For The TownSmanThe November Koo-

tenay East Regional Hospital District (KERHD) meeting start-ed off with a tribute to outgoing KERHD board chair John Kettle.

Kettle joined the Kootenay East Regional Hospital District Board in 2003 and was first elected chair in 2008.

“A great deal has been accomplished during his time on the board,” said KERHD act-ing chair Dean McKer-racher. “In 2007, the year before Mr. Kettle took over as chair, the Koote-nay East Regional Hos-pital District taxation was at its highest. Since then, the taxation has decreased every year until 2014 when it held steady.

“To put this into numbers, the 2014 req-uisition was 39 per cent lower than it was in 2007.

“Yes, some of this is to do with the major up-grade of the East Koote-nay Regional Hospital, but much of it is to the credit of chair Kettle’s leadership which in-cluded a regular re-minder to us all that we mainly fund only bricks and mortar.”

Kettle was instru-mental in advancing projects at the East Koo-tenay Regional Hospital including the ICU rede-

velopment and electri-cal upgrade, a new CT scanner, and an im-proved isolation room air system which to-talled almost $23 mil-lion. In addition, the $4.3 million Invermere Hospital emergency room upgrade was un-dertaken sooner than expected due to the Ket-tle’s efforts to advance the project at the provin-cial level.

“John worked tire-lessly in the background with Interior Health, the Ministry, Ministers and MLAs to advocate for the region and build strong working relation-ships,” added McKer-racher. “We will miss his leadership.”

Kettle, who did not run for re-election, will spend time with his fam-ily over the next few months and hopes to continue to be involved in health advocacy.

The Kootenay East Regional Hospital Dis-trict covers a large area including the RDEK, and Creston and Golden and their surrounding rural communities. The function of the Hospital District is to provide up to 40 per cent of the funding for equipment and construction proj-ects at health care facili-ties within the Hospital District, with the re-maining cost being cov-ered by Interior Health.

Hospital District Bids Farewell to John Kettle

KERHD chair John Kettle passes the torch to act-ing chair Dean McKerracher after 11 years of ser-vice. Kettle bid farewell at the the final meeting on Nov. 7 before the local elections on Nov. 15.

Tre vor Cr awleyDiscussions on mosquitos

were on tap at a recent communi-ty meeting in Wardner earlier in November, as residents were pre-sented with a report on mosquito control.

Culex Environmental, which authored the report, conducted preliminary fieldwork to identify specific hotspots with above av-erage abundances of nuisance mosquito species larvae around the Fort Steele, Mayook, Colony Road, Bull River, Wardner, and Norbury Lakes area.

Area C director Rob Gay said it was a well attended meeting with roughly 71 area residents, who heard from Dr. Michael Jackson, who took the lead in authoring the report.

“He talked a lot about the sci-ence of it, and what we are treat-ing it with and how the agent that they would use to kill mosquitos is very selective,” said Gay. “It only kills mosquitos, it doesn’t kill anything else in the system so it’s fairly benign on the environ-ment.”

He also added the crowd learned a few interesting facts about the insects, such as their

lifespan, which is actually 28 days and they can travel up to 20 miles.

“And that was what we wanted to do, was get a good understand-ing on the science, then we talked a little bit more on how the pro-cess might look if it went to taxa-tion and the pros and cons of those things,” Gay continued.

In total, the report identifies 27 problem sites that spans 219 hectares—a marked drop from a 2003 report that identified 1,018 hectares, which is likely due to flooding that happened that year.

The main findings stemming from the report state that in an average flooding year, four sites are responsible for roughly 77 per cent of total larvae collected. However, in consulting with local residents, the worst mosquito seasons usually coincide with high flooding seasons.

The presentation encom-passed phase one of a program that starts with assessment before moving to strategic planning, im-plementation, adaptive manage-ment and education.

Further actions will include obtaining more data before and after treatments to identify breed-ing sites, provide management

options specifically tailored to the management plan of the area and provide pesticide application methods to be implemented in the most efficient and least haz-ardous manner.

Culex estimates that one sea-son of mosquito control will cost between $50,000 to $75,000 a year, depending on environmen-tal conditions and mosquito breeding levels.

Moving forward, the RDEK is planning on creating a map that has a five-kilometre radius for each mosquito hotspot to see how many residents and proper-ties are plausibly impacted by a control program.

“It all relates to trying to calcu-late what it would cost per indi-vidual in terms of taxes and there’s a couple ways to go there,” said Gay. “The next step we’re going to do is debrief the meeting with the community leaders, my-self and staff and put this map together and then go back out with the community and talk about the taxation things.

“…People want to know what it’s going to cost—that’s the bot-tom line—but I think they under-stand the effectiveness of it.”

By Blair Qualey

Not only are sales reaching record levels across Canada and BC, the vehicles our members’ customers are buying have never been safer or more environmentally friendly. The choices for consumers, from colour and size to make and

model, are continuously growing and improving, with the design of

new cars and trucks taking the sheer fun of driving to a level not seen in a long time. This boost in sales and choice also has several spinoff benefits beyond profits for companies and great rides for drivers. The auto industry, which includes dealerships and automotive service and supply companies, generates hundreds of jobs and billions of dollars in economic activity each year. At the New Car Dealers Association of BC, we represent more than 360 New Car Dealers in

54 communities throughout the province. These are stable, growing businesses with longlasting economic impacts. According to a recent economic impact study we commissioned, B.C. new car dealerships had total retail sales of nearly $11 billion in 2013, representing about 17 per cent of the total retail sales in the province. About two thirds of the retail sales from our dealerships came from new motor vehicles and the rest from the sales of used cars, parts, accessories and other services. Our dealerships also supported 36,198 full-time equivalent jobs in 2013, which is a seven per cent increase from 2010. What’s more, employees at new car dealers tend to have higher wages and salaries than employees in other retail positions, the report shows. According to the Canadian Automobile Dealers Association, average weekly earnings of B.C. automotive dealership employees were $1,004 in 2013. That’s $461 higher than

average weekly retail earnings in the province. Total expenditures by our members are also estimated to be approximately $9.5 billion in 2013, including spending on items such as salaries and benefits, advertising, insurance and property taxes. And while nobody likes to pay taxes, the report points out that federal and provincial sales taxes paid by customers on vehicles, parts and service, amount to “hundreds of millions of dollars in additional tax revenues.” That’s money that helps to fund our schools, roads and health care system, which benefits everyone in the province and across Canada. Those are just the economic impacts. The auto industry also provides a variety of social benefits across the dozens of communities we serve including business partnerships, training programs for new workers and the creation of visitor and tourism events such as the annual Vancouver

International Auto Show. Our association also sponsors a number of charities, including Special Olympics BC. The New Car Dealers association is the longest continuous sponsor of this organization, having raised more than $4.2 million over the past 30 years. As you can see, your local car dealership has more to offer than just the latest vehicle makes and models. Our members contribute to the health of the local, provincial and national economies, and provide social benefits in large and small communities across the province. I have never been more proud to be a member of the auto industry as I am today and look forward to more great years ahead. Blair Qualey is President and CEO of the New Car Dealers Association of BC. Email him at [email protected].

It’s a great time to be in the automobile business especially here in B.CSpecial Information Supplement

Since 1984, the Foundation has raised morethan $3.6 million for the SOBC. One of themany ways New Car Dealers support SOBCathletes and programs is during the annualVancouver International Auto Show.

This year’s gala will includeawards presentation for the 2013 Salespeopleof the Year and the first-annual CommunityDriver Awards.

The 94th annual Vancouver InternationalAuto Show, which runs from March 25 to 30 atthe Vancouver Convention Centre, is also a greatfamily-friendly opportunity to check out coolnewmodels and concepts for the year ahead.

It’s also a terrific time to be a customer of one of BC’s New Car Dealers

The training will be split into four sessions, so that the whole crew can do it while they are working.

“There was an area representative from CP Rail that came through a couple weeks ago and told us about this train-ing opportunity,” Driver said.

The presenter of the classroom based ses-sions is Dustin Ritter, Hazmat and Emergency Response Officer for CPR, who is also respon-sible for any incidents in the East Kootenay re-gion. The training comes on the heels of a number of significant train de-railments across Canada over the past two years.

“This training is very timely and we appreci-ate that CP Rail is pro-viding the training and the opportunity to cross train with other agencies that have a role in railcar incidents,” says Wayne Price, director of Cran-brook Fire and Emer-gency Services.

Driver noted that the training will include things like effective points of contact, sizing up a derailment scene, car and locomotive

anatomy, shutting down locomotives and secur-ing equipment.

Driver said fire crews have an idea of the types of shipments coming through already, as they have an agreement with CP Rail and the compa-ny provides reports on rail shipments that have come through.

“We don’t have real time numbers on the shipments coming through today and to-morrow, but over the course of time periods they tell us these are the highest quantities of things coming through,” he explained. “So we do have this information. You can base what’s happening in the past to what is happening now. And really, the numbers are so big we’ve got an idea of what is coming through town now.”

Driver said CP Rail did provide it in terms of the top 25 hazardous materials coming through, but the infor-mation is confidential.

“It was released to the fire department so we can prepare, not for industry to find out,” he said.

Submit tedThis week, Nov. 17 to

23, is the final drop-off week across Canada for the Operation Christ-mas Child gift filled show boxes you’ve been packing.

Sunday is the final day for getting your shoebox into a drop-off centre near you.

The big semi-trailer truck that will take all the boxes to the main shipping warehouse in

Calgary will arrive the next day.

Your gift filled shoe-box will then go to a needy child living in one of the poorer coun-tries around the world. (shown on the map).

Please remember to enclose a donation of $7 to help towards the cost of the shipping and handling of your shoe-box,to make sure it gets delivered to a child in need.

Other provincial assets such as highways, forests, parks or land under the control, management or adminis-tration of a Crown corporation are also excluded from compensation under the Act. BC Emergency Health Services is responsible for grants-in-lieu payments for ambulance stations.

Since 2002, the government of Brit-ish Columbia has distributed more than $220 million as grants-in-lieu to B.C. communities. A portion of the funds are paid by each community to its regional district, and both levels of local government use grants to help pay for local services.

This years’ payment from the Min-istry of Technology, Innovation and Citizens’ Services is $1.1 million less than last year’s total of $18.2 million. Melody Wey, from the ministry, said the reduction is attributed to a num-ber of factors including decreases in assessed property values from BC As-sessment, transferring ambulance stations to BC Emergency Health Ser-vices and government no longer hav-ing a presence in some municipalities due to selling or transferring of prop-erty assets.

The funds are distributed electron-ically by the Ministry of Technology, Innovation and Citizens’ Services.

Grants-in-lieu less than last yearContinued from page 1

Operation Christmas Child was started in 1993 by Samaritans Purse and has become the largest children’s charity in the world.

Since then, over 100 million gift filled shoe-

boxes have been collect-ed and delivered to needy kids.

You can drop-off your shoeboxes this week at anyone of the following  locations.

“It’s a case of mind over matter; if you don’t mind it doesn’t matter.”

Jack Benny

“I am unable to do the things that I dream I once could do so incredibly well.” 

Henry Klutz

“Senescence begins and middle age ends the day you descendants outnumber your friends.”

Ogden Nash

Becoming a senior person is not the fun that it was once cracked up to be but, as some wag said recently, it’s

better than the alterna-tive.

The trouble is: we all want to live for ever and ever but are not fond of the “being old” bit. So, being a researcher at heart, I asked around and, after more than a few rebuffs, did get some satisfaction among the insults. Here are some re-sponses to that question: How do you feel about being a person of age? However, I do have some suspicions about the actual sources of some of these quotes so, as Ser-geant Schultz always said in Hogan’s He-roes, “I know nussink.”

Anyway, here we go: Alice W: If you haven’t grown up by the

time you’re fifty, then you don’t have to.John S: I have flushed my bucket list.

The things I wanted so desperately to do years ago sound a tad silly these days.

Jessica Q: When you get to my age it depends what day it is whether you can or can’t do a number of things.

Pamela R: I remember all that I have done in my life and am overjoyed that I’ve accomplished so much, met so many won-derful people, seen so many amazing plac-es and am still around to enjoy life and bask in my warm and fuzzy memories.

Pete W: All the time I was young I was desperate to join a band and go around the country doing gigs, over-nights in ho-

tels, that sort of stuff. I didn’t. I got a regular job so I am now retired with a good pension and medical coverage. Lots of my old friends are still doing a few gigs and, in between, looking for work, any work.

Helen B: I’ve struggled all my life not to be like my

mother but here I am, almost a clone.Archie C: My wife has outwitted me

again; if she wants me to do some chore I hate, she suggests that, maybe, I’m too old to handle it.

Olive O: Honest. I don’t mind being this old. There’s a few pains when I get out of bed then I’m fine till I wash my face. I must stop looking in that bathroom mir-ror.

Malcolm C: They warned me that I’d lose my mind as I grew older. What they didn’t tell me was that I wouldn’t miss it very much.

Paul Q: Naively, I used to believe that, if I managed to grow old without killing my fool self, people would respect me and come to me for advice, to draw on my ac-cumulated knowledge. Well!  They respect me all right. They escort me to chairs, wipe the drool off my chin, pat me on my bald head then head off to consult Google.

Colleen R: I don’t miss riding my horse nor flying down through powder  on my skis. I don’t even miss the days we spent on our yacht. I’m happy because I am still healthy and fit enough to do what I want to do right now.

George C: If, like me, you give up smok-ing and drinking, you don’t live longer; it just seems longer.

Emma P: Just have to keep moving. Can’t have moss growing on my north side.

Mac T: I really wish I had done lots of stupid, adventurous things things. Maybe I did. I should’ve kept a diary.

Henry Q. It’s been a good run for our money but we’re both glad that we elected to live in a First World country. Third world? Been there, done that.

Elizabeth H: I’ve got to that age when the only sport I can manage is hunting for my glasses.

Will the real Koote-nay Ice please stand up?

Forward Austin Vet-terl knows critics around the WHL are skeptical as to which version of the Kootenay Ice is the real one.

The first to surface was a team outscored by a combined margin of 37-12 over a seven-game losing skid stretching Oct. 18 to Oct. 31.

The second team to come to light is in the midst of a five-game winning streak, which began Nov. 1 and has seen the Ice outscore opponents 24-18 along the way.

Vetterl and the Ice put that five-game run on the line, looking to prove doubters wrong, when the Central Divi-sion-leading Medicine Hat Tigers visit Western

Financial Place Wednes-day night.

“It’s a big test. We had a tough start, but now we’re on a five-game win streak,” Vetterl said Tuesday afternoon prior to practice. “Peo-ple are going to say, ‘Are these guys for real or not?’ I think by beating the Medicine Hat Tigers, it would really show that we’re a team that’s up-and-coming and we’re going to make a bang in the conference.”

Coinciding with the renewed edge is the re-turn of captain Sam Re-inhart from the NHL’s Buffalo Sabres.

The 19-year-old na-tive of North Vancouver has tallied 10 points (3G, 7A) since returning to the Kootenay Ice lineup Nov. 7 against the Ed-monton Oil Kings. After a seven-point perfor-mance (1G, 6A) through two contests this past

weekend, the 6-foot-1 pivot was named WHL Player of the Week.

“I’m pretty familiar with the guys I’ve been playing with and they’ve obviously made things easy for me,” Reinhart said Tuesday afternoon. “A lot of [credit] goes out to them.”

Reinhart has spent the bulk of his even-strength time flanked by 20-year-old French sen-sation Tim Bozon and 18-year-old Zak Zbo-rosky, who is on the NHL Central Scouting watch list ahead of the 2015 NHL Entry Draft.

Bozon has been steady of late, posting five points (3G, 2A) in four games since return-ing from injury and suit-ing up alongside Rein-hart. As for Zborosky, the Regina native has tallied two goals and three as-sists in four games since

joining the veterans on Kootenay’s top line.

“With Sam, you not only get a great player, but you get a great leader in the room who every-one can look at and say, ‘We’ve got to follow him and do what he does,’” Vetterl said. “Obviously, he’s a great player and changes the game.”

Vetterl mentioned how Reinhart’s pres-ence has helped shift players around the line-up in ways that provide them greater opportuni-ty for success.

In particular, 19-year-old Luke Philp has rock-eted to the top of the Kootenay Ice scoring charts, rattling off nine points (5G, 4A) over the team’s five-game win-ning streak. Included in that is a four-point per-formance Nov. 14 against the Calgary Hitmen.

Led by 5-foot-9

right-winger Cole San-ford, who is third in league scoring (14G, 17A) heading into the Ti-gers’ Tuesday tilt with the Red Deer Rebels, Medicine Hat will pro-vide a measuring stick of sorts as the Kootenay Ice battle to establish them-selves in the ever-tough WHL Central Division.

“They’re a small, fast team with a good de-fense,” Vetterl said. “We’ve got to limit their forwards. We can’t turn the puck over at their blue line, we’ve got to be physical on them. We’ve got to take away their speed and capitalize on our scoring chances.”

Wednesday marks the first time the two teams will have met since April 16 when the Tigers erased the Ice from the 2014 WHL play-off scene with a 4-1 win in Game 7 of the Eastern

Conference semifinal.“Obviously that’s al-

ways in the back of your mind, but at the same time, it’s a new season,” Vetterl said. “We’ve just got to go out, we’ve got to play the game, play the right way. We can’t look to take cheap shots [because of] last year or anything like that. We want to go out and we just want to get a win.”

A win won’t come easy for Vetterl and the Ice. At 14-4-1-1, the Ti-gers are the class of the Central Division, sitting second in the WHL’s Eastern Conference be-hind the Brandon Wheat Kings (17-4-1-0).

“It’s no question, they’ve had a good start,” Reinhart said. “We’re try-ing to get back on pace with a team like them in the standings. It’s a good

test to see how we play up against them.”

Notes: The Ice will once again be without F Jon Martin (upper body, one week), F Kyle O’Con-nor (lower body, one to two weeks), F Levi Cable (lower body, one to two weeks) and D Tanner Faith (upper body, one to three weeks)…With his goal Nov. 15 at Leth-bridge, Reinhart sur-passed F Steve DaSilva (2004-08) for fourth in franchise goal-scoring. DaSilva tallied 103 goals in 271 games, while Re-inhart has 104 goals in 207 games…Next up, Re-inhart chases F Jarret Stoll (1997-2002) for the Kootenay Ice franchise lead in assists. Stoll tal-lied 162 helpers in 245 games. Reinhart has 160 assists heading into Wednesday night...

NFL suspends Minnesota Vikings RB adrian PetersonDave c ampbellAssociated Press

MINNEAPOLIS - Adrian Peterson’s future with the Minnesota Vi-kings dimmed Tuesday, with the NFL suspend-ing the star running back without pay for at least the rest of the season.

As his representatives initiated an appeal, Pe-terson remained at the centre of an escalating dispute between the NFL and NFL Players As-

sociation over the player discipline process.

Commissioner Roger Goodell told Peterson he will not be considered for reinstatement before April 15 for his violation of the NFL personal con-duct policy - the first ex-ample of a crackdown on players involved with domestic violence.

The NFLPA an-nounced it would imme-diately appeal, calling for

a neutral arbitrator to handle it, and rebuked the league for what it la-beled as inconsistency and unfairness in deter-mining discipline. The NFL’s words were stron-ger, with a nearly 1,600-word statement spelling out the conditions for Peterson’s path to re-turn, describing the rea-sons for the punishment.

Peterson pleaded no contest Nov. 4 to misde-

meanour reckless as-sault for injuries to his 4-year-old son with a wooden switch. He said he intended no harm, only discipline. Peterson was on a special exempt list, essentially paid leave while the case went through the legal system.

The NFLPA said Pe-terson was told that time would count toward a suspension, citing an unidentified NFL execu-

tive. League spokesman Brian McCarthy said the stay on the exempt list was taken into account.

Peterson’s salary for the season was $11.75 million. He will keep the money accrued while on the exempt list. The NFL’s punishment has amounted to a 14-game ban, with six unpaid weeks equivalent of a fine of more than $4.1 million.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Your initial reaction to a situa-tion could be anger or frustra-tion. Reach out to a creative per-son who loves swapping ideas with you. You might discover that the two of you are capable of solving the world’s problems! Tonight: Favorite person, favor-ite place. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You might have to justify your reaction to an emotional in-quiry. Remain centered in a discussion involving a matter in your daily life. Please note what makes you happy, and base more of what you do on creating greater contentment. Tonight: Have a long-overdue chat. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You could be trying to avoid a conflict with a loved one; how-ever, this might be impossible, as this person seems to be on the warpath. Once the air is cleared, you will feel much better. Be careful about accepting any more responsibilities. Tonight: Kick back and relax.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) You could be more irritated about a personal matter than you realize. In fact, you might have a very strong reaction to a call from someone involved. Choose your words with care, or wait until you feel you can have a reasonable conversation. Tonight: Be a flirt. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Someone will take you at your word, and might not realize how upset you are about a situation. Try to root out the cause of this frustration. The good news is that you are likely to get the issue straightened out sooner rather than later. Tonight: Meet friends for some drinks. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) A risk could have greater rami-fications than what you’ll want to deal with. Understand what is happening with a loved one, as he or she might need more of your attention or caring. Make time for this person. Tonight: Reach out to a friend you rarely have time to chat with. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You inadvertently could irritate

a family member, especially if you are in the process of negoti-ating a matter related to proper-ty. Your determination likely will work in your favor, but you can still expect to hit a snafu. Try not to be so tough on this person. Tonight: Indulge a little. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You could be out of sorts yet de-termined to have your way. As a result, you could isolate yourself for a good part of the day. It is unclear whether you will gain any ground right now. Schedule a massage instead. Tonight: Nap, and you’ll wake up with a smile. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) A long-term goal could cost you more than you might expect. You are unlikely to say anything right away, as you’ll detach to see the problem in a different light. You could be drawn in to a highly volatile discussion; choose your words with care. Tonight: Stay close to home. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Lately it seems as if you have been unusually volatile and touchy. A boss could trigger a new level of frustration. Deal

with this person on a one-on-one level with the understand-ing that he or she might have little to do with the matter at hand. Tonight: Join friends! AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You suddenly might decide to cancel a trip. You could be sitting on a lot of unexpressed anger and not be aware of it. You will soon, though. If you can get to the root of the problem, you will facilitate your life and others’ lives too. Tonight: Only where there is music. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You might want to keep a con-versation you have had with a loved one to yourself for now and not share it with someone else it involves. In this situa-tion, it is important to realize that some things are better left unsaid. Sympathize, but don’t take sides! Tonight: Try a new pastime. BORN TODAY Fashion designer Calvin Klein (1942), TV host Larry King (1933), actress Meg Ryan (1961) ***

Dear Annie: You recently printed a let-ter from a woman who asked whether her biological daughter could be a sociopath. Could you please list the characteristics of a sociopath in your column? Our adult daughter is involved with some-one we feel is not good for her. She seems to be oblivious to what is going on and prob-ably will not recognize the signs, but if you could raise awareness, maybe it will prevent someone else from having to go through what our family is going through now. -- Learning Experience Dear Learning: According to material from the National Institutes of Health: Sociopa-thology, also known as antisocial person-ality disorder, is a mental health condition in which a person has a long-term pattern of manipulating, exploiting or violating the rights of others. Genetic factors and envi-ronmental factors, such as child abuse, are believed to contribute to the development of this condition. People with an antisocial or alcoholic parent are at increased risk. Fire-setting and cruelty to animals during childhood are linked to the development of antisocial personality. Symptoms include: being able to act wit-ty and charming; being good at flattery and manipulating other people’s emotions; breaking the law repeatedly; disregarding the safety of self and others; having prob-lems with substance abuse; lying, stealing and fighting often; not showing guilt or re-morse; often being angry or arrogant. Dear Annie: With the holidays approach-ing, how can a host encourage interaction with guests without being rude about cell-phones? I recently attended a party where I knew few people. I spoke with the hostess when she wasn’t busy and later found another woman with whom I had some common in-terests. I tried to engage some of the young-er children in a game, but they were glued to their iPods. Other female guests were on their cellphones. I finally found two men in the garage who were not on their cell-phones. If I were the host, I’d get the impression that my guests think I’m dull and only came to eat the food I worked hard to prepare. People put up no-smoking signs in their homes. Is it out of line to ask guests to check their phones at the door or put them away in their purses or coat pockets until they leave? Am I the only one who is offended by this behavior? -- In a Fog in Kentucky Dear Fog: Hardly. People are addicted to their cellphones. The constant beeping and vibrations encourage them to check the screen every few seconds. It is perfectly OK for you to announce politely that you’d appreciate it if guests would turn off their phones or set them on silent and leave them in their purses or pockets. Some may even comply. Dear Annie: “Grieving in Iowa” said he lost his life partner of 33 years and his partner’s sister lashed out at him. It’s amazing to me how these stressful situations bring out the worst in people. My husband and I had been together for five years when I found out how much his family disliked me. I was always a little un-comfortable around them, but after a sud-den illness, I was cornered in a hospital room and accused of being a “gold digger,” and if the family had their way, I would be kicked to the curb. Fortunately, my husband and I are committed to each other despite what his family says or thinks. I tried to get along with those who were the most hurtful, but it became too difficult to walk on eggshells, always watching what I said so it couldn’t be misconstrued. I went to counseling and learned that it’s OK to give up on toxic people who make it their life’s mission to find fault with others. My husband and I have thrived without them. -- Happier Now Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitch-ell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Pauline Beresford Gold(nee Thomas)

April 27, 1922 - October 27, 2014

Pauline passed away peacefully in Cranbrook, BC at the age of 92 after living a life devoted to her family and friends. Pauline was born in Calgary, AB and moved to Kimberley as a young girl. She gathered special friends as she

followed her husband from Kimberley to Tulsequah, HB Mine, Riondel, Port McNeill, Trail, Elkford, and Cranbrook, always keeping the philosophy to try her best every day, regardless of life’s hurdles. She took pride in making the most of the places she lived at by staying healthy, maintaining her home and garden. Her greatest joy of all was her family, whom she loved to talk about with her friends, and wonderful caregivers at Joseph Creek. She enjoyed staying current with the news and the changing events of the world. Occasions with family and friends were deeply treasured and talked about for years. She loved to keep her family current, and would take any opportunity to have fun, tell stories, and fill the room with laughter.

She is survived by her children: Greg (June) Gold, Jeff (Joan) Gold, Jill (Greg) Lee, Rob (Lisa) Gold; eleven grandchildren: Christy, Ross, Ryan, Nicole, Jenny, Scott, Erin, Holly, Lorraine, David, and Thomas; and ten great grandchildren. She was predeceased by her husband of 69 years David Gold, their daughter Diana Lee Gold, and all of her siblings: Thelma Goosney, Vivian Thomas, Eileen Donald, and Norman Thomas.

Gone but not forgotten. An inspiration to us all!

A memorial service for Pauline will be held on Saturday, November 22, 2014 at the All Saints Anglican Church in Kimberley at 3:00 pm.

Arrangements entrusted to McPherson Funeral Service. Condolences for the family can be offered at:

Top Ten Reasons to Advertise in a Newspaper

1. Advertise to Reach New Customers.Your market changes constantly. Advertising is tremendously helpful in directing customers to the product and services they need, and helps put you ahead of your competition.

2. Your Competition Isn’t Quitting.You’ve got to advertise to get your share of business or lose it to the stores that do. If you cut back on your advertising, you may forfeit new prospective customers to your competition.

3. Advantage Over Competitors Who Cut Back.A five year survey of more than 3,000 companies found that advertisers who maintained or expanded advertising during a troubled economy saw sales increase an average of 100%.

4. Continuous Advertising Strengthens Your Image.When people who postpone buying come back to the marketplace, you’ve got a better chance of getting their business if you’ve continued to maintain a solid, reliable image.

5. Direct Advertising is Cost Efficient.Direct has the advantages – demographic and geographic numbers to afford advertisers the best value and exposure for their advertising dollar.

6. Advertise to Generate Traffic.Continuous traffic is the first step toward sales increases and expanding your base of buyers. The more people who contact you, the more possibilities you have to make sales.

7. Advertise to Make More Sales.Advertising works! Businesses that succeed are usually strong, steady advertisers. Look around. You’ll find the most aggressive and consistent advertisers are almost invariably the most successful.

8. Advertise Because There is Always Business to Generate.Salespeople are on the payroll. As long as you’re in business, you have overhead and you’ve got to advertise to generate a steady cash flow.

9. Advertise to Keep a Healthy Positive Image.In a troubled economy, rumors and bad news travel fast. Advertising corrects gossip, shoots down false reports and projects positively.

10. Advertise to Maintain Employee Morale.When advertising and promotion are cut, salespeople become less motivated. They may believe the store is cutting back, even going out of business.

Want to reach new customers? We read the newspaper every day, Monday to Friday.

Here's a bit of a mock up ad that I'd like to use for the Nov/December ads. I'm also attaching the flat sheet ad that i'd like to keep the newspaper ad somewhat consistent with…it also shows the content goes into the circles.Let me know if you have any questions.
