The inn offers a variety of pasâ€" times, such as hunting and fishâ€" ing. It has been established since 1951.

Some people believe all snakes are venomous; others consider them useless creatures:; while still others disâ€" like them for no other reason than "simply they are snakes." As Metro welfare commissioner Mr. Anderson is responsible for a department budget of over $25â€" million a year. He often walks an invisible tight rope between those persons who believe Metro does not give sufficient aid to the needy and those who believe that Metro gives out too much. The range of assistance, de pending on the size of the in dividual family and other circum The job of the Metro welfare commissioner is to see that the provisions of the General Welfare Assistance Act and The Homeâ€" makers‘ and Nursing Services Act are carried out. The amount of financial assistâ€" ance provided to a family is based on a departmental review of their circumstances. Fortunately, in recent years, this attitude is changing. People are beginning to realize that these reptiles play an important part in nature by consuming great numbers of insects and roâ€" dent pests. In Ontario there is only one snake which poses any danger to man â€" the little Massasuaga Rattlesnake. It is found chiefly along the shores of Georgian Bay to about 20 miles inland, on some of the islands in the bay and on the Bruce Peninsula. This rattler is a "mildâ€"manâ€" nered", rather sluggish â€" little snake, which normally prefers retreat to attack and tries to avoid encounters with humans, if possible. The greatest danger is in accidentally stepping on a Massasauga, as they blend so of public welfare. For the proâ€" vince he was director of general welfare assistance. Alderman Ben Nobleman statâ€" ed that ratepayers in the borough were very concerned and shocked because so many police officers were affected by the disease. He believes there has been too much pussyâ€"footing over the hippies. Ordinary people would be quarâ€" anteened, he said. Strong action should be taken said Mr. Nobleâ€" man, the hippies are being treatâ€" ed too lightly. As Metro government‘s comâ€" missioner of welfare, responsible for the care of 12,000 to 15,000 people without adequate funds he doesn‘t want to see another deâ€" pression York council jumped on the beatnik bandwagon Monday by calling on the Ontario health minister to close up Yorkville‘s restaurants and boutiques. to be without money and low on food. Bid to close Yorkville captures news headlines When aldermen passed a moâ€" tion calling on the province to declare the hippie haven off limâ€" its to the general public due to a hepatitis epidemic, Council (1) made the headlines of Toronto‘s three dailies, (2) was lead item for most of Tuesday‘s radio newsâ€" casts, (3) got on television. Council hates hippies .

Other activities of the departâ€" ment include the provision of municipally operated day nurâ€" sery centres and the subsidization of approved private day nursery schools to help out working moâ€" thers. The department also reâ€" commends the provision of Metro grants to private agencies doing social work within the communâ€" ity. Mr. Anderson and his staff is increasingly becoming involved in the social problems of a communâ€" ity or district within the Metro region and in particular with the growing demand for community recreation services. Metro welfare department is the only Metro de partment concerned with thouse people on the fringe of poverty. well with their surroundings The Massasauga is a small, stoutâ€"bodied snake, which seldom attains a length of more than two and a half feet, although threeâ€"footers have been found. The head is broad and distinct from the neck, the snout is blunt, and like all rattlers, the Masâ€" sasauga also has the facial pits and "catâ€"like" eye pupils. The aid would be provided unâ€" til such time as the person reachâ€" es a level of income which would provide reasonable standard of living. To provide accurate informaâ€" tion on the Massasauga Raftleâ€" snake the Federation of Ontario Naturalists published a booklet on this fascinating reptile. It was authoritatively written by Miss Barbara Froom of the Ontâ€" ario Department of Lands and Forests. There are twelve sections in the booklet dealing with topics such as range in Ontario, preâ€" cautions when in â€" rattlesnake country, first aid and someâ€" times mistaken for rattlers. ‘"The venom of the Massasauga is highly toxic," writes Miss Froom, "but the quantity is small and the snake‘s fangs are short. With prompt treatment no one need die from the bite of a Masâ€" sasauga rattler." One man, York Alderman, Walâ€" ter Sauders spoke out for the rights of the individual. He statâ€" ed that council has no right to tell people of the Borough of York that they can not go down to Yorkville, If they want to go," he said, "they know the conseâ€" quences." stances, could be anywhere from $50 to $350 a month. Mr. Anderson is a commissionâ€" er that believes that those on welfare should be encouraged to seek employment and if necesâ€" sary take part time jobs to supâ€" plement the income received from the municipality. He does not believe that public assistance should remove the incentive to seek employment. The department is working on a formula which may soon allow a person to receive welfare aid while also holding a job. Another function of the Metro welfare department is to see that municipal grants are paid to the two Metro area children‘s aid soâ€" cieties to assist in the maintenâ€" ance of neglected children. saying disease knows no boundâ€" aries and that all medical officers of health should be concerned. However, he pointed out the difâ€" ficulties which would be encounâ€" tered in enforcing this action. There would be legal ramificaâ€" tions he said, if businesses were forced to close. Alderman â€" Douglas Saunders mentioned an epidemic of the district may force the boroughs into a unified health authority for the whole Metropolitan area. Council voted to support Aldâ€" erman Nobleman‘s motion. in this Eden Westen §t Corbett Avenue women need more room to park their cars than their husbands, according to York‘s Deputy Commissioner of Works Donald Oldreive.

Metro recently felt the effects of a strike by garbage collectors and later the postal strike came along. Metro Council supported the North York mayor‘s call for a three level conference. Mr. Hurlburt thought Metro should obtain some research material on the problem of laborâ€"management relations in the government field before jumping forward to demand a conference. ‘"You are asking for a conference without establishing the 'fguide lines," he told council. | York Controller Philip White used the term mishâ€" ‘ mush last week in describing Metro‘s deal to help the : city pay the cost of waterfront lifesaving services. North York Controller Frank Watson said last week he could see Metro spending upwards of $1â€"million on its bid for the 1976 Olympic Games. The controller expressed concern to Metro Council that the exact budgetary source of the funds being poured into Metro‘s Olympic bid have not been disâ€" closed. He wonders where the money is coming from and if any Metro projects are being curtailed in order to give the Olympic bid priority. "A nicely worded motion" was the way North York Controller Gordon Hurlburt described North York Mayor Jim Service‘s plea for a three level conference of governments in Canada, provincial, federal and Metro, to deal with the problem of strikes that affect vital government services. Mr. Waite, born in Toronto, graduated from the Uniâ€" versity of Toronto as a mining engineer in 1941. He served as an officer for five years with the Royal Canâ€" adian Engineers during the Second World War. The TTC operates several trolley coach routes includâ€" ing the Weston Rd. line and has a fleet of 153 trolley coaches which it has been found cost less to operate than the standard diesel buses and do not contribute to air pollution. The result has been a three foot increase in length of the trolley coach, seating capacity has been reduced from 44 to 40 seats to give more leg room and the heatâ€" ing system for use in the winter has_ been q'e.atly imâ€" Metro Council provides an initial $25,000 for its Olympic bid and recently added another $25,000. It is up against Montreal and Hamilton in trying to be selectedâ€"as the Canadian site for the Olympics. If Metro wins as the Canadian site it would still have to go to Greece in 1969 to convince the International Olympic Committee. The arrangement is that Metro will pay $122,000 this year toward the cost of life saving operations. This, however, depends on Metro obtaining legislation from the province to permit the contribution. Arother factor in the deal is that the city must match the $122,000 payment by Metro toward lifesaving costs. Of course, the city pays about 40 per cent of Metro government operations including the proposed payment for lifesaving service. R. G. Waite, 52, has been named by the Toronto Transit Commission as assistant general manager of operations. He takes over the job formerly held by Jim Kearns who moves up to TTC general manager of operations. He joined the TTC in 1947 as supervisor of shop and yards. After holding four other appointments within the TTC he was named staff engineer in 1960. He is married with two children. The initial experiment in the renovation of troiley coaches owned by the TTC has been completed by a Winnipeg comany.
