Public school supporters are to pay for 35,83 per 'cent of the Ward's cost of. operating compar- ed to 32.96 last 'year. Provincial grants account for 59.74 per cent of the board's fmancing, compared to 62.48 per cent in 1977. °Mrs. Barbara Herman, board chairman, said a public school supporter, in Stratford with , a home assessed at $3.000 will be paying $16.38 more in taxes this, year on the education mill rate for the city of 34.24 mills up from 31.68 mills last year. ' J.L.Anderson, superintendent of business and finance, said the board's 1,23 per cent grant increase is part of tile govern- ment's announced plan to try to balance its budget. He said across the province school boards were to receive , ••ars • •average grant increase of 4.79 per cent but the Perth board was given a smaller increase, because in the pro- ce's view, Perth's assessment is above the Ontario average.

Higher ()HIP payments must be paid this year and declining enfolitients play a key role in the grants which are dependent pn the number of students in the school. trustee Bownaan said.

He said the govehment will allow the board a ceiling of $1,299 to spend on an elementary pupil and $1,841 for a secondary student, increases of 8.52 per cent and 7.54 per cent, respect- -ively. He. said if a school board "Pierces that ceiling then the local taxpayer must pay the full amount of the excess".

It 'is easier to say hoW we use energy than to define it. Almost every- thing we do 'rises some' :type of energy. In'fact, nothing happens ja, our lives. sue r society, or the universe without energy. The food we eat contains energy, .the fuels we burn contain energy. The electricity' we is a type of energy. We are always us?ng energy. There are L two "laws" which describe the behaviour of energy • Lin the universe: The first states •that the total amount of energy is constant. Energy cannot be created or destroyed. The energy in a gallon of gas is not lost whe n you burn it in a Car engine. The energy has .been converted into heat and forward . motion and the amount of energy in the heat and motion is the same as was present in the gas. A change has taken place though. The usefulness of the energy has decreased. This brings us to the second law regarding energy. It states that any transformation of energy increases' the disorder or randomness of the energy. -Energy. flows fmm high murky areas, such' as the high temper- ature in the engine cylinder, to low quality areas. such as the exhaust. Eventually all the ..senergy in ,the_ universe will he degraded to a large amount of low- quality energy. It is the second law regarding energy.whch is important to keep in minthas. we use energy. The first laW 'tells us we will never run out of energy,..but.the second law warns us that it is 'the quality, of the energy. which is important. HigiCcifiaty energy can be used td do work, but once it is used' its ability to do more work is lost; When we talk about saving . or conserving energy we talking about using, 'our high quality energy resources wisely, so that we do not wastefully conVeTT to . low grade energy. Future columns. will look at types Of . energy, w'ays to conserve energy and save money and future •energy sources, If yOu have ideas, or questions -regarding this column, please send or .bring tisern to the Energy Conservation Centres, 36A West Street, Goderich. 524-4114 or Campbell Street, Lucknow, 528-3304.
