what many historians believe is the burial vault of prominent Loyalist Sir John Johnson, located on the flanks of present-day Mont St-Gregoire.By Caroline Kehne Record Correspondent Philipsburg On Jan.8, 1830, mourners carried the body of Sir John Johnson, former Superintendent General of Indian Affairs and last Baronet of New York, to his estate on the flanks of Mount Johnson (present-day Mont St-Gregoire) for burial.Few then could have guessed what lay in store for Sir John and the family members who were laid to rest with him in the Johnson burial vault.In the 1950s, the vault and its contents were bulldozed, buried and all but forgotten.More than a halfcentury later, efforts to locate and restore the vault of one of Canada’s most important Loyalists have taken a step forward with the release of a provincial archeological report on the site.The report, which concludes a second, comprehensive archeological survey of the site, identified what may be the partial remains of Sir John and wife Polly.On June 14, Dick Eldridge, speaking during the annual general meeting of the United Empire Loyalists (Sir John Johnson Centennial Branch) in Philipsburg.presented the findings of the recently completed provincial report to branch members.The report summary, prepared by provincial osteo-archeologist Gerard Gagné and dated May, 2003, confirms the presence of the remains of at least seven adults and three to five children.The report suggests that the skeletal remains of one elderly man with extensive arthritis and ossification may be the remains of Sir John himself.See Sir

highlights village’s architectural past By Caroline Kehne Record Correspondent Mystic Alexander Walbridge, the inventor and entrepreneur who put the sleepy village of Mystic on the map, would be proud to see that the schoolhouse he helped to transform is still around, and now undergoing a second metamorphosis.The historic building will be home to a photographic exhibition entitled Yesterday/Today: Views of Mystic, which will highlight the village’s architectural and historical heritage.Yesterday/Today was launched over the weekend with community residences, former students and three of Walbridge’s four grandchildren in attendance.“It is most inspiring for my sisters and 1 to see how many newcomers in the community have stepped in and this a part of their lives,” Frances Walbridge told the assembled group of Mystic residents and former students.“My sisters (Dorothy and Edith) and I feel that Mystic is in good hands for the future.” The Mystic schoolhouse is a non-profit organization whose mission is to preserve and protect the building where local children studied until its closure in 1958.The schoolhouse, like many of the town’s buildings, is linked to the Walbridge name.To provide post-secondary education to his and other Mystic children, Alexander Walbridge proposed adding a second floor to the original single-storey schoolhouse, an idea opposed by key town residents.Not easily deterred, Walbridge secretly fabricated roof trusses for the second storey, and waited until the town attended the funeral of a prominent citizen.While the town was distracted, he and a crew of workmen installed the second floor before a complaint could be made.Sisters Thelma Soule Gage and Eleanor Soule Irwin are both former students who studied in the two-storey building in the early 1930s.“In my day, there was a stove in the centre of the room for warmth: The younger children sat around it, the y # o.«> V \ IfV ÜÜ A new musical by the Brookfall Bottom Feeders SCATTER

older, around the younger,” recalled Gage.“There was no artificial light — just natural light — and school was out by 4 p.m.” The sisters recall that by that time, classes took place on the first floor, with the second reserved for special events such as dances or parties.Randy Soule, whose father and aunt were both students and whose grandfather was assigned the task of lighting the fire in the woodstove, now serves as president of the committee that oversees the operation of the schoolhouse.Yesterday/Today: Views of Mystic, which comprises a collection of vintage views of the small village, was financed through private donations and grants from St-Ignace-de-Stanbridge and MRC Brome-Missisquoi.Local volunteers also made in kind donations: Potter Jacques Marsot contributed the sign, Sylvain Tremblay organized the painting of the interior Peter Dare provided the English text and the graphics and Ginette Nadeau, the French translations.“The exhibition was an example of teamwork by the entire community,” said artist Sylvie Bouchard.At the heart of the exhibition are photos from the Walbridge family archives, as well as others contributed by local donors.Dare has skillfully woven together past and present with his photo montages of the site of magnificent Lakelet Hall, its hothouses and A.S.Walbridge’s artificial lake, contrasted with the empty site today.The single point of reference in the black and white images is his 12-sided barn, which Dare has coloured for emphasis.The proceeds from sales of postcards and full sized reproductions of the exhibited works will be used to pay for repairs to the roof and cupola.Visitors are invited to visit the free CAROLINE KEHNE/CORRESPONDENT Three of Alexander Walbridge’s four grandchildren, Frances, Edith and

packing up to head off, you might want to give your vehicle a little extra TLC first.The change of the seasons is a good reminder for car maintenance.The first snow gets us thinking about snow tires.In the spring, rotten roads remind us to have our suspensions looked at.In the summer the blazing heat of July is a good reminder of the need to have your car’s cooling system checked out, as a part of an overall pre-vacation checkup.Your car’s cooling system is vital.Without it the engine would literally melt within minutes, bringing your trip to a grinding halt before you Under The Hood

be able to handle temperatures ranging from arctic to inferno, while still ensuring the coolant inside doesn’t boil off or spill onto the ground.There are four basic components to an automotive cooling system: The engine, which is designed to have the coolant flow around the cylinders.The water pump, which pumps 28,000 litres an hour through the system.The radiator, which cools the fluid down before it returns to the engine.And finally the water pump, which makes the whole thing work.Each of these components can fail, leaving you stranded, or worse, cooking your engine.A complete checkup of the cooling system is particularly important when heading off on your big summer trip, a time when the family sedan, truck or minivan will be loaded with kids, in-laws, outlaws, their luggage and maybe even a trailer on back.Inspection attention deficit! • hyperactivity .autism learning disabilities • behaviour Issues motor v sensory difficulties For the do-it-yourself type, a visual inspection of the system is the first step.Look for signs of leaks around the main components.Over time, hoses will bulge or crack, and connections could deteriorate.Corrosion build-up around the hose connections is a sign - that a problem may arise there soon, requiring the replacement of the hose, or at least the connection.The water pump, which typically has at least two hoses connected to it, will wear out over time, and is designed to start leaking before it fails outright.Radiators will also fail eventually, being at the front of the car and exposed to rain, snow, road dirt, bugs and all kinds of abuse.If no leaks are spotted, then check the coolant level.There are various methods of checking them these days, so if you’ve got an owner’s manual you’ll want to give it a look.A slight amount of coolant loss is not unusual, but a bigger loss, say more than a halflitre, is a sign something may not be right.A word of warning: If the engine has been running at all in the last few hours, the system may be hot and will be under pressure.Not the kind of shower you want to take.Top up with a mixture of coolant (also known as antifreeze) and water.Water conducts heat better than coolant, while the coolant helps keep the water from filling the system with rust.Caroline hui, erg.pediatric occupational therapist 27 Rock Hill Knowlton, Qc J0E-1V0 t.(450) 242-2816 f.(450) 242-2331 Other Levels While checking things out you’ll also want to watch for other leaks and check other fluid levels.Motor oil, along with providing lubrication, also helps cool the engine.Lower than usual levels of any fluid are a sign something needs to be looked at more closely.If you’re not going to do it yourself and you have a trusted mechanic, then they know what to look for.They can also check out the rest of the vehicle as well, including the tires, brakes, suspension, electrical and exhaust systems.As well as saving you a lot of grief in the long run, the pre-vacation checkup gives you peace of mind.Once you’re on the road you can concentrate on the task of driving, feeling relatively confident.But your responsibilities to your car don’t end there.On long trips coolant and other fluid levels should be checked daily.While driving, keep an eye on warning lights and gauges, which can alert you to a problem before it becomes a serious issue.The demands of summer driving, whether on vacation or not, should not be underestimated.CAA-Quebec is expecting to tow 61,000 vehicles, boost 31,000 car batteries, unlock 21,000 car doors, change 9,000 flat tires and provide emergency fuel to 1,300 motorists in the months ofjune, July and August alone.A good checkup may not entirely prevent you becoming part of those statistics, but it will make it a lot less likely.Jl'Ûndù&ée, de l'Ônierd Mets chinois àf canadiens, pizza, etc.Spéciaux pour déjeuner et dîner Chinese, Canadian cuisine, Pizza, etc Lunch 8c dinner specials 514 Knowlton Rd., Knowlton 243*5726

KitchenAid.ca By Murielle Parkes Record Correspondent The launch of 10 new ‘Potton: Yours to Discover’ bilingual heritage brochures and a 2004 calendar was an occasion topped off with wine and cheese recently.“The brochures bring back to life the yesterdays of Potton Township, while inviting our public to better know our rich history and traditions,” said Dr.Gérard Leduc, who along with Peter Downman researched and wrote the text with editing assistance from Brian Tim-perley.The new leaflets, launched from the conference room of the Reilly House recently, brings to 20 the number of information brochures in the series produced by the Potton Heritage Association.The association, founded by Leduc in 1991, promotes knowledge and appreciation of Potton’s heritage.Attending the event were some 50 members and friends, plus representatives of the brochure project’s two major sponsors — Marcel Turner, a councillor for the Municipality of the Township of Potton, and Christina Richards, a director of the Townshippers’ Foundation.Richards brought along a $1,000 cheque, which she presented to Jacques Thouin, president of the association.The information pamphlets evoked plenty of praise.“These are particularly nice,” noted Richards as she leafed through the new series.“They could serve as a model.” Topics for this year’s series feature: Owl’s Head Mountain House and Potton Springs Hotel (a profile of 19th century tourism); Railways (including the Peanut Special which served the Missisquoi Valley); Water Mills; Round Barns; Schools; Churches, and Owl’s Head mountain (the site of a Free Mason initiation in 1858).Two pamphlets — Cairns and Indian Rock — describe an era before recorded history.For the two heritage buffs — Leduc and Ralph Ridgway — who took on the calendar project, the exercise was as satisfying as it was “a lot of fun.” The calendar, re plete with 12 vintage scenes from Potton Township, was a new venture for the association.In using the calendar, “people will get to appreciate our heritage,” re marked Leduc.Copies will sell for $10 at the Man- 1 2 cu ft, Microwave • 1100 wolfs • 8 heating options • A thawing oot,:n$ • Kt.;cp5 worm •

poops, please scoop.issue that most would just rather not “We feel that by dealing with our talk about.bylaw with a little bit of humour, we can get more done than with ticketing,” said Dawes, who serves as the downtown merchant association’s (SDC-Knowlton) liaison to town hall and keeps a watch over downtown streets.To this end, Killer, Dawes’ half-Chi-huahua, half-Great Dane mascot, has joined summer student Jamie Mines at the Tourism Kiosk in Mill Pond Park to spread the message that if your dog poops, please scoop.Dawes added that local merchants will gladly supply a plastic bag to dog owners who find themselves unprepared when Fido answers nature’s call.Additional bags are also available outside the SDC kiosk at Mill Pond Park.Dawes said that Killer proved effective in the past.After his introduction last year, compliance increased dramatically.However, complaints regarding dog droppings on the town’s scenic streets, and especially along the Cold-brook Walking Path, have been on the rise.Dawes hopes that Killer’s return to the public eye will provide a gentle reminder to pet owners that it is their responsibility to protect the natural environment.Mascot uses humour to raise awareness of dog bylaws By Caroline Kehne Record Correspondent Knowlton Downtown Knowlton is a dog-friendly town, but the town’s unofficial mascot is coming out of retirement to remind pet owners of their obligation to clean after man’s best friend.Killer is the poster dog for Lac Brome’s Bylaw 256, which requires all dogs to be licensed, leashed and under the control of their owners at all time.The so-called ‘poop-and-scoop’ provision of the bylaw requires that dog owners remove their pet’s excrement from public spaces such as streets, sidewalks, lawns and parks.The penalty for offending owners is $50 for the first offence, escalating to $200 for repeat offenders.It was David Dawes, owner of Shack and Bijouterie Dawes, who decided to bring Killer, a small stuffed toy dog with its own pedigree, out of retirement to raise awareness of an 2003 ^ North Hatley Antiques 8 Folk Art Show at the Curling Club Capleton Rd.North Hatley SAT July 5th (10am - 6pm) & SUN July

Scouts Clean Up Stream DAVID ANDERSON/SPEOAL Members of the 1st Knowlton Scouts, including Katlyn Kirby (pictured holding up a frog), and a few adult volunteers made an effort to clean up Coldbrook stream between Mill Pond and Knowlton Academy Saturday morning.Phyllis Sise asked the local scouting group if they would help improve the quality of the Coldbrook steam by picking up garbage, junk and old tires that have accumulated over the years.The town of Lac Brome also helped out by picking up what the scouts and volunteers found at three different points along the waterway.
