Cubs and
Beavers
A hard working crew
was observed around the

They were operating
under the supervision of
Joe Mayman, Carol
Fisher and Lori Hill.
They swarmed over the
library grounds and
several loads of leaves,
brush and other debris
disappeared in short
They were also busy
cleaning up Pioneer
Park, having already
given Clan Gregor
Square the once-over on a
previous weekend. The
Beavers joined them to
remove flotsam and
jetsam from the beach
south of the pier.
Carol Fisher provided
lunch for them at noon
and needless to say a
horde of ravenous
youngsters turned up at
her house to make short

hail prepared.

UCWwomen
remember mother
St. Andrew's UCW held
their May meeting at the
home of Mrs. Vivian
Morton with 21 ladies
present. Mrs. Jean Milne
was in charge of
devotions, the theme
being "Mothers".
Ladies assisting with
scripture and readings
were Mrs. Violet Carter,
Mrs. Doris Reddoch,
Esther Makins, and Mrs.
Vivian Morton. A Litany
of Love was read by all
and Mits. Milne told of the
story relating to the,
hymn i'I would be true",
written by Howard A.
Walter.
Ladies are invited to
the Hospital Day Tea at
Clinton on May 9th from 2
- 4 p.m. An invitation was
also received from
Brucefield on June 5 from
2 - 4 p.m. The hostess and
her helpers Elva Cox,
Nina Haw, Lilian Penhale
and Lulu Smith served a
delicious lunch and a
social time was much
enjoyed.
Mrs. 1✓lve Metcalfe
extended an invitation to
our ladies to hold the
June meeting at her
residence.
Taxes lowered by council
The budget for 1979
approved by the Village
Council on Monday night
determines a mill rate of
177.16 for residential and
209.93 for commercial
properties. These rates
are lower than those of
1978 which were 188.04
and 216 respectively. It is
worth noting that this
rate was achieved by
setting a lower
residential mill rate of
52.47 than the Board of
Education mill rate for
elementary schools of
55.24. The residential rate
established for separate
school supporters is 57.23.
In further con-
sideration of village
taxes, the Council has
asked for a re-
assessment of village
properties. In order that
equity of assessment may
be achieved, it is
requesting the province
to conduct a re-
assessment under section
86 of the Assessment Act.
This section empowers
property assessors to
make corrections for 1979
so that similar properties
of similar value will be
placed on an equal
footing for . local tax
purposes.
Councillors believe that
many, probably most,
village properties are
correctly assessed and
that their taxes will not
change appreciably.
However, adjustments
will occur where, for
example, two homes
whose market value
established in 1975 is the
same, say $40,000, have
different assessments,
due largely to when they
were built. A home built
20 years ago may have
the same market value as
one built ten years ago,
and yet have only half the
assessment. Summer
cottages which have been
winterized and thus have
increased in value may
undergo re -assessment
accordingly.
If a taxpayer has
discussed his property
tax with his assessor and
is still not satisfied, he or
she has the right to ap-
peal to the Assessment
Review Court. The
procedure for making
such an appeal is ex-
plained on the back of4he
assessment notice.
Complaints received
about dogs running loose
received sympathetic
attention from the
Council and a warning
was again given to dog
owners that according to
a village by-law, all dogs
have to be confined to
their own property. It is
hoped that a warning will
be sufficient.
A regular meeting of
Council will be held on
Monday, May 21st.
Garden Club blooming
Hayfield has for many
years had a happy
association with the
Clinton Horticultural
Society; some 50 to 60
members pay their dues
and receive their ex-
cellent year book in the
spring and bonus bulbs in
the fall.
Some of us from time to
time have had the
pleasure of attending
their excellent meetings,
but it is a distance to
travel, especially in the
winter.
Now it is felt that we
should form an
organization in Bayfield.
This is something which
has often been discussed
by many people over the
years and always with
the opinion that indeed
we should do this.
1979, the turn of the
decade is the time for us
to begin and accordingly

Why have so many minister
left the federal cabinet?
THIS HAS TO TELL US SOMETHING!
An effective voice for Ontario
.
no longer holds its proper place
in federal government decisions
under the present administration.
A Progressive Conservative team
would restore Ontario's proper
influence indecisions that
affect all of us
A Progressive Conservation gover-
nment would also ensure
Parliamentary control over gover-
nment spending which has not been
the case since the present Prime
Minister changed the rules in the
House of Commons in 1969 by the
closure method.
