Extensive Damage Results from Freak Storm A sudden storm with high velocity winds caused considerable damage, in many homes and business places, when a large' limb was torn "from a tree néar the Home Of Mrs. Gray on Water Street. The lead in wires for the 'hydro were torn aday from the house, broke off insulator from the pole and carried down' othér wires which came in contact with the high voltage wires. "This sent a surge of extra high voltage through the wires and burned out' practically every ap- plinnce and light" which happened to be on at the tine. In fact some things like TV dets which were only plugged in and nat Switched on were also affected. a Many reports of burned.out appli- ances, TV sets, radios, furnace motors, refrigerator motors ete., have caused a good deal of inconvenience as well ng expense in certain sections of the town. The storm which came up very sud- denly, lasted only a few mimites but with such high winds that a number of branches were taken down, and no doubt other minor damages resulted.

This hag already heen a boon to the medical staff and the patients who have needed an, electracardiogram. | Prior to the purchase of this machine it was necessary to either go to Osh-! awa for this service, or have a doctor come from Oshawa, which was quite | costly to the patient. This service is now free to hospitalized patients who have Ontario Hospital coverage. This piece of equipment cost the Auxiliary $960, so once Again our funds are very low.

The Auxiliary funds are at a very low ebb and considerable time was spent discussing ways and means of | _ raising funds. In the near future' we shall have to have a money-rais- ing project, and we shall need the | support of every adult in the com- munity.
