(News -Record photo) Former Seaforth reeve and Clinton native dies in London William Nelson Ball One of the community's well-known natives, William Nelson Ball died in University Hospital, London on Wed- nesday, January 25 following a lengthy illness. He was in his 68th year. Mr. Ball was born and raised in Clinton by Mr. and Mrs. Nelson Ball. He was a partner in the business, Ball Bros., Clinton which later became Ball -Macaulay in Clinton and Seaforth. Mr. Ball was also active in municipal politics and served on the Seaforth Town Council as councillor from 1956 to 1958 and as reeve from 1959 to 1963. He attended Clinton PulaRe and the Clinton Di$frict Collegiate Institute and served in the Medical Corps of the Royal Canadian Army in Canada and overseas from 1942 to 1946. He was also a member of the Northside United Church, the Lions Club, the Royal Canadian Legion and the Masons. Mr. Ball is survived by his - wife, the former Mary Frances Mossop and his children, Nelson of Toronto, Joseph of Calgary, Mrs. Mary (Jack) Philpott, Scarborough and Elizabeth of London. He is also survived by two brothers, Harry of Clinton and Douglas of Bayfield and three sisters, Ruth McKinnon of Weston, Clara Macaulay of Clinton and Margaret Carhart of Florida. A private funeral service was held on Saturday, January 28 at the Ball Funeral Home in Clinton with interment following at the Bayfield Cemetery. Rev. M.E. Reuber conducted the service. La Leche League meets The La Leche League in Huron County met last month at the home of local leader, Janis Bisback with 15 mothers and children present. The weather con- ditions resulted in the can- cellation of December's meeting and the regular second Wednesday of the month date was postponed one week in January again, due to the winter weather. The discussion topic of this meeting was nutrition and weaning. Good nutrition is important for the whole family but is essential for a pregnant or breastfeeding mother. Contaminants and toxins regarding breast- feeding were discussed. It was pointed out that the nursing baby is not the sole recipient of contaminants. The whole enviornment has been affected, and it is a matter of weighing the risks vs. the benefits. Medical authorities con- cerned with providing infants with the best nutrition available are convinced that the hazards of commercially prepared products are greater - and breastfeeding may be one way to delay the introduction of these con- taminants into our daily diet. There are effective measu-res a woman can take for her own protection and"' ultimately for her , own family. One should limit the amount of animal fat eaten and avoid the consumption of fresh water fish, for it has been shown that fish are sensitive to contamination. During a period of breast feeding or pregnancy it would appear wise to avoid a rapid weight loss, as such fat- soluable toxins would be released more rapidly when dieting. The next meeting of La Leche League will be held in Seraforth at 2 p.m., February 8 in the afternoon, at the home of Mary Beuerman, 84 Market Street. The discussion topic will be "The Advan- tages of Breastfeeding". This is the first meeting of four part series to be held in the Seaforth area. If you are pregnant and would like more information on the womanly art of breastfeeding or already enjoy being a nursing couple - you're invited. If you havn't started a family yet, have older children, or are a grandmother you are welcome to attend our in- formal meetings. La Leche (pronounced Lay *chay) League is a 20 -year-old volunteer organization devoted to giving information and support to women who want to breastfeed their babies.
