Employees of Ontario Hydro
arid,
'
theft families in the Clinton
area ,'complete a three-day
,modern driving course this week.
" ^The instruction, conducted
by Hydro's accident prevention
officer, Avery Spencer of
London, was held in the
Agriculture and Food
Department building here.
First such instruction was
given last spring .to Clinton staff
in the Hydro maintenance and
service departments. These are
men who operate
commission-owned vehicles on
public roads.
According to Mr. Spencer,
the idea has since mushroomed•
to the point where the same
course is now provided to office
workers and 'wives or husbands
of Hydro employees.
"The two-hour sessions over
the past' three weeks are a means
of updating driving skills and
practices which Are so vital, for
today's road and ' traffic
conditions," Mr. Spencer said.
Developed by the Ontario
Department of Transport, the
driving course contains
information ' required by
prOspective drivers in the
province before they can obtain
their driving permits.
• Eventually 'the Department
expects to re-test all Ontario
drivers and make it mandatory
for motorists to pass
examinations based on
information contained in the
Modern driVing course.
"We've simply taken
advantage' of the course's
availability now," Mr: Spencer
stated. "Ontario Hydro
employees who drive
commission vehicles, while they
know the rules of the road and
are competent drivers, need
refresher training such as is
prOvided by the departmental
course.
"It proved so popular in
Clinton that we now are offering
the , same' - instruction to
employees"fumilles."
FRUITS FOR BABY
" •
Apple sauce is a good fruit for
baby to, start with. If you are
making it or any other stewed
fruit, do not use much sugar.
The only raw fruit which is
advised for small babies is ripe
banana, mashed soft with a fork.
About three tablespoons of fruit
makes a good serving. Work up
to this quantity gradually. The
.fruits should be added at noon,
says the federal health
department publication, "The
Canadian Mother and Child".
Proud winner of a swivel rocker and matching ottoman in Ball and

Hammond buy when she obtained her draw ticket? A chair.
