time like a gathering of an economic society as coun cillors used alegbry to get across some pet ideas on higher economics cr ern hyde ied the payasyougo fbrces as he objected to debenruring a 3000 expendi ture which he said should be paid from current tax revenue mr hyde argued that when debentures are issued it takes half as much money again to pay for what you get that experts like a bond cor poration with which the town is doing business has warned that thesovris debenture debt must be watched and that debentures should be is sued only when there s a large expenditure which it is impossible to finance currently he compared the town to an individual who can get mired in debt by too much buying on the instalment plan and passes a point where his in stalment paymeijrs do not leave enough of his weekly income for ordinary living expenses the other side of the argument was led by the mayor who does not believe current tax payers should be charged for improvements which future generations will enjoy paying such things from current revenue will in effect in crease taxes today so that in future the tax bur den will be lighter he believes furthermore says the mayor there are so many small things which have to be done like this 3000 storm sewer that cumulatively they can mount to a large figure cr hydes answer is that a town must only have what it can afford an individual may have to drive an old car even though it needs repair and even though upkeep may be costing more than it should charity canvassing can annoy trie mayor countered by saying that when the condition- of a car endangers others- one must have a new one like all debatable questions both sides of the argument have their merit it is true that we are living today in an age of instalment buying and that it is proper for people to enjoy a certain amount of the worlds goods without waiting to save the money to pay for them it is equally true that one can reach a dan ger point where too high a percentage of income is being paid in carrying charges an individual whose income tends to fol low a predictable pattern finds it relatively easy to decide what he can and cannot afford a town especially a growing one has a much harder time for both tax income and expense can vary widely perhaps georgetown would be wise to hire some economist to make a study of town financ ing with recommendation about what should be debentured and what should not advice as to how far the town can go in instalment buying and what we should purchase from current tax money perhaps council wih have to be brave in future and instead of the usual penny pinch ing when the tax rate is struck assess some extra money for such things as the debateel storm sew er it is certainly true that we get what we pay while i wa sa patient in st jos- last sunday saw the local legion branch no 120 hold their annual picnic in stanley pa e a crowd that was estimated by the park managercharlle overland at alomst

7330o georgetowners preview ten commandments will you be raking in 10000- 15 years from now opposition to charity groups soliciting dona tions from qakville merchants has been expres sed by the chamber of commerce in that town after a meeting at which several businessmen ex pressed concern at the frequency of such canvass ing and the amount asked for from time to time we have heard similar opinions from local businessmen and we sym pathize with them this is not to say that we do not appreciate the motives of those who are em- bued wih a desire to raise funds for a worthy public service their appeal is always in good faith but all too often they lose sight of the fact that in trying to raise money from the public they are asking an undue amount from one seg ment of it service clubs are particularly prone to press their businessmen members into sharing costs of an advertisement or a program which in the end means that the businessman member is pay ing an extra assessment in dues compared with his nonbusiness brother here however it rs a private matter and a merchant joining a serv ice club is prepared to pay this extra willingly or at least passively when canvassing really starts to hurt is when a faithful member of a ladies club a church group a farm organization approaches a merch ant witbwhom they deal for an dffering of goods to be raffled given away or won as a prize at anything from a church bazaar to a euchre party several members of the herald staff and local clergy attended a for and no georgetown taxpayer can expect to special preview- of the ten corn-

paramount news give inter esting sidelights on the filming expedition in egypt to make the mammoth movie the ten commandments for sheer spectacle has never been surpassed in the movie world i telling the biblical story of moses from his birth to the revelation on the mountain top its thrilling scenes combine the highest art of filming with a story well- known but ever new starring roles are played by charlton hes- ton as moses and yul brunner as pharaoh and the cast includes such personalities as yvonne de carlo and debra paget one or two of these small touches is only a flea bite and a merchant will shrug it off with hardly a thought but when the fleas assume the prop ortions of an invasion of locusts the luckless bus inessman begins to wonder one cannot make an absolute statement that all such canvassing is wrong but one can cer tainly say that all such canvassing is not right if donations by merchants are used as part of a plan to raise a large amount of money for a certain charity then we wont quibble with the idea but if they are used to provide prizes for a small lucky draw or a small party whose proc eeds are little more than the value of the mer chandise donated then we say the system is be ing abused the merchant in this case is mere ly subsidizing a party for which those attending should have paid a higher entrance fee a pet peeve of ounown with which no lady will agree is the customary bake sale or church i supper here a pie which costs the donor 50c in in gredients and time is cheerfully sold for the same and woe to any group which would ask a dollar for the pie and yet the lady buy ing it should be agreeable to making a donation too rather than just purchasing merchandise at its market value and incident doin you can rake in this kind of
