Commitment ‘"The most important factor is that we‘re in the ‘values‘ busiâ€" ness. We‘re not out to make a profit, just break even."‘ _ Hussy said the staff at the Y is there to ‘"‘make people grow, to help them. _ _ S ‘*Society is becoming in tune with values." People are realizâ€" ing that ‘‘it‘s nice to be in a space wlhere people care about peoâ€" ple." (Continued from page 5) Staff at the Y are not in it for the money, Hussy said. "They‘re not here to become rich, they‘re dedicated to the vocation." Hussy explained vocation as something you ‘"tremendously believe in. You get more out of it than just a salary."‘ More people are turning to this type of job because it generates good feelings through helping people, Hussy said. i § M noiy s â€"Hair Fashions & i e *J Where is the only true BAGEL in Kâ€"W9 THE BAGEL BINN of course‘ Binn â€" STREAKS Board may take steps to protect bus drivers from student attacks 124 Columbia St. W., Waterloo 885â€"5405 RS.: Tues. 8â€"12, Wed. & Thurs. 8â€"6, Fri. 7:30â€"6, Sat. 7â€"12 reg. $35 NOW *30 Make your.

These difficulties bring home the fact the board is trying to provide education services to students who otherwise might not receive an education, said Superintendent of Educational Services Ray Ward. The board has a responsibility to get these pupils safely to school, he emphasized. Supervision is necessary on bus runs where the attacks are becoming a chronic problem. Approximately 1,000 special education children are transported by the board and 20 to 30 of those children have a potential for causing severe problems, said Supervisor of Transportation for Special Education Students Ed Toukko. Waterloo trustee John Hendry said the board has a responsibility to get to the root of the problem. The issue was referred to the coâ€"ordinating committee at Hendry‘s request. ho o3 ."~ \Weae Big size, big \=& NC3 performance )/ Electric water heaters give you up to 40% more storage than the largest gas heater.
