The Goderich Signal-Star, 1978-08-17, Page 274 Round `n'About In the last few years - I'm repeating parts of Editor Keller's write-up to Dear Readers of last week -- the mentally handicapped youngsters and oldsters in Goderich and area are developing some new interests. Besides the regular swimming and bowling, programs of weaving and dancing, hockey and golf - and driving cars, extra school classes, and municipal recreation programs even hunting, and gun safety, have been providing a lifetime of living experiences for Martha Rathburn ap- pears weekly in The Signal -Star ...with Martha "never give up - try again" attitude where the less fortunate of our' society are concerned. I probably would not have re -read the article had it not been for the first few paragraphs seemingly stressing that Betty had given so much of herself mainly because of her "special child" Linda. Her love for Linda and others like her, may have created a beginning for Betty's passion but it was definitely not her only reason - as implied - as many who know her will verify. I'm sure our editor did not mean to create this impression but to newcomers and others wh.o da.not_ know. -how --far -- Betty has gone in her -Guest-,-_..- -for -- 1arge.r programs and a better way of life for the men- tally slow or handicapped would perhaps feel this was her only interest It takes many, many years working with these people, young and old, whether physically or mentally handicapped to begin to see the results which have shown up in the last few years. Now that the funding for this program is in doubt, Betty and her many friends are very concerned and feel surely something - can be worked out among the municipalities for something that touches not only the mentally handicapped but society as a whole. We can only hope everyone will support this program now that it is rolling so well and the Powers That Be can route out things less important and integrate this as part f the municipalities' udgets. Let us pray! • h-i.ngs -a-re to -ugh ---all. Over! --Yon'r1orger-S-an rdayy , August 19, the Green Thumbers' Flower Show is at Victoria School.
