The glass snake is not a
snake at all; it's a lizard with-
out legs. It gets its name front
its brittle and fragile tail,
which breaks off when touched.
A popular legend has zt that the
glass snake is able to stick its
broken tail back together, but
this is not so.

GODERICH--The county rate
for 1964 will be as at present,
six mills for general purposes
and eight for highways, Clerk-,
Treasurer John G. Berry fore
east in his report on Tuesday.
He pointed out that this depends
upon council carrying out its
usual road program.
As of Sept. 30 there was a
surplus in general account of
$69, 000 and $14, 028 in high-
way account. The year-end
surplus will be greater than ex-
pected, Mr. Berry said, partly
due to direct payment of child
welfare money to the county
instead of to local municipali-
ties, and substantial sums from
outside municipalities payable
to the Children's Aid. Cost of
administration of justice. is
down, "as evidently the people
in this area seem to be very
law-abiding."
The revised budget for this
year indicates $571,732 rev-
enue and $514,505 expenditure,
No further allowance has been
made for printing the county
history, but nine or ten chap-
ters have been typed, and corm
pletion next year is likely,
The Hospital reserve fund
has $87,000 in investments,
and an additional $50, 000 will
be deposited early next month.
"The only obligation we
have at the moment," said Mr,
Berry, "is to the Seaforth Hos-
pital, and since they have not

short wedding trip they started
farming on the 1st line ofMor-
ris Township near Wingham.

Mr. and Mrs. Thos. Abram,
and Mrs. Abram, formerly Fran-
ces Carrie Schnock, was a
daughter of the late Mr. and

ed that the worst storm on the
Great Lakes, which wrecked 24
ships and drowned 300 seamen

less than 2 weeks all the snow
was gone and nice weather fol-

FORMERLY CALLED
CREEPING PARALYSIS
Muscular dystrophy, known
formerly as "creeping paraly-
sis", is a so far incurable af-
fliction that paralyses the vol-
untary muscles of the human
body. It can affect anyone,
but is especially serious where
children are victims, in which
cases it is almost invariably
fatal.
About 20, 000 Canadians in
all walks of life are associated
under the banner of MDAC.
They raise money for medical
research and attempt to make
life more comfortable for those
already stricken by MD.
The organization invests al"
most $400, 000 annually in
medical research; its research
program is second in size only
to those of the heart and cancer
associations. The problem
medical scientists face is dif-
ficult, but already their inves-
tigations have increased our
understanding of muscular dys-
trophy and have made signifi-
cant contributions to the data
of basic medical research.
Humility leads to strength
and not to weakness. — John J.
