Their windows were broken by Ailied bombs. They used a good bomb shelter under a mountain, but some cernent ones, about a mile away, were not good enough to prevent people from being killed. Well, there you have thumb nail sketches of the people who are pruning Scots Pines on the Ganaraska Project, hoping to make the trees more shape- ly for Christmas trees. These folks are just a cross section of ordinary Canadian cîtizens trying to earn an honest dollar by the sweat of their brow, and at the sanie time give good value for the money earned. They ail live in Durham County, some native, some adopted, but Canadians all. MORRISH On Wednesday evening July l3th at the home o! Mr. and Mrs. Allen Peters a miscel- laneous shower was given for their youngest daughter Mildred Jane, by friends and neighbours, about 40 guests gathering to do honor to this popular young lady. There was no program but a very pleasant time was spent chatting with friends, mostly about the long heat speli and crops so badly in need of ramn. At 9:15 p.m. a move was made to the large dining-room and Iwhen the bride-elect and ber fiance were seated a short ad- dress was read by Mrs. Wm. Mc- Holm. At the given sign a large decorated basket was brought in by Lorecn Young and Joan Marvin, !illed with gaily wrap- ped parcels. A table was also needed for more gifts and for the next haîf hour Miss Peters was busy admiring the lovely gifts unwrapped and presented by the two Young ladies men- tioned before. Miss Inez Sym- onds meanwhile was occupied in a very thoughtful gesture, that of writing the name of the article upon the back of the card enclosed, thus preventing any1 mixup in wondering, as is so1 often the case-the giver of eachE gift. A very nice "thank you" speech was given by Mildred Jane and Mr. Rathbun togetherE witii invitations to visit with themn at any time when in the vicinity of Carrying Place. A general move was made once again back to thé living. room and sunporch where dainty refreshments were served ac- companied by plenty of iced Freshie and the always welcome cup of bot tea. At Il p.mn. this pleasant get-c together came to an enid witli hearty congratulations to Our Young friends soon to be united in holy matrimony; also, many thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Peters 1for giving the use of their home for the occasion. Bethany W.M.S. JuIy Meeting Bethany: Members of the Wornen's Missionary Society of the United Church met at the home of Mrs. Walter Rowland with Mrs. George Waddell pro- siding. Mrs. R. R. Bonsteel led in the responsive reading of the scripture lesson. Mrs. Otto Spencer and Mrs. H. Jakeman gave items on the progress of Christian welfare work ir Trinidad. Mrs. Clarence Row- an reported on work in India. Mrs. T. Jackson spoke briefly on stewardship and told of the work of Miss Constance Wagar in Trinidad, now principal uf the high school in St. Augus- tine. Mrs. Manscîl Wright fook charge of the study book per- i. She pointed out "Concern is expressed for the future of the work of the church in In- dia.

FAST RELIEF FOR PAIN Citizen s Requested to Express Views on Garbage Collection In order to give citizens j concise picture of the repori presented to Town Council by the special committee composed of Coun. Dave Higgon, chair- man, Deputy-Reeve Wilfrid Car- ruthers and Coun. Tom Rehder on the question of municipal garbage collection, we havE scanined, the report and picked out the main clauses for youi consideration. First, the committee are to be commended for the thorough and unbiased way in which they have gathered their informa. tion. They drafted an elaborate questionnaire covering ail the important aspects of garbage collection and mailed it to 74 municipalities in Ontario to see how At actually works in these towns. This was quite a job in itself . But that was only a starter. The requests for infor- mation were well received and replies promptly returned. The committee then had the job of summarizing each report for easy reading and this was fol- lowed up by preparing their report for Town Council. This lengthy report was published in full with figures from 34 munici- palities in The Statesman, issues of July 7 and 14. Lest you fail- ed to read these reports we are again giving publicity to the main clauses as Town Council intimated it will base its action on the will of the people. C. of C. Recommends A joint meeting was held with the Chamber of Commerce, namely A. H. Sturrock, B. Kit- ney, L. Lucas and G. Lander. These recommendations were made by the joint committees: 1. To pass a Garbage Collec- tion By-law. 2. To pass a by-law to control the dump. 3. A Garbage Collection to be arranged for the Town of Bow- manville, either by municipal employecs or by contract, at the pleasure of Council. Deplorable Town Dump Until the by-laws are passed and a garbage collection estab- lished, it will be impossible to control the presenit condition ex- isting in the town and the town lump. If the above are estab- lished the dump gate could be locked and only authorized per- sons would have access to it. Eliminate Nuisance To elimînate a further nuisance, nalnely, the burning at the lump, it is suggested that the and-fill method be used. Wîth this method a trench is used for the disposai of garbage and then filled in with dirt, thus the necessity for burning would be If a contract is given for the garbage collection, it would be an advantage to have the same :ontractor maintain the dump. Approximate Co-st Tt is only possible to establish an approximate cost. Our present population is 6,200. On the basis of the survey with anav erage cost per capita of $ 1.43 he cost would be $8,806.00. Us- ing the highest figure received of $3.00 per capita the cost would be $18,600.00. If the municipality wvould op- erate the collection the initial a cost of the equipment could be 7t financed on a 10-year debenture. y The initial cost of the equip- ment would be $10,500.00 On a 10-year basis et 4% would total *$14,700.00. tl Yearly cost: $1,470.00-(10-year ebasis) equipment; $1,666.00- d(replacing in three years) Truck; r $6,864.O0-(three men) Labor; $500-Gas and cil. Total, $10,- e500.00, which is a cost o! $1.70 hper capita. Y On a private contreet basis ,the cost would be subject to the etenders of the contractors. e Cost Per Household e ti ugse ta h ar eest means of collectîng for this eservice would be to establish a cost per household which would be added ta the bydro bill. This would remove the expense frorn the property own- er and put the expense on the fhouseholder who is benefitting from the service. Also the col- lection would be flexibile and rcould eliminate the places not 9requiring garbage collection, for 1example, the farms witbin the -municipality who feel that they 5will not require this service. - Man Ready to Contract The chaîrman stated that he! had been approached by a local man who is willing to take a contract, provide a closed van and pickup at the rear, which. would eliminate placing cans out on the street. It would be ex- pected that the cost would be higher than a municipal col- lection. but it would stili ha less than the cost of the present system for those w1ho are fort- unate enough to have it. Some people have been denied 1the use of the present garbage collection, hie said, which seems to be governed by the whims of those doing the collection. It is înteresting ta note that from the total o! 74 replies from other towns to the questionnaire which. was sent out, only three stated that their municipality did nat have municipal collec- tion of same type, either by the municipal employees or by con- tract, and these were. aIl smaller than.the Town of Bowmanville. Average Cost $1.43 The survey o! the' 34 towns, which appeared in our issue of' July 14, showed the cost per capita ran from $1.07 in Tren- ton to $3.13 in New Toronto, or an average of $1.43 for the 34 miunicipalities. Citizens are requested to study r the problern thorouighly and then contact any member o! the Town Council before the August meeting, letting them know your views. Council mayý take im- mediate action, or submit the question to a vote o! the electors at a special election or at the annual civic election in Decem- ber.
