County Health Unit eport Given To Council January Session Goderich --- There were 68 cases of rabies in llunron Coun- ty last year. 74 exposed humans required the 14 -day vaccine treatment, and one patient de- veloped paralysis on completion of his series. In his annual report to county 'council, at the January session, Dr. R. M. Aldis, M.O.H., said that 11 veterinar- ian clinics had been held in the last five months of the year and 971 dogs and cats immunized. A man died of tetanus whose only history of injury was that a plank fell on his foot about two weeks previously. Evident- ly there had been a minor break in the skin of the toe, but medi- cal attention had not been sought until lockjaw symptoms set in. Live births in the county numbered 1,130, stillbirths seven and there were 23 neo- natal and infant deaths. No maternal deaths were reported. A slight increase was ob- served in veneral disease, which is occurring more frequently in the 15-20 age group. Attendance at chest clinics rose to 771, and three new cases of tuberculosis were reported. This year the county is sched- uled to have a mass survey for tuberculosis. At the 1960 sur- vey, among 24,148 persons test- ed, pulmonary tuberculosis was found in 17. Persons discov- ered with •diseases other than TB numbered 515. "In the fight against tuber- culosis," Dr. Aldis said, "the greatest obstacle is the apathy of the people. It must be re- emphasized that this disease has no symptoms in its early stages." Infectious hepetitus has de- clined in incidence, but one death from this cause was noted last year. The medical officer shared in a project of research into deaths from cancer in the county. This study will continue for a three- year period and is intended to analyze differences in the his- tories and incidence of cancer (certain forms) occurring here as against characteristics in other areas of the province. As of December 31 there were 37 Health Units in Ontario, and full-time public health services are now provided to 85% of the people in this province, Dr. Aldis reported. "We are pleased," he said, "to note an increase in the number of nursing visits, up 1,113 over 1962 .to 9,801, and that the age groups served are more comprehensive.

More re- quests are being received for bedside nursing care, and these are being handled on a limited basis. "Studies in Canada and the U.S. have established that home- makers services and bedside nursing do remedy many of the problems resulting from chronic illness, and do rectify any in- equities that may result from imbalances in the availability of beds." (The warden's and personnel committee of county council last year discussed homemaker serv- ice, and at the November ses- sion recommended that no ac- tion be taken at this time.) "In the meantime," states the I LO.H. in his report, "it is sug- gested that municipalities night make a file of possible recruits for such a service and strength- en co-operation between welfare and health departments. Through liaison with the On- tario Community Health serv- ices at Goderich end London, the Health Unit has continued to assist in obtaining early treatment for these patients, and to assist the families in their rehabilitation." 0 Personals Mr. and Mrs. Charles Thiel spent Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. Florin Tieman, in Kitchener.

"JUSTIFICATION BY FAITH" as the one doctrine which distinguishes Christianity from other religions. And yet justification by faith has no power until we discover where our faith rests. It is Christian doctrine only when we say faith in Jesus as the glorified Lord. The important aspect of this doc- trine is not man's faith: it is the One in whom we have our faith. It is faith in One who is completely adequate to forgive us and save us now and in the age to come.
