Chairman J. R. Rogers, who has had negotiations in `hand for I the council, is right when he says he will not hand over a sum of money to any body of men without knowing how and where it is going to be distributed. In this he is taking a sound stand. The council should not only have knowledge of fire brigade expenditures but it should also have an agreement with the firemen, binding both parties. At present there is no such agreement. \K/Han I1 f-wnnrvunn :,-\..-.n A ---`~--1~ WINNIPEO VANCOUVER 13) W :%&%%&&$$&*i*&$;;E- : amnmmucmmmmr * I , * wwuwnuuuuununuunu THE TOWN AND ITS FIRE BRIGADE None will dispute the fact that Barrie, by rea- son of having an efficient volunteer fire bri- gade, has been getting c-heap fire protection. This has been known for years. It only requires a comparison of costs with towns of similar size and even smaller, particularly where there ` is a paid fire brigade, to prove this fact. 1 1.. 132.... Thu DAV:-:n `/.\ D:~n.J- l.__ --3-` ntnnu -.. --._, V The Examiner has every sympathy with the firemen and frankly admits they have been un- derpaid for their services. The council has al- ready conceded this point by granting $500 over last year s appropriation. We believe, how- ever, that the proposed action of the firemen is too drastic altogether and that cooler heads should and will eventually smooth things out amicably. ~ H :.- A; u... ...-.---.

On Do- minion Day Canadians can walk forth with` chests out and heads erect, with a feeling of security that they are living in the greatest country on earth and better still, a country of unbounded possibilities, the extent of which they themselves must leave to their imagina- tions, so bright is the future. If it comes to pass, as. predicied, that the great majority of applications for ol.l age pen- sions will come from the towns, then the appli- cants of Simcoe County have the assurance that their requests will be judged and passed on by an unprejudiced and sympathetic board-, for four or five members are farmers or ex-farmers who know what it is to work hard and con- scientiously during a lifetime and receive a re- ward that is not over generous. For Sale by Times do change. Simcoe County will soon have over $20,000 invested in power road ma- chinery. Three years ago had anyone suggested spending that amount of money for such a pur- posetvhe councillors almostto a man would have ` held up both hands in holy horror, but today the former advocates of the horse-drawn grad- er and drag are themselves the strongest advo- cates of modern machinery. It is performance that counts. An exchange tells of a scientist who was to iecture on The Infinitude of Space, but kept his audience waiting half an hour because he couldn t find a place to park his car- It would not be a bad idea, as suggested, to `have some of these corpuulent aldermen fill the gaps in the fire brigade. Fighting fires should be a good conditioner. ` This estimate is on the basis that 200 people over seventy years of age with. residential qual- ifications and with an income or less than $1.00 a day will qualify. Whatever their income may be it will be deducted from the pension. More- over inmates' of the House of Refuge are elig- ible for the pension, but should they desire to` remain they would, of Course, have to pay for their keep. If the new Act is the means of re- storing some aged people to comfortable homes and comparative independence, making for happiness in their declining years, real good will result apart altogether from other features of ` the Act. What is paid out in pensions, of course, will not have to be paid out by the county in House of Refuge maintenance, so that it is as broad as it is long. ` nJ\/ I. Ivuulall LACI- .Nothing' was put in the County estimates this year for Old Age Pensi_ons. The Act does not come into force until November, and it will like- ly be the first of 1930 before it starts to function and payments will have to be made. The esti- mated expenditure, roughly, for Simcoe Coun- ty, is $50,000, of which the taxpayers will put up 20 per cent. in direct taxation, 30 per cent. in indirect taxation through the province and 50 per cent. will be provided-by the Dominion government.
