Calais Bookshop November 12 Reading Group Calais Bookshop has selected “A Wild Sheep Chase” by Haruki Murakami, for its next reading group on Wednesday, Nov. 12. “A marvelous hybrid of mythology and mystery, ‘A Wild Sheep Chase’ is the extraordinary literary thriller that launched Haruki Murakami’s international repu- tation. It begins simply enough: A twenty-something advertising executive receives a postcard from a friend, and casually appropriates the image for an insurance company’s advertisement. What he doesn’t realize is that included in the pastoral scene is a mutant sheep with a star on its back, and in using this photo he has unwit- tingly captured the attention of a man in black who offers a menacing ultimatum: find the sheep or face dire consequences. Thus begins a surreal and elaborate quest that takes our hero from the urban haunts of Tokyo to the remote and snowy mountains of northern Japan, where he confronts not only the mythological sheep, but the confines of tradition and the demons deep within himself. Quirky and utterly captivating, ‘A Wild Sheep Chase is Murakami at his astounding best,” says the book’s cover. This is the 104th book group in an ongoing reading program available at Calais Bookshop, 405 Main St. Group begins at 5:30 p.m. (U.S. time). For book group schedules and other program information, call 454-1110 or like us on Facebook.

I’m a long-term resident of Calais, who is invested in my neighborhood and my community. I’ve seen better days here and I want to do what’s necessary to put Calais back on track. It won’t be easy and I’ll need your help, but together we can establish the priorities and accomplish our goals. We need more businesses in Calais and we need more jobs. I want to establish incentives for small business to grow which creates the new jobs we need. Gary Young is a Shriner, My other priorities are improving our water and sewer, cutting taxes, a member of the ensuring we have an excellent school system and taking care of our American Legion and elderly. the Calais Lions Club. We need more referendums so the people’s voice can be heard, opposed to decisions being made by a select few, for all.

I have a down-to-earth practical approach to solving problems and I know if you always do what you’ve always done, you’ll always get what you’ve always got. But if you vote for me, you vote for REAL CHANGE. Why am I running for City Council? I am running because I care. PAGE 7 Stan Sluzenski Named Teacher of the Year

The hall was packed. There was an abundance of food, including twenty-four pies, all generously donated by community residents. Contributing to the occasion were a very entertaining Chinese auction, a 50-50, door prizes for kids, and giveaways of play firemen’s helmets to every child. Fire Dept. related decorations covered the walls, and beautiful flower bouquets were on every table. The event was sponsored jointly by the Cathance Grange 510, Friends of the Cooper Community Center, and the Cathance Lake Association. The proceeds from the supper will be used to help build an addition to the fire house to house another fire truck and space for training exercises. Cooper’s all-volunteer fire department does more than fight fires to save lives and property, but is involved in emergency preparedness, search and rescue, hazardous materials handling, extrication: “jaws of life”, response and support during natural 538-3040 • 1-866-564-3457 disasters, and mutual aid with other local fire departments. Their recently acquired equipment includes a new fire truck, oxygen air packs, and nonflammable suits which enable the firemen to enter the intense heat and smoke of a fully involved burning building. Land around the fire house is being cleared and prepared for the new addition. Cooper’s fire department came through with flying colors during last winter’s ice storm when firemen checked on residents every day, took them water, food and heaters, cleared fallen trees blocking driveways, shoveled snow from pathways, and kept the Cooper Community Center open with heat and amenities for residents who wished to shelter there. Those who enjoyed the supper and the company of their friends and neighbors learned more about their fire department, and know that their generosity will help update it with the latest technology.

Altar Servers Appreciation Banquet The Knights of Columbus held a big homemade spaghetti and meatball dinner banquet, complete with garlic bread and a huge sheet cake for dessert at their hall in Calais on Sunday night Oc- tober 19. The meal is held annually to show appreciation to the Altar Servers and their families that serve in the Catholic churches of St. James in Baileyville and The Immaculate Conception in Calais. Nearly 65 people enjoyed the meal and those in attendance were Knights members, Clergy and Altar Servers families. At the completion of the meal, a short ceremony was held, where on-by-on the Altar Servers were called to the front of the hall and handed a special Altar Servers Award Certificate. As each one came, a round of applause followed them to the front of the hall. Afterwards, Father Rob Lupo personally thanked the servers and family members, who make sure, that at each and every Sunday mass, there are Altar Servers there to make the mass special.
