Steve Webber: "/ plan on getting to most of the sports events." We asked around to see-if people were planning to attend the Schreiber Winter Carnival. Terracé Bay-Schreiber News, Wednesday, March 13, 1985, page 3 Debbie Birch: "/'m going to try to get to the road hockey tournament."' Brenda Speziale: "/ plan on going, if I can get any time off." A visit with industrial relations By KELLEY ANN CHESLEY Since I have taken on the job of Editor for the Ter- race Bay Schreiber News only recently, I have had many ideas and notions of what my job will actually involve. As we will be pro- viding our readers with pertinent local news, I thought the first thing I should do was familiarize myself with the businesses and people that contribute tothe growth, financially, emotionally and spiritually to Terrace Bay and Schreiber. Well you guess- ed it, what better place to start than with Kimberly- Clark? ; We are all familiar with the history of this Mill in our town, we know that Kimberly-Clark provides most area residents with employment, we know that Kimberly-Clark began the development of Terrace Bay, they provided Recrea- tion, and leisure facilities for the employees. They ran the Hospital, the Hotels and pretty well everything else. Well, if I may say so they have done a very good job in providing a clean, comfortable, secure place Police Report for young and old alike. It is not my job to run down the last 39 years of the Mill in Terrace Bay, or do an extensive profile of the operation-(I'd be here for weeks), so I thought a visit to Mr. A.N. Chisholm, Director of In- - dustrial Relations for both the Mill and Woodlands would give me a general rundown. Mr. Chisholm has been with Kimberly-Clark for 25 years. He was in Ter- race Bay in the early days and returned in 1982 to 'concentrate on Employee Relations, and Incentive. Mr. Chisholm's job is very involved, he is active in labour negotiations, payroll and company policies. He manages job descriptions and evaluations, takes care of all Public Relations, and property owned by Kimberly-Clark of Terrace Bay. His most important du- ty of all, I think, is job safe- ty. We discussed safety for some time and Mr. Chisholm assures us he takes a very active role in the Pulp and Papermakers Safety Association, both Canadian and _ Nor- thwestern Ontario. He at- tends all conferences this organization holds and does his best to keep abreast on all new ideas, and procedures to max- imize safety in the work place. The Kimberly-Clark mill here is one of the safest operating mills in the country, and the logging operation is only second to one in Ontario. Safety is a constant concern and Mr. Chisholm, with his staff of 21, work hard in reminding the employee that safety Starts with them, and everyone. must work together to ensure personal safety to all. I asked Mr. Chisholm about the infestion of the budworm in our area, and though we did not have the time to debate the pros and cons, he admits there is a problem that must be close- ly monitored, and cannot be allowed to continue. Mr. Chisholm made reference to Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, who lost at least 53 per cent of their growing stock of fir and. white spruce to the budworm. We also talked briefly of the move Kimberly Clark Police help hospital Officers attended the Red Dog Inn regarding a complaint of an unwanted person. Problem was resolved and guilty party removed from the premises without further action. An investigation of a disturbance and property damage at a local motel resulted in two Schreiber residents being charged with mischief under the Criminal Code to appear in Criminal Court April 3, 1985. Constables assisted the hospital twice this week regarding patient transportation. Several parking viola- tions resulted in tickets be- ing laid again this past 'week. It appears there are still a number of citizens who continue to ignore '*No Parking"' and **Han- dicapped Parking"" signs. One motorist having car trouble was assisted by Police. Assistance was given by our force to the Marathon Police Dept. regarding a fraud investigation. Police responded to a call regarding a disturbed person entering a private home uninvited. Police at- tended, escorted person home and subsequent ar- rangements were made with a doctor concerning treatment. Police were called to two Domestic Dispute situa- tions this past week. One dispute was settled between the two parties with no fur- ther police action. The se- coné situation resulted in a Peace Bond being applied for against a person charg- ed with threatening. A constable was called out during the night regar- ding a noisy party. The culprit was advised regar- ding Noise By-Law and re- quested to turn down music and keep noise down which was complied with no fur- ther action. After receiving numerous | complaints regarding door-to-door salesmen, the police in-| vestigated and advised the Company involved that they must have a Hawkers and Peddlers' licence and this was acquired from the Town Office the same day. has made to make land available to the town for purchase. As Mr. Chisholm agrees, Kimberly-Clark has work- ed hard to maintain stan- dards in this community, and we have reached a point where more influence and divergence, applied with the same strong stan- dards would be beneficial in tapping all of this com- munity's potential. When asked if Kimberly-Clark had any plans of land + development in the near future, Mr. Chisholm told us to be listening for an an- nouncement coming soon in that regard. Well, that's about all I have to report on my first visit in many years to the Mill. I look forward to close communication with Mr. Chisholm and will let you know any information that I receive. I also look forward to engaging in more informative profiles in the future. Parent Link Presents Dr. Alan Young, Ph.D. Child Psychologist to 40 persons.
