He consid- Ired it “more than likely”' in |iew of the increased.,'cost en- piled in setting up a new coun- 1/ library system. I Mr. Berry submitted financial Itatements. as follows: general Iccount, highways account, munty health unit, county lib- liry co-operative, ■ Children’s lid Society, Huron County lorne. . ■ * „ I Generally speaking, the fin- Bxcial picture appears to be ■ther good. - All accounts are' ■owing a surplus, with the ex- ■ption of highways, and this is ■ual during the construction ■riod; there seems to‘be no Bason’ why they should not Bn elude the year’s activity ■thin their budget. ■ ‘The picture for 1967 is going ■ be somewhat different. .De- ■rtments which Will more than ■ely increase in cost of oper- ■on will be adminisitoiation of ■tice, child welfare, Hurori- ■w, Health Unit, library, ■ and ■>enture Costs will also in­ Hase. There will be some re- H in the fact that we can Hsrt a poi’tion of the hospital ^Rrve funds to apply against’ H additional debenture cost, Hier than to continue to build Hour hospital reserve fund.” She clerk stated that, “as ^■the case in all '• municipal His, the workload continues jH increase.” He suggested IHxges to divide committee |Hk between the deputy clerk ^B himself so that bath would ^Bhave to attend committee ^fcngs as in the past.

J wonper’ if we- as parents, are xipt at least as guilty as the young people. Hallowe'en is supposed to be a joke — a trick or treat ate fair. But isn’t it really a lesson for the very young in the gang­ ster “shake down” system (pay up or else!) and we supposedly mature people condone it, How many parents leave their child­ ren the impression that they are proud of the huge bag of goodies their little .ones are able to frighteoa .out of their .innocent victims. Just What affect will this haye on the child as a teen­ ager when the candy and cook­ ies no longer satisfy? Is this the reason the young adult turns to destruction and does .he somehow feel by’ .this deed of .daring- (under• the. cover of darkness), he gains the secret’ approval of ' his parents ? What about the victims? It seems to me that' the fires: this year were much -more numer­ous. Does the public'realize that fire insurance ■ companies .are ref using insurance on, buildings on faims where no one is liv­ ing? Maybe1 these buildings are not of much value'but it doesn’t, take much of a building to be worth a few hundred dollars. There were good buildings de­ stroyed which were insured and here .the aatual loss would be. a great deal more severe. Why should the innocent suf­ fer? Why isn’t there a reserve fund built from our municipal taxes' -to pay for the’ .damages suffered by the innocent if the cplprit escapes or is- unable to pay. We pay dog tax on this basis for livestock losses. There is another area in which we, as a supposedly hu­ mane civilization, are sadly d’e- 'ficient. A few days ago on TV I saw a doctor who had been imprisoned for 10 years for (the murder of his wife. He has now been proven innocent. Ten years lost, wasted to himself and hu­ manity.
