THE CITIZEN, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 26, 2006. A NOTE FROM BETTY By Betty Graber Watson Call 887-6236 887-9231 Ralph and his mom, Alma have returned from a good visit with the Dane clan in Grand Prairie, Alberta. When friendships span years the connection remains strong even when visits are not as frequent as one wishes. Kaye (Irwin) Dane started her connection to Alma when she came to Orange Hill in Howick Twp. many years ago. Distance, time and life have not separated them and so this Octobcr visit was one of many over their lives. The travellers are both glad to be home. The hockey crew is into routine and ready for another season. Drop by the community centre to see the action. The Halloween decorations are fun to view — both in daylight and dark. It's interesting to see how the fun of the time has spread to take in the weeks before Oct. 31 and no longer just the day itself. Bye now, Betty G.W.

When the girls were playing the rain had started to fall, but the weather didn't stop them. (Shawn Loughbn photo) FROM BRUSSELS Lame duck stalls library decision By Shawn Loughlin Citizen staff Hands are tied all around the table for the most part with Huron East council right in the middle of a lame duck period, but they're doing what they can with what they have. The ever-present topic of the Brussels Library was brought up again this week. Members of council spoke on behalf of the citizens of Brussels who want to know what is happening with their library. Finalizing plans for the library would take large amounts of funds council said, and because of the lame duck period, council cannot approve those kinds of funds. Brussels councillor David Blaney said that the people he had talked with were not in favour of moving the library beside the arena. Mayor Joe Seili brought up two options for the future, considering the opinions of the Brussels residents of whom Blaney spoke, that there could be renovations to the library or a new structure could be built very close to the old one. "People want the library downtown," Blaney said. Blaney then asked fellow Brussels councillor Frank Stretton what he had heard on the topic, and Stretton agreed with Blaney saying that moving the library beside the arena was a very unpopular idea among the citizens.
