gourmand’s delight By Caroline Kehne Record Correspondent Stanbridge East For those in search of a country culinary outing, Stanbridge East is the place to be on this Sunday.Beginning at noon, the annual soup luncheon at St.James Anglican Church Hall will treat visitors to a hot soup menu, while the 19th annual Apple Pie Festival runs from 1:30-4 p.m.on the grounds of the Missisquoi Museum.The luncheon, hosted by the Anglican Church Women of Frelighsburg and Stanbridge East, has quickly become a September tradition as legions of volunteers prepare a generous selection of hearty soups, a variety of homemade breads, coffee and tea.This year’s hot soup menu includes pea, leek, beef and barley, and corn chowder.The cost is $5, and profits will go toward the Frelighsburg’s Bishop Stewart Memorial Church.The Apple Pie Festival is one of the museum’s biggest fundraisers, attracting visitors from across the Townships to sample one of the nearly 250 apple pies prepared by a legion of volunteer bakers.This year, the Apple Pie Festival will start a half-hour earlier to accommodate the expected 600 visitors that will attend the annual fall fundraiser.The museum opens at 10 a.m., but pie serving officially begins at 1:30 p.m.Admission is $6, $2 for children 10 years and under, and includes a slice of homemade apple pie, ice cream, coffee, tea or cider and a visit to the museum where its current exhibition, Articles of Faith, continues.Organizer Pam Realffe said that leftovers are never a problem — last year, all of the pies were either served or sold within two hours.Also included in the entry price is free popcorn and live entertainment beginning at 1 p.m.The afternoon’s two featured bands are Folk-grass — featuring guitarist Roily Berard, fiddler Raymond St-Laurent, guitarist Sabine Bittner-Maher, and stand-up bass player Perry Beaton — and Tom Kilbride and Company, featuring guitarist Tom Kilbride, bass player Perry Benedik, guitarist Larry Como and fiddler/guitarist Terry Howell.Activities for small children include face painting and a visit to the Missisquoi Museum’s Club House, a new addition produced with a federal grant from the Young Canada Works program.The St-James Anglican Church Hall is located off Maple Street in Stanbridge East.For more information about the luncheon, call (450) 248-3460.The Missisquoi Museum is located at 2 River

officers would only speak English if they choose to, and that some would be unable to respond to an emergency call in English.5.The SQalso made it very clear that those living in the part of Brome Lake near Waterloo would not at any time, or for any known reason, be served by the Waterloo SQ station, which is in another MRC.This means that under the SQplan, all calls for help from places like Ful-ford would have to be routed through Dunham of Cowansville.Complaints about ineffectual service would not be handled by our own town council.6.Finally, while the SQmay be all around us, this is hardly a problem.In fact, as a real estate agent, I view it as an asset.People come here, and live here, for a perceived quality of life.It is not the number of cars, boats, or Ski-Doos that count .It’s not even the number of police officers we have at any one time.The important thing is whether or not the police serve the community, or serve their own ends, directed by someone in another

former photographer and painter began experimenting with quilting after working with stained glass design, applying her understanding of colour, texture and form to fabric.It is no coincidence, then, that her “meaningful images” have more in common with stained glass than with traditional quilt making.Her quilts are both esthetically interesting for their use of colour, form and texture to create emotion as they are intellectually interesting for their unexpectedly rich content.While abstraction can hide a poverty of ideas, Côté’s quilts tell stories, the subject of which are variations on mankind’s relation to nature, and of mankind to a distant, existential God.Her stories are sometimes abstract, while at other times are figurative and, like a medieval mystery play, obscure and surreal.Her subjects are a rich and varied brew of the cultural iconography of medieval Europe and Judeo-Christian culture with modern splash of feminism, mathematics.New Age spiritualism and environmentalism.Each quilt, which she estimates takes up to a year of fulltime design, layout and hand stitching to complete, is unique.She and husband Roger are also regular members of the Tour des Arts, exhibiting both quilts and stained glass from their Ellson Road studio.The Centennial Building is located at 130 Lakeside in Knowlton.The building is open weekends, 10 a.m.to 4 p.m., and Monday through Friday, l a.m.to 4 p.m.For more information, call (450) 243-6782.CAROLINE KEHNE/CORRESPONDF.NT Irma Côté and a work in progress entitled, “Be Still My Heart".Kool rare specialist | C N N P

years, giving up the Pub was a very emotional decision, said Wood.“But I felt it was time to turn it over to people with the energy and enthusiasm to keep the place hopping.” The new owners — all four of them — are determined to do just that when they officially take over on Oct.1.“Things are going so well that we don’t plan to make any major changes, just improve on what’s here,” explained Randy Wolak, one of the new owners, who recently sold his Petro Canada station in Toronto for a less hectic life in Knowlton.Wolak is joined by his sister-in-law Evelyne Rivard, who is moving to Knowlton with her husband as soon as their Pointe Claire home is sold.Also in the mix is Linda Bremner, a friend and Pub patron who retired to Knowlton with her husband 10 years ago “but had a change of plans,” and Christine Mather, who has worked at the Pub since its inception in different capacities, most recently as its office administrator.In addition to Mather, all of the owners have hospitality experience.Bremner and her husband once owned a poolroom and bar in Ville Lasalle, while Rivard has worked in the food industry and Wolak has ran a food concession at his service station.All four will be working partners, so patrons will find at least one of them in the Pub at all times.Everyone is invited to the farewell bash for Gerry Wood on Sept.29.The food, music and decorations will be provided by Virgo Catering, which will con- tinue its close association with the Knowlton Pub, including catering the popular Sunday brunch and Monday evening pasta bar and buffet.Pub patrons can also look forward to another party in late October or early November, when the new owners plan to hold their official opening.Wood may have sold his beloved Pub, but he certainly is not retiring.He retains ownership of the adjoining Knowlton Theatre and the strip mall facing the Pub, as well as his interest in Virgo Catering.He also plans to become more involved in Woodward Enterprises, a London-based company owned by his daughter Deborah and son-in-law David Ward, which owns the UK rights to the liquor-control system used in the Knowlton Pub.In October, Wood will head to Ireland to help install a system in a 2,000-seat sports pub.The Knowlton Pub is located at 267 Knowlton Rd.Tel.: (450) 242-6862 or WWW.KNOWLTONPUB.COM Coffee aficionados can now indulge their craving for an upscale brew at Virgo Catering, which just recently began offering a wide selection of specialty beans and ground coffee from Montreal-importer Café Napoléon.“We chose Café Napoléon because of the high quality of their coffee, which they roast on their premises,” said Virgo Romano, co-owner of Virgo Catering, whose brightly coloured shop offers a feast of locally-produced delicacies like duck, wild boar, venison and maple products.All the coffee is attractively displayed in a large wall rack equipped with coffee grinder.Shoppers can choose from nine different blends and roasts of beans ($9.50/pound), each bearing an historically inspired name: Café Bonaparte for a medium roast, Café Guisseppe Garibaldi for an Italian espresso, and Café Charles II for a moka-java, regular-roast blend, and so on.The Café Mozart line ($4.50/half-pound bag) offers pre-ground blends of flavoured coffee — chocolate/raspberry, vanilla/hazelnut - plus a breakfast, medium-body and Columbian blend.The Fair Trade line ($8.25/ half-pound bag) is certified organic coffee, marketed by small coffee growers at fair prices.Virgo Catering is located at 2558 Knowlton Rd.Tel.: (450) 243-0834.Five years of hard work has finally paid off for the historic Lakeview Inn in Knowlton.The Canadian and American Automobile Associations have just awarded the Inn’s elegant 56-seat Sheffield’s dining room a coveted four diamonds, propelling it into the ranks of a very select group representing just 4 per cent of the 12,400 restaurants rated each year.A Four Diamond Award attests to superior personal service, first-class amenities and impressive surroundings.This rating, which will appear in the Lakeview’s restaurant listing in the 2002 Quebec TourBook guide, is extremely important for business, since an establishment’s diamond rating is often the deciding factor when CAA-AAA members (now totaling more than 43 million) choose a restaurant.This new dining designation is yet another feather in the cap of owner Ronald Blair, who bought the derelict hotel in 1986, spent millions restoring it to its former Victorian glory, and has succeeded in turning it into one of the province’s top inns.Last year, during its 125th anniversary, the Lakeview won the prestigious Quebec Tourism Grand Prix Award for lodging, in the six-to-49 room category.This year and last, Lakeview also won a four star rating for lodging from Hébergement Québec, and was the cover story in the July 2001 issue of North American Country Inns.The Auberge Lakeview Inn is located at 50 Victoria, Knowlton.Tel.: (450) 243-6183,

time.MacKelvie, well known around Knowlton for his participation in theatre, darts and Karaoke at Cedric’s Pub, has just struck the kind of deal that all struggling inventors dream about.A Canadian industrialist has just made MacKelvie a generous offer to purchase three of his patents, for a specific application.The patents cover three related technologies invented by MacKelvie — a process, a tool and a method of making the tool.Together, they enable almost any surface to be roughened for vastly improved bonding.“Think of it as a way of ‘Velcroizing’ a surface, leaving it with a forest of small hooks to which an adhesive or other moldable materials will firmly attach,” explained MacKelvie.“This allows for a much stronger assembly of parts, whether for an aircraft or a shoe.” This deal is a stroke of good fortune for MacKelvie, who has been developing inventions full time in his pyramidal workshop in Knowlton for more than 15 years.He currently has more than 20 inventions, many with issued patents for both Canada and the U.S.“Your first patent is really what defines you as an inventor,” says Winston, 60, who has been inventing things since launching rockets as a teenager.Buoyed by his recent success, MacKelvie is actively seeking lucrative deals for his other inventions.For a look at MacKelview's inventions, visit his website at

faut pas se fier aux apparences Une femme vêtue d’une simple robe de coton et son mari, portant un costume usé, sont descendus du train à Boston et se sont rendus à pied, sans rendez-vous dans l’antichambre du bureau du président de l’université Harvard.La secrétaire, pensa que ces gens ne méritaient pas d’être à Harvard.Elle fronça les sourcils.“Nous voulons voir le président”, dit l’homme doucement.“Il sera occupé toute la journée” de répondre la secrétaire.“Nous attendrons”, dit la dame.Ils attendirent durant des heures, ignorés de la secrétaire.Elle croyait qu’ils se décourageraient et qu’ils quitteraient les lieux.Il n’en fut rien.La secrétaire devenue impatiente, décida qu’il valait mieux déranger le président.“Peut-être” dit-elle au président, “que si vous les recevez pendant quelques minutes, ils partiront”.11 devint exaspéré; un homme de son importance, n’avait certainement le temps de voir des gens comme eux.Il n’aimait pas voir des gens aussi mal vêtus assis dans l’antichambre de son bureau.Le président sortit donc et alla vers le couple.La dame lui dit.Nous avions un fils.Il a étudié à Harvard pendant un an.Il aimait l’université.Il était heureux ici.Cependant, il y an un an il est décédé accidentellement et nous aimerions ériger un monument à sa mémoire, sur le campus.Le président ne fut pas touché.11 était sous le choc.“Madame”, dit-il, “Nous ne pouvons ériger un monument à chaque personne qui a Entre Nous Thérèse Bernard étudié à Harvard et qui est décédée.Le campus aurait l’air d’un cimetière.” “Bien non”, d’expliquer la dame rapidement.“Nous ne voulons pas ériger une statue; nous aimerions faire don d’un immeuble à Harvard”.Le président regarda le plafond puis la robe et le costume du couple et s’exclama: “Avez-vous une idée de ce que coûte un immeuble?Nous avons plus de sept millions et demi de dollars investi dans les immeubles que vous voyez à Harvard.” Pendant un moment la dame était silencieuse.Le président était content.Il pourrait peut-être se défaire d’eux maintenant.La dame se tourna alors vers son mari et lui dit: “Est-ce vrai qu’il n’en coûte pas plus que cela pour construire une université?” “Pourquoi ne pas en mettre une sur pied” dit le mari.Le président était confus.Monsieur et madame Leland Stanford se levèrent et partirent.Ils se rendirent à Palo Alto en Californie où ils mirent sur pied une université qui porte leur nom, en mémoire de leur fils dont Harvard ne voulait pas.La leçon de ce fait authentique, raconté récemment par Malcolm Forbes, est qu’il ne faut pas juger les gens à leur apparence.C’est plutôt le cour qui compte.Brief Rosemaling exhibit on display through September An exhibition of rosemaling by Valarie Van Horn is currently on display at the Maison du Livre in Stanbridge Station until the end of September.The Venise-en-Quebec artist has studied this traditional form of Norwegian folk painting for nearly three decades in Canada, the U.S.and Norway.Van Horn
