Their decision followed a re- commendation by J, S, McLaren, an adviser on police services with the Ontario Police Com- mission, who was in town last week to review the local de- partment. Councillor Ted Wright, chair- man of the police committee, indicated that McLaren had given the department a "very, very good" report. "He was very pleased with our setup," Wright indicated, adding that McLaren had stated that his job would be most pleasant if all his work was as easy as that of re- viewing the local situation. McLaren commended the work of Cpl. Harry VanBergen, Acting Chief, and also said council should be complimented on the fair treatment they have given Chief C. H. MacKenzie during his lengthy illness. McLaren gave his report to the committee after interviewing several councillors and the police staff.

Judging from all reports, the dance last Friday night went very well, The crowd was very good and the "London Set" were in top form. On December 13 at 8;00 pm a band concert will be presented at St. Marys District Collegiate. The bands which will compose the programme include the St. Marys Marching Band, the Stage Band, a Dance Band and a Dixie- land Band.
