pub- lie school chairman win hew lett at the regular meeting of the board on thursday afternoon of last week it is certainly getting to be a problem to find caretakers for all our schools added board mem ber catherwood its coming back to the times when the teacher will take on the caretaking duties as they did many years ago continued the board chairman the discussion arose when some of the members felt that the old coal and wood furnaces should be replaced by oil heating systems in order that the work of heating the rooms would be made easier al though it was agreed that the oil heating systems would prove to be more expensive than coal it was the caretaking problem that was presenting the problem at the present time the members felt that they would consider the possibilities of supplying some of the schools with oil heaters and hold it over until a future meeting markham tp constable injured when car skids hits pole while the question of municipal assessment and taxation has

educational facilities for all etc in the first ol this short series of articles a brief resume will be given oi tne early stages of assess ment to show the progress made since that time tiwion primitive style in the early days of our known history chiet tains of tribes levied tribute or assessment against the members of their tribe by demand ing that they furnish a soldiers to fight against neighbouring tribes ob that they build fortifi cations waterworks roads etc c that they give up a portion of their crop cattle jewellery possessions etc to sustain either the chiletain or the army in the lield this practice is still being carried out in some of our eastern neighbouring countries and there is no appeal against these levies the next step was back in the middle ages when taxpayers were called upon to give labor in lieu of possessions this was generally in the form of building roads lighting in the army etc a parallel might be drawn to the american civil war- when those called for service in the northern army could escape such duty by paying recruits to take their place these recuits in some instances escaped actual warfare by deser tion and became known as bounty jumpers later in the middle ages the predominant churches the ro man catholic and the protestant anglican assumed municipal services mostly educational and welfare by levying on the socalled well to do ckl type government possibly our first well known form of government in upper canada ontario and municipal assessment and taxation to carry out the work of such government was created by the arrival of the united empire loyalists a few municipalities were created by special charter to carry out a form of municipal government and they established their own form of assessment and taxation gener ally speaking however the gov ernment kept control by appoint ing the district councils and the working officials in 1819 the act usually called the baldwin act after robert e baldwin but which rightfully should be called the baldwinla fontaine act was brought into being this was really the first damaged other than being stun ned and a few minor cuts and bruises the police constable was not seriously nun socialists and communists want to share everything equally except the power to rule municipal act which applied to all upper- canada ontario and in the act were tiie first assessment chapters the assessment section of tile act had many provisions which would create much indigna tion if they were in force today for instance a lield stone house no matter its size or condition was to be valued at a higher rale than a frame house with more area and in better condition clay loam land was to be valued higher than sandy loam land even though such land could not be worked until late in the spring or was baked in the summer months business assessment was levied on the stock on hand and the amount of trade and this gave opportunity for the dishonest assessor to warn and the dishonest merchant to be warned of the time to move goods from the present premises a personal assessment was also levied on the cattle and livestock of the farmer next weeks article will tell of the appointment of the
