Dear editor
The .lune 8 front page
of the Toronto Star fea-
tared. the 22.004. cy. clists
who took part. in the "Ride
for Heart" fund-raiser for
the Heart 'and Stroke
Foundation. The photo
;showed hundreds of aduk.
cyclists all -appearing to be
wearing helmets except
for ode person. Most hel-
mets, also appeared to be
worn properly to protect
' the fore head.
It is good to see adults
protecting themselves and
being, good role models
for.children. A parent who
insists that his or her child
wears a helmet.properly is
saying "Your head is pre -
dens too."
''Congra'ulations to
