Miss Rice's topic was: Programming in Rural Areas. The theme for the workshop was "Motivat- ing. the Older Adult" and Elaine Kingsmill Baillie was the keynote speaker. She is a consultant with the Ontario Homes for the Aged. A videotape entitled "Creat- ing the Non -Person" was viewed . and it described how we sometimes neglect to take the time to listen to people. How often have you automatically asked some- one, "How are you?", and not waited for their reply? The next foot clinics at the centre will be May 21 and May 29. Call 357-1440 if you plan to attend. The day centre continues to be a support service, providing , social and recreational programs for the homebound elderly. Voice for Life group holds annual meeting The Bill annual meeting of Wingham.

The meeting was chaired by George Brophy and about 150 people attended. Mrs. Sally Campeau, education chairman, in- troduced the guest speaker, Jim Hughes, president of Campaign Life Canada. Mrs. Campeau explained that the local Voice for Life chapter belongs to the .educational arm of the Canadian pro-life movement, Alliance for Life, while Mr. Hughes is president of the political arm of the movement, Other - affiliated groups such as, Birthright have practical and charitable aims. As president of Campaign Life Mr. Hughes said he works at least 60 hours a week without pay. In his speech he mentioned that Campaign Life has over 100,000 members across the country. Working with the group is no easy task, he said, since it means dealing with politicians whose pro- nouncements are often equivocal. In addition, media coverage of pro-life issues is not always objective, he said, asking why the media often refuse to present pictures of the fetus in the mother's womb while not flinching frons the most graphic depictions of violence and pornography. Mr. Hughes explained his own enthusiasm and active involvement in the pro-life campaign by recalling he had ' "waited patiently for someone to do something and realized I was (that) someone." He deplored the reporting of pro-life issues, saying it often obscures or misses the essential point that from.conception onward a distinct human life has been formed Referrals to the program are welcome and we do receive referrals from public health nurses, doctors, family members, clergy, neighbors, ' friends or self referral. Call us at the centre for more information. Hospital lottery winner Mary Bryans of King Street in Brussels was the April winner in the Wingham and District Hospital Lot- tery.
