Real estate, insurance firm splits The Brussels 4-Hers met for their fourth and fifth meeting at the home of Julia Mitchell. The president introduced Marg Saxon, who was the guest for this meeting. She taught the basics of sign language. Members discussed the simple signs people use for thank you and each received a sheet with the sign language alphabet. After the demonstration they played a game where each person received a word and they were to say one word on the sheet and so on. The purpose for this game was about talking in front of people. The next meeting was about recycling. To start things off the youth leader showed things that can be recycled or reused, then one leader told how to create something from the containers she had brought. Members made baskets from strawberry quarts, a caterpillar from an egg carton and repainted a t-shirt. The next topic was judging.

The move was towards realizing a longtime career plan. "In our business you have to plan for the future," said Sholdice. Due to many reasons, such as licensing requrements takeovers must be gradual, he explains. While Mulvey will now handle all the real estate, Sholdice Insur- ance will offer general insurance, such as personal, auto, commercial and farm, as well as life and dis- ability, travel and investments, including RSPs, GICs, equity funds and eventually Mutual funds. The staff, Mary Bone, an employee for 25 years with the company and part-timers Michelle McNichol and Marlene Fischer, The next event for 4-H will be the garage sale in May with the Town of Brussels. will continue to provide office sup- port. Sholdice said the move has been a positive one for his family as well as himself. "I have always wanted to be in business for myself. I am feeling really great about this opportunity." this they used plants. The youth leader demonstrated how to judge then each judged and gave reasons. On April 4 the Brussels Handy Helpers met at Rocking R Stables for their achievement.
