School tree plantings
Student employment office open
EXETER — The Exeter Service Canada Centre for Youth (SCCY)
opened its doors for the summer on May 1.
Celebrating more than 35 years of summer service,
the SCCY is looking forward to another successful sum-
mer of helping students find work and employers find
enthusiastic student employees. Our services are pro-
vided free to both students and employers.
The SCCY invites employers and homeowners to place
a job order this season. Whether you need a full-time
employee or someone for a few hours to do odd jobs
around your home or business, we have enthusiastic
students ready and willing to work. Students are afford-
able, hard working and skilled. Why not put them to
work for you this summer? SUMMER
Students, check out our job binder for full-time and EMPLOYMENT
part-time job opportunities. Students can also sign up OFFICER
for the Odd Job Squad if they are looking for casual,
temporary work. The Odd Job Squad is an excellent opportunity for stu-
dents to build their resumes and earn extra cash. The Squad is ideal for
those who are still in school or who are holding another full-time or
part-time job.
The SCCY bridges the gap between students looking for work and
employers looking for summer workers. The Summer Employment
Officers (SEOs) who work at the SCCY are students themselves and offer
workshops on effective job search techniques. Whether you are writing
your first resume or are preparing for an interview for a summer job in
your field, SEOs are here to help.
The SCCY also has an excellent resource library. We have information
on effective job search techniques, labour legislation, labour market
information, information on health and safety in the workplace and
information on other Government of Canada programs and services.
The Exeter SCCY is located at 349 Main St. S., Exeter. Our office is
open Monday to Friday, from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. to assist employers
and students. You can call the office at (519) 235-1711 or fax us at (519)
235-2716.
For more information on the Government of Canada's programs and
services, please call the toll-free Youth Info Line at 1-800-935-5555, the
touch-tone phone or teletypewriter line (TTY) at 1-800-926-9105, or

Capsule Comments
by Ernie Miatello
A diagnosis of diabetes can be frightening. You
can't cure it but it certainly can be controlled.
Usually diabetes is diagnosed when a fasting
blood sugar is over seven. With a combination of
good attention to diet, exercise and blood sugar
monitoring, diabetics can live long and happy lives.
It was back in 1850 that doctors first began to take the patient's
temperature as a regular part of making a diagnosis. Back then it
took about 20 minutes to get an accurate temperature. In 1866, the
first clinical thermometer was developed in England. This sped up
the process immensely.
Statin drugs are very popular in the treatment of high cholesterol. In
the United Kingdom, on of the statins became available without a
prescription in the middle of 2004. It's debatable whether which was
a good decision or not. Being available OTC means it isn't covered
under many drug plans. Not good for many people.
Before you leave the pharmacy, read the label of your prescription
medication and check the contents. Brand of medications are
always changing. We'II let you know when this happens.
We enjoy our interactions with our customers. Helping you
understand the medications you take is an important part of our job.
If you are looking for a pharmacy to feel good about, give us a try.
