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.

his jazz interpretation of Beatles music featuring Special Guest Joanna Pascale. At 10 p.m.,he’ll make his Philadelphia debut of “Springsteen Reimagined,” featuring the innovative jazzarrangements of Springsteen’s iconic “Born to Run.” Paul has assembled an incredible groupof musicians featuring Tony Miceli-vibraphones, Chico Huff-guitar, John Swana-E.V.I., TimBrey-piano and Anwar Marshall-drums.

He was commissioned by producer Michael Kline of Cape May’s Exit ZeroInternational Jazz Festival to reimagine Springsteen’s Born to Run as jazz in honor of thealbum’s 40th Anniversary and he headlined it at the festival last May. Jost said, “I’m honoredto have been tapped by Michael Kline as the person to re-imagine the music of such aniconic artist from my native state. I love the images Springsteen paints with his lyrics andthey serve as the inspiration for our reinvention of the music.” This is, in a way, a collabo-rative effort by Jost. In addition to his arrangements, Jost asked legendary musician BarryMiles to write some of the arrangements. Roger LaMay, general manager of WXPN-88.5 FMattended the concert in Cape May and said, “It’s fascinating to see these iconic songs re -imagined through a jazz lens. It forces you to hear the music and lyrics in a very differentlight.”The highly popular Joanna Pascale is a Philadelphia-based vocalist who believes lyrics

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.

it includes blues, s

oul,

folk, gospel, and jazz. Gwynedd Mercy Universit

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 -

land Avenue.• Conshohocken: December 14: 9 a.m. - 2 p.m., Spring Mill Corporate Center, 1100 Hector
