The Wingham Advance-Times, 1947-02-20, Page 1Single Copies Five Cents MRS. J. R. LOCKHART HOSPITAL LIFE MEMBER ••••••••••••••• Former Wingham Girl Finds Advance- Times Good Reading This week One Hundred Dollars NOS' received from Mrs. Dr. J. R. Lockhart, (nee Annie Elliott), of Bath, New Brunswick, for a Life Member- ship in the Wingham General Hospital Association. This further evidence of pride in the Old Home Town warms many hearts here where the Elliott family is well and kindly remembered by scores of friends. Dr. and Mrs. Lockhart have made a fine contribution •to the health of their own community in New Brunswick, both through The Medical Profession and Hospitalization. That Mrs. Lock- hart should share that interest by a .generous gift to her old home hospital is worthy of special note because of its very unselfishness. Wingham is fortunate indeed that Mrs. Lockhart has managed a goodly number of visits home during the years she has been resident in New Bruns- wick. We believe no former Wing- hamite gets around to see more friends or spreads more of joy of living in the process than does Mrs. Lockhart, on her visits to town. In between visits she keeps in touch with many Old Home interests through the columns of The Advance-Times. Though Wingham is sorry to lose fine citizens to other communities it is a'source of joy and satisfaction that so many have remembered her kindly and have said so emphatically : by such generous contributions to our New Hospital. A complete list of the membership in the WingEarn General Hospital Assoc- iation is to be published in this paper in the issue of March 5th. Theie are still many in the Hospital Service Area, who have not done their bit to help the committee reach its goal of at least one member per fam- ily and at least One Hundred Life Members. There are few who could slot be a yearly member at $5,00 per year. Many could be six year mem- bers for $25.00, or twelve year mem- bers for $50.00. A. Life Membership -costs only $100.00 and with the splen- -did example set by fornier Wingham- ites the committee is encouraged to be- lieve that One Hundred is easily Pos- sible.. There . are over sixty Life Members now . who automatically be- come members of the Hospital Cen- tury Club when it is organized. At least be a member of the Association, -be a Life Member if You can. Send your membership fee to-W. H.

The Aid-to-China campaign is in its last week, Special offerings are being made next Sunday in a good many churches. The prospect is that the County will reach its objective, if the contributions keep rolling in day after clay, through the week and if there is a generous church offering next Sunday. The following is' an -ap. proximate summary: Exeter and district $ 3000.00 Goderich and district • $ 2200.00 Wingham and district ..... 2000.00 Clinton and district $ 1800.00 Seaforth and district .... $ 1200,00 County Council 'Grant $ 500.00 $10700.00 As the County objective is $12,000, additional contributions of $1800 are solicited. Beyond that it is the hope of the County Chairman that Huron County will go well over its objective. Thrott- ghout the war years there never was a call that Huron County did not over, subscribe, Every Victory Loan went away beyond its minimum objective, The Christmas Seal Campaign went 150% beyond the mark set. Now it is the turn of the Aid-tO,China fund to build up well beyond $12,000.00. Mr. R, Creech is to be congratulat- ed in leaching Exeter and district to such a magnificent total, Ono week remains in which the other districts of the County can forge ahead towards their goals and beyond then The question now is how far beyond its minitnum objective are the •people of Huron going to carry their Aid-to- China Campaign?

WESLEY ELIMINATES LOCAL JUVENILES. Held Annual. Meeting Last Week At Goderich At the annual meeting of the Huron County Children's Aid Society held in Goderich, on the 11th of February, the report of Mrs. Chaffee, the Superin- tendent, disclosed that many unusual demands had been made upon the Soc- iety during the last twelve months. The ending of the war warranted the disbanding of the Dependents' Board of Trustees, a dominion wide organiza- tion which had been operating for slightly over four years in behalf of dependents of men in the armed forces. During that tune, applications for as- sistance were received from 510 people, in Huron County; these applications amounted to $50,368.00 of which $34,- 914.36 was granted. This was consid- ered by ,,the more than usual numbers °GAL at the annual meeting, as reflecting a , great deal of credit on the discretion used by the investigating officers of the Children's Aid Society upon whom the duty of making the investigations had been placed by the Department. Mrs. Chaffee's report also disclosed that the first year of peace had brought many new problems to the' Society, and those problems had not come from the returned men, but from civilian groups that had become accustomed to the excitements caused by the large populations created by the presence of four air ports in this vicinity. A num- ber of soldiers had married widows with children and on their return have been taking 'steps to adopt the children; there was however the odd case of a child born to the wife of a soldier while he was away and which he re- jected on his return, The housing sit- uation created new conditions as shown by the fact that in the year 1940 there were only 13 cases of Child protection; last year they amounted to 39, which was ten more than in 1945. The num- ber of children in care in 1940 was 57, in 1946 there were 83. Every ef- fort is made to keep the family group together as it has been found that a poor parent is often better for a child than a substitute parent, "As a Soc- iety" the• superintendent's report added "we are very conscious of this fact and so go very slowly before breaking up a home," A appeal to try to locate the mother of a woman who was adopted 40 years ago was received. That woman is now the mother of a daughter 17 years of age but the call of the blood is still strong and she is anxious to locate her own mother. This proves the necess- sity for having on record all possible information about both the parents and adoptive parents. Last year .26 adoptions were com- pleted. "This part of our work" stated Mrs. Chaffee, " is the happiest phase and we can forget many of the prob- lems we encounter when we see the love, the security and the advantages waiting for a baby in an adoptive home." In 1940 there were 24 ttninarried Parent cases; we now have 59, 28 new cases arising in 1946. It is the Soc- iety's responsibility to endeavour to se- cure support from the man named as father; this is often difficult but it is encouraging to know that a greater number are accepting their part of the problem and are helping financially. Mrs. Chaffee concluded her report by thanking the staff and others who had assisted in any way during the year. Mr. A. H. Erskine, the treasurer, re- ported on the financial :Operations throughout 1946, The officers elected were: President, A. P. Wilkes; Vice-President, Rev. L. H. Turner; Secretary, A. M. Robert- son; Treasurer, A, H. Erskine; Direc- tors, Mrs. A. Taylor, Miss Wurtele„ Mrs. George Johnston, Major Smith of the.

At 9.30 p.m. over CKNX, Mr. Stuart Beattie, chairman of the' adult commit- tee for Teen Town, thanked all the candidates for working to make the election campaign a success. He said that if this spirit could be carried on into Teen Town activities a worth- while organization would result. The successful candidates were also heard on the air thanking their supporters. Mayor Hobden and Reeve Swanson both emphasized that they would need the aid of the defeated candidates in making Teen Town a going concern. Mr. Sam Burton, Director of Recreat- ion, then voiced his appreciation of the excellent support received not only from teensters but. f rom adults. Spec- ial thanks Were due to CKNX and to The Wingham Advance-Times for helpful publicity and a genuine interest in the election. The- function of a Teen Town was then outlined by M'r. Burton, He also announced that Mr. W. A. Galbraith, Town Clerk, would officiate as the Teen Town Council was sworn into office on Friday evening at eight o'clock at the town hall.

C. T. U. HELD MONTHLY MEETING Lady Bowlers Hold Bridge The ladies of the Wingham Lawn Bowling Club held their February bridge party in the Council Chambers, The February meeting of the Wo- men's Christian Temperance Union was held at the home of Mrs. Frank Collar when a most challenging and inspiring program was enjoyed. A portion of the program was allot- ted to a study of the life of Francis Willard who was the founder of the World's W, C T. U. and a great work- er in the International Union as well as the local organization. The Christ instinct that she had, gave her a great appreciation of others and, perhaps, the most Christ-like characteristic she possessed was her power of forgive- ness. One of Francis Willard's statements which is noteworthy is "Everything is not in the Temperance reform but the temperance reform should be in every- thing." Lieutenant Smith of the Salvation 4rmy brought a most inspiring and thOught!provoking message from the text found in Acts 10:38, 'Sow God anointed Jesus Of Naarzeth with the Holy Ghost and with power, who went about doing good, and healing all that Were oppressed by the devil; for God was with him," A nurtiber of articles on the Tent- perance question were read including "The Menace of the Moderate Drink, Cr", and the Care of Alcoholits," "Where there's drink there's ilanger, Whether Sold by friend or stranger."

On One occasion even beggars contributed towards a fund to help the drought stricken people in our own Provinte of Satketehewan. A vote of thanks was extended to Miss McGowan an motion of R. 0.
