Hallowe'en's popularity continues to climb Bring forth the raisins and the nuts - To-night All Hallows' Spectre struts Along the Moonlit way.No time is this for tearor sob, Or other woes our joys to rob, But time for Pippin and for Bob, And Jack-o'-lantern gay.The evidence is out there - right in front of us on store shelving, social calendars and front lawns - Hallowe'en has become just about as popular to celebrate, dress up and decorate for as Christmas.This was already apparent in the home décor world for some time, as demand for fun, spooky, haunting items to spruce up the household became increasingly popular.Come forth, ye lass and trousered kid, From prisoned mischief raise the lid, And lift it good and high.Leave grave old Widsom in the lurch, Set folly on a lofy perch, Nor fear the awesome rod ofbirch When dawn illumines the sky.According to a piece from the online version of The Canadian Encyclopedia (Andrew McIntosh - 2012, updated November 1st, 2016) the traditions we have come to love began in Canada in large part thanks to 'Irish and Scottish immigrants who brought customs of wearing disguises to ward off ghosts and offering food to appease malevolent spirits'.'Tis night for revel, set apart To reillumine the darkene heart, And rout he hosts of Dole.'TIs night when Goblin, Elf andFay, Come dancin in their best array To prank and royster on the way and ease the troubled soul.McIntosh noted that the first documented Hallowe'en disguise took place in Vancouver in 1898, and the first mention of trick-or-treat goes to Lethbridge, Alberta, in 1927.In the 1990s the popularity of celebrating Hallowe'en among the adult population saw an increase, and by 2014 the industry was evaluated at approximately $1-billion in Canada.The Celtic celebration of Samhain - pronounced Sow-in (Gaelic for summer's end, and also for the word November) - continues to be cited as closely related to Hallowe'en's beginnings.The evening of the 31st of October was recognized by the Celtic Druids, who led their people in celebration, as the dividing line between the light and dark halves of the year.This 'spiritualy liminal line' was believed to be a time when 'the boundary between the living and the dead was at its thinniest and all manner of hosts, fairies and demons, including souls of the dead, were able to visit the living.' The ghosts of all things, past parade, Emerging from the mist and shade That hid them from our gaze, And full of song and ringing mirth, In one glad moment of rebirth, Again they walk the ways of earth, As in the ancient days.The beacon light shines on the hill, The will-o\u2019-wisps the forests fill With flashes filched from noon; And witches on their broomsticks spry Speed here and yonder in the sky, And life their strident voices high Unto the Hunter\u2019s moon.Still today, in parts of Ireland, Hal- lowe'en is referred to as Pooky Night - referring to the puca, a particularly rascally fairy.And yes, there we have the roots of the word 'spooky'.Christianity played a part in the be- ginings of Hallowe'en as well, with the celebration of All Saints' Day, recognizing the saints (or hallows) of the church.All Hallow's Eve took place the evening before (sometimes referred to as All Hallows' Day).The air resounds with tuneful notes From myriads of straining throats, All hailing Folly Queen; So join the swelling choral throng, Forget your sorrow and your wrong, In one glad hour of joyous song To honor Hallowe\u2019en.Whether it's been a while since the days when you welcomed trick-or- treaters to your home, or if your household's jack-o'-lantern has burned bright for as long as you can remember, may this Hallowe'en provide you with a chuckle and perhaps fond memories of your own time out and about.Happy Hallowe'en!

Ogilvie was posted to Squadron 609, piloting the Spitfire Mark I, the workhorse of the Royal Air Force.In September of 1940, Ogilvie became one of the heroes of the Battle of Britain.In the midst of the aerial battle, Ogilvie noticed a German bomber had separated from formation and was headed for Buckingham Palace.Ogilvie and others managed to down the bomber, which crashed into Victoria train station.The German plane managed to drop its bombs, but they missed the palace.On July 4, 1941, Ogilvie, at that point flying a Spitfire Mark V, was forced to parachute from his burning plane, damaged in battle.Severely wounded, Ogilvie landed in occupied France.He was arrested by a German patrol, given medical treatment, and then transferred to Stalag Luft III prisoner-of-war camp.In March 24 and 25 of 1944, Ogilvie was one of 76 prisoners that escaped the seemingly inescapable prison through a tunnel they had dug.Three of the escapees made it safely back to England.The other 73, including Ogilvie, were recaptured.According to Blanchette, her cousin remained a prisoner-of-war until liberated by allies.\u201cWhat really got me was what he went through when they recaptured the fellas that got out through the tunnel,\u201d she commented.Blanchette explained that while in the POW camp, every few weeks Ogilvie and the other inmates were rounded up and given scraps of paper, each with a number written on it.A list of random numbers were then read out, and the prisoners holding them were shot right in front of their peers.The gruesome ritual continued until the camp was liberated, Blanchette said.Ogilvie was one of 23 out of the 73 recaptured men to survive the ordeal.The other 50 soldiers were executed.\u201cTo think such things actually took place,\u201d Blanchette said.Ogilvie\u2019s harrowing story is immortalized in the book \u2018The Spitfire Luck of Skeets Ogilvie: From the Battle of Britain to the Great Escape\u2019, written by his son Keith.T uesday , October 30, 2018 Page 3 Since Oct.22, the intersection of Jacques-Cartier and Portland has been completely closed to traffic.This decision was made following an accident where a traffic signaler was slightly injured by a passing car.LOCAL NEWS The Record newsroom@sherbrookerecord.com Flight Lt.Keith \u201cSkeets\u201d OGILVIE, 1915-1998 Lois Blanchette remembers Partial two-day College St.closure today, Wednesday Record Staff College Street between Archie- Mitchell and Oxford Crescent in Lennoxville will be shut down the area to traffic today (Tuesday) and Wednesday until 4 p.m.The City recommends taking a detour by way of Archie-Mitchell and Oxford Crescent.The work will also interrupt water service for its duration between Archie-Mitchell and Oxford Crescent.No temporary drinking water supply is planned.Portland work extended \u2018at least\u2019 two more weeks Car thief abandons passenger after chase Record Staff Acar thief fleeing police allowed his passenger to fend for herself following a chase in Sherbrooke.The 29-year-old woman ended up spending the weekend behind bars, while an individual driving a stolen vehicle was still being sought on Monday morning.Sherbrooke police received a call about a vehicle theft in the parking lot of Dépôt St.around 11 p.m.Saturday night in downtown Sherbrooke.Information allowed police to locate the vehicle on 12th Avenue northbound at Brulotte St.The vehicle continued to flee to the CHUS where it struck four vehicles stopped at traffic lights in front of the Le Floral motel.The suspect had tried to squeeze through the four vehicles and managed to make it to the connection of Highway 610, at which point he abandoned the stolen vehicle and fled into the woods on foot, leaving his passenger to be caught.She said she does not know the person she was with.She was charged with car theft on Monday at the Sherbrooke courthouse.The main suspect, however, was still at large, despite an intervention by a Sûreté du Québec dog handler. The Terry Fox Run On Thursday, September 27th, it was the annual Terry Fox run at SES.The event featured all of the students at SES (including the teachers) and some parents.It was a great day to have the run, the sun was shining and there was inspiring music playing.The SES community was raising money for cancer research.If $500.00 were to be raised, the students would have an extra long recess! In the end, $1016.50 was raised by SES community, so the goal was doubled!

We felt great.The Parent Participation Organization (PPO) provided apples for all students at the end of the run.Thank you to everyone who made donations and thank you to our PPO for the apples.In conclusion, we finished the run and had a great time.Maybe you could join us another time!

Thank you to Mme.Blouin and her students for answering our questions! By Julia C 6L Take Me Outside Day On Wednesday, October 24th, the students at SES went outside for at least one class to participate in Take Me Outside Day.The students spent class time outside having fun and doing things they enjoyed.The weather was pretty cold but it was not raining.It was cloudy but the kids didn\u2019t mind.Students dressed for the weather.People were spread out, some went across the street to Howard Park.Students say that they want to do this again next year! By Class 6L The Annual Galt Run The Beginning At the start of the run every runner in S.E.S gathered in the gym so Mr.G and Mme Paquin could talk to the students about the run.At 9:00 they left to go to Galt.When they arrived at Galt, the S.E.S team put their bags away.The students all talked together and kept warm.Walking The Course After all the schools arrived all the students followed the teachers to see the course.They watched a teacher (Mr.Fortin) run the course when they were walking the course.The Terrain It had rained the night before the race so the field was very wet and muddy, so that made it feel very cross-country like.At the cross-country run the best part was when we crossed through a little wood and we could push ourselves with the trees.The teachers had to create a different path because of all the mud and water.The terrain was just perfect for the cross-country run.The Results At the end of the event SES had 23 top 10 positions and 5 medalists.We are all proud of the runners who ran at the Galt Cross-country run.We know that everyone gave their best try and that\u2019s what counts.By Philip and Laurent Mrs.Carrière We would like to introduce our readers to Mrs.Carrière, the principal of Sherbrooke Elementary School.We nicknamed her Mrs.C 2.0 because our last principal was also Mrs.C.She is new to our school this year.We did a little interview with her so we would like to share that with you.When Mrs.C has spare time she likes to read.Her favourite sports are basketball and football.She was a gym teacher before.Mrs.C taught at Trafalgar in Montreal then at The Study and then at Beurling Academy.She also taught at other schools.Ms.C has older children who are at high school, CEGEP and University.We really like her, she is nice and she likes the Habs!

October 24,2018 Iread the above-noted article with interest and wish to make the following comments.The original settlers of Quebec were from France and were mostly Roman Catholic.Most of them were illiterate and, in many settlements, the only persons who were able to read and write were the parish priests.Catholicism was firmly in place as the guiding force in day-to-day living.This was still the order of things when Premier Maurice Duplessis, obtained power under the guidance and, perhaps, the control of Cardinal Leger.A case in point was the Premier\u2019s statement in response to the federal government\u2019s decision to no longer process Quebec divorces.He said that non-Catholics would not be able to obtain divorces if the federal government maintained their position.The Catholic Church continued to exercise influence over governmental affairs for some time thereafter.At some point prior to this , a crucifix was placed in the Quebec National Assembly behind the Speaker\u2019s chair.In light of the church\u2019s influence there can be no doubt that this was a Catholic symbol.All Christian religions use a cross as an indication of their beliefs, but, to my knowledge, none of them have the body of Christ on those crosses.Clearly this does not represent Christian values, but was and remains a part of Catholic symbolism as that cross has the body of Christ attached.I am firmly opposed to removing the right of citizens to display their religious affiliations with one exception.I believe that Muslim women must uncover their faces so they can be identified.Otherwise people should have the right to wear what they please within the realm of decency.Although I do not believe that religion has a place in government, but, being unable to have it both ways, I am obliged to accept the crucifix remaining in place in the Quebec National Assembly.BARBARA MORGAN WATERLOO, QUEBEC By Linda Knight Seccaspina In the 50s and 60s when I grew up in Cowansville, Quebec socks were darned, baths shared, kids roamed wild, and we licked the cream off the paper tops of milk bottles.As a kid, my mother and I spent the entire month of October, being excited for Halloween and costumes were planned.There was happiness in the air Halloween night with lots of \"thank you,\" and \"please come again\u201d as doorbells were rang and the words \u201cTrick or Treat\u201d were heard in the air.Most of the kids that lived on Albert Street climbed the big hill to William Street first as word on the street was \u201cthe best candy in town\u201d was located there.It was the first place I ever saw treat-size chocolate bars and you could barely move because there were so many children.In 1962 I officially became a Beatnik at the age of 11.There were no official notices, no immediate black clothing; I just got up one morning and started to write bad poetry, and that was that.The primary inspiration was the fact that my father said that Jack Kerouac was a bad influence on young people, and that was enough for me.That year my Halloween costume was a green wool sweater that barely covered my derriere, thick red tights, and a red beret.Yes, I was dressed as part of the Beat Generation.As one of my friends said it was Halloween and everyone was entitled to one good scare- and I was it.High school came and It was now that part of my life where I wanted to be accepted.Unfortunately fitting in on Halloween included toilet paper, soap and shaving cream.We teepeed quite a few houses with one ply and eggs were thrown.I knew repenting later would not cure mischief, so I declined to participate.Thankfully nowadays, deer destroy the carved pumpkins and eggs are hopefully being celebrated with a local food drive.In my 20s I became a fashion designer and because I was so eclectic everyday became Halloween for me and I never really looked back.Some people just didn\u2019t get my thoughts on style and still don\u2019t.My thoughts?If the broom fits, keep on riding it.Nowadays kids seldom know the past joys of trick or treating we enjoyed.Along with non-flammable costumes they only accept gluten free, non GMO, and locally sourced candy.There\u2019s no \u201cApp\u201d for the past to portray the scary plastic costumes of witches, vampires or ghouls of days gone by.They are now only part of our past memories.Maybe it\u2019s a good thing, because at this point in the month of October my blood type is now registered as Pumpkin Spice.Now that\u2019s scary!

By Neil Davidson THE CANADIAN PRESS Former Canada fullback Rhian Wilkinson takes another step on her young coaching career in November at the FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup in Uruguay.The 36-year-old native of Baie-D'Urfe, Que., who now calls North Vancouver home, is seen as a future Canadian women's national coach.She was on Bev Priestman's coaching staff at the CON- CACAF Women's Under-17 Championship, where Canada finished third to book its ticket to the World Cup.But Priestman subsequently left the Canadian Soccer Association to become an assistant coach with the English women's team, with Wilkinson taking over the team for the 16-team Uruguay tournament that runs Nov.13 to Dec.1.Canada opens Group D play against Colombia on Nov.14 in Montevideo's Es- tadio Charrua before taking on South Korea on Nov.17 and Spain on Nov.21.It's a tough group, with Spain having done well recently in the age group.Altitude will also be a factor.The 21-player Canadian roster features four players who have already been called up by the senior side: Jordyn Huitema, Jayde Riviere, Maya Antoine and Ariel Young.Huitema is a regular while the other three have been called into different camps.Wilkinson wants the four not to feel the pressure of their senior credentials.Wilkinson, whose first name is pronounced Ree-in, has also served as an assistant to senior women's coach Kenneth Heiner-Moller, as a youth assistant coach and coached Canada at the recent CON- CACAF Girls''Under-15 Championship.\u201cIt's been crazy, a lot of it,'' she said.\u201cBut so much experience.(It's) amazing, actually.'' She started worked on her coaching badges while still playing, paying out of her pocket to get her UEFA B licence in Wales.Then-senior coach John Herd- man, looking to use veteran players as mentors, made her an assistant coach with the Canada entry at the 2014 FIFA U-20 World Cup.With the help of Canada Soccer, she is currently working on her UEFA A coaching licence.Interestingly, Wilkinson had no interest in coaching for a long time.Canada earned its spot at the U-17 World Cup after a dramatic 2-1 win over Haiti in the match for third place at the CONCACAF Women's U-17 Championship in Florida.Calgary striker Andersen Williams scored the winning goal in the 89th minute in the match for third place.The competition lasted six games in April in Nicaragua before CONCACAF, the governing body of soccer in North and Central America and the Caribbean, pulled the plug due to violence in the capital city Managua.Play resumed some 45 days later in Florida.Wilkinson has never shied away from a challenge.After winning bronze at the Rio Olympics, she ran the Montreal marathon and crewed a yacht in the Mediterranean.After the 2015 Women's World Cup, she walked part of the famed Camino de Santiago trail in Spain with her mother.Wilkinson stepped on the field for the last time for Canada in a February 2017 friendly against Mexico at B.C.Place Stadium, capping a 14-year career that saw her win 181 caps and make 150 starts.Wilkinson played under three vastly different national team coaches in Norway's Even Pellerud, Italy's Carolina Morace and England's Herdman.\u201cI've had really good mentors but they're all very very different,'' said Wilkinson, including her club coaches and Heiner-Moller.Wilkinson has a BA in communications from the University of Tennessee and a degree in anatomy and physiology from Athabasca University.She has served as a member of the FIFA Strategic Committee, tasked with dealing with \u201cglobal strategies for football and its political, economic and social status.'' Canada is one of only six countries to have qualified for every edition of the FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup since its launch in 2008, alongside Germany, Ghana, Japan, New Zealand and North Korea.Canada

DOCTORS By Eve Glazier, M.D., and Elizabeth Ko, M.D.Dear Doctor: Just how much of a role do personality traits have in determining how long someone will live?Recent news reports have suggested that they\u2019re important, but the explanation didn\u2019t really make that much sense to me.Dear Reader: The idea that the way we view or interact with the world around us can affect our health is an intriguing one, and several studies have taken on the topic over the years.Since we\u2019re not sure which of these you\u2019re referring to, we\u2019ll look at a couple of the most recent ones.Researchers in Italy who studied a group of 29 elderly men and women aged between 90 and 101 said their findings suggest that mental outlook plays a significant role in well-being.This is a departure from other approaches to the topic of longevity, which have focused on genetics.Despite the typical health issues you would expect to see among individuals of this advanced age, the subjects of the study were found to have more self-confidence than their younger relatives, who were also included in the study.Using questionnaires and interviews, the researchers concluded that the elderly group, who had more positive feelings about their lives than their younger relatives did, exerted greater control over their lives and surroundings.They achieved this by being stubborn and domineering, personality traits that the researchers tied to their longevity.They also had strong ties to family, to their homes and land, and to their spiritual practices.Thanks to this blend of resilience and optimism, the group of elders appeared to have struck a balance that helped them weather the many challenges they faced over the decades.And while lifestyle factors like diet and exercise were not the focus of this particular study, the researchers agreed that they are also quite likely to play a role.Another study, this one based in England, analyzed the health and lifestyle data of 500,000 individuals ranging in age from 37 to 73.The researchers wondered whether being neurotic would have an effect on the length of an individual\u2019s lifespan.When they looked at the broad category of neurosis, they found a \u201cweak correlation\u201d between being neurotic and a shorter lifespan.However, when they separated the data into sub-categories, they got a surprise.It turned out that neurotic individuals who self-reported their health as either fair or poor actually had longer lifespans.Neurotic individuals who said they were in good or excellent health didn\u2019t get the same boost to longevity.In this study, the conclusion was not that the neuroses themselves extended an individual\u2019s life.Instead, the personality traits associated with being neurotic led people to be more aware of their aches and pains, and to be more aggressive in seeking medical care.With more frequent assessments and screenings, serious conditions such as cancer or cardiovascular disease would be caught earlier and would thus be more responsive to treatment.For those of us who are neither neurotic nor 90-year-olds living in rural Italy, there are still useful takeaways from the studies: Have regular medical checkups, be vigilant about basic screenings, and strive for a positive outlook even in trying times.Eve Glazier, M.D., MBA, is an internist and associate professor

But then West\u2019s persistence petered out; he returned a diamond instead of his last heart.Declarer drove out the spade queen and had his nine tricks."]
