Social Notes: 'Spring, Mr. and Mrs. Alex Henderson of 13 Campbell Avenue, Thorn- hill returned Tuesday, November 17th from a whirlwind trip over most of the State of Florida, guests of the Florida Hotel Assoc- iation and the Hertz Corpora- tion. The tour, arranged over the past six months, was arranged for Travel Editors in the United States and Canada so they could see at first hand the sights they recommend to their readers. Mr. Henderson is the Travel Editor of the Toronto Star "and he and Mrs. Henderson were the only Canadians in the group of al-. most 80 people who took the trip. Starting out from Jacksonville, Florida, they covered 1,500 miles by car and received V. I. P. treat- ment at every stop, taking part in a continual round of lunch- eons, tea, cocktail parties and for- mal receptions. They took a; yacht trip on the St. Johns River, Jacksonville, 'a champagne lun- cheon flight over the Florida Keys in an Eastern Airlines Jet plane, a jungle cruise at Kawalla and saw a Water ski show at Cypress Gardens - ALL IN ONE DAY. The pace was ter- rific, and Mrs. Henderson feels she has seen more of Florida in eight days than most Floridians see in a lifetime. Their group travelled in a fleet of 21 limous- ines and they were called to start their day at 6:30 each morn- ing. Temperatures in Florida were over 80 degrees all the time and when the Hendersons came home last week, it was to a record cold wave. So what are they do- ing now, thats’ right, nursing great big beautiful colds! Mrs. J. Bridges; lst vice-presi- dent. A. Bone; 2nd vice-president, A. Sumner; committee. Mrs. E. Boyden, H.

After the election, Mr. Budd gave an excellent talk on the care of everyday house plants, follow- ed by some beautiful slides taken in and around Toronto parks. He ended by answering questions, and many members had their house plant problems clarified. "Refreshmehts were served un- der the direction of Mrs. R. Heal- ey and Mrs. TLPhergill. _ ~ Don't forget December 8 â€" the annual dinner and prize-giving. Members and their families may obtain tickets from any member of the executive. [gum ./4rounc1 ‘ by Elizabeth Kelson The slogan of the Canadian Mental Health Assoc- lation is: With your help, the mentally ill can come back. This is a concept that was once thought in the realm of impossibility. That is true no longer. The cause of mental health is tugging at the heart and the purse strings of Canadian people everywhere. Why? Mental health in this country is becoming a serious problem. There are 4560 patients admitted each year to Ontario mental hospitals. Over half the beds in hospitals of all types in Canada are occupied by mental patients. This means over 70,000 patients â€" more than are hospitalized for cancer. polio, arthritis, heart disease, tuberculosis â€" and all other diseases combined. Besides that almost a million Canadians are partially disabled by mental or emotional illness not serious enough to require hospital care. These are only a few of the facts given out by the Canadian Mental Health Association, and the problem concerns us all. We are gradually becoming aware of what good mental health means to each one of us. We can be thank- ful that there are people with the vision and the will to believe that something can be done to raise the stan- dard of mental health everywhere. Mrs. P. Townshend- Carter believes this. Barbara Townshend-Carter is. the dynamic young chairman of Volunteers for the York County branch of the Mental Health Association. This is what she has to say about the matter: “We need many more White Cross volunteers,‘men and women, young and old who can visit approved homes once a month or oftener. We should like community co- operation so that residents of approved homes may be welcomed to the community and invited to use recrea- tional, educational, and religious faculties available. We should welcome Women’s Institutbs, Church Groups and Service Clubs to “Godmother” an approved home â€"â€" give birthday and Christmas presents and fin- a ial help‘ with some special help like bowling after- nggns or expeditions. Perhaps they could donate to their approved home a sewing machine, piano, TV. radio, record player, books and magazines. We welcome donations of scrap materials, wool, embroidery materials, handicraft supplies and good used clothing in these homes also.” (The volunteer chairman can be contacted at Box 45, Thornhill, phone AV. 5-4465 and arrangement will be made for the picking up and distribution of donations.) According to the most reliable source of informa- tion, did you know that: almost half the patients in Ontario mental hospitals have had no letter for a year or more. Is it ’any wonder that volunteers are needed? At the present time, the urgent need is for Christ- mas gifts to cheer the lonely and bewildered hearts of mental patients. Although cash donations are welcome for other mental health purposes, the Mental Health Association would- prefer that interested people will buy. wrap and give gifts out of their concern for these people. A wise selection is necessary so it is suggested that the appropriate gifts for women might be, aprons, cosmetics in plastic squeeze bottles, jewelry, knitting wool, crocket hooks and embroidery thread. The ap- propriate gifts for men might be cigarette cases, ear muffs, toilet goods in plastic squeeze bottles. Both sexes might appreciate cigarettes, ball point pens and note paper. Interested parties would send these gifts to the Volunteer chairman, Mrs. P. Townshend-Carter. Free Delivery Phone AV.5-5|7I RED & WHITE Markei 8240 YONGE STREET THORNHILL ‘Vmwww..v .......
