January 8, 1975 Section Two Cancer Unit Discusses Ways Of Impro' A meeting of the Bowman- ville and District Unit of the Canadian Cancer Society was held at the home of Clarence Bell, President of East Cen- tral District, on Dec. 9th, 1974. A letter from Jack Brockie of the Mara-Rama Branch, Beaverton, was read describ- ing their agenda for the coming year, which proved to be a very busy and interesting one. Minutes of the last meeting were read andapproved with a couple of corrections; Mrs. S . McMurter is still President until September, 1975. A letter was read froa a Participation workshop held in Bancroft recently. Several ideas wer widely discussed and enlarged upon; such as how to improve cancer meet- ings to make then more interesting, so as to attract more volunteers t There were viorousdsussions of atti- tudes, ideas, best ways of conductîng meetings, improv- ing different offices etc. Publicty chairman Mrs. M. Kelly stated the only publicity business was a letter from headquarters stating she should use every resource possible for publicity. Transportation chairman Mrs. R. Brock stated there were very few trips to Toronto this month. Education chairman Mrs. R. Hansel informed us the new "Celly"' program is to be introduced into ahl schools. t was also suggested that a leaflet with a couple of phone OWMANVILLE ving Their numbers to be called when help is wanted fron the Cancer Society, to put in all professional offices and drug- stores. In the campaign report, Don Yeo felt letters to businesses asking for donations next year should be sent out before the end of the year. Two motions were put forward by Clarence Bell, seconded by Mrs. R. Brock and Mrs. Thompson, that a doctor be approached Gallery Photographer Records "Life as it Happens" Meetings to speak at a public meeting in February or March to be held in a church or hall; that Mrs. D.

Brock's, 9 Flett Street at 8:00 p.m. on January 13. 90,000 Needed for Addition to Oshowa Sheltered Workshop The Oshawa and District Association for the Mentally Retarded is renewing its campaign for the remaining $90,000 needed to complete the addition to the workshop of the Glenholme ARC Industries. The campaign is for capital funds as the operating ex- penses are met by grants from the United Way and from government sources. Theodesperately needed workshop'is nearing comple- tion but the necessary funds have not yet been raised. The extension willadd 7,000 square feet to the available workshop facilities at an estimated cost of $150,000. The workshop has two functions. As a training C HAMB E R centre, Glenholme ARC In- dustries provides each indiv- idual with specialized assist- ance and encouragement with the goal that each retarded person can learn to live and work in the community either independently or with mini- mal supervsion. As a shelter- ed workshop, it proviàes meaningful work for these people who may always re- quire special help to cope with their future. It is hoped that with this addition to the workshop, Glenholme ARC Industries will be self-supporting in the future from the profits on the products which are made and sold. Their products include wooden toys and pallets. They are also involved in printing operations and sub-contract assembly. At present there are 38 people provided with mean- ing ul work at Glenholme ARC Industries and it is estimated that in five years this number will be 100. Perhaps it would be a nice way to start out the new year by contributing to this very worthwhile project. We are advised that contributions are tax deductible and receipts will be provided for income tax purposes. It is also possible to spread your don- ation over two years if you wish.
