The Society, formerly the Ontario Society for Crippled Children, employs a staff of 36 district nurses, qualified in rehabilitation and public health, who visit children in their homes and arrange treatment and other services needed. More than 6,500 children up to age 19 are served; referral of older per- sons is made to an ap- propriate adult agency. The Society collaborates with 19 treatment and ,habilitation centres across Ontario which offer a wide range of therapy, education and supportive services. At the request of local medical societies, The Easter Seal Society sponsors annual diagnostic and con- sultant clinics in Northern Ontario. Each year over 1,000 youngsters are examin- ed. The findings are reported to family physicians and ar- rangements made through the Society nurse to ensure the provision of prescribed treatment and equipment. Travelling teaching clinics are held at the request of local professional groups. These clinics cover the range of disabilities the Society serves and provide continuing education for medical and rehabilitation personnel as well as parents. Five Society -owned and operated summer camps provide holidays for more than 1,000 children each year. The Easter Seal Society, through the Conn Smythe Research Foundation for Crippled Children, sponsors medicall research into crippl- ing disorders, preventative measures, and new treat- ment techniques. The Socie- ty also provides substantial financial support for the On- tario Crippled Children's Centre and the Blissym- bolbcs Communication In- stitute. The Society is funded from three major sources: the an- nual Easter Seal Campaign, fund raising activities such as Snowarama, the Timmy Tyke Hockey Tournament, Al Balding's Golf Week for Timmy, and bequests. The Society was created in 1922 by 10 service clubs, which adopted physically disabled children as their field of community service. Today, 236 service clubs - Rotary, Kiwanis, Lions, Kinsmen and others - are af- filiated with The Easter Seal Society. Li r1.Iry ' ant is botste MITCHELL- Town Council has voted to raise its grant to the library in 1983 by $1,000 to $7,000. Although new councillor Ron Ashbourne questioned the increase, stating that many members of council had been elected on a restraint platform of five or six percent, Reeve Jim Spence stood up for the library. "The library has been really strapped for funds," he said, "and 1 don't mind giving an extra $1,000 from the town. It is pretty efficient considering what the hoard has to work with." Deputy clerk Jim Demerling told Ashbourne the library has no increases over the number of years from the previous $6,000, that the allowance has not gone up with inflation. The library's operating budget for 1983 is $21,700, with salaries taking up the biggest chunk at $13,000. That leaves only $4500 for books, papers • and magazines, fuel, utilities, operating expenses, repairs, audit and equipment. The Town of Mitchell is the biggest contributor to the library in Mitchell. In 1982, total budget used was $18,587.32, including provincial grants available through participating townships of Ellice, ice, Fullarton. Ilihbert and Logan which pay their share on a per capita basis.
