A Warm welcome awaits you at Exeter Pentecostal Church! When people ask John Kellerman of Dashwood what he does all week long in Toronto there is no easy answer. Most people who know Kellerman know he works with the Company of Young Canadians, but few have much idea about the aims and purposes of CYC, or Kellerman's job with that group. The fairly new organization is financed by the federal government. Presently it employs approximately 220 young men and women who work in various areas of social and economic development for the benefit of Canada and Canadians. Kellerman, a 24-year old victim of cerebral palsy. is one of this select group of young visionary Canadians. He is the only member of CYC from Western Ontario and the single handicapped person in the entire organization. His project is securing a better life for the handicapped in Canada and since his work began in February of this year, Kellerman has met with considerable success. Just recently he was awarded the CKEY Good Citizen award for his efforts in organizing a trip for seven young people with cerebral palsy to attend a Kairos National Council convention at the University of Manitoba, Winnipeg. "I feel one most important fact of the conference was the impact that physically handicapped people can both make and contribute to such a conference," said Kellerman on his return. "You see, the rest of the delegates could not brush us off, because we were there in the flesh. They found out that we were human just as much as they were and that we, the abnormal, could think and had ideas as they did." Most satisfying result of the trip was the decision of one young man at Winnipeg to chair a committee on the problems of the handicapped. "This is the biggest thing that has happened so far in Canada Square dancers start new term The coming of October saw square dance activities resume in Exeter for the season. The beginners' group, under caller-instructor Norm Whiting, began Monday night. Registration will continue for two more weeks. The class will be held Thanksgiving Monday. The annual Fun Dance was held Saturday night to introduce square dancing to those who think they would like to learn. Norm Whiting was caller for the evening, with about 15 couples in attendance. Exeter Promenaders resumed dancing October 2. Lawrence Mitchell was guest caller for the evening. He will call alternate weeks during October, with Norm Whiting filling in. The original club caller, Earl Bowles of Clinton, was transferred to CFB North Bay, where he is calling for two square dance groups. The Promenadets and the beginners' group dance in the Exeter Arena. New residents in the area who are already club dancers are cordially invited to attend Wednesday evenings. WOODHAM UNITED CHURCH Autioetdatuy and 17doutiaf ecieg9 Setace Sunday, Oct. 13 11:00 a.m. Rev. Thomas Elliott Guest Come & worship for the handicapped," observed Kellerman. "But I wonder how many went home from the conference feeling less afraid of the handicapped and more willing to involve them in the affairs of their own municipalities." On numerous occasions, Kellerman has charged that established agencies for the handicapped like the March of Dimes and Crippled Civilians are doing things "for" the physically handicapped when the ideal arrangement would be to do things "with" them. "I am definitely opposed to segregating the handicapped," Kellerman stated. "Right now, many many handicapped people between the ages of 16 and 40 are shut up in "jails" because they are not permitted to become integrated with non-handicapped people." One of Kellerman's pet projects is a camp which would operate for six months of the year. Here, handicapped and non-handicapped young Canadians would have an opportunity to mingle and get to know each other. The camp would be "physically situated" for the convenience of the handicapped, but all of its activities would be strictly normal with no special emphasis on the handicapped. Another of Kellerman's dreams is to create an awareness of the "architectural barriers" that prevent handicapped persons from entering public buildings. A full-time transportation system for the handicapped in all of Canada's big cities has high priority on Kellerman's list of ways to assist the handicapped. In Toronto, for instance, it is estimated there are between 2,000 and 5,000 persons who could use such a service right away. Ideally in the form of a free (or nearly free) cab service, a transportation system for the handicapped would make it possible for physically afflicted people to get to movies, theatres, meetings, restaurants, exhibitions etc. "Saturday nights used to — and still do — bother me, because that's when my friends are out having a ball," relates Kellerman. "Without TV I would have gone nuts for nine lonely years while I finished high school by correspondence." "Did you know that beginning October 27, people over 65 years of age will be able to fly at half fare?" asked Kellerman. "I think some similar arrangement should be made for the physically handicapped." Special telephone equipment for people like Kellerman with impaired speech is available but it is "out of reach" for most handicapped persons. A speaker-phone which is a box-like affair more easily held by a handicapped person than the conventional cradle-type receiver is available which also helps to ungarble the speech of the handicapped one for his listener. "I need this equipment bad," said Kellerman, "but it costs $10 monthly extra. I think $3 or $5 MISSING PERSONS BUREAU 0 "When did he wise up mean how long has he been gone?" "Don't you think you're start- ing her out a 1 ttle young?" a month extra would be sufficient." Pensions for the handicapped, is of course another vital concern for Kellerman. He believes the monthly minimum should be $150 "without the $24 ceiling". "You've got to have guts to live in this world," noted Kellerman." He was referring to the fact that his wallet was stolen while on his trip to the Winnipeg convention. "It was a good thing it happened to me and not one of the other young handicaps on the trip," added Kellerman. "I'm not easily discouraged." One of the greatest disappointments for Kellerman has been the lack of response from other handicapped persons, but the young man continues doggedly to fight his battle with society for all handicaps—alone. Kellerman describes it this way. "Society has rejected them (the physically handicapped). They have no way of getting into the midstream of life." A courageous young man, Kellerman is finding new avenues to help those who are too discouraged to try to help themselves. That's what he does all week long in Toronto, thanks to the Company of Young Canadians' fund. Anyone wanting more information on CYC can have it by writing Act: 323, Chapel Street, Ottawa 2. Anyone wanting to lend the voice of support to CYC — or more particularly, Kellerman's project — can assist the cause by writing that opinion to MP Robert E. McKinley. Usborne slates two year terms Usborne council following recent moves of many district municipalities passed a bylaw last week providing two-year terms for the Reeve and council, beginning with the 1968 nomination and election. A recent bylaw regulating the township of Usborne for hunting purposes was amended following a suggestion from the Minister of Lands and Forests that the minimum number of non-resident licences be set at 200. There will be no limit on licences issued to residents of the township. After reading of the necessary reports, council provisionally adopted the Wallis-Morley, Tomlinson and Carroll Municipal Drains. No objections were received on the above-mentioned reports. A request asking for improvement of the Pym Municipal Drain was accepted and will be forwarded to Engineer C. P. Corbett for a survey, plan and report. Former Reeve Archie Etherington was nominated to become a member of the new Huron Planning Board to be appointed by County Council. The township borrowing limit was increased by $50,000 to a total of $200,000. Announce New Healing Substance: Shrinks Piles Exclusive healing substance proven to shrink hemorrhoids and repair damaged tissue. A renowned research institute has found a unique healing substance with the ability to shrink hemor- rhoids painlessly It relieves itching and discomfort in minutes and )peeds up healing of the injured, inflamed tissue. In case after case, while gently relieving pain, actual reduction (shrinkage) took place. Most important of all—results were so thorough that this improve- ment was maintained over a period of many months, This was accomplished with a new healing substance (Bio-pytle) which quickly helps heal injured cells and stimulates growth of new tissue.

A letter WAS received advising that the annual convention would be held in February and stating it would be advisable to reaerve rooms at the Royal York Hotel as soon as poasible. Reeve Boyle and Councillor Joe Wooden came with some of their usual comments about the convention, and Boyle pointed out no decision could be made because the 1969 council may decide not to attend, However, Councillor Ross Taylor presented a motion that anyone desiring to go be permitted to do so. Mayor Jack Delbridge ruled that such a motion was perhaps premature, but did suggest two rooms be reserved at any rate. He noted they could be cancelled if no one decided to attend. A motion to this effect was presented by Councillors Taylor and Vriese, the latter with some urging from the Mayor, and a vote was then taken. The Mayor had to ask for a recount when it first appeared the vote had been lost. However, it ended up three to Thieves strike district homes Ontario Provincial Police from Exeter and Goderich are investigating a number of breakins at private residences along Highway 21 between Grand Bend and Goderich. Speculation is that the thieves were proceeding north and entered several homes where it appeared no one was home. There were two breakins in the Exeter detachment area, with $20 in cash being. stolen at one place. The majority of entries were made in the Goderich detachment area. In Hensall this week there were two thefts, both taking place Saturday night. William Bowers, RR. 1 Goderich, reported the theft of his $300 guitar. He was playing at the Hensall Hotel on the weekend when the instrument was taken. It was later found in the doorway of a nearby store. A wrecker was taken from the lot of Hensall Motors the same night and was found Monday morning at the C. A. McDowell ready-mix plant on Highway 83 in Exeter. • ad° two in favor With Taylor, Vriese and Cudmore overriding Boyle and Wooden.
