Home My WebLink AboutClinton News-Record, 1972-12-14, Page 15Think Safe-Tree first at Christmas. Choose a 'fresh cut tree' with a high moisture con- tent says the Ontario Safety League, Bend one of the needles gently. If it breaks, the tree is too dry. Try another. When you are ready to put up your tree, bring it in from its cool storage place out of doors and cut 2 inches diagonally from the tree's base. Stand the tree in a container of water and refill it daily to a level above the cut line. Keep away from fireplaces, radiators, televisions and other sources of heat. Use only CSA approved lighting sets and inspect yearly for frayed cords and damaged sockets. If an extension cord is required, never run it under a rug, where heavy traffic could damage the cord's protective covering. Lights are best left on for short periods of time only, Remember to turn tree lights off when you. go to bed or leave Recreation tips This is Snowmobile Safety Week in Ontario. The whole purpose of a 'safety week' is to inundate the public •-by every possible medium with every conceivable idea which the pur- ported experts think will prevent accidents and fatalities. Druing Snowmobile Safety Week, December 10-16, there are just two ideas that the On- tario Safety League would like the snowmobiling public to seriously consider: 1. Over 3 /4 of all fatal snowmobile accidents in On- tario occurred on public thoroughfares. .A snowmobile is designed to tir/el on snow, where the track that propels it and breaks it and the skis which steer it can get sufficient grip to perform efficiently. On the hard-packed and often icy surface of a public thorough- fare frequented by motor vehicle traffic, the snowmobile becomes difficult to steer or stop. This lack of control com- bined with the close proximity of fast moving cars and trucks produces an extremely hazar- dous situation, The first snowmobile fatality of the 1972-73 season was a snowmobile-motor vehicle collision. 2, Drunken snowmobile operators were involved in a high percentage of snowmobile accidents in Ontario during the 1971-72 season. It is the con- sidered opinion of many ex- perienced snowmobilers that the snowmobile requires more skill for safe operation than an automobile; so how can anyone expect to safely operate one of these machines with their ability impaired. There is no truth 10 the rumor that the Town is planning a big party and are building a giant tank to hold all the liquor they will be serving. Actually, its the new 65,000 gallon settling tank at Clinton's new sewage treatment plant. Work is proceeding on schedule for the $270,000 project.

CARL NI tVIINGWAY Safety deposit boxes from $5! tree for solaria Last week I had the opportunity to attend the anntial zone meeting of United Dairy-Poultry Co-Operative, I'm still a member of that organization by way of shares accumulated from the sale of eggs though I am no longer a patron as I went out of the poultry business some fen years ago when it became the practice of the trade to pay from 6 to ten cents more for Grade A large eggs picked up from the large producer than for equal quality eggs delivered to the grading station by the small producer. Now that there is a Marketing Plan and quota control produc- tion on flocks of 500 or over, it is a temptation to try the hens again, The trade, I am told, must pay equal price for equal quality for eggs delivered to the grading station. I think the farm flock fed on home grown grain plus concentrate er skim milk could very well be profitable in the not too distant future, In spite of the strong promotion favouring specialization, I think there is more profit and security in.livestock production if a grain eater and a forage eater are kept. This, of course, is to increase the farmer's efficiency, which seems to be a rather foolish objective in the light of the infor- mation given at the meeting. One farmer now produces enough food for ,44 other persons which is ample proof of his efficiency; yet he is lower on the economic totem pole than ever. The average net income of the far- mer is $3890,00 while the non-farm net income average is $7197, The number of farmers, from '66 to '71 dropped by 24 percent and now only represents 7 percent of the population. (I wonder why?) He contributes mightily to the economy. Farmers purchase 30 percent of Canada's power fuel — 40 per [cent of the rubber, iron, and steel and $310 million is spent on transportation of produce and supplies, Since the meeting, I happened to pick up some more figures. Ac- cording to statistics, the gross farm income for 1972 will be four billion dollars and the amount paid out by government in unem- ployment benefits and welfare to the unemployed will be two billion dollars. Half the GROSS income of Canadian farmers would be required to provide for the unemployed!! But what of the farmer's net income? It is considered fair to estimate the net farm income at 25 per- cent of the gross. Then we can say that Cariada's unemployed have a net income of double the net income of Canada's farmers — and we feel sorry for the unemployed? And remember that the percent of population is about equal. Frank Finland offered to con, tribute two poinsettia plants. Tray favors for Christmas Day will be donated by Londesboro W.I., for Boxing Day by HolmesuilIe U,C.W. and New Years by the Dinettes, The Auxiliary would like to take this opportunity of thanking the many groups and individuals who give of their time and talents to bring com- fort and cheer to those in hospital, All committee chairmen are asked to have -their annual reports ready for the Jan. 8th meeting. At the conclusion of the meeting, a delicious lunch was served by the hostess. The December meeting of the Hospital Auxiliary was held last Monday at the home of Mrs. Orland Johnson with a good attendance of members present. Mrs. Paul Walden and Mrs. W. Harrett were in charge of the business session, An in- teresting letter was road from a former bursary winner, Miss Hazel Collins, RN, of Kirkland Lake, The cart will be staffed by the A.C.W. of Middletons for the first half of December and the Eleta Sigma Phi the last two weeks. It was decided to purchase a tree and decorations for the second floor solaria. Mrs. replace a 15 amp fuse with a larger size, On Christmas morning don't let the hustle and bustle of opening gifts get the better of you. ,Gift wrappings should be disposed of immediately, but never burned in the fireplace. Even under the best of con- ditions, a fresh cut tree will last little more than a week without dropping needles and drying out. Dispose of it before it becomes a danger, the room or house, Choose bright, decorative ornaments for your tree, but make sure they are non-flammable, Can- dles are popular, especially at Christmas, but should be used with extra caution and never on or near the tree, Beware using string lights for a metallic tree. Because metal is a conductor of electricity, an off-tree spotlight is better. If a fuse blows redistribute load to other circuits and never ADELAIDE DANIELS SAYS Personalized The finest service: quail Clinton 1.111m Mom Imibm 1 I VALUABLE COUPON ARE YOU REALLY LIVING? Overweight is as much a symptom of malnutrition as under- weight. Just as soon as the missing food values are supplied, the water and fat generally roll ofT. Of course, a happy life is a positive one, so negative thinking will never help to stimulate or replace any burdensome weight. With a new mental outlook you will soon replace all dis- couraging thoughts - about dieting and replace them with helpful ones. t've known many women who have stated. "I'll never get married or attract a man I'm too fat!', Think instead: Dieting is trimming my figure, sharpening my wits and brightening my mind, Taking off those unwanted pounds offers you more health and beauty and youthfulness. Your activity will increase fifty to one hundred percent. You'll find your food bills less so will have money at the end of the. month to spend on more fashionable clothes for your trimmer figure at the end of the month sales, As you lose those unwanted pounds yo.u'll feel more like doing and participating in more outside activities. At less weight, even a casual walk becodies more pleasurable and exhilarating, and when the local bowling or curling team needs a replacement, you'll be only too happy to join — you'll feel like exercising. , Have you ever watched a slender person over a period of time select food? Invariably, they will select low-cMorie, starch- free foods. They just naturally prefer the "slenderizing" foods, or have cultivated an appetite for them. At the end of the day they have eaten a tremendous amount of vitamins, minerals, proteins, but fewer calories than the average overweight. Treat your appetite like a small child and train it. Revitalize your life, lose those unwanted pounds and gain that extra energy for really living.
