Sumner last Thursday afternoon. Seated around the quilting frames which had been placed under shady trees on the spacious lawn, they made an attractive picture in their bright summer frocks. Needles flew swift- ly to complete two quilts which had been pieced by Mrs. Sumner in readiâ€" ness for quilting. These she plans to sell, donating the proceeds to the Institute. Delicious refreshments served on the lawn in the late afâ€" ternoon were thoroughly enjoyed by Bayview Ladies’ Guild divided into two groups last winter, the ladies living at or close to Steele’s Avenue, meeting at the homes there, and those living farther north meeting at the homes in their district. The treasurer of the Steele’s Ave.'g'roup gave a buffet luncheon at her home to close the season. This group con- tributed a very lovely layette to the bale being sent by Thornhill Presby- terian Church to a North mission, as well as collecting clothing for the National Clothing drive just com- pleted. The ladies in the Bayview district wound up the season with a meeting at the home of Mrs. Henry Harper. The bale for the North Misâ€" sion, being sent by the Presbyterian Church, was packed, and a bundle of clothing for the collection was taken up to Thornlea school. An air mail letter from Holland was read, ac- knowledging grateful receipt of a parcel from the Guild. Miss Winnifred Simpson of Yonge St. has sold her home to Mr. and Mrs. S. Tobias of Hamilton.

As usual, Thornhill came to the fore in the National Clothing Collec- ‘tion which ended on Saturday last. ‘ School children collected and depos- ited cartons of good used clothing, particularly winter garments, in the three schools in the district, and the results were highly satisfactory. A1- most forty cartons of clothes, one large trunk of clothing ‘(the trunk having been donated), and two or three cartons and bags of shoes were picked up by Mr. Geo. Nuttall from Thornlea, Langstaff and Thornhill public schools, and taken to head- quarters. Up to and including July 15th, clothing may still be collected and shipped collect to the warehouse, and although the overall picture of the Drive looks very well, as time goes on, the need in Europe appears to be getting greater. Any further donations will be most appreciated. Many thanks to those contributors who helped to make this drive a suc- cess, and to the local chairman, Mrs. Jamieson and her committee, Mrs. Crowhurst, Mrs. Pattenden and M15. Bestin. .

HILL, M.D., M.O.H‘ Sunburn, Contaminated Water, Poison Ivy, Unpasteurized Milk, Fatigue. Inability to Swim. It’s our first peacetime sum- mer â€" let’s make the most of it and don’t let the above sum- mer hazards ruin your vaca- tion. It takes two weeks to suntan safely and first expo- sure shouldn’t exceed 10 min- utes in the morning and 10 in the afternoon. A sunburn is a real burn. Poison Ivy grows meekly in waste places and is equally at home in rich wood- lands or near bathing beaches. The plant’s poison can easily be carried by clothes especially if the clothes are damp and have come in contact with the plant. Don’t scratch, use lots of laundry soap and scrub well for several times under runn- ing' water. Boil or chlorinate the drinking water and use only pasteurized milk. If you can’t purchase pasteurized milk then pasteurize the milk your- self. Additional salt is requir- ed during the summer heat to compensate for greater loss from perspiration and to main- tain a correct salt level in the blood. DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH TWP. OF NORTH YORK . A.
