Were the people who cleared our soil Long before agribusiness, all began Our forefather familys did toil. They grew big crops, for their own good use But they used it all at home To feed the cattle, and sell on the hoof Their debts were small or none. Their work was hard, their day was long But they alweys had time to chat And they moved about, with a happy song But to-day we've lost all, of that. They were close knit familys, who trusted in God o make things turn out right T'was a way of life for these lovers of sod But that way has most moved out of sight. Perpetual debt, is big farming to-day With mental burdenthatdrowns out all song Chemical farming has im- proved, the God trusting way With big payments we just musn't go wrong.' We don't love the soil, but the dollars it brings With some extra to make a trip to the south We've lost faith, 'health and con- tentment,_the most important of things Just to entertain our bodies and mouth. , But the small farming family, is still in our midst He's looked on with pity to-day Just because he loves soil, and deep morning mist And no perpetual debt payments to pay.

This statement is grossly ex- aggerated. Following are facts relative to the calculation of the grant the County Board ' ceives from the Provincial Gov- ernment for Ordinary Expendi- tures. These figures were obtained 'from the County Board' administrative office and were available to me as a public school taxpayer. 1. 1972 Recognized Ordinary Expenditure $4,294,495. 2. 1972 Ordinary Expenditure Grant 70.70%. 3. 1972 Equalized Asses- sment $315,869,227. 4. 1972 Eq- ualized Assessment per pupil $38,934; 5. 1972 Average Daily Enrolment 8,113; 6. 1972 Re- cognized Expenditure per pupil $529.335. A. Without 193 pupils of the Clinton and District Christian School - 8113 pupils @ $529.335 each ..... $4,294,495. Grant 70.70% $3,036,208. Taxpayers' Cost $ 1,258,287. Equalized Mill Rate 3.98 mills. B. With 193 pupils of the Clinton and District Christian School - 1. Recognized Or- dinary Expenditure $4,396,657; 2. Ordinary Expenditure Grant 71.39%; .3. Equalized Assess- ment $315,869,227; 4. Equal- ..ed assessment per pupil• $38,029; 5. Average daily en- rolment 8306; 6 . Recognized Expenditure per pupil $529.3a5 8306 pupils @ $529.335 $4,396,657 Grant EqualizedTa x each aacy7hei r.839°/°' M ill Co st rate a t e 3.98 mills. $3,138,773 $1,257,884 Comparison: Taxpayers' Cost without Clin- ton and District Christian School pupils $1,258,287. Taxpayers' Cost with Clinton4and District Christian School pupils ...... $1,257,884. Difference $ 403. The above comparison indi- cates Mr. Broadfoot's claim is grossly exaggerated. What he failed to recognize however, is the effect the local assessment of the parents whose children attend the Clinton and District Christian I School, has to the Huron County Board taxpayers in spreading over, at a lower taxrate, the un- recognizable extraordinary ex- penditure of the Board, such as transportation, debt charges etc. It becomes obvious that there is an overall advantage to the Huron County taxpayers without the 193 pupils who attend the Glinton and District Christian School while the 'supporters of the, Christian School receive no benefit whatever. Parents whose children attend the Clinton and District Christian School pay thousands of dollars each year in elementary school tax to the County Board for which they receive no value. we therefore believe our request is justified to share transportation facilities and eliminate the need of running buses on the same route.
