Glimpses
No wonder all the birds are
flocking in the bushes. Who
wouldn't want to get away
from this kind of weather!
We are now beginning our
regular Monday evening
film shows. Assistance in
picking up and delivering
films from Goderich Library
would be very much ap-
preciated.
Mr. Otwell Todd and Mr.
Gordon Bloch are still
patients in London Hospitals.
Residents who were out
visiting during the week
were Mrs. Eva Thiel, Mrs.
Margaret Pfaff, Mrs. Mabel
Jaques, Mrs. Ruby Hoggarth
and Mrs. Inez McEwen.
We are still interested in
receiving used nylons and
panty hose, greeting cards of
all kinds and with Christmas
not too far in the future, odds
and ends of wool, ribbon and
anything you think might be
of use for crafts for the
hobby shop.
Bingo was played on
Friday evening followed by
refreshemts. Mrs. Grace
Martin presided at the organ
during the service.
Some of the members of
the Swiss Club from Mitchell
that were here a week ago,
came again Sunday evening
and showed slides of Swit-
zerland which were enjoyed
by both residents and
visitors.

leaves and fruits of the
harvest for the fall thank -
offering meeting of the
United Church Women.
There was if good
representation of members
from Bayfield, Goshen,
Kippen and Brucefield.
The meeting theme tied in
with the International Year
of Disabled Persons, and the
worship service was written
by Rev. Walter Gibbons, who
is blind. It was based on the
scripture verses from John
9, where Jesus tells his
disciples "His blindness has
nothing to do with his sins or
his parents'Ains. He is blind
so that God's power might be
seen at work in him." It was
presented by Dianne Kirton,
Debra Rathwell and Bar-
bara Consitt.
Helen Taylor, who is in
St. Joseph's Hospital, was
convener of the programme
committee, and was sent get -
well wishes signed by all
women present.
Shirley Taylor added
messages in song -- "Put
Your Hand in the Hand of the
Man Who Stilled the Water"
and "One Day at a Time",
whlle playing the guitar.
Wendy Hines, public
education co-ordinator for
the South Huron Association
for the Mentally Retarded,
spoke and showed slides of
volunteers and mentally
handicapped nursery school
students, workers and
trainees in the offices,
workshops and bake shop at
ARC Industries. There were
also pictures of the group
homes and apartments in
Exeter where a number of
them resided.
Three of the most im-
portant; accomplishments of
this specially designated
year, Wendy said, are
changing attitudes toward
the disabled, changes in laws

and in this area the ac-
cessibility study done by
students during this past
summer.
There are 523 people
registered as mentally
handicapped in Huron
County. Over 250 causes of
retardation, including birth
defects and accidents, have
been listed, so a programme
of prevention is of utmost
importance. This includes
genetic counselling, family
planning, prenatal care,
immunization, especially
for measles and rubella
(German measles), good
parenting and family life,
and accident prevention.
Group discussions about
ways of making life easier
and better for the' han-
dicapped were held. A social
hour followed in the Sunday
school room.
Helen Taylor is recovering
satisfactorily following
surgery early last week at
St. Joseph's Hospital, and
hopefully will soon be able to
come home.
The Regional Rally for
U.C.W. is in Walton this

interesting and inspiring
programme for this rally.
Problems with advantage
Advantages can often
cause problems and It is
usually difficult to tell when
the advantage ends and the
problem begins.
The advantage of being a
newspaper reporter is the
number and variety of the
vantage of exposure starts to
become a problem.
Without a solid grounding
in some sort of philosophy or
a belief to cling too, it is
possible to be converted.

vital interest to those in-
volved.
In either case it is
necessary to be sympathetic
and receptive. Against this
you must balance your need
to get the facts --details of
what actually goes on -and
you must get (as close u you
can) the truth. A person's
opinions are interesting and
important as opinions, but a
reasoned argument and the
basis -in -fact should support
the concepts.
There has been a tendency
for more newspapers to run
lifestyle sections. These
reflect the changing at-
titudes and even splinters
within society.
A reporter, faced with
converts to a new religion or
lifestyle, in covering the
story, is exposed to all the
arguments and the honest
convictions (however
deluded) of the people he is
interviewing.

your own values get a going

So there you sit, note book
in hand trying desperately to
take notes -your questions
get deeper and more per-

benefit than for the story -so
that the end of this bout of
psychic combat you can still
go back to the office and
write a story.
Back in the office you rant
and rave to the editor, your
co workers, the typewriter,
about what is wrong with
your life, with society.
And it cools down when
you look at your notes and
discover what a crackpot
you just talked too and how
you'll never condense 14
pages of notes into an in-
telligent, logical story.
And then you type the
story and it makes sense and
you can understand the
what, but maybe not the why
and you sit there wondering

why the story isn't as moving
as the experience was.
Its easy to avoid this by
cloaking yourself in a layer
of cynicism wherby you scoff
at any new ideas, but this too
is a problem.
A reporter must com-
p r o m i s e the
neophile-neophobebalance -
the fear of new ideas against
the hunger for the net
sensation, the search for the
truth...
While it is usually the
struggling reporter trying to
keep up to a newspapers'
demands for the new and
different, a reporter has his
own curiosity, and this
is a good job from which to
conduct such a search for the
solution to mankind's
problems.
For the most part you
must stay open and recep-
tive to new ideas. It may be a
little hard on the system to
rebel against your entire
make-up every time you do a
story. but learning new
things helps a person to
grow, and it is the reason for
our entire business.
We not only report the
news (Just the facts,
madam !) but you get
commentary from us and
from the people who are
making the news.
It's the reason for having
columns like this, and if I
haven't convinced you. I
think I just convinced
myself.
Now if I could only figure
out what it was I am con-
vinced of...

The October meeting of
the Emmanuel United
Church U.C.W. was held
Thursday evening, October
first in the church
auditorium.
Ina Neeb introduced Mr.
Jack Gaiser of Dashwood
who presented slides on two
young men who suffer from
cerebral palsy. One is John
Kellerman of Dashwood and
the other Norman Kuntz.
John was born and raised in
Dashwood. At the age of 5 he
went away to school -
Woodeden, near London.
John now has his own apart-
ment in Toronto and gets
around with the help of an
electric car.
After seeing how people
like these two young men
cope with life, it really
should shame the rest of us
who are not supposed to be
handicapped or disabled.
Everyone is handicapped in
one way or another. We
should look on the han-
dicapped as persons first
and then handicapped. It is
people's attitudes that make
the handicapped feel uncom-
fortable not their handicap
Ina Neeb expressed the
ladies' thanks to Mr.
Gaiser. Ina then read a
paper on 'The Year of the
Handicapped' which was
very interesting. One
thought left with us • "Why
should it be just this year?'
It should be every year. The
handicapped are people.
