Museum must pay, says board The Midland parks board is determined to - collect the rent it says Huronia Museum owes it At its Feb. 1 meeting, the parks board said the museum's 1988 rent of $425 has not been paid. Board member Mac McAllen could not see a reason for the non-payment. The museum receives government grants. It Sailors ask for pavement The 135-member Midland Bay Sailing Club has asked the Midland parks board for help. The unpaved road which users of the sailing club, and of adjacent Pete Petterson Park, must use, often is rough. More dredging in the harbor in front of the sail- ing club should be done, club representatives John Leitch and Commodore Colin Whiteside explained. The parks' board answered that it would talk to the public works committee about maintenance of the road. A complication is that the road belongs to CN Rail. The property it leads to belongs to the town. The board also sug- gested the sailing club talk to the harbor com- mittee about the possibili- ty of a federal grant. Ninety boats sail out of the Midland Bay Sailing Club. The club offers sail training classes for children and adults. ap Reuben Lorne Adamson, Midland The funeral of Russell Street, Midland resident Reuben Lorne Adamson was held Jan. 9 in Nicholls Funeral Home.
