In Ontario there are 167 clubs doing the same work as Whitby Rotary. "Treatment for crippled children is prolonged and expensive," Mr. Hopper pointed out. "It requires time and patience and much money: At present we are focuss- ing attention upon cerebral palsy victims. Usually the cause cannot be removed but much can be done to improve their muscular co- ordination and prepare them for a vocation in which mental ability is required. Though there is no train- ing school yet in Canada for spas- tics, we hope to use part of Wood- eden, near London." The need for provision of sum- | mer camps has been partly filled by the Blue Mountain Camp near Col- | lingwood. The provincial govern- | ment is assisting the work finan- | cially to a considerable extent. A residential vocational school is soon to be built at the east end of To- ronto on land at the junction of Danforth Avenue and Kingston Road. | Eighty-nine Rotary Clubs this year sold Easter Seals to 'raise a total of $200,000. This project does not interfere with the sale of Christmas seals. J. M. Roblin, chairman of Rotary Crippled Children's Committee, in- troduced the speaker and he was thanked by Dr. G. L. MacDougall.
