Huron County
nicer unit has
a $29;000 pal
rO,r
At the recent meeting of Huron
Unit of the Canadian Cancer So-
ciety held in Seaforth, members
listened to a panel discussion on
the duties of the Planning, De-
velopment and Nominations
Committee.
Sitting in on the panel was the
Southwestern District Chairman
of that committee, Charlie Duffin
of Thorndale; John McKay, Sar-
nia, president of Southwestern;
Chester Ahrchibald, president,
and Mrs. Helen Davies,. P.D.N.
chairman of Huron Unit. A film,
produced by Ontario Division
was used to introduce the subject,
and discussion followed concern-
ing the importance of the com-
mittee and the necessity of a
knowledgeable chairman arid
vice-chairman to recruit vital,
interested and dedicated officers
for the Unit.
The importance of the commit-
tee in relation to planning and de-
velopment was also stressed. The
Service to Patients Committee
carries out widespread and very
worthwhile work, but the Edu-
cation, Commemoration Funds
and Campaign personnel are
equally important. Mr. Duffm
stated, "The roil of the society is
changing. Don't just drift, go out
and get people interested and in-
volved."
During the business session the
committee reports pointed up
just how much is being accom-
plished. Ross McDaniel, cam-
paign chairman, complimented
all branch chairmen and their
canvassers for their ailed ef-
forts, having raised to date
$17,423.58. Hopefully the objec-
tive of $29,500.00 for 1975 will be
reached.
The annual dinner meeting will
be held on September 29th • at the
White Carnation, Holmesville,
with Ron Calhoun of Thamesford
as guest speaker. Tickets are al-
ready available to the public and
the president hopes for 'a good at-
tendance.
NATURAL BEAUTY blooms on the table as Mrs. I. E. Morrey and Mrs. J. Fielding price
their handicrafts in preparation for the upcoming flower show of the Wingham Horticul-
tural Society. The handicrafts, fashioned by the two ladies as a hobby, will be featured at
the spring show along with the real plants and cuttings.
Members demonstrate exercises
BLUEVALE—Mrs. Murray
Underwood was guest speaker at
the Family Affairs meeting of the
Women's Institute held last Wed-
nesday evening. She spoke on
physical fitness and stressed the
importance of daily exercising,
saying that the people of Canada
and United States are the most
physically unfit people of the
world. She was introduced by
Mrs. Ross Nicholson and
thanked by Mrs. William De Vos
who waS hostess for the meeting.
Mrs. Wendell Stamper, presi-
dent, welcomed the members and
several guests who were present.

Meals on Wheels now
in oDeration five veers
At a meeting . in St. Andrew's
Presbyterian Church on May 14,
the growth and scope of the Meals
on Wheels organization were dis-
cussed. The project began dsome
five years ago with three recipi-
ents and today deliveries have al-
most reached the maximum
capacity of the kitchen facilities
available.
Mention was .made of the wood-
en boxes used to carry the indi-
vidual meals. The boxes, de-
signed and constructed by Mr.
Beard of the F. E. Madill Secon-
dary School, have proven superi-
or to those used in neighboring
areas. The cons
the years has taken its toll an, I it
was suggested that the boxes be
replaced with plastic containers.
This suggestion was ruled out
as, being a non-profit organ-
ization,
rganization, funds are not available to
meet this expense. It was decided
that the existing boxes be re-
paired and -or replaced as re-
Appreciation was expressed for
the assistance provided by the
Wingham Snowmobile Club dur-
ing last month's snowstorm.
Members of the club took over
deliveries and assured that no
one missed his or her hot meal.
. Maintaining a full staff of
volunteer drivers is often diffi-
cult. Anyone willing to undertake
this work is asked to call Mrs. J.
Mann at 357-3864. Most drivers
deliver twice each month, but
anyone who can spare 45 minutes
even once a month is asked to as-
sist in this worthwhile endeavor.
