MGf TWIMT f4TOOV T4S-PH0EMX. F4T. lI Panina Mr. Willis 102 Participate in Survey A On Aired at Meadow Lake I MEADOW LAKE One hundred and two Meadow Lake citizens 65 and over attended a meeting sponsored by the Aged and Long-term Illness Survey Committee of Saskatche wan, held in the conference room of the new provincial building here. Miss Lola Wilson of Regina conducted the survey.

In outlining the objectives of the committee, Miss Wilson said that in June, 1919, the government of Saskatchewan called a conference to which were invited re ATTENTION VGRKEtl5 THE CCFURSP FARMERS PARTY AW IT IS ,7 UCFHERS PARTY IP THIS IS TRUE. UHY HOH'T THEY FIX THIS TERRIBLE FORD FOR US DRtl WORKERS 1 presentatives of urban and rural associations, farm womens or gan.zat.ons. churches, co-ops. Old Age Pensioners Associations and many others to discuss problems of the aged in Saskatchewan, This province wide survey, she said, wes the largest and greatest in scope of its kind yet attempted on the Notth American continent and that many province and state governments were looking forward to its fmdings. Miss Wilson said that while a great deal of information on the subject was forthcoming at the 1959 meeting, the conference felt that any recommendations it might make to the government would not be complete without an expression of opinion from the people most concerned, the aged of Saskatchewan.

The conference suggested that such a survey be made and recommended the personnel of a committee to be set up for that purpose. The suggestion and the committee was approved by the government and set up, and authorized to prepare an agenda and a questionnaire to be presented to as many as possible of those over 65 in Saskatchewan. The questionnaire as submitted contained 51 main question which, in turn, were broken down into many sub-questions, seeking information on: income, housing, health, cost of living, living conditions, personal activities, hobbies, entertainment and many others problems of the aged. Eight long tables were set up to facilitate writing and nurses from the Meadow Lake Union Hospital and members of Town Councils gave such assistance as was needed in filling out the questionnaires. To encourage freedom of expression, the forms were not signed.

THE SIGN, pictured here, was posted by a party or parties unknown at the entrance to an access road leading to the South Saskatchewan River dam development. Two Big Days at EATONS! Thursday, Nov. 30th; Friday, Dec. 1st Provincial Obituaries Wakaw lo Enter New Hockey Loop WAKAW The Wakaw Warriors, formerly the Wakaw Monarchs, will be one of the teams in the newly proposed intermediate hockey league. Others likely will include Shell-brook and Prince Albert, possibly Birch Hills and two other teams from PA.

A meeting was held recently for preliminary planning at which St. Louis was represented. However, according to reports, the iack of ice and the possibility of lack of players may force St. Louis to forego an entry this year. The ew league may also include team from the Saskatchewan Penitentiary which, of course would play only home games.

The Warriors will be outfitted with new sweaters and socks in golden basic color trimmed with black and white. In addition to last years players, the Warriors expect to see about four new faces on their lineup as well as some of last years midgets. If weather permits ice making, the Warriors expect to hold an inter-squad game on or about Dec. 9. it Watch for the Big 14-Page Flier In Wednesdays Edition of the Star-Phoenix it It if it Funeral service for Angus Cameron Gus Mahan, 87 pioneer Davidson farmer, who died recently in a Saskatoon hospital, was held in Saskatoon Funeral Home chapel and burial made in Woodlawn ceme tery.

Mrs. H.

G. Piper, Clavet, was moderator and the panel members were Mrs. W. Fedora, BIu-cher and E. G.

Baldwin, Bradwell representing the parents; Jean Lough and Bob Dittmer, representing the Elstow high school students. Parental attitudes and example, and lack of respect for the law were lacking when the young people were being taught to drive, so that driver education to improve attitudes, promote courtesy and gain much needed experience was necessary, and this to be taught by fully qualified driver teachers, the panel decided. Traffic Officer H. Blair and assistant officers, R. G.

Achen and Ralph Sodenberg, were in attendance to answer questions and point out many mistaken ideas and impressions held by the older drivers. Const. W. A. Dellebuuer of the RCMP commented regarding traffic regulations in the city as well as the country.

David Melville-Ness of the Draggin Club of Saskatoon outlined the qualifications necessary to be a member; the part it was doing to help drivers, and his own impressions of the driving habits of this age group. A film, Borrowed Power, concluded the program, summing up to a great extent the ideas and comments coming out of the discussion. To sum up, Traffic Officer H. Blair, said Let there be sensible driving rather than safe driving for if there are sensible drivers there will be safe driving. Mrs, Jack Hay, Bradwell, was chairman and Marlene Wegren was pianist.
