Huron County <Council Business
Making an interim report 'on;
county finances as *of March 3.1,
1963., clerk -treasurer John G.
Berry told Baron •County Coun-
ail at •the opening of its, June
session that: •
"You will note from ,the, finan-
cial statement we' have 'a sur-
plus for the period of $8,;561.83.�
In order to, obtain 'this surplus.
however, we have used $20,000
from last. year's ' funds to, bal-
ance
ance the :,books.. At the:present
time I can seer no reason why
we "should, not . stay within our
allocation for the year, Natural-
ly, however, the final figuresin.
this respect: are not . available'
'until the. road rprogram has. been
completed and all ,accounts 'tab-
ulated,
"Again :I `would: remind coun4.,
cil to be thinking' about plans
for 1964 when.. budget time rolls
around, for then you will have, a
decision',.to make ;regarding' •.tihe.
'mill:rate ,the. county, whether.
it shall ' be increased or remain
the sarne: •If it•:is to remain. the
same,. certain .adjustments .will.
have ''to• ibe. made, the most duras-'
tic of Which. would`be :your road
program. However, :with certain
•minor adjustments, a one -mill
increase would . still . .a11ow us to
carry • on , the heavier:r.'rbad .,pro-.
gram that has been .our practice
over the. last, couple .of years."
G* im Side Of C;A.S. Work •
'So (badly treated have been
some` of the children taken into
careiby, the Children's Aid So-.
ciety that one lad 'only recently
has stopped ducking his head if
anyone looks at him. crossly,and.
is only gradually beginning to
feel .that anyone cares for him.
A ,glimpse of human cruelty
and: of the . grim• .side of 'CAS.•
work. was given • Huron County
Council .at its June session by
Miss. Clare,. McGowan,:: Waal`. di-
rector, ,accom'panied' by ,Mrs.
Lauder, •: who visits the ' foster
homes. . .
"Some of these ehildren have
been. `Ticked •around' frons • place
to ,place." Miss McGowan• .said,
"and.. have never felt they were
really wanted anywhere, anywhere, and
they are dreadfully afraid :It
takes them `a long, ' long ,time..Rto
feel at ease.. •
"Ail the older- cho-ildren 'coming
into deur care . hays proiblerns:;
Theyresent• ' leaving their owri
home., they May be completely
un,Ib.le; ' .to understand the be-
haviour :of theiir parent . or both
parents, •'they', Olay :be afr_.aid to
trust the. ;foster parents--,-. afraid
`to. ,believe iri :theif: kindneas.. It
requires infinite patience and.
understanding- to be a 'fos;ter par=
.exit,: and We desperately, need far
.more of ththt.
, "Some of :these children have
do '.idea of obedience,; and of
equrse can't :understand • discip�
line except beatings:. Some
have. never been to 'church or
Sunday • school and ,.feel they are
not 'wanted there. ,
