Bossin's Home Remedy for Nuclear War will appear one night only at the Blyth Memorial Hall on Thursday, Oct. 15 at 8 p.m. This one man musical comedy show is theatre with a definite point of view: anti-nuclear, pro - peace. This will be a lively and enlighten- ing evening for anyone interested in learn- ing more about the issues of peace and nuclear disarmament - while having fun and being entertained. Readers may be curious as to why two quite different organizations would join forces to bring this event to Huron County. Both the Medical Society and Women To - TO day are primarily involved in promoting health and we strongly believe that peace is a health issue. We are supported by the World Health Organization which names peace as a fundamental condition and pre- requisite for health. Itis not only the potential total loss of life on the planet that nuclear build up threatens. Our mental health is also af- fected as we face the despair of an uncer- tain future. Women Today and the Medical Society are also both commited to social responsibility. When tax dollars are diverted into nuclear armaments, funds are diverted from the quality medical ser- vices and innovative health promotion ac- tivities that is our work here in Huron County. We also believe that working together peacefully and co-operatively on a local level is one more way of working toward global peace. We invite your readers to participate with us in this endeavour by at- tending Bossin's Home Remedy for Nuclear War. Respectfully, Beth Fulton, President, Women Today Peter Englert, President, Huron County Medical Society Buy the food your neighbour grows Did you know? : -in 1900, one farmer fed 12 people. Today, one farmer feeds 90 people. -there are 15 million acres of farmland in Ontario. -130,000 to 150,000 people work on Ontario's 82,000 farms. But that's just the tip of the iceberg. People are employed making the machinery, fuel, fertilizer, feed and chemicals needed to produce food, pro- cessing, packaging, transporting and sell- ing food. For example, 87,000 people work in th6 wholesale and retail distribution of agricultural and food products. -only the U.S. and the Netherlands spend a smaller part of their disposable income on food than Canadians do. We're spending less on food than we did in 1960 when food took 21.6 percent of the Canadian family's disposable income. To- day, we spend only 12 percent of our disposable income on food prepared at home. On average, a Canadian spends $1,650 annually on food. Of that, $110 goes to the farmer.

This is of great concern to us all because it will greatly affect Unicef's work on behalf of the world's forgotten children." These comments were made by Mr. Col- in Rainsbury, Deputy Executive Director of Marketing for Unicef Canada; when he was asked about the possible effect a postal disruption could have on this year's Unicef greeting card program. Mr.. Rainsbury is asking Canadians to follow this procedure . during the postal strike for ordering Unicef greeting cards: -If you have not received your Unicef card brochure, contact your nearest pro- vincial Unicef office or call 1-800-268-6364 and a brochure will be forwarded to you. If you already have your brochure and want to order cards, call the above number anytime and place your order with the operator. To maintain efficiency, all. orders received on the 800 number or by mail through provincial Unicef offices will be sent by parcel delivery service until the. postal strike is over.
