Parts' Duff's United Church,
Walton,re' in the process of be
-
ink rebuilt and repaired. •
In the church, floors have been
recently sanded and carpeted. The
soft, maroon and grey carpet , sets
off the new-lookingfloor, which
has succeeded in giving tithe rest
of the church a warm, clean ap-
pearance.
In the 'church basement, the
kitchen has seen the most recent
and noticeable change. Organized
in a commercial manner, new cup-
boards, stoves, serving outlets and
plumbing have improved condi-
tions dose to one hundred per cent.
The new conveniences have
made work much easier for the
ladies of the church, who handle
many' banquets. Large banquets
can now be handled at a fast, 'ef-
ficient rate. Final work is sche-
duled for this week when the con-
gregation swings into action with
paint brushes.

Also close to the completion
mark are- the new ste r at•t#e
front of the church. The new
cement constr-uetlon has had mast
of the finishing touches during the
past week. Both the new steps
and hand -rails, besides making an
easier entrance, improve theap-
pearance of the church.
"The people of Duff's are good
people," said Rev. M. Thomas, as
he pointed out the work that had
been done by his parishioners. He
was a pecially•proud of the recent
decorating done in the manse.
Another of the more resent pro-
jects at Duff's was the construc-
tion of a new garage. The garage
was built closer to the main road
to eliminate shovelling snow from
a long laneway.
For the young people of the
church, summertime means church
camp. The yougger group at
Duff's have been planning camp,
which will start in another month,
and which naturally means lots of
fun. Camp -Hiawatha will be for
the boys, while Camp Minnehaha
will provide the fun for the girls.
Both camps will be held at dif-
ferent intervals at the United
Church Camp, Goderich.

pher is carried by the young and

PRESIDENT, ONTARIO HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION
People are deeply _interested in
anything which affects their batik
accounts or touches their pocket-
book.
Such being the case, men and
women . wisp have required hospi-
talization,'not to mention relatives
and friends, are prone to ask:
"Why are hospital costs so high?"
- To which I reply: "When one
considers the amazingly varied
services being rendered by hospi-
tals, and realizes the miracles
performed daily within'their walls,
it is a marvel that hospitals have
kept their costs as low as they
have. And think this over: while
the per diem cost of -hospital care
is up, the total cost for many hos-
pital illnesses is often less today
than it was a generation ago."
There are a number of reasons
why the per diem cost of hospital
care is higher today. For one
thing, diagnostic tests nowadays
are more extensive, more exact-
ing and more accurate. X-ray,
laboratory studies, microchemical
studies on body fluids, studies in
metabolism (which is a process of
chemical changes in the body)
and many delicate -tests made pos-
sible by sweeping developments in
electronies, all combine to permit
diagnoses which only a few years
ago were impossible. .
But these diagnostic tests cost
money—especially since most of
'them require specialized equip-
ment and skill and training of
competent doctors and technicians.
Today, too, treatment may be
more costly than in former years.
Delicate and complicated opera-
tions, such as on the cardiac valys„
or brain, new and highly effective
(but costly) drugs, and common
present-day procedures such as
blood transfusions and the use of
oxygen, all make possible a great
many procedures that bring about
cures. In such cases, many of
Usborne Agrees
On Hard Surface
For Township Road
Usborne Council met in regular
monthly session on Monday after-
noon with Reeve Verne Pincombe
presiding and Councillors Harold
Jeffery, Harold Hern and Clayton
Smith in attendance.
Hard surfacing road program
for 1955 was discussed. Moved by
Jeffery and seconded by Hern:
That the Exeter sideroad be sur-
faced from the Exeter limits. to
Clark Fisher's corner.
The reeve reported that he had
been advised by C. P. Corbett,
engineer, that it was quite feasible
to locate; the dam in the vicinity
of the bridge on the 2-3 concession
road. The road superintendent
was instructed to get in touch with
the district road engineer in re-
gard to the Chatter.
The reeve and clerk were in-
structed to make application to
the Livestock Branch in thenal
way for the provincial gra to-
ward the cost of the warble fly
control program.
Petition for municipal drain,
signed by Wilfred Hunkin and
others for a municipal drain, was
examined and found to be in or-
der. The petition was accepted on
motion of Jeffery and Hern. C. P.
Corbett, Prof. Eng., was appoint-
ed to examine the area outlined
in the Hunkin petition and to
Make a report to the council, on
motion of Jeffery and Smith.
Edgar Baker interviewed coun-
cil in regard to a heifer claimed
to., have been injured during the
first warble fly spray. After care-
ful consideration, council agreed
not to pay any compensation.
The road superintendent's month-
ly report was accepted on motion
of Hern and Smith and road ac-
counts passed for payment, to a
total voucher of $6,397.07.
The treasurer reported receipt
of $125.75 from the road superin-
tendent and $3,481.21 'to general
account with a balance of cash as
of May 31 of $3,414.04. Unpaid
1954 taxes sent to the County
treasurer for collection amounted
to $5,565.25.
Council discussed recent reports
of dogs worrying livestock in the
township. They instructed that
ratepayers be advised through the
local paper that the township had
a by-law requiring that all dogs
be confined at nights 'and that
ovKners of dogs found killing or
worrying livestock would be held
responsible.
Correspondence was read and
dealt with as follows: Department
of Public Welfare, re scale of sum-
mer fuel allowances; filed; De-
partment of National Revenue, re
new basis of tax deductions after
June 30; filed; Deller's Tile Ltd.,
re replacement tile for Dykeman
Drain at half price; filed; Town-
ship of Hay, re certified copy of
Aldworth Drain By -Law, council
instructed that the Usborne por-
tion be placed on the 1955 tax
roll on motion of Jeffery and Hem.
J. W. Whelihan, re change of
school support, accepted by coun-
cil as being in order; Department
of Public Works, re acceptance of
application for grant en Mair
Drain.
Current accounts in the amount
of $320A1 were passed for pay-
ment on motion of Hern and Jef-
fery.
All motions were unanimously
carried, and council adjourned to
meet again on July 11, at 8 p.m.
"Lend me a tenspot, old boy?"
"Lending often ruins friend-
ship, and ours is worth more than
ten debars."
"Fine, make it twenty."
whieh were considered hopeless:
only a decade ago, the cost is sec-
ondary, to the saving of a life.
Some of -the delicate operations
frequently performed in hospitals
today last for hours—thus tying .u -p
expensive equipment and highly -
trained specialists and technicians„
The at erage- hospital .stay thiSl
year will be less .than for a simi-
lar disease or comparative injury
some years ago. This means more
patient turnover for a given num-
ber of beds. It means, too, that
since most hospital procedures are
concentrated during the first few
days of stay, our hospitals now
have fewer convalescing patients
walking about and attending to
many of their own needs. With a
higher percentage of patients in
the acute stages of illness, the
average cost of daily care is bound
to be higher:
Because of these factors, hospi-
tal staffs have had to be consider-
ably increased. There was a time,
not too longago, when hospitals
seldom needed as many paid mem-
bers of staff as patients. An effici-
ent, well-equipped hospital now
has two and frequently more em-
ployees pen• patient, not including
the visiting medical staff.
In bygone years, working hours
in hospitals were notoriously long.
In tune with the times, this condi-
tion has been radically changed.
But unlike most industries, your
community hospital cannot oper-
ate on a five-day week. Instead, it
operates seven days a week -168'
hours — including holidays. This
means that its staff, working in
three -shifts, -must be ready for
any' eltlergency that might arise,
day or night. This "readiness -to -
serve" costs money.
As a result, of every dollar
from 60% to 65% and often as
much as 70% is now paid in sal-
aries and wages. At the same
time, hospitals now. have to pay
more for equipment, more for food
and more for services and supplies
than ever before.
These are some of the major
reasons why the "patient day"
hospital costs are high. But, from
my long association with hospitals
I am convinced that were it not
for the good organization, the care-
ful purchasing, the efficient prac-
tice of economy, and the willing-
ness of hospital employees to do
more than they have to, our daily
hospital rates would be consider-
ably higher than they are.
Because of the better results ob-
tained today, the average patient's
stay in hospital is much shorter,
and his convalescence and return
to productivity greatly accelera't=
ed; this .offsets the increased per
diem cost`. At the same time, the
average patient's income has also
greatly increased over the years,
so that the average hospital bill
should be easier to meet today
than a generation ago. And pre-
payment hospital insurance makes
it still easier.
All things considered,.residents
of Ontario might well ask: "How
can hospitals give such service
and treatment for so little?"

news for canary coloraturas! If
they'll arrange to have the
bottom of their cages lined with
