This information was reheased at a meeting of the Durham Region Board of Health held Thursday. According to Councillor Kenneth E. Lynhl, a member of the Durham Board, there were no reported cases of encephalitis in Durham hast summer and there is no particular reason to beieve that there wilh be cases this summer. "On the other hand" Mr. Lyalh stated in a news rehease over the weekend "There can be no guarantee that cases wihl not devehop and the Durham Board of Healtb bas recommended tbat the matterý of a mosquito spraying pro- gram receive broad consider- ation from eected officials, representatives from the Ontario Ministry of the En- vironment and members of the Board of Health henýre ite Regiori of Durham. The virus of St. Louis Encephahitis, which infects the brain, is spread from its source to man by tbe cuhex mosquito. It is primarily a bird-mosquito infection and man becomes accidentally involved when he is bitten by an infected mosquito. The disease is not transmissible from man to man. Danger of the infection being spread is inicreased when the number of cuhex mosquitos rises- and tbis depends on weather conditions in May, June and througb the summer. The practical control of the disease carrying mosquito is accomplished by spraying directed against tbe mosquito harvae in stagnant and pond- ing waters. The Ontario Ministry of Health is adviing tbose mun- icipahities having one or more cases of St. Louis Encephalîtis last summer to undertake spraying programs. Toronto bad 2 cases,, North York 1, Windsor 50, Niagara 6, Labo-4, Hmtn2 and Kent 1. Four persons whose' deatbs were confirmed of dying from the disease were from 45 years ohd to 74 years old. According to a statement made by Dr. Gordon K. Martin, executive director of Ontario's Ministry of Heahth, at a special meeting at Queen's Park for medical officers of beahth, hast sum- mer was the first time that St. Louis Encephalitis struck Ontario on sucb a large scale. Dr. Martin stated the suspect- ed cause- was an increase in the number of disease-bearing mnosquitos whicb tbrived on record bigh temperatures and frequent rainstorms. "We intend to take 'every precaution in case the 1975 incidence turns out not to be a freak," Dr. Martin said.

An Oshawa funeral director, Donald Spiers, told a seminar ~ oprecently at the Oshawa eneraî Hospital that funeral costs had risen from an average of $554 in 1968 to between,$900 and $950 in 1975. In 1972, funeral costs bad risen 10 per cent to $774 according, to thp Dominion Bureau of Statistics, Mr. Spiers tohd the group that gathered to listen to lectures on the care of the dying and the family. Mr. Spiers was one of two main speakers who opened the series of seminars to b e held in the hospital by the Interdisci- pinary- Planning Commîttee each Monday nigbt from now until March 15. Sherry Basin, a lawyer and teacher at Durham Colege, also spoke on hast Monda's topi, prejparation for death M. SDers disaLyrees with people who claim that cre- ation is cheaper than earth- burial., There are costly stages in the process that gradually add up., The statement of death and a medical statement of death are the first steps in the process, which head into the next of kmn giving directions as to the mode of disposition, he said. Af ter these ptreliminary steps are taken te next of kmn is faced with deciding whether to bury the deceased in the family plot at a cost of $40 or if a cremation 'plot for $100 migbht be dloser to what they had in mind. The actual cost of cremnation is $90 for anybody over 10 years old, Mr. Spiers said, with an additional $10 charge to return the ashes to tghe famihy after the cremation. SMost people have a traditional funera h service ý receding the cremation. hen the ashes are returned- to the family they can decide whether tob ury them in un spaces on the crematorium 9 rounds for between $100 and 250 or to bury them in niche spaces at a cost between $250 and $750, he said. Mr. Spîers said that most people are not prepared to accept death or to even talk about it. "Because the average per-. son makes funeral arrange- ments onhy about once in every 15 years it's not surprising that the majority in our society are not well informed on such matters, " he said. If death were looked on from strictly a physical viewpoint the necessity of a funeral couhd be questioned and d is- poing of a body would be smple. sBut Mr. Spiers said the emotional'needs of the mourn- ers had to be met, "Needs too deep to be ignored."~ Ze are looking at funeral practices as they meet the, needs- existing in the mourners." "There's the need of support from others. At no time does, man need an expression of this supporting fehlowsbip more I than at this timne of mourning. " Wills are Important Mr. Basin told thegathering at the bospital that often a wi1 is the most important docu- ment a person ever signs and if it is not clear it can, be dangerouis. He warned that the legal meeting of a word in a will can be far different from the word's meaning in everyday use. The best way to deal wit a wihl, he said, was to contact a lawyer. Everyone should have a wil prepared, because anybody can die unexpectedly and the cost of a wihl is moderate and - Bowmanville's Headquarters for the very latest in haîr styling is pleased to announce that they use and, retail REDKkEN products.
