The raising of the subject of hos-

a lively dieuseion, which resulted in
the adoption of the following motion:

At its January iesslnn the council
adopted a motion requiring rnunicipail
tlet to pay one half of Indigent pa-
tients' hill, when the indigent comes
from that munlelpallty, the county to
pay the other halt. This has now been
interpreted by some reeves to mean
that their respective mnnlcipalities
should pay only "Inch hills As hare been
