PAGE 19. Women get a laugh during Day Out E ntertainment A full house for cribbage From as far north as Chesterville and Sault Ste. Marie and as far south as Windsor, almost 200 cribbage players descended on the Brussels Legion Saturday for the provincial championship. Morris Wo. to apply for $526,660 from special circumstances fund 'Live, laugh and love!' This is the theme for the fourth annual Women's Day Out, sponsored by the Blyth United Church Women to be held on Saturday, April 4 from 9:15 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. in the Blyth Memorial Hall and Bainton Art Gallery. All women today need a chance to pamper themselves, to have someone entertain them and to learn a new skill. In an effort to achieve this, the Women's Day Out committee has put together a day filled with living, and laughing that women are going to love! The morning presentations will begin with a motivational talk by Giscle Ireland, the well-known author of Bumps In Your Coveralls. There will also be an interior design demonstration and entertain- ment from the Line Dancing Clowns. The day will also bring facial, massage, manicure, foot care, clothing and line dancing demonstrations to take care of your body. Floral, needlecraft, stamping and photo album arrangement demonstrations will be available to take care of a woman's creative side. There will also be a Tupperware booth available for ordering merchandise. Back by popular demand is the smorgasbord luncheon which seems to receive rave reviews each year. The tasty treats are sure to tempt your tummy! In the afternoon there will be a Fashion Show featuring Bainton's Old Mill, Dressing Room Only, The Old Mill (all of Blyth), Lauretta's Hug and 1/2 of Wingham, The Kids Shop of Lucknow and new this year, Schaefer's Ladies' Wear of Goderich. Fashions suitable for every size and age will be featured as well as a variety of children's clothing. The musical talents of local singer and songwriter, Kim Souch, will also be featured. Throughout the day there will be opportunities to visit the new improved Ladies' Lucky Loonie Sale in the dining hall featuring an array of interesting items. Everyone who attends will also have a chance to take home one of the many door prizes. As well, the Blyth Festival box office will be open until 1 p.m. to sell theatre tickets and share information concerning upcoming plays for the 1998 summer season. Advance tickets for Women's Day Out are on sale now at the following outlets: in Blyth, Stitches by M.J., Luann's Country Flowers; in Wingham, Lauretta's Hug and 1/2; in Lucknow, The Kids Shop; in Goderich, Schaefer's Ladies' Wear or call 523-4366 or 523-4563. (after 6 p.m.). Tickets purchased by March 28, will be entered in the Early Bird Draw. The lucky recipient of this draw will be presented with their basket full of wonderful surprises on the day of the event. Morris Twp. council will apply for more that half a million in assis- tance, as the loss of funds due to provincial downloading becomes clearer. A-resolution was passed, at the March 3 meeting, which stated the township is applying for funding under the special circumstances fund, in the amount of $526,660. Council understands the fund is a one-time assistance fund and that they must review services over the long-term with consideration given to initiating programs to increase revenue to offset expenditures and long-term user fees to offset the provision of basic services. It also stated the user fees will be maintained over the long term to cover the cost of the operation of the water systems in the municipal- ity which will be possible if fund- ing can be received for the capital outlay. Council realized the fund was for the transition year of 1998 to shel- ter the impact of the loss of the farm tax rebate and municipal sup- port grant in the predominantly rural municipality. After listening to Chief Building Official Paul Josling's report on the nutrient management plan seminar held in Brussels, March 3, council agreed to send a letter to the Ontario Federation of Agriculture explaining council's position. They believe a qualified person should do the nutrient management plan if a building permit is required. Josling was authorized to attend a septic seminar with the registration fee waived and all other cost split between the five municipalities. Having attended a septic inspec- tion meeting in Clinton, Josling recommended inspections be taken over by the conservation authori- ties. With plans for a new Wingham recreation complex moving ahead, Councillor Edna McLellan asked why it was moving so quickly and questioned who would operate the food booth. Plans of the complex are avail- able for viewing at Wingham Town Hall and Morris Twp. office. Council had no objections for a lottery license application by the North Huron Sports and Leisure Complex committee or the selling of the tickets in the township. Russ Taylor of Reid and Associ- ates was in attendance to review the 1997 financial statements with council. The township had a $177 surplus for the year. A letter was received from the Ministry of Environment and Energy regarding regulations for water testing and upgrading of water systems. Council will respond in writing that regulations should be less strict for small systems as the cost cannot be afforded. A meeting will be held March 24 with Brussels representatives, to discuss waste and the fire agree- ment. Council responded to a request from East Wawanosh council con- cerning the Belgrave Community Centre budget by saying a meeting was not necessary as it would cost $500. Also, it should be up to the community centre board to call a meeting and they should be present. The agreement for the Brussels Medical Dental Centre was approved.
