Even the members of the Ladies Auxiliary are thinking towards summer since they have just put their quilt up in the hobby shop to be quilted for the bean festival draw. No doubt you will see it on display in the near future and tickets will be available here at the tuckshop and the office, as well as from the Auxiliary Members. Films were enjoyed last Mon- day evening, followed by refresh- ments. Many of our Residents would welcome partners for cards during the winter afternoons and we would appreciate volunteers. We welcome Mrs. Viola Unruh as a new Resident. She is a former resident of Plattsville and a native of the Crediton area. In the very near future, Mem- bers will be receiving their yearly financial statements and notices of the annual meeting of the Horne. The date set for the annual meeting is March 16th at 8:00 P.M. at the Home. It will be an open meeting for all interested people. and if you have any questions concerning the Maplewoods Apartments for Seniors, which will be available for occupancy in the early spring, perhaps you should plan to attend. I might also say that applications for these apartments are available at the office, and several reservations have already bean made. We regret that Mrs. Alda Simmons is a patient in South Huron Hospital, Exeter. The regular bingo was held on Friday evening followed by re- freshments. The Sunday evening chapel service vas conducted by Rev. George Anderson of the Exeter and Hensall Anglican churches. The Residents have reported that the new speaker installed in the chapel by the Ladies Auxiliary is a great asset and is very much appreciated by them.

Public reaction in this area has forced him to change his thinking on the Goderich Psychiatric Hospital, but that may possibly mean he will just obtain the same saving by putting the bolt on a couple of more general hospitals than he originally intended. The entire issue is not unlike the heated debates that reverberated across the province some years ago when rural schools were closed in favor of larger. centralized facilities. The fact remains, of course, that people don't object to such moves unless they feel they will be adversely affected to some degree. There is no suggestion that area residents who fought the closing of the Goderich hospital will continue their attack against Miller on his decision to close the Paris hospital for instance. Zurich UCW • enioy day of quilting Zurich U.C.W. met for a full day of quilting on Wednesday, February 4. A pot -luck dinner was enjoyed at noon. A short meeting was held in the afternoon when Marlene Desjardine led in the worship period. The Scripture reading from Psalms 19 was read by Ina Neeb and a reading "Am I my Brother's Keeper" was given by Marlene. A sum of $136.30 was reported collected by the U.C. women for the March of Dimes. it was announced that the World Day of Prayer on March 5 will be at the R.C. church at St. Joseph. The Roll Call was answered by giving a report of `hobo' visits made and money received. These will be discontinued for the present but will be made again in the future.

John 14:6 Everyone Welcome IIMMINMEMNIMMII People are still caught in the situation where they want the government to cut spending, but they don't want those cuts to affect them directly. A TV news report last week showed a Toronto hospital that had two floors comp- pletely vacant, while another report showed the violent reaction being generated by those who may lose their jobs over the closing of another Toronto hospital. Obviously, Mr. Miller is deserving of the criticisms heaped on him if health care is being undermined in this province, but he's on the right track if he can make cuts and still provide the service people deserve. Last week, the Ontario Medical Associa- tion raised objections to the closing of hospitals while at the same time announcing increased fees for the 12,000 doctors in Ontario. Everyone wants to have his cake and eat it too...and our economy just won't take it!
