But as our friend from Hay. was going across to the New Com- mercial sheds to get his horse it was noticed that he was still smoking away making about as much smoke as the C.N.R. engines coming up the railway track, and trying to keep face to face with all the ladies 'he met. ° Next Sunday is Motliers' Day in the United church.

Pres:, Mr. Owen Geiger; Pres., Mr. E. Drummond; Vice -Pres., Mr. J. Passmore; Sec'y, Mr. H. Scruton; Treas., Mr. I. McLaughlan; Manager Mr. L. Mickle; Coach, Dr. G. Knapp Mascot, Scott Welsh.

The meet- ing then adjourned.- COUNCIL djourned.-COUNCIL MEETING The regular monthly meeting of the village council was held in the council chamber on Tuesday even- ing. All nlembers were present with the Reeve in the chair.. The minutes of the last meeting were read and adopted on motion of Campbell and Higgins. Mrs. Bul- lard appeared before the council and asked for a rebate. of $8.72, that she paid on the Queen Street drain. _It seems that two years ago solne ofthe ratepayers oft Queen street .asked permission from the council to dig a drain on the north side of Queen street, the council 1 thetile and the ratepayers to su Y pp to do the work, Which was agreed to. Some of the ratepayers helped dig the drain 'themselves, . others paid in their share and Mrs. Bul- lard paid in $8.72 under protest, that the drain was doing her no good whatever, and that she could. not drain -into it, and has been threatening to take action against the. town •for dainages. Strictly speaking it was up to the ratepayers of Qtieen street to pay back this Money to Mrs.'- Bullard, but as it would open the whole • question again, it was decided that it would be better for the council to makd the rebate. Mr. Colin ,Hudson, the as- sessor of the village, returned, the ECTAL FRANCES NICKAW. A World Famous. Indian Elocutionist will give her Dramatic and I-lurnor- ons Readings, in ELIMVILLE CHURCH on Wednesday, May 12th at 8 o'clock p.m. Under the auspices of the Young People's League With not one dull moment, Miss Nickawa holds young and old entranced. Program interspersed with musical numbers 'The opportunity of a life time. ADDMISSION 350 Children 20c. assessment roll, which was accepted by the council and the. assessor or- dered to be paid.,It was moyed by Robt. Higgins, seconded by Chris. Campbell that a Court of Revision be held on Tuesday evening, May 25th, at eight o'clock, to hear any appeals against the assessment roll. Mr. Win. McLaren asked permis- sion to erect a gas pump in front of his store on Main St. Perris- sion was granted, the work to be done under the supervision of Camp- bell and Higgins. The council de- cided to make a tour of the streets on Thursday afternoon to see what was needed to be done for the sum- mer months. A communication was read from the clerk of Colborne Tp. asking the council to petition the, Government to raise the gasoline tax for highway purposes to six cents a gallon, instead of three and to low- er the licence. fee 30 per cent. Some one seems to•be boosting this move- ment through. the province, but the council decided to take no action. The total assessment for the village for 1926 is $419,683. The popula- tion 786 or 17 less than last year, and there are 28 dogs in the village. Before the meeting closed Mr. Hig- gins brought up the matter for bet- ter fire protection for the village, claiming that a village like Hensall with over half' a million dollars of valuable property was at the mercy of every fire, and especially on the back streets where there is no water. In case of a fire here, there is no way :of protecting the village, the owner loses the building and the chances are it would not be rebuilt, and the town also loses its revenue in the way of taxation. The village of Hensall ..has made itself respon- sible, 'for a large sum of money which it has Spent in the way of public improvements, and every- thing should be done to protect the property of the village, as every building that is burnt down and not rebuilt, just makes the burden that much higher on the rest of the vil- lage. Mr. Higgins was in . favor of a chemical engine, as the most econ- omical way of protecting the village and moved, seconded by Robt Mc- Arthur that a committe be appoint- ed, composed of Reeve Geiger, Councillor. Priest and Clerk Murdock to take up the ,matter and report to the council at its first meeting in June. It is claimed` that a suitable engine can be purchased and the money borrowed and spread over a term of five years, and it would never be noticed in our tax rate, and it would make our village reason- ably safe from large fires. A num- ber of accounts were presented and• ordered paid. The meeting finally adjourned to meet again on the ev- ening of May 25th as the Court of Revision.
