As the residents of the Callander
Nursing Home, Brussels, we think
it’s time we spoke out.
We are concerned about the
future of our Nursing Home. It’s
our ‘Home’ and we are happy here.
The nurses are kind to us and they
are our friends. Some of us haven’t
many left. Some of us are fortunate
enough to have our relatives close
by and for that we are thankful.
Our meals are very good, pre
pared by good cooks, and the
menus are revised so that we have

has been authorized to forward a
letter to the Ministry of Labour in
response to A Bill which will
provide legislation to establish a
new Workplace Health and Safety
Agency. This proposed agency will
be funded by employers through an
increased assessment by the Work
men’s Compensation Board.
Building permits were issued to
Levi. D. Stutzman for a shed,
fresh food in season.
The Nursing Home is bright and
cheerful - kept very clean by our
diligent cleaning staff.
Many local groups provide us
with entertainment on a regular
basis. There is a birthday party
every month, so none of us are
forgotten. This has been put on by
different organizations, and has
been going on for many years.
We have faithful volunteers who
come in on a regular basis to
entertain us or just chat awhile.
We appreciate the people of
Brussels who are acting on the
toward this and other prevention
projects, including a library re
source bank which will make videos
and children’s books on street
proofing available to parents and
professionals in Huron County.
The Community Child Abuse
Co-ordinating Committee is com
mitted to developing a community
response to child abuse. The
participation of the people of Blyth
and area in this fundraising event
is a step toward that goal. Thank
you to everyone who donated raffle
and auction items and to those of
you who came to dinner, had fun,
and raised money toward the
prevention of child abuse.
