PALEr$ WEEKLY. COMMENTS
Trip to Oktoberfest
Richelle Bothe is a
Physiotherapist with The
Canadian Arthritis and
Rheumatism Society, whose
London Area covers nine coun-
ties, two of which are Middlesex
and Huron,
This young therapist ad-
ministers therapy under the
direction of a London
Rhetimatologist.
The stereotyped, sterile-looking
medical-career girl seems to
have disappeared, Richelle is a
casual, pleasant and intelligent
young woman, dressed in a
sleeveless blue minitunic. A pin
on her tunic bears the insignia of
The Canadian Arthritis and
Rheumatism Society and shows a
blue bird in flight, on a white
background,
"When the weather turns
cool," explains Richelle, in her
slightly 'British' accent, "we do
wear a long-sleeved, white
sweater and long pants under the
tunic." The co-ordinated uniform
is well-designed, practical and
washable.
"Let's find a door where this
affair will fit," suggests Richelle,
as she pulls from the box what
looks like hangman's equipment.
Richelle explains that this is a
head halter for cervical traction,
for home use.
Once it is buckled into position,
it's next to impossible for the
patient to speak normally.
Richelle stands quietly while I
sit in this position for six or seven
minutes. She's looking out the
open kitchen door.
"Tell me," she asks thought-
fully. "Does the cob of corn that
one eats, grow directly out of the
top of those stalks?"
It was impossible to laugh, so
through clenched teeth I asked
Richelle where she comes from.
"Actually I was raised on a
farm in Australia. Dad owns 5,000
acres, though that's not really a
great deal of land for a farm
there. Around our district wheat
and sheep are all one sees for
miles around."
A few days later, Caroline
Frost, senior therapist at the
society in London, gave me
permission to go with Richelle to
visit a couple of patients who
require home therapy.
"Why did you leave your
family in Australia to come to
Canada, Richelle?" I inquired.
"A physiotherapist can get a
job easily anywhere in the
world," she explained. "One'
doesn't have to speak the
patient's language in order to
help him."
"I took my physio training in
Perth (Australia) at the West
Australian Institute of
Technology. After graduation, I
shared an apartment with a
Canadian girl. When my friend
returned to Canada, I decided to
save my money and head for
Canada to look her up, and to see
your country at the same time."
We arrived in Parkhill to find
Mrs. Irene Fraser applying heat
to her left knee by means of an
electric heating pad. The mor-
ning air was damp and cool and
Mrs. Fraser wondered if the
dampness was the reason she felt
more pain than usual.
Once the heating pad was
removed from the patient's knee,
the knee was rested over a 'quad'
board, and a series of exercises
began. Treatment and moral
support provided by Richelle
comforted Mrs. Fraser.
Back on the highway again, I
ask Richelle, "Have you met any
other Australians since you've
been in this area?"
"There are a few Australian
therapists working in London at
present. There's an Australian
Club operating in Toronto, but I
don't get there too often. For-
tunately, I'm extremely fond of
reading, and also I live with a
warm, friendly family, so time
doesn't drag for me."
Richelle's next patient, Chris
Detta, a victim of Juvenile
Rheumatoid Arthritis. He attends
first grade at Manor Park School,
London. Junior Rheumatoid
Arthritis can appear in children
up to about the age of seventeen
years, and then, hopefully, may
disappear.
Chris' principal and teachers
are understanding and co-
operative and Richelle is allowed
to treat Chris at his home on the
noon lunch hour, He also follows
an exercise program which in-
cludes hydrotherapy at West-
minster Hospital every Friday.
Arthritis is one of the world's
oldest known diseases, yet many
facts remain a medical mystery,
Richelle explained that the
Society is endeavouring to
educate governments, hospitals
and people in the health
profession, to encourage them to
play a greater part in the control
of this painful, and often crip-
pling disease.
"Won't you change your mind
and stay in Canada after
January, 1973?" I ask Richelle.
"No. I'm going for sure then.
Australians are noted for their
wandering spirit, don't you
know?" she laughs.
Richelle slows the car down as
we pull up to a red traffic light.
She mutters to the 'mate' ahead
of her to put his 'flickers' on.
"Richelle, you might meet
someone in England who asks
you to marry him and stay
there, Would you do it?" I ask.
"Really, I don't know just what
I'd say or do, It would depend
RICHELLE BOTHE
upon so many things. My plans
now are to return to Australia,
and my family, eventually. We
are a close-knit family, as I've
told you."
Richelle went on to say, "I'll
likely go back home, meet an
Australian, marry him and settle
down. But before that time, I'm
sure there's a job waiting for me
somewhere in England, and there
are new friends to meet! Just
three months more, and I'm off
again!"
My day with Richelle has been
an exhausting one for me.
Emotionally and physically I feel
drained. I glance sideways at
Richelle, but her gaze is straight
ahead, her hands are firm on the
wheel. She knows where she's
going and when.
It takes a special kind of girl to
follow the career of a
physiotherapist with such
patience, cheerfulness and
dedication.

How to cook a brand-new,
clean, store-bought turkey for
Thanksgiving dinner is no
problem to most of us. It's what
to do afterward with that beat-up
looking carcass that's too good to
throw to the hounds!
When I was a child, turkeys
came from the butcher-shop,
complete with head, feet and
pope's nose...of yes, and all those
dreadful innards that Mother
saved as 'delicacies' for herself,
Area woman
passes away
Mrs. Percy Vahey, Lucan, the
former Doris Margaret
Chisholm, died in St. Joseph's
Hospital, London, September 27,
1972 in her 81st year.
She is survived by her husband
and daughters Mrs. Svend
(Marna) Mouritzen, London
township and Andrea Vahey at
home.
She is also survived by a sister,
Constance Chisholm, London and
three grandchildren.
A private funeral service was
held September 29, 1972 from the
C. Haskett and Son Funeral
Home, Lucan, with Rev. W. C.
Tupling of Lucan United Church
officiating. Interment was in St.
James Cemetery, Clandeboye.
Pallbearers were Peter
Chisholm, Andrew Chisholm,
Sam Mouretzen, Steve Ivaseczko,
Bob Herlick and Bill Smith,'
Final pony races,
fall to weather
The last race of the season for
the Huron County Trotting Pony
Club was cancelled due to a wet
track.
The fall beef draw was held and
the winners were: Leona Bedard,
Seaforth, half a beef; Mrs. J.
Durnin, Goderich, a turkey; Bob
Jeffery, Goderich, a ham.
A banquet and dance will be
held November 4 at the Exeter
Legion to round off the year.
Mrs. Catherine Fischer spent
the weekend with her son and
family, Mr. & Mrs. Ray Fischer,
London.
Mr. & Mrs. Cliff Abbott were
among those who attended, Mr. &
Mrs. Gordon Davis' 45th wedding
anniversary in London Sunday.
Shiela Prince and Mr. Ted
Kostecki, London were Sunday
guests of Mr. & Mrs. Harold
Prince after the latter's return
from Moscow.
Mrs. Clara Abbott, a former
Alice Street resident is very sick
in St, Joseph's Hospital, London.
Mrs, Mary McCarthy & Mrs.
Lillian Kelly called on Mr. & Mrs.
Harold Prince Sunday.
Mr. & Mrs. T. Emery Jr. were
because no one else in the family
would eat them !
Care should be taken to remove
any stuffing from the body and
neck cavities after the big feast of
turkey. Refrigerate along with
the meat stripped from the bones.
Everything should be covered,
then used within 3 or 4 days. To
store leftovers in a freezer, check
your freezer chart.
In the days of large families
and little money, every housewife
worth her salt knew that the
carcass was put under the meat
and feathers just to be used later
for soup. It's a good idea to try
the following recipe, after you're
eaten all the gorgeous, tender
meat available.
Turkey soup
Place the turkey carcass in a
large kettle, along with any
leftover stuffing and gravy. Use a
kettle that will hold about 8 cups
of water. Now add: Any celery,
plus tops, (within reason of
course)
1 onion, quartered
1 carrot, sliced
2 tablespoons salt (watch it!)
1 2 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon thyme
1 bay leaf
Cover.Bring to a boil and
simmer gently for two hours at
least. This must ..be forced
through a fine sieve. Taste the
strained liquor, Add more salt
and pepper, if necessary. Use
your imagination now. You might
add 1 4 cup of rice, or 1 cup neatly
diced potatoes, or some macaroni
pieces. Cook food which has been
added, the required time. Gar-
nish with chopped parsley, if
available, or make croutons and'
sprinkle on top. Serve the soup
good and hot,
Simple turkey casserole
In a greased casserole, place
thick layer of the leftover stufi'
fing. Over it place pieces of
turkey. Cover the meat with,
turkey skin, and moisten with `
stock or water. Bake in a'
moderate oven (350 degree) for
about 25 minutes, Serve with very
hot turkey gravy.
Turkey-vegetable casserole
Butter a casserole. Look for
any vegetables left in the frig
from Thanksgiving dinner. (I
Saturday guests of Mr. & Mrs.
Donald Woods, London,
Brialin Kennels sent 2
Keeshonden to the Sarnia Kennel
show. Brialin's Johanna won
winners female for another
Championship point. Ch.
Alejandro's Milanka won Best of
Breed, and Best Canadian bred in
breed.
Mrs. Doris Butler, Marlene
Butler and Mrs. Marion
Cockrane, were hostesses for a
miscellaneous shower for Lynda
Nicklom London, daughter of Mr.
& Mrs. J. A. Nicklom, Guests
were from Dashwood,
Mississauga, Orangeville,
London and Lucan,
don't care to use turnip or
eggplant here, but you might),Try
green beans 'or carrots, .broccoli
or spinach. Sprinkle a little lemon
juice over the vegetables with a
light touch. Cover with bits of
turkey meat. Now pour a can or
two (depending on the amount of
turkey and vegetables you have
scraped together) of undiluted
hot chicken, mushroom or celery
soup over the whole affair, Bake
in 350 degree oven 20 minutes or
until bubbly.
Locals win
drag races
Snowmobile grass races at
Hully Gully, Varna were held
Sunday. Two Lucanites were
fortunate to be in the running.
Pat Ryan won fourth with a
300C.C. in a class of 15. He also
won fourth with a 440 in a class of
13.
A young Lucan housewife, Mrs.
John MacDonald who participa ted
in the powderpuff races won
second in a 300 and first in a 440.
This seems to be a fast and
popular sport without snow.
Bingo enjoyed
by Sunshiners
The Sunshine Club met at the
Masonic Hall Thursday with Mrs.
II, Bond Sr. presiding. Fourteen
members were present to enjoy
bingo with Mrs. T. Emery Sr. as
convener.
Lunch followed the business
meeting provided by Mr. C.
Rogers and Mrs. T. Hodgins.
United Church
The worship service at Lucan
United Church was taken by Rev.
C. Tupling. It was worldwide
communion Sunday.
Christians all over the world, in
many denominations, sat down
together around the table of the
Lord to demonstrate unity, in
spite of mistrust , misun-
derstanding, and even hate.
Pentecostal Church
On Saturday night the singing
group of Terry Whitfield, and the
Viscounts gave a program of
sacred music, with the young
people's group from the church,
called God's Company. The
program was well presented, and
the good music was enjoyed by
all.
The Viscounts were the feature
of both Sunday services, bringing
out the gospel message in song.
Rev. E. Thornton opened both
services, then turned the service
to the Viscounts,
On Friday evening Mrs. Ruth
Thornton is having a group of
Pioneer Girls at her home, This
group is for girls aged 8 to 12.
Monday the men of the church
and any others who wish, gather
for prayer in the church. On
Tuesday night the young people
meet at the church for Bible
study, which they are enjoying
very much.

another way Branch 540 shows its

things in life. Regret the short
notice folks, on checking'with the
Comrades at Waterloo this was
the date they suggested as being
the one they could best ac-
commodate us,
Something new has been added
to Branch 540 and possibly the
first in the area — a degree team
made up of Legion Members of
Branch 540 and vicinity visited
the Temple Masonic Lodge in the
city of London last week and put
Comrade Pat Crudge through his
paces. I was very much im-
pressed by the excellence of the
Comrades performance —
Congratulations, Comrades —
keep up the'good work.
It has just come to our attention
that an elderly widow is very
much in need of a refrigerator, it
doesn't matter what it looks like
as long as it is in working con-
dition and will look after her
needs for a few months. If you
have one you are willing to
donate — please call the Legion
Rail at 227-4751 and we will be
pleased to pick it up and make
delivery.
Good news for our young
hockey enthusiasts, the ice is
expected to he in the local rink by
October 7 and minor hockey
practices will commence:just as
soon as ice time can be obtained.
Might be a good idea fellows to
get those hockey bags out of
storage and check your equip-
ment so that you will be ready to
go at the starting whistle, Have a
good season lads and watch this
column for further an-
nouncements, O'K!
The entire membership of
Branch 540 extend to our charter
president Comrade Percy Vahey
and family our deepest sympathy
in the loss of his life's companion.
We hope you will receive comfort
in the knowledge you are hi our
