The benefits of music
Knox United Church in Belgrave played host to a special afternoon of music on Saturday,
thanks to the band Just Fun from the Brussels area. The event was both a benefit for
Operation Smile, a group that mobilizes a volunteer network to help repair childhood facial
deformities across the globe, and a special surprise 80th birthday for Ivan Dow, a member of
the church's congregation. Performing are, from left: Don Chesher, Dale Chesher and John

Farm safety week
tips for child safety
Continued from page 15
they're following safety protocols
and being careful, or the message
will ring hollow to children and they
will not see it as important.
Take the following precautions to
ensure that your farm is safe for
children:
• Inspect your farm with your
children for any areas that contain
hazards. Make sure to not only
identify the hazards, but also to
explain why they're dangerous to the
children and, if possible, take steps
to mitigate the danger.
• Before setting children to work
on age-appropriate tasks, check
local laws to ensure that they are of
legal age to operate farm machinery.
• Train older children before
setting them to work on anything.
Ensure they understand the proper
operation of machinery they're
being asked to use, and that they
know what to do at all times.
• Never allow extra riders on any
equipment. Extra rider runovers are
a very common cause of injury.
• Drownings on the farm occur,
especially among children six years
old or less. Fence farm ponds,
manure pits, and any other source of
water that could pose a drowning
risk.
• Designate a specific fenced -off
area that is solely for playing.
Ensure that it is kept far from
animals, as even calm and normally
docile animals can become
dangerous if they feel that either
they or their offspring are
threatened.
• Keep all farm chemicals out of
the reach of children and locked
away in a cabinet, room or building.
• Keep grain bins off-limits for
children — it takes only a few
seconds for a person to become
helplessly trapped under flowing
grain, where they could suffocate.
H -B Liberal group
welcomes MP Young
The road to re-election in 2019 for
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's
Liberal party has to pass through
rural ridings like Huron -Bruce,
London West MP Kate Young says.
"Our path to a second victory, to
another mandate, is through rural
Canada," Young told members of the
Huron -Bruce Federal Liberal
Association at their annual general
meeting, held March 5 at the
Wingham Legion.
"We're well on our way to gaining
back some of these rural ridings,
but we can't stop listening," Young
said.
Young said she was encouraged to
see that former Huron -Bruce
candidate Allan Thompson has been
appointed to head ProjectRURAL, a
Liberal Party of Canada (Ontario)
task force to explore how the party
can better connect in rural ridings
like Huron -Bruce. And she said that
it is clear at the highest levels in the
federal Liberal party how important
it is to represent the concerns of
Canadians who live in a rural
setting.
Riding Association President
Virginia Schenk told members they
should be proud of what the party
accomplished in Huron -Bruce in the
recent election, taking the Liberals
from a distant third-place finish in
2011 to more than 23,000 votes on
Oct. 19. And she saluted the Liberal
candidate in Huron -Bruce, Allan
Thompson, commending his energy
and determination during the
election campaign.
The annual general meeting, the
first since the 2015 election, elected
a new executive for the riding
association. The new executive for
the Huron -Bruce Federal Liberal
Association includes: President,
Virginia Schenk; First Executive VP,
Duncan Jewell; Second Executive
VP, Erica Murray; Treasurer, Peter
Morris; Secretary, Kelly Collier;
Membership chair, Kevin Wilbee;
Policy chair, Maarten Bokhout;
Communica-tions chair, Allan
Thompson; Election Readiness
chair, Murray Elston; Fundraising
chair, Gloria Wilbee; Youth chair,
Sean Mitchell and Outreach chair,
Ann MacKay. Directors -at -large:
