CNIB performs double
function for society
"CNIB serves a double func-
tion," says Mrs. F. E. Madill,
Wingham campaign chairman.
"On the one hand it is a
rehabilitation agency and, on the
other, a prevention service.
Because 50 per cent of blindness
can be prevented, CNIB's pre-
vention work is of vital im-
portance to this community."
Through The E. A. Baker
Foundation for Prevention of
Blindness, CNIB sponsors clini-
cal fellowships for ophthal-
mological training and for basic
research into the causes of
various eye conditions.
CNIB also supplies statistics on
the causes of blindness that no
other organization can offer.
These statistics are broken down
into age groups, type of blindness
and degrees of vision to assist in
research.
As the community and neigh-
bourhood level CNIB organizes
special clinics for pre-school
children to detect conditions
which, if left untreated, can lead
to blindness. CNIB also sponsors
screenings for glaucoma —
another frequent cause of blind-
ness if it is left untreated. In
addition. CNIB operates three
mobile eye care vans which
travel in some remote areas. One
mobile van examined 1.500
Wingham
couple honored
at open house
Mr. and Mrs. Ray Spencer of

Albert Rantoul, Wingham, held
Open House at the home of Mr.
and Mrs. Russell Zurbrigg on
Saturday evening, September 28.
The event was held in recognition
of Mr. and Mrs. Zurbrigg's 25th
wedding anniversary.
Besides Wingham friends,
guests were present from Clin-
ton, Elliot Lake, Estaire, St.
Thomas, Toronto, Kitchener,
Owen Sound, Durham, Hanover,
Listowel, Teeswater and Luck -
now,
people recently arid found 64 per
cent had eye problems. About
half were children and in almost
all cases early diagnosis meant
avoidance of serious sight
problems in the future.
Through broad public educa-
tion programmes CNIB alerts the
general 'public and industrial
workers on the care and pro-
tection of the eyes.
When your volunteer canvasser
calls on you, remember CNIB's
double purpose and dig deep into
both pockets. Help provide reha-
bilitation and prevention service
for our community."

The hsic diet of Mauritania is

anything which the international
relief effort can offer.' -
Canadian children are more
fortunate, and every year, over
one million of our country's
young don their masks and
costumes on Hallowe'en and go
knocking on doors collecting
money for their less fortunate
counterparts in countries such as
Mauritania and Ethiopia. In 1973,
$856,000 was collected. This year,
with your help, we hope to exceed
the million dollar mark for the
first time.
It is now almost 18 months
Since the world first became
aware of thedrought in West
Africa and a year since the
victims of famine first came to
public notice in Ethiopia. In that
• time an estimated 400,000 people
have died, mill%ns more have
been reduced to destittion:,
nation El:m* s 'ha .,been
crippled and whole peoples•have
seen their traditional ways of life
all but destroyed.
In all, about 50 million .people
live in this devastated swathe of
Africa. About one third of them
are directly affected by the
drought and, .of these, perhaps 10
million are facing the possibility
of starvation.
A large international• effort, co-
ordinating with the governments
of the affected countries, is
channelling aid, despite admini-
strative difficulties and enor-
mous transport problems.
The United Nations Children's
Fund, UNICEF, was one of the
first to help ... transporting and
distributing 15,000 tons of protein -
rich food to combat the mal-
nutrition among young children
and weaning mothers, along with
intravenous fluids and medical
supplies for the worst -affected.
Now its major efforts are being
made in the longer-term rehabili-
tation measures, helping to dig
and bore wells, to restore local
water supplies, and supporting
health services — particularly
with the transport they need to
reach victims in remote area. •
Both in West Africa and
Ethiopia, the relief efforts are
concentrating on the refugee
camps which have sprung up
around centres of population
which can be reached by road.
In these camps the problems
can be seen in all their pathetic
simplicity; shortages of vital
necessities such as food and
water, absence of basic services
such as health care and
elementary hygiene.
Here are examples of two of
these camps on opposite sides of
the continent ; the first in the tiny
hamlet of Bistima in Ethiopia's
Wollo province, the second in the
sprawling tent -city of Tevrak-
zena, outside the Mauritanian
capital of Nouakchott.
Beginning in Bistima, which
became a way -station for
refugees, the water supply
problem is being tackled by
Ethiopia's Water Resources
Commission with supplies and
help from UNICEF. In three
months Bistima will have enough
dean water for everyone, and 20
truck -loads fo UNICEF equip-
ment are being installed in other
townships and two giant drilling
rigs are being brought in to drill
deep wells — 48 in the„next two
years.
Four thousand miles west, in
Mauritania's capital, Nouak-
chott, Tevrakenna camp is a
static symbol of loss for its
inhabitants — nomads who can
no longer move. When the
drought trebled the population of
Nouakchott from 4.5,000 to 130,000,
most of the increase was in this
camp. Now ragged tests stretch
as far as the eye can , see.
The children of Tevrakzena
have little time for play. Because
of the drought, they are .already
part of the struggle for life --
