On Wednesday, Febru-ary 10th, Inspire Stu-

dio of Fine Art, hosted its fi rst ever musical perfor-mance, featuring the duo Roger Roger. Th e intimate setting was perfect for en-joying an evening of un-plugged live acoustic mu-sic. Marlies Soltys, owner of Inspire Studio, had the idea of bringing the two forms of art together, “it makes for such a unique evening out.” Roger Roger is a sibling folk/roots duo from Win-nipeg. Twins Lucas and Madeleine Roger are both singer-songwriters who have joined forces, each are amazing guitar players with beautiful vocals and har-monies that compliment each other. Th e off spring of producer / engineer / musician Lloyd Peterson, the twins grew up in a re-cording studio and have a real gift for writing songs with compelling lyrics tell-ing heartfelt experiences and stories. At Inspire Stu-

dio they performed songs from their debut album ‘Fairweather’, which has been receiving praise and national radio play on the CBC. “Th ey had a sweet sibling chemistry between the two of them,” com-mented Kim Burgess, one of the members of the au-dience. “I enjoy folk art-ists performing their own work, and a bonus when it happens right on our small town Main Street!” Prior to the launch of ‘Fairweather’, Roger Roger, has performed twice at the Winnipeg Folk Festival as part of the Young Performers Program, show-cased at the Folk Music

Ontario Conference, enter-tained passengers on board VIA Rail, hosted songwrit-ers’ workshops and now they are gearing up for the 2016 Canadian Folk Festi-val circuit. “I’m always so impressed by people who have the ability to write songs and put the music with it, Roger Roger has such a knack for it,” Marlies commented “their voices and harmonizing bring it to a whole new level once again.” Th e evening was such a success that Marlies has decided to bring in more entertainers in the future.

In November of 2015, the Minnedosa Fitness Cen-

tre muscled its way into the old Curves for Women location, which doubled its fl oor space. Once com-plete, this expansion will allow for members to have access off of Main Street. Previously, the only en-trance to the centre was from the rear, west side of the building. Th e fi tness centre, which opened approxi-mately 20 years ago by founding member John Neabel, has been in dire need of expansion for a number of years as mem-berships have continued to grow in number. Cur-rently, the fi tness centre has approximately 125 members ranging in age from 13 to 80+. “Th e expansion is nearing completion and would not have been pos-sible without the generous donations from local busi-nesses and service groups,” indicated Erik Davidson, one of the eight volunteer board members of the co-operative. Th e gym has a wide variety of equipment in-cluding free weights, benches, tread mills, a

rowing machine, ellipti-cal trainers and stationary exercise bikes. “It’s not just a gym, but a complete Wellness Centre accom-modating people with all diff erent health goals,” Erik commented. A & L Cycle of Brandon recently in-stalled a brand new, state-of-the-art leg press at the expanded fi tness centre. Th e expanded space is already in use by members with only a few items left to complete. Th ere will be a Grand Opening later this month or early April.

Minor Hockey Report

Dear Reena, I have a brick hearth and left a freshly sawn tree trunk cut side down on the brick for three months. When I picked it up there was a three inch circle on the brick. Do you have a suggestion on how to re-move this darker circle? I have not tried anything yet as I don’t want to com-pound the problem. Carolyn

Dear Carolyn, Th is may require a lit-tle elbow grease but your chance of success is high. Make a paste of baking soda and dish soap. Scrub the area with a damp Scotch Brite pad. Rinse with water and repeat if necessary.

Dear Reena, I own a water cooler that is about 10 years old. I lost the directions for

cleaning the inside of my cooler. I seem to remem-ber using a bleach solution to clean the reservoir. Can you give me suggestions please? Lori

Dear Lori, Health Canada rec-ommends that you clean your cooler system after every bottle change. Begin by disconnecting the unit from the wall. Remove the bottle from the cooler unit. Drain the water through the blue faucet into a buck-et. Disconnect any remov-able parts from the unit. Wash parts thoroughly with dish soap and water. Rinse. If you have a hot and cold dispenser, plug the hot dispenser off using a cork or plug. Doing this prevents sanitizer from getting into the hot tank. Combine one gallon wa-ter and one tbsp. vinegar. With this solution, clean all

of the interior surfaces of the reservoir. Let the solu-tion sit for seven minutes. Fill reservoir full of fresh bottle water and drain the water through the cold faucet. Repeat three times. Remove cork from the hot tank and replace all parts. Plug unit into wall. You can use 1 tsp. bleach instead of 1 tbsp. vinegar however I prefer vinegar since it is safe for consumption.

Dear Reena, Can you please give me a suggestion of a prod-uct that I can purchase to make potato peeling less time consuming? Harvey

Dear Harvey, No need to run to the store for special equip-ment, all you need is: a pot, water and a sharp knife. Boil water in a large pot. While water is heat-ing; use the knife to score each potato skin around the width of the potato as if you were drawing a line around the middle of the potato. Boil potatoes for 15 mins. Place potatoes in ice water. When cool enough to touch; pull off potato skins. Continue to cook as normal. Th is method ac-tually adds fl avour to the potato because you are cooking the spud right in

its jacket.

Dear Reena, Suggestion of using a butter knife to open a stuck jar is not good for the knife-it will bend or break. Using the opener for a can of juice, turn the pointed side up, place under the edge of the jar lid, lift. You may have to try a couple spots around the lid, but it will pop open. Works every time, Janice

Dear Reena, Bed skirts have al-ways frustrated me; I have cheated them very easily for many years. I purchase

one more fi tted sheet the color of my bed covers; I put it over the box spring and don’t bother with the skirt, which only collects dust. Just take off and wash spring and fall cleaning time. Also, for my queen size bed, I use a king size bedspread and put it cross-ways on my bed to hang over sides. Th is only works with covers that have no specifi c pattern on them that would limit placing sideways. For double bed, I use a queen spread. Velma

On Friday, February 19th the Tanner’s

Crossing School gymna-sium was transformed into a giant science lab with 140 well-prepared student presentations and displays for the elemen-tary school’s annual Sci-ence Fair. Students from grades one to eight spent many hours preparing for the event and the top two from each of the four age categories will take their presentations to compete at the Western Manitoba Science Fair at the Key-stone Centre in Brandon on March 15th. “Putting together a

science fair project is one of the best ways a student is able to learn through inquiry, questioning, test-ing, concluding and then applying the results to daily life,” said one of the teachers and Science Fair organizers, Ms. Muirhead. Th e winner of the grade seven-eight catego-ry was Erik Barrett. He had a very unique and locally relevant presentation comparing how plants will react to diff erent growing mixtures. Erik kept the amount of water, amount of light the plants received and room temperature constant in order to de-termine how well plants would grow in a variety

of diff erent growing mix-tures. Th ere were many other unique presenta-tions covering a variety of diff erent topics such as tooth decay to fi ngerprint analysis. Th e success of the annual event would not be possible without the tremendous volunteer eff orts of our local com-munity.Th is year’s volun-teers were Mrs. Tegg, Mr. Brooking, Ms. Proven, Mr. and Mrs. Beaumont, Mrs. Heward, Mrs. McNabb (RBC), Miss Maximchuck (Minnedosa Veterinary Clinic), Miss Fisher, Con-stable Reid (local RCMP), Mr. Konsorada, and Mr. Ridgen, Mr. Urhyniuk,

Miss Janssen, Mrs. Nylen-Netemchek, (Rolling River School Division). Th ere are also some local busi-nesses that provide on-go-ing support for the science fair: Heritage Co-op, Th e Fashion House, Minnedo-sa Pharmacy and Sun Sun Restaurant. Winners from the up-coming Science Fair in Brandon will advance to present their projects at a national Science Fair later this spring.

One of Minnedo-sa’s own born and

raised farm girls, Lauren McNabb, is fast becoming

even more of a household name in our province now that she has recently been appointed co-anchor of the Global Winnipeg sup-per-hour newscast. Lau-ren, daughter of Bob and Elaine McNabb, has been an impeccable journalist and reporter for Global Media and made her de-but news desk co-anchor appearance with Heather Steele on Monday, Febru-ary 29th. After graduating from Minnedosa Collegiate in 1995, Lauren pursued her dream of journalism by at-tending Carleton Univer-sity. She began her career with Global Winnipeg in 2000 and in 2003 she was promoted to Global Na-tional’s Manitoba corre-spondent. McNabb later moved to the Toronto bureau in 2005. Th is pro-motion proved to be very

challenging and busy for Lauren, as she was sent to report on the aftermath of several disasters. She was in New Orleans during Hurricane Katrina, Paki-stan after the earthquake and in Sri Lanka following the tsunami. In 2008, Lauren and her videographer risked their lives to become the fi rst North American jour-nalists to travel into the re-stricted Myanmar/Burma region to report fi rst hand on the devastation caused by Cyclone Nargis. Th eir coverage would later win a RTNDA Charlie Edwards Award-Spot News. In recent years, Lau-ren has reported on-location from several international locations including Kandahar and Afghanistan. She was also based in Jerusalem for 18 months serving as Global

National’s Middle East correspondent. Following her recent debut news desk co-an-chor appearance Lau-ren commented, “I was nervous, but whenever I’m nervous I remember my 4-H experience’s in Minnedosa where we had an annual speech com-petition.” Her family in-stilled the importance of news and travelling at an early age and that lead to inspiring her to pursue a career in reporting. Lauren is married with two young boys and is happy to be living in the province’s capital, Win-nipeg. She continues to have a deep love for her hometown commenting, “Minnedosa is so beauti-ful with the town, the lake and the golf course all nestled in a rolling valley paradise .”

tending school at Franklin, MB. She met the love of her life Metro at a dance in Mountain Road, MB and they were married June 7th, 1952 at the Mountain Road Church. Th ree years later in 1955 they had their fi rst son James Edward. Th eir only daughter Debra Jeanne was born in 1957 and their second son Michael Peter was born in 1969. She worked at the River Bend Café in Minnedosa as a baker and the Minnedosa Creamery as an offi ce clerk. While raising her family she worked at Dan’s Quality Shoe Store and Chicken Delight as assistant manager and baker. Religion was a very important part of her life. She was very active with the Holy Ascension Ukrainian Catholic Church in Minnedosa being on the board for the church and hall commit-tee and singing in the choir. She loved her family and many happy times were spent visit-ing, playing cards and games at every occasion that came along. She loved making pies, perogies, cabbage rolls and was just an all around good cook. You would never leave her home without food and drinks, and she always wanted everyone to “eat more.” She was predeceased by husband Metro, her parents, brother Bill and recently brother Mike.

OBITUARIES

MURIEL GRACE CARTER(nee MADILL)

DECEMBER 25TH, 1920 – FEBRUARY 24TH, 2016

It is with sadness we announce the passing of Mur-iel Carter of Bethany at the Minnedosa Personal Care Home at the age of 95 years. Muriel was born at her par-ent’s farm home one mile east of Bethany, the third child and only daughter of Tom and Minnie Madill. She grew up

on the family farm with three brothers Cliff ord, Jim and Leslie, who all predeceased her. Muriel attended Bethany School, enjoy-

ing curling, skating and softball and graduated from Grade 11 in 1937. She married her high school sweetheart, Sydney Charles

Carter, on October 30th, 1940. Sid worked as a Park Ranger in Riding Mountain National Park and their fi rst home was a log cabin in the

Park. When Sid joined the RCAF in 1943, Muriel followed him fi rst to Winni-peg, then St. Th omas, Ontario and fi nally to Souris, Manitoba. After his discharge from the forces in 1946, Sid and Muriel bought a ¼ section of land in the Bethany area and farmed until 1987, grow-ing both the farm and their family. Th ey had four children: Tom, Jim, Brenda and Karen. Muriel was predeceased by her husband, Sid on July 30th, 1987 and her son Jim on September 9th, 2011. Muriel continued to live on the farm until 1998, when she moved to Minnedosa. Muriel was always very involved in the Bethany Community, serving on boards and working tirelessly for the Social Group, ACW, St. John’s Anglican Church,, the Community Hall Board and the Boyd Cemetery. Muriel is survived by her son, Tom (Jennifer), daughter-in-law Mary and daughters Brenda (Len) Robinson and Karen (Doug) Dowsett. Her family was very important to Mur-iel and she was happiest when they visited to play cards, eat home cooked meals (her buns were legendary) and catch up on all the extended family news. She was always very proud of and will be very much missed by her children, 13 grandchildren and 12 great-grandchildren. Cremation has taken place and funeral services and interment will be held at a date to be announced later. In lieu of fl owers, donations in Muriel’s memory to the Boyd Cemetery, St John’s Anglican Church, the Patio Project at the Minnedo-sa Personal Care Home, or a charity of your choice would be appreciated by her family.

MARION AIRTH MCMANUS(nee LAFURGEY)JULY 25TH, 1920 –

FEBRUARY 24TH, 2016

Our dear mother and grandmother passed away peacefully in the Minnedosa Care Home, at the tender age of 95. Born in the County of Renfrew, Ontario in 1920 the family moved to Bethany, Manitoba in 1923. She attended school in Bethany and then her family moved to Minnedosa.

Marion worked as a housekeeper at a very young age. While working for Lawrence Jones she met and married Richard Henry

McManus in 1937. After marriage they lived and farmed on Jim Grant’s farm in the Cameron District, while raising six children.

Marion raised not only her own children but looked after many other family members including raising a granddaughter for sixteen years. Marion was always a favourite auntie and her door was always open to family and friends. Marion was always known for her wonderful buns and baking, her house always had a mouth watering aroma. She was a long time member of the Cameron Community Club where she enjoyed helping out with lunches and activities. In 1963, the family moved to town when Mom fi nally had all the conveniences like running water, etc. Marion also enjoyed spending time with her sisters and especially going to $1.44 day at Woolco. Mom was pre-deceased by husband Henry, sons Richard, Donald and Raymond, sisters Ida, Edna, Margaret and Ellen, brothers Harvey and Allen, grandson Keith. She is lovingly remembered by her sister Irene Stapleton, children Gladys Ruff , Gordon McManus, Sharon Gwyer and families, twelve grandchildren and eleven great grandchildren. We would like to thank the PCH for the care our Mom received for the last four years. Memorial donations if so desired may be made to the Minnedosa PCH or Cancer Care Manitoba. Funeral services were held on March 1st at the Minnedosa United Church, Reverend Natasha Pearen of-fi ciating. Minnedosa Funeral Service in care of arrangements.

Moments in Riding Mountain

By KEN KINGDON

Plunkety, plink, plink. My daughter Abbey

got a ukulele from ol’ Santy himself this Christmas, and I’ve been plucking away at it in my spare time. And if you don’t recognize the opening bars of the iconic 1960s folk song “Where have all the fl owers gone?” I don’t blame you. It might be my technique. Or it could be because I’ve rewritten it to “Where have all the red squirrels gone?” It’s a bit of a mystery. We were away for about a week over New Years, and when we got back, our two red squirrels seemed to have disappeared. I was tempted to suggest alien abduction. Th en, after sober second thought, I decided no alien in their right mind would want a red squirrel running

around their spaceship, chewing on wires, pulling insulation out of the walls, and chattering away. In my post-holiday haze, admittedly, I didn’t even realize that the squirrels had disappeared for at least a week after our return. Th e weather had turned cold, with daytime highs of -20 C, and I just assumed that the squirrels were holed up somewhere warm and cozy. But, given that at least one of them would show up eyeballing the bird feeder on even the coldest days, I fi nally fi gured something was amiss. And, losing one squirrel is odd, but losing two in less than a week is downright mysterious. Another point of clarifi cation. When I refer to the two squirrels, I don’t want you to think that they were friends or anything. Th e big squirrel seemed happiest when it was trying to kill the smaller one. Like siblings.

Nor, as is the case in most things in this world, did the two squirrels equally share their resources. Th e big one could be classifi ed as the “have” squirrel, and the other “have-not.” Th e poorer “have-not” squirrel was stuck living on the south side of the house, well away from the bird feeder. It only had about six spruce trees to depend upon for cones and shelter, although the one thing it had going for it was an abundance of hazel shrubs. Th e “have” squirrel defi nitely had more resources. With at least 20 spruces to choose from, plus a bird feeder, a couple of sheds to call home, and also an abundance of hazel, this squirrel was the Donald Trump of rodents. But evidently even the Trumps of the world can have troubles. “Have” squirrel was suff ering from a change in management – this fall, I changed how I fed the birds, making it

harder for a squirrel to steal sunfl ower seeds. And then we went on vacation for a week, and left the birds and squirrels to their own devices. As I pondered the squirrels’ disappearance, I fi rst wondered about predators like fi shers or pine martens. We’ve had them go through the yard before, but they never seemed to cut down on the squirrel population. And there hadn’t been any fresh signs of fi shers or martens in the yard for a while. As an alternative, could both squirrels have decided to up and move? It’s possible, but squirrels are highly territorial, and will fi ght to the death to hold onto their homes.So a squirrel would fi nd it hard to move into an area where there was already a resident squirrel. And, in our part of the country, pretty much every territory is occupied. Or at least

they had been. On my snowshoe routes this year, I’ve been noticing a general lack of squirrel sign. It seems to me that it was not only my squirrels that disappeared. In the end, I think that many squirrels have run out of food. I have written before about my non-scientifi c surveys of spruce tree cones and hazel nuts. I n t e r e s t i n g l y , this year was the least productive one that I have seen in my 10 years of looking at these crops. I didn’t see a single spruce tree with new cones on it this year, and the production of hazelnuts was the poorest I’ve seen. Squirrels are well known for being hoarders. Th ey will lay in enough supplies for up to two years, hiding cones, nuts, seeds, and mushrooms in all sorts of nooks and crannies. But even these larders can be emptied in times of scarcity. And that is what

the squirrels might be facing - last year wasn’t a real productive year for nuts and cones either, and so I think that many squirrels have used up a lot of their reserves. Not that I’m saying all the squirrels are starving. Last summer I found a hazel shrub with 26 nuts on it (close to an all-time high), and if you were a squirrel lucky enough to have a few of those shrubs in your territory, you’re probably doing fi ne. Or, you could live next to a constantly stocked bird feeder. Hmmm I think that actually works. Sing along, everyone: “Gone to bird feeders every one. When will they ever learn? When will they e-v-e-r learn? …”
