Oy that stands first
les the week that mai spent with a
family named Durst
A family so, friendly, good-
- natured and kind
Our city -cares soon were left far
behind, ° •
r, We enjoyed every , day to its
fullest extent
And found many new pleasures
wherever we went.
From the house to the barn;
through the fields, to the dam,
We walked and we played, we
fished and we swam,
And three times each day came,
the very best treat...
The, most wonderful food; 'Twas
a privilege to eat!
- 'So now we're refreshed, in body
and soul •
We've -straw in our hair, and

that good food which we 'et'
But we'd happily do it again,
you can bet!
Now we all want to say, 'to
Albert and Phyl,
To Gerry and 4Jim, to Debbie
and Rill,
For all that you,did, from begin-
ning to 'end,
Thank ' you, thank 'you, and
thank .you again!!!
"The following note was writ-
ten by' a guest who is an English
teacher and mother of four;
"As the school year . grinds
along, and pressure of work to
be done piles up, I find myself
thinking, more and more
frequently of your home and the
marvelously relaxing times we
have enjoyed there. You've
probably heard the same,
thought expressed by many
people, how the Dursts seems
like a tranquil island in a raging
sea, both in reality and ,in
memory. Even the thought of ,
you,the farm, and your family
has a calming effect" •
"Another one simply says,
"Just a note, to say thanks for
being you." • '
"It's when we and the other
farm hosts receive dozens of
such warm letters that we
realize we have something
special to offer urban people
and in doing so, have discovered
that the greatest benefits "of
Farm Vacations are priceless.

the 1972 property taxes
Low income families in On-
tario will be able to recover up
to 42 percent of their 1972
property taxes through' income
tax refunds financed by the On-
tario Government. '
The impact of the Ontario
program is shown in a staff
paper made public recently by
Treasurer Charles S.
MacNaughton who said' it
justifiesgovernment, concern
over an action to offset the
regressive—effect of -p -o ert
taxation. ,
Using Guelph, which is
representatiw4t*,provip e.
a whole'' e' st ay found'
property tax credits for 1972
will range from $123 for low in-
come families to $50 for those
earning' between $10,000 and
$12,000. Maximum credit is
$250.
Mr. MacNaughton said the
property tax credit plan was in-
troduced 'in the 1972 budget as
part of the government's con-
tinuing effort to make taxation
more equitable. The study, he
said, shows the credits made the
combined burden of income and
property taxes correspond more
closely to the ability to pay.
The property tax credits
replace the' basic shelter grants
which ha�re -been in effect in On-
tario since 1968. •
Property owners in Ontario
will be able to claim $90 plus 10
percent of their property taxes
less one percent of their taxable
income when they file income
tax returns early in the New
Year. Tenants will be able to
claim $90 plus two percent of
their rent less one percent of
taxable income in determining
their property tax credit,
Along with tax credits, two
additional programs are being
continued this year: the 2.5 per-,
cent farm tax rebates and the
$50 to $100 supplementary tax
relief grants to needy pen-
sioners. Eventually efforts will
be made to 'incorporate special
relief for farmers and. pensioners
into the tax credit system.

clusive evidence to support

Guelph proved ideal .for the
-purpose because it is the first

pleted by provincial assessors:
