STRESSED The importance of the free X-ray survey to each Wingham citizen which -begins here at the Town Hall, on May :26th., conducted by the local Christ- mas Seal Committee, is stressed by local physicians. Tuberculosis is one of the most cur- able of diseases, if it is not too far ad- vanced when discovered and if prompt treatment is given. Prevention of the disease means the also of X 2ray. Its its early stages tub- .erettlosis does not produce symptoms. An affected person is usually not con- scious of being And it is only when the disease has progressed that the person becomes aware of some- thing amiss and consults his physician. Until mobile clinic equipment of the type coming to Wingham was avail- „able, chest clinics confined their ser- vices to persons known to have tub- erculosis, and those with whom they .associated. As a result only one in dive persons suffering from the disease 'was discovered in its early stages, Mass surveys of apparaeently healthy persons have discovered more than twice the number of such cases. Once the X-ray has demonstrated tuberculosis, proper treatment can be started at a sanatorittm, and just as itti- portant the affected person can be ee- /staved from the company of those who might get the disease from him. Mass X-ray surveys of 150,000 men and women in industrial plants in Ont. ario during the war years had 'shoWn about 2 in every 1,000 individuals ex- ambled to have active tuberculosis re- quiring treatment, These examine- tioes had also been valuable in utseovs .tiring other chest conditions, Two reasons why local residents should make appointments for their Xsrays. First, because it is good to know ores chest is healthy, and sec, ;Old, the discovery of the disease itt 4t8: early stages Means complete re- covery if corkect treatment is begun at Once, In its extensive fight to stamp out tuberetitosis, the Province of Ontario is spending AS00,000 each year, Tub- treulosia is an eermanie problem as Well as a human profit -du, he pointed Out, for the cost of treating a patient is approximately 0,000, the; ease 'a wage earners an edditional expeedfs turd of $2,560, is requited to support the farellY The game on Thursday, May 8th., concluded the regular schedule of gam- ses for the season, Of those who parti- cipated in 60% or more of the 30 gam- .es played, standing for the season is as ollows:— Ladies a.

Who has been appointed Agricultur- al Representative for Huron County, effective May 1, 1947, according to an announcement matte by J. A. Garner, Director of Extension, Ontario Dept. of Agriculture. He has been acting Representative since April 29, 1946, having succeeded F. K. B. Stewart, now with the Economics Department, O.A.C., IGuelph. Born on a large dairy farm in Dur- ham County, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. D. Brown. Mr. Brown attended Orono Continuation 'School and Bowmanville High School and graduated from the Ontario Agricultural College, Guelph, in 1942. He entered the service of the Agricultural Representatives' Branch, in May, 1942, as assistant in the coun- ties of 'Middlesex and Grey, In October 1942, he commenced training with the R.C,A.F., receiving his "wings" as a navigator in March, 1944.

This appeal immediately send all our minds back to those momentous clays when Britain stood between us and disaster, We remember how the people of Britain responded to the challenge of Churchill and endured blood, sweat, toil and tears to keep Liberty safe, How they watched while their homes were blasted and their commerce was brought to a standstill. How they survived the initial shock of war and grimly set themselies to the task of giving leadership to a world threatened by the worst outrage of his- tory. And then we think of post war con- ditions there. Those same brave people working against almost insuper- able odds to re-establish themselves to dig themselves out of their ruin of bus- iness and buildings and 'blasted hopes. And finally as if their cup of woes should be filled full, the worst winter in a hundred years, snow and floods, disrupted communications, unforsee- able shortages and continued restric- tions. The flood has left behind in thS homes of the people an urgent need— a need to which all of us living in this realm of abundance should respond wholeheartidly. Clothing, .shoes and bedding of all tykes in good serviceable condition and clean; is urgently needed. In making up your bundle be thoughtful, slip in a package of needles or other means of repair:• Whether new or used, make the gift good in our sense of the word. Foods of all kinds in non-perishable containers that will stand travel and handling, no glass containers, the people of Britain have never acquir- ed a taste for corn; but any canned meats, vegetables, soups, jams, etc., dried fruits, packed -milk and eggS, tea, cheese, white flour. They haven't seen white flour since before the war. Candy and sugar, however small the quantity. Remember, they will not be able to sweeten anything, Cash donations spay be left at either of the local bank:'` Parcels are arriving at the Council Chambers and are being packed by Mr. Alex. Coutts. The local Committee ex- pects that many packets of food and clothing will be received before the end of the week. To make sure that all supplies available will be gather- ed in, it is being arranged that trucks will make the rounds of every street on Monday, May 19th, after supper. Have your parcels at the curb, securely bound. Remember, the need in Eng- land is very acute—give generously.
