by saying the Town had no choice in the matter of the new evaluation roll.\u201cIt is provincial law and we must abide by it,\u201d said the mayor.He added that the work had begun more than a year ago with the compiling of information on all property in Huntingdon and only now had it reached the stage where assessors must visit each property.The approaching assessments, must be completed and deposited with the government by Nov.15 and they will form the basis of tax bills to be mailed out early in 1979.Also, he said, in the fall, when assessment has been completed, another town meeting will be called at which rate payers will have a chance to raise any objections.The cost of the new evaluation roll to the Town will be some $55,700 with Quebec picking up a minimum of 40 per cent and possibly a maximum of 50 per cent of this, depending on the Town's ability to pay.Derome said his assessors will begin to make their calls within the next two weeks seeking information to add to their graphic plan based on deeds and cadastral information already compiled.The law says they may call on property owners at any time between 9 a.m.and 9 p.m.See MEETING Page 2 Academy.this week.7 Seniors Home gefsnew name Foyer Joie de Vive is to be the new name by which Huntingdon's low cost residence for senior citizens on Fairview Road is to be known.It is the contest-winning suggestion of student Kenneth Russell of Huntingdon In English it is: Love Life Home.Notary Claude Menard, chairman of the name selection committee first suggested by then-Historical Society President Robert McGee, made public the name for the home \u201cWe hope to recognize young Russell's effort and do something official about the home name very shortly,\u201d said Menard.He said some 30 suggestions were provided the committee from students of Huntingdon schools and the final selection was made last Thursday night.The selection committee included Mrs.Anne Cameron, Mrs.Evelyna Leblanc, Georges Boucher and McGee.~N _7 tightening up during what he considered a \u2018lean year\u201d caused by inflationary pressures and the fact that no major projects had been undertaken since completion of the water filtration plant.At the same time there could be no doubt the Town is suffering the same inflationary pressures common to every household.This was borne out Financial Statement, 1978 GEORGES BOULANGER Socred enters fight Espousing a platform of job creation, George Boulanger who is a former director of Huntingdon\u2019s Welfare Office, last Thursday received the nomination of the Créditiste party as candidate for Beauharnois-Salaberry riding in the May 22 federal election.At his nomination meeting in Grande Ile he described the employment picture in the riding as \u2018disastrous and at a press conference quoted a figure of 22 per cent for unemployment.The former mayor ot Grande Ile who now works in the Chateauguay Social Welfare Office particularly See SOCRED Page 3 from 1977, by an increase of $87,971 for the year 1978 in the cost of Town financing.It reflected the ever-increasing cost of money and the raising therof.The statement showed 1978 expenditures at $1,199,070, up $60,969 against revenues of $1,200,150 which compared with revenues of $1,109, 294 in 1977.Under revenues from local sources were listed brackets): Under expenditures: # Laniel nominated Taxes -

attention that it is felt that the program for teaching French as a second language were not adequate or progressive enough in the schools of the Protestant Regional School Board of Chateauguay Valley I would like to state, firstly, that it is not solely the responsibility of the school to provide the total learning and the practice of a second language.The parents and the students themselves are in a position to create favourable conditions to complement the programme, cither at home, when playing sports, or on a trip.The parents are cahable of doing snuch to encourage the actual use and practice of the Fre h linguage.Concretely, encouragement can 0 carried out in many different ways, for example turn the T.V.to a French channel at times when the child can watch it; encourage friendships through the practice of sports with francophones ot the same age.provide opportunities for reading practice in French as soon as your child can do it: facilitate access to the immersion classes for your child and support their conscientious efforts.However, for the information of those who are interested, I should like to say that we are offering to our students, not only the compulsory programs of the Ministry of Education, Quebec.but are beyond this step and among the forerunners who are actively participating in this field.To illustrate this, below is a summary of the programs that we are now offering our students.in both the elementary and the secondary levels, in an effort to improve the understanding and the use of the language of the majority in this province: Elementary Schools Beginning with Kkin- dergarten, all students have a daily period of French for a minimum of 15 minutes.From levels one to six, this daily period is extended to a minimum of 30 minutes duration.In addition to this regular program.we have some classes of total French Immersion from levels 2 to 4, as well as some groups of semi-Immersion (50%) at levels 5 and 6 (Chateauguay only) Two years ago we began offering a very special program for the second cycle of the elementary schools.In these levels, the teaching of French is taught to students in smaller groups than the size of the regular class grouping.Each regular class, with the exception of 2 or 3, is divided into two groups, with a teacher of French for each group of 12 to 15 students.By doing so, students are receiving more individualized attention and have many more opportunities to practice the French language.At the end of the elementary schooling, a supplementary year of total French Immersion is offered for those young students who want to reach a higher degree of comprehension of the French language before entering the high school.Through this supplementary year, called \u2018\u20186-Plus\u2019\u2019, students are \u2018living their school curriculum in French\u2019 and are introduced in a verv concrete way to the \u2018\u2018franco-Québécoise\u2019\u2019 culture.The teaching methods generally used are audiovisual and include Aux Yeux des Petits Bonjour Line Ici On Parle Français which have been proven here and in other school systems.These are recognized ,as verv ef- ticient methods Our French .cound language specialists, most of them being native French-Canadians, are all qualified teachers and recognized as such by the Ministry of Education, Quebec.In addition, at the second cycle of the elementary, we prefer experiences (and even create them frequently) that place our students in situations where they live with francophone companions of the same age and where they are forced to use the language and common expressions of their companions.These cultural and linguistic exchanges not only help to improve vocabulary, but they also teach our students when and how to use certain expressions.Also, in practice this shows students that the problem of language is not an obstacle to friendship and mutual understanding between anglophone and francophone students.Secondary Schools At the secondary level, the daily period of French is of approximately 45 minutes duration.The teaching personnel, duly qualified, generally use the audio-visual method L.F.1.at the secondary levels I.II, III, and use the À Travers le Québec curriculum for level IV.and the specific programme of the Ministry of Education in Secondary V classes.In addition to this regular program, we offer post- immersion courses at levels T and 11 for those students arriving from elementary immersion programs.These groups, depending on the staff availability and the number of students registered at each level, can be offered subjects in French for approximately 30% to 40% of their total time.À Liaison Committee has been recently formed, the aim of which is to facilitiate relations and coordination between both the elementary and secondary schools.Both the elementary and secondary sectors have representatives on this team.We believe that the teachers, at those levels, will be better informed of the current ongoing programs at each level and thereby will be in a better position to adapt their teaching to the different levels of the students.Anglophone students at all levels, who did not go through immersion programs but have an above average knowledge of French, are offered the Enriched Program which is more or less an ac celeration in the learning process enriched by the addition of advanced literature and socio linguistic cultural topics.We also have.in ou Secondary Schools students who are fluent :n both of the official languages, French and English.As those students are usually less capable in written French.their program is oriented in the direction to emphusize grammar than towards oral communication.For all secondary levels, we encourage socio-cultural and linguistic exchanges, as it is our aim to give our students the opportunity to practice and use, in their daily life, the language which could be the language of work.Some of the students ai the Secondary V level are more advanced in their French than in the other subjects.These students have the alternative of opting for a supplementary course of French which emphasizes business terminology.This course called \u2018Business French 522\" also has a high school leaving value of two credits.In conclusion, 1 would like to add that the considerable amount of time allowed for French as a second language.and the support program included, is beginning to show positive results, based on the scores of the tests which are administered regularly.In the very near future, we feel that our students, at the end of their secondary schooling, will be able to understand French and express themselves in a very acceptable manner as far as vocabulary and current expressions are concerned.Parents or groups ot parents who would like to have more information on this topic are invited to contact me at the Board Office at their convenience.Jean-Guy

last Wednesday, more than 130 people enjoyed an enlightening hour or more listening to local notary Claude Menard.After a general discussion in which he explained various forms of legal wills and their pros and cons, and detailed the new estate tax laws and exemptions, he answered questions from the floor.It was obvious that proper handling of one\u2019s affairs while still in good health and sound mind concerns most people on hand.We were grateful to our guest for the time which he gave to us out of his busy day and we hope that members found it informative and helpful.If so, we hope to offer you other afternoons like this from time to time on subjects of concern and led by people experienced in their fields.We would appreciate your suggestions and insights into areas which most affect the older generation and where information would help them cope more effectively with the present-day problems.At last here is definite information about our spring trip: Two buses have been hired to take you to the Chateau Montebello on Monday, May 28, leaving the Legion Hall at 9 a.m.and returning to Huntingdon no later than 6 p.m.While at the Chateau you will have the opportunity of walking the lovely grounds and enjoying the spring flowers, of walking to Montebello and doing a little shopping or browsing through the shops in the Chateau itself.At noon you will enjoy a four-course luncheon in the hotel dining room after which you may take a tour of the historical Papineau House - a three-minute walk from the hotel.If you like you may take a dip in the heated indoor swimming pool or simply enjoy a lazy afternoon in the main lounge around the enormous stone fireplaces which are the focal points , of hotel life.The cost to members exclusive of tips will be $9.and

for the Easter Bonnet competition.They were members who proudly wore their creations throughout the afternoon.Later on, two enormous pink Easter Bunnies made their appearance complete with fluffy tails and giant carrots.According to Vera, \u201cthey were very much loved\u201d and added a lot of laughter to the day.It must have been difficult for the judges to pick the winners in the three categories of hats as Vera noted that they were exceptionally well made and most of them very original.She said that it was obvious that a great deal of time and effort had been put into making them which augers well for future competitions of this kind.Judges were Wallace Rennie, Noella Laberge, Jean Brown, Larry Small and Debbie Rennie.In the Most Humerous Hat category they chose Jean Brannon, Evelyn Maither, Art Goodfellow and Bob Brannon as winners.Winners in the Most Original Hat category were Buff Wilson (whose hat was worn by Alice Vine, Blanche Halloway, Bill McPherson and Bob Cottingham.The Most Beautiful Hat winners were Elsie Darby, Marjorie Minchinton, Leo Beaudin and James Manning.Winners and losers alike deserve our applause for a wonderful effort and our thanks for making the afternoon so much fun for everyone.A special word of appreciation must also go to the judges.The bunnies Dooling and Hazel Leamon) were assisted during the presentation of prizes and easter goodies by Thelma Buddo.She and Alice Vine sang while Marjorie Minchinton played appropriate music.(Vera In keeping with the Easter theme, members of Unit 8 of the United Church Women served hot cross buns and cheeses to the members during tea.We hope they enjoyed the festivities as much as we enjoyed having them with us.Birthday people feted during the afternoon were Alice English, Albina Galipeau, Alexa Leslie, Hattie Shearer, and Edith Thompson.Congratulations to all of you.Wilbur and Florence Arthur received warmest best wishes on the occasion of their 61st Wedding Anniversary.The day at Fairview Shopping Centre was great fun and most of us managed to do plenty of browsing and shopping.This too might become an annual event as there was much interest in going at this particular time of the year.Preservation of past calls involvement for personal by ROBERT McGEE For The Gleaner A recent meeting of the Chateauguay Valley Historical Society heard Claude Wallot speak on the old Beauharnois canal and describe its early history up to and including the remaining aspects of the original structures still to be seen in Valleyfield.This meeting underlined once again the role that our region has played in the history of the province and the country.It drove home the realization that social, economic and fnilitary events which played significant roles in the development of Canada occurred right here in the Chateauguay Valley.It is discouraging, however, to realize that very few of these events have been in any appropriate way marked for the local residents or the travelling public\u2019s information and education.For an area so historically rich, we can point to little outward evidence of our concern with preserving or even marking these milestones of Canada\u2019s development.The population of the Valley needs to have these events brought to its attention and the Society must take the necessary steps to do so.Otherwise we shall loose the chance to preserve what remains of these events and become a populace ignorant of our ancestors\u2019 accomplishments.Awareness needed There are many local citizens whose interest and imagination could be fired by a greater awareness of the Valley's historical heritage.Many of these could become keen and hardworking members of our organization.Even if they never join our Society, they should, nevertheless, be made aware of the area's historical fabric so as to better appreciate the efforts of those bent on conserving and preserving its vestiges.All the efforts of any organization will enjoy success to the degree that they respond to the needs of the community and can depend on the participation of its members.So, this is, in a effect, an invitation to Hemmingford Mrs.J.L'Espérance The Guides and Brownies are pleased with the response to their requests for all those odds and ends which we accumulate and rarely use but which will sell at their Flea Market to be held this Friday and Saturday.They still have room for more so have another search, fill another box or bag then phone for a pickup, 247-3453 or any other Leader.Then go to the sale on Friday and Saturday and buy something to fill your now empty drawers.(See ad).Music lovers are promised a treat at the Presbyterian Church on Sunday evening, (see ad).Come and meet an outstanding group of performers and enjoy their company afterwards at a social hour.HOWICK, QUE.HOWICK SEEDS LIMITED PURPOSE DESIGNED FORAGE MIXTURES ALFALFAS - CLOVERS - GRASSES CERTIFIED CEREAL GRAINS PIONEER SORGHUM SUDAN GRASS PIONEER

THE GLEANER \u2014 APRIL 25 1979 Meeting.from page 2 \u201c1 don't think anybody has a right to put a true market value on my house except me,\u201d he said.Self help In this connection Derome suggested that a \u201c property owner would help his own understanding of the assessor's problem if he looked over his own property carefully, took into consideration real estate market prices in the area and the state of the market.This would enable a fairly close personal judgment and might be helpful in bringing personal and assessor views into some measure of harmony.Or even form the basis for a complaint later on.Each home owner will have complete access to the file on his property.And, said Derome, so far as :\u2026 tenants are concerned, they, just like landlords, are compelled by law to give the assessors free entry on request.The assessors will carry an identity card, complete with photograph and papers empowering them by law to proceed with their job.The mayor, thanking Derome for his lucid explanations and replies to queries said he and Council were gratified at the large turnout which showed that property owners were interested in the conduct of their town.One point home owners should bear in mind: In Huntingdon many houses are buill on half lots or portions of lots and this is shown in the deeds which might differ from the cadastral sub-division plan of the town.To have such deeds handy for assessors would be a good thing.And to one lady who, toward the end of the meeting asked: \u2018\u2018What happens when the taxes get so high that nobody can pay them, who takes over?\u201d From several quarters in the hall came the answer: Rene Levesque.\u201d Ste.Agnes Mrs.V.Elder Mr.and Mrs.Dalton Willett of Maria, Gaspé, spent the past week with Mrs.Willett's
