Clinton News-Record, 1952-01-10, Page 2Send Deputation to Ottawa IN AN EFFORT to come to grips with the ever-pressing problem of providing greatly- needed accommodation in town for the married personnel of the Royal Canadian Air Force Station, Clinton, the Town Council made a pretty good move at its meeting Mpnday even- ing in petitioning the Federal Minister of Re- sources and Development to arrange through Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation, for the erection of an additional 159 housing units in Clinton. The matter was brought to the attention of the Town Fathers in a recommendation of Clinton and District Chamber of Commerce which pointed out the appalling lack of facil- ities within the municipality, which necessitates 84 RCAF families not living in the area at all, and approximately 125 families being forced to live outside the town. Mayor 0. W. Nott and all members of the Council were unanimous regarding the great need that exists, and passed the resolution in. that way. It was felt that the element of speed also was important. The Mayor stated he had been in touch with local Members of Parliament to support the resolution in its consideration by the Min- ister and Department of Resources and De- velopment. Now let us add a word or two in hearty support of the project. May we humbly sug- gest that the Town Council consider seriously the matter of sending a deputation to Ottawa to give the proposal further backing. We see no reason why two or three members of Council would not be in a position to do a good job if they were given the opportunity., (Ontario Department EVER SINCE the invention of firearms, hunters have been fatally injured or have suffered the loss of arms, legs or other ,serious injury, through the carelessness of trigger- happy hunters who shoot at anything ,that moves. During the past two weeks in the Huron District, three hunting accidents have taken place, leaving two of the men in the hospital in serious condition; the third one died later. A hunter was badly wounded in the hip ' when a loaded gun, which he was carrying, discharged while he was entering a car. Another )hunter mistook a farmer for a deer and shot him in the right side of the chest. In another case, a .hunter jumped a rab- bit out of a brush pile. As he swung his gun around, it' went off, wounding a fellow hunter in the stomach at close range. This man died later. Had care been taken, all of these accidents could have been avoided. Conservation Officers of the Department of Lands, and Forests stress the need for hunters to ,be careful with firearms at all times. Surely accidents such as these will be avoided in the future. Deer Poaching The Conservation Officers of the Depart- of Lands and Forests) ment of Lands and Forests have been, very active in apprehending deer poachers this past few months. In most cases the poacher loses his rifle and pays a substantial fine. If a car is involved, it is confiscated and often the own- er may pay several hundred dollars to re- possess it, Safety Rules (By C. A. Wolfe, Conservation Officer, Kincardine) 1. Never point a gun at anyone, unloaded guns have shot people. 2. Make sure of your (distance and direction from other hunters. 3. Never use high power modern cartridges in old guns with low steel content barrels. 4, Never walk through bush or climb through fences with the safety off. 5. Do not carry a loaded gun in a car, it is dangerous as well as unlawful. Sportsmanship Rules 1. Do not shoot at game beyond ordinary gun range. You will waste ammunition and possibly spoil a good shot for some- one else or you may cripple an animal that will get away and soon die. 2. Do not take more game than you can use.

From roar Early Files I , ,. Hunting Accidents they were able ;to give this great remedy of the Kickapoos to their brothers and sisters throughout the nation regardless of color or creed. Nice of them, wasn't it? There was a magnetic swing to his talk. There was music in his voice. I don't know where he went when he left the Village of Gorrie (Huron County), but we never heard of him again. Nor strange to say, never since that night have I ever heard of "Kickapoo Indian Sagwa". I lived in the West for 21 years but so far as I can recall it no Indians of that name turned up with a bottle of "Kickapoo Indian Sagwa". If they did they escaped my vision. The Lost Remedy Yesterday I entered a drug store where I usually buy these essential needs of the man who must at times take a shave. I went in for some blades. He reached into a drawer and hand- ed me a package of my favourite brand. "What are the others?", I asked, for the drawer was full of blades. "These", said he, "are the ones which fell by the way- side and the place which once knew them for a day now knows them no more. Then I thought of my old friend, "Kickapoo Indian Sag- wa"—what a lovely name! It ought to sell the product even if it was a doubtful value. I asked my druggist friend if he remem- bered it. Was it a friend of his in the old days? He raised his eyebrows and thought for a few moments, his mind leading him back through the years. "I can look back a long distance in the drug business", he said, "and- I think I can recall that name but I fear the Indian doctor didn't sell much "Kickapoo" in Canada. Then I was in Gorrie last sum- mer, the little village close to the old family home. I was there in August. The visit stirred up many memories but not since the night of that distant meeting, years and years ago, have I thought of "Kickapoo Indian Sagwa" and "Kickapoo Healing Salve". My druggist had the answer. If a product isn't good it makes no difference who pro- duces it or who puts it on the market it must have a real value. If it hasn't it will reach the trash box in a few short weeks. If it has value, in time, it may find a market and survive, at least until a better one comes along! I doubt if there are many remedies today which can make a market by peddling the product from house to house. It costs too much, Are our doctors and druggists worth the price? There is an easy and simple test for that blunt question. The health of the peo- ple of Canada is improving. The death rate is declining. The bab- ies born into the world `have a far better chance of living than they had in the past. There has been a sharp decline in infant mortality. In a thousand live births in the average of the years 40 YEARS AGO The Clinton New Era Thursday, January 11, 1912 Mrs. N. F.

William Swan, Brucefield, has returned to Toronto University. 1921-25 the mortality tor the first year was 98. In 1948 it was 44. This is a great improvement. Maternal_ mortality has declined steadily since the 1921-25 level 'of 5 per thousand live births, to 1.4. The general death rate has fallen from 11.2 per 1,000 pop ulation to 9.3. The change reflects a great improvement, Our medical bills are high but the results are satisa factory. The improvement is dif- fused throughout the nation. The change has been, brought about by the greater skill and greater knowledge of the medical frater- nity and coupled with this better hospitals, better nurses and be- yond question—better patients. * * Our trade returns, exports and imports, industrial production, car loadings, bank deposits and loans reflect a healthy condition of our economic affairs but the basis of economic prosperity lies in the health of our people" We must guard it as one of our great national assets.
