GHOSTS, HOBGOBLINES AND WILL-O-WISPSBROUGHT TO YOU BY:

There are more than 10,000 images at the

Cornwall Community Museum. If you are

interested in learning more about our

history, the museum has a wide selection

old and modern local histories for sale, .

Death, Lights, Corpses, Candles, Will-o-Wisps, Dead Mens' lanterns, all form part of the heritage of Eastern Ontario, according to Martintown historian RhodesGrant. These things were "...most commonly seen over marshy ground, and the turn of the road between Martintown and Apple Hill used to be covered withthem when the weather was suitable. They would rise up and float in the air."

It was believed that these sightings foretold the death of the person seeing them, or else the death of a close relative. Today the light is now known to be causedby gas emitted by decaying undergrowth found in marshes. Similarly, fox-fire is now recognized as a phosphorescent ligth sometimes given of by punk, or afungus growth from decaying wood.

It is doubtful, however, that the settlers would have been entirely satisfied with these explanations, as according to Grant, "Until the 1860s the conservativeminded people of Martintown celebrated two Halloweens, eleven days apart, paying respect to both the Julian and modern Georgian calendars.

With two days to mark Halloween with and a wealth of tradition, the people of Eastern Ontario, had their spirits. The French-Canadians had Were-Wolves, or LesLoup Garou, human vampires, dressed in animal skins who robbed, killed and ate their victims. According to Grant, the closest we come to have our own LoupGarou, is an inn-keeper near Dalhousie, who owned a large mastiff trained to hunt and kill humans. The inn-keeper, however, met his just rewards, when anintended victim made friends with the dog, and it turned on its master.

In Glengarry, the devil's familiar, or goblin was known in Gaelic as a Bochkin, Charged with reporting any backsliding to the devil, Grant relates the appearanceof a Bochkin at his great-grandmother's home. To fill the time during the long winters, children indulged in the slightly sinful act of playing cards. Arguing aboutwho won, "a great black dog (a familiar Bochkin form) came out of another room and walked through between them and into the fireplace and went up thechimney. Neither of them ever played cards again."

Another favourite Bochkin haunt is said to be the bush, "on Nine Mile Road at the turn south of Glen Falloch Road."

Scottish Highland folklor maintains that the devil existed in three forms. The white devil, the spotted devil, both never seen, and the black devil, which sometimesmaterialized.

Grant wrote that the first two devils only work through our thoughts. The white devil is "the most dangerous because he is the Tempter." The spotted devil "isthe one who suggest that it is alright to chisel a little, after all it is only a nickel or a dollar and everyone is doing it."

Then there is the black devil. Superstition and the belief in the powers of the four-leaf clover and other talismans formed part of early Upper Canadian life toexplain the unfathonable forces of nature around them. Even if beliefs in ghosts and goblins were more traditional than real, and only provided themes forchildren's stories, they played an important role in imparting lessons to children in a pleasurable manner.

For instance, if a man had more beehives than he needed, a neighbour could take one. It was unlucky and impractical to leave money in a society where cashwas scarce. Rather a gift would be left where it could be easily seen.

It was equally bad luck to pay for a cutting or a plant, as it was sure to result in the plant's death. The person who wanted the plant was supposed to take itunseen and leave a gift in its place. While many old customs have been lost, supersition and ritual are still with us, as anyone answering the door, to the host ofmasked youngsters on the 31st will be able to attest to.

A Jolly Halloween postcard, 1908

Halloween is alive and well as these photo of a home decorated for the season demonstrates.


by Bram D. Eisenthal

It’s ‘boo time’ again, that season where the child inus is reawakened once more, or when lifelongmemories are etched on the hearts and minds ofour own children. Hallowe’en is indeed a magicaltime, whether because we get to play dress-up, takeour kids throughout the neighborhood to meet ourmost generous, or frugal, town-mates, or experiencethe most delightful sugar rush and not have tomake any excuses for it. And if you’re a merchantselling costumes, cards, candles or creepy cinema,it’s ‘boom time’. Really, who doesn’t look forward toAll Hallow’s Eve?

The modern celebration of Hallowe’en is light, funfare, certainly in North America. But to trulyappreciate the significance of the day, you have togo way back, to an archaic era when nothing waslight and very little was done “just for the fun of it.”Ritual was everything during this pagan time,however, it’s hard to determine exactly when thattime was.

“Much of the history of that period is oral, so it’s hardto substantiate a time line,” said Arin Murphy, theonetime assistant manager of Melange Magique(Magical Blend), a popular downtown Montrealbookstore devoted to the native spirituality of theBritish Isles. It is here that many members of themedia congregate at Hallowe’en, seekinginformation on the holiday’s origins and truemeaning and fodder for their stories.

“Our modern Hallowe’en practices, such as dressingup and carving Jack O’ Lanterns, originate from thefolk practices of the Celts, but also come fromIreland and the British Isles,” added Murphy. “Evilspirits afoot that night would recognize a Jack O’Lantern as one of their own, for instance, and wouldnot attack a home that had them (root vegetables,like turnips, were most frequently used back then).People would also leave candles in their windows,to light the way home for the (deceased) membersof their family.”

For the Celtic people, the festival of Samhain(pronounced sah-win) also signified the beginningof winter. “Samhain is actually the Celtic word for themonth of November,” said Murphy.“In modern pagan terms, it signifies the death of

summer, when the god and goddess descend to theOtherworld.”

The honoring of ancestors plays a major part inritual today. “Additionally, you come to terms withwhat happened the previous year, forgive andforget. But the emphasis is also on education,seasonal and life cycles, and, of course, having fun.”

Murphy pointed out that the dress-up part is a greatway of unwinding. “As we get older, we become

more inhibited. On Hallowe’en, we can allowourselves to be more daring and everyone forgetsabout it the next day.” So, don’t be too shy about theBill Clinton mask you wore many years ago, or therevealing Jay-Lo dress that’s still in your closet. Youhaven’t broken any laws, unless bad taste is illegal.

Most of us are content with celebrating Hallowe’enby merely trick or treating, or curling up on thecouch to screen one horror movie after anotherwhile munching on bite-sized chocolate bars. Forothers, however, the living as well as the dead, thismarks a major period of celebration. The Day of theDead, or Dia de los Muertos, honors the spirits ofdead ancestors, in places like Mexico and certainparts of the U.S. Death personified is visibleeverywhere and the plethora of skull-like art, maskscalled “calacas” and figures, is more interesting andcelebratory than gruesome.

Throughout North America, Hallowe’en eventsabound. In Ontario, Niagara-on-the-Lake’s reputedlyhaunted Fort George packs ‘em in this usually chillytime of year. A guide takes the group around the siteafter dark, by lantern-light, and some real chills canbe experienced if you are open to the possibilitythat maybe, just maybe, something exists on the“other side.”The two-hour Ghost Tours of Niagara Hallowe’en

tour is held annually, with tickets quite affordable.They’re strictly limited to groups of 32 and usuallyvanish fast, so if you’re planning to be in the area,check out the information on their web site andreserve immediately:http://www.friendsoffortgeorge.ca/ghost.htm. 2011Hallowe'en Tours are still available October 28, 29,30 and 31. Tickets must be pre-purchased.Tel: 905-468-6621. If you think Canada is boring, let’s seehow you handle some good, old fashioned northernfrights.

New Orleans certainly knows how to titillate andterrorize a crowd, with its voodoo-inspired“Southern Noire” atmosphere. The entire weekleading up to Hallowe’en is filled with parties andevents, and local, internationally-acclaimed horrorwriter Anne Rice once helped make this a mostmemorable time. Her parties were the stuff legendsare made of. Just stay out of the cemeteries at night;While voodoo priestess Marie Laveau’s famous tombis a popular tourist attraction during the day, it canbe a testy spot once the sun dips below the horizonand self-declared vampires – no kidding on this one- roam the streets.

At the Nashville Zoo, you’ll encounter much morethan the popular elephants, Hyacinth macaws,gibbons and assorted other wildlife. The 192-yearold Grassmere Historic Farm, last owned by Elise andMargaret Croft, since-deceased spinster sisters, issmack in the middle and apparently very haunted.What an atmospheric place for a Hallowe’encelebration and that’s exactly what is done here, atthe seventh largest zoo in the U.S. This year’s 14thannual Ghouls at Grassmere features games,haunted hayrides and treats for the entire family,from 5 – 9 p.m. daily. Go to www.nashvillezoo.orgfor more information.

Not to be outdone, Nashville’s award-winningCheekwood botanical garden holds a El Dia de losMuertos family day, on the Saturday prior to Nov. 1,which attracts an astounding 30,000 members ofthe Hispanic community. It involves fun-filledentertainment and the creation of art, dance andliterary projects, all with a Day of the Dead theme.Go to http://www.cheekwood.org/Home.aspx formore information on Cheekwood and a contactaddress.

New Hampshire’s Mount Washington, located in theBretton Woods region, is said to be the stompingground of The Presence, an ageless spirit that is notquite seen, yet has terrorized many climbers andmeteorologists for decades. At its base, thevenerable Mount Washington Hotel & Resort has farmore than gourmet cuisine, stellar service and theprettiest mountain views going for it, since itsinception a century ago. From Oct. 28-29, 2011, theHotel will celebrate its Wicked Woods Weekend,with activities for children and even an adult partyawaiting you in a cave. In past years, there wereguided walks to the graves of the Crawford family ofBretton Woods, which can certainly be enquiredabout still. Look hard enough and you may find afew more skeletons at www.mtwashington.com.

Not to be missed is Mt. Washington’s historic CogRailway, which takes you up the side at a slow, 37-degree climb, to Tip Top House and the famousObservatory at the summit, the highest peak in thenortheast. The ride lasts three-hours return and is ablast for the entire family… go tohttp://www.thecog.com/).

Finally, Bristol, Connecticut has been the site of TheOriginal Witch’s Dungeon Classic Movie Museum,featured in countless feature articles, TV newsreports and even the print version of Ripley’sBelieve It or Not, since artist Cortlandt Hull started itwith his father over 45 years ago. The sculptor, whois related to late actor Henry Hull, of celluloid classicWerewolf of London fame, has put together anincredible museum of famous movie monsters,soon to be relocated and expanded into a shrine tomovies of all genres. He lovingly crafts each andevery figure and adorns many of them withauthentic props from the films each diorama isbased upon. The late great Vincent Price, as well asJune Foray (the cartoon voice of Rocky Squirrel),Mark Hamill, Sarah Karloff, Bela Lugosi Jr. andLeonard Maltin are just a few of the personalitieswho have ardently supported Hull’s efforts.Hallowe’en season, the only period when themuseum is currently open to the public, bearswitness to the countless aficionados who visit theDungeon annually and it’s well worth the trip. TheirInternet incarnation is located athttp://www.preservehollywood.org/DungeonWebNew/Home.html and tours are still availablethroughout October, including Hallowe’enweekend.

Whatever you choose to do this Hallowe’en,bear in mind that you are helping keep atimeless tradition alive for future generationsto enjoy. It’s not only about the candy, butthen again, some enthusiastic snacking oncea year won’t kill you, will it? If it does, there’sbound to be a candle burning for you in awindow, somewhere, sure as that cavity inyour tooth.

ARTS, CULTURE, AND POLITICS

An Open Letter to City Council by JasonSetnyk: I read about the selection ofpeople chosen for the CultureCommittee in a local newspaper. Fromthe arts community we have twoexperienced musicians, twoexperienced visual artists, and someonefrom the Youth Committee, as well as agood selection of people from the

community-at-large, City Councillors, andmembers from the counties. The selection of people chosen isexcellent, however I feel that there is something crucial missingfrom this committee, and I hope it can be rectified, perhaps byadding space for at least one more member. One figure in theCulture Plan study had pleasantly surprized me: Literary Arts inSD&G exceeds the provincial average! According to the CulturePlan there may be cultural tourism opportunities with LiteraryArts. Not only that, but Literary Arts, literacy, education, andlibraries are also connected to economic development. Pleaseselect someone from the Literary Arts community to berepresented on the Culture Committee. It just makes sense! I saythis as a literary artist and English teacher, as a tax payer, and as apromoter of arts and culture in our community. I am writing thisletter to provide helpful and constructive feedback. I stronglysupport the goals of the Culture Plan, and I congratulate thoseselected to be on the Committee. I am willing to offer any helpthat I can to move the Culture Plan forward. Thank you.

THE ENVIRONMENT

On Wednesday November 2nd there will be a showing of theenvironmental film "Powerful: Energy for Everyone" at the Benson Centre.The film explores the possibilities of using renewable energy instead offossil fuels and creating a more clean, green, and healthy world. The filmstarts at 6:30pm.

SOCIAL JUSTICE

Tim Archer was recently camping in front of City Hall for a week gatheringsignatures in hopes of getting a homeless shelter in Cornwall Ontario.Reggie Walker (aka Gary Samler) has also brought the issue ofhomelessness to the news by choosing to experience it first hand to betterunderstand it. In this past provincial election Poverty Free Ontario ran areverse campaign to help elect candidates sensitive to poverty. While theSocial Development Council of Cornwall and the Agape continuouslyaddress issues of poverty in our community. However, does Cornwall reallyneed a homeless shelter? I think it is an issue that should be studied andgiven serious attention. Homelessness in smaller communities is notalways visible like it is in larger cities like Toronto and Ottawa, and there aredifferent forms of homelessness. For example someone who is couchsurfing or someone who does not have a secure and safe home falls underthe umbrella of homelessness. Most homeless people do not choose to behomeless, and not everyone who is homeless is a substance abuser. In factmany homeless people in Canada either lost their job, cannot findaffordable housing, or have mental health issues. Social development isjust as important as economic development, and if there is indeed ahomelessness issue in Cornwall, it should be addressed. Any study shouldgather information from different stakeholders, from tax payers, to localcharity and non profit groups, social workers, hospitals, police, and ofcourse homeless people. If there is a need for a homeless shelter, and Istrongly suspect there is, it should be run by a non profit group andsubsidized by the City. A homeless shelter, although important, is a band-aid solution. More affordable housing will reduce homelessness and aguaranteed living wage will reduce the amount of working poor. Howeverthe goal should be to eliminate poverty, not to simply reduce it.

Nat. There are new articles every week and theyare always packed with tons of cool stuff thathopefully everyone, including you, will enjoy!

SCHOOLAt my school on thursday we celebrated halloweenbecause on halloween day a lot of the classes at myschool are going to the NAC including mine.

Anyway at my school we did a bunch of stuff tocelebrate halloween. We did a contest were each class picked 3people from there class who had the best witch cackle, zombiemoan, and wheir wolf howl and then they all performed theirscary sounds in front of the school. Then out of the school therewas a winner for each. Also, for the grade 7 and 8, there was ahalloween dance. Everything was very fun to watch and do!

ENTERTAINMENTThere is a new Wizards of Waverly Place 4 part series calledWizards of apartment 13B. There is a new episode of this 4 partseries every Friday and part 1 played on Friday October 15. I gotthe chance to watch part 4 early though, so I decided I wouldshare a bit of what happens in part 4 but don't worry I won't giveaway the ending:

In part 3 Felix tells Professor Crumbs that he has an apartment onthe wizard floor at the Winzor and Professor Crumbs tells himthere is no wizard floor at the Winzor so they go there to checkthings out but when they arrive Dexter the bell man (Gortoc theleader of the angles of darkness) casts the "in through the outdoor" spell with Felix's all powerful wand and now all of thewizards who live on that floor are trapped (mean while Max is atcamp). In part 4 Gortoc takes all of the people living on the 13thfloor, except for Alex, Justin, and Harper, and takes them to hislair. In his lair he turns all the wizards there into wizards ofdarkness. He then gets them to all dig a hole through a wall tomake a portal to the wizard world. His plan is to invade thewizard world and with the only people left who can stop himtrapped will the wizard world be gone forever.

Watch part 4 of Wizards of apartment 13B to find out.

NOW IT'S YOUR TURN! Send me in drawings, photos, stories,and anything else you want to send me and remember toinclude your first and last name. Thanks!

SEEKING THE ARTS . SEEKING THE ARTS

Where does Creativity

come from?I recently listened to a lecture by theAuthor of Eat, Pray, Love; ElizabethGilbert. In her lecture she musedabout after the success of Eat, Pray,Love which became a best seller anda movie, what could she do to topthat? This is a feeling that many ofus can identify with no matter what

our creative outlet.

There will be a moment in time when we feel we havereached the highest point in our abilities and while we are atthat place we produce something that is truly extraordinary.The problem comes when the afterglow dies down and weare once again before that blank canvas, can we do it againor better? If only we could remember all the factors thatbrought us to that moment of brilliance in order to be able todo it again. If only we could catch hold of that spark ofbrilliance and keep it in a jar to take out and use the nexttime. Sadly it isn’t that easy.One fact you must accept is this, you are not a machine! Amachine can be built to produce the same thing over andover again with complete accuracy and run for hours, days oryears doing the same thing over and over. This is not you.You are a complicated soul, full of love, warmth, fears anddistractions, all of which change the day to day variables ofyour productivity. Every day is a new day full of mystery andexcitement, all of which is feeding your creative self orstarving it depending on the circumstances. To expect thesame results daily can happen but the shine will wear off andnot only you will see it but so will your audience.

Instead look at yourself as a prize winning thoroughbred, needing care,love, a good diet and lots of exercise. Your exercise includes exercisingyour creativity as well as your body. Do all these things and maybeyou will come home with a prize, maybe not. There is one factor weleft out that will ensure you are winning more than loosing and that isa purpose. What is the purpose to your art? What story are you tryingto tell us? To find the brilliance inside you on a regular basis be willingto tell the stories of what you love, hate and fear. Those are the storieseveryone who sees your work will connect with and that will make youshine.Picasso said, “What do you think an artist is? ...he is a political being,constantly aware of the heart breaking, passionate, or delightful thingsthat happen in the world, shaping himself completely in their image.Painting is not done to decorate apartments. It is an instrument of war.”- Pablo PicassoWhat he was explaining was that creativity comes from theexperiences the artist has with the world and the need to explain itboth to themselves and the viewer. When you paint a tree or singabout your lost love you should remember how the experience felt andlet that feeling flow through you to transform, not only your work persay but the viewer, the audience and the world.

The Colour of CommunicationI have been travelling extensively over the last six weeksteaching a program called the Colour of

Communication. To date it has taken me as far west asRegina and as far east as Moncton. Although my visits to each location are briefto say the least, I still find myself in awe of our amazing country. Travellingthroughout the provinces instills a sense of Canadian pride in my heart.

Back to communication - have you ever wondered what colors yourcommunication? From my perspective, our personalities do. Consider thesequestions for yourself:• Do you consider yourself an introvert or an extrovert? By nature an introvert isquieter and more reflective or pensive. When they need to re-charge theirbatteries they prefer solitude and going within. Extraverts by contrast enjoybeing with others and re-charge their batteries by socializing, chatting andexchanging ideas.• Do you consider yourself a thinker or a feeler? Thinking versus feeling reflectshow you approach decision making. Thinkers are driven by logic and objectivity.They love processes, rules, order and see the world as black and white. Thefeeling preference differs in that they make their decisions through their values.It is a more subjective energy and sees the world in shades of gray. They arerelationship oriented.• Finally, do you see the forest or the trees when you first observe what is goingon around you? This is called intuition versus sensing. An intuitive person, by

Carl Jung’s definition, sees the whole before the parts, loves to dream, is conceptualand lives dominantly in the future. Those who are sensing use their five senses toexperience the world around them. They see, hear, taste and feel the details of life andas a result are grounded in the here and now.

The Colour of Communication divides individual preferences into the four colourenergies of red, yellow, green and blue. Typically red energy represents those who aredecisive, action oriented, and extraverted. They are described as bold, efficient,focused, fast-paced and action-oriented. Yellow energy, also extraverted, is moresociable as well as interactive (they are the great networkers) optimistic, dynamic andfriendly.

Green energy represents those who are considerate, supportive, reliable, trusting andvaluing of others. They love harmony and are the keepers of integrity. Finally blueenergy is factual, diligent, objective, structured and consistent. Both green and blueare introverted energies.

As you read these general descriptions, where would you place yourself first, red,yellow, green or blue? Then notice what you think your second, third and fourth energypreferences would be. When you understand yourself, you then begin to appreciatehow your personality preferences influence the many aspects of your life includinghow you learn, how you perceive the world to be, how you interact with life and howyou communicate.

Others of course are different from you and that is what makes life both interestingand, at times, challenging. You communicate from your colour preferences; the personacross from you does the same. Sometimes the communication works and sometimesit doesn’t. Most communication hiccups happen simply because what one personthinks he said is different from what the second person hears; all of this because thesetwo people are fundamentally different.

The colour of communication is a wonderful way of understanding yourself and thenunderstanding others. Use the descriptions in this article to guess who you are andperhaps guess who someone close to you is. Where do you get hung up whencommunicating? How are you different? How are you the same? Does themiscommunication happen because you see things differently?

This is your

beginning!

Have you ever wonderedwhat it would be like to goback to the 12 year old you?Where everything seemedto be SO simple and no onereally expected anything

out of you, that you could just, well, be you. Ioften go back to those times, a time where I coulddo what I WANTED to do and not what I wasSUPPOSED to be doing. All my dreams and hopeswere still so real, and at that time, I thought I couldDO anything and BE anything. I think we take thosetimes for granted, a time in our lives where we arestill so naive, that anything is possible and shouldbe possible.... When did this ALL change? Who toldme I couldn’t be what I wanted to be andwho/what happened that changed all my hopesthat ignited a fire inside of me? It’s a pretty scarythought when we really sit and think about howour dreams and hopes and goals in life often takea back seat to what we call ‘life’... and usually it’s allcaused by one thing, Fear.

I believe that the only fear that we REALLY have isfear itself. Fear of the unknown, of change, offailure and fear of success. If you think about it, theonly thing standing between you and your

dreams/goals in life is exactly that, fear. We fear of theunknown because uncertainty is something that cannot beseen or touched, it’s purely something that we create, andwhen we create an idea or a thought, it has the power tobecome real, but to see it and achieve it, you need to leap inthe unknown. Fear of change, who REALLY likes change?Honestly, I have only met a select few people that can takechange and run with it. Most of us, change takes time, andwe have to see the bigger picture to be able to take this stepand more often than none, it’s impossible to see it, we justhave to take steps towards the changes that we want in life.Fear of failure. We often think of failure in a sense that wehave NOT succeeded. Think about it, when you believe thatyou have failed, you believe that you didn’t or haven’tlearned anything, that you didn’t grow as a person, thatwhat you thought was a great idea was actually a terribleone. You’re wrong; you’ve actually ‘Failed Forward’, fabulousisn’t it! Fear of success. That’s the BIG one. Think about it,what you’ve dreamed of, hoped for and worked so hard foris actually YOUR reality. Don’t think about how you can keepthe momentum going, keep faith in your abilities to grow,it’s a magical thing when we are able to just BE andSUCCEED.

I challenge you, yes YOU, do to one thing that you’ve alwayswanted to do, maybe it’s something on your bucket list, orsomething that you’ve always wanted to do, big or small,and that because of fear, you’ve stop yourself, afraid to dowhat YOU want to do, something that, to others seems‘Crazy’ or ‘Childish’ or simple ‘Not you’. When you take thatleap, hold on to that and remember all those amazingfeelings coming at you like a bolt of lightning.

Congrats, you’ve just taken the first step to believing in YOU.

Remember-“Anybody can go back and start a new beginning, butanyone can start today and make a new ending”-Unknown

NORM LALONDE, MR. CANADAby Ian Bowering

The idea for a Cornwall version of Canada Day came to Norm Lalondeone "hot summer afternoon, a week before Canada Day," in 1972, whileserving coffee at his Montreal Road Biscuit Shop. Overhearing some ofhis customers arguing about the Quebec separatist movement andpremier Rene Levesque, Lalonde related that "A couple of people saidthey were going to the United States for the July 4th celebrations. Thismade Norm "very, very angry" and disappointed that nothing wasplanned locally to mark Canada's birthday. Norm felt that "It was a realshame that we didn't take pride in our own country."

Moved to action Norm then called Toronto and obtained some posters,stickers, buttons, miniature flags and other items to celebrate CanadaDay. With five days to go and five helpers Norm staged Cornwall's firstCanada Day in the school yard at Nativity. Featuring a small parade,tug-of-war, dance, 1,000 sparklers and the singing of the nationalanthem about 500 people turned out. Supported by Mayor GeraldParisien and Alderman Aime LeBlanc, Norm reminisced that "Everyonehad a great party."

In an interview with Sultan Jessa, Norm continued "I thought it was aone shot deal and someone else was going to carry the torch after that."

Unsupported, Norm with the help of his wife Therese raised $539 forfireworks for the 1973 celebration through the proceeds of matineesheld at the Port Theatre.

Determined that the celebrations would be financed by the citizens ofCornwall and not governmenbt handouts, the festivities grew to includenumeous local organizations and people in a full week of activities,culminated by a spectacular July 1st fireworks display in Lamoureux,that attracted an estimate 50,000 people by the mid 1980s.Norm and Therese retired from organizing Canada Day after 30 years in2002. The day has never been the same since.

Grand Re-opening of

Moulinette Hall At SLC,

Trunk Sale for M.S. and

Preparing for a

Book ReleaseOctober is flying by and what a busy week it hasbeen! It was a week filled with events at St.

Lawrence College, planning for the upcoming TrunkSale & Pamper Me Party in support of M.S. Society and the longanticipated publishing of my son's first novel.

I joined St. Lawrence College, Cornwall Campus just over a month agoand what a wonderful time I am having. Everyday I meet staff, facultyand students from our campus and the Brockville and Kingstoncampuses. Last Friday marked the Grand Re-opening of MoulinetteHall. A spectacular crowd gathered to join us in marking thisachievement and ushering in the revitalized campus and our newaddress on St. Lawrence Drive. It was an opportunity for donors,community representatives and former staff, to see the impressiverenovations, the spectacular entranceway to Moulinette Hall and meetand mingle with faculty, staff and students. A particularly touchingpart of the program was the Student Parade where representativesfrom each of the programs joined the event and thanked the donorsand community representatives for their generous support. If youwould like to know more about St. Lawrence College, you can visithttp://www.stlawrencecollege.ca/

The Trunk Sale & Pamper Me Party for MS Society is coming up on November 6. Iam so excited to be a small part of this wonderful event. The endless hours WeThree Girls & Co. organizers Debbie Poirier Burns, Julie Hickman and Keitha Fisherpour into this event, must be noted. It is a labour of love and the camaraderie thisgroup shares has transcended to the co. referred to. Nancy Sylvester & TonyLacroix round out this fabulous group.

This great concept grew in demand and additional vendors wanted to take partand give back to a great cause. The vendors will be set up at Marlin's Orchards &Garden Centre on Sunday Nov. 6 from 11:00am-4:00pm. Tickets are $5.00 eachand all vendors will be providing a minimum of 10% of their sales to the MS

Society. Although the charity of choice had already been selected, it wasparticularly touching for Marlin's Orchards, since a family member wasrecently diagnosed with M.S. This is an event that will help showcase localbusinesses and artists and offer a great opportunity for early Christmasshopping or to just pamper yourself for a good cause.If you have never attended, be prepared for a shopping experience. Newthis year is a small cafe area surrounded by food vendors. The alwaysentertaining, multi-talented Graham Greer will be performing again thisyear in the cafe area.

Last year my friend Sue and I attended and were very impressed with thesetup, the concept and the variety available. We both picked up severalitems for our loved ones on our Christmas list, and something forourselves. Hey, it was for a good cause, and there was so many temptingitems, I just had to. I even managed to sneak in a lovely necklace for Sue.She admired it, and I arranged to purchase it and surprise her with it. Mysuggestion; get your friends together and make a day of it. You will havefun, pick up some gifts, maybe get a little pampering in the Spa area withhair, beauty services and massages available. Don't forget to check outthe artists' section, which has expanded significantly and with at least 6artists. They each have a unique style, different mediums and may eveninspire you to release your inner creativity. For more info and a list ofvendors you can visit their site www.we3girls.ca

Now, if you see me this week, you will note I am a little sleep deprived. Itis due in part to excitement and excessive hours of proofing. It was allworth it. It's because the incredible journey my son Brad has embarkedon has closed a chapter; so to speak. We celebrated that monumentalmoment when the final creation was send to the printer's.

Yes, I am the proud mom of Bradley Pennell; the 17-year-old author andillustrator of "Demongelic". He had a dream to write a book, based on thewonderfully entertaining, and imaginative characters he created. After ayear and a half, it was sent to local printer's Angel Printing and now wewait to hold them in our hands. He has a book signing scheduled forSaturday November 19 at Fantasy Realm. He will also be at the TrunkSale on November 6th. So if you do attend, be sure to stop by and seehim. He's truly inspirational. As I stated on social media, whether he sells1 or 1 000 000 I couldn't be prouder.

OF HALLOWEEN INVERSIONSAND FAIRIES

Halloween's Celtic roots as both harvestfestival and commemoration of the deadhave now blossomed in popularity acrossall ethnic and sexual lines. Sub-culturessuch as the Gays, like the Wiccans and Neo-Pagans before them, have claimedHalloween for themselves. However, weshould never forget the Celtic balladssurrounding Halloween, the kind that turns

to song the heart of every Glengarrian, bothNorth and South.

My favorite ballad is "Allison Gross" in which anugly witch after trying to seduce a fine youngman, turns him into a worm. But the queen ofthe fairies, riding by on Halloween night,brakes the spell and turns the young man backto his 'ain proper shape'.Score one for theHalloween Fairies, whatevertheir gender be!

Trick or treating, of course, isat the core of modernHalloween rituals. This ritualis an inversion of the usualpower structure, the one daya year when children are"officially licensed" to havepower over adults. It is alsothe first real holiday in theNorth American publicschool year. Even thoughthere is no school break for

Gary Friedman

Professionally Chilling With ...

the holiday, it nevertheless represents the firstoccasion for merrymaking after the beginning of theschool year.

Some would suggest that Halloween is becoming co-opted by being over-commercialized. In the end, Ibelieve that the Holiday's participative humourinvigorates it and contributes to its longevity.
