"Eat all you want and still
lose."
Sound familiar? They
should, because today's
magazines and books abound
with diets and hints for
losing weight. Being 'thin' is
considered being 'in'.
Unfortunately there are no
shortcuts to Josing weight.
As .many people will verify,
it is a long and hard struggle
to lose. It is an even harder
struggle to keep the weight
off.
Here are some tips for
sensible weight loss provided
by the hospital dietitian:
1. Prevent excess weight if
possible. Even at an early
age, food habits can be
modified to prevent extra
pounds adding up. Practice
good health 'habits with
sensible eating and sufficient
physical exercise. Permit
snacking, but discourage the
frequent use of empty
calorie foods. As parents, set
good examples by practicing
good eating habits your-
selves. Remember that
overweight children have an
89 per cent chance of
becoming overweight adults.
2. Before beginning any
weight loss program check
with your physician. He will
be able to offer sound advice
and may want to weigh you
on a regular basis.
3. Join a group or have
individual counselling. Many
people find that dieting with
a group is a successful way
to lose. There are several
excellent weight control
groups -in this area. On the
other hand, individual
counselling may be
preferable through a refer-
ral from the physician to the
hospital dietitian.
4. Follow Canada's Food
Guide. Whether you join a
group or,work on your own,
sensible food choices are a
must. No reducing diet
• should eliminate whole food
groups. Your body needs to
be well nourished while it is
beatitnilg slimnierf:,;th0
meals per day plussnacks
are often recommended.
Don't skip meals, especially
breakfast. And remember,
fad diets don't work.

weight does not accumulate
overnight, therefore it takes
a whileto shed it again.
7. Analyze your eating
habits. Do you eat fast? Slow
down; chew your food; let
your fork rest after each
mouthful. Do you nibble?
Write down everything you
eat and you won't have time
to nibble. Do you clean up
everybody else's plate? Let
someone else clear off 'the

Play safe in
the water,
says IAPA
• Water sports can be ,fun,
but it pays to play it safe
when you are swimming or
boating, says the Industrial
Accident Prevention Asso-
ciation.
The IAPA has these
suggestions for fun and
safety in or near the water:
Never swim alone; always
swim with at least two other
,people.
Never swim after dark.
Know your swimming
area. There may be under-
water dangers.
If you want to swim a long
distance, follow the shoreline
and always be accompanied
by a boat.
Wait two hours after
eating before going in the
water.'
All non -swimmers must
wear life -jackets when
playing in or around the
water.
Boating is fun, but ail non-
swimmers Faust wear life-
jackets.
• Sit still in the centre of
your boat. If you want, to
change places go to shore:
If your boat capsizes,
HANG ON even if you are
only a short distance from
shore.

BELMORE • "What
rights do our native people in
Canada have?" was the
question asked by Mrs.
Ralph Dickson as she in-
troduced, the study 'at the
September meeting of the
Women's Missionary SOciety
of Knox Presbyterian
ChurCh, Belmore.
Native people are given
free education, free medical
care and have freedom of
religion but they are in,
danger of fining their native
culture, their ceremonial
rites, even their reserves.
Some things they would like
to have are education which
includes their own history,
arts, crafts and language;
and the opportunity to make
their own decisions.
• As their white neighbors
and the RC1VIP get to know
the native people, relations
improve. Several problems,
were discussed. Though no
solutions were found, a
'greater understanding of the
plight of Canada's native
people was achieved.

THE DANGERS OF
ARTS AND CRAFTS
Arts and crafts are sup-
posed to be good for you; but
they could make you sick if
you use materials you're not
familiar with, says the In-
dustrial Accident Prevention
Association.
Many of the materials
people use in arts and crafts
are hazardous: potters'
glazing materials; dark-
room chemicals; paints;
spray solvents may be toxic
or even cancer producing.
To be sure your hobbies
don't cause injuries, IAPA
suggests you check these
points when you take up a
hobby:
Never use sprays In an tine
ventilated area.
Avoid plastic ki that use
vinyl chloride as a Solvent.
Be extra careful when
material is heated.
Avoid materials con,
taining asbestos or lead.
Wear a face mask if YOH
are using clay or paint pit
ments.
After any hobby ,
clean up with a darty
afterwards.
