K. and our In- terested Citizen, as they call theMselves Ile-vox go to the arena or wading pool or they would Itnowe more about what they are talking .about.' At least the curling club pays its way and also the kids, which is more than can be', said for some of the older sports in this' town. Anybody can find fault, hut most of the ones that do never spent a nickel on running a ball club or hockey Club, or on any other organization, They should try it sometime. The Brussels, Morris and Grey Recreationel Committee have tried to give recreation to every- body, skating, hockey, curling, figure skating, broom ball, bad- minton, and I am sure would like to have roller skating but roller skates are very expensive and to buy 200 pair at this time, In our financial position, was not in the best interests. In the summer the park with its flood lights has given more recreation than any park in West- ern. Ontario which should be of some benefit, to the town and the Price of admission is right, So let's be a Town Booster not a knocker. Chairman, Brussels, Morris and Grey.
