ORMISTON, DAILY TIMES Ha County Council Concluded June Session Last Night Council Lorne That Old Age Pensions Cost $11, 931.75 for the Year-- Will' Not Build New Road to the House of Refuge The June Session of the County Council of the county was brought to a close on Friday night, when a number of reports were presented to the members by the various comn- mittees for approval. While it was not possible to complete the busi- ness of the council during the tour days, that it was in session, all the business that was up for conidera- tion was finished before the coun- cil adjourned to meet again at the call of the Warden. The speed which had been the keynote of the sessions during the last week, was favorably commem- ed upon by Warden John Ross, at the close of the session, when he thanked the members for the co-op- eration which they had given him in clearing up all business and com- pleting the session in a week. Mr. Ross also announced that while he had been unable as yet to. set the date of the annual Warden's picnic, he could assure the members that they would hear from him between now and Christmas. Old Age Pensions The report of the committee on Old Age Pensions which was pre- sented at the afternoon sessiin by Owen Davies, of Uxbridge, showed that the committee had held four meetings since the first of the year, at which forty-nine applications were received and thirty-six passed. Mr. Davies stated that the county had expended $11,931.75 on a twen- tv per cent. basis between October 30th, 1930 and April 30th, 1931, SUMMER COTTAGE FOR RENT On Tobin's Island, Muskoka, near Assembly Inn.

The report also show ed that eighteen pensioners had died between January 26th, 1931 and May 29th, 1931, Mileage and Per Diem The committee on mileage and per diem brought in their report on Friday evening through their chairman Allan Lavis, The réport was adopted as read by the Council and was not carried to the commit- tee-of-the-whole. The report re- commended payment to the mem- bers approximately $750 at the rate of $5 a day -and mileage. County Property The report of the committee on County property which was present- ed to council by R. M. Devereil provoked the most discussion and much comment was heard before the most discussion and much com- ment was heard before the report was finally adopted. The recom- mendation which brought out the most heated controversy, was 'that no action be taken at present on the work of constrqucting a new road from the Kingston Road to the House of Refugé. It was pointed out that the pre- sent approach to the refuge was in- direct and that a road from the main highway with suitable gates would be a great improvement, A. W. Jackson stated that the work could be done with very little cost to the county as the Town of Whit- by would 'be willing to loan their tractor' free of charge while he felt that the town would give the gravel for the road from their pit. It was pointed out that the work would not be commehced until the fall and that practically all the labor would be done by: the men at the refuge. The members of the council, how- ever, did not wish to add to the ex- pense of the taxpayers and adopted the recommendation of the commit- tee that no action be 'taken. The committee also recommend that the matter of a caretaker for the registry office be left to the county property committee. While adopted, it was given a stormy pas- sage. Mr. Deverell stated that Dr. Moore wanted a caretaker who would come in%on Saturdays and clean up the floors, which had re- ceived very little attention since the new wing was opened. Several members of the council took exception to the recommenda- tion as they considered that the registry office was bringigg in a very small amount of revenue to the county. Others thought that it I'would be suitable to use some of the men who were confined in the county jail,' while other members considered that the value of" the papers in the building made this out of the question even if they were under supervision, The committee also recommended the purchase of a small file for the office of Judge Ruddy and repairs to the boiler in the courthouse as well as the erection of a new porch for the governor's residence at the jail. Accounts amounting to $424.65 were ordered paid by the council. Roads and Bridges A. L. Chapman, chairman of the committee on Roads and Bridges reported that the bridges within the confines of the county had been inspected and the committeg recom- mended the expenditure of moneys for repairs on the various bridges and also the payment of several ac- counts. The committee also recommended that the county solicitor, A. E. This Space Boeserved Dixon Coal Co. Ambulance Service Day and Night Phone 1082w Oshawa Burial Co. M. F.

Flowers Appreciated Many of the visitors to the Coun- ty ' Council on Friday made favor- able comment concerning the beaut- iful bouquet of Iris and Tulips that adorned the Warden's desk. At the Friday evening session, it was re- vealed that the bouquet was the gift, to the Warden, of the small daughter of D. J. Kean, county road superintendent. The gitt did not go without notice and the council re- cognized the thoughtfulness of the donog for the way it had brightened up the council chamber. ADRIFT ON RAFT, TOTS ARE RESCUED Frank Kelleher Swims Out and Tows Them to Shore Toronto, June 6.--Adrift on a raft 150 yards off shore in the lake' at the foot of Victoria Park Avenue yesterday afternooh, Rita Lappin, aged 14, of 153 Silver- birch Avenue, and her brother, Billy, aged 12, were réscued by Frank Kelleher, aged 27, of 20 Lawlor Avenye. The children were in bathing suits, and were playing on the raft, when a strong offshore wind carried it out into the lake. Kelle- her, seeing the children in diffi- culty, swan out and towed the raft on which the children were sitting, to the beach. In the meantime a call was sent into the eBach Life-Saving Station. 'When Officer Appleton and crew arrived the children haod been taken from the raft and were standing on the beach. Neither was in the least fright- ened. They went home, and did not mention the affair until their mother stated the Life-Saving Station had telephoned = her. Speaking to The Globe, Mrs. Lap- pin said the children spent most of their playtime at the water- front. "Rita is a good swimmer, and could easily have swam a- shore, She did not want to leave the raft for fear her younger bro- ther. would become frightened," she said. Mrs. Lappin said she felt very appreciative of Kelle- her's action and would endeavor to locate him and express her thanks. OPEN WHEAT SALE WIDELY APPROVED 89 Pool Locals Out of 94 Agree on New Winnipeg, Tine 6. -- Directors of the Manitoba Wheat Pool had before them yesterday the official returns for the pool of farmer- members which permitted the al- teration of the existing contracts and sanctioned the optional open- market plan of selling. Under the new system the Pool members can obtain full spot price for wheat and coarse grains, Instead of taking the Co-opera- tive's regular initial payment, if the present market is not satis- factory, the,grower may take an advance and give instructions to hold the grain to his order, The grain, however, must be marketed through Manitoba Pool Elevators Limited. Eighty-nine of the 94 Pool lo- cals approved of the change, ac- cording to the official returns is- sued yesterday.

The third epoch was one of prevention er anticipation, when man learned that disease was not a punish- ment for his sin but rather the re- | sult of neglect or ignorance of health laws. The development of mental hygiene was due large- ly to the modern factory system, when problems of sanitation pre- sented themselves and had to be solved for safety, This was the beginning of preventive measures in whose wake followed paved streets, great public utilities and other things that rendered life of to-day more comfortable and happy. Along with this there bad grown up a system of restrictions, men being taught that they must be willing to sacrifice some things, even through the process of law, for the benefit of others, Then, too, disease has been sought out with new vigor and effort, with the result that such diseases as smallpox ( yellow fever have prac- tically disappeared, while diphth- eria has lost a great deal of its | terror. Dr. Bryan pointed out, how- | ever, that within the last decaue | men had been thinking along an- other in solving health problems. They had discovered that environ- ment must not only be taken c of, but the individual himself. We are essentially part of some other human being, ~qrrying a | disease or displaying a nasty tem- per. Both were contagious. Men- | tal hygiene sought to find out why in so many ways men and women did not get along. = Human beings were prone not to look into their own lives. Mental hygiene exist- ed to determine the motives wiyich actuated men 2nd women in every- day life. It had been retarded because of its enormous complex- ity and because of the reluctance of humankind towards self-exam- ination. It was interasted in fec- ble-minded people, criminals, pun- pers, and souzht to determine why these existed. Dr, Prvon stated that 51 per cent. of the hospital beds in the United States were for mentai disorders; that twenty per cent. of aN the taxation in his state was for \ mental pationts; that one out of 25 spent some time in mental hospitals, and that men | and women were entering the hospitals at the rate of 40,000 a year. Fifty per cent. sufiered from the insanity of adolescence, young men and women mentally deficient early in life. The men- | tal disorders problem would never be solved by the erectinz of new | hospitals. People must pavse | and reflect and see if there is not | some better way. To this hetter | way there were three possible ¢ oh proaches, Dr. Bryan stated. first was research. The millions spent in hospital buildings might well be applied to research. The second was prevention. A lot needed to be done among the ehil- dren. The patients of the future for our mental hospitals were with us now. Mental hygiene work of the future must be carried on by everybody who comes in coniact with humankind. The third ap- proach was to take some patients from the hospitale, place them out and follow them up. Mental hygiene must find out why people were criminals. This problem would not be solved by building more jails. The same applied to the care of the feeble-minded, not merely those confined to our insti- tutions. If all the feeble-minded were taken in ten per cent. of the population would be locked up, he said. Addressing the nurses, Dr, Bryan stated that he looked tg them to spread the gospel that man is not a machine. Nursing and medicine were science. and art, and it, took ten per cent. of art to develop the 90 per cent. of science. Dr. Bryan made an ap- peal to all within his hearing to join the crusade for mental health, Every individual, he stated, must play a part. Every man should know himself better and also the members of his fam- ily and all with whom he associ- ated himself. Br. W. M. English noted the progress made by the hospital which he had followed since its inception, and congratulated the superintendent, staff and graduat- ing nurses on their success. He stated that Miss Bryan, superin- tendent of nurses, was noted for her work both in Canada and the United States. Congratulatory addresses to the graduates were delivered by Ma- yor C. E. Bowman on behalf of the council and citizens of Whit- by; Dr. W. M. English, president of the American Psychiatric As- sociation; Mr. Samuel Trees, chairman of the Hospital Board of Visitors; Dr. B. T. McGhie, for- merly of Orillia, and now director of hospital services for Ontarfe, and Dr. J. M, Forster, of Oak- ville, superintendent emeritus of the Ontario Hospital at Whitby. Interesting Announcement In presenting the diplomas to the nurses, Mr, H. M. Robbins, deputy minister of health, hospi- tals branch, expressed regret that the Minister of Health, Hon. Dr. J. M. Robb was unable to be pres- ent owing to many pressing du- ties. ' He paid high tribute to the superintendent and staff of the hospital, and to the enviable rec- ord of the nurses who had gone forth from the institution. Mr. Robbins, in presenting the diplo- mas, was assisted by Mrs, F. Rob- inson, of the Board of Visitors and Mrs. Stevenson, wife of the super- intendent. The Alumnae Asso- ciation gifts were presented by Mrs. (Dr.) Forster. Mr. Robbins made the intergst- ing announcement that whereas pithew in in the past graduates of mental || hospitals were required to take a six months' 'graduate course in general hospitals this order in future was to be reversed. Nurses now in general hospitals would spend some time in training in mental hospitals, Following the graduation exer- | Cenference aft | sets 1123 Brock St. E | 2642, | tomatoes, a 'Bowmanville News Was Luncheon Speaker Rotarian D., R.
