The Mission/Evangelism Committee of Forest Larger Parish Presbyterian Church began the celebration of Thanksgiving and Christmas on Tuesday, November 15. They delivered Christmas Child Shoeboxes to the drop-off site at Praise Chapel in Crandon, hams to the New Hope Homeless Shelter, hams to Mikes in Townsend (with coupons for the hams going to the Christian Food Pantry at St. Johns), and hams to New-Cap in Crandon. Also being delivered to New-Cap were two bags of hand-knit caps, gloves and scarves for children that were made by female inmates who knit for others while they are incarcerated. The Homeless Shelter also received a bag of hand-knit scarves and wraps from the same women that could be used as welcoming gifts for new residents.
The McCauslin's Lions and Lioness Organizations continue to realize the importance and value of getting books into children's hands. They understand that the only book some students receive is the one donated by them. Every child treasures receiving a book. You may think in this time of high tech toys a book would hold no value, but come for a visit the day the books are delivered and you will realize how important a book is to every one of our students. For years, along with the Wabeno Lion's Club, these organizations have strived to donate money to the Wabeno Elementary school toward the purchase of a book for each and every student. This year the organization donated $1,136.50 for this cause. We would like to extend our greatest thanks for encouraging our students to read. It is truly a gift.

Start a regular exercise program. Walking, skipping rope, jogging, playing racquet sports, swimming and aerobics are all helpful in reducing the risk of osteoporosis. Exercising for 20 minutes, three times a week, is helpful.
Although weight lifting exercises are generally recommended, the National Osteoporosis Foundation says those suffering from osteoporosis should consult their health care practitioner before beginning a weight lifting program because excessive strain on the bones could result.
Those with severe osteoporosis and who have suffered from fractures may find Tai Chi, a form of martial arts, to be a beneficial strength training exercise system.
If you are looking for a calcium supplement, try one that's highly absorbable, such as microcrystalline hydroxyapatite concentrate (MCHC), or one of the malates, fumarates, succinates, glutarates, or citrates. But don't overdo it. Taking more than the recommended amount of calcium may cause kidney stones. Consider taking additional nutritional supplements, such as vitamin D, C, magnesium, zinc and silica after consulting with your doctor.

Sheri Calewarts and Jeff Hersh of the Wabeno Fire Dept. came Wabeno Head Start to show all the kids how to be safe during a fire. The children were able to see what they looked like with their uniforms and equipment on just in case they ever had a fire. Celewarts and Hersh are real people in their uniforms and the kids should not be scared even though they could not see their face with the masks on. The kids really enjoyed learning everything they were told and loved look in in the fire truck! Photos by Yana Holdener

Announces Web Hosting Contract Awarded to Inflection Washington, DC. . . The National Archives today announced its selection of Inflection, parent company to family history website Archives.com, to design and host a free website for the April 2, 2012, at 9 AM (EST) launch of the 1940 U.S. Census. This is the first time that the National Archives has released a U.S. Census online. On April 2, 2012, users will be able to search, browse, and download the 1940 Census schedules from their own computers or from the public computers at National Archives locations nationwide through the new 1940 Census website, free of charge. A NOTE OF CAUTION TO RESEARCHERS: A name index does not exist for the 1940 Census. However, the National Archives has indexed the schedules by state, county, city, township or minor civil division, and enumeration district. Researchers can prepare for the launch by searching the 1940 Census maps and enumeration district descriptions in the National Archives Online Public Access catalog at http://www.archives.gov/research/search/, then browse the 1940 Census population schedules for that enumeration district. For the release of the 1940 Census online, the National Archives has digitized the entire census, creating more than 3.8 million digital images of census schedules, maps, and enumeration district descriptions. For more information about the 1940 Census visit the website: http://www.archives.gov/research/census/1940/ or email: 1940Census@nara.gov; subscribe to NARAtions Blog posts: http://blogs.archives.gov/online-public-access/?cat=163; follow the 1940 Census on Twitter using hashtag #1940Census; or like the National Archives on Facebook (USNationalArchives). While the original intent of the Census was to determine how many representatives each state was entitled to send to the U.S. Congress, it is also a key research tool for sociologists, demographers, historians, political scientists and genealogists. Questions on the 1940 Census include standard ones such as: name, age, gender, race, education, and place of birth. It also asks new questions, reflecting concerns of the Great Depression. The instructions ask the enumerator to enter an X after the name of the person furnishing the information about the family; to note whether the person worked for the CCC, WPA, or NYA the week of March 24-30, 1940; and to list where they lived on April 1, 1935. The 1940 Census also has a supplemental schedule for preselected lines on each page. This schedule asks the place of birth of the person's father and mother, and the person's usual occupation, not just what they were doing the week of March 2430, 1940. All women included in the supplemental form were asked if they had ever been married, how many times, and at what age did the first marriage take place.

Wintry weather means work on the Holt & Balcom Logging Camp Museum in Lakewood will be halted this week to resume in spring as weather permits. The Restoration Committee, a subgroup of the Oconto County Historical Society, had hoped to finish the project this fall, but work has been proceeding too slowly. One bright spot is that this gives the Restoration Committee more time to raise desperately needed funds to finish the project. Unfortunately, the estimated cost of completing the renovation will be twice what we previously anticipated, says Kathleen Marsh, Fundraising Chair. I have done everything possible to raise the money, and I thought we had enough, but the bottom line is we are $20,000 short of what is needed. To clear up a misconception in the community, not a single dollar of taxpayer money has been used to restore the Museum. All of our funds have come from private sources: individuals, families, community organizations, businesses, and Museum fees/events. Jerry Dewane (Astro Log Homes) and his partner Bob Kleinhaus are doing an excellent job, with meticulous attention to detail. But the building is badly deteriorated; many of the logs the men work on crumble in their hands. Thus it is going to cost a lot more than what we thought, and we are counting on people to once again respond generously. If you would like to help save the oldest logging camp still standing on its original site, please send a donation to Holt and Balcom Logging Camp Museum; 16965 Nicolet Road; Townsend, WI 54175. Donations of any size will be greatly appreciated. Donors who make a hundred dollar contribution are eligible for a $1000 appreciation award to be given at the Second Annual Lumberjack Links Golf Outing on June 10, 2012 at the McCauslin Country Club and Golf Course in Lakewood. Call 715-276-6515 for more details. When the Museum is finished next year, the site will be an historical treasure that our entire community can point to with pride, says Marsh. I promise we are doing our best to make sure the logging camp will be there for at least another hundred years, but we need your help to get this done.

Papa Smurf and Smurfette may be small (three apples tall, to be exact), but they and the rest of the Smurfs will take over the big screen with this animated-live action hybrid. Length: 103 minutes, Rating: PG (MPAA)
THE HELP: A 1960s-era Mississippi debutante sends her community into an uproar by conducting a series of probing interviews with the black servants behind some of her community's most prominent families. Skeeter (Emma Stone) has just graduated from college, and she's eager to launch her career as a writer. In a moment of inspiration, Skeeter decides to focus her attention on the black female servants who work in her community. Her first subject is Aibileen (Viola Davis), the devoted housekeeper who has been employed by Skeeter's best friend's family for years. By speaking with Aibileen, Skeeter becomes an object of scorn to the wealthy locals, who view her actions as directly challenging to the established social order. Before long, even more servants are coming forward to tell their stories, and Skeeter discovers that friendship can blossom under the most unlikely of circumstances. Bryce Dallas Howard co-stars in a touching tale of race relations based on author Kathryn Stockett's bestselling novel of the same name.
