NEW LOOK FOR THE SCHOOL
by Tina Burkholder and
Kimberley Ferguson
On Tuesday, November 17, two
strange men in white uniforms
arrived at Blyth Public School.
They turned out to be Doug Jones
and Doug Kyle, two painters from
the Huron County Board of
Education in Clinton. They have a
shop at the Clinton High School
where they have worked for 6
years.
They came to paint the school
hallways off-white. The hallways
haven’t been painted since the
school was built in 1966.
The painters said it should be 2
or 3 weeks before the job is done.

All the students are looking
forward to Wednesday, November
25. Why? Notonly will there be
Parent and Teacher Interviews,
but the children will receive their
first term report card on that day.
For the last few weeks pupils
have been “slaving” over their
desks, studying for tests which
determine their final marks.
We wish all of the students good
fortune on their reports. The
students all deserve a holiday on
Wednesday.

and 8 room to talk to the students
about her interest in stained glass.
She helped each student prepare a
pattern from which they would
make their own stained glass
design.
For the next two days, students
went in groups of two or three to
Mrs. Yanchus’ workshop.
The first thing they did was
choose their selection of glass.
Next, they cut and glued their
pattern on their selected glass.
After this, they cut their glass and
used a grinder to smooth the edges
of each piece. After they smoothed
their glass, they wrapped the sides
in copper tape. Next they heated up
the soldering iron and soldered the
edges which made a silvery border.
Finally they cooled the hot solder
with cold water.
Each student returned to school
with his or her own stained glass
creation to take home and hang in a
window. All the students from
grades 7 and 8 would like to thank
her for taking up her time to share
her talents and experiences with
us.

On Nov. 20, students from
grades 7-8 at Blyth Public School
invited the grade 7-8 students from
Hullett Central for a dance in the

Neither sleet nor hail nor dark of night could prevent the Brussels Hotel from opening on time last Friday
afternoon, although the beginnings of the season’s first blizzard made the ceremony uncomfortable for
the many local people who attended the long-awaited event. Brussels Reeve Gordon Workman did the
honour of cutting the ribbon to declare the facility officially open, while co-owners Gerry White and June
Warwick held up the ribbon. The hotel hosted capacity crowds throughout the weekend.
Blyth concerned over leaf disposal
Blyth Village Council discussed
a complaint about the burning of
leaves in the village at its meeting
Nov. 10 but appeared split on
whether or not to do something to
stop the practice.
Helen Grubb, village clerk-trea-
surer, told council there had been a
complaint about leaf burning with
particular concern to the safety of
children on Halloween night. The
complainant was concerned about
the piles of embers left from large
leaf fires and the possibility they
could burn youngsters or set their
costumes on fire.
There is no by-law to stop leaf
burning but, Councillor Bill Mann
ing said after all the streets have
been paved, council for some years
published a notice to ask people not
to burn leaves. When leaves are
burned on the pavement it harms
the asphalt.

There are a lot of unwritten laws
that have been left to the honour
system, Reeve Albert Wasson
said, but if council did pass a bylaw
and enforced it, it would mean a lot
more leaves to be picked up. “It’s
quite an undertaking if you stop
and think about it,” he said.
Councillor Bill Howson said that
a young local girl recently ended up
in hospital with respiratory pro
blems from the burning of leaves.
It was pointed out that it was
aboutas easy to bag leaves as to
burn them but Reeve Wasson
pointed out that means extra work
for town employees to pick up the
bags. John Rinn, town works
employee said that the town
garbage collector took three truck
loads of bagged leaves to the
dump. There, under Ministry of
Environment rules, they could

burn the leaves but had to empty
them out of the plastic bags first.
Before council considers any
by-law prohibiting the burning of
leaves, Reeve Wasson said, “we
should be giving more considera
tion to what we’re going to do
instead.
The leaf-burning issue brought
up the general problem of the
landfill site and the problem of
gettingpeopleto separate their
burnable garbage from their non-
burnable garbage. “We’re going
to have a real problem at the
landfill site unless we get more into
the burnable pile,” Reeve Wasson
said.
“We’re already in trouble,”
Councillor Howsonsaid, noting
they are running out of space at the
Blyth-Hullett waste disposal site
already.
