Arts at the DockTHE THIRD SUNDAY IN JULY is always a day to which we look forward. That’swhen the Village of Hilton Beach hosts its annual ‘Arts at the Dock’ event.
Teresa Parker and her camera were there to capture the sights and the atmosphere ofthis wonderful offering of so many beautiful creations by talented artists and arti-sans, working in so many different media.
Teresa tells us that she went early, because it looked like it might rain. On the brightside, she found the cloudy sky made better lighting for her photos. That’s our Teresa– always finding the rainbow in any situation!

A teenage boy had just passed his drivingtest and asked his father when they coulddiscuss his use of the car. His father saidhe’d make a deal with his son. “You bringyour grades up from a C to a B average,study your Bible a little and get your haircut. Then we’ll talk about the car.” Theboy thought about that for a moment, de-cided he’d settle for the offer and theyagreed on it.
After about six weeks his fathersaid, “Son, you’ve brought your grades upand I’ve observed that you have beenstudying your Bible, but I’m disappointedyou haven’t had your hair cut.”
The boy said, “You know, Dad I’ve beenthinking about that, and I’ve noticed in mystudies of the Bible that Samson had longhair, John the Baptist had long hair,Moses had long hair, and there’s evenstrong evidence that Jesus had long hair.”
The dad simply replied”Did you also no-tice that they all walked everywhere theywent?”

WE HAVE ALL OWNED A TEDDY BEAR at one time, buthave you ever wondered how the Teddy Bear received itsname? Did you know there was a Teddy Bear being made inGermany at the same time? I’m getting ahead of the story.Let’s go back a little and learn how the Teddy Bear received itsname and how American president Theodore “Teddy” Roo-sevelt ties into the tale.
It was said the name came after a hunting incident in Missis-sippi in November 1902 where Roosevelt refused to shoot abear that the other hunters had captured. He called the otherhunters “unsportsmanlike”. Although he, himself refused toshoot the bear he suggested that the bear be put out of itsmisery. Of course political cartoonists heard of this incidentand busily began to draw up their interpretations of the inci-dent. At first the cartoons were a realistic drawing of a blackbear, then eventually over time they became a cartoon imageof a bear.
Morris Mitchom saw the illustrations which inspired him tocreate a tiny stuffed bear. He sent one and a letter to Roo-sevelt to receive permission to use his name. The toy was a hitand Mitchom began the Ideal Novelty and Toy Company andas they say the rest is history.
Now, all the way over in Germany Richard Steiff had designedthe first jointed Teddy Bear. It was the world’s first stuffed toywith moveable arms and legs. The bears first made their ap-pearance at the Leipzig Toy Trade Fair in 1903 where theycaught the eye of an American trader. He purchased all thatwere there at the fair and ordered another 3,000 bears to besent to the United States. The bears began to sell immediatelythanks in part to the name “Teddy” bear. To distinguish theirbears from imposters the Steiff Company patented the “but-ton in ear” trademark in 1904.
Early Steiff bears were made to look like real bears but even-tually over time they began to take on more of a cartoon likeappearance, with bigger eyes and smaller noses. These bearsare quite popular with collectors of today and old bears from1910 can bring in significant amounts at auction.
This Sunday July 24 is our annual Teddy Bear Picnic at themuseum, please join us from 1-4 pm. There are activities forall including face painting, games, crafts and even a magicshow!
So pack your picnic, a blanket and your Teddy Bear and headover the St. Joseph Island Museum for the afternoon. Admis-sion is by donation or free with a teddy bear or fancy hat.

Highway Repairs Causing Damage to Vehicles
I am writing to ask if it is possible for the Clippings to do asurvey on how many flat tires people have had since thestarting of the re-surfacing of the highway on the Island. Sofar in between Hamilton Bay Road and the U Line, we havehad 5 flats and one cracked windshield.
This is because of the stones/gravel that they are using. All 5tires were caused by sharp stones and the windshield, we sawthat one coming, literally! We were following the new postedspeed limit to minimize the damage from the rocks to the ve-hicles. So much for that idea!
I know that they are trying to keep up with a better highway,but it is costing money to get these tires replaced and orfixed. I know that we are not the only one, but how manymore?
Thank youYves Gauthier
Publisher’s Note: We’re sure that everyone agrees that thesehighway repairs are long overdue, but Mr. Gauthier is notalone. We too have suffered tire damage from these stones. We can all, as drivers, do our part to help minimize the dangerssimply by slowing down to a sensible speed on loose gravel - especially when approaching other vehicles.
