Former Clintonian
Continues Good Work
Two valuable horses from Que-
bec are recuperating from opera-
tions at Ontario Veterinary Col-
lege, Guelph. They ere in charge
of Dr. W. 3. R... Fowler, noted
practitioner, and former Clinton -
Ian, who, during 26 years of
surgery, has lost only two
animals.
Quite recently a valuable ,Show
horse was sent to the Guelph
College from Nova Scotia. After
a brief operation it was return-
ed. A fourth horse is coming
from Regina for an operation.
New equipment at the college
includes the most up-to-date
electrically manipulated electric
operating table. The animal is
strapped to the table while the
table stands on edge. Animal and
table •are then gently lowered by
electric mechanism. Suffering
and pain are eliminated by use
of anaesthetic. Sedatives are then
given to prevent unnecessary
movements.

sponded to, but when Glenn re-
turned his father had recovered
