The city had spent $473,928 on this last year. Those on assistance could be divided into two sections -- the employables and the unemploy- ables. There were many differ- ent reasons why. people became unemployable, such as _ preg- nancy in women, desertion or chronic illness. The employables were a rath- er different matter, During the) last year they had not been euch ployed families on unemployment in- surance alone.

It is expected that Ald. Bint will give an itemized account of his survey during the next gen- eral meeting this Sunday at 8.30 p.m, in the Oshawa Shopping Centre Mall Restaurant. TAX PROBLEMS Other items under discussion will include the reassessing of double lots for tax purposes. Said Mrs. Larocque, "people living on this property are taxed $250 each while those living on single lots pay only $300 in taxes. She indicated this was an expensive tax rate for one lot. Road dust which is vexing residents of the Glen Stewart area will also be on the agenda. The association secretary claims that tar which is poured on the roads does not alleviate the situation because it even- tually wears off. Directors will conduct a 15- minute question and answer period when progress and prob- lems will be openly discussed. A committee to aid directors will also be appointed.

REPORT ON LETTER Mrs. Larocque said she was informed a letter sent to City Clerk Roy Barrand has been passed over to the commission along with a letter which was written by Constable William Tane, to F. Ross, principal of Westmount Public School in con. nection with the Home and School's request for a guard at this designated area. Constable Tane's letter sug- gested that all students be in- structed to walk on the west side of Stevenson road south to King street and cross with the patrol at that point. However, the residents felt this involved a safety risk for their children be- cause there is no sidewalk along this route. Members are also awaiting a reply from P. A.

The growth of this work from its small beginning as a mission in a house to its present new building is a story of God's working through His peopte. The members of Calvary Bap. tist Church had long felt the need for expanding their work. As some of the members were already in this area, it was de- cided they would make a good nucleus for a new church. =|Sunday Afternoon made with a Sunday School in a rented house on Cedar street, Robert Watson, superintendent of Calvary Baptist Church Sun. day School, was in charge. There was an enrolment of 55 students. This continued until April 1961 when the Sunday School, with Harry Seeley ia charge, was changed to Sunday morning, A morning worship service was also begun under Rev. Ernest Winter, assistant pastor of Calvary Baptist Church. Through much prayer and work on the part of the mem. bers, the mission increased in size until the facilities of the house no longer provided ade- quate accommodation for the needs. At this time the lot on which the present building now stands was purchased. The congregation is grateful to the Oshawa Board of Educa- tion for providing, the use of Dr. C. F.

In October 1961, two years after the holding of the first service, a service of dedication of the lot was held and eight months later the dedication of the new sanctuary is being held.
