Women only stop smoking support groups CLINTON - Stop smoking groups for women are soon to be- gin across Huron County. They will aim to provide a supportive, friendly environment for women who wish to significantly reduce their smoking habit. The program is funded by Health Canada and administered through partnership with Huron County agencies: Women Today: Women's Re- source Centre; Huron Addiction Assessment and Referral Centre; Women's Shelter and Counselling Services; Phoenix of Huron; and Huron County Health Unit. Ever 40 minutes one Canadian woman dies of smoking related causes, yet young women continue to be attracted to smoking and then become addicted. Today young women between the ages of 20 and 24 constitute the largest group of smokers. The reasons women smoke tend to differ from those of men so Health Canada, in partner- ship with local service providers, is funding specialized "quit "Family Affair" for New Year's Eve Joan Beierling VARNA - The Trends Youth Group ages 10-13, will meet Wednesday, November 29, 7:30- 8:45 at the Brucefield Church.

"We will make it as easy as possible to at- tend," says coordinator/facilitator Ruth Cooper, "by providing trans- portation and child care for those women who need them." In a large county like Huron with no public transportation, this is really impor- tant for some women who would otherwise be unable to attend. But why arc the groups going to be restricted to women only? Cooper responds "research has shown that women in mixed groups are often reluctant to partic- ipate or to share their experiences. As well, peer support is much more important to women in their efforts to quit. Peer support means women supporting other women who have similar life concerns." The first two groups will be held in Goderich and Exeter starting in the new year, with other groups to follow in 1996 in Seaforth, Wing - ham and Clinton. For more infor- mation or to add your name to a waiting list for your area call Ruth Cooper or Heather Kehl at Clinton 482-3416 or, for long distance calls only, 1-800-265-5184.

Panther Profile By Anita Wein in light of some things that have been happening within our com- munity lately I would like to take this opportunity to remind you that there arc many great kids out there. About 98 per cent of the teenagers in society are law-abiding, hard-working citizens. It seems that we only hear about the other two per cent, 95 per cent of the time. Many students at South Huron go out of their way to make a dif- ference. Many of our students do volunteer work within and outside of the school. All of the students involved in any extracurricular activities need to be commended for their dedication. Even though classes start at 8:50 and end at 3:20 you will Lind students here some mornings as early as 7 a.m. and many stay until 7 p.m. practicing sports and mu- sic. Also students with outstanding academics should also be com- mended. Getting good grades is hard work. The extra effort these students put in is evident in the products they produce. So next time you read something had about teenagers, remember that there are many great young people out there. Just give us a chance.
