Zurich Citizens News, 1976-11-10, Page 6Page 6 -Citizens News, November 10, 1976 Golden Glimpses e 8 3 BLUE WATER REST HOME Although the Residents didn't seem to mind the thick layer of snow around on Mon- day morning, those of us who had to get out and drive were not quite so happy. Here's hoping we will still get Indian summer as I doubt if many are ready for winter to set in. On Monday evening films were shown, followed by re- freshments. The Ladies Auxiliary held their regular monthly meeting on Tuesday evening at 7:00 in the dining room. Bingo was played and the Residents were then served refreshments. We hope everyone is aware of the annual bazaar and bake sale to be held on Saturday, November 20th from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. Donations of bazaar items and home baking will be very much appreciated. We are pleased to have Mr, Scott Chandler from Victoria Hospital much improved. On Thursday evening members of the Mennonite Church gathered in the hallways and sang for the Residents. We are grateful for the nylons and panty hose that has been coming in and we hope you will keep collecting them for us. We are also interested in "Legs" containers for use in the hobby shop. If somebody in your family uses this brand of nylons, we would appreciate the container. The regular bingo was held on Friday evening followed by refreshments. The Sunday evening chapel service was conducted by Rev. Merlin Bender of the Blake Conservative Mennonite Church. Huronview social evening A social evening for represen- tatives of groups and individual volunteers was held in the Auditorium Thursday evening. Mr. Chester Archibald, Admin- istrator, showed coloured slides and gave an interesting com- mentary of a trip taken last summer to Western Canada. Special events that had been filmed with the new audio visual equipment was shown followed by a general discussion on volunteer work. Mrs. Fink- beiner of Exeter expressed the appreciation of the volunteers to Mr. Archibald for sharing his trip and to the kitchen staff who prepared the buffet lunch. Mr. Dick Roorda led the Christian Reformed Song Ser- vice on Sunday evening accom- panied at the piano by Marlene Vanderwal. The residents en- joyed two numbers by the juniors. The Clinton Legion provided a film for the Family Night program. The story of the film was related to Armistice day and was filmed in Holland and France. Percy Brown and Bert Colombe operated the pro- jector and Mrs. Henderson and Mrs. Parker played piano instrumentals during inter- mission. Miss Margaret Mit- chell who spent several years as a nurse in the armed services thanked all those responsible for the program. Miss Sybil Courtice and Mrs. Ross McNee -were welcomed to the over 90 Club at the November meeting. Twenty- six members attended the get- together and joined in the sing -a -long accompanied by Mrs. Elsie Henderson. The Walkerburn Club volunteers assisted with the activities. Lung research is making major advances Respiratory disease research is less than a quarter of a century old, but is making major advances reports Dr. Earl Hershfield, Medical Direc- tor of the Canadian Tubercul- osis and Respiratory Disease Association, the national Christ- mas Seal Organization. Each Provincial Association including the Huron -Perth Lung Association devotes a portion of its funds to the Canadian Tuberculosis and Respiratory Disease Association for its national research and scholar- ship program. In addition the Huron -Perth Lung Association provides funds for research and medical education within the province. The three main areas now under investigation by Canadi- an researchers funded through Christmas Seal dollars are— early detection of lung diseases; epidemiological studies on the prevalence of lung diseases, that is the patient, the cause, the environmental interaction; and the immunological aspects of lung disease including tuber- culosis, that is the response of the body to the causal agents. The earliest changes which can be detected at the present time of the presence of lung diseases, are when small airways begin to close pre- maturely. Now, Canadian in- vestigators are. working to develop and refine a useful and practical laboratory test to determine when this closing action begins to occur. The earlier the lung disease is detected, the earlier the treat- ment and ultimately the cure. Research is a long, slow, tedious, costly process as each avenue must be thoroughly explored, tested, retested, then confirmed by the investigators peers before the public can receive the benefits. The aim of the Huron -Perth Lung Association is the preven- tion and control of lung Diseas- es. Much of this can be accom- plished through research using Christmas Seal dollars. Roughage needed in diet Call it fibre or roughage, it's all the same thing and nutri- tionists say you need it every day. Recent research shows a link between a lack of fibre and heart disease and cancer. Eat whole grain cereals, dark breads, fresh fruits and vege- tables at every meal, every day: day. When processors refine foods making white flour and bread from dark, or instant potatoes from fresh, they remove an important nutrient —fibre. Nut- ritionists are now of the opinion that refined foods are lacking in an ingredient which is needed to avoid such diseases as cancer of the colon, appendicitis and heart disease. To keep healthy, Dr. Zak Sabry and Ruth Fremes advise that you eat fresh fruits and vegetables every day, whole grain cereals and breads instead of refined cereal and white bread. For a diet rich in fibre and all of the nutrients for health, eat a balanced diet. No one food will ward off disease, say nutritionist Dr. Zak Sabry and home economist Ruth Fremes. Eat a breakfast of orange juice, shredded wheat with banana and milk and whole wheat toast. Have lunch of whole wheat bread sandwich with celery and cucumber, an apple and glass of milk for lunch. At dinner, include at least two vegetables and a salad along with your meal. Always eat the skins of fruits like apples and vegetables like potatoes.
