A Home At Home
When Frank Dietrich, RR 3, Zurich, sold
,his farm some time ago he was concerned
about a place to live, so he reserved a sec-
tion of land on the farm for his own personal
use. Now he has a newhome, still at home.
This is the fine new mobile home Frank
has purchased to spend his leisure time in.

Progress regarding the pre-
employment - Pre -retirement
program was a highlight of the
case finding report of the Hur-
on County Tuberculosis Associ-
ation meeting in the Town Hall,
Clinton, on Thursday. One
hundred and thirty-two busi-
nesses have been contacted re-
garding having all employees
X-rayed initially and periodi-
cally. These businesses, to-
gether will all public school
teachers in the county, have
received a booklet entitled, "TB
—The Road to Eradication",
,also. The co-operation of the
hospitals had been expressed.
The meeting was in charge of
the president, George A. Watt,
of Blyth.
Of 307 persons screened in
the foodahandlers' survey, 24 of
them required chest clinic fol-
low-up. No active cases of tu-
berculosis were found, but sev-
eral were sent to their family
physician for medical attention.
Two hundred and one persons
had attended chest clinics since
the last meeting.
Miss Louise Robertson, edu-
cation chairman, reported that
3,000 pamphlets and posters had
been obtained for public health
nurses' use in schools •and else-
where. Members expressed ap-
preciation to the residents of
Huron County for their gener-
ous support of the Christmas
Seal campaign. In view of the
increased program in case find-
ing, education and social serv-
ice, there is need for constant
support. Campaign receipts this
year were $715 over last year's
total.
E. E. Walker reported con-
cerning the semi-annual Ontario
Tuberculosis Association meet-
ing held in Toronto. Addresses
were heard, not only on control
of tuberculosis, but the need
for research in fighting all res-
piratory diseases.
The annual meeting of the
association will be held in Blyth
on May 30, with E. J. O'Brien
as speaker. Mr. O'Brien is the
executive director of the On-
tario Tuberculosis Association,
and has just returned from
Thailand, where he spent some
months activating the TB Asso-
ciation there.
SUCAR
AND SPICE

THAT MARCH MADNESS
I have a profound respect for
poet T. S. Eliot. But one of his
lines, that which says, "April is
the cruellest month", isp ure
poppycock. He had obviously
never spent a March in these
parts.
April is no bar g a i n, but
March is a month no honest
taxpayer should have to put up
with. At its best, it is 31 days
of pure drear; at its worst, a
century of bleak horror.
Raw east winds that chap the
hands, chill the bones, redden
the nose, deaden the soul.
Third bout of la grippe in three
months. Holes in your over-
shoes. Faces of friends become
hateful. Tailpipe and muffler
gone on the car. Eavestroughs
sagging. Spirits f 1 a g g i n g,
Spring is merely a word in the
dictionary. Winter is a mon-
ster, clawing your shoulder.
If you're anything like me„
you're hanging on by your
teeth. This is fairly easy, be-
cause your nose has been run-
ning, and you're keeping a stiff
upper Hp. It's frozen. And
your teeth are exposed.
It's a wonder we don't all turn
as mad as March hares, and
cut our collective throat, if only
to add a bit of color to relieve
grim, grey March.
But cheer up, chaps, all is
not lost. I have a little thera-
peutic theory that works won-
ders. It is the only thing that
saves me, in March, from run-
ning out into the snow, in bare
feet and long underwear, bab-
bling, "T. S. Eliot is mad, mad
I tell you, mad!"

I first discovered this theory
when I had trouble sleeping.
After .a long evening of too
much work, to many fags, and
too much coffee, I'd crawl into
bed, and lie there as rigid as a
rake, toes curled tightly, eyes
burning brightly, no more
chance of getting to sleep than
getting to heaven.
One such night, I remem-
bered. "Listen, Buster," 1 told
myself. "Fifteen years ago to-
night, you were Tying on the
floor of a boxcar, freezing,
hands and feet tied with wire,
on your way to a prison camp.
"And here you are lying in a
soft bed, in a warm house, with
a warm woman beside you and
warm blankets over you, and no
night -fighters shooting up the
place, and no guards wander-
ing in to give you a kick. So
what if you don't sleep a wink?"
In 14 seconds I was asleep. It
works every time.
Now, the same technique ap-
plies when it comes to saving
my sanity in March.
When the miseries of March
have me reduced to one great
bellow of frustration, I put it
to work. "Old buddy," I say
to myself, "just go back 300
years. Let yourself go, now.
Not three miles from here, they
were eking out their March,
half -frozen, half-starved, half -
blind."
And I think about them
the Indians, nearing the bitter
end of a bitter winter, in their
long -houses. Men, women, chil-
dren, dogs, pell-mell in a seven-
teenth century Nissen hut made
JEFFREY—MEIDINGER
St, James' Roman Catholic
Church, Seaforth, was the set-
ting for the marriage of Phyllis
Marie Anne Meidinger and Jo-
seph Edward Jeffrey, Goderieh.
Rev. J. T. Saigeon officiated.
Mr. and Mrs. Delmer Meidin-
ger, Seaforth, formerly of Zur-
ich, are the bride's parents, and
the groom is the son of Mr. and
Mrs. Edward Jeffrey, Goderieh,
The bride chose for her wed-
ding a floor -length gown of
white peau de soie with scoop-
ed n e c k l in e and lily -point
sleeves. Her shoulder -length
veil of French illusion was held
by a rosebud crown, and she
carried white mums and red
roses.
Attending the b r i d e were
Miss Bernadette Aubin, cousin
of the bride, and Miss Joanne
Meidinger, sister of the bride,
wearing street -length gowns of
deep rose peau de sole with an
overskirt.
Best man was Anthony Mei-
dinger, London, brother of the
bride, and Lennis Bedard of
Goderieh. Ushering the guests
were Adrian Lansbergen, Strat-
ford, and William De Jong,
Seaforth.
For a wedding trip to the
States the bride chose a teal
blue wool suit with white feath-
er hat and black accessories.
The couple will reside in
Goderieh.

of boughs and bark and skins,
Two or three hundred human
beings crawling over each other
in about the space you and.
your family occupy. Cold.
Hungry. Stench unbelievable,
Smoke from cooking fires in-
describable.
The last of the neat gone.
The maize reduced to a few
handfuls. Spruce tea and moss
stew on the menu. Hunting
impossible because of the slush.
Flabby breast and swollen bel-
lies. And always the cold.
No refrigerators stocked with
steaks and roasts and milk and
eggs. No shelves of canned
goods. No supermarkets a few
blocks away, No heat, no light,
No bathroom. No books. No
television, And always the
cold.
A few cynics will add, "And
no income tax, no mortgages,
no insurance policies,, no fuel
bilis, no ulcers, no doctor's
bills." True, Wanna trade?
Not I. I turn up the thermo-
stat a bit. I mix a hot toddy..
Then I sit by the fireplace, lis-
tening to the wind whistling
around the house. I sniff the
waft of pot roast from the kit-
chen.
itchen. T pick up a book, put a
record on the hi-fi.
I listen to my wife, who is
not fighting with Mrs, Abenaki
about who gets the fire next,
to make dog soup.
And my March madness is
gone. Try it.
