--_-- Ted Dakin is typical of thousands of Canadian fire fight- res who help combat muscular dystrophy, not only by raising funds for research, but also by taking a personal interest in MD's young victims. One such victim, 12-year-old Kirk Clou- - thier, spends a happy morning with Ted on a tour of the local fire hall and forgets for a while that he lives under the shadow of muscular dystrophy. (Photo Ian Sampson) Above And Beyond The Call Of Duty Every once in a while you'll hear someone say "Why would anyone want to be a steeple- jack?" Or they might say it about a policeman or a miner or a fire fighter. People who ask questions like this can't understand what makes some men undertake dangerous and unpleasant jobs. Nevertheless there always seems to be someone to do such jobs -- and high rates of pay aren't the incentive, by. any means. Perhaps the incentive comes from the challenge that such jobs offer. They are not easy. No one forces you to become a steeplejack or a min- er or a policeman or a fire _vasses, and by numerous other fighter. Men who take on these jobs are volunteers--Ilike sold- iers who come forward and of- fer to take part in a dangerous mission, Basically ,these men "are men with pride. Pride in their a- bility to tackle the tougher jobs. Knowing that they can do it is part of their reward. They are dependable, They are good people to have around. It's only natural that we should find such men doing other tasks above and beyond the call of duty. Take the fire fighter for ex- ample. There are about 40,000 of them in Canada, both pro- fessional and volunteer. Many of them spend large amounts of their spare time trying to help the unfortunate children who are victims of muscular dystrophy. The way they go about this is to raise money by means of benefit sporting ev- ents, by house-to-house -can- methods. They don't do this casually. They are well or- ganized, In fact, their inter- national union has pledged it- self to the support of MD re- search until the disease is van- quished, To date the fire figh- ters of this country have raised upwards of a million and a half dollars for medical research: For Better ealth, Share Your Wealth Give To The Hospital Fund 4 Cu | 2 HS tli baile sida dodsatosbotsct sae AL ryt a ob Cd . TE) - ard * HAS 12.0 o' 5 + Scores of teams of research scientists in "eéVéry major me- dical research centre and uni- versity in Canada have been put to work by this money-- advancing the frontiers of knowledge and bringing close the day when some real hope can be given to the victims of this relentless disease. Research into muscular dy- strophy is not the easiest kind of research. There may be none more difficult. The cause of the disease and the means 'of controlling it or curing it have been eluding the best medical brains for decades. If any task were to be called a chal- lenge, this is it. : It's no wonder than that the chief allies of the research scientists are the fire fighters. This is their kind of job. Very tough; very demanding. So if one day a fire fighter happens to call at your house asking - you to help with the battle against muscular. dys- trophy, just take a good look at him and you'll see a man who's busy with his own job but can still find time to help his fellow citizens. The local Fire Department will also be collecting for Mus- cular Dystrophy again = this year as they have in the past years. Canisters for this col- election will soon be in the lo- cal stores. This is a very worthwhile cause and your firemen urge you to help by contributing whatever amount you feel you can spare.
