Bylaw No. 5, 1925, for the raising of the sum of $4,000 by debenture for the extension of the Hydro System,. was read three times amid passed, Be- fore the third reading ex -Mayor B. J. Gibbings asked permission to speak. He thought the bylaw might be worded differently as, while the town was guaranteeing the bonds, it. was the, Hydro Commission which was providing, for the payment of both sinking fund and interest. The citizens generally were not being lev- ied upon for the money, it was 'being paid by users of Hydro. Clerk Mac- pherson pointed, out that the'commis- sion had no power to issue debentures and that in case • the commission failed to pay, the town was,' liable. Mr,, Gibbings said he hacT no wish to clash with the council' but 'that"he thought the bylaw might be so drawn as to make clear the fact that the de- bentures aro being paid by the .Hydro Commission.. ,Chairman Jenkins of the ,parks committee reported that he had gone into the matter of the building of a new grandstand at the park and had an estimate and specifications from Mr. G. T. Jenkins for the building of, a grandstand at the west side of the park, to' seat six hundred pegole for the sum of $575; • He thought prob- ably material might be'procured•from. the old grandstand for ,the erection of:0 ticket office at`the gate, but'; had not considered ethat ` sufficiently to make 0 recommendation, ' He moved the,,adoption of his report and was seconded by Councillor Retell. -After some little consideration of it the re- port was adopted.

Ramsay were susntnoned to the side of the,,strioken man, but medical skill was unavailing. His death "wee officiaiiy ascribed as cereb' al hemor- ehage. While' he had ' been in pour health throughout the winter, Mr. Vincent's sudden , death came as a grievous shock to his be'4eaved fam- ily and wide circle of friends. The deeeesed was ' well knew. throughout Western Ontario through itis active part in the development of the Clinton Knitting Mills, of which he. was managing: director, He was born in London, the sen of the lata George Vineent, of Talbot street.
