E-ditokr Eric Patterson, Adi ertising TROUBLE IN THE HIOME Professor M.V.C. Jeffreys, an English educationist uttered this lamnent a few years ago: -Housing, however imperfect, has neyer been better; but for miany people home lias neyer meant lss." It does seemn that, many homes today are prîmarily dormnitories and private restaurants and places to stay while thec car is being repaired. Part of the trouble is the pace at which s0 many of us try to live. Frantic busyniess is a widespread afflicaion these days: we are frantic in our work, in our play, even in our relaxation. And ail this frenzy does menace home and family: many parents find it difficuit to take suffîcient imie for sustaining good relations with their children. Some parents today seem to be more the proprietors of their children than parents. Lt is not realiy a home if there ;s not much time for easy and spontaneous relations, if there are flot expressions of real interest in the concerns and problems and idiosyncrasies of alI, if there are deficiencies in expressions of the love which is a concern, sometimes a sacrificiai concern, for the good of others. No occasional and slickly synthesized togetherness, even when helped by modern conveniences and ornamented by the Iatest gimmicks, can compensate for the personal qualities which make a home really a home. As Dr. Kari Menninger, one of the most influential psychiatrists of our time, hias warned, "Swamping a child with advantages is often a substitute for giving him tie, interest, companionship, and love." There is much evidence that the influence of the home in the development of personality and character is far more significant than the combined influence of the sehool and the church and ahl the community agencies with which children have contact. And children do not develop values mainly from their being told. about them: it is the, values which parents embody and express in the ordinary course of their lives that influence their children. STUDY INCONCLUSIVE Phil Levine, a planning consultant with the IBI group has been reported to have said during a recent meeting of the Courtice Task Force that it was impossible to discover whether or not the Murray V. Jones report on Courtice were correct. This waý due to the lack of background information. The Town of Newcastle had the Courtice plan prepared by Murray V. Jones and following this the Region of Durham carried out a similar stuady of the same area. Yet at this-point and after two ýtudies the cost of developmnent of the soft services is not known. The Murray Jones report states that there would be no major financiai impact on regional, educational and local taxes within thàe Town of Newcastle if the developmnent should go ahead. But Levine said hie could not agree or disagree with these conclusions. Mayor Rickard has been xeported to predict that there would be no financial impact on existing residents or ill-effects. This would hardly prove to be enough at this point especially when a planning consultant could not determnine thec effect of the pnoposed development. People certainly do have the need for services. Education facilities are alwavs a requirement of new developmen,,ts and it hias been stated that in 'the Courtice area the Ministry 0f Education il ave to approve grants for a new school as outined by the IMinistry of Housing. The local cost of this project miust tenfaîl back on ail taxpayens in the school anea. The Waverley developmient in Bowmanville is a prime example and the Minister thnough pressure has giveni his approval for a newv 19 room- elementary schooL. It is simple mathemnatics that education costs must ise with sizeable, new developmnent. one could not expect to bring in a new community of 1000 homes without -adequate fine protection, adequate librany service and adequate recreational services. These ail have a substantial capital cost attached] to them along with the cost of operation. And what about a community hall and an arena for the Courtice area.
