Don’t ask too much
When youngsters begin helping
with farm work, proper training is
essential. Adults should keep in
mind a child’s limited strength and
experience. Remember, most
won’t admit that they “don’t
know” or are “not strong
enough.”
It is especially easy to assume
that the safe way of doing some
thing is obvious. Instead, it is only
because of the farmer’s wealth of
experience that it seems obvious.
For the youngster, everything
about safety has to be explained,
and then explained again.

Morris Council accepted the
tender of S & K Sales & Service in
Listowel for a 1990 International
snow plow truck cab and chassis for
$55,683.15 at its meeting on May
22. Delivery date is set for August
27, providing Bridgestone Tires
have been placed on the truck and
the warranty is acceptable.
Liz Stryker and Joyce Ducharme
attended the meeting to discuss the
organization “Kids And Us”. Fol
lowing their presentation Council
voted to donate $50 to the group.
The money will be sent in June.
Council was advised that Ken
Shortreed, the tile drain inspector
for Morris, has been spending
more time on inspections than had
been originally anticipated. Thus,
he asks that Council keep this in
mind at wage review.
Drainage petitions were accept
ed for: Lamont Drain, North half
Lot 12, Cone. 3; Ken Johnston,
North half Lot 26, Cone. 2, Breck
enridge Drain; Turvey Drain, South
half Lot 19, Cone. 2; Barnard Drain
North half Lot 31, Cone. 1. As these
were only minor repairs the work
has been completed.
Concerning the stakes along the
area of the Smith Drain that
Council had been inquiring about,
they were to mark fencing and had
been placed there by the owner of
the property, Council was inform
ed.
The Ministry of Energy approved
the audit and is allowing the grant
application for door closures for the
works garage..
A motion was made to apply for
the 75 per cent retrofit grant. No
date has been set for the renovation
but the application must be sub
mitted for funding approval.
Several complaints have been
made regarding the repair work to
the Queen’s Hotel in Belgrave. A
resolution passed that Morris
would pick up debris and brick
from the lot next to the hotel and
store it at the Waste Disposal Site.
A registered letter will be sent to
the hotel owners informing them of
the removal. Building Official Leo
Sanders is to check with the fire
chief and Clerk Nancy Michie is
contacting the Health Unit concern
ing the future of the building. The
owner is to be advised that he has
until June 15 to take action.
Council reviewed the folder from
the Huron County Board of Educa
tion, explaining its education taxes
and decided not to include it with
the taxes. However, copies will be
available at the office.
Council passed a by-law approv
ing the grant for the Belgrave
PRIDE project.
The application for a minor
variance to Lot 26, Cone. 8, owned
by James and Evelyn Blake was
approved. Barbara and Alex Mac
Dougall, who plan to buy the
property were in attendance. The
variance is to allow the lot frontage
to be reduced from 75 feet to 40
feet. As the application conforms to
the zoning by-law, and the official
plan, represents proper planning
and the frontage is for access
purposes, Council decided in
favour.
