In Canada the association -was started by Ernest Baker, Goderich, who in 1942 was. a young man afflicted with heart trouble and in- spired ' by a desire to help other. handicapped persons. One of his advertisements in a Philadelphia newspaper ..was • seen . by. Mrs.. -William. Francklyn Paris, who had contracted, pernicious anemia a few years earlier. She wrote to Mr. Baker, offering her assistance to his new association, and later that year organized the American chapter with her- self as president. Since then the cause has steadily . grown and is celebrated by many organiz- ations in both countries. Despite its popularity there are no special programs set up in Wingham for June 1 — basically because in this town every day is Shut-In's Day. The Wingham and Area Day Centre- for the Home- bound is a, prime example of an organization that offers many 'weekly services to unfortunate individuals who are unable tot'out of doors. For a small,fee clients receive transportation to and from the centreii for a day of exercises.;rafts, infor- mation seminars and games, together with a nutritious meal with other homebound individuals. The Friendship. Club is a committee set up in' con- junction with "the, United Church. Organized ' by Eleanor Ward, it invites shut-ins to a pot -luck dinner and -short- program. en.- the third Wednesday of- every month. Mrs. Barry Pass- more explained that the committee's purpose is to bring together once a month residents who would other- wise have to eat alone. Together with these examples, the various Women's Institutes and church groups are well known for sending Christ- mas cards and gifts to home- bound residents, and visiting nursing homes to sponsor a variety of programs such as birthday parties and craft workshops. Even children's organiza- tions like the local Brownies have made tray favors for patients at the Wingham and District Hospital and special visits to Brookhaven Nursing -Home. 9faiMS holds May meeting Whitechurch The Pres- byterian Women's Missionary Society held its May meeting last Wednes- day, at the home pf Mrs. Bill Rintoul. Since the program leaders were absent, it was planned by the eight members who were present, with each taking a part in the meeting. The program opened with a call to worship by Mrs. Roely DeBoer and the sing- ing of a hymn. Mrs. Bill Rin- toul read the scripture, the meditation was read by Mrs. Don Ross and Mrs. DeBder led in paryer. Mrs. Rintoul read a poem and the minutes were read by the secretary, Mrs. Bill Purdon. In the business portion of the meeting the Presbyterial at Bluevale on June 9 was discussed as was the women's camp at Kintail on. June 6-8. The correspon- dence was read by the secretary, and the roll call was answered by eight members with a verse from the Bible about flowers. A hymn was sung and Mrs. John Bell read a poem. Mrs. Wesley Tiffin then led in prayer and Mrs. Bell gave the report of the synod. The ladies' aid discussed flowers for the church for anni- versary Sgnday and the offering welt received and dedicated. Grace was sting and n delicious lunch weee served.

In a later Wavle* Mr O'Connell predicted Flgrre Trudeau will receive:p Wiper cent vote of confidencafrora delegates to the party convention at Winnipeg this - summer. He also forecast that the prime minister will call a leadership convention for the fall of 1982 in order to give a new leader some leeway before the next general election. Anoqther guest speaker 'at the meeting, Garnet Bloom- field, MP for London - Middlesex, told the gathering the comingdecade will be one of enormous change. Food will be as important an issue in the 'Ns as energy was in the 'los, he said, with a great possibility of a world food shortage before the end of the decade. He said he thinks Canadians will come to appreciate for the first time just how much they owe to their agricultural base. However he noted there are some clouds on the horizon for agriculture, particularly, in its depen- dence on fertilizer and petroleum. He„ predicted energy costs will double by 1984, effectively wiping out the equivalent of all net incomes on farms at present. The federal government must play a leading role in exploring alternatives to petroleum energy, Mr. Bloomfield said, and he looks for the implementation of an alternative energy cor- poration as a subsidiary of PetroCan. He also hailed the proposal to create an agricultural export corporation, . an 'AgroCan', and said he hopes to see a majority of farm businessmen on the, board of directors. Through cooperation we can' weather the storm and. find brighter days ahead, he concluded. In other business at the meeting :the Huron -Bruce Liberals installed -their riding executive, including a new president, and nominated delegates to 'the party convention at Win- nipeg July 4-6. Bruce McDonald of Wingham is the new . president of the association, taking over from Herb Kuntz of Formosa. He called for the Liberals to provide "stability and leadership” so that in four years time the people will reelect a Liberal majority government, hope- fully with a broader base of representation. across the country. It isn't healthy to have a majority government with just two Liberals west of Ontario, he said. He also said the- local association must spend the next four years working very hard so it can get a Liberal elected in this' riding.
