made on the night school classes which concluded with a demonstration of the products and skills created attended by a large segment of the districts population friday inknox church auditorium each year we are amazed at the talents shewn by an average group of people develop- eclfna short nights of instruction itindi cates that mans creative genius is not restricted to the few who make a career of painting carp- ertry dress designing to mention only a few phases of the night school course some 300 people benefit each year from the varied instruction available in this govern- merit sponsored school most courses lead to paying hobbies for those students who take them seriously others provide sparetime recre ation and the opportunity to meet others interes ted in the same skills everyone benefits to a large or small extent and the country is enriched by a return to craft work which is all too often forgotten in this age of automation georgetown is extra fortunate in having ex perienced instructors on our doorstep for most of the courses such subjects as oil painting weld ing rug making millinery leathercraft furniture refinishing upholstering carpentry sewing and aluminum etching were all taught by people resi dent in the district the school speaks well for georgetowns cultural fife and it is hoped that it will continue to thrive in future years questions without answers the town council didnt move much tloier tc passing a zoning bylaw on monday after a joint meefng viih the town planning ooard at which mr teaiion of the departments of planning was patent to give advice zoning is a sticky problem and mr pear sons remarks were of necessity limited to gen eralities in such a question it is easy to gen ize and talk in the abstract but much trickier to solve the real problem of dealing with a certain situation in which individual properties come up for scrutiny mr pearson kept reminding council that in zoning someone may get hurt it is impossible to zpne any district for any certain purpose with- out the possibility of hurting present resale of certain property he said a council must balance the future good of the whole community against the present good of individuals such allegbries as planners must be like doctors who say you cant contaminate water then drink it were used to illustrate we dont think council is much better in formed after his visit than they were when they stalled on the shoals last fall when zoning was first discussed a year ago there were problems which eventually had to be faced perhaps the one suggestion which he offered which can be of a little help is to isolate debatable ereas approve the parts of the zoning bylaw which meet- major ity approval then have another session with a planning consultant too many zoning questions have no ans wers at least no answers which are palatable to all members of the community- and there lies a real test for a solomon hospital information garbled a press report of the february 1 1 th council meeting caused some embarrassment at a county hospital committee meeting later and led reeve stan allen to ask that it be corrected the herald reporter misconstrued a state ment by the reeve about possibility of hospital financing by a county debenture issue and re ported that the county would issue debentures and re loan the money to the towns concerned what the reeve said was that the debenture money would be granted to the town with no its not all pie we are grateful to the reeve for setting us right on this and in fact would appreciate any reader correcting any glaring error which might appear in the herald news columns only one who has spent a great part of their time reporting and writing news stories can realize how easy it is to get facts twisted or to ptjv the wrong interpretation on comments par- ticularly in the weekly three hour council session the fact that we- havent been hung drawn and quartered in sixteen years of such reporting is perhaps ah indirect tribute to our percentage ac curacy we have no illusions of course if com- mejats we have heard from residents of other towns are the criterion the weekly editorial staff thought of repayment the statistics he reviewed which showed that georgetown milton and burlington would receive more back than they paid and that oakville would be a loser were based on the assessments of each municipality georgetown for instance would pay 686 per cent of the debenture this being the share of county costs for which it is responsible the bed basis on which the money would be dis tributed would however actually return 147 per cent to georgetown by way of hospital grant is subject to continual harpooning that fellow never gets anything right is a a statement we haye heard more than ante and from residents of half a dozen towns we wonder how often georgetowners have said it of us believe us when we say that every item in the herald is checked as carefully as time per mits many times even the smallest news bit is the product of as many as half a dozen phone cafls and it would be our greatest pleasure to think that if someone from another town said of his local paper that fellow is always getting things twisted the georgetown reply might bef our paper ifsisslly has it right we can hope anyway i these identic al twins nominated by the adams hunt club tor onto as candidates for
