Pat LEER E ACE COUPEE EEIC ETE Work found for 1,200 in 1986 Dear Editor: With my final days as CECS supervisor winding down, I feel a sense of urgency to thank local employers for their sup- port. During my two years with the Canada Employ- ment Centre for Students program there has been Art show Dear Editor: Thank you for your paper's excellent coverage of our recent art exhibit, Left on Tiny 17. The exhibition, which was held at our studios near Lafontaine on Aug. 16, was a great success. About 400 people came to view the work and enjoy the gardens. It is encourag- dramatic increases in local student placement activity. This year our placement level increased (to date) 12.5 per cent over the 1985 season, and 34.4 per cent over the 1984 season. In ac- tual numbers the 1984 placement level was 893 jobs, 1985, 1,068 drew 400 ing to see so much support for an art event of this kind. We particularly ap- preciated Michelle Gouett taking the time to preview the show and interview us both. Sincerely, John Hartman Rod Prouse Workshoppe says thanks Dear Editor: The Penetang Art Workshoppe would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who helped make our Sum- merama art exhibition such a success; the media, the Penetang Chamber of Commerce, the Penetang Legion, Ray McLarney and the public for their interest and comments. Special recognition goes to the North Simcoe Arts Council for their financial aid. I personally wish to thank the members of the Penetang Art Workshoppe for their support and participation. Yours truly, Prima McIntosh (President) Almost $3,000 raised during day Dear Editor: On behalf of the members of the Auxiliary to the Huronia District Hospital, I would like to thank the area residents and summer visitors for their generous support of our annual Tag Day. The one day "blitz" of the malls and downtown area raised almost $3,000. This money will be used for equipment purchases and will support Auxiliary projects in pa- tient care. A special Thank you is due to Mary Jarman and. her group of volunteers in Victoria Harbour; to the three Junior Volunteers who tagged in uniform; and to Knox Presbyterian Church and the church secretary. Their help is much appreciated. This year, 1986, is a special birthday year for the hospital and the Aux- iliary. We can all be very proud of our regional hospital, the staff and volunteers. But we always need the help and support of the community. Please remember us this coming year as special events and projects are an- nounced. Thank you. Cathy Martin President H.D.H.

The Midland Canada Employment Centre for Students has had increases and decreases in placements over the years, which largely reflects local economic performance. I have been fortunate to ad- minister this program dur- ing a local economic upsw- ing. This year's placement level, at the Student Centre in Midland, is the highest recorded since the pro- gram started. The bottom line, however, is that our emloy- It was a real assembly line production to get a hot dog -at the Al McLean Corn Roast held in Dalston Sunday afternoon.

Play your part Each year in Canada, about 70 young children are killed and 4000 are injured in car crashes. The latest national survey showed that almost 80% of children under 5 are not being protected adequately in motor vehicles. Transport Canada sets tough safety standards that manufacturers of infant car- riers, child safety seats and booster seats must meet. ; You can provide the best protection for your children by securing them in a properly installed seat, anchored to your vehicle by a top tether strap. Buckle up. It's the thing to do. iv Transport Canada Transports Canada Canada bd | Tuesday, September 2, 1986, Page 7
