Hay School Board
To Hold Cheques,
Reduce Mill Rate
Zurich, Switzerland Newspaper Telis
Readers About Ontario Namesake
The Public School Board of
the Township School Area of
Hay has decided to hold the
three cheques that bad been
previously designated for the
municipalities of Hay, Stephen
and Zurich.
Board members had voted at
the February meeting to return
the accumulated surplus over
$5000 in the form of cash to the
three municipalities in propor-
tion to the assessment of each,
If this had been done, about
80% of $13,195.41 would have
gone out to Hay Township coun-
cil, with another 18% paid to
Zurich and the remaining 2%
going to Stephen.
Ian McAllister, chairman of
the board, told Hay Township
council Monday afternoon, the
school board has since learned
from Inspector 'J. G. Burrows
and the department of educa-
tion in Toronto, this is not rec-
ommended.
Zurich, Ontario, Canada, so
impressed a visitor from Zurich,
Switzerland, that he returned to
his country's capital city to
write an article for the daily
newspaper t h e r e "Tages-An-
zeiger".
The item rated full page cov-
erage complete with four large
pictures taken by the author,
Ernst Naef, while on a trip
through Canada last year. A
copy of the article is on display
in the window of the Zurich
Citizens News office.
The clipping was received by
Mrs, Anne Turkheim from a
pen pal, Mrs. Lottie Kloster, in
Zurich, Switzerland. Mrs. Turk-
heim kindly translated the con-
tents of the article written in
German and we print parts of it
here for your enjoyment.
"Zurich, Canada, is a peace-
ful, little farm community
where there are no traffic prob-
lems, no parking meters and no
blocked streets. Away from the
noise and confusion of a big
city, these 750 Zurichers live
their simple life.
He said the board had never
received any real directive from
any source concerning what to
do with the surplus, but added
that it is now quite clear that
the best procedure is for the
board to retain the money.
McAllister said it was his un-
derstanding that school support-
ers in Hay, Stephen and the
village of Zurich now get the
benefit of the entire surplus
through a reduction in school
taxes for one year.
He said school supporters in
Hensall will also get compensa-
tion for their surplus of $334.59.
The amount of money the
school board requires from
municipality for education pur-
poses will be decided. Each
municipality will then receive
a credit for their share .ofr any
accumulated surplus in that
municipality. By subtracting
the credit from the debit, the
amount owing will be shown.
In this way, the board main-
tains some much needed work-
ing capital, and the surpuls
made up of money paid for edu-
cational purposes will be re-
turned on school taxes alone.

A SAFE WAY
God gives us direction and says, "Consider your ways".
"In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy
paths." Jesus the only way — "I am the WAY, the
truth, and the life: no man cometh to the Father except
by Me." Thus saith the Lord, "Behold, I set before you
the way of life, and the way of death."
"'Commit thy way unto the Lord"
"Trust also in Him, and He shall bring it to pass,"
THE MENNONITE EVANGELISM COMMITTEE
posts at the entrance marked
"Village of Zurich Community
Park.
"I asked the reeve, 'Has any-
one heard of Zurich, Switzer-
land,'
"'Oh, yes,' Mr. Oeseh said,
`I received a letter from there
a few years ago. It must be a
very nice place. I'd like to go
there sometime',
"Zurich, Canada, has no rail-
way or even a bus service. The
most prominent means of trans-
partation passes Zurich within
six miles.
"People who do not own a
car have to depend on their
thumb or their own two feet
if they want to visit the next
village."
"The Church and the Com-
munity in Conflict" was the
topic studied by the Unique
Farm Forum members last
week. The discussion will be
continued Monday night at the
home of Mr. and Mrs. Carl
Oestreicher, Dashwood.
The group resolved the goals
of the community are to make
a living. The goals of the
church are to make that living
complete with spiritual strength
and resources.
When the community chills,
or tends to over -ride the church,
it lessens the church's power
for good.
The church is needed by all
men in every walk of life. The
church's mission is to teach the
truth and all men must be tried
by that truth.

OPP Constable Ray Gillen
told Grand Bend Council Mon-

reached to revert to angle park-

worded signs should be erected
advising of it.
A parallel parking by-law
passed in 1952, but never en-
forced, has been implemented
in the village within the last
month. The by-law has provis-
ions for angle parking providing
clearly marked signs are put up.
At a February meeting, some
main street businessmen com-
plained the parallel parking
regulations would have an ad-
verse effect on their summer
business. They said only about
half the number of cars could
now be parked in front of their
establishments.
