RAK Pack adopts family for ChristmasInspired by creat-ing Random Acts of Kindness, a group of students from Haig School look for opportun-ities to help out others in their community.

Right before Christmas, the RAK Pack had a big project to complete. They had collected food and gift donations for an adopted family from the Salvation Army program.

We got a family, then we donated presents and food to that family, said Mitchell Cherpin, one of the RAK Pack students.

It was a lot of fun. We got to go shopping and pick out items for both the mom and her son, said Maddie Sheasby, another member of the RAK Pack.

The RAK Pack mem-bers meet weekly at Haig School during one of their lunch periods, where they discuss ideas for projects in the community.

This group is monitored by a couple of staff mem-bers from Haig School. It has been a popular extra-curricular activity at the school for a few years now.

For the Christmas sea-son, the RAK Pack had decided to adopt one of the many families from the Salvation Army program.

To help raise funds for their project, the RAK Pack members sold heart-shaped cards to staff and students. Everyone who donated were able to put

their name on one of these heart-shaped cards, which were then displayed in the Haig School hallway.

It was important for us to help a family so they could spend time together and have a happy Christ-mas like everyone else would, said Cherpin.

The RAK Pack raised roughly $500, which they used as a budget to pur-chase gifts and food.

We made sure to buy meat, milk, eggs, and food items that would be good to have for breakfast, or for Christmas, noted Cherpin.

Since the RAK Pack is quite large, students were divided into groups to go on their shopping trips. All shopping trips were super-vised by teachers, who kept track of receipts and the final budget spent.

The students also had a fun time having a little show and tell with their whole group, providing information on what was purchased for their family.

The best thing about being in the RAK Pack is getting to help other people, said Cherpin. We make people feel happy.

He added that the adopt-ing a family was also a great inspiration to other students and staff who dont attend Haig School.

The RAK Pack is also a great place to make new friends, added Sheasby. We have a lot of fun dur-ing our meetings.

Gratitude is in seasonSome hae meat and

canna eat, And some wad eat that want it; But we hae meat, and we can eat, Sae let the Lord be thankit. -- The Scots Selkirk Grace.

The previous saying is a simple prayer from a simpler time, intended to give thanks to a higher power for meeting simple desires. Its a notion I especially like to remember at Christmas, the season when we may overindulge in food and drink and gift-giving and sentimentality and emotion. If were not giving, were receiving and if were doing neither we often feel deprived. Christmas and the holiday season can be a tough time for people with little and equally difficult for people with a lot if the expectations are very high.

I have three wishes for this Christmas: A little moderation of the expectations, a little moderation of the indulgences, a little moderation of the emotions.

The residents of this part of the province are among the most fortunate in the world. Despite some economic difficulties in some corners, we are relatively prosperous and very peaceful. For the most part, we have good food, warm homes, family, friends and acquaintances. We are out of the line of fire when it comes to the violence and warfare experienced in so many other parts of the world. We even have enjoyed an incredible period of good weather this fall. It has been a very good year. Let us focus on giving, especially to those with challenges, and being good neighbours, rather than receiving.

During this joyful season, members of the Sun Country Regional Health Authority, the Leadership Team, Staff and Physicians of Sun Country Health Region send you the warmest wishes for this festive season and all the best as we approach the New Year.

Visiting the Nativity sceneSonny the donkey gets some affection as families pay a visit to the live Nativity scene put on by the Weyburn Free Methodist Church. The scene included live animals and children dressed as the characters involved in the First Christmas story, and was staged in conjunction with the Kinsmens annual Twinkle Tour, which drove by the church to see the Nativity scene.

RURAL SCHOOLS ARE VIABLESchools are expected to meet enrolment thresholds set by the provincial government; which has made it

dif cult for rural schools who are placed under review and must ght to not get closed

Sabrina Kraft [email protected]

A delegation from Pangman School attended the Southeast Cornerstone Public School Board monthly meeting on Thursday, where commun-ity members listed reasons why they felt it was import-ant for Cornerstone to keep operating the school.

Pangman School was one of two schools placed into the review process by Cornerstone, a process they are legislated by the Ministry of Education to perform every year.

There are many criteria that will be considered by Cornerstone board members during the review pro-cess, but one of the main reasons for placing a school in review is when it falls below the enrolment thresh-olds set by the provincial government.

It is very challenging for communities since many rural schools are required to meet a minimum provin-cial standard for enrollment, when each school has its own situation and its own story.

There is already so much mandated by the provin-cial government: the date that school starts each year, the minimum amount of instructional hours during the school year, and of course the Outcome-Based Re-porting Scale.

But there are still lots of differences between school divisions on how they establish their school year.

At least here in the Weyburn area, Holy Family Roman Catholic Separate School Division and Corner-stone work together to create a shared calendar, so that there are no more different Professional Development

dates when it comes to local schools.There is so much more to the rural school story

than their enrollment numbers. It is fortunate that the Cornerstone board is going to look at all the differ-ent criteria, that they are going to consider the facility itself, the staff, the students and different community aspects of the school.

We must remember that for many rural commun-ities, their school is the heart that helps promote growth and prosperity for business and local organiza-tions. Many communities start to have their residents leave when there is no longer a school available.

Of course, we want to ensure there is plenty of learning opportunities for our students. Plus, we want to ensure there is opportunities for arts, culture, sports and music in their schools.

The important thing to consider is that if a school is constantly placed under review year after year it is going to struggle attracting more families. It will be a challenge to increase enrollment when there is a threat of a possible school closure.

We need to look at our rural schools in a much dif-ferent way. While some guidelines are important to keep in mind, there should be two different enrollment numbers based on the size of the community itself.

When we drive people away from the rural schools, then it becomes an overcrowding situation for the schools in Weyburn itself. That is not a good situation either for those families.

The important thing is to ensure that education is available to our youth after all they are our future and deserve to be encouraged.

I recently attended the annual per-formance of Carols by Candlelight, an occasion filled with glorious music and a display of the talent of our residents. Not only was this the 37th performance in our community, for me its the one event that kicks off the season, partly because of the memories it evokes.

I clearly remember the first Carols by Candlelight I attended in 2003 because I consider it redemptive. Wed moved three months earlier, a move that I found difficult, filled with mixed emotions.

Although I was thrilled to be near our family again, it was heart-wrenching to leave the city, the people and the church Id learned to love and lean on.

That year I attended the Saturday afternoon matinee, simply because our then youngest granddaughter sang in a junior choir. First I was captivated, then slowly but surely convinced that I could learn to live here and love it.

Music, embedded in the DNA of the

place I now call home, comforted and called me.

Its twelve years since I first sat mes-merized by the quality and vibrancy of the music and I havent missed a per-formance since. As they have for decades boys, girls, men and women sang their hearts out. Accompanied by a world re-nowned organist, they entered singing, candlelight spilling everywhere.

It was an aged gentleman sitting at the next table, however, who demonstrated to me the power of the music and of rem-iniscence. Throughout much of the two hour performance, his frail hands beat out the rhythm of classical masterpieces; at strategic times he gently but firmly con-ducted from his chair and, occasionally, hummed along.

Such powerful music. So many mem-ories. So much music in his soul.

In a world where sadness often domin-ates Christmas, lets always make melody in our hearts to the Lord!

Dear EllenI just moved in with my

boyfriend and he has two children of his own and I have three. We are trying to live as one big family but its a rough adjustment and a couple of the kids fight a

lot. I find myself treating his kids different than mine and that I cant discipline without getting into a fight with his kids.

Im not sure if this is going to work out or if its worth the stress. What can I

do? Signed Madeline.Dear Madeline

Blended family issues take time, effort and pa-tience. It may be helpful to have a family meeting, giv-ing everyone a voice and equal opportunity to speak their mind, while actively listening and considering each persons feelings as valid and true for each in-dividual. Family meetings need structure and lead-ers to guide but everyone should be respected in or-der to find positive goals that will work for all people involved.

Empowering each per-son and supporting their goals for change, while respecting others in the family, is important to find

common ground. It may be difficult to assert your-self as the authority as the kids may not see you as their mom. Talking to the kids about the situation, your intent, your role and their roles in the home may bring the opportunity to work with the kids so that everyones needs are properly met.

Working with as op-posed to doing things to or for children is a meth-od of empowerment while strengthening your bond and maintaining your pos-ition as a leader to be re-spected in the group, while building a sense of self-discipline and inner control for the kids.

Dear EllenMy siblings and I are all

adults but they try to tell me what to do all the time. That has always been kind of our relationship but now that Im older I want to get free of that and do my own thing but I still want to keep a good relationship with them. I struggle with some confidence issues and I have a hard time telling them how I feel because I dont want to hurt their feelings. Signed Monica.Dear Monica

Our past can be, at times, challenging to break free of, but I must com-mend you on making the first step towards positive change for yourself and for your siblings. Being assert-

ive and setting boundaries with those we love, who are important people in our lives, is integral to bet-tering our relationships.

It is valid to be aware of how others feel but its im-portant to be true to your-self and respectful of your needs. If you assert your needs and feelings to others in a way that respects and values them, trust yourself and be proud of yourself, in that you did the right thing.

Opening up the dia-logue to improve the bond between you and your sib-lings can allow for more independence, better com-munication and under-standing of each other. We can be our best to others when we good to ourselves.

My name is Bailee Bourassa from Weyburn and I play for the Weyburn Gold Wings. We have been busy in the months of November and December. The first week in December we were busy getting our float ready for the Weyburn Parade of Lights. We put a lot of hard work into the making of our float and it turned out awesome. We would like to thank Swayzes for letting us team up with them this year for the parade.

The weekend of December 5 and 6 we hosted the Prince Albert Bears at Crescent Point Place. We lost to the Bears in a shootout 3-2 in the first game. The game was rough and intense. The Bears are always a good match up when we play them. The following day we lost again 5-2 but played well, just had trouble putting the puck in the net. Our focus during these games was to play solid defense since the Bears have a young and fast team.

This past week we participated in the Mandi Schwartz Tournament hosted in Notre Dame. The tournament ran from December 10 to 13. Dur-ing the first game, we played the Red Deer Chiefs and defeated them 3-1. We played again against the Notre Dame JWHL hounds and lost 4-1. The last game of our round robin was against OHA (Okanagan Hockey Acad-emy) and lost 5-1. We ended up finishing third place in our pool.

The next day we played the Swift Current Wildcats and won 3-1, it was a very good game. Since we won that game we went on to play Shaftes-bury Titans, battling for ninth place in the tournament. This game was dirty and rough but we pulled through and won the game 3-2. Our record for the tournament was three wins and two losses. Overall we played well as a team and had to overcome some injuries and play with a short bench.

After the tournament in Notre Dame our coach gave us December 14 off to rest up. The remainder of the week we will be preparing for our game against Melville on Saturday, December 19, which is the last game before our Christmas Break. The girls are excited to have Christmas off to relax and spend time with their families. The Christmas break from school is from December 18 to January 3. Our next home game is not until January 23 when we host Melville.

On behalf of the Gold Wings we would like to wish everyone a safe and Merry Christmas.

Diary from the IceWritten by Bailee Bourassa of the Southern Range Gold Wings

In case you are befuddled by the title, its popular shorthand for the expres-sion, haters gonna hate. It means that narrow-minded, intolerant, bigoted people are hard-wired that way, and nothing is going to change them. Ironic-ally, anti-hatred propagators are often implicated by their own slogans. While professing to be open-minded, tolerant and unbiased they habitually ignore or malign opinions contrary to their own.

If Jesus walked this earth today, I have no doubt that he would make the haters list. He exposed sin in outwardly righteous people (Matthew 5), and laid out Gods humanly unattainable standard of righteousness: You therefore must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect (Matthew 5:41, ESV).

He had the audacity to claim that the only way to escape Gods judgment for sin was to be born again (John 3:3) through faith in his substitutionary death on the cross (John 3:14-20). Oh, and he claimed that he could say all these things because he was God (John 8:58)! In so doing he offended liberal and conservative alike, to the extent that leaders of the Pharisees, the Sadducees, the Herodians, the Zealots and the Romans joined forces to crucify him.

Jesus implicated the whole human race (the world) of sin against Almighty God. What kind of press would that get him in our society? Jesus knew what was inside peoples hearts and he wasnt impressed (John 2:25). No political philosophy, grassroots movement or awareness campaign could remedy the situation. The solution he offered was eternal life, forgiveness of sin and peace with God through faith in his death, burial and resurrection. It wasnt a matter of people proving themselves morally superior others; it was a matter of each person seeing themselves as hopelessly lost, apart from Christs intervention.

Jesus said to his disciples, If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you. If you were of the world, the world would love you as its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you (John 15:18, ESV).

He wasnt telling them to go out and do hateful things; he was telling them that the loving act of proclaiming eternal life and forgiveness of sin in Jesus name would ensure the worlds hatred.

We are all haters by nature. We are so hateful that we cant even see the hatred in our own hearts. But God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life (John 3:16, ESV). If you believe that, dont be surprised if people hate you. Just keep loving them enough to tell them the truth.

Browns Social House opens doors in WeyburnCo-owner Kelly Burns, chef Jeff Hoffman, co-owner Rob Burns and manager Andrew Arksey prepare for the grand opening of the new Browns Social House restaurant in Weyburn. The 110-seat restaurant is located next to the Microtel Hotel, and features an open design and a varied menu, ranging from ginger beef to two-handed burgers, to Tahitian Tuna, steak sandwiches, pizza, or shrimp and chicken Pad Thai. The Weyburn restaurant is the sixth in Saskatchewan owned by the Burns brothers, who hail from Regina where two Browns Social Houses are located.


Congratulations!

Dear Reena,Purple candle wax dripped onto my beige synthetic fiber carpet which has a low nap. What should I do? I have scraped off as much of the wax as I can and await your suggestion as to further treatment. Thank you, Irene.Dear Irene,

What you need to do is place a single-layered brown paper bag over the wax and using a warm iron, press the area to lift the wax, be careful not to scorch the carpet. Move the bag around so you dont push wax further into the carpet. When the wax is a distant memory, take Head and Shoulders Dandruff shampoo and water and blot it over the area to clean the rest of the mess (test on an in-conspicuous area first). Rinse with water and blot.Hi Reena,

After many years of using my kitchen sink at our cottage/home, for washing paint brushes and trays etc. I have lots of scratches on the rim and all over.

It is a brushed stainless look, is there some way that I can safely get rid of the scratches? Thanks for any help and for all the good tips I get from read-ing your column. Keep up the good work! Pat.Hi Pat,

There are multiple commercia l products available at home hard-ware stores designed to remove scratches on stainless steel, including all appliances, even the kitchen sink! Or buff out scratches yourself; using a sand pad for intense scratches or a scuff pad (number one for heavier scratches) or 000 for finer scratches.

Spray the stainless steel with 50/50 white vinegar and water. Buff out scratches with the pad. Make sure to use long, even strokes and pull the pad along the grain. Using short strokes will result in a patchy finish. Polish with a soft cloth.Hi Reena,

This is a two part ques-tion: I have a frying pan with a dimpled non-stick surface which is used mostly for weekend bacon and eggs breakfasts.

What is the best way of cleaning these pans? I have been running hot water into the pan and scrubbing with paper tow-els so as not to remove the seasoning. Is there an easier and more effective way to clean?

My other question concerns the build-up of baked-on food on the out-side of the pan. What can I use to remove this mess? Plastic scouring pads have no effect. Even putting the pan through the dish-washers pots and pans cycle doesnt budge it in the least! Thanks, Mi-chael.Dear Michael,

An easy and very ef-fective technique for cleaning the interior side of non-stick frying pans is to place them in the dish-

washer. The bleach and liquid used to make dish-washer detergent cleans the pan interior, and zaps lingering odors, which tend to remain in the pan.

Option 2: Boil 1 tbsp. baking soda and 2 cups vinegar for 3 minutes. When pan is cool enough to touch; scrub with green scrubby pad. In order to clean the outside of a fry-ing pan, the easiest solu-tion is to ventilate and apply oven cleaner.

The down side to oven cleaner is that this method can actually void the war-ranty on your pan. An-other option is to scrub the outside of the pan with Barkeepers Friend and a damp non-scratch abra-sive pad. Leave for a few hours and scrub well.Dear Reena,

Is it possible to renew the look of my cutlery? Either the dishwasher, or our water which has a high rust content, or both,

have it looking pretty bad. Donna.Dear Donna,

In commercial settings; it is very common to toss cutlery into a sink of plain old white vinegar, let soak and polish with a cloth. Or cut a potato in half and sprinkle it with powdered laundry detergent, rub onto spots, rinse and dry.

Doing this gets rid of water and rust spots. Bar Keepers Friend is another effective option. To make

your own silver or stainless steel cleaner: Place crum-pled aluminum foil in a pan or plastic bucket. Dissolve one quarter cup washing soda in enough hot water to cover the cutlery. Place cut-lery on foil and let stand for 5 mins. until the stains are gone. Rinse and polish dry. Dear Reena,

How can I get a strong moldy smell out of cloth-ing? Marilyn.Dear Marilyn,

Soak washable clothes

in either white vinegar (the smell of vinegar will evap-orate), or 1 cup washing soda and 10 cups water or 1 cup borax and 10 cups water. Leave for 30 min-utes and wash as usual.

Make sure that you pour the entire contents of whichever product you choose into the washing machine. Doing so will not only freshen fabrics; but will also clean out the hoses in your washing machine.

Concerns about e-cigarettes risksElectronic cigarettes are

often thought to be safer than cigarettes because they dont produce smoke or contain the tar and chemical of tobacco.

But a new study is once again raising questions about the safety of vaping e-cigarettes. Researchers at Penn State College of Medicine says they have found that electronic ciga-rettes produce free rad-icals, which are molecules that cause cell damage and can lead to cancer.

In cigarette smoke, free radicals are the mol-ecules that cause the most oxidative damage. They are a leading culprit in smoking-related cancer, cardiovascular disease, skin aging, and chronic obstructive pulmonary dis-ease, or COPD.

The researchers found

that e-cigarettes produce levels of free radicals that are about 1,000 to 100 times lower than in regular cigarettes.

But the levels are still in the range of what might be seen in the air of a heavily air-polluted area.

Previous studies have found aldehydes in e-ciga-rette vapour, which are compounds that can cause oxidative stress and cell damage. A study published earlier this year in the New England Journal of Medi-cine, for example, found e-cigs produce high levels of formaldehyde, which is a known carcinogen.

This is the first study that demonstrates the fact that we have these highly reactive agents in e-ciga-rette aerosols, said Prof. John P. Richie Jr., who teaches public health sci-

ences and pharmacology at Penn State.

He added that theres a perception that e-cigarettes are healthier than regular cigarettes, but his teams findings suggest the de-vices may not be free from harm.

While e-cigarette va-pour does not contain many of the toxic substances that are known to be present in cigarette smoke, its still important for us to figure out and to minimize the po-tential dangers that are as-sociated with e-cigarettes, he said in a statement.

He said his team is cur-rently conducting studies to measure the amount of free radicals in e-cigarette aerosols and to identify their chemical structures. That will help us interpret the data better to know how dangerous they are.

HELP is ready for spring shelterbelt tree planting

HELP International is going into its third year of their shelterbelt program, with some 600,000 seed-lings of shelterbelt var-ieties ready for planting in the spring of 2016.

HELP took over the governments shelterbelt tree program two years ago, as they ran the former PFRA tree farm at Indian Head, providing trees for landowners across the prai-ries in 2014 and 2015.

T h e o rg a n i z a t i o n bought a new 160-acre par-cel west of Weyburn, and they have been working to develop the land by con-structing plots, roadways and a water reservoir.

All of the trees that HELP is producing are now container roots, which is a change from the bare root system used at the In-dian Head tree farm. The seedlings, measuring 12 to 30 inches, have a solid plug of soil on the root.

According to executive director Rodney Sidloski, this innovation allows the seedlings to be shipped and planted while dormant or in full leaf, unlike with seedlings with bare roots, and there has been little to no transplant setback.

HELP has kept our promise that the tree cost of $1.50 per regular seed-ling for shelterbelt quanti-ties of 300 or more trees will not see any increase now or in the future. He also pointed out that any order of 50 trees or more is considered a shelterbelt or environmental program.

If a town or cluster of neighbours combine to plant 4,000 meters or more of tree lines, they can apply for HELP assisted planting where HELP brings per-sonnel, trees, machinery and materials to plant trees, lay plastic mulch and in-stall grass for low mainten-ance tree planting.

Normal moisture levels for winterThe southeast Saskatch-

ewan area has average mois-ture levels according to the conditions at freeze-up as re-ported by the Water Security Agency. The report summar-izes the water supply condi-tions during the late fall and early winter period, to provide a better understanding of the conditions on the ground in preparation for spring runoff in 2016. The majority of the province has normal mois-ture conditions for this time of year, but some areas in eastern Saskatchewan have a higher

than normal amount of mois-ture on the landscape going into winter.

While spring and early summer precipitation was well below normal across much of the province, above-normal late summer and fall precipitation resulted in near normal precipitation accumu-lations across most of Sas-katchewan between April 1 and Oct. 31, 2015.

Topsoil moisture condi-tions at the end of October were generally described as adequate across the grain-

belt with the exception of an area in the northeast and a few pockets in east-central areas.

Precipitation received in the first three weeks of Nov-ember has resulted in addi-tional areas with surplus soil moisture conditions. Long range forecasts for this win-ter are suggesting below nor-mal precipitation. Overall, the Water Security Agencys network of groundwater ob-servation wells have shown an overall increase in ground-water levels since 2010 throughout the province.

Book Review:

Northern Trader Northern Trader: The Last Days of the Fur Trade is written by H. S. M. Kemp. It is published by University of Regina Press. This review is writ-ten by Kris Brandhagen.

Originally published in the 1950s, Northern Trader: The Last Days of the Fur Trade by H.S.M. Kemp is a memoir that be-gins in 1908 with Harold Kemp in his teens making the trip to Lac La Ronge to ask for a job with the Hud-son Bay Company.

With romantic thoughts in his mind about what it might be like to be a com-pany man, he encountered frozen lakes that made ca-noe travel out of the ques-tion, necessitating a hard suffering walking trip.

Unaccustomed to moc-casins and snowshoes, under advisement of his native guide, he rubbed bacon grease on his feet every night, and finally reverted back to his patent leather shoes in favor of their hard soles. To travel the northern elements, with cracked feet, in search of a job seems surprising, but thats how Kemp did it.

Northern Trader is writ-ten in a very accessible style by a white Prince Al-bert man originally from England. Through his stor-ies the reader learns that he is no ordinary company man in that he prefers to share the load, adapt to the customs of northern culture, socialize with na-tives, and speak the Cree language, which he writes rather poetically about.

The tone of the book is conversational, likely cultivated by exchanging stories verbally with those who came to the trading post or passed along the way. Each chapter is made

up of many stories about individuals, and filled with travel accounts by canoe or dog team, which were easy or difficult based on the whimsy of the weather.

An active and forward thinking man, he often made trips to bring supplies to the trappers and pick up their furs as opposed to waiting at the post.

The voice of the book is earnest. Kemp tries to be fair by including stor-ies that show not only the positive but also negative, albeit usually humorous, aspects of character.

I suspect that he wit-nessed some level of do-mestic atrocity during his sixteen years (off and on) in the north, but in keeping with the attitude of the fif-ties, he does not expound upon the more sordid family, school, or religion-based details. It is import-ant to keep in mind the potentially idealized view-point of the writer, the time period in which the book was originally authored, and Kemps particular gen-erous outlook. As always, any memoir is but a version of the truth, and this is a beautiful version.

Kemp and his wife be-came so close with the people of Stanley, where Kemp manned the Re-villon trading post, the French competition of HBC that Kemps account of their visit after twenty years away brought tears to my eyes. I became so thoroughly engrossed in this book, that it nearly hurt to put it down when I reached the end. This book is that good. Kemps ver-sion of the tough, challen-ging nature of northern life during that time is compas-sionate, and like the back cover states, romantic.

Mustangs to host Arcola before Christmas break

The Midale Mustangs will have a home game against Arcola tonight, De-cember 18, before heading into their Christmas break.

During a recent away game in Oxbow, the Mus-tangs claimed a 3-2 shoot-out win. Micah Anderson and Josiah Anderson each scored during regular time.

Garrett Sherlock, Brad Tomiski and Josh Gustaf-son were the shooters dur-ing the shootout.

Right now, after losing four out of six regular sea-son games, the Mustangs are at the bottom of the Big Six Hockey League.

However, the Mustangs do have several games in hand, as most of the other teams have either played seven or eight games.

On Wednesday, the Mustangs had a home game against Oxbow. De-tails were not available by publication deadlines.

The Mustangs started their season with a 3-2 vic-tory over Bienfait on Nov. 7. Goals for Midale were scored by Steven Linden-bach, Garrett Sherlock and Logan Martinson.

Then in repeat action against Bienfait during a game on Nov. 18, the Mustangs lost 4-3. Brad Tomiski, Tyler Hoium and Matt Geske all scored goals for Midale.

During an away game in Redvers on Nov. 20, the Mustangs lost 5-2. Garrett Sherlock and Brad Tomiski each scored goals.

In their most recent

game, held in Carnduff on Dec. 5, the Mustangs dropped a 6-2 decision.

Josh Gustafson and Garrett Sherlock each scored for the Mustangs.

The Mustangs were in Arcola on Dec. 8, where they lost 9-3. Scoring for Midale was Micah Ander-son, Garrett Sherlock and Steven Lindenbach.

Top scorers for Midale right now are Garrett Sher-lock with four goals and three assists in six games, and Micah Anderson who has two goals and three as-sists in five games.

Reaching for the puckRed Wings player Tyran Brown, No. 10, reaches far along with a player from the Kin-dersley Klippers to-wards the puck, during first-period action in their SJHL game. The Red Wings made it close, tying the game with seconds left, but then lost the game in the shootout after-wards by 5-4.

Rams sign two Weyburn athletesTwo more Weyburn

athletes will be continu-ing their football careers at the university level, after Adair Borys and Scott Jones from the Weyburn Comp Eagles signed a CIS Letter of Intent with the Univer-sity of Regina Rams.

Adair Borys was a two-way starter for the Comp Eagles during this past season, includ-ing at cornerback on the defensive side of the ball and as a slotback on the offensive side.

He finished tied for the Moose Jaw High School Football League lead with four inter-ceptions in six regular season games for the Eagles and will come into the Rams program as a defensive back.

Adair might not seem like the biggest guy in the world, but hes a strong farm kid and when you watch

his film you see people jolt when he hits them, said Mike Gibson, head coach of the Rams.

He was one of the best in his league at his position and hes go-ing to have a very good chance to come in here and show what he can do very quickly.

Scott Jones was also a two-way starter for the Weyburn Eagles in 2015, starting on the offensive line and at linebacker while also handling long snap-ping duties. Jones is the younger brother of former Rams offensive lineman Brett Jones and at five-foot 10-inches and 185 pounds, he is being recruited to the Rams as a fullback.

Scotts obviously got great bloodlines, but what youve got to love about him is that hes al-ready working out con-sistently with Brett in

the weight room so he certainly knows what to expect in terms of work ethic to succeed at this level, said Gibson. He might have been out-sized at the positions he played at last year, but his Weyburn coaches told me he was never outmatched.

The Rams have now announced nine players in the 2016 recruiting class, six of which hail from Regina or the im-mediate vicinity.

Many former local athletes have played with the University of Rams. Both Brendon LaBatte of the Sas-katchewan Roughriders and Brett Jones, who is on the reserve/injured list with the New York Giants, had played with the Rams.

Also, during this past season, the Rams roster included Kyle Paterson and Nathan Cugnet.

Discussions on environment at the Town and Country meeting

The Town and Country Women met on Nov. 9 at the home of Kathryn Groshong and had a program on the en-vironment.

There were 10 members present, which is perfect at-tendance for the club.

The club ode was sung to open the meeting, ac-companied on the piano by Kathryn Groshong.

President Margaret Luk-ey welcomed the ladies and gave some thoughts about Remembrance Day, and great sacrifices by the men and women who fought in wartime. The thought for the day was, All of us have the responsibility to guarantee a safe environment for our children and their children.

Secretary Kathryn Gro-shong read the minutes, and treasurer Edith Jacobs pre-sented the financial report. The club sent $100 to sup-port the United Way Com-munithon effort in Weyburn.

The lap robe project for nursing homes is underway. The size of the lap robes is approximately 30 by 36 inches, and can be knit, cro-cheted or made of fleece. Any help is appreciated.

Vice-president Ruth Prost is looking for ideas for next summers outing, and perhaps a short trip to Ogema.

Clara Bell showed four little girls dresses and three jumpers that she had sewn for project carried on by the Weyburn Free Methodist Church, for the Operation Christmas Child boxes. The boxes will be sent overseas

to make the children happy.The roll call was for

members to state what prod-ucts they have used and were recycled.

The following answers came from the members: one member uses paper towels and serviettes from recycled paper; one crushes eggshells and spreads them on garden rows, to provide calcium and to discourage cutworms and pests.

Another member cuts up used envelopes, and uses these for shopping lists; one uses cardboard milk con-tainers for freezing food; one uses margarine con-tainers for storing food; one bought a purse made from recycled materials that looks like leather; one bought re-cycled paper plates; another member has outside steps made from recycled plastic; and a member recently wore a pink pillbox hat from the 1960s with matching scarf and gloves, which was about 50 years old.

One member said she picks up pop cans and re-cyclables, and gives them to children so they can collect a little money; and a member uses recycled materials in her sewing.

The program for the afternoon was on the en-vironment, and was re-searched and presented by the convenor, Margaret Luk-ey. She said she looked for a way the community and sur-rounding area is working to make the environment better and safer.

The oil fields were my

first thought, as we are sur-rounded by them. Have you noticed there are no oil flares coming from the oil fields lately, and we are not getting that terrible odour anymore? There is a reason, she said, explaining that on July 1 a government directive came into effect to encourage and support the capture of asso-ciated gases produced by the oil wells. SaskEnergy and TransGas are working with the oil and gas companies to develop a plan to reduce emissions from oil and gas production activities. There is also a company east of Weyburn who looks after waste management around oil well sites.

University of Saskatch-ewan students are also working on ways to develop environmental reduction of gas and oil from the soil by deep irrigation into the soil of a solution, which they have purchased at the uni-versity.

Lukey also contacted two local restaurants, Tim Hortons and KFC, about their waste management program.

She was told Tim Hor-tons have no oils in their cooking, and their dough-nuts are cooked instead of frying them in oil. The gar-bage and wastes are handled through SARCAN.

Regarding KFC, she said they have a holding tank to collect their used cooking oil and a truck comes from Edmonton to dispose of it. Their quick cooking method of preparing the food means

less oil is absorbed in the cooking.

Lukey then quoted from an article in Weyburn This Week about the province moving forward with multi-material recycling.

The launch of this recyc-ling initiative will preserve local landfills and encourage more communities to imple-ment recycling programs, said the story. The multi-material recycling program (MMRP) is a cost-shared in-itiative between businesses and municipalities that will provide funding for the col-lection of recyclable house-hold materials.

Lukey also had an article entitled, Pick your poison wisely by Geoff Lee, which points out the harm to mar-ine life, mammals and birds by an oil spill, and the dam-ages following forest fires to human life and health, destroying natural resour-ces and property, and losing wood resources for at least 60 years.

Closer to home, in an article by Delilah Jahn Thue in Southern Life, spoke of small space gardening with a raised bed where succes-sion planting could be tried, with the added bonus of be-ing easier on the back.

Margaret ended the pro-gram by speaking about Blue Earth recycling depot in Weyburn, which does a tremendous job in this area. A lunch was served after the meeting by the host-ess, Kathryn Groshong, and Happy Birthday was sung to Vie Flaten.

Little elves seeking booksThomas Olson and Art Rara look for some good books, during a Minion Book Bag session at Haig School for the Grade 3 class. The students were looking for books in their reading levels, which they would be able to have fun reading.
