.GODERICH'S' HOUSES
SAP'S RUNNIN'
One farmer with around
1,000 trees tapped reports a
make of 30 gallons of maple
syrup up to Saturday last, the
Huron County Agricultural
office reports. However, the
general sap run has been very`
low, with not too much syrup
make as yet.
Farm sales are generally
well attended, with live stock
and feed supplies selling quite
well, while used machinery is
selling much below last year's
prices. There is considerable
interest this spring in applying
nitrogen fertilizer to poor
stands of fall wheat.

The pangs of hunger are relieved for these tiny Korean tots with
wholesome powdered -sweet hot milk provided by Canadians. Through
the efforts of the Unitarian Services Committee of Canada, headed by
Dr. Lotta • Hitschmanova,, 210,000 pounds of the powdered milk was
provided last months enough to give every Primary School child in
Seoul, Korea, one glass a day for a month. Appeals for more funds

t "The individual case which needs
personal attention should be the
primary concern of every club,"
said the speaker. "We must strive

If we were to place ourselves
in their position, we would shud-
der at the thought of having to

For Renovations
Not Indigents
Grant of 514,400 to Alexandra
Marine and General Hospital is
definitely intended to help the in -1
stitution make repairs and renova-
tions, according to a letter re-
ceived by R. C. Hays, chairman of i
Goderich Hospital Board.
Mr. Hays had saidwhen the
grant was announced, that he
thought it might be fothe gov-
ernment's share of, cost of caring
for indigent patients.
Commenting on the grant, Mr.
Hays said it was urgently needed
and .the money would be put to
good use in making repairs. In
the past, he said., -cost. of renova=
tions had 'been paid for out of.
general hospital accounts. ,
Following is the letter received
by Mr. Hays •from C. J. Telfer,
director of the government's Pub-
lic and Private Hospitals Division:
"Acknowledging your letter of
the 14th, may I make it clear that
the special grant referred to by
the Prime Minister in his budget
address to the House has nothing
whatsoever to do with Maintenance
grants. It is a special grant based
on $400.00 per bed on those beds
in the hospital which have not
benefitted by Government grants.
plus $100.00 per bed with respect
to those beds which have bene-
fitted by Governement grant. .
"It is anticipated that a supple-
mentary grant will be available
shortly as was the case Last year -.
with respect to indigent patient
days and of this you will receive
notice in due course."'
