On Monday, November 30,the Bala Cynwyd Library
will present a talk on the com -ing of railroads to Lower Mer -ion. The development of rail-roads, says the presenter, LeonLevine, was integral to thedevelopment of the commu-nity we know now, and is thestory of many “very interest-ing personalities,” includingvisionaries, engineers andthousands of Irish laborers.Much of the innovation anddetermination that the con-struction of early railroads re -quired nationwide was pio-neered here in the Phila del -phia area. And, as anyonewho’s taken a class in Ameri -can history knows, railroadswere essential to the develop -ment of the United States asa modern, industrial country.Levine has lived on the Main Line for 50 years and has been a railroad buff since the age of 5. As an adult and a local res-
ident, be became interested in how, he says, “railroads fit into the environmental history of Lower Merion.” Levine is aprofessional geographer and an Urban and Environmental Planner. He serves as treasurer on the boards of the LowerMerion Historical Society and the Bala Cynwyd Library.
Levine will discuss the five railroad lines thathave gone through Lower Merion, plus a sixthwhose six feet of track still exist and have nevercarried a locomotive. (Levine will reveal theline at the talk.) The first line, which opened in1831, was part of a system of rail, canals and in -clines that connected Philadelphia and Pitts -burgh; it was called the Main Line Works of Navi -
gation, from which the Main Line got its name.Another line was built not because it was need -ed but to compete with one that covered thesame ground or, Levine says, for “spite.” Part ofit is now the Cynwyd line, still in daily rush houruse.Electrification of the commuter rail lines in
Lower Merion came in 1915, coincidentally, the year the Bala Cynwyd Library was founded. The locomotives were clean-er and quieter than those powered by steam, which contributed significantly to the quality of life on the Main Line. Local trains contributed to the war effort during the Second World War by providing a rail link to the Autocar factory in
Ardmore, which produced half-car, half-tank vehicles and shipped them out from a freight yard now occupied by TraderJoe’s in Suburban Square.The talk, which will be accompanied by a PowerPoint presentation of pictures from the Lower Merion Historical Society
archives, will be on Monday, November 30 at the Bala Cynwyd Library 131 Old Lancaster Avenue at 7:30 p.m. Admissionis free. For information, call 610-664-1196.

Chef Kriebelknows that tomatoes and avocados are a key ele-ment in many holiday dishes and offers these tips:“Do not refrigerate – cold is not good for tomatoes.Keep them at room temperature, check for bruisesand marks on the tomato.” Since making the per-fect party guacamole starts with the perfect avo-cado, he suggests these tips: “They ripen/soften after
harvesting. If you want to speed up the ripening processput them in a brown paper bag. To slow ripening processput them in the refrigerator. Check to make sure they arefirm.” Other hints and hacks featured throughout the monthinclude making a cake look and taste bakery-like, wrappinga present like a pro, keeping sheets bright white, and more.For info, call 1-800-23-LOEWS or visit www.loewshotels.com. • McGillin’s Olde Ale House, 1310 Drury Street in Phila -

Penn Vet’s Ryan Hospital is hosting the 7th annual National Service Dog Eye Exam eventsponsored by the American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists (ACVO) and Merial.
On May 6, 8, 12-16 and 21, Penn Vet’s Dr. Gustavo Aguirre, professor of ophthalmology;Dr. William Crumley, staff ophthalmologist; and Dr. Stephen Gross, staff ophthalmologist,will join 190 ACVO board-certified ophthalmologists conducting eye examinations across thecountry.
The ACVO/Merial National Service Dog Eye Exam is a philanthropic effort generously pro -vided to the public by the board-certified Diplomates of the American College of VeterinaryOphthalmologists, who donate their time and services to provide free ocular exams to quali -fied service animals.
As a way to serve dogs who dedicate their lives to serving us, these exams are free to reg-istered service dogs across the United States and Canada. Through these efforts, service doghealth can be improved and potential disease averted.
How to Make an AppointmentTo qualify, animals must be “active working animals” that were certified by a formal train-
ing program or organization or currently enrolled in a formal training program. The certi-fying organization can be national, regional, or local in nature.
1. Owners/agents for the animal(s) must FIRST register the animal via an online registra-tion form at www.ACVOeyeexam.org. Registration ends April 30.
2. Once registered online, the owners/agents will receive a registration number and willbe allowed access to a list of participating ophthalmologists in their area.
3. Owners/agents may then contact Ryan Hospital’s appointment desk (215-746-8387) toschedule an appointment
What Veterinary Ophthalmologists Look for During the ExamDuring the complete ocular exam, veterinary specialists look for problems including red-
ness, squinting, cloudy corneas, retinal disease, early cataracts, and other serious abnor-malities. Early detection and treatment are vital to these working animals.
The American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists® is an approved veterinary special -ty organization of the American Board of Veterinary Specialties, and is recognized by theAmerican Veterinary Medical Association. Its mission is “to advance the quality of veterinarymedicine through certification of veterinarians who demonstrate excellence as special istsin veterinary ophthalmology.” To become board certified, a candidate must complete a Doctorof Veterinary Medicine degree, a one-year internship, a three-year approved residency, andpass a series of credentials and examinations.

International re
cording artist and 2012
Blues Music Awards nominee Alexis P.
Suter will b
e playing a free concert o
n Fri -
day, February 7 at 8 p.m. in Julia Ball Audi -
torium on Gwynedd Mercy University’s
campus. The well-known ensemble has per -
formed at Blues concerts and festiv
als all
over the country,
including the Cincinnati
Blues Festival, T
ampa Bay Blues Festival
and the Mont Tremblant Music Festiv
al.
Suter and her band began growing in popu -
larity while performing regularly at Levon
Helm’s Midnight Ramble Sessio
ns in Wood -
stock, NY. They opened the show at The
Midnight Ramble in Woodstock, NY over 90
times and have since played to sold-out
audiences around the country.
Alexis was nominated for Best S
oul Blues
Female Artist at th
e 33rd Annual Blues Music
Awards and her song, “A
ll Over Again,” w
as
NPR’s “Song of th
e Day” in January 2012.
“When I first h
eard her voice, I was m
em-
orized and virtu
ally put in a tra
nce. Her music tra
nscends styles—
it includes blues, s
oul,
folk, gospel, and jazz. Gwynedd Mercy Universit
y is truly fortunate to have a performer as
fine as Alexis Suter here on our campus,”
Carol Evans, director of Gwynedd Mercy Uni ver -
sity’s s
inging group the Voices of Gwynedd, said.

What did it mean to our
grandparents? What will it
mean to our grandchildren?
WHAT WAS IT LIKE FOR OUR
ancestors to say goodbye to the shtetl, to set
out to discover new lives for themselves, along
with all of the liberties the free world had to
offer? At the dawn of the enlightenment,
how did our parents adapt their Judaism
to the developments of a modern age?
And what can we learn from their
struggles, in order to connect
more deeply with our own
Jewish identities?

The Friends Free Library at Germantown
Friends School celebrated National Library
Week by asking library visitors (students, em -
ployees, parents and community members) to
share how libraries have changed their lives.
“It has been so much fun to hear all of the
different stories,” says library assistant Kath -
ryn Murphy. People wrote on a dry-erase sign
and shared a “selfie” photo to the nationwide
hashtag campaign #NLW14 #LivesChange.
The stories included a high-school student
recalling memorizing her library card number
before she knew her phone number, a pre school -
er writing that reading books about dinosaurs
makes him feel like he is “living with the dino -
saurs” and a community patron sharing his dream
of one day becoming a librarian. “Dreams are
discovered in libraries and libraries provide a
path for those dreams to come true,” says Murphy.
Kackie St. Clair, head of the Friends Free Library,
says, “Libraries are a place to connect your
knowledge and your curiosity to the worlds be -
yond the library walls; and a much-needed place
for some peace
and quiet.”
At the FFL, the
staff assists com -
munity mem-
bers with com-
puter skills, writ -
ing resumes and
filling out job
applications.
The also get to
know and help every student. “These connections may be small but they are significant in
building a sense of community and belonging,” says Murphy. “Libraries provide endless
resources and support—for FREE! That is a beautiful thing.”

The American Red Cross encourages individuals and organizations to give something that means something this win-ter by making a lifesaving blood donation or hosting a blood drive.
Blood donations often decline from now to New Year’s Day when holiday festivities pull people away from their donationappointments. Seasonal illnesses, such as colds and the flu, can also have a serious impact on blood donationsIn addition, there are fewer blood drives during the winter months when many hosting organizations postpone drives
while people are traveling for the holidays. Severe winter weather may also cause sched-uled blood drives to be canceled. Despite the busy holiday season and threat of extreme freezing weather, the need for blood
remains steady. Organizations can help by hosting a blood drive during the winter months,and eligible donors are encouraged to make an appointment to give blood. Donors with allblood types are needed, especially those with types O negative, B negative, A negative andAB blood. Visit redcrossblood.org to learn more about hosting a blood drive. To make an appoint-
ment to donate blood, download the free Red Cross Blood Donor App from app stores, visitwww.redcrossblood.org or call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767). Donors can now use theBlood Donor App to access their donor card and view vital signs from previous donations.
Upcoming local blood donation opportunities:• Lower Merion: December 9: 11 a.m. - 4 p.m., Kohelet Yeshiva High School, 223 N. High -

at 7 p.m. Chanlan
Lee, age 8, pass-

a severe case of
viral encephali-

youngest schol-
arship student
at the Nelly Ber-
man School of
Music and quite
an accomplished
violinist for his
young age.
Chanlan had a
deep passion for
music that was transparent and vibrant. He was involved
in not only solo performances, but chamber groups and
intensive summer camps. His hard work paid off when he
was the youngest soloist chosen to perform on the stage
at the Kimmel Center as a platinum winner of the NBS Golden
Key Competition. In addition to his heart for playing, he was
also dedicated to the scholarship program that supplement-
ed his lesson fees. To show his appreciation, he took initia-

making her one of a select group
of Americans to have attained
that honor. A member of the
Broadcasting and Cable Hall of
Fame, Roberts also serves on
the boards of several non-prof-

and Civic Participation.
Ivy Young Willis was a pio-

The League of Women Voters
and the World Affairs Council.
