Last week, Class B went to a
pond to see where red -winged
black birds live. Suddenly, a
dark shape started swimming
across the water. What was it? It
came very close to the quiet
watchers and sat up on so.nie
reeds to do some watching'
himself. The class thinks that the.'
dark furry animal is probably a
muskrat.

The birds start to sing and

And all the world seems cheery

Some children olay.marbles and
some -play
But each child's 'included one

too.
Raindrops ,.,are falling through
skies of blue. ,
Boys get ball gloves and fishing
poles.
Girls with jump ropes have joy
filled souls. ,
The snow is gone, and grass will
appear.
Everyone shouts. Yea! Spring is v.
here!
''Spring Has Come"

The' time has come to' work the

Fields must be "plowed,..'
Seeds mustbe sown
And soon all ' crops will start to
grow.
Flowers peep above the ground,
And bloom again , without a •

Spring cleaning once again
begins,
The time for cleaning rooms and

Winter has passed,.
.Itis Spring at last!
"Spring"
by Marg Willis
Spring is a pleasant season.
If you don't believe me I'll give
you a reason,
The birds are singing.
The bells are ringing.
The children are playing.
And daffodils swaying. p
The cows are grazing onres fresh
green grass.

she has been given a jug of milk and a dozen eggs by' the
members of the National Farmers' Union Local 335- last

BY WILMA OKE
The Huron -Perth County
Roman Catholic Separate
School Board at , a special
meeting .held in Sea"forth re-
cently decided to hold. the line
)n/the grill rate in .Stratford..'
There will be no increase in,
• the, mill rate which will remain
at last year's level of 31.72
mills resident'i'al and 35.24 mills
commercial with _the total levy
for Stratford ,amounting to
$103.086: '
The 'purpose of maintaining
the mill rate was to pick, up the
1969 and 1970 underlevies of
$240, and $3862 resbectively in
Stratford and thus -allow the
board to break. even in the
19.71 operation within the
municipality.:
The board also ,approved the
rates for the -.remaining.. •i 1
municipalities of which 20 will
have a decrease, one will remain
the seine and 23 will have an
increase over last year',s levy
which -; was the same, as, the
'public school, rate. The • one
which' remains the same as• last
•, e %r ib..lI.ay Township.
Jack- Lane, Business-
'A.dministrator, reported; "The -
.reason ' for not following the
public school rates this` year is
that ,the Department of .
Educating .specifies• that all
surpluses from - fo'rmer, school
boards prior , to • county
formation be returned to the
municipalities in 197`1', and, as •

Some balloons do get around,
as. Brian Straughn, son of Mr.
and Mrs, Martin Straughn, RR 2,
Goderich, can testify', "
• It seems Martin found a
balloon on Sunday of last week
about five miles south of here
near the lace's eJge,
• ' Inside was a note ; from
Dnn,ny Renteria. a , Grade 2
student at Hood Creek Rchool in
• Raeine, Wisconsin.
The .date' of the note was
December 41, 1970.
The balloon was -a project of
•the "schol3/ pam,t `aera: krr,
were a ' few of the inflated
objects tied' alongside the one
Brian found. •
LETTER
a result, "many municipalities
-will receive 'refunds _which` will
result in a considerable decrease
in public school rates."
Certain' municipalities within..
the public system have
surpluses whereas the
Huron -Perth Board -may have
had a deficit .in these'.
municipalities qn amalgamation
with the county system,
consequently are unable . to
remain with the public school
mill rate.
It is anticipated that in sums ,.w.
areas where the "public school.
mill rate has been lowered this
year ''the mill .rate will be •
increased nett year to meet
local requirements.

,The editor,
Anyone who': looks for
communists under the bed has
got to be a nutT'Mbst people are
kept busy enough spotting them
on our University campuses, is
government departments, High
Schools, School.. Boards -and
P.T.A., civil rights 'groups and
"liberation" fronts — not to
mention those masquerading as
"liberals," "Progressives" or
"peace" promoters.
Between keeping an eye on
.the communist press.,
"friendship," "reconciliation"
and "co -existence" groups, not
to .mention" draft dodger and
deserter committees, there's,
hardly time to look under, the
bed. "
If - We did, we'd probably find
a gutless and apathetic majority
huddled together in fear of the

battle ' in Abe- Cold' ".War of
subversion, infiltration and
