For this reason, we are pleased to mention that a six weeks course on home nursing will be conducted in Uxbridge by St. John Ambulance beginning on the evening of Thursday, Novem- ber 4th. Classes will be held at the Daheim Nursing Home, on Thursday evenings, from 7:30 to 9:30 p.m. for the six week period. Instruction will be handled by a registered nurse, and we are sure that much useful information will be presented for the benefit of those in attendance. Persons who are interested, can register on opening night. The fee for the six weeks course if $5.00. ' Persons in areas other than Uxbridge, who would like a course of this type, are advised to pass their requests on to Mrs. Roy Colville, R.N., Provincial Nursing Consultant, Ontario Council, St. John House, 46 Wellesley St. East, Toronto. The Ontario County Farm Safety Association carries on a safety program with farm people, and it is felt that a home nursing course could be most beneficial if home care is needed in the event of a minor accident. 700 BUSHEL POTATO CLUB Mr. Paul Kerry of Port Perry was the winner of the Ontario County 700 Bushel Potato Club in 1976, with a total score for yield, quality and dry matter of 478 out of a possible 500 points.
