4 • MONDAY, JUNE 8, 2009 THE WATROUS MANITOUEditorial and OpinionJust Layzing AroundThis spring, thanks to my son’sparticipation in a Saskatoonthree-on-three hockey league,I’ve had the honour (dubious attimes) of driving four teenageboys to the city and back a coupleof times.By the way, it takes about 70minutes to get to the GeminiArena just south of Saskatoon,approximately 15 minutes forthem to get into their equipment,about 10 minutes to get out ofthat ‘looks the same but smellsdifferent’ attire, perhaps five minutesto buy slush and chips andchocolate bars and candy at theEsso just down the road, and another70 minutes to return home.All this for a 45-minute straighttime hockey game. It is by thesestandards we judge how much we love our children.However, and fortunately for me, I find the 140 minutes that I’mbehind the wheel to be the most interesting part of the trip, seeing ashow it’s not only the longest part of the adventure but also the stinkiest,at least on the return trip. What I really enjoy is the wide range ofconversations we share, and I do mean ‘we’. It’s really a nice feeling tobe talked to and perhaps even listened to by a crew of 13- and 14-yearoldboys. I have the sense it’s going to happen less and less in the nextfew years, so I really want to take advantage of every opportunity Iam given.Without going into detail, during the last two round trips I’ve madewith the boys, we have discussed cancer, confirmation (at church,that is), movies (and in particular, what exact words were said bywhich actor to whom, and what the exact response was - and I cansay, their powers of recollection about that is quite amazing, yet theycannot remember to pack socks into their hockey bags or fruit intotheir lunches without being told a dozen times), what they want to bewhen they grow up, what book they’re reading in ELA (for those ofus who graduated before the ‘90s, that means English, or literature,or reading, depending just how long it’s been since you’ve graduated),football, hockey, tennis (and the incredibly powerful catgut on ‘oldschool’ racquets), cell phones, jokes, money, getting sacked (hey, it is avanload of boys) and food.Noticeably absent from that long and yet not even comprehensivelist is girls. That is one topic I find does not come up in front of me,the mom, no matter how much I attempt to worm it out of them.Naturally, the dirty looks shooting my way from under the bangs thathang in my son’s eyes don’t stop my from trying, but eventually theircombined evasiveness and blatant attempts to change the subjectdiscourage me from pursuing the topic. No worries, I’ll just get morecunning as the trips accumulate, and eventually someone will slip.In the meantime, I enjoy listening to their laughs and taunts, theirbravado and boasts, their goofiness and giggles. What they don’t realizeis that those drives offer we, their parents, a way to continue to getto know them as they change and mature. When your child becomesa teen, there are fewer and fewer chances to witness that happen. If Ihave to put up with a play-by-play of the movie Stepbrothers in orderto do it, I’m there.theWatrous Manitoutwo communities . . . one source for newsThe Watrous Manitou309 Main Street • Box 100, Watrous, Saskatchewan S0K 4T0Phone: (306) 946-3343 • Fax (306) 946-2026Email:watrous.manitou@sasktel.net • Website: www.thewatrousmanitou.caMember SWNAPublished MondayMember CCNA48 issues per yearEditorial Policy: The opinions expressed on these pages may not be thoseof The Watrous Manitou.

McGowan“There you are kids, something you don’t see every day -a Ninja dandelion fighter . . . ”Capturing a moment in timeIt is exciting discoveringa time capsule. The anticipationof what might be insideonly heightens the emotionsof actually opening the timecapsule itself.The residents of Weyburnrecovered a time capsuleduring the demolition of anold, vacant hospital. Originallyhoused in a cornerstonein 1921, the metal box wasdiscovered exactly 88 yearsafter it was buried.There was lots of excitementand it was decided toopen the box in front of dignitaries,historical individualsand media. Inside was aset of silver and gold coinsfrom the years 1899 to 1920, aprogram and invitation to theoriginal ceremony, newspapersand a letter listing thedignitaries present that day.But, there were some disappointments.Some thoughtthere would be messagesfrom all levels of governmentor photos or a mention thatthe premier himself attended.Still, the contents areimportant to the residentsof the area and the localmuseum, which is presentlydisplaying the contents.Time capsules are a traditionand have been used foryears. It is a way to preservea piece of today for thefuture. Sometimes, a capsulecan be unintentional - eventsof nature that happen, causingitems to be buried. Thosethat are intentional are oftenmeant to be opened on acertain date. The contentsare placed to give an insightinto what the day or event orcelebration was like.The type of container usedis as important as the contentsplaced in the capsule. Coins,newspapers and photographsare the most popularchoices. Buthistorical or everydayitems can alsobe included. Theidea is to give futuregenerations aglimpse of societytoday. It is a wayof communicatingour thoughts andlifestyles.Perhaps twoof the most interesting timecapsules are the ones currentlyin space, Voyager GoldenRecord I and II, which wereattached to Voyager spacecraftslaunched in 1977. Both areidentical and are gramophonerecords. Included onthe record: music, naturalsounds, images from aroundthe world and greetings in 55languages. This is meant toportray our culture as it wasat the time. What will futuregenerations (or any intelligentextraterrestrial life)think of our world in 1977?Some of this shift inthinking, of preservationfor the future, is attributedto the Victorian era. Duringthis period more emphasiswas placed on history andcommemorating time. Thisshift explains the many timecapsules found in Victoria,B.C. The influence of Victoriais evident as pioneerssaw themselves as heroes ofhistory in establishing thecolony. A cornerstone for theIndependent Order of OddFellows Hall was laid in Victoriain 1879 with items ofthe day. Of course, there wasa ceremony andcelebration.For thepeople ofWeyburn, thequestion nowis, what is tobe done withthe contentsof their timecapsule? Somefeel the museumshouldbe the permanent custodians;others feel the capsuleshould be sealed and buriedagain, along with a new timecapsule.The idea is togive futuregenerations aglimpse of societytoday. It is a wayof communicatingour thoughtsand lifestyles.

After four gamesin six nights, the Wings suddenly looked tired and beatup, when they looked unbeatable after two games. SteveSimmons says one reason why Detroit should win theStanley Cup: “Nicklas Lidstrom, Brian Rafalski andNiklas Kronwall are better than any single Pittsburghdefenceman.” He might also be right when he says, “Ifthe Penguins don’t fire Michel Therrien and replacehim with Dan Bylsma, not only do they not get to theStanley Cup final, they probably don’t make the playoffs.”“His nickname coming into the playoffs was ‘NoGood,’” noted Bruce Garrioch. “Lately, Chris Osgoodhas been all good. In what was billed as a goaltendingduel, the veteran Red Wings netminder has clearly outplayedthe younger Marc-Andre Fleury.” Osgood has tobe at least considered on the Olympic radar screen after,one-by-one, other top Canadian goalies have imploded…Brodeur, Luongo, Ward and Fleury, each briefly hailedas a saviour. I repeat… I am worried about our Olympicteam. You want more evidence?

THE WATROUS MANITOU MONDAY, JUNE 8, 2009 • 11Arts and EntertainmentVideo Viewsby Earl HayhurstGran Torino - It is amazing Clint Eastwood stillkeeps turning out masterpieces at his age. Last year at78 he directed the marvellous Angelina Jolie thrillerChangeling and then a few months later he directed andstarred in Gran Torino. Eastwood plays (Walt Kowalski)a cranky, racist, old man who, after losing his wife, justwants to be left alone, spite his racial remarks at the increasingminority neighbourhood and drink his beer.Of course that does not happen when a young Koreanboy next door attempts to steal his prized car - a vintageGran Torino. After a few run-ins with the kid and family.Eastwood warms to the family and Gran Torino playsout in a funny, intense and heartbreaking way. What agreat movie. Eastwood has said this will be his last actingrole. I hope not, but what a cap to an amazing actingcareer. (14A)The International - Intense thriller about how banksare controlling the world. Despite what we all think it notfact based, but still scary. Clive Owen plays an Interpolagent who stumbles over the plot, which included armsdealing and murder. He teams with a reporter (NaomiWatts) and the body count starts to rise. Excellent directionby Tom Tykwer (Run Lola Run) and a corker of anaction scene in the Guggenheim art gallery. Good solidthriller. (14A)Fired Up - Two high school jocks opt for cheerleadercamp instead of football camp and the comic hijinksensue. I have not seen this yet. It looks like the typicalteen comedy, and we have not had one of those in aboutthree weeks. (PG)TV on DVD - Good week here.

Ateam of 15 including four survivors fromManitou Beach with Elaine Muzichuk ascaptain decided to enter the relay to raisemoney for cancer research. For some reasonthe name Beachcombers was chosenand if we had hoped to wear beach wear,(maybe bikinis) we very quickly changedour minds. We started the relay at 7 p.m.Friday and concluded at 5:30 a.m. Saturday.By the end of the relay, those who hadbraved the elements right to the end werebeginning to worry about frostbite. Thetemperature dropped close to the zeromark.Our main fundraising effort was a rafflefor a quilt made by Elaine Muzichukand others in memory of Mabel Graf, aManitou Beach resident who had passedaway from cancer in 2008. Between theraffle and pledges our group raised over$2,700 for cancer research. The quilt waswon by Mike Prestie of Moose Jaw andthe shawl was won by Gaye Dore of Saskatoon.The Humboldt relay was chosenas our venue for participation becauseMabel Graf ’s extended family were activelyinvolved in planning that event.Here is some data about the relay.There were 52 teams entered with 579participants and of those 130 were survivors;140 volunteers helped organize theevent and worked throughout the night;1,537 luminaries were sold and lit aroundthe track and a total of $153,054.36 wasraised!An effort is being made by the Communitiesin Bloom volunteers to spruce up thevillage for the 90th anniversary bash thefirst weekend in July. Wednesday, abouta dozen volunteers went through WellingtonPark to clean, clear some underbrushand prune wayward branches. Thegazebo picnic area was spruced up. Allhomeowners are urged to tidy their yardsand if possible, back lanes and ditches intheir vicinity. In about a week all barrelsand flower beds in public areas should beplanted.June 3 was a date of some significanceto the people of Watrous and area. June 3,1939 King George VI and Queen Elizabethenjoyed a 15-minute stopover in Watrous.They were greeted by mayor, Dr. Agar andafter a brief ceremony they mingled withthe crowd of an estimated 15,000 people.There were no visible armed guards atthe site. How things have changed. It wasa tremendously exciting event in thosedays. There are some very good picturesof the event on pages 881 and 882 in PrairieReflections.

16 • MONDAY, JUNE 8, 2009 THE WATROUS MANITOUsubmitted by Faye MarcouxThe siren at the Viscount Fire Hall rangthroughout the village at approximately 6p.m. Thursday, May 28. This alarm alertsthe community to an emergency that ourlocal volunteer fire department and/orfirst responders will be attending.This time, thankfully, there was noserious emergency but the Viscount FirstResponders and the Viscount Fire Departmentstaged a serious accident in conjunctionwith EMS week for the community towitness how our emergency personnel dotheir jobs. Also participating in the ‘accidentscene’ were four EMTs from Laniganambulance and two Colonsay RCMP officers.Morene Yaworski did make up; shedid a fabulous job and made the injurieslook very real.A two-car T-bone accident with six passengerswere involved. The one vehiclehad two passengers who were intoxicatedcausing the collision with the other innocentvehicle. The actresses were part ofthe VCS SADD group.The RCMP officer took the driver ofthe vehicle, who was the cause of the accident,into custody because she was drivingunder the influence of alcohol. Herpassenger was also taken to the RCMPvehicle where she was kept contained bya member of the Viscount Fire Department.Meanwhile, the firefighters, first respondersand EMTs were attending thefour girls in the impacted car. Two wereable to get out and were taken to theambulance where they were treated fora broken arm and minor scratches. Theparamedics took turns comforting theseMock accident held at Viscounthysterical girls as they witnessed the carnageof the accident and seriousness oftheir friend’s injuries.Paramedics and first responders werein the vehicle attending to the two trappedgirls as best they could. Recognizing lifethreatening injuries, the firemen used theJaws of Life as quickly as possible to extricatethe front seat passenger. She wasset on a backboard and immediately attendedto. While some were attempting tostop blood flow, others were trying to keepthe girl alive with mouth-to-mouth resuscitationand CPR. All their efforts arein vain as she succumbed to her injuries.She is pronounced dead at the scene and awhite sheet is placed over her body whilelying on the Viscount street.Although disappointed they were unableto save this innocent girl, the paramedicsand first responders then go seewhere they can help their comrades. TheViscount Fire Department has been gettingthe car ripped apart to release thenext trapped girl. The last girl is finallyfreed from the vehicle and she has a seriousbut non-life threatening injury to herleg. As soon as she is released from thevehicle she receives medical attention.This is where the acting ends and thefour injured girls get up and the two girlsare released from police custody and theyall start talking and visiting with theaudience. The reality of the mock accidentis not lost on the large crowd. Thereare so many little things each firemanor each first responder does at any accidentscene. All has been practiced timeand time again with different scenarios,always hoping they will be prepared forwhatever accident they may be called to.The fire department demonstrated howthe Jaws of Life work and the power thisunit contains. They performed a ‘dashroll’ on a vehicle to remove a trappedperson where the front of the vehicle hascrushed down on the person’s legs, againdemonstrating how the Jaws of Life andpower cutting tools leave the vehicle likea demolished tin can.Everyone then went to the fire hallwhere the fire department and first respondersheld an open house with coffee,juice and doughnuts. The Colonsay RCMPalso brought the SGI rollover simulatorand demonstrated the dangers of notwearing a seat belt. He first showed howthe dummy tossed and turned inside aclosed vehicle and then showed how theywere ejected from the vehicle so quicklywhen the windows were open and no seatbelts were in use.

The ministerjust can’t attend everything” so Brkich will assistwith various announcements.“All through the province agriculture needs to be onthe forefront,” he said. “Most farmers and ranchers arepaying lower education property taxes, thanks to thechange our government made in the way education isfunded. I look forward to being able to play a larger partin supporting our producers.”Shortly after the announcement Wall said he was assumingresponsibility over the Ministry of IntergovernmentalAffairs. That ministry, formerly the responsibilityof Bill Boyd, will now be part of Executive Council.Wall added that Enterprise Minister Ken Cheveldayoffwill also serve as Minister responsible for Trade and willrepresent the premier at meetings of trade ministers.

A rebate programhas been put in place for the use of geothermalheating systems.Eligible businesses could receive a 15 per cent rebateon the cost of installing a Canadian GeoExchange Coalitioncertified geothermal heating and cooling system.The maximum for the rebate is $100,000.Crown Corporations minister Ken Cheveldayoff said,“Geothermal is an environmentally-responsible alternativeto many traditional sources of heating - especiallyelectric heat. Interest in geothermal is growing in ourprovince and providing these financial incentives willmake it feasible for even more people to install a geothermalsystem in their home or business.”Financial support for residential or farm customersworking to install a geothermal system has beenenhanced. Interest rates for the Geothermal and Self-Generated Renewable Power Loan Program that was unveiledlast fall have been lowered.Right now there are a small number of contractorswho have experience with geothermal on a commercialscale and the government said it is working with the privatesector to develop the expertise for the markets.Existing buildings that are heated by natural gas arenot eligible for the rebate; however, in a new building, ifthere is access to natural gas, a feasibility study will beconducted to compare the cost and environmental implicationsof geothermal, electricity and natural gas.SaskPower will help with that study, funding up tohalf of the first $5,000 and up to 25 per cent of the remainingcosts.EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITYResort Village of Manitou BeachJob applications are being accepted forcleaning personnel for community hall andseasonal public washroom cleaning.Successfull candidate will work 21-35 hours per weekincluding weekends, holidays & evenings as required.Resumes may be dropped off atthe Village Office at 701 Lakeview Ave.or mailed to Box 1, R.R. #1,Watrous, SK S0K 4T0The Resort Village of Manitou Beachinvites applications for the position ofVillage Maintenance Person/Certified Water Plant OperatorThis challenging position involves operation of:Water Treatment Plant, Heavy & Light Equipment operationand shared supervision of General Public Works personnel.Must demonstrate ability to work unsupervised and communicate wellwith public.

The club showcasedits talents in an afternoon show that included 43 soloand duet numbers and an evening show of 36 groups.Three year-end awards are given out each year by thedance teachers and the recipients this year includedAlexa Westby for most promising, Kamryn Holma formost improved and Lizzy Koupantsis for the teacher’s100 years of rural historyBy Daniel BushmanTWMWhile settlers to thisarea began taking up theland in 1903, it was notuntil six years later theRural Municipality ofMorris was formed, makingthis year its centennial.Throughout the existenceof the area containedwithin the RM, many taskswere done including constructingroads, establishinghealth care and schooldistricts, collecting taxesfor RM improvements,and encouraging new settlersto the area.The Local ImprovementDistrict #16T2, asMorris municipality wasknown then, held meetingsin Little ManitouSchool southeast of Youngwith J.M. Currie chairingthe inaugural one Aug. 2,1907. A. Murray was thesecretary and L.J. Prestonwas treasurer.Early on, a decision wasmade to mail municipaland school taxes togetherwith the tax rate set at 1.25cents per acre.Councillors were paid$2 per meeting and 10cents a mile for travel withD.N. Northcott elected secretarytreasurer and J.M.Currie chairman for 1908.In 1909, taxes wereThe RM of Morris office, built in 1918.raised to 2.5 cents peracre and a weed inspectorbrought in the year before.The last meeting ofthe Local ImprovementDistrict was held in November1909, which thenbecame the RM of Morris#312.The first council of theRM included: reeve RobertCross (1910-‘12); Div. 1- O.M. Holm (1910-‘14); Div.2 - John Foster (1910-‘11);Div. 3 - D. Sullivan (1910-‘11); Div. 4 - J. Allingham(1910-‘11); Div. 5 - FrankYoung (1910); Div. 6 - JohnMcBride (1910-‘11); secretary/treasurer- E.
