UIC costs are at a record high level, the number of welfare cases has doubled, and a 30 per cent increase this year is forecast. The Midland-Pene- tanguishene Joint Manpower Assessment and Planning Com- mittee says in_ its Ottawa brief, '""The only stable industry in the area is the Penetanguishene Mental Health Centre under the auspices of the Ministry of Health. This establishment is loaded to capacity and expanding, as it reflects other types of casualties from our economic plight." "Research shows a hidden sector of people who have moved in with friends and relatives, are not employed, do not receive welfare and having exhausted UIC may not appear on the books of either agency."' And "These ranks will be swollen as UIC will run out for some estimated 497 people during January-March, 1983, and a further 500 waiting to find out if the Star will replace any of the damaged pictures. e| V Antennas eSatellite Dishes 526-4652 Balm Beach Rd., Midland We're glad you asked! Jim Lynn Funeral Director WHAT DO YOU SAY TO A GRIEVING WIDOW? Because it is so difficult to know how a grieving person really feels, we advise that you not say: "I know how you must feel." It is not necessary to force a conversation, nor to extoll the virtues of the deceased to the grieving family. Silent expressions of emotion and compassion (like a firm _Sripping of the hand) and a simple, "I'm sorry," are frequently more eloquent than talkative attempts at eulogies. Listening and just "'being there" shows that you care. Your presence is an indication of your desire ee in December to be sympathetic and comforting. : Above all, don't try to jolt a grieving widow out Cost of of her grief.
