The Canadian Bar Association -Ontario is a 14,000 -member organization .formed to provide support for theprofession in On- tario.

Pet turtles may be ill The Huron County Health Unit is advising owners of pet turtles which have been pur- chased since September 1984, that a high percentage of these and similar animals may be infected with salmonella and capable of causing illness in those who han- dle them or the tank water in which they are kept. Recent cases of illness in children have been traced to these turtles. It is recommended that where turtles are kept as pets, children should not handle them or be involved in cleaning the tanks. Adults who do handle them should use rub- ber gloves and wash thoroughly afterwards, and avoid contaminating the environment. The tanks should not be kept in food areas and should be inaccessible to other pets. Otherwise, it would be preferable to dispose of the turtles. Distributors and pet stores are aware of the problem and the public should avoid the purchase of these turtles. In testing for the presence of salmonella in turtles, there have also been positive fin- dings in tanks of newts and frogs. • Although far fewer of these are sold and kept as pets, similar precaui _..i should be exercised. !.. — ". s- REGULAR OR DEODORANT 2.59 1 /� PRI PHOTOFINISHING OFFER NOW IN EFFECT OFFER EXPIRES6 MARCH 30th85 VALUA.ILE Z HRS OUP—Orsi Y ..
