Teachers were busy meeting with parents in every classroom. The Heme and School ladies served coffee, tea and cookies in the gym. In each hall there was a couple of grade 7’s showing different items they're selling to raise money for their trip to Ottawa and Quebec. In the gym there was also the display of T-shirts, etc. that were going to be on sale on Oct. 9. The open house was for parents and teachers to talk about their child and how he/she is doing and for them to explain school programmes for the school year. The work from the Brussels Fall Fair was also on display through- outtheschool. Everyone, I’m sure, enjoyed the open house. BREAD MAKING IN THE CLASS by N. Beirnes and C. Knorr This year grade 5 made bread. Mrs. Crawford (our teacher) set a table at the front of the classroom. The bread ingredients were: crisco oil, scalded milk, sugar, shortening, yeast, warm water, salt and flour. The students had tobe very quiet while it was rising. At 3 p.m. we could eat it. Mrs. Colquhoun buttered it while Mrs. Crawford cut it. After a day of adding, punching, baking and coddling the bread itwasbaked. Diditever taste delicious. CLOTHING SALE AT GREY by D. Uhler and M.

Lambeth chipped away at that lead scoring at 10:10 and 5:24 t< end the game at 6-5 in Brussels’ favour. Saturday night had the team travelling to Exeter to play the Hawks in a low scoring contest. The teams had played 14 minutes ofthe first period when Tim Fritz scored from Mike Vincent and Kevin Me Arter to give the Bulls a 1-0 lead. They had played just 30 seconds of the second period when Kevin Lee scored from Mike Vincent to take a 2-0 lead. Exeter scored their first goal just three minutes later and then again at 8:42 to tie the score and end the period at 2-2. The two teams battled until the mid-way point, when Kevin Lee blastedashotfromthe blue line that got through a maize of legs past the goalie to score what proved to be the winning goal. Tim Fritz assisted on the play. The remainder of the period was scoreless giving the Bulls the 3-2 victory. If these three one goal victories are any indication of games to come, we should be in for an excellent winter of good hockey action. Thamesford will be in town for a 8 p.m. start on Tuesday night with Brussels returning to Thamesford on Friday night for an 8:30 p.ms start. The Exeter Hawks will be in town on Sunday afternoon for a 2 p.m. game. Come out and cheer them on Amy McCrea resigns from committee After 17 years serving as secretary-treasurer for recreation in Blyth including the Memorial Hall Board and Community Centre Board, Amy McCrea will step down, Blyth village council was told at its October 13 meeting. Councillor Bill Howson said the resignation, effective December 31, had been accepted October 12 at a meeting of the community centre board. Councillors on the Memorial Hall Board said they had had an indication the resignation was in the works at their meeting. With the resignation the board must now look at what course to take in replacing the long-time worker who became secretary­ treasurer in 1970. Councillor How- son reported it was the recommen­ dation from the community centre board meeting that the finances should be handled through the town office. The possibility of having a secretary position as separate from the treasurer’s position was dis­ cussed. The secretary could go to the meetings to take minutes and could prepare bills for passing which could then be paid by village clerk-treasurer Helen Grubb. This would mean Mrs. Grubb wouldn’t have to attend all the night meetings necessary as part of the secretary-treasurer’s job. No firm decision has yet been taken on what course to follow. An old flame can break your heart. 44 Ontario St. Presents 1 We carry the largest selection of costumes, accessories, make-up and decorations in Perth County. Stratford 271-3240
