TB is Biggest Breaker-up of Homes Tuberculosis disrupts more families for a longer period of time than any other disease, says Dr. G. M. Rennie, each and Scugog Township M.O.H. Last year 2.500 Ontario people en- tered TB Sanatoria each for an aver- age of nine month's treatment. "To spend nearly a year in hospital is no picnic," he said. "It means tre- mendous disruption in the home. Even though treatment is free, there is heavy loss of income when the vie- Lim is the breadwinner. Many fa- milies are without the homemaker when the victim is the wife and mo- thera The hardships and heartbreaks in Ontario homes cannot be adequate- ly measured". "In spite of intense case finding ef- fort we are not making as much head- way against the disease as we would like. It scems we no sooner treat one case than another develops." "On the other hand, treatment has improved. Here remarkable strides have produced a shortened period of treatment with a dramatic reduction © "lin deaths." bo PANELIST NEW Betty Kennedy, Toronto women's commentator and former Ottawa newspaper writer, has been named as a regular panelist on' CBC-TV's Front Page Challenge.

Put Things In Perspective There is a motto: "God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference." This motto is applicable to the problem of tuberculosis in our com- munities. It is a problem that can be defeated and is being defeated, but the efforts of the considerate are be- ing hampered by the few misguided individuals who fail to be x-rayed. While they worry over cancer and heart trouble they fail to account to tuberculosis though it is indisputably true that more can be done to prevent and cure TB than either of these others. That the cure of tuberculosis can be effected is proved: The deathrate now it is less than 6. To those who are afraids you have more to fear by not being_.x-rayed, Early discovery means early recovery and almost cer- tain recovery when the disease is tuberculosis. That improvement is being hamp- -ered- is -also--proved:---- One-third of] those eligible do not bother to attend chest x-ray surveys. Many people over 40 years of age have never been x-rayed. The result is a sustained incidence of the disease. More Ont- ario people are going to sanatoria now The answer is not contained in fa- cilities. . The number of x-ray ma- chines in the province has expanded yearly, Physicians _have chest x-ray facilities. The government has in- stalled machines in 187 of our major hospitals. Referred clinics operate free of charge to the patients in 250 centres in Ontario. Industrial and community surveys provide free chest x-rays to plant and community popu- lations. Special consideration is pro- vided for industries with an occupa- tional hazard, such as mines and foundries, and this service includes chest x-rays. "Yet tuberculosis remains the chief killer among communicable diseases and 10 % of those who die hre Hiag- nosed shortly before, or after death. [n addition, of the 8,600 victims of the disease who enter sanatoria every year, 70% have moderately or far ad- vanced disease. The answer is contained in the at- titude of the public. There is to be another free clinic opportunity for all citizens of this vicinity "All of us should affirm, "God grant me the courage to change In Our Town... n Car & Truck Children & Traffic That more children are not injured by cars is a tribute to the patience and thoughtfulness of the drivers in Port Perry themselves do very litte to contribute certainly the children to their own safety.
