After the houses frightening deficit.- were built he estimated the taxes would be $250, and there was only about $300 difference in the cost of the two pipe sizes, so the extra would be re- coverable in one year. He was very much in favour of the larger pipe, since it would mean lower insurance rates because of increased fire protection. Coun. Gliddon stated that if they were assured of more houses then the large line would be necessary, for only two,the smaller pipe would be sufficient. Reeve Nediger: We should plan for future building. I am quite satisfied that we should put in a four -.inch -line ,under the roads. Mayor Agnew stated that dis- cuseion of site should have to do only with that part under the highway, since for the bal- ance, Deseck would have to pay the entire cost. • Deseck agreed that under the Act, the larger proportion of the expense would be paid by him. He reminded councillors of the extra revenue brought to the town by reason of the employe ment it would provide to many persons, Clerk L. D. Holland tried to explain that the line under the highway would have to be paid for by the municipality in any case, Considerable free discussion took place between councillors and councillors, Deseck and court. cillors, Deseck and the mayor, the mayor and the councillors, and the clerk, mayor and coun- cillors, wife as many as four different conversations being carried on at once. Finally in discouragement the Mayor found no progress being made, and suggested that the matter be laid over for further discussion. Deseck objected Strenuously, interrupting the mayor and saying, "I object to any laying over. I've been wait- ing for a month and a half now." Mayor Agnew: It doesn't mat- ter what you think.

Shipton, who has had one hand amputated, by reason of a factory accident, apparently made a practice of leaving his artificial limb in the car while he made his sale, and his sales talk included, the sug- gestion that he was selling mag- azines to gain points, which would entitle him to an artificial limb, which was arriving by ex- press "that night".

Stating that he felt that Ship- ton was only a tool, and that the law was really after the man behind him, the magistrate told Shipton that he was lazy, shiftless, and allowed others to take advantage of him and use him because of his disability.
