102-year-old lived 'ordinary life'
Florence PRATT says she'll be voting in the election, but won't
say who for
By Paul AUSTIN, Sun Times Correspondent, Page A1
The new year brought another birthday for Kincardine resident
Florence
PRATT -- her 102nd.
PRATT marked her birthday Tuesday with a lively afternoon celebration
at Malcolm Place in Kincardine, surrounded by about 30 Friends,
family, and fellow residents. There was cake, presents and even
a little post-New Year's champagne. Kincardine resident Norm
DUNSMOOR entertained.
PRATT seemed happy to discuss any subject, including politics,
and noted that Huron-Bruce member of Parliament Paul
STECKLE
had called her earlier in the day to wish her a happy birthday.
"He doesn't miss anything, no wonder he gets elected," she said.
PRATT said she'll be voting in the upcoming federal election
but was coy
about who she would vote for.
PRATT recalled missing out on a lot of birthday parties as a
youngster because her mother used to kid her that she got all
her presents at Christmas and didn't need an extra party.
Asked what she chalks up her longevity to,
PRATT had a simple
answer. "I've just lived an ordinary life. I always had lots
to eat and lots to wear, so it wasn't that difficult to go on
living. I liked what I was doing; I didn't do the same job all
the time. You just sort of go on, whatever has to be done, you
do. That's the best I can tell you."
PRATT offered a little parting advice before the music started
up. She recalled being asked recently to join the Royal Canadian
Legion auxiliary and had asked why. The recruiter told her that
whatever job she took, she would get out of it what she put into
it.
"I thought that was a good theory. Do you get what you want?
Well, it depends on how much effort you put into doing it."

Mrs. MOLES celebrates a century!
By Michael
GENNINGS,
Page 1
There is a triple-digit birthday girl in Clearview Township.
Mary MOLES of Batteaux turns 100 years old on Sunday.
The local woman, who now lives with her daughter Ellen and son-in-law
Norman, talked about her first century during an interview last
Thursday.
For starters,
MOLES said she doesn't exactly know how she got
to be 100.
"I'm really not sure to be honest. I guess you just have to live
one day at a time," she said.
And MOLES - still quite spry - added she doesn't view her 100th
birthday as a big deal really, even if others do.
"Really it's just another day to me," she said.
MOLES was born in Nottawa, to Ida and Joseph
CHASE. At the time
the family lived in a two-storey, clapboard house on Cty. Rd. 124,
across from where Smart's Storage is now located. The home no
longer stands.
Her father operated a mill and later a farm - where the Chase
family lived - on the south side of Batteaux Sideroad.
MOLES was the youngest growing up. She had three older sisters
and an older brother.
She noted that longevity is somewhat of a family trait. Her dad
died in his 89th year, her mother in her 90th year and her sister
in her 101st year.
"So I guess from that you can see it's kind of in the genes,"
she said, chuckling.
Growing up,
MOLES attended the old Nottawa Elementary School
and Collingwood Collegiate Institute, which was located at the
corner of Hume and Hurontairo Streets in Collingwood.
After finishing Grade 13,
MOLES said she went to Toronto Normal
School for one year in order to become a teacher.
"I always liked children and at that time there weren't a lot
of opportunities for the females,"
MOLES explained, when asked
to elaborate why she chose to become a teacher.
Her first job was at a one-room, yellow brick schoolhouse in
Bruce Township. Officially the school was known as School Section
(S.S.) 9.
"But after two years my parents, who were getting older, wanted
me back at home so I came back to the Batteaux," she said.
MOLES would then get a job at S.S. 20 Nottawasaga - the decommissioned
school that is located directly across from where she now lives
on Nottawasaga Concession 6.
"I started there in September 1929. I guess there were about
20 to 30 students," she remembered.
Class ran from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday to Friday. Most of the
students lived on farms and walked to and from the red brick
school each day.
For MOLES the days were long and busy. She taught Grade 1 to
8 students math, reading, history, geography and so forth.
"Often at nights I'd be marking papers or getting ready for the
next day. There were no secretaries to help out back then," she
said.
And did MOLES ever find need for the strap, when students got
out of line?
"Occasionally - but not very often," she said, laughing at the
question.
After three years at S.S. 20,
MOLES moved to a school in Kirkville
- a tiny community west of Collingwood. She taught in the one-room
school for seven years and then transferred closer to home -
to Nottawa Elementary School.
In 1941 she married her husband - Ross
MOLES, a farmer. The two
met when she was teaching in Batteaux. They made a home at the
farm her parents had moved to on the Batteaux Sideroad and later
built the house that she lives in today.
MOLES said she left teaching in 1942 to start a family - going
on to have her daughters Ellen
(KLINCK) and Lenore
(PRESLEY.)
But after 10 years it was time to get back into the classroom,
she said. Her posting was S.S. 13, also located on Nottawasaga
Concession 6.
"So much had changed though when I went back," she noted. "The
school system was different, the books were different, and the
administration was different. For the first little while I just
stumbled through."
MOLES eventually found her footing though and went on to spend
seven years at the school, until it was closed.
"She really was a wonderful teacher," recalled 60-year-old Donna
ROBINSON of Stayner. "She was a very helpful teacher, she always
had control of her classroom, Grades 1 through 8 - I never had
any complaints about her."
After leaving S.S. 13,
MOLES went to Baywood School on Fairgrounds
Road. The building is now home to the Manito Shrine Club.
"I was there until retiring in 1968," she said.
In total, MOLES said she taught for 32 years. Her career, she
added, was very satisfying.
And because she's stayed in the area,
MOLES has been able to
keep in touch with some of her students.
"Unfortunately so many of the older ones are dropping off now.
They are in their 70s," she said.
"Just recently though I got a nice thrill. A little girl I taught
years ago - she is 76 now - sent me a birthday card and a nice
letter."
In her retirement years - her husband died in 1980 -
MOLES said
she has been able to enjoy reading, television and putting together
history books for the different schools where she taught. She's
also put together family history books.
Today she can't read much due to bad eyesight but
MOLES said
she does enjoy playing solitaire.
"I don't always win though," she quipped.
Another favourite card game is cribbage.
MOLES plays with another
retired teacher who comes to visit about every six weeks.
She worships at the Anglican Christ Church in Batteaux as well.
Getting older though means making periodic changes and
MOLES
said at 85 she had to give up her driver's licence. And today
she doesn't get out much either.
"I don't like to go out often. I have excellent health really
- but my big complaint is my eyes and my ears…they aren't good
and that makes it difficult for me in crowds," she explained.
Looking back on her life,
MOLES acknowledged she's seen a lot
of changes. She lived through the First World War, The Great
Depression, the Second World War, the Cold War, and the societal
changes of the 1960s and 1970s.
"I can remember my first car ride," she pointed out, when asked
about all the different things she's done. "I was nine years
old. There were two people in Nottawa who had a car: Bill
COPELAND
and George
CONN.
Bill took me for a ride. I don't know what make
it was and I don't know where all we went. It wasn't far though."
Friends and family can take a car ride of their own on Sun.,
July 15 - stopping at Christ Church cottage in Batteaux, where
a birthday come and go tea will be held in honour of
MOLES.
The
social runs from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m.

Martha CHAMBERLAIN and Sheelah
McNEILL were expecting to have
only one child, but a funny thing happened at the clinic. Tests
showed that Ms.
CHAMBERLAIN, a lawyer with the Children's Aid
Society, was pregnant with twins.
"I don't know if you have ever had the feeling of your knees
going weak," say Ms.
McNEILL, a financial planner. "We thought
the doctor made a mistake."
But he didn't. Emily Louise McNeill
CHAMBERLAIN was born on February
5 at 9: 09 a.m., weighing six pounds, nine ounces. Her brother,
Matthew Daniel, arrived four minutes later and three ounces heavier.
They joined older sister Rosemary at home in High Park three
days later.
Having twins shouldn't have been such a surprise, as Ms.
CHAMBERLAIN's
mother is a twin, Ms.
McNEILL says. And though her grandmother
had 11 children, she's not sure they want that many. "They're
addictive," Ms.
McNEILL. "

By Jordan PRESS,
Saturday,▲▼
March▲ 26, 2005, Page M4
After breaking Alana
HARDY's water to induce labour, staff at
Women's College hospital had trouble finding the expectant mother.
That's because the 32-year-old elementary school teacher was
avoiding them.
It was the night of the two-hour season opener of The Amazing
Race and she wanted to catch her favourite show, so she hid out
in a small room to watch it with her partner, Tim
McNAMARA.
Doctors
located her after the show ended, and a few hours later she gave
birth to Luke
McNAMARA, born March 2 weighing 9 pounds, 11 ounces.
While she was eager to watch television, she never expected to
be on television herself. But before Ms.
HARDY had slept even
an hour, staff asked if she would be interviewed on camera about
the birth. She assumed the tape would be used to train medical
students or hospital staff, so she declined when asked if she
wanted to change out of the hospital gown or put on makeup.
"Ten minutes later, in walks CTV News to interview me about the
epidural," she says. "Everybody and their neighbour saw it."
In case they didn't, Mr.

By Jordan PRESS,
Saturday,▲
April 9, 2005, Page M4
It was Canada Day last year and Patrick
BOURK and his wife, Danielle
CHANDLER, were at home in Bloor West Village, sitting on their
backyard porch with Mr.
BOURK's sister, who was visiting from
Qatar.
They were all enjoying a sunny afternoon watching soccer's Euro
2004 semifinal when they got the call.
The fertility treatments and surgeries Ms.
CHANDLER, 37, had
endured and the string of failures the couple had suffered through
for three years were over. Ms.
CHANDLER, a lawyer, was pregnant,
and the clinic said everything was going well.
"And nine months later, out comes the most beautiful thing we
could be blessed with," says 32-year-old Mr.
BOURK, also a lawyer.
Olivia
Claire
Chandler
BOURK was born on March 21, weighing seven
pounds, eight ounces.
Three days later, Mr.
BOURK's sister gave birth to her second
child.
"It's a long journey," Mr.
BOURK says, "and we really appreciate
how difficult the process can be."
