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.

"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- day night if a decision was reached to revert to angle park- ing on main street properly 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.
