BOWNIANVILLE PHONE 747 Rotary ProJeet Now The Ontario Society for Crip- pied Children was originated or the lines of a similar arganizatian started by Rotarian "Daddy" Al. len in the United States. From Windsor, the scheme caugbt on and spread throughout Ontaric with- Rotary adopting crippled cbildren work as a main project. In 1935, the Society decided ta start a nursing service which tbey did with the belp of the provincial gavernment. One nurse was em- pioyed. Today, 16 nurses work in this field tbroughout Ontario and the Society bas opened new offices at Sault Ste Marie and Kingston. Finding capable nurses and holding onto them proves a probiem. To begin with, a nurse must be experienced in public health work and she must be famîliar with orthopedics. The Society is cndeavouring to in- crease its nursing force at present. Perhaps the most publicized work carricd on by the Ontario Society is the summer camps they provide for crippled children. The top camp in Canada today, according ta Mr. Auld, is the camp the Society sponsors on Georgian Bay. Called " Blue Mountain, " the speaker said the camp was the Society's first yen- ture into real estate. Since the opening of Blue Mountain, however, the Society bas provided for two more sum- mer camps. Wood Eden, near London, and Merrywood, near Perth. Over 1100 children and adults were privilegcd ta spend time at camp this summer. Variety Village Another project of the Ontaria Society is Variety Village in Tor- onto. The personal financial re- sponsibility of the Variety Club of Toronto, the school is intcnded for the instruction o! handicapped boys. Last year, the Variety Club paid aperating expenses o! $56,000, and they are reputedly thinking of enlarging the premises. Var- .ety Village is "the oniy one of .ts kind in Canada" the speaker said. Mr. Auld was thanked for bis address on cripplcd cbildren, "the theme aromnd which aur service club revolves," by Dr. Keith ;lemon. President Dave Higgon also added bis thanks. Visitors at the Friday luncheon were: Nick Jenkins and Sid Bal- lard o! the Oshawa Rotary Club. Birthdays were celebrated by Ro- tarians Charles Carter Sr., and Elmer Ott.

The November meeting of New- tonville W.I. was held on Wed- nesday afternoon, Nov. 21st, at the home of Mrs. George Hender- son, with an attendance of 17. In the absence of the president, Mrs. William Milligan occupied the chair openîng the meeting with the regular Ode and prayer. The treasurer reported a balance on hand of $5.02. The secretary read an appeal for help for the hard-pressed people of Greece, and it was decided ta send $5.00 for their relief. A pair of flan- nelette blankets are also to be bought and sent ta flood vîctims in Jamaica. After some discussion $5.00 was set as the minimum objective ta be raised by each group during the winter. Mrs. Milligan gave an interesting rt- port from the W.I. Convention which she attended recently in T'oronto, and Mrs. Fred Hender-1 son read a paper on Current Events. The roll call was an ex- change of favorite recîpes. The December roll call is "My Favor- te Hobby" and we hope each one viii have something ta report. The programme was followed by asocial time and Mrs. lienderson and her group served a deliciaus lunch. j j I CLEARANCE 0F WOMEN'S Faili Handbags Regular values $3.98 - $4.98 - $5.95 Tao clear at the give away price of only $2.68 each An excellent gift suggestion in red, navy, black, green or tan.
