It is reviewed annually and revised as needed. The Lodge has recently updated our plan and adjusted the priorities and objectives. The revised copy is posted on the Required Information Board located by the fireplace. CONTINUOUS QUALITY IMPROVEMENT BALANCED SCORECARD A Balanced Scorecard is connected to our strategic objectives.

It is one way to ensure we 2 Lodger July/august 2015 By Linda Geisel are all working towards the same goal and to achieve success from resident-centered care to sound financial management. RESIDENT/FAMILY SATISFACTION SURVEY The Resident and Family Satisfaction Survey is conducted annually with residents of the Lodge. It is designed to measure resident satisfaction. The results are compiled and used to improve our services. Residents are encouraged to complete the surveys and when necessary, with the assistance of family members or entirely by family members. In analyzing survey results a combination of qualitative and quantitative methods were used to identify the areas we do well and to seek out opportunities for improvement. The outcome of the 2014 surveys are completed and a copy of the summary is posted on the Required Information Board. QUESTIONS?

We match isolated seniors with a volunteer who will check-in via a telephone call at a scheduled time to ensure the client is well. If the client does not answer the phone during the scheduled call time, the volunteer will call the Lodge and we will then follow up with the client. In addition to a security check, many volunteers and clients form friendship over the telephone line. Once a year, we bring them together to enjoy a social visit. Our thanks to them. Another thank you to the Nutrition Care Department for preparing a delicious meal. Some of our guests are Dorothy Walters, Joanne Fyfe and Audrey MacLeod. This year, nine clients and eight volunteers attended a luncheon organized by the Outreach Department.

These grade 3 and 4 children are eager to take part in regular visits occurring once every two months. Some have developed friendship with our residents and enjoyed returning to see their “friends”. We look forward to their return in the new school year. Joyce Ruest and Jeana Reilly enjoyed a bingo game with the students. This is a natural match: Owen happens to be the great-grandson of Peggy Hill. Elva Cousins is one of newer residents. This is the first time she received visits from these young friends. Seated to her left is Heather Taylor. Both young children and old people have a lot of time on their hands. That's probably why they get along so well. – Jonathan Carroll Joan Masterman and Odette Benoit also joined in a game with the visiting students. 6 Lodger July/August 2015 To the followers of Craig Smith's articles, please note that the Caregiver Corner is not available this month. It will return in the September edition of the Lodger. Senior Citizens Month One-Third of our Residents are over the Age of 90 June is Senior Citizens' month. Annually we take this time to celebrate longevity by recognizing the nonagenarians and centenarians among us. Out of 130 residents currently residing at the Lodge, one-third is over the age of 90, two of those are over 100 years old. Imagine the contribution they made to our community. We are grateful to the Family Council who once again purchased the corsages and boutonnieres for the celebrants. The recognition event is topped off with a delicious strawberry shortcake treat.

July/August 2015 Lodger 7 Joyeux Copains Ce que nous n'avons pas eux ont des champs à perte de vue. Nous avons des serviteurs alors qu'eux servent les autres. Nous achetons nos denrées et eux les cultivent. Nous avons des murs autour de la propriété pour nous protéger. Eux ont des amis qui les protègent. » Le père en resta muet. Le fils rajouta : « Merci Papa de m'avoir montré tout ce que nous n'avons pas. » Un jour, le père d'une très riche famille amène son fils à la campagne pour lui montrer comment vivent les gens pauvres. Ils passent quelques jours dans la ferme d'une famille qui n'a pas beaucoup à leur offrir. Au retour, le père demande à son fils - « As-tu aimé ton séjour ? » - « C'était fantastique, papa ! » - « As-tu vu comment les gens pauvres vivent ? » demande encore le père. - « Ah oui ! » Répond le fils - « Alors qu'as-tu appris ? » Le fils lui répond : « J'ai vu que nous n'avions qu'un chien alors qu'ils en ont quatre. Nous avons une piscine qui fait la moitié du jardin et ils ont une grande crique. Nous avons des lanternes dans notre jardin et eux ont des étoiles partout dans le ciel. Nous avons une immense galerie à l'avant et eux ont l'horizon. Nous avons un domaine mais 8 Lodger July/August 2015 Trop souvent nous oublions ce qui nous est acquis pour nous morfondre sur ce que nous n'avons pas. Ce qui est un objet sans valeur pour un peut très bien être un trésor pour un autre. Ce n'est qu'une question de perspective. C'est à se demander ce qui arriverait si nous avions de la gratitude pour tout ce que nous avons au lieu d'en vouloir toujours plus. Apprenez à apprécier ce que vous « avez ». Retrouvez vos yeux et votre cœur d'enfant et voyez combien il est important d'apprécier ce que vous avez plutôt que de vous soucier de ce que vous ne possédez pas. “L'opposition systématique se donne bien garde de demander quelque chose qu'elle pourrait obtenir, car alors il lui faudrait être contente ; et être contente pour l'opposition, c'est cesser d'être.” - De Alphonse Karr RIONS…RIONS…RIONS 2. 4. Trois gars habitent au 51ème étage. Un soir, ils reviennent très fatigués après un anniversaire arrosé. Comme il n'y a pas d'ascenseur, ils doivent emprunter l'escalier. Arrivés au 10ème étage, l'un dit aux deux autres : -"Vous savez quoi les gars ?" -"Ben, non... - J'suis crevé ! -Mais on doit continuer ! -OK, ok !" Arrivés au 30ème étage, le même dit aux deux autres: "Vous savez quoi, les gars ?" -"Non..... -Ben, j'suis crevé ! Arrivés au 50ème étage, il dit alors à ses deux potes : -"Vous savez quoi, les gars ? -Ben, ouais, t'es crevé ? -Non, j'ai oublié les clés en bas !" QUI SUIS-JE ? 1.

July/August 2015 Lodger 9 Page Pastorale Juillet : Mois du Très Précieux Sang « Il faut dire aux peuples à quel prix les âmes ont été rachetées. Il faut leur faire comprendre de quelle façon le Sang du Christ les purifie et comment ils sont sanctifiés avant tout par les sacrements. Afin de sortir les hommes de leur insensibilité actuelle, il faut leur rappeler que ce Sang est offert tous les matins sur les autels et qu'il devrait être adoré et loué en compensation des outrages et des blasphèmes. » Saint Gaspar del Bufalo (1786-1837), fondateur des Missionnaires du Précieux Sang (C.PP.S.) et co-fondateur des Sœurs Adoratrices du Sang du Christ (A.S.C.). Il a été canonisé en 1954. « Ô Sang très Précieux de vie éternelle, prix et rançon de tout l ' u n i v e r s , breuvage et bain de nos âmes, qui soutenez sans cesse la cause des hommes auprès du trône de la s u p r ê m e miséricorde ; je 10 Lodger July/August 2015 vous adore profondément, et je voudrais, autant qu'il est en mon pouvoir, vous dédommager des injures et des outrages que vous recevez sans cesse des hommes, et spécialement de ceux qui ont l'audace et la témérité de blasphémer contre vous. Et qui ne bénirait ce Sang d'une valeur infinie ? Qui ne se sentirait enflammé d'amour envers Jésus qui l'a répandu ! Que serais-je moi-même, si je n'avais été racheté par ce Sang divin ! Qui l'a tiré des veines de mon Seigneur jusqu'à la dernière goutte ? Ah ! Certainement, ce fut l'amour. Ô amour immense qui nous a donné un baume si salutaire ! Ô baume inestimable, qui a jailli de la source d'un amour immense, ah ! Faites que tous les cœurs, toutes les langues puissent vous louer, vous glorifier et vous remercier, maintenant et toujours, et jusque dans l'éternité. Ainsi soit-il. » Mgr. Albertini, fondateur en 1808 à Rome de la Confrérie du très Précieux Sang (approuvée par Pie VII en 1809, élevée au rang d'Archiconfrérie en 1815), Oraison finale du Petit chapelet en l'honneur du très Précieux Sang de Jésus Christ, Rome, 1914. “Je vous demande de prier afin que l'humanité contemporaine fasse l'expérience de la force du sang du Christ versé sur la Croix pour notre salut !” (Exhortation du pape Benoît XVI le 5 juillet 2006) Pastoral Page Grandma Moses – An Inspiration Anna Mary Robertson Moses (September 7, 1860 – December 13, 1961), better known by her nickname of "Grandma Moses," was a renowned American folk artist. In her late 70s and struggling with severe arthritis, was no longer able to do small detail work of embroidery. She found she could hold a small paintbrush much easier than a needle, and tried her hand at painting. She thought her farm and country scenes were good enough to show at the fair, but she only won prizes for her preserves and canned fruit. Then one day an art collector noticed several of her paintings on display in the window of a local drug store. He bought them all. When he showed them to his friends in the art circles of New York city, they were more curious about the painter. Soon, "Grandma Moses" gained an international reputation. Her widelycollected works of art were featured on calendars, greeting cards and in exhibitions in the leading galleries, including the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. Even more amazing, it's reported that twentyfive percent of her more than 1,500 paintings were done after she had turned 100! Moses' paintings are a m o n g t h e collections of many museums. The Sugaring Off was sold for US$1.2 million in 2006. Isn't it time you got started? Church Services for July & August Mass and/or Catholic Celebration.

It's Canada Day up Canada Way on the long cold winters done. And we're shouting hooray up Canada Way for the great days yet to come. Where maple trees grow maple leaves when the Northern sun is high.

It is one of the largest dams in the world. It provides water and power to people in Arizona, Nevada, Utah and California. The Colorado River is controlled by this dam to prevent flooding. The largest manmade lake in America is created on the other side of this dam. It is called Lake Mead. While I was walking on the Hoover Dam I thought about our Robert Saunders Generating Station, our St. Lawrence Seaway and our dyke that was holding back the river. Growing up in Cornwall in the 50`s and 60`s I had experienced the building of the Moses (U.S.A.) – Saunders (Canada) Hydro Project. This had been a thirty-five year old dream to use the water 18 Lodger July/August 2015 of the St. Lawrence River to provide hydro for people of Ontario and New York. My Dad, Lloyd Hill, had worked for Iroquois Construction during this project. He was one of the dispatchers / organizers for the army of dump trucks, cement mixers, earth movers required for this massive project. A dyke had been constructed to create a reservoir for the water of the St. Lawrence River. I remember joining hundreds of spectators on top of this dyke for the inundation. Were you there on the top of the dyke, also? Were you as excited as I was to experience this event? Mom and Dad packed a picnic. We would be spending hours on top of the dyke as the last coffer dam was blown up to allow water from the river to be diverted to the powerhouse at our generating station. We were also? Were you as excited as I was to experience this event? Mom and Dad packed a picnic. We would be spending hours on top of the dyke as the last coffer dam was blown up to allow water from the river to be diverted to the powerhouse at our generating station. By Stephanie Hill-Nicholls We were entertained by our beloved Snow Birds Air Show. In my little nine year old mind I was truly amazed by this event. However disappointed I was at not seeing the water come rushing to the dyke, it took 4 days to fill the reservoir, I was saved from seeing fleeing and drowning animals trying to unsuccessfully outrun the water. Wooden nickels were made to commemorate the inundation on July 1, 1958. Do you still have one? Remember the old expression, “Don’t take any wooden nickels?” This is the time in our local history when engineers believed it necessary to move communities so they would have the required land for the reservoir. These communities included Wales, Aultsville, Dickenson’s Landing, Farran’s Point, Maple Grove, Milles Roches, Moulinette, Santa Cruz, Sheek’s Island and Woodland. Five hundred and twenty-five homes, churches and schools were moved affecting six thousand and five hundred people. These people had to leave generational farms and life-long communities. The “Lost Villages” have retrieved and renovated some buildings. Villages of Ingleside, Long Sault, Morrisburg and Iroquois have been created or their neighbourhoods added to. The properties that were not moved were purchased at reduced prices because the Seaway had influenced a downward real estate spiral. If you are interested in knowing more about this time in our history I would encourage you to visit “The Lost Villages” on Highway 2 west and take a guided bus tour along the river. Here is my grandson Owen on a field trip with me while researching for this article. Stephanie is seen standing outside the Ontario Power Generating Station. The station has an excellent pictorial display and video guide. It is located near the Robert Saunders Generator and dyke and is accessible. Local author, Maggie Wheeler, has combined fact and fiction in her writing of four murder mystery novels. She gives information about the Seaway project from the affected peoples' point of view. These are emotional remembrances from a generation who survived a war only to later have their homes and farms taken from them. The factual information is taken from “St. Lawrence Power, final souvenir edition, September 5, 1958” provided by the O.P.G. Visitor ’s Centre.

However, the work of the committee was never completed. Later, in 1946, a select parliamentary committee was appointed with a similar mandate, called for submissions and received more than 2,600 designs. Still, the Parliament of Canada was never called upon to formally vote on a design. Early in 1964, Prime Minister Lester B. Pearson informed the House of Commons that the government wished to adopt a distinctive national flag. The 1967 centennial celebration of Confederation was, after all, approaching. As a result, a Senate and House of Commons Committee was formed and submissions were called for once again. 20 Lodger July/August 2015 In October 1964, after eliminating various proposals, the committee was left with three possible designs -- a Red Ensign with the fleur-de-lis and the Union Jack, a design incorporating three red maple leaves, and a red flag with a single, stylized red maple leaf on a white square. The names of Mr. John Matheson and Dr. George Stanley are well known in the story of the evolution of a new Canadian flag. Mr. Matheson, a Member of Parliament from Ontario, was perhaps one of the strongest supporters of a new flag and played a key advisory role. Dr. Stanley was Dean of Arts at the Royal Military College in Kingston, and brought to the attention of the committee the fact that the Commandant's flag at the College -- an emblem, i.e. a mailed fist, on a red and white ground -- was impressive. Dr. Stanley's design is based on a strong sense of Canadian history. The combination of red, white and red first appeared in the General Service Medal issued by Queen Victoria. Red and white were subsequently proclaimed Canada's national colours by King George V in 1921. Three years earlier, Major General (later the Honourable) Sir Eugene Fiset had recommended that Canada's emblem be the single red maple leaf on a white field the device worn by all Canadian Olympic athletes since 1904. The committee eventually decided to recommend the single-leaf design, which was approved by resolution of the House of Commons on December 15, 1964, followed by the Senate on December 17, 1964, and proclaimed by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, Queen of Canada, to take effect on February 15, 1965. The national flag of Canada, then, came into being, credit to those eminent Canadians: the Right Honourable Lester B. Pearson, who wanted a distinctive national flag as a vehicle to promote national unity; John Matheson, who established the conceptual framework for a suitable flag, then sought out and combined the appropriate components to create it; and Dr. George Stanley, who provided the seminal concept - the central concepts of red-white-red stripes with a central maple leaf - in this process. National Flag of Canada Day “The flag is the symbol of the nation's unity, for it, beyond any doubt, represents all the citizens of Canada without distinction of race, language, belief or opinion,” declared the Speaker of the Senate at the Inauguration of the new flag in 1965. On February 15, 1965 our national flag was raised for the first time on Parliament Hill. Canada was just two years away from centennial celebrations when the maple leaf flag was made official by Royal Proclamation. In 1996, February 15 was declared National Flag of Canada Day and has been observed every year since.

She stayed on the committee after Bob's passing in May of 2014. She stated in her letter of resignation, that she “truly appreciates what this group does for the residents of the Lodge and wishes it continues to be an outlet for the benefit of the residents.” The Council extends its gratitude to Jeanne for her contribution and her commitment to advocate on behalf of our residents.

Taste and Tell Nancy Hallberg Baked a Family Favourite – their Mom's Walnut Square Our Mom, Peggy Hill, used her Good Housekeeping Cook Book, copyright 1949, for the majority of her recipes. She was a great cook who enjoyed preparing our Sunday dinners with a Roast Beef, Chicken or Ham. Here I have prepared everyone's favourite dessert - Mom's Walnut Squares. This recipe was prepared for the Progressive Conservative Bake sales, Family dinners and school fundraisers. Hope you enjoy it as much as we have these many years.

The Ministry of Labour claimed he was not paying proper wages to his workers and sent an investigator to audit him. 'I need a list of your employees and how much you pay them,' demanded the investigator. 'Well,' replied old John, 'There's my farm hand who's been with me for 3 years. I pay him $600 a week and free room and board. The cook has been here for 18 months, and I pay her $500 a week plus free room and board. Then there is the half-wit who works about 18 hours every day and does about 90% of all the work around here. He makes about $10 per week, pays his own room and board and I buy him a bottle of bourbon every Saturday night.’ 'That's the guy I want to talk to, the half-wit,' says the investigator. 'That would be me,' replied old farmer John. THE GOLF POEM In my hand I hold a ball white and dimpled, rather small Oh , how bland it does appear this harmless looking little sphere. 26 Lodger July/August 2015 By its size I could not guess the awesome strength it does possess But since I fell beneath it's spell I've wandered through the fires of hell. My life has not been quite the same Since I chose to play this stupid game It rules my mind for hours on end A fortune it has made me spend It has made me swear and yell and cry I hate myself and want to die It promises a thing called par If I can hit straight and far To master such a tiny ball should not be very hard at all But my desires the ball refuses and does exactly like it chooses It hooks and slices, dribbles and dies and even disappears before my eyes Often it will take a whim to hit a tree or take a swim With miles of grass on which to land it finds a tiny patch of sand Then has me offering up my soul if only it would find the hole It's made me whimper like a pup and swear that I will give it up And take a drink to ease my sorrow but the ball knows I'll be back tomorrow! Submitted by Mrs. Sylvia Daigle By Tim McNally Marc Dicaire Goes Big In Sandbags It was Marc Dicaire's month to shine. As someone who regularly puts up great scores month after month, Marc's consistency finally paid off. Marc's go big or go home tactics are bold but admirable. While most players shy away from the elusive 300 point hole because of its difficulty, Marc doesn't go for anything but each and every time. High risk, high reward but a challenge that he seems to embrace. As usual, nobody hit the 300 mark more and he did and his high score of 1420 was a best among all players in the month of June. Keep it up Marc and here is a list of players who also made the 1000 point club for their fine play. Bruno Massie 1340, Theresa Rowe 1270, Bill Gove 1270, Suzie Martel 1260, J.P. Theoret 1230, Yvon Duplantie 1200, Hattie Armstrong 1200, Elva Cousins 1120, Jeanette Fournier 1150, Agathe Jolicoeur 1090, Lucinda Gordon 1050, Lynn Sawinski 1020, Jeana Reilly 1020, Fleurette Palletier 1010 and Brian Gignac 1000. Theresa Carriere Puts Her Stamp on the Dart Board There were a dozen bulls in June with the majority coming by way of the ladies. Rocky Lalonde did his best to represent Scoreboard the men and hit one bullseye for the cause. Theresa Carriere pieced together quite an impressive run hitting a couple bulls and providing high scores of 87, 87 and 86 along the way. Hattie Armstrong's score of 89 was tops among all players and she also put up a couple of bull's with some spirited play. The rest of the bull shooters looked like this: Odette Benoit 2, Jeana Reilly 1, Wilma Lortie 1, Jan Fournier 1, Joyce Ruest 1, and Anita Reed 1. These ladies certainly are rolling as we jump into the summer months. I would like to extend a big thank you to everyone who comes out to make Fridayafternoon darts such a great tradition. See you all back here in September. Nativity Bowling to Return in September A n o t h e r successful bowling season has wrapped up as Nativity Lanes will be closing as usual for the summer months. Great scores and good times were had and we hope that we can reconvene in September for more fun. The Lodge would like to thank Janet Wheeler and her staff at Nativity Bowling Lanes for making our group feel at home and accommodating all of our needs. Hopefully our group continues to grow and we will be back throwing strikes come the fall.
