The ArewelYarden
Me. George H. Elliatt, Reeve of

neCounty fee 194 at the, January
( teeSseot of the :Coenty Council, which

the Clinton council for the past sev-
en .yearsand for five Years -bee filled
the officeof Reeve and been a mem-
ber of the °aunty Council.
• A farmer as well as a town resie
•rie•t, he is Widely kaoNln in the comer
ter, and hear' always en; a popular
ineneher of the council over which he
now presides as Warden.
new Warden possesses a strild

ecenmandeng grasp of ebanty affaie,
and he will fel theaciffice with credit
to hieneelf and advantage to the
coamty.
The Snow Plows on the
Highwaps
-Paiters in the vicinity of 'Midland
are compearining bitterly about the
• •• condition of the highways in .that
northern exert of the Provinte.
"Not that etere is too mach sem,

aue.h ti,' depth of snow in, that dis-
trict thaleePfarmer's only means of
• transport is by cutler air eleighee -
That is on all roads except the
Provincial Highway, where the snow
plows keep the pavement clear down
to the cement. The fernier can get
frons his home to the highway, but he
eanget no finether.
The same complaint was raised in
• this district et few years ago, when
the highway Wee first built. Fortu-
roatelyeduring the past three benforer
Pears this distrietehas had very little
sow, et bare highway helped eather
thiandhindred fame traffic.

• - •The eemene dway is plenty wide

-lined in that condition.
aces quite poseibee to believe that
greiset roads on each side of the
pavement would ih winter, in some
deed:riots, and at cettain periods in
others, entail considerable additional
• expenditure, but et the same time,
the fact should not be lost sight of
that the farmers paid at least as
much to 'build the highways as the
Melee ancLpays as much to main-
tain Wein bath in winter and sum.
n.er as does the car driver.
Under' these Mecumtances, we do
root believe the, farmer is asking too
Tore& when he asks for equal con-
sideraton.

Beauty is Ex-ensive
Thomas L. Willisins, a cosmetics
manufacturer, told a divisional meet-
ing of the American 'Coameticians'
Assoiation in Chicago this week that
' women will spend $2,000,000,000 dur-
ing 1934 for beatity services.
(Beauty at two billions of dollars
per year looks to be a little expen-
sive, bat then, of course, that is
• etemerican beauty.

When tete Peetion of the byelaw
dealing with aolleetione wae reached
councillor einaired about the dog
tax. :Mr. Raig-gare eaggested that
the dog tax should not be collected
•separately but should be included in
the tax bili. "You are losing money
'rn -the dogs right now," pointed out
ee•e solicitor.
Council diseuseed the matter but it
was felt if the deg tax was included
le the tax ibill it would be against the
oroperty and •rright prove enfairain
;MD& eases. The by-law was read
'he first time on motion ol Council-
lors Hudson and R. Eberhart.
Council" proceeded to discuss the
livision of the .pelice work.
"If the night nean came on at 4
rem. hecould collect taxes," Council-
lor L. 'Mei-hart thought
"Who is going to •cheek the trans-
ient traders? Are the merchant's tax-
es not worth anything?" asked Coma
eillor Broderiek.
'We watt a street man. You can't
combine the jobs."
;Chief Ryan aeked to be %lowed 'to
make a few renearks. "Su ss far
as I'm concert -let'," agreed Ceemeillor
L. Eberhart.
• \Chief Ryan stated he lied heard
objections about his wearing his uni-
form in the day time but said that
during 1933 he had never worn his
uniform clutiag the dey unless on
court days.
"I'm not talkine about your uni-
form. Weren't you relieved af street
duties at noon emeedeed Copaciller L.
Eberhart.
"Maybe I 'had better ex -plain this,"
P.:aid the •Chief, and he reviewed the
agreement he bad with last year's
council.
Councillor Belton: "Let's •get on."
Cranicillor L. Eleerhart objected that
the advertisement asking far applica-
tions was not the scene as the motion
passed at the !eat council.
"But the minutes have beenread
and passed," interrupted Mayor Seebe
erland.
"The motion: wasn't the same., Do
Yeru hold youe „council meeting -4 on
the street?" continued Councillor L.
Eberhart, objectieg, to the bade -sieve
of tenders for teaming in the adver-
tisement. •
Reeve Crosier explained how the
teaming had come to be included. It
ca,me under the Street Coramettee,"
he said.
;Councillor Bolton; "What about
that motion?"
!Mayor 'Sutherland then read a mo -
by lCountillors Bolteti and 3olun-
son, "that By-law 353 for the town
of !Seabee% for, 1934 be read a second
ime and blanks filled."
:Council resolved itself into a cone
mittee of the whole to discus ••apd
eointmenee and ealaries-on motion of
Councillors Bolton and' Broderick.
Mayor Sutherland announced the
eorrenittee of the whole -would meet
in the Fire Hall and requested the
spectators to remain seated. The.
arum:3111°es then left the council cham-
ber for tbeir secret meeting.
It took the committee nearly two
and a half hours to agree on a re -
ort and it was nearly 11.30 when i.
returned to the council chamber.
A motiefie by Councillors Hudson
and R. W. Eberhart extended the
time .of the meeting.
That the objections of Councillor
Louis Eberhart re tenders for team-
ing and snow plowing, which he had
been voicing earlier in the nieeting,
had been ironed but in the secret
committee of the whole meeting, was
evidenced by a motion introduced by
Councillors Hudson and Eberhart and
passed by Council. It read: "Thait
the snow plowing and street team
work be left in the hands of the
Street Co-nitenittee."
The report of the corrimittee of the
whole was read ley Clerk Wilson and
adopted art motion of Councillors Bol-
ton and R. W. Eberhart.
It 'being ceheraty to Bylaw No. 9,
of the town to passby-laws through
all readings in one meeting, the by-
law was suspended for the 'meeting
on motion of Councillors Louis Eber-
hart and T. Johieso-n.
Bylaw 353, for 1934, was given its
`bird reading and finally passed on
aletion orf Councillor Broderick and

"The Farewell"
It may net be generally known but
it was Burns' desire, frequently ex-
pressed, to emigrate from Scotland,
and he several times had the full in-

other of the British Colonies. This
