In the first ten months of 1950, it paid for the exam- ination at chest clinics of 600 per- sons. Goderich, Wingham, Seaforth, plus. new clinics at Clinton and Exe- ter, make a total of five centres for the county, all supported out of the Christmas Seal Funds. Huron should also be proud, -that a grant from their Association is aiding in the construction of the new Crombie Pa- villion at Beck Memorial Sanitorium London. In 1960, approximately 2d residents were under care in this in- stitution and many more received services from their modern out-pa- tient department. Because there will not be suffic- ient seals to send to everyone, if you should not receive yours through the mails, will you kindly contact your nearest Lions Club, who are arrang- ing the distribution of these seals again this year or leave your contri- bution with your bank and a supply will be furnished to you.

BUSINESS RULES IN THE "GOOD OLD DAYS" A few years ago, down in one of the United States •of America, a hardware company celebrated its GSth year in business by giving a hol- iday to all their employees, gave them a free banquet together with many invited guests,, to each guest they gave a souvenir program on which there appeared the following reminder of early days, Store must be open from 6 8.10 to 9 p.rn. the year round. Store must be swept, counters, shelves and show- cases dusted; lamps trimmed, filled and chimneys cleaned, pens made, doors and windows opened, a pail of water and a bucket of coal brought in before breakfast. The employee who is in the habit of smoking Span- ish cigars, being shaved at the bar- bers, going to dances' and other places of amusement will assuredly give his employer reason to be sus- picious of his integrity and honesty. Each employee must pay not less than $5.00 per year to the church. Men employees are given one even- ing a week for courting. After 14 hours in the store, the leisure hours should be spent for the most part in reading. We received the above from Wm.
