THE MAN WHO GOT
NEW YORK STARTED
In 1609 the Dutch East India
Company, sent explorer Henry
Hudson, in his ship, "The Halt
Moon," to look for mineral
wealth in America. Instead, he
found a great protected bay in-
to which flowed a majestic riv-
er from the north. He sailed
140 miles up river. His report

Weather Problem
To Health Unit
The Coupty Health Unit has
not been greatly affected by the
prolonged cold and stormy
veather, partly as a result of
planning its activities so that'
the more isolated places are
reached in spring. Schools have
experienced some absenteeism
because of respiratory illness,
Dr. R. M. Aldis, M.O.H., report-
ed.
"This seems to hit the young-
er children harder," he said.
"In junior classrooms there
might be nine absentees to a
room, but when you get up to
the senior rooms only one or
two are away."
As to health services in gen-
eral, January has not been too
bad, the M.O.H. said. More
trouble was encountered in De-
cember, when four or five ap-
pointments for T.B. testing at
South Huron high school 'had
to be cancelled, and a board
meeting postponed on account
of a storm.
"We did have to cancel some
things; -in --December on account
if storms, and complete them
in January," Dr. Aldis said.
"Month for month, January
sometimes has been a lot worse,
:;+ we had a lucky break."
