10-Orono Weekly Times. Wednesday, May 9th, 1979 Kendal News A house can scarcely be a home Without a woman in it. Teacher blood drive successful Last Wednesday's Red Cross Blood Donor Drive was very successful. Just under 400 donors came to the Lion's Centre on Beech Ave. from 1 p.m. until 8:00 p.m. It was predicted that the number 'would go above 400 but polio shots given to high school students the day before meant that many regular donors were rejected. There was representation from most elementary schools in the area including , Vincent Massey, Lord Elgin, Ontario Street, Bowmànville Senior, the Pines, Orono- Lockhart, M.J. Hobbs, Mitchell's Mitchell's Corners, Newcastle- Newtonville, Enniskillen, Hampton and Waverley. Many teacher-donors gave for the first time and although they were required to rest longer afterwards, most found it a not unpleasant experience. Miss Marjorie Couch, retired teacher, past principal of Lord Elgin Public School declined to have her picture taken but assured me that she had come because the teachers were sponsoring the clinic. Thanks are extended here to the managers of local stores who gave donations of food for the tea room. Donations amounting to about ten dollars were received . from Dykstras, Miracle Mart, IGA A & P and Dominion Stores. Thanks also to Tom's and Sons IGA in Newcastle and Armstrongs in Orono, The Blood Driven was the . second event sponsored by , the Northumberland and Newcastle Women Teachers Federation in support of the International Year of the Child. Ëarlier this year Dr. Marcel lîinsbourne addressed addressed a large group of parents and techers concerning the treatment of hyperactive children. At the planning stage for the fall is a series of lectures for parents dealing With children. This will probably be a joint venture with other services for children. A big thanks again to all who supported the Red Cross Blood Donor Clinic - all volunteers, donors and merchants. merchants.
