Couple’s 50th anniversary inspires fundraising CD

RECORD NEWS

EMC News - For 50 years Jack and Phyllis Code of Montague Township have celebrated their love by giving to others. So it made perfect sense to do this once more when their son produced a song in celebration of their golden anniversary. On Sept. 15 their son and musician Chris performed his anniversary song ‘50 Years Ago’ at their anniversary party “and his mother cried,” remarked Phyllis. The positive emotional gift the song gave to Chris’ parents wasn’t enough for this local couple, so they decided to make copies of the country song and sell them to benefit an organization helping widows and the aged earn income in Cuentepec, Mexico. “In Mexico when you are a widow you have no income,” explained Jack. The non-profit organization has an office location and sewing machines where they welcome widows to come in and make products they can then sell for money. Phyllis explains often grandparents are left to raise grandchildren due to unfortunate circumstances, but are still not given any monetary support. The family became aware of this need when a member of their church (Katie Rogers) visited Mexico and realized the desperate need that existed. Since then the church has held monthly breakfasts and other fundraisers to support the organization in Mexico. The Codes are pleased their anniversary gift from their son will be able to support Mexican widows in need. “It’s something we’ll always treasure and think of how it will benefit others,” Phyllis said. The track is available on CD for $4 or as a MP3 for $2 at the following locations: Pete’s Computers (Victoria Ave), Salvation Army Thrift Store (Chambers Street) and Dawn’s Closet (Davidson’s Courtyard). The song’s theme speaks to the Codes’ dedication to helping their community and the positive impact that value has had on their children and grandchildren. For the last 27 years Phyllis has volunteered to organize a visually impaired support group. The inspiration for this endeavour came from

I lost my eyesight for five years,” she said. “I understand the frustration and anger they’re going through.” The group, which has now become an extension of her family, meets monthly to talk challenges out and share stories. “They don’t get sympathy from me, they get encouragement to do things,” she said. This is the second song Chris has written for his parents. Ten years ago the area resident crafted a song about his parents raising their children in honour of their 40th anniversary. This track was then sold to support AIDS orphans in India. However, ‘50 Years Ago’ was a more challenging creative pursuit thanks to writer’s block. Chris said it was just a month ago when he decided to pick up his guitar again and try to write the song. Once he realized the theme of

Seeing is believing at United Way agency tour the support of a big and case worker has been invaluable to her entire family in providing ongoing support through life’s ups and downs. “If it wasn’t for everybody that does support I’m the one who suffers really,” Findley added. “My children are very grateful.” Over the last five years the number of children BBBS has served through their various mentorship programs has gone from under 50 to over 300 with no signs of it slowing down. “It looks like we’ll serve 250 this fall alone,” Miller reported to tour participants. The United Way funding accounts for six per cent of BBBS’ overall budget and has been a staple in their financial planning for over 20 years now. This service touches almost all of the schools in

EMC News - In preparation for this year’s United Way campaign launch, agency staff hit the road in hopes of bringing the good work of member agencies out into the light of day. The United Way of Lanark County (UWLC) hosted its first agency tour in Perth and Smiths Falls Thursday, Sept. 13 where approximately eight individuals hopped on the bus to learn more about the member agencies and their impact on local communities. “Seeing is believing,” remarked Fraser Scantlebury, fund developer for UWLC. Last week’s tour of the same name took in the Youth Action Kommittee in Perth, the Adult Learning and Training Centre in Smiths Falls and Big Brothers Big Sisters of Lanark County (BBBS) that is headquartered in Smiths Falls. Cindy Halcrow, clerk/ administrator at Drummond/ North Elmsley was one of the tour attendees Sept. 13 and represented the township’s long-standing support of United Way. “I really believe in helping your community,” Halcrow said. Municipal staff in Drummond/North-Elmsley recently increased their annual donations to the United Way last year through a holiday fundraising drive and regular pay cheque giving. “They’ve been a big supporter,” Scantlebury said. Sarah Bridson, executive director of the United Way was very pleased with the success of the tour and its ability to see the real need of the agencies they serve. “It was such an eye opening experience and re-affirmed for donors why they gave to United Way,” Bridson said. Participants were treated for lunch at YAK where Perth youth stopped by to talk about the importance of the centre in their lives and what they would be doing were it not for YAK. “It was a very moving and

The presentation took place in the United Way Resource Room inside their Smiths Falls office. This room is aptly named as United Way provided the necessary funds to stock the shelves and finish the colourful decor. United Way hopes to host a second agency tour in the spring 2013 where agencies in Carleton Place and Almonte will be toured. Anyone with a suggested visit site is asked to contact the United Way at 613-253-9074 or via email at fscantlebury@lanarkunitedway.com. Photo by STACEY ROY

Participants during the Sept. 13 United Way member agency tour in Perth and Smiths Falls arrived at their first stop at Big Brothers Big Sisters of Lanark County on William Street in Smiths Falls. The tours, which will take place in Carleton Place and Mississippi Mills next spring, aim to show donors what is done with the funds they provide each year.

Those who toured the Adult Learning and Training Centre were impressed with the program that helps individuals learn to operate a cash register and make change. This year the United Way is hoping to increase the number of individuals in the county wishing to make a regular donation through pay roll deductions. For a dollar a day individuals can transform into an ‘Every Day Hero’ and help the United Way reach their 2012 goal of $330, 000. Last year’s campaign was significantly short of its overall goal, which sent a ripple effect through the 16-member

agencies it supports. Jennifer Miller, executive director of BBBS explained the small cut in their United Way funding this year meant a gap in their budget and a hit to the hours of trained case workers. “Knowing that this (United Way funding) is coming is the only piece we can count on in our $350, 000 budget,” Miller added. “It makes it really hard for us to tell those children that we’ll be here for you next year.” Carol Findley, a single mother of four boys spoke to the importance of BBBS’ presence in her sons’ lives in terms of providing encouragement and a positive male role model to emulate.

Lanark County 2012 Nationals Slam Team headed for national festival with funding challenges EMC Entertainment - On Saturday, June 23 the Lanark County Live Poets Society (LiPS) held their fifth Slam Finals spoken word competition to select the team to represent Lanark County at the 2012 Canadian Festival of Spoken Word (CFSW). The highest ranked poets who had competed in at least two slams of this season’s series were invited to compete for a place on the team. The 2012 Lanark County Slam Championship was taken by Tammy “Dimorphic” MacKenzie, with Satinka “Poetiquette” Schilling, Danielle K. L. Gregoire, and Andy Kerr-Wilson completing the team, and Beth “b! WILDer” Schilling as alternate. Unfortunately, Danielle had to step down, so b! WILDer moved in to her place and Jon “jonny D” Davidson became alternate. LiPS and the team have been fundraising for the past three months, as CFSW 2012 is

being held in Saskatoon this year, and it has been challenging to raise the money needed to fly the five team members out west, provide lodging, and feed them, for six days. The team will be flying out Oct. 8 and have still not raised the needed funds to cover the costs, so they will be holding one final fundraising event on Friday, Sept. 28 in Perth, at Bakers Bean (formerly the Factory Grind), 1 Sherbrooke St. E. The event will be an open mic beginning at 7 p.m., with the team performing spoken word, and art sale. Admission is only $5 and all funds raised will go to supporting the team. The artwork can be seen and purchased through LiPS’ Facebook page event “On-line Art Sale – Help Launch LiPS to Saskatoon”. People can also go to indiegogo.com/lips to make a donation, get a perk in return, and watch a short video with clips from team members performing at the Slam Finals.

Spoken word slams originated in Chicago in 1986 and have been growing all across the world. In Canada, the annual Canadian Festival of Spoken Word, or CFSW, has had participation grow from eight teams in 2008 to more than 20 teams from slam series across the country attending this year. Canadian spoken word artists have also been competing in US festivals and at the World Poetry Slam in France,

Michael Runtz guest speaker for Rideau Lakes Horticultural Society EMC Lifestyle - The Rideau Lakes Horticultural Society is particularly pleased that the guest speaker at the October meeting will be Michael Runtz, one of Canada’s most highly respected naturalists, nature photographers, and natural history authors. Michael was an interpretive naturalist for many years, in both Algonquin Provincial Park and Point Pelee National Park, and has led the annual Public Wolf Howl at Bonnechere Provincial Park since 1993. Michael has conducted several major biological surveys across Ontario, hosted an international television series Wild by Nature, written more than 1,000 newspaper and magazine articles, and published 10 bestselling books on natural history topics that feature his award-winning photography. His latest book, just released, is ‘Natural History’. An avid birdwatcher since the age of five, Michael has been a member - often captain - of winning teams in many major birding competitions. Today, he teaches at Carleton University where his highly visual and self-created Natural History and Ornithology courses continue to attract extraordinarily high enrollments, more than 4,000 students to date. A frequent keynote speaker at conferences and events and regular guest on radio and

television, Michael was the only Canadian featured in the TVO/NHK Japan 2001 Superteachers series that profiled such notables as Jane Goodall and Nelson Mandela. His conservation and educational efforts have been recognized with numerous awards, including a Federation of Ontario Naturalists’ Service Award, The Friends of Algonquin Park Directors Award, the Canadian Council of University Biology Chairs Distinguished Public Education Award, and the Carleton University Lifetime Achievement Award. Michael will be the featured guest speaker at the RLHS monthly meeting to be held on Wednesday, Oct. 3 at 7:15 p.m. at the Portland Community Hall. Guests and non-members are welcome; a $5 admission fee will apply. There will also be an opportunity at this meeting for members to renew their membership for 2013 at a cost of $15. Those members renewing early will be entered in a draw, to be held at the Christmas Party on Thursday, Dec. 6, for a free membership. Also, new members who buy their 2013 membership early are welcome to attend the remaining meetings of 2012 at no extra charge.

Meet and greet planned for Scotland guests visiting Carleton Place for 20th anniversary By EMC Staff

Photo courtesy LYNN DUKE, The Strathearn Herald

community in Scotland during this very special anniversary year,� Maguire observes. “We want Carleton Place citizens to know how seriously the relationship is viewed in Comrie.� Long history On Saturday Aug. 1, 1992 ceremonies were held simultaneously in both Carleton Place and Comrie to officially launch a linkage which has now surpassed two decades. It was Peter McNaughton, a Comrie native who now resides in Pointe-Claire, Quebec (a Montreal suburb), who first suggested a twinning arrangement would serve the interests of both communities. His idea led to discussions between officials and residents in both centres which culminated in the formation of twinning committees and the establishment of an official relationship. The twinning is based on history. As McNaughton pointed out, many of the first settlers of Morphy’s Falls (now Carleton Place) and Beckwith Township were immigrants who came to Lanark County from the Perthshire Region of Scotland, which includes Comrie, in the 19th Century. Among those who were involved in the original twinning committee in Carleton Place were the late Mayor Melba Barker and then councillor Tim Campbell who is now a member of the township council in Beckwith. Comrie principals included the John Robertson family along with Jimmy Stewart and the late Jimmy McEwan. At the time McEwan and Stewart were members of the Comrie Pipe Band which was instrumental in moving the relationship forward. The pipe band led official delegations that visited Carleton Place in 1994 and again in 1997. Carleton Place, Beckwith and Lanark County residents have made numerous excursions, both official and unofficial, to Comrie over the years. The committees in both

communities have evolved and changed over the course of 20 years. In 2006 the Carleton Place Sister City Committee helped launch a student exchange program in concert with the town’s second twin community, Franklin Tennessee. That initiative has now operated successfully for seven years. In 2010 the program was expanded to include Comrie. Officials in both communities are currently working to arrange a second Scotland-Canada student exchange which is being planned for next summer. Recruiting of students in Carleton Place will begin next March. “The recent 20th anniversary observances in Comrie have served to further strengthen the ties between our communities,� Maguire

THE EMC - 4 - Thursday, September 27, 2012

R0011635592/0927

EMC Events - A month after celebrations were held in Scotland to mark the 20th anniversary of the twinning involving the Highland village of Comrie and the Eastern Ontario town of Carleton Place, the scene has shifted to Canada. The sixth annual Heritage Ball this Saturday (Sept. 29) in the Carleton Place Town Hall Auditorium will celebrate the two decade-old linkage involving the two communities. The event is sponsored by the Carleton Place Sister City Committee which oversees twinning arrangements with Comrie and the city of Franklin, Tennessee near Nashville. The theme of this year’s Heritage Ball, which raises funds for the annual Sister Cities Student Exchange program involving the three communities, is ‘A Highland Fling.’ The historic auditorium will be suitably decorated for the occasion and there will be lots of Scottish touches including a bagpiper and Haggis (a traditional Scottish dish). Participants will also be able to enjoy a “wee dram� of Highland nectar. As of Monday some tickets remained for the formal dinner/dance. (See the contact information at the end of this article!) On hand to help mark the 20th anniversary will be three members of the Lees family from Comrie. George Lees, the long-time chairman of the Comrie Twinning Committee, will be accompanied by his wife Marlyn and daughter Amanda. Mr. Lees is now a member of the newly formed Twinning Subcommittee of Comrie Community Council which arranged the recent anniversary events in Scotland. He was a key participant in the activities held in Comrie Aug. 16-18. During the Lees’ last visit to Carleton Place in the summer of 2005 they were involved in a ceremony to unveil an information sign about Comrie which stands in the parkette at the corner of McNeely Avenue and Coleman Street, near the Trans Canada Trail. The family has visited Carleton Place and Canada on many occasions over the years. The local Sister City Committee is also planning a public event during which residents can meet the Scottish visitors. A reception is scheduled for Moore House on Bridge St. (opposite the Town Hall) on Wednesday, Oct. 3. It will run from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. and is open to the public. “We encourage local officials, businesspeople and the general public to attend this special event on Oct. 3,� says Carleton Place Sister City Committee chair Jeff Maguire. “We would also like to see people who have taken part in past group visits to Comrie at the reception. “It will take the form of a meet and greet and offers a good opportunity to speak with people from our twin

observes. “We look forward to the celebrations planned here this weekend and in early October. “But the future of the twinning lies with young people. Therefore the student exchange program is intrinsic to the future success of the Sister City relationship,� he adds. As mentioned there are still some tickets remaining for the Heritage Ball scheduled for this Saturday evening. The social hour starts at 6 p.m. followed by dinner and entertainment at 7 o’clock. Dancing will begin at 9:15 with ‘Everything Zen’ providing the music. Anyone interested in attending the formal dinner/dance is urged to contact Maguire by email at Jeffrey.maguire@rogers.com or Manda Blakeley, economic promotions coordinator for the Town of Carleton Place by calling 613-257-3822 or by e-mail at: mblakeley@ carletonplace.ca

Eighth Annual BIA Maskeraid Halloween Parade on Oct. 27 EMC Events – The Carleton Place BIA would like to invite all the ghosts and witches “Downtown� on the Mississippi for the eighth annual Maskeraid Halloween Parade. This one of a kind event is sure to be a BOOtiful night in Carleton Place. Dozens of ghoulish floats and costumed participants will be marching down Bridge Street on Oct. 27. Beginning at 7 p.m.,

the parade will kick off at Heritage Mall on Lansdowne Avenue and travel down the length of Bridge Street ending at Mill Street by the Town Hall. Registration forms are now available for anyone who would like to take part in this spellbinding fall event. Parents, kids and all interested spectators are encouraged to come downtown Carleton Place dressed-up in a favourite Halloween costume

Tickets still available for this weekend’s Murray McLauchlan concert EMC Entertainment – Tickets can still be had for the Murray McLauchlan “Up Close & Personal� concert in Carleton Place this Saturday, Sept. 29. The iconic Canadian singer/songwriter will be making an ‘encore’ performance at the St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church with showtime set for 8 p.m. Last October this 11-time Juno Award winner and recipient of the Order of Canada performed two sold-out shows in Carleton Place. The success of those concerts did

much to elevate the community onto the national entertainment stage and to establish the town as a destination for first-rate entertainment and first-rate acts. In May the large and elegant Garnet Rogers performed in town and on Nov. 23 the “one and only� Valdy will make an appearance in Carleton Place as well. Tickets for the McLauchlan concert are $40 apiece and can be picked up at SRC Music in Carleton Place or at Burns Jewellers in Perth. Phone 613257-4970 for more info.

to watch the Maskeraid Parade haunt on by. Eerie music, clowns, vampires and goblins will ‘float’ down Bridge Street into the dark abyss. Residents, businesses and visitors are asked to parade for aid in the exclusive-toCarleton Place event and bring non-perishable food items to support the Lanark County Food Bank. Members of the BIA, businesses and community

groups of Carleton Place and the surrounding area can help make this fall event a groundbreaking success by submitting a well-decorated float that reflects the fall harvest theme or a Halloween theme. Brew some extra fun this Halloween through teamwork and build the freakiest float with your neighbourhood. The parade is the perfect opportunity for parents to give their kids a most spooktacular

Halloween by hosting a daylong costume party and concluding their festivities at the Maskeraid Parade. Schools, sports’ teams, community/ social groups are also encouraged to showcase their creative side with an elaborate float or by creating a Food Bank challenge between other groups. The BIA is proud to be the Ghostess with the Mostess and looks forward to Meeting

everyone Downtown on the Mississippi for the rain-orshine event. For more information or to register a float, contact the BIA office at 613-257-8049 or e-mail cmcormond@carletonplace.ca.

EMC News – Cat and dog fans can now support LAWS all year long thanks to a new fundraising calendar. Local amateur photographer Fiona M. Donnelly, who lives in the Port Elmsley area, has unveiled a calendar entitled “The Magic of Lanark County,� at a cost of $15, $5 of which goes to the Lanark Animal Welfare Society, which is in dire financial straits. The calendar is available at the Garden Market, Apollo PC at Davidson’s Courtyard, and at LAWS’ downtown storefront, all in Smiths Falls. The photos take in several natural beauty spots around the county, including the Poonamalie Lock on the Rideau Canal outside of Smiths Falls, the five-span bridge in Pakenham, the Mississippi River outside of Pakenham, Haggard’s Dam in Perth, a sugar shack off of Churchill Road, the Detached Lock at Smiths Falls and Sand Lake near Westport. “They’re all very local photos and I took them myself,� said Donnelly, who has lived in Canada for the past 11 years. “I’ve always been an animal supporter.� Though she was raised in Germany, to a German mother, her father was a British military officer stationed in the country. She was born in Scotland and was even christened at St. Mary’s chapel, within the walls of Edinburgh Castle. While she lived in Germany she had several shelter dogs and volunteered with the International Fund for Animal Welfare when

Canada’s wildlife all the more. Donnelly noted that wolves and beavers are now extinct in Europe, but are still here in Canada. “That’s what I love about Canada,� she said.

As an added bonus Chelsea Kisil will perform her song Honey Doll, a song written to raise awareness of Youth Mental Health issues. Funds raised from the sales on iTunes will go directly to the Do It For Daron fund. With only 100 seats available this will prove to be an incredibly intimate and inspiring evening of entertainment. Donations will also be accepted for LAWS. Lynn Miles – Fall For Beauty There is something to be said for experience, for taking the time to grow into your own skin. All sturdy things need time to root firmly into the ground to find their strength. Lynn Miles is one of Canada’s most accomplished singer/songwriters. With seven albums to her credit, the winner of multiple Canadian Folk Music Awards, and a 2003 Juno Award for Roots & Traditional Solo Album of the Year, she has certainly found her strength over time. Through a career that has seen her move from Ottawa to Los Angeles and back again, with stops in Nashville and Austin, she has always written music with unbridled feeling and vulnerability. Miles has consistently been unflinching in putting herself out there. Now with her eighth studio offering Fall For Beauty the voice of her experience has truly elevated her songwriting to its richest depth of emotion. While her melodies undulate between traditional country and folk roots, on Fall for Beauty, it’s her sen-

sitivity to the world around her that pours itself directly into Miles’ music to make it stand out. “Love Doesn’t Hurt� was written as an emotional plea for people in abusive relationships. “I wrote this song after watching Oprah do a show about domestic violence. She kept repeating ‘love doesn’t hurt’ and even though I’ve written plenty of songs about how emotionally painful love can be, I wanted to put this crucial idea right up there beside my other songs, for

balance, and clarity,� says Miles. “I’ve been playing the song live and have been approached by several people who work at women’s shelters who tell me it’s a powerful song, and that they want to play it for their clients. There’s no better compliment than that.� Therein is the powerful secret behind Miles’ music - her astute observations of life, its trials and triumphs, are the hallmark of sincerity in her music.

Celebrating our young people

An evening with the Dream Police Legendary 1970s rockers Cheap Trick stormed back to Ottawa with a performance at the 149th Carp Fair Friday evening. While the concert attracted an enthusiastic crowd, the show was far from a sellout. During the course of their set, the band performed their big-

gest hits including “Surrender”, “I Want You to Want Me”, “Dream Police” and “The Flame”. Bassist Tom Petersson smiles as he responds to the crowd during Cheap Trick’s performance Sept. 21. Petersson even sang lead vocals on one song during the evening.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Canada 55+ Games a memorable experience DEAR EDITOR: Being well over 55+, I recently participated in the Canada 55+ Games Cape Breton, 2012. Losing my “life-long” partner, and being a veteran lawn bowler (not offered), the “Singles” event “Candlepin bowling” looked very interesting. I was not disappointed. It’s a great game – PEI-NS-NB certainly showed everyone how it was done. In 2014, the Canada 55+ Games will be held in Alberta. Yes!

I have already started to save. We tend to forget the opportunity to challenge ourselves (seniors) is out there - Ontario Senior Games (now OSGA 55+), Canada 55plus Games Cape Breton…thank you for a wonderful time. To our eastern friends - such a pleasure to visit your turf. Carol Husband Perth

EMC Editorial – When it comes to publicity, young people often get the short end of the stick. All too often, a few ‘bad eggs’ grab the headlines, tainting the vast majority of upstanding youngsters, many of whom deserve praise for what they do to better their world. Enter the annual Ontario Junior Citizen of the Year Awards. This wonderful program is co-ordinated by the Ontario Community Newspapers Association (OCNA), of which the EMC is a member, and sponsored by TD Bank Group as well as Direct Energy. This is your chance to shine a bright light on a young person who does good work in their community. Sometimes it’s easy to pick someone special from a crowd. Other times it may not be quite as obvious. Often, the young person does not even realize that what they are doing is making a difference. Any Ontario resident aged six to 17 is eligible to be chosen as an Ontario Junior Citizen of the Year. They could be someone involved in a worthwhile community service; a special young person contributing to their community while living with a physical or psychological limitation; perhaps they’ve performed an act of heroism in the past year; or they are simply good kids who show a commitment to make life better for others and do more than is normally expected of someone their age. Each year, more than 100 nominations are received. Up to 12 nominees will be chosen as final recipients of the provincial award which they will receive at a special ceremony next spring. Better yet, each nominee receives a certificate of recognition. We will also showcase their contributions in the EMC. Help us pay tribute to our leaders of today and tomorrow. Nomination deadline for the 2012 Ontario Junior Citizen of the Year Awards is Nov. 30. Nomination forms are available at www.ocna.org/juniorcitizen or by calling the OCNA at 1-905-639-8720, ext. 239.

Fall tradition of burning leaves became family pastime EMC Lifestyle – This time of year, we all smelled the same at the Northcote School. The heavy scent of burning leaves penetrated everything we wore, and no amount of airing out could eliminate the odour of our smoke-infested clothes. But none of us minded. Burning leaves was something we all looked forward to at our farm and as far as I knew everyone in Northcote did the same thing. So none of us minded the heavy smell of smoke on our clothes that took days to get rid of. Well, that is, we five kids and Mother. Father said making the event into a grand affair was something he had little time for. Too many other more important things to do on the farm instead of making a party out of burning leaves! Our front and side yards were full of big maple trees,

Mary Cook’s Memories MARY COOK

and by the time the last of the summer rolled around, the leaves were, in some places, knee deep. We waited until the limbs were completely bare, and then, always on a Saturday, it was time to rake the leaves and pile them into big mounds well away from the house and barns. “You’re asking for trouble,” Father would say. “Just one little spark and the whole place would go up in smoke.” Mother paid him no heed, asking him to come up with even one barn or house that had been burned to the ground because of leaf burning out at

Northcote. “Well, I sure hope we aren’t the first!” he retorted every year as long as I can remember. I wasn’t big enough or strong enough to manage a rake. So my job was to circle the mounds and with my feet, try to make each pile round, and push any wayward leaves into place. It took most of the day to round up all the leaves, and when we were finished, we would have about four big piles of leaves in the centre of the yard. Of course, Mother, who made an occasion out of the most simple events, wouldn’t let us light the leaves until after the sun had gone down and the yard was in complete darkness. Supper would be early that night; another excuse for Father to complain. He liked everything on time and that included his meals. So by the time we had eaten, cleaned

up the kitchen and hauled out chairs to circle the mounds of leaves, nightfall had settled in. We would start out with heavy jackets on, to ward off the chill of the fall evening. My oldest brother Everett was always in charge of the matches. He had the lighting of the mounds down pat. He rolled sheets of the Renfrew Mercury into tight cones, and he lit the paper, setting it ablaze. That way he could poke the paper deep into the mounds of leaves, making sure it burned from the inside out. Very clever, was my brother Everett. We sat on the kitchen chairs, circling the burning mound, but well back from the fire, we five children and Mother. Father chose to stay in the house reading the Ottawa Farm Journal. If marshmallows were in existence back

then, we certainly didn’t know about them. And it is doubtful we could have afforded them anyway. So the only enjoyment we got was sitting on the chairs and watching the raked leaves go up in smoke. Mother always took her mouth organ out on those nights, and she expected us to sing along to whatever she was playing. Emerson refused. Audrey with her clear, sweet voice was the only one who could carry a tune, and so she and Mother provided what entertainment there was. I would sit on the chair, and listen, and watch the flames rise towards the sky and wonder why Father couldn’t see the sheer joy of the evening. The old iron pump was right in the middle of the yard, and although Mother said there was absolutely no need for it, Father made sure there were several pails on the

pump platform just in case the blaze got out of hand. By the time the fire was raging, we took off our jackets as the heat came at us in waves. It didn’t take long for the piles of leaves to be burnt right to the ground. And I often wondered if it was worth the effort. When it was all over, and we had hauled the kitchen chairs back into the house, Father would let out a big sigh, as if he carried the cares of the world on his shoulders. He would go out to the yard for the first time since supper was over, and he would pump many pails of water, and pour it over the remnants of the burning leaves. He was taking no chances that the barns and the log house that had been there for three generations would go up in smoke!

Joey Wright is known for his lyrical and inspired guitar and mandolin playing. He is versed in many styles such as bluegrass, blues, swing, pop and country. He is also known for his unique compositions. Joey is a sought after collaborator as much for his positive and inspirational attitude as for his musical vision and talent. Wright has appeared on many highly acclaimed Canadian recordings. Recently he has played on albums by Sarah Harmer (for which Joey received a gold record), Amy Millan, Oh Suzanna, Ruth Moody, Pierre Schryer, Jenny Whiteley, Dan Whiteley, and The Banjo Special to name a few. His own three solo albums have garnered rave reviews as well as a Juno nomination. “Joey Wright doesn’t need a bio,� says Sarah Harmer. “You just hear about him. A rumour, a sound. Musical charisma enveloping a career of cinematic guitars, slides of blues and bluegrass. An inspired force of beauty and bravado, danger and charm.� “Have guitar. Will travel.� is the motto of Terry Tufts, a finger-style guitarist living off-grid with his wife and daughter in the bush in North Frontenac, Ontario. Tufts has been playing music for enjoyment since 1963 and as a profession since 1974. His father’s job with the Canadian Government moved the family to

EMC News - Some of the area’s best local musicians will be contributing their talents to the cause of a special fundraising concert at MERA Schoolhouse in McDonald’s Corners on Sunday, Sept. 30, at 2 pm. Guitarist and songwriter Joey Wright and singer/ songwriter Terry Tufts will headline the multi-artist event which has been organized to support an upcoming permanent monthly concert series at MERA. Other artists on the bill include the family-band Bob Spelled Backwards, Allan Brown and Steve Kotze. More artists are expected to join the bill as the date of the event approaches. The event will include a silent auction of donated items, including several hand-made items by MERA potters, weavers and fiber artists. The MERA music committee is hosting the fundraiser as a means to raise money to support a permanent monthly concert series at MERA Schoolhouse. “MERA Schoolhouse has proven itself over the years as a desirable venue for small concerts,� says Danny Sullivan, MERA board member. “Canadian professional musicians as well as worldclass international performers from the US, Australia and Europe have been rewarded by their appearances at the schoolhouse and have almost universally praised the Schoolhouse’s large room for its warmth, intimacy and acoustic qualities. These concerts have generally been timed to coincide with a particular artist’s other appearances in the area, and have often taken place on what would otherwise be an off night for the artist. This timing is not always the best for MERA and its audiences.� A permanent series, Sullivan says, would allow MERA to plan concerts on a regular schedule, with reasonable guarantees for the artists and a budget for advertising, as well as allowing for things like hiring local artists and upand-comers to perform as “opening acts.� It will also allow for series ticket packages, so audiences can both plan ahead and get discounts, as well as allowing further discounts on ticket prices for MERA members.

Young actors, who will be performing in the Mudds Youth performance of Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing, appear left to right: Katie Irvine as Leonata, Jack Cruise as Don Pedro, Cristian Bowie as Claudio, and Molly Cooney as Hero.

Four hundred year old comedy to hit Town Hall stage EMC News - When people think of Shakespeare, they usually think of the great tragedies: Hamlet, Macbeth, Romeo and Juliet, and King Lear. And to tell the truth, most actors would rather bust their dramatic chops on a good scene-chewing tragic hero – doing comedy just doesn’t seem serious somehow. But in his day, the Bard was loved for his comedies. In the year 1600, he was the age’s greatest writer of situation comedies. Shakespeare’s plays were Seinfeld, MASH, Cheers, and All in the Family all rolled into one. In a time when bear baiting was considered popular entertainment, William Shakespeare drew people from all classes and walks of life into the theatre to enjoy his sophisticated wordplay and character-based humour. And he continues to bring in the audiences four hundred years later, both on stage - wit-

ness the popularity of Canada’s own Stratford Festival - and on screen – it seems that every year some new version of one of his plays is re-imagined for yet another cinematic treatment. Part of his secret, of course, is that not only do audiences like seeing the plays, but actors love performing in them. The tradition of acting Shakespeare continues this year in Carleton Place, as well, as the Mississippi Mudds Youth Theatre brings the well-loved Much Ado About Nothing to the Town Hall Stage. Among the young actors cutting their teeth on the Bard are newcomer Molly Cooney, who plays the young romantic lass named Hero; Cristian Bowie, who played the First Murderer in last year’s Macbeth, plays Claudio, the object of Hero’s affection; Katie Irvine, who played Ruth in last year’s Mudds Youth production of Pirates of Penzance

Jr. as Hero’s mother Leonata; and Jack Cruise – Macbeth himself – broadening his range and taking a romantic and comedic turn playing the dashing prince Don Pedro. Director Mark Piper is obviously very proud of his young cast. “I don’t know how I got so lucky, finding 13 talented teenagers like this, who give up two nights a week to come and rehearse this play, not counting the time they spend at home working on their characters.” But it’s obvious the young actors are having fun too despite their hard work. So if you’re ready to enjoy watching a group of actors, all under 20 years old, embrace the tradition of the actor’s craft, and fearlessly take on a comedy that’s over 400 years old, you’re ready for the Mudds Youth Theatre’s production of Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing.

It may not be ‘Dredd’-ful, but film’s not a must-see either her powerful mutant psychic ability. Dredd doesn’t like it but orders are orders. Their first call is to a 200-storey mega structure called Peach Trees. Three people are dead, and when Dredd and Anderson investigate it leads to a drug bust. As they attempt to take in a suspect massive steal blast doors close the entire building off. Peach Trees is run by Madeline ‘Ma Ma’ Madrigal (Lena Headey). She controls the flow of SloMo a new drug that makes users perceive reality at a fraction of its normal speed. The last thing she wants are a couple of Judges questioning one of her people. That means Dredd and Anderson will have to fight their way through 200 levels of Hell in order to survive. Dredd wasn’t my first choice this weekend, but due to circumstance and

My Take time constraints it was the movie I found myself watching. Dredd is a dark, ultra violent film with a minimum of dialogue. In other words it was exactly what Dredd should be. It’s a tight story with intense action, and it stays true to the original comic book. The thing is, as good as Dredd is, it wasn’t anything special. I didn’t walk away feeling this was a must-see film. For me Dredd would be a great movie to find on TV when you are bored and looking for mindless entertainment. Dredd is not a complicated character by any stretch. He’s certainly not an emo-

tionally taxing character to play. Nonetheless Karl Urban is awesome as the main character. He has the gravelly voice, the constant sense of righteous anger, and he never takes off the helmet. He is perfect. Olivia Thirlby is relatively new to me, and while this might not been the kind of film that showcases acting talent, I liked her. She balances Urban really well, and manages to kick some butt of her own. Lena Headey is fantastic. Ma Ma is an absolutely vile human being – a truly despicable piece of trash with no regard for human life. Headey doesn’t hesitate or hold back, but throws

EMC News - The Ontario Straw Bale Building Coalition is hosting a province-wide tour of straw bale buildings on Sunday, Sept. 30, including homes in Lanark Highlands. Straw bale building has grown from complete obscurity to public prominence in the past decade. Captivated with the idea of strong, durable, super-insulated and beautiful homes that cost no more than custom conventional construction and which offer remarkable environmental benefits, over 200 home-owners across the province have chosen to build with bales. This tour is the perfect op-

portunity to step right inside some straw bale buildings, see what they are like, and get honest feedback from the owners about all aspects of their buildings. The Ontario Straw Bale Building Coalition (OSBBC) was formed in the late 1990s to meet the needs of the public vis-Ă -vis research and information about building environmentally sound homes of straw. Homeowners, designers, builders and enthusiasts make up this grass-roots organization which has become an important stepping stone in the world of natural building in Canada and beyond. The

OSBBC initiates and supports efforts to further the base of knowledge about building with natural materials. On the straw bale building tour, there will be other natural wall systems featured, including earth block, cordwood, and clay/straw. Residential homes make up the majority of the buildings on the tour, but there is also a cidery, a winery, and a children’s teaching kitchen taking part this year. Unique natural buildings of all shapes and sizes will be open to the public, offering the opportunity to step inside these buildings and see how they really work.

Many of the homes utilize other innovative technologies as well, including active and passive solar, wind power, green roofs, unique wastetreatment systems and natural materials. The tour, which stretches across the province from Ottawa to Parry Sound to Guelph will run from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sunday, Sept. 30. The cost of the tour is $10 per person, which gains you admission to as many houses as you wish, or you can purchase a membership in the OSBBC which gains you free admission to all the houses on the tour plus the other numerous benefits of membership in the OSBBC. For more information regarding the tour visit the website at www.osbbc.ca/tour or contact: Tina Therrien strawbus@auracom.com or call 1-877-872-9225.

EMC News - Beckwith Township has partnered with the Heritage Masonry Program at Algonquin College, Perth Campus to have masonry work completed on the Prospect United Church. Algonquin College Dean, Shelley Carter-Rose said, “we are very pleased to be community partners; the work experience and community volunteer work our students experience is a very positive aspect of their learning. Our continued work with the Beckwith Township is a priority and we look forward to ongoing collaborative work together.� The students were able to acquire practical experience working on a community project and Beckwith Township was able to up-

grade the stonework on the back wall of the church. The project was supported by the leadership of Professor Darrin MacDonald of the Heritage Masonry Program. Algonquin College Professor, Darrin MacDonald added, “the Masonry students of Algonquin College had the best learning experience working with the Township of Beckwith on the United Church in Prospect. Any time we can use a real life situation like an outdoor classroom always enhances the students’ learning.� Reeve Richard Kidd

comments, “On behalf of the Township of Beckwith I would like to thank the Algonquin College masonry program for a job well done. The Prospect United Church was built in 1847 and taken over by the Township in 2004. Since then it’s been the site of an annual fundraiser that helps support the ongoing maintenance of the building. The Doo in the Derry is an afternoon of musical entertainment put on by local entertainers. This year’s event will be held on Sept. 30, from 2-4 p.m. Partnering with Algonquin College was a great oppor-

Better Than Scalloped Potatoes still rate number one vour, this dish combines potatoes and onion in a sauce made with cheese, soup and sour cream. It’s topped with a thick, crunchy layer of corn flake crumbs. When I make this recipe, I usually count on one large potato per person. You’ll have enough sauce here for six to eight but, if there are going to be more, you’ll have to increase the amount of sauce. Partially cooking the potatoes reduces the baking time. If you prepare the dish ahead of time, refrig-

erate it, then let it come to room temperature before putting it in the oven. This recipe can be made with lighter versions of soup and sour cream if you wish. Better Than Scalloped Potatoes 6-8 large potatoes,

peeled and sliced about 1/4 inch thick 1 onion, chopped 1 can cream of chicken or mushroom soup 1 cup grated Cheddar cheese 1 cup sour cream 1 1/2 to 2 cups crushed corn flake crumbs

In a medium saucepan, cook the sliced potatoes in water until they’re barely tender, then drain well. Alternating layers with the onion, arrange the potatoes in a greased 2 1/2 quart casserole or 8� baking pan. In a saucepan, combine the soup and grated cheese. Cook on low, stirring often, until the cheese has melted. Stir in the sour cream. (You can also prepare this in the microwave). Pour the sauce over the potatoes, and sprinkle the top generously with corn

flake crumbs. Bake at 350F for 30 to 45 minutes until heated through. I find the easiest way to check that the potatoes are heated all the way through is to insert a knife in the center of the dish. Feel the knife for heat. If it’s good and hot, so are the potatoes. If the knife feels lukewarm or cold, you need to bake the dish awhile longer. Serves 6 to 8.

High energy pup looking for consistent direction and forever home This Week’s Pets

gy. She is still very much in her puppy stage and needs clear and consistent direction with a firm but fair and gentle handler. At the moment Laika is in a foster home with one of the shelter staff. This is providing her with a lot of learning opportunities that will help her in her forever home. She is still learning what in-home manners are, it is very likely she was tied out a lot in her early life. She is excitable and jumps to get closer to those she is excited to see. She isn’t highly vocal and tends to alarm bark only when strangers approach the house. Laika is crate-trained for times when she is not supervised. She is still exhibiting teething behaviours and very much enjoys ripping the stuffing out of toys and blankets. She is currently being

trained basic commands (such as recall, sit, down, stay etc.,) name recognition and again, appropriate inside behaviour. Laika loves the car and travels well. Porsha is a Shepherd/ Rotti mix, currently 7 1/2 months old. Porsha has been on foster with one of our shelter staff since her arrival. She has come a long way since she arrived at the shelter. She is a beautiful girl who has many endearing traits. She loves cuddling and is incredibly affectionate in every way. She gets along with whoever she meets dogs, cats and children. Porsha currently knows; sit, paw, down, come and “in your house” (crate.) As for the command “stay” she hasn’t quite got that down to a tee, but she’s working very hard to perfect it and she’s extremely

intelligent, so we have no doubt she will. Porsha is very energetic as she still is a pup. A few of the many things she enjoys are playing fetch, going for walks or just laying on her pillow with her chew toys. She wasn’t too sure about car rides as she does occasionally experience car-sickness; but Porsha is doing much better with every trip. This lovely girl still needs some guidance but will make an excellent family dog as she currently is in a home with children. Fundraiser for LAWS Everything Zen Band will be at Farrell Hall on Friday, Oct. 26 from 8 p.m. -2 a.m. There will be a silent auction. For tickets contact Kellie 613-2509183, also available at Imperial Perth, and LAWS. This event is sponsored by Farrell Hall (Terri Lee and Kellie Desjardins). Please come out and help LAWS.

EMC News – Today’s youth are the leaders of tomorrow and they deserve to be recognized. It’s time once again to call for nominations for the Ontario Junior Citizen of the Year Awards. Extraordinary young leaders – they’re all around us: in schools, at church and on sports teams. Sometimes it’s easy to pick someone special from a crowd, while other times it may not be quite as obvious. Truth is, there are young people everywhere who are working hard at bettering their communities. Many may not even realize they’re making a difference. It’s time to recognize their dedication and nominate them for the 2012 Ontario Junior Citizen of the Year Award. The EMC strongly supports the ONJCYA here in the Ottawa Valley, so we can provide recognition for such outstanding young people who continue to be fine examples of leaders in our community. The awards program is coordinated by the Ontario Community Newspapers Association (OCNA), of which we are a member, and sponsored by TD Bank

Arnprior early season leaders in Valley Division; Almonte records first win of season at Stittsville By JEFF MAGUIRE

EMC Sports - Despite a pre-season shake-up that saw their entire coaching staff and a number of veteran players leave the fold, Arnprior Packers have picked up right where they left off last season in the Valley Division of the Eastern Ontario Junior Hockey League (EOJHL). The defending Valley champion Packers rolled over Perth Blue Wings 7-2 Sunday afternoon to improve to 3-1 early in the EOJHL campaign. With the loss Perth fell to 2-2. The second place Wings trail the leaders by two points. Shots on goal were even at 41. But Packers got good goaltending from Kyle Lamothe who kicked out 39 Perth scoring tries. Arnprior held interval leaders of

2-1 and 5-1 and then outscored the home team 2-1 in a penalty-marred final stanza. Former Shawville and Renfrew star Ethan Allard led the way for his new team with a goal and three assists. He has nine points including six helpers in four appearances. Rookie forward Jared Steege continues to shine. He netted a hat trick and moved to eight points including five tallies. Derrin Lehoux had a goal and two helpers for the winners. Veteran forwards Tanner Knight and Riley Kane replied for Perth. The game turned into a penalty-fest in the third period with 15 infractions called including fight majors and game misconducts to Arnprior’s Taylor Fen-

ton and Peter McGahey of Perth. McGahey was tagged as the instigator. At Goulbourn Recreation Complex in Stittsville Sunday afternoon, Almonte Thunder recorded their first win of the campaign, downing Stittsville Royals 5-3. Both clubs are now 1-2. Almonte led 3-2 after 20 minutes and never looked back adding one in the second and another late in the third period. Andrew Rowbotham triggered two goals for Thunder while Garret Nichol and Liam Killeen each set up a pair. Kevin Groulx led Royals offence with a goal and one assist. Troy Gauthier was the winning net minder while veteran puck stopper Karsten Pankhurst suffered

the setback at the other end of the ice. In other games Sunday involving Valley Division teams it was Renfrew falling 7-5 at home to Ottawa Junior Canadians of the Metro Division. And in a game involving West Quebec rivals it was Gatineau Mustangs rolling over winless Shawville Pontiacs 10-1 in a game played in Aylmer. Defending champion Gatineau leads the Metro Division with a 4-1 mark while Pontiacs plunged to 0-5 to start the campaign. Wings soar Friday night Perth improved to 2-1 with an 8-2 rout of Shawville, also in West Quebec. Three straight, first period powerplay goals was all Blue Wings needed. They led 3-2 after 20 minutes and then scored three more in the second and two unanswered in the final stanza. Last year’s Perth scoring sensation Brett Madigan is off to another great start this season. He scored a hat trick and set up another to lead Wings’ offence, giving him eight points including four goals in three

games. Kane netted twice and set up one while newcomer Mike Smyth also scored a pair, giving him a team leading five markers. Knight opened scoring for Perth in the first period after Pontiacs had taken an early one goal lead. Jason Shaw was the winning goalie while Jonathan Loyer took the loss, Shawville’s fourth in as many games. In Arnprior the new-look Packers recorded their second consecutive one goal win, this time at the expense of Almonte. The final was 5-4 with veteran right winger Lehoux leading the way with three goals and an assist. Lehoux’s hat trick lifted him to five goals and seven points in three outings. His third goal, early in the final frame, proved to be the winner. Allard scored for Arnprior late in the opening stanza with Riley Shore connecting for an unassisted tally during a second period powerplay. For Almonte it was former Carleton Place Canadians’ (Junior A) captain Kyle Phillips scoring once and setting up another.

Ex-Packer Ryan Eady and defenceman Kane AbbisMills had the others for Thunder who led the shots parade 32-26. Kyle Lamothe was the winning goalie while Peyton Parker suffered the loss. The third period featured 17 penalties with Phillips and Arnprior’s Matthew Burns ejected for fighting. Both picked up one game suspensions because the fisticuffs occurred in the last 10 minutes of the game. Last Thursday Shawville came very close but couldn’t top Ottawa West Golden Knights of the Metro loop. Nick Villeneuve’s second strike of the night, with 50 seconds left in regulation, broke a 3-3 deadlock and lifted Knights to their second victory in three outings. Tomorrow night (Friday) Clarence Creek Castors will be in Perth for a 7:45 start while Shawville entertains Almonte at 8 o’clock. Sunday night Perth travels to Renfrew for a 7:30 showdown with Timberwolves.

Lou Reid and Carolina to perform in Carleton Place Oct. 27 EMC Entertainment - When Tom McCann of Ashton heard that Lou Reid and Carolina were going to be performing in Canada this fall, he jumped at the opportunity to bring them to Carleton Place. In Tom’s books, and I am sure that any bluegrass lover in the area will agree, it is not nearly often enough that we get a chance to host top North American bluegrass acts, and this band is right up there at the top of the list. Lou Reid and Carolina are based out of Union Grove, North Carolina. The band began in 1992, with it’s sound largely based in traditional bluegrass roots with emphasis on dynamic vocals. The current band is no exception. Lou Reid anchors the band with his lead vocals. Lou is arguably the most recognizable voice in bluegrass music. He began his career with his first professional job as bassist for Doyle Lawson and Quicksilver. After three albums with Quicksilver, he took a very prominent position with the Ricky Skaggs Band, playing many different instruments and providing back-up vocals. He played banjo on the first number one country hit that featured banjo...Skagg’s ‘I’m Just a Country Boy’. After working so many dates with Ricky, Lou decided to come off of the road to

A special performance will take place in Carleton Place Oct. 27 featuring Lou Reid and Carolina. take the lead singer and guitarist position with The Seldom Scene. Working with John Duffey proved to be one of Lou’s career highlights. John gave Lou insight into singing that Lou still calls upon today. After spending six years with the Scene, Lou went off to work in Nashville with some of the top traditional artists of the day, Vince Gill and Vern Gosdin. He also decided to start his own band with lifelong friend Terry Baucom. The result was Lou Reid, Terry Baucom and Carolina. After putting out two very successful albums, Carolina Blue and Carolina Moon, Terry left the band to pursue his own career. In 1996, John Duffey passed away suddenly, leav-

ing the Seldom Scene without it’s heart and soul. Ben Eldridge wanted to keep the Scene on the map, and bringing Lou Reid in to take John’s place as mandolin player and tenor singer seemed the right thing to do. Lou has now been with the Seldom Scene for a combined total of 18 years. He has managed to not only keep his band Carolina current, but thriving. Lou is the consumate professional, a generous bandleader, and an all around entertainer. His vocal work on his latest album, Calling Me Back Home, is a testament to the depth and feeling that have always been the underlying trademark of his music. Christy Reid has been a

member of Lou Reid and Carolina since 2002. She first joined the band as guitar player, moving to bass in 2005. Her family has a long history in the Union Grove area as being pickers and singers. Music was a part of most aspects of her life…church, family gatherings, weekends spent at festivals. Her grandfather, Dewey Dowell, was a well known old time fiddler, who won the first several fiddler’s conventions at Union Grove. Her first cousin Kent Dowell was the banjo player for many years for Charlie Waller and the Country Gentlemen. As teenagers, Christy and her cousins formed a little family band, and along with help from Aunt Lois Shumaker and

Uncle Franklin Rash, they played shows all over North Carolina. Christy enjoyed playing fiddler’s conventions and into her early twenties played shows with 220 Connection out of Seagrove, NC as well as Southern Drive out of Lexington, NC. Late in 2001, Christy auditioned for Lou Reid, joining the band in February of 2002. Lou and Christy married in St. Augustine, Florida on April 12, 2004. Christy is the bass player for the band, providing lead and tenor vocals and handling most of the emcee work. Trevor Watson came from a musical family and was indoctrinated into the world of bluegrass at an early age. His Dad and Mom both played the banjo, along with other musical instruments and would have pickin parties. His Dad would always say Trevor had no choice but to love bluegrass, because he had absorbed so much through osmosis. Trevor began playing banjo at age eight when his Dad built him a small-scale banjo. Before joining Lou Reid and Carolina, Trevor performed with Blue Night, Foxfire Unlimited, and was a cast member at The Carolina Opry in Myrtle Beach. Trevor has anchored down Lou Reid’s sound on banjo for the last five years, also singing on the quartets.

Trevor is the backbone of the band, keeping trips lively, and always being the consumate professional. Kevin Richardson joined Lou Reid and Carolina in 2002. From 2002 until 2008 he held down the guitar role along with his fantastic lead and bass singing in the quartets. After a stint as guitarist for the Larry Stephenson Band, Kevin is back playing lead guitar with the same flair Lou’s fans have come to know as a part of his sound. Kevin also fronts his own group, Kevin Richardson and Cutting Edge, and he has a new record out on Mountain Fever Records. Splitting his time between the two groups is no problem for Kevin, a strong vocalist and instrumentalist. He began playing guitar as a child, and quickly became a fiddler convention favourite, racking up trophies all along the East Coast. Lou, Trevor and Christy welcome him back to the band! Lou Reid and Carolina will be performing two 45-minute sets at the Carleton Place Curling Club, 120 Patterson Cres. in Carleton Place, on Saturday, Oct. 27. The doors will open at 7:30 and the show starts at 9 p.m. Admission is $30 and tickets are available at Legends Records in Ottawa and at SRC Music (cash only) in Carleton Place.

Local Chrysler Dealer

OVERSTOCKED 2012 DODGE JOURNEYS Town & Country Chrysler in Smiths Falls, Ontario, has over 40 NEW Dodge Journey’s in stock. Owner Brad Kyle has instructed his sales staff to move them out regardless of loss. They must go! We must sell them off to make room for our 2013 models.

LOW LOW INTEREST RATES Get great rates for up to 96 months Chrysler has never had a better selection of new product in their history, and, along with this great selection of new product, they have set the standard

for LOW INTEREST RATE FINANCING of each and every model. There has NEVER been a better time to purchase a new car or truck. Interest rates are

as low as 1.99% for 36 months and you can now choose for the first time in our history a 96 month term at only 4.79%. It doesn’t get any better than this!!!

CONSUMER CASH Up to $9,750 on select new vehicles There has never been a better time that each and every one of us can’t use a little extra cash in our pockets. Chrysler Canada is giving up to $9,750 in

Consumer Cash on your purchase of select new vehicles. Vehicles have never been cheaper and interest rates have never been better to

purchase a new Chrysler car or truck. Quantity is limited and quality is at a premium. Take advantage of the best purchase options in our history.

Inflated Auction Prices Force dealers to Over Pay for Trade-Ins In the not too recent past, automotive leasing was the driving force in providing Canadian Retail Auto Industry with a steady stream of top quality used retail vehicles. Leasing customers loved the leasing option because it meant they could drive a new vehicle every 2 to 4 years. What this meant for the auto industry was that stocking a dealer’s prospective used car and

truck inventory with top quality used product was never an issue. You simply purchased what you needed at your local dealer auction whenever stock ran low. Well folks, that has all changed. Leasing disappeared and so did the abundance of late model used vehicles. As a result, we in the auto industry are seeing the smallest supply of good used product in history. What this means for you as a consumer is

the highest trade value ever. With the industry shortage, used vehicles have never retained their value as they presently do. There has never been a better time to trade your vehicle. Top dollar value, cash back up to $9,750 and interest rates as low as 1.9%... it just doesn’t get any better! Take advantage of the best time in consumers history to drive a new Chrysler car or truck.

REAL to present How to Build a Cedar Rail Fence Workshop constructed around REAL’s Community Garden, demonstrating three designs of fence, including the particularly attractive sheep fence. During this workshop, participants will practice three styles of fence, and construct the remaining side around the garden. The workshop starts at 10 a.m. and runs until 3:30 or 4 p.m. Participants need to wear good work shoes or boots, work gloves and weather appropriate clothes, and bring their own lunch. REAL will provide hot and cold drinks and snacks. There is a fee of

$35 and participants must register in advance by emailing sbrandum@cogeco.ca or calling 613-283-9500. Given the huge popularity in the past, this is first come, first served.

Local Food Matters Coalition plans free workshops EMC News - There are an alarming number of residents in Leeds, Grenville and Lanark who don’t eat enough fruits and vegetables. According to the Canadian Community Health Survey (CCHS) 2007, 60.9 per cent of LGL residents eat less than five servings of vegetables and fruit and 59.9 per cent of LGL residents are overweight or obese. Because of this, the Food Matters coalition has identified food skills workshops as a strategy to provide skills for residents to increase access to healthy food as well as to increase access to food sources for low income residents in the

area. Earlier in the year, the coalition held a workshop teaching residents to grow their own food even if they did not have a garden or yard. This workshop was so popular that another workshop has been planned for October to help preserve that harvest safely and to make a start on next year’s garden. Making the most of local harvest is the topic of the workshops being held in Brockville on Oct. 13 and in Smiths Falls on Oct. 20. Find out what to do with some of the fall harvest that is plentiful this time of year such as pumpkins, squash and apples. Learn food preservation

techniques such as canning, drying and freezing. There is limited space so register today at http://brockvillelocalharvest.eventbrite.com/ or http://sflocalharvest.eventbrite.com/. The workshops are being held in the morning at the Loaves and Fishes building in Brockville and the Smiths Falls Community Health Centre. Light refreshments will be available. For more information about the workshop or access to food in general, contact the Health Unit at 1-800-660-5853 or visit www.healthunit.org.

Shake up those decoys!

Don’t head into the woods until your weapons have been cleaned and adjusted.

Cleaning and calibrating There are many preparations to take care of before a hunting trip, but taking care of your firearm should definitely take priority. Don’t go into the woods with your gun until you’ve cleaned it and calibrated your sights. This could be the decisive factor in a successful hunting trip. Investing in a boresighter is always a good idea. This will allow you to adjust your scope before your practice shots and will limit the number of bullets you’ll need for your final adjustments. If your scope ever goes out of focus during a hunting trip, this tool will allow you to make

YUKON NGE Z A BL E ORA O CAM

a temporary adjustment with enough accuracy to shoot big game. The best thing to do is focus your scope at a practice range so that your weapon is adjusted properly to your eye, your position, and your shooting technique. Perhaps even more important than the adjustment of the sights and scope is making sure that your weapon is in good working condition. This is why it is always a good idea to have it checked and adjusted by a gunsmith. These experts are very busy in the weeks preceding the hunting season, so be sure to have your gun checked and repaired during the summer rather than waiting for the fall.

day. You may have to start the same process all over again the following day. Making the effort to move around a couple dozen decoys between two flights of geese can often make a big difference to the success of the hunt. Try not to look at it as a

burden: positioning the decoys is part of the pleasure of the hunt. A sense of satisfaction will come with your success, especially when you can quickly find the right layout for the day. No pain, no gain, as the saying goes!

Salt licks for moose The moose is the horselike king of northern forests. Some areas have larger populations than others, but hunters should always prepare their territory so that there are moose in the area when the hunting season opens. Using salt licks is a good way to attract these majestic animals. Salts and minerals are essential nutritional elements for the moose’s metabolism. Consequently, salt licks are favourite haunts for moose. Here are a few simple tricks to ensure that your salt lick is effective. The location of the salt lick is a major factor in its effectiveness. The best sites are near streams, marshes, rivers, or lakes that are frequented by moose. The proximity of a body of water is always preferable, as the salt makes the animals thirsty. In addition, it’s important to understand the animal’s morphology. Moose have very long legs and short necks. Licking a block of salt

There is no magic recipe for successful hunting. Beyond the basic rules such as ethical behavior, good camouflage, and weapon safety, most of it comes down to luck and good aim. What can differentiate an amateur from a successful hunter is the ability to adapt to the weather, the surroundings, and the behaviour of your game. In goose hunting, for example, many hunters tend to position their decoys in the same way every time, placing them in a large C or J formation. Sometimes, however, birds don’t land where you thought they would. That is why it is important to change the layout of your decoys until you’ve found the ideal arrangement for that particular

Salts and minerals are essential elements for the moose’s metabolism. that is lying on the ground is not ideal, as moose will have to either kneel down or spread their legs in order to reach it. For this reason, moose prefer food that is higher off the ground. Leave salt licks on old tree stumps, for example, so that they are within easy reach. Even

better, the salt will impregnate the stump and the surrounding soil. There are different types of salt licks available in stores, including pure salt or salt mixed with iodine, sulphur, and molasses. Try the different kinds in order to find the one that the moose in your area prefer.

The search for the perfect deer hunting ground The first steps to successful deer hunting are finding the right territory and choosing the right spot to lie in wait for your game. Several factors have to be taken into consideration before setting up your blind. Before you even explore your territory, examine the relevant topographical maps to get an idea of which areas the animals are likely to travel through. A pass between two steep hills opening onto a plain could be a well-travelled deer route. The next step is to walk the territory in the early spring, as soon as the snow has melted and before the leaves appear on the trees. This will let you detect anything that might have happened in the area since the previous fall. If the deer wintered over in local feeding areas, you’ll be able to see the trails used by your game. The absence of leaves on the trees will give you enough visibility to detect deer rubs made by male deer with their antlers.

These, as well as the scrapes where bucks pawed the ground during the rut to attract females, should be noted on your map or your GPS so you can find them again during hunting season. When scouting for deer, bear in mind that these trails, rubs, and scrapes are often used year after year, especially if the local buck has survived the latest hunting season and winter. It is also important to have more than one hunting site or blind, depending on deer traffic, terrain, and wind direction. Don’t forget that knowing the direction of the prevailing wind is essential

HUNTING IN ONTARIO

A pass between two steep hills opening onto a plain could be a well-travelled deer route.

In Ontario, the money from hunter licence fees contributes to monitoring and protecting wildlife

so as not to be detected by the deer. In September, or during the weeks preceding the opening of the hunting season, make the most of any nice days to complete

your exploration of the terrain and set up your blinds. If your chosen site is no longer frequented by deer, you’ll have to adapt to the situation and scout for another promising spot.

Ontario recognizes two types of resident hunters: gun hunters and non-gun hunters. Gun Hunting - The Class H1 Outdoors Card allows hunting with all the methods permitted under the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act (guns, archery and falconry). To qualify for a H1 Outdoors Card, the applicant must provide proof of passing both the Ontario Hunter Education Course exam and the Canadian Firearms Safety Course exam. Non-Gun Hunting - The Class H2 Outdoors Card allows hunting with all the methods permitted under the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act except guns (primarily archery and falconry). To qualify for a H2 Outdoors Card, the applicant must provide proof of passing the Ontario Hunter Education Course exam.

Expressive Arts Bereavement Groups for Children, Teens and Adults starts this month By JULIE McINTYRE

EMC News - Community Home Support-Lanark County is once again offering expressive arts bereavement groups for children, teens and adults beginning in late September 2012. These groups run for eight consecutive weeks at the Perth office facilitated by Julie McIntyre, an experienced art therapist together with professional hospice volunteers. Although there is no charge for the service donations are gratefully accepted. These groups are for anyone who has experienced a significant loss in their life and would like to try a new way of working with the grief using expressive arts modalities including visual arts, poetry, drama, movement, games, journaling, mask and doll making and storytelling. Past participants have commented that they were able to express difficult emotions without needing to find the words and also were able to view the situation from a different perspective as a result of the art speaking to them. Comments have included that taking risks to enter into the expressions through art has been a stretch at times but also a period of extended growth

and integration. Groups are maintained between 6 to 10 participants. Expressive therapy, also known as creative arts therapy, uses creative arts such as music, dance, drama, and writing as a form of therapy. The most important concept behind the use of expressive therapy is that using the imagination to create art helps promote mental and physical healing. When this type of therapy is used as treatment, the act of creating is given more importance than producing a completed work of art. It is the process of the art making where the healing occurs rather than on the end product.The creative arts are a powerful tool for us to restore, repair and renew. Expressive arts therapy is also about experiencing the natural capacity of creative expression and creative community for healing. When we work through art we allow expressions of feelings that there may be no words for or where there have already been too many words such as discussion of a loss. It is the process of the art making that is the true healing experience. There is no requirement to be an artist to participate and no judgement of the art. Art making provides oppor-

tunities to share and view the story of loss from a different perspective. An open mind and a willingness to take risks are the only prerequisites. Children have always used art and play as a means of coping with events and emotions beyond their control. Adults may find it more difficult to engage in the creative process so freely. But when we do let go, we are assuming an active role rather than a passive one over our experience. When art is made in response to a grief experience, a person learns to practice control over the experience that may be otherwise difficult to accept. This active response is empowering as it increases a sense of control, hopefully providing a realization that you have a choice in how you relate to your experience. Having choices is empowering! This freedom of choice as well as the experience of sharing with others in a similar situation can boost self-esteem and self-confidence as well as form connections that help integrate the experience of loss as a journey that others are also sharing. The use of expressive arts in grief and bereavement work has many beneficial effects and can promote healing, in-

tegration and connection in a group setting. Members of the group have experienced different types of losses and this brings an inclusive richness that enables others to understand that we all live with loss in our lives. Everyone is encouraged to use the art making within the group for their own healing and to continue the process at home after the completion of the

Here are more basic debt-elimination strategies: • Complete a detailed financial review Agree on financial life goals that both of you share, understand.

Ways to lower car insurance rates at any age Auto insurance is a major expense in a household budget. While it’s mandatory to have insurance, overpaying is not necessary. There are simple ways of getting a more affordable auto insurance rate, regardless of age or driving experience. NEW DRIVERS Use of a ‘good student discount’ is one way to save on insurance for a young driver. Many insurance companies offer a discount for students who carry a minimum required grade average. Another way to save is by taking a driver education course from an approved school; to learn the rules of the

road. Be sure to inquire about these options, as they may not always be advertised. DRIVERS OVER 25 There may have been some improvement in yearly premiums for drivers with some driving experience. Don’t forget to also ask about further discounts. These may include: installing a security system, driving an eco-friendly car, or installing safety features such as winter tires. If recently married, combine policies with your spouse and take advantage of bulk discounting by having more than one car insured with the company. EXPERIENCED DRIVERS An experienced driver with a good driving record may be eligible for better insurance rates; the key is to find the insurance company that will offer the lowest rate. Shopping around for car insurance is the easiest way to find a better way. Other ways

to save include changing your deductible – perhaps carrying a higher deductible; or, combining home and auto insurance policies with the same insurance company. DRIVERS OVER 55 YEARS Mature drivers over 55 years old may qualify for some of the best rates available. Some insurance companies across Canada specialize in getting the best rates for mature drivers. There are also retirement benefits to keep in mind: no commute distance may mean a lower rate. Make sure the insurance company changes the commuting status to pleasure use. MORE TIPS Remember to review your policy frequently. Tickets come off your driving record in three years from the date that you are convicted and accidents come off in six years. If a ticket or accident has come off your driving record,

check with your insurance company to make sure you’re not still paying for that ticket or accident. If you drive an older car, you may want to remove the collision coverage if you feel that it’s not worth the extra yearly cost to compensate you for your vehicle value. This will reduce your insurance premium. Many car insurance companies may actually offer a lower rate to drivers who pay their premium in full on renewal than to those who choose to pay in installments. Monthly payments often come with fees that are charged on each installment. Paying the whole thing up front is a quick and simple way to pay less. No matter how old you are, it is always a good idea to shop around for a better rate. Quoting sites like ComparaSave.com help drivers find the lowest insurance rate available within their network of over 30 insurance companies.

Not dealing with it is not an option,” Stewart said. Audience members asked Stewart for his thoughts on the prospect of shortened hours and whether or not Parks Canada should continue to be the regulatory body for the waterway. “I think the season can be shortened,” Stewart later added of future management. “It really suggests an expanded collaborative model.” He elaborated by saying how the maintenance of the Rideau Canal is achieved may change, but he couldn’t foresee the government allowing world heritage designation to be removed due to a loss of See CANAL page SF4

EMC News - The Rideau Roundtable will shortly begin planning a Rideau Canal forum for 2013 aimed at wrestling with what the future of the historic waterway will be and how all stakeholders can be part of it. This announcement was made by Peter Au, president of the Rideau Roundtable (RRT) during a Sept. 19 fundraiser at Hotel Kenney in Jones Falls. The dinner event aimed to raise funds for youth participation along the Rideau Canal during the Capital to Capitol by Canoe trip. “So they can carry the torch and spread those ideas,” Au said. The Capital to Capitol event aims to increase the awareness of river protection and stewardship. It launched from Ottawa’s Victoria Island on Sept. 5. Doug Stewart, former superintendent of Parks Canada and keynote speaker, supported the idea of creating youth engage-

ment opportunities along the canal, noting the ability to experience the historic waterway as it was in 1862 is still very much available thanks to past stewardship. “The Rideau Canal, I think, provides us that opportunity to provide that type of engagement,” Stewart said. “We have not even started to tap into the real potential of the Rideau Canal. We can do a lot with World Heritage status.” The RRT member and university heritage professor is concerned with the future appetite of tomorrow’s Canadians in protecting historic assets like the canal. In 1870 debate in the House of Commons took place on whether to abandon the canal once rail took over transportation, but shortly recreation took its place. “That’s why it survived because people valued it,” Stewart added. “Let’s face it, we’ve got to have somebody to pass the torch to.” The Rideau Canal has the distinction of three designa-

EMC Events - Event organizers are making last-minute preparations for the free Culture Days weekend to be held Sept. 28-30 in Smiths Falls and Montague Township. The weekend begins on Friday morning at Heritage House Museum near Old Sly’s Locks with All the World’s An Egg, an exhibit starting at 9 a.m., exploring various cultures that participate in eggery that also lets children decorate and create their own eggs in a kid’s corner. Saturday morning from 9 a.m. brings open house events in Montague at Bill Dobson’s Agricultural Museum on Matheson Drive and at the Montague Aviation Museum at the Russell Beach-Smiths Falls airport. A short walk down the airport flight line is Classic Wings- a display piston- and jet-powered aircraft. The agricultural museum will also be putting together a display of 1812 artifacts. Dobson is proud to have the many tools of Lanark County heritage in his museum, saying “I define a tool as an extension of your body.” The highlight of the day will be a special presentation by Hans Alfred, a collector of antique tools and flax processing. Alfred will demonstrate flax dressing by elaborating on the different historic processes involved in extracting fibres to prepare them for spinning as linen. An hour later, two more venues join Heritage House for the enjoyment of audiences. Eggery is in the House again for those who missed out on Friday. At the western edge of downtown Smiths Falls, the Railway Museum of Eastern Ontario begins its hour-long, hands-on workshop on Making a Wooden Whistle and opens the Art Explosion exhibit of the works of local artists.

Physician recruitment update Next week Bob Cheetham, director of economic development will be at various eastern Ontario physician recruitment fairs on behalf of Smiths Falls at an in-budget cost of $7,500 to $10,000. Local doctors will also attend the fairs in Ottawa and Kingston. He is asking for a physician recruitment budget line item to be added in 2013 for the job to cover hotel accommodations and meals for prospective doctors who will be visiting the town. The turn-key clinic is moving along well with plans for a December 2012- late January 2013 opening. Local doctors have offered to welcome a couple of new doctors into the practice earlier until the facility opens if recruitment efforts are successful. The mayor directed staff to flow the $100,000 approved for the clinic to the hospital.

Special COW next week A special committee-of-the-whole meeting will begin at 4:30 p.m. next Monday, Oct. 1 to deal with an alteration to a heritage designated building and a parking meter tender.

Violence monument Councillors were asked for their support on the Lanark County violence against women monument proposed for Stewart Park in Perth. The Perth location was selected as that community has agreed to manage the grass and site. The monument will provide awareness of the issue and remind those in abusive relationships that their Lanark County community supports a safe environment for them. So far, two female artists have been contracted to complete the work and a private business is sponsoring the creation of benches. It is hoped this monument will serve as a location for future vigils. The Sexual Assault Domestic Violence Advisory Committee hopes for a ribbon cutting in the fall next year.

Rick St. Dennis, director of community and social services, informed councillors that three expressions of interest were received for the re-pointing of the Station Theatre. They have been invited to tender the project.

A presentation was made this week showing a preliminary seismic screening test on the facility by Genivar, which concluded the floor was not to be used as it is currently. Erin Watson, chief building official, agreed, but added any replacement of the floor would have to meet standards of today (post disaster status). Other repairs to the entrance, or if the walls required repair, would have to meet the standards from the date of their original building. Further information will be brought forward.

Welcome Centre Councillors asked staff to price out the cost to replace the porch at 140 Elmsley St. as part of the Welcome Centre project. “From a budgetary perspective it would be astronomical,” said Mallory.

Cast your vote starting next week to fill Smiths Falls’ pool By STACEY ROY sroy@perfprint.ca

EMC News - It takes many drops of water to fill a pool and, in the case of the effort to bring public access to the Gallipeau Centre pool, it will take many votes as well. Organizers estimate about 100 people turned out last Thursday, Sept. 20 with just a couple days’ notice to visually demonstrate their support for a community pool at the Gallipeau Centre (former Rideau Regional Centre). “I think everyone was really excited about the support the community showed,” remarked Rob Rodine, member of The Hub - a grass roots group hoping to open a multiservice facility, including the pool. The Hub hopes this support continues in the form of electronic votes for the project in this year’s Aviva Community Fund process. How it works is project coordinators submit their ideas on a website and the greater public has an opportunity to register online (www.avivacommunityfund. org) and vote. The projects

EMC News – On Sept. 12 at about 12:46 a.m. it is alleged that police attended a residence on Lanark Street in regards to a noise complaint. On arrival police could hear loud music coming from within the residence despite several recent warnings by police regarding excessive noise. A 28 year-old Smiths Falls woman was issued a summons for create/permit noise under the Smiths Falls By-

with the most votes and most favourable judging results receive an allocation of the $1 million available this year, but competition is stiff. “The more people who demonstrate that we want this the more likely we are to get it,” Rodine said.

$99,000 of funding for renovation work. Voting on the project begins Oct. 1 at www.avivacommunityfund. org. In the case of the local pool project the financial request is for $99,000, which will be exclusively used to do necessary repairs and upgrades to the existing facility. Specifically, the pool needs to be resurfaced, painted and have its drains and decking replaced.

Plans are also to upgrade the change rooms with new fixtures and fresh paint. A new element under consideration is to convert the existing pool from a chlorinated facility to a salt water system, which will help those with skin and eye sensitivities.

“We’d be able to make that available to a whole wide array of people,” Rodine said. If successful The Hub still has a ways to go before it celebrates a grand opening to its proposed centre. Rodine confirmed more funding will need to be secured in order to get the centre up and running and no date has been set for an opening. However, The Hub is currently investigating other funding opportunities saying their ultimate goal is a self-sustainable facility. “It’s feasible; we just need the support and the funding,” Rodine said. The best way for the community to show their support is to begin voting for the town’s project entitled ‘fill the pool’ online beginning Oct. 1. A total of three rounds of public voting will take place from Oct. 1 to Nov. 26. In each of these rounds registered members will have 15 votes each to put towards the project of their choosing. On Dec. 3 we will know which 90 projects will go on to the semi-final round where individuals will again have 15 votes they can use from Dec. 3-12. The winner will be announced Jan. 29, 2013. It’s important to note that each registrant can only vote once a day for a single project, so book mark the Aviva page and keep going back to show your support for the pool!

heritage values. “It’s inconceivable to me that the government would do that,” he said. It is possible for any world heritage site to lose its status though it is very rare. Pam Buell, Parks Canada spokesperson and one of the key staff members involved in the designation effort, confirmed the first periodic report to UNESCO on the condition of the canal is due in July 2013. Don Marrin, superintendent of Parks Canada attended last Wednesday’s presentation and seemed interested in the idea of collaboration. “I think there’s a role for Parks Canada and others in terms of the future,” Marrin said. He was pleased to see so many people out and the offers of volunteer support going forward, saying their presence is a testament to the importance of the Rideau Canal in the lives of those who live along it. “It shows the passion and commitment for the Rideau Canal,” he added. “If this is going to work in the future we need a commitment from a lot of people. Just look at the experience in this room.” M e r r i c k v i l l e - Wo l f o r d mayor Doug Struthers was in attendance as was mayor Ron Holman of Rideau Lakes Township. Struthers supported Stewart’s belief that heritage

Record News - Your Community Newspaper

should be first and foremost when it comes to the canal, which he said opened up a safe route for supplies and made Canada the “true north strong and free.” When asked about his thoughts on a stand-alone corporation to operate the canal the mayor said “That might be.” At the very least he would like the government to take some more time when looking at the canal and any possible cuts in recognition of its historic importance and economic driver in many communities. China’s Grand Canal While Canada struggles with the future of its historic canal, other countries are positioning their waterways to become direct competition. China’s Grand Canal is the longest and oldest canal in the world. Stretching over 2,000 km from north to south, the building of this canal took about 2,000 years and was done in sections. Today’s Grand Canal is not only a busy transportation route but also acts as an irrigation system. “The Chinese have big plans for tourism related to the canal,” Stewart said. To gauge their seriousness, the Chinese Cultural minister has signed legislation effective Oct. 1, 2012 known as the Grand Canal Heritage Protection and Management Regulations. This week the world has gathered there for the annual

World Canal conference and it is expected China will apply for World Heritage Status in the near future. “World Heritage is not only precise wealth left by our ancestors, but also an important responsibility for us,” said Lin Difu, Minister Counselor of Culture in the Embassy of the People’s Republic of China who took part in last week’s Jones Falls event. Since the 1990s China has worked to protect a number of cultural relics spending more than $100 million Canadian dollars in the process. Stewart has traveled to China and seen the Grand Canal for himself and noted one astounding similarity between this and our Rideau Canal. In the section of the Grand Canal built around the same time as the Rideau Canal the system of masonry was identical. The Rideau Canal’s inscription as a world heritage site includes recognition of the genius of design it represents. Back in 1825 Col. John By used the steps he saw in the falls as inspiration to create a leveled system that would rise up to gently take boats down from Kingston to Ottawa. Using limited tools and at great risk they achieved this canal as one singular project. “All of that was accomplished in six years. If you were to approach that today you wouldn’t do the environmental assessment in six years,” Stewart said.

Hospital able to purchase two scopes thanks to generosity of foundation By STAFF

EMC News - The Perth and Smiths Falls District Hospital was the recipient of funding from the foundation last week as a cheque for $91,000 was presented to the facility. “This will purchase two colonoscopes,� said Linda Bisonette, interim president and CEO of the hospital. “We do about 1,200 to 1,500 procedures a year and we have four scopes now, but we replace them with great

regularly.� The new scopes will allow the doctor to visualize the results right away from a video screen, instead of having to peer into the end of the scope. Funds were provided to the hospital by the Smiths Falls Community Hospital Foundation thanks to ongoing events, like the golf tournament, man auction, and the Christmas tree of lights. “It’s not just the results from one event,� Bisonette says of the collection of

funds. “It’s all the little things that go on throughout the year that keeps the hospital in the forefront of the community’s mind. We get great support from the entire community.â€? The fundraising is cumulative efforts, she added. “It’s the actions and the success of all these fundraisers we host throughout the year and it’s about fellowship and fun‌ we are keeping visible in the community and that’s a big part of our fundraising success.â€?

Falls Community Health Centre hosts a Chinese Cooking demonstration by Daisy Au of the Chinese and Canadian Heritage Cultural Association. The latter event can only be attended by pre-registering since space is limited to 15 people, who will get to sample what’s cooking near the end of this two-hour event. At 11 a.m. the Smiths Falls & District Public Library hosts Brenda Chapman’s Young Writers’ short story workshop, a one-hour event for children 9 to 12 years of age, also requiring pre-registration. Simultaneously, over on Victoria Avenue, the Station Theatre cracks open a pantomime rehearsal. On their way into the Station Theatre and after the rehearsal, audiences can check out two exhibitions in the lofty lobby. Wood carver, Robert Kerr will be there with examples of his works and student art will be on display from the Smiths Falls & District Collegiate Institute. Both exhibitions will be open until 4 p.m. At the Smiths Falls Memorial Community Centre, in the second floor hall, the Chinese Autumn Festival starts at 11:30 a.m. This popular lunar harvest festival celebrated by Chinese, Korean and Vietnamese people lasts until 3 p.m. Come at 12:30 p.m. back to the Station Theatre, area songwriters and poets Vine Rhymes presents 90 minutes of original

Audiences will also get a chance to sample ethnic foods and flavours that they may have never tried before. From 1 to 3 p.m., two more workshops will be held at the Railway Museum and Heritage House. At the former, participants to Preserving Your Heritage will learn easy and inexpensive methods of storing family photographs, papers and other archival materials. Bringing in an old photo or print will lead to learning how to cut mat board and prepare an image for framing. At the latter, the Trace Your Immigration Roots workshop will focus on using local and international records through tutorials and hands-on research. At Kinsmen Park on Beckwith Street from 1:30 to 2 p.m. a Tai Chi Demonstration takes place but only if it does not rain.

Interior work now under way at Villa Montague By STACEY ROY sroy@perfprint.ca

Submitted photo

This is an artist’s conception of the front facade of the new Villa Montague on the Rideau on Hwy. 43. The left side of this drawing will be the facing of the exist-

ing building on the site, while the building and turret will be built on the now demolished site.

ples with diverse care needs as well as snowbirds who fly south for the winter. “It’s as simple as turning keys and dropping them off to reception and coming back six months later,” she added of the option of moving in earlier in life. “The sooner they get in the more relationships they make in and around the community.” While snowbirds are away the management company will ensure the unit is ready for the owner’s return. Another worry-free feature includes the shuttle service

struction. McEachern is now accepting reservations for these units, which requires a refundable down payment. When it comes to the financials, Villa Montague is offering two options to its future residents: rent or lease. The rental option is standard with a set amount due per month for the housing unit and all ‘a la carte’ services available at an extra charge. All residents will have access to facility amenities such as a wading pool, spacious dining room, lounge, pub, hair

to town for residents of Villa Montague. The development project doesn’t have a minimum age requirement as they recognize tragic circumstances or illness may require the need for these services much earlier in life. Currently, interior renovations to the existing facility where 10 standards units are moving forward with occupancy expected to begin as of March 2013. During construction residents who continue to live at the facility will be moved to temporary housing on site for the duration of con-

salon/barber shop, and outdoor living space to name a few. The facility is also offering a unique concept – life leases – following the Manitoba legislation. This concept welcomes individuals to pay for the right to live in their unit up front (in the range of the price of a home). This gives them the right to live there as long as they wish, the right to rent it or sell it at any time. McEachern noted the units can also be handed down from parents to children. “You can buy for your family’s future,” the broker said.

EMC Business - Work to renovate the interior 10-unit space within the remaining Hwy. 43 building has begun while talks at the political level continue regarding whether the four-phase Villa Montague project will receive town services or not. The importance of town water and septic services for the Villa Montague project is crucial, according to Barbara McEachern, broker with Keller Williams who is working with Assaly Asset Management Corporation on the overall project. Without services the project will become 35 units with a total of 20 jobs, but with the services this grows to 185 units with the potential for 100 jobs. “If it makes it to the final phase it will be spectacular,” McEachern said. “There’s nothing like this out there.” The Villa Montague vision is to provide a client-centred facility where the individual has the freedom to choose what services they pay for and when they need them. What they will offer residents is a rate per unit with ‘a la carte’ services such as housekeeping, nurses and meals available for an additional fee. McEachern says she is excited to bring this option to the region as it will appeal to cou-

Under this purchase option the resident would have a $200 to $300 maintenance fee per month that would cover and repair needs right down to replacing a light bulb. Utilities are included. Following next spring’s first occupancy date, work on the second phase will begin including construction of a new wing in the area where demolition took place this year. Construction of this new 40-unit segment is expected to begin next spring with an anticipated December 2013 occupancy. At this time the front facade will be undertaken in the stone and siding design. At this point the project will stop if town services are not available. If an agreement can be reached the plans will continue to add another 25-unit wing on the back of the facing facility. This structure will be adjacent to a clubhouse with deck. The fourth and final phase will be the construction of a waterfront condo building where another 110 units will be located. If services can’t be hooked up this land will be used for a septic system. Incamera discussions continue to take place at town council, but no further updates have been made to date.

Looking Back 100 YEARS AGO – SEPTEMBER 26, 1912 One of the oldest residents of Smiths Falls passed away at her home in the west end this morning in the person of Mrs. Duncan McKay, sr. For the past five or six months she had been confined to her room, but notwithstanding the weight of 85 years and the gradual giving out of life’s delicate mechanism she continued quite bright and cheerful until the end. She was born in Lanark County, her parents being among the pioneers of the country back of Perth. In Tuesday’s issue the Record stated that there was every likelihood that Mr. Robert Trench of Teeswater would build a new skating rink at Smiths Falls. He was then in town negotiating for the land and that evening bought it through Mrs. Gardiner. He bought two lots fronting on Winnifred street running right through to Herbert street or four lots 66x-132 feet. 50 YEARS AGO – SEPTEMBER 27, 1962 Several citizens were startled here on Tuesday when they saw what appeared to be a boat-train passing through the Rideau Canal locks. They were correct - it was a boat-train. Owned by the Simpson Marine and Dredging Company of Brockville, the “train” consisted of three tug boats and four huge barges carrying cranes, shovels, dredging and diving equipment. It had left Ottawa last Thursday and was heading for Brockville and then Lindsay. It was expected the flotilla would arrive at its home port late next week. The 70 blind persons in Lanark County, including 11 in Smiths Falls, will be depending on the outcome of next Monday night’s “Blind Blitz” to determine what free services can be provided for them this year. D.R. Morrow, County Campaign Chairman, announced this week that an objective of $2, 500 has been set for the blitz. 25 YEARS AGO – SEPTEMBER 30, 1987 The results of two studies looking into the feasibility of a Rideau Canal Museum may bring a world-class museum closer to reality. The studies, currently underway, are aimed at finding just how much money can be raised by the private sector of Smiths Falls and what can be done with the existing buildings in the Woods Mill complex, said Dr. David Baird, representing the museum corporation. What to do with our garbage is a problem that has recently been heaped on the shoulders of local municipalities. Today, most of Canada’s garbage is buried in holes in the ground. But waste management expert and founder of WCI Waste Conversion Corporation, Joe Kennedy, says “if we continue to bury our waste we are looking toward a future full of potential environmental problems.” 10 YEARS AGO –SEPTEMBER 25, 2002 The Bears are back. The new Smiths Falls Jr. A Bears, back from a two-year hibernation, return to action at the Memorial Community Centre — dubbed ‘The Bears’ Den’ — this Friday, Sept. 27. Forget about hoarding all that chocolate for fear the local Hershey plant closes down. On Wednesday, Sept. 18 the chairman of the Hershey charitable trust fund in Pennsylvania announced the potential company sale to rivals was finally off. Two life-saving heroes say Sunday’s rescue near Jasper could easily have ended more tragically. “We’re just happy we got to her when we did. Thirty seconds later and it would have been a lot different,” said Edmonds lockstation attendant Don Morrow. He and his Parks Canada co-worker, Ron Hyland, have been credited with saving the life of Barrhaven resident and non-swimmer Gloria Badua who had fallen into the water while gathering snails.

Unlocking the artist within EMC Editorial - Art is everywhere, from the traditional methods of paint or pen to paper to creating the perfect atmosphere in a living room. I recently renewed my appreciation for this while working the Merrickville Artists’ Guild Studio Tour. When it comes to creating pictures I would have to be an impressionist artist since paint balls against a white sheet would be the extent of my artistic ability in that regard. Yep, it’s no wonder I stick to words, but my frustration with the tactile arts has only enhanced my awe of those who do it. I found myself last week-

For the Record STACEY ROY end having to remind myself of the time and the fact that I couldn’t see every studio on the tour. My awe of artists is a very humbling thing, until one painter I did meet on the tour told me everyone is an artist. She said humans were driven to create in some way as part of their DNA. I thought about that during my drive back to town and

came up with some examples in my own life. My mom gets her creativity out by designing her dream house on paper. I think she’s up to a dozen designs now (God help her if she ever wins the lottery and has to choose which one to build). Many people I know are creative in setting up their home decor, which has become a recent love of mine (HGTV is on permanent play at my place). Then there are the little guys like my daughter whose face glows when she is able to mix paint colours and paint on paper. I guess there is a little artist hidden in each of us.

Some have their inner artist closer to the surface and can create incredible pieces that they sell. Happily, enjoying the diversity of artistic talent out there doesn’t mean a trip to the city. This past summer Smiths Falls held its first studio tour with great success and the annual Heritage House Museum’s annual show and sale is starting Nov. 3. Last and this coming weekend, Merrickville’s studio tour is taking place from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. both days. Being surrounded by so much art is soothing to my soul and reminds me how lucky we are to live in this area.

Letters to the Editor

Volunteer effort appreciated: dog park DEAR EDITOR: On behalf of the Smiths Falls off-leash dog park, I would like to offer a big thank you to the The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in Smiths Falls. On Sept. 15 the church, as part of a Canada-wide day of service, undertook to clear brush and clean up the proposed site of the off-leash dog park located adjacent to the Civitan baseball diamonds at Lower Reach Park. They did a great job. The off-leash dog park will be a terrific addition to our community. Not only will it offer dog owners in town a place to allow their dogs to run and socialize, it will support tourism and residential growth efforts. The committee has been very appreciative of community

support for their efforts and this project from the church is a welcome beginning to the project. We all know of the spirit in Smiths Falls and that it’s second to none. Here we have a fine example of how our community continues to rise to all challenges! To the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints – thank you for your efforts and for being such an important part of our community. Sincerely, Jay Brennan (Council Liasion) Smiths Falls Off-Leash Dog Park Committee

This is all that remains of Debra Graham and Jeannette Churcher’s Pride flag after unknown individuals grabbed it off their flag pole and set it on fire in what is being called a hate crime. The O.P.P. are looking into this case.

Articles result in hate crime, readers says DEAR EDITOR: We are writing to you in response to two great articles in last week’s paper (Thursday, Sept. 20/12). The first article in the EMC: ‘Local leaders lend support to LGBT Lanark County antibullying campaign’ by you, Ryland Coyne. The second article was in the Smiths Falls Record News: ‘Pride Day events feature scavenger hunt, park picnic’ by Laurie Weir. It was great to see these positive articles in your papers. However, with most publications of such there results a backlash somewhere. We experienced the backlash. We believe that the publishing of these articles is what led to us experiencing a hate crime last Friday, Sept. 21 – between midnight and 1:30 a.m. Satur-

day, Sept. 22. This is when our 17-foot flagpole was pulled down, our Pride flag cut off and then set on fire and left in the ditch in front of our house. We want our neighbours and community to know that our flag didn’t just fall down. We want them to know that hate is alive in our community of Montague Township. This has been reported to the O.P.P., and is being taken very seriously. We will be repairing/replacing our flagpole and flag. No one will stop us from being ourselves.

Ron Lauzon (foreground) and Len Johnston (background) attended the annual Veterans’ Luncheon hosted by the Legion Women’s Auxiliary last Wednesday. The free lunch is a way for the Legion to thank Veterans past and present and share in camaraderie.

sroy@perfprint.ca

EMC News - Legion Week is an opportunity for the community to say thank you to Veterans who have served the country, but as the Record News learned, some veterans feel thanks is owed for the opportunity they were given to serve. “I just enjoyed it,” said Ron Lauzon, who served as a lineman working with a crew to ensure communication and utility lines were maintained for the Army, Navy and Air Force units at home and abroad. His time in uniform allowed him to see his country and parts of the world, including Cyprus, Germany and the Bahamas. Lauzon and his team of tradespeople were brought to the island to repair the large cedar foot posts that were snapped during a monsoon. The ability to see the world and receive training that would take him into a successful career with Bell Canada is why Lauzon strongly feels every Canadian should serve two years with the military. “For a young person the forces can be an amazing thing,” he added. “It’s almost like I’ve lived two lives.” Lauzon has just recently reached retirement age and shared lunch with Len John-

ston Sept. 19 at the annual veterans’ luncheon at Branch 95. Johnston has served a unique role with the Canadian Armed Forces in the air space reservation unit. “My playground was Canadian air space,” he said. The Smiths Falls Legionnaire and his co-workers were dedicated to co-ordinating the air space under Canadian skies for military exercises. Such a niche position has lent itself to a number of memorable experiences, including the 1985 event that is known as the worst terrorist strike in Canadian history. “I was the first person that was contacted for the Air India” incident, Johnston recalls. He was sitting in the same chair in 1962 when the Cuban Missile Crisis threatened nuclear war on the world. At that time he was the Canadian contact for the American forces who informed him they were on high alert and requested permission to divert planes in the air to Canada. “I turned them down and that became the policy for Canada,” Johnston said. This policy to require air space be reserved by outside countries would then change Sept. 11, 2001 when flights were diverted mid-flight to Pearson Airport from America.

Having a front seat for such notable world events was all part of a day’s work for Johnston who once again worked to organize air space in 1987 when America, European allies and Canada simultaneously pointed their aircraft at Russia to send a message of strength. “North America was blanketed with aircraft,” Johnston recalls. “They could see the forces that would be against them.” Sharing these stories of service among each other and the younger generation was the message legion vice president Stan Lasenba expressed during the luncheon. “We need you people to tell the younger people what the Legion is all about,” Lasenba said. He asked for veterans’ feedback on potential entertainment options they can host to draw more Legion members to the door. Lauzon finds it hard to see himself as a Veteran. “When I think of veterans I think of the First World War and Second World War. These people here, they are the ones who hid behind the gun,” Lauzon said looking out toward the audience of elder veterans. He added, Canada is very lucky to have never had a major armed conflict on its soil.

Peacefully at home July 13, 2012 age 81. Survived by loving wife of 59 years Anneliese (nee Lohner), and by children Carl and Phyllis. Grandchildren Andrew, Linda, Martin, Allison and Wil and Greatgranddaughter Meika. Karl Arrived in Canada from Germany in 1951, and called the Montreal area home for twenty-seven years, working as an executive with the contract furniture manufacturer “Henderson”. In 1978 he moved the family to the Kemptville area, and began making furniture. This eventually broadened into Oxford Furniture Ltd. (the plant located near Oxford Station Ontario) which, until the family business was sold in 2011, was a leading manufacturer of Solid Wood Furniture in Eastern Ontario. One of the plain spoken, hard working generation, you would not have known that his dream as a boy was to study math and become a teacher of Mathematics. Until his last years, he could still add a column of figures effortlessly in his head. Karl was a former Rotarian and a past President of the local Kemptville chapter, and member of the United Church of Canada. We will miss his advice and wisdom, but we will always live comforted by the happy memories.

Remembering you is easy, We do it every day, But missing you is a heartache, That never goes away. We hold you tightly within our hearts, And there you will remain, Life has gone on without you, But it never will be the same. For those who still have their moms, Treat her with tender care, You will never know the emptiness, As when you turn and she is not there. Sadly missed by Husband, Gary, Children, Gary and Yvonne, Terry and Tracy, Trish and all your grandchildren and great grandchildren

In tears we saw you sinking, And watched you pass away, Our hearts were almost broken, We wanted you to stay.

To all grandparents and victims of the social system -We the grandparents need to take a stand to bring back family values. We as grandparents have raised children and need to be given the respect we have earned. New parents, even if they wish to not have a relationship with their own mothers and fathers should not keep grandchildren from their grandparents. As grandparents, and the older generation, we have knowledge and experiences new parents don’t have as of yet. New parents seem to take advantage of us financially, through babysitting and more. When we wish to have a relationship with our grandchildren the favour is not returned. I make a plea to all grandparents to write a letter to us in support of grandparents everywhere -we need to be brought back into our grandchildren’s lives.

THE EMC - 57 - Thursday, September 27, 2012

NEWS

EMC - Your Community Newspaper

Fair measures in licenced premises should be law EMC Lifestyle - I wrote about the issue of fair measures in Ontario pubs and restaurants a number of years ago and received so much feedback I could hardly believe it. The e-mails from readers just poured in, by far the largest response I have had to any column. If I write about taxes, green energy, government imposed bans, official bilingualism, immigration or any issue of the day I expect to receive comments from readers. Sometimes the response fails to live up to expectations. But when I wrote about how common it is to be short changed on a “pint” of beer or glass of wine in a bar or restaurant in Ontario, the comments rolled in. People hate receiving short measures. It doesn’t happen everywhere of course. Many establishments are meticulous about how they serve drinks and they’re to be commended. Still, short measures are a regular occurrence in this province. Sometimes large glasses are used to cover the fact servers are dispensing various amounts and not what is advertised. In Ontario “pint glasses” are often anything but. Considering the ever increasing cost of beer, wine and spirits, customers have a right to expect a full measure. But with no rules in place to guarantee it there is no obligation on the part of establishments to use marked glasses to dispense beer, wine and spirits. We recently visited the United Kingdom where it is the law to serve a fair measure

Reflections JEFF MAGUIRE

in every licenced establishment. Britain is home to some of the oldest pubs in existence and there is an expectation of both good service and value for money. Bartenders and serving staff don’t expect tips either. I am told that is because they’re paid a fair wage, something that doesn’t happen in many places in North America. The Americans are notorious for underpaying servers and forcing them to live off tips. A slippery slope, especially in the present economy! Now I don’t want you to think we spend all our times in pubs when we visit the UK. Still, trekking over hill and dale or navigating the traffic in busy London is thirsty work. There is nothing like the British pub experience (it is rarely replicated here) and I freely admit we enjoy a drink or two at the end of the day. The same thing happens when we spend time with family and friends over there. After all, in England the pub is part of the fabric of the nation! Virtually everyone has their own “local” and it is common for the entire family to visit as often as practicable. The same is true of Ireland and other European countries. I can’t vouch for every nation in Europe. But in the UK no self-respecting bartender

would dare serve a short measure. There is an act in place which governs the amounts served and glasses are clearly marked. The look On very rare occasions I have seen a busy pint puller try and get away with too much head on a beer. All it takes for them to shape up is one meaningful look. No words are spoken. The head is poured off and the real McCoy is substituted. A pint is a pint, believe me! When it comes to wine, the process is simple. A small wine is 150 milliliters and a large is twice that. Glasses are filled right to the line. No exceptions! Spirits are dispensed by the ounce and a proper shot glass (jigger) is used. At the prices they charge over there you won’t find a single bar in Scotland that doesn’t dole out the right amount of Scotch whisky for instance. Oh yes, here is a good place for an explanation. I mentioned that England is a birthplace of the pub which is short for “public house.” To further explain, public houses in today’s England are beholding to one brewery and serve only the beer produced by that brewery. Your other option is a “Free House” which is no different from a pub except

for the fact the owner is free to serve any beer they choose to carry. A little lesson I learned long ago. That and £2.9 will buy you a pint in most places in Britain today! What caught people’s attention the last time I wrote about this was just how often Ontario bars and restaurants dispense poor servings at maximum prices. It is a widespread problem. Just after returning from England the same situation came home to roast for us. Yes, we had another thirsty day! On this occasion we visited an area establishment we had only attended once previously. My pint of beer was served cold and despite the fact it had too much head (the British server would have gotten “the look”) I accepted it. My wife Kathleen enjoys white wine. In this particular restaurant they advertise five and eight ounce servings, which is very common today. Kathy ordered eight ounces. What came was clearly much less. With no marks on glasses it was impossible to say for sure. I would say it was less than five ounces. Sorry, but I have no hesitation in pointing out the obvious now. At one time we would have meekly sat back and accepted it. On this occasion the problem was solved. That is the only way to deal with our obviously flawed “system” in Ontario. Kick up a stink! Frankly we shouldn’t have to do that. Why don’t we have a fair measures law, just as we do when it comes to weighing

so many of the commodities we purchase? It’s high time everyone who experiences this kind of travesty complains, long and loud. I realize very few are likely to participate in a protest rally aimed at ensuring we get a fair measure when we order alcoholic beverages. But if enough individuals protest and lobby their MPPs, perhaps we can make this an issue important enough for the politicians to act on? I gave you one example. Readers of the previous column I wrote provided all of the additional evidence anyone could ever use. This sort of thing happens all the time. Without a law in place to deal with it this situation can only continue. Not in Britain. Any establishment which fails to offer its customers fair measures is subject to hefty fines and even closure if the indiscretions continue. The biggest contributing factor is the size of glasses. What is a pint in Ontario or for that matter in many places across North America? The Americas are infamous for serving so called pints in glasses which are clearly nowhere near the proper measure. We have no control over what happens in the States. But surely we must in our own country and our own province? Not the end of the world, I fully realize that! But why aren’t we treated more fairly? If we want to spend our hard earned dollars on a few drinks every now and again then

we are obligated to consume wisely and stay out of trouble. Most important of all, never mix alcohol with driving a motor vehicle! If we live up to the laws of the land there is no reason we can’t enjoy ourselves. Drink responsibly, use a designated driver or call a taxi. As customers we are not being treated fairly by many establishments who take advantage of an obvious loophole by doling out short measures at full prices. Personally I don’t frequent places where pints aren’t really pints and an eight ounce wine is clearly half that, deftly disguised in a large glass. Given our experience in England and Europe we go to pubs and restaurants where the measures are fair. There are lots of them. I can name several in our community who are always spot on. Boycotts shouldn’t be necessary. In a province where virtually everything related to the sale of alcoholic beverages is tightly controlled by the government, why is it that fair measures aren’t legislated as they are in other countries? That would be one thing in the favour of consumers! It is a simple matter. Inspect premises to ensure they are using marked glasses for beer and wine and that jiggers are employed to measure spirits. It works overseas and it would definitely work here! If you have any comments or questions for Jeff Maguire he can be reached by e-mail at: jeffrey.maguire@rogers. com

EMC News – Youth under 18 may be banned from using tanning beds. Canadian Cancer Society officials were on last week when Premier Dalton McGuinty announced plans to adopt NDP Health Critic, France Gélinas’ Private Member’s bill which aims to ban youth under 18 from using indoor tanning equipment. “We are thrilled with this decision because it will save lives and reduce the devastating impact of skin cancer,” says Joanne Di Nardo, senior manager of public issues for the Canadian Cancer Society in Ontario. “We thank Ms. Gélinas for introducing Bill 74 and look forward to working with the government to iron out details and ensure that the legislation is as comprehensive as possible to protect young people from the dangers of indoor tanning.” The Canadian Cancer Society is pleased that the gov-

ernment has recognized the strong consensus in the scientific community that the ultraviolet radiation (UVR) emitted by indoor tanning equipment causes cancer. In 2009, the world’s foremost authority in identifying the causes of cancer, the International Agency for Research on Cancer, classified ultraviolet radiation devices, including tanning beds, as known carcinogens. The skin damage caused by UVR is cumulative over a person’s life, meaning the earlier a person starts tanning, the greater their risk of developing skin cancer later in life. In July, an expert review of current research published in the British Medical Journal showed that people who first started using indoor tanning equipment before the age of 35 have an 87 per cent increased risk of melanoma skin cancer. “The Canadian Cancer So-

ciety has been on the front lines advocating on this important cancer prevention issue for more than six years,” says Di Nardo. “During this time, our volunteers and staff across the province have met with MPPs, written (letters to editors) and brought awareness of the dangers of indoor tanning through campaigns such as the Tan-Free Prom initiative which challenged youth to embrace their natural glow by pledging to avoid indoor tanning for their proms.” With this announcement Ontario is on track to join a growing list of Canadian municipalities and provincial governments who have taken action to regulate the indoor tanning industry, such as the Capital Regional District in British Columbia, Nova Scotia, Quebec and others.

United Way breakfast marks 25 years of service in county EMC News – In 1987, the start of the fall fund raising campaigns for the United Way in Lanark County began and over the next 25 years, the community came together each fall to help those in need. “Last year, our new theme “Change Starts Here� marked a different phase of our commitment to the community,� noted Johann Ramsaran, board chair. “In many ways those community members who started it all did indeed make a change to the community. Our 2012 Annual Fall Campaign marks 25 years of working hard - working to support our friends, our neighbours, our community - through our Member Agencies - who reach out to our seniors, our youth, our disadvantaged in the county, to help them to a better life.� To celebrate the opening of the campaign this fall, United Way Lanark County will be hosting kick-off breakfasts in Perth, Smiths Falls, Carleton Place, and Mississippi Mills, with the Smiths Falls breakfast taking place on Thursday, Oct. 4 from 7:30 to 9 a.m. at the Smiths Falls Youth Arena, 150 Elmsley Street North.

The breakfast is kindly sponsored by The Garden Market along with support from The Town of Smiths Falls. “These breakfasts are a chance for us to let the business community know how important their contributions are to the community, through the support they give with both employee and corporate donations to the campaign,� says Sarah Bridson, executive director of the United Way. “The idea of having individual breakfasts in each major town of the county is to allow local employers and employees to participate in this year’s 25th anniversary kick-off.� Each breakfast will feature brief presentations on the work of the United Way Lanark County, as well as testimonials from some of those who benefit from the help provided by the 16 member agencies of the United Way Lanark County. “Hearing from those who are helped is often the most important and moving portion of these meetings,� says Ramsaran. “It allows community members to see who and what their donations support.�

Household Hints

For crunchy crust on your fried chicken try chilling the chicken pieces in ice water for an hour before coating.

This year, community members are being urged to become an Everyday Hero. “For a donation equal to $1 per day, you have the opportunity to make a real difference in your community,� commented Ramsaran. “For just $1 per day, you can improve lives and make our community stronger, and for $1 per day, you can be an Everyday Hero! The easiest way to do that is by making pay roll donations at your place of work, by going on our website, and signing up to be an Everyday Hero, or by calling our office at 613-253-9074.� “We are really pleased that The Garden Market have generously agreed to sponsor our breakfast this year, with assistance from the Town of Smiths Falls for the location,� says Bridson, “and we just need community members to let us know they will be coming by either calling 613-253-9074 or by sending an e-mail to info@lanarkunitedway.com. We are asking for a $5 donation towards the breakfast and we hope as many community members as possible turn out to help us celebrate the start of the campaign.� For further information, or to RSVP, please contact the United Way Lanark County office at 613-253-9074 or via e-mail at info@lanarkunitedway.com.

Downtown Smiths Falls rolls out Wi-Fi pilot project the project. “We are so pleased to be able to offer this valuable service to shoppers and visitors downtown,” DBA board chair, Maire Hogan said. “Business owners, public and visitors to Smiths Falls will all benefit from this new project.” This free service will be available to anyone with a laptop or a wireless enabled phone or device in downtown Smiths Falls all day, every day. This system will be on an unsecured network, users will be advised not to use the

service for any data transfer requiring a password, including banking and social media sites. The introduction of Wi-Fi into public places is becoming more and more common and many Business Improvement Area organizations have implemented Wi-Fi as an added enticement to draw shoppers to their downtowns. In 2009, the Smiths Falls Chamber of Commerce introduced Wi-Fi service at Victoria Park and in 2010 at the Smiths Falls Community

Centre. Although there have been a few bugs to iron out, Victoria Ash, Manager of the Smiths Falls Chamber of Commerce, feels the Wi-Fi service currently offered by the Chamber has filled an important need for visitors. “There has been a lot of positive feedback about this service. The availability of the internet can be a deciding factor for people determining where to stay on vacation,” Ash said, “People like to keep in touch with family and work.”

Leadership training dates changed EMC Events - Last week’s article on upcoming leadership training hosted by the Town of Smiths Falls provided dates that have now changed. The first session will be held Oct. 18-19 inside the Smiths Falls Station Theatre and is called Leading Edge: First Steps. This course is geared towards those 18 years of age and over and is an eight-hour session each day. The focus is on building personal leadership skills and knowledge to help participants in becoming more effective in their involvement with local projects and initiatives. Some of the topics to be covered include: discovering your natural approach to interacting with others and conflict; decision making and speaking with confidence. The second session is called Leading Edge: Next Steps and

will be held Nov. 15 and 16 in the Smiths Falls Station Theatre. This program takes the skills learned in the first event and builds on them. Sample topics that may be part of the session include community development and strategic planning, how to gain community support, building community partners and engaging youth. Both programs require participants to complete a series of workshops that deal with a wide range of topics that are as broad as leadership and as specific as working with volunteers. Local community leaders with hands-on experience in specific areas have been invited to lead each section to ensure participants are getting the most effective information possible for creating change in Smiths Falls. A list of presenters is being finalized now and

FIRE PREVENTION WEEK OCTOBER 7TH-OCTOBER 13TH “Have 2 Ways Out!” Fire and smoke can spread quickly, so be prepared in advance! When the smoke alarms sound, everyone must know where to go — that’s why it is so important for everyone to have working smoke alarms and to develop and practice a home fire escape plan. ➢ If a fire occurred is your family prepared? ➢ Does your family have escape routes in place that are practiced? ➢ Will your Smoke Alarm work? On average five Canadians die from fire a week. Maintain your smoke alarms, talk with your family, plan your routes and practice them often! If your Smoke Alarms are in excess of ten years of age, it is recommended that you replace them. Nothing lasts forever.

Pinwheels made by students at Montague Public School to celebrate United Nations International Peace Day stand proudly against the wind and rain in the school entranceway on Sept. 21.

Students start to make Nobody a somebody, on Peace Day EMC News – Nobody, needless to say, has no personality. But that will change after a year in Donna Davie’s Grade 7 and 8 class at Montague Public School. “(He has) no personality, no gender,� said Ethan Loewen, of the faceless, sexless, nearly colourless doll sitting in the classroom last Friday. The only thing that is in any way remarkable about Nobody is the pinwheel he is holding in his hand, a symbol of peace that was added that day to mark United Nations’ International Day of Peace on Friday, Sept. 21. In the coming weeks, students will be working on various projects and, for each project, a new item will be added

to Nobody’s wardrobe, giving him some much needed colour and personality by the end of the school year, to match the bubbly personalities in Davie’s class. “We’re trying to make Nobody, somebody,� said Molly Leach. The students are being encouraged to donate time, money, and/or articles to promote a cause. On this day, students Jared Greer and Julia Ford chose the International Day of Peace, and the whole class made pinwheels, because “pinwheels represent peace,� said Greer. “You two came to us very excited about this,� said Davie. The whole class helped make up pinwheels which were then arrayed in a peace symbol at the school’s entranceway. Craig Curtis noted that ev-

eryone in the classroom will be doing a different project, spread out throughout the year, looking at everything from cancer awareness, food bank donations to peace to animal rights and preserving the leather-back sea turtle – pending Ms. Davie’s approval, of course. Davie admits that the Nobody doll, while a good idea, was not hers, but was tried out at the school several years ago, as part of the “Who Is Nobody?� project taken on by the Upper Canada District School board several years ago. Her class got their pinwheels together the day before, and then spent time helping younger students make their own pinwheels. “We didn’t really explain it,� said Miranda Flick. “We just had fun with it.�

Bears take one, give one during weekend action at home ute-and-a-half but the fourgoal deficit was too much to overcome. Tyler Akeson, the top scoring defenceman in the league, recorded his second four-assist game of the young season and was named the game’s first star. Maniccia and Buonincontri grabbed second and third star selections giving

EMC Sports - Appreciative audiences cheered the Smiths Falls Bears to a win and loss over the weekend. Rick St. Dennis, director of community services noted the hundreds of people who came out to support the Bears at home against Kanata Stallions on Friday and Gloucester Rangers on Sunday. Friday’s game (Sept. 21) against Kanata started slowly for the Bears with Kanata breaking the ice in the first period with no reply from the home team by that period’s end. The Bears stormed back in the second period with three goals in the first 6:53. Jesse Blais, Yannick Crete and Ryan Eardley had their team ahead 3-2 at the end of two periods. But despite being outshot 14-10 in the third, the final 20 minutes was all Stallions who scored three unanswered goals to skate away with a 5-3 win, the final goal being scored into the empty net in the final minute with Bears goalie Patrick Martin on the bench for an extra attacker. His counterpart with the Stallions, Brandon Lane, was outstanding, making 36 saves. That earned him first star honours.

Despite some hard work around the Gloucester net by the Bears’ Chris Maniccia, this goal was disallowed in Sunday’s game at the Memorial Community Centre. The Bears held their ground in the den skating away with a 5-3 victory over their visitors. Next game is this Friday, Sept. 28 when they face Cornwall at home.

Carleton Place Canadians. After a scoreless opening period, Smiths Falls’ Chris Maniccia scored the first goal of the game on the power play at 4:18 of the second period with help from linemate Connor McLaren and defenceman Tyler Akeson. Gloucester’s first goal was swiftly answered by Maniccia and

Michael Buonincontri who each buried the puck behind goalie Gunner Rivers to give the Bears a 3-1 lead by the end of two periods. Bears pulled away early in the third with Nic Marchand and Jeff Carroll connecting at 1:32 and 2:50 respectively. Rangers fought back with a pair of goals in the final min-

Opening tourney gives mixed results for Bantam AA Cubs

EMC Sports - The SFGHA Bantam AA Cubs play their first home game this Saturday at 5:40 p.m. in the Youth Arena against Nepean. The Cubs have been on the ice since mid-August and recently competed in their first tournament in Oakville. Friday the Cubs opened against Aurora and lost 4-0. Whether it was tired legs from the long drive or over aggressive play resulting in 22 minutes in penalties, the Cubs could not get any flow going. Down 1-0 after two periods, the Cubs started the third with a 5 on 3 power

play. When the Cubs couldn’t score and then had Aurora respond with an even strength goal of their own, the game was essentially over. The Cubs rebounded in their second game with a 2-0 win over Sarnia. Maggie Knott and Alicia Johnston scored the goals and Brooke Madigan was in nets for the shutout. Saturday the Cubs came out facing a top-ranked Etobicoke team. The Cubs knew they needed a win to advance. It was the best game of the season to date that ended in a 0-0 tie. Haleigh Reynolds earned the shutout.

With the tie, the Cubs faced a consolation game between the teams that finished 7-8. North York jumped out to a 3-0 lead but goals by Neve McKay and Alicia Johnston (on a penalty shot) brought the score to 3-2. With the goalie pulled for a 6 on 4 power play the Cubs rang one off the post but now in. All in all it was mixed results for the tournament. The Cubs were the only team to get a point off Etobicoke all weekend, but the Cubs’ inconsistent play will be something to work on in league play this week.

Closest to the Pin winners: Phil Edwards hit one close on #7. Harold Bryan hit one tight on #8. Pat Wiseman had the longest drive on #1.

Thursday Twilight Ladies: Being aware of the fact that our season is coming to an end, 71 gals decided to hit the course last night and 63 ladies stayed to enjoy another great evening in the clubhouse. Our league is what it is because of the generosity of our sponsors! A happy, smiling, over-thetop reaction from Julie Foster certainly made our weekly prize draw giveaway fun last night! Julie, your response to winning was enjoyable to witness! Our Mystery Lady winner was Marilyn Mitchell. Our second Mystery Lady who claimed a gift certificate was Pat Jansen! Enjoy Pat!

Al Ryan, Bruno Patti, Howard Jeffreys, and Don Ross were the B Champs with a solid score of 34.

Placing second was the team of Helen MacEwen, Tracy Staples, Angie Pacey and Bev Leach. Love your name “The Biker Babes”. There was a 3 way tie for third place. Our Senior Intersectional team event was held in Smiths Falls on September 17th. We hosted teams from Ottawa Hunt, Kanata and Hylands. Smiths Falls placed 1st and will now move into Division “B” and will travel to Brockville next year. Our team members were Lilianne Radford, Penny May, Cathy

Francis Ouimet. 2012 Twilight Closing The golf gods were kind, granting us good weather for the 2012 Twilight Closing held at the Smiths Falls Golf and Country Club on Saturday, Sept. 22. Once again, it was an incredibly fun and entertaining day of golf action made possible by the hard work of the Twilight Committee, greens crew, clubhouse and pro shop staff. If you were there, you understand. And to make a long story short, here are the day’s results: A Flight: Score of 55 Brent Rotondo, Roy Leach, John Tobin, Dan McNeely, Dan Roberts and Paul Vaillancourt

Burgress, Helen MacEwen, Janice Stenzl, Robin Milks, Karen Kerr and Pauline Kolano. Girls winning 6 points were Robin Milks and Cathy Burgess. A great team victory. Good luck all champions at the Tournament of Champions on October 2nd. A big thank you is extended to all our committee members, board of directors and staff. Volunteers play such a large part of any organization or business and without these individuals events would not run as smoothly and be enjoyed by so many folks. Think about staying in touch with your golf fundamentals either taking a vacation to a warmer location or a visit to Paul’s golf school this winter.

B Flight: Score of 60 - Rob Dales, Chris Dales, Behn Dales, Mike Donovan and Rodney Parent

“I WANT TO BUY YOUR VEHICLE!”

GET MORE FOR YOUR TRADE THIS WEEK AND GET THE NEW VEHICLES YOU REALLY WANT! CARLETON PLACE – “Frankly put, it’s a trader’s market! It’s harder than ever to find good used vehicles to put on our lot,” says Mike Pitre from Carleton Ford in Carleton Place.

CARLETON FORD Mike is writing cheques to customers and wondering, “How will I find more pre-owned cars to buy from people in this Trader’s market?”

““IF IF YOU U OWN OWN A VEHICLE VEHIC CLEE OF ANY MAKE AND MODEL I AM BEGGING YOU TO BRING IT IN SO I CAN BUY IT FROM YOU!”

“I’m willing to pay top dollar for your trade-in even if you don’t buy a vehicle from us. If you have a vehicle a couple of years old, even if you still owe money on it… bring it to me and let me make you an offer to buy you out so you can get something better.” Local residents have been flocking to Carleton Ford on Highway 7 in Carleton Place for over a month now to find out what their car is worth. It’s predicted the inventory shortage will last till the end of May.

We’re expecting a lot of pre-owned vehicles to become available in 30-40 days, and at that time, the trader’s market will be over. It will be back to business as usual.” “In addition to the top dollars we’re willing to pay to buy your existing vehicle, we’re giving away Upgrade Allowance Vouchers worth up to $1000 to all the individuals that will let us make them an offer.
