Murray A committee of adjustment ses- sion was held during the Oct. 15 meeting of Morris council, to dis- cuss a minor variance for part of the North Part Lot 19, Conc. 7, applied for by Carman Bernard. The variance was required to allow the construction of a resi- dence with less than the required separation distance from a neigh- bouring barn. Neighbouring landowner Dianne Duskocy, wife of Councillor John Duskocy, who had declared a pecu- niary interest and stepped away from the council table, said there were no objections to the building so long as it did not affect the Duskocys' right to farm South Part Lot 19, Conc. 6. She also wanted the non-complying section of the zoning bylaw to be recognized for the use of the barn. Knowing the Duskocys house animals, Bernard said he had no objections to give Duskocy the right to farm. Council discussed expansion of animal units on the Duskocy farm, saying it could only be done through a minor variance or rezon- ing. Additional animal units would be allowed without rezoning or a minor variance if the facility was moved back to allow the required separation. Bemards have received approval from the Huron County Health Unit, for a septic system. Council had no further comment, at the time.

Ruth Schefter and the Ministry of Trans- portation. The Huron-Perth County Roman Catholic Separate School Board completed some restructuring at the Oct. 28 meeting.

The choir sang the Ron Klus- meier song Dust and Ashes Touch Our Face. Rev. Murray called the young worshippers to the front and talked to them about the psalms in his worship as well. He went on to say that the psalms are a record of people talking to God. They can be used as prayers or songs. It is a way of talking to God. His sermon was called, "Choosing to Remember".
