HURON Q�C;VUN`i: Y CQU .c II, (Continued froii'i page,, s1x) of E, lj, Klopp and C. A. Robertson that this county council pass a by- law in conformity with '12,S.Q,'399s,sl 72,' regarding stock running at large on public highways we recommend that this be done, and the clerk have a bylaw prepared to present at the. January meeting. The finance coniniittee reeouanaet d - ed the payment of a number of ;ac- counts; that the account of A. 'White- side for telephone exchange; amount- ing to $27, be re;Ecrred to the Board of Criminal Audit; and that the ac- count of C. A. Reid for stenographic 'service, amounting to $462, be refer- red back ,and that Mr' Reid be asked to furnish an iteinized statement' of the work in his department; The executive committee reported as follows: °Re request of Mrs. Grif- fin, Nov. 26t11, for $51o,33, we re,com- mend no 'action, as this Matter., was fully discussed and disposed of at our June session, and that this.account be sent to the Province with pzplana- tioti, Re motion of H. J. A..12acEwen and Mr.. McNibbon, favoring a gra it of : $70o to the Children's Shelter, we recommend that a `grant of $soo be given. Re motion of O. Ginrt and. J. Hayes that anallowance of $120 he made • to the Mothers' Allowance Board for Huron County, to be divid- ed as follows: Chairman, $45; secre- tary, ` $3o; and three. members $15 each, we. recommend -that this a:llow- anee: `be given.' Re motion of A. I-1, Neeb and W. D, Sanderson that the warden and clerk having.', attended the Wardens' Conference at Toronto, recently, be paid their .fare and ex- penses, which amount to $35, we recommend that the same be. paid, Re motion of J. W. McKibboir and Thos. Inglis that $zoo be granted ' our county treasurer to assist at this time in securing extrahelp required we recommend that $5o be given. The property committee reported as follows: i. We` have inspected the office and vault • equipment of the local court registrar Mr. D. Mad- Donald and we find that the vault ar- rangements are lamentably in- adequate for the filing and storing of the rnany valuab:h legal papers, books and documents which have been. accumulating for many years past. In case of fire, these books and documents could never be re- placed, and the loss and inconveni- ence in such an event would be in- calculable. We therefore cannot too strongly urge the council to obtain the advice of a competent architect or expert in vault and fireproof equip- ment : and, have plans prepared for increased accommodation in .his -re- spect, at the earliest moment possible. Re request froin the matron of the Children's Shelter for some additional `linoleum and neededrepairs, we rec- ommend that the request be granted. We would also commend Mrs. Wil -son for the splendid condition in which we found all matters at the Shelter. Her good judgment and -discretion is _ much appreciated. by your committee, Re report of the jailer, we would like to express our appreciation of the very satisfactory reports which: have been presented and the economical manlier in which all departments at 'the jai:i are being managed. Your committee made a very thorough inspection :.of the building and find everything in ex- „cellent condition.. The rooms and cells are spotlessly clean and the heating and cooking arrangements are, particularly good, while the satis- factory ventilation'. is especially noted, A 'letter from. the Red Jacket Coal and Coke Co., re supply of coal in the county buildings here, we would recommend' that, as our storagecapa- city cap a- city is So limited, we continue to btty from local coal merchants so long as the price and quality are satisfactory. We would also ask:that your com- mittee be empowered to make some needed repairs at` the registry office as _requested ' by the inspector of registry offices. Also that some small repairs to locks and furniture be made in the office of the cotint:y judge. 'We also recommend that ail old chairs and junk be removed from the petit jury room and that proper. ventilation, of this room be arranged for.
