for the recording ot property transactions with the registry oftice ure included in the 1488 budget During the discussion over the advisability ot overhauling the evaluation roll in 1888, former coun cillor Donald Tobin recalled the advice of the evaluator a4 few vears ago who said there would be no point in redoing the roll.as this would not bring back to the municipality the money it would cost to du it.(Editor's note - It must be pointed out that, whether it brings them more money or not.municipalities must, by law.update their evaluation roll from time to time).Tobin told the council.that, to him, it may be wise for Hemmingford to wait before having a new evaluation roll drawn up.Councillor Beattie Barr.also speaking from ex perience.believes the Township moved too hastily when it made a new roll in the seventies.Tobin added this comment on this matter lf vou omit the $34.000 1t Will take for the new roll.then vou would lower the tax rate by 81 2cents.\u201d In answer to the above comments.mayor Donald Hadley.pointed out that 809 of the wwnship's properties are evaluated too low \u201cIt's been 10 years since the last roll was made\u201d.mayor Hadley went on to say.IUs a good time to start budgeting for this expense if you plan to doit @ det vee Fue atall Councillor Yvon Cravel added that the matter had been discussed a couple ot vears ago and ut had been decided that a new roll must be made by 1958 Uncertainties several figures in the budget are estimates, due to the uncertam nature of revenues The largest amount 1s the amusement tax trom Pare Salariwhich added $142.49 to the municipal coffers in 1987 But the 1988 budget foresees a revenue of only SHU.000 from that source Keven Filzsimon questioned the Mayor on how this figure was determined.\u201cBecause of the excellent vear they had this year.they foresee a lower season next year.mayor Hadley said.Fitzsimon asked who checks that proper payment is being made (5% on ticket sales' to the municipality.Last year.the mavor and secretary visited the park to check idmission tickets which are numbered.\u201cYou've got to take whal they give us\u201d replied Hadley I Parc Safari realizes another good veur, the municipality could find an additional $50,000 in its bank account.but it depends highly on the value of the Canadian dollar.and and.most of all.the weather Fitzsimon said that the tax increase is thus based on the assumption that there won't be any money for dezoning farm land by Ramona Rougerie In its Land Management Plan, the MRC du Haut-St- Laurent has provided for 536 hectares of land to be taken out of the Green Zone.to be used for purposes other than agriculture.These requests for exclusion from the Green Zone which represent 0.5% of the MRC's total territory of 114.800 hectares, were forwarded to the MRC by the municipalities.And the latter in turn acted for the most part on demands made to them by their own residents.A large delegation of the St-Jean-Valleyfield chapter of the UPA (Union of Farm Producers) answered the MRC's invitation to attend a special meeting held on Wednesday.Feb .10.The MRC wanted to have the opinion of the local farm producers on this subject and possibly their support, Urbanist Jean Tétrault of the firm Aménatech.with the help of a projector.went over the requests for exclusion from the Green Zone was for only 31.5 hectares, and not 138, as mentioned in the original papers sent to the CPTAQ \u2018Farm Land Protection Commission).Sites B and C were also shown on the map and explained.One of the questions the UPA representatives asked was how many building permits had been issued recently by the municipality of Dundee.The aÂswer was none in the last two vears.Someone even added the information that in the Village of Ste- Agnes itself.no house has been built in the last on years.Another UPA spokesman said that some of them had gone to see all the lots that the MRC and the municipalities are asking to be excluded from the Green Zone.He added that their policy is that no farm land should be turned over for construction purposes before all the land available for building in villages had been used up.The mayor of Ste-Barbe.Gerald Pinsonneault.expressed strong reservations to this way of thinking.To him.it\u2019s not fair to form an opinion on the basis of how many building permits were issued in a village.Sometimes no permit has been asked for the very reason that people know there is no land available in the village In the case of the Village of Ste-Agnes, the UPA was not aware of an important fact.some lots in the village have never heen built on because there is a dispute as to jurisdiction - it has never been deter mined if the lots are in Dundee or partly in the Indian Reservation Mavor Paul-Maurice Patenaude added jokingly that he would be ven grateful to the UPA they could solve this age old problem Franklin In Franklhn tive sites are listed tor exclusion trom the Green Zone For three of the sites.1's mostly à matter of Making official un established situation these sites are already used tor purposes other than farming Mayor Jean Gilles Hourdeau told the UPA that all the requests tor dezoning were made by citizens to the council Godmanchester The UPA expressed agreement with the request of Gudmanchester to have about 12 hectares dezoned Mayor Philippe Leblanc.who is himself à farmer.said that anyone who would be foolish enough to take à plow to this land would quickly end up with a broken plow This land 1s solid rock.The UPA as favorable to the request because Godmanchester has no other White Zone at all.Havelock The request for exclusion in Havelock concerns only two owners who happen to have land located party in the White Zone and partly in Green Zone Hinchinbrooke The UPA representatives expressed reservations about the request of Hin- chinbrooke Township to have 18.8 hectares taken out of the Green Zone Some asked why lots already in the White Zone are not being used for building houses Mavor Roland Greenbank ex plained that some of these lots are not fit for building because of the presence of the Schuyler Discharge.or because of the danger ot flooding.The idea of dezoning parts ot lots 17 and 14 is that thes are located near the Town of Huntingdon and would therefore fit in with the urban perimetre The munmicipalits ot Hin chinbrouke would like to concentrate all future residental development ot ils territory an that area st-Malachie A Major correction vas brought to the requests tor dezomne trom St Malache RIL SL To tas.covavillor Barr rephed that.on the con rary, sone money car marked as revenue na not even come mn Fou example, the 55,000 written mo the budget as grant revenue for ditch work might not be paid by the provincial government as it seems that mumeipalities with higher tax rates are more likely to receive the government money Lm came 6 Reunbursements trom the MRC Jardins de Napier ville may also vary trom the budgeted amounts as some ot the watercourses within the mauepaliny don\u2019t sll under the MRC = Junsdiction Share of the MRC I'he total pand to the MRC mn 1988 as estimated a 327.4000 lo cover the township's share ol regional government administration, garbage led restaurant -

being used to balance the 1488 budget.When the people attending the meeting were asked for final comments, Fitzsimon threw down his copy of the budget and told the mayor he believed the 309, tax

league presidents and of those who made up à team to play in the tournament.These were the ones who understood that the tournament was for the benefit of one and all who use the arena.Finally.organizers were most grateful to the general public who attended the event to encourage the teams and the Tournament Committee.It cost $165 for each team to take part in the tournament.If one figures that there are about 11 players per team.this meant a cost of $15 to each player.with the guarantee of playing at least two games that meant only $7.50 per game.It was therefore interesting for all those who love to play hockey.even if at the end of the tournament.no prize money was awarded.Trophies to be defended each year were presented to the winners in each class, with copy of a smaller trophy to remain with the team.Very happy with the results of this first try.the Tournament Committee plans to repeat the experience next vear.with more teams taking

figures showing that illiteracy in Canada costs the country some 14 billion dollars a year.\u2018This awesome amount breaks down into many factors, including lost time on the job because an illiterate worker will find it harder to understand written instructions.more breakage of equipment because here again the person who can\u2019t read cannot rely on operation manuals.The illiterate also seem to miss work more often because of sickness.Firmers who can't read the instructions for chemical fertilizers or pesticides are apt to damage their crops.Aud the list could go on and on about the consequences of illiteracy on the gross national product.That illiteracy is costly to a country has long been suspected, but this 1s the first time that precise figures are brought into the picture.Some 4.5 million Canadians are estimated to be functionally literate.In Canada.technology and demands of the workplace are such that adults with less than ninth grade education are considered to be functionally illiterate.Contrary to popular belief.the illiterate are not found mostly among Hnmigrants but 70% of them were born in Canada.Also 70% of them five in cities.40% are under the age of 45.A staggering 30% of all teenagers still drop out of high school today.so the problem of adult functional illiteracy will be with us for a long time.liliteracy.besides costing so much in dollars and cents also deprives millions of Canadians of full opportunities in the workplace and in the brouder community.In terms of human resources and enjoyment of life.the waste is shameful.Programming to combat illiteracy has been a fragmented effort in Canada.in both government and nongovernmental groups.with relatively small funds and little stability or co-ordination, [Literacy programming for English-speaking communities in the Province has been delivered primarily through the Adult Education Services of the Protestant and Catholic School Boards.The Quebec Literacy Working Group.composed of representatives from all English Boards.coordinates its efforts under the direction of the Provincial Animator.Ann M.Gauvin.who can be reached at 416-688-8733.Nearer to us, the Chateauguay Valley Literacy Council.mentioned in an editorial in September 1986.offers workshops to train tutors who go on to teach the illiterate how to read and write, on an individual basis.The resource person to call here is Diane Hayvren, 827-2797 or contact Adult Education at 829-3272.Now that governments are being told how much illiteracy really costs to the country.perhaps there will finally be vigorous action taken to remedy the situation.With the means of mass media at their disposal today.there's no reason why governments can\u2019t wipe out illiteracy in this country within a few vears 100 years ago (From the Canadian Gleaner of Thursday, Feb.16, 1888) NEVER SLEEP WITH MOUTH OPEN Never go to bed with cold or damp feet.Never lean with the back upon anything that is cold.Never begin a journey until the breakfast has been eaten.Never take warm drinks and then immediately go out into the coid.Never omit regular bathing for unless the skin is in active condition the cold will close the pores and favor congestion and other diseases.After exercise of any kind never ride in an open carriage or near the window of a car for a moment: it is dangerous to health or even life.When hoarse speak as little as possible until the hoarseness 1s recovered from, else the voice may be permanently lost or difficulties of the throat be produced.When going from a warm at mosphere into a cooler one keep the mouth closed so that the air mav be warmed in its passage through the nose ere it reaches the lungs.Never stand still in cold weather.especially after having taken a slight degree of exercise, and always avoid standing on ice or snow, or where the person is exposed to the cold wind.In sleeping in a cold room.establish a habit of breathing through the nose.and never withthe mouth open.50 years

of winter.when people are huddling in their warmest clothes, the woollen mill ts busy preparing for the Easter Parade.Those engaged in the weaving of cloth must always be about six months uhead of the season.They must anticipate the needs of the world and fill the demand before the demand is made.In the local plant there are 16 plain looms which produce plain or striped cloth, and 16 box looms which turn out checks and square patterns.The looms are kept running 20 hours a dav in two shifts.Each one can turn out about 60 yards of cloth in one dav.The Huntingdon mill is small.but work is carried on so systematically that last month enough cloth was turned out to make 14,000 suits of clothes.When running full speed the mill can weave more than 40.000 yards of men's suiting material a month.GLEANER PHOTO Photographs taken at the Gala Celebration at Vallevfield Arena on January 16 by Nelson White, Gleaner staff photographer.received wide publicity in American newspapers recently.On

debated in the present situation.The question is first and foremost to approve or reject the proposed by-law no.444 adopted by the Town council on January 11.1988.This proposed by-law would be to establish a commercial zone +C-21-15 within an existing residential zone (H-21) tor the purpose of allowing commercial constructions of class C-2 use.To put it briefly.to approve or not that the Town council change part of à residential area into a commercial area - to accept in other words that the council create a precedent which threatens to eventually affect all the residential districts in town.The town council.it will be recalled.last vear approved an Urbanism Plan which set aside on its territory areas for residential purposes, and other areas for commercial purposes.These latter areas Don't miss chance to meet could very well serve for undertakings such as the one mentioned (howling alley + in the article Now are we led to believe that this Ur- banism Plan is already obsolete\u201d That the decisions taken at the time are not valid any more\u201d That residents are subject to see their residential area become commercial any time\u201d Here is the question to be debated - the interrogations and changes likely to be brought about by by-law 444.To the question for or against\u201d should be added that of \u201cwhere\u201d.And the answer to that is very simple: in a commercial area already set aside for that purpose.as per the Urbanism Plan.Young and older people could benefit from this new recreational facility.and those hving in residential areas could continue enjoying the good quality of life they now have in Huntingdon.Georges Parent Minister John Wise Sitting here watching the opening of the Winter Olympic Games in Calgary.it came to mind that what an opportunity this is for Calgary to take advantage of and be recognized for its unique Western hospitality.its tourist industry and its Olympic calibre winter sports facilities.The comparison | would like to make here is that the Chateauguay Valley local farmers\u2019 Syndicate 1s also being faced with an opportunity to be recognized.\u201cRecognized for what\u201d vou may ask.Well, the Chateauguay Valley Syndicate of the UP.A.represents 550 English- speaking farm producers in the St-Jean- Vallevfield region.Our syndicate is the largest local syndicate in St-Jean Valleyfield.For the last two vears.we have had the best representation at the regional meetings.As a result.most of the resolutions we forwarded were accepted at the regional meeting.Al the annual meeting of the Chateauguay Valley Local Syndicate on February 23 will have the opportunity to talk to Jean-Guy Hudon, our MP.and Canada\u2019s most influential agricultural representative.John Wise, Minister of Agriculture of Canada The two guest speakers will give an update on the Canada-US.Free Trade Agreement.and also answer questions on other subjects affecting farmers in our syndicate.Let's take advantage of this situation, and come out to talk with Mr Wise and Mr Hudon Who knows\u201d Maybe some of the questions and or reflections that we make will have an impact on the agricultural

tutelage of Dr.Claude Binard, from Paris.The word homeopathy talso spelled homoeopathy! is derived from Greek words homolos (similar) and pathos (\"suffering\").The homeopathic practitioner treats sick people using minute.non-toxic doses of plant, mineral or animal substances.The specific medicines are chosen based upon the \u2018law of similars.\u201d that is.a substance which creates a specific set of symptoms in a healthy person when given in toxic dose will cure these similar symptoms in a sick person when given in specially prepared minute doses.Since symptoms are the body's efforts to deal with stress and to defend and heal itself.the homeopathic medicines work with rather than against, the person's overall defense system and provide a gentle but powerful healing stimulus.Homeopathy became very popular in 19th century American and Europe because of its astounding success during the epidemics that raged during that time.By 1900 as many as 20-25% of physicians in urban America were homeopaths.and there were 22 homeopathic medical schools and over 100 homeopathic hospitals.Although the homeopathic movement is relatively small in the U.S.virtually every country in the world has its group of homeopaths.Its practice is largest in India.Great Britain.France.Germany.Greece.Brazil.Argentina.Mexico and Russia.Homeopathy is a 2ist century science since it

course to leam their duties, were kept busy all weekend.They reported that it was quite an experience.Since there was a short-age of officials our three men did more than was originally expected of them.During the first games they were hog-line umpires and they were required to sit in one spot during the game of 10 ends and watch every move the players made Not being able to move around meant that they were quite numb with cold by the end of each game.Then they would have to start all over again.During the finals they were promoted to the on-ice officials.Lue.Don and Ken are to be commended for representing our Hun- tingdon Club in such an important event and they deserve a lot of credit for their outstanding work.Little Green Library I'he Huntingdon Town Council, at ts regular
