Municipal Franchise, Not Counted (The Municipal World) The assessor is required to enter the letters M.F.N.C. opposite cer- tain pensions' names in the assess- ment roll and these letters follow the name wthen the clerk makes the entry in the voters' list. To many persons the meaning of these let- ters is obscure, and reference to several statutes is necessary to ob- tain .the definition. The letters stand for the words "municipal franchise, not counted" and mean that the person is entitled to vote at municipal elections but is not to be counted in deciding whether the municipality is entitled to a deputy reeve for representation in the county council. The letters are to be entered in column 5 of the assessment roll after the names of persons who are municipal electors by reason of be- ing the husband or wife of the person rated as owner or tenant of land as provided by The Municipal Act, or by reason of being the wife of a farmer's son, or a farmer's daughter or farmer's sister. See Assessment Act (R.S.O., 1950, chap- ter 24), section 16 (2), column 5, and Voters' Lists Act (chapter 414) section 7 (10). In entering the name of an own- er or tenant in the assessment roll the assessor is to bracket with it the name of the wife or husband. Similarly the wife of a farmer's son is to be bracketed with him as pro- vided by section 16 (1) (h) and (k), Assessment Act. Under Section 58 (1) (d) of The Municipal Act (R.S.O. 19'50, chapter 243), the following persons who are otherwise qualified are entitled, among others, to be entered in the voters' list to vote at municipal elections: A person who is the wife or husband of a person suf- ficiently rated for land as an own- er or tenant, or who is entered or entitled. to be entered on such roll as a farmer's son, farmer's daugh- ter or farmer's sister or who is the wife of a person who is enter- ed or was entitled to be entered on the roll as a farmer's son. Section 54 of The Municipal Act. provides that a town (not being a township in a county, is each en- titled to a deputy reeve where it has more than 1,000 municipal elec- tors. The number of municipal electors is to be determined by the last reyised voters' listbut in counting the names, the name of same person is not to be counted more than once, and the name of a person who is entered in the list with the letters M.F.N.C. following hit or her name is not to be count- ed. (It should be noted that these letters are not entered . after the name of a farmer's son, as such names are to be counted). In a county council, where a local fnuniclpality (has -more than 2,000 and not more than 3,000 numieipai onstance IlasSuccessfulBazair 4, very suecessful bazaar We-.$ (held in aid of the Geldea ,tj>glte Mission Band of font; ice Church on Tuesday, March 27, The ladies of the W.A. and W.M.S. were en- tertained ntertained as their guests. Prior to the bazaar a 'program took place, opening with Hymn 104, accompan- ied ecompanied by Janet McGregor. The Scrip- ture lesson, Psalm 714, was read by Ronnie Jewitt, followed by , an in- teresting story read by Joyce Buch- anan. An instrumental by Marilyn Taylor was thoroughly enjoyed, af- ter which Joyce Jewitt sang "Some- one is Waiting,For Someone." Joy Montgomery gave a reading, fol- lowed by an instrumental by Mur - lel Dale. Charlie MacGregor and Bobby Philips took up the collec- tion, and the •meeting closed with Hymn 605. Following the bazaar, which was conducted by the girls of the Mis- sion Band, Mrs. Peter Lindsay led in prayer. The boys of the Mission Bund served lunch, and a vote of thanks was moved by Mrs. D. Mill - son to the Mission Band leader, Mrs. Frank Riley, and the Mission Band. The proceeds of the bazaar, collection and candy amounted to about $25:00. electors (counted as above) the reeve of that municipality has an additional vote, and if the munici- pality has mdre than 3,000 electors the deputy reeve also has an addi- tional vote, as provided by section 18, Municipal Act. It will be seen from the forego - lite. that the entry of the letters M F.N.C. opposite names in the rsscs-nrent roll and in the voters' list is most important. For the qualifications of persons as farmers' sons, farmers' daugh- ters, and farmers' sisters reference should be made to section 21, As- sessment Act (R.S.O. 1950, chapter 24). It should be noted that in cities and separatedtowns it is not nec- essary to enter the letters M.F.N.C. after persons' names (see section 18, Assessment Act) as these mun- icipalities do not have representa- tion in a county council. It is sug- gested that, although the law does not so provide, that the letters M.F. only should be used in these mun- icipalities and also in municipali- ties in district. This will distin- guish these persons in the voters' list from those entitled to vote on money by-laws. G. A.

Phone 103 - Nights 133 Pet Aches and Pains After middle age, many people worry about such diseases as can- cer, heart conditions, high blood pressure and diabetes, translating the most simple aches into symp- toms of serious disease. Instead of worrying themselves into ill -health, they should be well advised to see a doctor at the outset. His diag- nosis can put a troubled mind at ease or prescribe treatment for whatever illness may exist. Backward or Handicapped? A obild who appears dull and backward at school should be giv- en a thorough medical examina- tion, with particular attention to his eyes and ears. Often, that ap- parent slowness to learn may be. due to impaired hearing or sight and, since the child does not know that he is not hearing or seeing normally, he cannot explain his trouble. No child should be un- justly branded slow or retarded— the doctor may find that, apart from this handicap, the youngster is basically bright and intelligent. That Bubbling Brook With the spring thaw, rivers and streams are flooded with surface washings which may cause pollu- tion. Many of these streams sup- ply the drinking water of villages and farms, so the danger of con- tamination is serious. The answer to the problem is filtration of the water. A home filtration plant is not necessarily an expensive or elaborate project and can be con- structed at reasonable cost. Infor- mation on making a filter for your home use may be obtained free of charge from provincial health de- partments. Food Fancies When Junior announces that be doesn't like, doesn't want and, moreover, has no intention of eat- ing some certain food, don't try to force him to eat it. If it is a nec- essary part of his diet, try dis- guising it in combination with some other food or with different flavoqring and coloring. Sometime when. he is particularly hungry, leave a small portion of the reject- ed food at hand and he'll probably eat it By not making an issue of the matter you leave the way clear for a change of mind and appe- tite. ppe- tite.

Fifty-two Vacations a Year By using every week -end as a miniture holiday, even if it only lasts a few hours, the busy office or factory worker can gain mental and physical recreation and added vigor for the coming week's work. Take a bus or car out to the town or city limits and walk in the coun- try—in winter, ski or snowshoe, so long as yon get out into the clean, fresh air. Take up photography or some branch of nature study to add incentive and lasting interest to your trips.
