OFFICIAI opening was held in Milton on the weekend of the new senior citizens units there By Bob Burt t The adult world is under selling youth today by not providing standards and adhering to them We re not being fair to the young people and I think we are much too permissive today Vivian head of Halton County Family Counselling Service said in an interview with this paper Mr Vivian is of the opinion parents too often take the easy way out by giving in to a request by their sons or daughters In sessions Mr Vivian and his staffers hold with youngsters at various high schools the young people have said they do want ground rules set down by their parents Speaking about the generation gap Mr Vivian whose title is the Deputy Director of Social and Family Services said there must be a gap there and in one sense It Is a good thing Young people don t expect adults to act like kids But when the gap interferes with communications it is ob viously a bad thing he explained Family counselling Is still a relatively new concept in Halton County Five and a half years ago the need for such a service became evident to Judge Kenneth It was Judge Langdon who sold the Idea and got the wheels turning Vivian who had served probation officer until that time applied for job Since it started the case load has Increased from Just over 200 to In 1970 With the heavier work load the staff has Increased and there is now a full time family counsellor in the north east and west portions of the county Communication Important Marital problems are by far the greatest number that come before the counsellors The deputy director or the counsellors will either meet with wife or husband separately then together or together at the first greatest problem Is lack of communication Commun lcatlon

for the abandoned cemetery at the corner of the Eighth Line and Avenue near Hornby In a letter to council Mr Barnes concluded that Earl McDowell must still be the owner of the cemetery land and therefore is responsible for it since he has not yet been able to find that the land was at any time dedicated as a cemetery However Mr Babies added that his opinion Is subject to change If It can be proved the cemetery was dedicated to some church or organization at some time Received letter Council received a letter from the Department earlier this month informing them the cemetery was In a

more and more the people themselves are coming to us for help be said Help on budgets Sometimes It is lust a matter of helping with a budget It Is surprising how many people have never considered drawing a budget A budget doesn t have to be a rope around your neck but should serve as a guideline and both people should be aware of where the money is going advised Mr Vivian It is just as as opt to be a middle class wage earner who Just overspent on credit buying and can t cope as well as a person who simply earns a low salary that falls Into trouble Many marriages go sour because the couple married too young half the responsibility Is too much and if there are children the responsibility Is even greater Urge reconciliation In the first Instance the counsellors will urge recon but if that proves out of the question he or she will try to find the most amicable and satis factory way to provide tho separation decide custody for the children and offer a solution to the problem of a money Many of the people coming to the counselling office expect some sort of magic wand to be waved and their problems will disappear It takes a lot of work to undo the situation that has built up over a period of years Mr Vivian said Unlike several agencies of fcrinf a similar service the county department levies no charge for clients other than that paid in taxes Church The Deputy Director faulted the adults of today for under playing the importance of the church and spiritual aspect of life More often than not our clients can give you a church affiliation but have no real ties with church and are not regular attenders he said Part of the onus is on the church If there is no positive message people won t go and the young people are quick to something not true I think there is more room for discussion In groups like a young married couples group in the church he explained Salary range to 36000 is set for administrators ROBERT R HAMILTON OPTOMETRIST 1 Mountain Road Georgetown 877 3971
