AM 920 CKNX, in con - Junction with the Christmas Bu- reaus of Huron County (Family and Children's Services) and the Listow- el, Hanover, Goderich and Wing - ham Salvation Armies, invites you to make Christmas Magic for those in need. On Thursday, December 7, AM 920 CKNX will host a 12 -hour fundraising broadcast from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m The campaign has a two- fold purpose; it first draws aware- ness to those served by the charities and then raises funds for them. Throughout the broadcast, CKNX will tell you how these charities started, how they service the less fortunate and where the funds raised will go. Organizers as well as vol- 'untcers will be interviewed and an- swer any questions you may have. There will be phone centres set up on December 7, throughout mid- western Ontario. The idea behind the centers is to call the local num- ber which serves your area. From time to time these centers will re- port the total funds raised and where some of the pledges are from.'• Through the combined effort of AM 920 CKNX, these charities and our donations, Christmas Magic can be spread to the needy and the true meaning of Christmas can be rediscovc. Seaforth hospital gets $529,800 grant SEAFORTH - Seaforth Commu- hity Hospital will receive a $529,800 boost to its annual oper- ating funds for expanded emergency and outpatient services, Jack Rid- dell, MPP for Huron, announced on behalf of Health Minister Elinor Caplan. The funding will follow this month's expected completion of a • 52.5 million capital project that created a new 12,000 square foot (3,6000 square metres ) wing at the hospital. The project received two- thirds, or $}.7 million, of its fund- ing from the provincial government and the remainder was raised by the community. The expansion increases the avail- able space in the hospital by one- third. Service to the community will be enhanced in many depart- ments through these new additions and renovations to existing areas. Emergency, laboratory, physio- therapy, central supply and process- ing, operating rooms, radiology, health records and administration de- partments will be located in the new wing. "This is the most significant de- velopment at our community hos- pital since it was built 25 years ago,” Riddell said. "It's enjoyed tre- mendous support over the years from the community, and I'm sure the modernization that's just been completed will enable the hospital to better serve Seaforth residents. Lucan Seniors LUCAN - Lucan Seniors and Busy Buddies met in the Scout Hall. Birthday greetings were extend- ed to Jean Warner. Jim Davis reported on plans for the Tri -County Games next sum- mer. Entertainment was a sing -song of Christmas carols with Muriel Cobleigh at the piano. Hazel Cun- ningham gave a reading. We ad- journed for all games. We are reminded that at our meeting on December 7 the Nur- sery School will entertain us at 1:30 p.m. CFFO endorses crop insurance GUELPH - The Executive Board of the Christian Farmers Federa- tion of Ontario has endorsed the 1990 crop insurance changes planned by the Crop Insurance Commission of Ontario. In a letter to the Commission, the CFFO says it is "increasingly satisfied with the levels of support from the program. CFFO endorses creating options above 80 percent where variability warrants and where the costs in- volved are paid for separately from the existing program. "Higher levels of protection should be fully paid by those sign- ing up for such protection, not the participants in the basic program," the letter says. CFFO expresses an interest. in spot loss or specific peril options when paid for by optional premi- ums. It reaffirms its strong opposi- tion to separate farm coverage. The letter also expresses some concerns about the program. The higher levels of coverage may be influencing production decisions. The Federation is having second thoughts about the wisdom of ex- pecting a crop insurance program to do away with all the need for ad hoc programs at times of major disas- ters.
