Jaime-Lynne’s clothing store opens in Souris

New kid on the block brings clothes shopping back to Souris - Jaime-Lynne’s Clothing has opened its doors in Souris. The new kid on the block will carry a wide array of women’s clothing as well as girls and baby items. Jaime-Lynne’s is located on Crescent Avenue in Souris and is open Tuesday - Friday 10:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m. Pictured: Jamie Lukacin (L) is finalizing a sale with Jenna Clemmons (centre) and Jesse Paul on September 30. PHOTO/DEBBIE BUTLER by Darci Semeschuk There’s a new kid on the block and Souris and area women are happy about it. A new clothing store, Jaime-Lynne’s, has opened its door on Crescent Avenue in the former Lagasse’s Art Studio. “I chose Souris as a place to open my pop up store and I couldn’t be happier,” commented Jaime Lukacin. “I have only been open for two day as of October 4, not including my soft opening and grand opening on September 30 so I don’t really know

what to expect yet. The grand opening was amazing so if that keeps up, I’ll be happy.” Specializing in good quality leggings, tops, sweaters and other everyday items that you just can’t find in Souris, Jaime-Lynne’s caters to every taste. “I try to keep an array of sizes and I only choose reliable, good quality suppliers for my stock. I wouldn’t carry anything that I wouldn’t wear myself. That’s important,” she remarked. “I also stock

a selection of girls clothing up to size 12 - 13 as well as baby items. If you need something, chances are I’ll have it.” Jaime carries women’s sizes ranging from small to 3X. She says her clothes aren’t cheap but they aren’t really expensive either. “It’s a mid-range price,” she stated. “I don’t carry anything over $100 and I also try to limit the items to one or two sets per size to keep them unique.” Continued on page 3

Lead by coach Brian Yon, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the fifth year in a row the Sabres have won the title and they are the only team that has won since the 7s league was founded in 2012. It wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t easy as the Sabres beat Dauphin in a tight game decider 7-0 on a wet, miserable day. Well done, Sabres!

Jaime-Lynne’s clothing store opens in Souris Continued from page 1 The only exception to the $100 rule is the diaper bags Jaime stocks. She has a baby and can’t resist buying up those lovely bags from Timi & Leslie! Customers may be familiar with the companies that Jaime deals with. She is particularly fond of UmGee and also likes the quality of Trend Notes, Emma’s Closet, Steevyer and Mon Ami. “I don’t buy from the regular designer labels because I just can’t compete with larger retailers,” she explained. “These are smaller companies with good quality and lovely styles and I believe a lot

of women will like what I have.” Jaime says she wants to hold unique shopping days like Ladies Night or appointment shopping. There is a possibility for organizations to hold evening events at her shop as she does have room to do this. She is open to ideas and will do all she can to accommodate shoppers. Currently Jaime is open Tuesday – Friday from 10:00 a.m. until 3:00 p.m. She has to make it back home to meet the school bus but she does plan to expand those hours to include Saturdays in the near future.

“I am in the process of trying to hire staff and once I do that, depending on demand, I will open more hours,” she said. Those hours could also include Thursday and Friday evenings in busy times such as the upcoming Christmas season. Once staff is in place, Jaime will announce her new hours. In the mean time she has no phone so if you wish to connect with Jaime, you can do so by email: jaimelynnesleggings@gmail.com Stop in at Jaime-Lynne’s and see what she has to offer in Souris’s newest clothing store.

by Reena Nerbas Dear Reena, Do you have a recipe for making your own bubble bath? Thanks. Wilma Dear Wilma, I love this recipe because it uses common household ingredients. Bubble Nut Bath Recipe: In a bowl, combine half cup (125mL) honey, quarter cup (60 mL) gentle liquid soap, 1 tbsp. (15 mL) almond or vanilla extract and 1 tbsp. (15mL) glycerin. Shake and add to bath. Or combine 1 tbsp. (15mL) shampoo with one eighth cup (25mL) safflower (or canola) oil; pour under running water. Tip: While you are at it, why not sprinkle a handful of rose petals into the water; luxurious! ••• Dear Reena, I have a laundry problem; a lip repair (like Lypsol) went through the washer and dryer and has left greasy stains on the front of my good sweatshirt in several places. Any ideas how this can be handled or is this now a permanent stain? Also, when grease stains appear on pillow cases (after guests)

how can I get them out? Thank-you for your great column and wise tips. Marilyn Hi Marilyn, Here are two options for both challenges: Soak fabrics in hot water and Oxy Clean or soak the fabric separately in half-cup Arm and Hammer washing soda and enough hot water to cover the clothes for 30 minutes. Wash as usual. Air dry. Repeat until stains are gone. If all else fails, you can zap stains using RIT dye remover according to the directions on the box. Note fabric color will be significantly lightened. ••• Feedback from wise readers Re: Combat shrinking pie crusts I find that when rolling my pie crusts they tend to shrink a little so I wait a short length of time before placing them in the pie plate. This may help Robert when making crusts for lemon pies. Barbara Re: Fruit flies I recently had an infestation of fruit flies, and a lady I know at work mentioned she had a large number of the

pesky flies as well. I came up with a trap that works quite well, and can be made in a minute or two. You need some paper, tape, a couple of small screws/ bolts and a tall drinking glass. The first step is forming a paper cone and taping it together with a small opening at the tip. Next, tape a screw/bolt, about 1-1/2” in length, to both sides of the cone near the tip. Finally, put some bait in the bottom of the glass. I’ve found a small amount of red wine works well. Finally, place the cone in the top of the glass, and you are done. When you get a number of flies in the trap, take it outside, and lift the cone, letting the flies fly off, and replace the cone in the glass. The purpose of the screws/bolts is to ensure a snug fit between the cone and the top of the glass. Cheers, Michael ••• Hints from Linda • If you don’t bake a lot and store baking powder in your cupboard for over a year old, it may not be active. Instead use it in the laundry; it’s a wonderful whitener/brightener. Just dump the old baking powder in

a white wash and it brightens up the load. • I live in a high rise building and it is a must that I clean the drains, sinks, showers and toilets with baking soda and vinegar and hot water NOT BOILING. I lived in Winnipeg in high rises for many years and my neighbor a retired plumber advised me that if done on a regular basis every three months I would never need to call him. I have stayed with that trick ever since and have never had to call a plumber. No harsh chemicals just products that I always keep on hand. I keep a huge bottle of vinegar and a box of baking soda under the sink cabinet but other people may use the ones in the fridge and freezer because they should be changed every three months anyway. Note: Every user assumes all risks of injury or damage resulting from the implementation of any suggestions in this column. Test all products on an inconspicuous area first. I enjoy your questions and tips, keep them coming. Need a Presenter on the topic: Effective Speaking or The Power of Words? Check out: Reena.ca

This Week in History by Tyler Bugg October 2: French explorer Jacques Cartier, on his second voyage to the New World, finds the native village of Hochelaga on an island on the St. Lawrence River. Cartier saw an impressive settlement, where a thousand members of the Iroquois came out to greet the French explorer and his crew, as the entrance to the fabled passage to China. However, rapids prevented him from exploring deeper along the river. The site of Hochelaga is later where the city of Montreal is built. (1535) October 3: The final battle of the Second Triumvirate of the Roman Republic took place near the Greek city of Philippi, where Marcus Brutus and Cassius, the leaders of the assassination plot of Julius Caesar, were cornered by the armies of Caesar’s adopted heir Octavian and Caesar’s trusted lieutenant Mark Antony faced off. The brutal battle resulted in victory for

Antony and Octavian, and both Cassius and Brutus would commit suicide in the aftermath to prevent being captured. (42 BC) October 4: In the battle over who would lead the faltering Chinese Empire as the Yuan Dynasty collapsed, the largest naval battle in history took place on Lake Poyang, the largest freshwater lake in China for over a month until it was decided this day. The Ming fleet lead by Zhu Yuanzhang, with 200,000 men was outnumbered by over three to one by the Han navy commanded by Chen Youliang, but the Ming emerged victorious, killing most of the Han army and it’s commander. Zhu would then claim the throne as the Hongwu Emperor five years later. (1363) October 5: “Bond. James Bond.” Dr. No, the first official James Bond film, with Scottish born actor Sean Connery as the lead role, premiered in London, England at the London Pavilion.

Sadat, who just three years before signed the Camp David Accords to establish peace between Egypt and Israel and won the Nobel Peace Prize with Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin, was seen as traitor to the Arab nationalists and Islamist movements.

The goal of the invasion was to dismantle the Taliban and deny al-Qaeda a safe haven, as this was where the mastermind behind the 9/11 attacks, Osama bin Laden was believed to be hiding. (2001) October 8: The political magazine Der Spiegel published an article exposing the state of the West German army after a NATO exercise as “only partially ready to defend” the nation, sparking a political crisis when Minister of Defense Franz Josef Strauss, ordered the arrest of the owner and editor of Der Spiegel and the author of the article for treason. However, the author was in Spain when he was arrested, and the arrest was considered illegal, leading to the downfall of Strauss when it was revealed he lied about his involvement, and the confirmation of free speech and democracy in post-war Germany.

On Wednesday, September 28, it was disappointing to see Cribbage players using only 3 ½ tables. Sure would like to see more out for this fun evening. Betty Devins and Joan Phillips finished with the highest score. Taking second prize again was Evelyn Harlton and Deb Robinson with Joan Dufily and Lorna Binions ending in third spot. The 50-50 draw was won by Ken Ryckman. Our Bingo evening

of Thursday, September 29, was attended by 25 optimistic noisemakers. Most of the noise came from Joan Phillips and Marie Neilson as they both were able to shout three times. Marie’s last yell was on the Little House and she shared the pot of $37 with Lil Atchison. Double hollers came from Roberta Dodd, Jack Rose, Gale Collinson, and Lee Johnson. Our meat draw on Friday, September 30, was well attended. The lucky tickets were well spread over the Clubroom and only Pat Bauldic was able to collect two meat packages. Keith Davidson won

the 50-50 draw which was a nice $100. The pot for “Chase the Ace” was $793.50 and Carol Urbanowski tried her hand at locating the Ace of Spades. The Ace did not cooperate and so we will have a go at it next week. Barbecued hamburgers and oven roasted veggies were our food of the evening. We have just received Volume 7 of the Military Recognition Books. If you wish a copy, please come to the Clubroom. There is no charge for this very interesting publication. Our 2017 membership cards are now available. The cost is $45.

Highlighted calls for service in Souris RCMP area were as follows: September 26 – Police responded to a call of a youth that was causing self-injury. The youth was taken to hospital for treatment and arrested for being intoxicated. On

the same day, Souris Detachment received a call about the Canada Revenue Agency scam again. No money exchanged hands. September 30 – Did you lose your bag of sugar….again? I hate it when that happens! A bag with white powder was found near a local business. It has been seized so that no one “gets baked” with it! Friday FYI: Criminal Record check requests

are steadily increasing. This time of year can be very busy. Don’t leave it to the last moment! It can take upwards of 2 weeks for a regular criminal record check.

Southwest Sabres overwhelmed with support by Darci Semeschuk It requires a lot of money to play organized sports with travel and equipment costs always on the rise and fundraising has become a necessary part of team organization. The Southwest Sabres football program is no different. The cost to suit up a Southwest Sabres player is approximately $800. That includes a helmet, $400; shoulder pads. $280; jersey, $75; pants, $40, all of which is ‘owned’ by the Sabres football program. The player pays the club a $250 fee to use this equipment and is responsible for purchasing their own, girdle, cleats and mouth guard. On top of equipment, the program is responsible for travel costs, painting lines on field ($300 per year) and referees. The referee alone costs approximately $300 per game and with three home games, it adds up pretty quickly. Add on additional field maintenance expenses. And the costs soar. Team manager, Sandra Vinck, helps arrange fundraising activities to raise money to cover some of those expenses and the Souris Glenwood Chamber of Commerce Scarecrow weekend and Murphy’s Irish Pub gave

them a good opportunity to do just that. “The Southwest Sabres football team are over whelmed with the support they received during Scarecrow weekend,” stated Vinck in an email to the Plaindealer.

“Saturday was designated as the Sabres fundraising day.” The day kicked off with a team-built yard sale. Crowds were plentiful as people were out looking for a great deal. Well, the Sabres had a

deal for everyone enabling the team to make a profit of $675. Next on the fundraising agenda was the meat draw at Murphy’s Lounge. The Lounge was a buzzing as every seat in the place was

filled. The large crowd was full of awesome supporters as the Sabres left there with a $1,700 pay cheque. “The Sabres send out a special “thank you” to Barb and Sean Murphy for being such great

hosts for this event,” remarked a grateful Vinck. “This money will be put towards the purchase of equipment for the safety of the players.” The Southwest Sabres football team thank everyone for their support.

Southwest Sabres football team is grateful to the community and business people of Souris who supported their fundraising efforts on Scarecrow Days weekend. It costs approximately $800 per player to put a team on the field and much of that is raised through fundraising activities like the team yard sale and the meat draw at Murphy’s Irish Pub.

Organizers happy with support shown for local family on September 30. Eissner and another friend, Ken Kempthorne, arranged a community barbecue in hopes of raising awareness of the battle facing Clint Heath after his diagnosis of Stage 4 Lymphoma last March. Repots indicate that hundreds of people came out to show their support for the family. While no dollar amounts were available to report, the organizers did say they were happy with the event. Heath has undergone six rounds of chemotherapy and three rounds of bone marrow transplants. They are currently waiting for information from doctors in Winnipeg that they hope to receive this week. Clint’s wife, Amy, and their two children were pleased with the support the community showed them at the barbecue. The organizers have set up a Go Fund Me page that can be accessed at w w w. g o f u n d m e . com/2nwaqqk.

Words To Think About: by Dorothy M. Loughran On looking back we wonder, on the things that we have done, And we sometimes wonder, how the race is won! For life’s a game of pitch and toss, we can’t win all the way, Don’t count the cost if you have lost-, you’ll win another day! TIPS: • Make moving a little easier by marking boxes with coloured markers for each different room, and/or write on each box in big letters which room you want these boxes in! When sorting your things for moving place a box close by marked garage sale, and these articles readily available for your sale. • To take off grease from soup or gravy, swish a lettuce leaf gently and slowly over the surface. The lettuce should absorb the grease! That’s all for this week. Take care and we hope to hear from you soon.

Get Vaccinated – Don’t Spread the Flu

submitted Every year, the flu season in Manitoba begins in late fall and usually lasts until spring. For 20162017, the flu vaccine is available free of charge to all Manitobans. It offers protection against four flu virus strains, including H1N1. Prairie Mountain Health launches its flu campaign during the last week of October. Watch for ads and posters in your home community advertising flu clinic dates and locations. Check out the Prairie Mountain Health website at www.prairiemountainhealth.ca and our Facebook and Twitter page for all clinic date infor-

mation! Starting October 12 our appointment line will be open for the public to call in and schedule an appointment for those clinics that require one. What is the Flu and How is it Spread? The flu is not a stomach virus, nor is it the common cold. The flu is a respiratory virus, and it is spread when an infected person coughs or sneezes. You can also get the flu when a person touches a surface with flu virus on it and then touches his or her nose, mouth, or eyes. The flu is very contagious, and people can spread the virus before they show any symptoms. Some people will not have

symptoms, but can carry the virus and spread it to others. The flu can lead to serious complications such as bacterial infections, bronchitis, pneumonia, and kidney or heart failure. What is the Flu Vaccine? For most people, the flu vaccine is given as a needle in the arm. Healthy children, 2 to 17 years of age can also receive a spray that is put inside the nose (FluMist®). All flu vaccines are approved by Health Canada and will be provided at no charge to Manitobans. Every year, scientists monitor the global spread of flu and decide what flu viruses will most likely cause widespread illness. The flu vaccine helps your body recognize these flu viruses so it can protect you. Why Do I Need A Flu Shot Every Year? Because flu viruses change over time, each year a new flu vaccine has to be developed. The protection offered by a flu shot will also decrease over time, so it is very important to get a flu shot every year. Who Should Get the Flu Vaccine? The flu vaccine is recommended for all Manitobans over 6 months of age. Some people are at greater risk of serious complications from the flu. The flu vaccine is strongly recommended for the following individuals: children age 6 months to 59 months, those with a chronic illness, seniors aged 65 years or older, healthy pregnant women, residents of personal care homes or long- term care facilities, health care workers and first responders, individuals of Aboriginal ancestry, and people who are severely overweight or obese. The flu vaccine is also recommended for household contacts or caregivers of these people. Are There Any Side Effects? Vaccines are known to be very safe. It is much safer to get the flu vaccine than to get the flu. The most common side effect of the injectable flu vaccine is redness, soreness, and swelling where the needle was given. Some people will experience muscle aches or fever, lasting 1-2 days. With the intranasal flu vaccine, the most common side effects are a runny nose or nasal congestion. How do I Find out More Information about the Flu? You can contact your local public health office, nurse practitioner, pharmacy, or physician clinic. You can also visit http://www.gov.mb.ca/health/ flu/index.html for more information on the flu and to find flu clinics in your area.

RM of Pipestone prepares for CBC Original Series to film locally In the fall of 2015 the RM of Pipestone was contacted by a researcher for the CBC Original Series “Still Standing”. Over the course of a few months information was collected by the researcher regarding the communities of Reston, Sinclair, Cromer and Pipestone, for the possibility of the show to be filmed in one of the towns. Still Standing follows a Canadian comedian Jonny Harris across the country. He discovers the hidden comedy in Canada’s far-flung small towns. Each week, Jonny takes a hi-

larious and heart-warming journey to find humour in the unlikeliest of places -- small towns on the ropes. After immersing himself in the lives of local characters and unearthing the tall tales in these tiny towns, Jonny delivers a rousing original stand-up comedy routine -- a toast, not a roast -- for the whole community. “This is an excellent opportunity for our Municipality to showcase our growth, along with providing a memorable economic endeavor to the area.” identified Tanis Chalmers, Manager

of Economic Development. Based on the information the RM of Pipestone was able to provide over the past year about the Municipality, they have decided to film an episode in Reston in October 2016. “Our Municipal incentives and $10 lots fascinated the CBC researcher, along with our ability to continue to be a growing community following the recent years flooding.” stated Chalmers.

Any questions can be directed to any of the Foundation Board members: Glen Tosh, Andy Barclay, Greg Harasymchuk, Sandy Sanderson, Darryl Jackson, Harvey Veldhouse, Lois Brown, Cindy Scott, Glenda McConnell, Darcy Gerow, Barb Falloon. The 2016 grants will be presented on Thursday, December 1, at the Souris District Arts Council Concert in the Avalon Theatre.

Souris community notes from the archives of the CDC submitted Tourism review: According to numbers tallied by Lon Turner, Economic Development Officer for Souris-Glenwood, the 2016 summer was busier than ever. Over 4,000 Visitor and Community Guide books were distributed throughout Manitoba this year and you feel the increase in activity around town as many people came to see Souris.

Let’s see how the numbers add up: Hillcrest Museum boasted over 2,700 visitors, up 500 from 2015. The Souris railway Museum was so busy they decided they would continue to be open, by appointment from September – June 2017. The Plum Museum and Visitor’s Centre saw over 1140 visitors and thousands of tourists from all over walked the Souris Swinging Bridge.

The campground and pool were busy as well. They taught over 900 swimming lessons and averaged 150 – 200 swimmers a day. The campground had over 70 monthly rentals, 2,814 daily service rentals and 153 unserviced rentals. Message from the Mayor Darryl Jackson: The last number of years, our residents, both before and since the amal-

gamation of Souris-Glenwood, have done a wonderful job of recycling. As a result, this reduces the amount of material going to the landfill. For those who are new residents please be advised that we do weekly curbside pick up of recycled materials. For those in the country, recyclables can be delivered to the 24-hour drop off at the recycling centre in the building right behind the fire hall.

Annual flu shot campaign set to go within PMH PMH news release The month of October features shorter and cooler days, falling leaves, Halloween and maybe most importantly, signifies it’s time to start thinking about getting your annual flu shot. Prairie Mountain Health (PMH) will launch its seasonal flu shot campaign during the last week of October and free flu clinics are scheduled in various communities from then until the middle of November. The “Get vaccinated, don’t spread the flu campaign” kicks off in the health region this year on Saturday, October 22nd in Brandon at the Nurses Residence Gym within Brandon Regional Health Centre (BRHC). It’s the first of five flu shot clinics that will be held in Brandon all at the BRHC. In PMH North, the first clinics are set for the communities of Dauphin, Meadow Portage, Spence Lake and Swan River on Monday, October 24th. Within PMH South, the first

scheduled clinics will also start October 24th in the communities of Binscarth, Boissevain and Reston. Residents are advised to watch for ads in local newspapers, listen to local radio, or check out posters in or around your home community for flu clinic dates, times and locations. The PMH website (prairiemountainhealth.ca) has the complete listing of flu shot clinics in your area. You can also ‘like’ us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter @PrairieMtHealth for up to date information. Depending where you live in the region, some clinics require appointments which will be clearly indicated. Starting October 12 you can call the toll free line (1-877-646-3888) to make your appointment if one is needed in your community. Once again this year, the seasonal flu shot will be available to all Manitobans at no charge. It will offer protection against four flu virus strains, including

H1N1. The flu vaccine is recommended for everyone over 6 months of age. However, immunization is especially important for those at increased risk of serious illness or complications from the flu, their caregivers and close contacts. Prairie Mountain Health reminds you that if you are 65 years of age or older, or have a chronic illness, you should also get a pneumonia vaccination. One ‘pneumo shot’ may give you a lifetime of protection. Remember to bring your Manitoba Health card and your Immunization Card(s) to the clinics. You are also advised to wear short sleeves if possible. You can also plan ahead by filling out the consent form which can be found on our website at www.prairiemountianhealth.ca. If you need more information about the flu or flu shot, contact your local public health office, nurse practitioner, pharmacy, or physician clinic.
