the early morning of Thursday Nov.15 when the father, 66-year-old Roy Lowden, left home about 5:45 a.m.and walked to his sugar shack 500 metres from the family\u2019s Covey Hill farmhouse.He stationed himself near a window in the structure to watch for deer.He didn\u2019t know that his son Lee, who lived in the same house, had also come outside, and was walking through the woods toward the shanty, looking for deer.Shooting at what he thought was a deer about 150 metres away, Roy Low- den went to check and found the body ry president this year is Ste-Barbe weight lifter Julien Galipeau

Taylor THE GLEANER As alarm continues to mount about the introduction of industrial-style pig farms into the Haut-St-Laurent, the MRC is calling for the provincial agriculture minister to impose a one-year moratorium on all new pig farms, and to make a personal visit before year\u2019s end, to meet with municipal officials and the public.In a November letter to minister Maxime Arsenau, MRC prefect Paul-Maurice Pate- naude asked for the moratorium \u201cin order that together, those who favor the piggeries and those who oppose them can find common ground which will prove satisfactory to most MRC residents\u201d.On behalf of the MRC and its residents, Patenaude has invited Arsenau and three of his colleagues (Louise Harel of Municipal Affairs, Environment minister André Boisclair and Rémy Trudel of Health and Social Services) to come here and discuss the mega-piggery issue with local people.Several locations The issue is front and centre not only in Elgin, where a majority of residents have rallied around a protest movement against a proposed 1,200-sow operation, but also in Ormstown, where Outardes Road residents in particular are voicing alarm about Local couple cited for bravery in May 2000 rescue from Judith Taylor THE GLEANER Eighteen months after they pulled a drowning man from an overturned car in the Chateauguay River at Huntingdon, two Athelstan residents have received bravery awards from the Quebec government.On Monday Nov.19, Bobby Campbell and Louise Hurteau were among 24 Que- becers honored at a special ceremony in the provincial capital, held to mark Quebec Citizenship Week.Early in the morning of May 16, 2000, the couple were driving along the River Road in Huntingdon when an oncoming car travelling at high speed swerved out of control and into the Chateauguay River near the Civic Centre Pool.Couldn\u2019t swim Neither Campbell nor Hurteau can swim, but when they realized the vehicle had See BRAVERY page 3 ver BNP a) A = = Louise

minjstry for a 2,750-pig facility.Godmanchester and St-Anicet are other communities which either have, or are slated for, large pig operations.Central to the growing concern about the introduction of large-scale pig production is an element of public mistrust about incomplete impact studies and current government legislation intended to protect the environment.\u201cThe studies on short- and long-term impact of such operations are far from being conclusive and transparent, and we hope we can get together and study their implications for our quality of life.\u201d the prefect said.MRC prefect P-M Patenaude: writes Many doubts As well as fearing pollution of local waterways resulting from saturation of soils with large amounts of liquid pig manure, Haut-St-Laurent residents \u201care not ready to sacrifice their quality of life in return for money, or for the sake of huge profits for a livestock industry completely dependent on the export market,\u201d Patenaude said.Another area which needs to be clarified is the division among provincial, regional and local authorities of powers and responsibilities for controlling such operations.\u201cA visit from the minister would help to define more clearly the extent of the powers of each level of government,\u201d the prefect added.\u201cThe MRC neither supports nor opposes the introduction of the pig-farms; we simply want to know more about how and where this sector of agricultural production is governed by Quebec laws,\u201d Pate- naude said.Montreal star-gazers find a new home in the dark countryside of the Valley Judith Taylor THE GLEANER The Chateauguay Valley has a resource not often listed in promotional material or government reports: it's dark here at night, and in the more remote areas, extremely dark.Seeking the dark is a way of life for amateur astronomers from the big city, where the constant nighttime glow reflected from the urban milieu wreaks havoc with their attempts to view the stars, planets, comets and other phenomena of the night sky, such as the November 18 Leonid Meteor Shower, an annual event in which thousands of \u201cshooting stars\u201d can be seen in the pre-dawn sky.The Montreal's Planetarium\u2019s Société d\u2019Astronomie has a total of about 350 members.Among them, perhaps 20 hardcore amateurs brave the chill of the night at least once a month, weather permitting, to set up their telescopes and view the wonders of the heavens.Their search for darkness and an exposure to the southern horizon, the best direction to observe astronomical events, has led the members of the club to some strange venues.Night-time prowlers \u201cWhen we first started coming out to this region, we were setting up in the tourist rest area on Route 202 adjacent to Safari Park,\u201d recalled Société vice-president Michel Nicole, \u201cbut there were certain disadvantages, including the headlights of big trucks passing on the road nearby.\u201cBut the weirdest part was very late at night when we would hear some extremely large animals moving around in the dark, very close to us.We just hoped the PL EU QU A RAA RAS Park fence was in good shape.\u201d The members soon began to think about finding another location.\u201cIt takes the human eye half an hour to adapt fully to the dark, and passing head-' lights means the adjustment process has to start all over again,\u201d explained club president Louise Ouellette.Approaching the municipality of Hem- mingford Township in search of a new site for the club\u2019s star-gazing sessions, board member Yannick Harrison and Nicole were led to property-owners Jim Laurie and Bill Beattie, who welcomed the idea of the club using a piece of land in front of a disused barn on the Brownlee Rd.South.Now the Société has put up an inconspicuous sign to welcome members and also See STARS page 3 NIDA MVR vitres d'eutes Bicycle rack ou: NIDA LH vitres d'autos 2790 boul.Hébert, (Nitro), St-Timothée prés Dour

would like to inform anyone who may be concerned about our water bottling Leahy Orchards has a processing plant in Franklin Centre, the main production is applesauce.To make applesauce it is essential to have a good supply of water.In the early 1990's, we were using 500 gallons per minute for 10 hours production, plus another 24 000 gallons for the clean-up.We have succeeded in lowering our water usage every year by investing heavily in new equipment, being more efficient, we are now using 300 gallons per minute.We have meters on our wells, so these numbers are precise.By February of 2002, we will be reducing our water usage by at least another 40 gallons per minute.It will then be down to 260 gallons per minute.In the past 10 years, our applesauce production has increased, per hour, by 4 1/2 times and we have reduced the actual gallons of water used, per hour, by about half.In 1997, the Labrador Company (Danone) negotiated with our neighbour, Mr.Serge Boileau.They drilled a pumping well plus 3 monitoring wells, conducted a ground water research study and proceeded with a pumping test at a rate of 300 gallons per Our plant was in production that week and we noticed no effect on our wells, even though they are not more than 1 000 feet from the pumping well on the Boileau site.The test was successful.Leahy Orchards Inc.did not support or oppose the Labrador Mrs.Agathe Faille requested a meeting with Leahy Orchards Inc.She was soliciting our support in opposing the Labrador water project.I met with them along with Michael Leahy and Claude Taillefer in my office on Friday, July 11th 1997 at 3:00 p.m.Mrs.Agathe Faille was accompanied by Mrs.Monique Desnommée.Mrs.Faille explained that she did not trust a big multi-national company like Danone, but if a local company such as Leahy Orchards wanted to bottle water she would not oppose it.She had a great idea, but we still remained neutral.In May 1998, Leahy Orchards had a ground water research study done by the Envir'eau Puits company.They drilled a pumping well and 4 monitoring wells.At a site on Michael Leahy\u2019s farm, pumping tests were done for 3 days (72 hours) at 40 gallons per The reason monitoring wells are required is to take measurements of the water levels on a regular basis each time we do a pumping test.It is to monitor what effect, if any, Some people were concerned that although everything went well, it might not be representative of pumping tests done during a dry spell, when all the irrigation wells were We then proceeded with a second pumping test by the same Envir'eau Puits company on the same well.We started on April 2, 1999 and pumped continuously until August 6, 1999 (4 months) at 40 gallons per minute.Even though it was a dry summer, the In both tests, water samples were taken before and after pumping, from all wells within a 1 km radius of the pumping well, where the owner would permit us.The samples were then sent for laboratory analysis.These results were all favourable.In November 2000, Mr.Serge Boileau advised us that there was a serious buyer inter- We were concerned because we did not know what volume of water they would use.We asked Mr.Boileau to give us the first refusal on the sale of his farm and he agreed.In May 2001, Mr.Boileau advised us that we had 2 weeks to make a decision, otherwise he was going to finalize the sale to the other buyer.We decided to buy his farm to protect the water supply of Leahy Orchards and the surrounding neighbours.We proceeded to drill 3 more monitoring wells.The pumping well was now sur- A ground water research study and pumping tests were done by the Envir'eau Puits company at the rate of 90 gallons per minute for 9 days from 2:00 p.m.October 15, 2001 until 2:00 p.m.October 24, 2001.Water samples were taken from all the wells, where the owners would permit us, before and after the pumping tests, within a radius of 1 km of the pumping well and sent to a laboratory for analysis.We have had no complaints from any of our neighbours who permitted us to take sam- We have not yet received the result of the ground water research study, but it looks promising.1 of the 6 monitoring wells continued to overflow throughout the pumping tests, one was not affected at all and the others did not go much below ground When Leahy Orchards receives a water bottling permit from the Ministère de l\u2019Environnement du Québec, we feel it is very unlikely that another company will ever We will not sell any bulk water in tankers and will use it only for our water bottling There are 5 springs overflowing within a few hundred feet of our pumping well, one of which is flowing about 75 gallons per minute most of which runs off into the Black With a geat water resource like this, it is inevitable that someone will tap into it.It is much better that Leahy Orchards Inc.does it responsibly than someone that might There is no reason why some of the best water in the world cannot be bottled for The folks at Leahy Orchards Inc.wish to thank everyone who is favouring our water project and especially all our neighbours who participated with the water samples.Anyone whose concerns

rotation.Members bring their equipment out to the site for each gathering.but part of the barn will provide some shelter for the amateur astronomers, who stand outdoors for long hours through the coldest part of fall and winter nights.\u201cWe usually try to hold at least a couple of meetings during mid-winter,\u201d said Nicole.\u201cso we'll have a heater inside to take the chill off for a few minutes at least.\u201d Ouellette and Nicole, both Montreal professionals enjoying early retirement, are completely enamored of astronomy, one field of endeavor in which amateurs have made important discoveries.\u201cThere have been so many advances in technology that the amateurs of today have equipment as good as professionals were using 10 years ago,\u201d explained Nicole.Special relationship For Ouellette, her recently-purchased telescope is far more than a piece of equipment.\u201cWhen you first look at the sky through your very own telescope, a special relationship begins \u2014 you may have seen that planet or star before, but it's as if you were making a kind of contact with it for the first time,\u201d said the former social worker, whose enthusiasm shines through her every word.As well as being extremely grateful to the Beattie and Laurie families who have given the club a home-away-from-home, the Montreal astronomers are more than ready to share their love of the stars with Valley people.\u201cWe time our monthly sessions for the period of the new moon, when visibility is better.Of course, if the weather is cloudy, we must postpone the gathering to another night,\u201d Ouellette said.Debbie Beattie, Bill's daughter and also the chairperson of the governing board at Hemmingford ElementarySchool, is enthusiastic about the arrival of the astronomers in the area, and the learning experience they might offer to local children.She says that anyone interested in learning more about the Société\u2019s meetings in the area may call her at (450) 247-2720.The

sve.wo d QUEBEC SHOUL Even if the latest move by the MRC Haut- St-Laurent is only playing for time, it's better than nothing, as we're all finally assimilating the fact that the pig-farm issue is important, and that it\u2019s not going to go away.It is alarming people across the country, not only those in this part of Quebec.We've either seen or heard of recent TV programs discussing the pig-farm question in New Brunswick and Manitoba, while the radio just this moming mentioned concern in Alberta, where the government hopes to take control of large-scale livestock operations.In that news item, the watchword \u201cWalkerton\u201d was mentioned by one warning voice, And of course, the French-language NFB production \u201cBacon, le Film\u201d has been exciting controversy here, what with accusations that it is biased and out-of-date on the one hand, and with strong support from those .torial - LE vst D TAKE CHARGE individuals and groups opposing mega-farm- ing on the other.Inviting four Quebec government ministers to make a personal visit here is a good PR move, but more important is the request for a provincial one-year moratorium on new large pork operations.The MRC itself has passed a 90-day freeze, but that will soon expire, and even there, local and regional government may well be inching over the boundary into the realm of provincial jurisdiction \u2014 it\u2019s unclear who controls what.The bottom line here is that once damage is done, you can't undo it.So it\u2019s better to be sure.And there is enough uncertainly about the strength and effectiveness of current legislation designed to protect the rural environment to warrant putting on the brakes for at least a year.gm FROM GLEANER ARCHIVES.120 years ago November 17, 1881 FAX MACHINE

less cream than the milk of other patrons.On the 28th October Frankland went out and saw the cows, 4 in number, milked, when their yield was found to be of the same quality as that of the cows of other patrons.This was the evidence for the prosecution.In defence, it was argued that the milk bad been neither watered or skimmed.Ruddock was fined $20 and costs, which was paid.November 19, 1941

son Lee Lowden Lee Lowden\u2019s hearty laugh and his genuine interest in other people are qualities that so many Chateauguay Valley people will remember.His presence was always marked by a spirit of fun, whether with buddies at a party or pub, or with young children who liked his teasing.As Kelly Daniel recalls, for many years at the Havelock Community Centre, \u201cLee was our Santa Claus.\u201d Lee was a faithful visitor at many homes.Diane McDer- mott of Huntingdon says he would pull into their driveway every second Saturday: \u201cYou could set your clock by it.\u201d Next-door neighbors at Covey Hill corner remember his knock at their door on a (Photo: PN) winter evening or a mid-day chat by the side of the road from his tractor seat.The late Jimmie Allen who lived nearly a century in Havelock enjoyed Lee's visits and was pleased that there were still young people who would take time to talk and were not in a rush like everyone else these days.Topics of conversation with Lee could range from horticulture and farming techniques to current news events or memories of past happenings.He had a keen interest in nature and shared his observations of birds and wildlife spotted in the sugar- bush.He was widely read and although he was not one to discuss controversial topics like politics or religion, his mother Margaret recalls that the Bible was among the books he studied.Good listener A great deal of his knowledge and his stories came from listening to others, another of his traits that most of us have lost in today's busy world.Although he spent all of his 39 years living on Covey Hill, Lee got a perspective on the outside world through occasional cross-country 18-wheeler travels with his cousin Ross Sutton to places like Boston and Texas.After the miserable month spent without electricity during the 1998 ice storm, Lee took off for a holiday in Cuba.if Lee Lowden (on Sports tractor) takes a break from apple-harvest chores to chat with a visitor to the family\u2019s Covey Hill orchard.On the family farm, Lee worked alongside his father Roy through all of the seasons.Together they attended farm information meetings in the winter, tapped maples in the spring, pruned and sprayed ry the apple trees all summer, and harvested the orchards in the fall.They were innovative and unafraid to try new tricks for keeping deer out of the orchards or experimenting with new varieties and grafts.Strawberries, currants, asparagus and giant pumpkins were all grown under Lee\u2019s care at one time or another.Fair director Lee Lowden served as a director on the Havelock Fair Board and worked behind the scenes.This year was particularly hot and he was spotted carrying water to all of the volunteers on the grounds.It's a good thing Lee was handy with engine and mechanical repairs because he was hard on machinery.His father recalls that he would drive a car until there was nothing left of it.Carol Lalonde of Orms- town remembers Lee leaving their home after a celebration and taking out their mailbox with his car.She says he drove down that driveway like it was the Trans- Canada Highway.Such tales of Lee's antics will be told for a long time by his close friends and his younger brothers Scott and Len.As life-long neighbor Gregg Edwards said in his eulogy, the sun will rise a little brighter and a litle warmer over the east slope of Covey Hill because of Lee Lowden.(PN) Minor hockey results from Sunday Nov.11 A total of four wins and one loss were reported from Huntingdon Minor Hockey for Sunday Nov.11.Huntingdon's Atom

St-Remi The recent dedication of a memorial in St.George's churchyard at St-Rémi brought together a group of people to honor the souls of the early settlers buried there.The ceremony marked the culmination of years of research by Chateauguay resident Malcolm Orr and other Valley people into the history and authentication of the site.This was not an easy task, as there was no record even of the existence of the church in the St-Rémi town records.It was later established that the land had been expropriated and that the present site is not the location of the original church.The research also showed that according to Synod journals, the church, although officially names St.George's of St-Rémi, has always maintained missionary status, linking it with St.Matthew's, Edwardstown.Services in the church were discontinued in 1894-95, although burials continued, according to the sketchy information which is available.After the land was expropriated in the 1970s, the property deteriorated rapidly.Restoration Once funds were raised, the land was surveyed, a new fence and archway were built, and two monuments were erected, one recording the history of the church and cemetery, and the other bearing the names of people known to be buried there.The September 23 memorial service was led by Rev.Linda Faith Chalk of the Anglican Diocese of Montreal.The Venn.Ville de HUNTINGDON PUBLIC

Patrice Laflamme LA SOURCE La confection de courtepointes s\u2019est avérée une véritable passion pour Éve- lyne Tremblay depuis sa tendre enfance.Malgré son grand âge, cette résidente de Franklin continue de nourrir un vif intérêt pour ces couvertures artisanales qu\u2019elle a fabriquées au cours des années Elle a beau avoir 85 ans, Mme Tremblay demeure enthousiaste quand il est question de ces pièces qu\u2019elle a conçues au fil des années.Il y a 75 ans, elle a été mise en contact avec ce métier d\u2019art qui est devenue son principal hobby.Bien assise à une chaise dans la cuisine de sa maison de Franklin en compagnie de sa bru, Rachelle Lemire, la dame raconte qu\u2019elle fabrique des courtepointes depuis 1926 et que sa mère aussi en réalisait, de même que sa grand-mère.«À Noël, le Père Noël m'a offert comme cadeaux une machine à coudre et une poupée.C\u2019est à partir de là que j'ai commencé à en faire (des courtepointes) pour ma poupée.C\u2019est ma mère qui m\u2019a montré comment en fabriquer-, a-t-elle confié lorsque The Gleaner/ La Source l\u2019a rencontrée chez elle.Durant toutes ces années, Mme Tremblay a réalisé tellement de courtepointes qu'elle ne peut plus se souvenir du nombre exact.Sa demeure regorge de ces couvertures faites de ses propres mains dont elle prend un soin jaloux.Au cours de l'entretien, Mme Tremblay et sa bru ont pris un malin plaisir à montrer plusieurs de leurs créations.Elles font voir entre autres une splendide pièce intitulée «Triple Irish Chain» comptant l 800 petits carreaux en tissu mesurant un pouce chacun, une nappe confectionnée il y à 20 ans et vendue 600$, des taies d'oreiller, des centres de table et des petites de bébé.La vieille dame a aussi conçu des nappes de toile irlandaise qui, selon elle, sont tres dispendieuses.\u201cCela peut prendre des mois pour faire une courtepointe\u201d, dit-elle avec le sourire.Mais parmi toutes ces courtepointes réalisées, trois lui tiennent particulièrement à cœur.Il s\u2019agit de trois reproductions des drapeaux québécois, canadien et américain, sur chacune d'elles sont brodés les noms de tous les chefs de gouvernement qui se sont succédé dans l\u2019histoire de ces nations.-Ce sont mes toutes dernières œuvres et elles sont originales.Je ne pense pas que d'autres aient fait la même chose que moi», soutient Mme Tremblay.Pour l\u2019unifolié, Mme Tremblay a mis quatre mois de travail.La vieille dame a une bonne raison de se souvenir des circonstances qui ont entouré la conception de cette courte- inte américaine.Celle-ci fut complétée e 11 septembre dernier, le jour même des attentats terroristes à New York et à Washington.\u201cCe sera une date mémorable pour moi, à inscrire l\u2019endos de la pièce.C\u2019est une pure coïncidence et je trouve que ça va lui donner plus de valeur\u201d, estime-t-elle.Si elle en a aussi gardé plusieurs chez elle, l\u2019octogénaire dit en avoir aussi donné pour des œuvres charitables en plus d'en vendre à des particuliers venus la visiter.\u201cDes gens de Paris en visite ici sont venus m\u2019en chercher.Des Amérindiens aussi.J'ai peut-être vendu une centaine de pièces\u201d, se souvient-elle.Après avoir pris autant d'années passées à fabriquer, Mme Tremblay estime que l'heure est venue de tirer sa révérence.Elle a commencé à souffrir de la maladie de Parkinson et éprouve des petits problèmes avec ses yeux.«Je peux encore broder un peu mais du côté des courtepointes, je pense que je n'en ferais plus.Mais ce n'est pas le désir qui man- ue pourtant\u201d, a confié la vénérable ame.Toutefois, Mme Tremblay peut se consolider en pensant que sa bru, Rachelle Lemire, prend en quelque sorte le relais de la tradition familiale.H y a un an, cette enseignante a la retraite

attribuer l'une des 21 mentions d'honneur du civisme décernées cette année par le gouvernement du Québec.Robert Campbell et Louise Hurteau font partie de la liste des 24 citoyens de diverses régions de la province qui ont été honorés lundi matin par le ministre des Relations avec les citoyens et de l'Immigration, Joseph Facal, en la salle du conseil législatif de l\u2019hôtel du Parlement de Québec.Il s'agissait de la dix- huitième édition de la cérémonie de l\u2019'Hommage au civisme qui se déroulait dans le cadre de la Semaine québécoise de la citoyenneté et qui se voulait le premier des Rendezvous québécois de la citoyenneté.Trois autres personnes ont reçu la médaille du civisme.La mention d'honneur du civisme consiste en un parchemin calligraphié attribué à une personne ayant accompli un acte de courage et de dévouement dans des circonstances difficiles.En recevant cette distinction, M.Campbell et Mme Hurteau devaient sûrement se remémorer les circonstances qui les ont amenées à intervenir le matin du 16 mai 2000 lors d\u2019un accident qui s\u2019est déroulé à Hinchinbrooke.Le couple circulait en voiture le long de la rivière Châteauguay quand une automobile venant en sens inverse et roulant à haute vitesse dévie de sa trajectoire.Le véhicule capote dans le cours d'eau, non loin de la piscine municipale de Huntin .L'un des deux occupants, deux jeunes , réussit à sortir mais l\u2019autre demeure coincé sous l\u2019eau.Témoins de cet accident, M.Campbell et Mme Hurteau arrivent à la rescousse.Même s'ils ne savent pas nager, ils sautent dans l\u2019eau Suite à

Ferronnerie, Plomberie et Chauffage.En cours de route, deux de ses fils, Conrad et Edmond, choisissent de se joindre à l'entreprise familiale.- Peu après le décès de Romain Priest, son fils Edmond reprend les rênes de l\u2019entreprise et lui donne une nouvelle raison sociale: Edmond Priest -

poids, à un peu plus de deux ans des Jeux olympiques d\u2019été d\u2019Athènes.Sa performance obtenue lors des récents championnats mondiaux d\u2019haltérophilie en Turquie l\u2019a finalement convaincu de passer de la classe des 85kg à celle des 94 kilos.Après avoir dû perdre 2,9 kilos une vingtaine d\u2019heures avant de s\u2019exécuter, le jeune homme a pris le quinzième rang au classement cumulatif.L'athlète de Sainte-Barbe, que les médias régionaux ont rencontré lors de la conférence de presse pour le lancement régional de l'Opération Nez Rouge mercredi soir dernier, s\u2019est dit relativement satisfait de son rendement même s\u2019il ne semblait être à son meilleur.«Physiquement et mentalement, je me sentais bien mais j'ai dû me faire maigrir avant la compétition, ce qui ne m'a pas aidé.Il y aussi les effets du décalage horaire qui n'ont pas quitté mon métabolisme mais je ne pense pas que ce soit le facteur le plus importants, a-t-il confié.Mais sa prestation l'a finalement amené à prendre une décision de taille: celle d'obtenir pour une catégorie supérieure de poids, lui qui fera son entrée au niveau sé- nior à la fin de la présente année.Mais pour y arriver, il entend y aller graduellement.Pesant présentement 87,5 kg, il entend faire osciller l'aiguille de la balance à 91 kg d'ici mai prochain, au moment des championnats canadiens sénior d\u2019haltérophilie qui auront lieu à Valleyfield.Julien Galipeau estime qu'en évoluant chez les 94 kg et en gagnant du poids, il sera en mesure d'atteindre de nouveaux sommets à la barre.«Au cours de la prochaine année, je pense être capable de soulever entre 335 et 340 kilos au combiné», estime celui qui étudie en diététique au collège Montmorency à Laval.CONSTRUCTION JEAN LATREILLE

bears for children in New ee.x Ciy toni the September 11 terrorist attack was a special project sug- at the October 3 meeting of the Hemmingford Women\u2019s Institute.Meeting at Jean Norman\u2019s home, the group decided to postpone a decision on this idea until the next meeting.Guest speaker at the afternoon session was Gleaner editor Judith Taylor, who gave a brief history of the 137-year-old community paper, which she first joined in 1973.Over the years, there have been many changes as the bilingual newspaper has become smaller, and production methods have changed from \u201chands-on\u201d to computerized technology.\u201cSometimes I do miss the old-fashioned way of assembling the pages with scissors and glue,\u201d she said.Smaller staff Although the Gleaner staff is smaller than it used to be, the use of fax machines and e-mail has helped speed up the technical aspect of news-gathering.But it\u2019s still necessary to get out on the roads and hunt Some Hemmingford W1 members visit after the business meeting at Jean Norman's home.(Photo: JT) down stories in the large territory the paper serves.The news department is made up of Taylor plus Fre French-language journalist Patrice La A few decades ago, the paper contained mostly social notes from various communities, but now, with more women out working, there are fewer social events and the paper tries to produce more stories of general interest.Trip to Russia to adopt daughter topic at WI meeting in Dewittville Highlight of the October meeting of the Dewittville Women's Institute was Brenda Larocque\u2019s description of her trip to Russia.She showed slides of Belarus, where she and her husband Herb travelled to adopt a litle girl who had spent several summers with the family as part of the Chernobyl Children\u2019s summer holiday project.After overcoming many obstacles with the help of an advisor and interpreter, they were able to bring home their new daughter, who is now a student in Six-Plus at Orms- town Elementary School.At the same meeting, members were delighted to present 25-year membership pins to Shirley Stark and Carolyn Cameron.Longtime secretary and archivist Jean Martin will be sorely missed by the group, but members will cherish her scrapbooks as a wonderful reminder of all her work.Bus trip Other features of a busy fall included a September bus tour to the Magic Gardens at Montreal's Old Port.As well as viewing the displays, the group learned how the master-gardeners produced it.The afternoon was spent discovering the nooks and crannies of the Old Port.The group's September meeting took place the day after the September 11 disaster in New York City.Many members said how fortunate they felt to be living here.Special activity of the day was viewing the new Chateauguay Valley video, \u201cChildren > \u201cPaintings, ve ; Sketches & Prints Custom framing of the Soil\u201d; many members bought copies to send as gifts In August, the group helped the County Women's Institute set up great display of crafts for Huntingdon Fair.As well, members donated breads to the Lucky Harvest project for their benefit Polo Day.(MR/[T) Because The Gleaner is a rivately-ow- ned business, it relies on selling n pers, subscriptions and paid advertisements for its economic survival.The size of the newspaper each week nds on the amount of advertising sold, which will make up about half of each issue.So sometimes a non-urgent news article has to wait a week or two to get published.After a question period, Taylor was thanked by Anne Robertson.Other business Reports indicated the recent County Card Party was a great success, with 33 tables filled; members had enjoyed a visit to the Butterfly Museum where they saw up to 400 varieties of butterflies and moths.There are 14 aprons left over from the yard sale.A total of 15 puppets made by Evelyne Davis were handed in to the hos- pital.Answer to today's puzzie G |A ||P |S A
