HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Wingham Advance-Times, 1966-05-26, Page 13An interesting visitor in Blyth on Monday, May 30, will be E. J. O'Brien, executive director, Ontario Tuberculosis Association, who will be guest speaker at the annual meeting of the Huron County TB Associ- ation. His subject will be "A Canadian's Viewpoint on the Tuberculosis Problem and Its Solution in an Emerging Coun- try". Mr. O'Brien returned recent- ly from South East Asia where he visited India, Ceylon, Ma- laysia and Thailand as a mem- ber of the International Semi- nar to advise on development of an anti-tuberculosis program, He has been director of the On- tario Association since its incep- tion in 1945 and with which Huron County Association is af- filiated. This is the third occasion on which Mr. O'Brien's services have been loaned to the Inter- national Association and he is conversant with the tuberculo- sis problem on a global scale. The relative control of the dis- ease which Ontario enjoys to- day could be short lived in this jet age unless we not only keep up our defences here, but also recognize that we must assist the struggling voluntary associ- ations in developing countries. Mr. O'Brien will discuss the appalling problem with which they are confronted.

(Intended for last week) WHITECHURCH—Mrs, Rus- sel McGuire of Turnberry was hostess to the Women's Institute last Wednesday evening. Presi- dent Mrs. Wm. Evans welcom- ed visitors and members and read an opening poem. Mrs. V. Emerson, secretary, read her reports. An invitation to attend the Wingham Insti- tute's May 19 meeting was ac- cepted. Mrs. Tom Metcalfe gave the motto, "Happy Mothering". She said a happy mother has a sense of humor, doesn't try to give too many luxuries, teaches children to be happy with sim- ple treasures, lets them help, shares jokes, doesn't grumble and above all, gives plenty of mother love. Mrs. Ezra Scholtz played the autoharp as accompaniment for a sing-song. Mrs. Ben McClen- aghan gave the topic, ''Just for Mothers", which she introduc- ed with the poem, "Mother's Apron". The job of being a mother is really that of a super- woman with the many tasks that must be performed. A clean home with plenty of love is the 1. foundation for a happy family with a feeling of security. As social chairman a mother in- fluences the interests of her family in television viewing and listening, sports, church activi- ties, reading habits -- so it is up to the mother to choose the qualities she wishes to radiate. Mrs. Evans reported on the conference in Guelph when a degree was conferred on Miss Ethel Chapman and $2, 500 was presented to assist newly-form- ed branches in the N, W, Terri- tories. Mrs. Emerson presented Mrs. Russel Gaunt and Mrs. Johnston Conn with A.C.W.W. pins for perfect attendance. The W.I. will take a bus trip to Toronto in June.
