Get early welcome to St. Patrick's Day When the members of Riverview Women's Institute came into the Masonic Hall at Ailsa Craig for the March meeting, they soon realized that St. Patrick's Day comes in March. . There was a shamrock plant on the president's table, the walls were decorated with shamrocks and Irish pictures and there were green and white streamers on the lunch table. Lorraine Neil, Family and Con- sumer Affairs Convener and her com- mittee were in charge of the pro- gramme. Lorraine welcomed Colleen Biggs who spoke to us about nutrition a good topic as March is nutrition month. After listening to Colleen talk about nutrional concerns and eating pat- terns, no doubt we will now be check- ing Canada's Food Guide to find out if our meals are meeting our dietary needs. We can continue to learn about nutrition at home as Colleen provid- ed us with a number of handouts per- taining to the nutrition topic. While enlarging on the motto "God" gives us the ingredients for happiness but the mixing is up to us," Mary Sutherland pointed out that the ingre- dients for happiness are all around us and we will find them. • The rest of the programme includ- ed a 'scripture reading by Reta a chain -saw or a jet engine can damage hearing."7I personaT stereo set at volume number six for just 30 minutes can result in some perma- nent hearing loss and once the ear is damaged it never recovers. The intensity of sound is the amount of energy sound sends out and it is measured in decibels. The most in- tense sound in nature is a thunderclap measuring 120 decibels. An amplified rock group can also reach 120 decibels. Tests show that stereo head- phones, set at around volume four ton the usual 10 - point scale), produce 95 decibels of sound. Hearing loss begins at 85 decibels. For comparison to this level, a jet airplane 100 feet away pro- duces 140 decibles; a boiler factory, 130 decibles; a police siren, 100 feet away, 100 decibels; heavy traffic, 90 decibels; ora whisper 20 decibels. Ac- cording to Health and Welfare Canada, established permissible dai- Theise--exposu levels are 90 decibels for four hours at y, decibels for two hours, or 110 decibles for 12 an hour or less. Occuptional health regulations state that after ex- posure to 95 decibels for four hours. people must wear ear protection. Intense sound affects hearing by damaging the tiny fragile hair cells - of the inner ear which pick up sound waves to provide the first step in transferring sound to the brain. Once these hair cells becomcr damaged, permanent hearing loss occurs. Hearing loss is usually a gradual process and often accompanies the aging process. It frequently goes un- noticed by the individual until so- meone else points it out. Loud, persis- tent sound can cause hearing loss at ANY AGE. While experts don't agree on the ex- act effects of stereo/headphone sets on hearing, they suspect that prolong- ed listening with the volume set on high will produce hearing damage. Walkabout stereos do have the advan- tage of providing the pleasure of high fidelity sound whatever the setting and with the use of headphones - without disturbing others. They're ob- viously here to stay, but they should be used sensibly • at a maximum volume setting of two - to ensure that permanent hearing loss is prevented. So turn down the volume... even if it's just for the health of it! Hughes, two poems read by Lorraine and a sing -song with Jean Lee at the piano. The fun contest was wpn by Marie Campbell. The members answered the roll call by naming their favourite casserole and, some recipes were provided. In the businesspart of the meeting members were reminded of our dessert euchre on March 30.
