Page 2, News, Wednesday, November 16 » 1988 Inside we stay ,;warm and snug By: Helene Ballard Time for another wee chat, I hope no one was blown away dur- ing our first "winter storm", that wind sure blew with gusto, some times it felt like we would have the home blown away, but I guess its still in good shape and its the residents who are "frail". Our card playing friends were in on the 8th to play bridge much to the delight of the residents, our thanks to our friends for their time. I was very sorry last week - Pathfinder Notes Pathfinders are girls age 12 to 15 that belong to the Girl Guides of Canada. This past week a candle-light enrollment ceremony was held for-Margaret Herculson and Kim O'quinn. A taste of Mexico featuring tacos and nachos completed the meeting. Recent projects include fashion shows of current styles important to the teenage girl and the use of accessories. when Greg Huneault and his wife came to see me to say "Goodbye" I have heard so many folks saying what a good job he was doing also that he took very good photos, we could see the faces very well. Too bad some people don't know when they have a good man for the job. I am sure many of our readers will wish Greg & Cathy "Good Luck" I know I do. At this time I would like to say a word to Alice Scott in regards to her article in last weeks "Pet Talk". She expressed her opinion in regards to "Pit Bulls". Maybe Molinski - Mrs. Emma Molinski of Rossport passed away in hospital on November 6, 1988. She was a seperate school teacher at Holy Angels School in Schreiber. Survived by sons Lorne and Michael, brother Ed Spiess of Ignace. Predeceased by her husband Lorne. Memorial services were held on Saturday at 11 a.m. from St. Andrews United Church, Schreiber. If friends desire memorials to the Canadian Cancer Society would be appreciated.

It's in their genes and there- fore should be banned. One does not need a university education to know that they are not the kind of a dog for people, any one with common sense should know that. I sometimes wonder what kind of a person would want one for a pet. I bet other folks in town did not like her comment: " Too many people who are not qualified or educated write about Pit Bulls." Since Mrs. Scott gave her opin- ion I have given mine, "Freedom of the Press", and I still say they are dangerous and should be banned---case closed. Things are quiet at Birchwood, the weather has not been too good for daily walks outside so we stay in warm and snug. Until next week this wee joke Minister to parishioner: "You look like Helen Green. Parishioner to minister: look like Hell in black. Au Revoir! "You The Whales are free! Mary Hubelit October is famous for more than Hallowe'en - after Fall and before Winter, it can be our most turbulent month weather-wise. A little research to my weather book, back to 1958, confirms this. To be con- cise I have averaged two 10-year and one 11-year periods; also con- verted all temperatures to Celcius which of course started in 1975: In the year 1958-67 - avecage temp.. 5 degrees, sunny days 12.5, rainy days 7.5, snowy days 3.3, 1968-77 - average temp. 7 degrees, sunny days 8.8, rainy days 6.7, snowy days 3.2, 1978-88 average temp, 5.5, sunny days 12, rainy days 7.3, snowy days 4.9 . In the "Remarks" column I was a little surprised to find five electri- cal storms and only three blizzards. The blizzards were all from the north-east like the one that slammed us recently. Other remarks that may be of interest: October ' 72, Federal elec- tion inconclusive October ' 76, N. and M. away moose-hunting, to Barbara Lake, Caramat, Wawa, Atikokan, Fort Frances, Kenora, and Winnipeg.

(Winnipeg? Well, when we were that close we thought we might as well drop in on some relatives. After living in the camper for almost a month we were scarcely your average city-slicker, but they were glad to see us anyway, I think!). October ' 81 will not be forgot- ten easily by old-time K-C'ers - the month the dreadful fire and explo- sion occurred. In 1983 two earthquakes hit the city of Ottawa during October. Son Brian and his wife told us they were so mild no-one was alarmed, just curious. The news media soon explained the cause, and it was soon forgotten. October ' 86 page in the weather book lists this modest bit of trivia: "Happy 70th Birthday to ME!" sy The most important happening in October ' 88 in my book Is: The whales are free! So Hallowe'en passed to November, wet, cold, and noisy. At least one mother is glad it's over - we asked three-year-old Eric Boucher how far he had walked: "Too far".
