on with envy in many other towns it is one of the facilities in which acton has led the county and also the recently members of the ys mens club completed improvements in the gymnasium by applying a new coat of patnt that has con siderably brightened the room also included in the clean op progran is the painting m the banquet room and other sections of the building the kitchen area has been improved by the addition of cupboards making additional space available for those preparing ban quels presently we understand plans are being formulated for alterations to the office section by

union mrc can avoid itus problem iw b- w reading record poor less than one canadian in every three was reading 0 book at the time of the last survey by the gallup organization this is ncl a situalion of which we can be proud nor is the fact that only 61 per cent of our citizens have ready access to public library service according lo the most recent government survey our reading record b almost any yard stick seems to be about the worst among western nahons save for the united states whatever the reasons for tins dismal picture we are fortunate that a move is underway to change it yjur first carrrrhan library week is to be observed from april 12 to 18 the week is actually ihe finishing touch to a two month nationwide wake up and read campaign 10 encourage more reading of alt kinds by canadians ll 15 good to see public spirited men and women from many fields tackling this prohkm in a practical way for the question of reading should not be left entirely to lib r ir 11115 and educators it is something with whii h tvery oneel us should be concerned the key to our democratic method of government is an informed public such a slate will remain but a dream if only 15 per cent of canadians over six years borrow books from their public library mother government survey finding this is nol nearly good enough for a country that is more than 95 per cent liter ale has more leisure time and a larger ni tional income than ever before the canadian library week program should remind us of the relationship between reading and knowledge and our traditions of freedom ll should help rekindle an 11 terest in those of us who have lost touri with books lo open the way 10 new worth while experience for others who have ne glected the reading habit canadian library week is drawing

inteiest of all of ui 22000 dead 22000 dead that kind of headline would undoubtedly carry with it a tremend ous element of shock yet that is the num ber of canadians who will die this year from cancel on ihe average about 60 canadians die of cancer each day more than two can ndiins every hour of ihe day and night camer kills more children between the age ot 5 and 14 and more women belween the ages of 24 and 54 thin other ds ease actually more people are cured of can cer now than ever before this is due o better diagnose and treatment facilities and the fact thai more people are reporting for treatment while cancers are m an early stage of development it seems naiural thai ihere should be an organized effort directed at combatting this disease the canadian cancer society was corporated m 1938 and n receni years the north halloo unit of the society was organ i2ed to direct the educational service and research phases of the pfogram locally the success of the north halton unit may be noted from the fact that m 1 95ft tho ladies service group prepared 2 600 cancer dressings 850 of which were distribute fe of charge to pihents ol thedistid thoy also prepired 108 ixki pids and 600
