plained by. County Engineer Patter-
son that the $14,000 rebates will be
paid up. Municipalities may pass . by-
laws holding these for another year
and still be subsidized. -
Report of the county road commis-
cion carried as follows: The county
road's system has been inspected 'gen-
erally by your commission and. it is
found' that curtailed maintenance and
construction since the war started has
left most" of our gravel roads with in-
sufficient surfacing.
The snow road expenditure was
much lower this year, the amount of
• 46,623.08 having been spent for that
purpose:
An order has been placed for a
power mower, but it is uncertain if
the required permits or machines will
be available:
The workmen in the shop have con-
structed a ,trailer for moving 'heavy
equipment. It is proving very useful.
Calcium chloride is more easily ob-
tained and it is expected Matt more
will be applied this year.

"It's an absolute. untruth.," hotly de-
elared' -Reeve J. J. Evans, of Wing-
/ann. during thedying hours of . the
final 'session of county' council when
Reeve N. R. Dorrance, 1lieKillop, ask
ed. if .a rumor that 'Oltingham General
Hospital, whicli-•lbas been granted:$25,-
000 towards its 'buildings fund; had
received a $40,000 bequest, from an
wage and had not made it knownto
council.
Even after this, forthright denial
Reeve Dorrance persisted in his ques-
tioning and /'drew from Reeve Evans
an explanation that a bequest had
been received, but it was for hospital
equipment and not for building pur-
poses. Moreover it was nothing like
$40,000.
Imm.edaately after'' this exchange;
council passed a motion that the first
payment of $20,000 be made to Wing -,
Hospital -when the con-
tract' was signed as set out in the
',original motion. One reeve said he
had information 'that --there Was little
likelihood of the new wing on Wing -
ham Hospital being started this year.
The remaining $5,000:of, the grant fs
to be paid over on completion.
Hospital hospitalization and nurses
schemes highlighted the session, and
consumed 'hours. of debate, but out of
it all came • the'setting up of an anu-
nual fund •of $27,130 for these pur-
poses and the appointment of a health
committee to administer the fund.
This committee is composed of Dente
ty Reeve D. D. Mooney -of, Goderich
(chairman), Reeves •'Hugh'1. Berry, of
Usborne; J. V. Daly, df' Seeforth; B.
W. Tuckey, of Exeter, anis R. J. Bow-
man, of Brussels: As a resuit`-iof this'
legislation, all rural; schools are now
to be served , by travelling school
nurses. The ultimate aim is to im-
prove the health of the young genera;
tion and to correct the Startling sit-
uation revealed in the abnormal num-
ber,or military` rejects; in the present
war.
The executive committee reported
"no action" on the requests of Gode-
rich, (ilinton and Seaforth hospitals
for special grants aggregating $3,400:'))
Reeve Baker and Deputy Reeve
Mooney, of Goderilh, Reeves Falcon-
er, of Clinton, and' Daly, of Seaforth,
immediately sprang into action and
the debate 'eras lively..
Reeve Tuckey, 'of Exeter, said that
relations between the county' council
and Huron hospitals had never been,
too good. because it was felt that
bospitals .had been reluctant .in dis-
closing the true state of their alnanc-
es. Three years ago, council, requir-
ed that hospitals must submit an audi-
tor's statement and that the auditor
must be a chartered accountant. It
was stated that even now a 'state-
ment was riot forthcoming' from Scott
Memorial Hospital, Seaforth, and that
the 19.44 grant was being held up.
Rural members 'led by Reeves Frayne
and Dorrance brought out that farm-
ers and farm hands were 'mighty
scarce, • just as were nurses, yet there
was no demand for an. eight-hour day
from the farmer. It was said that
the' report on Goderich Hospital' was
incomplete as it did net set out the
many endowment funds.
These and many other points were
brought out in committee debate. A.
motion that the grants be made was
defeated by a standing vote, but an-
other motion referring the requests
to the health committee with power
to deal with them as the : committee
saw fit was finally carried .
• Bowlding......
(Continued from Page 1.)
June Bugs are reading this column.
The pins haven't turned up yet.
Where, oh where, can they be?
Henry Giggins is ,an ardent bowler.
He. thlks bowling 'til he's. blue..in•.thex
face. He's rather late every year in
starting toy bowl though. Every time
he is called up to bowl, he just can't
seem" to make up his mind. Either
Ms Aunt Susie is coming, or the bugs
are getting at his potatoes, or there's
new neighbors moving in and he has
to see that they get settled. But
along about the time when" bowling
is almost over for the season, who
puts up a kick about closing the
greens?, ,You guessed it: Henry Lig-
gins. The next time you get a call
'to bowl, think about your potato bugs,
but remember Henry .Giggins. •
The first open tournament of the
season"•was held on Monday evening.
The weatherman wasn't very pleas-
ant about it, but the bowlers braved
adverse ,conditions and had a good
time. _
