BY JANIS ALHESON
October has been a busy
month for the residents of
CaIlander Nursing Home.
Frank Dunn won both the
Bingo and the bowling
championships for October.
Many of the residents will be
attempting to relieve him of
these trophies in November.
On Thanksgiving Day, re-
sidents were treated to a
lovely selection of songs by
the "Blyth Singers" from the
Christian Reformed Church
in Blyth. It was a very
pleasant afternoon._
On October 11, the
residents had a Tea. Dance in
the nursing home for which
some residents baked some
special 'treats. Freda Pipe,
Mr. Edward Rollard's
daughter, played the piano
and Mr. Charles Buck played
his accordion. Mr. Carl
Lawatski played a varied
selection of records for the
residents to dance to.
On October 16, three of
Callander's residents at-.
tended a Tea Dance put on
by the Wingham Centre for
the Homebound in the
Wingham Armouries.
Martha and Earl Heywood
provided the entertainment,
singing some songs, and
performing a mini-magic
show. A dance followed.
On October 22, members
of the Brussels Catholic
Women's League and their
children helped James
Lawrie and Frank Dunn
celebrate their October
birthdays. The residents
enjoyed the singing and the
piano playing.
On October 26, the St.
John's Church Sunday
School Choir sang for the
residents after which each
resident received a hand-
made craft from the children.
On October 28, the
Men nonite Young People's
Choir entertained residents
with a beautiful selection of
hymns which the residents
enjoyed very much.
October ended with a bang
when Mrs. Huether's Grade
2 goblins and witches from
Brussels Public School
treated the residents to an
afternoon of singing and
apple bobbing. This event was
enjoyed by all the residents.
To celebrate the Inter-
national Year of the Child a
special assembly was held in
the Brussels Public school
auditorium on Tuesday of
last week. Dave Haslett, a
secondary school teacher
from Goderichlwas the guest
speaker. Mr. Haslett showed
slides and told about his
teaching experience in New

to be both interesting and
informative.

Do's and don'ts of heating with wood.
How to heat your home safely with wood fuels.
With energy costs rising, many
Ontarians are rekindling an old
flame—wood fires.. Wood used
properly can provide a cheap,
clean. renewable heat source.
Used improperly, however, wood
burning can be dangerous.
Whether your stove is of ornate
design .or a more modern stove,
they both have one
thing in common; they
each need proper
installation. Here are
some of the do's and
don'ts on heating
with wood:
DO — BUY only
units which have
been certified for '
wood use, by the
Canadian Standards
Association (CSA),
or the Underwriter's Laboratories
of Canada (ULC).
E DO — HIRE an expert to
certify that your flue pipe
and chimney are in good
condition to handle the higher
temperatures.
q DO_— CONTACT your
insurance agent before
installing the system.' Be sure
you're covered in case of fire.
E DO — 'CHECK with your
municipality before any work
begins. You'll probably need
a building permit.
• DO — ENSURE adequate
clearances are provided as
listed in the Ontario Building
Code and other guides
available at your local library.
0 DON'T USE flammable
liquids when lighting the fire
.like gasoline, kerosene or
charcoal lighter fluids. Wood
chips, kindling, shavings or
newspapers are the safest
startup materials.
q DON'T — KEEP any
flammable materials near
your wood burner.
0 DON'T — FORGET to clean
your stovepipes and flues
regularly to avoid dangerous
flammable. build-up.
0 DON'T — TAKE CHANCES
WITH FIRE. Teach your
children about fire safety too.

questions about heating with
wood fuels, contact your local
