It was first suggested that the two townships volunteer equal amnounts of equipment to do the job but D. A. Gorrie, Municipal Highways, who was present at the' meeting, advised that the work be done on a straight dol- lars and cents basis and that either the East Whitby or Dan-ý ington Road Superintendent be placed in charge o! the opera- tion. Suggestion Adopted Both parties feit that Mr. Gor- rie's suggestion should be adopt- ed since there was a possibility that one township's equipment may break down on -one town- ship may not do their full share o! tbe work. Following is the agreement moved by Coun. Charles Os- borne, seconded by Coun. Arthur Blanchard and approved by the Darlington Council: -That we enter into an agreement with East Whitby Township for the construction of the Town Line Rond across the 8tb Concession o! Danlington and the '7tb Con- cession o! East Whitby and that the two road supenintendents estimate the cost o! construction and graveiiing between the two townships. Equipment from each township is ta be- used la an equalized cost basis. It is sug- gested that wonk be under the supervision o! T. Steward." The, Darlington Council felt that Tom Steward, Darlington Road Superintendent, should be in charge, as Dariington will maintain the road aften it is com- pleted. This agreement will be sent to the East Whitby Council for their approval. Darlington Taxes To Go Up; Blqme Heavy School, Road Costs L The initial discussion of the 1956 Darlington Township buci- get at last Thunsday's Council meeting indicated that the township residents wiil be fac- ed with a substantial increase ln the miii rate for the coming yea r. Reeve Roy Nichais voiced the somewhat pessimistic opinion Bowmanville, were compietely taken by surprise last Thursday evening, Feb. 16, when their family dnopped la ta heip them celebrate thein 4Oth wedding anniversary.

Thein many fniends in Blackstock aiso ex- tend their congratulations.

There were: Mn. and Mrs. G. Faint, Vaienie, Vickie, Janie, Kathy and Cnissy, Mn. and Mns. David Fainthonne and Billy, Toronto; Mn. Frank Wright and Grant, Bowmanvilie; Mr. and Mrs. A.

Their gifts included a pop-up toaster, an electric fry-pan, an iran and ironing board, couch cover, radia lamp, two cups and saucers and four snack sets. A bountiful supper was served and a very happy time enjoyed. that Darlington taxes would soon be as high as those in Oshawa but the Daniington taxpayen would not have any o! the benefits there such as sidewalks and sewers. The main reason for this tax increase, lie expia ined, was the large num- ber of familles with schoal-age children who are fiocking into the township and building pon types o! homes which have low assessment values. "One-haif of aur taxes are gaing inta schoals," hie stated. 'We must sto p this pon 'type o! builden or we wiii neyer get the gaod type la the town- ship." Ail o! the council agnecd that a higher standard o! build- ing by-laws shouid be drawn Up. J Heavy Road Program for 1956 besides the schools xviii be roads. Deputy-Reeve Garnet Riekard and Coun. Ross Stevens -felt that a plan of road construction should be made and put dinectly into the bud- get. Mr. Riekard believed that the only way to improve the roads was to give themn a bard top coat. -To try and keep them up any other way would ho a waste of money", be stat- ed. In regard to what roads should be repaired, Coun. Charles Osborne stated that the propen thing to do is ta pave the sinal1 stretches where there are a great deal o! bouses, and also take into consideration the people who have a long distance to travel every day. There is a rumour being cir- culated that the Department of Highways may build a road through the township, but Coun. Arthur Blanchard ne- minded the council that they bave no assurance that the De- partment is going to build this road, Coun. Ross Stev ens tbought that the main anteny roads are not in too bad shape. Receive More Wear Deputy-reeve Rickard point- ed outt that the Darlingtoa noads receive more wean than the surrounding townships' roads, since nesidents in these other townships must ail use Darlington noads ta go to work in Oshawa. The budget will funthen be discussed at the next sitting o! the council. Christian Sci Lecture at O On Healing :ience )shawa iGrace Healthien, bappier, more abundant living is available ta aIl today in the degree these goals are sought ln the spirit- ual understanding of God, man, and the universe, Harv B. MacRae of Dallas, Texas, said in a Christian Science lec- ture delivered in Oshawa on Feb. l2'th. Something more than a reli- gious philosophy is needed ta heai the sick, redeem the sin- ner, and solve the probiems o! daiiy living, Mr. MacRae main- tained.
