serve as a visual reminder of each.Preserved covered bridges, ancestral buildings, monuments and more.For Potton Township, a beautiful round barn sits in the heart of its largest village and service center, Mansonville.Site of the present Saturday Public Market and for a time, prior to the structural concerns increasing, it was also used for historic displays and cultural celebrations.While the barn still sits proudly and picturesque as the backdrop for the market, outdoor events and historical photos, the building itself needs to be repaired to be used.The Potton Municipal Volunteer Group (GBMP) and Municipality of Pot- ton is reaching out to all citizens and local businesses seeking contributions and support for their new campaign in the hope of eventually seeing the Barn become an exhibition and community cultural animation center in the heart of Mansonville.According to the group, the Round Barn restoration project is rapidly progressing with approximately $150,000 dollars obtained already from public and private sources, including a $30,000 contribution from the Municipality of Potton Township, a $40,000 grant from the Memphrémagog MRC and a $10,000 grant from the Caisse Desjardins du Lac- Memphrémagog.The project also re- NS ceived donations from NexKemia and Power Corp.All these contributions are in addition to the amount of $50,000 collected since the beginning of the 2013 fundraising campaign.The GBMP tells us that, the initiative is part of the Cœurs villageois movement, which Potton has joined recently, and constituting an original and complementary element to the tourist attractions of the whole region, the project will contribute to the revitalization and economic stimulation of the village by increasing the number of visitors and tourism revenues.New grant applications have been submitted to Tourisme Cantons-de-l\u2019Est ($80,000) and the Department of Canadian Heritage ($170,000).A new fundraising campaign, launched ten days ago with a $40,000 objective, has already raised $20,000 from the general population.A short video on the Round Barn can be seen at: https://youtu.be/Mon5s6qYdEs.The GBMP and Municipality of Potton is

Festival comes to Richmond By Claudia Villemaire RICHMOND torized vans and campers, some arriving as early as Wednesday, for the annual Melbourne Camping Country music Festival, an event that's been a favourite for the folks who travel the province, enjoying RV events all summer and even until October.The RV Association of Quebec, working with local organizers, schedules over 60 country music and folklore festivals across the province every year.Te fairgrounds were filled with mo- Although the Melbourne Camping site is under new administration, the Dube family insisted on the annual country music festival, which was usually held on the camp site.\"Now, although we have retired from the actual campground, I know we'll be able to go to other festivals now, certainly not giving up camping ourselves,\" Both the Dube's agreed.With over one hundred and thirty RVs lined up on the fairgrounds and the Main Building transformed into an event locale where over a dozen country music groups entertained, beginning Wednesday evening, the organizers were well satisfied with the event.Sunday morning Father Benoit Houde, former pastor of St Bibiane Parish, wearing his favourite cowboy hat began his mass in the Main Building noting this was an outstanding congregation.With over two hundred people in attendance, country music songs and the relaxed atmosphere, participation was at a maximum.\"We are very happy with the event this year,\" said Nadia Dube, MC for the five-day event.\"Here at the fairgrounds, we've had plenty of space, great service from canteens and kiosks and a spectacular program of Quebecois artists every night to entertain these folks.And, oh yes, there were probably close to four hundred people for the Saturday night entertainment.\" Sunday morning Mass brought over two hundred folk to the Main Building and even though it was the last day of the festival, there were very few signs of folks packing up, getting ready to leave.In addition, rumour has it; plans for the festival next year already include using the fairgrounds for the event.Terry Fox Run 1n Richmond By Claudia Villemaire RICHMOND Run participants posed not prob- em as over sixty folks of all ages and mobility filtered back for their brunch at the legion Branch 15 in Richmond.There were as many as some years,\" said Pat Henderson, the chief organizer of the annual event for over forty years.\"But, with this beautiful weather, we had no complaints from any participants who enjoyed the 9 a.m.exercise before the sun heated up the pavement and sidewalks\" There were youngsters on bikes, folks who barely used their canes and many veterans of the Terry Fox Run since it began.\"We see folks taking part wearing R in var up a group of Terry Fox Grace Village grand

Saturday\u2019s celebration, MRC Board Chairman brad Willms told attendees that the initial plan was to build a 90-unit fully operational complex and a forth wing that would remain unfinished for the time being.Thanks to a generous donation, the fourth wing of the butterfly-shaped pavilion was completed, and 25 additional assisted living spaces were made available.\u201cThe planning team really did their homework,\u201d Willms said, explaining that the pavilion applied the best practices and most current technology for the design and construction of the facility.He pointed out that the heating radiates from the floors, all the lighting in the building is energy efficient, and the safety and security features are the best currently available on the market.Willms drew attention to the support of the community, referring to over 100 community members who came in the spring to help move top soil by the wheelbarrow into the therapeutic gar- the red T-shirt, a sign they are survivors of the dreaded cancer.The black and white T-shirt is worn by folks who are supporters of the fund-raising campaign,\" explained Joe, 'King Can' Kelly whose reputation as a collector of bottles and returnable cans is close to a legend in the region.Canvassing for funds has been on-going during the summer months, and, although the final tally has not been made, if past years are any indication of the generosity in the region, the final amount will be well into the thousands of dollars.\"I want to thank everyone for coming out, especially the youngsters who turned up on their bikes and the participants who brought their children along too.That's a positive sign for future events,\" Henderson emphasized.dens.\u201cMoving day was quite an operation,\u201d Willms added, thanking volunteers who helped the residents get settled in the new pavilion.Local political figures attended Saturday\u2019s event, offering their congratulations to the MRC on 60 years of caring for seniors in the area, and applauding the completion of the Grace Village Pavilion, a mammoth undertaking by all accounts.\u201cIt\u2019s the fruit of all your hard work that is being celebrated today,\u201d said Compton-Stanstead MP Marie-Claude Bibeau.\u201cI've only heard good things about your team,\u201d she added, pointing out how quickly the MRC mobilised to create a seniors complex that is unique in Quebec.\u201cI'm sure you have a long waiting list,\u201d Bibeau said, \u201cI guess Bernard and I should put our names on it now.\u201d \u201cWow,\u201d was the first thing Lennoxville Borough President David Price had to say on Saturday.\u201cLess than two years ago, this was really just a pipe dream,\u201d he said.Price said a project of this type comes with its share of red tape, and complimented the municipal employees behind the scenes who worked and reworked the project and dealt with all CLAUDIA VILLEMAIRE the paperwork to keep construction on schedule.\u201cCongrats, and long life to Grace Village.\u201d Barbara Allatt, Campaign Committee Co-Chair, praised the hard work of all involved in the Grace Village Pavilion project, as well the generosity of sponsors from the community, which have raised $10 million so far.With a price tag of $14 million, Allatt pointed out that the fundraising campaign is ongoing.\u201cThere was never a better time to donate,\u201d she said, hoping the MRC, a not-for-profit organization, can meet its goal and continue to offer quality care for area seniors for years to come.The speeches ended with a blessing from John Klinck, son of Grace Christian Home founder Dr.William John Klinck and Honorary President of the Dr.W.J.Klinck Foundation.A ribbon-cutting ceremony then took place at the front entrance of Grace Village.ms sn 7 Leu

August of this year in an effort to get the more recent photo.It is not perfect, but it is close enough for comparison, I think.Looking at the older photo prompted, Guy Hamel, the parish

Quebec City, now in the midst of a by-election on Oct.2, has been the home turf to an impressive parade of political luminaries since it came into being in 1966.For some of those notables, the

Revolution.He won the seat with a thumping majority over his Union Nationale opponent, but, alas, in a quirk of electoral mathematics that would make Hillary Clinton grimace, Lesage\u2019s Liberals

linguistic communities to work together.The \"Rivières de lumières\" festival officially begins on September 29th at Ap.m.with a lantern making workshop at the Centre des Arts de la Scene Jean- Besré on Depot Street in Sherbrooke.The workshop continues the following day at of 10 a.m.and goes right up until the time comes for people to take up their creations and walk in a \u201cparade of light\u201d through the downtown at 7 p.m.As was the case last year, the revelers will be treated to live music and dramatic pre- party of Daniel Johnson, but came away with fewer seats.When the Liberals returned to power under Robert Bourassa in 1970, the new member for Louis Hébert was Claude Castonguay, who co-chaired a commission on health care in Quebec.Upon his election, Bourassa tasked Castonguay to implement the plan as health minister.Castonguay did not run in the 1973 election, but was called upon subsequently to offer his wisdom on the evolution of the system he helped create.He\u2019s still on the scene at age 88.The 1976 election found Louis Hébert joining the nationalist surge with the Parti Québecois, electing Claude Morin, one of the key players in the René Lévesque government.After the PQ lost the 1980 referendum, Morin left politics.One story is he was frustrated by the defeat; the other explanation is he was shown the door having been exposed as a paid informant for the RCMP.Morin\u2019s Liberal opponent in the 1976 election was Jean Marchand, one of the three \u201cwise men\u201d Prime Minister Lester Pearson recruited in Quebec to combat separatism.Marchand, who was Pearson\u2019s initial choice to succeed him as Liberal leader, was named to the Senate after the failed provincial adventure, by Pearson\u2019s second choice, Pierre Elliott Trudeau.Louis Hébert would swing back and forth between the PQ and the Liberals over the next 40 years, voting Oui in both the 1980 and 1995 referendums, and drawing such fated candidates as future PQ star minister Louise Beaudoin, flashy crusading lawyer Guy Bertrand, controversial radio host André Arthur, and, in the 2003 election that brought Jean Charest to power, Guy Laforest, a prominent Laval University political science professor and sovereignist, who ran for the Action Démocratique du Québec (ADQ), finishing a close third to the PQ candidate.That election was the first of five that Liberal Sam Hamad would win.In two of those contests, 2007 and 2012, the candidates for the ADQ and its successor, the Coalition Avenir Québec, were nipping at Hamad\u2019s electoral heels.The point being that, based on previous voting history, Louis Hébert is a winnable riding for the CAQ.So the stakes are mighty high in the by-election for all three competitive parties.The importance of the race, however, seems to have escaped the Liberal and CAQ vetters, both of whose candidates dropped out on the same day for the same reason of dubious behaviour in their previous occupations.Both parties quickly found new candidates, coincidentally, women with no known record of workplace antics.The Liberals turned to Syrian-born Sam Hamad\u2019s trusty right-hand woman for many years, Moroccan-born Ihssane El Ghernati, 51.The CAQ opted for the calming face of tragedy, 34-year-old Geneviève Guilbault, spokesperson for the Quebec coroner\u2019s office during the Lac Mégantic and L'Isle-Verte disasters.She worked as a media advisor under previous Liberal governments.Polls show the CAQ overtaking the PQ as the most likely potential alternative to the Liberals in the general election less than a year away.Louis Hebert, thus, becomes a test of whether leader Francois Legault can make gains in what could be a fertile urban territory for a quasi-nationalist, conservative-leaning party.In the 2007 election, which brought the ADQ to official Opposition status under Mario Dumont, the party won seven of the 11 seats in the Quebec City region.The PQ candidate in the by-election is Normand Beauregard, a civil servant and biologist, who - you never know - may end up surprising both the Liberals and PQ in Louis Hebert.sentations along the way.\u201cWe\u2019re

will be something of a prologue to the fairy tale presented last year.In that way, she said, newcomers will be able to enjoy the story without worrying about missing information but people who came out in 2016 will recognize elements of the story and familiar characters.\u201cWe\u2019re building into the past,\u201d Holli- day said, adding that people who want more information about last year\u2019s story can find it on the festival\u2019s website.The festival was created as a result of a three year partnership agreement and funding plan.On the cusp of that three year mark, Holliday said that the partner groups are already looking at how to make the idea continue.\u201cWhat is clear is that all of the partners in the project and the people that we work with closely would like the project to continue,\u201d Holliday said, adding that there is a consistent and growing interest from the general public.\u201cNow it depends on finances; we want this event to continue but to a certain extent it doesn\u2019t depend on us.\u201d More information about the festival is available at https://petiteslanternes.wixsite.com/rdl- en.While the lantern workshops, parade, and market are free to attend, it is worth noting that the play is a ticketed event.The Record welcomes your letters to the editor.Please limit your letters to 300 words.We reserve the right to edit for length,

parents found out last year and became extremely angry with me.All I feel now is their hatred.They say [ am a disgrace.Though they still take care of my needs \u2014 food, clothes, shelter, etc.\u2014 they say that when I turn 18, I'll be on my own.I am not included in any family outings or welcome at any of my relatives\u2019 homes.I try really hard to get them to love me again.I work hard at school and have excellent grades.I am constantly doing work around the house, but nothing gets acknowledged.I try to apologize for being gay, but they won\u2019t hear it.The only one in my family who still seems to love me is my big brother, but he is in the Army and only comes home a couple of times a year.He has talked to my parents on my behalf, but they don\u2019t listen to him at all.I have considered suicide, but I really don\u2019t want to die.I just want to be forgiven.Is there anything I can do?\u2014 \u201cRiley\u201d Dear Annie Dear Riley: I know life is very hard right now, but I

I don\u2019t want to sell it.Instead, I would like for my children to own it when I die.My children don\u2019t share the same connection to the farm that I do.I understand that they most likely will want to sell it so they can use the proceeds for something else.I am OK with that.The problem?My husband insists that I should put his name on the deed now or provide in my will that he will inherit the farm from me if I die before he does.He insists that I should do so \u201cas a sign of respect.\u201d He says that he might need to sell it to pay for his care in old age.I doubt that, because we are reasonably well- off, but I have offered to put the land in a trust so that if he doesn\u2019t have enough money to pay for his care, the income from the farm can be used to support him.He is not satisfied.I am worn-out from arguing.What should I do?\u2014 Love This Land Dear Love This Land: It is your ancestral farm, and you should do with it whatever you please.But seeing as you mentioned that money isn\u2019t really a concern, have you looked into donating the land?You seem to have such a deep connection with it that you might find joy in knowing it went to a good cause.Send your

My brother, who is 65, was diagnosed with inclusion body myositis about five years ago, and the muscles in his arms, legs and hands are deteriorating rapidly.He\u2019s someone who loves life, so this is very hard to watch.His physician says there\u2019s no cure.What can you tell me about the disease?Is it being studied anywhere?Dear Reader: We\u2019re very sorry to hear about your brother\u2019s struggles.We know from experience how difficult it is to see a loved one be unwell and be unable to help.Inclusion body myositis, also known as IBM, is a progressive degenerative muscle disease, sometimes also referred to as a muscle wasting disease.The word \u201cprogressive\u201d means that once the disease process begins, it will continue to advance.As you already learned, there is no treatment or cure for IBM at this time.However, advances in the areas of precision medicine and immunotherapy will hopefully lead to new methods to manage, if not cure, the disease.Let\u2019s start with what is known about inclusion body myositis.There are two types of IBM.One, which is extremely rare, is inherited.It results from a genetic defect that is passed along from a parent\u2019s DNA.The other form, which has no genetic link and is slightly more common, is known as sporadic.Sporadic IBM, also referred to as s-IBM, is seen most often in people 50 years and older.It is more common in men than in women.Although the exact cause of s-IBM is not yet known, it is believed to be the result of a malfunction in the immune system.In autoimmune disorders, the body\u2019s defense mechanisms mistakenly attack healthy tissue.In s-IBM, certain white blood cells attack muscle tissue and cause ongoing inflammation.There is also a second avenue of attack, which causes the muscle fibers to degenerate.For many people, the first symptom of s-IBM is an increasing tendency to stumble, trip or fall.This is due to damage to the quadriceps, the large muscles of the thighs.The muscles of the wrists and fingers are also often affected.Treatment at this time focuses on the use of corticosteroids to address inflammation, or drugs to suppress the immune system.However, several types of new drugs are now being studied in ongoing clinical trials.These are focused both on the inflammatory response in s- IBM, as well as stopping the progression of muscle destruction.Although some participants in the clinical trials have shown modest or even good response to the drugs, the benefits thus far have proven to be short-term.If you are interested in learning more about clinical trials for s-IBM, visit clini- caltrials.gov, a government website that lists studies receiving federal funding, as well as some that are funded by private industry.For information about clinical trials at the National Institutes of Health Clinical Center, located in Bethesda, Maryland, call the NIH Patient Recruitment Office at (800) 411-1222.Or you can email prpl@mail.cc.nih.gov.Follow The
