This iiearing gives th.eop- portunlty for everyone te volce their concern ciflxer for or -against the move and frem present information this xii b. the case. There is aiways opposition te such a move as is being souglit. 7%-t fear of change is aiways present whether if be te Incorporation et any ther meove that differs the general way et lite or things. But today the. worid is nothing but a series of changes and we must agree liaI in the. najority they have been for th. better. We have noted that some are fearful of a great increase in taxes ef Incorporation beconues a fact but why should if coat one municipal- jty a mnuch greater sum than another te operate and provide the bMic and necessary services warranted. In ciiecklng the Newcast le Village fax bill, we find fixat propcrty owncrs in Newcastle arc paying onr a lesser total miii rate than are the property owners li the Police Village of Orone. The tothl residentiai miii rate in Newcastle for ail .nrvices iucliuding education and counties rate is, this ycar 78.10 milîs co'mpared te 80.18 paid by Orone preperfy owners. Although Newcastle pays a lesser ftetal rate for ail services, their general municipal rate is 28.92 compared te 24.68 mills for the. Police Village of Orono which points ouf that per dollar of assessment they are able te spend more in their own centre on a lesser tofai ratg. Miis being truects year, couid change siigiifly in future years due fe everlevy on the ceunfy rate in Newcastle in 1961. But if does bear ouftfluaI taxpayers li Newcastle, an Incorperated Village, are paying >io mcrè miii rate than taxpayers li the Police Village et Orono. ~'- Looking at ftue services previded by the. fax money collected flrouglu the. mliirate if 15 xofed that in Newcasf le they are iJt&in- ~-i2g their tire deparfment, roads, paying cost ef street iighfînig and for neW Mercu'y-Vït&,PuV W tretlighit s cx flue Main Street, maimiaining a Oommminity Ual i ga àcorisiderablè expense tote ieaxpayers, public "works, welfare, hospital debenture, recreation, a çonxnunity library gaining a municipal grant ot $950.00 plus a legisiatiVe gfsxlt of $10 and directixig 3 miuls towards watcr installation.

Out of the millions who will lie enjoying these pleasures, if le probable fhaf nearly a thousand will flot enjoy theni for' very long.

But this Spring, the main drag has been an eyesore, with its scaftered litter. Like others, we wonderecl Why the Police Trustees didn't use their power te hire someone teo ean up the mess, Last Sattrday, a dozen or more juveniles swung into action and rea!ly spruced Up the main stem by the timre honored "armstrong" niethod. En-I quiries brought forth the. information that, these children, of twelve and thirteen years of age, belong te the Orono Junior Horticultural Society, and had been discussing the untidy appearance of their home burg when one of them said "Why don't we dlean it up?"' And, that's just what they did!J Saturday, by tradition, is a elhld'è3i playday, and when a group of them' have enough communîty spirit to fore. go fheir play te make their towii cleaner, they deserve lots of praiseý. Their action~ refutes the argument that, today's juveniles are not as good as previous generations.
