MAE LANE AUXILIARY The Mae Lane Evening Auxil- iary of Northside United Church met at the home of Miss Eleanor Henderson Monday evening with 14 members present. Mrs. Neil Bell opened the meeting with a poem, "Do You Just Belong." Several favorite hymns were 'en, joyed with Mrs. Peter Dunlop at the piano. Mrs. Neil Bell conducted the business, during which an invita- tion was read from the WMS, in- viting Mae Lane members to at- tend their spring thankoffering meeting on March 28. The treas- urer's report was given by Miss Muriel Hudson and a Stewardship reading followed, presented by Miss Eleanor Henderson. A letter of appeal for blankets or donations to be sent to the ov- erseas relief, was read by Thelma Elgie. It was decided to respond by sending enough money to pur- chase half a dozen blankets. Mrs. Doug Whyte .opened the de- votional part of the meeting with a poem, "Drop a Pebble in the Water." A hymn was sung, fol- lowed by a scripture passage from Romans. Mrs. Chas. Pinder led in prayer. Mrs. Whyte and Mrs. John Stevens very ably pre- sented the topic from the study book, "A Thousand Paper Cranes." TO THE EDITOR: Toronto, February, 1961. Editor, The Huron Expositor: Dear Sir: The 1960 Christmas Appeal of The I•lolspital for Sick Children was most successful. This I know is due in great mea- sure to the interesting stories that were, published in the press and sent out over radio and television, The work of the Hospital is con- tinuing to expand and it is only through your co-operation and the generous support of the public that we can work towards an in- tegrated research program which is so much needed, as well as pro- viding". the treatment of out- patients- who are in the low income bracket. Yours sincerely, C. L. GUNDY, Chairman of the Board of Trustees, By C. A. DEAN, M.D. MEDITORIAL: The most impor- tant factor in the development of medicine has been research—the key to success. Without it many medical problems would remain unsolved. While every disease is being stu- died, perhaps the greatest amount of research is being done on the heart. Since heart disease is the commonest cause of death it is easy to see why• it gets so much attention. There are several causes of heart disease -- all under study. However,.. the greatest concentra- tion of effort is on the three com- mon types: rheumatic fever, coro- nary artery disease and arterio- solerotic heart disease. 'Much pro- gress has been made but more is needed before they are conquered, Most of the research for heart - disease is sponsored by the Heart Fund, an organization formed to study the heart in its normal and abnormal states. * * * (Q.): "I fractured my thigh about a year ago anditad an op- eration to insert a pin. Shortly af- ter the operation I got an infection in the wound and it is 'draining still. Is there a possibility f will walk again?" Mrs, M. E. G. (A.): In most cases similar to yours the patient eventually does walk again. You may require many more months, perhaps another year or so, of continued care and treat- ment. The infection has limited normal healing and prolonged your recovery. SETTING OUT ON A SATURDAY MORNING HIKE are Scouts of the RCAF's Maple Leaf Troop at Metz, France Behind them can be seen the 600 -year-old German Gates, one of the most distinctive landmarks of the ancient City of Metz.

HENSALL ' TRAVELLERS AGREE ' SANTA CLARA • WINTER PARADISE (Third in a series of letters from Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Noakes, who are vacationing in the southwest- ern United States.) Santa Barbara seems quite a nice place with large houses and swank neighborhoods. We follow- ed the shoreline quite a long way to the highway and the ocean on the other side—a wonderful sight to see. Soon we came to San Jose and changed to a Local bus for Santa Clara in •time for supper. This is the end of the first lap of our journey. We found the folks well and quite happy in their new home, This is February 6th, and we have been here nearly three weeks, so we have had time to look around a bit. We are in Santa Clara Val- ley, and up to now it is the pret- tiest place (in the winter). The climate is wonderful—temperature 65 to 70. I have seen orange and lemon trees grow on the front lawns — beautiful flowers every- where, and such green lawns, love- ly homes, wide clean streets and sidewalks—some orchads that have not yet met the fate of the bull- dozers. Twenty miles to the east is the Sierra Mountain Range, some of which are up to 7,000 feet. This is quite a large valley with three cities in it, namely, San Jose, the largest, Santa Clara and Sunnyvalle, all joined by sub- divisions. Today is the 8th of February. As you see, I write this a little at a time, as I spend most of the day outdoors. We received your Letter and papers yesterday, tell- ing us about the cold weather. It saves us writing to all the folks back home (who asked us to write), when you give my trav- elogues to the paper. Two weeks ago Sunday we went to Santa Cruz, a town on the Paci- fic Ocean. We drove out on the wharf and saw the seals in their natural state, swimming in the bay and diving for fish. A num- ber of people were surf -riding; some were in bathing. Santa Cruz is about 40 miles from here, over the mountains on a four -lane high- way, called the Freeway. It is a beautiful drive, .but the traffic is hurry! hurry! People down here don't know they are living. They never notice the little valleys be- tween the mountains with the lit- tle fruit farms, aliricots and prune plum trees in bloom; green grass, and especially the sunshine. How- ever, it does rain here some times, that is why everything is so green, but the weather does not turn cold after a rain, as it does at home. I was watching TV February 2 and the weatherman said we will have six more weeks of winter. Imagine! I also saw the newscast of the big storm that tied up New York. We shivered all the while it was being shown. The next day we went to Capatulaon the shore- line of Santa Cruz. If you can remember what it is like going to a summer resort on the 1st of July at home, you will have an idea of conditions here. People were wearing shorts and bathing suits, I took off my shoes and soaked my corns in the surf. Can you beat that! I wouldn't dare do that at home, even in the tub. Feb. 5: We came home by a different route on a winding two- lane highway with very little traf- fic. I had a good opportunity to see the farms in the valleys. Won- derful is the only way I can de- scribe it! It was a perfect day. Well, here it is Feb. 12th and the time is just flying away. We had a few showers last week, so there are more trees in 'blossom. The grass is about six inches high (in the vacant lots). Farmers are planting strawberries and garden things. The daffodils, violets, snowrops and all the spring flowers are in bloom in the gar- dens now. -. The next letter I write I will tell you about a trip to the Flea market in San Jose. In the mean, time we are enjoying every min- ute of our holiday. LOCAL BRIEFS Mr. Fred Beattie has returned to his home after spending ,two months in Ottawa. Mr. W. E.
