The Kairshea Women's -Insti- tute held their May meeting on Thursday, May 18 at the home of Mrs. Lloyd MacDougall with the Agriculture and Canadian Indus- tries committee in charge. President, Mrs. Evan Keith opened the meeting with a poem. The roll call, "A story from the horse and buggy days," brought back many hilarious memories of days gone by. The secretary treasurer, Mrs. Lloyd MacDoug- all, read the minutes of the April meeting. The 4-H girls entertained the ladies with a Fashion Show from a their last club, "Consider Your Clothes". • Mrs. Sheila Clarke reported on the many toys bought and donated for the children's room at the Wingham and District Hos- pital. Mrs. Cliff Roulston reviewed the meetings on Unity CONTINUED ON PAGE 11 Voluntary effort important says Jack Burghardt Voluntary effort is important, CFPL TV newsman Jack Burg- hardt told the annual meeting of the Huron -Perth Lung Associa- tion and in today's complex world "doing your own thing is a totally inadequate response." The group reviewed its year at a dinner meeting at St. John's United Church in Stratford May 3. "Freedom is only possible," the broadcaster continued,. "when adults carry the unspect- acular responsibilities of citizen- ship...weighing issues, voting, participating in enterprises that build rather than destroy. Volunteer groups can create a more human society, and if they fail, our world may be shaped by "other forces less humane," Mr. Burghardt warned. "If there is anything which should make , a, person despise him or herself," he said, "it would be to live a little, mean existence in a time like this. We cannot excuse the person, the service club or organization, or community who holes into its comparatively comfortable envir- onment of day-to-day living and refuses to have concern for building a better , world." Are we really interested in helping those in need, he asked. "Does the bulk of our society, in truth, want those in need to go away and not bother gnybody?" The handicapped, old people, young people, poor people, are kept out of sight, on nominal assistance programs which keep them economically just 'where they are, Mr. Burghardt said. "...Many citizens are not concerned about anyone outside the mainstream of our society... and everybody outside the main- stream knows it. So do the few dedicated people who work with them." Mr. Burghardt, an active United Church layman challenged the audiences "Perhaps we ought to stop congratulating ourselves on our well-being, on our modern way of life, on our gross national product, and start reflecting on our gross attitudes toward the ds -inherited, the feeble, the troubled and the torn." Betty Konarski of R. R. 1, Blyth, a student at Central Huron Secondary School in Clinton, was presented with the non-smoking campaigner of the year award. Longtime association member Rev. Garbutt Smith of Stratford who is leaving the association this° year was presented with a long service pin. Rani Lala, the Lung Associa- tion's breathing class therapist, led Stephen Quinlan, Michael Gould, Robin Smith, Mark Kitch- ing, Robbie Campbell and Chris Duskocy in a breathing exercise demonstration.
