Kids learn about rabies
RABIES-A MENACE IN
HURONCOUNTY
Jack MacKinnon from the Hur
on County Health Unit came to visit
Brussels School to talk about
Rabies. He presented a very
impressing show with a videotape
called “No Way For a Friend to
Die’’ showing real rabid animals
and real situations involving peo
ple.
Mr. MacKinnon told us what to
look for if you suspect a rabid
animal, and told us that all pets
have to have a rabies vaccination as
of March, 1987.
He told us what happens to
animals as well as humans when
they are bitten by an animal with
Rabies. I know that many kids
came out of the gymnasium
knowing much more about the
deadly virus, rabies.

4-H club
visits garage
BY JANICE HEISE
The Bluevale III Bachelorettes
are very grateful to Tolton’s
Garage in Bluevale. As a special
treat their club visited the garage
on Mon., March 30.
As they stepped over the
threshhold into the warmth of the
building, a glimpse of a shiny, new
carraiseda number of exclama
tions from the members. Yes, it
was the patient which was to bear
poking, probing fingers, a tire
change, and its lights and other
gadgets flicked on and off several
times.
Twocheerymenthen showed
the “eager eight” the labyrinth
structure of a basic car motor. They
also showed member where and
how to check such things as the
motor oil, windshield fluid, and of
course, how to change a tire.
Each member received a pen
and keychain. On behalf of the
club, I would like to take this
opportunity to once again thank the
men for taking the time to show the
basic necessities of car mainten
ance.

A MUSICAL EXPERIENCE
On March 23 the Grades 6, 7 and
8 classes went to the K-W
Symphony. They left at 11:45 and
arrived at 1:35, a little late because
of engine trouble. They missed two
performances, one because they
were late and the other because a
violinist was storm-stayed in ano
ther city.
Among the pieces they enjoyed
were The Pink Panther, Super
man, Overture: The Marriage of
Figaro, Overture: Candide, Little
G Minor Fugue, and The Mira-
michi Ballad.
They were there for about 40
minutes and then had to go home.
They arrived at the school at about
4 p.m.
Here are some remarks from
some people who went: Brian
McArter - “It was all right”; Todd
Rice: “wasn’tthatbad”; Margaret
Jarvis, “It was all right except for
the long ride”; Patty: “It was
good, but short”; Kenny Graber:
“It was good”; Heather McDon
ald: “It was an exciting experience
for me to see the symphony”;
TammyRose: “It was all right”
and Robyn Somers: “1 really
enjoyed it!”
