The council also appointed Bert Reil, Cathy Kloepfer and Robert Ryiey to the Bethany Park Board Committee until an election is held sometime in 1977. Approval was given for the county weed inspector to control the growth of noxious weeds within the Township. Council approved the Janet- ville Park Board consisting of chairman, James Effer, treasurer, Mark Malcolm and secretary Mrs. McComb. A resident of the Janetville subdivision asked the council to pass a bylaw restricting excessive use of water coming from the public water system which is supplied by wells. The resident referred to a water shortage in the sub- division during July and August of 1974 and suggested that the council regulate water when, it is used for filling swimming pools and watering lawns. The council carried a motion to seli the salvage rights to the three Township dumps to Mr. Thomas Slute for $1,400 for a period of one year. The council voted against renewing the Sandaraska Trailer Park's licence f0 operate in 1976. Before the licence is issued the council is seeking legal advice on whether the park conforms to the zoning bylaw or if it will have f0 be rezoned from agricultural use. A detailed report by Mr. Don Venton on the spring run off damage to roads in the Pontypool subdivision and his proposais for solving the problem in the future was adopted by council. Council approved the rezon- ing of a lot 300 ft. by 500 ft. on lot seven in the eigth con- cession for an auto and farm machinery repair shop. A $300 deposit from the owner of the property, Mr. Gary Semczyszn was requested by the council for security. The council also approved By Lîz Armstrong Off en the best medicine for a patient who ha s undergone surgery for cancer is ta be reassured by someone in the same boat who has fuliy recovered from the disease after treatment. This seems ta be especially true for women who have suffered the trauma of a mastectomy, which is the remaval of a cancerous breast through surgery. Since 1973, the Ontario division of the Cancer Society has stepped up their efforts ta beip breast cancer victims back on the road ta recovery by having 'mastectomies' visit them in the haspitai or home ta offer practical information and advice. Last Tuesday evening at Triniity United Church, mnore than 100 people attended the local Cancer Society's Annual Meeting ta hear four women from, Toronto present a skit about the society's service ta mastectamy patients. A skit about breast cancer? Sounds unlikeiy, but the light- hearted programn entitled "The One-Sided Review' was an excellent medium-through which ta present the service ta patients approach ta helping breast cancer victims. 1"We are four maids, Who have iost a breast, To help others, We'll do aur best." Through rhyme, prose and demonstration, the quartette conveyed plenty of infor- mation about hpw they and others like them, can offer mucb needed emational support and. practical assist- ance ta those who have recently undergone surgery. AIl four women are fine examples of th'e power of positive thinking, and proof that breast cancer victims can resume! living healthy, active and useful lives after proper care and treatment. Recently, under the dir- ection of Mrs. Jpan Mann, the idea came ta Bowmanville and since February, two mastectomees have visited eight patients through the service. There are several rules governing the program that ensure that the volunteer 1mastectomee' will not in- advertantly upset the patient she has set out ta heip. First, the doctor in charge of the case must give written permission before the visit can occur, and then a simple the rezaning of a lot owned by Mr. Nick Carchidi if an entrance can be secured fromn the County of Victoria and-he pays a $300 deposit. Council allowed a 50 acre severance of land in the south-east quarter of lot 12, Concession Two owned by VanDam, VanWiergen and Fajt. A one acre severance in lot nine, Concession One was given ta Mr. and Mrs. Geraid Fisk at the council meeting. The council voted in favor of giving $25 ta the winner of the Miss Manvers, "Sweetheart of the Fair" contest at the Millbrook Fair fromn June 18-20. .Council dîscussed develop- ment of the road on the west limît of lot 15, Concession Five as a possible, entrance toaa bouse thaf a family wants ta build in the area. Gravel developers will be allowed ta operate from 6 ar. ta 7 p.m. on ýix days of the week but not on Sunday, the council decided. A. motion ta advance $2,500 for building materials for an extension f0 the Township Hall was carried. form is filled out and forward- ed ta the Cancer Society headquarters in the district. The visiting volunteer then arranges a suitable time to go ta the haspital, and while there, she's encouraged ta be cheerful, tactful, sympathetic and above all, a good listener during ber visit with the patient.' Personal camparisons of aperatians are taboa, and the volunteer is instructed ta keep aIl information offered by the patient confidential. She's also cautioned not ta stay toa long in case the patient gets tired. The volunteer alsa takes alang' a useful information boaklet ta the hospital ta leave with the patien t. It cantains many practical tips, inciuding a list of stores where a women VM4 RU£L ý'ýThe Friendly F Iorist BRADSHAW Is Coming Mvay 8, 1976 East Location No. 2 Highway can purchase a permanent prosthesis or breast form. The vol unteer also gives the patient her name and phone number, and assures her thaIt she canget in touch again for a home visit, or ta accompany ber ta a store ta purchase the prosthesis. If a patient requires further treatment after surgery, such as a cobalt bomb series, the volunteer wiil be available ta go with ber. Though the volunteers prefen ta visit the patient while she is in the hospital, home visits can also be arranged and periodic follow- up calîs are made ta ensure that recovery is coming alang well. One of the keys ta complete recovery is regular exercise, sinceorne-uscle tissue from the arm is usually removed during modified and radical mastectomies. By keeping up with the past-aperative routine, the women can grad- ually regain full use of their arms and resume such activ- ities as tennis, golf and bowling. Following the presentation by the 'four maids' the meeting was thrown open ta questions from the audien-e. Three Memorial Hospital physicians, Drs. Singal, Hub- bard and Sylvester were on hand ta answer queries and expiain treat ment techniques. Further information about the service ta mastectomy patients may be obtainied by phoning Mrs. Joan Mann at 623-5174 or getting in touch with the local Cancer Society.

Though some of the poetry in their revue didn't follow traditional rhyme schemes, the message was clear: That breast cancer patients can be helped back on the road to recovery with assistance from others who have been successfully treated in the past. This part of the program was followed by an informative question and answer period which featured a panel of three doctors from Memorial Hospital. -Photo by Liz Armstrong
