with smaller cars

SAYWHAT...Never have more children than you

have car windows.”—Erma Bombeck

DETROIT (NY Times) — After years of being out-gunned by Japanese rivals, the American auto indus-try has made small cars a central part of its strategy, seeking to capitalize on a fundamental shift in the pref-erences of consumers in an era of fast-rising gas prices.

By refocusing on small cars and de-emphasizing the gas-guzzlers that had long sustained the industry, General Motors and Ford in particular are preserving jobs and positioning themselves to prosper. Their efforts are already paying off in the mar-ketplace. Ford’s tiny Fiesta is the best-selling subcompact in the United States this year, and G.M.’s Chevrolet Cruze outsold every other compact car in America last month except the segment-leading Honda Civic. Nearly one in four vehicles sold in the United States in April was a compact or subcompact car, compared with one in eight a decade ago. Of the small cars sold in April, about 27 percent were American models, compared with 20 percent a year earlier. Data on sales in May will be released on Wednesday.

“There is a less-is-more mentality,” said Jeremy Anwyl, chief executive of the auto research site Edmunds.com. “The market demand and receptivity for these vehicles just didn’t exist four or fi ve years ago.”

JOPLIN, Mo. (NY Times) — A week ago the Missouri Southern State University campus here was rich with celebration and smiles as the grad-uating seniors of the public high school paraded across stage to grasp their diplomas. Within hours, a third of the town was destroyed — includ-ing Joplin High School — and scores of residents were dead, at least one of the newly minted grad-uates among them.

On Sunday, the campus was fi lled with the grief of a community that for the fi rst time paused from

its digging to take collective note of what had been lost when a tornado of record proportions in car-nage upended the heart of the city.

There was the Rev. Aaron Brown, the pastor of St. Paul’s United Methodist Church, now a skel-etal house of worship stripped of walls and ceil-ing, who talked about his memories of the frantic aftermath: running and digging and hoping and praying. There was Jay Nixon, the governor of Missouri, speaking of the “destructive power of nature and the invincible power of faith.”

SANA, Yemen (NY Times) — As Islamist militants were con-solidating control over a second city in southern Yemen, seiz-ing banks, government offi ces and the security headquar-ters, news agencies reported on Monday that the Yemeni air force was responding with bombing runs.

Residents in the coastal city

of Zinjibar told news agencies that they had seen warplanes dropping bombs in an effort to dislodge the militants and that the army had begun artillery shelling.

The fall of Zinjibar to self-styled holy warriors who claimed to have “liberated” it from “the agents of the Ameri-cans” fed into Western fears

that militants sympathetic to Al Qaeda could exploit the breakdown of authority to take control of territory.

Political opponents of Yemen’s embattled president, Ali Abdullah Saleh, portrayed the takeover as a ploy by Mr. Saleh to prove to wavering allies why they needed to keep him in power.

Serb fugitive slowly starved of friends, cash

BELGRADE, Serbia (NY Times) — The arrest of war crimes fugi-tive Ratko Mladic, found hiding inside a darkened house in a Serbian village last week, came from methodically pressuring his waning network of supporters and draining his fi nancial lifeline so thoroughly that his most bitter complaint when captured was a demand for his frozen military pen-sion of 140 euros a month, accord-ing to investigators in Serbia.

Critical questions remain about precisely who protected Mladic. The pro-Western government of President Boris Tadic says it will investigate, a politically delicate examination that could lead to former government offi cials and perhaps even to religious authori-ties, since Mladic said after his arrest that he had been visited over the years by many priests.

Mladic’s demand for his pension — frozen in 2005 while he was on the run — refl ected a calculated strategy by investigators to sever his ties with friends, supporters and cash in order to reduce his options for hiding, Vekaric said.

LACONIA — Authorities have spent months planning for when up to 2,000 Hells Angels members will descend on Laconia for an interna-tional gathering in late July.

“We have to plan for the worst, and everyone hopes it goes off without a hitch,” Laconia Police Chief Mike Moyer said last week.

The chief called a similar World Run event in Laconia in 2003 “very low key,” and he was planning to have fewer police offi cers on duty this time around.

U.S. Attorney John Kacavas, who has made cracking down on outlaw motorcycle clubs a top priority, said, “We’re always concerned about a crowd of that size.

“I’m not sure that there will be fewer law enforcement individuals this time around,” Kacavas said. “We’re going to see how Bike Week goes (June 11 to 18 in Laconia). I think that’s going to defi ne a lot of what our response is going to be for World Run.”

P. Scott Bratton, the legal represen-tative for the Hells Angels, said the event will take place on several acres of property that contains the Hells Angels’ clubhouse on Fillmore Avenue and should draw 2,000 members.

“The last time the World Run was held in Laconia, there were very few problems,” he said. “No problems are anticipated this year.”

Bratton expects the event will include live bands. “The Hells Angels provide their own security for their own people,” he said.

Kacavas said authorities have been working to better tackle outlaw biker clubs, the “1 percenters” of motorcy-cle riders who are involved in illegal activities. He said authorities track increases in drug activity and violent crimes, but he declined to share statis-tics. He also declined to say how many Hells Angels members live in New Hampshire.

According to a federal report titled the 2009 National Gang Threat Assessment, the Hells Angels Motor-cycle Club had between 2,000 and 2,500 members belonging to more

than 250 chapters in the United States and 26 foreign countries. Of that number, a total of 900 to 950 members belonged to more than 69 chapters in 22 states.

“HAMC poses a criminal threat on six continents,” said the report, released by the National Gang Intelligence Center and the National Drug Intelli-gence Center. The club produces, trans-ports and distributes illegal drugs and is involved in other criminal activity, including assault, extortion, homicide, money laundering and motorcycle theft, according to the report.

Bratton took issue with authorities.“They’re a fraternal organiza-

tion devoted to the Harley-Davidson motorcycle riding, and that’s the center of what gravitates them toward each other is their involvement in Harley-Davidson motorcycles,” he said. “We take strong exception to them being classifi ed as a gang. They’re a motor-cycle club, not a gang.”

Eddie Edwards, chief of enforce-ment and licensing in the state Divi-sion of Liquor Enforcement, said more people holding liquor licenses are contacting police to sound off against outlaw bikers.

“We’ve seen a signifi cant increase in the number of complaints from licens-ees themselves and patrons themselves about motorcycle gang activity,” he said.

“Some of it has been intimida-tion. Some of it has been assaults on licensee establishments.

“We’ve had some owners complain about being muscled that way or fear-ful of property damage or retaliation. Of course it has a negative impact on their business.”

The commission, meanwhile, has an open case on a brawl allegedly among motorcycle club members at Luigi’s Pizza Bar & Grille in Manchester in April 2010.

According to authorities, seven men were charged with riot. Five men had alleged affi liations in some fashion with the Hells Angels and two with another club, the Outlaws.

It’s Time For NH’s Wood-Fired Power Plants To Stop Fighting Berlin BioPower

In the interest of Berlin and the entire North Country, it’s time for New Hamp-shire’s Wood-Fired IPPs (Bridgewater Power, Pinetree Power Tamworth and Bethlehem, Springfi eld Power, Whitefi eld Power & Light, and Indeck-Energy Alexandria) to lay down their arms and stop blocking the Berlin Bio-Power biomass plant from moving forward and creating clean energy and good jobs.

The wood-fi red IPPs have fought this proj-ect at every level, and their concerns have been heard and addressed. They have made their arguments and state regulatory offi cials have required signifi cant project changes based on their input. As of this writing, the PUC has granted conditional approval to Public Service Company of New Hampshire’s power purchase agreement with Berlin Bio-Power, and PSNH has agreed to the PUC’s required modifi cations. It’s time for the Wood-Fired IPPS to put their competitive interests aside and do the right thing for New Hamp-shire and our North Country. They should withdraw their Motions for a Rehearing at the PUC so Berlin BioPower can proceed, and create good jobs and true economic activity for Berlin, Coos County and all surrounding communities.

The Wood-Fired IPPs’ fi ght against Berlin BioPower is self-serving and hypocritical. As a group, these smaller biomass power plants have aggressively lobbied New Hampshire political and economic development leaders to force PSNH into buying their power, to save their own plants and preserve jobs. At the same time they are asking for the state’s help, they are trying to stop Berlin BioPower and prevent it from creating jobs and stimu-lating the Berlin economy. This is not right, and it’s not the New Hampshire way. Jobs in Berlin are critically important too, just as important as jobs in Bridgewater, Alexan-dria, Tamworth, Bethlehem, Whitefi eld and Springfi eld. More to the point, Berlin Bio-Power isn’t jeopardizing jobs at these smaller plants. They are in trouble already for a whole host of reasons unrelated to Berlin BioPower.

We suspect the Wood-Fired IPPs’ large, out-of-state and foreign owners - such as France’s GDZ Suez (Pinetree Power Tamworth and

Bethlehem), Korea East-West Power Com-pany (Whitefi eld Power & Light, Spring-fi eld Power), Illinois’ Indeck Energy Services (Indeck Alexandria), and New Jersey’s Public Service Enterprise Group (Bridgewater Power) – are more concerned with corpo-rate profi ts than the people of Berlin. But holding our community hostage by opposing Berlin BioPower as a negotiating tactic to get a deal with PSNH is unconscionable.

Berlin BioPower and many others, includ-ing our company, support all efforts to keep these smaller biomass plants running. In fact, Berlin BioPower has gone the extra step of trying to help these plants reach new deals with PSNH. They return the favor by trying to stop Berlin’s project?

Berlin BioPower is a $275 million project in the heart of our wood country, a region that desperately needs jobs and an economic boost. The project would create 400 construc-tion jobs and 40 good-paying, permanent jobs at the biomass plant. It would also inject more than $25 million annually into New Hampshire’s economy to support foresters, loggers, and haulers that will produce Berlin BioPower’s woodchip fuel.

Berlin BioPower will be a rising tide that will lift all boats within the forest industry. It will also stimulate Berlin’s economy in many direct and indirect ways. Hundreds of construction workers will need places to eat lunch, get groceries, buy gas and spend their hard-earned money in other ways. Berlin BioPower has made commitments to hire locally, during construction and after. In addition, the biomass plant will build Berlin a Riverwalk along the Androscoggin, a new ATV/snowmobile trail, and a new community parking lot. It will also offer thermal heat at no cost to companies willing to co-locate

It’s time for the Wood-Fired IPPs to do what’s right for Berlin and all of New Hamp-shire. Stop jeopardizing new jobs and eco-nomic activity. Withdraw opposition at the PUC and support Berlin BioPower moving forward.

New Hampshire projects should use New Hampshire workersTo the editor:My Name is William McCullough. I am an

ironworker with 32 yrs experience in my indus-try. I am a taxpayer in the town of Stark, where I have owned a home for six years. The North Country is made up of small communities where folks still look out for each other. As a small community, miles away from large indus-try, we rely heavily on the few industries that call our community home. Lately, we have been let down by these industries.

We all remember the promises that the fed-

eral prison project made. They were going to hire local New Hampshire people to build their facility. I was lucky enough to get in on a rela-tively small portion of that project, but what I saw there shocked me. With so many of my friends, neighbors and fellow ironworkers out of work, I could not believe the amount of out of state workers brought in to build that prison. I saw folks from Florida, Maine, Massachusetts, Vermont, North Carolina, Virginia, Arizona, Kentucky, Tennessee, Mississippi, Arizona, Illi

Letter carrier food drive was a successTo the editor:The Letter Carrier Food

Drive held on May 14, was a great success, collecting 9,472 pounds with the poten-tial of reaching 9,522 after post offi ce lobbies are cleared from items that are donated late. The people in our local communities came shinning through, on this overcast day. In response to this drive and all city and rural letter car-riers, along with post offi ce and volunteers thank you. For many people who are retired, on a fi xed income, or not working, this collection will help them get through another day.

The letter carriers, United Way of Northern New Hampshire and volunteers helped to organize this event 17 years ago as part of the nation-wide event to “Stamp out Hunger” in our commu-nities. We have experienced a successful drive every year since.

This year the complete cost of the event was paid for by AutoNorth Pre-Owned SuperStore and Service Center; they provided water, sodas and also partnered with Valley Creek Eatery in providing their excellent “Wrap Sandwiches” to feed everyone who worked during the food drive. AutoNorth’s donation also assisted in paying for the printing, fl iers and bag stuffers announc-ing the food drive through-out our Androscoggin Valley communities. We are grate-ful for their generosity.

Letter and rural carri-ers spent the day delivering your mail and collecting your donations. Their tireless efforts resulted in the collec-

tion food and personal care items that were transported to the Saint Joseph’s Church building (Catholic Charities) which served as the sorting location. Volunteers sorted the food into groups for Tri-County (CAP), the Ecu-menical Food Pantry, the Sal-vation Army and Response’s “My Friends Place” shelter.

A big thank you to the Ber-nard Balon and Mike Dupont from the CAP agency, Don Baillargeon and Paul Cro-teau from the United Way, who all transported the items from some of the mail trucks along their routes to the collection center where they also assisted in sorting the food. Other volunteers who sorted the food were: Jeannette Boucher, Betty and Bill Fuller, Ron and Linda Goyette all from the United Way. Roger Poulin and Donald Ducette from CAP. Tammy Fauteux from Berlin Jr. High. Cody Fau-teux from BHS National Honor Society. Cory Fauteux from BJHS National Junior Honor Society, volunteers Diane Lambert and Rick Baillargeon, John Homer from Harvest Church. Joan Couture from St. Vincent Food Bank. Nicole Bell from Community Service. And Aarron Dupuis.

Thank you once again to IGA management for Debbie and Jason’s time and effort to make sure we had enough banana boxes, the IGA Food-liner has faithfully assisted us in this important effort for the past 18 years. And thank you Debbie and Jason for helping me eat all those bananas. Thank you to A&B

I am sick of being walked on by these out of state contractors. If New Hampshire is where they want to build, then it should be New Hamp-shire people hired to do the work.

RMT’s claim that the wind turbine project requires specialty workers is a cop out. We have the skilled workforce to erect those turbines. In fact we have over 250 ironwork-ers who have completed three year apprenticeships that cover every

specialized aspect of wind turbine erection. The Lempster wind farm and the turbine at the Grand Moun-tain View Resort were both erected without incident by local workers. If RMT doesn’t think we’re good enough to work for them, maybe we should ask if they are good enough to be here.

Let’s not allow what happened at the prison to ever happen again. RMT and Brookfi eld Renewable Power, this isn’t how we treat our neighbors in New Hampshire.

Demers honored for outstanding achievement at Trinity College

HARTFORD, CONN. -- The Trinity College Chapel served as the site for the school’s 61st annual Honors Day Ceremony in which nearly 230 people were cited for their scholarly and com-munity-oriented achievements. The honorees were presented with a broad array of prizes and awards for their contributions and accomplishments over their years at Trinity.

Kayla L Demers of Randolph, Class of 2012, won the The Rosamond M. Mancall Prize. The Rosamond M. Mancall Prize, established in 1991 by family and friends in memory of Rosa-

mond M. Mancall IDP 3, is awarded annually to an outstanding member of the junior class who is an American studies major.

The ceremony originated when George Keith Funston, who served as Trinity College President from 1945 to 1951, sought to re-establish the school’s academic pageantry, which had been halted during World War II.

Matriculation and the Book Cer-emony for fi rst-year students were restored, and in the spring of 1950, Honors Day was added as a new event.

Join Parents for Playgrounds in restoring Brown School playground

BERLIN -- The Brown Elementary School playground was built in 1990 and after so many years of wear and tear, the wooden structure is in des-perate need.

Parents for Playgrounds with stu-dents, parents and faculty are work-ing to raise money over the next year to replace the playground that is fall-ing apart. The concern and conversa-tion was sparked by the after school program after fi lming a video of chil-dren highlighting the broken tire swing, moving parts that no longer work and rotting wood was posted on Facebook.

Throughout the school year, chil-dren come in from recess with parts of the wooden structure that have fallen off, many time areas have to be blocked off until repaired. The original moving parts like the balance beam and bouncy bridge no longer move because the pea stones below the structure have moved.

According to school principal, Amy Huter, “The number of injuries of splinters and scrapes is constant, and the rotting wood is a hazard.”

She explained that for the fi rst ten years the city helped maintain the

Parents for Playgrounds has launched an effort to raise money to restore the Brown School play-ground and is asking for the public’s help.see PLAYGROUND page 11

wooden structure, but now it is just deteriorating. Teachers are worried about the next thing that will break and that a child could get hurt. Despite its condition, children love it and make the best out of their playtime everyday. New paint on the blacktop and a pint sized ball court is planned in the next coming months. Brown School supports Berlin’s Kindergarten, First and Second grades, and needs new safe playground equipment badly!

A Parents for Playgrounds planning meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, May

31, at 3:30 p.m. at Brown School for anyone inter-ested in working on planning and fundraising efforts for replacing the structure. Students, parents and anyone who supports this cause should feel free to attend.

Parents for Playgrounds hopes to pursue grant money and explore other fundraising ideas. Dona-tions can be made to Brown School Playground Fund. Find Brown School Playground on Facebook to stay informed.

Students participating were: (l-r) Hannah Tremaine, Ariel Bennett, Rachel Sturtevant, Riley Vallieres and Liz Jackson.

GORHAM -- Once again, the fourth and fifth grade students at Edward Fenn Elementary School were fortunate enough to have a visit by Chef Liz Jackson to end their yearlong nutri-tion classes. Over the course of an hour, Jackson explained to the students how small changes in their diet, such as adding fiber and fresh fruits and decreasing their intake of sugar and processed foods can make a big difference and still be delicious. She then proceeded to work with them and make four breakfast foods that were quickly eaten by each class. The children enjoyed the entire process and asked her back next year. Jackson was a “hands on” teacher, assisting each group with their projects and stressing safety and hygiene along the way.

Jackson is a graduate of the Cambridge School of Culinary Arts. She has worked with and for many great chefs, both in the US and interna-tionally and was part of the ground breaking television series “Cooking with Julia” featur-ing Chef Julia Child. These programs went on to inspire the creation of the Food Network. Jackson and her husband Steve own and oper-ate Libby’s Bistro, SAALT Pub and their latest venture, Jackson’s General, a general store fea-turing fresh fruit and vegetables as well as food from the Bistro, all located on Main Street in Gorham.

HOROSCOPE By Holiday Mathis

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Over the course of a day, the job before you goes from being pleasant to tolerable to tedious. To avoid turning into a grump, take some time to play. Get in a few good belly laughs, and your optimism returns. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Exer-cise helps you blow off steam. When you return to the day’s work, you’ll manage your frustration level better and remain in control of even the tricki-est situation. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Some-one is doing what you want to do in a way you hadn’t thought of until this living example revealed itself to you. You’ll be emboldened by what you learn. CANCER (June 22-July 22). As the fi rst water sign of the zodiac, you have a tendency to let your emotions steam, boil, fl ow or freeze according to the cli-mate around you. Today the hand that guides the thermostat is yours. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Sometimes work can be a grind, but today you’ll get paid to do something you love, and the exchange deserves some kind of celebration. Remember when this was all a faraway dream to you. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Over-thinking is a danger now, so make a plan, and then move through it quickly and with certainty. Leave no room for doubt, and your interaction will be graceful. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You will get rid of the attitudes that are holding you back. A ritual will help you make this a lasting change. Something ordi-nary, like washing your hair, will have spiritual signifi cance. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You

are vulnerable to critical people now. But not all criticism is negative. In fact, you’ll probably hear the specifi c words you need to know in order to make immense improvements to your work. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You socialize for fun, but you also see it as a job, which it is. Deals will get made during happy hour. You may be smil-ing and laid-back, but you’re out there promoting your business at the same time. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Others want to know your secret, but it’s not something you can share. This is mostly because it comes so naturally to you that you don’t know how you do it. You simply know how to make people happy. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’ll do some work on your image, making certain enhancements that keep you intriguing and appealing. This might include updating your technical skills. Image is, after all, more than skin deep. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). There are so many people who are trying to do what you already do so well. You really are doing the world a disservice unless you share what you know. In your heart, you are a teacher. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (May 31). Your domestic needs will coincide nicely with other aspirations. You will attract sup-portive people and also competitors who push you to be your best. There is some restlessness around July, and you’re likely to take off on spur-of-the-moment adventures. Unlikely partner-ships are featured in August. Invest in October. Cancer and Leo people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 38,14, 30, 5 and 1.

DEAR ABBY: My wife is a wonderful woman who did a great job of rearing our large family, but our house was often too cluttered to suit my mother who, in those years, was judg-mental and critical of my wife. Years later, things have changed. My father passed away, the kids are grown and gone, and my mother is growing more lonely and needy every day. She now wants to spend time with us, but because she never developed a close friendship with my wife, my wife tolerates her but doesn’t welcome her. I love them both, but I’m becoming frustrated having to constantly choose and juggle schedules so I can keep Mom’s feelings from getting hurt. Abby, please tell mothers-in-law to build bridges while they can. Someday it may be too late. But any advice for me? -- SPREAD THIN IN OKLAHOMA DEAR SPREAD THIN: Your cautionary tale deserves space in my column. When your wife joined the family, instead of building bridges, your mother dynamited them. It’s not sur-prising your wife feels the way she does at the prospect of spending time with her mother-in-law. Of course, while some degree of compromise is necessary, your mother should also be encouraged to fi nd activities and contemporaries whose company she can enjoy without expecting you to entertain her. And the person to do that is you. DEAR ABBY: I’m a woman in my mid-40s. Over the years I have diligently exercised, eaten right and taken good care of my skin. I keep my hairstyle and clothing up-to-date. I am constantly taken to be much younger than I am. While

some of my peers may be jealous of this “problem,” I fi nd it extremely annoying. It’s especially bothersome in a business situation when someone my age or slightly older treats me as though he/she could be my parent. I am not inclined to broadcast my age. Is there a profes-sional way to deal with their condescending attitude? -- LOOKS YOUNGER, BUT ISN’T DEAR LOOKS YOUNGER: Yes. First, take the chip off your shoulder. Then recognize that your colleagues may not be condescending; they may be trying to be helpful. Accept the suggestions they offer without becoming defensive. The more of themselves these “mentors” invest in you, the hap-pier they’ll be about your successes. DEAR ABBY: My husband of almost a year and I have dis-covered a great technique to avoid screaming at each other in an argument. When we get aggravated with each other, one of us goes to the refrigerator, takes out one of our favorite candy bars (we keep a supply in there) and we split it. By the time we’re done eating the candy, we can calmly discuss our disagreement. This helps because we literally take a break from the situ-ation and share a mutual joy. It works because we both love chocolate so much. We wanted to share this solution with your readers. -- SWEET TOOTH IN ANGLETON, TEXAS DEAR SWEET TOOTH: Ingenious. The two of you have discovered yet another reason why chocolate is good for the heart. I hope as time goes by you’ll sustain a high level of compatibility because otherwise you’re going to weigh a ton.

The relocated and renovated Trickey Barn is now a library.

JACKSON — The new life of an old barn was cel-ebrated Saturday with the grand opening ceremonies for the new Jackson Public Library.

The library is housed in the relocated and renovated Trickey Barn next to the Jackson town offi ces on the town-owned, old Gray’s Inn property.

The main speaker was timber framer Curtis Milton of Intervale.

“He took the Trickey Barn timber frame and turned it into the handsome facility we see today,” said Sam Harding, co-chair of the building and fund-raising committee and treasurer of Friends of Jackson Public Library.

Harding said the project has been one of the most enjoyable and worthwhile he has ever been part of.

“I think it has come out extraordinarily beautiful,” said Harding, a retired teacher from the Lawrenceville School of New Jersey, who has been a resident with his wife Betsy of Jackson since 2001. “It has been very well-received by the public.”

Saturday’s events were the latest in a series of cel-ebrations marking the historic barn’s transformation.

On Veterans Day in November 2009, the community gathered to mark the once and future uses of the 19th-century building, as its reassembled ribs took shape against the blue fall skies in the day’s topping off cer-emony.

On Dec. 7, 2010, the library held a soft opening, as Nov. 20 marked the last day of operation at the old 1901-built Emerson building.

That former library measured 700 square feet, 1,000 volumes — and no running water. The new library, by contrast, measures 3,800 square feet, has 10,000 volumes — and a kitchenette, an elevator, two handi-capped-accessible bathrooms, eight computer stations (four downstairs and four upstairs), and several easy chairs that makes for comfortable reading.

“You can even come in for a cup of coffee,” beams Harding.

Part of the charm of the renovated structure are the rustic timber beams — several of the beams fea-ture various miniature animals, airplanes and other objects mischievously hidden by the library staff as well as by Michael Weeder and his crew of Tamrack Construction of Jackson, the general contractors for the project.

“Susan Dunker-Bendigo, the library director, and her staff hand out a sheet to patrons of all ages for the library’s ‘Artifact Scavenger Hunt’ — no one to date has found all 28,” laughed Harding.

The original front sliding door from the Trickey Barn now frames the door of the elevator on the Mez-zanine fl oor upstairs. The door contains carved initials of former owners of the barn and employees of the Jackson Falls House.

The Trickey Barn formerly stood where the Whitney Community Center now stands behind the Jackson Falls Marketplace, home of the Jackson Post Offi ce. That complex stands on the site of the former Jackson Falls House.

AV F & G Assoc. holds women’s fi rearm familarization program

MILAN --On Saturday, May 14, thirteen women from the area completed the fourth annual Androscoggin Valley Fish & Game Association’s Women’s Firearms Familiarization Program at the association’s range in Milan. This program is designed for women who have little or no experience with the handling or use of a fire-arm. The morning’s classroom session was held outdoors under cloudy skies and rain intruded on the afternoon’s live fire session. Despite this inconvenience, com-ments written in their evaluation of the day’s program indicated the participants felt that the program was very informative and a lot of fun. One woman thanked the asso-ciation for providing the program, volunteers and the different guns to shoot. She went on to say; “it’s a wonderful way to educate women in the community on gun safety.” Another commented on the “relaxed comical presentation.”

The over two hour morning ses-sion was devoted to an explanation and demonstration, using actual firearms, of the different types of actions; break, bolt, pump, lever and semi-automatic, and how they work, including safety features, sights, and the differences between rifles, shotguns and handguns. The program included a discussion of shooting skills, covering topics such as determining your dominant eye, various shooting positions and the

six ways to safely carry a firearm. Safe handling of a firearm was stressed throughout the program.

The over three hour afternoon live fire session was divided into two parts. The first part consisted of firing 22 rifles and handguns at targets from one of ten bench stations. Each bench station con-tained a different twenty-two action type and was supervised by an instructor who offered assis-tance when requested by the par-ticipant. Through the generosity of members of the board of direc-tors a wide variety of 22 rifle and handguns were available and cov-ered almost all the various types of firearm actions. The participants were divided up into two women teams and each team was rotated between the ten stations. Five shot strings were fired at the tar-gets until every participant had an opportunity to try all the actions available.

The second part of the afternoon’s session was devoted to firing 12 gauge shotguns at the range’s trap facility. Each participant, under the direction of an instructor, fired at clay targets from the various positions on the trap field. After the initial round participants, who wished to, were encouraged to take additional turns at the clay targets.

The association is looking for-ward to the fifth year of the pro-gram that is tentatively scheduled for a Saturday in May, 2012.

Four hikers rescued after being caught by darkness on Mt. Washingon

LANCASTER, N.H. -- On the eve-ning of Sunday, May 22, 2011, Conserva-tion Offi cers from the New Hampshire Fish and Game Department assisted four hikers in safely making their way out of the woods after being caught by darkness on the Jewell Trail in Thomp-son and Meserve’s Purchase. Justin Greenough, age 33, of Dover, N.H., called 911 via cell phone at approxi-mately 9:15 p.m. after darkness forced him and a hiking companion to com-pletely stop due to their inability to see the trail. Although the hikers had food, water and extra clothing, they did not have lights, forcing them to wait for help to arrive.

Conservation Offi -cer Lieutenant Douglas Gralenski and Conserva-tion Offi cer Matt Holmes of the New Hampshire Fish and Game Depart-ment were subsequently notifi ed of the inci-dent, with CO Holmes responding to the Jewell Trail.

At 10:50 p.m., Holmes located Greenough and a hiking compan-ion approximately 200 yards from the trailhead. Holmes also learned that Greenough had two more hiking companions who were in the same predicament, and that Greenough believed that they were waiting at the next bridge up the trail. As a result of this infor-mation, Holmes hiked Greenough and the other hiker back to the trailhead, and then had Greenough hike with him back up the Jewell trail to locate the other

stranded members of the party. After hiking for approximately 20 minutes, Holmes and Greenough located the two other stranded hikers (no lights) at the second bridge along the Jewell Trail. With the assistance of lights, the hikers were able to follow Holmes back to their vehicle, arriving there safely around midnight.
