Wesley ville News [intended for last week] The September morn of Sunday 7th was clear and cool with the deep blue sky a wonderful backdrop for the changing shapes of fleecy clouds. Worship service at Welcome United was held at the church with Rev. W. Sedgwick in charge. The end of the holiday season mans' 1 the end of the outdoor service held on the lawns of members throughout the township, only once during the summer did weather make it necessary to go inside. Rev. Sedgwick's theme for the morning was apropos for the beginning of a new season. It was based on the story from Luke telling of Peter and his fellow fishermen working all night and failing to make a catch. Jesus told them to go into deeper water and try again. So with life, for most it is not a smooth paved road. Time and time again we slip from grace and must get up and try again. The only real failure is when we cease to try again. The message for the children reminded them that whether we worship God in the open air or inside a building we have been promised that where two or three are 1 + Federal Environmental Assessment Review Office Bureau fédéral d'examen des évaluations environnementales ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT PANEL PORT HOPE • NEWCASTLE AREA LOW- LEVEL RADIOACTIVE WASTE DISPOSAL PROPOSAL Operational procedures for the review by a Federal Environmental Assessment Panel studying the proposal by Eldorado Resources Limited and Atomic Energy of Canada Limited to dispose of low-radloacllve wastes In the Port Hope - Newcastle area are now available.

In 1963 Mrs. Vogelgesang and children went home to Germany but Nick remained in America. He has travelled much, spent time in Texas where he said he earned a degree in Philosophy. Philosophy. He had been in British Honduras and while there someone killed a mother monkey and Nick rescued its baby. As proof of that when Truman served a cup of ton, a tiny monkey poked its' head out from the satchel he had around his neck. His motor bike had a trailer which carried carried his tent and other necessities necessities for living on the road, including including a dog.

You seë she's scared of catching rabies. My wife and I have spoken to her about it a number of times and she also had a special presentation at school. Just recently Claire and I were checking out the back yard and we found a frog. Predictably she asked if she could touch him but first she wanted to know if it might have rabies. I explained to her that frogs don't get rabies and it was quite safe to handle him. Even though frogs are safe, some other animals are not, and we must be very cautious when dealing with them. It's important that we give out children specific rules to follow in this regard, especially considering that the number of animals found to have rabies in this area has increased dramatically over last year. So far in 1986 there has been an increase of 100 percent over the same period in 1985. What Is Rabies Rabies is a viral disease (infective organism) which affects the nervous systems of any warm blooded animal including man. Left to run its course, its is ALWAYS fatal.. It is usually spread through the bite of an infected animal. The virus is present in the saliva of the rabid animal, so that any transfer of saliva into the body, via biting, licking, scratching or even handling, where saliva may get into a scratch, wound or mucous membranes (mouth, eyes) may cause the disease to be passed on. Once the virus enters the body, it travels slowly along the nerves to the brain, where the real damage is done. The incubation period, or the time between introduction of the virus to the body, and the first appgtyance of- symptoms, varies greatly, from as short as ten days to a year or more, but usually two to eight weeks. The virus may be found in the saliva of the rabid animal for several days before symptoms begin, so even animals acting normally could pose a threat. Once symptoms begin, death follows inevitably in a few days. History Rabies was first diagnosed in Canada, in 1900, in white foxes in the Arctic. Eventually the disease was passed on to other foxes until the red fox population of Ontario became affected, By 1954 the first case of rabies in red foxes was diagnosed in Fort Albany, Ontario, and by 1958 it had spread throughout Ontario's fox population. Other animals which are likely to become rabid are skunks, bats, and raccoons, in that order. It's quite rare among squirrils, rats, mice and birds. Amongst domestic animals, dogs and cats head the list followed by cattle, sheep, horses etc. Dogs and cats, are most likely to pass rabies on to humans. The usual situation is that a rabid fox or skunk fights with an unvaccinated dog or cat which then becomes rabid and then bites its owner. How Can Rabies Be Controlled Five rules to follow.: . 1) Avoid wild animals 2) Avoid dead or sick animals 3) Report sick animals 4) Report bites or scratches 5) Have your animals vaccinated. In addition, control your pets, don't let them run at large especially at night when nocturnal animals such as foxes and skunks are active. If you see animals such as foxes, skunks, and raccoons near schools or populated areas during daylight hours,call your local animal control office. Treatment To Prevent Rabies If you or your child are bitten by an animal, wash the wound or affected area thoroughly under running water, being careful not to splash water in eyes or mouth. Make sure the wound is thoroughly cleaned and flushed using some soap or detergent, followed by the application of a disinfectant. Report to your doctor as soon as possible and he or she can advise whether rabies vaccine is required (by the way injections injections for rabies are now like a regular injection and consist usuaUy of five injections injections in the arm or hip. About 222 persons were treated last year in Durham but already in 1986 over 200 have had the injections). Where possible the animal involved should be confined for observations, so it is important important that the Durham Health Services Department is notified quickly. So, parents, make sure your children are aware of the dangers. They must stay away from wild or stray animals. For any further information on rabies call Durham Health Services at 723-8521.
