Butt appeared be- fore counetl as a ratepayer to give her views about establishing a board to take aver Maitland Bank Cemetery by the town. She said it would be unfair to tax the ratepayers to .support the ea sn.ete'ry. Many ratepayers, like herself, have no one buried in Maitlandbank, but are or have ,contributed to one or more other cemeteries 'in which there are family plots. I should not have to contribute also to Maitlandbank Cemetery through m+y taxes, She said. Mrs. Butt contended that the costs should be borne by those who use a cemetery.

A 5 -year-old boy is too old for a wading pool, he said. Kids over eight seldom go near a wading pool, The 'parks committee consist- ing of Councillors Cardno, Rivers and Turnbull will mneet next week with the Kinsmen to further study the project. .Reeve 03011 ,reported nothing new for relief. .Councillor Rivers'said an inves- tigation 4s under way to find •out Who drained the water out•ef the tank •on the are truck.

The fire .hall is locked but firemen sometimes break the glass to get the key. Mayor Christie said there had been .criticism that eight fh•emen 'went to the fire at Brucefield, leaving only one nran available to answer a second call while they were away. He ,had picked up a couple of volunteers •on the street and taken' .the truck to rl+lginondviile. It was understood only Roue men are supposed to go out .on the rural truck. The .Mayor thought the firemen Should see that some are left to protect the town. Same agree- ment is needed, he thought. Councillor Turnbull had left word lie had nothing to report as northing further had been receiv- ed from the Water Resources. Permission was given the -Sup- ertest service station to connect to the sewer at the manhole. on the north Bide of tGoderich street. Detailed floor plans of the ter- mer shoe' factory were shown- to council. They had been obtained by the industrial comnhittee and were prepared by Mr. DeGn-oot of Bell . Industries, .A. request by James 'Wallace to connect to town water at his lot in Egmondvtlle bordering on Seaforth, was granted. The financial report revealed that a grant in lieu of taxes on the post office building for last ,years amounts to $1,898.00, an .in- crease of - nearly '$400 aver the preview; year. • Building permits were approv- ed to J. T. Atkinson for garage and poroh,.;$1,100; to B. F. Chris- tie, •dismantling barn and build- ing garage, $500. The police report showed the usual grist of ,business. The pol- ice car had been driven over ,250b ;miles, of which 1,350 was town patrolling, balance to bring back a prisoner. A setter from Mddwestenn On- tario Development _Assn. invited councillors to a meeting at .Strata ford April 29th. ' The usual 'bylaw granting a 10 mill rebate on farm lands in the. municipality was passed. Councillor Habkirk said there' were objections to the town ponce attending rural fires at town ex- pense. The police • -committee were instructed to arrange that the police remain within the town limits unless there is a definite request.

Exeter cem- etery is 95 years old and has nee- er cost the ratepayers of that town a cent, Mrs, Butt pointed out, not even when ,they built a mausolenln several'years ago, It is 'a beautiful cemetery, she told council. Councillor William Ball said Clinton cemetery was not •naw costing their ratepayers four (mills, that was only when a mausoleum was erected. The tax rate is now only a fraction of a' mill at Clinton for the cemetery. He understood Exeter cemetery rates had always been, double the (rates of other cemeteries: Mrs. Butt replied that was all right. It is the lot owners who should pay, not outsiders. Dr. Brady outlined the circum- stances leading to council's deci- sion to take over Maitland Bank Cemetery. Mfrs. Butt said they should eget the money from lot owners. "There are 'lots of people in town feel as I de, but are too ti- mid to say so," Mrs. (Butt 'told council, Mayor Christie said several temporary burials had to be matte at Mitchell mausoleum .this win- ter due to lack of facilities here. He did not think a five mill rate would be necessary to finance the cemetery. The present funds can be used for a mausoleum, he said. Dr. Brady said under the law the cemetery neo-`utd-revert to Mc- Killop township when Northside' Church gives it up. unless Sea - forth takes it over. The town.
