Five historic homes on display in Merrickville House and Garden Tour July 13 By ASHLEY KULP akulp@perfprint.ca

EMC Events – Take a peek inside some of Merrickville’s most historic homes and lush gardens Saturday, July 13 when the eighth annual Merrickville House and Garden Tour returns. The tour, once again being presented by Holy Trinity Anglican Church, runs from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and this year visitors will be invited into five of the village’s lovely homes. “The lineup this year is unbelievable,” remarked tour organizer Linda Nash. “I cannot believe how lucky I was this year.” According to Nash, all five of the homes on the tour are heritage and accompanying each are “magnificent gardens.” “The whole tour is like a step back in time,” she noted. Due to the fact that each home also has a garden to explore, Nash indicated she didn’t seek out separate gardens. “It’s going to take people all day to see these houses. They’re so interesting,” she commented. Included in that list is Merrickville’s historic Manor House at 905 St. Lawrence St. Owned by David Luxton and Laura Brown, this regal stone home’s claim to fame is that it was owned by the Mirick family, founders of Merrickville, in 1844 and is known as the Harry McLean House by locals. “Current owners David, is the chairman of the Tulip Festival in Ottawa and Laura is a sculptor and artist,” Nash explained. The three-storey structure was completely renovated in 2012. “They left no stone unturned for redoing this house,” she said. “It’s been totally revamped from the first to the third floor.” An example of Georgian architecture, one of the home’s most unique features is winding staircase that leads to a ‘Romeo and Juliet’ style gallery at the top. It is decorated extage Drive) looks out on the banks clusively in fine art and antiques. “I’m so excited (to have this on of the Rideau River and was built by the tour),” Nash stated. “You could John Chester in 1824.

The eighth annual Merrickville House and Garden Tour is set to unfold Saturday, July 13. This year, five heritage homes and their gardens are on the schedule, including historic Manor House, above. Located at 905 St. Lawrence St., this home was owned by the Mirick family, the founders of Merrickville. Another home to be featured on the tour is the Molloy home, a two-storey Victorian abode at 105 Water St.

view of the river,” Nash said. “It’s another great example of late Georgian buildings in Ontario.” The tour will also take visitors to 105 Lewis St., the Jane Tynsdale House, which was constructed in 1861. It is a two-storey limestone house but was built to look like a storey and a half. “The reason for that is that taxes were higher on a two-storey back then,” Nash stated. “People hesitated at wanting to pay higher taxes, so they made homes like that.” The Tynsdale home has also been lovingly restored and boasts original floors. The windows and roof trim reflect the time period in which it was built. Mirick Home, owned by Joelle Schmid and Nick Previsich is an example of Edwardian architecture, with red and yellow brick detailing. “It’s been renovated with a combination of modern and classic interior design with modern and contemporary pieces mixed with fabulous antiques,” Nash commented. The wraparound veranda and expansive garden are other features. “My jaw dropped when I walked into this house. I love it,” she said. The final home included in the tour is the Molloy Home (105 Water St.), owned by Shirley and Timothy Molloy. This two-storey Victorian home was constructed in 1890 and bears wide porches and gingerbread trim indicative of the time period. It was featured on the tour four years ago and is back by popular demand. “There are only a few houses in Ontario like this and it is split in the middle so you can enter the home from both sides of the veranda,” Nash remarked. “It has two stairways, one at the front and one at the back.” Packed with early Canadian and Victorian antiques, Nash said the property has won several awards for its gardens as well.

SAFETY TIPS Oil Lamps: Oil lamps or lanterns provide excellent light but can be a fire hazard if placed too close to combustibles. Keep oil lamps away from combustibles and out of the wind. Make sure they are kept in a secure place where they cannot be knocked over. Refill the lamps outdoors or away from combustibles and other people.

EMC Events – Potty Rocking in the Park, an outdoor family music festival, was held in Carleton Place’s Riverside Park on June 22.

COMMENTARY Be alert on roads, waterways this Canada Day

EMC Editorial – It’s been heralded as the official start to summer, but don’t cloud your summer before it begins with poor driving habits. The Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) recently announced they will be cracking down on aggressive driving this Canada Day long weekend on roads, trails and waterways across the province. So if you are someone who is impatient or angry while driving or who tends to display colourful vocabulary while behind the wheel, listen up. Photo by Aggressive driving doesn’t just mean speeding, which KATHY BOTHAM could be considered one of the most common faults among drivers, but also following vehicles too closely, making improper lane changes, weaving in and out of lanes and having a general disregard for the rules of the road and waterways, will be targeted. Don’t think if you aren’t an aggressive driver that the OPP won’t be on the lookout for other poor driving habits. They will also be watching for impaired and distracted driving seatbelts, as well as ensuring you have personal flotation devices on board when boating. the dump or a garbage can. According to the OPP, the public awareness campaigns I find this very disheartening and sad to see we are so fortunate to live in such a lovely scenic area that is fast becoming an eye- they have been undertaking are making a difference. At this time last year, there were 173 fatalities on roads, wasore littered with garbage. Please make an effort to take your garbage with you, dispose terways and trails, while that number is down to 110 this of it properly and leave our beautiful rural roads the way I enjoy year. Perhaps that shows that people are taking the law and their own lives seriously. seeing them, litter free. Thank you. We all have some bad driving habits we’d like to get Fran Bryerton rid of and being forced to make a change might not be a Almonte bad thing.

LE T TER TO THE EDITOR

Stop dumping trash on our rural roads DEAR EDITOR: I have noticed recently that our beautiful rural roads have become dumping grounds for almost any type of trash. I have seen mattresses, appliances, old tires, tons of discarded fast food wrappers, plastic bottles, cans, coffee cups and pretty much anything you can imagine just left or tossed on the side of the road. It seems that people just pull over, have lunch and then just drive away leaving all of their garbage behind. The litterbugs responsible for tossing trash know who you are and maybe it is time to dispose of these items at a proper designated area such as

EMC Events - Healthy Living Festival was a huge hit for the first year. These are just some of the happenings around town on June 22. Clockwise from the top left, what started out as more than 80 participants in the Cardio Move-a-Thon dwindled down to this group of participants who were able to stick it out for the full two-hour period; Jonathan Lockhart, a busker from The Cow Guys, was a big hit at the festival. Lockhart not only juggled fire (shown here) but also performed balancing feats and rode a teeny tiny bicycle to engage the crowds; Cardio Fit 4 Life was recognized by Heart & Stroke as the team that raised the most funds, more than $2,000 of the $5,000 raised by the event. Here, Cardio Fit 4 Life owner, Caroline Foster (back right), poses with a group of her team members.

Looking Back 100 YEARS AGO - JUNE 24, 1913

The soldier boys came home on Friday and before disbanding marched downtown led by the regimental band and the Smiths Falls band. They looked well after their stay in camp and made quite an imposing parade. The cadet company, in connection with the Collegiate Institute, will parade downtown Friday evening at 7.15 o’clock. The company is 70 strong and handsome new uniforms have just been procured for them. The annual lawn social given by the St. Francis de Sales church on Thursday and Friday evenings of last week was the most successful one ever held. The grounds about the church were nicely decorated and brilliantly illuminated and all the enterprises to be found as such places were going full blast. 50 YEARS AGO - June 27, 1963 Work at the new federal building in Smiths Falls resumed on Tuesday morning following an eight-day shut-down caused by a carpenter’s strike. Although the dispute is not settled as yet, men went back on the job following a verbal agreement made during a court hearing held in Ottawa on Monday.

Remember When

An estimated 1,500 spectators filled the grandstand at Memorial Community Centre to enjoy some of the finest band music heard here in some time and to watch an outstanding display of precision drill. The occasion was the second annual Musical Revue, sponsored by the OYB Lampliters Drum Corps.

We take another trip back to 1943 this week and a photo of a well bundled-up little boy in front of C.S.

A feminist’s recipe for democracy

Many hundred of camera fans and railroad buffs stormed the CPR station on Sunday afternoon to examine at close range two highly interesting locomotives. One was a famed relic of the past and the other was one of the newest engines on the line. Causing the greatest attention was the huge steam engine that pulled the Royal Train across Canada and back in 1939.

25 YEARS AGO - June 29, 1988 The town will clean up garbage at the former Justus property and bill the owner, Mayor Laurence Lee said Monday. Mayor Lee said he had received a letter Monday morning from Bargain Mart owner Brain Martineau complaining about trash accumulating and rowdiness at the Beckwith Street property. With the 1988 Settlers Days celebration just two days away, event chairman Mark Beveridge said the schedule is set and things are looking good for this year’s event to be one of the best ever. The three day event officially gets underway at 1:30 p.m. just before the Canada Day concert on the Smiths Falls District Collegiate football field. 10 YEARS AGO - June 25, 2003 It was another record relay in Lombardy. The fourth annual Relay for Life — a non-competitive 12-hour team fund-raiser organized by the Lanark, Leeds and Grenville Unit of the Canadian Cancer Society (CCS) — set new marks in terms of participation and dollars. Held overnight Friday/ Saturday, June 20 and 21 at the Lombardy Agricultural Fairgrounds, the Relay attracted more than 1,300 participants on 142 teams who collected in excess of $315,000.

ASHTON, Arthur – In loving memory of my husband who passed away June 29, 2011. You knew I would miss you and tried so hard to stay, But the hardest thing I ever had to do is to be here alone without you day after day. I find myself just sitting and I look over at your chair, And I almost think I can really see you still sitting there. Life for you was getting hard and I know you had to go, As many years of failing health was really taking its toll. Please God put your arms around him and tell him how much I care, And how I look so forward to being with him up there. So for now, I carry on, as our family needs me, and I know they miss you too, But one by one someday we will all be together with you. To be absent from the body, is to be present with the Lord. Miss you Love You Forever, Your Wife, Helen Beaupre

“WE REMEMBER”

JUNE - JULY

Just inside the main entrance of the C.R. Gamble Funeral Home is a book of remembrance. Each day we turn a page in the book. The names of those we have served are inscribed on that date along with the year in which they passed away. It is our way of honouring and remembering a life that was lived. It is

also our way of saying “thank you” to the many families who have shown conﬁdence in us since we came to Almonte in 1973. Some families are unable to visit this book on the anniversary of the death of those they love. For this reason we are proud to publish these names weekly as our way of saying…“We Remember”.

JUBY, Dale – In precious memory of my darling husband Dale who walked through Heaven’s Gate June 24th, 2012. The moment that you died, My heart split in two, The one side filled with memories, The other died with you. I often lay awake at night, When the world is fast asleep, And take a walk down memory lane, With tears upon my cheeks. Remembering you is easy, I do it every day, But missing you is a heartache that never goes away. I hold you tightly within my heart, and there you will remain, Life has gone on without you, but it never will be the same. Sometimes I think I’m dreaming I can’t believe it’s true If I could have a lifetime wish A dream that would come true I would pray with all my heart For yesterday and you Until we meet again, Forever and always, your loving wife and friend, Diane

WILLIAMS, Michael - January 14, 1980-June 27, 2003. It’s been 10 years since you’ve been gone You were only 23 when you were taken away from me. You still had so much life to live So many smiles and love to give. We still hear your voice See your smiling face, When we look around, You’re every place- especially in our hearts and minds. We love you Michael. Until we meet again, Always remembered and loved. Mom, Phil, Adam and Melissa

GUTKNECHT, Eric Leslie William June 25, 2010 of Kemptville. We thought of you with love today, but that is nothing new. We thought about you yesterday, and the day before that, too. We think of you in silence, we often say your name, But all we have are memories and your picture in a frame. Your memory is our keepsake, with which we’ll never part. God has you in His keeping, we have you in our heart. We shed tears for what might have been, a million times we’ve cried. If love alone could have saved you, you never would have died. In life we loved you dearly, in death we love you still, In our heart you hold a place, no one could ever fill. It broke our heart to lose you, but you didn’t go alone, For part of us went with you, the day God took you Home. Mom and Dad Visit www.ericgutknechtbursary.ca for more information on the Eric Gutknecht Memorial Bursary.

We miss him here so very much, His presence oft seems nigh, But we all hope in Heaven to meet Where no one says goodbye. Sadly missed by your family

WATT, David, 19572008 – Today seems like such a normal day To those who do not know. To me it has been five long years, Since I had to let you go.

Life together was gone in a wink, Life isn’t as long as we would like to think. To those people whom so many times have cried, Thank you for understanding That a part of me died.

Pipe bands bring back memories

DEAR EDITOR: “Notes from the geriatric department.” Today’s (Saturday’s) pipe band concert in Lower Reach Park brought back memories. In the 1930s, I was a child growing up in Montreal. My father was Regimental Sergeant Major of the Black Watch reserve. Each Christmas we went to the armory on Bleury Street for a party. The pipe band would parade along all the rows of tables. It was wonderful. Sadly dad went active in September 1939 and I saw him again in 1945. My wife was a girl growing up on Malta during WWII. Regularly pipe bands would parade through the streets of Valetta and Floriana. Malta, during the war, was an English colony and an important submarine base. It is credited with sinking German supply ships, ultimately driving Rommel out of North Africa. Kirk Everett

These products do not break down in the sewer system and can cause plugs in sewer pipes and pumps, resulting in sewer backups, costly cleanups and sewage plant equipment replacement which can result in rate increases.

MVFN celebrates 25 years encouraging love, knowledge of nature EMC News – The Mississippi Valley Field Naturalists (MVFN) held their annual general meeting (AGM) at the Almonte Civitan Club on May 16 followed by a very successful Spring Gathering event. The AGM was conducted by Ken Allison, president of MVFN, with attendance by the board and club members. Ken provided the membership with an overview of the organizations activities and finances over the last year. This is the club’s 25th year as an organization and during that time it has been very active promoting the understanding and awareness of the natural world in our community, with its popular natural history lectures series, canoe, hiking and birding outings, environmental programs for children and youth, and strong support for local conservation issues. The treasurer, Robert McCook presented the finances which show a well managed club which can continue to be very active. Ken introduced each of the board members for the coming year, and of special note is that Cliff Bennett, one of the founding members has once again been elected to the board where he will serve as vice-president for 201314. Cliff has been very actively involved with MVFN from it first days and will ensure it continues to be a vibrant and relevant organization. The AGM was followed by the wellattended and exciting Spring Gathering event. Starting with the reception, old friends and acquaintances shared drinks and chatted; many visited the Young Naturalists exhibit, the Reduce Plastic Bag campaign table and made bids on the silent auction items. The Almonte Civitan Club did an excellent job of providing top notch service and a very tasty meal. A special thanks goes out to all the volunteers, especially Rosemary McGinnis, this year’s event co-ordinator for MVFN. The master of ceremonies, Iain Wilkes, MVFN’s new publicity chair and well-known leader of the Carleton Place

Christmas Bird Count, enthusiastically guided the group through the evening culminating in a talk by Éric HébertDaly, executive director of the Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society. Éric provided a passionate and insightful look at how conservation work was done traditionally such as through protected area campaigns, local land trusts, and renaturalization projects, and he explored how we might be more efficient and successful in the years to come through a shift towards a focus on ecological integrity, and methods such as land-use planning, network (versus islands) planning, multilateralism, and First Nations involvement to name a few. Eric fielded many interesting questions after his presentation, reflecting that our community is very engaged when it comes to the environment and conservation. It was a very successful and enjoyable evening, and everyone is reminded to put May 15 on their calendars for next year’s gathering. This summer, ongoing MVFN activities include the canoe/kayak program and annual summer walk, and the clubs’ monthly natural history lectures resume with a new series in September. Please see mvfn.ca for details of these upcoming activities and for membership information. Iain Wilkes is the publicity chair for the Mississippi Valley Field Naturalists.

EMC Entertainment – Calabogie Peaks Resort will be buzzing this weekend with top Canadian country music stars at the inaugural Class Axe Guitars Calabogie Country Music Festival. Dallas Smith, Kira Isabella, and Jordan McIntosh are just a few of the exciting acts to hit the stage during the three-day event. The festival was conceived by the same team that organizes the wildly popular Calabogie Blues & Ribfest, which is heading into its third year. The Calabogie Country Music Festival will deliver top country music, on-site camping, beer gardens, food vendors, chairlift rides, a kids’ zone and more. Hailing from nearby Carleton Place, singer Jordan McIntosh is the latest sensation on the country music scene. He will headline the Friday night show at the festival, with well-known singer Leah Daniels as the opener. McIntosh, who has acquired a large fan base already, is sure to deliver a performance that will showcase that show-stopping talent. Dallas Smith is set to headline Saturday evening’s events. Numerous country bands, including Autumn Hill, Whitney Rose, The Working Class & Ryan Cook, will be taking the stage, beginning at noon leading up to the night’s big event, a performance by Canadian country music star, Smith. He delivers an outstanding show, which is a must-see for any country music fan. Smith spent the last ten years fronting the popular band Default, before stepping into a solo career in 2011. He released his solo debut country album, Jumped Right In, back in May 2012 and its first single, ‘Somebody Somewhere’, immediately soared up the Canadian Hot 100 charts. Sunday’s wrap up to the festival includes performances by Tim Chaisson, the ever-popular country band Silver Creek, Kerosene Creek, and local favourites, Ambush. Closing out the festival will be the exciting Canadian Country Music Award winner Kira Isabella. In 2012, Isabella won the Canadian Country Music Association’s Rising Star Award. Her debut CD quickly garnered national attention and she became one to watch in the Canadian country music scene. The festival grounds will open at 2 p.m. on Friday, June 28 with onsite camping. Music performances will commence at 7 p.m. More information and tickets can be found at www.calabogiecountry. com.

Plan now to pay yourself for all retirement years Manage Your Money

Retirement is coming at you faster than you expected – but that’s okay because you expect those years to be fulfilling, brimming with new experiences and activities. And you will enjoy the retirement lifestyle you’ve dreamed about if you plan now to be sure you’ll have the financial resources you’ll need for all your retirement years. And that could be for a lot of years. According to Statistics Canada*, life expectancy for seniors has been on an upward trend over the last 15 years. The foundation of your retirement plan is your retirement income – so you need to know where it will come from and how much it will be. Check these sources: • The federal government offers: o the Canada Pension Plan/ Québec Pension Plan (CPP/QPP) that provides about 25% of your average annual earnings during your working life, up to certain limits. They are indexed annually for inflation and are taxable. o Old Age Security (OAS) benefits usually begin between age 65 and age 67. Benefits are taxable, indexed for inflation, and ‘clawed back’ in increasing amounts as your individual net income climbs above a

tax-reduction strategies like income-splitting, sharing CPP/QPP benefits with your partner, limiting fully taxable RRIF withdrawals, allocating assets effectively, using a Tax-Free Savings Account, and taking advantage of the tax-sheltering benefits of your RRSP by making your maximum contribution up to the end of the year you turn 71. You can build a retirement income that fits your lifestyle dreams and will last for all your retirement years when you have the right plan – and that should start with seeking advice and counsel from a professional advisor who has the expertise to keep you on the right financial track for your lifetime. *The Daily, Thursday, May 31, 2012 This column, written and published by Investors Group Financial Services Inc.

To be sure your retirement income will last a lifetime: • Know the retirement lifestyle you want. • Estimate your retirement spending for essentials that aren’t easily reduced and discretionary expenses that you can control. • Assess your investment strategies. Consider a conservative strategy for essential expenses and a more growth-oriented strategy for investments to support your discretionary spending. • Manage your withdrawals from retirement savings. Establish a withdrawal rate that matches the size of, and expected return on, your retirement savings over the number of years you plan to make withdrawals. • Tax plan efficiently. Consider
