Brussels People By Bonnie Gropp Phone 887-9114 or 523-4792 Staff from the Callander Nursing Home gathered at the home of Mrs. Edna Pearson to honour Jean Workman with a surprise retire­ ment party. A social time was held with the girls bringing trays of goodies and a retirement cake nicely decorated by Karen Griffith. Mary Stretton presented Jean with a collector’s plate on behalf of everyone. Jean graciously thanked everyone. The people at Callander will miss Jean but are looking forward to her visits.

Sheila Richards has returned home after visiting her sister Joan Fitzpatrick in Montreal and her aunt Eileen Kerr in Murray Bay. She reports that the scenery of the lower St. Lawrence is as magnifi­ cent as ever. Correction In a court report from the Sept. 6 issue of The Citizen it was stated that Eric Robinson and Denise Wlonzek had had a common-law relationship before he entered her home and did willful damage. The couple were never involved in a common-law relationship. The Citi­ zen apologizes for any inconven­ ience caused by this error. Couple finds balloon from Mich, wedding On Saturday evening, Sept. 9, while taking a head count on the cattle at the family grass farm on the west side of Brussels, Mel and Lois McArter found a white balloon with streamers and a note attach­ ed. It read: “To help us celebrate our joyous wedding day 9-9-89 please call if found. Signed Mark and Kelly Bachi.” The McArters placed the call upon returning home and left their names and phone number with an answering service. The balloon’s senders returned the McArters’ call on Monday evening during the supper hour. We were informed the young couple had been married the afternoon of Sept. 9 at four o’clock and released 100 balloons from the church at 5 p.m. as they left. As of that night, the McArters were the only ones that had replied to their balloon release. The bal­ loons were released at Clarkston, Michigan, just north of Pontiac. The balloon had had a speedy trip over the border as the McAr­ ters found it in the pasture field about 7:30 p.m. and it had been there ahead of that as it was snagged in the grass. 12%•NO FEES • ALL INVESTMENTS GUARANTEED 4 INSURED •FUNDS TRANSFERABLE VIA CHARTER BANK Sale prices end Sept 30,1989 Multifunction telephone answering machine B) Remote-control allows you fo operate the machine from any tone-dialing phone.
