'^ NO ELECTION (Continued from page, 1) continue., :He said the Knitting fac- tory was making. a small addition and in a few years. might expand, greatly.. He was not pleased with the work done on the streets' this year. He thought some permanent work should be done each year and he did not fa- vor the calcium chloride treatment Mr. Elliott had spoken of. Mr. Elliott, when he sat down, ask= ed permission,to speak again and on receiving it said he was speaking from the experience of the County Engineer who should know something about it, when he claimed that cal- cium chloride was not only a dust - layer but a road -binder. Everyone was somewhat surprised when Mr. Paisley came forward in answer to his name, as he usually slips out when speech -making starts. But he gave a concise report of the work done on the streets this year with a detailed list of the costs. He thanked the voters for the support given hien last year and said if re- turned for the coming year would do his best to serve them well. Mr. Walker thanked his mover and seconder but said he had about made up his mind to drop out. He had been head of the property committee this year and he thought some im- provement might be made in the heating system in the hall. At pre- sent two furnaces and four stoves were on the go, one of the furnaces not all the time, but he thought a cheaper and more satisfactory sys- tem might be adopted. None of the other nominees re- sponded when called and the chair- man said that as Mr. Murdoch, who has served as councillor for the past two years, was present he would like to hear from him if the meeting was agreable. It was, and Mr. Mrudoch spoke briefly. He thanked the rate- payers for their support the past two years. He said he had done what he could as head of the ceme- tery committee to improve that bit of property and would have done more but for the fact that his com- mittee was short of funds and the council did not see its way to allow it any more. He warmly commended m •'the for de t superintendent n the cemetery P fine way the cemetery was kept. It was a credit to the town. Represen- tatives from other towns had visited the cemetery to get pointers in man- aging it, one man having come on four different occasions in his de- sire to learn all he could about its management. Mr, W. E. Perdue of the Hydro Commission, was • also called upon. He spoke very briefly. He said he was pleased to see Mayor Holmes re- turned, as the Commission had need of experienced men. Mr. Churchill will also, as he made o good commis- sioner. Hydro matters were i n good shape, he said and a $55,000 de- benture will soon be paid off. The contract with the provincial commis- sion will soon be out and the renewal will have to be considered. The gathering broke up by the hearty singing of the National An- them. Miss M. G.

Parsons of Seaforth spent the Christmas week - PORTER'S HILL On Tuesday evening the pupils •of S. S. No. 5 entertained their parents and ratepayers of the Section to a splendid program of recitations, drills, choruses, dialogues and an old time square dance. This number was exceptionally well received as the boys and girls were dressed in cos- tumes of 50 years ago, wide spirts, leg -o -mutton sleeves, high collars, right up to their ears and oh, when that 15 -yard skirt got swinging it was difficult for the poor partner to keep from getting buried under the billows. Another splendid number was the Highland Fling 'in Scotch Kilties by Beth Hayden. Then we must not forget the dialogue by Iva- son Torrance and Billie Harris, "A Cure for Rheumatism," this brought peels of laughter and if any one de- sires the cure just consult either of these boys. A splendid drill of 10 hoboes with their bundle of worldly possessions tied up in a red bandana and .carried over their shoulder on the end of a stick was also good. When the program drew to a close Santa arrived and there were presents from a well -ladened tree, also candies and nuts for the children and they in turn cid not forget their teacher, Miss Elva Elliott, whom they presented with a lovely flower vase. Miss El- liott certainly 'deserves credit for the time and patience spent in training those children. Mrs. Fred Pickard acted as organist and Les Cox chair- man. A silver collection was taken. Then and Wednesday evening an en- joyable program was put on under the direction of the Sunday School. The program though not so long was well presented. There were lantern slides, choruses by the school, dial- ogues, music by the kitchen orches- tra, a Christmas reading was given by Fred Elliott and a very thoughtful address by Rev. 11. M. Gale. ' Wilmer Harrison acted as chairman. Santa was also present at this gathering and candies, nuts and presents were handed out. • Mrs. Verna Harris, assisted by Isobel Woods, lead charge of the mu- sic.
