After that, Ivy worked for about a year in .the. Knit Wit which opened in the Suncoast Mall and then in The Children's Shoppe which replaced the Knit Wit, for about another year. She says she really enjoyed working with those at the Children's Shoppe and received a lovely parting gift. Ivy and Mary were working for the same company in Sarnia, Mary. - as a stenographer and — Ivy on 'the' payroll; When ' Mary invited Ivy to go into business with her in Goderich. Both the size of Go-derich – a-nd its proximity to water ap- pealed to Ivy .and she accepted Mary's offer. Now, after almost 37 years of living and working in Goderich, Ivy is looking forward to her retirement and hopes to do .some travelling. She will -also have more time to Spend on one of her favorite hobbies -- you Winter days can turn mean quickly when the weather changes or when, you've travelled a long way from ,help on your skis pr snowmobile and an accident happens. Bill Melville says if you think ahead a bit before you start on a cold weather outing, you can probably prevent trouble or at least be prepared to deal with it if it comes. _IVielyille is a northerner who knows how to work-in the cold. He's Area Commissioner for St. John Ambulance and an expert on first aid. -He's -also a purchasing agent for Ontario Hydro and has done his share of following the route of power lines in some bleak and 'chilly parts of Ontario. He says, "You've got to took ahead when -you're going out into inclement weather. Prepare for the worst, no matter how good the weather is when you start out, prepare for the way back and for emergencies. "We carry blankets or sleeping bags in the car all winter. We always have matches and a flashlight in the glove compartment and two or three chocolate bars. I carry sand and a shovel, flares and an axe to cut firewood, because if you'l'e really stranded' you can't leave the car motor running. Even if you „only leave it on ,15 minutes at a time, you'll soon be out of -gas. Arid I carry a first aid kit,". he continues. If you're going skiing, snowmobiling or skating outdoors, dress for it. Wear a face mask and carry extra cfothes . if there's a chance the weather will get colder as the day goes on, says Melville. Find. out what the wind • chill factor is, especially if you're riving a 'snowmobile. On- a still day, when the tem- perature is 10 degrees -above zero (minus12 celsius), if you're travelling 30' miles an hour '(50 km), the wind chill factor is 33 degrees below zero (minus 36 celsius), he says. • Melville recommends, "Dress in clothing that breathes. Clothes should •be loose when that's possible, warm but let- ting air circulate. If you wear insulated .clothes and perspire inside them, when you get out, in the cold, that will freeze. And don't wear tight clothes that will cut off cir- culation." ' "It's not wise to go too far afield alone, either. If you' do have an accident, +++ Thefree taxi service offered in GOderich on New Year's Eve was a resounding success once again this year. Bruce Betties of Goderich Taxi reports 119 calls for the service, about the same •number as last year. It is hoped that the rvice can be continued again next year with the sup- port of area business people. you'll 'need someone to help. And you should use a buddy system to keep an eye on one another for signs of frostbite." You may not know your nose, your cheeks or ears are frostbitten, or your feet, especially if -you're wearing tight boots or skates. But you can see frostbite. The afflicted area shows as waxy white and hard," says Melville. The best 'treatment is a gradual warming Rif body warmth. Put a ' warm hand over ears andnose. Tuck ,---frosib.ittert hands_ and fingers under your -armpits, inside your jacket until they get warm. Don't rub frost- bite, don't put ice, snow or cold on it and don't apply heat. -- Severe frostbite is cold and sensitive and will appear white and hard as weod. It must have medical attention, Get the victim to medical -help as fast as possible and don't let the frozen ALVIN'S T.V.
