Forrester - Editor and Manager Subseription payable în advance b rAdBi 641.kthi <Jk&A Published- every Thursdal t the offkice of publlodSl A-New Era A new era bas been opened, for the Ganaraska River Conserva- tion Authority with the extension of its area last meek at a meeting in port Hope. This news and action should prove a real asset to the Township of Clarke, and the airea wthin the Wilm-ot water systemi. The Ganaraska bas, since its inception, succeeded in accom- plishing much with its limited funds. It bas worked towards conser- vation and in ad dition to its own projects bas also brougbt to many lu the area the advantages of such a prograni. Changes were, however, needed to bring ail municipalities wîth- lu a more equitable framnework of fînancing and ths ;vîll no doubt re- sýuit from their latest move. The three largest municipalitios were, under the old system, paying towards the.Ganaraska on a fixed basis cf $1400.00 each. This system was unfair as the ability to pay and bon- efits derived differed consider ably., In speaking to a Clarke Counillor it now appears that Clarke's share wlll not increase even though the wvhole of the Township is under the Autliority, wbere previously les thian one third of thearea was in the Ganaraska. Durlng the years of its operation, considerable work- bas been dàose by the Ganarauka in Port, Hope and ýHope Township with the es-, tablIshing of parka and ponds. Clarke bas, during tùs period, been paying on an equal basis but receiving a lesser &ttention la auch pro- jecte. It la to be hoped that a major project cmu now be set up by the Atthorlty ini Clarke Township and the head waters of the Wilmot would appeau' ta be a suitable location. Conservation is at present very much on the minds of siUiiy iènd wth expanding use of our saturai resources &ud water waye, *very effort should b. madeto conserve that which mas cannot create. OurLibrary' EmpiasiB are being placed in rnany nelghbourlflg centres on ,eta.Nu11ng and maintaining librarien. These libraries, unlike thtcloç OrcoLieLbrary, are ii the the majorlty of cas'es, furnished' with fund s from the. Municipal trcasury. Under this sciemne and with-0-he ai4 of Provincial Grants tbey are able ta supply the. public wvith a large sel- ectli o! books and a selection which in added ta yearly. The. Orono Library, from alal reports, is suffering from the iack o! funds and bas been in such a position for a number o! years. This lack o! funds hinders the Board froni adding ta its prement readiulg m.aterial and scope of subjects thfls decreasing readership rather than ýincreasing it. Under the present systeni which the Orono Library oper- stes difficuit years could b. !orecast. Tbey receive only a modest $50.00 from the Municipality and with a smnall revenue from -membpr- ships are operating on very littIe. Much as we dislike ta see local enterprises, such as the Library, ýorne under municipal sponsorship, it does appear that financially this ~in about the only answer, if the Orono Library is to advance its service ta the cammunity. Under such a plan the Board would be assured a fixed sum of money and a btter provision of provincial grants. Books and also Libraries are in a competitive field today and to compete againat the many forms of relaxation and entertainnient, Libraries must advance and this means expenditures for new books ýo interôst bath the young sud aid. * Too often our Libraries are lost in the shif fle and even while under Municipal sponsorship funds for Libraries are being competed for by raad, sidewalk or fire departmnents. Yet, ail taken into con- sideration, the human development through the uIse of good books, is possibly more important that a road, sidlewalk of fire protection %ýy- *stemi. A good Library will add as much ta thie development of our town as does a good sidewalk plan. Changes ar-e periodically necessaYy.. and more eniphasis sbould ho placed to assist the Orono Library.
