When the alarm goes off at 7:00 Dorothy Sinclair, like millions of other Canadians, gets up and gets ready for work, "Dorothy is blind but that does not stop her from being well groomed and keeping up with today's fashions. -She is 'one ef the hundreds of blind women who has taken training in personal management and is putting the skills she learned to use," Mrs. J. T. Patterson, national president of The Canadian Council of the Blind said in a White Cane Week interview. "Knowing how to apply makeup, how to look after hair, how to select clothes and how to get along socially with others is just as important to blind women as it is to sighted women." Mrs. Patterson explained that personal management is taught at The Canadian National Institute for the Blind to young blind women facing the handicap for the first time. An important area of personal management is helping each woman find out what personality type she is, how she comes across to others and what opinions she has of herself, "This helps in deciding what materials, colors, and clothing styles suit her," Mrs. Patterson pointed out. "Books and charts are available in Braille to give her certain guidelines to follow. But the help of a sighted friend or a volunteer will always be an essential part of her success." Some lessons include trips to clothing stores. The women are encouraged to buy clothes that they can add to, something basic, rather than something that is out of style in a few months White Cane Week will be ob- served February 3-9 a time to salute blind women every where for their personal achievements and to offer friendly assistance when the chance comes your way. • CARPETS • DRAPERIES • CUSHION FLOR STEAM CLEANING A Specialty ASK FOR QUOTE Huron Carpet & Draperies EXETER 235-1451 Highway 83 West Behind Acme Sign Bible Society's Key '73 aim fulfilled, 'Good News' in homes "Without the dedicated assistance and prayers of our friends, it could not have been done," stated the area secretary, Rev.

It would warm and sincere words of one have been impossible at first camper praising the March of glance to guess which are the handicapped and which are the volunteers. This was what the camps were striving for and achieving it was mainly due to a great team of volunteers. The summer camps were a tremendous success. Much was learned and there were many snags, but a need was satisfied, a need that has been neglected and will only grow in the future. The Ability Fund has placed the expansion of the camping experience in high priority for the Ability Fund provides camps coming year. But a camp cannot run on hope and good will alone. It takes hard work and sufficient funds. In January's March of Dimes, Ability Fund campaign, give generously when the volunteer calls. Make summer camps another big step towards giving the disabled the op- portunity to realize their fullest potential vocationally, recreationally and socially, The Ability Fund canvass will be held in Exter, Monday January 28 with Dorothy Pfaff leading the Marching Mothers. Anyone wishing to assist in the canvass should call Mrs. Pfaff at 235-2013.

MISSES Pull-On Styles ▪ Reg. to 8,95 4" distributed by the Canadian. Bible Society in Western Ontario. Youth and adults alike joined in handing to friends, neighbours and strangers the Word of God, confident that it was a meaningful exercise. Banging from free leaflets to Bibles and Testaments which were purchased, this wide distribution program was en- couraged by the evangelism emphasis of the Key '73 project undertaken by many area congregations.

This represents the largest sales, as well as free grants of Scriptures, the Society has ever achieved. Hand in hand with the widest distribution, the contributions to the Society's world-wide program of translation, production and distribution of the Word of God, reached a record peak of $132,300.00 in Western Ontario. This represents a 26 percent increase over the donations given in 1972. The enthusiastic efforts of many hundreds of volunteers in cities, towns and rural areas have made this possible.

MEN'S Leather Sno-Boots Reg. to 19.95 8" Dimes, Ability Fund's first an- nual summer camp for the disabled. This pilot project, which in the planning stages seemed only a dream, was one 'of this year's major successes. The Ability Fund made sum- mer a whole new experience for 126 disabled adults. The aim of the four live-in camps was to provide a recreational and fun holiday with a free and easy atmosphere. In an unstructured program of, activities such as swimming, arts and crafts, and archery, the campers made new friends, shared experiences and grew in social stature and self confidence. Evenings at the camps were a bit more organized but no one was made to feel he had to par- ticipate. However, everyone went to pub nights, few people missed out on the wheelchair dances. Mixing ages and disabilities made each camp special with a relaxed atmosphere you could feel. Arriving at one camp, you would have found a bunch of empty wheelchairs on the path, and sprawled over the grassy OGiVr :Cs eeed The Times-Advocate would like to extend bir- thday greetings and best wishes to those members of the Over 80 Club celebrating birthdays this week or in the near future.
