The Bala Cynwyd Librarywill present a Power Point
tour of Bala Cynwyd circa1915, the year the library wasfounded, on Monday eve ning,November 23. Jerry Francis,President of the Lower Mer -ion Historical Society will showsome 77 vintage photographsdrawn from the Society’scollection showing the streetscenes, buildings, stores, cele -brations and the open land-scape as they appeared acentury ago in the communi-ty we now know and occupy. Bala Cynwyd was primarilyan agricultural communitythen, Francis says, though abuilding boom was soon totransform the area. Freightof all kinds was transportedby rail; the Cynwyd stationwas a hub near a freight yardnow occupied by the BMWdealership. Those who own -ed cars often put them instorage for the winter, as thecompacted gravel roads were -n’t plowed and permanent anti -freeze was yet to be devel-oped. Social gatherings andevents were centered around church parishes. People walked much more, and bought groceries and other daily items onBala Avenue and other commercial streets. Women stayed home much more than they do today. The Belmont Driving Parkon Meetinghouse Lane in Merion, with 250 horse stalls, drew large numbers of racing fans and separated them into sections
for the rich and the poor. Jockeys stayed at a hotel called theWisconsin House, now the site now of the Bala Cynwyd PostOffice; it doubled as a notorious brothel.Francis, who is a life-long resident of Bala Cynwyd, knowsa great deal about the community, but he describes the libraryevent as more of an interactive conversation than a lecture.
Naturally, he’ll answer questions and share observationsthroughout the presentation. He has been President of theHistorical Society since 1999.On November 30, another member of the Lower MerionHistorical Society, Leon Levine, will present an overview ofhow railroads shaped the development of Lower Merion Town -ship.The visual tour of Bala Cynwyd will be presented on Mon -
day, November 23 at 7:30 p.m. at the library, 131 Old Lancaster Road. Admission is free. For information, call 610-664-1196.

all 50 states and in 21 foreign countries. Twelve of his works have been translated into for-eign languages, and another five have been anthologized. The story is based on the semi-autobiographical writings of Jean Shepherd and the popular 1983 holiday film, which Shepherdnarrated and co-scripted.The show features an original score by dynamite award-winning composer/lyricist team
Benj Pasek and Justin Paul. Pasek is local to the area, having grown up in Ardmore, PA, andis thrilled to see this show make its Philadelphia premiere, noting “Growing up, I attendedmany wonderful musicals at Walnut Street Theatre that helped nurture my love of the artform. I can’t believe that now, one of my own shows will be presented there. It’s a real fullcircle moment for me, and I look forward sharing it with my Philadelphia family and friends.”Pasek and Paul are also the composers of the off-Broadway musical Dogfight, which was
awarded the Lucille Lortel Outstanding Musical Award, as well as Edges, James and the GiantPeach, Duck for President and If You Give a Pig a Pancake.

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.

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,

knowledge and your curiosity to the worlds be -

resources and support—for FREE! That is a beautiful thing.”

Each building, while an exactreplica of the original, is unique in its design.Philadelphia-area landmarks such as a mas -ter piece replica of Independence Hall aremade using pinecone seeds for shingles,acorns as finials and twigs as downspouts.The buildings are all meticulously deco-
rated for the holidays with lights that twin-kle along the tracks and around the sur-rounding landscape. The Garden Railway Dis -

orated with lights representing donations made in honor of,or in memory of, a loved one, friend or colleague; to expressappreciation for something special; or to commemorate anoccasion such as the birth of a child. There also are sever-al decorated trees related to this tradition in the medicalcenter lobbies. Donors’ names and the names of those theyare honoring are listed in a Memorial Book. Proceeds are usedto enhance patient care programs at the medical center.The Women’s Board hosts an Annual Reception and Tree

Peace on Earth. It’s such a central message to the holidayseason, and something we hope for year round. But wars
don’t stop for Christmas and every year, from Revolut ion -ary times on, brave men and women have spent the holidaysaway from their homes and families in order to ensure peacefor the rest of us. Soldiers not actively engaged in fightingon Christmas day strive to celebrate the holiday in ways thatremind them of home. In fact, many beloved Christmas tra-ditions came out of wartime celebrations and Christmas be -came a federal holiday in 1870, five years after the end of theCivil War, in an attempt by President Grant to reconcile thestill divided north and south. Prior to the Revolutionary War,Christmas in America was a quiet, religious occasion and notcelebrated with a lot of outward festivities and fanfare. Manyhistorians credit the Hessian soldiers from Germany, whofought in America alongside the British, with introducingChristmas trees to the United States. Decorated trees werejust starting to become popular when the Civil War brokeout, and at least one account records Civil War soldiers asdecorating their tree with “hard tack and pork” – materialsthey had on hand, just as they would have used popcorn,dried fruit, pinecones, and homemade paper decorations tocelebrate at home. Later generations of soldiers did their bestto maintain established traditions, with visits from Santa, wrap -ped gifts arriving from loved ones, singing carols – many of whichoriginated during the years leading up to the Civil War – anddecorations made from foil, tin cans, and anything else theycould fashion from salvaged materials and creativity.On Saturday, November 28 the grounds and first floor of
the Keith House at Graeme Park will be open for free toursfrom 11 a.m. - 4 p.m. with soldiers representing differentwars encamped on the property demonstrating how Christ -mas was celebrated on the battlefront during different erasthroughout our history. The Revolutionary War, Civil War,World Wars I and II will be represented along with modern-era wars. Santa Claus will be on hand from 12 noon - 3 p.m.
and musical entertainment will be provided by a choral groupfrom the Hatboro-Horsham High School at 1 p.m. and fromSt. Catherine of Siena at 2:30 p.m. Crafts, gift items, ornamentsand refreshments will be available for purchase in the Visi -tors’ Center. The non-profit will also be collecting items atthis event to send to active-duty military serving overseasduring the holiday season. Items needed, include:• Flip flops, men’s and women’s white socks.• Unscented soap, wipes, deodorant, shampoo, hand sanitiz-
er, foot powder, Chapstick/Blistex, moisturizer (please note,all products should be unscented).• Saline eyewash, individual tissue packets, individual wrap -

Dr. Kenneth Drobatz, Chief of the Emergency Service at Penn Vet’s Ryan Hospital, offers thefollowing tips to keep pets healthy and out of the emergency room this Thanksgiving:
Festive FoodsMaintain your pet’s regular diet. Treats of turkey, ham, gravy, cookies, and other goodies
can lead to gastrointestinal upsets like diarrhea and vomiting.Dispose of all bones carefully so that pets cannot get to them. Poultry bones are particu-
larly dangerous, as they can splinter and cut the intestines or get lodged in your pet’s esoph-agus.Guilty pleasures for humans, like chocolate and alcohol, can be toxic to pets. Keep choco -
late, nuts, and alcoholic beverages out-of-reach from your pets, as they can cause vomit-ing, diarrhea, or a condition called pancreatitis, which can be deadly. Grapes and raisinscan be toxic to pets, as well.Be sure that everyone in your family knows and understands what your pets can and can-
not consume.In Case of Emergency
As with any potential emergency, immediate attention from a veterinarian is imperative.Penn Vet’s Emergency Service is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year.Penn Vet’s Ryan Hospital is the only institution in the country recognized as both a Level
I Facility and a designated Veterinary Trauma Center.The Emergency Service is staffed by an integrated team of board-certified specialists who
attend to each patient’s emergency and critical care needs. Call 215-746-8911 or visit RyanHospital at 3900 Spruce Street.

but will they survive the Death Star bureaucracy? This is just a sampling of this year’smaterial!The “This Is The Week That Is” ensemble welcomes returning writer/performers Aimé
Donna Kelly, Dave Jadico, Jennifer Childs, and Alex Bechtel, as well as new cast members,Justin Jain and Sean Close, who are making their 1812 Productions debuts after years spentperforming on Philadelphia stages. Jain is a Barrymore Award-nominated co-founder ofPhiladelphia’s absurdist comedy group, The Berserker Residents. Close, who will helm the“This Is The Week That Is” news desk, comes to us from a young career of classic theatreat Quintessence Theatre, Delaware Shakespeare Festival, and Arden Theatre, among others.Don Montrey returns for his tenth year as head news writer, creating an ever-changingscript to keep “This Is The Week That Is” up with the headlines. In addition to writing andperforming, Alex Bechtel returns as musical director, composing new material and arrang-ing the show’s signature parody numbers. Looking back on 10 years of This Is The Week That Is, the show’s creator and director,
Jennifer Childs, says, “When we started doing This Is The Week, George W. Bush was pres-ident, Obama was a relative unknown and bird flu was the epidemic du jour. I had no ideahow the world would change or that we’d still be doing this show ten years later. Workingon This Is The Week and attempting to find the funny in sometimes desperately unfunnysituations has been a great joy—it is the most fun I have all year. It has also been a really inter-esting way of being aware of the world and the passage of time. Ten years later, the eventsof the day are no less tricky to make into satire but the process of making this show has be -come my way of making sense of them. It’s also gratifying to see that the show continuesto resound with audiences as we welcome more and more This Is The Week followers everyseason. It’s a blast!” “This Is The Week That Is” will run from November 27 through December 31 at Plays &
Players Theatre, 1714 Delancey Street. Opening Night will be Wednesday, December 2 at 7p.m. Tickets range from $28-$42 and can be purchased at 215-592-9560 or at www.1812pro-ductions.org.

The Freethought Society (FS) is co-sponsoring a very special event with the EthicalHumanist Society of Philadelphia (EHSP) and the Delaware Valley Chapter of Americans
United for Separation of Church and State to mark the 10th anniversary of the “IntelligentDesign” court case of Tammy Kitzmiller, et al. v. Dover Area School District, et al. (400 F. Supp.2d 707, Docket No. 4cv2688).This court case was the first direct challenge brought in the United States federal courts
testing a public school district policy that required the teaching of intelligent design, aka,creationism. The Dover Area School District of York County, Pennsylvania changed its biol-ogy teaching curriculum to require that intelligent design be presented as an alternative toevolution theory. The plaintiffs successfully argued that intelligent design is a form of cre-ationism and that the school board policy violated the Establishment Clause of the FirstAmendment to the United States Constitution. Judge John E. Jones III, a Republican ap -pointed in 2002 by George W. Bush, ruled on December 20, 2005 that the Dover mandaterequiring the statement to be read in class was unconstitutional. In his 139-page findingsof fact, Judge Jones stated that teaching intelligent design in public school biology classesviolates the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment to the Constitution of the UnitedStates (and Article I, Section 3, of the Pennsylvania State Constitution) because intelligentdesign is not science and “cannot uncouple itself from its creationist, and thus religious,antecedents.”The Sunday, December 6, 2015 event starts with a free and open-to-the-public 11 a.m.,
EHSP morning platform featuring Hugh Taft-Morales (EHSP Leader). This event will take placeat the EHSP building located at 1906 South Rittenhouse Square, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania19103.The 2015 EHSP/FS “Tree of Knowledge” will be decorated after the platform speech and
everyone is invited to participate. There will be music, singing, and books to purchase fromauthors.The official 10th Anniversary program starts with a luncheon service at 1 p.m. The $30
program fee includes lunch, afternoon speakers, a cash bar ($5 wine and champagne) andHappy Hour Closing Ceremony (includes finger foods, music, a celebration cake and photoopportunities). For only $15, you can enjoy just the afternoon speakers and the happy hour.That portion of the event starts at 2:30 p.m. and runs through 5:30 p.m. Reservations are required.
