Things are very quiet this year in
municipal affairs and the 1928 coun
cil 'will very likely return by allclam-
ation. Everything in the village is
in good 'shape this year and as the
Reeve and council have proved very
capable their is no demand for an
election. As the Reeve has already
fought two elections and has only
held the seat 10 months it would
only be a spirit of fair play to re
turn him this year by acclamation.

There is this difference between a

the one is always pleased in the good,
