Le camp militaire où il faisait son entraînement fut balayé par la grippe dite asiatique et les militaires furent mis en quarantaine.Trois des huit hommes de son peloton moururent.Dans l'infirmerie où ils étaient traités le personnel médical nourrissait beaucoup Entre Nous Par Thérèse Bernard les malades pour leur donner de la force mais ils les expédièrent plus tard chez eux dans «des boîtes».Merle fut le dernier à être frappé.Chaque os de son corps lui faisait mal comme un «violent mal de dents».«Je ne voulais pas aller à l'infirmerie de peur d'être nourri à mort.J'ai plutôt cessé de manger pendant trois jours complets tout en continuant mes activités d'entraînement.Au bout des trois jours je me sentais mieux et j'avais faim.La grippe avait disparu.» Et aujourd'hui?Merle dit qu'il avale des vitamines comme s'il s'agissait de maïs soufflé.Il mange un bon repas le midi et seulement un autre repas léger par jour qui consiste en du pain de céréales entières et du varech, de la luzerne, du son, des graines de tournesol, du germe-de blé et du pollen d'abeilles en poudre.«Je n'ai que 104 ans, dit-il, et mon but est de vivre jusqu'à 110 ans!» Barry Ellson Memorial Car Rally benefits community The Barry Ellson Memorial Car Rally is a much-anticipated annual fall event in Knowlton.Since its inception, proceeds from the competition have gone to such deserving causes as Camp Garagona and The Dixville Home.Last year, event organizers took funds from the rally and offered summer riding lessons to students from both Knowlton Academy and Ecole St.Edouard.These students were chosen on the basis of having made great strides in their school work and personal development during the year.\u201cI have had a lot of fun this summer at the Knowlton Pony Club and I also made some new friends.It has been a great experience.I have learned a lot about horses and how to care for them,\u201d wrote eight-year-old Stephanie Sirois, a student at Ecole St.Edouard.\u201cI loved being around horses and was delighted to have been able to go to the Knowlton Pony Club,\u201d wrote Knowlton Academy student Cindy Elston of Foster wrote.This year\u2019s Barry Ellson Memorial Car Rally begins at The Thirsty Boot on September 23 at 11 a.m., and the cost is $10 for the meal or $15 for the rally entry and the famous pork and beef dinner that tops off the day.Registration in advance or on the day of takes place at The Thirsty Boot from to 11.the United Church on Townshippers\u2019 Day Sept.16.K1A 0A6 (613) 947-8185 (514) 266-6062 Do you have some proud old bams or outbuildings?DENIS I would like to photograph them for a book I am working on.I'd like to capture these PARADIS, nr.: beautiful old buildings before they disappear Brome-Missisquoi HOUSE OF COMMONS L from the landscape.Please write me at: Room oh Jon Build ou South Street hc Box 417, Mansonville, Que.JOE 1X0 Confederation Building vite 100 sa \u201cNek and/or visit my slide show of Farmscapes at House of Commons Cowansville (Québec) Ottawa (Ontario) J2K 2X2 Jane Hamilton $5343:343434043a3030040438 == W.D.DUKE ASSOCIATES LTD.®.op.: Stéphane Doucet gg os Phone/Fax: 539-2733 or 539-1230 ae ep W.D.DUKE ASSOCIES LTÉE ee R.Doucet @@ cs (819) 838-5379 26 LS \u2026 «109 William St.es as \u2014 Professional Financial, Taxation cowansville, 2.oe Priced t in!

compromising; helping a friend and not being scared to ask for help; being positive and trusting cach other and most importantly, settling conflicts peacefully.How did we do that?Well, if there was a disagreement the drill was: wait until we can sit down together and everybody is listening; decide who speaks first and only one person at a time talking.Now, the only way this works is if you all believe in the process.One day we were painting and one of the children needed what somebody else was using (of course!).| acted out how to politely get what you want, \u201cOh, excuse me, could | please use the red for a minute.\u201d.Well, | went on .s Peden and on, quite silly really and referred to this as \u201cthe polite way\u201d.Then I started to chant, \u201cWe are the polite kids.\u201d and the children joined in.Next, we decided to make a sign for the door with this statement and the students\u2019 signatures.Somehow the word polite was replaced with \u201ccooperating\u201d and so the saga continued.Well, you might be thinking, is there a point to this story?This spring everything was tumed upside down at Mansonville Elementary School.Due to staffing cutbacks we were losing a well liked and excellent teacher.As a principal with teaching duties 1 was assigned 80% of a teaching load.The Bedford Association of Teachers filed a grievance because a principal teaching such a large load effects teaching positions and the association was legally correct.the community wanted their principal on site full time and if the principal wasn\u2019t - * -°27* * népétiètionh Sega) * * \"7\" involved was'concermed 23 ta 000 OR doing some teaching then how could the school board afford to keep a full time principal in such a small school.Another small school, Famham, needed a principal and maybe | would be assigned there part time, but what that community felt would be appropriate for meeting their needs was a teacher released part time to do principal duties.Well, 1 don\u2019t know if you can follow all this but my summary of the situation would be this: everybody was right but each solution individually considered could only be solved with large amounts of money or by somebody losing, that is, we had a conflict to be resolved.What happened was this; we did what Mansonville Kindergarten does, we sat down together and took tums talking until everyone's position and all the background information was clear.This gave food for thought and What was the result?Without going into too many details: Mansonville's principal remains and is teaching next year; our excess teacher does not have to transfer to another school and the Farnham community has advertised for a teacher who will be released part time for administrative duties.Through a series of compromises the teachers\u2019 association and the school board were able to meet the needs of the different groups involved.The association not only worked hard at achieving a agreement that will work for everybody, they also stated thai they respect the school community need for a principal who teaches.Like all compromises it may not be perfect but I can\u2019t imagine another scenario which would have been as fair to all the people touched by ths conflict of needs.You might be asking yourself why there has been no mention of students in this story.Everybody Lied RINTZ YN, ATTAIN KROITEINT.D As ied ¢ god about how to staff schools to meet the children\u2019s needs.the needs are great and there are never enough resources.this inevitably results in conflict at times.What we have done together is prove that we can resolve coflict in a win/win style.Children learn more from what we do, than from what we say.Seems to me.we have modeled what we preach; peaceful and fair conflict resolution.In Mansonville Elementary School we teach non-violence and solving problems, \u201cwith words\u201d.We also practice the belief that part of this process is the celebration of success, that being positive yields positive results.It\u2019s easy to be negative and sce what's wrong in any given situation.These are difficult times, you only have to listen to the evening news, it's reflected in every story.The District of Bedford School board has many positive attributes.Perhaps, again, we should practice what we preach, celebration.Principal BLESEE3311333321 5 Hove We peo torhour from Things I Like To Do.I love to have Time to play To watch butterflies, To listen to birds, To pick flowers And to be Someone's friend.Karla Ekdom-Delorme Level Two STUDENT SERVICES NEWS For the 95-96 school year the Student Services team of the district of Bedford will include the following people: Suzanne Derry * addiction counsellor at M.VILS Peter Hamilton * psychoeducator for all school: Jo-Anne Hebert * speech pathologist for all schools Kathy Mauro * psychologist for all schools Connie Peacock * school counsellor at M.VH.S.Tom Ransom * pastoral animator at M.V.HS.Jocelyne Nadeau * secretary Jim Colley * coordinator for Student Services/Special Education Services In addition, this year there will be two interns working in Student Services.They are: Heidi Beakes *+ guidance counsellor inters from McGill University Nancy Tremblay * psychoeducator intern from Université de Sherbrooke Heidi will work 3 days per week at M.VHS., while Nancy will work 5 days per week in a aumber of schools in the district.All of the people mentioned above can be reached a (514) 263-3772 ext.464, starting on Aug.14/95.If you have any questions about your child's progress in school, or would simply like to better understand the services available and ow they might be helpful, + 844 74 5 A sean GAGa ae ORIGINAL MICROFILMED AT VARYING INTENSITIES BECAUSE THE TEXT IS NOT PRINTED PROPERLY. 10\u2014KEYBOARD NEWS\u2014Wednesday, August 23, 1995 d, Keyboard News Clarenceville My Trip to Newcomb What I liked best about our trip was the squirrel hunt.I learned a lot about the red squirrel and I saw one too.The red squirrel is very small and can run at a fast speed.Where we went they trap the squirrels.and sometimes other animals like chipmunks.Once they have trapped the squirrel they put a tiny collar on them so they can later track them down with an antenna.We also learned how to use a compass.and how they catch the squirrels.There also were other animals and species like some tiny lizards that were all over the place.It was a very interesting day, and also very tiring.by Sarah Campbell Clarenceville Elementary @ Grade 6 and sec.1 students from Clarenceville Elementary pose at Crow 2 Point as part of their year long project on \u201cThe Champlain Basin\u201d.the y Students spend two days in mid-June exploring the area visiting historical forts at Crown Point and Ticonderoga and learning about the wild life and eco-systems of the area.Front row, left to right: Brian Shedrick, Cindy Lia Clark receives a plaque from Commissioner Mike Beerwort and Brian Shedrick from Clarenceville Elementary collecting Chartier, Krisey Cote, Sarah Campbell, Noreen Almond, Anna Burns.Back Mrs.Joy Capmbell as the student in Sec.1 with data for a transect at Newcomb to determine tree populations as red squirrel TOW: Ross Clark, Mike Beerwort, Chad Greshue, Nathan Barnard, Shannon the highest academic standing at Clarenceville habitat.Wilcon, Lia Clark.Elementary.i hn | TM > } : VE Pictured above are students from Mrs.Schell's class (Gr.2B) at Butler of > | ;
