Page Four THE COLBORNE EXPRESS, THURSDAY, JANUARY 6th, 1955 FEWER COLDS FOR CHILDREN! Preventive Medicine has raised the standard of health in Ontario! jsary < of the Hospital for Sick Children is more than a milestone where we hestitate a moment, looking back over a record of ever-Increasing service to the children of the Provinee. he para a this c( One of the most famous medical laboratories <n North America is maintained kg the Hospital far §tak CkUaress, in which observations made in the Hospital for Sick Children on the treatment of tens ©f thousands of cases form an important part. The far-reaching influence of the growth of this branch of medical practice can easily be shown in figures--the records of firealtii Departments supply convincing proof. The fact that your children are relatively a great deal healthier than those of sixty years ago is due in no small degree to the progress in medical knowledge made possible by the opportunities afforded by the Hospital for Sick Children. Vaccination, toxoiding, etc., commonplace today, had to be proved effective by the actual observation of countless cases. Children of every race and creed are admitted ftp this Institution, regardles of circumstance. Their ticket of admittance is their need. Their treatment, <* too, is governed by their need alone--not by their abSity or inability to pay. Fixed grants made by the Province and Municipalities do not provide for the features requiring extra expense which our progressive child specialists prescribe. Each year there is a deficit which ire ask charitable people to meet. This year the shortage is $70,000.00. Every dollar is urgently needed so that the great Work may go on. No amount is too small ... none ' > large. Give $1.00, $2.00. $5.00, or $100.00--what- _ever your circumstances justify--but please give__ something. Send your donation to the Appeal Secretary.

Convalescence should be a long process for the discharged tuberculosis patient, if he is to remain ex-TB. Trying to take up his activities just where he left off, carrying oh his social and business life as he did before his period of treatment, won't keep him on his feet. After the San, there must still be a long period of gaining strength and this can be done only by following the doctor's orders as to diet, rest and general way of of life. One of the chief causes of absenteeism in school or industry is the common cold. This troublesome disease could be avoided by staying away from people who already have one, since the germs are usually spread by coughing and sneezing without covering the nose and momh with a disposable tissue. Building up resistance with a good basic diet will help, too, to ward off the cold. Canada's Food Rules offer an adequate diet for the average family. She : "Well, what excuse have you for coming home at this hour of the night?" He : "Well, my dear, I was playing golf with some firends." She : "What; at 2 a.m.?" He: "Sure, we were using night clubs." There is enough in the world for everyone's need, but not enough for everyone's greed.--Buehman. STUDENTS CONDUCT SCHOOL ON SAFETY In a Kirkland Lake school in addition to patrol boys to help their fellow pupils to and from school in safety, a traffic court has been established. Operated by the students themselves with a minimum of control either from the principal, teachers or the police (who started the project), sentences to violators mainly include writing a disclipinary statement 50, 100 or 500 times, or they may be required to clean blackboard brushes at recess. Motorists who fail to respect the school boy patrol usually get a visit from members of the patrol and receive an explanation of what the boys are trying to do. Patrol boys, "magistrates", "crown attorneys" and others are rewarded with tickets to theatres, hockey games and other entertainment. Not a single school child accident has been recorded since the system was introduced. BREAKING THE FAST With the children back to school, their morning meal shoiild be a good substantial one that will carry them through their studies and other activities. An adequate breakfast consists of fruit juice, wholegrain cereal egg and toast and milk or hot cocoa. The lunch they carry to school must be just as nourishing -- preferably including sandwiches which should have a nourishing filling such as meat, egg, fish or cheese, with, of course, milk as a drink. PERSONAL ITEMS Every once in a while we have to remind our readers that we like them to send in the names of visitors, etc. each week. We try to collect as many of these items as possible ourselves but of course, we are only human and can only make a note of those we see. If we are away for a weekend we must depend entirely on our readers for these news items. Your little item of visitors may seem unimportant to you. So much so that you hardly deem it worthwhile sending in for publication. Yet how many have noticed that the personal column is one of the first items a reader turns to upon receiving the paper. This is not done simply for curiosity's ?ake, but because your friends take a genuine pleasure in reading that friends or relatives have been to visit you. So send those little personal items along each week no matter how unimportant they might seem. We enjoy receiving them and your friends enjoy reading them, NEWSPAPER IS LOGICAL PLACE Here's a good advertisement which is taken from an exchange. An editor and a merchant were discussing the virtue of bill-board advertising. The merchant contended that more people read the bill-board than the newspaper. After a lengthy conversation in which neither man would give in. the men parted. The next week the merchant came tearing down to the newspaper office wanting to know why the obituary of his wife's mother was not in the paper, especially after he had seen the copy was taken to the newspaper office. "Well," said the editor, "I knew you wanted the obituary read by the people so I took it out and nailed it on the bill-board." --Just think it over. A nation at peace within itself will bring peace to the world.--Buehman. CHURCH SERVICES Sunday, January 9th ANGLICAN Rev. R. E. Lemon, L.Th..
