The Citizen, 1986-05-07, Page 1Brussels Lions to build new wading pool after closed vote Following a lengthy closed -door meeting Brussels council approv- ed a Brussels Lions Club proposal for a new wading pool in a vote of questionable legality. Foliowing a presentation by Neil McDonald, Paul Mutter and Dale Newman of the Lions Club on the club'sdcsirc to build a new wading pool at the back of the lot housing the new swimming pool and use the locationof the present wading pool for reinstallation of playground equipment which was moved to make way for the swimming pool, council moved togo into "commit- tee of the whole" for discussion. Five spectators, the press and even new clerk -treasurer Hugh Hanly spent the next 50 minutes on the street outside the office while council discussed this issue. The vote (which was split with councillors Elizabeth Graber and ' Dave Boynton in favour and councillors Gordon Workman and Malcolm Jacobs opposed, with Reeve Hank Ten Pas voting in favour to break the tie) was conducted in the closed session of the meeting and never confirmed in open council meeting. Under parliamentary rules all votes must be taken in public although discussion can take place out of the public view in committee of the whole. During the Lions' presentation, Mr. Mutter said that the new pool, with a proposed diameter of 18 feet, is not as large as the old wading pool but felt that more people would be graduating to the main swimming pool at a younger age so demand for the wading pool would not be as large as when it was the only public pool in town. "From our point of view it's not the necessity of a new wading pool as much as the necessity of putting the playground equipment back," Mr. Mutter said. Mr. McDonald said the Lions had been getting many questions as to when the playground equipment was going to be put backup and felt it should be installed as soon as possible. The water lines for the new swimming pool will go under the present wading pool so if it was to be kept in use, it would have to be repaired at unknown cost. Under the Lions proposal, coun- cil would provide $1500 financing to the project which combines the installation of the new pool and reinstallation of the playground equipment. The Lions Club would donate S1500 in labour to take out the old pool and reinstall the playground equipment and the council's shote of the cost could then be recovered in grants from the Ontario Neighbourhood Im- provement Project. Councillor Workman wondered if there migh t be problems with the design of the new pool but Mr. McDonald said the design had been done by Maitland Engineer- ing Services of Wingham and they felt it was a good one. The Lions pointed out an added benefit of the new wading pool is that it will use the same filtration and heating equipment that the main pool does so that the water will be warmer and will be chlorinated. The Lions said they felt the playground equipment was best situated at the front of the pool complex where children using it could be easily seen by parents attending ball games at the ball park next door. Councillor Workman asked the Lions if they didn't agree that they Continued on page 2 Serving Brussels, Blyth, Auburn, Belgrave, Ethel, Londesborough, Walton and surrounding townships. VOL.2 NO. 19 WEDNESDAY, 'MAY 7, 1986. 40 Blyth money gets no takers Sometimes it's hard even giving money away, one Blyth organiza- tion found out. • The Blyth Agricultural Society, faced with either making its account active or losing the money into the internal workings of the banking system, decided it would give away the remainder of its funds to an organization with a project or projects in mind that carry out the mandate of the agricultural society: the benefit of agriculture in the Blyth area. So far, two weeks after the Society put out an advertisement calling for suggestions, none has come forward. The Society did make one award to the Blyth Horticulture Society for its work in the community but the organiza- tion could only take a small amount of money without affecting its government grants. So the offer -remains open until the May 10 deadline for suggestions, '.The money is all that remains of the Agricultural Society. The last, Blyth Fall Fair was held in 1972. The following year, with the Society in debt, the directors and other volunteers organized fund- raising events. The money raised has been sitting in a bank account collecting interest since then, Any organization with a propo- sal for the use of the money should contact MildredAmcnt, Adrian Vos or Murray Scott.

Brussels auditor makes lengthy recommendations for change The accounting bill for Brussels Village Council isstill not complete but will be over $14,000 for work dont until the end of March, about double the normal amount, auditor Nancy Exel of Spicer MacGillivray, Chartered Accountants told village council Monday night. The work done includes the normal audit for 1985 year end plus the audit undertaken due to the change in clerk -treasurer, so act - unify includes 15 months. Mrs. Exel said the cost of the audit was increased because the former clerk -treasurer who did the books was not there to help. "It's very hard to interpret somebody else's working papers," she said. Every bookkeeper has a different way of doing things, she said. Mrs. Exel also presented a lengthy letter recommending changes in the village's system of doing business. There were errors in accounting last year that could cause problems with getting the final payments of Ontario Neighbourhood Improve- ment Project grants because some amounts for work done in the mobile home park had been mistakenly sent in for subsidy from the Ministry of Transport and Communications when it wasn't eligible. A better system of keeping track of bills for the ONIP grants needed to be instituted, she said because of such mix ups. There was also an error in calculation of the millrate for the. county levy last year which means the council will have to increase the mlllrate more than usual this year to recover that amount. Council last year had to pay out more to the county than it received from the county mill rate. She recommended council have a firm policy on penalties and interest charges on tax arrears saying that anythinglatewilibe penalized. The policy had been to leave it to the discretion of the village office employees as to whether or not to levy the charge. This leaves the employees open to a charge of favouritism, she said. (Council had agreed to a strict" policy on penalties at an earlier meeting but had not approved it by motion.) Mrs. Exel said she had strong reservations about council's recently -adopted policy of allow- ing discounts on prepayment of taxes. She said other municipali- ties had discovered it was more.,; trouble than it was worth and ' recommended council review the policy before implementing it with the June installment of taxes. • Councillor Gordon Workman said the policy had already been advertised and: asked how the council could change its mind now; Mrs. Exel said perhaps council could rcadvcrtise that the policy' • had been changed. At the conclusion of her lengthy report councillor Workman said it was "a very disappointing (report) to get if he (the former clerk) was Continued on page 13 Friends called al the home of Mrs. inez Macdonald of Blyth last Tuesday, April 29 to celebrate her 101st birthday and were served tea and birthday cake.

Councillor Boynton said Mr. Pennington was trying to keep the boulevard in good shape andattractive looking and he could understand his concern with dam- agedone toitbut he wasn't sure council had any answer. A suggestion had been made to stake off the boulevard but some present questioned the council's liability in such a matter if one of the stakes did damage to a car because they were on village property. It was pointed out that the village may be in the sante doubtful position with other pro- perties in town where people have erected stakes to protect the boulevard in front of their homes from marading traffic.

The problem of Mr. Jutzi's dog which Mr. Pennington claims is too . noisy also got time from village discussion, Councillor Elizabeth Graber pointed out that without the anti -noise by-law being accepted (it is still in early draft form) the council couldn't take action. Coun- cillorJacobs wondered why the same laws that govern disturbing the peace for humans couldn't be applied in this case. The legality of that approach will also be explor- ed. Ina side issue that was resolved, council agreed that whether Gor. don Workman's fence in the stone neighbourhood is on town property or not, it could remain where it was and Mr. Workman could proceed with repairs to the fence. Mr, Workman, declaring conflict of interest, had taken no part in the conversation except to say Ite would move the fence if that is what council desired. A letter detailing council's approval of the fence remaining where itiswill be sent to Mr. Workman. zFN 0) r a C r•OroCoa.

Soil conservation week brings problems to light BY JANE SADLER RICHARDS S OiL CONSERVATION ADVISOR ONTARIO MINISTRY OF AGRICULTURE AND FOOD This is National Soil Conserve. tion Week. Saving our soils is indeed a countrywide concern. In the last few years a lot has been written in Ontario about our problems with soil erosion and compaction. Those farming in the prairie provinces, also have a major problem with salinization. Following, is an excerpt from a 1985 Agriculture Canada publica- 4 tion that outlincswhat soil saliniza- tion is and how it occurs. During National Soil Conservation Week, let's open our minds to include a wider view of the soil degradation problem. National solutions can only come through understanding and communication. "Soil salinization can be a natural process (primary salinity; or it can be induced (secondary salinity) through land uses such as irrigation, or practices that disrupt natural ground -water regimes. Primary salinity is normal)), asso- ciated with areas affected by major Tips on anhydrous ammonia safety 1. Your ammonia dealer should explain the step-by-step use of anhydrous equipment before you use it. 2. Use the protective gear (rubber gloves and non -vented goggles) whenever you are work- ingon the equipment, transferring anhydrous, hooking up or connect- ing hoses, etc. 3. Nurse tanks and applicators mustcarrycontaincrs fllledwith an ample supply of fresh water. 4. Always stand on the upwind side of transfer operations. 5. The filler hose should only be carried by the valve body • never by the valve handle. 6. Hoses and fittings should be fret from dust and loose rust. 7. Never fill an ammonia tank beyond 85 percent of its capacity. 8. Bleeder valves should be closed before opening valves for filling, 9. Coupling valves must always be bled before disconnection. 10. Hand tighten fittings or transfer lines - do not use wrenches. 11. Nurse tank wheels should always be blocked. 12. Transfer hose should be stored in a proper manner to avoid kinking, damage from vehicles, or dragging on the ground. 13. Use protective covers to keep fittings clean. 14. If you believe ammonia equipment is defective, do not attempt to repair it yourself. Notify the equipment supplier. 15. Never weld on or near the nurse tank. 16. Never leave the transfer operation unattended. 17. Never place your head or body in direct line with valve openings and fittings- particularly safety relief valves. 18.

Because they represent a natural condition, however, these soils are not discussed further, "The spread of secondary salin- . ity is a cause for great concern. Secondary salinity occurs when salts become highly concentrated at or near the soil surface. The problem occurs primarily in the Prairie provinces and is frequently associated with inappropriate land use practices. "The most widely encountered form of secondary salinity is a condition known as 'saline seep'. Precipitation In excess of that lost by evapotranspiration infiltrates the soil, absorbing salts and other soluble nutrients into solution. Ultimately, the water finds its way back to the soil surface, usually in adjacent depressions, where the salts are precipitated as the water evaporates. Any land manage- ment technique, such as summer - fallowing, which raises the mois• turesupply in upper slope posi• tions to levels exceeding that utilized by vegetation, will escalate the process.

Ball season is even more hectic than hockey season because there arc teams active not just in Blyth, Brussels and Bclgravc but also in most of the other centres in our coverage area as well. Naturally we cannot devote the entire paper to sports socovcragcof individual teams must be kept brief but we would appreciate receiving reports that give sonic of the flavour of the game aswell as the mere statistics. Remember, names make news. We hope that people in all the communities covered will co-oper- ate to make sure all teams get their fairshare of attention in the pages of The Citizen.

"Starting today, through Octo- ber, a senior meteorologist at the Toronto forecast office will be dedicated to observing and fore- casting conditions that could lead to severe weather and then issuing the appropriate watches and warn- ings." added Mr. McMillan.

It is an honor and distinct privilege to serve as chairman for this year's events. Because of past chairman Bob Camp- bell's enthusiasm and deter- mination during the first years of Klompen Feest, it has been a pleasure to work with a very dedicated and efficient organization. The committee chairpersons and their respective commit- tees have worked hard to put together a weekend program that we hope and trust will be enjoyed by all. It is very gratifying to feel the community spirit that has developed since the first years of Klompen Feest. Many people have become involved and con- tributed much to the success of our festival. We are fortunate to have some very gifted people who have made Huron County their home and have offered their time and talent in many different ways.

SOUTH EXETER 235.0640 Page 12 "There's only one old country • While Herman Van Baaren and his wife Anne are well- established Canadians, there will always be a part of them which will belong to their native Holland. "Holland is still my home," declares Ann Van Baaren. "There's only one old country." On April 29, 1949, with four small children, two suitcases and the clothes on their backs, they boarded a crowded army boat bound for Quebec. Prior to immigrating, they had ab- solutely no knowledge of Canada - only that it was a country with opportunity - and an attractive escape from the grinding poverty of post-war Holland. Thirty-seven years later, the Clinton area couple has retired from farming, leaving the operation to their son John. Return to Holland reveals phenomenal change They've also raised a family of eight in Canada. To satisfy their yearning for the old country, the couple have travelled back to their native Giessendam, a southern Holland town comparable in size to Goderich, on six occas sions to visit relatives. In fact, Mrs. Van Baaren was the win- ner of the Klompen Feest KLM draw for a trip to Holland in 1983. Phenomenal Change They've found the change in the small European country has been phenomenal since their departure on April 29, 1949. They find the country is not as nice as it once was. The slow, farming based society has given way to the hustle and bustle of urban life. "When we ' left in 1949 everyone only had bicycles, now everyone has cars. Everything is so expensive there now. It would be so hard to buy a house there," said Mrs. Van Baaren. "Homesick" But, the past is still alive in their memory - especially the hardships and uncertainty of coming to Canada. What they recall most about the upheaval in their lives after the immigra- tion to Canada was the all per- vasive feeling of homesickness, loneliness and isolation they en- dured at the time.

We couldn't speak the language and we felt like we were really cut off from people. "I have always felt homesick. It took me a long time before I was over it. But, Holland is still home. It doesn't bother my kids because they've always lived here. But, the first years were very tough," However, when faced with the prospect of staying in Holland, a country devastated by war, they chose to leave the country to build a new life in Canada. "Holland was very poor dur- ing the war. You couldn't get proper clothes and food was very scarce.

Giessendam, however, was relatively untouched by the ravages of war. For the most part, the German army limited their activities to the larger centres of Rotterdam, Amsterdam and Arnem, she said. "We didn't have much to do with the war. We did see a lot of Germans because they went through the village to get to the front. For a couple of nights we had to give up our rooms to them. Otherwise, we had no trouble. We were lucky because Herman worked on a farm so he brought home leftover milk and cheese and everything," she said.

I've never heard of it,"' said Mrs. Van Baaren. Six months later and after frequent visits to the immigra- tion office in Den Haig, they were ready to make the overseas trip to Canada. As part of the condition of im- migration, Mr. Van Baaren was required to be sponsored by a farmer and work on his farm for a year.

One floor of the boat was the living quarters with the men sleeping at one end of the boat while the women and children slept at the other end on three- storey bunkbeds. "We had no water to wash ourselves or the kids. There was lots of food, but everyone was so seasick, they weren't hungry anyway. It was just ter- rible," said Mr. Van Baaren. Upon landing in Quebec, the French Canadians, who Mrs. Van Baaren described as being "ignorant" to the Dutch im- migrants, put them into groups according to their destination displayed on a tag. The Van Baaren's tag said "Six - Forest." They then boarded a train for Toronto and transferred to another train to meet their sponsor, Iver Weaver, in Forest, Ontario. After working on the farm for 13 months at a salary of $75 per month, Mr. Van Baaren even- tually moved his family to Sar- nia where he worked on a con- struction crew, the Union Gas Company and in a factory mak- ing office furniture. In' 1956, they left Sarnia to begin farming in Hullett Township where they've lived ever since. The hardest aspect of coping with Canadian life was the language barrier, says Mrs. Van Baaren, which resulted in a feeling of isolation from other people. The couple picked up the language by listening to their children who were atten- ding school. She also attended school in Sarnia for six months to learn the language.

Canadian Climate The Canadian climate was not exactly what the Van Baaren's had anticipated, either. In fact, had they known about the harsh Canadian winters before immigrating, it's doubtful they would have come at all, says Mr. Van Baaren. "They (the Holland immigra- tion officials) never told us there was so much snow. They told us there was wide open spaces and lots of opportunity, but they never told us about the snow. "If they had of told us about the snow, most would never have came to Canada," said Mr. Van Baaren.

Anne Bottema, her husband 13111, their three-year-old son Isaac and their seven -month- old daughter Frances, journeyed to Canada from their homeland of Holland in 1952. They found the transition dif- ficult but have no regrets. "It isn't easy to go and change your life. I might not have done it had I known what it was going to be like, but we're here and we're glad to be here," said Mrs. Bottema of Clinton. Mrs, Bottema was born in Friesland, Holland and was one of 12 children. One sister had moved to Canada four years earlier and another sister had been in Canada for .one year before the Bottemas made the journey. The family left their homeland because there wasn't enough work for Mr. Bottema as a baker. "It was a little town and it was so full. They already had seven bakers," explained Mrs. Bottema. "Bill said it doesn't matter what kind of job he got (in Canada) as long as he could make a living." The Bottemas boarded a boat in Holland and docked in Halifax, Nova Scotia nine days later - a journey Mrs. Bottema did not enjoy. "I was so sea -sick. I sure wouldn't do it over," she said. From Halifax, they travelled by train to London where they were met by Mrs, Bottema's brother-in-law who had spon- sored them. The couple brought many of their belongs with them, in- cluding clothing and furniture. Much of the furniture they brought with them can still be found in their home. Mrs. Bottema's sisters were living in the Wyoming area so the Bottemas first settled. in that area so they could be near familiar faces. They then mov- ed to the country, just outside Petrolia. Six months after settling in Canada, the Bottemas added a new family member, Betty. The Bottema's next move was to Thedford where Mr. Bot- tema rented a bakery and con - Turn to page 23 BEST WISHES TO CLINTON "Serving Canadian Agriculture for over Fifty Years" GRAIN MERCHANTS CARGILL GRAIN COMPANY LIMITED BOX 26, WILLOWDALE, ONTARIO 1107.3799 YONOE EEREEE M2N 557 TORONTO (416) 226.4230 KITCHENER (319) 378.9191 TELEX 06966312 Farm for keeps?

Mrs..Bot- tema helped her husband, do- ing a little baking and packing cookies. In. 1955, the couples fourth and final child, Keith, arrived. After a short period of time, the family once again packed their bags and moved to Kippen where they lived for one year. Then, in 1956, they made their final move which brought them to Clinton. Mr. Bottema continued to make cookies and delivered them to their destination but soon got a job with the air force. Lifestyle Change For Mrs. Bottema, the change of lifestyles was not easy at first.

One thing that surprised Mrs. Bottema when she first came over was the cost of living. "Everything was so cheap here," she said. "The cost of living wasn't expensive but we didn't make much money when we first came over." Mrs. Bottema has been back to Holland to visit her family twice and Bill has been back twice. They also have many relatives who come to Canada to visit. On the whole, Mrs. Bottema is glad she made the long trip to Canada. "I like it here in Canada.

William of Orange was the first Dutch "monarch" or Stadholder of the House of Orange 1558. He led a revolt against Spanish rule in Holland.

In Naam van Oranje celebrates the recapture of the stronghold, Den Briel, from the Spaniards in 1572 by the Watergeuzen (Waterbeggars). Lumey, by exaggerating the size of the force on the fleet by about 10 times to 5000, managed to demoralize the enemy, and little resistance was en- countered once the gate was stormed.

Lechowia, the Polish Canadian Folk Dance Company, will be bringing their show to Klompen Feest. The group, which derives its name from the legendary Polish figure Lech, who was given credit for founding Poland, has been together since July 12, 1977. They made their dancing debut at a Christmas Show at Toronto's Sheraton Centre in 1977. With the growing popularity of Lechowia, they began travelling throughout Canada, and entertained audiences all over Ontario, as well as representing Ontario's Polish Community at festivals in Quebec, Alberta and the United States. f2-7) HURON RIDGE *ACRES, At Toronto's annual Metro In- ternational Caravan, the dancers, who were brought together as individuals in- terested in discovering their Polish heritage, made a major impact. In fact they made such an im- pact that they walked away with a number of Caravan awards. These included the Best Musical Theatre Awards in 1982, 1983 and 1985 for th Krakow pavilion, and Costume Awards in 1982 and 1984. In the summer of 1980, Lechowia travelled to Poland to participate in the Fifth World Folk Festival. While there they received the Host City's Award of Merit for artistic excellence. They returned to the Festival in 1983, and the Polish press called theirperformance at the final concert "one of the highlights of the Festival," Lechowia even had the pleasure to perform for Pope John Paul II during his visit to Canada in 1984. The ensemble, of singers, dancers and musicians is cur- rently over 100 members strong, and their shows consist of a number of different musical arrangements. These include the energetic dances from Lublin, the in- tricate footwork and "white voice" singing of the high Tatra mountains, a theatrical presen- tation of the attack of Krakow by Mongol Hordes, and a varie- ty cabaret depicting Warsaw's street life during the "gay nineties." 0;b9(othpkoWACCovo 1 CLIP THIS COUPON AND SAVE This Mother's Day give 0/ aGiftof *Hanging Baskets *Potted Planters full of OFF beautiful Flowering Plants Thle coupon expires May 11, 1986 Turn to page 33 HURON RIDGE ACRES, �luzon eRid9e (Aczes Watch for our signs on Hwy. 21, South of Bayfield & Hwy. 84 West of Zurich OPEN: Mon.•Frl. 9.9; Sat, 9.5 During May: Sunday 1:30.5 DAVID STECKLE AND FAMILY R,R, 2 PHONE ZURICH, ONTARIO (519) 565.2122 Pogo 31 1986 THUNDERBIRD ELAN 1986 TEMPO GL SEDAN 4 DOOR 1986 BRONCO WAGON"-'" !ter_ OE�O ,.,0.114 ORIGINAL: ORIGINAL: 620,035.

The front page of the Clinton News -Record carried the headline "Dutch Festival to be held." The story said a conunittec of 18 arca people were planning events which would draw and entertain crowds on the occa- sion which was to be held in May of 1981. Well, the committee reached its goal in 1981 and has con- tinued to provide an exciting and entertaining celebration. The idea to hold the annual event was born in the minds of members of the Clinton Business Association. The original committee executive consisted of chairman Bob Campbell; vice chairman Ralph Schuurman; treasurer Peter Dainsina; secretary, Else de Groot; parade co- ordinator, Ken Wood; conces- sion booth co-ordinator, Jack Roorda; ways and means chairman, Clarence Denomme; barbecue co- ordinator, Bill Fleming. The chairman of the 1986 festival is Clarence Denomme and the past chairman is Bob Campbell. '1'hc secretary is Else de Groot; treasurer, John Kassies Sr.; concession booth co- ordinator, Grace Kassies; ways and means committee, Margaret Sloman, Nellie Dykstra and Marg Allan; barbecue co-ordinator, Bill Fleming; parade co-ordinator, Dr. Ken Wood; entertainment co-ordinator, Else de Groot; decorations, Frank Van Altena; arena decorations, Mary Garon; bed and breakfast, Comic Haak. l�U�1', hV..

A few weeks prior to Klompen Feest, Clinton's main streets are decorated with huge wooden shoes and windmill replicas, attempting to get residents and visitors into the Klompen Feest spirit. For the better part of the year, many lawns in the area are also decorated with miniature windmills, remin- ding their owners of a past lifestyle.

By Shelley McPhee-Haist In part the Klompen Feest celebrations help raise funds for the Clinton Public Hospital (CPH). This year CPH is em- barking on a major fund raising campaign to help finance a new obstetrics wing and to upgrade the present chronic care unit. The fund raising goal has been set at $350,000. The Dutch -Canadian connec- tion with the local hospital's maternity ward began on Oc- tober 21, 1948. Klaas Harkema, son of Sam and Tina Harkema, was the first baby of Dutch immigrants to be born at CPH. It was a proud moment for the new Canadian family, the hospital staff and the old doctor from Auburn who helped deliver the baby boy. Mrs. Harkema remembers the day well, "My neighbor called the doctor. The doctor came and took me to the hospital:" Communication between the doctor and patient was limited because of language barriers, but as Mrs. Harkema recalls, "He shook his head. I shook my head and we understood each other." Klaas was Mrs. Harkema's sixth child, her first to -be born in a hospital. She recalls that the hospital care was excellent. A Dutch woman was even call- ed in to visit with the new mother. Three days after Klaas' birth Mr. Harkema came to see his new son. The father had been unable to come to the hospital any sooner because he had no transportation. The Harkerita family lived between Auburn and Blyth on County Road 25. Life was hard for the new Klaus Harkema, son of Sang and Tina Harkema was the first baby of Dutch parentage to be horn at Clinton Public Pogo 39 from the isolation and loneliness of living in a new land. They were one of the first Dutch immigrant families to settle in this area. At the time the only other Dutch people liv- ing in the area were the Burumas in Goderich Township. Mrs. Harkema remembers, "Sometimes I had tears in my eyes. I wanted someone to come and see my new baby." Mr. and Mrs. Harkema learn- ed to speak English from their children who attended the local school. At that time there was no Dutch church in the community as there is today in Clinton. The Harkemas travelled with their neighbors to the Sunday morn- ing services at the Presbyterian church in Clinton. Klaas was baptized there when he was two months old. Still, the loneliness plagued the family and in 1951 they moved to the United States. "We were used to Canada and we liked it here, but we had relatives in the United States," Mrs. Harkema noted. Hospital on October 21, 1948. With savings of $1,200 they bought a half ton pick-up truck. The Harkemas and their six children crowded into the small truck cab to make the journey to Michigan. All the family's worldly possessions were stored in the back of the truck. And Mrs. Harkema was preg- nant again, six months. Life in the new country was difficult, beginning with a frightening confrontation at the border. Mr. Harkema remembers that he was very nervous at the border. The language dif- ferences between him and the border guard led to a Turn to page do • Canadian family. They had no car, no telephone, no electricity and no running water in their home. And money was scarce. Two weeks before Klaas' birth Mr. Harkema learned that his employer, Major Youngblut, had no more work for his hired man. Mr. Harkema lost his $75 a month job as a farm hand, however, he soon secured work with Frank Bainton at his Blyth tannery. "I made a dollar an hour and I thought that was pretty good." Still, the family suffered Pogo 40 The birth of a new generation. .. • from page 3 9 misunderstanding. "I was nervous," Mr. Harkema noted, "I understood the border guard to say go, but he said go around. I went through and had five guys poin- ting guns at me." When the Harkemas arriv- ed in Michigan they spent a month with relatives. "No one wanted to rent a house to such a big family as ours. Often we thought of pack- ing up the truck and coming home." By September of that year they found a home and Mr. Harkema was working 10 hours a day, for 75 cents an hour, trimming celery crops in the field. "I thought, what am I doing in America. The people weren't as friendly as Canadians." However in November of that i rkenia same year he secured a better job, with the Chesapeake -Ohio Railway Line. Itmarked the beginning of a career that would last 30 years. Today Mr. and Mrs. Harkema are retired and live in Byron Centre, Micjigan. They enjoy the comforts of a good life, a 46 year marriage, the company of their children who live close by, as well as 23 grandchildren and one great grandchild. The Harkemas enjoy yearly vacations to Canada, to visit with relatives in Ontario, Gary and Cory Haak of Hullett Township. The journey from Michigan to Ontario is much easier now as the Harkemas travel in the comfort of a new van. They look forward to their yearly visits to this area, and they have fond memories of their life here more than 35 years ago, but as far as returning on a more per- manent basis they clearly state, "we'll never move again."
