The largest Branch is the City of London with Set retainer for solicitor Exeter council Monday night agreed to pay a retainer of $600 per annum to Exeter solicitor, P. L. Raymond. The local lawyer has been solicitor for the past seven years and during that time has been billing council for all transactions handled on their behalf, or for legal opinions given. He pointed out in a letter to council this week, that this method was not entirely satisfactory because on many occasions he neglected to charge council because some of the matters were of a minor nature — although they still took up his time. "He does a lot of work for nothing," Clerk Eric Carscadden opined, noting that if there was a retainer he would not feel as guilty about seeking advice on minor matters. Council accepted Raymond's suggestion with very little discussion. "It certainly doesn't sound out of the way for lawyer's fees," Councillor Helen Jermyn stated. The retainer fee will cover all aspects of the solicitor's work for the town with the exception of any legal suits or other unusual matters. $ 20,.49 followed by Windsor with $ 084 5,436,12 and Sarnia with $4,111.05, The Bible Society translates the Scriptures, publishes and distributes them in nearly all of the 1350 languages into which Scriptures appear. Over 100 million copies were distributed throughout the world in 1968. The increasing demands for Scriptures is forcing the Bible Society to cut down drastically in the time taken for translating and publishing. Electronic machines are being pressed into service and intensified training programmes embarked upon to meet the demands. Smaller selections of the Bible are published as soon as translation work is commenced! This will not only encourage the translators who will see immediate fruit for their labours, but will also provide the opportunity of checking on the style and readability of the translation while the work is in progress, The Bible Societies are constantly exploring ways and means of "I3ibling the World" in the shortest possible time. Following are the contributions from this district: Ailsa Craig $401.10; Brinsley, $74,50; 13rucefield, $109.95; Crediton, $231.00; Dashwood, $325.00; Exeter, $792.40; Fullerton, $317.25; Granton, $40.00; Greenway, $141.25; Hensall, $20.00; Hibbert, $320.15; Kippen, $95.50; Kirkton and Woodham, $45.00; Lucan, $334.00; Parkhill, $386.06; Varna and Goshen, $160.22; Zurich, $460.00.
