Those marked with an * are the
members of the old council, and who
were returned by acclamation.
At the, close of the nominations
Robt. Shortreed, an ex Reeve, was ap-
pointed chairman.
Finlay McCallum was the first
speaker called and created a discus-
sion on the holding back by the coun-
cil of 50% of the school levy, this he
said was done to save interest on a
bank overdraft, He wasn't a candi-
date for reeve, but would seek reelec-
tion to the council. ,
Arthur Wheeler,, the isaext called,
didn't think there was in -z need of
an election, and that in keeping back
half of the school levy all were not
used alike. He stated he would be a
candidate should there be an ,election
but he would not cause one.
Francis Duncan in referrinato the
Road Supt,, said he was a good one
but he was paid well for it, and
thought that the making of tile should
be divided amongst others who need-
ed the work. In his opinion, that to
improve the centre sideroad would be
too expensive. He would be a can-
didate for reelection.
Edward Bryans commended the tax
collector for the efficient manner in
which his books were kept There
wasn't a great deal of work being
done on the roads, but he thought
they were doing all that the people
could pay for, and that the Road Supt
should be present to answer questions
regarding his work. The cost of the
crushing and delivering the gravel
was 33c a yard,
