AUGUST 3rd, 1933 Generous Response to Rotary Fair The generous support accarded the Rotai-y Club at its annual carnival last Wednesday must be most gratifymng ta members af the club and aIl those crip- pied, underprivileged and undernourished children who have received help thraugh the club. The Ro- tary Club is primarily a service club, and the service it s rendering its community is being recognized by the support of the public in its annual appeal. Over $4000 was contributed ta the cause through the variaus efforts put farth at the Carnival, the largest amount ever naised by the Club in its nine years af histony. The ensuing year will see the con- tinuation of the good work that has been started, and those who have generously supported the Club in its wark, may rightfully laok an the wark as their own. for without thei- support it could flot be carried out. It is ta be haped that aIl needy crippled cases in the imnmediate cammunity will receive the aid of the Club, which was retarded considerably last year through lack of funds. Doing Something for OId Home Town An editanial unden the caption 'Back Home" in the Financial Post, carrites a suggestion that m.igbt well be passed on ta former residents af every town and village in Ontario, namely, that they, if financially able..shauld make some tangible contribution to the progress af the community in which they spent their younger days. Many 0f the smaller places in Ontario are in need o! improvements of one kind or another and would heantily welcome such gifts. The Post says: -A Canadian citizen motared through a little Ontario village the ather day and was struck by the natural beauty of!*the pace. Hle thought ta himself how attractive Ihis comrnunity could be i intelligent planning were under-.aker, to er.sune orderly. artistic grawtb. Then he bethiouzht hurnself of the many boys and girls who mus: have grown Up in this quiet village and gone out to the langer cities af the Do- minion and the continent zo achieve fame and for- tune for themiselves. Our- citizen mused that it would be a fine thing for that little community-and for many hundreds 0f others like it-if sorne of the successful boys and girls would take thought for~ their child.hood home and make some tangible contribu- tion for its future welfare and development. 0f course there may be diffilculties. Small cammunities are of ten unappreciative o! gestures af goodwill from those wbo would and could assist them. Too 0f 1er. there is indifference. litile tbanks poksi- tion and criticism. At any ra i Worth trying. In retunn for thec. lation' and 'good work well don uadS e< z ay- will be small. Perhaps the h Me 18j i3 ,ul uave in mind is the very place which stanteu-,oui citizen thinking." Boy Scouts an Asset to a Community On Thuusday night, the newly formed Hampton Boy Scout Troop presented their initial concert un Hampton Cburch shed. The purpose ai the concert was ta present ta the villagers o! Hampton a know- ledge ai what scouting s, and what it produces. Some are skeptical of the scout organization on the grounds that it is militanistic. Natbing could be further frorn the truth. The Boy Scout organisation is known as the great Brotherbood of the Outdos. Every scout recognizes other scouts as bis brother, so tbat a 'worldwide system ai braîberbood cornes into being, because scouting s carried on if practically every country in the world. Tbis brotherhood, luke tbat ai Rotai-y International, plays an important part in the pieservation ai worlct peace. Tue ideals contained in the scout promise and the scout law are ideals that the Master himself exempli- fied while on earth. He was loyal to bus God and his King. He was kind and courteous to aIl. and He cansidered everyone bis brother. He tent about do- ing that wbicb was good. in fact Cbrist's whole lufe poi-îrayed what the truc scout lii e should be. If Christ bad been a boy today, we rigbt well presurne that He too, wauld have been a Boy Scout. The village ai Hampton shouil benefit by tbe ad- dition of a Scout Troop to ils organisations, just as Bowmanville bas beneftted by having within its con- fines a troop. Ernest Clarke, the Hampton Scout- master. is wortby ai the fullest support af the com- munity in the woik be s endeavoring to do with tbe young life of tbat community. Calis County Council a Rubber Stamp The Winchester Press, its editor a membLr ai County Council, suggests in referring ta Simcoe County Cauncil's decîsion favoning abolition o! Grand Juries, that the sarne should be done with the -Rub- ber Starnp called the County Council." Contunuing Editar Ross says, '*outside county roads and county praperty they have flot any control, and even aI that tbey are an expen- ive luxury, that give a certain few a littie extra when tbey serve on committees aI $5.00 per day plu.s mileage. The Counties Road comînittee does practically what the Road Superintendent ne- conimencla. The county properîy coinniîltee recorn- mends cert ain improvements and the xliole work could be done and îs now mostly dune by paid offic- ials oi the council. If it w.ee not for the vigilance and iaithfulnes 0 f the counties officiaIs, outry councils would be un a soi-ny mess." We agree with Editor Ross, but wbile ive belueve that Caunities Councîls should, and evcntually will be abolished, we cannot he]p but admire the steps be- ing madle thus yeair by Warden Rickard ta dut ex- pendilures in Northumberland and Durham. He ap- pointed but anc man, ex-Reeve Alfred Eagleson, as a Cenetery Committee. when the act permits three men, wbich will mean a small saving in day salaries and mileage. By drastic cutting o! estimates and adberence ta strict economies Wanden Rickard bas sligbtly ieduced taxes, but mare important is that he lias paved the way for greater economies in tbe fut- ure. Another Appeal to Clean Up Weedi Recently an appeal was made ta citizens byA Baker. local Weed Inspector, ta dlean Up weeds private property throughout the town. In some p of the town this work has been carried outv despatch and thoroughness, but in other parts. ticularly the South Ward, littie heed has been ta of the appeal. There is no desire ta, be hard on people or put ti to addecl expense at a time when they can I afford it, but the law regard.ing weeds must be he ed. or the, praperty owners forced ta pay in ti taxes, for municipal weeding. It is very difficult citizens who have been public. spirited enough to away wîth this nuisance, ta have ta put up with inconvenience of unsightly weed patches of nei bors. Bowmanville bas too fine a reputationw town af beauty. ta be lost because a few are heed of weed regulations. Unless immediate impraven is noted the town is entitled to have the work dc and the cost paid by the property owner. There few who are flot able ta spare an hour ta dot necessary work. According to, the act. personsi fulfilling the requirements of the act are hiable tc fine. A littie pride of citizenship would previ either the inconvenience of added taxes or the r( essity of charges being laid. Just Another Political Party One af the chie! objections to the CanadianC operative Commonwealth party platfarm, sayst Timinins Advance. is the fact. that it deals anly adverse criticism and in generalities that mean nal ing. The C.C.F., as the party members caîl the: selves, offer much in the way of destructive cor ment, but are crirninally vague as ta, the means ai rnethods by which betterment would be attempti under the C.C.F. programme. Everything is wron they dry, but what tbey intend ta do ta introdu, thein new Eden is not set forth in any af their u terances. Take the nationalisation of the banks. fg instance. This is one o! their pet promises. Ho could it be acccmplisbed? Is such a thing posaitý without assuring other things that even the C.C.] pretend to desire ta avoid by all means? Then thei is that other plank ai the C.C.F.-that one 50 uncti ausly rolled round ai C.C.F. lips-that one abot having production for service and not for profit What does it mean? How can it be effected? Nc a C.C.P. speaker has given a bînt as ta bow thi wonderful thing might be brought to pass. "'Goo governrnent." "no graf t," -careful administration, -consideration for common people," these are ail ju. phrases that mean nothing. They have been use by every party. If it is angued that other partie were flot sincere. it can be replied that the C.C.F.i nothing more than just another party, and its sir cerity is accordingly as much open to questiona that af any other group. Indeed, considering th~ record ai the leaders of tbe C.C.F.. the public will b ill-aclvised, indeed. ta treat them seriously. Facta Should Be Made Known Says Judgg A little boy only nine 'years aId was sentenced t, t-wýo and a bahf years for stealing. Since then he ha cast the taxpayers ai Canada thousands, for he ha been sent down for variaus short termis and final ta Kingston for ten years, wbich he is now servini for wounding while resisting ai-iest for thef t. Thi Attorney-Gencu ai o! Ontario objected ta these fact! caming out, but Judge Evan H. McLean, o! Picton and forrnerly ai Bowrnanville, trying recent peni- tentiary iaters, insisted that Colonel Keiller Mac. Kay, crown prosecutor, should not suppress thern Years ago anotheir little boy o! the samne age tooka gold signet ring. He soon. tired af it because be could flot exchange it for candy. He sold it to an aider boy for a penny. which he immediately spent on sugar sticks. Wben faund out be was not sentenced. Just warned and told he would be severely punished il he took things that did not belong ta him. That boy is today one o! Canada's most nespected national figures. Many Canadians could tell much the saine atonies from their own use! ul lives. Has Unique Election Plank New,spaperîinen in Canada ai-e particularly inter- ested in the new and unique election plank recently announced by Hugh Savage, publisher o! the Cowicban Leader. wbo is an independent candidate in the forthcom-ing provincial electians for Cawicban- Newcastle. Editor Savage is a former president o! the Canadian Weekly Newspaper Association, and announces that bis platforn 1 " absolute hanesty, absolute purity, absolute unself1sbness, anu4 absolute love." He is a follower ai the Oxford gnoup and an- nounces that he s a changed man. In a frank speech hie declared: "If you want ta put me,' be said, .aou bave got ta know wbat sort o! man 1 arn and I have cbanged. I have discovered-I know-tbat the only remedy for this depression will corne by the individtîal altering bis views. It us no use cbanging the Gavernment unless we change ourselves. My paper, by ils matto," lie cantinued, "is pledged ta religion, liberty and law. If you want ta vote for nie tbink af that. I have no ather platformn and I inake no promise. But yet, I have a platform. It is Ibis: Absolute banesty, absalute purity, absolute un- selfishness. absalute lave. These are my standards. Help nie ta try to live up to them and try to live up ta tbem yauirselves." Mn. Savage pled'ged birnself ta fight "this accui-sed patronage Ihat rnakes even the poor devils an the roads ta-day bow ta the foreman ior fear ai their jobs." Mr. Savage fallowed this avawal with a new idlea in politicai carnpaign finance. He announces that his friends mnust naise bis funds among tbem- selves and further that he proposes to distribute mnost ai bus s<ssional indemnity, if elected, among the charuties of hîs riding, keeping anly enougb for ex- penses. The n*esult of Mi-. Savage's campaign will be watched %vith interest. The rî,each season s almost with us, and soon the town wxill be ave r-i-un witb peddlers, selling this fruit fi-rm dooir to door. It is the duty o! citizens ta make sure Ihat Ihese men are the grawers or direct agents of the grawers, Otherwise tbey must pay a iicense ta the town. TMe more licenses taken out, the les -taxes for local people ta pay, but btter still the mnore fruit purchaaed f romn local tax-paying dealers tbe casier it will be for the taxpayer ta meet bis semi-annual paymients. ,Mpt A6, C.
