tation of a system of graduated
support programs and NISA
payments distributed according to
the size of the farm operation, The
motion suggested this would allow
the distribution of funding so that
the maximum number of farmers,
communities and organizations
could be maintained.
Hamilton in supporting the motion
said, "We are losing farmers at an
alarming rate and we feel a
graduated system will help stem this
problem."
He ended his presentation by
stating, "If we continue on the road
to the commercial farm we will see a
reduced level of support to fewer
I am saddened to write that this
will be George and Isobel Pearson's
last week in Ethel as they will be
moving to Listowel this Saturday.
Mr. and Mrs. Pearson have a rich'
history in the Ethel area, both having

Browntown Road. George attended
SS No. 6, Barker's School while
Isobel attended SS No. 5, which is

pleased to welcome a new student
named Kayla to their class last week.
The class enjoyed learning a poem
and song called Old Grumbler.
While learning this song, which is
fairly long, they used their sequence
words that they've been using to

snails, crayfish and fish.
In art, the class made line projects.

larger farms."
It quickly became apparent that
this method of helping small farmers
was not accepted by all.
Pat Down expressed the view that
"caps have never worked in
organizations that have tried them."
Others stated that they felt the
motion would pit large and small
farmers against each other. After
several minutes of lively discussion
the resolution was passed.
Johns expressed some surprise
concerning the resolution. She said,
"It is an interesting dichotomy that
this resolution should come out of
the Huron federation. This area has
some of the largest and wealthiest
farms and farmers."
the tiny silver schoolhouse by Maple
Keys bush.
After their marriage in the Ethel
United Church, they moved onto the
farm of George's parents at Lot 20,
Cone. 4 on Browntown Line. The
Pearsons then bought the hardware
store in Ethel (now the home of
Andrew Versteeg) in 1947 and lived
above the 'store with their young
family until 1957.
For the winter of 1957-58 they
lived in our place, the old Vodden
house and in 1958- bought the home
now owned by the Boyer family,
where they lived until 1970.
In 1970, the Pearsons bought the
farm now owned by their son Bill
and lived there until Bill and Brenda
were married and took it over in
1981. Once again, in 1981, the
Pearsons lived above the hardware
stiire (now owned by Doug and Jean
Evans) until purchasing the home in
which they currently live.
George and Isobel have been
active in the Ethel community all
their lives. Isobel belonged to the
Women's Institute when there was a
branch in Ethel and was very active
in the Ethel United Church. George
has been on the cemetery board for
50 years and was a Grey Twp,
firefighter for 25 years.
On behalf of the Ethel community
1 wish George and Isobel Pearson
well in Listowel. And, at the risk of
sounding sappy, may I also say that
your 'presence will he greatly
missed.
