is always there. He helps with Texas Hold ’Em poker. He has sold raffle tickets at the Monarchs and Fisher Cats games in Manchester, and attends every event that the Caregivers sponsor. His shining moment each fall is his work with
the Walk-a-Thon. He is responsible for raising over a thousand dollars every year with his efforts, asking for pledges from his Atkinson neighbors and his fellow parishioners at Mary, Queen of Peace Parish. In soliciting the pledges, he insists on honoring his commitment by walking as much of the route as he can, despite some physical difficulties and even bad weather. In addition to his work with the Caregivers,
D’Auteuil also takes Communion to the patients at the Northeast Rehab Hospital each week. The Greater Salem Caregivers is honored to have a man of Ray’s caliber and commitment to the community be a part of the mission of the Caregivers, and on behalf of our many clients, we thank and appreciate all that he does.
Horse Liniment Erases Pain

A birthday party celebrating cancer survivors took place at the Field of Dreams in Salem this past weekend. It was a party full of laughter and joy—a time to realize that cancer isn’t the “doom” that so many people originally have thought. It was a time to think back, a time to listen to others, and time to look at all the good things that are left to accomplish. The band Already Taken played all afternoon to a crowded Field of Dreams while listeners relaxed on the lawn and ate cake and other munchies. It was a real positive time for all! Just a note: for anyone needing help at the relay taking place soon, there will be wheelchairs and help available. Come and support others, and just have a good time!

ten used to treat inflammation in race horse legs, is now back on the market in its original doctor recommended clinical strength formula. According to a national drug store
HIALEAH, FL — An ingredient of-
This year’s Relay
survey, the formula at one time became so popular that it rose to the top of phar- macy sales for topical pain relievers. But the company marketing the prod- uct at the time changed the formula and sales plummeted. One of the inventors of the original formula has brought it back to the market under the trade name ARTH ARREST and says it can relieve pain for millions. ARTH ARREST works by a dual
mechanism whereby one ingredient re- lieves pain immediately, while a sec- ond ingredient seeks out and destroys the pain messenger signal before it can be sent to the brain. Considered a medi- cal miracle by some, the ARTH AR- REST formula is useful in the treat- ment of painful disorders ranging from minor aches and pains to more serious conditions such as arthritis, bursitis, rheumatism, tendonitis, backache and more. ARTH ARREST is available in a con- venient roll-on applicator at pharma- cies without a prescription or call 1- 800-339-3301. Now at:

This is a very exciting time of year for the Barron fourth graders. The school held its annual Open House, where students had a chance to display maps, stories, book projects, cooperative group science research booklets and posters, art, and so much more. The work doesn’t end there. Students have been busy testing rock samples, creating complete circuits, writing poems, converting decimals, reducing fractions, and reading up a storm to earn red hats. Believe it or not, students also found time to create an assembly line to bag popcorn for a sale they ran to benefit Salem’s Historical Society. After purchasing all the necessary supplies, students will be donating $140 that will help renovate the train station. A big thank-you goes to T-BONES for donating some of the popcorn. But that’s not all. Many fourth-grade students have been collecting gently used books that they sold on May 20. All profits will go to the Barron School Literacy Fund. Students will be able to purchase books that day at a bargain price, and will also benefit in future books that the sale will enable the school to purchase. Soon, all fourth-grade students will be going on a field trip to Concord. Students will visit the New Hampshire History Museum, where they will see and learn about the world-famous Concord Coach, dugout canoes, other artifacts, and the life of people years ago in New Hampshire. Then, students will visit the state capital. There they will be able to sit in the seats that our state’s representatives occupy when they make important decisions for our people. Students have their fingers crossed in hopes the governor will be there again this year so they can meet him. That’s still not all. On June 1, students are going on a guided tour of Salem’s first town

library, School House No. 5, and the town museum. Gracious guides from the Salem Historical Society will once again donate their time to show us around as they explain what life was like in our town many years ago. Exciting! The fourth-grade teachers are pleased to report the effort that students put in the recent Science NECAP tests. Students worked diligently for two days to demonstrate what they have learned. Many are anxious to get the results. Everyone is so proud of their hard work!
