"As the Purse is Emptied" The Heart is Filled" Victor Hugo. The Haileybury Rotary Club has just observed its twenty-fifth anniversary. "As the members look back on their progress, per- haps no other undertaking is a greater source of pride to them than the assistance they have given to children who have suf- fered an illness which has left them crippled. During the past year, the Club has financed thirteen trips to the Hospital for Sick Children in Yoronto, and one trip to the Ot- tawa Civic. They have looked after the expense incurred in three of these hospitel cases. One youngster has been fitted with glasses. This month, a clinic arranged for by the Ontario Society for Crippled Children through ~ the Rotary Club was held at the Mi- sericordia Hospital. Two out- standing members ot the staff ot ihe Sick Childrens examined iorty-six ehildren in the district their aim was to determine whether further assistance would help the youngsters to progress iurther along the road to health and happiness. Dr. W. KR Som- erville, member ot the Rotary Miss Muriel Rice, public health uurse and Mrs, W. Bradley were responsible for looking after the mooth running of the project. interviewed this week, Mrs> Bradley said that the work being jor the children is one of the finest undertakings in the province and that to attend such iclinic 1s an experience which would moye any individual to do liis utmost to lurther the caus« ,ou who have a child with heal- thy limbs bounding into your home each day are only asked to remember that you are singular- iy blessed.

Mr. Abbott enlightened Council last week as to why the Income lax Act should not be amended to provide that municipal taxa- tion on an individual's home be included at a tax exemption for income tax purposes "{ can readily sympathize" said the minister, "with the view that ptivate home ownership is a most desirable social objective but I am not sure that the income tax law should be used to give fur- ther aid in attaining it. Income taxpayers who own their homes are already given rather favor- able treatment under the income tax law compared with taxpayers who invest the same amount in The latter no say, stocks or bonds. pay income tax on the in- from their investments whereas the former pay no in- come tax on the income in kind on the rental value of the house). {n the United Kingdom, for ex- ample, this income in kind is tax- able It is true that in the U.S.A. the federal income tax law makes some allowances for payment of niunicipal taxes but this is in con- formity with other provisions of that In the United States, (subject to certain exceptions to prevent hardship) when a tax- payer sells his own residence and inakes a profit, the amount of the profit it taxable It follows that certain ex- penses incurred in acquiring and holding this investment, such as interest on the house mortgage und certain property taxes, should be deductible from income for tax purposes. In Canada, on the other hand, the amount of gain made on the sale of a taxpayer's own residence is not taxable and consequently the expenses in- curred in making this profit are not deductible from income." inust come law A MESSAGE By Christ on the Cross, Peace was made My debt Ly His death was all paid No other foundation is laid, For peace, the gift of God's love Though graves reclaim the body And dust to dust returns, lis not the end of living In hope the Christian yearns.

With this underlying thought, it is en- couraging to note that 135,000 miles in our area are being +nethodically organized by the North Bay Centre. the following are members of the Royal Canadian Air Force Ground' Observe Corps in this alea: W. P. Ackroyd, regional super- visor, New Liskeard. Chief Observers in the various localities are: T. Robinson, Osseo; F. Filling- ham, Thornloe; G. M. Clements, ilk Lake; A. Mongeau, Gowgan- da;L.

Swartzman, New Lis- keard; My, Thrasher, | Earlton; Mrs. M. Routcliffe, Hanbury. The peace-time role of the Corps cannot be emphasized too strongly. By keeping a careful record of the exact time of sight- ing an aircraft in the area, the Search and Rescue Branch of the RCAF will have authentic reports on which to base the search for aircraft. These record- ations by official obser- vers are far more valuable than the customary "tips" that are telephoned in after an aeroplane is reported overdue. As yet, the Filter station is not operational and special reports being sent to the RCAF Sta- tion in North Bay. However, in two months' time, the Filter Cen- tre expects to be operating 24 hours a day. The Air Force is deeply appre- ciative of the freely volunteered services of every Ground Obser- ver Corps member.
