Mrs. mats -- ee THE HAILEYBURIAN eish HAILEYBURY, ONTARIO THURSDAY APRIL 9th, 1953_ Subscription Rate: $2.00 per year Toto None Red Cross Head Attends Annual Meeting in Toronio The President of the local As- sociation of the Red Cross, Mrs. H G, Pickard attended the recent annual Red Cross meeting, On- tario Division, held at the Royal York Hotel in Toronto. Four hundred delegates were present and seventy-five representatives of associations across Ontario at- tended an executive dinner and meeting. Reports were heard from the chairman of each committee and Mrs. Pickard was particularly in- terested in the Swimming and Water Safety and Health Com- mittee reports aS they are the two branches in which the local group are so active. The year 1952 has shown a levelling off at about 14,000 of the number of awards won in the centres active in Swimming and Water Safety since the inception of the programme. But, there are indications that the number wili increase next year due to new programmes starting, particularly in the North and Northwestern parts of Ontario. The most im- portant event in this field is the recommendation of the XVIII International Red Cross Confer- ence in 1952 to have the back pressure-arm life method of ar- tificial respirationl taught to all Red Cross persons. big job for 1953. Mrs. Pickard was impressed by the report of the Junior Red Cross chairman. From kinder- garten in elementary schools to Grade XIII in secondary schools, it constitutes the largest youth organization in the world with over 41,000,000 members. They have a three-fold program -- Health, by individual and group effort; service to others by vols unteer service in the community and by a desire to contribute to the Crippled Children's Fund and international friendship by sup- port of the National Service Fund for Overseas Relief. "A vigorous program will be undertaken by the Red Cross this year, said Mrs. Pickard, "to ex- tend the blood transfusion ser- vice throughout Ontario." To date the plasma program has been met in its entirety for the armed forces in Korea, in Europe, in Canada and for the setting up of a stock-pile against any need for national disaster. Now, the or- ganization will proceed with an orderly expansion of the Free Blood Transfusion Service in Ontario. ---- A full-grown wolf in the Cana- dian wilds weighs on the average one hundred pounds.

Kelly, the Onta- rioio Minister of Mines announ- ced last week that the contract tor the construction of the new nuning access road to link Ma- tachewan and Kenogami on No, 11 Highway has been divided be- tween the Caswell Construction Company and Rockland Contract- ors Limited, on a mileage basis. Caswell will be responsible for the 8.9 miles at the western end of the road while Rockland will haye the remaining eight miles under its jurisdiction, Work on the road is expected to get under way almost imme- diately. Completion of the road will serve a large area of Northern Ontario and will fill a need which for a long time has been under government consideration. Not only will it give access to a terri- tory which has long had an im- portant part in Ontario's mining picture, but it will also be given extensive use as a public thoro- ughfare. It will serve as a direct link between Matachewan and 'other points on Highway No. 65 and northern points on Highway No. 11. Although the direct dis- tance between Matachewan and Kenogami is only 25 miles, it has been necessary to travel 100 miles to make the connection between the two highways at New Lis- keard. The eight miles at the western end of the road was com- pleted by the Department of Highways in 1948. The new road will pass through Gross, Blain, and Eby townships and will follow the existing Eby Township road to a junction with Highway 11 at Kenogami. Speci- fications call for a 22 ft, road sur- face on a 28 ft. base. | Galendar of Events Saturdayl and Sunday--Annua meeting Ontario Division Cana- dian Amateur Ski Association.

Tesephone Co. Pians Diai Phones in Kurai Areas The first rural dial system in Ontario will be installed by the Northern Telephone Company. With an eye to improving tele- phone communications in lem- kaming, the new dial system will serve approximately 200 subscri- vers new and old, now being handled directly through the New Liskeard exchange. Lhe $30,000 installation will be completed at no additional cost to the subscriber who will con- tinue to pay New Liskeard rates as formerly. Single and two-party lines will be available in the village of Belle Valley and near Dan Jarvis' Corner in the Milberta area. Other subscribers will be served by 10-party (maximum) lines. Subscribers outside these base- tate areas may secure single, two or four-party lines by paying ex- change mileage charges, if facili- ties are available. The new exchange service is an important step forward in the company's planning to cover adequately and efficiently all areas' served. Don McKelvie, general manager, said last week 'that the dial system with its shorter liness will improve trans- mission qualities and reduce main- tenance and the traffic through New Liskeard will be greatly reduced providing more efficient service for subscribers using the New Liskeard switchboard." As had been the policy, there will not be a toll charge from the dial-served sections to New Lis- keard. > Recent estimates show that the average Canadian telephone user, in paying his bill annually con- tributes $12 in taxes to the Fed- eral government. Every 24 hours, your heart beats 103,689 times; your blood travels 168,000,000 miles; you br8athe 23,240 times; you eat 3% pounds of food; and you speak 4,800 words.
