Clinton News-Record, 1973-04-26, Page 7and a homemaker was
requested by the Children's Aid
Society to look after the young
children so the husband could
continue working. The
homemaker discovered on
arriving, that this family did
not have enough bedding to
provide a set for each bed, and
also lacked towels and other
household necessities. She ad-
vised the homemaking agency
of this problem. Mrs. MacKin-
non said, that over the years
she has developed a supply of
essential household supplies by
encouraging , donations from
different sources, so that when
a situation like this turns up,
some supplementary help can
be given.
When the homemaker was
through helping this family, a
letter was received from these
parents, thanking them for
their help and saying 4ow
grateful they were, knowing
someone "cared".
In Hamilton, homemakers
are involved in providing
homemaking to senior citizens,
either by the citizens paying
themselves or through Social
Service assistance. Sometimes
it is the homemaker who
discovers when illness or death
has occurred.
Mrs. MacKinnon stated, "In-
dependence, is one of the most
precious needs in everyone's
life", and homemaking is one
of the methods in maintaining
this independence.

A matter of Principle .....---
BY J. CARL HEMINGWAY
We have heard a great deal about the high cost of foods. It
seems to me that the ignorance of consumers is being ex-
ploited by publicity seeking groups or persons.
On a recent T,V. program, the results of a food price sur-
vey taken on ten basic food products showed no' increase in
total in the last month.
The prices were taken in supermarkets in the principal
cities in each province across Canada. Some items were up,
others were lower and didn't follow any particular pattern.
But the important point is that the grocery bill didn't go up
in the total.
The boycott on meat really wasn't justified and though it
did hurt farmers, particularly hog farmers who panicked
briefly and rushed too many hogs to market for a few days.
The beef producers handled the situation much better by
simply withholding a percentage of the market cattle and
adjusting the supply to the demand. The market did dip
slightly for a day or two but has recovered quickly.
' The boycott could very well be a help to farmers in the
long run. In the first place it has shown that there isn't suf-
ficient meat supply Vraii*rit .fa'kWiriag:44.16.46iiifcl Co

that they can very''‘V'ell control-"the firi&of their product at
the farm gate and adjust it effectively to match increased
costs and the failing buying power of their dollar.
Distasteful as it may be, it seems clear that farmers must
match their production of food stuffs to the demand that will
give there an income that will permit farmers to survive.
The futile effect of the boycott surely must make a great
many people realize that our capacity to produce food is
limited by poor weather conditions. If the people of Canada,
and the. world for that matter, are unwilling to finance the
storage costs of surplus food production in good years to
take care of shortages in bad years farmers will have to try•
to match the supply to the demand that will give a price suf-
ficient for survival.
In bad years this will mean starvation conditions for
many. If farmers are forced out of production much beyond
their present position it will mean starvation conditions for
all of us.

Mrs.. MacKinnon, a native of
Clinton, discussed the role of a
visiting homemaker in today's

most families functioning as
isolated units, there is more
need for someone to help take
over the homemaking role in an
emergency.

Association in Hamilton has
developed from a small nucleus
of women, interested in helping
others in time of need, to over.
150 women who offer
emotional support to families,
as well as prepare special diets,
provide bedside help
with budgeting, and provide
care for children, when needed.
The homemaker's services,
are available to the public by
paying for the homemaker
privately or the homemaker
being provided by Children's
Aid Societies. Social Services of
the Home Care Program.
Homemaking can be a very
rewarding vocation, Mrs.
MacKinnon stated, as the
homemaker obtains the
satisfaction of helping other
people at times of sickness or
other problems.
She told of a family in
Hamilton, where a mother was
in hospital haVing a new baby
