United Way Supported The central principle upon which the V.O.N. operates is that every individual has the right to co-ordinated and comprehensive health care and that health care can be provided efficiently and effectively effectively in the familiar surroundings surroundings of home. A second principle which they uphold is the importance of the individual's individual's responsibility for and participation in his-her own health care. These principles translate into a team approach to health care in the home. The V.O.N. works in partnership with various levels of government by bidding on the provision of nursing services in the Home Care program run by the Durham Durham Regional Health Unit in the Welfare and Family Services Services run by the Durham Region Department of Social Services. They also work with the Federal Department of Veterans Affairs in providing reassessment and nursing follow-up to veterans.

The warm and expert nursing care given includes performing injections, injections, changing surgical dressings, providing hygiene, skin and foot care, performing respiratory treatments and advising and supporting family members.

An auto show like Markham Markham 85 is an appropriate setting for the music of Elvis Presley. "The King" was an avid collector of cars. Bill Cann notes that his favorite set of wheels was a hand made, Italian Stutz. Elvis also became famous famous for giving away cars to friends and the first $5,000 bonus he made from his recording recording career went towards towards a pink Cadillac for his mom.

Mr. Jeff Long, D.J. provided excellent dancing music for the guests present. Carol Ann, during the evening, welcomed all those present and recounted some of the high-lights of her parents' 40 years of happily married life. Earl, on behalf of himself and his slightly used bride, also expressed appreciation to those present and their gratitude to the family for arranging the evening. A delicious lunch was also served later in the evening. One of the interesting sidelights was the display of memorabilea collected for ihe occasion such as the bride's wedding dress, a collection of photography over the years and the multitude of cards of congratulations. Best wishes to Earl and Jean for many more happy anniversaries.

Closer to home, there will be a benefit concert including including Billy Cann at the Molson Park, in Barrie, where funds raised by a number of Canadian musicians will go towards helping the victims of the recent tornado. Although Billy Cann looks like Elvis and sounds like Elvis, he is quick to add that he keeps considerable distance between the rock and roll idol he portrays and himself. "I'm in no way trying to replace replace the man. There was only one Elvis and there will only be one Elvis," he said. I could probably make a million or two from this idea, but it's such a good one that it really ought to be shared with humanity. I'm referring to a revolutionary revolutionary new scheme for feeding children. It's based on the fact that nobody under four feet tall can resist a popsicle. This, I discovered last weekend as the three neighbourhood two and three-year-olds were lounging in lawn chairs slurping frozen apple juice on sticks.

Your generosity in donating space for articles is greatly appreciated not only by me but also by the staff and students of B.H.S. "The B.H.S.

But my idea is to use the popsicle as a method of ensuring that picky eaters get all the minimum required dosage dosage of vitamins and minerals. Where does it say that two-year-olds have to eat everything from a plate? If they choose to eat nothing except McDonald's hamburgers, hamburgers, chips, and popsicles, popsicles, why fight them? If the two-year-old doesn't like vegetables, it should be easy enough to pop some broccoli in the blender, add a little water, and freeze the whole concoction concoction into a popsicle. With a little ingenuity, ingenuity, it should be simple to rustle up carrot carrot popsicles, roast beef popsicles, and even spinach popsicles. Or, perhaps, an entire four-course meal could be blended into one nutritious meal on a stick. It sounds like a good idea to me -- one which Dr. Spock will probably feature in his next volume volume on child care. The only drawback is the question of whether kids will eat popsicles the color of green algae or carrots. Or will they object to the fact that the popsicles do not contain 75 per cent sugar? Well, perhaps there are still a few bugs to be ironed out yet.
