TEDDYATRICIAN Frank Wong prefers treatment for the teddy bear of Sheila Witt of
Seaforth at the teddy bear clinic held at the Seaforth Community Hospital on Saturday.
The teddy bear clinic was devised as a way for children to get to know the health care
system, without having to go out on a limb themselves -teddy takes all the chances.

New for rent in Seaforth's commercial
district in recent days is 2,270 square feet of
commercial space, and two apartments. All
are available in the former medical clinic
building.
Jim Preszcator, owner of the building, has
been putting time and money into the
building over the past two months, getting
the apartments renovated and the commer-
cial space ready to be leased.
Die west end of the building contains two
apartments, one upstairs and one down. Mr.
Preszcator says they are huge apartments,
the bedrooms being 12x14, the downstairs
kitchen 16x12 and the living room is 12x26.
Mr. Preszcator will be installing
chandeliers, ceiling fans and electric heat,
and the living room of the downstairs apart-
ment contains a fireplace which will be con-
verted to natural gas. A washer and drier
will come with the apartments. The
downstairs apartment has two bedrooms
and the upstairs apartment has three
Mr. Preszcator will be asking $500 per
month for the downstairs apartment and
$450 for the one upstairs.
I realize it's $100 more than they're ask-
ing downtown, but you can hardly compare
these apartments to those," he says.
Outside the apartments have already
been completely renovated. Several layers
of old paint were burnt off the victorian
building and some new coats applied. A new
roof was added, sheeting replaced, and the
chimney and cornerstones were repaired.
The commercial space where the medical
clinic used to be is now completely wide
open with no partitions. Mr. Preszcator says
it can be re -partitioned to accommodate
professional offices -three or four of them -
or it can be left open to accomnodate so-
meone with a need for a lot of space.
The entire building has been rewired and
