IN LARGE URBAN AREAS salt wafted upwards by traffic
and winds coats insulators on hydro lines and can cause
power failures. Using insulator washing trucks equip-
ped with high pressure hoses, Hydro workmen attack'
the grime with jets of water. The high pressure jet breaks
up into a non-conducting spray enabling crews to carry
out insulator washing in safety without shutting off the
power. Other types of air pollution take over from the
salt in the spring making washing a year round job.—'

Early spring is the danger
period for distemper - thathigh-
ly contagious disease that kills
an estimated 25,000 dogs in
Canada each year.
But there's a brighter side.
First, dogs can be immunized
against distemper through vac-
cination and more and snore dog
owners are taking this course --
particularly with young pups.
They are particularly suscepti-
ble to distemper shortly after
leaving their mother.
Vaccines have also improv-
ed. "Today we use live vac-
cines that have been clinically
proven to be 995s effective,"
says Dr. Roderick Davies, presi-
dent of the Academy of Veter-
inary Medicine. Dr. Davies
added: "With such vaccines a
dog builds up the required re-
sistance to distemper. Pups
should receive their first in-
jection at approximately nine
weeks of age and the second
vaccination at 12 weeks. All
dogs should have a booster shot
each year."
Damp weather and marked
changes in temperature are
most conducive to the spread of
any virus -- particularly dis-
temper. More dogs succumb to
distemper during early spring
and late fall titan during all the
'.Asissr seasons combined.

for the remainder of the year.
There were six hospital and 15
home visits recorded.
The worship service was
conducted by Mrs. Herson Ir-
win, Mrs. Ross Robinson and
Mrs. May Rinn. A hymn was
sung followed by a meditation
on Lent and "The Forty Days of
Lent" by Mrs. Irwin, who also
offered prayer.
Mrs. Rinn read Scripture and
Mrs. Ross Robinson read the
study on Trinidad. Mrs. Jack-
som played two records in Trin-
idadian of "The Lord's Prayer"
and "Josiah led the Battle of
Jericho".
The Bible study on, "What is
the real meaning of a mission-
ary?" was taken by Mrs. Arthur
Jackson. She read from Ephes-
ians 4 and 7, verses 11 to 16
and these passages were the
basis for the discussion. Ques-
tions were asked on the pass-
ages. Mrs. Anderson said the
benediction.
fits and foaming at the mouth,
the disease is hardly ever treat-
ed successfully.
"Distemper in its secondary
or terminal stage," added Dr.
Davies, "is usually always fa-
tal. Even if we are successful
in treating the dog, we cannot
prevent such after effects as
permanent paralysis, loss of
natural reflexes and stupidity."
Since the virus is air borne,
distemper is one of the most
contagious of all canine dis-
eases. It can be transmitted
from dog to dog or picked up
from surroundings where the
disease has been present. At
one time veterinarians advised
dog owners to wait at least six
months after the death of their
dog before letting another oc-
cupy the same quarters. Now,
thanks to modern disinfecting
products, the time span has
been reduced to 30 days.
BEST TREATMENT
FOR A COLD
When a cold threatens, the
best treatment is to get plenty
of rest, and drink lots of water,
milk and fruit juices. It is wise
to stay indoors and keep out of
drafts.
Mouth and Foot
Painting Artists
Many visitors from Hamilton
and surrounding communities
saw what may be the most un-
usual exhibition of paintings
when recently shown at the
Hamilton Jewish Community
Centre.
The art show consisted of
well over 100 original paintings
created by 50 different artists
from many countries, including
Canada. All these paintings
have been painted by mouth or
foot as the artists are deprived
of the use of their hands through
accident, sickness or by birth.
The handicapped painter
Myron Angus of Toronto was
present during most of the ex-
hibition to chat with visitors
and give demonstrations of his
rare skill as a mouth-painter.
All the works shown were by
memberS of the international
Association of Mouth and Foot-
painting Artists which also ar-
ranges for the world-wide dis-
tribution of greeting cards re-
produced from such originals.
Mayor Victor K. Copps of
Hamilton, who presided over
the opening ceremonies paid
tribute to the artists and their
fine work and said: "These peo-
ple make their living from the
sale of reproductions. It is an
honest business and not a char-
ity organization. I urge you all
to buy their greeting cards."
The Ilamilton exhibition is
one of several planned for 1966.
Other mouth and foot paintings
were first shown in Canada last
October at Toronto's Casa Lo-
ma, an event that attracted
coast to coast attention.
