INFANT AND PRESCHOOL HEALTH There were 11 child health centres held during October with a total attendance of 153 infants and preschool children. This showed a considerable increase over the already good attendance of the previous month when 81 children were brought by mothers or guardians to see the public health nurse at the child health centre. The local service organizations sponsoring the child health cen- tres in each community are doing a wonderful job of assisting the mother and babies at the clinic, of helping the nurse with the keep- ing of records. and of seeing that this busy afternoon runs smoothly. Parents are receiving valuable help with every day child-raising problems, assistance with difficul- ties in training and feeding young- sters. and encouragement in fol- lowing their family physician’s directions and advice. SANITATION The annual inspection of 82 school buildings and premises in the Health Unit is again under way. and will soon be completed. Attention is paid to those things which affect the health of the pupils, such as lighting, heating, ventilation, and washing and toil- :t facilities. While most school Joards are keenly aware of the importance of these things, there are one or two exceptions where a great deal of improvement is York County Heaith Unit Reports For Month Oct. ? .unmnmmuummuuuuuuImuuuuuuuummmmuumumuumunummmuuummuuuuuunununuImun\lmunullmummmmmuuumtfi Emlllllllulll\lllllllllllllllllllll‘llllllfllunIlllllI“llllllllll“llll“ll\\lllllllllllllllllllnlllllul“l\\\lll“R\l\\l\\\\\“\\\m\“ll‘l\l!\lllllllll\l\\\\\l\l\\l\\“\\l“\\mg I would like to thank the electors of Vaughan Township for their generous support in re-electing me to Council for 1953.

This valuable contribution to the local civil defence program can also be of great importance in times of local community disaster. such as large fires or train wrecks which couuld result in injury to many people in the community. and could present a sudden emergency situation. Miss Smyth's efforts, supported by those of the Toronto and York Civil Defence program, deserve a lot of praise. HEALTH EDUCATION During October members of the staff of the Health Unit made ad- dresses to 10 different organiza- tions in the area. and attended 14 other meetings as representatives of, the public health department: urgent. It is hardly fitting to say that what was good enough for grandfather is good enough for to-day's pupil, as would seem to be the case in one or two schools where very little has been done to eliminate chilly draughts and dangerous overheating from worn- out stoves and furnaces that ap- pear to have been in the school buildings for some decades. It is also a little difficult for the teach- er and the public health nurse to instruct the pupil in the value of using soap and water when none is available in the school build- ing. In some schools the lack of sanitation in the toilet compart- ments would shock the parents whose children must. of necessity, make use of such facilities during the day. . . . . $895.00 $425.00 she makes smart brooches from l'ungus taken from trees, buttons from bits of willow and apple wood.. and earrings from acorns. She illustrated how interesting Christmas gifts of fancy pin trays can be made by the littlest child if they mold a dried orange peel on a tin lid from a jam jar, and after it has dried like leather. a decoration can be painted on the white part of the fruit. Before the meeting a Christmas sale be- tween the members took place, when nylon bags. place mats, smocked blouses and dresses, and leather articles were sold. The leather group served the tea which brought a very interesting meeting to a close. “Happy Journey” â€"â€"rrv -~â€"77- June Scott has been congratul- ated. for her portrayal of Caroline Mr .and Mrs. Gambrill were ad- dressed by E. S. Reddick. who told them that he had never before had such pleasure in organizing any event, for he had been astounded at the wonderful response given to him and his commtitee, when they decided that the time had come to show Mr. Gambrill how much they appreciated his faithful service.

When the presentation was made, Ewart Jennings read an ad- dress which referred to the high respect of everyone in the comâ€" munity which Mr .Gambrill had earned. as had his courageous wife, for it was- remembered that on many occasions she had helped him to deliver the mail, over roads that were unfit for travel. ‘ At one meeting each year. the W.A. of T‘eston United Church deâ€" votes the program to the progress of the missions of the United Church, On Wednesday, Novem- ber 26, Mrs. H.

The Bantus are recognized as the lead- er race in Africa and are great travellers, and are ready to listen to new ideas. It is the desire of the missionaries to teach these people how to better their exist- ence, spiritually and physically, and although the teaching of the Gospel is their main intent. much instruction is being given in bet- ter methods of" agriculture, dietet- ics, sanitation. child care, etc. An appropriate solo was sung by Mrs. Charles Robson and Mrs. E.

R. 3 King. and his post office associates, gathered in the Masonic Hall, on Wednesday evening, to honour him. Twelve tables of euchre were filled and it was not until the games were over, and the tables cleared for refresh- ments. that Mr. Gambrill realized that this was his own party.
