penchant for fishing and casual
strolling created a stir at St.
Joseph Monday.

owned by Stanley Smith, R.R.2,

trousers she provided.

charged with indecent exposure,
attempted theft and trespassing.

Your family's health is your most
important possession.
This is ,, . t Ontario is doing
to help you protect it.
Most of us get sick or have an accident
at one time or another. And left to our
own resources, serious jllness'could
often cripple us financially.
So the government here in Ontario
has developed a plan to provide health
care for everybody, any time it's needed.
That plan is called Ontario Health
Insurance Plan— OHIP. (The "H"
stands for "Health,"not "Hospital.") The
Plan is administered by your Ontario
government for us, the people of the
province, who pay into it regularly so we
can benefit when we need it.
How does the Ontario Health
Insurance Plan work? Like this:
First, you apply for coverage—on a
"Group" basis where you work, or you
can pick up an application form at any
bank, hospital, or OHIP district office.
Next, you'll pay modest premiums to
cover yourself and your family towards
the time when health care is needed.
People on welfare, students, and
others whose incomes fall below a
certain level, are eligible for assistance
in paying their OHIP premiums. No one
is excluded for lack of money, but you
must apply for such premium assistance.
Benefits include: physicians' services
• standard ward hospital accommoda-
tion • X-rays • laboratory tests • drugs
required in hospital • operating and
delivery rooms • radiotherapy •
chiropractic, osteopathic, and chiropo-
dist services • eye examinations -
occupational therapy • physiotherapy
• speech therapy • nursing and medical
care in nursing homes and homes for
the aged • Home Care service •
ambulance • certain dental surgery.
Payments may cover costs entirely or
only in part, depending on the nature of
the claim.
But remember: Membership in the
Ontario Health Insurance Plan is not
automatic—you have to apply for it.
And be sure to carry your identification
card or OHIP number at all times.
If you would like more information,
visit any OHIP district office. Or write to:
