Henderson made an excellent proposition to the council when they appeared and made a suggestion that Diagonal Road and the Blaevale grav- el near town were in a very bad con. dition and proposed that if the town would grade them up as far as Mr, Gannett's hill and furnish material, the farmers in thet district had agreed to give their teams, 15 in all, to haul the material free of charge. All that the farmers want in return is that the municipality roll the road for them as far as Mr. P'roctor's or about 2a miles. This is certainly a step in the right direction and if only the farmers on other roads leading into Wingham would take a like interest in their roads it would be better for every one that uses them, whether with a buggy, wagon or automobile. The Iarge boulders and bog holes which znark many country roads, if levelled up and fixed, would make a wonderful differ- ence in the wear and tear of vehicles going over them, not counting the vast saving on the horses and harness. Chairman Tipling of the etreet corn. mittee said he had been figuring on the improvement of this road and had coma to theconclusian that a crusher would be needed to make the gravel in the gravel pit fine enough. He sug- gested having one taken into the pit and loaded from the crusher into the wagons. Moved by Binkley and Gurney that the request of Mr. Hen- derson be left in the hands of the street committee with power to act. - Carried. Work Will be commenced without delay. Moved by Oouns. Spotton and Bink - ley that since the 161st Battalion, Huron's Own, needs 150 men before the county has done its bit that has been asked of her, and knowing that the Ooonty Council, who are the cus- todians of the county's honor, will be asked to give its hearty support to aid the completion of same, that we unan, imonely and respectfully request of our reeve to do everything in hie power to influence that honourable body at the coming session to worthily assist our own battalion.-Oarried.
