It was planned to rearrange the order of meetings and have the topic after the devo- t • By C. A. DEAN, M.D. MEDITORIAL : Approximately 15 per cent of all children wet the • 'bed. Since bed-wetting is one of the commonest problems of child- hood, I would like to consider its cause, types and care. This discussion on enuresis (bed - 'wetting) is restricted to the habitu- al type, not the occasional—case such as a newborn baby, where • the trouble disappears spontane- ously in a short time, - A true enuretic never has nor- mal urinary control. Occasionally parents state that their child didn't begin wetting the bed until he _was five or six, but careful questioning' will reveal that the child child was picked up each night • and placed on the toilet or that he awakened himself and went to the bathroom. When the parent stops picking up the child or when he stops awak- ening himself and the bed becomes wet is not really the beginning of the problem. Bed-wetting is a con- * dition with which the child is born, and is probably inherited. There is no reason to believe it is a re- sult of an emotional conflict. It is true, however, that after the habit is established the child will become emotionally disturbed. This emotional reaction is greatly in- fluenced by the parents' attitude. • The more they scold and punish the worse the condition becomes. * * * (Q.):' "Where can one get a book on how to relax in childbirth." Mrs. B. A. F. (A.): There are several good • books on this subject. I suggest you contact your doctor. or obste- trician for references. He may have pamphlets on this subject. tions, then the reports and busi- ness. A splendid topic was given by Mrs. Gordon McGavin on "The Unique Contribution of Women To the Church"; she then conduct- ed a Bible quiz.

Bewley, talked about stories we find in the Bible and how weof the Bible, The scripture, "How we can help others to get it," taken from I Kings 8:12-13, was read by Neil Williamson, followed by prayer by John Muir.

So that there may continue to be blood available for transfusions re- quired by area patients, a blood clinic will be held in Northside United Church on March 1, under the auspices of the Seaforth branch of the Red Cross. The Canadian Red Cross Blood Donor program, which started dur- ing the war to supply military hos- pitals with much-needed blood, has been continued in peace time for civilian hospitals. The blood trans- fusion service, because of its many technicalities, is administered by the National Office of the Cana- dian Red Cross Society, but the recruitment of donors is .the re- sponsibility of each provincial di- vision, working through the many Red Cross branches. The service was extended to in- clude all the hospitals in Ontario in 1959. This means that any hos- pital in the province, be it large or small, will always have, or can get, a supply of fresh blood or blood products for any emergency. Mrs. Ivy M. Butt, treasurer of the Seaforth branch of the Red Cross, has issued the following statement covering activities of the branch during 1960: Receipts Cash, on hand or on de- posit Jan. 1, 1960 $ 388.03 Campaign receipts 1,423.94 General donations •. 5.00 Bank interest 8.18 Custom quilting 12.00 Part payment of individual Emergency Aid 21.00 $1,858.15 Expenditures Cash remitted to Division $1,079.03 Individual emergency aid 37.52 Health- Work 14.00 Water.
