On endeavoring to obtain particulars re proper strength of material, the A.B. Mutch Distributing Co. of Toronto sent a very generous supply of the necessary string, all free of charge. Goderich United Church Women, and their friends affiliated with other district churches, in spare time have been constantly knitting in order to have the finished products delivered as soon as possible, and, ,• some of the ladies at Huronview joined in this pleasant pastime pur- pose. It is intriguing to know just how words get around to distant places as one' of Toronto's De Havilland Aircraft Company's Executives, before his soon retirement.. offered to deliver the first two large cases to destination. ' Since that time six cartons were made ready and Bruce Sully and Bruno Lapaine of Champion Road Machinery Ltd. have very graciously arranged for delivery to the designated address, detailed by Doctor Betty Bridgman, for Kinshasa, Republic of Zaire. Many town -folk .will recall meeting and hearing Dr. Bridgman tell about some of her experiences during the political unrest in Angola, when she visited ,,her friends in Goderich, the Misses Ida and Clare McGowan, last November. It is now reported that Dr. Bridgman will be returning to Africa the end of July, to resume her duties, stationed this time in Zaire. For those who may not be cognizant of the ha'ndknitted string bandages' usefulness, they are wound around the affected parts of the body, over the usual sterilized bandages and allow afflicted victims of this dreaded disease, more freedom of movement with less discomfort. • These firmly knitted string bandages can be washed; sterilized and applied repeatedly until the material is worn out. All during the past months the knitters have appreciated, very much, the thoughtful co- operation of Mr. and Mrs. Ed Stiles in making their excellent facilities available for the distribution of this large supply, receiving of the finished products - and, the packing, etc - right to the last moment. The North Street Church ladies would like to gratefully, sincerely and whole-heartedly thank the kind friends who have had a part of any kind, in the suc- cessful fulfillment of this very worthwhile work. .

It's once again in the garage, and my mechanic tells me, that the mileage has been altered. I've managed to get hold of the former owner, but he strongly denies this. I feel that 1 have been taken...what can I do? Unless you can obtain a service receipt from some place where this car had work done and it showed a higher mileage than when you bought it, then there's nothing that you can do, to our knowledge.

I've written this hospital three times now with this request but have been completely ignored.

Also, I had no hot water for quite a while plus the time couldn't park in our underground garage because of repairs which seemed to take forever and a day, and to top it off there is no street parking in this area. When the building manager was con- tacted he was less than pleased, about the allegations concerning the walls and car- pets. According to him the carpets are all in excellent shape and the walls were professionally cleaned last October. He strongly accuses you of being very Hyperbolic (exaggerating excessively) and he apparently intends to continue to ignore your "unfounded complaints".
