Receipts From Christmas Seals Down Through the courtesy of the Ajax Hispital Executive, the January meet- ing_ of the Management Committee, Ontario County-Oshawa Tuberculosis Association was held in the Hospital Lounge. . / Reports were presented by Chair- men of various Committees, but the one'of most immediate interest to the Members and Guests was that of the Seal Sale Chairman, Mr. J. M. Low. Mr. Low reported that receipts from the campaign were still considerably short of last year's total, although comparing fairly well with those of the same date in.1956, However, costs of free Chest Clinics and special pro- '| jects were much greater than in 1966, and it is most necessary that the final total of the present campaign exceed that of last year. During 1957 the Association paid for the x-raying of more than 700 handlers in the City of Oshawa alone, as well as those other communities in the County. Dona- tions ure still coming in and anyone still wishing to make a contribution can do so at any time within the next two months, Dr. MacBean; Medical Director of the-new County Health Unit, spoke of his desire to have all milk distributors and producers receive a chest X-ray, and asked if the Association would undertaké to finance this much needed service, Members gave their unquali- fied approval to the project and agre- vey provided results of the campaign make it financially possible. Appointment of a new Chairman of Health Education was discussed, but as this is a very vital part of the As- sociation, it was felt further time should he given to contacting the right person to direct' this work in the County. It was to leave a selection to the Nominating Committee, which will meet in February to nominate members for the 1958 Executive. Members and Special guests present included -- Mr. D. L. Crozier, Port Perry, President, Mr. J, M, Low, Ux- bridge, Mr. C. Tuck, Claremont, Mr. William Parish, Mayor of Ajax, Mr. John Mills, Reeve, Ajax, Mrs. D. L. Gove, Ajux, Mrs. E. A.

Our Greenbank thanks to Rev. and Mrs, Braham for entertaining us so graciously for thls, our Annual meeting.

Rita 'Rodman read the story of Phoebe from our -study book and Leona Barry followed with the scripture reading from Ro- mans, The roll call was answered with the usual noble New Yesdr's re- solutions, i . Mr. Braham then presented the fol- lowing slate of officers for the next two year term: " President--Myitle Manns Vice-President--Clara Dowson Secretary--Rita Wilson Tréagarer--Rita Meader Visiting sfck and shut in friends-- Iréne Charter Group leaders are--Leona Barry, Alice Pearce, Betty Reader, Rita Rodman & Helen Redman, These officers were accepted and Discussions have been taking place about re-grouping some of our church communities.
