The tax rate was set at eight mills—an increase of two mills over last year, The Mill rate was broken down, with 4,5 mills for general accounts and 3.5 for county high­ ways—plus cost of secondary schools to townships or parts of townships not included in high school areas. The budget for the new county health unit was estimated at $3 5,000 for the balance of the year, 510' percent of which is made payable /by the province making the country’s share $17,- 500. Three Fanns To Be Bought Three farms are expected to be bought by the reforestation committee and the January estimate was increased accord­ ingly; no provision was made for the purchase of a county ■museum at $3,00l0>.00 These changes necessitated a reduction of $10,'0l00 from the estimates for alteration to the registry office t0 stay within the January mill rate,” said the statement, Total estimated expenditures in general account are $267,325; estimated revenue, , $267,713; estimated surplus, $>3.88, Children’s Aid Society Reports Mrs. P.

Debate Arises From • Heine Report Several Reeves voiced a com­ plaint that there was not suf­ ficient information available re­ garding mental cases before ad­ mission' to the County Home. It was felt that doctors and clerks of municipalities should be sup­ plied with forms from Ontario hospitals. The debate arose out of the report of the County Home committee that there had .been considerable trouble with three or four inmates owing to their mentality. The committee . proposes to pave the laneway and road around the Home at a cost of $2,10'00; Endorsation was given to the committee’s recommend­ ation that the salary of Mrs. E. J. Jacob, assistant matron, be in­ creased from $75vto $90. The health a net hospital com­ mittee reported that headquart­ ers for the county health unit would be located at Clinton, where the residence of the late Dr. Gunn has been leased at $165 a month for .five years, the Huron County Board o f Health to look after all services, decorating and minor alterations. Incorporated in the lease is an option to -purchase for $20,>000. Pointing out that eight people would apply in county, court the next Reeve Union room. Reeve G. W. Nott of Clinton remarked that if it were “over on the other side, the Americans would have half a dozen flags.” The warden assured .that action would be taken to provide flags. Boundaries Bring Special Meeting A lively discussion took place on the boundaries of high school areas between Wingham and Seaforth. The recommendation of the consultative committee, that Brussels and parts of Morris and Grey to townships be added to the Wingham High ^School District, was criticized by Reeve John McNabb, of .Grey who de­ clared that it was beyond reason to ask Grey pupils to go twenty miles to Whigham when they are only ten miles from Seaforth. Finally, on a division vote of 14-12, .a motion by Reeves .Sills and E. Lawson “was endorsed, that a special meeting of the County Council be called on June 22 to decide on the areas pre­ scribed in the by-laws presented : by the consultative committee. These by-laws would allocate a portion of Morris township to Clinton High School District; a Lord’s Day Act Enforced? Sections of the Lord’s Hay Act governing Sunday operation of .amusement centres Jn summer resorts will be enforced in Grgnd Bend this year, Crown Attorney Glenn Hayes for Huron said fast week. Earlier W. B. Common, K. C. of Ontario Attorney-General’s Department announced that al­ though no new instructions had been sent to county crown torneys or provincial police, directive issued last year to force the Act throughout province still stands.' Last . year four amusement operators at Grand Bend were prosecuted, Crown Attorney Hayes said he had received no instructions for the coming year, ,but “if there are offences under the Act no doubt there will be prosecutions. at* the en- the Mr. and Mrs. Harvey Gardiner of Regina and .their son-in-law and daughter, 'Mr, and Mrs. Gordon Goodridge, o f Leth­ bridge, Alta., spent a couple of days ,renewing old acquaintances.

They do not feel the need for using this money for the immediate requirements of their children. Instead, they regard these cheques as instalments toward buying their children the golden key to tomorrow’s opportunities-—education. So, every month, these parents deposit all or part of their Family Allowances 5n special savings accounts at the Bank of Montreal. They know that, if these cheques go into a child’s own bank account from the first, he will have over $1,000 to his credit at the age of 16—a fine financial backlog for a college education, Besides, when he is old enough, you can encourage your youngster to add to this fund by regularly saving something him­ self . , . out of pocket-money or earnings from his newspaper route. The savings habit will benefit him all his life. And, in the event of emergency or opportunity, this money makes a valuable extra reserve. * Jim Hendry, local B of M manager, invites you to open an "’education” account at his branch, Drop in when your next Family 'Allowance cheque arrives.
