Library Board Meeting.—The Her - &all Public Library Board met for its first rneetmg on Monday evening. Those present were Reeve Higgins, Mrs. Henry Arnold, Mr. Geo, Rol- lick, Mr. Alf. Clark, Mr. Raye Mc- Art11111;4011(1 .Miss Greta MciNaughton, librarian and secretary -treasurer 'of the Board.Mr. Fred Simmons and Mr. Davis were absent through ill- ness. The minutes of •the last meet- ing,were reed on motion of Mr. Rol- lick and Mr, Clark. Miss MoNengh- ton, the librarian, who is also secre- taryttreasurer for the Board, gave, a splendid review of _the work done last year. The Board finished, the year with $110 in the treasury, purchhsed 207 new books and lent out during the year over 6,000 books, about double what it was two years ago.- Owing to the splendid growth of the library, something will ,have to ,be done to make more room as .the present lib- rary room is far too srnah to meet the needs of a growing library. Messrs. Davis, Follick, Clark aied McArthur were appointed a committee to meet the council at the next*cauncil meet- ing to talk the matter over of secur- ing larger quarters. It wee suggested that the reading room, which is now used as a cloak room and is a fine large room, be taken over for library 'purposes and the present library room be used as a cloak room. ;Very little alteration will be needed and the library board would have plenty of room for years to come. The new of- ficers of the Board for the year will be: Chairman Reeve Higgins;- secy.- treaso tiss 3.,(ciNaughton; book pur- chasing committee, Mrs. Arnold, Mr. Davis and Mr. Follick. Miss McNaughton was again re- engaged as librarian at the seme sal- ary as last year. The secretary was instructed to write to Mr. Simmons, expressing the sympathy of the Board to him in his recent illness and hop- ing for a epeedy recovery, The meet- ing then adjourned to meet again in February. The Young People of the United Church held their meeting on Monday evening with Mrs. Henry Phile in charge of the meetiag. Scripture was read by Miss Bella Sneak and a piano selection was given by Miss Greta Lammie. The topic was given by Miss Alva Shaddick, Hydro Meeting.—The regular meet- ing of the local hydro coinmission was held on 'Tuesday evening last with all the members present. Reeve Higgins was re-elected chairman of the board for the year and Mr. Rennie secretary. Mr. John P'assmore was re-engaged for ariother year to manage the plant. A number of improvements were talk- ed over and some will be carried into effect immediately. The metres for domestic lighting will in future be read once every two months and pay- able every two inonths. The next payment for domestic lighting for the months of January and February will be made on the 15th of March. :As the plant is again beginning to accu- mulate quite a sum, of money, rate re- duction will be discussed at the next meeting and it is hoped that a sub- stantial reductiota will be made. The manager, Mr. Passmore, was instruct- ed to read all metres himself. A num- ber of accounte were presented and tartiered paid and the meeting then ad- journed to meet again the first week in February. Our library board is making a move in the right direction in making an ef- fort to secure more room in the pub- lic library. There is a demand in the village for a better library as the in- creasing volume of books loaned out sham and in its present crbwded con- dition there is no room for more books and with half a dozen people in the room it is crowded. The reading room would make a splendid room for the purpose, large and well ventilated, and could be put in good shape at very little cost. The Young People of the United Church held their meeting on Monday evening with quite a number present. The meetiug was presided over by Mr. Ferris 'Cantelon. Mr. arid Mrs. Phile rendered a very pleasing vocal duet after which Miss Gladys Luker gave a readieg followed by a read-, ing by Miss M.

Forbes, Rober Lawson. The above is the statement issued in the county papers last vv -eek by Messrs. Ernest Adams, James Leiper, Herbert Ifogridge, James Forbes and Robert Lawsoo, The following is My reply to that financial statement: Taking their figures, as published last week, of the balances on hand at the close of the years 1921-2-3-4, during which years I was Reeve, it shows the ex- cellent financial standing of the Township for these years. La 1925 Mr. Clarke was Reeve. I was returned again in 1926 and at the close of the year, the balance on hand. as shown by the statement, Was $2,462.02. In addition to this balance there was a sum of $2,651 owing to the town- ship from parties benefited by the I-Iarlock Drain branches A and B. From this amount, however, was to be deducted the sum of $952 that was owing Mr. Stevenson. the contractor, and also a further sum of $450 owing Mr. Gaffney, the sub -contractor, leaving a cash balance due the township, at the close of that year, $1249. In addition that year, there was due the township from lvLorris, the sum of $498.80, from the Bowes drain and there was a further additional -sum in unpaid taxes for 1926 of $468.415. This makes the total surplus of the Township at the close of 1926, $4678.27. .Notwithstanding that there was a balance of $4,678.27 at the close of 1926, and that these sums .owing on drains and unpaid taxes were collected in 1927- 28, you will notice by their own statement, that the balance at the end of 1927 had fallen to the sum of $651.50. In 1928, by the same statement, they claim a balance of $141.38, This, I claim, is an incorrect .statement, and further, I claim the sum of $141.38 was actually a deficit. In addition to this deficit, there was a boundary account owing McKillop for that year of $280; an account owing ;to Goderich township. of 0, and a further sum of $952 owing to the contractor, Mr. Stevenson, making a total deficit of $1,653.38 for the year. In 1929 their statement claims a balance on hand of $4,417. This, I claim., is another incorrect statement, this sum being also a deficit. ;My proof dor stating this was a deficit is the fact that at the first meeting of ,council held on !January 13Ith, 1930, the council had to pass a by-law to bor- row money, and 1 'had to -sign a note for $5,000 to straighten up with the 13ank for last year's business, and be,sides we owe e debenture debt for the crusher of $2,864:80. This mdans that under the present financial conditions of the township, it will be necessary to levy a•special rate of 2 mills or more to again get on solid ground. In my first statement, J said if the councillors would only co-operate with me in figuring the estimates a little closer, without injuring the township, I hoped we would be able to get back to solid ,ground without • raising the tax rate materially. It would be better for these men, who published this statement last week, if they would hold a second meeting and look over !he books more carefully to find out their own mistakes, before they asked the ratepayers to inspect them. In reference to their other statements, 2 could give the ratepayers a good deal more information, if it is necessary. MAT.
