Sept. 26, 27 MIR trucks 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, OBITUARIES EDWARD GORDON DIEHL Edward Gordon Diehl, 358 James Street, Clinton, died September 18 at Clinton Public Hospital, He was 71 years of age.

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.

Mr. Thomas Leppington, Spencer Street, has returned home from Westminster hospital where he has been having a medical check-up. I do my honSewOrk in spasms.

Then there . are the ethei :These are the days wheii.'I 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 ptishing dirt under chairs. 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 • breaks. I find it much easier to admit the truth about . my housekeeping inability than to make excuses for myself. If -a friend drops in at 11 a.m. to find the breakfast dishes still on the table, I tell her outright I was playing leap frog with the baby and. just didn't get around to them. Before too many - weeks, she has learned to expect the worst whenever she come to visit — and is occasionally pleasantly surprised to find things ship-shape.

"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 facts • in the matter. I'm a positive sloueh when it comes to doing housework. The corners in my little kingdom are almost never 100 per cent germ • free. While other women are scrubbing and waxing, I'm writing drivle like this for them to read in their leisure moments. Everything is relative after all. Whatever makes one happy is what really counts in life: Which is nobler — to do those bothersome things which are expected of you because other people are doing them or to do those simple things you enjoy because it makes you feel good allover?
