We appreciate the generosity
of those who, b'y their contri-
butions, are assisting in the
control of this dread disease
in our county. Such contribu-
tions finance free chest clinics
in five county centres and an
educational program in pro-
moting same. The present cam-
paigns ends Fgbruary 28th; it
is hoped that many of the 6300
residents who have not yet sent
in their contributions will do so
before that date, in order that
our work need not be curtailed.
The officers of the association
would particularly like to thank
all volunteers who helped in
folding the seals, the postmas-
ters and their assistants in de-
livering the seals, and Station
CKNX, Wingham, for their con-
tribution of advertising. The
officers of the association want
to think you, Mr. Editor, for
the publicity that you have giv-
en this import cause.
Yours sincerely,
D. I. STEWART,
Chairman, Christ-
' mas Seal Committee
J. E. McKinley, President.
HOME WAS NEVER LIKE THIS
When the British Common-

tion set up a scientific outpost
during the International Geo-
physical Year in 1956, one K.
V. BlaikIock and seven men re-
mained through the howling
winter to .build a camp. Sea
ice broke away nearby, bearing
off most of their supplies. The
eight men .lived through much
of thee Antarctic winter.

Henson Library
Circulation
Shows Increase
Circulation at Hensall Public
Library during 1962 was 7,717
books, borrowed by 241 persons,
a report presented to the annual
meeting Tuesday evening re-
vealed. Presented by secretary -
treasurer, James A. Patterson,
the report reviewed activities
of the year.
Reeve Norman Jones was ap-
pointed chairman for the com-
ing year. The former officials
were reappointed for the coin-
ing year at the same salaries,

The secretary- read the libra-
rian's reports on the circula-

tion 340, juvenile fiction 145,
non-fiction 109; total 594.
The circulation has decreas-
ed to the level of the 1960 re-

lost several heavy readers

from the community, the libra-
rian's report said. We have just
recently recovered new mem-
bers, especially in the rural dis-
triet.
Total circulation during the
year was as follows: adult fic-
tion 3,839, juvenile fiction 3,-
062, non-fiction 816; total cir-
culation 7,717. Total borrowers:
adult 161, boys and girls 89,
total 241. Total books added
during the year were: adult fic-
tion 96, juvenile 40, non-fiction

added, eight were gifts from
readers, or former readers. .

books on the shelves or in cir-
culation after . discarding 75
during the year listed as fol-
lows: adult classed 1,360, adult

How Fast Would We Fix Your Phone?
If you're like most people, you probably can't recall the
last time anything went wrong with your phone service. To-
day's phone equipment is built and maintained to provide
fast, dependable service, 24 hours a day. However, should
something happen to your phone service, you naturally want
it back in working order as fast as humanly possible. We
do, too. That's why our service people work with two clocks.
One that tells the time a service call comes in, and the other,
the approximate time a servicemen will be at your doorstep.
The time varies depending upon the work Load or disposition
of the work force, but it is generally only a matter of a few
hours. (Emergencies, of course, are taken care of at once).
While we constantly check to prevent trouble before it hap-
pens --once in a -while something may go wrong. If it does,
you can be sure we'll fix it fast -at no extra cost to you.

If there's work to be done to improve your
home, now is the time to put it in hand.
Wintertime is the time when ,hands skilled in
putting houses in order are available at short
notice. Now is the best time to get repairs
and renovations done thoroughly, quickly and
at lowest, cost.
