one complaint from residents m the area of
malicious acts."
After hearing comments from those not in
favor of the rezoning, Mr. Engelstead said,
"The patients are not walking around with
horns and tails. If the patients were here
they would be upset."
Bill Counter also spoke in defence of the
clinic. "It's been across from my house and
it's never disturbed me."
One concerned resident on Joseph Street
asked Mayor Archibald that, with the
upcoming election and the gravity of
situation, the decision to rezone or not be left
to the new council.
Mayor Archibald said, "I'm not going to
have people say that the mayor was too
yellow to face a thorny issue."
Towards the end of the meeting, the same
man who suggested putting the issue off
until the next council said he would be in
favor of the change if there would be a clinic
and only a clinic.
"We're not a bunch of bigots," he said.
Also at the end of the meeting, John Lavis,
the owner of the property for the proposed
clinic, said, "By the number of people here,
you'd think 1 was trvinu to set un a house of
ill-repute...lf I thought this would disrupt
the community, I wouldn't start A. I thought
it would be good for the town."
Mr. Lavis also added that he would be
willing to sign any type of agreement with
council that would turn the property back
into residential if the clinic decided to move.
Mr. Caldwell will be drawing up the bylaw
that will state the land is to be used for a
clinic only. The bylaw will be circulated to
the concerned citizens who will have an
opportunity to voice their opinions at
council's next meeting.
Length of stay depends on patient...

courage them," Mrs. Moriarty explained.
Services at the clinic encourage socializa-
tion, greater independence and self-
sufficiency, improvement in communica-
tion, initiative and assertiveness, the
development of personal interests and spare
time activities, the examination of and
resolution of personal problems.
Staff includes a fulltime nursing assistant
and two part-time employees, including a
registered nurse who has a Bachelor of
Household Management.
Employees surpervise and offer in-
struction in daily, programs that include
counselling and therapy, crafts, exercise
programs, community recreational and
social activities.
One course currently running at the clinic
studies basic family living skills. The course
looks at nutrition and menu planning, child
psychology and development, needlework,
hair care, wardrobe "planning and beauty
hints, financial planning, effr^+;••^
and consumer rights.
Mrs. Moriarty said that the aim of the
Community Psychiatric Services is to offer
encouragement,ssistance and confiden-
tiality for people *ho are having difficulties
coping with the rigors of everyday life,for
people who are lonely or isolated;
She explained that without the service,
many people would suffer, "They need on-
going support groups. Hospitals ran only
help while a person is in hosptial."
Tack -or -treaters work for UNICEF
"Trick -or -treat" will be the call of
children tomorrow night as they make their
annual Halloween rounds.
They'll be dressed as ghosts and goblins,
favorite cartoon characters and animals.
They'll be carrying bags to collect candy
and many will be carrying the familiar'
UNICEF boxes.
For more than 30 years now, children in
Ontario have made door-to-door canvasses
for UNICEF the United Nations Children's
Fund on Halloween night. Donations made
to those orange and black boxes have helped
millions of children around the world.
UNICEF donations have been used to drill
new wells and provide clean water in Third.
World communities. Money has been used in
the fight againstcommunicable diseases
through UNICEF's immunization program.
Fdpration. health rare; improved nutri-
tion and protection from cruelty and neglect
are among UNICEF's other aims.
This year the UNICEF Halloween dona-
tions will be helping thousands of Brazilian
children who rely on the streets for their
survival.
Twenty million children between the ages
of seven and 17 live on the streets of Brazil's
two major cities. These street children earn
money by selling gums," peanuts, candy and
themselves.
These children take to the streets in order
to survive •because their families cannot
support `them. Their financial contribution
often faakes a differlence between their
family unit staying together or breaking up.
UNICEF now works in 200 communities in
Brazil, helping 50,000 street children.
UNICEF projects provide - them with
nutritious lunches, health services 'and
schooling.
For every child UNICEF reaches in
Brazil, there are still 1,000 more children to
help. This is UNICEF's challenge. By 1986
UNICEF will have set up 200 additional pro-,
grams in Brazil.
