The nurses gave each child
a ride in a wheelchalr and then
showed them how it "squuezes"
up for compact storage.
When we arrived at the Tuck
Shop, the children were surprised
to see toys and candy and one
said, "when I get sick in here,
I want one of those turtles with
the soap• inside" and another
said 8! My mom takes her turn
to work in here."
By this time, we had cov-

The federal government will
pay compensation to horse own-
ers who have their animals des-
troyed under a program to rid
the Canadian horse population of
Equine Infectious Anemia(Swamp
Fever), Agriculture Minister H.
A. (Bud) Olson announced today.
As a service to horse owners,
in February 1971, federal veter-
inarians started using the Cog-
gins test and since 'then more
than 50,001) Canadian horses have
been tested through the Health
of Animals Branch laboratories
at Hull, Quebec.
When the testing began, about
seven per cent of the horses re-
acted positively. .That was con-
sidered to be a significant rate
qf infection.
Since then, the rate of posi-
tive reactors has dropped to ab-
out one per cent and continues
to decline.
Last year the federal govern-
ment also introduced require-
ments whereby imported horses
had to react "negatively to the
Coggins- test before they would.
be allowed entry to Canada.
• "With this lower level of
infection, we have decided to
move to the second stage of the
program to eradicate the disease,
Mr. Olson said. '
"We will pay compensation
for horses that- react positively
to the Coggins test and are
slaughtered.
"There will be provision in
special cases for owners to keep
'horses which have reacted posi-
tively under strict quarantine
supervised by Health of Animals
Branch veterinarians.
(we have in mind cases where
the horse has special value to the
owner, such as valuable breeding
animals and pets," he said.
"These animals will be mark-
ed to identify them as positive to
EIA."

The Kindergarten Class of
Seaforth Public School was taken
to the Seaforth Community Hos-
pital by members of the Hospital
Auxiliary for their annual tour
last Wednesday.
When I first told the children
about the visit, some were very
reluctant to go, because their'
only former association with the
hospital was when they visited
the Health Clinic for a "needle".
However, by the time the after-
noon ended, they had learned
many things and formed new
opinions.
When we arrived at the hos-
pital, Mr. Betties was waiting
in the ambulance. The children
were allowed 'to walk through
it, to see how a patient is taken
to emergency. Mr. Betties dem.=
onstrated, on • the children, the
new "plastic casts that are blown
up" in the cases with broken
limbs. They were warned to be
ready for the sound of a siren,
as a siren is loud and scary.
As it whined its shrill sound,
the children covered their ears
and squealed, - but one little
boy said, "That didn't hurt a
bit!"
The children were greeted
inside the hospital by Mr.' Mc-
Kenzie, Mrs. 'Ring and the three
nurses who were to lead the
groups on their tour.
We visited the laundry where
the ladies were ironing sheets.
The children were fascinated with
the iron where all the rollers
are 1.olling around!" They liked'
the big shiny kitchen,all the carts.
"My mom would sure like a
big dishwasher like that" one
said. They marvelled at a tap
where "ice cubes poured out".
And to see a fridge that you
could walk right into, was almost
Unbelievable. "No wonder the
place was hot, you should see
the furnaces and pipes" quoted
a little boy, and "They even have
a store 'where the nurses can go
in and get anything they need for
the hospital and another store
wheye they've _ got millions et
bottles of medicine," said
another.
Riding pp and down in the
elevator was a real thrill for
the many children who had never
been in one. Someone said, "I
hope I don't get elevator sick".
We saw the X-raricameras"
and the X-ray table that stands
straight up. We saw how an X-ray
is developed. The technician put
a green sheet (film) into a mach-
ine and it came out black with a ,
picture of your bones on it.
We saw the leg X-ray of one of
our Kindergarteners and com-
pared it to a broken leg X-ray
of someone else.
We visited the operating room
and saw the "big spot light"
and the table that moved up,
down and sideways. As the nurse
was explaining and demonstrating
the use of anaesthetic, one rather
uninterested little gal said "I've
seen all this on Dr. Welby`j"-
Dr. Whitman was busy with a
patient bikt when he finished, he
showed the children a long swab
with the panicle he had taken
out of his patients' eye. As we
entered the doctor's I ounge, Dr.
Malkus, wearing a green, mask,
greeted us saying, "I'm the Jolly
Green, Giant, ho, ho, ho!" The
children giggled. Then the doctut
explained his d,totaphone and
-played back their conversation.
Of course, we.weren't allowed

Before Datsun came 'to Canada, we got to
know the country pretty well. We studied the
driving conditions, we talked to the people. We
found out what cars in Canada have to be. They
have to be economical, dependable; they have to
handle well, winter or summer. We found out that
people want cars that can be serviced anywhere they
drive in Canada ... and that's why we have 270 dealers and huge
parts wareho4Ses right across the country. We asked, and now we
know, And that's how we can build Datsuns that feel right at home
