its women teachers
The Huron Women Teachers
Association recently held its annual
Fall Banquet at the Brussels
Community Centre.
Flo Dyck, president of the Huron
WTA emphasized the importance
of advocating the contributions of
Canadian women in history during
Women’s History month. She also
announced the publication of
“Connections” - a collection of
“her” stories celebrating local
women whose efforts have made an
impact on the Huron County
community. Each WTA in the
province will be publishing their
own version of “Connections” to
celebrate the 75th Anniversary of
the Federation of Women
Teachers’ Associations of Ontario.
FWTAO represents 40,000 women
teachers across the province and is
one of the strongest advocates of
women's and children's rights in the
country.
This fall, 13 teachers from Huron
County were presented with gold
pins from the Federation in honour
of 25 years of service to the teach
ing profession.
In the local area, Betty Battye
and Patricia Hulley of Blyth Public
School, and Barb Bosman of
Hullett Central Public School were
honoured with their 25 year pins.
Congratulations to each of these
women on their outstanding efforts
over the years.

County fights for highways
Huron County will continue to
fight to keep the provincialhigh-
way designations for Highways 83,
84 and 87, county council was told
at its meeting in Goderich Thurs
day.
Huron County Engineer Denis
Merrall reported on his meeting
with John Godin of the Ministry of
Transportation's (MTO) Stratford
office over the provinces request
the county take over the roads. Mr.
Merrall said Huron had offered to
take over maintenance of Highways
83 and 84, charging the costs back
to the province but still keeping the
"provincial" designation on he
highway. The county's road com
mittee, he said, is aware there are
economic development implica
tions to a highway being "down
graded" from a provincial to a
county road, even though the quali
ty of the road might improve.
Bill Mickle, reeve of Exeter
agreed, saying some companies
that might look at locating in an
area are more comfortable with a
road that's a provincial highway
than a county highway.
Discussions will take place Nov.
11 between county and MTO offi
cials. MTO hasn't been welcoming
of the county's proposals but
"We're trying to put forth the best
alternatives possible," Mr. Merrall
said.

Letters
THE EDITOR,
I am prompted to write this letter
in response to an article in the
Brussels council briefs Nov. 4 issue
of The Citizen.
the article is in regard to
complaints received from the
public about cyclists on the
sidewalks.
I am a victim of a bicycle
accident on Turnberry St. (main
street) Brussels. I stepped out of a
business doorway and a child on a
bicycle ran into me. I am not a
senior citizen (who are more frail),
however this accident caused me to
lose three months employment. I
was unable to walk as a result as
damage was done to the ligaments
of my left foot. I received extensive
treatment because of this accident,
which occurred in July. To date, I
have not fully recovered.
This matter should be brought to
the attention of all cyclists and their
parents. If each parent would
discuss this problem with their
children another such accident
might be avoided.
I am not the only person who has
been in collision with a bicycle,
however, to date I am the only
person who has been unable to
resume my daily routine for a long
period of time.
Children should be fully
educated on the safe operation of a
bicycle on the sidewalks. If this
cannot be done, then some other
avenue should be looked into so
that the sidewalks are safe for
pedestrians.
Barbara Graber.
Don’t let your child
go to sleep
in the dark.
Read together tonight.
