“woodlands walKing”
For the very few of you with good memories, you may recall quite a few years ago, when I wrote about “Garden Boys” and “Garden Gods”. Garden Boys are all the people like myself who do all the gardening scut work like digging and lifting, while the “Garden Gods”, such as the missus, get to decide what plants go where and essentially who prospers and who ends up in the compost pile. So now, that I have decided that our woodlot needs some major pruning, I have become the biggest “Garden God” in our family. I mean the missus is in charge of the fate of maybe a few dozen plants. Hah, ... my best estimate is our woodlot has somewhere in the neighbourhood of 500,000 trees that need their fates decided. With all this responsibility, a walk in the woods has taken on a new dimension. For the missus, a walk in the woods involves putting her head down and following the established wood’s road. While she is quite adept at spotting critter prints in the snow, I personally prefer to look around and see if there is an actual bear, moose or coyote who may be taking an interest in me. But now, I am not only stopping to observe whether critters are about, but I also stop and peer endlessly at trees. “That dying birch should come down, one of those spruce should be thinned, do I eliminate the crooked maple or the fir that are growing together??” With the responsibility for making life or death decisions for half a million residents, I feel compelled to get off the wood’s road and meet as many of them as possible and so side trips are common. So now a simple walk in the woods is never simple. “Have I looked over that knoll, those trees down there seem interesting, etc., etc.” But, I am really having difficulty remembering names. “Are you Mrs Cedar 1542 or are you Mrs Cedar 3647?” At times I find it bothersome that humans should be manipulating Mother Nature. While, there appears to be clear evidence that managing wood lots carefully can improve their productivity and even improve habitat for critters, I still sometimes wonder if man can actually do better. On the other hand, no one seems to think that we should try and live on wild potatoes and carrots. If sowing potatoes and thinning carrots is OK, why not careful management of trees?? Just a few things to think on as I wander about, wondering .. “Where am I??” 800

Peninsula pearls news
We're glad You asked!
The Peninsula Pearls met on February 27th at 12:00noon. Lunch was provided by Group 3 and was enjoyed by all. Our guest speaker was Jamie Matthews who is from the Dementia and Alzheimer Society. These both affect our memory. Some signs of onset of the disease are memory loss, trouble reading words, sleeping patterns change, may wander off, misplacing things. Doing crossword puzzles, jigsaw puzzles and other puzzles help keep the mind active. The meeting opened with the singing of O Canada and the Lord’s Prayer. A donatin was made to the Deacon’s Cupboard in memory of Helen Flewelling. Zumba dancing will start at the Moss Glen Legion on Thursday, April 5th at 10:00am. Everyone is welcome to join in and the cost is $5 a session. The regular meeting of the Peninsula Pearls met on March 12th at the Moss Glen Legion. Our guest was Keith Facey, who played and sang songs for St. Patrick’s Day, Lord of the Dance and Farewell to Nova Scotia, the Pilot Boat song. Our meeting opened as usual with O Canada and the Lord’s Prayer. Lunch was provided by Group 4. Sherry had requests to go out for Chinese food, so the schedule may change a little in the future. The 50/50 was won by Juanita, prizes went to Mert, Dot, Dianne and Bob. Ralph and Joan had been to visit Verna Lee, who is in a nursing home. Meeting closed by Sue. Submitted by N. Dann. 119

Why Prearrange? We provide many prearrangements each year. We assist a variety of ages, backgrounds, faiths, and financial situations. In spite of the diversity among the people who prearrange, there are some common reasons for prearranging. The reason we hear most often, is that they are doing it for their family. Many times the person making prearrangements has had the experience of making funeral arrangements for someone they love and simply put, want to make it easier for everyone else. The second most common reason is that they want the funeral done their way. Some people want their funeral to accurately reflect important things in their life like military service or religious beliefs. Others want it done their way so that no one is left to make all the decisions regarding the funeral. The third most common reason for making prearrangements is to remove the financial consideration from their survivors. They don't want their family to have to deal with it. Prefunding your funeral makes good sense. It makes good financial sense to have an inevitable future expense paid.

HHs grad Class news
Well Grads, your last March Break in high school is officially over – sad, I know! However, there were many people reluctantly roaming the hallways last week who had evidently been kissed by the sun and sleepy-eyed individuals trying to get rid of their jet lag (these individuals fall under the category of “the lucky ones”). Based on these things, I can assume that everyone had a good March Break whether they went away or got some rest and relaxation at home! So what next? Well, you’re about to find out - that is the whole point of this column, after all. The Grad Class Fashion Show will be held tuesday, March 20th (tonight) at 7:00pm in the Hampton High Theatre! The cost of admission is $5. This price is very cheap considering the fact that you will be seeing some of Hampton High’s finest strutting their stuff, and wearing some pretty crazy outfits (crazy is an understatement in this context). Donations for door prizes will be graciously accepted as well as sweets! If you could bring in either of these things, it would be greatly appreciated! If you have not yet purchased Grad Class 2012 clothing, don’t panic! There is still a chance that you could get your hands on one of the great articles of clothing! There are some items left, so if you are interested in making a purchase, see Mrs. Richard ASAP! Well, the year is winding down, boys and girls, and many of us will be heading to university, college, or work. Don’t make the mistake of forgetting to apply for scholarships – it’s easy money! There is a list of scholarships on the school website, hamptonhigh.ca, and be sure to see Mrs. Hovey in Guidance for more information. It’s always a pleasure informing you about upcoming events, important dates, and the activities of the Grad Class of 2012. Make sure to stay on the ball and stay posted to this column; don’t let surprises overwhelm you at this hectic time of the year! Article submitted by Johnny Cullen. 103

Borderline Crazy
Continued from Hampton Herald March 6 issue, page 4 “Flo” remarried much later. Her new husband was Herbert W. Hayes. In 1924 they moved to Portland, Oregon. Earle, her younger son, somehow found her there in 1927. He contacted her when he was 16; for the next eleven years, until her death, they kept in touch. Earle told his mother of his life as a boxer and as a football star. Earle, nicknamed “King Kong” because of his physique and athletic ability, was later able to tell his daughter that his mother attended some of his boxing matches. When she died at the age of 58 years on February 27, 1938, Flora was laid to rest in an unmarked grave in Rose city Cemetery, Portland. Her elder son, Clarence Robert Nobles, who felt he had been abandoned by his mother at the age of eight, did not desire to see her, and he never did. Flora’s only sight of her son was through his movies. By 1921 Harry had sent for Clarence to come to Tucson. Harry was now living with his second partner, Jessie, when his son arrived. In 1924 Earle joined his father and his brother Bob (as Clarence was now called) as well. Changes continued in the Tucson home: in 1926 Harry married Bertha Lee foster (27 years old. Clarence “Bob” moved out and married in 1928. In 1932 a son (Michael Foster Nolan) was born to Harry and Bertha, the same year that Harry’s son Earle graduated from high school. Later Harry and Bertha had a daughter – Marry Nolan (Mary Jean Nolan? Jean Mary Nolan?). From 1919 to 1936 the Nolan family was on the move – a minimum of 10 times. Harry was always getting deeper into debt and the collection agency was on his heels. A move was made to California in 1937. By 1941 Harry and Bertha had separated, and a divorce soon followed. Two weeks short of his 65th birthday Harry Bayard Nobles/ Nolan passed away. The date was November 13, 1948. His son, Earle, had him buried at Woodlawn Cemetery, Santa Monica, California. He was survived by four children – Robert Clarence “Bob” Nolan, Michael Earle Nolan, Michael Foster “Mike” Nolan and Mary Nolan Petty (Jean Nolan Petty Krygelski in one source). Harry’s dramatic life was at an end but for his son, Robert Clarence “Bob” Nolan, the drama was just beginning. 127

DON'T FORGET THE KITCHEN The kitchen is not immune to clutter, and it's especially easy for items to overstay their welcome in the refrigerator and the kitchen cabinets. Look for old takeout containers in the refrigerator that have managed to stick around, and throw these out as well as any items that have passed their expiration dates. While items in the kitchen cabinets might not have an expiration date, it helps to remove them from the pantry and then dust and wipe down the shelves. When doing so, discard any items that no longer seem appetizing.

BEAT THE RUGS Area rugs have no doubt collected dirt and dust over the last several months. Though vacuuming these area rugs might be enough during the year, take advantage of the pleasant weather and take the rugs outside to beat them and rid them of dust and any other particles the vacuum might have missed over the last few months.
TAKE SOME INVENTORY Many people have no problem buying new clothes, but they do find it hard to get rid of older items. Part of spring cleaning is tossing old items you no longer use, and that includes clothing. Clothing can take up a significant amount of space, so take some inventory on your wardrobe and decide which items you want to keep and which ones you can afford to discard or even donate. Spring cleaning is something all homeowners must do to keep their homes healthy and clean. Spring cleaning is annual event at many households, and a few simple strategies can make it go much more smoothly.

roof a thorough end-of-winter examination, consider the following tips for recognizing roof damage. Look on the ground surrounding the home. While it might seem odd to look down to see if a roof has been damaged, some of the most telltale signs of roof damage could be right in the yard, nearby bushes or driveway. Get on the ladder and get up on the roof. The best way to detect any roof damage is to go up on the roof. Certain roof damage requires careful inspection, as not all roof damage announces its presence via a leaky ceiling or blown off shingle. Roof damage from hail, for instance, leaves marks or dents on the shingles and can even crack the shingles' tabs.
Recognizing Roof Damage The spring season is a time for many things, from rediscovering the great outdoors to clearing the clutter leftover from another long winter.
Inspect the roof's supporting cast. Homeowners living in regions where heavy snowfall is common should also look at the support beams in their attics. Roofs tend to take a beating in regions with heavy snowfall, as the weight of all that snow can take its toll over time. That toll can extend to support beams in the attic, resulting in sagging supports or cracks.
For many homeowners, that spring cleaning also means a careful examination of a home's exterior. Winter can prove especially harsh on a home's exterior, in particular the roof. While stains on the ceiling or obvious leaks are easy ways to detect roof damage, many times problems with a roof are not so obvious. For homeowners hoping to give their

It is with great sadness that we report the peaceful death of Marigold “Mollie” Elisabeth Fry (Bolton) at the Dr. V.A. Snow Centre in Hampton on March 1st. Born at Pembury, Kent in England in 1928, from an early age she showed a profound love for and interest in children. On graduation from High School she entered the Froebel Institute in Roehampton, London to be trained as a kindergarten teacher. She taught for a few years until her marriage to George Fry in 1953. The birth of children of her own created a lull in her career. In 1963 the Frys immigrated to Canada and settled in Hampton, New Brunswick. Within a few months Mollie had opened a much needed kindergarten in the summer kitchen of the house they purchased. The Hampton Kindergarten had several homes but was finally established, at Principal John Hooper’s request, in the new Primary School and became an unofficial part of the school system. In 1967 George moved to a position in Fredericton and Mollie went to work in the experimental kindergarten at the University of New Brunswick. It was from there she was appointed by Premier McKenna, with Miriam Leavitt, to establish a kindergarten system for the Province. After retirement in 1993 the Fry’s returned to the Hampton area. Her grieving family are her husband George, her sons Jeremy (Donna), Bloomfield, NB and Nicholas (Susan), Westbank, BC and grandchildren Cassandra, Mitchell, James and Allison. Mollie will be remembered by her friends and students as a most kindly and honourable woman who deeply loved and cared for the well being of children, who enjoyed telling stories, creating gardens of flowers and birds, and houseboating on the St. John River. The world has lost a tremendously compassionate and intelligent lady with an ever ready wit. Gifts in her memory in lieu of flowers would be appropriate either to CARE Canada or Amnesty International. There will be a celebration of her life at a later date. The arrangements have been entrusted to Reid’s Funeral Home, Hampton. Online memorials and condolences can be made at: reidsfh.com.

May the winds of love blow softly On a quiet and peaceful spot, Where the one I love lies sleeping, But will never be forgot. Six years ago you left me, And still I often cry, Love always, My thoughts of you are special, Wife Dolly & family. My love will never die. Hampton Herald - March 20, 2012

CBDC Kings and Junior Achievement are teaming up in the Kings County and surrounding rural areas to promote entrepreneurship to our youth! If you are unfamiliar with Junior Achievement, it is the largest non-profit organization dedicated to inspiring and preparing youth to succeed in a global economy. JA offers business education programs in the areas of work readiness, entrepreneurship and financial literacy, delivered at no cost to elementary, middle and high schools. Our unique programs allow students to experience and understand business, preparing them for leadership. They enable young people to gain financial responsibility, make confident decisions and become innovators. This is where we need your help! We are calling upon business professionals in our area to volunteer to help promote entrepreneurship. What this would entail would be meeting with the JA Regional Director and learning about what it is JA does and how you would deliver the info to the students. You then would visit a school and explain the program while drawing from your own personal business experiences and making the situations real for the kids. Friday, April 13th - Belleisle Elementary School, five volunteers needed (one per class) to deliver the “Our Community” program to grades 3-5. The session is about two hours, and it’s a really fun way for the kids to get thinking about what “needs” are and how the businesses in their community help to satisfy those needs. Keep in mind, this information is for kids and is tailored for their age groups. So if you are concerned about the topics or not being an expert, everything is addressed prior to meeting the children. In total, you would likely be looking at between three and four hours of volunteer time (training and presenting). Check out the Junior Achievement website if you would like information on the organization and what else they do - newbrunswick.jacan.org. 409

July 29, 1950 -March 22, 2011 You are missed everyday, always, in so many ways. You are remembered each day, in Logan's love for tractors, Emma's smile and Parker's quiet voice. You were a caring husband, father and grandfather. The space you left can never be filled. You were one of a kind.
Love, Always, Jane
HMS News
By Claire McCormick Imagine this: you call the local middle school during a busy lunch break. When your phone call is answered, you hear, “Hi. Hampton Middle School. Student secretary.” It’s not uncommon for this to happen at HMS. In fact, it happens almost every day. This month my article is about the student secretary program at, you guessed it, HMS. Every school day, during the lunch break, two students (usually girls) come to the office and take over the secretary’s duties, for the hour-long break. That means they make announcements, take phone calls, write down phone messages and notes, and help teachers and staff. That’s the interesting, and rewarding, part about doing student secretary; you get to help people and see what a real job feels like. You may think this job must be boring and nerdy, but, to tell you the truth, it’s really not. There is an abundance of phone calls with so many people on the other line needing something, you almost never run out. Announcement making is one of the best things to do. You get to talk with teachers and make schoolwide announcements. So you see, you are almost never bored, because you are always doing at least one thing. Student secretary is, above all, not nerdy. Actually if you do this, it is a great thing to put on resumes and applications for schools and jobs. For people who help the secretary and do this, it is just another great bonus for them. To wrap up, student secretary is a great, amazing and rewarding thing to do for your secretary! Claire McCormick is a Grade 8 student at HMS. 114

HaMPton-Piggs PeaK news
I often write about the Hampton-Piggs Peak Partnership Starfish program and Hampton’s support that allows young people in Piggs Peak to attend school. There’s no question this is our biggest undertaking but I thought I would talk a little bit about some of the other less significant, but no less important, areas where we help in Piggs Peak. Over the course of a year we spend about $5,000 to cover various critical needs of numerous people who need our help. We know that, living here on the other side of the world, we are in a poor position to determine the most crucial needs. So we entrust this evaluation to our most dependable advisors in Piggs Peak – Karen Mandy and John Lovett. Although they are fully accountable for the funds, they have the discretion to spend them where they best see fit. We are thereby able to tactically allocate funds to where we believe they will do the greatest good. As an example, Karen and John will often use the money to buy shoes or another piece of a uniform required for a student to attend school. It is used to buy food and water for hungry people or medicine for someone who falls ill. From time to time the funds are used to top up school fees where a non-sponsored student runs into a shortfall. And, sadly, we have helped pay for a funeral or two. When Lisa and I were in Piggs Peak in October we visited the homestead of a student the Partnership is supporting. The mother was ill and could not work; there was no food; and the six children were sleeping on the floor of a one-room hut. With the funding of supporters in Hampton we were able to arrange medical attention for the mother and bought some food for the family. After we returned to Canada, Karen also bought clothing, shoes, cooking pots, kettle, cups, bowls and a mattress for the family. Although these expenditures are small relative to our overall funding, these donations are making a difference…. sometimes in ways we don’t expect. Karen says: “I was so humbled last week when I stopped by as they had prepared three mealie breads for me to take and bake. Wow, that was awesome - they have nothing and what little they have they wanted to bless us with how amazing is that??” Amazing indeed. It is not the first time that word has been used to describe the results of Hampton’s involvement in Piggs Peak. If you would like to be part of something amazing, please make a donation through our website www.hamptonpiggspeak.ca or call me, Mark Bettle, at 832-0003. 110

Easter Facts Easter is the oldest and the most important Christian Festival, the celebration of the death and coming to life again of Jesus Christ. For Christians, the dawn of Easter Sunday with its message of new life is the high point of the Christian year. Pagan traditions give us the English word “Easter” which comes from the word “Eostre”. The AngloSaxon word for April was “Eostre-monath” (the month of openings). However, it should be remembered that Christians celebrated the resurrection of Christ long before the word “Easter” was used, and the word they used for the celebration was “Pascha”, which is derived from and linked to the Jewish festival of Passover. According to Bede, the English monastic historian, the English word Easter comes from the Anglo-Saxon name for the month of April, which was known as “Eostremonath” in the AngloSaxon tongue and since Pascha was most often celebrated in Eostremonath, the English Christians began calling it “Easter”. Bede also notes that the month was named after the Anglo-Saxon goddess Esostre.
Rituals related to the goddess Eostre focus on new beginnings, symbolized by the Easter egg, and fertility, which is symbolized by the hare (or Easter bunny). Easter is called a moveable feast because the date of Easter changes every year. Easter Sunday can fall on any date from March 22 to April 25. The reason for this variation in the date of Easter is based on the lunar calendar (moon) rather than our more wellknown solar one. Easter always falls on the first Sunday following the full Moon (the Paschal Full Moon) after March 21. If the Full Moon falls on a Sunday then Easter is the next Sunday.

MUSINGS By Debbie Hickey
saVe your Pennies . . .
Cause you can’t do much else with them! Time was a penny could actually buy you something. Today their only real value is in making change. In fact, the Royal Canadian Mint spends millions every year making new pennies, because a large percentage of the old ones go out of circulation. They get tossed in jars or simply tossed out and must then be replaced at great cost, since the raw material used to make a penny is worth more than the penny itself. I can’t remember the last time I actually paid for something using any pennies. Now, Michael would no doubt argue that is just my poor memory, but that is another story. To be clear, I rarely use cash at all in these days of debit cards, but when I do use cash it never includes pennies. I complain about the weight of my purse when coin starts to build up and toss the offending pennies in the change jar. A little research (love the Internet!) reminded me that in 2010, a Senate committee recommended that the federal government remove the penny from circulation and that guidelines be established for rounding off purchase prices for cash-only transactions. This is already done in many countries, including New Zealand and Australia. What are we waiting for? And if you think you want to cart around all that weight to go shopping, consider the specifications of the Currency Act before you step up to the cash. Did you know it is illegal in Canada to pay for a 26 cent item in all pennies. The limit is 25 cents. If you are paying for your item in nickels, then its illegal to pay for it in nickels if its over $5. It’s also illegal to pay for something over $10 dollars in all dimes or quarters or something over $25 in loonies. But I did come across this story on the value of a penny: “Electricity can be dangerous. My nephew tried to stick a penny into a plug. Whoever said a penny doesn’t go far didn’t see him shoot across that floor. I told him he was grounded.” ~ Tim Allen. 801
