The salaries of file county cons- tables, were raised to '$1,2100 :per year with $500 for ,car upkeep plus tele- phone tolls, they to !furnish their own egllip1llen t. The recommendation of the police committee to make bhe salary .of Tra- ffic Officer Lever the saint as the other ceost.tbles caused consideralble discussion. It was pointed out that tis traffic officer 'was paid out of bhe Road 'Commission accounts and that Ile was sometimes on duty the full twenty-four :hours and that he had to cover the whole county. Finally by, a recorded 'vote of '18 to ill, Constable Lever was retained at the same pay as formerly—fifty cents an .hour for nine months of 'the year and 00 cent.: for the three lainter 111,011 1115. The .pnlici!ig of the village of Grand Bend, by the county paying one-third of cost as requested by Reeves Mc- Cann and Ratz, was the subject of an- other debate which resulted in no ac- tion being taken. Reeve !\V•'atson of Stanley maintain- ed vigorously that if the grant was given Grand Bend, Bayfield and other police villages would be entitled to one, The establishment of a police call at Exeter for the convenience of COD - stable Ferguson as requested in 0 motion by Reeves Tuckey and Pass- more. was not acted upon on recotn urvariation u'f the pollee 1 ,nmutte.e.

The shortage of water is an argument in favor of re forestation. There 'was a substantial increase in ;planting trees, the major- ity being 'planted by private individ- uals, 'hen people are conservation - minded, they are a great assistance," stated the speaker. He said sixty young ,people attend- ed the instruction classes at Dungan- non and eighty are enrolled in a sim- ilar class at Belgrave. A survey is being made of the amount of seed grain available.

Finally. no anion 'was taken. Council concurred in the resolution of the county of Grey that the .prem - hent on grade A ;hogs be 12.00 per hog )because of the; greater cost of produc- ing them. 'Concurrence was 'given to resolu- tions from the 'county of Hastings re- garding a '50 per cent. subsidy on all Monies expended 'on ;government ap- proved streets 'be paid ,villages; also to one from Nortleum'berland and Dunham on the ,cutting and sale of •Christmas trees.

FRIDAY Reforestation was given a setback at the concluding session or Hs)ron County Council on Friday afternoon. A motion brought in by Reeves F. Duncan of Morris and S. H. Whit• more of Tuckersmith, to appropriate $2.000 to the esttimates for the pur• nose of reforestation to be used at the discretion of the Agricultural Committee was lost on recorded vote of 10 to 5. Warden Fengan, an advocate of re- forestation at all recent sessions, ex- pressed his keen disappointment in the shelving of the problem. Reeve McNeil was in favor of leav- ing it in abeyance because of the war. He said there was 1'o better system than that the farmers do it themselves, Reeve Brown stated the shortage of Water this year had been great and the condition is getting worse. He would be sorry to see it tabled. "Hospitalization of indigents is, certainly a headache for urban muni- <dpalitles." declared Reeve J. H. Scott, during ;t discussion Iaunc•hed by Reeve Watson, of Stanley. who read a list of the amount: paid by the coun- ty for each municipality, which does not dnehtrdr• the s It a •e paid by s 1 mnuioipttlity.

Council concurred with the recom- mendations of the executive commit- tee that no grants be given to the Huron County Ratepayers' Associa- tion, nor to the Women's Junior In- stitutes. The cause of the' latter was championed by Reeves Grain, Gamble and 'Whitmore, who told of the fine work ddne by the women of these or- ganizations, many of whom are und- ertaking red cross work. By-laws confirming the hueiness of the session were passed and author- ized the borrowing of $100,000 for current expenses; $165.000 for pro- vincial highways: $180,000 for coun- ty roads. The vote on the question of whe- ther or not to transfer County Traffic (Hiker Norman Lever from the road commission to the supervision of the pollee committee and set his salary at the sane level as other county constables, was as follows: For the transfer: Bowman, Brown, Hetherington.

Road construction, $36,839.83; bridge construction. $4,697.15; main- tenance, $82.139.74; new machinery, $15.065.32: machinery repairs, $9,- 800.60; superintendence, $4,600.18. Total, $153,242.65. A reduction was noted in the re- port in dragging costs: Ten miles of bituminous surfaces were laid and those previously done were giving reasonable service. Bight concrete bridges were erected or extended. "The new snow plows put in oper- ation this year on small trucks are giving better results than was ex- pected." the engineer reported, "and to date the work done by them has kept the roads in good condition. The heaviest plowing conditions have not been met as yet on many roads, but enough has been done to indic- ate that such small fast plows are of invaluable asolstanee, and the cost of operation is much less than that -af operating heavier, costlier units.
