Mrs. Elsie Tuckey conducted the meeting. The topic, taken by Mrs. Amos and Mrs. Yvonne Reynolds, was "Women Who Have Made a Difference". Rev. Mary Mill was the guest speaker, • Miss Mills is the deacon of Kirkton and Saintsbury Anglican churches. She spoke about how she became the first female deacon in the Anglican Church. She answered many questions from the members with regard to her profession. After the speaker was thanked by Mrs. Reynolds, refreshments were served by Mrs. Amos and Mrs. Rosemary Schaeffer. " Since Ontario's new safety belt law came into effect, many people have been calling the Ontario Safety League for ad- vice, particularly pafents of small children Under the new legislation, drivers are responsible for making sure that any of their passengers under the age of sixteen are properly restrained. Yet what do you do with a child who is too big for the child car-seats available on the market and too small to use the safety belt assembly installed in your car? Because of their undeveloped pelvic structures, children under 40 or 50 pounds should be protected by special restraining devices capable of distributing collision forces over a large area of the body. There are few if any special restraining devices readily available for children just over that weigh) . They must wear standard safety belts. However, the standard lap and shoulder assembly is not recommended for individuals under four feet seven inches in height. If the shoulder belt stretches across the child's face or neck, the child is too small. The back seat of a car is safer than the front and the centre of the back seat — away from the doors — is the best position. Parents may find a booster cushion helpful in positioning the lap belt at the correct angle (45 degrees), low over the child's hips, especially in bench-type seats, It not only improves the belt angle, it improves the child's ability to see out the windows.

County honours went to Nancy By PAUL SALMON As everyone in south-Western Ontario realizes, Old Man Winter let the meanness of his disposition be known during the last week. In the Mt. Carmel area, however, activities were not stifled, but seemed instead, to be continuing with even greater force. One of the main reasons that activities did not come to a complete stand-still, was the action taken by the family of Charles Dietrich. While some Mt. Carmel residents like myself looked sickly at snow-filled driveways, Mr. Dietrich's sons, Joe and Chuck, used' their father's snow-plough to free many of us from our snowy prisons. The entire upper portion of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Church is at present being fully inslutated by a London insulating form, and hopefully the job will be com- pleted by the time this newspaper is in the reader's hands, Traffic continues to whiz by the doors of Mt. Carmel resident's homes with incredible speed, since snowmobiles seem to be comprising the bulk of vehicles travelling on Mt. Carmel area roads. Peter Koens of London recently resigned from his post as teacher of grade eight pupils at Our Lady of Mt. Carmel School. Times- Advocate readers will recall an article in which Mr. Koens discussed his experience as a teacher working on behalf of the Department of Indian Affairs, Ti will also be of help in some earlier model cars containing lap belts that cannot be adjusted snug eeough to the small frame of a young child. Newer model cars do not have this problem. A fairly light block of styrofoam would make a good booster cushion. For comfort's sake, it should not extend beyond the bend of the child's knee, Sort cushions should not be used for this purpose. They crush under the weight of the child and, in the event of a sudden stop, slide' from under the child. Once the child is tall enough to see out of the car windows, the cushion may be omitted provided the lap belt in the car will snug down on his or her hips. When wearing safety belts, children should sit up straight with their backs against the back of the car seat. This way, the lap belt will stay low on the hips and not ride up over the vulnerable stomach area. The Ontario. Safety League offers yet another reminder: safety belts are designed for individual protection, , Never strap two children into one belt or hold a child on your lap and strap both it and yourself together. A woman driving the car pool in a station wagon carrying ten children ran a stop sign. A policeman whistled and yelled. "Don't you know when to stop?" "Officer," she yelled back indignantly, "I'll have you un- derstand these are not all mine."

Although I must be thought of as rather cruel in my reporting of recent trips made by Mt. Carmel area residents to sunny southern climes, yet another trip, sure to stir up the reader's envy, must be reported, The daughter of Mr. & Mrs. Wilfrid Hogan, Rita, and her husband, Jerry Hartman, left by plane on Tuesday, January 13, for a week in Jamaica. The London couple are returning late on the night of Wednesday, January 21. The couple's two sons, Brian and Gary, were fortunate enough to get an extra week holidays, and are staying here in Mt. Carmel with their grandparents, Mr. & Mrs. Hogan, while their parents are away. Anniversary party for Whalen couple By MRS.

Crediton 234-6382 J mended the addition of citric acid in order to increase the acid level to a point where the botulinus bacteria would not'grow. Some varieties of tomatoes grown in recent years have proved to have a lower acid content than was previously common. Since low-acid foods are subject to harboring the botulinus bacteria which can form a lethal toxin, specific care must be taken to ensure that hdme-canned tomatoes are high enough in acid and processed sufficiently to eliminate this possibility. If you failed to process your tcmatoes according to these procedures, precautions should be taken to ensure that the tomatoes are safe for con- sumption. If a jar of home-canned tomatoes is foaming or has an unusual appearance or odor, discard it without tasting. If there is no noticeable sign, empty the contents of the jar into a saucepan and boil them for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, before tasting. If the toxin is present in the jars, the 10 minutes of boiling will destroy it, making the tomatoes safe to eat. Suggest booster cushion "for child's safety belt Many members receive awards Mt.
