A further appeal is being launched to bolster this fund. Possibly a review of the work which is carried on by the Christmas seal fund is in order. The TB Association undertake to X-ray all school children and operate the' mobile X-ray which travels from community to community. This is a precaution to insure that any cases of TB will receive early treat- ment and serves the two-fold purpose of helping to prevent the spread of the disease and to insure recovery of those who have TB. The Christmas seal fund is also used to help re- habititate those who have received treatment and can return to regular life again. The money raised in Ontario County is spent for Ontario County residents, only. The Christmas Seal fund has nothing to do with the Federal Governments policy of bringing in a certain number of refugees for treatment in the TB sanituriums. This project is the Cana- dian Governnient's attenipt to assist the under privileged countries and so to further the cause of World Peace, Many of us who are healthy and busy are inclined to forget that TB is still a dread disease; that it still re- quires the constant surveillance of medical profession to prevent its spread throughout our communities Your dollors can keep the Victory on ; Port Perry Council News - Minutes of a Regular Meeting of Council of the Village of Port Perry, held in the Municipal Office Satur- day, January 23, 1960 at 10 a.m. PRESENT -- Reeve J.

In length of service no other Ontario Hydro Commissioner save Adam Beck, surpasses this record. (Continued on Back Page) The Perennial 'Problem Every year wd are faced with the same old problem--what to do with the snow which plays havoc with our "modern" transportation? In the days of our forefathers snow was no hindrance to travel--in fact in many cases travelling was easier in the winter. Lots of wooded areas pre- vented the drifting which bothers us so much today, and snow had a ten- dency to level out the rough spots and make for smoother riding. Not so today! That beautiful white stuff can be most aggravating under the wheels of your car. It costs the taxpayer thousands of dollars each year trying to get it off the roads, and few people are happy with the results of the effort. Some contend that too much salt is used resulting in much damage to cars, other contend that too little salt is being used re- sulting in heavy going especially for cars parked along side of streets. Still others think that far too much money is spent in an unorganized ef- fort that accomplishes very little for the motorist. Dozens of ordinary citi- zesn have expressed ideas which they are gure will solve the problem--cer- tainly something new should be tried. We are fione of .us very happy with present conditions. W. J. Heron, Brock, 1960 County Warden Although five other candidates were nominated for the offce of Warden for Ontario County, William J. Heron, reeve of Brock Township, was elected by acclamation.

Heron, Brock Twp.; Howard Mc¢Mil- lan Reach Twp.; Sherman Scott, Pick- ering Township; Earl Dowswell, Ux- bridge Township; Anson Gerrow, Scu- gog, Township; John McCorie, Village of Vickering.

Support Health Week The Executive Secretary of the Canadian Chiropractic Association to- day announced the chiropractic pro- fession's support of Health Week in Canada, which will take place from January 31st to February 6th. "Health Week sponsored by the Health Lea- gue of Canada, should be artively supported by all groups interested in the welfare of the Canadian people", said Donald C, Sutherland, D.C. "Health is not something that can be remembered once a year like a birth- day and then forgotten. If we active. ly follow the rules of health every day of the year, we will live to see more Health Weeks. Surveys by the Tor- onto Nutrition Council have indicated that large percentages of school child- ren received inadequate nutrition. This problem cannot be solved with- out the full co-operation of parents whose responsibility it is to become familiar with the rules of proper nu- trition and apply them in the home. Good posture, proper body balance and correct spinal alignment," concluded Dr. Sutherland, "are valuable aids to any Health Program".
