i Museum Curator Explains Importance of Handling with Care ' The exhibit on the hazards of handling historical items will be on display at the town hall in Bowman- ville until June 6. Mark Jackman, curator of the Clarke Township Musuem and Archives, said the dis- by Andrea Adair If you thought the later part of the 20th century is the most dangerous in terms of health risks from the products we use, you might be interested in dropping by the Town Hall in Bowman- ville. From now until June 6, a display on the health hazards hazards associated with historical historical artifacts will be on view courtesy of the Clarke Township Township Museum and Archives. Mark Jackman, curator of the museum, explained the purpose of the display is to make the public more aware of some of the dangers dangers historical pieces may present. He hastens to add that in many cases the hazards are more for museumologists, yet he still thinks the public should exercise some common common sense and caution when dealing with pieces they ORTHODOX CHRISTIAN REFORMED CHURCH Located north of Bowmanville on Concession-Four just west of Liberty Street. SUNDAY WORSHIP 10 A.M. and 7 P.M. WED. BIBLE STUDY: 7:00 P.M. REV. RICHARD C. SOWDER 263-8333 might not know much about. Many of the dangers he discusses are hazards that have been discovered in the past 10 years. Mr. Jackman started learning more about them from participating in archival archival conservation workshops. More and more museum people are becoming aware of dangers some artifacts may contain, he continued. One of those dangers, he mentions, is arsenic found in articles containing lead. Once the paint wears off lead toys, for example, arsenic arsenic begins to form on the surface. Over time, the arsenic arsenic builds up in a person's system and isn't filtered out. Plastics that contain cellulose cellulose nitrate are another hazard the curator cautions the public about. Cellulose nitrate, he says, was thought of as the "wonder "wonder material" in the early part of the 19th century and was used frequently in the production of plastic until the 1940's. It was produced cheaply but was a very unstable compound that could be found in film and imitation tortoise shell and ivory. Once the plastic ages and begins to break down, the article, such as a hair comb, becomes very unstable and may eventually spontaneously spontaneously combust. Mr. Jackman notes that play will hopefully encourage people to use common sense when handling articles they may be unsure of. Mr. Jackman is seen here explaining the hazards of old plastic hair combs to Mayor Marie Hubbard. of the conservation workshops workshops Clarke Museum regularly regularly holds to find out more about artifacts. Again, Mr. Jackman stressed being careful when handling historical items even though most of the dangers "are long term and are more of a hazard to mu- 155 Years of Community Service Down's _____ Anglican (tfljurclj Temperance Street, Bowmanville, Ontario SUNDAY, APRIL 30TH, 1989 ROGATION 8:00 a.m. Holy Communion : 11:00 a.m. Holy Communion Rector -- The Reverend Byron Yates B.A., S.T.B.

He mentioned that many people collect old bottles, not Knowing that the bottles were colour coded and each colour meant something different. different. For example, he said, a blue coloured bottle meant poison. Some such bottles owned by collectors could have residue residue on the lid. Mr. Jackman said a person would have no way of knowing if the residue residue was arsenic, strychnine or cyanide. He said a person could take that bottle, without' questioning what was once contained in it, and wash it out in the sink where dishes are washed or where vegetables vegetables are going to be cleaned for dinner. To avoid potentially dan- f erous situations like this, Ir. Jackman has some suggestions suggestions for people holding onto unknown historical items. First and foremost, use common sense. Wear gloves and filter masks when handling handling something such as an old bottle or something made with lead. If you are going to donate something to a museum, let the museum people clean it. If you have an item that you are a little unsure about, take it to a museum to let the curator take a look at it. He'll be able to tell if the plastic is breaking down in a hairbrush, for example, and should be able to advise you on the steps you should take in dealing with it.

There were times when we wondered whether we could develop enough concern, concern, conviction and cooperation cooperation to build the enthusiasm enthusiasm and energy in a volunteer volunteer team around strong leadership, to achieve a successful successful campaign. There was never any doubt that the money was there, but it takes a co-ordinated effort to get it. Now you know why we say fund raising is a "people" "people" rather than a "money" problem, and also why we consider fund raising as the "creative" edge of our enterprise enterprise society. Voluntary fund raising identifies leaders and workers workers who believe that our social social well-being is a product of mutual support of one another; another; and successful campaigns campaigns develop a feeling of pride and confidence in a "caring" community.
