Hearing Tests Set
For Senior Citizens

(North Shore}—Hearing tests will
be given at the Beltone Hearing
Centres on Tues. to Thurs. from
10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

Anyone who has trouble hear-
ing is welcome to have the test.
Many people with hearing pro-
blems don't need hearing aids.
But only a modern hearing test
like the one now being offered by
Beltone can really tell for sure.

Everyone should have a hear-
ing test at least once a year —
even people now wearing a hear-
ing aid or those who have been
told nothing could be done for
them. Only a hearing test can
determine if modern methods of
hearing amplification can help
them hear better.

The hearing tests will be given
Tues. to Thurs. irom 10:00 a.m. to
4:00 p.m.
