news, but we need your help
to continue our work to find a
cure.

Red Cross Calls for Donors
As Unique as Those They Help
ELMIRA - In honor of
Black History Month this
February, and in the spirit of
Dr. Charles Drew, an AfricanAmerican surgeon who was
the first medical director of
the American Red Cross and
a modern blood-banking pioneer, eligible donors as diverse
as the patients who need their
blood donations are encouraged to give blood to ensure a
sufficient blood supply.
Blood from a donor with
a similar ethnic background
as that of the patient is less
likely to cause complications,
particularly for those patients
HOUSES CONTINUE TO COME DOWN under the FEMA buyout program in the Village of Sidney. Mayor Andy
Matviak said that currently there are 11 houses scheduled to come down and the program will continue for another
year and one-half with additional houses signed on to the flood buyout. Pictured here is the take down of the house at
111 River St.

whose chronic conditions require repeated transfusions.
Sickle cell disease is one such
chronic condition affecting as
many as 100,000 people in the
United States.
Prior
to
transfusion,
blood type and Rh factor are
matched between donated
blood and the patient in need.
In some cases, additional red
cell markers in donated blood
must be matched, as well.
These markers are best
found in
blood
from donors of
a similar
ethnicity.
With
seasonal flu and inclement winter weather preventing many
regular donors from giving,
the Red Cross urges healthy,
eligible donors to make an appointment to donate blood in
the coming days and weeks.
All blood types are currently
needed to help maintain a
diverse and sufficient blood
supply, especially types O
negative, A negative and B
negative.
To learn more about donating blood and to schedule an
appointment, download the
Red Cross Blood Donor App,
visit redcrossblood.org or call
1-800-RED CROSS (1-800733-2767).

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Gov. Andrew Cuomo
Is Bad for Education
“This is the area, my
friends, where I think we need
to do the most reform, and,
frankly, where reform is going
to be difficult given the situation in the way education is
funded in this state.” Andrew
Cuomo during his state of the
state address last week.
First and foremost, Andrew
Cuomo is no friend of education. Instead, he has turned
New York into ‘The Hunger
Games’, pitting public schools
against charter schools (which
divert public funds from public schools). He has created a
system of blackmail, with a
70% reduction in his allocation for schools if his suggestions are not accepted. This
is bullying, and it creates an
environment that is bad for
all students. Since the Gap
Elimination Adjustment, poor,
upstate school districts have
been shortchanged millions of
dollars for a number of years.
Restore that first and then we
can talk.
The Governor has suggested that 50% of a teacher’s
evaluation is to be based on
state tests (that he already
admitted shouldn’t be used
against students because of
less than ideal implementation
and accuracy). This concept is
at fault for many reasons…a
teacher may not discuss any
of the questions on the test
after the test is given. This
doesn’t allow for changes to
be made ‘while the coals are
hot.’ Too many factors that
are beyond a teacher’s control
could jeopardize that teacher’s
employment. Current evaluation methods already include
state test results and student
achievement in the formula.
Keep in mind the tests the
governor mentions are grades
3-8 for ELA and math. What
about the other 60% of the
staff?
Governor Cuomo, if you
were serious about changing schools, please go into
schools. See what needs to be
done by asking the people who
know each student by name.
Gain knowledge by what you
see and hear. Ask staff what
classes are no longer being
offered due to budgetary restraints. (See Gap Elimination
Adjustment). Don’t turn this
into blackmail. Give us what
we need. Period.

Stop the Pipeline to Hold
Comment Writing Events
ONEONTA - Members of
Stop the Pipeline (STP) will
hold two comment writing
events on Saturday, Feb. 7
and Saturday, Feb. 21, from 2
to 6 p.m. at The Green Earth,
4 Market St., Oneonta. These
are part of the campaign to
convince the DEC to deny
water and air quality permits
for the Constitution Pipeline.
Constitution received conditional approval from the federal government but can’t be
built without permits from NY
State.
Pipeline construction endangers long-term water and
air quality, creates a threat to
headwaters and related stream
systems, and compromises
spawning and viability of important fish species. With Constitution, wholesale tree stripping, especially on hillsides,
will lead to increased flooding
in an area recently devastated
by more frequently occurring
100-year inundations. Landowners, many facing eminent
domain proceedings, will lose
property value and access, and
the quality of life they have
established through years of
hard work. The Constitution
with its associated compressor
stations, and a second pipeline
project proposed by Kinder
Morgan, are a threat to our
health, environment, land values, and way of life.
Join your neighbors in telling the DEC to do what is environmentally and ethically
correct – deny Constitution
Pipeline the 401 water quality
certificate and air quality permit. With the help of STP volunteers, create personalized
letters from sample comment
letters and Talking Points.
Bring a laptop if you have
one, or just bring your pen.

IN THE GOOD OLD DAYS
SIDNEY
25 YEARS AGO
January 31, 1990
An organized effort to promote cooperation between
Afton, Bainbridge, Sidney
and Unadilla in meeting common goals and dealing with
similar problems is off the
ground in the formation of the
Tri-County Valley Coalition.
The Tri-County Valley Coalition grew out of a meeting
between representatives of the
Bainbridge and Sidney Chambers of Commerce who felt
they had collective interests,
and was extended to include
all facets of community life.
Representatives of town and
village governments, businesses, industries and organizations were invited to a meeting and according to Mark
Watkins, who was designated
chairman, “everyone was very
enthusiastic and there was almost unanimous approval to
form a coalition.” Members
of the executive committee include Glenn Gould, Jim Westcott, Wiley Vincent, Dixie Davis, Walt Johnson, John Hyzer,
Jim Meno, Cliff Crouch, Ann
Briggs and Doris Bame.
Revisions to the land subdivision regulations for the
Town of Sidney basically
eliminate the exempt subdivision from the regulations, clarify some points in the regulations and bring the regulations
in line with state laws, according to Ray Haag, chairman of
the Town of Sidney Planning
Board and Jesse A. Johnson, a
member of the board.

75 YEARS AGO
January 23, 1940
The ice skating carnival
sponsored by the Sidney Exchange Club under the direction of Conrad Merrill, proved
very successful, giving pleasure to the young people as
well as grown ups who especially enjoyed the races. It was
evidenced that the vicinity of
Sidney has a coming group of
skaters who, no doubt, will attract some attention on the ice
in a few year. Mr. Merrill suggests that you watch the girls
Caroline Stevens, Hennelore
Bremser, Helen Mossman and
Heidi Engel. The public address system, which is the best
in this section and could easily be heard at a distance, was
supplied by the Cooke Radio
Sound Service of Sidney.
Feb. 1, 1940 - Another industry, which has been under
consideration for the last nine
months or more, came to a final conclusion this week when
plans were completed and
a deal of purchase of lands
closed, to locate the D&H tie
plant at the western edge of
this village on lands along the
line of the railroad.
Several weeks ago, options
were secured on lands owned
by the Scintilla Magneto
Co., Harvey Wild and Russell Quackenbush, for a tract
of lands covering about 200
acres of land.
The members of the Dairy
Farmers Union in this vicinity
have called a public meeting
at Municipal Hall on Tuesday, Feb. 6 at 8 o’clock, for
the purpose of discussing the
construction of a milk plant in
Sidney to serve the dairymen
in this vicinity. The site for
the plant suggested is located
where the former milk station
carried on for many years, between lower River St. and the
Susquehanna River.

New column by former
Bainbridge educator Floyd
Prouty begins this week.
Floyd, now retired, was a

January 22, 1920
It was 30 degrees below
zero on Tuesday morning,
Jan. 20.
A new record for snow
drifts has been established. A
man coming into town on the
Guilford Road got stuck in the
drift. He took his team off and
went to secure help to shovel
his loaded bobs out. When he
returned in half an hour, the
bobs were completely buried
so that nothing showed but the
rail on the top of the drivers
seat which had been placed on
top of the load.
UNADILLA
25 YEARS AGO
January 31, 1990
At a special meeting held
on Friday, Jan. 21, the Unadilla Town Board rejected a
proposed subdivision law proposed by the planning board.
According to town councilman George Banta, “The
whole board felt that it was
too much, more in depth than
what we want at this time.”
Banta went on to explain that
the town board intends to
work with the planning board
to modify, with the purpose of
simplifying, the original proposal. The opposition of the
people was largely from those
owning property outside the
village limits, who may wish
to sell land down the road. A
major concern was the amount
of money they’d have to spend
before they could even sell the
land.

An organization meeting
of the Unadilla Chamber of
Commerce will be held this
evening at 8 o’clock in the
Community House. A survey
of the number of professional businessmen and women
of this community, together
with those citizens who have
already expressed interest,
would indicate an expected
membership of about 75 persons. Twenty-two of 26 persons attending the first meeting pledged membership and
since that time a number of
additional pledges have been
received.

A fascinating video surfaced on Facebook recently,
and if you already knew, forgive me. You know how eclectically information travels on
the Internet. Articles on this
man, Lars Andersen, a master
archer from Sweden, say that
he only took up the sport 10
years ago. By studying ancient
manuscripts and carvings of
archers, he has rediscovered
archery as practiced from
5000 B.C. until the advent of
guns. It is quite unlike skills
Lura Wilson taught most of us
Greene alumni in the ’50s, ’60s
and ’70s. Fast moving archers
on the hunt or at war did not
use a back quiver, as that often
spills your arrows. Instead, a
hip or saddle quiver was used,
but arrows for immediate use
were carried in either the bow
hand or the shooting hand and
fed rapidly to the string. Also
the bow and wrist were used
to give arrows extra impetus,
flinging the top of the bow forward in the direction the arrow
is shot.
Using this technique, and
with enormous amounts of
practice, Lars can shoot from
any position with pinpoint
accuracy, ducking, spinning
or even upside down. He can
shoot three arrows simultaneously and hit a target dead
on with each one. He even
does Robin Hood one better,
although I think Legolas has
a similar trick. He not only
splits an opponent’s arrow,
but he does it as the arrow is
shot at him! Catch his act on
YouTube.
This highlights things that
we tend to forget: first, much
of what we think we know
about the past is almost certainly wrong; second, the reasons we give are also wrong.
Example: the idea that archers
were only used in war to shoot
clouds of arrows in an intensive bombardment. Yes, they
were obviously used that way,
witness the testimony of the
300 at Thermopylae that the
arrows of Xerxes’ archers blotted out the sun, but Lars shows
they were able to engage in
the thick of battle. Thirdly,
we generally underestimate
the ancients’ abilities, assuming that they weren’t quite as
bright as we.
Speaking of bright, who was
the genius who dreamed up
movie popcorn “butter?” After
taking the youth group to “The
Hobbit” Friday, I woke with a
horrible chemical taste in my
mouth and throat, faintly redolent of that butter. It took an
hour to get rid of using baking
soda in water and little swigs
of milk to cool the burning.
“Diacetyl” is one possible ingredient, a substance linked
to lung problems. Soybean or
coconut oil is used, but also
other “secret” blends. Some
movie theatres do not pop their
corn, but buy bags pre-popped
treated with preservatives. No
more movie popcorn for this
lass, thanks.
Coconut oil, by the way, is
back. Once a popular oil for
many uses, it fell out of favor
when we were warned it was
bad for our hearts. Its use is
now touted for Alzheimer’s relief, weight loss, osteoporosis
prevention, immune function,
and among other benefits, a
healthier heart!
As early as 4000 B.C.,
ancient people used
crude pens consisting of
hollow straws or reeds that
supported a short column of
liquid.

Afton, NY 13730
HISTORICAL MINUTES NO. 1,122
by Charles J. Decker, Afton Town and Village Historian
JANUARY 2015
Afton has a long history of physicians who have served
our town, just in my lifetime. Dr. Philetus A. Hayes carne to
Afton from Castle Creek and lived on the corner of Spring
and Academy Streets. Before coming to Afton he was called
to treat the dying Edward W. Nickerson, a Civil War soldier.
Dr. Hayes delivered my father Bernett. Bernett and his twin
sister Bernice, born July 24, 1902. At my age of 88, I have
an imagined Civil War connection. Dr. Hayes also delivered
Bernett’s brother and sister, Ellery and Ruth and I believe that
they were all born in the house where I live.
I was born in this house on February 19, 1926, during a
chimney fire, which was put out by neighboring farmers and
their hired men. I am sure that the occasion was well remembered by the fire dousers as well as by my parents, especially
Dr. William Crull who came
my mother. Dr. W. Lee Dodge delivered me. He had practiced
to Afton in 1934. Picture
in Coventry for four years before moving to Afton in 1902.
from the Afton Historical
My sister Sylvia and my brother Ray were both born in
Society.
the maternity home of Mrs. Chandler, across from St. Ann’s
Church. I remember my grandfather Frank Decker picking me
up to stay with him and my grandmother during my mother’s confinement.
Later, Ruth Sullivan Legg had a maternity home on South Main Street, near Henry’s Drive In. Her
husband was the local veterinarian.
Martin had a twin sister, Martha, who didn’t survive. Dr. William Crull had just come to Afton in 1934
and the Decker twins were his first delivery here. His first patient was the parrot of the Fisher family,
where Pages now live. Dr. Crull lived in the old Dr. Hayes house and had a hospital across the street,
now gone.
Dr. Charles Graf practiced here. His office was on Main Street, but he later moved up to the present
Afton Family Health Center, which had just been built. My experiences with him were mainly routine,
such as physicals.
Dr. Stephen Dygert has been our present doctor for several years, also in the family Health Center,
which has recently been enlarged. His daughter is also in practice with him. He has taken good care
of me, catching problems that could be solved with early attention.

is. Her beauty is more than
skin deep, however. Roxy is a
4 – 5 year old spayed female
Lab mix. She has the best personality and the sweetest way
about her. It’s very common to
hear Roxy crying in her kennel through out the day, letting
us know that she’s lonely, and
longing for attention. We do the
best we can, but Roxy will not
be happy until she’s home, and
can spend all day free, and best
of all to spend tons of time with
her new people. If you stop in
to meet Roxy, talk to the staff,
and they will tell you words just

can’t describe how terrific she
is.
Other perks about Roxy, she
is housebroken (“she is insanely
housebroken”, is one staff member’s view on that), because she
has not even had one accident
here at the shelter. They are inside for a long period of time
over night, and Roxy can make
it until morning, every night.
Roxy is also good on a leash
and she is a treat to take for a
long walk. Visit with Roxy at

Paper Cutting Art Exhibition
Is On Display at Sidney Library
SIDNEY - Sidney Memorial Public Library invites the
public to view the amazing
display of paper cutting and
scratchboard art by Otego’s
Shannon Delany, on display

attending juried art shows.
The art tradition of paper cutting design, Scheren-
schnitte (cutting with scissors)
and Messenschnitte (x-acto
knife cutting), was founded in
Switzerland and Germany in
the 16th century and brought
to America by immigrants
who settled primarily in
Pennsylvania.
The Sidney Library is honored to exhibit a variety of
arts and crafts for the public’s
enjoyment. You can view this
enchanting display during library hours.

School News
Hope all students are ready
for the regent and mid-term
exams going on this week.
Let’s hope the storms don’t
interrupt the exams, good luck
to all students. Sounds like
we won’t get the bulk of the
storm.

Staff Development Day.
Starting in February, there
is a board of education meeting on Tuesday, Feb. 3 in the
high school library at 7 p.m.
Wednesday, Feb. 4 there is
a PTO meeting in the elementary LMC room at 6 p.m.
Good luck students on your
second report cards that will
be mailed on Feb. 6.
On the Farm
Some family members are
recovering from the flu and
are getting back to work. It’s
been quite quiet on the farm
this week; I guess that’s good
since so many were sick. Two
cows couldn’t get up and walk
to be milked so they had to be
butchered and used for meat
in the freezers, this happens
occasionally here on the farm
and I’m sure on other farms
also. The claves do not like
the cold weather and we are
trying to keep them as well
as we can, so far so good.
Keep those fires burning folks
and keep warm and stay safe
through this storm. There
seems to be quite a lot of illness around town, get well everyone and stay healthy.

Thelma Andresen
AFTON - Thelma Andresen
of Afton and Zephyrhills, Fla.
passed away on Jan. 20, 2015,
94 years after her birth on Jan.
20, 1921 to Andrew and Sophia
(Larsen) Reinertsen.
Thelma’s eight brothers and
sisters, Sigurd, Leif, Arthur,
Walter, Robert, Gladys, Ethel,
and Edna all predeceased her
as did her son, Andrew LaFever; daughter, Shirley Youngs;
granddaughter, Lori Judd; and
husbands, Edwin LaFever and
Edgar Andresen.
She is survived by her sons,
Donald (Charlene) LaFever
and James (Marlene) LaFever; daughter, Christine (Gary)
Wilson; and 14 grandchildren.
Thelma’s excellent memory allowed her to recall each of her
23 great grandchildren and 13
great-great-grandchildren (and
their birthdates) who also survive along with several nieces
and nephews.
Thelma and her first husband,
Ed LaFever worked at Scintilla/
Bendix while raising their five
children and enjoyed camping
trips to the Adirondacks, fishing
trips to Canada, and she and Ed
traveled to Hawaii. He passed
away in 1975. During her second marriage to Edgar they
enjoyed their winter home in
Florida and summers in Afton.
They traveled to Norway where
each of them met some of their
Norwegian relatives.
Her family members were
proud to receive one of the dozens of afghans she knitted and
gifted to celebrate marriages
and births, the last one given to
Miles her youngest great-great
grandchild who was born last
year.
Thelma was healthy, active
and lived independently all her
life. She made many friends
over the years through her association with bowling teams,
Rebekah Lodge, Senior Citizen
groups, and card and game playing friends.
A gathering of her friends
and family in Florida took
place on Jan. 24 in the Spanish
Trails Senior Village Clubhouse
where Thelma loved to join in
card playing, Bingo, and other
games and social activities. A
service to enable Thelma’s New
York family and friends to remember and celebrate her life
will be planned and announced
at a future date.
A graveside service and burial will be held in the spring.

PUZZLE CORNER
Skyline Boys to Appear Feb. 8
At Coventry Methodist Church
CONVENTRY – On Sunday, Feb. 8 at 9 a.m. the
Southern gospel group Skyline Boys will be in concert
during worship service at
Coventry United Methodist
Church. This event is open to
the public and will only cost a
free-will offering.
The Skyline Boys were
formed in 1995 at the foothills
of the Blue Ridge Mountains,
at the beginning of the famous
Skyline Drive. Dennis Powers, organized a group that
would present the message of
God’s love through Southern
Gospel Music.
Over the years, the Skyline
Boys have appeared all over
the country and have made a
name on television and radio.
Dennis Powers of Purcellville, Va., the owner and manager of the group, soundman
and bus driver is the bass singer for the group. As the son of
a pastor he was introduced to
Gospel Music at a young age
by a Blackwood Brothers album his dad brought home in
the mid ’50s. Inspired by the
Couriers, the great Cathedrals
and other groups of the ’60s he
started his first group in October 1964 in his dad’s church in
Hagerstown, Md. He has sung
with many groups over the
last 43 years.
Chris Little of Griffithsville,
W.V., the baritone vocalist/piano player for the group is no
stranger to this music. Chris
is and man with many talents and abilities and they really show in concerts. Chris’s
quality vocals and exceptional
piano playing make him a
crowd pleaser everywhere the
group performs. Chris spent
six years in the U.S. Army and
has a wonderful testimony.
Chris sang with the Forgiven
Trio for many years.
Lead singer Chris Williams,
a native of Waynesboro, Va.
is no stranger to gospel music. Having sung with several
groups and having a group of
his own Chris’s exceptional
smooth vocals is a crowd
pleaser everywhere the group
goes. Chris is a long time
friend of Jimmy Fortune, former tenor for the Statler Brothers who hail from the same
area. Music is and has been a
major part of Chris’s life.
Rounding out the group
with an extraordinary high
range and smooth sound is
tenor vocalist Jerry Skaggs.
Jerry and his family make their
home in Ansted, W.V. Jerry is
no stranger to Gospel Music
having worked part-time with
Phil Cross and Poet Voices,
The Faith Harmony Boys and
most recent his family group,
the Faithmen.
The hardest part of any
group is finding four guys
who fit together and can work
as a team. As anyone who has
seen them in concert will tell
you, these men all have completely different personalities
but come together like the
great quartets of old. Many
are surprised to see that those
coming out to their concerts
are of every age. Like the
Statesmen Quartet in the ’50s,
the Skyline Boys are forming
their own identity with their
energetic stage presence and
unique sound. If you spend
any time with these men off
stage or on the bus you will
find that laughter is as much
a part of them as their music.
Their concerts are filled with
laughter as the guys prepare
the crowd for the message
of Christ’s love. The Skyline
Boys are blessed to have four
guys who fit together in their
own way and are all focused
on the calling God has placed
on their lives.

Intro to Winter Tracking Is Feb. 7 at Rogers Center
SHERBURNE - Explorers
of all ages are invited to join
the Friends of Rogers Adventure Team on a wild hunt to
find the elusive four-hoofed
multi-pronged ungulate. This
pesky mysterious creature can
be found locally, if you know
how and where to look. The expedition begins at 10:30 a.m. on
Saturday, Feb. 7 at the Rogers
Environmental Education Center in Sherburne.
“Don’t be fooled by tracks
left behind by other animals
who call these woods their
home,” cautioned Sarah Freedman, Friends of Rogers environmental educator. “Learn a
few simple ways to tell these
creatures apart.”
The expedition will take
place snow or shine, so explorers should wear appropriate
clothing and footwear. The hunt
will last approximately an hour
and trekkers will cover the distance of one mile.
“This unique twist on our

ages,” said Simon Solomon,

check be completed on all
firearms sales or transfers, and

this site for such. All Federal
and NYS firearm laws will be
observed.
There will be an admission
charge.
