CHARLES MacDONALD Mrs. Hugh Alexander received word this week of the passing of Mrs, Charles (Nan) MacDonald, at Trenton, on Thursday of last week. Mrs. MacDonald taught school at S.S. No. 12 McKillop, for six years. During that period the interior of the sch000l was com- pletely renovated. Fir TOM LEIPER Reeve of Hullett Ratepayers Must .(Continued from Page 13) is necessary to rebuild some of the smaller inefficient galvanized lines which this season have been the direct cause of 28 leaks, which prove quite costly," Mr. Kling said, and added that we are hop- ing that this revision will epable us to improve our water distribu- tion system and give some of the outlying consumers more effici- ent service. We are also hoping that more hydrants will be added. During the year 850 feet of wa- ter main was laid; the water tank was painted, and several new ser- vices were added. Dr. P. L. Brady, who served as chairman of the finance commit- tee, told the meeting that he ex- pected there would be a surplus of perhaps $6,000 on the year's op- erations. This had arisen because the budget had provided for road expenditures in. connection with the sewer program which had not yet been carried out. While there was a lot to be desired as far as collection of arrears was concern- ed, progress had been made: Ar- rears at December 31, 1959, which had been $57,268, were down to $32,974 at October 31. Debentures outstanding repres- ented 21.6 per cent of assessment, which was below the limit permit- ted by the Ontario Municipal Board. Councillor N. C. Cardno, refer- ring to the fire brigade, said it was doing an excellent job. The industrial committee, of which he is chairman,. had looked up a number of leads. Mr. Cardno ask- ed ratepayers to assist and to re- port any leads to the committee, so they could be followed. See Sewer Start While the OWRC had assured council tenders on the sewer dis- tribution addition would be called November 1, no action as yet had been taken, Dr. J. 0. Turnbull, sewer .committee head, told the meeting. It was ' expected, how- ever, a start would be made early in the year, since the project- had been approved for winter work. Dr. Turnbull referred to two short additions that it had been necessary to make during the year, and warned against the danger in extending the system on the basis of expediency. "That way we can only end up with a hodge-podge. We must struggle to the end that we have an over-all system in the town," he said, and added that plans now existed for such a system. Councillor T. Rivers, chairman of the street committee, reviewed the work which had been done, and Councillor John Flannery, chairman of the, parks committee, told of that committee's work, Councillor Neil C. Bell, who was named to council three months ago to fill the vacancy which re- sulted after Mayor Christie's death, said the new building permitsys- tem was working well, and that the public was co-operating. D'Orlean Sills,a member of the PUC, discussed progress of the power loop program and said changes, were coritemplated on South Main Street to minimize damage from ice. • More Library Members Carnegie Library membership has increased by 250 to 825, Miss M. Turnbull, board chairman, said. She invited the public to inspect the library and take advantage of its facilities, The town representative on the SDHS Board, J. A. Cardno, said work on the addition was well ad- vanced. The staff includes 17 teachers, and there are more than 400 pupils. There is a particularly efficient staff at the Public School, board chairman .Mrs. J. A. Cardno told the meeting. The board encourag- ed outside interests and in this found the staff most co-operative. Pupils of Mrs. R. J. $oussey had won competitions at the Western Fair. The staff was 'co-operating with the Home and School in pre- paring a float for the Santa Claus parade.
