The two officials wig investi-
gate three different proposals:
Moving the present building;
Erecting a new township .of -
flee; or
Establishing the office along-
side or inside the town hall.
The action results from re-
quests from Zurich village trust-

Life Insurance
aids Heart Foundation
'Many people are making good recoveries from severe
heart ttacks. New advances in medical science and
surgery are saving their lives. However, many more lives
may be saved if, through research, the causes of heart
disease can be determined.
Research of this nature is a long, range prOject. It
requires highly trained workers and the most modern
equipment. These cost mohey.
Last year, with timely financial assistance from the
Life Insurance Companies, the National Heart Founda-
tion o( Canada began to correlate and step up the tempo
of research into the causes of heart disease.
This is just one of many ways in which the Life
Insurance Companies in Canada are encouraging
medial research that will help Canadians live longer
and more happily.
