Financial support by citizens
Of this locality has almost double
ed the library service of the
CNIB over the last ten years. In
that decade the number of
blind library users has jumped
-Item :3d0C to lee.e.). To keep
pace with these requests, CNIB
increased the number of Braille
and recorded books.
Like the sighted, blind read-
ers enjoy a wide variety dread ,
ing from the Bible to seience
fiction, from the gourmet cook
book to hunting, and fishing. At
present 1S.1 blind people in this
district are using the CNIB
rary. If you were to visit the
library, which serves all Can-
ada from headquarters in Tor-
onto, you would not reeognize
this National Book Room as a
library. Instead of the rows of

Will have booth
at Gorrie fair
GORRIE—The Anglican
Church Women met at the home
of Mrs. Norman Wade for their
September meeting on Wednes-
day afternoon with an attend-
ance of eleven members and
two visitors.
The president, Mrs. Gordon
Underwood, presided. Theme
for the roll call was "Harvest".
The hymn "We Plough the Field
and Scatter" was sung. The .
Come Ye Apart service was us-
ed. Scripture was read by Mrs.
C. Lawrence.
It was announced that the
semi-annual meeting of Angli-
can Church Women of the Hur-
on Diocese would be held at
Goderich, October 4th at 10.3e
a.m.
Plans were made for the
booth at the Gorrie Fair on Sat-
urday, October 7th. A letter of
thanks for the shipment of new
clothing, layettes and stocking
fillers to the Indian Residential
School at Cardston, Alberta,
was read. Items from the Bul-
letin were also read.
Mrs. Violet Underwood
brought thoughts from John 15:
16, "Ye have not chosen me,
but I have chosen you and or-
dained you that ye should go
and bring forth fruit and that
your fruit should remain: that
whatsoever ye shall ask of the
Father in my name he may give
it to you."
Mrs. Nellie King read an
article on stewardship, telling
of a converted heart and a con-
verted pocketbook.
Mrs. Wm. Austin read part
of a chapter from the book "The
Ambassador of the Frozen Way",
by Bishop Stringer, telling of
the work of the late Bishop
Bompas among Indians and Eski-
!nos. Bishop Stringer followed
Bishop Bompas in the far north.

American best sellers are sent
to Toronto on rape where cop-
ies are made on electronic
equipment that produces 1'4
copies at a time,
Canadian books arc taped by
volunteers in six cities across
Canada and again sufficient
copies are made to keep pace
with reader demands. If you
continue your tour of the lib,
rary you will come to a section
of large volumes bound in dark
green covers with little adorn-
ment in print or colour. These
are the Braille books which are
read by touch, once the blind
person has mastered the forma-
tion of the dots, which make
up the Braille alphabet. The
library is also preparing text
books, both on tape and in
Braille, for 135 blind students
in higher education - the larg-
est number to date enrolled at
the university level. This ser-
vice was just beginning ten
years ago when one early mod-
el tape recorder was set aside
for the student text book ser-
vice.
Mr. Frank Madill, campaign
chairman, said "When you con-
tribute to the annual financial
appeal under way here from Oc-
tober 1st to 15th, you will share
in providing new books for your
blind neighbors. You will also
share in distributing three tons
of books across Canada every
day of the week post free by
Her Majesty's mail man." Mr.
Madill and his committee from
the Wingham Lions Club will
be conducting a letter appeal
on behalf of the CNIB in Wing-
ham and surrounding commun-
ities. Please give generously.

Mobile safety
display to be
at Teeswater
Canada's largest mobile
safety display will be a major
attraction at the Teeswater ag-
ricultural fair, September 29
and 30. The big trailer is
operated year-round by the On-
tario Department of Transport,
visiting communities through-
out the province in the inter-
ests of highway safety.
The travelling safety centre
is outfitted with modern dis-
plays, inside and out, which
emphasize the need for driving
skills that keep pace with to-
day's changes in roads, traffic,
laws and vehicles.
"Come on in and see what's
happening in this modern world
of traffic" is the invitation let-
tered on the front of the trailer.
Visitors are greeted by colour-
ful displays, with photographs,
drawings and special signs
featuring pointers, tests and
tips on road safety. Subjects
of the displays are freeway
driving, school bus laws, motor-
cycles, traffic signs, rules of
the road and driver instruction
in secondary schools.
The blue and white van has
met with enthusiastic response
at fairs and exhibitions all oVe
er Ontario.• Department of
Transport staff will be on hand
to supervise the exhibit, to
show films and distribute liters
ature and to answer visitors'
questions..
Fall is the best season tOseed
a lawn, state horticulturists with
the Ontario Department of Ag-
riculture and Food. This period
of cool nights and warm days
encourages good rooting,
Proper preparation of the bed
is a primary requisite when es-
tablishing a new lawn, The
best grade should slope gently
away from the house on all
sides. This slope should fall
two to four inches in 10 feet to
allow the surface water to run
off gradually without causing
erosion. It is also important to
eliminate small hollows and de-
pressions where water may
stand.
Good topsoil is essential for
a high quality lawn. A five to
six inch covering of good loam
topsoil with the addition of or-
ganic matter such as manure,
peat, or compost should be
adequate. An application of a
complete fertilizer such as 5-
20-20 at the rate of 30 lbs. per
1,000 square feet will produce
rapid root growth.
The final preparation of the
seedbed should start about two
weeks prior to sowing. The soil
should be worked occasionally
during this period to destroy any
weeks that have started. Roll
and rake the area to produce a
fine level bed. At seeding
time, there should be no lumps
larger than a grain of corn on
the surface.
Grass seed should be applied
at the rate of three to five
pounds per 1,000 square feet.
Seeding may be carried out by
Lad in hospital
with broken leg
WHITECHURCH—Murray Ad-
ams, son of Mr. and Mrs. Clar-
ence Adams, is a patient in
Wingham and District Hospital
with a broken leg. The injury
occurred on Saturday while the
boy was playing on the plat-
form at the Whitechurch Mill.
Murray fell from the platform
and a bag of grain fell on him.
His leg was twisted and fractur-
ed.
the use of a mechanical seeder
or by hand spreading. For large
areas, it is wise to sow half the
seed in one direction and the
other half at right angles to it.
The low fertilizer spreader on
wheels with adjustable side
openings is ideal for sowing
seed; a very even distribution
can be made close to the
ground; economical, too.
After the area has been seed-
ecl, rake the soil to a depth of
I-inch. Rake in one direction
rather than back and forth to
prevent putting the seed into
channels or ridges.
After the seed is covered,
LUXURIOUS WIDE WALE
the area should be rolled to
firm the soil around the seed
and encourage rapid, uniform
gemlination. Keep the roller
dry to avoid picking up seed.
Three separate railings are re-
quired: immediately Aftex tow-
ing, after germination, and af-
ter the first cutting. The ground
should be well watered within
i4 hours after rolling, Do not
drag hose over prepared ground.
When selecting lawn seed,
choose a variety that is suitable
to soil conditions in your area; e
check with your local nursery-
man.
