~~~-Er--T 1~., i -w I Joey is a baarding baby; he doesn't have a home of his own. Lots of folks would like ta have Joey - ta adopt him and lave him but Joey isn't ready yet - he's sort of "on prabation" until Social Workers, Doctors and Psychologists find out just what kind af a fellaw hie is. Joey's mother isn't married and the can't provide the home she knows he shouid have; that is why Joey is a boarding baby. The Children's Aid Society is sympathetic with Jaey's mother; the %workers want ta do what is best for her - and af course, for Jaey. The Society already has a number ef couples in mmnd who wauid lave this littie fellow as their own but arranging things takes time - and talent, too. This Society - supported by gavern- ment subsidies (municipal and pro- 'vincial), financial appeais and endaw- rnents - wants ta make certain their children are plaoed in proper homes. That is why much must be iearned about babies and their prospective par- ents. Joey may think a lot of it is uilly but psychologists know from thousands of cases what reactions are normal. During the testing period, maybe four months, Joey is boarded in a home that can give him what, the littie tyke needs most - lave and care. The woman with whom he is stayla knows ail about this sort of thing;iher, own children are older now, happy and weli orientated. Tht Social Worker visits Joey frequently and his foster mother takes hlm ta the Dactar for regular check-ups. Joey doesn't realize it yet but he's lucky in a way for when Jaey leaves his boarding mother and gots ta live permanentiy in a -home he will cal his awn, tht care taken by the Society will make pretty certain it is tht right ont. This is tht type of work that yaur Children's Aid Society of Northumber- land and Durham is carrying on from day ta day. Make yaur contribution today ta tht Children's Aid Society of Northumberland and Durham. It needs your financial assistance ta continue its great work.

They Have Served Us WeII Last week, His Worship Mayor Wilfrid Carruthers announced that he would be retiring from municipal politics when his term was completed this year. On Tuesday, came a surprise second announcement that Milton J. Elliott, Chairman of the Bowmanville Public Utîlities Cmiso, had also decided ta step down ta make way for a younger successor. Both of these public spirited citizens have made tremendous contributions ta this community, expending unbeliev- able amounts of tinie and energy on behaîf of their fellow citizens with barely token monetary compensation. Unless we are very much mistaken, bath of them would do it ail over again under similar circumstances, not only because they would feel it a duty, but because they have faund rewarding satisfaction in serving this cammunity in their variaus capacities. Mayor Carruthers although much junior in age and service to Mr. Elliott had been an able councillor and mem. ber of the town's executive. He has displayed leadership attributes which have made his years af service worth- while ones for Bowmanviiie. During ail his 13 years on council, he has been in the forefront of progressive measures which have kept this community's serv- ices and administration at a high level. His gaing will leave a gap which will be difficult ta fi. Mr. Elliott's period of publie serv- ice extends well over a quarter of a century. He has been on the Publie Utilities for 23, years, was mayor for three years and before that served four years as reeve, two as-deputy and one year on council. Ht was aiso Warden of the United Counties in 1927. He, toa, has fulfilled his duties with integ- rity, resourcefulness and great ability. Both men have extended their YELVERTON spirit of public service not aniy ta civic affairs, they also have played-important raies in church and other organizations. How tither of them had time for much home lufe as well is ont of those im- ponderable mysteries which seem ta be connected with great public service. It might well be said that here, as in many instances, they are blessed with understanding and helpfui wives. As Mayor Carruthers and Mr. Elliott retire from office, we wouid like ta pay public tribute ta them on behaif of aur readers and wish them and their wives good health and much happiness in the years which lie ahead. They certainly have dont their part nobly in making this a better community. As ta their successors, it wouid appear at tht moment that well- experienced Deputy Reeve Ivan Hobbs may take over tht Mayor's chair with- aut his election being contested. This, of course, is only, shahl we say, weil- informed rumor, but ta datt there has been no indication that anyone tise is contemplating throwing his hat in tht ring. While it is still quite early ta make any prognostications concerning Mr. Elliott's successor, we wouid oertainly hope that tht rumor that Ex- Mayor Lawrence C. Mason may ailow his name ta stand for tht PUC vacancy is correct. If it were true and he were elected, that would make two compar- atively young ex-mayors, Mr. Mason and F. Morley Vanstone as commission- ers, with tht incoming mayor as tht third member of tht commission. At tht moment, there are many other developments in council circles which should provide some surprises on nomination night if they came ta pass. We hesitate.ta even mention any of them at this juncture, but hope ta have more details before tht meeting. i. VeDV'%EU FMessrs.
