T-A photo Reject request to tax payments to 9 Times-Advocate, February 14, 1979 Page 17 increase number of county school board uican and district news :4f. of Lucan council Tuesday turned down a request from the Middlesex Board of Education regarding the number of education levy payments to be made each year. A letter from the board said the finance committee could have saved from $60,- 000 to $70,000 in interest charges on borrowings last year had education levies been paid by all municipalities monthly in­ stead of quarterly. Councillor Norm Steeper who is vice-principal of Bid- dulph Central School declared an interest and declined comment on the matter. Lucan will continue to sub­ mit the education tax levies to the county on the present basis of four times per year. Clerk Ed Melanson said auditors are now working on the 1978 business and he ex­ pected a special meeting would be held sometime in March to set the budget and tax rate for this year. He said due to the fact in­ terim tax billings were late being sent out an extension on the first payment has been made to February 19. The first tax billings are based on one-quarter of the 1978 rate. Adjustments will be made on ensuing billings after the budget and mill rate has been struck. The three other tax payment due dates are May 15, August 15 and November 15. A bylaw was given final reading appointing Joseph Jackson as the bylaw of­ ficer. Jackson now has the authority to enforce any municipal bylaw passed by village council. Council appointed Paul McIntyre as the engineer on the project to rebuild and pave Beech street from Alice to Market providing costs come within the proposed budget. Application will be made to the Ontario Ministry of Transportation and Com­ munications for subsidies on $4,249.75, which was an over­ run on the Albert street con­ struction completed last fall. Councillor Norm Steeper told council he had received many favourable comments on this winter’s snow removal program and com­ mended works superinten­ dent for his efforts in keep­ ing the streets clean. Councillor Harry Wraith asked about progress on the Chestnut street drain and was told by engineer Paul Mclntrye “None”.

Keith Brown in Lucan United Church on Sunday. Speaking from Matthew 4, Mr. Brown said it was a message for ages 9 to 99 as we are born with a sense of adventure. As an example he used the game of “follow the leader” where sometimes that leader does foolish or wrong things and those following continue as they do not want to be called “chicken,” even though they may know it is wrong. Christ called His disciples to “Follow Me”. He calls us today and we can experience the love and joy of following Him into adventure, so that others may be won to Him. There is no greater service we can offer to another person than to lead him to join us in following Jesus Christ. Jesus leads us eventually to our Heavenly Home which He has gone to prepare for us. The happiest people in all the world are those who have given their lives to Jesus Christ and are sincerely trying to follow Him day-by- day and week-by-week.

The first two groups made “Healthy Peanut Bread” with Sheila Jones, Laurie Burns and Karen VanderLoo taking part and the members enjoyed sampling this ex­ cellent source of the B vitamins. In Lucan 3 club, Marjorie Dykeman made a yogurt loaf which the girls liked, much to their amazement, and to demonstrate the versatility of this loaf, half of it was frozen for the next meeting. All three clubs made “Energy Squares” with Debbie Manders and Jane Thompson doing the honours for the Nutritrious Nuts, Lori McLeod for the Healthy Hillbillies, and Hodgins for club 3. Members read discussed, from members pamphlet, the section dealing with meetings and one club discussed their recipe files. Club 3 had a unique way of demonstrating a nutritious breakfast. The members were each given a magazine and came up with cut-outs of food pictures to illustrate a good breakfast. The leaders felt this would impress upon the girls the fact that the old “standard” breakfasts were not the only types nutritious ones available. The three 4-H clubs met this week with Lucan 1 at the home of the assistant leader Bev Huffman, Tuesday, choosing the name of “The Nutritious Nuts.” Lucan 2 met Wednesday at the home of the leader Mrs. John Vander Loo when the members decided to call themselves Hillbillies.” Wed, February 14 Doors Open 7:15 P.M.
