Bingo has become a popular event and an important part of the programs. On Feb. 14 members of the choir met with Bruce Cookson, music teacher from Hullett Central School. Bruce hopes to form a choral group at Huronview. Sunday morning worship was held in the chapel with Reverend Norman Pick in charge. Mabel Scott sang a solo. Marie Flynn and her ,musicians entertained on Monday and provided old Anne music. otk from Special Care had a social time Tuesday in the auditonaran. They played rhythm band instruments and Elsie Henderson presided at the piano. Residents tested their skill and luck on Wednesday afternoon. This was games time, and several residents were there to play ..throwing the bean bag", Chinese and plain checkers and other games. In the mornings now residents who do not nor- mally go to the auditorium are able to engage in an exercise program on their own floor and they seem to be responding quite well. Special Care people met again Thursday afternoon and had a good time with the rhythm 1...,nd. Frank Bissett accompanied them at the piano.

Poorposture is common ':.y Patrick er Faulty posture is a com- mon problem among young people and adults. It can cause pain and aching as well as deprive the person of a sense of well-being and an attractive appearance. For the person with ar- thritis, poor posture can con- tribute to further pain and may also lead to actual deformities of the ankles, knees, hips and the spine. It is, therefore, especially im- portant that you make every effort to maintain good posture. Correct posture is important not only in stan- ding or walking, but also in sitting, working and resting. Standing To develop proper posture, stand in front of a large mir- ror with your feet six to ei: ;t inches apart and with equal weight on each leg: - distribute your body weight between the heels and the . lls of your feet; low a space of a few in- ches between your knees. Your feet should point for- ward or slightly outwards; - have your knees straight, but do not "flock" them; - pull in your stomach and try to avoid bending your ck; - hold your shoulders level and relaxed. Lift up your chest; and - keep your head strai,.:: t but rel --lid and in line with your spine. When checking your posture, try to avoid stan- ding .,,i I in one place for long periods of time. This will both tire you and create stress on your muscles. Weking The same general prin- ciples apply to walking as to stan i lg. In ad. ition, you should: take •,, ual len,: h steps with each leg; - allow the same len::l h of time to take a step with each leg; - make sure your knees bend as each leg is moved forward into a new step; and - have your arms relaxed and let them swing slightly. S0 ks at vi hire in the h {tine The February 8 meeting of Xi Epsilon i to o;. ned with a discussion on Violence In The Home presented by Rekha Kalokhe. Ways and Means announc- ed a fun auction for the next meeting. Each member will contribute three or four items. Service chairman, Ann Adams, reported that the hospital had decided on the children's furniture for the new waiting room and a motion was passed to move ahead with the ordering of it. Mrs. Adams also announced that the daffodils for The Cancer Society would be ar- riving on March 24. Further discussion followed regar- ding Founder's Day and Klompen Feest. The next meeting will be held February 22 at the home of Rekha Kalokhe. 1f you need to use a cane, crutches or other walking devices, be sure that they are properly fitted for you and that you are profes- sionally instructed in the safe use of them. Foot Wear Comfortable feet and pro- per shoes are essential for correct posture and walking. Many aches and pains are caused by ill-fitting or non- supportive foot wear. Avoid slippers and wedge -type heels. A good Oxford style shoe will give adequate sup- port and space for the feet. A good shoe should meet the following general re- quirements: - it should have a broad heel, no more than one inch high; - the foot should be held in place by a firm heel counter; - the sole must be firm; - the front portion of the shoe must be broad and high to allow enough space for your toes. The top portion of the shoe should be of soft leather to mold comfortably around the foot; and - a lace closure to adjust for snug fit is generally better than "loafer" types. A large selection of attrac- tive orthopedic shoes are available in several styles for people who have difficul- ty finding comfortable shoes.

( Shelley McPhee photo) Ontario's small towns e alive and well "The average small town is growing," says Professor Gerald He ige in a paper presented to delegates at The New Neighborhood, a conference on housing and community development sponsored by the Ontario Ministry of Municipal Af- fairs and Housing. Professor Hodge, director of the school of urban and regional planning, Queen's University, presented his findings to a seminar titled The Small Town: Its Pro- spects and Planning. According to Hodge's research, "The total popula- tion of Canada's small towns grew by 3, in the 11 t Is to 3.9 million and in the 1970s . another 5 +,111 were add- ed." He also claims housing stock increased by "an as- tounding 25 per cent in each decade ... in all the regions tit" 111 1 t1 iJ ht »;h Ut1 ^tover it. That's a rough way to get over e!

This go n.: news is underlin- ed by the fact that 111 per cent of all centres in Canada add- ed new retail firms. Hodge goes on to state that "com- mercial growth currently is exceeding population in its rate of increase.” While admitting that growth rates may not be huge — studies put them at about 10 per cent — Hodge is emphatic ti ..11 the small town in Cana,. . is alive and well. The reasons for this revitalization are hard to pinpoint. An American researcher attributes much of it to the "new three Rs — Resources, Recreation, 'retirement." As an exam- ple, Hodge cited the case of Canmore, Alta. Fifty years ago it was a busy mining town, now its economy is based on tourism and recreation. Most important of all, says Hodge, is the "optimism and indomitable spirit" of the small town population. There are many illustrations of this. Hodge used the little Ottawa Valley village of For- far, which, faced with the prospect of the closing off its 120 -year-old cheese factory, fought ck and won. The community rallied and managed to re -open the fac- tory. Today it employs 14 people and sells cheese the world over. . Hodge concluded his speech by remarking upon the need for "a more flexi- ble, direct, case-by-case ap- proach . . . for land use regulation in small towns and villages." Solutions im- posed by centrally -located agencies tend to be regarded with suspicion, stated Hodge. "It cannot be said too forcefully that solutions to small town planning pro- blems should be small town solutions."
