COUNCIL IN SESSION DISCUSS
RELIEF PROBLEM.
WILL AID IN ANNUAL CHRISTMAS TREE
The regular meeting of council
was held in the council chambers on
Monday evening, Mayor W. S. R.
Holmes presiding. The following
members were present: Reeve Liver-
more, Councillors Walker, Nediger,
Paisley and Cook.
Following the reading of the min-
utes of the previous Meeting, com-
munications were read and discussed.
The first communication was from the
Clinton Bicycle and Motor Sales re-
questing permission to erect a rifle
range. Permission was granted with
the stipulation that the range is to be
trade perfectly safe.
The next request was from. Wil-
liam's Bakery asking for replacement
of plate glass window broken some
time ago by a stone said to have been
thrown by a passing car. On motion
of Messrs. Cook and Paisley the let-
ter was filed, Mr. Williams was
present at the meeting and requested
to knowwhy the letter should be
filed. A somewhat stormy debate fol-
lowed in which all members entered
freely. It was brought out that the
streets were in good shape and that
the claim was not on the town, but
on the motorist. Mr. Williams felt
that the claim was on the town, and
pointedout the menace to those walk -
frig on the street who were endanger-
ed by stones thrown from the wheels
of passing automobiles. While he
would not swear that the stone was
thrown by a passingcar, there was
no doubt in his mind that such was
the case,, and his parting remarks
were that he would obtain a definite
ruling from the court as to who was
to blame in this respect.
The members then settled dawn to
• routine business. Bylaw No. 11 re-
garding nominations, appointment of
poll clerks; and officers was introduc-
ed and read, and passed on motion of
Paisley and Livermore
Councillor Nediger reporting for
the special committee stated that he
had contacted a party for the Christ-
mas tree and that it would be here at
the end of the week. Walker -Cook—
This council will furnish the tree and
ask Public Utilities •Commission to
light same. Carried.
Livermore—Paisley This council
will cooperate with the Lions Club in
furnishing Christmas baskets up to
the sum of $15. Carried.
The relief problem next came •up
for consideration and was introduced
when Reeve Livermore asked about
issuing meal tickets to transients. A
general discussion followed which
brought out some amusing stories in
line with the subject. Mr. Walker
stated ane instance in which a man
came to his home asking for a meal.
He definitely stated that he wanted
meat andpotatoes, but when none
were forthcoming, left in a huff. An,
other chap called twice in; three' weeks
at Glen Cook's. The first time he
was so hungry that he cleaned up all
the potatoes which had been prepar-
ed for the next day's business; The
next time he called he resorted to
glasses as a disguise, but was recog-
nized.
It was brought out that relief of
this kind was being Overdone, and
since the government is trying to
stamp out this kind of thing, pan-
handlers should be discouraged. While
it is a hard thing to, turn away a
hungry man, work is being provided
for able-bodied men in the north, and
as much as possible relief should be
discouraged.
As a fitting climax to the meeting,
Mayor Holmes spoke briefly of the
pleasant associations of the past year
and stated that financially the town
was getting along fine. This year
waterworks debentures amounting to
$53,000 had been paid and; the rate

Bank Manager and Minister
Foil Thugs
A bank manager and a minister
fooled two armed men yesterday who
attempted to steal a $30,000 Interna-
tional Nicicle Company payroll from
the Canadian Bank of Commerce at
Coniston,
Rev. A.P. and Mrs. Addison were
enjoying midnight lunch with the
branch manager, John Graham and
his wife, when the two armed men
burst into the apartment,
"Did you scream;' a reporter ask-
ed Mrs. Addison, who, with Mrs. Gra-
ham, wife of the bank manager, was
tied and R
to gond when the robbers at-
tempted to force Mr: Graham to op-
en a bank vault , containing the
$30,000
Ilirs. Addison, formerly Miss Esther
Trewartha, of Clinton, laughed, "No
we didn't scream. If you've ever been
in a bank robbery, you know that one
just doesn't scream" she answered.
"We were too worried about our hus-
bands. We knew that Mr, Graham
couldn't possibly open the vault of
that bank because there was a time
lock on it, and it was set for 9 o'clock '
neat manning: We were afraid the
robbers wouldn't believe Mr. Graham
when he said he couldn't open the
p
vault, and we didn't know what they
would do to him to make him talk,"
Mrs. Addison added that she believ-
ed the two were amateurs.
"I am quite sure they were only
amateurs on their first job and much
more scared than the rest of u8,"
Mrs. Addison laughingly said. "They
had no soonergone downstairs when
Mrs. Graham and X were ungagged
and untied:'
