estithated that over 50% of all the dogs are
infected. In Detroit in 19.0 one survey
indicated roughly 2% of dogs were infected.
This number has probably' increased since
then and more anti more eases are being
discovered in Ontario from dogs that have not
even travelled out of the Province. Therefore,
this is a disease that every pet, owner should
be concerned . about; especially considering
how difficUlt treatment is and how one dog can
spread the disease via mosquitos to several
others.

Arnold Mathers, principal of
Huron Centennial Public School
south of Clinton, told the board'a
reduction of principal's
secretarial time would further
cramp the already tight schedule
of a principal. He said the
elementary scirdol, principal's
association had appealed to the
board'every, year for the past five
years for more secretarial time
and was asking the board to not •
only, ignore the recommendation
to reduce secretarial time but to
consider authorizing more.
Mr Mathers suggested that
the board consider giving
principals of schools with less
than 199 students secretary
hours per week where they now
get one 24.5 hours per week. He
suggested schools with between
200,and 399 students get 35 hours
of secretarial help where they--
now get between 31.5 and 35.,
hours and schools with 400
students or more get 42 hours per
week where they now get 35 ,
hours. • . . .
The :revised policy suggested
by the property committee
granted schools with less than 40
pupils seven hours secretarial
tittle .per. week.. Schools with
elementary school. H e said all
but six elementary schools In the
county had teaching principals'
pointing out that the proposed
'Hecy pe9lized smaller schools.
sal& the added secretarial
time could:', be justified by the
prinapals if the board wished.
Mr. MatherS said public
relations encouraged 'in
elementaiy schools has
exicOuraged Increased visits to the
scheols by parents, More
telephone calls from parents*
school newsletters,, parent-
teacher interviews aind other
duties that the principals must
assume.

principals were required to spend
time Counting and banking milk

. A tangled mass of long white worms
resembling spaghetti fill the inside of theheart
Lim@ pulmonary artery! This is not a
from a science fiction horror
story, but of an important disease involving
dogs in the United States and even South
Western Ontario. The parasite responsible for
the condition is "Heartworm", or Dirofilaria
which comes from . the Latin meaning '"evil
thread". Heartworm has been known tO occur
in dogs for the 'past fifty years along the ,
eastern and gulf Oasts of,the United State's
but has recently spread inland due to the
increase in pet travel.
The mosquito is instrumental in the
Heartworm life cycle. The adult worms
treasuring 6-12 inches in length lie in the right -
side of the heart and pulmon,aly artery and
release their young called "microfilariae",irite
the. blood stream. These microfilariae
circulate to the skin where the 'can be picked -
up by mosquitos. In the mosquitos they
undergo changes and within 10 to 20 days are
ready to reiefect dogs while the mosquito
feeds on the canine blood. It takes 6-8 months
• before the 'young heartworms in the newly
infected dog will migrate to the heart, mature,
arid produce , microfilariae of their own.
Problems arising from Heartworm infection
are obvious. The worms interfere with blood
flow and damage arteries and blood cells.
Thus; anemia and -heart failure may result if
large numbers of the adult worms are present.
One may see a dog fainting, coughing
frequently, or just lacking exercise tolerance.
Many

have heartworms and
