Christmas Seals from the TB Association have been com- ing our way for quite some years, When they turned up in the mail again we wondered how long they will be needed, in other words, how long will tuberculosis last? In 1964 there were 4, 541 new cases of tuberculosis re- ported in Canada. Of these 552 were boys and girls under See Pictures Of Portugal Sixteen couples were pre- sent for the meeting of St. An- drew's Couples' Club on Tues- day evening of last week. Tom Henderson gave the Scrip- ture and meditation and Mrs. Henderson gave a reading, "The Consecrated Car". Guests were Mr. and Mrs. Stanley Lyons of Blyth. They showed slides of Portugal, where their daughter is a mis- sionary. They also showed pro- ducts and handwork done by the people of the country and gave a humorous commentary with the pictures. Mr. and Mrs. Lyons were introduced by Nelson Pickell and thanked by Tom Hender- son. Gordon Sutcliffe gave the closing prayer. Mr. and Mrs. Henderson, who were in charge of the meet- ing, served lunch. The next meeting will be in January. Spain had a flourishing tex- tile industry in the 16th cen- tury. what does the .P. offer young men? JOB? CAREER? EASY? REWARDING? N0. YES. NO. YES. If you make the grade with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, you set out on a rewarding, stim- ulating, satisfying career. Your work can take you into many branches of police work, from criminal investigation to security and intelligence. You may fly a plane, sail a boat, ride a horse, lead a dog team. The R.C.M.P. does all—and more. Your work may lead you to the lonely, frozen north or to crowded big city streets. It won't be dull. It may be dangerous. Whatever it is, it will be a man's work. Think you can make the grade? Ask at your nearest R.C,M.P. office or write to: The Commissioner Royal Canadian Mounted Police Ottawa 7, Ontario ten years of age. As a result these 552 youngsters will har- bour tubercle bacilli for the rest of their lives, which for most of them will be well into the next century. This does not mean they will be infectious all their lives. Not at all. Most of them will be lucky enough to have no recurrence of their dis- ease, but they will always be under threat. The risk of break- down reakdown among those who have once had tuberculosis is at least ten times as high as among the general public. Can we not be sensible(ev- en if it is uncomfortable) and face the fact that approxim- ately 400 new cases of tubercu- losis develop monthly. There is one plain reason for this. Un- discovered infectious cases are infecting other people. If it were only older persons who were breaking down we could shrug the matter off by saying they had probably been infect- ed long, long ago and were on- ly now getting the full impact of the old infection. But by May of this year 241 children under ten had developed tuber- culosis. It is all too clear that the search for infectious cases must be intensified if we are ever to be rid of tuberculosis. At this time of year we are asked to buy Christmas Seals from our Tuberculosis Associa- tion. By all means let us buy them but let us not think that our responsibility to help con- vince the public that 400 new cases a month is far too many in a country which has a net- work of clinics where anyone can be diagnosed and where people are urged regularly to avail themselves of free diag- nostic services. Every new case of tubercu- losis represents neglect on the part of someone. The case of small children is not sadder than the case, say, of a young woman in her twenties who must leave her family to be looked after by others or a young father who has to leave support of his family to others. But the community needs to take a somewhat longer look at the case of small children be- cause it means recent infection. It also means follow-up servi- ces for 40, 50, 60 years or even longer. We need not think we can relax with TB. Wingham Electors For experience and a sincere desire to serve the Taxpayers of Winghann —VOTE— JACK BATESON FOR COUNCILLOR FOR COUNCIL VOTE ALBERT FOXTON —A WINGHAM BUSINESS MAN FOR OVER 30 YEARS. --LIFETIME RESIDENT OF WING - HAM DISTRICT. VOTE FOR The Right to Vote MARK YOUR BALLOT X "YES" TO MUNICIPAL FRANCHISE THE MUNICIPAL FRANCHISE EXTENSION ACT WAS PASSED ALMOST TEN YEARS AGO BY THE ONTARIO LEGISLATURE. Over seventy towns, villages and cities have acted on this legislation. This right to vote applies to all persons of the full age of twenty-one years who are British subjects and have resided in a municipality for at least one year. This lack of voting privileges applies to approxi- mately fifty persons in the Town of Wingham, who have no vote on council, yet in many cases support house- holds and pay the property tax. Every Canadian resident complying with the above mentioned qualifications has the right to vote for Pro- vincial Representative, Federal Representative and Liquor Plebiscites, but without Municipal Francise or Tenant status is denied the right to vote in his own home town. IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT MUNICIPAL FRAN- CHISE PRIVILEGES DO NOT INCLUDE THE RIGHT TO VOTE ON MONEY BY-LAWS. SPONSORED BY THE WINGHAM BUSINESS & PROFESSION- AL WOMEN'S CLUB VOTE FOR COUNCILLOR It has been a sincere pleasure to represent you on Town Council, The growth and development of our town are of first importance to me and I shall devote every effort to the furtherance of sound, progressive municipal government. —TED MOSZKOWSK•I. • zi .5
