Australian Exchange Stud Gives Impressions of Cana Australian Exchange student Kelvin Robertson spoke to the his host Rotary Club about early impressions of Canada and Canadians at last Thursday's meeting. His interesting comments were supplemented by a slide presentation. by Liz Armstrong "A Canadian's world is the whole world, while an Aus- tralian's is simply Australia." That sums up the impres- sions that Rotary Exchange student Kelvin Robertson has received during the first seven months of his year long visit to the Bowmianville area from Woodside Jerilderie, New South Wales, Australia. Kelvin was on hand as guest speaker at the Bowmanville Rotary Club last Thursday, and his comments and slide presentation were thoroughly enjoyed by all the members. On arrival in January, Kelvin was greeted by barren trees and "that w stuff", and after in ges of homesicknesE weather and his r Canada have wa considerably.

Now that the sumn tion is drawing to Kelvin is no doubt forward to the beginning of the new term at Bowmanville High School next week. He finds the modern facilities at the school superb. To cite a comparison, he pointed out that in his local school, the wood workshop would have one lather for 30 students; at B.H.S. there is one machine for each perso9 in the class. Prior to his tip to Canada, Kelvin never dreamed of seeing Niagara Falls, but on one of his many side trips, be managed to visit the world renowned attraction. He also visited 'La Belle Province' and found Montreal to be very similar to Sydney. His slides also tell of visits to the Agricultural College at Guelph, weekends at the summer cottages of his hosts, and camping trips to Algon- quin Park. Recently he travelled 40 miles down the 401 to explore the Canadian National Exhibi- tion. A suitable finish to a busy summer. Dr. Ted Mann thanked Kelvin for his presentation and wished him well for the remaining five months of his excbange visit.

Correspondence from the Ontario School Trustee's Council advised that as the increase in the tax has been a major concern to all school boards due to its effect on their budgets, the Council has ascertained, that the tax will be rebated on all school expenses. The rebate includes trustees using their car for school business, and school buses. Regulations and Refund Claim Forms for the 10 cent Excise Tax, in effect since June 24, are reported to be available through Customs Offices, Post Offices and Excise Tax Offices. Two options are available to the school board in applying for refunds. They can indicate the number of gallons pur- chased supported by invoices, indicate number of gallons used for personal use and submit the net number of gallons at 10 cents each. The second option available is to indicate the number of miles paid for travelling expenses and multiply by 5/s of one cent per mile or $.00625. The rate for mileage travel- led on school business by Board members and staff is 16 cents per mile. As the rate has not ,been ch4nged it was recommended 'at the board meeting that application for refund be made on all mileage paid since June 24 on the basis of 53 of one centper mile and that the refund be paid to the individuals concerned. Obtaining refunds for the four board operated school buses will be conducted bythe first method. If you have the trees but the neighbor gets the leaves - help him to clean them up.
