An Act of Kindness

An Act of Kindness would go a long way,
Not only done on special occasions
Such as Valentine’s Day.
Saying a kind word or doing a kind deed,
Is always something that’s in need !
So go ahead and give a smile,
I say it’s always worthwhile.

1954 Boarding at The Colonial Inn, Coniston, ON

When Laurianne asked me to present some information on the Colonial Inn in Coniston I really wondered what I could remember. That is 62 years ago since I stayed there when I was teaching in Coniston at the Public School. I lived there for two years. There were a number of teachers living there at the time. There were two of us from the Public Board and six or seven from the Separate Board. We all had a fairly big room with large closets – almost walk in.

There were High School teachers there also. Other Inco people and retired people also lived there.there were hardwood floors throughout the building. Mr. And Mrs. Caverson were the caretakers cooks and general caretakers of the building. Mrs. Caver son was a great cook and provided the meals for the day which were varied and excellent.

We had an appointed table and chair where we were to sit. We ladies shared a bathroom which consisted of two toilets, three sinks and two tubs , no showers – they were downstairs someplace. There was a Separate classroom in the building – I believe it was a grade one class.

My room was quite comfortable, however, sometimes in the winter it would be rather chilly and being at the end of the hall I guess the heat ran out before it got to me especially when it was windy. I did have a small heater which I could use.

We had Christmas get togethers – not parties in some of our rooms where we shared Christmases past and other topics and maybe what we were doing f or our Christmas Concerts. That was always exciting. Our children sure miss out on that nowadays.

The building was built in 1918 by Inco and used as a boarding house. Many town offices were also housed there It was converted to Colonial Inn in 1976. Ron and Stella Legault purchased the landmark building and business in 1979. Today it operates as an apartment building, busy restaurant and bar and catering service. Many public and private celebrations are held there in the spacious Banquet Room. You can go on line and see some pictures of the building and the Banquet Rooms.

CHRISTMAS MEMORIES

by Erna da Burger Fex

My first Christmas memory is of my Dad throwing the burning Christmas tree out into our small courtyard. The tree had real small candles on it as did everyone’s trees in Holland at the time. No wonder that made an impression on my young mind! Dad’s hands were singed but he saved us from having a house fire! Christmas Day itself is celebrated as a religious feast in the Netherlands.

I remember my first Christmas in Canada in 1951. There was so much snow! My parents had very little money so our gift was a wooden sled , one present for the four of us. No one complained. I know that Mom cooked a delicious meal for us but I doubt that it was turkey because she didn’t know that was traditional in Canada. We had only been in this country for two months.

The next Christmas that I remember very well was in 1952 when the Lions Club appeared at our door one dark December night surprising us with lovely toys and food. We were so excited! Father Regan had informed them that we were new immigrants with little money. He accompanied the Lions Members because they never would have located us otherwise since we lived two miles behind Creighton on an abandoned farm.

My parents never bought many presents for the five of us as they were frugal but we were satisfied and we older children understood.

A very sad, quiet Christmas was in 1960 after my brother Willy had been killed in a car accident in March. I can visualise my father just sitting and looking at the floor while Mom cried often that day. So did I. My baby sister Lillian was a welcome distraction with her laughter and needs to be fed and changed. She kept me busy. Alex and I were already dating at this time and I was very happy to see him. He was a significant diversion in that solemn Christmas Day.

In 1972, we spent the first Christmas in our own house on Moxam Drive in Lively. I was tired. Besides teaching full time with all the activities that entailed, my two daughters had the mumps. However, Alex and I were excited to celebrate Christmas in our own home. The tree was up and decorated and the Nativity stable was in a place of honour. It was important to us that our little girls understood the real meaning of Christmas even as they opened their gifts from Santa elatedly.

Our third daughter was born in January of 1974 and Christmas with a little baby was such fun as she gazed enraptured at the lights on the tree and tried to take the ornaments off. Her older sisters put them back trying to teach their baby sister that she must not touch them. Alex and I enjoyed watching our daughters interact happily with each other.

Then in 1988, our first grandchild was born expanding our family happily. The joy Alex and I experienced with this baby girl brought a whole new dimension into our lives. Christmasses were exciting and happy and noisy now that we had a granddaughter and subsequently four more grandchildren who enriched our lives. Children appreciate and look forward excitedly to Christmas and as a result of observing their inspiring delight, adults feel the enraptured spirit as well.

Christmas is a wonderful time of year and its’ music enhances my soul. I love hearing and wishing a smiling Merry Christmas to family and friends.
