C�►nou PLAIN APER COPIER NP Local students learn dos and don'ts of babysitting Ten Seaforth area students have been get- ting the basics in child care at a babysitting course held at St. James Separate School in recent weeks. The St. James Parent-Teacher Commit- tee has sponsored the program, and it is be- ing run by Mary Margaret Nash and Mary Longstaff, nurses at the Seaforth Communi- ty Hospital, and Helen Van Bakel, a teacher at the separate school. This is the first year the St. James PTC has offered this course -although it has been offered by other groups in the past- and they hope to continue it in the future. Students who take the course attend four classes of two hour duration and learn about babysitting through both practical ex- perience and theory. Some of the theoretical teaching is on such things as fire safety, child safety, first aid, and child behaviour, and most of what is learned relies on com- mon sense and is simple, but useful. Par- ticipants learn such things as first aid treat- ment for shock or burns, and are also taught basics in child behavior, and what they can expect from children at various ages. For practical learning, dolls are used and the babysitters who take the course, most of them between the ages of 10 and 12, learn how to change a diaper, feed a baby, burp a baby etc. The course material is sponsored by the Red Cross Youth, who provide booklets for the students and instructors and a test which the students write at the end of the course. 54�C1p,1• Reg. $2,389. x1,899 •LEASE FOR AS LITTLE AS$64.56 per month plus tax HURON BUSINESS MACHINES SALE ENDS JUNE 30/88 50 Albert St., CLINTON COLLECT: 482-7338 ANNUAL MEETING Wingham & District Hospital Corporation Notice is hereby given that the Annual Meeting of the Wingham and District Hospital Corporation will be held in the Nursing Assistants Train- ing Centre, Catherine St., Wingham, Ontario on Thursday, June 16th, 1988, at the hour of eight o'clock p.m., for consideration and confir- mation of revocation of Medical Staff Bylaw 48: for the election of Gover- nors; for the appointment of Auditors; and for the transaction of such other business as may properly come before the meeting.

LUNG ASSOCIATION Over the past year the Huron -Perth Lung Association has been quite busy with public relations, «programming, fundraising and administration. As the community has become more aware of the association's resources telephone enquiries have increased and Bet - of association ty Hunter, Executive Director, says much time is spent just helping people in that way. Three thousand pamphlets have been distributed and that figure does not include the literature on display at the various Health Fairs in which the local association has participated. Ms. Hunter said information about smok- ing in the workplace is in demand by hospitals, Health Units, businesses and in- dustries, and Countdown courses have taken place in a number of communities. She noted 18 participants testified to the success of a Better Breathing Program in Goderich and a similar program in Strat- ford had to be moved to a larger venue when 27 participants turned up. Two Family Asthma Programs gave 45 children the benefit of exercise, education and fun in the pool and parents were very appreciative of the information gained at their six sessions. The association gave 21 classroom presen- tations in schools and 10 to various com- munity organizations. At present organization is underway for the International Plowing Match to be held in Stratford in September. The Huron -Perth Lung Association plans to have a booth at that event, in the Health Agencies area. Tri PEOPLE 4 ANNUAL MEETING -'Dr. J.
