Sometimes arthritis is
referred to as the "hidden
disease", because unless
there is a marked joint
deformity many people with
rhematoid arthritis do not
look ill. ° However, . The

I. that'more work days are lost
each year because of arthri-
tis than because of strikes.

The rest, I hope, . are still

The big event, at least
from the amount of cheers
and calls, had to be the
horseshoe pitching. The.
winning father was Dr.

Was fathers against sons.
The sons won the 50 -foot race
and the fatherswon the 100 -

was a very wet event; it was
won by Ken Wood.
The final event was the
`grease pole chin')." Though.
all tried, only one was
successful, Dr. Leedham,
who after much struggling,
managed the amazing feat. ,
As a leader of 1st Wingham
