It's Sense To See Snider's Huron County's Largest Ford Dealer Larry Snider Motors LIMITED EXETER 235.1640 LONDON 227-4191 Open Weekdays Until 9 00 Saturdays Unit! 600 (Contributed by Wilma Oke) Acupuncture is political,' Darwin Semotiuk, London, Professor of Physical Education at the University of Western Ontario, told the Public Health Nurses of Huron County at a staff conference held in Seaforth Friday. He said the creation of acu- puncture anaethesia is, an ex- ample of the good results which come from carrying out Chair- man Mao's instruction on corn, bining Chinese and Western Medicine and taking China's own road in the development of medi- It is a great victory for Chairman Mao's proletarian line in health work and scientific re- search, he said. Mr. Semotiuk spent a month on a Sport and Physical Culture tour in the People's Republic of ":" 'China in May 1972, visiting factories, hospitals, schools, communes, etc, He showed slides of pictures taken while there and gave an account of his thoughts and impressions on what is happening in the country. Mr. Semotiuk provided an overview of.. China prior to the birth of the People's Republic of China and then of the way of life in modern day China. , He said for the past two de- cades the main emphasis in medi- cine is preventative medicine and that health work should primarily serve the massesOf the labouring people, the workers, peasants and soldiers. He' said too the stress is put on the rural areas where 80 per cent of the populat- ion lives. After outlining the health pro- gram, the training of nurses and _doctors and the achievements in medicine he explained acu- puncture, which he said perhaps could be regarded as one of the most significant breakthroughs in modern medicine. China's medical and scientific workers have created acupuncture anaes- thesia by applying modern scien- tific knowledge and methods and summing up and improVing on the experience • of traditional Chinese medicine in stopping Acupuncture is political, London professor states pain and curing ailments with needling. ' Acupunctuie is political, he said as he outlined the histOrY of it as first appearing in 200 BC for the treatment of pain. Since 1958 it has really developed mid expanded. Mr. Semotiuk explained the theory behind acupuncturei which to the western mind seems more metaphysical than medical. A brief outline of the details he gave, is that life energy flows from organ to organ through the network of .channels beneath the skin called meridi ass. There are twelve meridians running on either side of the body that re- present the organs, the two "extra" meridians, one along the centre in the front of the body and ohe in the back. He explained that arrayed along the netwbrk of meridians are 500 to 800 specific points that the acupuncturist must learn to pierce with his,needles-to cor- rect imbalances in the flow of - We energy. Following a complex group of laws regarding the re- lation,ship between the various organs, he may twirl his needles in points along several meridians in order to alleviate a disorder 'in one organ. He said the needles vary from half ml 'inch to several inches in length and the depth of insertion as well as the way they are twirled and vibrated affects the treatment. Mr. Semotiuk said he had had them inserted in his hand and the insertion was painless. Recovery was much like the freezing Gem- , ing out after dental work. He explained that acupuncture is being , used as an anaesthetic, as a pain killer, in the treatment of rheumatism, deaf-mates and paralysis following polio- myelitis. Mr. Semotiuk spoke of the centres in Canada and the United States where acupuncture is being studied and used. He was most en- thusiastic as he spoke of major operations he has watched where it was used as an anaesthetic and the patient rem ained com fortable and fully conscious during the surgery. Mr. Semotiuk concluded his talk by saying there is a popular phrase in the new China (awe should strive to learn from the people of the world" and he said it would appear that we should be adopting a similar philosophy when dealing with the question of acupuncture, for Western medicine has much to learnfrom the People's Republic of China. • The Forresters held a very successful Family Dance on Fri- day evening with, Mary Broad- font's Orchestra providing the music.

Several commercial silage additives containing non-protein nitrogen are being marketed which, when added to corn silage, increase the protein content of that silage for beef and dairy cattle. Reports indicate that pigs, however, can utilize very little, if any, non-protein nitrogen as supplied by such products Marsh World Ducks Unlimited (Canada) POTHOLE BLASTING — Dynamiting of potholes in shallow marshes is one method used by Ducks Unlimited to increase waterfowl production. About 30 feet in diameter and deep enough to, retain water throughout the nesting season, they are located at selected points in the marsh.

We err, often, because an introduction may come under ad- verse conditions or because someone we already know has whispered into our opposite ear. we fail, sometimes, because, we' feel no common ground with someone -of different origin, background or belief. The better life, the worldof peace and brotherhood will be achieved when all of ns truly believe that peace and brother- hood is possible. ' When we believe, when we realize the pos- sibility, our lives begin to take on the people-to-people relation- ships through which it must be achieved. (Ottawa) - Two 8 cent stamps, depicting the artifacts and the way of life of the Algonkian Indians, will be issued by the Canada Post Office on 21 Feb- ruary 1973. The stamps are part of the continuing series begun in 1972 portraying the cul- tures of the early Indian tribes of Canada. The stamp depicting the Algonkian way of life takes its design from the anonymous pain- ting, -'Micmac Indians", which was reproduced through the cour- tesy of the National Gallery of Canada. The second stamp depicts Algonkian artifacts, photographed by Ray Webber, from the collections of the Na- tional Museum of Man, the Royal Ontario Museum and Mrs. Alika Podolinsky-Webber. "We are extremely proud of this series.", said Postmaster General, the Hon. Andre Ouellet. "It is a well deserved tribute to a people whose unique 'and enrichedi colwrful, heritage has , j1.414 1 itiaPreerY , ' u-ltu2" "our tonSc1Wre' i lf i to the family 'of related languages spoken by a number of different Indian tribes .whose territories ranged from the Affiritime proVinces in the east to the lakes and forests of Manitoba in the west. The Algonkian Indians were comprised of six principal tribes. They were the Malecite and Mic- mac of the Maritimes; the Mon- tagis of northern Quebec; the Algonquin of the Ottawa Valley; the Ojibwa of the area north of Lakes Superior and Huron; and the Cree of Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba and Saskatchewan. The most important cultural iteftl of the Algonkian Indians was birchbark. It was used for the construction of canoes, wigwams and many types of containers.. They relied primarily. upon hunting and fishing for their main sources of food and supplemented their diets with berries and wild rice. Some tribes, such as the Ojibwa, the Malecite and the Mic- mac, also grew corn. TECHNICAL FACTS The stamp depicting Algon- kian artifacts includes, from left to right: a birchbark basket of the Tet-de-Soule (a division of the Ojibwa); an Ojibwa wooden papoose carrier; a pair of snow- shoes for a Montagnais child; a Malecite birchbark basket; a Montagnais birchbark box; a Montagnais knife; and a Micmac birchbark basket decorated with porcupine quillwork. Typography and layout for the two stamps were done by Georges Beaupre. The stamps each measure 36 mm. by 30 mm. in a horizontal format. A total of 24,000,000 is being printed se-tenant in four colour lithography by the British American Bank Note Company of Ottawa . Marginal inscriptions including the designers' names appear on the four corners of each pane of fifty stamps available from the Philatelic Ser- vice. The total production of these stamps .has been produced bearing the "General (Ottawa) Tagging". The stamps Will not be available in any other form. Mint stamps are available to collectors through Philatelic Counters at selected post offices across Canada as well as by mail order through the philatelic Service, Canada Post Office, Gt.,. tawa, Ontario, K1A OB5. • • -ALGONKIAN INDIANS Algonkian p a family of related languages spoken over a wide area Of Canada. When Europeans first arrived on the shores of this continent, Algonkian-speaking people oc- cupied the whole of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and prince Edward Island, most of Quebec, northern Ontario and parts of the Prairies. The Algonkian tribes populating the great Swine feed from silo still awaits additive ' petitions as urea. A silage additive containing anhydrouis ammonia and minerals (Pro-sil) has been developelat Miphige State, Unive,rsit)r,arict used for feeder steers with good results. In an experiment at Ridgetown, this material was en- siled with high-moisture corn and later fed to market hogs as a complete feed. This feed con- tained 2.7 per cent protein equi- valent supplied by the additive. It was compared with a low- protein and a high-protein feed. All rations contained the same level of other nutrients. The treated high moisture corn feed was readily accepted by the pigs. However, results indicated there was no benefit from the non-protein nitrogen when measured in terms of feed efficiency, age to reach market weight, and average daily gain. Pigs fed the low-protein ration and the test ration performed similarly.' Both groups were in- ferior to pigs receiving the high- protein feed. ,A possible explanation could be a deficiency of some essen- tial amino acids in the poorer performance rata ons. Pigs in the inferior groups required an extra 10 days to achieve market weight. Studies will be under- taken adding some essential arrlino acids to this type of feed. Feed cost per pound of gain in this study was the same for the low-protein feed and the high- protein feed. However, the slow- gaining pigs fed the low-protein feed required a longer feeding period than those -fea the high- protein feed. A complete feed stored in a silo would only be possible if and when an additive product can be developed to supplement high moisture corn economically, with adequate levels of protein, mine- rals and vitamins.

It was used for the con- struction of canoes, wigwams and many types of containers. The Algonquins were a loosely organized tribe inhabiting the Ottawa Valley, both on the north side and on the south between the Ottawa River and Lake NI- .pissing. Being hunters and col- lectors, they relied heavily on deer, berries, rabbits and fish. The territory of the Swampy or Woodland Cree extended from , Lake Mistassini in Quebec to Lake Winnipeg and from the Ojibwa , territory on the south to that of the Subarctic Indians on the north. Commonly considered a tribe, the Cree were in reality a series of bands, each fading into adjacent groups. The large area they inhabited had poor hun- ting resources and theirs was a marginal existence largely dependent on moose, deer, cari- bou and rabbits. The Ojibwewere the residents of the enormous wooded area west of the Ottawa Valley between the Cree on the north and the Iroquois of the Great Lakes region to the south. Each Ojib- wa band tended to have its own dialect and way of life so that there were marked differences between the eastern and the wes- tern Ojibwa. As a whole, they they were woodland hunters and fishermen who supplemented the results of their hunting skills with berries and wild rice. This ne- cessitated seasonal migrations. In the winter they separated into small family groups and retired to a favourite hunting area. In the spring they collected maple sap and then gathered for the summer in larger villages where they planted corn. During the fall, the wild rice was gathered and white-fish were caught by those near Sault Ste. Marie. , „-Canadait In the Maritime provinces were the Malecite and Micmac. They were primarily hunters and collectors -'of shellfish. some corn was grown in southern New Brunswick. Northers. Quebec' was .the domain of the Naskapi Indians. The southwest bands were called Montagnais by the French, and belong culturally and linguis- tically to the Algonkian group. Their population was small and their Material culture, art and political , structure - extra- ordinarily simple because of the sparse resources of their environment. . SEAFORTH MEAT ..
