For instance: Women libbers will be pleased to learn, that women have broken down one of the last remaining bastions of masculinity i.e., the vocation of selling beer. Formosa Spring Brewery announced last week the hiring of the Ms, as sales representatives for their products. + + + Another firm, Laurier Life Insurance boasts that it not only employs older women but ac- tively seeks their help. The company says the release, has grown by leaps and bounds in the past few months through sales of small policies to senior citizens (mostly women) without demanding a medical examination. It also hires more than the usual number of women who are advanced in years or handicapped. Says the president, "These people are proving to be most useful and they work with the same fervor as the young." + + + From the Egg Producers Industry comes the speech of Dr. Robert C. Atkins, a new York internist and diet specialist. He told a group of assembled eggmen, recently, that eggs and their cholesterol are not a factor in heart disease, Rather, it's the volume of sugar and car- bohydrates in the average North American diet that's doing the damage. (We have yet to hear from the sugar industry.) + + + A notice from a health magazine warns against the practise of laymen piercing ears . a fashion now popular with girls and some boys, The article points out,ear piercing can be dangerous when performed by an untrained person. A survey showed almost half of a group who had their ears pierced by an amateur experienced one or more unpleasant complications such as excessive, bleeding, inflammation, infection or irritation due to the metal of the earrings. + + + A pilot car has been developed in Japan that won't let itself be driven by drunken drivers. A device built into the steering wheel sniffs a driver's breath, just as his wife might. If the driver has drunk too much, the device automatically stops the car's engine. + + + Again from Japan: The Japanese who rarely waste or throw away anything have found a way to make a profit out of worn-out tires. They grind them into a powder which can be used as a highway paving material or as a base of the production of other rubber goods. + + + Egyptians are- among the world's top movie-goers. They attend an average of 19 films a year. + + + And in case you'reinterested in why elephants have fewer dental problems than people it's because an elephant may grow from six to seven sets of teeth during his lifetime. . + + + People today are going for all kinds of unusual house pets, ranging from mongooses to ocelots, But if you would like to have a pet wolf around the house, remember this: No one yet has been able to housebreak a wolf. + + + Poet John Keats was an apothecary's apprentice before his lyric gift won him fame. Producer Billy Rose was a secretary and short hand expert. Merchant king J. C. Penny opened a butcher shop that failed, + + + You can read interesting things in your own newspaper too, For example I noted in the T-A 'for sale' ads that Editor Batten was selling his baby buggy, bathinette, etc. Such a show of confidence! Ten to one he's out buying the whole kit and kaboodle back again a year from now. + + + GREAT RIDE FOR CANCER It's on again, the Great Ride for Cancer. Last year the gals on wheels (and reasonable facsimilies) added over $1,500 to the coffers of the Cancer Society. This year's bike-a-thon is slated for Sunday April 30 at 1:00 p.m. It will follow the same route as '71, leaving Exeter's North End and proceeding along High- way 83 to Dashwood and back again (15 miles).

Cancer Can Be Beaten! + + + Way To Go, There, Hawks./ Huron medical secretaries meet Huron County Medical secretaries met at Zurich, April 5, with Mrs. Donna Fisher, president, opening the meeting.

Many of the members plan to attend a convention for medical secretaries being held in Toronto in May.
