Dixfield veteran honored by DAR with quilt FARMINGTON — Colonial Daughters Chapter Daughters of the American Revolution recently presented a quilt made by Melanie J. Farmer, of Temple, to Back In The Maine Stream, to be given to one of its members, the culmination of an idea that was formed more than a year ago. In June 2019, Colonial Daughters Chapter DAR invited Steven Rothert, USN retired, of Farmington, to present a program and slide show of BITMS, which is a nonprofit organization run by disabled veterans who have a strong desire to help other disabled veterans increase their quality of life and heal physical and emotional trauma through recreational fishing. Fishing trips with BITMS range from a simple day trip for smallmouth bass on the Androscoggin River, to multi-day trips to extravagant lodges to fish for exotic species, or a deep sea fishing 10 miles out in the Atlantic Ocean. The DAR members en-

joyed the presentation immensely and with one member, outgoing chapter regent, Melanie Farmer, of Temple, the wheels started turning. What could our chapter do for at least one of these veterans? And the quilt idea was born. Farmer found the quilt pattern online and she was fascinated with the curved pieces in the blocks and thought that if it was made with various shades of blue it would resemble rippling waters. The backing is complemented with fishing theme material. BITMS has since dissolved, because of the COVID-19 pandemic. However, when the queen-sized quilt was finished, Farmer presented it to Rothert to be given to a veteran who had been a member. Rothert presented it to William Clunie, of Dixfield. Clunie joined the Navy in 1980, went through boot camp and then Hospital Corps School at Great Lakes, Ill., then to Camp Pendleton in California for Field Medical Service School. He served at Balboa Hospital’s Intensive Care Unit before being transferred back to Camp Pendleton for the remainder of his enlistment, as an instructor. He also ran a medical clinic at the First Force Service Group, 1st MarDiv, NCO Leadership Academy. After five years of service Clunie left the Navy as a Hospital Corpsman 2nd Class. Clunie said he served with much pride and felt honored to have spent his time in the service of his country.

Submitted photo
Oxford County’s new champion big tree, and the newest state champion, is measured. The tree is in Bethel. SOUTH PARIS — Oxford County’s newest Big Tree champion and new Maine state champion is a balsam poplar in Bethel, the Oxford County Soil and Water Conservation District has announced. The tree, at the home of Scott and Michele Cole, is 105 feet tall, 16.16 feet in circumference, and has a total of 318.6 points. In all in the latest tree survey, Oxford County lost one state champ and added 10 new trees to the Maine Register of Big Trees, for a total of 17 state champions.
Oxford County now has its first two nominations for the National Registry of Big Trees. The two entries are a Mountain Paper Birch, also located in Bethel, and an Eastern Hophornbeam, planted on Paris Hill in 1812.

Annual wife-carrying contest draws 16 couples
The first, second and third-place winning teams at the North American Wife Carrying Championship, held Oct. 9 at Sunday River. NEWRY — Finishing with a time of 53.85 seconds, North American Wife Carrying Champions Olivia and Jerome Roehm, of team Lovebirds from Newark, Del., were crowned the winners for a second consecutive year during the 21st annual Wife-Carrying Contest at Sunday River Resort. Team Lovebirds competed against 15 other couples in the contest, which was modified for COVID-19 safety protocols. All couples raced in single heats against the clock, rather than head-to-head, and winners were selected by the fastest time for their only run on the race course, rather than pitting the fastest two couples against one another in a final heat. In addition to the race format modifications that were made to the event this year, the event was moved from Saturday to Friday, masks were required at all times except when a couple was on the course, and spectating was limited and socially distanced. Along with bragging rights and entry into the World Wife Carrying Championship in Finland for 2021, the Roehms won Olivia’s weight in beer, as well as five times her weight in cash, totaling 144 16-ounce Shipyard Finder New England IPA beers and $570. Second place was awarded to Karen May and John Lund, of team Hugs, Kisses, and Chicken Stock, from Los Angeles, Calif., with a time of 1.01.75. Lund and May also took home the prize for the combined age over-80
category. Multi-year champions Jesse Wall and Christine Arsenault, of team Valhalla If You Hear Me, from Oxford, finished with a time of 1.05.34. The category of combined weight of over 350 pounds was awarded to team Bottoms Up, Liza and Adam Drew of Harrisville, N.H. Built to international specifications, the North American Wife Carrying Championship course is 278 yards long, with two log hurdles and one water obstacle often referred to as the “Widow Maker.” Choice of hold is up to each couple, most of whom choose the Estonian Carry, where the woman’s thighs rest on the man’s shoulders in an upside down piggyback. Helmets are not required but often used. The North American race format varies slightly from Finland’s World Championship in that there is no minimum weight limit for the wife and the “man and wife” pair must both be 21 years old. There is no requirement for the couple to be married, or for the couple to consist of a man and a woman. Based on the 19th century Finnish legend, wife-carrying became a sport as a result of men stealing wives from neighboring villages as means to prove their worth and strength to famed henchman, Herkko Ronkainen, also known as Ronkainen the Robber. Men who were able to carry their stolen wives in the wilderness, over stones, stumps, fences and

The event preceded the theatrical premiere of “Couples of Wife Carrying,” a feature-length mockumentary film about Sunday River’s competition.

MOVIE REVIEW
‘Honest Thief’ Lucas Allen (Open Road/Briarcliff Entertainment) Just when you thought you wouldn’t be able to see the biggest stars back on the big screen for a while, here comes an unexpected treat for the fall season. “Honest Thief” just dropped into theaters unexpectedly with little promotion and plenty of
slack to pick up at the box office. It’s going to take a big-name action star and a solid premise to get more people back into bigscreen entertainment. For many years, Tom (Liam Neeson) has been successfully robbing banks undetected, and the the media dubbed him the In-and-Out Burglar. But then he falls in love with grad student Annie (Kate Walsh), which got him to consider retiring from his line of work for a better life. So, he calls up Agent Barker (Robert Patrick) at the FBI to turn himself in and exchange a deal for a reduced sentence. Meanwhile, two other agents Nivens (Jai Courtney) and Hall (Anthony Ramos), as-

signed to the case, find $3 million of the $9 million in stolen loot in a storage unit. Nivens convinces Hall they should keep the money for themselves. Just as the agents are about to kill the burglar for the rest of the money, Barker intervenes. He gets shot to death by Nivens before Tom can escape. Now, framed and on the run, Tom has to use all his skills to remain undetected and clear his name. When Annie’s life is also threatened, Tom uses an extra set of skills to expose the agents’ plan and set things right. Unlike previous Neeson films, where drama takes a back seat to the action, this film makes the
story’s drama the main showcase along with the action. The script does a fine job of finding the right balance between the two genres, so that each scene works to compliment this mashup without overlapping too much. It helps that you have a believable lead character along with a love story that helps drive the main character’s motivations. You’ll find yourself in suspense some of the time rooting for the thief to make the next move. Though not as much action as the actor’s previous films, the sequences themselves aren’t all that disappointing. There’s a greater display of car action with chases being
filmed in and around the city of Boston. As for the fight scenes, they’re few and far between with each of them lasting under a minute. But then there’s an exploding house scene that hilariously added CG fire straight out of a video game. With all that said, much of the action remains entertaining and what you expect from a mid-budget actioner. Neeson once again commands the screen with equal parts emotional and intimidating intensity. He also brings much more humanity to the character than simply being a snarling, revenge-seeking action character. He and Walsh have very good chemistry as the two actors
wonderfully deliver their romantic scenes. Courtney gets to have a little fun chewing scenery as the villain, while Donovan also brings the comic relief with much of his scenes including his pet dog. There’s some fun to be found in Honest Thief especially with all the action and the drama. It’s both your typical Liam Neeson action film with a heavy dose of suspenseful drama. It’s also one of the many reasons why it’s important to see films like this on the big screen. THE MOVIE’S RATING: PG-13 (for strong violence, crude references, and brief strong language) THE CRITIC’S RATING: 3.25 Stars (Out of Four)

THE AMATEUR WORD NERD
The Healthy Geezer
As American as pumpkin pie
By: Fred Cecitti Q. Can you get Lyme disease in Hawaii? A. It’s possible, but the odds are against it. This is from the Hawaii State Department of Health: “Lyme disease is an illness caused by bacteria called Borrelia burgdorferi. Lyme disease is the most common tick-borne illness reported on the mainland United States but is not found in Hawaii, since the type of tick that spreads this disease is not present in Hawaii.� The federal government’s Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has identified the Northeast, the upper Midwest and the West Coast as the places you’re most likely to get Lyme disease. However, Lyme disease is found in many parts of the United States, Europe, Asia and Australia. You should check with the health departments in your area. Lyme disease is caused by bacteria spread by bites primarily from deer ticks, which are brown and often no bigger than a pin head. The disease was named for a Connecticut town where it was first recognized in 1975. Lyme disease can cause fever, headaches, fatigue, joint pain, sore muscles, stiff neck and a skin rash that usually begins where the tick dug in. The rash may start out as a small red spot that can get bigger. A ring within the spot can fade and create a “bull’s eye.� Some people with Lyme disease get many red spots. If you don’t treat Lyme disease, it can spread to the heart, joints and the nervous system. Patients with late Lyme disease can suffer permanent damage. If Lyme disease spreads to the heart, the person may feel an irregu-
lar or slow heartbeat. The disease is rarely fatal. Lyme disease is treated with antibiotics. In most cases of early Lyme disease, two to four weeks of oral antibiotics kill the bacteria. If the disease has progressed, your doctor may recommend an intravenous antibiotic for two to four weeks. This IV treatment is usually effective, although it may take some time to recover. Lyme disease is often misdiagnosed. The disease’s symptoms are shared with other conditions such as viral infections, joint disorders, muscle pain (fibromyalgia), chronic fatigue syndrome and depression. There is no human vaccine for Lyme disease available. There was a vaccine approved by the Food and Drug Administration in 1998. It was pulled from the market in 2002. The CDC reports that there are more than 30,000 cases of Lyme disease each year. Most cases are reported in the summer when people are outdoors and ticks are most active. Only a minority of deer tick bites lead to Lyme disease. The longer the tick remains attached to your skin, the greater your risk of contracting the disease. You aren’t likely to get Lyme disease if the tick has been attached to your skin for less than 48 hours. To remove a tick, use fine-tipped tweezers. Grab the tick as close to your skin as possible. Pull in a steady upward motion until the tick comes out. Then apply an antiseptic to the bite area and wash your hands with soap and water. Save the tick for possible identification by a doctor The best method of fighting Lyme disease is to prevent tick bites. The following are some recommendations:
sandals) and a hat. Tuck pant legs into socks or shoes, and tuck shirts into pants. Light-colored garments are better for locating ticks.
• Stay on trails and avoid
walking through low bushes and long grass.
• Use an insect repellent containing DEET permethrin.
or
• After you spend time outdoors, check for ticks. Then wash and dry clothing at high temperatures.

It’s that time of year when everything turns to pumpkin. The word pumpkin comes from an ancient Greek word meaning melon, but it’s actually a squash, a part of the botanical family that includes cucumbers. Every part of a pumpkin is edible, including the flowers and seeds, and they are grown all over the world except Antarctica. Even Alaska grows pumpkins. But the self-proclaimed pumpkin capital of the world is Morton, Ill., home of Libby’s, the vegetable company. In 2017 pumpkin-flavored sales totaled more than $414 million. Besides Starbuck’s popular Pumpkin Latte, other pumpkin products include dog food, deodorant, cereals, yogurt, Jello, candy, kettle corn, beer and even a limited-edition Spam. Pumpkins are 90 percent water and record large pumpkins can weigh more than 1,200 pounds. The Irish brought the tradition of pumpkin carving to America when they im-
migrated to the U.S. Pumpkins did not exist in Ireland, where ancient Celtic cultures hollowed turnips and placed embers in them on All Hallow’s Eve to ward off evil spirits. The Irish in America found pumpkins plentiful and much easier to carve. Pumpkins and other squash were some of the first crops colonists planted when settlers arrived in America in 1621. Apples were not known in the colonies until John Winthrop, a founder of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, ordered apple seedlings from England in 1631. Pies, a traditional dish in early colonial times, were mostly savory and generally a mixture of sliced pumpkins and other vegetables baked in pastry crusts, not the sweet dessert we think of today. It’s hard to picture New England without apples, but during the first decade of the Plymouth Colony pumpkins ruled. It’s arguable that the expression “as American as apple pie� should really be “as American as pumpkin pie.�
