And it pointed to the small audi- torium. For the two provincial cabinâ€" et ministers who sat and an- swered questions from munici- pal officials and representatives for two hours. it‘s called: "Tak- ing Queen‘s Park to the People." The biggest point of interest during the session covered as- sesssment. the whys and where- fores of The Assessment Act, 1968-69, as the municipalities sought clarification and made suggestions for amendments to Bill 205. The City of St. Catharines made several suggestions, in- cluding a single rate of 50 per- cent to be applied to all busi- nesses instead of the varying rates now applied. Mr. McKeough agreed a stan- dard rate would be desirable, but said it would take some time to reach the correct rate without harming municipal fin- ances. He pointed out some of the inequities: distilleries at 150 percent (because at one time some people thought that this was taxation of sin, he quipped); retail stores at 25 percent and manufacturing at 60 percent.

Farmlands held for specula- tive purposes also presented a large problem to municipalities. said the St. Catharines mayor- Some definition should be made between a "working farm" and a farm held for speculation. Mr. Fretz pointed out that‘ Vineland was a police village and the residents. without aid of debenture issue. provided their own water system. This was installed on a private en- terprise and as the region would assume control of water systems. he wanted to know how the people of Vineland would benefit from their own investment. The municipal affairs minis- ter said this was ’something which had to be decided by regional council when it meets. But he felt it would mean the residents would enjoy very low water rates. During the afternoon. Mr. McNaughton pointed out that the current, review of assessâ€" ment and the reorganization of the function on a county basis should be of benefit to everyone. At present. he said. taxation was on a very narrow base â€" residential and farm properties bearing the major load â€" and the provincial gov- ernment was moving to have that base widened and provide relief to property owners. The temperature in the room at Grimsby Secondary School increased steadily during the ‘meeting and there was a steady stream from the audience as people headed to the corridor for a drink of water and a cig- arette. This was sparked by the No Smoking signs in the audi- torium. However. the two cabinet ministers appeared pleased with the respanse and the questiens they were asked. But at about the halfway mark during the meeting, the crowd of 200 had diminished to about 100. “We are enjoying these meet- ings because I think we are able to answer questions and we are learning things." said Mr. McKeough afterwards. This was the eighth in a series of 16 meetings being held across the province. And Mr. McKeough said each has been different so far. There are alwayls, new ques- flens and new suggestions- he said. All are helpful in formu- lating and changing policy. TURN SPARE ROQM INTO SPARE CASH BY USING LIBERAL CLASSIFIEDS S. L. G. Chapman, Director of Education J. J.

From this data population esti- mates can be made, and the spawning behavior of fish in the lake can be studied. This section is restricted to those sufficiently humble and wise to love cats. I have just read “The Boys”, by author-playwright-actor Nicholas Stuart Gray. whose fantasies â€"â€" “The Tinder Box”, “The Marvellous Story of Puss In Boots.” and many others â€"â€" have delighted children and adults alike for a long time. For seventeen years he has lived with Comus and Rufus, known collectively as “The. Boys”. The book is the story of their life together. It is a wonderful collaboration between the author, whose humor and understanding of the feline mind (if any mere human dare presume so far) keeps the reader laughing from cover to cover, and Robin Adler, a well-known photographer of animals. who has captured The Boys in every mood and attitude. Comus is the brilliant one. and his eyes reflect conniving brain always plotting some new devasta- tion. while Rufus is dim-witted but adorable. Gray refers to him as Super Brain. He makes up in bulk. however, for his lack of brain power. He weighs 32 pounds, a phenomenal weight for a cat. .(One of my five is an obese thirteen pounds. I keep suggesting Metrecal or Vic Tanny’s, but she doesn’t seem to care). When Nicholas Stuart Gray wrote “The Marv- ellous Story Of- Puss In Boots”. he played Puss in a mask and costume modelled on the mighty Rufus. The mask was made by Wig Creations of London. to quote the author “in a fit of genius”. They studied the model from every angle, even matching human hair to his red and gold stripes. Such is Gray’s sensitivity that he refuses to remove his costume until his little fans are well clear of his dressing room. They come backstage to make sure that Puss is still safe! “The Boys” is published in London by Dobson Books Ltd., but is obtainable in Toronto. If you “The Boys" is published in London by Dobson Books Ltd., but is obtainable in Toronto. If you have the privilege of having a cat for a friend, you will love this one.

When a propeller becomes tangled in a net, the skipper is faced with the diffi- cult task of trying to untangle it, an especially dangerous task in rough or choppy waters. When the nets are damaged either by an accident or by poachers, the repairs are costly. the work time consuming, and the project suffers a definite setback. If we are to manage our val- uable fishery resource success- fully we first need the full co-operation of the public. When you are travelling on Lake Simcoe and notice red and white plastic buoys float- ing. go around them. If you're fishing. don‘t cast your bait in the direction of the net. If you do. there is a chance your bait will get snagged in the webbing or ropes of the net, and you} will lose it. When you see someone, other than Depart- ment of Lands and Forests per- sonnel, tampering with a net, do you: new: and report it to you: local Lands and Forest; or peliee office.

(Continued from Page 2) , During the years of constant communication, a wealth of love and affection has flown westward to OK and eastward to Molly and Jim. Mrs. Adamson said they receive a letter once a month from OK. When she was young the letter writing was done by a nurse at the orphanage. -a- I Rambling Around u , .v... The Adamsons pay $17 a month to'the Foster Parents Plan and send money to OK for her birth- day and at Christmas. “O.K is not a demanding child,” said Mrs. Adamson. “Only once did she ever ask for any- thing. She wanted a comforter for her bed so when my husband went to Montreal, he bought one and sent it to her.” Mrs. Adamson is touched by the deep affection she receives from OK. She feels that the girl felt the need for a mother. She addresses her foster mother as “dearest mummy” or “dearest sweetest mummy.” - I u n LL, There is always an occasion for a bit of whimsy in O.K’s letter writing. “When I explained to her that her daddy sent the comforter.” said Mrs. Adamson, “O.K wrote back and thanked us, beginning the letter with “Dearest mummy and other relative.” O.K does very nicely in school and she is very artistic in embroidery. Mrs. Adamson hopes she can be persuaded to take a business or secretarial course which would help her to a more secure future. In her letters, O.K tells what she gets from the Plan. It varies from shoes, shorts, soap to night attire. One item that is never off the list is insect- icide. She speaks about the holidays that are cele- brated and the picnics and visits to different shrines are occasions to celebrate lunar holidays. O.K is a Christian child and attends church. She explained to her foster mother about the mother’s day ritual. in her country.

The young, and not so young, police- men, housewives with children, business men and students were united in a wave of comradeship that swept through the city.

She spoke to the foster parents and helped them to make representation to the walk committee. She also organized the volun- ters who worked on Miles For Millions. * i t t 3‘ Elizabeth explained how the Foster Parents Plan werks. AD. The aim of the Foster Parents Plan is to work with the child and family unit. The sponsorship is mainly of the child and is usually involved with the whole family. This includes social work, medical treatments, counselling, distribution of clothes and vitamins and medicine wherever required. The final aim is to make the family self-sufficient and this may involve training programs. In the case of the foster parent and the spon- sored child, the would-be foster parents apply to' the plan and are given a child to sponsor. ‘ They are made acquainted with the child’s case history. The nurse or social worker sends regular reports to the foster parents explaining family conditions and describing what line the Foster Parents Plan will follow as regards the medical, sociological and econ- omic problems of the family unit. On the other hand, foster parents are free to write to the social worker or director and say, “I am sending $10 for my foster child for her to use as In the case sored child, the plan and are gi made acquainted Oh the other hand, foster pare write to the social worker or directoi sending $10 for my foster child f0 she wants, etc.” When the foster child is 16, the unless the child remains in school the foster parent is given a furthe: help the‘fester child. a 11.- A .1-..._A~ NOTE â€" Inquiries should be directed to Foster Parents Plan, Dept.
