trained truth of the matter is they can be trained they are being trained and they will continue to be trained dependant on the support of the p blic in their cause it has only been since the end of the war that an interest has been taken in these child ren small but hopeful bands of parents get together and decided to do something about their retarded children and through their faith and determimnalron schools were star ted and the mentally handicapped child is now being recognized by a society that once shunned him it happened locally when in 1955 a group of milton parents gathered to discuss a school for their children who were unable to attend classes in public schools they star ted their work with three pupils a teacher and only a handful of adult backers today they have 10 pupils enlarged quarters a teacher and a principal and over 100 mem bers of the association their pupils include five from milton three from acton one from municipal affairs have grown more com plex as the field of services has grown and expanded it is becoming increasingly diffi cult for men with full time obs to take on what is m effect a part time ob of municipal or community service a breath of fresh air was blown over the picture in about 1954 though when the three towns of acton milton and georgetown de cided to wipe out animosities and sit down regularly to consider problems that were mutual end on which each might offer guid ence to the others thus was the north hal ton urban board formed during the intervening five years the board unofficial as it is has weathered storms cooperatively cons dered such sub ects as full time engineers extended tele phone service industrial promot on natural gas contrac s fire fighting areas dog control and a host of other subjects that affected the three municipal t es lacking any leg slat on that would pro- vide for establishing such a board the esquesmg and one from trafalgar and there is the possibility that in the near future five more pupils from the district will be en rolled for classes next step up their ladder of achievement is a now school where the pupils may be instructed in the proper surroundings and wilh the proper equipment the milton and district association for retarded children has declared november 15 to 26 as retarded children s week in north halton to coincide with the national observance during this week an effort is be ing made to acquaint district residents with the work of the association the public in formation campaign will be followed with a fund raising campaign which has two goals to offset a nearly 700 deficit on the i960 budget of operations and to start a 10 15 000 sinking fund for the building campaign next year give generously when the visitor calls at your home remember

entirely unofficial it has no power except that of reference of subects back to the individual councils for their considered action stih it has accomplished a surprising amount on saturday evening the three councils their wives and municipal officials held an annual dinner that strengthened the fellow ship and cooperative spirit of the north halton urban board if it came to drawing battle lines on individual communfty prob lerns we have no doubt each member would defend his municipality s position but this is commonly understood and accepted several speakers spoke for the continua t on of the north halton urban board reconv mending it to future councils this we can endorse if it continues on its informal basis because in this it becomes to our mind a study group on municipal affairs in these days of complex municipal problems nothing is more important to local officials than the sudy group referred to as the north halton urban board i presume the wimp is true in cimdn
