Photos Capture Beauty Around Us
By Stewart Lytle, Reporter
–––––––––––––––––
REGIONAL – Maybe it takes people
who live in other parts of the state to
appreciate the beauty of the rocky coasts
and harbors, farms and historic downtowns
that surround us here in Essex County.
In its annual photo contest, the Essex
National Heritage Commission awarded
top prizes for photos taken in Newbury,
Commission and the National Park Service
at Salem Maritime and Saugus Iron Works
National Historic Sites.
The winning images will be exhibited
for a year at the National Park Service
Visitor Center at 2 New Liberty St, Salem
and at the office of the Merrimack Valley
Planning Commission, 160 Main Street,
Ipswich, Salisbury, Gloucester and Haverhill. They are also on Facebook at
Manchester by the Sea. But all of the
winning photographers came here from
elsewhere.
Eleven photographers who reside in
Lynn, Saugus and Groton won the annual
contest that “encourages photographers of
all levels to ‘capture’ the living landscapes,
unique places, and interesting people of
Essex County.”
The contest is presented by Essex
Heritage in partnership with Hunt’s Photo
www.facebook.com/EssexHeritage.
The grand prize winner was Laurence
Spang of Salem, who took a photo of waves
crashing at Salem.
The people’s choice winner was a photo
of a Monarch butterfly on a thistle shot by
Kathy Diamontopoulos of Haverhill.
The nine other winners were divided into
three categories – A Closer Look, People of
Essex County and Off the Beaten Path.
In the Closer Look category, the first

AMESBURY – Fred Harkness’ INroof
Solar company for several years has been
manufacturing a solar thermal metal
roofing system that uses the sun’s rays to
heat the air and water inside buildings.
Now, thanks to a grant from the
Massachusetts Clean Energy Center,
INroof will conduct tests here and
in New Mexico over the next year to
determine how efficient the panels are
in removing heat from the interiors of
buildings.
Depending on the results of the
tests, the metal panels could be a
breakthrough in providing year-round
heating and cooling and reducing the
carbon footprint created by traditional
air conditioning.
The Massachusetts Clean Energy
Center’s (MassCEC) Catalyst and
AccelerateMass programs are providing
a $65,000 grant to support the testing.

“The cleantech start-up community
is a vital element of Massachusetts’
nation-leading innovation and clean
energy economies and develops the
pioneering technologies we need to
combat climate change,” said Gov.
Charlie Baker in announcing the
grant. “As these young companies
pursue technology breakthroughs, our
administration remains committed to
providing resources to help stimulate
economic growth, strengthen our
workforce and meet our most pressing
energy challenges.”
The INroof solar system looks like a
standing seam metal roof. But inside
the panels is a layer of insulation and a

“The Fabulous 88”!!!!
Facebook Site - Rowley Citizens for Governmental Transparency
utilizing M.G.L. c. 231, § 59H seeking to get signatures or support
addressing governmental financial accountability has been successful,
the Facebook site receives numerous visits every day. This petition site
promotes transparency through public media. Transparency has been
For
difficult by this town given the recent unsuccessful Sale attempts to gather
records.
In response to Mr. Gallants’ recent letter to editor, Rowley citizens
thought our town fathers protect us, the public. “They” don’t!!!! They
should be focused on their “DUTY” of overseers, especially finance.
That’s “public fund spending”, “contract approval” and the development
of articles for our town meetings. The fabulous 88, as I called them in
a recent letter to editor, follow lockstep with anything the selectmen or
their finance committee (controlled by the selectmen) approve at the town
meetings. The selectmen receive their real power through the Fabulous 88
because the Fabulous 88 overturn the 27 of “us” opposing voters at town
meetings or the 800+ voters at the polls after the town meetings!
They are in charge, you are not! You are the townspeople that attend
town meetings. You may be part of the “Fabulous 88” or you may be “just
a voter” in Rowley for the general elections. Are you important and in
charge? As a voter, I thought we were!!! Rowley’s voting on the pot vote,
safety buildings or school budgets at the town meetings is run by the
selectmen! The only way that anything is passed is by the blessings from
town hall’s administrator and in turn and in particular the selectmen! No
plane takes off unless the selectmen are handed the wings of that plane
and that can’t happen until and unless the town administrator hands
them those parts.
Mr. Gallant’s letter to the editor last week was well intentioned. His
main message was put onto “us”, not “them”! We thought “them”
represented “us”, the other 4000 plus citizens at the polls, not “just” the
Fabulous 88 at town meetings. Incidently, “we” or “us” used to be able to
present articles on the floor. NOT ALLOWED ANYMORE!
Pot was legalized by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Did a group
of concerned citizens gather together, construct an article and get the reps
to put it on the ballot? Or did the boys of Boston get together with the
pot pac money lobby to create a revenue stream to support the pensions
for the UMASS system!!! None of this would happen unless “money” is
involved.
Mr. Gallant is right; we voted “it” in and In Rowley, by 4 votes by
_____?____?____? & ____?! However, “it” happened because the
towns’ direction comes from the Selectmen thru the Selectmen’s office.
The selectmen’s office has 5 heads, one is called a chairman. The voters,
including the Fab 88, think the open meeting laws are followed when
one selectmen a talks to selectmen D over phone. D calls B up, and then C
talks to P, M was sick that week or on vacation. Then the office constructs
an article that P will surely sign because his nephew just got a job on the
street department.
Your’ right Mr. Gallant! We voted these selectmen in, therefore we are
the problem!!

An Opportunity for Dialogue
Each year during the winter, schools around the commonwealth
begin their rituals of developing spending plans for the following
school year. What used to be a workable situation has now turned
to an annual challenge resulting in cuts to services and programs
rather than maintaining them. The state education funding
(Chapter 70) formula has, simply put, not kept up with rising
costs as envisioned by its authors in 1993. The challenges that
students face, and that we must account for as educators, were
not foreseen or planned for in developing the formula in the early
1990’s. The result is a formula that is entirely outdated, and that
has consistently shifted the burden of education to local cities and
town across the Commonwealth. Using Triton as an example, we
are receiving less state Chapter 70 aid in 2019 ($8.71M) than
we were seventeen years ago in 2002 ($8.87M). The result of
less actual dollars in revenue, combined with normal inflationary
increases to spending each year means that Chapter 70 revenues
now only pay for 21% of the Triton budget. In 2002, Chapter
70 paid for 34% of our operating expenses. The difference is now
paid for by our member communities.
The purpose of this letter is not to provide an extensive lesson
on Chapter 70, although the teacher in me is always happy to
do so for anyone interested. Rather, I hope to engage our entire
community in a dialogue about education budget challenges. I
have heard and read many comments and posts over the years, via
letters to the editor, emails, or social media posts, related to the
soaring costs of education budgets and the unsustainable impacts
on residents. This is a very real and present challenge, and one
that cannot be debated. However, while there are certainly major
budget cost drivers at play that are outside of our control, the
issue of the state shifting the burden of funding to local towns is
by far the greater culprit for local spending increases. My hope
is to build our collective understanding so that we can raise our
unified voices as residents, town officials, educators, parents,
students, and community members at large to call on Beacon
Hill and demand change.
We have setup “Drop In” meetings in each of our three member
communities, with no agenda or presentation. I am hopeful that
these informal gatherings will provide a forum where anyone
feels comfortable stopping by, where questions can be asked and
answered, and our goals and efforts can be aligned on behalf of
our students. Three dates have been scheduled: Monday, 3/4/19
at 10:00 AM at the Rowley Public Library, Tuesday, 3/5/19
at 11:00 AM at the Newbury Public Library, and Wednesday,
3/6/19 at 1:00 PM at the Salisbury Public Library. More will be
added if there is interest. Please join us, and we can hopefully
work together to ensure the Commonwealth keeps its promise
to fund education.

company’s website states. “The
top surface of our collectors uses
a special low-solar-reflective
paint to absorb heat, which is
then transferred to a nontoxic
propylene glycol solution, which
is circulated through custommade
plumbing adhered to the
metal roofing. The temperature
of the solution is monitored,
and when it is hot enough to
be a useful heat source, it is
sent to a storage or heat transfer
device. Thermal energy can be
used for solar hot water, space
heating, radiant floor heating,
ice melting and swimming pool
heating or industrial processes.”
The INroof system currently
does not cool the home or
building. While the greater need
in New England is for heating,
rather than cooling, Harkness

his panels can remove thermal
radiation from buildings.
The panels he will test here

The Museum of Old Newbury will kick off its spring program series with the premier screening of local historian Jean
Foley Doyle’s If you latest are documentary thinking about Newburyport’s selling we can French stop by Canadian your home Community. anytime for The a film will be shown at Newburyport’s
Senior Community Center (331 High Street) on Wednesday, March 6 at 7:00pm, with a reception preceding at 6:30. The
program is free and open to the public, and seating will be available on a first-come, first-serve basis with doors opening
at 6:30pm.
Over the past five years, Doyle has
created three other documentary films
focusing on different aspects of local
history. Each has been a community
effort, featuring photographs from a
number of institutions and family collections,
interviews with local people,
and even the occasional performance
by local musicians. Newburyport’s
French Canadian Community promises
to continue in the same tradition,
highlighting and personalizing a piece
of local history that has often been
overlooked. John Dodge, Marcia
Foley, and Ron Ziemba lent their
talents to the project in researching
various topics and narrating portions
of the film, while editing and production
were completed by Caterina
Masia Fine Films in collaboration with the Greater Newburyport NCM Hub.
Newburyport’s French Canadian community took root in the 1890s, when farmers from Quebec arrived to work in
Newburyport’s mills and factories during the winter months. Although some workers stayed only seasonally, many felt they
had better opportunities in Newburyport than in Canada, and decided to stay. Meanwhile, Newburyport’s shoe factories
were thriving, and provided jobs for many newly arrived immigrants to Newburyport, including French Canadians.
The rise and fall of the shoe industry featured prominently in the lives of those who came to work in its factories. The
industry boomed in the last decade of the 19th century, with upwards of 20 “boot and shoe makers” listed in city directories
for 1894-1895. By the 1930s, however, changing styles and workers’ strikes signaled the industry’s demise. As featured in
the film, rarely seen photographs of shoe factory workers, owners, the factories themselves, and the shoes they produced
highlight this important local business.
French Canadians working in shoe factories and other industries soon found themselves longing for the familiarity
and camaraderie of the French Catholic churches they had left behind in Canada. In 1904, St. Aloysius de Gonzaga was
erected on Federal Street, and the church and its accompanying school served as the focal point of the community’s social
and spiritual life for decades. In addition to church activities, families enjoyed many popular pastimes of the era, including
bicycle rides, trips to the beach at Plum Island, and seeing movies at local theaters.
Though the church on Federal Street closed its doors in 1999, and the shoe factories were shuttered long before then,
French Canadian families left their mark on Newburyport’s history, and many of their descendants continue to call the
city home today.

Health & Wellness
BY J. PETER ST. CLAIR, DMD
You’ve heard it before – three
in four adults over 35 have
some form of gum disease.
And a preponderance of new
clinical research reveals that
gum disease poses a far greater
threat to health than just losing
a tooth. Periodontal disease
may actually increase your risk
for a variety of health concerns
including heart attacks, low
birth weight babies, diabetes
and stroke.
Dr. Isadore Rosenfield,
Health Editor of PARADE
magazine – “People with
chronically infected gums have
twice as much heart disease
as the rest of us. We have an
imperative to treat gum disease
– to save not only teeth but
also patients.”
Dr. Steven Offenbacher,
director of the Center for Oral
and Systemic Disease at the
University of North Carolina at
Chapel Hill – “In many ways,
periodontal disease is like high
blood pressure – it’s painless
and only becomes evident
when it’s quite severe.”
All gum disease begins with
the accumulation of plaque,
a sticky deposit of bacteria,
RESEARCH POINTS TO CBD AS AN EFFECTIVE SLEEP AID
If you suffer from sleep deprivation
or more serious sleeping disorders,
you are not alone. This chronic
problem is an epidemic. A report by
the Center for Disease Control and
Prevention states that “A third of US
adults report that they usually get
less than the recommended amount
of sleep. Not getting enough sleep is
linked with many chronic diseases—
such as type 2 diabetes, heart disease,
obesity, and depression — that
threaten our nation’s health.”
The good news is that more and
more studies are finding CBD to be
an effective tool for helping people
sleep. CBD, or cannabidiol, is one
of the many compounds found in
the cannabis or hemp plant. CBD
has extensive medicinal benefits
but is non-addictive and nonpsychoactive;
it does not cause the
“high” associated with cannabis.
Brighter Smiles...
mucus and food particles
that build up along the gum
line and between the teeth.
Plaque can cause gingivitis
– inflammation of the gums.
Plaque must be removed daily
to prevent buildup. Brushing
and flossing, coupled with
a minimum of twice-yearly
professional cleanings, will
combat gingivitis in most
people.
There is a strong genetic
component to periodontal
disease. One of the questions
I always ask my patients is
whether or not they know their
familial history with regards
to gum disease. If a patient
says, “Well, my parents both
had dentures”, then there is a
strong possibility that patient
has the gene for gum disease.
There are only two main
reasons that people lose teeth
– gum disease and decay – and
the prior is far more likely.
If gingivitis is not treated, or
is treated too late, the result
can become periodontitis. This
occurs when plaque invades
beneath the gum, turning
into a hard substance called
tartar or calculus. Calculus
can only be removed during
a professional cleaning. At the
stage, skilled care is essential
to stave off tooth loss. In more
advanced cases, a procedure
called scaling and root planing
is performed to remove hidden
plaque and tartar from below
By Molly Gibson
Ongoing research continues to
highlight how well CBD works on
the body and brain to encourage
sleep.
Kurt Kalker, a registered nurse
for 25 years who works on staff at
Cape Ann Botanicals says, “We’ve
seen amazing efficacy with sleep
problems using CBD.”
A study in the “Journal of
Psychopharmacology” on the
sleep-wake cycle found that the
administration of CBD appears to
increase total sleep time. Another
study in the “Journal of Clinical
Pharmacology” shows how CBD can
alleviate insomnia. CBD also helps
with issues like chronic pain and
anxiety that can affect sleep, as shown
in studies published in a variety of
journals including “Clinical Journal
of Pain” and “Neurotherapeutics.”
Carla Villa, General Manager
LIFE SAVER
the gum line.
Do you have gum disease?
Warning signs may not be
evident to you but may
include red, swollen, tender,
bleeding or receding gums;
loose teeth; persistent bad
breath; changes in tooth
position; and the development
of pockets between gums and
teeth. It used to be that your
dentist could only diagnose
periodontal disease from x-
rays that showed loss of bone
around teeth. Today, gum
disease and periodontal disease
can be successfully treated
BEFORE teeth get loose from
bone loss.
Your hygienist and dentist
can measure the pockets
and bleeding points around
your teeth and institute nonsurgical
treatment before you
suffer the irreversible bone
destruction of periodontal
disease. So remember – the
hygienists of the 21st century
don’t just clean teeth – THEY
SAVE LIVES!

private dental practice in Rowley

at Cape Ann Botanicals, a CBD
store with locations in Ipswich
and Newburyport, says, “The joy
of seeing a customer come in after
trying CBD, and finally sleeping
a full 6 hours for the first time in
years, is priceless!”
To thrive a full night’s sleep is a
necessity. That’s why Cape Ann
Botanicals is committed to education
on this subject. Their first Hands
On, CBD workshop in March
will offer a variety of homeopathic
options that work in conjunction
with CBD to increase quality and
quantity of sleep.
