The program of supervised
swimming has been in effect
since 1951. Councillor Des Jar -
dins ,who has been in charge of
the +program in recent years
while he was clerk and since
becoming a council member
said Grand Bend has been free
of drownings since 1957.
Shelly Linner has been
assisting in painting picture
frames and other jobs.
"In our endeavours it has
been a learning experience for
us too, and the students have
learned how artists work."
Marlatt told the meeting.
Marlatt said the paintings
were not for sale but were to be
turned over to the hospitals. He
suggested that they should be
placed where the paintings
could be seen by the patients.
"I hope the patients will get
enjoyment from the paintings.
They are straight forward
realistic creations."
Marlatt said 35 oil paintings
will be completed and about
120 silk screen prints by the
end of the project on May 31.
The oil paintings will require
frames, which he suggested
might be supplied by the
hospital auxiliary. The silk
screen prints will be framed.
He proposed that the pain-
tings might be divided among
the four hospitals - Seaforth,
Clinton, Goderich and Exeter
and Huronview.

Goderich woman vice-president
of Huron -Perth TB RD Assoc.
By Wilma Oke
Rev. Garbutt Smith of Strat-
ford was elected president of
the Huron -Perth TB and
Respiratory Disease
Association at the annual
educational 'dinner meeting
held in Egmondville United
Church last Wednesday (May
2). He succeeds Ivan Forsyth of
Kippen.
Vice-presidents are Miss
Eileen O'Brien of Goderich and
Mrs. Frank Dodds of Stratford.
The 1972 Christmas Seal
campaign was reported to be
the most successful to date with
receipts totalling $38,203 corn,
pared to $35,148 in 1971. This
was 11 percent population sup-
port, the highest in the
province.
A. Les McDonald of Toronto,
Program: Consultant with the
Ontario T.B. and Respiratory
Disease Association, was the
guest speaker on the topic of
current trends in the TB and
Respiratory Disease movement.
Mr. McDonald spoke of the
Ontario Department of Health
assuming full responsibility for
control, of TB in the province,
beginning on April 1, 1970,
leaving the Association free to
develop programs that would
hopefully meet the needs in
respiratory disease and in ad-
dition to co-ordinate and ex-
pand interest in air pollution.
with emphasis on anti -cigarette
smoking programme activities.
Full-time medical director,
Dr. C. Gray has been the result
and affiliation with medical
schools has been achieved. Part
of ,this program is the granting
of funds to teaching hospital
respiratory units and grants in
aid. This coming year, Mr.
_McDonald reported that
$141,340 is being budgeted for
this purpose.
He reported there are 30
qualified program co-
ordinators in Ontario directing
the respiratory • disease
programme.
The objective of the TB and
Respiratory Disease movement
is to .assist in the prevention,
detection and control of
diseases of file lung, financed
by the Christmas Seal cam-
paign, .with some monies
received from memorial gifts
and bequests.
Mr. McDonald stated that
prevention is through health
education and the number one
priority here is pointing up the
health hazard of cigarette
smoking to youth, through
school and other orientated
health education programs.
Mr... McDonald said that
detection of respiratory
diseases is carried -out by
screening and fac,ility develop-
ment. He said screening
— programs probably are as much -
a health. education activity as a
case -finding one.
A survey of home care ser-
vices as effecting RD patients is
being carried out across the
province, Mr. McDonald repor-
ted.
Mr. McDonald said control is
through rehabilitation,. both
social and medical and there
has been great development in
this area in the past two years
by physical conditioning cour-
ses for asthmatic children.
Classes in this area are carried
out by Mrs. lan Clarke and
Mrs. Graham Bowker, both
physiotherapists.
Breathing conditioning cour-
ses are held for adult patients
too. also Better Breathing and
Respiratory Disease and Em-
physema Clubs --social and
educational. Smoking with-
drawal courses are the newest
and fastest growing program
activity in the province, Mr.
McDonald said.
On the cigarette subject, Mr.
McDonald said that contrary to
commonly held opinion, a
minority, only two out of five
At Seaforth
Local
A Goderich artist, Jim
Marlatt was the guest speaker
at a meeting of the Seaforth
Hospital Auxiliary recently. He
had about a dozen pictures on
display of Huron County scenes
or buildings.
Marlatt and Ernie Niblock of
Goderich were awarded
$117,000 on January 8 on a
Canadian adults, are habitual
cigarette smokers. He said from
a peak of 58 percent in 1965,
the proportion of regular
cigarette 'smokers among men
20 and over dropped to 51 per-
cent in 19,70. He said the
proportion of regular smokers
among teenage girls has in-
creased substantially, 19 per
cent in 1965 to 25 percent in
1970, up one-third. He said
female smoking is up 200 per-
cent.
"Cigarette smoking cessation
is our number one program
priority," Mr. McDonald
stated. "We must be prepared
as members of our Association
and as people concerned with
the health of our family, friends
and neighbours to take a stand
on this health problem. There
is only one- position --there can
be no compromise. We can
overcome this health hazard by
all playing a part at this time
by upholding the rights of non-
smokers and by assisting in in-
creasing the population of non-
smokers so that smoking will
be socially unacceptable."
Several children from the
Asthmatic • Conditioning '
Program demontrated some of
the exercises learned at classes
with Mrs. Graham Bowker of
Clinton, Physiotherapist, ex-
plaining the need for exercises
in breathing properly. She said
the prablem with breathing
with these children is not that
they can't breathe in properly,
but they have difficulty in
breathing out.

Councillor Bob Sharen who
has been handling beach affairs
since the resignation of Coun-

no alternative but to scrap the

Said .Sharen, "Our chief

provided extra equipment
which would cost about $300."
He continued, "We ap-
