Bobbi Crittenden, Administrator PUBLIC NOTICE The Operations and Engineering Division of SaskWater will be treating the Saskatoon Southeast Water Supply System (S.S.E.W.S.) canal between the Blackstrap and Zelma Reservoirs to control weeds and algae during the 2010 irrigation season. Treatment dates are May 4, May 18, June 1, June 15, June 29, July 13, July 27, August 10, August 24 and September 8, 2010. The canal between the Zelma and Dellwood Reservoirs will be treated for the same reasons on May 5, May 19, June 2, June 16, June 30, July 14, July 28, August 11, August 25 and September 9, 2010. The chemical Magnacide “H” with its active ingredient “Acrolein”, will be noticeable in the water by its offensive odour. The canal flow rate may be lowered during treatment so that less chemical will be required. The chemical will remain active in the canal for approximately 24 hours after each treatment, and will diminish to non-detectable levels prior to treated water entering the reservoirs. Area residents are warned that chemically treated water is not to be used for drinking during this 24-hour period. Treated water may also be harmful to the skin, causing irritation to exposed areas. Dosages will be maintained at a level where the water can safely be used for irrigation with no damage to field crops. People are reminded that swimming in the canal at any time is STRICTLY PROHIBITED; swimming in treated water may cause skin irritation. Magnacide “H” can kill fish by suffocation, but it does not accumulate in fish flesh. Fishing in the canal is not permitted. This water treatment ensures irrigation intakes are free from clogging and adequate flows are maintained in this multi-use system. Since no other feasible alternative exists to control the growth of weeds in canals, they are best controlled with this short-lived, widely-used, registered chemical.

Chairper- 10053AA00 Church of the Holy Spirit plaque unveiling submitted by Sue Alcock, Manitou Beach “The spiritual needs of local Anglican residents and summer visitors were met with the construction of this church in 1931” so begins the text for the fifth historical plaque by Manitou Beach Communities in Bloom (MB- CIB). This plaque, commemorating The Church of the Holy Spirit was unveiled Sunday, May 2 by Val Hinde and Sue Alcock at a well attended tea held in All Saints’ Anglican Church Parish Hall. Special guests were Rev. Colin Clay and the mayors of both communities Eric Upshall and Ed Collins. All three men spoke of their support and goodwill for the historical plaque project. Elaine Muzichuk, chairperson of MBCIB was emcee for the tea and Sue Alcock talked a little about how the plaque came into being and how it was initiated by Val Hinde’s desire to commemorate the former church. Work on the plaque text was done by Sue Alcock with Jean and Lionel Sproule and the photograph came from the Diocese of Saskatoon archives located in Saskatchewan Archives, Saskatoon. The late Dorothy Hunt was the first to talk about this church to me and twigged my interest. The church was dedicated Monday, June 20, 1932 by the Bishop of Qu’Appelle, the Right Reverend Malcolm Taylor McAdam Harding, “in the presence of a large and devout congregation” because at that time the newly created Diocese of Saskatoon lacked a bishop. Bishop Lloyd had retired in 1931 and the new bishop, William Hallam, did not assume the title of Bishop of Saskatoon until Nov. 9, 1932. Constructed of wood on a lot donated by J.J. MacLachlan by Alf Parsonson, the building measured 20 feet by 40 feet and cost $1,000 to construct. In 1936 more pews were added by Parsonson so it could seat a congregation of 65. During the summer months Evensong and Holy Communion services were conducted by the vicar from All Saints’ Church Watrous and Sunday school was available for children, including our own Lionel Sproule son of Manitou Beach Communities in Bloom Elaine Muzichuk was emcee for the tea. – photos submitted by Marie Brumwell, Manitou Beach who grew up here. The church was located on the northeast corner of Watrous St. and Lakeview Ave. and as it was so close to the ball ground sometimes services were interrupted by the excited spectators! According to the Record of Services Tuesday, July 19, 1932 a baptism service was held with two communicants. Does anyone know who was baptized that day July 19, 1942, there was a record congregation and extra chairs set out for some of the 300 members of the Security Corps who were on parade at Manitou Beach with the salute taken by Colonel Stayor at Hiawatha Inn. Records for the church are scant as the church was probably not locked and records kept in a parishioner’s home. Who knows the fate of those documents - fire, flood or relatives clearing out the house after the death of the owner could have been their demise. In 1953 the church was moved to a lot closer to the Chalet Pool and in 1957 relocated again, this time into Watrous where it became the Parish Hall for All Saints’ Church. Many Anglican locals remember attending AYPA and Sunday school as well as other social events in the hall. Just when the former church was moved to a local farm yard is hard to pinpoint. A new vicarage, funded mostly by a legacy from Alf Pierce of Manitou Beach was still under construction in November 1967 when Rev. W.S. Tibbo was inducted and his reception was held in the Parish Hall. Most likely the old hall was moved once the vicarage became habitable and the old vicarage - the present day Parish Hall – was maybe remodelled. So perhaps the former Church of the Holy Spirit was moved away 1968 or 1969 Who has a good and accurate memory of these events Sources: Archives and archivists from the Diocese of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan and Qu’Appelle; the Watrous Signal and The Watrous Manitou newspapers in Saskatchewan Archives.

OBITUARY FEDERSPIEL, Harvey Russell Harvey Federspiel, aged 56 years, passed away suddenly at his residence near Stalwart on Tuesday, April 27, 2010. Harvey was born on August 28, 1953 to Russell and Bernice (nee Thresher) in Imperial, Sask. He grew up on the family farm near Stalwart with five brothers and one sister. Harvey attended school in Imperial and became a true farmer at an early age. On October 13, 1973 he married Sharon (nee Allan) in Imperial and together they farmed and raised three boys, Sean, Brett and Brad. Harvey enjoyed hunting, fishing, snowmobiling and having coffee with his family and friends. He loved farming the land and nothing was more important to him than his family. Harvey passed away suddenly from a heart attack at the family farm. Harvey is survived by his loving family: wife Sharon of 36 years; three sons Sean (Mona), Brad (Shelley) and Brett; two granddaughters Kaitlynn and Breana; mother Bernice Federspiel; four brothers Melvin (Glenda), Norman, Guy and Stanley (Yvette); one sister Sharon; mother-in-law Margaret Allan; sisters-in-law Doris (Ron) Wilson, Joyce (Blaine) Crittenden, Marylynn (Bob) Wright and Bonnie (Scott) Spencer and a number of nieces and nephews.

FELSKE, Lloyd Douglas May 8, 1932 - Apr. 29, 2010 Lloyd Felske, aged 77 years, formerly of Regina and Nokomis, Sask. passed away peacefully at Central Parkland Lodge in Lanigan, Sask. on Thursday, April 29, 2010. Lloyd was born on May 8, 1932 to Wanda and Emmanuel Felske and was raised near the rural town of Nokomis, Sask. He was a loving husband, father, grandfather, uncle and friend who gave of himself to assist family and friends. The love of the land and animals was a lifelong passion as Lloyd assisted his parents and son Dallas on farms in Nokomis at different stages of his life. Lloyd’s working career ranged from farming/ranching, restaurant owner (If you can’t Live on Love; Eat at Lloyd’s), driving gas truck, mechanic, building roads (R.M. of Lajorde) to becoming a second class steam/power engineer at the University of Regina from 1966 to 1994. Lloyd was also an active CUPE member from 1975 to 2002 and was a key participant in many negotiations. Lloyd and his wife Elaine retired to a second career on the Felske farm/ranch in Nokomis, Sask. in 1994 to tend to the land, cattle, dogs and cats. Lloyd believed in the power of prayer and was able to overcome two cancer related incidences in 1969 and 2002 and battled with congestive heart failure until his passing. Lloyd will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered by his wife of 53 years, Elaine (nee Helstrom) and family; sons Neale (Jacinta), granddaughters Allana, Amanda, Amelia, Ashley of Calgary, Alta.; Dallas of Nokomis, Sask.; Owen (Brenda), grandson Karsten, granddaughters Keltie, Korbin, Kassia of Prince Albert, Sask. Lloyd is also survived by his two brothers Arnold (Phillis), Ron (Mary) and sister Muriel (Jasko); sisters-in-law Norma (Curly) Douglas; brother-in-law Dave and (Sheri) Helstrom and numerous nephews and nieces.

Graveside memorial service of cremated remains took place at Nokomis Cemetery Saturday, May 8 conducted by Pastor Rick Shott.

Fotheringham-McDougall Funeral Service of Watrous and Nokomis was in care of arrangements. The Power of Prayer Prayer is a force as real as terrestrial gravity. I have seen men, after all therapy had failed, lifted out of disease and melancholy by the serene effort of prayer. Only in prayer do we achieve the complete and harmonious assembly of body, mind and spirit, which gives the frail human reed its unshakable strength.
