rick or Eat is Acadia Meal Exchange’s greatest project, last year it was
hugely successful and we raised over $15,000 in monetary and food
donations. The monetary donations were converted to nutritious food
donations and then given, along with the rest of the food donations , to
those in need via the Wolfville Area Interchurch Council Food Bank, the
Kid’s Action Program and Chrysalis House.
This year, Trick or Eat will be happening on Hallowe’en night, October
31st at about 6pm. Acadia student volunteers will be dressing up and
going door-to-door in Wolfville trick-or-treating, but instead of asking for
candy will be asking for non-perishable food donations and/or monetary
donations to go towards helping relieve local hunger.

a gymnasium and playing field.  Park.  “Herbin’s Cross” at the
During his time at Acadia, he
wrote and published poetry and
prose.  He continued to write
and publish throughout his life
and was the author of many
books and articles, both fiction
and historical, including The
Evangeline Country, an
introduction to an edition of
Longfellow’s Evangeline; Grand

Occupation of the Shores of
the Basin of Minas; History of

After graduation, Herbin
remained in Wolfville
and established his own jewelry
business, J. F. Herbin, Jeweller
and Optician.  His store served
as the town post office until the
late 1890s.  He was also active
in the community, serving as a
member of the Board of Trade,
as a town Councilor and, in
1902/03, as Mayor.  Herbin was
very interested in the culture
and history of the Acadian
people. He purchased dykelands

Hantsport Events Camp to Class Summary

S
For the full article, please visit our blog: grapevine.wolfville.org
teeped in a history of wooden ships and iron men, Hantsport is a
picturesque Town which is full of events this Halloween season.
Your first stop might be Churchill House. A grand Victorian home
tucked among stately cedars and oaks trees. The Churchill House, once
known as The Cedars, was the wedding gift of shipbuilding magnate
Ezra Churchill to his son, John. Upon touring the house, you will view
exquisitely decorated molding, original flooring, and wall coverings
embossed with the Churchill Coat of Arms. Records of many of the
ships that were built and that sailed from this tiny hamlet are archived

in the former nursery. Be sure to ask your guide about the legend of
Ondine and the painting that behaves mysteriously during a full moon.
Now...onto those events:

S
ummer is over and students (large and small) are back to class
after camp or holidays, but at the same time might be dealing with
some unwelcome visitors they may have picked up in their travels and
escapes. Their names are not a rose, by any other name, but, namely:
Pediculus humanus capitis and Phthirus pubis. And what, pray, might
these be? Why, none other than the unmentionables of head and crab
lice, respectively. September is peak season for lice, and they are “going
around.” When it comes to lice, however, it surely seems that the price
for fun can be a bit overwhelming and taxing – especially if parents are
dealing with a household of mixed adults and children. The laundry.
The nit picking. The sleepless nights. The itching. The vacuuming.
It’s exhausting, time consuming and tedious. And what to do if you
are a student and need to do masses of very hot laundry and drying?
The best advice: do not try to deal with this problem on your own.
Embarrassing? Yes, well, just a bit. Bottom line: Run, do not walk to
your nearest physician’s office or area medical clinic. It will save you
time, money and head aches in terms of mistakes made and time lost
due to the consequent population explosion. If you want some more
detail on the matter (more than you already have that is) then head

7 The Grapevine
Professor’s Perspective: Dr. Michael Robertson
F or the last eight and a half
years, I have had the privilege
of being a Professor of Physics
and Canada Research Chair
in Materials Science at Acadia
University and my research
focuses on the use of electron
microscopes to study the
properties of materials at very
high resolution. I use electrons
rather than light to form images
since I can get magnifications
greater than a million times
using electrons, whereas I would
be limited to about a thousand
times magnification with light.
This allows me to see how two
different materials join together

10 The Grapevine
Horoscopes for week of October 14th, 2010 © Copyright 2010 Rob Brezsny
ARIES (March 21-April 19):
Until recently, no cricket had
ever been observed pollinating a
flower. All the evidence showed,
in fact, that crickets don’t help
flowers -- they devour them.
Then one night last January on
the island of Reunion in the Indian Ocean, researchers discovered that
the species known as the raspy cricket was responsible for pollinating
wild orchids. They even caught the magic act on film. I regard this turn
of events as akin to an upcoming development in your life: Someone or
something that you’ve never thought of as a fertilizing force for you will
become one.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): My date and I decided to go see the film
You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger. As we entered the theater, we passed
a short, elderly Chinese woman in a brown uniform. She was bent over
sweeping the floor. Suddenly she stood up straight, looked me in the
eye, and extended her left hand toward me. Confused, I reached out
toward her. She quickly pressed something in my hand, then returned
to her sweeping. As I walked on, I unrolled the small paper scroll she
had given me. It read, “Tell your Taurus readers they should be alert
for helpful messages coming from sources they would usually ignore or
neglect.” I’m doing what she suggested.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Of all the signs in the zodiac, you are
currently the best at carrying out the following activities: gliding,
flowing, leaping, skipping, twirling, undulating, reverberating, gal-
loping, and rub-a-dub-dubbing. I suspect that you will also excel at
rumbling, romping, rollicking, cavorting, and zip-a-dap-doodling. If all
goes well, Gemini -- which is to say you show how much you love your
body and throw off any inhibitions you might have about celebrating
your instinctual nature -- then you will be at the low end of the scale in
performing these activities: shuffling, drooping, mumbling, wallowing,
pigeonholing, and pussyfooting.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): A reader wrote to me bemoaning the fact
that her new Cancerian boyfriend is addicted to safety. She speculated
that since he is a member of an astrological sign renowned for its timid-
ity, she should probably either get used to the suffocating lack of action
or else bolt from the relationship now. In reply, I sent her a quote from
one of the most heroic Cancerians of the 20th century, Helen Keller:
“Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. Security does not exist in
nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding
danger is no safer in the long run than exposure.” Moral of the story:
It’s a ripe time for you to rise up and refute the people in your life who
think you’re a brooding wallflower.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Helping your fellow humans can literally
enhance your strength. A Harvard study (tinyurl.com/BeExtraNice)
proved that people who did good deeds or even visualized themselves
doing good deeds had increased physical endurance and willpower.
Unfortunately, the study showed that those who harbor nefarious
intentions are also able to draw on extra fortitude. In other words, you
can boost your energy by either being compassionate or evil. I highly
recommend the latter over the former, Leo, especially now that you’re
entering a phase when it makes a lot of spiritual sense to build your
courage, vigor, and tonicity.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): “The art of medicine consists of amusing
the patient while nature cures the disease,” said French philosopher
Voltaire. With this in mind, let’s evaluate your current discomfort.
From what I can tell, healing forces beyond your control and outside of
your awareness are going to be working their mojo to chip away at your
problem. But it will still be wise for you to occupy yourself in activities
that you think will expedite the fix. Doing so will minimize your anxiet-
ies, allowing nature to do what it does best.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Usually you specialize in having a light
touch. You’d rather nudge than push. Nimble harmony is more interest-

ing to you than brute force. You
prefer your influence on people to
be appreciated, not begrudgingly
respected. And I certainly don’t
want you to forsake any of those
inclinations. But I would love to
see you add a dash of aggressive-
ness and a pinch of vehemence
to your repertoire in the coming
week. I’d be thrilled if you raised
your voice a bit and gesticulated
more vigorously and projected
your confidence with an elevated
intensity. According to my reading
of the astrological omens, your refined approach will benefit from a
dose of subliminal thunder.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Time magazine created a list of the 50
worst inventions. Included among the most terrible creations that
human ingenuity has ever come up with are plastic grocery bags, sub-
prime mortgages, hydrogenated oils, and pop-up ads. Now let’s switch
our attention to your personal equivalents of these monstrosities. To
climax the atonement phase of your own astrological cycle, I recom-
mend that you do the following: 1. Identify the three worst ideas you
have taken seriously during the past decade. 2. Carry out one formal ac-
tion to correct or make amends for the consequences of each bad idea.
3. Really, truly, forgive yourself as best as you can.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): For your assignment this week,
I have borrowed from a list of suggestions offered by Sagittarius poet
Kenneth Patchen in his book The Journal of Albion Moonlight. Feel free
to improvise as you carry out at least three. 1. Discourage all traces of
shame. 2. Bear no cross. 3. Extend all boundaries. 4. Blush perpetually
in gaping innocence. 5. Burrow beneath the subconscious. 6. Pass from
one world to another in carefree devotion. 7. Exhaust the primitive.
8. Generate the free brain. 9. Forego no succulent filth. 10. Verify the
irrational. 11. Acquire a sublime reputation. 12. Make one monster at
least. 13. Multiply all opinions. 14. Inhabit everyone.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Among Google searches starting
with the phrase “who is,” the top-rated is “God,” while “Satan” is a dis-
tant tenth. Running ahead of Satan but behind God are Lady Gaga and
Justin Beiber. If I were you, Capricorn, I wouldn’t be Google-searching
any bigger-than-life entities like those four in the coming week. The
characters you need to research are non-divine, non-celebrity types who
might bring interesting influences into your life -- people who would
have a direct influence on your access to resources and on your ability to
call forth the best from yourself.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Explorers found a 30,000-year-old
carved stone artifact in a German cave and brought it to the University
of Tubingen for study. Experts there determined that it had a dual
purpose for the ancient humans who made it. Phallic-shaped with rings
around one end, it was obviously a sex toy. But other markings indi-
cated it was also used to start fires by striking it against flints. I’d like to
make this power object your symbol of the week, Aquarius. You’re in a
phase when you should be alert for ways to mix business with pleasure
and practicality with adventure.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You’re not exceptionally scared of the
dark, Pisces, but sometimes you seem to be intimidated by the light.
You can summon the spunky courage to go crawling on your hands
and knees through dank tunnels and spooky caves in quest of treasure
that’s covered in primordial goo, but you may play hard to get when
you’re offered the chance to unburden yourself of your cares in wide-
open spaces. What’s up with that? Don’t get me wrong: I’m proud of
your capacity to wrestle with the shadows in the land of the lost; I’m
gratified by your willingness to work your karma to the bone. But I
would also love you to get a share of rejuvenating rest and ease now and
then. Do you think you could manage to have it both ways? I do.

famous during midnight screenings of the film starting in the late
1970’s, where audiences would come in costume, yell dialogue at the
screen and throw objects like toilet paper and toast when prompted by
the screen. The film is a send up to B-movie sci-fi/horror flicks and is
a ton of naughty fun, filled with great songs like ‘Hot Patootie’, ‘Sweet
Transvestite’, and the ‘Time Warp’ and bubbling over with healthy
sexual innuendo and big laughs. SIFE encourages spectators to dress
up in all things fishnet and leather and try for the Best Costume grand
prize being awarded by Porter’s Custom Trophies and Engravings. Visit
the Rocky Horror Websites for costume
ideas, to learn the songs and prepare
yourself for a fantastic way to watch
a film. Tickets are $15.00 a person or
$12.00 for students and can be purchased
in advance at Box of Delights or at the

Hello Dianne, what’s a Card Party? - Jeremy
A card party, in this instance, is where a
group of people come together at the
White Rock Community Hall to play a game of
cards called 45’s.  Usually there are anywhere
from 7-12 tables filled with 4 at a table.
 
Four people sit at a card table and two people
partner and play against the other two and
the two winners move to the next table and
play two new people.  The players who win
the most games out of ten are the winners
of prizes. Every individual has the chance of
winning one or more of six prizes.
 
This is a great opportunity for people to
socialize and have a lot of laughs at a very
reasonable cost.  Most of those in attendance
are usually seniors.  The community provides
the lunch and the White Rock Community
Association provides volunteer workers, the
prizes, tea, coffee, and juice.  It is a great pass
time for every Tuesday night from October
through to April.  In the summer card parties
(45s) are held at the Black River Community
Hall.

The Gertrudes tour Eastern Canada

In support of their highly anticipated new
album, Dawn Time Riot (October 19, Apple
Crisp Records), The Gertrudes tour Eastern
Canada this October and November. A
sampling of dates are as follows:
October 18 - Charlottetown, PE - Baba’s
October 21 - Wolfville, NS - Al Whittle Theatre
(8-10pm, $10 advance, $15 at door)
October 22 - Halifax, NS - The Foggy
Goggle (Halifax Pop Explosion)
“They have produced an album stronger
than the rock-solid limestone foundation
of Kingston and more futuristic than the
windmills of Wolfe Island.” – Thick Specs
“Euphoric opener ‘Cliff Jumping’ plays like a
brief trailer for the Gertrude sound to come –
choirs, old-time country and folk mixed with
rock propulsion. It’s like Arcade Fire, hugging
the Polyphonic Spree at a Bluegrass cook-out.”
- Americana UK
Dawn Time Riot is the debut LP release
from The Gertrudes, following their acclaimed
2009 EP, Hard Water (Apple Crisp Records).
The album was conceived as a loveletter to
Kingston, featuring over 100 Kingston guest
musicians, including the Queen’s Symphony
Orchestra, the Skeleton Park Children’s Choir,
and lead singer Annie Clifford’s Grandmother.
Dawn Time Riot was recorded in the Skeleton
Park neighbourhood (host of the Skeleton
Park Music Festival) at North Of Princess
Studios. The album was shaped with the
help of Apple Crisp Arts, a not-for-profit
music and arts collective that supports local
Kingston artists. Along with its record label,
it organizes a regular concert series, all-ages
festivals, workshops, an online zine, craft fair
and a music video club. Apple Crisp has been
supporting and expanding Kingston’s steady-
growing DIY music and arts scene.
 For more information on The Gertrudes,
visit: http://pigeonrow.com/the-gertrudes-dawn-
time-riot-apple-crisp-records. The Wolfville show
happens at the Al Whittle Theatre starting at 8pm.

WHO’S WHO: Douglas Hergett - War and Peace ...Of Mind!
I throw around the expression
“Oh I know that person” a
lot because I feel that I do know
a lot of people. What I should
say is “Oh I know OF them”
because after I interviewd this
issue’s Who’s Who I realised
that, despite saying that I’ve
known Doug Hergett many years,
I truly didn’t know much at all.
I am very excited for you to read
about this great man.
 
What I knew about Doug: Douglas
Hergett was born in Windsor,
Nova Scotia and has lived in many
places within the province. Doug
is a retired Anglican priest who
worked in various places and in
Wolfville at St. John’s Church for
28 years. I know Doug and his
wife Faye (The Fabulous Faye)
have three children (who live
locally) and four grandchildren
who bring them great joy. I
know Doug’s hobbies include
life long education and reading;
some of his favourite books
include Frankenstein by Mary
Shelley, Aurora Leigh by
Elizabeth Barrett Browning
and The Mountain and the Valley
by Ernest Buckler. Doug ONLY
watches great movies and I can
vouch for this after years of
recommending them to him and
he also enjoys looking at and
occasionally buying paintings,
finding insipration from local
artists like Roger Savage, Jean
Applewicks Candles
A s fall is upon us we have
begun production of our
advent candles in anticipation
of the coming season.  We can
provide you with everything
you need for this special time
of year.  Our candles are of the
highest quality, using our own
special recipe to provide a long
burn time and minimal smoke.  We received a new wax tank that
We offer various sizes and colour
combinations at competitive
prices.
 
As you may be aware, Applewicks
is a L’Arche Workshop for adults
with disabilities right here in
Wolfville, Nova Scotia. Please
view our website and learn more
about our activities and our
members. You may also use our
candles for a great fundraiser for
your community.  Please contact
The Grapevine
Hancock, Ron Stuart and David
Lacey. I know that Doug loves
Wolfville because of the access
to the university and the variety
of people, as well as the physical
beauty of the area.
What I didn’t know: Doug is a
published author! His first novel,
Visible Faith, was published in
1990 and was a history of the
Wolfville Area Inter Church
Council and the Inter Church
Housing Society and of the
collaboration of churches in
this area including, to provide
assitance to people in need
and repair and build houses
for low income families. But it
was the upcoming release of
his latest novel that sparked
this profile. For the past 20
years Doug has worked tirelessly
researching for his current book
entitled War Changes Everything,
a gripping family/history memoir
of how his Dad was “battle
fatigued” during World War II
and never really recovered but
lived quite well with the help of
Doug, his mother and sister. The
novel also follows the story of
a group of men from the valley
and elsewhere who served in the
3rd Anti-Tank regiment during
that war. The impact of battle
exhaustion on Doug’s father and
thus on his family is the novel’s
focus and is traced from 1939
until 2010. I am a reader of all
me so that I can show you how
this can work for you in bringing
about much needed funds.
 
For those of you who have used
our candles for a fund raiser
before please note that the prices
on the larger sets have come down
by $5.00 and $7.00 respectively.  applewicks@larchehomefires.org /
makes our process more efficient.  applewicks
The sets also come in clear bags as
a gift set for your convenience.
 
Some groups have a sample set
in display in the foyer of their
church or group to help sell.  Al Whittle Theatre
Please let me know if that is
something you require.
 
Remember to get your orders
in early so that you are not
disappointed. Please pass the

Who’s Who Brought to you by
genres and I am very excited
to get a copy of this work and
I can only imagine what an
emotional and theraputic process
it was for Doug to produce this
novel. The launching of War
Changes Everything-aftershocks
of battle exhaustion will take
place Saturday, October 23rd
from 1:30-3:00pm at the Royal
Canadian Legion Hall, 310 Main
Street, Wolfville. Come to the
legion, pick up a copy and meet
with Doug, get to know him or get
to know OF him...I recommend
both!
