(Shelley McPhee photo) Village taxes to rise 7.96 % from last year Bayfield taxpayers will see their taxes rise by 7.96 'ter cent this year. The 1984 mcrease remains close to the eight per cent rise in last year's taxes. Village Clerk Pat Graham said that municipal financing and budgeting are geared toward the six and five per cent government guidelines, but because of Bayfield's small tax base, it was difficult to limit increases to those levels. This, he explained, is a problem faced by many small communities. In dollars and cents, a public school supporter with an assessment of $3,000 will be paying $1,013.22 in taxes this year. The mill rate for that taxpayer is 337.739. The separate school residential supporter's mill rate will be 340.33, which translates to $1,020.99, based on a $3,000 assessment. There are no separate commercial supporters in Bayfield, but public commercial supporters will pay $1,192.02 in taxes, on a $3,000 assessment. Their mill rate is 397.34. The dollar levies for the various tax purposes in 1984 are as follows, (with last year's figures appearing in brackets): general municipal $130,165 ($119,674); county purposes $51,022 ($43,168); public school $101,737 ($90,415); secondary school $87,458 ($79,892); separate school $5,907 ($5,906). Visitor to be presented to Queen By Doris Hunter The old cry was "The Queen, the Queen, God Bless her, and the crowds of people who were here were certainly blessing Victoria for the gloOus holiday weekend.

In fact, time changes mentioned in the Bay field Council report were made for the village's Bank of Commerce, not the library branch. The new hours take effect in June. The News -Record apologizes for this error and any inconveniences it may have caused. Lion's Club pancake breakfast is great success Bicentennial Up -date By Helen Owen PANCAKE BREAKFAST: Bayfield Lions' Club reported a good attendance at their Pancake Breakfast held in the Com- munity Centre on May 20. The liberal help- ings are always appreciated, and the occa- sion generates a friendly and relaxed at- mosphere. The next breakfast will take. place on Sun- day morning July 1 when it is hoped that the Cricket Team from Channel 10 TV will ar- rive in time to sustain themselves with an excellent meal before the game. They have already intimated that this is'their intention as they have enjoyed Bayfield hospitality on previous occasions. A VINTAGE YEAR: It is a well known fact that many Bayfield residents have adopted wine -making as a hobby, some perhaps as a scientific project - and others. perpetuating a family tradition. Samples of their products indicate the success of their endeavours. This Bicentennial year would seem to be an apprc3priate opportunity for them to be thinking in terms of producing a vintage to celebrate the occasion! Maybe, following on the theme of the future as well as the past, they might extend their ac- tivities and consider a special wine -tasting ceremony a year from now to evaluate the best of '84?

During the Sunday evening service last week Miss Evelyn Schell brought greetirigs from the Canadian Sunday School Mission of Quebec and showed lides of the work being done there to bring the message of Salvation to boys and girls, young people, and families. This is accomplished through Christian camps through the summer mon- ths and winter projects duringthe winter. She said it is worth all of the, work and the time to see these children, many from broken homes, Unloved/ and uncared for, blossom out and whenthey do come face to face with Jesus Christ, to see the changes in their attitudes toward the others, their • counsellors, and even to all in authority. . Many are reluctant to leave the camp and 'return home but. they do know that now Jesus goes with them, she said. As a special tribute to mothers the last slide was one of Evelyn's Mother, Mrs. Ray Schell, who, before her death • was' known and loved in the Church and in the village, so this was greatly appreciated and brought many happy mernories.

It is rumored that he is about to change the name back to the New Ritz, which is what it was called when it was built after the famous fire, which destroyed the original Ritz. We used to think the name came as an attempt to suggest a little grandeur, but in fact the owner was Martha Ritz, who subsequently married Tom Bailey who lived next door in the house now owned by Len and Irene Apedaille.
