It is expected that the new budget will mean that 14 of the County's 22 municipalities will have mill rate increases ranging from .2 in Lobo to 15.9 in Delaware, The increases are due to the fact that mill rates were reduced last year when surpluses and overlevies were repaid to many centres.

Expected education mill rates .with 1970 and 1971 figures in brackets. are: Parkhill 9 (10.4, 8); Strathroy 35.3(42,5, 36) ;Ailsa Craig 8,2 (13. 4.4); Glencoe 8 (14.5, 10.5); Lucan 5.9 (14.7 3.9); Newbury 33.4 (39.5 38.9); Wardsville 31.5 (37.9, 41.2); Adelaide Twp, 35.7 (41.5, 27.6); Biddulph Twp. 41.9 (58.3, 36.1); Caradoc Twp. 40.8 (41.4, 47.6); Delaware Twp. 44.7 (51.9, 28.8); North Dorchester Twp, 48.2 (55.3, 38.5); Ekfrid Twp, 44.2 (50.2, 50.7); Lobo Twp. 48 (56.4, 47.13); London Twp. 42.9 (51.5, 35.3); McGillivray Twp. 42.6 (48,3, 32,5); Metcalfe Twp. 41 (40,7, 44.1); West Nissouri Twp. 41.4 (56.5, 38.6); Westminster Twp. 42.8 (43.7, 33.6); East Williams Twp. 37.5 (38.9, 44.3); West Williams Twp. 30.8 (52.3, 26.2); Mosa Twp. 44.8 (49.8, 36).

The brief stated that as rail passenger service deteriorated in this area, people turned more and more to the use of the roads which "were adequate at one time," Now that highway traffic has multiplied and rail passenger service has been withdrawn, the The Board also approved an experimental no-cost music enrichment program for the balance of this school year for twenty-four grade 7 and 8 students at Northdale and River Heights Schools in Dorchester.

"time of travel" has been in- creased for the people in Huron County, Time of travel is important, the brief went on, in the area of business and commerce com- petition and costs to individuals and,companies, "For our industries to compete in the large market areas of the world, we must have rapid transportation of the raw materials to these industries and rapid transportation of the finished product to the world markets," the brief said. "We cannot expect to compete until the time of travel for these goods is cut to the point where we can enter the market with a product whose costs are competitive and not penalized by the high rate of transportation," The report further noted that tourist business is seriously hampered by the slow tran- sportation system. "The product of rapid tran- sportation would ‘aid the development of tourist resorts in this part of the country and therefore provide a large secondary industry for our agriculturally oriented people," the read. Popular girl named Queen Amid loud cheers from the dance floor and the gallery, Lynne Farquhar was named Queen of South Huron District `high school at• the strokeof mid- night., Friday. The friendly, effervescent and modest e 17 year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Aub Farquhar of Exeter appeared to be the popular choice of the students. Lynne said she was "awfully, excited, really happy and thrilled" to be named Queen from a total of seven contestants chosen by the senior students of the school, Her escort was Gary Hartman. The student council presented her with a silver tray. She also received a trophy donated by Mrs. Jennie Rowe and presented by a former Queen, Jean (Jen- nison) Mason and a necklace from Jack Smith Jewellers. Lynne a grade 12 student at SH- DI-IS will be working in the snack bar at the Exeter swimming pool this summer and will be retur- ning to grade 13 studies this fall. The theme of this year's dance was "Around The World" and colorful decorations depicted many foreign countries.

He succeeds D. J, Gendall of Edmonton, Alberta, Mr. Smith noted that ac- ceptance of mobile homes as a form of low cast housing in Canada is very evident. The number of Canadian made mobile homes sold in Canada rose from 9,000 in 1970 to15,090 in 1971. The acceptance of double- wides was evident during the past year as the numbers sold rose from 400 in 1970 to 1,200 in 1971. Double-wides are two 12 foot wide units placed together, side by side, to give a 24 foot wide home. Most double-wides are 60 feet in length and the square footage is approximately the same as conventional three bedroom bungalows. Mr. Smith also noted that the mobile home percentage of single family dwellings increased from 14.8 percent of the market to 16.2 during 1971, He remarked that this has happened because of our construction standards (the Canadian Standards Z240 series).
