Fundraising breathes new life for Lung Association BY MIKE FERGUSON The importance of fundraising was the main topic of discussion at the Huron -Perth Lung Association's Annual Meeting held in Goderich last week. Guest speaker Sheila Richards of the Blyth Festival outlined the theatre's role in the community and its fundraising methods. "Fundraisers are a special breed of peo- ple," she said, adding any organization needs the type of person who will be "dedicated to the cause." "You should always greet people with a smile," says Betty Hunter, Executive Director of the local Association. Outgoing President David"Wall of Strat- ford had words of praise tor "the volunteers whose dedication and co-operation are much appreciated." He revealed the Christmas Seal Campaign raised $67,848.33, up from the 1984 total. In addition, the response to a first-time Spring Campaign launched in May 1985 "was tremendously • supportive" and resulted in a sum of $12,483.50 for use in the local area. The Huron -Perth Lung Association pro- vides many services in the community, says incoming President Salim Remtulla of Goderich. As a result of Christmas Seal donations alone, programs were provided in patient services, professional education, community health and smoking.

"The program began in 1985 with funding from Environment Canada, and pollution Probe expressed the wish to continue it to take advantage of the momentum created," Bradley said. "We have suggested that Million ion Prole carry out a feasibility study in a realatively small community to proper- ly' evaluate the effectiveness of the program." Pollution Probe has accepted the sugges- tion and will continue the study. Ministry staff will continue to assist Pollution Probe in designing the program and in other technical aspects. The Ontario Petroleum Association will also be involved -in dealing with service sta- tions and generating awareness. Huron councilors will see the ghost of a famous Londoner at Council Day When The University of Western Ontario plays host on Wednesday, June 4 to 188 coun- ty, city and town councils, the ghost of a famous Londoner will appear to rouse the assembled with tales of his century -old exploits. Councillors from the cities of London, St. Thomas, Chatham, Sarnia, Stratford, the town of St. Mary's, and Bruce, Dufferin, Elgin, Grey, Huron, Kent, Lambton, Mid- dlesex, Oxford, Perth, and Wellington coun- ties will see the spectre of William M. Saunders, the° founding father of Canada's system of agricultural research centres, at Western's "Councils Day 1986." Exactly 100 years ago, Saunders persuad- ed Parliament to set up Canada's first five experimental farms. On June 2, 1886, the House of Commons authorized the establish- ment of five experimental farms throughout the sparsely populated country. The legisla- tion brought research on a serious scale to a primitive agriculture, industry. Saunders, a London manufacturing chemist and faculty member in the early days of the "Western University of London, Ontario" medical school, accepted the government's invitation to become the first director of the Central Experimental Farm in Ottawa, which filled a .double role as a research centre and co-ordinating office for the system. Saunders' son Charles developed one of the world's most famous wheats, Marquis, at the Central Experimen- tal Farm and was knighted for his achieve- ment. Marquis was a key part of the economic development of the prairie provinces.
