Talking about the six per- cent average increase ex- pected for "small" hospi- tals, Mr. Brown expressed satisfaction that the minis- try of health is apparently recognizing the difficulties that such hospitals have in trimming their budgets, as - opposed to larger hospitals where money can be saved without a serious curtail- ment of health care service. However, he did say that the need to cut costs must be recognized, and that this will force all hospitals to operate at maximum effic- iency. Mr. Brown confirmed that the hospital has received word from the government that a $36,000 deficit incurr- ed last year will be covered in the 1978-79 budget for the hospital. 113 OH [G ONY] 118 Brock St., North, Whitby Domestic & Imported Yarns Needlework Supplies Macrame Supplies 668-7611 Monday to Friday 10000am.to6:00p.m Saturday: 10am. toSp.m T.F ma EXCHEQUER TRUST : 15% GUARANTEED FOR 5 YEARS Guaranteed Investment Certificates with interest paid annually.

Antonios Vasinadis, of 42 Martindale © Road, Scar- borough, was charged last week after Inspector John Kirkland of the Whitby Shelter seized two calves from a small shack on the 7th Concession, west of Brooklin. Both animals were suffering from frost- bite and both were in a YAR a Ay vA . "x LY) p . ' ; I ES weakened condition. There was no water for the ani- mals and the hay was of such poor quality that it had no nutritional value. One of the animals has since died and the other was fed enough to restore suffi- cient strength to allow it to "be shipped to a Humane Society farm near Belle- ville. Inspector Kirkland said last week that the shack where the animals were found was set back from the road and there was no lane Official opening Scugog Community Care will hold an official opening of its new offices this Satur- day, and everyone is wel- come to take part in the ceremonies.

In a second incident, a similar charge is expected to be laid by the Humane Society after a pony was found locked in the back of a 20-foot box from a truck. A second pony, described by Inspector Kirkland "as just a rack of bone," was found dead. Both animals were found in Manilla, north of Port Perry. It was at first feared that the live pony would not sur- vive the malnutrition and severe dehydration, but Inspector Kirkland said that the animal responded to treatment and was trans- ferred to the Society farm near Belleville. The charges will be laid when the owner of the animals is positively identi- fied by the Humane Society. their 1978 budget. the municipality. Budget time again It's that time of year again, a time when munici- palities all across the province are starting to work on While Scugog Township is no exception, treasurer Alex Thomson said in an interview last week that it will be some time in April before a new mill rate can be struck. This is due to the fact that both the school board and the Region of Durham will not submit their requirements to thesTownship until the end of March. Because of this, Mr. Thomson said it is impossible to determine at this time whether there will be any increases in the mill rates, or how much they might be. Last year's total budget for the Township was just under $3 million, with $1,629,000 going for education, $672,000 as the Township's share of Durham Region's budget, and the remainder for day-to-day operation of back in again with more convenient ways to buy - in bags or boxes...
