SSee Fair on paaggee 222

Kelly RunningObserver Staff

Maryfi eld Fair excitedly held a success-ful 100 year celebration on Thursday, July 23. Whether attending for the fi rst time or a return visitor to the annual event, people of all ages enjoyed themselves.

The fair has endured for a century and remains a mainstay in the community as it draws in new visitors each year, while also bringing back relatives and others who once lived in Maryfi eld or the surrounding area.

This year the Ag Society was elated to have a large crowd attending and off ered nu-merous attractions which were well enjoyed by all ages.

The day began with a pancake breakfast prepared by the Maryfi eld Auditorium Com-mittee and was sponsored by the Borderland Co-op.

Held along Main Street in the late morn-ing was the annual parade, which saw nu-merous entries coming from within Maryfi eld and the surrounding area. During the large parade, kids clamoured after candies, while a greenhouse drove in the parade passing out geraniums. An agricultural community the parade boasted entries of horses, 4H-ers walking their calves, tractors, and more.

Found this year on the fairgrounds was the annual Man-Sask Border Circuit horse show, as well as a Hunter/Jumper horse show.

The Man-Sask horse show welcomed 45 entries and has been a part of the fair for many years. Entrants participated in numer-ous classes for varied age groups, types of riding, and the gymkhana.

A total of eight participants entered into the Hunter/Jumper horse show, which is down from last year, but as the judge, Amanda Abraham, said, “People are out hay-ing this time of year and it’s hard to get away at this time of year always, but the number of entrants we do have are enjoying it.”

“I’m a little surprised there’s not more because they do a very good job here, they have nice jumps, and there is good prize money that can be won.”

The day also boasted fun for youth of all ages with a petting zoo set up, bouncers, a mechanical bull, the SGI safety squad with games, and entertainment by Hoop Girl at 1 p.m.

Delicious pie was made once again by Shirley Campbell, while other food was avail-able from the canteen. A chili cook off was held once again, which was well enjoyed.

According to members of the Maryfi eld Ag Society numbers were up this year within

the fair exhibits ranging from fi eld products to garden goods to plants to schoolwork, photography, crafts, and more.

In the evening, before supper, the annual exhibit auction was held with all proceeds going to STARS Air Ambulance this year.

The day concluded with sup-per followed by a performance by the Spotted Rain Dance Troupe from the Cowesses First Nation.

Found enjoying the day was Hubert and Audrey Freitag from Alameda. It was Audrey’s fi rst time to the fair, while Hubert said he had been to it in the 1970s when he was a judge.

“We thought we’d come for old time sake, it’s a fair that I don’t have to work at,” Hubert smiled.

Audrey explained that Hubert has a petting zoo which he travels with, but it was a day off for the both of them.

“It’s a nice little country fair,” Hubert added.

Working at the gate for part of the day were Don Renwick and Garry Sweeting who were very happy with how many people they had seen coming through.

“It’s a good community event,” Renwick said. “It brings people into the community. This is a unique thing they have going on.”

Sweeting stated, “It brings home families and friends every year, with this being its 100th there’s even more who have made the eff ort to come home for it.”

“Hopefully they’ll be going for another 100,” Renwick added.

Those on the Maryfi eld Ag Society were all pleased with the turnout as well. Helen Johnson and Faye Gray were working at the infor-

Holistic Management practices are becoming more popular amongst those in the cattle industry as pockets of knowledgeable individuals spread. As a way to further educate those in agriculture on Holistic Management practices an Open Gate Learning Day was held at Neil and Barbara Dennis’ ranch, Sunnybrae Acres, on Wednesday, July 22, in conjunction with Holistic Management Interna-tional (HMI) and Holistic Management Canada as one of nine learning days.

What is Holistic Management?Essentially Holistic Management is focused on

working with nature. This means integrating the Water Cycle, Mineral Cycle, Biological Community, and Energy Flow into the management of grazing cattle.

“Nature functions as wholes,” Ralph Corcoran, one of the presenters, explained. “We ranch as a whole, if we can improve one thing it improves it all.”

The idea of Holistic Management is to utilize pasture management in simulating how bison once roamed the prairies.

“If we can mimic how the buff alo moved across the country; using fences to mimic the way coyotes would surround a herd and move across the coun-try then we can improve the health of our pastures,” Corcoran said. “What we’re doing is just mimicking nature.”

“If we take care of the land fi rst, good things will happen. If we can plan for nature and still be profi table by leaving trees and sloughs, then we should so we can all share.”

This is typically done by increasing the stock density on a particular piece of land allowing them to move across the fi eld slowly. By doing this, cattle eat the full variety of vegetation then move on as a moveable fence is removed to allow them to expand their territory.

The fi rst paddock is then allowed to recuperate as the cattle move on through the pasture.

Holistic Management also sees ranchers utilize their pastures earlier in the year.

“We were out on the last day of March, but I know now I could have put them out on March 15,” Corcoran told the crowd.

In fact many in the crowd shared their dates, saying they supplemented the pastures with bails, but that the bails were oftentimes barely touched as the cattle rooted through the snow for their food.

The group also learned about the impor-tance of plant diversity meaning a higher density of plants, increased growth time allowed for vegetation, and an increased total leaf area cov-ering the ground. Each of these factors increases energy absorption by plants which in turn in-creases the amount of carbon dioxide they use in photosynthesis, while creating a healthier plant which produces a higher sugar content which is enjoyed by the cattle.

At Sunnybrae AcresDuring the fi eld day the group visited diff er-

ent paddocks near Sunnybrae Acres homestead. Neil and Barbara Dennis, trace their land back to Neil’s grandfather who homesteaded to the area in 1900. Over the past 30 years Neil has been exploring diff erent ways to make his land as productive as possible.

Neil was once a purebred cattle and sheep producer, as well as a mixed farm operator, but as he began focusing on the health of the land in his care he is a success in Holistic Manage-ment having rejuvenated a pasture seeded in 1949 through high stock density and increased land recovery time. Through this he increased the biodiversity of a pasture that had once been a crested wheat crop to now boast nearly 40 varieties of plants, while increasing the land’s water infi ltra-tion. In return this has improved the mineral cycle and has improved soil carbon sequestration.

Neil took the group out to what he called his worst pasture, where he was moving cattle – which only takes 15 minutes out of his day. Utilizing electric fences, Neil simply rolled up what had been dividing the pasture and the cattle happily moved themselves to their next paddock.

“This is the poorest land I have,” Neil ex-plained. “It was cropland and I’m now growing it back. There’s not much litter cover, but I’m growing it back and am trying to get the manure and urine dispersed evenly on it.”

“I’m using higher stock density to turn it around quicker, but quality of life comes fi rst.”

When Neil fi rst began increasing stock density, he was told that it wouldn’t be good for the cattle,

but has found that they have become happier and healthier as a result of his changed practices.

“We’ll soon see regrowth on this piece here, but because of the manure and urine they will stay on the new fi eld and not come back this way, although if I were concerned I could put the fence back up,” he explained. “This will then get 80 to 100 days to recover.”

Neil grazes his pastures taller, either while fl owering which leads cattle to eat this portion of the plant making it grow back more lush or when the fi eld has gone to seed because the cattle then

pack the seed heads back into the pasture.“I have about 600,000 pounds of beef out here

and I give them 10 acres every day,” he said.Following lunch the group was taken to a dif-

ferent fi eld just east of the homestead.Everyone was surprised by the statement that

the nearly waist high grass, though a monoculture pasture, had been grazed twice already. The land had a thick canopy covering it with rather thick ground litter, which helps keep the soil from drying out.

While walking through the fi eld, Blaine Hjerta-as, a Certifi ed Educator with Holistic Management International, drew attention to the diff erence of walking on the fi rst fi eld to walking on this one – the latter feeling much like walking on a soft carpet.

“I’ve grazed this pasture twice already, and although I don’t want to, I will graze it a third time because it’s beside the house and I don’t want to be burnt out,” Neil added.

Here Hjertaas took a shovel and uprooted a small area. The roots went deep and the soil aggre-gates were attached in clumps to the roots.

“The plant is taking in the sunshine it captures and is turning it into sugar through photosynthesis, which feeds the fungi and bacteria,” Hjertaas said. “The fungi and bacteria then aid the plant in tak-ing minerals out of the soil that they can’t usually process well.”

“Glomalin is then produced which acts as su-perglue for soil aggregates and the deeper the roots go the deeper the carbon sequestration is occur-

ring.”Back at the quonset, Hjertaas had set up an

example of soil diff erences between cropland and Neil’s pastureland. Taking a small section pulled up with a shovel he placed a fi st sized portion of soil from cropland on a grate in water as well as a fi st sized portion of Neil’s pasture-land soil. At the end of the day the cropland was no longer intact – it lay at the bottom of the jar – while very little of the pastureland eroded off of the fi st sized chunk to settle in the bottom.

Although he didn’t use non-Holistic Man-aged pastureland in the water test a portion was sitting out as an example next to portions of the other two examples that had been dug up. Neil’s pastureland had the deepest root structure out of the three and the best overall soil aggregate by sight comparison.

Thus, Hjertaas said that in the event of a fl ood, Neil’s land would best stand up to ero-sion.

The fi nal pasture the group was taken to involve what was once a straight crested wheat fi eld. Now the area boasts a large variety of vegetation, which assists in the energy capture which correlates to plant and soil health as has been described above.

“Recovery is key and this is a success story,” Hjertaas said of the pasture which used to be a straight crested wheat fi eld.

Concluding the dayAs the day came to an end the group was

amazed by the diff erence shown and described throughout the day between conventional grazing practices and Holistic Management at the Dennis’ ranch. Hjertaas’ soil visualization was undeniable, while it is unlikely a pasture can be grazed three times in a year which Neil is planning to do on the one paddock.

“My goal is to make the land better for my grandkids,” Neil explained. “When our grandfa-ther’s came here the land easily broke for them and they were able to grow great crops in those fi rst 40 or 50 years without putting anything back into the soil. We’ve been mining it for 100 years now though and it was time to start improving the land’s health.”79-11-HolisticManagement1: 79-11-Ho-listicManagement2: A group of approximately 50 individuals attended an Open Gate Learning Day at Sunnybrae Acres, a ranch owned by Neil and Barbara Dennis who follow a Holistic Management plan.

Open Gate learning at Sunnybrae Acres a focusfor local producers interested in Holistic Management

Soil from Neil Dennis’ pastureland – which he practices Holistic Management on – sits in a grate suspended in water on the left, while soil from cropland sits in a grate suspended in water on the right. According to Blaine Hjertaas, a Certifi ed Educator with Holistic Management International, the soil on the left is healthier than that on the right and will not be washed away as easily in a fl ood event while it is also able to hold more water during a drought event.


When Neil Dennis of Sunnybrae Acres removed a temporary electric fence to move cattle during the Open Gate Learning Day at his ranch on Wednesday, July 22, the cattle easily crossed the threshold where they began nibbling on fresh food, including trimming willows.

A lifetime of lake life:Marjorie Hunt’s century of memories

Lynne BellObserver Staff

Since 1912, Marjorie Scott Cowie Hunt has enjoyed a century of lake life-all at White Bear Lake-and much of it documented in her poetry. Although the 102-year-old Regina resident now lives in a care home, she regularly travelled to White Bear Lake to enjoy summers there until very recently, but still draws on memories of her days at the lake for inspiration. Hunt’s eyesight is failing, so she writes her poems by memory, until they can be dictated and transcribed on paper.

Hunt spent her rst summer at what was then known as Carlyle Lake a century ago. Born in Rocanville, an early photograph shows her in 1915-at two-years-old-sitting on her mother’s lap in the family car, a model which predated even the Ford Model T. The drive to the lake took almost an entire day, with the family driving on backroads that were really “just dirt roads”. They would travel south from Moosomin and with the aid of directions provided by the people of White Bear First Nations, would eventually navi-gate that season’s best road to the lake.

“They were really just dirt tracks,” says Hunt. “And if it was muddy, we were in real trouble. The people from White Bear not only gave us directions; they often helped push us out of the mud if we were stuck.”

“My dad would often give them a dollar for that.”

“The roads went every which way,” says Hunt. “So their help was really valuable. It was re-ally a hazardous trip. We would go from Moosomin to Carlyle Lake,” she says.

“It was a full day of travel. My mother packed a lunch and early in the trip, we had to travel through the Pipestone Valley. We’d often get stuck going up and going down. We all got out of the car and helped. And of course, we were always watch-ing the skies and praying it didn’t rain.”

“It was really big news when a road was cut through from Carlyle Lake to Kenosee Lake. It became the #9 highway, now. But that was big news!”

“Even though we didn’t live as close to the lake as people in Carlyle, my dad loved the lake,” says Hunt. “My dad and a man from Carlyle named Stockton both had general stores and they met at a meeting. That’s where dad learned about Carlyle Lake. No one knew about it at all in Rocanville.”

Many lake pleasures are “timeless and enduring,” according to Hunt. Swimming, boating, berry-picking, days spent barefoot in bathing suits, and watching water levels were-and still are- unchanging aspects of lake life. How-ever, Hunt witnessed changes in clothing, cars and boats during a century of summers.

“In the early days, the beach was called a bathing beach,” she says. “People would put on their swimsuits and then change into their clothes right after they swam. There were no changing rooms then and people didn’t spend the day at the beach in their swimsuits. They would change in and out of their clothing every time they went for a swim.”

One of Hunt’s most recent poems chronicles the annual boat regatta and swimming competitions at the lake during the 1920s, adding that people came from “near and far to attend.”

“It was a very well-attended, exciting event back then and you could see cars parked everywhere along the beach,” says Hunt. “It all happened at Hotel Beach. There were boat races-the boats were made of wood back then-and all kinds of water competitions; swimming, diving, that sort of thing.”

“Bill Mitchell (author W.O. Mitchell) was about my age. The Mitchellswent to Florida in the winter and they could do all kinds of dives in the wa-

ter,” says Hunt. “They really stole the show because they were so good at all of the watersports. They really had it over the rest of us prairie

people,” she laughs.“Later-in the 1950s and 60s, we would often see Tommy Douglas

and his wife out for their evening walks,” says Hunt. “They had a cabin at the lake back then and they were private people, but at the same time, just like normal cottagers.”

“He had a walking stick and wore a hat. They weren’t dressed fancy or anything like that, but he looked important. They were

friendly, but we also respected their privacy.”“A lot of United Church ministers stayed at the lake in the

summer,” adds Hunt. “Back then, you could rent a cottage there for not much money. There was a little church on Sandy Beach and there always seemed to be a minister around. There was a pump organ in the church, too. And usually, there was someone around who was able to play it.”

“There were also tennis courts, dances with live bands and at one time, the store had a post o ce in it. There was even a milkman who delivered milk and cream for a while.”

“There were ball tournaments at the ball diamond at Sandy Beach,” says Hunt. “There were lots of cars, because people came from all over to play and watch ball.”

Hunt recalls cli walking with her children between Crescent Beach and Sandy Beach, picking berries and other simple pleasures and has passed

on a love of the lake lifestyle to her children and their children.

“After I married, my husband would come out on weekends and spend his two-week vacation at the lake

with us. During the week, we didn’t have a car, so it was quite a job,” says Hunt. “There was no refridg-eration, so you lived hand to mouth. My husband brought stu out and we picked berries. There were a lot of wonderful sh in the lake; the perch came later. But you had to stretch things through the week.”

“In my dad’s time, there was a milkman and the big hotel was the only source of groceries. There

was a limited supply. The bread came daily from Carlyle and a local farmer supplied the milk.”

“But it was a wonderful time and a wonderful thing for a family to do,” she continues. “The children spent the day in their bathing suits and they enjoyed a lot of freedom.”

“My husband wasn’t as fond of the lake as the children and I were, but he liked building things, so he built our cottage in the early 1950s. My daughter Ruth still lives at the lake for part of the year and my son Don lives in Calgary, so he and his family have a cottage near there.”

“For me, the lake was really a retreat. We made wonderful friends there. There are people who want to get back to things that are simpler. It’s such a beautiful lake and we love it.”

One of Hunt’s poems ‘Memories’ recounts the excitement of the regattas held at the lake, and she says the nal lines sum up her lifetime at the lake:

“White Bear Lake is still a gem, I see it now, remembering when.”

Marjorie Hunt of Regina is pictured here on her 100th birthday. Now 102-years-old, the Regina resident has enjoyed a lifetime of lake life at White Bear Lake Resort. Hunt’s memories feature well-known Saskatchewan fi gures, including Premier Tommy Douglas and renowned author, W.O. Mitchell.

An odd way to say,

donate blood

Because they’re worth it

6 VIEWSObserverThe

Something that’s al-ways fascinated me are the odd stories you hear about from around the world, I think it’s part of the reason why history inter-ests me so much. It’s the strange stories that make you laugh or shake your head that you can’t believe are real.

For instance, did you know Canada had wild camels in the Rocky Mountains for a short pe-

riod of time? No, camels are not native to Can-ada, but during the Cariboo Gold Rush people were looking for animals which could carry a lot of weight and camels are a great pack animal. However, they are not a great pack animal in the Rockies.

The camels were being sold by a San Francis-co merchant as camels had been used to work in Arizona for rail construction and the merchant had used them during the California Gold Rush. The problem? The camels went lame as they are built to walk in sand and not on rocky terrain for strenuous, extended periods.

These little fun facts I can usually nd on BBC news by looking up the sections “Also in the News” or “News from Elsewhere.”

The other day as I was reading through the topics which have ranged in the past, I came across one titled, “Romania: ‘Pay with blood’ at Transylvania music festival.”

I know you’re wondering… “What?” Because that was my same reaction. Intrigued by the title I clicked on the link. Apparently in an e ort to promote blood donations, the Untold festival, which takes place at the end of July, is using the legacy of Count Dracula, a vampire in Bram Stoker’s novel, who is based on the particularly violent historical gure, Vlad the Impaler.

By playing up the legacy of Dracula, through an advertising campaign that shows Dracula attached to a blood bag, and o ering free or discounted tickets to the festival for blood dona-tions the intention of festival organizers is to in-crease the number of people who donate blood.

Bogdan Buta told BBC, “Given that Romania faces an acute blood shortage in medical facili-ties, a campaign that takes inspiration from these myths in order to draw attention to a real problem is more than welcome.”

Apparently Romania has one of the lowest gures for blood donation in the whole of Eu-

rope at less than two percent of active donors.This made me wonder about Canadian facts

and gures. According to Canadian Blood Servic-es – in a press release from November 2014 – on average someone needs blood every minute of every day. Blood and blood products have a lim-ited shelf life, which makes this demand a con-stant. However, despite a high need, one in two Canadians are said to be eligible to give blood, while only one in 60 actually do: one in 60 or 1.7 percent of the population donates blood. Making it look to me like Canadians need to donate more as well.

I am a sucker for romantic comedies. In TV watching I go for the political stu but when it comes to movies I love the schmaltzy story lines. Worse yet, I can watch them again and again…and again.

Occasionally a touching scene or memorable line of dialogue helps the movie stand out from amongst the pack. Such is the case with the 2009 Touchstone Studios release of “Confessions of a Shopaholic” based on the books by Sophie Kin-sella and starring Isla Fisher and Hugh Dancy. It is the story of a writer who can’t stop shopping and who through a series of twists ends up work-ing at a nancial periodical instead of the fashion magazine she aspires to. Despite the fact she lives o maxed-out credit cards while he enlight-ens readers on prudent nancial strategies they (ah, surprise) end up together, and he attempts to teach her that “cost and worth are very di er-ent things.”

The price of an item indicates what it will cost to purchase. Whether or not we make that purchase is an indication of its worth to us, driven by what we feel is worthy of spending our money on. Choosing between the name or house brand of spaghetti sauce while wondering if the extra cost is worth it is one thing, but determin-ing how to put the money into the hands of the consumers making that choice is another thing entirely. Cost and worth, as it applies to what people earn, is a very di erent thing. Sadly, what it costs a business or organization to hire a particular employee often has little re ection on what that employee is truly worth.

I love watching the NHL but the reality of what my favourite player earned last year ba es me. Yes, the spin-o bene ts to the city where he plays and the entire league cannot be for-gotten. But how is it we have decided what he does should earn millions, meantime the indi-viduals nurturing our children or caring for our grandparents are earning less in a year than the $81,707 he makes per game. I know this athlete does a whole lot more than show up at game time. His work ethic, training and community involvement extend beyond his ice time, but he still makes way more money than the cleaning sta who keep operating rooms safe, the law en-forcement o cers and re ghters who walk into

situations instincts tell us to stay out of, or the people who go out and restore utilities, roadways and public access when something has gone wrong. Their worth greatly exceeds the cost to their employers--and to us.

Rarely does the salary someone earns re ect the true value of their work. But maybe that’s not such a bad thing. Don’t misunderstand. They deserve more. But knowing that despite the nancial limitations of some of these jobs, people

seek them out anyway, may in some way dem-onstrate the value those individuals place on the work they are doing.

Prior to her retirement, my mother worked in the eld of nursing. I could no more follow in her footsteps than I could qualify for the next space shuttle mission. Nursing was never going to be in my future--especially in the place she loved to work--a longterm care facility. But my mother was very good at it.

Many years ago she was asked to pilot a proj-ect for nursing home residents with dementia, and when my university class schedule allowed she encouraged me to come in and play the piano. As I watched my mother work so lovingly with the residents I was reminded that although you can pay someone to do any type of work, you can’t pay for the value of the intent behind the work. What she did, and many others do, is beyond the remuneration they receive. Cost and worth.

We can do little about the dollar amount on the pay checks of those whose work is underval-ued so we need to look to other ways to demon-strate our gratitude. Calls, cards, texts, tweets, food or owers may not help with the mortgage payments but they will go a long way toward ensuring people feel good about the importance of their work. You can’t cash it at the bank but the expressions of thanks will be played over and over again in the receiver’s mind and become part of the dialogue that makes the story of their work life feel like a blockbuster.

That’s my outlook.

Overhaul the UCCB - quickly

Universal Child Care Benefit: Was the change worth it?

This week we’re Lynne and I are looking at the new monthly Universal Child Care Bene t (UCCB).

The bene t has been promoted as allotting nearly $2,000 annually for any child under the age of six and approximately $720 for any youth aged six to 17.

The government has made this a universal credit, meaning that all families, no matter their economic stature will receive the money.

While Lynne has been tasked with arguing the amount should only be given to those in need of it, I’ve been given the task of defending its universality, however, after reading more literature on the UCCB, I don’t think it should be defended, it should be reworked.

The UCCB is straight income support. Perhaps some families are in need of this, but an underlying issue for many is childcare. According to the Hu ngton Post there are only enough regulated childcare spaces across Canada for 20 percent of young children, while 70 percent of mothers work outside the home. Would it be better to put the money towards nding a solution to this issue?

Families receiving the money actually don’t have to put it towards childcare. The parent who receives the money from the government is in charge of how the money is spent and it’s up to the parent to say how the money is best spent.

The small deposit each month actually doesn’t o set this lost income if a parent has to stay at home, while childcare itself can cost an overwhelming amount. Perhaps the gov-ernment should take the money it is splitting

between families and use it to create more a ordable childcare, while introducing a tax break instead to those with young children.

While looking further into the UCCB it would appear that the amount received by the government is all taxable, meaning families are actually going to be paying tax back to the government on it because the child tax credit has been eliminated.

So, there’s a chance to receive more through the UCCB or potentially receive less than what it once was depending on a family’s circumstances.

It is also possible that if you’re sitting at the maximum under one tax bracket that the tax-able money could potentially put the individual up into the next one or push them above the threshold for bene ts such as subsidized hous-ing or child-care subsidies.

However, because this is what the govern-ment has decided to do, it’s a good idea to look into ways to invest the money to avoid the lat-ter. By placing the money in a Registered Edu-cation Savings Plan, Tax Free Savings Account, or by putting it into childcare and claiming the amounts ($8,000 for children under six and $5,000 for youth seven to 16) you can save in the end. It’s also recommended that you avoid using the money to pay debts because it is tax-able.

So, I’m not sure if the government really chose the best way to help families by intro-ducing the UCCB. With an election coming up was it a way to buy votes or did the govern-ment think they were helping, but didn’t actu-ally think things through?

“Perseverance is the hard work you doafter you get tired of doing the

hard work you already did.” - Newt Gingrich

Supporting Canadian children who need help most is an idea few citizens in this coun-try will dispute. However, the Universal Child Care Bene t (UCCB) is not the best way to assist these families, as the program’s univer-sality-which sounds fair-actually dilutes its e ectiveness.

Kelly has made a compelling argument for reworking the UCCB in favour of- among other things-better childcare, which I agree with wholeheartedly-and won’t rehash here.

Families across the country have already received UCCB contributions of $160 per month for every child under the age of six and the $60 per month for every child for every child between the ages of six and 17, backdat-ed to January. This mini-windfall is, I sus-pect not unwelcome in most homes, but is it strictly necessary? Is the estimated $5 billion the program will cost between now and next spring the best way to help families in Canada who really need a hand up?

I suspect not. Already there are indica-tions that the money may have (in my opin-ion) been better used in a more deliberate, targeted fashion to really make a di erence in the lives of families who would most bene t from the billions budgeted. Instead, the im-pact of a massive amount of taxpayers’ cash is weakened in the interests of universality.

The argument is obvious and whether you agree or disagree, the math is simple. That monthly windfall will mean a great deal more to a low-income family, than higher-income families. And those same higher-income fami-lies will see a clawback at tax time-and maybe an economic disadvantage-as the child tax credit is eliminated.

Liberal leader Justin Trudeau (who is decidedly not economically disadvantaged) has stated that he will donate his family’s UCC bene ts to a charity in his riding. While this is an admirable action, there is certainly no guarantee that Trudeau’s-and other families like his-charitable contributions will directly (and with dignity) aid Canadian families who could really use economic assistance.

Leader of the federal New Democratic Party, Thomas Mulcair has gone further, seemingly urging his party’s supporters to donate the cash to the party’s co ers. In a re-cent fundraising email, the party uses what it calls an “inspiring story” of Ella, a nancially secure single mom who intends to donate her UCCB cash to the NDP. In the email Ella states calls the UCCB “a dirty little attempt to buy my vote,” stating: “Fortunately, I am a well-educated, nancially-secure single mom and cashing this cheque (or not) will not ma-terially a ect my daughter’s opportunities.”

Deputy Liberal leader and Saskatchewan native Ralph Goodale said of the NDP’s email blast, “You’re turning a social program into a political milk cow and that is very o ensive.”

Whatever one’s political leanings, it is clear that the focus on the UCCB is rapidly veering away from helping those who need it most.

Canadians-no matter what political party they support-can do better for our youngest citizens. The UCCB needs an overhaul-and quickly.

Jack Harbourne MemorialTournament Final faces weather delay

The Jack Harbourne Memorial Tournament got off to a sunny start Friday, July 24, as teams played their fi rst games in the communities of Carlyle, Carnduff , Kenosee Lake and Oxbow. However, rain and lightning delayed action at the Kenosee ball diamond on Sunday, July 26, resulting in the championship match between the Carlyle Cardinals and the Kenosee Cubs to be played at a later date. Pictured are the Cardinals (in white uniforms) playing their fi rst game against the Lampman Pirates at Carlyle’s Lions Park. The Cardinals defeated the Arcola Threshers 7-1 Sunday, July 26 at Kenosee Lake to gain their spot in the fi nal.

The Kenosee Cubs shake hands with the Oxbow Chiefs at the Kenosee ball diamond, Sunday, July 26. The Cubs defeated the Chiefs 4-3 in a hard-fought, six-innings, after coming from behind 3-0 in the fi fth inning. Due to rain and lightning earlier in the day, the fi nal face-off for the Saskota League’s 2015 edition of the Jack Harbourne Memorial Tournament was delayed until a later date.

When the National Hockey League returns to Quebec City, in some fashion — either by transferring a down-trodden team or NHL owners accepting $400 million in Quebec cash for an expansion team — people of La Belle

Province can thank the Winnipeg Jets.Only the most ardent optimists ever dreamed

the NHL would return to Winnipeg after the Jets left for Phoenix after the 1996 season. Ditto for Quebec City after the Nordiques abandoned Canada for Denver in 1995.

But the Jets did, indeed, return and have be-come one of the NHL’s wildest success stories. And

with Quebecor’s money and the recent construction of an 18,259-seat arena in Quebec City, it’s just a matter of time before the Province of Quebec adds a second team.

In mid-July, Quebecor made its interest in an NHL franchise offi cial by “submitting its candidacy for the NHL expansion process,” according to an Associated Press story. NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman and league governors recently announced it was opening its expansion process. Las Vegas, with a new building almost completed behind the New York New York casino, is expected to be a front-runner for a new team via expansion, which won’t happen until 2017.

Seattle and Quebec City are the other leading candidates, but while Quebec City isn’t geographi-cally perfect (two new western-based teams would give the NHL two 16-team divisions), it has history on its side. And with the Jets success in Winnipeg, NHL governors have a pretty good idea that a Que-bec City franchise would fl ourish, too.

It could be costly to NHL owners if Quebec City does not get an expan-sion team. That $400 million expansion fee would land in the cof-

fers of the other 30 teams, a cool $13 million each. If Quebec gets ignored via expansion, however, and winds up enticing a struggling Florida Panthers or Arizona Coyotes to move north, there might be some transfer fees paid, but nothing close to the $400 million expansion fee.

Quebec City has a rich hockey background and there’s little doubt those 18,259 seats would fi ll up quickly. But another Canadian team replacing a Miami or Arizona franchise is small-town news to the bigger-thinking Bettman. The Commish grit-ted his teeth and off ered a forced smile when the Thrashers moved to Winnipeg, and losing another American franchise to a once-rejected Canadian city might hurt the image-conscious NHL.

Bringing the NHL back to Quebec City is the right thing to do. Sooner the better.

Never before in my life have I hoped a head coach is wrong more than I do right now.

Prior to Sunday’s home game against Hamilton, Roughriders coach Corey Chamblin told his team in his pregame speech, “This will determine what type of team you’re gonna be for the rest of the season!”

TSN cameras caught the address and the com-mentators noted how fi ery Chamblin was in his talk.

The club then proceeded to blow a 21-17 lead in the fourth quarter and lose 31-21 for its fi fth consec-utive defeat to open the 2015 CFL season.

0-5.Of course to make matters worse, quarterback

Kevin Glenn got injured making a tackle on an interception he threw at the end of the third quarter and was unable to fi nish the game. His status is now in question for this Friday’s game at the division-leading Edmonton Eskimos.

Initially, the inkling is that this season is a write-off and we haven’t even hit August yet.

Upon my return home after the game, my wife asked, “So are we eliminated from the playoff s?”

And the answer to that question provided the one slim glimmer of hope the team has at this

point.No, they are not eliminated from the playoff s

and there are still 13 games to go. In my fi rst sea-son calling games in 1999, when the club fi nished 3-15, the Riders were miraculously in the playoff picture right down to the fi nal weekend.

But something needs to change with this team immediately. There’s one bullet left in the gun and should they falter at Commonwealth Stadium this upcoming weekend, it would be tough to convince even the most-optimistic of fans – or even the play-ers - that this season can be saved.

Defense cost Saskatchewan the Hamilton game. Just like all of their games so far this year. Chamblin, the club’s defacto defensive coordinator, tweaked their approach and applied considerably more pressure against the Ticats on Sunday than we’ve seen all season. But the result was the same.

“Just like you say, we brought the heat,” Cham-blin said after the game. “We got after (Ticats QB Zach Collaros) and did everything we could. That’s football and we couldn’t keep them out of the endzone. The thing we can’t do is quit, no matter what. This is one of the toughest situations they’ll ever be in but we have to fi ght another day.”

Amidst all of Chamblin’s postgame quotes, that was the kernel which stuck out to me. “We couldn’t keep them out of the endzone.”

So the time has come for Chamblin to relin-quish the duty of calling defensive plays and hand it over to Greg Quick, the man whose business card actually says “Defensive Coordinator”.

The facts are staring the Roughriders right in the face. What they’ve been doing simply isn’t working. There have been promises all season long but they’ve come up empty each and every week.

It’s come to this.Receiver Weston Dressler has emerged as the

leader of this football club in the absence of injured quarterback Darian Durant and even he has run out of answers.

“It’s getting harder and harder to talk to you guys,” Dressler told us on CKRM’s postgame radio show. “Coach told us to remember this day. We’re at the bottom and have nowhere to go but up.”

That part is likely true. And it was so sad to see most of the 31,683 fans in attendance on Sunday head to the exits with 1:41 remaining. There was so much hope in their faces all game long, but it is quickly evaporating.

“You never want to see people leaving early when there’s still time on the clock. It’s tough,” Dressler continued. “If we had the answers we’d be winning games instead of losing them.”

That was the toughest part to digest. The Rid-ers don’t have the answers and if they don’t, who does?

It’s time to try something diff erent, before it’s too late. The clock has started ticking on Corey Chamblin’s mostly successful time in Saskatchewan and no doubt there will be plenty of calls for his dismissal between now and Friday. But that, assur-edly, won’t happen.

“I think, no matter what, through social me-dia the players are gonna read (speculation on his future) and they shouldn’t be worried about my future,” Chamblin said calmly. “They should be worried about theirs. My mindset is the guys in that room. As long as I’m here, that’ll be my focus; to get wins for the guys in that locker room.”

For the last couple of weeks Chamblin has sounded like a dead man walking and it’s clear the team is down to its last out.

But they’re not giving up. They can’t. Not yet.“It’s gonna be a heckuva ride when we pull out

of this thing,” Dressler concluded.It has to start Friday night.

Hometown girls and cousins Cheryl Bell and Katie Walter are behind Arcola’s second annual Street Dance and Slow Pitch Tournament to be held this year on Saturday, Aug. 22.

“This year, the proceeds are going towards the makeover of the Mac Theatre,” says Bell. “The Op-timist Club is behind it and they do so much for our town, not just with the theatre. They bring concerts and movies to the theatre and bring entertainment for everyone.”

“They’ve done such a great job inside the the-atre-with the digital sound and the new seats-that

we’d like to contribute towards the work they’re doing right now to make the outside as great as the inside.”

“Last year, the street dance got rained out, so instead of having it on Main Street like we planned, we held it in Prairie Place. This year, we’re really hoping we can hold the street dance right on Main Street, so people can see the theatre and the work that’s been done so far.”

“Both Katie and I have businesses on each side of Main Street-me with Chapman Fine Foods and her with Colour Me Crazy-so we get to see The Mac and the progress that’s made every day.”

“It’s a beautiful heritage building, so we’re really hoping to have the dance right on Main Street.”

“Third Degree Birnz will be our band again this year,” adds Bell. “And tickets are $20 each, with

no advance ticket sales. There will also be 50-50 tickets for sale at the dance and some other fun events.”

“Last year, Rodney Cutler was our 50-50 win-ner and he donated his prize right back,” says Bell.

In addition to the street dance, a slow pitch tournament will be held, along with beer gardens, all at the Arcola Ball Diamond.

“Last year, we started the slow pitch tourna-ment early, on Friday night instead of Saturday morning, due to the demand,” says Bell. “This year it’s the same, so we’re starting the ball Friday night at 7 p.m.”

“It was the same with volunteers. This year, I spent about two hours making phone calls and sending messages, and I got calls from 30 people right away, all off ering to volunteer. That’s one of the things that makes Arcola such a great place to

live.”“Moving back here

from Toronto was the best decision our family ever made, and we’d just like to do our part to contribute to our community.”

Slow pitch begins Friday, Aug. 21 at 7 p.m. at the Arcola ball diamonds continues through Saturday, Aug. 23, with beer gardens from 2 p.m. until 7 p.m. The street dance begins at 8 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 23.

For more informa-tion or to volunteer, contact Cheryl at (289)-259-5432.

This year’s Arcola Street Dance and Slow pitch tournament will begin with slowpitch on Friday, Aug. 22 and a full day of ball action, followed by a street dance on Aug. 23. Proceeds from this year’s event with benefi t the Arcola Optimist Club’s restoration of the community’s historic Mac Theatre.

New/Amended bylawsThe Town of Carlyle’s regular bi-monthly meet-

ing was held on Wednesday, July 22, with a number of items on the agenda including four bylaws.

Three bylaws were read for their fi rst through third readings.

The fi rst bylaw introduced was 2015-08, which is an amendment to the traffi c bylaw, that changes the hours in which snowmobiles and ATVs can be operated in town. These hours are now from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. whereas the bylaw used to allow them until midnight. Additionally snowmobiles and ATVs are only allowed on roadways within town limits if they are using the most direct route from their house to leave town. Fines were increased as well, what used to range from $25 to $125, now sits at a range of $50 to $250.

The next bylaw introduced was 2015-09, which regards a zoning change to be made to lots along Railway Ave. from Commercial to R2 Residential.

Bylaw 2015-11 is an agreement between the R.M. and Town of Carlyle for recreational funding.

Each entity will put in $25,000 per year for fi ve years and this will be put towards capital recre-ational projects in need in the community.

The fi nal bylaw read during the meeting was only read twice. Bylaw 2015-10 focuses on introduc-ing and giving Western Municipal Tax Solution the ability to collect specifi c tax arrears that the town has been having diffi culty with. Further discussion will take place next meeting before its fi nal reading.

Mayor’s reportMayor Wayne Orsted made council aware of

damage at the cemetery. The gates of the cemetery were hit by an individual driving a vehicle and were “destroyed,” according to Orsted. The operator has been in contact with their insurance and the project will be approached by council in the near future.

Water usageThe weekly water report was assessed and

compared to last year consumption is slightly up; however, it is a hotter and drier year than last year was, so this was expected.

DiscussionCouncil also discussed a few general concerns

although these matters are things they are monitor-ing or keeping track of and no decisions have been made regarding them.

As the third semi which has overturned by the Co-op council talked about possibly ways to make it

safer including widening the approach or putting in a guard rail although this decision is ultimately up to the Department of Highways council just wanted to bring it up.

Concerns from citizens were reported to coun-cillors about kids driving golf carts on the street. The citizen has said they will be approaching RCMP with this.

A councillor brought up concerns over how much the Town paid for fi reworks at Boogie Fest. The cost had been approved prior to the event, but was brought up to see if next year they want to put that much into them again. This will be discussed next year.

The Town had been hoping to do a dedication at the airport with a sign this fall. Time is slowly slipping away, so they are looking at making it a priority in the next couple of weeks to ensure the fall dedication can still take place.

New/Amended bylaws for Town of Carlyle

I’ve played the piano in the advanced dementia unit of our local seniors’ home for years and it’s become one of my favourite places to tickle the ivo-ries. Residents sometimes stare blankly but a closer look may reveal toes or fi ngers that, ever so faintly, beat out the rhythm. Other times, a shadow of rec-ognition fl its across a face, followed by the tremble of lips seeking desperately to connect with those long-lost words. A recently completed beautiful newseniors’ facility boasts an expanded and light-fi lled area for the hymn sing. Last week it was packed with residents of all levels of care plus numbers of visiting friends and families. As I began, a staff member wheeled in one last attendee.

I’d never seen this resident before, don’t know his name but for the purpose of this article, I’ll call him Gregory. I’m not sure what fi rst attracted me to Gregory, his missing teeth or his vibrant smile. What I do know is that when he was wheeled into the room, his excitement was all the thanks I could ever wish for.

“I can’t remember the words,” he blurted out, even as his hands directed some far-off choir. Jumbled syllables accompanied the keyboard melody and the smile never faded from his face. “I wish I could remember the words,” he repeated. He was parked immediately beside me, skirting the end of the piano bench and I whispered to him, “don’t worry about the words, just enjoy the music”. I’ll never know if he understood me or not.

I was reminded of a profound truth, however: no matter how confusing life gets, how painful the circumstances, nothing is more important than remembering the song.

“Speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord.” (Ephesians 5:19)

WAWOTA

Did you know . . . King’s Department Store originated

in Wawota and it’s still there!

Come to Wawota - there are many

more reasons to stop in.


Constable Bryan Marchuk joined the Carlyle Detachment two months ago in his fi rst posting with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.

Having fi nished training at Depot in Regina four months ago and for the fi rst two months as an active member he was in Ot-tawa working as added security on Parliament Hill before arriving in Carlyle.

Marchuk joined the RCMP after training as a Control Systems Engineer.

“I was a Control Systems Engineer in training and there wasn’t enough variety in the work for me and I wasn’t directly helping people,” he explained. “I wanted a career where I could make a bit of a diff erence.”

Despite training being, “the toughest six months of [his] life,” Marchuk has found his calling and only four months after training can say, “I love it. It’s great. It’s the best job I’ve ever had. Every day is diff erent, there’s no routine. I wake up and I have no idea how my day is going to pan out.”

Although Carlyle has been a bit of a cul-ture shock, having gone from places like Van-couver and Kelowna, he has been looking for ways to become involved in the com-munity.

“To go from a population of 80,000 to 1,400, is a little bit of an adjustment,” Marchuk said smiling. “I’m trying to get involved though. I’ve joined jujitsu at the gym which is letting me meet other people aside from other members, but basically I’m just waiting for hockey sea-son and to play.”

Constable Bryan Marchuk has been working in Carlyle for the past two months and has been enjoying his fi rst posting following training at Depot in Regina.

Afternoon visitors on Thursday, July 16 with Joyce McKinna, Bill and Dick were Audrey Meredith and Syl-via Mohrbutter, both of Oxbow.

Forenoon visitors with Joyce McKinna on Friday, July 17 were Linda Slade (Winnipeg) and Marilyn Henderson (Gainsborough).

Betty-Jo DeJong and daughter Carley (Lashburn, SK) spent a few days visiting with her parents Bob and Cecille Harrison. They also enjoyed the swimming pool during the hot afternoons.

Home visiting with Gary and Brenda Junk are son, Jody and grandsons Jaxon and Jace, grand-daughter Morgan and her dad Rob Applegate, all of Sylvan Lake, AB. On Thursday, July 23 the family visited with great-grandpa Chic Girard at Wawota before spending the rest of the day at the Kenosee waterslides.

Glennis Peterson spent from July 16-29 visiting with family members at Lang and Indian Head. She at-tended the wedding of her grandson, David McDonald to Vanessa Paulsen at the Indian Head United Church on Saturday, July 18, 2015. Also at this time she had a special visit with her granddaughter, Danielle Nolin who had travelled from St John’s, New-foundland.

Dale Anthony spent a few days last week (July 20-23) visiting his sister Hazel Diebel and family at Mey-ronne, SK.

Attending the book reading of Dr. W. Von Staden at the Redvers Library on Thursday, July 23 promoting his newly published book “Memories of a Veterinarian” were Lawrence and Dot Zelionka, Dianne Lemieux, Allan and Kathy Arthur, Laughlin Arthur, Gray and Edel Cowan. There was a good crowd in attendance who all seemed to enjoy his stories that he told and it wasn’t long before he had sold out of the books that had been brought with him from Regina.

Visiting a few days last week with Lorne Junk were his daughter Crystal, her husband Jay Steeves and their daughters Evan and Elliot (Innis-fail, AB). They then left to visit with Grandma Dot Barrie in Estevan and would go on to attend a Barrie family reunion near Diefenbaker Lake.

Tim, Shelly and Ainsley visited in

Minot over the weekend (July 24-26) with the Nilsen family. Tim and Shelly attended the Aerosmith concert at the Minot fair on Saturday where they also met up with Kim, Lily Carlsen, Erika and Abby.

It was the Austin Threshermen’s Reunion this past week at Austin, MB in which Eleanor Harrison, Jim and Mary Boettcher attended and helped out with the event. It’s always an interesting one to see.

Yvonne Dzuba accompanied Jeanne Lemieux to Oxbow on July 23 to attend the surprise 55th Anniver-sary celebrations for Larry and Arlie Neff . Happy Anniversary folks from the Alida community! Yvonne then spent the evening with Jeanne and re-turned home to Weyburn on July 24.

Murray and Adam Cowan spent July 26 at the Cowan farm visiting Gray and Edel. Adam will spend the next few days holidaying at the farm with grandparents and spending some time with Uncle Tim, Aunt Shelly and Ainsley.

The end of the 16th Pan American Summer Games was on Sunday, July 26 and what great games they were for the Canadians. We won at total of 217 medals (the highest amount that we have ever received) – 78 Gold – 69 Silver and 70 Bronze – Way to go Canada.

Now turning to Football – What can one say??? It was another disappointing game for the Riders resulting in another loss which makes it 5 in a row. Their next game is on Friday, July 31 against Edmonton – now that’s sure to be an interesting one – you think? Come on Riders – pull them socks up and let’s pull off a winning game. Go – Riders – Go!

We did it again – missed the heavy storms that was around the area and only received a light shower, enough to settle the dust for an hour or so. It’s been another extremely hot week, but this morning (Monday) there’s a nice breeze blowing and that defi antly helps to make it live-able. Noticed that some of the crops around are beginning to change color and before one knows it – harvest season will be upon us. We are on the last week of July now, where does the time go? Once again folks – please remember to call (306-443-2496),

There are many things in life we are very grateful for. This past week so many areas have been bur-dened with hail - we did have some small rain showers - and it seems to brighten the grass immediately.

My fi rst three items: Condolences to the family

members of George and Lorraine Smyth on the recent death of her brother Lawrence Mattheson of Red-vers.

To Marion Yuhasz on the passing of her brother Andrew Saucz of Kelowna, BC.

To the Silcox families on the death of their mother Doris who celebrated her 102 birthday. Doris lived in Kennedy for many years be-fore moving to Carlyle then to Arcola and her last years were spent in the extended care home in Carlyle, in her later years she knit constantly for the needy. A good and faithful servant.

Recent visitors with Joe and Esther Barsi were their family from Regina, and her brother Fred Molnar of Kelowna, BC; his daughter Lau-rie and husband Norman Bucsis of Edmonton, AB; their granddaughter Tara, and her children Kaitlyn and Mason of Moose Jaw (they also spent time with her parents Richard and Dorothy Barsi).

George and I had family members spend the weekend with us:

Dale and Sheila Chanut, Terry and Michelle Williams and boys of Okoto-kos, AB; Stacey and Nathan Chris-tenson of High River, Marie Travland and her three granddaughters of Coronach, Carrie Stephen of Saska-toon. The household was very diff er-ent with six great grandchildren un-der the age of 6 years. The camp site and park was certainly a good spot for them to be. However we enjoyed the camping grounds as an extra spot.

Thursday Marie, Carrie, Margaret Debenham, Yvonne Ber-talon and myself met Anita Margetts in Moosomin for a visit. While there Margaret and I visited with Marie Bender in Moosomin hospital.

A visit to the tea house in Fairlight was a highlight for Sheila, Stacey, Michelle and Doreen. Guess that ends the summer family visitors at our house.

Father Hector Sivelle was away on a week holiday, therefore a prayer service was held on Sunday, a number of visitors attendedóalways nice to have visitors.

We are pleased to know Ama-ret Smyth is back home after spend-ing some time in the hospital and the care home.

Thought for the week “The fi rst beauty the world has to off er is in nature.” Take a drive and enjoy what you see.

e-mail ([email protected]) or text (306-485-8561) with your news. I surely appreciate it. Until next time –

Think positive – Keep smiling – Drive safely and Take care.

Margery BryantJuly 17, 1913 - July 21, 2015

After a long and full life, Margery Bryant passed away peacefully at the age of 102. She was many things to many people – mom, grandma, great-grandma, auntie, friend, and neighbour and she will be greatly missed by all who knew her. She was predeceased by her husband Everett Bryant (1982), her daughter Joan Lothian (1966), her son-in-law Ron Lothian (1991), her sisters Mary (Bill) McLeod, Doris (Claire) Beatty, Elsie (Wes) Moore, and her brother Joe (Vi) Hodgson. She will be lovingly remembered by her family - daughter Eunice (Len) Fleischhacker, and children

Lonnie (Anya Lisowski) Fleischhacker, Darcie (Scott) Ewert, Blake Ewert, Reid Ewert; her grandson Blair (Val) Lothian, and children Brittany (Mat) Brooks, Jacqueline (Bryden) Klotz, Janine Lothian (Adam Kuhn) and their mom Jamie Lothian; her grandson Craig (Pam) Lothian, and children Kelsey (Jesse) Ross, Jasmine Lothian (Dylan Barker); Marilyn Lothian; many special nieces and nephews; Fay Zimmerman and her children and grandchildren. She was also very fortunate to have had such close and caring friends, Barry and Harriet Gooden, Bruce and Lynn Norsworthy, and so many others that kept her company through all the years. Margery was born in the Cannington area. She left school at the end of Grade 8 and started housekeeping for various neighbour ladies in the area. She met Everett, a local boy, and they married on June 11, 1934. They went on to have two daughters, Eunice and Joan. They farmed in the area at a few locations before moving to the farm north of Manor we all know in the fall of 1943. There they not only enjoyed farming the land but also enjoyed raising the typical farm animals which included milking the cows morning and night, selling the cream and eggs, all to make a bit of extra money. She lived there for 66 years, 39 of those years with Everett and 26 years by herself. Throughout those years she enjoyed being involved in all aspects of farming, whether working side by side with Everett or through renting the land and being welcomed as a keen participant along the way. Margery was a self-taught accomplished seamstress, who made her own wedding dress and one for each of her daughters. Eunice and Joan never had store bought clothing as mom made all of their clothes. Blair and Craig were always in style, even during the plaid pants era. She also was a very good cook and made the best bread, pies, and butter tarts. In later years, during the winters she made a quilt for each of her grandkids and great granddaughters and crocheted and knitted countless doilies and afghans. She loved having visitors and her door was always open to anyone who wanted to stop by for a game of cards, a cup of coffee, and a good visit. Margery’s family will always be grateful for the kind and caring staff at the Moose Mountain Lodge in Carlyle where she spent her last 3 years. Margery was especially grateful to have been able to live across the hall from her younger sister Elsie at the Lodge until just 5 months ago. A Memorial Service for Margery was held on Saturday, July 25, 2015 at 1:00 p.m. at the Manor Legion Hall, Manor, SK with The Rev. Michelle Moore of ciating. A private family interment took place at Glen Morris Cemetery, Carlyle, SK. In lieu of owers, donations in Margery’s memory may be made to the ‘Friends of the Moose Mountain Lodge’, c/o Box 729, Carlyle, SK, S0C 0R0. Funeral arrangements were entrusted to Hall Funeral Services, Redvers & Estevan, SK.

MARTY FRANK HALPAPE

Marty Frank Halpape passed away peacefully on June 30, 2015, in the Royal University Hosp-ital, Saskatoon, Sask., surrounded by his immediate family.

Marty completed kinder-garten to Grade 12 in Quill Lake, Sask. During high school, he was involved in volleyball, curling and hockey. It should come as no surprise that Marty was also actively involved on the social committee.

He then moved to Saskatoon to complete his studies in renewable resources technology at Kelsey Technical Institute. Marty then started work as a part-time park security officer at Greenwater Lake Provincial Park.

This is where he met his true love, Jeanette Anne Walker. They were married March 22, 1986.

Marty then took a full-time conservation officer position at Loon Lake. This was an extremely tough time for him, as he did not enjoy being away from his family, so he quickly transferred to Wadena. After working in Wadena, Marty took the position as park manager at Moose Mountain Provincial Park. He was then promoted to Southeast Provincial Park area manager (Moose Mountain Provincial Park) and then to southern director of Parks Service (Regina), a job that he was so

Marty is survived by his beloved wife, Jeanette; daughters, Katelyn (Ryan Fung), Burnaby, BC, and Katelle (Andy Gillingham), Pense, Sask; mother Emily, Wadena; and sisters, Shirley (Frank) Bulka, Kelliher, Sask; Valerie (Larry) Crawford, Winnipeg; Gloria (Erwin) Nycholat, Calgary; Lyla (Darrel) Tweidt, Elko, Nevada; Ione (Vernon) Richards, Winnipeg, and Darla (Darren) Brown, Prince Albert, Sask.; parents-in-law, Jack and Gwen Walker, Tisdale, Sask; sister-in-law Heather (Vern) Olson, Star City, Sask; brothers-in-law Dave (Debbie) Walker, Saskatoon, and Vince (Sharon) Walker, Melfort, Sask.; as well as many nieces and nephews and their families and numerous extended family.

Marty is predeceased by his father Frank, and we know they will now be reunited to spend their days fishing and tinkering around the yard.

Marty’s first love was the cabin at Greenwater Lake. He and his family spent countless summer and winter holidays there. While Katelyn and Katelle were growing up, family holidays were spent camping and downhill skiing. Once his girls were off to university, he and Jeanette began taking annual Mexico vacations. Marty’s favourite spot was Isla Mujeres.

Wherever Marty went, he always enjoyed meeting people and creating mean-ingful friendships. Part of those friendships involved hosting numerous gather-ings, which ranged from fine dining to Roughrider parties and backyard campfires. He also enjoyed gardening and took pride in maintaining a beautiful yard.

In his free time, he enjoyed walking with Jeanette and their dog, Almond, fishing, hunting, and talking with his friends and family.

Marty will always be

working and fun-lovingcharacter.

A Celebration of Lifewas held on Saturday, July4, 2015, at 2:00 p.m. in theQuill Lake CommunityLegion Hall, Quill Lake, Sask.,officiated by Karol Narfason,Funeral Celebrant.

Eulogists were hisdaughters, Katelyn andKatelle Halpape; soloists,Jean McHarg and SharonWalker; organist, DebbieIngram; memorial bookattendants, Jamison andJonathan Soresta; prayerwas read by CherianPoonoose and scriptureby Ryan Fung.

Sunday, July 26, the Red Barn started out fi ne with the band of LeBlanc and Shepherd - Ross LeBlanc and Susan Shepherd. They started to play then wind and rain added an undesirable element

and many people left for home. The band played to the end of the day at 4:00 and new people came and some came back. Vendors seemed pleased but it was not the best day weather wise. Dance rs never did much dancing. Often they are literally kicking up the dust on the gravel and grass. Sunday was chilly at times and hot when the sun shone! That’s what we’ve got out here on the prairies.

Last week while readying my news in the last moments of sending it delightful company came from long ago! Wonderful! I set every-one down with a drink and after sending my news by email we had a fabulous visit while I checked out the dashing looking company in my house! My four guests were not unexpected as their brother Don had told me he would bring them to visit sometime. The two from Ontario and two from Kennedy were ready to reminisce as we talked about the “old days”! It was a pure delight. Try it with old and new friends. Later I phoned to stay in touch and perhaps it will hap-pen. Sometimes light-ning does strike twice!

Had more com-pany over the weekend - lucky pup that I be! He loved a dessert from one of my Estevan friends that is so simple! It’s basically about four ingredients when your pail of ice cream gets low (about lower than one half ), peanut butter (I prefer the crunchy type), butter, and gra-ham wafers!

How to do: let 1/3 pail of vanilla ice cream get a little soft. While waiting for softness of ice cream, crush gra-ham wafers and add about ½ cup melted butter. Place graham/butter mix on bottom of a 9 by 9 pan. Refriger-ate graham base. In ice cream container mix two cups peanut butter or more with softened ice cream and level it on the graham base and freeze overnight. Take out of freezer about 20 minutes before eating. Enjoy!

Moose Jaw has come to the Lakes of

Kenosee Lake and White Bear Communities - population wise - now it is July so drive defensively – everything is open now and there is much more traffi c until the long weekend in September!

Two members of the Moosomin Air Cadets attended camps this year. Dagan Brisbois has returned from a basic and a survival camp at Cold Lake, AB. Marissa Charles is attend-ing an artillery camp in Whitehorse, YU.

Two members of the Wawota Light Horse 4-H Club, Sydney Pryce and Victoria Weatherald travelled to Richmond, QU recently in an exchange program. Members from Quebec will be returning the visit in August. Carla Weatherald was one of the two chaperons who accompanied this group.

Marilyn Bourgon and several members of her family attended a Mile reunion at Kennedy on July 18th. 107 signed the guest book and 72 enjoyed a supper together. The Mile Family plan a family reunion every 5 years.

Another family reunion was held at Brandon on July 16-19th. The descendents of Jens Christian and Martha Jensen started gathering on Thursday evening where Val Puskas and other family members enjoyed a barbeque at Mark and Ambra (Jen-sen) Andreychuks. On Friday the family met at the Senior for Senior Hall and spent two days of reminisc-ing, fun and games. Maureen Jensen had spent the last year organizing this event and was especially pleased to meet her cousin, Rebecca Jensen from Kentucky. Rebecca ‘s dad was a brother to Bill Jensen(and Joyce At-kin) and Rebecca had just found and connected to the Jensens here 3 years ago. Marie Jensen and Roy Swanton

joined the group for Friday and Sat-urday and Shana Puskas, Tylan and Sylan spent Saturday afternoon there. Sunday they met at the park to bid goodbye. Highlights for Val were... Meeting her dad’s sister, Leila for the fi rst time(She babysat Val in Sundry, AB), meeting cousin, Dave after a hiatus of 35 years and meeting cousin Grace and Rebecca for the fi rst time.

Visiting with Mildred Wilson and family recently were Norma Wilson and Ken Walters of Regina.

A bridal shower was held at the Fairlight Drop In Centre last Sunday afternoon to honour Ashley Rowley. She and Daryl Knelsen will be mar-ried on August 1st.

Congratulations to Alyssa Brad-bury and Mike Knelsen who were married at the Knelsen Acreage on Saturday, July 18th. The reception and social evening was held at the Wawota Town Hall.

Sometimes when we need to change plans and go with an alter-native things work out even better! This is what happened when the Engle family wanted the Town Hall for Dave’s funeral but it was booked for a wedding. Dave had passed away on Monday at the age of 83 years old. The family decided to use the Lion’s building at the ball park. Once everything was put in place it turned out to be a great venue! It was a most appropriate to celebrate Dave’s life as he was a strong member of the Wa-wota Lion’s Club and a great sports fan. Sympathy to the family on his passing.
