The Clerk presented a detailed stunniery of the receipts and expend- itures for the year, and after consid- erable discussion By -Law Na. 978 was passed fixing the tax rate at so mills. This rate is somewhat higher than last year, the increase being account- ed for by a heavier county rate, and the action of the Connell in wiping off an overdraft of $1,200 from last year, Which represents one mill.

Beautify Your Home or Business Place with Bunting and Flowers Wingham's contribution to Con- federation Jubilee will be a truly sin- cere and appropriate one, if the citi- zens generally grasp the vision and intention, of the town fathers and the others behind the aroject. It is not the intention to make, a• big. splash of a day's sports or similar oelebra- tion, but rather to evidence the peo- ple's genuine appreciation of this oc- casion by beantifying the streetsarlec- orating the business places, the many attractive homes and pretty cottages. You are just an ordinary average' citizen, possessed of a commendable amount of civic pride, and properly jealous of the reputation your town has with the rest of the country. Now, can you show a little bit of civic and patriotic loyalty for a few days next week, June 30 to July 4, in mak- ing the streets of Wingham a blaze of color with flags and bunting, ev- ergreens and flowers. Of course, you will help. The impression given to the visitors motoring through will not be one bit less satisfying or ap- preciative, than the knowledge to the citizens generally that a good work has been properly done.
