Of the many thousands of dress- ings given to patients by the Hamilton Unit last year, most were Made by volunteers from women's organizations and other dressings groups in the district. Mrs. R.

This should visibly strengthen the Associa- tion at the "grass roots level" and make it possible for the Midwestern Ontario Development Assdciation to become a far more effective body, County Councils appear to be taking the lead in the future of Regional Development in the south-western section of the pro- vince. Already three counties have joined the Georgian Bay Development Association on a county-wide basis and recent developments in MODA would appear to indicate a trend that may result in establishing true Regional Development on an ef- fective, efficient and sound found- ation. With this kind of support and participation the "Moda means business" program is off to a flying start. Membership in the Midwestern Ontario Development Association passed the 1965 figures with the joining of Huron County. At the morning session of Hur- on County Council on March 25th in Goderich, a motion was passed initiating membership in MODA on a county-wide basis. This brings 26 municipalities and townships into the Association at an overall county fee of $5,- 350.32. This action follows an earlier move by Wellington County on March 21 when they endorsed Association support on a county- wide basis, bringing 21 munici- palities and townships into MODA. Between the two counties, the Association now has a member- ship totalling 47 out of a possible 80 townships and municipalities. This is an increase of 20 so far over last year's membership of 27. Under the new fee arrange- it has organized activities and money is required for many of its programs. To raise money and administer the budget, the community has a council elected by the residents. The housing area is divided into six wards and each ward elects two councillors. All residents, 18 years and over, regardless of their service affiliation, are en- titled to vote. For the first time in the hist- ory of the community, the po- sitions of mayor and deputy mayor were filled by a democratic The inaugural meeting of the new community council for Huron park was held March 31, at Ca- nadian Forces Base, Centralia. At the meeting, F,'L A. E. Fiske, the outgoing mayor for 1965-66 handed the reigns of office over to F/L R. E. Greenfield, the new mayor-elect and his council. Huron Park is the Department of National Defence housing area located north-west of the village of Centralia and it contains the permanent married quarters for personnel serving at CFB, Cen- tralia.

Perhaps because of the facts contained in these two statements a fear has developed among peo- ple that leads to an attitude of withdrawal from further know- ledge of cancer. This attitude, in turn, tends to frustrate the ef- forts of those who work to defeat cancer by encouraging the recog- nition of danger signals, leading to early diagnosis; an important factor in successful treatment. -However important it is to realize the menace that cancer is, if this awareness prompts us to determine to seek it out for early treatment and to provide adequate funds for the ultimate defeat of the disease, it is also important to appreciate the many successes that already have been achieved against cancer. Many cancer patients have suc- cessfully been treated with surg- ery, such as the colectomy opera- tion for patients with rectal can- cers. A Colectomy operation is usually performed to remove an obstruction in the bowel. Part of the intestine is removed and an opening to the bowel is formed on the surface of the abdomen to permit bowel irrigation. With some slight adjustments and per- haps some diet modification, thousands of Canadi an s with colostomies continue to lead normal, active, self-supporting lives. This surely is an important achievement in our battle with cancer. In a Hamilton development for retired citizens, lives Mrs. R. S., a slim alert woman, who spends her days in cooking and cleaning. In one way, Mrs. R. S. is not typical. She is a former cancer patient. Between 1956, when her cancer was first diagnosed, and 1960, Mrs. R. S. had many oper- ations. At times, defeat appeared to be imminent but medical skill and her own spirit won out. After recovering from her colectomy operation in 1960, Mrs. R. S. began to feel well, and she con- tinues to feel well today. Like many colostomy patients, Mrs. R. S. finds it necessary to wear a colostomy bag at all times. She uses a four inch square plastic envelope with a small hole centred on an attach- ed square of adhesive that per- mits adherence to the skin of the abdomen around the colos- tomy opening. For several years, Mrs. R. S. bought her colostomy bags. Only when the retirement of her husband made the expense a burd- en did she approach the local Unit of the Canadian Cancer So- ciety for help. Although colos- tomy bags must be bought ready for use, many of the dressings and services. (c) to develop plans and co- operative projects for the beauti- fication and enhancement of the community; and (d) to provide a channel of communication and liaison be- tween the community and the station. Activities during the past year give some idea of the extent of work which the council does, Supervised playgrounds were op- erated during to summer, at a cost of about $700. This involv- ed engaging supervisors from among the teenaged dependents. A swimming program for in- struction at the various levels was sponsored at a cost of about $1,100. The council also operated a minor baseball program during the summer. During the winter, the com- munity organized minor hockey which costs $700 and $1,300 was spent to provide figure skating instruction for dependents. Other activities sponsored by the council include Teen Town, RCAF Scout and Guide groups, dancing instruction for all ages, ladies' fitness classes and the annual children's Christmas party. An annual bicycle safety program is another important council project. This year's council is com- posed of the following members: Mayor, F/L R. E. Greenfield; deputy mayor, FS K. L. Robert- son; Ward 1, F/L G. H. Knight, and Mrs. R. W. P. Patey; Ward 2, Mr. D. Hilton and Mrs. F. G. Savard; Ward 3, F/L C. K. Crutch, and Mrs. C. R. Bartley; Ward 4, Sgt M. L. Titmarsh and Mrs. R. L. Person; Ward 5, Sgt F. W. Moores and Mrs. Moores; Ward 6, Cpl P. P. Camp- bell and Mrs. Campbell. REMEMBER YOUR SPRING TUNE-UP FOR SAFETY AND PLEASANT DRIVING vote. Also, for the first time, one of the councillors for each ward had to be a dependent wife. These two changes have resulted in a council with a more "civil- ian" flavor. Money required to carry out the various programs for the benefit of the residents is raised by means of a voluntary monthly assessment on each household in Huron Park. This year the amount will be one dollar. Like other councils, this one has commit- tees to organize the various ac- tivities. All sports and recrea- tion activities fall within the area of responsibility of one commit- tee and all social programs fall within the area of responsibility of another. The financial committee and the ways and means committee work together to administer the budget and to determine methods of raising funds. In addition, the responsibility for public rela- tions, management of property and equipment and secretarial duties is assigned to individual councillors. Hydro, sewers, sidewalks, street lighting and general maintenance of the com- munity is the responsibility of the station administration and be- cause of their close contact with conditions in each ward, coun- cilors can pass on suggestions and problems for action by the appropriate DND administrative sections. Huron Park council has as its functions the following: (a) to provide a facility for fostering, planning and organiz- ing community activity among the residents of the married quart- ers. (b) to recruit volunteer lead- ers and workers as required for the various community activities 1957 BUICK sedan. Lic. A-95198 $249 1956 MERCURY sedan. A nice one. Lic.
