SLIP Money Slow Coming In ; o 60% Of Tax Levies Paid With only a quarter of the year left to go, the Ontario County Board of Education _hasreceived only about 60 per cent of "its municipal tax levies.

Sone don't approve of the new county system and will probably not pay until live a little! 8 n All you need is an automatic washer and electric dryer. With one setting of a simple control, the washer fills itself, washes; drains, rinses, and -damp-dries.-Then the dryer takes over. Keeps your clean wash free from impurities in the air.

You've banished your washday blues! With" an automatic washer and electric dryer, you don't have to do the whole family wash the same day. Do a little at a time. Whenever you feel like it. Even when it's pouring rain.

Listed as completely delin- quent so far are the Village of Beaverton and the townships of Scugog, Uxbridge, Thorah, Scott, Rama, Mara and Brock. None of the municipalities have so far paid their full share of the $16,411,532 municipal levy, although most of the larger municipalities have paid from % to % of their levies. to iron out difficulties in the new county equalized assess- ment without going to court, ment of Municipal .
