The Goderich Signal-Star, 1983-09-07, Page 15Dungann n woman spends month in Australia anNew Guinea visiting Mary Bere returned on August 24 after a four week trip to Australia and Papua New Guinea. She was accom- panied by her friend, Ruth Schmidt of Tavistock. They spent a week in Australia seeing Sydney, Canberra and Brisbane. They spent three weeks in Mount Hagen, Papua, New Guinea visiting Mary's daughter and son-in-law, Ruth and Jim Austin who are there for two years with CUSO. Ruth is an accountant with a job as Provincial Financial Advisor in the Government Development office for West- ern Highlands Province. Jim teaches carpentry, English and Physical Education at Ogelbeng Special Training Centre, a school in a former Lutheran Mission six miles from Mount Hagen. Ruth took her visitors to Kaiap Orchid Lodge 7,000 feet in the mountains and to Manies island, two degrees from the equator, north of Papua, New Guinea so they experienced both highlands climate and culture and coastal regions as well. Mary reports a marvellous trip with pleasant memories to last a life time. The surprising thing is that the heat here since she has returned is more oppressive sometimes than anywhere on her travels. Sydney, Australia was having winter and complain- ing of coldest weather in fifty years but it was beautiful sunny days like we some- times get in October. Mount Hagen, 5000 feet in the mountains is perpetual spring like weather, lovely sunny days and cool nights, rain often in late afternoon or evening. DUNGANNON DDNGS Merle Perk, 528-7718 Mary Bere spent last weekend in Hamilton visiting Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Neis- sen and attended their 25th wedding anniversary on August 26.

Welcome to the village Kim Fleischman and John Johnson of Cambridge. Kim is a niece of Gary Binder, who resides on the old Caesar farm at Glen's Hill. Brad Park returned home on Sunday following a holi- day with his cousins, Terry and Tena Schultz at R. 3 Clinton. Mr. and Mrs. Peter Martin and family moved east of Listowel on the weekend. Peter is employed at Frey Manufacturing and has been driving back and forth. Pet- er, Liz and family moved here in 1975 and have made many friends while living here, who wish them all the best. Dungannon United Church Rev. Roberts spoke about Caleb: "He wholly followed the Lord God of Israel". He chose the prayers and scrip- ture readings suitable for Labour Sunday. Dungannon Klnettes The Dungannon Kinettes were proud to sponsor Lori Matthews in the Miss Dun- gannon Fair contest. Again this year, Club members did some clowning around at the Fair and traded balloons for donating to Cystic Fibrosis. Over $60 was raised during the Friday evening and Saturday after- noon. The Kinettes hope to make this an annual project. On September 1, Social Convener Alison Paolin, ar- rangeda day in the sun at Shelter Valley.

Dungannon Women's Ins- titute guests were St. Hel- en's Women's Institute and Tiger Dunlop Women's In- stitute members, at the September 1 meeting, held in the Dungannon United Church. President Winnifred Girvin welcomed the good turn out. After secretary treasurer Bessie McNee read the min- utes and gave the treasurer's report, the roll can was "Your opinion on abolishing Grade 13, with the majority feeling it should remain. Thank you letters were read from Zambia for the many knitted squares sent which have made 780 baby blankets to date; also a letter from teacher Jim Austin, New Guinea, for the very welcome writing supplies sent via his mother-in-law, Mary Bere. Readings by Elsie Irvin were much enjoyed, Moving Gramps to Town, and Some Facts. Marian Zinn introduced guests pecker Margaret Rob- inson, a teacher from Clin- ton, who took a year's leave of absence to teach English in Indonesia. The excellent commentary with the slides gave a cltsar view of their culture with their dire need for clean water to drink. Two tables displayed the many items she brought from Indonesia. Mrs. Robinson's goal is to raise $3,000 to help Indonesians have clean drinking water. Peggy Pur - don thanked Margaret. Lunch was served provid- ed by Hostesses Winnifred Girvin, Beth Rutledge, Flos- sie lvers, Belle Mole, Greta Stewart, Olive Blake and Beth McConnell.

The Addiction Research Foundation wants the public to "THINK ABOUT IT" - to THINK ABOUT drinking and driving problems. And to take action to reduce them. As part of the "THINK ABOUT IT" campaign, the Foundation has distributed public service an- nouncements to radio sta- tions throughout Ontario featuring lifestyle vignettes similar to the ones above. They were created to trigger awareness of the impact alcohol can have on every- day veryday events ® events such as driving, boating, swinuning and barbecues ® where too much alcohol can spoil the fuse. Summer vs. Christmas In an earlier news release (July 22,.1983), the Founda- tion pointed out that the sum- mer is a more dangerous time for drinking and driv- ing than the winter. And yet, the public may still think that drinking and driving hazards are higher around the Christmas season. But, the latest statistics from the Metropolitan Toronto Police support the Foundation's earlier statement. In 28 days of July of this year, there were 147 alcohol- related accidents in Metro Tot'onto alone as compared to 28 days of DeceMber, 1982, when there were 100. That's about a 50 percent increase during the summer. Serious crashes increase substantially during the about one traffice injury or summer (June to death every l% hours.

Allow enough time to become sober after the last drink - that is, more than one hour per standard drink. Also, combining alcohol with antihistamines (cold, cough and allergy remedies), marijuana, tran- quillirers, barbiturates, or "sleeping pills" can inten- sify the effects of these drugs to a dangerous degree. The use of alcohol alone, or in combination with any of the above drugs, impairs one's ability to drive an automobile or boat, operate machinery, swim and per- form erform other similar ac- tivities.
