Nurs es, he added, can lead the way to enoble every kind of work, and they can by action and example achieve the life that is well lived. Nursing, he said, was the worst job but as a profession it had no equal. Dr. Fletcher reminded the graduates that if they were not happy in the work they would undertake in other hospitals, which should be re- garded as the finest in the world, there was no use staying. He wished for every graduate the greatest possible success in what- ever work they might undertake. GRADUATES TAKE PLEDGE The Florence Nightingale pledge, without which no graduation ex- ercises would be complete, was led by Miss Marian Sundberg, R.N,, superintendent of nurses, as fol- lows: "I solemnly pledge myself be- fore God and in the presence of this assembly to pass my life in purity and to practice my profession faithfully. I will abstain from what- ever is deleterious and mischie- vous, and will not take or know- ingly administer any harmful drug. I will do all in my power to ele- vate the standard of my profes- sion and will hold in confidence all personal matters committed to my keeping, and all family affairs coming to my knowledge in the practice of my calling. With loyalty will I endeavour to aid the phy- sician in his work, and devote my- self to the welfare of those com- mitted to my care" GIVES VALEDICTORY A very excellent valedictory ad- | dress which won high commenda- | tion, was delivered by Miss Loretta Ruxton, of Dorset, Ontario. She said among other things that setting sail on an unknown sea, after three years' of careful training, the graduates, it was hoped, would ac- cept the challenge of youth and go forward to serve in whatever fields of service beckoned for the good of all. greatest | PRESENT DIPLOMAS AND | PRIZES The diplomas were presented to | the graduates by Mrs. Douglas Hol- liday, social worker for the hos- pital, while the pins were presented by Miss Marguerite Cammack, Reg.

Write Box 804 Times-Gazette, Oshawa, (140c) The high cost of education and its alleged inequitable burden upon real estate, provided much scope for discussion at Friday morning's session of the Ontario County Coun- cll which has been in 3ession in Whitby for the past five days. Reeve Elmer Powell of East Whit by led off the subject by reading a resolution from his township call- ing upon the province to assume 100% of the cost of education be- cause of its present inequitable burden upon real estate. Reeve Mrs. Helen McKenzie of Beaverton sald she is opposed to surrendering all control of education to the prov- ince and believes it is well for local parents to retain an immediate in- terest in their children's education. Some members of council express- ed the view that persons with chil. dren and persons a small amount of real estate should bear a greater percentage of the cost of education, thus giving relief to those owners of large properties who do not have as many children in pro- portion, Dr. Neil McEwen: The powers High Cost of Education Worries County Council that School Boards now have 'are trivial. We might as well let the province take the whole thing over." suthority now. Ours recently rais- ed all staff salaries by $400 across- the-board, even when the teachers were not requesting it. I feel that the local councils should bs consult- ed before such wholesale handouts take place." Reeve Albert Thaxteér said that the place to air such"complaints is at the O.EA, conventions in To- ronto at Easter. He suggested that the Dominion government should give some aid to education. As a parting shot, Mr. Thaxter sald: "I was appointed to a com- mittee to interview out Dominion representatives on the subject of federal aid to education. I's une fortunate that we haven't got a rep- resentative in the Dominion House (Walter ©. Thomson) but if we have I wouldn't know where to find him most of the time." Reeve Thomas Harding of Reach Township often says in County Councll, and he has never been con- tradicted, that he has been "talking ing assessment since 1941," Mr, Harding also often likes to call him- self "the bad boy" of the County Council, another point on which he has not had any successful rivals, Thursday afternoon, a request from County Assessor Gordon Mc- Lean for authorization for a one- month extension of time for bring- ing in his equalization schedule, gave Mr. Harding an opportunity to launch into a general attack on county assessment methods and to extend his remarks to a derogatory statement in the nature of a per- sonal attack upon Mr. McLean. This, the council did not let pass without murmurs of protect. Mr. Harding's township, Reach, is the only township in the county, which has never adopted the assess- ment system used throughout the other minor municipalities. Yester- day, Reeve D, B. McIntyre of Whit- by said, half in jest: "Reach has four assessments -- their own, the Reach Reeve Attacks Assessor and Methods county assessment, the new pro- vincial system and none at all." Mr. Harding sought to obtain some underlying explanation for the extension of time being required. He was told that it was simply be- cause other work, some of it check- ing assessments in Mr. Harding's own township, had delayed the preparation of the schedule. Asked to speak and asked some questions, Mr. McLean gave a clear explanation of several points of his work. When under attack by the Reeve of Reach on several points and when it was alleged that he is singling out Reach Township, Mr. MoLean responded that he was not singling out any one municipality for checking but giving a fair deal to all; further that he had never been welcome, when he went to do work in Reach Township. This sug- gestion Mr. Harding decried. As the argument became more heated, Mr. McLean threw out the sugestion: "What is it that Mr. Harding is afraid of--a disclosure?" Afer a long debate, the extension by-law was passed. Coming Events ALL BAINT'S W.A.

V. von Pilis, whose letter of resignation was accepted at a F. V. VON PILIS meeting of the Board Wednesday evening. In explanation of his action, Mr. von Pills wrote as follows: Pickering, Ont., June 13, 1051. Mr. Roger Conant, President, Ajax General Hospital, Dear Mr. Conant: When I was elected to the Board of Directors of the Ajax General Hospital I took this to be a mandate to establish a public hospital and operate it with the greatest e efficiency at the smallest ] cost to the community. : At our first board meeting a com- mittee was appointed to investigate the possibilities of staffing the hos- pital. At the next meeing the com- mittee back that there were two alternatives: (a) a religious order of nursing 8 A (b) a lay staff. It also reported that the advan- tages of competence, efficiency, economy and stability lay with the sisters; that on the other hand a lay staff would require more per- sonnel, not operate as economically, have a larger turnover of employ- ees and In all probability incur annual deficits of unknown size, This was generally acoepted by the Board, yet it was felt by some mem- bers that for emotional reasons a lay staff should be hired. A motion to this effect was lost by a vote of 6 to 5. A motion to hire the sisters was withdrawn as this question was considered too important to be de- cided by so small a majority, In- stead, at its next meeting, the board unanimously resolved to submit this and two other questions to a special general meeting. This general meeting decided to operate the hospital with a'lay staff, raise the initial capital of $25,000 by a campaign, take a mortgage of $10,000 and take the chance of an annual operating deficit. 8Bince the sisters had withdrawn their offer to hire, it left only the alternative of recommending to Central Mortgage and Housing to RESIGNS (Continued on Page 5) Floodlight Exhibition Game Turk Broda AND HIS NH.L ALL-STAR SOFTBALL TEAM --Y WHITBY STOKERS Whitby Town Park Tuesday, June 19 8:30 P.M.
