VOL. 2 NO.7 Blyth Council to help with Threshers parade There will be a bigger presence in downtown Blyth of the Huron Pioneer Thresher Reunion this September as part of the 25th anniversary of the event, Blyth Village council decided Feb. 4. The past several years the council has helped pay the cost of the band for the short parade on Saturday and representatives of the Thresher Association asked at the meeting if council would agree to undertake this again. When the significance of the anniversary was pointed out council agreed that something special should be done. Wayne Huston of the Threshers wondered about involving the Board of Trade but was informed it is no longer active. Clerk Larry Walsh suggested that prizes should be awarded to makers of floats, etc. participating in the parade. Councillor Tom Cronin suggested more of the artifacts from the show itself should be brought downtown to be partof the parade. It was noted that bands should be contacted now because they are booking for the fall already. Council appointed councillors Tom Cronin and Bill Howson to sit on a committee with representa- tives to be appointed from the Threshers' Association. The council also appointed councillors Lloyd Sippcl and Bill Manning to act with representa- tives of the Threshers to explore the possibilty of purchasing more land adjacent to the fairgrounds which would be used for parking during Thresher Reunion and available for other purposes the rest of the year. The Threshers would pay a major part of the cost of any acquisition. Reeve Albert Wasson pledged co-operation of the council in anyway possible. "What we're trying to do here is keep these organizations (the Blyth Festival had earlier made a presentation) alive and healthy," he said. Carman Craig of the Threshers said that, despite the weather, last year was a successful year. Secretary -treasurer Marian Halla- han said the event cleared about 51200 last year. Councillors later pointed out that other groups benefit as much or more from their association with the Thresher Reunion, pumping more money back into the local community. In other business, council re- ceived a letter from Larry Struthers of the Ministry of Environment saying that he had visited the Blyth-Hullett Waste Disposal Site and found the gate unlocked in violation of rules which say there must be controlled access to the site. Council voted to send copies of the letter to private contractors who have keys to the gate suggesting that if the gate is left open again, they will be requested to return their keys.

BYBOBMURPHY Huron County council took its first step Thursday toward the dissolution of the present Huron County Library Board. Atltsrcguiarscsslonat the court house in Goderich, council adopted an executive committee recom- mendation that the necessary step be taken to have a Private Members Bill introduced in the legislature at Queen's Park which would dissolve the present board and make council itself the new Huron County Library Board. The bill will seek to have the change effective Jan. 1, 1987, with council becoming the board on that date and a committee of council then responsible for the library's operation. • According to the executive committee recommendation, the composition of the new library committee will remain the same as at present with the warden, three members of council and three appointees who are non-members of council. Council, in a recorded vote, opted 25 to 6 for the recommenda- tion. Voting against the proposal were Deputy Reeve J. P. Hoherty (Town of Goderich), Deputy Reeve Lossy Fuller (Exeter), Reeve Bill Mickle (Exeter), Reeve Ernest Snell (East Wawanosh) and Reeve Harryworsell (Goderich), who cast both of his votes on the nay side. Absent from Thursday's session was Reeve Allan Gibson (Ash- field). In a prepared statement read to council, Reeve Tom Cunningham (Hullett), current library board chairman, said the proposed change would not change the dayto•dayoperationof the library. "Each and every elected repre- sentative will be responsible to see that the library service is strength- ened and maintained," he said. v -abolish board Special Brides section inside This week's issue of The Citizen features a special 12.page supple- ment for brides.

Cunningham, who was also acting chairman for the executive committee, Thursday, told council he was making his remarks to clarify some of the apparent misunderstandings over the pro- posal.

Blyth area fire costs up, but not salaries The levy ofthe Blyth and District Arca Fire Board to local municipal- ities will go up over 10 per cent this year, but don't blame it on higher salaries for the firemen, Blyth Clerk -Treasurer Larry Walsh told his council last week, The increase, which in Blyth will see the cost of fire protection increase from 55130 in 1985 (which had been unchanged from 1984) to 55700. Blyth pays 19 per cent of the 530,000 budget. Mr. Walsh explained that the fire board's new budget will allow about 510,000 extra in working funds for the fire department. In the past few years, the board had been so short of money it had held up payment of firemen's salaries until part of the next year's levy had been paid. Firemen will get paid on time under the new budget but they won't get paid any more. The firemen voted not to increase their own salaries because they would rather see the money used to keep equipment updated for the fire department that covers one of the largest areas in the county. Under the new budget the charge to area townships will be as follows: Hullett township (29 per cent of cost) 58700; East Wawa. nosh, (20 per cent) 56,000; Morris (15 per cent) 54500; West Wawa. nosh, (seven per cent) 52100; McKillop (10 per cent) 53000.

THE CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 1986. Quick action, wrong issue It's hard to know if Agriculture Minister Jack Riddell in his proposed legislation to save farmland is 10 years behind the issue or 10 years ahead. Preservation of farmland is not a big issue in rural Ontario these days. Preservation of farmers is. And preservation of farm communities is, too. Unfortunately, Mr. Riddell seems to be moving in the wrong direction on that issue. What was to be hoped was that he, would introduce "right to farm" legislation that would mean basically that urban people who move into rural areas have to live by the farmers' rules. Instead of barns having to be so many feet from residences, it would be residences that had to be so many feet from barns. What hopefully could happen after such legislation was that the local townships could relax the restrictions on rural scvercnces, particularly on existing farm houses. The crisis for us right now is the destruction of rural houses and barns by corporate farm owners. Most recent rumourwe've heard is that the big corporations are offering marc fora farm with the buildings removed than they arc with the buildings stili standing because they don't want the hassle they get from people when they tear down buildings. Buildings are being taken down because the tax system is a disincentive to keeping them up: Tough scvcrence rules say they can no longer be divided from the property because people arc worried that "city" people will come out to Huron County and complain about the smells and noise of farming. We need those houses standing, tilled with people who buy in our local stores and pay taxes to maintain roads, schools, etc. The solution is to let the people come (most will be local town people who are used to farm smells and be willing to live with them) and rearrange the rules so that the farmer's right to be free of harassment from non-farm neighbours is protected. Yes, preservation of farmland is worthwhile but at the pres- ent time it is so far down the list of priorities for an agriculture minister that one must wonder where Mr. Riddell has bccn for the last decade. It was a hot topic in 1976. In 1986 we're more worried about having farmers left to farm the land Mr. Riddell wants to save. What he's proposing is comparable to the government of Ethopia taking up its time drafting flood -control legislation. Positive thinking Two different villages, two sets of problems, two sets of solutions but one thing in common: positive thinking. Last week the councils of both Brussels and Blyth met and councillors in both communities showed positive attitudes toward the future, not the kind of short -terns, clutching of the purse strings, that can paralyze a community's progress. In Brussels' case on Monday night it was action on trying to draw new jobs to town by setting up an industrial commission with surrounding townships and beginning negotiations for the purchase of industrial land. In Blyth it was the pledging of continued support for two success stories in the village: the Huron Pioneer Thresher Rcunionand the Blyth Festival. Both organizations have pumped millions of dollars into the local economy over the years. Both are making plans for the future. Council was supportive of the plans of each of them. It's easy to sec the gloomy side of things, all the reasons things can't orshouldn't be done. It's far better to keep pushing to change things, to keep the things strong that arc strong and to make things happen when they haven't bccn happening. Something can be done Senseless vandalism is one of the things that gets people upset more than anything else these days, often because they feel nothing can be done to stop it. The public has become cynical about the actions of the justice system to crack down on even major crime, let alone smaller incidents of stupidity. There's reason to take heart every now and then, however, when the system docs work. Such is the case of the senseless destruction of flagpoles and theft of flags from the decorative planter installed by George Radford Construction as part of its renovations on main street of Blyth. It took only three months from when the improvements were made until a group of young men wrecked it. The case upset people in the community enough that police were given extra incentive to solve it. They eventually tracked down the culprits and discovered that flag -stealing was a "game" they played and they had in their possession dozens of flags from a wide arca. Things didn't stop there, however. Fearful that the courts would be too lenient on the youths, both the company and the village of Blyth wrote to the crown attorney asking him to seek strong punishment. In the long run, perhaps to the surprise of the men involved, the punishment was tough but fair. They were each given one year's probation, ordered to make full restitution and sentenced to 75 hours work for the community. They've paid a price but won't have criminal records. The cast can stand as encouragement to the community that something can be done to curb vandalism and a warning to those who think this kind of thing is a gag, that the "laughs could be costly. 0 REALIZ.E, IF HE KEEPS il�tS UP, He COULD PUT US our OF A 306 ! " The world view from Mabel's Grill There are people who will tell you that the important decisions in town arc made down at the town hall. People in the know, howcvcr know that thereat debates, the real wisdom reside clown at Mabel's Grill where the greatest minds in the town (if not in the country) gather for morning coffee break, otherwise known as the Round Table Debating and Filibustering Society. Since not just everyone can partake of these deliberations we will report the activities from time to time. MONDAY: Ward Black was storm- ing this morning about the waste of money that C.B.C. is. ."ro think they use my tax dollars to make garbage like that," Ward said. (Have you ever noticed people claim they never listen to CBC or watch CBC television but they always know about all the things the corporation does that they think is a terrible waste of money?) Anyway, it seems there was this guy on the radio who played a sculpture. Not played with sculp- ture but played on one, making some kind of music. "The thing that getsyou," Ward says, "Is that this guy probably got a Canada Council grant to ncakc the damned sculpture in the first place, then another one to sit around and bang on the thing and pretend it was music. Damnedest noise you ever heard. l could give my grandson some pots and pans and a wooden spoon and he could probably ncakc a better sound." "Well," says Billy Bean, "look at it this way. Bc glad it was just radio. Thal sculpture probably sounded better than it looked." TUESDAY: Hank Stokes was talking about this television show he saw the other night about women going through this big- time business course at University of Western Ontario. Seems these women arc moving right in to the big jobs in companies but they've got problems being accepted as one of the boys. Hank says, they must be paranoid. Julia Flint tried to say something but Billy Bean beat her to it. "I mean they get all these high -paid jobs that men could be doing but they say they're hard used. I'd like to earn what some of those broads take hone." Julia had her mouth open to say something when Ward piped in with "And did you hear that B.S. about women having to get more aggressive if they're going to make it with the men? Men aren't aggressive. They don't have to be bitchy like women to get their points across." Julia was about tosaysocnething when Tim O'Grady said it was time to get back to work and everyone else got up and left. WEDNESDAY: Billie Bean was saying that there's plenty of people complaining that the dollar isn't worth anything anymore. If it isn't, he said, he'd be quite willing to take that garbage off everybody's hands. He wouldn't even charge for waste disposal. FRIDAY: Julia said she was interested to see all the luxury the Duvalier fancily in Haiti had managed to build up in one of the poorest countries in the world. Luxury cars, luxury houses, luxury clothes. And to think, she said, Papa Doc was just a quiet country doctor. Hank said he hoped that Ontario doctors didn't watch too much television and catch the idea that maybe this was a way around the OHIP fee schedule. Warden to intervene in planning dispute BY BOB MURPHY A meeting is to be arranged which will bring together the mayor and reeve of Exeter, Huron County Warden Leona Armstrong, the chairman of the county's planning and development com- mittee and the county planning director. Decision to arrange the meeting was madeby county council during its regular session Thursday and upon recommendation of the exe- cutive committee. The meeting is to investigate questions and concerns raised by Exeterwith respect to the planning department's handling of the proposed Huron Tractor subdivi- sion in Hay Township. Exeter had opposed a bid by Hay Township to seek a zoning change of property In the township's southeast corner in order to accommodate an agricultural re- lated industrial plaza. An Ontario Municipal Board decision last year ruled that the zoning change should not be allowed without documentation of a needs study. The county planning depart- ment is currently conducting the study and Exeter wants the county to pay for the town's planning consultant who will be monitoring the study process and representing Exeter's Interests. Hay Township Reeve Lionel Wilder will also attend the meet- ings in his capacity as chairman of thecounty'splanningand develop- ment committee. Exeter Reeve Bill Mickle advis- ed county,council that his munici- pality is in favor of the meeting. Cr, (1.

Recvc Bill Mickle (Exeter) told council that his municipality was "concerned" about the change and asked why it was required "at this time". With council's current represen- tation of four members on the board "we have the authority on that board," he said. "I am concerned that we may be moving too fast with what we arc wanting to do," Mickle added. He also suggested the county have full assurance that provincial funding under the Library Act would continue should the change be legislated. Deputy Reeve Lossy Fuller (Exeter) also expressed concern for the matter of funding but Clerk•TreasurerBili Hanly said there would be no change in funding. Under the terms of the Library Act, theprovincialfunding is to the library board, Hanly said, and the council will become that board. There are now two counties operating as Huron is proposing to do and they are receiving their grants, Hanly said. Reeve Harry Worsell (Town of Goderich) said he was opposed to the change because he thought "things were going pretty good right now," Student Services told the Huron Board of Education last Monday that due to changes in legislation concerning special education, young offenders and social inter- vention provisions, teachers are being drawn into closer working contact with outside agencies. John Penn, Director of Family Reeve J. R. Kernighan (Col- borne) urged council to "take a stand that goes in the direction of resolving the problem ... and at the same time looks at protecting the (library) budget." He said that the attitude of autonomy exhibited by the current board had been a constant source of frustration for council which funds more than 75 per cent of the library budget. "1 really can't see where the different is," Reeve Lionel Wilder (Hay) said, "all we're asking is to bring the dealings of the board to council for open discussion." According to Reeve Brian Mc- Burney (Turnberry), many of the residents of his municipality who were concerned over the an- nouncement that the county was proposing the change in legislation were "misinformed." "1 don't know where they got their information," he said, "but theyccrtainlywere misinformed." Reeve Grant Stirling (Goderich Township), 1985 library board chairman, said he favored the change because it would give county council more control of the board's operation. "We arc not out to close libraries," he said. The library has been over budget for the past three years, he added. "Sone people are afraid to change," Stirling said, "but I'm not.' Reeve Clarence Rau (Stanley) said that to him the move just made good sense. "If we are funding it, we should have the say," Rau said. Recvc Bob Fisher (Zurich) said he favored the change but also expressed concern on the misin- formation circulated to Huron County residents. "Somebody obviously phoned these people to advise them to oppose this," Fisher said, "for what reason, 1 don't know," The Walton Area Sports Club would like to thank all those who helped, participated and donated to make our Poker Rally a success.

Penn told the board that the new Family Services Act set out clearly the rights of children in their care. There has been some criticism, he said, that involves more red tape and service delivery is affected (particularly for kids over 12. They have the option of refusing help). The case load of the Agency is 250 families and 65 children of which the majority are in foster homes. Under the old Act children could be ordered into the care of the Service by the court but now, said Penn, they can refuse the service and the agency is limited in what it can do for the child. Due to budget retraints the Family and Children's Service has had a reduction in its 1986 services and this compels them to work all the more closely with the schools to plan the needs of the kids. The Huron Centre for Youth has two offices, Clinton and Stratford. Both offices handle a case load of 300 new families each per year. Individuals and families are referred to the Centre by schools, doctors, nurses and Children's Aid Societies but more and more families are seeking help on their own. The counsellors help the family as well as the child with the problem by showing them new ways and ideas of handling problems. Keillor told the board that a child's behaviour is learned and consequently new ways of behav- ing can also be learned. Parents sometimes see pro- blems with children as the fault of the school and the school sees it as the fault of the family. Keillor told the board that both have a role in rectifying the problem. The Huron -Perth Centre for Youth is participating more at home and school meetings and working with teachers on pro- grams geared to help their clients. "We deal with problems as part of a normal growing experience" Keillor said. Tony Mcquail opened the ques- tioning with "Do you feel there is enough co-operation between schools and agencies?" Both Penn and Kciilor agreed that there hasn't been enough frequency with any one school to establish a trust. Past meetings .with school members have helped create the environment of support and cooperation needed, School bd says no smoking BY RHEA HAMILTON-SEEG ER The air in the committee and meeting rooms of the Huron Board of Education will be considerably easier to breath with the formal approval of a "no smoking" request. The executive committee re- viewed the issue of smoking during the meetings and last Monday the board approved the resolution that members be requested not to smoke and that a ten minute break be provided each hour for the personal comfort of members. The current policy of smoking in designated areas in the schools remain unchanged although it was recommended that consideration be given to the comfort and preferences of adults within the school. 4Sitieeej from Max Roses are red Violets are blue Buy a small appliance or gift And Max will give a silk flower to you!

Afterward ho chatted with Al Craig of Auburn, a member of the Blyth Minor Sports committee. Schools running below budget BY RHEA HAMILTON•SEEGER An unaudited expenditure sheet was presented to the Huron Board of Education in Clinton last week and the good news is that many departments ran close to, or below, budget. Robert Allen, Director ofEduca- tion and secretary -treasurer, com- mented that this was fol the board's information and that the final audited version would not differ too much. Salaries for the elementary and secondary levels arc on budget at 99.5 per cent of budget, and 99.6 per cent, Under new capital replacement there has been only 43 per cent of the budget used. Allen explained that they budget major items over five years and allocate their funds in the budget for the projects but do not proceed until approval and, or funding has been given from the government level. Projects like the elevator at Victoria Public School, Goderich, has been budgeted for but not given the go head yet. The energy saving program that has been implemented in the schools is already being recorded with over $120,000 saved in lower utility and heating bills. An audited statement will be presented in April. The school damage report indi- cates fewer or less costly damages have been incurred in the county schools. During the past year 512,856.82 was paid out for materials, outside tradesmen and extra custodial time to make repairs. Insurance covers damages over S10,000.Premiums make itprohib- itive to have coverage for less costly damages.

Morris gets warning about waste disposal site BYDOROTHYFOXTON Morris Township council was threatened with closure of its township waste disposal site un- less it complies with no -burning and proper garbage -covering rules by the Ministry of the Environment in a letter read at township council February 4. The letter warned that there must be compaction of the garbage and covering every two weeks and there must be absolutely, no burning of household refuse or the ministry would rescind the certifi• cote of approval which allows the site to operate. An angered Reeve Doug Fraser said the township can't afford to have a bulldozer sitting at the dump site so it will be available to cover garbage every two weeks. He said such rules might result in everyone taking their refuse out to the back field and burning it. Reeve Fraser said by burning the dumpsite there is just one big smoke instead of a whole lot of little ones. He didn't think Morris should be under the same regula- tions say as Toronto because it just isn't thesamcthing. Councillor Bob Grasby said burning takes a quarter of the space and cuts down on rodents, Council said they would try to go along with the Ministry, but felt that they would have to push for burning even if it meant writing a letter to their member of parliament about chan- ging the law. Bob Grasby said he thinks they arc trying to close down small dump sites and just have a county one. . Council voted to grant the Belgrave, Blyth and Brussels school fair one hundred dollars in answer to a letter with thanks for supporting them other years. Ralph Clayton and Donna McGee representatives of the Ministry of Agriculture and Food spoke to councilabouta Drain Maintenance program and appointing a Drain- age Superintendent. Council is seriously considering appointing a superintendent. In order to do this the person appointed would have to take a course and write an exam to become certified. He then would be in charge of repair work on all township drains. Council can receive a grant for a third of construction costs and 50 per cent of the superintendent's salary. The otherSOpercentofhissalarywould come out of general funds. Deputy Reeve Cleni McClellan was appointed to sit on an Industry Resolution asks appeal deposit BYBOBMURPHY A Goderich Township resolution which seeks amendment to the Drainage Act calling for a deposit to accompany all appeals was endorsed Thursday by Huron County council. During its regular February session at the court house in Goderich, council endorsed the resolution on the recommendation of its executive committee. The Goderich Township resolu• tion requests agriculture and Food MinistcrJack Riddell to amend the Drainage Act to allow for the deposit of 5100 to accompany any appeal to the drainage tribunal. Such a deposit is to be refunded entirely should the tribunal alter the engineer's report which has been the subject of appeal. However, the deposit is to be retained by the municipality in the event the engineer'sreport is upheld. Development Committee with Brussels and Grey township. Clerk Nancy Michic read council a letter from Tuckersmith Township Day Care Centre concerning costs for running the centre. Apparently there arc three children from Morris attending the centre and they say if the township doesn't participate in the costs they cannot consider children out of the municipality first. Council has never paid any of the operating deficit before. Councillor Burt Elliott said since the township doesn't support the Wingham day care centre it couldn't verywell pay into one and not the other. Bob Grasby said if the Tuckersmith centre has extra operating costs it should charge enough to cover it. Council received a letter from Murray Elston thanking them for their support of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture Morat- orium. He said that he hopes the family farm once again becomes a viable operation. George Proctor addressed coon- ell on the Belgrave Community •Centre budget for 1986. The budget showed expenditures of 524,205. Mr. Procter said the assessment of 54,525 for miscellaneous hard- ware and repairs is mainly to meet the demands on fixing the arena. He said 52500 is already spent and they arc hoping that the 54,525 will cover It. When asked if, since the township is wet now, he thought that would make a difference for dancesorwhateveratthcarcna,he said he didn't know but he didn't really think so. Mr. Proctor thanked the town- ship for supporting the Belgrave Community Centre. Harry Brydgcs of Belgrave will be counting dogs in Morris town- ship atS1.30perdog. A motion was passed to tender 25,000 cubic feet ofcrushed gravel for the north side of Morris township for 1986.

Right -to -farm advisory committee set up The need for new measures to protect the right to farm in Ontario will be examined by a new advisory committee, Agriculture and Food Minister Jack Riddell said recent- ly. ecent•ly The six -member committee will recommend options to protect Ontario farm operations from incompatible land uses and from complaints against normal farm practices, Riddell said. "Some farmers may feel their rights to undertake normal farm- ing practices have been constrain- ed because of complaints from neighbors," he said. "The committee will determine the cause and extent of the problems caused by non-agricul- tural land uses in close proximity to farm operations." The commit tee ischaircd by Don Dunn, director of the ministry's foodland preservation branch. Committee members are: Ralph Ferguson, RR 7, Watford; Earl Muir, RR 6, Niagara.on-the-Lake; Dorothy Middleton, RR 2, Crysler; Otto Crone, RR 4. Hagersvilie and Burnie Evans, Embro. Sue Robin- son, of the ministry's foodland preservation branch, will serve as secretary to the committee. Current legislation, policies and programs pertaining to farm prac- tices will be assessed, while the advisory committee will also evalu- ate the effectiveness of programs to protect farm operations in other jurisdictions. A new Foodland Preservation Policy statement and a revised Agricultural Code of Practice have recently been released by the minister for public comment. THE CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 1986.

Eleven steers consigned by Z1M Riddell protects farm land A proposed new policy that would strengthen protection of Ontario agricultural lands was issued Feb. 4 by Agriculture and Food MinistcrJack Riddell and Municipal Affairs Minister Bern- ard Grandmaitrc. The Foodland Preservation Poli- cy statement, which is being released for public comment, proposes tighter restrictions on non-agricultural development of prime agricultural land, "Preserving ourprime farmland is one of the highest priorities of my ministry," Riddell said. "It is one of our most precious natural resources and must be protected for this generation and for future generations." The province has the important responsibility of protecting our agricultural resources for all the people of Ontario, Riddell said. Grand maitre said the province is anxious to receive comments from municipalities, farm organizations and interest groups which have been forwarded copies of the proposed policy. "We want to ensure the public has the fullest possible opportunity tocomment on this policy state- ment," he said. Policy statements arc issued under the Planning Act as formal expressions of the province's interest in major land use planning matters. They provide a broad provincial framework under which munici- palities can set out their own planning objectives in official plans and zoning bylaws. Riddell said the government has already introduced Important mea- sures to ensure the survival of farmers in financial difficulty. Now, the government wants to help ensure the preservation of the farmland itself, he said. The new policy proposal is intended toreplace current provin- cial policy contained in the 1978 Food Land Guidelines. Copies of thc Foodland Presor- vation Policy statement are avail. able from the county offices of the Ministry of Agriculture and Food, and the Ministry of Municipal Affairs.

Stidx4 '86 How to survive your wedding day As 'anyone who has gotten married can tell you, the months leading up to a wedding can be a time of stress as well as happiness. There'sjustso much to think about and dol You need to find ceremony and reception sites, to choose just the right clothes, to make some touchy decisions about who will be in your wedding, to furnish n complete home for your life after the wedding - and all this while you're having the inevitable doubts about getting married in the first place. While wedding jitters arc about as common as weddings, there arc ways to make sure the anxiety doesn't getout of hand. Bride's magazine has these commonsense suggestions: • Don't be afraid to admit you're upset. Tell your partner what's FOREVER YOURS The magic of your love is forever expressed in an exclusively designed engagement ring by Siffari. Select the ring in your price range that tells her your love will last forever. Seaforth Jewellers Seaforth, Ontario 527-0270 — – bothering you, whether it's a serious question about your rela- tionship orarelatively trivial worry that you'll go blank when it comes time to say your vows. • if you try to keep the stressful feelings to yourself, you'll only transfer them to something else, getting overly irritated at a late train, ora run in your stockings. Take positive action whenever possible: Sign up for a premarital workshop. Practise reciting your vows in front of a willing friend. *Share the wedding responsi- bilities. If you're the bride, don't assume you have to do everything yourself. This idea is old-fashioned as well as exhausting. Ask your fiance to join you in picking out a catering hall and registering for gifts. Hecan writes share of the thank -you notes and handle all the the honeymoon arrangements. • Keep a calendar of everything you have to do. This kind of master plan gives you the secure feeling that you're not forgetting some- thing crucial. Also gather any business cards, fabric swatches or magazine clippings you accumu- lateall together inoneplace- either a wedding planner niadc for this purpose or a simple manila envelope. Organization has the magical effect of reducing anxiety to a manageable level. • Have a system for each task. Say you're doing your invitations. First, see if the task can be broken down into steps. (You have to address the envelopes, stuff them, scal them and stamp them.) Then, decide how you'll tackle each step: How long it should take and who will do it. Next, seta completion date (invitations should be mailed six weeks before the wedding). Finally, take action by setting a time and a place to begin. • Pace yourself • don't plan to scout for reception sites the same day you have a report due at work. You'll make it through those pre -wedding months if you pro. mise yourself you won't tackle more than one major job a day. • Guard your health. Don't let a hectic schedule keep you from eating right, or often enough. You'll feel even more jittery from the weakness that results from a drop in blood sugar. • Be sure to get enough rest and exercise too. Did you know that exercise increases the body's level of norepinephrine, a substance that givesyou a feeling of calmness and well-being? If sleep eludes you at night because you have too much on your mind, try the time -tested soothers: A hot bath, warm milk or a hack rub.

In carlicrdays, wars were fought over gemstones, and legends were invented about them. Today, we still search for them, study then and collect them. And, according to Jewelers of America, the national association of 12,000 retail jewelers across the United States, although lifestyles, goals and values have changed, the symbol of love attached to a gemstone has never changed. Today's couples still express thcirsentimentswith jewelry...the universal symbol of love. When did it all begin? Before written history. Yet, some of the traditions and folklore that existed before man could read or write have endured through the centur- ies. In fact, even today, gemstones are often selected on the basis of long -ago conceived folklore. In which month were you born? When is your wedding anniver- sary? How long have you been married? There are legendary colours and gemstones for every month and for every year of marriage. There's added enjoy- ment by knowing some of the folklore behind your precious choice. A few examples; • The green emerald signifies growing love. In addition, it was said to strengthen the memory and to help its owner become an eloquent speaker. It was also thought to give the power to predict the future and to make people more intelligent and honest. • The amethyst symbolized protection, peace, tranquility, pie- ty, spiritual wisdom, humility, sincerity and contentment. It was also said to protect a person against intoxication, to improve the com- plexion and to prevent baldness. A dream of amethyst meant the dreamer was safe from harm. • The aquamarine, in Its shades of blue, comes from the Greek word 9Jte Einen stop ..,a gift store with a difference Much more than linens.

It was also thought to establish happy marriages. Should harmony flee, it would help reconcile the partners' differences. • The red Ruby signified peace and health. Never make facts at a ruby or ignore one, because it will grow dull if slighted or not worn or seen. THE CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 1986.

It was considered a bearer of victory and an emblem of fearlessness and invincibility; it was said to drive away ghosts if worn on the left arm. It was reputdd a protection against poison and a bringer of good fortune. It was even said that it could make the wearer invisible! There are endless wondrous stones and legends, according to Jewelers of America, and specially designated colors and genes for birthstones and wedding anniver- sary stones. ay11 11( g r 6 pp 9 �1 g3riaair ��aada0 Your Complete Bridal Centre 53 Downie Street, Strai/brd Special Showroom on Second Floor 273-0023 Monday to 7'Ir ursday and Saturday 9.5:.?(1 !Friday 9-9: Thursday evening by appoinnru'nt �; i Photo by Ridgewood Studios Accessories C2 Headpieces (7 Gloves . 7 Crinolines (7 Ringbearer Pillows GOWNS 9 WEDDING Gowns Petite, Regular, Ove,sito Bridesmaid Dresses - Cocktail length Formnl (2 Mother of the.

Throughout history, the mother by marriage has been a figure of fun in folklore, literature, even botany: The alter- nate name for the snake plant is "mother-in-law's tongue!" But, joking aside, is it really impossible to get along with your mother-in-law? A recent book, Between Mothers -in -Law & Daughters -in -Law, by Helen S. Arnstein (Godd Mead & Company) which was excerpted in a past issue of Bride's magazine, has this advice for young people getting married today: • Realize that times have changed, Says Arnstein, "The days are long past when a mother-in-law dropped by at her daughter-in-law's home, lifted the lid of the simmering pot to inspect herson's dinner, or commented on the dishes stacked in the sink." Your mother-in-law, if she's like many women today, holdsajoband leads an active life • with little time or energy left over to inspect your home. Her own home may be far from perfectI • Let goof preconceived notions. "First impressions can set the tone of a relationship," claims Arn- stein. Think of your mother-in-law as your spouses's mother, instead of associating her with the stereo- type. She is the mother of the person you love, and part of the things you love were fostered by her. Give her every chance to be known as an individual: Isn't that what you want? • Borrow from her wisdom now and then. Put yourself in your mother-in-law's place and think how an older person would feel if there was nothing she could contribute to the younger genera- tion. So, if she suggests something in good faith, give it a try. After all, under her tutelage, your spouse turned out pretty well! • Should she nag and complain, realize that this behavior may stem from unhappy experiences in her life and may not necessarily be a reflection on you. The "interfering mother-in-law" often doesn't have any outlets for her abilities. You and your spouse might be able to work on that. • Check your own behavior. THE CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 1986. PAGE 15. Could you unknowinglybe doing or saying something to upsct her? Are you as critical of her ways as she is of yours? "Speaking out," regardless of which generation does it, is more likely to be .4) fr successful if done at the right time and with tact. • Give it time. With the right attitude, problems often resolve themselves simply through living and learning.

Elided 16 Madng a marriage wor Tips on making a marriage last BYDOUOZEHR PASTOR BRUSSELS MENNONITE FELLOWSHIP One of the sad realities in thinking about marriage is that many marriages of today just do not last. That is not the kind of thinkingoneexpectsyoung engag- ed couples to be contemplating. But perhaps the romantic imagine- tions of courting days need to be invaded with a little of that kind of reality. A family court judge once said, "I believe half of the divorces I'm asked to grant could be avoided if the couples involved would keep on talking to each other." The judge was only partially right. Communication in marriage is vital, just as it is in any relationship. But good communi- cation is more than talking to each other. Listening and hearing are also important. My guess is that half of the divorces which that judge grants could be avoided if couples would talk Tess to each other and listen more, We need to take time - enough time - to really listen. As someone suggested, listening in- tently, with one's mouth shut, is one of the most valuable gifts a person can give a spouse in the pursuit of a happy marriage. How can we be better listeners? For one thing, when my partner is talking, I need to guard against, or refuse to think about, what I ant going to say when she stops. That is tough, since we actually think four times faster than we speak. Our minds go racing ahead. We look for places to jump in, trying to correct the other, or defend ourselves. When we do that, we mess up the possibilities to really hear what the other person is trying to say. Even listening until the other person is through may not be enough. Understanding includes more than hearing the actual words being spoken. We must ask what the other person means. Whata person actually says and what she means may be twodiffcrent things. One of the major areas of conflict in my own marriage is what I refer to as our difference in styles. It is best (or should 1 say worst) reelected in a number of occasions when 1 would arrive hone a half hour or whole hour later than my wife expected. 'Why didn't you let mc know?' I wou ld argue that it was my style. I go with the flow and 1 cannot guarantee I'll be anywhere at anytime. I want the freedom to be flexible. As the debate contin- ues, 1 would argue that my wife needed more flexibility, more freedom from being so schedule - oriented. 'Why can't you call?' was disturbing to me on the surface. It fel►like an invasion of my privacy. needed to listen to those words more closely. As much as my wife was saying, that her schedule was important, she was also saying, 'I carcaboutyou' and 'I want toknow if you arcalright'. If she didn't love Bring your wedding party to the TRIPLE.

A simple phone call (even long distance) Is worth it if I understand the underlying feel- ings of love and concern. Listening takes time, the kind of time most couples are willing to spend with each other when they arc dating, like those late nights that actually push into the wee hours of the morning, or the slow meandering strolls under the moonlight and the lazy weekend afternoons just spent together. An ongoing marriage requires some of that kind of time. Just as most individuals do not up and decide to get married on the spur of the moment, most marital break downs donothappen on the spur of the moment either. Solid marriage relationships are builtover time with understanding and commitment. In a similar way a marriage relationship begins to deteriorate long before an unfaith- ful act ever takes place. As an artist explained about one of his paintings, 'It took twenty years and one day! Yes, twenty years to become a painter and one day to do the painting. You see, crcatinga scene doesn't happen all at once. First you work at skill development. Then you learn how to sec your world, how 10 open your senses, and how to translate the ideas you get onto the ,;anvas.' And when you think about it, that is how destructive acts take place too. The murderer's disre- gard for human life wasn't adopted overnight. The adulterer's disre- gard for his marriage didn't happen in a moment. The betray- ing of a relationship that is meant to be forever is never an act, but always a process which ultimately results in an act. Lots of time and energy will go into planning the wedding day festivities. Don't rob your marri- age by not thinking about and planning for the time it will take to build a marriage that will last a lifetime. Your relationship needs time and a listening car to hear the real messages behind the words that will be spoken long after the wedding ceremony.

They share cake. The bride throws her bouquet. But do you know how these customs began? The Bride: A Celebration (Harry N. Abrams, Inc.), a book by Barbara Tober, Editor -in -Chief of Bride's magazine, reveals their sometimes surprising origins. The bride throws her bouquet so an unmarried friend can "catch" some luck in romance, goes the modern explanation. But the cus- tom actually started as a form of self-defense.

G•�l _ mcnts prompted friends and strangers alike totry tograb a piece of her outfit. Eventually, some clever bride found that by flinging her flowers away from herself, the crowd would have something to fight over • and she would escape intact) The wedding party originally served the serious purpose of protecting the bride and groom from the curses of evil -washers. They dressed in clothes exactly like those of the bride and groom, so the identity of the happy couple was kept secret on the way to the church and until they were safely married. The first piece of wedding cake is cut and eaten by the bride and groom as a carryover from the time when the sharing of food or wine often was the marriage. Teutons, for example, were considered wed after drinking mead together for thirty days. (The word bridal comes from bride ale). The aisle runner protected the bride from evil spirits who, it was thought, lived below the ground. These demons were also feared to lurk around doorways, hence the bride is carried over the threshold of her new home. Rice symbolizes the age-old hope that the couple will be as fruitful as the earth. In France, THE CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 1986.

THE CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 1986. &ttdaa '86 Wiat's an usier to do? Being an usher in a friend's wedding is an experience that's an honor and usually a lot of fun, too. But, according to Bride's Maga. zine, some ushers do have one complaint: The bride and groom never tell them exactly what they'd like them to do. So they flounder, feeling that they're somehow falling down on the job. If you're getting married soon, you can smooth the way for your ushers by making clear plans now: • Make arrangements for wedd- ing formalwear as soon as possible • to avoid wrong sizes and forgotten accessories. Ushers who live in the area can easily drop by your selected formalwear shop for their fittings. Out.of.town ushers can be measured at a formalwear shop in their respective cities and then send you the measurements. Ask one reliable resident usher to be in charge of reminding the other attendants to get measured and to pick up the out-of-town ushers' tuxedoes before the wedd- ing. • Arrange for accommodations for out•of•towners. Perhaps a resident usher could offer his home to groomsmen who arc coming from far away? Your ushers might also help reserve room for out -of. town wedding guests, either in homes or hotels. • Explain when and where the rehearsal dinner, as well as pre -wedding parties, and the ceremony itself will take place. Set the attendants' parties and other late-night celebrations for the weekend before the ceremony - to prevent morning•after hangovers and bloodshot eyes at the altar. And save the night before your wedding for an carlyevening rehearsal dinner • to ensure that out•of•town attendants, who may arrive only one day before the ceremony, will be there. • Your best man will be Choose pictures carefully for your wedding report The Citizen is delighted to carry wedding pictures and writcups free of charge (up to 300 words) but there arc some tips on choosing a picture for the paper that will give better results for that clipping for your scrap book. Black and white pictures are best for reproduction in a newspaper. Most photographers today, how• ever, do not do their own develop. ingandsodo not have black and white prints of their work, Colour prints can give good reproduction, however, providing you choose carefully, Look for good contrast in the pictures. If people are wearing dark suits or tuxedos, for instance, make sure they aren't against a dark background. This becomes more difficult to choose when one realizes that colours like brown and red turn up black when printed in black and white. Someone in a red dress against a dark brown back- ground will disappear in a black and white picture.• Remember that thefaces need to be as big as possible In a newspaper picture. That nice picture of the bride with her full train won't be nearly as impressive when reduced to fit a newspaper and the bride looks like a speck in the background. Remember, a newspaper deals with what's new (s), Weddings that arc too old are not news.

Recommend that he keep the ring in its box • not loose in his pocket (where it may get temporarily lost) • or on his finger (which might swell!). •Tell your attendants exactly what you want them to do at the wedding: when and where they should dress; when and where they should greet guests; any special seating arrangements; how they can help round up stragglers for the wedding photographer. • Ushers act as extensions of the host of the wedding. They should keep an eye on the guests • especially those who arc elderly. They might drive ordirect guests to the reception, get them drinks and food, help guests who have overimbibcd, or serve as trouble. shooters to quietly. resolve a problem. • Ushers can help smooth your departure from the reception. They can carry gifts to your car, as well as transport the presents to your home; hold the car keys, passports, travelers' cheques, plane tickets; pack luggage intothe getaway car; drive you to the airport or train station; and return formal wear. , Rom' cmber not to be too de- manding. It's your wedding, but your ushers have busy lives of their own. If you ask them for a special favor, thank them for ajob well done.

'b'iided 16 You can help your photographer give you better pictures When you look back on your wedding in years to come, you'll want to have the best possible pictures to remember it by. There are some thins you can do to help make the job of your photographer easier that can result in better pictures, says Blyth photographer Gary Walden. First of all, brides should make up a list of pictures they would like the photographer to take. Most professional photographers al- ready have a list of shots they usually take at weddings, Mr. Walden says, but if you have special pictures you want, you should make the photographer aware of them. If n distant relative or special friend is to be present, for instance, only you will know and be able to tell the photographer you'd like a picture with them. A lot of time can be wasted in getting people organized for the desired pictures. You can help speed things up by delegating someone, perhaps the best man, to keep people from wandering off just when they'll be needed for the picture. Make sure to leave enough time so pictures can be taken properly. Ask your photographer how much time he'll need. Some photograph- ers work very quickly while others like plenty of time to get the effects they want. Schedule the amount of time your photographer needs into the day, for both before the wedding shots and the pictures of the whole bridal party after the wedding. If you arc having pictures taken in your home, make sure the room you choose is large enough. If the photographer has to practically be standing in the next room and taking pictures through a doorway, you're not likely to get the pictures you had hoped for. Make sure the room is relatively clear of furniture too so the photographer can get the angle he wants without breaking a leg. The background for your pic- tures is important. Drapes make a nice soft background but an ordinary wall can give a homey background as long as it isn't too busy. Bare walls can make very blank, uninterestingbackgrounds, Mr. Walden says. Of course the outdoors is best of all if the weather co-operates. If you are going to have your photos takenoutside, however, make sure you choose an ideal location. Most people make the mistake of thinking bright sunlight is the best location but actually it's just the opposite, Mr. Walden says. A lightlyovercastdayis excellent but on a sunny day, choose a place that offers moderate shade. It will make you much more comfortable while you wait forthe pictures to be taken and people will look more natural, not squinting into the sun. Flower beds may be beautiful but they aren't necessarily good additions to a wedding picture. A simple background of cedar trees orbirchorwceping willow make an excellent background. Of course all those beautiful hairdo's and flowing gowns can be spoiled if everyone looks wind- blown. It's important to choose a To rent your wedding formal wear consult with David or Ruth • at Webster's Clothing and Footwear Blyth 523-9709 Canada's Most Trusted Name in Formal Wear. spot that will be sheltered from the wind.

Pre -marriage courses help couples plan for life together BY REV. WILENA G. BROWN Many couples planning marri- age receive a big surprise when they contact their chosen minister to arrange for their wedding. The Christian Church Is so concerned about marriage failure that all ministers are either urged or required to provide sonic marriage preparation. It depends on the denomination and the particular convictions of the minister, priest or pastor as to what is demanded. Outof concern about availability of courses in the arca the Clinton- Scaforth Ministerial Association designed a course to cover the areas which are non -denomina- tional in nature. Two Saturdays last autumn were chosen to do the first course with as many couples as were available at the time. It was a small group but the course proved to be very helpful. On the first Saturday morning we talked about what marriage is, and what we expect from it, with Rev. Cheryl -Ann Stadel- bauer-Sampa as a resource with Sandy and Judy Stuart. In the afternoon we had resource people, Dr. Peter Salsbury and Mrs. Ruth Linton, R.N., dealing with physical aspects. They used films, discus- sion and equipment. On thesecond Saturday we had a full and interesting morning with George Godbolt C.L.V., M.B.A. talking about financial planning and management and Norman Pickett, Goderich lawyer, talking about legal aspects of marriage. In the afternoon we had the Stuarts and Joe and Willi Laurie to lead a discussion about how marriage actually works. It was interesting that all the persons involved were convinced that communication is the most important factor in making marl - age work. Whether in deciding how to spend income or plan a family or deal with in-laws or day -today pressures there was no doubt that the ability to share feelings honestly is the key. So we did some exercises to allow the couples to find out for themselves (in one-to-onediscussion) how well they could share their thoughts and feelings. Research has discovered that marriage preparation really does increase the chances of a marriage continuing to work. This is partly because of skills learned but also partly because couples who do this For the Bride • Wedding Books •Guest Books •Quill Pens • Garters •Ring Bearer Pillows •Cake Knives *Bride & Groom Champagne Glasses •Gifts for the attendants WILSON'S Health & Gift Centre Blyth 523-4440 understand that if something goes wrong there is a good chance to rix it if they wish to do so. The Clinton-Scaforth Course is to be repeated this spring. 1t is done with the co-operation of the Huron Centre for Children and Youth, which participated in the design of the course, and frees Sandy Stuart to give leadership. Rev. Gordon Simmons of the Clinton Anglican Church is arrang- ing the spring event now. Couples interested are asked to contact their local minister, pricstorpastor about it. They will receive informa- tion as soon as planning is complete. Couples are urged to take seriously the fact that clergy concern is not only for a fine wedding but a successful and happy marriage when they recom- mend a preparation course. Many other analysts of marriage are agreed that marriage should be harder to get into in terms of understanding more completely what itsdcmands and stresses are. Itissocasytogctcaughtupin the romantic excitement that it is recommended that the preparation course be ascarlyas possible in the planning. Then, if a couple find they have areas of difficulty to work out there is time to do it. It is the hope of the Ministerial Association and the Huron Centre that happier, sounder, lasting marriages may be the long term result of these courses.

THE CITIZEN; WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 1986. Christian High School site discussed with council BY GARY WALDEN East Wawanosh councillors and representatives of the Wingham and District International Chris- tian High School Society Inc. met _ January 31 to iron out misunder- standings about the state of the school's plans for a school in Hutton Heights subdivision, south of Wingham. Questions had arisen at the last meeting of council "about the situation of the property which does not have direct access to streets or roads. James Campbell speaking for the school, said council should have been aware of what was going on since it had been notified of all meetings. Councillor Fred Meier wanted to know what provisions had been made regarding access to the lot. Mr. Campbell stated that the school has a lease on a Janeway on Lloyd Hutton's property for 20 years that will give access to the lot. Councillor Taylor wondered what would happen after 20 years, if they would be able to lease the property again or would it become again land locked/ Council felt that the school representatives should obtain a severenccfor the laneway,thus avoiding any future problems about access to the school proper- ty. Also that way they would be in accordance with the secondary plan of East Wawanosh and they would have clear title to their property. When council was asked if they would give a severance for the lanoway without afight they said they would. When the repre- sentatives of the school were asked if they would try to get a severance for the lancway to ensure continual access to their property and to comply with the secondary plan they did not comment. However they do plan to start construction on their school as soon as possible and will be applying for a building permit once a site plan has been drawn up and approved by the council. Two companies gave quotations on insurance costs for the township for 1986. Frank Cowan Co. Ltd. quoted a price of $11,065.00 with a $7 million liability limit and with an environmental hazzard clause. O.M.E. insurance quoted a price of S7,995.00with $10 million liability clause but without pollution cover- age and no wrongful dismissal clause, Fred Meier felt that the chance of a costly spill ora lawsuit against the township ovcrpollution from the sanitation site was not likely. Jim Taylor motioned that they accept t he coverage offered by the O.M. E. Even so the cost of insurance for the township increas- ed by 80 per cent from the 54,400 paid last year. The appeal on the assessment of theJ ackson drain was settled to the agreement of all parties involved. The net assessment on Vaughn Toll was reduced by 51,000 with the township paying a sunt of 5500 more towards the costs with the remaining 5500 being paid for by the other landowners who benefit from the drain in proportion to the amou nt of acreage they have drained by it. The tender for a new truck was accepted from Tolton Motors in Bluevalc for 57,345, it being the lowest bid. Jim Snyder approached council on behalf of the Auburn and District Lions Club requesting a donation from council tohclp finish the food booth, and landscaping at the ball park in Auburn. Ray Hallahan motioned that council donate 5750 toward their costs. It was seconded by Don Schultz. A building permit was approved forGerald McDowell toconstruct a sow barn, 34 x 47 next to his existing barn. During the discus- sion thebuildinginspector, Arnold Bruce, asked council if he should be inspecting any buildings that are being renovated. Jim Taylor felt that if they started doing that, they could be liable for any unseen structural flaw in the building and it was felt that it was best to leave inspections of renovations alone and to just worry about new buildings or additions. On the question of whether or not a donation should be given to the Blyth Festival, Fred Meier felt that since council supported them to get started they shouldn't be donating taxpayers money now, 10 years later. OnJan. 10, Wayne Caldwell and council met to discuss resolutions to the secondary plan regarding zoning. The council is drafting a copy which will be circulated to the ratepayers to get their feed back. A final draft of the zoning bylaws will then be drawn up and presented for approval. These zoning' by-laws are a tool by which council can control land use and Mr. Caldwell felt it was necessary for council to proceed with them so as to have control over any disputes or problems in the townships.

Presently a severance can't be granted unless it's for 51 acres which in effect means there can be no severances in the township, even on properties distant from present farming operations or of any farms. Mr. Snell felt that something has to be done to increase the population in the township or else taxes are going to be too high. W z V C q He also noted that in the past few years a number of farms have been sold with no one now fiving in the houses. Before long these houses will probably be razed, further reducing the tax base. He proposed that for every farm sold a severance be granted for the buildings. This suggestion did not meetwith unanimous approval but all councillors agreed something should be done to help keep the population at least stable in the township. •BUTTER YOU UP • CAN.

THE CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 1986. Brussels Bulls rampage over Mt. Brydges BY LOIS McARTER The Bull's were idle on Friday night but were on the road to Mt. Brydges on Saturday night to play the Bulldogs. These two teams had played before Christmas in an excellent game of hockey which ended 1.0 in favour of Brussels, but this game was not to be the same. The Bulls were prepared for a defeat as nine of their regular players were absent but not expecting one quite so severe. Mt. Brydgcs scored the first goal of the game but Brussels' Steve Conners and Tim Fritz combined to tic the game in the next twominutesof the period. Mt. Brydgesadded one more to end the period with a 2.1 lead. Mt. Brydgcs added three more goals in the second period to take a 5-1 lend. Two of those goals were off goal posts and appeared never to have crossed the red line but a lack of goal judges couldn't prove the officials wrong. Mike Smith replaced by Jeff McGavin in nets for the third period but he was beseiged by • black rubber as well and Mt. Brydgcs you nted six more goals for their efforts to win by a resounding 11.1 score. The lack of glass on the side boards of the arena proved an advantage to the home team as they draped the visiting team over them repeatedly. Not a pleasant game to play so close to the play offs. Sunday afternoon had the Jun- ior's travelling over to Seaforth to play the Centcnnaires. The usual interesting game of hockey ensu- ed. Brussels scored the first goal of the game with Tom Newbigging and Rob Cardiff getting credit for the goal with a little help from the home team defence. There was 5:40 left in the period before Seaforth got the tying goal. With a 1:40 left in the period they got their second goal to take a 2-1 lead. The second period had Seaforth come out and score three goals before Brussels got their only goal of the period. Tom Ncwbigging scored on a pass from Kevin McArter for the Bulls. Seaforth added two more goals to end the Mike Bromley finally gets his hat BYRUSTYBLADES Last Wednesday, February5 had the Tceswater novice team come to Blyth for an exhibition game and the home team soundly defeated the visitors 5.0. Blyth opened the scoring in the first period as defenceman Shawn Hakkcrs fed Mike Bromley who quickly put Blyth in the lead. Four more goals were scored in the second period as Blyth put their machine in high gear and dominat- ed the rest of the game. Mike Bromley scored his second goal of the game as, once again, Shawn Hakkcrs made a beautiful pass to Mike who scored another pretty goal. Minutes later Mike recorded his hattrick on a beautiful unassisted effort. Just when you think you've seen all of Mike's moves, he comes up with something more spectacular. Mike broke through theTecswater defence at the bluelinc and skated in alone on the goalie. Mike then proceeded to deke the goalie right out of his pads and slip the puck into the open net. The teeswatcr goalie just shook his head in disbelief as he sat on the ice and tightened his pads. This talented young hockey playerfinallycaptur- ed that elusive hat as one sailed out from among the cheering crowd and onto the ice. Two goals in fourteen seconds finished the scoring for Blyth late in the second period. A picture - perfect goal was scored as centre. man Ryan ehamney won a faccoff deep in the Tecswater zone and passed the puck back to.defence. pian Peter Craig. Peter set up and fired a fast rising wrist shot that deflected off a Tceswater player and into the net. From the ensuing faceoff at centre ice, fho puck once again ended up deep in the Tceswater zone. WingcrsJamesMcNichol and Jonathan Collins worked hard and dug the puck out of the corner to Ryan Chamncy, who dcked around a dcfenceman and put a "sky -shot" into the net. As Ryan skated toward the goal he flipped the puck eight feet straight up in the air and the puck came straight down behind thegoalie and intothc net. The third period was scoreless and thegameended5- 0. Although Blyth completely dominated the game, the Tceswater netminder kept the game close. Blyth goalie Josh Yanchus once again stopped everything that came his way and picked up his second shut -out of the season. Another game puck was deserved by Josh for his puck stopping prowess, but budget restrictions set down by Blyth, Minor Sports made this gesture unreasonable. Playoff time is fast approaching and Blyth has drawn Huron Park in the first round. The first game will beheld on Saturday, Feb.15 at 1:00 p.m. in Huron Park. An exhibition game is planned for Thursday, February 13 in Wingham at six o'clock. period at 7 - 2. After their break Brussels came out stronger keeping the Centen- naives off the scoreboard for the third period. Dave Schmidt on a pass from Murray Dewar let a line drive go from' the blue line which was deflected into the net by Tom Newbigging for Brussels first goal of the period. Kevin McArter scored the last goal unassisted on a hard shot also from the blue line. Thermal scorewas 7- 4 in favour of Seaforth. Midget goalie Steve Coultes played in the nets for the Brussels squad. The Bulls will be back in Seaforth on Friday night for an 8:30 game. Saturday night they will be at home to Clinton for an 8 p.m. game and Sunday afternoon at home to Howick at 2 p.m. to end their league schedule. The team is planning a meet, the date to be Sunday, February 23. One price will include a hockey game at 2 p.m. and a roast beef dinner when the game is over in the auditorium. It will be the first weekend of a round-robin playoff series and the visiting team for that game will be Seaforth. Tickets will be available from any player and at J. R.'s Shake Shop. Plan to attend and give the team your support. MINORHOCKEY The Peewee "A" team continu- ed their playoff series in Mildmny Friday night in another good closr game of hockey.

Steve Fritz assisted by Jamie Nicholson scored the only goal of the second period to give Brussels a 2.1 lead. The same close hockey prevailed in the third period with Jamie Nicholson getting an insur- ance marker from the blue line with two minutes left in the game. Neil Pipe went the distance in the net for the win. Mildmay's only goal was scored by Craig Fortney who has relatives in the Brussels area. This loss eliminated Mild - ay from the O.M.H.A. round of playoffs. The peewee's were in Ripley for the first game of the next series on Friday night.

Blyth selects win title in overtime Aftera number ofyearsof failing to win an "A" championship inlndustrial tournament action, the Blyth Selects came away from the Exeter second annual tourney with the main hardware and the S300 first prize. Blyth had to beat four teams en route to the top of the heap. On Saturday in the first game, Blyth met London Oakridge, who, a year earlier had eliminated the locals from the Exeter tournament. It looked like history would repeat with London leading 4.2 going into the third period. Blyth came out blazing in the third and scored six goals to come away with an 8.5 victory and won the right to meet Exeter Colonials in the "A" round. Blyth played a strong defensive game and humbled the home town Colonials 5.1. This victory sent the Selects into the semi-finals against Hodges Milling from the highly competitive Goderich league. Hodges, who clinched first place in their league on the weekend, were highly favoured to sideline the Blyth squad. Hodges scored first and out hustled Blyth in the early going. Superb goaltending by Pat Cronin kept it close, Larry Howatt tied the score on a pretty set-up from Gary Courtney and Steve Howson. Ken Ritchie scored the eventual winner with an unassisted backhand. Hodges scored one more but Blyth hung on for a hard fought upset of 3.2 over the strong skating Hodges Milling squad. This sent the Blyth team into the "A" finals and a shot at top spot. In the "A" Finals Blyth came up Brussels teams in playoff competition Continued from page 26 second goal came on a scramble in front of the net after goalie Todd Rice had made the initial save but the puck slipped away from him, Ripley scored one good goal in the third period to win the game by a3.1 score. They will be back in Brussels for the second game on Wednesday night at 7 p.m. The third game if necessary will be back in Ripley on Thursday night. BANTAMS The Bantam team continued their best -of -five series in Drayton last Wednesday night -for game three. Drayton scored the only goal of the first period. They also scored two unanswered goals in the second period to take a 3.0 lead in the game. The home team added two more goals in the third before Brussels got their first goal of the game. Bruce J ohnston on a pass from Rodney Nicholson and Steve Wheeler scored Brussels' only goal of the game. The team had a total of five penalties in their first loss of the season. Drayton was back in Brussels on Friday night for the fourth game of the series. Bruce Johnston assist- ed by Mike Fraser and Dean Nicholson scored the first goal of the game, and then assisted Dean Nicholson on the second goal to taken 2.0lead at the end of the first period. Drayton came out to score the first goal of the second period to keep the score within reach. Dean Nicholson assisted by Steve Whee- ler got through the maze of large bodies to add one more goal for Brussels to end the second period at 3 - 1. The third period had equal opportunities for both teams but both goalies did their jobs well. Drayton managed to slip one goal past goalie John Stefflcr but John succeeded in limiting them to only one and giving Brussels the 3-2 victory. This eliminated Drayton from the O.M.H.A. round of playoffs. Brussels is waiting for the winner of the Clinton • Tara series fortheir second round. The Atom team was at home to Clinton on Friday in a close ganie of hockey. Brussels managed to keep the lead on each goal until the final goal which gave Clinton the win in a 4 -3 hockey game. Goal scorers for Brussels were Greg. Clark, Sharie Jacklin and Todd Machan. A Sprout team consisting of six and seven year olds were hosts to the Blyth team on Saturday when the players produced an exciting game of hockey. A 1 •0 hockey game in favour of Brussclsgave the fans some good entertainment. This sprout team was defeated by the same Blyth team 11.1 early in the year so they are to be congratulated for their improve- ment in playing the game.

The oddsmakers again book- ed Blyth as two -goal underdogs to the Goderich Flyers. The Flyers finished second in the Goderich league only one point behind Hodges Milling. The swift Flyers went ahead 1 •0 in the first but Blyth tied the score when Rick Scrimgeour drew the Flyer goalie out and let a backhander go. It was a hard fought contest and Pat Cronin was spectacular again in goal. Bedford went ahead 2. 1 late in the second. Halfway through the third period, Blyth was dealt a major blow when one of their top scorers, Wayne McDougall, was, sent to the showers. The usually mild-mannered sniper took of. fence to a high stick by a Flyer defenceman. A fight ensued and both players were ejected. Things looked bleak for Blyth when sonic strong forechecking resulted In a breakaway for Bedford and a 3. 1 lend over Blyth with just over five minutes remaining In the game.

Mrs. Hart gave a reading on the theme "love" based on I Cor. Ch. 13. The hymn, "immortal Love" was sung followed by a prayer. Mrs. Gordon Engel had the topic from the study "Native People", dealing with education. She read the story of their lives written by two native women which showed how all their life they were made to feel inferior wherever they were. Mrs. Leslie Knight presided for the business when the minutes were read by the secretary Mrs. Jack Knightand 17cards and 15 visits were reported. The roll call was answered with a verse on "love". Mrs. Stuart Stevenson gave a report on the executive meeting she attended In the Scaforth Presbyterian church on J an. 27.

CARDPARTYCANCELLED Owin: to weather conditions the Hall Board card partywas called off for Friday evening, February 7. On Friday, Feb. 14 the Foresters are having a card party: Blyth church news A hearty hymn sing was enjoyed by the members of the Blyth United church on Sunday, led by Mrs. Margaret Kai with Mrs. Shirley Vincent at the piano. This was followed by the junior and intermediate choirs singing "Hosanna" and "IIisJoy HisJoy" led by Mrs. Cheryl Cronin. After the singing of "Fairest Lord Jesus", Mr. Bauman told a story of Why the wrens built their nest in a mail box. He gave each child a picture to colour. Mrs. Joan Clark was the leader. The Junior choir then sang, "Give us laughter, Oh Lord". The scripture lesson was read by Stephen Souch and Shannon Snell. The intermediate choir then sang, ';Let the Hills sing for Joy." Mr. Bauman took as his sermon theme, "God can do anything." He said that God gives power to people so they can be equal to anything that God wants to throw at them. "Don't let things get you down," he said. "Don't ever feel defeated. The answer is to live with God every minute." He stressed that when we get up in the morning we should pray that God will lead us to someone who will need our help that day. He told two stories to illustrate this point. He ended his sermon by telling people not to get all stewed up over a problem but instead just turn it over to God. The service ended with the hymn, "Reign on 0 King eter- nal." Greeters were Dr. Clark and Mrs. Vera Badley.

How can we keep our spiritual temperature up BY REV. VICJAMIESON BRUSSELS-BELGRAVE PRESBYTERIAN In John 15:5 Jesus says: "I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and lin hint, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.' Recently a number of our youth have been moved by the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of Jesus Christ within them, to share their faith in Hint with others. But all of us in all ourChristianchurches need such a boost in spiritual temperature. Such a temperature rise is initiated by the Holy Spirit speaking through the Word of God directly or indirectly through a Christian witha "high fever" or desire to help others to confcss their sins, those things in our lives that separate us from God and mem- bers of His family. The temperature of our spirit rises as we surrender our lives completely to Jesus Christ as our Lord and Saviour. The Holy Spirit will cause us to get rid of whatever we arc doing that docs not reflect to others thatJesus Christ alone is the true God of everyone everywhere. Scripture like Acts 4:12 becomes understood more clearly: "Salva- tion is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved." Our spiritual temperature will remain high only if we spend time daily in prayer, Bible study, and if possible, fellowship with other Christians. Roselind Rinker, a notable writer on prayer, suggests that: (1.) We have a definite quiet place to pray alone; (2.) We put aside everything else at that time and worship the Lord, ourGod. (3.) Our prayers should be spoken as if we were talking to someone close to us so that we can keep our thoughts centered on Jesus Christ as our Lord and Saviour. Bible study enriches our prayers by giving the Lord, our God an opportunity to speak directly through such words or otherwise as He may choose. Whether we are reading through the Bible accord- ing to our own plan or someone else's, it is helpful to make notes of verses and/or to underline those that Christ's Spirit seems to want us to focus upon. Christian fellowship helps us, the branches of the tree of life, Christ alive In Spirit within us, to BUSINESS DIRECTORY B&.G ELECTRIC Plumbing and Heating Brussels, Ont.

He will enable us to bear such fruit orcharactcris- tics as love, joy, peace, long- suffering, etc. mentioned in Gala - tions 5: 22.23.

Auburn, which had been paying a five per cent levy, has had its share reallocated to the three townships with East Wawanosh increasing its share of the levy by one per cent, and Hullett and West Wawanosh increasing by two per cent each. The change will allow Auburn to spend its limited funds for other projects in the village. Auburn residents will continue to maintain the water storage tanks which provide wader in case of a fire in the village. Mr. Walsh also reported on a meeting ofthe fire board with Dave Fields of the Ontario Fire Mar- shall's office in Toronto regarding fears that the Blyth department was operating beyond its legal limits in fighting fires outside the municipality. Mr. Fields explained that a regional official of the Fire Marshall's office who had warned of this possibility had been going strictly by the book. He said that the fire area agreement between Blyth and surrounding townships was near -perfect but suggested it be backed up by a by-law establish- ing the Blyth Fire Department as the official department for the surrounding townships involved.

Blyth Festival looks at future needs, gets council's support Blyth Festival will be conducting a survey to look into its needs for more space for the next 20 years, representatives of the organization told Blyth Council February 4. Marion Doucette, president of the board of directors, Sheila Richards, past president and Katherine .Kaszas, artistic direc- tor, explained the study to council as part of their annual presenta- tion. Ms, Kaszas explained that the Festival has constant problems getting enough space for its operations even though it bought the old Dougherty garage property on Dinsley street east and this year has rented office space on main street. The study will look at possible solutions to meet the growth expected in the short and long-term future, she said. Still, Mrs. Richards pointed out, the Festival is concerned about not becoming too big. A recent visit to Niargara-on-the-Lake by members of the board made them award that they never want to make the theatre so big that it shapes the whole community around it, she said. She deplored the way Niagara had been turned into a town dominated by tourism. "We're glad to be part of the village. We don't want to overtake it," she said. Ms, Kaszas noted that the Festival had toured its shows farther than ever this year taking Garrison's Garage across southern Ontario, then to New Brunswick and currently into Northern On- tario and then on to Winnipeg (in co-operation with James Roy's Manitoba Theatre Centre). Tour- ing would be limited in future however because "Although we're functioning liken big theatre we're still a small theatre in the number of people running it." Too much energy could be used in touring so that the main summer season would suffer, she explained. She outlined some of the plans for the Festival's 12th season which will open June 20 with a production of Another Season's Promise, a play on the current crisis on farming in Huron County and Canada in general. The play is co -written by Anne Chislett (who wrote the award-winning Quiet in the Land soon to open in New York) Affirmative action studied by bd. BY RHEA HAMILTON•SEEGER Carol Simons had been busy researching and compiling data about the inequalities and equali- ties in our school system. Simons was hired by the Huron County Board of Education in September 1985 to analyze and review employment policies and procedures, for women employees and develop an action plan with goals and timetables, aimed at equality of employment. Simons presented her report to the board last Monday in Clinton. She has been compiling data and is now ready to begin the analysis. Although she had no definite figuresfortheboardshedid say the county was behind in the elemen- tary level and while there were qualified women for more respons- ible positions there was a question about why they had not made the move ahead themselves. A questionnaire is being circula- ted among academic staff which will offer pool of qualified people for positions in the future. and Keith Roulston, Guest at the opening night dinner will be writer and broadcaster Peter Growski. Mrs. Richards outlined results of a survey conducted by the University of Waterloo last sum- mer that looked at the impact of the um•mcrthatlookedattheimpactofthe Stratford, Shaw and Blyth festivals on their communities. The average ticket buyer coming to the Blyth festival spends S8,79 on top of his ticket cost, she said which means 5260,000 is pumped into the local economy besides the money spent by the Festival itself in local services and salaries. With ticket prices that his year will be S8 on weeknights and 510 on weekends the Festival attracts people with lower incomes that aren't able to attend more expensive theatres. The survey found the average family income of a Stratford Festival ticketbuyer was 580,000 compared to 530,000 for Blyth. She thanked the council for their financial support in the past, saying it helps to convince other government bodies they support! the theatre when they see strong support from the local level. Reeve Albert Wasson congratu- lated the theatre on a "fantastic job" and said he hoped the good rapport between the Festival and the village would continue in the future. Council agreed to write a letter pledging long-term access to Memorial Hall for the Festival in support of the Festival's applica- tion for SO percent government funding for the feasibility study. Mrs. Richards said'she under- stood the council may be facing some maintenance expenses on Memorial Hall (a new roof may be needed) and said the Festival would help out with the costs. Later council agreed to a grant of 51300 to the Festival for 1986, up 5100 from last year. PIZZA PIZZA PIZZA THURS., FRI., SAT. 5 P.M.-12A.M.
