S. ATKEY A. L. COLQUHOLTN • Edit& Plant Manager THURSDAY, AUGUST 5, 1948 CLINTON HOSPITAL SHOULD BENEFIT , The Federal Government has just announced new health, grants from the $30 million voted by Parliament at the last session—a move Which is intended to be a step toward, a national ,health service. Ontario will receive $9,667,979 as her share of the fund, 'and it is noted that the largest single grant is for hospital construction amounting to $4,336,439, This is a "Matching grant," available if the Provinces put up ..at least as much money as the Federal Government Premier,George A. Drew already has stated the intention of the Ontario Government to take advantage of any Federal health grants that offered, The hospital grant will be paid on the basis of $1,000 for each new bed provided for acute cases, and $1,500 for new beds for chronic cases. The amount paid from Federal funds isnot to exceed one-third of the total cost. It also should be noted that orders -in -council for dis- tribution of the Federal health grants provide that a hospital . survey must be undertaken by the Provinces and a master plan of hospital ,facilities drawn up. . Individual projectsstarted now qualify for the .Fed- eral grants of $1,000 and $1,500per bed, but they must be included in the.master plan. The grant, which will cost $13. million a year for the next five years if the Provinces use it fully, was based on the estimate that Canada. needs 60.000 new hospital beds in the next ten years. The estimate took into account both, present requirements ,and those foreseeri. in that period. Federal officials said, however, that a system of compulsory health insurance would require still larger hos- pital facilities. Clinton Public Hospital has received its gran,t--*or most of it --from the Ontario Government on the .batis of $1,000 per bed for the construction of the new wing. Providing the Ontario Government agrees to the "master plan" idea and undertakes a survey that will satisfy the Federal anthorities, no reason should exist for not receiv- ing the anticipated matching Federal grant in due course. The addition to Clinton Public Hospital certainly should come well within the category of "projects started now." 0 0 0 THE BYWAYS OF ONTARIO From the network of modern highways that interlace Ontario, like the smaller branches of *a tree, short, little,travelled local roads or byways, lead to the secluded beauty spots of the Province that nature withholds from all except the most persistent seeker. There are many such roads and beauty spots in Huron County—and not far from Clinton, either! These are roads of yesterday, leading seemingly no- where, and bearing little resemblance to the modern paved thoroughfares of two or more lanes that link the towns and cities, the farms, mines and summer playgrounds, alid over which pass endless streams of motor traffic with a minimum of delay,—roads of a day when time was not all-important and leisure could be enjoyed. These are the devious paths that lead you most directly to the soul of the country. They have no pattern; never do you find two alike. This one winds down to a little I. cove along the lakeshore with :its Miniature sandy beach. your private beach for the moment. The next leads upward to the crest of a rocky wind-swept plateau from where you may watch the glorious sunset of a summer's evening. A third takes you to the site of an old stone grist mill, a forlorn landmark of the commerce of an earlier day. Another brings you to the bank of a tiny sparkling stream in which you just know fish lurk. And yet another ends abruptly in the .shade of a thickly -wooded dell. Many afford a restful drive through an avenue of trees; all have the charm of providing the unexpected. They are the roads we knew in our youth, in the days before the advent of the motor car -7 -the same narrow dirt surfaces we trudged along barefoot, winding around and over natural obstacles,', bounded here and there by rail and uprooted shunp fences erected by our grandfathers. Their quiet charrn as driveways will never fade, 000 EDITORIAL COMMENT Highway signs that say, "Speed Limit 50 Miles an Hour"' are posted for your protection. They mean that you can drive at the rate of 50 miles per hour, provided that in doing SQ you are not endangering the safety of anyone on the road,including yourself.

STYLED AND DESIGNED TO INFLUENCE THE FUTURE F•••;•, TfluRsr•Ay, • AUGUST . 5, 048.- Successful Project Engagements Announced Staged by Junior WI (contributed) Thursday, July 29, ,at 9:45 a.m., eight members of Clinton Junior Institute, namely Margaret Lobb, Marion Jones, Freida Blake, Do- reen and Dorothy McGuire, Mrs, George Colclough, 1VIrs. Fred Snary and 1VIrs. Jack Merrill -- assembled at the Agricultural Board Room awaiting the arrival of the glove -making instructress, Miss Hopkins, Toronto. At ,ten o'clock Miss Hopkin arrived and immediately the classes began, lasting until 4 p.m. each afternoon. Patterns and materials were chosen and the cutting and fit- ting followed. Only a small amount of stitching was done the first day but Friday and Satuel• dayclasses kept the girls well occuided, not mentioning the pin pricks they suffered from. Saturday afternoon, however, the girls completed their project and were all very proud of their work. These girls have certainly something to be proud of, as the gloves are very dressy. Some chose brown hides while others chose black, Congratulations, girls, on the fine work you have done as it is a very worthwhile project for yourselves and something which can be taken to the other mem- bers of the organization. We feel also that a good deal of credit should go to you who have done the work as well as to Miss Hopkins, who so capably instructed the class.
