t was a beautiful, sunny


day on Thursday, September 29th when the
community of Minnedosa
gave something back to
its doctors, both past and
present. The ribbon was
cut which opened the
beautiful outdoor pergola,
which overlooks one of
Minnedosas rolling hillsides. Lori McMillan commented that the space is a
place where patients and
their families, and even
staff , can enjoy our beautiful summer weather, and
fresh air.
At the corner of the
area is a sign that honours
the many doctors who
have served the community, dating back to 1950.
It is a place where members of the community
can reminisce about the
doctors who once healed
the community. The ribbon ceremony included
Minnedosas current doctors: Drs. Ajai Khandelwal, Dan Onyshko and
Aashima Gupta, and on
behalf of Minnedosas retired doctors, Dr. Valerie
St. John.
During the planning
of Dr. Khandelwals 75th
birthday, and the 40th
anniversary of his first
surgery (which was performed at the Minnedosa
Hospital), the idea of the
project came into existence. It was two and a
half years ago, and Dr.
Onyshko had also recently
celebrated 20 years of ser-

MCU Donates $75,000 To Clinic


By HILLARY CAMPBELL

nother community pillar has contributed to the


new Dr. Ajai Khandelwal Primary Care Centre.
Minnedosa Credit Union (MCU) has contributed $75,000
to the new clinic. Beth McNabb, President of the Board
of Directors for Minnedosa Credit Union presented the
cheque to John Mendrikis and Wayne Currah on September 27th.
The existing clinic was built in the late 1950s and
early 1960s, and is in great need of a fresh look, as well
as updated facilities to accommodate modern medical technology. John Mendrikis, who is on the board of
directors for the care centre, noted that, with the new,
modern technology and medical record programs that
are out there, we want this community and surrounding
area to be up to date.
When the existing hospital in Minnedosa was built,
there was extra property that was purchased by the hospital board. Since then, the hospital board has disbanded, however, according to Mendrikis, the arrangement
is still there that the local hospital have that. In turn, they
are transferring that to us for $1.00. The new primary
care centre will be built on this land, which is just west of
the hospital, adjacent to the highway.
A spokesperson from the Minnedosa Credit Union
commented that one of the key values of MCU is to have
a positive presence in our community. The new primary
care centre fits in very well with this value. According to
Mendrikis, A new, modern facility will be of benefit to
the community of Minnedosa, and the surrounding areas
that will also be serviced by it. With the two organizations sharing similar, community-minded goals, it seems
to point to a successful relationship.
In Minnedosa and, indeed, any community, health
care is of the utmost importance. With this in mind, the
MCUs spokesperson noted that the primary care centres objective of constructing a modern clinic to attract
doctors and continue to improve the level of health care
is a great example of the community building a better future. It is with this mentality that Mendrikis wanted to
thank Vern May for his efforts in community development, and all of his hard work with the project.
The Ajai Khandelwal Primary Care Centre board is
still seeking contributions for the project. Pending the
receipt of the $1.25 million by the end of 2016, which is
currently the goal , they would like to see construction
underway in early March 2017.
Thanks to the donation by MCU, the clinic is ever
closer to reaching that goal. MCU mentioned that their
board and staff have supported the project since day one,
and, we hope that our $75,000 contribution can help to
reach the fundraising goal to start construction in 2017.

Mental Illness Awareness Week


M

ental Illness Awareness Week includes a public


awareness campaign that aims to better inform
and educate Canadians about the issues surrounding mental illness. The theme of the week for 2016 is
Spreading Awareness Reducing Stigma. The campaign runs October 2nd to 8th and it represents many
important issues.
First and foremost, it puts a human face on mental illness by featuring the stories of people living with
mental illness. Check out this years faces: www.miaw.
ca
The campaign also highlights the incredibly wide
spectrum of those touched by mental illness, including: families, friends, care providers, teachers and all
manner of health care practitioners. It encourages all
of us - including our governments - to face and address
the issues.
Mental Illness Awareness Week brings us some
fundamental messages:
Reach out. Dont be afraid to ask for help or to ask
how you can help. This is a message for the family as
well as for the person who is suffering alone and for all
of us who know someone in trouble.
Get help early. Early intervention and treatment
can reduce long term disability and enhance recovery.
Talk about it. Share your stories to help others understand.
Share the care. Treatment and support ofpeople
with mental illness involves many types of caregivers;
each has an important role to play.
Hope. While there are no cures for severe mental
illnesses, improved treatments and community supports offer increased hope for recovery from its symp-

toms and a better quality of life.


Respect diff
erences. People with mental illnesses
and their families are as diverse as the general population.
Its crucial that we educate Canadians about the
nature of mental illness and reduce the STIGMA associated with it. Unfortunately, the stigma surrounding
mental illness often prevents suff erers from seeking
the help they need, impairs recovery, affects the quality and availability of care and needed supports and
even takes lives. Stigma also continues to keep mental
health low on the health agenda.
Mental disorders can result in a profound burden
of illness, causing suffering, disability, hospitalization
and suicide. The World Health Organization (2011)has
affirmed that mental illness is one of the largest contributors to disability worldwide.
Facts:
75% of the short term disability claims across Canada are related to Mental Health.
It has been estimated that by 2020 depressive illnesses will become the leading cause of disease burden in developed countries like Canada.
One in three Canadians will struggle with a mental
health related problem in any given year.
One in fi
ve Canadians will experiencea mental illness over the course of their lifetime.
Approximately 4,000 Canadians die by suicide
each year.
Mental illness knows no boundaries; it can aff
ect
all people, regardless of age, culture, income and education.

A big THANK YOU to all Minnedosa and area residents


for helping us meet our challenge from the
Thomas Sill Foundation. They had challenged us to
raise $50,000.00 in one and one half years and they
would give us an additional $25,000.00 for our Foundation. We are pleased to report that we are within
$5,000.00 of our goal with another few weeks to go.
The deadline is November 16th so if anyone is thinking of making a charitable donation this year
to any of our funds (Shawn Cooper Memorial
Scholarship Fund, Mdsa Museum and Heritage
Village Fund or our Smart and Caring Community
Fund) now is the time to do it.
This year the Foundation will be granting in excess
of $65,000.00 back into the community for ongoing
projects. Any of our board members are pleased to
accept your donation or go online at
www.endowmanitoba.ca.

A number of past and present staff


members of
Minnedosa Health Centre, made personal donations
and supported the various fundraisers to help build this
pergola. McMillan also mentioned the dedicated service groups who donated in memory of loved ones, and
the business owners who helped to sell their cookbooks.
Specific mention was made of Wilf Strahl and his crew
for installing the patio blocks and preparing the foundation, and to John Skoglund and his crew for their work
on the sidewalk, which made the pergola accessible for
wheelchairs and walkers.
McMillan commente
d that, this project would not
have happened without our Maintenance Department:
Kelley Gray and Lyle Usick, whose hard work to put together the pergola and sign and maintain the grounds,
has produced this lovely area we are celebrating today.
According to McMillan, it was Margaret Mead that
said it best, Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed,
its the only thing that ever has.

1886 The Odd Fellows Hall is being totally renovated and made more comfortable for its members. A new
coat of plaster and a tasty carpet are among the improvements.

1896 The temperance people of this town will welcome Dr. Taylor of Chicago for two lectures at the Methodist and Presbyterian churches. The lecture subjects are
That Boy Of Years and A Glass of Beer Analyzed.
1906 A three-year-old boy from the Newdale area was
drowned a short time ago by falling into a barrel containing about ten inches of water.
1916 As their leaves expired on Saturday last, many
soldiers have been passing through town on their way to
Camp Hughes.
1936 Minnedosa schools operate on the lowest per
capita cost of any in this district. Cost per student is
$40.06. At Shoal Lake, cost is $49.00, at Newdale the cost
is $67.55 and at Strathclair it is $60.16.
1976 People in general are honest and trustworthy according to one local beekeeper, who opened a unattended, self serve honey stand ten miles north of Minnedosa
on Highway #10. Between August 27th and September
27th, 1,500 pounds of honey was sold from the stand and
only 10 percent of it was taken without payment.
1986 Glennis Scott will be inducted into the Manitoba Sports Hall of Fame to his contribution to baseball
in Manitoba as a player and a builder.
1996 The fi re department was called out to the former
premises of TripleLeaf Alfalfa Mills to extinguish a pile of
alfalfa pellets that had ignited and burned through the
south wall of the vacant building.

2006 As of last Thursday, the RXNorth.com dispensary in Minnedosa ceased to operate. Fifteen positions
are affected.

Students Place First In Contest

Christmas Is
Coming....

By HILLARY CAMPBELL

his year, our community had two winners


for the UCT safety poster
contest. The two winners,
both from Odanah School
placed first at the international level.
Renae Stahl is a grade
eight student, and won
at the middle level at the
International UCT Poster
Contest in July. Mares
Waldner, a grade 12 student also placed first, but
in the upper level for her
poster. Mares has won
in previous years for her
posters.
Stahls poster depicted the perils of bullying,
both cyber and physical.
It showed that any kind
of bullying can have longlasting, or as the poster
says, fatal consequences.
The words on Stahls poster read, Physical or Cyber, bullying can be fatal.
Waldners poster demonstrated the need for a different kind of safety. Her
poster showed the need for
workplace safety, and used
clever word-play to get
the message across, No
safety, Know pain. Know
safety, No pain.
According to Donna
Shorrock, the UCT safety
committee chair at the
Minnedosa UCT, the

each had students enter
the competition at the local level. Winners at the
local level then went on to
the regional level. If posters were successful at the
regional level, they were

compete at the international level. According to
the UCT website, the posters are judged according
to originality, artistic ability and clarity of content.
Each of the two winners received a monetary
award of $100, which was
presented to them in front
of their class at Odanah
School by Shorrock. Shorrock also noted that we
have never had two first

place winners before.


Weve had a first place
and a second place winner,
but never two first place
winners, she said. Staff at
the school also mentioned
that they like to look on the
poster contest website in
advance of the contest to
help give students inspiration and ideas.
The poster contest is
put on by the safety program through the UCT.
Th ey promote safety for
children, and the contest
helps to create awareness
of some of the safety issues that are faced by todays society. The UCT in
Minnedosa has been putting the program on since
1994.

innedosa and District Services to Seniors will be


hosting the Be A Santa To A Senior Program for
the third year.
The program is designed to brighten the lives of
lonely or isolated seniors in our community. Seniors in
the Town of Minnedosa and area are eligible. We encourage you to become a part of this worthwhile program.
If you know someone who is alone at Christmas
please submit their name, along with some gift ideas, to
the Service to Seniors office. A Christmas tree will be set
up at the 50+ Centre by late October and will display gift
tags which hold the gift ideas, for each senior.
The public is invited to come and choose a gift tag,
purchase the gift, wrap it if possible and return it to the
office. Volunteers will deliver the gifts by mid-December. If you are not able to purchase a gift, monetary
donations are welcomed and will be used for gift purchases and wrap.
Financial status is not a factor in determining
whether or not a senior is eligible for this program. We
are hoping to have names of people who spend Christmas alone and invite you to submit the names as soon
as possible.
Services to Seniors continues to rent items such
as walkers, canes, raised toilet seats, bath seats, wheelchairs and transport chairs for short-term use at a very
nominal fee.
We continue to partner with Victoria Life Line that
offers help at the touch of a button. We maintain an average of sixty subscribers in Minnedosa and the rural
area. Information about this service is available at the
office.
A Foot Care Clinic is off ered once per week and
provided by a Foot Care Nurse. Please call our office for
contact information.
Our fourth annual Fall Information Fair is in the
planning stages and will also be held later this month.
Watch for posters.

Strathclair Student Embarks On Icy Expedition


By HILLARY CAMPBELL

mma-Jean Koscielney
recently took what
can only be described as
an extraordinary trip. The
grade 12 student went on
a school trip to Winnipeg
to the Arctic Science Day
that was held there. The
Arctic Science Day is a
promotion for the Schools
on Board program that
Koscielney applied for.
On the way home
from Winnipeg that day,
she was speaking to her
teacher and, according
to Koscielney, I just said
how cool it would be if we
actually tried to go for this
trip, and he was really excited for it, and really encouraged me to apply and
to think about it. He was
really supportive.
Once Koscielney decided she was interested
in applying for the trip, the
application process began. First, the school had
to apply. Once the school
was accepted for the program, Koscielney was then
able to apply, and had to

write a letter of intent to


send in with her application. The whole process,
she said, took a few days
to complete.
The group left on September 14th, spending
their first night in Yellowknife. They were able to
visit around the city, and
left in the morning to Kugluktuk, NU. The group
spent two nights staying in
the high school in Kugluktuk, getting to know one
of the classes. The students there showed them
around Kugluktuk, visiting some historical sites.
Koscielney noted that it
was really beautiful there.
Once they boarded
the ship, they did not disembark until the end of
the trip, in Pond Inlet.
They stopped for stations,
but did not leave the ship.
On board with her were
40 scientists, 40 ship crew,
nine other students and
two teachers from across
Canada, a film crew, and a
coordinator.
Koscielney
commented that her favourite

DOUBLE DOWN WITH DEKALB

part of the trip was when


the ship was breaking ice,
when we saw our first ice,
everyone got really excited, and we all went on
deck. When breaking the
ice, you could hear it crack
and pop, and the ship
would come up on top of
the ice, and it would crash
down. When asked if she
was afraid at all during
this, she said I dont think
so. I was more excited, to
be honest. That there is
something so big that it
could break this ice.
Another
highlight
of Koscielneys trip was
seeing a polar bear, me
and another guy just happened to be standing on
the bridge when one of the
scientists saw it, she said
excitedly.
Once the ship reached
Pond Inlet, NU, they had
the same sort of experience they had in Kugluktuk, where they met with
the students at the school
there, and had a discussion with them on what
each of them recognized
as social problems in the

area. One which was frequently mentioned was


the infrastructure. We
had most of the same concerns, which I thought
was really interesting,
said Koscielney, and she
added that, if I could, I
wouldnt mind going back
to Pond Inlet. It was really
beautiful and people were
so friendly.
However, she noted
that the program is just for
highschool students, and
this will be her last year
of highschool, if I could
do it again, I would. Definitely. She concluded the
interview by saying that it
was a really great experience, and if anybody ever
has the opportunity, then
they should definitely try
to apply. More information is available on the
Schools on Board website
or facebook page.

n Monday September 19th, a group of


people met in Minnedosa
and agreed to formally establish the South Mountain Refugee Sponsorship
Committee[SMRSC].
Representing several communities south of Riding
Mountain, this newly established group has made
a humanitarian commitment to help a refugee family in need of resettlement.
Until very recently Canada
was the only country in the
world and remains one
of only a handful to allow
private citizens to sponsor
refugees. As private sponsors, citizens take on both
the costs and obligations
associated with resettling
refugees in Canada, providing both financial and
emotional support for the
duration of the sponsorship, usually one year.
Although the South
Mountain Committee is
non-denominational, they

will work with the Winnipeg-based Mennonite


Central Committee (MCC)
during the application and
sponsorship process. In
the upcoming weeks and
months the local group will
be working on a refugee
settlement plan laid out
by Citizenship and Immigration Canada and, very
importantly, raising the
funds required for this undertaking. This small refugee family would require
approximately
$30,000
for one year of sponsorship. For those who would
like to make a donation,
tax-receiptable donation
cheques can be made
out to Mennonite Central
Committee Manitoba with
the following in the memo
line: South Mountain Refugee Sponsorship Committee account, and can be
mailed to the SMRSC Treasurer at Box 306, Erickson,
MB R0J 0P0.
When we are faced
with heart-breaking images of suffering, despair
and death, we may ask
ourselves: What can we do
to help? The very successful and unique Canadian
model for private refugee
sponsorship was created
in 1979 as a response to the
fl ight of thousands from
Vietnam. As with the recent response to the Syrian refugee crisis, Canadians welcomed thousands
who undertook dangerous
and harrowing journeys in
their quest for sanctuary.
Helping refugees resettle
in a safe country saves lives
and provides hope. Most
refugees will not end up
on Canadian shores seeking asylum but the responsibility for them must be
shared globally.
Plan to attend the next
community meeting on
Monday, October 17th at
7 p.m. at the Minnedosa
United Church Hall if you
would like to support the
family with settlement aspects such as housing, employment, recreation, and
transportation. If you are
interested in becoming a
part of the South Mountain
Sponsorship group, please

October Is Fire Prevention Month


By HILLARY CAMPBELL

ctober is Fire Prevention Month. The Town


of Minnedosa is very lucky
to have a team of such
dedicated individuals who
are ready to act when crisis
strikes.
Th is past year, there
were a number of fires in
the area. Fire Chief DeanJordan noted that there
were a few areas of concern
with each situation, one
being that an exit in one
of the fires was blocked off
by personal items, leaving
occupants with only one
exit. He also stressed the
importance of making sure
that people have working
smoke alarms.
Th
e Minnedosa Fire
Department is a volunteer
department with 19 active
members. Dean Jordan is
the Fire Chief, Mike Kowal
and Perry Burgess are Deputy Chiefs, and Jon Kowal
and Jason Cooper are Captains. The dedicated group
who are on call 24-7 and
respond to calls whether
they are at work, a family
event, or in the middle of
the night.
When members join
the department, they, undergo nationally recognized training through the
Manitoba Fire College in
Brandon, commented Jordan. Th e members meet
twice a month for additional in-house training and
attend other courses when
off ered. The types of calls
that the fire department receives are varied.
According to Jordan,
we respond to fires, building alarms, water rescue
situations, and due to
Minnedosas location, a
number of vehicle accidents. With three highway
junctions in the Minnedosa
area, the high number of
intersections and increased
traffi c along the highway,
Jordan said that, a large
portion of our call volume
relates to motor vehicle collisions and accidents. Because of this, we routinely
train with vehicle extrication tools to ensure we are
profi cient and able to effi ciently extricate accident
victims when necessary.
Th is would include wellknown tools, such as the
jaws of life.
Th e dedicated members go into situations that
are inherently dangerous,
and because of this they,

take every measure possible, including specialized
training, to ensure we are
protecting our firefighters
as well as other emergency
personnel, such as EMS
and Police, added Jordan.
Jordan also mentioned
that the equipment that
they use is kept up-to-date
and in good condition. For
a small town, Minnedosa
has a very modern fire
department. Jordan also
noted that the department
provides tours of the fire
hall to various groups such
as daycares and schools if
they are interested.

Many people think


that if a fi re were to start
in their home they would
have time to gather special
keepsakes before leaving
the home. The reality is that
a house can be fully engulfed with fi re in as little
as two minutes. Meaning it
will start to fill with smoke
in less time. Although its
hard to lose a keepsake, its
harder to lose a loved-one
and people need to have a
plan to safely and quickly
leave the house. Once safely outside, call 911 and do
not re-enter the home until the fire department has
given you the all-clear.

that I really want to be involved in the community
and the schools. Fleury
concluded the interview
by noting that its been a

Tornado Left A Path Of Destruction


By HILLARY CAMPBELL

n August, the community outside of Erickson had a tornado sweep


through it. Now, after
having time to assess the
damage, Joyce Robinson took The Tribune on a
tour of the tornados path.
Robinson, who sat in her
living room watching the
storm as it spun through
her yard, noted that, you
just freeze; you dont have
time to do anything else.
According to Robinson,
with the appearance that
the trees were being twisted in different directions,
she thinks that there may
actually have been two tornadoes that touched down
in some places, although
she could not say with certainty.
Many of the trees in
the area were uprooted
and twisted in half from
the twister. It left a signifi cant amount of brush
tangled in and around her
yard. Some of it went this
way, and some of it went
the other. It was wicked,
said Robinson, it was almost whirling them. She
was lucky, and the tornado
did not do any damage to
her home. In fact, people
in the area had minimal
damage to their homes,
some only needing to fix

some roof damage. However, in the case of Robinsons neighbour, while


the home was not greatly
affected, a number of outbuildings and sheds were
torn off the ground, leaving nothing in their place.
Do you realize that out of
16 or 17 places that it hit,
it never wrecked a house,
and nobody lost their
life? It had more luck than
brains, commented Robinson.
With all of the trees
that have been torn up into
tangled messes, Robinson
noted that she worried
about the fi re hazard that
it will become, once things
begin to dry out. There is
no one who is in charge
of clearing the debris,
the job falls to the property owners. The problem
with trying to clear it, said
Robinson, is it isnt that

you dont want to, but its


too much hassle to get at
them. With the tangle
that the tornado caused,
it is diffi cult for a person
to cut things down without aff ecting the balance,
and having branches come
crashing down. However, to her knowledge, the
wildlife in the area has remained unaffected. When
looking at the hillsides in
the area, which once provided a view of lush greenery, now there are only
trees that have been twisted and torn down.
Th e last big tornado
that Robinson saw in the
area was back in 1982, and
that one caused significant
damage as well. Before
that, Robinson commented that she has heard there
was one in 1944, but that it
was before her time there.

Recreation Report
By

NICOLE
SYNCHYSHYN

ctober is finally here,


and with it came
cold, wet, windy weather.
Th ere are still plenty of
things to do to get out and
get active!
Go for a walk around
the nature trails, see if you
can see any animals getting ready to hibernate.
Rake your leaves, take a
yoga class or join Zumba
for some exercise twice a
week. Have you checked
out the gym since it expanded? Fitness Centre
memberships are also
available at the Rec Office.
Th
e change in weather has some people itching to hit the ice for the
season. Rec Hockey is set
to start on November 25th.
This is a great opportunity

for children of all ages to


get out, learn some new
skills and have some fun!
Our Toddler Skate
program had a lot of interest this year. We have
15 children between the
ages of two to four eager
to get out and learn how
to skate.
Preschool Music will
begin again mid October,
this program is very popular with young children
and fi lls up quickly! Once
again we have teamed
up with the Parent Child
Connection and Denise
Dewar to bring free quality programs for children
under the age of five.
For more information
on our fall/winter programs feel free to give me

Little Sprouts Donate


Veggies To Food Bank

a call, or stop by the office.


Fun Time Pottery
made an appearance
in Minnedosa this past
weekend. Several people
spent their Sunday afternoon getting creative and
a little messy. I cant wait
to see the finished products; everyone did a wonderful job.
Our 19th annual
Sports Dinner featuring
Marty McSorley is less
then two weeks away! All
proceeds from the event
are given out through
grants to enhance sports
and recreation within
the community.
Have
you purchased your tickets yet? Come out, enjoy
some entertainment and
support a good cause for
the community.
Interested in volunteering your time this fall?
We are always looking for
volunteers to help run
programs throughout the
year. Swing by and talk to
me about any ideas you
may have!

During our Annual
General meeting (AGM)
the minutes of the 2015
AGM were read. Business
arising from the minutes
was a motion stating That
the Manitoba Health Auxiliaries Association be

necessary due to difficulties in filling executive
positions. The motion was
voted on and passed. The

spoke to us about Naturopathic Medicine. This
form of medicine looks
at the entire person not

it is a form of health care
rather than disease care.
Mindy spoke about the
principles, treatment and
becoming a Naturopath.
Presently courses are offered in Toronto and Vancouver. It was an interesting topic and we left with
several good tips.
Later in the afternoon
we had an opportunity to
share success stories. It is
always interesting to hear

Youre thought
about so often
in loving memory.
For you were all
the special things
a Grandpa ought to be.
Weve all missed
you being here
since you went away.
But happiness
you brought us
is remembered every day.
So may you find a
gentle peace
in your eternal rest.
Well always love you
Grandpa.
You really were the best.
Love you to the

You were a Dad
who was so special
and who was loved
so very much
and brought so
much happiness
to the many hearts you
touched.
You were always
kind and caring
and so understanding too,
and if help was
ever needed Dad
it so freely came from you.
You were a gift to all the world
and brought joy to everyone,
and life has never
been the same
ever since you have
been gone.
Missing you lots,
Love Jayme, Boyd and
Raechell.

Dear Reena,

By

REENA NERBAS
Dear Reena,
Do you have a recipe
for making your own bubble bath? Wilma

Dear Wilma,
I love this recipe because it uses common
household
ingredients.
Bubble Nut Bath Recipe:
In a bowl, combine half
cup (125mL) honey, quar-

19

Friday, October 7, 2016

ter cup (60 mL) gentle liquid soap, 1 tbsp. (15 mL)
almond or vanilla extract
and 1 tbsp. (15mL) glycerin. Shake and add to bath.
Or combine 1 tbsp. (15mL)
shampoo with one eighth
cup (25mL) safflower (or
canola) oil; pour under
running water. Tip: While
you are at it, why not sprinkle a handful of rose petals

I have a laundry problem; a lip repair (like Lypsol) went through the
washer and dryer and has
left greasy stains on the
front of my good sweatshirt in several places. Any
ideas how this can be handled or is this now a permanent stain? Also, when
grease stains appear on
pillow cases (after guests)
how can I get them out?

Marilyn
Hi Marilyn,
Here are two options
for both challenges: Soak
fabrics in hot water and

Oxy Clean or soak the fabric separately in half-cup


Arm and Hammer washing
soda and enough hot water
to cover the clothes for 30
minutes. Wash as usual.
Air dry. Repeat until stains
are gone. If all else fails,
you can zap stains using
RIT dye remover according to the directions on the
box. Note fabric colour will
be significantly lightened.
Hints from Linda:
If you dont bake a lot
and store baking powder
in your cupboard for over
a year old, it may not be
active. Instead use it in the
laundry; its a wonderful

whitener/brightener. Just
dump the old baking powder in a white wash and it
brightens up the load.
I live in a high rise
building and it is a must
that I clean the drains,
sinks, showers andtoilets
with baking soda and vinegar and hot, not boiling,
water. I lived in Winnipeg in high rises for many
years and my neighbour
who was a retired plumber,
advised me that if done on
a regular basis every three
months I would never
need to call him. I have
stayed with that trick ever
since and have never had
to call a plumber. No harsh
chemicals just products
