If Huron County tax rate is to remain at 14 mills—six for general rate, eight for roads— "adjustments" will have to be made, Clerk - Treasurer John Berry warned council at the opening of the June session. Most drastic of these would be in the road program. "However," Mr. Berry said, "with certain minor adjust- ments a one -mill increase would ,still allow us to carry on the heavier road program which EASY TERMS CROMARTY Mrs. Douglas, ofEmbro, who was visiting at the home of her son, Mr. Charles Douglas, was taken suddenly ill on Mon- day and was removed by am- bulance to Scott Memorial Hos- pital, Seaforth..

LEGION CORNER By JACK HOLLAND Well, comrades and friends, here we are with a bit of news from here and' there. First of all, a couple of dates to remember. First, of course, is the general meeting being held on Thursday, June 13, and a bingo on the following night, Friday, June 14. Due to the summer weather it has been decided by the branch executive to cancel the socials for the months of June, July 'and August, but the bingos would continue every second week. C. Wood, the special events officer and Poppy chairman, in- forms me that Decoration Day will be on Sunday, June 16, and that there are approximately 110 graves to be -visited and decorated with the flag. There are five cemeteries to visit for this occasion, and on Sunday there will be a parade to the Cenotaph in memory of fallen comrades. The parade will leave the Legion Hall at 1:30 p.m. So, in closing, let's leave our thoughts with the 100 veterans who lie in neighboring grave- yards: "At the going down of the sun and in the morning we shall remember them." TIMELY TIPS Try using that small amount of leftover ice cream, slightly softened, as a topping for des- serts. With this idea there is no whipping necessary and no beaters to wash. * * * Serve vegetables as soon as they are cooked. Keeping vege- tables hot for a long period re- duces the vitamin content. has been our practice over the last couple of years." (Estimate at the March session was $1,- 665,300, much of it subject to provincial subsidy.) Mr. Berry reported a surplus for the first quarter of $8,581,- but 8,581,but to obtain it $20,000 from last year's funds was used. At present, he said, he could see no reason why expenditures should not remain within the allocation for the year. A full interim report will be prepared for the September session. At- opening of the session, Warden Walter Forbes men- tioned the passing of Louis Rader, of Hay, warden in .1932. Mr. Rader was candidate for the House of Commons in the same year. Ralph Bailey, • appointed by Exeter council- to succeed as deputy reeve William Musser, resigned, was sworn in by the clerk. Commenting upon the crop prospects, Warden Forbes said he thought Huron "never look- ed better." - Huron is watching the- pro- gress of a pilot project in Went- worth County, -in which welfare administration is organized on a county basis. It has appoint- ed a welfare administrator and has sever9l persons from the department. As a result of discussions at the recent meeting in Chatham of the Ontario Counties Associ- ation, Mr. Berry was able to cite several advantages- and dis- advantages of the system. The overriding factor, he said, was to provide better and prompter service. Among advantages, he men- tioned: this, with appointment of full-time staff; investigation of all cases making application for any type of assistance; uni- form policy throughout the counties, and complete records of all individuals or families requiring any type of assist- ance. Among disadvantages, he cited loss of local autonomy, no saving in cost, and less con- venience for people making ap- plications. "The program will have to be studied more closely when the program has been demon- strated," he said. Miss M. L. Stirling/ county librarian, reported onf a very busy year, so far, Since the be- ginning of the year, she stated, "we have completed one library exchange in March; two school exchanges in February and May, and our yearly pool ex- change in April. Each school exchange lasts five weeks, while our' library exchange takes on- ly two weeks. "During the May school ex- change we serviced eight addi- tional schools in Tuckersmith with a total of nine new rooms. "In March a request was pre- sented to us for books for the Ontario Hospital. This was an- swered by 200 pool books being sent out for their use, with the hope that more books can be supplied to them in the future," About a dozen members of council answered a roll call as intending to be at the Univers- ity of Western Ontario lunch- eon June 26. Warder:, clerk and deputy clerk were _ authorized to ar- range.for the annual county picnic. NCO. More Case, Children's Aril; Reports So badly treated have been same of the children taken • in- to care by the Childrep's Aid Society that one lad only re- cently 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 C.A.S. work was given Huron County Council at its June session by Miss Clare McGowan, local di- rector, accompanied by Mrs. F. Lauder, who visits the foster homes. "Some of these children have been `.kicked around' from place to plane," Miss McGowan said, "and have never felt they were really wanted anywhere, and they are dreadfully afraid, It takes them a lonlg, long time to feel at ease. "All the older children com- ing into our care have prob- lems. They resent leaving their own home; they may be com- pletely unable to understand the behaviour of their parent or both parents; they may be afraid to trust the 'foster par- ents—afraid to believe in their kindness. It requires infinite patience and understanding to be a foster parent, and we des- perately need far more of them. "Somme of these children have no idea of obedience, and of course can't understand discip- line — except beatings. Some have never been to church or Sunday School and feel they are not wanted there. "Sometimes an older child has to be moved to another home. Bad news travels fast, and in spite of all we can do to prevent it, anything bad about the child or his family get there at once. The story is exaggerated Icing before any- one thinks of trying to find out if there is any truth in it." i of.; 1963 Chev.
