Govt. Helpa Out The government grant would be paid on a basis o! $30,000 per in- struction unit of which this school bas 16. This makes a total grant o! $480,000 plus carrying charges. According to Mr. McGregor, the Board's grant for capital expend- iture is 75 per cent at present. In ahl, the province would pay 75 per cent o! $480,000 plus the 45 per cent carrying charges or a total o! $522,000. The oqualized assossment over the Hlgh School District total $13,839,500 and this figure niust ho used in computing any assessinent levied against the municipalities. For the Port Hope project. the charges agaînst the municipalities would work out as follows: Total Cost o!

Grant __..$522,000 Balance - ----355,250 According to the Board's fig- ures, the payment by municipal- ities per year would ho $17,762.50 which would mean a Mill Rate o! 1.283 mills. Using the same system of cost computation on the proposed Bow- manville addition, the icost is as follows: Total Cost o! Project ---$430,000 Plus Carrying Charges _$193,500 Total ---- ------ - $623,500 Less Prov. Grant - $358.875 Balance % - --...-26625 Payment by the municipalities per year on this amount would ho $13,231.25, and amount which would increase the Mil Rate by 0.905 milis. The Board of Education esti- mates that the whole building pro- gramn, totalling over $1 ,500,000, can ho undertaken at a cost ta the municipalities o! just over two milîs per year. The Board feels this ta be a very low rate when the large expenditure la considored. Other High Schools Mentioning the other High School Centres, Mr. McGregor said the Millbrook area presents a real problem. lI the Board's opinion there should be a strong school at Millbrook ta serve the northern part o! the District. At present, howover, Public School populations are not large enough ta warrant any building project as ail pupils can be accommodated in Millbrook High School. The Board said they will do every- thing possible ta strengthen and improvo this achool, but at pro- sent thene are no real problema i this section. The Board reported accommo- dation at Orana High School ado- quate, in fact, there la room for more pupils. Grdde IX and XII will be continued li. this school and the Board hapes ta add a Commercial course in the near future. At Newcastle there la sufficient roorn for ahl pupils froin the area served by the sçhool, and the Board intends operating this school in the same manner it is being operated at the presont tino. If and when sufficient ac- commodation is provided at Bow- manville High School, Newcastle pupils may ho transported ta Bowmanville. This would ho more economical, the Board ho- lieves, and pupils would have a wider range o! subjects froin which ta choose. .PONTYPOOL East Durham County L.O.L. hold their semi-annual meeting dnt Tuesday eveing.

BowmanvilUe Jeweller Goes to Bat With a Flying Bat lI Reèord Time A bat is reputedly a mouse- like quadruped which flics by means of wing-like membranes. it has been credited with evoklng high-pitched screams from wom- on, mare thani once it has been as- $ociated with church belfries. But not in Bowmanville. t One local bat abhors the bel- fries o! Bowmanville. Ho (or she as the case may be) prefers the gleam and glitter of watches and diamonda ta cobwebs, and is willing ta trade the clanging of a church bell for the tick a! many dlocks and the. myriad other noises that emerge from any re- spectable jewellery shop. The monster made its debut. at 4 p.m. Monday. Betty Brookinf was i the Jewellery and Git Shop aloaîe when the two-inch demon attacked the air 20 feot away. Ownor Art Hoaper re- turned from *'Coffee" saw the. peril o! Miss Brooking and in- mediately turned jungle huntor. But the furrod manstor took ta the trees (an eight day dlock) thon scuttled into a cave (a hale in an elec.trical connecting box) and escaped. But the wily hun- ter fetched a piece o! adhesivo tape fnom his handv !irst aid kit and sealed the opening o! the hideout. The bat wvas not ta ho denied, however. Ho 'chawed" his way through the sticky blocade ta again roam freedoin trails. But hunter Hooper had had enough. Throwing caution ta the front window ho made for the bat's hiding place with a ladder, dlimh- ed it, and bare-handed caught the monster. Ho later admltted the bat was sleeping and didn't know just what was happening. Not wanting the funnie crea- turo among bis attractive mer- chandise. Mn. Hooper turned the bat loase in the back alley which serves as a rear entrance toaa local lawyer's offices. We, won- don if that bat has as keen an in- terost in "law" as ho apparently had ln 'jewellery?" A Form of Duty Conserving the natural resour- ces of a country is a patriotic duty devolving upon every citizen. Nature's gifts have been lavishly bestowed upon us. The wealth of land. water and mine is the basis of our national prosperity, and any scheme which would con- serve that wealth must of ne- cessity be the concern of the n-, dividual as well as the crown. It matters not in what phase of our natural resources we are primar- ily interested; wild life, agricul- ture. forestry. mining. there is the same urgent need for using every means in our power to see that these sources of wealth are protected from unwise use. 1 pink ribbon ties. The jewollery worn by the senior attendants was the bride'$ gifts, a rhinestone necklace wlth matching earringi. Misa Lynda Twining was junior brideamaid and Miss Carol Twin- lng flower girl. They wore iden- tical floor length gowns of lime green marquisotte over satin. The short bodicep were made with squared necklinos finlshed wlth a 'bertha, and short sleeves. The full gathored sklrts had nar- row ribbon sashes li a darker shade of green tied at the front with long streamers. Thoy ware flower headdresses and their Jewellery was the bride's gift, a sterling silver locket on a fine silver chain. Their flowera were nosegays o! variegated summer flowers with streamners ta tone with their dresses. Mr. C. L. McFeeters, Bowman- ville. wvas best man for his broth- er. The ushers were Mr, Glen Forrester o! Ripley and Mr. W. C. McFeeters, Oshawa. The reception was held in the Blue Room of Hotel Genosha. To receive the guosts the bride's mother wore a dress of silver me- tallic satin with mauve accents. black accossories fand a corsage o! mauve sweet peas. Miss Violet McFeeters. Bowmanville, aiter o! the bridegroom. who assisted, wore a navy faille crepe dress with white accessorios and a cor- sage of yellow roses. A three- tier wedding cake centered the bride's table flanked with wvhite tapers in crystal holders and bouquets o! pink carnations, mauve stocks and white snap- dragons. Arrangements of the same flowers also decorated the tables for the guests. The toast ta the bride was pro- posed by Mr. J. H. Taylor and responded to by the bridegroon. Mr. C. L. MeFeeters proposed the toast to the bride's attendants, which was responded to by Mr. W. C. McFeeters. Congratulatory telegrarns were received from Hawkesbury. For the honeymoon trip the bride donned a tomato red gab- ardine suit, small white hat. white accessonies and a corsage o! white carnations. The bride- groom presented the best man with a Ronson lighter, Mn. W. C. McFeetens with a gold cigarette case and Mr. Glen Forresten re- ceived a tie pin and cuff links. The bride's bouquet was placed on the grave o! the bridegroomn's mother. Mr. and Mns. McFeeters will reside in Bowmanville on their return.

Ottawa. In harvesting, It is desirable ta rake hay into straight, even wind- rows so the hay will dry uni- formly. and large bunches, which tend to remain green at the centre, will be avoided. These green, damp bunches may cause heating ini the barn and, more- over. rnay cause overloadlng of harvesters or bailers and subse- quent time-losa due ta break- downs. In dropping long hay Into a barn froin a hay fork, labour may through a system of planks or polos whlch deflect it toward-týie sides o! the mow. This also re- duces packing below the hay fork and makes for better cUr- lng along the centre of the mow. Only long lerxgths o! chopped hay should be placed li the niow. Hay li short. two-ir4ch lengtha will form a dense mass li the mnow and will spoil ùnlçss It in extremely dry. Hay cut li tour inch lengths can be stored I1i same condition as uncut (loacer> hay. Cut hay should fbot be tramped or walked on. Baled hay can b. stored ini stacks or mows when it is cured li the samo manner as long hay gathered by the hay loader metýi od. Spacing bales about two in- ches apart in the stacks may aid in curing. If harvested toa gre, as frequently is the casete hay may heat sevorely whi a placed in storage.________ nIZr IMAVAnTIV qr,&4.QUÀV VIMWVAVMTLP- InNTAWn 'THMSDAT. JMý 211& M' 0 ____________I k CHU
