the Army, Navy Hut.Lennoxville at 8:00 p m B> BRI 1 E PORTER Record Reporter Robert Nichol.an increased revenue has to come from one place or another to help dissolve a large deficit of $115.877 the town incurred in i«n He stated that many are complaining about the new $100service tax.while in fact, the increase is only $75 for this year Lennoxville, he claims, has been slow with tax in creases in the early seventies and that this year, everyone is feeling the crunch a little more than they normally would The new service tax basically comprises the old garbage and water taxes and is charged to each dwelling in the municipality.Public discontent was voiced by several older residents, most of whom are receiving old-age pensions They didn't understand why an increase in evaluation and the beginning of a new tax had to be done at the same time For them, the money is often thinly spread and having to pay out more in taxes seemed as if the town was picking on the fixed income residents Mr.Nichol said the only reason for the switch this year is that operating costs have increased over the past few years and taxes have not risen accordingly.He cited water tax at $30 has been constant for at least two decades, and the $15 garbage tax is also very low in comparison with other towns.He gave examples of Windsor Mills, where the garbage and water taxes are $62 per year, w ith the mill rate being 151l* Lennoxville’s presently stands at 7*2, a drop from 8 mills last year Windsor residents also have to pay eight per cent rental tax on top of that East Angus has a mill rate of 13 and only charge $34 service tax, and eight per cent rental.But they have close to $100,000 revenue from a tax levied on Domtar mill there, it was learned.Rock Forest charges five mills, but its service tax is around $135, $120 being for water and $15 for garbage Mr.Nichol says the $75 figure isn’t high in comparison to the 7,v mill rate and after much thought by council, it was decided the new service tax was justified and normal.Red Cross Campaign HONORARY PRESIDENT — In keeping with International Women’s Year, Pierrette O’Breadv, wife of Sherbrooke Mayor Jacques O’Bready.has accepted the position as honorary president of the 1875 Red Cross Fund-raising Campaign in Sherbrooke.Dates of the campaign are March 2 to 23.He said the former charge for services “just wasn't realistic ” He gave a working example to help Lennoxville residents figure out what their taxes wen* last year, and what this year’s will be on an average home of $18.000 in tow n Taxes paid on the evaluation last year at eight mills was $144, with water and garbage taxes ot $30 and $15 added onto that, for a total of $189 Following an approximate 20 per cent increase in evaluation of properties, the same property is worth now $21.500 At 7*2 nulls, the tax on evaluation is $161 25 The $75 service tax is added on to that for a total of $236 25.an increase of $47 25 over last year's taxes The projected revenues expected from the service tax this year is ItSOjOM op proximately $40,000 more than would lie collected by water and garbage taxes at the old rates By charging the property owner for the flat rate per dwelling, the town is also going to break even if not come up ahead on what used to be rental tax The landlord will just increase the rents to Ins tenants by a certain amount to offset the difference from last year But the town could save as much as $10,000 in lost revenue by the move.In the past, each tenant was mailed a rental tax bill during May, but with the high transient population in the municipality, very often the renter had moved out before the bill was paid Alderman Nichol said the renters will no longer receive the service free of charge like before, because their rent will cover the cost For these people, the town is going to get income from them who didn’t use to pay taxes but used to receive the services.Another reason the service tax was imposed this year is that the provincial government is basing the percentage of grants to be allowed to each municipality on the service tax charged With the old rate of $45 few if any grants could be expected, but the $100 service tax, which is supposed to come into effect next year would increase the chances of grants greatly.Mr.Nichol said he doesn’t expect the service tax to wipe out the deficit from ’73 and the possible ’74 red figures, but if the current budget can lx* kept very close to what it is now, the service tax may not be raised the extra $25 next year, allowing for its use only to bring the deficits in line with future budgets The town council has planned for a balanced budget for the current year, but whether that will hold true remains to be seen.The drafted budget is for $590,000.Expenditures have risen steeply in the past two years, which is another good reason to look for additional income before a possible deficit becomes too great.The in creases in administrative and public works since 1973 total almost $85,000.Mr.Nichol said there will still likely be beefs about the tax.but that it was never or could possibly be designed to satisfy everybody’s needs and resources.Hopefully this article has answered some questions residents have had about the new service tax and shed some light on the background of the situation.Any queries that haven't been solved by this can be answered at the town office Stanstead College By IVY HATC H This is carnival week at Stanstead College The Houses will be competing in the ice sculpturing on campus Thursday is Ski holiday

Demers, chief dietitian of the Montreal Catholic school commission, said prices were cut only on items that were not automatically popular Miss Demers' own board is the largest participant with 59 schools and now is working on a nutrition program to educate parents as well XriMtOYKD LAST SPUING Miss Demers helped devise the program, which evolved from a successful food subsidy system innovated by the Catholic commission in 1973 A year ago.the Island council asked the Catholic board, the island's largest, to submit a program which could be applied to all eight school boards Representatives stud-uni the proposal and voted funds last April.Six school boards adopted the program when schools opened in September Another joined in November and the eighth is expected to follow suit next fall.Junk foods banned include any food made mostly of sugar, such as candy, pastries rich in sugar and fat.biscuits or cookies with more sugar than dough, popsicles, carbo- cheuing gum.potato chips and deep fried foods.fish and chips and doughnuts Favorites such as ham burgers, hot dogs, pizza, smoked meat and submarine sandw iches are permitted, but only as alternatives and only two or three times in a six- week period CHtKOLATK ALLOWED Ice cream, milk chocolate and jello are allowed and many parents have called Miss Demers to question why The dietitian quoted the Order of Dentists research which she said proved that foods leaving particles in the teeth contribute most to tooth decay Therefore ice cream and chocolate, which melt quickly in the mouth, are allowed while peanuts are banned Children mourned the dis appearance of sugar laden foods at first, but after five months the majority in the schools seemed to have ac cepted it “Only the teachers are ask ing for soft drinks now ." said Miss Demers The principal of one school in the Protestant School Board noted more children have been given permission by their parents to go out to "junk food stores around the corner" for lunch, as a result of the program “Now what we need is a good, strong nutritional education program for parents,” said the principal The Catholic board is work ing on a program for parents

never hear of it till they come to iesba-den the Taj Mahal of Germany on the Neroberg in the Taunus Hills above the city.A German archduke, Adolf of Luxembourg, built it in memory of his beloved Duchess Elizabeth.niece of Czar Nicholas I of Russia.She married the duke in 1844 and died the following year, aged 19.The archduke commissioned the chapel right after her death and it took 10 years to build It is known locally as both the Russian Church and the Greek Chapel.A Wiesbaden architect carried out the plans of a Russian colleague to create the chapel in ancient Greek and Byzantine styles in the shape of a Greek cross The sarcophagus of white Italian marble is the work of a Munich sculptor and the figure of the beautiful princess reclines as if in sleep Her marble draperies are so realistic they look like fine linen.Above her head marble angels keep watch IN TE RI < >R EI ,A B< >K ATE The interior is decorated in blue and yellow Egyptian marble; the door pillars are Greek marble and local marble is used in other pillars.German artists did the elaborate screen and ceiling paintings and Rus sians painted the ikons on silver.Portrait medallions on one wall depict the artists and sculptors who worked on the chapel OUT OUR WAY The chapel’s golden domes gleam in the sun and through a door of red glass and iron filigree can be seen the Castle of Biedrich down by the Rhine where the duchess spent her brief married life and where she died Today the castle houses movie production companies and is surrounded by an English park where equestrian tournaments are held every Whitsuntide.The chapel is set in a woods and a curious way to reach it is by a cable car operated by water, in Rube Goldberg style."It costs 30 pfennings a ride and the city loses money on it, but the people around here won’t hear of it being replaced," said a local man.“It’s the oldest cable car in Germany and I guess it will be going for a long time yet.” The Neroberg surroundings of the chapel are a popular recre ational part of the city, laced with hiking and riding paths and equipped with a large swimming pool and tennis courts.A number of years ago a colony of Russians settled around Wiesbaden and about 200 of them remain.The memorial chapel is their place of worship Local residents say the broken-hearted archduke never married again But at the door of the chapel an attendant sells a leaflet that says the Duchess Elizabeth was the Grand Duke’s first consort by Neg Cochran : .e £0- a x MITER HE AI?)

I miss them more As I walk through life alone.When evening shadows are falling And I am sitting all alone In my heart there comes a longing "if we could all just be at home".There was a time when we were seven, But one by one, God called them to His heaven Grandma Rief was the first to go.Then Grandpa followed after.Dorothy was the next one called Oh what joy to life she gave! Yet, with all our love, we could not save God looked at Elgin and said, "Come with me" I miss seeing his smile and hearing his voice, But God gave me no other choice.Then with tearful eyes I watched my father go away.Although I loved him dearly, I could not make him stay.Two years ago today,God said to Mom, "Put your hand in Mine " The news I received that day broke my heart in two.They told me she had gone away Without a last good bye to me.Now my constant prayer shall be That God; with special care, will keep and guard my family while they sleep Loved forever ETHEL Ladies Aid meeting

improved driver on the local harness racing circuit, a strong contender would have to be young Simon Boucher Now 27 years old.Boucher has been campaigning in Montreal off and on since 1969 In his first three years here, he won a grand total of 13 races But since 1972.his racing fortunes have been on a steady rise and today Boucher rates as one of the leading drivers in Montreal Boucher’s rise to prominence during the past three years has been steady if unspectacular.In 1972, he won 30 races.In 1973, he raised this total to 48 And last year, he really started to roll He won a total of 73 races and his horses earned a highly respectable $209,325.But it now appears that Boucher is heading for even a better year in 1975.With less than two months gone in the new season, the native of the tiny community of St.Leonard DAston already has won 15 races and ranks only behind Adrien Bedard and Gilles Gendron for leading dash winning honors.A quiet, unassuming type of individual.Boucher goes about his work on the track without fanfare.But the results are starting to speak for him and are now reflected in his confident manner of driving.Boucher come by his interest in racing through family ties His father was a blacksmith and his cousin Andre and Uncle Arthur are involved in racing.Simon began his racing career at Trois Rivieres where he ranked as one of the top BAVARIAN DANCE in

Summer Olympics faces an executive meeting of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) in Lausanne, Switzerland, next week, it will be faced by some stiff questions For example, IOC questioners will want to know-why the Games, originally planned with an over-all, $310 million balanced budget through self-financing plans, suddenly loom as a $600-million-plus project faced with a deficit of more than $200 million.In addition, the questioners will want definite assurances that the main facilities—the stadium.Velodrome and village— will be completed on time for the July 17, 1976, opening ceremony.Until now IOC requests for a formal meeting, sparked by-reports of spiralling costs and construction problems, were forestalled while the committee faced a similar quiz from the Quebec national assembly’s standing committee on municipal affairs.And despite continued assurances from Montreal’s Mayor Jean Drapeau that the (iames will be self-financing, the Quebec government has accepted that a deficit of more than $200 million will result.While the City of Montreal is responsible for construction of the main stadium, swim hall and the Velodrome, it is the organizing committee that is responsible to the IOC for these projects.HARD ANSWERS “There’s no question Montreal (the organizing committee) is going to have to come up with some hard answers,” said Toronto lawyer James Worrall, elevated to the IOC executive board in Vienna last fall.“In the past it's been possible to come to these < IOC) meetings and file fairly general reports, but not this time,” he added.Worrall admits his appointment to the IOC board leaves him in an awkward position.“For me it will create a funny feeling—I'll lx* sitting on the other side of the table as a member of the IOC.”

BEACH, Fla.(CP) — Montreal Expos plan to move the team’s spring training camp from Daytona Beach to West Palm Beach in 1976, says John McIIale, president of the National League baseball team.But officials of Atlanta Braves already using the sprawling West Palm Beach area -objected Thursday to sharing it with the Expos Braves general manager Eddie Robinson told city officials the two teams would cause congestion and confusion.But McIIale and Robinson agreed to meet privately to try to reach an agreement before a March 17 deadline imposed by the city commission.McIIale told city officials that he would spend up to $250,000 for improvements in the area “We are willing to spend quite a bit of money to improve the site,” he said.“We feel that both clubs can reach a mutual understanding and train at what we consider one of the finest spring training facilities in the country.” He gave no reason why he wants to move his team from Daytona Beach, where it will train this spring schedule and if they retain their present pace they should finish on top of the heap They have three games in hand over Cornwall and in order to remain out in front they must chalk up all the victories they can to finish ahead Their next game in Cornwall is practically a must for them as the outcome will have a big bearing on the standings Coach Delage knows how important all games are,
