Jo Carson Ini Port Hope Guide The United Counties Council la working hard on concrete plans for a proposed new Homne for the Aged before the April session. It would appear that the public relations between the town cf Cobourg and the Coun- ties Councîl are distorting the true picture. No particular gift cf insight is required to see the hackles rise when the twe bo- dies get tegether. But more important la the effeet cf the antagonism on the progress of the United Counities. And ne matter from which angle the Picture àa viewed it peints te no goed if the county seat and the Counties don't beth corne down off their zespective high herses. The new Counties Home, in spite cf the humanities, must be regarded at the present stage as another order cf busi- iness. It la useless for the Coun- ties Council te look for some salve te heal its stinging con- science. Maybe if it admitted that it was stampeded into the new Counties Administration building before aemething was done te alleviate conditions for the aged, the confession would be good for the seul. Logical Plan The Counties had a logicali plan for a new home present-1 ed in 1954 by ne less a person than, at that time, the head of the Health and Welfare De-1 partment cf Ontario. The Hon.1 W. A. Goodfellow auggested that the present House cf Re- fuge be considered for an ad- ministration building and the Counties build a new institu- tion for the aged. A review cf conditions also peints a condemrning finger at the town cf Cobourg which re- fused te take the responsibili- ties cf a geod landlord and was bluntly told as much by the Municipal Board cf Ontario. The important fact that creat- ed the rush for the new Coun- ties' Building la being over- looked. BOTH THE TOWN 0F COBOURG AND THE UNIT- ED COUNTIES ARE RESPON- SIBLE FOR.-THE EXPENDI- TURE ON WILLIAM STREET. The Northurmberland and Dur- ham Law Association 'was menely a wedge in spite cf its threatening writ. Until this peint is looked at frankly there will be ne peaceful negotia- tiens for future developments. Wide Field The picture needs a sharper locus and it covers a wide field. Would it be advisable te move the institution from the county seat. Should the rest cf the United Counties look distrustfuily at dobourg's ap- parent hesitancy te welcome overtures frem the special building committee? Cobourg bas considerable undeve]oped area within its boundaries. It is a mixed biess- ing.

True, such fadilities may bring development but in the mean- time Cobourg's ratepayera would have to foot the bill. On top cf this the Counties' bill to the town, for the actual cost of censtructing the buildings and their maintenance, às a tidy percentage. Temporary Work In return for services Co- bourg may find employment for some of its citizens. During the construction stages there will be temporary work. A pos- sible few would be taken onto a permanent staff, although the feeling expressed here is that it would corne from different parts of the Counties. There would be some local business. Fuel, penishables and other items for the Homre corne te about $40,000 annually. About $10,000 cornes directly to the town and the county seat also benefits indirectly. In the long run Cobourg can rest easier ii the knowledge that the north- west part of the town would be provided with adequate tine protection. The Town cf Cobourg should also fonget the loss of the Ceun- ties Council as tenants of the town hall. Maybe Cobourg rate- payers should spend a littie to keep the Ceunties Home at the ceunty seat. For 100 yeais employees run- ning Counties' business have lived in the town. The jail sup- plies, office stationery, print- ing, law administration and ail the far-reaching ripples of thei economy involving about 30 employees and their familles have brought revenue to Co- bourg. 0f course some of the purchases are spread through- out the Counties. And of course Cobourg has borne the cost of services and schools. But the law of interest must surely have more than balanced the ledger by now. Adequate Land A point of prime importance, and flot mentioned by either body, is that every additional expenditure by the Counties must be paid by each indivi- dual municipality on its per- centage. The United Counties own an adequate piece of land already. Moving the Counties Home can increase the cost of its op- erî'ýon. Mileage alorie to and from the institution is an add- ed expense for jury services, inspections, and the many other necessany contacts be- tween an administration office and its branch of business. Ahl these points should be weighed carefully by ail the munîcipalities in Northumber- land and Durham, and without rancour. There are flot enough pickings in the United Counties for pig-headedness. existing basis cf provincial grants for education was in- equitable. Members claimed that the equalization of assess- ments was being urged throughout the province as a imans of adjusting the present method cf determining educa- tional grants. The association charged that municipalities whlch wero en- ceuraged te make reassess- ments by the Department of Municipal Affaira found them- selves in a state cf being pen- alized by the change-over due te a reduction in the grants. The average attendance grant was aIse cniticized and it was pointed eut that seme munici- palities had lest heavily when an epidemic cf childhocd di- sease kept dewn the pupil at- tendance. Education Minister Dunlop said recently that ln addition to increasing supplementary grants the Gevernment weuld maintain the same level of general payments. Inspiring Address On Vocation ai Service Hêard by Rotary Club An excellent, thought-pro- voking address on vocational service by Rotarian Forbes Heyland, Chairman of the Vo- cational Service Comrnittee, was the highlight cf the regu- lar meeting of the Bowman- ville Rotary Club held in the Balmoral Hetel at noon Friday. The essence cf vocationa] service la found In the Second Object cf Rotary, Mn. Heyland said, which is; "To encourage and foster high ethical stand- ards in business and profession- ai life". "The true test of Ro- tary is found in each Rotarian's occupation in the manner in which. he carnies eut Rotary ideals in his business or profes- sion", the speaker declared. "In other words, vocational service means putting Rotary te work whene you work." A Pjirsonal Thing He pointed eut that vocation- al service la a persenal thing, it must be done by the mndlvi- dual member and there la great opportunity for him.tei do se in every community. "We should each ask ourselves if we respect our place of wonk, on whether it is a place only te put in time and do enaugh just te get by", he said. Many cf us are toc much inside our own job or business te get a neal look at it. Mr. Heyland stated that we need ta withdraw and take a detached look et our- selves, our emrpleyees, custem- ers, clients and even our cein- petitors. In regard te the latter, he stated that if we take the trou- ble ta learn more about our competitons and get te know them, we will probably find that they are just as decent people as we are. Besides this, there is a need for competition. "Golf la a good game, but we need a competiter te make it really interesting," he assertecl. jjt is the same in business" Even in cempetîtive busi- riesses there are trade associa- tions in which the individual members can camne together at conventions and pool their in- formation and ideas. "It is part of your obligation as Rotanians to take ta these trade associa- tions and te your ewn trade on business the high precepts em- eodied in Rotary", he declared. Often trade associations deter- lorate into pressure groups more interested in profits than 1- t t t s i i Newtonville IW.A.

"If this happens the individual should ask himself if it has happened because he did not have the guts te make a stand against this trend", he declar- ed. The same thing can happen at election týme, he declared, if the individual dees not take the trouble to cast his ballot. lInvariabiy Good Faith The translation of the Second Object in Spanish means "In- vaniably gaod faith", the speak- er said, and this is the care of vocatienal service.

The grant for 1958 ln based en the average daily attend- ance during 1955. At the three Public schools the average dai- ly attendance amounted to 964, while the Bowmanville Dis- trict High School had a daily attendance of 485, for a total of 1449 pupils. This added revenue will be welcome by the hard-pressed Public School Board which is currently building a $110.000 six room addition at the Vin- cent Massey School.

The Rotarian who believes in "good faith invariably" will not advertise his pnoducts lnaa misleading way se that advan- tage is taken of the customer, he said. Service above self and ser- vice to oChers is the niotto and foundation pninciple of Rotary, Mr. Heyland declared, and vo- cational service is an integral part of this larger service which has spnead among 420,000 businessmen through the world from. a very amail beginning 50 years age. "Show me the man in any cemmunity who is respected the meat, and I will show you the man who has served the most", Mr. Heyland asserted. "Vocational service is flot a nebulous thlng, but a concrete pattern of behavior based on honesty, good faith and service", he stated. It revolves around the Ro- tary Four-Way Test: Is it the truth? Is it fair te ail concern- ed? Will it buîld goedwill and better, friendships? Will it be beneficial to ail concerned? Thanked By President Mr. Heyland was Introduced and thanked by President Keith Jackson, who complimented him on a very fine and inspir- ing address. Keith Siemon, Chairman of the Play Committee, urged members to make sure they sold their quota of tickets for the Rotary play to be present- ed in the Town Hall auditor- ium on February 16, 17 and 18. Chairman Walter Reynolds announced that the envelopes for the Easter Seals Campaign for Crippled Children would be filled and rnailed on Feb- ruary 28.
