CHRISTMAS SEALS FIGHT EMPHYSEMA, TUBERCULOSIS AND OTHER RESPIRATORY DISEASES the longest lasting flowers for the home are potted mums which are available all year round. They are available in yellow, bronze, red, lavender, pink and white. A long period of bloom can be obtained by selecting plants with partially opened buds. Direct sunlight and night temperatures of 60 to 65 deg. F will prolong bloom and ensure full color in the developing flowers. Mums require large amounts of water to prevent wilting. Any of these plants will help brighten up a winter's day. At the same time, they are a reminder that spring is not that far away._ PROPER NAMES FOR TREES The proper Latin name for a tree gives much? information. Sugar Maple, for instance is Ace/ saccharum Marsh. Acer is the generic name which tells us that it belongs to the maples, saccharum is from the Greek "sakcharon" meaning sugary and Marsh is the abbreviated name of Humphrey Marshall who first described this species.

Broadcaster-journalist Barbara From alternates with William Ronald as host of the week- night phone-out program As it Happens, 6:30 .2- 8 p.m. EST on. CBC Radio. The show roller- coasts across Canada's time zones, live, using phones to break time and distance bring- ing listeners firsthand accounts of front page and humttn in- terest stories happening around the world. "Cansave is the only organization I saw that. is working to change the 'dole' of the "Poor" into one of self-help," says Michael Jacot, a Toronto film-maker engaged with a special Foundation grant to produce a documentary about the work of the Canadian Save the Children Fund. The Caribbean Islands represent Cansave's largest single commitment, and a striking example of Cansave's belief that development is partnership, not paternalism. The approach and the administration are both West Indian. One old man told Jacot, "I don't see how that day nursery can have much to do with Canada, There's no white faces there." Education is all-important, both for the children and for the people who work with them. Cansave's model day-care and training program in St. Vincent, Dominica, St. Lucia and Grenada features mother and teacher training, nutrition centres and clinic, family planning, nurseries and day-care centres, counselling services and development and support of local committees and organizations. Every year, girls from the various islands come to St. Vincent on CANSAVE scholarships, to study child care. After a years training, they return to their own islands and put this knowledge to work for their own people. In Jamaica, as in so many other areas, Cansave works ih co-operation with local agencies, The Jamaica Save the Children Fund, the Jamaica Children's Service Society and the Caribbean Centre for the Deaf all consider Cansave their partner in development. As well, Cansave supports 10 boys a year The women of the. Auxiliary to Clinton Public Hospital were treated to a delightful coffee party at the home of Mrs. Doug Bartliff. The attractive Christmas decorations were not only conducive to a jolly time, the ladies also worked. Mrs, W, J. Harnett, 1st Vice-President, chaired the business meeting in the absence of the president, During December, the Madeline Lane Auxiliary will service the travelling cart. ,Mrs, Alex Haddy offered to supply the cart during December. It was suggested that a green plant be placed in each of the new solaria. Mrs. F. Fingland offered to place poinsettias during the Christmas season. Some patients had asked if large clocks could be placed ,in the solaria. Many patients have difficulty reading smaller watches. Miss Elliott, superintendent of nursing, mentioned that the Hospital would soon be on the metric system, and the clocks in the two operating rooms could possibly be moved to the solaria. for technical training through Operation Friendship, and helps 500 children and families through the sponsorship program. It all began humbly, Robin Hurst, a CUSO volunteer working with the Jamaica Save the Children Fund in 1964, recalls: "We had written to every possible aid source — our basic-school children were crammed in hot buildings with untrained teachers and no materials at all — and the only large-scale response came from Cansave." Now the Canadian International Development Agency thinks enough of Cansave's work in the Caribbean to support it with special grants. Thanks to Canadian generosity and West Indian hard work, the program has expanded far beyond that initial, offer of 40 sponsorships in 144. That's why Cahlave asks. for your donation with the assurance that — it does make a difference. Saftity (ips Traffic noise has been bothering people for a long time. One of the earliest attempts to control this form of pollution was recorded in the "Times of London" September 11, 1829, says the Ontario Safety League. The newspaper reported that police officers seized the horses of a stagecoach because the Lord Mayor complained of the disturbance and noise. * ** Although traffic is getting thicker all the time in North America, streets and highways are steadily becoming safer. The Ontario Safety League quotes these figures of the U.S. death rate — that is, number of deaths per 100 million miles driven, 1935 — 15.9; 1940 — 11,4;1945 — 11.3; 1950 7.6; 1955 — 6.4; 1960 — 5.3; 1965 — 5.5;1970 — 4.9. Under the 'expert guidance of Mrs. W. RYan, the ladies settled into work to make the Christmas Day' tray favours for the patients., The nominating committee was named and asked, to bring in the 1972 slate of officers at the annual meeting Monday Jan. 3, 1972 at the Clinton, Public Hospital. All conveners of committees are to present a in Christmas Plants can be used to good advantage as part of the Christmas decor. They can also be a distinctive gift for someone on your shopping list, says J. Hughes, Horticultural Specialist with the Ontario Department of Agriculture and Food. There are several plants that can be used for these purposes, he says. Poinsettia - The poinsettia is a popular favorite as a decorative plant at Christmas time. The true blossoms 'are inconspicuous and it is the bright red bracts surrounding the flowers that give it its distinctive beauty. . Since conditions in the average home are not favorable for poinsettias, the plants soon drop the decorative bracts. They should be watered well without soaking the soil. The plants require a high light intensity and therefore should be placed in a sunny window. They should also be protected from drafts as well as rising air currents from radiators and other heat registers. After the leaves have fallen, the plant should be placed where the temperature ranges between 40 and 50 degrees F. The soil should be allowed to dry out completely during this resting stage. Next Spring, when all danger of frost is over, the plant can be placed in a sunny location in the garden. Frequent waterings will ensure adequate foliage development over the summer months. ' Azalea - The azalea is a popular potted plant for Christmas. The single and semi-double forms re common in many shades of red, orange and white. A room temperature below 60 degrees fahrenheit at night and full sun during the day will extend bloom in the home. Daily watering and syringing the foliage will help prevent leaf drop. Cyclamen - Cyclamens are grown as potted plants and range in color from white to many shades of red. Although very beautiful, it is;one of the most difficult plants to grow in home conditions. The flower buds blast and the foliage turns yellow quickly unless the plant is provided with a night temperature of 50 deo. F, 60 to 65 de. F during the day, plus sunlight. Kalanchoe - These plants are small and compact, and bear red flowers in clusters above the foliage. They are usually available throughout the winter. For extended bloom, they require cool temperatures, full sunlight, and constantly moiet soil. After flowering, the plants can be retained for their foliage if they receive direct sunlight. Ungainly growth will result if they receive too little sunlight, Chrysanthemums Among Clinton ,Nov4flecprd, Thursday. -Pecember 16, 971 3 AT APPLIANCE CLEARANCE ONLY WASHER:-DRYERR si A 4•195 1 Reg, $159.95 — NOW ait ONLY FREEZER - 22 cu. ft.
