Clinton News-Record, 1974-12-12, Page 22If we help the childien while they're still children, their children will be able to help themselves. The United Nations Children's Fund believes that the children of the developing nations need more than just food and medicine if we are ever to break the vicious circle of poverty, That's why, for years,UNICEF has helped provide the tools to help people help them- selves and their future generations. Things like well-digging rigs for the water-scarce regions of Africa, nutrition classes for expeCtant mothers in South America, and school supplies for the children of Asia. 'Of course we provide food and medicine, too. But if we can give these children something more, something they can use to build a decent life, then someday maybe the world won't need a UNICEF anymore. Please send as much as you can spare to UNICEF today. UNICEF Canada (Donations) 443 Mt.

The Sunday School rooms of W,W, church had been beautifully decorated by Adelle Jervis and her committee. The most senior members present were Mrs, McGill and Mrs. Sutter, After everyone was seated, a couple came in and were in- vited to help themselves, because it was assumed that they were to be on the program. The visitors soon realized that the ladils present were mostly past the age of the group they were to speak to; so they thanked the ladies for a delicious dinner, laughed with everyone about their error and left to go and find the right church. Entertainment was as In her report to the Decem: ber meeting of the Women's Auxiliary to the Clinton Public Hospital, Miss K. Elliott, direc- tor of nursing, stated, "The fur- niture in the hospital waiting room has constant hard use, and has become very shabby." The members felt that replacement was necessary, especially since this area is the first that many visitors see at the hospital. It was decided also that a bench at the front door for seating while removing overshoes was also needed. Miss Elliott was authorized to order this furniture, as a gift from the Auxiliary. The December meeting was held at the home of Mrs. Orland Johnston, who, with the assistance of Mrs. K. Hanly, provided a delectable luncheon, following the morning meeting. Mrs. J. Cochrane reported that Mrs. Barlow's class at the Queen Elizabeth School in Goderich has offered to stamp the cards for the Penny Sale. The president, Mrs. W.

Nancy Hern's two Scot- her that the cards would be ,printed early in the new year and sent to the school to allow as much time as• possible for stamping. The auxiliary discussed plans for instituting Meals on Wheels in Clinton. This matter will be pursued further in the new year. It was felt that there was a need for this service, as,other towns in the county such as Wingharn, Seaforth, and Goderich i have successful operations. Mrs. M. Corrie reported that a lap blanket (for patients in wheel chairi) had been donated to the hospital by the I.O.D.E. and that a second was promised. To make up the dozen needed, it was suggested that thermal blankets in bright colours be purchased. Before the conclusion of the meeting, the secretary, Mrs. P. Walden, asked that annual reports be prepared in advance by the conveners so that a copy may be handed to the secretary at the January meeting. Mrs. Haddy moved that the meeting be adjourned, tish dances were much enjoyed. A skit, with Billie Stewart as Saint Peter and Adelle Jervis, Jean Johns and Jean Currie waiting to enter the Pearly Gates, was amusing, The three ladies had to tell .what they had done to qualify for entry, St. Peter said he'd have been bet- imprpssed if they had been The November meeting of the Clinton Baptist Women's Auxiliary was held Tuesday, Nov. 19th at the home of Mrs. Hazel Clifford.
