"And whereas this Council feels that taxation is a fairer and more equitable method of financing Chil- dren's Aid work, since all ratepayers then pay their fair share of the cost. "And whereas we feel that the pre- sent legislation discriminates against the system in forge in our County and others, ' 3 THE P. P. YACHT CLUB i Four days ago we had a great column figured out and in excellent shape. After careful analysis of all pertinent facts we decided that the thing couldn't be improved on by us, it was a good as we could make it! We made one slight error however, we didn't have it on paper! ,A seive brain, like the writer is rather prone to forget things so he forgot the column, the words he was going to use and even what the column was about! So, as you read what follows, don't feel sorry for yourselves any more than usual, feel sorry for the poor guy that writes it, he has to pay more attention to it than you. As is the custom, it will rain on Friday, July the first, and we will have a cruise. Between showers in the morning we will leave--around ten. Between showers at noon, we will eat, around twelve. Between showers in the afternoon, we 'will sail around off our point of eating lunch. Between showers in the evening we will come home, around six. Sounds entertaining doesn't it? But won't it be wonderful it if rains?! Double puncuation is wrong they say; (also the Quakers ;said fire arms were wrong.) ; The racing on Sunday p.m. was really magnificent! All skippers Therefore be it resolved that the County Council of the County of | Bruce hereby requests the Department of Public Welfare to take immediate ' steps to amend the Children's Frotec-' tion Act so that the said 256% grant will be made applicable to Counties such as ours which raise funds for Children's Aid purposes by taxation." There was no action taken on a re- solution from Prince Edward County to ask the Province to increage the ward payment to a minimum of $2 per day as a needed assistance to hospitals and municipalities, The Chairman of Finance and the Clerk were authorized to attend the convention 6f Ontario Municipal As- sociation at London on Aug, 29-80-81, It was recommended that the $10,000 Forgery and Cheque Alteration Bond be renéwed for three years: at a pre- mium,of $30.00. The Worknten's Compensation In- surance was renewed at an estimated | premium of $602.91, The, Clerk-Treasurer was author- ized to engage a temporary sten-. {ographer for his offee for a salary, of | per week, drove their boats to, and beyond, the limit of their ability. We know of three boats that sustained slight damage and one that is unservicable as a result of tough going. We think that Lake Scugog breeds better sailors than any other body of water. Not only are the common perils of seafaring encountered, but here, one must be able to contend with mud killing speed, and weeds, killing more speed, and the boat's power to man- euver, Steps should be taken to rec- tify matters that are discouraging to the most enthusiastic. Speaking of racing, you junior members; where do you hide your WHAT EVER YOU DO DON'T MISS.

An average congregation attended the Sunday School Anniversary ser- vice on Sunday afternoon. Mr, King, of Epsom, gave a splendid message, and Mrs. Kennedy, of Port Perry, sang two solos, "Bless this house" and little selves when crews are being sought ? When and if you get to skippering you will feel like utter fools having a girl show you clean heals every time you race her: by virture of better seamanship, not necessarily a better boat. That girl is 'Georgia Brock, and mark these words, she has the makings of a first' rate sailor, Experience with her has' shown us that! Come on out of hid- ing and learn something about this sailing business; that -means you | Buddy, Jack, Stan, Bobby, Joan, Lois | and all the rest of you. There is more to racing-than sailing a boat so make yourselves familiar with all aspects of both racing and sailing. Come on, don't be afraid of wet feet, that won't hurt you.
