Celebration of a century Farm folk know how to celebrate and Saturday night family, friends and neighbours gathered at the farm of Alex and Betty Briscoe to mark the 100th anniversary of the Admaston-Bromley farm. While the focus was on the history of the family farm, the Briscoes were also celebrating their 35th wedding anniversary.

Guests were asked to not bring gifts, but donations for Hospice Renfrew were accepted. From left are Betty and Alex Briscoe with their children Andrew, William and Melanie. For story, see page 13.

News - If work on the proposed Ontario Provincial Police’s building for the Renfrew detachment continues to go well, construction of the new facility should happen in 2015.

Any criticisms that the County of Renfrew wants to be a landlord for many county facilities just isn’t so, says county director of development and property Paul Moreau.

In 2005, the county purchased the former Canadian Tire property on which Renfrew County Place was opened two years later.

At present, there are 20 acres of undeveloped land that is owned by the county, of which about five acres would likely be used to build the local detachment’s facilities.

“This is a business relationship that we would have with the Province of Ontario, to build the facility and be the landlord and house the OPP,” said Moreau.

News – There is a power struggle over the heart and soul of the Progressive Conservative party and its first manifestation was apparent in the race for interim leader.

Following four straight losses to the Liberals, the now diminished PC caucus was set to pick a temporary leader this week after Tim Hudak’s resignation took effect July 1.

It’d be chaos.�

He goes so far as to say no member of caucus would accept the role of party whip if elected; only if appointed by the leader.

Yakabuski isn’t considering a run as the party’s full-time leader, saying he doesn’t want to “give up that much time to Toronto.�

The soul-searching and turmoil in the party is evident in the early announcement by current deputy leader Christine Elliot that she is running for party leadership.

If she wins, Elliott will be considered by many to be the closest thing to a centrist leader the party has had in many decades. And that seems just fine with MacLaren.

While committed to fiscal conservatism, MacLaren said he sat on a committee with her dedicated to finding ways government can help families with children who live with autism and other mental disabilities. “That is a role of government, helping those who can’t help themselves.�

The interim leader was to be selected Wednesday, after the newspaper’s deadline.

Permanent leader not expected until 2015.

Among those vying for the job are two MPPs from the Eastern Ontario: Renfrew-Nipissing-Pembroke’s John Yakabuski and Lanark-Lennox and Addington’s Randy Hillier.

While both conservatives, Hillier is considered further to the right on many issues. He emerged from a rural landowner activism background to cause friction with party stalwarts from southern and urban ridings.

Yakabuski, also proud of his rural roots, is seen as more of a moderate and less confrontational.

An example of their different visions became apparent last week when Hillier said more decisions should be made by caucus, not the leader. The caucus should elect the party whip rather than have the leader appoint them, for instance, and it should control party spending. He believes the leadership should ask more frequently for individual party member’s input, too.

As well, he has suggested that the leadership vote be conducted with each party member having a vote instead of leaving it up to delegates chosen from each riding.

Jack MacLaren followed Hillier as president of the Ontario Landowners Association before winning his own seat in Carleton-Mississippi Mills.

He stands behind Hillier and his ideas for a more “people-oriented� movement. “We run in a democracy and believe in democracy; maybe we as a party should be more democratic, too,� MacLaren said. “We need to be communicating better with our grassroots members.

They should feel free to contact any MPP at any time with ideas.�

Talk of a grassroots movement by rural-activist politicians leads some observers warn against a Tea Party North mentality taking over the Tory party.

Pundits say the party has already double- and triple-downed on that approach – a disdain for government intervention and lauding of individualism - with Hudak and, before him, John Tory.

Yakabuski flatly rejects Hillier and MacLaren’s ideas on removing powers from the leader. He said the interim leader’s responsibility is to bolster morale and unity among caucus and create enthusiasm among the 40,000strong membership. “You are to hand the party over to the leader when the time comes in good shape,� Yakabuski said of the need for strong leadership. “(Their position) is not the tradition and would not serve the party well,� he said. “I don’t think it’s the right way.

Quilty throws hat in ring for councillor in Admaston-Bromley Peter Clark peter.clark@metroland.com

News - Michael Quilty is the first to put his name up for a councillor’s position in Admaston-Bromley Township.

Quilty, 67, who retired after 35 years with the Ontario Provincial Police in 2000, filed his nomination papers June 19. “I was on the township police services board for eight years, but this is a very first for me to run for municipal

council,� Quility said.

His father and grandfather had served in municipal politics before him.

Quilty was on the Royal Ottawa Mental Health Institute board for 10 years, and has worked with a number of committees locally. These include an instant stress management group to help volunteer firefighters who might have difficulty dealing with issues.

Quilty said ballooning po-

licing costs is one major issue, not just in Admaston-Bromley, but everywhere. “I think the cost of policing should be taken back by the province. “It was downloaded by the province to the smaller municipalities. It has become such a burden,� he said. “In our township, we don’t have a commercial tax base.

It’s all residential or farm,�

Quilty noted. “It’s a big, big cost for us.�

Waste management is also an important issue. “We continue to bury our garbage,� Quilty said. “We really need to get people involved in recycling. It’s a extra little chore on Saturday morning, but it’s worth its weight in gold. It cuts down on the amount of stuff that goes into the landfill.�

WORK TOGETHER

Quilty said municipalities

should work together more to save costs. “For example, putting out the tenders for winter sand.

Instead of each municipality doing that, collectively could we do it, and put out one tender to service all four or five municipalities. “It would be more consistent, and probably financially better for all of us. The price should go down, like bulk buying,� he said. “Can we share equipment,

can we share resources, can we share specialty-trained people? Those are things that need to be looked at. We need to step outside the box and look at new ways of doing things to save money. “I don’t have all the answers, but neither does anyone else,� he said. “There are five voices around that council table, not one,� he added. “It’s really important to work together.�

Bob Kingsbury is first to seek job as mayor in Horton Township Steve Newman steve.newman@metroland.com

News - Retirement in 2003 allowed Bob Kingsbury to do things he really wanted to do – like spend more time in the political arena and with family.

He served two terms on Horton council, from 1990 through 1996, but sat out two terms to focus on work at Haley Industries.

Then he was elected to three more terms.

Now 71 and after 17 years on council, he says he still has the energy to do the job, and more.

A few times each week, he walks about 1.5 miles around his yard.

He also exercises the brain by reading a mountain of council material, as well as Bob Kingsbury is one of two candidates to enter the political biographies, mysteries and books on history. mayoral race in Horton Township.

“There’s a lot of time required to do the job, and retirement helped in that regard,� says Kingsbury, who is the first candidate to enter the Horton race for mayor.

Kingsbury lost his dad to cancer when he was a young boy, but he says he had several competent teachers along the way, among them previous Horton mayors Milt Stevenson, John Doering, Bob Johnston and incumbent Don Eady.

He credits Stevenson for his level-headedness and insistence that you know the facts before making a decision.

Kingsbury says he doesn’t know if Eady will seek re-election, but says that’s immaterial; he simply wants to pursue a new political challenge.

As for Coun. Margaret Whyte’s decision to run for mayor, after first filing as a councillor candidate, Kingsbury responds: “I was

surprised, but I welcome the competition.�

To be sure, Kingsbury says he won’t shy away from expressing his opinion strongly, and is approachable and honest.

He also has a 13-item wish list, but only mentions three for now: 1. a flat remuneration for all council members regardless of the length of meetings; 2. include all five council members on the finance committee; and 3. pressure the Province to lessen restrictions placed on property development by the Endangered Species Act. Meanwhile, he says Horton must continue to pay down its debt and pressure the Province to ensure the new OPP funding formula doesn’t leave Horton and other small townships cash-strapped.

Bob and wife Nellie, who worked 38 years at Bonnechere Manor, have four adult-age children.

4 The Renfrew Mercury - Thursday, July 3, 2014

Steve Newman

steve.newman@metroland.com

News – Tim Hortons in Renfrew is again expanding its drive-thru service.

The Tim Hortons at Bruce and Stewart streets recently had a two-lane, drive-thru system built to reduce traffic congestion.

And now the same is being done at its O’Brien Road facility.

Council passed the site-plan agreement June 23 to enable the expansion. The site plan also calls for the addition of more parking spaces, including motorcycle-friendly parking, and a patio to accommodate customers. “There have been some fairly challenging circumstances at Froats (Street) and the intersection,� noted development and works director Mike Asselin. “Certainly, it would be a great improvement over the circumstances that are there today.�

When asked by Mayor Bill Ringrose if he any comments during the council meeting, local Tim Hortons owner Don Carty said, to supportive laughter from council members, “I’d

like to get this done. It’s in bad need of being done, and it’s going to curb all that congestion that’s been there since No-Frills has been built (next door), and I just look forward to getting shovels in the ground July 2.�

Coun Tom Anderson said he was happy to see the plan move forward.

Coun. Clint McWhirter said he liked the site plan and, as a motorcyclist himself, especially the plan for biker-friendly parking. “Tim Hortons and biking go hand in hand,� he told Carty. “Every time you go for a ride, everybody stops at a coffee shop. You’re ahead of the curb.

Good job.�

The parking for motorcyclists will also have a cement base, so motorcycle kick-stands don’t sink into the parking surface.

The plan accommodates 11 new parking spaces and provides capacity in the two-lane drive-thru for 18 vehicles, which is said to be the maximum amount of queuing seen at Tim Hortons drive-thrus in Ottawa.

The extra land needed for the drive-through expansion will be leased from No-Frills.

County’s weighted vote likely to stay Steve Newman steve.newman@metroland.com

News - Renfrew County council may reconsider the weighted-vote bylaw that was adopted in 2001.

Upon the request of any county member, a weighted vote can be called for on any motion or bylaw put before council. That system is based on one vote per 500 electors for each of the 17 municipality members of county council.

The current weighted-vote distribution, from heaviest to lightest, is Petawawa 25, Laurentian Valley 16, McNab-Braeside 13, Renfrew 13, Whitewater Region 13, Madawaska Valley 12, Arnprior 12, Greater Madawaska 11, Bonnechere Valley 9, North Algona Wilberforce 8, Deep River 7, Killaloe, Hagarty & Richards 7, Admaston-Bromley 6, Horton 6, Brudenell, Lyndoch & Raglan 5, Laurentian Hills 5 and Head, Clara & Maria 2.

That distribution leaves a total of 170 votes.

SITE PLAN APPROVAL

Laframbroise spoke briefly

to Renfrew council June 23 when a site-plan agreement was passed that includes demolition of 11,866 square feet of the larger building at 1035 O’Brien Rd. Knowing the remaining space of 1,486 square feet will be home for new office space, she said, “As you know, the manufacturing plant has sat dormant for quite some time.

I’m excited to be launching micro offices out of there.

“It will provide an opportunity for small businesses to get a leg up in our community … the rates are reasonable. They include heat, lights and utilities; it’s an appetizing starting point for a lot of businesses.

“Getting rid of the manufacturing plant is obviously very necessary.

“The ceiling heights are too low to accommodate any current manufacturing process, so it has become a dinosaur … and I think this was a creative way to retain a portion of the building and sort of build up Renfrew a little bit.”

The demolition, which is expected to happen shortly, should take about two months, said Laframboise.

For more details about the property, contact Wilson at 613-432-8417 or Laframboise at 1-613-295-5225.

Since the 1970s, Wilson says he has built about 1,000 dwellings in the Town of Renfrew.

News - The O’Brien Road corridor is a growing commercial hub, but its growth has only just begun.

At least that’s the hope of developer Mack Wilson of Wilson Investments of Renfrew Ltd. who is striving to create a multi-business centre at 1035 O’Brien Road.

Right next door, at 2 Innovation Drive, is the new Ontario Power Generation offices for close to 70 employees, and part of his drive to grow commercial-sector jobs in this part of town.

“We want to grow the economic footprint in town,” said Wilson. Ontario Power Generation, which officially opened June 1, 2014, occupies a new building of 20,000 square feet after signing a long-term lease with Wilson Investments last year. But Wilson and his project lead, Nicole Laframboise, are focusing on turning the property beside OPG into more commercial activity.

Part of the former Estate Hardwood Flooring building, with a roof that will cost about $1.2 million to fix, will be torn down in early July, leaving about 125,000 sq. feet for more potential development on nine acres of land.

“The actual usefulness of the building has expired,” said Wilson.

The other part of that building is already attracting tenants in the last few months, after the closing of Estate Hardwood Flooring. Recent new tenants are Dr. Craig Appleyard and physiotherapist Lesley Barnes, while massage therapist Stuart Mason is scheduled to open his office Aug. 1.

The new commercial space has been branded as Micro Pro Suites, whose space includes parking, as well as a shared kitchenette and board room.

The rented space includes offices from 75 to 1,200 sq. feet.

The entire commercial block of 14.75 acres is 20 per cent Ontario Power Generation space, 20 per cent Micro Pro Suites, and 60 per cent soon-to-be vacant property.

Wilson and Laframboise say they’d like to see the total property add $300,000 to $400,000 to the town’s annual tax base.

“We want Renfrew to be open for business,” said Laframboise. “There are lots of independent businesses, so we should give them a leg up.”

The property is located across O’Brien Road from Wal-Mart, Canadian Tire and the soon-to-be constructed A&W.

Admaston-Bromley council reviews 2013 performance Peter Clark

peter.clark@metroland.com

News - Admaston-Bromley council has reviewed its performance measures for 2013.

Calculations in all service areas are based on 1,326 households, 2,640 population and $312,505,777 in property assessment.

• Protection: Police services cost per person was $89.85 for the year. There were three cases of violent crime per 1,000 persons, eight cases of property crime, three cases of criminal code and 13 cases of youth crime per 1,000 people.

• The cost of fire services per $1,000 of assessment was 66 cents.

• General government: Total municipal costs were 10.2 per cent. This includes salaries, wages, employee benefits, materials, contracted services, rents and financial expenses.

• Roadways: There are 656 lane kilometres in the Admaston-Bromley road system, with 579 kilometres maintained in the winter.

Operating costs for paved roads was $703.66 per lane kilometre; unpaved roads $856.61 per lane kilometre; and winter control, $482.48 per lane kilometre.

• Solid waste services: Operating costs for solid waste disposal was $376.37 per household while recycling operating costs was $8.60 per household.

A total of 18.2 per cent of residential solid waste was diverted for recycling, an amount that disappointed Mayor Raye-Anne Briscoe.

That number should be much higher, the mayor said.

• Recreation: Operating costs for recreation was $15.03 per person. Recreation programs ran 1,965 hours.

Participant hours per 1,000 people was 744.

Weighted vote Continued from page 6

• Library: The township’s public library in Douglas was used 29,637 times, or 11.23 times per person.

Operating costs were $11.21 per person.

Electronic library use was 23 per cent.

Non-electronic usage covered the remaining 77 per cent.

NO PETS AT BARR LINE CENTRE

Council amended a bylaw to regulate the keeping and control of animals.

With the exception of assistance animals, domestic animals and pets are no longer allowed at the Barr Line Community Centre.

Pets shall be deemed to be running at large or trespassing if on the property.

Signs will be put up to notify pet owners of the change.

The bylaw took affect June 18.

Discussion regarding the possibilities of changing the weighted-vote bylaw would best be reserved for the next term of county council, following the October 2014 municipal elections, suggested Warden Peter Emon at the June 23 meeting of county council.

“I think that will be a very entertaining discussion, but probably not today,” he said.

Renfrew Reeve Audrey told county council June 23 that she’d like a report brought back regarding the weightedvote framework in other counties.

Green, who has also suggested a cap on number of votes per municipality, even said the system could be made a lot fairer by abolishing weighted votes altogether.

Mayor Raye-Anne Briscoe, whose Admaston-Bromley Township has one of the lowest number of weighted votes, disagrees. She argues that the weighted vote, as it now is, respects the townships that carry greater numbers of property assessment.

“I think it’s fair the way it is,” said Laurentian Valley Mayor Jack Wilson, whose township has the second-highest number of votes, but also the second-highest amount of taxpayers.

Knowing his Greater Madawaska Township has an abundance of water-

front property, he also facetiously suggested a new weighted vote should be based on waterfront.

Ironically, Emon noted that any vote to change the weighted-vote system would use the current weighted-vote method, therefore it would be unlikely to pass.

At present, the schedule of votes can change, based on the number of eligible voters provided by the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation. But the basis of one voter per 500 electors can’t change with-

out a vote by county council. It sounds like some county councillors want a change, but they don’t know what the change would be, says Emon.

Personally, he has a history of being for or against weighted votes, depending on how the vote went.

To laughter from council, Warden Emon facetiously said discussion could be reserved for January 2017, or even 2027. He also said, “It is the rule, and at this point I don’t see an alternative being presented that is suitable.”

WORD OF LIFE MINISTRIES Sundays at 2PM 8 Argyle and Monroe Sts., Renfrew John 1:12 “But as many as receive Him (Jesus), to them gave He the right to become children of God, even to them that believe on His Name.”

EDITORIAL

Facing the tragic turns of life A blanket of sorrow lay over Renfrew and area last week as the community said goodbye to one of its sons.

Death is always sorrowful, but when 27year-old Schuyler O’Brien died it reminded us all of the fragility of life.

In our June 5 edition, Renfrew Mercury senior reporter Steve Newman told the story of how Schuyler helped his sister Shannon recover from injuries suffered in a serious fall, and how the two completed the Ottawa Marathon together.

Schuyler was clearly a source of deep inspiration to his sister, just as his educator parents Wilf and Janet were to so many students in local school systems over the years, Wilf as a teacher and later principal at Renfrew Collegiate Institute, and Janet as a teacher.

We have just concluded graduation time,

a time reserved not just for celebration of achievements, but also for serious reflection of lessons learned and gratitude owed.

Schuyler’s role in his sister’s miraculous recovery should stand as a sign for all of the undeniable power of heartfelt support and inspiration.

As a community, our greatest remembrance of this young man’s life would be to spread his spirit by supporting and inspiring others as we move forward in this unpredictable world.

We would – as individual citizens and the community as a whole – be all the stronger for it.

Not every lesson is learned in a classroom.

They lie in every compassionate gesture, unrestricted empathy and any effort made to ease another’s journey in life.

Will help arrange visits to Peru To the editor:

Opinion - Dear friends: As many of you may know, Yvonne and I will no longer be organizing pilgrimages to Peru but we are open to organizing a trip for anyone wishing to visit Peru for the purpose of meeting Christ in the Peruvian People and to see how the diocesan funds are helping the people of Lima and area.

I am also inviting anyone who wishes to spend a week or two visiting the families in our Mission of Chincha Alta, Peru to come and be a part of that mission experience.

Sisters MarĂ­a and Gloria are always happy to have friends from Canada come and visit them and be a part of their living situation for a short time.

Let’s pull together for Mother Earth To the editor:

Opinion - Please dear readers, move on from the abortion issue.

Let’s all agree to disagree and move on to our abused and polluted mother earth.

What will life be like for our children, grandchildren, great grandchildren and on and on? Will the air be breathable? Will the water be safe to

swim in? Will the earth be fertile?

Will there be safe food to eat?

Please, let us all pull together to make our planet, Mother Earth, healthy and productive for our future generations.

Let’s make our governments prioritize healing this beautiful, amazing planet. Let’s reward our scientists

who are working on this. Let’s create more jobs in sustainable environmentally healthy technologies.

Let us put the environment first and money second. Surely there are young brains that can figure out how to wed the two. Thank you.

Respect life at all stages

choose it. But the choice is ours to make, so I believe it is wrong to believe God punishes His people unjustly.

The Old Testament is not the way we are to live. That is the reason God the Father sent His only Son, born of the Virgin Mary, to show us the way.

God does forgive sinners who repent but for those who do not believe, or repent, the choice of the afterlife is theirs alone.

Morals don’t have to be just practised by religious people but it is a lack of good morals that bad choices are being made.

As for the unwanted child, there is adoption. The fetus is a child and only time proves it.

Some people dress in manners to show others they don’t have morals, so they are used as such, by some people, and our organizations help these people with taxpayers’ money.

We don’t object to helping others but I continue to stress respect for life at all stages, conception to death, for sick and healthy, and don’t let evil rule the world.

A look at biology and the moral imperative To the editor:

Opinion - Reproduction is a biological phenomenon, not a political event.

When politics is superimposed on the reproductive cycle it turns it into a divisive issue.

When we view the abortion issue from a biological perspective it take on a very different look. The biological success of life on this planet is due to the diversity of life forms, genetics, populations, ecosystems and individuals, including their sense of morality.

Often the abortion topic focusses on the issue as to when an embryo-fetus becomes a human person.

This is not a biological question as the gene pool of homosapiens includes sex cells, embryos. fetus and adult organisms. This encompasses the concept biologists call the alternation of generations between haploid and diploid life forms of a species.

Humanity, as the genus homo, began about two million years ago with an east African female homonid often referred to as Eve by molecular anthropolo-

gists. That first human was female because of cellular, not biblical, reasons. As this lineage is traced using the transfer of mitochondrial DNA in the ovum.

Spermatozoa do not transfer their mitochondria. Humanity began at that time and continues as an unbroken lineage until today.

Our entire sexual reproductive system is just as much a part of the gene pool species we call humanity as you and I. We are all part of a continuos cycle of life. The human life cycle does not start and stop.

Yes, there is eternal life but it is through your genes, not your genes not your spirit or soul.

What is our moral responsibility? The DutchAmerican biologists Frans de Waal points out, often a lifetime of research, that our sense of morality is innate – it is hard-wired into our brains. It’s why no culture endorses incest.

But biology is not based on any moral principles hence 90 per cent of all newborn songbirds die within the first year of life.

It only takes 10 per cent

to ensure species survival.

We humans need to be concerned about the biological fact that there are not enough resources on this planet for the 7.5 billion humans on earth.

Globally, we cannot feed, house, educate, medicate, those of us who presently exist.

Ask yourself why there are no 80-yearold suicide-bomber terrorists.

Is it because poor young people look at their future and see

Ottawa Valley Tours

death as a viable alternative?

We need to first determine how to take care of those who presently inhabit this planet. That means by reducing our numbers by approximately five billion.

Unfortunately, no religious, political or scientific institution has the fortitude to address the single most important question facing humanity today.

That simply means having a death rate which exceeds the

birth rate until an equilibrium of 2.5 billion humans if achieved.

There is no other way presently known to ensure not only pure survival as a species but a life that is devoid of hate, anger and greed which are always based on an uneven distribution of resources.

An equitable distribution among a stable population will leave more room for empathy, love and compassion.

OPINION

Was the last provincial vote to get better government?

To the editor:

Opinion - Was it to get a better government?

Did the majority of electors have brain freeze or did they put common sense on the shelf for the day?

Or were they driven by the fear-mongering of the higherups in the unions who are for the most part obsessed by selfishness and greed?

An election campaign that seemed to be going in a normal and just fashion, suddenly turned vicious and mean after Progressive Conservative Leader Tim Hudak announced he would cut 100,000 jobs of bureaucrats; of those who were collecting fat salaries and contributing little in return to Society.

Oblivious to the second part of Mr. Hudak’s statement in that he would create a million jobs, power-seeking Liberal union reps ran insanely out of control and took much of the electorate with it.

All union members belonging to various unions, be they medical, educational, broadcasting, to name a few, were all told or threatened by their union reps to vote Liberal or lose their jobs.

Even teachers were then telling the students to tell their parents to vote Liberal.

One news reporter publically spoke out, telling his fellow union members, “Do not vote Conservative because we have good salaries and excellent benefits and don’t want to lose them.”

No one said they would loose them unless they felt insecure by Tim Hudak’s statement of eliminating people

who are making fat salaries and contributing little; so perhaps they felt it applied to them and had a vendetta against him.

What happened was absolute fear-mongering, dictatorship, corrupt and unacceptable.

There is no freedom and justice in that behaviour and certainly no fairness.

The average union member was deprived of their right to vote for the candidate of their choice.

We are supposed to be a democratic country and there was little democracy exercised in this election.

The outcome of this election will ultimately plunge the Province of Ontario into greater debt because of the horrors that have already preceded it..

Even now, union members who did not vote Liberal are being ostracized by union reps.

It is rather interesting that many union reps are telling their members that they are broke and yet really have not done anything of any significance for its members.

So if there are, for example, 150 members in a local union and each member pays estimated union dues of $25 a month for a year that equates to $45,000.

Where is their money going if local unions are broke?

How come the top union leaders have the power to influence the outcome of a provincial election to the detriment of the populace?

It was not any strategy of Kathleen Wynne or the Liberal members that gave a Liberal

majority. People were disgusted by the high deficit and the horrible things she was doing and were hoping for a change.

I am reminded of a story about a half-crazed young man who ran down the main street of a town screaming, “The dam has busted. The dam has busted.”

People dropped everything that they were doing and ran out of stores, classrooms, homes and yards while forming a mob. Even the officials, teachers and nurses joined in while running for their lives.

Finally an older gentleman who, being out of breath and could not run any more stopped and then said, “The dam is busted. I have lived here all my life and there is no dam.”

Did the electorate get caught up in the same frenzy?

The Bible in the Book of Numbers, chapter 13 talks about how Moses under the direction of God sent Twelve of Israel’s Top Leaders to spy out the Promised Land.

Two leaders came back with a good report stating that the land was rich and plentiful and they were well able to settle there. The other 10 leaders saw themselves as small and gave an evil report, saying there are giants in the land and instilled fear into all the people Consequently, they wandered around in the desert for 40 years and that whole generation died in the wilderness because of fear-mongering.

How many people in Ontario will miss out on what should have and could have been theirs and their families

because of leaders who gave an evil report ?

God help us!

Some will say, “I don’t believe in God.” Just because you do not believe in God does not mean He is not real.

Some people don’t believe in the law of gravity, but they will if the step off a roof top.

They will also then find out God is Real too. Hopefully it will not be too late.

I thank God for those who

ran an honest and just campaign and have the interest of their constituents at heart.

They are ultimately the true winners, like my MPP. Rev. Rose Leclaire Mount St. Patrick

Traffic backed up on Highway 17 between Arnprior and Renfrew.

MTO will continue to advise the public prior to lane closures, said Duhaime. BEI Construction is doing the work.

Renfrew OPP spokersperson Const. Janice Sawbridge said local travellers would be wise to avoid the area, if possible.

Alternate routes include Burnstown or River roads through Burnstown and White Lake to the south and along the Ottawa River to the north.

As well, some local drivers are taking Russet Drive to escape the waits. “We have seen some delays, at times significant delays, in traffic and wait times in the area of the construction on Highway 17 just west of Arnprior,� said Sawbridge. “Speed limits are reduced in the area and speed fines are doubled when workers area present. The OPP will be enforcing the speed

limits in the area and encourage everyone to obey the signs.�

While she did not have information regarding any specific charges in the construction area, it seems the delay was too long for several highway drivers. “One concerning call we did receive was a report of people reversing up the on-ramp from White Lake Road to Highway 17 west. They must have gotten on the highway, saw the backup of traffic and attempted to get off,� said Sawbridge. “Reversing on a divided highway (including the on- and off-ramps) is illegal, and dangerous.

Offenders will be charged. “We encourage people to be patient and courteous, and use alternate routes when possible,� she said.

News – Highway 17 expansion is underway west of Arnprior, but it’s not without its headaches for travellers.

Many drivers were surprised June 5 that in some cases there were hourlong delays.

Delays are expected to continue through the summer, say highway officials.

Periodic single lane closures will be required for some of the construction which will stretch on and off for more than a year extending west from where the four lanes of Highway 417 ends.

There are ways to keep up to date on expected delays. “We encourage motorists to plan ahead by following the ministry’s 511 twitter and website, and/or find alternate routes when possible. We understand it can be frustrating at times for drivers and we regret any inconvenience, but we encourage motorists to be patient as we work to improve the highway along this stretch as quickly and safely as we can,� said Brandy Duhaime, regional communications co-ordinator for the MTO. The work is being done between Division Street and Scheel Drive and includes one new interchange at Campbell Drive, one additional lane in each direction and drainage improvements. “Construction started in 2014 and will be completed in 2016. Until the end of construction, drivers can expect periodic lane closures to help facilitate the work and protect both workers and travelling public,� said Duhaime. “There are no detours in place and Highway 17 remains open to traffic, even during periodic single lane closures, there is no need for a detour onto local roads.�

An aggressive defender of its territory

DOVES, A BASKET CASE

Thea and Bob Wilson have a pair of mourning doves nesting in one of their ower baskets.

Thea says the birds are tolerant and do not seem to be disturbed by the trafďŹ c near the nest. The two eggs are incubated by both parents and require 13 to 14 days to hatch. The female normally incubates from dusk to dawn and the male from dawn to dusk.

LEAST BITTERN

Cedric Wright saw a rare least bittern in the Lime Kiln Road area this spring and saw a bird on two separate occasions in the same area in 2011.

Buffy wing patches identify this small secretive heron as it ushes from thick marsh reeds.

RAVENS NEST

A common raven has built a nest on the platform near the top of Arnold Wren’s silo.

The ravens ďŹ nd these platforms ideal places to build their nests.

A similar platform inside the gable end of a barn is also a favourite site.

Crows will attack ravens if they enter their nesting territory, and it gives us a good chance to observe the two species together.

The raven will be the larger of the two and will be the one with the diamond shaped tail.

Watch out for wildlife on area highways and side roads.

A short time ago a sharp-shinned hawk visited Ruth Fiebug’s feeder and drove all the birds to cover and they did not return for several days.

This hawk preys on other birds and is a member of the accipiter family.

They depend on surprise to capture their prey and once this element is lost they will leave and not return until the chances of surprise improve.

Lifestyle - The Latin name for the Eastern kingbird Tyrannus Tyrannus (the repetition is intentional) is well chosen.

It is a tyrant and will persistently attack crows, hawks and ravens should they venture into the kingbird’s nesting territory.

Smaller species are generally left alone.

The interaction between male and female will alternate between aggressive and tolerant before the eggs hatch.

The male is slightly aggressive toward the female when she ďŹ rst arrives in his territory, but he stops this after a few days.

Once the female starts to build the nest, she does not let the male near it until the eggs hatch. She may even attack him if she returns and ďŹ nds him too close.

Mac Coughlin saw a kingbird hunting for insects from a perch on top of a tomato frame in his garden.

The dark upper plumage and the fanned, white-tipped tail ďŹ rst drew his attention.

We see kingbirds most often when they are attacking a possible predator or sitting on a favourite perch.

COMMEMORATE THE BATTLE OF THE BOYNE

Celebration of a century farm Lucy Hass

lucy.hass@metroland.com

News - A century of farming was celebrated Saturday evening at the home of Alex and Betty Briscoe in Admaston-Bromley Township.

Alex’s grandfather W.T. Briscoe was born and raised on the Cheese Factory road in Northcote. He was born Feb. 20, 1882 and married Bella Davis, from Papineau Lake on April 4, 1906.

The newlyweds moved to the farm in Admaston now owned by Nathan and Mary Harris.

“The soil was a heavy clay, thus very difficult to handle with the lighter equipment drawn by horses.

He managed to harvest only three crops in five years. Fall of 1913 he heard this farm was for sale, and was interested in it as the soil was lighter and thus more forgiving,” Alex recounted.

The farm had been purchased from the Crown by the Campbell’s (John Jr.) in 1845.

W.T Briscoe purchased the property from Peter Campbell in the spring of 1914.

“Grandpa loved his new community. The Campbells, Browns, Fergusons and Reids were already

well-established and welcomed them to the community,” Alex said.

“W.T. and Bella raised six children on our farm and played an active role in our community,” he added. W.T. Briscoe passed away Oct. 13, 1953 and Bella in 1965.

James & Iva (Thom) acquired the farm after Bella’s passing.

“They raised four children and were also very active in the community. Both W.T. and James loved the soil and took very good care of it, growing some of the best crops in the community. They won locally with their crops and went on to the Royal Winter Fair, also winning champion at the worlds Fair in Chicago with their exhibit of peas.”

Alex and Betty purchased the farm from Jim and Iva in 1988.

They raised three children. William is a funeral director in the Town of Renfrew, Andrew is a RCMP officer in Manitoba, and Melanie is a registered nurse.

All three of Alex and Betty’s children are now married. Melanie married Travis Smith in June 2012. The marriage took place on the farm. They live next door on another of the original Campbell farms (Jack and Sara’s) which was joined with the Briscoe farm in the

fall of 2004.

“They are working to keep the family farm roots alive. There are four generation on this farm,” Alex said.

“The house on the farm was built as a log home in 1848. It was moved, but is still the original home,” Alex explained.

“It was built 19 years before Canada was even a country. The original house was built a distance from the barns, mostly from a fear of fires.

“Using wood-shingle roofs, cook stoves all year round, steam engine sparks – these were often the causes of fires in this era.

“By the early 1930s, with tin roofing, tractor power, fire was not as much a concern.”

Alex said the Campbells cleared the land and realized the importance of drainage. There are literally miles of sub-surface drains dug by hand in the property before it was ever purchased by the Briscoes. These drains were constructed of either stone or plank. Many still run water today.

Saturday’s celebration of country life featured a social hour, pork and roast beef dinner and entertainment by the popular Bowes Brothers bluegrass band.

News - The community of Renfrew and surrounding areas are invited to visit It’s An Honour!

This new travelling exhibit about the Canadian Honours System is now making its way across the country.

Over the next two years, it will journey to schools, community centres, special events and small towns to connect with and inspire visitors of all ages. Mounted in a specially designed 1,000-sq.-foot vehicle, the exhibit showcases stories of great Canadians who have been recognized for their extraordinary achievements with national honours such as the Order of Canada, Decorations for Bravery and Military Valour Decorations.

Featuring interpretative panels, multimedia elements and artifacts, this unique space provides an opportunity for visitors to learn more about these honours through an interactive learning experience.

The exhibit will be in Renfrew Friday, July 4 and Saturday, July 5 on Railway Avenue, beside Renfrew Town Hall The exhibit will be open to the general public from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Since August 2013, the exhibit has travelled through Saskatchewan, the Northwest Territories, Yukon, Northern Alberta and British Columbia. On Sept. 16, 2013, David Johnston, Governor General of Canada, officially launched the exhibit at Henry Wise Wood Senior High School, in Calgary, Alberta.

Douglas kids derby a part of family free fishing week John Carter john.carter@metroland.com

Sports - Ontario’s Ministry of Natural Resources is encouraging anglers in the province to introduce a friend to fishing during the family free fishing week July 5 to 13.

The Ontario Family Fishing week is a province-wide opportunity for Canadian residents to fish Ontario waters without the otherwise mandatory fishing version outdoors card.

The Ontario government designates two periods throughout the year as licence-free, Feb. 15-17 and July 5-13.

During all other time periods, Canadian residents between the ages of 18 and 64 years must purchase a valid fishing licence to legally fish in Ontario.

During free-fishing week, participants fishing without a licence must fish under the Conservation fishing license limits set out in the current Ontario Recreational Fishing Regulations Summary.

Copies of the regulations are posted on the MNR website, and are

Sports - Girls and boys who enjoy the game of basketball and wish to improve their skills have a golden opportunity to do so next week.

From July 7 to 11 in the St. Joseph’s Catholic High School gymnasium, the STARS Basketball Camp will be in operation for kids ages 9 to 14.

The camp runs daily from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

In conjunction with the Renfrew Rush Basketball Association, STARS is proud to continue in the Ottawa Valley to offer an exciting summer basketball camp in Renfrew, instructor Vicki Wilson said.

“Our teaching philosophy is to

emphasize the components of fun, fair play and positive attitudes while the participant learns to play the great game of basketball.”

Renfrew Collegiate staff members Vicki and Jason Wilson, both of whom have plenty of coaching experience, have instructed the camp for years.

They create an environment where the talents of each participant will flourish and the atmosphere is both challenging and fun.

All participants will receive a camp t-shirt, plenty of fun and games, and prizes.

For information, call Vicki Wilson at 613-622-1200.

“It is more important to be a good person than to be a good basketball player,” is the STARS motto.

Melissa Bishop of Eganville wins her second straight national championship title in the 800 metres.

Assertive win for Bishop Steve Newman steve.newman@metroland.com

Sports - Melissa Bishop’s front-running tactics brought the Eganville Olympic middle-distance runner her second straight national championship in the 800 metres Sunday in Moncton, N.B. Three of the four Canadian women to break the coveted two-minute barrier were racing. One of them, national record holder Diane Cummins, took third in 2:04.40 before announcing her retirement.

Bishop found herself in

the lead early and never relinquished it while controlling the pace.

“With 150 to go, I just turned the jets on and went for it,” said Bishop, whose time of 2:03.23 left Karine Belleau-Beliveau second in 2:04.39.

Bishop called the win a confidence booster and something she wants to get used to.

After winning, she shared a hug with the retiring national record holder who was racing in her 17th national championship.

Sultana Frizell of Perth won the hammer throw.

Navy McGarry battles AHC, fundraisers planned Peter Clark peter.clark@metroland.com

News - Navy McGarry turns 11 July 4, and she has already faced more challenges than most people will in a lifetime.

The daughter of Amy McGarry and granddaughter of Dwight and Debbie Crozier, and Michael McGarry and Susan McGarry has a rare condition called Alternating Hemiplegia of Childhood.

There are only 21 known cases of AHC in Canada and 700 in the world.

Navy’s mom is gearing up to do some fundraising in the summer, and also to create awareness for this condition.

Navy was diagnosed with epilepsy at three months old, but what she was experiencing was not a typical seizure, Amy said.

It took doctors one and a half years to find the diagnosis of Alternating Hemiplegia of Childhood, a rare dis-

Navy McGarry order. It is a migraine variant.

AHC is named for the transient repeated episodes of hemiplegia (paralysis of a portion of the body). It ranges from simple numbness in an extremity to full loss of feeling and

movement, on one or both sides of the body. It varies greatly in duration.

Episodes may alternate from one side to the other, or both sides at the same time.

“There are many different levels of AHC,” Amy said. “Navy seems to be one of the lucky ones, to have breaks in between episodes, as some kids suffer every day. However, the few gran-mal seizures she has endured are very serious.”

For the first three years, Navy’s body was limp most of the time, right through to her throat.

After doctors learned more, her episodes started to spread out. As she has gotten older and stronger, she usually has one or two episodes a month, lasting anywhere from three to eight days.

“She bounded back rather quickly and is the most determined child,” mom says.

“Although it takes Navy a little longer to master a skill, she eventu-

ally gets it. It’s quite amazing the things she can do, considering her arms and legs have only worked half of her life.

“While, at times, it can be very heartbreaking for her to not be able to participate in things most kids can, as chances are she’d go limp, Navy is quite grateful for the things she can do. She loves to cook, read, sing and dance.”

Some triggers can be controlled while others, not so much. They include weather or temperature changes, humidity above 75 per cent, commotion, over excitement, strong scents, emotional response, bright or blinking lights, swimming, playing in snow, large group settings, unfamiliar places, hormones and fatigue.

AHC also causes movement problems like cerebral palsy, and learning challenges and behavioral issues like autism.

“She’s good today, but tomorrow, when the weather changes, it could be different,” her mom says.

Fundraising events that Amy has on the go throughout the upcoming months for Cure AHC (www. ahckids.org) are awareness bracelets available at Rocky Mountain House and Pick-It Fence for $5; donation cans at stores and businesses around town; a bake sale at Walmart in September; and the Skunk Alley Open golf tournament at Dragonfly Sunday, Sept. 28.

“Every year the Skunk Alley Open picks a fund to donate to, and this year they chose Navy,” Amy noted.

Navy said she doesn’t like living with AHC. “The lights hurt my eyes.”

Her wish is,“that the doctors will help when my arm goes limp.”

“Life can be difficult at times, but we don’t dwell on it,” Amy added.

Navy attends Admaston Public School where she just completed Grade 5.

“She’s probably the only kid who will be sad to see school end,” Amy adds. “She loves school.”

A few times a summer, your thermostat may be signalled to pause and release your central air conditioner in short intervals to reduce the electricity it uses.

Adjustments only happen on weekday afternoons, and they’re extremely rare.

In 2013, there were only two peaksaver PLUS® activations.

Most people don’t notice a difference in temperature.

Anniversary prints on sale at 20th Valley Bluegrass festival Peter Clark peter.clark@metroland.com

PETER CLARK/METROLAND

Renfrew artist Joanne Beattie-Kalimeris, left, and Carole Mooney of the Valley Bluegrass committee hold a copy of the painting commemorating 20 years of Bluegrass festivals. Twenty copies of the painting will be on sale for $50 each at this year’s festival on the Johnston Farm on Castleford Road July 11 to 13. There will also be prints available at Scott and Sons Hardware. Proceeds go to Renfrew Victoria Hospital.

Community - Renfrew artist Joanne Beattie-Kalimeris has been painting since she was a young girl.

She took art classes from Dave Lorente at Renfrew Collegiate Institute.

Since then, she has made her mark.

Among many exhibits that she has created, Beattie-Kalimeris has a series of 15 paintings of Renfrew called My Renfrew Our Town.

These paintings highlight her childhood memories of growing up in Renfrew, and are on display at Donohue Art & Frame.

The Valley Bluegrass Festival is celebrating its 20th anniversary at the Johnston Farm on Castleford Road July 11 to 13. All but two of the festivals have been held at Johnston’s.

In honour of the occasion, Beattie-Kalimeris has painted a collage of the Valley Bluegrass.

Carole Mooney of the Bluegrass committee came up with the idea.

“Carole brought me in all different

pictures and I just put them together,” Beattie-Kalimeris said.

“It’s beautiful,” Mooney said. “We have 20 prints, and we are selling them for $50 at the Bluegrass Festival. The money goes towards Renfrew Victoria Hospital.

“I couldn’t believe it was 20 years.

That’s amazing,” Mooney added of the festival, which started in 1995.

The idea for the painting originated when entertainer Mike O’Reilly of Ottawa got sick last year.

Mooney suggested to give him a painting, and this year, O’Reilly will be back and the painting will be presented. “He has been our mentor right from the beginning,” Mooney added.

The painting that Bluegrass goers can purchase has the well-known barn with the festival dates, a Blue Moon of Kentucky, the Bluegrass logo, Mooney in her booth selling tshirts, a night scene with the lights, Julie Johnston’s planted hollyhocks, and the ever-popular Baleys Band, the five band members in straw that

adorn the front lawn at Johnston’s.

“People often stop to get their pictures taken with the Baleys,” Mooney added.

“I couldn’t not do them, They are so cool,” Beattie-Kalimeris said. She also did a print of the Baley’s only.

“This was my winter project,” Beattie-Kalimeris added of the main anniversary print.

“I started in October, and I wanted it finished for March, and I did it.”

She painting the Baleys in between as a fun project.

Aside from farm owners Bob and Julie Johnston and Darrell and Carole Mooney, others co-ordinating the festival are Kevin and Shelley White; and Arnold and Barb Dickson.

“We couldn’t do this without the volunteers,” Mooney said. “We can’t thank them enough.”

The $50 prints will also be available at Scott and Sons Hardware.

If the prints should become sold out at the festival, people can order them by paying the extra amount for postage.

Valley Bluegrass Festival to celebrate 20 years Lucy Hass lucy.hass@metroland.com

Community - Toes will be tapping next weekend as the Valley Bluegrass Festival celebrates its 20th anniversary July 10 to 13.

Promoted as a family-oriented festival in the friendly Ottawa Valley, the festival is held at the Johnston farm on Castleford Road in Horton Township.

The headline lineup kicks off Friday with The Gibson Brothers from New York.

Virginia band Junior Sisk and Ramblers Choice performs Saturday and Sunday; Hard Ryde from Prince Edward County hits the stage Friday,

Saturday and Sunday; and Traditionally Wound from Central Ontario entertains the crowds Friday and Saturday.

Other bands are Joe Mullins and The Radio Ramblers from Ohio; Dick Smith-Mike O’Reilly Band (Virginia and Canada); The Delaney Brothers from New York; Concession 23, Dusty Drifters, Rhyme and Reason; and Maple Hill.

Emcees over the weekend are Mike O’Reilly, Howard Bonner and guest radio DJs. “The volunteer committee that hosts and organizes the festival feels that it is important to give back to the community where we live and work,” says the festival website. “Since the

festival’s inception, over $80,000 has been raised and put to work in the community.”

Proceeds of this year’s 20th-anniversary event will be shared by Renfrew Victoria Hospital and Hospice Renfrew. The organizers thank all who sponsor, volunteer, attend and contribute to the annual festival.

“Together, you continue to make a real difference in the lives of others,” they say.

Admission fees, at the gate, range from $75 per adult for the weekend to $20 day passes Saturday and Sunday. Tickets are available in Renfrew at the Sears store on Raglan Street South.

Community - This year the 433 Wing is celebrating its 60th anniversary.

Thanks to Alf Halter, Ray Dolan, Alan McManus, Vern Prentice, Roy Taggart, and Bruce and Dolly

McPhail, the 433 Wing of the Royal Canadian Air Force Association was formed in 1953 and officially chartered on May 14, 1954.

The first 433 Wing quarters were at 50 Prince Street and served 433 Wing very

well for many years.

Many memorable charter nights were held in the old Wing, but it was rapidly becoming too small.

Under president Kent Gauthier, in 1989, a group of dedicated members purchased the

RENFREW ART GUILD

Battle of the Canvas at Art in the Park

members who died in the Second World War. Through the years, 433 Wing has been part of the community.

It has contributed to Renfrew Victoria Hospital, Hospice Renfrew

and several other organizations.

We are proud our accomplishments during the past 60 years, and the hope is we will be part of the community for many more years to come.

Horton Township man wanted on two assault charges Got Events?

OPP Continued from front

“It’s unique because we happen to have the land and it’s in the right spot, the right location.

The OPP have asked for that location because it’s at O’Brien (Road), it serves the town and it has access to Highway 17. It’s unique, it’s more of a one-off than something that we would (normally) pursue.”

The proposed site for the Renfrew OPP detachment would be located next to Renfrew County Place, which houses the Renfrew paramedic base, a daycare and offices for several agencies.

Renfrew County Place revenue serves to reduce the county’s annual tax levy by almost $200,000.

At the June 25 session of county council, Moreau pro-

Sarah Turcotte leads the investigation.

A victim reported their storage locker was broken into June 16. The storage locker was located at the Kenwood Corporate Centre in Arnprior. Const. Tamara Dube is investigating.

Const. Jamie Prince is investigating after a cat was reported taken from a yard on Lynn Street in Renfrew.

The cat was taken on June 17 by two males, one was tall and slim with dark hair, and the other was shorter with blond hair.

The cat is described as a pure white cat named Pickles with no tags or identifiers.

Charges were laid after an employee at Metro in Renfrew reported a male had been stopped for shoplifting.

Const. Joe Roach investigated and charged a 71-year-old Renfrew man with theft under $5,000. He was released on a promise to appear in court in Renfrew July 23.

Four bikes were stolen in separate cases in Renfrew.

vided an update on project developments.

Plans include a 15-year lease with CBRE (Coldwell Banker, Richard Ellis), the negotiator for Infrastructure Ontario that began negotiations with the county in 2012.

“Now we’re down to the short strokes, in terms of the critical details and what this would look like for the longer term,” said Moreau.

“If there’s not a problem with legal counsel in their review, hopefully we’ll be proceeding with the design of the facility and bring that back to committee. We also have to bring back the negotiated final lease document for approval by council.

That’s the critical next step for us.”

Once approved, the county can proceed with construction, said Moreau.

Someone entered an unlocked shed and stole two Norco bikes, one gray with black grips and the other one had orange grips.

Another bike was stolen from outside a residence on Ross Street in Renfrew. This was a black Norco bike.

On June 16 around 11 p.m., a white and red Supercycle was stolen from a residence on Lorne Street in Renfrew. A bike was also stolen from the truck of a vehicle overnight on June 16. The bike was a Haro BMX black.

Bike owners are encouraged to lock their bikes when not in use, and write down the serial number so you can identify it in case it is stolen.

Someone was busy, once again stealing small items from unlocked vehicles. Stolen property included purses, wallets, change, sunglasses, and iPod Touch and a Tim Hortons gift card. Vehicle owners are encouraged to remove valuables from vehicles and keep your vehicle locked when it is not in use.

“In terms of profitability for the county, at the end of a 15year period we hope to own the building. The final lease will give us a better feel for what those numbers will be. We would own the building, but we will finance the construction.

We will debenture it.”

At that point, there’s a “good likelihood” the OPP would renew that lease agreement, added Moreau.

Construction of the building for the Renfrew detachment would still leave 15 acres of land open for future development.

“We’re thankful to get it to Renfrew,” said Whitewater Region Reeve Don Rathwell about the prospect of generating revenue from a new OPP facility.

“And I think we should move, and move as quick as we can, on it.”

The county has spent a total

of $51,898 on the OPP project since 2012, including $25,000 so far this year.

At its June 25 meeting, county council approved spending up to $75,000 more this year.

The money will support continued negotiations regarding construction and leasing of the OPP facility next to Renfrew County Place.

At present, the Renfrew detachment houses some staff in Arnprior, in addition to operating out of two locations in Renfrew.

One building is at the north end of town and the other space is part of Renfrew’s downtown municipal headquarters.

With OPP’s plans to consolidate its Renfrew operations into one larger building, there is speculation that any vacated town hall space could be used for provincial-court services.

News - Ontario Provincial Police have obtained an arrest warrant for a male after he allegedly broke into a home in Renfrew and assaulted an occupant.

On June 18 at 2:40 a.m. OPP officers responded to the residence on Cross Avenue.

The male suspect had broken into the residence, caused some damage and assaulted two people in the home.

He fled prior to police arrival, and after searching the area, police obtained an arrest warrant.

A 33-year-old Horton Township man is wanted for two counts of assault, mischief and breaking and entering. Const. Kevin Rebertz is leading the investigation.

Police are investigating a break-and-enter report at a residence on Kerr Line in Whitewater Region. On June 19 at 9:10 p.m., the resident was walking their dog when they reported seeing someone standing at the window inside their home.

Evidence was seized from the residence and the investigation is continuing. Const.

Wishing with all our hearts, That your absence was only a dream.

Puffed wheat dishes, tableware were staples Lifestyle - My sister Audrey was being dispatched to Briscoe’s general store, and told to hurry up about it!

Father’s sister, Aunt Freda (not Aunt Lizzie who regularly sent the hand-me-down boxes from Regina) was coming for a short visit from Chicago! I had never laid eyes on Aunt Freda, nor had Mother. Our contact was through the odd letter, and a gift of a radio which was of no use whatsoever, since we had no electricity!

She would be arriving at the C.P.R. station in Renfrew late in the day, would be there for one day and one night only, and then heading to Arnprior to visit Aunt Nellie and Uncle Henry Wagenblass. Well, did that set our house in a frenzy!

What to have for supper? Change the bed upstairs, clean from top to bottom, get out the only white tablecloth we owned and which Mother had brought from New York, and try to find dishes that matched. And do all of this before Father headed into Renfrew to bring Aunt Freda out to Northcote.

The dishes were the problem. We had a hodgepodge of mismatched dishes, some with a gold maple leaf in the centre of each plate that had been in our old log house for generations, some with a navy-blue rim around them, and then there were the ones that came in the

Mary Cook’s Memories

BY MARY COOK

puffed-wheat bag. Without a doubt, they were best of the lot, but we were far from having enough to set a complete table. In fact, there weren’t enough of the puffed wheat dishes to even make one complete setting.

I thought everyone in Northcote got their dishes from the puffed-wheat bag.

Unfortunately, the company that put one piece in each bag, gave an overabundance of saucers, and rarely bothered with cups.

And so we had an about 12 saucers, no cups, a couple dinner plates, and a small plate Mother called a bread-and-butter plate, which according to Father wasn’t worth taking out of the cupboard.

And so Audrey, with me in tow, was heading for Briscoe’s General Store to buy yet another bag of puffed wheat, and hopefully come home with at least one tea cup.

To prepare for this errand, Audrey had gone to the sewing basket and taken out a long knitting needle, and I knew exactly why.

She also had a short list of things Mother had to have on hand just because

Aunt Freda was coming. A bar of Ivory soap, (heaven forbid Aunt Freda would have to use homemade soap reeking of Gillettes Lye) because regardless how hard Mother tried, she was never able to completely dissolve all the little pieces of lye in the making.

When we got to the store, Audrey headed right for the bags of puffed wheat.

Although as light as a feather, the bags were big, with a strip of paper down the front with very small holes in it, so that the customer could see what a wonderful cereal this was!

The bags were piled up against the wall, and Audrey, making no attempt to hide what she was up to, got down on her hands and knees and ever so carefully, worked the knitting needle into one bag at a time.

She poked away until she hit a piece of china, which the company made awfully sure was right in the middle of the bag. It was my job to see that she didn’t attack the same bag twice.

She had worked her way through about 10 bags, when finally she came up for air, and looking like she had just discovered

America, took the bag over to the counter, gathered up the other things on Mother’s list, said “please put this on Mother’s bill,” and we headed for the buggy outside.

It didn’t take Mother long to rip into the bag, pour out a goodly portion into a big bowl, and retrieve a cup!

Now, Aunt Freda would have a cup and saucer that matched, and a dinner and bread and butter plate, all thanks to a bag of puffed wheat!

None of us much liked puffed wheat. And there was always two or three bags tucked away in the cupboard out in the summer kitchen...bought simply for the dish inside.

There was no doubt Mr. Briscoe knew exactly what my sister Audrey was up to when she came into the store with the long knitting needle. He paid no attention to her at all. And when I asked Audrey if what she was doing was considered dishonest, she said, “certainly not...we bought a bag of puffed wheat, didn’t we?”

And when I visited school friends in Northcote, and stayed for a meal, their tables too were set with an assortment of miss-matched dishes.

And always there would be a plate, or a saucer, with the fluted edge, circled in a gold rim, and with small red and pink flowers, right out of a bag of puffed wheat!

Advice on Internet, telephone fraud Const. Mark Yarmel of the Renfrew detachment of the OPP addressed this audience at the 27th annual general meeting of the Renfrew and Area Seniors’ Home Support. The meeting took place at the Golden Age Activity Centre June 17. Const. Yarmel spoke about telephone and Internet fraud and how not to become a victim. He provided a stark reminder that not everyone who works in sales will care about our well-being. He stressed the importance of being aware of the scams we may face in our own households.
