"Although some of these trades for blind people are gone," observes Mr. Mercer, "there are obvious advantages coming out of the new technology." Talking calculators have been developed for blind people, as well as a new machine that scans the printed page, reads ink characters, and translates them into words. Much in these developments is still in the initial stages, notes the CNIB executive director. However, as he points out with confidence, "the technology is there and something will come out of it for us." One of the key milestones in recent history for the blind has been the development of a special library service. This service is currently being revamped and will be transformed by 1980 to a different system throughout Canada which will be standardized with that in Australia and other parts of the world.

Currently, the system embodies a total of 4,000 "talking books" which are recorded on tape for blind people. Some revamping in this area will provide for a higher quality of tapes through four track casettes. A 90-minute casette can provide a blind person with approximately seven hours of reading time. Mr. Mercer judges that the "best development" for blind people taking place right now is in this area of "talking books." 710 ml Bottle Creamed or 2.

Wendy Upper was born on the prairies, and at an early age moved east. She trained as a teacher in London, Ontario and there met and married her husband Dr. Brian Upper, a veterinary surgeon.

In 1967 they moved to Chilliwack, where Dr. Upper joined the staff of the Cheam View Veterinary Hospital. "A working farm" is how Mrs. Upper labels their home and in taking stock she notes 1 dairy cow, several chickens, lambs and pets. They are able to live off the farm, which lends them the feeling of self-reliance and control over their food.

Nutrition is a high priority. Besides being a busy wife and mother, Wendy Upper is keenly interested in "parish" activities, and regards the "church family" as one of significant support in the growth of a family. She holds the office of co-chairman of the Inter-Church Committee for World Development and explained it as an ecumenical group, sponsored by five major religious denominations, instrumental in setting up programs for the community during Ten Days For World Development. They study areas as to development through the Christian aspect and how best to respond to the world's people calling for justice. An example of such a study is Oppression in South Africa and yet another is the liberation theology evolving from the Church working with people in Central and South America.

Wendy Upper's community interest lies yet deeper, for she is one of the six active people in a working group of the People's Food Commission, which is encouraging the Community to examine the production, processing and retailing of food. "From the farm gate to the dinner plate" is how she entitles it. Contrasting to commissions usually set up by the government, this one is generated solely for and by the people and is one of 12 throughout B.C. Hiking and conoeing with her husband and three children form part of the family's recreation. This year the Upper's hope to vacation on the Bowran Lakes near Barkerville.

Mrs. Upper enjoys painting and sketching her children in the various stages of their growth. A relatively new hobby to her is tending indoor plants and she channels her excess energy on to the tennis court where she is presently taking tennis lessons. A family favorite is the Broccoli-rice recipe which adds yet another dimension to her above-mentioned food studies hence it can be called 'production, processing, retailing and tastefully BROCCOLI-RICE cup margarine 1 chopped onion 2 cups chopped broccoli 23 cup grated cheese (Cheddar preferably) Vz cup milk cooked rice Vz cups Cook Vz cup raw rice or use 2 cups already cooked rice.
