Auto Canada, a museum complex jlanned for by the Canadian - Photograph - Canadian Automotive Museum The Canadian Automotive Museum presently located at 99 Simcoe Street South in Oshawa is planning to expand next year. A four acre site was acquired in 1978 on the south side of Highway 401 west of Oshawa so that eventually the Simcoe Street location, a former automobile showroom, will be sold. The mluseum's Board of Directors has been getting ideas from ail over the world for the 60,000 square foot museum complex they have planned and they'l1 need three million dollars to pull it off. The resuits of the museum's intensive study were revealed at the launching of its fund raising campaign at a Hotel Toronto luncheon on April 25, 1979. Government officials, businessmen (and a few businesswomen) and media representatives met in a room containing somne automobiles fromn the museum's present collection. Among themn a 1911 Ford Sports Roadster and a 1911 Carter car purchased three years ago for $35,000. and which according to one of the museumn directors, Lloyd Metcalf, is their best car. Also admired by the men in attendance were a 1972 Pan- Rlntiques By Mary Ann Warkman tera and a 1959 Chevrolet Corvette. The Museumn houses 65 cars in its collection, 25 being owned by the others on a long term blan. Just to put the luncheon crowd in the proper mood for the event (besides the wine and champagne served), were automobile ads on the wall fromn the COUNTRY GENTLEMEN of September 1937 and COLLIER'S, THE NATIONAL WEEKLY with members of the Oshawa chapter of the S.P.E.B.S.Q.S.

A slide presentation showed car travel of the past and the unique aspects of the Cana- damn Automotive Museum's Auto Canada. The National Museums of Canada came up with the store fronts shown in the sldes which will form village streets depicting life as it was circa 1898.

(576-1222) The museum as it presently exists is open daily except Easter, Christmas and New Year's, Day. Besides the variety of automobiles on dispflay there is a souvenir shop of mementoes and books related to the automobile as well as photography and memorabilia displays depict- ing the frustration and fun of early transportation which is most fittîng in the "Motor City". The Museum was initiated in September 1963 by some Oshawa businessmen who re- ceived a generous donation from a benefactor who prefers to remain anonymous. Thus the museum is able to maintain its collection and buy further automobile arti- facts. There is an admission charge and the Museum offers free parking. Health Unit Says Scabies Under'Control The Durham Region Health Unit reports that there's no cause for alarm over the cases of scabies reported at two, local schools. Dr. Jean Gray, medical health officer, told the States- man recently that scabies is a contagious skin disease which is caused by a mite which burrows into the skin and lays eggs. This causes the skin to blister and become itchy. Dr. Gray said the mites do not breed outside the body in garbage or other areas. She said scabies is not a major disease and she placed it in, the saine category as poison ivy in termis of its seriousness. "It's not unusual, we ve had it before, " she said. Schools outside of the North- umberland Newcastle area have also reported cases of this disease recently. At Clarke High School, 10 children out of 600 had been excluded from classes due to scabies while at Bowmanville High School, four out of 1200 had last week been excluded. For treatment of this condition, the health unit recommends that the family doctor be contacted im- mediately.1 Therapy for scabies usually means taking a hot bath using plenty of soap and then covering the body with lotion or ointment given by the doctor. When children have the disease they are asked to stay home from school until they have been successfully treat- ed. 'It's well under control and nothing to get alarmed at", Dr. Gray said. A lunch-hour get-together at Strathaven last Care volunteers, seniors and Strathaven staff meet week. About once every six weeks, Community for lunch. Lunch Out Pro gram Becoming Popular With Local Seniors 1One of the most enjoyable of the many services that Community Care provides for the seniors of the Town of Newcastle is its Lunch-Out Program. About once every six weeks, a group of seniors and volunteers go out for lunch together at Strathaven Nursing Home. The volunteers provide the transportation, and everyone provides the comraderie. While enjoying the delicious lunch served by the staff at Strathaven, the Community Care volunteers and seniors really get a chance to get to know each other. Many of the seniors who participate would otherwise have few opportunities to meet new people. Another bonus of the program is that the seniors and volunteers can visit with the residents of the nursing home. New faces and old acquaintances alike exchange a friendly greeting, and everyone's, day is a littie brighter. The visitors are also invited to join in the programs for the residents. They especially enjoy the singsongs led by Arlene Ayre and Pat Prout and the craft program taught by Sara Elliot. Ail who participate in the Lunch-Out Program look forward eagerly to each outing. Community Care is grateful to Strathaven Nursing Home for providing this opportunity.
