moment, so please watch out for our
children. Halloween is a great night
for the imagination so let yours free
as the wee ones come to call.
On that. same subject of
imagination, tuck away your loose

Looking into the future
Junior students at Brussels Public School enjoyed an afternoon of fun and games, Oct. 25 as
seniors provided a Halloween fun day for the children. While Ami Schimanski read the palms
of McKenzie McGavin other students had their faces painted, tossed bean bags, made crafts
or participated in other games. (Janice Becker photo)

articles for in this week of
Halloween the big kids always get
ideAs, so help them and get your junk
away. Some of the "good old days"
stories make it very clear that times
have not changed very much -- only
the articles and people at hand.
So instead of complaining about
the youth today, think about your
favourite Halloween story and share
it with a kid. Next Saturday perhaps!
Pop in at Just For You and see
Rene playing store again. She'll sell
you a flower and a house tour ticket
at the same time. The tour thing is a
very popular fundraiser in recent,
years and the neat part is that every
house and every decorating crew
make each stop unique. So set aside
some time on Nov. 8, 9 or 10 to see
the United Church as well as five
homes decorated in fine attire as you
support our main street. •
Memories were strong this week
as the clerk's office at the corner of
Mill Street was demolished. Stories
of council over the years were
reviewed and like everything else
I'm sure the tales improve with age,
but they are worth a thought or two.
Remember when Jack Thynne did
his column (before spellcheck was
invented) and the brunt of his pencil
was often council. Be sure to tell Joe
and Greg a tale or two, it will make
their East Huron job a little easier
and with about the same amount of
thanks.
Our snowbirds are starting to pack
up for warmer places. Have a nice
winter. We'll see you in the spring.
It was good to see Richard and
George wandering about the village
as they too prepare for a stint south
before heading back to their home
out west.
The recreation committee are
planning an evening of remembering
and celebration. Our community
centre is 25 years old. Oh my, how
the time flies.
Get your ticket for Dec. 7 and
remember, and celebrate all the work
and community effort that put that
building in its place.
We certainly live in a place of
blessing. The land, the weather, the
people, the work ethic, the
generosity of , time and the
community involvement that are
ours for the receiving. sometimes we
take all this for granted.
Don't. If you think communities
like ours just happen, think again,
and start to do your part to make it
continue. We live in a very special
place.
Bye now, Betty G. W.
