Auxiliary asatd wit1à the amrvun& Mayor Reports <Contlnued from Page One) Mill Rate Rises Mr. Mason endeavoured ta ex- plain the miii rate Jump during the period 1945 ta 1946. The county rate was fairly stable in 1945 at 7.8 milîs. In 1948 it was 8.8 and in 1949'it was 8.2, "There was na great jump hene," he said. The public school rate, however, bas jumped considerably. In 1944 the Mill rate was 10.2, but in 1945, wben changes were made in the manner of Government grants, the rate was reduced ta 6.5. In 1946 it was 8.7 and fnom that year ta the present tîme it bas continually incneased untîl today it la 14.1, or more than double the rate in 1945. This, the Mayor said, was due to expansion and the incneasing number of pupils attending public schoois. Besides that, there was increased assessment. Considering the High School rate, Mr. Mason said the same TENDERS WANTED The Newcastle Board of Edu- ation requres a fuil-time care- taker. Must be able to do al minor repairs and decorating.

In 1945, the rate ,was 1/8 mili. Frorn this figure it increased to 3.8 in 1947 and to 6.4 ini 1950. He said that the pre- sent school board has been dis- banded and that the High School was now a *part of the High School Area. Later on, a Public School Board of six will be elected to administer to the public schooia *oniy. Under the new High Schopl area system, it is to be hoped that the miii rate wili be reduced. -The debenture ra-te in municipal taxes depends upon the number of debentures issued by the towra. The highest in Bowmanville's history was 6.3 milis. Three mills was the iowest recorded until1 today. In 1950, however, the rate [is 1.5 mills. This is due to the fact that the Public Utilities took over a large amount of debentures for sewers and'so on. Some de- bentures have not shown their effect as yet, Mayor Mason said, but they will in future years. The town rate bas not varîed a great deal over the five year period. In 1945 it was 19 milîs; 1949, 21 milîs, and in 1950 it was 26.8 mills. Referring back to the increased schooi rate, Mayor Mason said, "It's an old story." In spite of promises by the Provincial Gov- ernment, demands on taxpayera are continually increasing. "We in Council haven't much to say when a requisition cornes from1 the School Board. We sit doýCt. and talk with them urging econ- must be paid even in -the not sa gaod times," he added. In conclusion, Mayor Masan brigbtened his short address. "Despite these gloomy prognos- tications," he asserted, "1- don't want anyone ta 'assume that we have lost faith in Bowmnanville. We will struggle through to the end and have a better,, and liner town to live in," be added. Commencement omy," but that evidently, is the extent of Council's activity ln re- lation to this particular body. The Mayor broached the opin- ion that the time bas arrived in mu.nicipal affairs when the Pro- vincial Government should as- sume part of the costs instead of burdening local citizens. "Some have suggested," he stated, "that responsibilities be divided wzith the Government taking over high- ways and education among other things." The Debenture Debi The present debenture debt of Bowmanville is $690,000 and the $60.000 worth of debentures is- sued for the school addition will be added to that. It is expected that further debentures wili have to be issued if the water suppiy is to be maintained. This point xvas relative to utiiizing Lake Ontario as a source of suppiy. The Mayor did not doubt that the future debenture debt of Bow- manville would reach the million dollar mark. "I think this town la goîng to be faced with further debentures." Mr. Mason made reference to the new dual bigh- way and Council responsibilities founcl in that part of town iying below the C.N.R. tracks, in this respect. He emphasized caution, how- ever, in taking on new obliga- tions. I'There is aiways a tend- ency in good times to expand, and overspend," he said.

The ladies' chorus composed of the First Lord's Sister, his cousins, and his aunts, is very good, knows its songs well. The maie chorus, ail the sailors and marines, raise their voices in several iusty num- bers. As the curtain goes Up, they are cleaning the deck and singing, "We Sail the Ocean Blue." The pianista, Bertha Colville and Catherine Teeple, play in faultless style and do a grand job. Under Mr. R. G. Harle's splendid dIrectorsbip the show goes over in a big way.
