A time to relax, forget your cares, recharge the batteries ,-- and all that. But no matter how good the sea- son of tans and tents, barbecues and bicycles may be for your health and well-being, it also brings its own health hazards, One of these, of course, is trav- elling itself. Have your car thor- oughly checked before—setting' off; wear seatbelts; try to keep children occupied; share the driving, if pos- sible; let passengers change seats occasionally; stop at regular inter- vals to stretch your legs; don't drive when you're tired. Always carry your OHIP card with you when you travel, and note the location of medical services wherever you stay. If you're vaca- tioning out of the country, make sure you've fulfilled all vaccination requirements for the place you're going to. If you're driving — at home or abroad carry a basic first aid kit. If you're boating, always wear a lifejacket and listen to the weather forecast before you set sail; if you're swimming, always do it in company. Make sure the mushrooms you pick really are mushrooms and try to recognize potentially danger- ous plants and berries. Perhaps the most common of these is poison ivy, a low-growing plant with three leaflets on each stalk and often with greenish-white berries. The skin area that has been in contact with poison ivy should be washed with strong household soap, and treated with calamine lotion. Bees, wasps, hornets, mosquitoes and blackflies may also decide to Seaforth where the Hostess contest winners will be selec- ted. This year's barbecue is ex- pected to draw over 2,000 visitors. A pork cooking demon- stration will be featured at the Zurich Bean Festival while some event at the Blyth The Goderich Pro-Life Group recently held an informal gar-, den party at the home of the chairman, Mrs, Pat Osborn to wind up the close of the "One Million Name Petition" to protect the unborn child. Special guests who attended were Mr. and Mrs. Bob Huron on Thursday and Friday, August 15 and 16 at Blyth United Church, Blyth, and for the Clinton area on Thursday and Friday, August 22 and 23 at Wesley-Willis United Church, Clinton.

As a preventive measure, stay away from insects' nests, and warn children not to aggravate bees, wasps and hornets in particular. Insect stings can produce serious effects, particularly with persons sensitive to their venom. Most animals, some insects, and certain reptiles will attack if they feel threatened. This is true of the only poisonous snake in Ontario the small massasauga rattler, which inhabits a 20-mile area along the shorelines of Georgian Bay, Lake Huron, and possibly Lake Erie. If you are in the area, be aware of the location of the nearest antivenin depot. Since rabies continues to exist in the wildlife of Ontario, don't approach; observe from a distance. Foxes, skunks, bats and racoons are affected with rabies more fre- quently than other animals, but any animal exhibiting peculiar behavior should be given wide berth. 'Pet dogs and cats taken on vaca- tion should be vaccinated against rabies at least 30 days before the vacation period. In the event of attack by a sus- pected rabid animal, see a physician immediately, By law, all rabies cases or suspected cases must be reported to the local Medical Officer of Health. Hazards from fish hooks and other possibly tetanus-inducing ob- jects, such as nails or strong thorns, are of cgurse greater in the vacation season. And finally, there's the sun itself, Don't try to get that tan all on the first day — do it gradually. Tresher Reunion is being developed, Free pork recipes are distributed throughout the county in most stores. Any store not contacted and who wishes recipes for 'their customers part obtain them from the County Perk Association.

The major part of the book is devoted to the abortion controversy in recent Canadian history. It traces the.development in favor of a change ,in the Criminal Code in the light of related at- titudes towards birth control, divorce, authority and pluralism of moralities. It examines the attitude of the Canadian press, the Canadian Bar Association, the Canadian 'Medical. Association, the four political parties, the churches, and many others who con- tributed to the debate. A Tribute to the Media was given in the form of a huge college.

It's a mouth- watering blend of marinated tomatoes, green pepper and onion that can be prepared in mere minutes, say Food Specialists at the Ontario Food Council, Ministry of Agriculture and Food. This salad adds color, coolness and nutrition to summer picnics, buffets and barbecues. Good nutrition doesn't take a holiday so, even on warm sum- mer days, meals should still be (continued from page 1A) there a time limit to speeches, ("There should be," Jack said, "some of the members have the gift of the gab.") or if any mem- bers have fallen asleep in the Legislature ("It's not uncom- fritin 'Of" "fide *""tomeone snoozing.") With every weekday taken up by legislature sittings, commit- tee meetings and such, an MPF might look forward to a quiet weekend at home. But no such luck. ' "Your time is not your own in this business," Jack said. "Weekends are the only times your constituents have a chance to see you." When he arrives home Friday evening, he has a list of phone messages that have come in during the week. Every one must be answered. And while planned around the basic food families. "Ontario Salad", made with the vegetable family, contributes necessary vitamins and minerals. Tomatoes and green pepper are particularly distinguished family members, as they both are excellent sources of vitamin C, a vitamin often lacking in the diet of many Canadians. "Ontario Salad" is great for warm summer days. Because it can be made up quickly, the cook has more time to enjoy the summer sunshine without he remains home, there is a steady stream of visitors or the constant jangle of the telephone until his return on Sunday, Then there are all the social functions that an MPP is expec- ted to attend, the fairs and of- ,ficial openings, ';,,,ther presen- tations, the speeches and Meeting people, always meeting people. "They come from all walks of life and you have to remember everybody's name. That's very difficult," he said. "The biggest drawback to this business is sacrificing your family life. It's an added responsibility for your wife too. She has to make the decisions at home because a• member has his constituents to look after." . • But despite the \hours and the work involved, Jack can still say, "1- enjoy it all."
