A mill rate of 25 .8 mills on farm and residential assessment and 28.6 mills on commer- cial assessment will be required by Vaughan Township School Area Board to meet its 1963 estimated budget, it was announced at the board’s May meeting. The farm and residential rate is up 2.4 mills from 1962 and up 2.6 mills. Trustee Ross J olliffe, chairman of the finance com- mittee, reported that the mill rate for school purposes had increased only tour-tenths of a mill from inception of the board to the present time. In 1960 the board received $27,500 from council by way of capital lot fees and some $50,000 net of surplus funds from school sections under the old system. These revenues were non-re- curring but provided a surplus to keep the mill rate constant. In 1962 the board operated on the commercial rate is a deficit budget of $14,100 again to hold the mill rate con- stant. Salary increments and de- benture carrying charges, items which the board is unable tc control will add approximately 1.5 mills, and necessary de- mands of plant maintenance and increasing costs of trans- portation and supplies will ac- count for almost another mill.

Mathematics, Eng- lish. reading comprehension, spelling and writing were test- ed. with an average in each subject being struck for the township and for individual schools. The result of the tests was not announced as the in- spector stated that these reâ€" sults were for the use of the staff to assess the work needed to be done in the rmnahfing weeks of the school yean in} order to concentrate on sub- jects and pupils where the most work was needed. Superintendent Gibson read‘ a letter from Basutoland, in} Africa, thanking Mr. Peter Kur-1 ita‘s class at the Richvale‘ schoolfor fis donafion of hbq rary books.

A total from township schools of $464.34 was contrib- uted to the Junior Red Cross campaign for “Needy Children at Home and Abroad." Concord School topped the list with a donation of $103.08, with Charles Howitt School in sec- ond place with $84.90.

Richmond Hill The motion to reconsider the matter was carried with Trustee Jolliffe requesting his negative vote he recorded. Although opposing the motion both Chairman Kaiser and Trustee Joliiffe promised full support of the board's decision. Trustee Ross Jolliffe stated he felt a matter of principle was involved, and that he had approached the matter with his eyes wide open. “We made a decision and now a pressure group makes a presentation and we change our minds.” Chairman Kaiser then stated that he was still in favour of improving the educational standards of the children of Vaughan, that he believed that in the near future a second language will be taught in our schools. “I feel." he said, “that it would be better to start Oral French in grade 1 so we wouldn‘t have so many failures in secondary schools." preponderance is presented, it merits sincere consideration." The board accepted the property committee’s re- commendation to provide drilled wells at Edgeley, Elder Mills and Patterson schools. Trustee Bailie, chairman of the committee, explained that the com- mittee felt that if these schools are to remain open even for a limited time they should have an adequate supply of water of the best quality avail- able. It was considered a good investment, for a good well will increase the value of the property in offering it for sale. He reported that drillers are already on the sites at Elders Mills and Edgeley. A motion was then intro- duced by Trustees Wells and Robertson that the implementation of Oral French at the grade 5 level in September, 1963, be postponed indefinitely. Trustee Jolliffe asked for a recorded vote and Trus- tees Wells, Robertson and Bailie voted in the affir- mative with Trustee Jol- liffe and Chairman Kaiser registering negative votes.
