Almost every municipality in Durham has been hit hard, by proposed budgets from Durham District High School Board, although to date in Bowmanville, counicil has not discussed the subject openly. Port Hope probably will be faced with at least a 1-mili increase,, Clarke with 14 milîs due *to an additional jump to take care of Public School requirements. It would appear at the moment that ail municipalities will have te raise taxes considerably. There is no end to it,, is there? t t+ i t. t FLORAL - Next Wednesday an effort will be made here to stimulate sufficient interest axnong residents to form a Horticultural Society in Bow- manville.
