It Kin- kead, chairman of the Huron County Advisory Board, the Canadian National. Institute for the Blind. He illustrated 'his point with the true story of Fred. Martin, who lost his sight in his early sixties. To avoid embarrassment, he resigned from the service club he had enjoyed for years. Be- cause he could not avoid stones and stumps in his favorite fish- ing haunts, he gave up fishing. Since he could no longer see to read, he stopped going to church. When his self pity be- came so extreme that he re, fused to step out of.. his awn living room, his wife called the CNIB. A sightless field secretary vis- ited him and explained the Ser- vices.

It was a case of per- sonalities injecting color into an otherwise dull campaign. The personality who grabbed most of the headlines was, in- evitably, John Diefenbaker, tri- umphantly announcing he had restored unity to his splintered Progresshie Conservative party But despite slashing Opposi- tion attacks on problems of na- tional unity and scandal in gov- ernment, there was yet to, emerge a red-hot "gut" issue which could sway the one-third of the voters who are rated as still undecided on how to vote The Tory rebels who return- ed to the PC bandwagon after Mr. Diefenbaker's appeal for unity were led by George Hees, ex -Trade Minister, who gave up his job as head of the Montreal Stock Exchange to seek elec- tion in Ontario's Northumber- land riding. But the biggest catch of all —Manitoba's Premier Duff Rob- lin -eluded the Tory net. Af- ter days of suspense, Roblin announced that although he would campaign for the party federally, he would not be a candidate. Behind the return of the Con- servative defectors, there was speculation that a power play was underway among would-be succes§ors -to Mr. Diefenbaker. The other chief Tory warrior to return to the federal scene was Dave Fulton, ex -Justice minister, rated a shoo-in for his old Kamloops, B.C., seat. A 'number of top Tory organ- ization experts also put them- selves to the test of the voters, Journalist B. T. Richardson, Diefenbaker's personal' assist- ant, is going after the Toronto Spadina seat now held by the Liberals. PC association presi- dent Dalton Camp is tackling Trade Minister Mitchell Sharp in Toronto Eglinton and vice- president Dick Thrasher is tak- ing on the Liberals in Windsor, Ont., riding of Essex South. Diefenbaker critic George Ho- gan is trying for the Toronto York seat vacated by hockey star Red Kelly, but he will have stiff opposition in a prom• • inent Liberal who has returned to the fray, Robert Winters. Mr. Winters was a cabinet minister in the St. Laurent government. Pierre Sevigny returned to the Tory fold in Quebec while in Calgary, ex -Defence minister Douglas Harkness, who broke with Diefenbaker in 1963, de- scribed the closing of Conserva- tive ranks as a case of "they've come back, but I've never left," A number 'of prominent MPs of all parties have announced they'll not seek re-election. The Speaker of the House, Alan Macnaughton, of Montreal, an- nounced his retirement, along with NDP deputy leader Doug Fisher of Port Arthur, and Tory Mrs, Eloise Jones of Saskatoon. The Conservative party was also assured of more assistance from provincial premiers than Mr. Pearson will receive. In addition to Duff Roblin, Ontario's John Robarts will go all out for the l?Cs, both of them sharing the platform with Mr, Diefenbaker at an Ontario kickoff in Toronto, Oct. 1. That rally, in solid Liberal -NDP coun- try, comes a week after the official launching bf the Con- servativeoampaign in Halifax, which was fpllowed by a Dief- enbaker 'Whistle-stop tour of Quebec. Prime Minister Pearson will get little assistance from pro- vincial premiers, with the ex- ception of Joey Smallwood in Newfoundland and Premier Ro- bic d of New Brunswick. Prerhier Lesage, of Quebec, is off on a goodwill tour of. the West and refuses to even talk about the election. The Liberals got down to work with a one -day candidates' rally in Ottawa, but the PM was planning on a slow start for his campaign, promising to take the -high road above "smears, scandal and scuttle - .butt." New Democrats and Social Crediters seemed to be lost in the,• shuffle. Colleens at Dublin Meet The third meeting of the Dub- lin Colleens was held at the home of the leader, Mrs, C. Friend, on 1onday and opened with the, .H' Pledge. Topics mussed included: A Grain of Wheat; Cereals Ap- pear in Many- Forms; Breakfast Cereals; .Regular and Quick Cooking Cereals; Ready -to -Eat Cereals; Cereals Not For Break- fast; Cereal -like Foods ;Cook- ing Cereals, and some pointers on cooking price. Gayle Lannin demonstrated the cooking of cereals, and Su- san Fried; the making of whole wheat or graham muffins. Safety -Tested NoW in Progr factory. Cone of the 'first ser- vices he found useful was a Braille watch -which restored his ability to tell the time. He learned to use •Braille playing cards and took lessons in the use of the white cane from a CNIB home teacher, also blind herself. He did not believe that blind people could enjoy social activities. That summer, with extra urging, the new trainee did'V tend the annual picnic for the blind. To his surprise he dis- covered that he could take part in the games along with other blind persons and enjoyed him- self as much as he had done at picnic all his life. That fall he joined the White Cane Club where he made new friends.: "The club activities, which rehabilitate while they enter- tain, soon changed his attitude towards blindness," said the chairman. "Soon he was his old, jovial self again.

The principal re- quested parents of children being transported by bus, to remind the children of safe- ty rule and behavior in the buses. A film was shown dealing with prejudices in the home. A discussion followed leav- ing members with the real- ization that some of the ad- ult discrimination that exists need not be caught by fu -1 ture generations. - This can be accomplished by adults carefully examining com- ments and conduct in this re- gard.
