That's the best advice on how to prevent poison ivy. The innocent looking plant that runs wild..along the roadside, up river- banks, frequently around the best looking picnic spots, and sometimes dangerously near to summer cottages and playgrounds, can cause a great deal of summertime discomfort and even serious infection, warns the Health League of Canada. If a word of warning is not suffic- ient and you find yourself in contact with poison ivy—or even with the smoke from burning poison ivy—then here is what to do: 1. Immediately wash the exposed parts of the body with laundry soap and warm water. Make it a thorough washing but do not scrub with a brush. Rinse several times. 2. Apply rubbing alcohol liberally to the exposed areas. 3. Next take a complete shower or tub bath, 4. Dress in clean clothing, and see that clothing which may have been contaminated is cleaned—either by laundering or with a cleaning solvent. 5. If rash appears, commit your doc- tor at once. REMOVE CARTONS FROM IDLE FURNITURE PLANT A few weeks ago the storage of a quantity of cartons in the idle furni- ture plant raised hopes locally that there might be "something doing." The past week saw the removal of the cartons from the plant. There were three transport loads of them, all im- printed with the name of a prominent electrical manufacturing company. The plant is presently being widely advertised for sale an while "hope springs eternal," local citizenry has now pretty much adopted a "wait and see" policy 'as far as operations being resumed at the factory are concerned. —Lucknow Sentinel, —Mrs. W.

However, hay- ing is only approximately one half completed in the county. Farmers re- port they are having considerable dif- ficulty in curing the hay because of the extreme dampness of the ground. All other crops made rapid growth during the week, wheat is commencing to turn colour and although some far- mers report slight rusting, the crop on the whole is above average, There' is still quite a number of heavy cattle in the county which are being held by farmers in hopes of higher prices. FORDWICH NEWS —Miss Ruth Gernhaelder, local tea- cher and Miss Isabelle Speir, teacher at Brussels, left Wednesday for a trip to the Western Provinces. While in the West they will visit with the latter's brother, in Rosetown, Saskatchewan. Children's Playground Two shows nightly, rain or clear.

"It is easy enough to achieve pop- support and raise funds to b'iiid or improve hospitals," points out Dr. Bates, "But the supporters of hospi- tabs too often forget that hospitals are to look after sick people not to keep them well. One day we may have hos- pitals designed as health centres used as a means to disseminate information on how to keep well, but that day has not yet arrived. In the meantime if people generally would put as much enthusiasm and cash into making ef- ficient the societies organized to preach the gospel of good health, the hospitals—and the undertakers—would have fewer customers.
