RAVINGS
By Mike Hickey
BOXINg
What could be one of the worst nightmares that a guy could ever
experience?? You get into a boxing match with the missus and
she cleans your clock. Yes you heard right!! Now mind you
it was only on a TV screen using our new video game system,
but still it was pretty painful!! No not my body, just my ego.
Now these games are not perfect (obviously) but their ability to
translate your body movements and put it all on the TV is truly
remarkable.
So ... hiding the embarrassment of my boxing defeat, we moved
on to table tennis. Once upon a time I was a fairly experienced
table tennis player, but that experience failed me as I went
down to further defeat and humiliation. But, with my never
say die personality, I went about practicing my table tennis
with renewed vigour. I moved up from beginner to amateur
to professional and from there demanded a rematch with the
missus. Victory!!!!! Not even close, I won each game!!!
Just as in life, success usually takes a lot of practice. But success
isnt just doing the same things over and over again. To truly
develop new skills you have to experiment and try new ideas.
What happens when I do this and if I change this what happens??
Eective practice isnt so much about simply doing or playing, it
is also about learning and adapting.
For instance, one of the things that I have learned is to never
challenge the missus to a game until I have achieved some real
level of skill at it or even better, fnd a sneaky way to win without
skill. I am thinking that if I can convince Xbox to get a better
handle on reality, the missus should be way too short to ever
give me a head shot. Another thing I havent tried, is to see what
would happen if I kick her real good. Against the rules, who
knows but could be worth a try.
Alternatively, I could adopt a more
mature attitude towards losing. You
know, Its not whether you win or lose
but how you play the game. I could
do that you know, but somehow it just
doesnt seem as appealing as trying to
kick her butt. 800

CONNECTIONS PART III
A short note on Floras background her father (Frederic
Hussey sr.) and her mother (Louisa) had four children
Frederick Jr., Flora, Percy and Waldron. Te Hussey family
immigrated to Winnipeg from Belfast, Ireland in 1889. Frederic,
the father, lived only eight years in Canada his widow opened
a boarding house to support the family. In 1901 the three oldest
children did their ge3st to help their mother; Frederick earned
$400; Flora, $17; Percy, $250. Tree years later Flora was still
living at home with her mother and brothers, but working as a
stenographer.
Flo found a position at the Manitoba Government Telephone
Company for the next tine years. Te labour situation was very
poor at the time and a general strike occurred in Winnipeg in
1918-19. the telephone company had a policy that a mother with
children could not work for them. Since her husband Harrys
departure in 1915, Flo was a single mother of two children.
She kept this information hidden for a time; fnally, fnding it
increasingly dif cult to keep enough food on the table or even to
keep track of two lively sons, she sought help from her estranged
husbands family in Hatfeld Point, New Brunswick.
Afer arranging for some time o, in 1916, Flora took the
boys by train to New Brunswick for what she believed would
be a temporary stay. when she reluctantly lef them with their
grandparents that day, she did not dream she would never see
her elder son again or that Clarence would forever feel she had
abandoned him.
Flo found her in-laws, Charles and Ella Jane Nobles, and their
son Charles, worked hard on their Kings County homestead.
Fish were available from Belleisle Bay; and crops could be grown
on their land. Te Hatfeld Point home seemed the best situation
for her sons at this dif cult time.
Apparently the grandparents did not explain to the boys the
reason for their parents separation and why they were living in
New Brunswick. If Flora had told them, it apparently did not
register with Clarence who was eight years old, and with Earle,
who was three years younger. Worse than that, they [Charles
and Ella Jane] did not deliver Floras letters to her sons or speak
of her at all. Her name as absolutely forbidden in the home and
soon Earle forgot her. Clarence didnt. Nor did he forgive her.
Clarence felt he had been abandoned by his mother, but for
Flora their stay with the grandparents was to be only temporary
for the boys.
In 1919 Flora wrote Charles and Ella Jane that she felt she was
now able to support the boys and that she was coming for them.
Te grandparents immediately sent word to Harry in Tucson,
Arizona. He made contact with his sister, Fannie Florence
(Nobles) McCoy, in Boston,
to take the boys to her house
until he was well enough to
care for them. Harry Nobles
(now calling himself Harry
Nolan) told her to tell the USA
border of cials that the boys
surname was now Nolan and
not Nobles.
Fannie arrived at Hatfeld Point
one day and the next day lef
for Boston with the youngsters.
Because of the name change,
Flora never found her sons.
To be continued. 127

Perhaps no other time of year is more anticipated
than spring. After a cold winter, many people await
the arrival of spring like a child awaits the arrival of
Christmas morning.
Among the more popular annual rites of spring is
the road trip. A chance to tackle the great outdoors
with the spring wind in your hair, spring road trips
have come to define a season beloved by outdoor
enthusiasts. For those planning their own road trip
this season, consider the following tips to ensure
yours goes off without a hitch.
Travel Tips to Help Road Trippers
Hit the Ground Running
Give your car a thorough wash. While it might
seem obvious to get your car washed once spring
arrives, few might be aware that a thorough car
wash pays practical as well as aesthetic
dividends. Over the course of a typical winter,
vehicles are exposed to all sorts of harmful
elements, including salt used to improve icy road
conditions and slush and grime leftover over
from winter snowstorms. These elements can
create deposits that make it difficult for a car to
run smoothly, resulting in poor fuel efficiency
and possibly harming the vehicle even further.
Don't forget the first aid kit, but pack it last. Road
trips, especially those with active kids along for
the ride, often include a few cuts or scrapes.
That's why it's always wise to take inventory of
the first aid kit before heading out on the road.
Make sure the first aid kit is fully stocked since
the last time you hit the road. In case of a
legitimate emergency, you will want the first aid
kit readily available and won't want to waste time
digging it out from under everything else in the
trunk of the car.
Give a passenger a spare set of car keys. No one
plans on losing their car keys; it just happens
from time to time. At home, this can be a
nuisance. On a road trip, particularly one to a
remote area, this can be a disaster. While you
don't have to plan on losing your keys, you can
plan on what you'll do if you lose them by making
a spare set for a passenger along for the trip.
That way, if your travels take you on a hike in
some isolated woodlands or to soak up some rays
at the beach, you'll have a spare set of keys
readily available should yours end up missing.

legitimate emergency, you will want the first aid
kit readily available and won't want to waste time
digging it out from under everything else in the
trunk of the car.
Give a passenger a spare set of car keys. No one
plans on losing their car keys; it just happens
from time to time. At home, this can be a
nuisance. On a road trip, particularly one to a
remote area, this can be a disaster. While you
don't have to plan on losing your keys, you can
plan on what you'll do if you lose them by making
a spare set for a passenger along for the trip.
That way, if your travels take you on a hike in
some isolated woodlands or to soak up some rays
at the beach, you'll have a spare set of keys
readily available should yours end up missing.

HAMPTON PUBlIC REgIONAl
lIBRARY UPdATE
By Trudy Kelly Forsythe, library committee
member
Started in April 2006, the Hampton Public
Regional Library Committee became an ad
hoc committee of the Town of Hampton in
October 2007. Over the years, it has held
numerous meetings and initiated a library
site selection study as part of the Town of Hampton recreation
master plan. Tat study looked at such locations as the Hampton
Courthouse, a standalone building on Main Street and as an
addition to Hampton High School.
For various reasons, the optimal choice was a stand-alone
building. However, at this time, Town Council does not support
the building and operation of a stand-alone public library. But,
at the August 2011 library committee meeting, the Mayor and
Council did say they would support the inclusion of a library
as part of a multi-use facility in Hampton if the town moves
forward on such a project.
Did you know?
Te New Brunswick Public Library System provides access to a
provincial collection of more than 1.8 million items, including
books, music and movies.
Te New Brunswick Public Library System oers a variety of
programs for adults and children such as story hour and public
lectures as well as services such as reference, Inter-Library loan
and public access workstations.
New Brunswick Public Library programs and services are
designed to respond to the educational, informational, cultural
and recreational needs of residents of the province.
Te library system supports economic and social development
and promotes self-reliance by providing opportunities for New
Brunswickers to enhance their knowledge and their creative
capabilities.
What do you think? We want to know what you think about
having a public library in Hampton. Watch the next Hampton
Herald for information on a survey to give the Town and library
committee your feelings about this topic. If you would like
more information now, or want to get involved, contact Richard
Malone at the Town of ce (832-6400, richard.malone@nb.aibn.
com) or committee chair Robyn Baxter (763-2577, b4of4@

MISENER, ElIZABETH BETTY HElEN
(OvERHOlT)
Much to the sadness of family and friends, Betty
Misener, 90, of Hampton, NB, widow of H.
Maxwell Max Misener, passed away February 6,
2012 at St. Josephs Hospital in Saint John. She was
born in St. Catharines, ON, daughter of the late
Lancelot and Teodora (Wigg) Overholt.
Betty, widely known for her bright and
infectious smile, cheery outlook, compassion and
intelligence, enjoyed a wide circle of friends and a social life that
brought her pleasure every day. She also took great joy in her
garden, the birds at her feeders and reading the latest novel.
Ever the loving mother, time spent with her daughters
paddling on the river, shopping, the exchanging of books and the
long phone calls was a highlight for Betty, who was also always
willing and able to debate with her sons-in-law over social issues
and politics.
During the Air Force career of her beloved Max, Betty lived in
cities from PEI to Saskatchewan before settling in Hampton in
1972.
During her younger years, Betty, always active in her community,
was a volunteer for both the Red Cross and Hamptons Food
Basket. She was also a longtime, cherished member of the
Hampton United Church and its U.C.W., and more recently, the
Hampton Seniors Resource Centre. She was also a member of the
Ossekeag Singers, some of whom sang at Bettys widely-attended
90
th
birthday celebration in June.
She is survived by four daughters, Nancy Misener (David
Heard) of White Rock, BC, Victoria Robinson (Ron) of Toronto,
ON, Jenny Misener-Davidson (Terry) of Toronto, ON, Melinda
Misener (Joel Wiseman) of Kelowna, BC; son-in-law, Albert
Roche of Carleton Place, ON ; grandchildren, Sarah, Elliot, Lauren,
Matthew, Elizabeth and Teodore; many nieces and nephews. She
was predeceased by her eldest daughter, Beverly Roche.
Bettys family would like to thank the Extra Mural nurses who, in
recent years, enabled her to stay in the home she loved, as well as
the caring sta at St. Josephs Hospital when she could not.
Te funeral was held February 28, 2012 from Reids Funeral
Home, Hampton, to Hampton United Church. Rev. Dr. Philip
Grif n-Allwood of ciated. Te organist was Cheryl Bezanson
and Hampton United Church Choir provided music. Memories
of Betty were shared by son-in-law, Albert Roche.
A reception followed in the church hall. Interment will take place
in Maple Lawn Cemetery, Louth, ON at a later date. Memorials
may be made to Hampton United Church or a charity of your
choice. Online donations and condolences may be made at:

HMS NEWS
By Hayley Doucette
During my time at Hampton Middle School,
I have never been so proud to be a wildcat.
Afer recent incidents in schools far and
wide, HMS has made extreme eorts to
bring one topic in particular to the publics
attention: bullying.
HMS students and sta were stunned afer hearing about the
recent increase in bullying, not just in our own school, but in
others as well. I will admit, when bullying takes place in a setting
such as school, where a child is expected to be each and every
day throughout the week, it is shocking, and quite terrifying.
So why am I proud to be a wildcat when all of this is
happening? Because of the tremendous eorts HMS is making
to bring the troublesome problem to the publics attention. In
December, students made an independent statement by wearing
pink on their own to stand up to bullies everywhere. Te sta
took this remarkable statement and turned it into something
more. Te next week, HMS held a bullying awareness day,
where students wore blue, another anti-bullying colour, to show
their support. Posters and large banners were put up around
the school to advertise the importance of putting a stop to the
never-ending problem. Teachers spoke with students, personal
experiences were shared and sta worked hard to prevent the
problem from happening.
But, was the action only temporary? Certainly not. Te levels of
bullying have gone down tremendously, and those great eorts
continue. Pink T-shirts were sold for the February 29
th
pink
day, another day for bullying awareness. I feel students have
never been so willing to work together, or as closely, as they are
now. I thank the sta, especially Mrs. Dingee and Mrs. Ketchum-
Boudreau (HMSs principal and vice-principal) for making our
school a comfortable, cheerful place to be, just as it always has
been, but more so. Make your mark and stand up!
Hayley Doucette is a Grade 8 student at HMS. 114

approached, they would ask the old man, What kind of people
live in this city? Te old man would answer, What kind of
people live in the place where you came from? If the travelers
answered, Only bad people live in the place where we came
from, the old man would reply, Continue on; you will fnd only
bad people here.
But if the travelers answered, Good people live in the place
where we came from, then the old man would say, Enter, for
here too, you will fnd only good people. CC17

HAMPTON-PIggS PEAk NEWS
Sam Mncina, the principal of Peak Central, recently visited
Richard Matsenjwa, the new principal at Fundukuwela. John
Lovett was there and tells us one of the topics we discussed
was the personal and grass roots assistance of Hampton. Unlike
many causes, which solicit funds and where the funds disappear
into an anonymous vat, the Hampton Partnership benefts the
students directly and at a very personal level. We can see the
results - children who otherwise would be condemned to a life
of poverty or possibly worse, are provided with the opportunity
to escape the cycle into which so many others are trapped. Te
results are tangible when we see them graduate and move on
to higher education or to employment for which, without an
education, they would not be qualifed. We have a growing list
of successes for which Hampton must take credit and be proud.
One of the keys to our success is our thriving Starfsh program.
We currently have 65 individuals or organizations in Hampton
supporting one or more students in Piggs Peak. On Sunday,
February 26
th
the Partnership had an Appreciation Night for
Starfsh Sponsors. Karen Mandy summarized the importance of
the Starfsh program in a letter to those attending.
Having lived and worked in the community here in Piggs Peak
for the past 23 years, I have seen how, in recent years, the strain
of HIV and AIDS have impacted families at a grass-roots level.
Today we see grandmothers and school-going children heading
the majority of households in this area; homes, where a whole
generation is missing. Many households struggle to put food
on the table; and in a country where education is not free and
a school uniform is compulsory, more and more children are
sitting at home frustrated and doing everything (and I mean,
everything) they can simply to survive.
Without your support these children would not be able to aord
an education; but far more than that, what the Starfsh Program
quite simply does is give these young people hope and a future.
You step in at a time in their lives when they are most vulnerable
and you provide them with an alternative way forward - you
open a door for them that would have otherwise remained
frmly closed. As Westerners we see education as a right; to these
young people, it is a privilege, and to most of them, it is a means
to escape the life in which, (through circumstances not of their
own creation) they have found themselves trapped.
I honestly cannot express in words how valuable and precious
is the gif that you give to each one of our Starfsh students.
If you would like to become a Starfsh sponsor please visit our
website www.hamptonpiggspeak.ca or call me, Mark Bettle, at
832-0003. 110

At Your Service...
MOORE FROM OTTAWA
Hon. Rob Moore, P.C, M.P.
Since it is now tax time, I want to remind you
of some of the ways you may be able to save on
your 2011 taxes. Since 2006, our government
has helped Canadians by reducing taxes in
over 120 ways. Tese include: cuts to the GST,
reductions in income taxes, the introduction
of the landmark Tax-Free Savings Account and targeted tax cuts
for families, seniors and job creators. We have helped a typical
Canadian family save nearly $3,100 on average, per year.
Tis year, I want you to get the most out of your 2011 tax
return. In this article, you will fnd a list of some of the valuable
tax credits that are available.
Our government has introduced Pension Income Splitting,
which allows any Canadian resident who receives qualifying
pension income to allocate to their spouse up to one half of their
income. We have also doubled the Pension Income Credit from
$1000 to $2000.
We have increased the Age Amount to help seniors keep more
money to meet their retirement needs. Also, we are providing
Canadians with the Caregiver Amount for Canadians that are
caring for a loved one. Tis responsibility is both emotionally
and fnancially difcult and under our government, a caregiver
may be eligible to claim up to $4,282.
Our government is providing many other tax credits including;
the Canada Child Tax Credit that allows Canadian families to
claim a tax credit of over $2000 per child, the Childrens Fitness
Tax Credit, which allows parents to claim a tax credit on up to
$500 and the Child Arts Tax Credit which allows parents to claim
up to $500 as well. You may also be eligible to take advantage of
the Volunteer Firefghters Tax Credit which amounts to $3,000,
or the Hiring Credit for Small Business that provides up to
$1,000.
We believe that Canadian families know how to best save,
invest or spend their money; not government, which is why we
will continue to promote an environment where Canadians keep
more of their hard earned money. We will continue to support
Canadian seniors, Canadian families and Canadian employers.

kEY TAg SUPPORT - lIFE-CHANgINg FOR
CHAMPS
When Annelise was born missing part of her lef arm, her
parents felt shocked, worried and very alone. Te War Amps
Child Amputee (CHAMP) Program had a life-changing impact,
allaying their fears and helping to put Annelise on the road to
future independence.
As New Brunswick residents receive their annual War Amps
key tags, they will fnd enclosed a letter from Annelise explaining
the mailings theme of Growing up with CHAMP.
In it, she describes how CHAMP was there from the start,
providing funding for artifcial limbs, regional seminars, tools to
deal with issues like teasing and staring and answers to questions
about driving and joining the workforce.
She also expresses her pride at being asked as a teen to be a
CHAMP Junior Counsellor. Not only had I come full circle, but
I also became part of the amputees helping amputees tradition
started by Te War Amps more than 90 years ago, she says.
Public support of Te War Amps Key Tag Service allows child
amputees across Canada to continue to grow up with CHAMP.
Key tags protect any
keys, not just car keys!
Since 1946, Te War
Amps has returned more
than one million sets
of keys, and the service
is more vital than ever,
with the extremely high
replacement cost of keys
and remote devices.
Each key tag has a
confdentially coded
number. Should the keys
be lost, the fnder need
only call the toll-free
number on the back of
the tag, or deposit them
in any mailbox, and the
keys will be returned to
the owner by bonded
courier.
Te War Amps receives
no government grants.
For more information,
or to order key tags, call
toll-free 1-800-250-3030
or visit waramps.ca. 813

TIP OF THE HAT
Hampton Highs PSSC would like to extend a
Tip of the Hat to Tina Whitney. Last year Tina
noticed that some of our grads were struggling
trying to meet with the substantial costs
associated with graduation and its associated
activities. Tis past fall Tina, with the help of
Krista Hovey, established the Adopt a Grad
program at Hampton High. Tinas vision was to fnd fnancial
sponsorships for 10 grads in need. Te program would help defer
the costs of grad pictures, formal prom attire, grad fees, costs of
grad dinners etc, helping make all the activities associated with
graduation available to all grads!
Te Adopt a Grad program has been a huge success due largely
to Tina and all her hard work. Tanks Tina, you have a big heart
and you always have time for our students.
If you would like to send a Tip of the Hat to acknowledge
someone who gives of themselves to their community without
recognition or pay, just send us their name, community and a brief
description of their acts of kindness. See page two for our contact
information. 124

BIRTHdAY PlANS
Our birthday is fast approaching. As I mentioned last issue, on
April 6
th
the Hampton Herald will be thirty years old. Coming
up in October the Valley Viewer reaches another milestone,
turning twenty. While thirty is only one year more than twenty-
nine, for some reason the round numbers always seem to
hold more authority! And are generally deemed more worthy
of celebration. So we here at Ossekeag have been contemplating
how to best celebrate these anniversaries.
If this were a thirtieth wedding anniversary it would traditionally
be celebrated with pearls. Well, I have no pearls to hand out, not
even pearls of wisdom. What I do have is a request. To mark these
special dates we propose to publish our top tips for building
better communities. Tat is afer all what Ossekeag Publishing
is all about. We solicit your editorial on all of the great things
happening in the communities we serve and at no charge to you
to submit, or to you to receive, we share that information with
everyone in the community. For our anniversary we want to
take this one step further. It is our hope to publish tips on simple
things we can do to help build better communities, whether it is
donating to the food bank, picking up litter when we are walking
or reading to kindergarten students at the local school. We
encourage you to send in your ideas and tips for us to compile
and share. And more . . . look around your community and take
note of those people who are role models for building better
communities and tell us about them. Te person who continues
to coach minor hockey long afer their own kids have grown
and moved on. Te person who is always frst to step forward
to help a family in need. Te student who organizes food drives.
April is also Volunteer Month, so what a
great time to acknowledge the people in
our communities who do so much to make
our place in the world so amazing.
To inspire each of us: Wherever a man
turns he can fnd someone who needs him.
~Albert Schweitzer . . . and . . . If you think
you are too small to be eective, you have
never been in bed with a mosquito. ~Betty
Reese. 801
