The Homemakers, said Mrs. Mounce, are especially trained and supervised persons who are capable of taking complete-charge in a home, looking after children, preparing meals and doing housework. This service would for example allow a mother to recuperate from sickness, etc. without having to -be bur- dened with household chores In addition, a father would not have to be absent from his work. Mrs. Judy McColl who attended the meeting as well, said she estimated that from June to August of this year, about ten persons in 'Port Perry could have used the services of a homemaker. The service is not limited to persons coming out of hospital. Any person, who for various reasons may not be able to care completely for - themselves in the home can SKi- adoo g . -- for you.
