About two millica Cana-. dians have hypertension and . many of them will risk prema- ture death and disability unless their blood pressure is reduced. High blood pressure usual- ly produces no symptoms until it's too late and in most cases, doctors don't know what causes it. Consequently, everyone should have his or her blood pressure checked regularly. The test is simple, inexpen- sive and painless, If you have hypertension, it can be control- led in most cases with drug and diet therapy. There's a tendency to think that high blood pressure only afflicts the elderly. But it can occur at any age. Physicians have detected hypertension in amall children, teenagers and young children as well as persons in their middle-age. 76 Pine Street “For Your Valentine COLUMBIA HEART DIAMOND RING HEART LOCKET — HEART CHOKER or HEART EARRINGS We invite you to come in Bosse’s Jewellery Ltd. legar PHONE 365-7141 Casth JEWELLERY Despite its occurrence at all ages, hypertension remains neglected.

High blood pressure vic- tims also ignore other factors, which work with hypertension to increase the probability of heart attack or stroke. The Heart Foundation calls them risk factors and they include improper diet, cigarette smok- ing, lack of exercise and obes- ity. Heredity also can play a role. Persons whose parents have high blood pressure are more likely to have it them- selves. Your B.C. Heart Founda- tion is conducting programs to make the public aware of the problem of high blood pressure and feels that if more Cana- dians had their blood pressure checked regularly, there would be a marked increase in the number who live longer, health- ier lives.

Most people don't even know what the New Economic Order is, Peter Dimitrov of Nelson said. “And this is due partly to the fact that the press has printed very little about it.” “_ .In his brief to the MPs, Frank Van Zandwyk of Nelson, singled out control and sharing, ‘Who shall control and who shall benefit from the resources and how can we best share with all of mankind? “We need a global view, a long-term commitment and a goal,” he said, speaking for and the government must be- come more fully aware of Canadian companies abroad. Having visited Nigeria re- cently, she said she noticed a great change in the people's attitude, compared with 10 TS ago. “There is much more hope in Nigeria now because of the oil and I think it will mean a greater change there.
