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."

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,

(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.
