night after a Sixer Council
meeting. There were 27 boys
and three leaders in attendani'e.

gle for the first tinir . Good
work, Tom!
The boys were introduced to
a new game and after a few ex-
citing rounds they settled down
to a period of knot -tying.
Those working on their First
Star learned and practised the
sheet bend and reef knot, while
the boys working on their sec-
ond Star knots did the clove
hitch and the bowline.
Baloo showed the pack a
bird feeder that Ron Orien had
made. This passed one of his
Second Star tests and got him
a badge.

PACK "B" CI'BS
Pack B, First Wingham Cubs
held its weekly meeting at the
Scout House on Thursday even-
ing with 28 Cubs in attendance.
We are in the process of getting
organized in Pack B following
the retirement of Mrs. Bob Aha-
ra, but will strive to maintain
the high standard of performance
set by our former Cub Mistress.
Akela was assisted by ACM
Donald Rinroul, on loan to us
from Pack A, ACM Jim Camp-
bell and ACM James Miller,
whom we welcome back after
a brief absence.
In the past two weeks Pack
B has undergone a change in
setup, in that six of our 37 Cubs
were transferred to Pack A. The
move was thought wise in order
to more evenly distribute the
boys among the available lead-
ers in the two packs. We all
send (from Pack B) ourbest to
these boys and wish them every
success.
Following the Grand howl
led by the White Six, the ACM's
conducted an inspection. Top
points were awarded to the ever-
ready
verready Blue Six, with three other
Sixes tying for second place.
After a short game the Pack
divided into two groups, one to
work on Second Star semaphore
under the ACM's and the new
chums to work with Akela on
First Star work,knotsandsomer-

A pleasant feature of the
closing ceremony was the pro-

County Children's
Aid Society
Against Grouping
GODFRICH-The directors of
Huron Children's Aid Society
are not impressed by the recom-
mendations of Hon. Louis Ce-
cile's advisory committee on
child welfare, according to a
report placed before county
council by the secretary, John
G. Berry. In pa rticular, they
do not approve a proposal to
amalgamate societies under a
regional welfare authority. It
is proposed by the advisory
committee that the number of
C.A.S. jurisdictions be reduc-
ed, and the services of Child-
ren's Aid Societies "may" be
purchased.
As to representation on such
regional boards, the Huron
board comments: "We are com-
pletely satisfied with our rela-
tionship with county council,
and feel that enlarging the area
and reducing our representation
of county councillors would not
be in the best interests of our
children or our community."
The advisory committee
spent two years studying the
child welfare field, underchair
manship of Charles J. Foster,
Toronto. To this committee the
Huron board suggests "that they
send representatives to visit
this county and learn how a
Society can work in close liai-
son with a county council."
In the advisory committee's
recently published report, two
examples of proposed grouping
have Grey, Bruce, Huron and
Perth associated. Another groups•
Huron, Bruce and Perth, with
headquarters at Wingham.
The director's report showed
that all phases of the Society's
work increased last year. Court
hearings, for example, num-
bered 150. Miss McGowan ex-
pressed gratitude to foster fam-
ilies, and said: "We can use
more adoption homes, especial-
ly Roman Catholic."
She announced the annual
meeting of the C.A.S. Februa-
ry 10, to be preceded by a din-
ner in Knox Church hall, God-
erich at 6:30 to honor the fos-
ter parents, an idea originated
by the late Wm. Jewett, form-
er president.
THREE TYPES
Ontario hydro operates three
types of generating stations.
Hydro -electric stations use fall-
ing water to generate electri-
city. Coal -burning power sta-
tions use steam to rotate a tur-
bine, which, in turn, drives an
electric generator. In a nu-
clear -electric plant, heat from
a nuclear reactor, instead of a
furnace, products the steam to
drive the turbine.

Huron Has 1th
Polio -Free Year
( ODI.RICH-"Thanks to Salk
vaccine," 1JO4 was the seventh
consecutive polio -free year for
Huron, Dr. R. M. Aldis, MOH,
reported to county council at.
the January session. It is hoped
that the health unit may soon
be able to add the new Sabin
(oral -type) vaccine to its arma-
ment against poliomyelitis.
"Last year," the report stat-
ed, "marked an increase in the
incidence of hepatitis here,
with 47 eases reported as
against 12 in 1963. There was
one death from this cause in
1964. The situation was the
reverse of the national exper-
ience, which showed hepatitis
on the decline."
"Now endemic in the county,
animal rabies has been reported
at rates varying from 33 to 125
cases per year for the preceding
six years. Last year was the low-
est on record, with 33 cases as
against 68 in 1963. Only 28 ex-
posed humans required the 14 -
day vaccine treatment, compar-
ed with 74 in 1962."
A breakdown of the statistics
regarding animals found to be
rabid showed 1964 as "the year
of the skunk." These numbered
12, foxes nine, swine eight,
steers three, and one dog.
The numbers checked at
last summer's county -wide TB
survey showed a slight decline
from 1960, at 23,337. At the
five monthly chest clinics, 134
residents who have various in-
active forms of tuberculosis
are followed regularly. In add-
ition, these clinics receive pa-
tients referred by the family
physician for special examina-
tion. This free service was
given 812 last year.
"For certain large sewage
disposal problems," the report
said, "the stabilization pond or
lagoon has been adopted here
with success, the latest being
at two central public schools.
(Howick and Usborne).
"The unit's audiometric
screening program is helping to
make teachers and nurses more
aware of hearing problems and
the importance of early treat-
ment."

luk for further information.

First Armed
Forces' Mass
In English
CLINTON-By special per-
mission of the military bishop
the Catholic chaplain at RCAF
Clinton was allowed to have a
mass in English offered in the
station chapel on Wednesday,
January 27. Rev. Stan McGuire,
parish priest of Clinton offered
the mass assisted by Rev. J.P.
Davignon, Rev. V. Villeneuve
and Rev. Richard Bussey, sta-
tion chaplain.
This mass was the first in
English offered at any military
base in Canada or overseas. It
precedes the general permission
which will extend to all churches
in Canada beginning March 7.
In keeping with the liturgi-
cal reforms authorized by the
Vatican Council, the mass
altar now faces the people. Fa-
thur Bussey reports a very favor-
able reaction on the part of the
people since the mass has been
offered facing the congregation.
The people are more attentive
because they have a more inti-
mate view of the action of the
mass.
A UNIFORMITY IN
TRAINING PROBLEMS
Most parents think their
child training problems are
unique, but there is a surprising
uniformity about the different
age groups. A series of pam-
phlets dealing with these sub-
jects has been written by author
itics in the field of child health
and behaviour and are available
from your local department of
health, without charge.
MINOR HOCKEY NIGHT last Saturday saw some tense
moments for the players and this is reflected in the faces
on the line on the bench during the Wingham-Seaforth
game which the locals won 4-3. Coach Murray Stainton
is in the right foreground.

Letters to the Editor
Box 390,
Editor,
Wingham Advance -Times.
Dear Sir:
I am moved to write a few
lines of comment on the appear-
ance of Mrs. (Rev. )McMillan
onFront Page Challenge at
London, Ont.
First, I have an objection to
Gordon Sinclair's questions. He
seemed determined to show
that if there was a God He had
Allah as His Prophet as well as
Jesus. He should have more re-
spect for the tragic loss of Mr.
McMillan than to propose.cri-
tical questions. He appears to
have no respect for anything or
anybody. Of course we can find
God in many ways, but Mrs.
McMillan was interested solely
in Jesus as Son of God.
I was surprised at her calm-
ness and poise. Perhaps a little
emotion was to be expected
and would have been appreciat-
ed. I have great respect for all
the missionaries who stood the
test of faith without fear.
Mr. Sinclair's effort to in-
duce Mrs. McMillan to say that
she hated the rebels and their
cruelty was again offensive. As
the Pharisees sought to embar-
rass Jesus, so he tried to "get
something" on any Christian.
To his mind all religious faith
and devotion is a farce. He ap-
parently does not believe in
loving one's enemies or forgive-
ness. He seems to avoid crosses
in preference for money -bags.
