The Automatic Telephone Co. of Ca-
nada, made application for the exclu-
ive right to erect and maintain a tele -
hone system in town, offering to give
the town a percentage of the revenue
derived.
Mayor McTaggart stated that it
would be unjust to grant any company
an exclusive privilege of this kind; the
Bell Co. had invested its money and
given the people a fairly satisfactory
service, and if the new company pos-
sessed the superior facilities that it
claimed, let them erect their lines and
they would soon crowd the ether out
of business. On motion the matter
was referred to the Street Committee.
On motion of Coun. Kennedy, sec.
by Coun. Armstrong, Mr Doherty was
appointed High School Trustee, in
place of Mr H. Foster, whose term has
expired.
On motion of Coun. McMurchie, sec.
by Coun. Kennedy. Mr John McGarva
was appointed auditor. Mayor Mc-
Taggart appointed Mr P. Cantelon, jr.,
as the second auditor, to receive 10
each for their services.
Mayor McTaggart thought that as
the vote on the cow question had been
so decisive, the By-law Committee
should be instructed to prepare a by-
law dealing with the question, and
submit it at the next meeting of the
Council. On motion of Coun. Arm-
strong, sec. by Coun. Jones, the com-
mittee was so instructed.
Moved by Reeve McMurchie, sec. by
Deputy -Reeve Kennedy, that the Clerk
be instructed to advertise in the Globe

on Saturday night from the North
West, much to the surprise of his

count of the great snow storm. Quite

churches, and the Rev. Mr Acheson
gave the annual address at the W.F.
M. meeting; Mr B. R. Higgins ably oc-
cupied the chair on that evening; the
music by the choir, as well as Mr Ache -
son's address, was excellent. The ser-
vice in the Methodist church will be at
6.30 next Sunday, 22nd, when Rev. Mr

most cordially all those who help to
make the NEW ERA so bright every

overlooked, as it may be in the rush of

wish to send more, but repeat the re-
quest, as we have no desire to lose the
services of a solitary one of our valued
helpers.

WHERE -ARE YOU
MOVING TO?
We are going to Chippewa
Co., Michigan, near Sault Ste
Marie.
Why do you go there ?
Well, we have five boys,
we have sold the farm for $5;-
000. We can buy 640 acres
between Pickford and the Rail-
road Station at Reedyard, and
have a good farm for each of
the boys and have money left.
What can a renter do there?
He can buy a farm on five
years time, and pay for it with
one fourth of the money he
would pay for rents in that
time, and own his his home.
Is it good 1andi
As good as any in Huron Co. Ex-
cellent for Oats, Peas, Wheat, Clover,
Timothy, Potatoes and all kinds of
roots. Prices are as good as any on
the lakes, owing to the nearness of
the mines and lumber woods to the
westward,
What class of people live there 1
They are nearly all from Huron
Co. You meet there so many old
neighbors that you can hardly be-
lieve'you have left home.
I want to see that land. Who has
it for sale? Inquire of
