It had obtained a social worker, closed its shel- ter to follow the method of fos- ter home care, and was doing a more concentrated piece of work, becoming more socially and community conscious. "In 1949," she continued, "a new constitution was drawn up and the board enlarged, taking in members from all over .the county. We had three clothing centres throughout the county; a superannuation plan was ar- ranged by the county and salar- ies reconsidered, as well as the need of an additional worker, for now we had investigations and administration of family allowances, as well as reports for the Official Guardian in all divorce cases where there were children. In 1954 the Juvenile and Family Court was formed, Magistrate Holmes being the judge. "The adoption pool was put into effect in 1954 by the De- partment. Our Society had long been accepting and placing problem and handicapped chil- dren from Toronto, and our success in this field encourag- ed the Toronto Society to work further with us and later branch out to other societies. "When we moved to the new courthouse, probation was an accomplished fact and we were relieved of our investigation reports which had taken much time and planning. The Child Welfare Act was amended to provide that all collections un- der agreements relative to the Unmarried Parents Section and the processing of adoptions, formerly done by the Depart- ment, were transferred to local societies. "After Judge Holmes' death two years ago, Magistrate 11. Glenn Hays became our new juvenile court judge," Miss Mc- Gowan said, in updating the so- ciety's activities. "He has a keen insight and understanding of juveniles, and patiently gives much time and consideration to our society problems. His knowl- edge and wisdom are of infin- ite value. "Our special Christmas plan- ning has steadily increased with the years. We endeavour to help Santa see that no child in our county is missed at Christ- mas. "We take our children on shopping trips for special things. We help older boys and girls get jobs for the summer or enrolment in special cours- es or schools. "We have had a few invita- tions to appear on CKNX, and we do give addresses on Chil- dren's Md work at meetings of women's and men's organiza- tions. "Judge Costello, of our coun- ty court for many years, was succeded by Judge F. Fingland. He graciously sees all our new adopting parents when the pro- bationary period is completed. This gives them a greater sig- nificance of the Adoption Or- der, which he signs, and is much' appreciated." The Board of Directors (1981) of the Children's Aid Society of Huron County is as follows: \president, Hugh Berry, Us- boihe (RR 1, Woodham); first vice-president, William McKen- zie, Exeter, W. R. Jewitt, Hul- lett (RR 1, Clinton); honorary ceived treats at Christmas. A new chart is to be bought for the Little Helpers.. Bulle- tins were given out; $25 was given the Social Service; $5.00 to the Anglican Woman's Train- ing College and $5.00 to Rev. G. Morrow, the prayer partner. The annual secretary's report was read, also annual treas- urer's report and annual Social Service report, and Mrs. D. Netzke reported 32 taking Liv- ing Message. Rev. Donaldson took over the meeting at this point and the new officers for 1962 were elect- ed: Honorary president, Mrs. H. Donaldson; president, "Mrs.: G. McGavin; vice-presidents, Mrs. W. O'Shea and Miss C. Holmes; treasurer, Miss D. Parke; Little Helpers, Mrs. G. Snowden; secretary, Mrs. C. Coombs; pianist, Miss Anna Stewart; Dorcas secretary, Mrs. B. MacLean; study book, Rev. H.

SORTTH FIREMEN SPONSOR S:, CU • i�AR U DYSTROPHY A The connection betweeh an organization known as the Ex- cerpta Medica Foundation of Amsterdam and the Seaforth Fire Brigade is not readily ap- parent. Yet a very real con- nection exists between these two groups. It is the job of the Excerpts Medica Foundation to prepare abstracts (digests of research papers) for publication and dis- tribution . to research scientists of every country who work in the biological and medical fields. It is normally the job of Sea - forth firefighters to prevent the spread of damage caused by faulty furnaces, careless smok- ers, or amateur drycleaners who play around with gasoline and naptha in kitchens and base- ments . . , that is what fire- fighters normally do. It is what they do above and beyond this that links them with the de- liberations of the editorial board of the Excerpta Medica Foundation. Since 1954, Canada's fire- fighters, including members of Boys Learn Arts of Chef Male enthusiasm for the homemaking arts is keen at the Clinton District Collegiate In- stitute. 'When Mrs. Andrew Whetham, Dublin, of the teaching staff, first organized a Chefs' Club, so overwhelming was the re- sponse that over 60 boys were grouped in three classes. More surprising, perhaps, is that the course is an extra -curricular one. However, at present just one class exists, with 18 males par- ticipating, and for each of them it is their second year. "Our goal is to school the boys to prepare meals at home when necessary," Mrs. Whet - ham said. Not only do the boys prepare and cook the food, but they eat it as well. Naturally they follow up with the usual clean-up chores of washing dish- es. This year's course accents breakfast and supper dishes, but added is the making of pastry, .no -bake cookies, and several other interesting dishes. The course is also designed for boys who wish a brief experi- ence in the selection and care of clothing. The care, in this case, means the laundering and ironing of boys' shirts, and so on. Members are required to end their housekeeping chores in the course with running the vacuum gleaner. secretary, A. M. Robertson, Goderich; secretary, J. G. Ber- ry, Goderich; treasurer, B. G.

One of the handiest ways to fireproof a tree is to soak the butt in water; it pre- vents the tree from becoming tinderdry, according to Ontario Department of Agriculture saf- ety specialist, H. E. Wright. To assist the tree in absorbing we - water, make a fresh cut diagon- ally across the butt end of the tree before the end is immers- ed.

At the moment it is impossible to do anything about MD—either by way of prevention, treatment or cure. But if an answer is to be found, it will be found as a result of painstaking medical research, and towards this research effort firefighters have raised at Ieast fifty per cent of the $1,500,000 already made available to Can- adian scientists and laborator- ies by the Muscular Dystrophy Association of Canada. Thus, when medical research reports from Canadian scien- tists are published by the Ex- cerpta Medica Foundation to advance and facilitate the work of world science, most of the recipients are probably una- ware of the help they are get- ting from the Seaforth Fire Brigade. The firefighters don't care too much about that, but they would like to be around when the children of this coun- try, finally delivered from the r threat of muscula''dystrophy`, can look forward to a normal life span. To help them in their aim they ask your assistance. Dona- tions may be left in containers which will be found in many Seaforth and area stores. nig W i VVOSUOlk, rSEAM= D$"$T, Ate, x4, /061- 13 LP Seaford) Fire __Fight._.* • .....•...
