Raise over $2,000
dons helphospitalfund
The Londesboro Lions
have followed one successful
fund raising event for the
•Clinton Public Hospital with
another.
A dance held on November
7th, along with proceeds
from the quilt draw donated
to the Lions by the Aimwell
Unit, raised over $850.
•
On Sunday the Lions
continued their fund raising
drive with their second
annual pancake brunch.
Everyone in the community
appeared to be there, and as
a result an additional $250 to
$300 will push the Lion
pledge over the $2,000 mark.
Due to the huge success of
the pancake brunches, the
Lions will be planning more
in the new year.
Next Saturday the Lions
will be holding their annual
mystery tour and poker
rally. They are hoping for a
good turnout and the route
promises to be longer and
more challenging than ever.

Study electricitywith 4,411
Your car has just struck a
hydro pole – a live tran-
smission wire is lying on the
roof and your car is on fire.
Do you get out? Stay put?
Pray?
If you had ever been in a 4-
H electric conservation club,
you would know enough to
jump from the car and hop
away – and you would also
know a lot of other things
about electricity.
Ontario Hydro has
sponsored 4-H electric
conservation clubs for 20
years to teach rural youths
about the role .of electricity
on the farm, says Grant
Webber, Ontario Hydro
energy conservation
supervisor in charge of
agricu lture.
"We look upon the
program as basic," he says.
"These people are interested
in the total energy picture
right from the role of the
)generator through to turning
on the switch in the milk
house."
The club's program
consists of five meetings and
an achievement day. Topics
include the sources of
electricity, how to read a
meter and assess energy
use, electrical cables, farm
building insulation, and
safety around electricity.
Assignments include a
total wattage inventory of
the electrical equipment on
each participant's farm,
checking building insulation,
and sketching the farm and
its electricity uses.
Since 1973, the emphasis of
the club has been to increase
awareness of energy con-
servaton, says Webber. time
is devoted to discussing ways
of improving energy ef-
ficiency on the farm.
All lessons in the course
are taught by Ontario Hydro
agricultural consultants in
conjunction with local
agricultural offices.
