HEN TO SPEND IS MAJOR POINT Maitland Presbyterial ,Holdi • Animal at 'St. Andrew's g., "We don't believe in handing anybody anything on a platter; all we can do is make it possible for handicapped people to help them- selves.

As an example, Mrs. McMurray mentioned the case of a 30 year- old ex swimming champion, now paralyzed from the hips down. The March of Dimes has provided nec- essary equipment and transporta- tion, and, is helping this young man with his education.
