The officer was relieved of his duties the pant year, whey an extra County Constable was appointed, At time of accident no compensation was Paid, and a doctor's certificate testified that Permanent injury to the leg rendered Mr, Lever unfit for general work, Mr. Weir closed by soliciting the support of all if an election were necessary. James Inglis Confined his remarks to a brief re- port re the County Home, which he said, is the second largest in Ontario and run more economically than any other. There are 98 inmates at pres- ent, Told of the modern laundry and other equipment installed. He also revealed that the County of Huron owns $170,000. in Victory Bonds, all paid for, $10,000 of which are held in trust for Huron College. E. H. Strong Stated he was definitely not in.the field for Reeveship this year. Com- mended County Council for its inter- est in Huron College.- Was critical of the Township grant of $1,000 to Wing- ham Hospital, after County Connell had voted $25,000 to this ;institution, The Wingham Hospital served only a small portion of Howick, whereas other nearby institutions, more patron- ized, had asked for no local support when improvement were necessary. He also wondered. why the Police Vil- lages — Gorrie and Fordwich — were not assessed for this grant. ' John Winter Thought he was lucky in receiving the deputyship by acclamation, as he had anticipated opposition. Under- stood some ratepayers who were policy-holders in the Howick Mutual felt they were taxed double for fire protection by reason of the special levy of 1/10 mill for this purpose. Explained, agreement with Wingham Fire Dept. to attend it all fires in Howick at a rate of $25,00 per hour from time of leaving Wingham until return. While the Howick Mutual, had a similar arrangement for its own policy-holders, the Company had not raised its rates, so there was no double taxation to them. Thanked all for the honor accorded him and would do his utmost to merit their confi- dence, Ed. McCallum Felt $1,000.00 was too much to have given Wingham Hospital and had not voted for same. Dealt with road work done in villages and township. Many culverts had been necessary. Harvey Gibson Didn't know whether he should thank his nominators or, not, as he definitely did not intend to 'stand for election. Thought if grader was used more, money would be saved and roads A.

Proceeded to give a brief but thoughtful review of world conditions, Two years ago the Allied nations were in a 'tough spot and, while everything was much better now, the job was not over yet, We must continue to do our part on the home front. Referring to the most recent Victory, Loan, he-said. Howick's total represented an average of over $99 for every man, woman and child in the municipality, Commend- ed achievments in war efforts, includ- ing blood donations, but said that in the latter we could do much more, There are almost 200 fibm Howick'in the Aimed Services, Thought it time the white race had learned to live peaceably, pointing out that'there are approkimately seven hundred million whites in the world as compared with nine hundred million of the colored races. The birthrate among the latter was much higher than the former, so that unless permanent peace was es- tablished among the whites, it was ap- parent the others would become the dominant race. Commended the new School Area system. Drainage had become a big item in Howick of late. Said the Council had possibly erred in not levying Wingham Hospital grant on Police Villages also, but stated he had no apologies to offer for favoring the grant. Stated his willingness to serve another term and, in the event of an election, urged everyone to get out and vote. E. H. Strong A former Councillor and Deputy- Reeve, Mr, Strong, condemned the all too apparent lack of interest 'in muni- cipal affairs, also in Provincial and Dominion matters: He was glad to see some of the Improvements he had advocated at nomination meeting a year ago had been carried out. The town- ship hall ceiling, however, ,had not been repaired. He asked support as Councilman should an election be held, School Area Plan Explained Before calling on the School Trus- tee nominees, the chairman asked In- spector J. M. Game, to explain the School Area plan; in part at least. Mi. Game first congratulated the Township in taking this forward step, which is a movement that is. sweeping the English-speaking, world. He explain- ed briefly some of the advantages possible under the plan, such as medi- cinal inspection and dental care, man- ual training and home economics, also transportation facilities for High and Continuation school pupils. There will be 247 school areas in Ontario at the end of 1944. No school area yet es- tablished had reverted to former iys- . tern, yet provision was made to do so if found impractical. He asked for patience until the plan was established And wAS sure it would eventually work out. to the 'Advantage of all. The opportunity was taken to have Mr, Game introduce his assistant, Mr, Alexander, Gilroy, who spoke briefly And impressed his audience as a most Able and 'pleasant personality. Each nominee for school trustee was allotted five minutes to express his views, but none came near that limit. WROXETER Recent guests of Mr. and Mrs. Geo.
