Home My WebLink AboutThe Wingham Advance-Times, 1964-07-09, Page 2Page 2 - Wingharn Advance*Times, Thursday, July t), 1964 Premiums Higher, Services Extended Beginning July 1st, residents of Ontario who are covered by Ontario hospital Insurance will he entitled to five additional out-patient benefits. "These benefits were predicted by lion. James N. Allan, provincial treasurer, when he announced the increase in hospital insur- ance premiums in his budget speech on February 13th this year. The new premiums, which become payable with the regular advance payment to cover the benefit month of ik- tober, are x3.'33 mouth4 for a single person and $6,50 monthly for a family. " This is the second exten- sion of out-patient benctits since the plan began on Jan- uary 1st, 1:+39, stated hr, J. R. Neilson, chairman of the On- tario Hospital Services Com- mission, in making the an- nounec'tnent, " The benefits are designed," he went on, "to cover a number of services which are provided mainly by hospitals and which, it not in- sured, could create consider- able expense for the person who must make repeated visits to the hospital out-patient de- partment as parr of a planned course of treatment." Under the new out-patient benefits the Ontario Hospital Services Commission will now cover hospitalvisits to conclude treatment of a fracture which was originally treated on an in- patient basis. Previously, the plan covered follow-up treat- ment of fractures only if the pa- tient was originally treated on an out-patient basis within 24 hours of an accident and not ad- mitted to hospital over -night. Another new benefit is co- verage for radiotherapy hospi- tal services for the treatment of cancer on an out-patient ba- sis in clinics of the Ontario Cancer Treatment and Research Foundation and hospitals ap- proved by the Commission for these services. This benefit covers only treatment, not dia- gnostic X-ray or laboratory ser- vices provided before, during or after out-patient treatment. Neither does it cover radio- therapy services for non -can- cerous conditions. Physiotherapy and occupa- tional therapy will he covered on an out-patient basis in hos- pitals approved by the Commis - G. A. WILLIAMS, Q.D. Optometrist 9 PATRICK STREET W.

This does not mean that the plan will cover physiotherapy sitnply to relieve minor aches and pains, There must be a medi- cal condition under treatment which, in the attending physic- ian's opinion, requires a num- her of physiotherapy or occupa- tional therapy treatments. For the immediate future, physio- therapy will he a benefit only N4 hen the treatments are receiv- ed inhospitals approved by the Comrnission to provide these services, Consideration, how- ever, is being given to the ap- proval of other physiotherapy facilities at a later date, and if and when approved the Com- mission plans to snake regular physiotherapy benefits avail- able in these facilities. Also, as a new out-patient benefit, the Commission will pay for speech therapy where this is available in approved hospitals and provided by quali- fied speech therapists for a treatment of an organic illness or injury. Originally, the only out-pa- tient service covered by rhe plan was emergency hospital service on the first visit to hos- pital within 24 hours of an ac- cident, Two years ago, with- out any additional premium charge, the Commission began paying for follow-up treatment of fractures which were origin- ally treated under the emer- gency out-patient provision plus benefits for procedures per- formed on an out-patient basis which normally would have re- quired the patient to he admit- ted to hospital, FINNISH MUSIC NOT FINISHED The history of Finland until 50 years ago was one of con- quest and rule by foreigners. In the 12th century, the country was conquered by Sweden and remained under the influence of that country until 1809, when Finland was annexed by Russia. Not until after the Russian Re- volution in 1917 did Finland achieve independence. How- ever, no foreign occupation ever succeeded in eradicating the individuality and spirit of Finnish music and poetry,which has existed since the days of the Vikings. Sometimes monoton- ous, but always deeply moving, the folk songs of the Finns have a character which sets them quite apart from the music of other Scandinavians. a Y NG MAN ANTED OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN ALL ASPECTS OF PRINTING TRADE.

Rev. Gordon J. Freer, children's editor, pointed out that people seem to pass through various stages of art ap- preciation in a life time. They start with an appreciation of the symbolic and change to a desire for the literal and then hack again to the symbolic. "The young child three to five years of age," explained Mr. Freer, "appreciates the more abstract, symbolic orsty- lized form of art. This is the way they express themselves on paper when they draw, From a series of blobs and streaks the young child can interpret the most amazing picture." ,Mr. Freer went on to explain how the child, six to eleven years of age becomes a literalist and realist in his art appreciation. "1 think this is because his whole school program is geared to make him learn to do things properly and correctly," said Mr. Freer, "Thus his art must be correct and this correctness for him comes to mean literal reproduction." The change from symbolic art to a literal kind of art may be seen by comparing the nurs- ery and kindergarten hooks with the primary and junior books. Referring to the art work in the year ane adult basic hook in the New Curriculum Mr, Freer indicated that it had returned to the abstract and stylized. "Some adults do not come back to this appreciation," comment- ed Mr. Freer. "is it because so few of them leave their junior childhood?"

Boyle Dies in Goderich William Augustine Boyle, 79, of Goderich died Saturday at Alexandra Hospital, after a long illness, Ile was a son of the late Hen- ry Boyle and Julia Brophy. For several years he farmed in West Wawanosh Township, then ran a store in Goderich for 30 years. He was treasurer of West Wa- wanosh Township for 13 years and secretary -treasurer of the RCSSI for 25 years. Ile was a member of St, Peter's RC Church, Goderich, and of the Holy Name Society.

He was predeceased by two sisters and three brothers, Canada, its Characters and its Buildings The character of a country is reflected in its architecture. Canada's boisterous pioneer period produced utilitarian homes. But by the late 1800's the character of our people had changed to one of elegance and sophistication, and the homes changed with theist. As always great Canadians built great houses. Such a house is Latnhton Lodge, located at Beverley and Baldwin Streets in Toronto and huilt in 1875 by George Brown, the founder of the Globe news- paper. In its stalwart lines we see an image of the man himself; implacable rival of Sir John A, Macdonald, cattle breeder, as sociatc of Alexander Graham Bell and one of the fathers of Confederation - man of taste, his life mirrored in the great louse with its uncompromising tnansard roof, its east -iron fence and generous windows. I was in this house he died as a result of an assassin's ballet. It is in keeping with George Brown's character that Lamh- ton Lodge now forms part of the School for Retarded Chil- dren. The windows of Lamhton Lodge were something of which he was particularly concerned. Ile wanted nothing small and, in those days, it was a problem to come by big areas of glass. All glass game from England, via Pilkington Bros., now the largest glass firth its the coun- try. Much of the original glass Is still intact at Lamhton Lodge. With the approach of the centenary of confederation, Lamhton Lodge stands as an outward -looking monument to one of that same conk:deraw bon's chief architects.
