Meeting, '- ,'1; he regular monthly meeting of the Village Coun- cil was held on Monday evening with all the members present, The min- utesof the last meeting were read and adopted on motion of Petty' and Sangster, The court for the revision of the assessment roll will be held on Monday evening, May 28 at 8 o'clock, • A number of accounts were presented and ordered paid, Councillor ,Petty brought up the matter of a grant to the Orangemen, for their celebration on July 12, it was decided to give the Orangemen $50. Bylaw No. 6 was given its first, second and third read- ing appointing George Iludson as a special officer to enforce the Liquor Control Act in the village. The Council are determined to have the act enforced and by hawing their own officer all fines will remain in the vil- lage instead of being taken ant, The natter of the Black Creek drain as- sessment was discussed and an ap- peal Will be entered against the as- sessment. The Clerk was instructed to write to the Ontario Forestry. Branch about getting some' young trees for the park. The matter of oil- ing the streets was taken up. Some of the conucil are not in favor of oiling the streets this year, but using the money (about $500 it cost last year) and adding $500 more to it, and spend- ing $1,000 in gravel which would put the streets in good shape. The street committee was instructed to secure a grader, get the streets m good shape as soon as possible and to fill any holes up with gravel, The Cleric was instructed to write to the 'County En- gineer about having a car of oil put off at Hensall so that we could take out what we need as there will no doubt be some oil used, The Reeve brought up the matter of better street lighting and said that an- other row of lights could be run up on the north side of King street and the 100 -candle power lights could be used on both sides and distribute the light better on the street instead of having 200 candle-power lights on one side. The cost would be the same and there would be no extra cost to the ratepayer, As the Hydro Commission has plenty of funds on hand the Reeve suggested that the 'lights on the south side of King street be lowered a foot or eighteen inches, and on the north side suitable poles, possibly iron, and suitable brackets and clear glass globes could be secured which would give our street a splendid ap- pearance. The Reeve said he would take the matter up with the Hydro Commission this creek, and as there will be a_ meeting in town on Friday evening on the Black Creek drain matter, and et which the Council will he represented, the matter will be again discussed. The meeting then adjourned.
