For the Adrians, it startedwith one crib. Then cameanother, and then onemore. After that came acouple of kids’ car seats. Achild’s mattress or twoadded to the mix. Andthen… Well, before youknew it, the Adrians—Margee, 64, and her hus-band, Denny, 65—foundthemselves providing babysupplies to needy childrenall over the St. Paul-Minne-apolis area. Full-time.What’s more, they love it;they treasure it.

“When we started allthis,” says Denny, a retiredMinnesota state trooper, “Iwanted to help the poorestof the poor because it was apro-life thing to me…to givea car seat and a crib tosomeone who needed it fortheir baby.”

Margee describes theirwork as a ministry. “For meit comes down to this,” shesaid. “Are you going to ig-nore them, or are you goingto do the things God wantsyou to do?”

The Adrians told theirstory to Bob Zyskowski ofThe Catholic Spirit, not be-cause they’re seeking pub-licity and certainly not be-cause they’re looking forhelp. Denny says he knowsnow about all kind of babycribs. “I learned in my life-time,” he said, “but I stillhave the Holy Spirit guidingme.”

That first crib came theirway in 2012, when a manwanted to donate it to theHighland LifeCare Center inSt. Paul. Margee, workingthere as a volunteer, ex-plained that safety require-ments no longer made hisgift acceptable. Frustrated,the man told her he had al-ready tried giving the crib tothree thrift stores, and thathe’d probably burn it just torid himself of what appar-ently had become an un-wanted nuisance.

“Don’t do that,” she said.“Put it in my van.”

That got the ball rolling,and Denny went to workmaking the crib code-com-

What You Need To Know About Medicare

Well, here we go again. The Game Commission isrequesting that the fee for hunting licenses be doubled. That’s a joke. They can’t be serious. Any legislator whovotes for that should be voted out of office.

First of all, I feel obligated to state that I don’t really havea dog in this fight. I hold a Senior Lifetime License, betterknown as a “Geezer” license. Any increase in the basiclicense won’t affect me. I am, however, concerned aboutmy fellow hunters who still have to pay full price. TheGame Commission seems to forget about somethingcalled “customer service.” They consider themselves tobe some sort of monarchy, wherein they can do whateverthey want, regardless of the opinions of the people pay-ing the bills. The Commission’s current proposal wouldresult in a doubling of the basic license fee. What havethey done to deserve this? In my opinion, they have donenothing. I feel that they have shown themselves to be arogue organization, who can do whatever theyplease. Just pay at this window.

Their favorite whine is that they have not gotten a rateincrease in many years. Let’s stop and look at that for aminute. What about the doe license fee? It has gone up. Then, what about the archery stamp, the elk stamp, themuzzleloader stamp, the bear stamp and the bobcatstamp? It is time to get real.

In any business, and the Game Commission is indeed abusiness, if you wish to increase prices, you have to pro-vide your customer with an incentive to pay more. Whathas the Game Commission done along that line? As I seeit, they have done nothing. I don’t care what any officialreport says. The deer hunting in Pennsylvania is terrible,and, while, not totally, it is in large part, due to thepolicies of the Game Commission.

At this point, I should clarify an important point. WhileI have disdain for the Game Commission, it in no wayreflects on game wardens. I know that term is obsolete,but that is what those of us in my age group always calledthem. I have been a hunter since I was twelve years old(yes, I had to wait). Over those years, I have encountereda fair number of game wardens and their deputies. Everyone of those people has been courteous and professional. It has been my experience that anyone who hates thegame warden is someone who broke the game laws andgot busted for it. It is a pity that these dedicated peoplehave to work for such an agency.

Now, for some more pleasant stuff. Before long, infact, possibly before you read this, the panfishing shouldbe heating up. As fall approaches, it has been my expe-rience that panfish go on their fall feeding frenzy beforemost other species. Now is when you fish the warmspots. It is almost as if they know that the food supply isgoing to get a bit on the scarce side pretty soon, so theyhave decided to fatten up. If you want some truly tastyfilets for the freezer, this is the time to go after them. Inthe dead of winter, it is hard to beat a meal of panfishfilets, although it does make you long for the return ofsummer.

Looking for some help understanding Medicare? Turn-ing 65 in a few months and receiving insurance companymailings that you don’t understand?

pliant—and ensuring that itwent to a needy family. InZyskowski’s words, thatwas the first of 500 cribsthat the Adrians have “res-cued, refurbished, deliveredand even set up” for fami-lies who needed them.Some 250 were delivered inthe past year alone.

Every square inch of theAdrians’ home is taken upwith cribs, car seats, mat-tresses, extra crib rails,changing tables. They comefrom garage sales, thriftstores, even Craigslist. “I’ma very good shopper,” saysMargee, without a trace ofpride in her voice. When acrib is on sale for $30, she’lltalk the seller down to$20—and when she ex-plains how it will be used,she often gets it for nothingat all. Word-of-mouth tookcare of all referrals at first;now the Adrians are likelyto hear from social workers,nurses, hospital staff mem-bers, the Missionaries ofCharity, organizations likeBirthright. There’s no short-age, it seems, of familiesand mothers only too gladto accept a gift for their ba-bies.

Margee likes the way theirmission has spurred others’generosity. She puts twocrib sheets and a blanketinto every crib they deliver;they come from donatedarticles. A man writeschecks in fairly largeamounts; she uses them tobuy more items.

“It’s catching,” she said.“People want to be part ofit.”

Denny Adrian struck amore reflective tone. “If yougot the hugs and the tearsof gratitude we get, you’dsee why we do this,” hesaid. “It’s a mission that justfell into our hands.”

East Brady Area Riverfest MeetingSet for Tuesday, September 29

Dick’s ThoughtsCongratulations to the AC Valley volleyball team for win-

ning their opening season tournament. AC won the title overteams from Cranberry, Franklin, Johnsonburg, Kane, KarnsCity, and Neshannock. The AC girls host Clarion September15. Over the past 5 years or so these 2 teams are right at thetop of Western Pennsylvania volleyball.

Congratulations to former East Brady and Clarion Univer-sity quarterback Chris Weibel who is now the head coach atClarion. The Golden Eagles are off to a 2-0 start with winsover Lock Haven and Millersville.

Keystone High School’s Jake Weaver had a tremendousgame against Union. Jake rushed for 343 yards on 21 carriesand scored 5 touchdowns.

Clint Hurdle gets lots of praise for the job he does as man-ager to the Pirates. I would love to hear one rational answerto the question of why he started Sean Rodriguez at shortstopagainst the Reds in the middle of a pennant race.

If the Pirates were only 500 against the NL Central theywould be in first place. They have lost too many gamesagainst the Reds and Brewers to win the division.

The Steelers have drafted 5 cornerbacks over the last 4 years.None of them has yet to play a game or looks close to playinga game for them.

Here is one I never heard of. There are several states includ-ing Pennsylvania that sanction high school fishing.

Dick’s PicksPITT @ Iowa: A couple years ago Pitt had the Hawkeyes

beaten and then found a way to give it away. Pitt will be in allthe way, but the end result will not be good. Iowa 21 PITT 20

San Francisco @ STEELERS: The 49ers appear to be ontheir way down. If they have a tight end though they still havea chance against the Steelers leaky defense. Big Ben and ABmake enough plays to win this one. STEELERS 24 San Fran-cisco 17

Thought of the week: People make mistakes. That’s whythey put erasers on pencils.

Area Fall

Continued from A-1Civil War Era Encampment - New Bethlehem

“This event—the firstsuch effort by our five-year-old organization—will pro-vide the public an opportu-nity to see and hear present-ers who show what life waslike at the period of historywhen our nation had beendivided and gone throughthe four-year war that sawAmericans fighting Ameri-cans over the central issueof states’ rights, notably thedivisive issue of slavery.

“We have conducted twoprevious public programscentered around the CivilWar era, both held in 2014,and the strong interest inthe subject by the publichas led our society to notonly schedule this ‘LivingHistory encampment’ butalso to the publication of abook that will soon be avail-able to the public. Thisbook contains more than180 pages and the overrid-ing central theme is aboutmen from the Redbank Val-ley area who served, culmi-nating with where literallyhundreds of those men areburied in the communityfrom which they came toserve,” Mrs. Morgan said.

Also to be available forpurchase from the local his-torical society will be a 2016calendar that will featurephotographs from theRedbank Valley area, somedepicting events or peoplefrom long ago, and a de-tailed listing of significantdates from this region or, insome cases, from aroundthe nation and the world.The new calendar repre-sents the third such publi-cation undertaken by the lo-cal group.

The Sept. 26 event will bean on-going presentationthroughout the day, from10 a.m. until 6 p.m., andattenders will have an op-portunity to move throughthe demonstration area,hear the presenters dressed

in attire of the featured era,speak of life at that periodof history and do demon-strations that bring to life ataste of what Americans ex-perienced in their differentroles, whether at home oron the battlefield.

Among those to be fea-tured is Dennis Murray, a re-tired school teacher fromthe Emlenton area who haslong been involved withportraying people from theCivil War era. He has beeninvolved as a re-enactor in amilitary unit to his specialtyin the coming event wherehe demonstrates a practic-ing blacksmith who workshis magic through a trade ofshaping iron into imple-ments for home use or forwar.

Joining Murray in herown presentation will behis wife, Judy, who will ap-pear in period dress andshow life at an early Ameri-can home for women,many of whom found them-selves with the responsibili-ties of keeping a family to-gether while the men wereoff at war—and after thebattles had ended becausethousands of the soldiershad died in the conflict.

Both Murray and his wifewill chat with visitors totheir camp site, and will tellstories on what their lifewas like during the repre-sented period. Their pre-

sentations will be on-going,with visitors having the op-portunity to stroll throughthe demonstration areas attheir own leisure and en-gage the Murrays in discus-sions about what is beingpresented or other subjectsof the period of history be-ing featured.

Murray, long known witha nickname of “Murph,”had taught science formany years in the St. MarysSchool District before retir-ing and returning to hisEmlenton area homestead.There, in addition to histravels as a blacksmith invarious historical shows, healso serves as a state andfederally-licensed blasterwith Otto Cupler TorpedoCompany of Titusville, is alicensed pyro technicianwith Fine Are Corporationof Clearfield, and is also in-volved as a chemist who isdeveloping radial cuttingtools for oil well mainte-nance drilling.

While living and workingin the St. Marys area,Murray said he was billed as“Elk County’s No. 1 liar”because of his story-tellingskills, often practiced as hedemonstrated hisblacksmithing skills.Contributors from theArmstrong Area

Joining with the Murraysin showing what life waslike on the battlefield or athome during the War Be-tween the States will bemen and women from theKittanning area who havedevoted countless hours ofbringing to life the experi-ences common to living 150years ago as the nationstruggled to resolve differ-ences that had producedthe conflict.

Highlighting the Arm-strong County participantsat the local show will bemen from the John T.Crawford of Camp 43, Sonsof Union Veterans of theCivil War, and women fromthe Sarah A. Crawford Aux-iliary.

The men portraying therole of Union soldiers in thewar will speak of what lifewas like for men whodonned their military uni-forms to serve PresidentAbraham Lincoln’s the callto arms. Included with theirpresentation will be the fir-ing of blanks from theirmuzzle-loading rifles of thatera. They will also have ondisplay various weapons

PEG KRECOTA (LEFT) and Mindy Eckler, president ofthe Sarah A. Crawford Auxiliary # 43, of the Sons ofUnion Veterans of the Civil War, Kittanning, will bringstories and demonstrations of what home life was likewhile the men of the household were off to battle duringthe Civil War. The women will be wearing typical attireof the era represented, speak of their roles in the homeand their involvement with the Women’s Aid Society.

and other military artifactsof the period.

Ladies participating willbe attired in period dress,complete with their longdresses and bonnets, whowill speak of life at homewhile the men were at warand of the women’s sup-port role.
