( Photo by Joanne Buchanan) Expanded facility opened Representatives from the Canadian Cancer Society and the London Cancer Clinic officially opened a 20 -bed addition to Thameswood Lodge in London on Friday, November 25. The $700,000 addition brings to 50 the dumber of beds available to cancer patients from outside London who require accom- modations while undergoing treatment at the London Cancer Clinic. Funds for the project were provided by the Canadian Cancer Society from three sources: limited local fundraising; designated bequests or legacies to the Cana- dian Cancer Society which must be used in the southwestern Ontario area; and funds from the Ontario Division of the Canadian Cancer Society which were raised during the Society's annual fundraising campaign in April. Thameswood Lodge is operated by the On- tarioCancer Treatment and Research Foundation's London Cancer Clinic. The most recent addition was the second since the Lodge opened in 1962 with 18 beds. In 1970,12 beds were added to the facility. Two of the new bedrooms were designated for handicapped patients and an elevator has been added to the facility. In addition to -the new bedtuoms, there is an active lounge for games such as ping pong or shuffleboard and a craft room where volunteers instruct guests in macrame, knitting, oil painting and other crafts. There is a quieter lounge for reading or watching television and a small privacy room where guests may visit with family, friends or clergy. Thameswood Lodge serves all of southwestern Ontario, with guests coming from as far north as the Bruce Peninsula, as far west as Sarnia and as far east as the Kit- chener/Waterloo and Cambridge areas. Family members wishing to stay at the Lodge with guests are permitted to do so at a cost of $25 a night or $100 a week including meals, providing a bed is available. Thameswood Lodge also houses the newly renovated offices of the Southwestern District and London -Middlesex Unit offices of the Canadian Cancer Society. The Lodge addition is the second major project to receive Canadian Cancer Society funding recently. The first was the breast cancer screening clinic at 373 Hill Street in London which was established as part of a national program to determine if x-ray ex- amination is more effective in detecting cancer in its early stages than is physical examination alone. Over the next year and a half, the clinic hopes to recruit at least 4,500 women between the ages of 40 and 59. Volunteers for the program are being sought from throughout southwestern On- tario. The Canadian Cancer Society raises funds to support patient services and education programs as well as research into the causes of cancer and its cures. In 1983, $12,246,350 was raised in Ontario. Of this, $1,199.448 was raised in southwestern Ontario. 80 ONTARIO STREET For That Special Outfit for Christmas... or the gift you've been looking for INFANTS' TO SIZE 16 NOW CARRYING GIRLS &BOYS° Girls° Teen Clothing Sizes 5-15 TOWN OF GODERICH PUBLIC MEETING CONCERNING A PROPOSED ZONING BY-LAW AMENDMENT TAKE NOTICE that the Council of the Corporation of the Town of Goderich will hold a public meeting on January 10, 1984 at 7:00 p.m. et the Town Hall to consider a proposed zoning by-law amendment under section 34 of the Planning Act.

The Ontario Farm Tax Reduction Program, designed to assist owners of farm properties by rebating a portion of their property taxes, has been greatly improved for 1984. As in past years, residences, farmland and outbuildings will continue to be assessed together. But the farm tax rebate will increase from 50 to 60%. And while the gross production value for eligibility will remain at $8,000 for the majority of the province, it will be reduced to $5,000 for northern and eastern Ontario (northern Ontario is defined as that area north of the southern boundaries of Haliburton and Muskoka. And eastern Ontario is the area east of the western boundary of Northumberland, Victoria and Peterborough counties). To hear more about these and the many additional pro- gram improvements, contact your local Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food Office. Application 'forms for the 1984 Farm Tax Reduction Program will be mailed during the summer of 1984, and will be accompanied by a brochure outlining the new program in more detail.
