_______ _______________ ORONO WEKEKLY TIMES, THRSDAY, FEBRUARY 6th,. ORNOWEEKLY TIMS o oking In At The Libraryj Thie 0ronO lied Cross, who endeavoured to hold their aýnnual meeting recently imet with a cdisapPOifltlg turnout w,,hich -lbas r esulted in the discontinuiflg Of the Society in Orono.1,1 .Althollgh one might edaimn that Oreno lias too many org,,,aniz&tienS and soieties 1tey do ail provide a specific pur- pose and service in the ]Ylcaity. The Orono Red Cross v0as no exception and With its inactiveiiess a nunvber of wirtb- while prejects will cease to eist with the- resuit that the, commuiiy as a whole will be the loser., The Soith-as in the pasit f ew years been strigigliflg along- with littie support from residents in geneflal. A f ew hav ecarried on the operatien of the Society and 1-s worth- while projeccts of Vitamin Tablets for public schocl childreri, assistaflce in case, of need andc of course the Orono Red Cross Water Safety and Sw7iimming Classes. Althougb the benefits f rom these projects have been advant'ageous to the majurity in the area,,the vj>rity have not reciprocated in, givîng their support to the Soiety. The Water Safety program is certainly one which Was well received in Orono and district. L-ast year alone 264 children were enrelled and -receiveýd daily instruction in the program at the Or'eno pool. Surely the ied Coss Soiety warrants our support when such worthy community pro- jects are undertaJken by the Society f* the benefit of- everyeiie.. We doulit that the swiniming program will be dis- continued for it lias been a most popular1 program. Under present circui-stances it will n 'ot be sponsored by the Ried Cross but sm othier group Will neoloulit be organized, to cairry on thi:s se,ýcr 0f the work. This huwever dcoes not overcame Uhe 1loss of the Orone Ried Cross toti com nityIý and we do be'eve that it is regretilable that support andi interest 1was nOt fertbhcoming for thie Society from the puiblic in general. Support must be -given te those Societies that are bettering our community. HELPS IBOOST FRICES One factor in the up-3ward thrust of the retain price structure is the inventoî y shrinkage which prevails in every retaU elestsibhlshment. Shrinkage is caused by carelessfless ordishonety of employees,, by shopEfAtiflg of ostensible cust- emers, and by the failure cdf some magistrates to view witli sùffieient severity crimes that should lie punished in semee way. A case in point involved a young woman wlio lifted seven, ne less, sweaters in a Ca'ý,nadian store. She already had _been a suspelct and was carefully watched as she put the goods in a shopping bag. The young woman was freed on the second appeara nce in couirt. It certainly loeked as if justice liad bec pre-ar- ranged, fer the lawyer representing the young woman on her first appearance did not bether te, come te court the se c- o--nd time, The crown attorney said that iliere wlas insufficient evidence te convic4t, although the stolen goeds were in the Possession of the police and three enripleyees 0f the re- ta!ier were on hand te ive their evidence. But the case was vrashed up te tlie satisfoetion of the crown attorney, and the mi,ýager cof the store was lianded baLck the seven sweaters. I'f the Young woman cou id not lbe cenvicted of che or- iglinal charge 0f baving, tejen goods in lier possession, vj'by give the sýweters te the merchant if tbey were net stolen? If they wvere not stelen sweaters lie had neo right te 'ohaýve them baclc. -"The Printed Word"' VOUR '63 WAYN" Maintenance Service Complete, Maintenance on WVindows, Floors and Wnl Service Rug and Upholstery Shampooing Commnercial, Industrial Residential ]PHONE 255 Orono, Ont. e e G -5 *DRIVER'-S LICENCE expires February 28 The mailing of the new application forms fo r Ontario drivers' licences has now been completed.
