It is a band of intrepid volunteers dedicated to making the town look fantastic, with hanging flower pots, planted trees, flower beds, boxes and by maintaining gardens throughout the main street and other areas in town.

Store must absorb the loss of propane tanks
By Darci Semeschuk RCMP released a report involving a theft of propane tanks from Souris. According to Corporal Michael Boychuk on June 19, 2018 Souris RCMP received a report of a theft of 18 Tank Traders propane tanks from the Souris Bigway. The theft occurred between June 17 and June 19. Thieves cut off the locks on the outdoor cages that house the propane tanks. The approximate value of the stolen propane tanks is $1000.00. When filled, each of the 20-pound tanks weighs about 37 pounds. Bigway co-owner Darryl Moreau said that the locks had been cut off the cage housing the tanks. “We are in the process of improving our storage system,” stated Moreau. “Unfortunately this something that we would not make an insurance claim for so it is a loss the store will have to absorb.” Moreau says that the store currently does not have a surveillance system so they were unable to supply any video to police. Corporal Boychuk said that as of June 25 there were no leads on the investigation. Earlier speculation that the theft may be drug related was also put to rest by Boychuk in a statement, “I am not aware of any leads on the propane tanks and cannot link it to the drug culture.” Police are investigating and are asking for the public’s help in identifying any suspects related to this theft. Anyone with information on this matter is urged to contact Blue Hills RCMP - Souris Detachment at (204) 483-2854. If you wish to remain Anonymous call: Manitoba Crime Stoppers toll free at 1-800222-8477 (TIPS) or SUBMIT: a secure tip online at www.manitobacrimestoppers.com or TEXT: “TIPMAN” plus your message to CRIMES (274637). If your information leads to an arrest or charge you may be eligible for a cash award of up to $2000.00
Souris Valley Bigway will have to absorb the loss incurred with the theft of 18 propane tanks after thieves broke into the cage housing the tanks. PHOTO/DEBBIE BUTLER Police have no leads to date.

Keep Pets Safe in the Heat Submitted by the Humane Society The summer months can be uncomfortable—even dangerous—for pets and people. It’s difficult enough simply to cope with rising temperatures, let alone thick humidity, but things really get tough in areas that are hit with the double blow of intense heat and storm-caused power outages, sometimes with tragic results. Never leave your pets in a parked car Not even for a minute. Not even with the car running and air conditioner on. On a warm day, temperatures inside a vehicle can rise rapidly to dangerous levels. On an 85-degree day, for example, the temperature inside a car with the windows opened slightly can reach 102 degrees within 10 minutes. After 30 minutes, the temperature will reach 120 degrees. Your pet may suffer irreversible organ damage or die. Learn how to help a pet left inside a hot car by taking action or calling for help. Local law enforcement can follow this handy guide for how to proceed. Limit exercise on hot days Take care when exercising your pet. Adjust intensity and duration of exercise in accordance with the temperature. On very hot days, limit exercise to early morning or evening hours, and be especially careful with pets with white-colored ears, who are more susceptible to skin cancer, and short-nosed pets, who typically have difficulty breathing. Asphalt gets very hot
Hot summer temperatures can have a dangerous effect on your pet. Make sure you have ample water for your animal. If you’re out for a walk take advantage of pet watering stations like the one located at the Souris Plaindealer’s office. Pictured here, Lady Bella takes a few moments to have a drink and rest while her owner, Eyvonne Hislop waits for her to decide to carry on their walk. PHOTO/DARCI SEMESCHUK
and can burn your pet’s paws, so walk your dog on the grass if possible. Always carry water with you to keep your dog from dehydrating. Don’t rely on a fan: Pets respond differently to heat than humans do. (Dogs, for instance, sweat primarily through their feet.) And fans don’t cool off pets as effectively as they do people. Hot asphalt: When the temperature is
very high, don’t let your dog linger on hot asphalt. Being so close to the ground, your pooch’s body can heat up quickly, and sensitive paw pads can burn. Keep walks during these times to a minimum. Provide ample shade and water Any time your pet is outside, make sure they have protection from heat and sun and plenty of fresh, cold water. In heat waves, add ice to water when possible. Tree shade
and tarps are ideal because they don’t obstruct airflow. A doghouse does not provide relief from heat—in fact, it makes it worse. Watch for signs of heatstroke Extreme temperatures can cause heatstroke. Some signs of heatstroke are heavy panting, glazed eyes, a rapid heartbeat, difficulty breathing, excessive thirst, lethargy, fever, dizziness, lack of coordination, profuse salivation, vomiting, a deep red or purple tongue, seizure, and unconsciousness. Animals are at particular risk for heat stroke if they are very old, very young, overweight, not conditioned to prolonged exercise, or have heart or respiratory disease. Animals with flat faces, like Pugs and Persian cats, are more susceptible to heat stroke since they cannot pant as effectively. These pets, along with the elderly, the overweight, and those with heart or lung diseases, should be kept cool in airconditioned rooms as much as possible. Fireworks: Please leave pets at home when you head out to Canada Day celebrations, and never use fireworks around pets. Exposure to lit fireworks can potentially result in severe burns or trauma, and even unused fireworks can contain hazardous materials. Many pets are also fearful of loud noises and can become lost, scared or disoriented, so it’s best to keep your little guys safe from the noise in a quiet, sheltered and escape-proof area of your home.

ANSWER:
Take Initiative. You are the type of person who helps the team and individual players set goals and work towards achieving these goals. Your experience allows you to develop and run open tryouts, plan and effectively run 2-3 practices per week, develop and communicate game plans, and be able to take advantage of ‘coaching moments’ during games and practices. Your engaging personality would thrive on the opportunity to recruit players ahead of time, to the team.
Here’s How It Works:
Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

EDITORIAL Shaped by Hardship By Ken Waddell If you are old enough to have been born in the Great Depression, you are now 80 years old. Few people alive today have adult level memories of those terrible years, 1929-39, when jobs were scarce, farm prices low, crop yields very poor and the combination of heat, dust and despair permeated every pore. Called the Dirty Thirties, that decade was as bad as all that was written about it and probably worse. The grandchildren of the Depression are now aging as well and the traits that the Depression etched into the hearts, minds and souls are fading as well. It used to be taken for granted that you saved everything, from newspapers to cardboard and wooden boxes. You made everything last by repairing and patching. Fine china was saved for special occasions. Clothing, even socks, were mended, pants and overalls patched, sometimes patches on patches. Although always a reality, scrap quilts thrived in the Depression and the years that followed it. When people got a bit of money, they bought “nice” things to have and to keep. It might be better cookware, china, a newer car, better farm machinery. And they saved things, stored them, hoarded even. It is out of the Depression that hoarding was born. “You might just need it some day” went to such extent that it became an obsession. I have been on countless yards and in innumerable homes where the owners have reluctantly come to the realization, they will never live long enough to repair or restore all their projects. As we run out of Depression-era influence, not all the changes are good. We used to save stuff, now it is pitched out and often not to recycle or re-use, but straight to the garbage bin. Landfills are accumulating at an alarming rate. People are becoming painfully aware of plastic debris in our oceans. Strangely, nobody is asking how all that plastic junk got into the oceans. It wasn’t carried to the ocean’s edge by little kids throwing away their candy wrappers at the seashore. It was dumped there by cities and municipalities simply loading barges of garbage and dumping it into the ocean. This is pollution at its very worst. People used to save to buy stuff. Now everything can be, and is, financed. Few pay cash for cars, homes or household furniture. People used to grow their own gardens, today, few even know where food comes from. The Depression cast a long shadow, shadows that we have all been affected by. As we outrun and outlive those shadows, darker shadows of debt, a loss of self-help and self reliance and a sense of happiness with our blessings are being cast across our lives, our thoughts, our very souls. Why did I write this? It is so I will remember, we all will remember what shaped us and continues to shape us. The Depression made us what we are and it’s important to remember the past. To know from whence we have come. It’s even more important to know where we are going. In spite of the depths of despair the Depression caused, it also built in a determination and self-reliance that has become scarcer today than it should have. The secret is to glean the good parts of the Depression era-infused traits and cast aside the bad ones. Knowing the difference is the trick.

Souris Legion News By Gale Collinson We used five tables for our cribbage players on June 20. Pat Giesbrecht and Gale Collinson finished the evening with the highest score. Alys Will and Viola Logan took second prize and Joan Phillips with Betty Devins ended in third spot. Because this was the last cribbage evening until September extra prizes were given out. Betty Lou Noble and Norm Davis took fourth place and fifth went to Lynn and Gord McDowell. We even had a “booby” award and this went to Wendy Bilton with Lyle Edgerton. The lucky ticket on the 50-50 draw belonged to Betty Devins. Our bingo evening of June 21 was attended by 19 optimistic noisemakers. Making a little more noise than others with three shouts were Norma Dodd and Gale Collinson. Two yells came from Amy Heath, Betty Devins, Doris Dron, Joan Phillips and Glady Skoc. Viola Logan was very quiet and waited for the Little House before hollering. For her patience Viola received $25. Our Entertainment Committee were barbecuing during the Crescent Cruise
on June 21. They offered great burgers, hotdogs, popcorn and drinks. They were pleased with the number of people partaking and so I believe they will be doing this again. Please watch for them. Our meat draw on June 22 was a quiet evening with winning tickets definitely spread out. Bev Mitchell managed to collect two packages of meat as did the household of Lee and Dave Johnson. Linda Dereniwski held the lucky number on the 50-50 draw that was worth $67. The “Chase the Ace” pot amounted to $1,790.50 and Nancy Birks had the opportunity to take it home. However the Ace of Spades was not in a mood to show up so it will be waiting for next week. Just a note to keep in mind – after this Ace is found, the price of a strip of tickets will be going up to $2. Pork loin, potatoes, veggies and dessert were on the supper menu. A little bird told me that Norma Dodd and Brent Fallis will celebrate their birthdays on June 25. Congratulations. Cribbage and bingo are finished until September. Please watch for the starting dates. Meat draws and “Chase the Ace” will continue to be held on Fridays.

Ladies Auxiliary too often unsung heroes By Darci Semeschuk They’re an integral part of any community, they’re responsible for funeral lunches, raising money for various organizations, and many other activities but all too often they go unnoticed, unnoticed until they are no more. They are the local women’s groups and in many communities few people even know they exist. The Souris Legion Ladies Auxiliary is one of those groups and the work they do, and have done for the past sixty years is vital. The Legion Ladies Auxiliary to the Souris Branch # 60 of the Royal Canadian Legion received their charter in 1959. Their mission is to assist members in need, to help the Branch, and to aid organizations in need of support and they have done so without fail for that entire time. However, according to Legion Ladies representative Rae McBurney, the group is getting older and there are fewer of them to take on the tasks that they normally undertake. “There’s just so few of us left and not many new members want to join,” she explained the dwindling numbers. “We will keep going as long as we can but we do need new volunteers.” In fact when the organization first began in 1959, two ladies were part of that group, Norma Hinks and Anna Parham are still members today, sixty years later. “They were two charter members that are still members of the organization, although they are no longer active,” explained McBurney. “Norma Hinks and Anne Parham will receive their pins next year for 60 years of membership.” The Legion ladies have contributed to the community in many ways over the years. The Auxiliary raises the majority of their revenue from catering, for funeral lunches, for retirement and Christmas dinners, lunch three days during Legion Week, lunch one day at the Survivor Bonspiel, and lunch at the Scarecrow Days Flea Market, as well as suppers at the Friday meat draw twice a month and hosting the annual Poppy Day Tea. Over the past ten years the Auxiliary has raised over $68,000 through these endeavours. Of the money raised through catering, approximately $3,000 went back into kitchen equipment for the kitchen at the Legion, $3,400 to the Branch Poppy Fund, as well as $31,000 assistance to the Branch itself. These funds were used by the Branch to replace the glass washer,
to replace the ice machine, and to replace two air conditioners, as well as regular operations. As well as assistance to the Branch, the Auxiliary has contributed to various fundraising activities in the community of Souris such as the Souris Pool fund, the Avalon Theatre projector project, the Souris Congregate Meals commercial dishwasher, and most recently, the Souris Health Auxiliary ultrasound project. Every year the Auxiliary makes donations to the Souris Arts Council, the Souris Food Bank, the Christmas Cheer Board, and the Legion Athletic Camp at the Peace Gardens, the Deer Lodge Centre, Ronald McDonald House, the Provincial Council Scholarship fund, and Brandon RHA Cancer Care. Assistance has also been given to numerous local families undergoing extraordinary medical expenses, for various reasons, to help with those expenses. The Auxiliary provides at least one, sometimes two, $500 bursaries to graduating students from Souris Collegiate, and also sponsors students to Legion Athletic Camp. It’s not difficult to become a member of the Legion Ladies Auxiliary. McBurney explained the process, “Over the years membership eligibility in the or-

ganization has changed. Previously in order to be eligible it was necessary to have a service number of a relative who had served in the Armed Forces. Today, all are welcome to become members of the Auxiliary, and new members who are interested in contributing to the Legion in their service to Veterans, and to the community in which we live, are always welcome.” In fact joining the Legion Ladies Auxiliary has never been easier. New members can contact membership chairman Leona Bradshaw at 204-483-2347 or any member of the executive. Pearl Marshall is

you can see we are in need of younger blood. Only 20 of our members are currently active in the group. We are in need of some younger blood.”

submitted The Souris Glenwood Foundation 25th Anniversary Celebration Evening, held April 12, was a huge success! Approximately 400 attended the evening and a profit of $29,187.35 was realized. Much planning went into the April 12 evening, not only to celebrate 25 years for the Foundation, but also to recognize Dr. Ben Sutter and other community-minded people who worked diligently to have the Souris Glenwood Foundation officially registered as a Community Foundation in1993. The Foundation Board truly appreciated the support received from individual and business sponsorships, personal donations, and all who attended the evening. The generous support of all present for the fabulous Rainbow Bucket Auctions, Silent and Live Auctions contributed significantly to the success of the evening. The Board thanks Bob Edgerton for auctioneering all the Live Auction items. Doors opened at 6 p.m. and guests were entertained with live music provided by Erin McLennan, Blair Maycher, Larry Halyk and Greg Harasymchuk. Sandy Sanderson, MC for the evening, welcomed everyone and kept the evening running smoothly. Darryl Jackson gave an interesting history of the Souris Glenwood Foundation and paid tribute to Dr. Ben Sutter. He concluded by stating, “Wouldn’t Dr. Sutter be pleased and very proud of this successful evening.” Darryl also introduced former Board members from 1993-2018 and recognized them for their contributions
throughout the years. Carolyn Durston (Sutter), Dr. Joan Sutter, and Darryl Sutter attended the evening. Janet Klassen (Sutter) and Glen Sutter were unable to be present. Darryl spoke eloquently of their Father and Mother, Ben and Margaret. His words made all those present realize the contribution the Sutter family has made to our Souris community. Dr Sutter’s vision in establishing the Souris Glenwood Foundation will benefit our community for generations to come. A highlight of the evening was a $100,000 donation made to the Foundation by Brad Kirbyson in Memory of his brother, Greg Kirbyson. This money will be used to establish a scholarship to be presented annually at the Souris School Graduation ceremony. Lisa Tosh, on behalf of the Kappa Chapter, Beta Sigma Phi also presented a $2,000 donation to the Foundation. The evening continued with the popular comedian, Matt Falk, who entertained the audience for an hour. This was very well received! The 2017 Grants were awarded to ten community projects, totalling $9,050. Marc Bellon of Prairie Rose Meats provided a delicious lunch to end the evening, along with anniversary cake made by Minary Homestyle Bakery. The Souris Glenwood Foundation Board members say “thank you” to everyone involved in the 25th Celebration evening. It was truly an enjoyable community event that exceeded all of our expectations.
