BUTT R Richmond Hill n TUrner 4-1312 Newmarkel‘ HOSpiIaI To Have Psychiatric Ward There are several bach precau- tions that all boaters should know and observe, but the cardinal rule is a very simple one: display good man- ners afloat; show proper respect for others and, as a rule, you will get the same treatment in return. An- other cardinal rule: use a little com- mon sense. It does not take much knowledge of boating to know that a big lake on a windy day can be dangerous to a small craft. The board of governors of the county hospital at Newmarket are to be congratulated on their decision to include a 24 bed psychiatric ward in the new wing at the hospital. The contract has been awarded and work begun on this badly needed addition to our county medical services. For some time now the York County Branch of the Canadian Mental Health Association has been advocat- lng the inclusion of psychiatric fac- ilities in the new wing. The associa- tion was encouraged by the sympa- thetic response it received from the board of governors. Emotional and mental ills are one of the main scourges of modern day society. Mental ills are just as real as physical ones and can cause a person untold suffering and an- guish. They strike all age groups and are the subject of constant re- search as to their cause by learned There are nine points to observe for a safe season afloat: (1) Do not overload your craft. (2) Do not standup or change seals while the boat is underway. If you must move about, keep low in the centre of the boat and hang on to the gunwales. (3) Avoid exhibitionism such as The reeve of North York is right when he talks about the high interest rates that a municipality must pay in order to obtain the necessary funds to meet the demand for essen- tial services. If the average taxpayer took time to study the interest charges on a 20 year debenture issue for say a new school or works pro- ject he would be dismayed to learn how much of his tax dollar is going towards the paying of annual inter- est charges. ' ' "Tiiémauuggestion that, municipalities should meet more of their capital If you are one of the thousands who will take to the water this year to enjoy boating or sailing, now is the time to brush up on the rules for safe boating. Reeve Norman Goodhcad of North York Township has called on Canadian municipalities to revert to pay-as-you-go ï¬nancing instead of debenturing for major works proâ€" jects. Mr. Goodhead made his re- marks at the Winnipeg convention of the Canadian Federation of Mayors and Municipalities. The question of how to ï¬nance badly needed public services is one of the major problems facing many debt-ridden suburban municipalities to-(lay. Referring to the provincial and federal levels of government Mr. Goodhead remarked, “I think we are always prone to cry shame at the other levels of govern- ment. But thats not the answer to our problemsâ€, said Mr. Goodhead. He said municipalities must pay more capital costs out of current funds, rather than from long-term debenture issues. even if it means increasing the mill rate. He noted that Metro Toronto had instituted a special two mill levy to help ï¬nance subway construction. “Taxpayers wouldn’t mind paying more taxes if they could see the reason right on their tax bills", said Mr. Goodhead. 24 Elizabeth St. N.

Post Office Department, Ottawa" 112 Yonge St. Toronto medical authorities. The present day trend is away from large government operated institutions and in their place we see the establishment of psychiatric wards in general hos- pitals. It is far better to treat a per- son in his own community in familiar surroundings and in contact with his family and friends. The old conâ€" cept of isolating mental patients and taking them out of circulation so to speak has given away to more ad- vanced theories of good mental health. The only real solution to the pro- blem lies in the establishment by the two senior levels of government of a municipal loan fund where hard pressed municipalities could borrow large sums of money for essential services at low interest rates. The borrowing powers of the individual municipalities is obviously limited in comparison with the resources and bargaining powers of \the prov- incial and federal governments. In- stead of each municipality competing on the money market one central- ized authority could represent them collectively. The commission ï¬nances the sewage or water system retains ownership and operates it until paid for, at which time the commission will turn it over to the municipality. Dr. S. E. Jensen who heads the mental health clinic at Newmarket will be able to work in close contact with the hospital. Badly needed hos- pital facilities will now be available to the clinic. People requiring hos- pitalization can now be treated in this county without«having to be sent to one of the large hospitals in such places as Toronto. The province book similar action along this line when it set up the Ontario Water Resources Commis- sion to meet the increasing demand for municipal water. (4) (5) (6) (7) buzzing a dock. wharf or an- chored craft. You may miss and such antics mark you as an ir- responsible skipper. Watch your wake. The waves can damage shoreline property. Avoid boating too close to swim- mers, ï¬shermen and water ski- ers. _ Do not jump or dive from a moving craft. You may hit floating debris or you may have your wind knocked out. Never take a boat out unless it contains life jackets for every- one aboard. (8)Never venture too far from shore (9) on a large body of water in a small craft. Sudden squalls can play havoc with unwary boat- men. If your boat overturns, stay with it. The chances are good enough that, sooner or later, someone will pick you up. costs out of current revenue can al- ways be questioned as to why the present generation should pay for services which future generations will also enjoy. Winnipeg's ï¬nance commissioner suggested the possi- bility of ï¬nancing municipal costs through a municipal income tax or a special automobile tax. With taxes already record high property owners would not look kindly on any addit- ional forms of taxation. Under pres- ent ï¬nancial conditions it would seem wise for a municipality to at- tempt to strike a happy medium be- tween current revenue and debenture payments. High interest charges are the bane of not only individuals but also of governments. - ,AURORA: The Remington Rand [National Training Institute, loperated in Aurora (01' the past Iseven years, will close June 15. The training school. in the former public school building 'on Church St., sometimes had an enrolment of 80 in the cour- [se. The company will now give "on the job training". June 21, 1962 Some of the reasons why Mrs. Joynt thinks peace research is so important is because there is no longer any effective protection for anyone against today’s weapons of war. Science must be put to work stop- ping the rampage of war as it was put to work stop- ping the rampage of polio. We should turn to scien- tists because they are trained to look for facts. They seem to know and not guess the answers to problems. Because scientists approach a. problem objectively . . . unhampered by emotional pressures, they can come up with fair and logical conclusions. When major problems arise in medicine, in agriculture, in industry, we turn to scientists for help. It is high time we turned to scientists for help in solving the problem of war. Families and children deserve to live in a world that has banished war. Mrs. Joynt believes that housewives should do their part in keep- ing interest in this problem alive. They can talk about it amongst themselves, at coffee parties or in any group meeting. Mrs. Joynt, herself, does this very thing. At group meetings she plays the tapes made by Pierre Berton, Lister Sinclair and Dr. Al- cock on the need for supporting the Canadian Peace Research Institute. Anyone wanting these tapes can get them from Mrs. McEnany, 93 Douglas Crescent, Toronto. THE NOISY INTRUDER We were hammering nails into the plywood of the cottage floor when we heard it. It almost sound- ed like a burst of thunder or a train rattling over an iron bridge. It was such a new sound, an almost frightening sound that we had never heard before. Someone must be playing a trick on us. Who could it be? We leaped up from the floor. (When I say leap, don’t take me literally it was really all I could do to get up oflf my poor old knees.) We went outside to , investigate. There was nobody . . . and nothing any- " where but the sky, the trees and the lake and two 2 nervous people imagining all sorts of things. We went back in again. Once mbre we got on our knees and hammered away. In a few minutes we heard it again. It sounded metallic this time, and it seemed to me more like a trick someone would pay you on an eerie Hallowe’en night. What could it be? Once more we went out to investigate. Then we heard the sound again. It seemed to come from the front of the cottage. Suddenly my companion burst out laughing “Look,†she said excitedly. “It’s a woodpecker trying to drill a. hole in the downspout of the eavestrough.†I looked and so it was my friend, that hard working little bird with the saucy red cap on his head pecking l away for dear life on a mass of tin. The thing I can’t . help wondering about, “Do you suppose he knew what he was doing?" ' haven’t got a pothole? * * ak * not It would take a cartoonist to do justice to the embarrassment of the Mounties “getting their man" in the Doukhobor district of B.C.; but the boys in the pointed hats must be having some rather pointed second thoughts over how this burn-your-house-and- disrobe nonsense never seems to take place in the wintertime.

It was really a red letter day in her life. Ill * * II t We don’t know how the bakers will explain the price-rise if bread goes up.

The characteris- tics of wool and wool materials are studied in order that the club members may choose more wisely, know how to work with wool and give it the proper care. Each member is required to plan, select and make a wool skirt or jumper. This year, the em- phasis has been on clothing, but the 4-H homemaking programme is so rich and varied, that every year Achievement Day will feature new projects all de- signed to help girls participate in farm activities and to share responsibilities as a member of a family group. It affords the girls an opportunity to plan, participate and co-operate with others in purposeful activities and develops in girls a satisfaction in ach- ievement and a pride in rural living. Mrs. Laird Joynt of 20 Uplands Avenue has been a busy woman for some time now. She is trying to do her part in stirring up interest for the Canadian Peace Research Institute in the Thornhill Area. Mrs. Joynt, wife of Dr. Laird Joynt, and mother of two small children became ï¬rst interested in the Canad- ian Campaign for nuclear disarmament. This led to her whole-hearted support of the Canadian Peace Research Institute. “Let no one think,†she said, “that the Canadian Peace Research Institute can be confused with action groups. It is deï¬nitely not an action group.†As the earth blossoms, and every bush and plant is vital with new growth, so the air rejoices in the great spring chorus of birds. It would seem that the whole earth sings and song is sweet. Custom robs most things of wonder, habit breeds indifference, but there are few who are not conscious of the miracle of Spring. And though we are now in the season of summer which has its own peculiar glory, it never quite measures up to the springtime; but then no season ever does. And that is why I should hate to leave Spring behind. I always want to see it again and again. Someone asked me the other day what ‘I should be most loath to leave on this earth. “Spring,†I said, without hesitation, and although there are many things I ï¬nd precious . . . light, warmth, sunrise, sunset, the comforting handclasp of a friend, the trust of a wild creature, the knowledge that some- one cares and is happier for one’s existence, quiet hours free from pain, ï¬relight in a room" in which there are those good companions . . 2 books, music, and the scent of flowers. Yet in spite of all these, it is Spring I’ll leave most reluctantly. Spring with its beauty, its eternal resurrection. RUTH JOYNT - - WORKS FOR THE INTERESTS OF CANADIAN PEACE RESEARCH INSTITUTE Ruth Joynt and many other women are getting in the news because they are caring what happens to the world. You can help by caring what happens to our world too. On June 29, there will be a dance at the Bayview Golf Club and the proceeds will be go- ing in aid of the Canadian Peace Research Institute. Being well dressed and well groomed is a very important phase of 4-H homemaking club work. This study includes the care of clothes and the art of be- ing well-groomed. Although homemaking clubs may vary their clothes projects this is the general pro- cedure for helping the girls to become clothes and style conscious. Each member makes a white slip for herself and applies ï¬nishes and trims. Each member plans and makes a cotton dress becoming in color and style. This teaches selection of material, the use of commercial patterns and ï¬nishes such as bound buttonholes and facings. Wardrobe planning is studied with emphasis on planning how to get satisfaction from clothes and how to spend money wisely. Each member plans, selects and makes a nightgown or pyjamas. She may also make a house- coat _a_nd bedroom slippers. The more I learn about 4-H work, the more I like it. The admiration I feel for the wonderful ac- complishments of the 4-H young people is boundless. Although there are many types of 4~H clubs, the 4-H homemaking club does not have to take a back seat for any of them. Recently the 4-H homemaking club had a very successful achievement day on May 12, at Aurora.

It has exquisitely formed high-centred buds of pure rich pink and very glossy foliage. It makes a splendid showing in the garden and is excellent for cutting, makes a good show rose. The same may be said for others of this class. Buccaneer is a golden beauty and Carousel is a most satisfactory damk red. Montezuma is an exciting colâ€" our -â€" a blend of light red, Having paid our respects to old favourites let us look at some of the more recent de- velopments. The Grandiflora is a cross between the hybmid tea and the floribunvda, having the good qualities of both. It is vigorous in growth. tall and branching. The large blooms are in candelabra form. each flower with a nice length of stem for cutting. A number of the blooms grow singly on long stems and are excellent for show purposes. A great point in favour of the Grandiflonas is their great vigour and health- iness of foliage. We have grown Queen Elizabeth for eight years and seldom has an aphid ap- proached its stateliness -â€" and black spot, never. For a striking display of colour you can‘t beat Fashion. It is a luminous shade of coral with darker buds. Ivory Fash- ion is lovely in white. " The best yellow we know in‘ this class is Goldilocks, a pro- liï¬c bloomer and, owing to its low spreading habit, easy to propagate by layering. All the Pinocchio varieties are vigorous and_ tree-blooming. Floribundas are widely grown because of their masses of bloom. Among these Else Pont- sen is one we should not like to be without. Its bronzy-‘Ded leaves are attractive in early spring and it blooms freely all summer and into the fall. At a recent show the place of honour was held by a per- fect bloom of McGredy's Yel- low. This rose of 1933 vintage is still one of our best yellows. A close runner-up was that grand old lady of the garden, Frau Karl Druschki. Going strong since 1901, it merits our admiration for its snow white blooms and vigour of growth. \ There's hardly a rose that ‘blows that someone doesn't just love, or let us say that every- one has a favourite rose. Often it is one of the old familiar varieties and we notice how often these win the coveted title of “Best in the Show" in competition with the newly de- veloped beauties. At a recent of honour was fect bloom of low. This rose Crimson Glory is a frequent prize winner and one of the most popular of the dark crlm- son roses.

Plant in early spring in a bed of good soil where the sun shines part of the day. Prepare your soil with a generous amount of compost or peat moss. Once established, the plants will beneï¬t by a feeding in the early part of the season to stimulate blooming and light feedings of a balanced fertiliz- er every two weeks to the latter part of July.
