular basis. n A clear path about the pool situation which has be lingering too long. n Lower taxes. n A clear policy regarding our rural/urban tax system. n Clearer financial information with details of expenses. n A clear review of the town’s performance against budget and a comprehensive copy of the budget as early as completed — not six months down the road. These figures are to show comparative final numbers against budget with remarks. n A clear program on how to tackle the debt including what goals will be reached. n Clear up the wind turbine and solar panel issues. n Explain what will happen with policing costs. n A resolution regarding the garbage situation. n Better money management. n A recycling program that works. n Council meetings boring – we need more open debates. n Who negotiates contracts for the town and what are the results fol-

lowing the negotiations? n Why is land purchased or sold — for what use, how much and what happens to the profits from the sales? n The viability of MPAC. Prior to the elections, the municipality held an information session for all of the candidates to inform them of the main issues being faced by our town. This was a good exercise. For those who did not obtain a copy of these issues you can contact your councillor or call the municipal office. Prior to the elections I wrote three columns published in the Napanee Beaver and in each I asked specific questions that, to this day, remain unanswered. I would appreciate follow up from the successful candidates. Regarding the election process, we needed to move with the times and did that when a decision was made to use the e-voting system. I am confident that everyone did their best to follow the procedures; however, there were far too many flaws in the process and the instructions were not clear or complete enough for many voters. As far as the procedures are concerned, perhaps the company that provided the system, should be brought in to explain themselves. Should they be considered for the next election? I was also disappointed when attending the council meeting on Nov. 10. Mayoral candidate Robert Dorey made an excellent presentation to council asking for two things: to have a recount for the mayoral race which was approved and to have a full audit, which in my opinion and that of others, must be done fully. While it may not have been the responsibility of the current council to deal with the audit that night, I would have expected the full support of council members and that they would have made a formal request to the new elected council to deal with the audit as soon as possible. Further, this audit must include people from the

community to come to tell their stories about what went wrong. This full audit has to be made public — not to embarrass anyone, but to tell people what happened and how it will be corrected. The Napanee Guide reported that Susan Beckel commented that much of the information she needed was not available to her. To me this is not an acceptable situation from the company that provided the service. New council members, you are all about to be put in charge of reviewing expenses totalling over $100 million over the next four years — preferably less. Every dime of these expenses needs to be reviewed with fresh eyes as if it was your own money — part of it is. A real plan to be made public to address the town’s debt, currently sitting at over $15 million. Council needs to pass a resolution to never borrow above this level without a referendum. The representatives who will attend Lennox and Addington County council need to read the comments I wrote on Oct. 16 in the Beaver. Many answers are required. The important thing to remember is that the county is looking at spending in excess of $500 million over the next four years. Surely the County can get by on much less, especially considering the tax increase for 2014 that was not even needed. Why did this happen? Someone within the municipality (not a new hire) needs to be appointed as a spokesperson on behalf of the municipality to keep the residents apprised of what is happening now and in the future. What will happen to the savings for the reduced policing costs? Payment on the debt perhaps? In 2001, Hydro One purchased the Napanee electrical utility. To this day I am still unsure of the final amount of the sale as the info from town hall does not match the info from Hydro One. There is a difference of $450,000. I under-

stand that the money from the sale was to be invested in perpetuity and that only the interest was to be spent. What was the real sale amount? Is the entire amount still invested and if not why not? What is the interest being used for and what interest comes from the investments? After five years of requesting that an entry be added to the council agenda to allow citizens the opportunity to communicate with council — on the record — this has not transpired. I think it is time to get this done. Of course not all questions will be answered that night; however, follow-up will be required to be sure the question is answered at a later date. Obviously, there is a lot of work to do. It promises to be a very busy four years. Best wishes for much success. On a good note, Mr. Andre Marin, the Ontario Ombudsman, was given added responsibilities to help out or support municipalities with operational guidelines. It was encouraging to see a 47 per cent turnout for the voting; however, it also means that less than half of possible voters voted for the current council that will take care of Greater Napanee going forward. This too must change. Pierre Cliche, Greater Napanee

Moving forward, or is it backward thinking? A recent letter to the editor that has appeared in several local newspapers regarding wind energy is just another example of the ill-informed ignoring the damage this so-called ‘green energy’ does to the biodiversity that sustains us as a human race. That birds are not “stupid” and “can see turbines” and will avoid them, may not be the most absurd statement I have read in support of wind turbines, but it is clearly among the top two. Even those in support of this form of energy are better informed than that. Then, to follow it up by claiming there is “no evidence of wholesale slaughter of birds by wind turbines” simply boggles the mind. How does this author explain TransAlta’s turbine project on Wolfe Island which has caused the highest mortality rate of birds and bats in North America, with the exception of Altamont pass in California and, and has displaced the indigenous and wintering Red Tail Hawk and Short Eared Owl populations? Even supporters of wind energy are in agreement that wind turbines do kill wildlife; the question is how much do supporters of wind energy really care, and how much importance do they place on biodiversity being critical to our own survival? And the mindless claim

that cats kill more birds is getting a little tired. President of the Prince Edward County Field Naturalists, Myrna Wood of Picton, provides some sobering statistics. The evening grosbeak, she reports, is one of Canada’s declining species. It has declined 78 per cent in the last 40 years. Other examples of species decline: our iconic Canada warbler: 80 per cent; rusty blackbird: 90 per cent; olive-sided flycatcher 79 per cent; bay-breasted warbler 70 per cent. Populations of vertebrate species, including mammals, birds, fish, amphibians and reptiles have fallen on average by 52 percent since 1970. The root cause of these decimations is simple — loss of habitat, she says. “This loss of habitat and the species they support is a crisis for our planet. Not only do we humans urgently need to stop the use of fossil fuels, we also need to urgently move to conserve the habitats of our remaining wildlife. “In order to stop fossil fuel use we must implement conservation by investing in retrofitting all 19th-20th century technology in our buildings and vehicles and begin to build alternative sources of power. It is imperative that these new developments be sited in places that we humans have already removed from nature in

Terry Sprague

Outdoor Rambles order to preserve the scarce wildlife lands that remain. New developments should not be sited in land that functions as significant habitat for wild species.” Make no mistake; our undeveloped wild places play a vital role in mitigating the effects of climate change. Forests and wetlands sequester carbon keeping it out of the atmosphere, while tall grass prairies actually remove carbon from it. Wetlands prevent flooding and erosion and replenish our aquifers. Alvars and other seasonal wetland habitats filter contaminants, keeping them out of our streams and lakes. What allows these invaluable habitats to mitigate climate change are the

wild species they support. Without these wild species, they will no longer function. Eventually they will cease to exist at all. The undeveloped south shore is therefore critical in protecting undisturbed habitat. Ontario has more than 6,000 wind turbines built, planned or proposed, the majority in Southwestern Ontario. Turbines generate only about per cent of the province’s power. Contrary to what some apparently think, the nine turbines at Ostrander Point will not save the world, but they will put lots of “green” into the pockets of the developers. And at the end of the day, that’s what it’s all about. PECFN has raised almost $200,000 to pay the legal costs of these appeals against Gilead Power, the Ministry of Environment and the 291 corporations of the Canadian Wind Energy Association. The support of field naturalist clubs and concerned citizens from all parts of Ontario is needed because the work they are doing will affect environmental law for the province and the county. The PECFN is appealing the Ostrander Point Crown Land wind project at the highest Court in Ontario. The hearing will occur at Osgoode Hall Dec 8-9. Ostrander Point Crown Land is situated in an Important Bird and Biodi-

versity Area — a refuge for migrating birds, bats and butterflies - it contains provincially significant wetlands, globally imperilled Alvar habitat and is the home and breeding ground of several avian, reptilian and amphibian species at risk, such as the Blanding’s turtle. At present, says Myrna Wood, the Divisional Court’s ruling on Ostrander Point undercuts the ability of the Environmental Review Tribunal to make decisions based on the evidence before it. PECFN’s appeal of the Divisional Court ruling is a precedent setting case that impacts the validity of the Environmental Review Tribunal, the Endangered Species Act and the Environmental Protection Act. As such it will affect environmental law across Ontario. As Justice Blair, who granted a stay against any construction on the site said, “the issues raised on the proposed appeal are issues of broad public implication in the field of environmental law”.

A trip through the pages of The Napanee Beaver 50 Years Ago November 25, 1964 n An ongoing drought had local agricultural officials sounding some alarm bells. County agricultural representative G.M. Mills said that, unless the area got a good two or three days of rain soon, L&A County beef producers might be forced to market their animals ahead of time for the upcoming winter. The drought was causing ponds and creeks to dry up, putting a strain on local herds. Further, the lack of rain could jeopardize the following year’s crops. n Not long after Richmond Township announced that it was shutting down its oneroom schoolhouses, North Fredericksburgh Township announced it would be following suit. The township had nine schoolhouses in operation. They’d be replaced by a new central school on Hamburgh Road, which would feature eight classrooms. n The Canadian Army announced that it would be closing the Napanee Armouries, and would likely put the building on Centre Street up for sale. An information officer from headquarters in Kingston said the 47th Battery would turn the building over to a works company of Royal Canadian Engineers as the first step in that process.

35 Years Ago November 28, 1979 n Local MPP James Taylor issued a press release outlining his dissatisfaction with the Community Telephone Company’s decision to increase rates for local customers. “If the Community Telephone Company cannot operate a viable service at sensible rates, then it should pull out in favour of a company that can. Rural residents deserve better than what they are getting,” Taylor said. Some customers were going to see their base rates double in cost if the price increases went ahead as planned. n Napanee and area Roman Catholic school board supporters would get a chance to see their board in action. The Frontenac-Lennox and Addington Roman Catholic Separate School Board, which usually met at its board offices on Stephen Street in Kingston, would use the L&A County council chambers for its upcoming inaugural board meeting. Following the meeting, trustees and supporters would take part in a reception at the Campbell House. A new chair and vice-chair would be elected at the meeting.

Many of the biographies of John Alexander Macdonald appear to have a gap in his early life. It is as if his childhood and adolescence were not significant in his career and life, except as a series of interesting but relatively non-essential events. On closer examination, a pattern emerges and that pattern was his close relationship to Donald Macpherson of Kingston and in particular Donald’s son, Allan Macpherson of Napanee. John Alexander Macdonald, born in Glasgow on Jan. 15, 1815, arrived in Kingston in 1820 as a five-year-old child with his parents, Hugh and Helen Macdonald, and three siblings, Margaret, James and Louisa. It was not by chance that the Macdonald Family landed in Kingston for this was an era when connections were paramount. Helen’s sister, Anna, was married to Lieutenant-Colonel Donald Macpherson (Uncle Donald), who had valiantly served in the British Army during the American War of Independence and the French Wars in the 1790s. When Wellington took his army to Portugal to fight the successful Peninsular War against Napoleon, Donald Macpherson was judged to be too old to participate. Instead, he was despatched to Kingston, considered to be a quiet colonial outpost, just in time for the outbreak of the War of 1812-14. He was in Kingston in the fall of 1812, when American Commodore Chauncey tried to capture the town with his navy and failed. Subsequently, Donald was stationed at Quebec. He returned to Kingston in 1817, where he retired, a war hero and a respected man, influential in the thriving city of eastern Lake Ontario. Kingston had emerged from its early years as a new home and a new opportunity for the Loyalists. It was at this time the significant part of the growing area called Midland, transforming itself from a link between Montreal and York into the hub for trade and commerce in its own right. The two main projects in this transformation were the construction of the Rideau Canal between 1826 and 1831 and the completion of Fort Henry in 1836. The Rideau Canal opened the land north of Kingston for farming and logging with a safe, navigable route to Montreal and Europe down the Ottawa River. The projects required the formation of a bank in Kingston in 1830, the Commercial Bank of the Midland District. These opportunities awaited a young man with connections. The family with connections was the Macpherson Family. Even after Donald died in 1828, his widow, Anna, continued the family connections. John was a frequent visitor to the Macpherson house during his school days. John finished his formal education in 1829. As a law school in Upper Canada had not yet been established, John received his practical training by articling with a close friend of the Macpherson Family, George Mackenzie. Under his sponsorship, John travelled to York in 1830 and received his certificate after passing the law examination. John

Sir John A. Macdonald in 1858. returned to Kingston as a junior member of that prestigious law firm. The next step was the creation of the Commercial Bank of the Midland District. Francis Harper, who married Williamina Macpherson, one of John’s cousins, became its General Manager. George Mackenzie became the bank’s solicitor. Later John succeeded him as the solicitor for the bank. It was an association that lasted for many years for it was the entry for John into the business and financing enterprises of the entire Midland District. It was also through George Mackenzie that John became associated with the Conservative Party, an association that last until his death on June 6, 1891. In 1832, George Mackenzie opened a branch office within the growing community of Napanee. He assigned John to head up the office although John could not handle any legal business. At that time, a lawyer had to have attained the age of 21. Mackenzie permitted John some latitude in Napanee but kept a close watch on his student, writing him letters full of advice. George acted as a mentor to John. John found another connection in Napanee: Allan Macpherson (17851875), the ‘Laird of Napanee’, the son of Donald Macpherson by his first wife, Elspeth. Allan’s open support smoothed the way for John in Napanee and the surrounding area. John returned to Kingston in 1833, a mature 18-year-old, who had successfully founded the branch office for the Mackenzie firm. The Macpherson connections continued. When Donald’s son, Lowther Macpherson, became ill and needed an assistant with law expertise in Hallowell, Prince Edward County, John ran his law firm. Everything looked on course in Kingston. George Mackenzie was selected as a Conservative candidate for the 1834 election. But fate stepped in. The plague hit Kingston that year and one of its 265 victims was George Mackenzie. Just as damaging, the Conservatives lost the general election. John returned to Kingston in 1835 and opened his own law office. He relied on the goodwill and clientele of his mentor, George Mackenzie. Anna Macpherson died in the fall of 1835, while John was awaiting his birthday on Jan. 15 when he would

SEE PAGE 13

finally be recognized as an attorney. Lowther Macpherson also died in the Caribbean. John became the recognized leader of the MacphersonMackenzie connection. All his career ducks were in a row. He had a law practice; through his connection with Francis Harper, married to his cousin, he became more involved with the Commercial Bank of Midland; he had strong connections with the Conservative Party and was instrumental in the victorious election of 1836. At 21, he had emerged as a young lawyer with all the connections he would need to launch his career as a successful attorney and the beginnings of his political life. All of this, the result of his family relationship with his uncle, Donald Macpherson. So, who was Donald Macpherson? Donald Macpherson is a major hero in Canadian history. If he were not living in Kingston in 1820, it is very unlikely that the Macdonald Family would have come to Canada at all. He had a rich family history and had more lives than a cat. The Macphersons were an historic Scottish clan, Celtic, dating back to the mists of time. The Macpherson lands are located in Badenoch east and south of Inverness, along the Spee River. Clan Macphersons confederated with other small clans in the area, the Macleans, the Mackintoshes, the Shaws, the Macintyres and others into a super clan called Clan Chattan. Consequently, the Macpherson clan and Clan Chattan were involved in all the countless battles of Scottish history, glorious and not so glorious. The final battle was just north of Badenoch at Culloden on April 16, 1746 between the supporters of the Stuart monarchy, which included Clan Chattan and the Macphersons, and the forces for the Hanoverian monarchy, supported by other clans. It was the final battle on British soil. Outnumbered and under the leadership of Bonnie Prince Charlie, the clans charged against the guns of the enemy. Over one thousand died. It was the end of the clan system. Many Macphersons died that day and in the aftermath. The clan lands were confiscated and a large reward was set for the capture of their Chief, Cluny Macpherson, who hid out in the caves north of Badenoch for 9 years without capture. With the dream gone, the losing clans had only one way to redeem themselves in the Hanoverian regime. If troops were raised to fight the wars of the British Empire, lands were restored. Fortunately, there were many wars, requiring many troops. The first was the Seven Years War (1756-1763). Many Highland soldiers were raised including the Macleans who were part of the force that captured Pittsburgh in 1758. The Frasers of the 78th Regiment helped General Wolfe capture Louisburg and Quebec in 1759 and Colonel Simon Fraser regained the Clan lands forfeited after the disaster at Culloden in 1746. When the Revolutionary War broke out in 1775, the Frasers again provided troops, recruiting many from Clan Chattan. These troops, all Highlanders, became the 71st Regiment of Foot, Fraser’s Highlanders, a force of 2,340.

Santa set to pay visits with parades next month

BY ASHLEY ESPINOZA Staff Reporter

With less than a month until Christmas, each community is planning a Santa

Claus Parade so everyone can get a glimpse of St. Nick before the big day. Between this weekend and next, Greater Napanee, Deseronto and Tamworth will each hold com-

munity Christmas parades. This Saturday, Deseronto will be having its Christmas parade with about 25 floats. The parade will start at 4:30 p.m. fol-

Sto Story Time ime with Sa Santa n

lowed by a tree lighting ceremony, Christmas carols and refreshments with Santa in Rathbun Park. The parade route can be viewed online, at www.deseronto.ca. The parade will start and end at the intersection of Water Street and Mill Street and will loop around down Thomas Street, Fourth Street, and Main Street. Donations for the local food bank will be collected along the parade route. Dec. 6 will be Greater Napanee’s Parade of Lights, starting at 6:30 p.m. “We are nearing the 20float mark, but are welcoming everyone to enter a walking group, or a float. We usually have a handful or more of new participants every year, which is great,” said Greater Napanee special events assistant

Bethany Lessard. Letters to Santa will be collected along the route, as well as non-perishable food donations for the local food bank. The parade route is the same as last year. It will start at Belleville Road, to West Street, to Dundas Street, to Alma Street, to Bridge Street, to Robert Street, to Graham Street and will finish back at Napanee District Secondary School. More information on the parade, and details on the parade route, can be found online at, www.greaternapanee.com. Greater Napanee staff is asking that the public refrain from parking on Dundas Street during the afternoon and evening of the parade. On Dec. 7, the village of Tamworth will be hosting

its annual Santa Claus Parade at 1 p.m., comprised of about 30 floats. The parade will begin at the River Bakery and last until the soccer field on County Road 4. Photos with Santa and light refreshments will be available at the Royal Canadian Legion No. 458 following the parade. Letters to Santa and food donations for the Lions Club Christmas Hampers can be brought to the Legion after the parade. Tamworth’s Smalltown Diner will be providing hot chocolate and hot dogs leading up to the parade, from 11:30 a.m. until 12:45 p.m. A Christmas craft fair will also be taking place before and after the parade throughout downtown Tamworth. For more information, visit www.tamworth.ca.

1984 time capsule reburied with items from today BY ADAM PRUDHOMME Staff Reporter

ELICS from 2014 were packed into a cooler that doubled as a time capsule and buried outside the Newburgh post office on Saturday, where it will stay for the next 30 years. Among the items buried were a cellphone, popular DVDs, photos, a current edition of the Napanee Beaver and let-

Cooler filled with ‘artifacts’ back under the ground at Newburgh post office ters from loved ones, to name a few. This will mark the second time the village has buried a time capsule outside the post office, the first being done back in 1984. It was dug up this past summer, 30 years after its original burial, as part of Music in the Hollow celebrations. Items from its original burial were mixed in with those from 2014

before it was re-planted into the ground. Members of the public were free to bring any items they’d like to contribute to the post office on Saturday morning. The original idea sprang from Ontario’s bicentennial celebrations back in ‘84. Like several communities across the province, Newburgh organized a bicentennial bash

FARM • HOME AUTO INSURANCE

and the time capsule was part of that celebration. They received a Trillium Grant from the government to help fund the weekend’s activities. “They had log rolling, we had wife calling, log sawing, a baseball game,” recalled Sam Anderson, who helped organize the first burial and was on hand for Saturday’s. “Out of a village of 500 people, three-quarters of the people were here. It was 350 people or so that attended.” Saturday’s burial was a lot more low-key, but still generated plenty of interest as members of the village gathered outside the post office. Many of those who

were just kids when the capsule was buried in ‘84 were on hand at the community hall this past August when its contents were examined. “That was a wonderful occasion because everyone who was aware of it came down to the hall to look over it,” said Wenda Lalande, a member of the Rogues’ Hallow Renewal Committee. A little more care was put into the preservation of some of the items this time around, as Newburgh Public School offered to laminate some of the documents so they would be preserved until the next time they open the capsule. Overall though the majori-

ty of the contents from ‘84 stood the test of time. “It was not bad,” said Lalande. “A little mouldy and mildewy, but it wasn’t bad at all. It didn’t disintegrate at all.” Items were clearly labeled as to which year they were added to the capsule to avoid any confusion for those who examine it in the future. Only time will tell what the world will be like the next time the capsule is opened in 30 years. One thing is clear, that today’s youth will be able to share a laugh with their kids or possibly grandkids as they explain to them what a cellphone is or who Michael Jackson was.

The Macpherson troops were recruited by Lieutenant Colonel Duncan Macpherson. One of his young officers was 20 year old Lieutenant Donald Macpherson. The fact that he was a lieutenant suggests that Donald was a significant part of the clan hierarchy. The Fraser Highlanders landed in Boston Harbour in 1776 and began five years of continuous fighting in the northern and southern states until the ultimate surrender with General Cornwallis at Yorktown in 1781. Not only did Donald survive the many battles and the diseases of the American continent but he was such an outstanding leader that he is mentioned twice in Christopher Ward’s exhaustive history The War of the Revolution (1952) first during the battles in South Carolina, where he led 150 infantry at Fort Motte and later at Yorktown, where Lieutenant

T H E

Macpherson defended one of the redoubts in front of the main army of General Cornwallis. After the surrender, Lieutenant Macpherson and the remaining troops of Fraser’s Highlanders, endured two years as prisoners of war, before returning home in 1783. Quite enough action for one life, but not for Donald! During the wars with France before Napoleon, he raised two companies of soldiers, one from his own clansmen, the Cluny Volunteers. Donald married a clanswoman Elspeth Macpherson with whom he had one child Allan Macpherson, the ‘Laird of Napanee’ in 1785. When Elspeth died, Donald married another clanswoman, Ann Shaw, the aunt of John A. Macdonald in 1795 and started a second family. During those years of war Donald survived and was promoted first to Captain in 1803 and to Major in 1805 in the 92nd Foot. When his battalion went to Portugal to fight with Wellington against the forces of Napoleon, Donald, then 52, was believed to be too old for active fighting. He was instead stationed

in 1807 to a quiet section of the Empire, Canada. In 1809, he was given the command of Kingston. When war with America broke out in 1812, Donald set about defending this crucial supply link to York and the western part of Upper Canada. He oversaw the defence of Kingston during the naval attack by Commodore Chauncey in November 1812 and sustained its independence. In 1813, Donald and his family were transferred to Quebec where he assumed command. He remained in Quebec for the duration of the war, returning to Kingston in 1817. There he became its most prominent citizen and the patron of many of its organizations. It was this scion of Kingston who in 1820 welcomed the family of his brother-in-law, Hugh Macdonald, his Clan Chattan wife, Helen (Shaw) Macdonald and their children including five-year old John Alexander. Had Donald died in the many battles that he fought; had he been severely wounded so that he could not command the forces in Kingston in 1812 at the age of 57; had he

ATV stolen in Deseronto Beaver Staff

Local OPP are on the lookout for a stolen all-terrain vehicle. The OPP say that sometime overnight between this past Friday and Saturday night, a black 2011 Arctic Cat ATV was stolen from a shed on Finglands Lane in Deseronto. The ATV is described as being in ‘like new’ condition, with a gun holder rack on the right side. The ATV has ‘Arctic Cat’ written in green letters on the gas tank and bears Ontario licence 03WP2.

succumbed to the many diseases of camp life or in the confines of the American prisoner of war camp from 1781 until 1783, it is unlikely that the Macdonald family would have come to Kingston. It is more unlikely that John Alexander could have started a career without Uncle Donald’s connections to the law firm of George Mackenzie, to the Commercial Bank of Midland and the Conservative Party. It is difficult to form the picture of Canada as it stands to-day without John A. Macdonald. He was the

critical force for Confederation in the 1860s when the Unification Act was about to disintegrate; he was the prime motivator of Canada’s unique form of government with a strong central government; he was the inspiration of the national railway, which bound northern North America into a separate country with an east-west axis. Could the Canada of 2014 exist without John A. Macdonald? Without (Uncle) Donald Macpherson and his connections, could there have been a Father of Confederation, named

TransCanada is seeking two local candidates to join the CLC: • One applicant shall be a resident of Greater Napanee living within 3 kilometres of the NGS site (Hwy 33, just east of County Rd 21); and • One applicant shall be a resident of Loyalist Township.

few individuals were honoured for their achievements over the past year. Jill Brown, who is graduating from the club this year, was awarded the Top Agricultural Member of the Year. She has been with the club for much of her life, showing animals at fairs across the region. Taylor Huff-Hauseux was the Top Life-Style Member of the Year. Laura Hale and Emelia HuffHauseux were presented with the Gay Lea Award of Achievement after they completed at least 24 projects and have been with the club for five years. All volunteers were saluted but a special mention was given to Keith Coleman, who has devoted 15 years to the club. Along with celebrating its top members the evening was a chance to reflect back on the previous year. Among the additions to the club this year was the Cloverbud program, which is geared towards ages six to eight. Previously a child had to be at least nine years old to be associated with the club. “It gives them a good introduction into the 4-H program,” said L&A 4-H Club president Dave Goodfellow. “The way the pro-

gram is set up they get an introduction to all the available clubs that 4-H provides and they get an idea what sort of things they might be interested in when they become a full member.” Numbers were good for the first year as they had 13 members registered. By engaging youth at a younger age, Goodfellow is hoping to generate more interest for 4-H, which saw a bit of a dip in its membership this year. Also to help combat that problem, they’ve decided to keep running programs throughout the winter months this year, which will be a first for the L&A chapter. “A lot of life skills that are usually done inside, a lot of the crafts and baking, things like that,” Goodfellow said of what sort of clubs they’ll run throughout the winter. “Kids are looking for things to do in the winter so we’re looking to get the kids more involved during that time of the year.” Looking ahead to next year, 2015 will mark the 100th anniversary of 4-H in Ontario. Clubs throughout the province will hold special events throughout the year to mark the occasion and the L&A chapter will be no different.

Deseronto fundraiser comes through for shelter BY ASHLEY ESPINOZA Staff Reporter

A fundraiser in Deseronto last weekend raised $555 and filled two truckloads with donations of clothing, food and Christmas toys for the Lennox and Addington Interval House. Michelle DeSousa, owner of The Fork in the Road Eatery in Deseronto, and Independent Legal Shield Associate Michelle Bradfield, organized a fundraiser dubbed ‘No One Gets Forgotten’. The fundraiser took place on Nov. 15 at the restaurant. “We had Santa Claus here for the small ones and four horses here out front walking giving kids rides. Then at 4 p.m. we changed it over to an adult event,” explained DeSousa. Hot chocolate, cookies and photos with Santa were available at the restaurant from 11 a.m. until 3 p.m., all by donation. From 4-8 p.m., a wine and cheese event with live entertainment and a silent auction was held for adults. “Within the four hours (4-8 p.m.), we raised more than $500,” said DeSousa. “A lot of the gifts were sponsored by community businesses.” All of the money raised has been donated to the Lennox and Addington Interval House in Napanee. For about a week leading up to the fundraiser, The Fort in the Road Eatery accepted donations of food, clothing and new toys. DeSousa said the fundraiser was well supported by the community, which helped to make it a great success for Interval House. “I had a lot of support from Legal Shield and from Scouts Canada (First Napanee Valley Cub Scouts),” she said.

Even more women, who are living on their own or who once stayed at the shelter, go to the Interval House on a regular basis in need of clothing, personal care products and furniture. Weir said Interval House is in need of food, diapers, personal hygiene products, toilet paper, shampoos, soaps, garbage bags, cleaning products, pet foods, new socks and underwear, towels, sheets, and gently used appliances and furniture. “We talk to them about where stuff comes from. For them, they think, ‘I’m going through all this stuff that’s really hard and distressing,’ and to find out that people who have never met

them, or met their kids, go to the extent of putting on a fundraiser or donating Christmas gifts for their children, it really has a huge impact how they feel,” said Weir. “They go, ‘I can’t believe people, who I’ve never met, went through all this work on my behalf.’ And that really makes a difference for the women. They really feel like they’re alone and isolated. Then they really get that sense that there’s a whole bunch of people who don’t really know them personally but really care about what they’re going through. That impact is huge,” Weir added.

Peirson saves the day for Napanee with OT winner Raiders finally beat Panthers

BY ADAM PRUDHOMME Staff Reporter

ome ice was critical for the Napanee Raiders and Port Hope Panthers this week as the two clubs split one goal decisions in their home and away series. After the Panthers held on for a 4-3 win in Port Hope on Saturday, Napanee's Will Peirson pulled out the victory on Tuesday, tapping in the overtime winner-sort of. “Riley Steeves was crashing to the net at the back door and so I tried to feed it to him and their guy got a stick on it,” Peirson said of the three-on-three OT winner. “It was just a lucky bounce (off the Port Hope defender’s stick) and it went in. It was pretty nice and pretty lucky.” Napanee was fortunate to secure the win after

watching three different leads evaporate. They went into the first break up 2-0 thanks to a pair of goals Brodie Butt. After the Panthers roared back with a pair of goals in the second, Keenan Murray restored the lead only to see the Panthers answers back. Jordan Cannons and Dylan Baxter traded power-play goals late in the third to send the game into sudden death OT. “They’re not going to quit,” Raiders head coach said of the Panthers. “We knew that and they started to get pucks in deep and we made a few mistakes down low and they took advantage. It was nice to see that response back after they scored some goals.” The win marked the first time in five tries the Raiders have defeated the Panthers. On Saturday they came close to besting the first place team, holding a 3-2 lead heading into the final 20 minutes. The Panthers

scored for the Raiders, who did all their damage in the second. With the weekend split the Raiders still sit eight games back of the Pan-

thers, who at 16-3-1 have 33 points. The Raiders, now at 12-8-1, did however move into sole possession of second place, two points better than the 11-8-1

Campbellford Rebels (23 points). Amherstview holds the fourth spot with a 10-9 record (20 points), five points up on 7-11-1 Picton. Now officially into the second half of the 40 game season, the Raiders coach was asked for his thoughts of the first 21 games. “I’m pleased,” said Hartwick. “Results are very important, I know that, but I’m pleased guys are getting better and the guys have been maintaining a good attitude and working hard. We expect that and we’re doing that. I’m very pleased for a variety of reasons, but I’m not content at all. I think we can still do better and we will get better.” The Raiders will head to Amherstview on Saturday before returning home to host the Deseronto Storm on Tuesday. Both games are 7:30 p.m. puck drops. For his OT winner Peirson is the Ontario Milk Producers Raider of the Week.

Minor Bantams can’t tame Better showing, same end result for Storm Toros in division finals Deseronto plays competitive game but still fall 6-4 to Jets Stars host 10th annual tournament Beaver Sports

he Napanee Minor Bantam Stars came one goal short of capturing their division at the McGarvey Memorial Hockey Tournament last weekend. Facing their Lakeshore League archrival Clarington in the finals on Sunday, the Stars couldn’t quite solve the Toros, falling 4-3. Despite spotting Clarington a 2-0 lead after the first period, the Stars managed to claw back into the game to make it 2-1 after two. The Toros restored their twogoal bulge early in the third, only to see the Stars score twice to tie it up. Unfortunately for the home side, the Toros sealed the victory with a goal with just over a minute left to play. Corbin Gibson scored a pair in the losing cause, while Liam Wilkinson sniped another. Gibson, Wilkinson and Keegan Makpah all earned assists. Cole East started the game, but left about halfway through the game with an injury; Murray Craig backstopped the Stars the rest of the way. While Napanee played some of their best hockey of the season during the tournament, turning in domi-

nant performances in the round-robin, their record didn’t reflect it. The Stars outplayed the Vaughan Rangers in the first game on Friday, but only came away with a 1-1 tie. Ethan Armstrong scored, with assists to Josh Cudd and Kolten Montpetit. East earned the draw in net. It was a very similar story in Game 2 against the Metcalfe River Rats, with another 1-1 final. Gibson scored, with Justin Jones and Armstrong earning helpers. Craig was nearly perfect between the pipes for Napanee. In Game 3, the Stars needed a win or a tie to ensure a berth in the playoff; the Casselman-Embrun Ice Dogs, on the other hand, needed to win to play on Sunday. They dominated the Ice Dogs, but late in the third, only had a 0-0 draw to show for it. The desperate Ice Dogs, needing a goal to win, pulled their netminder for a last stab at a win. Jones, however, made them pay with an empty-net goal and the game winner for a 1-0 final. East collected up the shutout win in net.

seemingly never ending parade to the penalty box was the Deseronto Storm’s undoing on Friday, crushing their chances of a comeback in a 6-4 loss to the visiting Amherstview Jets. The Jets enjoyed 14 power-plays on the night, scoring on four of them. A less than two minute span in the first was particularly fruitful for them as Cassidy Bruni, Brody Taylor and Cody Smith all scored in that stretch, all on the power-play. All told the Jets scored five times in the first, four of those coming on the power-play. Infractions ranged from boarding to cross checking with a bench minor mixed in. Deseronto meanwhile had just four chances with the man-advantage, scoring one time. That difference didn’t sit well with the Storm coaching staff, who have grown frustrated with lopsided penalty calls against their team. Deseronto has been handed 728 minutes worth of penalties, which is over 200 more than Port Hope’s 524, the second most penalized team in the league. While he admits his young players are ‘no angels’, he says he’s taken

Amherstview’s Max Brunner (front) makes a fast stop as he tries to deke Deseronto’s Brodie Maracle during Friday’s game. issue with the mounting calls and the fact that referees won’t skate offer and offer an explanation of a call in-game. “I’m 46 years old, and this (upsets me) and frustrates me to no end,” said Storm head coach Rob Adams. “I can only imagine what it’s like to be 17, 18 or 19 or whatever they are, they’re just kids.” Adams, Brett Bateman and Bobby Breadman were each assessed abuse of officials game misconducts in the third. Despite playing shorthanded for so much of the game the Storm did man-

age to play one of their more competitive games in close to a month. Jordan Guindon gave the home team a lead just 1:39 into the game but it was quickly undone by five straight Jets goals. Despite trailing 5-1 to open the second the Storm showed determination and began to chip away as Mitchell Thompson, Breadman and Chris Rogalsky each scored to cut the Jets’ lead to 6-4. They weren’t able to muster much in the third however, getting outshot 17-5. Matt Loveys finished the game with 56 saves in the losing

effort while the Jets’ Graeme Gemmill-Peters finished with 21 saves. With the loss the Storm drop to 1-18 on the year. Not surprisingly the team now has the added pressure of trying to keep its players engaged as they get set to play out the second half of the season far removed from a playoff race. “It’s going to be really hard, we have kids that want to quit and kids that want to be traded and we have this or that,” said Adams. “It’s going to be hard enough to hold this team together. It’s a struggle.” Adams says he’s not going to give up on the team and noted the players did put forth a solid effort on Friday even when trailing for most of the game. Despite their struggles the team continues to draw fans as about 100 spectators took in Friday’s game. Most seemed to be backing the Storm. The Storm will next be in action tomorrow night when they host the Campbellford Rebels for a 7:30 p.m. puck drop. On Saturday they travel to Port Hope for a tough showdown with the Panthers and on Tuesday they will be in Napanee. Both road games start at 7:30 p.m.

STARS | Bantam Stars exact revenge on Canadians

HAY BAY TIRE SHOP

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 18 In the semifinals, the Stars faced off against Kingston, a team that had beaten them twice in league play. This time, however, the Stars — complete with a revived scoring touch — shut out the Canadians 3-0. Adam Burger, Wilkinson and Kaden Fredenburgh all scored for the Stars. Logan Votary had two assists, while Nate Brant, Cudd, Armstrong and Gibson all had singles. Craig made some key saves to pick up the shutout. The Stars return to regular season play this Friday and Saturday with games against the Port Perry Predators (8 p.m.) and the Pickering Panthers (6 p.m.) respectively. n The Country Traditions Novice squad displayed solid play in the Napanee tournament, finishing round robin play with a win, a tie, and two losses. They defeated West End 21 with a pair of goals by Ben Buxton. In a tight game against the eventual finalists, Russell, they were edged 2-1, with Coulson South scoring with Caleb South and Seth Rivers assisting. Against Sunday's champions, Leitrim, they kept it close, but fell 2-0. In their fourth game, an exciting 2-2 match with Canterbury, they fell behind early, as Owen Kinghan scored for their opponents. Zered Haller knotted the score at one, assisted by Lukas Jarmin. Canterbury found the net with under four minutes left, and the crowd felt the game was slipping away, but the Stars rallied as Karter Vermilyea came right back with the equalizer for the Stars, assisted by Buxton. n The Gray’s IDA Minor Atom Stars also participated in the McGarvey Memorial Tournament. In the round-robin on Friday, the Stars skated to a hardfought 2-2 tie with Prince Edward County. Later that same day, the Stars put together one of their strongest efforts of the season, completely controlling the second and third periods, leading to a 6-1 victory over the Mississippi Thunder Kats. Saturday, the Stars ran into a power house team from Laval, and despite the strong effort, were defeated 7-0. Going into the final roundrobin game against West End (Ottawa), and with identical 1 win, 1 loss, 1 tie records, the winner of this game would advance to the finals. In a back-and-forth affair, with both clubs playing stellar defense limiting the scoring chances, West End scored with six minutes left in the third to win 1-0. Throughout the weekend, the team was supported by great goaltending from Sam Rickard and Holden Breault, and strong defensive efforts from Ty Kemp, Gavin Brooks, Will Myers, and Jack Madden. Providing the scoring punch were the hard-nosed bunch of forwards Aiden Haller-Brady, Carter McKee, Taylor Gilmour,

Ryan Cudd scored from Josh Durnan in a 3-1 loss to PEC. n The Chambers Paving Atom AEs earned one win in three tries, as they shut out the Nepean Vortex 4-0. Austin Catina had a pair, while Elijah Chadwick and Scott Collard had singles. Assists were awarded to Will Peterson (two), Jake Vanberkyl, Jake Reid, and Chadwick. Stittsville edged the Stars 4-2. The locals got goals from Ben Huyck and Catina. Earlier, they were shut out 5-0 by Belleville. n The Bantam Roster Selects saw their first action in the Napanee tournament, but had a winless weekend. Mak Montpetit got the lone goal in a 9-1 loss to Belleville. In their second encounter with Belleville, they fared better, but lost 6-4. Seth Barton scored twice, while Nathan Rodgers and Nick Yeomans had singles. Stittsville shut them out twice, 5-0, and 3-0 to end their round robin play. n The Major Atom Stars hit the road for two games beginning Saturday facing Whitby Blue. The Stars took the lead early in the first with Ethan Martin scoring. They continued with a 1-0 lead midway through the second until the Wildcats were able to score a pair in a minute and a half. The Stars' Zach Slaven responded with the equalizer, but the hosts scored a pair to take a 2 goal lead early in the third. The Majors regrouped in the third with some offen-

sive pressure and Payton Clarke scored with four minutes remaining to cut the lead to one. In the final minute of play and Ryan Aldridge on the bench in favour of an extra attacker, Clarke scored his second of the game to tie it up 4-4. Assisting for the Stars were Ben Albright with two and Slaven, Logan Lalande, Tyler Brady, Reid Lambert and Jakob Dacosta all with singles. Sunday the Stars faced off against Whitby White, and again opened the scoring midway through the second with Lambert finding the net. The hosts fought back and took a 2-1 into the third. The resilient Stars again regrouped and netted two to take a 3-2 lead with seven minutes remaining. Unfortunately the Stars weren't able to hold the lead and gave up the tying goal a minute later. Then, with no time left on the clock, Whitby was awarded the game winner. Also scoring for the Stars were Albright and Slaven with assists going to Lalande, Martin and Clarke. Napanee Crunch n The Napanee Crunch Novice Girls hockey team, which plays its regular season games in the Greater Kingston Atom House League loop, finally got to showcase their talent against teams in their age group at the Central York Panther’s House League Tournament in Newmarket this past weekend. The team’s first action was Friday afternoon against the Oakville Hornets, which saw the Crunch come out with a hard fought 1-0 victory. Harper Ballance got the lone goal, unassisted, and Keyra Herrington earned the shutout with many highlight-reel saves. The girls then faced one of the local Panthers teams early Saturday morning and cruised to an easy 5-0 win. Goal scorers for this game were Molly Dafoe (two), Sophie Fraser (two), and Alexa Tyner, with assists going to Harper Ballance (two), Claire McConnell, Sienna Eberle, and Briseis Hunter. Herrington got her second shutout in as many games with solid goaltending. The girls now new that all they had to do

was win their second game of the day later that afternoon to advance to the semi-finals on Sunday morning. That third game was their toughest of the round robin, which saw them come up against the CYGHA White team. It was back and forth all game, but in the end the Crunch pulled out the win with a score of 3-2. Sophie Fraser led the team with another two goal performance and Stella Sutton netted the third goal to solidify the team as their division winners. Assists in the third game went to Ballance, Alaina Holmes, Hunter, Avery Breault and Sarah Marshall with a pair. This victory would mean another early morning start on Sunday against the Nepean Wildcats, who also won their division with three straight victories. The semi-final became another see-saw affair, with the play going from one end to the other. Unfortunately, the Crunch got behind 3-0 and never recovered despite having the pressure on the opponents for most of the third period. The final score was 3-1 for Nepean which meant the end to the Crunch’s weekend. Molly Dafoe scored Napanee’s only goal with assists going to Chloe Davey and Annika Moore. The coaching staff and parents could not have been any more proud of the girls who gave their best all weekend long. The team will now set their sights on winning the Kingston Tournament at the Christmas break, and then get revenge against the Nepean squad on their home ice in February. n The Atom Crunch travelled to Peterborough to face the Ice Kats Saturday. Off to a slow start the Crunch found themselves trailing by a goal until the middle of the second period when Nikki Weese shot top corner on a rush to tie it up, assists earned by Gracie Hughes and Adrianna Maclean. Shortly after Breanna Roy backhanded it past the goalie, earning assists were Abby Kish and Hughes. Third period scoring by Kish unassisted resulted in a 3-1 win.

MEMORIAMS

MILLEN - In loving memory of Margaret, who passed away November 30, 1990. The years may wipe out many things, But this they’ll wipe out never The memory of those days When we were all together, We think of her in silence, Her name we oft recall, But there’s nothing left to answer, But her picture on the wall, Just when her life was brightest, Just when her hopes were best, God called her from among us To a Home of eternal rest. Love, Eugene and family.

HAROLD SCHARF

November 19, 2013 In loving memory of a dear brother, brother-in-law, and uncle. We can’t have old days back When we were all together But secret tears and loving thoughts, Will be with us forever! Remembered with much love, Brian, Carrie, Chris and Jory

MEMORIAMS

GO LEAFS GO!!!!!! PRUE - In loving memory of my dear mother, Doris, who passed away 3 years ago on November 26, 2011. If I had all the world to give, I’d give it yes and more, To hear her voice, see her smile And greet her at the door, But all I can do, dear mother, Is go and tend your grave And leave behind tokens of love To the best mother God ever made, I’d like to think when life is done, Wherever Heaven may be, She’ll be standing at the door Up there to welcome me. Lovingly remembered and always missed, your daughter Linda, friends, Sue, Terry and Dave.

NAPANEE COUNTRY DEPOT

Developing made-in-Ontario sweet potatoes By Lilian Schaer (AgInnovation Ontario)

Canadian demand for sweet potatoes has sky rocketed, reaching heights that far outstrip Ontario’s small, locally grown supply. Researchers at the Vineland Research and Innovation Centre are working hard to change that by developing new sweet potato varieties specifically suited for Ontario’s climate and crop conditions. About 1,500 acres are currently being grown in southern Ontario – mostly in the Simcoe area of Norfolk County – and most farmers are using a variety called Covington, which was developed in North Carolina. “Sweet potato is a southern crop. We have a short season here, so we need quick-maturing and cold tolerant varieties for Ontario,” explains Valerio Primomo, who is leading Vineland’s sweet potato breeding work. “Sweet potatoes are a growing trend; it is full of beta carotene, a good source of the vitamins B6 and C, fibre, potassium, iron and magnesium.”In the last five years, Canadians’ sweet potato consumption has doubled to 1.5 kg per person per year.

To meet that demand, Canada imports approximately $42 million of the anti-oxidant rich tuber from the United States every year. Three farmers in Norfolk County and one in Nova Scotia are taking part in the preliminary variety trials this year. “We’ve had a lot of interest from growers so far, and we’re also looking at other areas in Canada, like British Columbia for example, where the growing conditions are similar to Simcoe. There is also interest in Quebec, but their climate is cooler than ours in southern Ontario,” he says. Sweet potato processors like Pride Pak and french fry maker McCain’s are also awaiting the outcome of Primomo’s work to allow them to supply products made from Canadian-sourced sweet potatoes to their customers. Vineland’s sweet potato breeding program is supported by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada through its AgriInnovation Program (AIP) and by the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs’ New Directions Research Program. AIP is part of Growing Forward 2, a federal-provincial-territorial initiative.

ven though our Men’s Open was changed to a one-day open bonspiel, 16 teams of curlers had great fun, thanks to convenor Allan Wrigglesworth and his committee of James Head and Al Thompson.

ing goodies by Don and Brenda Kerr, followed by a delicious lunch by Linda Blake, Jane Wittish and Sheila Pennell and ending with a hearty supper by Moira Sickling, Lana Latimer, Cindy Woodcock, Jane Pearson, Sue Weir, Janine Murray, Debbie Currier and Ted Kennedy. The scrumptious pies were compliments of Michele Penner, Liz Griffiths, Sherry Pringle, Jo Sutton, Pam Jorden, Joelle Dickson and Lana Jaeger. The second place team, by two points, Don Currier Kirk Donald, Jim Stapley and Rome

Dorval thanked the bar staff of Doug Pennell, Blaine Williams, Scott Busby and Tom Ayling for keeping their glasses topped up all day. The third place team of Robert and Jane Hough, Don and Brenda Kerr thanked Don Currier and Jim Stapley for the terrific ice. Wrigglesworth ended the announcements by thanking his committee and asking for a round of applause to the sponsors who make this event the success it is each and every season. Thank you Shoeless

The club also donated place mats to the L&A Senior Outreach Service’s Meals on Wheels program. CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 He highlighted James Timlin, general manager of community and corporate services, and Peter Dafoe, general manager of infrastructure services, for their work. He said with such strong, capable and willing staff, he knows Greater Napanee is in good hands. Finally, he thanked Gervais, who he has come to know both through working as a councillor, and during his time on the fire department. “Terry Gervais, since you’ve come on as fire chief, what a change. You’ve had such an impact in reducing tensions in that fire hall and making it possible for volunteers and full-time staff to work together,” Pierson said. Councillor Grant took his turn in thanking council, staff and all those who supported him.

“This is my last meeting and I just want to say, I want to thank the staff, the present and the past, and I want to thank council. It’s been enjoyable working with you all,” said Grant. “I’m really proud to see how the town has progressed in the past 11 years. The council, the staff, the (Business Improvement Area), and the (Napanee & District) Chamber (of Commerce) has done a wonderful job to move this community ahead. I am very proud to be from Napanee and to have served on this council,” Grant added. Greater Napanee’s inaugural council meeting is scheduled for Dec. 2 at 1 p.m. At this meeting, Max Kaiser will be sworn in as Ward 2 councillor, replacing Shane Grant; and Carol Harvey will be sworn in as Ward 4 councillor, replacing Bill Pierson. The first council meeting for the new council is scheduled for Dec. 16.

HOMEFINDER / RE9

Create an energy-efficient home for the holidays MCC - ‘Tis the season to be festive, and that usually means stringing up hundreds of twinkling lights to create a welcoming glow on dark winter nights. Some people view the holiday season as their chance to go all out with regard to decorating their homes with an abundance of lights, inflatable lawn ornaments and maybe even some mechanical figures. While these decorations certainly may be symbols of the season, it’s easy to forget just how much energy and resources they consume. A typical strand of lights uses around 300 watts of electricity. Multiply those figures by the dozens of strings of lights people use and it’s easy to see how quickly energy usage can add up. In addition to lights, lit candles, animated dolls, wreaths, trees, and scores of imported ornaments contribute to the energy consumption per household. Even so, environmentally conscious individuals need not skip the holiday décor and entertaining. Fortunately, there are various ways to be energy efficient with holiday décor this season. • Switch to LED lights. LED lights consume

a fraction of the energy traditional incandescent bulbs do. While a standard string of 50 lights consumes 300 watts, LED sets only consume four watts. This not only saves energy, but also considerable amounts of money over the course of the holiday season. • Use fiber-optic decorations. Fiber optic items are lit by one light. The illumination carries through the fiber optic cables to the entire decoration. • Use a power strip and timer. Plug decorations into a power strip (be sure to follow the recommended power load for safety) and hook everything up to a timer so lights are not on when no one can see them. • Check light strands. Always inspect lights for frayed wires and any damage. Frayed lights are less efficient and pose a considerable safety risk. • Enhance decorations. Use mirrors and reflective ornaments to give the appearance of more lights without actually adding more. • Turn off ambient lighting. Christmas tree lights or the lights framing a picture window should be sufficient to light up a room. Keep lamps and overhead lighting off while the

tree is lit to save money and energy. • Lower the thermostat. When entertaining, turn the thermostat down a few degrees. Having extra people in your home will raise the temperature. Similarly, heat generated by the oven and other cooking appliances can warm up a home. Don’t waste energy by keeping the heat turned on high. • Invest in rechargeable batteries. According to Energy Quest, 40 percent of all batteries are purchased during the holiday season. To power those many gifts and devices, use rechargeable batteries which can be used again and again. • Change your cooking practices. Smaller appliances use less energy. Put those toaster ovens, slow cookers and electric fryers to good use. Only use the oven if you are cooking a large meal. • Wait until the dishwasher is full. Pack in the dishes from holiday meals, and only run the dishwasher when it is full. • Reuse items whenever possible. Many items around the house can be put to good use as decorations, holiday servers or gifts. Take inventory of what you have before you go out and purchase new decorations.

Decorative lights can consume a considerable amount of energy. Scale back or invest in LEDs, which are more energy-efficient lights.
