Survey teams visit
local hospitals
Survey teams: from the
Gollege of Physicians and
Surgeons of Ontarig and• the
Ontario Hospital Asseeiation
have today begun their visits to
some 120 smaller hospitals in
()aerie as part of the volimtAry
Hospital Assessment Program
being conducted jointly by the
two organizations,
The first visit is being made
to the 22-bed, active treatment
Margaret Cochenour Memorial
Hospital at Cochenour, 350
miles northwest of the
Lakehead. The visiting team,
consisting of three physicians
and a hospital administrator, on
the same trip will assess the
Dryden District Hospital and the
Sioux Lookout General
Hospital.
The program swings into top'
gear the following week with
four other teams visiting
hospital's in other parts of the
province. So far, survey dates
have been confirmed for 24
hospitals by mid-October and it
is planned to assess 70 before
the end of November, including
all those between the Manitoba
boundary and the Ottawa
Valley. The remaining 50
hospitals will be visited during
the Winter and next Spring.
Twenty-two hospital
administrators and 40 doctors
have already accepted invitations
to serve on these teams. All are
experienced in the
administration of small or
medium sized hospitals and the
efficient organization of medical
services in these institutions.
"The response of
administrators and doctors has
been one of enthusiasm and
whole-hearted support for this
important program," said Dr. J.
C. C. Dawson, Registrat of the
College. "They have welcomed
the invitations to participate,
even though in some instances it
means they must be on the road
for four or five days. Most teams
will travel at least 500 miles and
one will cover more than 1,000
miles to complete its visits to
Northern hospitals."
R. Alan Hay, Executive
Director of the Ontario Hospital
Association, who has shared in
the task of scheduling the
-surveys, stressed the fact the
assessment if wholly voluntary
and that visits are 'made only
with the full approval of the
hospitals concerned. "We have
been greatly encouraged by the
ready acceptance of the
assessment program by the
boards, administrators and
medical staffs of small hospitals,
and by the willingness of busy
physicians and administrators to
At last, quiet in the house!
Opening of school brings respite
from children's noise, but
mothers have still 'another
benefit to be thankful for,
according to the Council on.
Family Health in Canada.
School days bring a big drop in
the number of accidents to
children.
Adeidents not only can be
prevented nine times out of ten,
according to the Council, but
oddly enough, you can
practically clock them. More
than half of ' home accidents
occur on, just three days:
Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
What is the safest day of the
week? It's Sunday. Life on that
day is more leisurely, and there
are more adults around to look
out for the younger members of
the family.'
There is even a certain time
of day when accidents are most
likely to happen in .the home —
betweeen the hours of 3 and 6
p.m. The children are becoming
tired, hungry and fretful.
Mothers are occupied with
preparations for the evening
meal.
' The Council, a non-profit
organization established by
members of the drug industry to
promote family health and home
safety warns that on rainy or
cold days parents should keep an
especially watchful eye on their
youngsters. Boys and girls
become bored when they are
cooped up for long hours
indoors. They look for new
places for excitement. Small
children venture to explore such
4, places as kitchen cupboards
under the sink. Detergents,
disinfectants and other
chemicals should not be stored
in such low-level cabinets.
Wandering about in the
kitchen, they may discover
knives and other sharp objects
on low counters, or dangling
electric cords still attached to
appliances. Or they may even
discover reachable handles of
pots and pans on the stove,

Unit leader, Miss. McGregor
conducted a memorial in honour
of the .late Mrs, Addison, a
valued and beloved member of
the former W.M.S.. .and later the
U.C.W. Roll call was answered
with a highlight of the summer,.
The offering was received. by
Mrs. Sutter and dedicated by the
leader.
Miss McGregor then
introduced the afternoon
speaker, Mrs. Douglas Andrew,
who had attended the Alma
College School for leaders. She
brought • a report of several
days' studies, activities, new
films, and .drama. -
During the business period,
the visiting report of 19 home
calls and 21 hospital calls on sick
and .shut-ins was given. The
treasurer reported an offering .
from the June Meeting of
$47.50 also the Cent-a-day
offering yielded $27.50.
Miss McGregor announced
that the regional meeting will be
held at Varna, October 22. A
request was made for two sewing
assistants to go to Ontario
Hospital, Goderich. Quilt blocks
are needed for a quilt to go to
Blind River. A social half hour

postage stamps
In order to provide an
increased period for public
awareness of the 50th
anniversary of the 1918
Armistice, a stamp on this theme
will be advanced from Nov. 6 to
Oct. 15.
The international significance
of the cessation of hostilities will
also be recognized by
production of the Armistice
stamp in the 15 cent
denomination suitable for
overseas air transmission.
Accompanying .' the decision
to produce the issue in the 15
cent value will be a significant
reduction in the printing order
which is normally about 24
million.
A further re-scheduling also
moves the stamp honouring
Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae
the writer of "In Flanders
Fields" from the Nov. 6 to Oct.
15.
Christmas stamps, orignially
scheduled for release on Oct. 9
will not be placed on sale until
Nov, 1.
handles that should have been'
turned inward in the first place.
There is one safety measure
in the home that applies every
day of the year and every hour,
according to the' Council on
Family Health in Canada, At all
times, medicines and drugs must
be returned to their proper
storage places, immediately after
use. It is an open invitation to
accidental poisoning to leave
drugs and medicines on night
tables or low counters where
they can be seen and perhaps
swallowed by little childreri.
Medicine chests should be
locked, if possible, to prevent
children from sampling their
contents. And they should
always be high in the wall, too
high for little explorers to reach.
Since the opening of school
signifies a decrease in the
number of accidents to children,
does it also signify that mother
can — at long last — relax her
vigilance on behalf of safety and
health in the home?
No, says • the Council on
Family Health in Canada, not if
she expects the word "safety" to
apply to her home.
Wednesday, September 18,
was "Hobby Night" when
Kipper East Women's Institute
met in the Legion Hall, Hensall,

Cook, of flenall, who spoke on

Dave Triebner for agriculture
and Canadian industries; Mrs.
Grant MacLean for home

John Sinclair for current events.

Mr. Thomas Leppington,

home from Westminster hospital
where he has been having a
medical check-up.

dawdle over my coffee until ten,
visit with a friend until noon,
watch television until four, talk
on the telephone until five and
spend a half hour before dinner
stuffing clutter into drawers and

To tell the truth, I think my
had days outnumber my good
days by 'quite a bit.
I don't know how I got this
way.' My mother kept a' shining
house, and taught me how to do
the same. 1"can remember she'd
set me at a task like cleaning up
my bedroom. She'd make me do
it over .and over again until I had
it to her satisfaction. She
certainly didn't give me many

I find it much easier to admit
the truth about . my
housekeeping inability than to
make excuses for myself.

to find the breakfast dishes still

the worst whenever she come to
visit — and is occasionally
pleasantly surprised to find
things ship-shape.

eyehrows slightly to find a layer'
of Amy dust, a few crtists, some
tiny toys and a bologna rind
under the old stove,
"Should have remembered to
sweep that up before you
came,"I offered. "Sometimes it
is worse than that before I get
around to cleaning under the
stove."
The electrician relaxed.
"You'd just be amazed to
know the number of women
who would try to make me
believe they had just cleaned
under the stove yesterday," he
laughed.
He admired my honesty — if
not my housekeeping.
So now you know the real
