Lansdowne St. E, Peterborough FRESH AIR AND COFFEE BREAKS REDUCE HIGHWAY ACCIDENT RISK Rest before starting out on a long trip, don't try to drive too far in a day, stop for regular coffee-breaks on the highway, make sure you are psychologically fit to drive, and you stand a pretty good chance of spending an accident-free year. This advice comes from R. B. Baillie, president of the continent-wide American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators and Commissioner of Motor Vehicles for the Province of Manitoba. Mr. Baillie, who is also chairman of the committee on motor vehicle administration of the Canadian Highway Safety Conference said that the driver's state of mind and fatigue after many hours spent at the wheel are contributing factors to most highway accidents. Mental impulses and fatigue are behind a great many current violations of traffic rules and errors which cause accidents, Mr. Baillie says.

NOTICE TO CATTLE OWNERS The County of Northumberland has been designated a supervised area as of April 1st, 1957, under the provis- ns of the Brucellosis Act, 1956. As result: 1. Every female calf, except those in listed herds, must be vaccinated after the age of four months but before attaining the age of 11 month|. 2. Cattle owners may have their calves vaccinated by the veterinarian of their own choice. 3. If the veterinarian chosen has 1 agreement with the Minister, and every practitioner has had an opportunity, the cost of vaccination will be borne by 4he Ontario Department of Agriculture. 4. Certain restrictions apply to the movement of female cattle over'" 11 months of age from non-supervised areas into supervised areas; so consult your veterinarian before moving cattle across county boundaries. 5. Every cattle owner who fails to have his calves vaccinated, or who contravenes any other provisions of the Act may be charged with an offence. safety expert cautions motorists against driving when they feel sleepy, worried, upset or preoccupied. Driving on today's congested highways is North America's favorite outdoor sport, so you must keep in good shape at all times," Mr. Baillie says. "Long drives slow up your reflexes, overtax your nervous system^ reduce your seeing ability unless you stop now and then for some exercise and cup of coffee of some other non- cohollc beverage. "It is good to engage in conversation, but always keep your eyes on the highway, and avoid arguing. Allow fresh air to circulate through the and do not insist on doing all the driving when your wife or another licensed driver can replace you for a while. Let weather and road conditions govern your speed even if you are not exceeding posted limits. And remember it is better to reach your destination late than never." Drive Carefully: Government figures covering all provinces but Quebec show that in 1955 traffic fatalities totalled 2,084 and traffic injuries 49,- EASTER SEAL CAMPAIGN MARCH 21 TO APRIL 21 Rotarians. Lions, Kiwanians an< the rest of the service club members always seem to be busy attending luncheon meetings and conventions and playing practical jokes on one another in hotel lobbies. But . . . behind all their "madness" is a method. And for some 35 years they have been so dedicated to helping the handicapped child that they have become, as one official of the Ontario Society for Crippled Children put it, "the backbone of our work". Without the backing of Ontario' 218 service clubs and their all-out promotion of the annual Easter Seal sale, the Society and its great and complex work could not function. It was back in Windsor, Ont., in 1822 when a few physicians and surgeons with the members of 10 service clubs became appalled at the number of unattended cases of crippled children in Ontario and decided to do something positive about it. They formed the Ontario Society for Crippled Children which today needs $700,000 to properly look after its growing case load of some 11,000 handicapped youngsters across the prov- Months before Easter, in every city, village and hamlet where a service club exists, members start whipping up enthusiasm as only service club men can do. Using Easter Seals at their media, they flood the mails with them and tirelessly follow through with their local canvasses until the final goal is reached. Service club members comprise nearly 100 per cent of the Society's directorate ... the committees of the Society's five summer camps are ser-club members . . . the orthopaedic surgeons who spend untold hours operating on crippled children's legs id arms are mostly service club Small wonder, then, that the ser-ce clubs and Society operate in a sort of partnership and that the whole affair is dedicated to a rehibilitation program second to none in the world.
