Letter to the Editor August 26, 1974. Dear Sir, May I appeal to your readers to support the Inter- national Society for the Pro- tection of Animals in their attempts to provide relief for the tens of thousands of abondoned, stray and injured animals in Cyprus. Many of these animals are in pitiful condition, all requ1ire assist- ance. I do not wish to suggest, for one moment, that animals in this tragic situation should be given priority over human needs. In fact I hope that the matter will be kept in proper perspective. Nevertheless the need is urgent and, by helping to solve the animal problems, we may be playing a small part in helping the situation la Cyprus return to normal. The Ontario Humane Soc- iety, which is a member of the International Society for the Protection of Animals, has been asked to provide assis- tance in the form of drugs and veterinary supplies. We are arranging with veterinary drug supply companies to have supplies shipped to Cyprus and we are opeful that these supplies will be flown to Cyprus in Govern- ment aircraft. If not we will send them by air in the normal manner. Anyone wishing to support this appeal should send a donation to the Ontario Hum- ane Society narked "Cyp- rus". Yours sincerely, T. I.Hughes, Executive Vîce-President TYBOnNE Mrs. Laverne Taylor was a Sunday supper guests of Mr. and Mrs. G. Millson, New- castle. 'Moving" seemed to be the order of the day in our village on Saturday. Mr. and Mrs. Cavers moved out and the new people moved in. In the J. Reyenga house it was the same and the new people moved into the home formerly owned by the J. Lackey family. At the present I do not know the names of the new families but we welcome them to our fair village and hope their stay will be long and pleasant. Mr. and Mrs. Gerry Corn- ish, Shannon and Ken were Saturday evening guests of Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Ashton, Scugog Island.
