ELLIOTT GODERICH-Huron County will pay authorized nursing homes $6 a day for indigent pa- tients, effective Oct. 1. Hi- therto the rate has been 54.50, but operators have claimed that this amount is inadequate. Council at Wednesday's session adopted a report of its finances and executive committee rec- ommending amendment of By- law 34 accordingly. In earlier discussions it has been contended that many chronic patients in generalhos- pitais could be given all the care they require in nursing homes. A delegation from Associat- ed Nursing Homes of Ontario, Incorporated, met with the committee July 10, and so ma- ny attended the meeting that it had to be held in the council chamber, with Reeve Milton Oesch, committee chairman, in the warden's chair. " The association is not too happy about the effective date, reported Mr. Oesch. "They wanted it retroactive to July 1." Huronview has an inmate population of 214, which super- intendent H. F. Johnston told council is about the most they have ever had. He was speak- ing on the board report, pre- sented by Chairman James Hay- ter, deputy reeve of Stephen. "Due to the number of ap- plicants still waiting to get in- toHuronview," the re rt report stated, "we have asked that all staff personnel living in, vacate their rooms no later than Sep- tember 30." "We may lose three or four staff members over the moving - out, " Mr. Johnston said. "They feel they cannot get ac- commodation. The new ac- commodation on the ground floor is practically complete. We are putting handrails in the corridors. This accommodation has 26 extra beds, and 12 of these are occupied at present. We do have three or four beds in the men's sick bay, but the bed care for women, on the top floor, is completely filled so we are getting pretty near capacity again. Applications have been slowed up since Dr. J. C. Ross took sick, and this is perhaps why they are piling up." Dr. Ross met the com- mittee at noon recess and said he hoped soon to resume duties. A woman went to a psychol- ogist to complain about her hus- band's delusion. "It's terrible, doctor. All the time he thinks he's a re- frigerator." "Well," consoled the doc- tor, "that isn't too bad. Quite harmless delusion, I'd say." "The delusion I don't mind, doctor. But when he sleeps with his mouth open, the little light keeps me awake!" Safe -Driving Week Set for December Canada's nation-wide safety carnpaign, Safe -Driving Week, will be sponsored again this year by the Canadian Highway Safety Council. The dates will be December 1 to 7 inclusive, exactly the same as for the past eight years. participation by federal, provincial and municipal police governments and safety organ- izations has been assured. Also expected to participate are clergy, physicians, women's organizations, business and in- dustry. The chief aim ofSafe- Driving Week 1964 will be to convince the motorist that he is The Other Fellow to every driver on the road. The cam- paign will also be concerned with safety for pedestrians and cyclists. How to Choose a Hampster Have you decided to buy a hamster? They certainly make most interesting and entertain- ing pets. If possible, buy a male. They are more easily tamed and live longer. Do not be per- suaded to buy a pair and keep them together, however, unless you want to breed from them. Two hamsters fight savagely. The best-known hamster is the golden variety. He has reddish -brown fur on his head and body, white under parts and feet, and a black patch un- der each ear. When young his fur is "mousey" brown. Watch for this and you won't be sold an undersized adult for a young- ster. But there are other colours in hamsters, including fawns, creams, and piebalds. The cream hamster is very popular and most attractive. He is al- so a little quieter than the gold- en hamster, which makes him a good choice for the beginner. Of course, you will want a healthy hamster. He should be plump and cobby, with glossy fur and bright eyes. Examine his ears. At five or six weeks old -- which is the best age to buy a hamster -- the insides should be covered with silky hairs. Never buy a hamster with sores or loss of fur, for either could mean skin disease. Because of his long teeth, a hamster has no difficulty in chewing through his cage. so this must be made of very hard wood. An apple -box at least 24 in. long and 12 in. wide, and 9 in. deep, with a hinged wire lid, would do. KEEP WARM A good ball of hay will keep your hamster warm and a layer of sawdust will keep the floor clean. The best diet for your pet is mixed hamster food -- you can buy it at any pet shop -- sup- plemented by a little green Stuff or apple. Be sure that he always has plenty of water and give him some milk occasion- ally.
